naruse extended an extremely kind offer, so if you intend on using their upcoming general portrait pack, you can expect to run into villagers who look like luuga every now and again!

35 years without bolsheviks and you have regressed to barbarism.
The grind culture that birthed many Big Tech companies from Google to Amazon is back.

As the AI race heats up, startups are promoting hardcore cultures like “996,” or working 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week.
Why these companies insist on a 72-hour work week

Worst of all, their resentment is built out of curiousity.
They want to know, and they hate me for knowing.
We need to put Russia (and Armenia, and Ukraine, and everything) on HRT again. Repression is terrible for your soul.

Lesbians want mechanic lesbians specifically when they're the loli one from Nikke who is older than most of the cast and acts like a deeply irritable old woman and can't type for shit and constantly calls you greenhorn and she's in a skintight bodysuit and she howls like a dog in fights.

This is a very good comment in this screenshot

Something I would add onto it is

So much of the sex-negative feminists you see online that fell for a right-wing psyop a decade ago

Do not realize how many of the stuff they complain about in anime... was made by women as self-expression

every time one of these wastrel losers opens their mouth to whine and wheedle that men simply naturally "need" to be the boss of women and fathers simply "need" to be the masters of the home it only further convinces me that capital-F Fathers and Fatherhood must be totally abolished as a concept.
