lewd-adjacent, regretful
Do you ever look at amateur porn and feel regretful or self hating because someone else is wanted, beautiful and having a hot time, and meanwhile you're over here being the same old bland, mundane, tired self?
And if you start feeling like that, is it a sign you should probably step away from the amateur porn?
art blather
trying to analyze characters by Edouard Guiton;
* he'll block out an interesting pose/body and tangent both big flowing fabric and close fitting rigid costume elements to that body to retain silhouette
* so there's a contrast in material between rigid and free-flowing (he can use hair either way really)
* rigid elements like plates and jewelry, and flowing fabric or hair "wrap" shapes to create dimensionality
* costume shapes are exaggerated in a way that fits overall style.
racism
Okay, I wasn't originally sure Wardruna were okay (their frontman has really dissed on Christianity, and I've noticed that when white people diss "Christianity" it usually plays out in dissing Jews) but then I ran into his statement
"The image of the Runes has been tarnished by some right-wing racist idiots who have no business using them and only did so for their own gain. I want to give the Runes a voice and let them speak for themselves!"
so I guess they're at least not fucking neos!
Like; the would be wizard player wants his character to be an outcast from a warlike straightforward group, and likes WoW orcs - so WoW orcs are those guys in your world. The would be ranger likes halflings, so you have halflings, but the would be bard likes kobolds, so your world has kobolds. And then you model your villainous raiding armies or long forgotten ruin builders off your PCs, throw out a few more non player sapient species, call it a day?
I had a #DnD idea;
Most PC races are similar to those intended as NPCs and players constantly want to play them anyway. The big martial dudes who trust hitting things more than magic. The expert foresters who have tame animals. The sneaky trap wise rogues. What if you;
* set those options in front of the players and said hey these are the non humans; you tell me if they’re woodsy hyena-people, bearded gruff axemen, sneaky bat-rats, whatevs
* then extrapolate so those are the big NPC species?
Turns out anyone permanent and sales related has an off site tomorrow and I get 3 hours of my life back (unpaid). Do I;
1) go to an art supply store and a bookstore in the city and still clear out early?
2) head home and work on stuff for customers to clear more time this weekend?
3) head home and get in some needed practice painting?
#TMItuesday I never went to middle school. Where I grew up was rural enough that you went from grade school in 7th grade to high school in 8th.
Also, I never skipped grades because the public schools at that point had decided no student could.
coyote’s boat safety tip, tmi, drug reference
“Wear a safety vest and don’t mix alcohol and kayaking” are reasonable things and uh... the creator of naked, tripped-out canoeing would like to remind you that doing that safely was largely good luck.
Also, use your own damn canoe instead of assuming anything on the beach at the music festival is for group use.
So I ran into something which stomped hard on my issues, with cleats. The process of emotionally defusing that got me into just how interconnected my issues are. From here it manages to look like *both* stuff I could theoretically step out of easily *and* a tangled mess which can be nigh impossible to step away from.
How’s your morning going?
So I feel like providing TMI for #TMItuesday. Ask me stuff if you like?
when you close your eyes and you fall asleep
your snoring's only broken when you cut the cheese
when you open up your heart & the truth comes out
I got no earthly clue what you're dreaming about
when you tell me BUY TOMATO PASTE
when you tell me I GOT AMYLASE
you tell me CANINE BUS STOP
and it just don't come out all right
when you say in the night, yeah
I hear this incoherent dreck,
when you're lying in your bed
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
