They need to be, like, at least twice as long.

The lesson I learned is fight for ranked choice voting.

“Do you mind if I include this in my book?”

I’m cool with roleplaying as an animal person, wearing a costume, the fetish aspect, whatever. Live your life.

I just don’t understand why they’ve all standardized to using the same terrible art style. It doesn’t look like a human, an animal, or even a sonic character (which I assume is the root), but a fourth thing. You can tell a furry by how they draw a normal human because of how deep set the habits are. Is there any other group as exclusively committed to an art style?

If I spent that kind of money on a wolf costume I’d at least want it to vaguely look like a wolf.

Edit: If you think these don’t heavily share a style (as compared to anthropomorphic characters from non-furry animated series, for example) then I don’t know what to tell you.

A long time ago my dad bought a full blown surround sound set-up, and I got so tired of not being able to hear that I spent days fiddling with the settings to no effect. Went online to do deep dive research and people just kind of hand-waived with a generic “buy a better setup and try different settings”. Completely gave up on good audio and leaned into the subtitle life.

Maybe if someday I could afford a bigger place I’ll try again. I did get some high quality speakers for my PC, but the years of disappointment lowered my standards so much that I didn’t even notice the left speaker was off because I didn’t slot the copper wires correctly for many months.

He cut the grass a little short.

One of my best friends is christian and I didn’t even know for years because it wasn’t relevant and they are a reasonable person.

It’s a quick-draw stance to minimize motion, I believe.

Good point, but it’s still an annoying meme format because of the nonsensical double negative on nobody saying nothing.

I know I’m alone on this hill, but I’ll die here.

You’re right, it’s exhausting.

TIL, thanks

I got my phone in Atlanta but I only lived there for a few months. It makes it really easy to know when it’s spam because no one in Atlanta ever has business with me.

I didn’t listen to much music for the better part of a decade, mostly because I wasn’t driving, then it occurred to me one day that I could start streaming it during a lot of the stuff I do. Probably doubled how much music knowledge I had in two years.

One time a friend and I (both in IT at the time) tried absolutely everything to fix a bizarre computer problem, then he told me to literally pull the hard drive completely out if the case and sit unplugged overnight before putting it back in. For some reason that worked, even though unplugging everything and plugging it right back in did nothing. Asked him why and he said “No idea, I was desperate.”

I saw a road sign the other day with a very detailed horse on it, and it distracted me for a second thinking “What the hell is up with that sign? Are there wild horses here? Is there a horse crossing up ahead? We’re in the middle of the city!” So I almost missed the woman leading a horse out into the road from behind a dense bush right behind the sign, not checking for traffic at all.

Probably would have been safer without the sign.

Interesting, I guess in 1994 it would make sense to redraw the guy instead of copying the asset over in Illustrator like you would present day.

Is this AI generated, or is my radar off?

This brings up the quandary, should I drive 1.5 hrs round trip to support an anti-cars initiative.

No one’s talking about anon’s weird assumption that authors go from idea directly to manga, and not that most authors start by writing a novel to attract a sponsor.

That’s how Wildbow does it.
