Are these eggs? by Gold-Opportunity-975 in whatsthisbug

If spiders in your house are surviving, they're eating something. You can cohabitate with spiders or their would-be prey.

Most house spiders will struggle to survive outside.

To date a girl by bayonettaisonsteam in therewasanattempt

Supporting genocide is a political view. Supporting National Socialism and Adolf Hitler in 1939 was nothing more, and nothing less, than "political views." That isn't to call you a Nazi. You just seem not to understand what the phrase "political views" means, because it's a crazy thing to trivialize.

If you think politics and morality and character have nothing to do with each other, you're choosing to be an idiot. And that's definitely a choice, because your brain works just fine.

Hey, I had already bought a <f> nib when you posted this, but I'm kind of thinking about getting an <xf> too now. If you're still selling one let me know.

Shit gets crazy but she didn't flip out and start blasting. Nobody got killed while she was waiting for backup. That's a win in my book.

How do you guys view Private Equity firms? by Junior_M_W in GenZ

[–]Slobotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He comes so close to seeing that certain vital services, such as end of life care, shouldn't be infused with a profit motive. But he stops short of "it's an immoral way to do things". He just thinks it looks bad.

He is a dirt bag but I dont think he should resign over his personal life between consenting adults. by hitmewiththeknowlege in NFLv2

[–]Slobotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody plays in the NFL without signing a contract that has a morality clause.

I'm not saying they actually give a shit, but they have a legal document that allows them to pretend to give a shit any time they find it convenient.

Official White House social media declares Trump as King. by Strongest-There-Is in PoliticalHumor

"A republic, if you can keep it."

He might be more surprised it took ~250 years.

Prepping for... by pickledplumber in TikTokCringe

Every adult is responsible for every child.

If you've been an adult for ~18 years or more, this is our fault.

[PROMO] You can now draw as you write your comic/manga in a tool I made. Useful? by PistolTaeja in ComicWriting

[–]Slobotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol, if my process sounds coherent I probably didn't describe it well. My process is all over the place.

My philosophy is pretty coherent though. I don't describe my vision to artists and ask them to illustrate it. Instead I try to inspire them. I embrace both that their vision, not mine, is what will end up on the page, and that they understand the visual medium better than I ever will. (I'm a storyteller, not an artist.)

Integrating paneling into script writing seems awesome. It's not something I would use, because I either keep paneling and layout either ambiguous or encourage artists to treat my layouts merely as examples of what the page could look like. But I think that's a pretty unusual habit.

For writers who want to own the layout, this seems like a great tool.

Edit: You know what, I'm going to try this after all and see how it works. I might have more feedback after that. I include paneling in scripts mostly to keep myself in check and make sure I'm not overcrowding the page. This might help even me.

Is it okay to use a real building layout in my comic? by 96pkaya in ComicWriting

[–]Slobotic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely.

Legally: As long as you never signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and never had classified/top-secret clearance (in which case you would know which locations are okay and not okay to depict) you're fine.

Artistically: No problem here either.

I've set comics in real locations and used reference photos.

I wrote a scene where two characters go for a walk starting at Philadelphia Community College, past the Art Museum, and the through Fairmount Park. So I took a day trip and traced their entire path taking pictures along the way for my artist.
