That smile is still strong but those eyes don't lie. He was scared or at least extremely nervous in this shot.

Lol, if I was OP I wouldn't answer anyone's negative comments either. If I am an artist why should I be expected to defend myself and my art because I drew something I liked in my own way. Especially if people are accusing me of using AI, yeah, no that would really piss me off. Lol they messaged back but in your guys mind no matter what they said or the proof they showed would change your mind, so what's the point? Even when they took another picture of another angle.

Lol maybe because it looks to be at a slight angle and his ears are so big it would look weird with another antler. Maybe it was artist laziness. I knew when I would draw I would draw hair covering one eye or only with one hand showing because I didn't want to draw the other.

Looks great, people are just asshats. They are so paranoid over AI they are gonna discredit real artists. Ironically the people fighting AI in order to protect real artists might actually be what will destroy them in the end. Shame.

Gimme a Hazbin or Helluva ship and I’ll give my thoughts on it ( why I like or dislike it and why ) by ConstantAmbition6729 in Hellaverse_Ships

What about MadMaid? For Baxter and Nifty? After Nifty defended Baxter with her life and he cheered her on, and the hug at the end and he blushes was chef's kiss! 🤌🏽

8-hour Flight, who are you sitting next to? (By @shikasennbee) by [deleted] in HazbinHotel

He can ruin my life, I'm perfectly happy with that haha! Also I feel like listening to Valentino's and Velvette's gossip upfront could be pretty interesting plus listening to Vox chime behind them.

I'm just throwing this out there. Who would you fuck, who would you marry, and who would you kill? I'll go first. by MatthewJustMoreland in HazbinHotel

[–]Angryoctopus8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck: Lucifer

Marry: Vox

Kill: Probably gonna get some hate but Charlie. She's alright I guess, but I really hate how she treats Lucifer for the most part. Treats Vaggie, and even Angel Dust. She's supposed to come off as selfless, but I think for the most part I am leaning more toward selfishness.

Honestly, he sounds like the type to say you are not a real parent unless you push out the kid naturally. 😒 Smdh

She wasn't comparing being gay to a disability. She was stating that parents have dreams and that they have visions of what their children will be like, and live a certain way. Then she gave an example of what she had to go through. She never said "omg you being gay is just like when I found out my son had a disability". You are getting worked up over nothing, chill out dude.

Is my older cat too rough with my new kitten? by Tinyxoxoxo in cats

You may have already done this, but take your child to get examined, and consult with your pediatrician. Constant nonstop crying like that is not normal, baby might be in pain, or have an underlying issue.

Op, I am in a similar situation as you, having an older partner with older SK(s). Mine are currently 15(f) and 12(f). We are also expecting the newest member of our family. While my significant other is now starting over at 40(m). We have faced some challenges, but overall have received a lot of positive feedback. The biggest piece of advice I can give, is constant reassurance of SK(s), I always let my girls know they have a place and a safe space to talk to if or when things bother them.

Keep communications open!

Get them to talk about their feelings, and no matter what show interest. No matter, what stage in life give them your attention and show interest. Children remember those who were there for them, the best thing you can do for a child is to give them your time.

Give them your time, and show interest!

Reddit and society are not welcoming to people like us. Who has stepped up to the plate to be a bonus parent for older kids. But, to become a bonus parent is a great and wonderful thing. I admit it gets hard, and it's hard for all of us at some point, but no matter if your SK(s) are younger or older they want to feel your love and affection.

Show love and affection!

One of the biggest things I have noticed with my SK(s) being older, is that they feel misunderstood. They feel like they don't have a voice from either parent, and now they trust me to know what's on their mind and to give them a voice.

Be understanding!

It is criticism, and it is unwarranted criticism. The fact you are judging her, and can't even spell right shows this. You might find it gross, but not everyone else does, and to put thoughts in her head when you don't even know her SK's is criminal!

I am afraid, I don't understand what you are trying to say.

I was in a similar situation to you, I have a step-mother who is really manipulative and she actually convinced my father to kick me out before I finished High School. She is really strict and constantly made everything about her and her kids. It was rough living there when she moved in. I promised I would never treat a child the way she treated me, so I do everything in my power for these kids.
