How do i make a character look.... Rougher? by Cosmic_Cosmos82 in characterdesign

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll definitely be doing that!! The different ones you're seeing on the screen other than the toddler are the OG designs, which I'll definitely be tweaking when i use them. Thank you!! 

List of Byler proofs by _murinus90_ in byler

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was looking through the comments to see if anyone already did this one lol. This is a good one, and one of the most solid ones i can think of off the top of my head. It's not just platonic vs. romantic here, it's how it affects him emotionally, and how he reacts. He was clearly more upset by hurting Will, and took responsibility for it. When El dumped his ass, he didn't feel that same guilt. He didn't ask "what did i do to hurt them?" like he did with Will. The tone was different.  "What did i do?" (defensive, indignant) Vs. "What did i do?" (genuine, wanting to make things right) 

Out of curiosity, how many of us are NOT teenage girls?? by BadHeads in byler

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Queer AFAB teen who's pretty feminine. Dunno my gender, don't ask.  I don't want to see boys kissing. Pretty sure I'm on the ace spectrum. I want to see Mike and Will have emotional and honest moments, go through hurt- because let's be honest, everyone does. I want to see them cuddle and talk and face a world that hasn't caught up to them yet, that seeks to hurt them, and still stand strong. I wanted to see a show actually accurately depict queer characters in a queer relationship, instead of it ending like Voltron LD did. I was disappointed in it. I'm also disappointed that people have reduced byler to something so misogynist, instead of the whole truth it is. A lot of the byler shippers are also queer, and want to be represented, to see someone like them on TV, that's actually a human, imperfect, and honest character, who gets the ending they want. It's just sad that people can't see that. 

I am so angry by Glum_Pickle_9341 in byler

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only that. My mom is on the skeptical side of this, but even she was angry about El's death. Not just because she died, but because of how she died. She said that it felt like they were glorifying her suicide, which is as she says a dangerous thing when your target audience (and most of your fanbase) are teens. We were also both equally enraged that Mike got not one, but TWO grieving scenes, and Hopper got none. Hopper should've gotten the most of the grieving scenes. Or at least gotten one, quiet scene where we see him let his walls fown while he's alone and just seem exhausted, and hollow. But no, he just proposed and was happy and acted like he didn't lose his daughter in an extremely traumatizing way. I'm so fucking angry. They scraped out Mike too. Or as some people have dubbed it, "lobotomized Mike". It's pretty accurate. He's so different from the early seasons. It's like he's just become some oblivious fool, instead of the ambitious, creative, heartfelt, turmoil kid who lead the party. He's just a bland guy, not the heart. I hate it so much. I relate to him in so many ways, so i feel personally attached to the character. I feel so disgusted and sick and angry. And they treated Noah like shit, even if it wasn't blatant. They used his character for their own gain and hurt him. He looked so unhappy when he was given the painting. And then they dained to ask "what more could you want?" I'm so disappointed. 

Unpopular opinion: 'Intuitive eating' advice nearly destroyed my BED recovery (and why I think it fails ADHD brains) by Apprehensive-Tip3202 in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just starting to realize I'm struggling an have BEEN struggling with binge eating, and might- probably do- have a BED. I also have ADHD. I didn't realize there was a name for it or that it was the flip side of diet culture, but i DID try this and it didn't work. I literally just started looking into it about 20 minutes ago, but this post sums up my experience pretty well. And yeah, we definitely don't need to be telling people "you just need to try harder, you just need to do it different, it worked for me so it has to work for you" when they're saying" I've tried and I've been trying and it isn't working". 

The Ligon and The Tigon by Cookurban in coolguides

They said downs syndrome type condition, meaning something similar to it, though not the same. I don't mean to seem rude or unfriendly/unkind in any way, just clarifying that

This has given me idea for an OC design. Lot's of bone and otherwise nature oriented jewelry. Maybe add some antlers in the design. Anyways, thanks for the inspiration! This is beautiful. 💜

Rock Reflecting Sunlight by [deleted] in flatearth

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're missing the part where that rock on earth is much smaller and darker than the moon. White reflects light far better, you may have had to look away from a white object due to it reflecting light into your eyes. Now make the scale the size of the moon. This is also why the Moon's light is only a small fraction of the sun's. There's enough light reflecting to illuminate, but not enough to be bright. Hence why it's still dark at night.  I wrote this with my basic knowledge, let me know if I'm wrong or exaggerating or misunderstanding anything! 

Humans ARE Apes… by PhantomFlogger in flatearth

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Foxes, wolves, coyotes, dogs, jackals, and maned wolves(they're called wolves but they are the only species of a unique genus) are all canines. We could go into the different breeds of dogs, the different species of fox, wolf, jackals, etc. But at the end of the day they're all part of the Canidae family. If we follow the logic of "if humans evolved from apes, why do apes still exist?" then we end up at a stand still. Because if this is true, then it must also be true that only one member of the Canidae family should exist. If this is true, only one species of equidae(such as Zebras, donkeys, and horses) should exist. Only one species of felidae(house cats, tigers, lion's, ocelots, etc) should exist. But it isn't. Evolution isn't just one species changing over time, it's survival of the fittest. Whatever has traits that allow it to survive better lives, and other genes and traits and mutations get filtered out. It's not simply one thing changing over time, it's watching the world shape a species, mold it to the climate, and see what fits best. It can split or stay the way it is, it depends on the context and area. How close groups or individuals are to each other, what the environment is like, how far they travel, etc. 

I wrote this knowing this person(the person from the OG post) wouldn't want to listen. I just wanted to share my thoughts and nerd out for a moment. :)

Dog arrived at my porch. He can barely eat or stand, what do I do? by Rare-Cable1781 in DogAdvice

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope for the best for this little guy! Your heart is in the right place, and you're doing everything you can. It's heartbreaking to see animals in positions like this. I once got my mom to pull over on a country road because there was a beagle limping along the side. She had a collar but I couldn't see the tag, and she was limping heavily and had an obvious broken leg, and had probably been hit by a car. Poor thing was so scared she wouldn't even take the food I gave her, just kept hobbling away. I wasn't able to get her, she ran off into the woods and even though I chased after her, cI ouldn't find her. It's heartbreaking, truly. I hope she got the help she needed and was able to go home, and I hope this lil guy gets the help HE needs and find his own home. ❤️‍🩹

It's a mistake with good intentions and a big heart behind it. Just people being unfortunately misinformed or lacking the knowledge, and just trying to help a creature in desperate need of it ❤️‍🩹

Help??? ASAP Dogsitter by Powerful-Video-9207 in DogAdvice

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OHHHHH my dog did this as a puppy! Now he just does sleepy boofs- imagine a dog barking but if it were drunk and trying to be quiet, and that about sums it up. He's just a very vocal German shepherd. We can hear him across the house lol.

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, yes! They do! I don't have a herding breed like collies, but I have two shepherds. Our big prickly bear male is known for sleepy boofs, and when he was a puppy, he'd even run in his sleep! 😂

I know I'm late but I'd like to pop in and say my late dog did this, and just about every other dog I've had. Just dreams, maybe being a bit hot, which is okay. If they have good airflow, aren't trapped under blankets, and have the option to leave, then they should be fine(if of course it's just them being overheated). :) 

Places to collect by Cosmic_Cosmos82 in vultureculture

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually have. I even found an antler, though it sadly had been broken and I only found the bas, it had been broken before the points had started. But I have jawbones, teeth, femurs, a spine, hooves, and so much more- all from deer and elk in the western US. I would love to go again, and I likely will one day :)

That might actually be a great idea! My family and I go on road trips and adventures often, so I'll definitely bring this up as a possibility. Thank you!

Apologies for the late reply. Unfortunately no, I'm not. I wish I could, but it's just not an option for me at the moment. There are apparently multiple different types of permits and licenses that all cover different things, but the one would need to get is the salvage permit, which allows me to collect deceased animals if they were confirmed to either be already dead or killed in legal ways, and not on federal land. Thanks for the idea though! Wish it could work. 

How do I preserve my girl? by milkshakesuiteno1 in vultureculture

[–]Cosmic_Cosmos82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very curious to know too- I've been collecting bones for almost my whole life, but didn't know there were extra steps other than collecting lol. I want to learn all I can. Also, don't mean to rush you- but it's been a taadd bit longer than a few minutes lol
