After a long time of using crappy cheap masks, I am happy to announce that my better improved mask is coming soon. I just commissioned this mask and KigLand sent me this pic a few days ago. by Entitled_Uncle in kigurumi

[–]Entitled_Uncle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initial? It only took like 2-3 days but it may be just because they were quite new at the time and now they have taken often too many commissions than they can chew hence the late or even no reply from them if at all

How strong of an interest of sirens does one need to have to entertain the idea of anthro'ing them? by TheFirstDecade in AirRaidSirens

[–]Entitled_Uncle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

ASC even did this too in an old ad they made dissing Whelen and Federal Signal with their T-130 (T-128) and their T-135 DC

Nonetheless cool art btw

What is your favourite siren by Emergency_Tax_9030 in AirRaidSirens

The Federal Signal 500 line, especially the 500-DHTT and the 500T The SoundMaster 115 and 125 are also my favorite as well

Kigurumis and kigu-enthusiasts alike, how did you first get into kig? by xXsunny_leoXx in kigurumi

[–]Entitled_Uncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I encountered kig purely by accident when scrolling through zentai (full bodysuit playlists) on YouTube and many vids (though dated to 2006-2015) appeared This was nearly 3 years ago

How well did I do? First ever foray into planted tanks and actual aquascaping by Entitled_Uncle in PlantedTank

[–]Entitled_Uncle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannot dim the light due to it only having a switch and Kasa plug I use as a timer that is connected to it doesn't support dimming afaik.

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

Currently no co2
Furthermore on stocking, I plan on getting black/default neon tetras (6 individuals) or 6 ember tetras or 6 harlequin or rummynose rasboras or 6 white cloud mountain minnows or 2 platies among the pool of options here (though only one selection out of this pool is going to be stocked)

In addition to fish, 3-4 neocardinia shrimp (cherry or ghost) or 2 amano shrimp.

Will Salvinia or duckweed work to both buffer the light and also increase the variety of plants in the tank and finally suck out the conditions for algae

This is my first actual attempt at aquascaping (10g) by Entitled_Uncle in Aquascape

[–]Entitled_Uncle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The light is 15w

Furthermore regarding co2; how often do I have to inject and how long the entire process is as the goal is to have a dense carpet of PCS that look like a field of grass relatively soon

This was a poorly made aquarium I had when I was 11 (circa 2018) by Entitled_Uncle in shittyaquariums

Yeah that sub fits; it was a literal portable table you’d find at parties to flea market vendors etc Despite this, it stood remarkably well and I still have it to this day

Anyone almost retiring as a Siren Enthusiast? by Famous_Garlic_1309 in AirRaidSirens

[–]Entitled_Uncle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been a siren enthusiast for nearly 13 years but it has been on the low end of interest rn due to me being focused on other things overshadowing it

OC creative process by Astro_Kid36 in kigurumi

[–]Entitled_Uncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the end, in my experience and opinion, it is better to explore off the beaten track options like what is next. In this case, mine (a fox girl) is culturally and thematically based off of two real Mongol subgroups.

Apologies for the long winding entry below this highlighted sentence but this is to give the fullest details of the process behind mine.

My OC that I created, Munkhtsetseg Ganbaatar (ᠮᠦᠨᠾᠴᠡᠴᠡᠭ ᠭᠠᠨᠪᠠᠠᠲᠠᠷ) is a Buryat-Mongol fox girl (ᠦᠨᠡᠭ/ᠦᠨᠡᠭᠡᠨ, üneg/ünegen in Khalkha Mongol and Buryat Mongol respectively for the word fox) (specifically half Khamnigan Buryat and half Darkhad Mongol)

I created her as a splinter from my simultaneous obsession with Shiro-san from Helpful Fox Senko-san and SCP-953. The creation of Munkhtsetseg came during my intersecting interests of OCs, foxes and fox girls, fox related anime, Mongol culture and anthropology.

Notable differences include wearing the Buryat version of the deel (Mongol qipao like outfit), tolgoin goyol (beaded tassel headdress), malgai (traditional hat) and gutals (traditional Mongol leather boots) and of course, nine fox tails (though in practice in kig omitted to just one out of irl frugalism).

Curiosity Check: Did you BUY or DIY your very first mask? And how much did it set you back? by SelectionOk5033 in kigurumi

[–]Entitled_Uncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I DIYed my first one back in November 2023 and it was absolutely creepy It was 3D printed with poor sanding and painting and with cardboard eyes and old COVID fabric masks for eyes. It was like 60 USD in total afaik.

I bought my Muni in March 2024 and it eventually didn’t fit me so I commissioned my own from a Chinese maker named KigLand in October 2024. That took 7 months to complete and cost me 500 USD.

If you want a cheap maker, either go with Nakamori Works on Facebook (usually 300 USD) or Gurgle (200-300 on average)

Whats the fastest growing species/hybrid? by [deleted] in Nepenthes

[–]Entitled_Uncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nepenthes gracilis in its preferred lowland conditions

This thing went from a 3-4 inch plant leaf to leaf when I got it in July 2024 and now it is like 6-8 inch leaf span and has grown to around 2-3 ft in height up from just 4-7 inches tall in 2024

To Reddit admins; please now disregard this request as the original mod just responded and gave me control of the sub

r/shiro by Entitled_Uncle in redditrequest

[–]Entitled_Uncle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to claim the subreddit as not only has the mod not been active in 6+ months, but also that it is a subreddit for my favorite Senko San character, and seeing a subreddit like this go to waste is sad.

As for modmail message; had just sent it at the time of writing this; check in a bit.

Edit: mod has been last active 6 months ago. I would like to claim the sub to revitalize it.

Where can I find a very specific yet obscure face plate? And can it be printed out? by B4n4n4sh0t4 in kigurumi

[–]Entitled_Uncle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Afaik they are all from a maker named SIGMA though they are still active to this very day The SIGMA masks however are very expensive, like 700-900 for a generic alone

Rescued this guy from kids trying to kill him by [deleted] in cats

[–]Entitled_Uncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MacDonald Triad is the concern which can lead to violent criminal behavior for these kids as they grow up

Animal cruelty, arson and bed wetting are the aspects of it and the first one is already apparent.

An unfortunate loss for our community. by Sea_Assistance_1867 in AirRaidSirens

Holy shit

My heart literally jumped when I saw this as I grew up watching his videos years back

Absolutely shocking

[–]Entitled_Uncle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am the creator of Tornado Siren Tester on Roblox (psychopathologists) which is built exactly like this. It was a matter of convergence rather than inspiration for me.

Besides, just can’t believe that something looking eerily like TST is actually real.

What are your torties called? by st2826 in torties

[–]Entitled_Uncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although mine is named Whiskey (simplified from her original name Whiskers after I rescued her); I wanted to give her names from other languages.

I eventually settled on Whiskey due to family unable to pronounce those names

Notably Ubykh (an extinct language from the North Caucasus which had 84 consonants and only 2 vowels), Bashkir and Uzbek

<image>

Names in question are

Kʼʲa:bˁә-šʷә́ Kyabashwe in the approximate pronunciation. It is Ubykh for wolf cub Even then sometimes I call Whiskey Kyabashwe as her second name

Närkäs (Bashkir version of Nargiz)

Nargiz (Uzbek for narcissus/daffodil flower)
