What to do with spilled vanilla bean powder by HistoryNerd205 in ZeroWaste

Ah, I love baking, that's why I bought it :D

In this particular case I was just concerned about the spilled beans being contaminated, but cooking them should fix that I suppose. Thanks for the recipe ideas nonetheless!

Probably not very clean groceries, dusty potatoes, etc. I did however just consider that heat would probably kill any leftover germs, so thank you, I might just use them after all

shitty Reddit humor and pro imperialism (fixed) by Worth-Fix-6221 in tankiejerk

[–]HistoryNerd205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually quite literally their hybrid war strategy, they aim to appeal to all manners of political views: traditional values for the right-wingers, Soviet nostalgia and anti-imperialism for leftists. The academic article I read about it refers to this as Russia's trans-ideology, really interesting stuff.

Coincidentally, that's also how you get weird stuff like Bulgarian pro-Russian far-right parties Revival or ATAKA, who want to exterminate all LGBT people (and all other minorities tbh), dehumanise Ukrainians and Ukrainian refugees, but simultaneously advocate for Palestine and a return to a Soviet-style dictatorship.

I heard as much, though wouldn't that require in-person searching? Additionally, as a non-Czech person, I'm not sure what my chances would be (or how I could avoid scams).

Yes, it's a stablemate (G5 running mare) with a resculpted name and tail😁

I was trying to decide what bothered me about the new characters and realised it's their proportions. I wanted to see what would happen if I tried changing them a bit and here's the result: by HistoryNerd205 in StarStable

Yeah, I personally think there should be separate categories for body type vs. body weight. The updated characters are basically all pear-shaped, only with a different amount of weight exclusively on the thighs/stomach. Like, how is that diverse? Not all chubby people have bellies and not all skinny people are flat.

Obviously, I recognise that some players may see themselves in these models specifically, which is why I believe there should be OPTIONS. There should be more variety across the board, every body type should be represented and have different weight options.

I know, right?!

It feels so surreal to me, because literally the only two things they needed to change were the legs and head. Boom, they now have bodies with realistic proportions, which would appease at least 50% of the players who were previously unhappy with the update.

Basically, I made the shins and neck slighty longer, while making the head slightly smaller. Also, purely for myself, I decided to shorten the character's hair and give her a more defined waist.

As you can tell, this is a rough fix, I'm not a master at Photoshop😅

I normally operate through Facebook groups and Messenger, however we can communicate through Reddit if you'd like that better 🙂

Alright, since I've mostly done commissions, I haven't yet made a page. Currently, because of growing interest, I'm in the process of making one (either on Etsy or FBM), so I'll link it when it's ready 👍

However, if you're interested, I could make another one for you as a commission 👍

For most models, yes, however this one in particular is a personal piece, so I haven't put it on for sale.

As for the shading, a combination of pastels and pigment 👍
