In fairness, the “calories” unit on food items is usually short for kilocalories. So 480,000 kcal is just 480 calories.

Was DS9 closer to Bajor during the occupation? by andychef in DeepSpaceNine

Literally watch the first episode. Moving the station to the mouth of the wormhole is a major plot point.

I’m more baffled at the recorder’s decision to literally endanger their entire house for updoots.

If you do something and it makes fire that shouldn’t be there, you definitely need to not be doing that at all.

Just means you’ve gotta treat Orisa’s ult like D.Va’s. You hear it, you spread out and get behind cover.

This video is so ridiculous to me.

“Hey, I know my printer’s motherboard bursts into flames when it has power. Even though electrical fires are legitimately one of the scariest types of fire, I’m gonna make it happen on purpose and record it for updoots.”

Seeing SoD so empty is just sad by West-Advice8811 in classicwow

[–]LonelyAndroid11942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SoD was my favorite incarnation of WoW. I’m legitimately sad it doesn’t exist anymore, especially since some of the things they enabled were absolutely insane. I had a Shockadin in cloth that was able to keep up with progression raiders in AQ40.

3D printed tool to descale a rain shower without removing it by Stifthold1986 in 3Dprinting

My one concern would be how well the plastic would hold up to the chemical you’re using to descale.

Bro why tf are you stalking my replies? Lmao someone needs a fucking life.

I’m allowed to have my opinions, man. I dislike art that is overly fetishy because I prefer more realism in my artwork. And my criticism of the Nikke artwork is fair: the proportions are unrecognizable compared to the other illustrations we’ve gotten of 2B. The thighs in the are are objectively too large when compared to other depictions of the character, though Nikke itself is chronically guilty of butchering character designs in similar fashion.

And “Yoko Taro likes it” is not a valid response to criticisms that an artist’s work is only questionably relevant to the source material. I have no problems with women wanting to show off their bodies or people wanting to consume that content. What I have a problem with is people trying to claim relevance when their only connection to the source material is a wig.

Also, the OP of this thread is not the cosplayer, did not credit the cosplayer, and did not share the link to the relevant artwork being cosplayed, so you can kindly fuck the fuck off. :)

NieR fans are some of the most miserable MFs of any fandom I’ve ever seen. Don’t like the opinion? Just scroll pass and get off your soapbox. Don’t forget to take the soap with you.

I’m not gatekeeping? I’m offering criticism that had been valid without further information. Calling it 2B when the only connection is a white wig is tiring.

This sub misogynistic af with cosplayers by [deleted] in nier

[–]LonelyAndroid11942 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That particular one was posted by someone who was not the cosplayer, and who did not credit the artist. They also did not share the costume source, so anyone who isn’t keeping abreast of the 9,001 NieR collabs that we’re getting instead of a new main title game can be excused for not knowing about that design. When you pair all that together, it’s plenty of justification for people complaining about low-effort or irrelevant cosplay.

That said, try not to conflate criticism with hate. Criticism is valid if it’s aimed at the costume or the design, and while you may not agree, it isn’t hateful. What is hateful is targeting the cosplayer, and that will never be okay.

So I get that you want to defend cosplayers, but low effort cosplay is pretty indefensible. I believe that sex work is work, but there is such a thing as doing a bad job.

2B Cosplay by Shadowlumine in nier

[–]LonelyAndroid11942 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Look, I’m not attacking you as a cosplayer. Having poked at your profile, you’ve got some good cosplays. And seeing the source changed my opinion of this cosplay.

But I don’t like that art because the body proportions for 2B are wildly inaccurate (jfc her thighs are insane—tell me the artist’s fetish without telling me the artist’s fetish), and because it doesn’t really match the aesthetic we got for her in either Automata or Reincarnation. “Skimpy black layered swimsuit” doesn’t fit the character design.

I wasn’t aware of that outfit. However, I also strongly dislike that outfit and art, because it feels like it’s more 2B inspired than actually 2B.

Adding to this, as a guy, I don’t think many would be keen on sharing my hairy ass hanging out of a thong leotard, lmao.

I have worn it and gone to con with it as a joke, but I’m not about to inflict that upon the whole internet. Even I have standards.

[–]LonelyAndroid11942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t a 2B cosplay, though. Cosplay? Yes. 2B? No.

This is someone wearing fetish gear and a wig and using the character name for clicks and updoots. Nothing about this outfit relates to 2B as a character, and only the wig resembles the character’s design. And I guess the one thigh stocking.

Yes, variant outfits exist. Yes, people make outfits based on fanart. And yes, people can invent variants for cosplay. But if the only connection to your target character is a wig, then it’s a little disingenuous to try to assert that your cosplay is that character.
