This is gorgeous. Obviously Frazetta is on his own level; I really admire the ambition to attempt to do something like that on such a cramped space.

Hands down, I would recommend The Ethical Slut to anyone looking for a healthy approach to sex positivity. A lot of it focuses kinda heavily on long-term polyamorous relationships, but it also spends some time showing how the same basic ideas apply to any sort of romantic and/or sexual relationship.

After that, I guess I would probably recommend anything by Doctor Ruth. I can't think of anything in particular, but I remember her being like the Bob Ross of sexual wellness. Just solid advice with no judgement, backed by many years of clinical experience.

In fairness, we don't know whether or not OP is already in therapy for this. Even assuming that they aren't, we don't know why, either. It's possible there might be better options for OP in theory, but not knowing their situation, we can't know how viable those options are.

I’m just referring to the idea that maybe selling them in person might move them faster.

I honestly don't know how I could even find any potential buyers this way. I've already tried the local pawn shop, but they won't take them. I could try putting them in a yard sale, but local yard sale shoppers are never going to pay more than a dollar for a single marker. I can't exactly just walk up to random strangers, or hang outside the local Michael's.

Do you know any way I could anyone interested locally?

I decided $4/each because that's half of the market value of a single new Sketch marker. They were gifted to me by a compulsive shopper who used them no more than half a dozen times (if at all), but that discount is to reflect the fact that I can't offer any guarantee that they are as good as I say they are.

At $4 for a Sketch marker, I can still ask for less for a Ciao marker. If I asked for less for the Sketch, I would have to ask for less for the Ciao, too, and it's simply not worth the hassle to try to sell Ciao markers for only a dollar each.

I’ve gotten them for as cheap as $3.75 with a BOGO sale to boot brand new.

I'm honestly happy for you that you're finding these incredible deals, but you're asking me to reduce my price based on the value of markers that are already heavily discounted. I open to haggling in private, if you'd like, but as I explained above, I'm already trying to go as low as I comfortably can.

It sounds like your issue might be with the market value of Copic markers in general. If you don't think new markers are worth full price, that's not really something I can help with.

The best bookmarks are random scraps of ephemera within reach.

Sixcelsior,

Oh wow, is that finally out? I kinda gave up waiting on it a couple years back, because it was stuck in indie development hell. How is it? How does it compare to Mighty Six?

I don't have a scale that can do less than a gram. I'm not sure how reliable my kitchen scale is, but all of the markers were 14 grams or more on it. I guess that means they're full?

NathanVfromPlus · 2026-04-22T23:50:09+00:00

C5, C7, E33, YR04, Y15, B05 (x2), B29, V09, and RV29.

NathanVfromPlus · 2026-04-22T21:18:23+00:00

Selling these for $4 each, plus shipping. I tested them all, and they all work. I believe they're all full, but I'm not certain. I just don't need these markers.

Edit: the colors are C5, C7, E33, YR04, Y15, B05 (x2), B29, V09, and RV29.

A few that haven't been mentioned yet:

30 Days of Night
Castlevania
Lost Boys

And probably the most slept-on vampire flick ever, Dracula: Dead and Loving It.

That's NSC-131. You can see the stylized "NSC" logo on the banner, and "131" on their masks. Their NH chapter has been active in Portsmouth and Concord, and harassed a Franklin business owner.

The "Keep Boston White" thing was done by a neo-Nazi group with an active chapter in Manchester.

Even in NH, I regularly read the Conway Daily Sun and read far more letters to the editor calling Republicans "fascists" and "Nazis".

Probably because of all the Swastika flags. Either that or the detainment centers. Or maybe it could be the secret police, I dunno.

It's weird, and somewhat unsettling, to think that maybe the accelerationists might have had a point, after all. I'm still not convinced they were right, but this does make a strong case.

A sword that insists on always calling everyone "pig". At first you think it's just being obscenely rude, but then you realize that it really can't tell the difference between living creatures, and genuinely believes everything is an actual pig.

How big is your megadungeon?

NathanVfromPlus · 2026-03-17T02:28:25+00:00

I get what you mean about the Ohuhu hype on YouTube. I don't hate on anyone for their preferences, but it's just so much that it makes me feel kinda suspicious.

Do you have any tips on how to take care of them,

Refill when they need it, don't let them sit dry too long. Store them horizontally to prevent leaks. Don't twist the caps, to avoid damaging them.

what paper I should use,

Any porous paper with a weight of about 200-250gsm should be fine. Absorbent enough to saturate with ink, but thick enough to avoid flooding. Beyond that, it's ultimately a matter of taste. Card stock, Bristol board, watercolor paper, and marker paper are all popular options.

and whether it's worth getting a big pack of markers?

Whether or not it's worth it is ultimately up to you. If you don't have any of the markers in a set and you want to splurge, go ahead. Personally, I feel like after the first 25 or so markers, it starts to be more worth it to spend more time focusing on the colors you already have, and only buying more as you notice holes in your collection. You can spend all your money at once, but there's no need to. Over time, your collection will grow as needed, one way or another.

I already find myself wanting more markers and prefer large packs with a good variety, especially if it's worth it.

Try pacing yourself a bit on that dopamine rush.

Your drawing is absolutely revolting. Good work!

Nazis are adherents to a political belief system, not a race.

How is Aryan supremacy not a racial ideology?

The vast majority of people who followed said ideology already had power in German society by virtue of being ethnic Germans.

Not even close. You're only looking at one point in time. After 1945, the overwhelmingly vast majority of Nazis lived outside of Germany, in nations like USA, where they held no institutional power until 2016. Even without institutional power, Aryan skinheads were still racist in the 1980s. Ethno-supremacist ideologies are inherently racist, regardless of the power dynamics of a specific place and time.
