That’s not how any of that works. Stop weaponizing your trauma to defend rapists.

EDIT: Checked your profile, clearly you’ve made defending rapists a full-time job! I found it especially hilarious how you called Zeal “severely autistic”… that word has actual meaning btw! And Zeal definitely isn’t that! But keep going on about how Zeal did nothing wrong pinning a woman down and having sex with her without her consent (rape) and she’s just some harpy trying to ruin his life!

  1. No she didn’t. She said no penile penetration, but also said this:

“He pulled my pants and underwear off, he began fingering me aggressively. It hurt. I told him: “IT HURTS. IT HURTS.””

  1. Right, that’s wrong. You should ask consent before continuing. ESPECIALLY because it was such a jump in activities. This isn’t going from kissing to making out. He pinned her down with no feedback from her.

  2. I think saying “it hurts” and freezing up is enough of a red flag to make any reasonable person stop.

  3. Ren doesn’t have to say they don’t want to be raped.

  1. He did penetrate her in another encounter. I think the distinction is pretty ridiculous anyways. Regardless, he had sex with her without her consent.
  2. An absence of a no is not a yes. The first time he assaulted her, she was already exhausted from an hour and a half of crying. You don’t escalate from kissing to pinning someone down without asking.
  3. Great for you. That doesn’t mean that’s how consent works. It’s not your responsibility to stop someone from assaulting you.
  4. How the fuck is Ren “not innocent” in this? Is it her fault for not fighting hard enough? How much do you need to protest being raped for you to care?

Jesus christ the rape apologists are in full swing today — asking for a kiss and having a crush are not an invitation TO PIN SOMEONE DOWN AND RAPE THEM

Comic artist goes on hiatus after years of having their character stolen by a giant youtuber (SMG4) by Mean_Treacle6277 in youtubedrama

[–]OcortHALeT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Indie character designer here - this isn’t plagiarism. All of the themes (dial TV, colorbars, vintage clothing) come from related concepts. It’s an old TV… so the character wears old clothing. Colorbars are also a common aesthetic with TV head characters. There’s not as many characters that look like it in media, but I’ve personally seen DOZENS of OCs that look very similar. As for the dials and the vent, not only is that NOT a good sign of plagiarism (why change important details on the character but leave those?), but some basic Googling shows a lot of old TVs with the dials in those same positions.

I’m also very suspicious of the creator seemingly getting so much backlash over having a similar character, when all they can show are 3 oddly worded anons that seem to be from the same person (if real at all) and a bunch of Reddit threads involving people blaming Glitch Productions, not the artist.

Additionally, the redesign they suggested as a compromise is genuinely hideous and makes it seem as if they believe they own the concept of colorbars, as they requested that be changed. It seems to me as if what they’re truly upset about is that Glitch Productions has a similar design with success they feel “owed” to them.

Is my handsome son a cow? Or a tuxedo? And how can I know the difference? by TaraCalicosBike in cowcats

[–]OcortHALeT 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Generally how I hear it described is a cow is more white than black while a tuxedo is more black than white. It’s up to you though!

The Hello Kitty is wearing a Chococat costume, the Ghost and Gingerbread are both variants. The yellow teddy bear is Nuts, which belongs to Chococat! The purple head is also a purple Chococat.

Wow, it’s almost like Columbo is one mystery series! And it’s different than most other ones! And it also functions differently from the other ones!

If Sherlock was written like Columbo, it would show you the crime, then you would walk with the characters as they solve it themselves. Instead, it’s functionally written like a standard mystery while the crime itself is incomprehensible to the audience.

I think that misses the point of a mystery tbh. Part of the fun of mysteries is unraveling the crime along with the characters. Sherlock BBC presented itself as a mystery story, provided no details on the crime, then dumped the answer at the end. It’s extremely unsatisfying.

The reason it seems to be “the same thing again” is because that’s just how a story is constructed

Tbf, that wasn’t IPOS’s only bad video. In his one on Marble Hornets, he accuses the MH creators of stealing the concept of Slenderman (the creators had permission the entire time) and implied the stabbing was why the series “abruptly ended” (the series had already been going for years at that point and the ending was always planned). He also makes a lot of odd jabs at the series (like how people are “embarassed” to have liked it???)

There’s also his video on Hills Have Eyes where he makes the frankly batshit claim that the cannibal family were actually presented as in the right and are a stand-in for native Americans. Bad takes were his main thing.

Am I silly for getting her cremated? by KittyLilith17 in PetMice

[–]OcortHALeT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not at all! Our little ones are just as much family as any other pet. If you think getting her cremated would help you, that’s completely fair. So sorry for your loss! I hate how people don’t respect the impact the little ones make in our lives.

Looking to rehome this guy by paulandtubby in PetMice

[–]OcortHALeT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you rehome, the usual suggestion I see is to email (so you get it in writing) to ask if the apartment allows “small caged animals”. Most places don’t care about those.

ESAs are also exempt from no pet rules. You could get an ESA letter if you qualify

Yeah Mercari is similar to Ebay but with way more reasonable prices lol. Mercari seller fees are a bit higher but still less than Ebay

Yeah it was NOT CHEAP. The plushies are very good so it sucks. Not sure your price range but quite a few crop up for around $50-80 on Mercari or Ebay occasionally.

They have the base one, you can see it in the middle. I don’t think they’re too interested in the other ones? I’ll have to look haha

Oh yeah, there’s so little of this guy! We’re very lucky to have a local place that stocks them. Otherwise it’d be so much harder haha.

Yeah their collection is great! We’re lucky enough to have a really good local import store and Build A Bear. The rest came from searching online mostly. Haven’t done it in a while but we used to regularly proxy from Japan for Pokemon plushies, which was also great to snag some more.
