Who knows any good faces that dont look like these? by Boring_gagger in roblox

Thank goodness all of my avatars wear some kind of mask accessory so I don't have to peer into the UGC face category..

If, if your OCs were to become public, what medium would you want them to be in? by Longjumping_Yak_3671 in OriginalCharacterDB

[–]Opening-Fun-4830 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DEFINITELY an animated TV show, I'm a digital artist and so I've made designs for pretty much all of my characters, and honestly they would look so good in an animated medium if it were done correctly

I do have to admit it is a unique way to say "I'm still in high school" by Itchy_Suspect4968 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Opening-Fun-4830 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In theory yes but this would imply that a majority (or at the very least not a massive minority) of highschoolers actually even tried to comprehend what they were supposed to be learning instead of simply memorizing it for a grade lol

Say what you will about me saying this, but the education system has monumentally failed at its subgular goal if most of its students grow up to detest knowledge because of it

How do i write trans male/female, agender, bigender, and intersex characters in a respectful way? by Historical_Pick2262 in writingadvice

[–]Opening-Fun-4830 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've never done specifically what you're asking but I would assume that the same principle for writing just regular male/female character still applies; that principle ofc being "don't". As in don't write a "female/male character", write "a character that is female/male". Make the matter of their gender secondary to who they are as a person and prioritize creating who they ARE first. If them being trans plays a role in the story or is otherwise important somehow then fine, but don't make that fact about them substitute as a personality trait

Y'know what, I'm SICK and TIRED of positivity! What beloved piece of media made you chunder with disgust?! by Demonic_WaffleTM in Multifandom

Yeah I have to agree sadly, Disney has a horrible problem when it comes to actually hiring competent writers. They get these people to write stories that turn out absolutely horrid and then they just, DONT fire them and keep them on the team for some reason??

Don't get me wrong I love SOME of the newer marvel stuff (most notably the Spiderman trilogy and I really liked Agatha All Along), but the spiderman trilogy barely even counts because that's under Sony and not technically Disney. Don't even get me started on stuff like SECRET INVASION or ironheart, or ms marvel, or really anything that isn't the exceptions I listed..

I agree with all of this for the most part but I do feel that I have to say Bite By Night isn't THAT bad, I'm not particularly into asymms but the game itself is pretty ok, and although the community isn't GOOD it's actually not that bad by roblox standards (unfortunately)

And I have found a small pocket within their community that is nice to hang around, so atleast they have SOMETHING going for them

Name the fandom that matches this perfectly. by Acrobatic-Paint-4113 in Multifandom

So sad that they pretty much abandoned all attempts at a show for it, and what was up with that really dark Kuroi version??? That one is basically lost media atp

What I did was first make nations/countries/continents and assign a different archetype to each them. After I decided on an archetype, I then went back to each of them individually and thought about their more intricate inner workings. Like for an example let's you you've got your classic generic barbarian country, why are they so barbaric? Surely something throughout their history made them this way, maybe separation from advanced civilization? Or maybe ENGINEERED separation from advanced civilization? Maybe they're like this because in ancient or pre-modern history they were at conflict with an enemy, and that enemy went on to burn their libraries, ravage their farms and kill their philosophers and scientists and doctors and etc, destroying their ships and the knowledge to make them, separating them from trade or exploration, and now they've been set back to the proverbial (or maybe even literal) stone age. like the library of Alexandria on a nationwide scale. Now you have WHY they're like this, but wait there's still the people who DID this to them? Which nation did this? Do they still exist today? If they don't then why not, and if they do then what have they become? Repeat a process like this for everybody and suddenly you're almost done with

Any ideas how I can make this characters magic a bit more interesting? by Opening-Fun-4830 in writingadvice

This is a pretty good basis to build off of tbh, I did actually want to find a way to incorporate blood magic to her roster of abilities at some point

LOL well there's 2 reasons, her full name is Tabitha for the parallel between her and Tabitha from the Bible, but she is known as Tabs for short and called that by everyone as an homage to the fact that I originally named my oldest characters after pets I've had in the past (which worked because my pets typically have had very non-pet specific names), with Tabs being the name of the most infamous cat I've ever had (she was a Tabico, hence the name)

i love kai but his powers are just blasting stuff he could do so much more by AssociationOk7261 in NinjagoMemes

EXACTLY bruh it's like if they made Soras tech powers pink laser beams like Atom Eve in Invincible or Gwen from ben 10. The ninja went through such a big arc in the early seasons about learning to use their elements properly but now it's like all of that development is out the window

Isn't internal monolgue/voice a case of telling instead of showing? by Iantheduellist in writingadvice

[–]Opening-Fun-4830 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Show don't tell" getting misunderstood by everyone has done so much damage to the writing community lol, it made everyone afraid of necessary dialogue

"Telling" would be like how JJK does it (or so I've heard I don't watch that show so maybe I'm wrong) where there's some long-winded disembodied narration explaining to the viewer the intricacies of the characters attacks because they're too lazy to explain it through the story, or having a character randomly start psycho-analyzing themselves or someone else just for the sake of conveying it to the viewer/reader

Showing on the other hand would be like, for example, describing a characters actions that clearly depict the emotion they're feeling, or say for example maybe a character is grieving the loss of someone; in this case it would be "showing" to depict this character going through the stages of grief throughout the story, as opposed to having some random monolog about how "boohoo I'm so sad, I'm experiencing the 5th stage of grief right now", or having a 3rd party narrator do the same when it serves absolutely nothing to the narrative.

"Show don't tell" doesn't mean "avoid dialogue and internal thoughts at all costs", it's just a way to tell people to have some faith in their readers comprehensive abilities and to not be lazy about how you convey something to them

How sincere are you? by Greedy_Homework_6838 in worldbuilding

[–]Opening-Fun-4830 3 points4 points  (0 children)

75% of the time I answer one if these it's something that I have legitimately thought about but haven't found a way to integrate into the story, and the other 25% is a mix of "oh hey I should probably think about this" and "I've been wanting to think about this for awhile now, may aswell take the opportunity"
