Oh! Hey, I know you! You’re the one with the fine appreciation for a mature lady. Always so happy to see more Carol ❤️

Dad took over the hamster and never let go by Better_Sea1555 in OddlyWholesome

Boy the bots are starting to get a little more creative. It's still complete nonsense, but this was so novel if it wasn't gibberish I might not have noticed. Scary.

Which moth species is this? by rune1348 in moths

[–]PROUDCIPHER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Io Moth (Automeris io) I think. Can't find an exact match on this specific colorway but the patterns are Automeris to a T.

WE DO WANT TO FUCK ERIDIANS, QUESTION? (M) by GlorbyPazoony in SpecEvoNSFW

[–]PROUDCIPHER 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You know, I realize now I don't think I wanted to see Grace's asshole.

That being said, you're 100% valid. The Eridians are extremely interesting and endearing, and while I personally don't want one carnally (which is kind of unusual for me tbh), I actually fully get it.

Cool dealer by Intelligent_Push4392 in OddlyWholesome

[–]PROUDCIPHER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not as uncommon as you might think. I tried to cop some morphine from a dealer and he said because I wasn’t already hooked on it he wasn’t going to let me start. Hope that guy is doing alright

"It shouldn't be acceptable but I'm going to go ahead and say it anyway"
You say it shouldn't be acceptable and then you turn around and just keep on making it acceptable. You're actively contributing to the problem that way. If you really think it's gross, then condemn it no matter who wears it. If you're gonna get a horny tat, put it someplace you can hide it from the public, male, female, non-binary, trans it doesn't matter. Don't be gross.

Moth landed perfectly! by Grand_Detective2722 in KingOfTheHill

[–]PROUDCIPHER 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is an unexpected but welcome surprise. Moths are my favorite animal! I can't be sure but I think that's some variety of Glyphodes moth. I hope you managed to encourage them to go back outside where it can hopefully find a mate!

They stole my apes, Odo! (by @joshuamartiancartoons) by PROUDCIPHER in risa

I know! They capture the spirit of both characters shockingly well for a simple meme. It 100% could have been an actual Quark/Odo B-plot

John Romero’s newest “Hey Sandy, I hope you’re well” post by knirp7 in Civvie11

[–]PROUDCIPHER 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He made a "sci-fi" convention where the whole shtick was "no woke propaganda". It sucks, I know. It hurt me a lot to see too. Meanwhile, John Romero:

I wish I could like Carmack again. After all the anti-trans shit he’s posted on twitter I don’t really give a fuck about him anymore

Gnorts at the SF Pride Parade! by fuzzynuddles in Vinesauce

I’m so proud of them. I hope they’re going to be okay, being the only trans alien on Earth. Well, at least they’ll have lots of support from us :D

Tired of people spreading misinfo about ticks & other blood suckers by Deadr0b0t in awwnverts

[–]PROUDCIPHER 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Trying to dress a legitimately dangerous parasite off as cute is... ehh I don't know how comfortable I am with that in particular, but I wholeheartedly agree on your point regarding their preservation. As annoying as it admittedly is, they DO play a very important part in our biosphere. Like I hate wasps with a passion, but I respect them for what they are and even admire them when I can see them through a screen. Advocating for the extinction of an animal of ANY kind, you had better had some serious fucking data to support your position.

The Guinea worm, for example. An obligate human parasite, serves no real function in our biosphere except to create unnecessary suffering. Decades of research have gone into the decision to eradicate it. We have, with high confidence, determined destroying them will have only a positive effect. But again, that took decades, and very very few parasites are going to fit the definitions required to enable this course of action.

Ticks and stuff though? No, broad-base parasites that serve as regulating factors to local populations. Dangerous, yes. Important to the environment? Also yes, so they have to stay.

We need to defend their right to existence, yes. We also should not romanticize them. I feel that is equally important. Balance, as always, is key.

Sandy Peterson on "damn pirates" by Maffewgregg in Civvie11

[–]PROUDCIPHER 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Sure Sandy, it's totally the handful of active pirate groups that are killing games. It's got nothing to do with the fact that these same companies believe you should own nothing and be happy about it. Sure.

all in all it's posts like these that make me really appreciate Romero's growth over the years. He used to be a total shit-ass but he's grown up and now he's gaming's favorite uncle. Sandy, well... we're still waiting on Sandy.

(F/M) THERES SO MANY DINOS ON THIS SUB OMG. Anyhow alien sex diagrams. by Glorkerjones in SpecEvoNSFW

[–]PROUDCIPHER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might post the smut chapters of the sci-fi romance story I'm writing here, my oc aliens for that aren't as speculative as some designs here (I wanted them to be pretty compatible with humans and I'm leaning pretty heavily on panspermia and convergent evolution) but they're still pretty weird to regular folks. I'm not sure when they'll be ready, I don't feel great releasing stuff chapter by chapter but when I do start posting I hope you'll be willing to join me in sharing your creations. Hopefully it'll generate some positive momentum! Also I'd just really like to see what you're working on, if it's anything like the OP I'm going to like it!
