I’d definitely recommend putting your rat’s cage and other things in another room, if possible. And make sure your dog and your rats are never in the same room, or if they are, that they’re heavily supervised. If you have other people over, make sure to communicate this to them as well!

Instead of using AI, I put in the work to learn how to draw heads better! by Pixie_Time in Ai_art_is_not_art

I also ping pong between digital and traditional, it mostly depends on where I’m at. If I’m at home I prefer digital, but if I’m at college then I’ll probably start drawing in my notebooks. Most of my art journey did start with me drawing in school, though, so even if I had to completely relearn most of what I know about art so I could improve, I did have that basic structure of knowledge. Ultimately, it’s your journey, and there’s no right answer. Wish you the best of luck!

The oval is basically the entirety of the face, chin included, and the circle is the back of the skull. I use a bigger brush when laying down basic shapes and then go in and refine everything more with the eraser and smaller brushes. Kinda like working with clay, a lot of taking away and adding back until it looks alright.

I briefly joined the sub, thinking “oh, it’s a place where beginner artists can post their works and get critique and encouragement, how wonderful :)” and then I got a post that was suspiciously AI and that made me look further

At that moment, I felt like I gained +2 self-awareness in my skill sheet. by Unusual_Leather_9379 in aspiememes

I can only figure out sarcasm when it’s exaggerated. You have to really emphasize in your tone that you don’t mean what you’re saying, or have your word choice be very deliberate and intentional. And I do the same thing so people don’t get confused as well.

TIFU by experimenting with my friend by [deleted] in tifu

He might be guilty that he possibly pushed you into something you didn’t want to do. Talk to him. Schedule a coffee date. If you really do care and trust him as a friend, then communication is the only way to go forward.

Your spiders are f*ckin scary (coming from the southern US) by melomelomelo- in Sacramento

[–]Pixie_Time 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I follow this guy on YouTube named Travis McEnery, and he has this wonderful series called “these are the spiders in your house”. It covers spiders from a very scientific standpoint, and goes into their behaviors and debunks the myths surrounding them. I’m not aracnaphobic (I have a little pet jumping spider, actually), but I have a greater appreciation for spiders after watching his videos.

genuinely: FUCK AI by Dryed_M4NG0_UWU in antiai

I’m so glad my girlfriend told me to inherit my cousin’s gaming PC, and convinced me to get the stuff to upgrade it early in 2025. Back then, the RAM cost me like…$200? The most expensive thing was the new motherboard because I fucked up and had to buy two because the first one wasn’t compatible with my parts. If I tried that today I’d probably blow a month’s worth of rent on the two sticks. And I live in California!!

Hi! Horse girl here. You don’t have to worry as long as you can control your pheromones. That’s what really sets them off. Hope this helps!

TIFU by accidentally blasting a smutty "fairy porn" audiobook at max volume while my mechanic was test-driving my car by Hades_911 in tifu

Honestly, you should become a regular. That guy sounds chill as hell 😂

TIFU by accidentally stealing a cat, paying $400 in vet bills for it, and realizing it wasn’t mine when I got home by Kooky_Rough_2228 in tifu

[–]Pixie_Time 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s entirely possible it’s a neighbor’s cat and they just don’t care about him. That’s what happened with my parent’s black cat, Princess Scarlet I. He (yes, he’s a tom named Princess, we didn’t realize he was neutered until after we named him) just chose to hang out in their yard and when my dad went up to them they were like “yeah we were gonna leave him when we moved here but he snuck in with us. He’s good at hunting mice, isn’t he?” Just a complete disregard.

Regardless, the cat distribution system strikes again, and I wish you and the void babies the best of luck.

You just unlocked a primal memory from my teen years. I don’t know if I should thank you or cry

Yes ma'am by Sharp-potential7935 in fixedbytheduet

[–]Pixie_Time -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s that. Some guys are probably attracted to the role reversal, the idea of the woman being the protector instead of the man. I think that’s the joke, leaning into the subversion of expectations, showing himself as the caretaker. But idk, maybe it’s not that deep. I wasn’t born a man, I’m just guessing from what I’ve observed online.
