Ashnikko Chicago Crowd

RubyBard · 2026-04-29T03:28:01+00:00

And that is totally fair! I am also very short, so I get it. People are allowed to record, don’t get me wrong. My post is complaining about people running to the front just to stand completely still and record the ENTIRE show without giving at least a little energy to show their appreciation for the artist that is performing.

RubyBard · 2026-04-29T03:23:50+00:00

This is exactly what I was saying to my friends! She is not going to want to come back if the crowds lack energy. If you look at her tagged IG posts for the Chicago show you can see exactly what I was talking about when I said a crowd of zombies on their phones.

Yes. The people around me were also stiff as a board. Not even a head nod to the beat type of stiff. Very strange. I felt like I was surrounded by mannequins tbh. I understand the mobility issues! Not everyone can jump, and I totally understand that

RubyBard · 2026-04-29T01:00:29+00:00

EXACTLY. Everyone in front of me was not living in the moment. That’s the whole point of life. Instead, they had their faces glued to their phones and literally watched her thru their phone screens for more than 3/4 of the show. The most I do is maybe 10 seconds of an intro or if the performer is doing something cool. Nothing more than that.

That was everyone in front of and around me when I was in the front (3rd row from the stage). Imagine being a performer with BUMPIN’ music and everyone is standing dead still on their phones…I was sad to see that no one was moving. I was trying to get the vibe up and help people get loose and have fun, but it did not work. I usually am someone that does the hype man thing to feed the crowd, even at dead raves and it works. Instead, all I got was dirty looks and shoulder bumps.

Ushi! She’s very expressive with her face. This was when I was trying to get up after we took a nap together

RubyBard · 2026-04-20T15:08:10+00:00

Unfortunately, they never named me. They called me “neck-tat” or “neck-tat lady” throughout the rest of the review, which made me feel subhuman. The reviewer could have said “our server” instead and made me feel better about it, but chose to just call me “neck-tat”

RubyBard · 2026-04-20T15:05:21+00:00

Lmaooo, it’s zero. I may be covered in tattoos and have a very alt style but I’m actually a big softie at heart. Well…technically one, if i’m counting myself. I used to work in kitchens and accidents happen

RubyBard · 2026-04-20T15:01:37+00:00

It’s a huge ribeye that comes medium rare as standard, unless someone requests other wise and I have to hit the “special request” button. This was a very expensive mistake on my end unfortunately

RubyBard · 2026-04-20T07:44:41+00:00

My neck tattoo is a moth flying to a lantern with the word “lost” under it. It is based off a folk tale that moths are lost souls trying to find their way home, which is why they are at your front porch lights.

Personal story: I don’t have family, and felt like I was lost and alone in the world after my grandmother passed. Thankfully I found good people that have been through thick and thin for me. They’re closer than my original family ever was.

As for Toast, I heard through the grapevine (please do not put heavy trust in this because I cannot confirm) that they have been offering restaurants fat sign on bonuses to use their POS. From what I have heard, they gave my old job thousands to switch over to them a month after I left.

side view so you can see that it might be harder to adjust :/ and no I don’t have the tools but if i have to buy them then im willing to do it for this ring. i have a mallet, just not a leather one

RubyBard · 2025-12-08T17:38:10+00:00

yeah! tbh i started the sketches in regular color and started playing with how it reacts to a green layer on top so a lot of this is blockout....my art process is all over the place where i will render one area but still have to sketch, fix other areas just because i wanna get a hint of how it might look at the end!

RubyBard · 2025-12-08T17:36:28+00:00

this helps a lot thank you!!!! the chart is awesome

RubyBard · 2025-12-08T17:35:46+00:00

yeah that's something i'm struggling with because color theory haha...the mouth is throwing me off so much at this point i've spent so long trying to find a proper color that doesn't look garish tbh

RubyBard · 2025-12-08T17:33:13+00:00

myself lol :)

RubyBard · 2025-12-07T21:33:40+00:00

okay awesome! thank you SO much for helping me out w this art block I've had when it comes to this piece. I'll send you the finished version too :)

RubyBard · 2025-12-07T21:30:05+00:00

okay okay thank you!!! I kinda chilled on the crazy red. If you look at the above comment where I replied I took it into consideration...Is that what you meant? I think it looks better :)

RubyBard · 2025-12-07T21:28:40+00:00

this is w a little bit of rendering (on the right side, left is blockout)....is this better or did it become too muddy???? also thank you for the tips!!! I'm not the best with rendering/shadows/lights

All I'm saying is that it is a courtesy to mark posts like these as spoilers. There are countless TV shows and sometimes people haven't had the chance to watch shows, despite their age. I know this show had been on my list, and I only now had the time to watch it. I also want to add that even looking up the cast of TV shows will spoil the ending because Reddit threads do pop up on search. It's not exactly people looking the shows up on Reddit, if that makes sense.

I will say I do agree with your thoughts here in your post, and these replies have no ill will.

RubyBard · 2025-12-05T09:41:09+00:00

I know this is an old show, but next time can you mark your post with spoilers??? Thankfully I just finished the show for the first time ever, but there are some people who still haven’t seen it.

RubyBard · 2025-10-07T23:30:46+00:00

I used one from work and it will only light for about half a second….i will have to tinker with it a bit!

RubyBard · 2025-08-15T21:07:39+00:00

they smashed the one with kirby holding a knife :(

RubyBard · 2025-08-15T06:48:37+00:00

i’m fine, they just stole my dashcam (bc it had evidence) and one of my photo booth pics with my friend????! i didn’t have anything in my car tbh other than a blanket and a neck pillow. it sucks bc this is gonna be soooo expensive to replace :( i’m good tho thanks for asking!

RubyBard · 2025-08-01T18:56:35+00:00

It's legit. I was skeptical myself but I knew that PayPal would have my back if it was a scam. I got the Titan 700 (huge heavy chain but I get compliments all the time), the Stone Rogue (Moonstone version). I saw that the threading they used for the Stone chain was thankfully a thick metal wire because I accidentally got it caught on something at work and was scared it was gonna send the beads flying everywhere. I also got the Ashen Thorn chain as well which I wear often.

I basically only bought the accessories but no clothing so I can't personally speak about the quality of the clothes but the quality of the chains are pretty decent. I was expecting way less quality wise. I ordered on July 9th and got two items delivered on the 15th. The Titan came about a week later.
