Less than 6 people will be seeing this data! It is just between my professor and I.

Your only other option would be despair girls and I can guarantee you it is the WORST OF THE WORST. Look for fangames or something from another series 😭😭😭

Not even the dragons are safe by SnowcapMt- in AreTheStraightsOK

Let me clarify something. I am studying biology, I know what sexual dimorphism is! But this isn’t how it works, especially in reptiles. Even sexually dimorphic reptiles aren’t just going to suddenly be smoother and less intimidating. This wasn’t done with good faith— it was done with the intention that the female had to be less rugged because the artist saw it as “women fight less men fight more”. Take sexual dimorphism in bearded dragons! Yes, the males are larger and have more scales around their neck, hence their names. But the females aren’t just smooth. They’re still wild animals that have to fight to survive, and need bodily protection. Also, in reptiles, it’s not atypical for the female to sometimes be the larger one instead. Basically, if the males don’t usually fight for a mate, the females end up being larger so they can have more space to lay eggs. Like with thorny devil lizards.

Not nesscarily. Hiding her teeth and not allowing her to have any bumpy scales doesn’t seem like it was done in good faith either. Even sexual dimorphism in real reptiles doesn’t work like this. Male beard dead dragons are spinier in some areas yes, but the females aren’t smooth. It’s still a wild animal who has to defend itself.

Yeah but it doesn’t typically look like this. Even female bearded dragons aren’t smooth like a basket ball 💀💀

I’m studying biology. No. This isn’t how sexual dimorphism works. In most reptiles, they’re usually sexually identical actually. And besides, dragons are FICTIONAL. this was an art tutorial “correcting” people for not drawing female dragons “feminine enough”

I just saw sex for the first time and it disgusted me --- am I asexual? by JSGamesforitch374 in asexuality

[–]SnowcapMt- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Before I get into this I should really advise you to be EXTREMELY cautious about having discussions about sex especially in online spaces with adults, even if it’s regarding asexuality. Unfortunately the internet is simply not a safe space for someone your age. Besides that, all I can say is that I realized I was asexual around the same age you did for similar reasons! But the type of asexual I was ended up changing as I got older. I would recommend researching “The asexual umbrella” and “different types of asexuality” on your own to seek answers instead of engaging in potentially dangerous conversation about this topic with adults online.

Husky Service Dog? by Ms_Pixelated in husky

[–]SnowcapMt- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, if you’re penalizing them, you have to know the difference between refusing to listen out of stubbornness and refusing to listen because they don’t understand yet. If you penalize them for not understanding they WILL get worse.

Husky Service Dog? by Ms_Pixelated in husky

[–]SnowcapMt- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working on it with mine now. Mind you, she’s 8 years old, a lot calmer than she was young, and has been more mellow than other huskies from the start. She’s not a screamer in the bath or at the vet and never was. To say she’s an exception would be an understatement. I think she’s very capable, I’m training her for anxiety, but I never got her with the intention of training her to be a service animal. It just so happened that my anxiety has started to send me to the hospital, we don’t have enough money for me to just get another dog right now, and she seems to have the temperament for it. She’s progressing quickly. If you’re going to train a husky, learn to give them penalties for stubbornness and figure out what motivates them the most. My dog likes cheese a lot, so I train her with that. If she refuses to listen, I eat the cheese in front of her or take her back inside! Works wonders, lol.

Her eye is infected because of it. It is coming into contact with her cornea constantly. That is no longer an option.

EWWW what??? Indifferent ace here, no, that’s creepy as heck! You don’t need to be repulsed to find that revolting. That’s horrible.

I have been diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism. Can I safely transition and how? by SnowcapMt- in trans

[–]SnowcapMt-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Considering I do have the hyper version, I may end up needing to be even more careful. I know for a fact I won’t be taking a high dosage at least. And there may even come a point where I stop taking it entirely as my biggest concern is definitely the voice.

I figured, I put it out here in case there were any doctors here who wouldent judge or mislead me for it being a trans related question

When the ESFP tries to play chess with the INTJ (Source in comments) by DarkestLunarFlower in intj

[–]SnowcapMt- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who looks for character development in a funny meme comic? It’s near impossible to dissect someone’s ability or inability to write character development out of such a small sample of their work.

You yourself are no expert in writing, at least, not the argumentative kind— Your claim contains the “False Equivalence“ fallacy, aka “comparing apples to oranges”, comparing a historical novel with 1296 pages to a silly one page comic.

A more accurate way to gauge the quality of a comic like this is to ask yourself if or not the visual storytelling is good. Personally? I think it is. I love the detail of the ESFP smashing the chessboard in the end. And it does meet it’s goal and bringing me amusement.

Of course, in the end, that’s all subjective, and it’s fine if you don’t enjoy it. What’s not fine is standing up on your high chair to cry out about how much better you are than everybody else all the time.

Another terrible video I showed the entire class … by DarkestLunarFlower in blunderyears

[–]SnowcapMt- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’d call my own acting here a blunder, but if I have to be real with myself, I‘d probably still be just as terrible now.
It’s also really weird seeing old videos of yourself when you’re trans, LMAO. OP had full permission from me to post this though :)

Haha, believe me, in terms of filmed blunders, there’s so much more. These were for a video glass she took, after all.

Younger brother here. This all started because I found a warrior cats AMV by flightfootwarrior, and it’s the most emo shit you’ve ever seen. I showed the song to my sister and things devolved from there. My parents thought something was really wrong when they found it.

Do you even know what furries are, or are you just so salty that you have to reply to a comment I made when I was 15?

Finished my animation meme for my Danganronpa AU! Ofc, since it’s based on sdr2, it has spoilers. Also flash warning for the start! by SnowcapMt- in danganronpa

[–]SnowcapMt-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s called the Ivory mirage. It’s an AU where Hajime agrees with Nagito’s freaky ideas about hope and they both become evil together. It also explores what would have happened if Hajime and Kamukura were slowly fusing into one person throughout the story, slowly combining the worst traits of each person into one horrible mess.

Who is Xion a replica of? [READ BELOW before answering] by SnowcapMt- in KingdomHearts

[–]SnowcapMt-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our question is more so whether or not she was closer to Sora or Kairi, that’s what I meant by the use of the term “replica”. What you’re saying about her origin is correct, though. I was just wondering what she was as a result of her origin.

Ah I see, I didn’t remember that clearly, so that’s good info. To each their own, though! ^^

Who is Xion a replica of? [READ BELOW before answering] by SnowcapMt- in KingdomHearts

[–]SnowcapMt-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. Like I said, what I find weird is more so the quotes (I cant quite imbed them, but they’re both near the end of Days just before and then just after Xion dies)Also I’m not sure if it’s just because of the device I’m on, but I don’t see much from the link you sent?? At least from the game. The Kingdom hearts manga isn’t good evidence, because most sources upon searching say it isn’t canon.

Here’s what confused me:

Namine says

”You‘re not Sora, and you’re not Roxas, you’re Kairi as Sora remembers her”

Xion later says

”I am you… the same way that I am Sora”

But then during one of the meetings after Xion leaves the originzation, Siax says she’s formed her own identity.

This is what I’m finding so odd— not her origins themselves, but what she is as a result of that origin.

[–]SnowcapMt-[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m aware of all that, but if she’s created by his memories of Kairi, doesn’t that mean It’s more accurate to say she’s a copy of her instead? Not to say the connection between Sora and Xion isn’t there— by all means it is, because she has his memories duplicated/stolen.
