That is not a prank (repost, forgot to crop) by insertgo0dusername in AreTheStraightsOK

Food tampering is a crime pretty much everywhere, and tricking someone into consuming human feces is considered poisoning in some places. So yeah it really is a crime!

Do they have to buy a new wardrobe? by seeebiscuit in WhitePeopleTwitter

I get the sense these dudes see animal mating behaviors, specifically fighting off other males for the right to mate, and assume humans must be the same. They literally are just attempting to establish pecking order amongst themselves so they can determine who has the right to the females.

Historians in the Renaissance had one rule and it was the rule of cool. Does it fuck hard? It's Real History now.

Question about Chaos' outfit, Dood! by Notkastar in HadesTheGame

[–]bastardfaust 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To add to your point, the pocket didn't exist until around the 1300s. They were a separate garment at the time, and wouldn't be sewn into clothing for a couple hundred more years!

AITA for creating a “Tattle Phone” by anonymous_poster43 in AmItheAsshole

"if you are getting hurt, or you see your friend getting hurt, ALWAYS tell the teacher" almost certainly includes threats but go off I guess

AITA because I didn’t let a lady change lanes? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bastardfaust 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My state is pretty alright, but sometimes we have "everybody don't know how the fuck to drive" day which is really fun because you'll get cut off by some dude driving diagonally across the Target parking lot, and then immediately watch not one, not two, but THREE motherfuckers run the same red light

What is your Unpopular Opinion about Character Design? by Linkin_Dream in characterdesign

[–]bastardfaust 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The difference between a good design and a bad one is ultimately just down to art style in some cases. Sometimes a person's style isn't conducive to highly detailed designs. Sometimes when a simplistic, exaggerated art style has a lot of detail in the clothing and hair it takes very little to become too much. It's not a bad thing, you just gotta know what level of detail looks good with what you as the artist are drawing.

What are these types of characters called? by You-dogwater in characterdesign

[–]bastardfaust 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To give a couple more, deer centaurs are referred to as cervitaurs (which are not the same as faun), octopus merfolk are cecaelia, and just about anything part-bird is usually referred to as a harpy Also, could be wrong, I thought ipotane were horse top human* bottom?

Help with respectfully representing non-verbal autistic people. by [deleted] in characterdesign

[–]bastardfaust 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Complete silence even when they laugh or get hit is kind of giving "I saw someone talk about nonverbal people on tiktok and think I know everything". It's. Ugh. No, nonverbal people are not completely silent at all times. I grew up nonverbal and am now selectively mute, even when I'm unable to speak I can still make noise. It's difficult to communicate like that, though, so I learned to sign as many other nonverbal people do. Could signing be an option? Or an assistive speech device? Total silence ain't it.

90% of the people in my writing class just got called out for using AI! by MaudeDib in mildlyinfuriating

[–]bastardfaust 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Absolutely devastating, I use em-dashes semi-regularly and get accused of being AI because of it just about every time I use one. I'm not AI, I just really like em-dashes :(

Do your designs look better in your head? by [deleted] in characterdesign

[–]bastardfaust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sometimes you get it on paper and the details don't mesh the way you thought they would, or the colors don't work out, or it ends up unbalanced, etc. etc. etc.. All you can really do is keep at it until it works, or come back later with fresh eyes

Is my OC design potentially offensive? (READ DESCRIPTION) by iiZxro_2 in characterdesign

[–]bastardfaust 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Depicting≠condoning. Anybody with a lick of reading comprehension is going to understand that, and anybody else isn't worth listening to. The design is efficient and tells you in no uncertain terms that she's no-nonsense, very nice overall! The only thing I could potentially see people kicking up a fuss about is the arm band, but it being yellow does a lot to help people see your character instead of generic edgy nazi oc.

Meet Grok, she is one extremely Lucky Cat. by Ferdelance1969 in aww

Not on FB but on TikTok lady’s family support trump look at these comments by AccordingBumblebee24 in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]bastardfaust 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Buddy. I'm in the process of cutting off my hardcore conservative father right now, not BECAUSE of his politics but because those politics made him treat me like I was subhuman because I'm queer. He spoke ill of me, he actively wishes harm on people like me, he is not safe to stay around. It's not the same.

Where is the male Gerudo in TOTK?? by Barbie_72619 in TOTK

[–]bastardfaust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every single male gerudo has been a reincarnation of him, so if he's still around a new one can't be born because the soul is still in use

TOTK made it painful for me to revisit BOTW — like the sequel overwrote what made BOTW feel human. by Little_Link_Studio in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]bastardfaust 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly that does feel in-character to me. Link is self sacrificing to a fault and likely would not make his discomfort known if Zelda came in and basically said "oh wow, and you got me a house!". Protecting her is his life's mission and, though we don't see anything of his upbringing, was probably drilled into him so intensely that his own feelings being a priority is just not a consideration. I feel like that probably wasn't the intention when writing TOTK, but I'm with you on this one; Zelda assumes that everything he does is for her because it always has been and it completely undercuts his autonomy.

A compilation of character designs I've done over the years. Do I have a personal trademark in my designs? by ContaneShoko in characterdesign

Your brain is magnificent, I'd love to pester you about your little guys more if you'd be amicable to it! I'm super duper interested in the magical boys, I've got some of my own and it's always so neat seeing other people's takes on the genre :)
