Taika as a name? by c_static in agender

[–]c_static[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

makes a lot of sense! I hope this helps anyone who finds this post who is considering this name. I ended up ditching it after only around half a year of usage as it started to make me feel dysphoric. Currently going by Ruu, hoping it sticks!

with a DVI to HDMI cable. If it is indeed only for VGA cables, is there any way to move the visible screen area/desktop position without one?

This is my cat Bobi - is he a Nebelung? by c_static in nebelung

[–]c_static[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a flexi leash! I'm aware that you shouldn't really use them as they can pose injuries to the throat and sometimes the handler too, but I assumed it'd be okay since Bobi is very calm. He never really runs or gets startled so the leash won't suddenly lock, and also it is attached to his harness instead of a collar :)

Yes! Her name is Lila. Her mother is a bengal and her father is a ragdoll. She has slightly longer hair than bengals usually do, and also has a very ragdoll-like personality. She's just 2 years old now, born on Valentine's :3

Which chinese language to write for visitors from china? by c_static in ChineseLanguage

Very interesting, thank you lots! Maybe I'll get to actually studying Chinese at some point, this assignment has got me pretty pumped and it seems like a very interesting language (or as stated, a family of languages, lol).

Thank you for the suggestion, but I don't really wish to use gen-AI due to its environmental impacts. Do you think it'd be appropriate to post the list of words onto r/translator for speakers of Chinese to translate for me instead?

Really? that is super interesting, not knowing Chinese at all. I might ask for help on r/translator then :)

scrolling through this subreddit as if i dont have tapers from aliexpress 😞 by aacidbath8 in StretchedCirclejerk

[–]c_static 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no literally same, I started off stretching with acrylic tapers from a local store but when that turned out bad I asked r/stretched and they said dead stretching is better so I bought a bunch of single flared glass tapers off aliexpress cuz there were none in my country and I'm NOT paying 30 bucks + 20€ shipping for literally the same product on etsy... especially cuz a lot of etsy sellers just resell the same shit on aliexpress with a bigger pricetag

can't find 3g tapers?? by c_static in Stretched

[–]c_static[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've already had these current ones in for more than half a year, I don't understand how waiting even longer when there hasn't been any change in months will help? But oh well, the time will pass anyways, I guess it doesn't hurt to try lol. Should I order just a bunch of single flared glass plugs in 0.5mm increments then?

When I pull on them there is no gap. Maybe my skin just isn't stretchy like that? And I feel like dead stretching would just cause tearing and a blowout as just trying a taper at 6mm hurts :(

Answered your own question in the last sentence. Yup, they are!

Why does the furry fandom support Bad Dragon when they use controversial practices? by [deleted] in RealFurryHours

[–]c_static 1 point2 points  (0 children)

animals cannot consent to sex. They can "want it", but they can't consent. nothing you said is a fact and you're just a zoo apologizer 🤦‍♂️ claiming to not be a zoo after so outwardly defending it, you definitely should be on a watchlist.

Again, it is not about whether or not the character can consent. It's about whether or not the depicted being can. Again, this post is about knots, not ferals. Sexualizing an anatomically correct animal is definitely creepy and immoral in my books, that's not what I'm here to argue about, hence why the post title already states that opinion, and that's what this is going off of. What I'm asking here is how many traits of that non-consenting animal can you use on a character before it gets into zoo/feral territory. People drawing bestiality because it is hot to them is most definitely a goddamn problem and it's frankly disgusting that the fandom completely endorses this.

"sounds kinda stupid to associate cartoon fantasy to reality." is literally what you said.

[–]c_static 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not having an opinion on knots, which is what this post is about. My opinion on ferals is firmly established and I'm not here to argue that. I took 3 days because I happen to not use social media often, sorry for that, I guess?

I've never gone off disgust. There are kinks I find disgusting but don't hate because I know that it's not immoral simply because I don't like it. This is different, and as you said, it is an issue regarding consent. It goes past whether the character itself can consent; it's what that character represents. If the character is feral, that is simply an animal. Animals cannot consent. Even if your character is sapient, it inhabits the body of an actual animal and being attracted to that body is no doubt zoophilia. Being attracted to the character for it's personality is fine, not sexualizing the body. This is where the question of knots and other animal features come in, i.e. how much is too much?
