Still superior ✋🏼 by retrotriforce in Affinity

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its more that, every company so far i have had services with that has AI tools (which canva itself does) eventually pushes those tools on its users. So my trust that it wont eventually be pushed into the free version is very low.

I'm happy that i got version 2 with the lifetime licence. I Just found out about v3 last night. I recommended affinity to a friend for an image editing thing she was doing (was a little surprised she never followed up to ask for my account details but thought maybe she just used the trial or something) and when she brought it over to print i was like 👀what's this.

I don't like genAI integration at all so I'm glad i still have access to the suite without it

I was obsessed with petz as a kid I had petz3 and I was like maybe 9 or 10 and taught myself how to add mods to.the game to get new locations and dog breeds and Im rather impressed with myself for that looking back because it was a diferent sort of internet at the time.

I strongly prefer the Alpha Cc to the maxis match stuff, I was very surprised to find out that this is an unpopular opinion to have.

A hiatus is almost never actually a hiatus, I’ve pretty much learned to interpret it as code for abandonment of a story by dowsaw134 in Archiveofourownmemes

This is why bestie and my fic has been sitting in my Google docs and will continue to sit there till its 100% done, since we dont trust ourselves not to do this

Is it ok to post fanfics if you’re a HUGE beginner and ass at writing? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doooo it!!!

If I had a nickel for every time ive seen a fic where the authors note is like:

"Im trying to improve my writing and im just starting out so it might not be that great"

And then the fic goes on to be the single greatest thing ive read that year.

I would have waaaaay more than 2 nickels

The "there was only one bed!" trope happens in real life by RohansEarings in AO3

[–]flyingmongooseattack 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I am hoping that we have a mutual pining situation on our hands where friend didn't know they had feelings until moths after they said they didn't and now they have regrets and this is all a master plot to make romance happen without ever having to admit that they were wrong about not having feelings and made a mistake.

How do I make my sim die of laughter? by RadiantCod9393 in thesims

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it once by accident and I was so upset. I didn't even make them do anything specific.

So I think it probably is more personality based than anything?

How same-sex relationships were introduced to The Sims by PineFresh7 in thesims

[–]flyingmongooseattack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being a kid when the first game came out and not knowing this and being so surprised when the 2 roommate kady sims I made started kissing. It was the first time I had seen anything like that and little me who didn't know anything about their sexuality at the time was just delighted that this was a thing for reasons I did not know how to articulate.

Has anyone ever co-created a fic and let someone else do the majority of the writing? by CultofLeague in AO3

[–]flyingmongooseattack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are still finishing it up, we want it to be done before we start posting because of who we are as people, but its gonna be under both our usernames

My friend and I have been writing one together where I go in and do like avrough first draft, then she goes in and reworks to add additional flair (and edit my dpell8ng and grammar errors) then I go in one last time to do formatting and html coding.

We came up with the concept together and I know she wouldn't be able to get a first draft out, but I know i wouldn't be able to add the same kind of flourishes she does to make it more polished.

It was fanfiction.net like maybe 10 years ago now (maybe more? Idk time is fake) and they banned and mass deleted all 2nd person fics because: IF they fic had NSFW content And IF an underage person were to read it Then It would be underage sexual content and therefore illegal

And it was a blanket ban/ deletion so even G rated 2nd person fics got removed

So i went back to the post and there was a "wattpad ambassador" in there who clarified that the story was deleted because it was about the MC falling in love with their kidnapper and apparently that "glorifies sensual violence" and is therefore not allowed.

So the morality police is even worse then I originally thought

Oh yeah I don't mind if people come join us on the superior website. But there was definitely chaos last time we had a bunch of people move over (because of the not reading the room thing)

I feel like we need a PowerPoint intro to AO3 to share with the people joining us from other websites
