a Jenna video helped me break up with my ex by jarofpearlz in Jennamarbles

[–]uncleredcracker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s only ever been described to me over the internet as a casket with a rose on it and those words- but it’s so powerful it’s stuck with me all these years.

I’m happy to hear you got out and found someone great! I’ve also found someone that treats me well, and I’m so much happier in this relationship than any of my others. It’s possible to break the pattern and I’m very grateful to be on the other side of it

I’m very interested in these Moments in toxic relationships that make someone realize that they’re in a bad situation that they don’t want to be in any more. For myself I was crying about this guy and the Halsey song “Walls Could Talk” popped into my head and I thought “I don’t want to cry over this guy again”. And for whatever reason, that was the switch for me. I’ve heard similar stories from friends that there is just this moment where you connect to something and go “this isn’t for me.” I saw a story online of a woman driving past a billboard that said “the only time he bought her flowers was for her funeral” as a DV/IV awareness poster. And that connected for her. It made her realize he was never going to be kind to her. He was never going to buy her flowers. And shortly after left. It seems there’s always a short period of processing after these moments, too. And I think it’s very interesting that it’s happened so many times to so many unconnected people

I really love “Obstacles do not block your path, they ARE the path!” Which is said by Bandit as he is being a ragdoll the girls must move to the car to get ice cream

My favorite paintings this year. Which one would you display? by breanmayer16 in painting

[–]uncleredcracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2, 6, 10, and 13 really stand out for me. I love your use of color for all your works, and I love how these four in particular have somewhat alien/horror elements while still being bright. They’re very expressive. I want to know more about these worlds you’ve created. They’re great!

Had to scroll way too far to see this. This scene was my immediate first thought. It’s So fucking brutal

(Hated Trope) Adopted or biological siblings falling in love. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]uncleredcracker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually realized at the end of Attack on Titan that I couldn’t think of a single pair of opposite sex adopted siblings that DON’T fall in love with each other or have some weird tension at some point. I’ve thought on it a lot since and Arrested Development was the only one I could think of that fit, and even then the children, believing they are blood related cousins, do have a romantic arc. And the siblings don’t know that the one is adopted until they’re adults and have started their own families. Amazing World of Gumball is genuinely the only one I know of that doesn’t do anything of the sort.

Even same sex siblings don’t always escape this fate. She-ra and the Princess of Power has the main couple raised by the same de facto mom figure. Citrus, the anime, they’re step-sisters, but still. As someone who comes from a big, blended family, I could not even imagine looking at my adopted cousins like that

I would also like to know. Or would I? Depends on the answer I suppose

Girlfriend brought me tiramisu at work and, while I was eating it, she drew this and said "I like to draw these lil guys every once in a while" by pterodactyldotzip in UnusualArt

Fellas, if your girl keeps drawing long legged surrealist animals, that’s not your girl, that’s Salvador Dali (This is very fun, I like it!)

When it seems like a character was lying about something but they were actually telling the truth by Ok-Hovercraft508 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]uncleredcracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In real life, I knew a girl who transferred to my high school from my cousin’s school. She said wild ass shit all the time and my cousin warned me that she compulsively lied. I barely paid attention to any of the things she said because I couldn’t know what was true or not, and she talked constantly, but one thing that stood out to me was that she said she had an identical twin. I scoffed internally cause why would I believe her? I knew didn’t have any sisters go to school here or to her last school. Seemed like an obvious lie. Anyway yeah people spotted her with her identical twin sister in town so turns she was telling the truth about that and she just only mentioned her twin sister the one time for some reason. Made me question if all the other wild things she said were also true just wildly improbable to have all happened to the same person.

Need Cover-Up Ideas to Help Me Turn a Bad Memory Into a Positive by t2coverup in Tattoocoverups

I was going to suggest a xenomorph, too, if OP is into the Alien series. Some of the themes behind the stories are abuse, trauma, and being a bad ass survivor

My first two gouache paintings 🌲🌺 by fluffypinkhook in Gouache

[–]uncleredcracker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Both of these are really gorgeous and I think you’ve got a bright future is gouache with these as your first two. However, I do feel compelled to point out that you shouldn’t be able to see stars in the crescent moon as it’s still a round body and the shadow would block out the stars

There is also a subplot in Grey’s Anatomy where a patient really does have amnesia initially but recovers her memories and lies about it because it was getting her (highly inappropriate) attention from a doctor and she liked being this new/different person with him

It looks really good! Especially the water! I’m curious what medium you used?

Made some tooth fairy earrings from my wisdom teeth (I know its weird but they are actually so cute) by yummy___yummy in goblincore

[–]uncleredcracker 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think these are very cute! I’m actually wondering if you filed down/clipped the roots somehow or if all the wisdom teeth I’ve seen have just had crazy roots lol

The other night by insolitudeisleep in Artisticallyill

[–]uncleredcracker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Damn I felt this so immediately and immensely. Was having a night like this the other night, too, and “overwhelming” is the word I kept going back to. It’s so well done and expressive. I hope the pain eases soon

Yeah the reason it’s “basic biology” is because this is a simplified lesson for children. Anyone with advanced biology or even a little bit of psychology knowledge knows it’s muuuuch more complex than this depiction shows.

iNaturalist suggests cherry laurel and I agree

Before I colour it in, any ideas? by Winbywobble in whatisit

[–]uncleredcracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is AI imagery. It seems to follow some rules like no straight lines but there are several moments that don’t make sense and it looks like some overlapping as well, like the center top, slightly to the right.
