the hades art is good but it's not sexy but they act like it is, it feels devoid of emotion tbh

25 years ago this would be rejected for looking too much like concept art, it has a real concept art vibe to it you used to see for moviemaking materials. I can't explain it well, I'm sorry.

@sun So far down the "undermine beauty" rabbit hole that they psyopped themselves into thinking it's sexy

ALSO, you can find WAY SEXIER than even that pic from random artists on Japanese twitter. There is a reason that manga has almost completely erased the american comic industry, they are objectively better at it except for a few western standouts

@nerthos they sit in a board room and decide things like how can we imply this character has big tits but not actually show them

@sun it's also mega "safe horny" and even quite ugly in places, that one face shot in the upper left is just... there's just something super wrong about it

All these women characters and there's a sheer lack of femininity

@sun Spiritual eunuchs, devoid of God's grace.

@coolboymew the artist is clearly skilled but this is just not their forte, they were a good artist that was incorrectly picked.

@sun most to least attractive

bottom right, top right

power gap

bottom left, anime girl

power gap

top left

@sun I'd have to see the rest of their art to judge, but bottom left is a seriously good design that still ultimately leaves me feeling nothing whatsoever

To be this bad at being good takes skills

@vriska @sun Effects of tumblr exposition upon the brain

@coolboymew imagine being an artist and you have to dodge ideological minefields instead of expressing yourself

@sun @coolboymew Considering most of the people laying those mines down are artists themselves, I can't be upset. There are options to break ideological containment. It's on the person wanting free expression to take them.

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun the other problem is that internet artists want to be in the "big club", especially the animators who either want to be picked up by a studio or by some outfit like Glitch Productions.

They're worried about offending other people like that and especially the big wigs. Nevermind the fact that social media isn't like Furaffinity/NG where the admins have "skin in the game" with regards to online community drama.

@sun in the defense of hades it is art that is both a small part of the screen, meant to be readable, and not distract from the text all too much, and easily changeable on the head enough to account for different facial expressions and head angles.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @sun I'd imagine that there are plenty of Monica Rial-type gatekeepers that aggressively keep anyone that strays too far from their norms from taking off. I do agree that the whole notion of there being "art communities" with ideological checklists is a major problem, though. Just draw, animate, whatever, and let the work do the talking.

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Oh for sure, it's even worse with the ones who can't handle when the hordes raid their images with dumbass gifs and they're ill-equipped to handle it. Of course, that was also a problem going back to the DeviantArt age, a lot of people trolled people on that site by saying "your art is shit" or "fuckin weird bro".

@themilkman @sun Fire Emblem did that too, but the right way.

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Also I should add something else: internet artists are petty and spiteful towards anyone who even gets too successful in that sphere and might have stepped on some people along the way.

Look at Vivziepop, many of the people who shit on her do it because she managed to break out of that scene. There's some valid reasons to shit on her or her work, but they've been overshadowed by the BlueSky people screeching at her wishing that they could be in her shoes with a big name production.

Or how a problematic artist who drew edgy shit a few years ago will always have someone tagging along every time someone features his art to dump the Google Doc/screenshots. To them, it's no different than an artist actually doing heinous shit.

@nerthos @sun the anime artstyle gets way too much leeway because it's associated with the content that they are usually a part of not because the artstyle itself is good, don't get me wrong the artstyle is good and i am a fan of it, but the reason most do this argument is not because it is superior, but because they associate it with the medium.

it's kind of like how a lot of Video game soundtracks work, the game gives the tension and context to the song, so both end up elevating each other, but video game soundtracks are not above and beyond usual music, it's because the context of the game elevates the emotional context of the song, without that emotional context (or the knowledge of the context) the songs aren't all that great, not calling VGOSTs bad either, they serve their roles as video game soundtracks well, but they are designed for the game and rely on the game and surrounding context for their emotional resonance and tension.

@themilkman @sun I pointed at Fire Emblem specifically because it is good, not because it's anime-ish. Plenty of oriental aesthetic games that do it really wrong.

@themilkman @nerthos I've been a major comic fan since childhood and there are pros and cons to both western and japanese comics, but the illustration and the stories, but at this point manga completely eclipses western comics. there are many great western comics however that would never happen in japan.

@nerthos @themilkman western gamedevs often have open contempt for japanese rpgs. I think they have a point but somehow this became a conduit for open racism lol

@sun @themilkman I think they're massive faggots, they should be honestly racist not crypto racist.
For example, I won't touch anything korean, because I hate koreans. I don't find excuses for it, I just say it. Playstation 1 ass low polygon "people"

@nerthos @themilkman they're not racist but it reveals a crack in their bullshit, which is that in other contexts, if you complain about a different culture's practices not the people, they call you a racist

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Then on the other hand you have the right-wing sphere which either makes obvious political shit (see: Vox Day, the Comicsgate bunch), or something mid-at-best. Some of them are retired and only decided to be chuddy after they moved on from the industry, but their creative output isn't the same as it was back in the day. What has Marty O Donnell done since being the Halo OST guy, or the Earthworm Jim guy?

It makes artists who want to be chuddy have a uphill battle because they are not going to get the same amount of money or e-fame they would be if they said the lines or even stayed silent. I've seen in chats "struggle artists" as I call them lament this and basically admit that they went left wing because nobody on the right would lift a finger, and they felt as if they would make more money/be more talked about if they went the other way.

That's not counting the artists who refuse to try because they feel that the tim heideckers and blockhead joes of the world are going to gatekeep them at any turn. World Peace flaming out was a huge blackpill, and people were split on if that interview was either Sam nuking his chances of being famous or the showbiz version of the KLF Grindcore award show concert. Even 10+ years later, I still feel this blackpilling mindset going on.

Nobody ever breaks down those events of people getting canceled like the Air Crash Investigation show or the USCSB YouTube channel. Instead they think that anything that happens is a result of the powers that be trying to keep someone they liked down. For every person saying Sam needed a tard wrangler/PR guy to keep him from stunts like the interview or powerleveling on Twitter, there were people who were also convinced it was solely Adult Swim trying to stop him.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday I think vox day's family is rich they owned a big publishing company or something?

@sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun hard to think it wasn't when Smiling Friends also got mysteriously cancelled last I know, straight after the AI indian episode

@coolboymew @sendpaws @mrsaturday the what

@sun @coolboymew @mrsaturday Vox Day did have a publishing company and he also was in an electronic music group in the 90s, best known for having one of the guys in it make the songs for Marathon 2/Infinity.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday he used to write game reviews syndicated for newspapers before he flipped to right wing grifter

@sun @mrsaturday @sendpaws AI Indian. There was a robot that did everything but it was an Indian man. Literally the one meme

@sun @coolboymew @mrsaturday https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZEK8kAhV9s he appears in this video btw

@coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun The thing with Smiling Friends is while I've never seen it, it did reference a lot of weird parts of internet culture.

I'm talking appearances by people like Doug Walker or Perry Caravello.

@sun @sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday

Signs of Right-wing grifter:

* Excessive Jesus
* Too much Constitution
* Flags, flags, everywhere
* Simple theories that explain everything in ten minutes

@amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun what do you think of vivek giving himself an october surprise?

@sun @sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday

He's part Mexican

@sendpaws @mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun

And then there's William Shockley

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

I do not know anything about this, I apologize.

@amerika @sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday he's part native american and he used to bring it up all the time. one time he went on the altright podcast "the right stuff" and tried to virtue signal it and they laughed at him

@sun @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws

As they should

Most people who think they are part "Native American" are simply wrong

Sort of like how half the people who think they are "Irish" are Scots-Irish

I am fortunate to have centuries of ancestor data or I might be worried

@sun @nerthos @themilkman

I find actual "racism" abhorrent

But criticism of diversity? Essential

@amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun GOP diversity hire candidate from India who has been booed at rallies, shit on by everyone on Twitter, and recently decided to run a campaign ad that backfired so dramatically that he's been getting community noted.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

I always tell people I vote for WASP candidates

And I do

If the GOP runs someone non-WASP but the Dems offer a WASP, I vote for the WASP

@amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun oh it gets worse, a while back he tweeted that Americans were lazy and all. The backlash he got was immense. There was a rival campaign ad where they actually had Ohio workers reading this tweet out loud. He is probably the biggest political grifter to exist in politics and he's in my state 💀
https://x.com/VivekGRamaswamy/status/1872312139945234507

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

Any time the GOP starts that "get a job, bootstraps etc" stuff, I wonder how people with obvious traumatic brain injuries are able to hold down jobs in politics.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

Why do people vote Democrat?
Democrats are smarter.

Why do people vote Republican?
Republicans are more realistic... sometimes.

It's pretty grim

I think Trump is the master troll. In the same week that members of his cabinet were citing the two-century figure for the lifespan of democracies, he kicked off "America 250" celebrations.

LOL

@amerika @sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday law and order, except when its police or military or intelligence agencies breaking the law

@sun @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws

Small government, except when it comes to reducing government.

@amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun And sleeping on cultural stuff too, while bitching that everything is libtard propaganda

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

The solutions that are non-solutions:

* Capitalism will cure social decay (no)
* Christianity will fix degeneracy (lol)
* Patriotism will restore unity (in name only)

@sun Only a gay man would find the women on the right unattractive

@scathach the art is good looking and I would consider them esthetically pleasing

@sun Then what's the problem?

@scathach safe horny

@sun What does that mean?

@scathach arousal without arousal

when I learn more about make up and so on, I started to realize that my first impression will always be totally wrong. so I need to take a second look, third look, or fifth look to finally understand what happening in the still image.

but I agree that maybe the hades art isn't "sexy". I think the artist intent didn't fully went to "sexy". something that resembles sadness, loneliness, but keeping the strong look(?) despite with a little sexiness showing the bare skin and a bit cleavage.

meanwhile japanese artist esp the kind being displayed on the left, always direct with emotion and message. that is the power of artist that lives in social media, know where the hook at and know how to make strong of it when people scroll through things (?)

@sun I don't get it, why would there be any arousal at all?

@ganbold I didn't post the whole discourse, there are characters where the whole point is eros and they are basically in the same style, the artist is quite good at what they do but not at eros. in general though a complaint is a lot of the art is subtly "off" which tbh you can complain about a lot of western comic style illustration like that where someone gets amazing draftsman skills but can't draw an emotive face very well

@scathach I didn't post the whole discourse, there are specific characters that are supposed to ramp this up and it doesn't work

@scathach I think I fucked up because I just took a snippet out of context and posted it

@sun Makes sense

@scathach tbh I am gonna backtrack a bit because I don't agree with all the thigns people are shitting on because I do like the art style of hades in a lot of ways but some of the faces are kinda scuffed and it didn't work for a few of the characters. not a sin.

I hate this street shitting motherfucker so goddamn much that basically the only outcome I actually care about on November 3rd is that this faggot gets absolutely wrecked in Ohio. I don't know anything about Acton aside from a reasonable assumption that she's standard issue Democrat foid #53246. I don't care about her at all, this is about Vivek being made to eat shit, and not in the way he'd enjoy.

The Ohio GOP needs to be torn a new asshole for nominating Vivek in the first place. Jersh covered the profoundly corrupt machinations behind it a while ago.

@Hoss @amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun he's doubling down on this btw he's going to get fucked so hard it's going to sound like a call center

@sun You omitted the atrocity that is Hades 2 Hestia.

@scathach @sun I've actually played Hades 2 and about 2/3 of the cast of alleged Greeks are sun-blackened Zulus. many of them are obese or have skin diseases that are trendy with Tumblrites. that game's negrophilia is out of control.

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach "make half the greeks black" I want to know the mental process

@scathach @sun which one

@sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun vivziepop seems cool she put a lot of effort into hazbin. i dont like helluva boss and i havent seen the rest of hazbin but the pilot was incredibly impressive for a web toon

@scathach @sun woman

@scathach @sun i think the ones on the right look deformed and ugly, like hitsuji goods' tranny art. with your pen and paper you have the ability to draw the most beautiful thing and you choose to draw a fetal alcohol syndrome'd ugly loser

@sun sexy is when boobs i guess

@nerthos @vriska @sun i am the thinking man azn thus i can only declare things sexy that dangle large secondary sex characteristics directly in my face
oh woe is me, where have all the designs that only have me in mind gone

@MalibuSunrise @vriska @sun nah

@MalibuSunrise @nerthos @sun straight men are incapable of telling the difference between sexy and attractive

@vriska @MalibuSunrise @sun Things can be attractive without being sexy, but that particular artset is so very clearly built around the warped standards of counterculture gays, who, by definition, attempt rebellion against beauty, as to lack any attractiveness to the eyes of the conventional person.

@nerthos @MalibuSunrise @sun nah

@vriska @MalibuSunrise @sun lmao good comeback

@vriska @sun nice, top right is Nyx

I can't wait for his loss to be Podcaster's fault

Leave it to a jeet male to be more insufferable than a woman

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach @sun I've only played the first one but I interpreted the black to be the art of Greek pottery, a stylistic choice. But perhaps that was me coping and it's just pozzed.

@CatLord @sun @scathach I thought so, too, until I read an anti-white statement from one of the game's creators. thanks, Kotaku. 🤮

https://kotaku.com/black-athena-how-hades-gets-its-gods-right-1845146132

@sun @noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach The mental process is preparing the world to see and accept the gradual extinction and replacement of white people.

@thomasroiloup @noyoushutthefuckupdad @sun @scathach same mental process as when I imagine myself slamming 10/10 pussy

I am projecting that which I desire to summon in the physical world

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @CatLord @scathach this is the dumbest rationalization I’ve heard all day

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @CatLord @scathach imagine if someone did this to a black pantheon of gods

@sun @CatLord @noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach But moon, all gods are white, that's what makes them divine

@coolboymew @sun
In fairness, the one in the top left of the grid appears to be a CG for a specific bath scene, her regular portrait isn't too weird. The one in the bottom left is also cute.
The ones on the right are definitely lesbian-esque though, especially the bottom right.

@meso @sun @scathach
Thermonuclear air-to-surface hydrogen truth bomb

@yomiel @coolboymew they look good but sterile

@sun @coolboymew
I get what you mean, sorta. The style itself doesn't really evoke much emotion in me, but I can appreciate that it's well made.

@sun
you're not the target audience (women in their 30s

@ageha comic audience has changed and that’s finr

@sun @amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws
you know a lolcow is untapped when another larping right winger is still getting exposed 10 years later
I would say to look up the barcelona boomers videos featuring that particular larping cuck but iirc they got pulled an eternity ago

@yomiel @coolboymew yeah I mentioned it has a precise draftsmanlike quality that I’ve seen in movie concept art

@yomiel @coolboymew people are all over me because they think I mean tits and ass when it’s just like, one is stiff and sterile and one flows naturally

@coolboymew @yomiel idealized but naturally

@sun @coolboymew @yomiel bell curve meme with tits and ass on extremes and the wall of text you typed in the middle

@sun there's definitely something weird about how deathly afraid the diversity artstyle is of being attractive to men who like women

@sun @amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws oh hey I'm part native american too

@romin @sun @coolboymew @yomiel

@romin @coolboymew @yomiel lol if you think that’s a wall of text

@moth_ball one theory is it’s just a filter for their audience which is okay but don’t bullshit me

@sun @noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach the same mental process where "Hundred Year's Loneliness" aka one of the Colombian nationally beloved books was not diverse enough for netflix so the had to put even darker token blacks in it, even if it meant having them be completely without lines because they wouldn't fit the all-colombian accents

also make the less attractive actor the more attractive twin (this is stated many times in the story and is central to the characters)

@sun @moth_ball think same reason the anime girl is off putting and weird to me is why the hades stuff is to you?

@vriska @sun @moth_ball The anime girl is definitely not a deliberate filter (the guys drawing it do it with all honesty as an attempt to draw the cutest thing they can, and they talk about this when interviewed by/with people they wouldn't lie to/in front of) but it does have the effect accidentally. The hades stuff is very likely deliberate.

Both being forms of gatekeeping would be great if everyone was honest about it.

@nerthos @vriska @sun the dishonesty and uglifying something previously established as aesthetically pleasing is the biggest issue to a lot of people i think

@nerthos @vriska @moth_ball One asshole at Sony blocked all the anime girl games for years. Nobody blocked Hades. The people that though it was great Sony blocked anime games like Hades. So I don't break bread with them even though I think it's a good game.

@nerthos @moth_ball @vriska I even said I like the Hades art but they had to make a few characters sexy and it's not the vibe. The artist is good the director is bad.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos I would like the op more if the anime girl example wasn't so repulsive to me

@moth_ball @nerthos @vriska anime girls isnn't a filter its just the standard in japan even for women, but it is here because at the end of the day don't bullshit me, people like their culture more than other cultures, just be honest. people in the west do use anime girls to filter out some people.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos there are way better anime girls out there folks. They're not sending their best

@vriska @moth_ball @nerthos I regret making the post because I took one screenshot out of context instead of the whole thread and missed a lot of important information. I am sometimes bad about that.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos I'm not even really arguing I'm just saying that specific anime girl pisses me off

@vriska @moth_ball @nerthos tbh I don't find it great

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos the stylized sharp teeth and triangle tongue thing bothers me and it's so ubiquitous in low to mid range "sexy anime girl" Canon and the rabbit jammed between her boobs makes me want to punch her

@sun
suppose applies more broadly, but meant the game hades specifically. seems to be a hit with 30-something tumblr women and theys, same people reading all those "greek myth reimagined" books past few years and also apparently bad musical adaptations? had one of these as a neighbour, moved out last year

@ageha so here's the thing that wasn't the audience of the first one so people are entitled to be annoyed

@ageha just to be real clear I'm very very happy that queer ppl have all the games they want specifically for them on steam. I am happy when everyone gets their games.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos i will give her credit though although it's obviously supposed to be "sexy" at least they didn't do the "breasts and ass of a 400 lbs woman on a 90 lbs frame" thing

@vriska @sun @moth_ball It can't all be megumin sadly
I do think you underguess age tho, the example anime girl is definitely drawn as "young adult, smug, dolled up" down to the face and body proportions of an early 20s heavy makeup jap woman like you'd see from an idol or hostess at an expensive club.
It's just very clearly made by a straight man to appeal to straight men, and will get the same reaction from you that a woman drawn by a lesbian to appeal to lesbians will get from a straight man. Concept of "lesbian pretty" and all that I remember we discussed at some point, strong bifurcation in the idea of what characteristics portray attractiveness and sexual desirability.

Stylized sharp teeth and tongue are felinesque/vampireish because "graceful but dangerous like a cat" is an extremely appealing aesthetic for men, and the basic structure of anime girl face is "grab human head and make it slightly more cat-like, sharper, bigger eyes".

@vriska @moth_ball @nerthos women make the best anime smut no contest.

@sun @ageha I just got done watching invincible with my brother and my favorite part was the extremely divorced guy and the twink constantly getting his ass beat and being sad

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun you know the reason they draw them like that is because of Donald ducks influence on early anime right?

@nerthos @vriska @moth_ball I would also like to point out that this goes agains the heterosexual sex as inherently about dominance idea, that is certainly a big component of heterosexual male fantasy but danger is a big common component too

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos some of the hentai I see men produce makes me want to make art illegal

@vriska @moth_ball @sun Yes. Betty boop, donald duck, and so on, all operate on the same basic idea of "add cute animal characteristics to character to make it cuter"

@sun
definitely looked to be when i played it (via rose's free games thing). same art design and terrible writing ... and first ever winner at the "gayming awards" apparently

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos very true!

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun bro thinks Donald duck is cute (hehe

@ageha I like color and art direction and gameplay. the writing was mid as almost all games are

@vriska @nerthos @moth_ball if he doesn't want me looking he ought to put on pants he a tease

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos few understand this

@vriska @moth_ball @nerthos in the r crumb documentary theres a whole section about him finding bugs bunny sexually attractive

@vriska @sun @moth_ball The most unhinged and brutal against female characters doujins I've seen were either made by women or for a female audience. Also had several cases of women showing me what their favourite hentai and artists were and it's waaaay worse than what I'd go for even being as violent as you know I am. Stuff like "raped daily for months until she breaks" is entry level in perverted female reading lists.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos that bit from Wayne's world

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun I mean literally the art style. The boobs larger than her whole body thing. It disgusts me

@nerthos @vriska @moth_ball women make a lot of the woman molesting a little boy manga.

@sun @moth_ball @vriska Yeah I completely agree. There are guys that just like complete submission and a power inbalance in their favour, but for many of us "woman who could fight me and even win" is super appealing and some predator traits in the female design are very good. Goes outside of anime too, see catwoman, red sonya, etc.

@sun @moth_ball @vriska In that I won't put the blame on either gender because there's just as much raped loli as raped shota.

@vriska @moth_ball @nerthos it makes me feel good that we can disagree on things but still agree on a lot of other things and can still be friends

@vriska @moth_ball @sun That's fair, it really is too much in many cases and I can think of analogues that get the same reaction from me even if I'm indifferent to that particular style.

@sun @moth_ball @nerthos absolutely! Same here. Honestly I was pretty shit at this before I started using your website a decade ago so thanks ^^

@vriska @moth_ball @sun I love the little guy. Had donald duck stuff as a kid.

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun Donald duck comics are elite

@nerthos @vriska @moth_ball there are art styles I hate and I don't hate Hades art style even though I think it's close to some styles I hate. The art styles I actually hate are objectively bad. I think some art styles aren't very stimulating sexually but I admit I am extremely visual and women are less so.

@sun
yeh, but it's a specific kind of bad writing, like other example is
@vriska what's the purple girlfriend game again?

anyhow the achillesｘpatroclus thing is another big tell, if you needed one. that's where the whole myths-retelling stuff started, song of achilles book

@ageha @sun how did you forget what game your girlfriend was in

@sun @vriska @moth_ball Preach. I think all three of us built great friendships on this idea. Lost count of how many times I fought with her about something and we got over it talking it through.

@nerthos @moth_ball @vriska things aren't obligated to be sexy but the dialog that started this was about this image which I think is a good example of the artist being great but I feel nothing

@sun @moth_ball @vriska I know what you mean. I get the immediate rejection due to insult to beauty with pic related or stuff like ren & stimpy. Hades artstyle is just infertile, the rejection comes from the dogwhistle, because we know what's behind it. It would be boring but ok without the context.

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun yeah see what you just posted to me is the exact same feeling I get looking at that anime girl in op. Both of these are equally bad to me

@sun @moth_ball @vriska 100%
This painting of Freyja is orders of magnitude more prudish and yet conveys a lot more fertility than the naked woman.

@vriska @nerthos @moth_ball @sun
what matters in this picture are face and hand, not "parenthetically, i possess breasts

@ageha @moth_ball @nerthos @sun there are hands in that picture?

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun in a way I think the anime girl is almost worse because the person who drew it could clearly do better and chose not to and the horrible bullshit you posted was done by someone who was either 11 or clinically retarded

@vriska @moth_ball @sun I'm glad I can get more mileage from "tumblr.png" took too many minutes on mspaint to post just once hehehe

It's surrreal to see someone get that feeling from "overtly sexy anime girl" but I can understand the theoretical framework that leads there and therefore your bad reaction to it. We do a little dogwhistling.

@amerika @sendpaws @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun he hated america so much he moved to spain, one of the most pozzed and cucked countries in the continent of cuckistan aka europe, where he now gets accosted by spanish war criminals for the crime of recording video out in public doing touristy shit

@vriska @moth_ball @sun I can't believe you'd talk about my art like that... I thought you were my best friend... I'm going back to Hitler now he would never treat my art like that.

@moth_ball @sun @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws

Deport

@patriarchalape @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sendpaws @sun

In retrospect, it was probably just a dumb trend in that era because "Right-wingers" were moving to Eastern Europe, the Phillipines, Southern Europe, and Mexico looking for the good life on a budget. They wanted the traditional women, etc. Now they are all divorced with weird mutant children.

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun lmfao did you actually draw that? Actually Hitler would hate you because your art is better than his

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun I simply find that artists vision of overtly sexy to be completely soulless chronic masterbator core

@vriska @moth_ball @sun You can't talk about my bestie like that. I have his book and everything, you never gave me a physical copy of yours. He would be happy a fellow aryan is making art.

I drew it months ago because I needed a visual example of "and they always look like this" lmao

@nerthos @moth_ball @sun ill happily send you a physical copy of my book! and ill even make a painting for you that is better than anything hitler ever did because he was low key ass at painting. i understand why he crashed out after getting kicked out of art school. he's like nick gage to me

@sun @vriska @moth_ball @nerthos
yeh, this stuff is made for meriken tumblr nerd women who are dating men but have thoughts about ladies sometimes and want somewhere to explore that and also like seeing two boys kiss, with a little token trans stuff thrown in for flavour
7991725d9f383185fb3896bb4922a93…

@ageha @moth_ball @nerthos @sun everyone on earth is at least a tiny bit gay except for bi women who are 100% straight

@vriska @moth_ball @sun It's a fair bit away from the peak of hot anime woman, but I think it's decent. It's just that every single detail in that pic is carefully chosen to appeal to a specific demographic's attraction triggers, which aren't yours. Going so overboard will always result on the target getting a good reaction and everyone else not doing so.

@vriska @moth_ball @sun You can use my brushes when you drop by if you want, we'll go buy oils, I don't think the paint I have is any good after the years it's been just sitting there.

@vriska @ageha @moth_ball @sun Oh come on you know me way too much to do me wrong like this

@ageha @vriska @moth_ball @sun Every dogwhistle confirmed every time.

@meso @sendpaws @coolboymew @sun Hazbin is theater kid catnip. Helluva Boss has plenty of cringe moments but the guy behind it is actually funny. The skits he does when he's actually acting are a lot like what you'd see on 2000s Comedy Central

@Hoss @amerika @sendpaws @coolboymew @sun She called him "scammer" with a hard R after winning the primary so she can't be too much of a cat lady

@sendpaws @amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun You have the choice between a jeet and a crazy communist that got molested as a child. Its like the choice between two piles of shit. Thank God for outlets like debateless, I guess.

@sendpaws @coolboymew @sun Terese Nielsen is a worse blackpill if you ask me. She'd been making card art for M:TG for 25 years, and Wizards dumped her like yesterday's news when the fans went through her likes on social media and found that she had liked QAnon and JK Rowling tweets.

@maxmustermann @sendpaws @amerika @coolboymew @sun If I had to choose between a sneering elite representative of an ethnic fifth column that is openly disdainful of the native population of the place he's seeking to represent or the campus communist cat lady, give me the cat lady. I think she would do less long-term damage, and that's saying something.

@coolboymew @sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun it didn’t get canceled though
It was renewed, they promised another season, then Zach and the other guy decided “nah we are out of ideas” and backed out like it’s just a little indie flash project and not a tv show
I’m sure they’ve completely fucked their chances of further industry work for the foreseeable future but anyway - not canceled but rather self inflicted

@mirq @sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun did it? I heard they stopped airing suddenly or somethingv

@coolboymew @sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun nah they finished s3 (plus the 2 episodes some time later which is something they also did in the past) and then came out and said they’re burned out but also don’t want outside help so they’re just not gonna do it

@mirq @sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun I guess that's what I get for trusting retards words on it, their account on what happened was wrong

@coolboymew @sendpaws @mrsaturday @sun many such cases

Also on the topic of this thread in general, my 2c: I like the art of hades. First one more than the second but both are nice overall. I think that most characters are attractive (not always sexy, they’re not the same) and I like the angular faces. You people ever seen a Greek? Angular faces.

However I agree with sun in that despite the clear technical skill and intent of the artist, something about the art still falls short. That naked woman (Aphrodite?) is a good example. That’s good art, tech wise. The design is good too. But… it doesn’t convey anything to me, really. “Concept art” is an interesting and I think apt comparison

It is also hard to deny that they went out of their way to uglify certain characters in the name of diversity. You may also notice that they only did this to women - the men are almost universally conventionally attractive hotties.

@meso @sun Didn't you lose your virginity to a guy

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @scathach @sun

Queen shit

Also, if Vivek really attempting to deploy her own sexual abuse at the hands of her stepfather as some kind of deranged political weapon, I think she's at liberty to punch the auth codes into the chud nuclear football and call him much worse. This guy descends from weird Hindu feudal aristocracy, his family back in India possesses a literal hereditary estate with servants and everything in the modern age. He wears a sacred string under his clothing to indicate his caste rank as one of Vishnu's most special boys, he believes every word of all that crazy shit. I guarantee he's got plenty of rapists in his family tree who are actually related to him, he's got street shitting royalty in the bloodline who probably think the demons they worship grant them a divine right to rape. Vivek does not want to play whatever retarded game he thinks he's playing, because whatever you can dig up on his own family is probably a hell of a lot worse than a rapist stepdad.

@scathach @sun no i'm still a virgin

@scathach @sun well, depends on what you consider losing your virginity i didnt have sex?

@scathach @sun im the straightest man on fedi if that's what you imply

@scathach @sun This isn't a testament to my straightness, it's a testament to the homosexuality of fedi users

@mirq @sendpaws @coolboymew @sun They pulled a Bill Watterson and quit before it got stale. Massive respect for them and if CN is smart, they'll be happy to broadcast their next project.

@sendpaws @amerika @coolboymew @mrsaturday @sun

I wouldn't be surprised if the Jeet has shell bets against him in Polymarket and he's throwing on purpose to make more money. After all his tribe of people are huge scammers.
