#WHERE THE FUCK WAS THERE 5 ACTUAL POINTS DIFFERENCE?????

[jodjuya]

Also, facial hairs don't grow in all at once like a chia pet. Usually* takes like 15 years after puberty until someone can grow a FULL beard. So if you're drawing somebody in their teens or twenties, their beard will be patchy.

(* the order of progression is basically the same across humanity (I'm pretty sure, anyway), but different ethnicities go through the steps at different speeds. Middle-Eastern & Subcontinental folks will have full beards MUCH faster than Asian folks, for instance. (like, 20-25 years faster!))

1) Chin and moustache come in first.

- Moustache growth begins at the corners of your mouth and progresses inward toward your philtrum, but it won't actually cover your philtrum until much later.

- Chin growth begins at the very bottom of your chin in the centre, then spreads out to the sides without going past the front of your chin (i.e. not wider than your mouth), then goes up in a triangular shape toward the soul patch (but it won't grow into a soul patch right away - those hairs are VERY slow to grow), then the sides go out a bit more and then they start going up too. The progression of shapes is like an underscore shifting into a squashed acorn into an anchor and then eventually into kind of like the rebel alliance logo, and then the rest of the infill happens later, if at all (The rebel alliance shape is all UNDER your mouth. Those two side prongs will eventually reach all the way up around your mouth to connect to your moustache, but not until MUCH later)

2) While that's going on, the next zone to come in is your jawline:

- begins at corner of your jaw, then progresses down your jawline towards your chin but it WILL NOT connect to the chin's hair growth at this stage.

- when it's like halfway down your jaw it'll also begin going up to your sideburns

3) From your jawline it spreads under your jaw in to your neck (your moustache would cover your philtrum at this point, and your goatee would be at the beginnings of the rebel alliance shape)

4) then slowly begins progressing up your cheeks, following the growth pattern of your jawline hairs. But it will just be a thickening swoosh shape and not going very far up your cheeks yet. There are still NO hairs in the NO HAIR ZONE between your jawline and your goatee.

5) the goatee's rebel alliance shape has filled in and connected to your moustache, hair *starts* growing higher up your cheeks, and the NO HAIR ZONE *starts* shrinking

6) yadda yadda yadda: Full Beard!

7) you can do whatever grooming you want at any stage during this process, but you can only shave off hair from places where it's grown in the first place, and hair that has been growing for less time can't be longer than hair that's been growing for more time. So usually you'll be trimming back the earliest growth areas while you wait for the rest to catch up. ('cause if you don't it looks Fucking Terrible)

ALSO! This is the hormonal progression, not the hair-itself progression. If you're past a certain growth stage and clean-shaven, when you stop shaving your hair will start growing from everywhere on your face where facial hair has been unlocked. So once you're older than, like, 30, then you will start growing facial hair from everywhere at once like a chia pet - "5 o' clock shadow" and all that. This patchiness I've described is for *young* people (except for when it isn't because ethnicity)

(But even when you're mature, different areas of your face still have different hair-growth speeds, so it's not COMPLETELY uniform (but it's pretty close))

All of this means that if you have two people of the same ethnicity and with beards the same length, but one dude is 15 years older than the other, the older guy's beard will (usually) be thicker and more voluminous. With a long beard, the younger you are the stringier it'll be. It takes time for the slow-growth hairs to catch up to the fast ones. (But if it's LONG long, then it will tend towards being kinda thin and stringy anyway due to the attrition of shed hairs)

And if someone has a truly unkempt beard, it will be thick close to their face and will thin right out the further away from their face it gets. You'll see these in distinct bands, like a tree regrowing from being pollarded. The thickness stops shortly after their last trim, and there'll be the thin wispy band of faster-growing hairs which have overtaken the slower hairs that are bulking out the rest of the beard.

Also, the shape of a long beard will undergo plastic deformation under prolonged pressure. Sleeping on it, wearing a face mask; things of that nature. Your beard can become very misshapen until you actively restore its former lovely shape with vigorous combing and/or water:

first you comb it up and out (but mostly up) to get the maximum volume possible, and from there you gently comb it back down again into neatness. If it's undergone deformation, you can't go directly from Squarshed to Tidy, you have to 'reset' via Floof first. Or you just take a shower. (You don't have to shampoo a beard unless it's actually dirty, but you can if you want to. (but if you strip too much oil from the hair and don't put it back afterwards with conditioner or beard oil or w/ever, then your hair pulls oil from your skin and you can end up with Beard Dandruff 🙃)).

BUT if your beard just regular messy and hasn't undergone plastic deformation, like you've been hit by a strong gust of wind or whatever, then you can go quickly and directly from Mussed to Tidy. No Reset-Via-Floof required.

You can get knots in your beard, but it's highly unlikely unless your beard is LONG long. Slightly less uncommon are individual hairs getting a knot in them. As in, one individual hair will have been tied into an overhand knot, usually close to its end. You only notice these when stroking your beard and your finger happens to brush past that tiny bump in the hair; it doesn't cause any problems or anything because it's literally only affecting one single hair, not causing multiple hairs to be all stuck together. I just pull on the knot with my fingernails and the hair snaps off where the knot is.

If you braid a beard you lose most of its volume and a good bit of length. Though I guess this depends on how tight your braids are and how many of them you have... 🤔

You can disguise a really long beard as a short one by tying it up with a Gibson Tuck/inverted bun.

I think that's all the nuanced beard information I can think of right now. Happy to take questions. :)

ive been wanting to make smth like this for a little while now and i finally finished it up ^_^ hopefully my tricks are helpful

i really dislike that the feather didnt pop out of the rings. cause.. lets get first defence out of the way: this is not the Crocoduel thing. If it was the Crocoduel thing then breaking it wouldnt have released the butterfly either. So that isnt what's happening. so that leaves 3 options: 1-Animation error (big fucky-wucky. Theoretically possible but that's a critical failure) 2-Adrien somehow isnt a senti/it isnt in the rings. (outright cheats the audience out of 5 seasons of build-up) 3-They just did a fucking stupid-ass "timetravel heist" like Felix with the dog and Marinette stealing Tiki from her past self in the London Special, and they're gonna reveal that in the season finale where they steal it... And if its 3... goddamn there's 2 sub-classes. 3a:They stole it when the rings went missing in this episode. Now technically there is a moment where Plagg vanishes in the kitchen so he could be an accomplice, but i dont see how you sneak a fake replacement ring into a locked room with 4 completely attentive granparents. So i think that's some bullshit. Like making the ring vanish isnt the problem here (just ask Flairmiddable). Its getting the fake underneath Millies plate... wait that isnt a problem either is it. At no point until she looks for it does the plate move. The timetraveler could Fetch-touch the ring at any point in time before it goes missing, plant the fake while everyone is outside greeting the grannies, and Fetch it while they're figthing... 3b: The show reveals that actually, Adrien has never truly received a Ring-based order. All his Gabriel obedience is entirely abuse-based and not mind-controll based. They stole Emilies ring from before Gabriel pulled it off her corpse, and they stole Gabriel's ring from Felix in a different point in the past. I dont like any of these options (cause its either a plothole, or the show becoming even more over-reliant on timetravel trickery). But looking at the currently available i guess that 3a is the least terrible?

this nemesis ambition started out a little slow but I am getting closer to finding that bastard who killed my wife, and I’ll not rest a minute now that im far closer to on his trail

sorry got in character for a second

Anyways fun ambition so far very fucked up though

congratulations on joining the murder club anon!!!! depending on who you ask the name refers to either people who have murdered or people who have witnessed murder. usually both. actually extremely often both. it's a swell time you'll feel right at home (don't mind our collective skyglass knife collection in the back)

[mantisgodsdomain]

i just wanna say that you're 100% right about Vi, i also wish people wouldn't just toss her aside like that, she's just as important to the team. like, she has depth dang it! she's more than just Funny Bee Who Likes Berries! also you're super right about people trying to squish Team Snakemouth into little nuclear family shaped holes. that's all, just wanted to give you a high five for complaining about stuff that also annoyed me

We've been chattering about it for... more than a year now, we think? Not necessarily via public venues, since this fandom's close-knit enough that stepping on toes is a major issue, but Team Snakemouth is a TRIO, not a duo, and trying to squish the relationship down to just "two dads and their baby kid" really just seems... reductive. Exhausting.

Vi's one of our favourite characters in the game, and it gets really tiring to see her treated as a third wheel. Even beyond the infantilization that's utterly rampant in this fandom, Vi, more than everyone else, gets things... sanded off, or just ignored. Either she's a bratty little kid who doesn't know better, or she's a background object, and that's just... taking a big chunk out of the team dynamic. She's got complexity! She's part of the team, not some random kid that Kabbu and Leif are dragging along on their adventures! She's a valuable part of the team, and she should be treated as such!

Sickness update: Still coughing, but it's (mostly) dry coughing now, and my headache is gone! But I'm not at 100% back-to-normal mental capacity yet either :(

Writing update: I've been hard at work on my angsty longfic! I was going to work on something lighter (especially with my cold) but all of a sudden more and more ideas to add to my AU kept popping in my head and I just had to jot them down.

Before long I was finally organizing my outline by putting all my previous bullet-point came-to-me-at-random-times-of-the-night-and-put-in-an-equally-random-order concepts into plot-chronological order as they should be, and making headings/sections for the major location changes to find stuff easier, and getting down how exactly series-and-collection-wise I want to go about categorizing the fic and its sequels, and finalizing their titles (which are all names of songs on The Glitch Mob's Drink the Sea album, give it a listen with good headphones if you haven't before, it's great background music!!) and oh yeah I needed to go over the h2hs again better open that doc, and I definitely need to have the game's script and cutscenes on hand for reference as needed (which was very frequently) and now baby I've got a stew going

I'm having so much fun writing characters I haven't gotten to write before, and (minor/vague Xenoblade spoilers) digging into the details of the lore about Face Mechon and expanding on my take of what was happening on the Mechonis before the party got there, and fitting lots of little puzzle pieces that the game gives you but doesn't directly tell you they belong together which is why I love it so much, and getting into such a nice flow state with it all and gjshfhskfh I love Xenoblade 1 so muchhhhhh!!!

So all that is to say I will hopefully be posting the prologue tomorrow or the day after! :) No promises as it's gotten much longer/more-detailed than I planned for (although I really should have expected that, it's always how it goes with me when I'm having fun writing I just can't stop haha) but it is most definitely on the way to being published soon!

At least even when I was a teenager and identified as communist, I was still never a soviet apologist

(And as I got older I came to dislike the USSR more and more and more, also seeing that soviet apologism kinda tended to fuck things up for western communists cause they'd be so busy running defense for people who didn't like or care about them, that actually getting policies passed to help western workers came second to being a tankie)

(Straight up, while I was volunteering in Quebec, one of the people I stayed with had this book by her uncle about being a Canadian communist, and he basically pinned soviet apologism as the whole reason he left the party cause they were more interested is doing PR for the kremlin than they were interested in like... unionizing in Canada)

Anyway, tankies suck, soviet apologism suck, and I'm glad to be able to say that even when I was a communist I didn't fall into that trap... like thank fuck for that, you know?

I have obtained a new oc and in the process I've already signed myself up for needing to make at least 3 new ocs for his story which he now has despite me initially Intending for him to be a side character for a different side character to hang out with. My townhouse has over 200 characters on it.
