mystery solved

[cowboykakashi]

Hey girl did u know. that um. he isso small

[moe-broey]

It is done.

[fishyfishyfishtimes]

Longfin batfish has always looked extremely throwable to me

Just like a boomerang! Especially the juvenile.

[suketchi-s]

my AU's body types!

for Infected: he's a bit chubby, having the body of a small child (his age is between 8 and 12!), perfect for hugging!

for Slug: its the chubbiest of them, being extremely squishy thanks to being mostly made of water. very throwable... (please take care of it!!)

for Zeze: she's the curveiest of the three, with defined muscles and wider shoulders. her face is also the chubbiest in relation with the rest of his body!

[guppymoss]

rat time!!

im bringing these guys to my very first irl market next weekend! I'll probably put any that don't sell up on my website afterwards (but also if you want one and like to sew maybe hold off, I have plans to drop a pattern for them this fall!). they're made of plain cotton fabric and have some beans in their stomachs that make them extremely throwable. im very happy with how they turned out :)

I don’t actually post my thoughts about the shows/movies/etc I enjoy on here very much, I usually reserve that for talking with close friends. But something I noticed about the last couple of episodes of Dungeon Meshi that I haven’t seen really mentioned is on my mind. First disclaimer: I haven’t read the series (yet), so I’m going based on the show here. Disclaimer 2: I’m gonna talk about spoiler things

Like obviously transfem Laios is just…text. But the last few episodes hinted at some interesting stuff going on gender-wise for Senshi? It’s been clear from the beginning that he was an uncommon kind of dwarf, with his interest in cooking and gardening and stuff. But we get to his flashback, and how the other miners treated him, some of that was clearly because he was young, but there seemed like more to it? Again, something about him was already noticeably different.

And we get to the changeling mushrooms. Yeah, everyone became a different race and everything that brought, but nobody actually changed their personality. Chilchuck was a middle aged divorced guy except Big, Marcille was clumsy and flustered but throwable, Laios was still extremely Laios with a shorter stride. Senshi just instantly and effortlessly took to being a pretty elf, with the usual long thoughtful pauses just getting punctuated by roses and sparkles.

I think he just was always like that by dwarf standards, we just wouldn’t necessarily have noticed it.

me and the bestie

one day i was like. hmmm enot has an egg. eggcat egg. egg friends? they're maybe a bit more like frenemies...? eggcat is kinda just. dragged along into enot's shenanigans. they are extremely silly...

my enot is some sort of horrifying :3 x3 lol random creature stuck in 2011 that thinks it can befriend basically anything. they wanna be friends with everyone (to mixed results)

ik canon enot is flirty or whatever but i just find the concept of this horrifically silly being trying to befriend everyone very goofy and funny

they saw eggcat and were basically like: "ur my friend now! we're having soft tacos later:3"

eggcat used to be a normal size btw.

enot shrank her specifically to make her more throwable. throw ur friend!!!!

if enot picks her up they can functionally make her slime mold operate like a singularity bomb when thrown. you can literally just throw the "egg" like normal it still detaches but noooooooo throwing your friend is more fun i guess!!

i like to think enot can like bend reality but they aren't 100% aware of this? kinda like haruhi

friend delivery service

she tried once to demand her height back. it did not work. she got used to it eventually and actually kinda prefers being small now because she does not like conflict!!!

(this is small enough though please do not shrink her out of existence)

i think their friendship would be really funny have u ever had that one friend u pretend to hate and be mortal enemies with. its like that.

theyre kinda like a manzai comedy duo

(actually one of my friends kinda inspired this one he id very silly. hi julian ik ur not reading this bc i am too embarrassed to explain why this weird cat thing is speaking like katytehpenguinofd00m.)

idk why i gave myself brianrot over a one-off gag and made them actually friends but haiii

Updated the spiel about Larry's abilities on his bio. A lot of Larry's stuff has been a loooong process of thinking things up and out, so I have to periodically go back and elaborate on things. Both doc and on-blog bio page has been updated, but I'll post it here as well.

Larry’s got a few supernatural abilities, both from his little extraterrestrial incident years ago, and just by way of bein’ a Toon: Hammerspace - Larry can store items he’s come across and retrieve them again at a moment’s notice, regardless of the shape or size of said item. Semi-Invulnerability - Like regular invulnerability but slightly worse. High pain tolerance, and the ability to bounce right back from injuries that would land a regular human in the hospital. Squash-And-Stretch - Part of Larry’s enhanced durability comes from the fact that he’s got some very minor elastic qualities to him as a Toon. It’s not extreme and it’s also not voluntary, but it helps when he’s, say, thrown from a building..or a moving vehicle..or plane. He’s very throwable. Reloading - Larry exists permanently within a transitional state of existence. He is alive, but he is dead. He is dead, but he is alive. He isn’t a ghost or a zombie, he’s entirely corporeal and by all accounts alive and healthy, but his stint in space unlocked a latent ability to hop between planes of reality…apparently in a manner so traumatic, it partially ripped Larry from existence itself. If somehow Larry’s enhanced durability doesn’t bail him out and he does actually meet his demise… it doesn’t last very long. He’ll “wake up” moments later, good as new. Your muses will see this as a short, distorted “glitch” effect concentrated on Larry for a few seconds, in which he’ll disappear and reappear as he was before whatever caused his death. This isn’t exactly a “rewind” effect as it appears to be, though. Larry knows when he’s died, and remembers everything about it.

so here's wacom using AI-generated graphics complicated stealing in their advertising (link to a pretty good explainer if you can't spot the tells). you know, wacom, the "industry standard" for graphics tablets, whose entire market is... living human artists. it's like if you were working for the glass house realtor and handing out bags full of extremely throwable stones during tours.

this blew up on twitter and bluesky today and wacom realized everyone was Mad Online At Them and started deleting stuff. no solemn jpeg apology yet but it's been less than 24 hours and it's a saturday lol.

there is no excuse for this. wacom makes gazillions of dollars. they can afford to hire a real artist. they can afford to actually vet their sources for any pre-made graphics they might use.

if you can avoid buying wacom products, you should. they're not even like. good? or reliable? this is anecdotal obvi but i hear about people's thousand-dollar cintiqs eating shit after 2 or 3 years all the time. their drivers are straight up trash, and replacing a lost or broken pen costs almost as much as buying the damn tablet again with the lower-end "affordable" ones. they've been squeezing a criminally underpaid profession with criminally overpriced products for decades now. fuck 'em. i personally recommend xp-pen; my tablet driver crashes once every few months these days. it's the good life.

I came up with a random ass design in my head while I was coloring a commission and he popped in…. My lil meow meow, my lil star breathing dork

I wont finish his ref since comms are my up most priority.

Sum more about Hoshi!

Hoshi is one of Uzui Tengen’s sons.

Hoshi was a very troublesome child and gave Uzui and his wives their daily doze of exercise trying to keep him steady. He is very active!

Hoshi couldn’t fit into sound breathing requirements so he learnt basic swordsman and ninja skills.

Tengen visited the corp and tried his best to talk to the hashiras if they could teach his son a breathing technique but most of them were quite busy and just couldn’t take him since his troublesome record.

Mayumi approached Tengen and she decided she would be happy to take Hoshi as her tsugoku. Hoshi learnt his own breathing technique, star breathing thanks to Mayu, the moon hashira.

Mayu actually needs a companion in her missions, she gets a stuffy nose pretty easy when its cold so she cant pick up scents which is something she relies on most so having Hoshi with her helps her a lot so its a win/win.

Hoshi does makeup, does his hair, always smells nice, haves skin routines etc etc just like his father. He is always flashy but don’t underestimate him, he isn’t afraid to get dirty.

His top is very revealing but it’s just because his breathing techniques required a serious amount of flexibility and he often ripped apart his uniform while performing so they chopped it off.

Star Breathing forms

Morning Star: series of extremely fast slashes causing star sparks. This action causes the blade to heat up and when in contact it burns like the sun to demon. Tho this technique takes a lot of stamina and strength.

Star catcher: N/A

Shooting star: The user must carry a throwable weapon connected with a chain/rope to be able to use this form. The user will throw the weapon(in this case, Hoshi’s spike rings) to the target with maximum speed, the weapon will stab it’s victim and quickly inject poison. The user will have a short amount of time to manipulate the victim’s movements forcing them to the chain’s submission.

Spark clash: N/A

Reflecting moon: N/A

Sparkle poi: This is very similar to “string performance” from sound breathing. The user will hold onto the weapon’s chain and start rotating the weapons in high speeds but make sure the weapon is slighting hitting the ground to start a series of fire star sparks which would set the weapon on a series of blinding spark rotations. THO! Please be aware that if not done right, the user can suffer blindness.

Star injection: N/A

Flash Bang: the user will start swinging the twin weapons in a rotational motion and start causing lots amounts of star sparks and once the spark are strong enough (till they start creating heat waves) the user will swing the twin weapon down at the ground creating a huge flash bang stunting those around witnessing it for about 5-7 minutes. If the user isn’t trained enough for this form, it can stunt themselves.

something about Tamerlane's shape is extremely throwable, I want to chuck him like a nerf football

Invader Zim Deathmatch:

ROUND 2, FIGHT 9:

Zim vs Minimoose!

The rules are as follows:

1. We’re assuming that both participants actively want and are willing to kill each other unless actively specified otherwise (for example: Chammy Wamboo).

2. The fight must be one on one so no outside help is allowed, but prep time is allowed.

3. The rule for prep time is that if one contestant gets prep time, the other contestant gets an equal amount of prep time as well.

[Masterpost]

Information about both contestants (who they are, powers and abilities, etc) can be found under the cut.

Contestant Stats:

Zim:

“HE IS ZIM!”

Note: due to me doing a LOT of different analyses of Zim’s combat capabilities, intelligence, and competence in general, this section goes way further into detail than with any other contestant, to the point where I can say almost exactly HOW Zim fights along with his general abilities, which gets its own section.

Appearances:

As Zim is a Main Character, I’m not going to list where he appears. He’s everywhere

Tactics:

Zim is a very environmental fighter that uses his mind and the environment around him a lot in combat, quickly setting up traps, leading his opponents into bad positions and using anything he can get his hands on to gain an advantage.

Zim also uses his PAK a lot in combat, mostly for the extra maneuverability it provides. Leaping around and dodging attacks with it and using it to quickly climb and move around.

Zim also knows how and when to briefly get into his opponent’s head, confusing them by briefly putting on an act to seem dumber than he appears (Take his fights against Hobo 13 and Pilot Dib for very good examples). Once his opponent is distracted or thrown off, he strikes fast and hard.

Powers and abilities:

Irken physiology (Zim can lift over 3 times his body weight and is extremely durable. More specifically, I’ve estimated in the past with some calculations for Zim’s height and weight that Zim can lift about 612.8 pounds, but that’s just estimation and theories)

PAK (PAK legs, PAK lasers, shield generator, all the things an Irken PAK can do)

Elite military training (Zim is an Invader, meaning that he went through irken military training and became an elite soldier before going through Invader training. This means that Zim has the combat skills of an elite soldier)

Invader training (as an Ex-Invader, Zim is trained in espionage, stealth, sabotage, and other invader-related things)

Throwing Knife Mastery (Zim has a 99.7% accuracy rate with throwing knives, and it’s very likely that this accuracy rate also applies to other throwable things)

Superior Intelligence (Zim is the single smartest Irken we’ve ever seen and is a lot smarter than he appears, being able to build things in less than an hour that artificially enhanced irkens take days or even weeks to build. This significantly reduces or even removes the amount of prep time Zim needs to create something. Zim is also capable of manipulating people by playing dumb, a tactic he sometimes uses in combat to throw his opponents off their rhythm (take his fights in Hobo 13 and the Pilot for example))

Shock Spear (as seen in Nickelodeon All Star Brawl of all places, Zim owns, knows how to use, and always has on his person: a unique Shock Spear. This Shock Spear can presumably do anything a regular Shock Spear can do, including shocking anyone hit by it and discharging energy from the blades for a ranged attack)

[Weakness] No common sense or impulse control [Averted] (Zim normally has little common sense or impulse control and seems to struggle with motivation, a fact that usually leads to him defeating himself. HOWEVER, in the right situation where Zim properly focuses on the task at hand (usually either when he wants revenge or when he thinks his life or his mission is in danger), Zim completely loses this weakness and not only becomes completely motivated, but also starts thinking things through, becoming far more dangerous. A fight to the death like this competition definitely fills those requirements, meaning that Zim in this situation would be completely focused at basically all times)

[For This Fight Only] Past Knowledge (Since Zim built Minimoose in the first place, he has full knowledge of how to disassemble Minimoose)

Fun Fact:

Both Mark Hamill and Billy West were candidates for the voice of Zim. Mark Hamill was deemed to be unsuited for the role and Billy West voiced Zim in the Pilot episode, but ultimately Richard Steven Horvitz was chosen to voice Zim.

Minimoose:

“Been here the whole time”

Appearances:

Minimoose’s only TV appearance is in the episode “The Most Horrible Christmas Ever”, but we would have seen them a lot more if the show wasn’t cancelled, including an episode called “Nubs Of Doom” where we would have seen their creation. They also appear in Enter The Florpus and make consistent appearances in the Comics

Powers and abilities:

Telekinesis

Energy Blasts (Minimoose can fire powerful blasts of dark energy from themselves. We never officially see it so it’s impossible to say for sure, but it’s most likely that Minimoose’s “deadly weapons” we hear about in “Nubs Of Doom” are actually these energy blasts at max strength)

Teleportation (Minimoose is able to manipulate dark energy to teleport things. HOWEVER, we won’t be counting Minimoose teleporting the entire Earth as something they can do, as they needed a very specific setup involving everyone on earth holding hands combined with the Membracelets and a blob creature Zim created. Minimoose’s actual limits with teleportation are most likely just teleporting themselves and whatever is holding/around them)

Fun Fact:

Minimoose is canonically confirmed to be non-binary, making them one of two canonically confirmed non-binary Invader Zim characters with Recap Kid being the other one, and one of four non-binary Invader Zim characters if you also consider Invader Tenn and Commander Poki, who are heavily implied to be non-binary but not explicitly confirmed.

Additional Thoughts:

Does anyone actually read these? They’re kind of important for judging how powerful some characters are.

Played my first game of Blades in the Dark today and delighted by the fact that my whisper's class-unique contributions to the heist were, during prep and later during the escape: failing her attune rolls and attracting some extremely angry ghosts on herself/the party, and then crit succeeding her compel attempts to tell the ghosts to stop trying to eat her in such a scoldworthy tone that the ghosts were stunned into acting like people for a second.

Her first ghost was also murdered on the orders of the Lord of the House we were robbing, which made him a great throwable as a distraction during the main event. But since he was such a cute angry ghost she also made sure to put aquarium decorations in his spirit bottle so he could have something nice to look at while he was in there. So part of the eventual crime scene evidence is some colored sand a tiny model castle amidst all the wreckage.

Extremely annoyed at Payday 3.

Whomever was influencing the decisions that lead to this product is a fucking idiot.

The game has potential, and I expect if it doesn't crumble to dust in the next month it might even reach that potential through some rework updates.

But I do not recommend a single soul pay money for this right now. I'm flipping a coin on refunding mine out of shame.

Always online, busted servers, unreal stuttering, a progression system that pits cooperative players against each other for said progression, an ass backwards weapon progression system, no solo mode (as in ACTUAL non-internet non-lagging able-to-pause solo mode), always online (again), lack of basic options like throwable outlines to outline ammo packs???, like

I like "playing" it when I can, but these are things that either prevent you from doing so outright (did I mention busted servers? You can't play the game right now without waiting 30-50 minutes in a queue, like a lonely DPS in a wow LFR), or will become more and more grating as time goes on because at its core the decisions spit at what payday is supposed to be.

I mean for fuck's sake there's apparently very very very little reason to even go for loot or do bonus objectives! Apparently that's strictly cash!

All progression is challenge based, meaning you have to keep bending your will to play to the challenges whims to get xp, no xp for just "doing the thing" no xp for your stealth run if you did the challenges already, no xp for killing normally-

do the challenge for xp

okay?

IDK man. There's good game in there and I'm such a sucker for payday that I'm expecting to be happy with it in a month or so but right now I'm just capital D Disappointed.

All the bizarre decisions leading up to launch seemed more like light red flags at best, but sure enough, all were RED and all are soaring.

dumb.
