#righties vs. lefties

[hislittleraincloud]

Good gods, I came here to make the observation about how cute her little boob fits so well into his slight gut and realized that the probable reason why the kiss looked so awkward for Jenna is because she is a righty and Martin is a lefty. Lefties tend to lean towards their dominant side when kissing, just like righties normally lean right. 🤦🏽‍♂️

ETA: The sound on the Netflix version is SO much better and clearer than what Amazon Prime gave me. It angers me bc I could've had a better AI Cairo and Jon. Like...everything is clearer, including Jon's forced excuses during the conversation. You can hear the hesitations much, much better. The line she is supposed to narrate about her with her fingers knuckle deep was all but a whisper compared to what it is via Netflix.

CALLING ALL RIGHT HANDED PEOPLE

WE ARE GOING TO WAR WITH THE LEFTIES (again)

ambidextrous allies are welcome too

[hey-heigo]

doodled some goofy fellas for a fanganronpa that will probably never exist. meet the ultimate general surgeon and the ultimate mortician, in case you can't tell they're foils

twins separated at birth. i dont have names for them so for now they're leftie and rightie

leftie went to a relatively well-off family that placed heavy emphasis on using your life for the Greater Good

rightie grew up in an environment where death was prevalent but people were always trying to live life to the fullest

leftie goes into the medical field, saves countless people, but also bears witness to the worst any human can survive and endure and the worst people can be at the lowest point of their lives

rightie, witnessing a lot of death and the rituals that follow, gets interested in the different ways a body is prepared for burial and goes into mortuary sciences. they always do their best to make sure each body goes out looking peaceful, and become skilled in most rituals for seeing a dead person off

ironic opposites of 'life-saving doctor jaded by the ugliness of life' vs 'mortician who celebrates the lives of each person they take care of'

leftie sees rightie as being too flippant and sheltered from the horrors of life and rightie sees leftie as being too serious to enjoy what life has to offer

kind of obsessed with your lineart it looks so cool and strong and waaaaah do you have any advice for how to get better at lining stuff

Glad you like it, I love doing it :]

And I find what really helps if finding a comfortable pen for you (or sleeve/grip if you're limited with styluses like on IOS devices) and tips (if digital), which will also help with avoiding strain and positioning your hand/fingers/tablet weirdly. If you draw digitally and use a tablet with an EMR pen, usually those can be swapped out with other more ergonomic ones with no issue. For example, I like using a Wacom One pen with metal replacement nibs with my s6 lite when I draw on it, way more comfortable and easy to control. If you want to find good options for those, a lot of Reddit threads on them exist. Also, matte/paperlike screen protectors feel great and pretty cheap nowadays, but do eat plastic and rubber tab pen tips.

For actual drawing stuff, I find pulling the lines versus pushing really helps with smoothness, especially with the lines going where you actually want them to go, and finding a comfortable pressure curve (if you use pressure settings, if not perhaps edit velocity and tilt settings if your program has those if drawing digitally) and stabilizer help a ton. The pull vs. push might vary by handedness, though, since lefties "push" lines and letters on paper when writing when righties "pull" their letters and lines along paper, y'know? So that might vary per person and their sense of comfort and what feels right.

Also, if you're someone who finds it hard to line sketches because the lineart just doesn't look like the sketch, gaussian blur the sketches a bit. It might help kill the perfectionist in your brain for those pieces. Studying how other artists do lineart and where and why they use different weights and level of detail definitely can't hurt either.

Something about Vecna's Left Hand 🤔

This post centers around the patterns of handedness in the NINA sequence and Creel flashbacks as it relates to Henward's bloodstains.

Honest to God, though, I'm trying my damnedest to find a good way to organize all the pictures I've annotated about this guy. I decided it was best to just go by jumpsuit, so I'm using Em's current naming system (JA-JE) for cohesion between sources. I also decided to try to narrow the main shots down to ones that include hand use, since that's what I really care about in this post (even though some others will be included for speculation purposes). I'm not diving into injuries or bodies, even if there are annotations about those topics, because those aren't super applicable in regard to this analysis.

Also, Em just posted his big jumpsuit bloodstain comparison analysis:

HERE!!!

You can find all the details about this stuff on that post.

Here are the background posts for this analysis:

Changing Vecnas

Comparison Of MF And Vecna Suits

Comparison Of Vecna/MF Suits To The 5 Known Massacre Suits

Lefty and Righty vs Henry Creel

First, a TL;DR recap:

Righty (Henry):

Righty (Suspected Henry):

Lefty (Suspected Edward):

Good? Okay, let's get started.

JA.

He's not the Vecna we see in the transformation sequence from 4.07, nor is he the one we see in the Mindflayer shaping sequence.

He's a lefty, though:

JA is associated with El's initial eye blood pattern:

But not with her second eye blood pattern:

He also seems to be the gauntest of our Henwards, especially in comparison to JC:

Which...lots to think about there, considering this:

I won't rule out the possibility of him being a Vecna, of course. He's just not the thicker one we're shown concretely by the transformation sequence in 4.07.

Anyway. Moving on.

JC.

This is our guy. This is the jumpsuit that we're told goes with our main Vecna via the transformation sequence in 4.07.

He's a lefty.

JC is also the only bloody Henward we see doing hands-free moves, interestingly enough.

His Jumpsuit matches Vec-Ward's, as seen here:

JD.

JD's only appearance is at the very end. He does not appear before El slams him through the mirror.

He isn't shown using his hands, but his jumpsuit matches the guy who shaped the Mindflayer (as seen here):

Which means we can say he is also a lefty:

JD is associated only with El's second eye blood pattern:

A Quick Recap:

JA, JC, and JD are all lefties. We have seen no right-handed Massacre-Henwards so far.

The only bloody Henward I have questions about is JE, and that is solely because his sequence is shot through a mirror, presenting a lefty as a righty.

He's holding her chin in his left hand, but the camera choice presents it as his right hand. I can't, of course, rule anything out (especially given all the "mirror/holding up a mirror" stuff with him).

At the end of the day...it is meant to be recognized as his left hand, otherwise they wouldn't show us the mirror at all. They would just cut to him using his right hand normally. So, unless I have reason to think otherwise, I'm assigning him working-lefty.

I also can't concretely assign the bloodless JB suit.

This is because his only move is the hands-free one that we see JC do in the previous shot:

For now, though, I'm also assigning him working-lefty. This is based on the direction of his head tilt, which is the same as our other known lefty:

In conclusion:

Concrete Lefties: 3

Working-Lefties: 2

Concrete Righties: 0

I won't say that we don't have Henries in this sequence, because of course I can't say that. If he is shown on screen, though...he's either JB or JE, one of our two inconclusive lefties.

However: As it stands, we do not have any concrete righties, which would be an indisputable indicator of Henry's status as a mass murderer. If they wanted it to be indisputable, they would have made it that way.

SNEAK ATTACK FROM THE LEFTIES ☄️☄️☄️☄️🗡️🗡️🗡️⚔️⚔️⚔️🤺🤺🤺🧨🧨🧨🧨

Declined ,thx tho

[coconuttrunk]

I tested this.

I wrote all english letters and estimated net leftward vs rightward movement. I disregarded upward and downward movements- assuming they are the same for lefties and righties.

Simple letters:

g,j,s have net leftward movement. For b,c,i,l,o,p,y,z the horizontal movements cancel out. The other 15 letters have a net rightward movement.

Capital letters:

N,S,X,Y have a net leftward movement. For B,C,D,F,K,M,O,P the movements cancel out. The other 14 letters have a net rightward movement.

Caveat: people write letters differently. Some may use different strokes for some letters.

But generally, lefties write with more pushing and less pulling motions than righties.

and my personal favorite:

i love getting validation as a lefty but also learning about new fun ways it continues to suck

[henrysglock]

piggybacking off Em's Mike Creeler Post...but remember the Mike lefty vs righty debate? How his watch is on his right wrist and not his left? The way he holds his hands?

Y'know who else has a lot of righty-lefty debate?

Do we want to discuss which Creel is his uncle? Because...

How about Hunter vs Amity in a tickle-fight?

Alright anon!

Loosen up!

🎂: The Owl House

🧁: Amity, Hunter

🍫: Amity, Hunter

A/N: thanks for the request!

Loosen up!

Hunter had been overworking himself.

Doing all the chores Camila would allow , staying up late and getting up early, only taking a break to eat and sleep. (And even that was questionable) Hunter was becoming burnt out and not even realizing.

Amity knew this. She used to overwork herself too, and recognized all the signs of burnout in him.

She knew she had to do something about it. Burn out was never good, and although she understood why(most likely past pressure from Belos, she guessed) it still wasn’t good.

So, one day, she came up to hunter while he was awake and alone.

“Hey hunter.” She whispered, in a (thankfully successful) attempt to not wake up Gus who was asleep next to them.

“Oh. Hi Amity, did I wake you up? I’m sorry. “ he whispered back, looking a little crestfallen

“Oh, no , it’s not that. I’ve been up. I just wanted to have a chat with you,” she said quickly, noticing his expression and not wanting to make things worse.

“Okay… umm.. do you think we could go to the shack? That way we don’t wake anyone?”

“Yeah! I was going to suggest that.”

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

After the two had arrived at the shack, they sat down on the carpet.

“So,” Hunter began, no longer whispering now that there was no need to. “What did you want to talk about?”

“Nothing too bad, I promise. “ Amity started, “it’s just that… you’re clearly overworking yourself. “

“No I - “ Hunter couldn’t even get two words out before he got cut off.

“Don’t even bother arguing with me, I used to be like that and I know all the signs of burnout, you, my friend, are ringing all those bells. “

Hunter opened and closed his mouth a few times before finally saying, “that’s just my routine” in such a small voice Amity could barely hear it.

“I know, and it’s horrible that you grew up like that, but Belos isn’t here anymore to make you, you can take a break. “

“I know.” He whispered. “It’s just hard for me to unclench my jaw and loosen my grip, Y’know?”

This made an idea start to form in Amity’s mind. A mischievous, yet still kind, smile wormed it’s way on to Amitys face.

“So you need to loosen up, huh?”

Hunter hesitated a moment . “What’s with the tone?” He said, suspicious.

“How about I help you with that! “ she cried out , before pouncing.

She immediately started to scratch at the back of Hunter’s knees, maybe not his worst spot, but definitely a bad one.

“Amitihihihiy! Whahahaht thehehee heheck!” He immediately broke down into frantic laughter, gap toothed smile showing off.

“Helping you! C’mon, loosen up!”

“I ahahaham! “

“But is it enough though? Tickle tickle tickle tickle tickle! Tickle the tension away!” (A/N: writing this is flustering me so hard rn-)

Hunter’s face immediately burst into pink. “Nohohoho teheheheashihing!”

“So you don’t want me to stop tickling you then?”

“Dihihid Ihi sahahahy thahahat?” Hunter giggled out before flipping himself forward and tackling Amity to the ground, flipping their positions.

Hunter went for Amity’s sides first. Poking them sporadically.

“Hehey! Thihihis wahahas nohohot myhyhi plahAHAN!”

“Too bad! You should’ve factored it in!”

He said, noticing how Amity immediately turned into Amity Tomato tm .

“Maybe you need some loosening to!”

He exclaimed, twisting his hand left like he was using a wrench “how did that human saying go? Lefty loosey, righty tighty, correct?”

It was silly, but it was working.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

The two continued on like that for about 30 minutes. Switching roles and filling the shack with laughter.

By the time they were done, it was nearly 2:00 AM.

The first question they got the next morning was.. “Why are you two so tired?”

—————— THE END————————————

[copperbadge]

Your football coach rabbit hole reminds me of the poetic, epic, rivalry I accidentally discover in the Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer world of tennis (like 7 years late), where not only were the top 2 tennis players for a decade two literary opposites (the Lefty vs Righty, the Fighter vs the Artist, the Matador vs the Prince of Tennis, Mr. No sleeves and Capri pants vs Mr. Sweater Vests) but they absolutely respect and adore each other. Compared to how nasty tennis/sports rivalries of the past have gotten it’s a delight.

Like, whole documentaries have been made about a single match of their’s where they detail how Federer was the unchallenged tennis champion (and a bit of a brat, breaking rackets and yelling) for his first few years, his game described as “beautiful” and “graceful”. And then here comes this young upstart that chases and gets every ball like it’s life or death (but for all his fire and fight has famously never broken a racket on court or camera). And that Federer says he never WANTED a rival, he was fine winning everything but he learned that no, Nadal being there made him better, hungrier, and that here he had this kindred spirit that he could confide in

(Like this is literally what Federer has said, in the documentary “Strokes of Genius”. The two of them have posted on their socials about “Fedal” their “team” name. They have played against each other 40 times and usually in the semis or finals and have talked openly about how they both love and dread playing each other.)

((Also hilariously they have a 3rd rival of the “Big 3” of men’s tennis, that arguably is technically the actual greatest rival of Nadal since they are closer in age and are more active then Federer is now, but you ask Nadal his greatest rival he says Federer. But that turns out that guy’s an anti-vaxx moron so it’s very funny he’s mostly left out of the bromance))

Oh, that's fun! I'm not much one for tennis (but then I'm not much one for most sports, as a spectator) but there is something compelling about rivalries like that.

I could never get into the idea of two generals on a battlefield who respected each other, or the whole "We both attended the ball last night and today we're trying to kill each other" (see also the "Christmas Truce") because for me all they highlight is the tremendous way that the ruling class is willing to throw away the lives of everyone around them -- but at least with athletics, pretty much everyone is there because they want to be there. I still have issues with how many resources we expend on athletics, especially after the last Olympics where it became obvious that we are brutalizing a lot of young people with competitive sport, but it's a complicated issue. There's no easy solution and truly no easy criticism, in many ways.

Football is a little impenetrable so it's slow going, but I do enjoy the Mourinho Guardiola....rivalry? Flirtation? I sometimes can't tell when Mourinho's being funny (this is apparently quite a common problem with him). But Mourinho's been a coach for decades and used to coach a team Guardiola played for, so you can see photos of them as young men together; then Guardiola became a coach, and they're both quite elite now, so you can see them standing on the touchline yelling at their players (and occasionally at each other) as they coach against one another.

Anyway I guess AS Roma is my team now because Mourinho's kind of an asshole but he's definitely the funniest asshole I've ever seen coaching a sport, and I liked Dybala's style and then Mourinho lured him to Rome, so IDEK.

[arcalian]

I've decided that the tlovm vibes are that Percy is ambidextrous because theres such a frequent swapping of which hand he shoots with and it's not consistent. I've seen a lot of ppl thinking that the right handed scenes are solely Orthax in control but there's several key orthax frames/scenes that are left handed (namely your soul is forfeit and when percy explodes in demony fire at Anders). He swaps hands at least once in the fight vs Cassandra, in the shot of Percy facing demon/shadow percy in his hallucinations Percy's right hand has the gun and orthax percys has it in the left.

It's not even all righty during the orthax fight, that big dramatic back shot where he's facing the party ? Left handed. (Also little things like when he's going to leave without the party reaching for the door handle with his right hand, the sword after archie dies, etc). I just cant buy he's solely dominant lefty, even if orthax is super powerful he cant just like. Make Percy magically aim good with a hand hes not already extremely comfortable using, plus given the two bad news shots he's defo right eye dominant)

So anyways I read it as like. Percy being like. Not just ambidextrous but forcibly taught himself to be, which imo fits his character so deeply. Percy's actions first and foremost are abt keeping himself from ever being vulnerable ever again, certainly can't have the weakness of only being able to use one hand, if something were to happen to his dominant one, how could he protect himself?

Obviously coming at it from that angle begs to differ what was his dominant hand originally. I think its possible that was the left hand, given the shots of baby Percy, plus theres an obvious like. Tendency to if he's threatening someone up close to grab/grip with that left hand and point the gun with the right, to the point where I think it's clearly about having more control. The two times he does this obviously he had very shortly previously had it in the left (when he shoots Anders out the window, he had just previously done the trick shot with the left, and then again with Delilah, it was in the left from him shooting her in the chamber up until he grabs her hair and puts the gun under her chin [side bar he also grabs vex with the left when hes doing his zooming around but thats less relevant]).

Anyways tl;dr while Percy was likely a lefty as a child at this point its mostly irrelevant bc hes definitely become ambidextrous through his pathological need to be able to protect himself from being vulnerable.

[lookingforhappy]

huh, yeah

Right:

Left:

Middle:

It can't be lefties (Five and Lila are both Left Handed) vs righties bc Klaus is also a lefty.

maybe it's to do with the Commission? or the subway? Five and Lila were both seen in the subway & they both were employed by the Commission. Diego is seen by escalators which might be in the subway, and he was also almost employed by the Commission.

idk

The new posters, everyone is sitting mainly on their right with the exception of Lila, Five and Diego. Lila and Five sit on the left and Diego is in the middle. Does it mean anything or just random position????
