#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

[deerydear]

the other day, I was sitting at a bar downtown, heard some guy critiqueing something on TV as "problematic".... the way that you can tell that their opinions are something they read on the computer-screen with the assumption of "lots of people agreeing with them", their voices go up in a higher pitch. They sound like they think they're imparting some "secret knowledge", but if it's something I know for a fact is not true....

it's funny.

tl;dr: the Smug is spreading

the idea of the internet connecting people and allowing the flow of information and knowledge in an unprecedented way was a great dream but the reality of being exposed to thousands of random peoples opinions at any time in the economic and social organization of social media has just made increasingly cynical because the majority of people seem to just have a vague “peasant easily convinced of fascism” mentality. this is why twitter is an op

[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.

Do you have any headcanons for Legs? If not, then that’s okay <:)

Oh you better believe I have headcanons, especially for a man like Legs. He's pretty mysterious and doesn't say a lot which gives me the pleasure to make stuff up about him based on the little things we do know from the show. Legs is mysterious, very, he ain't saying nothin, he ain't trustin nobody and the only people he talks to are his close friends. And some of these headcanons are:

Now it's obvious that both him and Louie have been friends with Tony since childhood but I believe, what happened before they met, Legs had his own gang and would usually terrorize other students on the playground of the same catholic school the three were all attending. And one day when Tony witnessed what Legs and his team were doing to a kid, he realized the talent that this young boy has and so he asked if Legs would join his junior mafia. Legs said no at first but after he realized who Tony was the son of, he decided to give the junior mafia a try and what followed after was a long and tight friendship. (I will write a huge origin story one day, with thoughts and my own imagination at play. Because if the writers are not gonna do it then I'll do it myself)

In "Homie the clown" he said that he saw four krustys even after he rubbed his eyes to see straight, (Even though there were only two krustys) which makes me think that he could possibly be short sighted and therefore would wear glasses. Though he doesn't at times when he's at work because according to himself, "No person would ever be afraid of a mobster with glasses." But he does wear them while he's at home.

We obviously know he has a son named "Calves" who appeared in the comics along with Louie's son and Michael. But I choose to see that as non-canon (Since he only came up once in comics, counting as his only appearance and the show never hints to Legs's son), yeah Calves is cute but I don't really see him being Legs's son. Who I do see as his daughter would be Piper from Bossy riot in "Bart vs. Itchy & Scratchy", she has the same level of mischievousness as Calves does and is pretty extreme in her pranks. She's obviously Legs's daughter, with the way she's already in a sort of gang like friendgroup like Legs once was in his early childhood. (But I admit, calves could also exist in the real show. Though he would be the child of Legs's ex-wife, they divorced because of an affair he went through and so he sort of lost custody over Calves. Calves was also like 2 years old when that happened.) - Despite being so mysterious, he's actually the most kindest of the bunch. And he has been ever since childhood, his usual rambunctious demeanor was just for show and not tell what lies underneath him. But I do admit, he was more wild as a young kid than he is now. That likely changed due to his age but he is more calmer and friendlier than his childhood counterpart. He's the type of guy you can always wend yourself to if you have any problems and he also works as a sort of therapist for the other members, seeing as he has a degree in Psychology that he studied for as a second profession if his plans didn't go through in college. (he's a smart man, like I said)

Now Johnny Tightlips is a capo and Frankie is a soldier, Tony is the underboss and Don vittorio is the actual boss. Other mobsters we see are genuinely just soldiers or associates. Which leaves Louie and Legs to be uncategorized, And they're not really caporegimes either since there's already Johnny, Lefty and Righty in that position. Mafia's usually have three or four capos but I still choose to see Legs and Louie not as such, it just doesn't make sense. They started out with Tony as a small gang with only themselves to trust, it would have made sense if those two were capos back then since the gang was still small and struggling in the east end but as time flew by and more joined, Louie and Legs decided to step down from their capo positions to make room for Lefty and Righty, two more experienced capo's. And so they would stand back and just be hit-men, still involved in Tony's plans and operations.

Their friendship with Tony is what brings me to this conclusion, as capo's they had to spend most of their time outside on the streets with their soldiers, not even being close to Tony. So after Lefty and Righty joined, the two reduced themselves to being hit-men and bodyguards of Tony so that they could stay closer by his side and to protect him. Which would even make sense in reality since the two were never stated to be capo's, in the book Chief Wiggum's Book of Crime and Punishment, Legs is classified as the "Hired Goon" And the police records on the Springfield Mafia describe Legs as a "Gangster/Criminal/Suspicious" type of mobster. It wouldn't make sense for them to be capo's if they are so closely connected with Tony.

You know, Legs is very accompanied with the yakuza and other japanese mafias in springfield and the U.S.A so I feel like he knows a bit of japanese to talk with them. And he probably took karate when he was young.

Apparently in the Simpsons: Tapped out game Legs has 172 swiss army knives and he can't pay his rent because of that, which makes me think that he's got a serious problem. But hey, the man loves knives.

what He also mentioned in Tapped out was that he got a Master's in Fiscal Studies which makes me think Since he's an experienced mob doctor like Tony himself said

(Look at his cute ass smile when Tony mentions the slug, that is the smile of a son whose Father is telling other relatives about his talents) Which got me thinking. Okay so he went to college for two different reasons

He prolly studied another subject if his career as a doctor didn't go as planned. He's a pretty smart dude but still manages to fall for pranks set by other people, including Bart's. (One example is in the hilarious "Homie the clown" when Krusty asked to go the bathroom but actually left the country in reality, Legs said "When He's done in there, I gotta go" (Oh Legs, you sweet innocent man)

We don't even know his real name other than he's known as "Legs" because he's tall? And it can't be Max Legman 'cuz that just sounds like a child made it up, it's probably just an alias he uses when checking into hotels or telling girls in the nightclub to keep his cover. ( He's also shown to be quite the party animal seeing as he has appeared in some scenes like "Homerazzi" and "Flaming Moe's". Man likes to have fun.)

We know he has a slouched back and poor posture, which leaves some options for why it became that way. Maybe a injury to his spine or a disease that formed in his early childhood. I personally believe it could be Scheuermann's Kyphosis that caused his figure to turn out that way, it formed in his early childhood and when he was taken to the doctors because of it they advised for him a back brace since he was still a child and growing. His parents couldn't afford that, neither could they get physical therapy for him, they just barely could get money for pain medication to at least have their son in not all so much pain. But nowadays he got the needed Money to get physical therapy so that his condition isn't gonna get any worse.

I feel like he likes to listen to classical Italian music, opera especially, he's a big fan of Renata Tebaldi and Andrea Bocelli. Though his musical taste often gets in the way of Louie's whenever they are driving in the car, always arguing about what to put on. And sometimes even Tony gets caught in between their squabble, forcing the three to often drive around just sitting in silence.

His favorite dessert is Panna cotta. Which he usually orders when he, Louie, Johnny, Frankie and Tony go to La Coffee Nostra for some afternoon tea break from their work. - he's a professional pool player, just try and challenge him to a match, in the end you will only leave with a broken spirit. - He's honestly such a women magnet, not because it's his manners and ways of treating ladies but because it's also of his looks. (Man's got a good fashion taste) Each time he enters a new club all the ladies just swarm him and treat him to a drink. He often leaves clubs with lipstick marks all over his face. - Since he's the tallest out of everyone in the family, he likes to pick on Frankie and Louie who are the shortest of the bunch. They know it's all just fun and jokes but even they can get annoyed by Legs. Especially when he bends his knees to get down on their eye level to talk with them. Now these are just some of my many headcanons about it, Made for my own enjoyment.

i was, like, yesterday years old when i learned that writing in english is actually harder for left-handed people. not just the same motions flipped, not just more difficult to learn when you're a kid because the teachers don't know how to work with you, but actually physically harder. because english is written left to right, righties get to pull while lefties have to push. and that's harder! and it doesn't seem like much but it adds up. not just in the shaping of each letter but also in the way you even have to orient your hand compared to the paper - that hook hand position that fucks up your wrist after 20 minutes of writing? righties don't have to do that! they can just rest their hand on the paper in alignment with their wrist! it's not even an issue for them! and because of the differences in the force needed to pull vs push a modern viscous-ink ballpoint pen, your typical rightie can go further without hand cramps or strain compared to your typical leftie.

i know this sounds like overemotional rambling on an irrelevant subject, and to an extent it is, but low-key this almost feels like finding out i'm autistic all over again. what the fuck do you mean not everyone has to struggle like this?

Minnesota Twins-Miami Marlins Series Preview

4.3.23-Tyler Mahle RHP (6-8) 4.40 ERA Vs. Johnny Cueto RHP (8-10) 3.35 ERA (2022 MLB Stats)

4.4.23-Kenta Maeda RHP (6-5) 4.66 ERA (2021 Stats) Vs. Sandy Alcantara RHP (0-0) 4.76 ERA (2023 Stats)

4.5.23-Pablo Lopez RHP (1-0) 0.00 ERA Vs. Jesus Luzardo LHP (1-0) 0.00 ERA

The Twins At A Glance- The Twins started the season on a perfect note. They swept the Royals and only gave up four runs in the three-game series. Joey Gallo shined on Sunday with two homers, three hits, and four RBI. Byron Buxton is hitting 6-for-13 (.462) to start the year. Trevor Larnach has hit the ball well and went 5-for-11 this past weekend. Max Kepler is the rare one not hitting. He is 0-for-13 to start the year. You might see Willi Castro get a start in right field once or twice. I think he starts against left Jesus Luzardo and maybe another game. The Twins are staying with a strict platoon of Nick Gordon versus righties and Kyle Farmer against lefties at second base. Donovan Solano came in on Opening Day and got an RBI single for Joey Gallo. The pitching staff has a 1.33 ERA over twenty-seven innings. Rocco Baldelli was able to give Griffin Jax, Jhoan Duran, and Caleb Thielbar days off on Sunday. Jorge Lopez won’t be available for Monday’s game after pitching in three of the past four days. Cole Sands has yet to appear out of the bullpen as well. 

The Marlins At A Glance- The Marlins lost three of four games to the Mets over the weekend. The offense was the main problem as they put up just eight runs in the four games. Luis Arraez is off to a good start in his new home. He is hitting 9-for-16 (.563) with a double and an RBI. Garrett Cooper hit 5-for-13 (.385) with a homer against the Mets. The team picked up Jean Segura to be their everyday third basemen. Jazz Chisholm was moved to center field after the Luis Arraez traded. He hit 2-for-13 in the Mets series. The Marlins also signed Yuli Gurriel, who made the team out of camp. The pitching is the strength of this team and they might have one of the best starting rotations even without Pablo Lopez. Sandy Alcantara is coming off a Cy Young season, Jesus Luzaro is a good lefty that nobody has heard about, and Johnny Cueto signed with Miami after a good year for the White Sox in 2022. He will make his Marlins debut on Monday night. The Marlins bullpen gave up eight runs over 16 1/3 innings so far. Matt Barnes and JT Chargois have thrown two shutout innings each. AJ Puk has the lone save out of the bullpen. 

What To Watch For- The Twins are (9-7) all-time against the Marlins. The two teams last met in 2019 and the Twins took two of three games in Miami. The Twins have won four of the last six meetings against the Marlins. Tyler Mahle is (0-2) with a 3.00 ERA in three starts against the Marlins. Johnny Cueto is (5-1) with a 2.62 ERA in seven starts versus the Twins. Kenta Maeda is (1-2) with a 2.28 ERA in five games against Miami. Sandy Alcantara gave up seven runs over 4 2/3 innings in his only game against the Twins. Pablo Lopez is (14-15) with a 3.45 ERA in fifty starts at Marlins Park. Jesus Luzardo threw 5 1/3 shutout innings in his only start facing the Twins. Obviously there is the Pablo Lopez-Luis Arraez trade that happened over the winter. Both guys will meet up with their former teammates. The Twins will need to solve the Marlins good starting pitching before heading back home this weekend.

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...

[hjellacott]

Exactly. Additionally, the world isn't black and white. You can be a left-wing and every now and then agree with a right-wing idea and vice-versa. You can have a bit of different ideologies. You can even be a hard lefty/righty and still look at the other side, understand why they say a certain thing and not outright hate it.

Only children with very few understanding of politics would simplify matters so much that they see political parties like Star Wars Jedi vs Dark Force.
