It was sweet that Astarion was under the belief that no one would figure out he was a vampire before his big reveal. Most of us took one look at him and said "yep, that sure is a vampire right there." Most, however, doesn't include the party members. Some of these characters are supposed to be perceptive and intelligent, and I'm still convinced that if you press your ear against theirs you'd hear elevator music.

Over at Patreon, society6, and redbubble we don't let intellect devourers starve.

my one lunch break is my one break and this is the coworker that was "helping" me in my class yesterday. And by help I mean she sat and a chair and left me to do everything by myself

I dont have an account on the website you're hosting Time and Time again on, but I just wanted to say that I finally delve into it and binge read it in two days because it was just SO GOOD! You're really good at just. conveying so much with so little (the ''little'' being the frame of a webcomic its self and not like say, an animation) and your writing is really inspiring. I originally followed you for the midwestern church art you drew (At least thats what i remember that drawing was? I'm so sorry if not skjl;afjkld) and just. through and through your art is so inspirational.

Thank you so much <3

And no worries, I understand what you mean by "little" in this context. comics are an incredibly beautiful medium, but the framework of my story definitely would be best suited for something like TV, and trying to fit as many intricacies and nuances as possible into an "episode" is extremely hard haha

In a moving medium you just get to fit "more"... subleties of emotion and conveyed with music, you get controlled timing, minor expressions, quick shots, the actors themselves bring infinitely real layers to a performance - all things that simply can't be conveyed the same through single images all controlled by one person. Plus, you can just fit a lot more story/events into a 22/42 minute episode than you can into a 130 page comic, even though they end up taking about the same time to get through!

Of course I love comics and I want to keep making them as long as I can <3 This isn't to knock the medium at all, cause it definitely comes with unique perks over TV as well!!! It's like working in watercolor versus digitally. But I do appreciate you noticing the limitations of the medium and showing my work love regardless!

And yes, that was me! I'm really glad my art can reach you and that you're here.

When it comes to gacha there's a couple games that are good except for their gacha

Like if Genshin was a game I could actually buy and play and didn't have shitty dailies and let me buy DLC instead of wanting me to drain the GDP of a small nation... I think it's a pretty good game if you strip all that bullshit away (there's a reason when I found out you can run private servers of it I was interested... when they actually have all the quests and stuff working I'll probably download it and play through the story stuff)

Then there's pretty much exactly one gacha game I kinda respect that my friend plays, and it's actually a kinda sad story to me cause the company used to just make normal ass games, but they made this most recent one gacha just cause... they couldn't afford to keep going with the old model and this lets them keep funding development while releasing the story more episodically

I'd never call any gacha good, but they at least seem less bad and like they try to tune the rates to be fairer... but again, it's mostly sad that it feels less like a company going for a cash grab and more like them needing to be amoral to stay afloat

Anyway fuck the very concept of gacha, the people who let shit like lootboxes make money should be bludgeoned cause... saying that accepting gambling mechanics in games lead us here isn't some slippery slope fallacy... it's just recounting history

me and the generic extra strong Tylenol and the pure rage in my system

[mqfx]

so many fun lines from my OCs are the ones that look like utter nothingburger out of context so you can't like, put it in a web weave or smth. when jingwei says "you are not dismissed" / "where were you?" / "I have the situation well in hand" or jin ji says "not you, sweetness. I meant him" or when yi shun says "her" or when yu fen says "I did pay you to hurt me?" / "with you?" like none of these are poetic none of these are lyrical. but I believe humans being direct and simple has a certain appeal don't u think

shouldn’t have checked my bank account as expected my mother has taken thousands more dollars from my savings and has almost run me dry more or less. Cool!

[hyaciiintho]

🌸｡*ﾟ+. Kinda mad I'm deciding on this (but I'm always changing my mind on things dfhfg), but I think I'm gonna remake my rules/muse list doc, and instead, make them into a carrd. Then I can have muse bios/headcanons/relationships be docs.

Maybe I'll make a Mains/Exclusives carrd as a special treat.

shit like 'level 1 customer service rep for local utility' REQUIRING a degree is what will eventually make me become a terrorist

Man, today was absolutely mental. I don’t think I’ve ever come so close to losing it with a customer

Hey, things have been pretty rough for you lately. I know you need new glasses. Do you know how much it would cost? Do you know your prescription, if you do then Zenni is a cheap option? Do you have a Kofi or Paypal or something? I'm not in the USA so my money isn't worth as much, and we don't use the money apps that the US does, but right now I'm in a position where I can offer a small amount of financial help. Sending this on anon only because I'm awkward about asking this sort of thing and don't want to potentially cause offence.

hey thanks a ton like seriously but cause this is anonymous I can only respond publicly which kinda makes this more awkward for both of us lol

To younger broke adults getting into sex work here’s some common scams:

“I’ll pay you $ every week for feet/genital/fetish pics” they start a long conversation about this. Then they convince you to send some sample pics. They will try to get you to enact their fetishes with promise of later payment. Then they cut and run. They will be kind, promise large things, but become aggressive when you refuse. Lesson: never give things for free unless you’re specifically doing it for marketing. Personalized fetish content should require payment upfront.

“I want to be your sugar mommy/daddy” These are insanely common and will use a variety of tactics. They prey on vulnerable broke people who are desperate for stable cash. They may try to use a BDSM dynamic to make you feel sexy and submissive. They’ll start a long flirty conversation that makes you feel good and desired and confident. Then they might send a link…. Don’t click it! Or they might ask you to “prove your loyalty” as their sub/babygirl/whatever. Proving your loyalty will probably involve sending them money in some way. The most common way is to buy a gift card and tell them the code. If a stranger ever asks you to buy them a gift card that’s pretty much always an instant block.

The same thing goes for “pay pigs”. There are very few people out there actually into financial domination. Chances are people promising you access to their bank accounts are liars trying to get dommed by a stranger, or scammers trying to get money from you.

There’s essentially two main categories of scams in sex work: 1. Traditional scams (trying to get money, personal info, account access) and 2. Freebie scams (trying to get your SW content for free)

Freebie scams can involve someone trying to piss you off so you curse them out and they can go jerk it to being rejected by someone hot. You can just block people being weird.

As a new or established SWer you literally don’t owe anyone anything unless they’ve specifically paid for a service you offer.
