Was ist diese absolut absurde Obsession mit ersten Sätzen in Büchern? Ich würde niemand, der ein Buch nach dem ersten Satz bewertet, auch nur ein abgebranntes Streichholz anvertrauen. Die Handlung muss auf den ersten paar Seiten irgendwie charmant genug sein, mich zu interessieren. Mehr nicht.

Bei Merry war eine Zeit lang das Auslegerpapier ganz populär zum Zerreißen XD aber nur wenn es auf einer glatten Oberfläche lag, NICHT, wenn es zusammengeknüllt war.

*porn art

Tristan Lánstad @desastertristan.bsky.social · 6h

I can respect any artist who feels like drawing a woman with a gigantic oversized ass that no real woman would have and just does so. In the realm of things doable on this very earth, that seems like a downright wholesome activity to me compared to harassing or abusing other people.

Most erotic and porn artists I know have great respect and love for their fellow artists and wouldn't want anyone to be forced to emulate their style. And most consumers of that art are also wholesome people. I enjoy porn art. Yes, even the exaggerated stuff.

Tristan Lánstad @desastertristan.bsky.social · 6h

I have to say it's kind of exhausting how many people when trying to defend more naturalistic designs for characters or stylized art that is not conventionally attractive they will slam all erotic and porn out as 'gooner brain' ect when most porn and erotic artists are lovely wholesome people.

Yep, art can be as horny or not horny as the artist decides and it should be respected. If big boobies are the default for EVERY game that's bad, but if no big boobies is the supposed default for all games, that's also bad.

Das ist natürlich auch echt scheiße 😔 es tut mir immer leid um solche Projekte und es gibt zu viele Leute die durch Vandalismus die Kosten so in die Höhe treiben dass es einfach nicht mehr machbar ist...

Ansonsten, wenn es möglich ist, auch mal schauen ob im Umkreis andere Sammelstellen sind. Weil am Ende, wenn das Zeug durchnässt, wird es vermutlich entsorgt weil wer hat die Zeit das zu waschen und zu trocknen und dann zu schauen, ob es vielleicht doch noch gut ist?

Ist vielleicht eine Telefonnummer drauf oder andere Info wer das organisiert? Weil den Sammelnden ist ja schon daran gelegen, dass das Ding funktioniert. Vielleicht per E-Mail oder Telefon mal der verantwortlichen Organisation melden was da los ist. Damit die das reparieren können.

I can relate, I have seen fandoms do some really messed up things, luckily always from the outside. I rarely engage in fandom culture these days for various reasons.

Deutsche 'Wohltätigkeit' ist so oft einfach nur 'Hier, da ist mein ekliger alter Müll, schenk ich dir, kein Grund mir zu danken, das hab ich gern getan 😘 aber eine kleine Anzeige in der Zeitung wie cool und spendabel ich bin wäre natürlich schon schön 🥰'

Can't tell if this is meant to be sarcastic or serious but anyway, fair point, though I would argue that's true for every kind of group of people that are fans of something, though some fandoms are more wholesome than others. In the end you have to weed out the toxic people everywhere.

Boah, es gibt so Sachen, die regen mich auf. Zum Beispiel, dass immer wieder Leute beim Altkleidercontainer vor dem Haus einfach ihre Säcke mit Kleidung abladen, wenn der Container voll ist. Macht doch so eine Scheiße nicht. Das Zeug wird nass und landet nur noch im Müll. Schmeißt euren Müll weg.

So the same person in a totally different makeup is, somewhat, a different person, because what they project outwards is different.
In video game character cases a game studio decided on the look and makeup, therefore choosing what that character projects outwards, which is even more different.

Tristan Lánstad @desastertristan.bsky.social · 9h

I mean it makes sense because a person who does makeup does mindfully select which parts of their face to highlight, shape, color ect. Makeup gets too little credit as an important cultural technique that informs how a person views themselves and wants to project themselves outwards.

I would argue that a lot of the people who actually are into the big titty girl stereotype are pretty happy in their little corner of the internet and don't bother with trying to make the rest of the world conform to their taste as long as they have their specific thing.

This. They want the position of power to dictate how women are shown in games, even in games they would never play. It's the bending over backwards to their wants that they expect and are bullying everyone into. 'How was this game not made with straight white cis men in mind?'

My cartoon for the books page in this week’s @theguardian.com

Title: Where writers really get their ideas.

A writer, holding a note in his outstretched hand approaches a cart in the park. The front of the cart reads 'Fresh ideas' and a colourful umbrella shades the server who is reaching deep into the body of the cart (much as an ice-cream vendor might) and saying:
"I'm all out of mind-blowing concepts and heart-rending narratives, but I've got an acerbic observation, an unexpected outcome and a couple of amusing notions."

A transmasc who believes that only women can say something meaningful about gender, or that they only could have ever said anything worthwhile as a woman, is suffering massively from internalized self hatred but they are held up as fonts of wisdom.

And yet and yet! Internalized self hatred is what people want from transmascs because it reinforces their prejudice and desire to control us.
