While I often seem to be associated with having a “no-nonsense personality,” from my point of view, I seem to engage in quite a lot of nonsense.
So either I don’t quite understand the meaning of the phrase due to my blissfully foreign upbringing, or everyone who has ever referred to me as having such a personality is a big fat liar.
They just mean you don’t get involved in OTHER people’s nonsense, only your own
Which means what, exactly.
You enjoy your own shenanigans but as soon as someone elses shenanigans effect you, you are like, “Oh fuck no. Liz out.”
why are people even questioning obesity in america
why is your tea liquidised?
….. Where exactly do you live that the tea isn’t liquid?!?
ENGLAND. WHERE IT IS IN A BAG AND YOU MAKE IT YOURSELF.
like what do you do with already liquid tea? Microwave it?
No it’s sweet tea you drink it cold
WHO DRINKS COLD TEA???
HAVE YOU NEVER HAD ICED/SWEET TEA BEFORE?!?
so i reblogged this from a british person and i’ve been laughing at their tags for 600 years
England, you stole tea from China. You’ve had it a mere 4 centuries compared to their 30+. Don’t play like you’re some kind of authority.
[skeletons ooh-ing]
Shots fired. World War Tea has officially begun.
Isn’t tea nothing more than hot leaf juice?

I mean, some Alicorns aren’t overpowered or Mary Sues. If they have a set back story on why they are an Alicorn, it’s okay. But I hate how people see an Alicorn OC and think “Oh look, another Mary Sue”. It angers me greatly…

Alicorns are supposed to be powerful thought. You can’t have someone be an alicorn and make them a waitress. They need to be incredibly powerful because the onlyt four we have seen can shape the earth itself.
They are supposed to be powerful. But that is just more of a reason to not make alicorn OCs
I fixed one of your updates and made his nose the correct length,

Technically someone already fixed that update, but thanks all the same!
That is the update where he has the longest nose. It’s the best side shot of his nose.

The DA point system is a horrible, irritating scam that pisses me off to no end.
Let’s think about it this way.
Sure, you can go to the store and buy, with real money, a copy of monopoly. Within that game comes a whole bunch of fake money… and, because that money is fake, there are ridiculously high amounts of it at an inflated price. It really LOOKS like a lot of money, and you can use it to buy things in monopoly! Which is cool and fun! But if you take it anywhere outside of monopoly you’re screwed. Who kept your real money that you paid for this? The company who produced the game… sure, you could try to get your money back by exchanging it for money, but you won’t get as much and, honestly, isn’t it kind of too much trouble?
now, this is all well and good because that’s a game. and what you got out of it is what you paid for: fun…. now here’s what DA points do.
They basically tell people it’s okay to actually PAY artists with monopoly money.
And because DA points are relatively cheap (it adds up, DA is making mint off of this shit don’t even think they aren’t) for such a high amount, suddenly even reasonable or undercharged (yes, even undercharged) artist commission prices look absolutely OUTRAGEOUS in this fake monopoly money and the buyer starts to demand a cheaper price.
cheaper prices so they can keep more of their pretend money
becasue it looks like a LOT of pretend money.
and it isn’t.
This is… ungodly, exceedingly harmful to artists. it breeds a mentality that is terrible. It basically outright says your time and effort aren’t even worth real money and, worst of all, DeviantART is using it as a means to keep all of the money for as little loss as possible. They are basically ripping off all of their (sometimes paying!) customers (I know I have a sub account).
What DeviantART is doing is the equivalent in paying your employees with monopoly money. It is shameful, it is harmful and it is childish. It is belittling and every time I am asked if I can accept points for commissions, only to decline and give a real price, I am treated like I’m asking for something outrageous.
what makes me the angriest about this is how people have given into it and bought into it as okay, the norm, etc.
They treat work, HARD WORK, like the equivalent of a go-gaia paper doll exchange.
Commission artists already GROSSLY undercharge for what is actual, real freelance or professional prices, and this is doing nothing more than wiping that out even further. Have you seen these 50 point commissions? Think about how lthat looks like a big number.
wow, 50 dollars could get me at least a nice solid drawing or even a lineart from some artists! hell, some artists even charge 50 for nice rendered stuff (which also makes me cry but… ok)
how muchmoney is 50 points, really, if it’s 80 points to a dollar?
how wrong is it to ask someone to work/design for you for LESS than a dollar?
THAT is why DA points are a scam.

That’s why paypal is one of hte better ways of doing payment. As long as you select that you are paying fo services and don’t say what services because:
If you select goods, they will charge you for shipping because they think you are buying a physical object.
And if you mention furry or… Well, any kind of fandom, they will seizse your account.
So yeah, the best way to do commissions is to pay with paypal but discuss the details through skype or something.

Let’s face it, EVERY super-powered being on Earth faces this dilemma, and that’s what makes them so cool.
Wasn’t people being scared and angry at super heroes basically the plot of xmen?

Rewatcing missioncraft. More specifically, the parts where Utorak leaves and then there’s a christmas miracle.
This is where it starts and it’s my favourite part in the entire series.
