Weird Peeve Time. Calling Lab Grown Gemstones Fake Is Stupid Because Its The Same Shit Just Not Formed

Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones “fake” is stupid because it’s the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it’s all fuckign carbon

So, to make sure I understand- if the individual calls themself a man, they're a man, regardless of appearance and behavior?

(I PROMISE ITS NOT A GROSS TAKE!!! I really really promise, I'm just stupid and wanna double check, cause I overthink my own gender way too much T~T)

Art is absolutely gorgeous by the way!

thinking about that one video that I saw awhile ago that was like "how to properly draw trans characters" and while I agree it's a somewhat helpful video, I think calling a non op trans man character with breast "bad trans rep" kinda makes me go insane. by that logic all my art is "bad trans rep"

counterpoint: If you're a shill, its not really a problem

Then again, if you're a freak who listens to their liked music list like me, then the genre mixing or other annoying factors prolly aren't a factor, so you're not getting the full scope of the annoyance

WE NEED TO KILL HIM

really helpful technique ^ once you know how to divide by halves and thirds it makes drawing evenly spaced things in perspective waaay easier:

How to Write a Ruthless Character

A ruthless character is all about the endgame. They don’t care how they get there, lying, cheating, using others, it’s all fair game as long as they win. When writing them, show how they can cut off any distractions or emotions, making decisions that others would hesitate over.

These characters don't let feelings get in the way. Compassion, guilt, regret? Nah, they don’t have time for that. Show how they can turn off their emotions and make choices purely based on logic. They’ll do things that seem heartless to everyone else, but for them, it’s just another part of the plan. It’s not that they don’t feel anything, they just choose not to.

Boundaries? What boundaries? A ruthless character doesn’t care about rules unless they can bend them to get ahead. They’ll do things no one else dares, crossing lines others are too scared to even approach. The more uncomfortable their actions make people, the more it emphasizes just how far they’re willing to go. For them, pushing limits is just another day.

They don’t act on impulse. Every move they make is planned, and every risk they take is calculated. They weigh the pros and cons before acting, and they’re always three steps ahead of everyone else. Writing a ruthless character means showing that they’ve already figured out how to win while everyone else is still trying to figure out the rules.

Betrayal is their go-to move when things get tough. Friends, allies, even people who trust them, no one is safe. They’ll turn on anyone if it benefits them. And the best part? They’ll sleep just fine afterward. Show how others react to their betrayals, shocked, hurt, furious, while your ruthless character shrugs it off like, “It had to be done.”
