it feels very casual when people do it irl too and there isn't the same artistic quality or tension you'd see in media.
but two cute guys doing it casually can be so hot too i think… as long as it's in anime i guess. it's just hard to nail

I think what makes smoking look cool is that the act of smoking is the main activity a character focuses on while smoking. So everything else, like the argument or physical fight they're involved in, is secondary to them which makes very aloof and badass.

Not even smoking myself (besides irregularly visiting a hookah bar maybe one night per month).

For me the main appeal is the implication that the character has an oral fixation, which most smokers usually do. Especially if the character is shown to be constantly smoking that means they constantly need to have something between their lips, and if you follow that line of thinking to its logical conclusion, it leads to some excellent blowjob scenarios hehehe.
(Also not a smoker, I have asthma kek)

Banned yes but iirc no one has responded to her with an actual response, it's disheartening trying to start a conversation only for a schizo to come out and start shit and the nonas only reply jive at the schizo poster instead of contributing to the original question.

>>7056
It doesn't really matter. It's notoriously easy to ban evade there and that person will be back within 3 days even if they don't ban evade. And that's not the only schizoposter in that thread. There's only like three things left that you can talk about in there without someone jumping down your throat to insult you. It's a lost cause.

Made me think of the handsome Jose one again…

I love how much Three Callaberos art is out there, especially since I don't think the movie is that popular in general?

Thank you Japanese fujos.

Oh also nonna which two do you like together best? I like Jose/Donald the most mainly because of Saludos Amigos.

>>7072
I would genuinely love to know why Japanese fan artist are so much more prone to nuking their shit

>>7073
Probably insecurity. I can kind of relate I am very insecure about posting my art on tumblr or twitter and be seen while simultaneously desiring to contribute to a fandom I love and shill my favorite ship.
For me it's not even about actual conflicts, I never had issues with antis or anything, it's just some anxiety knowing that the whole world can see your coomer or shipping art. It's somehow a very private thing to reveal, something not even my friends know much about and I don't talk about feelings IRL so posting that feels weird lol. From what I have heard certain Asian cultures seem to be way more introverted too compared to westerners and especially US Americans.

I was always baffled by their ability to overshare the most cringe private things online without a hint of shame or fear lol
I am also the guy that makes new accounts for certain fandoms because I am afraid to "reveal" too much on a single account and I also don't want to bother my followers with a second fandom they're most likely not into.

I nuked shit in the past for feeling insecure about my old art but I try to not do this anymore.

I wonder if it's something related to copyright laws. Even though doujin culture is a thing, I noticed there's some artists on the commission platform Skeb who will only draw OCs and don't count MMO player characters as OCs. Also JP users will more often put big copyright markers on game screenshots they post on twitter. While that's not directly related to a JP artist nuking their pixiv, it makes me think that they're super antsy about offending the copyright holders of the characters they're drawing and that would make it more likely for them to find a reason to delete everything.

I agree. Even if it's not political but fetishistic it visually comes down to the same thing and I hate it. It's like the difference between futa and ~transfem~. I will say that lately modern fandom has given me motivation again to draw more cause I want to get good enough to contribute stuff I actually enjoy to a fandom.

>>6863
I see male writers as really good sandbox builders. Then the fujoshi who populate the sandbox mold the sand into pleasing shapes. Reading a work that pisses you off sometimes is the entry fee to the sandbox.

A lot of things penned by women don't give me fujo brainrot simply because women are far less likely to accidentally write an outstanding BL story with a character they plan to pair with somebody else (sasunaru). They tend to better understand what romantic dynamics are and if there is BL in female-made fandoms it's either by design (Wangxian) or the canon couples are so boring/underdeveloped people will instead boil characters down to their favorite tropes and go to town (enemies-to-lovers, Draco/Harry).

REAL

I suppose this thread is going to be locked in a few days since the 500 posts have been reached

Guess I'll have to scroll a lot to see if I find anything not archived anywhere. If not I just saw Danbooru has some of her art so I'm glad it wasn't lost.

I think I just doomed myself. Does anybody know you to even log into twitter again after logging out? I wanted to change something, I generated a Back-Up code AND downloaded the Authenticator App to be double safe. Turns out neither works??
I guess nothing related to twitter functions anymore. The only viable two-way authentication would be the SMS but lol of course that's only for premium users. I have no idea why the back up code doesn't work considering that I just generated it and of course did I never use it before. All attempts to log in via the app also fail since the codes it is sending me are wrong? Why?

I wish there was the option to just say NO to Security and be free again. I don't any security. I just want a simple log-in/log-out function. I fucking hate everything

>>6807
Unironically the only way we're ever going to have a safe space for artists is if the artists themselves make their own pixiv inspired art site. cohost while not having an exclusive focus on art is the closest thing we've had to that but even then it was ran by antis and died quickly.

Very worth it! I’ve been playing Splatoon since the first game, and 3 is hands down the best one in the series.

Hungary from Hetalia. I used to thought her being a fujoshi was fanon but apparently it has always been canon.

I love Frau koujiro from robotic notes

do you realize lc "culture" is just 4chan scrotes culture copypasted right? There is nothing unique, every single term or trend lc has had was just a slightly altered thing from 4chan.

I lurk on that thread. Such beautiful art all around. And thank you for the link, I've not read that yet.

Almost 900 posts? Time for a new thread. Bump limit will be reduced soon to help with site load times.
