truly wild how driving really does become like piloting a mech after a while. like it sounds so car-bro-y but the car genuinely does become like an extension of your body. your muscles are simply making the correct micro-movements to perfectly manouvre a giant piece of machinery through a constantly moving maze while your brain is busy singing karaoke. you can physically feel when a gap is too small for your car-sona to fit through, like a cat putting its whiskers into a crevice. your brain is suddenly able to do on-the-fly s=d/t calculations in a milisecond and tell you exactly how quickly you need to move to avoid an oncoming vehicle while turning across the road. why does driving unlock the unused 89% of my brain

[copperbadge]

What the hell.

Is that what driving is for most people? I looked in the notes expecting to see a bunch of bewildered reactions but everyone is agreeing with OP and it's not that I don't believe you, but like.

I drove for years and hated every second of it because I was constantly aware of the fact that I was in charge of a massive chunk of speeding steel and glass capable of causing death if I sneezed at the wrong moment. Not for a single second did the car feel like a part of me. Driving always felt deeply unnatural and highly dangerous. It is indeed Wild to think that the vast majority of people apparently smoothly mind-meld with their car.

No wonder I hate driving so much. Everyone else is having a fun Carsona drift experience while I'm strapped into the pilot seat of a complicated memory game whose penalty for losing is dismemberment.

[cheetour]

Ah.

...I wish I could mind-meld with cars. It would make finding work a lot easier

FINAL DAY. FUCKED UP THE NEOPETS ALTADOR CUP AGAIN. Fuck my stupid baka life

Artfight, part 3! For: ~SailingKobold, @cold3rose, ~RexDrawz, and ~Hiya2004.

That's 12 drawings...! At this point, artfight is my biggest output of art every year... I don't do so much drawing for myself these days. But that's okay... I like drawing for other people...!

[cheetour]

something thats an important headcanon to me is those pokémon who look like fully grown people still have approximately doglike intelligence. like it looks like a man but you are absolutely keeping that thing as a pet. like "my throh has humanlike hands and he can open doors and this morning i came downstairs and he'd opened one of the cupboards and taken out all of the pots and put them on the floor and crawled inside and closed the door then couldn't figure out how to open it again and when i found him he gave me a shameful look that told me knew he had done something wrong but he didn't know what"

when a cartoon character has a little nutsack or dick visible at all times it might raise some eyebrows but is ultimately seen as funny & acceptable. on the other hand you couldn't make Crazy Frog with a cunt. one of society's great inequalities

[raccoonmilf]

There’s a little Irish coochie gargoyle I think!! I can’t remember her name, but she’s silly and is sometimes found over church doorways

[cheetour]

Sheela na gig - Wikipedia

Sheela na Gig! She's a Christian symbol to help ward off the devil. According to old folklore, if the devil comes around, he will be warded away if a woman flashes her coochie at him, on account of the coochie being a holy and cleansing sort of thing. It's the gateway to life after all. Proof that some societies recognised the power of cunt

I've made 5 artfight attacks and I haven't gotten any yet. not a problem, just a quirk of the way the event works, but it keeps making me laugh every time I open the site. alas, my bindle and my rags, I am the poorest and humblest user on artfight, I have never seen but a coin or copper

I first played the altador cup on neopets dot com in 2009, the fourth ever altador cup. and i joined team tyrannia for no reason in particular. and the next year, there was a signing bonus for joining the same team again. and then again. and the next five years. I got the prize for ten years. this June I got the neomail from the organiser of the board group for team tyrannia reminding me to sign up. it's 2026. 17 years of tyrannia. one time i wrote a funny fake team interview for them. but now,

i'm sorry loryche i have to go. my ppeople need me. my neohome is 85532 Market Street, Neopia Central. i live in the 85532nd house and i'm taking my pets to watch their local team, they are buying all the rainbow merch, they say they ship JeMiri, it's not up to me. thanks for all the loyalty rewards but this is cultural. for me

No spoilers from me but if any of my mutuals have the ability to go see the TADC finale in the cinema but were on the fence:

YOU SHOULD GOOOOOO SEEEEE ITTTT I thoroughly enjoyed it

[cheetour]

no spoilers from me either. I made a reddit post predicting what the ending would be 2 months ago. on June 19 I will reblog this post again and mention which details I predicted correctly.

[cheetour]

That's right you sons of bitches I was right about everything. I stayed respectfully silent but me and my 28 upvotes on reddit knew the fuck what was up.

We're so back!!!!!! Come get me!!!

[estrellasrojas]

“How many times do you see where a man or woman has shot another through jealousy! The standard of purity has decided that it is right, "it shows spirit," "it is justifiable" to—murder a human being for doing exactly what you did yourself,—love the same woman or same man! Morality! Honor! Virtue!! Passing from the moral to the physical phase; take the statistics of any insane asylum, and you will find that, out of the different classes, unmarried women furnish the largest one. To preserve your cruel, vicious, indecent standard of purity (?) you drive your daughters insane, while your wives are killed with excess. Such is marriage. Don't take my word for it; go through the report of any asylum or the annals of any graveyard. Look how your children grow up. Taught from their earliest infancy to curb their love natures—restrained at every turn! Your blasting lies would even blacken a child's kiss. Little girls must not be tomboyish, must not go barefoot, must not climb trees, must not learn to swim, must not do anything they desire to do which Madame Grundy has decreed "improper." Little boys are laughed at as effeminate, silly girl-boys if they want to make patchwork or play with a doll. Then when they grow up, "Oh! Men don't care for home or children as women do!" Why should they, when the deliberate effort of your life has been to crush that nature out of them. "Women can't rough it like men." Train any animal, or any plant, as you train your girls, and it won't be able to rough it either. Now will somebody tell me why either sex should hold a corner on athletic sports? Why any child should not have free use of its limbs? These are the effects of your purity standard, your marriage law. This is your work—look at it! Half your children dying under five years of age, your girls insane, your married women walking corpses, your men so bad that they themselves often admit Prostitution holds against PURITY a bond of indebtedness. This is the beautiful effect of your god, Marriage, before which Natural Desire must abase and belie itself. Be proud of it!”

—Voltairine de Cleyre, “Sex Slavery” (1890)

Tracing and guidelining for posing help/referencing are now allowed on Art Fight, with restrictions.

The rule relating to DNIs (“Do Not Interact” lists) has been reverted. Only age-related DNIs are allowed.

Photobashing and collaging are now allowed to be used in attack and character image backgrounds, as well as in tracing, guidelining, and visual referencing resources. Characters whose designs are comprised of photobashed or collaged elements will continue to be disallowed.

For a detailed look at the results of the feedback form, as well as a full explanation of the updated rules, please refer to the newspost itself here:

Art Fight

An art gifting game

Thank you once again for your feedback and your continued patience with these changes!

I commend the mods on making a ruling that is very clearly informed by and caters to the community, and doing so in a way that doesn't dampen the spirit of the game or raise the bar for entry to it exponentially. Regardless of whether everyone loves the ruling or not, i think it is incredibly well-informed and well thought-out. I just think the mods deserve recognition for seeing where improvement could happen, addressing it, and then fixing where things could be better in their response
