WARNING: ANIMAL CRUELTY
Apparently people have been adopting dogs and either killing them themselves or dropping them to a kill shelter (and one even said they were flying them to poor Asian areas to be eaten) under the Twitter hashtag #pitbulldropoff
This is completely cruel and evil and word needs to get around about these demons so everyone knows what these demons are planning to do to dogs once they get ahold of them.
If you know someone or if you yourself is planning to give away a pitty by craigslist soon, DONT and wait for awhile!!!! They act like they’re going to adopt them and act all nice then they get rid of them, don’t be fooled!!
DM me for uncensored names!!!!!!!!
Someone should tell these people I will fucking end them.
What the actual fuck?!? This is outrageous and disgusting!
BOOST THIS even if it doesn’t match your blog theme please
This may not be lbgt related but I couldn’t not reblog it to here. This blog is a platform that gives me a voice and I’m using it. Spread this. please.
The reason these “demons” are killing pitball puppies is because of how many children/babies pitbulls have killed
Every single breed of dog has the potential to kill. Every. Single. One. I have encountered far more violent dalmatians, chowchows, chihuahuas, and others compared to pitbulls. You are disgusting if you think the reported pitbull attacks can justify killing off an entire breed you vile excuse for a human being.
I am a veterinary science major who has studied many breeds and their behaviors and other traits. You don’t think labs have killed kids? That goldens haven’t? Pitbull attacks are the ones that are showed to media the most, while other instances of breeds attacking is kept on the downlow because of the appearances and stigmas around the breed. The main reasons for pitbull attacks? Their owners. Either they were abused or were not kept inside. Many attacks by dogs are also energetic excited pooches wanting to play but not knowing their strength (it’s how my doberman has left me scratched up).
I have been attacked by chow mixes, labs, collies, etc, but never a pitbull. I have a pit and she has only ever saved my life MULTIPLE times. You can’t justify the murder of an entire breed.
Killing a breed won’t save kids, responsible dog owners will.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏^^^^^^^^
@blightout
Say it louder for the assholes in the back
KILLING A BREED WON’T SAVE KIDS, RESPONSIBLE DOG OWNERS WILL.
THIS MADE ME FUCKING CRY HOW COULD YOU FUCKING- WHAT THE FUCK IS THE MATTER WITH PEOPLE
REBLOG THE FUCK OUT OF THIS EVERYONE
This is horrible and not a joke, pitbulls are already targeted for abuse but this is a another level. Do whatever you can to make sure this spreads around and gets stopped
ALL DOGS CAN BE GOOD DOGS IF YOU TREAT THEM RIGHT
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Fuck these shitbird brainless “humans”
🤬🤬🤬🤬 I will fucking end these fuckers
IM GONNA (ง’̀-‘́)ง
My favorite dog was a pit bull and she was the sweetest animal I have ever had, this is just down right disgusting to think people are doing this 😡😡😡😡😡
I am going to fucking throw hands
This is
Fucking
Disgusting
Pit bulls are so pretty and amazing and sweet! This is revolting! Please spread this around!
WTF?!
Can anyone please locate where these people are living now? Somebody please call the FBI on these murderers!
Bring down these heartless monsters! Pitbulls are good doggos who deserve love too!
This is my dog tucker. He’s a bully/coonhound mix. Being mostly bully, he looks a lot like a pit. He’s the sweetest dog I’ve had and I will strangle anyone who would do him harm just off how he looks
Awww! Such a cute pupper! Must protecc!
… I’m gonna be sick 🤢🤢🤢🤮
The puppy photo is adorable, but humanity is disgusting
It has been studied that the pitbull, when raised without abuse, is second only to the golden lab in their calm temperament. In the 1900s they were nicknamed Nannydogs and are still amazing with children. I was raised since I was very young with pitbulls. They are my preferred breed of dog since they are so calm.
To those that are wanting to kill these dogs, the branch of 'Pitbull' is wider than you may think and the only reason they have this stigma to this day is because people keep passing that negativity forward. Pits are not born aggressive!
I've been attacked by many dogs while growing up, but NEVER a pit. The stray or loose pits I have come across were always sweet and like big babies. Like ANY species, if you torture and abuse them, they will snap. Humans do the same. That's like calling for another mass genocide just because one group was forced to fight to survive.
That's exactly where the stigma came from. Dog breeders and owners that put these poor dogs in a ring where only one gets out alive.
We as humans have been at the top of the power chain for a while. But these ignorant people are part of what's going wrong in society these days. From LGBTQ+ discrimination to racism to hunting down animals that dont deserve it, it's like someone's always looking for something or someone to prey on and its disgusting.
I'd be lying if I said I didnt want to slowly torture and kill these abusers the same way they want to do to these dogs. But as a pacifist, I'll let karma come get them. They will find their torture and each of them will suffer in it.
Those that are hateful towards anyone or thing often cause their own demise. This fact I will revel in.

waitwaitwait how does this perspective drawing stuff work
Okay, fair warning: I just picked up this thing like a few hours ago, my hands are rattling, my muses are excited and I’m so glad I went to Krenz aka cushart’s little seminar where he spoke extensively (in a language I haven’t practiced in a long time. aka not english) about the importance of “grounding” a character in order to make them realistic and believable.
The seminar was great because I actually… didn’t understand any of the perspective tutorial that I’ve read off the internet before this? The seminar was basically like a missing link for me, so I hope that I can share that in this long post.
So be prepared for long post!
Based on the seminar, he said the biggest issue with character posture and design he has seen many people do is that it’s based on assumptions and conjectures. Most of us absorb posture, dynamism and foreshortening by looking at other people’s works and imitating/recreating them (myself also being a big offender in this). Basically, he’s saying that there should be a structured approach for you to get into posing a character in your art /while/ allowing you to blend the character into a background seamlessly. He used a chunk of Mandarin jargon that I’m unfortunately unfamiliar with, nor am I familiar with the phrases in english, so take my phrasing with a word of salt:
1) Find/make/use a 16-square box.
Boring, I know.
2) Stretch it to your liking to determine the most important plane your character will be interacting with.
I used this plane because it’s an extreme example of how the grid can be used. Here’s an example of a sketch I did earlier with the 16-square grid being utilised as a normal 45 degree floor plan:
Anyway, back to my blank example, the angle of the 16-square will be mainly determined by your camera angle! The one I did is for a wall. The grid is mainly there to help you project the shapes of the object you want to draw! To help illustrate things, here’s an example of a L-shaped sofa or whatever leaning against the “wall” of perspective grid:
The lecturer basically said that it’s the easiest to draw the character/pose/object out in a side-view first, so that you can identify the position of each of the prominent points when you translate it into the 3D/grid plane. His explanation was borderline mathlike and was going into the area of geometry, which I’m not very good at. But basically, it’s about finding out how much “space” each part of your drawn object can take up, much like drawing geometrical shapes in maths class!
3) Draw a side-view of the pose you want.
Top left you can see I scribbled out the side-view of a horrible excuse of a pose. The most important things you have to find out is the angles and planes of note from the pose. Mr. Krenz mentioned equating the notable planes as an unfolded surfaces of a cardboard box; you can tilt at certain points, but it has identifiable angles, which is important for you to determine the angles of your torso, legs, etc and helps solidify your perspective angles when you draw em.
For the pose I drew, the points of note are: the head is leaned towards the “wall”, and the hand goes straight down; but notice how the back is curved and the butt is not close to the wall. This is important.
You’ll also notice that I drew a horrible excuse of a box projected out of the four squares in the 16-square grid. This is the important part! There’s actually some maths shenanigans as to the proportion of the box and how it relates to your anatomy, but I think the safest way to go is to assume a box projected out of 4 squares is equivalent to a torso. so that box = the size of one torso. that means everything from above the hip in the pose should fit into the box.
Remember how I harped on the position of the butt and hands and the angles? This one is for the next step:
4) Draw in basic spheres and shapes. Ignore anatomy for now.
If you see each part of the body as shapes (spheres, squares, rectangles), it’s easier to plot them out in relation to the angle of the perspective grid. Over here, you can see that the shapes are drawn in correspondence with the perspectives. I won’t cover much on this part, mostly because there’s already a hundred other perspective-box-shaped-how-to-translate-to-human tutorials out there that explains it a great deal better than I do. The vital point to take out of this part is that you must plot according to the position of each key point– the back curve, the hand angle, etc onto the geometric shapes when drawn. The box should help you out in this I hope.
5) Finally! Fleshing it out!
Yep. This is also where anatomy fixing happens, if you see the need.
Notice how the angle of the lad’s mantle, vambraces, shin guards, etc corresponds to the geometric shapes scribbled out earlier. This step becomes immensely easier with practice, but basically the gist is that the geometry lines help you determine the direction of the clothes and stuff you have to flesh out.
6) Not necessary, but put in shadows and shading to help solidify the scene.
I thinned out the scribbles here and dabbed on a dark color to immediately portray that the kid’s hiding in the shadow of some doorway. See, immediately there’s a background! And he does look like he’s sitting there and no immediate worries of how the anatomy or angles of things out of place, because the 16-square has already determined it for you beforehand.
Conclusion!?
I think the important part is that personally, this is easier for me to get into instead of looking purely at theories of horizon lines, vanishing points, etc because honestly, it is very difficult to see those if you’re drawing character-oriented pieces. While this technique is not foolproof and is actually more complicated (read: there’s actual math shenanigans in it that i didn’t get into), I think this is a good starting point for artists of any level to start training their eye to see in order to make characters better blend into the backgrounds.
Hope this helped and sorry for the length!
Really damn helpful. Like, half the reason I dont draw more dynamic angles is because of having trouble with perspective. Definitely gonna give this a try
