its so awkward when people ask me why i dropped out and i have to be like "inadequate disability support" bc no one wants to hear this. they're always like i thought they had to provide that though isn't it the law? girl you might want to sit down i have some bad news about the litigation-based enforcement of the americans with disabilities act
then if i do say that theyre like, couldnt you sue? well theoretically maybe but not without spending more money than i have and putting myself through absolute hell. so no. no i can't.
This is a great take and I would like to adopt “Feelings Yakuza” in English actually, I feel like it conveys the whole thing way more obviously than “anti” (not to mention the muddled meaning of “proshipper”).
To avoid harassment, EA and SEA artists have started pre-emptively blocking users with "proship DNI" or any variation thereof in their profiles as a result of this article and said feelings yakuza are getting pissed that their DNIs are being hard enforced by the other side. How very dare.
I’m screaming with laughter at the actual Japanese term, o-kimochi yakuza. The “o” is an honorific indicator to indicate how prissy and self-important these people are being.
One of the best parts of reading Batman and The Signal was the banter between Duke and Jason based on their districts in Gotham. And I think it would be hilarious if we saw more of that.
Duke: Why are you slowing down? It’s straight on.
Jason: I’m trying to figure out if this is the turn or if these co-ordinates are off.
Duke: It’s literally down there. Look, big sign. Can your Crime Alley ass not read?
Jason: At least we can read the street signs.
Duke: You don’t have street signs. You have arrows spray‑painted on trash cans.
Jason: Better than the Narrows. You get lost and you fucking pray Killer Croc jumps up from the sewers and fucking eats you just so you don't have to spend another second on those streets.
Duke: At least we have streets. Crime Alley is just a string potholes holding hands and one burning trashcan.
Bruce, over comms: Signal, Red Hood, table your conversation or you can get your asses back to the Cave.
Steph, over comms: Get a load of this Crest Hill bitch.
Jason: Stand your HOA ass stand down, Spoiler. Widow Creek isn't that great.
Steph: At least we have running water and flushing toilet, Park Row bitch. And before you even start Drake, your Bristol ass is on thin ice.
Tim, not even working that night: The fuck did I do??
Headcanon that when someone gets injured during a fight, (the clearly underaged) Robin at the time sometimes run into the nearest convenience store and buys vodka to clean the wound~
Imagine.......When Dick is Robin, he gets into a fight with a group of gangsters, and a civilian gets injured. Panicking, Dick runs into the nearest convenience store, looking for something to clean the wound with. Naturally, the workers are very confused as to why a little boy in a brightly coloured costume is attempting to buy a bottle of vodka. They eventually sell it to him on the grounds of "Batman would probably beat us into a pulp if we said no."
Over the years, this happens several more times, even continuing whenever there's a new Robin. Convenience store workers in Gotham have gotten so used to brightly coloured children coming in and purchasing alcohol that when a new person starts working at one of the stores, no one even thinks to explain what the hell is going on.
---
Store Manager: —and last but not least, remember to ask for an ID before selling alcohol to anyone who might be underage.
New Employee: understood.
Robin: *enters, in full costume and covered in blood. walks to the back on the store, before returning and placing a bottle of vodka on the counter with a thud*
Store Manager: *immediately begins ringing him up*
Store Manager, smiling: that'll be $20.
Robin: *hands over the money and leaves with his bottle of vodka*
New Employee: ...
New Employee: ......
New Employee: ........that was a child. That was a child in a Halloween costume. You just sold alcohol to a child in a Halloween costume.
Store Manager: oh yeah, that's Robin. We don't actually know how old he is.
Jon: I think it got to the point where I had to introduce Damian as my boyfriend to my friends.
Kon: Oh, why do you think that? You told me that you two had decided to tell them little by little.
Jon: Well... judging by the gifts he's been giving me, like delivering flowers to my work at least every week, new clothes, fancy watches, trying to give me a new cell phone after seeing the cracked screen protector on mine... My friends are convinced I'm dating an old man and he's my sugar daddy!
Kon: Oh! It's a really complicated situation, but... that would only solve one of those problems, Jon.
Jon: What do you mean?
*Kon answers a call*
Bart: Hey, Tim's boy toy—
*Kon hangs up*
Jon: ...
Kon: ...
Jon: ...
Kon: At least they'll know you're not dating an old man.
If you're ever worried about whether your writing is too self indulgent, I just want you to remember that Sharknado had 5 sequels. I'm only partway through watching Sharknado 6: It's About Time, but already they've traveled through time and ridden a pteronadon into a Sharknado so they could use the magic teleportation portal inside of it to travel forward in time to King Arthur's time, where they are currently battling a Sharknado full of fire-breathing dragon sharks with Excalibur, which is a chainsaw sword that calls lightning. You're fine. In fact, be a little more self indulgent if anything.
Theres this thing that happens with a few too many franchises, where the constant need to one-up and raise stakes makes each entry slightly more unhinged than the last. Until you reach a point where what started as a fairly simple/grounded concept has become completely ridiculous(see Dragonball, Fast and Furious).
Sharknado is what happens when you have that tendency of escalation, but your starting premise is 'a tornado full of sharks'
You drink poison almost die, a potion appears on your chest, your sword and shield somehow come to you, you're dying, your druid finally snaps out of it and removes the poison, you get rocked by would be assassins as a magical shield envelops you, suddenly a woman with the biggest rack you've ever seen appears out of nowhere and stabs one of the assassins in front of you.
How do you glitter-ify an image? (Like what you did with the Centaurworld autism creature)
@hat-stack
YAY!!! I’VE BEEN WAITING TO TALK ABOUT THOSE GIF FOR AGES! Thank you so much for the ask!
(here are some examples of some glitter stuff I did)
First of all, I really think that knowledge is the best thing ever, so I am going to tech how to make those gifs in this post. BUT! If you don’t have the time or just don’t want to, my requests are open for glittering images. Without no further ado, let’s start!
TUTORIAL
In this post we will go through the steps of making this gif:
First thing you’ll need is the starting image. The best starting images are one with LOW TO NO COMPRESSION and flat colors (I know I used pixel art for this exemple, but glittering pixel art is hell, I only did it because the image was extremely clean).
Once you have your starting point, you need to find glitter images. Just go on google and search “X-color glitter”. Then chose the shade of glitter that best matche your reference and save them, the shade doesn’t need to be perfect, we can edit it slightly once in the editing program.
Some glitter finding tips for better end result:
1) Avoid images with gradients
2) Avoid images where the glitter is in perspective or have any variation in size
Now that we have all the images that we need, we can go on to IbisPaint (or any other app or software that has clipping layers). Then, with the wand tool or the select by color tool, cut the parts that will turn into glitter in separate layers
Import your glitter images and fill the entire canvas with them, them clip them to the part
repeat for all colors
If you wnat stars:
Import the stars that you want. The amount you want in your gif can be different from mine, but have in mind that the image you import needs to have 4 times the number of stars than the amount of them you want per frame
LETS START EXPORTING OUR FRAMES!!
FIRST FRAME
For the stars: Duplicate the layer. Hide one of them and in the other delete 3/4 of all of the stars
For the glitter: Nothing for now
Export
SECOND FRAME
For the stars: Invert the color of the stars from the previous frame to use them as a guide to not repeat any of the stars.
Then duplicate the origional layer, and delete 3/4 of all of the stars again, but make sure to delete the ones you marked in your guide
For the glitter: Flip all glitter layers horizontally
Export
THIRD FRAME
For the stars: Invert the color of the stars from the second frame and merge them in your guide layer. Repeat the last step
For the glitter: Flip all glitter layers vertically
Export
THIRD FRAME
For the stars: Delete all the stars that arent in the guide from the origional
For the glitter: Flip all glitter layers horizontally
Export
Here is the result I got
The FINAL STEP is assembling the gif in this site, import the images, and here are the settings I use:
how to make a glitter gif like the early 2000s! (a tutorial!)
Want to make cool glitter gifs like these??
Now you can!! (Pretty easily, too!)
Step 1:
Get yourself the image you want to use! The image should have a transparent background, but if it doesn't just use this super helpful website: https://www.remove.bg/
Step 2:
Take your image and put it over a solid background color! The background color you use should NOT be present in your image!
Step 3:
Open this website and upload your image: https://www.online-image-editor.com/
Step 4:
Now that you're in the editor, click on the "Animation" tab and you should find the "Add Glitters" option!
Step 5:
From there, you can mess around with the glitters until you're happy with your result! (To apply glitter, click on the glitter you want, and then on the part of the image you want to apply it to!) Once you are done, click the "Save" icon on the left, under the "Upload New Photo" button. This is what I ended up with!
Step 6:
Now you could leave it here if you wanted to, but I want to make this transparent so I'll upload my image to this website: https://ezgif.com/remove-background (note: this may take a minute or two to upload, refreshing can help this process!)
Step 7:
Now that your image is uploaded, scroll down until you see the options for removing the background. Now this part can be very confusing, but you want to make sure you don't mess with anything and only check/select the options: "custom (HEX)" and "Transparent background".
Step 8:
Now that you have those options enabled, scroll down a bit and click the "Submit" button! Your image should appear below the "Submit" button, and if you scroll down some more you can download the finished piece by clicking the "Save" icon.
Finished!!
Now you can enjoy making glittery gifs!!
