For me it started happening when I changed my avatar from thumb drives on a paper plate to just my face. Not ure if that's a branding thing or what. As far as assholism, trust me I'll let you know if you're being one. And I probably wouldn't use words so rude, uneducated, and not constructive in t…

I mean I wont state their name, but can you imagine if artists that trashed me once I showed my face were premium? If they trashed me like they did on discord, I wouldn't want to give them money. I already have to deal with that kind of immaturity on Twitter. I'm just not here for that.

Yes, yes, many times yes. And the people that do it come off as really unprofessional. I've gotten it when I've being nice. Which is most of the time. Eh, sometimes just being honest are not self censoring is assholish to some. So used to goblinrefuge.

Yes it seems a lot easier even to get views here.

Oh Elfen Lied of course.

I think a lot of my issue was I used to compromise to much. Although I'm still willing to compromise to some degree. I'll see if I can find a friend first then. I just don't know anybody who does art.:confused: Or at least only a certain kind of art. (Not comics.)

Is it better to find a friend to collaborate with or make collaboration requests? I mean I'm kind of in a tricky situation as I'm more of a portrait or charcoal artist when I do art. I can kind of draw people, but really I'm mainly a poet and short story writer. In such a situation, would it just…

On second thought, maybe this should be it own thread. * Snip

No no Goth, but there is Cybergoth. Which is kind of ripped from Cyberpunk.:stuck_out_tongue:

So to clarify, the Incubator is for premium authors? I'm just not wanting to misunderstand.

Yea, it's interesting how they diverged. It's also interesting how Goth started out as a branch off from Punk, before becoming its own thing. It makes it weird, as while I hung out with punks and metalheads, I felt more at home with Computer people. Go figure I guess. Never found music that's mo…

That looks like the original Punk rock era. Just after Ramones.

What's your best earworm you found you listen to while you write or draw? I found this:

Outside of culture, the cultureless.

Note, that's not because I like the song. I just can't get the song out of my head. There is such a thing as to catchy it's almost cutesy.

Loving and insane? I love the contrdiction here. Interesting.

Use Focuswriter, it's great for concentration, and doesn't require the internet like cloud services do. It counts words, pages, lines, and characters. (If you ever submit poetry, they pay by the line.)

Rana wears cat eye glasses, a pair of Boston Clogs, and a pair of sweat pants. With mirror shades, she writes basic cryptographic programs, and messes around with w3m web browser. She dreams of becoming a children's writer, but finds scarcely any time for herself. Spaz is a painter into tap dancer…

When I can find other chat rooms where people are less likely to assume subscribers are everything, and I'm forced to self-censor, because apparently--even if politics is what I write about--I can't even remotely discuss it. It's kind of like living in Canada, and getting a taste for The Kremlin h…

Tumblr seems to have a very simplified black vs. white (with no shades of grey) view of real world events at times at best, misleading, or even outright deceptive about LGBT stuff. I don't understand how my ex room mate can stand it. Yet even then, at least Tumblr doesn't try to shove Stephen U…

It depends on how we're defining manga style. I draw something in between realistic and manga style. Or more specifically, somewhere between realistic and moe. However I can't draw men for the life of me.

More like: Oh it's seven A.M. I have idea, lets hot it down. Oh wait, it's 3:00 A.M. I had a weird terrifying dream, lets jot it down. Lets get locked out of the apartment because we forgot our keys! Lets jot it down. My schedule is very irregular.

At the moment mainly editing for shorter chapters. Also working on a new book, possible part two, slowly but surely. (I write a lot slower these days.)

Short answer: Not snotty elitist people who think seven subscribers is chump change. Longer answer: Techies interesting in exploring a more contemporary setting their your traditional far flung local in science fiction. Using with a background in Ruby language, sneaker net, and UnWeb development…

Get 15 consistent subscribers. Harder than you might think.

Reworking some stories. Working on a new fiction/non-fiction hybrid.

Tapas should update its forum layout in general. Also impossible to use on w3m.

No opinion personally.

Diaspora is older and hesitant to recommend. A lot of blatant ... well you know. Mastodon is great though. It's like Twitter without the crazies. And one can start up and host their own instance as well, just lot a lot of the other decentralized social-verse. Socialhub (or whatever it's called) do…

For Diaspora and Mastodon, try to talk about other things besides your work, and keep tabs on the local lingo. Much of these users are fleeing Facebook and Twitter because they're tired of censorship, so posting writing tips and stuff isn't going to get you fans. Drawbacks to consider: Diaspora an…
