I am a hobbyist artist, but I do like to do commissions when I can! I’ll probably mostly post my art on here, but I’ll probably end up engaging with a lot more.

  • Also important to note that it was aristocrats that started and perpetrated the war to begin with. They weren’t just opportunistically jumping in to get their piece, but were the cause of the conflict to begin with. They didn’t want to be beholden to the crown, when they could just make their own country that they could design from the ground up to be exploitable.

    The war was unpopular, attrition was high, and Washington was a blowhard. He killed more of his own soldiers than the British did. He was a drunkard and mediocre commander and only ended up winning because the French did most of the work for them.




  • They made up TDS because of how reactive they themselves are to the “culture war” nonsense that they’re shovel fed every day 25/7. If they can get so worked up about sexy M&Ms and Nascar banning the confederate flag, they have no position to criticize others for pointing out the blatantly terrible stuff their cult leader says and does.

    In other words, its effectively the same thing as their insistence that the election was stolen from them. They are so self absorbed and obsessive that they can’t imagine its possible without the other side cheating. Considering just about every actual case of voter fraud found was Republicans, it’s just more projection.

    Gaslight. Obstruct. Project.

  • Moron, imbecile, and dullard came out of eugenics IIRC. Does “lame” have that origin too?

    I’ve heard it used to refer to injured or weakened legs, as well as the creature they’re attached to. As in, “the cow was lame because of its injured hoof.” I’ve heard it used to refer to something that is boring or disappointing. “That movie was lame.” or “That was lame.”

    I wouldn’t doubt that there is some negative connotation for it though. Terrible people tend to take innocuous words and twist them to suit their schemes.

    I remember seeing an article somewhere about this. Effectively, there really bad diminishing returns with these game graphics. You could triple the detail, but there’s only so much that can fit on the screen, or in your eyes.

    And at the same time, they’re bloating many of these AAA games sizes with all manner of garbage too, while simultaneously cutting the corners of what is actually good about them.
