Um ok I would suggest removing the underwear in the second image but honestly I don’t know anything about being a sailor or life in a ship

Ok bro totally valid topic but not in this community. Try !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !casualconversation@lemmy.world

Reality as an artist dictates that all my work was datamined without my consent and anything I post in the future, should I choose to do so, will. And the end result of this data mining is to drive artists like me out of business. I don’t mind the average Joe getting their anime girl with three titties in five minutes, but company owners are making money out of this and paying nobody for their source material.

Depends on how many balls fit in the glass, and whether you can see through the balls- if not, as long as all the balls against the glass surface and on top are blue, with a few more blue visible within the gaps should be enough. But what percentage that is could change according to ball size in relation to glass size.

Scented candles? Relatively affordable, easy to re gift if they don’t like it

I feel weird the pope is saying something that resonates with me… Stop

If it did get dirty I would have to try it. As it is though, not interested, and slightly put off.

I’m still on Baldurs Gate 3 and loving it

Shame you’ve already blasted music and you are pretty certain he’s feeling it. I would have slipped a note under his door asking him to at least get a mat or something to cushion the weights falling

When they get withdrawals, even if mild. Some people get a bit cranky if they don’t get their daily fix (and yes, it has to be a daily habit). That’s evidence for me of an unhealthy dependence.

Of course, if they always have alcohol available it’s going to be difficult to see the withdrawal and it’s also difficult to draw the line because not all people tolerate it in the same way.

Okay the key here is what you mean by “constantly”. Telling a story about something so life changing once a year hardly goes as “constantly” in my books.

What may come across as manipulative is you mentioning she’s trying to get you to do as she says or trying to get guilt or compassion from you. And this with a pinch of salt, because it’s very hard to tell from what you share here. I would have to become a fly on your wall for a long time to have my own opinion about it.

You tell me she’s telling you this every week and making reference to it every day, several times a day, and now that’s what I consider “constantly”. That she hardly has anything else to share about her past or that she somehow finds a way to spin everything to a framework of scarred pregnancy mother, or similar.

My own mother has told me about her pregnancies several times a year, I heard her stories so many times. Hundreds. Yet that was never the only story she had, and it was always brought up more or less naturally in conversation. The same happened with several other favorite anecdotes of her own past and me and my sister’s childhood. I would consider this aspect to be normal.

I never felt manipulated by her retelling of a story though. And I know she could manipulate pretty well. She also had a few topics she would constantly harass me about, yes, daily or nearly to a point. But retelling the past was not part of it, even though she did frequently.

My, it almost feels as if training data should be paid for and not taken for free

I’m here to say Jasmine /Jazmín in English and Spanish, because I haven’t seen it mentioned yet

Lol

Hello. Lemmy is known for having a tech savvy userbase, not so much dabblers in the occult arts. Please don’t let that dissuade you - I would be searching for a community with an occult bent first. Try any of the find-a-community communities and see where people point you towards.

Having said that, yes I do like the occults even though I can’t say I take them seriously like I did in my youth. Traditionally the suit you would be looking for is the swords for the sciences, since the swords are associated with the domain of the mind, judgement, truth, thoughts, etc.

Edit: try !findacommunity@lemmy.ml

… not sure if there are other community finders outside of .ml but that should get you started

Yep, that’s me whenever seeing “Salsa sauce” in the mexican or sauces section in supermarkets

Good luck with everything!

Last week I visited a house overlooking the Georges River, Sydney south. Leafy area. The owners of the house told me they leave the back door open for the cat at night. That’s not a cat flap, that’s a freaking door open.

Setting aside the free ranging cat especially at night - it’s an open door. Anything can just waltz in if they want to. Anything from mozzies to people. And near the water in a leafy area everything is extra here. More bugs. More reptiles. Rats. Possums.

So, yeah. A window with no screens. I believe it. I’ve seen worse

I think that’s it, you’ve found it, it’s Shuma-Gorath. It’s really close chronologically, it’s in a very popular publication, and also in the oldest depictions I could find it also sports something like the “chitinous plates” the beholder description has. According to Wikipedia too, Shuma was/is one of the most popular kaiju-type villains in Marvel. It also says Shuma can levitate and shoot rays off his eye and tentacles.

Eyeballs on tentacles/eyestalks were much more popular back in the day than now, especially for alien or extraterrestrial designs. So there isn’t a huge leap from Shuma gorath to Beholder.

I was hoping for more sci fi or fantasy fans to crop up and point at other characters from 60’s or earlier novels, however, no luck so far. Someone pointed a beholder wouldn’t look out of place in a Lovecraft story and I agree but yours was the only concrete example so, congrats, enjoy your trophy!

There is plenty of similar, I also recall a Powerpuff girls episode with something like a beholder, also in the 90s I think. No infringement either, because it wasn’t exactly a beholder nor it was called a beholder.

That Pixar movie did use a proper beholder though.

Anyway… They’re all after 1975 so…
