He's allowed to draw whatever the fuck he wants for however long he wants. It's his art. If you think someone is stagnant? DON'T FUCKING SAY ANYTHING. It's not your place to. Some artists want to keep improving, and some just want to do whatever and draw what makes them happy. If you think an artist should change their approach to art just for you, what the hell?

All these bullshit comments calling the work garbage is completely uncalled for. The only valid criticism I have seen is on the typography, which doesn't convey information effectively.

What kind of retarded comment is this? "Hurr durr no color = garbage art." What an ignorant and meaningless thing to say.

You know, not just stuff that's technically in the genre, but the really scary stuff that has you sleeping with the light on.

Personally, I think H.P. Lovecraft's The Lurking Fear was horrifying. I'm a fan of Dagon as well, but that's more creepy than scary.

Seen a lot of folks talking about House of Leaves, but apparently that translates poorly into ebook format. Alas.

i want to hold your hands

Not exactly my type of song, but it's pretty fun with a good tempo, nice driving music.

I love this thread! I had no idea there were so many artists here (though I recognize a few).

2:16 AM - SogeKingPrime: I want to say something but I'm a bit scared
2:16 AM - SogeKingPrime: of what I might say might impact him to take action or not
2:16 AM - SogeKingPrime: you always have good thinking and know what to say so pls help
2:18 AM - Renhet: I have dealt with/been dealing with depression. It's hard for someone outside that specific person's mind to say something that will really help that person. Depression also affects different people differently, so it's similarly hard to apply your own experiences to someone else's. In truth, I don't think there's a lot to say that he will find meaningful unless someone can have a heart-to-heart with him to get it all out and see his entire view, because as it is you can't offer anything more personal than what he is tired of hearing: "I'm here for you"
2:19 AM - SogeKingPrime: you should post that o;

I don't think people being incapable of providing the help you need means they care less for you than you would like. I just think it's hard for people to respond properly to something they can't physically see or experience for themselves just the way you do. I have no insight into your personal life from your post really, but I would want to argue that people absolutely care about you and WANT to help, they're just as lost as you are. My dad still denies that depression even exists, but that isn't because he doesn't love me or doesn't want me to be happy, he just doesn't "get it."

I've thought about suicide before. I decided that it wouldn't solve anything. I wouldn't be happier than I was or am, just dead. And what does that do for anybody? There's too many things I want to do, and probably too many things that you want to do, to throw away the only chance you've got.

I'm not trying to give you the same patronizing shit, I'm not trying to say there's any excuse or easy road to getting better; there isn't. I think I'm just trying to say that, to a degree, I understand a bit of what you may be feeling. Working through or around depression is tough, but it is absolutely worth it.

If drugs are not working for you, have you tried any (perhaps major) changes in lifestyle?

Here is the source of the art used in the splash image for the article. Apparently nobody asked permission from the artist, ExMachina, before editing and using her artwork.

i feel like i should also say that it's primarily the male audience's fault that she is successful. i guess you can blame successful female streamers for being female if you want to be intolerant for no real reason, but you have to actually stop to consider who decided to watch and support them to begin with.

arent there male streamers who play shirtless on cam sometimes idk what the big deal is i guess

i still don't see what there is to be upset over, unless you just really don't like strangers taking advantage of something relatively harmless to make pocket change. i'm not even bothered that she might be contributing to the stereotypically bad image female gamers have. i'm happy that she is getting paid to make people upset for no high-impact reason.

of course it's an act. if you could make money by having fun, making strangers unreasonably upset and acting stupid, wouldn't you do it? if that isn't the stream dream then idk what is.

take a breather, watch the video again in like 10 minutes and tell me that you still think she is being serious

edit: idk why this was near the top of the boards for me, but i sure didnt fuckin check the post date
sorry, tomodachi
