I was rereading the original run of The Avengers to keep boredom at bay, and yet again I'm impressed by John Buscema's artwork. I checked his wiki page and there's this passage in there:
"Buscema's passion for drawing was such that he continued to draw and sketch in his spare time, often on the back of comic book art pages, and these images form a considerable body of work in their own right. His brother Sal Buscema recalled,

This guy used to eat, sleep and breathe drawing. It didn't matter what was going on around him. He would get bored with it and start sketching. … He just couldn't stop drawing. [His back-of-board sketches were] better than some of the stuff that he did on the front. … He'd get a spark of inspiration and turn the page over and draw whatever was in his skull"

How nice it must be to have such passion and drive for something.

It wouldn't surprise me if most of the well-known Golden Age comic book artists were like that.

>>323908
I think even a lot of current artists are like that as well but current artwork feels so sanitized and toothless. This is Dan Mora's style, one of the guys everybody likes now. It's cute but there's just no grit at all. It's too lightweight, can't quite explain. It also appropriates too much of manga, which doesn't suit cape stuff well. This is all a matter of taste of course, but I'll always like the old guard better.

>>323907
Sound more like self-imposed slavery than a passion, at this point.

What can you wizzies tell me about bread? Is it bad for you? What about pasta made with brown rice flour? Tell me your opinion of flour.

>>323953
Don't take the breadpill. I used to be a wheatmaxxed flourchad until I found out what it does to your body (YOUR body, not mine because I'm indestructible). It makes you tired, it makes you sleepy, and it even makes you want to doze off. Don't believe me? Every single time you've eaten bread in your life, you felt the need to sleep within 18 hours afterwards. Baguettes online will try to tell you that the crust is the healthiest part of sandwich but that's moot considering the entire slice is made from a plant that literally grows out of dirt fertilized with animal shit. If humans were meant to eat bread we would have windmills for hands. Bread dries up in the sun, so just imagine what it does inside of you. It needs yeast in order to even become palatable and we all know where yeast comes from. It needs to be cooked in a toaster at 200 degrees before it's safe to spread peanut butter on. Ducks, literal bottom feeders, go nuts for bread. People who are drugged up are referred to as "baked" because eating bread has the same effect.

I'm gonna create an EOTW thread for this but holy shit, this video was recommended by the algorithm with the title "Parasites are eating your hobbies alive". Created in 2026.

I don't know if the creator is a millennial or older, or if he's a zoomer who's just realised something we've know since AT LEAST 2014 if not earlier but Goddamn, this is realising you've got cancer after it's reached a terminal stage.

I haven't even watched the video.

>breadpill. I used to be a wheatmaxxed flourchad
can you stop using normgroid words

>>323954
I stopped eating bread and pasta a year ago and some times I've tried coming back to have more food variety but I can't do it amymore because they're not real food and taste like nothing, you only notice when you've stopped eating that slop for some time. Spaghetti used to be my favorite food and last time I ate them some months ago I realized what I really liked was the carbonara sauce with the cheese and bacon, that's where the real food was.

I'll admit I still eat some junk food but at least that's tasty.

Why are you not making money on twitter/x?

>>323966
Poor social skills even online. My jokes and baits are shit.

>>323966
you need to pay for a premium subscription to be eligible for monetization. i do see a lot of randos get their tweets blessed by the algorithm and suddenly explode, but you have be a paypiggy to cash in. i guess that's good since it filters third-worlders, but also neeties like me without much disposable income.

>>323975
you don't need social skills, just interact with other people's tweets and give your honest takes. a lot of stuff that pops off is just opinions that people had on 4chan 5 years ago. there's also a lot of ragebait and annoying engagement hacks but the twitter algo is very interesting and you could organically get followers and views just by posting normally.

last time i got a haircut was in december 2024

>>324050
That's not a long time for a man.

>>324054
really?
the succubus cut it very short back then and now it's pretty long
well, probably medium short by succubi standards, but it still seems pretty long to me for a man, reaching my collarbones

do you also go very long without getting haircuts?

>>324050
Do you let it grow because you like it that way or you just don't like going to the hairdresser? When I was younger I let it grow for the latter reason and it was so uncomfortable, nowadays I just cut it myself so I get no BS and also save extra money. I also noticed other reclusive type of guys also let it grow so I assume they do it for similar reasons.

>>324057
i hate going to a hairdresser so i would just get it cut once a year or so
after it would get too long and annoying i'd ask for it to be as short as possible
i really disliked last time's interaction, so i'd much rather keep looking like a hobo than be forced to make small talk with a succ for 20-30 min
"oh, you're cutting all your hair? this next year will be full of new transformations for you!"
oh my fucking god
anyway, yeah, i'm planning to do like you and cut it myself

>>324058
nta but I'm also just buzz cutting it at this point. To be fair I've started doing it due to my receding hairline because I figured I was wasting money getting haircuts that never look all that good due to the missing hair. But even though I trim my hair twice a week it's still much cheaper and convenient than going to a barber. I also like how it feels and that I no longer have to entertain thoughts about whether my hair looks too unkempt to go outside on a particular day or not.

I am watching street walking videos for stimulation like those videos of birds and squirrels people show their cats.

The government gave me another $2,000 of the like $6,000 they said they would. I am going to buy Doritos, alcoholic soda, and a dakimakura cover

Animepahe downloader didn't have one title as it's not on Animepahe. Anikai.to is gone. Miruro has it, but download link for that particular title doesn't work. 1DM Lite downloaded it, but it didn't open. Could've tried to download in bigger resolution and see what if, instead installed Video DownloadHelper extension on Supermium. It downloaded 3 eps and then said there's a limit, wait for 2 hours or pay. VPN didn't help. So I installed the same extension on r3dfox. And it worked.

Get a rice cooker, the "smart" variant. And some cheap tupperware.

Make it cook rice, pour some soy sauce in, yum yum tasty carbs

>>324199
Rice and soy sauce taste awful and are really poor for the health. At least corn chips and vodka root bees taste good.

>>324188
magnet links are so convenient

>>324199
Why, cooking rice is easy why do you need teflon coated crap to cook it

Made my second comment on Viber chat of one TV channel and the host read it aloud. Thought he'd say name and first letter of a surname like sometimes, though now I remember that it wasn't always a case. I used my father's second phone so his name was used. I knew that phone number, e-mail, full name and city won't be mentioned. YouTube creators responding and liking my comments, one literally mentally ill person posting blogs using a few phrases I added to Wikipedia (I think I even undid his edits), now this. Though the mentally ill man doesn't mention my nickname or surname, just the phrase in his hyoergraphia diarrhea of the same shit all over again.

The TV host botched some lines, though he recovered and agreed that compulsory exams in Maths constitutes a form of violence (it's not the only idea of my post, he read everything). I saw it twice on live stream on YouTube too and it's not a local channel. I hid that chat (my posts without talking to anyone, just replies on topic) by a password
For now, I won't remove it from the list of chats. New achievement unlocked. Not that life's worth living, but a nice bonus.

I could download from SoulSeek but files there had episode titles in the name. Now I know about spoilers to two series that way. They were in alphabetical order too (e.g., 1, 10, 11, 2, 3). Should be 01, … 10 or 001, … 010, … 100, etc. Depending on the number of episodes to avoid disorder that can also lead to potential spoilers.

I could've write to change it for other users there but they could respond with spoilers as an attack against me. Also the more anonymity without any repercussions, the worser the behaviour. In the end, I was proven right in another case there. I could've make a video to warn others in general about spoilers problem, but giving more attention would mean more popularity and then more troubles for P2Ps like how once a pirate streaming anime site gets too popular, it gets shut down. And other alternatives may have worse functionality or you have to waste more time to find what fits you. Let alone the fact that nobody would watch the video and I would waste time to figure out how to do it on the necessary level with artificial voice, video imagery, necessary tags. Certain gatekeeping may help in this fight for access to information.

Torrents for single episodes with hardsubs were dead. Torrents for the whole title were not with hardsubs. Some subs don't reduce in size after decreasing the frame, others are not visible in the screenshots despite all the settings changed in the player as needed, others have translated signs hanging in the air as in full screen despite the frame being decreased and moved up and to the left. Their location don't change and sometimes it's even hard to notice that it's actually exist. And for one dubbed series (historical exception, I watch mostly with subs), I found a substitute on one site, but the damage had already been done.

And some available torrents were too big in file size. My old laptop could have problems with playing it. Although that also depends on the content and codec. But then screenshots would also weigh much more. And I would have to use my 1 Tb external drive and that would be troublesome as my USB works for gadgets, mouse and keyboard, but not for transferring data through external drives. That would mean uploading files to the cloud, going to my father's PC, downloading it from the cloud and then adding it to the external drive, rather than putting it right into the external drive on my laptop as such would be impossible there. I tried to fix it, but it's not software issues. And my storage is constantly decreasing. Bigger screenshots would decrease it more. Free clouds are almost full and having it only there is irresponsible as data can be lost. Well, maybe lesser so on reliable sites like Google Drive, but it would require paying. And still if I'm hacked or someone took my device, the data could be lost. I could use applock but again — paying when NEET or other money difficulties where each coin is sacred. Using Telegram for storage — trusting as only source is not an option regardless of a platform. I already have things digitally, on the hard drive and some things burnt to CD's/DVD's. Doing extra steps is a lot of pain in the ass and/or finances that I don't have enough in case my laptop, tablet, more health breaks. Decreasing the amount of screenshots, videos, rar music archives is a step in the right direction and having files not too big and not small is a part of not making it harder. And some cloud services give free options with a stipulation that they would delete your files if you don't login in a set time period.

>found a substitute on one site, but the damage had already been done
I meant harm from spoilers. It's in the first paragraph and thus may be hard to understand when the third paragraph is about other things.

cute!

I wonder about the level of perviness of those people who back then used photoshop to do fakecum edits of female celebrities or who tried to get them naked with edits by cutting their heads and putting them in bodies that didn't even physically matched
I remember thinking it was weird even when I discovered hentai, like what could one possibly gain from uploading silly obvious edits
those motherfuckers must be in their 40s or 50s and seeing what AI can do they must feel like in the future but it must suck for them cause they don't have the testosterone to enjoy it

I wonder about the average age of the nsfw AI content "creators"

>I wonder about the average age of the nsfw AI content "creators"
I've never considered it before, but I guess the accessibility of AI generation must make for a lot of underageb&s pumping out hardcore pron. Conventional hentai artists typically need to practice for years and develop a sense of the succubus figure before they can output fappable pr0nz. Kids these days can pose free anime succubus models in free Blender and import those renders in to free AI generator to get any sort of sick twisted ecchi handholding images their horny little imaginations can conjure.

There's a sense of domination to it. As a kid, the success of my boners were determined by the coordination of several adults… The Japanese hentai artist, the Japanese publisher and bookbinders, the Japanese pirate who scanned it in and uploaded it, and the Wapanese pirate who brought it over to a Western website… I felt like a crab at the bottom of the ocean feasting on the few crumbs of chum that manage to float down from the feasting killer whales above. Now with kids doing the generating, bots scraping their art to put on boorus, and my AdBlock blocking all the dumb shit I don't want to see… I feel as though I am the king, with a team of lowly peasant child slaves serving me juicy AI hentai while I sit on my throne. I am the killer whale afloat with my mouth agape while plump penguins are tossed down my gullet.
