The General Comments Thread

have you ever felt like saying something that didn't quite fit the positivity or complaints/vent boards? look no further! this is the board for that.

some base rules:

  • in general, use general common sense and decency when posting here.
  • use general common sense when it comes to naming or vagueing others, especially if they're also on toyhou.se and/or otherwise likely to see your message (yes, even if they're blocked).
  • this is not the place for discourse and/or heated or otherwise unfriendly discussion, especially not about particularly serious or controversial topics. please take that somewhere else. regular discussion is perfectly fine! use your best judgement here.
  • if posting explicit and/or heavy content, spoiler and appropriately warn for it! this means either put it in a spoiler box or change both the text and background to the same colour (like this).
  • keep this thread pg-13. it's accessible and used by both minors and adults, so don't post anything you wouldn't be comfortable with anybody in this age range seeing. here is the 18+ counterpart of this board.
  • don't forget to drink some water and get up or stretch for a bit if you haven't recently ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
  • if you don't like the way this board is working or have any suggestions, feel free to shoot me a message!
  • breaking the rules will recieve a comment/PM warning from me. if it happens a third time, you will get banned from this board.
    • bans have yet to happen in the 6 years this thread has been up. let's keep it that way!

please note I have this thread muted due to not having the time to check every single message. I do check occasionally, but if you see anyone breaking the rules, please PM me and I will deal with it accordingly. thanks!

I accidentally clicked the announcements forum instead of G&OT and damn, there really isn't much going on. It was a bit weird to see bursts of activity and then none for months. Strange

Thinking about possibly giving my OCs face claims. 🤔
I was thinking about Matsui (particularly his 2.5D actor, Sasamori Hiroki, and his photos from Kotobuki Ranbu Ongyokusai(? I believe?) like this one bc I can't get over how pretty he looks here(!!!)) as well as GBF's official cosplayers during GBFes and thought: "if my OCs were to ever be adapted into 2.5D, I think that'd be pretty cool." So now I'm wondering if I want to spend my time looking at actors/ models as potential face claims.

I almost forgot that I’m currently reading Dungeon Meshi and was able to obtain the third volume yesterday! …because it was pretty hard to find on most bookstores orz

I’m intrigued by its worldbuilding and how it takes certain fantasy monsters and twist them into something unique, like how the mimics in the Dungeon Meshi universe are like crustaceans that uses boxes and chests as shells rather than just some chests that happen to have teeth inside :)

Actually, speaking of worldbuilding, I‘ve thought of a silly idea for my science fantasy world while I was staying at a hotel: magical teen tabloids and magazines. And there’ll be one character that’s obsessed with reading them. XD

> spends several hours trying to stick the palette exactly where I want it
> first idea doesn't work at all
> get second idea (looks better also)
> spends another several hours trying to get it to look the way I want
> no luck
> find way to brute force it
> ...ok

I might come back to that later but (×_×;)it should display fine on laptop/desktop screens but mobile users don't get to see the palette for now I guess. actually I might be able to stick it where I wanted for the first idea for mobile users...... that is a problem for future me however

edit to avoid double posting: augh I want to start filling out oc profiles already but I also >_> want to wait until I'm 100% done with the code lest I start having to edit them all individually later (again). ue ue ue

Someone on Roblox free draw was copying what I was drawing. I find it really cute, they weren't tracing or anything. Kinda bummed they gave up and left.

My fav artist considers me a friend and I'm happy about that :D

Two of the best faces I've drawn without any references:

Apparently, I can draw long-snouted non-mammalian faces without references. //I wanted to post this in the Creator's Corner but there are no threads that I know of for non-daily artwork or similar and I drew the first one about a few weeks ago and the second one yesterday.//

Tiktok is full of the most brain dead people I'm sorry. is anyone in the comment section able to count to 3? I hate when they're a really interesting video and everyone comments bs.

I wish YouTube shorts was working better, the comments there are more my type. But the algorithm is not working once again and I don't need see same 4 videos recommended to me in an endless loop combined with stuff that's not my cup of tea.

well away, tomorrow is hopefully a better day. today was rough. excited to finish that one commission up too :)

I am such a nosy bitch. I have been refreshing my cousin's wife's feed to see when she will post pics from his other cousin's wedding to see if she is pregnant or not. 

Why do I have this weird obsession? Probably because my aunt (his mother) hates me for being born four months before him and getting married three days before him (its a long story involving my dad) and knowing my luck, I am going to have the first great-grandkid by weeks too. 😩


Also, I want to know if my aunt is still fueding with her eldest sister or not. Lol. It has been two years since her sister's husband called their mother out for being ungrateful (while living with them) and "Granny Goose" insisting they divorce and I am sooo damn nosy if that meant the girls were invited or not. 😭 No one on that side was invited to her eldest niece's 2nd wedding. So did we continue the petty or did the cousins make up despite the matriarches being massive babies?

(Also don't get me started on the drama with the oldest niece's weddingssss That is another fun story.)

I think I just need to go back to watching reality tv, maybe.... But this is free and local.
