As a pansexual, it can often feel like I’m getting shit on from all sides; transphobes because I date trans people, homophobes because I like kissing other guys, and most distressing of all from the queer community who can have a problem with biphobia (because I have straight-passing privilege, I assume).

There’s also a LOT more women who are unwilling to date men who date men/trans people than there are men who refuse to date women who’ve been with women, for example. I assume this is due in part to bisexual/lesbian women being sexualized for the mainstream, and also because lesbian relationships are seen as “less serious” than M/F or M/M relationships. A woman who sleeps with women might be seen as “going through a phase” or “playing around”, but a guy who sleeps with guys is often seen as irrevocably tainted by homosexuality.

The face looks proportional and I really like the shading of the cheeks as it gives the face a lot more depth! The left side of the hair looks good; I like how it’s colored darker than the closer right side, again it helps with perspective. The right side looks off to me for some reason, but I can’t quite put my finger on it, sorry. It looks like you’re still working on your linework, and I don’t have much useful advice there; it’s something I struggle with too.

I believe this troll is referring to the transexual and bisexual pride flags on OP’s banner. Best not to engage further.

Very true, I forgot about the doorbell cameras! Neighbors on FB will often post their camera footage when a “suspicious” (read: black or young) person drives by

I feel the more likely scenario is for public surveillance to reach a point where everyone outside their home (or near a window) is being recorded from multiple sources.

Just started my first playthrough recently, should be exciting to have even more stuff to discover!

Seconding this; Cruelty Squad is hitting that Deus Ex/Quake itch for me right now

Thank you for sharing your experience. Reading the replies it seems like most of us have experienced similar from Reddit, and I agree with ArtZuron’s comment “the more public an online space becomes […] [t]he loudest most obnoxious people ruin it”. I’m reminded of Alyaza’s post of how unchecked toxicity can rapidly poison a userbase and drive away positive interaction. MayonnaiseArch sums it up better than I can: “being abused and gaslit and molested in any single interaction really makes you act in a different way, you can’t be honest or open in that kind of environment”

If they banned us you’d have to get rid of your top half, and you don’t want to make an ass of yourself :3

Squawk!

I don’t think there is anything they can do to get me back anymore. I have a lot of issues with the culture that exists on that site, and that’s not something that can be fixed by walking back the API stuff or removing a few problematic individuals.

I personally migrated because I wanted to avoid the majority
