...regardless. Fucking tittle limits.
Recently, I found on Cracked that a card game depicting overly-sexualized nazis, re-imagining world war 2 in the most absurdly offensive manner possible got backed up in Kickstarter within a few hours. It then comes into my mind when a year ago, another card game dipicting tentacle porn ALSO got kickstarted. AND I also remember the shitstorm there was when porn disguised-as-romance novel Twillight got called up for depicting an abussive relationship between a stalker, and a character so bland and uninspiring, that people seriously agreed it was nothing but a shamefully public avatar for whoever wanted to "feel" they were so important, despite not doing anything in particular, that they had a 140 years-old paedophile watching them in their sleep.
From this angle, if we also sum up things like rape-fandom, gore-fandom, and many other questionable, or outright sick stuff, DA included, we could think that humanity is stuck in a downward spiral into decadence. The world is about to end. Sin will be acceptable. And we better be born dead than having to endure this shitty reality; or we could join the resistance, and fight to get things back to normal until we either die, or succeed.
Here's the thing, I'm of the people whom believes that history is nothing but an endless loop. History repeats itself over and over again, only with a few minor changes. This means, that this bat-shit insane tendency of trivializing despicable acts every time will continue to build up until a point shit hits the fan, and then, the process resets back to the beginning. In simpler words, this will continue to happen until it becomes normal. Then it will continue to escalate until people starts to get fed up with it. Then it will keep like that until the great mayority has had enough with it, and decides to turn the table.
It might not happen overnight, maybe we get to live long, plentiful lives watching this going on and not even grasp the development of it. Maybe our children neither. Maybe, in a hundred years, or even a thousand (remember the Inquisition?), it will finally end in a chaotic clash of ideas, complete with lots of deaths, blames, history books, and what else.
It has happened before; before World War 2, rascism and segregation was completely normal. Before the American Civil War, slavery was completely normal. Before the French Revolution, human rights were non-existant. And before the Renainssance, being completed ignorant, and burning people for reading a book was acceptable. It's the way things have been for since the beginning of Mankind.
So, I did recomend either to sit back, and enjoy the moral-decay espectacable for as long as it last; or start from now to take action on the matter.
Gutten Nacht!

Ha-Ha the house of cards falls apart!
I'm so but so relieved that in this modern days where seemingly any idiot can call herself an artist and brag about how many pageview and likes she has is what matters instead of her own skill prowess.
All over the world, critics and professionals alike are slowy calling out these self-proclaimed "geniuses" who go around the museums, galleries, and internet communities talking of how great artists they are despite the fact that you need to: 1) get an explanation of what are you supposed to see; 2) and stare at the shit you have in front for like a week or two to finally "get it".
When I read Avelina's Lesper last talk at college students,
Frequently Made Complaints
F.M.C.s (Frequently Made Complaints)
You are reading this in case you received a critique for your art, and are not happy with it. Yes, xomplaints (a.k.a. excuses) are so repetitive you can actually make a how-to guide to respond using common sense.
A.-You are hurting my (their) feelings.
Please indicate with quotes where there are straight insults, disrespectful use of sarcasm, or simply a mock to the offended person.
Note: notice that any lack of compliments is by no means a form of offense. It’s just a lack of compliments.
B.-It’s my (their) style.
Style, in arts, refers to a series of features which identifies the work
About the 'strong opinions', everything is fine...
...But one thing.
DA & tartlet bullshit aside, there is one of these tips which should be expanded for the sake of people not going and screwing it up like a moron. Again, this won't stop genuine morons from screwing it up. But if one person is willing to think twice, it's one person less to worry about.

Basically, the last point "Don't copy people's works" leaves the window open for plenty of misinterpretation any moron can use to try getting away with their skill issues. I like to use the word"inspiration" instead of "copy".
Inspiration is

Seriously, this place reeks with the extreme opposite to that in a way it woudn't surprise me if this place is regarded as a one of the reasons for the problems of the world in future books.
