Didn't get far at all in American Gods book
Didn't think there would be this many penises seeing the show
I started America Gods the book like 10 times, and never got far. Anasazi Boys had me chewing through it
Regarding the bolded, It's definitely a perspective that needs to be considered. On one hand, there are definitely women (PoC or not) with a body (or ass to be more specific) like Twintelle's. It's not some blatantly unrealistic thing. I do notice that some people (understandably considering how female characters are usually treated) have an aversion to any sort of "assets" for a female character, as if it couldn't exist. But nevertheless, I can't really fault a non-white woman looking at the design and potentially having issues with it.
I've been caping for her a bit because it's a noteworthy PoC character for Nintendo's new game for their new console, which is genuinely neat to see, and obvious "assets" aside, her design looks great.
I highly doubt that Nintendo is unaware of how the Internet reacts to a girl with an ass, but no clue on whether it's unconscious bias or not to give it to the PoC character. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. Ultimately however, my opinion is that she's basically a good example of how to make an attractive character without it having some embarrassing aspect to it. Where said design is tasteful, rather than it being a weird hill to die on. Not to mention there's 3 other characters that look different from one another, so it feels like that makes it more okay to have that one character that's clearly supposed to be the "sexy" one. If it was some obvious trend or if she was the only female character, it'd be a lot easier to criticize on my part. I just feel like we're just kind of currently intertwined in how the Internet reacts to characters like her, but if we just briefly ignore that for a moment, I felt like it's safe to say what Nintendo created is perfectly fine. I felt like the refreshing addition of her having some actual muscle, as well as the whole class/elegance thing, also helps to not make her come off as a caricature of sorts.
Yea, I don't got nothing for that.
I would not be surprised if the designer was looking up pictures of Beyonce, so I'm going to say it's "unconscious", but it's still "questionable", especially since I believe this may be the first Black woman playable character that Nintendo has created.
The only other thing I believe is the Black Squid Girl skin color for Splatoon, so yea, probably.

Mornin' everyone.

East Coast getting hit hard with the heat, hope y'all staying cool over there. This is supposedly going to be the hottest summer, or that's what I keep hearing at least.

UK will still be damn cold though
I don't think you have to buy it. Based on these instructions it just gives me a code and a url and I give that to whoever wants in. The settings are "host decides" and "crowd decides" and I'm probably gonna set it to the latter.
I'll start it later this evening (around like 7PM PST) and put the code and stuff up on the discord as long as there are enough people to join.

Like freezing cold? I like the cold, but I like warm summer air too. It'll stay cool-ish here in Vancouver, up until around July.

I hate when a female character has a good design but all fan art devolves into "look at that butt". 2B from nier suffers the same fate.

It did.
It reallyreallyreally did.
Which is a shame cause the game from beginning to end is a masterpiece
It's sunny here atm but only 60F. So not that warm at all.
It was. Well, probably got more people to play it I guess...

I'm not convinced that the internets current obsession with butts isn't just a giant meme. I'm curious what body part will be latched on to next.
as cold as the last month was, I believe it.
For real? I'm for it, then. I'll be around.
It was 80+ in Toronto for 2 days, and now we're back to a humble 50, barely.
Yeah, seems like it
Pretty sure you don't need to use mobile. PC browsers should work fine

Now thats perfect surfing weather for me brother.
Thats too big of a swing, but not surprising it was snowing up in Vancouver a slight on Monday. When do we get to put the winter clothes completely away and just pull out all the summer gear. I'm about to just say to hell with it and be the dude wearing shorts in 10c weather.
Count me in my man, I should be settled in before 7 anyways.

Whitlock will forever be a piece of shit. Im not the biggest Lavar Ball fan, but when he said rhe only thing Whitlock should comment on is snacks..... I was dead.
Well, we're in a figurative hell already. Might as well be a literal one too.
Turning in early before the fuckery starts
She got a lightning bird
Japanese guys and white guys aren't used to what a non flat butt looks like, so they need to marvel in its rare occurrence.
This is the expectation. nsfwish
Actually you know what, where did that whole black people have lightning powers thing even start. Pops up way too often.

Where's the butt?
It's lacking and that's my point. A butt is not something that the otaku hordes are prepared to adequately contend with, so any such appearance will cause undue attention to be drawn to it.
