I see it used mostly for manually painted 3D scenes - where the artist has textured the objects with brush strokes, or a procedural shader setup that makes it look like they've been painted.

Random example from the internet:

My sister managed to get her bank account emptied by scammers. She gave them the 2fa code to log in 🤦‍♂️ like how dumb can you be. (Rhetorical question tbh, she's an idiot lmao)

It has been stolen.

I've invented a credit card fraud checker. Just reply to my comment with your credit card number and I'll let you know if it's been stolen.

Yep. Etsy stopped caring completely when they realised how much revenue drop shippers were bringing in. There was no way I could compete with silver plated copper from China with personalised engraving for $15 when the chains took 8+ hours to make and were made with pure silver. This was back when silver was $30/ounce. Now it's $91. And the chains were 2-3 ounces by the time I was done.

Some cats are psycho about food. Mine definitely, and screams at me for hours a day even though he knows when feeding time is and he still has food from breakfast. People recommend an automatic feeder because the cat stops associating the person with feeding time and bothers the feeder instead. I haven't tried it yet, but it makes sense to me and would probably work on the fat cunt

I used to make fine silver chains by hand and sell them on Etsy, and did quite well with it. Then it got flooded with drop shippers despite that being against terms of service. But you could see the biggest and most successful jewellery sellers all had identical products and if you search their product titles on Ali express or Temu it was the first result. I went from 5-10 sales which was a couple grand a month to zero the instant they stopped policing it.

I can only imagine how bad it is now with ai. I tried to browse Etsy for something recently and there was literally pages of ai slop. I don't think I saw a single real product.

Imo clinging to the remainder of your hair is never a good look. I've had thinning hair since 25, and shaving it off looks infinitely better than the friar tuck I have going on at 30

I made this just to prove you were just making fun of him for being fat.
