I've been thinking about crop circles and how they kind of just stopped being a thing like 20 years ago and I've decided the obvious explanation is that they were all made by one individual alien who recently retired from the art world after a long career of controversial surrealist art in which he went from one pre-contact planet to another fucking with the indigenous species' corn

[looking at the photos]:  ‘yeah i could probably do something like that in about six sheets of paper. Maybe as few as four. One square is straight up impossible though, at least without cutting it.’

[watching the video]: ...OH.

once again stating that "dude" being gender-neutral is a North American English regional dialect variation (like people calling carbonated beverages "soda," "pop," "cola," or "coke" depends on where in the US or Canada you are). Specifically, Dude is strictly gender-neutral in Southern & Central California, and I *think* Hawai'i, as an outgrowth of surf culture (think Bill & Ted's very exaggerated 80s LA stoner/surfer dialect)

Dude is MASCULINE in much of the Southwest, Plains, & Midwest when you get into and over the Rocky Mountains, because *there* it's from cowboy culture/slang.

East Coast is weird because we got it from surf culture migrating to Florida & the Carolinas, but it kinda leans masculine, but it also kinda doesn't & depends on where you are.

Which is a long-winded way of saying -- Southern Californians especially are genuine when they're flummoxed by being told that "dude" is masculine, because in their dialect it genuinely isn't. It's also hard for them to stop because they say it almost on reflex, like a filler word.

HOWEVER, if 'dude' makes someone uncomfortable because in THEIR dialect it has other connotations, stop using it! That is polite! Or at least make a strong effort. I know it is very hard not to just spout out "aw bummer dude"

(Similarly, "Hon" in Baltimore and iirc Philly dialect is also completely gender neutral, but I get when people get uncomfy / feel misgendered when I say "aw hon I'm sorry")

Yeah, hon is gender-neutral in Philly. But you still don't use it if people don't like it.

This animation without the filter because it fucked with the framerate for some reason (this isn't the intended look otherwise, but bleh)

im sure most of you dont give a flying dick tit about godzilla shit but this model and now animation is the first thing ive made and was kinda proud of in a long time .

WAIT YOU MADE THIS?

idk probably

im worried that the reason you're getting less attention than you deserve is that this looks like it was clipped out of a Movie, and not one of the lower budget ones

2,840,658 polys

i make my rigs myself
