Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 8hTwitter's fucked... Bluesky's fucked... I really wanna believe a third to this would be the charm, I dunno In hindsight, the first mistake was making this site open to the public. I still remember when this place was invite-only, and I was lucky enough to have a connection way back when... 😩 130

I am, also, 2000+ miles from home doing photography I expected to pay for with that income.

Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 10hYeah, I just had a peak through twitter for a wee little bit It's still full of hateful bile. The people acting like that place is somehow more tolerable than Bsky are insane Let's face it, both sites absolutely suck. My personal experience here has just been the least nauseating; but it still is 030

Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Oh! Yeah, I love Aseprite. I just also like doing... *Regular* digital art on the side, to practice stylization and stuff, which I feel translates into my skills with Aseprite; which yeah, means a mouse feels more natural to me 😅 So yeah, I do kinda wonder how much milage I'll get out of CSP... 120
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Well, my primary craft is game design, and by extension pixel-art. Drawing is something I do because I feel it helps bolster my understanding of pixel-art Though, I would love to make illustrations related to my projects someday... Not sure what I'd do, exactly 120
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026WAIT. My bad, DELAY is what Krita's slider is called. Stabilizer is just a general term for a particular mode which *stablilizes* the brush so that I can more easily keep it on a straight line Now if CSP has something similar and if I can discover what it is... 100
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Huh, but Krita's stability slider works like a charm for me. I can't really do anything without it... 😅 100
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Ah, that would be neat to have... When I tried the trial though, I had to dig for the stability slider, and when I found it and tried adjusting it, it didn't seem to do anything... Stability... I... I *think* that was supposed to be the thing that makes the lines less shaky, right? 100
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Please just... Look around and try to pick up the pieces... I really don't feel like trying to explain right now 😓 I just wish people would move on to a different problem already and quite harassing others 000
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026That's it. That's fucking it. If I see another fucking repost related to that god damn fucking trend, I am FUCKING BLOCKING you JFC I haven't been able to go one fucking day on this site without you people continuing to dick-ride this bullshit, and I'm starting to go batshit insanestatic.klipy.comI Am About To Crash Out Sunflower MemeALT: I Am About To Crash Out Sunflower Meme 110
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I'm just... Getting sick, period. Sick of the trend. Sick of the crusades against it. Sick of the SIMPS for it. It's bringing out the worst in everyone I just wanna wake up one morning and not ever see or hear about any of this again 😑 010
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I really need someone to speak to right now... I just feel so confused and disoriented... 030
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I'm using PC by the way, and am drawing with a mouse. Dunno if that's something that could be making or breaking the experience for me. Unfortunately I just can't wield a stylus very well 210
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Yeah, I dunno to be honest... Maybe I'm just so used to how Krita works, but I'm kinda not feeling it; feels like a lot of brush settings I like to use are kept hidden out of sight. And trying to import a model feels like trying to navigate a labyrinth... I may just stick to what I already know 😅 110
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Hmmmm... Hey, #artmoots #artists how're y'all's experiences with this? I've been using Krita for the longest time now, kinda on the fence as to whether this tool will be good for me I'm at least considering giving the trial a spin and seeing how it goes 230
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Stand up for your friends as you must, that's what a good friend would do Just as long as you're not bringing fire against fire, otherwise everyone ends up being scorched... 100
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Just block 'em, please. This behavior is counter-productive and needs to stop 😑 100
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Let me know when someone makes a social media platform that's run by people who actually give a damn, with a community that actually has some goodwill Pipe dream? Yeah, probably I'm just so tired man... Why do people have to be so awful? 😩 070
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Yeah, actually, I'm now just remembering Twitter's penchant for dumping fake engagement on people The occasional spam follows on this site are annoying enough, I'm pretty sure Twitter is still actually gonna just be bad for my mental health. I'm just gonna keep to this shithole 030
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Sorry for all my rambling today, my heart's gone heavy with grief and frustration Is it truly impossible to just... Have a space for kind, well-meaning creators? Is it too much to ask for a place where we can just share our silly things, smile with our silly friends, and make some silly memories? 040
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I'm wondering if I should resume cross-posting my gamedev stuff between here and Twitter, like I used to. As much as I hate that site, the hostility of this platform is forcing a divide I'd still main this site. Most of my moots are here, and Twitter's community is still really off-putting to me 140
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Man... I don't even know anymore. I always knew this site had some pretty rotten eggs, the Yunayu situation is just another grim reminder Really though, Yunayu, of all people. How depraved does one have to be to harass HER? It really is no wonder to me why some insist on staying on Twitter now 180

Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I'm gonna put my foot down on this ONE more time Harassment is NOT okay. Period. I don't give a fuck who it is or what your justification may be Don't like what someone else does? Block and move on, that's all y'all needed to do, and all would've been fine Get a fucking life. All of you 130
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Wow. I almost NEVER feel the need to say this, but I am fucking LIVID right now Seriously though, I will BLOCK you before giving you any lip if you actually think THAT WAS OKAY Go ahead, put me on a shit list if it gives you any catharsis, I'd be more than happy to be blocked by you ignorant twits 120
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026No, really, actually FUCK the lot of you who gave her that shit. Over a drawing. That wasn't even made with mal- intent No. Stop. I don't give an actual shit what any of y'all's excuses are. If you're actually gonna come at me to try and explain why harassment is okay... FUCK. YOU 140
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Went on Twitter real quick to remind myself which artist Yunayu was (I follow so many artists that I can't remember everyone's names) Fucking ASS dude, I actually loved her work, always brightened my day when I saw it. And y'all fuckwads just bullied off the site 150
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026The artist deletes their account, goes back to Twitter, and is welcome with open arms; thus making Twitter look like a more welcoming an accepting environment than this site. A lose/lose situation all around Anyway, read maxx's thread, they've given the best explanation I've seen about this matter 010
Elric Murphy @epsilon017.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I've been keeping discourse about "the trend" at a distance, but this thread is a pretty important read In summary: An Asian artist gets harassed *on this site* over drawing "the trend", likely over a cultural misunderstanding due to the harm related the IP NOT being a globally understood issue 110
