Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

overwatcher here. i haven't seen that (though i don't go digging in lucio's tag on tumblr or anything). the main problem i see re: lucio is his almost invisibility in porn. sadly, this is a thing that happens to black characters on the regular in fandom.

OTOH, reaper gets tons of porn. he's a dark-skinned latino. though not everyone draws him looking like that, because dying-cells whatever.

he looks pretty black to me

though they probably mean "he doesn't have enormous lips and bulging white eyes and a tribal outfit" since that's usually what tumblr kids mean when they say "not x enough"

Yes. I always figured seventy is a good time to go at most. Why should a stupid old fashioned idiot like me ruin the lives and opportunities of the young? Anyone voting on things they'll die before they have to deal with should be ashamed.

lucio's brazilian.

he might be mixed with african-something but he's not "full black" so no he wouldn't be "coded black" even if you think he does "look black"

which was another point I was going to bring up but couldn't figure out how to word it the right way

being Brazilian doesn't mean he's any less black, so idk why some people would say he's not black. Central and South America are chock full of black people who intermixed with Spanish, Portuguese, and indigenous tribes, but it doesn't change that they're black or of African descent.

tumblr is ridiculously ameri-centric and have a very very narrow view of what countries have black populations

just look at how little they fail to understand egypt's racial make-up

it's incredibly racist honestly

Speaking of which, I saw someone say Pharah didn't count because she's Arabic.

Even though Egypt is in Africa and "Arabic" is too broad a brush to paint over a country with as long a history and diverse a culture as Egypt...

I play a lot of video game characters and often the official art/using game screen caps looks like SHIT. Or even if it isn't, it's not at all a suitable range of expression that I need. Lately I've been caring more about how the consistency of my icons look rather than if they're from ~official sources~ or not. That and the character might be described as some very serious grizzled old guy but the official art/game screens makes them look like a cross-eyed anime twink or something. Which is dumb.

I try to credit where I can on the icon descriptions. some really old icons I made years ago before I started putting where I found them in the filename will just be lost to the ages. I feel bad about it, since I'm also an artist. if I don't know I just put "unknown" or "pm with source" or something. I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to use my art as an icon for dwrp, so long as they don't claim they drew it... or edit it to the point it's completely unrecognizable. (you may want to consider using another source image if it needs to be edited that much.) if it's an eye/hair color change or cleaning up sketch lines or taking out speech bubbles or something i don't care. i do that once in a while as needed.

pretty much this

it's hilarious but also sad how little would-be sj slacktivisits understand about the world outside of their american bubble. lucio doesn't fit whatever stereotypes of african americans they have conjured up, so he's not "coded black" or "black enough", nevermind that he's neither african nor american.

funny thing is that "eyptians aren't ACTUALLY BLACK" is a bullshit argument that racists through the years have used in order to justify white people jerking it to eyptian culture and history and lumping its "civilization" in with western countries for years. they're just doing the same thing coming at it from the other side.

it's like the "why choose to be straight and cis when u can choose to be gay and demigender" bullshit all over again. the worm eats its own tail etc.

be smart about lying.

Okay then. I'll do that and run the risk of being blacklisted from the extremely seclusive market my career field is in. :D

And yes, being blackballed/blacklisted does happen.

I think I would know Nora's fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women. It is a rather girlish noise not like the wet windy fart which I imagine fat wives have. It is sudden and dry and dirty like what a bold girl would let off in fun in a school dormitory at night. I hope Nora will let off no end of her farts in my face so that I may know their smell also.

It might still be something you want to do! I think my issue is mostly that small non-profits by necessity need all their staffers to do admin work. If you work at the ACLU or whatever, they have assistants for that.

Unfortunately I'm actually into JoJo's so I probably shouldn't use him as a PB or things will get confusing. Thanks, though!

i don't understand the people who work themselves into a frothing rage over having japanese audio in their games

i can understand if the dub is really shitty but saying you're going to boycott a game and hoping it fails and further releases don't get localized? purely because it's dub only audio? jesus christ
