This one... Misses the mark for me. The best pose on here is the eyes, which I quite love. However I do think they are a bit too low - even though I understand the design choice of doing so - it adds a creepy vibe that I enjoy. I also like the arm pose - I think that one was quite well done. I docked this one two stars on my rating because I feel like the color combinations are lacking. I don't feel red/orange/black are very harmonious, but I do appreciate that they didn't go for the basic/overused red/black/white. I would have liked to see purple/green and maybe more gold/silver accents. I do like the other two colors a bit more - I think they'll work well with some other similarly themed items. Another problem I have is with the hat... I feel like we have a few hats already like this, but I have a hard time imagining this working with most hairs.

I quite like the theme of this item. It's kind of a cliche, however because of that it's also an avatar site staple, I feel. As well, I think it turns the cliche on its head with a bit of unique styling and color options. I'm giving it a 4/5, because I feel that the pose options are a tad lacking. In other words, it does feel a bit basic for a crate item. I would like to see it a bit more dynamic, as in a bit more things going on around the avatar/subverting the original shape of the base (that being said, I do appreciate that these poses should work a lot with other items because of that, so I do like that about it). Overall I don't feel a strong want for the item, but that's probably more of a personal taste issue.

This one hits the nail on the head for me. I love plant themed items, so this is right up my alley. I quite enjoy the color combinations as well. I also love big coats and scarves. What I think this item does really well is balance positive/negative space. I like the plant details a lot. This one I have a hard time describing why I love it, but I do. I need.

I don't think I'd be able to do my job. I guess I'd get to stay home for a month. But then, no games or TV. Would get to sleep a lot.

What if you could see through walls?

I guess vampire, because I don't like the sun anyway, and at least I wouldn't have a day every month where I am not myself and can't control my actions... That's indeed a tough one though.

Would you rather have to endure a day hanging out with Logan Paul or Jake Paul (lol sorry, i just watched Shane Dawson's deep dive on the brothers)

@erebus: I can't wait for them to put out more. It's probably my favorite as far as how detailed they get - I realize that makes me sound morbid but I am a huge fan of like, deep dives into subjects, yanno?

They have a really excellent episode early on about the Amity Horror House - I was hooked by that episode, haha!

Oh woahhhh I have not heard that! I am absolutely going to look that up, thank you!

@erebus: YAAAAS another murderino haha! I listened to Small Town Dicks first because I heard about it on the radio - that one is honestly so chilling, since they have the detectives that worked the case there talking with them.

I think you'd like ATWWD as well if you like MFM, it's pretty silly. <333

My Favorite Murder

(All three above are true crime... lol. And ATWWD has paranormal, too.)

I also like these ones by Youtubers:

Very Really Good (Kurtis Conner)
SleepyCast/SleepyCabin (This one is by Oney/PsychicPebbles/Spazzkid/RicePirate/etc so their humor is dark and really inappropriate, so it's not for everyone - also occasionally a bit offensive...)

And,

The Woody Show (This one is actually a daily radio show, but they put out their thing in podcast form. I love em. Super weird.)

I don't understand how I can sleep like a brick and yet still wake up as tired as I was when I went to bed. All I want to do is sleep. And play video games. But mostly sleep.

My dear, I hope you find peace. I want to tell you that things will get better, but I know that it is almost impossible to see through the dark that you're in. Even though I do not know you, I'm glad you were given another chance. I have so many friends that are in your boat, and I know someone that took their own life not long ago. Let the people around you be selfish - I'm sure there are many people whose lives would be much dimmer without you. Don't be afraid to lean on others in your hard times. And it may not be much, but us on Voltra are always here to listen. These words could be meaningless to you, but I sincerely hope that your demons quiet.

I'm so sorry you've been through so much. koneko is right - you are amazingly strong.

Ah, yeah that is a common thing people say when they are against abortion, they'll say abstinence is the best birth control, which personally I believe to be very ignorant. Sex will happen anyway - it's better to teach safe sex practices and provide birth control.

I totally feel you on the "eww affection" level, my brain does the same thing. However, there's nothing wrong with setting boundaries. I don't like to be touched much and my best friends know this (i do like hugs though), but they have come to understand this about me and respect my boundaries, even though they are very touch driven themselves. If they are a good friend they will understand <3
