sarcasm was not clear, I bought a kilo of heroin after reading your first comment and now I don't know what to do with it. I'm using it as a mousepad now

These are some of my favorites that you haven't listed. I pretty much only browse TF content

Rakisha/Tanraak does some of the best lighting and musculature work I know of, and prefers to define shapes and contours just through how they distort the shine on top of solid colors. Also a lot of cybernetics. Masterful work all around and the kind of artist I aspire to be.

Redflare500 does a lot of shiny clothing and inanimate TFs. It's often creepy and uncanny but just enough to add to the excitement IMO.

Helixjack/Shinyhelix does a ton of goo content and is one of my older favorites. Over the last decade their art style has changed from being near Fox0808 to near Redflare.

Rhaenjarr is less on the TF side, more often does creatures that were shiny to begin with. When goo shows up it's much more viscous and weighty than most other artists' styles, and with more diffuse reflections like the material is closer to silicone. Very good with backgrounds and scene composition. Makes me wish I had more $ for commissions

check op's profile, pretty sure these posts are just meant to be confounding

tbh at this point being a Linux user is a Lemmy meme

Nitpick: the proper term is "virtual desktop" or "workspace", as "desktop environment" is already a common term for the software composing the entire user interface.

I enjoy using this feature on any operating system since it lets me quickly scan through and declutter open windows, and place categories of windows in their own workspaces. I might have only productivity windows on one, and leisure and socials on another. It's especially effective if you learn the keyboard shortcuts for navigating inside and between workspaces. All this improves my productivity and keeps distractions away.

Every time I sneeze I redirect all the air into a cough. If I actually need my sinuses cleared (e.g., at the end of a cold germ) I just blow my nose. Am I in the minority?

I've heard of lab-grown flesh cloned from a burn victim's own flesh replacing the need for an invasive skin graft retrieval, and a gold nanoparticle mixture placed into an old spinal cord injury to cause microscopic damage and force the body to resume healing the severed nerves. Those are the big two I like to talk about. I'm optimistic about things like whole working artificial organs in the next 50 years

The Mandela Effect does not exist in the manner you're describing, and by priming your audience to expect a specific false memory you're tainting the data from any responses you get.

People wouldn't have the Berenstain/Bernstein thing mixed up in their heads so much if the conversation about it was always phrased as "Who are the authors of that old children's picture book series with the bears?" instead of adding doubt with "Do you remember the authors as Berenstain or Bernstein?"

I actually went to a real-life sex shop for the first time in my life.

I was nervous out of my mind and I was doing this weird fidgeting thing where I rub the inside edge of my eyelids with my hands over my nose and mouth, and the woman who runs the place asked if I was having an allergic reaction to the air freshener. That's the humorous bit I think about to stop dwelling on how intense it was for me. It broke nearly every rule and norm I've ever lived by. I've had about ten distinct "I can't believe I'm doing this" moments just in the last month.

The owner of the store was very polite, and spoke plainly about sexuality and masturbation so far as it was relevant to my business there. It was as if none of it were ever taboo to begin with, and that kind of approach was just what I needed to not have a heart attack right there. I got a mid-size metal plug and a small thing of lube and I've been casually exploring with it since then.

In other news, I learned that I've made enough progress restoring my foreskin that artificial lube doesn't do much for me, and a lot of the time my glans looks like I'm uncut. Nature is healing

Bro, you just downvoted everyone and changed the automatic upvote on all your own comments into downvotes. Both vote totals are recorded separately
