The spite, hate, rage, apathy and mild irritation thread...

Wow man, thanks! I know some rudimentary stuff, but in general I dislike doing artwork on the computer, even though I know I should get passable at it.

The nice thing about Inkscape is that it is free and it has the trace bitmap function that will trace your scan and convert it to vector. The controls are similar to threshold in photoshop or GIMP. Gives you a nice lineart vector version of what you drew by hand. At that point it is just masking and filling. The changing opacity and stuff to give some blends. It works pretty well but I use GIMP to clean up my line art before Inkscape gets it so that I can kind of take care of some problems before trying to edit vectors.

can we firebomb the midwest after we airlift out the rad people plz?

whoa whoa whoa...It is really beautiful here, dude. Don't blow it up - we just need very calculated lightning strikes on all the bible thumping, conservative dick heads around here.

[D.o.S.]

I like your method better. I was a little tipsy and had to sit and listen this dipshit who had somehow wandered into my local bar go on and on about about fucking gun rights and that reporter who got shot and how "back in North Dakota (which isn't the Midwest, sorry team) we didn't have..." and fuck everything.

Yes, I don't know what other part of the country can promise cheap rent and a bar on every corner.

And the Green Bay Packers

I don't know where the Midwest of the U.S. really is, I'm in Australia. But cheap rent and a bar on every corner. Sounds like paradise to me. If there is fresh clean air and a good weed scene, then sign me up.
The bible thumping, conservative dickheads seems like the only real downside sounds like Salt Lake City.
We actually have them Mormon wankers come out here to Australia in their suits riding bicycles around our suburbs, door knocking and trying to save us. We invite them in and get them high with our passive bong smoke and try corrupt them with our laid back lifestyle. You should see the state they are in when they leave That kind off fun is one of the only things I miss about living in the suburbs.

I have some high value [sic] targets among my relations that I want on the target list. Who do I talk to?

[snipelfritz]

Fresh air, sure. Weed scene, eehhhhh, maybe Minneapolis in the near future. Unless you're counting Colorado, but say bye bye to cheap rent.

You have just got to be ready for that polar vortex. Bring a scarf.

On that topic, I'm kind of thinking this might be my last Wisconsin winter.

you guys ever feel like if you don't change everything about your life, the stress, anxiety, and depression is literally going to kill you but you don't know how and you have zero financial resources

Few things are making me more angry, right now, than people hiding their homophobia behind a banner of "Pro-Family."

yeah i find it funny that it was perfectly acceptable for my heterosexual parents to get divorced, pass me back and forth every week as a child and expect me to spend 'family time' with their new boyfriend/girlfriend of the moment (it weirds me out that this is so common and calling parents out on it is somehow inappropriate or ungrateful, but it's seriously wrecked the way i think about relationships)..
...but if there happens to be two loving parents of the same gender then all of a sudden it's NOPE HOW COULD YOU SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
people are fucking unbelievable.

they scared of the booty.

This is exactly what's running through my mind most of every day. You certainly aren't alone there

[gunslinger_burrito]

Same here these days. I think all the BS in life is finally starting to overwhelm me. But as bad as it gets I refuse to give in or up, whatever that would constitute.

I'm not any kind of social justice wizard, but people really make a big deal about having to explain Gay relationships to kids. Your kids do know what love is - right?
Then just say that it's exactly like that, instead of making some convoluted explanation to explain to them.
