Hi. I'm Pad. I paint things, mostly digitally, in my spare time. I'm Welsh. Also, I have autism, if that's of any significance to you. All my works are licenced as CC-BY-SA 4.0 International, except those which are fanart of existing works, in which case I permit you to use them anywhere still, but I can't legally publish them into that licence.
This is the hexadecapus. It's like an octopus but it has sixteen arms, so it probably has seventeen brains. One day it's going to build its own civilisation and take over the world.
Every Garry's Mod addon I have downloaded up to 24 April 2024. This includes many addons containing fanmade asset ports related to a certain evil company I shall not name. You might have to decompile these .bins and .gmas before using them? I'm not sure.
Indeed. It's language that allows us as humans to know exactly what others are thinking, and it's this desire to know exactly the thoughts of others that creates thought-policing, where you're judged not for what you do, but for who you are or what you think. No other species has psychological violence like ours, because they only care what you do, not what you think. A mouse is threatened by a cat, yet it only cares for physically escaping the cat, not what the cat is motivated by or what the cat is thinking.
I think the most fucked up thing about intrusive thoughts is it's really difficult to discuss them without discussing their content, because without a discussion of their content it's impossible to get across just how distressing and debilitating they are. "Oh, you have unpleasant thoughts sometimes? Yeah we all have that, I guess."
But if you discuss their content there's this huge risk of people just pulling away in disgust. "Oh god, you have THOSE sorts of thoughts? They should lock freaks like you the fuck up!" As if they think people act on every single thought they have.
