Yeah its a fucking mystery, anon.
>>28881197
At least change it up sometimes, you horndogs.
>>28881226
no. men hugging and kissing each other is the purest form of love. If you want to see men in your female porn that's your problem. Otherwise leave the disgusting crotch gashes out of here. Have fun being nagged by women for the rest of your life because you were cursed to think nasty pussy is hot
>>28881263
>Hey, anon, why don't you feel any kinship with the gay community even though you are a gay GnC guy?
>>28881263
Anon, this meme needs to stop. Just because you're gay doesn't mean you repulse females.
>>28881263
For a bunch of woman haters, you sure act like them.
>>28879918
Strong contender for sexiest grunt.

cute

What else could you expect from a team with such a sexy leader?

Reel that edge in a bit, maybe

I cant find any good male grunt porn, any help?

rule34.paheal.net is a pretty good place, you might end up having to sift throug a lot of female grunts though

the thread had lit just started when you posted this and there was already a heteropic.. no one complains when people post hetero stuff in the gay threads as much as u wanna be a special snowflake

Damn, where do we go now? 8-chan? 8-chan's kinda bullshit, I don't want to be there.
>>28888293
I don't think that even 8gag can support the amount of users and bandwidth that 4chan chews through.
A lot of the money probably goes into the bandwidth and the fact that 4chan's cdns automatically rehost every image even images from other sites locally whereas sites like reddit can cheat by offloading all the big hosting costs to imgur for example.
>>28888477
I'm seeing posts that Hiro shut off the ad system. This is beginning to feel more like premeditated murder.
>>28888745
The jlist thing?
A lot of ad companies don't actually like 4chan due to /pol/, /b/ etc so it's probably harder for them to find advertising.
>>28889154
Still, I remember seeing J-list ads just a few months ago. The ad space is just gone.
The Shkreli thing is starting to look like it was a ruse, so at least there's that.
>>28889295
And on that note, more men
>>28886855
Why is a "pokemon-lovestory" or any kind of ship for that matter always detached from oth the franchie and the character?
Why are they always those generic "tumblr drama" characters with ankle deep personality and generic love problems?
>>28894403
Probably because most smut goes exactly that deep? It's fine if you want more story, and there's stuff out there that goes nto more depth with the characters. But don't hold male/male to a higher standard than other pairings, there's no reason to other than to have something to complain about.
>>28894502
That's not what I said. It doesn't matter if it's a straight or gay ship for that matter.
It's the fact that the characters are taken from their universes and lose all of their personality to fit into this one type of generic character in a generic fanfiction-esque plot.
>>28894541
You're getting mad at smut for being smut. Fuck off to AO3 if it bothers you that much.
>>28894597
You know that AO3 is just the same?
Whatever, yaoi fangirls never learn, anyway.
>>28894612
What the actual fuck do you even want dude? A 50-chapter novel outlining the grand plot of xy with Sycamore and Lysandre's tumultuous relationship woven throughout? If you're just showing the sex or even sfw content, there's not a lot of different directions you can go.
Please explain to me how someone is supposed to convey personality in a picture of two characters holding hands. Then explain to me why an artist doing it for free should give a shit.
>>28894662
Maybe just cut it if all you do is talk shit. This entire thing was about this comic and these types of comics/pics only >>28885818.
>>28894687
Not that anon but there are plenty of good books with great characterisation. Here are a few of my favourites.
Modern fiction
NK Jemisin's Fifth Season and the Obelisk Gate
Daniel Abraham's The Dagger and Coin series and Long Price Quartet
Seth Dickinson's The Traitor Baru Comorant
Guy Gavriel Kay's Tigana and The Lions of Al-Rassan
CS Friedman's Coldfire Trilogy
Jasper Fforde's Shades of Grey
Classics
The Picture of Dorian Grey
Stanislaw Lem's Solaris
The first two books of the Hyperion Cantos
Jack Vance's Tales of the Dying Earth
Zelazny Roger's The Chronicles of Amber
Orwell's 1984
Strugatsky Roadside Picnic
William Gibson's Sprawl Trilogy
Phillip Dick's Do the Androids Dream of Electric Sheep
Short fiction
Brian Aldiss' Super Toys Last All Summer Long
Arthur C. Clarke - The Nine Billion Names of God
>>28894687
Maybe try being clearer with what you're trying to convey? I still don't even know what your problem is. It's two characters in a common domestic scene. Are you seriously suggesting tumblr invented being turned down for sex? Is your problem that they're living together? Tumblr didn't invent that either. It's clearly not canon, but neither is most fanfiction.
You just want to complain about tumblr.
>>28894709
Should add Peter Watts' Blindsight/Echopraxia to modern fiction
Light anime like modern books with complicated plot, interesting characterisation and simple prose
The Gentleman Bastards by Scott Lynch
James Islington's The Shadow of What was Lost
YA
Lord of Opium/The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer
Chaos Walking by Patrick Ness
>>28894749
> It's two characters in a common domestic scene.
It's entirely removed from the universe and gives them a generic "romantic comedy" personality.
>>28894709
Were did you copy that from, anon?
>Pokemon Generations renews people's interest in the best Poke'man
I'm glad I've seen more of him lately, even if it's only a temporary thing. My favorite trainer as a kid, my favorite husbando as an adult.
>>28894785
You're mad at a single piece of fanart for not being able to convey "pokemon"
Yeah you're full of shit
It's one of those cases when I don't know if I want to be him or be with him
>>28894827
I feel the same. He's always been my favorite character from pokemon. It's been nice to see more of him.
>>28894908
>>28894827
I haven't played the earlier games, so generations was a nice introduction
>>28894797
Just some of the stuff I read with very memorable characterisation. Like 99% isn't gay as writers are pretty conservative people until fairly recent times (which was what that Hugo drama was all about.)
There are a few interesting fanfictions that I've come across for Pokemon like Shadowed Visage by CherryJacks which toys with concepts such as happiness and the nature of reality but most can be a little simplistic. To produce non generic characters authors would probably have to do a lot more research and read a lot more widely (David Hume makes a very good philosophical argument that human ideas are not the product of innate creativity but rather everything is copied or a combination of copied ideas: http://www.iep.utm.edu/hume/#H2 which I think helps to legitimise fanfic).
The biggest failings of fanfics are sticking far too closely to the game plot, only dealing with things that occur within the game plot (it's really important that the characters are tested by conflict) or using romance as a crutch for actual plot.
Doctor Who had a few book length fanfics which were actually rejected novels http://doctorwho.org.nz/archive/campaign/ but no other fandom I've come across has equivalent quality or dedication in the writers.
>>28894974
Anon, there's no excuse not to just emulate them all. Everything from GB to 3DS (well only ORAS for 3DS) and colo/XD can be emulated.
>>28894962
This is why everyone wants /pol/ deleted
>>28894987
I know I can just emulate, I'm just also lazy as hell
>>28894987
>Like 99% isn't gay as writers are pretty conservative people until fairly recent times (which was what that Hugo drama was all about.)
>Sexuality is a choice and conservatives choose to not be gay.
>>28895222
I'm discussing whether or not the authors include gay characters or not, not whether or not they are or aren't gay.
>>28895263
Just shit-stirrers anon, don't worry about them
>>28894974
Yeah, I really liked that episode.
>>28895263
You are saying that authors who don't center gay relationships are conservative.
Don't see any flaws with that?
>>28897387
>>28897530
I can see the confusion, but I think they're using the dictionary definition of conservative instead of the political affiliation.
>>28897752
And also that not everyone needs to write gay couples, but there would be more if homosexuality wasn't so often positioned as an enemy to conservative values.
>>28897752
Maxie's stupid hair and glasses make me upset for some reason. Probably hipster association.
>>28898277
How about the RSE version?
