That’s the thing about having a fantasy that’s physically impossible.

Those were very interesting to answer, thanks!

@protect-tinies I can work my way around the censorship with my understanding of OpenAI’s tech, as frustrating as it can be sometimes. That being said, I’m not against some safeguards and regulations in AI image gens and most of my work is SFW anyway. I just hate it when it considers “size difference” as a policy breach.

I’ve had a look at Gab before and that’s a disgusting alt-right / neo-nazi site. I’m not touching that with a ten-foot pole.

That’s a nice solution, much simpler to implement than actually knowing a complete language. Even the terms used for descriptions in English might change as the understanding grows (ie. “giant captor” --> “giant savior”)

@blehb said in Language barrier:

For example: The tiny woman stared up at the giant captor, fighting back tears as she clasped her hands together and softly said “Ni nathathol?”

My Sindarin is a bit rusty but during the solar eclipse last week, at totality my daughter turned to me and said “mornië alantië!” which made me tear up a bit (and a very proud father lol)

@blehb I’m dedicated to the Adeptus Mechanicus, as a software engineer I can relate so much to their rituals and their near-hopeless fight to maintain in working order technologies that are now beyond comprehension, with all traces of documentation having been lost to time. They really do require quasi-religious maintenance, hehe.

I do hope the TV series portrays a lore-accurate view of this universe.

@Deedee said in What celebrities would you want to see more of in sizekink content?:

More than once I imagined myself as one of those little models for sale

Minis can be quite distracting/triggering, and I’ve recently discovered that this was a rather common thing for size-kink-gamers.

@blehb said in Shrinking Abilities:

Having more content to enjoy is a lucky thing!

True, that’s why I envy bisizual switchers, makes it that much easier to find new content!

@blehb said in Shrinking Abilities:

But I’ve read opinions in the past where people say it’s seeing the shrinking process itself that does it for them

Oh believe me I know! You’re talking to someone who was banned on The Process Forum because I had posted media w/ no process in it.

Should have known with the forum’s name but I didn’t think they were religious about it. To be fair that was 15+ years ago, the admin was a bit of a dick, and SW was only just tolerated back then.

@blehb said in I feel like 'unaware' tends to be pretty uncommon in M/f. What is everyone's opinions on it?:

We know we can push a big’s buttons and they’ll still be gentle and respectful in the end. It’s a symbol of how much we trust you.

Awww pshhhshfhffftf (sound of this giant melting from the wholesomeness) Always loved the idea that I could somehow be that worthy of her trust in spite of being able to end her anytime by accident. Definitely not a level that can be achieved overnight. Part of the reasons I always thought that first interactions with a SW (once discovered and aware of her presence) would be awkward as hell for me, in spite of my inner desires.

And discipline, well… depending on what you have in mind, that can also require a great deal of trust on both sides. But that’s another story.

he’s legitimately worried and fretfully searching, I love those moments

Micro can definitely be scary for both the SW and the giant! “Where is she!?!” and panicking at the thought that even moving to search for her could potentially be fatal. The utter relief of identifying the moving speck on the ground

As for bug-sized woman being mistaken for insects, I could see it happening under some circumstances, as our brains would probably go for Occam’s Razor : it’s just a strange bug. It depends on a lot of factors, for instance if she’s wearing clothes (and what colour they are), the speed at which she’s moving, the context (ie. is she on the ground outside, or on an office desk, etc). I used to think “no way I could mistake her for a bug” but VR showed me otherwise and now I’m not so sure

@miss-lillipants Nice, I figured it was something like that, but you can’t stop my G/t-rotted brain from seeing sizey stuff 24/7.

@BTbutcher said in Re-Homed:

It’s funny how the photo manips that take the least amount of editing usually turn out the best

Also true for my own work, I’ve noticed! Some I’ve spent hours tweaking manually are barely noticed, while others I just threw out there haphazardly got all the praise.

@blehb said in What are your favorite clothing items for giants/tinies?:

@foreverlurk If it’s cold outside, without the proper clothing she won’t want to leave. I know the tricks you all play!

We’re really that predictable, uh? Glad to see your wits didn’t shrink with the rest of ya!

While I stand that my statement that makeshift clothes melts my heart, I don’t think SW two inches tall or under should even concern themselves with clothing. They’re too tiny to be properly seen, and so small they shouldn’t venture outside or anywhere it’s too cold. Besides, I imagine any materials would feel rough and uncomfortable at that size.

@SmolChlo Thank you for sharing your experience. Yes, I think you’re right - if I want to understand myself, I can’t be serious about this and not bring up the fetish. I’ve always thought there was no real explanation to its origins. I’m not so sure anymore. Perhaps I’m just afraid of what I’ll find.

I can’t explain why it amplifies my feelings of solitude and melancholia. Paradoxically, indulging in sizey stories, comics, or videos is also the biggest dopamine (and sexual) rush I can experience. “What nourishes me, destroys me.”

@SmolChlo said in Luxurious Enclosures:

I learned the hard way that not all miniaturists are macrophiles oh well, at least they learned day 1 that I’m actually 4”

Oh… is there a story you’d be willing to share here

@SmolChlo said in What are your favorite clothing items for giants/tinies?:

or naked with a collar

Okay I was too self-conscious to say it myself, but yeah

@Olo said in Depression and Size Kink:

and men suffer the most from this lack. To customize the meme, “Men will literally shrink themselves to the size of a mouse and beg women to step on them rather than go to therapy.”

Ain’t that the truth?! I fully admit that I’m guilty of this as well. I think there has been rapid changes to that perception amongst males in the past decade or two, but it took everything (and hitting the wall) for me to seek help and get in therapy. I even admitted to my therapist I almost didn’t show up.

@Nyx Now that you mention it, I can see how it can really go both ways - fear vs eagerness.

For the record, I did prompt for an “eager” tiny, wanting to be picked up. Oh and that heart-shaped light on the floor was also prompted, amazing that the AI understood what I meant.
