best part about the whole “the Chinese government is filling their zoos with guys dressed like bears” thing is, as soon as I saw the headline this morning, I went “hah bet it’s a sun bear” and I was not disappointed
#people need to know how weird sun bears are#I was an animal-obsessed child#and I thought sun bears were the UGLIEST animal ever#I think it’s because of how uncanny they are?#anyway showed my roommates a bunch of sun bear pictures tonight#and they were horrified

Been slowly learning ASL over the years for my niece and I might still struggle to introduce myself or express basic emotions, but oh boy do I ever have the sign for every animal she's ever laid eyes on memorized better than my own name.
#there's no study partner quite like a toddler who loves playing pretend#I'll be watching a video where Bill Vicars is finger-spelling at the pace of molasses and I'll be completely lost#but with my niece though?#she'll sign “DINOSAUR!!!!” and I'll say “ON IT CHIEF” and bolt to pull up an animation i made of Twig + Kip that she's obsessed with#You haven't lived until you ask a small child what animal she's pretending to be while she's racing around the room#and she freezes in place#turns to you with the most solemn expression#and gravely puts up her chubby little hands to inform you that she's a monkey#then goes back to laughing her head off as she runs laps around the couch#american sign language#sign language#asl#sofie says stuff

What he says: I'm fine
What he's thinking: A common criticism of Treasure Planet is saying Morph is just there for marketable purposes, but the existence of Morph, and Silver's explanation as to why he has him, implies that Silver is a smol lil guy hoarder and no one is surprised when he starts getting attached to Jim because it's completely in character for him to get emotionally attached to weaker creatures despite his tough guy persona. He's worried the crew will disown him for this weak spot but by now they just roll their eyes because oh look, the captain has a new hyperfixation, wonder how long it'll take for this one to join the collection. Anyway in this essay I will--
#Silver in the modern world would absolutely hoard chihuahuas and you know it#“Scroop I am not obsessed”#“you have a problem”#“no--”#“captain you alwaysss hoard little animals you're fooling no one”#“I'm tough”#“I know captain”#the fact Scroop is less interested in the fact he's gotten attached to Jim#and more about the fact his attachment to Jim might disrupt their plans#it just convinces me this is not the first time this has happened#maybe the first time he's adopted a child though#treasure planet#disney#john silver#jim hawkins#morph#mr scroop

gnome culture emphasizes playfulness and a good sense of humor partly because gnomes are physically small and vulnerable and tend to settle in wild places with a lot of hazards and if they had to take every completely real threat to their safety seriously while also Taking Them Seriously they'd just be paralyzed by fear
#take it easy but take it#good and healthy to be afraid sometimes but you gotta learn to laugh about it too or you're gonna implode#turning this over in my mind with the half-cooked concept I was thinking about the other day#about a gnomish (philosophy? saying? entire parable?) about how the More you live the closer you are to death#not as a cautionary tale against doing stuff but as a cautionary tale against avoiding danger at any cost#the world is too full of risk for a gnome to live like that! if you're not taking any risks you're not really living!!#you learn riddles and practical jokes and illusions and trickery because you'll need those skills to survive#and you're going to remember them and get good at them and not become obsessed about catastrophizing over them because they're FUN#the world isn't full of Terrible Dangers to Fear the world is full of THRILLING CHALLENGES that YOU can be clever enough to overcome!!#you're going to cheat death again and again so that when she finally catches you you giggle like a child and say 'good game!'#gnome stuff#worldbuilding#felix insp#idri insp#melliwyk insp#<- this applies to mel the least because the Culture is still there for her but she grew up in a very arcane modernized city#like in a gnomish neighborhood of a bigger integrated/ human city#so the survival value of this was less a factor for her#than for my blorbos who had to grow up with the extremely real possibility of getting eaten by wild animals

The bad batch is an amazing show and here is my proof:
It has accomplished the highly unlikely but let’s be honest it doesn’t take much for me to care about stuff impossible!!
It has made me care about Sheev’s dumbass return in The Rise of Skywalker
#until this show i’ve just been living in denial about that movie#my thoughts were just ‘stop making another super secret project for paply boy he already has the death star’#but now that i am completely obsessed with Omega#i am so invested in this plot#who would’ve guessed#that a small child with the biggest heart who’s an absolute bad ass would get me to care about a plot I hate#i mean i probably would’ve guessed literally all it ever takes for me to care about a plot is a character I love#anyways yeah i’m not ready to say goodbye to this show#it means too much to me#star wars#the bad batch#the rise of skywalker#star wars animation#project necromancer#sheev palpatine#emperor palpatine#tbb omega#the clone wars#the bad batch season 3#kate's post

I love Horse Girl Lae'zel with all my heart, but also consider: modern AU Lae'zel is obsessed with birds of prey and falconry.
#Voss is the grumpy old eagle falconer who reluctantly agrees to train her#she can be obsessed with horses too#it is possible to hyperfixate on many different animal species at once#source: I was that child (and am that adult)#this is all part of my secret “more falconry AUs in fandom” agenda#Lae'zel#bg3

A few little sketches of some possible school uniforms for mage schools/learning centers for magic/etc. :0c Though because Nanyevimi is so scattered and disconnected, it'd actually vary much more by region (like not everywhere would have a cultural concept of what a suit jacket or neck tie looks like lol), so it's probably unrealistic for so many of them to follow too many traditional Uniform Conventions from cultures in our world, etc. But, still, fun to mess around with designs, and think about which would be most fun to wear/what school you'd go to just based off the clothing lol~
#I haven't felt well enough to do anything actually productive lately GRRRR.. evil health issues....#but I can sometimes at least draw while I lay on the floor with a heating pad and etc. lol.. so...#goofy little sketches. Still dislike that the ipad thing someone gave me is either like.. maybe the settings are just off OR possibly the#screen is slightly broken in some regard - so the pressure sensitivity does not work at all. thus all lines are blunt looking#instead of having tapered edges. which I KNOW can be a stylistic thing. like I think it's fine mostly#but sometimes shading looks weird for all of the lines to be the exact same size/width with like no variation lol#though since it's just little sketches it doesnt matter lol but still... hrmm... ever working out my strategy for how to use the ipad for a#art things/if I can ever get used to it/etc.#AAANYWAY... still so uniform obsessed.. and have been since I was a child. Like way before going to middle school and meeting#the people who like anime and get into school uniforms of that variety. I mean like... age 7 before even having any friends#and having zero popular media interests or outside influences that would make uniforms Trendy. but I would see like a 'private school#uniform' on a new story on tv or something or in a book and was just like OUGH... I Should Dress That Way#I used to go to thrift stores and find multiple seperate pieces that could be combined together to look like a school uniform#I had like 4 or 5 different 'uniforms' that I made myself in that way. My first outfit that I was ever allowed#to pick out for myself as my big First Day Of Middle School outfit was literally like school uniform inspired#(maybe mixed with a little goth.. like it was a school uniform sort of look but black and white with fishnet armwarmers lol.. plaid +#stripes pattern mixing my beloved... )#I think it's just the same way that I love apartment buildings because I'm infinitely fascinated with like.. observing human nature and peo#le displaying their psersonalities in little ways and how you can give 10 people the same exact identical space but each one will decorate#it completely differently just depending on their own tastes and reasonnig and etc. I love the idea of everyone in some setting#having to be in one specific set outfit BUT you can tell something about them by the little ways they customize it or what type#of accessories they wear or if they choose to button their shirt fully or not or etc. etc. I like the constraints of 'okay everyone has to#be in exactly the same uniform - NOW. give them their own unique style somehow despite this' etc. etc. like#yaaaayyyy.. I love thinking of little obscure details that convey personality. they have a little pin hidden on the inside of their#hat. their shoes are just like everyone else's but more worn out. they have a necklace barely visible beneath their collar. their tie is#always a little more askew that everyone elses. or even. the uniform is EXACTLY on model entirely clean crisp pristine not a single element#customized or out of place - which STILL tells you something about them. etc. etc.#ANYWAY.. yeahg.. struggling to get anything done these last few weeks so.. blam. poof. alakazaam. scratchy little sketches#of nothing very productive or relating to any other project in particular be upon ye

sharing my old old old Animal Jam art I made in Middle school
back when I was a wee lass
it was a "Alpha's disappeared so Jammers prepare for War and learn war strategy" AU...
... okay so nothing changed about me I am just the same rat bastard hyper-focused on the same idea but different flavors.
You know how many AUs I got? *slams down multiple pages of paper onto desk* Okay let's go through these written documents.
I got "Phantom Alphas AU" where jammers were kidnapped and made into bizarro opposite versions of the current alphas with opposite species.
"Alpha's Successors AU" where my self-insert oc is Greely's apprentice and learning to take over when the Alphas leave. What the fuck was going on with my young ass self-
"Pokemon mystery dungeon but animal jam-" yeah no I'm still working on that. Redesigning and reworking the main duo. One of them is now dramatic opossum.
#ajmd#animal jam mystery dungeon#animal jam#jamblr#rambles#oh my god my child self had so many self-indulgent art and writings I will never actually share but damn#I am proud of myself for actually being this obsessed and remaining obsessed for so long#good on you. young kit#good on ya#traditonal art#old art#my artwork

Do all the people complaining that Zuko’s scar in the Netflix live action adaptation of Avatar “isn’t gorey enough” realize that how it looks in said live action is legitimately how real burn scars look after having about three years to heal
#Ive done actual extensive research on it#Burn scars “mature” after about a year and from there they start fading and smoothing out#Zuko’s scar legitimately looks realistic#Burns aren’t super gorey once they’ve scarred#It also appears to be more handprint shaped which. I love so much?#Give me that symbolism im obsessed#And to add another quick thing it’s entirely realistic he has an eyebrow too#If the hair follicle wasn’t damaged his eyebrow could easily regrow#ALSO in the animation they’re obviously gonna exaggerate how horrible the burn looks to make Ozai seem more evil for burning his child#Zuko’s scar looks fine please stop complaining about a show that hasn’t come out yet#Why are people allergic to enjoying things anymore#avatar the last airbender#natla#netflix avatar#prince zuko#Researching burn scars is actually super interesting i suggest you do if you can

Crepus definitely taught young Diluc and Kaeya to show care and respect towards animals. I like to think he fed strays and sheltered them when it was particularly cold or rainy. I don't think he'd go out of his way to track down every stray animal and check up on them regularly (like Thoma) but would extend his caring hand if a situation requiring it occurred.
Diluc and Kaeya both grew up taking those values on board. They'd find lost or injured animals in the forest while playing and would scoop them up and run back to the mansion quickly to tend to them. They rarely ever kept them for longer than they strictly needed to stay there (the maids had enough work with two little knights-in-training). Strays would be rehomed to people they knew and wild animals would be treated and returned to their natural habitats, even if it did sometimes make the boys sad to see them go.
I think they exercise this learned value. They both love animals!
Diluc developed a fascination for birds in his teenage years, and only cultivated it further over his travels, realising just how useful a bird of prey really is. He takes special care of any and all birds he finds, and has even constructed an aviary for the ones that can't be returned to their original homes.
Kaeya has taken to the smaller mammals, like cats and dogs. He believes they possess an intelligence far superior to most humans, able to read people's natures and intentions. He's taken quite a lot of animals into his home over the years, and, more often than not, they come back, so he ends up sleeping with a bunch of cats and dogs curled up around him.
At the end of the day, no matter what the animal, they all seem to have a natural affinity for both Diluc and Kaeya, and they naturally just have to give them the love, care and fuss they deserve.
#i like thinking about the boys with animals#i think they'd both follow in crepus' footsteps#crepus is smiling at his boys from celestia#just imagine Kaeya with a cat on his shoulder and a dog at his feet#and Diluc with several birds comfortably nestled in his hair#they're disney princesses fr#they're also both horse girls.#like come on.. how are you going to be a cavalry captain and NOT be obsessed with all things horses#and that random turtle diluc had as a child? yeah that turtle was absolutely adored and bought up in every conversation (bragging rights)#ragbros#kaeya alberich#kaeya#diluc#diluc ragnvindr#my personal stash of kaeya#my personal stash of diluc#my personal stash of ragbros

begging the good people of Tumblr for batman content recommendations🙏🙏 im not really into the typical superhero stuff but I watched a batman movie for the first time 3 days ago and have become obsessed with the characters and their relationships
(I've already watched The Batman, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, and the 1989 Batman. im about 3/4 of the way through the animated series and plan to watch the New Batman Adventures next but I need more. Also interested in all of the Robins and any character- focused stuff. Very interested in the comics too but cant afford to buy and feel bad about pirating art-based mediums)
#batman#batman movies#batman animated series#begging for recommendations like a small victorian child#this whole obsession started with an argument under a tweet i made about the gotham fyp trend#it was about whether or not The Batman was a good movie#NO ONE bothered to tell me that catwoman is incredibly hot and worth watching the entire thing for#im going insane#these guys are eating my brain#bruce wayne#the man that you are#hes so bbg#and hes so bitchy sometimes i adore him#alfred is the og though#animated series really pulled through making him so cunty#enough yapping sorry im sleep deprived because i've done nothing but consume batman content
