How does one get a Golden-rumped Elephant Shrew to wear pants that show off its golden rump?

The golden-rumped elephant shrew (Rhynchocyon chrysopygus) is a fascinating and unique mammal native to the coastal forests of Kenya. Known for its striking golden-colored rump, this small, insectivorous mammal is not only a biological marvel but also a potential candidate for whimsical imaginings—such as getting it to wear pants that accentuate its distinctive golden rump. While this idea is…

I wanted to try my hand at animation and decided some scribbly walk and run cycles would be a fun way to do it. I’ve always liked to imagine that, based on Soundwave’s body structure and the fact that he’s already a delightfully eldritch cryptid of a Cybertronian, he could walk and run on all fours with ease.

Ollie...BUT CAT!!

i do like to give him lion vibes every now n then esp cause his tusks remind me of when lions do the mouth breathe thing where you can only see their bottom teeth :]

I'm absolutely in love with how Gwen's universe is portrayed. How during the emotional parts the background seems to fade into these streaks and drips of paint. How sometimes Gwen herself is a stark blue to the otherwise bright and warm cityscape.

oh no

help me, the little smile she drops this absolute bombshell of a line with is just----

i'm about to lose my goddamn mind over another character, just look at her little face

"you know, I've like zero memories of my past or of who i am besides this one incredibly specific and deep-seated desire- nay, religious conviction that i know i've held for years and years, but tbh...? i just made out with a cute boy. twice, even. don't quote me on this, but i think this may just be what thriving feels like."

girl, i'm begging you to please raise your standards for what a life-changing experience is like. maybe just by a smidge. girl the bar is on the floor, and he's just barely not tripping over it. girl he had to pass a survival check to even just find the bar.

i love it when people say that Warframe has comedy because they are completely right. i just saw my horrific abomination of three mutated humans fused together slap their own head because it twitched too hard

So, in honor of AO3 going live again, and in recognition of @magicalgirlmindcrank being bold enough to post her very good story publicly, I'm going to post my own fics where people may peruse at their leisure. (Links aren't embedding right for some reason? Sorry)

L'Art et L'Artifice

When giant plant aliens invade in the middle of a heist, Geneviève Diamant, aka the infamous thief La Grenouille, finds herself caught in the act.

Rhapsody in Green

Millie has lived in an isolated life-pod her entire life. She is treated little better than an unintelligent AI by most humans, and is currently serving as a science vessel's navigation computer. What happens when the one human that treats her like a person turns her and the rest of the ship over to the giant plant aliens?

These are both set in the Human Domestication Guide setting, where giant, benevolent, plant aliens conquer humanity for their own good and make the belligerent ones into happy adorable pets.
