hi long time no post!!! i've started working on a pronoun puns series that i've been putting up on redbubble, starting with some he/him/hiss designs that i'd been wanting to make for a While and finally decided to start on in honor of my pet hissing roach who passed away recently. i wanted to make some art of him and figured now's as good a time as any to get into this series
i'm taking recommendations for pun/creature combos!! i've got a few in mind for some other pronoun sets already but additional input is welcome <3
hissing roach design | ball python design | cat design

Madagascar Hissing Cockroach - Gromphadorhina portentosa
With this set of insect images, all pictures from the ROM for the year 2023 are proudly displayed on this blog for you to enjoy. I've already gone at length discussing these feisty beans and their habits, behaviors and routines. While many onlookers may not see these armored insects as appealing, I take great joy knowing the role that they play within their own ecosystems and the opportunities they provide for eager minds to learn (about nature and science), whether as pets or in exhibits. If you're not a Roach fan, it's worth remembering that it could be worse. Since this specie lacks wings, it can't suddenly startle you by becoming airborne and (unintentionally) buzzing towards you...and then subsequently slam on their terrarium's glass. They can run rather quickly, however! Nevertheless, there are many more exhibits to enjoy at the ROM if looking at exotic Roaches (and other arthropods) isn't your idea of a good time.
Having visited the ROM's "Natural World" exhibit many times before, it would be a great benefit to have additional information displayed regarding these curious insects. Although simple, there's so much to learn about them, and many myths that could be dispelled so as to not treat all Roaches as "dirty insects" (admittedly this specie does consume debris and rotting material as they are decomposers by nature). Decomposers play crucial roles within their ecosystems, and it would do well to remind people that forests, parks and jungles are born not just from their plant-life, but also the material that is broken down to sustain them. An interactive series of hissing samples would provide a lot of insight. Specifically for how these Roaches interact and communicate with each other and any other creatures they encounter. Recordings would suffice, even if hearing it live is more authentic, but in a carefully curated environment such as this one, agitating the exhibit denizens for spectacle isn't a good idea. Besides, a sudden hiss from such a small creature is quite startling the first time, especially if you're not expecting it. You may prod, but it's up to the Cockroach to determine how aggressively it will press air from its spiracles to spook you.
Pictures were taken on December 19, 2023 with a Google Pixel 4. Please go and visit the bugs.

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of Roachelle, everyone’s favorite cockroach. She was a good insect, even if she did make me a single grandmother of 30 with no warning.
Rest in peace little lady. 💚

if you don’t share your leftover deviled eggs with your pet roaches then why would you even have them at all
