Anyone else hear “bone apple teeth” and just think of The Magnus Archives? I just can’t hear it as “bon appetite” so it took me forever to actually know it wasn’t a giant TMA refrence. I can only think of my Fear homosexuals

As an artist how do you make pokemon crossbreeds? since I am thinking about making some.
Thanks for asking! I'd love an excuse to talk about the process.
1. I find the pokemon I want to make a crossbreed of. I have a full Google docs list to keep track of names and ones I want to do and all of that, since a lot of the fun for me I'd coming up with names for them
2. 99% of the time, the art is traced. I used to draw earlier crossbreeds freely, but they were supposed to be quick design practice and I would end up spending too long on them, so I started tracing them
3. I love crossbreed art, and while I don't want to throw anyone under the bus, I always felt like a lot of the crossbreeds felt "too-fusion like." What I try my best to do is find small traits to fit in with the existing design, while not changing it too much. While I sometimes let go of that for the sake of fun (when I made the slurpuff and raochu crossbreed), I usually keep that ruleset. An example would be this Cadenza Lapras (primarina father)
Tumblr media
Lapras already has spikes, so to make it look more like Primarina, I made them sharper, like the spikes on Primarina's tail. It also has a more pointed snout, like Primarina.
And this sprinting scorbunny too (yamper father). While a dog and rabbit aren't that similar, both yamper and scorbunny have the same yellow, pointed ears, eyes, and other similar features. So, I made the scorbunny's fluff connect like yamper, gave it the paw markings of yamper, turned its tail into that of yamper, and made it stick its tongue out like yamper.
Tumblr media
I recommend keeping the color scheme similar, but that can be difficult when they have wildly different color schemes. What I try to do then to make up for it is add more traits of the father pokemon, so whole it looks similar at first glance, you can tell it's different. I did that with Clanging Noivern (jangmo-o father)
Tumblr media
If the pokemon seems too different, they finding smaller traits to use. Right now, I'm making a Gastrodon with a Phantump father and they seemed hard, but I was able to find similar traits; such as the wisps in the designs and making their shell look like a tree a bit.
4. Other than that, process follows art stuff. Sketch over the official art to add differing traits, and then outline it in black. My outlines are messy since again, these are more breaks for my other art (I have an Instagram where I post some of my art btw, I don't post much art on my main tumblr), but outline whatever way you want
5. Do what you want! These are just the rules I follow that I made for myself! These are just supposed to be fun stuff and shouldn't be polices
6. Send me the crossbreeds. I want to see them
7. Hope these helped! I'm not the best at explaining my art process

Kayne fascinates me sm oh my god. Anyways throwing out my analysis and also headcanons, some stolen from @mofsblog onto the floor to be perceived
Hes often bored and uses ppl as entertainment, with arthur being the current most interesting thing in his life. This makes him obsessed with arthur bc theres finally smth new and interesting and he needs to keep that intrigue going as long as possible, however he also doesnt care arthur or his life bc hes still replaceable. Hes another actor who can always have an understudy play his part
I want to know why hes the first to kill all the nyarlathoteps. Did the others try as well but only he was the one who came out on top? Or did he start it bc hes always seeing how far he can push the limits of what hes allowed to do
Hes immortal, hes seen everything. He wants smth new, so he will desperately seek it out. Other nyarlathoteps knew what and where the black stone is. Why doesnt he? Why could some of him be trusted with that info, but he could not?
Anyways the darkness in lovecrafts work is his sibling and Lilith is his daughter, also in lovecrafts work he prefers madness to violence (smth smth madness is prolonged + more interesting then one fun thing that ends too fast) and is very loyal to his dad despite disliking him. Idk man I need to go back to sleep, however. Guys. Kayne angst. This is what I am proposing

Video
My dogs are the same but they all love it. Obviously not days where the ear infection is bad but it’s been great for a while. Two of my dogs need it and my boy sits perfectly, even tilted his head a little for easier access and LOVES the ear rubs. The other one just sits still, she doesn’t even tilt her head but the ear rubs she can’t get enough.
Then my other one
She doesn’t come begging for ear rubs
She sits from a distance and stares at you, a bone soaking in sweat kind of glare that you would feel in your blood line for generations.
Then you go over and rub her ears and she decides it’s time for a nap
One dog has ear medicine she needs and the other one also thinks he needs it too

I miss this SpongeBob. Even in seasons 1-3, I still hated Krabs (I know it’s kind of the point to make him a mean greedy boss but still. And I hate him more in post movie 1 seasons), and it felt SO GOOD to have one of the people who’s always looked up to him and does whatever he asks, call him out on his bull.
I’m not saying that SpongeBob doesn’t get angry in the newer seasons (at least the ones I’ve seen—basically the post movie 1 seasons), but when he does it’s for a dumb reason (A Pal for Gary for instance because holy damn he made me mad there). Like Sponge is naive but he isn’t stupid, so even he has his breaking points and will call out anyone who walks all over him.

Okay I just read the Joker's Asylum Scarecrow story and really loved it, aside from one or two problems. Great Scarecrow dialogue, and it tackles a theme with him I LOOOOVE.
But I also especially love how in the story he's projecting himself onto a bullied teenage girl. Like huhhh why's that Jonathan? Perhaps you were at some point also a bullied teenage girl? 🤨🏳️‍⚧️

Darnell/Pico x Latina!Reader
(Separate)
A/n: uhh I’m Latina soo. Also I rlly like this one, it was fun to write. Idk what to say here so ya
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Darnell:
Bro this man CANNOT get enough of ur food
Every time you bring him some or you invite him to one of your parties he’s always fucking that shit UP
Literally just
Tumblr media
“Do you two need a room?”
“Hmf?” (Huh?)
“You and the tamale.”
“Mm.. mof” (oh.. no)
He has good spice tolerance, so he loves all the food
He’s also does.. okay in Spanish. He took a few spanish classes in highschool so talking to ur family isn’t much of a problem
But some things are too complicated for him, like when you invited him to one of your gatherings your tia came up to him and gave him a headache
“Hola! Mira como guapo es su novio!! Si hablas español?”
“..uh huh”
Save him pls
Sometimes when getting into arguments you use Spanglish against him and he tries too but fails
“Donde estabas? I was so worried!”
“Relax baby eso no es my fault!!”
He failed that Spanish class take it easy on him
When you two were in highschool, he loved doodling on your hand (cuz he’s an graffitist) because of your tan skin (if you have it)
He always used warm toned colors while spelling something like ‘y/n’ on your hand in graffiti letters
But sometimes he loves the doodle way too much to give up on it, so he would use it as a reference for another project at an alleyway
“How long do I have to hold my hand up like this?”
“Just ten more minutes babe, gotta catch that aspect”
“sigh que pendejo..”
Pico:
He would actually die for you
Pico is into the whole ‘I <3 Latinas’ thing so when he asked you out and you said yes he died
Pico STRONGLY believes ur the most beautiful creature on the planet
Now since pico is.. ✋🏻 spicy food isn’t his strong suit
He’ll try his best but all he’s gonna do is hurt himself
“Amor, you good?”
“Cough cough yeah it’s just a little cough hot!”
“Pico, it’s a taki..”
He’s mostly a fan of the candy your culture has to offer, he gets so excited when you bring him a pelon pelo
Now pico doesn’t know jack SHIT about Spanish
So when you invited him to one of your family gatherings he was so confused
“Mira, es la novio de y/n! Tienes hambre, mijo?”
“Huh”
He def tries, he’ll point to something and ask you abt it
“This is doo-si, right?” 😊(He’s trying to say dulce)
“….mhm!!”
He also likes you give you Spanish nicknames, ‘mamas’ is already his default but he also likes to throw ‘mi amor’s and ‘mi vida’s in there too
Pico (even without you) is really into Spanish rock, idk I just think it fits his vibe
Your younger cousins really like nagging him about you
“How’d you meet her? Is she nice to you? Will you be my boyfriend?”
“Y/n I think you have some competition..”
“She better not tf”

pigeon-behavior ¡ 2 months ago

What are some things to look for with accounts that post a lot about their pet pigeon? Like what can I look for to be sure the pigeon is being treated properly and not being abused/stressed for views? What are common questionable things you see accounts like those doing?
That is a REALLY good question, thanks for asking!
My take here probably won't be comprehensive, but I will at least try to give you a starting point to go off of.
Here are some red flags in pigeon social media content:
1. They have cross species content. A pigeon should not be interacting with any other species besides people on video. Nor in real life, honestly, but we're talking social media crimes. No other birds- not even ringnecks- and CERTAINLY no mammals. It's dangerous.
2. This can be a little tricky for the less experienced, but watching how someone interacts with their pigeon is key. Do they force interaction? Do they respect their bird? Is this light-hearted teasing that the bird doesn't mind, or are you looking at a freaked out animal? Or a freeze response? If you're not sure, ask around for opinions you trust on behavior. Sometimes it is the only way to make learning leaps.
3. Stupid decision making. You will probably know it when you see it. Bringing a pigeon outside with no harness. Talking about the freedom of birds and how they need to free fly outside. If it Seems like hawk bait, it probably is. (I don't mean that they do this on purpose, they don't. They are are in utter denial about deaths by hawk and their ability to prevent them by simply keeping their birds contained)
4. This one depends, but if you ever see content of a pigeon being held so that the general public can pet it without it being able to get away - usually a bad sign. I saw this connected to a very small rescue once and it was pretty appalling. These are touch adverse animals - you can't do that. And on that note-
5. Any form of advocating for 'struggle-cuddling', or holding the animal still until it stops fighting you, is a HUGE no. It is one of the fastest ways to learned helplessness, and also for some reason rampant advice in this fucking community. I'm bitter about it, obviously.
6. They shit on all breeding. It's not necessarily a sign of neglect but trust me, these are not people you want to be around.
Now, some GOOD things to look out for:
1. Excellent housing. You want to see a wider-than-tall space with a lot of solid perches not caked in 3 inches of gray-green cemented poop. Poop happens. They are birds. It gets dirty. But the cement is neglect. That took time.
2. They interact with their birds respectfully. Even if they might get a little silly with them, you won't see these birds getting squirrely and shying away. Consent does matter here.
3. They have primarily ethical breeds. The range of ethical is pretty wide here. But something like an extreme modena or extreme MOF (modern old frill, NOT the same as the classic old frill) might still show up in a regular loft, and that's okay. They need a home.
4. If they breed, they have some kind of plan. You might not even see it, but occasionally breeders will talk about what they want to do with their breeding project. And their plan shouldn't be fucking stupid. TRLs plan? Stupid. That isn't how breeding Works. So, someone with a brain in their head about this stuff.
5. Someone who is willing to euthanize an animal. Making a creature continue suffering through amputations or other surgeries that are too extreme for it... It isn't ethical. A pigeon can't survive long term with only one leg. We know this. Anyone who is trying to pretend differently is perpetuating suffering.
6. Someone who socializes any baby pigeons properly. That means no hand-raising, no people imprinting. Parent raising. Socialization techniques vary and most are valid.
7. Care more about the bird than the content they make. The bird shouldn't be a toy they force into situations for views.
Generally, just try to pay attention. Don't be afraid to ask someone you trust about what they think of an account. It can be hard to break out of the little echo chambers that start to form, but thinking critically about stuff like that will absolutely help you in the long term. Exposing yourself to better information and cutting off the bad stuff will advance you a lot farther.
A real quick body language lesson for you, on how to tell if a pigeon is comfortable.
A pigeon frozen in place, refusing to move, is not a happy pigeon. Their eyes may get wide and tight, their posture may be slightly tucked in and hunched. It can be easy to mistake them as a little sleepy if you don't know what to look for.
Sleepy don't look like that. Sleepy is loose posture, puffy feathers, squinty eyes, fluffy forehead, raised foot. Some or all of these.
Another sign of discomfort is more active defense. It might look like display dancing, but this bird is telling you to fuck off. They tend to dance and hop around more trying to avoid you, their necks will be stretched out really tall, their heads will dart around, they will interrupt themselves mid-coo to run away.
These are birds who are confident enough to tell you to go away, but still freaked out. I saw a video from a prominent rescue last week of such behavior where someone was "playing" with this poor guy who was totally boxed into his rescue crate with nowhere to go.
Pigeons need an exit route during intense interactions with us. You can't box them into a corner so they have nowhere to go.
A pigeon that WANTS to wrestle or what have you will not flinch away from you like this, or freeze like a rabbit. If you are wrestling and you pull your hand away, the pigeon should run up to your hand again if you offer it from a distance. If you are petting the pigeon, the pigeon should lean their head down, or groan, or nesty grunt, or puff their feathers up, or try to preen you!
This got a little long, but I genuinely hope that was helpful to you. And again, great question.
If you like my posts, please consider tipping me on ko-fi!

Hetalia characters as tweets but half of my twitter tl is in german so I attempted to translate it with my mediocre german abilities
Tumblr media
(Besserwessi literally would translate to “better westerner” but it’s a play on the term “besserwisser” (know it all) used by East Germans to talk about West Germans who are arrogant and condescending towards East Germans, especially when discussing economics or politics)
Tumblr media
(“Mof” is a Dutch derogatory term for Germans, mostly used after wwii, and I don’t speak Dutch so other than that this is according to google translate)

I felt obligated to do these last two bc of the meme

(COUNT)DOWN TO DAWNTRAIL FREE DAY ・*☆
When I made the (Count)Down to Dawntrail challenge, the one thing I was most excited for was the Free Day. I had specifically stated one of the options you could do for this day was to talk about how the people you met through XIV and how they made a positive impact on your life, and that was what I was going to do.
For me, when I started doing my question drives however long ago, I was committed to being the change I wanted to see in the world. While the XIV community is a cut above the rest in that people are genuinely interested in other oc's, ships and work(s), I have been in communities where that's not the case, and I know the sensation of feeling like you are putting your work out there, putting your work out there and putting your work out there... and it feels like no one is interested.
Equally, I have also felt the cut of anxiety as it goes, 'I really want to interact with this person, but what if they think I'm weird? What if they take it the wrong way?'
—So what if they think I'm weird?
That was kind of my whole mantra. I was going to make as genuine effort as I could muster to interact with the community, send asks to people and to try and learn/remember as much as I could. I wanted people to feel like someone was reading their work and confident to reach out to people they were interested in getting to know.
If someone wanted to take a bad-faith interpretation of my work, so what? So what if they think I'm weird; so what if they don't like me? Nothing I could do was ever going to change their mind, so why should I worry about an insignificant possibility that wasn't going to affect me beyond a block and a funny story to tell my friends? And if that small risk was going to earn me more friends with whom I could share more funny stories with... isn't the risk worth it? Be kind, take no shit; the same mantra I have carried with me since 2023.
Not only that, but if I could inspire other people to reach out and interact too, wouldn't that be amazing? I think we're all conditioned online to be afraid of being 'too much'; too weird, too forward, too outgoing. We all want interaction but are afraid to interact in case its misinterpreted. That sucks. In my mind, if I interacted—if I even showed other people who would respond to their efforts positively—and they reached out behind me, that was worth it.
Cultivating that kind of community is always worth it.
It's been a very healing journey for me, honestly. I've come out of my shell a lot, dispelling my own anxieties and coming to grips with my traumas that were honestly the result of just bad happenstance and the fact I was young—rather than me doing anything obscenely wrong. I have met lots of wonderful people, read so many interesting stories and learned so much about a myriad of fascinating WoL's (and regular ocs!). I've also met people who are interested in my work, even if I tend to showcase it a lot less.
So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Thank you for supporting me with the Compendium. Thank you for enthusiastically replying to my asks. Thank you for supporting me with (Count)Down to Dawntrail. Thank you for setting aside a little space for me in your day, because none of these projects would have a hope of working without the support of the community. That's the honest truth.
Before I go, I'd like to extend a couple of personal thanks:
—To SEAFLOOR (Tumblr Community & Discord): thank you for your constant support for my projects. A huge thank you to everyone in the discord with the social role who just wanted to hang out and be friends. I am honoured to have fostered a healthy, vibrant community full of wonderful people who uplift, support and help each other. Running this space hasn't once felt like a burden and that is entirely a credit to your maturity, kindness and accommodations. Thank you. Sdmin and mof are warm in my heart.
—To Firelight Trading Company (and associates): my best pals, I love you! Thank you for always being by my side. Thank you for all the laughs, the endless shenanigans and your unwavering support with The Fireside and the Parlour. Without you, none of my stories would be where they are. Thank you for making my life (and my roleplay) richer. You all mean the world to me, really. Even if you are little shits.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
—To Pepper, the platonic love of my life: I love you. This goes without saying. Thank you for being my best friend for all these years. Thank you for being a grounding force and support, even if you're an introvert riding the coattails of a sadistic extrovert who loves thrusting you into 'situations'. I'd like to sum up our friendship with two images that articulate who we are as people.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay, okay. I lied (kinda). Here's the real one.
Tumblr media
—To anyone who has ever liked a post of mine, made a nice comment, tagged me in a dash game, went to the Fireside, etc. etc: know you hold a special place in my heart. I really, really mean it. I am god-awful at sincerity, but I hope it reaches you all the same.
With that, however, onwards—to Tural!
