Happy International Earth Day (today) along with some wicked frog images of the rarely seen tiny frog species Crinia sloani and the moderately well-known Limnodynastes fletcheri, both with quite specific habitat requirements in the face of similar species in the same genera that are more broad ranging.

Images taken from the field in far north Victoria.

I want to write a fic about Alastor teaching the Reader how to take care of her natural hair but there's no way I can write that fic without basically almost outright saying Reader is or is not a certain race or has a specific hair texture but, I've been learning more on how to take care of my natural hair and, it's just been a very intimate personal process with even a little bit of trauma involved and I keep thinking of Alastor as a comfort character for it, oddly enough

There's some big shenanigans where you get splashed and get wet and Alastor notices your hair starting to get a little bit of a curl to it but you just huff and start brushing it out, not reacting as there's the sounds of your hair literally ripping as the brush tears through tangles. Over time he realizes your hair always looks very, off, brushed out, flat, damaged, just, not right. You never DO anything with it besides brush it and put it up either

Can you even imagine he does the thing where he transforms everyone's outfits and you catch your reflection and you're turning to him, "why did you style my hair like this?" And he's just genuinely like "???? That's just your natural hair???" And gives you this very, 'oh honey' look as you turn back to your reflection and are staring at yourself like you're seeing a completely different person, clearly confused by your own hair looking as it's supposed to

So many curly and wavy hair products smell so good too... the coconut oil, jojoba, shea butter, some of these deep conditioners and hair masks are just 🤌 smells so good, and the intimacy of him washing your hair, combing his fingers through it, nails gently grazing your scalp, styling your hair around a brush as he tells you of how his mother once taught him to take care of his hair. did you not have anyone? No? Shame, but at least you have him now

Alastor becoming very attached to you after this whole thing and the end result is that he has you eventually sleeping beside him, satin pillowcase hair covering and all. He won't even take you to a hairstylist anymore; he prefers doing your hair completely by himself, does not want anyone touching your precious head, and Lucifer help you if you ever get mad at him and get a haircut. You'll spend the next several years of being dead dealing with him giving you nightly scalp massages with rosemary oil until you've grown every inch back

Happy MerMay 04

This piece comes to us from an adventure with the ever talented Kindra Nicole back in 2018.

And while not exactly mermaid themed, laying in that space amongst the aquatic creatures of the swamp did feel rather magical.

I hope you're all able to stay warm and cozy on this rainy Saturday. :)

Toad!!!! Mugs (feat. one frog also)!!!!!!!!!

I got this batch back from the kiln last night & am SO happy with how almost everything turned out, which is wonderful (I tried a ton of new things this time around, so was nervous about the results). Now I'm just annoyed I won't have any time for pottery again until the fall because I WANNA MAKE MORE MUGS PLS.

More photos below b/c I love this pair of swamp-cups so much:

Although spring peepers are rarely more than 1.5in long, they make some of the loudest sounds in the forest relative to their size! ©

Froggo Pond

Here in coastal Georgia, we are surrounded by marshland. My favorite part of the day is when the sun has set, and all the frogs come out to sing and croak. Sometimes I hear bats, too.

I love this pattern so much, it's got different frog colors, and you can definitely make a fabric work that creates a dreamy underwater look! I'm also super proud of my log, because it doesn't look like a poop. Hop to the pattern here.
