i will admit i did watch that video of that guy butchering that alligator and every time he made a comment about how fatty the tail was i was like. taking notes.
#the way the tail looked when he broke it down was FASCINATING to me. the way the muscles were grouped.#idk what 🐟s looks like in there i dont think theres a realistic analogue for it but i do think its about 70% muscle tissue?#maybe more? or less when theyre eating consistently#i think they mostly stay really scrawny no matter how much they eat but when they eat better their 🐟 traits get more exaggerated.#takes a lot of energy to make new stuff#so i think it would accelerate a lot when they first leave oz and everyone is eating a Lot just because they can.#their fins would probably get bigger too#and i do think itd slow down again as they got used to consistently having enough to eat but i do think theyre just gonna keep getting More#for the rest of their life. i think at some point theyre gonna start getting 'fins' like. webbing style between their fingers and#maybe between their arms and chest. and i think their back fin is one of the main things that gets noticably a lot bigger really fast#have i mentioned before that i think give them another 20ish years and itll be so cumbersome to be on land that theyre just gonna have#to retire basically#i think about them settling on a river or lake or coast somewhere and just getting to be mermaid boyfriend#i do think theyd still drag themself up onto land especially to hang out with hog but they wouldnt go very far#theyre kind of a lazy shit anyways i think theyd be pretty content to do little tasks around the house and take sunnaps#i like imagining like a little house right on the water just stilts. so they can just pull themself right up without having to walk far#because i imagine itd be a total pain. heavy tail thats probably longer than they are tall...#but do like thinking abt them taking naps on a little dock while hog fishes. sighs.

Conner Phantom, learning to live
It had been a few years since Vlad and Danny had stopped being enemies, years since Amity had been at peace with the ghosts. Danny spent his days teaching his children (he assumed they were his children) about well, everything.
Dan and Ellie had prefabricated knowledge, the halfa couldn't quite get it, but the point was that while they knew who was the creator of the chemistry, they had no idea how to do 2 + 2, so he made it his homework to fill in all the gaps.
No one at Amity blinked at the 30-year-boy-who-was-actually-12 and the 15-year-girl-who-was-actually-4, Danny guessed they had gotten used to the weirdness. One day, Vlad called and pointed out that someone had entered his database a few months ago (apparently he checked his digital security very little when he didn't make "evil" plans) and they had stolen the plans for the cloning capsule. Danny had a bad feeling.
Of course, it was after a month of searching that he found out about Lex Luthor's little "project." To say that he was angry was an understatement; he found the poor Superboy being mind controlled. He felt sad when he remembered Ellie's situation and well, he ended up stealing a clone child and destroying some laboratory. Like old times.
The world did not know of Phantom; Amity was suspicious, almost jealous that their protector could be taken away if they said a word, so they didn't say anything out of the city. It's not like the League did anything when they called. Danny didn't care, less tedious meetings and contingency plans for him. Besides, he wasn't excited about going back to the field if he didn't have to, as long as Amity was safe, the world could be destroyed for all he cared.
He wondered if spending too much time with Dan was affecting him, but in the end he dismissed the thought. Upon arriving home, Superboy had woken up and was being interrogated by the Phantoms. He chose his name to be Conner (sounds good apparently) and agreed to take classes to fill in the gaps of knowledge, just like Ellie, he seemed uncomfortable with the gaps.
The poor boy looked uncomfortable, waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it never did. After finding out whose clone he was, he wondered if they would take him to Superman, but Danny just snorted. By the end of the week, Conner was a Phantom, and he was fine with that. Danny even told him that he could live normally if he wanted to, and the boy happily accepted the offer. Conner didn't want to be a hero, at least not that early, and Danny was happy with his decision.
Danny frowned thinking of all the heroes who would say that is "selfish" for someone with power to not to use it. But he believed that they were doubly selfish. Being a teenage hero wasn't fucking easy. He hugged Conner, welcoming him to the family and within days, the whole town already knew about him (they also knew whose clone he was, but they didn't really care, they weren't snitching).
Curiously, it was Tim Drake who noticed the strange family visiting Gotham (a 23-year-old seemed to be berating a 30-year-old for stealing tires, he snorted at the irony). However he froze when he saw Clark?, but much younger, speaking in Kryptonian and laughing. He called a meeting in the batcave and tried to call the family, but as soon as they saw the expression in his face they vanished from sight.
Hell, he needed to report it to Bruce.
#dpxdc#Basically Conner life if Danny found him instead of YJ#years earlier#Danny have experience with clones after all#he's happy with his family addition#Conner is happy too#He doesn't care about Superman#his Dad and siblings are cooler#Vlad and Danny are allies#They kinda retired#Vlad is trying to reconnect with Dan and Dani and is not working#dp x dc#dc x dp#Of course Danny investigated about Krypton#His child had the right to know his origins and speak his native language#Of course he take him to the Realms to meet some Kryptonians too#Danny does not like that all their knowledge was implanted or magically there so he gives them particular classes#He will accept more students if they ask like magic kids or more clones#Tim is having a panic attack at the same time that he has a bisexual panic#Conner deserves to be happy#Clark is going to faint but he does not have the jurisdiction of this child lol#Connor chosed a Kryptonian name when he learned about his origins of course

Sleepover with two puny mortals that you're in love with (and everything can go right).
Lowkey based on a fanfic I was writing, but as usual I haven't the confidence to post it! Yeah~
Had this in the drafts for months,,,, figured I'd finish it up now so it's done. I like to kinda have some Finished art on the page hahahaha
#me when I'm unable to do streaming and music bc of my flu so I have time to focus on art instead#I recommend having multiple hobbies yall#hobbies you can do in different situations I mean#anyway this fic was so cute I'm ngl#it was meant to be timkon but then Bern materialised and had some extremely sweet moments with Kon and then ended up with the three of them#getting together casually and feeling it out as a three and then BOOM they're all in love#also Tim quit being a field vigilante and became a new comms guy (without alfred Barbara was rly just In A Situation)#and I fixed a few patches in the insane working conditions of the Wayne family business#basically it was extremely self indulgent because Tim's cool and chill vibe taking over WE and also performing a coup so Batman could retir#resulted in the family just kind of chilling out#and so he became free to explore romance and his Tim life (like he wants to do!)#bat workers rights!#art#digital art#fanart#screentone#manga style#illustrationish#tim drake#tim drake wayne#red robin dc#kon el#conner kent#superboy#bernard dowd#timkon#timbern#konbern#timbernkon#oh Tim's new vigilante name was Stalker (I'm not good at naming things) but the fam tends to refer to him as Chat (bc funni)

Oxley Bom MotoGP podcast : Misano 2024 - Nature's Sprinkler Surprise
"But yeah Márquez, I mean, anybody that thought he was.. didn't have.. That he lost the skill. That he lost the hunger. That he lost the willingness to take risks. I think this two last weekend would show that he hasn't lost anything" "And talking about his physical strength you never, he never mentions it. Never never mentions it. I mean he did say, somebody did ask him how's his physical strength now compared to 2019? and he said 'well it's not as good'. But you don't really hear him says anything specific about it but on Thursday I was walking through the paddock and Márquez was riding..." "He has no weaknesses, he wants us to think he has no weakness" "Yeah. He was riding through the paddock on his scooter with his right arm, you know right hand holding the throttle, and his left arm was holding his upper arm around where it was sawed in half and he was wincing yeah? So he.. he probably thought no one was watching then but you know, that told me straight away that he's still in a lot of pain with that. But he.. There's no way he will say that because as soon as you say that people can think 'right, he's got a... there's a chink in his armor and if I keep pushing, in a fight, I can sort of get in there'. He never shows, never says anything about it but that really showed me that he probably still got a lot of pain and discomfort from that arm and it's still probably isn't as strong as it should be"
We all already know this (kind of) but yeah... kms
#I swear the only thing that can make him admit to it is retirement (as in how bad it really is)#and the subsequent documentary on the subject will probably reduce me to tears#the fact that his sheer mental strength basically counteract it is just. yeah#marc marquez#mm93#motogp

just saw someone (on twitter) imply the idiots are getting too old to keep creating new projects because “they can’t do this forever” and i feel the need to remind people that 50 is not elderly and even if it was who gives a fuck
creativity doesn’t stop the older you get, talent doesn’t worsen. people are well into their 70s/80s and still creating beautiful art that we all consume and love. i hate this idea that there’s a time limit on when we need to do stuff by. the idiots are not going anywhere, they’re not nearing death for fucks sake they’re middle aged
#twitter simply infuriates me#i’m not posting the tweet bc i’m not gonna yk. bash that person#but basically they said if we don’t get another project soon then the liklehood of us ever getting another is slim#bc 2 of them are 50 and they can’t do this forever#like yes?? they can??#this is their job??#and they love it so why would they stop unless they absolutely must#they’re not going to fucking retire this is their life#anyways#bbc ghosts#six idiots#them there

Silly unfinished sketch of what I think the Mallard (the steam train that holds the world speed record for steam locomotives) would look like in starlight express
This is the LNER Class A4 4468 Mallard
#stex#starlight express#starlight express oc#would she be an oc? probably#anyways I’m gonna blather on abt her design here#so the A4s (the type of steam train that the mallard is) was made in the late 1930s#and they have their distinctive streamlined appearance due to the influence of the art deco movement#specifically the streamline moderne part of the art deco movement. so the A4s are essentially your regular steam trains but with a#sort of covering over it#and so I represented this here by giving her a beautiful sleek 1930s style coat over the more typical stex steam train clothes#I also wanted to make her overall design very streamlined in the general shapes such as the ends of her coat and the lining of her coat and#her hair. which is admittedly finished#unfinished*#I imagine her underclothes (like her trousers etc) being silver and her coat being blue and black#specifically her coat would be largely blue with black trimmings and black lining#and also her elbow pads would be black#I think she’s sort of like. an old starlet but racer#she’s happily retired in a museum and is also very proud of herself and her racing history#I might delete this later. or I might finish the drawing or redo her in a less small sketch way and then post that#idk. but she’s finished for now and I just wanted to post her#I loooove the mallard I’m basic but the A4s are soooooo beautiful#my art

my last time speaking on this bc I’m back to my smut and stupid shit afterwards (cause yk this is my safe space 🤪😜🫶🏾👍🏾) , but I’m genuinely scared, not just for this presidency but my local leadership too. Hence why I always make such an emphasis on it. I live in a small town and it’s very much class/racially divided. The sheriff (a white woman btw but a woman nonetheless) has been actively trying to harass and run everyone from my side of town. She pretty much wrote off this area as a bunch of drug addicts and says ‘she hopes we all just kill each other’. (My family has never done, sold or even been around drugs and yet her dumbass cops are convinced bc we’re black with nice vehicles, that we must sell). She’s also pushing for the gentrification of our area so all of her rich cohorts can come and tear down our houses and build a suburbia. Just the other day, a cop made me move my vehicle from in front of a store I park at all the time bc im disabled and even the closest parking spot is far on this leg and he did it just to be an asshole. I can’t even cry abt this presidency yet bc I’m now worried that my local leaders are going to make our lives hell. Not to mention, they voted no on abortions and gender affirming care as well. I hate it here so fucking bad.
#🪷—faerie whispers#side note and lowkey unpopular opinion#but both sides reasoning were short sighted and vain#I saw someone say ‘ppl only voted for trump bc he’s a man and more economically popular’#and ykw for some people that eas just enough#there is a huge gap in our gen’s beliefs and ideas and our parents aunties grandparents etc#I hate to say this but our parents don’t gaf abt things like Palestine and lgbtq rights#they care about being able to retire earn money and pay their mortgages/rent#they don’t care abt the same things that we do and the dems underestimated that#I’d be a hypocrite if I said one was a better choice than the other bc the things that are important to me#they both stood against#so I can’t lesser of two evils my way out of it#not to mention the tone deafness of having millionaires and billionaires campaigning for you in a time where ppl cannot afford basic things#idk how I feel atp#i think each side voted for the wrong reasons and I cannot get over that#either way I already know this is going to be black ppl’s faults#we’re going to get the blame while simultaneously getting the short end of the stick#I really do not want to be alive anymore
