#undesirable animals

[cottagecore-raccoon]

This list is just comprised of animals that I have seen and gone “aww a baby” and had people immediately respond with “no! That animal is bad actually” in the same way they tell me dandelions *aren’t* pretty and are in fact *weeds*

fat bodies are so beautiful i wish more anime characters were positively depicted as fat or just. not skinny

I genuinely don't mean to be That Person and I do think everyone is definitely entitled to their own opinion and nothing should be exempt from criticism but I think everyone criticizing hazbin hotel over the designs is honestly a little mean? Yes, all the characters are stick thin, that's bad and there should be more variety. Yes, the designs are cluttered, not good for an animated show by regular animation standards.

But criticizing the style as something to grow out of in your teenage years? Saying how ridiculous the facial expressions are, or the palette?? Who cares about the general style tbh??

You probably have friends or peers who have similar styles and similar design preferences who are going to see you say all of that and think less of what they do because of it. Vivzie isnt going to see your mean post calling it an edgy art style but your peers are. And honestly ESPECIALLY any younger artists and teenagers that draw like that are going to take the hit.

I'm not eloquent enough to make a better more nuanced post I do think there's a point to be made about how people on this site defend all art styles and want to be supportive of artists and "cringe culture is dead" but the second something is unpopular enough they start riffing vitriolically on how it looks instead of the things actually worth criticizing (of which there are many).

found something else i wanted to listen to instead, so i paused journey to the center of the earth to instead listened to Cyrano de Bergerac (which was much shorter, because its a play lol).

having finished it, all i have to say is: please respect my privacy during this difficult time

[fujouppy]

in my wimp era but like does anyone else here wish we could have discussions and not discourse on the internet. i wish we could discuss sociological systems that affect us as well as simpler things like themes and character motives in stories without trying to kill one another. like wouldnt it be nice

You want children to learn about animals, know about them in a way that is fun and engaging.

You want children to cherish nature and protect it.

You also want children to respect nature and its wonders.

To do this they need a way to interact with it in a way that is safe, both for them and nature.

The Náttúruval deck only includes animals that are living today, they can all be studied and protected today. Some of them are endangered and some are vulnerable. But they are all still with us today and we should do as much as we can do for them to stay alive.

All of the pictures include a single adult of the species that is alive and not in the middle of something a child might find scary. The goal is not to sensationalize predators or show dramatic points of view. The goal is to show that every animal has a part to play in nature.

Snakes, sharks, spiders and insects are all very unpopular and/or feared. Large predators thought of just killing innocent animals. But hating them and wanting them eradicated is a an opinion we should all agree is detrimental to preservation of nature. All animals have a part of their ecosystem and therefore important.

You want your child to know about the importance of each animal their role in the circle of life.

We made a game that uses real life information of the animal kingdom to give kids a chance to learn about a wide variety of animals from all over the world in a fun and playful way.

You can learn about the game here, and the child behind it.
