The Firstborn of Delgrim

—LeTwIg the one of Bad Omens

OH that episode was good! ever since rewatching it i’ve used the phrase ‘multidimensional wavelength of celestial intent’ way more often than is appropriate for situations LOL

i forgot how offended sam was by the whole more profound bond scene 😭 my beloved more profound bond

no image id, sorry!! (tired)

I combined the queer chevron flag with the other queer flag awhile back bc i like them both and didn’t want to choose so uhh. here ya go. free to use. have fun

pro tip; don’t agree to participate in ancient blood rituals to beseech the fae as the symbolic virgin ‘sacrifice’ being performed by two kinda shady dudes in flannel who drive (live in??) an impala unless you know them personally, that’s how you end up developing an iron allergy and night vision. Just let them borrow ur rare books on local folklore and then block their phone numbers.

close ups (no image ids for the close ups, sorry)

Hello 👋,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Aziz, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help my family find safety and reunite with our mother. 😞

The ongoing war in Gaza has torn my family apart. My mother and newborn sister are stranded in Egypt, while I, along with the rest of my sex family members, am trapped in the midst of the genocide in Gaza. We have not only been separated but have also lost our home and are enduring unimaginable hardships. 💔

Your support can make a difference. Whether by reading our story, donating, or sharing our campaign with others, you can help us reunite, find safety, and start anew. 🙏🕊

Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for your kindness, compassion, and solidarity during this difficult time. ❤🍉

new oc time!! Tentatively his first name is Richard but that’s open to change. still needs a last name

He runs a waterpark + owns the only motel in town, hobbies include goofy ties and ancient blood rituals that require human sacrifice. He has a soft spot for his waterpark employees, most of them are broke collage students who need summer work, plus they don’t ask too many questions about the peculiar happenings around his business so he feels a bit bad for them. for ‘some reason’ all his employees tend to be oddly lucky in specific ways.

I should have known if I brought up wc I’d have to talk about. But it includes of a lot of issues with feral/furry designs that use feathers in hair. I don’t necessarily know why the conversation only started and stayed in the wc fandom when horse/wolf/lion feral fandoms are still doing the same thing.

Now having feathers in the design isn’t a racial attack first thing off because there’s a lot of context around what feather’s are used, the shape, and where they are placed. If the look is anything like "rave Coachella looking tribal fantasy feathers and beads" it’s probably insensitive. I’m not to sure why it has to be feathers, I honestly think the wc fandom are holding themselves back when it comes to forwarding designs in a unique way. Tail feathers are also left out in this conversation as well, one or two feathers or feathers in the shape of a birds tail are fine but bunched together feathers are leaning to close to how we have our horses wear feathers. This is in the context of the design already looking like a "medicine cat" already its bad. it’s like those yt girls wear feather head bands but animal addition.

I’ve talked about this before but silhouettes are so important, like Native American stereotypes are on the global scale you cannot escape this silhouette you just have to avoid it. There’s no "but it’s in so many other cultures" no it’s not it’s totally unique to our people that’s why people flock to it because it’s so "mysterious, sacred" whatever their weird twisted up reason is. There’s so many unique ways to break this silhouette you just gotta be more creative. And I feel like instead of being more creative and coming up with totally different ideas it’s just easier to lean on these visual native stereotypes to get across "wild mythical nature fantasy"

I could get into the horse fandom and the weird situations they’re doing over there but that’s another crazy thing. I should say because someone will ask, ostrich feathers on like show horses or knights or puss in boots style is fine not the same thing (breaking the silhouette) they’re not related.

And it comes down to understanding what you are drawing and where this imagery comes from, I’m not gonna get my feelings hurt because of your design but I’ll question why are you drawing stuff like that. You cant remove that cultural/stereotypical imagery, and if you don’t care about it then you don’t care about the history or how it looks on your character and art.

I made it this far on the internet but if you want to be conscious about these things good on yea it doesn’t take much☺️👍

Edit: can’t believe I gotta say this but yes other cultures utilize feathers, if people are using feathers that are used in their culture then don’t harass them. That’s weird have some common sense. Ostrich feathers, peacock feathers it’s actually so interesting how native birds to an area affect the culture there.
