I'd Be Honored If You Responded To This, But I Love Your Art! It's Literally So Pretty!

I have made my own October drawing prompt for the fun of it (mostly for my own use but it's free to use of course) (inspired by bugs and some typical Spooktober things :>)

Filter: Nudity (Moderate) (not "female-presenting" nipples or whatever, but I've decided to put all filtered images under readmores)

July 5th: Phoenix for @aveskeep

[Start ID. A drawing of the Hollow Knight and Ghost, for the game Hollow Knight's sixth anniversary. Hollow passes to Ghost a cupcake decorated by an unlit "6" candle—Hollow's shown from the shoulders up, and Ghost is in full view as they sit on top of their sibling's head. The drawing is almost entirely in shades of cerulean, save for the pink clouds forming part of the background. End ID]

Happy birthday to them :]

Ok I borrowed a computer and got Chapter 2 :> All is well again except I can't get past the First Alleyway

weird fish

@sofd-maybe if I had a nickel for every time I drew a cheerful green-veiled hk oc for someone way too cool to be a mutual of mine, I'd have two nickels, etc etc

Anyway! I adore Sylvie's design, even if I may have stretched it a bit with the orange. She's doin a little jig :)

transgender autistic swag bracket!!

inspired by this tweet:

rules/info:

they don’t have to be canonically trans nor canonically autistic. they just have to have the vibes.

you can submit as many characters as you would like but only one submission per person per character

the bracket will be seeded so that the character with the most submissions goes up against the least and so forth. this is to keep it from being the most epic showdown ever in the first round and then super anticlimactic in the finals

no real people. you’re welcome to submit them and give your reasoning to make me laugh but they won’t end up in the bracket.

no harry potter characters or mcyt. this is just a personal boundary as the person making the bracket.

don’t be a dick. this is all for fun and games. i will block liberally if i need to.

give me your reasoning!! it doesn’t affect the likelihood of them getting win, it’s just fun

propaganda allowed and encouraged!! you can send an ask with it, submit it, or tag me in it! it’ll be under #trans autistic swag propaganda

no characters are automatically included but there are many characters i’m hoping will make it in and i’m excited to see who y’all submit!!

this isn’t just for binary characters, nonbinary characters are encouraged. also let’s try and get some good transfem rep/headcanons in here. we can do it.

i might add more rules. this is my first time running a bracket so be patient with me.

google form for submission will be posted tomorrow!!

thank you for the inspiration @goldenretrieverguybracket @eldest-sibling-tournament @nicejewishcharactershowdown @firefighterbracket @cringefaillosersummit @meangirlbracket @noncanongayestbitchestournament and many more, im too lazy to tag them all.

special shoutout to @tboyswag @chemicaljacketslut for their inspiring brackets from before the poll feature

image id: a traditional sketch colored in digitally featuring gabriel from ultrakill. he is facing the viewer and extending his hand. text above him says “come to me machine” and below him it says “let’s take ibuprofen together”. end id

male mantises are such bimbos I saw this guy miss a bee, then very confidently take a bite of the goldenrod buds he caught instead

Uh.

I just found a bug? And have no idea what it is?? ??????

Under readmore because I listed everything I could about it (not including colors which are instead described using actual images)

-Winged/adult insect

-Setaceous antennae same length as body (using below measurement)

-15/16 of an inch (2.5 cm) exactly from head to wingtips

-Four straight wings folded over back, hindwings significantly longer than forewings, forewings are nearly 1/2 an inch (~12mm) while hindwings nearly 3/4 of an inch long (18 or 19 mm). Hindwings curve into a long bottleneck-like shape past the end of the abdomen, stretch 6/7mm past abdomen

-Two black compound eyes less than one mm diameter

-Head 2mm long and about a millimeter and a half wide

-The thorax (or whatever portion visible above the wings, though likely the full length) is just barely noticeably thinner than head and presumably between 2/16 and 6/16ths of an inch (I don't have an underside view so I can't see exactly where it ends) (3mm to 10mm)

-Abdomen roughly between 1.5 cm (9/16 inch) and 1cm (6/16 inch) depending on previous thorax debate, what seems to be a visible black ovipositor half a centimeter long, two tan cerci about a mm and a half long each

-Relatively long, thin mouthparts greatly resembling an Orthopteran's

-Hind legs assumed equal length to hind wings, mid and forelimbs have a tibia and femur of equal length and are about 7mm long total--all legs are smooth rather than serrated

-Wings are opaque but with visible veins

-For clarification, after I got as close as possible to a wingless view the thorax and abdomen are assumed to be equal in length

-This Specific Individual isn’t really moving much except its (her?) antennae unless prompted and hasn’t opened its wings at all.

Conclusion: The insect it most closely resembles is a grasshopper, so it’s probably part of Orthopterida if not simply Orthoptera but I am still left with so many questions
