The Bugs Are Goin To Pride :D

bugs peridots-reblogs ohhh i am going to bite someone for all my favorites being the least-liked...no respect for bugs on the bug poll website???? wasps were my immediate choice obviously. discord name was wasp apologist supreme for a while. they've always fascinated me even before i liked bugs and i absolutely adore them.... nevermind the fact that most species are parasitic and want nothing to do with humans i love wasps ok??? but on the logical side they prey on agricultural pests and pollinate a few species that don't have any other pollinator they're a Very Important part of our world and i'll defend them forever (even if i'm instinctively still terrified of the social ones lol) anyway i'll admit spiders earned their place at the top they literally do not hurt humans like Ever and (like the wasps of course) are actively beneficial to us!!!! roaches i find very cute but i'm biased and anyway there are around 3500 known species of them and only 1% of those live in human homes. mosquitos i'm not the biggest fan of but i'll still argue vehemently that they're an important part of their ecosystems. without question the worst thing about loving bugs is the fact that every single time i try to look up stuff about em all the top results are exterminator websites. or every time there's an insect or myriapod displayed amongst other interesting animals all the comments show disgust and malevolence rather than anything remotely close to reverence. idk it's just. really hard having something that brings me such great joy also being something that everyone actively wants dead. calls for the total extermination for. thinks should die out. squished under their shoe or a frying pan without a second thought it truly SUCKS and i get a little emotional but hey i've managed to make my family change their minds on bugs so that's a start for sure. don't let an aspiring entomologist around one of these polls is the moral of the story

ultrakill bots v1 ultrakill peridots-reblogs had this in my drafts since mar17 (the same day i first fought him; just after midnight) but deciding to reblog now cause i started watching mandalore's motd playthrough ten days ago (feels like a lot longer considering the seven-odd rewatches) thanks to knuckleblaster linking it on hakita's mdk art. i love this stupid game and i think i need to put brent halligan under a microscope it was mostly fun figuring out where the references came from...hence in part the mystery of the druids rambling here :] wish i had more to say as to the post itself but i do still love mdk and all your silly art of him :] mdk ultrakill owl ultrakill mystery of the druids

bots peridots-reblogs had this stuck in my drafts for a bit and one of your other art pieces showed up in my recommended last tuesday! so a wonderful array of bots! i think you did a nice job of making the colors appealing despite/possibly due to the low contrast :] they're cohesive and nice to look at!! also enjoy all the ways you manage to differentiate the designs in spite of a similar humanoid form. between the different ways the joints connect or the shapes of the panels or the faces! i think my favorite's the guy in the middle. bright + floral + long + four arms + Tail like that's a whole gender right there

peridots-reblogs 'thats a whole vibe' tag < just decided to make that tag because. hm. sometimes a specific but indescribable sort of thing will get seen by me and i'll have equally specific and indescribable feelings about it wholly captivating essentially. often it's architecture or things seen offline or even certain songs but there are a few posts on here that I still need to reblog that've activated it (along with that photography post from september) and i'll try to explain it as well as i can!! so this. to me this feels like a more standard “there is nothing outside of the view presented”. not because it's a facade and not because it's merely an image on my screen--there is just nothing for the viewer beyond it. desolate land and lifelessness in kind of a sense that You are the only perceiver of this space. an eerie beauty which isn't unwelcoming but which presents as a “future” of life without feeling like anything's ever lived in it--past or present. and then the use of light is so so cool to portray that!! between the exterior being run-down and the intensity of the light itself it's unnatural and entrancing. like it's attempting to BE welcoming but what could possibly welcome you. outside there's nothing of substance and. well. maybe it IS a facade actually. and inside is the end of all things and beyond all of the subjectivity the colors and shapes used are AWESOME...the bleached yellows and saturated reds + oranges and the cool dull greens and glowing white and the blocks of same-color pixels and the mastery in stylization from the grass to abandoned buildings are all things i love so much and they're beautiful by any definition :] aha. i hope. Any of that made sense (and it's obviously my thoughts rather than what i think is really happening/what i think it was “supposed” to invoke) but hey art's here to make us feel weird things isn't it. i'm normal < prev (me) i'm here a year later and i think that's called being objectum. hope this helps

ultrakill v1 ultrakill peridots-reblogs bugzapper ultrakill just got told this is how my friends talk about me. “op's [friend name] and the reblogs are me” quote person who has known me for 10 years they were the one who showed this to ME unprovoked (< saying this as someone who describes themself as a freak of a man). i did bite like multiple of aforementioned friends though so fair < they deserve this also
