Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones “fake” is stupid because it’s the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it’s all fuckign carbon
canon (we’ve seen at least one canon character with these features):
Multiple colored tentacles (either individually or as a gradient)
different ear shapes
piercings, including tentacle piercings
dyed fingertips
different teeth shapes
scarred tentacles
dried or fried tentacles
deny them of their eyebrows
unnatural skin tones
facial hair
tattoos
unable to change form
different eye mask shapes
inspiration drawn from real squid and octopus species
extra or missing tentacles
making them a different animal entirely - splatoon characters aren’t limited to just inklings and octolings! Make your oc a type of fish, an anemone, an urchin, a shellfish, an octarian or a salmonid! (Or maybe something else entirely)
non-canon (as in, we’ve never seen characters with these features)
Scars from ink
ink-colored markings/visible chromatophores
shaped tentacle spots or suction cups
(I wanted this part of the list to be longer but I can’t think of any more atm lol)
if you have more ideas for either canon or non canon features, feel free to share them! :)
we should talk about water more often that shit is crazy
i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"
Me: “The food webs we try to teach children and the public are too simple to get the point across. Why do they never bother to show the more intricate relationships between specific species? It can’t be that hard to represent with basic teaching tools... I’ll make the thing!”
The thing:
Me: “....I get it now.”

if you’re reading this, i’m putting a thought out into the world for you. a hope that whatever’s worrying you works out in your favor, that a happy moment comes your way, and that you have a heartwarming reason to smile tonight
I’ve never had a reheading go this horribly before. I’d say I’m pretty good at beheading- I may have broken a neck once or twice, but never any parts I actually liked or intended on keeping, and usually a reheading is the easiest thing, right? Just a little squish and a pop and done, a complete person. But this time it just- it just won’t go back on the body?? Which is incredibly frustrating but also, like, why??
And the funniest thing is, I’m not even swapping a head!! This is a curvy dancer head going onto a curvy dancer body!! They match!! This should have been so simple!! But no, this head’s just flopping around like a limp flaccid idiot and my hands are all red and sore now but the head just isn’t attaching all the way!!
Today I did six beheadings and two other reheadings, and I wanted to get this one attached so I could take a picture, but somehow it just isn’t working!! The head is just getting squished around but isn’t stretching over the neck right!! And I’m way too lazy to go and boil the head just to make the slip easier!! And I don’t wanna keep forcing it cuz I might break something but this is!! So frustrating!!
Like, what could I possibly be doing wrong!! Fuck!!
