I, uh, might do that… except I’d probably worry too much about the welfare of the bugs.
Me walking around with a “Free Bugs” T-shirt and when people ask I point out all the little guys around them and tell them which ones are introduced species that they can totally just grab off the street and keep as pets

Thank you nervoussaladbard! Enjoy this Art Thing. No, I don’t know what this creature is either.

Please Help Me – My Son May Die at Any Moment. Donate or at Least Share This Appeal.
I am in desperate need of your help.
My son’s life is hanging by a thread, and he may not survive without urgent medical treatment.
Time is running out, and we are facing a critical situation. I am asking for your generosity to help us save him – either through a donation or by sharing this urgent plea with others.
I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too
I beg you, kiss your feet, to help my son. My son may die at any moment
Please donate and/or share this fundraiser if you are able!
The International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD) recently had a panel conference on “DID and social media,” featuring harmful and offensive content denouncing self-diagnosis and spreading the narrative that most systems online are faking it for the attention. In this conference, they showed footage of several Systems, without their consent, in order to publicly shame them and use them as examples of the “Imitative DID” that they claimed was rampant online. As a non-disordered System, we stand with those with DID and against those who would spread harmful claims that a majority of Plurals are lying about their Plurality for online clout.
This petition was created by The Plural Association, an organization created by and for Plurals, including those with professionally diagnosed DID.
If you wish to donate, donate to The Plural Association. DO NOT DONATE TO CHANGE.ORG! THEY DO NOT PUT YOUR MONEY TOWARDS THE PETITION YOU SIGNED!!!
Second art post thanks to @nervoussaladbard ‘s Oakie appreciation!
I have a little playlist of romantic songs that I sing along to with my sibling headmate. We continue to choose each other even though we never had a choice in the first place.
I feel like lots of people are forgetting about how queer readings of media has always been gay culture. It's broadened out to headcannons and AUs and such. I feel that usually when someone expresses their personal queer reading of a character who was never written to be queer there is always backlash and lots of hate to that person.
The Office could be read as a lesbian love story between a dyke and the best friend she's in love with who's already engaged to a man. Many sapphics find Jim Halpert's situation relatable and has drawn Jim as a lesbian. There are paragraphs and fanfictions that explain the queerness they see in Jim Halpert. Yes the reality is that Jim Halpert is just a cishet white boy who's an ok person. People who hate on these queer readings are usually ignorant.
The thing is I don't think that queer readings and headcannons only come from a desire for representation. I think it's a from of self expression.
Usually when people talk about queer rep and queerbait its in the context of television, cartoons, and books. It's the marketable representation. Authentic queerness in art comes from the sheer desire to express and dream and imagination. Imagination is a wonderful thing!!
Let queer people have their headcannons. Let people draw characters as a ethnicity and race that's different from canon. Let disabled artists people draw and write their favorite characters as disabled.
How dare people insert themselves in media and feel joy. You're a bully if you think that's cringe and you need to grow the fuck up
@its-or thank you for supporting Oakie! Here’s a pencil sketch of a squirrel and an acorn (not Oakie lol)
(If you see this post and want us to post more art, vote for Oakie here and reply, message us, or like the post linked here to let us know!)
I’m not going to post something for everyone who liked or commented on Oakie posts after the polls closed today, but I will post two more pieces, because we had two more voters I haven’t mentioned yet. I am however doing this again for the finals, so you all can have your chance then!
Here’s what was supposed to be a quick sketch of Lucina from Fire Emblem Awakening. It kinda got away from me a bit. Thank you @sacredstones2004 :)
This one is a recent drawing (I did it because I was bored) of an old OC I made in high school. Adria Black, hailing from a world full of beings best summarized as vampire ghosts that only adolescents can see, hunted these monsters with her best friend Vivian… until dying and becoming one herself. She wanted to destroy herself, but Vivian wouldn’t accept that, and so now she acts as a spy of sorts. After all, few vampire-ghosts would expect one of their own to be working with a hunter. I hope you enjoy it, @lizardonatoadstool !
Please vote for this acorn it’s just a few clicks
@printerpenguin thank you for sharing, I will now share a tiny figurine of The Knight from Hollow Knight
we tried this and actually didn't hate it (cursed opinion)
don't do this
Hi, we're the River System! Katlyn (she/they) and Jacob (he/him). Came for the fandoms, stayed for the off-the-wall and the cringe. 22, autistic (language abled and low support needs), Environmental Biology major. Actual Mad Scientists ;) [We do science and don't do sanity!] Mostly this is Katlyn obsessing over bugs and fandoms (Undertale, Hollow Knight, Little Nightmares, Fire Emblem: Awakening, RWBY, Arcane). Also may include photography, dark aesthetics, and general chaos from Jacob. (Cover photo by Sagar Patil on Unsplash)
