This is a photo of my boy Light, when he was just a wee baby.
He's now over a year, but just as boopable. ☺️
For the entirety of August 2021, I want to draw pictures of your pets. During that time, reblog this post with a photo of your pet – make sure to read the rules below and abide by them – and I will draw every single one of those requests I get.
To make a request, reblog this post with a photo of your pet. In the body of the post, include the pet’s name. If you don’t have that text in the body of the post, it makes it hard to find, and I might not notice that you added anything at all in that reblog. Valid requests will be drawn in the order they come in, with some rare exceptions (generally when I’m tired or I need a warm-up).
(If you were here for what I did in April, these are the same rules and methods, only now I’m hoping they’re written out a bit more clearly. Black lives matter, and trans right are human rights.)
Only one photo per request, and only one pet per request. Do not include multiple photos and tell me to pick one. If you give me a photo that has multiple animals in it, be very clear about which one you want me to draw.
Only one request at a time (but see number 5).
It has to be your pet, present or past; I won’t draw just random pictures you found online.
Vertebrate pets only.
If you want multiple things drawn, pick one to start with; wait until your first request is done, and then put in another. That is, you can only have one request “active” at a time.
Once it is no longer August 2021, I won’t be accepting requests reblogged on this post.
Black cats are good, and sleeping cats are good, and curled-up-in-a-ball cats are good; but sleeping curled-up-in-a-ball black cats just look like a black circle. Find a different photo for me to draw.
Answers to common questions are found below the read-more. You don’t need to read this before requesting, but if you have a question, check this out before asking me.

i’m up at 1 am thinking about the fact that 1) andi and Jonah never looked back at one another, 2) Buffy and Marty never looked back at one another, but who has looked back at one another? who is the only pairing on the show that has looked back at one another?

a testament to what will be a long and happy relationship for years to come !
Iroh: Pride is not the opposite of shame, but its source. True humility is the only antidote to shame.
Iroh: There is nothing wrong with a life of peace and propserity. I suggest you think about what it is you want from your life, and why.
Iroh: While it’s always best to belive in one’s self, a little help from others can be a great blessing!
Iroh: You must never give in to despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.
Iroh: It is important to draw wisdom from many places. If you tale it from only one place, it becomes rigid and stale.
Iroh: Protection and power are overrated. I think you are very wise to choose happiness and love.
Iroh: Sometimes life is like this tunnel. You can’t always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you keep moving, you will come to a better place.
Iroh: There is nothing wrong with letting the people who love you help you. Not that I love you, I just met you!
Iroh: Sharing tea with a fascinating stranger is one of life’s true delights!
Iroh: Are you so busy fighting you cannot see your own ship has set sail? (hehe)
Iroh: With a poor stance you are unbalanced and can be easily knocked over. With a solid stance you are a much more serious threat!
Iroh: Is it your own destiny, or is it a destiny someone else has tried to force on you?
Iroh: It’s time for you to look inward and begin asking yourself the big questions: Who are you? and What do you want?
Iroh: Now you’ve come to the crossroads of your destiny. It’s time for you to choose. It’s time for you to choose good.
Iroh: I was never angry with you. I was sad, because I was afraid you’d lost your way.
Iroh: Life happens wherever you are, whether you make it or not.
Iroh: Leaves from the vine, falling so slow, like fragile, tiny shells, drifting in the foam. Little soldier boy, come marching home. Brave soldier boy, comes marching home.
Lion Turtle: The true mind can weather all lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginningless time, darkness thrives in the world, but always yields to purifying light.
Lion Turtle: To bend another’s energy, your own spirit must be unbendable… or else you will be corrupted and destroyed.
Avatar Roku: Some frienships are so strong, they can even transcend lifetimes.
Avatar Roku: When love is real, it finds a way.
Aang: It’s easy to do nothing, it’s hard to forgive.
Aang: The past can be a great teacher.
Aang: When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.
Aang: What?! I’m saying I’d rather kiss you than die! That’s a compliment! :/
Aang: If anything, their story proves anyone is capable of great good and great evil. Everyone, even the Fire Lord and the Fire Nation, have to be treated like they’re worth giving a chance.
Aang: Baby, you’re my forever girl. ;)
Avatar State Aang: FIRE LORD OZAI, YOU AND YOUR FOREFATHERS HAVE DEVASTATED THE BALANCE OF THIS WORLD. AND NOW, YOU SHALL PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE!
Alternatively
Aang: No, Firelord Ozai, you’re not wearing any pants! >:(
Katara: But now you’re not letting yourself feel anything. I know sometimes it hurts more to hope and it hurts more to care. But you have to promise me that you won’t stop caring.
Katara: Yes, they have taken away your ability to bend, but they can’t take away your courage and it is your courage they should truly fear! Because it runs deeper than any mine you’ve been forced to dig, any ocean that keeps you far from home. It is the strength of your hearts that make you who you are, hearts that will remain unbroken when all rock and stone has eroded away. The time to fight back is now!
Guru Pathik: You must learn to let go.
Guru Pathik: The greatest illusion of this world is the illusion of separation.
Alternatively
Huu: Pants are an illusion, and so is death.
Huu: You think you’re any different from me, or your friends, or this tree? If you listen hard enough, you can hear every living thing breathing together. You can feel everything growing. We are all living together, even if most folks don’t act like it. We all have the same roots, and we are all branches of the same tree.
Zuko: I know now that no one can give you your honour. It’s something you earn for yourself by doing what is right.
Zuko: Sometimes clouds have two sides, a dark and light, and a silver lining in between. It’s like a silver sandwich! So when life seems hard, take a bite out of the silver sandwich!
Zuko: You must look within yourself, to save yourself from your other self. Only then, your true self will reveal itself. :’)
Sifu Pakku: With fierce determination, passion, and hard work, you can accomplish anything.
Bumi: You need to find someone who waits and listens before striking.
Smellerbee: As long as I’m confident with who I am, it doesn’t matter what other people think.
Cave of Lovers Inscription: Love is brightest in the dark
Walking dead & supernatural basically simultaneously
what was the first show y’all broke up with…you know like the first show you had that was your everything for a good amount of time and then it fucked up so bad that like you felt your heart breaking with sadness, disappointment and hurt and then you vowed never to see it again? i’ll start mine was shame/ess
Black cats are lucky. (via leahweissmuller)
For safe keeping
A game that is marketed as your standard fishing game and for the first 20 minutes or so you catch normal fish like bluegill and bass and what have you. But the further you go into the lake you start to catch fish with mutations and it gets more and more intense until you’re pulling in Eldritch horror monsters and sometimes severed human limbs. You realize you don’t recall how you got to this lake in the first place and the objective becomes to find your way back to shore. You have no real weapons but you can throw the creatures you’ve caught far away from the boat as a means to distract whatever is underneath you, bumping into the boat sometimes. Additional items for the game.
A fishing pole with a radar that starts out with just beeps but later includes noises with hidden messages.
A GPS that displays texts and story elements.
You meet other boaters, all from various backgrounds, countries, and time periods. Some are friendly, others want to sacrifice you to the lake monsters.
You can also take the route of sacrificing others to the lake monster.
Or you can assemble a party and work to keep them safe.
The more fucked up looking the fish you catch, the closer you’re getting to a boss fight, which is usually running from something you can only see part of in the water.
????
And that’s my game idea.

For the rest of March 2021, so long as nothing happens that would make me unable to access tumblr or to draw; if you reblog this post with an art request, I’ll draw it. It will almost certainly just be a shitty doodle done without reference, but I’ll still draw it.
(Also, trans rights are human rights, and black lives matter.)
so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

EXCUSE ME
I think a certain group of doctors owe me a finger thankssss
My middle finger had to be amputated, and I asked the doctors if I could keep it and they were like, ‘I mean, yeah. It’s your finger, go ahead,’ so I took it home and cleaned it until I just had the bones left. Then in clear resin I cast a hand flipping the bird, and placed my bones in the middle finger. It looked sick as hell so I posted it online, where I was doxxed for using real human bones for art even though they were my bones.
