I Have A Disease Its Called Dumbass Artist Disease And Its Incurable

WIP from drawing a bee beetle awhile back. (...Somehow I like going back to look at WIPs more than finished pieces, idk why 🤷)

Anyway I think we can all agree that bee beetles are Very Good beetles, yes? Yes.

This from my sister on Discord

Tumblr people, can I ask something weird? Can I ask you to vote in a popular tournament poll…. Not on this hellsite? 🥺👉👈

Mascot Madness - SUNY

SUNY Mascot Madness is the battle to decide New York's favorite college mascot.

My school’s mascot is Oakie the Acorn, and they’re probably the Tumblr-est mascot you could think of.

I mean, they’re an acorn for goodness’ sake, they’re officially non-binary, and they’re all about sustainability. The school they represent is also very tumblr- SUNY ESF is a school dedicated to saving the Earth, and its student culture makes it a place where the genders are queer and the neuros are divergent :) People just stop to stare at a weird mushroom or interesting insect all the time here, and if someone spots them, instead of ridicule, you’ll probably have two people staring.

In conclusion, vote for Oakie!

Random worldbuilding idea: a culture where everyone is a goth, but for perfectly sensible environmental ressons.

Wearing mainly/almost exclusively black clothing because either the dye protects them/the fabric from something in the environment, black clothes are the most convenient ones to maintain, or then a century ago black dye was extremely difficult and/or expensive to produce and only the wealthiest of society could afford it, but now a cheaper dye method has been invented and after a huge trend of Now Everybody Can Wear Black, it just stuck and nobody even remembers why all clothes are dyed black. It's just tradition.

Everyone wears demonia-style platform shoes because the climate is wet and cold, and for most of the year the ground is either muddy or covered in icy slush, so knee-high tall boots are simply the most pragmatic way to keep the rest of your clothes reasonably dry and clean.

Silver and leather jewellery is widespread because the land is rich in metal ore - while the rich can afford to buy/commission delicate silver threads, even the peasants can afford some sort of rough iron chains and studs on their wristbands. Studded leather is more sensible than having metal rings touching skin directly, due to the cold weather. Studs and chains also double as armour and weapons which technically speaking don't count as such, allowing people to circumvent any "can't openly carry weapons during peace time"-laws. Law enforcement could not confiscate someone's bling without causing public riots.

Everyone is about as pale as their natural complexion allows since the climate is cold and dark and the sun does not rise much during the winter. Cold dark winters are also the reason why the culture is so morbid in general - in the heart of the darkest months there's fuck all else to do than write poetry about the moon's silver light and the howls of wolves and the beauty of death, while polishing your iron chains until they shine like silver.

Domesticated ravens are more covenient for messenger birds than doves are, as they're hardier and can manage the climate better. Even if more modern messaging technology has been invented, people prefer sending letters by bird because it's more romantic and poetic. Sending someone a raven message poem about how you'd like to be buried in the same grave together one day is a very standard way of flirting.

So. The acorn we were all rooting for lost the poll. Wolfie the Seawolf has been announced the victor. But! It was the closest race in the 10-year history of Mascot Madness.

Thank you all for joining me and supporting the silly acorn with me!

Especially, I ought to thank those I haven’t made an art post for! Thank you @gelatinous-jellyfish

Enjoy some insect doodles!

Thank you @neon-draws-sometimes

I drew this on one of those scratch-off things. They’re such fun!

Thank you @ephemeral-system

This is similar to the last one, but I edited the photo of it and I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to post the original or the edited version. So I made a collage with both!

Again, thank you all!

😊

hey guys tell me something. put in the tags a character you headcanon as using different or additional pronouns from what they use in canon

[Image Description: Dr. Olivia Octavia’s from Into the Spider-Verse reaches for the robot GLADOS from the Portal series. Both characters have a pink “blush” drawn on. End ID.]

[Image Description from alt text: A badly edited image of Mettaton from Undertale with an arm around Troupe Master Grimm from Hollow Knight. End ID.]

[Image Description from alt text: A badly edited image of Mettaton from Undertale with an arm around Troupe Master Grimm from Hollow Knight. Both characters have a pink blush and the background is full of pink hearts. End ID.]

[Image Description from alt text: A badly edited image of Mettaton from Undertale with an arm around Troupe Master Grimm from Hollow Knight, depicting them as blushing and in love, in a heart-shaped frame. Text above and below the heart reads “Dance with me, darling…” and “The audience awaits.” End ID.]

This came through my dash, so here’s my cringey crossover crackship: Mettaton from Undertale and Grimm from Hollow Knight. These definitely-gay deadly dancers both live for the show… I can’t help but imagine the chaos of a combined act! They’d also argue because Grimm’s aesthetic choices and general style are way more tasteful than Mettaton’s though lol 😆

I think we should bring back that thing everyone did in 2014 where you badly photoshop two characters from entirely different media together to look like they’re in love. This is my proposal for doc ock x glados please consider
