WHAT DO YOU MEAN, CRUSTACEAN.

my tags need to go in the main part of the post actually

There's a different species of barnacle, Sacculina, that parasitizes crabs in a similar way to this. It has a very cursed lifecycle and I assume the crab is also having a weird time.

[headspace-hotel]

I think i've heard of this one.

I just looked it up—it injects itself into the crab's body and replaces the crab's genitals with itself, grows roots into the crab's organs (including its brain), and controls the crab's behaviors so the crab will take care of the Sacculina larvae as a female crab would its own babies—if the crab is male, the Sacculina parasite will make the crab's body produce female hormones to basically change it to female.

This is so cool...how did this even develop? How did the parasite evolve to do that? How ancient would this relationship have to be for something so complex to form?

Posts I can't believe didn't originate on tumblr.

Betrayed and backstabbed by your scheming evil advisor? Psch. Skill issue. Absolute amateur problem. Just hire two of them and reward them for snitching on each other. Just make sure that neither of them is gay or they'll just end up hate-fucking each other and fucking you over all the same.

[miss-hexatrix]

"hire two evil advisors but make sure neither of them is gay" are you hearing yourself right now. be serious

Doing a quick painting commission with 10 miniatures

Isn't super serious tho so I'm rushing it and trying not to get lost in my perfectionism. Emphasis on "trying" lmao

These four are lacking so much depth rip but the colors are nice

Pretty happy with this one! But I used the same colors for the background and the flowers so the flowers aren't as noticeable as they were intended to be, but I actually like the hazy effect it gives

And this is the current work in progress, it's probably also gonna lack depth but I'm deliberately skipping that step every time cuz it takes up like an additional hour. And this does not need to be that serious XD

So yeah far from my best work but for this purpose it's alright!
