This sick bleach shirt I made. Something to showcase my undying love for prehistoric cave art.

Some of the bleach burned thru the shirt bc this was my first time bleaching anything ever, but it kinda adds to it.

Unknown artist (signature and 1st seal: "Hiro"; 2nd seal: "Shofutsushi"), "Crows & Persimmon" (details ver. 2), Taisho era, ca. 1930

«Dragonfly and the Sunset Reflection»

For this painting, I used every color I felt belonged in it. As always, I didn’t use black. I still consider black the enemy of acrylic painting. Acrylics naturally dry a little darker and often shift in tone, and black can easily make a painting feel heavier and duller than intended.

The dragonfly came into this painting thanks to my middle son, who is six years old and currently fascinated by insects, birds, butterflies, dogs, and pretty much every living creature he can find. We spend a lot of time learning about insects together. From time to time I share the development of our Madagascan silk moths in my stories, showing how they grow from tiny eggs into beautiful creatures.

Lately, dragonflies have become his new favorite, so I simply couldn’t resist adding one to this sunset scene.

I also have a little dream. One day, I hope the children and I will have our own pond where we can grow aquatic plants, watch frogs, and observe dragonflies dancing above the water on warm summer evenings.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Tuesday. 💛

Asexuals were always part of pride and it really fucking shows when people think it's a recent term.

Although not going by the term "asexual" yet, asexuality was spoken about alongside homosexuality as far back as the 1890s. Asexual history is just as vital to queer history as any other term and I'm so tired of watching us being treated like a new thing

Humpback whales breaching: gorgeous, majestic, graceful, embodies all the strength and beauty of the ocean

Minke whales breaching: I will launch myself out of this ocean like a f***ing surface-to-air missile to seek and destroy my enemies

I remember an interview with a guy that did the camera work for nature documentaries and he said that baleen whales like these guys were the scariest things to shoot because “They’re the size of a train, they can suddenly appear out of nowhere in dark or murky water and they don’t make a goddamn sound. I was absolutely sure that one of them was going to hit me and well, ‘that’s all folks!’. Gave me a lot of perspective on how I handle myself when filming smaller animals now.”
