My concept art for @sm-baby game "Valley of Gold." I'm leaning more on the third design I made.
I haven't thought about what kind of role he's going to fit even if he's an NPC. Maybe the resident info broker? He could be talking with the bunnies a lot cuz he looooves sweet gossip. Can be seen eating popcorn if/when there's drama.

This is my first time actually participating in Artfight despite having an account since 2022 LMAO
I'm excited but also intimidated to finally join! Hoping to have a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing really cool OCs and getting attacked.
I finally finished it! This is my first animation on Aseprite finally complete. I learned a lot :3
Can't wait to animate more on this app. I'm also just excited to make more pixel artworks in general.
Here's a WIP for my 2D Animation course, a montage of the 12 principles of animation. Still got a long way to tho haha

I have a TADC theory.
I have seen a lot of theories and fancomics on TikTok that shows that the cast has bodies to return to or there's a possibility they don't have a body to return to because of the time they've spent in the circus. There were some that also somewhat bought into the stasis pod thing from Episode 7 as if there was some truth to that.
Personally, I don't think the original bodies of the cast are attached to the headset or to any type of machinery. My theory is that everyone in the circus is a digital copy of their mind or conscience. So, that means at the time of wearing the headset, it scans the wearer's brain, creates a copy, and then sends it to the virtual world. The original body is unaware of this, they might just think they wore some weird gaming tech that caused nausea and headaches and they just leave to live the rest of their lives normally.
That also means the cast has no body to return to. Leaving the circus might permanently delete the copy and there's no way of getting their copy back because they were created by chance or luck. I think that's why Caine is so protective of the exit, he genuinely doesn't want to lose the people that end up in the circus because he loves humans so much.
Why don't the cast remember most of their life before entering the circus? I think that's just how the machine prioritizes how much data it wants to keep for the copy. Memories take up too much memory and space. They're all adults, I'd assume the average storage of a human mind's copy would take more than 100 terabytes. So, to save storage, it deleted everything that wasn't deeply ingrained in their brain and if it wasn't too much, some normal memories. That's why they still somewhat remember their life (the bar scene). Also, things like trauma stick to you forver, even in the subconscious, so it couldn't delete that. It risks damaging the copy.

The Sun/Moon Eaters in Philippine Mythology
A specific sub-set of mythical creatures in Philippine mythology.
Bakunawa
The Bakunawa is a serpent-like dragon in Philippine mythology. It is believed to be the cause of eclipses, earthquakes, rain and wind. It wa
According to the Visayan mythology of the Philippines, the Bakunawa (also spelled Baconaua) is a huge sea serpent believed to cause the eclipse by swallowing either the sun or the moon. In some tales it is described as having a mouth as wide as a lake. In ancient times, when an eclipse occurred the natives would create noise by banging household items, drums or other things, or play soothing music, for they believed that such sounds spooked the Bakunawa into regurgitating the moon or sun it swallowed. To this day, superstitious folks continue to practice creating noise during an eclipse.
Minokawa
One of the Sun/Moon Eaters in the Philippine Mythology
In Bagobo myth, the minokawa is responsible for the lunar eclipse. It was believed that this island-sized bird always tried to swallow the moon. To discourage it from consuming the moon completely, the people would make loud noise. Its abode is somewhere outside the eastern sky (probably space). This gargantuan bird has a beak and talons of steel, eyes like mirrors, and tough sharp feathers.
Arimaonga
422 votes and 1 comment so far on Reddit
The Maranao people used to blame the gigantic, four legged, and tiger-like arimaonga for eclipses. Whenever there was an eclipse, people thought the arimaonga was trying to eat the sun or the moon. The name arimaonga may have been derived from the Indonesian arimao meaning, âtigerâ.
Bawa
Philippine Mythology: Bawa, Western Visayas Moon Eater
A creature living in a sky cave. It flies out and swallows the moon when the food is scarce. Also known as Baua / Calulundan.
Tambanakawa
You've heard the tales of Bakunawa, the giant serpent who attempts to swallow the moon. But have you heard of the gargantuan crab named Tamb
The Mandaya and the Bukidnon people once believed that the lunar eclipse was caused by the tambanakawa or tambanokano, a gigantic crab in the sea, as it tried to devour the moon. Aside from lunar eclipse, it was also believed to create the seaâs tides and big waves by scuttling around. The Bukidnon people believe this huge crab from the mountains caused the great deluge by plugging the worldâs navel in the sea. The Manobo people, on the other hand, believe the tambanakawa is a huge spider or scorpion that attacked the moon once in a while in an attempt to eat it.
Sawa
There are some that want the world to experience the same darkness they do.
In other Tagalog lore and in the myths of the Ati of Panay, Sawa is a giant serpent that swallows the sun and causes eclipses.
Kedu
The moon-spirit escapes, and the cycle continues.
The natives of Maguindanao once believed that the eclipse was caused by the monstrous serpent kedu swallowing either the sun or the moon. The belief in the kedu is a Hindu influence which proliferated in some parts of Mindanao before the arrival of Islam. Kedu is derived from the Sanskrit Ketu. In Hindu myth, after the asura (demon) Svarbhanuâs head was cut off by Vishnu, his body joined with a snake and became Ketu. In Vedic astrology, when Ketu and Rahu, the bodiless head of Svarbhanu, align with the sun, moon, and Earth, eclipses occur.
Olimaw
Pray to those that listen
The Olimaw is the Ilocano Moon Eater. It is described as a: Winged Serpent, Phantom, Giant, Beast, Dragon. Its name is a cognate of Halimaw ('monster' in some Philippine languages) and Arimaonga (The Maranao Moon-eating lion)
Laho
The early Tagalogs believed that a monster called Laho ate the moon and that it was a dragon. Laho today means eclipse and anything that has
According to the myth of ancient Kapampangans, the laho or lawu (also spelled lahu) was a huge serpent that caused the eclipse by swallowing the sun or the moon. The ancient Kapampanganâs concept of the laho was derived from the Sanskrit Rahu after some Hindu-Buddhist beliefs were introduced and incorporated into the locality following the gradual settlement of Hindu-Buddhist-influenced immigrants in ancient times. In Vedic myth, Rahu is the severed head of the demon Svarbhanu, attempting to devour the sun and the moon.
ANALYSIS
Similarities:
The creatures share a certain kind of hostility towards the sun and moon, thus vowing to eat them.
Their stories are used to explain the phenomenon of eclipses. In connection with this, the people would make noises like scream and play gongs to drive the mythical creatures away.
Certain creatures are influenced by Hindu and Vedic myths.
Some have serpent-like bodies and depicted as dragon-like.
The origin of their appearances is usually related to the environment of the tribe who believed them.
Personal opinions:
Frankly, I've never experienced the practice of making noises whenever there's an eclipse. More or less, I adapted the western and scientific reminder of not looking too close at it or it will blind you - and if you want to, make sure to wear protective glasses. Another alternative would be placing a basin of water where the image can be reflected on the water's surface. Naturally, it's amusing that such practices exist in the superstitious realm of Philippine beliefs.
My personal favorites would be: Mikonawa, Arimaonga, and Tambanakawa. Mikonawa features a bird-like dragon (or dragon-like bird) with fiery feathers, and as someone who lives in the part of the Philippines from where the famous Philippine Eagle is hailed, and even reared and preserved in zoos because of its endangered status, its appearance and existence is closer to me than the rest. Arimaonga takes on a unique form, that of a tiger, despite the country not being a famous habitat for tigers. Turns out, for the Maranaos, they interpret solar eclipses as the sun eating the moon. With the sun's flare resembling a lion's mane, they conjured the image of the Arimaonga, who eats the moon during the phenomenon. It seems pretty interesting to me that the Maranaos swerved from the serpent-like depiction of the celestial eaters. At first, the Tambanakawa is intimidating in its size and appearance - a crab enlarged, its carapace shell wide and gigantic enough to cover an entire land as its big pincer-like claws tread the sand of the shore. Its a creature worth pissing in my pants if I ever see one, and I think, maybe, it is its magnanimity that enthralled me. I used to pick up little hermit crabs by the beach and compared to the Tambanakawa, their tiny size have always looked harmless to me. To be in the position of the hermit crab and picked up by the Tambanakawa though is a different story, although less likely since the myths do not involve stories of Tambanakawa eating people despite the temper associated to it (him). It only ever tries to swallow the sun, who is his mother in the stories. The Mikonawa has more chances of sweeping me off the land and gulping me down than the Tambanakawa. It also does not say that the Arimaonga eats people, only the moon. But it begs the question if it has consciousness enough to not eat people when, after all, the the moon herself is always depicted as a female deity. Does that mean I can pet the Arimaonga? I don't want to take my chances, but it'd be cool if I can.
Also, the Kedu is depicted like it wants to attract monsterfuckers.
im very grateful for the lessons in photography i was taught in stop motion class because just now they made it possible to photograph the stars with my phone in spite of the camera usually not detecting the light of stars because theyre so dim,,,, enjoy these shiny motherfuckers
ok so if everythings normal, your phone camera should have a manual mode (sometimes called pro mode). in it, change the settings of the shutter lag to 20 seconds, then put the phone down on some stable, plane surface and press the photo button (usually when using your camera, the volume buttons can be used as photo button) and let the phone still for the whole 20 seconds.Â
(basically the problem with most cameras is that they dont have a very good light sensitivity in the dark, however that doesnt mean they cant detect it at all. the longer the shutter is open, the more light your camera takes in and the more burnt/light your pic will be, so in (literally) dark situations, make the shutter lag longer to get all that light you need! also i said 20 seconds but really you can make it shorter or longer depending on what kinda stuff you want for your stars)
Yes this!
Additionally, adjust your ISO to the highest number (mimics the film used for very low light and low speed images)
And set your shutter speed to the longest time possible (on my phone itâs 10 seconds).
Leave your focus settings on Auto, and if your phone camera has a timer option, turn that on (five seconds is generally enough).
Plan your shot first, then find a place to set your phone down so you can get the image you want. The less light pollution, the better; youâll pick up FAR more stars in your picture.
Once you know what you want to shoot, tap your screen to âfocusâ it, then hit the button to take the picture, set your phone down, and back away from the âtripodâ. Donât touch your phone for a good 15 seconds, just to be sure.
You will not be disappointed in the results, let me assure you.
Not even a little bit.
@tamberland
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IâVE EVER LEARNED
This also works very well if you want to photograph the Northern Lights, especially if you have a tripod (since you shouldnât move it). Below is a pic a friend took with the ISO 800 and shutter speed 10 secs.

July is Disability Pride Month!Â
To participate I will be posting only relevant content this month.Â
Why Disability Pride Matters:
1. âdisabledâ is often treated as a bad word
2. invisibly disabled people are harassed due to narrow mindsets of what disability looks like. [ID: There are hand drawn pictures of a stick figure yelling at another stick figure standing by a wheel chair. end ID]
3. US disability financial aid forces disabled people into povertyâand all aid is stripped if you get married. [ID: drawn image of a dollar crossed out and a set of interlocked rings crossed out. end ID]
4. Ignorance is rampant around both physical and mental disabilities.
5. disability is regarded as a fate worse than death.
6. The world is largely still inaccessible. [ID: a drawn image of a stair case. end ID] ⊠and more
Why Disability Pride and BLM Coincide:
1. Doctors deny adequate treatment and pain management to black people [ID: a drawn image of a medicine bottle crossed out. end ID]Â
2. police disproportionately target, arrest, brutalize, and murder black disabled people. [ID: a drawn shield with the letters ACAB inside it]
3. black people are disproportionately disabled due to systematic racism in healthcare.Â
4. any discrimination a disabled person faces? double it if they are also black

Read this and save a life - YOUR OWN
From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:
Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:
1. Letâs say itâs 7.25pm and youâre going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. Youâre really tired, upset and frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4. Unfortunately you donât know if youâll be able to make it that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that weâll save at least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a personâs life.
12. If this message comes around you... more than once⊠please donât get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
please take the time and boost this post by reposting it and sending it to those you love because we all need to understand how to quickly deal with heart attacks
Hope you all stay safe.
