Trying to hone my art style looking for notes / feedback.

[fee-eef]

writers and readers,

how do we feel about angstiness? when is it too much?

thoughts?

[jade-dolphi]

Honestly angst is fun to write. I never really get any "negative" feedback from it.

Important reminder

[geeky-fuckery]

This reminds me of the fact that "Ancient Egypt" goes back so many thousands of years, that the most recent "Ancient Egyptians" were already studying (even more) Ancient Egypt.

[charlesoberonn]

Not even the most recent ones. It was an Egyptian prince from the 13th century BCE studying and restoring artifacts from the 26th century BCE.

[charlesoberonn]

For context, the last Pharaoh, Cleopatra VII, lived in the 1st century BCE. Prince Khaemweset, known as "the first egyptologist", was as ancient to her as the pyramids and tombs he was studying were ancient to him.

[theaudientvoid]

I remember having me mind completely blown when I learned that the "New Kingdom" was pre-Bronze Age Collapse.

[oxeanic]

This has totally be mentioned in another fork of this post, but it reminds me quite a bit of Ennigaldi-Nanna's museum, a museum in Ur, c. 530 BC, which housed mesopotamian artifacts dating back in some cases to the 20th century BC

I would've actually avoided a near death experiance without modern medicine. Like I'd literally be better off without it.

Reblog to give the person you reblogged this from a Croissant (🥐).

writers pls drop the weirdest single word or phrase you've put in your writing recently

i need to expand my vocabulary

[jade-dolphi]

"The air was cold and sharp as a needle, anesthetizing any signs of life."

IDK if this is the kinda thing you meant but I like this word picture

[jade-dolphi]

My favorite of my collectable books

Yes I technically "broke up" the collection because volume one of the older was excessively damaged so I bought a slighly newer volume one.

[smelliza]

when are they going to euthanise me

[jade-dolphi]

I need help I have a meme stuck in my head. I only remeber this bit "You water _, you water the _ forever!"

It was a clip, possibly a vine. The guy had a thick accent that I think was imitating his parents, some sort of asian accent. Google is failing me.

rb this with a picture/drawing/pintrest photo of/representing your oc, and I’ll make horrendous assumptions about them

[fee-eef]

here’s mine, he’s the one in the middle on the picture on the left. this is for anyone who wants revenge :)

[jade-dolphi]

The kind of person that stores glasses upright in cabinets instead of upsidedown.

Probably plays a nerd instrument like the flute.

Never has a problem correcting someone, but more often then not just end up embarassed that they are the ones who are incorrect.

Does not, in fact, know how to change and tire.

Might know how to jumpstart a car but is too squeemish around the jumper cables to actually do it.

bro just wants to get back to their 9-5 job but all these crazy adventures and inconveniences are preventing them from doing so

I expect this person to be the most normal person thrown into the craziest out of this world scenarios lol

[jade-dolphi]

Haha! I mean besides the fact that his 9-5 is managing the crazy adventurers and making sure they makie it back with minimal property damage, pretty spot on!

Gront Complex

A Gront Complex (plural Gront Complexes) is a sapient lifeform composed of two symbiotic species. One lifeform resembles small cone-shaped jellyfish, each only a few millimeters long. These eusocial lifeforms function as a colony, with each individual contributing to the health of the colony and the symbiotic species that protect it.

The other component of the Gront Complex is what one might consider the 'host' of the colony. These creatures are mostly gelatinous in nature, protected by three distinct shells, similar in appearance to those that belong to Turban Snails.

The Gront Complex as a whole considers itself a singular complete being created by the joining of the two species. It has been observed how a Gront Complex is able to consume and digest food with the help of the colony, how the other lifeform respirates and disposes of toxins naturally produced by the colony. However, the 'host’ does not appear to have any sort of brain or nervous system separate from the colony. It is undoubtable, though, based on their technological advancement and ability to communicate high level ideas, that these creatures are sapient. Due to their sensitivity to Galactic Standard atmospheric conditions, and perhaps as a response to a centuries-old plague introduced by contact with other species, many choose to inhabit cybernetic suits designed to mimic the body plans of whatever other species happens to be the most common in an environment.
