the world's smallest carnivore is called the "least weasel" 😭😭 i'm dying but like if it's the smallest carnivore then it sure is the least amount of weasel you can have 😭😭😭

[sator-the-wanderer]

Look at him: this is absolutely the least amount of weasel you can have

AI toys for young children need tighter rules, researchers warn

In first study of its kind, Cambridge researchers found AI toys could misread some children's emotions.

hey can you do me a favour?? Can you go get that nice pristine sketchbook or journal you've been hoarding and put some kind of mark on the first page? Anything will do, like a smudge of graphite or a blob of ink, or perhaps a very scribbly dinosaur. Just put something there. Please, or the dinosaur will be sad.

[bioluminescent-fungus]

I was SO SAD for this dinosaur that I grabbed the nearest notebook (a calendar) and drew a little sailing ship for him

[pterribledinosaurdrawings]

oh thank goodness!

IT’S OKAY IF YOU MESS IT UP

SKETCHBOOKS ARE FOR MESSING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pterribledinosaurdrawings]

THEY ARE!!!! It's right in the name! Like @sleepnoises said a while ago, they're for the quick putdowning of ideas! to catch the stuff that comes out of your brain! (I don't mean to say that pretty sketchbook pages are bad, but it's important for your health to do quick scribbly stuff too. if not in a book then perhaps on small scraps of paper)

The dinosaur is very glad to see so many doodles in the notes! Also lots of comments with very good suggestions for people who have a hard time starting, like starting on the second page, just signing & dating it, numbering the pages, or using the first page to put samples of all your usual pencils and pens and such.

Here's how I started my new sketchbook, which I got for 5 dollars at Dollarama. I would have drawn on that first blank page instead of just signing it, but it was partially glued to the endpaper and wouldn't lie flat.

(Also, since the sketches are about making velvet mites with little wired legs, I must mention that if/when I get around to doing that it'll be posted on @vincentbriggs where all my non-dinosaur arts go.)

[pterribledinosaurdrawings]

ok here is the mite, finally finished! More pics on my other blog.

[pterribledinosaurdrawings]

oh gosh did I forget to update you on the mite? I made another one and filmed it a few months ago.

... Vincent... Is... Is your notebook cover an Imagine Dragons pun? 😭

[pterribledinosaurdrawings]

No, it's a monster (no wings! not a dragon!) and I was just trying to cover up the writing the book cover came with.

breaking news! new beautiful photo of the best species of frog in the world just dropped

[werewolf-transgenderism]

for everyone in the notes lamenting that this guy is poisonous: they are not! they're just pretty :) since they're a glass frog, their major defense mechanism is being translucent and hiding their blood while they sleep so they look extra translucent and blend in with leaves <3
