I do something, I don't know what, but it is something. It's probably art. I think. Maybe. Digital Art tag will help you find them ig. (I also have a bluesky and youtube under the same @!)
I realize I should probably say to check the "digital art" tag on my blog. It's got some good stuff from other people and also my own things, and it's probably good to have this here if I want more people to see it💀💀
I feel like my crocodile mom can protect my wife and girlfriend and my friend and that random old woman from the other crocodile while I rescue the money.
ok im cleaning under my bed, right, bc it was lowkey a cesspool of random shit under there im gonna be real JSDKLJFKLSFJLS
anyway
i find some old poetry
im simultaneously laughing at how cringe and emo it was bc i was 15-16 when i wrote it so... 💀💀💀self explanatory
but also a part of me lowkey thinks i was onto something
anyway in honor of pride month im deciding im going to transcribe the crumpled handwritten papers onto tumblr and let my mutuals decide if this meme should be used unironically or ironically or both 🔥🔥🔥
doing a keep reading underneath it JKLDFJSLKFJ
ok so this first one was actually done for poetry club bc i was in the poetry club at my high school JSKDLFJSLKFJSKF a guest poet came in and showed us this "10 things to know about being x in a y world" poem iirc and she wanted us all to write our own poem like that and so thats what this poem is. i also remember that she wanted us all to share the titles of our poems and so since mine was Very on the nose as yall shall see in a second, i declined to share and it was uncomfortable bc she pressured me and was like "do you feel safe with me? with us?" and i remember just kinda sitting there like that gif of the kid with the soda cup looking back and forth before she finally moved on 💀anyway, here goes gang (please bear in mind i was 16 SDJKLFJ)
"10 things to know about being shy and overemotional in a loud, shallow world"
(💀yall see why i didnt say ts out loud in front of 20 people?) (great subtlety, 16 year old me)
you'll count the rain as a friend since you know your mind is a cloud, and you're prone to raining too.
the world is a fiery blaze, and they don't like your water. you'll learn to drape the tresses of your mermaid hair over your cloudy eyes to cover the tears falling.
many things will make you cry, but some will not. sometiems your emotions will drown your chest, and fill you up with their intensity, but you will learn to swim.
the thunder will scorn you for your raindrops. it'll scoff, "does this really require this level of emotion?!" and yell, "stop being selfish! don't you dare cry!" you'll learn to get an umbrella so they cannot see.
the thunder that scares you makes even gentle flowers that bloom from you look like poisonous buds, ready to stop your heart. sometimes you'll let your umbrella down and share your rain- other times you wont.
youll enjoy your clouds and your umbrellas. youll find it hard to share your water with anyone- but they can still see.
your head will always be in the clouds, and your rain will lighten to the melodies of other's rains. the dreams that lie on the clouds will beckon you, and you will gladly join them.
sometimes the storms will intensify so much that it seems it will never be over. sometimes you'll want to let your head slip under.
don't go under.
you'll learn
(i think i wanted to write more bc i didnt finish this one with a period but time was called bc we only had a set amount of time to write this bs sdjlfksjflsj but i almost think leaving it at youll learn ends it more powerfully than whatever other melodramatic bs i was going to say)
this is the second one which was just done on my own and its free verse and also its lowkey one of those instagram line break poems so 💀sorry LSKDJFKLSDJFSD
"my shaggy black dog"
my shaggy black dog,
loyal to the end,
always follows me.
sometimes she is trailing me far away,
like a comet slowly leaving the grip of the sun's gravity.
other times she is an asteroid, plunging towards my planet.
she will lie in my lap,
and lick my face,
and crush me.
she will be with me forever.
she is tied to my soul.
we are drawn to each other like moons to planets.
but i know one day i will snap.
i will cut her leash from my hand.
her powerful body is slowly dragging me to death,
like a moth to a flame it will be scorched in.
one day i will slice her away from me.
we will both fade like ghosts into mist,
but my spirit will be free of
my shaggy black dog.
...if you read this far, thank you and im sorry LSKDJFKSLFJ but id also be curious to see what you thought of 16 year old me's melodrama when it was wildly apparent that my prefrontal cortex was about as raw as an egg in utero 💀now id say its like a soft boiled egg JSKLDJFLKJF
Hi!! I'm new to Paldea, moved here to photograph and document wildlife. I had a quick question about the Maschiff line!
During the week I decided to focus on them for a project, I believe I saw a shiny Mabosstiff! It was significantly larger than the other Mabosstiff I've seen, which got me wondering: since the shiny gene affects different species in unique ways, does the shiny gene in the Maschiff line make them larger? Or was this one just spoiled as a puppy and got most of the milk? 😂
I've decided to call it Cosmo and study from afar. What a magnificent beast!
how lucky! i love the color of shiny mabosstiff, it's such a pretty purple.
the shiny gene is not associated with the genes that impact a pokemon's size. cosmo is just big because that's how its genetic dice landed. pokemon can have pretty significant size differences- i know someone with a bayleef that will likely be over 130 kg if it evolves- so cosmo just lucked into being both exceptionally big and oddly colored.
i will say that cosmo's size has probably helped it survive to evolution! while shininess in the maschiff line isn't known to inherently affect their health, shiny maschiff are known to get chased off from packs more regularly than non-shinies. being large gives cosmo a leg up when it comes to defending itself and maintaining its place in a pack!
