hello octonauts fandom... i've been thinking about the octonauts and how they're surviving given that most of them are obligate carnivores...
Through minimal research, I learned that one of the things cats really need from meat and stuff is taurine. And apparently seaweed and algae contains taurine!! This makes sense with all the kelp and algae products the octonauts eat!
Cats can't get everything they need from plants due to their disgestive systems, but all their food is already processed I imagine to extract all the goodies!
And more specifically with cats and seaweed: the pirate stew recipe!!! Specifically kelp and idk what kelp has in in but uhhh. Given that pirates seem to (at least, often) be cats, it makea sense they'd have all those recipes to process what they need
The real question is would most pirates just eat meat.
At this point ive just accepted octonauts pirates are NOT real world pirates. I've come to the conclusion that its a people/culture that originated as explorers who survived by trading at ports. Gathering on islands, growing what they could on their ships with their special methods, and gathering from the sea.
Due to the scarcity of resources on the open sea however many of them turned to thievery, to the point it became their reputation and what they are known for mainstream. Calico jack famously continuing to associate himself with being a pirate even though it has so many negative associations because. He wants others born pirates to know that they can still partake in that heritage without doing all those terrible things.
Really in octonauts kwazii acts like pirates are amazing awesome people, so within the show it doesn't really make sense to have this negative interpretation of pirates. HOWEVER. there is one line in one episode i read in to way too much: the episode with the leafy seadragons where kwazii is making the aforementioned pirate stew and the poor seadragons think he's going to kill them.
And when he realizes they're not kelp one says “dont hurt us” and he says “im not gonna hurt you i thought u were kelp." And one says “but ur a pirate." (I'm not gonna use that as evidence because clearly through the stew making process they've gotten across that pirates destroy kelp)
and kwazii!!! Doesnt say anything like oh i wouldnt do that pirates wouldnt do that. He says and i quote: “I'm also an Octonaut and Octonauts help little critters like you.”Which totally definitely confirms that his identity as an octonaut directly counteracts the typical association with a pirate. Cough thus is extremely weak i know 😭)
I did some makeup... Spend an hour on it and it's almost 10:00 PM.. Lol!!!! If you don't like clowns do not look under the cut!!!
genuinely how do i draw anthro mammals without just making them emotionless creature or The Animal
[ID: Un-coloured, full body doodles of Kwazii, a tabby cat, and Tweak, a rabbit. The second image is bust shot doodles of Tracker and Captain Barnacles, two polar bears, where Barnacles is drawn more realistically. End ID.]
i do like how tracker turned out though
Why so much fish
why not?
edit: i didnt make this i found it online 👍
for all my picky miis who don't know what's good for them
[ID: Screenshots of the front and back of a custom t-shirt in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream. It is black with white and purple text. The front says: "I am an ungrateful brat, a picky hater, who does not appreciate all the gnorbel does for me." The text is formatted poorly, "brat" and "hater" are in all caps, and "the" is misspelled. The back says, in all caps" "booooo. whimsy hater [end all caps]. i have no taste for fashion." "Whimsy" is misspelled, and "taste for fashion" is in a different, fancier font. End ID.]
my oc hiro
image description in the alt text, but i'll put it here too just in case:
[ID: Two digital drawings of male character with lighter skin wearing a yellow dino themed hoodie with one blue sleeve and one red sleeve. Each sleeve has spikes in the opposite colour. He has orange reddish hair with a tiny braid and a messy bun. The drawing on the left in a simple, messy doodle of him standing. His arms are raised in the sort of t-rex pose, and he is looking down at them with dot eyes. There is a thinking bubble that reads: "comfy." To the right is a half-body shot of him in three-quarters view, facing the right. It is shaded a bit messily with a lot of colours. His hood is up, and it has spikes of alternating red and blue. His eyes are closed, and he's making a silly angry cat smile expression. His arm closest to us is raised, fingers splayed, with a black fingerless glove. He has a scar on the farther side of his face, that goes from his cheek to a bit under his nose. End ID.]
