I'm gonna be honest for a second. I cant believe people still care about Taylor swift.

#''billionares are unethical! unless theyre my bestie TSwift in which case theyre fine''#''YEAH she uses her private planes for 15 minute trips and contributed more CO2 to the atmosphere in the last 3 months than #she did during the entire eras tour even after being called out on her excessive and irresponsible use of jets -- but she makes #fun music and she's pretty so its fine :) ''#''yeah she's had beef with practically every single female artist she's ever come in contact with and then used both the beef and their #eventual makeup as fodder for her media presence but like - who HASNT beefed with every single woman theyve ever met??''#''Yeah she's applied to have the entirety of madison square gardens and the surrounding syreets shut down for her wedding thereby #impacting the lives of an unknown number of NYC civilians who have nothing to do with her and probably no interest in her and just want to #get to work or go home but like. its for her DREAM WEDDING. come ON wouldnt YOU inconvenience thousands of #regular joe new yorkers just to have YOUR dream wedding??''#''yeah she has a predatpry business approach and literally milks her fans for every conceivable penny they have by releasing 10+ slightly #different versions of the same album in order to force fans to buy multiple copies of the same album if they want access to all the content #on it but thats just because shes a good business woman!! what - do you hate good business women???''#''yeah her dad funded her career launch and bought her way into the top ranking lists but she's a Self Made Woman and we have got #to support those in this patriarchal society!!!!''#''yeah her last several albums were largely garbage that were churned out rapidfire with no thought to quality but again she's LITERALLY #just trying to earn a living: like WHAT do you want her to do here?''#''YEAH she's actually always been the cheerleader she sung about all those years ago and she's never been the girl on the bleachers even #though she marketed her entire identity around being the Overlooked Sneaker-Wearing Girl Next Door but its just a brand of course she has a #brand''#like oh my god when will i be free from this woman.

yeah a man bun is a fuckass hairstyle but Shane having longer hair because through the safety net of being loved by Ilya so completely he feels secure enough to start breaking away from the very rigid grip he had over himself to perform to the expectations of traditional hockey player masculinity at all times is important to me

#Ok guys I know that hockey players having long hair is a thing! I worded this badly and didn't think this many people would see it #Tho I do stand by my point because Shane didn't have long hair till he knew Ilya loved him and that safety net is important #Because there is a difference between guys who thinks it makes them look more like vikings doing it #and someone who is constantly called pretty boy and worse more emasculating things when being chirped doing it #And also the fact that it is normal and people wouldn't have cared is interesting and important to me too #Because Shane is (rightfully) incredibly paranoid and crippling self-aware to a pathological and deluded degree #He is terrified of doing things that make him look gay even if they are things straight players do all the time #Also I feel like I should also come out here and now as a lover of long hair on men #it is the 2000s undercut man bun style and the people associated with it I hate #evidence that Shane feels the need to perform sterotypical hetro nhl masculinity is what the fuck do you mean when he drinks he drinks beer #and yeah you can do that without the man bun but if I had to choose between losing the man bun and losing all of that I would chose the bun #heated rivalry #shane hollander #hollanov #ilya rozanov #shane x ilya

Ascetic: An individual who renounces material comforts and leads a life of austere self-discipline, especially as an act of religious devotion.

Please watch Ersatz (on Youtube). Genuinely. It's so good. It's probably one of my favorite indie projects ever.

And, of course, the waxing poetic, vaguely threatening/intimidating toothy guy stole my heart the moment he popped on screen. I really hope we get to see a lot more with him.

#ersatz #fanart #the ascetic #clownsaint #my art #genuinely i adore him #he's so pretty and SO fun to draw like that face??? yes #spent so much time on just his face simply because i enjoyed it #also this is based off of my own ideas and interpretations #lots of symbolism for how I see things #and yeah I did have to make three different alternatives because i can #i put a lot of effort into this people need to see the details #also whats black and white and red all over #lol

Maindronia beieri and Adamsiana sp.

Psychopsis mimica and Enchoptera nigricornis

Menidon falcatus and Celyphus sp. (pretty identifiable as flies still but christ just look at these things)

Unidentified hemipteran and Penicillidia conspicua (I'm familiar with hippoboscoids but again this would feel wrong not to include)

Scaphidomorphus bosci and Peloridora kuscheli

Paralecanium sp. (I know scale insects but it gets to a point. You are a 2D object) and Formiscurra indicus

Gardena melinarthrum and Dorymyrmex sp.

Lagrecacanthops guyanensis and Caurinus tlagu

#There are many other weird looking bugs out there but I would still be able to tell what order they are pretty easily #Avoided including many larvae because that's a different ball game #Only one hym because I know every hymenopteran personally of course #Gallforming #Bugs #Bugblr #Insect #Insects

He's all grown up!!!

#there are a couple headcanons i didn't include just because i'm not sure about them #but i'm pretty happy with how this turned out :>#i really don't make these little bio things as much as i should #i'm mostly just bad at coming up with words #hence why i only have one work posted on ao3 #maybe that will change soon lol #ANYWAY.#my plan with this was to try to honor the original ash as much as i could #just because there's a lot about that version that i prefer (i don't like most of his modern outfits)#but i think the main goal was to make him less baby. without sacrificing too much of the art style (everyone in pokémon looks twelve to me)#but hopefully it's a good in between!!!!!! i like it #pokemon #pokémon #ash ketchum #pokémon au #??#oh wait #pokeani #<- i think i forgot to tag that one before #OH and just to clarify about that other tag i do mean EVERYONE. even like. the old people #i think i've been away from anime for too long and i've gotten accustomed to more realistic/exaggerated art styles #i mean. anime is exaggerated but in completely different ways #but it throws me off. where are everyone's wrinkles #freckles doodles

Bruce has insanely sharp canines for no reason, and no matter what he does to get rid of them, they keep coming back.

Whether or not it’s because Bruce isn’t as entirely human as he thought (overtime from protecting Gotham or from the very start) or because he’s just like that, they’re really cool looking and dangerously sharp to anyone but himself.

All the kids are going through some old photo books, and they come across Bruce as a teen with Harvey and Harley, and he has a devilish grin on his face that none of them have seen before.

Steph waves the photo around with an expression of glee. “Whoa, B man, you have fangs in this picture!”

Cass takes the picture from Steph’s hand and scrutinizes it. “They look very realistic.”

“Well-“

“Dad, you also have fangs in this, but you’re a baby. I know Photoshop didn’t exist back then.” Tim drapes himself over Bruce’s legs and holds up two pictures.

One is of baby Bruce starting to teethe with his canines more developed than anything else in his mouth. The second picture was of toddler Bruce smiling happily in Martha’s arms while Thomas stood off to the side with a bloody arm and two little puncture marks from Bruce’s teeth. Both of his parents are smiling the exact same way he is.

“They’re real.”

“But… you don’t have fangs, Dad.” Dick frowned, forcibly opening Bruce’s mouth till the older man shook his hands away and raised an eyebrow at his eldest.

“Oh yeah, I file them down from time to time cause Alfred says they’re unsightly. He hates them.” Bruce shrugs his shoulders, taking the pictures and carefully placing them back in their sleeves.

And Bruce has never thought anything more about it; it’s been that way ever since he can remember. But from the horrified and worried looks on his kids’ faces, maybe he should.

When he actually sits down and thinks about it, he realizes he would never ask his kids to hide away a part of themselves just cause it would be seen as ‘unsightly’.

It hurts him in ways he can’t yet explain to himself that Alfred didn’t like a part of himself and forced him to change it from a very young age. Bruce loved how his teeth looked; it made him unique, and his parents loved it, but Alfred’s disdain and barely concealed annoyance killed that love for himself.

Yes, maybe he would’ve gotten comments from the media, but with support from the only adult in his life, he would’ve overcome it easily.

Bruce can’t help but wonder if Alfred did it for his benefit or because he hated that part of him and wanted Bruce to bury it.

With soft encouragement from his kids over the course of a few weeks and no interference from Alfred (he was skillfully kept away from Bruce by the kids), Bruce doesn’t file them down and lets his canines grow out.

Turns out the public loves his teeth, and they have a whole week special in the gazette celebrating the return of his fangs and how the Wayne vampire theories were returning with full force.

Seeing the outpour of love not only from the public but from his loved ones further solidifies the idea that Alfred just fucking despises him or something.

Alfred has never and will never freely give Bruce an insight into his mind (something Bruce, unfortunately, learned from him), so Bruce can only wonder why Alfred couldn’t love him. All of him. Why did he only focus on what he perceived as flaws?

Maybe a bit of protective Batkids who need to remind Bruce that he is pretty. Like when your mom makes a comment on how ugly she is and you’re just shocked and appalled because she’s the most beautiful woman in your eyes.

Good luck making him believe it though #This is another moment where the Batkids have to step back and separate Grandpa Alfred and Parent Alfred to understand Bruce #It makes them physically sick sometimes how different it was for Bruce growing up than they initially thought. All bad habits come from him #They're forced to reconcile with the fact that Alfred's actions caused Bruce to be the way he is today. And that isn't entirely a good thin #What a peculiar balance of being objectified and sexualized since he was a minor and believing he’s ugly and unlovable
