Watercolor flowers !! I’m still super inexperienced with watercolor but i wanted to paint some flowers so i did, and i’m pretty happy with how they turned out!! no real shading bc i was scared i’d ruin it lmao

i painted a sunflower, tiger lily, red chrysanthemum, daisies, blue phlox, black-eyed susans and violets as well as some general greenery too

went to a museum to be performative today (draw in public <\3)

these are of specimens from Christopher Marley’s Exquisite Creatures, i had to draw something from there, there was just so much color and beauty honestly

this is eyes, nicknamed because they have patterns that resemble eyes. i based them off of malachite bc malachite is my favorite and i vibe with it. the only thing i have so far is that they are the type of dude to stand there and just unnervingly stare at people till they do something. i would probably say he’s a researcher of some kind just because of his staring thing, it makes sense to me

the heat wave has reached the Eridian biodome!!!

(I wasn't going to draw anything this fourth of july weekend, but it's SO hot that I had to hide in my room and draw something until it got cool enough to go swim)

why can rockstar games institutionalise you for life like nikita kruschev for being autistic

He didn't steal 10 million dollars. They made that number up as a loss, they never fucking had it. Rockstar has spent more than a billion fucking dollars on GTA VI and will likely make billions more when it gets released.

Uber is a fucking shell game of a company designed to leech investor capital and output bootleg cabs.

Nvidia posted a profit in 2023 of $4.37 billion. This is like someone stealing less than a penny from me.

And they lock this kid in a prison hospital for LIFE?

Capitalism is disgusting.

Nobody should buy GTA til they free Arion Kurtaj

What with GTA VI going up for pre-order i'd just like to remind everyone that rockstar conspired with the UK government to lock an 18-year-old away for life for hacking them.

anyways, i wanted to open commissions while i'm job hunting, and i feel like my art has improved since the last time i did commissions so i wanted to try again lol. I'm newer to drawing anthros but i'll still give it my best effort !! i'll do anything, but if it involves multiple characters maybe keep it to 2-3, just so i don't get overwhelmed Imao

i’d prefer if those interested would message me on my art instagram ( @/the_gender_pirate ), that way i’m sure to see your message! i take payment through venmo

shares are appreciated :)

I love that Rocky is a bland beige rock with too many limbs and no face! I love that he's so unmarketable and goes against the rules of character design principles!! Yet he is SO beloved!!! he sparks joy in millions!!!! In times where big corps try to replace art with the most boiled-down-edges-smoothened slop thats supposed to appeal to everyone and in doing so: appeals to no-one-- We have Rocky. I love you Rocky.

important that you never forgive ice agents, ever. even years after all this is over (and I do believe we will make it out on the other side, alive and for the better,) they live in shame and disgrace forever. no excuses, no forgiveness. they ruined their own lives when they decided that human freedom and liberty was an acceptable sacrifice for a paycheck

happy pride! remember that being a transgender is everything but fiction. there are so many real historical figures from every century about whose transgender identities we aren't even aware of

Now THIS is art. 😍

“When I first saw the original painting, I began to do some research on that little boy. I could find everything I wanted about every other detail in the painting, but there was nothing about him. No history. And so I wanted to find a way to imagine a life for this young man that the historical painting had never made space for in the composition: his desires, dreams, family, thoughts, hopes. Those things were never subjects that the original artist wanted the viewer to contemplate. In order to reframe the discussion, I decided to physically take action to quiet [and crumple] the side of the painting that we’ve been talking about for a very long time and turn up the volume on this kid’s story. And that’s the reason why I started that painting.” Via Artnet News 2019/03/27

it’s about that time again <:3

it was a stroke of genius to give James T Kirk a bitchy flip phone in the 60's, truly amazing to watch him slam it shut like a pissed off socialite girl in 2000's teen shows

The largest mass shooting in American history was a hate crime against gay people. Don’t ever forget that.

June 12, 2016. Putting a date on this for when it gets reblogged months from now by people who think the post is about something from 30, 40 years ago.

I am a survivor of the Pulse nightclub shooting, having grown up in Orlando and just turned 20 a month prior. If you didn’t know, there were several families who refused to claim the bodies of their relatives due to their sexuality. One family even had their relative’s name removed from the memorial. Murdered by the same hate with which their families reject them in both life and death.

Many, many people celebrated Pulse. We were told we deserved it. That it was God’s punishment for our sin of loving the same sex. We are sent messages like these I received in 2018:

We in the community often call the victim count 49+ to include the survivors who couldn’t live with the pain.

The event was never officially declared a hate crime or targeted homophobic attack and is rarely listed as one in databases.

At our vigils for those slaughtered, Extremist Christian groups showed up to protest, holding signs like this:

ID: Me kissing a woman I was casually seeing in front of an angry looking man with a “Sodomy is Sin” sign.

Please understand how much more than just a mass shooting this was. We are still to this day harassed and told we deserved it by some.

This year was the sixth anniversary. The first couple years I received dozens of messages checking in on me on 6/12. Year 5 got enough news coverage for people to think to reach out to me. This year it was my therapist, the woman I kissed in that photo, and a couple of other gun violence survivor friends. People are forgetting already.

With the 7 year anniversary <2 weeks away, I figured I’d reblog this
