@the-greenest-bean submitted: I found this guy in [removed] (please remove location) and it sort of looks like a caterpillar but very small.

Caterpillars can definitely be this small! They are absolutely minuscule when they hatch out of their eggs. This friend, though, is not a caterpillar. It’s an Asian lady beetle larva :)

LIFE in its place!!!!!!!!!!

Life to lawns! Life to empty mowed expanses! Life to neglected outskirts and stretches of turfgrass! Life to empty black mulch! Life to concrete and compacted soil! LIFE BE UPON YOU

it's been exactly 2 months since i started this whole phase of silly bug doodles. thats a lotta bugs! i still really need cash to replace my dying car and also now to buy airfare to see my partner and family for the holidays so if you wanna throw me $5 to draw a bug or other invert of your choosing that would be very cool. be sure to include which bug you want in the ko-fi message.

if you wanna pay me a bit more than $5 i can put a little extra pepper on the doodle or give it a funny hat or whatever. if you want something more specific or complicated then just DM me to work out the price.

as before, if you wanna use any of the above designs as tattoos, feel free but it would be awfully nice to send me a tip on kofi if you do so.

[bowelfly]

Oh okay so i've been sending everyone their commissioned bugs over ko-fi's private message system but just learned that if you donated without having an account on there the messages don't go anywhere? so if you commissioned a bug from me and never heard back, it's definitely up there somewhere. and if you're thinking of buying a bug doodle you should probably either make an account or leave some means of contacting you if you want to see the bug as soon as its done instead of waiting until ive done enough to fill out one of these compilation canvases

also any bug comms between now and the end of november will probably take longer than usual to turn around on account of life stuff

I had never heard of this character before, but it really was published over a hundred years ago. Here’s a comics blog talking about her, and a couple more gems:

It's hard to believe that this blog has been running over a dozen years now, and I am just now getting around to mak
