happy pride month !
I still don't think I can draw (sue me), but I am sharing them before I decide (again) that something is wrong lmao
Behold, Godric and Gideon, The Jousting Shark Knights (also known as baby's first venture into digital art)
Dropping them here as a test run before I share them on Insta lol
Also massive thanks to @sam-art21321 for 1) cursing me with the idea, 2) listening to me bitch and moan as I figure out Krita, and most importantly 3) invaluable (/gen) art advice
roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that
the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people
I would love to make one post about aotearoa without people bringing up hobbits on it to be so honest with you guys
listen I understand. they're amazing movies and I do think it's awesome that they were filmed here!!!!! but holy shit! it's the only thing anyone seems to be able to talk about when there is ANY discussion of these islands!! I would super love to be able to discuss our ecology, politics, culture, landscapes, and people without needing to hear about hobbiton every single time
I don't knowwww. it shouldn't be a huge deal but at the same time, the image an overwhelming amount of people have of aotearoa comes from those movies. our struggling ecosystems get overshadowed by fields and grassy hills and other non-native biomes that were explicitly chosen to depict the england-inspired fantasy land of middle earth. these same biomes only exist here because english settlers historically slashed and burned massive swaths of forest to create them, and now they're framed as famous and beautiful. mass deforestation of precious native forests. I don't know man. it annoys me juuuuust a little when every other post I make about this place gets a lotr joke plastered on it.
hey, do you have any cool facts about aotearoa i can pivot to when people bring it up in conversation
there are 53 volcanoes in the most populated city in the country
the largest eagle to ever exist (pouākai) was endemic to aotearoa
same with the tallest bird to ever exist (moa)
tuatara is only remaining species in the order sphenodontia and only exists here (for context- the other three extant reptile orders are snakes+lizards, turtles+tortoises, and crocodiles+alligators+caimans)
only two native land mammals and they're both tiny bats
kea is the only alpine parrot on earth
wētāpunga is the heaviest insect on earth
hard to condense into a quick "fun fact" but matariki is an incredibly celebration that has a lot of fascinating history and tradition behind it, totally worth researching!!
less of a fact more of a "check this out" but showing people photos of rotorua's geothermal areas is a favourite of mine
we were the first nation to give women the right to vote in 1893, almost a decade before any other country on earth!
we have the most colourful fungi out of anywhere on the planet!! this is due to our massive abundance of native birds. the fungi mimics the bright colours of fruit, causing birds to eat them!!
yep, pretty much
People talkig like ADHD folks jumping from hobby to hobby is a bad thing
My siblings in Christ, I have at least 4 different craft-based hobbies between which I jump like a deranged bunny on crack, successfully preventing burning myself out of one of them
Diversity is key 💅

Maybe if I just work harder, this empty cup will pour again
Maybe the cup needs a bit of time to rest and refill?
Maybe the cup needs to lock the fuck in???
How bad is it that every time I hear/see/remember Merlin's big finale speech, as he goes "Some men are born to plow fields" I ALWAYS expect there to be someone who continue it with "I was born to plow you, Arthur. And I wouldn't change a thing."
... BC you know that's exactly what Arthur was HOPING to hear but alas.
Alas.
And yes this has been my reaction since Christmas Eve 2012, I've got problems, I know, thanks.
@limbel MILA IM FUCKING SCREAMING AT THESE TAGS 😭😭😭😭
I love when a meme gets so many steps away from its source material that it would be completely incomprehensible if I didn't know what today's date was
It's the last day of April
Wake up babe, new meta layer just dropped
best polish phrase that doesn't exist in English: I have a battle task
Rip Merlin you would’ve have loved polyamory and Reddit forums
Rip Arthur you would’ve loved being in a frat and competitive sports
Rip Gwaine you would have loved hook up culture and antidepressants
Rip Uther you would’ve loved IVF and being racist on Facebook
Rip Lancelot you would’ve loved Matcha lattes and reading feminist literature
Finally watching Merlin and wowowoWOOWWWW this shit is gAYYYYYYY
Hollanov edit this, hollanov edit that
But has anyone already made an edit of them to "I Miss You" by Adele bc you cannot convince me it's not their song
