Avatar Picrew made and offered by my amazing boyfriend takusen801 — Mainly reblogging… Art oriented (drawing, webcomics, pictures) sparkled with nature and science. Oh yeah and GAY stuffing too (HAH!) coz I'm gay.
So, they say it’s Spring today? Really? If those still bare tall trees (maple tree, purple beech tree) are any indication, it doesn’t look like it is… Anyway, here are the first pictures fabriqué en my garden: plum tree, unidentified yellow flowers, forsythia tree and viola.
Donc, il paraît que c'est le printemps? Vraiment? À voir les grands arbres (érable, hêtre pourpre) toujours nus, on ne dirait pas… Enfin, voici les premières photos de fleurs made in mon jardin: prunier, fleurs jaunes non identifiées, forsythia et violette.
there aren’t enough posts going around about the swedish cryptid known as the skvader which is a rabbit with pheasant wings and also a very good boy.
like this one dude just made a fake taxidermy and spread it around as a hoax for a good ass while and it lead to this really cool fantasy creature and i am genuinely dissapointed that it never gets used in anything
THE BOY
Rabbirds, by the amazing @tkingfisher/Ursula Vernon (source).
The lack of skvaders is particularly frustrating when you realize it forms the third point of a wonderful cryptid trifecta.
You got the jackalopes, which are rabbits with antlers.
And you got the wolpertingers, which are rabbits with antlers and wings.
And then… what? Do you escalate? That’s unbalanced, those two rabbit cryptids don’t have the same number of extra things, the wolpertinger is clearly the jackalope But More.
BUT with the skvader on the other side, balance is restored. Antler rabbit, winged rabbit, winged antler rabbit. It’s a classic Venn diagram of imaginary lapine beasts, and it’s only complete if you acknowledge the fucking skvader.
Good thing Ursula’s got our back, at least.
This is a really excellent point and I applaud your advancements in Cryptid Theory.
So, y’all. Some of you may remember a webcomic called NIMONA. It actually started on tumblr! Then it became a full webcomic. And then it got published as a graphic novel.
It’s done by ND Stevenson, who was behind tumblr-favorite She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. Also notable for the lady lumberjack story, Lumberjanes.
NIMONA was the first big one. Delightfully queer and vitally anti authoritarian and very tumblr through and through. (There is a character literally named Ambrosious Goldenloin, pictured on the left there.)
Many years ago Netflix announced that it would be making a NIMONA film. Then it went silent. Then the mass cancellations happened.
Then, today, they announced the film is coming out on June 30th.
ALT
Will it be a retelling if the original? Will it be a prequel? A new derivative story? No idea. But it’s important to me. And it’s made by queerfolk, openly, aggressively queerfolk, who have never hesitated to tell queer stories.
So I wanted to get info out on this. Get people hyped. Because marketing engines certainly won’t. We need to remind corporations that we are a statistically significant “consumer demographic” and that queer stories can and do sell, and shouldn’t be shuttered away.
So. Yeah. Consider buying and reading the original, consider watching the film.
The comic is relatively short, so jumping right in and giving it a shot is your best bet. But the tldr is, a an extremely tighly-moraled, long-code-of-honor Supervillain and a chaotic, not so honorable shapeshifter end up teaming up up to fight against the “good guys.”
Y’all on tumblr love the short stories on the writing prompts about “what happens when the supervillain realizes [thing is bad?] and ends up being a dad figure who might be willing the burn the world down a bit? The NIMONA comic is very much that.
No idea what the film will be like, but hey!
Coming on Netflix June 30th!
Guess I know what I’m streaming on my last day before my cancellation goes into effect.
Just got done watching it. Cried like a baby. Beautiful!
all cops are bastards because all cops are just doing their jobs
“I’m just doing what I’m told. If I am ordered to remove gold fillings from refugees theeth then that’s what I’ll do”, says police officer Michael Hansen.
Just thought I’d add this since not a lot of people outside of the nordic countries seem to have seen it. This is a danish police officer discussing a new danish law that says the police should seize the possesions and money of refugees to finance the integration.
He uh, skipped awful quickly to “stealing gold fillings” didn’t he?
“The harm to the institution is entirely self-inflicted by Roberts and his ethically challenged majority. The court continues to take on flawed cases that have no business being heard, and making arbitrary rulings based on their political whims, dressed up in originalist fantasies. It has to be stopped That could include enforcing a code of ethics, legislation the Senate Judiciary Committee is going to take up after the July recess, and measures recommended by the Brennan Center, such as limiting justices’ terms to 18 years and ensuring that each president gets two appointments to the court per presidential term. It would create a revolving core of justices, giving those whose terms were up the chance to take senior status and still participate as needed either on the Supreme Court or on a lower court. All of that would be great, but what the country urgently requires is an expansion of the court to block this six-member wrecking ball.”
this shit pisses me off like how do you know he’s not taking a break he could have been gaming for hours on end that shit is not healthy for your wrists he probably just paused the game to rest his eyes and hands and spend some time with the people around him but now hes being made fun of. do better
