Leaning more into that anime/manga style I like. As I was coloring it in I noticed a really cool way to manipulate the gradient tool. Absolutely love this dance of pixels. With college coming up I expect I won't have as much time to upload.

Kiri the Wasp Reference Sheet
Reference sheet for my partner, Okay_Kiri_Kiri's main-character, Kiri. *I realized long-after finishing this ref that the lil' headshots I added of my girlfriend, Parker and I are very misleading, my bad! Parker and Kiri AREN'T in a relationship with each other, but both are with me!

I drew this after seeing someones art on twitter. It inspired me, Sadly didnt catch the artists name. Did a couple of experimental things and it all turned out decently! I've seen this kind of design floating around before and dont actually know if its its own species or just a really fluffy canine xD Maybe someone in comments can tell me.

One of these days I’m gonna write an anthromorphic personification of death who’s a total sadist who revels in the pain and suffering caused by unceremoniously hauling people away from their loved ones with no opportunity for closure. This will not actually be a revolutionary or novel take but the prominence of Discworld Death and Sandman Death in the Nerd Cultural Mileu will make it feel novel.

"You could kill a medieval peasant with a dorito and tiktok videos!" No a medieval peasant could kill you with their 6 years service in the kings army and regular farm chores. What you COULD kill a peasant with is neon food coloring and really strong laser

My sinuses are in open revolt so I've missed a couple days' worth of amphibians, but here's one for the prompt 'newt'.
[ID: A pixel drawing of an anthropmorphic newt wearing clothes and a hat. There is a speech bubble that reads 'She turned me into a newt!' /ID]

Ok I can only remember the bee pissing scene from bayverse, tell us about the subtext of his muteness 🎙
Those are… not unrelated, astonishingly! lmao.
It's long been noted by people watching the films that Bee, especially in the first few Bayverse films, is often treated differently to both the human characters and the other Autobot characters, in ways that become quite strange when you think about them for any real length of time. The first two Bayverse movies especially present a very particular masculine adolescent coming-of-age fantasy, and a part of that is the way they kind of blend both 'a boy and his car' and 'a boy and his dog' narratives seen in American fiction of that type. With Bumblebee being both 'the car' and 'the dog' in this situation, the way he is presented veers around a lot across the course of these films- and it tends not to be the same as the way, for example, Sam is presented. But also not how Optimus, also a robot, is. So what gives?
To take a step back, think about how a horse in the stereotypical 'horse girl' movie is framed, narratively speaking. They're usually presented in ways that are very unrealistic as compared to real life horses, of course, to the tune of making them 'more intelligent' (that is, more humanlike in their intelligence) than any real horse actually is. (Horse girl movies of a certain type often present horses as near psychically intuitive regarding human emotions, lmao.) But unlike in a film that anthropmorphizes animals in the sense of, say, Disney's Robin Hood, this doesn't render them functionally equivalent to human. It brings them more within the human characters' spheres, reduces the conceptual distance somewhat for the sake of storytelling and theme and wish fulfillment, but like. The horse in a horse girl movie is still a horse. Just a very idealized version of a horse that can better serve as an extension of something about the main human character.
People joke, but Bumblebee really kind of is the macho version of the horse in a horse girl movie, at least in the 2007 film. And that would be more a statement on how the movie sees its Autobot characters than anything- as action setpiece enablers first, a fantasy of owning a cool robot that is also (sort of) your friend second, and full characters a distant third- except then basically none of the other Autobots we meet later are framed like that. They other Autobot characters are like… very clearly framed as people. Shallow characters, sure, and people the narrative is only invested in as far as their ability to create inciting incidents for action scenes go. But Optimus Prime in the 2007 movie is not a character one can imagine in the role of Bumblebee in that same movie, serving as a car that fulfils the teenage fantasy of both 'owning a cool robot' and 'having something that acts like a friend but can't leave or disagree'.
This would be primarily interesting as a weird internal inconsistency and not inherently a negative if not for one thing: the muteness. There is a degree to which this process is facilitated in the audience's mind without immediate, overt cognitive dissonance the moment OP shows up and starts making speeches by the fact that Bee is rendered distinct from the other Autobots by that muteness. It's the most striking difference between Bee and the others, and it stands as the most obvious point of divergence in how the audience is expected to engage with these characters. Muteness, alongside other expressions of non-verbality, is often used in film in ways that present it as somehow implicitly dehumanizing. Mute characters are often depicted as less human than other characters on that basis, even if only on a subtextual level: from the degree to which it is sometimes used in horror film to suggest some creepy 'something's wrong, people should be talking' angle to examples where any character who cannot talk in a way deemed sufficiently coherent is assumed to be in some capacity 'childlike', and more besides. [Sidenote: that's not an inherent contradiction; media often uses child-ness as shorthand in dehumanizing ways.] Sometimes these are literal, such as in the way horror fiction will often present non-verbal autistic characters as 'uncanny' or 'creepy' and supernaturally endowed in ways intrinsically linked to how their autism (and non-verbality) renders them as Other, and sometimes they are more figurative. But the end result here is that rendering Bee mute is enough for the film to assume its audience will not chafe too hard mentally when he is treated a little less like a person that characters like Optimus Prime, and that, needless to say, is a troubling assumption!
Which brings us back to the uh. Pissing scene. Why is that scene there when it's so, so weird? Because it's not Bumblebee framed as a person inexplicably robot pissing all over a guy. It's Bumblebee the very-smart-but-not-quite-a-person car-dog pissing on a guy. And if you understand the movie is swinging towards that latter understanding of who Bee is to the audience in that scene, it makes way more sense.
(Sidenote: I have said Autobot and not Cybertronian here because the distinctions in how Autobots and Decepticons are presented, and how that plays into this whole thing of 'shifting degrees of personhood for the nonhuman characters', is a WHOLE thing, and a very interesting one to boot!)

Like…I feel like a lot of P*TA overly-anthropmorphizing discourse alienates humanity even more from our place in the ecosystem, not less? There’s a cycle of life and a cycle of death. That remains true no matter how upsetting violent death is for a sheltered suburbanite whose parents treated “funeral” like a dirty word. Predators and prey regulate each other’s populations through the rise and decline of their own numbers, balancing things out. And omnivorous species that eat both animal prey and plants have their own unique role in both keeping populations in check and in allowing them to propagate and thrive in ways we’re only just beginning to understand as we move out of the carnivore/herbivore dichotomy.
It’s like how wild swine are regarded as invasive pests in America, but in places they’re native to like European forests, they perform vital functions in tilling the soil, spreading seeds through their droppings, and scavenging fresh carrion. Humans have relationships with the creatures they hunt and the plants they harvest, too. We regulate the kudzu vines. We domesticate animals. We clear land and change the character of the ecosystems we settle in. We burn the dry brush to prevent wildfires that could take down the whole forest during drought years. We scavenge and harvest for plants and fungi like our wilder neighbors. We eat fruit and vegetables and spread seeds and fertilize the ground. We have an outsized impact on our environment because of our tool use, but that impact need not be wholly negative, especially now we begin to understand how we affect the world around us.
Factory farming and the relentless greed of Industry may have warped these relationships we have with the species we eat, but that doesn’t mean that all consumption of animals is necessarily “evil” or inhumane. I’m tired of the only two options being presented to us being remaining alienated from the lives we take and letting Industry do as it pleases to guarantee Profit or seeing ourselves as intrinsically evil and wishing we could remove ourselves from the world as penance for our sinful existence. Humanity is part of nature, too. We owe it to the creatures we must eat to survive to bring our world back into balance, before it’s too late.
You are capable of eating meat, and you are also made of meat that’s fragile and needs nourishment to survive, yourself. You’re an animal, too. All animals have a niche in the ecosystem. Don’t forget that.
