Would you mind showing a picture of the (clean) soap dish at some point? Hard to picture in my head what it looked like to have a hidden place for bugs is all!
Sure! Here ya go.
Tumblr media
[ID: A dish sponge/soap caddy consisting of a plastic tray, a perforated metal lid on the tray, and a wire rack emerging from the left half of the metal lid. Sitting in the wire rack is the handle of a scrubby sponge, and sitting next to it in the "soap dish" indentation is a bottle of Meyer's hand soap.]
The flat perforated "lid" bit snaps onto the part below it, which looks metallic in this photo but is actually plastic. Usually very little water or soap gets into the tray, but occasionally soapy water from the sponge drips down into it, and sometimes when I'm doing dishes too enthusiastically it'll get splashed with dish water.
It's truly the best sponge/soap dish I've ever owned, it does exactly what I wanted it to do, I just...definitely need to remember to rinse it out more often. With boiling water and Barkeeper's Friend.
(For why it needs more regular cleaning, new readers can click the link here, but please be warned it's super gross and about cleaning and bugs.)

seeing a prolific tumblr user who's an anti post about how "disgusting" animals don't deserve to be exterminated just because they're gross or inconvenient to humans when they justified the invader zim artist dying because they drew bad things and it just..... broke me. antis have more empathy for insects than disabled queer csa survivors. unspeakably evil.

Under appreciated kids shows (specifically for goth/alternative/creepycore kiddos) with links:
Growing Up Creepie:
All about a cute alt girl who was raised by bugs. Only 26 episodes, but it's cute and fun and each episode features a little critter moment where you learn a few thi gs about a real insect featured in the episode! (TW: Insects..lots of insects. And spiders!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ruby Gloom:
Super cute show about a girl (meant to be a raggedy doll, though she doesn't trigger our doll-phobia) and her monster friends; including a skeleton boy, a cyclops girl, a banshee and an adorable bat. 40 episodes and I can't really think of any triggers (please correct me if I'm wrong).

(Will add more to this as I think of more shows..feel free to add your own!)

Here’s a Headcanon of mine! Waddle dees communicate telepathically like a hive mind and only dedede can understand them ahahdhdhdhsghd
You said hive mind???
I… may or may not take inspiration from this for Queen Bee-dede and her Waddle Bees-
Okay, jokes aside, I like the way you think. Dedede being the only one to understand ‘em is a great touch.

Giant whump, from the perspective of humans being like small animals or insects
Giant who carries their pet human in a little purse like a human would a toy poodle
Giant who tries to help an injured human picks them up off the ground, accidentally squeezing their abdomen a little too tightly between their thumb and forefinger I’ve accidentally killed ants like this and felt really bad about it
Giant finds that a human has made a home in the corner of their apartment. Giant puts them outside to be humane, instead of killing them like their roommate wanted to do, only to realize it is too cold to put them outside when Whumpee instantly curls up into a little ball in the winter air. Giant decides to Keep Whumpee in a little jar, cursing themselves and hoping they’ll recuperate I also accidentally did this with a spider at work because I’m dumb and sometimes forget what season it is, apparently
Human bites being toxic to giants
Certain giants being allergic to human bites, in the way that some people are allergic to bees
Giant finding human who has been hit by a giant car nursing them back to health with cat food in a small animal cage and if you want emotional whump for the giant, have them come back to find the human stiff with gnats in its eyes…
Humans infesting a giant’s house like rats or cockroaches and making the place so dirty it becomes uninhabitable (possibly giving the giant a respiratory infection)
Or, Giant training Human to do tricks like a pet rat
Giants mercy-killing humans that are injured because they’re too small to effectively treat

OC-tober 3: Old OC

She is a humanoid creature with pale orange bug-like antennae, pale brown skin, short, messy brown hair, and two sets of visible fangs.

She is sitting in a squatting position with arms crossed, smiling and looking ahead. The background is comprised of abstract strokes of blue, orange, and red. End ID]
