Bluesky you can just tell them no by the way, like I'm telling you "no" because you are NOT getting my fucking *government ID* and neither do I want my face scanned by your fucking phrenology bot

Can social media sites stop giving into this utter bullshit please? It's "protecting" jack shit

I love how within the first few minutes of meeting Zelda, Mineru immediately goes to infodump on constructs the second Zelda inquires about them, with Rauru knowing Exactly what his sister is like lmaooo

It's so funny and adorable, this is everything I wanted!

The way I play this game is by taking 4 billion screenshots of My Beloved

I'll need to put the game down for a few hours to actually draw her because oh god does this game give her ALL of the love she deserves!

Since I’m feeling sick and miserable I guess I’ll show off my Shame.

This piece is a wip I’ve been working on for… months, I’ve been redoing the colours over and over again but I thought I’d still share I since I do quite like where I’ve gotten it to. Even if it’s still covered in crappy doodles 😅
Drawing of my Zonai oc Kiaru and her little daughter Leda on a sky island in my AU. Kiaru is kneeling down and offering her hand to Leda, whilst Leda stands on a small rock and cautiously looks at a baby Loftwing who is absolutely delighted to see her. Around them are rocks, plants, landing pads, floating islands and a large tree in the distance that is decorated with hanging ornaments and is inhabited by loftwings

Oh well, Link is hungry! Bonus points to anyone who is able to tell me what he’s cooking!
Screenshot from Zelda TotK, Link is standing over the Zonai cooking pot atop the head of Naydra. In the pot there is a large hearty radish, a small hearty radish, a bottle of milk, a Hyrule herb and some salt Same thing as the last image but more zoomed out and at a different angle

Huh they really let you put Zonai cook pots basically anywhere huh
Screenshot from Zelda TotK where Link is standing on Naydra’s mane with a Zonai cooking pot. Link is… also a Zonai but that’s not important. My game may or may not modded Same thing as the last image but more zoomed out and Link is standing on a different part of Naydra’s mane

Uh no… we absolutely CAN afford to give every single human being alive a GOOD quality of life, capitalism itself is just inherently unsustainable as a system. This study here found out just how much energy and resources we’d actually need for it.

www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Screenshot from the article I linked. It reads: “Provisioning decent living standards (DLS) for 8.5 billion people would require only 30% of current global resource and energy use, leaving a substantial surplus for additional consumption, public luxury, scientific advancement, and other social investments. Such a future requires planning to provision public services, to deploy efficient technology, and build sovereign industrial capacity in the global South.”

I drew a slightly dishevelled, bunny nosed Mineru last night in a very sleep deprived hazy state to practise expressions and stylisation!
A sketch I did of Mineru from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It’s a headshot in a 3/4 view, Mineru has a focused and intense expression on her face and her eyes and nose have been stylised a bit. I’ve made her ears fluffy and her hair slightly dishevelled. She’s either in combat or in the heat of an academic debate lmao

So I’ve had this song stuck in my head for… some reason. Hmmm it’s a mystery as to why
Attached image is a screenshot of a YouTube video which is Bill Wurtz’s song “Mount St. Helens is about to Blow Up”. The video is paused at the part where the song lyrics on screen say: “The Dow Jones just fell down to the zero.” and the text is next to a wiggly orange graph line that has then taken a swift nose dive and slammed into the bottom of the image and flatlined. Somehow today this song feels super relevant Oh yeah this video came out like 6 years ago btw

Oh yeah here’s the relevant image in question just hhhhh fuck I called it, I actually have proof of a discord message I sent to someone like a year before the art book dropped where I headcanoned that Mineru has a secret tongue piercing because of the golden bead on the “tongue” of her gorget lmao

It is a very beautiful book but it’s entirely in Japanese! However don’t worry I gotchu :3

Ewww the compression pixelated so many of the details 😭 here’s a hopefully better quality close up
Same drawing again of Mineru from TotK but it’s now zoomed in showing her from the mid thigh up to her tall ears, and it’s a screenshot taken from procreate. This is because BlueSky pixelated the ever loving shit out of the image I uploaded wtf? This is the punishment I get for putting in the effort to export my drawing into a PNG for once lmao

Recently I’ve redone the linework for the first ever painting I did of Mineru and I’m considering re-doing most of the painting as I wasn’t entirely happy with it

Anyways I thought I’d share it to celebrate the Hyrule Warriors announcement! There will be more of her to come! 🥰
Lined drawing of Mineru from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. She’s standing in a 3/4 view with her face turned to the side and her eyes shut with a serene expression on her face. Her arm is raised with her secret stone floating in mid air between her face and hand. Her hagaromo is surrounding her head in a way that’s inspired by the northern lights, and the ends of the garment flares out dramatically and melds into the ground in cloud-like wisps making her look like a spirit

I am still afflicted by a Wretched Sickness so I will be spending my day cuddling my cat whilst backing up this monster of a library onto my PC. Surprisingly it’s only taking up a single 3rd of my iPad’s storage!

Also I truly do not know how I ended up with this many photos and videos 😅
A screenshot of my iPad photos library that I’ve cropped. The text reads: Library 75,133 Items and it’s on a background of three tumblr posts and comments I’ve screen-grabbed to add to my personal archive

I have 3 little stinks in my house so we have:

Lion getting photobombed by his bastard tabby little brother

Link then posing for the camera immediately afterwards when he got my attention

And a sleepy little void
My cat Lion, a large long haired flame point cat with blue eyes sitting on a blue fold out stool in my kitchen. His brother Link, a tabby cat, appears at the bottom of the picture, photobombing his brother My flatmate's cat Link, a tabby with brown, black and sandy coloured markings and green eyes is laying on the kitchen floor sunbathing and posing for the camera. Most of his body is sitting in the sun but his head is in the shade My other flatmate's cat Lisa, a small black cat, laying on two blankets on my bed, with her face shoved into one of them. Shes a perfect sleepy little loaf

Pls someone do it, I live too far away
This is an Ides of March meme I see often on tumblr of a Syrian hamster standing on its hind legs with half of its body hiding behind a black boot and its eyes staring directly at the camera. It’s been edited so it’s holding a knife that looks like a short sword with the word “soon” written on the image in bright bold yellow

Screenshot of my profile and bio on the BlueSky ipad app where I’ve drawn a red circle around my follower count that reads “69 followers”. Peak comedy, I know

Posting more of my backlog! Here we have more Grovyle who is fighting the Groudon at Fogbound Lake as though it were a boss from BotW/TotK. It’s not quite finished, but I still like it regardless

#pokemonmysterydungeon #grovyle #grovylepmd
Digital drawing of Grovyle from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon fighting the Groudon atop fogbound lake. It’s drawn in a way to resemble a boss fight from Zelda: Breath of the Wild, with a similar user interface layout. There’s harsh sunlight beating down on both Grovyle and Groundon, there’s clouds of dust being kicked up and they’re surrounded by towering sandstone columns. Groudon has lava dripping down the cracks in his body and has his mouth open, charging up a powerful attack

I keep forgetting to post my backlog of art on here 🥲

So anyways here’s rouge Grovyle from PMD Sky that I made like 3ish years ago now. I made this for a vis dev project that I’ve sadly had on a back burner since then, but I’m still proud of it and want to continue it still!
Digital drawing of Grovyle from PMD Explorers of Sky showing off two versions of rough clothing and accessory concepts. The drawing on the right shows Grovyle looking up and standing in the rain wearing a feather necklace, leather sheepskin arm guards, ankle wraps and a tattered blue cloak. The version on the left has Grovyle wearing the same accessories but just with his cloak removed.

My kitty Lion visited the kitty hairdresser yesterday and got a trim and a dry bath, he’s so soft and smells so good now c:

Well I’ve got a heck of an art backlog to post lmao

But anyways this is my Zonai OC Kiaru! She’s an archeologist and explorer with the power to experience the memories imbued in objects! I am yet to design her like an actual outfit but she’ll have clothes soon :3 I hope you all like her!
