Hey, if you're a minor and you're following my blog, I just need you to be aware:

You have been on this earth for fewer years than my cat has.

She turns 20 this week, everyone please say happy birthday 🥳💖

Update! She tolerated wearing a hat for the occasion ✨

Good news, everyone!! 🎉

Someone get this cat a beer.

i'm conducting an experiment. everyone who's from an english speaking country state your country, regional area and what you call the following images. i need to see something

United States of America, Georgia (lived in Washington state for 10 years.) French Fries/fries, potato chips/chips, biscuit, Cookies, Soda/cola/Fizzy/or exact item, Candy and chocolate, Cig/Cigarettes, Watch cap/beanie, Cotten Candy

There's this weird tendency among fandom types where they'll take a character, and insist that they are fans of them, before changing their design, age, pronouns, backstory, blood type, species, hometown, favorite color, zodiac sign, medical history, and every other facet of their being.

They will then violently insist that this version is superior to the canon one and act like they "fixed" them and it's like. Buddy that's not the same character anymore. That's just your own oc commiting identity fraud. Like. I get the desire to experiment with different interpretations of a story. But first of all it's okay to just make an original character if that's what you really want to do. And second of all, are you even really a fan of the character you "fixed" if they're a completely different person afterwards?

Like. Idk dude for somebody who claims to be a fan you sure don't seem to like them as they are :/

Gonna remember "buddy that's not the character that's your OC committing identity fraud."

James Gurney, "The Tartarus Incident," 1982.

Do you have patterns when it comes to OCs? For example, always making them tall or dark eyed

fluffy hair and piercings… it’s a struggle not to give them those

All my girl ocs have short hair...

A lot of my OC designs have warm colors. I do have cool-colored OCs, but they're rarer than the others.

Reblog if it's OK for other artists to draw your OCs

Sometimes I get too timid to send asks to ask. I want to see how many people are ok with artists drawing their OCs!

Putting your dromaeosaur in a Snood is a great way to keep them warm in winter AND keep calm during firework displays or thunderstorms!!***
