#stinger is cool

[milkweedman]

bugs are so cool because most wild animals arent really chill with a human staring at them close up and moving around/doing things, but a lot of bugs will just watch you back. or wiggle around. we love to see it

#bees are a favorite of mine to hang out with #theres tons of mason bees and i think wasps ? they have very long stingers but i dont actually know that much about the different kinds #but theyre all so incredibly chill. any time im picking something in the garden i usually have about ten bees flying around my ankles #the wasps on the other hand hang out by the bird bath #have never seen a bird in it but i fill it up every day because there's almost always a handful of wasps #floating in it and drinking or cooling off or whatever it is theyre doing #makes it a little hard to fill it up tbh because im not going to spray them with water so sometimes i have to wait a few minutes #but recently ! when i stand over there with the hose if there are wasps that were about to go in the water they hover nearby instead #maybe they have realized im about to fill it up ? idk. theyre very chill and friendly though #im glad my venus fly trap is way too small to eat them

Chevrolet Corvair Yenko Stinger, 1966. An edition of 100 cars built by Chev dealer and tuner Don Yenko who applied to the SCCA to approve the Chevrolet Corvair Corsa for competition. The Yenko Stingers were Central Office Production Order (COPO) cars, optioned with four-speed manual transmissions, Positraction axles, special suspensions and steering equipment. At Yenko Chevrolet rear seats were removed and the C-pillars strengthened. The factory decklid was replaced by a fibreglass version with a spoiler and adjustable air scoops. All Yenko Stingers were finished in Ermine White and most were painted with blue stripes and accents. There were four of different performance tunes: Stage I produced 160hp, Stage II was good for 190hp, Stage III made 220, and the purely competition Stage IV made 240hp from the 2.7 litre flat-6.

what is your favorite buggie

going to interpret this as bug and not. shopping cart or off road vehicle. and i like mantises! freaky little guys

#not edits #asks #honorable mention to bees (if they didn't have stingers i would hold one but i am terrified of getting stung lmfao) #and some butterflies and dragonflies which are stunning and gorgeous and so cool

Again not a dungeon meshi reader/watcher but every time I hear about that laois guy I get reminded of how my system had/has a hyperfixation on dragons so intense that we got that big fancy dragonology book and we treated it like the damn dragon Bible for like years

Now, obviously, we understand that there's different interpretations on mythical creatures, and no one interpretation on a dragon is necessarily gospel, but that multiple interpretations on the classic tale of beasts of scale and fire are completely valid and to be expected!

however if you call an Eastern dragon a coatl I'm going to come to your house and slaughter your family

#THEY'RE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT #yes they have similarities but coatls have WINGS typically and dont usually have other limbs. they're more serpentine birds #meanwhile Eastern dragons (Chinese depictions for example) don't typically have wings and are more lizard-like #like Mushu !!!!!!!! Mushu is an Eastern dragon #and then there's drakes and wyrms. which are entirely different bc they can't really fly #drakes are more like draconic horses or dogs. no wings but four limbs and a tail with a reptilian appearance #wyrms are more serpentine with no limbs and no wings. though i think some interpretations of wyrms give them like.. two forelimbs #then there's wyverns. wyverns have two legs and two wings instead of the typical eight limbs (four limbs two wings) #(i also perosnally hold true to the interpretation of wyverns with poisonous stingers for tails but that's just me cause i think its cool) #..... how much of this is just me talking abiut dragons #explodes. #oh yeah and obv there's the HTTYD interpretations which i adore! they're interesting #the designs are so fascinating and from what ive seen seem to have some science behind them #and arent just the typical western style of dragons. which nothing wrong with the western style it's a classic ofc #but it's still fun to see some variation!! #and ofc there's WOF #which holds true to Western dragons in simple anatomy but has its own variations and of course its own lore #then there's. fuck i forget the name but it's a fantasy story based in China i believe #i loved it so much it was so cool #anyways it had a dragon character named Seryu. I love Seryu. he my favorite #anyways i liked the interpretation of dragons there bc iirc it held true to ummmmm some Chinese mythology involving dragons #cause Eastern mythology of drahons is . so much diffetent than Western #Western dragons are commonly very monstrous creatures‚ usually very animalistic #they tend to embody the Christian concept of greed/gluttony hence why they're so typically monstrous/villainous #which i find interesting but i wont get into that #meanwhile. i wanna say Eastern dragon legends more revolve around the idea of a dragon as more of a godly/fae-type creature? #that's probably a poor comparison but that's how i interpreted it. agian im probahly wronf about all of this #im some weirdo rambling about dragons on the internet. dont trust me explicitly #i need to get more dragon mythology books #HELP I REACHED THE TAG LIMIT I DIDNT THINK THAT WAS POSSIBLE GOOD LORD OKAY I'LL SHUT UP NOW

Gonna slap the people who named bugs

#found a bug in my room- thought it was a sandbaby- turns out I don’t remember what a sandbaby looks like #so I do a bit of research and the first thing that I see that looks right is wind scorpion #now I need everyone here to understand that I love bugs deeply they are neat they are cool they are friends #but I have a deep fear of scorpions #zbznnsnsbsns they are extremely cool just not when they’re by me #so my first thought is shit I have to abandon my room and everything in it now it all belongs to the scorpion #but it’s late and I’m already in bed and I’m doing more research cause d u h #and turns out it’s not really a scorpion at all???? I mean like. same family tree #but it’s not your traditional scorpion- it doesn’t have a stinger and it’s non venomous #worst thing about it is it’s a little speedy a bit aggressive and can/will bite #but the REAL worst thing is it likes to cozy up in blankets and clothes #and it’s in my bedroom where I so happen to keep my blankets and clothes dhdhdhhdjdd #anywho I’ll try to catch it and put it outside tomorrow after work if I can find it again #whole point of this is for just a second I was like oh fuck a scorpion and was not okay about that djdjdjdjd #tw bugs #it’s also called a sun spider #cause why have one name when you can have two??? #dhdhdjjsjsjs anyways uh everything is fine and I’m going to bed #I will see to cleaning my room and maybe capturing our little friend tomorrow

JFT REALLY REALLY GOOD. I won't be blogging about it until like 2 because I'm en route to Lubbock but man I think listening to it as the sun rose over the empty highway in front of me was. hands down the best way to experience it for the first time. jenny <333

#txt #jenny from thebes #the mountain goats #tmg #orig #ON YOUR CUSTOM KAWASAKI WITH THE STINGER ON THE BACK....... #also i need to share. an experience. #i was listening to great pirates for the first time and as the instrumental swells after the chorus a motorcyclist passes me on the road. #im not superstitious but god that was a really cool thing to happen. thank you stranger on a motorcycle youre like an angel to me.

character design tip! if you’re gonna base a character around mushrooms dont choose the one type of mushroom that you can’t look at references for without going GHHHHHHHUHGHH

#trousled rambles #I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE OK BECAUSE I DONT REALLY HAVE A FEAR OF MUSHROOMS AND THE ONLY BUGS I FEAR ARE THE ONES WITH STINGERS #WHY CAN I NOT RESEARCH OPHIOCORDYCEPS WITHOUT HATING EVERY SECOND OF IT #BLEGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #YUCKY GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #AND its too late to change the mushroom type now because im COMMITTED to the theming like the character's got insect bits too. god dammit #i shoulda just gone cliche and used amanita muscaria but NOOOOOOO i had to be COOL with the ZOMBIE FUNGUS

Superboy has a good Rogues Gallery actually people just keep not using them in Superboy Stories.

#You've all heard of King Shark. Guess who's comic he's from. #superboy #Scavenger is also fun. #Amanda Spence is pretty cool. #kon el #dc comics #dccomics #comics #Technician could work. #Neon is sort of fun. #Sidearm has some charm. #Snare has some potential. #Stinger is a good Mercenary villain. #There's just a lot of potential for a bunch of these characters if someone wanted to use them. #Kon El #I even think Knockout can be used as a villain but you have to engage with her actions without the authorial intent. #Like Knockout is an abuser who manipulated Kon is how you have to use her.

in a nutshell the other mutations included making him stronger faster more durable and have better healing, as well as improve his senses (including his spider sense) as well as allow him to feel vibrations on both his skin and his webs and use any part of body to be sticky compared to just his hands and feet and make organic webs and release stingers from his wrists when under stress that release paralyzing venom and also have night vision and i think maybe some other stuff i forgot

WHAT THE FUCK THATS AWESOME??? that’s the best way to do extra mutations also I think I do remember when Peter got extra sticky powers bc he used it to keep his mask on his face so he couldn’t be forcibly demasked

#spider-man #the stingers are probably the most inconvenient for him bc he’s always stressed #and now he has an even HIGHER likelihood of killing someone when he’s on a rampage #the paralyzing venom and stinger is so cool #yeah no that is the best progression of mutation and the least invasive #since man spider and the six arms etc are all things that very fundementally change Peter’s look and behavior

Watching Titan AE for the first time: “Well that was kind of a silly film, but it was really cool that the Drej were an alien race made of pure energy.”

Watching Titan AE for the second time: “Oh, the Drej order all fighters to be recalled to the ship before they fire their main weapon, that’s really cool.”

Watching Titan AE for the third time: “Oh, hey, they also recalled all their fighters at the start of the movie to power their weapon before they blow up Earth. That’s consistent!”

Watching Titan AE for the ninth time: “The Drej Citadel is a lot bigger at the start of the movie when it blows up Earth than it is at the end of the movie when they’re hunting the Titan because they sacrificed a lot of their energy and people blowing up Earth and hunting down humanity.” 

#OKAY #that also explains why they used the Stingers to take out the ice shield around Titan #because cracking that and allowing an access point for the beam would take a lot less energy #''what you can blow up a planet but you can't blow up a really big ship???'' #they COULD blow up a planet...they probably didn't have that power before #I read someone's comment about that and YO #THAT'S SO COOL #Titan AE #Titan A E #drej

googling bee anatomy shit for monstery yarrow purposes and sitting here like. yeah this ain't gonna work i gotta make this up on my own or just straight up not go with that idea

#there's only so much that arthropods and mammals have in common #and bees have three different anatomical structures is they're queens workers or drones too #i can get away with fucked up limbs and like. external stuff p easy #then there's like. bee mouth anatomy that's like okay. they have a fucked up mouth how do i transpose this to a human face structure #which requires equal parts thinking bullshitting and 'eh this looks cool' #went down a rabbit hole last night like does it make sense to give him a stinger. it does Not #there is no elegant way to do that. also it's not practical story-wise for him to have like. a venomous weapon on his body at all times #esp when he was kidnapped and experimented on without his permission. and definitely fighty about it #if this guy slugs his partner immediately after being rescued bc his first instinct is to Fight i don't think givin him venom is a good ide #worth noting that the human experimentation in honeybee is a pick and choose deal on behalf of the scientists doing it as opposed- #-to just like 'shit dude i'm mixing you with an animal we'll see what happens' #stingers killing the organism upon exit is also negligible but not something i wanna think abt either #not to mention placement. but that one's kinda funny to think abt like. you can have sex but Watch Out #god this sounds insane IT MAKES SENSE IN MY HEAD I PROMMY #rambles #yarrow

my bro and I were doing some late night research and detective work in locating Deem Bristow roles in all other media outside of Sonic because it's always fun lol. some of them are genuinely so hard to find and some might just be impossible from what we've tried digging into so far but we have made some great finds. we hope to compile all we do find for a cool video compilation appreciating them at some point

#we WILL find more of the live action stuff #because it's super cool and interesting to actually see him on screen and at all outside that one photo everything uses #also not live action but once I compiled all the Blue Stinger stuff I found and put it all on Google Drive but I can't remember the acc #gotta find that too because it's gold #some of the live action stuff may require buying the actual episodes/movies. considering it tbh XD #deem bristow #my post
