Got my first shrimp goby pair last week and this is my impression of them so far.

#Art #Fish #Fishblr #Fish art #My art #The fish is fine btw just a coward #Though I do think he might have gotten a small concussion from his two escape attempts #Jumped out of the tank literally at one in the morning and then an hour later at two in the morning it was a miracle I was awake during this #I have since covered the food holes in the lid with heavy objects #It gave me a heart attack on day two cuz I thought it was dead #I even poked it with a stick and it didn’t react at all #Luckily I left it in there and it was up and going about six hours later and has since been behaving normally #It is eating tho which is a good sign #Tested my paremetres and there’s nothing wrong with the water so ╮(╯_╰)╭ #Shrimp is delightful to watch #She explores the tank a lot and is super cute #Idk what the sex of the fish is but I’m pretty confident that the shrimp is a girl #Has snapped once and I was unprepared for how loud they actually are in person #The fish cuddles the shrimp with its tail and they’re super cute #They gave me a stress for a few days but everything’s stable now so #10/10 aquarium pets #Aquarium stuff

Having thoughts about sentience, inorganics, the inherent value of life, and the human factor because the way Transformers talks about it genuinely fucks me up sometimes

#transformers #optimus prime #my designs #first time I draw OP as a robot and I don’t even draw his face lmao #anyways #the way Megatron and by extension the Decepticons don’t even consider humans worth their time #because they’re at war and everything is a resource #and where’s the merit in a small fleshy creature that barely lives a century #whereas Optimus and by extension the Autobots #immediately recognize the value in human life #because that’s literally his whole thing is that all life is equal #till all are one #so human lives are worth as much as Cybertronian ones #the sentience of humans wasn’t even a factor in his decision to respect them #and the way various characters come to this conclusion all across canon?? #idk I’m having Thoughts tonight

the difference in their hands…

#the way charles is looking at carlos??? #carlos is literally taking his breath away #he is smitten #carlos’ big hands #charles’ small hands #carlos’ hands being darker and full of hair #charles’ hands being lighter and bare #this is something so serious. #they’re insane #theyre crazy #they are so boyfriend coded #charlos #charles leclerc #carlos sainz #carlos sainz jr #carlos sainz 55 #c2 #ferrari #ferrari boys #ferrari formula one #they can not be normal for two seconds

I need to draw Booigi real soon, the lack of them is making me itchy

#kelperambles #uhhh pic is unrelated but I thought the paper luigi was cute 💖 #anyways I just wanted to ramble about how much I love booigi LMAO #but like I need the very specific type of booigi that has been rotting in my brain in order to be satisfied #OKAY OKAY. picture this: Names are such an important thing to Luigi. Many people don’t tend to remember the bare minimum about him #so he really appreciates the few people who take enough time to remember his actual name or small things about him #then when King Boo pulls up he’s literally yelling Luigi’s name and cursing him out #sure while Luigi is still scared of him he can’t help but feel flattered that King Boo subconsciously respects him enough to call him Luigi #not green mario. not the man in green. just him…truly him. #and while Luigi might not want an designated enemy (like what Mario and bowser have) #the fact that king boo believes that Luigi is significant enough to be his enemy is something Luigi cannot ignore #King Boo acknowledges Luigi for his strengths in his weird theater kid way #but I can really see them growing closer together once Luigi discovers that King Boos plays everything up just to be DRAMATIC ✨✨ #king boo WANTS luigi to react. and if he doesn’t get that he more or less just lets go of the act #like what’s the point of setting everything up if Luigi’s not even going to match his high energy? #honestly they just need to both RELAX for a second and they would really hit it off #it’s actually embarrassing. they’re so embarrassing.

As a pet sitter I find it so wild how every cat owner I’ve sat for is like “hi this is Winston III. Here’s his bladder supplements and his 45 treats and his special food. He has 49 cat trees and his own bathroom, and gets fed four times a day, and has more toys and enrichment than I do. It’s his house actually, I just live here.”

Meanwhile most dog owners (save for two in the year and a half I’ve been sitting) are like “here’s Spot. He eats grain-based Purina because it’s the cheapest on the shelf. he’s so overweight and he has heart issues and, unrelated actually, you can’t take him for a walk because he pulls on a lead and we never did any socialization training haha. He also barks for 12 hours a day. What can you do 🤷‍♀️. He doesn’t listen and knows 0 commands. Oh yeah, and that’s The Cat. We just free feed them and scoop the litterbox once a week. You don’t need to worry about them”

#literally why are so many dog owners like this #small work rant tbh #they’re so neglectful and like??? cause so many preventable issues in their dogs? #and they think it’s the dog’s fault

I’m TIRED of being a service to others. I’m TIRED of people thinking they’re helping me by asking me to do XYZ.

I just want to go OUTSIDE and touch SALAMANDERS and look at FROGS

#uuuuuuuugh #im not regularly employed so people in this small town think they’re helping me by asking me to house sit for 8 weeks for free (or maybe $10 #or transferring things on their tablet because I’m like the only one around whose not 60+ #I literally only had plans today to go look at salamanders it’s ALL I WANT TO DO

courthouse elevators are truly cursed places I’m not surprised gregory edgeworth was killed in one

#ace attorney #it’s like the most uncomfortable elevator ride you will ever experience #like it’s mandatory to shut the hell up because everyone is listening to what you’re saying #if you talk about the case you risk someone involved overhearing you which could be highly detrimental #if you make small talk you risk looking like you’re trivialising the case #your only option is to shut the hell up #and then they’re really packed because everyone is going to the same place #and they’re really slow #like they’re designed to maximise the time you feel uncomfortable #eyeing everyone like they’re involved in the case #and it feels like everyone is judging you too #you’re the there with your client who doesn’t know any of these things and continues blabbing to you #so it so awkward when you literally have to tell them to shut up in front of everyone too #cursed experience #can’t even tell you how many times we were warned about court elevators at law school

#saw a picture of myself from when i was really struggling with my body image when i was younger and started sobbing #bc i was literally a tiny fucking baby it was like middle school and i look so small #but we were at the pool and i was swimming in shorts and a tank top bc i was so scared of my body existing #and looking at it now is like overwhelming bc what the fuck that’s a picture of a baby #and the fact that i know what’s going on in that kids head and how fucking wild and Wrong the feelings they’re having are #i can’t recall ever seeing a picture of myself from that time bc it was so bad i would never let anyone take them of me #bc i was terrified of having to see myself or ppl being able to look at me like that forever #and actually seeing one and seeing what i truly looked like vs the image i had in my head of how i thought i looked #is fucking wild #and so fucking sad #sorry i’m having a lot of emotions abt this actually didn’t expect that to happen but #here we are ig #personal

just quit my fuckass job

#last day’s Saturday <3 #cause I am NAWT putting up with the bullshit I’ve undergone just this week any longer #can’t have our phones in our pockets anymore eventhough no one is ever on them bc we literally don’t have time #new owner’s making us park across the street at a different store’s parking lot bc ours is small and she wants to reserve the parking #for customers like yeah okay do that at the expense of your employees sure why not #they’re making us do double the work for lower pay #everyone is thinking of quitting they’re just trying to secure jobs before they do #but I genuinely just couldn’t handle it I was genuinely gonna snap at some point so I’d rather just quit than get fired #but now I have to find another job BOOOOO #but I was going to have to leave anyways to find someway to do my shadowing for grad school so this gave me a good opportunity

have a fluffy lad

#grim draws #gabimaru #jigokuraku #hell’s paradise #this is a redraw of a manga panel #he’s so cutie I’ll probs draw him more #I was looking him up on wiki for a color ref and I found out that his birth name is Tsuki??? #that’s literally my cat’s name and she was sleeping on my lap all while I drew this #and that’s super funny to me #also shout out to sun my bestie who I was on call with while drawing this and we only talked like half of the 2 hours #why is it that when I post images they’re always SO PIXELATED #I DONT EVEN DRAW THAT SMALL ANYMORE ignore that this takes up like. about a third of the canvas like that’s a decent size considering I had #two more sketches on this canvas #I’m so proud of that hand it’s so shaped. sometimes I love myself #I was gonna say something else. OH YEAH gabimaru is so sweet and I love his design #fluffy hair + short + eye bags he’s literally my favorite type of character #rooting for him to make it back to his wife !!!! they are so cute together #I have a joke to make .but I’m saving it for another post #okay bue

Hate hate hate hate fucking HATE contacting my reps basically saying shit like “I support Palestine, I want you to retract support from Israel, I support Palestine. I want you to stop what israel is doing in Gaza” over and over and them responding like “yes it’s so terrible we need a ceasefire but hamas is refusing to act civilized like our poor precious bby Israel” I hate America I hate America I hate it here hate hate hate hate hate

#I wish there was more I can do #I’m contacting reps and boycotting (not that I supported most companies that are being boycotted but have stopped the couple that I did) #and when I get paid Friday I’m planning on donating more #I’m trying to convince my annoying apathetic roommate that it’s not ‘pointless’ to do these things #as well as other ppl in my life #but when even doing these small things gets responses like this it’s so enraging #like I’m explicitly telling you I do not support what Israel is doing and they’re like ‘yes we know hamas bad’ #FUCK YOU THATS NOT WHAT I SAID AND YOU DAMN WELL KNOW IT #UGH #I hate this stupid fucking country and they’re stupid fucking war crimes #and I wish there was more I could do #and I know this is useless saying all this and I don’t mean this in like a pity party way like ‘oohhh I’m not making a difference #and I feel bad :(‘ way #because what I feel regarding this is literally inconsequential #and I just need to continue doing what I can and uplifting Palestinian voices about everything #there’s just something so deeply insidious and disgusting about this country trying rephrase and put words in the mouths of ppl voicing that #they do NOT support this and want it to stop #which I know. I know is what the USA does. I know that’s what propoganda is #I’m just *muffled screaming* #anyways #fuck this country #kaz rambles

Look at me. LOOK at me. Old growth forests are important. Their loss is violence against the land.

BUT that isn’t a reason to point at younger, perfectly healthy closed canopy forests and claim they’re ecologically insignificant or bad. Their sparse understory is a function of closed canopy forests. Even old growth forests will have sparse understories if the canopy is closed. That’s how photosynthetic strata works.

The west coast has vastly different forests and history than the east. The rare volcanic eruption that made the giant stands of Douglas fir in the west possible would be literally impossible here. Our species are adapted for stand replacing fires set by indigenous peoples to drive deer and rejuvenate oak. Oak as a genus is dying here. We can’t set fires. We can’t harvest patches large enough to simulate a fire. Our deer are overpopulated and browse down every sprout that dares to reach for sunlight.

Making a sweeping ban on clear-cut and similarly ‘scary’ harvests would kill them for good. The restrictions on fire have nearly done that to species like Jack and pitch pine that rely heavily on fire to establish. They’ve been relegated to pine barrens and the rare sandy forest clearing. Our fire Cherry, thankfully, can last decades in the soil seedbank. You can only see them the first few decades after a large, complete harvest and then they die.

What’s good for one forest kills another. Not all trees are made ecologically equal - and that’s a very good thing. All trees and forests have their ecological value. Management of one forest is never applicable to other forests; they all have their own unique histories and communities that should be imitated when possible and left alone when not.

#ra speaks #personal #forest #forestry #I wanna agree w old growth forest folks so bad but then they turn around and say shit like ‘there is NEVER a good reason to clearcut’ #babes the kirt warbler would like to argue. bitches need 10-15 ft Jack pine to nest in. they’re picky. #you ain’t getting 10-15 ft Jack pine without a large. stand replacing. disturbance. #*shaking Californians by the shoulders* THERE IS MORE FOREST TO THE WORLD THAN DOUGLAS FIR. WHY ARENT YOU PROTECTING THE CLIFFSIDE CEDARS? #we have cedars on this coast that are OLD GROWTH. nobody but weird tree ppl seem to care bc THEYRE UGLY AF AND SMALL. #that doesn’t mean they’re ‘not old growth’ #gosh do NOT even get me started on the semantics of old growth #and like. yeah we can’t replace old growth in the west BUT NOT BC PLANTATIONS HAVE A HARVEST SCHEDULE. #it’s because the original old growth only exists bc a VOLCANIC ERUPTION wiped out most everything else and laid a nice bed of ash #for the seedlings to establish in. id rather a shitty plantation keep a 50-60 ur harvest schedule on a single piece of land #than have them slowly chip away at literally irreplaceable trees in the name of #‘sustainable forestry’ babe there is no sustaining the western old growth. either a volcano decides to give it a fresh start or not #I hate hate hate the eternal-ness ppl have attached to forests they are not here for you they aren’t even here for species that rely on them #they’re here bc a long time ago nothing else was. they’re here bc the soil was just right. they’re here bc the people before respected that #but also understood their power to shape the landscape. and in doing so they created diversity rarely seen this far north. #sorry. it’s been a day. needed a good rant.
