One thing that stuck with me for Artoirel is this off-handed comment he made when you two fly a chocobo to Falcon's Nest. He seems to be someone who prioritizes his duties no matter what, but perhaps he enjoys the freedom like this once in a while.... lots to ponder about

I forgot to share this before last weekend, but this was the bag I brought with me to Dokomi :> Lil Orion's first time traveling to see the world Gonna have to rearrange my pins to make space for the new ones though, augh

Also (whipping out my wallet with bird pictures here) some other favorites that I regularly see are the Common Chaffinch, Common Chiffchaff and Eurasian Wren! The bohemian waxwing is at the top of my list of birds I still want to see, it's such a beautiful specimen augh

It changes day-by-day, but currently very fond of the little ringed plover

I will never stop thinking about this one created by Michael Whelan in 1985

An elephant-like quadruped character fearfully hides behind a pile of wooden rubble while holding a gun in one trunk, and holding a mirror in the other trunk to peek around the corner at an armed man

Bakuzen 🐍@bakuzen· Apr 6

IT DOES, it makes me want to do this

Two photos of a cat, in the first one the cat is licking a printed picture of food, and in the second photo the cat looks disappointed with its ears pulled back in annoyance

Bakuzen 🐍@bakuzen· Apr 6

A close second is this beautiful Art Fight piece that @icicleteeth.bsky.social made of Orion, and it made me tear up a little bit bc I often struggle to eat food and he looks so happy eating his La Noscean treats!! I keep all the art people make of him in a folder though, it's all precious augh

A few colorful paintings of gorgeous La Noscean themed food and two drawings of Orion enjoying his little foods and drinks. Drawn by @/icicleteeth.bsky.social

During an AP on the Azim Steppe, I parked Orion in a field of sheep with /pdead and somebody drew him lying in the grass surrounded by sheep, and I still think about it on a regular basis Art was by @/ShootyGhoulFace1 but I can't find their account anymore!

A traditional drawing with paper and black/gold pencils of my FFXIV wol Orion. It's a top-down view of him lying on the ground, and he's surrounded by sheep and they're all happy and peaceful

{ The sunset followed when he left -- I guess he needs a light where he's goin' } #DaheiShuai ∙ #FFXIVoc

A digital painting of my FFXIV oc Dahei Shuai, a male hyur with short black hair and a black outfit. he's facing away from the viewer, set against a vibrant yellow background. He's framed by a few white painterly plants, and his lower body is only a few rough brush strokes

I've been playing through MSQ on an alt again and I can't stop rotating him in my mind like a rotisserie chicken

Gpose shots of a male hyur with short black hair, brown eyes and a horizontal scar over his nose. He's also wearing the slay kpop boyband crop top with metal chains and sparkly gems and looking very beautiful (to me)

I wanted to draw the Sponge Silkie loafing on Gwa's head but only realized halfway through that I've never drawn anything like it fdshjfsd #LibraryDaysAP

Digital pencil sketch drawn at the Library Days art party in FFXIV. Gwagwa Gwa taking a big gulp while a Sponge Silkie is perched on her head and threatens to fall off. Both are very pink

Oh wow, yeah that was a TERRIBLE idea. I'm glad they backtracked, but what were they even thinking in the first place 🫠

Screenshot of a tumblr post saying comparing the official Tumblr update post on mobile (where the change isn't implemented) and on web (where the change is implemented). The mobile post has 55k likes and 100k reblogs. The web post has 2.6k likes and 3.7k reblogs.

Text: in case you want to know how bad the new tumblr update is. look at the notes. these are from the same post. screenshotted at the same time. the first one is a screenshot from tumblr app where the new update hasn’t been implemented yet. the second one is a screenshot from web browser where the new update has already been implemented.

Cleaning up my video folder and finding a 3-minute video of me just petting Lvl 1 . Peak gaming

Whenever I hear an artist mention how much they're struggling to draw horns in perspective: PLEASE bookmark sketchfab it'll save your life many times over

Bakuzen 🐍@bakuzen· Mar 11

You know what, considering the challenge I gave them I'm impressed

screenshot of the website youraibores.me with my chat message at the top saying 'Draw Orion' and the responding "AI" (an actual person) drew a stick figure holding a belt with the words 'Look at my belt'

If you'd like to feel even even sadder!!

By 1981, only a single nesting pair of Kauaʻi ʻōʻō’s were known to exist. Jennifer Kahn has written, “Our role as stewards of the Earth is becoming more and more like that of doctors in a global intensive-care unit, trapped in a cycle of heroic, end-of-life measures.” Ornithologists tried desperately to protect this pair, but the female was never seen again after a devastating hurricane struck the island in 1982. The male lived for several years after that. In 1986, an ornithologist named Jim Jacobi was with a group when they heard the last surviving Kauaʻi ʻōʻō begin to sing. Jacobi later described the encounter to Ben Shattuck in The Rumpus:

“I took out my tape recorder, clicked it on,” he said. “The bird sang again, then flitted away. I quickly rewound the tape and then I played it again to see what I got, and I turned up the volume so John and Pete could hear it. And then, bam! All of a sudden, the bird came right back. I thought, this is great, it came back! And then it hit me: The reason it came back is it heard another bird. And it hadn’t heard another bird in, you know, how long. And it turns out this was probably the last one there was.”

Orion's nose isn't exactly big-big but it's still big and cutieful To me #wolanswer

Orion looking concerned and disapprovingly at something off-camera, the sunlight falling across his face in a way that highlights the shape of his noise, with a broad bridge and round tip
