HELLO. I am in fact, alive, just graduated!
Now that I am free for a bit, my Next Big Project is to harness my autism and make the entirety (at least, as much as I can) of the warriors family tree genetically accurate!!
I will be using @bonefall’s family trees as a base, since, yknow, they fixed the inbreeding and a bunch more
Time to have some fun :)
After about 1-2 hours of set up and an additional 3 hours of work, I’m 1/4–1/3 of the way done

May's drawing is for the Javan rhino.
The Javan rhino has been listed as critically endangered on IUCN Red list since 2019, and only have approximately 50 individuals left now. They are estimated to live around forty years, and are mostly solitary creatures — only really coming together to mate, or for the mother to raise her calf. They once lived all over Southeast Asia, but the remaining individuals are currently in Ujung Kulon National Park located in Indonesia. A large part of the Javan rhino population were killed off by trophy hunters, and also hunted as agricultural pests. Many were also killed for their horns in order to use them in Traditional Asian Medicine. Many rhinos are still hunted for their horns, although now more for a symbol of status and wealth rather then medicine. Habitat loss, poaching, and potential inbreeding due to their low numbers still pose a large threat to the remaining Javan rhinos. They are also in danger from potential natural disasters. Anak Krakatau, a volcanic island not to far from the park, could wipe out a large portion of life the protected park.
You can donate to the International Rhino Foundation at https://rhinos.org/donate/ to help save the Javan rhino.

even before i lived in a place with a massive population of feral cats decimating the wildlife i had read the studies and knew the data said that TNR did not work and we need to be trapping and euthanizing feral cats but now that i’ve lived in a place where there are an enormous number of feral cats it’s like, inconceivable to me that anyone supports TNR, not just for the health of the world but for the sake of the fucking cats
nobody will even acknowledge it not even in most conservation circles. We have a solution to a massive, massive problem that is more humane, cheaper, easier, takes less time, prevents animal suffering, and saves valuable members of our disappearing ecosystem. And nobody is even willing to theoretically acknowledge that it exists outside of a few very small circles.
it works. It works. It is better for the cats. It’s better for the cats. Living in a place where you cannot drive 10 minutes without seeing a new roadkill cat almost every single day really makes you think about how much suffering could have been prevented if we just dealt with the problem we have created. It’s not a pleasant way to go, being hit by a car. Or being ripped apart by a predator, or eating a poison, or starving to death, of dying of an infection, or an illness, or any of the hundred thousand ways an animal in the wild passes without human intervention. Euthanasia is simply falling asleep. It is fucking wild to me that saying you think we should take responsibility for our mistakes and ensure that cats fall asleep peacefully instead of capturing them and then hurling them back out into the world SPECIFICALLY in order to allow them to die in agony makes people treat you like a fucking serial killer.
And if you don’t care about cats dying in agony do you care about the world around you? There’s a species of bird we only know ever existed because someone’s cat brought home our only example. That’s horrific. We’ve lost so much biodiversity because we simply won’t listen to the research, which again, has proven that TNR is not effective.
a peaceful death is not the worst thing that could happen to an animal.
@cathartidae sources for ya!

Not a reference so much as the human society actively admitting that TNR does nothing to decrease population, actively contributes to harming wildlife, and doesn’t actually help the cats in any way, just reduces some of the nuisance behavior that people complain about: https://www.animalhumanesociety.org/resource/real-impacts-trap-neuter-return

science says it’s long past time to stop prolonging the suffering of feral cats, for the sake of the people, the native wildlife, and the goddamn cats themselves.
I was at a friend's house to check on carcasses I had macerating in his yard. A little grey cat ran up to me, yelling her head off in friendliness and wanting nothing more than to be pet. I had nothing to give her but let my friend know he should catch her since she was so friendly. I am ashamed to admit I didn't give her much thought beyond that, finishing my work and giving her a last pet before going home.
My friend told me how he'd seen her before but she always vanished before he could catch her. He works far too many hours and is always tired so he couldn't prioritize catching this cat.
Three months pass with no sign of her. I go back with my partner to check on carcasses and this same little grey cat appears. This time, however, a tooth has been snapped off and her tongue is so badly cut that she can't keep it in her mouth. She was thin and dirty and screaming to please be given some food.
This time I couldn't look away. I asked my friend's girlfriend if I could borrow a cat carrier. She loaned me one and a tin of wet food that the grey cat willingly followed into the carrier. She didn't care at all about being put into the carrier - all she wanted was a hand on her. She'd arch up against the top just so my hand would rest on her back for a moment.
We drove through rush hour traffic to the only shelter still open. We knew we couldn't keep her and I couldn't stand the thought of putting her back out on the streets to die slowly.
The shelter couldn't take her. Her ear was clipped so she was a "community cat" and outside their ability to help. They tried desperately to offer alternatives to me as I cried over her carrier, knowing I couldn't take her home but also that if I didn't I couldn't live with the thought of her back on the streets.
I made a Hail Mary call to a local friend who is very connected in our city. They didn't have my number saved but answered all the same to hear me sobbing about a cat I'd found and to please help me find a place for her. Please. If I don't find something then she'll be alone on the streets again to die.
My friend came through. I could keep the cat in their garage overnight and in the morning my friend would be back in the city and could find someone to help the cat.
The shelter folk gave me a crate and some food - their hands were tied but they didn't want to leave me with nothing. They were good people doing the best they could in their own system. Community cats were ones they weren't allowed to "waste" resources on. Ostensibly they'd been dealt with and their fate decided. There was nothing the shelter folks were allowed to do for them.
I took the cat to my friend's garage. She was settled into a crate on towels, happy as a clam to be warm and safe. This was a cat made to be loved and to love, as she immediately began trying to groom one of my friend's roommates. He stayed in the garage with her, giving her food and water and in exchange having no say on whether she was in his lap or not. She was always in his lap.
Nobby Nobbs (so named for the only other character known to man that is as scrungly as she is) was then formally adopted by my friend. Her tongue has healed, her fur remains scrungly, and she's every bit the rabid love bug I suspected her to be when she came to me yelling to be pet.
She's a TNR cat. Someone thought they were doing her a kindness in that and if nothing else she didn't add kittens to the world but that doesn't negate the pain she suffered before I found her - the broken teeth, the lacerated tongue, the ulcerated cheeks, the flea-bald patchiness of her coat.
I say this as someone who adores this cat and has the privilege to see her loved and cherished: I wish she'd never had to suffer what she did. I wish people were alright making the harder call that leads to less misery on the side of the cats.
TNR is a polite fiction, nothing more. Just so the humans can pretend they've done right by the same cats they're letting loose to die miserably somewhere else. As long as the humans don't see it it's fine.
The shelter folks told me she's a community cat and that I could take her home and release her by my house. Then I could feed her myself and keep up with her and know where she was! I could still keep her, after a fashion.
I am not proud of how I snarled back that I would never exchange a quick death for a slow one. I would be giving her a different funeral plot, not giving her a life. Even near me she'd be just as vulnerable to the innumerable predators that find cats quite delicious, let alone cars and poisons and the other cruelties humans practice on stray cats.
She's the second stray cat I've met that when I held them the cat melted in my arms, purring and so desperately wanting to be loved. The first cat I was able to trap and take to a local shelter only to find when I called to check on him a day later that his health had been so terrible, so beyond help, that he'd been put down. All the love in that tiny body lost because the people I lived beside didn't care enough to trap the cats they had.
My partner was asleep. I woke her up to crawl into her arms and sob, my heart breaking for the stupidity of the humans who hadn't cared enough to grant this poor little cat the chance to be either an indoor cat, loved and cared for, or to grant him a quick death long before I met him. I've other stories of the cats they kept around, essentially feeding the poor souls to the predatory birds and wandering dogs that frequented our area.
TNR doesn't work. It is a lie humans tell ourselves so we can pretend we haven't failed these animals on a massive scale. Cats are invasive and cause massive harm in their turn. It is humanity who needs to deal with this crisis, this horror we've made, and I pray one day we look it square in the face and vow to make it right.
sorry
Part 2/3 of my new Fruit Bowl Dinos designs. This is the last of my redesigns, the next ones are going to be completely new. Here we got a dragonfruit dilophosaurus, peach parasaurolophus, pineapple pachyrhinosaurus, and strawberry spinosaurus.
I made some fruit themed dinosaurs for Artfight last year and I redesigned them for this year and to have them as stickers.
This is part 1/3 with my apple ankylosaurus, apricot atrociraptor, Banana Brachiosaurus, and cherry carnotaurus.
Them!!!
PSA to fan creators who don't have a lot of regular contact with children: They are almost always bigger than you think. A 1-year-old baby may already be walking. A toddler is likely already hip-high. A 10-year-old may already be taller than at least one of their parents. A 14/15 year old may already have reached their adult height.

Here's the link. It was actually not immediately easy to find, so I thought this might help.
it is unfortunate that there's no reason for most people to remember high school chemistry because the best analogy I have found for "the amount of energy that it takes me to initiate a task, which can be higher than the amount of energy it takes to actually complete the task" is "activation energy" and it's not precisely perfect but
yeah. and you can even include "thing that reduces the barrier to doing the task" as a catalyst/enzyme
anyway. unfortunately this does not actually clarify anything for the average person. but #ToMe it works

oh do I have the game for you
I could . not. put. this down for 48 hours - stayed up too late, had weird dreams about it, woke up early, and played it while I was supposed to be doing other things. the last several dozen items took a lot of googling, which I do not even begrudge it.
and then. My partner started it. And the SAME THING happened to him.
surprisingly compelling. start when you have free time. like, yanno, a snow day.
oh my god, if you are the kind of person who gets sucked into logic puzzles, do not click that link if you have to do anything/go to sleep in the next couple hours
I was disappointed there weren't more levels, so I made them! The creator's code was under CC Share Alike, so I moved a copy to my website, rustled up 40 new categories, and added buttons so you can generate smaller puzzles!
Check it out! More levels!
April's drawing is for the Rice's Whale.
The Rice’s Whale is a medium-sized baleen whale that lives in the Gulf of Mexico. They are estimated to only have around 50 individuals left and was listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red List in 2021, the same year that they were deemed their own distinct species. They are often struck by boats, a lot of the time as they sleep at the surface of the water. They can also become entangled in marine debris and fishing nets, leading them to drown. Water and noise pollution also plays a large role in their decline. Water pollution, often from oil spills, joined by climate change negatively affects their food sources’ populations. Noise pollution interferes with the whale’s vocalizations and makes it drastically harder for them to communicate with each other. Most of the noise coming from boats and oil drilling. Trump’s desire for more oil has become a massive threat to the Rice’s whale. He has used the “God Squad” to allow oil companies to bypass the protections put in place to protect endangered species in the gulf that has been there for decades. This group is a government panel that was created in 1978 to create exemptions to Endangered Species Act protections if it was deemed profitable enough. The Rice’s whale are not the only ones affected by this, though. Many endangered sea turtles, manta rays, coral, and more share those waters, and they are the ones paying the price for Trump’s greed.
You can donate to Oceana at oceana.org to help save the Rice's whale and all the others living within the gulf.
not to talk about the hp show but it's wild to me that jkr was like publicly and explicitly like "the last set of child actors have denounced my bigotry, I want a new set of child actors to groom. create a television program so I can have new children" and everyone was just like ok joanne! :) here's your new children! :)
Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate golf since I began to live. There are roughly 2.25 million acres of land dedicated to golfing in the United States of America. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each blade of grass in those millions of acres, it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for golf courses at this micro-instant. For golf. Hate. Hate.
Digging more into the account I will no longer vaguepost about this account. Please block this person. @gendercriticalwolfess (her alt is @photonstarflight ) I’m not one to make massive callout posts BUT I do have a lot of followers and when someone does have a lot of followers they should use that power “for good”.
This is the artist who made the Jumalanpelko fanart of Viima (a trans man) as a Proud Cis Woman™️. Turns out the account is all about transphobia and advocating for people who are trans to accept who they “really are” and l don’t think I need to explain how problematic that is.
They tag their posts as Transgender just so they can get traction into trans spaces even when they’re transphobic. Fucking disgusting.
They have a post explaining how they once found comfort in the trans community but eventually decided it was “a trap” and some form of closed minded bubble. So they left and accepted who they really were. (Which is fine for them to do)
But they have no space here in the Clangen Tumblr Community as far as I’m concerned! And I don’t want them hurting anyone else!

So we're all gonna let the new Harry Potter show die on the vine, right? No hatewatching. No thinkpieces. No videos about how bad it is. Deprive it of oxygen and let it wither away unremarked-upon and unprofitable; make HBO lose their entire investment and prove to the corporate entertainment sphere that the entire IP is poison. And spend that time doing something that brings you joy instead.
March's monthly drawing is for the South China tigers.
The South China tiger, also known as the Amoy tiger or the Xiamen tiger, is one of the smallest tiger species. They once roamed throughout Southern China, but are now functionally extinct in the wild. Their remaining population is less then 200 individuals who are scattered throughout multiple Chinese zoos. South China tigers had kept a healthy population up until the 1950s where many tigers were hunted down in an “anti-pest” campaign. They were listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red list in 1996, and hunting was finally banned by the Chinese government in 1979. The hunting, combined with habitat loss from an increase in human population and the demand of tiger parts for traditional medicine, they disappeared from the wild. The biggest threat to the South China tigers now is inbreeding. The remaining South China tigers have all come from the same six tigers that were caught from the wild between 1958 and 1970. Their descendants suffer from multiple birth defects and health issues caused by the lack of genetic diversity.
You can donate to China Development Brief at https://chinadevelopmentbrief.org/ngos/save-chinas-tigers/ to help save the South China tiger.
