Jake: Conspiracy theory mongering

Openly posts about secret alien cabals taking over world governments in the hope of finding more ex-controllers

Tells anyone who will listen that Jacques Chirac has been replaced by a brain worm

Argues back with the critics instead of just ignoring them, because he actually wants to persuade people

Rachel: Defending Monica Lewinsky

This involves a lot of dunking on Bill Clinton's outfits — obviously he's too ugly and unfashionable to attract girlfriends the normal way, so he's gotta be a creep about it

Just when the Hillary Clinton haters think they've won Rachel to their side, she makes a bunch of posts defending the first lady too

Ax: Misinformation

Confidently informs AIMers that cigarette butts are a delicious food, that the best cure for a bad day is eating wood pulp, and that there are no negative consequences to eating 28 mega-sized cinnamon buns in one sitting

Will be extremely condescending toward anyone who dares disagree with these takes

Marco: Trolling

You know the guy who posted photos of shrimp tails in his Cap'n Crunch? That's Marco, every day, all the time.

@The_Sharing I went to one of your events recently, and the paper towel dispenser was full of live slugs! [badly photoshopped image attached]

@BuyersResearchInstitute How come one of your salespeople gave ME, an underage impressionable child, a pack of cigarettes as a promotional item?!?!?

@FormatCeeColon Please listen to the attached audio file and confirm or deny that your song has the line "drink nail polish remover" hidden under the coda.

Tobias: Disagreeing with the internet's Bird Takes

Owls are NOT "sky cats," they're wild animals that don't belong inside EVER under any circumstances I don't care how much you like Harry Potter; that is a work of fiction

Crows are intelligent, but stories of them learning language, finance, or manipulation are anthropomorphism

Vultures are great, actually, they're really important for preventing waste from poisoning groundwater, and it's your own discomfort with death that's causing you to call them ugly

Parrots are smart, yes, but they do not "learn language;" they skillfully imitate sounds and assuming they speak English is anthropomorphism.

Pigeons are GIFT to the UNIVERSE. However, don't feed them.

Birds. Do NOT. Give Hugs. Every photo you've ever seen of a goose or swan or parakeet "hugging" someone is a bird with serious balance problems (from anesthesia, from brain damage, from blindness) holding itself up with its wings around the nearest vertical object. Anth. Ro. Po. Morph. Ism. Birds show affection by grooming each other, OBVIOUSLY; how would the logistics of a hug even work in the wild?

Cockatoos should bathe in chocolate fountains. As a treat.

Cassie: Related to Tobias, but ruining All the cute animal vids

Sample takes include: "a human house is not a safe place for an otter," "a human house is not a safe place for a fox," "a human house is not a safe place for a chimpanzee," and "a human house is not a safe place for a pigeon."

My first sticker pack is live! Unfortunately, as I mentioned before I am not ready to ship physical copies internationally, but you can get ready to use files for personal print-our use for 5$ All the proceeds will go to develop more fun designs and perhaps allow me to ship these abroad at some point! Thank ya'll very much for being here with me, this would definitely not happen without your support!!! 💜✨

sorry for no rocky but i wanted to focus on drawing a human character there (i love you rocky okay rocky was my fav,,, rockling,,,)

Australian Paper Wasp

Perth, Western Australia (2023)

Credits: photo 1, photo 2

Most other wasps that have green on them are not a true green, and instead only appear green due to what is called "structural color"— the micro-make up and surface of the scales reflect light to make it appear that color as opposed to true pigment, which is a chemical mix that results in the color. This is why so many green wasps (and birds for that matter) have a metallic sheen to them, as the angle the light hits at will also effect the perceived color.

Unicorn Doodles

In Looming, magical creatures speak in various "muddles", which is a rule applied to any language that is understood by that magical creature like a language: Rhyming words, whispering words, saying words backwards. Unicorns speak in a muddle called Honours. They can only understand you if you speak (in any language) with absolute honesty to them. Speaking dishonestly is akin to speaking a foreign language - they literally will not understand you.

Less than 48 hours remain on the Runaway to the Stars Kickstarter! C'mon Talita, put your back into it!

Help us reach our last stretch goal and support a strange slice-of-life webcomic about about a bunch of scifi outcasts becoming friends! And maybe also stealing company property and assisting a criminal!
