Sometimes I can't sleep, so I'll get up and draw for a while. It gives me headspace.

Apparently a part of the reason why farmed bees stay in the beehives that humans build for them is because the farm hives are safer and sturdier. I don't know how a busy Discord server's worth of bugs that only have one brain cell each would logically conclude that the humans protect them from outside threats, illness and parasites, but if I understood right, the bees would be free to move away and build a new nest somewhere else any time they'd want, and they simply choose not to.

You know how in almost every culture, people have some concept of "if I sacrifice something that I made/grew/produced to the Gods, they will ward me and my harvest from evil"?

So, in a way, don't the bees willingly sacrifice a part of their harvest to an entity not only far greater than them, but nearly beyond their comprehension, in exchange for protection against natural forces wildly outside of their own control?

So tell me, beekeepers, what are you to your bees, if not a mildly eldritch God?

Sometimes I forget that I'm an actual person with a tangible effect on people around me, and I'm not a vague entity just vibing along

Identifying INFPs

- huge cryptid vibes, probably looks for bigfoot on the weekends or has asked baba yaga on a date

- wakes up as late as possible and often has insomnia for one reason or another 

- the friend with the WEIRDEST dreams, not daydreams, just normal dreams, probably very similar in style to Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

- if you insult their fandoms (even by critiquing them constructively), you insult their honor and they will break down

- cries a LOT but only a few people know exactly how much, usually just their s/o, one friend, and the people they live with

- they have friends but for some reason they forget that they have them pretty often

- realllllllly bad at making the first move, probably needs BARE MINIMUM 4 months to make any kind of interpersonal decision

- also generally indecisive, always the friend who takes a while to order their food

- usually a bad driver and kind of proud of it, I have known some who flaunt that they watch anime while driving (conversely, doesn’t know they’re a bad driver and insists that they’re fine even though they’re 15 miles above the speed limit)

- has the most beautiful poet brain, probably writes you love letters and stories, definitely expects them in return regardless of what kind of relationship you have

- has an emotional style of texting, uses a lot of emojis or emoticons, keysmashes, and the amount they text you per text is super dependent on how much they know you exist and/or like you

- ghosts people without realizing it because they’re deathly afraid of confrontation

- really, their greatest fears are (in no particular order) 1) do other people think I’m not smart? 2) will I hurt someone’s feelings? 3) is someone hurting my feelings? 4) will I be able to live adventurously without money? 

- LOVES LANGUAGES, they want to travel abroad more than anything sometimes, foreign countries are their escapism

- 99% chance that they have tried to learn French at some point in their life, the other 1% is reserved for other romance languages taking priority

- afraid that they may have commitment issues

- can feel really distant sometimes because they’re always internalizing their feelings 

- very prone to being high/drunk, often can easily become addicted if it becomes their chosen emotional escapism  

- caught between living a cottagecore life in the forest and living in a city full of culture

- tries not to lie and wants to be authentic but often does accidentally because they’re insecure about how people see them

- wants to be with someone who takes care of them because they often are not great at it 

- will go with you on any adventure so long as you take care of the planning 

- when you fight with them it will really fuck you up for the rest of your life and they will feel that way for a long time too 

- they are magpies and want little gifts that reminded you of them, often just a little flower will do, maybe a poem, or a painting 

- ART MUSEUM DATES will make them loose their shit they love them so much and want to kiss you in front of all the paintings and make the remark that you two are the best masterpiece there

- gushy soft squishy babies, you will call them many things and all of the things will be something exactly like that (if you can be around an INFP without calling them baby respectfully then I don’t know who you are)

- lovecore. that’s really it. they’re in love with love and love doesn’t always love them back.

These ten ducklings were found orphaned and they were brought to a pet duck called Stella who had just hatched nine of her own two weeks prior. She immediately claimed the ten as her own.

Posts that be like “If I were a monster that had to eat people, i would just eat horrible people~” are so absurd to me. How often do you see Known Criminals on the street? Billionaires out for a nightly stroll around town? Effectively fucking never. If I have to drag myself to the grocery store, you think it’s gonna be any easier for me to hunt Bezos and Co. every time my stomach growls? I can’t bother to plan meals more than a day in advance, how am i gonna perform whole ass detective work to confirm someone’s a serial killer before i eat them? Ya’ll got that much time on your hands? Planning 5 course meals every night of the week? Don’t make me laugh. Eat a pedestrian and tragically wrestle with guilt like the rest of us, idiot.

I found a copy of my mom's favorite book from childhood! It's called Striped Ice Cream and I'm gonna wrap it in plastic and then some foil and bury it in a gallon of Neapolitan.

And I'll say "look, mom, I got you that striped ice cream you're always talking about!" and convince her to serve it up for dessert.
