You crimed in the wrong neighborhood. Unfinished, but at the moment I'm unlikely to actually finish it, and I quite like it how it is!

I'd love to see Lady Noire and MisterBug (either main universe or what they would look like kwami-swapped in the Miraculous Paris universe) in color palate 70.

Here's Mister Bug and Lady Noire in palette #70 (Clint Eastwood)!

This palette was a challenge to to work with, but I'm actually pretty happy with the results!

Color palettes used are from this post !

💖I Dream of [Thomas &] Alex 💖

I am BEYOND blown away by this stunning art of my forever OTP Thomas and Alex as Jeannie and Major Nelson from I Dream of Jeannie by the always amazing @callmebeem. I've honestly been squealing and giggling like an idiot since I saw it!

I Dream of Jeannie was my first favorite tv show. Jeannie and Tony were my first OTP (I didn't even know what an OTP was at the time, but I loved them with my entire being). I vividly remember watching the show in Kindergarten and First Grade (on Nick at Night and TVland hehe). I was glued to the tv in complete awe of the magic and wonder and possibility that Jeannie brought. Her joy was absolutely infectious. And with all sitcoms, no matter how bad things were in the episode, things always worked out in the end.

When I was in first grade, I experienced my first trauma. And as a result, I suffered my first bout of depression following that. Jeannie was the only thing that could even make me hint at a smile for a long time. I know that looking back at the show, it has a lot of flaws and is not something that could ever air today, but I didn't see any of that. I saw hope and I saw joy and that is what I needed.

I've carried them with me my whole life. I binged the series again over the summer so it felt like the perfect time to commission this art for Thomas and Alex at Halloween.

While I know they have a lot of differences, I love that Thomas and Alex have a little bit of Tony and Jeannie in them. Thomas and Tony both put their career first. It was all that really mattered to them. Until one day, fate brought a little ray of sunshine with just a touch of mischief into their lives to turn everything upside down. And only when they risk losing their ladies do they realize how much more they matter than their career.

Jeannie and Tony saved me when I was younger. Alex and Thomas saved me several years ago, when I didn't think I could go on another day. I found them, and they gave me hope. I can't promise I would be here if it weren't for them, so I am so eternally grateful for finding them and later this fandom.

If you made it this far, thank you. I love you and I appreciate you!

Just a note about the art/Alex's Hair

I know Jeannie has blonde hair (and her "evil" sister has brown). I had considered Alex wearing a wig, but, before Barbra Eden was cast as Jeannie, the studio wanted Jeannie to be a brunette to stand out from Samantha (Bewitched), so I felt it was okay for Alex to keep her hair.

Crackling Forest Grasshopper - Trimerotropis verruculata

For today's video post, were return to British Columbia thanks to a dear friend on mine for a second look at a specie that doesn't call Ontario home. I was amazed to observe the actions of this mottled and limber insect, or lack thereof. Although my friend got very close to this Grasshopper, it never made a move to takeoff or moved a muscle until it was probed with his finger, and even then, the insect only shuffled forward to another section of the wooden rail. By contrast, many Grasshopper species which call Ontario home (from my experience) can be very keen to turn and jump away at the first sign of a probing or an approach by another large animal and retreat to less conspicuous area. That survival strategy is a great boon for this Grasshopper too given how still and silent it can be. Combined with its cryptically speckled appearance, this insect could nestle right against discolored tree wood or road gravel and easily be missed (like the similar looking Carolina Locust) to the untrained eye. The commotion caused by the crackling meanwhile may startle, but it is more meant as an all-purpose communication tool. Case in point, it seems that this specie relies on such crackling (known properly as crepitation) to deliver warnings to rivals within its territory and to court individuals, opposed to the more commonly known stridulation process.

Video was recorded on October 1, 2024 in Squamish with an iPhone 12. The timing to upload couldn't have been more perfect. This blog's YouTube channel has just arrived at 100 Subscribers. As a result, I went looking through the blog's upload records and realized that this video was marked in haste as uploaded. When this was discovered to be false, there was no better time to share this video here.

Hello everyone, welcome to the second year of OCT-Ober!

i just want to say in advance I’m sorry for being a couple days late, school is a very stressful thing for me and I didn’t wanna worsen it.

But I digress, recently I’ve gotten notifications of people liking last year’s prompt list and some even saying they’ll participate, so I decided to make another one for this years!

Im also going to try and participate this year.

But that’s all, for anyone who is participating, have fun!

Vampire!Daenarya and her favorite food source ❤️

I absolutely adore this AU sketch art of these two by @cashweasel. I had this idea and knew Lou was the one to bring it to life! How good do they look?!

Each forehead kiss is a whisper of 'forever' against the skin.

I can't thank the loveliest and amazing @cashweasel enough for this sketch of my Thomas and Alex! I absolutely love how soft and tender it came out. It truly captures the warmth of their love for one another. 💖💖💖
