Nonbinary Angry Bird just dropped. If that's anything.

it’s always “eli and the hawk persona as a metaphor for masculinity/the queer experience” but it’s never eli and the hawk persona as a metaphor for the neurodivergent experience and masking. hawk is CLEARLY eli’s way of masking - he is literally following a social script, adhering to social cues and speech patterns he created to look tougher out of a need to SURVIVE. he literally distances himself away from demetri who is LITERALLY THE DEFINITION of neurodivergency (misunderstanding social cues, special interests, slower development when it comes to karate) out of fear that he might be perceived as anything that isn’t his neurotypical persona.

sure we talk about it, but we don’t talk about it in the sense of how powerful that makes the bond between him and demetri - “this is who you are.” “a loser?” “my best friend. i know you think that that mohawk defined who you are. but it didn’t. not to me.” it is the most POWERFUL thing to me when we get this narrative where demetri will stand by his side not in spite of or because of his neurodivergency but just understand that it’s a part of him. no babying, no shoving one part or another down - just acceptance. and only when eli gets that acceptance is the mohawk not a mask anymore, but a facet of his own personal beliefs, dreams and interests. hell, it’s why i can finally say that YEAH - I’M LETTING HIM WEAR THE AMERICAN MOHAWK. it isn’t some persona he wears anymore like a lie - it’s his enthusiasm for his special karate interest. and i like joking about flag desecrations, so why not.

this is a very happy/positive ramble, so i’m not going to get into complaining about how more often than not the mischaracterization of eli peeves me off so bad because my brain unconsciously connected it to people infantilizing autistic characters. LET AUTISTIC CHARACTERS HAVE FLAWS AND EXPERIENCE EMOTIONAL TURMOIL IN THEIR HIGH SCHOOL JOURNEY OF SELF DISCOVERY! IT’S FUN!

I finished my Doodle page!

It’s a mixture of different characters I’ve made- or have interest in- or was trying to figure out how they work/look.

Click and zoom in if you want to see them better

Yes I’m aware the most drawn character is Hallow-

He’s my son- I can’t just not draw him!

Also yes. I ship Ruin x Solar. I understand it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but please respect the fact that I personally like the ship.

Let's talk about gay penguins for the next day of pride month!

I think most people know at this point that penguins are known to be gay, and even lesbian! But what most people don't know is that they've been seen to engage in homosexual behavior since at least as early as 1911!

See a scientist, George Murray Levick, documented the behaviour in Adélie penguins at Cape Adare, but described it as "depraved". He decided it was too shocking for public release so he hid it. The only copies that were made available privately to researchers had the English text partly written in Greek letters, to prevent this knowledge becoming more widely known. The report was unearthed a century later, in June 2012 and was finally published.

Unfortunately that's not the last time gay penguins would cause an uproar.

There have been a lot of homosexual behavior seen in penguins in captivity, including Roy and Silo, two male chinstrap penguins in New York City's Central Park Zoo. They were noted by staff at the zoo in 1998 to be performing mating rituals, and one of them in 1999 attempted to hatch a rock as if it were an egg. Zoo keepers decided to give them an egg from a pair of penguins, which could not hatch it. Roy and Silo spent two and a half months raising the healthy young chick, a female named Tango. When she reached breeding age, Tango paired with another female penguin named Tanuzi!

Now for the "controversy".

And Tango Makes Three is a children's book published in 2005, telling the story of Roy and Silo. There was a lot of support, but there was even more backlash. Despite having ten awards and two nominations, it appeared on the American Library Association’s top ten banned books, banned in 2023, 2020, 2017, 2014, 2012, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, and firstly in 2006, just a year after it was published.

Alright, enough sad stuff, lets talk happy.

Here's the thing, penguins often lay more than one egg, though usually only one chick will survive. In captivity same sex penguins will adopt (or steal) extra eggs to incubate and raise the chicks! It's likely this happens in the wild, though it’s harder to say. Visibly, male and female penguins tend to only differ in size, and not by much. On top of that, they act very similar, particularly in terms of reproduction. Both males and females invest pretty equally in raising their chicks. That means it’s difficult to tell male and female penguins apart and even more difficult to identify any wild mating pairs as homosexual.

There have been many records of captive same sex penguins, and, there's even what could be considered a non-binary, or genderless, penguin.

In 2019, mothers Rocky and Marama hatched a chick together at sea Life Aquarium in London. This chick caused further controversy after the aquarium announced that it would not be assigning the chick a gender. The chick is identified with a gender-neutral purple tag rather than the usual gendered name and color coded tag. Beyond that, the penguin’s life will be the same as any other penguin at the Aquarium. They say that Gender means nothing to penguins, so why have we continuously assigned it to them? The General Manager of the aquarium comments that the decision to raise a genderless penguin is following an increase in conversations around human gender neutrality.

Happy day 22 of Pride Month folks! We’re celebrating Nonbinary Pride today with an adorable Costa’s Hummingbird and some lovely Primula Silver Lace Black flowers 💛🤍💜🖤

[na-bird-of-the-day]

Wanted to share some bird photos I’ve taken in and around my neighborhood in Miami! Many of my neighbors keep chickens and I love seeing the more uncommon kinds of chicken.

Peacocks just kinda run rampant here. Some people feed them but I don’t think they belong to anyone.

As for the birds near the lake, I actually don’t know what kind they are, but I love to see them

Oh I LOVE fluffy chickens! And peacocks are always such a beautiful sight :)

The birds by the lake are white ibises and a wood stork! Beautiful birds!

Im back with Oc Art. Some traditional sketches of this birdy, Ari (they/he).

Absolute treasure, they are. I forgot there birthmark in the smaller sketch but it’s whatever.

They’re a former prince/princess (either is find) who escaped an abusive situation with the help of a penpal

Happy Witchcore Samantha Wednesday!

For those of you who are new here, this orginally stemmed from my obsession with Sam Winchester and Sastiel in the Supernatural fandom, and in an attempt to provide Sam a better life, created an AU with a transgender MtF witchcore Samantha, a genderfluid cottagecore beekeeper/gardener Cas, and non-binary toddler Jack

New audiences call for a slight change in direction, and while Samantha, Cas, Jack, and I are still available to answer questions about the family, Witchcore Samantha Wednesdays will now be focusing on making moodboards that fit the cottagecore and witchcore vibe. Suggestions and prompts are always welcome, just shoot me an ask or a DM! Today's moodboard is dedicated to @lord-kaira, who suggested the theme of embroidery.

Also, a big THANK YOU to everyone who liked and reblogged my last two moodboards! The Samhain hit over 120 notes and the Dia De Los Muertos is pushing 250!!! Thank you for all your love and support!

As with the rest of my moodboards, none of these pictures are my own, and I claim no credit for any art or design used, only for the concept created

(If anyone wants to be added to/removed from the weekly tag list, DM me and let me know! I'm also open to suggestions for moodboards that fit the cottagecore/witchcore theme, although I'd like to do an Indigenious moodboard for Thanksgiving- if anyone has any Native heritage and would like to share their traditions, let me know!)

Who's is your ml glup shito?👀👀👀

Glup shitto: obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week

That would be this weedle guy right there:

I am so protective of Duusu. Duusu has been through The Horrors™ only to come back stronger and more adorable. Duusu is a life-giving god-like creature with the braincells and attention span of a gold fish. Duusu is smol, blue, and a bird — it doesn’t get better than that, really.

And in most scenes they’re just. Standing in the background by Felix’s shoulder. Not talking, just. Staring into your soul.

Talk about being a third wheel.

I have been dying to get some cute Felix and Duusu interactions and I felt so vindicated to see how soft my boy is with his tiny friend, even if they were only onscreen for ten seconds tops!

It's been a while, my loves. The blonde is blonding, the roots are rooting, I saw a hawk the other day(two weeks ago), and I completed my esthetics course!! Wish me luck on my State Boards 🤠

Eclipse & Binary-

Originally I gave Binary talons bc he climbs and clings to nearly everything that isn’t the floor- it a personal head canon of mine that they just can not stand properly, on the floor, for long-

So here’s Binary perching on Eclipse like a bird-

It’s Binary’s favourite thing to do

It doesn’t really hurt Eclipse that much- they have some dents in their casing and get stiff shoulders but it doesn’t hurt. Binary is also surprising light- not as light as Hallow but very close to being so.
