All about:

The Clowny

The clowny is a fascinating breed of clown of currently unknown origins but may have been the result of crossbreeding or strange mutations that have evolved in spaces where humans are not populous. They are mostly found in Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and some parts of California, although there have been reported sightings of the clowny in New Mexico, Arizona, and Nevada, these have not been confirmed at this time.

The clowny usually appears as a horse or pony with a curled rainbow or otherwise vibrantly coloured mane, colourful clothing, and a red bulbous growth on the bridge of the nose just above the nostrils (but some lack this trait). The red bulb is not a second nose but a brightly coloured sphere of cartilage of unknown purpose. Instead of the average horse noises, they make a variety of honking noises. The most common horse breed variants are the Appaloosa and the American Paint Horse, but the clowny can be a cross of any horse breed and any clown breed. It is important to note, however, that the purposeful breeding of clowns and horses to produce a clowny (or for any other reason) is highly illegal.

Their diets consist of grass, hay, grains, certain fruits and vegetables such as carrots and apples, cotton candy, funnel cake, snowcones, and one of the most important staples of their diet, circus peanuts. Clownies absolutely CAN NOT be pellet fed. Pellets do not have adequate nutritional value to give the clowny its much needed energy and strength.

Clownies are recommended to clown owners who have the experience and land necessary to care for regular horses and ponies since they act very similarily. They need a large area to roam and be ridden frequently. They pair extremely well with rodeo clowns and are excellent choices for livestock companions. If you are not a fan of horse riding, your rodeo clown will almost certainly be up for the job.

Some rare variations of clownies have been observed by field coulrologists, such as the zebra/clown crossbreed (the clownbra), or the donky/clown crossbreed (the clownkey), but have not been made available for legal acquisition at this time due to their unpredictable nature and unknown population status.

Do you know about the clowny? Talk about what you've observed!

@the-art-ghost I drew Icarus, but tiny. I wanted to draw this cute little guy for a while, but I was worried I would fuck up his hair (I did end up fucking up the hair. his hair is kind of hard to draw, I don’t know how to draw curly hair, which is funny because my hair is curly irl) I drew a mini Jack horse to make up for any mistakes I made. Also, couldn’t find any pictures of his shoes colored, so I just gave him brown boots. (Hope that’s okay.)

tumblr tuesday: yeehawgust!

Gee up! We’re already halfway through this year’s Yeehawgust, but there’s still time to take part. Did you know cowboys would move cattle roughly 15 miles in a day so as not to wear their charges out or make ’em too skinny? Did you know the all-important camp cook was sometimes referred to as the “biscuit shooter,” “belly cheater,” or “bean master?” Did you know cowboys would often sing to their sleepy cattle to soothe them at night?

Whether you’re the strong and silent type scanning the horizon or the joker of the group perpetually playing pranks and your harmonica by the fire, strap on your chaps, tilt your hats just so, and swing yourselves into your saddles. This is your Yeehawgust roundup.

Old McDonald's toy display for $150.

Horse girl bed with tiny stables built into the base, that horse is so disheveled and tired looking. At first glance I thought it was photoshopped into the picture. $800

The scariest ashtray I've ever seen. $50.

"Strange, alien hunk of something

What mysterious object has fallen from the sky and into my yard I cannot fully discern. It has an eerily radioactive lime green coloring, though my Geiger counter registers no dangerous emissions. Exactly what you need if you’re hoping to lure extraterrestrial treasure hunters to your home." This one is a bargain, only $10!

Admin Sam here, my gram would have 100% carted that Ronald home the second she saw it

Writing Mihawk in love is such a balancing act, because he's for sure dramatic- You can't just have a personalized coffin boat and not be called dramatic- but at the same time, he's stoic as shit. So no he's probably not going to go for some grand public display of affection, but that doesn't mean he's not gonna be Extra.

Like Crocodile mentions some variety of tomato he had as a kid, and although Mihawk doesn't say anything at the time, he immediately gets to work finding the right seeds, meticulously crossbreeding them to retain the right flavor but also to ensure they flourish in Karai Bari's particular climate, and then finally delivers a basket of them to Crocodile without so much as a word, and Croc just needs to understand on his own that this is how Mihawk expresses his love

Meanwhile Mihawk just tells Buggy one day that it's a shame that he can't see the clown's organs when Buggy chops himself, and if Buggy can't see the love behind those words, well that's on him

Quick doodle I made of these two being silly. 🤡 🐴

[souryellows]

there was a room in the old family farmhouse that was technically my uncle’s office but we just called it ‘the clown room’ because it was decorated floor to ceiling with clownery. clown paintings and posters. piles of clown magazines. clown statues. and even worse is the house was burnt down at one point and when they finished fixing it up they put the clown room back together with the same decorations, now all at least somewhat damaged in the fire, the worst of which were the horrific partially melted clown statues

sensitive topic incoming

not a haterpost i promise.

sect leader yao is not a reliable source

further explanation/hypothesizing:

it happened exactly as sect leader yao said: self-explanatory. the version of events preferred by jiggy antis

he mercy-killed rusong: maybe rusong was already showing signs of a life-altering disorder as a result of the incest. or maybe jiggy just felt that, if the incest information ever came out, rusong would be doomed to a life of suffering in a heavily prejudiced society. jiggy himself had spent his entire life suffering and getting kicked around due to his own proximity to society's pariahs/taboos, so perhaps he felt that he could not subject his son to the same miserable existence. thus, jiggy gave rusong a more peaceful end, before (in jiggy's mind) society could force rusong to suffer.

he allowed rusong to die through inaction: this is really only a "kill" under a utilitarian moral framework. by this explanation, maybe jiggy found out in advance that someone was planning to kill rusong; however, for any of the other reasons listed here, jiggy decided to do nothing and allow the assassination to happen. thus jiggy would consider himself guilty of allowing rusong's death to happen through inaction.

he did it to justify eliminating an opponent of the watchtowers: maybe the advancement of the watchtower project, which jiggy knew would make society a safer place, had hit a deadlock because of a particularly stubborn opponent. so jiggy killed rusong and framed the opponent in order to engineer a situation in which his annihilation of the opponent would be entirely socially sanctioned.

and here is where the utilitarian arguments come in. perhaps jiggy knew that the watchtower project would improve the lives of millions of people and would make society as a whole safer. and he saw that one political opponent as the final major barrier. and jiggy could think of no other way to get rid of this guy. so jiggy weighed the lives of those millions of people against his one son, and concluded those millions of strangers were weightier; his son became his iphigenia.

of course, this is still a rather unhinged plan to just come up with on your own, so perhaps a better explanation of events is this reasoning paired with the "he allowed rusong to die through inaction" series of events.

rusong was killed by political opponents and jiggy blamed himself: now we reach the "he didn't do it" section of the potential explanations. jiggy has a habit of claiming kills he didn't strictly perform himself; so long as the chain of cause and effect can somehow be traced to somewhere near him eventually, jiggy will claim credit for someone's death. this is how jiggy takes credit for the death of jin zixuan: even though [novel canon] no one forced wei wuxian to lose control of wen ning and no one forced wen ning to attack jin zixuan, jiggy still acts as if he can call himself jin zixuan's killer, simply because he sent jin zixuan to wei wuxian's location.

jiggy, in pursuing the watchtower project, aroused a lot of public anger. jiggy made himself, and by extension his wife and his child, the political enemies of many, and thus political targets as well. thus, if an enemy targets the life of jin rusong because they are jiggy's enemy, jiggy is entirely justified in feeling as if rusong's death is his fault. after all, if he hadn't pursued the watchtower project, then maybe rusong would still be alive.

jiggy said "he had to die" as a Cope: losing your son sucks. perhaps jiggy, in the despair following his son's death, tried to cope with the new reality by telling himself that rusong would have had to die anyways, because he was an incest baby. if rusong was always slated to die, then the fact that rusong is now dead can now be survived. thus, "rusong had to die" becomes an emotional coping mechanism for jiggy.

no, jiggy himself is uncertain if he allowed rusong to die through inaction: this one is a a bit fanciful but bear with me here. on one hand, jiggy loves his wife and son. on the other hand, jiggy is horrified by his marriage with his wife and by the existence of his son, because his wife is also his sister and his son is the product of incest. jiggy lives with not only this horror but also the constant fear of exposure, because if this information ever got out, the lives of himself, his wife, and his son would all be over.

rusong's growth thus becomes a source of dread, not hope: every day lived brings the possibility of rusong developing some disorder or condition that eventually proves the incest. is it not possible that jiggy, living every day under such fear, might come to believe that things would be better if rusong stopped growing older? if rusong died--then gone too would be the evidence of the incest, would it not?

now along comes the political opponent who assassinates rusong. jiggy does not see it coming and jiggy is thus unable to stop it. but afterwards, upon beholding the corpse of his son, what does jiggy feel? rage? despair? no--relief! he feels relief! though he also grieves, the constant fear shrouding his entire life has, for once, lifted!

but if jiggy is relieved by the death of his son, what does this imply? can jiggy truly say, with full confidence, that he did not see the assassination coming? can he really say, with heaven and earth as his witnesses, that his failure to stop the assassination was not to some degree a choice? is there truly no small part of him that did in fact see the assassination coming--yet, knowing it would be so relieving for him, simply chose to do nothing?

but if jiggy did not see the assassination coming at all--if rusong's death truly cannot be pinned on jiggy at all--then what does that say about jiggy's power? about jiggy's safety? jiggy being innocent of killing through inaction means that jinlintai really is somewhere assassins can penetrate into. then jiggy's son really was killed by a force jiggy had no way of stopping. then, in this situation, jiggy really was powerless.

you can remove the ambiguity and argue the case either way: jiggy knew about the assassination and let it happen, jiggy legitimately knew nothing and could not have stopped the assassination. but the ambiguity makes this scenario more interesting to me. jiggy lives for the rest of his days uncertain if he chose to allow his son to die through inaction, or if he really was just weak enough to fail to protect his son. maybe jiggy's memories of the incident even manage to start distorting after a while, implying either one or the other depending on jiggy's own mental situation.

thus, when jiggy says "rusong had to die," he's uncertain if he's justifying his actions or delusionally coping with a reality he had no hand in making. when jiggy says "i killed my son," he's uncertain if he's even telling the truth or not.

ah well. this is basically original fiction at this point. it's just a potential scenario.

anyways, these are just a few scenarios based on various meta and fanfics of this subject ive read over the past few months. you can probably come up with all sorts of explanations. whatever you come up with, though, should be better than just blindly taking sect leader yao at his word.
