An illustrated poster to celebrate 100 episodes of Findings from one of my favorite video creators. In a way, this is also a love letter to internet horror stories, keeping me entertained since forever :-)

Cicada shells and missed opportunities A song that cries out to be heard.

In some ways, Starscream reminds me of a Cicada. Will I ever stick to drawing a consistent design for him? Probably not. At least he looks cool.

Me and @sewghostlycosplay have a reputation for off the wall costumes. As you can see this past weekend was no exception when we decided cicadas were a good costume. I think they look pretty cool. Thoughts @onenicebugperday

A poem on realization of identity

by Keaton St. James

Boy wakes in a field of poppies with a newborn star wriggling like a live goldfish inside his mouth.

Boy breathes in the hot wet summer air, the cicada wingbeats, deersongs. He can feel the star push-

ing at his closed lips to escape. Boy exhales slow, looks up at the pink-stained clouds, then swallows.

(In nine months the Angel of Truth will bloom inside his stomach.)

I’ve been reading a lot of historical accounts of various cicada emergences and while most of them have a decidedly negative tilt to them (still common in news reports about this topic today), I really liked this one from the Ottawa Free Trader in 1854

So there I am 12 years old, I don't know how the word Cicada is pronounced, and I don't even know its a kind of bug, but I have seen it used in a sentence like "the cicadas are singing". So OBVIOUSLY I assume its a kind of bird, and my brain simply starts autocorrecting the word to CHICKADEE every single time I see it.

Now I'm 24 and I have in fact figured out what a cicada is at this point. But even so I struggle to not read the word as chickadee every single time
