95 million percent no one cares but i managed to loose the rubber seal in my hydroflask lid yesterday without realizing it (dropped lid by water fountain at work) (don’t flame me for still having hydroflask products i’ve owned one since legitimately 2010 and i like them okay!!!!) and it was the last standing lid i still had that was the old style flip top one and if i have to get a new one cause i lost the seal i’m going to be. so beyond pissed cause all the new lids upset me is it too much to ask to want to purchase the same product i’ve had for the last fourteen years ??

Can I Pleeaaasssee have a Rivulet design? Pretty please? I’m interested to see how you’d draw the eyes, like would they be buggy or sprite accurate? Also SOS would be cool. THX! Wait I mean thanks not-

OH GOD the thx sonic boom

so this ask sent me on a Journey... what was supposed to be a quick drawing spiraled into a whopping 15 different rivulet designs. the full thought process is under the cut, but if you want just the favorite, here's a rivulet based off of a flatworm!

(ps you should totally check out my character design rambles because theres a jetfish rivulet and a shrimp rivulet too and many more)

so the first thing i tried to do was a very simple rivulet design:

however something in this just wasnt enough. im not sure if it was/is the body type similarity to the other slugcats or the fact that i didnt even address the eyes, but i tried to fix it by making the eyes more canon accurate

unfortunately this was Still Wrong. it just felt like i was redrawing the canon rivulet when i KNEW i could make it more visually distinctive. my biggest issue was trying to get the eyes to be sprite adjacent while still remaining buggy because its not rivulet if it doesnt have those big sopping wet pathetic orbs. so there were a Lot Of Eyes

somehow along the way i got distracted and after a long bout of doing something completely irrelevant (trying to make a pupil system for sprite accurate eyes??? it looked bad) i decided to tinker with the body more. leech rivulet came to mind and i drew it because i thought it would be awful in a funny way, but it was...

...not bad?

while it wasnt really rivulet, it was still a step in the right direction: mixing and mashing rivulet with aquatic species appeared to yield interesting results. so after doing the next reasonable step and making a sockeye salmon rivulet which was only mildly cursed,

i started playing god with various aquatic species off the top of my head

+ shrimp

(not pictured: attempts at a horseshoe crab, a barrel-eye fish, and a rivulet with eyes on the top of its head like a halibut which ended up looking like a scav grown out of a test tube. those 3 did not look good)

i did also end up with 2 extras, which i wasnt sure if they were freaky in a fun way or freaky in an "oh dude wtf" way

and finally, there was a jetfish rivulet

which, excluding the flatworm, should be an exhaustive list of the nonsense i did with riv's design. the flatworm ended up being my favorite because the wavy sides and riv's blue color just make it look too much like waves to pass up.

bless you, taco bell executive from long ago, for thinking that 'darth maul's top half' would make a great lid.

If plastic was bad, why would there be so much in everyone's blood? Good Morning!!!

the rat saga continues (it might hopefully be over? i have not heard a rat in like. three days?) in that i was washing everything in my wardrobe (smelled like rat) and i discovered that one of my favourite dresses has been ripped up by their claws :( was my bridesmaid dress for my close friend :( the fabric was deadstock but the place it came from are doing a shout out to see if they can find a metre for me to cut a new front panel - otherwise i'm gonna have to get real good at embroidery real quick

honestly, i'm just imagining his main account looking so formal, and classy (iykwim) and his finsta is just. chaos.

re: tags I put on this post by @persephoneprice

Yeah, this public facing accounts are definitely like that! For his privates/personals, it's chaos in a way, but in my imagination, it's like sparse and random chaos? I guess is the best way to describe it is maximum 5 posts at a time (he keeps deleting posts) and it's like:

A fast food cup from the top down on a white table. A throwback picture to the Capitol kids playing Ring-Around-the-Rings. Mirror selfie before event at the Presidential Palace but he's not looking at the mirror he's looking down at his phone which is chest level. A really blurry out of focus shot of an Academy classroom taken with the camera peeking out from his elbow during class. The sidewalk with his shoes poking into frame.

He just rambles in the captions, or there's no caption at all.

Like, somehow it's almost an aesthetic, but it's also clearly a guy who doesn't know what he's doing?

Oh fuck the pwhl made merch that makes me weak in the knees

a small hymenopteran with an exceptionally spherical ass just very very politely attempted to enter my drink through the top of the straw which I of course politely said no to but hi wow I think it is a bit too early in the year for this encounter madame.

my "favourite" game to play with myself is called Somewhere In This House, the rules are very easy you are looking for a specific object and you know for a fact that it is Somewhere In This House/Flat/Room but it is hiding from you specifically and you have to hunt it down

people's irrational hatred of attached bottle lids is hilarious to me. it literally saves you losing them and makes them easier to open and close, what's to complain about
