In fairness to the worms I did have to uncover them to discover this, they were trying to be discreet

A four panel comic where my frog sona opens the worm box and says “let’s get some worms for the frogs”, they pick up a particularly long worm and says “wow that’s a really long worm”. The next panel looks at the worm in detail and there’s a big censored box over the middle of the worm because it’s actually two worms. My frog sona looks down at the worms and says “Oh…” realising what they are seeing

Obviously the freaky worms were returned to the box to do whatever they were doing in peace 🪱 #comic

It makes their lifts so much more impressive then

Convinced it’s not real tbh that everyone’s lying but my trainers do actually get the buzz so these people work out amongst us

I really just hate that the solution was actually very simple and all that was stopping me was my own laziness and the fact that I don’t get a buzz from exercise

Literally had this where it constantly felt like someone kicked me up the butt and a few months of exercise and it was just gone. Hate when the thing that’s good for me is actually good for me

Really wanted to do this specific tarot card because I’ve scheduled myself some adversity for 2026 and while I know I can overcome it, I simply wish there was no adversity

Rare moment when the scanner does not betray me colour wise but does betray the fact that I am unable to create straight lines

A photograph of five similar drawings of a frog version of the star tarot card at different stages, from sketch to partial to the final piece on the bottom right. A frog with two jugs pours water out both, one into a pool of water the frog has one leg in and the other onto land where the frog has the other leg. Behind the frog is an apple tree and a mountain in the distance. The sky is lit by 8 stars.

This took so many attempts because I didn’t have a clear plan for my colours and approach (very important for watercolour which I learn every time I do one)

A mixed media piece based on The Star tarot card. A frog with two jugs pours water out both, one into a pool of water the frog has one leg in and the other onto land where the frog has the other leg. Behind the frog is an apple tree and a mountain in the distance. The sky is light but 8 stars. There is a gold border around the piece

Emerged from my art hiatus to do a frog tarot piece for @gra-phite.bsky.social challenge, every once and while it’s nice (not nice) to challenge myself with a traditional piece #art

What’s even worse is I’m not even swole, so like no one knows I be lifting weights. There is literally no obvious benefit here (except it no longer feels like someone kicked me in the arse)

Nothing worse than when you can’t sit without pain, had to invested in those donut pillows and it was all because I have to cycle to work 😔

Absolutely hate when the solution to something is something I don’t want to do. Like all I want to do is sit but now I gotta do weights to sit down pain free??

Like no joke, I had terrible pain that made it feel like someone kicked me in the arse constantly and the minute I started exercising more it vanished. Absolutely raging honestly

A screenshot from HBOs Hannibal, mads mikkelsen looks disheveled looking down off camera and says “I gave you a rare gift. But you didn’t want it”

Absolutely no one:
Squee:

Please understand I love Ditto very much and all this is said affectionately

A photo of my pet whites tree frog Ditto. They are a pastel green with patches of brown and a white underbelly. They are sitting very politely with a big smile on their face. There is absolutely no sentience behind their eyes

If you think the tragically born without a brain is harsh then please meet Ditto: they refuse to have gender and have never thought once in their entire existence and I genuinely believe lack the capacity for thought

Drawing for myself? No why would I want to do that
Drawing for the frogs where at least one was tragically born without a brain: they need this like yesterday

A photograph of three small crayon drawings on a cutting mat. The first one is of a smiling frog on a lilypad on some water with some rushes in the background on a sunny day. The second is of a smiling frog with its back to us on a beach at sunset. The third is of a smiling frog sitting on some leaves

A photograph of my pet whites tree frog Ditto on a pink couch stuck to the glass door of the tank. Ditto has a blank expression on their face. I have stuck 3 small drawings to the outside of the tank for my frogs to peruse

People kept sending me that video of the girl who drew and stuck up art for her frog so I gave the people what they wanted and did the same. Nothing but the best for my babies 💅 #art

A overhead photograph of my pet whites tree frog Beans in her bath, Iv taken the photo to get a view of her shape from above

What am I gonna do with my new found skills? Make a Beans model. Already started gathering my refs

A completed donut is a badge of honour, people who don’t have one will look upon me jealously

I haven’t had it in me to create anything in ages but in the face of a lot of RAM I could either play my old ass city builder or make a donut (I did both)

A image of 3 3D iced donuts with Lilypad sprinkles on a white ceramic plate on a marble table. Drawing on top of the image is my frogsona doing the wojak pointing meme at the donuts. A crude drawing of my pet frog beans is on the donuts

Got one of works old animation computers which meant I had no excuse to not defeat the optional boss of artists: the blender donut

Crawl on the ceiling above the toilet and then accidentally fall in. Usually from the end of August onwards I gotta check the toilet before I use it just in case the spider can be saved

The rule is as long as she’s nowhere near my bed it’s fine I guess but it means I have to put the lid on my toilet down because the amount of times Iv had to fish one out of the toilet is more than 0

Well I understand the ladies come in first and then they bring the boys to the yard, mine lives in the joint of my window and sometimes she’ll fall into my bathroom and be deposited outside

Common House Spider: can’t wait to go into this house to find a mate for the autumn
Jay: oh no you don’t

I got this on my steam deck and I can play as the frog so this is automatically a 10/10 game for me, I think Iv gotten near the end of it and I kinda wish it was longer or that maybe Iv missed out on a lot of stuff
