I was going to post stuff tomorrow for #MerMay and all that, but today is apparently International Jazz Day as well, BUT x2... it's technically May on the other side of the world too, so... With their powers combined, I give you International Jazz MerMay Day! ✨ 🎷🦭 🎷🐠 ✨ #oc #merman #seal #sea #sax

Happy birthday, David Attenborough! Scientists gifted him a tiny wasp namesake (to add to a menagerie that includes a genus of marine reptiles from the Early Jurassic, a critically endangered echidna, multiple plants, insects and spiders, and a ghost shrimp)

Oh, I never did share these old Mer WIPs from the Mer WIP pile last year either. Maybe I'll finish one of them this time! (The maybe is very big.) #wip #oc #ocs #mermay #mermaid #merman #merfolk 🌠

"I'll just try drawing some little merfae fellas for kicks..." -hand slips and designs an entire planet for them.- ... And I also threw together a mood board for it. 🌍🌺 Guess this is turning into another story project...! 🫠 #mermay #worldbuilding? #moodboard?

A #MerMay #WIP for today, featuring merfae Sally. 🤍 #oc #ocsky 🌠

I know it's early, but still... Some funky, fae-y #MerMay design exploration.~ #conceptart #mermaid #fairy #fae

Anne Hathaway, you will ALWAYS be that girl. 💙💛

Four things I'm looking forward to this month, by the way: 1. MerMay (if it wasn't obvious) 2. Magnolias in May 3. Another snail party in Snail Simulator 4. May-be it will happen this May

✨🧜‍♂️ My time has come. 🧜‍♀️✨

A somewhat spicy 🌌🌹💜 oldie that I said I might share. Just a little something before MerMay ends... (It never ends in my heart, though!) 🧜‍♀️💕 #ffix #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #mermay #mermaid #merman 🌠

I know this is running just a little bit late, but it's still #MerMay in my heart. Wanted to sign off with a little something new vs. old - and give Bubble Cat boy some more love. 🫧💙 #oc #ocsky #cat #mermaid 🌠

Once upon a time, I entertained giving my merfolk uni-horns and while those didn't stick, this little thing still happened.~ #mermay #mermaid #merman #merfolk #ffix #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #wip #🌌🌹💜 🌠

Mer concept art day for these two. Because it's fun to just see the conceptual stuff, sometimes.~ 🎨 #mermay #mermaid #merman #merfolk #ffix #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #🌌🌹💜 🌠

can you sing for me again? #ff9

I know it's early, but still... Some funky, fae-y #MerMay design exploration.~ #conceptart #mermaid #fairy #fae

this is why i don't livestream

-envisions new merfolk type, right before #MerMay.- I have been blessed with this sacred vision. Yes. 🙏🐌 (Whether or not this means I have been blessed with the executive function to pull it off, however, is yet to be seen. More at eleven.)

if anyone tells you that you're doing too much with your oc, remember lightning finalfantasy, who got to be: • a fantasy cyberpunk ex-cop single father insurgent • a valkyrie champion of the goddess • a time-traveling goth psychopomp and finally, • a parisian model for prada and louis vuitton

❌ The Times got me Tired ❌ but ✅ The Tales got me Wired ✅

More Adagio design musings as signs of life. 🖤 #ffix #oc #ocsky #conceptart #wip

"Don't ship unless it's canon" you are truly are the weakest link. Back in my day we shipped characters that never laid eyes on each other. We shipped characters that didn't even belong in the same universe or franchise. Canon is a chain we threw off long ago

✨ Impassioned by storytelling. Crippled by inability to tell stories. ✨

Also, re-uploading the goof sandwich scribble today! 🥪 #ffix #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #🌌🌹💜 🌠

And another long abandoned WIP for today. 💙 #ffix #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #🌌🌹💜 🌠

Offering the skyline some sketch dump dopamine. 💕 (Alt text details who is who and more!) #ffix #zidane #garnet #zidagger #kuja #oc #ocxcanon #🌌🌹💜

LRP: (Last Moon joy post, I swear.) They're aiming for annual stuff now, though? Hello??? After fifty plus years, we're shooting for a yearly pattern? 👀 Ah... more Moon joy for hold onto! 🌕💕

With #Artemis II 🚀 in the books, NASA are officially rolling Artemis III into the VAB! This mission marks a major step as they lay the groundwork for a future base on the moon 🌕 Artemis missions will have an annual launch cadence now, leading up to the Artemis IV lunar landing in 2028.

"There was a lot of joy up there," he continues, before joking that they were not always "on the joy train". He says he also wants to talk about "love". "When you look up here, you're not looking at us," he says. "We are a mirror reflecting you." 🚀🌕🌎

Sorry, still clinging to Moon joy for as long as I can, haha. 🫠

#Artemis II 🚀 To huge cheers and applause, The crew of Orion and the Artemis II Mission return to NASA's Johnson Space Center

Also this is a really good video that NASA released late last night as an overall recap of Artemis II.

Artemis II, both crew and capsule, all home and fully aboard.

Welcome back, #Artemis II crew. 🚀🌕💕

-waiting for someone to post the NASA photos I'm looking at- Come on... don't make me make the post myself. I'm just a little art guy who shares posts at best... ... Oh, but my barely contained enthusiasm...! 😤

omg those astronauts who are parents? THEY CAN LITERALLY TELL THEIR CHILDREN “I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK”

#Artemis II 🚀🪂🌍 Mission Specialist Christina Koch and Pilot Victor Glover are greeted by the crew of the USS John P. Murtha

#Artemis II - Mission Complete! 🚀🌕🌍 Welcome Home Orion Crew! All four astronauts have now been extracted from the Orion Spacecraft

Hello, I made you a feed of your cats watching the Artemis II splashdown bsky.app/profile/did:...

Here they come!

7:07:27 splashdown calculated. Almost got that Lucky Seven! Just one seven short! -FFVII still gives it a nod, all things considered.-
