Unfortunately, my New Year's Resolution is 240p

From 2016. Splatterwork is so fun, and we love a coyote. #art #watercolor

Happy New Year all. 2025 was another really hard one for me. The last couple years have been just... heartbreaking and hard. 2026 will still be challenging, but yenno what? We don't have to do 2025 again. That one's over. All done. The next steps might be difficult, but we're still moving forward.

"What was your biggest impact on the Internet?" made this comic

Happy New Years to me apparently :0

This year has been a real shift for me in many ways. I finally, fully gave up on the career I spent so much of my life pursuing (working in the industry). & decided to, in extreme financial uncertainty focus entirely on my convention work. Its been hard, tiering, stressful but extremely rewarding!

My little collection of mantis pins, getting an inspection from my girl Princess. I can't really afford to collect enamels but I decided to make a single exception: Mantises!

Who Who is responsible for this??? 😭😭😭 (Pin and sticker by @hexabeast.bsky.social !)

Princess the mantis wishes you all a merry Christmas and a very nice holiday season. 🎄 (manip created with all my own photos; no A/I)

It took four hours and so much disassembly but I closed on the patient and they turn on again and the fan is no longer making a weird noise.

It's still unsettling to me that a computer can still run while almost completely disassembled. The patient should be asleep while their guts are all over the floor.

Gamers. It’s time

Aw shucks thanks for all the likes and reposts on this one! I'm starting a Ko-Fi with wallpaper downloads of my artwork and just uploaded this one. The artwork is fully reworked to fit each aspect ratio! ;w; ko-fi.com/feathercritt...

@hugegreencat.bsky.social Lmao I was looking at my post and saw I was at 68 reblogs and was like "damn, I need one more" and you were on it. Thank you.

Song of a Winter Night (2018) Happy Solstice ☀️

Of all the sins of AI, this is an unexpected and deeply annoying one

Never bred my mantises before, but Princess is a very special bug with a fantastic personality. She's also v healthy for her age and has now laid 3 infertile ooths. Guess I'm in the market for an adult/sub adult male Deroplatys Desiccata, if anyone knows someone else keeping this species (USA). 👀

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

25 years ago today, ‘THE EMPEROR’S NEW GROOVE’ released in theaters.

I have GOT to make weirder and gayer art.

There's still time to get an order in and shipped before Christmas! I could really use the extra income as the holidays approach!

Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.

A little color to start off the weekend – a vibrant monkey grasshopper, Paramastax sp., from Colombia. They really do look like this - no saturation or vibrance added during processing. #bugsky 🐙🌿

I am GOING to finish this watercolor today. This painting has taken more than a year.

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends. scz.org/blog/the-rea...

Look at this crab I found the other day🦀 It was way too cute.

Finally back after around 31 hours, jeez.

24 hours ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ughhhhh my Internet has been out for eighteen hours x__x

Hey friends who know more about cookware than me: I need a new frying pan and I have a $50 crate and barrel gift card I've been trying to spend for twenty years, what should I get? www.crateandbarrel.com/kitchen-and-...

Introduce yourself with five animals you have seen in the wild: (Godddd how to pick five????) Humpback whale Grizzly bear Wolf Moray eel (and I touched it) Adult antlion I might have to do five more and also see if I can pull the photos I have of most of these

Question for my transmasc (or other) friends on Testosterone HRT — Are you on an estrogen blocker as well? (ie. anastrozole) I've heard some doctors don't actually do an estrogen blocker at all and was wondering how common that was

This beautiful ant-mimicking mantis (Acontista festae) was one of the first finds on our survey at Emerald Arch in Ecuador! The adult may not look much like an ant, but its babies will fool you. Acontista nymphs sit on flower heads, so it seems that ants and flying pollinators are their main prey.

#telekitneticart #indigenousart If you weren't aware already, this is the unfortunate hand I've been dealt this holiday season: having to job hunt in the winter while a potential recession is on the horizon. ko-fi.com/telekitnetic... RBs on this post are really appreciated <3

Earth Tender 🌱#Amaterasu #Okami

Juvenile mantis, Costa Rica (I think Chaeteessa sp.). Well-camouflaged creatures are among my favorite macrophoto subjects; what seems drab from a distance almost always has beautiful complexity up close. Look at the thin yellow edging on the raptorial forelegs, for instance. 🐙🌿 #insects

This was incredible, thank you everyone! My feet hurt so bad lmao but worth it

See you tomorrow, Denver!

A little something different as a bonus reward for my patrons - one of my macro photographs of a bee fly!  This wallpaper is now available on my Patreon at the $5 tier! https://www.patreon.com/feathercritter

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
