"Loved to the point of invention" dynamic but the inventor in question is so egocentric that the end result ends up not even appealing to the person it was made for.

I think it's very interesting and a little wonderful that the internet allows for people to connect over shared interests to the point of that interest forming an entire community around it. Like, I get actual culture shock around people who have barely played video games.

I've been on that silksong steel soul grind now. Haven't made it past act 1 yet, but I'm getting close. Kind of glad it's taking me a while, the game has been a comfort to play during stressful times.

So like... what do you talk about when meeting someone over coffee? Is it like an interview? Do I prepare questions?

It's been one hell of a month already... I'm so tired, I might take a day on the weekend to sleep for another 12 hours. I've been kind of lurking on here, but I just want my friends to know I'm still looking and listening.

commission for the lovely @keymintt.bsky.social of their very equally lovely oc yarrow!!! love the bee hug the bee

Oh shit, it's visibility day. Well, uh, hey. I know most of my content is bug stuff, but I'm transmasc! Shout out to all my siblings out there, we will keep surviving no matter what.

"Came back wrong" trope but it's about re-meeting a friend you haven't been able to catch up with in years. Is this anything?

My new D&D character Riahn Bashere. He's a mastermind rogue who believes in the god of omens and fortune whose symbol is a magpie. #cervinelichart #myart #d&d #fantasyart

"Start with this" podcast is great but it's getting me dangerously close to writing a podcast myself. There's so many mediums that writing can be applied to, fuck.... how am I ever going to stick to a single one??

I feel like I'm on the verge of a Silksong hyperfixation flare-up. Maybe this time I'll finish my steel soul run or my 100% speedrun?

Beetle propagation jars for spring 🌸🌱🪲

G'mornin fellas Today we have THE FIRST BIG ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE CHANNEL I'm REALLY EXCITED and YOU SHOULD COME See y'all in around two hours! Twitch.tv/Toobular_Troll

This is cool. 🧪🔭 The bull ants know a heck of a lot more about the appearances of the moon (how fast it moves, etc) than many humans.

Things are starting to even out with this job, thank god-- though I've realized that with my IT studies, I really don't have the energy for commissions. I'll be closing my slots for now! I anticipate a future where I have a job that pays a livable wage, an apartment, and the energy to create 👍

Tonight, join the moth in the ONE PLACE not effected by Capitalism.. SPACEEE!! On top of your new model reveal done by the WONDERFUL @galaxyreach.bsky.social, Be playing a tiny bit of Cobalt Core before I gotta hit the sack here~ So.. come one come all, Join the Eclipse~ www.twitch.tv/stellathemoth

Happy Marchtroid, don't forget to put out some E tanks for Samus

#art #arttrain Wow, thanks for the tag! @2eeillustration.bsky.social @cryptid-core.bsky.social @happypaca.bsky.social @zeejeyb.bsky.social I, too, am a bug enjoyer, as you can see.

Kamen rider? I find them to be quite uncommon, actually.

My lovely bean @galaxyreach.bsky.social helped me with something amazing for my future streams~ Hope you creatures are ready c:

GO WATCH THE CATWALK VIDEOOOOOOOOOOOOOO youtu.be/yXYO6AjHZO8?...

Disco Elysium inspired portrait commission for tumblr user denn1s-lessing !! Father Alvin deltarune!

i don't think I ever shared this here but during my final semester for my animation diploma, i gave myself a small character design project to work on alongside making material for my reel. here are the beetle girls! i'd like to return to working on this idea again soon ^_^

I've been loading up on podcasts to help me get through the day while on the job-- anybody have any good reccs? (I'm doing an episode per day for most shows to avoid binging and getting burnt out)

it's Tuesday, my bugs! Page four is up!

...I should make a side account for nsfw. Not for posting, but for looking at and responding to stuff. Especially since I now have a Work to be Not Safe at, lmao.

LET'S GOOOO BABY GHOST TYPE MOST TYPE THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUUUUUT ...What? You thought bug was my favorite? I mean, I love their designs, sure, but I was a little goth kid before I was a bug nerd. www.quotev.com/quiz/1234335...

One of the items I made for the Renaissance Festival! It is a fully functioning bag with a handle on top and clasps on the side. it was made entirely by scratch, with a hard foam base, acrylic and resin details/windows and vinyl pleather for the outside. #cervinelichart

Happy valentine's day! I ended up going to the aquarium! Have a few of my favorite pictures from there:

Thanks to everyone who joined! I tried to do a more of a "gijinka/anatomical clothes" look with this one. Thanks to chat for coming up with some of the funny text, and ultimately thanks to @thatonecreature.bsky.social for suggesting this species of Hister beetle!

Let's hear it for my last stream before my indefinite hiatus! It's my pleasure to send us off with another anthro bug, while finally finishing this comm! twitch.tv/scarabknight...

Honestly, I think anyone who can bear to be a functional independent creator right now deserves a medallion. The internet is both a Stress Machine and also the infinite toy dimension. Getting shit done is *hard*.

Without downloading any new pics, describe your gender

Looks like I might have a job starting next week?? So I'll have stream on Friday, but not today because I'm doing a lot of figuring things out.

So. Uh. I may have a temp position secured? And unfortunately, I'm going to have to cancel the rest of the week's streams to manage that. Sorry about that! This isn't me announcing full hiatus *yet*, but... Likely, soon.

Third page is up!!!

Thanks to everyone who joined in! I'm very fond of this Robberfly character I made at @frogstaff.bsky.social's request... I'm imagining them as some kind of assassin with a flashy fighting style.

It's time for art! We've got a robber fly warmup, then me actually tackling the hair in this comm! If you need a place to chill out this monday, my doors are open. twitch.tv/scarabknight...

*Assuming* I don't suddenly have a full time job before the end of the week, this is the schedule! Really looking forward to playing Sonic Adventure 1 for the first time!

Hey btw my bugs and bug allies... If you're looking for a great arthropodology podcast, might I suggest the Arthro-pod? It's really chill and educational, I've been listening to it on and off since college. arthro-pod.blogspot.com

So... Ahaha..... I may have taken this "warm up" a little too far... But she's gorgeous, isn't she? Thanks for the suggestion, @hambonusmaximus.bsky.social !

It's time to pick up that stylus, grab a green tea, and draw until my fingers fall off! Or until four hours pass. Whatever comes first. I'll be doing another anthro bug warm up followed by comm work! twitch.tv/scarabknight...

Does anybody know why coffee pods seem to come in every flavor *except* mocha these days? I don't want to drink a Twix bar or a donut, I just want some chocolate with my espresso, god damn.

Well... Turns out Mister Mosquito 2 isn't a very functional game, rip! We got further than I ever have in a silksong steel soul run, at least! Looking forward to starting a run of sonic adventure 1 next week!

It's time for mosquito madness in Mister Mosquito 2! Let's go to hawaii! What crimes shall mister mosquito commit upon humankind now? twitch.tv/scarabknight...

if you see this you’re a bug now. if you already one. ummm. double bug

Page 2 is up!! cibarium6c.thecomicseries.com

ANI MEIDA will be performing at the HeartWAVE festival hosted by @nekomikki.bsky.social !!!! I will be debuting something super special SO BUCKLE UP!!!!!! ٩( ᐛ )و ⚡🩷

Thanks to everyone who hopped in, and extra thanks to @xiogrim.bsky.social and @crotchcomet.bsky.social for the raid! I'm using the anthro suggestions as warm up prompts for my art streams! Here's the dragon-headed caterpillar as suggested by @taleskeeper.bsky.social:

We're live with art! I'm going to be making an anthro bug as a warm up, starting that sketch commission, and then likely making more progress on that screencap! twitch.tv/scarabknight...
