love pickles. a little pickle never killed nobody. Unless you’re in one. Then shit ain’t funny.

realizing cis women also struggle with “passing” a lot of times and has a lot of the same issues with dysphoria trans women have (issues with putting on/losing weight, dissatisfied with bust size, not feeling “feminine” enough, etc.) has done a lot to combat dysphoria for me, cause it’s like, wow, we really have a lot more in common than we have in difference huh

A Cuttlefish in motion

I was mesmerised by the motion of their fins so I challenged myself to make an animation of them.

Such a cool fish to have in your tank :D

Todays creature is:

Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon innesi )

[Wikipedia link] Image description also under the cut!

[ID: a digital painting of a neon tetra fish, a small common aquarium tetra with a iridencent blue stripe along its side and deep red lower back half. The fish is otherwise grey with pale belly. The fins are translucent near the ends. The background is painted to look heavily blured with greens yellows and browns common of aquatic plants and substraight. The overlay is in aqua writing. In the top left is the text "todays creature painted" inside a stick fish. In the bottom left is the text "neon tetra" and below that is its scientific name "paracheirodon innesi". In the bottom right is the date "13/4/25" end ID]
