I'LL PROTECT YOU MR CORBEAU
( ´∀`) #pokemonlegendsza

A screenshot of Pokemon Legends Z-A. Corbeau stands in the center with Philippe and the player character, who is dressed somewhat like a bodyguard with a black and white suit ensemble, flanking him in a dark, clearly expensively decorated building.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist):

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much.

you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

#splatoon3 #splatoonart #salmonrun

Digital art from March 2023. Splatoon 2 Salmon Run egg basket reimagined as a bubble tea drink. Golden eggs float like tapioca pearls amidst green tea-like fluid. A little grizzco flag is attached to an orange straw.

A little doodle of a Grizzco worker enjoying a bubble/boba tea drink!

unhinged sona/oc lore pt. 1??
┐(‘～`*)┌ first meeting #oc #ocart

1: A little frog (Puddles) poking its head out of a toilet
2: My sona (Whist) at the bathroom doorway, staring at the alien frog in the toilet
3: Whist slamming the door closed, crouching in front of it, and contemplating going to a public toilet
4: Puddles bathing in the bathroom sink. In the mirror, Whist is poking her head through the door to stare at the strange frog.

Artist! Quote with your night art! ✨️

oh heck yeah a chance to repost thisss #splatoon #art

Splatoon Salmon Run Next Wave fanart. A chibi Grizzco worker sleeps on top of a large golden egg in the night sky, reminiscent of the full moon. The inkling, dreaming of the day they get 400 golden eggs, is surrounded by doodles of clouds and numerous salmon run hazards including a stinger, flyfish (and a bomb rebounding off said flyfish), an incoming snatcher, a big shot lobbing 3 cannonballs, a smallfry, and a lifesaver teammate.

practiseeeee huehuee #oc #ocart #art

Digital art of an original character (Lynietta) sitting in an empty void. She fills it with sunflowers blooming from her music--music about to be penned onto blank paper music sheets drifting around her and strewn around the floor.
