Couldn’t stop thinking about Mic having alarm clocks as merch with the special volume options Min - Max - MIC. Production was stopped after too many complaints with people getting hearing problems or constantly bursted windows.

I play a very dangerous game
it’s not my fault people have the gall to make attractive OCs
So today while playing New Horizon, I caught a familiar looking fish that I didn't really know much about. Though called the Napoleonfish in the game, I know it as the Humphead Wrasse.
According to Blathers (that lovable owl) this fish is endangered, but doesn't really give much more information than that. It really left me, a person fascinated by the outside world, wanting more than just that measly bit of fact and boy does the game not do this fish justice.
Found in the coral reefs of the indo Pacific region, the humphead wrasse is a very large fish, growing up to 2 meters long.
They are a powerful fish, with strong teeth, able to break down clams and mollusks with little to no effort. So, if this fish is so powerful, why is it endangered?
Well there are multiple reasons, but one reason that stood out to me is that not a lot of people know about this fish. The lack of awareness of this species. So I've decided to do my part and bring awareness to this fish.
This animal is classified as endangered, however it is also considered to be "conservation dependent" meaning that by this point it is a species that relies on our help. Human help.
So why care about this animal? Fantastic question. As mentioned earlier, the humphead wrasse eats shellfish and other hard to eat animals, but the most notable thing that this fish eats is the dreaded crown-of-thorns starfish.
This invertebrate feeds on coral reefs, and with very few predators to prevent it from over populating, these starfish can strip entire reefs of it's coral which is vital to all life in the ocean.
The humphead wrasse is one of the few animals that can withstand the crown-of-thorns' toxins, and can keep the population in check.
But how can we help more?
You can:
Educate yourself more about the species.
Support the WWF, as they have a program that helps release humphead wrasse back into the wild.
Do not fish for this animal. If you catch it by accident, let it go.
And finally respect this amazing animal for it's majesty and power.

i hate that my body don’t function properly because i’m underweight, because honestly i want my gross ass period back
i fucking hate how weak my body is

Do you have a true way of fixing mistakes? Like to make it up to someone to the point where they can fully trust you again?
If you hurt someone you shouldn’t expect them to trust you again eventually, people come and go, and you shouldn’t attempt to force them back in your life, even if you want to do it in the kindest of ways
The most you can do is to show improvement and apologize, whether they want to forgive you and trust you again is up to the person, but as long as you did what you could, it’s all good, it’s for your own future and the one of others
telling trans people not to transition in favour of using therapy to diminish their dysphoria is recognized as conversion therapy and has negative effects and doesn't actually cause them to have their condition relieved.

with all that’s happening every day please remember that there is an epidemic of violence against trans people, particularly black trans women, and that anti-trans and essentialist rhetoric gets people killed
if you want to help you can donate to an org that supports black trans people
if you cannot donate then at the very least please take a second this pride month to read about the issues that affect the trans community and how you can help in your life every day to change minds and hearts to protect those who are most vulnerable
Hell yeah, 1000 followers!
This was a commission from @aizawasgays that I admittedly was way too excited to draw.
Context: Aizawa in his 20s showing off his top scars~ Listen, if there are two things I’m here for it is trans Aizawa AND positivity towards top scars and transitioning.
My commissions are still open! This one is a $15 sketch commission. :)
hey y’all. it would mean the world to me if you would share Justin Howell’s gofundme. We’re from the same area, and hearing about him on the news yesterday was like a punch to the gut. During a protest in Austin, Texas, Justin was shot in the head by an officer. He suffered a severe brain injury and is in for a long, long road of recovery. his family are accepting donations here for medical bills and more importantly, bringing the APD to justice. #HisNameIsJustinHowell
