Well seeming as a pigeon painting from 5 months ago decided to gain over 1000 notes in one day for some reason, here you all go, more pigeons. Enjoy pfft

Should it be known that the first one was done on a mighty two layers, honestly most of my stuff is all two layers.. (sketch for the lineart wooo who needs lineart)

i cant stop thinking of the gif of the kiwi jumping around its so funny the way that thing moves like gravity doesn’t care about it it just prances wildly and freely it falls over but it doesn’t care it just keeps moving and having fun and just keeps hopping and the party never stops it’s legitimately one of my favorite pieces of media on the internet the joy it brings me is unbridled

look at it again

Rating the birds in my backyard by tendency toward violence

Northern Cardinal, 4/10

I'm sometimes worried the male is sexually harassing the female but I'm pretty sure they're just doing some elaborate public pickup roleplay. The rest of us didn't agree to participate in your kink, guys.

American Robin, 1/10

Literally just some dude hanging out. Never bothered anyone but worms. Big fan of the way you just stand there in the middle of the grass like you forgot what you were supposed to be doing.

House Sparrow, 10/10

You're a gang. You're participating in gang violence. There's ten billion of you living in a single wood pile and it's been civil war for three years now. When will the bloodshed end?

Tufted Titmouse, 1/10

A shy baby. A pretty little guy. I saw you on the neighbor's garage roof and time stopped. There were anime sparkles around you. Come back.

European Starling, 9/10

Why is it always you? Listen, I know, I KNOW the sparrows are the problem, and YET. When the fighting starts, it's always you in the middle of it, provoking them and then screaming like you're an innocent bystander defending yourself. I'm onto you.

Carolina Wren, 3/10

This rating is not for physical violence, which you don't engage in, but for your role as an incurable narc. A tattle tale. I know they're fighting again, okay? I see it. Our yard has been a warzone for years, you don't have to make a big announcement every time someone misbehaves.

Eastern Wood-Peewee, 0/10

If this were "birds who think they're better than everyone else," you'd get 10/10.

Red-bellied Woodpecker, 6/10

It's a utility pole. It's not a tree. You're surrounded by trees that are full of bugs. But there you are, on the utility pole. Committing vandalism.

American Crow, unrated

For who am I to cast judgment on the actions of La Famiglia? I assume you are doing what is best for the neighborhood. If I could, though, without criticism, make a single observation. That when large numbers of you gather in the ominous dead cottonwood - no? No, you're right. None of my business.

Great Crested Flycatcher, 5/10

Frankly, I think you could be doing more. I think your name implies a great potential. I think you should massacre the insects. I think your beak should drip with viscera.

Stay tuned for more criminal activity!

1) While I laud your observations as well your discretion re La Famiglia, I gather you have never encountered Bongo, Son of Bongo, or their ilk whose life's mission is to eradicate the male cardinal that lives in the sliding glass door *bonk* *bonk* *bonk* *bonk*

2) I would like to submit House Finches/Purple Finches/All the Damn Finches 8/10 for birdfeeder squabbles that were our breakfast entertainment pre-internet.

3) Having moved west, I know why the Aztecs saw hummingbird as a war god. Sooner or later some evil mastermind is going to genetically modify hummers back to dinosaur size, feeding them on fruit smoothies and Red Bull, and kill us all.

Blue Jay: 7/10

angry angry ANGRY but, at least in my yard, all talk and no action (and you're not fooling anyone with those blue feathers - we all know you're corvids even if you aren't part of La Famiglia)

Common Grackle: 5/10

You're almost always first to show up when I throw the unsalted peanuts out. The danger you present, oh pretty pretty grackle, is the sneaker sneak sneaky kind. You don't have the reputation for smarts that others on this list do, but I can always see you thinking.

I feel like this hasn’t been said enough, but the animation in across the spiderverse is so good because into the spiderverse was able to prove that it works. Like y’all need to understand the impact that into the spider verse had on the animation industry. It proved that animation styles can be diverse and people will enjoy it! If that movie didn’t come out we wouldn’t have gotten puss in boots last year or teenage mutant ninja turtles this year. We wouldn’t have gotten the Mitchell’s vs the machines, we wouldn’t be getting wish or migration. Into the spiderverse and it’s various animation styles were and continue to be revolutionary in the same way that Toy Story was revolutionary 30 years ago. They literally forced a change throughout the whole industry! And it gave the space for across the spiderverse to do even more!!

The bottom line is, across the spiderverse is only able to be so great because into the spidverse set the standard and paved the way for them too.

growth is pausing as i go to open twitter and thinking "actually we don't need to do that"

the difference is that twitter is like being actively hit in the head with hammers, whereas logging on to tumblr is like being a given a hammer and expected to hit my own head with it. which i do.

🚨🚨🚨 friendly reminder that tonight is owenn’s first show opening for taylor and y’all better break your voices screaming for him thanks!!!

Y’ALL BETTER SING IS ALL IM SAYING

don’t let me down swifties he’s been eras posting for weeks he’s so fucking excited and his stage presence is INCREDIBLE and i have a feeling he’s covering King of My Heart please be loud for OWENN tonight 😭

I’m VERY excited to show you the back cover of Speak Now (my version) including the vault tracks and collaborations with Hayley Williams from Paramore and Fall Out Boy. Since Speak Now was all about my songwriting, I decided to go to the artists who I feel influenced me most powerfully as a lyricist at that time and ask them to sing on the album. They’re so cool and generous for agreeing to support my version of Speak Now. I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and can’t wait to unveil it all to you on July 7th http://store.taylorswift.com
