This is the first page of a multi-panel 12 page comic strip by saucypaws, featuring two anthropomorphic female characters: Pepper, a shorter, curvy calico cat with short hair, and Whitney, a taller, athletic horse girl with longer hair. Both characters are getting ready to go out somewhere and are wearing just their underwear. The comic aims to depict a tender moment relating to body image and insecurity.

Pepper is standing in front of a full-length mirror, looking at herself while holding up a green velvet strapless dress as if she is unsure whether or not she wants to put it on or not. We see a close up of her face and she is clearly very unhappy. Suddenly, a very alarmed Whitney comes rushing in: "Shoot!" she exclaims. "What time is it?" - the two of them must be late for something...

Digital painting of an anthropomorphic bird with green and pink feathers and a long feathery tail named Haru. They are wearing a tied gray flannel shirt over a black crop-top and denim shorts. They are in an energetic pose with their left arm raised, right art lowered, and right foot off the ground.

if you want butterflies, you need to live with
caterpillars.
iam not being metaphorical, i work in a garden center,
stop buying plants 'to bring in the bees and butterflies
and then immediately poisoning every caterpillar that
dares to consume a single leaf
you will not get butterflies if you kill all the things that
turn into butterflies! what are you doing!

(end of post)

below it, a response from afroartinc:

As a poet, I also want my viewers to take this rather
beautiful allegory into account.

Digital painting of a white-breasted nuthatch clinging to the right side of a smallish tree trunk. It is in profile facing down except it has its neck and head stretched so that it is gazing out the right side of the image. It is a small bird with black cap, white head, neck and belly with soft gray wings with a touch of light blue and highlighted by edges of black and white.

The thing about trying a new thing like drawing or writing is you have to be willing to suck at it, sometimes for quite a long time. In our age of instant gratification, people don't want to go through that stage but I'm here to tell you it makes the day you produce something you truly love so sweet

In my Steam review of Dwarf Fortress, I described how safely teaching dwarves to swim by creating a swimming pool is absurdly fiddly, and ultimately more difficult than simply creating a magma pump doomstack to obsidianize an entire underground lake and all of the reptile men inside it. The game seems almost intentionally designed such that, and I quote my own review:

>it is easier to build an apocalyptic magma superweapon than it is to teach your dwarves how to swim.

This is a great example of that. You guys are trying to split coins and are discussing industrialized pain magic because the game has robust systems for pain magic but not for coin splitting, and it's easier to create the Goblin Torment Nexus and Coin Splitting Apparatus than it is to split coins in a sensible manner.

Also, to be clear, this isn't a criticism - I built the Obsidian Pyramid of Perfect Safety to contain all the bodies of the Necromancers who died in my Adamantine Spear Trap Necromancer Execution Room, and also the single (un)living Necromancer who somehow survived it despite losing all of his limbs, thus ensuring that because he can't ever die and nobody can access the pyramid, my fortress can never fall to ruin.

ase's design through the years.
2013: a simple, boxy-snouted dragon. looks depressed. labelled 'louis'.
~2018: a dragon labelled 'ase' next to a few scribbled-out names. looks apprehensive. their mane has grown out, their features softened, and some plate scales are now on the bridge of their snout. their eyes sport visible lashes.
2024: a nervous dragon with an awkward smile. their mane is even fluffier, and they now have a second set of ears. one more plate scale adorns their snout.
2026 (marked work-in-progress): the dragon now has horns and the very front of their mane is grown down to cover half of their face. a toothy, animalistic, though genuine smile is worn - made by pulling up into half-snarl in a face that isn't built for typical expression. a fifth plate scale adorns their snout. the lashes are no longer present. they look away bashfully - "i'm... working on it!". eyelashes are no longer prominent. there is a question mark by their name.

two versions of ase.
one, the 2013 design, faces right, depressed and cowering, barely looking ahead. they're curled around themself, clutching the straps of a backpack. a cloud of static is beside their head, featuring a shock of white, black, orange, and teal.
another, the 2026 design, faces left. tall, quadrupedal, looking ahead and upward, smiling and hopeful. their tail sweeps around the other dragon protectively. beside their head are seven coloured markings in a neat array.
in the negative space beneath the larger dragon's head, level with the smaller dragon's: "it turns out pretty good, hatchling."
