A carved pumpkin, surrounded by darkness, is illuminated by an LED candle. The carving shows Final Fantasy's character "Gimmie Cat" who is a lanky cat with big eyes, a big grin, and little bat wings on its back and ears.

Happy halloween! Gimmie a diamond! Gimmie aether! Gimmie candy! (It's Gimmie Cat!)

An illustration of a young woman with green hair pinned in an updo. She is wearing a dark blue qipao with a pattern of plum blossoms and a slit along the side. A few talismans are tucked into a garter around her leg. She's smiling slyly at the viewer, one hand on her chin and the other wrapped around her waist.

Tao Jun, the young mistress of the Tao clan and number one girl who I was obsessed with as a teen... Her parts are so small, but I love her so much.........

I wanted to give her a unique outfit (I didn't want to draw a dragon) so we'll say this is sometime between the original series and Flowers!

billions of ticketing records are sold to the US government; the DHS, and records show agencies like ICE, CBP, ATF, TSA, and others.

malignant iron scorchingly devoured the baptismal blood

a woman with her eyes closed who appears to be glitching out -- there are dissolving pictures of her playing a stylized cello, goldfish swimming in code, eyes that see nothing and possibly too much

Here is a Reddit threat that explains how to disable Copilot in Windows, which I've just followed:

Sneaks, black cat, doing his best impression of a kayak

Absolutely ridiculous

smart guy in an rpg: hmm..
party member: what's wrong?
smart guy: it's nothing.

smart guy: so it's true... i knew it.

Two drawings and two small photos of the cat, Pyaari. The drawing on the left is wearing a blue dupatta. The drawing on the right is in a gold sari with a dupatta on the head.

Pyaari is so decent 🥺

A little Mia Goth-ic, from Del Toro's upcoming Frankenstein.

"Perfect Blue" (Satoshi Kon) returns to theaters (4K remastered) in Japan (November 21), USA (October 3), UK (October 10) and South Korea (now playing).

tfw the lack of shelf/bookcase space is more a deterrent for me rn than spending the $400/$500 USD 😶 when will the suffering end

Fan art of expedition 33. Maelle is in the forefront with her rapier, while the ghosts of the previous expeditions fight alongside her.

For those who came before #expedition33

it was not so much the fear of striking hidden rocks, as the fear of that hideous whiteness that so stirred me

two figures grasp each other's hands and cross swords. they are dressed in uniforms that conceal their features and identities. they have matching swords.

a tall, heavyset man with a five o' clock shadow glances off to the side. he has several ear piercings and one nose piercing. he is grinning happily and his hair is pulled back into a bun. he's dressed in several warm colors and quite a lot of jewelry. he has brown skin and dark eyes and seems very approachable.

The Raen Au-ra Defiant Bride poses in front of a backdrop of spotlights, posing dramatically. She has goat hooves, claws, scales up to her ankles and a very large tail. Fur around her shoulders is camouflaged as clothing, while her apparent cape resembles bat wings. She smirks, ready to take on all comers.

Star of the Arcadion and Chimera Feral Soul user, Defiant Blaze seeks a new challenger!!! New fans also, find her merchandise on sale at the Arcadion Store~

Art depicting a group shot of three mech pilots and their two NHP companions in fantasy style tournament costumes. The forward figure is dressed as an undead knight; behind him is a demonic looking robot with an angel riding on her shoulder, his sword held high, and two goth fae, one male and one female, doing a pas de deux.

Made a band t-shirt style group shot for our #lancerrpg tournament team! The tourney they're in is less Pankrati and more WWE, hence the high tech cosplay

There's actually two NHPs here but they are vastly different people who prefer vastly different subalterns 😂

Still much to be done, but let's pop down the flats anyway! Her Arcadion name is Defiant Blaze, I think.

I'm counting on the well known phenomena of noticing what you want to change AFTER you share it
