The flag this moth is based on represents peoples who identify as trans who are either transitioning or have transitioned. They can be male, female, or intersex peoples who have changed/are changing from one gender identity to another physically or socially. Now it's on a moth! Enjoy it for the colors or for what it represents! Art by me, King KimiNeko!

I wonder what kind of sentence I'd have to write to get the genome sequence of a fox? I don't think just writing that by itself would be enough tho so I'm gonna tell yall abt my plans for Valentine's Day: cosplaying/dressing up for the first time! I'm making a mask for it n everything too >:3 it actually might be done by the time this comes up but don't quote me on that lol.

Anyway this is a wacky blog. this webbed site is truly full of wonders.

Fun fact: Green forester moths (Adscita statices) aren't always green— on cool nights they become a rusty orange, then change back to blue-green in the morning.

This color change is possible due to the unique structure of some specialized wing scales:

The layers of tiny air pockets in these scales absorb water vapor from dewy night air, changing the way the light refracts:

Their color change reverses as the wing scales dry out in the sun:

Somewhere in the woods, a moth tires of seeking light

#gempearl #shinyduo #shiny duo #not meant to be shipping propaganda for the poll but I mean... feel free to take it as such!!#the solitary plants feel out of place and maybe the color gradients could be better but its fineeeeeee. Not my proudest background...#also haha get it. Moth tires of seeking light. There's light all around her but its symbolic you guys #vaguely inspired by an estonian song. Some of the lyrics:#Luck pat her little girl’s head and repeated that beautiful is everything that there is #The girl then smiled and that was enough for her heart to understand where the sun lay #one of my favorite songs ever. Very beautiful and Id love to make an animatic or smth for it but the lyrics get a bit too specific :(#Shame that its in estonian and probably offputting to a lot of people too but.... õnn ja arm by mari pokinen.......#hermitshipping #commission #centaur cuddles tee hee <3 #horses etc cant actually twist their bodies that much without it hurting them I think. But please suspend your disbelief for me pleasee #tubby art
