Galaxy Betta Fish.

A white beta fish curved in a c shape on a black background. Its gray shiny eye stares at the viewer. Its semi-transparent fins contain arms of galaxies and scattered stars.

Galaxy Betta Fish.

Iron is only formed in the hearts of dying stars, and its a key component of vertebrate blood. This fish, like all of us, is made of star-stuff and the galaxies in its fins reflect that.

But astro-axolotl why a fish when all vertebrates have iron in their blood? Good question. The answer is I just really, really like fish.

A dark blue werewolf silhouetted against a full slightly orange moon in a dark blue sky. Their ears are back and they're looking down sadly at their right hand's claws. Written on an arc above the moon is "You're a Werewolf" in scratches. Below the moon on an arc is written "and I'm a full moon." The lyrics are from "Be Nice to Me" by the Front Bottoms.

I like werewolves. I like song lyrics. I see song lyrics about sad werewolves: I draw. Lyrics are from "Be Nice to Me" by the Front Bottoms.

A photograph with a black background of four people in Winnie the Pooh onesies. The left most person is the tallest and is in a piglet onesie. They have light skin and long pink hair pulled back in a ponytail. They smile sheepishly with their hands in a big pocket. The person next to them is in a pooh onesie. They are Indian and are holding a piece sign over their right eye. They are grinning. Next to them in an eeyore onesie is a black woman of the same height with the ends of her natural short hair dyed purple. She has her arm around the person in the pooh onesie and has a half-smile. There's a red diamond-shaped pendant on a cord around her neck. The last person in the line up is the second tallest and wears a tigger onesie. They have white hair, a happy smile, and a black choker around their neck. They're doing nya paws.

Some young punks in coordinated Winnie the Pooh onesies. Surprisingly, Chel's idea.

Kira (piglet): Hey Chel, why are we wearing these again?

Chel (eeyore): Halloween!

Kira: Yeah, but why Winnie the Pooh?

Midas (pooh): Cause it's fun! Now smile! The timer's about to go off!

Lace (tigger): Everybody say punk's not dead!

Everyone: Punk's not dead!

A tiger swallowtail butterfly. It is mostly yellow with black veins and blue detailing on the lower wings. A light pink DNA double helix spirals out from the butterfly's tails. Yellow bases (thymine) are paired with green bases (adenine). Blue bases (guanine) are paired with orange ones (cytosine). Bases are bonded with silver hydrogen bonds. The background is purple with a lavender hexagonal lattice.

Tiger Swallowtail and a strand of its DNA.

The top part of a red brick building with two rows of balconies, each with three glass doors leading inside. The bannisters are black iron bars. In the top left balcony, a person with long pink hair leans against the front bannister. She wears a purple leather jacket, blue jeans, and black combat boots, and stares off in the distance. A cigarette hangs in between her left index and middle finger. Smoke rises towards the dawn sky. In the background, the Denver skyline stands beneath the gray Rockies.

A morning cigarette after a party.
