with his arm around dean.
can we please talk about the color symbolism going on with ASL bc i constantly think about this bc i'm obsessed
when ASL were kids, their colors were red, blue, yellow
peep their flag
now we all know Sabo's color is still blue but what interests me is the way Ace and Luffy's colors evolved bc if you google what their official colors are you get this
(google thinks every color in Ace's character design is his color, but we're focusing on the orange)
so Luffy evolved from yellow to red—Ace's color—and Ace evolved from red to orange—a combination of their childhood colors
i also want to bring up the color of Luffy's haki, especially showcased in Wano
we know his haki is typically colored as red but what surprised me was
his yellow haki, or his ryou, i guess and also
the way his haki is orange too? especially when using his Ace-inspired move?
ok, ok, so in childhood Ace was red and Luffy was yellow and to me that makes sense bc
also, Luffy being represented by both colors as he gets older also makes sense to me because he had two sides that absolutely embody the two separate meanings of the colors
but like the symbolism of orange???
personally, i think Oda was COOKING with the color symbolism with these freaks bc when i fucking think about it it makes me emotional
Luffy wears Ace on his heart every day when he wears red, he honors him with his orange haki, and Luffy still hasn't forgotten who he truly is when he's in yellow
Ace, though, completely incorporated Luffy into his personality, he didn't keep the pain from his childhood trauma but covered it with the joy and warmth he learned from Luffy
knowing Ace left a permanent mark on Luffy, and he's happy to showcase it every day
but
knowing Luffy fundamentally changed Ace down to his very core, and he was so proud of it
anyway, that's what i get out of the color symbolism that is happening around ASL, thank you for coming to my tedtalk

Fish of the Day
Today's fish of the day is a bit different from normal, instead of focusing on a particular species of genus we will be focusing on landlocked salmon today by special request of Topi!
(Atlantic Salmon)
Landlocked salmon are notable due to the inherent nature of the salmon life cycle, where salmon hatch in a freshwater stream, migrate to the ocean until they achieve sexual maturity, and then travel back to the same stream they hatched from. However, landlocked salmon are unable to migrate and spend their life cycles entirely in freshwater. The three main landlocked salmon would be The Kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), which are a subspecies of sockeye salmon, the Formosan landlocked salmon (Oncorhynchus masou formosanus), which is a subspecies of masu salmon, and finally the several populations of landlocked Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).
(Formosan landlocked salmon)
Landlocked salmon hold almost no differences to their sea run relatives, other than that which speciation provides. Almost always landlocked salmon are far smaller. Considering that salmon are mid level carnivores, whose diet shifts based on age, freshwater prey is just simply less available than marine prey is. Salmon fry survive off of zooplankton, which is available in large amounts in freshwater, but as they grow into juveniles who eat worms and larvae, but by the time they are of age to transition to the marine environment, they rely on larger prey, such as other fish or squid. This is why landlocked salmon are far smaller, and often considered a far blander flavor by fishers.
(Atlantic salmon)
Another difference between the anadromous (migratory) fish and the non migratory is based on the migration pathways themselves. Landlocked salmon species tend to spend their lives within lakes, as they tend to offer more large prey than rivers do, and when after reaching the end of their lifecycle, these fish tend to run rivers connected to lakes, searching for the same stream they were born in. Those salmon of which were transported or by some means found themselves the first generation of landlocked salmon tend to search only for a safe area, other salmon, and higher elevations during their migration. Of those salmon landlocked only in lakes with no connection to other bodies of water there is significant inbreeding, and disease often tends to kill these populations out. It is thought that salmon of which are acclimated to freshwater and intentionally landlocked have a higher chance of surviving after spawning season, as some salmon species possess the ability to survive the spawning, and return to the ocean for another year. This is something that is not fully understood, and currently being researched by many of the fish hatcheries along the Columbia river, major rivers in California, and along the Atlantic. We may understand the relation between the stresses of moving from saltwater to freshwater better in the future!
(kokanee salmon)
To focus on the landlocked variations of Atlantic salmon for a moment, these are individual populations caught in the many lakes or river systems along the Eastern coast of the United States and Canada. These fish in particular are known as some of the best for fishing in the areas they live in. These fish can be found in a range from the Atlantic coast all the way as Western as Lake Eerie in some cases, living in cold water conditions, with growth being the highest at temperatures of 67-77 degrees fahrenheit, and a diet that is mostly made up of insects and small fish, often cannibalizing other young landlocked salmon.
(Atlantic landlocked Salmon)
The kokanee salmon is found along the Pacific coast, in many different lakes from Alaska to California, and as far East as Idaho, and in some rare cases, Nevada. There are also populations within lakes in Japan and Russia, although there is debate on the subject of speciation for these populations. Although some populations of kaknee have been intentionally introduced across lakes and freshwater systems much further East in the United States. Thes fish can get as large as 8-20 inches, and have a handful of morphological differences between them and sockeyes. Kokanee have a higher number of gill rakers, smaller egg size, and a higher efficiency rate in taking in red coloring from food sources to distribute in their eggs. They can live a lifespan around 4 years before spawning and passing away, as these fish do not survive after breeding, and can not interbreed with sockeye salmon.

The Formosan landlocked salmon, also called the Cherry salmon, is found in Taiwan. Living in the Lishan mountain range, these fish survive in cold water at extremely high altitudes, with an upper temperature limit of 60 degrees. These fish are thought to have become landlocked by the warming of the Dajia River during the last ice age. They live along the many small creeks and backwater streams, with an extremely endangered population with only around 4,000 living at any given time. Cherry salmon are exceptionally small, reaching only 30cm (around a foot) with most around only 6 inches in their adult life. Subsisting off of bugs and small terrestrial life that gets close to the water. These fish survive only around 4 to 5 years before breeding in higher colder waters, and passing away for their fry to replace them.

Those are the landlocked Salmon everybody! Have a wonderful day
Hii I just saw your latest zosan art it was super cutee!! What if you drew a bonus drawing of sanji joining chopper and zoro then the 3 of them play together.
I think this would probably happen :)
(for context)
This is the second evolution of the ladybug 🐞
Cassidine beetle, Elytrogona quatuordecimmaculata, Cassidinae
Found in the Dominican Republic and Haiti

I can't explain in words how much I LOVE this 😍
My 1st time drawing Allura! I only drew 4 separate poses before I got one that looked alright. She's definitely the type that wants to look pretty while kicking your ass lol 6 cards done, 1 to go!
I love them so much
he's so cute lol
WE LOVE Y'ALL
😎
I cried because of a sweatshirt
Just started thinking about how I haven’t worn a sweatshirt in forever and how I can’t wear one till it get colder(because I easley overheat). I literally started crying because I missed my sweatshirts. My mom was very concerned and then said that I can wear them while we camp, which helped me to stop crying.
Sooo true
The only man worth chasing this summer is the ice cream man.
Omg. This is hilarious
I’ve barely even watched Voltron but
The Seattle pride parade was such fun. I had a blast walking in it with REI!!
