drawing people i see in the city (50/?)

great. i was hoping my childhood would follow me forever and attach itself to my psyche and spread like mold. This is good
When doing my alchemy theories, I questioned what 7 would represent in terms of Rain World, as there aren't really 7 of anything- aside from Red Suns. There's no hard proof or anything. And I even wondered why there wheresn't 7 urges
But I remembered, like in the image I posted yesterday, the urges are moreso like elements. The ability to destroy, reproduce, connect, and process, all coming together to be aspects of the 5th karma, Self Preservation
And like the elements, everything in the ripplespace abides by these rules. The strands, on an outside view, almost act like animals trying to keep themselves alive and going through a material body. I suppose its less that the strand is you, and moreso you are the strand(s)
two rain world region concepts
3D model of an Arctic Shufaet, my fictional species ~
Made in Blender.
Their idea is old and they (as well as other related species), appeared in some of my older art, but I haven't worked with their lore and design much. At some point they became so insignificant that even just their existence in canon was questionable.
But some time ago one of them appeared in my newest story as one of the main characters, so I tried to make a model for this species, while trying to figure out who they are and how to depict them. I usually perceive them as some "alternative wolves" from my world, but in fact they are some their very own thing.
They are quite huge solitary predators from distant northern lands, still quite mysterious though and not really willing to reveal their secrets (they are known as unfriendly loners, so this is natural)
They are also drawn to crystals - in one of my previous posts I hinted that a Kotie should be careful when wandering through the crystal cave, as there are some other creatures who are attracted to such places. And so, I can finally show you who these creatures are :)
FUCK SHORT PEBBLESSS THAT MOTHERFUCKER IS A TALL ASS FREAK!!!

if you've been hearing less about gaza lately, it's because most of the journalists are dead. hassan eslayeh, who was murdered yesterday in his hospital bed by israel, had 351 videos archived on tiktokgenocide.com (an online archive of israeli atrocities i recommend you browse). this single journalist alone had contributed 351 videos. the same database lists that 252 journalists have been killed in gaza since october 7th. the cpj's archive of journalists killed is 178. they have a more conservative and less accurate estimate since they have less information on those media workers who work with local outlets.
regardless of the exact number, the number of journalists killed is so high that it is markedly affecting the footage and documentation we have coming out of gaza now. let me prove it to you: 70 people were killed today, May 14th 2025. did you know that?
the symbol of enlightenment
the symbol of enlightenment in rain world is the symbol for a fUCKING LAMP IN A CIRCUIT DIAGRAM. am i the ONLY person who has noticed it because i have literally never seen it be talked about. the enlightenment symbol in karma is also the enlightenment symbol in a circuit. a circuit. a cycle
whole rain world lore the mind electric 👍
Last night, she went to bed crying from hunger again. She whispered, “Daddy, I’m hungry…” And I had nothing to give her. Just silence. Just pain.
My name is Fayez, a father of three children, and we live in Gaza.
We are living under siege and starvation. The occupation blocks food and aid from reaching us. There’s no access to clean water, no electricity, and now we are facing a real famine. People especially children are dying from hunger.
I was injured in the war. But what hurts more is watching my children slowly waste away, while the world turns its face away.
💔 This is not just a message it's a desperate cry for help. From Gaza… to any human heart that still beats with compassion.
We don’t ask for luxury. We beg for basic survival: A meal. Clean water. A chance to live.
I don't hv money to donate, but hopefully I can spread the word!!!!
