    That's a good one, a chuckle that keeps returning and still hasn't gone away. I don't even need the lines on the sides, all I need is that damn dot to be centered.

    Since I have changed my profile picture, I’ll explain this one now lol

    It’s a cropped screenshot of a drawing I did depicting a character of mine called Wavepaw

    She’s one of my favorite characters I’ve ever made so she’ll be my profile pic for a while

    My avatar is Georges Brassens, a French poet/singer heavily influenced by classic French poets. He’s one of my influences as a poet.

    Ultimately everything can be resolved to sex or one of its accoutrements; the parallels know no boundaries, literally.

    The circle who's center is it's circumference is also a boob. Actually it makes perfect sense. We all suckle from the teat of mother nature, do we not?

    It's from my recent sojourn to western Nebraska, a back-road near Chimney Rock, a road that fades into the early morning fog. It goes so well with the Willa Cather (a Nebraska author) quotation about the road. And of course a road that seems to end in mystery is an ideal metaphor for life, IMHO.

    Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke. I found the picture online.

    As for the road, it reminds me of David Lynch music video "I'm waiting here", and Jesse Marchant's trilogy music videos and Frost's poem on two roads diverging.

    I like striking images. Simple as...
    It's a Falkirk Kelpie... A water-horse; really massive sculptures on the outskirts of Falkirk. There are two. To give you an idea of how big...

    My avatar is symbolic.
    Bees are my spiritual animal.
    The bee symbolizes hard work and productivity. Bees also symbolize abundance. Seeing a bee reminds you to stay focused on your goals and keep working hard.

    It's a semi-old drawing I did as a means of expression, when I was feeling down on myself. This was the only image small enough for me to use lol.

    I wanted rainbow hair, or mermaid hair, when I was younger but never allowed as "employers won't want you with hair like that". Now it's commonplace and I'm too old lol, so my avatar has it instead.

    Plus, being rainbow, it shows I'm supportive of LGBTQ

    Haha, yeah. No visible tattoos, piercings, facial hair, colored hair... ten years ago that was still verboten in my world. Not anymore. And good riddance! The last thing you need to worry about in an employee is the color of their hair!

    Oh, definitely. Now it's entirely normal for colourful hair. Times have changed, thankfully.

    I'm just waiting for them to make smoking crack legal. Spice up the streets a bit.
