edited a bunch of my OCs into various stock images that were used in a (relatively) recently released game, mostly for lighting practice (or attempts at)

The character of Yoshisaur K. Fireball stands in the middle of a park illuminated by street lamps at night. The stock image comes from the background of Soccer/Football Dreams in Rhythm Heaven/Paradise Groove's Remix 16.

The character of Amber Radford stands in front of a rainy city scene next to a man with an umbrella. The stock image comes from the background of Brolly Good Show in Rhythm Heaven/Paradise Groove's Remix 16.

The character of Liza Wallaboom stands in the middle of a wheat field (or similar) at sunset. The stock image comes from the background of Flutter Speed in Rhythm Heaven/Paradise Groove's Remix 16.

The character of Missi kneels in the middle of a foggy car park at night. The stock image comes from the background of Alien Alphabet in Rhythm Heaven/Paradise Groove's Remix 16.

if you can understand this spreadsheet of numbers without context, congrats, you're on the same wavelength as me (note: not a good thing)

Rows and columns of various numbers are laid out in a spreadsheet. The first column displays numbers in three-digit format and entirely in bold. The rest of the columns display numbers in four-digit format and in normal text. Notably, the second column seems to mirror the first column, just in four-digit format.

how can google pride itself on its search engine when it couldn’t even produce good results for my highly specific and totally not unreasonable search request

A Google search for “nes game where you drive around small boxes that get larger when you enter them”.

Steamed Hams but it's a hastily-referenced anniversary drawing

Superintendent Chalmers greets Principal Skinner at Skinner's house for lunch, mimicking the opening shot of the original Steamed Hams skit from The Simpsons. There is an aurora borealis localised in the sky above Chalmers. Chalmers says "Seymour!!! Have we really been doing this for 30 years now?!". Seymour responds with "Yuh- I-... y'know, uh... one thing I should... 'scuse me for one second.", and Chalmer complies with "...of course".

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

Bridget tries to hang with her old crowd... except they've moved on and she hasn't. Featuring @rhg1951.bsky.social's characters Bea and Jarrad!

A Mew wearing a blue star decoration and red T-shirt saying "Can I get a what-what" on it (Bridget) floats next to anthropomorphic, humanised versions of a Celebi (Bea) and a Jirachi (Jarrad). Bridget, with a smug grin, says to them "How do you do, fellow mythicals?". Unlike them, Bridget is not humanised, so she looks quite out of place.

Day 25 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Felicity. Thanks to everyone who followed along this year!

An Aurorus wearing a red Christmas jumper with a long Christmas tree on it stands next to a hovering golden 25. Her thoughts on Christmas: "If you'll excuse me for being somewhat emotional... this time of year is a key point where people are reminded of who they care for, and who cares for them. Even in these dark days, having someone offer a light can make all the difference. In essence, Christmas is the culmination of all that is good about the world."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 24/12/2025

Day 24 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Yoshisaur.

A black Yoshi wearing a red Christmas jumper, blue jeans and white shoes stands next to a golden 24. His thoughts on Christmas: "Since Christmas comes at the very end of the year, I like to use it as kind of a means of gauging what I like to call my 'life progress'. Y'know, just kinda looking back at how far I've gotten. Part of me's surprised that I've made it this far. But then I see my family and how happy they are, and really, that's all that matters."

Day 23 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Elaine.

A Ponyta wearing a reindeer headband, a pink scarf, and blue jeans with a brown belt dashes worriedly past a golden 23. Her thoughts on Christmas: "It's a little... hectic, I guess... especially when, y'know, things get down to the wire, like they have now... I mean, two days left... I, uh, don't know how some people balance it all... I'm just worried about getting the wrong gift for someone. They say it's the thought that counts, but... what if my thought is the wrong one?!"

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 22/12/2025

Day 22 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Kiara.

A light-blue Yoshi/Amaura hybrid wearing a red Christmas jumper, dark-greyish/blue trousers and yellow shoes, stands behind a translucent 22 made of ice (which distorts the portions of her visible through the number). Her thoughts on Christmas: "Being born in winter and having a winter-adjacent power makes this time of year pretty significant to me, I gotta say. And I'm glad Christmas exists, because it also allows for me to associate the season with reminding me just how important my family and friends are to me. So... I owe Christmas a ton."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 21/12/2025

Day 21 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Gulligan.

A seagull wearing a Christmas hat and with a string of Christmas lights wrapped around his left leg (which he doesn't seem to notice) flies past a golden 21 with a happy expression. His thoughts on Christmas: "I'm still not sure I even know what a Christmas is! ...I mean, Liza told me it's not something edible - and then she told me it's not even a physical thing?! How am I supposed to peck at it? How the heck did humans invent something I can't even see? I have so many questions that no one seems to have the answer to!"

021

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 20/12/2025

Day 20 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Sophie.

A white Yoshi wearing a purple Christmas jumper with a yellow star on it, blue jeans and light blue shoes stands next to a golden 20. Her thoughts on Christmas: "It's very... peaceful. More people are in a jovial mood, so it means they're usually more positive even if they require my services. I get a lot of people expressing how grateful they are for my help around this time of year, too - and I'm grateful they chose to seek me out! It reminds me how much I love this community."

032

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 19/12/2025

Day 19 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Mack.

A kangaroo wearing a dark red vest peers out from behind a golden 19 looking slightly worried. His thoughts on Christmas: "Call me a perennial worrier if you want, but I don't think we should really be celebrating something human-made. We're pretty low on the food chain, and drawing attention to ourselves is the last thing we need. Look - I care about Liza and the others a lot, it's just... I don't think they realise what they're risking."

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 18/12/2025

Day 18 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Dr. Field.

Dr. Field, a human wearing a black business suit with nametag and a blue tie, dark brownish trousers and black shoes, waves next to a golden 18. Her thoughts on Christmas: "Oh, my family and I - we don't celebrate Christmas. We did celebrate Diwali a couple of months ago, though. Still got some mithai left over from that if you'd like! …It does feel like I'm being excluded at work because of my heritage, I will admit. Nothing against Christmas - really - just ignorant people."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 17/12/2025

Day 17 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Moira.

A gold Yoshi wearing a gold Christmas jumper, dark brownish-red trousers and blue shoes stands by a hand-crafted golden 17 that she's dumped golden paint all over (and subsequently she has gold paint smears over herself). Her thoughts on Christmas: "I love it! It's the best time of the year, 'cause I get to put my creative energy in full force! It's so cool getting to make all this stuff for people, and - and it's even better seeing their reactions when they unwrap 'em! Not to mention it's my sis's birthday on the 22nd. She's so cool! Oh, this time of year's the absolute best!"

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 16/12/2025

Day 16 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Petey.

A Kadabra wearing a red Christmas jumper and blue jeans floats horizontally in midair with psychic levitation, fast asleep, with his spoon floating next to him. His thoughts on Christmas: "It's a lot of work for something that we only end up celebrating for like... a day or two, realistically. If it was just me by myself, I probably wouldn't bother setting up the tree and all that jazz... it's much easier to let the more experienced team members handle it. They'd probably do a better job than me anyway..."

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 15/12/2025

Day 15 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Dr. South.

A man with greying hair, wearing sunglasses, and a black business outfit with a dark red tie (and nametag), glares at the viewer, blocking out the "1" on a golden "15". His thoughts on Christmas: "Classified. Please leave the premises before I call security." When prompted about why he won't let Amber enjoy Christmas, his response is, "Wha- how do you know about Amber?! Security! Get in here and take this threat to the interrogation room NOW!"

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 14/12/2025

Day 14 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Danny.

Danny, a bipedal Eevee wearing a red coat and pale brown trousers, looks up wistfully while standing near a golden "14". His thoughts on Christmas: "...mine? Um, okay, uh... well, it's never been a major event in my life so far... but I suppose now I'm travelling with Missi and the others, I can get a fresh outlook on certain aspects of life I didn't have the chance to before. And perhaps... maybe this time of year won't be as melancholy. My perspective is all up to me, after all."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 13/12/2025

Day 13 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Liza.

Liza, a kangaroo wearing a red Christmas hat... over her regular fedora... and a red Christmas jumper with a wavy yellow stripe pattern excitedly gets close to the viewer with awe on her face, with a golden 13 in the background. Her thoughts on Christmas: "All I can say is... crikey! How come we animal folk didn't have this? I absolutely love this holiday and everything about it! Gosh, humans really are magical creatures, aren't they? It really livens up an otherwise uneventful summer, if y'ask me! Okay, now who's up for some pavlova?"

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

Day 12 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Imogen.

Imogen, a pink Yoshi wearing a red Christmas jumper with a snowman on it, dark purplish trousers and blue shoes, clambers onto a golden 12. Her thoughts on Christmas: "Okay, so you know that song 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Ever Day' Well, that's entirely within my power range. But... those who bear the Tempo name have a moral duty to not use our gift irresponsibly. Of course, given we're technically illegal... there's also the duty of not using it at ALL."

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

Day 11 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Amber.

Amber, a purple humanoid cat wearing a dark blue coat over a blue jumpsuit with yellow trim, sadly looks back at a golden 11. Her thoughts on Christmas: "...I'm not allowed to have any. And even if I was, no one's told me anything about what it is or how it works. I know it's got something to do with socialisation, because a few of my co-workers have tried inviting me to Christmas parties... but I'm sure Dr. South would consider that a 'perimeter breach'..."

032

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

Day 10 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Bathany.

Bathany, a fruit bat wearing a green and red-striped Christmas hat and a Christmassy red variation of her usual shirt, hovers next to a golden 10. Her thoughts on Christmas: "Definitely seems to be one of the better things humans have come up with. I will say though... as a nocturnal sheila, I haven't seen one peep of this 'Santa' fella in my life. I get he knows when you're sleeping and when you're awake, but apparently he doesn't do day shifts. Bit on the dodgy side if you ask me..."

042

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

Day 9 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Lucy.

Lucy, a yellow Yoshi wearing a green Christmas jumper and navy blue jeans, pulls on a rope wrapped around a golden 9 that's being dragged through the ground (indicating its heavy weight). Her thoughts on Christmas: "Growing up, we didn't have Christmas - this time of year just meant the beginning of the Blue Watermelon crop season. But seeing how much joy it's brought to the next generation of Yoshi children definitely makes me hope it remains a mainstay. Plus, I'm always down for some eggnog if there's any left over!"

032

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 08/12/2025

Day 8 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Missi.

Missi, a Wartortle wearing a brown coat, a magenta scarf, and blue trousers, leans against an 8 looking despondent. Her thoughts on Christmas: "Okay, I know this is going to make me sound like a massive killjoy, but... way too much hassle for me, just personally speaking. My life's gotten to the point where I can't afford to let my guard down for an instant. That said... it's a source of comfort for others, and I'd never forgive myself if I took it away from them."

032

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 07/12/2025

Day 7 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Vicks.

Vicks, a "tropical fox" (green-coloured fox) with a pink flower behind her ear, looks at the camera holding a bauble while standing next to a golden 7. Her thoughts on Christmas: "Chri- ohhhh, right. That's one of those human things Liza told me about, right? Well, as a total outsider to the concept, uh... I don't really have much to say, to be honest. Admittedly, I find some of the customs a little weird, but hey, I'm not one to judge. And without it, I wouldn't have discovered the taste of peppermint!"

032

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 06/12/2025

Day 6 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Ryleigh.

Ryleigh, a purple Yoshi wearing a green beret, a blue Christmas jumper with a snowflake on it, dark brownish-red trousers and turquoise shoes, looks at a 6 admiring its composition work (as though he sculpted it himself). His thoughts on Christmas: "Do you know how many commissions I get around the festive season? Art is highly valued by the Yoshi community, and I'm all too happy to oblige. After all, it makes Christmas the most profitable part of the year! Helps that I'm the quickest on the 'draw' around these parts. Heh. Dumb little joke."

021

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 05/12/2025

Day 5 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring LAO.

LAO, a Dodrio wearing cream cargo shorts and a differently coloured Santa hat on each head (red on Lars the left head, blue on Anthony the middle head, and green on Orson the right head) leans his heads around a golden 5. Each head gives their thoughts on Christmas: from Lars, "Personally I can't see the long-term gains in what people do this time of year, but... they seem happy."; from Anthony, "It just warms my heart seeing everyone celebrating together. Makes me wish we had that kind of unity..."; and from Orson, "Gotta love those funky light shows!" (imitates electricity noises)

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Day 4 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Django.

Django, an orange Yoshi with reddish-brown hair, wearing a green Christmas jumper with a snowman on it, blue jeans, and red boots, levitates a yellow 4 with his powers. His thoughts on Christmas: "Christmas is one of those times where I really wish the power I have wasn't illegal... I mean, decorating would be so much easier if I could just levitate all the lights and stuff up. Seriously, I do more good than harm with it! Unfortunately, as far as I know, Santa can't bring about legislative changes..."

021

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

Day 3 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Drew.

Drew, a red-haired human wearing a green shirt (with the instruction "wear a hat that's foil-lined" accompanied by a picture of a tinfoil hat) and sunglasses leans against a golden 3 while grinning and making a finger-gun pose. His thoughts on Christmas: "Christmas is just another of the government's many psyops, to get people to buy more products made by big companies that want to brainwash your mind! I'm too well-versed in this stuff to fall for that. It's the same with the cold weather. That's why I never wear a coat! So what if so-called 'experts' say it's 37 degrees outside?!"

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 02/12/2025

Day 2 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Bridget.

Bridget, a Mew (wearing a red Christmas jumper with the words "Dude, where's my worship?" on it and with mistletoe wrapped around a ribbon attached to her tail) floats past a golden 2. Her thoughts on Christmas: "I gotta say, mortals really know how to put on a light show. Still... I can't help but wonder why they're all going around worshipping this weird 'Santa' guy when I'm literally right here! I mean, c'mon! I could do everything he does ten times as fast, and better! Psh. Mortals don't know what they're missing..."

022

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 01/12/2025

Day 1 of my OC Advent Calendar, starring Bill B.

Bill B., a dark blue bilby (wearing a red Christmas jumper with a tree on it) stands next to a golden "1" looking at it disgruntledly. His thoughts on Christmas: "I'd be fine with it if the celebrations were limited to like... a couple of days. A week, tops. But I can't put up with having to hear Liza 'serenading' us with Mariah Carey for nearly two whole months - I mean, the heat's bad enough as it is. Also, she keeps calling me a 'Scrooge' and I don't know what that is."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 21/09/2025

"The proposed film has been delayed indefinitely due to a rather messy and public legal battle with the estate of Jackie Chan."

A fake movie poster based on the bootleg NES game "Barve Boy: Kung Fu Pokéchu", a Pokémon-themed bootleg hack of Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu. The poster features the main character (a muscular, humanoid Pikachu), his girlfriend (also a humanoid Pikachu) and a villainous, pale-green Mewtwo, represented only by its head. The surrounding landscape takes elements from several graphics from the game's first level. At the top is a tagline - "the barvest of them all" - and at the bottom is the title of the "movie", alongside a release notice of "coming to theatres never".

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 28/05/2025

The Pokémonisation Ray was a success! Reception... is somewhat mixed.

Several OCs are lined in a row, all having been transformed into Pokémon. From left to right: Yoshisaur as a Dragonite, complaining about his newfound weight; Lucy also as a Dragonite, liking the fact she now has wings; Kiara as an Amaura, who remarks that she doesn't feel much different (given she was already half-Amaura to begin with); Moira as a Charmander, who lampshades Kiara's statement; Amber as a Liepard; Liza as a Kangaskhan; and finally, Missi, who is a Wartortle because she already was one to begin with. She calls a bunch of people out of frame "imbecilic ignorami".

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 24/05/2025

Fun fact! In real life, kangaroos aren't usually allowed to travel by plane.

An anthropomorphic kangaroo asks an airport worker about seats that have "extra tail room". The worker calls security on the kangaroo, but the kangaroo is completely unfazed by this and thinks she's doing a service.

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 26/03/2025

A simple guide on how to differentiate a Yoshi... from THE Yoshi.

Text at the top reads "Learn the difference!". On the left hand side of the image, a green Yoshi stands happily. Text above him reads "Theodore Yoshisaur Munchakoopas. Innate ability: Extreme appetite, versatile tongue. One of the legendary, powerful “Star Children”. Assistant, friend, and bodyguard to the national superhero, Mario. Used to live on Yoshi’s Island before moving to the Mushroom Kingdom. No clothes except for shoes; allows for faster movement and for Mario to have easier grip. In a relationship with the celebrity model Catherine Birdetta “Birdo” Ostro. The Yoshi everyone knows and loves." On the right side, Yoshisaur stands scowling. Text above him reads "Yoshisaur... uh... something. Innate ability: Fire, by the looks of it. No interesting backstory that we know of. No connection to Mario at all. Probably still lives on Yoshi’s Island somewhere. Wears trousers, a belt, and some weird dusty thing on a string around its neck (weirdo). Also has hair??? What??? Probably in a normal, boring relationship with another Yoshi or something. Comparatively a total nobody."

Yoshisaur K. Fireball @yoshikfireball.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

Lucy's got her priorities straight ☘️

The Fireball-Earthquake family are depicted with an all-green skin colour for Saint Patrick's Day. Yoshisaur questions as to why they couldn't have just worn green clothes like everyone else, with Lucy saying they could've, but being coloured green is funnier.

Did you know? The video game series "Danganronpa" is actually an abbreviation for the series' full name: "Daniel Ganiel Ronald Father". When asked about this, series creator Kazutaka Kodaka had only this to say: "lmao"

Perhaps not the most logical of decisions

Ms. Cosmont announces to her class that the Mushroom Kingdom and the land of Concordia (from Mario & Luigi: Brothership) have collectively decided to rename the concept of "having an idea". Kiara, who is in her class, derides the change as a "dumb move" before asking what it's been renamed to, to which Ms. Cosmont reveals it's been renamed to "Luigi Logic", which she draws a figure of on her whiteboard.
