Interesting, and where is the creepy?

I see art, but eh, everyone sees different things as creepy.

Considering that the bird used to be alive at one point, before being calcified by the lake, it's at least a bit morbid.

The lake in colour is just trippy though. The bacteria in the algae within the lake is what turns the lake red. It also contributes to the flamingo's pink plumage when ingested.
Calcified while it was still alive.

Actually, the beast probably died before they died. The water is fairly basic, and quite deadly. Sucks the water straight out of your body.

from ebbor's post we can deduct:

  • the beast died, but it was part of a thanatos gambit which caused their(whose?) deaths
  • the water is basic (ph?)
    • the water contains less than 100% water, rapidly draining your cells of water via osmosis (this kills you, see point 1)

    also included:

    • ebbor can ninja my deductions before i get to making them
    • those lists are wonky as hell

I'm considering whether to sig this or not, right now.

Also, nobody pointed out:

The water (...) sucks the water straight out of your body.

Another interesting note, basic stuff tends to cause saponification of the skin. In other words, it turns skin fats into soap.

The dehydration is not because of osmosis btw. The bases react with water and break it apart. This particular substance in the water can decompose lipids and proteins through hydrolysis.

The Soapskin Effect (feel free to use in your band name) is hardly surprising since, well, that's pretty much how soap is made in the first place. Soap is the product of hydrolysis in basic environment, or, in common parlance, dipping fats in bases.

Of course. It's a bit less amusing when it starts dissolving you.

So a bunch of friends/neighbours are having a party upstairs, and they want me to come, after countless times telling them that I won't come because I don't feel like going but just want to stay at home drawing they still keep pestering me.

Honestly people, a no is a no, the first time just as much as the fiftieth time, so please, leave me be for fucks sake, I'm having worthwhile ideas after a long time and I don't want to waste time with people of all things.

Don't you get it? Their thing has to be the most important thing, how can anyone else not think that their thing is important?

I see all these "Money doesn't buy happiness" posts on Facebook.
And all I can think of is the fact that being surrounded by piles of money and pointless shiny objects would make me the happiest person ever.
ffs I'm shaking in my seat thinking about how happy I would be if I were surrounded with cash.
I wouldn't even buy anything. I'd just set up a pile of gold bars in a throne shape and sit on it all day.
