"Pinky the Ninja Mosasaurus", made an image based on a character my three-year-old daughter came up with.

Originally she was holding the ninja sword with her flipper, but my daughter said "No that's not right" and explained that obviously the sword should be protruding from the ninja-mosasaurus' back. Also initially asked me to make her blue. Then had me change to red. Then purple. But now, finally, the image is perfect.

Following the whims of a three-year-old's OC design has been fun!

@benis_redux Because my daughter insisted that that was the correct orientation for the blade. And if you're gonna make an image based on a three-year-old's designs you might as well commit even if the design makes no sense. xD

Edit: Then again, isn't a ninjato designed as a piercing weapon anyways? (I'm not sure of that 'cause I know more about Middle East swords rather than weeb swords) So it might not matter which direction it is facing, since it would be used (I guess) by ramming into the target like some kind of horn.

Illustrating every legendary creature in Wisconsin folklore: The Swamp Augur and ... the other Swamp Augur.

There are two creatures that go by the name "Swamp Augur" in Wisconsin lore, one being a type of fish, and the other a bird.

The Swamp Augur Bird is rather straightforward: A ducklike bird with a corkscrew bill which it uses to dig into the swampy earth looking for food.

The Swamp Augur Fish is a fish with a corkscrew horn which likes to drill through the bottom of boats. If this happened while you were in the boat, you were supposed to sprinkle cayenne pepper down the hole and onto the fish's snout.

This caused the Swamp Augur to violently sneeze. And the Swamp Augur, as something of a freak, actually enjoyed this. And so it would plug the hole with its nose so that you could sprinkle more cayenne pepper on it. As long as you kept indulging in this fish's weird pleasure, it would keep the hole in your boat plugged with its snout long enough for you to get to shore.
