naughty wosa:
A picture taken by
toonish:
This image was commissioned for me by
thinky:
I found this cute little owl on a google image search. I use it for my thoughtful and pondery posts. I like that it's a cute owl because it reminds me not to take myself too seriously.
prickly:
Another google image search. This one I use when I'm feeling prickly, or when the post is about something that makes me feel prickly or otherwise displeased.
reader:
Yes, yet another google image search. I use this image when I'm writing about books or movies (or, theoretically, other media wherein I'm the viewer.)
menorah dance:
How 'bout we just assume all the rest came from a google image search unless I say otherwise? I call this one menorah dance because, well, it's a menorah and people dancing. It's also a rainbow, but I haven't used it for posts about queerstuff yet, so I haven't particularly brought that out. I use it when I'm talking about myself and Judaism, or about dancing. In theory, sometime in the future, I may use it to talk about sexual identity politics, too.
oroboros:
Oroboros is the mythical snake biting its own tail, representing the cosmological idea of the sea encircling the world. I like it because circles are my symbol, and because it's a really cute oroboros. I use this for other religiony posts, or for ones where I'm feeling linked to the world somehow, especially with regard to my community.
baitcon:
peek:
This is a burrowing owl. I've been accused of going into "owl mode" and watching the world from behind that mask from time to time. Kinda like this owl hiding and watching. I use this image when I'm feeling owlish or when I'm feeling mischievous.
cosmic:
I like this one for my wild flights of fancy and strange ponderings.
pounce:
Pouncing kitten. So cute! Uses should be obvious :)
phoenix:
Since I'm in a phase of reinvention, I thought a phoenix would be a good symbol for posts relating to the ways in which I'm recreating/discovering myself.
content:
Look at the face on that kitten. Can you imagine anything more perfectly content? I can't either. I use this image for those posts when everything feels just right.
raven's wing:
This image and the next one came from this set of images posted by
circular fold:
I don't know what I'll use this one for, either, but I'm using it for this post anyway.
