When schools offer free meals for everyone, local families reduce grocery spending. Large chains respond by dropping prices, amplifying benefits to the broader community.
every day I get on here and see some post going “do not make an account on ZYLPPHONE, the hot new social media! it turns out making an account gives the creators (who are nazis) instant access to your bank account and also causes your pets to explode!” and this is all very baffling to me because I cannot believe anyone is actually fucking around with new social media platforms that shit sounds exhausting. if tumblr ever gives up and goes all the way under I will simply turn into a crab and go back to the sea you will not be finding my on zylophone
I’ve been thinking about it for a while now, but I realized I really want to do some big project for The Secret Saturdays, so expect to see some things related to that eventually. But for now I’ll work on other things as I build up to it, including how the Saturdays may look in this project. It’ll take place a year after the series final, making Zak 14-years-old. So I adjusted the characters so, along with giving my own makeover for my own style. I also put them in similar poses in their main poster, including remaking the background for it, so I hope you enjoy! 🧡
Zak I really wanted to update since my drawing I made with him, Rex and Ben, knowing I could do much better with his design. Based on my previous drawing of him, I’ve always been fond of Zak having wild, thick hair, the kind that tiny cryptids would love to nest in. I also know that most people expect him to grow up to look more similar to his dad, big and bulky, but I’ve always been fond of having him stay short, with a slim, almost serpent-like build. Sharp, quick and almost feminine in a sense. Ironic given both his parents are really tall and built to break stone itself. He also still has dragon features like my previous design, like the dragon eyes, scales across his body and fangs/claws.
Doc and Drew I could mostly the same, since they wouldn’t really change in a year beyond some slight changes to their uniforms. I kept the jumpsuits since I just vibe with them. I did try and make Drew look a little older, to give off more mum vibes, and cut her hair a little shorter since she strikes me as the kind of woman who cuts it every so often when it gets annoyingly long. Doc I adjusted the scar to go across the rest of his head, almost looking like a lightning bolt. I also gave them, and the other Saturday members, the same symbol Zak had on his shirt, to really help connect them as a family.
Zon I gave more patterns, Fisk some more fluff and Komodo more slick design, showcasing how different each of them are. They each get a band of sorts that hold the family symbol, letting people know who they’re family with. Though I imagine it took some time to convince Komodo to wear his one, and not just eat it.
