It's just that theyll grow on anything solid and they have flotation bladders to keep them upright, like a lot of seaweed, so when they get big enough they can float away with whatever they're growing on, like small rocks or broken coral. But they got called oyster thiefs because you notice this phenomenon most if your livelihood depends on farming creatures that are also roughly similar to small rocks.

latest comic idea i came up with while talking to @missiletoe: ratatouille but instead of a rat who can cook it is a frog who writes the most amazing yaoi. it is titled "frogjoshi." everyone says, "how can a frog write yaoi? what does a frog know about gay love?" and yet, she writes the most beautiful BL stories of all time. a world-renowned yaoi critic reads her novel, and is moved to tears having been reminded of the first yaoi she ever read, long ago, before she even knew what yaoi was. she demands to meet the author. they bring out the frog. roll credits

guys it’s real now

A little frog wearing giant glasses sits on a lilypad, reading a book and giggling to herself. Her thought bubble shows Naruto and Sasuke open mouth kissing. A large frog looms behind her from the water, looking at her suspisciously. The big frog snatches the little fujoshi frog’s book out of her hand. Big frog: [what are you giggling to yourself about!?] Fujoshi frog (Frogjoshi, if you will): [eek!]ALT
Big frog, angrily pointing a webbed finger at Frogjoshi: [this is ridiculous! What does a frog know about gay love? Go catch flies with your siblings, as any normal frog should!] Frogjoshi sits on a rock with three other frogs, snatching flies from the air with their tongues. Frogjoshi misses her fly, and sheds a tear. Frogjoshi, thinking to herself: [How I wish I could write yaoi instead…]ALT
Frogjoshi hops away into the night, a bindle slung over her shoulder. Frogjoshi, to herself: [No one understands me… I must run away!] Frogjoshi sits before a desk, pen in hand, set to an open book. Frogjoshi: [no one would read yaoi by a frog… I’ll give myself a pen name] Narrator: [The little frog’s yaoi books skyrocket in unprecedented success. It’s a BL phenomenon!] Frogjoshi writes at her desk. Beside her, an arrow rises, marked with yaoi books with various cliche covers.ALT
A woman who looks remarkably like Ratatouille’s Anton Ego holds an incredilous hand to her chest. She is labelled “renowned yaoi critic, Anton Uke.] Anton Uke: [who’s this rookie yaoi writer “A. Human”? I’ve never heard of them! Who do they think they are? I’ll knock them down a peg or two!] Anton Uke sits at a fancy dinner table. Anton Uke: [Waiter! Bring me the best work of the renowned yaoi author A. Human!] Waiter: [Of course, madame.] The waiter gracefully presents a cloche that contains a book.ALT
Anton Uke: [Let’s see if this A. Human is all they’re hyped up to be—] As Anton Uke reads, she is flooded with a sense of nostalgia, represented by a vision of her watching the homoerotic tension between Star Trek’s Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock on her old box TV as a little girl. A tear falls from Anton Uke’s eye.ALT
Anton Uke, still teary-eyed: [Bring me the author of this yaoi immediately!] The waiter, bowing: [Of course, Madame.] The waiter returns, presenting little Frogjoshi in his cupped hands. Waiter: [Madame, here is the author known as A. Human…] Frogjoshi peers up at Anton Uke through her glasses. Anton Uke warmly shakes Frogjoshi’s hand. Anton Uke: [To think a humble frog could have moved me so! Today you have proved that anyone can cook (yaoi)!]ALT

i wonder if it’s time for a cultural reappraisal of rob liefeld’s art. maybe we were all just too quick to judge a guy for daring to have a unique stylized take that focused on exaggeration and action. *actually looks at some of his art again* jesus CHRIST never mind

But let’s play out the thought experiment! What CAN we learn from Rob Liefeld’s art?

  1. You can do whatever you want forever
  2. At the end of the day, art is about vibes
  3. If you lean into Your Own Particular Brand of Bullshit with enough dedication, you CAN wring a career out of it
  4. Don’t ever fucking apologize for your art. Look at me. Look in my eyeballs. Don’t fucking apologize for your art ever. There are people like Rob Liefeld who are not apologizing for putting swords on titties. Why would YOU have to apologize for anything?
  5. Highlights and shadows are THE secret key to making your art look even a little bit interesting and dimensional and juicy to the eyeball. This works even if your shapes are dogshit.
  6. Highlights and shadows don’t have to go in logical places :)))) You can literally just throw them wherever. Follow ur heart.
  7. You don’t, apparently, have to bother learning anything about anatomy if you don’t feel like it
  8. Impostor syndrome is just trying to make you apologize for your art. Never apologize for your art. Stab impostor syndrome with your titty swords.
  9. It’s normal and fine to be horny when you draw.
  10. Forget about “Perfect is the enemy of good.” Perfect is the enemy of DONE.
  11. Literally do whatever you want forever.

Valuable and important lessons, we must admit! Thanks, Rob Liefeld!

To be fair that’s not actual Rob Liefeld art, it’s a parody. To be doubly fair, no one can be blamed for struggling to tell.
