Trojan Pony Bacteria · 4:48pm March 23rd

Well, this one has a funny backstory, and it's a recent picture I drew. I was feeling kind of depressed lately, what a surprise, half the time I'm depressed and half the time I'm sad, in between I live and socialize like here. Anyways, I was browsing "Temu" a shopping app, kind of like AliExpress or bootleg Amazon, haha. So I stumbled upon a personalized keychain, you put a picture in there and they make a keychain trinket out of it. I googled some Tripsy pictures and remembered that this exists, lovely Baekgup drew this picture. A perfect keychain trinket. I started editing, removing the white background and I sort of froze on the spot, thinking "Hmm, this seems like too much work, removing this white background, I bet I could draw Triscuit and it would be easier", so I drew this picture

And I was like "This looks nice, but it lacks something", so for the next few days I proceeded to draw an entire picture.
I am really proud how she turned out here, although I got tired of Trixie's old outfit, so I spiced it up with a little bit of eye-bleaching colors, haha. She is so bright, it's hard to look at her. Even her eyes are not strictly purple, but a little bit of this and that. Plus, if you look close enough, her left leg is green, a sort of pixelised or voxelised effect. Well, the idea was that Triscuit is like a computer virus or programm, kind of like Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck-it Ralph. I wanted to even add a little joke, there would be a small window with announcement "Trojan Horse Virus detected" and Trixie would say "That's a Trojan Pony Bacteria, actually", but I thought it wasn't that funny, so pancakes it is. Funny thing here is that Trixie noticed some pancakes and asks the user to take her there, well she goes to the picture, picks up a lasso cutting tool, you know the one that artists use, if you go to any drawing app, lasso is a must. The weird thing that Trixie does is cut the pancake into a star shape, haha. What a weirdo am I right? WRONG, you are a weirdo for not cutting the pancakes into stars, that's the most power and greatful thing you can do. SO DO. Anyways, Trixie here is complaining that the pancake image she just "ate" is an inferior JPEG. It's my personal hell, nothing with JPEGs, or JPGs as they say, it's just that when I stumble upon a good looking image, I zoom in to see all the details and I get bombarded with jpeg artifacts, it's dreadful, really. PNGs are my pals, though they weigh a lot, I still love them even if they are a bit overweight.

Okay, Easter Eggs or any small details that you might have missed.
1) Steam, it's pretty obvious, I decided not to draw a usual steam logo, and drew valve instead, pretty much the same thing right?
2) It's Trixie's PC instead of "My Computer", and it's a pipboy with vault girl instead of vault boy, I prefer it that way, she looks cuter.
3) Music player with little Courtney Barnett in there, she is singing Sunday Roast (Couldn't find on youtube, except Live versions, which are not the same)
4) it says "kick off" instead of "start", which I guess is nonexistent button since Windows 8
