Hiiiiiii :3 I was curious about how you did the local animal banners for your zoo? You don't have to anwser, but i was curious about it, cause they look really good (And my current solution is screens with the imagine so yeah ^^"") THANK YOU :D

Hi!! :3

Thank you sm!! I wish I could provide some sort of visual reference but I'll be away from my gaming PC for a while, so I'll try my best to summarize how I put these goobers in my parks! The in-game screens are actually I how I prefer to do it, they can just be a bit finicky sometimes!

I use two of the in-game square billboard screen pieces stacked on top of each other ("Screen Panel 1m x 1m" is about the perfect size for an average zoo banner) and make a version of the image that's evenly and horizontally split through the middle, placing both halves in the UserMedia folder to put on the screens.

I usually split them in Photoshop or Clip Studio Paint, but there are plenty of other ways to do so. I'm usually wary of those free tool websites but I've found this one to be okay.

Hopefully that all makes sense, good luck with your zoos! :>

Writing Tips

Punctuating Dialogue

✧

➸ “This is a sentence.”

➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.

➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”

➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”

➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”

➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”

➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.

“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.

“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”

➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”

➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”

However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!

➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.

If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)

➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“

“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.

➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.

➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”

➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.

“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”

➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.

“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”

I love that Ghost has shifted all the attention to the aesthetics of clothing. 

In a world where pop stars focus almost entirely on nudity, ignoring the importance of clothing and how it plays a fundamental role in the game of desire, Ghost, both Papas and Ghouls, have been perfect in not underestimating the value of clothing, but rather in bringing it back to the spotlight.

The history of fashion is rich with examples of how clothing has been a source of literary inspiration, an object of desire and fetish, and a protagonist in cultural and aesthetic changes.

Leather gloves, intricate vestments, cravats, boots... they may seem like simple accessories, but they are, in fact, tools of seduction and personality manifestation.

With them, I feel as though we are returning to the European aesthetics of the 19th century, to the cult of beauty and elegance, as if having just stepped out of Leopardi's 'Dialogue Between Fashion and Death.'

I love the vanitas, the drama, the sophistication, the opulence of it all.

Thoughts on ''The Trunk''

I would usually make a full on review and kind of an analysis about it, but this drama is rather dense and I need to vent. If you have not seen this show, leave the post and come back once you have finished.

This year gave two antagonists that I absolutely despised, Lady Maeda, from Gyeongseong Creature, and Lee Seoyeon, from The Trunk.

Now, I can empathize with some of Seoyeon's fury and pain; specially being a woman. Although I'm not Korean, so some of the nuances of their society and the role of women may fly over my head. I do not share her specific sentiments, however, I can relate to the fear of the change that pregnancy and motherhood bring with them. As I have gotten older I've come to realize how big the responsibility of parenthood is and how you can never shake it off; It doesn't matter what happens to your children you will always be their parent, there is no other way around it.

Seoyeon is a woman that clearly doesn't want children. She thinks of them as a hindrance and mark to her individuality and not an added role to welcome. She is also very controlling; And coming from a family that is clearly well of, she has gotten used to being at the top of the pecking order. She is the one that chooses what, when, who and how, so for her to not be adored and praised/admired for how good/perfect she is and to be relegated to second fiddle is not admisible. She can't stand the fact that she might be just someone's mom; She says it herself in one of her last conversations to Jeongwon.

In her relationship with Jeongwon, there is a clear power imbalance. Something that we could see from the beginning of the show but was solidified on those flashbacks of them at university. It is very clear that she has some narcissistic traits or is a full blown one and in him has found the person that will always adore her, worship her because he is so broken and doesn't know any better.

So when this man, that she pretty much treated like a puppet, has the nerve to do something of his own volition and based on what he believes it's right and does not choose her, she takes it a a blow to her ego. Mind you, Jeongwon as put in a pretty difficult position. To choose between your partners life or the baby's is pretty unfair, and honestly is a pretty antiquated trope, most doctors if not all of them will try to save both patients unless is completely imposible to resuscitate the mother.

The fact that he didn't choose her is appalling to Seoyeon. And so she starts to crank up the heat. He was already hooked on drugs, but let's make them stronger and a lot harder for him to get himself off of them. Let's play mind games and torture him emotionally because how dare he choose someone else that is not me. How could he choose to save this innocent life over me. Let's make him go through a whole fake marriage with someone that is "nobody" so that he realizes that I'm the best he has got. Let's use his deepest and most hurtful secret and put surveillance on his house, on the same specific way his father did for his mom. The level of cruelty this woman inflicted on this man was otherworldly. She is so hollow and broken inside that the only way she can feel better about herself is to make him be her doormat, so that by comparison she can "be better".

So, I hated her... with every ounce of my being.

I do think that the actress did a phenomenal job bringing this character to life, kudos to her. Every single performance in this drama was great.

Anyways, this is my little not so little rant. Again, don't know if I'll do a proper review-ish, like the ones I tend to do, cause for a drama so short there sure is a lot to unpack with this piece.
