Hi KIRBY!!!!

He looks like such a good boy

I made a new profile pic for myself. It was only going to be a small doodle and it sorta just spiralled lol.

Probably will use it on this account.

The last time i drew a kirby profile pic, i tried to do hypernova kirby and it just wasnt all that great. Im much happier with this one though and it took a fraction of the time!

Kirby is so full of love and Magalor wears a sleeping cap ON TOP OF HIS HAT!!!!!

I feel like Kirby would get like, love zoomies

Like suddenly he’s filled up with so much affection for all his friends he has to go around to everyone in the vicinity and tell them

[allidoishuynh]

Their preschool graduation is them waddling across the stage all by themselves to prove that they're now waddle dees!!!!

I have a proposal:

Instead of calling baby waddle dees, well baby waddle dees, we should call them WOBBLE DEES!!

Because they're probably learning how to walk!! And wobble dee just sounds SOOO CUTE!:D

[allidoishuynh]

I'm literally weeping look at him

The way you draw kirby characters sparks joy

Thank you :)

Completely unrelated, did you know that Kirby wears a little suit in the Kirby Super Star Ultra sound player and it is my favorite outfit I have seen ever?

Just to add, "blood is thicker than water" with its more known and accepted definition is an older and more consistently used version of the saying than, "blood of the covenant is thicker than water of the womb."

In John Moore's Zeluco (1789), a character assures another in a letter that there is little danger in him forgetting his old friends "and far less my blood relations; for surely blood is thicker than water."

The phrase is also referenced in a collection of Scots Proverbs by Allen Ramsay (1737) and states the version "blood is thicker than water" as the complete form of the proverb.

"Blood of the covenant is thicker than water of the womb," is an interpretation that was first recorded in 1990 by author Albert Jack and rabbi Richard Pustelniac wherein they utilize a tried and true method to legitimize their interpretation by saying that it's the "original" meaning without citing any sources to support this claim.

ALL THIS TO SAY, sayings are just words. They're not universally correct and they change in meaning over years as the use of the saying changes and the morals of the time period adjust. "Blood is thicker than water" comes from a time when your family members were the only people you could generally rely upon to care about your well being and an overwhelming amount of time/effort spent was to try and improve or sustain the lifestyle of your current household (think who benefitted from all the effort of drawing water, cooking, choring, working a job, or making/washing clothes). In recent years this is less the case and a different interpretation of this saying is more valuable to modern relationships. That doesn't make the old meaning wrong, it doesn't make the new meaning the original, it just evolves.

"The customer is always right in terms of taste" was a very reasonable saying to develop in a time when individual sales are nontrivial income sources. But "the customer is always right," is far more appropriate in a world where capitalism overwhelming values repeat business and brand loyalty and where replacing a worker that won't let a customer run them over is as easy as reaching your hand out the front door and grabbing someone.

People saying, "the customer is always right" from a management perspective aren't "using the saying wrong." They're using a fundamentally different fucking saying that's adapted itself to an environment that cares more about how much money a billionaire can get from any individual customer than how much suffering it costs a worker to extract it.

I am, without question, reaching here. But could the definition of "steal" be stretched to say that Danny stole his soul back from the afterlife to become a halfa? Or maybe stole the ectoplasm from the realms to do it?

I ask because I think a neat downside would be how Danny can lose his high king status (yes also by getting his face punched hard enough) by potentially having his most prized possession stolen and thus being "out-thiefed." Or maybe it can be a spectrum. Stealing his pencil is still stealing from the thief GOAT, but it's small and unimportant so you don't get much of a boost. Stealing his teddy bear that he sleeps with every night: important, in secure location, literally kept in arms reach for a third of all time, that'll turn a no name arcane type into a game-changing threat. Steal the soul that Danny took back from the infinite realms themselves? You get to become the new high king. Now everyone who's anyone, in a very literal sense, wants a piece of him.

"High King" is an interchangeable title, and it purely means "strongest infinite realms being at this particular point in time". It is also a test to determine new Ancients.

Whoever can defeat the previous High King gains the empty title, but more importantly they have their domain as an Ancient determined. The Infinite Realms, sapient and older than time and existence, monitors how the fight went down, and assigns a domain.

For Pariah Dark, who laid bloody siege to gain the title, it is Destruction.

For Danny?

It is, surprisingly, not Heroism. It's not Protection.

It's Thieves.

As far as the Infinite Realms are concerned, he started the battle by stealing supplies, and ended it stealing back Amity Park to the Living Realm.

Danny Phantom is the High King of the Infinite Realms, the Infant Ancient of Thieves.

This gives him a few perks none of the other High Kings had, namely the biggest and most important one; as the Ancient of Thieves, there are, quite literally, no sigils, cages, or traps that can detain him.

So evading the GIW is a breeze now, as is not getting caught by his parents.

The annoying part is constantly having to prove this to delusional cultists when he's summoned.

~~~~~~

John Constantine, who is well aware that the title of High King changed hands and is also aware that the newest Ancient is the Ancient of Thieves, is betting on being able to convince the strange Ancient to steal him.

Because Constantine is trapped in a room with walls that are literally closing in, it's filling with water, and any potential exit is enchanted by demons to prevent him from leaving.

He really, really pissed them off this time.

But, he thinks as the Ancient of Thieves appears before him, they forgot to set the enchantments to stop him from bringing someone in.

I get that being frozen for 100 years is a tough thing to go through but honestly Aang should have used it for comedy more

[allidoishuynh]

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

I miss when everyone on my dash listened to Welcome to Night Vale so there’s be a good chance that on any ole day someone would reblog a quote that would grab me by the throat and forcibly ascend me to a higher plane where I understood myself and the universe better and with more kindness but also a little spook

[allidoishuynh]

Man I love fielding highlights, they're so much more diverse than seeing great players hit dingers. Though the Evan Longoria one is fake/commercials. Still a really cool clip though

i know its the mets, but this is the coolest shit i’ve ever seen a human being do

Okay, tumblr is being dumb and not actually adding the link to my post? Not sure if this one will work but I’m gonna give it a try lol

Chapter 3 of Changeling in the Cradle is up!

There was a superstition held as gospel by anyone who even remotely worked with emergency services - vigilantes included - that full moons were the absolute worst.

They always - without fail - brought the weirdos out in force and cranked the unhinged vibes of the city up to eleven. Steph had seen it first hand over the past two years of her clerkship at Leslie’s clinic. She’d had an even more up close and personal view of the wild bullshit that broke out each month in the near decade she’d been working as a vigilante before and during that time.

Usually that level of crazy was just one night though.

This month Gotham had apparently decided it was bored of that reliable bit of fuckery and would like to cause problems on purpose now, thanks.
