Just like me fr

hc for snufkin cause I think it's funny 🌿🍂 Snufkin doesn't swear around his friends (especially Moomintroll). But when alone during the winter, he has a bit of a sailor's mouth.

I thought of other media I saw as a kid that I think would fit the hypothetical inkpunk asthetic that I forgot to mention:

Been on an Epic Mickey kick, and might've stumbled upon a new asthetic. (to my knowledge, I haven't found anything similar)

I call it: Inkpunk

Dude I hope it does catch on fr

This part right here fucks me up about Scourge's character. It's easy to remember it as just a "haha edgy emo" quote but what many fail to realize is that in the panels just before this, he straight up murdered a guy.

This cat is still so young, and he took his first life. Scourge has to be extremely young still here, at most maybe a young teen at this point due to how fast cats age; he has to be around apprentice age.

This moment can be interpreted as a total twist on how apprentices approach battle; they do so with pride and eagerness, what teenager wishes to go to war whenever they can.

The first quote quite is him pointing out that what he did was cold-hearted; but because he's so young he lets this cold-heartedness consume him. But even then, he doesn't buckle to becoming like other clan leaders.

The rogue he killed wasn't just there on "his territory" doing nothing, the rogue and his group were an active threat to the community. A far cry from how the clans treat outsiders in their territory. Scourge had a reason to defend himself on account of being threatened

And the fact that all of this, all of these ruminating thoughts, grudges, emotions, are all described in such a way by a child, is what makes his upbringing so heartbreaking. Dude is just a kid

My mom: "so who's the hippo?"

Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide

Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:

"I just want an identical experience to DL"

Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)

"I want a good audio-based app"

Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)

"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"

Pimsleur (Literally so many languages)

Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)

*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.

"I have a pretty neat library card"

Mango (Languages: So many and the endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)

Transparent Language: (Languages: THE MOST! Also the one that has the widest variety of African languages! Perhaps the most diverse in ESL and learning a foreign language not in English)

"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"

AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)

"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"

AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone

"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"

lingory

"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"

ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)

"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"

Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)

Shout out to my grandma for being a non binary ally without realizing it:

I got this hand puppet from online while I was visiting and she asked me whether it was a boy or a girl. I just shrugged saying I didn't know, but I knew damn well they were neither. She suggested the name Charlie since it would fit either. (Or neither, in my case.) I think Charlie's a very nice name.

Love you Grandma♡
