Reviews

Mr. Levan Dvalishvili Chief (Software Architect) at solarspace.io said Hands down the most developer friendly package that I have worked with.. A+++++

platform we tried out Metronic. I can not overestimate the impact Metronic has had. Its accelerated development 3x and reduced QA issues by 50%. If you add up the reduced need for design time/resources, the increase in dev speed and the reduction in QA, it’s probably saved us $100,000 on this project alone, and I plan to use it for all platforms moving forward. The flexibility of the design has also allowed us to put out a better looking & working platform and reduced my headaches by 90%. Thank you KeenThemes! Jonathan Bartlett, Metronic Customer

Metronic is an incredible template. Even with purchasing an extended license, the cost savings is immeasurable. The code & CSS is well organized and while it is feature rich, it is not bloated. It was quickly integrated into our relatively complex product and had ready-made UX for our many use cases. Where we needed to extend functionality, this system made it incredibly easy. A tremendous job by the Metronic team.  Fatica, Metronic Customer

In conclusion, Metronic Html Template is an excellent choice for developers and businesses alike.

MATURE UNDER CUT MDNI

The nest is so warm. It feels safe as the thunder rumbles seemingly nonstop. His arms are wrapped around you tightly and squeezing you close protectively as he hears your heart thud in your chest. "Are you scared of the storm, My Precious?"

      A soft nod is his only response, a whimper pressing past your lips as a particularly loud crack of thunder echoes in the cave. "Don't worry, Joongie will protect you." His hand softly rub your stomach and trail down to your bare thighs.

    When did you take your clothes off?

      His hands are so warm and calming as he caresses every inch of skin he can reach before one finally lands on your epicenter. He cups your heat warmly and moans into your ear as he grinds onto your hip, whispering obscenities about how well you'll take his cock one day soon.

     He kneads your plush flesh in his hand for a moment, seemingly basking in the feeling of your juices wetting his palm before he pulls away and crawls down your body, his eyes trained to you like the predator that he is- shining darkly as his scales flush a bright red that rivals his hair. "Will you let me?" He croons deeply as he comes face to face with your wetness.

    "Mmm please, Joongie," your soft moan wakes him with a start, eyes flicking black as he searches the den for any potential danger.

     "Precious? Are you quite alright?" He whispers as he curls closer to you, feeling your head and frowning deeply as he feels your heated skin.

   Is your fever back so soon? It's been three days since your first dosage and you've been fine. Why all of the sudden should you be s-

    "Nngh," another moan stops all of his movements, frozen like a statue as he catches a glimpse of your hips rolling subconsciously. He backs up and off of your body, forcing himself to ignore the small whimper that leaves you as he heat disappears.

    You've got his, and now your, favorite blanket balled up and pressed between your thighs, moving your hips lazily for any kind of friction. "Like that," you purr subconsciously, and that's all it takes for all of his blood to rush downwards, a raging hard on in his sleep shorts in a second flat as his eyes flick up to your blissfully unaware face.

    Your jaw is slightly agape, eyebrows furrowed together as you hump your hips upward clumsily.

     "Oh sweet Huntress," he curses under his breath, slapping a hand over his mouth to cover any noises you may have caught over the storm outside.

   He backs away further, pressing himself to the cool rock wall. He doesn't want you to wake up and think he was the cause of whatever clearly wet dream you're having. And, Gods, is it wet.

     His blackened eyes are trained on the small patch that you rub your core on over and over. You've soaked through the shorts that he made for you to sleep in and are smearing your eagerness on his blanket with continued soft moans trilling off of your tongue.

     He's just about to get up to relieve his hardness elsewhere for your own modesty, knowing full well you can't control this dream your having and knowing even more that if you ever ever knew he had jacked off beside you that he would never so much as get an innocent smile thrown his way.

   But then?

   "Oh, Joongie," it trails off your lips and causes a pang of arousal to hit his gut roughly, biting into his hand with his own sharp teeth as his tip leaks into his shorts.

    Is this his own dream. His mate having a wet dream about him is his wet dream? There's no way. No way.

    "Fuck harder, Hong," you slur and stammer in your sleep, and he has to free himself of his fabrics immediately. Gone is any of his modesty or care for yours. If you're having a wet dream about him, he can just say he had one about you. That's what he's making himself believe is happening even.

     The electric spark he feels when you roll and hike your knee up on his thigh assures him that it's real, however. That he, in fact, is not having the best dream of his life.

    But he chooses to ignore that as he slowly strokes his girth. You look so delicate and beautiful as you smoosh your head deeper into the nest that smells like your mate. He matches his strokes to the way your hips swirl and grind as deep into the balled up blanket as possible. Your body must still be processing his bite too fast. Your horniness is exactly what he was feeling since he bit you, and what he would expect of you in a few weeks if you had been taking his bite normally.

    But he isn't complaining, he's thanking the Huntress as one of your hands seeks out his body heat subconsciously and grips onto his thigh, digging your nails into his skin. "Mate," the word that rumbles off your trembling lips nearly has him cumming on the spot. Five days in, and he's never so much as heard you utter the word besides with disgust. But this time- oh this time. It's laced with honey and desperation and a passion he's never heard from you.

     "Mate," he whispers back as he fists his length roughly, biting his lip to hold back the growls he so badly wants to let out, afraid that he'll wake you before either of you have a chance to relieve the build up of intense hormones that come with the bite he left on your neck.

    He feels an immense amount of guilt for watching you in such a vulnerable state without your expressed permission, but he'll be damned if he lets the opportunity slip away. You'll never know, and he'll never tell. But that doesn't stop his from feeling a bit guilty. What does stop him- what washes away all doubt of his actions is when you lay flat on your stomach and reach your hand under yourself, into your shorts.

     The smell of your sweet, sweet aroma finally hits him full force and he paints his stomach white with his own pleasure, a quiet growl that he can't hold back ripping out of his clenched teeth.

     And even in his pleasure induced delirium, he doesn't dare miss the way that your body seizes up and the wet patch in your shorts grows tenfold before you slump to the warmth of the nest and nuzzle his pillow with a delicate whine.

     "Hongjoong," you murmur through you deep breaths, clearly spent from your unconscious release. He tucks himself back into his own shorts and wipes his stomach on a spare piece of fabric before curling up ontop of you and holding you close securely, ignoring the way that he's still hard. It will go away on its own.

     He's taken more than what you would give in your waking state and for now, he's content to just press his body onto yours and cage you in the nest that he made just for you.

-

     You wake with a newfound pep in your step, metaphorically of course: because Hongjoong refuses to get off of his place on your back for a few hours. He trills happily and holds you close tightly, clicking in the language you don't understand.

   Unbeknownst to you, he's confessing his sins with that sickly sweet tone and bright smile that has you holding back a smile of your own. He tells you exactly what happened with a smile on his face even though he feels like collapsing in on himself a tiny bit. Just to get it off of his chest.

    You fail to notice your dried up arousal until you get up and skip to the separate room to relieve your bladder, and then you're staring down at it dumbfounded. The splash of the water outside of the room lets you know he's gone for a bit.

      He told you, thankfully in the language you understand, that he had some matters to attend to with the tribe.

   So you waited for a few minutes to make sure he's truly gone off before you run out in one of your new outfits that he tailored for you in the past days, diving into the nest and shoving your soiled shorts to the bottom of the thick pile of fabrics.

    You also fail to notice that you had shoved it right next to the rag Hongjoong used to clean himself up, copying his exact shameful actions as you tried to hide the evidence of last night's subconscious rendezvous.

     You don't remember exactly what had happened in your dream, but you do remember that it made you want to kiss him when you woke up. And that fact scares you.

So, you distract yourself with the chest of goodies he gifted you on that second day before all hell broke loose. With your ever growing collection of shells, a small knife, and the wires from a discarded ball gown, you sit down by the fire to work: listening to the storm rolling outside.

-

Hongjoong pushes his way all the way to the front of the crowd and up to the small throne, sitting himself down next to the smaller, empty chair.

"Begin." Is all he clicks. And nobody makes a move.

Annoyance is clear on his face as he scans the people, and it's not hard for them to tell that it's because he had to leave you. He's nearly bouncing to get back to your den, and he doesn't try to hide the fact.

"Today!"

One of the lower ranked sirens swims forward and refuses to look up as he communicates in a quiet voice, "Sir, a few of us had heard of your mate's condition. And we were con-"

"Unless you are going to pray for her speedy recovery and wish us luck, I don't want to hear it. Save your breath."

"Sir, we heard you're treating her with Tophra..."

"That we are. Is there a problem?"

"I thought that it was outlawed because of la-"

"It is. Nobody else is to use it. We used it to save your future den mother, does that fact bother you so much, Minjae?"

"No, Sir. We're concerned for her, is all."

"Don't be. Yunho knows what he's doing and so do I." His dismissive tone makes the young siren realize that their cause will be going no where, so he slides back into his place amongst his brothers and gives Angel a sad glance from across the room.

"Next matter of business?"

-

     "Of all the comrades that e'er I had...They're sorry for my going away," your voice echoes in the quiet den, loud enough that it drowns out the rippling of the water as the top of Hongjoongs head emerges. His brown eyes shimmering and scales on his face a light pink as his ears twitch, focusing in on your voice.

    "And all the sweethearts that e'er I had, they'd wish me one more day to stay..." Although the treatment had stabilized your hormones and slowed the progression of you accepting his bite, it hadn't fought off all of your symptoms. Just the most painful ones.

     You sang. Very much, and very well. The past three days in the den have been filled with soft lullabies that you remembered from your childhood. More often than not luring you and Hongjoong both to sleep.

      You nested- scraps of fabric that he insisted were useless after he finished fixing a garment to fit you, you padded your sleeping area with even more- even if they did little to nothing. Sleeping deeper into the morning despite the fact that you were an early riser back home.

Your bones ached when you were away from him for too long, growing cold and tired on your lonesome.

And above all, you slowly began accepted him as your mate. Though you still preferred the words 'My Hongjoong' instead. Mate sounded too primal.

"So fill to me, the parting glass... Good night and joy be with you all. Good night an- JESUS!" You yelp as he hops out of the water noisily, shorts already on. You hold your project to your chest and muster up a glare to throw his way, only met with a cheeky smile as he joins your side by the fire. He begins skinning an unfamiliar animal, his smile unwavering.

You flatten out your hand over your DIY secretively, which gains a peek from him. "What's that?" You both ask simultaneously, a smile pulling at your lips as he chuckles.

"A secret. What's that?" You turn your body to keep working on it as he works on what is clearly dinner.

"A mammal," he explains shortly, smirk tugging at his lips as he moves to look over your shoulder- pushed away as you place your palm to his forehead and push him back. He laughs and leaves you to it, "okay then, Precious."

You both work separately until he taps your back, a wooden plate of food ready for you to share. "One more minute." You stick your tongue out in concentration, jumping slightly when he places his palm flat on your back and rubs gently.

"Your food will get cold," he pouts and he rests his head on your back, humming softly as he listens to your heart.

"I'm almost..... done!" You turn with your hands cupped together, hiding your project effectively. "Close your eyes," you blush softly as he looks at you with wide and sparkling eyes.

"It's for me?" He asks as he complies, listening to your movements closely as you crawl behind him and latch something onto his neck loosely.

"For you," you whisper as you give into your strange urges and hug him from behind, stroking his bare chest softly, "open."

His eyes flick down to the loose necklace in a millisecond flat, tears welling up as he sees the dark green shell he gifted you on your first night in his care. It's surrounded by littler ones of various colors and shapes, all dangling by his heart. "You-"

    "Mhm, I made it for you. I want you to wear it."

    You don't know the effect that your words have on him. Gifting is a way of courting in his world, and accepting is a way of also accepting the person. This is the first time you've gifted him something, and it's handmade of all the things you've accepted from him.

    "You don't have to but I pricked myself quite a few times so I'd ap-"

    "I'll wear it. I'll wear it every day, I'll never take it off!" His eagerness makes you laugh. A soft and comfortable sound that he cherishes, he gets to hear it so rarely. "I want t-" He cuts himself off as he runs his finger tips on the shells.

     "Hm?" You rest your chin over his shoulder and peek at him, a gently smile on your lips- which he seems to be zeroed in on, his eyes slowly darkening. You let go of him and back away slowly, lowering your eyes.

   "Kiss you." His short, broken, sentence makes you look up as he approaches: slotting himself between your legs and pressing his chest to yours and pushing you down to the cool floor, the necklace resting between you. "Mate."

    "Hongjoong-"

    "Mate. Kiss you," he pants as he rests his forehead on yours, his next word a desperate and drawn out whine, "please?"

    Your head moves to nod, and not even a fraction of the way there his lips are collided with yours as a feral groan rips through his throat. His hands grip at your cheeks, holding your face close to his as yours wrap up in his damp hair. A collection of clicks and purrs come from him as you moan into him softly. He just feels so right. His lips. His warmth. His love. It all feels right now.

He wants to hold you and never let go, but he remembers that you still have to breathe more than he does and pulls away from your lips just enough to let you inhale deeply- still ghosting over your soft skin. "Hongjoong," you coo softly, grabbing one of his hands and blowing on his palm, making him shiver with pleasure as your name shows up once again.

"My (Y/n), I'll always wear your shells."

I don't like recently how Wanda is suddenly a big daddy's girl for literally a huge amount of reasons

1. Magneto kept guilt tripping Wanda into staying in the brotherhood of evil mutants. Since he was the one who saved Wanda, in his eyes, that must mean she owes him and do all of his bidding. And if Wanda is staying, so was Pietro.

2. Wanda herself said Magneto isn't her father. She's angry and hurt by him and has every right to be.

3. Killed her brother.

4. Told pietro he didn't deserve resurrection right in front of them.

5. He's only used his children for his evil intent and purposes for a long time.

6. House of M and we know how that shit show was

7. Tried getting them back to join the brotherhood, even using force

There's probably a lot more tbh

I know in the beginning Magneto was more of a one dimensional villain, because over the years he's more of a in depth character, and there’s also changes of different writers and with a different writer, the characters can either be consistent and true to themselves, or completely butcher them and forget the previous storyline.

Wanda has every right to be angry with Magneto. She already has a father. Django Maximoff.

It is conflicting I'll admit. I am a sucker for girldads and seeing how Wanda and Magneto are currently makes my heart go "aww that's his baby!!" But another part of me wants Wanda to beat him up, because I know if that were me, I would HATE him. Hate him to my very core.

I feel like, personally, with the ret-con of them no longer being blood related, they really don't have a reason to stay connected unless fighting on the same team.

If marvel really wanted the direction of Wanda and Magneto having a good father-daughter relationship, then maybe they should've let Wanda be angry with Magneto longer.

Considering all the shit he's done. He can do all he wants to make up for it, but what done is done. He's shown he can be good (how he is as a grandfather, how he was with luna, and even with the new mutants, and even in AoA with him as a parent, though that is a different reality. Im just showing examples of when he can be a good parent) and that he's changed, but of course that doesn't excuse what he's done. In my opinion, if hatred hadn't poisoned his heart, he never would've done what he did.

Wanda should've been given the choice to slowly warm up to him, while still holding him responsible, and keep him at arm's lengths. This should've been done at her own pace if she really wanted to keep him in her life as her adoptive father.

Because let's not forget the man is awful to Pietro. And for the longest time, that's all she could depend on, her brother. The two only had each other and they still have each other's backs. When Magneto told Pietro he didn't deserve resurrection right in front of her, she should've beaten him up.

This is all so complicated, but let's be honest, when will it not be complicated?

Also, these are just my thoughts, feelings, and opinions. Everyone is entitled to their own. I'm just spilling my thoughts. So please, no negativity.

[nateezfics]

how would you describe the members each now that u seen them on stage?

the concert back on the 31st was my third ateez concert; so i definitely think i can confidently speak on what seeing them live is like😌 and before i speak on them individually, let me just throw out the fact that all eight of them are positively, absolutely, mind-blowingly beautiful in real life. like it’s actually insane how pretty they are!

hongjoong: he is simultaneously a cutie patootie and a demon on stage. in some moments he runs around the stage all bouncy and cute, the other moments he’s absolutely intimidating with how powerful his presence is. he’s very good at finding the cameras, so when looking at the big screen it looks like he’s staring right into your soul lol. also…..matz hongjoong. enough said.

seonghwa: he’s mesmerizing. seeing him in real life doesn’t feel like you’re actually seeing him because he’s so perfect; i don’t even know how to explain it. seonghwa just always looks so perfect no matter what he’s doing on stage. and for this latest tour, he really embodied a character so much and it was astonishing to see him evolve that character! will never get over seeing halazia seonghwa live !!

yunho: handsome golden retriever puppy that also totally bias wrecks tf outta me! he’s so adorable and handsome and silly but damn, watching him perform django really messed me up so bad. he’s so fun to watch perform because his dancing ability is out of this world! a main dancer indeed! also i think we should include him in the demon line, because the way he acts some times on stage is uh…….

yeosang: flawless! ethereal! a fairy! but also he’s so sensual when he wants to be. he actually bias wrecked me quite a lot during the concerts i went to, and i’m telling you this man is so pretty i literally cannot even explain it. super fucking good performer.

san: san is just a whole different breed when it comes to live performance and aura. this man gets so enveloped in the performance, he was truly meant to be on stage. he’s such a sweetie tho, i always love his ments so much! oh, and uh…..constantly thinking about his zoomed in crotch grab during it’s you…….

mingi: energy level x 1000000!!!! he’s insane. so pumped up the whole time. and he knows he fine as hell, you can definitely tell when he’s feeling himself on stage lol. the crowd always eats him up, and he loves it. probably one of the most excitable members during the shows, like he was just always on 100 the whole time!

wooyoung: cheeky little mf. the faces this man makes while on stage…bruh. all the little flirty looks and winks and smirks…he knows what he’s doing. blown away by his dancing skills and live vocals. he just kills it every time, and he brings such an amazing energy to the concert!

jongho: i know he’s known for his vocals but we need to give this man his flowers for his performance! he’s so good, such a good dancer. he kills the choreo while also singing like a good. and a core memory from this last concert is after he sang his song everything, the crowd was wild, chanting his name over and over. like the crowd was absolutely in awe over him and his incredibly vocals. we were all blown away!

Beyblade character design analysis: Kenta Yumiya

Masterpost here. Now let's take a look at Kenta, who somehow went from getting beaten up by the Face Hunters to gaining Ryuga's respect

Starting with the hair, it's green. This has nothing to do with his bey, but the green, and more specifically this shade, make Kenta stand out. The rest of Kenta's design is fairly generic, to the point where some actual background characters have more captivating designs (like Django), so the hair helps set him apart from someone like Osamu. Green is one of the lesser-used hair colors in mfb, and the characters with green hair all have a very dark shade (like Kyoya). Kenta is the exception, which catches our attention when the rest of his design doesn't

Kenta wears a yellow shirt with a blue stripe. The yellow-green-blue color scheme looks like the Brazilian flag (insert joke about the time the Garcias jumped Yu). The design itself is quite plain, but the colors are bright enough to make Kenta not seem like a background character. He's still a generic audience surrogate in design (and character, at least at the start), but without being too generic as to be mistaken for a background character

He lacks gloves or a visible belt, which are accessories used by most bladers. This makes his design seem more generic, and it's on purpose because almost everyone else has at least one of these 2. However, Kenta does have a belt that holds his launcher, which is just not seen very much. He is a strong blader, but doesn't seem like it at first

Kenta wears shorts. There's nothing I can really say about them other than they contribute to his child look (I mean, he is a child, but he looks way younger than almost everyone else)

His shoes are unremarkable, but unlike some other footwear, seems like something a real-life kid would wear, cementing Kenta's role as an audience surrogate for the first few episodes (though he grows out of it fairly quickly)

His hair in Fury is mostly the same, but altered slightly to be a little more detailed. This is still the same Kenta from the previous seasons, but he's older and more mature. He also becomes a lot more important to the plot in Fury. Despite having less screentime than in Fusion, his contributions are a lot bigger

His shirt gets a redesign. The new style makes him look older, which is the primary purpose. The blue stripe is also gone and instead we have a white, vertical stripe. With his redesign being more detailed in general, the blue stripe loses its purpose of making Kenta stand out as an important character. The white gives it just as much detail, if not more, but isn't as flashy. Plus, Flash Sagittario's facebolt has white in the center, unlike Flame's. Subtle foreshadowing maybe?

Kenta wears pants that are rolled up to look kinda like shorts. It makes him look older while retaining most elements from his original design. Despite how much Kenta grew over the course of the series, at his core he's still the same

His shoes are a little more detailed but still essentially the same. Not much I can say about them

Why Learning Python is the Perfect First Step in Coding

Learning Python is an ideal way to dive into programming. Its simplicity and versatility make it the perfect language for beginners, whether you're looking to develop basic skills or eventually dive into fields like data analysis, web development, or machine learning.

Start by focusing on the fundamentals: learn about variables, data types, conditionals, and loops. These core concepts are the building blocks of programming, and Python’s clear syntax makes them easier to grasp. Interactive platforms like Codecademy, Khan Academy, and freeCodeCamp offer structured, step-by-step lessons that are perfect for beginners, so start there.

Once you’ve got a handle on the basics, apply what you’ve learned by building small projects. For example, try coding a simple calculator, a basic guessing game, or even a text-based story generator. These small projects will help you understand how programming concepts work together, giving you confidence and helping you identify areas where you might need a bit more practice.

When you're ready to move beyond the basics, Python offers many powerful libraries that open up new possibilities. Dive into pandas for data analysis, matplotlib for data visualization, or even Django if you want to explore web development. Each library offers a set of tools that helps you do more complex tasks, and learning them will expand your coding skillset significantly.

Keep practicing, and don't hesitate to look at code written by others to see how they approach problems. Coding is a journey, and with every line you write, you’re gaining valuable skills that will pay off in future projects.

Oh my gosh, the letterboxd thingy got me thinking (And also my crippling obsession with the wild west and cowboys as of late, thank you red dead redemption 2…best game ever…) Yuma is 100% a fan of old western movies idk how to explain it…He just gives off hill billy, leather wearing redneck what can I say

though, I’m trying to get into western movies but it’s difficult to find good ones 💔💔 (I’ve only watched The good the bad and the ugly, Django unchained and Brokeback Mountain 😭)

Yuma’s Letterboxd Account @FarmToFilmBro “5 stars if someone shot a man over land rights, stared dramatically across a field, or if it made me wanna chomp a raw carrot and rethink masculinity” review count: 92 70% Westerns, 20% Marvel, 10% random horse documentaries | activity: only logs movies after midnight while aggressively chewing sugar cubes like they’re nicotine gum | follower count: 8.3k a cult following of cowboy-core TikTokers, Marvel gym bros, and confused horse girls

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly–★★★★★ “this movie cured my seasonal depression and made my carrots grow faster. clint eastwood has the stare of a man who’s seen God and told him to shut up 😤🔫🥕” watched it 17 times. talks to his vegetables in Eastwood quotes 3:10 to Yuma –★★★★★ “MY NAME’S IN THE TITLE Y’ALL THIS IS A SIGN FROM THE EARTH ITSELF 🚂🌵🧨” pretends this movie is his autobiography. refuses to be corrected Avengers: Infinity War–★★★★☆ “Thanos was wrong. balance ISN’T killing half the universe. it’s rotating your crops and loving your carrots 💪🥕💫” thinks Groot is the most relatable character. once planted a stick and whispered “grow, lil homie” Rango –★★☆☆☆ “no one ate a single carrot the entire movie. missed opportunity. also the lizard looked like he'd steal my sugar cubes 🦎❌🥕” got into a comment war about it. ends every argument with “grow a garden and then we’ll talk” Cowboys & Aliens –★★★☆☆ “listen i watched this high on carrot juice and i think it was actually deep as hell. aliens symbolize… fertilizer idk 🧑‍🌾👽🌽” couldn’t explain the plot but insists it was “spiritually accurate”

(follows one account: @CubeDealer420, a suspiciously active sugar cube reselling page that may or may not be a front. leaves comments like “good cube density 😩🧂” and “this one’s got the crunch of divinity.” reviews read like crop forecasts. once wrote a 900-word analysis comparing Tombstone to carrot growth cycles and ends every Tombstone log with: “hits harder than a stolen cube in drought season”)

How to Build Software Projects for Beginners

Building software projects is one of the best ways to learn programming and gain practical experience. Whether you want to enhance your resume or simply enjoy coding, starting your own project can be incredibly rewarding. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started.

1. Choose Your Project Idea

Select a project that interests you and is appropriate for your skill level. Here are some ideas:

To-do list application

Personal blog or portfolio website

Weather app using a public API

Simple game (like Tic-Tac-Toe)

2. Define the Scope

Outline what features you want in your project. Start small and focus on the minimum viable product (MVP) — the simplest version of your idea that is still functional. You can always add more features later!

3. Choose the Right Tools and Technologies

Based on your project, choose the appropriate programming languages, frameworks, and tools:

Web Development: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, or Django

Mobile Development: Flutter, React Native, or native languages (Java/Kotlin for Android, Swift for iOS)

Game Development: Unity (C#), Godot (GDScript), or Pygame (Python)

4. Set Up Your Development Environment

Install the necessary software and tools:

Code editor (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Atom, or Sublime Text)

Version control (e.g., Git and GitHub for collaboration and backup)

Frameworks and libraries (install via package managers like npm, pip, or gems)

5. Break Down the Project into Tasks

Divide your project into smaller, manageable tasks. Create a to-do list or use project management tools like Trello or Asana to keep track of your progress.

6. Start Coding!

Begin with the core functionality of your project. Don’t worry about perfection at this stage. Focus on getting your code to work, and remember to:

Write clean, readable code

Test your code frequently

Commit your changes regularly using Git

7. Test and Debug

Once you have a working version, thoroughly test it. Look for bugs and fix any issues you encounter. Testing ensures your software functions correctly and provides a better user experience.

8. Seek Feedback

Share your project with friends, family, or online communities. Feedback can provide valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. Consider platforms like GitHub to showcase your work and get input from other developers.

9. Iterate and Improve

Based on feedback, make improvements and add new features. Software development is an iterative process, so don’t hesitate to refine your project continuously.

10. Document Your Work

Write documentation for your project. Include instructions on how to set it up, use it, and contribute. Good documentation helps others understand your project and can attract potential collaborators.

Conclusion

Building software projects is a fantastic way to learn and grow as a developer. Follow these steps, stay persistent, and enjoy the process. Remember, every project is a learning experience that will enhance your skills and confidence!

I often think about why I chose to emphasize the feeling of anger when it comes to Django. Why I made it such a core aspect of his character, to the point where I always use it as a shorthand to describe the way in which he comes across as inhuman to most others. And I think that's because of a few different things that are depicted throughout the original series; mainly the violence he commits on a wide scale, and the sheer vitriol he shows towards those he finds beneath him.

My idea with Django is that there was always something innately wrong with him. A sense that he had a part of himself locked away for years up until his canonization into the Saints. And it was in joining the gang that this part of himself finally started to break out of its cage; a violent, highly destructive man who could hate like no other. However, it wouldn't be until he awoke from his five year coma that this aspect of his personality was fully realized.

I don't have to remind y'all that anger has unfortunately been an inherit part of human history since its inception. The idea that you can put so much energy into what's considered a negative emotion—sometimes to the point of committing horrible acts of violence or anything similar—is a rather harrowing thing to consider. So when I talk about the way Django feels his hatred, I want it to evoke that same feeling of distress but to a much more horrifying degree.

I've had a very good friend of mine sometimes admit that they forget just how angry and violent Django can be at times because of how he usually acts towards one of their oc's. This is by intention. I want this to be jarring. I want others to have a moment of shock when I depict him lashing out towards rival criminal organizations, law enforcement groups, and pretty much anyone else who he wishes to rip apart until their corpse is nothing but a faint reminder that this was once another human being.

The hatred that Django feels is something that so very few could devote themselves to. It is an all-consuming bottomless pit. A raging inferno that so rarely, if ever, can be extinguished. Is it exhausting? Oh, yes. It absolutely is. But god help him, he will find a way to push past that and keep it going until whatever goal he's set for himself has been accomplished.

How well do Django and Lilia get along?

Great! They're still besties, don't worry- they just don't see each other as often anymore, due to Lilia's Scrivener work. As kids, nine times out of ten, Lilia would also be tagging along with whatever shenanigans Django and Cheval were getting up to. She's a core aspect to the friend group.

However, there is still a bit of disconnect between them now: simply due to Lilia being so busy with her Scrivener duties, Django hasn't felt good about talking to her about his personal issues... She's already so stressed out as it is, why add onto that?

One Piece, Chapter 61

Thoughts, reactions and spoilers below the cut!

The way Sanji fights is so smooth. Careful but quick maneveuring (yes I know he's losing here but still!!! Cigarette toss -> slide out -> handstand kick? Satisfying)

Sanjis choice to be unequivocally kind to everyone completely changes the tide for him here. I feel like so far in the story we've seen kindness being payed back in good karma through it's recipients (like with Usopps pirates & Kaya dragging Django away from the fight with their presence), but this is the first time the karma is coming from someone who used to be cruel.

Sanjis moral philosophy might not be perfect but it's kind at it's core and that can change someone like Gin

Being a pirate that can't touch water really is horrid con in battle 💀 Especially right now when he's in a situation where there's no one who'll be able to jump in and save him, it's like a life or death version of the floor is lava

Extra thoughts:

•He's protecting his hat 😭

•Both crews shocked at their respective crewmates losing position (except for Zeff who's completely locked in lol), Sanji and Gin going through visceral pain/emotion respectively (both really well drawn btw, for two small panels they get across the characters current issue really well. There have been tons of small good panels like this before but I usually don't get to point them out oops) and Luffy's just in the corner caught in the middle of making a dumb face at Krieg. Fire
