Why are (sub)urban Americans like this

a very funky new slime mold found while fungling with my partner yesterday 💛

I think it might be Physarum luteolum, although i cannot find a record of this species in Aotearoa 🤔 it wouldnt be my first time finding a species that was previously unrecorded here, as slime molds are so numerous, and easily overlooked as a result of their size !!

I don't know why but I find these brief profiles for the love angels in Shougaku Ichinensei 11/1994 really cute. Illustrations above by Kirishima Sent.

-

Wedding Peach / Hanasaki Momoko

Born March 3rd. Blood type 0. Cheerful, but a little clumsy… A girl with angelic blood who fights devils using the power of love.

Angel Lily / Tanima Yuri

Born July 7th. Blood type A. Gentle, good at fortune telling. A girl with angelic blood who fights devils using the power of intelligence.

Angel Daisy / Tamano Hinagiku

Born May 5th. Blood type B. Tomboyish, good at fighting. A girl with angelic blood who fights devils using the power of courage.

-

While the girls are still described as angels, their profiles state that they each combat the devils using different "powers". Love for Peach, intelligence and courage for Lily and Daisy respectively.

I also find it interesting that Yuri is described as having a talent for fortune-telling in this profile. In the Secret File art book section discussing the original setting ideas for the series, Hinagiku was planned to have precognition/clairvoyance talents. However, none of the heroines retained this as a primary character trait in the finalised anime or Ciao manga (save for Yuri suggesting the missing bride's location in episode 9 of the anime).

While courage stayed as a core element of Daisy's power and persona in both anime and manga (Hinagiku performs her oironaoshi by calling "Angel Courage Daisy"), Lily's intelligence didn't become amalgamated in the same way. Interestingly though, the hint at psychic ability did remain in the oironaoshi call "Angel Prescience Lily".

This is what I love love love about older media mix titles like Wedding Peach. There are just so many changes across the different adaptations that I'm still finding out new things as I gain access to various old magazines (which is hard because ugh, they're SO expensive). And there really are a lot of different versions of the Wedding Peach story to read in print alone:

If I had a bunch of spare cash on hand right now for fandom purposes I'd be buying more magazines to scan/share and paying someone to do a proper translation of the Secret File book (because I really can't get the nuance right with the interviews). Oh well, I can dream!

one of my absolute favorite developments in the show is not only them humanizing Yzma without ruining her villain role but also her relationship with Kuzco.

In the movie we see there's a tension between them but that they must have been somewhat tolerant of each other until the firing thing happened, given Yzma never had the idea to off Kuzco until Kronk gave it to her. She did raise him for 18 years without trying anything nefarious.

But after that scene and in KNG she clearly just wants him gone so she can be empress. She doesn't care about his fate whatsoever.

We learn in evil and eviler that she refuses to let him die to become empress. She'll just stick with her kinder plan of making him fail school instead, because believe it or not, she does have a heart and a soft spot for him. Even her dream of being empress we learn is motivated more by just wanting to impress her overbearing and judgemental mother.

I love the episodes when Yzma and Kuzco work together, when they take fun jabs at eachother, and those rare moments where they actually support eachother, like in evil and eviler, the musical, cornival, yzma be gone and take my advice. They both have large and witty personalities and so they have great chemistry together, and I'm glad the show let us see it.

I feel like Kuzco does still see Yzma as his mother figure, maybe not the one he wanted but the one he has, and he, even in the movie, liked to keep her around for that reason. Likewise Yzma sees Kuzco as her son, just a silly teenage boy that she has pity for and I think she grew to enjoy his demeanor. To be fair he was a lot more laid back in the show.

My favorite line between them: "you know this truce is temporary and I'll be right back to destroying you tomorrow" (something like that)

Kuzco: I wouldn't have it any other way. 😏

Ughh. They are so cute.

Encounters with transphobes have been so rare for me lately that I always forget there's people out there who are STILL at the "being non binary isn't real/is a mental disorder" stage lmao. Have they not move on from that??

I've been out and living as an openly trans non binary person for 8 YEARS.

8. YEARS.

8 years is a lot. I've had time to watch conferences on the topic and read so many articles that I can't possibly link it all. I've seen a psychiatrist and 3 different therapists. Literally NONE OF THEM ever saw my transness and non binarity as a mental disorder or as "not real". I've mostly been working on dysphoria with them this whole time, which was way more of an issue than transness ever was. I've been through a whole self discovery journey that I can't possibly describe in a single post, had so many deep conversations about it with so many different people, experts and non experts included, during those 8. Long. Years.

People who are dismissing non binarity are just ridiculous to me now. "Being non binary isn't real" buddy those last 8 years have been VERY FUCKING REAL. You are deeply uninformed, far behind the whole topic and I'm so over people like you. Stfu.

[neve-gallus-girl-detective]

Sometimes I see a post about Veilguard that criticizes something that I find to be a crucial and wonderful part of the game, and I truly understand the question, "did we play the same game?" The answer is no! We experienced all the same things, but I delighted in it and they hated it. It's fine, really, but it's hard to wrap my head around it. You see THAT as a negative?

what is Uruk childcare?

Adar- @palatablepain I am thrilled you are interested in the future! *I personally think of children as our future* Perhaps you ask because you are considering the idea of adopting an uruk child? Whatever your reason for asking may be, I'm very pleased to educate you on the most important things. I consider myself the first expert on this matter.

The first thing one ought to know is that depending on the uruk, one can live regularly about 50 years. This is a life span that might be average but it is usually not due to natural causes. My children have endured much strife and have died young either by force or by accident due to living situations. This is quickly changing. When able to grow properly they can have the potential to live for a very long time due to the left overs of our elvish heritage.

While my children may not have the capacity to live quite as long as me, they age slowly compared to most. As sad as it is we were bred for terrible things that require a strong youthful body in order to endure hard physical labor. I simply am the exception as I am one of the first to have gone through the transformation.

*My heart aches as I speak.... but I'm able to tap that down quickly in order to continue*

birth to 3 years of age in human equivalency

🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼

Children are born in sets of 2 to 3. It is rare that children are born without siblings. This is due to our origins. We were bred to work as I mentioned before. So uruk women were built to produce more offspring to complete labor...

But I will not focus on that, as it is a very heart sinking thought. *I pause to gather myself*

Instead, I shall use my son Glûg as an example! *My frown soon brightens as I motion to my son who stands by my side*

Glûg- ...... *He stares dead pan and unimpressed with my antics but it goes completely over my head.* 🤦‍♂️🙄😒🫤😐😑

-Really... Must he drag me into these discussions...- *He thinks to himself*

Adar- As I was saying, When my son was born we made sure he attached to his mother like any other babe. As one ought to already know breastfeeding is essential.

Glûg- *he is already speeding away in the opposite direction of us the moment I mention how we kept him breastfed.*

Adar- during these years we carry them with us everywhere. Primarily on our backs. Due to certain conditions we have endured in the past the safest place a baby could be was physically on one person. This was key to the little one's survival. It has permanently been ingrained in us to constantly monitor the youngest ones amongst us as they are easy targets of danger.

We also are quite communal. We all are looking after each other's children. I said before that children are our future, so we must look after them together to ensure our survival as a race too. I also value the young generation greatly. Children are a gift and must be treated as such. In this current age I have tried my hardest to instill this mentality with all my adult children as much as I possibly can.

Parental responsibilities include pûring to soothe the baby, and grooming. Uruk have barbed tongues much like large cats. So we often groom childrens hair this way. This development was made due to our lack of accessible hygiene resources in the early days. We were built to self clean.

Ages 4 to 6

🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸

This age range is my favorite. Young uruk children at this age are wild and rambunctious! They like to run and get into loads of trouble like all children do. They are rowdy like warg cubs and often like to play fight with claws and teeth. Glûg in particular liked to curl up in a ball then roll around in a tussle with his brothers and sisters. *I begin to chuckle.*

This is also the age range that uruk children start eating other foods beyond breast milk. I personally think it is a great idea to mix other foods and continue breastfeeding during this age range. Though Glûg was very fussy about eating things beyond breast milk. That boy is still picky. *I sigh rubbing my temples*

Children are still carried on parents backs to this age. Adults continue to heavily monitor children in this age range as well. Grooming is also still a big parental responsibility. Uruk children often do not start to develop proper speech until age 7 due to our mixed animal-like genes.

So it is up to parents and adults to teach children how to communicate via pûrring, trîlling, hissing, growling, grunting, and snorting. Each sound can mean something different depending on the context. I might also add it was safer to communicate non-verbally in the early days due to our environment. This has been passed down through every generation that it has become apart of our genes and culture permanently.

A child's first trîl and pûr are a kin to their first words and is something we get extremely excited about.

I remember Glûg's first pûr *a jolly look draws up on my face* He was sitting by the sand pit in our camp, scribbling in it with sticks. Then suddenly a little lizard scurried up his arm, then sat up on his shoulder and flipped its tongue against his cheek. It made him so happy he began pûrring.

My newest son @koyaildoesstuff , has learned to trîl recently too! It happened due to a lovely family bonding moment between him, Glûg, and I. We helped each other through something rough that day. I won't forget the feeling in my heart when I hear his first trîl. The little one tried so hard to pûr but it came out as a trîl. But it made me happy all the same that Glûg and I could make an impact on his life.

*I smile waving my hand* But I digress, I'm becoming distracted. *I chuckle again*

Where was I.... *I pause to think* Oh yes!

Ages 7 to 9

💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬

this is the age range that speech is learned. Children pick it up at different speeds. Glûg was pretty young for an uruk when he started to pickup language skills. Then again I kept him in my sight and constantly worked with him every moment I had. When his mother passed away, I gladly took him under my personal care.

Teaching him vocabulary of both Black speech and common was surprisingly easy. Though this is usually not the case for other uruk children. They typically need lots of consistent help and structure to learn speech. However, things relating to math and science is something most of my little ones seem to grasp quite early on in this age range. Memory for them is also sharp.

Adults are responsible for teaching them nature survival skills at this age. During the summer in particular children help prepare for winter. Adults help guide the children by getting them involved in community processes like basket weaving for winter storage and they also are taught how to forage. Overall they are encouraged to be helpful hands to those around them. We are a communal culture. We survive by helping each other. Children must learn this at a young age.

In fact we are teaching our children these concepts at this moment in Mordor! That is why my posts have gone slow as of late. There is much to be done during the summer season.

Ages 10 to 15

⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️

Speech is usually fully developed by this time and children have a lot more responsibility. They are often charged with helping to look after the little ones and given more complex tasks in the community.

Parental responsibilities do not change too much either. We still help groom them, teach them our ways and emphasize community engagement.

Ages 16 to 19

👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨👨

This is the age range that we consider young adulthood. By now they should have a healthy basis of how life works. They also are expected to fully participate alongside the adults in the community.

-------------------------

I think this covers most of the basics about uruk child care and child development. I personally believe it is very hard to talk about one of those subjects without mentioning the other. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about raising an uruk child. I'd be happy to answer any questions you pose!

[vongola-renaissance]

Clapping slowly at the fact Tsuna was told "this is your future, this is who you'll be, it's inevitable" and he just couldn't care less.

Do you understand the GUTS he had to reject the Vongola blood legacy and his own future? He was being pressured like crazy and yeah, he can be a coward and he gives into the pressure most of the time— but not about that.

There's no way Tsuna Will continue the Vongola legacy how they want him to. He'll only get wiser and stronger with age, meaning he's his weakest now and still standing his ground firmly against the idea of being a classic Vongola boss.

It's amazing to me that All Might is a character with YEARS of experience under his belt, but is still growing and learning.

[isfjmel-phleg]

The good news: Devin Grayson emailed me back. Sooner than I was expecting, too, which I do appreciate.

The bad news: She says that she doesn't think she's going to be of much help to me since the storyline in question was written more than a quarter of a century ago, she was required to write about Grant (and Argent) by editorial mandate and she didn't feel that she knew enough about him to create new backstory, and she remembers the storyline I'm referring to but almost nothing about what led to it. I'm welcome to send my questions, but she can't claim to be an expert about Grant.

Completely understandable under the circumstances, of course. I will go ahead and send the questions on the off-chance that one or two might be answerable, but I'm not in a position to hope for too much. I do appreciate her taking the time to respond to me at all, but it looks like in this case I'm going to have to work off primarily my own analysis in discussing this story.
