Landing Eagle & Halton

[nocternalrandomness]

Buzz Aldrin - July 20th, 1969

Pag-asa, the famed Philippine eagle, at four days old in 1992 (left) and his daughter, Mabuhay, at five days old in 2013 (right).

Both eagles were born into captivity in Davao City, Mindanao under the care of the Philippine Eagle Foundation. The Philippine eagle is a critically endangered species of eagle endemic to the Philippines with an estimated only 400 breeding pairs left in the wild. Multiple industries leading to the deforestation and destruction of the environment such as large-scale mining and logging have persisted in Mindanao for decades, affecting not only the ancestral lands of the people living in such areas but also its native animals.

In 2022, the Philippines was recognized as “still” being the deadliest country in Asia for environmentalists and land activists.

Secret relationships kinda suck irl but secret relationship ronance is something that can be so personal

Robin feeling powerless, angry and jealous when boys try to flirt with her girlfriend, sometimes able to push them away but most times feeling like she can't say a thing lest dangerous rumors about her closeness with Nancy spreading.

Nancy getting irritated when Robin gets a bit too close or brushes her hand in public because they need to be careful, only to feel bad about it later and hugging her and not letting her go.

Sneaking quick kisses in the school's bathroom when no one is around. Nancy driving her to her house after an entire day of needing some alone time with her girlfriend, desperately. Parent-approved sleepovers where they do things most girl friends wouldn't do during sleepovers. Hiding secrets from their friends, only Steve and maybe Dustin knowing, because they don't know how the rest will react. Holding hands when no one is watching. Keeping watch during an Upside Down attack and brushing the other's hair while she sleeps. Nancy defending Robin with guns if needed and Robin defending Nancy with her silver tongue. Vecna using their secret against them and them debating whether they should tell the others the whole story or not.

Happy Moon Day!

Today we celebrate one of my favorite holidays! The 55th anniversary of the day humans landed on the surface of the moon by LM-5, "Eagle" carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.

To celebrate, I thought I'd share some pictures I've taken with three important project Gemini capsules. Specifically, the first capsules flown by each of Apollo 11's future crew members, years before they were selected for their famous voyage.

Gemini VIII: Neil Armstrong's first space flight with Dave Scott

Gemini X: Michael Collins' first space flight with John Young

Gemini XII: Buzz Aldrin's first space flight with Jim Lovell

Anyway, Happy Moon Day!

I just finished Tulin's storyline and excuse me while I bawl about this game further cementing the fact that Revali made himself a Champion. He was no descendant of an ancient Sage nor did he have a loving family to train him (that we know of). There was no power destined to be his: he crafted his own version of wind control without any support or spiritual guidance and excelled at it and then he and the other Champions went into battle without the special helms, without a sacred tear/charm to further enhance his abilities, without the certainty of two rulers (and a sage from the future) with god-like powers that could back them up if things went awry. Because of this, the original Sages survived where the Champions did not.

Revali was doomed from the start and if he'd known he would've still honed his craft and piloted Medoh with his beak held high and I am in shambles about it

I finally finished a project but instead of resting, I had to draw Jet 😅 God’s War is a mess of an arc but I absolutely loved this outfit.

Soli will either update as usual tomorrow or we'll take a week off since you all got two back-to-back 3 page updates. I'll decide sometime between today and tomorrow! Until then, please enjoy this photo of Ashley sleeping upside down

The Match Catch

When new technology has been developed that allows people to know the status of their Soul Match, Steve jumps at the chance to find his One.

What does he want? His guaranteed True Love. When does he want it? NOW! (Or, preferably, by the end of summer.)

Good news: not only has Steve met his soulmate before, but he’s also slept with them before.

One problem: Steve Harrington has one hell of a bodycount.

Armed with his list of previous partners – including housemates, failed relationships, anonymous hookups, and a string of exes he’d rather not see again – and his gang of trusty, if kooky, best friends, Steve embarks on a journey that takes him through his sordid past in order to find the happily ever after he’s desperate for. Maybe it’s closer to home than he ever expected.

Redhawks returning to PDX

can almost guarantee that eagles nested there prior to colonialism but i suppose the point is that eagles are nesting there AGAIN because the environment has improved so much (from colonialism of the land and general environmental destruction/degradation) but this ultimately reminds me that Canada is stolen land.
