wait, why can’t a decent amount of the members in proto-thunderclan not hunt?
A lot of them have serious physical disabilities! It's enough that it poses a logistical problem, which they are committed to overcoming together.
Thunder Storm's three legs makes him slower than his companions. He's ferociously powerful, but like a male lion, he has to rely on his "lionesses" to slow a large animal.
Bright Storm has asthma from her heroics trying to save SkyClan cats from a fire. She's taking that from Gray Wing, who is famously the first major death now. Like her son, she has a difficult time with chasing prey.
Bumble is dyspraxic. She's a terrible hunter and fighter and struggles with self-worth because OTHERS used it to dehumanize her, and continues to, even after an entire society forms out of love of her.
Sunlit Frost has permanent nerve damage in his arm from the fire, and ends up working so hard that it makes his disability worse. A bite on the good paw from Snake becomes infected after he refuses to sit out from digging graves after the First Battle; I am planning a chunky B-plot about Sunlit coming to terms with the fact he has to retire early.
That's FOUR major members of a small group with physical disabilities that make hunting hard or impossible. They have a lot of logistical problems that I will actually be exploring solutions to.

so leftists have been using a lot of words wrong lately but we need to fucking talk about how they use the word peace while completely throwing it's meaning out the window. peace by definition means lack of hostility and conflict, but they genuinely just use it to mean whatever the fuck now. peace is when we get what we want, peace is when the bad guys lose, peace is when a terrorist organisation breaks a ceasefire agreement to kill and kidnap and rape over a thousand people. they use the word to make their cause sound reasonable and pure when in reality they're not looking for peace, they're looking for "justice" (in heavy quotation marks because what they want can be hardly deemed as peace or justice). they want victory and supremacy for their chosen side, which is not what peace is. there are actual propositions for peace in the region and orgs working towards it but they cry and shit their pants whenever those are brought up as a possibility.

I am once again pissed at diet culture. I just watched three tiktoks in a row. how to cook dairyfree. How to meal prep without carbs. How to make healthy snacks without sugar. I keep getting (and stupidly clicking on) those articles that are like "ten things you shouldn't eat if you want to lose weight" and "why xy foods are bad for you" and wouldn't you know it last week i got recommendated articles that said those specific foods were super healthy and great for weight loss and now i should "never eat" them?? Is there any food we're still allowed to eat without being made to feel guilty?

DUUUUUDE . DUDE. the college I went to was old and creaky and bats got into buildings so often we had "bat squad" which was a group of student volunteers who you would call when there was a bat in your dorm. I was on bat squad for one (1) semester and hated it bc I'd always get called at like midnight lmao . anyway. old creaky buildings get bats in em the same way they get mice in em!!!!!! they get in cracks and then pop out the human side and panic and get stuck and u gotta scoop em up in a box or with big gloves or a blanket. they are so very scared and squeaky the whole time. I cant believe you've never had this happen I figured it was just a universal constant omg. I was also shocked when u said u didn't know sharks and stingrays were related. these r just like. so baked into me I thought they were common knowledge omg what other fun animal facts can i teach you im so excited. hehehehehehehehe
THATS FUCKING INSANE. YOU WERE ON BAT SQUAD???? THERES NO FUCKING WAY THSTS A REAL THING THAT EXISTS. that sounds so fucking made up that's literally fake. you got called at midnight to go scoop bats. that's fucking WILD?????!!!!!?????? and u scoop them???????

Would you ever be willing to write an Obi-wan + clones fic? It can be platonic but I just love the idea of the clones (Cody, Rex, Waxer, Boil, Woolley, Ghost, etc) being protective over Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan fighting the hardest for them legally, physically, making sure they know their worth and proving it to them with his actions. Ask I’m obsessed with the found family trope.
haha it would very much have to be platonic given that I am absolutely not the writer to ask for anything romantic between obi-wan and anyone that isn’t that one guy
but as far as clone fic goes, im really not sure if I even could write a fic where the focus is on obi-wan’s relationship with the clones. I sorta never really um actually watched all of the clone wars so 🤷♀️
But I think a lot of my fics have that dynamic in the background!! “but a number” features a ton of clone and general Kenobi & skywalker bonding and shenanigans, and “building a boat with no blueprints” features soooo much found family dynamics between the clones and obi-wan and baby anakin
it’s less of a dynamic im interested in if I’m being honest even though I love found family vibes. it’s just that there’s a lot of fic/meta I’ve seen that made the rest of the Jedi out to be uncaring about their clones or the bad guys in order to sort of uplift or highlight obi-wan’s relationship with his troops, which I don’t think is really fair cause the parts of the clone wars I HAVE seen don’t give me the impression that obiwan was the one decent guy who cared about the clones while the rest just treated them like slaves or droids or something - all the Jedi cared as far as I’m aware and as far as I care
