i learned about Tim Wong who successfully and singlehandedly repopulated the rare California Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly in San Francisco. In the past few years, he’s cultivated more than 200 pipevine plants (their only food source) and gives thousands of caterpillars to his local Botanical Garden (x)

Darkwing Duck reboot by Frank Angones and Matt Youngberg
Aside from what I think about the Ducktales reboot as well as the Darkwing Duck reboot, which is a completely separate story, I found leaked Disney projects that talk about the Darkwing Duck reboot. Of course, this is Angones' plan to continue the Ducktales reboot in the form of Darkwing Duck, until Disney gave another man, Seth Rogen, to make a special Darkwing Duck reboot that will not look like this.
These are just the original plans for how Darkwing Duck was supposed to turn out, starring Drake Mallard, Launchpad McQuack and Gosalyn Mallard, and villains like Negaduck (Jim Starling), Quackerjack, Megavolt, Bushroot, Liquidator and Mark Beaks. And there would be Gizmoduck, Honker, Herb and Binkie Muddlefoot. Please enjoy reading and sorry if I disappointed anyone.
Yes, unfortunately for fans of Ducktales 2017, this project was not accepted in the end, so the Darkwing Duck reboot (the question of exactly when) will look very different.
#crying#this- this would have been so perfect#i gen dont see any other way that DW could have been rebooted and lived up to the original#cuz the original is really fcking good so-#sad sad sad sad sad sad#pain#archive#on a different note: they made a grammatical mistake on the last page last paragraph; wrote 'note' instead of 'not'

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).
Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

Rise Ramblings #789
While researching for a certain project, I realized something interesting about our boy Mikey.
In TMNT lore, clothing is worn for the purpose of “fitting in.” Yet in Rise, gone are the days of wearing “disguises” to pass as humans (whereas some iterations went as far as wearing human head masks.)
I think the closest we get to a “disguise for the purpose of fitting in” is when, for some inexplicable reason, they decide to wear their wrestling costumes while running a mundane errand.
Yet normally, and when sane, the Rise boys wear clothes based on the occasion, just like everyone else.
However, when I started to look at the clothing choices of a certain boy in orange, something stuck out to me.
Other than the winter gear which serves a purpose, and the basic default hoodie for most outside shenanigans, Mikey’s clothing choices are…unique compared to his brothers.
Let’s take his choice of swimwear, for instance.
While his brothers go for more traditional beach attire, what is Mikey wearing?
He’s wearing a one-piece bathing suit from the 1920’s. 😂
Of which, nowadays, is sold as a costume.
Likewise, when the boys need to infiltrate April’s school, Raph and Leo dress accordingly.
But what does Mikey wear?
Now I could be wrong, but I believe that Mikey’s fit is a reference to the movie, “Redline,” complete with an outrageous pompadour.
There are not many other instances of Mikey wearing clothes, but here are a few honorable mentions:
The most clothes Mikey does wear is obviously in “Clothes Don’t Make The Turtle.” Yet, his reception to the situation is different than that of his brothers.
My final thoughts:
This is the most normal outfit that Mikey owns.
It’s a simple sweater, pair of jeans, and glasses. This is a fit that anyone else would wear while out and about.
But for him to wear this particular look, a certain stipulation must be met.
He has to be “Doctor Feelings.”
Given all of the evidence, I’ve come to a conclusion.
I believe that Mikey doesn’t see clothes as a way to be himself. Michelangelo, instead, sees clothes as simply…Cosplay.

PSA: Don't use Open Office
I keep seeing people recommending Open Office as an alternative to Word, and uh... look, it is, technically, an open source alternative to Word. And it can do a lot of what Word can, genuinely! But it is also an abandoned project that hasn't been updated in nine years, and there's an active fork of it which is still receiving updates, and that fork is called LibreOffice, and it's fantastic.
Seriously, if you think that your choices are either "grit your teeth and pay Microsoft for a subscription" or "support free software but have a kind of subpar office suite experience", I guarantee that it's because you're working with outdated information, or outdated software. Most people I know who have used the latest version of LibreOffice prefer it to Word. I even know a handful of people who prefer it to Scrivener.
Open Office was the original project, and so it has the most name recognition, and as far as I can tell, that's really the only reason people are still recommending it. It's kind of like if people were saying "hey, the iPhone 14 isn't your only smart phone option!" but then were only ever recommending the Samsung Galaxy S5 as an alternative. LibreOffice is literally a version of the same exact program as Open Office that's just newer and better – please don't get locked into using a worse tool just because the updated version of the program has a different name!

I was reading your cursed house blog post. I’m so bummed that the link for this (PPS: These black and white photos of fairy tales look more like fairy tales do in my head than anything I've ever seen before…) no longer leads to the pics. Do you recall the artist?
Better than that. I can use the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
