Forgotten Evergreen PN
Just a little AU redesign doodle of my favorite frosty murder mouse.
Quite strange to think it's winter almost all year round on their island, eh? Especially when it looks quite normal on the outside.

What little remains of the tree bicycle on Vashon Island stand seven feet off the ground. Its twisted, rusted figure a mere skeleton of its former self. Having lost the front when and handlebars, you may not have even noticed it, were you not specifically looking for it.
As we found a spot to park and crossed the road, I scanned the treeline for a glimpse of this hidden wonder. Despite the rain, the flooding, and the mud, I blazed ahead searching every tree and finding footpaths, and when I saw it, I felt. . . excitement. Excitement, yes, but also sadness. This legend before me was decaying. A visual reminder of the temporal nature of all things living and created. This tree is maybe a hundred years in the making, the bicycle no less old. Year after year, as this douglas fir grew, the bicycle rusted and fell to pieces.
One day, when this tree stands three-hundred feet tall, perhaps the scraps of this machine will be entirely enveloped, having left no trace of its existence. And what a bright thought that is; that nature, in the end, will prevail over our creations?
What was there left to do, now, than line up my friends, and take a picture?

Genocide experts warn that India is about to genocide the Shompen people
Who are the Shompen?
The Shompen are an indigenous culture that lives in the Great Nicobar Island, which is nowadays owned by India. The Shompen and their ancestors are believed to have been living in this island for around 10,000 years. Like other tribes in the nearby islands, the Shompen are isolated from the rest of the world, as they chose to be left alone, with the exception of a few members who occasionally take part in exchanges with foreigners and go on quarantine before returning to their tribe. There are between 100 and 400 Shompen people, who are hunter-gatherers and nomadic agricultors and rely on their island's rainforest for survival.
Why is there risk of genocide?
India has announced a huge construction mega-project that will completely change the Great Nicobar Island to turn it into "the Hong Kong of India".
Nowadays, the island has 8,500 inhabitants, and over 95% of its surface is made up of national parks, protected forests and tribal reserve areas. Much of the island is covered by the Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve, described by UNESCO as covering “unique and threatened tropical evergreen forest ecosystems. It is home to very rich ecosystems, including 650 species of angiosperms, ferns, gymnosperms, and bryophytes, among others. In terms of fauna, there are over 1800 species, some of which are endemic to this area. It has one of the best-preserved tropical rain forests in the world.”
The Indian project aims to destroy this natural environment to create an international shipping terminal with the capacity to handle 14.2 million TEUs (unit of cargo capacity), an international airport that will handle a peak hour traffic of 4,000 passengers and that will be used as a joint civilian-military airport under the control of the Indian Navy, a gas and solar power plant, a military base, an industrial park, and townships aimed at bringing in tourism, including commercial, industrial and residential zones as well as other tourism-related activities.
This project means the destruction of the island's pristine rainforests, as it involves cutting down over 852,000 trees and endangers the local fauna such as leatherback turtles, saltwater crocodiles, Nicobar crab-eating macaque and migratory birds. The erosion resulting from deforestation will be huge in this highly-seismic area. Experts also warn about the effects that this project will have on local flora and fauna as a result of pollution from the terminal project, coastal surface runoff, ballasts from ships, physical collisions with ships, coastal construction, oil spills, etc.
The indigenous people are not only affected because their environment and food source will be destroyed. On top of this, the demographic change will be a catastrophe for them. After the creation of this project, the Great Nicobar Island -which now has 8,500 inhabitants- will receive a population of 650,000 settlers. Remember that the Shompen and Nicobarese people who live on this island are isolated, which means they do not have an immune system that can resist outsider illnesses. Academics believe they could die of disease if they come in contact with outsiders (think of the arrival of Europeans to the Americas after Christopher Columbus and the way that common European illnesses were lethal for indigenous Americans with no immunization against them).
And on top of all of this, the project might destroy the environment and the indigenous people just to turn out to be useless and sooner or later be abandoned. The naturalist Uday Mondal explains that “after all the destruction, the financial viability of the project remains questionable as all the construction material will have to be shipped to this remote island and it will have to compete with already well-established ports.” However, this project is important to India because they want to use the island as a military and commercial post to stop China's expansion in the region, since the Nicobar islands are located on one of the world's busiest sea routes.
Last year, 70 former government officials and ambassadors wrote to the Indian president saying the project would “virtually destroy the unique ecology of this island and the habitat of vulnerable tribal groups”. India's response has been to say that the indigenous tribes will be relocated "if needed", but that doesn't solve the problem. As a spokesperson for human rights group Survival International said: “The Shompen are nomadic and have clearly defined territories. Four of their semi-permanent settlements are set to be directly devastated by the project, along with their southern hunting and foraging territories. The Shompen will undoubtedly try to move away from the area destroyed, but there will be little space for them to go. To avoid a genocide, this deadly mega-project must be scrapped.”
On 7 February 2024, 39 scholars from 13 countries published an open letter to the Indian president warning that “If the project goes ahead, even in a limited form, we believe it will be a death sentence for the Shompen, tantamount to the international crime of genocide.”
How to help
The NGO Survival International has launched this campaign:
From this site, you just need to add your name and email and you will send an email to India's Tribal Affairs Minister and to the companies currently vying to build the first stage of the project.
Share it with your friends and acquittances and on social media.

Theodore and Tsumaki in Murasaki and Goemon's place...
#date: 2022 January 30#god I miss my Lupin era#I still watch Fuma every once in a while :') favorite Lupin movie ever... Goe and Mura are such stars#they are one of the cutest couples ever in my eyes ;_;#the typically stoic and shut-off Goe loving and being loved by an absolute ball of sunshine... watch me sob right now#that's not exactly a 1-to-1 comparison to Maki and Theo's dynamic but there are still similarities to be found#not to mention the cute wedding opening + the sweet affectionate moments throughout... god I was manifesting that so hard for Theomaki#also I needed an excuse to draw Theo in cute clothes because he's a cute boy :) and he deserves it <3#this was also a nice coloring exercise in replicating the warm shaded look of the older Lupin toons :P#digital art#paint tool sai#dnd#evergreen island#theodore#tsumaki#fanart#lupin iii#fuma conspiracy#friend ocs

Pier by Northerly Island and Other Poems
By Arsh Siddiqui
Pier by Northerly Island
The lucky ones could see it clearly long ago
A viridian grass carpets the murky lake bottom
Leafy and bushy vines stretch to the surface
A foggy blue glass seals all below from the lake breeze
Debris lines the rim and top of the glass
Flecks of white and thin brown sticks rest above
The further you look the more the glass hides the green
It shimmers and…
