I'm thinking about writing an fic that's just most of the characters going through Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure's campaign except I changed a few things.
My mind has not memorized the story (bc it's been so long) other than the chapters in which you get the sources so I'm gonna replay it.
And then my mind literally said "You know that one ice level that you just... fought a wall at the end?"
I'M NOT MAKING THIS SHIT UP. There is a level- an EXPANSION PACK LEVEL- in which not only is it slick because it's an ice level, but you grab a catapult and had to take down a wall with cannons and a health bar at the tail-end of the level.
Pirate Seas? You help a traveller take her village and treasure back from pirates.
Darklight Crypt? You switch between worlds and fight off a massive eyeball that banned pies from an undead town.
Dragon's Peak? You fly on a dragon while stopping the former king's evil brother from causing chaos to Skylands.
Empire of Ice? YOU FIGHT A WALL WHILE ICE PHYSICS ARE EVERYWHERE.

if Pizza Tower ever gets a sequel or DLC. I hope they add a water level. Both water and ice levels are notorious for being slow and clunky, but Pizza Tower made a flawless ice level by subverting from how ice usually functions in them. Water is one of the most fun things in real life. Just imagine how much they could improve upon it

In a lost world where people use cassettes to transform into beasts, a lone dog seeks a way up a snowy mountain. Our job is to help him up there and then see what else we can find atop its heights.

(I can't add alt text to the video, so I'll type it here) A short video, approximately 9 to 10 seconds in length in which someone is playing Super Mario Odyssey. The player is traversing an icy area. The player hits a corner in a piece of terrain at the perfect angle to faze right through to the other side, and dying because they fell out of bounds.
Thought this was interesting.

Ok so my friend said that Ice King is basically an anime girl (huge ass, keeps getting in situations where his muumuu gets blown to reveal said huge ass, has a gay little run, etc.) And I um. My hand slipped. 😇

We're headed back to Phendrana Drifts from last year, now with a fresh coat of paint. While Samus may have cleared out the research facility, there's still more to be found in the far reaches of the glacier.

The 1987 Montreal Protocol, which phased out the production and use of chemicals that were depleting the ozone layer, has long been considered one of the most successful environmental treaties in history. New research finds that the global pact achieved another unforeseen benefit: delaying the melting of Arctic sea ice.
In a study published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers from the University of Exeter and Columbia University found that the implementation of the Montreal Protocol is delaying the first ice-free Arctic summer by up to 15 years. That’s because the chemicals banned under the agreement are also potent greenhouse gases.
“Our results show that the climate benefits from the Montreal Protocol are not in some faraway future: the protocol is delaying the melting of Arctic sea ice at this very moment,” Lorenzo Polvani, one of the study’s authors, said in a press release. 
The study authors ran a series of climate models based on two different scenarios: one that included levels of ozone-depleting substances that would be expected if the Montreal Protocol never existed, and another accounting for the global treaty. The researchers concluded that the protocol is postponing the first ice-free Arctic summer by a decade or more, and entirely due to the phasedown of ozone-depleting chemicals. 
The Montreal Protocol was created to address a hole in the stratospheric ozone layer over the Antarctic. The ozone layer protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation that causes skin cancer and cataracts in humans. The treaty phased out almost 100 chemicals — including aerosols used in hair spray and other products, refrigerants, and solvents — that were found to be responsible for destroying stratospheric ozone.
Those banned chemicals, collectively called ozone-depleting substances, or ODS, are also potent greenhouse gases, with up to tens of thousands times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide. The report authors estimate that 1 metric ton of avoided ODS emissions leads to 7,000 square meters (more than 75,000 square feet) of avoided Arctic sea loss. By way of comparison, 1 metric ton of carbon dioxide emissions results in about 3 square meters (about 32 square feet) of sea ice loss. 
Given the potency of ODSs as a greenhouse gas, the authors are not surprised at this outsize impact on Arctic sea ice levels. “Nonetheless, such a large mitigating impact of the Montreal Protocol on Arctic sea ice loss is remarkable if one keeps in mind that the protocol was aimed at preventing ozone depletion in the Antarctic stratosphere, and little was known of its effect on Arctic sea ice when the protocol was signed,” the authors noted.
According to their projections, the Montreal Protocol has already prevented more than half a million square kilometers (about 193,000 square miles) of sea ice loss. By 2030, that amount will rise to more than 1 million square kilometers, and to 2 million square kilometers of prevented Arctic sea ice loss by 2040.
