Pontiac Bonneville Custom Convertible, 1959. The second generation Bonneville marked two important milestones for Pontiac. As well as becoming a full line with hardtop sedan and wagons (previously the Bonneville had only been available as a coupe or convertible) it introduced the split grille and the "Wide Track" slogan. The Wide Track wasn't just ad copy, it had a front tread width of 63.7in and rear tread at 64in as opposed to other GM products with a 61in width front and rear. In doing so, Pontiac created what were considered to be the best-cornering full-size cars in the industry. Both features remained central to the Pontiac brand up until it's demise

i love second gen boy group kpop all the music videos from like 2004-2014 are like "we're going to take these boys, dress them in tight white jeans (or shiny silver pants) and probably pair a t-shirt with a scarf, then give these boys the most whack-ass haircuts we can think of, although one of them must include bangs in a bieber swoosh, then do black eyeshadow around the entire eye, then we're going to throw them into a dark room that's entirely metal and super futuristic, throw in some ankle-height stage lights and watch them dance in perfect unison"
#kpop#second generation#highlight#BAP#exo#big bang#SHINee#infinite#btob#2pm#tvxq#block b#mblaq#genuine question but did people think that they looked good with these haircuts or was it pure shock value?#because the platinum forehead swooshes were not sexy i'm sorry debut eunkwang

my thirst for Slavic characters in media knows no bounds. And no, I don’t mean some Russian spy or super model or mafia boss. I want normal and interesting characters from smaller Slavic countries who celebrate name days, who live by weird superstitions passed down through their families, who make gulash and sausage and bean stews for dinner. I want Slavic characters with affectionate nicknames given by their family. I want characters who grew up on German fantasy films from the 60s and weird soviet cartoons. I want the societal pressure and the religious guilt and the love for rolling green mountain ranges that remind them of home. I want to see myself in this real personal way that I have so rarely encountered in media or in real life.
Representation of real experiences is so often boiled down into big concepts rather than the small details that matter. Frequently it can feel like checking off boxes instead of communicating substantial themes or reflections of reality. It’s easy for a show to say a character’s family comes from Germany or Senegal or Russia but that’s usually where they draw the line. The more vague they are, the easier it is to turn entire countries or continents into generic set dressing that (in theory) could apply to millions. But it’s the mannerisms, the culture, the language, the folktales, all these things that shape you from the very moment you’re born. It’s the small details that help you connect, that resurrect the small child inside you who once lived in a foreign bubble, who experienced the awful alongside the great. I yearn to see what I am made of staring back at me through a screen. I yearn to connect to my foundations, to the culture that slowly slips from my memory as I continue to age entire oceans away from the place of its origin.

The appalling rise in recent decades of Hindu nationalism, however, which views Indian and Hindu identity as coterminous and seeks to transform India from a secular democracy into a “Hindu Rashtra”, highlights the dangers inherent in any project of national identity construction. Such a project necessarily runs the risk, as we have seen not just in India but across the world, of degenerating into a crude chauvinism that defines national identity not on any genuinely unifying basis, but rather in terms of the socially-dominant community—in the Indian case, dominant-caste Hindus—at the expense of everyone else. In the process, the rich internal diversity that characterizes any community—imagined or otherwise—is flattened and obscured in favor of a fabricated homogeneity. Likewise, internal structures of oppression such as caste and gender are swept under the rug, and those who speak out against them are lambasted for hurting the cause of national unity—all while that same national cause is twisted to serve explicitly majoritarian ends.
Therein lies the fatal flaw of the nationalist project. By flattening a community in order to imagine it, nationalism—even in its most liberatory, anti-colonial form—allows crucial questions of power and injustice within that community to remain unaddressed, giving the worst tendencies of human society all the room they need to grow and fester beneath the surface until they inevitably spill over. This is due, in large part, to the fact that even as national identity seeks to promote internal unity, its rigid adherence to a given set of borders means that it simultaneously divides people along those same lines, defining itself in opposition to everything that lies beyond them. If my nationality is X, according to our conventional understanding of what it means to “belong” to a given nation, then that necessarily means that I cannot be Y.
Regardless of the country in which we were brought up, every one of us is taught from an early age that national identity is fixed and finite, with rigid boundaries that neatly correspond to those that have been etched on the world map and given the name of Border. We have all been assigned, we are told, membership in a given imagined community, and it is expected that we will stick with that community, no questions asked—that in times of war or recession or other great national need, we will rally around the flag that was stamped onto our foreheads at birth.
The experience of immigration, however, shatters that illusion of fixity. Cracks begin to form in the rigid walls that supposedly enclose a person’s national identity the moment they step foot onto the soil of a new country, slowly expanding as they establish roots and begin to strive, consciously or unconsciously, towards acceptance by an unfamiliar and potentially unwelcoming society. No matter how strongly a person identifies with the nationality of the mother country, it is inevitable that as time goes on these bonds will weaken. In their place, the seeds of a new national identity—that of the destination country—will begin to sprout, nourished by symbolic milestones such as buying a home or applying for citizenship, new roots penetrating into new soil. By the time a second generation comes into the world, endowed perhaps with citizenship rights at the moment of birth, the ties of nationality that bind a diaspora to the motherland are weakened further as these roots extend themselves yet deeper into the new country’s soil.

Years ago, not long after the Elite Force completed their mission, new superheroes and comics began popping up. The need for Mighty Med grew so Horace Diaz left hiding and reached out to Donald Davenport- together they rebuilt the hospital and created Davenport Academy ; School for Bionics and Superheroes.
Years later brings us to now ! A new generation of heroes and bionic teenagers have arisen. So have new threats.

Loam and Nix
Loam: Sand Goopster "He wanted to look nice today, didn't want to be goopy", See above*
Body is entirely made of sand and can transform into glass at will. He can also turn into any glassware that you can think of, i.e. Bowls, walls, utensils, beakers, etc. He is endothermic which means he can take heat from the surrounding area and turn his body into glass. This bitty can absorb other sand into its body and create masterpieces but it takes up quite a bit of magic. Once his magic is depleted he’ll release the excess sand and have to remain in his sand pile for a while. Once he is fully recharged he can go back to making sand creations along with glass figurines. He can also absorb and color any sand he chooses. DO NOT GET HIM WET!!!! He will disfigure and won’t be able to put himself back together properly unless more sand is added. He is already very clean and does well with dirt because it just rolls right off of him. This bitty does not need to eat but can just for the flavor. DO NOT GIVE HIM ANYTHING WITH LIQUIDS IN IT! See above for consequences. His favorite types of food are pebbles, decorative gems (not real ones), he can eat anything plastic and glass, and perlite. His favorite things to do are designing new creations, playing hide and seek with his human (because he’s extremely good at it), going to the beach, and tagging along with his human. He loves to travel anywhere that his human does. He’s a bit of a people pleaser but he makes up for it by being able to defend himself in case of dangerous situations. His normal temperament is easy going, trusting, and laid back. But if put in a dangerous situation or putting someone he loves in danger then that would cause him to break into his attack form of shards of glass or a barrier wall with spikes protruding from it. He will defend weaker bitties from trouble and will protect them even from their human. Which means if the bitties are to be punished then you would have to punish him as well.
Nix: Blue Goldstone Spoopster
Body is a vapor like substance to resemble a ghost like form. The skeletal part of the body is a blue Goldstone which is a stone that can vaporize [kind of like dry ice]. It goes through sublimation, which is basically meaning it goes from solid to gas without becoming liquid. This is not toxic to humans, however it recommended the use of gloves or washing your hands after handling this bitty, as they may contain trace elements or minerals that could be harmful if ingested. If this bitty uses too much magic however, it needs either sunlight or moonlight to recharge their magic. DO NOT LET HIM OUT OF YOUR SIGHT!!! This bitty is a little prankster, tends to scare people by phasing in and out of walls, or going through them. This bitty doesn't exactly need to eat, since sunlight and moonlight is basically their source of food. Though if they do, it would be non-sentient crystals, however their skeletal structure can possibly change to the crystal that they eat! They are truly a rare species because of this ability. THIS BITTY IS VERY PROTECTIVE! This bitty cares about their humans and will protect them at all costs. They don't like the possibility of their humans getting hurt, so they tend to grow bigger in size when in a protective state. Not much else is known on this bitty, but from what we can tell it is possible that it was an experiment gone wrong causing the bitty to be the way it is.
*Note: These two bitties are incredibly rare and are not up for adoption. (Feel free to ask any questions)
