Berrie Skies, I could write an essay about how much I love her...
And so I will!
She's definitely the standout from Shadow High series three, which may be surprising since her color scheme and to an extent theme, are quite similar to Zooey from s2, but I guess it goes to show that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Clearly a bluey greeney techie girl works.
I had so much fun restyling her and setting up her Hacker Zone™, and I'm obsessed with her hair, her ringlets washed out soooooo nicely (once I chipped through the massive layer of gel she had lol)
Now I want to address one of the biggest criticisms s3 and the current dolls being released by rainbow/shadow high right now have been facing: the names.
Berrie is one of the least egregious, but almost all the new dolls being introduced have very.... on the nose names.
Pinky James, Scarlet Rose, Rosie Redwood, Lavender Lynn, BLU BROOKS??? LILAC LANE??? *PINKLY* PAIGE?????????? What's going on???
So I won't sit here and argue that all of these names are incredibly clever and smart, theyre not, BUT, Berrie is clever, in several ways!
Berrie Skies is a blue doll, which may seem very odd since generally berries are red/purple themed, but its been pointed out that her name actually comes from her tech themeing.
A raspberry pi is a specific brand of little coding computer, thing. I'm not a tech person so admittedly i don't actually know much at all about what it actually is. but it's a tech thing and thats Berrie's thing.
Rasberry Pi, Berrie Skies, they rhyme!
Pretty clever yeah? and ok she's blue because blue is a techie color.
except no thats not why she's blue at all. she's blue because her color theme is actually...
BLUE RASPBERRY!!! totally radical!!
is this confirmed? no ♡ but I made the mental connection and I thought it was cool!
If you have the chance absolutely pick up Berrie, she's so amazing.

Excellent interview with a member of Ecoplatform - a group of Ukrainian anarchist environmentalists fighting on the frontlines against the Russian invasion. Be sure to turn on captions (in English) if your Ukrainian is a bit rusty!
Our friend talks about how their recon unit - equipped with drones that we helped them purchase via our Operation Blue Skies fundraiser - has kept their unit safe by warning of Russian aerial attacks.
Also some really emotional footage from when Ecoplatform liberated Ukrainian villages just hours after the Russian occupiers retreated but before the villages and surrounding countryside were obliterated by the deliberate destruction of the Kakhovka Dam by Russian saboteurs.
Support our friends here.

this morning i was doing my best to dress all my dolls for an upcoming snow storm, and i realized courtney has no cold weather gear!
i suppose she might not own her own, as she lives in sunny california, but it could be that the outfit is technically borrowed from a friend or something.
idk, it just feels like such a huge missed opportunity. AG loves putting her in those incredibly bright colors, and 80s ski suits are right there man! im no fashion historian, so i don’t know how reasonable it would have been for her to wear one, even borrowed; however, i feel like there other items in her collection that also aren’t the most feasible so. ag should just do it anyway. for me. because i think snow sets are cute 🥰

I should get a hobby that isn’t media consumption sure but have people considered that most hobbies cost money and, if not, take up space

Eduardo finally got a phone call inviting him to a 'Master Invention' opportunity!
Tumblr media
He sped through the first two requirements, finding some palladium within a few days and donating an extra stock of lifefruit I had saved from April's garden years ago
Tumblr media
I have a feeling the next stage, finding the pink diamond, is going to take a much longer time!

(To mark this March 8th, we're turning over our social media to some of the brave women in Ukraine, fighting against the Russian invasion & attempted genocide)
"A day of struggle… For over a year now, every day in Ukraine is a day of struggle. A day of struggle against the enemy and the occupier, against fear and desperation, a day of struggle for hope.
For me, 8 March has lost some of the meaning it used to have. Any struggle is first and foremost about people. I am writing these lines and imagining if 8 March was organized today… by who? An empty street, ruined houses, wind whistling, the sound of sirens, missiles flying…
24 February 2022. Most people left, a minority are fighting or volunteering… and each of them has their own traumatic story.
War is scary. War is not romantic at all, it’s death, it’s ruined lives of millions of people, war is PTSD, it’s what will leave a mark on you for your entire life, and many will not survive it at all… Here I’m asking you for a minute of silence in the memory of the comrades who have died.
Those who are at the front now need much more support than is discussed. Much more than the media or anyone else says. We need weapons, we need equipment, drones, wings, thermal imagery, medicine and many, many other things. I encourage you to look at reality honestly and soberly, we have not finished this path, it seems long and incredibly thorny.
I am calling on you to support the women who fight in Ukraine (not just women, of course, but right now we are talking about March 8), those who have taken up arms to fight the invaders, support them as much as possible. Because it is unbelievably scary and difficult, and we can overcome it all only by joining our efforts, by being together and keeping our spirits up."
-Swallow, aerial reconnaissance. SUPPORT SWALLOW: fnd.us/blueskies

So, while going through old files of old artwork that is unfinished because I either lost inspiration and stopped or I just completely hated what my brain come up with, I came across some pieces that I drew, painted, photographed, and/or distorted heavily in Photoshop, that I thought might be cool for my new melt creation that I am calling, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑇𝑒𝑙𝑙-𝑇𝑎𝑙𝑒 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡.
I’m loving this vibe 🖤

🪞,🔥, and🐍. You said the Academic was kind of bad at Glasswork, didn't you?
🔥 — Least favourite Master of the Bazaar?
The Academic and Stones do not get on well. The Academic will occasionally do espionage chores for it in The Khanate, but by now, that’s more of a duty to the group as a whole. The Academic has had a few peeks into the pasts and inner lives of its colleagues, and while Pages, Wines and Spices took it relatively well (Fires is in there too, but doesn’t know), Stones merely re-experienced its trauma.
Even if we disregard biological reasons for hoarding, each of the Masters has an emotional reason for their favorite subject. It’s pretty obvious that Stones’ aggressive hoarding is either in response to or was exacerbated by getting collected itself. It’s not a hoarder of rocks, but a hoarder “of value,” which means that if unchecked, there is no way that Stones wouldn’t simply expand its own hoard to encompass everything else. The other masters have concrete-if evil- goals and interests. But Stones seems like it's trying to get all the value and power not out of enjoyment, but so that it can pin things up where they can’t hurt it. And Stones may no longer be called the Khan of Shackles, but we know exactly what it was known for collecting in the Fourth City.
Also, Stones’ manner of speech: its penchant for antiquated personal pronouns (thee, thou, etc) isn’t just a writing quirk to make Stones sound different, but means that The Academic can tell exactly when Stones means to talk down to them. Wines might use the Royal “We,” but it desperately craves jocular companionship. Pages might make up words to sound smart, but it does honestly want others to use them too. Stones uses language as yet another barricade. That’s a personal pet peeve of The Academic’s.
The Academic is also not a fan of Eaten. They turned away from the name when they realized that they actually could win the Marvellous. To seekers, mourning Eaten is all-encompassing. The Academic doesn’t know the whole story, but whoever Candles was is gone now. Seeking is an inadequate way of balancing the scales. And for their money, if you want to find meaning in nothing, The Discordance is a magnificent and rich expanse of the beauty of meaningful nothing. Seeking is a study closing your eyes very tightly and ignoring beauty.
(Note: If you point out that Stones might have collected living humans, but Pages uh. Pages has some. Uh. You know. Bodies? You’d think that Happles would be the one to but we all know Happles just eats them. Anyway. If you point that out then The Academic will agree with you that Pages is an unforgivable monster but you’ll still see them a day later, humming merrily pushing a wheelbarrel full of proscribed material, even though their Connected: The Masters is maxed out)
🐍 — Snakes or cats?
Neither. Much better to keep playing both sides against one another. If they’re distracted at home, then they have less time to fuss about in Real business in London.
🪞 — Do they enjoy being in Parabola? Why or why not?
Parabola’s a necessary evil, and while there are interesting things to find, the Academic would tell you that directly interfering with the dreams of others is the greatest cheat of all: if we bypass a man’s conscious mind, we bypass rational discussion.
This is of course utter hogwash; The Academic’s real argument is “I don’t want these grapes anyway, they’re sour.” They barely made it through the parabola section of Heart’s Desire, and the whole place is quite a lot of nonsense to them. It’s like this tumblr post:
Tumblr media
Also if word about Parabola got out, it could be a serious business competitor to the railroad. If there’s ever an exceptional story about someone trying to use parabolan mirror-jaunts as a fast mode of travel, expect the academic to shut that down immediately and with nasty, extreme prejudice.
