Happy Pride month everyone B*) Allow me to reveal a little behind the scenes detail behind my Banner and Icon. Love was always winning <3
#I don't know what to tag this one to be honest#probably a#delete later#I have made a solemn promise that any icon and banner for this blog must be done in a pair. They Cannot Be Separated.#They have had too much of that already#But yes; they have always been together on the same canvas#they originally were just barley not holding hands so I fixed it <3 love wins#I'm hoping to change them out every new season I start so these guys are probably in their last month of life B'*)#can you believe wwx used to have different bangs? blasphemy#Once again throwing out meta content so I can make up for the fact I am running on fumes#starting out pride month by engaging in another sin (sloth (I slept for more than my usual 4-5 hours (this blog functions on insomnia)))#comic tomorrow cause the next batch is 90% done I literally just ran out of time.#I'm in a toxic relationship with The Grind but in a homoromantic/erotic way.#We (the grind and I) would have long metas written about how we are bad lgbtq rep and spark heated debate within the community.

New headcanon crocodile is fucking colorblind
Canon, next
#Moon posting#Asks#OP Meta#Cross Guild#My conspiricy theory is that they tried to like. Color Code Cross Guild and make sure the three didn't have same Theme Colors#Like Mihawk's dark magenta got switched out for yellow for some god forsaken reason#And I can only imagine that's because Buggy is already themed with the color red (not just the nose but his outfit too)#And the color red is lowkey representative of the main leadership position in OP#(Saw a post the other day about how Luffy wears red when he's the captain of his ship)#(But when he abandons his duties as a captain to go save Ace he wears yellow in Marineford)#(And yellow is the color he's associated with as one of the ASL brothers. So he goes save Ace not as a captain but as a brother)#IDK why they picked YELLOW for Mihawk of all fucking colors but my point is#If they wanted to do the main Primary Colors for Cross Guild then I GUESS making Crocodile's vest blue makes sense#And I guess going magenta -> yellow and green -> blue makes the most sense???#But yeah considdering green is ARGUABLY Crocodile's theme color I think it would've made more sense if they had kept it#(Like yes he wears that orange vest + blue in his Alabasta outfit and Marineford is like. Mostly neutrals)#(But the giant green furcoat and the green neck-thing are still quite iconic imo)#I'm sure I'm over thinking it#It's a mess regardless

This Is How I Can Still Win: How The Penroses Are Related to House Targaryen
SO. In case you don’t remember - you probably don’t, it’s a throwaway line and likely just George retconning and not doing it on purpose - Jeor Mormont misremembers Aelinor Penrose as being Aerys I’s sister instead of her cousin. Here’s the quote, from Jon I in A Clash of Kings:
"No, this was Aerys the First. The one Robert deposed was the second of that name.”
“How long ago was this?”
“Eighty years or close enough,” the Old Bear said, “and no, I still hadn’t been born, though Aemon had forged half a dozen links of his maester’s chain by then. Aerys wed his own sister, as the Targaryens were wont to do, and reigned for ten or twelve years."
Potentially, this means that Aelinor has ~the Valyrian look~ and that’s why Jeor got them mixed up. But when you look at the information surrounding the Penroses that existed in this era, it looks a little wonky because of this line from The Mystery Knight:
"At the crossing of the Mandel, he cut down the sons of Lady Penrose one by one. They say he spared the life of the youngest one as a kindness to his mother."
So how can Elaena marry Ronnel, Lord of the Parchments, only have one son, yet Quentyn Ball slew all of “Lady Penrose’s” sons? How is Aelinor related to the Penroses and the Targaryens? What woman of Targaryen blood would marry into this random ass house in the middle of Stormlands? Why was it so important to retcon Aelinor from a sister into a cousin? Well - let’s have a think about what other houses have recent Valyrian blood…we have some female lines after all…perhaps even Targaryen women that married into politically active houses, who would love to marry back into the main branch again…I wonder who that could be…..Oh what’s that? Is that-
DRAGON TWINS TIME.
Allow me to spin two family trees for you, one where Rhaena’s daughter marries into the Penroses, and one where Baela’s daughter marries into the Penroses:
(pls applaud me for the amount of math i did for this very unserious post!) green is a romantic/marriage line, black is a parental relationship.
I am noting that this would mean Alyssa (I made her name up btw, mostly because I thought it would piss Daemon off to have a Hightower named after his beloved mother) gives birth at around 34, which is a perfectly reasonable age to have a child at, and Laena gives birth at like 40, which is definitely a lil risky! BUT there’s plenty of time for Laena to have other children, and for a second born son to have had a child at that same age, so if you think it’s a stretch for Laena to have a kid at 40 (perfectly fair) just pretend there’s a son there named “Roland” or something as Aelinor’s dad and Laena’s second born.
Now, FIRST OF ALL, this makes the cousin thing make sense, but also it makes it deeply funny - Aelinor is Aerys’ great aunt’s granddaughter. That’s a close enough relationship that you would consider them a cousin but it’s also the exact relationship Robert has to Rhaegar (because Rhaegar is Robert’s great uncle’s grandson). Both Aerys and Robert avoiding incest/kinslaying on a technicality lol.
But SECOND OF ALL. Do you know what makes me absolutely fucjing feral about this. Alyn Velaryon is messing around with a woman so much younger than him. That she marries his GRANDSON. because SHE IS THE SAME AGE AS HIS GRANDSON. i feel like george is weird enough to do the Baela scenario too.
And LASTLY OF ALL. Notice there’s plenty of time for Alyssa/Laena aka Lady Penrose after she’s married, to have several sons for Quentyn Ball to slay on the Redgrass Field, including Elaena’s husband, Ronnel himself, and for Elaena’s son, Robin Penrose, to inherit the seat afterwards. It also means, since it’s mentioned that Elaena married Michael Manwoody soon after her second husband died, that the two of them got a long time together. Why is this important? Because Michael Manwoody was her marriage for love and I want Elaena to have been with him for a long time.
This scenario gives her like 9 years with Ronnel (kinda sad, their kids don’t get to know their dad very long) and a minimum of 15 years with Michael Manwoody, who is apparently not the step dad but the dad that stepped up.
#me giving myself ronnel/elaena feelings for no goddamn reason making this akskkd. also used show casting but its book canon.#valyrianscrolls#elaena targaryen#aelinor penrose#michael manwoody#rhaena of pentos#baela targaryen#rhaena targaryen#aerys i targaryen#ronnel penrose#house penrose#getting on my soap box#rani attempts meta#i realize this is basically a secret targaryen theory. but the targaryens they're descended from are THE DRAGON TWINS so its fine#also don’t talk to me about the aerys fancast. yes it’s wwe superstar sami zayn. what about it.#i wanted to fancast someone with some sort of swana heritage that could pass for white. had a bitch of a time not repeating anyone from my#dornish graphic. gave up and threw in my man sami bc he’s a white passing syrian icon.#i'm otherwise very proud of these fancasts. if we ever get the blackfyre rebellion and elaena isn't played by kylie bunbury#i'm gonna be disappointed now lol. also if you are wondering yes the aelinor and ronnel in the rhaena graphic have one (1) black grandparen#alfred molina is probably too sexy to play aegon iv but mark addy is already robert so.#also the longwaters sigil is from the asoiaf rp wiki bc i didn't want to give them a velaryon one#bc fuck alyn that's why#echoes of sansa and arya

so much (admittedly lovely!) art of the boss posed like a serene and gentle expressionist muse, an omniscient mother figure weeping for the state of the planet. can we give her something fun to do
#i know the boss is a difficult character to pin down but i feel like she's underrepresented? undercharacterized?#by both the game and the fandom#part of that is intentional by kojima#but i think she deserves to be talked about as a tragic character outside of “snake had to kill her how sad”#the tragedy is not that snake had to kill her#(yes this is sad for him and gives rise to the entire game series)#the tragedy is that she was ready and willing to accept death bc the war machine had already taken everything from her#she was a shell of herself by snake eater. and i wish THAT was explored more#e.g. the martyr figure that the rest of the cast continued to look up to and aspire to for the rest of the series?#that image or that icon if you will was created by the philosophers. it all connects. don't fall for philosopher propaganda lol#txt#mgs#THIS IS NOT AN ATTACK ON ANY ARTISTS

Behold, the bloodmage OC has a face. Of course as always I am extra picky so the FC I wanted does not at all have long blond hair so I had to photomanip the hair I wanted onto the face. The original picture is this one, so that is the face he'll have.
#i already showed his sister a while ago so yes#but anyway that like an experimental edit because i had this image in my head of that face--#--which has that like more serious colder look to it ( btw that the fc of another OC i have LOL i must recycle when picky )#plus i wanted specifically long silver-white hair not silver-gold; his sister's is silver-gold; his si gonna be silver-white#cuz i feel it adds to that.... coldness ( yes i keep using the word )#but anyway i have something to go from now for both so i can work on the rest ( info; more graphs; docs; etc. )#i wont be using icons at all... i have tasted the no icon writing and it's just so nice xD but i will need ref pics#tati ooc

so, sad news, and good news.
coconut very suddenly became extremely ill and we had to put him down on monday. that was always going to be hard enough on me, but the worst part was i was in california visiting relatives, and the vet did not think he would make it until the next day, when i’d be able to go home. so i had to say goodbye to him over video call. i came home last night to a house without my cat. i know i made the right call because i cannot let my pets suffer, and he lived a long and happy life where i took the best care of him i could, but it still feels awful.
the good news: i got my official hiring docs emailed to me today, and they want me to report to orientation on the 30th! once i sign and return the e-docs (which i will do later since i feel like shit rn) i will be officially employed by a county government 🥳 and i will be getting a good paycheck so i can spoil the shit out of the future cats i’m already planning to adopt! (i hope to get two, a bonded pair of adults preferably, though i’ll take kittens from the same litter or even a single cat if i’m chosen. i just love cats. i am not picky. i would have a dozen cats if it were feasible)
#text please!#pet death //#coconut was 16 btw. i think he was born in late spring so he wasn't 17 yet#he had hyperthyroidism for... four or five years?#and i couldn't get him to gain weight even with medication stabilizing his thyroid levels#so honestly him making it to 16 is impressive. i was very careful to make sure he was not suffering#and up until recently he didn't even look like an old cat. that only started maybe 6 months ago#so i kind of already knew it would be this year... i just didn't think it would be this soon in the year. and when i was across the country.#besides my cat the trip was great tho. the san diego zoo is INCREDIBLE i highly recommend going#i bought my nephews gifts from there and am very excited to give them to them this weekend#...and yes. my icon is still coconut. it has been him for like... seven years? i don't think i could ever change it.

Internet’s been crappy at night recently when I wanna play Warframe, so I just decided to switch it to solo and hunt for all the Kuria I’m missing.
I’m more than 3/4ths of the way now, and will probably have it complete by next week.
#yes I am using a tutorial#warframe#kuria#I just finished the sealab maps#never been happier to have that done#if only I didn’t have so many deadline commissions I need to work on#I’d be done with the quest already#a vast majority of these golden kavats are fairly easy to spot#others are just shoved into the highest corners to reach#and it makes me scream every time#literally cannot get to them without an operator#I had to cram my in the middle of a sign just right#to scan one hidden there#seriously screamed irl in anger#what do I get from doing all this?#a Kuria prop and an icon#but mostly mad respect#also it’s fun I guess#you get to find a lot of secret rooms

I slept in and just woke up, so here's what I've been able to figure out while sipping coffee:
Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.
The official branding is that a tweet is now called "an X", for which there are too many jokes to make.
The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn't reclaim the username first.
The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.
Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name "X" in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for "X" in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.
The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term "X Japan" is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.
Elon had workers taking down the "Twitter" name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says "er".
He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as "Xvideo". Nobody tell him.
This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.
Edit to add further developments:
Yes, this is all real. Check the notes and people have pictures. I understand the skepticism because it feels like a joke, but to the best of my knowledge, everything in the above is accurate.
Microsoft also owns the trademark on X for chatting and gaming because, y'know, X-box.
The logo came from a random podcaster who tweeted it at Musk.
The act of sending a tweet is now known as "Xeet". They even added a guide for how to Xeet.
The branding change is inconsistent. Some icons have changed, some have not, and the words "tweet" and "Twitter" are still all over the place on the site.
TweetDeck is currently unaffected and I hope it's because they forgot that it exists again. The complete negligence toward that tool and just leaving it the hell alone is the only thing that makes the site usable (and some of us are stuck on there for work).
This is likely because Musk was forced out of PayPal due to a failed credit line project and because he wanted to rename the site to "X-Paypal" and eventually just to "X".
This became a big deal behind the scenes as Musk paid over $1 million for the domain X.com and wanted to rebrand the company that already had the brand awareness people were using it as a verb to "pay online" (as in "I'll paypal you the money")
X.com is not currently owned by Musk. It is held by a domain registrar (I believe GoDaddy but I'm not entirely sure). Meaning as long as he's hung onto this idea of making X Corp a thing, he couldn't be arsed to pay the $15/year domain renewal.
Bloomberg estimates the rebranding wiped between $4 to $20 billion from the valuation of Twitter due to the loss of brand awareness.
The company was already worth less than half of the $44 billion Musk paid for it in the first place, meaning this may end up a worse deal than when Yahoo bought Tumblr.
One estimation (though this is with a grain of salt) said that Twitter is three months from defaulting on its loans taken out to buy the site. Those loans were secured with Tesla stock. Meaning the bank will seize that stock and, since it won't be enough to pay the debt (since it's worth around 50-75% of what it was at the time of the loan), they can start seizing personal assets of Elon Musk including the Twitter company itself and his interest in SpaceX.
Sesame Street's official accounts mocked the rebranding.
