I'm thinking about working on my old book idea but that means I'll have less time for my reading challenge. Also I was hit with the fanfic bug. I really want to reach my reading goal but do I deny myself other creative pursuits because of it? Aghhhh
#I'm still ahead but I've gotten so far that I genuinely want to read 500 books in a year#I'm at 185 since November 18th#I'm right on the brink of 100 days#I'm kind of tempted to binge a bunch of books then write#But ehhhhhhhh that doesn't feel right#Idk#Text#Text post#Bookblr#writeblr#Writing

Sara and I are auctioning off 4 iconic original Warriors: The Prophecies Begin Vol 1 inked pages for charity!
We've never sold originals online before, but are excited to get these pages out of our closet for some good causes. Check out Sara's thread here on Bluesky (or here on twitter) for more information and updates!
FAQ and links to listings under the cut:
"Fire Alone" Prophecy (Page 4)
ThunderClan Camp (Page 26)
ThunderClan Life (Page 65)
Fireheart and Graystripe (Page 260)
FAQ:
“I want to buy one, but I missed out on the auction/want a different page!”
Situation permitting, we will be selling more of these later down the line. We want them out of our closet and into paws that will appreciate them! Further sales will not be auctions and will be priced in the $100-300 range depending on complexity. We’re thinking ko-fi but haven’t settled on a storefront yet.
“Will you be doing more auctions for different charities?”
I would like to, but let’s see how this one goes first!
“I don’t see a page I really want-- will you be selling X page?”
Once we start selling more originals, you’re free to ask us to list a specific page, but we can’t promise it.
“Pages look a little different than they do in the printed book– what’s up with that?”
The lineart gets edited a bit once they’re scanned before color. You (might) get to own versions of these drawings no one else has ever seen before!
“What are the blue marks on the page?”
Sara uses a blue pencil to transfer rough drawings to the bristol board for inks, which are edited out for the final page.
“Do these come pre-framed/matted?”
No, but they will be bagged.
“When is the auction running from?”
Monday, November 11, 2024 - Monday, November 18th, 2024
“Do you ship internationally?”
Yes! The buyer will have to pay for the shipping, same as domestic.
“Will you ever be selling originals from other books (Dungeon Critters, Bawk-Ness Monster, Dibbit and Boo 2, etc.)?”
Let us know if you’re interested in these, actually! We still have most of the original pages for EVERYTHING Sara’s inked in the past several years, and would love them to go to good homes.

Didn't Wanna Feel Older in 2024? TOO LATE!
So long, 2023! You have been a weird-@$$ year to say the least. Between by having to repair old thumb drives, purchase a new printer, finding out I'm susceptible to anxiety attacks, trying out dating for the first time, getting my Discord and Steam account hacked, starting a new Discord server since said account was never unhacked, opened myself up to commissions, managed to post art for Halloween, got Covid, summoned more Kaijus to play an elaborate game of poker, and had a merry enough Christmas. Here's hoping 2024 will prove better. At the moment I have no new goals, since I just want to relax after four months of constantly being active. There's a mile of books, movies, and TV shows I need to get caught up on! My opinions on all of them will be given in future Giraffe's Eye Views, but for now let's get to what you all came here for: yet another unnecessarily long list of things celebrating major milestones this year!
You all loved it when I did this last year. In fact it got more attention that anything else I posted, including the original art I put way more effort and time into. Nah, that didn't sting at all. Seeing my sketches get ignored is so much fun. Passive-aggressive joking aside, I do still love making these lists, so let's get started with some major stuff this year.
Thanksgiving wasn't too long ago, so why not mention that the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade turns 100 this year? I know, that's insane! Watching this festive event has become a seasonal staple in my house and is the only reason I've ever signed up for Peacock. Thank goodness in all those years it hasn't been smashed by a giant monster.
Godzilla turns 70 freak'n years old this year! How crazy insane is that? Here's hoping his old age won't slow him down when he teams up with King Kong this April. Even if it does, Gojira will continue being cinema's coolest character!
Contrasting with the King of the Monsters, Mary Poppins turns 60 years old this year. This movie, considered to be Walt's last masterpiece, has aged considerably well even after all this time.
Oh yeah, and Mickey Mouse enters the public domain this year. Still not entirely sure how that works, but whatever. What I do know is...

November 13th 1850 saw the birth of Robert Louis Stevenson in Edinburgh.
As the author of such classics as Treasure Island, Kidnapped and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Stevenson is known the world over, instead of reeling off the usual facts about the life of the man I thought I would dig up some facts that are not so well known.
When Stevenson first wrote Treasure Island, he submitted his stories under nom-de-plume of Captain George North to a children's periodical called Young Folks.
He may have invented the sleeping bag; according to the Stevenson House website: "R.L.S. has a good claim to be the inventor of the Sleeping Bag, taking a large fleece-lined sack with him to sleep in on the journey through France described in his book Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes." For the record, his six-foot square sleeping sack was made of "green waterproof cart-cloth without and blue sheep's fur within".
Stevenson collected corselets (a sort of protective girdle) and was particularly proud of his ones from the Gilbert Island, which were designed to offer effective protection against sharks’ teeth weapons, throwing spears and European knives and bayonets. They were made of coconut fibre and decorated with human hair. They were given to him by King Tembinoka, the Tyrant of the Island of Apemama.
He had wooden teeth, when he was living in America in 1878 and pursuing the unhappily married Fanny Vandegrift Osbourne - a woman 11 years his senior - Stevenson lived in San Francisco's Chinatown. He was lonely and in poor health and while in Tubbs Hotel he had trouble with a bleeding mouth and rotten teeth. A local dentist removed all his teeth and fitted him with false wooden replacements. He married Fanny shortly afterwards.
As well as a writer, he was also a keen musician and composer, Stevenson played the piano and flageolet and wrote more than 100 original musical compositions and arrangements, including solos, duets, trios and quartet. His works include ten songs written to his own poetry.
He burnt the first draft of Jekyll & Hyde, the story was promoted by a dream he had while in Bournemouth of a "fine bogey tale", was written around the same time as Kidnapped and was partly based on Deacon Brodie, the 18th-century Edinburgh cabinetmaker. His wife Fanny complained that he had not made the allegory strong enough and he tossed the 30,000 word manuscript into the fire. Then in "a white heat", using a quill pen and ink pot, he stayed in bed for three days and wrote a new version. He would later claim that it was the worst thing he ever wrote but The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde sold 40,000 copies in its first six months on sale in 1886.
Long John Silver stayed at the Royal Infirmary. Treasure Island character Long John Silver was based on poet WE Henley, who RLS frequently visited at the Royal Infirmary. Henley suffered from tuberculosis of the bone and acquired a wooden leg after having his left leg amputated in 1868.
He left a number of books unfinished before his untimely death in Samoa on December 3rd 1894. Reports at the time said he had died of "apoplexy" due to the heat. It was also described as a stroke and a cerebral haemorrhage brought on by straining to opening a jar of mayonnaise. Or a bottle of wine. No one is sure. He was only 44.
Stevenson was buried in a grand ceremony on Mount Vaea, Upolu and his tomb is inscribed with the words: “Home is the sailor, home from the sea,/And the hunter home from the hill.” On the day he died he had been dictating words for his unfinished novel The Chief Justice's Clerk. He also left behind an uncompleted novel called St Ives (the story of a French prisoner who made his escape from Edinburgh Castle), The Young Chevalier, Heathercat and Weir of Hermiston.
Stevenson wrote his own inscription on his grave, the full verse reads...
Under the wide and starry sky,
Dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die
,And I laid me down with a will.
This be the verse you grave for me:
Here he lies where he longed to be;
Home is the sailor, home from sea,
And the hunter home from the hill.

☽✩☾ Welcome ☽✩☾
☽✩☾ Hi, my name is Archer, the owner of this Dragon Age themed Side-Blog (main is @archerinthevoid) I use any pronouns (they/she/it especially). I’m a lesbian. While I'm not comfortable putting my actual age, I am 20+ years old.
☽✩☾ This blog is specifically for me to talk about Dragon Age (I have yet to play The Veilguard) so I can stop annoying my friend with my multi-paragraphed Rant.
☽✩☾ I have a specific canon for my games in my head that features duel protagonists in each game (because I am an indecisive mess with the romances in these games) and most of my posts will likely revolve around that world
☽✩☾ I may or may not be planning a fanfic to chronical this canon... Likely that will not be posted until each book is written which may take a while since I plan to 100% every game with at least 1 of the protagonists. Other shorter fics may be posted here if I write them but as of right now I only really plan to post my ideas as I work on these characters and also screenshots of how pretty my characters are...
☽✩☾ Any mods I use will be mentioned as they come up because I have forgotten most of them since I downloaded them months ago and only just managed to get to playing the game
☽✩☾ Navigatgion ☽✩☾

Progress on Fulfillment for Duck Prints Press Crowdfunding Campaigns
We’ve got three crowdfunding campaigns currently in the midst of fulfillment, and we wanted to take a moment to post about our progress on each of them!
Aim For The Heart: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Alexandre Dumas’s The Three Musketeers
Our most recent campaign on Kickstarter, to fund Aim For The Heart, ended on July 15th, 2023. After some print challenges revealed in the proof copy of the book, we had to make some fairly extensive tweaks to the manuscript, and getting that completely set has taken a fair amount of time. But we’re there now – the book is done and printed, and we’re just doing some final preparation on the e-book and backer data in anticipation of packing and shipping everyone’s orders this weekend, November 18th and 19th!
Many Drops Make a Stream by Adrian Harley
We were 100% on track to fulfill Many Drops Make a Stream orders within the next week or so…and then the enamel pins arrived, after 6 or so weeks in production, with an error that makes them undistributable (the poor tiger part of Droplet has no stripes on her back and hind legs!). Everything else for this campaign is ready to go, and the pin manufacturer has been very receptive to our issue and is rushing replacements for us, but we’re still at least a few weeks from having them even if they’re expedited – manufacturing enamel-ware takes time, and they have to ship from China.
That said, because we have everything else, we will be doing some distribution shortly: namely, for people who also backed Aim For The Heart, if we can save them shipping money by combining their orders, we will do so and refund the difference in shipping cost – combining the book shipping for these individuals, and then forwarding them their pins separately, will be a big savings for them.
For everyone else, we will prepare everything we can, and as soon as we have the pins we will distribute everything. If it looks like we will not have the pins before the December holidays start, we will send out everything BUT the pins, and send out pin orders alone subsequently. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we make sure that y’all get items of the quality and accuracy that you deserve!
To Drive the Hundred Miles by Alec J. Marsh
All of the merchandise for To Drive the Hundred Miles has arrived, and it looks great. We’re almost done repackaging it and preparing it for distribution. The proof of the book arrived last week, and we’ve reviewed it and made a few necessary tweaks; we re-submitted those files to the printer yesterday, and are awaiting their confirmation so we can sign off on production of the full print run. Once it’s in the print queue, our best guess is that it’ll be roughly two weeks before it arrives at our door. At that time, we’ll be able to get everyone’s pre-orders turned around pretty quickly.
Thank you everyone for your orders with us! We’re excited to bring all three of these large projects to a close, and get amazing books into all of your hands!
And keep your eyes open, because there’s more to come – the re-release of A. L. Heard’s Hockey Bois, revised and reprinted, will open for pre-orders on December 1st, and our next Kickstarter campaign for the anthology Aether Beyond the Binary will be launching on December 26th. We also expect to run a Kickstarter campaign in February for Tris Lawrence’s Twinned trilogy, and we’ve got more in the pipeline after that! So make sure you follow us on social media, subscribe to our newsletters, back us on Patreon for sneak peeks and backer-exclusive extras, and leave us reviews on Goodreads or Storygraph!
Want one or more of these books, and/or the merchandise that goes with them, but missed out on the campaigns? Don’t despair – the books and leftover merch will become available during this coming winter! So be on the look out!

Live Reading: The Salt Miracles
I am only doing this for The Salt Miracles and not the other stories in The Winter Spirits because it's too much effort and I'm already going insane. I'm also going in 100% blind, I have absolutely no idea what it's about or whose perspective it's following, but my lord am I nervous.
I haven't even started yet but I just realised I've been calling it The Salt Mines by accident and put it in a twitter post oops-
OOO IT'S SOMEONE NEW
I STILL HAVEN'T STARTED READING YET BUT I SAW THEM REFERENCE A PRIEST AND NOW I'M GOING INSANE I NEED TO BE SEDATED
I'm chewing on glass and gnawing at the bars of my fucking enclosure
This (not) reading is more indicative of my mental illness than my actual diagnoses
If St Hilda is a fucking asylum I'm going to commit several crimes
I already love Mhairi she's so fun
Wait why is it changing to another dude Mhairi was fun :((( ik I'll probably like Flint but Mhairi is cool and I want her to write a proper female mc for once
Wait wait wait if the salt is pink it's probably Himilayan, and that along with Russia was where Mori said there was a weird no-clairvoyance zone thing so ??? I'm going to lose my marbles
Ohh nvm it's algae, that would've been cool
Okay Flint is also a priest, we have two priests now
"... I've been, you know, head first in a bucket the whole way" yeah okay this is a Pulley protag and I love him
" 'A whole...Christmas selection?' 'Nuts' " that may just become my new Twitter bio (probably not I like my Glass Onion reference too much)
He has a portable camera so this is probably taking place in like the twenties, but Kodak as a company was founded literally the same time tlfop was happening which is funny
Motherfucker are we getting animal-human hybrids???
I like fog as a metaphor, especially in tlfop, so I will probably write out something about it later
"...beehives, or cairns (graves)" this sounds like when Mori threatened Ito's wife who was allergic to bees
Why tf are there pilgrims??? Ik they're not like the Mayflower types of pilgrims, but what kind of religious journey thing are they doing???
I also want to write about the complete lack of respect for government officials and just general authority from the pulleyverse protags bc none of them have any fucks to give about authority figures
"...in his unofficial capacity as the bishop's shoulder-angel" PLS-
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was mentioned and now I'm 1.) thinking about tlfop again, and 2.) am fairly certain that this story takes place not far from the events of tlfop, because the first Sherlock Holmes book was published in 1887 and he references them as being "new:
"...now the bishop didn't believe in miracles"
"I'll be Eve in a cider factory" tbh I don't understand what that means too well rn but I love it regardless (ik Eve bit the apple and all that jazz I just can't wrap my brain around the metaphor please don't explain the Bible to me)
I auto-filled an Irish accent for Kerryn in my brain so when he called Flint "Father Kang" I thought he meant "King" for a minute
Okay so it starts December 18th, which is also the date that Mori said he would come back to Japan if I'm not mistaken??? (Edit: I WAS RIGHT AND I FEEL LIKE GOD)
But I must be slightly off because X-rays weren't invented until 1895 :(((
Also I know Kerryn is probably the secondary lead but there's something off about him I don't like, I can't put my finger on it
Either Ms. Pulley messed up her math or I don't know what an advent calendar is, because I was under the impression this was in December, so how tf has Rosemary been on the island for 38 days if she's been there since September??? She would've had to have come in November for that to be true
Flint out here profiling people by name like his name isn't fucking Flint (I also definitely laughed and thought of Batman when I read Bruce's name for the first time)
I can't handle references to the winter king rn don't do this to me-
I stopped to make dinner because I'm hungry, I started at like 5:30 and it's now like 7:35 and I have some yummy pasta and pumpkin tea (I also had like 1.5 margaritas)
I can finally use my insanely eurocentric art history class notes to explain the imagery of what Flint describes in Ezekiel's angels; each of the four creature's heads is representative of the four apostles who wrote the bible, and that coupled with the biblically accurate angels coming down from on high are clear indicators of the second coming in art, meaning the previous priest was preaching the end of days to these people
I've always been such a sucker for Catholicism in gothic media, especially when it comes to imagery, so this all is right up my alley
THE O W L ? ? ?
"...the Almighty had forgotten about the United Kingdom" she's so fucking real for that
Honestly??? The Bishop sounds like he'd be a good love interest for Flint. Maybe it's because I don't like Kerryn that much even tho he's the standard choice, but the whole "hearing them talking to you in times of stress" thing is a fun thing I like with all the pulleyverse couples and it happened with the Bishop so. Hmm.
Fliny's whole color metaphor for logic + Thaniel's synesthesia sounds like another essay for me
The optimism of Flint and the pilgrims is really going to make the horror aspect of this all hit so hard I'm excited
On that note, I love how the stones that looked like beehives so readily became cairns as the tone got darker
My computer started updating as I was making this and I was so scared that I lost everything but thank fuck for tumblr drafts
Anyways those salt rocks are a grade A prime example of Chekov's gun if I've ever seen one
The rocks are fuckin BIRDS???
The fear of machinery is something we have seen in Pulley novels before, especially around this time period, but it's just making me think of the Mars House and how that would tie in
HIMB BABY BIRD I'M ABOUT TO CRY-
N O NOT THE BIRD :(((
That was fast
"The islanders didn't leave a hundred years ago. We're walking in them." this line goes so hard, especially because it includes the audience in the "we"
OOO altitude sickness, very Bedlam Stacks-core
The cloaked devil imagery and unforgotten knowledge description is giving very much Edgar Allen Poe and it's gorgeous
I cannot say I care at all about Kerryn becoming salt but damn was it a creepy twist
And the way she physically started crumbling??? Genuinely horrifying
It took this short story for me to realise that that scene in twofs where Mori is giving his side of the argument with the priest in the future where he actually did go to the wedding, he's arguing about the story of Lot, which likely was derivative of the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Wonder why that would come up. Hmm. A mystery.
"He could taste it -- something electric." PLS I'M GOING NUTS-
What in the fucking Cthulu-
Oh Mhairi's back!!! Yay!!!
Alright maybe I spoke too soon with the whole Bishop and Flint thing
Wait it's not Flint??? I thought Bruce was Flint for a second
Oh f u c k dude that was HEAVY
That's so nuts
I literally do not have words what the fuck was that ending
It was really good and clever and fun but w o w
Ending thoughts: I genuinely have none, that was terrifying and beautiful and cool as FUCK, and I think if Ms. Pulley started pumping out only horror novels from now on I would be in full support. It's a really fuckin out of pocket move considering her previous works and even her last short story that had a relatively happy ending but my god it was good. 10/10, very creeped out. Also the sign at the end??? Knowing Flint probably wrote that out and put it around his own neck like a noose??? That's so fucking hardcore I can't believe it. Utterly amazed.

Felix Jaehn
Felix Kurt Jähn (born August 28, 1994), known professionally as Felix Jaehn, is a German DJ and music producer specializing in tropical house. He achieved international success with his remix of Omi's song 'Cheerleader', which topped the charts in several countries and reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2015. Jaehn was born in Hamburg, grew up on the Baltic Sea coast (Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania) and took violin lessons at the age of six. From the age of 16, he was booked for individual club appearances as part of his DJ project Felicious Beats, which he realized with his brother and friends. He graduated from high school at the Ernst-Barlach-Gymnasium in Schönberg. Two days after his 18th birthday, Jaehn moved to London for a year and attended the Point Blank Music School. In addition to his DJ skills, which were largely self-taught, he continued his training here, particularly in the area of music production. Jaehn then moved to Berlin to study business administration at Humboldt University. In an interview with ZEITmagazin on February 22, 2018, Jaehn came out as bisexual.
He began his career in the early 2010s. In August 2013 he released his debut single “Summer by the Sea”. In November 2014 he released the single “Shine”.

Special Episode: Hotels in Del Mar, CA
Special Episode: Hotels in Del Mar, CA
Welcome to Dr. Mary Travelbest’s 5 Steps to Solo Travel Guide, for women like you who need extra support traveling (slowly) one woman at a time. Please share this podcast with your mom, aunts, and friends. I appreciate your feedback.
I’ve returned from a 90-day trip around the globe to every time zone on the planet. My mission is world peace through cultural exchange. I was sustainable when I could by using local transportation, buses, and trains. I was solo, carrying a small backpack, called a “personal item” that fit under the seat in front of me on a plane.
In this episode, FAQ is: Where was your next favorite place on your 90-day trip?
.
Today’s Destination is: Special Episode: Hotels in Del Mar
Today’s Mistake- I booked a hotel that was really a hostel in Manila
Travel Advice: Book at the source when you can and pay less plus control more.
FAQ: Where was your next favorite place on your 90-day trip?
Answer: For Iceland, the favorite place was Akureri, in the deep north of the country. It was a town of 20,000 residents, nestled in beautiful mountain areas. During my stay, there was an event for long-distance runners. The town came out to cheer them across the finish line after 100 miles of running, all the way from Godafoss. They had 43, 28 and 19 kilometer races, too. That was a powerful message to residents about getting and staying in shape.
I’ll do a podcast about this town soon, but for now, just say A-Ku-Rare-E, accent on the first syllable. That’s how they speak in Iceland.

Today’s destination: Hotels in Del Mar, CA
Suppose you’ve been to San Diego, California, a small beach town north of the city called Del Mar. “In Spanish, Of the Sea” literally. The town's size is small, less than 4000 people. You know that the tourists take up a big portion of the traffic in summer and during the horse racing seasons at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, 6 weeks in summer and 4 weeks in November.
L’Auberge, part of the Noble House Hotel Chain, is the highest-priced and most luxurious property of those near the beach. I met Taylor Webber, the Guest Experience Coordinator.
Hotel Indigo, Del Mar, and next door to…
Premiere Best Western, also called Hotel Del Mar
Del Mar Hotel upgraded from being the Del Mar Motel for many years. I met with the GM, Leslie Chavez.
Del Mar Hilton, near the Racetrack, is the lowest-priced one listed. the Yelp Reviews are less than favorable here.
You can google this and find hotels priced at $2500 a night at resorts like La Valencia. The price is not listed here for the Fairmont, Del Mar, which is in a different zip code several miles away. If you really want to stay IN Del Mar, you should consider one of these hotels, and I’ve been to each of them recently. If you have visitors this fall or winter, you may be in luck to score a room for them.
One of the best things I like to do in Del Mar is walk on the beach. You can also bring your dog to the beach during certain seasons on a leash. Tomorrow, I am going to a dog surfing contest in Del Mar. Seriously fun. The link is in the show notes if you want in next year.
https://www.visitdelmarvillage.com/all-events/18th-annual-surf-dog-surf-a-thon
https://www.tmz.com/2023/05/19/bill-gates-mansion-bachelor-pad-completed-complaints-neighbors-noise/
One famous local resident is Bill Gates. He has a bachelor pad, recently upgraded, although purchased in 2020 for $43 million.
Today’s Mistake- I booked a hotel that was really a hostel.
It was called the White Banana but changed its name. It was The Connector.
The ad said, “kitchenette, deluxe new room,”
It was old, broken, and dirty, and cash payment was due upon arrival—no money back for no-shows. Reviews were 7/10. I was stuck to pay for my stay or lose my reservation while I tried to find somewhere else.
Loud street noise. Blocked out windows. Not a good part of town.
The repairman entered my room without even knocking. He apologized, but that should NEVER happen. The kitchenette had a refrigerator and a sink. There is no electrical outlet or even any silverware or dish. All was dirty. AC was broken. I caution if it seems too good online.
Today’s Travel Advice-Book at the source when you can and pay less plus control more.
Search out listings on websites like Expedia and Booking.com, and check reviews on reputable websites. THEN book directly with the properties and airlines when you can. That will give you more control as the middleman is removed, and the transaction should be less expensive, usually.

World Regional Geography : Suriname
Astronomically, Suriname is located between 1°-6°N and 54°-55°W with a geographical location on the South American continent, precisely in the northeastern part of South America. It borders French Guiana to the east and Guyana to the west. To the south it borders Brazil , while to the north it borders the Atlantic Ocean.
Suriname has a warm and humid tropical climate because it has a distance of 2 ° - 6 ° north of the equator. The average temperature of the country is 25°C-27.5°C throughout the year in the northern regions, and slightly cooler around 23°C-25°C, in the n-strait region. Suriname has 2 (two) rainy seasons and 2 (two) summers. There is heavy rainfall between May and July when most of the country receives 250 - 400 mm per month, and a small rainy season from November to January which brings about 150 - 200 mm of rainfall per month. In the short dry season from February to April with an average monthly rainfall of 100 mm and a long dry season from August to December with less than 100 mm of rainfall per month. Suriname has an average humidity of 81%.
It was a Dutch colony in 1667 and was first explored by the Spanish in 1449. The majority of the population are ethnic Hindustani imported from India from 1873 – 1917, ethnic Maroons who came from Africa in the 17th and 18th centuries, and Creole (a mixture of white and ethnic whites and black ethnicity), as well as Javanese ethnicity imported from the Indonesian island of Java in 1890 – 1939. Religions include Protestant Christianity, Hinduism, Roman Catholicism, and Islam. Suriname has an area of 163,820 km2 with a population of 632,638 inhabitants (2022 est.).
In commemoration of the 130th anniversary of Javanese migration in Suriname, the Surinamese government sent a request for assistance to the Indonesian government to finance programs and projects. The project in question is the Waka Pasi MSME Center, the establishment of the Documentation Center, and the preparation of books related to the history of Javanese migration to Suriname. In this bilateral cooperation, Indonesia provides grants to the government of Suriname in the form of cash amounting to 1.46 billion rupiah for cultural assistance and includes costs that arising from Grant transfer transactions and procurement and delivery in accordance with Government Regulation No. 48 of 2018 concerning Procedures for Granting Grants to Foreign Governments/ Foreign Lemabag with objectives including:
Improve Indonesia's positive image both in the order of bilateral relations with Suriname and in the scope of international diplomacy.
The implementation of Indonesia's economic diplomacy to Suriname to provide economic benefits to Indonesia by increasing trade, tourist flow, and economy.
Suriname's system of government is based on constitutional democracy where the legislature is the highest body in Suriname's governance. The country is headed by the President with the center of government in Paramaribo. Suriname has used a democratic system based on the constitution since 1987. Surinamese politics uses the framework of a republic, democracy, parliamentary deputies, and a multi-party system.
Fun Fact!
Due to the large number of Javanese ethnic population, the Surinamese Javanese Princess contest will be held in 2022. As the name implies, this contestant was followed by a number of female finalists of Surinamese-Javanese descent. In an effort to preserve tradition, the contest also held a Selametan event. The event invited traditional leaders and provided Javanese specialties.

Didn't Wanna Feel Old in 2023? Sucks to be You!
Happy 2023 everybody! It's a new year meaning I've got new goals to meet. Goals like finally publishing something, setting up commissions so people can pay me to do what I love, cross-posting between my account here and on deviantART, summoning more kaijus just so they can play elaborate games of poker, y'know, all that good stuff. It also means the return of my 'list of things that have reached a milestone anniversary' list. However, it seems like I've been doing this for so long that these lists have in fact reached their own milestone. From what I could tell, this is the fifth year of my doing this, at least on deviantART. If that doesn't make you feel right from the gate, I present the following:

IVE BEEN TAGGED OMG :bibble:
I PUT THIS IN MY DRAFTS AND FORGOT ABOUT IT AORRY
This gets. Super long. I ramble.
Top three Barbie movies?
According to my sister, Rockers cannot be my #1. But it is 100% up there.
Otherwise, Princess and the Pauper and Three Musketeers are tied for first! Barbie Diaries takes the second place, and a third is impossible at the moment and I uh.. Probably Fairy Secret.
Favorite character played by Barbie?
Corinne or Barbie (Fashion Fairytale/Fairy Secret) - OR ROCKER BARBIE BELOBED!!!! Honestly it's super hard to choose because I love A LOT of them. ANNIKA TOO WAIT--- and Elina and Clara and .......
Favorite character played by Ken?
Rocker Ken
UHM. Hmm. Idk if people know my hc that Derek plays some of the princes but . My favorite 'Ken' character would probably be Louis!!! Pretty sure that that is obvious to anyone who has followed me for a little while.
Within the Derek hc, I'd have to say Dominick, but honestly he's my favorite love interest ANYWAY, so??? Plus Fashion Fairytale/Fairy Secret Ken is another beloved.
Favorite secondary character? (by which I mean any character not played by Barbie or Ken, or that is an antagonist or a pet… other than that, go wild!
This is the MOST OBVIOUS answer of them all. It's DEREK. I have not shut up about DEREK for the last FOUR MONTHS (BUT it started November 18th 2022. I did not bid on a lot with him in it and it spiraled)
I only have one Derek doll and it's a crime !!!
Favorite antagonist?
GRACIELLA COME BACK TO ME (I'm seeing thay I really love fairy secret)
There is something about her I love her so much, even if she isn't really a villain.
More of a real villain?? My vote would be MUSICAL Laverna bc idk fam I love her wayyyyy too much- OR PHILIPPE HES SILLY GOOFY
Favorite sidekick?
Miette!!! Baby girl beloved oh my god... There's something so charming about her and her little dreams.... (my friends all hate her it's so sad)
Also I love pretty much EVERY barbie cat heehee
Favorite ship? (Canon, crack whatever)
DEREK/KEN!!!!!!!! idk this is silly and im obvious but they have such a story in my head, along with the rockers, that just.... hnngngng I love them so much I cannot
That and most of the rockers ships!!! A close second is Dana/Dee Dee bc agagag they,,, they SUPPOSEDLY join the band together according to the book i see as half canon and just??? Girlfriends,,,,, and then polyrockers bc they are TOGETHER. Or dana/derek/dee dee/Diva. Leaving barbie out lmaoo
Outside of rockers? Hmmm. Kylie and Merliah I think. Theyre???? They're perfect to me, I think and 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 Surfing Mermaid girlfriends please and thank you!!!! OH and poly musketeers bc they !!!!! Idk they just r dating and Louis is their 5th wheel who just tags along bc he needs friends.
DOMINICK/ERIKA IS ALSO!!!! I dunno fam they're just so.... they.... they make my brain go brrrr I love them sm aghhhhhhhh. Their relationship is so soft and they're perfect okay??? (Also any path ot4 amazing)
Favorite song?
WE'RE BARBIE AND THE ROCKERS!!!!
or una princesa (to be a princess in Spanish. Idk why I like it more) or!! Can you Keep a Secret from fairy secret
Favorite transformation sequence?
oUGH this is a hard one. My top four in no particular order, Nutcracker, Musketeers, Pegasus and Fairy Secret
Mermaids, fairies or princesses?
hmmm. Fairies.
And bonus question: if you feel like it, pitch me the next Barbie movie!
Give me!!! Barbie Neverending Story!!!
This one would. Not be super possible due to rights but can you imagine???
One of the sisters- either Chelsea/Kelly or maybe Skipper gets the book. The whole not doing well with friends and books being a getaway might work better with Skipper but no clue. Imma just refer to whoever it is as Skipper for now bc it's easy
ANYWAY. Skipper gets ahold of the book, perhaps by stealing it like Bastian (main character of the book) does, but I can also see her accidentally taking it, but upon reaching school or maybe home, it calls to her and she locks herself away in the attic. (May work in their house if she knows a secret way in!!!)
She learns the story of Atreyu, perhaps another barbie character- one of her friends? A mirror of her friend/her- that's important in the book, but!!!
I wanna see random barbie film characters throughout the world too!!! Maybe give me a Brietta Grograman- the lion of many colors that is doomed to turn to stone each night and come back to life in the day. A Lila Falkor! Those two elves from swan lake as the Gnome people!
Ollie as the rock biter would be funny.
So many character connections can be made omg
Barbie, or at least a 'copy' of her, would be the Childlike Empress. She would be the calm ruler of Fantastica, the one who needs to be named, and Skipper would name her Barbie and !!! Cmon PLEASE (also imagine the DOLL!!!!!)
But throughout this, we get to see Skipper descend into some sort of evil, or at least antagonism, not realizing the consequences of her actions as she just. wishes. And that's the beauty of neverending story and I feel like they could do it justice if they had the chance
Maybe I just want the dolls, but. please.
OKAY UH. People 2 tag.....
@latte-cucumber OK idk if I have anyone else to tag who likes barbie. If you follow me and wanna do it PLEASE DO!!@
Okay, maybe I am the only one who thinks these are fun but... Barbie Movies Tag Game!
Top three Barbie movies?
Favorite character played by Barbie?
Favorite character played by Ken?
Favorite secondary character? (by which I mean any character not played by Barbie or Ken, or that is an antagonist or a pet… other than that, go wild!)
Favorite antagonist?
Favorite sidekick?
Favorite ship? (Canon, crack whatever)
Favorite song?
Favorite transformation sequence?
Mermaids, fairies or princesses?
And bonus question: if you feel like it, pitch me the next Barbie movie!
Tagging: @genevievebarbie @queenofhearts-93 @classicbarbie @cerisia76
(Okay, I know I said tag game, but if you want to do it, just do it. I’m very curious)

what is dracula daily? your posts about it always appear on my dash but im not 100% what it is. is it dracula fanfiction?
No, it is not Dracula fan-fiction, is the actual original Dracula novel!
Dracula Daily is the name of the whole thing and the email subscription you sign up to (here's a link to it!) in order to receive the original novel emailed to you in real time. Dracula is written in the format of letters sent between characters and diary entries they've written (among other miscellaneous things), and each of these is accompanied by a date of when they happened!
So for Dracula Daily, whenever one of those dates comes up, all the letters or diary entries from the day are put into text and sent directly to your email for you to read that day. I'm in Mountain Standard Time and they show up around 6:30am, though they've been both earlier and later than that before. Some days there are multiple entries, some days there are none! We had a period of several weeks where we heard absolutely nothing during the summer
The original novel from 125 years ago didn't have all the letters arranged in chronological order like we're reading them (they were in some other order for dramatic effect and such, but I couldn't tell you more than that!), so it's a little bit different than reading the book Dracula. However, all the content is still there! We just get to experience it in a unique way.
There's also the added bonus of this year lining up with the year it was written in! Meaning that an event noted down in a diary for Friday, September 18th in their year would be sent on Friday September 18th in our year! The week days match up for us!
It started back in May and will go until November 7th, but there is still plenty of time for anyone to get caught up and participate in the fun if they so please! I've seen people say that even though we're over half way through the timeline, we're only like 1/5-2/5ths of the way through the actual content, so catching up won't be as daunting as you might think.
Hopefully that gives you everything you need to know, but if you have further questions please don't hesitate to ask! The tumblr tag for it is also "dracula daily" just like the email service, so you can find a lot of posts and reactions in there
It's essentially like a huge reading club where every day we all read the same part of the same story and talk about it :)
#dracula daily#quil's queries#nonsie#no one would've guessed that tumblr was actually reading a 125 year old book all together#but that is what is happening!#the 'dracula daily' tag includes the daily to distinctly talk about being part of the email subscription#if you just look up dracula it'll have posts that aren't part of the book club#though I'm betting it's very overwhelmed with dracula daily atm#but yeah that's the difference and everything I think you need to know!#long post
