hi, just curious!! do you have any bsd gender headcanons?

YES!!!!!

(HARP PLAYS AS IT CUTS TO MY THOUGHT BOUBLE)

i have quite a few gender/sexuality hcs about them actually; i've been thinking about making a huge list or drawing them whenever i got the chance! but my biggest + most solidified headcanon right now? trans girl atsushi.

it's very real to me. i think that tiger is a GIRL! and i always draw her as such even though i don't tag it, because i know it's a headcanon that goes against the grain of canon (if you know what i mean) and being new to tumblr (i wouldn't say i'm in the bsd fandom, i just like to draw), it makes me nervous! but i looveeeee trans girl atsu so much. she's very beautiful to me

WIP WEDNESDAY-“Now that’s a bird fact!” Edition.

[whyoneartheven]

YES HUZZAH

Stuff my camp kids did during snack free time today from most to least expected.

1. Eat their snack (the primary thing they are expected to do)

2. Ships and sailors (normal camp game)

3. Big kids sang the National anthem in four part harmony while the little kids buried a tenth grader in leaves and grass. (I put these together because these events clearly were connected but I’m not sure how)

4. Held a “funeral” where the girl was resurrected by everyone singing “Love Story” over her dead body.

5. Turned on “fire ambiance eight hours” on somebody’s phone, buried the phone completely in sticks in the shape of a campfire, and roleplayed as monkeys/cavemen discovering fire for the first time.

100% Wolf is the last movie i should be making content for considering how bad it is (the books are better so ive heard) but I love werewolves and i liked the tv show. So I've made a couple of OCs for it. Freddy's uncle Hotspur has kids but there's no mention of a wife so I made one. Ex wife to be more specific. Her name is Marinette and She came from a line of French werewolves. She married Hotspur when they were in their early 20s for dignitary reasons. A few years after having Harriet and Chariot they divorced due to irrevocable differences. Marinette a haughty stuck up woman, however she doesnt go far as to, you know, try to skin dogs into wigs or trap her relatives for 6 years. And she WILL bring discipline down on her kids if they misbehave to a point. In my rewrite of the film she ends up taking custody after Hotspur is arrested and enrolls the twins into a tough private school to try to straighten them out. She may be prideful but she's not raising future criminals!

Marinette is something of a rival to my self insert Corena as a parallel to Hotspur and Flasheart (Corena's love interest). Marinette looks down on her for being in the lower class and a human involved in "family" matters, yet Corena cares more about the Millford pack than she does and dislikes Marinette for only disciplining her bad ass kids when their antics made her look bad.

Marinette has cinnamon hair and steely grey eyes. Her fashion is pretty simplistic yet elegant enough to show that he's richer than you. Her wolf form has the same fur color as her human hair and her eyes shift from a steel grey to a silvery shade. Her hobbies includes making syrup water, skiing, and impromptu appointments to the spa. There's also a running gag where her sunglasses gets broken and she has to replace them with the same exact ones, or complaining about her breaking a claw in wolf form.

The Best Ways To Use Organic Turmeric In Your Cooking

Organic turmeric has been a staple in kitchens around the world for centuries, thanks to its unique flavour and numerous health benefits. With its vibrant colour and warm, earthy flavour, turmeric has become a trendy ingredient in modern cooking, popping up in everything from smoothie bowls to lattes. But turmeric isn’t just a flavour fad — it’s a nutritional powerhouse that can add a healthy boost to your meals. In this article, we’ll explore the best ways to use organic turmeric in your cooking, so you can enjoy its delicious flavour and reap its health benefits at the same time.

Here are some ways you can incorporate more of this amazing spice into your diet!

Golden Milk

Golden milk is a popular beverage that is made by mixing turmeric powder with warm milk and a sweetener like organic honey or jaggery powder. It’s a great way to start your day or to unwind at the end of a long day. To make golden milk, mix one teaspoon of organic turmeric powder with a cup of warm milk, a pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric absorption), and your preferred sweetener.

Turmeric milk reduces inflammation, boosts immunity, improves digestion, promotes restful sleep, and supports brain health.

Turmeric Powder

The glue that holds every Indian Kitchen Together!

You can always find a spice box in an average Indian household and you’ll find that Turmeric is the queen of all spices! The colour, the smell, the taste — Exquisite!

In Indian cooking, turmeric powder is often used as a key ingredient in spice blends like garam masala, as well as in curries, rice dishes, and chutneys. It is known for its ability to add depth and complexity to dishes, as well as its anti-inflammatory properties.

Roasted Vegetables

Roasting vegetables is a simple and healthy way to add more flavour and texture to your meals. Organic turmeric powder pairs well with roasted vegetables like cauliflower, sweet potato, and carrots. To make roasted vegetables with turmeric, simply toss your veggies with olive oil, salt, and a sprinkle of turmeric powder before roasting them in the oven.

Turmeric Tea

If you’re not a fan of milk-based drinks, turmeric tea is another way to enjoy the benefits of organic turmeric powder. To make turmeric tea, boil a cup of water with one teaspoon of turmeric powder and a pinch of black pepper. You can add honey or lemon juice for extra flavour.

Turmeric Rice / Porridge

Organic turmeric powder can add flavour and colour to plain rice, making it a great side dish for any meal. To make turmeric rice, cook your rice as you normally would, but add a pinch of turmeric powder and a tablespoon of butter or oil to the water. The turmeric will colour the rice a beautiful yellow hue and give it a mild, earthy flavour.

Give it a tadka of cumin, green chillies, garlic and curry leaves and viola! You’ve made Turmeric Rice aka Porridge or as we know in India, Khichdi.

Smoothies

There’s nothing better than smoothies in the morning! And adding a small dash of turmeric can do wonders for you! Adding a teaspoon of organic turmeric powder to your morning smoothie is a simple way to boost your antioxidant and anti-inflammatory intake. Turmeric pairs well with tropical fruits like mango and pineapple, as well as leafy greens like spinach and kale.

Soups and Stews

Organic turmeric powder can add depth and flavour to soups and stews. You can add a teaspoon of turmeric powder to a chicken or vegetable soup for a mild, earthy flavour. Or, try making a turmeric and lentil soup for a warming and nourishing meal.

Medical Benefits

Organic turmeric is a spice that has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine, particularly in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine. Recent scientific research has also highlighted the numerous health benefits of turmeric, particularly its anti-inflammatory properties. Here are some of the proven health benefits of organic turmeric:

Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Turmeric contains curcumin, a potent anti-inflammatory compound that has been shown to reduce inflammation and pain in numerous studies. A review of 19 studies found that curcumin was effective in reducing inflammation in people with conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease.

Antioxidant Properties

Curcumin also has strong antioxidant properties, which means it can neutralise harmful free radicals in the body and prevent oxidative damage to cells and tissues. .

Digestive Health

Turmeric has been traditionally used to treat digestive issues, and studies have found that curcumin can help reduce symptoms of conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and ulcerative colitis.

Conclusion:

Incorporating organic turmeric powder into your cooking is an easy and delicious way to reap the many health benefits of this amazing spice. From reducing inflammation to boosting immunity, turmeric has been studied for its potential to prevent and treat a variety of health conditions.

Okay, returning to this again to say that there are ways you can do historical inaccuracies well

These will be split into categories:

Good style choices : the writers knew it would be inaccurate, but decided to keep it due to it's significant tonal/thematic/ascthetic resonance. It futhers the plot, environment, tone, worldbuilding ect in a satisfying way

Eg. Bridgerton - the costumes, make up ect is wildly innacurate, but it still works, because it futhers and creates the shows unique tone and universe. As long as no one thinks that is the history, I like it

Accurate Inaccuracies : changes they made that aren't specifically accurate but are close enough, true to the general time or pattern and serve a wider purpose

Eg. Gentleman Jack - Anne Lister's clothes and hair aren't true to her portraiture, but are true to the time period, and serves the wider purpose of conveying her nonconformity, particularly in regards to gender

Unnoticeable innacuracies: the kind of (often unintentional) innacuracies that only someone passionate about the period would notice and are not significant enough to detract from the worldbuilding or sense of setting

Eg. Cross instead of spiral lacing for medieval period.

THIS CATAGORICALLY DOES NOT INCLUDE USING MODERN MAKEUP ON OTHERWISE PERIOD SHOWS. Sentenced to death by hanging. Actually that's too nice, this should be hung, drawn and quarterd.

Please add more categories or examples :)

historical inaccuracies in period dramas are okay as long as i like them

"Helio da Silva, a retired business executive from Brazil, single-handedly planted over 41,000 trees in his hometown of Sao Paulo over the last two decades.

Flying over the Brazilian metropolis of Sao Paulo, it’s tough to miss the 3.2-kilometers-long and 100-meter-wide green strip of trees wedged between two of the city’s busiest roads. It is known as Tiquatira Linear Park, and it is the work of a single man who worked tirelessly for over 20 years in order to transform a previously dilapidated area into an actual jungle within the urban jungle that is Sao Paulo. Originally from the town of Promissao, about 500km from Sao Paulo, Helio da Silva was a successful business executive for many years, but after retiring, he took it upon himself to transform the degraded banks of the Tiquatira River into a green oasis for his community. He started planting trees there in 2003 and hasn’t stopped since.

73-year-old da Silva recently told AFP that he wanted to leave a legacy to the city that adopted him decades ago. Within the first four years of his epic project, he single-handedly planted 5,000 trees in an area that had long been abandoned and known to be frequented by drug dealers and users. His impressive feat prompted the municipality of Sao Paulo to recognize his efforts and acknowledge the area as the first linear park in Sao Paulo. This only emboldened da Silva, who continued planting native trees.

By 2020, Helio had planted more than 25,047 trees over a 3.2-km-long area, achieving a survival rate of 88 percent. For every 12 trees, he planted a fruit-bearing species in the hopes of attracting birds and animals to his green oasis. His bet paid off, as according to the municipality, 45 types of birds have been identified in the park. Today, the Tiquatira Linear Park numbers over 41,000 individual trees, and Helio da Silva doesn’t plan on stopping planting until he reaches at least 50,000 of them.

“My motivation comes from the trees themselves because trees give us flowers and fruits, absorb rainwater, attract birds and provide us with wonderful shade and fresh air,” da Silva told Common Earth.

The retired executive estimates that he spent about $7,000 per year on his tree-planting efforts since 2022, but the way he sees it, it was a worthwhile investment for himself, his family and the whole of Sao Paulo. Plus, he saved a lot of money by planting the trees himself.

Once labeled as crazy for spending most of his time planting trees in an area most people avoided, Helio da Silva is now hailed as a local hero. He sometimes receives help from like-minded nature lovers, but he is still the driving force behind this amazing project. Every Sunday, he comes to Tiquatira Park to plant more trees.

Over the years, the city gym and playground equipment, tables, benches, toilets, and Tiquatira Linear Park eventually became one of Sao Paulo’s most popular areas."

Note: ONE SINGLE PERSON CAN MAKE A SUCH A DIFFERENCE

[hqmillioncorn]

Lalapril 4/30: Future

Cherrypit peeked over the edge of the crib, he wanted to get a good look at the baby in there. She was bundled up in little bright pink blanket and calmly sleeping. A huge contrast to how energetic she had been a few hours ago.  

“Why is she so small?”

Babycorn chimed in from the other room. “Believe it or not Cherry, you were once that small too!”

“...No way..” 

What was this baby supposed to be again? People had told him that she was her niece. It was something like that.

“Heads up tío Cherry!!”

Patti mustered all the force she could into her arm to deliver the best ever snowball throw anyone had ever seen. “Hiyaaah!!” Patti yelled and threw her snowball straight ahead and right at Cherrypit, who, despite having a snowball heading right towards him, knew that the best option in this situation was to remain perfectly still.

Cherrypit calmly watched as the snowball curved around him and fell straight to the ground.

“Yup. You got her throwing arm.” Cherrypit said with a smirk.

Patti let out a frustrated scream. “OH COME ON!!!” She kicked at the snow on the ground and walked in an angry circle. “That’s not fair! How did it do that?!” By all known laws of everything she knew about Eorzea the fact that snowball was capable of such feats just didn’t make sense!!

“You don’t make sense either.” Cherrypit shook his head.

Patti jumped in the air and let out a growl. “Augh!! Tío Cherrypit!! Stop reading my mind again!!” He always did this and Patti found it soooo annoying! Ever since she could remember Patti knew that it was practically impossible to surprise Cherrypit with anything. 

It made planning surprise nameday parties for him such a hassle.

Cherrypit walked over to where Patti was, taking the time to adjust the carrot nose on the snowman that they had built together. “Sorry. I can’t help it.” Cherrypit posed dramatically. His hair blew behind him in the wind. “It’s my curse! I can’t…control my powers!” Cherrypit closed his eyes for dramatic effect but kept one slightly open to see Patti’s reaction.

“Yes you can! Liar! Liar pants on fire!”

“...Okay. Maybe a little.”

Patti pouted and kicked some snow in Cherrypit’s direction and stomped a few steps away.

Cherrypit watched as Patti waddled away in her oversized coat. The pom-pom on her beanie bounced with every step. He chuckled to himself as Patti flapped her arms up and down as she gossiped with the snowman about her annoying uncle. 

Unfortunately for Patti, they had forgotten to build the snowman his own pair of ears, so he probably wasn’t listening.

Cherrypit thought back to that morning when Babycorn had seen him and Patti off. She had been worried that Patti would get cold in Ishgard during their day out so she had bundled Patti up as much as she could. 

It took some convincing from Cherrypit himself to cut down on two coats.

“Bebe I was there with just one sweater and I was fine!”

“What?? Cherry that’s cheating! You couldn’t even get cold back then!”

“I could too! I just didn’t feel as much!”

Babycorn had bought his little white lie easily.

Though they were both much older now, Cherrypit was glad to know that he could still get away with stuff like that. And he knew Babycorn wouldn't have it any other way.

Cherrypit walked closer to where Patti was playing now. It looked like she was looking around in the snow for something. He hoped for a second that Patti hadn’t inherited her mother’s habit for putting things in her mouth that she shouldn’t.

By now Patti had forgotten that she was annoyed at Cherrypit, or maybe she decided to forgive him. 

She ran over to him waving a stick in her hand, “Look! Look! Look! Tío Cherry, it's a magic wand! Just like yours!” Patti waved it around and pretended to cast a variety of spells that she had seen Cherrypit cast.

“Fire!! Fire! Fire!!” Patti continued to set Cherrypit on imaginary fire.

Cherrypit sat down on the snow with a crunch. “Oooouuh…Ow! Eeek! I sure am on fire!” With a simple tap of his finger Cherrypit created a small fiery wisp and flew it up to his head. He bounced the wisp up and down as Patti laughed.

She jumped up to try and grab it and Cherrypit moved the wisp to jump around them. “I’ll get it! I’ll get it!!” Patti taunted the wisp and chased after it, clapping her hands together to try and catch it.

Eventually after it was clear that Patti was getting a little tired, Cherrypit kept the wisp still and let Patti catch it in her hands. As she unfurled her hands she discovered the wisp floating on them. Then with a big smile, she turned to Cherrypit and showed him what she had just done.

“Tío Cherry! I caught it!”

“Woah! Way to go Patti!” Cherrypit clapped his hands for her.

Unfortunately he had gotten so excited he forgot that his hands were the thing that controlled the wisp in the first place. So both he and Patti were shocked when the wisp suddenly zipped to the left and then right back, ultimately crashing right into a mound of snow, sizzling the wisp out.

“...Jeepers.”

“Jeepers!” Patti echoed.

After a full afternoon of running around and building a few more snowmen, Cherrypit noticed that the sun was finally setting. Which meant that, even though they were having fun, they needed to get home soon.

He called over to a much more sleepy Patti and watched as she slowly waddled her way towards him.

Cherrypit smiled to himself and walked to pick Patti up. “Alright! Up we go!” But in his own special way.

With a wave of his hands he gently lifted Patti into the air and levitated her towards him. Patti giggled and waved her arms up and down the whole trip there. “Up…! Up we gooo!” she giggled. This was one of her favorite tricks that Cherrypit could do.

“Do you want to ride on my back Patti?”

Patti yawned and rubbed her eyes. “Can’t you turn into a big puppy again?” She raised her arms above her head as much as she could to emphasize just how big Cherrypit could grow in his monstrous form.

“Not this time Patti, sorry.” Cherrypit would often transform and play however Patti wanted to back in the twelveswood. He didn’t mind doing it but he knew that doing that sort of thing in the middle of Ishgard would probably come with some problems. “I promise when we get home I’ll play with you more, okay?” Cherrypit levitated Patti onto his back and grabbed onto her.

“Mhmmm…”

Patti had almost fallen fast asleep when a sudden cold breeze blew through the firmament and right past both of them.

In an instant, Patti was back to being wide awake.

“Woah! It’s cold!” She exclaimed, her feet wiggled in excitement.

“Yeah? It is huh?” Cherrypit hoped that it wouldn’t get any colder than this and that the breeze that had hit them was just a one-time occurrence. “Don’t worry we’ll be back before you know it-”

“Don’t worry Tío Cherry! I got this!” Patti boldly exclaimed. She removed her beanie from her head and plopped it down onto Cherrypit’s. Of course it was a little too small for his head so it took her a while to move it into a position that she deemed to be good enough.

“There!”

The beanie drooped a little to the side but thanks to Cherrypit’s natural spiky-ish hair it did manage to stay in place.

“Patti?” Cherrypit lifted the hat from his head and floated back on Patti’s head. “Are you sure you want to give me your hat? It might get a little colder.”

“I’m sure!” Patti took off her beanie and placed it in the exact place it had been before. “So you don’t get cold Tío Cherry! Cause you're super duper old!!”

“Oh. Well. Thanks.” He wasn’t that much older…

Patti gave another yawn, and it was clear that her sleepiness had come back with a vengeance. It didn’t take long for her to rest her head on Cherrypit’s and drift off to sleep. “Goodnight…Tío Cherry…” Patti held onto Cherrypit as tight as she could.

Cherrypit smiled, adjusting Patti on his back. “Night Patti. ” He walked along as carefully as he could. Surely whatever karmic force out there that controlled the weather would repay back years of good deeds with some warm weather in Ishgard for once.

But just in case, Cherrypit quickened his pace.

Cherrypit knew from experience that Babycorn and Butter were the worrying types. It was better to get their daughter home as quickly as he could.

He also knew he’d never hear the end of it if he managed to get himself sick doing so.
