Ik ga het luchtalarm sowieso missen maar laten we even realistisch zijn... Weten we wat we moeten doen als het luchtalarm wel af zou gaan? Want ik niet 💀

Imagine the agony: There is not just that one event but a few. And they meet again and again. But Shad stays masked. Because she is Sharran after all. But she indulges for a while in that young noble girl that makes her feel...normal and free. Something of her own. So she keeps on volunteering for the Noble/Patriar festivities.
Viconia doesn't think any of it at first as Shad seems to be eagerly training in the subterfuge and deception that happens at these grand ball kind of things. But eventually she gets suspicious and sends another Sharran out, without Shad knowing. So they find out. And then she gets punished for it.
They can't make Shad crush/kill one of the daughters of the noble houses, even if it is a lesser one. But they can put her in agony another way: Use Tav for information gain and make her embrace loss when Shad eventually reveals all or make sure Shad chooses the mirror.
Oh the angst...the hurt. Either way: Serena has to embrace loss because at some point Shad stops showing up to these events...
Sorry. My head got away from me there.
🥺 oh my GOD not them having a forbidden little “almost-relationship” at these gatherings. Serena getting so attached to her and waiting for her- Shadowheart always keeping her at a safe distance, at first- but slowly her resolve melts away.
Shadowheart is disillusioned by sex and courting with most of the people in the cloister- it’s physical, not emotional. I think Serena’s genuine innocence and desire to truly know her would be so refreshing. She’s different than a lot of the nobles around them, so far up their own asses, they can’t seem genuine to save their own lives.
Think of all the adorable possibilities… a soft kiss to the back of a hand after a dance, stealing a drink or two, Sneaking off to the gardens for a rushed moment to kiss, Serena sneaking gifts for Shadowheart (that she can’t take to the cloister so she keeps them stashed somewhere in the city), joking about smut novels that Wyll has recommended….they get to just be young, together. Innocent and in love.
Serena probably confides in her one evening. Who knows, maybe Shadowheart even gets it in her head that she can help Serena run away??? Serena’s father may not be a direct target for assassination (assuming he’s too important or his death would be too high profile by Sharran standards), but she could intervene, somehow. Protect her.
Whatever the case, Viconia and Shar step in, and her memory is wiped.
Serena would be HEARTBROKEN to learn she was just abandoned, like that. She would go every time, hoping to see her again- but she realizes the pretty half-elf (whose name she might not even know???) is gone. And so is her chance at happiness in Baldur’s Gate.
While Shadowheart might not remember, it would be sweet if Serena did, the first time they kiss again, a decade or so later, after saving the Grove. She remembers that feeling, and realizes they’ve been entwined for so much longer than she’s realized.

what makes vash's pacifist way of life very commendable in the narrative is how despite this belief, he still understands that not everyone who pull the trigger do so solely for harm, but also for self-defense
he understands that love and peace can't fix everything, that it is natural for people to harm others who have harmed them
i love that way of showing that kindness is not the same as naivety, but a choice that him and so many others actively have to choose in this very cruel system

thinking about the australian cultural cringe on this sunny sunday hbu
#no but it's kinda true i do actually suffer from cultural cringe but i see how bad it can be for artists from australia#like idk its a big topic but like majority of our tv happens to be reality tv or imports#i actually saw a really good tiktok about how australian tv is stuck in a time warp#i feel like australian music is either indie triple j or x factor winners singles and x factor hasnt aired since 2016#and international shit has taken over the hottest 100#it says a lot that one of the few australian things to get impact internationally as of recent is bluey#dont get me wrong im so proud of bluey i love seeing my home country portrayed#but im 22. give me more.#and im not innocent to cultural cringe or alienation either but id love some good australian media that isnt americanised or makes me cring#even with heartbreak high i physically recoiled after realising it was australian#so i need to also work on not being so ashamed of australian stuff myself#and im not doing myself any favours by only listening to dutch music which in turn is a loop bc dutch ppl probs also have cultural cringe#actually they defs do#its an issue here but i defs talked to dutch ppl in nl who were suffering from cultural cringe she is international#hearing australian accents in songs is also a hard one for me. sometimes its cool but i cringe more than find it cool#even watching tina the tina turner musical when roger appeared i went FUCK NO NOT AUSTRALIANS#and the actor there is australian#idk i am rambling now#but like... this is a complex topic bc i know how bad it is for australian culture and locally produced music and shows and that#but like i do it myself#anyways doei

It's been fun, we had a good run. But they're definitely gonna be doing something about wolves in the Netherlands now.
In the past two weeks a dog and a child have (allegedly) been attacked by the same territorial pack. Nothing's been 100% proven yet but things aren't looking good for the wolves.
Wolves are protected in the NL but "problem wolves" such as this pack are allowed to have measures taken against them, whatever that may entail.
The pack in question has pups which is why they're so fiercely protective atm. It sucks big time for the child and dog who were attacked dgmw but in the end just waltzing into a wild animal's territory especially when they have pups is ill-advised.
I understand if measures will be taken against the pack. It makes me sad (in the end they're just parents protecting their offspring) but I also get that in a very densely populated country like the NL aggressive wolves are an issue we can't just ignore.
I do hope the wolves won't be killed and another measure will be taken but honestly I don't know what'll happen. Time will tell I guess.

☆°.DABI HEADCANONS.°☆
[Song 4 the mood] --- some silly hcs of my bbg to start off my blog<33
_They get more intresting as you continue to read lmao
_Warnings- swearing, blood tears
Tumblr media
☆Doesn't like spicy food, burns his throat and sour stuff is 10x more horrible, he has a raging sweet tooth tho!
☆LOVES peppermint (+flavoured stuff) it soothes his throats internal burns
☆Likes to sleep butt naked, absolutely no tops and his trousers are like a trap for his legs, he's laying in bed with shorts/boxers only
☆VERY picky eater (doesn't eat fruit hates citrus stuff but likes vegetables, Enji prolly ate them alot to keep fit which influenced Touya to follow thru)
☆Doesn't laugh at other ppls jokes, maybe a snort or gruff with a smirk
-defo snickers a lot tho when it comes to insults from him or hearing ppl give someone else a good insult
-BUT especially after his reveal and feeling less constipated of his personal life and identity he HOLLERS
-he's finally being loud and clear and WANTS to be heard
-If he hears smth funny he will bellow a loud ass laugh especially if he's the one making a joke, he's rolling all over the ground giggling and will give ppl dirty looks for not laughing along with him
-Girliest giggles while scrolling thru Enji hate twitter meme posts at like 4am
☆horrible sleep schedule, NEVER knows what time it is
☆Really doesn't give a shit abt anyth (thats not apart of his 'scheme' anyway)
-but sometimes if he's interested enuff he'll become all competitive and try to open up on you getting all cocky
-SUPER salty when he loses he's a silent sulker and will most likely berate u for it (sore ahh loser)
-SOOO SMUG IF HE WINS THO will all of a sudden mention a bet u two never made so now ur in debt to him for smth, its usually rly tame tho like if he's too lazy to get himself a drink he's been craving so now ur his little errand runner
☆100% watched those "real or fake?!" Cake videos with his siblings when they were younger
-Would throw massive hissy fits if shoto gets one right and he doesn't
-shoto is like a baby so bro is probably drooling and pointing at the screen cooing happily that he's copying his big bro touya while his role model is actually fucking seething
☆Because of this shoto prolly tried to copy touya a lot as a baby, saw big bro as a role model and made all the same decisions as him especially since touya is the only other kid with a fire quirk
☆BIG CRYBABY (after revealed identity) he's finally free he's no longer emotionally constipated, happy sad angry doesn't matter there is blood spilling from his scars but its always with a smile cause that's how he always was as a kid too, he doesn't know why he does that himself but it's actually because he can't cry, his body doesn't allow him to express his emotions properly however he can still smile
☆doesn't feel pain anywhere, uses that to his advantage a lot...
☆However he's still a whiny baby, gets stomach aches a lot prolly, his burns always itch and always has a migraine, will let EVERYONE know as an excuse for them to stfu or do shit for him, however if he's feeling especially vulnerable when feeling rly sick he's quiet and fidgety cause as a kid it was probably seen as a weakness that he would want to hide from Enji so he could train
☆Has travel/motion sickness (js like me fr), will vomit after watching a 3D Movie he's that pathetic, roller coasters r a big nono makes him dizzy js looking at them
☆ALWAYS stays up thru every movie, never once falls asleep on the couch even as a kid he gets stupid fomo over anyth (prolly bcs of Enji and shoto training)
☆He stims a lot when he gets excited/overstimulated/annoyed (kinda canon?)  Mostly his feet
☆HE DID NOT PLAN HIS DANCE, he was so into the moment and was so excited and full of emotion he just busted out moves and started dancing from sheer joy to finally be recognised once again (he stimmed lmao)
☆Bcs of his feet stims he defo was a random tiptoe walker as a kid and sometimes randomly does it as an adult
☆HUGE SENSORY ISSUE WITH SOCKS I've never seen bro wear any anyways?? Everyone in the LoV saw his feet when he wore his church shoes in s2 so wearing his big fancy boots is a great way to hide his free grippers
☆Bac to food he prolly rly likes plain food, pass him mac n cheese or any plain/tomato sauce pasta and he's happily chomping away with that big ass mouth, loves potatoes dishes he likes the mushy stuff, because of his big jaw eventho he hates fish he LOVES his chicken and beef and bites at the bone, turns into a rabbid animal sometimes
☆SO shit at shooter games, can't aim and just doesn't have the energy to get competitive over it, low key stresses him out
-however he LOVES anything that was on the Wii that he played as a kid cause he knows what he's doing, him fuyumi and natsuo all have a 3DS and got the same games to play with each other
-few years later he's now an adult with a distaste for ps5 and pcs but tenko gives him a random hacked 3DS extra he had cause dabi was complaining abt being bored when they had to lay low after some risky missions
-and he. went. feral.
-A shooter game on the 3DS? He knows what he's doing
-Defo showed off the cool trick to play as luigi in Mario bros but liked mario more cause ONCE enji said mario was 'cool'
-Always mained bowser (cause...yk Enji parallels) in Mario kart from childhood tho as an adult hes a dry bones guy, he's a nintendo>Sega baby does not know sonic nor gives a fuck
-knows quite a bit abt pokemon because fuyu had a hyperfixation on it and relaxes in animal crossing new leaf since that was natsus fav game cause he was the youngest and sucked at the harder ones, touya played a lot with them both
-but his favourite..is cooking mama 1-3 HES SO GOOD AT IT?? Just enuff chill and competitiveness, however gets weird ass whiplashes if he misses up (rarley) when mama has those fire eyes when shes angry...sounds familiar to a certain someone...
-also has a special memory of Rei trying the game and touya makes fun of his mama cause she sucked and ends up teaching her how to play and she actually gets rly good..as a kid it made him happy and proud...
-absolutely destroyed his dad in any wii sports games tho, 4 sure bowling/that samurai sword thingy is his goat (ifykyk)
-Sure he hates all the other consoles but he thinks the switch is alright, defo thought of natsu when acnh came out and the other pokemon games for fuyu
-SUPER salty no cooking mama games were made tho
☆whole heartedly believe he'd be a mamas boy if they found touya at 16 or if the incident at 13 didn't happen, would have time to mature (and yk don't miss like 3 super important years of actual development then living alone after said missed development) he would learn to see that appeasing enji was something he'd learn to resent and hate
☆Likes spiders, let's them crawl om him before flicking them off with a bored expression but if he finds out someone's scared of them he will start spooking them with the spider or ridicule them abt thier irrational fear to smth so small and inferior
-He was scared of them as a kid but during his ig...runaway Arc? (That we have no canon actual mentions of? Ig apart from the anime laptop scenes?) He found them around the places he'd sleep in for shelter so he kinda grew accustomed to them, so now knowing he overcame a fear so small he kinda likes to flaunt around his conquered fear and make fun of those still scared of them cause he's childish and thinks he's sooo great for getting over smth childish
☆surprisingly cares abt his nails? Doesn't like getting grime in them and screams internally when he sees toga a chronic nail biter chomp away at her nails mindlessly, he hates it it just irks him
☆Ik I said he'd be a picky eater, but I think in his runaway arc and first joining the LoV he became used to eating ANYTHING, raw, burnt, out of date he didn't care anymore food is food, give dude a freshly pink torn chicken wing and he'd silently eat it while watching some endeavour clip
-His obsession was so bad sometimes when he was this age that he'd forget to eat or sleep some days, hence getting him into his habit of eating anything and forcing himself out of his picky eater era
-Fortunately after joining the LoV and the whole liberation fight he went back to being his picky eater princess brat appetite back
☆Reported any endeavour praised videos, would try to dox endeavour fans and harass them, would block anyone that would disagree with him, had MULTIPLE accs cause he's js that extra, 100% used like 1 or 2 acts to back up another acc that got into a fight to look like ppl were on his side cause he's js that much of a petty baby, would be mean to literally any media (cause like let's be fr he watched other shit on that YouTube laptop) and would silently have a guilty pleasure watching creepypasta vids and speedpaints, knows all thier lore and was a victim to the slenderman family trope thing, prolly idolised the edgy teens that turn into psychomurderers ig as he starts to peice his new identity and yk...actually murdering ppl...but who cares??? mention eyeless Jack and his eyes will secretly sparkle in 90s anime style fashion, let bro rant abt it...
☆Speaking of which, if he were to ever doodle he'd so have some sort of low effort chibi 90s anime/scene emo kid art style, dude defo has an emo D carved/flamed on random abandoned buildings, was also a kid obsessed with that one S doodle
☆He's a pretty light sleeper, he never got much sleep as a kid and would prolly try to imitate enjis rly bad hero sleep schedule, after the hospital arc he defo is a sleepy guy but again can't sleep since he's on the streets, however after joining LoV he gets a little better at sleeping, before he was a silent guy but now he's js like his 13 Yr old self snoring LOUDLY but will 100% deny it, still a light sleeper but a little less worse than what it was
Tumblr media
MY HC W ME/READER IG HEH😈(self indulgent cause I can)
☆He doesn't care much for music, will remember those old nightcore songs and doesn't mind heavy metal and rock but it kinda gives him a headache so he doesn't rly go out of his way to listen to anyth, u will NOT catch bro jamming to some random pop song, maybe after his reveal ull get a sentence or two from a popular old song from like avril lavene and a foot step to a rhythm but again not much care, however dude wouldn't mind listening to my background animal crossing playlist, he'd defo love the rain sf versions and would prolly help him sleep, the rain is a super big comfort to him it's like his white noise, his favourite is 1AM in acnl cause...idk it js is dont fight me on it
☆WORSE night terrors, is a victim of sleep paralysis, sleeping on the streets defo did a huge number on this dude, if we're talking abt being a potential partner he'd calm down and gently pull u towards him to hold it'll help him feel grounded, makes him feel safe knowing someone is sleeping next to him in general like he slept next to natsuo, when he was a kid natsuo would be too tired and a heavy sleeper to rly know abt touya waking up in sweats which didn't help when he was younger(natsuo is not like his big bro he is a DEEP sleeper) so if ur there with him hugging him whispering a word or two of reassurance(don't start blabbering he'll get annoyed he's prone to headaches especially when ur trying to be some saint) so he'll find comfort in u, best believe he's getting a good rest
Tumblr media
Hope u enjoyed!!<33 I love yapping --- DO NOT STEAL/REPOST
[Wait the self-indulgent hcs were low key fun might make more lol]

so anki is the love of my life, and i'd like to discuss it re language learning.
spaced repetition systems in general
SRSs are helpful tools to prevent memory loss for specific facts. there's some criticism behind the specifics, but it's pretty safe to say that it's good to have a huge flashcard deck with relevant flashcards where you review the new-to-you stuff with relative immediacy and your already-reviewed stuff with relative distance.
flashcard model recommendations
go for a monolingual deck!!! if you absolutely can't, edit the flashcard to monolingual after you're vaguely familiar with the word!!! (i use wordreference - it's good but imperfect)
edited to add - a TL/NL vocab deck can be very efficient if languages are from the same family
i use a picture for the front unless the vocab word is too high concept, and using a picture would just be misleading/ineffectual.
i use soundclips about half the time - i pull clips from wiktionary, forvo, & the collins dictionary.
i use the fill-in-the-blank feature (cloze) pretty heavily with antonyms, and if i'm trying to remember specific usages of common words/phrases
i also use the fill-in-the-blank feature for chunking, altho i use this fairly rarely
i recommend 25 new words daily, or anything that'll set you for your regular pomodoro time for studying vocab (which is 25 mins for me).
i'm not at an advanced level yet for language learning, but this format is recommended for higher levels!
i lowkey recommend including example sentences on the backside, re chunking, but the utility really can depend on the vocab word
limitations
some limitations are a bit obvious - the quality of your study is 100% down to the quality of the flashcard (e.g. accuracy, relevancy, does it need more explanation for you to understand it)
it's also a hell of a time-suck to create these decks. i study 25 new cards a day, which means i have to create about two hundred flashcards every week. i make this quicker by having an ongoing list of words to add to my deck, instead of trying to look up vocab lists or whatever in the moment. i also do the whole week at once because i do get into the rhythm of dictionary-picture-audio searching while watching tv or whatever.
there are some fun add-ons (like for deadlines), and some complicated customization within anki itself. i usually just google if i have a question - a ton of people use anki, so there are tutorials for almost anything you want to do.
fluent forever
if you're unfamiliar, the fluent forever guy wrote a book about language learning which really hinges on a specific model of flashcard. he has tons of tutorial videos on his website, but basically he incorporates the phonetic alphabet, Google Images, and other relevant info for a vocab word (and grammar) in a flash card.
i think his flashcards take an unrealistic/unproductive amount of time, with a bunch of useless filler. however, i do recommend doing a quick read-through of his model and reasoning, as he might speak to something that you're struggling with. (for example, i've never struggled significantly with pronunciation so i think the IPA stuff is 100% useless.)
here's an integration to create the fluent forever flashcards much much faster. i don't use it but i've seen it recommended before.
outside of language learning!
i've used anki to learn for my work certification, for english vocab words from books i'm reading, and for titles of paintings that i want to remember forever. i wouldn't recommend shared decks for language learning, but i emphatically recommend them for other subjects!

Het Financieele Dagblad, page 7 adds:
The Israeli government is angry at Dutch outdoor advertising providers after refusing to run a campaign to draw attention to the fate of hostages still being held by Hamas in the Gaza Strip after nearly 100 days. The campaign was scheduled for Thursday, the day the International Court of Justice in The Hague began hearings in a case brought by South Africa against Israel over the Gaza conflict.
The Israeli government claimed in an official press release Thursday morning that more than 10 different billboard companies in the Randstad region had refused to carry out this campaign. One billboard company withdrew at the last minute, says Israel's Government Press Office.
'While working with one of the billboard companies, the language of the design and the message that would appear on the billboard were approved, but unexpectedly, at the time of placement, a message came from the billboard company that the ad had been cancelled,' the government claims. Which company was involved, the Israeli government would not disclose.
The public diplomacy branch of the Israeli government planned to launch the billboard campaign in the Randstad on Thursday, through its government advertising agency. It would be part of a number of information and public diplomacy initiatives surrounding the handling of South Africa's case against Israel at the International Court of Justice.
The billboards would show pictures and names of hostages, the fact that they are being held in the Gaza Strip and the caption: 'She/He cannot testify today'. 'This refusal is a serious affront to freedom of expression and a crude attempt to silence the voices of Israeli hostages. Their right to be heard is beyond any doubt,' Moriya Shalom, CEO of Israel's government advertising agency, said in a press release.
(David de Jong)
It seems that the advertising companies (and the general public) in NL does not stand with Itsnotreal despite their government.

What becomes of Lae’zel and Xan in nls? Do you have any tidbits on them? I got so excited to see them at Shadowheart’s birthday party
Aw I’m glad! 😊 Shadowheart got to play with Xan and develop more of that baby fever!!!
Lae’zel got the rough treatment from me bc I had really missed a huge chunk of her storyline on my first playthrough (hence the reason she’s in “law school” in Consonance 😅💀) Now that I know her well, she and Xan will be making more appearances!
She will 100% be a part of the angst-fest and plays a key role in the events that follow.
I also think it’ll be really fun to write a piece in which Lae’zel and Shadowheart bond over the struggles of motherhood, complete with their little menaces being best friends and a dynamic duo of terror 😈 maybe Xan and Jen get up to no good and get into some trouble.
My heart bleeds for Serena. (Arguably the only normal one around 😅)

Sparrow Things!! (New Life SMP)
Tumblr media
(art by @artmaverick998)
Finally posting something instead of just reblogging to talk about Sparrow, who is such a cool little fella!!! I stumbled across the New Life series via Owen so it’s unsurprising he’s my favorite character so far. I really missed watching Owen do lore, and I always enjoyed how much he always got into a character!!
Speaking of that, I’m like. 100% terrified and excited for Sparrow to meet Joel because that man is ALLERGIC to lore (/lh). Their interactions are probably going to be so fun to watch when they meet.
Scar and Sparrow would be such a fun pair to watch interact, considering they’re both pilots/aviators. They’d probably be a very endearing friendship, and I look forward to it so much!!!
I’m really interested to see what Owen does with Sparrow’s ‘locked(?)’ ability(s). I mean, we know that after each death in New Life, that player gets a new origin, and Sparrow is trying to evolve into a hybrid by talking to other hybrids. So, I wonder if Owen is able to choose a specific origin for lore purposes or if it’s totally random!! Sparrow gives a lot of, y’know, Elytrian/Avian vibes considering his name and flying, but I also don’t know the full list of origins. Also, I think it’d be funny if it was the opposite of a bird-like origin, like some kind of underground/cave-based origin.
I really hope Sparrow visits NL!Scott and NL!Gem again!! Their interactions were so cute and fun to watch and I absolutely love Sparrow’s cringefail loserboy swag energy when it comes to meeting the hybrids around.
Love you Sparrow 🫶 I hope your documentation goes well!!
