Look at this Goku kitty! Look at it! It’s pretty cute! It’s also the first Dragon Ball kitty made by Plushshop, who specialize in making different cartoon/anime/game characters into kitty plushies.

It took forever, but they’re finally doing Dragon Ball, so I thought I’d share. I’m seriously, seriously hoping they’ll do lots of characters - including Frieza, Cell, and Zamasu.

I’d like Frost too, but….he’s just not that popular, so I’m not holding onto hope for that 🥲

Anyway, that’s all. Just wanted to share (I’ll likely share more as they’re released). If anyone wants this Goku kitty, I’ll leave a link for you to check out.

The Lion of Mari, from Syria (Mesopotamia) c.1782-1759 BCE: this is one of two lion statues that once guarded the entrance to a temple in ancient Mari; the lions were partially crushed when Hammurabi laid waste to the city in 1759 BCE

That's a pretty fitting expression, given the circumstances

Together, the two lion statues that were found at the ruined temple are known as the "Lions of Mari." They were unearthed from the ruins at Tell Hariri, where the ancient city-state of Mari once stood; this site is located near the border between modern-day Syria and Iraq.

The lions were likely designed as protomes, given their lack of hindquarters. They were originally stationed on either side of the entrance to the temple, so they are often described as the "temple guardians."

This is the same statue that appears in the first three photos, just seen from a different angle

It's believed that the temple at this site was originally built in honor of a West Semitic deity known as Dagan. Dagan was the chief deity of the Mariote pantheon; he was a particularly prominent figure in the middle and upper regions of the Euphrates, with cult centers in Mari, Terqa, Tuttul, and Ebla, but he was known throughout many parts of the ancient Near East.

The lion is primarily made of copper, with limestone and shale inlay for the eyes, and it measures 53cm tall, 77.5cm long, and 43cm wide, weighing roughly 55kg (about 21in x 30.5in x 17in, with a weight of 121lbs)

The Lions of Mari were partially crushed when their temple was destroyed (along with the rest of Mari) by Hammurabi's forces in 1759 BCE, leaving the statues badly warped...which is why they look really upset.

It's hard to find high-quality photos of the second lion, but he does have a particularly distinctive appearance:

This second lion was most recently housed at the National Museum of Aleppo, in Syria, though its current location/status (in the aftermath of the Syrian Civil War) remains unclear.

These photographs were taken during the original excavations at the ruined temple; they depict the first lion statue as it was still being unearthed (top) and the second statue shortly after it was removed (bottom)

hello! hope you're doing well, i was wondering if you had any recommendations from where/how/etc to buy Faux Fur tails? such as a fox or coyote tail out of faux fur. i've tried looking but it's not going too well. any tips appreciated!

i recommend yarn, cosplay, or fursuit tail commissions on Etsy! i got my tail from this seller & i am very happy with it. of course realism is limited by price & the abilities of the maker/materials but for my personal needs it has been satisfactory :]
