Another year has passed, and with it the opportunity to reflect back on all that has happened. While my growth was not as dramatic as last year, I can still see lots of positive change.

I'll never have enough ways to say thank you for all the love and support you have given me this year. On to 2025!

(2023 summary here!)

Coronation drinking game:

Take a drink every time you see a stupid hat, a celebrity, or sausage fingers.

Finish your drink every time you see a protestor being arrested or an egg hits Charles.

Ten minutes into watching the pomp and faff and I'm already feeling tipsy - double points for Katy Perry who is both a celebrity and in a stupid hat

For the record the multiple people I've seen disappointed that March FOM wasn't a butch girl should go play Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life and romance Nami

Hello everyone, first of all I want to wish all Canadians and Americans a happy independence day! Yes, it's July 1st for Canada and July 4th for Americans.

I would also say this for anyone who is interested. I want to organize something of my own. On the occasion of one year on Tumblr, on July 20th, I am organizing Moon Landing Day on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of the first man walking on the Moon. It's a very important day for me, and a special one because I'm a space travel enthusiast myself. So everyone who is interested can draw some drawing, some video and photoshop and write fanfiction related to your favorite characters from cartoons, series, movies, video games, literature and other works. Just one topic, but it has to be:

• Must be related to traveling to the moon and Moon Landing. The moon and the stars must be included.

• That one or more characters wear spacesuits. Feel free to invent your version of the space suits you want.

• And no NSFW or any fetishes, pedophilia, zoophilia and incest and other nastiness, please, because that's disgusting. Otherwise, if you do, I'll block you.

• OC and OCs may be included.

• Tag me with my blog name so I know as I am the organizer of this contest as @ducksinspaceadventure

And this is just for fun and all you space travel lovers out there. 😄

Also this may apply to you Duckblr and DuckTales reboot fans as I am a fan of that great series myself. You are also welcome to this. Just follow these rules and feel free to have fun. 😊 If there are any doubts, feel free to ask me.

See you on July 20. And happy independence day! 😁

it's...missing smackjeeves hours..

telling myself if no one makes a good alternative for smackjeeves in the next like five years, im gonna start making one myself (only 10% serious)

i just miss like that atmosphere of 100% unmarketable, just comic sharing/making space.

where we all knew that 99% of the time the comics we see will never get finished bc ppl get busy, kids grow up and change interests ,etc. (i mention kids bc most of my memories of smackjeeves was when i was a teen, so it was a significant like developmental years as an artist kind experience for me)

like i remember most of the comics were like

barely legible sketch pages with like text written in mspaint.

there was absolutely no quality standard. and that's why it was so good

it made me as a kid feel like oh i can do comics! cause it can be WHATEVER YOU WANTED IT TO BE AND LOOK HOWEVER WAY.

and the collaborative ones on smackjeeves were so fun to look at

just overall.

having that. rough, crude, unmarketable space for art/comics was significant.

How successful would Steve Rogers (Captain America)…

[jisreal64]

So, I figured that since I was going to spend the Fourth of July at my beach place, I figured that I would do something different and wave two flags, one that honors America and one that honors the beach and the ocean, albeit in a non traditional way:

Personally, I think this would have made the Kenway family proud 😉

you think that if they got boarded by an alien like a Martian or some shit on the Tulpar they'd like make friends or the alien would see how messy they are and be like "You know what fuck this im out, gleep glorp or whatever you want me to say."

It's Reaping Day! May the odds be ever in your favor.

Do you think it’s significant that the Reaping is on USA's Independence Day? Why do you think Suzanne Collins choose this date?

Do you think Reaping of 74th Hunger Games is rigged? Yes/No? Why?

If the Reaping could be rigged. Who do you think participate in this process?

Thank you.

May the odds be ever in your favor, anon!

I think it's significant in that Suzanne Collins wanted to underline the Capitol and the Hunger Games as a critique of the US. In universe, I'm unsure what their justification would be in-universe. I do imagine that US culture still has an influence on Panem since its citizens are likely descendants of survivors of some apocalyptic event. Perhaps, the significance of July 4 was passed down to the Capitol. Or maybe, the First Rebellion ended at a time where it was perfect to have a Reaping on July 4? Maybe it was coincidentally when the Treaty of Treason was signed (but would that mean there was no Hunger Games that year or a later Reaping. I think there was one that year but I would have to do math.) Maybe, the Treaty of Treason was signed June 28th and the Reapings could happen on July 4th.

Do I think the 74th Hunger Games is rigged? No. I think that Prim getting reaped was just bad luck, and I don't really see a reason why anyone would rig it that way! I think I've seen someone purpose that it was rigged because Katniss was sneaking into the woods, but that's like a tacit part of life in Twelve. They need extra sustenance to be functional and as long as they aren't thriving, I imagine that the Capitol/Peacekeepers could let it go (as long as she isn't blatantly flaunting her lawbreaking). Also if the Capitol wanted to punish her for that, they could just shoot her.

While Snow does fixate on things, I think he's actively trying to to think to much about that time period in TBoSaS. I imagine he only starts paying special attention to Twelve when Katniss and Peeta come to the Capitol and make a fuss in the Games.

There's a chance that rebels could have rigged the Reaping to get their symbol, but like... there's no reason for the rebels to choose Katniss (or Prim who is the one actually reaped). <- I'm just writing this to lay out all the options.

I think Reapings being rigged was more likely during the earlier Games (see this happening to Lucy Gray), but once the Games become more popular, the Capitol probably put in measures to help stop that. (Capitol Escorts drawing names for later Games probably helps because they have no reason to lie about who they drew since they in theory don't really know any one in the Districts).

thanks for the ask, anon!
