Hiccup the First's Capital City of the Wilderwest (HTTYD)

You know, I got to thinking:

We know that Grimbeard disliked being confined to Berk, viewing it as not a PROPER PLACE for a KING, so he built the Great City of Tomorrow.

But what was the place Hiccup the First and the other Kings made their capital? Was it Berk? Or was it the Mainland but then it later became Berk?

My headcanon was that after becoming King, Hiccup the First rallied his Tribe and routed the Uglithugs out of the Mainland, which had been the Hooligans' original home before they got kicked out by them just after Hiccup was born. And a plausible theory being that after Hiccup died, or even perhaps after his son's reign, the Uglithugs took the Mainland back, forcing later Kings to rule from Berk.

What do you guys think? Plausible?

Old Stuck-Up (My TTTE AU)

Ok, I know that in the RWS book called "James and the Diesel Engines" in 1984, the same year that the TVS, the G1 Transformers cartoon and also when a BR Class 46 diesel crashed into a nuclear flask, Old Stuck-Up is a BR Class 40 and is numbered "40125", but in my universe, he's a BR Class 55 and numbered "55007" also, he is still also one of the arrogant Mainland diesels A.K.A….. the Mainland Gits next to Diesel 261 "Bowler", Diesel 199 "Spamcan" and Diesel 6975 "Lumpy" also, he is really and very pompous, rude and arrogant like a lot of unfriendly diesels, and believes that steam power is inferior to diesel power while also being highly stubborn as he refused to go further into the shed where the steam engines rest. He soon made himself an enemy of the steam engines, particularly a pissed-off James who christened the nickname "Old Stuck-Up" and began his rant about diesels. BoCo, who was showing the diesel round, lost patience with him, the next day when he wakes up the next day, remembers he has to refuel and be cleaned. In the part of the shed where BoCo alongside Bear, Derek, Western and Goyle sleep is a cleaning stop. The diesel decides to use it, but goes forward too quickly, slips on the oily tracks the 5 diesels stood and crashes into the back of the shed. After a stern talking to by the Fat Controller for insulting the North Western Railway, the diesel then goes home in disgrace, never to return

i don't have the book but this YouTube have it covered up and woah what a interesting story (i must say so myself) i hope someday they're making the movie version of it i don't mind if her friends barely appear for once because the story takes place on the mainland and it's based on the canceled 7th Tinkerbell movie the Tinker academy really suit Tinkerbell and i think most of us can agree because she want to learn something new but everybody (except maybe Terence) are skeptical about Tinkerbell learning new things and we all know Tinkerbell will do ridiculous things and break the rules to make herself feel better and bring others in danger atleast she can't cause disasters in pixie hollow, instead it's on the mainland with other Tinker fairies she get to meet and based on what its shared, they are all mainland fairies, i think shopping fairies are mentioned and a fairy (forgot the name) losing her voice reminds me of Ariel from the little mermaid and Musa from Winx Club because they have the music element and i'm guessing this new fairy who lost her voice is kind of like a music fairy, apparently shadow fairies and dreamer fairies exist too apparently fairies on the mainland use pixie dust for other things instead of flying, most of them doesn't like neverland fairies except for a few and woah it has a King who also happens to be a TINKER FAIRY?!?! holy cow and apparently he knows Queen Clarion and Lord Milori and it seems like they all know Tinker fairies aren't allowed to go on the mainland but Tinkerbell tells them things have changed since she's born i wonder if Tinkerbell brings new friends to pixie hollow since she was making a few apparently Tinkerbell is trapped in some sort of jail untill the King and the others saves her while they got the key Tinkerbell was looking for if Disney decides to continues with the Tinkerbell movies, i hope for sure they are making the movies version of this before the book came out i saw a few videos based on the scrapped movie that was supposed to take place after "The Legend Of The Neverbeast" i hope they keeps a few of them atleast, like Fairy Mary who got accepted to go to the Tinker academy but once Tinkerbell was born she changed her mind and stayed in pixie hollow, the flashback of Tinkerbell being born with its brightest talent (even brighter then Vidia) okay i was curious about The Secret Of The Wings with its history about Queen Clarion and Lord Milori but now i'm even more curious about their past with the King getting involved when pixie hollow was very young, i mean what happened they all decided to split up? we know so little about the warm and the cold season but we don't know a single thing about the mainland fairies little did i know though since the first movie came out, there must be fairies around who never reached pixie hollow but instead arrived to where they all are and like something prevents them from having their talent untill the necklace is broken (we have a villain who's a dust-keeper fairy on the mainland which happens to be the mainland fairy who like try to ruin Tink's life, Maddox was his name?) i visited the wiki fandom and it seems to me like each of Tink's friends appeared briefly EXCEPT TERENCE?!?! (i looked at the cast roles but other then Clank and Bobble all the others only appeared briefly in which i don't mind for a change) he's one of Tink's best friend, they are infact each others best fairy friends, they exclude him again and in the cast Fairy Mary and Queen Clarion aren't even there but i think they should appear in the book even if it's just briefly, at the start and the end of the book i hope they do a little change to also make Fairy Mary, Queen Clarion and Terence appear once Disney decides to create the movie version of it (Zarina and Periwinkle appears in the cast)

my theory on the mainland fairies are they like started good untill things got out of hand stuff on the mainland clashed with the stuff on the neverland and with the things getting out of hand they decides they should never ever visit each others places (kinda like "The Secret Of The Wings" how they should never ever sees each other again after Lord Milori broke his wing so the 2 worlds get seperated but that's untill Tinkerbell crossing the border have changed everything)

That one scene in TGR:

Thomas: *Tries to get to Gordon*

Emily: Thomas? What are you doing here?

James: Thomas? Hi!

So in my opinion Emily was being rude, it's only kind to say hello if you see a friend from Sodor.

Benefits of Starting a Home-Based Business in Dubai

The Benefits of Starting a Home-Based Business in Dubai

Starting a home-based business in Dubai offers several advantages that can be beneficial for entrepreneurs. Here are some key benefits of starting a home-based business in Dubai:

Cost Savings: Operating a business from home eliminates the need for leasing or purchasing commercial space, which can significantly reduce overhead costs. You can save on expenses such as rent, utility bills, and commuting costs, allowing you to allocate more resources towards business growth and development.

Flexibility: Running a home-based business provides flexibility in terms of working hours and work-life balance. You have the freedom to set your own schedule and work at your own pace. This flexibility is especially valuable for individuals with personal commitments or those who prefer a more flexible working environment.

Convenience: Operating from home eliminates the need for a daily commute, saving you time and reducing stress. You have the convenience of working in a comfortable and familiar environment, with all the necessary tools and resources at your fingertips. This can enhance productivity and overall job satisfaction.

Reduced Risks: Starting a home-based business allows you to test your business idea with minimal risk. Since you don't have the financial burden of leasing a commercial space, you can experiment, refine your offerings, and assess market demand before scaling up. This mitigates the risk of investing significant capital upfront.

Lower Regulatory Requirements: Home-based businesses in Dubai generally have fewer regulatory requirements compared to businesses with physical locations. This simplifies the setup process and reduces administrative tasks, allowing you to focus more on your core business activities.

Tax Benefits: Depending on the nature of your home-based business, you may be eligible for certain tax benefits or exemptions. Consult with a tax advisor to understand the specific tax advantages available to home-based businesses in Dubai.

Enhanced Work-Life Balance: Working from home allows you to strike a better balance between your personal and professional life. You can save time on commuting, have more flexibility in managing family commitments, and enjoy a better quality of life. This can lead to higher job satisfaction and overall well-being.

Global Reach: With advancements in technology and the internet, home-based businesses in Dubai can easily reach a global customer base. You can leverage digital platforms, social media, and e-commerce tools to market and sell your products or services to customers worldwide, expanding your business opportunities.

Scalability: Starting as a home-based business provides a solid foundation for future growth. As your business expands and generates revenue, you can consider scaling up by transitioning to a dedicated commercial space or exploring additional business avenues while maintaining the advantages of a home-based setup.

It's important to note that starting a home-based business still requires careful planning, determination, and adherence to legal and regulatory requirements. Conduct thorough market research, develop a solid business plan, and seek professional advice to ensure your home-based business in Dubai is set up for success.
