Throwback/Fun Fact from Orange Cassidy: In an old interview, Orange explains when he had broken his arm and had two metal plates put in, one of them got infected and he kept it and it's back at his house. He still has the other metal plate in his arm on the other side. On the Left photo he's showing where the infected plate was On the Middle photo he shows where he has a metal plate in that arm On the Right photo he shows how big the metal plate size is/was

Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians.

Custom championship belts

Custom championship belts have become an integral part of professional wrestling culture, serving as a tangible symbol of a wrestler's achievements and legacy. While traditional championship belts are often provided by promotions, custom championship belts allow wrestlers to create a personalized championship title that reflects their personality, style, and accomplishments.

The History of Championship Belts in Wrestling

Championship belts have been a fixture of professional wrestling for over a century, with the first recognized wrestling championship dating back to the 1880s. In the early days of wrestling, championship belts were often handmade and passed down from wrestler to wrestler. As wrestling grew in popularity and became more organized, promotions began creating their own championship belts to signify their top titles.

Over time, championship belts became more elaborate and ornate, with larger plates and more intricate designs. The most iconic championship belt in wrestling history is arguably the WWE Championship belt, which has undergone several design changes over the years but remains a symbol of excellence in the wrestling world.

The Rise of Custom Championship Belts

While traditional championship belts remain an important part of wrestling culture, custom championship belts have become increasingly popular in recent years. With the rise of independent wrestling promotions and social media, wrestlers are looking for ways to stand out and create a unique identity. Custom championship belts allow wrestlers to showcase their individuality and accomplishments in a way that traditional belts cannot.

Custom championship belts are typically designed and created by specialized companies that work with wrestlers to bring their vision to life. The design process involves choosing the size and shape of the plates, selecting materials for the strap and any additional embellishments, and incorporating any custom logos or artwork. The end result is a championship belt that is truly one-of-a-kind and reflects the wrestler's personality and accomplishments.

The Benefits of Custom Championship Belts

Custom championship belts offer several benefits over traditional belts. First and foremost, they allow wrestlers to create a unique identity and stand out in a crowded marketplace. Custom belts can also help increase a wrestler's visibility and social media presence, as fans are more likely to share photos and videos of a unique and personalized championship title.

Custom belts also offer a way to honor a wrestler's accomplishments in a more meaningful way. While traditional championship belts are often handed out as part of a storyline, custom belts are a tangible symbol of a wrestler's achievements and can be passed down as a legacy to future generations.

The Design and Creation of Custom Championship Belts

The design and creation of a custom championship belt is a complex process that requires careful consideration of many factors. The first step is to choose a company that specializes in custom championship belts and work with them to develop a design concept. This may involve creating sketches or 3D models to ensure that the design is feasible and visually appealing.

Once the design concept is finalized, the company will begin the process of creating the belt. This typically involves creating metal plates that are etched or engraved with the design, as well as crafting a leather strap to hold the plates together. Additional embellishments such as jewels, faux fur, or LED lights may also be added, depending on the wrestler's preferences.

The Cost of Custom Championship Belts

Custom championship belts can be expensive, with prices ranging from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on the complexity of the design and materials used. However, the investment is often worth it for wrestlers and promotions looking to create a lasting impression and elevate the prestige of their championships.

The Future of Custom Championship Belts

Custom championship belts are not a new concept, but they have become increasingly popular in recent years. As technology advances and new materials become available, the possibilities for custom championship belts will only continue to grow. Custom belts may even become a standard feature of wrestling championships, with wrestlers and promotions alike recognizing the value of creating a unique and personalized championship title.

You read about Ty Cobb and hear he was a total dickhead on the field and you're like "Alright, how much of that is him being a competitor and how much is just genuine assholishness." And then you see pictures like this

How to deal with a terrible breakup? Easy! You don't. Everything is okay in the fantasy sitcom suburb land where you control everything ever.

Silly goofy au hours. More crack than serious, but I enjoy it. I worry the three(3) episodes of Wandavision I watched and a Don't Worry Darling plot synopsis changed my neuron pathing for the worst.

Was gonna wait to post this outside of ko-fi until I posted the corresponding part of my fic BUT since that's on hold for a hot second I might as well do it now!

So much yapping under the cut because I can't help myself lol (Mostly just a stream of consciousness, so its kind of a word salad)

I like to think that colors can change in brightness, mix with others, and appear in certain areas/patterns to give a bit of complexity to the use of colors for communication.

Top left is pretty straightforward- yellow is fear. It's the full body "puffed up cat" kind of fear where it's the ony emotion being processed. A lingering anxiousness would be shown more like a general yellow centered around the chest, while the rest of their body remains the same color. Feelings like a slight nervousness (Like handling a delicate object with big crab-claws, for example) would be shown through a "rippling" wave of yellow overtop of whatever colors are already present, originating from the chest or hands. ((link) this is pretty close to what I imagine (If the link doesn't work, skip to about 2:10) Spooky ocean warning! though if you're seeing this post in the first place I assume you're probably fine with it )

Green is analytical - He does this a few times in-game, and it's what makes the most sense to me. I also like to think it's the reasoning behind a lot of the Architect's... well, architecture. Green is a really predominant color in all of the architect structures / data hubs / machines / etc., so in cultural sense it would make sense for the Architects to be using the color representing their core values. The light blue around his sides is amusement/joy. (I put a little bit of this into my first chapter iirc) This is also based pretty closely to what we see in-game. (I.e. the little wave he does back at Robin, it's silly and playful and I love it sm)

The gray/dull tones (bottom left) are just that- the "muting/dulling" of whatever color it's applied to. The Architect who kind of killed his entire species is a little depressed if you can believe it! A muted blue (indigo, rather than light blue) would be melancholy, and the yellow tint in there is stress/dread. A completely dim gray Architect is basically completely numb, which is distinct from the typical "resting color" that Architects have when not feeling any emotion in particular at a given moment.

Dark blue (Or indigo, bottom right) is sadness. It could also be read as a sense of longing or wistfulnes, or a lot of other nuanced feelings depending on other colors or context clues.

And of course magenta (bottom middle) and that coral-ish color are love, more or less. It's a sense of fondness and deep affection, though Al-an himself is probably under the impression it's more like a loyalty and protectiveness; I don't think he has any real experience with love considering what we know about the network.

The coral color in the center of his chest is something I'll dive into more when I get that chapter out, but I think of it as a flush/heat, like an Architect blush. Orange is added to colors to increase the intensity of the emotion underneath, such as the inclusion with magenta to mean flustered or to red to mean a more heated rage. An embarassed architect would be fully orange, possibly leaning a bit towards pink, red or yellow depending on the specific situation.

For an "emotionless peak of innovation and efficiency" I am determined to shove SO many feelings into this shrimp horse. This stream of word spaghetti will eventually get rewritten into a basic color code.
