The them, the lil fellas, now in coffee shop AU C:
Some ✨lore✨ under the cut
Minilla was adopted by Gojira when Minya was a baby still. He wishes he could hang out around his dad more often. Minya likes to "help" his father cook on weekends tho (when Goji gets everything done so Biollante can just heat up their food) and watch Masterchef.
Suko was abandoned when he was a toddler and has little to no memory of how his mother looked like, but still has some hope of finding his parents again. He really look out to when Kong visits the orphanage and he sees him nearly as a hero. Besides Kong, he's very close the orphanage's old janitor, Joshua (Gnarled Fingers).
He's eventually adopted by Kong and Goji and he thinks Goji's scars are the coolest thing ever.

Can southern Brazil’s deadly floods spur the shift to green energy?
Months after devastating rains displaced 420,000 people in Rio Grande do Sul, an unusual consensus has formed around the need for a faster transition to renewables

Beside a narrow canal that runs through the outskirts of Porto Alegre in southern Brazil, a row of wooden houses with makeshift fences lean among piles of debris and power poles tangled in sagging wires. From the dirt road, Alexandra Marina Romero, 27, gazes at the aftermath of a disaster. “There used to be a church here,” she says. “Now it’s all gone.”
In May, a devastating flood ravaged her neighbourhood, leaving a trail of chaos and triggering a humanitarian crisis. “What we went through was horrific. The water took over everything,” says Romero, a supermarket assistant who migrated to Brazil from Venezuela in 2018.
She lost all of her possessions in the disaster and now fears moving again in search of a safer home. “I cried a lot. Sometimes I fear a new flood. It’s something we would never have imagined happening,” Romero says.
In the past year, Brazil’s southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul has faced one of the worst environmental catastrophes in Brazil’s recent history. A series of unprecedented floods affected more than 2 million people in 95% of its municipalities and displaced more than 420,000, according to the UN’s refugee agency, UNHCR.
In the worst incident last May, 183 people died, 27 are still missing and 806 were injured. Many residents lost their houses entirely as streets turned into rivers. Six months later, nearly 1,800 people are still unable to return home, and are living in 40 shelters in 23 different cities, the UNHCR says.
The floods may have cost the Brazilian economy 97bn reais (£13bn), with damages of R$58bn just in Rio Grande do Sul.
As the effects of the climate crisis are increasingly felt in South America, state authorities are urgently seeking to adapt and mitigate the risks of floods and extreme weather events in a region where the number of days of extreme rainfall has more than doubled since the 1960s.

So, the post by @weirdthoughtsandideas made me think about what it would look like if dcla shows were set in Brazil
So, for Violetta, we’ll start with the studio, it’s obviously not a school or a college, so what is it? Well, here, the closest thing to it would be a performing arts academy, but it doesn’t count as a formal education, so to have a high school diploma, they’d have to go to an actual school too. Now, onto the characters and where they’re from, we’ll start with the one that’s actually from here, Broduey is an awful, awful stereotype, but if I had to say a state, I’d go with Amazonas, Marco, Naty and Andrés are all from São Paulo, Maxi is from Rio, Diego, Vilu, Ludmila and Fede are all from the south, Fede is from Paraná, Vilu from Santa Catarina, and Diego and Ludmila from Rio Grande do Sul, Cami is also from Bahia, Leon and Fran from Distrito Federal. Moving on to more general points, since I don’t think homeschooling is a thing around here, and if it were here, he’d probably move around the country, because it is huge, he’d probably just move her from private school to private school, since public schools are severely underfunded, and the studio is probably in São Paulo, because that is the only place where a bunch of kids from different states would move to go to school in, aside from that, not many changes
As for SL, since it would be the same country, I imagine it would a little harder for Roberto to flee with a toddler from a famously wealthy family. Sharon would probably fail the psychosocial evaluation necessary if she wanted to adopt Ámbar here, but then again, she probably did it illegally in the first place, anyways, differently from Violetta, SL would probably be set either on the north, or, more likely, specially because the number of rich kids, on the south, and it would be almost impossible for them to skate on the street, outside the paths built for that kind of thing, because sidewalks are all awful, but it would be easier on Paraná, specifically the capital, Curitiba, because they have better infrastructure for that there, moving on to Blake, now, most of the structure wouldn’t change, except school uniforms for any private school in the country, are literally just shirts, so there’s that, also, back then they wouldn’t have electives like the ones in S1, since that only started being put in school curriculums the last couple of years, besides those small things, everything is pretty much the same. And now where everyone’s from, this time, mostly sticking with the groups that are from the same places, Luna and Simón are from Pernambuco, Emilia is from Maranhão, same region, different states, Jazmin, Delfi, Yam, Nina, Nico and Pedro are all from São Paulo, Ámbar is from Paraná, Gastón and Jim are from Santa Catarina, Matteo from Distrito Federal and Ramiro from Rio, the Blake kids (except Ámbar and Luna), moved due to the notoriety of the school, that remains the same as in the show, Nico and Pedro went looking for job opportunities, and Simón and Emilia moved for the canon reasons, and lastly, it is highly possible to have a place like roller in Curitiba, the culture of the city definitely suits it
#violetta#soy luna#this turned into me rambling about a bunch of different details about cultures around the country lol#but if anyone wants to know more details about everyone’s home states#I got a bunch of stuff#I just really love ranting about how cool my country is#didn’t do Bia because half the characters are brazilian already so it felt pointless#anyways#didn’t want to mention it up there#but insufferable Gery is from São Paulo#Clement is from Rio Grande do Sul#and Benicio and Eric are also from São Paulo

For the ones who don't know exactly what is going on. The situation is fucking calamity.
People are waiting for rescue in the rooftops, most of the rescue isn't even done by the authorities, but by local civilians who happen to own a jetski, kayaks or a little beach boat. The dead are being tied to trees or posts so they will be found when the water finally goes down!
The water reached the 2nd floor in parts of the capital and some parts are electrified because of the chaos with the wires. Oh and the water is not only from the rivers, but also(mostly) from the sewers because they couldn't lead to the overflowing river!
Even the few dry places in the cities have no stable power or water (if they have it at all), which is leading to a wave of robbery and violence because without power, we don't have any security. the building gates are electric, we also counted on electric fences etc. (Plus, the criminals are counting with the fact that the police is a little too busy helping people not to drown)
The fucking shelters are not really safe. People are doing what they can to help and donate but there's only so much they can do with most of the roads blocked from the rain, landslides or fallen bridges, plus we are dealing with empty shelved on the supermarkets, that includes the water shelves! No drinkable water. This is gonna kill many more.
Oh and the river that overflowed in the capital, Guaíba... It had alligators happily living in it! The poor fellas woke up one day in the middle of the avenue and now they're swimming around the streets. Not their fault but they _are_ an extra safety hazzard!
And this is only what I know from the capital! other cities are completely gone, their situation is 100 times worse!
I don't even know where I'm going with this, just... Donate if you can, but more importantly, please spread awareness!
this is important. please share
i apologize for my english. i'm (south) brazilian, it's not my first language.
Right now, in south Brazil, most in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, there are many floods happening. really bad ones.
Entire cities are basically underwater. Cities like Lageado, the state capital Porto Alegre, Canoas. Over 30 thousand people are displaced because their homes have been destroyed. Many more families have been affected.

this is the city of Lageado before and after the floods.


Please donate if you can!
this is the link for international donations, as most of people here are not brazilian.
link pra brasileiros doearem, pode ser por pix (link for brazilians)
if you can't donate, please share!
by the way, similar things happened last year in south brazil. my city had floods. this is a direct result of climate change. please, please bring attention to this.
#I fled the capital two days ago with my girlfriend and my cat. We payed 400 reais for a trip that would normally cost less than 50#and we are lucky we could get out at all!!#the roads on the shore are linda okay-ish so we're taking those to flee to the neighbour state#our families live there#Brazil#Rio Grande do Sul#Brasil#climate change#donation links#climate action

Endangered Species Sightings from This Year
This is thought to be the first time in over 20 years that a blue whale was spotted off the Coast of Massachusetts.
I highly recommend watching the video and listening to the reaction of the people on the whale watching boat--the cheers and emotion in some of their voices, especially the woman saying "I'm trying not to" when someone jokingly tells her not to cry.
This is the first time ever that a mother clouded leopard with two cubs has been spotted on a game cam!
"After being considered regionally extinct for over a century, giant anteaters have been spotted roaming once again in Brazil's Rio Grande do Sul state. Scientists have concluded these returned natives ventured over from Argentina's Ibera Park, where conservationists have released around 110 rescued and captive-bred anteaters since 2007."
Over 100 years and the anteaters are finally coming home!

Hello everyone,
Brazil is underwater, and we come here asking you for your help.
As some of you may know, the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) has been getting torrential rains since last Monday (29/04/24).
In four days, it has rained 436,2 millimeters (17,2 inches), which’s triple the normal amount in a month, which is 140 millimeters (5,5 inches)
More than two great rivers in our region had their volume duplicated, or sometimes, triplicated in size.
This means all the cities that are close to these rivers ended up completely underwater
There were more than 110 towns flooded and the estimate is that more than half a million people have been affected by this climate disaster. There are also thousands of people who are arriving in my city (the state capital, Porto Alegre) as climate refugees, coming from communities displaced by the floods.
Through this unprecedented tragedy we have been really happy to see entire communities mobilizing to help others. Still, there are people who have lost everything, especially those in marginalized communities living in precarious, unsafe and unsanitary housing.
That’s where you come in. We need money. Money to buy food, clothes, medicine, basic hygiene products, mattresses so that refugees have a place to sleep, basically everything.
Right now, the biggest demand is drinkable water: my city is almost completely out of water, because the water treatment stations have been flooded.
We understand that you may be able to give very little, but also what is little to you means A Lot more to us. Just a dollar is enough to buy 5 liters of fresh water.
Here are the links for international donations:
(these donations are managed by people I know and trust. if you can, donate to them and not the government, but I’ll include that below as well. we don't trust the government to do anything right now, basically)
This is another option:
Government donations:
And here is some international news coverage of what’s happening:
PLEASE share and donate anything you can. Everything is greatly appreciated.

hey guys! I know that this blog isn't about anything other than the celebrities and characters that I write for and read about, but I need to ask for some little help right now...
as some of you already know, I'm from Brazil, and a state from my country is announced to be in public disaster. it's been raining A LOT (more than usual) for days without stopping, and the force of it is causing dams to brake, all of them, which is causing extreme floods
right now, we have at least 10 WHOLE cities under complete water, at least 100 d3aths, more than 200 hurt, and we lost count on the missing people
more than 7 bridges broke, which is preventing people from evacuating, despite government requests. many are without water, electricity, internet, and food
the entire country is mobilizing, firefighters and soldiers from all states are going there to help, people are sending money to NGOs of anything that can help, or sending basic products (non-perishable food, clothing, etc.) to military posts across the country, but despite all this, I just wanted to ask you to pray for us and send positive energy! we really need it right now
we have never been through anything like this since Brazil is a country that is less likely to experience disasters like that, which is making everything more difficult, as we were not prepared...
FOR THOSE THAT ARE BRAZILIAN!: starting tomorrow, all post offices in SP and PR will receive donations of basic items for FREE and will take them to Rio Grande do Sul!!! if you can't send money, but can send some clothes, non-perishable food or hygiene itens, please check which post office in your city will do this work!!!!
I also have info of secure PIX you can send money or places you can send itens. if you want to know more, just ask through the comments
we just hope it will all end soon ;( thank you!

Donate to victims of Brazil floods from abroad

Brazil’s southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul, a state the size of Ecuador, has been devastated by historic floods, with most of its 497 municipalities in a state of public calamity. Authorities have described the crisis as “war-like” and consider it the state’s worst crisis caused by natural disasters ever.
Roughly 200,000 people were forced out of their homes, according to state officials. The death toll, which has been growing fast, is inching closer to the mark of 100 — and there are still more than 130 people missing.
A series of public and private initiatives are collecting donations in order to mitigate the devastating effects of the crisis. Post offices in the states of São Paulo and Paraná, as well as some in Rio Grande do Sul, for example, offered to collect and transport donations free of charge.
