#Wonder how that came about!

「快啲講畀我聽啦！做咩事啫？」

“Oh c'mon hurry up and tell me! What is it?”

「唔好啦！你遲啲會知㗎啦！」

“Nah! You'll find out eventually anyway!”

「你好衰㗎！你快啲講啦！而家勾起我條根！快啲講呀！搵我咩事啫？」

“You suck! Got my curiosity aroused and not telling me now?! Hurry up and say it already! What did you look me up for?”

「話畀你聽啦！」 「你拍戲呀？」

“All right I'll tell you!” “You're filming something?”

「知唔知呀，有間模特兒公司呢，搵我拍廣告喔！」

“Did you know, a modelling agency has looked me up to film an advertisement!”

「模特兒公司？唉呀！你小心啲呀！香港呢，好多模特兒公司都係呃人㗎！」

“Modelling agency? Hey! You better be wary! Here in Hong Kong, there are lots of modelling agencies that turn out to be scams!”

「邊個介紹你㗎？」 “Who recommended you?”

「冇呀，我行下街轉下身畀一個星探發現。」

“No one, I was just walking around on the streets and got scouted by a talent agent.”

「星探？佢係咪話畀你聽，你好有 ‘camera face’ (‘開麥拉’面孔)，有個廣告好啱你拍呀？」

“Talent agent? Did they tell you, you have a great ‘camera face’, and you're most suited for one of their ads?”

「係呀！嘩！我幾開心呀！佢同我講話我有氣質呀！」

“That's right! Wow! I was so happy! They told me I had a quality about me!”

「噉佢係咪跟住之後呢就叫你入佢嗰間公司跟你交啲乜嘢費乜嘢費噉樣啊？」

“So did they also have you follow them back to their company to pay for so-and-so fees?”

「我真係錢都畀晒啦！頭先…」

“I did pay for everything already!”

「你畀人呃咗啦！」 「點會啫？」

“You've been had!” “How can that be?”

「你唔睇得咪係聽日同我一齊去囉！」

“If you don't believe me, come with me (to the company) tomorrow!”

「好呀！」 “Sure!”

第二日… (The next day…)

「CID (警察) 呀！」 “Hey it's the police!”

「呢間模特兒公司嘅老闆呢，已經走路㗎啦！」

“This modelling agency's boss has fled!”

「睇你嘅樣…都似讀過書嘅，咁舊個橋你都信嘅？有冇搞錯呀！」

“Looking at you, you seem the well-educated sort, how could you fall for one of the oldest tricks in the book? What's the matter with you!”

「我唔想笑嘅…」 “It's not that I want to laugh…”

新詞：勾起條根 (ngau1 hei2 tiu4 gan1) ～ a variation of 挑起條根，開麥拉 (hoi1 mak6 laai1) ～ transliteration of ‘camera’，橋 (kiu2) ～ in this instance it means ‘idea’, or ‘trick’.

…

There are no more heroes.

Well, okay. Rewind a bit.

Danny has been doing the hero thing for a while now. He’s had a big reveal; everyone has accepted him (including his parents), the GIW disbanded, the Anti-Ecto acts repealed, and generally, everything is going great. Some of the A-Listers are even training as junior ghost hunters to help give him a break from his rogues! (Being Ghost King makes things hectic sometimes, and he just needs the extra help. Sue him!)

The point is, literally nothing is wrong with Danny Phantom’s afterlife.

And then Valerie Gray, the Red Huntress, disappears in front of his eyes.

Danny is baffled! She’s just…gone! Valerie just popped out of existence, like she was never there. But no matter how hard he searches in the Ghost Zone, he can’t find her soul anywhere. His core isn't broken in grief. So she’s not dead. Which is good. So then, where is she?

Some of the others come forward with ideas on how to find her. A few ghosts volunteer to go out into the mortal realm, an area Danny had declared off-limits, to see if she was out there. Danny approves it. He rounds up some of the friendlier (i.e., discreet) ghosts and Amity Parkers and demolishes the outside travel ban.

So everyone spreads out, looking for their dear frenemy and teammate. But it becomes apparent very quickly that something is wrong with the rest of the world.

There are no more heroes.

Every single living superhero on the face of the Earth has just…vanished. Villains are running amok; the countries are in chaos! Some aliens are invading Earth, mythical deities are trying to take over, and society is crumbling to the ground. Everything is on the brink of collapse.

Well, Danny was still there. And so were his people. They were pretty spread out, so could they just…take up the mantles? He also knew where to find the souls of dead heroes in the Zone; surely they wouldn't mind coming out of retirement for a little bit, especially if they couldn't die again. Oh! And that skeleton army leftover from Pariah Dark's reign might be useful in repelling those invading forces.

Honestly, there were more than enough hands to go around! And with the heroes gone, Danny didn't mind letting everyone out for a little break, as long as they followed his rules. They wouldn't stop the search for the other heroes, but hopefully, when they found them, the heroes wouldn't mind Danny's intervention too much. :)

In other words:

Someone fucks up, and all of Earth's living heroes are either wished out of existence or are whisked away to some far-off realm where Danny hasn't checked yet. In the attempt to figure out what's going on, Danny lets the dead run amok over the Earth as they search for clues. The skeleton army repels the invading armies, the souls of dead heroes deal with the world leaders, and his rogues and other Amity Parkers set up shop in place of famous heroes, trying to get the cities under control again.

Basically, they just do their best to keep everything from imploding until the Justice League and others are back.

(And why is it that Danny hasn't disappeared? Well, whatever caused everyone to go poof! only affected living heroes. Anyone heroes that were dead in the first place, or even just half-dead, stayed behind.)

my favourite bakugou x you trope is the one where he randomly gets thrown 10 years into the future by a villain with you (or to spice things up, his current gf/ “situationship” who isn’t you) by his side and they discover that bakugou is a number 1 pro hero now who’s very established, agency and billboards - the whole nine and he’s chuffed, he really is.

he tries to keep a low profile as he doesn’t want to alter the future and change the past but he sees you across the street - decade older, very pretty you donning a wedding ring on your finger and he’s sick, practically throwing up when he also sees a baby in your pram that he’s sure isn’t his…

until he sees his future self exit a building and scoop you up into his arms, then leaning down to pick said baby from its seat - and the baby is the spitting image of bakugou.

he has to hide behind the alleyway bin to alleviate his breathing.

I am seeing some of the WORST takes about tdp season 4. Sweet, sweet tumblr users. This season was a lot of set up, not everything was supposed to be explained or resolved, or even "should" have been. Season 4 had to do the heavy leg work of re-establishing characters and arcs and the plot moving foreword. It just needs a little time to be able to act on everything it's now established. It did a good job building off of arc 1, and now we are fully indoctrinated into arc 2!

Round 1 - Phylum Annelida

(sources - 1, 2, 3, 4)

Annelida is a large phylum, whose animals are sometimes called the “segmented worms.” This is a large phylum containing over 22,000 living species. Annelids are made up of multiple segments, each with the same set of organs (except for the oddball Echiurans). Instead of cilia, they use fleshy protrusions called parapodium for locomotion.

Annelida is a diverse phylum with animals that have adapted to many different environments, including terrestrial, freshwater, and marine habitats from tidal zones to hydrothermal vents. It includes the earthworms, leeches, ragworms, feather duster worms, and others.

Many marine polychaete worms live in tubes they build themselves or burrow in the sand to ambush prey or filter feed, but some spend their whole lives swimming in the water column.

Propaganda under the cut:

Earthworms are important in farming and in ecology as they help aerate and enrich the soil.

The largest annelid is the endangered Giant Gippsland Earthworm (Megascolides australis), which is on average 1 m (3.3 ft) long and 2 cm (0.79 in) wide. They can reach up to 3 metres (9.8 ft) long, and they can stretch to seem much longer or contract to seem shorter.

Like earthworms, marine polychaetes also aerate the sea floor, enabling water and oxygen to reach the other creatures that live with them.

Annelids help scientists monitor the quality of water, as different species have different tolerances for water quality.

Medicinal leeches are still used for blood-letting, though not as frequently as they once were. In fact, some species of leech are threatened due to overharvesting for this purpose!

Annelids don’t fossilize well due to their soft bodies, so most fossils are simply jaws or tubes. The earliest annelid fossil that can be confidentially identified is dated to the early Cambrian, and most of our modern polychaete groups appeared by the end of the Carboniferous.

Okay so you’d still love your partner if they were a worm, but would they be your favorite animal?

The way the td fandom talks about autism/characters who show autistic traits* is literally ridiculous. some of you are so ableist even if you're autistic yourself. especially towards women who have autism (which is also misogyny, but that's not shocking coming from td fans). it's wild!!! because like. take Courtney for example. to me she can very clearly be seen as autistic (a few traits that come to mind for me are her constant list making, need for things to be exactly how she views them, "strong sense of justice" (as some say)/very set in her ways, super rule oriented, sometimes socially inappropriate/struggles with certain aspects of being social) but at least in my perspective of the fandom she's not widely viewed as such and instead demonized for a lot of her autistic traits. and this isn't to say that autism excuses all her actions but like. a lot of people's hatred for her autistic traits is clearly rooted in ableism/misogyny, especially when you look at a character who's autistic traits are similar to hers, Noah, and how he's treated by the fandom. he's widely accepted as autistic, his traits are made out to be quirky personality tidbits (which is ableist in its own right but. yeah), and he's generally not demonized for the same things Courtney is. I wonder why (<- its because Courtney is a woman and people can't fathom that autistic women exist)

Sorry if this isn't eloquent i'm basically just thought dumping here but. ugh it's just so weird to see idk

[a-spacecadet]

Oh no what have I done I meant to make them cute but not that cute AGGHH GO BACK CTRL-Z CTRL-Z!!!!
