Little Big Changes ✂️~
———
CONTEXT~~
A long forgotten short comic I did for pre-totk/post-botw domestic zelink
I love Zel’s hair symbolism especially after altering her status as a “princess”and becoming a Hateno grade school teacher. She’d most likely still maintain some insecurities but that’s what our lovely knight was made for <3
Semi-connected to my previous Signing Link headcanon, Link speaks here for the first time post-Calamity and gets super self-conscious. But of course Zelda doesn’t mind and is happy that Link growing more comfortable after the events of breath of the wild

Now that Ghibli's new movie is coming out soon, I've been thinking about anime films and wanna talk about my favorite animated movie ever, Tokyo Godfathers.
TG is a 2003 tragicomedy by Satoshi Kon, following three unhoused people––an alcoholic, a runaway girl, an a trans woman––who find a baby in a dumpster and set off across Tokyo to reunite her with her parents.
If you like the sound of that, go watch it because the rest of this post is spoilers and I have FEELINGS about this movie.
URGHH, the fact that only two moments of true kindness, generosity, and care given to the three protagonists without any expectation of reciprocity are given by a Latin-American immigrant couple and a drag club full of queens and trans women. The fact that, despite her loud and dramatic personality, Hana is the glue that holds the team together and the heart of the whole movie. The fact that this movie pulls no punches at showing the violence and inhumanity committed by "civilized Japanese society" against the unhoused. The fact that Miyuki craves to be loved by her parents and ends up seeing Hana as her true mother. The fact that Miyuki starts off accidentally using transphobic language against Hana, but slowly begins calling her "Miss Hana" out of respect. The fact that, according to Kon, Hana's role in the story is as a mythological trickster god and "disturb the morality and order of society, but also play a role in revitalizing culture." The fact that Hana so desperately wants to be part of a true family, yet is willing to sacrifice her found family so they can be with their own, and is rewarded for her good deeds in the end by becoming a godmother. The fact that, throughout the movie, wind and light have been used to signify the presence of god's hand/influence (this movie's about nondenominational faith––faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in a higher power. Lots of religious are referenced, such as Buddhism/Hinduism, Christianity, and Shintoism), and in the climax of the film, as Hana jumps off a building to save a baby that isn't hers, a gust of wind and a shower of light save her from death. The fact that god saves a trans woman's life because she proved herself a mother, and that shit makes me CRY.
#ramblings#long post#not art#personal#it's the ultimate found family movie#not without its problems. i really dont like its depiction of mental health#for a movie that does an otherwise great job spotlighting the unhoused crisis in japan and its society's oppressive distain towards women#and queer people. it really drops the ball on depicting one of the biggest contributors to the crisis#but otherwise this movie is so fucking full of love and kindness and second chances and how fucking good queer folks and poc are#it blows my mind that this film came out in 2003 and the main protagonist is a trans woman who's just the fucking best#the recent gkids dub is REALLY good by the way! they got shakina nayfack; a trans va; to voice Hana!#the dub made great strides to undo a lot of the original misgendering and mistranslations#also its a christmas movie#also the ost was done by the band that did earthbound's ost

Brazil’s Landless Workers Movement (MST) donated two tones of food to Gaza, including rice, milk and sugar.
The Brazilian government sent a Brazilian Air Force plane to transport the food.
MST says they hope to have donated a 100 ton by the end of the week.

It's crazy how everyone was hyping up the Nokotan anime before release but the only subs I can find are shitsubs (machine translated) from "le même." I can't bring myself to watch it until it gets real subs.
#i feel bad for everyone watching it this way#even the person who released it said there were a ton of mistranslations#i guess it's not going to get real fansubs so i'll wait until it shows up on crunchyroll and someone scrapes their subs

This Thanksgiving, there are people who will be very thankful for your help.
HELP OMAR KEEP HIS FAMILY ALIVE
*Remaking because I was incorrect about some of the info on my last post*
Omar not only has to raise the money to escape the genocide, he also has to pay for daily medical costs for his father and brother, which costs him $150 or more per day. His brother, who is currently in the ICU, already lost his wife, and has kids that need him to stay alive. His father is suffering from an enlarged liver that requires surgery. A single day without donations could mean it's their last day.
YOU can be someone to be thankful for. Every donation, no matter how small, is a step towards saving lives. Every reblog makes a difference.

#the confusion was due to a few mistranslations i'm so sorry about that#i hope all of my info is correct now#omarfamily10#.bdo

in Storm Bringer, Iceman mentions Chuuya punching a guy through (several) ceilings for having asked him about his past. That guy was a wholeseller Chuuya was supposed to be making a deal with for the jewel trade he was in charge of. That incident happened July 18th, and it took the guy 3 months to heal.
Now, we know both halves of skk were 15 in, well, Fifteen, and that at this time in SB, they should both be 16. Chuuya's birthday is in April, and Dazai's, June.
Since there was a time skip of a month at the end of Fifteen, the punching incident can't have been from then, as we need at least that amount of time for Dazai's birthday to have already passed. So this was after the boys' 16th birthdays, July 18th +3 months, placing SB's events at somewhere at least mid-October, even November.
The events of SB take place over like, at most, 2 weeks, between the Flags' deaths and the final fight. Then, there's another one-month skip in the epilogue, +1.5 month, so we're now at minimum in December-January range.
The Dragon's Head Conflict is said to have happened "shortly after the King of Assassins incident". Skk should still be 16 during the conflict, so we have until the end of April to get there. The conflict lasted for 88 days, nearly 3 months, bringing us to a bare minimum of it starting at the tail end of January.
What I'm saying is there was barely 6 months, most likely even less, between SB and the end of the Dragon's Head Conflict. The PM might have mostly avoided taking part in it (canon reason why they managed to take over the underworld in its wake), but they still suffered from it all the same, especially since they had just spent and lost a lot of resources during their fight against Verlaine.
Also Chuuya must have had like 3 months to make those friends before losing them too.
#it's not even a hell year it's more like a hell 5 months#and NO chuuya wasn't an executive that was a mistranslation in the novel he was a CANDIDATE for the title like dazai#see: fifteen's epilogue it's written right there#dazai got the promotion and chuuya got the arahabaki papers mori was witholding as a prize#mori probably had to balance it out because my boy was Going Through It and skk need to stay on equal footing more or less for it to work#bungo stray dogs#bungou stray dogs#bsd#bsd analysis#storm bringer#stormbringer#bsd stormbringer#bsd fifteen#apparently i talk sometimes#bsd timeline#this should be a tag

#some more bonus angles under the cut because holy shit#psyduck#sniffer#someone in the server said somethin about psyduck and golduck's names being mistranslations#because psyduck is more golden and golduck is better at being psychic#but i honestly thought it was just because neither of them are psychic-types‚ which always threw ME off as a kid

Hey Rassicas, what do you think America is like in the world of splatoon? Like how do you think the land mass is split by countries and what parts of the land is/isn’t underwater?
Well there's the best answer we have to what is and isn't underwater. I don't have much in the way of headcanons for how society would look like there or what the political borders are since we know Nothing, and anything anyone could say would be baseless. There has been very few implied mentions of north america though...
In the art of splatoon 2, in the concept art for bisk, there are mentions of california...well actually this is a bit of a mistranslation
The location mentioned is "Kanifornia". kani=crab. Crabifornia? lol There's also a pun in here lost about him going to the club because he's a crab. japanese transliteration of the english words "crab" and "club" are both クラブkurabu. This is just concept art, but i headcanon Kanifornia is a real place that's in about the same spot as real world california, and a lot of the people there are crabs lol
on page 215 of Haikara Walker, there is also this...
"These cartridges are ones that have been released in a region different from Inkadia. Although the shape of the cartridges are different, it seems that the contents itself are not. The difference in culture can really be felt in the place where the label features the pixel art"
these boxes are a clear reference to the style of boxes of the US releases of NES and SNES....it could also be PAL in there too. some europe releases use something closer to US box art, but from the snes cartridge shape, definitely based on US at least. Anyway I want to believe that the region shown is truly in the splatoon world's north america and not just another part of japan like the splatlands are. And just like in real life US and JP, there's some different cultural sensibilities between inkadia and the region of splatoon world's north america.
#asks#splatoon#splatoon world#splatoon lore#splatoon headcanon#i didnt use a screenshot of the haikara walker english translation because i just noticed the first line in there is mistranslated...#will need to get that fixed

#biblically accurate unicorn#i watched a video about unicorns lately#apparently the first mention of unicorns in the bible comes from a mistranslation of urus > monoceros > unicorns#urus = aurochs#its a kind of primordial ox nowadays extinct#and since then unicorns have been linked to jesus ?? idk i was not focused on the video anymore#anyway i found also that scientists have been trying to “remake” this primordial ox by breeding#and so i used this one for the chimera !! this + the silhouette of goofy unicorns in medieval drawings#bull#ox#auroch#uru#unicorn#bible#the Unknown#chimera#monster#bestiary#creature design#ink#1010#octem 126#aer 4
