listen I love ravenpaw as much as the next guy he gets nostalgia bias from me too but the way people list and remember him as one of the most prominent main characters of the first arc, a protagonist, firestar's lifelong bestie, a true staple of the series is so funny. who invited my man blud bro thinks he's on the team

It’s so funny to me because I’ve only been on tumblr like a month and I got it for the rangers apprentice content (because god knows that the fandom is nonexistent elsewhere) and I can recognize users and profile pictures. Like I don’t know these people personally but I notice every time they like a post because there’s only so many of us and only so much content FOR consuming. I go on Pinterest and search the rangers apprentice and go “Hey, I’ve seen that person around!!” I have never spoken a word to these people in my life yet I know who they are and that they, too, are obsessed with a stupid fantasy series for middle schoolers

Headcanon time: When apprentices pass the fourth test and graduate from their professor's care, there's a ceremony where they 'return' their old hat to their professor before wearing the new hat of their own design for the first time.

Despite all the strains in their relationship, Beldaruit, of course, is sobbing the whole time when Qifrey's returning his hat (which also happens to be missing its tassel), and when he passes the fifth test, Qifrey says that it was very cringey and embarassing and how he would never do that when it's time for his apprentice's graduation-

Flash forward to the future where all the girls pass their test and graduate, and Qifrey? Man's straight up bawling when he receives their hats. Olruggio is relentless in bringing this up- but unknown to Qifrey, he was crying at the time too, Qifrey just didn't see it.

wait, why can’t a decent amount of the members in proto-thunderclan not hunt?

A lot of them have serious physical disabilities! It's enough that it poses a logistical problem, which they are committed to overcoming together.

Thunder Storm's three legs makes him slower than his companions. He's ferociously powerful, but like a male lion, he has to rely on his "lionesses" to slow a large animal.

Bright Storm has asthma from her heroics trying to save SkyClan cats from a fire. She's taking that from Gray Wing, who is famously the first major death now. Like her son, she has a difficult time with chasing prey.

Bumble is dyspraxic. She's a terrible hunter and fighter and struggles with self-worth because OTHERS used it to dehumanize her, and continues to, even after an entire society forms out of love of her.

Sunlit Frost has permanent nerve damage in his arm from the fire, and ends up working so hard that it makes his disability worse. A bite on the good paw from Snake becomes infected after he refuses to sit out from digging graves after the First Battle; I am planning a chunky B-plot about Sunlit coming to terms with the fact he has to retire early.

That's FOUR major members of a small group with physical disabilities that make hunting hard or impossible. They have a lot of logistical problems that I will actually be exploring solutions to.

Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent group of the misnamed platform Truth Social, seems to be tanking again. It takes in very little income and habitually loses money. It's not unlike Trump Vitamins, Trump Steaks, or Trump University – a scam or a rip-off.

Shares in Trump Media and Technology Group were down about 7% on Monday afternoon after the company reported scant revenues and a net loss in its first full quarter as a public company. Meanwhile, Donald Trump returned to X early Monday in advance of his interview with X owner Elon Musk later in the day, raising some doubt about whether Trump would continue favoring Truth Social, the social media platform owned by Trump Media. Shares in Trump Media have been subject to significant volatility since it began trading in late March thanks in part to competing bets from Wall Street traders about how much the stock would fall. But the stock has lost half its value since mid-May, and has fallen more than 40% following a brief surge in the wake of the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump, the Republican nominee for president.

When Trump Media & Technology Group drops too much, Weird Donald then gets his MAGA pals to prop it up. But if left to normal market forces, it would plummet to junk stock status. The last Trump company to have the designation DJT which was traded on stock markets went bankrupt.

Trump was never a successful businessman. He's a nepo baby who got a huge bundle of cash from his segregationist father who was a property developer in NYC. He mostly squandered that on projects which were worthless. You have to go out of your way to lose money in the casino business, but Trump managed to do just that.

His big break was getting a lifeline from TV producer Mark Burnett who got him the gig on The Apprentice where Trump portrayed a successful businessman. A lot of Americans still can't distinguish the real Trump from the fake TV Trump.

(Catch-up) Day 2: New OC

I believe my newest OC is probably Anaster! Don't even know if I've posted him, cause his design is still a WIP and I haven't done much with him. He's a funky undead magic-using conman.

Shanks vs his Crew - The time he lost everything at strip poker

(Ao3 Link)

Spin-off of "The Awkward truths are still truths Corner" Pt. 1. Original draft:

Shanks (visibly frustrated and not nearly drunk enough): Why am I the only one here who lost everything but his pants while you only took off your hair tie, Beck? It shouldn't even count as a article of clothing in a game like this! So why can't I win?

Beckman (with a smug grin): Because I've practically raised you since you were sixteen, captain, so I know you and your many tells.

Shanks (pouting): But that should mean that I can win, too. And I won against Whitebeard last week! Fuck, I've beaten Sengoku the Buddha once!

Beckman (feeling another black strand turn gray on his head all at once): When the hell did you find the time to play Strip Poker with the Navy's Fleet Admiral, captain? And how did you - seeing Shanks's very very smug smirk, he suddenly got the feeling that ignorance was really a bliss sometimes - No, wait, don't tell me, I really don't want to know. Nor I want to have that kind of mental image if it's true that you won the game. Yours is more than enough for a lifetime.

Shanks (still laughing): Ok, ok, I won't tell you. I'm a gentleman, after all, I don't "kiss and tell" as they say.

Beckman: Stop giving me this kind of mental images and start losing with dignity - then seeing the ridiculous state the redhead was in - Not that you have much of that left now with those garish undergarments you put on.

Shanks (pouting again and crossing his arms in petulant way): I already told you that these boxers are stylish, not garish. They were sold as a limited edition.

Beckman: If you say so, boss. The crew and I still think you were scammed.

Shanks: Anyway, if you know me so well, what are my "tells", then? Because my poker face can't be THAT bad! In fact, I'll have you know that I could stop a world war with just my poker face if I felt like it.

Beckman: Your poker face is exceptional, captain, but only when you face the highest authorities of both the pirates and the navy. And it'd help you if you stopped sticking your tongue at me every time you get some card you think it'd help you win.

Shanks: That's pure slander and I should have you demoted for even thinking about it! And some shitty cards they were for all the good they did to me. - looking at his cards with a resignated look - So, are you saying that I'd have won if I hadn't done that?

Beckman (revealing his winning hand): No, you'd have still lost, captain.

(Shanks pressed his head against the table while the whole crew burst out laughing; Hongo went to collect his prize with a definitely smug pat on Yasopp's shoulder, who grunted something along the lines of "This is the last time I bet anything on the captain")

Beckman (standing up from his chair and re-tying his once-black hair): It was a pleasure to play with you, captain. I expect my monthly supply of cigarettes on my desk tomorrow, don't forget that.

Shanks (growling something about stupid drunk games and mutinous first mates): Those things will kill you soon or late, Beck.

Beckman: So will your recklessness or your alcohol addiction, but you don't see me complaining. Moreover, a win is still a win. Ah, and put something warm on your way to the cabins, captain, it's too cold out here to be standing on the deck in just your boxers.

Shanks: Fuck you, Beck.

i already did the m6 version of this but here's other side characters and what they're more likely to call him I think, I did them based on groups so characters I couldn't really group (like Muriel) aren't on here

there's a very particular reason Natiqa is singled out and I'll have to elaborate on that later
