I think the thing that keeps me hooked on Encanto and Bruno is the implications of a mentally ill person in this setting.
Like he is all but confirmed mentally ill, and it’s not a curse, it’s not a metaphor, it’s not even PTSD or Cinematic Crazy Disorder, he has OCD. He has real person OCD, we know his compulsions and can make pretty good guesses at his triggers and obsessions, it is OCD. In a lot of fantasy we know that surely mental illness must exist, because presumably these people have brains and brains are where mental illness is stored, but we don’t often receive confirmation that it does exist. Even when characters start showing signs of PTSD, mileage varies on accuracy, and it often gets hand waved as normal trauma instead of clearly being a disorder that could potentially require a doctor’s help to treat. They have yet to state in canon that Bruno has OCD, but they put it into the script, they built it into his character, and they didn’t even go for the usual Has to Have Everything Neat and Tidy variety that we see in media, instead they’ve made a point to show his compulsions and generalized anxiety. This isn’t Detective Procedural OCD, it’s Based on My Aunt OCD.
And that more than anything has me thinking about the structure of this society and this family. I find myself writing mentally ill OC’s for this fandom more than for others because it feels more organic in the Encanto verse than it does the Buffy verse. I spend more time wondering about Alma and her family history, does she have a cousin or siblings that are like Bruno, or does she just assume he’s like that because of the magic? It seems obvious to me that the Madrigal family tends toward anxiety disorders, and after the comics I’m more convinced Bruno is autistic as well as having OCD, how long until some doctor comes to town and is like “Oh, hey! You guys all have mental illnesses!”? It’s the 50’s in the movie, so knowledge of this stuff ain’t great, but Mirabel would be 89(?) today, her grandkids might have been diagnosed, her great grandkids would definitely be the right generation to receive a diagnosis. Oof, but we saw when Encanto first came out that some people consider mental illness to be a White Thing, so how does the intersection of racism and colorism affect this? Does the great grand kid that looks like Pepa have an easier time getting anti-anxiety meds than the great grandkid that looks like Félix?
I should actually probably take my ADHD meds or this is going to get long.
I’ve been weaving Adelaide into more stories because she was originally designed as a vehicle for Camilo to have heavily autistic kids and grandkids, but ever since writing Juan I keep thinking about the experiences of two autistic kids in a rural village that doesn’t know what that is yet. And I want to play with that! Like he doesn’t struggle with facial expressions so he would fly under the radar, but she does struggle with proper emoting so she doesn’t. On the other hand, he went through a very showy phase that got him labeled annoying, but she’s a girl, and quiet, and society likes that. He has a good relationship with his family, so he has mentors and friends; but she has a bad relationship with her family so she has a found family and when Bruno comes out of the walls she would cling to him because he is an Adult that is Like Her. His special interest is math and math is useful so he gets plenty of opportunities to play with it, her special interest is stars and that’s cool and all but stars are not a job. How do people in rural 1950’s handle sensory issues? How accepting are people of those with mental illness when they don’t realize that’s why little Romero is like that?
And what about the downsides of untreated mental illness? We see through Bruno how isolating that can be, but I inherited my broken brain from my mother and she has taught me all the ways NOT to handle it. How many people in Encanto are self medicating because they have bipolar disorder and no clue that’s what’s happening? I read that folks with autism or OCD can often get swept up in fundamentalism because the rigid Right vs Wrong world view presses all the right disorder buttons for them. So how many of the most heavily Catholic people in town are mentally ill?
Oh my god and schizophrenia! I read that hallucinations and delusions can often reflect the culture surrounding the person with the disorder. So! In Encanto, a paradise that’s surrounded by a super violent conflict (because this is taking place in Actual Real World Colombia in the mid-20th century), what does that look like? Do they have aural hallucinations where they think they can hear distant sounds of screaming? Do they have delusions that they’re keeping the miracle alive by never letting their candles burn all the way down? How does the culture of the Encanto affect people with schizophrenia?! How are those people treated?!
I know it’s a Disney property, so obviously they’re not going to release a series that does a deep dive into what mental illness in the Encanto looks like but ugh! I have so many questions, do I really have to write all the answers myself?! Rude. I mean, I’m going to do it, if I have the time and energy I am one hundred percent going to write a story about being a mentally ill person in a magic rural village. But still!
Stay tuned for a longer story about Adelaide than I’d ever planned to write, and a stream of consciousness about how Julieta’s gift should affect PTSD. If I get around to it.

Dramofir
Image © Paizo Publishing, accessed at Archives of Nethys here
[This conversion is more in the spirit of the mechanics than a straight 1:1 conversion. A lot of the spell-like abilities the dramofir has don’t exist in PF1e, and it uses more of the mechanics for critical successes and failures than a number of other 2e monsters. I also fleshed it out from a flavor standpoint, adding some of my thoughts as explanations for what in the Bestiary 3 is intentionally left mysterious.]
Dramofir CR 14 N Aberration This creature resembles a lean humanoid giant, except that its head is that of an animal. It wears a voluminous robe, swirling with colors and patterns, and carries oversized knitting needles.
Dramofirs are shepherds of dreams, coaxing them along particular paths and then harvesting them when conditions are right. They are native to the Dreamlands, the most permanent and “mundane” regions of the Dimension of Dreams, and also help to maintain the boundaries and landmarks of that plane. They are something like the immune system of that plane, and serve its interests above others. Although most dramofirs remain in the Dreamlands to support that reality, some do enter the waking world to interact with dreamers and to harvest dreams.
A dramofir can read the dreams of a creature just by looking at them, and take those dreams with them that attract their attention. They also serve as wandering mystics, interpreting dreams, purging people of magical or mundane nightmares, and killing animate dreams in order to weave them into their cloaks. Animate dreams hate dramofirs, which in turn regard animate dreams with an odd sort of pity. Most of the time, a dramofir will move on peacefully once it has collected a dream, but they occasionally exterminate either individuals or entire communities if it suits them. To outsiders, it often seems inscrutable which dreamers a dramofir will protect and which dreamers they kill.
A dramofir’s cloak, woven with half-remembered scenes from a thousand dreams, is both a defensive and offensive device. As defense, it provides deflection from blows. As offense, it can mesmerize the minds of creatures that see it with longing for their own dreams. Once enemies are so distracted, the dramofir then shuts them down completely with mind influencing magic, or jabs them with its knitting needles, which are as sharp as spears and can strike with lethal force. In the waking world, a dramofir will usually flee if it thinks it cannot win a conflict, but in the Dreamlands, a dramofir will gladly fight to the death to protect the integrity of a site or powerful dreamer.
Dramofir CR 14 XP 38,400 N Large aberration (extraplanar) Init +10; Senses darkvision 120 ft., Perception +25, see in darkness Defense AC 29, touch 23, flat-footed 22 (-1 size, +6 Dex, +1 dodge, +7 deflection, +6 natural) hp 199 (21d8+105) Fort +13, Ref +13, Will +20 DR 10/magic and slashing; Immune sleep Defensive Abilities dream coat, fortification (50%) Offense Speed 40 ft., fly 40 ft. (perfect) Melee +1 returning shortspear +19/+14/+89 (1d8+3) Ranged 2 +1 returning shortspear +22 (1d8+3) Space 10 ft.; Reach 10 ft. Psychic Magic CL 14th, concentration +21 (+25 casting defensively) 30 PE—cloak of dreams (6 PE, DC 23), dream council (5 PE), dream scan (3 PE, DC 20), fear (4 PE, DC 21), modify memory (4 PE, DC 21), phantasmal killer (4 PE, DC 21), psychic surgery (6 PE), tower of iron will II (7 PE) Special Attacks bittersweet dreams, deadly needles, pluck dreams Spell-like Abilities CL 14th, concentration +21 (+25 casting defensively) Constant—tongues At will—dimension door 3/day—quickened deeper darkness Statistics Str 17, Dex 22, Con 19, Int 13, Wis 26, Cha 24 Base Atk +15; CMB +19; CMD 52 Feats Alertness, Combat Casting, Combat Reflexes, Dodge, Flyby Attack, Great Fortitude, Improved Initiative, Psychic Virtuoso, Quicken SLA (deeper darkness), Toughness, Weapon Focus (shortspear) Skills Acrobatics +19 (+23 jumping), Appraise +11, Bluff +17, Diplomacy +17, Fly +25, Knowledge (arcana) +14, Knowledge (planes) +11, Perception +25, Sense Motive +22, Stealth +20 Languages telepathy 100 ft., tongues Ecology Environment any land and underground (Dimension of Dreams) Organization solitary or council (2-5) Treasure standard Special Abilities Bittersweet Dreams (Su) As a standard action, a dramofir can animate the images on its cloak, mesmerizing onlookers with memories of their dreams. All creatures that can see the dramofir within 30 feet must succeed a DC 27 Will save or be staggered and suffer a -2 penalty to attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill and ability checks, as per a crushing despair spell, for 1 minute. A creature that succeeds this save is instead staggered for 1 round and is immune to the bittersweet dreams of that dramofir for the next 24 hours. A creature may avoid having to make a save as if this were a gaze attack. This is a mind-influencing, visual, emotion effect, and the save DC is Charisma based. Deadly Needles (Su) A dramofir treats any knitting needles it carries as +1 returning shortspears. Once per round as an immediate action, a dramofir can deal 14d6 points of force damage to any creature it strikes with its shortspear attack. Dream Coat (Su) As long as it is wearing a cloak, a dramofir gains its Charisma modifier as a deflection modifier to its AC and CMD. Pluck Dreams (Su) As a full round action, a dramofir can touch a creature and take its dreams. A creature suffering from a nightmare spell, or similar spell or effect, has this effect dispelled if the dramofir succeeds on an opposed caster level check (use the monster’s HD if it is a supernatural ability). If the creature is not suffering from nightmares, the dramofir takes its dreams anyway. If the creature fails a DC 27 Will save, its rest is disturbed, and the creature suffers from delirium until it gets 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. This is a mind-influencing effect, and the save DC is Charisma based.

game #3: share your top 5 current songs
tagged by @clutterbugs thank you emma!!! i feel like i get to use the free space in scrabble
1. Kiss in My Heart by Junk Fujiyama
i discovered this song a while back on a city pop playlist i think? and it’s been stuck in my head recently (even before indigo!) so i’ve been playing it. it’s just a fun happy song, it sounds like the artist is smiling as he’s singing it
2. ILLELLA by MAMAMOO
another super fun song and i didn’t think it was possible but i am gayer because of it. i have so many feelings about this i will have to hold myself back but i am v i b r a t i n g something’s about to break
3. girl like me by Blessing
this song is acoustic but i think also r&b influenced? i like how the lyrics are somewhat specific but the insecurity is she’s talking about is still super relatable to a lot of people and the singer’s voice is kind of unique
4. complex (demo) by Katie Gregson-MacLeod
this song is just kinda heartbreaking tbh at the end of the day it’s your typical woman trying to “save” a man who's too far gone to spare her a second thought story but the vocals really carry the emotion across in a way i don’t hear all the time so i think it’s worth a listen if you...want to feel sad
5. Ketchum, ID by Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus
i have been in a folksy mood lately and i think a few julien baker/phoebe bridgers/lucy daucus songs came up in my listening and that reminded me about this album. this is my favorite song from it. i think the line “i am never anywhere anywhere i go, when i’m home i’m never there long enough to know” is just really hitting for me rn? i also can’t get over how this is the last song on the album they ended the whole album with
BONUS GAME! i wasn’t tagged in this but i wanted to share this while i’m here in case anyone was interested in doing this for themselves. if you have spotify this bot will judge you for your music taste. it’s like the anti-spotify wrapped. this is what they had to say about mine:
i will tag @joon-rkive, @cheekyquokka, @mutedstring, @jinsquishes, @senor-hoberto and anyone who tagged me in one game but hasn’t been tagged in one of the others (does that make sense?). no pressure just if any of the games interest you 💕 feel free to ignore me!!!
#tag: i'm it!#cordiallyfuturedwight#wistfulocean#jiminsproof#blueside-hobi#seoksao#clutterbugs#joon-rkive#cheekyquokka#mutedstring#jinsquishes#senor-hoberto#i was relatively normal about this be proud of me please

All the elements of the periodic table in the Kichwa language
Jose E. Andino-Enríquez, Manuel A. Andino-Enríquez, Francis E. Hidalgo-Báez, Sisa P. Chalán-Gualán, Santiago D. Gualapuro-Gualapuro, Simone Belli and Michelle B. Chicaiza-Lema recently published in the Journal of Chemical Education a proposal to adapt the names of the 118 elements of the periodic table to Kichwa (Adaptation of the Periodic Table to Kichwa: An Ecuadorian Native Language; J. Chem. Ed., 2022 99 (1), 211-218, DOI: 10.1021/acs.jchemed.1c00383).
The authors explain that the Kichwa lacks scientific tools to respond to educational needs, triggering the gradual loss of intercultural diversity. To adapt the periodic table to Kichwa, they took into account the different linguistic variations of the language and the opinion of the speakers. This is the adaptation compared to the Spanish version, the language most widely spoken in Ecuador:
Lo autores explican que que el kichwa carece de herramientas científicas para responder a las necesidades educativas, desencadenando la pérdida gradual de la diversidad intercultural. Para adaptar la tabla periódica al kichwa tuvieron en cuenta las diferentes variaciones lingüísticas del idioma y la opinión de los hablantes. Así quedó la adaptación:

Charlotte von Moos (ed.): Miami In The 1980s
Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther und Franz König, Köln, 2022
First things first: that book is cool. The graphic design, in mint green and dusty pink is clearly an homage to its subject – the architecture from postmodern Miami. But not only it respects on glossy paper the colour code of an era and style, it’s full of new drawings (plans and façades) that allow us to understand buildings we knew as images in depth and to consider their architectural qualities. As it must be the book starts with screenshots from the main title of the TV-Series Miami Vice (1984-89) that reminds us that – for the first time in history – architecture had become a real protagonist in storytelling. Remember: two undercover cops dressed in Hugo Boss suits hang around Miami driving a white Ferrari Testarossa, they pretend to be drug dealers to catch the bad guys enjoying the sun of Florida. This criminal society meets and lives in houses that fit their lifestyle and the neo-modern villas from Arquitectonica are not only the decor of their life – they tell us about the taste, the habits and the dangers from those people. Michael Mann was the creator and executive producer from that series and if you’ve seen any other of his films you’ll know one thing: he loves the visual power of architecture and understands the role it can play in storytelling (so was Alfred Hitchcock ‘s review).
Many of us know the images from Miami Vice and if, like me, you were born in the early 1970s and watched too much TV – you looked at them as an adolescent and became an architect because of them. I did. But the genius of the book is to reveal us the context, the ideas and concepts that were around at that time and who brought a generation of architects to the invention of a very unique and local style. For sure, as post-moderns, they wanted to play with history, to mix Adolf Loos or Le Corbusier with ornamented porticos à la Aldo Rossi (the buildings of Duany Plater-Zyberk are a perfect example from this approach). But one should not forget that the iconic Spear House (1976-78) was the child of a project developed by Laurinda Spear and Remment (not yet) Rem Koolhaas in 1974, at the peak of his obsessions with Surrealism, Constructivism and the Berlin Wall. Last but not least, they all understood the power of colour and refused the dogmatic boredom of white plaster. The essay from Charlotte von Moos unfolds all those references, brings unknown archives to life and fascinates with its enthusiasm. The whole book makes it clear: those buildings were not just a set for TV-series but true architecture with its successes and mistakes.
The in-depth essay is followed by short introductions with archival or new photographs (and drawings) of 19 projects made my S.O.M, Philip Johnson & John Burgee, Mateu Architecture, Duany Plater-Zyberk, Isamu Noguchi and – of course – Arquitectonica. It’s like eating a pistachio, raspberry, mint and vanilla ice cream: you know you shouldn’t like it and that it’s gonna make you sick, but you cannot stop. Still, and that’s probably the goal of the book: many of those buildings are now in danger – the taste of the inhabitants has changed, downtown Miami craves for densification and the constructions are too young to become historical monuments (think about the IBA87 in Berlin). A whole visual chapter is allocated to the demolition of The Babylon (1981) by Arquitectonica, and alerts us that it might be our last chance to visit those buildings believing we are undercover cops driving a white Ferrari.
Now comes a spoiler, like in movies, but I’m gonna tell you how the book ends (so stop reading here if you don’t want to know)… The final spreads are dedicated to fashion shoots that were done in the Spear House for GQ or Vogue. The legs of a lady in a bikini enjoy the swimming pool, a young man in pyjama stares into our eyes, other people sunbath on the terrace or jump into the water. They pose with their perfectly clean clothes and rather impossible haircuts (too much hairspray involved, much too much – but that’s the 1980s). What becomes clear, looking at those images, is that architecture – here, is more than a decor. It’s a part of a lifestyle that includes nice cars, expensive watches and shiny garments, making the American dream a kitsch and unattainable Gesamtkunstwerk. A total work of art.

S Se W Er Rf F I H - 8/118
when I was around twelve I used to sit at the family computer and send hatemail to a white french dude named Jacques who was a self proclaimed communist on Tumblr. This was back in the day when you didn't need a blog to send anon hate. I had no real beef with him but I just didn't like his tone. used to send him "SHUT UP Jacques" periodically. and he'd answer every single one of my asks like "who is this?? show your face or I'll fucking kill you" and I'd be like "now now, that doesn't make sense, jacques" all haughty and he'd get so fucking mad at me. One time he posted a selfie and I sent him an ask claiming I was a psychologist and that his hair parting suggested that he wasn't a communist at all. and he took it deliriously serious and went off on a 2,000 word rant. I can remember going to stay at my grandparents over that weekend, so I didn't even respond to the rant until I came back. I could've chosen to end it there, but when I returned, I sent him another ask which was like "psychologist here again: if you were a communist your hair parting would be in the middle. evenly distributed. All behavioural signs point to someone who doesn't take their own values seriously." and he went ballistic. really swearing at me. all caps type beat. he never turned the asks off, btw. which always made me wonder if he didn't know how to, or if he didn't want to cause he was convinced he was fighting a war, and this action would ensure he lost it. anyway this went on for weeks until one day I completely forgot about him like he was some kind of childhood imaginary friend I'd conjured up in my loneliness. but yesterday I happened to recall the whole scenario, because my buddy was like "remember when you were twelve and I came over to your house, and you showed me on the computer how you'd been terrorizing this random French guy for days on end. And you were laughing like fucking crazy. and I said it wasn't funny because he probably had problems, and you were like 'oh.' and you looked a bit guilty for a second, but then you went and got a grapefruit from the kitchen and threw it out of the second story window at my kid brother, who was playing in the street, and then you started laughing again?" Well. when she put it like that, needless to say I felt bad. so Jacques if you're out there I'm sorry I was such a little shit. you had totally normal hair, and you only wanted people to share stuff. If it's any consolation I know every day of my life that I'm probably going to hell for the sick things I have done
#50%#75%#if you cant tell the spreadsheet i use to make these things has been updated. so this is now a much faster process

anyway that put me in a Mood, and combined with my other recent post it reminded me of an experiment I’ve been pondering for years
google hits for the various permutations of ordering the individual words within ‘Spongebob Squarepants’:
Spongebob Squarepants - 35,900,000 but that one’s kinda expected, not what I’m interested in.
Squarepants Spongebob - 843,000 but see below
Bobpants Spongesquare - 3,680
Spongepants Squarebob - 2,550
Squarebob Spongepants - 989
Spongesquare Bobpants - 516
Bobsponge Squarepants - 443
Bobsponge Pantssquare - 433
Bobsquare Spongepants - 128
Bobpants Squaresponge - 104
Pantssquare Bobsponge - 83
Squaresponge Bobpants - 55
Pantsbob Squaresponge - 54
Spongepants Bobsquare - 53

Pantsbob Spongesquare - 33
Spongebob Pantssquare - 10
Spongesquare Pantsbob - 7
Squaresponge Pantsbob - 6
Squarepants Bobsponge - 5
Pantssquare Spongebob - 5
Pantssponge Bobsquare - 3
Squarebob Pantssponge - 1
Pantssponge Squarebob - 1
Squarepants Spongebob gets a ton of false positives from things like The Origin of SpongeBob SquarePants. SpongeBob SquarePants: The Complete First Season (DVD)
also literally like half of these are the titles of YTPs or other forms of youtube shitpost
here’s a chart of all the positions and how many times each word appears in them though (again, excluding those first two lines for being basically irrelevant to this exercise):
1 2 3 4
Sponge 3136 941 4835 283

Comiso, dopo un furto in una gioielleria, recuperata la refurtiva: tre denunciati
Comiso (Ragusa), dopo un furto in una gioielleria, recuperata la refurtiva: tre denunciati
Continuano senza sosta i controlli del territorio del Comando Provinciale dei Carabinieri di Ragusa, con attività di contrasto ai reati contro il patrimonio.
In particolare, nei giorni scorsi, i militari della Stazione Carabinieri di Comiso, a seguito di attività di indagine effettuata mediante la visione di filmati di sorveglianza, sono riusciti a risalire all'identità di 2 persone autori del furto consumato la notte dell'11 maggio in danno di una gioielleria di Comiso, più una terza persona che ne aveva occultato la refurtiva.
Dopo il furto, il proprietario della gioielleria aveva formalizzato la denuncia e consegnato i filmati di sorveglianza del proprio esercizio commerciale, quindi i Carabinieri, dopo aver visionato detti filmati, hanno ampliato l'area delle investigazioni acquisendo ulteriori filmati di videocamere insistenti nelle vie limitrofe l'evento riuscendo ad individuare un'abitazione sospetta.
I Carabinieri hanno così proceduto ad un controllo dell'abitazione ove veniva identificata P.C., donna vittoriese cl.89, rinvenendo occultata parte della refurtiva con ancora allegati i cartellini dei prezzi.
Per quanto emerso, avuto positivo riscontro dall'attività, hanno successivamente effettuato ulteriori controlli domiciliari presso le abitazioni di altri due uomini individuati quali autori, in particolare P.G. e A.G., entrambi vittoriesi rispettivamente di cl.63 e cl.83.
Gli accertamenti condotti hanno permesso di rinvenire ulteriore refurtiva e capi di abbigliamento compatibili con quelli indossati dagli autori del furto in gioielleria.
I militari hanno quindi sottoposto a sequestro i capi di abbigliamento e la refurtiva, in attesa di essere riconosciuta dal legittimo proprietario, nonché sottoposto le tre persone alle procedure di identificazione per poi deferire in stato di libertà i due uomini per furto aggravato alla gioielleria e la donna per ricettazione dei gioielli....
