#holy poop i went there

[werewolfbneimitzvah]

vent post. There are two stories i was told in my teenage years that even before i had a real concept of trans issues made me uninterested in discussing the supposed sacredness and safety of separated sex-based spaces.

First, when i was like 13 or 14 my PE teacher told us about a time she went to a women's public restroom, some guy was hanging out outside the bathrooms, she didn't think anything of it, went to the bathroom, and he walked in after her and like, creeped on her over the top of the stall. She was ok, she wasn't telling us this to scare us, just telling us what to do in situations like that (and iirc she was telling the whole co-ed class this, not just girls, bc it's useful for everyone), but this taught me immediately and forever that there's nothing actually keeping these spaces separate really, that anyone can be a creep in any space, and that establishing a space like that as for women only isn't actually particularly useful for safety.

Second, when i was 16 i was at an anime convention, a friendly acquaintance of mine and i ended up in conversation outside, and he showed me his bare wrist and told me he'd been kicked out. A female friend of his had stepped in dog poop outside, and between that and the stress of the convention she'd had a bit of an emotional breakdown, so being her friend, he started comforting her and ushered her into the women's restroom so they could wash the poop off her shoe together. And because he was a man who went into the women's bathroom, he got kicked out, no matter that he was doing something that was actually beneficial to a woman. Punishing a woman's friend for supporting her was supposed to... protect her somehow? This made it clear to me that a no-exceptions rule separating the sexes like that wasn't actually inherently good for everyone.

And this isn't even getting into me as a child needing to accompany my younger sister to the restroom when we were out with just my dad because she had certain support needs past the age he felt comfortable bringing her into the men's room with him. And what if I'd been born a boy, or she'd been the first born? Who's helping her then?

And of course even putting all this aside, we should always prioritize compassion and support anyway. But i never even needed to meet a trans person to know that "keeping men out of women's bathrooms" is silly nonsense. But trans people also need to pee anyway and as humans they have that right, so leave them the fuck alone. your precious women's restroom is just a fucking room with a door, holy shit give it a fucking rest, if someone is attacking you in the bathroom that's bad and if someone is in there to pee that's good and it doesn't fucking matter what their junk is or was when they were born.

a woman could have done the exact same thing to my PE teacher and it would have also been bad no matter how "supposed" to be in the restroom she was, and no one should ever be punished for helping a crying friend wash their shoe.

Anyway i know I'm speaking to like-minded folks here, i just think about those two stories literally every time bathroom gender shit comes up and it pisses me off.

Fourteen Days of MHA: Day 3

Light Fades to Rain

Okay, let's gush. Here are my feelings about the anime adaptation of chapters 360-362: season 7 episode 11. This will quickly devolve from eloquent discussion to raging madness I promise.

The opening five minutes are the weakest part of the episode. This is the only section I will lodge any complaints about, and honestly they're not that serious.

The sadomasochism got toned down :P

I kind of expected it, and honestly I get why. Even though it was scaled back, the scene was effective enough for most viewers because there's just something about seeing it animated that makes it feel visceral anyways. The detail was always going to be reduced in the art when adapted to animation, and a lot of that art could've looked really bad without the necessary detail.

But it wouldn't be on brand for me if I didn't mention that it bummed me out lol.

The only other thing I can complain about isn't even an issue with the episode, it's an error in the subtitles.

"...you're just goldfish poop next to All For One."

a) It should be "One For All," not "All For One."

b) I don't think they should have kept it as "goldfish poop." Sorry to any language purists out there, but the idiomatic meaning of this phrase in Japanese will not get picked up by an English-speaking audience--and that idiom is important. It has an impact on how Katsuki behaves going forward. I think the subtitles should have changed that to something like "a minnow in One For All's wake" or "a tag-along weakling," ANYTHING to get the point across that Tomura is trying to inflict psychological damage by telling Katsuki he'll never amount to anything on the level of One For All. That message informs the rest of the episode!

Now, if that's the only complaint I have about this whole episode--a slightly too-fast-paced-under-detailed opening scene and a bad subtitle--then I'm a happy camper. And indeed that is the only complaint I have.

This episode is a masterpiece of adaptation.

The focus on the Big Three is so good because it does such a good job of masking where the episode is going but it's perfectly in-theme because of the parallels the three of them have with Izuku and Katsuki. IT JUST WORKS MAN. I LOVE IT.

The music that plays when Katsuki mutters is an excellent choice, though I wish they could have done something to hammer the point home more that he was indeed muttering and analyzing like Izuku does. Maybe the little "mutter" text would've been dissonant in tone lol but still I wish there was a way they could've done it. I do think the point does come across in the end still, but it's just more impactful when you get to see the little "mutter" text come full circle. Yeah yeah, manga vs anime and all that.

I didn't expect the tone they went with for Jeanist's reaction to Katsuki's muttering, but it was just different not like bad or anything. I kinda liked the whole "what the fuuuuck" vibe of it. I was thinking more like "Holy shit, I'm a proud dad" tone but this works XD

Jeanist is such a dad.

HE SPARKLE. KATSUKI, HE SPARKLE. IT SO PRETTY. AT LAST.

The animators were SOOOO trying to hide the twist this episode from the anime-only viewers, they didn't even put Katsuki on the commercial bumpers, they didn't want to SPOIL THE SURPRISE. IT'S SO GOOD.

Lost it at Tenko's freak out (damn voice actor wow) and Mirio's "g-gomen." I need the dub of this scene so bad.

JEANIST MY FIRST LOVE, DAD-ING SO HARD ALL OVER THIS EPISODE LOOK AT HIM GO.

Nejire is adorable as hell and everyone in MHA is so easily read as autistic it's remarkable actually.

They really put the typography behind the plasma cannon they actually did that.

UNF THAT PIANO. THE PIANO GOES OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE THIS EPISODE, DAMN.

Also good job on making the plasma cannon blast look small and precise to contrast Katsuki's attack last episode, because Katsuki definitely has more firepower but Tamaki has the finesse to concentrate the attack for a sustained period.

BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS

Everything from BOOTS on is perfection I know you all already know that.

Jeanist's voice acting is underappreciated, I really loved him this episode.

The little special sound effect for his clusters now!!! IT MAKES ME SO EXCITED. I CAN'T WAIT TO SUPERIMPOSE IT OVER KATAMARI DAMACY NEXT SEASON

Present Mic with the La Brava's-Love-quirk soft narration omg [chef's kiss]

OKAMOTO. OKAMOTO OH MY GOD. YOU GIVING ME FEELINGS WITH YOUR VOICE CRACKS I CAN'T SLEEP

The slo-mo shots are so pretty ;_;

THEY GAVE US MORE KUDOU TOO AND IT WAS SO GOOD, THE CONNECTION WAS DRAWN SO WELL BETWEEN HIM AND KATSUKI I AM LOVING IT SO MUCH. IT ALSO HELPS THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING AUDIENCE UNDERSTAND THIS IS DEFINITELY THE AFO-DOMINANT PERSONALITY NOT TOMURA.

Even if this series ends without explaining it, I'm going to come up with my own explanation for that vestige world shit. That cannot just be symbolic afterlife bullcrap. IT MEANS SOMETHING.

He's just a boy ;_; He's just a baby boyyyyyy

GIVE HIM HIS AUTOGRAPH BY THE END OF THIS SERIES SO HELP ME--

he spin thru the air like a meme

It's time for Horikoshi's favorite character: Bakucorpse!

You wanted the blue sky gone, but at what cost?

YES I'M LOVING THE VIBE FROM THE THUNDER SOUND

Oh...oh it hurts a lot to see in color, oh he's so pale...ohhhh no

THAT ENDING SONG? NOW? HOW DARE.

That horrifying feeling of emptiness at the end :)

The joy of watching others cry over this 👀

Katsuki is the actual symbol of hope I don't care what anyone says. All hope of victory is lost with his death and the only chance of winning comes from reviving him with the literal power of hopes and prayers and wishes. He is Hope Incarnate. A very Sassy (Soft Precious) Hope Incarnate.

Adventures in Playing with Unicorn Mods 🦄

I went out mod hunting today and was rewarded with a new mod find on MTS called Unicorn Adventures by LuSimLaStars. As the unicorn addict that I am, I knew this mod had to go in my game. Right now. I also knew it had to go in with Spinning Plumbob's Unicorn Mod for Horse Ranch. I had to know if they would play well together.

Unicorn Adventures adds a variety of unicorn interactions to game play. Phone options, rabbit holes to visit, a new lot trait, AND it changes the name of Sylvan Glade to Unicornville - which, holy unicorn poop, made me laugh so hard. It was the name change to Sylvan Glade that made me want to test this mod with the Unicorn Mod installed. You go to the Sylvan Glade to find unicorns you see.

Long story short, these mods play nice together. I just go to Unicornville to find unicorns now, you jive?

Sims can start their unicorn adventure by buying a Unicornology book or three from a bookshelf. Its right there among the skill books when you look to read it! This gets your sim the Unicornology skill. Each level of the skill unlocks new interactions and options for your sim to participate in. Woot!

When your sim builds the Unicornology skill, they unlock a new phone menu - Sparkles. In there are a variety of unicorn activities your sim can do. Also, travel activities to send your sims to rabbit holes! Despite this screenshot, going to the cinema to watch a Pony movie really is just a walk-off-the-lot rabbithole. Hey, comes with a custom buff though!

There is a whole chat menu that opens up as your sim learns Unicornology. You can ramble at other sims about unicorns all day long if you want! There is also supposed to be a pie menu on the computer to run a unicorn blog and write a unicorn book - as of today (May 17th, 2024) I can't get this to show up for me. I stripped every mod from the game except this and the xml injector and still no computer options. I let the creator know about that. Could be just a me thing though, who knows.

That Uni stuffed animal that toddlers can babble at? You know the one. The Unicorn Adventure mod makes that into the portal to Sylvan Glade Unicornville. Click the view option on it a few times until other options begin to show up. Its a text based adventure to get in, just like Sylvan Glade has always been.

You can still use the classic tree portal in Willow Creek as well, but having the Uni as a portal in your sim's house is pretty useful. Once you make it to Sylvan Glade Unicornville, those with the Unicorn Mod installed can search for unicorns just like they always have.

The unicorn, Gary (thank you, game, for that magical random name) showed up after a few searches and we are all set to have a real unicorn in our family and talk about unicorns ad nauseam with every dang nabbed sim we meet. 🦄🦄🦄

[smalltimidbean]

Holy shit you like cult of the lamb too??? It's literally one of my favorite games! How are you enjoying the update so far?

(P.S. I've talked here a few times and just thought of a fitting name: Lamb Anon)

YAYA! It's one of my favourite games too! Apparently I have a fondness for several cute aesthetic but dark themed games lkfklfd

But I like the update so far! Mild spoilers I guess, but it's mostly what had already been mentioned in the announcements/patches etc; Blunderbuss is lots of fun, all the outfits are so cute and the NPC that gives you new designs is cute too! It is very funny to me that follower levels got capped to ten bc most of my guys were like level 50 fdkjhfdk. Sozo's a menace, but I still love them (and glad they are back, bc I was distressed to find them dead for the first time fgdfg). I haven't found any of the supposed lore yet, but I am looking!!! (But it would probably help if I went on crusades more - I just like the cult management part more!!!)

AND THE BABIES, RAUGH THE BABIES!!! THEY'RE SO SMALL AND CUTE, AND THEY POOP SO MUCH, PLEASE THERE IS SO MUCHHHHH- But yes, I am having fun, and I am going to go play it some more, but please have this;

(Also, Lamb Anon is a very cute name! We got a Bee and we got a Lamb hehe)

11.29.24 Friday--- Freaky Friday???

3:23 am

Still,have windblow...

I'm awakened by the windblow force,hoping it is something positive... My heart is still worrying so much... I hope Uncle DD is real...

Again, this will be the saddest part of my life if my nana can't survive this trial that I knew there are closer people that I know from the past and considered friends these days that have the power to do the act of religious switching with a fair heart but it will be the saddest if they are just traitor,for so long....I hope they deserve the mystery in the world...

When I say I wanna leave Cavite, it doesn't mean abandoning my nana and some good people on me... It is just that when you are looking for help or progress somewhere and most specially when I knew that my heart will never be happy here...

It doesn't mean that leaving my nana... I didn't mean it that way....

I pray and pray for the recovery of my nana...

3:35 am

Still,have windblow...

Yeah! I didn't know that I'm gonna hate Thursday forever... One thing if my nana can't be back in time... Should I hate Thursday,forever???.

Yesterday, it wasn't really a crime but it could be by a far like magic or spells or some can be act of service a faithfulness to your vow on someone, giving value to the friendship and acknowledging God's wisdom but hoping there are real friends somewhere...

I was and still sad for so long coz they didn't get me like on some old issues on some old fakers friends, that probably they didn't want me around...

3:56 am

Still, have windblow...

I don't know... It shocked me lastnight... Around 11pm I was here watching on youtube or scanning and choosing what to watch on Netflix. My nana was just there at the other side, watching as well on her android TV. Then, I fell asleep, it was weird that around 1am that I thought it was 4am coz she was always like that every Thursday morning... My nana used to be a protestant before she became a Church Of Christ member coz of my grand father.

But! My belief religion is as well an organization, you just need to find where you will be fitted or if you think they have good views about life and about everything in this world and thoughts about the value of existence.

1am, I was awakened by a weird sound of I thought nana was just stubborn to poops here in our bathroom in spite of the toilet bowl is clogged. Then, few seconds I called her coz that was the usual thing that I do,when she is in the bathroom I always shout to check her, if everything is ohkay... I know the holy magical spirit is guiding her and she can manage but why? What happened last night? I shouted and I didn't hear her voice but a weird I thought it was diarrhea then I went to the bathroom door and I couldn't open and seeing her lying down sidely inside the bathroom floor.

I panicked, I worried and still worrying so much... I wanted to cry,I wanted to shout... Seeing my nana lying down on the bathroom floor that I wanna do a first aid help but I couldn't coz I couldn't push the door to open coz it will definetely injured my nana... So, I shouted to Uncle Jun that hey! Call help mama is lying inside the bathroom, she is not talking. My inside is really crying that God! Oh! God sprinkled some miracles... I couldn't open the door my nana was there, I didn't know what happened if she was still gonna be ohkay or what...

My inside was really crying....Uncle Jun got panicked as well, asked why,what happened?He said open the door, I said I couldn't open it... Hurry Uncle Jun get some help! Get some help, nana is slightly unconscious already, vomiting and not talking. He went to baranggay asked help then people from baranggay went here then we decided to destroy the bathroom door coz we can't push it coz nana will be injured.

The emergency from baranggay put my nana on the stretecher... I really wanna cry... At the same time I was praying that God, please just extend coz we deserve it,my nana deserves it... I know she is religious and childish...

We went to Emergency of De La Salle Hospital. Then, we negotiated my post yesterday... It was hellish that I was praying God, extend and she deserves to be on Genesis... I was praying, I was worrying.... Still, worrying... Still, praying... Still, praying deep within me...

Can we do Freaky Friday for the chinese friends that I'm not able to reach these days that I really wanna cry... That I do believe on their smoke ritual, I know it is really strong when you wanna save someone and do the religious switching... I respect their faith, I know it is real.... I feel embarass coz we didn't have the chance to prove the friendship coz I have my own problems these days here in my family....

I'm worrying so much... Again, this will be the saddest part of my life if my nana can't be back in time....I mean her total senses and most specially her existence...

Some back-story:

But yesterday Uncle DD said that he was as well hospitalized from the past months, that we didn't know....

Supposed to be Habibi our arab neighbour helped us yesterday coz I went out as well to look for help and I saw him in the car on our street, that time... But then Uncle Jun went back with the baranggay people like Kuya Rico.

Uncle DD just got back few minutes ago, from Makati Med.

9:40 am

Still,have windblow...

I'm drinking my drip coffee now given by Kookai and Lorenz that we bought in Cafe France.

I'm solemn today, praying that nana will recover in a lil while... I just wanna take the moment seriously...Again, this will be the saddest part of my life if my nana can't go back to her existence. Knowing that there are people that I knew from the past and closer new people who I hope considered me as their friends... In spite of the old issues on my old fakers friends that it was a sad thing to know that they are not happy me being around them...

Is Mitch aware of everything? I don't have any guilty feelings on Mitch but when the situation got serious, I'm always proud of her that she is a doctor but what happened??? I know how fierce she is and how to control her in a way, I hope she will still respect me on that point...

I don't wanna sound comedy here but I'm asking help on angels, begging,praying and please2x and hoping that "videocosh" is genuine....I'm hoping that the said payout is real until 10th of December, that will be my 1 month with videocosh... Not easy, it is more than a couch potatoe and I appreciate being a fan coz I need to watch every video just to earn and it is really tiring for so many pauses and advertisement... It is really a burn-out for me... I still wanna get an actual job somewhere. I badly need money. My final pay is just a small amount....

One important thing there is a missing bag of my nana, the one that has a rose design I think so coz I gave that to her... There are some cash there, I also gave some from my final pay... I wonder who got it??

Missing bag of my nana???

10:08 am

Still,have windblow...

Uncle Jun called me to wake up Uncle DD to fetch them in ER in Makati Med... Coz they are the only one, left there... He mentioned PJ? Then DD... Probably, his senses has lapses...

Is there a money??? I'm worrying... They are having argument about the money.... My biological mother is talking to Uncle DD now...

Is nana ohkay now to go home ( I mean here in our house not home2x )??? I hope,I have genuine angels and friends... Do we need Help or me ??? Or just me? I do love my nana...

2:08 pm

Still,have windblow...

I texted Uncle Jun and Biological Mother asking them how's nana? Still, waiting for their reply...

Done,watching "Violent Night" it is about a wealthy family celebrate their Christmas on their private mansion but then there are people who wanted to kill them just to get the money on their family vault. These bad people are able to get inside their mansion house. It is a good thing that Santa is there and became their hero...

Hmm... I wanted Santa to heal my nana before Christmas. I wanted a wealth and career and love life with sincere love and stability on mental health,stability on his emotion on me and stability if ever I need a pocket to lean on...

I wanted my cousin-white to save me... I still need to get a job and money... Still, self-pitying. I still feel ugly and fat.

2:29 pm

Still,have windblow...

I don't like Borgy's group my bracelet is missing here and some gold rings... I guess there are relatives who are linking with Borgy's group.

My bracelet is missing as well as my gold rings... I don't like Borgy's group who I think got the rituals here in Cavite.

I don't like Borgy Manotoc if ever he is linking with the ritual here with some relatives... I don't like they are stealing stuff from me since 2007...

Ooopps! I see it here.... It is health bracelet and pawnable...

The rose bag that I gave to nana is still missing but will check again... But the gray bag that I gave as well to nana was carried by my biological mother in the hospital yesterday...

The missing mug is still missing....There were some missing stuff here... It is stressful...

3:09 pm

Still,have windblow...

My mind is over-load this afternoon thinking of my nana, praying and hoping for her recovery after few days... Before Christmas?

I'm longing to have spinach Pizza... Whew! We are broke? Are we all broke? It is really heart breaking...

Me? Thinking of future... Still, I feel hurt on some old fakers friends who didn't want me around them...

I still feel jealous on my cousin-white if I'm his 2nd choice! I wanna kill his entire family if I'm not his favorite cousin! If I'm not the one... I need some answers...

Another thing, when nana will be back here, we need ac, we need quality folding bed...

Is my cousin-white happy with Mitch's group? I will have my speeches and will say I feel jealous...

I feel bad not anyone in my family has a link on my cousin-white, probably the 2nd cousin has a link which is I can't accept it!!!

3:35 pm

Still,have windblow...

I feel jealous thinking that my cousin-white is meeting someone from here... I wanna break that link coz I feel jealous... Why they are women around him??? I feel bad and impatient... I need a bf now...

5:35 pm

Still,have windblow...

Thinking of nana, praying that she will recover in a lil while...

I still have sciatica pain...Whew! I didn't do any stretching today coz I feel low coz of what happened to nana....There is a worrying emotion plus an over-lapping emotion about my cousin-white and my future... Thinking of money... I feel jealous as well being paranoid on my cousin-white on my Aunt Ten/Tin...

6:41 pm

Still,have windblow...

Watching Daniel Marsh vlogs, hmm... He is artist kind and over-friendly on women... I just wanna admire him... No as a bf to be... This is just a talk if I will choose a bf... No to be a bf... I feel jealous.... It is just that I feel jealous...

Still,have windblow... I have awareness... I don't know what to do... My mind is splitting...

I feel jealous weird... It is like an explosion of jealousy most specially on my missing cousin-white on my Aunt Ten/Tin it feels weird....

8:29 pm

Still,have windblow...

Waiting for confirmation on Maco when they will visit again coz Uncle Jun sent me a pictures already of the wealthy group, coz I don't have a car....

I will just ask a favour to ride in with them coz it is far and I don't wanna commute... I don't have a car here...

I know it will take few weeks more coz Nana needs to fully rest in the hospital for her to achieve the full recovery.... I hope they are genuine people there...

I need to visit again my nana, but asking a favour to ride in with them for now... I have personal problems on money and career... I feel so left out as always here, lately...

I'm not happy that I feel panicky, one of the reasons I feel bad on my cousin-white... We are totally different now here in the family. I have complex as well even on his family though Aunt Ten/Tin is really my aunt on flesh and blood.

8:41 pm

Still,have windblow...

Why, my emotion now is really troubled here in my family... It is really shaking...

It is not just jealousy but pain....Coz if it is just jealousy, it is so easy to explain like I feel like my jealousy of emotion will explode!

I wanna have a car... I wanna travel it's been here for 17 years... I shouldn't throw tantrums now but this is my complex here in my own family.

But again, this will be the saddest part of my life if my nana will not back on her existence on our genesis chapter... Knowing that some closer relatives and friends and even new people who have the power of religious switching to save a deserving life but if they will not do it,it will be the saddest thing... Some words are left unsaid even to some old fakers friends who got the mystery in this world. Like great power comes with great responsibility of Spider Man!

9:21 pm

Still,have windblow...

So, many things to say here... Whew! I feel irritated,complexities here in the family and even on the family of my cousin-white to the point that we are an actual cousin-white with a percentage of our blood and flesh... Of course, we are entering to the world of maturity and mingling with wiser and wicked matured people... We are in the jungle, mine it is just a jungle on psychological and emotional state, that way I can compete love on other women... But them and probably my cousin-white is really on the actual jungle where he actually met and blended with each other in real life including touching the physical state of reality... Other than EXTRA toppings on the ice cream of our 2nd degree cousin.

Ok I’m not getting a pet. I can’t do it. I literally can’t sleep well because this cat I’m cat sitting constantly is shifting around at night and really likes to crawl under my blankets as I’m sleeping and it’s keeping me up. Like I’m already sensitive to the garbage collecting noises around me but this also drives me crazy 😭.

Right now, I woke up at 4am because I heard her shuffling around and she zoomed toward my bed for pets but as I touch her I feel something wet on my hands and of course it’s her poop!!!!!!!! Then I went to the kitchen area to wash my hands and I’m hit with the NASTIEST RANCID smell and I unlid the liter box and welp she doesn’t cover it up. So I did and the smell hits me even harder and I literally wanted to die holy fuck. I cant eat in my kitchen area anymore. Absolutely disgusting and I’m not sure what to do about this!

Learning a hard lesson and I still have her for another four days 😭. I’ll miss her ultimately I know it but I want my old life back!!! I don’t want to wake up at 4am to clean up cat poop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just want to sleep bruv!!!!!!

[kandyshoppe]

Hey, uh, I have an Oc that is a vet (surgeon more specifically) but I don’t really know about how they should act about it or the experiences so, do you have any advice on that front?

Like, I just take more example from doctors, my mother and brother are and they are both very, uh, (￣︿￣) about it.

Like they tell stories and experiences constantly when we are eating, like how my mother saved a kid that got shot point blank in the head (kids are very resilient like holy fuck), my brother is studying still but he already has a few experiences and such. So I take more note that those in medicine are just very not overreactive to emergency situations.

But that is just human vets, which humans can be very crazy but it’s very different from animals.

So I would like to know if vets are also like that? Just “Emergency? Okay let’s start” and have many things under control.

Also what are your crazy vet student experiences?

Also your job is very cool.

Alright! So! First! I mainly did paperwork while interning. I only went with boss a few times as an extra set of hands for graphing, and I am not interning anymore because of summer vacation (I only actually interned last semester to be honest, cause I needed to focus on class work this last semester)

Never take a vet to polite dinner, we WILL just start talking about the grossest things while casually eating. Being in the medical field, you need a strong stomach, so sometimes we forget not everyone wants to hear about us looking through poop to find worms or giving a cow an enema. We’re DISGUSTING. We regularly deal with being covered in fluids all day cause we don’t have time for a shower! Got another appointment in ten minutes!

Vets also have STRONG opinions on different animals, though they don’t all match up. I would rather shoot myself in the leg than deal with another racehorse again, but my boss adores horses! That being said, dogs tend to fall in similar categories on breeds, every husky I’ve ever met has ripped their catheter out, and every pug has been a screaming diva.

Some of the shared opinions are cats have the best names, bird owners are their own breed, no dog owner truly knows how much of a devil their dog is, cows are inherently stupid, and horses would murder you for one corn chip.

Now, I am not interning right now as summer has started, and it was for a class, but vets are very busy during spring, fall, and every single full moon. Nobody knows what happens but animals get weird every full moon! Summer tends to fluctuate depending on the type of vet you are. Surgeons probably wouldn’t see as much of a increase vs farm vet (which is what I’m going for). Most surgery’s are scheduled, but there are emergency surgeries sometimes needed. Which leads to my next point.

I was never apart of any emergency situations since I’m still learning, but I have seen my boss just FULL SPRINT across the clinic, and I was told to take care of the front. (The dog was okay for anyone wondering, she had an emergency c section and all puppies were okay!) the only close to an emergency was a sudden seizure someone’s goat had, not a fainting goat, she had milk fever. That was very much « work mode » while also trying to stay compassionate to the owner and animal. I bet working in back with an emergency would be similar to how medical professionals might feel, but if the owner is there you have to make sure to put up a brave front.

It’s different from being a medical doctor as owners are such a big part of the job, your bedside manner has to be amazing! I’ve wanted to strangle owners for neglect, hug them during last visits, or just stare confused at them for saying the DUMBEST things (DOGS AND CATS A CARNIVORES I SWEAR TO HIGH HEAVEN!) and find a balance between brutal honesty, and softness during rough times. If your dog will probably die, I’m gonna tell you that, but I’ll give options.

Another thing is while many animals COULD live through last injuries, such as broken jaws, rarely do owners have the time or resources to heal their pet to a point of actually living vs surviving. Is it possible? Yes. But rarely feasible. Sometimes it’s better to let your pet go, take a few days if you can to give them the best time ever, feed them chocolate before the visit, and give lots of good boy/girl kisses.

Lastly, farm vets look less at keeping animals super comfortable vs fixing the problem as fast as possible. Obviously we do avoid putting animals in pain, but sometimes you have to yank a tooth, or disinfect a wound right then and there. It’s a delicate balance of caring for the animal, and understanding that farmers need cheap but long term results for their own livelihood.

Look up vetblr here as that has a lot more, actually trained, graduated and qualified individuals than me. The biggest thing is for vets, you live and breathe animals. You aren’t paid that well, school is expensive, it is taxing on your body, and mentally and emotionally exhausting. Hell, half the vets I know will take money out of their own pockets to lower costs for surgeries needed for pets! It’s HARD, and I personally suggest looking at other animal based careers for something to fall back on. (Also, I hate petstores! May they all burn!)

pinned About™ post because i guess this is how we must do it now

in my 20’s i used to take way too many sleep aids (bad) and they would give me really weird dreams. my favorite one was a dream where it was raining and there was a ratty little dog outside that crawled into a storm drain, so i was like oh no! i have to save the dog! i ran out of my house, crawled into the storm drain as well, and ran through the tunnels trying to find the dog. when i found the dog, it was perched on top of some kind of platform in the middle of a tunnel, just barely above the rushing water. it was illuminated like a holy being by a gentle beam of light from the sewer heavens. i was relieved but then the dog just started pooping water full force for a solid half a minute as i watched like enough that the water level went up before it abruptly flopped over, presumably dead. then i woke myself up because i laughed too loud.

anyway i like ocs, rpgs, rpgs but of the tabletop variety mostly in theory, and The Horrors. it seems like i have really bad taste in the Media i consume. i sometimes think about disappearing forever through various means like getting sent to antarctica or walking into the mountains, both of which i fully know would inevitably cause the end of me, but only sometimes. do you remember what you used to do online before social media consumed the world because i don’t and that scares me. i like elden ring a normal amount.

Vent no. 24 (BAD)

Things are AWFUL RIGHT NOW. So I’m having to go through 4 straight days if not skipping any m34ls and having to have my parents approve my meals, which means they have to be high c4l. And it has been BAD. NOT GOOD. I’ve been suffering basically everyday and I have no clue how I somehow still lost w31ght from the last time that I got we1gh3d. I swear I look so bad rn I don’t even want to do anything anymore even though I had plans that I was actually excited for today. So what happened was my mom we1gh3d me and saw that I went down from last time and so naturally she makes me eat an entire muffin before breakfast and then proceeds to give me a m3al that has at the very least 700-860 c4l0r1es. What the freak. I don’t know if it’s just dysmorphia or if I actually look this bad because holy god do I look ever awful recently, and it’s only gonna get worse I just know they won’t stop until I ga1n something. I’m pooped guys…

Also on a side note, I used to do jumping jacks a lot to bvrn off what I had. I did this because it was the easiest thing for me to do while in my own house, but now I can’t do that because it started hurting my feet and I looked up if people with low 🦴 density should do this type of 3x3rc1se, and I found out that it’s actually really bad for people with my condition and can cause fractures :( so now I’m stuck not knowing how much I am bvrn1ng off when I 3x3rc1s3

Also side note: I hate having to write with numbers bc I’m scared of being t worded (I actually don’t know if it helps at all I’ve just seen others do it)

Hell

[97-liners]

I listened to the on my youth album last year and I loved it kinda made me cry so I am interested in getting to know them but I am extremely lost in where to start :( any advice?

yeah wayv'll do that to you.

i'm kind of insane about wayv its what i used to be known for on tumblr before i deleted my nct blog so, i'm gonna ramble below the cut

click read more for recs/thoughts on wayv music, content, etc etc

FIRST OF ALL. wayv is my favorite nct unit. just some basic overview:

they debuted in january of 2019 as a cpop group completely separate from nct, under label v (sm entertainment but in disguise and in china)

the connection to nct was always there -- winwin was a member of nct 127 since debut (even before johnny and doyoung was added, and jungwoo was added to 127 to "replace" him) and was never removed from 127 on paper. ten debuted with t7s unit, which was nct's overall debut. kun performed without you (chinese version) when he was a trainee

they debuted with regular (chinese version), which was initially a 127 song. they also had come back (chinese version) on their debut mini, which was also originally a 127 song. technically their first song was dream launch

wayzennies don't consider regular their real debut because fucking sm couldn't be assed to let them debut with their own song smh we hate sm here

their first comeback and their debut in wayzennies' hearts was take off

after that, moonwalk, love talk, turn back time, bad alive, kick back, then they went on a cursed haitus, then they broke hiatus with phantom and now, omy

dream launch, take off, moonwalk, and turn back time are their lore music videos. wayv is the only nct unit to have lore btw!

resonance (nct 2020) was a huge era for us because that was the first time they were officially acknowledged as a unit of nct. before that, fans had to put together compilations of nct members mentioning wayv members, renjun got in trouble for mentioning winwin's name in a vlive once, and taeyong once had a vlive where he said "wayv members are here" (but he had to whisper) and showed them in the distance and waved and everything and the fandom went wild

you really had to be there, all nct units (including wayv) changed their profile pictures for 2020 at the same time and the teaser for the resonance project included shots of wayv. i almost cried.

now. lemme talk about music

wayv is one of the music units, definitely. 127 and wayv both have very distinctive musical identities that are reflected throughout their discography

btw, nct units used to have interludes on their full albums. it's more of a yearly full nct thing now, but it was used in regular (127), neo zone (127), awaken the world (wayv), and then resonance (2020) to kind of pull their entire concept together with the signature nct chime. nct interludes are also just some good music !!!

wayv as a unit has a very dramatic sound, the take off/moonwalk/turn back time holy trinity definitely is very consistent in sound and has prominent rock/orchestral elements in the instrumental plus the signature guitar dance break

a lot of their songs are produced by ldn noise and moonshine

on my youth is actually a departure from their old sound. moonlight sounds most wayv 1.0 in their album. the rest of the album is definitely wayv 2.0, which is great because it kind of signifies their transformation and renewal post-dozen

other

if ur chinese: kun and xiaojun's cover of red bean

when they debuted they had a project called rainbow v where they created their own content

wayv has their own version of nct u where they break out into subunits. kun & xiaojun back to you, ten & yangyang low low

they have iconic pets. they even have pet merch. my little friends bias is bella, obviously. just look her up on youtube, she peed on livestream more than once and also has pooped on the sm practice room couches before, also is afraid of her own reflection

winformation - in which winwin interviews every member

wayv on weekly idol

they had two seasons of wayvision on seezn but it's a korean show and, while certain parts are fun, it was a little awkward. right after debuting they had a show called wayv's dream plan which was filmed in china and a lot more fun

of course because i'm me, if you're chinese speaking you should check out their huya lives. i'm not sure that they're subbed in english tho

for translations i'd recommend bun bun, wayv china station, and faith (she's actually my favorite, she does a great job at translating colloquial language and remaining faithful to the 'vibe' of what was said in chinese)

Ghosts of Evolution, Connie Barlow, 2010

A song for kids on plants that co-evolved with the megafauna of the Pleistocene, or even older; they made giant seeds that could be swallowed and expelled elsewhere by mastodons or giant sloths, but would not fit the digestive tract of smaller organisms. The seed dispersers are gone, but the plants -- durian, avocado, honey locust -- remain.

Lyrics:

Walking down the city street, orange balls at my feet; small carrion-feeding dinosaurs are taking a treat. They've been eating ginkgo fruit since the middle Jurassic: eat 'em up, dinos, else they're squashed by all of this traffic.

Ghosts, ghosts, I'm seeing ghosts of evolution; Deep Time Eyes give me fossil resolution. Ghosts, ghosts, I'm seeing monsters everywhere; anachronistic fruits and thorns are giving me a scare.

Learn to see a giant sloth, or big-tusked mastodon, take a trip to a local grocery store with daddy or with mom. Look for bins of big fruits with their humongous seeds: just who could swallow and poop those pits? Who could those big fruits feed?

Ponder avocado before it's guacamole: to plant those pits in a mound of poop takes a big butt, holy-moly! Who's living there today, in the hills of Peru, whose anal sphincter could handle the job that ground sloths used to do? Or maybe it was Toxodon who co-evolved that dark green enigma? Chucky-D found Toxy's skulls and bones in the plains of Argentina.

Ghosts, ghosts...

What about those juicy mango fruits, evolved in tropical Asia? Who could swallow and poop those pits without getting massive hip displasia? Well, certainly elephants, and rhinoceros, but they're not ghosts (at least not yet) extinct because of us.

Ghosts, ghosts...

Now supermarkets sell America's genus Maclura, but horses ate those green soft balls, of that I can assure ya. Anachronistic those fruits became when horses went extinct here in the Americas, post-Pleistocene, I think. But the Spaniards brought the horses back and loosed them on the land: Maclura trees have a partner now, they can make another stand.

I'm seeing ghosts, ghosts...

The saddest plant has got to be our lovely honey locust: its massive seed-pods have no friends I can see in fossil focus. And what about its trunk of thorns? Now tell me what that's for! Dreaming tusks of mastodons, stripping bark to eat once more, In a cold bleak winter, where nothing else is green... Oh no, those times have long since past, this is the Holocene!

You can still find these awesome trees bedecked in pods and thorns in the wilds of the prairie States, looking so forlorn. So shut your eyes in horror when in a parking lot; those trees were bred by us to have no pods to rot; nothing messy at all to sweep up or clot, no thorns to poke a passerby or skewer a tot.

Ghosts, ghosts... Are giving me a scare... I see them everywhere...

Trolls Band Together Review

Huh. Didn’t think I’d be doing this. But here we are. I watched the new trolls movie on Saturday and have rewatched three times on ‘legal’ sites to see how I felt about it.

And I give it, a 7.3/10. Now while that doesn’t sound the best, my ratings go like this.

0-Toy Story 4

.5-This is the worst piece of shit I have ever seen

1-who thought this was a good idea

1.5-this is fricking terrible

2-this is a bad movie

2.5-I can see the vision but the writing is terrible

3-if you squint, you can see one good thing about this film

3.5-this is the type of film where, you have to get drunk to enjoy

4-not good but not terrible

4.5-I feel nothing towards this movie

5-mediocrity at its finest

5.5-this is a decent movie

6-not bad

6.5-I enjoyed this more then I should

7-This is an enjoyable movie I’d be willing to watch it multiple times

7.5-This is a good movie

8-Probably will obsess over this movie for a while

8.5-this is a great movie

9-This a fantastic movie, holy sh-

9.5-This will be on my top five

10-this is a masterpiece aka Toy Story 3

Now that you know that the rating is good, let me now talk about why I feel like I like this movie.

Cons

Let’s get the negative out of the way before. Quick warning, there will be spoilers so if you haven’t seen the movie and want to, go watch it before my review. Now that’s out of the way, the cons

I’m going to be honest I have a few minor flaws for example: some of the dialogue is a bit off and could’ve been fixed without changing much, the whole talk about Branch and Poppy getting married could’ve been cut, I found Tiny Diamond flat, but these are just personal pet peeves.

I also had a small problem with the ending there’s nothing bad about it but Branch having been in another band doesn’t make sense since he became emo depressed when he was a small baby. And if you wanna say that he joined a band before his grandma died when he was still a baby that still doesn’t make much sense. And if you wanna argue that he joined after the first movie, you can’t tell me poppy didn’t find and if she did, that would lead her to know about BroZone’s.

My real problem is the Poppy’s long lost sister reveal. This section of the movie dragged out for so freaking long. Viva, while interesting, feels so out of place. They took like almost more then twenty minutes of screen time where I feel like it could have been devoted to more Brozone family bonding to make it so when we had the third act breakup more heartbreaking. While you could argue that they needed Viva and Gretchen and the king(I can’t remember his name) in the movie to help Poppy and Branch, you really are going to tell me that Poppy and Branch couldn’t find a different method to get on the boat?

Overall, the biggest problem I have is that I wish they cut Viva out of the movie, simply to tighten up the pacing and to create more time for Branch to get along with his brothers and for to see more of his brothers’ flaws so we could’ve built up to a more dramatic fight scene. If you still want the scene with Gretchen and Viva and the king, then I feel like it should’ve been a short. I personally think that it would’ve worked better as a short where the bergen king and queen went on a honeymoon and witness the damage the Bergens did to the trolls.

Pros

Each movie has its cons and pros and this movie had a decent amount of pros. I’m going to let you guys on a secret. I watched the Wish movie, and I don’t have any major problems like I did with this movie. Do you wanna know what I rated it? 4.5/10. Why did I rate it lower than this movie? Because unlike Wish, I had so much fun with this movie.

This movie was investing and fun and the rule for me is if a movie is so fun that I can ignore some dumb things it does for the first and second watch, then it will automatically get a 4/10 for me.

So other pros? The humor was decent, nothing that me laugh out loud, but some made me smile and I was SO glad to know that there was no poop or fart jokes. I also loved the character designs of Branch’s brothers. (Especially Floyd for…reasons) they look a look like him but the same time don’t which is exactly how me and my sister look.

I also look how depending on which creature we are interacting with, the props that, that character has, matches a different vibe. When we meet Brandy, Spruce’s extremely tall wife, the props such as the cookies look plastic and childlike. That also goes for her design and her kids design. Everything looks as if a 4-6 year old played with it and had unrestricted access to glitter glue. The same goes to the trolls. Everything is whimsy and cheesy, just like they are. Poppy’s scrap book and their homes really shows how small and outdated they are compared to the other creatures. This also applies to Velvet and Veneer. They give 80’s vibes and look so different compared to the other characters. Even though they look like a different artist designed each of the creatures, they all work and look great together not out of place.

Speaking of Velvet and Veneer, I loved them as villains. Not only do they have a good motive that’s not a sad backstory nor they want to just be more evil for no reason, they are iconic. I love their one liners and how stretchy they are. While they couldn’t sing at all, they were gorgeous and I love how they aren’t exactly alike. Veneer reminds me of that one meme of “I can excuse racism but I draw the line at animal cruelty” except replace racism as torture and kidnapping and replace animal cruelty as killing.

Another part I like is Poppy. Not gonna lie I found Poppy slightly annoying in the first movie. But she was funny, sarcastic, and was street smart. However, in the second movie she was so unbearable. Not to mention her and her relationship drama with Branch was boring in the second movie.

In the third she was so much more fun and I didn’t wanna gouge my eyes out when she was being optimistic. It wasn’t over the top and it was helpful in helping Branch. Speaking of Branch, the moment they share when Branch is leaving his brothers is so cute. I’m so glad they didn’t decide to have a third act break up with Poppy with Branch. It was so much more refreshing and it made me find the ship so much more sweeter.

My last pro is the music. While the Trolls movies just do covers, they are damn good at doing covers. Especially when they sang to stop Velvet and Veneer. I loved the beginning and you can never go wrong with Justine Timberlake. He has my favorite vocals out of all the cast.

In conclusion, this movie was by no means ground breaking or brilliant. But this was a good movie and I enjoyed it a lot.

Thank you for me Ted-talk.

Digimon 02 the beginning review:

it was a fun time. I had to take Uber and the fare was rather expensive after it was all said and done. But it was worth it. The Uber driver ended up being the same person there and back! He was a gaming nerd and enjoyed anime too. Theater experience was good too. Got some yummy chocolate peanuts and even extra card packs after the movie.

Now my thoughts on the movie. I’ll be putting all spoilers under the read more.

The banter between daisuke and miyako never gets old lol

Rui sounds so dang emo telling the others it's his problem and blah blah blah

Rui does says he thinks he is the first in the sub. WHich people can play around with if he really was the first or not. I still think Rui was a chosen child that just didn't realize that other chosen existed. and the digital world wasn't aware of it because Rui never went to the digital world.

Hawkmon flocking in front of Rui was hilarious. Looked like a real bird being obnoxious.

...until hawkmon actually knocked the eyepatch off showing the creepy digimon eye!

When it shows Daisuke holding Rui's hand and assuring him to let them help... I can't help but to notice how short Rui is. Holy cow

Daisuke encouraging Rui's recklessness is sure something lol

Daisuke suggesting if they fly on Imperialdramon fast enough, the humans won't see them. Reminds me of the naruto meme at area 51 XXD “ they can’t hit us if we run fast enough”

RUi running towards lil' Rui and Ukkomon gives Magica Madoka vibes with Homura trying to stop madoka from being a magical girl.

Miyako's light tinted glasses during the computer scene. Haha “all according to keikaku!”

Hikari does indeed say homeostatsis in the japanese version! tri. is Canon folks.

"Ukkomon is a special Digimon..." Heard that one before o_o;;

In the Ukkomon and Rui meeting, Rui accidentally says Unkkomon. Unko being poop in Japanese. Sadly a funny joke lost in translation.

Some wondered if the bruises are actual physical bruises... Rui covers his head. I'd say he does get hit from time to time...

When the characters are talking about the bonds with their Digimon and having to work through conflicts, it really reminded me of part 5 when they tell Meiko the same thing. Kind of nice to get a 02 version of that.

I had to hide my face from the body horror shit. THe eye. Rui's eye. GAPING HOLE IN UKKOMON'S HEAD. Just transferring an eye like it's nothing. This isn't Naruto! That's not how it works!

I had a feeling Hikari said more of "That poor thing" about ukkomon. It feels different actually watching the movie with context than reading other reviews. Hikari could just felt all it wanted to do was make Rui happy.

When Ukkomon goes big, it sings the creepiest happy birthday. Geeeez

I saw a lot of reviews saying the characcters didn't get anything and they were just there. I think they got some nice character moments. THe back and forth about killing Ukkomon for example. It's the 02 kids and they are older now. Their issues are going to be more to the point. It was still good to see. I think the movie did a really good job with that. Despite what people think.

Just a small amount of Kenyako. It made me happy.

Miyako's Bingo!

Loved the 6 way evo. Just cool to see. Glad we got to see their evolutions.

I can't get over Takeru driving a CAR. He drives and Hikari sits up front. The other two in back while Daisuke, Ken, and Rui rode on Imperialdramon. It's just an amusing image. I can't get over it.

There are many shots of this giant digimon eye sticking out of Rui's small head. It creeps me out and they show it a lot.

THe animation for the fights are so dang good. Reviews did not overexaggerate that fact.

I may need to rewatch 02, but where do Daisuke and Ken hang out on fighter mode? I know it's on the back usually but... Also really cool how the inside of Imperialdramon looks like a command room. Really cool..

HAH THE FLIRTING REMARK. Made me smile. *sighs* even after all these years.. It's still just them.

The zoom in on Rui's face and that eye. Wny...

Even as Rui and Ukkomon talk.. the comical eye is there...

The snow fight was gorgeous and fun little moments too. Seeing the international kids all grown up is wonderful. We even see Rosa! Which I think is fantastic.

I was pretty happy with this movie. I don’t think i need a grand series like tri. To flash characters out. They’ve all had their moments in various ways.

[pin-crusher2000]

1: What is the most awkward experience each character has had

2: Are there any words each character really likes to say either as a catchphrase or just a random thing they say sometimes

3: If the young titans had a prank war who would be on each side what would the pranks entail and how far would it escalate

4: Would any of the young titans accept positions on the justice league or titans if asked (Like if they were exclusively asked and none of the other members could go with them)

5: Does the team have a vacation spot they like to go to together?

1:

Jake: walking on dick and Kory making out in the kitchen (tongues)

Mar’i: barges in Jake’s room to tell him breakfast is ready, only to see Jake dancing and singing to The Clash in his underwear. (It’s white with red hearts)

Robert: accidentally farted in class (XD hard to come up with stuff)

Lian: shot an arrow at her uncle oille’s windshield.

Irey: her best friend Maxine whispered a really funny joke in class causing her to laugh out loud and disturbs the class

Jai: trying to see if his electric powers can charge his phone, cause the whole house to go dark.

Cerdian: swinging his trident around playfully and accidentally hit some vases.

2:

Jake: holy (beep)!

That’s it XD

3: (since there is seven members, Cerdian is out to be the judge)

Team anti-cooties: Jake, Robert, and Jai

Team girls rule, boys drool: Mar’i, Lian, and Irey.

Pranks: fake gags like poop and vomit, toy spiders in fridge and in the shower, whipped and shaving cream for smacking, prank calls, and best of all: whoopie cushion.

It went to far when the boys dumped a bucket full of water on the girls XD

4: just like in any “friendship is power” movies/shows, they would politely rejected the offer because when Young Titans are together: nothing can spilt them apart and they are family.

5: Disney land/world, universal studios, and maybe Hawaii and Paris. Also a small island away from everybody else; just them and a beach house

Thanks for the questions @ireywestnumber1fan :D

I love them! :D

Let me know if you got more! 

[thedawningofthehour]

Is there a reason Splinter calls Donnie by his color more often than his brothers?? I remember in doth, Donnie felt like Splinter never liked his name, because the artist Donatello wasn't part of the 'holy trinity' of the renaissance or something, and that Splinter wanted a daughter. Is this true, or is Donnie's perspective in that scene somewhat warped, and Splinter just does it to tease his son? This was a while ago but idk, I just liked this detail a lot.

Donnie's definitely talking from his own insecurities about his place on the team.

I went from being vehemently against Splinter calling them by their colors (because he's SPLINTER, he calls his boys by their full names! It's just wrong otherwise!) to seeing the colors as beloved childhood nicknames that he still uses because those are his babies. (though I still don't like him referring to them by their shortened names-he will use their full names or the stupid nickname he has for them, no in-between) The way I imagine it, he had four turtle babies. He was a single dad. His vision wasn't that great to begin with-it might have even gotten worse after his mutation, as rats have terrible vision. And he was fucking tired. He needed some kind of system because he was calling Leo and Donnie Stripes and Stripes 2 in his head, and no it was not consistent who was Stripes 2. Turtles have cloacae, which means their sexual organs are inside and all their species generally don't display secondary sexual characteristics at birth, so he didn't know if they were males or females. So he slapped some colors on them and called it a day. When they actually started sleeping through the night and he could poop in peace, then he started thinking about real names.

Canonically, he calls Donnie by his color the most. I can't find it now or I'd link it but someone did go through the series and catalogue it. He uses Purple the most, closely followed by Blue. He only rarely calls Raph Red, and actually never calls Mikey Orange. I kind of get it for the others-orange is more difficult to pronounce that blue or red, and Raph and red are close enough that he made the switch pretty easily. But purple? It's the same amount of syllables as Donnie and is actually more difficult to pronounce. (though Splinter is not a native English speaker so what would be easiest for me to say would not necessarily be easiest for him, to be fair)

I can't really chalk this up to favoritism because honestly, while Splinter loves all his kids equally and his favorite kid shifts from day to day based on shit like who's amusing him the most and who ate the last poptart, I do feel like he generally likes Donnie and Mikey a little more. So the fact that he almost always calls Donnie by his color but exclusively uses Mikey's real name doesn't really make sense.

So in my canon, Donnie was the last one he sexed, so he called him by nothing but his color the longest. (I think when I did my research Leo should have actually been the last one to start displaying secondary sexual characteristics, but whatever)

And he did want at least one daughter-not because he preferred one or the other, but he would have liked a mix. He wasn't being weirdly gendered about it, this is Lou Jitsu for fuck's sake-his kids played with dolls and racecars, they watched Barbie movies and then some anime mech show. He didn't give a fuck about gender roles and he certainly didn't force them on his kids. But Splinter is also an older dad and grew up in a very different culture. He didn't have siblings, didn't really have friends with kids. So there were definitely times he was sitting at his kitchen table while his four sons ran around screaming their heads off and thought "it would be nice to have some little girls."
