"you block people over politics?" i block people for saying they think sebastian vettel is overrated and/or a bad driver

I think it's a rumour started by a parody joke account, but the way we all heard a variation of "F1 driver Franco Colapinto hits it off with Norwegian Princess" and immediately went:

Hogwarts House Sorting Results

The BoB characters have been sorted into their Hogwarts houses by the community!

For each house, I’ve organized the list in order of how many votes each character got. For example, the character with the largest percentage of Gryffindor votes is at the top of the Gryffindor list, while characters who narrowly made it into Gryffindor are closer to the bottom. The characters at the top of each list are the best representations of their house on the show.

So, my friends were great and ran around collecting things and talking to the devs they met about my food project and asking John Epler about Bellara's favorite food.

But, the signed cookbook arrived, and I got the hard-earned buttons my friends collected for me, the mini poster, the signatures, and the wonderful artwork of Bull they made for me (definitely can't tell my favorite character), and wanted to share! (Ignore the Solas box, I'm temporarily holding the buttons in there).

Did you know that there are non mammalian pokemon that are able to nurse and produce milk? Pokemon like Alcreamie produce milk through milk ducts. Alcreamie have their milk ducts in their hand, and Milcery drink from there.

Gastrodon produce milk too, despite not being mammalian. Scientists aren't fully sure as to why, since no other Gastropods produce milk.

Pokemon like Prinplup, Empoleon, the Pidove line and Flamigo produce crop milk, which is something that both male and females of these species make and feed through a thing on their neck called the crop.

Spidops and Ariados mothers produce milk. I find this out a couple of days ago. Not sure how I feel about that. It's near their abdomens. It's also has a lot of protein apparently.

Luvdisc as well. Male and female Luvdisc produce a slime from their skin similar to milk, which their young drink. Since they live in oceans, their milk is very thick and protein rich.

I think this is a more well known fact, but Sharpedo produce milk as well. But what many don't know is that Gabite and Garchomp are also nursing pokemon.

Shuckle don't produce milk, but they feed their young their berry juice.

The Whimsicott line are also nursing pokemon, but they produce nectar; not milk.

the wording of the international streamer award is actually weird as fuck like the way it's written it specifies streamer who caters to an international/non-north american audience but thats fucking obviously stupid and should be re-written. and besides that speed clearly does not cater to an international audience, he caters to americans who want to watch american streamers go to other places. like way to be fucking disingenuous

[raceweek]

One thing I wish we'd gotten a little more of with Taash is the exploration of gender in the various cultures they're aligned with.

For one, I'm a big believer in the idea that gender fuckery is a lot more common in the Tal-Vashoth specifically because of the way the Qun is so rigid about gender. For Qunari, gender isn't just a personal thing you simply are, it's a role you fulfill.

Even with the concept of Aqun-athlok, Qunari gender is incredibly binary and rooted in their fundamental belief system as a group that things are as they are meant to be. "Asit tal-eb." One can choose to accept the life they have, or struggle and suffer unnecessarily against nature.

For the Tal-Vashoth, leaving the Qun is often a rejection of that ideology, and an assertion that things aren't always the way they're meant to be. The role that they were assigned was one they left behind, and the struggle comes in finding a way to define yourself outside of the Qun.

Some would cling to what they know, for sure. But many would also seek out new things and adapt to their new life. They might try a new name, new words to fix the new changes in their life, and they might find the new parts of Thedas they like and reincorporate that into themselves to make it feel easier to fit somewhere new.

They might find that their role can be theirs to define, and with that definition comes a new understanding of what it means to be.

Gender is as much cultural as it is personal. Our understanding of gender is wired into our language and guided by our practice, and I think Taash's story could've been enriched so much more by the exploration of how those kinds of things differed between their cultures.

The Qunari may not have a word for being non-binary, but maybe the Tal-Vashoth do. Maybe they took the Rivaini term for that experience and translated it into some kind of bastardised Qunlat, something linking themselves to their history and their future.

Maybe when Taash begins to deconstruct the idea of themselves, they don't have to choose between being Rivaini or being Qunari, because the truth is that they're not one or the other. They're both and neither at the same time. They're a Vashoth who grew up in Rivain and is influenced in equal measure by their Tal-Vashoth mother who still emotionally follows the Qun, and the people of Rivain they grew up around.

Maybe they have other Trans and Queer Tal-Vashoth to lean on a little closer to home, rather than having to lean on others like the Crows or Shadow Dragons who are just as distant and strange to them as the Qun itself.

Maybe, just maybe, Taash gets to explore what it means for them to be non-binary and for that exploration to have some actual connection to the cultural issues they struggle with as well.
