This is the prophet Telemachus Au to me
Apollo: Odysseus killed my grandson so now I’m going to curse his son with horrific visions of his father’s suffering.
Ten year old Telemachus, newly traumatized: Now I know that my father’s alive and what he really looks like! Thank you for this blessing lord Apollo! :D
Apollo: …*Sigh* wasn’t supposed to be a blessing. *murmured grumbling* Kids too cute to hate… I’ll just.. turn it into a blessing. I guess. You’re welcome little prince.
Apollo then got hopelessly attached to baby Telemachus eventually having shared custody with Athena (and Hermes)

Ngl definitely thinking back to the cartoon-making chapter now we know that Twilight doesn't realise studying/pursuit of knowledge can be fun. No wonder the cartoon he made sucked. He was approaching it purely from the educational angle with zero idea of the entertainment aspect that makes edutainment programming effective.
It's not that he was really bad at writing the fun parts. He plain didn't realise there were meant to be any in the first place for it to work.
Copying the aesthetics with no understanding of what was underneath.

and another thing about vocal synth fans: we will always find some adult male voicebank to turn into a funny little clown for our amusement. some guy to communally bully in our talkloids, the miserable straightman to the shenanigans, the sad little freak punchline to our jokes. it happened to kaito. it happened to gakupo. it happened genbu. it even happened a bit to kevin (although he seems to have looped around somehow). and it will happen to you too, frimomen. it will happen to you too.
#hell its already begun. or maybe he was born for this role. his origins being that of which they are#the other day i saw a favourite meal announcing dragon parody 'list of past girlfriends' with frimomen#and of course the joke was him going silent for the listing part <3 a classic but it still got me LOL#i dont know why we need to do this. i feel it too though. i see a grown ass man vocal synth and im like I NEED to make him swagless#child and teen vocal synths are mostly safe from our wrath (although we've definitely done a good bit of len bullying)#but the second i see a guy who pays his taxes i NEED to make fun of him <3 <3 <3#a vocal synth tradition. its a tradition#i dunno i was kinda thinking about genbus characterization and how in the japanese fanbase he kind of varies from what ive seen#sometimes hes a nice and calm guy with a tsundere edge. sometimes hes a goofy loud straightman to shenanigans#but overwhelmingly in the english speaking world in talkloids we turn him into this high energy beloved little freak LOL#and i love all characterizations. my own personal version is kind of all combined LOL hes friendly but a little too hype#to me he seems chill at first but is like 0-100 in like seconds <3 like his voicebank <3 <3 <3 i think he feels every emotion so so much#and absolutely suited to the straightman to hijinks role with his grumpier edge when hes embarassed#i also sometimes like to give him a bit of an unearned ego sometimes because of voicebank deprecation#hes clunky but he was the first!!! he was the first!!! hes not owned!!!! he slowly turns into a corncob#thats another characterization that mostly comes from the english speaking side LOL#TO ME genbu is like if ll nico was trying to put on a nice calm guy exterior instead of a cutesy idol exterior#which might be why genbu's becoming my favourite LOL nico was always my fav.....#going back to our favourite little guys to bully i will say nowadays kaito isnt bullied as much. because we have gakupo to bully instead#the bullying can pass on. frimomen. it can be inherited frimomen. watch out frimomen

i’m so tired of neglected child/pressured golden child sibling dynamics. give me neglected golden child—a kid who was a genius but neglected in everything except the things they’re good at. sleep, joy, hobbies, stolen for the thing they have a chance to gain glory for.
and then give me neglected, rebellious, and free child. give me a child who rebels and pushes against limits that aren’t there, because the parents are too busy setting up a tiny cage for the golden child. they have everything they want except for their parent’s attention, and it drives them insane.

I can easily measure how shit some parents are by listening their excuse for not vaccinating their kids

*watching the OWCA Files*
Perry being stuck with his gang of trainee agents, one of whom is Doofenshmirtz, is just making me laugh because yeah this is exactly how it feels to work with little kids, except, surprisingly, there's been less biting. But we're only partway through episode one, so there's still time. But yeah, most of them are nonverbal, the one that is verbal won't stop talking, one knows a handful of sentences and keeps repeating them, everyone's distracted, one kid laughs at everything-
Yeah, watching Perry try to do my job is really funny. xD

I’m re-reading Male Colors for the first time in a couple years for Bleach fic and how HOW H O W did I miss that Jizō as a deity was heavily associated with homosexuality.
Was my bleach brain turned ALL the way off in my first read????? Unacceptable! Highlighter has been activated! Marinating as we speak!!

reading no home.. its good. the title section the author does where the characters are slowly revealed as the arc progresses is a really interesting visual choice, as are what layers they put over what character.

when the fic mentions linguistics and is just... two steps off from being correct?
#like ok kidfic. theres a child and theyre speaking in proper “grammatical” english#and the adult character goes “thats not how kids talk” but we dont even know how old this kid is#and like. ok so they use fancy vocab. thats cause british kids are weird to americans not because theyre a kid#like after age 7 most kids are at least vaguely in the realm of grammatical correctness. I spoke fluently by age 4#my point is that it wildly varies and also that I'm vaguely sure based on other fics that this kid is like 10#and 10 years olds are absolutely past the critical age period where they do the actual grammatical incorrectness#like sure theyre kids. but they can still speak the language correctly#and considering who that particular kid grew up with of course they speak fancy#also important note is that this fandom usually makes kid and co autistic and that definitely can affect this stuff#again. me saying complete (albiet not grammatical) sentences when I was 1.5 years old and fully speaking by age 4#just. saying “kids cant talk like that. I know that from linguistics”??? no u dont??#I am taking like 3 classes on critical period next semester its one of my favorite things to study#I wanna write one of my final papers for my degree on the lexical categories of morphemes in the context of children#(specifically. because I was unhinged about how “”dis-appear“ is opposite of ”appear“ so ”dis“ means opposite!” at age 8)#((baffled all the english teachers and did Not know what linguistics was until 2 years ago when I decided to major in it))#linguistics posting

A cry for help from Gaza
My name is Salem, I am 26 years old. I am married to Hadeel, she is 25 years old, and we have two beautiful children: Laila (5 years old) and Bakr (five months old). We live in the northern part of Gaza.
Laila and Bakr are my heartbeat, the light of my life, and my everything.
Tumblr media
The horrific story of the recent war in Gaza
Since the beginning of the last war in Gaza, our home has been completely destroyed, forcing us to be displaced. We had to move more than 10 times to find safety. During this harrowing journey, we faced extreme hunger and malnutrition that almost claimed the lives of me and my children. In addition, we have been exposed to many serious infectious diseases and epidemics.
Before: This is our homeland, our dream, and our promising future.
Tumblr media
Unbearable hardships
Every day I have to travel long distances just to get water, and stand in lines for hours to get food. My children's mental health deteriorated due to the war, their education was interrupted, and they suffered from catastrophic hunger that almost claimed their lives.
After: This is our house, built with our sweat and effort, and it was completely destroyed.
Tumblr media
The right to a peaceful life
My children deserve to live a peaceful life free of fear and anxiety. I dream of your help to support my family and escape this genocide. Your help means the world to me and my children.
The cost of arranging travel for an adult outside Gaza currently varies
Between $5,000 and $7,000, and $2,500 for each child, in addition to a cost of living of $500 per month.
How can you help?
Your donations can be a beacon of hope for us. Every dollar can help save my children's lives and give them a chance to live in peace. Your prayers for us to overcome this ordeal and lift the siege are greatly needed
Laila: My beloved, the closest to my heart, and my little one.
Tumblr media
Bakr: My child who came during this horrific war.
Tumblr media
Donate now and help us get to safety
May God reward you greatly for your generosity.
Background on the Gaza war
The war in Gaza has left hundreds of thousands of victims, destroyed infrastructure, and left many homeless. The humanitarian situation in the region has reached critical levels, with severe shortages of basic necessities such as food, water and health care. Children are the most affected, as they have lost their sense of security, education and normal life.
Your support is our hope
Your donation is the light that can guide us towards a better future. Don't miss the chance to be part of a story that saves a family suffering from unimaginable hardships.
Donate now and make hope possible
Thank you for your support and kindness.
My gratitude
Salem and family

A group of cultists summon the Ghost King. Or, they tried to at least.
Instead what they got was a boy, an actual child, standing in the circle with a dead tired closed eyed face. Holding a mug of -from what they saw and assumed- warm milk. Practically smothered in a pretty fluffy and elegant cloak that was far larger than the child was.
"G'night, or is it morning here? I don't know man, time between dimensions is weird." The child said, muttering the rest of his sentence before he took a sip from his cup. "Hello? Yea, hello. I'm your mandated summoned royal because the King is away on uh..." He paused, taking another sip. "Sick... Leave. Yea, sick leave. So I'm here to help you with whatever you want I guess. Just so you know though, I don't vibe with the whole genocide, murder or offering the souls of either yourselves or others thing."
He took another sip from his cup, swaying sleepily on his feet slightly as he waited for the cultists to state their demands.
Unaware of the fact that said cultists were currently experiencing varying levels of psychic damage.
"Uh, not to be rude." The Ghost Prince pipped up after a few, rather long, moments of silence. "But can you hurry up? I really want to go to sleep after this."
