1965

This is the B-side of "Ace Of Spades", a cover of the Charles Clark and Willie Dixon Band track first realeased in 1958. The Milkshakes, amongst many other bands/singers, also covered it in 1984. They drew on classic rock 'n' roll and blues, blending the past with the raw energy of the 80's garage punk scene.

hi!! if you're from the UK, please help to stop the badger cull!

HERE (website link) is the petition page on the Badger Trust website! the site provides plenty of information about badgers in the uk and what the cull is about.

for those who prefer visual or audio information, Here (video link) is a short video describing the latest news of Labour bringing back the badger cull on Protect The Wild's YouTube channel.

also for those who prefer visual or audio information, i recommend watching the BBC documentary “Brian May: The Badgers, the Farmers and Me” which goes into depth on this topic! it is 59 minutes long.

to anyone not in the UK, i politely ask if you could share this around to help protect this important and iconic british species!!

seeing emily's old valyria thoughts is making me think about how . . . the targaryens weren't even the strongest family in valyria?? they were dragonlords, yes. but they were nowhere near being a top family?? and the power of their house is just so deeply separate from every westerosi house because of the dragons (like, they're just on another level in terms of . . . well every notion/school of power). but, imagine if one of the top families had settled in westeros instead of the targaryens???

A ZeLink Trio, Just for You <3

Been working on a series of ZeLink stories set between the events of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and I'm really happy with how things are going! It's episodic, so each piece has a pretty different flavor depending on whatcha might be interested in - the through-line being these Hylian goobers getting more of the personal time that they deserve.

If you're interested in checking out the whole series, please enjoy:

There's plenty to look forward to as I continue bashing my head against Tears' endless well of content. But if you need more convincing, perhaps in the form of some story samples, would you care to... Descend into the depths with me?

Coping - A more mature opening act, "Coping" explores some of the hard emotions of being ripped from one's regular life and flung 100 years into the future. Link and Zelda have yet to get over the loss of their friends, or any lingering regrets around their short time together. Luckily, they still have one another to lean on.

Zelda sniffles, and turns her head to rub her nose against her grounded arm.

"But you know what's really helped me through it?" She asks with a more nasally tone as her nose is buried.

Link's expression softens as Zelda looks up to meet his gaze. She manages to pull a smile through the pain that tugs down her whole face.

"Knowing there's one other person who truly understands how I feel." Her hand desperately grasps for his under the covers, and Link weaves their fingers together. Zelda's smile grows. "Someone who I know I can learn to cope through all these awful feelings with. Together."

Link nods. "Together."

Royal Tea - The first thing I did in Tears of the Kingdom was run to Gerudo Town so I could see what Riju was doing with those swords. I was not disappointed. Decided to write a piece playing up some more of older brother/younger sister vibes I feel like Link and Riju would have developed up over the years - as well as canonize a few glaring omissions.

All three pairs of eyes are drawn to the guest as her clanking golden heels cross the threshold, passing from sunlight which paints Gerudo Highlands in a shimmering heat wave to the warm orange glow of candlelight bouncing off plaster walls and natural rock. Buliara carries a rugged stone tray with a gilded rim.

"He is the only voe to step foot in this room over the last century." Buliara's heavy contralto voice perfectly fits her seven-foot tree trunk of a frame, though it noticeable clashes with the baby-blue shade of her lipstick.

"Or was, as the case may be."

Link offers an apologetic wave as the captain of the guard, Riju's right-hand, places her tray on the table between them. Buliara's hawkish glare matches the impish face adorning her headpiece.

Recipe to Please a Princess - I like pasta. Zelda likes pasta. So Link cook'a the pasta for a very lovely date night in Hateno. Please enjoy this "short" fic that ballooned way out of control once I realized I could design a fake recipe on the page. Unlimited power.

Moving backward, Link ducks into an alcove beneath the stairs as he straightens the dark grey shawl over his embroidered blue tunic, trying not to disturb the Hylian broach holding that ensemble together.

He gets down on one knee to dig through a squared wooden chest, and pulls out an arrow with a bulbous red pouch tied over the head.

"Ya-ha-ha," Link mutters as he starts twirling the shaft around his middle finger.

Zelda often chastises him for playing with objects that could blow the house to smithereens. But he has yet to drop a bomb arrow, and has no intention of starting.

What she didn't know wouldn't hurt her.

'Yet Sunak’s major U-turn on the government’s climate commitments signified a new shift within the Conservative party: delayed timelines. No longer is this government just not doing enough in terms of policy; it’s now actively choosing to defer deadlines set by previous governments.'

After Cop28, know this: Sunak and his rightwing allies around the world have no interest in saving our planet | Diyora Shadijanova | The Guardian

I love Barbie but this is a bit much.

[fioreofthemarch]

alright, but did she PAY him???

Who was Zelda’s PA and were they compensated fairly because my girl was:

Running a school

Discovering new species

Remodelling her home

Making Link new clothes

Leading a new research division

Giving out recipes (for humans and goats)

Building a plant nursery

Creating memorials for the Calamity

Coordinating kingdom-wide rebuild efforts

AND investigating the new Gloom mist

All right before she disappeared. Her calendar must have been whack.
