What was it like to be an Aztec kid? According to this document, not so great. This page of the Codex Mendoza shows us a boy (left) and girl (right) at ages 11-14. We see the naughty tweens punished at ages 11 by being held over burning chili peppers until they cry. Then, at age 12, the boy is tied up until he behaves, while the girl does chores around the house. By ages 13 and 14, they’ve apparently learned to behave: the boy is helpfully collecting reeds and fishing while the girl makes tortillas and weaves.

Everything I learn about Rose Wilder Lane makes me more and more aware that she was a hilariously outrageous person who needs a movie made about her immediately.

After leaving Missouri, she moves to California and marries a real-estate guy who once tried to get her to help him con the railroad.

She gets hired at a San Francisco newspaper known for its yellow journalism, where she does things like writing a series of columns featuring the "real-life stories of a police detective" who, in real life, was a high-end jewel thief.

Her first book is a first-person "autobiography" of Charlie Chaplin that she (after a few interviews with Chaplin) completely made up, and that Charlie Chaplin immediately threatened to sue her publisher for.

Her second book is a biography of Jack London, which his wife only reluctantly allowed her to write because Rose presented herself as "someone who had never written for the newspapers before and needs a chance to break into the magazines." This book was also almost entirely fictional, and her publisher also almost got sued over it.

Third biography is the first-ever biography of Herbert Hoover, also a heavily-fictionalized account. (Doesn't seem to have been sued for this one. Steps in the right direction!)

Traveled as a reporter through Europe (to places like Albania and Poland) post-WWI. (If we want to talk about legal things that she did).

Wrote a book based on Laura's late-childhood pioneer experiences while Laura was writing the early books of the Little House series, and did not tell Laura about it. (Laura was ticked off).

Kept trying to insert a story into Laura's memoirs (and Little House on the Prairie) casting Pa as a member of a posse that hunted down the infamous (and never-caught) serial-killing Bender family (despite the fact that this was historically impossible). (It got to the point that Laura herself told this story to the public as an example of "a true story I couldn't out in my children's book." Despite the fact, I say again, that this was historically impossible).

During WWII, endured a minor incident (it involved one cop coming to her house) where the FBI investigated her as a potential communist based on a postcard she sent that was critical of the government. Turned this into a short story that presented herself as the righteously-outraged American citizen fighting against an oppressive government, and used this to whip up a nationwide media campaign against J. Edgar Hoover for spying on American citizens.

Flew to Vietnam as a war reporter when she was in her seventies.

its stupid that almost all of the beta kids live in the US. jade doesnt but her grandpa is from the US i believe? how is it that theres a handful of kids fated to save the universe or whatever and theyre ALLL american. it would make way more sense if they were scattered all over the globe.

so far i see dave as still living in texas because he very much feels like a product of the american public school system and american individualism. jade also still lives on her island thats fine her gpa is just polynesian to me, and then john lives in hong kong and rose lives in brazil.

rose specifically lives in the southern high planes of brazil bc thats where it snows and for some reason rose living in a snowy location feels important to her upbringing to me? maybe just because of the flashbacks to her playing in the snow. oh also because it makes sense if she lives in a more isolated location.

i think grandpa harley is maori and was originally born in new zealand wow oh my god as im typing this im imagining jade w a kiwi accent and that feels so fitting. anyways i think he sailed out from NZ and found hellmurder island out in the pacific on his travels.

i also like the idea of rose and dave meeting online and dave is fluent in spanish (bro is irish american/mexican) and in english while rose is fluent in portuguese and knows some english. they communicate through spanglish and portuganglish(???)and rose gets better ar conversational english this way. once she starts getting the hang of it (which is very fast) she starts reading more and more english books and quickly accumulates a far bigger vocabulary than dave because dave does not fucking read books like that.

when they talk mainly spanish and portuguese in the beginning dave is like “portuguese speakers sound like theyre trying to speak spanish while having a stroke you’re giving me a headache” and rose is like “sounds like a you problem i understand your spanish just fine” lol.

dave has a weird assortment of spanish vocab that he knows outside of the basics because his only exposure to spanish is from his bro and shitty public school spanish classes.

also bro was raised on dragon ball z and thats part of the reason he styles his hair the way he does. bro has the goku jesus mexican flag hanging in their living room.

✨️⚘️¡¡FELIZ DIA DE MUERTOS!!⚘️✨️

El día de muertos es una de mis festividades favoritas sin duda alguna, la amo ❤️‍🩹💖✨️. Siempre es bonito sentir esa ilusión de que aquellos que ya partieron regresen a visitarnos, yo creo que es un abrazo para el alma y el corazón ❤️‍🩹🫂✨️.

El día de muertos se divide en varios días dependiendo de que tipo de familiares tengas; me refiero a si te visitan mascotas, niños o adultos. Usualmente se menciona como la ofrenda se pone el 2 de noviembre. ¿Ustedes pusieron la suya? :3.

||-----------------------◇♡◇------------------------||

Bueno como yo amo esta festividades planee este mini cómic. Lo veo como una situación especial que podría llegar a pasar en mi AU, seria algo asi:

Al navegar por Internet, Wukong encontraría un video sobre ✨️ 'El día de muertos' ✨️. En un principio pensaría en seguir deslizándose sin más, hasta que se menciona que es el día en que los fallecidos regrasan a visitar a los que seguimos vivos. Un día de reunión entre el más haya y el plano terrenal.

Se puso curioso de inmedito, así que comenzó a investigar más; podía sentir como la idea de que sus hermanos, maestro y hasta su estrellita pudieran venir a verlo comenzaba a llenarlo de una sutil chispa de esperanza.

Al final no pudo evitar ilusionarse con el tema y sin dudarlo comenzó a conseguir lo necesario para poner una ofrenda, para cuando llego el 2 de noviembre ya estaba listo y puso su propia altar.

El asunto fue laborioso por que queria que fuera especial, así que la mayoría de lo que puso en el altar lo hizo él mismo, con sus propias manos. El papel picado lo hizo él, la comida, el té, incluso las figuras que representaban a los visitantes, las tallo en madera por que no tenía fotos.

Se sentía como un niño pequeño, emocionado por que tal vez si creía lo suficiente podría tenerlos de vuelta aunque sea por una noche ❤️‍🩹.

||-----------------------◇♡◇------------------------||

Esta cancion se la puse de fondo en mis otras rese sociales, la verdad ame hacer este mini cómic.

En el proceso termine dándole su diseño a mi changuito mayor >v<, luego lo subo completo ;3.

Ame hacer este mini cómic 💖, espero que hayan tenido un bonito día de muertos aventureros :3✨️, hasta pronto ⚘️✨️.
