fwb with satoru that leads to unplanned pregnancy that leads to you keeping it but you and satoru agreeing to coparent because it’s healthier to have a coparenting situation than be forced into a relationship because of a kid except satoru only agreed to coparent because you brought up and he couldn’t stand the idea of losing you before you got pregnant, much less now that you’re carrying his kid and now he’d kinda look like an opportunistic dick if he tried to make a move on you just because you’re pregnant so he doesn’t and it’s torture but he loves you so he’ll do anything to stay beside you but it’s proving to be reaaaaaally hard to just stay beside you and smile when you’re holding your tiny son in your hands and all satoru can think about is how he wants to kiss you call you his wife but you’re not even his girlfriend

Most ppl on tumblr are aware of the Bechdel-Wallace test, but a lesser known method to gauge the presence of thoughtful characterization in any given narrative is the Baker-Morrison test, which focuses not on female characters, but rather on supporting characters in Obi-Wan-centric fics (particularly members of the 212th division of the GAR or, more broadly, the clones). For example, if an Obi-Wan-centric fic features a scene in which two canonically named clones speak to each other about something unrelated to Obi-Wan (or, in some iterarions of the definition, something unrelated to Obi-Wan AND his wellbeing), then the aforementioned fic is said to have passed the Baker-Morrison test. In this essay I shall

So i decided to just read parts of the book of Bill *at* my sister instead, and she said “did he… did he sleep with a triangle” at the karaoke part lol. She finally understands what I meant when I was explaining Billford and had to keep saying “just… just read the book” when she disagreed LOL

Weird Horsegirl Ganondorf fun fact of today is that in Ocarina of Time Ganondorf rides without a bridle! Even in the concept art his horse lacks any bit or reigns (as does Epona, and every other horse).
What it mainly means is that the N64 didn't have the power to mess with an unnecessary complex item to render -- but what it could be interpreted to mean for the sake of fandom fun is that the horses are raised and trained to be ridden bridleless.
Not to be up my own headcanons about horses being a big thing in Gerudo Valley and Malon's mom being Gerudo and there being a reason that Gan's horse is specified as a pure black Gerudo Stallion because other Gerudo horses don't look like that but -- have you seen the dressings on the other horses?
All of them, even Zelda's horse, have a call to Gerudo patterning. Except for Epona, who was only able to be approached, touched, and ridden by Link and presumably Malon herself.
It's no secret that the Gerudo are more or less pulled from African and Arabic cultures, but fun fact about Arabian horses, they used to be given as prized gifts to royalty and important political figures.
So if they are inspired by Arabian horse history --
Although the specific area of the Arabian Peninsula where the breed originated can’t be pinpointed, it is widely accepted that around 2500 B.C., the Bedouin people were responsible for developing the desert horses that became the ancestors of the Arabian horse. The nomads’ keen horse sense and meticulous attention to proper care and breeding created an animal that could withstand the harsh environment of the desert, surviving extreme heat and cold with little water and the food they shared with their handlers. A life of travel also required horses with great lung capacity, endurance and stamina. (x)
It's very possible that all of the horses in OoT have ancestry in Gerudo Valley!

My beloved best friend of several years, who bought me Minecraft the winter before COVID after I mentioned I hadn’t played since before there were horses, got severely motion sick when playing minecraft for too long.
We were both aware of this, and took breaks or shortened our play sessions accordingly.
However, a few days ago, at the end of one of those sessions when my friend wasn’t feeling well, we traveled through a Nether portal.
“Have you turned off your motion effects? And the camera bobbing?”
My beloved friend, who has been playing this game more consistently for many more years than me, did not know what those were. We navigate to my friend’s accessibility settings and toggle off portal motion effects and camera bobbing.
Lo and behold minecraft is playable for my friend again. Check accessibility settings for every game you play and see what options you have. Do not suffer if you can help it 👍
