What if Time hadn't experienced the War of Era's yet? Okay let me explain this weird what if, so like with some people's head cannons, Wind goes in the middle or the end of Linked Universe. But like, so when Wind gets dragged to the War of Era's, Time gets dragged too, and with shenanigans, Time is back to 11 year old self (or how ever old you think Young link is at the end of Majora's mask) separated from Wind by a day late.

But you might be thinking, wait but what about the Fierce Deity marks on Time's face? Claim. Fierce Deity claim on his grumpy son to protect him. (Fierce Dadity all the way baby!) So like when Wind or now Tune starts treating Time like a kid, because Wind doesn't know that Mask is Time. Commander Link (or well baby Warriors; I heard he wasnt actually a captain) ends up as Mask's saving grace from certain things, as baby!Warriors is protective, but not to the extreme point because he too is a child soldier. (So like Time can now relate to Wind with being babied, and is prepared to protect young Warriors from everything even himself with the help of Fierce Dadity on his side)

So daurung a fit of child rage, Time yells "I'm an adult stop babying me!" And of course Tune goes serious, pinches the bridge of his nose, and all mysterious says. "If you're really an adult then your ready to hear this" And then explains the second most traumatizing thing a guardian gave give their child. The birds and the bees.

Tldr: Wind gives Mask the "talk" even though Mask is a de-aged Time who has all of his memories and still is actually a 30 something old man.

Time did scream when Wind explained it, he never wanted to hear it again. Don't worry Baby!Warriors did wrap him in his scarf for comfort.

Shit I might post art of this brb

so before he left Fred put down an oxeye daisy and a poppy

Oxeye daisies represent patience

Poppies represent sleep, peace and death

thinking. thinking about how the parents have been patient. thinking about they need to stay patient, and that fit and phil have been two of the most patient ones.

thinking about how both phil and fit have had sleep related phenomenons lately, with Phil being locked inside a cage and waking up, believing he had just been sleeping. And then Fit also sleeping for a whole week.

They’re also related to peace in a way, both having been chaotic in the past but getting to the island got them to become more peaceful people. Even saying that they aren’t who they used to be, that the island changed them.

Phil is so so obviously connected to death I don’t think I have to go into it, but also poppies specifically? That’s something connected to Tallulah. Fit is also connected to death, maybe partially because he’s so close to Phil but also because 2b2t is absolutely full of it

idk maybe i’m reading into this too much! brainworms! maybe it means nothing! but i think it does, especially because of the whole thing with Fred mentioning flower language to Tubbo.

Also daisies are white and Ramon uses white signs

Oni's have multiple eyes bc they live in darkness and need to see better + more efficiently, and that's why Lloyd wears long sleeves 90% of the time.

Okay okay okay, hear me out.

So, there are three monochrome royals

And Frederick has three bullies

And then Whitney separated himself from the other two

And in the gala we only see two bullies

Hint hint, nudge nudge

Why do you think they always bite a vein? Because vein = straw. :)

do vampires just use their teeth to make a puncture wound and then suck, or are their fangs like a straw

i havent slept in three days

And now for something completely different.

This is the ADHD Teapot. I made it in a ceramics class a few years ago. I use it to explain executive dysfunction to people who haven’t come across the term before (and those who think of ADHD mostly as Hyperactive Eight Year Old Boy Syndrome).

So, most people’s brains are like a regular shaped teapot with a single spout. Let’s say that your time, energy, focus etc is the liquid you have in the teapot. Your executive function is the spout, that directs the tea into the specific cup you want to fill-aka the task that you’re meant to be doing. Spills happen occasionally, but generally most of the tea goes in the right cup.

If you have executive dysfunction, (a symptom of ADHD, trauma, autism, schizophrenia etc.) you have multiple spouts going in different directions. You can try pointing one of them at your chosen cup and you will probably get some liquid in there, perhaps you will even fill it right up (finish the task). But meanwhile, tea is also pouring out of several other places and not going where you want it. If you have another container nearby, perhaps some of it will end up in there. But quite a lot of it is going to end up on the floor and accomplish nothing.

And at the end of the day you’ll have filled one or two cups ( or sometimes not even one) compared to the five or six that somebody with the same sized teapot (but only one spout) has filled, and everyone wonders why you’re so bad at getting tea poured, and why you make such a mess in the process.

One day I’d like to spend more time learning pottery and create a really technically good fucked up little adhd teapot. But that’s a long way off since i currently live in the outback and the nearest pottery workshop is some 400km away. But I figure that for now, it might be a useful or interesting metaphor to somebody even in its rough draft form.

This post is the cup I filled instead of cleaning my house btw.

Another banger from the "we can always tell" crowd 💀

I need to say something and I need y'all to be calm

if it isn't actively bad or harmful, no representation should be called "too simple" or "too surface level"

I have a whole argument for this about the barbie movie but today I wanna talk about a show called "the babysitters club" on Netflix

(obligatory disclaimer that I watched only two episodes of this show so if it's super problematic I'm sorry) (yes. I know it's based on a book, this is about the show)

this is a silly 8+ show that my 9 year old sister is watching and it manages to tackle so many complex topics in such an easy way. basic premise is these 13 year old girls have a babysitting agency.

in one episode, a girl babysits this transfem kid. the approach is super simple, with the kid saying stuff like "oh no, those are my old boy clothes, these are my girl clothes". they have to go to the doctor and everyone is calling the kid by her dead name and using he/him and this 13 year old snaps at like a group of doctors and they all listen to her. it's pure fantasy and any person versed in trans theory would point out a bunch of mistakes.

but after watching this episode, my little sister started switching to my name instead of my dead name and intercalating he/him pronouns when talking about me.

one of the 13 years old is a diabetic and sometimes her whole personality is taken over by that. but she has this episode where she pushes herself to her limit and passes out and talks about being in a coma for a while because of not recognizing the limits of her disability.

and this allowed my 9 year old sister to understand me better when I say "I really want to play with you but right now my body physically can't do that" (I'm disabled). she has even asked me why I'm pushing myself, why I'm not using my crutches when I complain about pain.

my mom is 50 years old and watching this show with my sister. she said the episode about the diabetic girl helped her understand me and my disability better. she grew up disabled as well, but she was taught to shut up and power through.

yes, silly simple representation can annoy you if you've read thousands of pages about queer liberation or disability radical thought, but sometimes things are not for you.

Free resource for artists and designers!!

I made a website where artists and designers can get color palette inspo from fire hydrants I've 3D scanned all over the US

Some of my favorites:

There are about 100 hydrants so far and I'm continuing to add more all the time

Public infrastructure is sexy, baby!!!!!! Pass it on!!

🎨color study note

[diaryofaphilosopher]

"The shift from the Afro-Caribbean zombie to the U.S. zombie is clear: in Caribbean folklore, people are scared of becoming zombies, whereas in U.S. narratives people are scared of zombies. This shift is significant because it maps the movement from the zombie as victim (Caribbean) to the zombie as an aggressive and terrifying monster who consumes human flesh (U.S.). In Haitian folklore, for instance, zombies do not physically threaten people; rather, the threat comes from the voduon practice whereby the sorcerer (master) subjugates the individual by robbing the victim of free will, language and cognition. The zombie is enslaved."
