everybody always writes canon Rio as a suave charming sex fiend but honestly I think canonically she would have been a turbo virgin when she met Agatha…definitely no other woman since Rio rose from the primordial ooze has had the stones on her to try to seduce death. Nobody can tell me that Agatha wasn’t the first to suggest it

3.4 Turbo ATIVAR!
Hoje completo mais uma volta ao sol, mais um ano de vida e eu só agradeço por tudo que passei nesse ano, pelas coisas boas e pelas desafiadoras, pois me transformaram e me fizeram chegar até aqui, bem e viva!
Nesse último ciclo (os 33 anos - a idade de Cristo), foram inúmeros aprendizados, onde estive cara a cara com as minhas sombras, podendo reconhece-las e acolhe-las com bravura e coragem, pois elas também fazem parte do meu ser. Ao integrar minhas sombras e mergulhar em mim é que consegui compreender e enxergar as minhas luzes, que me mostraram o quanto sou forte.
Foram tantas mudanças em apenas 1 ano que é como se eu tivesse vivido 10: fiz as pazes com meu ciclo natural e com meu corpo; me reconectei com a natureza de forma profunda; conheci as medicinas da floresta; encerrei ciclos que me adoeceram e iniciei outros que me fortaleceram; fiz amizades e parcerias incríveis, dentre tantas outras coisas, pois com esse impulso do bem eu tive coragem pra lidar com meus processos e redescobri essa mulher livre de corpo e alma que sou.
Neste novo ciclo, sinto que minha vida está recomeçando com muito mais sentido, verdade e essência!
Parabéns pra mim, pela minha força e resiliência! Parabéns pra minha mamãe que também faz aniversário hoje, meu portal da vida! Te agradeço por tudo que a senhora representa pra mim, mãe @solangesantos59 💗
Obrigada Deus, obrigada mamãe Oxum e a todos os Orixás e Caboclos que me regem, pelas medicinas, bençãos e proteção!
VIVA A MINHA VIDA! VIVA A MINHA LIBERDADE!

God I love Solomon Muto so freaking much man, the ideas this event is giving me in Duel Links, of just, him going through gate to gate wanting to see all these Wonderful and unique cards and how he’s interacting with the DM gang treating them ALL as if they were his grandkids not just Yugi. They even call him grandpa which is something I just love about it in the show, because he’s not just yugis grandpa he’s a grandpa to ALL DUELISTS, Haha!
Makes me wonder over him interacting with other characters from other series because he’s just in AWE over all these cards and new summoning method, and being SUCH a grandpa for some of these kids.
Especially my fav little fucked up ones!!
He goes to learn Synchro summoning and meets Yusei and team 5ds, and them just going “Whoa! 😯 It’s the King of games Grandfather!!” , I wanna see him be all sweet with akiza, my girl needs it, and with how kind and wise he is? Girl probably gonna hold back a few tears Haha!! How he encouraged Tea/Anzu and Jou to follow their dreams in the event, is encouraging her to follow hers as well with that warm grandfather charm and support!!
Akiza: 🥹🥹🥹
Would absolutely ADORE Leo and Luna, Leo wants to show off SO badly and wants to be the one to teach him synchro summoning and Solomon is just giggling and smiling warmly at the boys antics!
Oh yeah he’s telling them embarrassing stories about Yugi, maybe pull up baby pictures, he seems like he would—
He meets Yuma and astral and Astral just adores card game grandpa, I’m just imagining him huddled up close to Solomon as he talks about old duel monster strats and old stories of his younger days and Yuma just wants to get outta there but he can’t cause Astral for some reason is so invested!!
Yuma shows off his Xyz summoning and is happily jumping all over the places by all of Solomon’s “Oohs” and “Ahhs” and his compliments to Yuma and his Dueling skills, oh wait nope, here comes bronk here to tease Yuma to Duel Grandpa about the 50 times Yuma lost to him.
But duel grandpa just gives his little hearty chuckle and gives his grandpa wisdom about how Yuma not staying down after every loss after loss just proves how strong of duelist he is or smth.
Yuma: 🥹🥹🥹
Haha! Or just him meeting shark, with him getting all grouchy and being, well, shark, tries to shoo Solomon away but he tries to get him to duel him after he learns how to Xyz summon, grandpa— as old and frail as he’s played off to be—is challenging shark, heck maybe even teasingly calling him chicken (or guppy, HA!!’) and sharks not having it, what? Kite got to throw hands with middle schoolers! So he’s allowed to throw hands with the elderly!
Whether he wins or loses Shark eventually comes to respect the old man! (Also Rio WILL be gossiping with Solomon and she WILL talk shit about shark to the Dueling grandpa)
I feel like if he met Cathy he’d be confused but supportive, “Well whatever makes you happy! Hoho! Children should be able to have fun in their own way!” Or smth like that. It needs to be said he is giving ALL of Yuma and friends old games he’d sell in his shop and shows them all how to play it ASTRAL INCLUDED ☝️ and it’s a fun little bonding time for the kiddos! They taught him Xyz Summoning he teaches them the joy of classic games!
He learns about pendulum summoning and action duels and wants to jump in on an action duel immediately!! But unfortunately Dueling grandpa isn’t a PARKOUR dueling grandpa 😔 He got them old bone hips…
But he still wishes to watch them!! Absolutely adores them!!
He meets Yuya and is just in AWE over the fact he invented pendulum summoning and just adores how upbeat and sweet the kid is!
Sylvio is just absorbing every compliments and praise from him! He wants him to watch every action duel, turbo duel, tag duel, or WHATEVER duel he performs, he wants all of his compliments and praise!!!(Listen man, old people have got to be putting SOMETHING in their compliments!! I get all giddy when someone’s grandparent compliments me bro, best feeling ever, I held the door open for this lovely grandmother this one time and she goes “Oh thank you sweetie such a lovely and kind girl you are!” I F*CKING ASCENDED MAN 😭)
Sora is indifferent to Solomon, unless he’s got that good old people candy, or just has any kind of candy in his game shop gives him +100 of his respect, especially if Solomon gives it to him for free ✊ free candy is ALWAYS sweeter.
The Vrains casts, OOOOH, my fav little fucked up bbys oh how I adore thee (and thine angsts)
Someone save the grandpa the modern meta and link summoning are gonna give him a heart attack bigger then the one Seto gave him oh god!!—
Watches one of blue angels shows and is buying merchandise and just gushing over her dueling skills and her monsters, would probably show Tea/Anzu too he definitely wants to ask Blue Angel if she’d want to sponsor his game shop XDD
He finds out about the Avatar function and IMMEDIATELY makes an Avatar of his younger days, buuuut it takes him a few hours (and yugis help) to figure out how HAHA!!
If he encounters playmaker he is so CONFUSED over Ai at first, but instantly adores him and joins him on his jokes and gags, treats Ai respectfully and as a person too.
Ai would call him Grandpap’s or some funny lil nickname for Mr. Muto, Adores how Solomon will take his side! And he’ll just go “Yeah you heard him! Respect your elders!” HAHA, he’s just behind Solomon’s shoulder with the SMUGEST face his little creature face can pull.
I’m imagining if He witnesses one of Playmaker and Ais classic banters I could see him going “Now, Now son, that’s no way to talk to your partner!”
“Huh?- i- uh-“
“YEAH PLAYMAKER, That’s no way to talk to your partner >:3” <- I can HEAR the smug tone in this LMAO
Soulburner is very respectful to Solomon, and Solomon will talk about his grandson and his friends to him telling him how he reminds him of some of yugis friends. I could definitely see Soulburner respectfully try to help him learn how to ride a duel board, Sol tech has got to have made easy beginner areas for speed dueling. right?
Tell him about the lost incident and he is going on an adoption speedrun 💕
No joke, I want to witness Solomon Muto VERBALLY BERATE Dr. Kogami’s bitch ass 💕💗😘 He is kicking his ass in the after life (JUMP HIS ASS GRANDPA GET HIS SHOES ☝️🗣️🗣️🗣️)
Speaking of which, I want him to give Ryoken a FULL ASS GRANDPARENT LECTURE. Ryoken is reluctantly forced to be lectured and have this impromptu therapy session with someone’s grandparent and it’s working, because it’s Solomon Muto people where did you think Yugi got his kindness and wisdom from? He finna shape this boy with kindness the same way Yugi shaped Yami/Atem with kindness! 😤
And once again he still wants to learn about all these new cards and what not and im just adoring the fact that if he ever were to meet spectre and learn about his Sunavalons and if spectre were to bring up his mother tree and his attachment to his Cards/Momster (hehe get it-)
Solomon would not judge, he’d completely understand, he would talk to spectre about his Blue eyes card how much it meant to him, (and of course about the heart of the cards! )He knows his connection and attachment to his beloved blue eyes card isn’t the same as his attachment to his sunavalon tree’s but he understands where spectre is coming from and how he feels and he also shares that same feeling he’d felt when his sunavalon tree would be destroyed just like how when Seto ripped up his bwd.
Spectre:🥹🥹🥹
HAHA, had to lol-
Anyways that’s just my little word ramble and thoughts~ does it make sense? No. Does it have proper grammar? No. Did I just wanna ramble about a grandpa in a card game Whos literally just an old guy princess peach? Yes. I like Solomon Muto 👍 HAHA, anyway back to murdering people with trickstars to duel the grandpa teehee~ 💕

🔥I would love to hear your thoughts on the girls in Yugioh
I like em a lot but I wish they got to actually Do Things (especially in Zexal, they had so many cool girls and they hardly got to do anything)
I LOVE YOU YUGIOH GIRLSSSS
🔥 kind of insane that "the yugioh girls are good characters and deserve just as much respect as the male characters do" is a bit of an unpopular take but some anime fans are stuck in 2005 livejournal mindsets and do still act like girls in yugioh existing are the most heinous crime against yaoi possible. COULDNT BE ME!!! yugioh girls get behind me i love you I WILL PROTECT YOU!!!
theyre such a weird case a lot of the time too, though, because with the way yugioh works we equate "doing big, heroic moments" with dueling, because...well. This is the Card Game Dueling Monsters show. and the girls really indeed Do Not Get to Duel A Lot (let alone Win a lot) so in that department especially YEAH THEY REALLY DONT GET TO DO MUCH. And you get instances like poor fucking Rio Kastle, who's fridged for half of Zexal in the hospital, and Akiza JUST NOT GETTING TO TURBO DUEL EXCEPT LIKE TWO TIMES, MAYBE. GOD. But something I've noticed alongside that is because dueling = The benchmark for doing big plot actions, when the girls Do get to do some pretty cool stuff that isnt a duel, it doesn't really get dwelled on or talked about too much in fan spaces, and it's a shame!
I will never stop proclaiming that the DM anime was so real and right for making Serenity Wheeler the one to dive into the ocean to save her brother after the pier duel, it's one of my favorite scenes in all of Duel Monsters. SO much bravery and determination in that action. HER EYES WERE STILL HEALING AND SHE DID ALL THAT STILL!!! WAHHH. and god Tori, Tori Kotori Zexal my daughter MY BABY, everyone wants to be like "ohh she doesnt do anything shes annoying" MISS ME WITH THAT!! It sucks that she doesnt duel, yeah, but she does SO FUCKING MUCH over the course of Zexal. She piloted a spaceship out of a black hole. She followed Shark and Kite to go save Hart and Yuma and she was BEATING THOSE LITTER BOTS TO DEATH to save her friends!! She's by Yuma's side for all the incredible bullshit he has to deal with and without her I think he would have just completely fallen apart. She's so tenacious and loyal and fearless when it counts the most and it's such a bummer there's, like, no Tori meta.
I guess that all isnt too much of a hot unpopular take is it??! hrm. I guess it boils down to "some people have equated "not dueling" with "annoying and bad character" re: the girls of yugioh, which imo is a kneejerk borderline-to-genuinelly-misogynist reaction manifesting over what's really a bad writing choice completely out of the characters' hands" and you should really give yourself a chance to take a look at Everything the girls actually did get to contribute to the plot, because you can really find some great character insight and actually pretty important to the plot gestures in there. tl;dr 🔥 if you think ygo girls are annoying im turning you into a golf ball and putting you into a sand pit.

For the character break down: Shark from Zexal
How I feel about this character: Shark is very endearing! He's such a tsundere, but with the power of Yūma, he reveals the soft and caring nature of his. QAQ He's the best school bully, lmao. I also enjoy his style and the fact that he rides a runner. (I'm sure people call it a motorcycle, but in my head, he's a big Turbo duel fan.) Yo, have you seen him smile? 🥺🥺🥺
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Yūma and Kite. I can get into fan stuff of him with either or, but in my head, all three are dating. You're just catching them at different times, lmaolololol.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Durbe.
My unpopular opinion about this character: Can't think of anything controversial because I don't see the ZEXAL tag often, but I guess it'll be that I love Shark's dub name. REGINALD KASTLES is one of the best dub names in YGO. I just love the unexpectedness and the jarring nature of the whole name. He sounds so regal, which makes sense because his family is wealth so I'm thinking old money. It's right up there in dub names with legends like CHAZZ PRINCETON and THEODORE HAMILTON. 😂
One thing I wish would happen/had happened to this character in canon: More quality time with Rio and/or the rest of the former Barians. I just want that slice of life, you know? Pretty please?
Send me another ask my way! I've seen all the series. 👀

I watched Mr. Peabody and Sherman for the first time a few months ago, and the "Biting" hoopla instantly reminded me of The Boxtrolls. That eventually led to me filling out this meme.
Cu Sidhe are fairy dogs from Gaelic folklore, said to be harbingers of death. I figure if trolls and vampires can be made sympathetic, so can other fantasy creatures. So here you go; the story of a little boy, raised by talking dogs, must fight to protect his found family from an overly ambitious errant knight.
Starring...
Sherman Peabody from Mr. Peabody and Sherman as Eggs.
Young Merida from Brave as Winnie (Because Penny and her parents can all suck a lemon)
Queen Elenor as Lady Portly-Rind (only other female character, and she only has two lines, bleahhhh)
King Fergus as Lord Portly-Rind.
King Magnifico from Wish as Snatcher (almost sympathetic, but not quite)
Queen Amaya as Madame Frou-Frou (because evil husband-wife team for the win)
Collete from Ratatouille as Mister Trout.
Alfredo Linguini as Mister Pickles.
Turbo from Wreak-It Ralph as Mister Gristle.
Lord MacGuffin, Lord Macintosh, and Lord Dingwall as the White Hats.
And now the title characters-
Mr. Peabody himself as Shoe (the one who raises Eggs)
Dug from Up as Wheels.
Nougat from Over the Hedge as Bucket.
Krypto the Super Dog as Fish (Mr. Peabody's husband)
Luiz from Rio as Sparky.
Perito from The Last Wish as Oil Can.
PolterPup from Luigi's Mansion as Knickers.
Pops from Secret Life of Pets as Fragile.
Duke as Sweets.
Max as Clocks.
Gidget as Specs (because I wanted to include at least one female)

Zexal Month Day 16-Strength Upright
@zexalmonth
Time to answer some questions!
In a contest of pure strength who would win?
Girag. No doubt. If it's just strength Girag would win. Alito could match him using more strategic moves, but if Girag was fighting at top strength he would win.
Who do I NOT want to face in hand-to-hand combat?
Are ya kidding me?! I'm five foot barely one, I have no clue how to fight! I wouldn't want to face anyone in hand to hand combat!
If we're talking a fencing match, it can depend. Girag and Nistro, maybe, maybe not. It depends just whether or not they can move in the fencing stance. Same with Alito, but he's not as heavy and seems more flexible so he might be quicker at fencing, although I MIGHT be able to out-strategize him. MIGHT. He's still stronger and faster which would give him an advantage (I'm working this out under the assumption that these guys have never fenced vs me who has fenced since 2020) but then again the inexperience might advantage me.
I refuse to fence Chris. I love him but he's so much bigger, canonically has abs, and probably can fence better and for longer than I have. Would it be fun? Yes. Would I lose? Yes.
As for everyone else, I could take them due to more experience. I'd want to fence Astral, Rio, and Trey the most :)
Who would I duel?
Mizar. That guy just makes me MAD with his stupid smug face and his random British accent. Also, I have this personal mental rivalry with him simply due to the world duel carnival 3ds game, as I automatically built a deck with dragons because I like dragons, and we had the same cards, and all i could imagine was us squabbling about who stole whose idea
If I stayed out of it, which two would I like to see duel or fight?
Akari and Charlie. I want to see Akari turbo-duel the LIFE outta him. She should have been the one to duel that ducker.
Also I wish we saw Astral and Kite having petty rival squabbles and fights. It would have been funny
And I think it would be very fun to see the big four (Yuma, Shark, Astral, and Kite) in a four person free for all duel over something ridiculous like the last riceball. Bonus if the girls are watching like 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
Also a more serious one would be Eliphas and Don. There would be so much tea spilt it would fill a goddamn lake.

The Joy of Life Challenge - #31
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aspen started the morning by making breakfast for the family, the classic beans on toast.
Tumblr media
Noelle's quirks came in, and she got the 'messy eater', 'light sleeper' and 'loves books' quirk; not too bad!! It makes so much sense that she got the loves books quirk because she kept asking her brother and her dad to read her books, lol!
I also forgot to mention before, she aged up with the 'inquisitive' trait! I can picture her being a very smart sim.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aspen gave her a nice warm bubble bath before she played with her brand new princess castle and took her baby doll to play in the snow!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Later that evening, it was Aspen's first shift at Greasy Foods as a fry cook.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Let's just say, he smashed it! He even got a promotion. (I'm using the Turbo Careers mod to get to work with him.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The next day, Noelle had a lovely time at home playing with her baby doll, and drawing some beautiful pictures!
It was Sunday, and it was also New Years Eve!
Aspen got a text from his friend Sage, telling him that there's a teens' night party going on at Club Tropics to celebrate NYE and as a way to party before school starts.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aspen met some new friends! And he even got Sage to introduce herself to them. In the pictures above, there's Clyde Wu (left) and Rio Jackson (right).
There's sage in the beautiful pink and blue floral dress. Clyde toasted to Aspen and gave him a drink.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then he introduced himself to Clyde & Rio's other best friend; Eleni!
Then, across the dance floor he saw a girl he found very attractive-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She's the stereotypical Cheer captain, Sophia. Then, it was time to celebrate!!
Tumblr media
He then toasted with Sophia, and had a (drunken) flirt with her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And she's now developed a crush on him...
So, it seems like Aspen will be fine at high school after all, he's already made so many new friends. But he does have 'high confidence' trait, so it makes sense.

Andrew McLauchlan - "Love Story (Edit)" Turbo Sampler (Vol.2) 2000 Techno
Plays: N/A on Spotify // 49 on YouTube
Andrew McLauchlan is more or less a techno one-hit wonder, but boy, oh boy, does that one hit of his fuckin' *bang,* man. Originally from Scotland, McLauchlan moved to London to start a small techno label called Figment in '98, who then released a double 12-inch EP compilation the following year called Chorusline, on which the original version of “Love Story” appears. But that track then got picked up by the larger, Manchester-based Bush Records in 2000, and they ended up spawning a “re-edit” version of "Love Story," which became extremely popular among techno crowds at the time.
And that particular re-edit really has to be one of the greatest techno bangers of the early 2000s, if not all time. McLauchlan basically samples a bunch of bits and pieces off of a dusty Brazilian samba record from the early 70s and re-arranges them all to yield his own wild, modern dancefloor masterpiece, pairing those different sampled parts with four-on-the-floor kickdrums and a hand-clap that forms a backbeat.
But it sounds like it takes some time for all of those samples to really start getting deployed, because pretty early on, McLauchlan actually laces this remarkable techno-samba sweat-fest frolic with a wandering piano line that appears to be one of his very own making. And that unpredictable piano piece has a way of effectively leading us from outside the party venue to the right-smack-dab-middle of its revelrous dancefloor.
Now, you might notice a discrepancy here between the fact that this is a very popular techno tune, but that its YouTube play count is extremely low. That's because this exact edit, as it appears on Turbo Records' Turbo Sampler (Vol.2), is just a shortened version of the full-length re-edit by a couple minutes, and has nowhere near the same amount of plays as some other YouTube uploads of the song. It's actually funny that "Love Story" is even included on a Turbo sampler in the first place, because the label never actually released the song themselves. But within that same year, it was also included on label owner Tiga's Mixed Emotions double-disc mix, and maybe that release helped to raise "Love Story"'s profile in North America, since it was definitely one of the mix's best tracks. And maybe because of that mix, people just naturally associate "Love Story" with Turbo too, which is why it's on their sampler? I'm just guessing here 🤷‍♂️.
But also, be wary of the misinfo that's floating around about this mesmerizing dance bop. Places like WhoSampled credit the song's samples to a track by Zé Catimba and Brasil Ritmo called "Martin Cererê" (sometimes written as "Martim Cererê"), but the website actually supplies the wrong version of the song. This version here, by G.R.E.S. Imperatriz Leopoldinense, a samba school in Rio de Janeiro that Zé Catimba himself co-founded, is the far more likely culprit 👇:
youtube
Either way, the two sampled vocal parts that form this tune's "chorus" make for the best parts. They represent subtle, infectious changes to the beat that ultimately lend to this track slapping as hard as it does. Whenever McLauchlan pumps those vocal samples in, the frenetically clanging keys that provide the lead melody throughout most of the track—different from the ones from his own piano piece—drop out, and so does the thumpiness of the kickdrum (though not always). It's a pair of small changes, but they're really vital to making this song as terrific as it is. Each "chorus" generates a small amount of anticipation for the listener as they wait for that kick drum thump and piano to return each time. And by the way, that underlying piano riff might be a looped-up sample of McLauchlan's own as well, since it doesn't sound like it comes from "Martin Cererê" 🤔.
So, If you’re looking to throw some kind of wild dance party with some Latin or international flair, then look no further than this song to be part its soundtrack. It’s a truly timeless work of art that could still stand as the jewel of any techno mix released today. Andrew McLauchlan really captured some lightning in a bottle at the turn of the millennium with this piece of uptempo, samba-sampled dance music. What a goddamn tune this one is!

A categoria Rally 5 Light , o regulamento é o mesmo da rally 5 em questão mecânica , carros 4x2 1.0 turbo ou 1.6 aspirado, o que muda mesmo a experiência dos pilotos e navegadores , um pouco parecido com o que acontece na categoria Sport da Posrche Cup ou a categoria challenge da Nascar Brasil.

Was thinkin about your 5Ds furries and I legally have to ask what fursonas you'd assign to the Zexal cast
OUGH ive been thinking about this....zexal's cast is so big so I havent been able to scry critters for All of them, but here's a few ive been pondering....
Yuma - Eurasian Red Squirrel! I just feel like it suits him…. energetic and quick plus that perfect warm color palette. If i ever draw furry!yuma i wanna make his coat closer to the pink of his hair. Look how cute this lil guy is
Tumblr media
Astral - some kind of bird I'm thinking. A dove could be, really really funny. And I also feel like you could translate his color palette/features to one supremely easily..
Shark - A SHARK WOULD BE TOO EASY!!! I like to play hardmode.... rn thinking about him and Rio either being some sort of squid or perhaps some species of seahorse...aquatic non-mammalian critters but a little bit more offbeat than most water dwelling furries.
Kite - ok this is a bonkers one but like. I was originally thinking some kind of bird for him too but ive also been playing with the idea of??? Hedgehog Kite??!?! Leucistic/blond hedgehogs can happen, and theyre also pretty solitary creatures (with..ah. bad eyesight :,)).. also very fun parallel to yuma's Woodland Critter ass. i just think it's so funny picturing this turbo badass and he's just. a hedgehog. (baby hedgy hart is also rly cute ;_; )
Tori - CORGI!!!!!!!!! The folklore connection of corgis and fairies tying into Fairy Cheer Girl, and theyre also just such a fearless, tenacious, affectionate breed...all very Tori like traits I think :3c They're also herders and I really love the image of Tori herding and corraling all of her and Yuma's other friends out of trouble hehehehe
I'm also still pondering the Barians but I really like the idea of them being mythical creatures in their alien form and the Real Life version of that animal in their human forms (so squid!nasch and marin would be krakens, and/or seahorse!nasch and marin would be kelpies, etc etc).....

(i also just think peryton!vector would be kickass)
