What is your Hogwarts house?
Hi! Im gonna assume this is in good faith once, and answer this by saying that im a trans man and have fully disconnected from harry potter because theyre bad books and jk rowling sucks if youd like to read something better id love to recommend some stuff! The Legend of Eli Monpress by Rachel Aaron is a series I like enough to put a quote from it on my arm, though I still hesitate to call it my favorite. It's about the greatest thief in the world as he tries to get his bounty as high as possible, accompanied by a swordsman wielding a mountain and a woman hosting the seed of a demon. The Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nyx was recommended to me by the lovely Jay Dragon and a few others at Metatopia this year, and I ended up devouring four of the seven books on the plane ride home. A child unwillingly goes through The Horrors, fighting seven angels who have been overtaken (in a sense) by the seven deadly sins. There's so much cool and interesting symbology throughout the series that's really fun to pick out when you notice it. Delicious in Dungeon is a manga by Ryoko Kui and definitely my favorite manga of all time. It's mainly about the importance of good food, as a group of adventurers end up having to traverse a dungeon with no supplies, surviving by eating the monsters within.
The Seep by Chana Porter is fun, if you're willing to get weird with it. Trina Goldberg-Oneka, a trans woman, finds herself devastated and unmoored after her wife leaves her to become a baby again. And by "fun" I mean it's a book that left me feeling like I was more of a person than I was before.
There's also plenty of really good webcomics out there, like Sakana, Bicycle Boy, Pia and The Tiny Little Things, A Better Place, We Go Together, Barbarous, Cold Sweat, ect, that you can simply find and read for free online! And if you simply must have wizards may I suggest making your own, the blog There's a TTRPG for that has a great post listing a bunch of good ttrpgs with that theme: https://theresattrpgforthat.tumblr.com/post/718030523649376256/theme-magic-and-mystics And speaking of games I'll cap this all off, for no particular reason, by recommending the game Let's Rob RJ McElhenny and Steal Her Golden Quill by Glaive Guisarme Games. It's fun and campy and a really good time.

My favorite part of the Real Time video was comparing the stick’s various strategies to getting out of the parkour trap, so I’ve compiled a bunch of my more notable observations below.
Red definitely utilized his biggest strength, his strength
When initially escaping his piglin he immediately went to overpower his by hand, and only once picked up a weapon
Tumblr media
Blue on the other hand choose the least confrontational method to escape, and barely tussled with his piglin at all
Despite how many times they tried, neither Blue nor Yellow were ever able to make the long jump to the stone slab
Tumblr media
Both Blue and Green liked to flip when crossing the slime block jump
Yellow always ran across the ice, unlike the others who slid, which was much more ineffective (though to be fair, the one time he did slide was the one time he fell lol)
Red always crossed the monkey bars with only one arm while the others would alternate arms or, in Yellow’s case, use both
Tumblr media
Almost all of them fought with their piglin at some point, but Red was the only one to actively steal its weapon
Second seemed to be the only one to have a notable reaction to the traps rotating
Second just started taunting their piglin at one point???? Which I guess helped them get a lead but it was still really fuckin funny
Tumblr media
Idk, it’s really neat to see their personalities come through even in small details

Pokémon and Social Bonding!
So, as I mentioned a while ago, I’ve spent some time in Paldea working with local fairy types (namely Tinkatink’s line, Fidough’s line, and a few others), and one thing I’ve wanted to talk about is the unique ways that Pokémon build and express social bonds with one another. This is really important for trainers and people who work closely with Pokémon because it’s key to understanding your partner’s behaviors and needs.
Pokémon show their emotions in a lot of different ways. I’m mostly talking about Fairy types in this post because that’s one of my main research areas, but this does apply to all Pokémon.
I want to lead in with Tinkaton and it’s family, because they do a very unique form of social bonding that seems tied to their collection of scrap metals for hammer building. Since they rely on their hammers for protection, utility, and social status, the process of making these hammers is a really big part of their community bonding. Sharing scrap metals, and helping younger pack members find ore, and working together to modify hammers is how these Pokémon share their affection. Similar behaviors are seen in Pokémon like Flabébé and Klefki, who also collect items (flowers and keys respectively) as part of their social bonds. These Pokémon may try to share their items with you, or may ask for your help in collecting what they need. A great way to tell these Pokémon you care about them is to reach out on their terms and give them supplies or help for their collections! Take your Floette to a plant nursery and help it peruse the different flowers, or take your Tinkaton to a hardware store and let it learn about solid construction!
Gallade and Gardevoir, Who I’ve researched in the past, tend to express affection and kinship bonds with “guarding” behavior. This can involve patrolling territory, acting as a sentry near ‘safe areas’ (usually for trainers, this means bedrooms, dorm rooms, offices, or other places where they spend a lot of time, etc…) and getting aggressive when outside threats get too close. This type of guarding behavior is also seen in Pokémon like Granbull and Galarian Rapidash. Don’t be offended, and don’t tell them to stop doing this. They’re trying to tell you that they want you to be safe! You can show them that you trust outsiders, be gentle with them, and teach them when it’s good to be on guard and when it’s ok to meet new friends. Also, if these types of Pokémon are really struggling to acclimate, consider introducing them to a friend of the same species. This can encourage them to share the “responsibility” of guarding, and let them relax a bit. Make sure to praise these Pokémon for working hard to protect you; they’re trying to tell you they care!
Some Pokémon use more “close to home” ways to express their affection. Play behaviors and grooming behaviors are two very common ways that Pokémon like Dachsbun, Dedenne, Marill, and others engage in to develop social bonds. These Pokémon take well to games and toys (Marill, Dedenne, and other rodent Pokémon especially take well to chew toys and tug toys!!), they will groom one another and often appreciate brushing and bathing, and want to include you as a member of the social group via these activities.
And the last type of kinship behavior I’ll discuss here is what I like to refer to as “singing and dancing”- though that’s not fully accurate, I think it’s apt! Some Pokémon communicate via specific movement and vocalization patterns that are very important to their kinship groups. Clefairy, for example, have highly specialized ‘dances’ that are specific to each pack’s members. Altaria (note: not exactly a fairy type but has a lot of genetic latency, see Mega Evolution specialists for more detail) uses it’s well-developed vocal chords to produce songs and humming sounds, and Cutiefly communicate with choreographed movements similar to other beedrill-like Pokémon such as combee and ninjask. These Pokémon can be tough to understand because we often can’t make the same movements or sounds. If you want to show this Pokémon that you care, try making your own! Pokémon are very smart, and they will quickly figure out what you’re trying to do. Sing the same lullaby to them every night, or hum the same tune when you’re playing together! Play games that involve coordinated movement like hopscotch to establish a relationship between a Good, Fun thing and a pattern of movement or sound! This can really help you engage with your partner!

Emergency Crow Soundmaker
Crows have a rich and complex language that humans just can’t understand. You can use this noisemaker to possibly ingratiate yourself with your corvid cohorts.

Chosen and RB?
I don’t know if there’s anything I’d really want to change about the characters, but I do wish King acted a bit more consistent throughout season three because since of his actions towards purple don’t quite feel right in the context of him being a father.

We’ve hit the Astarion downwards spiral.
How do I know?
Well, like when I actively started looking for FFXIV merch… I just bought a perfume because one of my mutuals on the bird app said it was a match for what Astarion uses as a scent.
Oops.

Update on the Porygon Situation
So, I’ve only been blogging about the porygon I found for about two weeks, but I’ve had the little fella in my custody for a month now. I made a good-faith effort to find the original owners, I called shelters, Pokémon Centers, and sent messages to friends all around North Johto. Legally at this point, the Porygon does belong to me and I’ve absolutely settled on keeping them around. With that out of the way, I will be deciding on a nickname, getting them registered at the Pokémon Center, and updating my bio to reflect this!
Thanks to Many Hours of MewTube Tutorials, I’ve got a basic grasp on Pory coding scripts, and one of my old coworkers from when I was with Professor Elm actually has a Porygon-2 so he knew quite a bit about coding. I poked around in the Porygon’s data and it looks like the previous owner tried to Jailbreak but botched it which explains the erratic behavior that they were displaying. Sometimes they would follow their programming and sometimes they would stray or make errors or even just crash altogether. (I suspect that this is why the old owners left them behind.)
I fixed them up the best I could with my limited knowledge and this week I’m going to make my way down to New Bark to get some help in person!
