i don't even think one has to go as far as to unravel the whole idea of breed, registry and stud books, because i know for a fact that in other animals one has managed to have all of these things without going fckn batshit

#my ideal would be for something like the current outcross strategies to be the norm #there are dog breeds - working ones primarly - that function like this #some of the reindeer breeds come to mind #wherein you bring your dog to a specialist show and the breed specialist has a go at it and if he says hmm yep looks about right #congrats your dog is now in the stud book #makes it a lot easier for those breeding for a purpose to have access to a registry - accessibility and everything that comes with that #without having to make concessions for conformity #because i do believe very. very strongly in pedigrees in the same way i believe in health testing #not for the sake of blood purity so much as for known history #these are tools that can and should be used to the benefit of our dogs

#qsmp fitmc #Fitmc my beloved #Fitmc from 2b2t getting his ass knocked down a mountain by his werecat boss #Madagio really looked at the guy and read him like a book #he knew Fit would get attached because the man has a soft heart #count on a cat to know! #But the whole lore around the federation is fascinating! #the cat hybrid tests were before Vacuus then... #there are so many others too! #fairly certain there was mention of dog or wolf hybrids... and rabbits... before the bird hybrids from quesadilla island #I am sooo glad Fit decided that his lore would be to dive into the history of the Federation! #very excited!

The bsd fandom is so weird and ridiculous yet so sad and angsty at the same time and i love it, at first we just being mad at bones for ruining the skkk chapter 88 scene to chapter 109 is out and chaos ensure

I was done doing my reaction for chapter 109 and I see some post like "NONONONONONO DAZAI IS NOT DEAD HE STILL ALIVE" and being speechless about what happening , theory and analysis,people thinking about another scenario where there are just being lovely dovey happily ever after, bsd fandom going from "BONES I HATE YOU WHAT HAVE YOU DONE" to " WTFFFF IS GOING ON", people being slapped in the face thrice tenfold hundred fold??? for being in the good omens fandom, jujutsu kaisen fandom then bsd fandom (I hope there are a meme about you should never ask what happen to August 3rd,2023 for people in those fandom or people who all in the three fandom), people just doing fanart, people seeing last panel (I mean the three sokouku generation panel) or any panel they like and think "wow homo", it being trending because of chap 109, and dazai stan threatening the author because of what happen ( which is not very nice and i know this because of a post i see while scrolling through bsd tag, dazai tag count too i guess), etc

We really need someone to make a history book about the bsd fandom cause we do so many questioning stuff like cursed name on tiktok (i mostly see them on tiktok and i didn't see them anywhere else though), bsd characters x random object, mpreg, the bsd x tr fandom thing ( I was trying to hold my laughter while thinking about that), then we have bones ruining chapter 88 to the chaos of chapter 109 and many more i think but I don't remember that much

This fandom is like a mood swing and I love it so much

#bungou stray dogs #bsd #bsd chapter 109 #bsd 109 #bsd fandom #this fandom is the definition of mood swing #i was crackling when i was going through bungou stray dogs tag #it was so fun #we were trending because and exploding because of chapter 109 #now we though chap 101 and chap 88 was bad #maybe we should just switch the skk iconic scene in cha 101 to 109 #dazai stan gonna be livid #i feel sorry for the people who are in good omens jjk and bsd fandom #they were going through so much right now #we need someone to make a book or a fic about bsd fandom history #we were so delulu #i hope there were more bsd theory and analysis #especially about atsushi #i love him #there something about atsushi ok is just there are so many holes in atsushi backstory #and so many question about why he related to the book and other stuff like that #i want more bsd theory and analysis #i really like bsd theory and analysis ok #ignore how there were some missing letter of the word i mean in the tag and was trying to hold my giggle #just a post

after a bath, a play with her trainer’s child, and a kiss on the nose, laika was sent up to orbit in sputnik 2.

"Laika was quiet and charming ... I wanted to do something nice for her: She had so little time left to live." -Vladimir Yazdovsky, medical scientist

her satellite transmitted for 7 days on the frequencies 20.005 MHz and 40.010 MHz. enclosed is the recording of Laika’s heartbeat before passing away from overheating. 

did she die for her country, for the progress of humanity and space exploration? some say she did. it made no difference to little Laika, floating in the great expanse of space above, peering down through the satellite’s single window, built just for her; the shaggiest, lonesomest, goodest girl in the world.

“Work with animals is a source of suffering to all of us. We treat them like babies who cannot speak. The more time passes, the more I'm sorry about it. We shouldn't have done it ... We did not learn enough from this mission to justify the death of the dog.”  -Oleg Gazenko, leading scientist, and Laika’s trainer

#laika #soviet space dogs #history #tw animal death #in my masters science writing paper we had to pick a scientist to study throughout the semester #and instead of a scientist i did laika. #i wrote a few books about her. one of them was an e-book and the last page is just black except for this audio recording #and i never cried so much as uni during that semester. memories of listening to this in the med library just sobbing my eyes out #she was the best girl but i wish she wasnt. she never had to be #personal #dog #ussr history #it's the anniversary so i thought i would post this #even though it physically hurts me to listen to

I'm reading a collection of tales recounting the early days of the Yokohama Foreign Settlement (Suribachi City, in bsd-verse), and the sheer amount of shenanigans deserves a list but I don't even know where to begin.

The noodle-makers' dispute over flour that led to the Governor of Kanagawa Prefecture committing seppuku? The Japanese-government sponsored brothel with a moat? The two-sword wielding assassins in the swamp who kept killing foreigners? That the foreigners still went bird hunting in the swamp filled with two-sword wielding assassins? The Japanese soldiers quartered nearby bonding with the troops England sent to do something about the two-sword wielding assassins? The English merchant who had his American assistant illegally arrested resulting in a lawsuit against the English merchant in the English court that had to be litigated by the American Consul since he was the only American lawyer in Yokohama, during the course of which the salty editor of an English newspaper decided to settle a personal vendetta by publishing remarks about the American assistant so scathing that the American assistant then hid in wait only to pop out and horsewhip the editor in front of God and everyone, resulting in another trial, but this time in the American court, which meant the American Consul became the judge, a position which he used to imply the English lawyer, the now-judge's former opposing counsel, was worth a sum of 6 1/4 cents, with such insinuation sparking community-wide protests? Blood Town?

#bsd #bungo stray dogs #yokohama #bsd meta #this book was written by an Australian occupation soldier in 1958 who collected tales and histories of the japanese foreign settlements #so take EVERYTHING with a grain of salt #this isnt even all of it #i just dont know how to succinctly explain the chit system or the racket with chinese smugglers #or the caste system developed when they finally filled the swamp #presumably after dealing with the assassin infestation??? unclear. #there may have been assassins in the suburbs #this was JUST in yokohama #the europeans and americans were. acting unwise.

#there's a lot that I would choose multiple for #like there's no real preference for hard or soft cover books but if it's a large non-fic or picture book then I like it hard #if novel I prefer soft because it's harder to turn the pages at times #same goes for the bookshop library thing #though I've not checked out a book from the library in ages #only ever used the receipt as a bookmark... gives the book some history when I look at it again in the future #also had a thing where I hated damaging my books #like no breaking the spine or no slightly bending a page #got bit sad when I see my books bend open (or something) at some random page #but recently I buy second hand books to read and they're filled with bends and dog ears and little random notes #if I own the book I now bend open the pages and mark where I've been with a corner fold #I like looking at the past readers reading history and when I read my book again it'll show where I read up to and all that cool stuff #gives the books some personality and history #however I only do that with soft books #never doing that for a hard cover #am evil lol #maybe there is a preference to the hard and soft covers #lmaaaooo

ok now im wondering about fyodor's accent. and his... proficiency in japanese.

you're telling me this man has been alive forever and never bothered to learn japanese? i mean he probably knows so many dead languages and he is just terrible at learning japanese?

also his accent. he had to grow up in some russian or slavic state or something? so maybe that helps narrow down fyodor's age?

#idk russian history or slavic history guys #thank god my world history teacher started our three book religions unit last week this is great im having so much fun #like we're literally discussing the time period that fedya must have been in in that chapter soooo #not extensively but still #bsd #fyodor dostoevsky #bungou stray dogs

We interrupt this dashboard to tell you about the cutest image I've come across in my Civil War reading.

Abraham Lincoln playing with kittens.

Apparently there were three of them in the City Point telegraph office. Lincoln would pet them and play with them and wipe their little eyes with his handkerchief every time he stopped by during his trip there at the end of the war.

This was important enough to devote most of a chapter to.

I would like to thank this author for including the important parts of history.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #it did strike me as a bit too cloying of a story #in a book that's all about valorizing lincoln as peacemaker #it's a rather over-the-top 'pet the dog' moment #doesn't stop it from being an absolutely delightful image though

From the beginnings of the cinema in 1895, dogs had casual walk-on roles; but the first man to recognise their true star potential was the British pioneer Cecil Hepworth. His film Rescued by Rover (1905), a seven-minute drama of a collie who rescues his master’s baby from kidnappers, was a notable forerunner of modern film techniques. It was also a considerable commercial success for Mr. Hepworth. Featuring his wife, his baby daughter and his dog, the total production cost of the film was £7 13s 0d. Hundreds of copies were sold at £10 12s 6d each; the demand was so great that Hepworth had to remake the film twice, after the negatives simply fell to pieces with use. Rover’s success led to several sequels — Rover Drives a Car, Baby’s Playmate, A Plucky Little Girl and Dumb Comrades. The dog died in February 1910. Hepworth wrote of him:

“Even his name was only an assumed one for theatrical purposes. His real name was Blair in commemoration of his Scottish origin. He was a true friend and a great companion, but my most persistent memory of him is the way every morning in life he jumped up on a washing basket by my dressing-table and waited and longed for a dab on the nose from my shaving brush. Then, with every expression of ineffable happiness, he licked off every trace of soap and waited for more.”

— David Robinson, "Dogs as entertainers." Dogs Dogs Dogs Dogs (1968)
