levada water course . . . | uwhe-arts

Levadas are the name of the artificial watercourses that were built in Portugal and Madeira (Portugal) to direct water from the wetter areas to the agricultural areas. In Madeira, water is channeled from the north and center of the island to the south. Most levadas only have a small incline. They skirt valleys and mountains, pass through tunnels and cross natural watercourses on aqueducts.

You see there's a crucial difference between Spartans and Freelancers. Between their fucking insanity.

Spartans were indoctrinated as children. They are finely curated artisan crazy.

Freelancers are the results of some people looking around for the most fucked up individuals they could find and cherry picking the most batshit headcases possible.

See, it's artisanal insanity versus fully organic insanity.

Both results in people willing to jump out of airplanes or whatever.

#was talking with my friend about that scene from halo infinite #where chief jumps from the ship #into the pelican #and I asked which freelancers would do it #and like carolina and tex obviously #but then york would follow carolina #and south wouldnt let them show her up #and north would follow her #and someone would shove wash out #and florida would fucking whoop as he jumped #and i mean #maine #that sentence ends there #So basically if one freelancer jumped off a bridge all of them would #because again #they're all batshit fucking insane #rvb #red vs blue #red vs blue meme

I wonder how many people know that Maria's animals are the Four Symbols from Chinese/East Asian mythology. Didn't pick it up until the turtle appeared but when I tell you I screamed

#the vermillion bird of the south!!! #the black turtle of the north!!! #the white tiger from the west!!! #hjklahrlkjahsdf all we're missing is the azure dragon from the east now #although now i'm curious #where did maria get this ability from? #clearly not from her very christian father #and her mother is russian #not trying to be one of those people screaming “cultural appropriation” or something i'm just curious #especially since castlevania likes to explain where things come from and why people can do magic #castlevania #castlevania: nocturne #castlevania nocturne #castlevania netflix #maria renard

things in 19th century novels that bring me an immense amount of joy

a passive aggressive pianoforte moment

any country dance scene

flower symbolism

the love interest telling the heroine he loves her mid panic attack

a women rejecting a marriage proposal from a man she hates

hands

when lore gets dropped via letter

and, most importantly, the First Name Drop™

If any of you have trouble understanding why British slang is the way it is… I don’t have a fucking clue either. How and why the fuck does “mad” “proper” and “dead” all mean “very”

#red and blue colours are based on the North and south points on a compass and the nasa logo colours ^^ compass bc I kept thinking about how #astronaut is supposed to mean ‘star sailor’ and it stuck with me lol #and apparently real space suits are heavy because the moon lacks atmosphere and with all the air used to keep the person alive #so I thought adding adjustable weights rock lee style would be cool. and to kind of balance the bottom half from the top #IM RLY PROUD OF THE HELMET THOUGH I’ve wanted it too look like a gacha capsule for ages and I think it came out right this time #you would have to slide the screen of the helmet up like those toy helmets. and then you can flip it back on its hinge #didn’t have enough room to make a comparison between the helmet mode and collar mode but oh well. I don’t draw it enough anyway so it’ll #come up eventually shrug.. and ofc the logo a la nasa space suit #my art #myart #my oc #oc development #character design #original character #my characters #oc #Augusta #reference sheet #oc ref sheet #astronaut

The BBC lady blowing my mind by pointing out the parallels between the endings of North and South and Jane Eyre (man brought low after losing his fortune, woman has gained wealth and comes to his rescue so they're now on equal footing).

She also pointed out that North and South is a continuation of issues Bronte explored in Shirley (to the point that Helstone is named after a character there), so I guess I may have to read that book one day.

#elizabeth gaskell #charlotte bronte #north and south #jane eyre #guess i may just have to give that book another chance #after my annoyance with people approaching gaskell as a lesser austen #instead of as her own writer #it's finally sunk in that maybe i need to do the same to these works #i still don't think they'll be to my taste #but maybe i could like and dislike what they are #instead of what they aren't #also i just need to say that the bbc lady restored my faith in literary criticism #reading the intros of some gaskell books lately just left me going 'shut up about gender!' #this lady talked about gender in ways that made sense #and put the stories in context for the time period and literary landscape #i didn't agree with everything but everything made sense coming from the text #instead of putting their own lens and twisting everything to fit it

anything on 13 and 14 for the bigeneration?

-since there’s already two of them, fourteen never gets shot, which means fifteen won’t be around for a while yet 😔. it also means that both the doctors play their own games against the toymaker! fourteen sticks with highest card, thirteen goes with mario kart (and wins, for the record. yes she will be holding the fact that she won her game and fourteen lost over his head forever. oh what’s that his game was pure chance and doesn’t have anything to do with his level of skill? tough)

-donna's spare room only has one bed, and they argue over who gets it for like an hour (thirteen's like i sleep on the floor a lot anyway it's fine you take the bed and fourteen's like you literally died like 5 hours ago YOU take the bed) until donna's like Why Doesn't Somebody Take The Fucking Sofa. that somebody is thirteen bc fourteen's really tall lmao. donna comes downstairs the next morning to find fourteen curled up on the floor next to the sofa anyway and is like hm i sure hope this won't be representative of their general relationship!

-for the first week, thirteen is very much not fun to be around for reasons of she literally just fucking died and was kind of hoping that it would mean she didn't have to deal with any of that unresolved trauma (spoiler alert it's still there but It's Worse Now). eventually even fourteen starts avoiding her, which makes it ten times worse (turns out she's uh kinda bleeding psychically. that's what happens when two aliens rip open your memories again and again and then your best enemy forces a regeneration on you). this goes on until she snaps at rose, at which point donna sits her down in the shed and is like we're going to talk or else i will physically kick you out. an hour (and a lot of tears) later she brings fourteen in too. they end up having semi regular check in sessions after that and it really does help

-around a month in, they just Vanish and the tardis is gone too, and donna's like well they could've left a fucking note. but i get it. and then rose is like mum come look!!! and takes her into the shed, which is now bigger on the inside and has two full rooms, one with rose's workshop (now with a bunch of vintage sewing and knitting machines in) and one with the tardis and a hammock (for thirteen) and a sofa bed (for fourteen). donna's like oh you definitely should be in seperate rooms you guys are unhealthily close and they're like we can't hear you over our amazing coping methods

-yeah they're like. really codependent. they also have vastly different ways of getting comfort (fourteen needs to be touching somebody at all times, and also loves comfortable silences; thirteen needs a five foot cube of personal space and also can't stop talking ever Or Else The Thoughts Get Her) which isn't a super great way to live tbh! luckily you kinda need surgical tools to seperate donna and fourteen, and rose and thirteen can talk at each other for hours, so it kinda balances out. the fact that they physically need to interact with other people really helps dskjldsajklds

-while fourteen isn't ten, he's just like a more mature version of him, so he slots very easily back into donna and wilf (and even sylvia)'s lives. thirteen, on the other hand, is a completely new person, and does often feel a little out of place. once everyone else realises she feels like this they're like what the fuck are you talking about. you're sad and feral. that's the doctor

-they do eventually get better with uh lots of therapy and also getting desk jobs at unit (fourteen ends up more with the organisational side while thirteen is just Generally Sciencey. she has like forty experiments going at once. kate only knows about around 2/3 of them) plus the shed expands eventually and thirteen gets her own workshop and tinkering really helps calm her down. meanwhile fourteen starts getting into baking, and that helps him too. they both just really needed a breather, yknow?

#asks #anon #bigeneration au(s) #doctor who #the doctor #thirteen #fourteen #they're both doing very much not good! #thirteen goes through So Fucking Much in her life and stopping to think about it makes it all hit her at once #and fourteen's like the saddest wettest cat around. mainly because Look At Who He Came From #votest most depressing doctor duo #also since they both live in the same place they need a way to differentiate them #donna comes up with SO many stupid nicknames #her favourite is probably bitey and bony #there's also stripes and suit. blondie and spiky. shortcake and double decker. north and south #also fourteen ends up migrating from his suits into just comfy clothes but i don't think thirteen ever changes tbh. maybe also more jumpers #god i need to make these shorter #sorry 😔

Christmas celebrations with the Itabros means:

A big meal on the 24th (mostly cooked by Romano)

Another big meal on the 25th (mostly cooked by Feliciano)

A smaller meal on the 26th (for Santo Stefano) with leftovers from the previous two days.

And of course lots and lots of alcohol and sweets ❤️
