New Nandermo Fic- "You Got It, Boss"
I had zero intention of doing this, but somehow it happened.
I don't know if we're being trolled or teased, but it hurt. So many OPs have brought up really great point that I agree with... especially those who have written about what happened to Marwa in the name of comedy versus what may not be happening to Nandermo in the name of... some sense of propriety?
Didn't Paul see the Vampiric Council's sexual harassment video? Weren't the two rules/suggestions: 1) Do what you want 2) The orgies should start on Thursdays
Anyway, something that @weakformemo said to me last night made me think that this might be the best way for me to sort of process this in the short-term.
So, here it is:
This is for @weakformemo and @indashadows <3

Erm... Legitimately, I have so many things I was supposed to be working on.
Here’s the new chapter of Filing Status tho... My attempt at a Marriage AU.
We’re really trying to live, laugh, love in these conditions.

“Abner! Abner! The Vishwakumah’s girl is going to fornicate with Howard’s love child!”
“Gladys, Howard was always a faithful husband and plus the girl has something I lack.”
“What’s that?”
“Initiative to change her life.”

New chapter, y'all~
Chapter 7: "in which the umbrellas reach a rare consensus"
Fic summary: "The Umbrella Academy returns to 2019 to find an empty, dusty mansion with portraits of unfamiliar kids on the walls and a series of cryptic notes from a father who has vanished. While they must piece together the changes they have made to the timeline and the paradox of their own existence, that is not the whole story. Between their search for answers and adjusting to their new lives, they find time to rest and become the family they always could have been. An unholy union between a fix-it fic and a fluffy AU made of beach episodes and road trips and family movie nights."

find myself fascinated by the etymological link between 'hot off the presses' and 'hot gossip' and 'hot take' and 'this tea is scorching hot'
just, that the semantic connection between physically hot things and new and exciting information has come up twice in only a century.
'Inflammatory journalism' too. Things heating up in the news fandom.

Meet Uroplatus garamaso, a new leaf-tailed gecko from Madagascar!
Uroplatus garamaso are absolute masters of camouflage. During the day, they rest with their heads down and fringes expanded, rendering them practically invisible. Here, I have revealed the outline of the gecko against the tree trunk. As you can imagine, that makes them pretty difficult to spot in the wild.
Fortunately, at night, they wake up and prowl the branches, and can often be found up to a few metres off the ground hunting for invertebrates.
This remarkable gecko has been known about for over 20 years, and has even been in the pet trade for well over a decade. But only now have we finally amassed enough information on it to be able to formally describe it and give it a name. The trouble was that it is extremely similar to Uroplatus henkeli, which is also found nearby. The key to distinguishing them turned out to be the colour of the eye, and the tip of the tongue, which is pink in U. garamaso (left), and blackish in U. henkeli (right).
These geckos open their mouths as a warning signal, so looking at this feature is quite easy. But we are not sure why the mouth colour so often differs between species. Some more behavioural studies are needed.
The new species was described on 15 August 2023 in the Open Access journal Salamanadra. You can read the paper here.

It's so fucking annoying that if you use multiple pronoun sets including it/its, everybody completely avoids those ones. They'll use any other pronoun on the planet, and you can't really complain if they use other ones you like, but that one just gets avoided??
If you've ever referred to me with it as a pronoun, I owe you my life. I hope you randomly find five dollars tomorrow.
