Don't get me wrong... I LOVED the valentines day special and it had me laughing, blushing and fan girling multiple times... I just have some minor issues with the plot.

In the episode they say that Shlorpians don't have love and that they only have team affinity (which is funny and cute). This is the only time when we hear this in the show. But I feel like they did openly love each other and knew/felt that from one another for at least a few years... right? In the train episode Terry literally says "You aren't what you do, you're who you love, and that's me!" which Korvo does not protest, in fact he sobs out of love and appreciation for Terry (it's literally so fucking cute I could die!).

I did love the episode though, and I know that the writers for Solar Opposites are constantly challenging the status quo when it comes to story telling. I just really appreciate the love Terry and Korvo have for each other from the beginning of the show to the end. I can also appreciate that they had a cute story to tell and I am very glad they did!

Just thinking out loud here! Would love to know what others think about this!

I discovered a very minor difference in a scene that I've been loving for days gjdkg

in italian kururu says "I kneeew it! That's the nerve." which to me makes it so funny because he sounds way more already sure of it (he didn't have to "guess", he knew, though of course he knows in both versions lol) and also sounds a bit more like he's having fun at keroro's expense and therefore it makes him look,, like,, more mischievous 😭 TO ME... (AND I LOVE BOTH VERSIONS)

the way he delivers this part, he sounds a bit more outwardly teasing n less methodical

#ita dub #im always worried these posts come across as me shitting on jpn and IM NOT DOING THAT!!!!! DISCLAIMER!!! I DEEPLY LOVE BOTH!!!! #im just explaining the differences and what i like... believe me theres plenty of stuff in ita dub i dislike but tbh i. i love both #thats why i love comparing them otherwise I'd just stick to one #example: i tried the ita adaptation of solar opposites but it was so faithful to the original while sacrificing - #the unadaptable stuff that i found it boring and derivative #i much prefer when there's differences to discuss and comment eheh #btw i love kururu so much in gen. i think i love keroro kururu and dororo an immense amount #and i dont care for tamama at all lol he's my lowest of the 5. jpn OR ita. i dont care him #and i mean im sure i cant fully grasp the minutiae of jpn delivery anyway since i dont speak the language so. therell be bias

Summary: In the aftermath of war, peace reigns over the realms of Prythian, but the delicate balance hangs in the hands of two unlikely mediators—You and Lucien. As the newly appointed Emissaries of Peace, your duty is clear: maintain alliances, foster understanding between courts, and navigate the intricate webs of fae politics.

But when fate deals an unexpected twist, revealing that you possess not one, but two mates, the tranquillity you've worked so hard to uphold is suddenly threatened. Caught between two males who refuse to share, you find yourself thrust into a precarious position, torn between duty and desire.

What will you do and who will you choose?

Intro | Masterlist

The Dawn's Meeting Chamber, served as the esteemed location for all court attended meetings. Through previous trials and tribulations, and now amidst the settled peace, its significance remained steadfast. Thesan, your own High Lord, presided with grace and authority, embodying the essence of a perfect host.

And despite this being a time of peace, alliances were still rocky. Dawn served as the perfect neutral territory. 

Cushioned oak chairs were meticulously arranged in a circle around the reflection room,  offering a comfortable seat for attendees. Positioned opposite each other on either side of the reflective pool, you and Lucien stood poised amidst the chairs. He occupied the twelfth hour, while you claimed the 6th, a silent yet powerful representation of the balance and harmony you held within your new positions. 

Up until this moment, the weight of such responsibility had never rested upon your shoulders. For years, you had drifted through various roles within the Dawn Court, from the serene halls of the Library, the bustling markets of the city and the melodies of the theatre. Even during the war, Thesan had recognised your unique talents and utilised you on the border, a role that had never quite settled comfortably within you.

As a soldier in the midst of conflict, you had often felt like a square peg in a round hole, grappling with a sense of unease that gnawed at your core. It was as if you were searching for something, yet never quite finding where you belonged. Perhaps it was because you were different, your nature straddling the line between worlds in a way that defied easy categorisation.

As much as you passed for High Fae, it was clear to those who truly listened, that wasn’t the case. 

So when Lucien came to you with his proposition, a plea wrapped in a promise of purpose and significance, you couldn't bring yourself to refuse him. For the first time in your life, an opportunity had arisen that held the potential to make a tangible difference, to offer a sense of fulfilment, a sense of belonging.

A subtle exchange of nods and smiles passed between you and your friend. With a confident stance and a lifted chin, you prepared to address the esteemed gathering.

As the chamber filled with representatives from the solar courts, the seasonal courts, and the human alliance, a palpable sense of anticipation hung in the air. You and Lucien exchanged respectful greetings with the High Lord and Ladies in attendance, bowing your heads to their esteemed positions.

Once everyone was settled, Lucien stepped forward to take his place at the head of the meeting, assuming the role of leader with poise and authority. With a nod of approval from Thesan, the meeting commenced, setting the stage for discussions that would hopefully shape the future of the fae lands and beyond.

Lucien’s voice rang out, commanding the attention of all present. You felt the swell of pride fill your chest. That was your best friend. Lucien had been selected by all courts for this role, and you couldn’t envision anyone better. 

A kind male, with a huge heart and smart mind. He was perfect for this.

"We are here today in the first allied meeting of peace since the cessation of hostilities," he began, his tone measured yet commanding. "It is a testament to our collective efforts and determination that we gather here today in pursuit of peace and prosperity for all."

Pausing briefly to allow his words to resonate, Lucien continued, his gaze sweeping across the assembled dignitaries. "This is a pivotal moment for our land, a time to address any lingering concerns, to foster open dialogue, and to reaffirm our commitments to cooperation and understanding."

He gestured with open arms towards the reflective pool at the centre of the chamber, "I invite each of you to speak freely, to raise any issues or grievances regarding borders, trade agreements, or any other matters that may impact the stability of our realms."

Lucien had set the tone for the meeting, and you gave him a proud smile in return when his eyes flickered over you. You, along with Lucien and the courts were shaping the course of the future. A better future for everyone.

You had never been a part of these meetings before, but from what Lucien had shared, they usually didn’t go well. Before the most recent peace treaty, Lucien had briefed you on the usual hostility that hung in these meetings. Hostility so rife, that Lucien’s own brother, Eris, had almost met his end at the hands of the Shadowsinger. 

A male who you had spotted as soon as he had entered the chamber. How could anyone miss him? His features were chiselled and angular, with sharp cheekbones and a strong jawline that clenched as he listened to the conversations of the room. He demanded a dark ethereal beauty that was all encompassing. You were smart enough not to let your eyes linger too long when he first arrived, but now while everyone was distracted by debate you took a moment to take him in.

Azriel stood tall and imposing behind his High Lord and Lady. You and Lucien had restricted how many attendees were allowed in these new meetings. High Lords and Ladies of the court were allowed to bring up to two attendees, whether that be scholars, soldiers, courtiers. Whoever they deemed fit. These were meetings of peace, there was no need to flex muscle and power.

It seemed the Night Court had selected their Spymaster for attendance with them today; his presence spoke volumes of the Night Court's cautious approach to diplomacy. Especially after what Lucien had shared about the Shadowsingers unrestrained actions of the last meeting.

His dark hair fell in sleek short waves, framing his face. The black strands were a stark contrast to those hazel eyes. Beside him, his shadows lingered, a constant and enigmatic presence at his side. Though you had grown accustomed to their role as messengers in your correspondence, it was a whole other experience seeing them now in the flesh, accompanying their master.

You were aware of his delicate relationship with Lucein, the crossfires they had found themselves in regarding Lucien’s mate. And although you’re not entirely sure what went down, the repercussions left neither males fostering any type of relationship with Elain. 

Azriel’s expression was inscrutable, much like his earlier cryptic letters you had exchanged with him over the past two months. Hard to decipher. 

Perhaps it was your natural charm, or your way with words though, that managed to entice the Shadowsinger to show a different side. It was exactly 2 weeks of correspondence before the tone started to change.

Before officially taking on the role of Emissary, Lucien had to request approval for you to join him. In the meantime, you took on the difficult task of helping Spring Court. Those earlier weeks were dire, Tamlin would hide in his vine covered house and you were left to pick up the pieces best you could. Surprisingly it was Azriel’s letters that you received the most, him wanting daily updates on Tamlin and the progress of the court. No doubt, his own High Lord breathing down his neck for all information regarding his mate's ex lover.

Your notes were always polite and concise, but when writing to Lucien you often signed them off in jest. And after a particularly depressing update on the Spring Court, you signed at the end.

Send prayers, I worry I won’t even make it till Solstice. 

You signed with a scribble of a sad face, knowing Lucien would read your sarcasm well. However, thanks to the Shadowsigner’s meddlesome shadows, Lucien’s and Azriels letters somehow got swapped. So when you were expecting some witty remark from Lucien, it was in fact Azriel that took you by surprise.

I worry you won’t too…and what a shame that would be.

It was a taunting reply, one you hadn’t expected but made you smirk all the same.

A shame indeed… but do you doubt my capabilities, Shadowsinger? I’ll have you know, I am to be the new Emissary of Peace.

I know exactly who you are, y/n.

That had just been the beginning of your playful mockery, and there was a small part of you that felt guilty for looking forward to his messages so much. Especially considering who he was to Lucien. But you couldn’t help but reply. Spring Court had been so dreary, it was sometimes the only thing to lighten up your day.

You were intrigued to hear Azriel’s voice, hear what the ripples of his vocal cords would reveal. What did your pen pal sound like? What else would you discover about the Shadowsinger, now his court resided under you? 

༄ 

Your eyes carefully swept over the other attendees, absorbing the nuances of their discussions and concerns. Kallias's voice carried across the chamber as he delved into the intricacies and concerns of trade agreements between Summer. His worries about the quality of products traversing such diverse climates were evident, but you knew how desperately Summer needed the trade.

Tarquin was the youngest in the room beside Feyre– the Night Court's High Lady. 

The first High Lady ever you reminded yourself. 

With Summer now falling under your jurisdiction, you couldn't help but feel a sense of empathy for the younger ruler, still finding his footing amidst the complexities of court politics. He had never even ruled during a time of peace when the only concerns were whether his goods would freeze as soon as they crossed the Winter border.

This is where you came in. This was your job. Maintaining vital exchanges for the prosperity of all involved.

As Kallias concluded his remarks, you chose that moment to interject, your voice cutting through the air with quiet authority. "You've made such a valid point, Kallias," you acknowledged, drawing the attention of the room toward you for the first time.

Your voice was soft and gentle, yet filled the room with a warmth that perhaps these meetings had always lacked. 

“I know it’s been a long time since trade as ran between the courts, and we want to make this transition as smooth and successful for everyone”

Your gaze shifted to Helion, the High Lord of Day, a thoughtful expression on his face as he observed you. "I wonder if this is something Day could help with," you continued, laying out your proposal with careful deliberation.

“Solan, your spell weaver has quite the talent for weathered charms. His expertise is extraordinary, I’ve seen his work” You sung the Day’s residents praises brightly.

You had met Solan many years ago when he collaborated with Nuan on one of her ingenious inventions. 

“I believe he has the capabilities to create such a charm that could assist with smooth tradings and deliveries, across all the seasonal courts” 

To win the favour of this notion, it would have to benefit not only Summer.

Helion met your gaze, his eyes betraying a hint of intrigue as he considered your suggestion. "You are correct," he conceded, nodding in agreement. "Solan could create such a spell. But of course at a cost."

“Of course,” you smiled. You wouldn’t expect anything less.

Tarquin's smile was genuine but soft as he responded, "That is something Summer would be happy to discuss."

“As would Spring” Tamlin spoke. A quietness settled after, his transgressions still creating an uncomfortable tension.

Your eyes flickered to the familiar auburn hair of Eris, someone you had not seen in years. He merely nodded reluctantly, almost as if he detested how smooth that had been.

“I will speak with Solan, and be in touch shortly, gentleman” Helion said with grace, sending you a smile and a soft wink.

Turning back to Kallias, you addressed his concerns directly, offering the solution. "With Solan's expertise, we can ensure that shipments between courts are unaffected by weather conditions," you assured him. 

"Send me a quote Helion '' Kallias nodded beside his wife, mate, Vivnae– the second High Lady in history. “As long as the goods maintain their quality, I’m happy to move forward with confidence."

A sense of relief washed over you at the resolution. You were smooth, decisive and quick.

༄ 

As your perceptive gaze traversed the room, meticulously dissecting the nuances of each attendee's demeanour, listening to their breaths, smacking of lips and the clicking on tongues. It all revealed so much. You could hear it within the unspoken. 

Your eyes abruptly came to a halt upon falling into a familiar amber gaze—the penetrating stare of Eris Vanserra.

His eyes locked on yours like a hawk. A tight smirk graced Eris's lips as his gaze roved over your form with a predatory intensity, sending a subtle shiver down your spine that you quickly suppressed.

You couldn't help but notice the subtle changes in his appearance—the shorter hair that framed his features in a way that suited him, a departure from the longer locks that had once adorned his head. You wondered if he had cut his hair before or after he had killed his father? Or had he cut his hair for that reason alone?

A new chapter. Cut the dead weight. Just like he’d cut down Beron.

To kill a parent. To kill your own father. Not that Beron didn’t have it coming, it was rightfully deserved but you wondered what toll that would have on someone. You knew of the scars Beron had left on his sons, even if they hadn’t told you. You had always heard under their words. And you hoped now, that they could heal and find some semblance of peace with their monster of a father gone.

Memories flooded back of a time when your mother would take you for playdates in Autumn. Eris along with his brothers would often tease you. It was because of those moments you and Lucien had gotten so close. Seeking unity in one another when hiding together as children from his older brother's taunts.

Eris was the kinder one out of the pack, at least back then. Perhaps kind wasn’t the right word to choose, but he was indifferent to you. He stood out as a somewhat mitigating force. Being the eldest and already grown, his words always carried a sharp edge, laced with venomous undertones, however there was a distinct lack of malice directed at you. Eris would often intercede his brothers teasing with biting remarks, questioning the rationale behind their actions when they would corner you and Lucein. 

I didn’t realise you were so weak that you had to pick on our baby brother and his little friend.

Perhaps if you weren’t so obsessed with Lucien and his little girlfriend you might have figured how to channel fire by now.

Why do you always bother her, do you like her? Should I tell Father about your little crush on the girl from Dawn?

His words were often curt and abrasive, but they never failed to disrupt the relentless onslaught of ridicule. You were young then, your ability had only reared its head in your early adulthood. But you wondered what you might have noticed within his words if you had been able to hear.

Your loyalties always lay with Lucien, but as much as you hated to admit it- you couldn't deny the undeniable allure of the eldest Vanserra brother. Sure, Lucien was undeniably beautiful, that was a fact you didn't need reminding of. But there was an enigmatic quality to Eris that had always intrigued you. In your early adulthood, you often caught yourself searching for the eldest Vanserra brother during your visits to Lucien, a secret desire you hoped Lucien never caught wind of.

You pulled your eyes away, not allowing him the satisfaction of noticing any indifference on you. You honed into the rest of the discussions, aiding Lucien when needed to keep conversations moving freely and light.

The new peace treaty between the courts and the humans was still fresh and hung delicately in the air. Despite the fervent desire for discussions to revolve solely around diplomatic relations and fostering harmony, there were inevitably topics that couldn't be skirted around.

Rhysand had taken charge of ensuring that any lingering remnants of former enemies were swiftly disbanded. It appeared that, for the time being, any remaining threats had retreated into the shadows.

Good. You hoped they withered away in their caves. The resentment you harboured against the people who had caused your home, your land so much pain was something you were sure everyone in this room could relate to.

With a successful conclusion the meeting came to an end, leaving you with ample opportunity to mingle among the courts and assess the collective mood and gain insight to how this inaugural gathering had been perceived. A quick look at Lucien told you everything you needed to know, and you both swiftly walked in opposite directions to begin addressing the courts independently.

Tamlin was first on your left. And you offered him a respectful bow and small smile.

“Heard you’re abandoning me” there was that bitterness that always hung on his words nowadays. However the depressive lull of his tone wasn’t as prevalent as it once was.

“Tamlin” you spoke softly, with an endearing look. “Your court is about to embark on it’s renewal, something you should be tremendously proud of.”

His features were set in a tight expression, lines of frustration etched into his brow as he regarded you with a mixture of wariness and scepticism. His once noble visage now bore the marks of weariness and resentment, a shadow of the High Lord he had once been.

You continued “But with Lucien once being your emissary, we felt he had the best expertise when it came to resettling some of your residents, I’m sure seeing a familiar face will be reassuring to them” Tamlin's response was guarded, his jaw clenched as he absorbed your words. He couldn’t deny you were right.

You usually always were.

"Of course, I'm only a correspondence away if you truly need my help," you reassured him, reaching forward to give his forearm a delicate squeeze. "Don't be a stranger, Tamlin."

With a reluctant nod, Tamlin conceded to your words, his expression softening ever so slightly as he bid you farewell and winnowed away.

That went better than expected, you thought. Grateful that Tamlin’s days of tantrums seemed to be over, but you did worry for him and his court. You hoped he and Lucien would be able to work through their problems together and get Spring flourishing once more.

You knew of the friction between Tamlin and other courts, particularly Night. It was not lost on you. Lucien had provided insight into the underlying conflicts and grievances, filling you in on the gaps that gossip hadn’t shared. While you understood the ramifications of Tamlin's actions, you couldn't help but feel a sense of compassion for the Spring Court and its inhabitants.

You wanted to see Spring thrive once more, to provide a safe haven for those who had spent their lives within its borders. This was a goal both you and Lucein shared.

As Tarquin approached with a radiant smile, his white hair flowing gracefully over his blue and gold attire, you returned the gesture with a respectful bow of your head. His presence exuded warmth and vitality, his rich brown skin glowing under the gentle rays of dawn that filtered into the room.

"I believe you'll be taking care of Summer," he remarked, his smile widening as he acknowledged your new role.

"Tarquin, Varian," you greeted, inclining your head towards both him and his attendee with a bow. "I'm looking forward to supporting you both, and I have to say… I am a lover of the sun and sea, so I'm sure my visits to Summer will be my weekly highlight," you added with a light smirk, hoping to sweeten the interaction with a touch of flattery.

"I hope that will be the case,” Tarquin replied warmly, his tone filled with genuine enthusiasm. As he took your hand, you felt a rush of warmth as he pressed a gentle kiss upon it. “I look forward to our relationship and seeing what we can do together for my court, and of course for all of Prythian," he bid you farewell, and with a nod to Varian, they both winnowed away.

You didn’t need to rely on your ability to hear the unspoken to understand what that was. It was evident in the way Tarquin looked at you. A genuine fondness in his eyes, a warmth that spoke volumes. It was clear that he liked you…and attention from a handsome High Lord was not something you were opposed to. 

You felt a gaze and you looked back gently to see Lucien giving you a knowing look with a slight smirk. He’d seen the interaction then. You’re sure he’d have something snarky to say later about it.

༄ 

You were left with the looming shadowy energy that had been in the corner of the room – the Night Court. Azriel was to greet you first, stepping away as his High Lord and Lady were engrossed in a conversation with Winter.

You turned to the Shadowsinger, your hand outstretched in a very human gesture of greeting, a deliberate choice made by you and Lucien to foster bridges with both the Fae and humans. Adopting some of their mannerisms wouldn’t hurt. Plus, Azriel was your equal; you would not bow to him.

Azriel hesitated for a moment, a fleeting pause that had you searching for its cause. But that reluctance dissolved as you felt his large hand envelop yours. You felt the jagged edges of lines on his palm pressing against your soft skin, scars that covered every inch of his hand, that had you curious to what had caused such a thing. Without glancing down, your eyes remained locked on the Shadowsinger's gaze as you gently squeezed his hand back in a firm shake.

“It’s nice to finally put a name to a face,” Azriel spoke as your hands parted.

“I hope I don’t disappoint,” you teased, the words slipping out before you could stop them. Perhaps it was the familiarity that had grown in these past weeks that allowed such a remark to escape.

A glint of something unfamiliar flickered in Azriel’s eye, his lips quirking into a slight smirk. But before you could hear his words, you sensed the powerful presence of another, and you swiftly turned to bow to the Night Court's High Lord and Lady.

“Rhysand, it’s been a long time. It’s good to see you again,” you greeted warmly, recalling brief encounters at events when you were both much younger, before he’d even ascended to High Lord. 

Rhys nodded in agreement before introducing you to Feyre.

“Your reputation precedes you,” you remarked, turning to the High Lady, who returned your smile.

Cursebreaker. Cauldron-blessed. High Lady of the Night Court.

“As does yours. Lucien said he was enlisting the help of a trusted friend. Glad to see another female in the room,” Feyre replied, her tone light and welcoming.

“Ah, yes.” You gave a knowing nod to the outdated misogynistic rules of the land “I have a long-term plan. Just give it a year, and I believe it will be us females who dominate these meetings,” you joked playfully.

“Now that is something I would like to see,” Rhys teased, nudging his mate playfully.

Feyre laughed lightly before continuing, her voice carrying a warm tone. “We’ve been told we fall under your jurisdiction now.”

You nodded, acknowledging the shift. “I will be splitting my time equally across the courts under my care.”

“I’m glad,” Feyre replied, her gaze thoughtful. “Azriel said you were quite adept in your work. You've apparently got Spring Court back up and running”

You smiled at the mention of Azriel's appraisal. You noticed him shuffling slightly on his feet at his mention, his shadows swirling around him in an almost teasing manner “Nice to know someone was singing my praises,” you quipped, but you heard the unspoken words of Feyre’s remark. 

You knew of her time in Spring, a time she was definitely not fond of. But you could hear in her words that she was digging for something. “Sure, me and Tamlin have been able to collaborate for the renewal of his court. I’m pleased it has been so successful, to finally have it’s residents returning home”

Whether that was the response Feyre was hoping for you’re not sure, but she merely nodded her head. You excused yourself from their company to finally greet the flickering energy that had been heating it’s way across the room to you. You stood before Eris, his imposing presence overshadowed by his two brothers snickering behind him as you offered a respectful bow.

“Eris.” you greeted respectfully. There was a part of you that had been hesitant to look after Autumn, however you couldn’t bear the thought of leaving them under Lucien. 

Eris merely smirked, his demeanour suggesting he relished the moment you had to bow before him. He reached out, his touch warm yet firm as he grasped your wrist and examined your sleeve with a critical eye.

“Leaves, really? I thought flames best represented my court,” he remarked, his tone teasing.

You withdrew your hand quickly, his touch feeling oddly inappropriate in the formal setting. It served as a stark reminder that regardless of your newfound title, you would always be seen as his little brother's best friend.

Swallowing hard, you met his gaze with narrowed eyes, defending your choice of attire. “Autumn has always symbolised a transitional time within the seasons, a new beginning. I felt it best represented the fresh start we are embarking on. I thought it mirrored the new chapter you seek as well.”

Eris’s brothers rolled their eyes behind him, but you held your ground, unyielding in your stance. Eris couldn’t refute your words; you had spoken the truth. With Beron’s reign over, Eris was indeed ushering in a new era for his court.

“You and your pretty words…” Eris mused, his tone bordering on slight admiration.

“I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know your court falls under my jurisdiction,” you announced confidently.

“Oh good, do we get you for two months as well? Or do you only whore yourself off to Tamlin?” one of Eris’s brothers interjected with a crude remark. Eris shot his brother with a deathly reprimanding glance that shut him up instantly.

You bit back a retort, knowing that maintaining composure was paramount. Especially in this setting.

Instead you would use your pretty words and smart mouth.

“I didn’t realise Autumn felt neglected. I’ll make a note,” you replied evenly. “I will be visiting Autumn for two days every week, if that suffices. But if your court is in dire need of additional support, I can inquire with the other courts about allocating more time to you.”

“That will not be needed,” Eris replied curtly, cutting off any further discussion on the matter. He would not have any insinuation that his court needed support, that his reign was weak.

That was exactly the response you had expected. You gave him a knowing look, his stare challenging yours as a small smirk played on his lips. He was enjoying this you realised, enjoying your company, enjoying the challenge you presented. And as he gently licked his bottom lip, his gaze still prowling over you, you realised he was enjoying what he was seeing too.

As you stood in the midst of the exchange with Eris, you noticed a slight movement out of the corner of your eye. Sensing the shift in energy, you turned slightly to glance over your shoulder, finding the piercing gaze of the Shadowsinger fixed upon Eris. His eyes bore into Eris with an intensity that sent a shiver down your spine, an unmistakable venom simmering beneath the surface.

You were aware of their previous altercation, but you hadn’t realised how deep their hatred ran.

The Shadowsinger didn’t like any of the Vanserra brothers then– noted.

Eris, catching the subtle exchange, rolled his eyes lightly, a small huff escaping his lips, barely noticeable to anyone but you. 

"It'll be nice to see you among the autumn leaves again, y/n," Eris purred with an air of indifference before he and his brothers swiftly winnowed away. However for a split second you swore you saw it. When his amber eyes fell back to yours, you swore you saw that kindness he always kept hidden.

༄ 

As the last of the attendees left the meeting chamber, you and Lucien shared a glance, a mixture of relief and satisfaction evident in both your expressions.

"I think that went well," you remarked, a small smile tugging at the corners of your lips.

Lucien nodded in agreement, linking his arm with yours. "Better than expected, considering the diverse personalities we had to deal with." he chuckled with an eye roll.

You nodded in agreement, smiling softly with a playful glint in your eye. "Looks like the real work begins now, eh?"

Lucien laughed heartily, falling into step beside you as you made your way out of the chamber. 

“Make sure you’re being careful though” Lucien said in a moment of seriousness. You tilted your head to look at him, trying to understand what he meant in that. 

Was it your interaction with Tarquin, or something else entirely?

"I’m always careful Lucie” You replied, offering a reassuring smile before pivoting back.  “Let the peacekeeping begin." You declared, your fist pumping the air with determination.

Lucien couldn't resist a playful jab, muttering under his breath, "Why does this feel more like we're babysitting everyone?"

Laughter bubbled between the two of you as you exited the meeting chamber, ready to embrace the challenges of maintaining peace and unity among the courts.

How hard could peacekeeping be anyway?

Predictive Astrology: How it works

Predictive astrology is a form of astrology that can help you predict things in your future. There are many different methods, but the most popular ones I will be discussing today are transits, planetary and luminary returns, solar return charts, lunar return charts, chart progressions, house rulers, and annual profections. Here is an explanation of what they all are along with some examples to help you have a deeper understanding:

Transits are aspects from the current chart to your natal chart which show how the current chart’s energy is effecting us. They can be used to predict events days, weeks, months, or even years ahead of time. Transits show predictions for the emotions, challenges, or events of an individual day

⋆ ★ | A Moon square Saturn transit can indicate having a challenging time emotionally that day

⋆ ★ | Venus transiting your 7th house can indicate a good day for romance or a new long term relationship beginning that day

⋆ ★ | A Venus opposite Neptune transit can indicate lies being told in a relationship that day

Your progressed chart/chart progressions, also known as secondary progressions, equate one day after birth to one year of life. It is believed that they reflect the evolution of your personality over time. This is the best method for predicting what your emotions will be like during certain time periods and the internal emotions you will go through

⋆ ★ | I personally have noticed during the time my progressed moon is in Cancer I’ve been extremely emotional and cried a lot more than usual

⋆ ★ | Your Progressed Moon in the 2nd house can indicate your soul having an extreme focus on material things and money

Annual profections are one of the oldest predictive astrology techniques used and personally one of my faves. Everyone has the same houses in the same years but different planetary rulers in each house depending on their rising sign

⋆ ★ | During your 1st house years there can be a major changes in your appearance

⋆ ★ | During a Mars, 5th house, or 8th house profection year you are more likely to have an active sex life or lose your virginity if you haven’t already

⋆ ★ | During 10th house years, Jupiter years, or Venus years you can gain a lot more success and wealth

Luminary/planetary returns calculate the exact moment, when a particular planet returns on the same birth position and can show energies/events that will occur during that time

⋆ ★ | Your Saturn returns are typically the most challenging times in your life. Some people say if you are Saturn dominant then it won’t have as strong of an effect though since you’re already used to the energy

⋆ ★ | Your Jupiter returns can indicate time periods you’ll have/gain lots of success and abundance in life

Solar return charts are one of my fave methods in astrology for predicting the main themes and events that happen in your year. Everyone has annual solar return chart’s each year — src tut

⋆ ★ | A Leo rising can indicate gaining fame or being very popular where you live this year

Astrology observations III

✨Not a professional astrologer, take with serving spoons of salt✨

Highlights: Venus, Mars, Saturn, Neptune, 2h, 3h.

Whatever natal house the ascendant of your solar return chart is in will show the major focus of that year.

Saturn in the first house people are like popular and very friendly, but also not very confident and very softly spoken at the same time?? I don't really know how to describe it but I know a lot of people like this.

High amounts of water and air placements can show a real aesthetic sensibility (not as much as Libra Venus) but with general art, passion and knowledge for music, literature, painting, any art really, but I very rarely meet fire+earth people who have a passion for art.

Libra Mars hate confrontation, they will try so hard to avoid arguments and are the sort of people that say "I don't feel like discussing this right now" any time you try to address a problem

Gemini venus love to talk so much. They will just social butterfly with strangers at the supermarket and everything.

Moon conjunct Saturn is unassumingly observant in my experience, like they can be saying how bored they in a museum or something are but later will recount literally every object they saw in detail.

Dear Venus in the same sign as your ascendant, what is it like to have confidence about your appearance.

Descendant x Ascendant opposition synastry is so powerful. You just pick them out in a crowd of people and can't stop thinking about them, and it's a two way thing. Especially potent when Venus is in the mix.

Saturn in the third house can indicate really bad relationships with siblings.

Neptune and Jupiter in the second house often have very sonorous voices. Loud but kinda soft, and with very interesting vocabulary.

Money in Astrology

Hey yall! I’m back today with a new post that’s going to discuss all things about your money! Yes, you can use astrology to help better your financials and what you can do to live a comfortable life that suits you!

To understand your money situation, you need 3 different charts to look at, Look at this like a cake, there’s 3 charts which means 3 layers:

First layer is your Natal Chart: this is the base on how to gain money. It’s the abilities you were born with and what you’ve learned from past lives

2nd layer is your Progessed chart: this is the 2nd layer to how to gain money. Progressed chart is the stage you are in life currently

3rd layer is your Solar Return Chart: this is the final layer to gain money. Solar return aka “your birthday” is the overall energy of that year for you.

The frosting of the cake is you putting this all together.

For one example: let’s say in your natal chart you have a Gemini 2h, Progressed has Cancer 2h and Solar has Aquarius 2h. Let’s put it all together.

So let’s say you’re a writer for a journalism company because Gemini rules over writing and Journalism. This is what you were naturally drawn to do to make a living. Now let’s say 10 years has passed by and now your 2h is in Cancer in your progressed chart. You’re still a writer because that’s still your natal placement, but now you want shift things up so instead of working for a company, you work from home (Cancer 2h)writing from a blog/website you created, something like Patreon. Instead of the regular 9-5, you make your own money but still doing what you original love which is writing. Now let’s say you want to know how your upcoming year financial will be. So you see you have an Aquarius 2h in your solar return chart which is perfect if you have an internet type of job that you’re trying to grow. Aquarius rules online and groups of people so your subscribers may grow that year which means more money.

Now planets in the 2h, and aspects if you have planets in the 2h influence this as well. Like if you have Aquarius moon in the 2h, you may feel alienated from you family during this time because you’re so focused on your blog. Your subscribers may start to feel more like family to you etc.

I know that was a long example but I want you all to really understand how to interpret this in your own lives and charts. I have Virgo 3h so I’m all about the details 🤪

Now that we got what kind of charts to look for and how to interpret them, let’s discuss what to actually look for in these charts!

1. The 2nd House + Planets in the 2h(if you have any), if not look for the 2h ruler + planetary degrees and house degrees (if your using Placidus house system)

-the 2h rules over physical money in general so this is is where you first look to get an idea to see what you can do to make it. This house is where you will start to build your wealth. 2h also rules over our values and assets. How you value and see money based on your upbringing can be seen here as well.

2. The House where Taurus rules in your charts

-Taurus rules the 2h naturally so wherever it rules in your charts, that’s an area where you can make money from as well.

3. Your Venus sign + degree + house placement + aspects to Venus

-Venus rules over money because it rules over Taurus. So even if you don’t know what to do by just looking at your 2h or Taurus house, look at your Venus placement

4. The 8th house. Use the same process for this house as you did the the 2h.

-the 8h is the opposite of the 2h. The 2h is physical money but the 8h is the power of money. It’s how you use your money in your life. 8h also rules other people money such as your partner. You can gain money through inheritance, you can have lots of debts too. 8h rules over loans as well.

5. Scorpio. Use the same process as Venus

-Scorpio is ruled by modern ruler Pluto and traditional ruler Mars. Pluto means “wealth” . I personally think it shows the power of wealth. Mars rules over action, Passionate and drive. You can make money and build wealth by using your Scorpio placements and house. What are you passionate about, what the thing that lights your soul on fire? That’s what you can make money from. Scorpio rules over alchemy, you can turn your passion into a goldmine. Money can change and end lives which is very Scorpio energy

6. 11th house

-not many people talk about the 11th house when it comes to money but it does play a role. It rules over “collected wealth” because it’s what you’ve been saving during your working career years. Using derivative houses (counting the houses) STARTING from the 10th house, it’s 2 spaces away from the 11h. So 10, 11=2 because we only counted 2 spaces over. The 2 represents the 2h.

If you’re confused about the derivative house method, go to my pinned post and scroll to learning tools and scroll down to derivative astrology post to get a better idea.

-The 11h also rules over connections and networking. You can literally make money based off of who you know and who knows you.

7. The house Aquarius sits

-like I said above, Aquarius rules over groups of people and networking. We are in a digital age now so making money off the internet is easy to do now compared to 20 years ago when technology was just coming up. Social media influencer is an actual career now that comes with lots privileges if you stick with it and meet the right people. Also look and see where Uranus and Saturn sits because aqua is ruled by both of these planets.

Thank you all for reading and if you need a birth chart, I’m open to help ya! Look at my pinned post for more details

The bus is late. You tug uncomfortably at the mask of your pressure suit. This isn't your first time wearing one by any means, but it certainly doesn't help make the walls of the city leaning in around you feel any less stifling. An old man lowers himself onto the bench next to you. "Y'on't look like yer from here. Mariner Valley?" You reflexively jump in your seat a little, alarmed by the unprompted attempt at conversation. "Y-yeah. How could you tell?" "Ah, all you communists look the feckin same." You open your mouth as if to speak, before electing not to respond.

WELCOME TO MARS MOTHERFUCKERS

It is two hundred and fifty-odd years in the future. Mars, once a cold dead husk, is now a developed world with bustling industry and a contested legal status that hasn't become a problem yet because everyone chooses to ignore it. The planet has slowly been gaining a breathable atmosphere, not through any concerted terraforming effort, but instead because oxygen is produced as a byproduct of many metal refining processes. After over a century of heavy industry, the parts of the planet's surface at low elevation have a high enough atmospheric pressure that crops can be grown in the open air, and humans can survive without needing a pressure suit.

Which parts of the planet become breathable first has a huge impact on Martian socioeconomics, leading me to perhaps my strangest science fiction writing project yet:

THE REGIONAL STEREOTYPES OF MARS

EAT MY TAINT YOU GODDAMN MARINER HIPPIES

Hellas

Hellas is a large impact basin surrounded by the southern highlands. Its very low elevation means it was one of the first parts of the Martian surface to have arable land, and provided the majority of the planet's food before most agriculture moved north. The height of the surrounding terrain traps in moisture, resulting in it being the most lush part of Mars, containing its only wild grasslands. Hellas is the most populous region of Mars, and is home to the planets colonial administrative capital of Badwater.

Hellas' habitability and developed infrastructure means it is the region of Mars most frequently visited by outsiders. Its culture and general appearance have become Earth's main conception of the planet.

Hellas is positioned on the opposite side of the planet to Mars' other major population centers, so overland travel is inconvenient and uncomfortable. This has made it quite culturally isolated, with much of the planet seeing the region's citizens as stuck up, backwards, and blind to the plight of the average Martian. Having the planet's oldest settlements, Hellas' residents view themselves as being the "real" Martians, and hold some resentment towards the rest of the planet for being so weak-willed and forgetting their roots.

Chryse

Chryse is a large, flat plain in the northern hemisphere. Its elevation is mostly not low enough to be habitable to humans without pressure suits, but genetically modified plants thrive in the nutrient-rich alluvial soil. Though Chryse's population is quite small, only having a couple of dense towns located in deep craters, it provides a majority of the planet's food.

Chryse's inhabitants are commonly perceived as easygoing, hospitable and a bit simple-minded. That is, if they are perceived at all. Despite its importance, the region is often forgotten in discussions of Mars.

As its exports are mostly local to Mars and occasionally to the outer solar system, the region finds itself largely isolated from Earth politics. This is a point of pride for its inhabitants, who consider themselves for this reason to be truest Martians, embodying a spirit of independence and self-reliance.

Mariner Valley

Mariner Valley is a system of rift valleys near Mars' equator. Its higher elevation means that it became habitable slightly later than Hellas, but the moderate climate and abundant water make it highly desirable as a place of habitation. Originally it served as a staging point for people and cargo moving to and from mining settlements on Tharsis, but it slowly evolved into a highly developed center for manufacturing and industry.

The region's value as a manufacturing hub which is easily accessible to the outer solar system makes it highly desirable to Earth corporations, who have long been vying for political influence in the area. This is met with resistance from many of the locals, upset that the fruits of their labor are largely spent on the interests of Earth instead of bettering their own planet. Mariner Valley is the nucleus of a socialist independence movement, and is currently under partial administration by the Martial Coalition. This is allowed to exist as it serves to take some administrative burden off of the colonial government and doesn't inconvenience them, though any acknowledgment of its existence is completely informal and under very vaguely defined terms.

Depending on who you ask, Mariner Valley is either a place for well-meaning but starry-eyed and unrealistic idealists, or a rotting trench full of communists. Its anyone's guess, really. Broadly, Mariner Valley sees itself as the future of Mars: real, red-blooded Martians who truly believe in their people.

Tharsis

Tharsis Rise, often simply "the rise", is a massive plateau around the Martian equator. Its high altitude and harsh winds render it uninhabitable. Its valuable deposits of highly accessible ore minerals mean that people live there anyways. A pressure suit is needed to be outside here. At moderate altitudes, a partial counterpressure suit to assist with breathing is sufficient. In the mountains, full body pressures suits are necessary to prevent bodily fluids from flash boiling.

Settlements in this region are largely run by Earth corporations and structured entirely around resource extraction. Despite the huge value of the area's resources, it remains among the planet's poorest. Escaping poverty proves particularly difficult when your boss sets the price of oxygen. Public perception is largely divided, with some people seeing the struggles of Tharsis as a symbol of Mars' oppression, and others seeing it as their just comeuppance for being lazy and reliant on handouts from Earth.

The population of Tharsis is spread out, and apart from a few large settlements with good transportation, isolated from the rest of the planet. They are not linked by kinship nor ideology, but are together in their misery. They're born in the dirt, they work in the dirt, and they die in the dirt. In the dirt, they're one people, and what's more truly Martian than that?

All elevation maps were made with MOLA data using JMARS

ALL ABOUT LEO ASCENDANT

Back again folks, this time to discuss the Leo Ascendant!

As always, what is the ascendant? it is our mask. The world sees us as our ascendant while it manifests personally as our overall outlook on life. In addition, it represents our soul's journey/purpose, how we approach new situations, determines our house rulers, and manifests the purest expression of our energy.

Let's start off with our Leo Ascendant chart ruler, the Sun. Like the Cancer, Leo is also ruled by a luminary. Having the Sun as the chart ruler makes these folks very solar in nature. Think about the Sun in our own solar system...it sits in its own radiance, generating heat and light for Earth without having to do much more than rotate. Leo Ascendant's can be like this themselves. They radiate who they are unapologetically, approaching situations with an authenticity and a bravery not many can replicate.

And so these Ascendants are usually easy to spot. They are bubbly, spontaneous, fun, loud, gregarious. They usually have a distinct sense of style, something that can act as a trademark or an identifier. Leos love to be themselves and the ascendants manifest this easily. Perhaps you, Leo Ascendant, possess a glorious mane or bright sparkly eyes. These natives are expressive and jolly, radiating the light of their inner child through their presentation.

Stubbornness is a quality of the Leo Ascendant as well, for this is a fixed sign in fire. Leo Ascendants take the stage and they do so with ease, allowing everyone else to bask in their radiance as they embody who they feel themselves to be. Now not every Leo Ascendant will be outgoing and upbeat, this is ultimately dependent on other aspects in the chart. What you can always guarantee is that they'll stick out from the crowd, someway, somehow (much like their Aquarius opposition!).

The whole stage metaphor is a good way to describe how Leo Ascendants see the world. Where can they express themselves best? With whom? How do they manifest their creative expression? Where do they want to be the authority? Leo certainly doesn't mind being the center of attention, so they'll gravitate towards situations and places that allow them to be.

With a 10th ruled by Taurus, Leo Risings are here to create a long-lasting image, sustained through consistent attention and dedication. Your higher purpose lies in building something beautiful, nourishing, and long-lasting for you and for others. It is you, Leo who becomes gifted at organizing your own power--at managing your own light and presenting yourself in a powerful way. Perhaps you teach others to build a strong foundation for themselves, in affairs of money and land. Perhaps you are known for your more Venusian talents; art, expression, relationships. Whatever it is you do, you will be a professional "Taurus". Pleasure is your principle, Leo! You must define this for yourself without being consumed by it. You tailor your work environment to you, creating the best circumstances for you to shine and create and radiate.

A 7H Aquarius creates a need for partners and relationships that teach Leo how to belong. Often the Leo Rising individuates themselves and doesn't know how to follow the crowd. It's good to be you, but Aquarius has the natural ability to be different and belong at the same time. They are conscious of their influence within the group and use it for higher purposes. Leo can learn the ways in which they are the same as others in relationships and in turn, put their ego aside. Through your relationships you learn humility, sacrifice, service, and detachment.

In addition, a 7H Aquarius can also indicate attracting friends and partners who are different and unique in some way. Leo is looking for someone not to outshine them, but for someone who they can shine with. Leo will likely admire those individuals who refuse to conform and embody their individuality in new and exciting ways. They may be picky about the people they choose to surround themselves with.

And the 4H in Scorpio? Leo Risings often keep a part of themselves private. The world is their stage, yes, but do we see you when the sun sets Leo? Do we get a peek into your private, innermost world? Leo may need their homes to be a place where they recharge and introspect. Where they get to process their experiences and shed skin that does not serve them.

Their homes may also be places where they turn into control freaks! Scorpio is an obsessive energy and these natives can be meticulous both in the world and in the home as well. Things must be done a certain way...or else. Your family may be some of the most loyal people you know, and you like to return that same sense of devotion.

It also may be that your family was manipulative, toxic, and controlling. This fosters in the Leo Rising a deep need to liberate themselves and find a sense of freedom and levity in life. The home environment might have suppressed aspects of the Leo that shone too brightly.

Leo, truly you want to invest deeply into others and give yourself emotionally to the people you love. You shine in the hopes of helping others grow and you give to stoke the flames of others. You are a benefactor and a leader. The one to take the throne and express both ego and soul. Own yourself, Leo and let yourself shine!

Storm in 2023

• Still the Main in Lead in X-men Red, the best written X-book. Storm ended Brand's attempts to colonize Planet Arrakko, successfully whooped Charles ass after he invaded her mind and banned him from Arakko, became the leader of Genesis opposition in the Civil War for Arrakko's future.

• Led a mini series where she's the Commander of the resistance against Sinisters Empire that lasts centuries. Storm, lives to over a 100 and swallows a solar system sized fortress to weaken Sinister's influence and power in combination of magic and elemental powers. She is then ressurected in further in the future and battles one last time before the future is averted.

• in Immortal X-men where she confronted the Quiet Council with their corruption at Sinister's to encourage a change and later resigns.

• Got a prequel solo

• In a Scarlet Witch back up story, Storm has her magical lineage discussed with the Scarlet Witch herself who notes Storm's magical power and abilities, and Storm consciously casts a spell for the first time.

• Fights Iron Man in a Contest of Chaos and reads him lol She obviously won.

• Features in Immortal Thor, Thor Odinson enlists the "Goddess of Thunder" to help him fight a primordial thunder god. They have a short fight where they both show their power before Storm throws Mjolnir and deems her worthy. The Asgardian power boosts her physical powers and makes her aware of the primordial threat, so she fights alongside his Thor Corps.

A very successful year. I only hope she gets a great writer and artist next year.

Astrology Observations 🎆

Hey everyone! This is just a random compilation of Astrology Observations & Tips 🤍

Please do NOT repost any of my work on any other social media platform 🤍

It’s so interesting because I’ve noticed that there are many people who have a Sagittarius IC (4th house) who have immigrated! Many of them don’t live in their birth the country, or they’ve found themselves moving a lot throughout their lives.

Jupiter in the 4th house can indicate coming for a very big family, or wanting to have a big family in the future. Alternatively, it could mean that you were raised in a very religious home. It could also mean that education, or the need for education & long-distance travel (or the need to ‘broaden your horizons’) was very emphasized in your home.

Women with Venus-Pluto aspects in their charts (especially the opposition, conjunction & square) often attract envy or hostility from other women.

Saturn in the 7th house of a Composite Chart can indicate the potential for marriage/long-term relationship.

Neptune in the 3rd house of a Composite Chart can indicate potential deception when it comes to the communication between the two people. They may not always intend to deliberately deceive the other, and it’s possible that they may at times think that they are protecting the other by withholding certain information. However, open, and honest communication is the best way to navigate this placement. If the 3rd house Neptune receives trines, or sextiles from the other planets, it could just indicate that the two frequently discuss the arts, spirituality, and creativity together. However, if the Neptune receives squares and oppositions, this could indicate deceptive, or dishonest communication between the two, this is especially true if it is mercury that is squaring the Neptune.

Although having ‘Sun square Moon’ in synastry is considered quite binding and alluring. Overtime the two people may find that there’s a disconnect between them. They may feel as if they are just two different people, with two very different approaches & temperaments in life. The moon person may feel as if the Sun person doesn’t really try and understand their emotional nature. They may feel as if the Sun person wants things to be done their way, with little to no consideration for their feelings (the moon persons feelings).

The generation that has their Chiron in Scorpio are no strangers to transformation! These individuals have been exposed to extreme circumstances, and they likely will go through many cycles of ‘death & Rebirth’ in their lives! If breaking ‘generational curses’ was a placement, I’d honestly argue that it would be having your Chiron in Scorpio.

Uranus or Saturn in the 4th house of a solar return chart can indicate a house move that year. This is especially true of Uranus is making a square to your Moon that year!

If someone else’s Venus makes a square to your Ascendant, this does not always mean they don’t find you attractive! It could also mean that they are drawn to you, even though you are not their usual type.

Living on your Chiron line in astrocartography can bring up issues related to your Chiron. You will experience deep healing or the potential to develop significant (emotional, psychological or physical) wounds in this location. It can go either way. If you’ve made peace with your Chiron, and healed all that is hurt within you, you will likely find loving on your Chiron line a lot easier than someone who has not yet healed all of their pain.

Having your Sun opposite Saturn may indicate maturing, or receiving major responsibilities later than your peers! I’ve seen this in a lot of charts of people who were able to get on their own two feet later than the norm. For example, they may have gotten their license, first job, or first home later than most! It doesn’t mean that these people are ‘immature’ they often just get the hang of ‘adult responsibilities’ later than most.

Your IC (4th house cusp) can also show you the environments in which you feel safe in, or emotionally nurtured in! Please note that I’m not referring to the planets in your 4th house, I’m just referring to the sign on your 4th house cusp. For example, people with a Taurus IC , feel safe in environments that are familiar to them. Physical comfort & security are key for these people to feel emotionally safe and secure.

You may potentially start a new job or have significant developments in your career when you have a New Moon transiting your 6th or 10th house.

Full moons or Eclipses occurring in your 12th house, often push you to heal any unresolved psychological trauma. They are not easy transits, especially eclipses occurring on the 6H/12H axis! But they force you to re-examine and re-visit your traumas so that you may move forward. I often associate ‘spiritual awakenings’ with eclipses happening in the 12th house.

If you have the ruler of your 10th house, placed in your 9th, you may travel abroad a lot for work. Alternatively, you may work as a professor or some kind of teacher!

If you have the ruler of your 2nd house placed in the 1st, you may have the potential to earn money from your looks/personality! Your physical appearance & personality are very key to your financial earnings.

If you have the ruler of your 2nd house placed in the 3rd, you may earn money through your siblings, writing, learning or short-distance travels!

Ko-Fi Prompt from @apprendere:

Economics topic: ethical investing (what definitions are they using when companies like amazon are on lists of ethical/social/green stocks?)

This one took me a bit of research 😅

My first instinct is that those are frequently greenwashing, and that any individual company needs to be investigated for those claims, personally, before actually going ahead to invest. I'm generally hesitant to call most investment/stocks ethical, but there are ways and reasons for ethics in the given industry (as discussed here with @rhokitten and @dasnya).

Green-chip stocks are, by name, a play on blue-chip stocks (established, stable, reliable companies that are unlikely to waver overly much if the economy takes a bad turn). Green chip companies are those that claim to be environmentally sustainable, or to support the environment in some way. If the company in question is one that works directly in environmental sustainability, such as solar panels or wind farms or organic farming tools, that's probably not a lie.

However... you also get companies like Ford claiming to be green. Now, from what I can tell so far, they have been cutting down on carbon emissions for two decades now, but any large company that historically relies on gas or oil claiming to be green is... a bit questionable. The Climate Town video on Carbon Offsets is a good primer on understanding how large transportation and vehicle manufacturing companies can use 'green' language to claim progress while effectively not changing any of their practices. With Ford, we've seen minor cuts in manufacturing pollution, but as this Guardian article points out, they still advertise for massive cars with terrible mpg... which is a related issue, because said massive cars, the SUVs and 'extended cab' pickups are unregulated compared to sedans and other, smaller vehicles (see: Not Just Bikes video).

Ford spends a lot of money advertising a car that is the opposite of green, and doesn't actually provide a use for the vast majority of people buying it. Unless you work in an industry where you need to haul large, dirty equipment on the regular, like on a farm or in construction or landscaping, you don't need a pick-up truck. And if you do work in those industries, an extended cab is generally not helpful.

So Ford is talking good game, but... is it following through? That's up for debate.

You mentioned Amazon, so I went to look at their Climate Pledge Fund. They mention a "net-zero carbon goal," which already sends up red flags, as explained in the aforementioned Carbon Offsets video. They do seem to be investing in a lot of companies that will theoretically make their future work have less of an environmental impact; the companies include electric vehicles, renewable energy, and custom packaging to reduce waste. It all sounds good.

But what do the critics say?

In this Thomson Reuters Foundation article, Khalil Abdullah addresses how Amazon has historically hidden most of its information on environmental impacts, engaged in a number of greenwashing campaigns, and shoved numbers on its enormous pollution under the rug. Yet, despite this, it remains on the list of companies that the ESG (environmental, social, and governance) investors consider a viable choice, because it's... easy. It's a good investment financially, so they can just... look away from the complications, because the money and reputation is enough.

In my eyes, the concept of green stock is yet another form of greenwashing, one with no actual, specified definition, which means it's about as useful in understanding your investments as words like 'organic.' Unfortunately, it looks like this is going to continue being one of the ways companies lie to us, and any individual investment needs to be examined thoroughly before we can figure out what it is that we're actually supporting.

My suggestion would be to look into companies that are acting directly in support of environmentalism (solar and wind are probably safe), have a long and transparent history of environmentalism, from before it was trendy, or are small, local, and maybe new enough that they aren't killing the environment in the name of economies of scale.

Maybe if you get in early enough, you can grab enough shares to have a positive impact on future green initiatives!

there’s an episode of SHWEP where earl fontanelle (still can’t believe the guy is named like a thomas pynchon character) interviews a scholar of hellenistic astrology and practicing astrologer, and it’s an interesting discussion, about, like, how astrology was probably practiced historically and the role and development of birth charts, and how that specific kind of astrology was spread from the eastern mediterranean to far-away places like india and china and japan.

but, like

okay, the thing that kills me about astrology specifically as a form of divination, beyond all other forms of divination--all of which are ways of trying to reduce anxiety about the world by increasing the amount of knowledge (we feel) we have--is that haruspicy or yarrow stalks or cartomancy or oneiromancy, those all have a stochastic element to them, right? it’s an aid in pattern-matching, and it makes more plausible, as a diviner, that the information you obtain could be somehow tailored to your specific situation or question because it’s not determined in advance. i mean, the underlying mechanism is still nonsense; there is no mechanism; but “there is no mechanism” and “the mechanism is opaque” are, from the outside, sometimes difficult enough to distinguish in practice (especially to our pattern-matching brains) that it is, from the realm of normal everyday experience, plausible.

but astrology is... the exact opposite of this! since the planets reached their final orbits early in the formation of the solar system, their behavior has been predictable for millions of years in advance. there are No Surprises there, not at the length of human lifetimes or civilizations. ancient astrology was protoscientific in a way that other forms of divination were not, because even without understanding the keplerian laws of planetary motion or having a good theory of gravity, or even a decent model for the solar system as an object, you can make extremely accurate predictions about how the planets move, in a way that is anathema to the basic mechanism of almost all other forms of magic and divination, which must leave room for ambiguity so as to permit belief.

it’s consistent, i guess, in that if you ask the system the same question twice you will get the same answer, but as a method of divination, it completely lacks even basic plausibility. patterns so regular they can be predicted literally thousands of years in advance shouldn’t be something you can plausibly argue the reality of; they should scream at you from every corner of life experience. they should show up in every statistic ever compiled, on any subject. and not just the big stuff, like your sun sign, but all the little details about aspect and rising signs and what not, and moreover, it should be possible to determine which astrological system is correct.

this problem seems so basic that even many ancient astrologers, in both mesopotamia and the greek world, seem to have discounted the divinatory potential of astrology, and treated stuff like the zodiac as modern astronomers do, as simply a form of celestial reference. it is sufficiently different as a practice that even people who thought chicken livers were a good mechanism for inquiry into the future looked at it and said “i dunno, this smells like bullshit to me.”

I am in many, many a fandom, but only recently have I become part of active community's.

For years the fandoms I were a part of were so small or dead that noone talked about them, and I am still in these fandoms, but now that there are all these amazing new shows I love being made I have been shown how truly amazing large fandoms can be.

The fact I can go on a rant about how Stede Bonnet and Blackbeard fell inlove in excruciating detail, and have people understand what I am saying is the best feeling.

I can ramble about Solar Opposites and how the story of the wall has grown so much larger than I ever thought was possible and someone will understand me.

I can talk about Good Omens, What We Do In The Shadows, Good Omens, Solar Opposites, and so much more, and have a whole group of strangers start a discussion about it.

It just feels nice to be part of something.

And it feels nice to be seen.
