miscellaneous danyal al ghul things

specifically about the danyal al ghul from my post/prompt here and i wanna get my misc. headcanons/thoughts on him (especially in his early stay with the fentons) out here before i make any other danyal al ghul aus

list under the cut because whoops this got longer than i expected. which really i should have expected

the Fentons are unaffiliated with the League, which was perfect for Danny faking his death.

he struggles with empathy. Empathy was not taught nor encouraged while he was with the League, so it's a skill that's been pretty stunted. At 15 he's better at empathizing with people, but he still struggles with it. He's pretty bad at reassuring/comforting people and usually acts as an emotional rubber duck for Sam and Tucker to vent to if need be. He sometimes offers blunt and sometimes mean opinions, especially if its about another person.

Sam and Tucker do not know he's an ex-assassin, they are however, pretty positive that he used to be part of an eco-fascist cult with a focus on martial arts?? They've been helping him tone down some of his more,,, extreme views on humanity ever since they caught wind of his more extreme ideologies.

He and Sam are still avid environmentalists and feed into each other quite a bit. They spend plenty of time at protests and pestering the school into more eco-friendly options.

Dash is not dead on the sole fact that Danny knew he had to lay low in Amity Park and killing someone was not, in fact, 'laying low'.

he did, however, traumatize him when Dash first tried to bully him. Safe to say, Danny is not bullied at school and neither are Sam and Tucker.

Danny didn't make any friends in his first year at Amity Park. He was surly, grumpy, standoffish, more stubborn than Sam, and pretty self-important about himself. Jazz was trying to teach him against these things, but she is a 12 year old unaffiliated with the League. Danny did not respect her nor listen to a word she said. It wasn't until like, year two that he finally started paying to mind what she was saying and slowly started to improve on himself

Sam approached him first, he rebuffed her quite harshly, and then Danny approached her sometime afterward when he overheard her talking about environmental rights. Sam completely ignored him though when he agreed with her, and Danny had to later learn that he needed to apologize for being rude to her when they first met. He did so eventually, and they started to talk more with Tucker and Sam.

Danny's a bit more reserved than he is in canon, although he steadily learns how to act as a regular teenager when he's out in public. He's a bit more friendlier at least, although when he's around Sam and Tucker he drops the act. He still has a somewhat formal way of talking, it's just become more casual after a lot of ribbing from Sam and Tucker. When he's angry or annoyed he starts talking poshly though.

His humor is relatively the same as in canon, if somehow dryer and more insulting at some points

Those rare moments where he gets really pissed usually ends up with him insulting someone in arabic or any of the other languages he picked up from the league. He is the go-to for Tucker's Spanish homework. (Tucker makes that mistake and learns that Danny is a very strict teacher)

while Danny doesn't view the Fentons as his parents, even five years after living with them, he does respect them to some amount. He respects them enough at least that when Vlad Masters comes sniffing around, he is suitably offended on both Maddie and Jack's behalf. And when he finds out Vlad was the one who tried to kill Jack and tried to tell him to renounce him as his father/parental guardian, danny threw a suitably sharp object at him and insulted him quite horrendously

Vlad still wants him as his kid. In fact perhaps even moreso after this.

Danny trains with Maddie to keep up with his training. It's not quite the same but it prevents him from getting completely rusty

Sam and Tucker know that Danny has a little brother, but nothing else beyond that other than Danny cares about him quite a lot and that he got his facial scar from keeping him safe.

Danny cares about Sam, Tucker, and Jazz quite a bit, but he struggles to convey it. Especially early on when he realized he cared about them and like instinct started being harsher to them and more critical of their actions. This resulted in quite a few arguments with Sam and Tucker and Jazz until he got sat down and told outright that the way he was treating them wasn't okay. It's a process he's still trying to unlearn even at 15. He has become kinder towards them as a result, and has begun looking for what they did right rather than what they did wrong.

He harbors a lot of guilt over how he treated Damian in the League, and its a pretty big conflict he has with himself since he's torn between telling himself it was for the best to make sure Damian survived the League, and feeling like crap over how harsh/critical of Damian he was and realizing that he probably could have come up with a better way of training him despite being a child himself at the time. Danny comes to the realization that more than anything, that he just wants to apologize.

His ghost form, specifically is outfit, is a combination of his hazmat suit and his uniform from the league, and he carries a sword with him. He also doesn't know how to react to Dani, honestly. Although it is fair to say that he figures out she's a clone instantly because of her whole 'I'm your third cousin once removed' thing and he freaks out. She spills the beans pretty quickly after that. And Danny is pretty skittish around her - or the equivalent of skittish. Her being younger than him kinda reminds him of Damian, so he's uncomfortable by her presence but learns to warm up to her.

“As with most members of the Ten Thousand, both the full name and the specifics of tribune Felis Silvestris Juvenilis’ service remain shrouded in mystery, known only to his fellow Custodians. What is known, however, paints him not just as a mighty warrior and a wise leader - both characteristics inseparable from the image of the Emperor’s own guardians - but also as a great administrator and diplomat - traits no less inherent to Custodians, but far less known beyond the walls of the Imperial Palace.

What meager records are available on the history of Adeptus Custodes suggest tribune to be one of the most senior serving members of the organization, the length of his vigil rivaling that of the most ancient of the Moritoi. It is said that amidst tribunes he is the one who manages the often overlooked supply and logistics aspects of Adeptus Custodes operations. While appearing somewhat unglamourous to an outside observer, these tasks are held in great respect by Custodians themselves, not in the least because they include the duty to oversee the process of selection, creation and training of new Custodians.

It is in duties of such caliber that tribune Felis is said to have excelled for aeons, and excelled to such a degree that, according to some, he is viewed as something of a father figure by many of relatively younger Custodians. Though extremely unverified, such rumors are somewhat supported by the fact that the latest election for the position of Captain-General saw tribune Felis as a popular candidate, beaten narrowly - rumors say by as little as three votes - by Trajan Valoris.

At the same time, it is evident that tribune’s service was not limited to internal matters of Adeptus Custodes throughout the eras. Several records name him as the custodian who brought Alicia Dominica before the Emperor to put an end to Goge Van Dire’s reign of terror during the Age of Apostacy. He also appears in much more recent imperial history, leading a delegation of Emissaries Imperatus to help negotiate peace after the disastrous events of the Damocles Crusade.

His most well-documented exploits, however, come at the break of the current era, as the Noctis Aeterna fell upon the Emperor’s domain. According to fresh tomes within the Imperial Archive, not long before the outbreak of Cicatrix Maledictum, it was tribune Felis who came to Captain-General with concerns about how the decline and near extinction of their sister order, the dreaded Anathema Psykana, left Adeptus Custodes weakened against immaterial foes, their ability to carry out their duty compromised by millenia of passivity. The two held council, and Captain-General ordered tribune to begin the process of restoring the second Talon of the Emperor to its former glory. Subsequent events, culminating in the Battle of the Lion’s Gate, would prove both the wisdom of this decision, and the near-lateness of it.

Though begun in advance, the process of gathering and rebuilding strength of the Silent Sisterhood was nowhere near complete when the eighty-eight cohorts of Khorne struck at the Imperial palace. But it was due to this process that enough sisters were gathered at the orbit of Luna to intervene in another, no less critical battle. For it was then that an ancient aeldari webway gate, dormant for many millennia, awakened on the surface of Terra’s moon to let out none other than primarch Roboute Guilliman - miraculously resurrected and returned - and his companions, fighting a desperate retreating battle against pursuing forces of the Crimson King himself - the treacherous daemon primarch Magnus the Red. And it was just as primarch and his forces were about to be overwhelmed that tribune Felis Silvestris Juvenilis led Talons of the Emperor - fighting together for the first time in living memory - to the aid of the Avenging Son. His malignant spells weakend, and his body cut by Guardian Spear and Executioner Blade, the treacherous primarch was driven back and his warriors slain, with tribune himself cutting off three feathers from the wing of the daemon, which he now bears upon his armour as a reminder that no foe, however great, can step within the system Solar.

Thus the life of the primarch was saved, and through that, the defenders of the Lion’s Gate relieved, legions of Khorne crushed, and foundation laid for the beginning of the Era Indomitus itself.

At the time of this record’s creation tribune Felis is thought to be primarily operating on Terra, assisting with continuing restoration of the Anathema Psykana and representing Adeptus Custodes within Senatorum Imperialis in Captain-General’s absence. A singular navigational record, however, documents his visit to Nocturne for an unknown purpose, while another report speaks of him leading an embassy to the Fabricator-General of Mars…”

I dunno, it looks pretty obvious to me, that Splinter took good care of the turtles when they were little. And when they grew older and less depended on him, the depression took a hold of him, so Raph stepped up as the bigger older brother.

Coriolis is a young light-skinned woman with a round, flushed face and a curly pink bob with bangs. She has wings with pale gold and pink plumage, and a matching pair growing from her head, with a gold halo above them. She wears a pale blue zip-up flight suit with shoulder cutouts. She looks at the viewer with large, sparkling eyes and a winsome smile. [END ID]

he doesn't look when the door opens. something he's been trying to train out of, actually, with the titans. while (some) of them haven't blatantly said it . . . dick knows he can be . . . HIGH STRUNG. sometimes. that he can make mountains out of mole hills or any of the twenty other sayings alfred sometimes says. BUT HE RECOGNIZES THAT. files it away like he would any other training feedback. tries, fails, and then tries again to be better with every stuttering step. it's @roysenal. speedy. roy harper. he knows because he can't (and won't) ever be the kind of person who can just turn on and off that bat vigilance, but he'd like to think it's a testament to his willpower that he's not obsessing over it like usual. dick doesn't turn from the screen when he says " wonder girl, aqualad and bumblebee are in the training center. " dick ( ROBIN, here. only robin.) trained earlier this morning, and he was . . . expecting a call from his mentor any minute now after their most recent mission. robin's masked eyes move to roy then. assessing a bit at the trailing thought of mentor's. " and uh, flash picked up kf a little earlier. " so it was just them. something about that scratched at dick. poked him like there was some deeper meaning he was meant to understand. analyze, like his mentor might. and instead, dick feels a bit childish when all he can focus on is W H Y kf left. something about the combination causes dick to continue, with a carefully neutral tone. " flash said he wanted to take wally out for 'victory snacks'. said he deserved it after a job well done. "

On asking Chat GPT the difference between water management and sanitation between the America and Europe:

While it's true that many Indigenous cultures in the Americas had sophisticated systems for water management and sanitation, it's important to note that these systems were often region-specific and may not have been applicable or feasible in other regions. Additionally, Europeans had a different set of cultural and technological priorities when it came to urban planning and infrastructure development.

In many European cities, the focus was on building large cathedrals, fortifications, and other monumental structures, rather than investing in extensive water supply and sanitation systems. The lack of clean water and sanitation infrastructure in European cities contributed to the spread of disease and poor hygiene practices.

Furthermore, the loss of knowledge and expertise in engineering and infrastructure development after the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 CE also contributed to the lack of running water in Europe during the medieval period. While some water systems were developed in certain European cities during the Middle Ages, they were often limited in scope and did not reach the wider population.

Overall, the reasons for the lack of running water in Europe during the medieval period are complex and multifaceted, and cannot be solely attributed to climate or cultural differences.

"Fun fact: I did a totally different design but changed it and had to go back on every page Vesperia showed up to fix it TT^TT"

May we see how the original design looked like? If that's ok with u.

On the left was the original redesign. I generally like Vesperia's canon design, I just think it's OVER design, thus why originally I just got rid of some of the striping. But ultimately the jumpsuit look just bored me so I instead went a Romper route. I did bring back the leg stripes but joined them together to form the "V" shape for Vesperia.

Back in the Day (ie May 2022) I did this^ spread to try a few things out.

did someone say profess my love for an organism? I love mantis shrimp. and I think they're super underrated despite how popular they are, because no one ever gets why they're so cool! did you know that the mantis shrimp can actually see less colors than humans? this is because they process the information directly in their eyes, so they can't see colors like magenta (which only exist because our brain processes them like that).

you know what they CAN see though? cancer. see, mantis shrimp can see polarized light and thus, the way light waves reflect off surfaces. and healthy cells reflect light differently than cancer cells! this means they can detect cancer years before symptoms appear, and scientists are perfecting a camera that mimics this ability so cancer can be detected and removed with precision! mantis shrimp could literally save lives!!

and their punches. ohhh their punches. mantis shrimp come in two kinds, spearers and crushers. crushers can deliver a punch with the acceleration up to 51mph in an INSTANT, with a force of 15,000 newtons. but what's really cool is the cavitation bubbles. see, the punch moves so fast it creates a little pocket of air, and when that bubble pops it creates IMMENSE pressure and heat. the us navy used a similar effect in pistol shrimp to their advantage in world war 2, positioning submarines inside colonies of pistol shrimp as acoustic cover, because the powerful force would disrupt sonar.

there's SO many cool things about the mantis shrimp that I didn't even touch on, please go learn about these amazing animals for yourself!

sorry if this is a very idiotic question but how is the existence of private firms in China not antithetical to it being a socialist state. this is seriously in good faith I'm genuinely curious TT

This is a pretty common question, not just when it comes to China, but also to most socialist states, including the USSR at the time.

in short, the transformation of a country's mode of production takes a very long time. The development and maturation of capitalism took hundreds of years and had many stages: mercantilism, primitive accumulation, national competition, global expansion, and finally, imperialism (the highest stage of capitalism). Socialism will also take a long time to mature. Socialism is not a checklist of haves and have nots. Socialism isn't when collectives or cooperatives. Socialism isn't when no billionaires. Socialism most definitely is not when government does stuff or taxes on rich people.

The transition to socialism requires the development of productive forces. The goal of Reform and Opening Up (改革开放, GGKF) was to build up the productive forces which China lacked at the time. While China had a solid heavy industrial and agricultural base, it lacked in other areas. Additionally, thanks to the Sino-Soviet split, China was left largely isolated without much foreign trade. GGKF achieves this by opening the Chinese market to foreign capitalist investment. These foreign investors pour money into China to build factories, ports, infrastructure, assembly plants, etc., etc., in order to take advantage of cheap Chinese labor. The upside of this policy is the rapid accumulation of productive forces. The downside is intensifying internal contradictions (and if you ask my grandpa, the worst thing GGKF did was introducing liberals to China). Billionaires are a symptom of these intensifying internal contradictions.

China is in a nascent, primitive form of socialism: it has a dictatorship of the proletariat lead by a proletarian party. The party derives its power from the people (who make up the vast vast majority of the party). Between 2003 and 2011, the PRC executed 14 billionaires. The anti-corruption campaign also continues to rack up billionaire heads. Corrupt officials who get extremely wealthy from bribes, too, get executed. When Jack Ma tried to step out of line, his company was seized and broken up (ANT group). The state consistently puts its boots on the necks of the bourgeoisie. At the same time, Chinese worker safety, labor rights, wages, overtime, state intervention, etc. are increasing. This stands in contrast to the dictatorships of the bourgeoisie in the west, most notably america. In the usa, the billionaires control the state and thus can get away with anything they want, and not a single one will face tangible punishment, let alone get executed.

As geopolitics shift, material conditions improve, and internal contradictions are resolved, GGKF will be rolled back as China progresses on its construction of socialism. This is beginning to happen. Since the international bourgeoisie have finally realized that China never intended to liberalize and is still, in fact, a socialist state, The DOTBs that they run are working day and night to slander, sanction, and vilify the PRC. The international institutions, which China had to join in order to effect GGKF, will slowly turn against China, using any excuse to try and squeeze them. But it is largely too late. Using the fruits of GGKF, China has eliminated extreme poverty entirely, resolving one internal contradiction. Its productive forces are good enough that it can begin to carry itself without much western IP and capital. I expect the PRC to further crack down on the excesses of GGKF; indeed, several markets have been entirely eliminated via nationalization already.

Here's some nice trivia! mcdicks in China is 50% state owned and its workforce is entirely unionized! Cool huh? In exchange for access to China's massive market, in their never-ending pursuit for higher and higher profit, the bourgeoisie is willing to partially fund the largest currently-existing socialist state. "The capitalists will sell us the rope", as is often said.

Red Sails wrote a great article addressing this question, if you'd like to give it a read.

flutters eyelashes do u know that asking people especially trans women why there is discourse (implying people have told people to kill themselves about it because this is the internet) why roxy is a trans woman might be an exhausting thing to ask?

quick reasoning: the pesterchum initials are references to chromosomes with GT->EB, TT (dirk), and TG (roxy) implying transness (hussie has discussed junes handles in this manner). when the last two letters of roxy’s name was being revealed, they were referenced as chromosomal letters. roxy’s pink theme and her defeating HIC. it was a widely accepted hc pre epilogues, so when roxy comes out as trans masc, people r like?????

whats the issue as long as rox is trans? well the issue is that theres context to that move. jade’s body being seen as a joke is a fuckin HUGE one. callie another trans girl comes out as nonbinary? which is? ?? its explained as callie felt like they were forced to identify as a girl to be the opposite of calliborn. calliope the humanity and troll culture weeb. its hard to feel like this was anything but a “theyre an alien thus they must be nonbinary”.

eventually even with all the explanation, people would say “ok? its not that deep? its not like i’m hurting anyone.” and the answer to that is i fucking guess?? i fuckin GUESS. and then rinse and repeat. do u get why its exhausting now.
