Hey teenagers.

You aren't slick. We adults know you look at our smut. We know no amount of minors DNI is gonna stop you from looking at our smut. We were teenagers once too, you know?

But please. Don't interact with people about sexual things online. Reading somebodies adult fic is fine. I don't like it, but you're gonna do it. Commenting on that smutfic, or joining a discord server for it, puts everyone in a really dangerous situation. Thats an entirely different level of risk. Not even with people your own age, since you can never know for sure.

Just a reminder for people who may not know, in light of protestors at UCLA being shot in the face with rubber bullets— rubber bullets are not bullets made of rubber. They are metal bullets encased in rubber.

Despite being called “non-lethal” or sometimes “less lethal”, they are well known to cause death and permanent disability.

Here’s a photo showing their size— these are actual rubber bullets used during the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020.

A photo showing three large rubber bullets lying in a human hand. The smallest spans the length of four fingers, the largest spans from thumb to pinky across the palm.

Do not let them downplay the severity of what they are subjecting this students to for standing against genocide. Stay safe and stay educated.

EDIT: Twitter banned @/nosferatusexgod, the student shot, whose tweet I linked to (as a primary source) at the top of the post. Screenshots of the tweet I originally linked to can be found here.

my take on shipping aromantic characters is that if you're aro you get to do whatever you want and if you're not you have to write me a three page essay 12 pt font times new roman double spaced explaining in detail why you believe entering a romantic relationship would be an interesting and worthwhile storyline for the character and how you believe their aromanticism would affect the way they experience said relationship

"A Child’s View from Gaza" was an art exhibition showcasing drawings created by the children of Gaza.

"The captioned illustrations were created by Palestinian children who lived through the Israeli bombardment of Gaza in 2008-09. The pictures were drawn as part of an effort to help children deal with the horrors they had experienced. A Bay Area nonprofit, Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA), arranged to display a collection of these pictures at the Museum of Children’s Art in Oakland, California. However, under pressure from the Jewish Federation of the East Bay and other organizations, the museum backed out of the agreement at the last minute."

Redesigns of Alicorns, in the drawings below there will be detailed description to each pony!

For now i will explain my thought process while making alicorns!

Alicorns that were a unicorn before turning into them still have their iconic unicorn folklore tail, their ears are also fluffier but turned to the back after a while, they look more like feathers. Their horns get bigger or get a more specific shape, but it doesn't happen immiedately

Alicorns that were pegasi: On their hoofs there are small wings, they also get another pair of wings that are small at first but get bigger and bigger over time (so kinda like a seraphim angel) their horn isn't as big though

Alicorns that were earthponies: Their wings and horn aren't the biggest and are usually very round, but they're the strongest out of all alicorns

The end of alt text, go to the next image!

Redesigned Celestia is an alicorn that was once a unicorn, with white coat with pale yellow marks on her face and horn that look like rays of light. Her horn is curved having spikes that looks like a sun. Celestia's legs are fluffy but flowing with magic (the same with her hair like in the show), showing off her shiny cyan hoofs.
She has gold eyes matching her armor and crown (that also look like rays of sun), covering chest and legs.
Celestia's hair is long and flowing like in the show, with mixed colours streaks of hair involving pink, peach orange, greeny cyan and yellow
Her cutie mark is a big yellow sun

Redesigned Luna is a pure an alicorn that was once a unicorn, with dark coat that in some places turns complete black where you can see little sparkles.
Her horn is white and curved resembling a moon, the same with a circular mark on her forehead. Luna's legs similar to Celestia's are also fluffy and flow with magic showing off her pale, shiny indigo hoofs. Her hair is the same shade as her hoofs, it also shines and is very short unlike her sister, reaching the half of her neck, underneath the blue you can see streaks of white hair.
She wears silver armor the same colour as her eyes, covering her chest and legs, and her crown looks like a moon.
Her cutie mark is also a moon.

Redesigned Cadence is an Alicorn that was once a pegasi, she looks way more giddy and giggly than the rest of alicorns.
Her coat is pastel pink, white mark on her forehead lookslike heart (the same with her ears that look like that) she also icy pale blue eyes. Cadence's hair is a darker colder shade of pink with pale yellow streaks and also wavy! Her legs are round and aerodynamic and have little wings attached to them with white heartshaped hoofs.
She has two pairs of wings, one before she got alicorned (pink and smaller) and second one that are blueish white and are giant.
She wears icyblue chest armor that has snowflake like pattern and a crown that looks like icespikes.
Her cutie mark is a pale blue heart with a smaller pink heart in the middle, that is inside a snowflake.
She's snowflake themed because i changed her to be instead a Princess of Winter, she takes care of Winter kingdom because her love magic prevents it from dying, the same with the heart of Equestria, that is located in it (higher stakes teehe)

Redesigned Alicorn Twilight Sparkle is an alicorn, she's slightly darker purple, back legs in the place of cutiemarks are darker purple, on the front of her neck/chest there's a 6-pointed star, just like in her cutiemark.
the same mark is on her face, from the tip of her snout to her medium sized horn.
Her hair is dark indigo with light pink and light indigo long straight streaks, it's also straight with even bangs, with mane pulled back into a messy bun, after her transformation where her hair got longer.
Her wings are small for now compared to other alicorns and they're a darker colour.
The insides of her ears are white, the same with her hoofs.
She wears glasses, and her cutie mark is the same as before but it has a moon on the left as well!

Comparision of Twilight and Twilicorn, Twilicorn has a bun and longer hair while Twilight has a ponytail, Twilicorn is slightly taller and has wings!

second part of my little pony g4 redesigns is done!! i redesigned alicorns!!

This is Rafah, The "safe" zone, where 1.5 million Palestinian fled to. You have to understand, what bombing Rafah means.

Please don't look away, while everybody is busy watching the super bowl, Israel commits one of its most deadly and openly genocidal attacks on Rafah. Please don't look away.

My entire twitter feed is people in Rafah saying they’re terrified, saying their good byes, and asking us to remember them in our prayers. Rafah is facing a massacre. It’s a genocide. We will not know the number of deaths until the morning.

Eyes in Hazbin Hotel

Putting forward a theory on how Sinners' eyes relate to the sins they were condemned for. Now, there's more to a sinner's form than just the eyes (a cannibal's toothy grin, for example), but I'm pretty confident that you can guess the "flavor" of a sinner's crime from the shape and color of their eyes. Also of note is that this doesn't apply to "full demon" forms, just their baseline.

"Normal" Eyes: Sinned Knowingly

Example: Lilith

These are people who know what they were supposed to do and then did something else instead. In Lilith's case, it was God's will to submit to Adam, and she refused (among other things).

No Iris: Sinned Impulsively

Example: Ms. Mayberry

These are people whose greatest sins happened when they weren't thinking clearly. Maybe they were gripped by some delusion or in a fit of uncontrollable rage. They might have even felt bad about it, but by then they were already damned. In this example, Ms. Mayberry killed her husband in a fit of rage after she caught him cheating.

No Pupil: Sinned Uncontrollably

Example: Mimzy

I'll admit, I'm a little uncertain on this one. It's hard to tell if someone has no pupil or just a very large pupil, and there aren't very many examples.

If this is a separate category, these people sinned due to addictions of one kind or another. Unlike those who sinned through pure impulse, they were fully aware that what they were doing was wrong, but they were unable to control themselves.

Blank Eyes: Sinned Callously

Example: Valentino

These are probably among the worst sinners in Hell. They're people for whom morality did not factor into their actions in the slightest. They sinned because they sinned, nothing more, nothing less. It was like breathing to them. There is no light in their eyes. Valentino was a pimp and a serial abuser and absolutely nothing has changed in Hell.

Ringed Eyes: Sinned Madly

Example: Niffty

These people have something else going on entirely. Whether their eyes are a gradient, have sharp dividing lines, or even just concentric circles of the same color, there is something wrong with these people that defies simple categorization.

I would advise against unformatted submissions.

Take the time to put it in a formal report, including dates, times, impact, and supporting evidence.

Dont exaggerate. there's no need. Make sure it is all factual and to the point.

A well written submission goes a lot further.

Duolingo Alternatives by Language

Disclaimer: I haven't used or tested all of them. All resources have different strengths, e.g. Drops being designed for vocabulary. They often aren't full alternatives for Duolingo or formal classes. I just wanted to compile resources for all languages on Duolingo to make the switch easier, especially for the less popular languages.

Feel free to also check out my collection of free textbooks

If you want a more detailed resource list for any of these languages (or perhaps one not listed here) you can send me an ask and I can see what I can do.
