Not a request, but after the past few posts I wanted to let you know that I saw the Detective Conan 4D / live action show at USJ last week and that was my first official introduction to the series. Seriously considering going down this rabbit hole now.
go forth and enjoy batshit insane detective stories. ignore the fact that theres 1125 chapters this is a normal manga that will definitely end someday
to me his assigned mitski song is real men because real men dont need other people and real men suck it in. real men dont flinch or bleed in public. real men keep cool in the face of a fire, go down with the ship, and real men dont EAT cause theyre ABOVE that damn it!!!!!! im GONNA BE A REAL MANNNN
but really i could make a playlist and a presentation and it still wouldnt feel like enough. maybe because mitski writes always the bridesmaid never the bride songs so we are prone to associate local bridesmaid kevin day to her. but anyway do you ever think of [crack baby you dont know what you want but you know that you had it once and you know that you want it back]

JEWELED CHAMELEON
(Furcifer campani)
This vulnerable species of lizard is one of the most vibrantly colored and beautifully textured reptiles. Agricultural production and bush fires threaten their Madagascan habitat.
Think Like an Artist
"In the initial design stages, we determine how to emphasize the animals' most interesting aspects. The spiraling tail of the chameleon leads the viewer's eye up around the tree limb, through the increasingly dazzling colors of the body, and into the almost hidden recess that houses the eye."
I really want to reread Trial by Journal by Kate Klise (2001), a middle-grade scrapbook novel about a sixth grader who is made to serve as a juror in a sequestered murder trial where the victim is her missing-presumed-dead classmate (because the State of Missouri has passed a law saying that trials for crimes concerning a child victim need to have a child juror), for the following reasons:
As a kid, I was like “okay, sure, obviously that law would probably not be passed but it’s possible.” And now, as an adult and a lawyer, I’m like could you IMAGINE.
The book is whimsical in a lot of ways—almost everyone has punny animal-based names, and there are plot points such as “the heroine befriends a flamboyant reclusive former Old Hollywood star” and “art fraud involving a gorilla”—but the premise is that a child has apparently been murdered and his family/friends/community are devastated, and also that the main suspect is not getting a fair trial because he is desperately poor and mentally disabled. In my memory, Klise pulled it off, but that’s a wild combo.
I’m really interested to see how the current events of the 1990s/very early 2000s influenced the book. Rhett Tyle is obviously kind of pre-politics Trump, right?
This gold charm bracelet that was given as a wedding gift to Catherine by Queen Camilla in 2011.
The chain-link bracelet features a disc charm which has Kate's monogram on one side, and Camilla's on the other. The bracelet was worn by Catherine on a number of occasions in 2011 but since then has yet to be seen again on her.
