I wanna share with you guys part of my motivation to study urban design i forgot about until 3 minutes ago

(in response to a project with community opposition prompt):

'Toondah Harbour in Cleveland, Queensland is one I immediately think of. It is a private development so I'm not sure that it counts, but the ferry terminal to Minjerrbah needed an upgrade and the Walker Company (I believe) has taken the reins, and plans on making several apartment buildings and a water park in a very out of the way area of the Redland Coast that's poorly serviced by roads and public transport. To do this involves a lot of dredging of a RAMSAR wetland known to host endangered migratory species such as the Eastern Curlew, and the disturbance (damage and rebuilding) of prime koala habitat. Residents are mostly against it or they don't know what it is, and it's been taken to statewide and national debates as to whether this is legal (from an environmental law perspective, it's not). However, it is true that the ferry terminal desperately needs an upgrade, and in my opinion, a public transport link and some strategically placed ecotourism sites. Part of the reason I'm studying urban design is that I want to pitch an alternative proposal with the community behind me that may be implemented by the government.'

#GUYS WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY MEMORY #the stress is making me. forget entire things i hope to do #and like. this dream is getting closer and the current idea is still illegal so. they haven't started building it. there is time. hope #silver studies urban design #urban design #urban planning #toondah harbour #we need international outrage about this #and international support for my alternative proposal #ramsarconvention #silver bridges

Rereading Ignite Me rn and going to say this Juliette tortured by boi Aaron Warner- like love my girlie Juliette but she decided to work on her attraction with Aaron even before processing her grief over Adam's potential death. And it was like she forgot Adam existed and the only reason she was reminded of him was cuz Aaron "jealous of Kent cuz he did charity" Warner decided to mention him in a conversation as he continued to emotionally tortured by Juliette. The slow burn was so good to read however but yes Aaron deserves less heartbreak from Juliette. periodt.

#Ik she was dealing with a lot of things and this is same guy she harboured immense deep rooted hatred for #Trauma and lack of memories also fueled the slow burn #And keeping that in mind she continued to toy with his feelings and he let her do it #That was not nice of her as she asked him questions that specifically could be answered with he did it cuz he loves her #And she exploited it to some extend as but that is not what I'm going to talk about today #warnette #ignite me #shatter me #tahereh mafi #juliette ferrars #aaron warner

Some memories from the phenomenal Scotland trip we went on last year, which we began travelling to a year ago tomorrow. I don't know where that year has gone! What a fantastic and wild time it was. The photos in this set are a mixture of some I still hadn't got around to processing and did so this evening and some key ones from the trip that I processed at the time, each bringing back fond memories. The photos are of; Corn Bunting at Banff in Aberdeenshire, view at Findhorn Bay and Long-tailed Duck at Burghead Harbour one of the birds of the trip both in Moray, another of the star species of the trip and one of the main ones we wanted to see Otter at Dervaig on Mull, a view on the Aberdeenshire coast, Lapwing at Lochindorb, Black Guillemot on Loch Eil and view on Mull.

changing the leviathan story's premise from a secret project to a vanity project being suborned has revealed a lot more fun stuff! like the anxiety of a dealing with societal indifference to looming crisis, the tensions of a new form of technology replacing an older one, there being a fundamental problem with the world that seems insurmountable...

just. hm. that's all pretty topical, huh

#the leviathan story #not to even get into this huge project being a culmination of time and effort and experience and memories... #but only to repurpose and desecrate a corpse and make it paddle around a harbour for cool factor

Hi! I have many things to tell you! That snippet of James and Sirius "you'll always have me." "That'll never happen." I'm gonna make it sad and tell you about how I thought of Sirius thinking or screaming this at James when he dies 'You promised!' (or we can gladly pretend that James doesn't die, that works very well for me) Then your 'babe' with Harry and Sirius that's so sweet and I love it. I recently read a fic where it used 'babe' casually too, in a 'sure/okay babe' way and I have fallen in love. Then I have this thought from another fic where Sirius does this calming gesture of running his thumb or finger from the bridge of Harry's nose around to his cheek and it was just such a sweet gesture that I had to gush about it to somebody you would get it! Cause Sirius would totally do this, anytime Harry needed calming or safety or more love. It would be so soft. Thanks for writing what write!!

the paper bag has made yet another return today.

no but this is so sweet 🥺😭 thank u sm for reading and liking and sharing this!!! it means the world to me 💜 (edit: just saw that ur fOGYYdREAM? i love ur comments on my fics so much!!!! 😳)

ahhh the babe thing was and will always be @greyeyedmonster-18 that i absorbed into my stuff through osmosis (i’m trying to extend that to her other skills…like writing and causing emotional damage too but shh)

ok no but ur onto something there w the angst?? i can’t imagine him screaming it at james’ dead body bc he’ll probably go into numb shock in the moment but azkaban is ripe for such things. i’m thinking around his bday (bc poor baby was literally in prison on the day of) bc it hasn’t been long enough for the psych torture to really start, the memories are still fresh and stinging, and he wakes up - forgetting for a second - expecting james to bounce on his bed and wake him up with a massive smile on his face. when that doesn’t happen, well. that’s really what breaks him in those early days bc it just cements the fact that his jamie isn’t there anymore and that’s when you have him moving to like, screaming into the ceiling sort of anger. just ‘you promised you’ll always be there. i told you, i told you this would happen but no, james fucking potter is never wrong, is he? said he’ll always be there. well. where are you now, you bastard? huh?’ until his voice gives out and his throat is sore but the emptiness in his chest hasn’t lessened.

so, uh. yeah. that. (did u purposefully put the fluff after the angst as balm? bc smart) the rubbing a finger across his face thing is so cute oh my god pls. idk if anyone’s noticed but i like habits that pass down generations a lot lot (and i hc that james taught sirius most everything about love & affection and open displays of them, along with the potters being a loving bunch) so now i’m imagining james subconsciously doing that for sirius as a tangible way to sense him, know he’s there, bring him back to j when he’s lost in his thoughts—anything. and sirius picked up on that and does it to harry (also a fan of sirius passing on family traditions james didn’t get a chance to. the burden i put on this poor man lol) because he is all about that love & reassurance 🥺

pls dont ever hesitate in dropping by if u see something cute (or sad? 🤔) again, i love it sm!!! we all deserve more h&s fluff in our lives <3

#sirius black #james potter #i just think. sirius’ grief over james isn’t fully explored nor is it always shown #and there’s so much of it #so i love it when it’s referenced #i’m also a huge fan of others (esp harry) finding out about how close these two were via this unending mourning period #like there’s just a part of sirius that died that day and he’s fundamentally diffferent #references from those who knew him before or pictures/memories or anecdotes #just this different ykno? #& him screaming in azkaban would be something he’s so ashamed of. bc he’s never been mad at james that way- didn’t even know it was possible #but it’s still something that happened and a little bit of resentment he harbours (more @ the universe than j but still) #by god these two will be the death of me #we have a lot of good food today #and it’s only morning #thank u for this i was actually having a bad day yesterday #but talking about these boys never fails to cheer me up heh #ppb #pen’s asks

Really just here at 3:30am thinking about how important familiar landscapes are to people

#they are part of us! #and we part of them #they belong to us in the shape of our memories #and our memories belong to them! #the land is in our bones and we are shaped by our landscape #just as much as we shape the land around us! #time is non existent and the land is allways there #ever changing and simultaneously exactly the same #im crying over how much love i have for the spaces we know and the spaces that know us #be afraid of the land for it knows more than we ever will but know our memories and experiences are harboured within its embrace #i just fuckin filled with love #b's ramblings

every time i think i'm immune to parasocial disappointment, i get proven wrong.

#it's like i've built up an immune response to this disease so i don't get it as bad but i still get it #and i get over it faster. metaphorical memory T cells. but there's still something to get over. #this isn't about anyone in particular and honestly not even Anything in particular #like obviously there is the Major issue at hand but. i'm a leftist. i've been a leftist for a while. #and uh. you get used to disappointment around these parts #being a leftist is squaring that humanity is good and worth fighting for. and that deep down most people have a lot of goodness #with the knowledge that most people are so deeply misguided. many capable of horrific things and most capable of looking away #with the knowledge that most people harbour prejudice. many outright hatred. #with the knowledge that we live in a system that keeps people from caring not as a bug but as a feature. #a system that exhausts and isolates and lies as a feature #all this has to live in your head at the same time. you stop being surprised quickly. you still get disappointed.

I've been weighing this for a while and I've finally settled on a reading of Crowley's big revelation in 2x05 that makes sense to me. It's my best guess at what's going on in his head, accounting for the conversation that leads up to this moment, and the conversations that follow.

Full disclosure, I don't have much evidence to discount the possibility that this is Crowley realising how he feels about Aziraphale, except that I think the overarching narrative of Good Omens holds together better if he already knew. I do think my interpretation is stronger in context, though.

Let's review, then: Crowley and Nina have a conversation in which Nina assumes Crowley and Aziraphale are a couple, Crowley denies it, and Nina refuses to believe him. She pries into the reasons he might be lying and finishes up by saying, "Other people's love lives always seem so much more straightforward than our own." Crowley walks off looking like he's been hit by a truck.

In his next scene, Crowley is getting day drunk at the French restaurant across from the bookshop. He invites Aziraphale to drink with him, which Aziraphale declines. Crowley quickly starts brooding about the archangel they're hiding in the bookshop. "I spent last night worrying if he's going to wake up. What if he remembers who he is? What if he's faking it?"

I think there's a clear and direct line from conversation A to conversation B. Crowley realises that everyone can see he and Aziraphale are in love. Crowley panics about Gabriel regaining his memories. Rather than a revelation of feelings, I think this was a revelation of danger. Crowley and Aziraphale have survived through secrecy and deception, and it's hitting Crowley that their performance is slipping, under what could be the most intense scrutiny they've ever faced.

This could be a factor in Crowley's subsequent confrontation of Gabriel. I agree with @baggvinshield that pushing Gabriel to jump out the window was a test, but I also think that behind the calculating strategy is scared animal instinct. Gabriel is a threat that it would be safest to just eliminate. Crowley needs to be really fucking sure about him.

It makes sense if the conversation with Nina is what triggers Crowley's fears to resurface, because Crowley's just spent almost a full day alone with Gabriel and he wasn't on high alert the whole time. He let his guard down a little when discussing gravity and while summoning the rainstorm for Maggie and Nina. He was pretty keen to get out of there when Aziraphale got back, but he also sounded fairly relaxed when asked about Gabriel. I think in that moment he's more unsettled by Shax lurking around and the consequences of harbouring a fugitive than afraid of Gabriel himself.

I think Crowley's revelation reads like a romantic "oh" because that's what we're primed to expect. It's a common trope, right? Someone accuses the romantic leads of acting like a couple and they realise it's true. But I think that Crowley's jump to fretting about Gabriel makes more sense if he's realising how obvious their feelings are than if he's only just realising what they mean.

Coincidental Smiles and Hard Working Humour

How the Yan Genshin boys react to a genuine laugh from you and try to dig for more

Characters included: Childe, Diluc, Zhongli, alhaitham, Pantalone

------

Childe: Going to the kitchen first thing after waking up and seeing him half covered in flour with his hair ruffled up like he just got hit by electro did wonders on your brain. The sight of him disheveled and disorderly had made you chuckle, the bubbles of laughter slowly turning into giggles. Childe watches you with eyes as wide as saucers as he remains frozen where he stands, saucepan in hand. The sound of your laughter echoes in the kitchen, and you briefly clutch your stomach during your unguarded moment. Watching you pour out such joyous sounds makes Childe's brain hyperactive and he tries his best to get into circumstances similar to that. He messes up his shirt's buttons and goes to you, asking you to fix them for him. He purposely lets his hair dry all weird so that you could see how funny it looks. He even goes to the length to make up some puns in his head, but that horribly backfires when you mockingly gag. Childe tries his absolute best to make you laugh again all the while going to sleep with the memory of that heavenly sound replaying in his head over and over again.

Diluc: Dawn Winery is no stranger to nature. There's crystalflies, grapes, carrots, potatoes, the occasional boars and your favourite, the resident cats. Having recently befriended a mother and her three kittens, you often sneak out to the vineyard to find them. Diluc is obviously aware of the little rendezvous that frequently occurs but takes no action since, well, you come back inside out of fear anyway. Plus, the staff in the vicinity always keeps a close eye and Diluc himself, when at home, watches. So when he hears you giggle from around the corner as he hides in the shadow of the estate wall, he is enchanted. Not because he's never heard you laugh before, no no. It's because of how genuine it is. He peaks out of curiosity and sees three kittens climbing on top of you with different angles all the while one licks your cheek. More sounds of laughter from you put Diluc in a kind of spell, and he finds himself slowly taking steps towards you. Naturally, blood drains from your face when you see him towering over you. Diluc feels guilty when you go as silent as a mouse, but ends up bringing the cats inside to dig up more smiles from you. Can't say competing with them for your attention was easy but hey, it's a small price to pay.

Zhongli: The harbour is bustling with business during the evening hours. Working people leaving for home and grabbing necessities on the way back and children playing by the docks during the rush hours just to hurry back home when it gets dark. While the ex archon thought you would be interested in shopping, it seemed that the youngsters of Liyue Harbour had been your point of interest all along. You had slipped away when he was analysing which hairstick would suit you better, and though Zhongli would usually be worried, he is aware that there's no place you may run off to. Thus, him being perfectly fine with you roaming about. However, had Zhongli known that you would be engaging the children in different games with so much laughter and joy, he would have let you go sooner. As he stood there, watching with a smile, only one thought crossed his mind. Perhaps you would display the same joy if you had children of your own, right?

Alhaitham: The Akademiya can be... ruthless, even for the feeble scholar. The other day, alhaitham, absolutely sleep deprived, had fallen asleep while drinking his morning coffee and while he would have thought that you'd leave him be, you actually took the mug from his hand and placed it on the counter to avoid any spills. Alhaitham's lack of sleep haunted him for a few more days and on one fine morning had fallen asleep while doing paperwork. Being someone who avoids his attentive stare in the mornings, it had been a few hours later that you had exited the bedroom for breakfast. It would certainly not be an exaggeration to claim that seeing the acting grand sage sleeping on the sofa with his coffee mug empty and the beverage spilled onto the floor is in any way, shape or form reassuring for Sumeru's future. However, catching sight of the little amount of drool spilling from his lips had caused you to erupt into a fit of giggles, waking up the sleeping man. Maybe you should atone for your transgression with offering yourself as a pillow.

Pantalone: The Regrator's job is a stressful one. There are idiots of all types present everywhere and are far too much of a nuisance. Pantalone had summoned you into his home office in an attempt to catch a well deserved break from being hunched over paperwork, but when you had walked in, he didn't even so much as look up from his desk, scowling at the papers haphazardly scattered about. Having to witness such a stoic and composed man scowling and glaring at papers all the while muttering something about 'buffoons' and 'imbeciles' had made you stop in your tracks, suppressing a smile. It was when he had made a disgusted face before grabbing an abacus that you couldn't hold in a chuckle. The sound morphs into laughter, and Pantalone freezes on the spot, head slowly rising to look at you. Seems like today is a blessed day.
