Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
Banded mongoose females love drama. More specifically, they love to cause it; when mating season rolls around, females from one gang will start a fight with another gang. Then, when most of the males are thoroughly engaged, the females will sneak off to mate with any available rival males. Afterwards, they return to their original group, where the unsuspecting males help raise the pups as their own.

Mongooses don’t seem real
What do you mean they’re not extra angry Canadian gooses
That makes no sense

A year or two ago I went through one of my cyclical but short-lived Puella Magi Madoka Magica phases and doodled designs of some of my OCs as magical girls, and I had art block a week or two ago so I rendered them all :3 Yes I did come up with wishes they would have made and how that would influence their magic but I'm not putting all that here because it would be way too long of a post (and also some of them are not super good I just came up with them as a starting point for the designs).
I'm going to start putting IDs in alt text on here, because they seem to work on desktop AND mobile now (thought I'm still not sure how you view them on mobile, they should still work with screen readers). If this becomes an issue for anyone please let me know and I'll start adding them to posts again.
