Headcanon that Skrall as a species are essentially doomed on Spherus Magna.
Even though they are warriors of the highest caliber, 100,000 years of war, starvation, and the loss of every female of their species leads to a slow, inevitable decline.
Ruthlessly culling any member of their species that wasn't a high-class warrior meant that there was no investment in education or skilled labor. The only way their society functioned was to rely on pillaging and slave labor to obtain food, medicine, and essentially everything that didn't involve stabbing.
Given their very rigid social system, it didn't seem like female Skrall had much say or power in their society. On Bara Manga, the second they did get mental powers they were considered a threat and banished to the wilds. Canonically, the male and female Skrall also separated into two societies on Bota Manga.
After that point, the population replacement rate was 0 and the male Skrall were in an endless war with the Agori for resources. While they never really lost fights, that didn't mean that they weren't losing people to disease, injury, and old age.
And then Mata Nui came along and curb-stomped the only leader-cast member of their species they had left. The remaining male Skrall dispersed into smaller groups led by named Skrall or high-tier casts.
And then Teridax came along.
A huge portion of their remaining population was atomized when Teridax blasted their home in the Black Spike Mountains. The remaining groups decided to join the free-for-all fight between the Agori, Toa, Rahkshi, and Skakdi.
And even as amazing warriors in a normal fight, there's no way the Skrall did anything but get their shit kicked in against armies of beings with ranged supernatural powers. A sword is great, but not much use when all your opponents can do things like suck the oxygen from your lungs, or summon a mountant to crush you without breaking a sweat.
Plus, every Agori and Glatorian hates their guts and wouldn't hesitate to gut any Skrull injured or trapped by the absolute free-for-all that was Bara Magna.
Anyone who survived the bloodbath and subsequent reformation of Spherus Magna, including adding Bota Magna Skrull to their ranks, is still looking at a very grim future.
The Skrall are now outclassed by almost every sentient species (and most wildlife) on the planet in terms of power and resources. Their home and leader cast are gone, and they have no slaves left (all killed or emancipated by Toa) to produce goods or labor. Their species is still split into two societies by gender and getting together long enough to have kids probably isn't in the cards.
A few Skrall are hired on by the Dark Hunters, but given their lack of powers, they would be best as cannon fodder, or as combat trainers to beings with greater powers.
Every other remaining male Skrall group is going to have their shit kicked in by every other group the second they try to cause trouble. And the Baterra are probably still picking off warriors whenever and wherever they find them.
Their population has plummeted over the last 100,000 years and the remaining members of the species are essentially the last generation.
The best hope their species has is that the female Skrall, being less militant and having no mental powers left, join with Agori or Glatorian society. They might be closely related enough that they can have children with the Glatorian or Agori.
If so, any future Skrall are at most 50-50 genetically split with another species. Subsequent generations will have thinner and thinner Skrall genetics, and they'll be extinct as an individual species.
Given that they were absolute bastards as a species and society in-canon, that might be for the best. Banishing every member of your society that can have children, and then going to endless war with every one of your neighbors forever is essentially biological suicide.

Her Mask
Her sweet words make them happy,
Her kind heart gives them hope,
Her optimism keeps them going,
And not stumble into a spiralling hole.
They think she is an angel sent from heaven,
To cure their ailing heart,
They think she is perfect, flawless,
To keep them from falling apart.
But she is just a girl behind a mask,
Who keeps her pains and sorrows hidden,
Who wants someone to notice and ask,
But doesn't want to burden anyone with her heartbreak.
She doesn't want to show her weakness,
Even though she is hanging by a thread,
Because she was told,
It's not that deep,
Get over it,
Now she doesn't speak.
She is gentle, so they don't know what it feels like to be wearing a mask,
But waiting that someone might just notice and ask.
-Ash

I don’t remember if Morgana looking like a cat was Igor’s doing or was the collective conscious thing but if it was the collective conscious there’s something really cute and real about the embodiment of humanity’s hope being shaped like a cat

I feel like there is a strong correlation to Frank Hubert’s initial subtext with Dune (its islamic religious themes, a premise setting an empire against local populaces, the attention towards ecological developments in desert environments with a bias towards temperate zones from outsiders wanting to “enrich” the land), and all of the recent developments in Gaza and its history, both with the original influences to Hubert’s novel and the timing of a blockbuster adaptation happening while international focus grows towards Palestine, that is going unmentioned outside of the usual jokes and memes

Dumb Dead Poets Headcanons:
- Charlie doesn’t know his left from his right, this was only made worse by marching band where directions are from the director’s (opposite) perspective (Charlie is such a band kid, he belongs in marching band)
- Neil is related to Steve Perry (lead singer of Journey) in a complicated second/third cousin twice removed kinda way. His family was never in contact with him, it’s just an odd thing they brag about a lot
- Meeks was a semi-popular Viner, not super big but he had at least one viral video that ended up in every vine compilation on YouTube
-Todd refuses to use big spoons, the only explanation he gives is that “the vibes are off” (Neil only uses big spoons in order to save the “good” ones for Todd. Todd does not know this reasoning and is horrified every time he sees it)
-Knox never zips up his coat, no matter how cold it gets. There’s no reason, he just doesn’t
-Pitts has a secret love of country music, only Meeks knows (they scream/sing along to Carrie Underwood together)
-Cameron’s first word was “taxes”

Resume writing is like: horseshit, bullcrap, nonsense, something describing what I do in a way no human would ever speak or write or want to read, drivel, filler, more shit

hey wait we’ve never seen an elf with a tattoo. what the hell man. why aren’t we doing anything about this
actually upon further thought Shannon has somehow made an entire cast of people who would not get tattoos. how would practically no one want cool body art this sucks
upon even further thought tattoo apathy is endemic to their entire world, what the hell man that sucks. a world built without cool body art people in a world that values beauty and art…what are we doing…
