a short comic i did for my mh vs eah modern day au!!! i havent been drawing lately cuz school and sports are being an attention hog and taking up ALL of my time but i was able to fit this in real quick! i’ll explain the context for the comic more under the cut
note: i gave some of the characters more realistic names cuz lets be real who tf unironically names their kid “draculaura”
blondie (blaine) and draculaura (dafne) have been enemies since the first grade, where they both entered in a spelling bee. they were both oddly good at spelling words. they were like human dictionaries.
however, in the end, blondie didn’t make it. draculaura won the spelling bee and advanced to nationals where she won 2nd place, bested by some kid from minnesota.
after losing the spelling bee, blondie’s mother grew more and more distant from her. the only time she would pay attention to blondie was when she made mistakes (“why can’t you be more like that little girl who won the spelling bee? now she went places.”). blondie grew up believing that losing the spelling bee showed her mother that she wasn’t smart enough, so blondie hit the books and took up sports. she wanted her mom to see that she was just as good as draculaura, maybe even better.
blondie now resents draculaura and the word sesquipedalian.
on the flip side, draculaura basked in the attention she was getting for winning and placing second, at first. her parents were a bit disappointed when she didnt win nationals, but they got over it quick. from then on, draculaura has been praised for her superior intellect and effortless straight A’s. behind the scenes though, the expectation to be the perfect straight A student has been weighing on her shoulders for years. she’s never gone a day 100% stress free. she’s constantly worried about how others view her, intellectually. she worries that others won’t think she’s smart enough to be worthy of all the opportunities she’s been given. her confidence in her intelligence is simply a façade.
draculaura regrets winning the spelling bee and now resents her winning word, ascendancy.
long story short, spelling bee bad.

How long did it took you to cook up the lore? Cause with this much detail I can only imagine you took years
I started writing this story and about its world on Boxing Day 2020. I'd say that the World Lore didn't really truly take off at a gallop until after the first demo came out, which was about June 2021.
Core elements I had in mind from the beginning, the rest has been built on historical and folk lore research over the last year and a bit. I've come to appreciate that good world building gives you more stories to write about.
If you'll all indulge me with an example...
Long Post Below:
The current ruling family are the Berafruth's which in and of itself as a name is a compound of Old English words Bera for Bear and þrȳð which is a commonly used naming prefix and suffix meaning force and strength.
Working on that, I had the thought, 'wouldn't it be cool if in this kingdom all the families that were nominated to the crown had to take on family names that related to animals?'
Turned out yes, yes it would be cool.
I pulled out my trusty Old English dictionaries and got to work selecting the animals that would have commonly been found in the setting, I named fourteen dynasties:
Tumblr media
Being the history nerd that I am, the next question I had to ask myself was, 'Alright, how long did each of these dynasties last?'
Short dynasties imply conflict, long ones stability. Doesn't mean the individual rulers were good or bad on a morality scale, but it can indicate periods of aggressive conflict and turmoil.
Tumblr media
Then, because I just love me a complicated spreadsheet, I constructed a full timeline covering 831 years and went through it year by year, naming the ruler, marking how they came to the throne and how they left it, and also some major legislation I knew I had to slot in at certain points.
Fun little bit of Lore, I've had a few questions about the inclusive nature of the society in the story, one contributing factor to this is that the first ruler of the Oter dynasty was Bora (a nonbinary ish term for a ruler) Eah Oter set the president for egalitarian and equitable leanings. A policy that was challenged only a handful of times in the proceeding 800 odd years.
If you want a relatively quick read of the form of equitable society that I'm trying to model the kingdom's society on, have a look at this article, and this article. Do be cautious about searching for the terms Equity and Egalitarianism, they're the kind of political theory buzzwords that can lead you down some misrepresentative pipelines. If in doubt, always try and look for peer reviewed, cited articles, and avoid those that rely on emotive readings, be they calls to action or hate sinks.

Best Way to Learn Python
Hello fellows, have you ever confused that whether you should learn python or not. Maybe you decided to learn python but didn’t know where to start?
So in this article we’ll guide you about the best way to learn Python.
Why to learn python?
There can be many reasons that can make you start to learn Python. Some of them are as follows:
Easy syntax: Python syntax is very easy to learn than any other programming language out there. If you’re an experienced programmer and new to python you’ll amazed after seeing the easiness of writing code in python. Even if you’re new to programming you can start programming with Python right away.
Readability: In most other programming languages, we use indentation only to help make the code look pretty, but in Python it is required. Whether you’re inside in a loop or declaring some functions you have shift your block of code with certain amount of spaces to indicate what block of code a statement belongs too, which increases readability of a code written in Python.
High level language: Python looks more like a readable, human language than like a low-level  language, which gives you ability to program at faster rate than a low-level language will allow you.
Object oriented programming language: Python’s support for object-oriented programming in one of its greatest benefits to new programmers because they will be encountering the same concepts and terminology in their work but python also support structured programming fully. So you can code in any style you want.
Free and cross-platform: Python is both free and open source. It runs on all major operating systems like Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
Large number of standard libraries: Python contains over than 300 standard library modules which contain modules and classes for a wide variety of programming tasks, which will help us to reduce the length of our code and provide easiness to write code.
Python is everywhere: Yeah you read it right, Python is everywhere. It can be used in server automation. It have several great libraries for building web apps like flask, Django. It is heavily being used in scientific computing, it has several libraries dedicated to specific area in scientific computing like NumPy, SciPy, EarthPy and AstroPy.  Python is also used in Game development using the library PyGame which support sound, mouse and keyboard interaction and more. The popular 3D application Maya supports Python. If you want to develop desktop application, then Python comes up with the tkinter module built-in. The companies like Instagram, Amazon, Spotify, Facebook  and many other using Python language heavily.

What is the Best Way to Learn Python?
Before starting, you’ve to decide that which version of Python you’re going to learn Python 2 or Python 3. To see which one is best to start with please open  https://www.thecrazyprogrammer.com/2018/01/difference-python-2-3.html
But if you’re new to Python then we recommend you to start with Python 3 because it is the future of Python.
Get Everything Ready
Before starting with Python you’ve to make an environment where you can write and execute python scripts. To write scripts we can use any text editor like notepad, vim editor, sublime etc. and in order to run the programs, we can use command prompt or terminal but your system should have Python installed in it. If you’re using a Linux distribution like Ubuntu, Fedora, Kali or you are a mac user then you doesn’t have to install Python externally, because most of the Linux based operating systems comes with Python pre-installed in it.
But if you’re using a PC (windows based) then the process of installing Python 3 will be same as we install any other software. To download the Python 3 visit here https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ and during installation, don’t forget to check the checkbox showing “add python to path”, so you’ll be able to access the Python in command prompt.
However we can also use an IDE where we can write and execute the programs at one place. To check which  IDE you should use, please visit https://www.thecrazyprogrammer.com/2018/03/best-python-ides.html
Python Basics
First of all, we’ll talk about the basics of Python. In basics, the topics you’ve to cover are as follows:

Learn Web Scraping with Python
After searching a lot I found out the best course which can help you to lean web scraping is Web Scraping with Python: BeautifulSoup, Requests & Selenium by Udemy.  None of the youtube playlist can help you this much as this course will do. But this is a paid course and you have to spend some extra money then any other course mentioned above.
Link: https://www.udemy.com/web-scraping-with-python-beautifulsoup/
But again if you’re not willing to spend money then remember you have to practice a lot because without money you’re not gonna learn a lot from youtube playlists.
Here are some of the video links :
Intro to web scrapping with Python and Beautiful Soup: https://youtu.be/XQgXKtPSzUI
Python Tutorial: Web Scraping with BeautifulSoup and Requests – https://youtu.be/ng2o98k983
But still we recommend you to take Udemy paid course.
Learn  Scientific Computing with Python
The best way to learn scientific computing (NumPy, Pandas, Seaborn , Matplotlib , Plotly , Scikit-Learn , Machine Learning, Tensorflow , and more) in Python we recommend you to start with any video tutorials to get the basic idea how things work and then learn each  single module from a standard book. Because in Videos all the methods or properties of a module can’t be covered. That’s why we recommend you to learn with a Book.
Take this course from udemy first-
1. Python for Data Science and Machine Learning Bootcamp: It have 21 hours of lectures and easily explained.
Link: https://www.udemy.com/python-for-data-science-and-machine-learning-bootcamp/
Then purchase this book from amazon or from your nearest book store.
2. Scientific Computing with Python 3: https://www.amazon.in/Scientific-Computing-Python-Claus-Fuhrer/dp/1786463512
Believe me once you have completed the course and mastered each concept mentioned in this book, you can name your self as a data scientist.
I hope this article will help you to find best resource and best way to learn python. If you have any problem or suggestions related with this article then please comment below.
