Is there any way to play Pokémon coloseum and get the ribbons from it WITHOUT needing to buy the actual console and game from it? I really badly want to do a ribbon challenge but the financial barrier for the ones on this game are way too high
WELLLLLLLL there are ways to (cough) do it with emulation or a hacked wii (COUGH)
if you have a hacked original wii with the gamecube ports on the side, all you would need is to run colo or xd off of nintendont with a USB stick (it's an installable homebrew app), make sure in nintendont's settings the game is set to use the native controllers instead of emulating them, and then purchase a gamecube -> GBA link cable which as far as i know are still pretty cheap, especially third party ones. then you can trade between those games and the GBA games like normal. of course this requires you to uh, go through the process of hacking your wii, which also may require you to buy a cheap ass SD card adapter if you don't have a computer that is able to read old big SD cards. but even if you had to buy a wii for all this i am pretty sure all of those four things combined (wii/cable/adapter/usb) are less of a price barrier than colo/xd which are insanely expensive for no fucking reason my god. for what it's worth i own authentic copies of colo/xd, but even i play it off my wii's nintendont sometimes, it's really convenient LOL
alternatively you could do this fully with PC emulation, just "trade" your pokemon into your colo or xd save with pkhex - you can literally open your colo save and your GBA save in two separate pkhex windows and drag and drop, the pokemon's data will be identical as if you had traded pokemon. if you're starting the challenge on physical gen 3 carts you'll need a way to back up the save files to do this in pkhex though - assuming you already own an original ds or ds lite, the cheapest way to do this is buy a ds flashcart/r4 and install a gba save file manager onto it and use that with the gba slot on the ds. there's also like, specially made devices for that purpose but they're usually a lot more expensive lol. if you do all of this on emulation up to gen 4 or 5 though, you could just use the dns exploit to trade your mons to an actual gen 4/5 cart ez with wifi
sorry for the really long ass answer i just wanted to give you the most options possible. sdfksfdl

A question I get asked a lot while working at a public library is "how do you deal with homeless people?"
And the answer is, we don't.
The unhoused people who come here seeking refuge 99% of the time understand that they will be kicked out if they misbehave.
The people you have to watch out for are Jessica, who only came because the kid she didn't want had to visit for a homework assignment and she just *needs* to yell at her child for asking to borrow two books or stay an extra five minutes, or Michael, who came in to look at porn on our computers for whatever fucking reason, or Karen who just wanted to come by to throw a fit that the particular book she wanted was checked out and harrass our staff about our collection being too limited.
99% of the time, the people we need to ban are middle to upper-middle class white people while the homeless and mentally ill/disabled people mind their own damn business and are honestly some of the best patrons we have.

Happy to report that “a new threat has emerged”. The latest development in the goat saga is that the goat is being eaten alive by birds. This has, according to experts on the news, never happened before.

Phew. This one took, uh… a bit longer than expected due to other projects both irl and art-wise, but it’s finally here. The long-awaited domestic animal infographic! Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough space to cover every single domestic animal (I’m so sorry, reindeer and koi, my beloveds) but I tried to include as many of the “major ones” as possible.
I made this chart in response to a lot of the misunderstandings I hear concerning domestic animals, so I hope it’s helpful!
Further information I didn’t have any room to add or expand on:
🐈 “Breed” and “species” are not synonyms! Breeds are specific to domesticated animals. A Bengal Tiger is a species of tiger. A Siamese is a breed of domestic cat.
🐀 Different colors are also not what makes a breed. A breed is determined by having genetics that are unique to that breed. So a “bluenose pitbull” is not a different breed from a “rednose pitbull”, but an American Pitbull Terrier is a different breed from an American Bully! Animals that have been domesticated for longer tend to have more seperate breeds as these differing genetics have had time to develop.
🐕 It takes hundreds of generations for an animal to become domesticated. While the “domesticated fox experiment” had interesting results, there were not enough generations involved for the foxes to become truly domesticated and their differences from wild foxes were more due to epigenetics (heritable traits that do not change the DNA sequence but rather activate or deactivate parts of it; owed to the specific circumstances of its parents’ behavior and environment.)
🐎 Wild animals that are raised in human care are not domesticated, but they can be considered “tamed.” This means that they still have all their wild instincts, but are less inclined to attack or be frightened of humans. A wild animal that lives in the wild but near human settlements and is less afraid of humans is considered “habituated.” Tamed and habituated animals are not any less dangerous than wild animals, and should still be treated with the same respect. Foxes, otters, raccoons, servals, caracals, bush babies, opossums, owls, monkeys, alligators, and other wild animals can be tamed or habituated, but they have not undergone hundreds of generations of domestication, so they are not domesticated animals.
🐄 Also, as seen above, these animals have all been domesticated for a reason, be it food, transport, pest control, or otherwise, at a time when less practical options existed. There is no benefit to domesticating other species in the modern day, so if you’ve got a hankering for keeping a wild animal as a pet, instead try to find the domestic equivalent of that wild animal! There are several dog breeds that look and behave like wolves or foxes, pigeons and chickens can make great pet birds and have hundreds of colorful fancy breeds, rats can be just as intelligent and social as a small monkey (and less expensive and dangerous to boot,) and ferrets are pretty darn close to minks and otters! There’s no need to keep a wolf in a house when our ancestors have already spent 20,000+ years to make them house-compatible.
🐖 This was stated in the infographic, but I feel like I must again reiterate that domestic animals do not belong in the wild, and often become invasive when feral. Their genetics have been specifically altered in such a way that they depend on humans for optimal health. We are their habitat. This is why you only really see feral pigeons in cities, and feral cats around settlements. They are specifically adapted to live with humans, so they stay even when unwanted. However, this does not mean they should live in a way that doesn’t put their health and comfort as a top priority! If we are their world, it is our duty to make it as good as possible. Please research any pet you get before bringing them home!

I remember someone saying "mad scientists in fiction aren't scientists because there's never a control group"
I think if you've created an elixir that turns people into goat men you have sort have gone past the need for a control group. The control group is not going to placebo themselves into goat men. You can probably not run the control group, and safely assume that none of them would have turned into goat men. That said, having a control group for that would make the mad scientist seem extra crazy and be really really funny, especially if he was carefully testing them for goat like features from the dyed water they drank instead of the elixir
