I'm not mad I'm just disappointed because if you spent two seconds to think about how fur and leather alone has deep ties to human culture and our understanding and appreciation of the natural world it's honestly really beautiful and just feels so strange to me that people who say they love nature want to divorce themselves from it.
Like yes, capitalism bad. I don't agree with the way that animals are treated as products to the point where blatant animal cruelty is excused by mega corporations. I want places like that to be held accountable and made to follow higher welfare standards for the animals they raise and the underpaid employees out there working in sometimes awful and very unsafe conditions.
But if you're simultaneously ignoring the culture of African leathermaking or the beautiful leather and wool textiles crafted by Indigenous artisans or the ways that ancient humans appreciated the animals they killed for meat and clothing by telling stories and making art depicted on the skins of the animals they took, that's what bothers me.
So many people are willing to just attack vulnerable communities instead of learning about thier culture and how animal products were used traditionally and today. There are better ways to raise animals for products sustainably and humanely and many of these communities have spoken very loudly about it but are yelled over by people who just want to be right or don't want to listen or just don't care.
So yes, I will continue to speak my mind and educate myself because if nothing else I wanna be the start of the change I wanna see in the world. I love animals and I love learning the history of humans and our relationships to animals. I want to be able to appreciate them in the ways we always have. With respect to the natural world and understanding that we're also a part of it.

Cleo and Gem are related! Gem never realized this, because while she did hear stories about great-aunt Cleophas, who was weird and had useless skills like leathermaking and decorative woodcarving and knew swear words in protogalactic and ran off with some poet to presumably die, she's never really linked it to ZombieCleo, who is weird and has odd skills like leathermaking and armour stand magic and knows swear words in Zombie and hangs out with an even weirder poet.
Cleo, on the other hand, is not aware she has any niblings, let alone great-niblings.

Considering the "march of technology" in Clan culture and the span of time between Thunder and, say, Briarlight -- is Briarlights mobility device more advanced than we give it credit for or is Thunder's prosthetic, like, incredibly simplistic? Literally a leg-shaped stick? Or is the progression of accessability options over time less of an upward trend? Would knowledge wax and wane depending on the era and how tolerant Clan culture is of the disabled at the time?
Did advanced techniques like weaving, leathermaking, or cooking exist back in BB!DOTC or are they developed over the following decades?
They developed over the ensuring decades, but cooking and leatherwork both come from Tribe culture! When the Sundrown Patrol shacks back up with them in TNP, many generations later, they are actually going to find that Tribal leatherwork is more advanced than Clan leatherworking, and they also cook their food
(Crowfoot smugly glances at Squirrelpaw like "look it's that thing you don't do, wormbelly")
Park Cats don't make tools like this, by the way. They had no need or desire. Before the destruction of the Park, the humans provided everything in terms of trash cans, kibble handouts, so on. Individual groups would fight for landmarks, but resources were more based around food and recreation, not crafting reagents.
There's a point where Thunder Storm ends up making friends with River Ripple, not knowing he's a prince or even speaking the same language, just because he hands him a hot, roasted mouse.
The leg prosthetic is basically a leg-shaped stick with "good leather" by the standards of the time, strapped to his nub. I drew him once without the prosthetic, if you want to see what he's got. There's a teeeeeny weenie bit of leg below the knee.
But anyway yes knowledge waxes and wanes. Wildfur's mobility device was super unique and built on BloodClan contribution, Littlecloud and Cinderpelt had a little adventure going to Chelford for ideas. Briarlight's is SHOCKINGLY advanced and a testament to Jessie's genius, but built on what Cinder and Little had already invented.

[Image ID: The word "Artisans" above a pixel music note.]
Since my Clans have cooking, pottery, and other early society inventions, they need a role responsible for crafting those items. They also need cats who can provide entertainment to their Clan, relieving the pressure of their daily lives with art and beauty. Therefore, we have the artisans. Like caretakers, we can split an artisan's responsibilities into three categories; crafting, trade, and entertainment. RippleClan has yet to find an artisan as of Moon 12, but when they do, they'll take over these tasks.
Artisans: Crafting
Artisans are responsible for crafting the tools and resources used by the Clan. With over a century of culture at their paws and generations of cats developing their skills, artisans are able to make a lot of goods! There are a lot of different crafts out there, but here are some of the most important/interesting:
Weaving: The Clans make twine out of materials like milkweed to craft baskets, which are perfect for storing food, herbs, and various other items.
Pottery: The Clans make frequent use of clay from the Great Northern River and the coastline to craft pottery. Pottery is great for storing liquids and other items too small to keep in baskets. It also allows the Clans to have cookware for various dishes!
Leathermaking: The Clans take the pelts of their prey and make leather out of it. This leather can line den floors, warm nests, or use to cover cats who have lost fur and need extra warmth. These coverings are some of the most complex crafts an artisan can work on. Currently, the Clans are experimenting with more customizable leatherwork, such as sleeves that can be worn over paws to fiddle with fire. Items like bags are some ways off, as baskets tend to do the job well.
Accessories: The Clans can make some accessories that are worn around camp, to Gatherings, or to otherwise boost appearance. Necklaces are the most common accessory (such as the simple twine necklace given to Twinekit upon her death), but tail wraps/bracelets are also popular.
Food: Artisans are the main cats responsible for cooking meals for the Clan using the resources gathered by caretakers. While caretakers tend the fire and large structures used for artisan crafts, artisans are the ones who work with them. This is why Downstar took up artisan tasks when she founded RippleClan, as her caretaker training sometimes crossed with artisan knowledge.
Woodwork: Most of the Clan's woodworking involves carving with twigs, sticks, and branches. The task of bringing down an entire tree is demanding, extremely difficult, and disliked by most cats due to the negative impact a dead tree has on the rest of the forest. As such, the Clans scavenge what wood they can or cut out branches from a tree trunk.
Tool-making: Artisans take stones and sharpen them into tools for their other crafts. A lot of their tools wouldn't be that familiar to human audiences, as they are designed to work when held in a cat's mouth or between two paws.
Artisans: Trade
Since artisans are responsible for crafting the tools of the Clans, they journey to their neighbor's borders and engage in trade. Most trade is a simple bartering system; one Clan gives another a basket in exchange for a pot, a jar of oil for a rare and brilliant stone. Artisans have a largely unspoken agreement on the value of certain items, based on how easily said resource can be obtained across all five Clans and its uses. The value also adjusts based on the quality of the work done. Artisans argue and barter about the value of their goods and what they should get in return. A good artisan apprentice learns how to craft a good argument, often joining codekeeper apprentices in their lessons on the subject. An outsider would likely be confused by the leaps of logic artisans make in their arguments, but it's just the language of trade.
Artisans are often joined by mediators when they need to discuss diplomacy or trade services as opposed to goods. Artisans do some of their best work during the Gathering, when everyone brings supplies for communal dishes and hostilities are forgotten for a while.
Artisans: Entertainment
When artisans aren't working on their crafts or going to the borders, they entertain their Clanmates. They learn songs, dance, and play some of the few instruments the Clans have made for themselves. You'll often find a few artisans performing at the Gathering or other Clan-wide holidays/celebrations. They make dye and paint on rocks or leather in a rudimentary canvas (the latter of which must be carefully stored to prevent damage). They even make carvings from wood and stone.
Like historians, artisans tell stories, but their tales are purely fictional. With fictional tales, they can play with morals and impart lessons on others without the suffering of real cats. They may supplement these stories with acting, carvings, and even some of the strangest accessories of all; masks. These shows and performances lend artisans to the task of holiday preparation and organization, making sure everyone in the Clan makes sure to take time off.
RippleClan... really needs an artisan.

Is there a difference between cristal and vidrio?
It depends
In some countries they're synonymous for "glass"
I think of el cristal as being more commonplace, but el vidrio is more common in technical terms especially in terms of glassblowing and glaziers
There's a difference in terms of chemistry and technical terms, but I've found that when talking about "panes of glass" or the glass part of something el cristal is more common but vidrio isn't wrong
But! Keep in mind that el cristal can mean "crystal" and not just "glass", so it can have other uses
To me, the difference between the two words is similar to the one between la piel and el cuero for "leather", where la piel (though it literally is "skin") is more common, el cuero is a bit more technical; and there's a technical difference in terms of leathermaking but for the layperson they come out as synonymous
