How would the ros react to seeing old photos of the mc when they were younger? Maybe a few pictures of their milestones like highschool graduation, first relationship, first prom etc.
I think F would be more fascinated by things in the picture than necessarily the MC as young. Like F would want to know where it was taken, what they were doing, what memories from that day, etc. More about the MC's life in that moment than the picture itself.
N would be torn between teasing and cooing, hehe! :D But I think they would also love to actually see more of who the MC was before all of the supernatural got involved.
A would feel incredibly awkward! Although their interest would be piqued about the life the MC had led until now (and then feel horribly guilty about where it's leading now the supernatural are involved!)
M wouldn't care too much. They're not really a photo person and more of a 'in the now' person. Definitely not a person who would be down for those couple photos!
Thank you so much for the ask! :)

日本の社会教育・成人教育、臨床心理学の研究者によるライフストーリーをテーマとした本"Life history in adult education and clinical narrative in Japan"が2023年9月にフランスで出版されます。その出版を記念して、フランス・トゥール大学を会場に、対面とオンラインの両方で研究会が開催されました。
私は、”Rebuilding the community through narrative learning. Social education and community development in Japan”というテーマで、オンラインで研究発表を行いました。興味深い質問も頂戴し、学術的に大きな刺激を受けました。本の出版が楽しみです。
"Life History in Adult Education and Clinical Narrative in Japan", a book about life stories by Japanese social and adult education researchers and clinical psychologists, will be published in France in the fall of 2023. To celebrate its publication, a research conference was held at the University of Tours, France, both in person and online.
I presented my research online on the topic “Rebuilding the community through narrative learning: Social education and community development in Japan.” I received some interesting questions and was greatly stimulated academically. I look forward to the publication of the book.

How about if you had to make a Shadow box that reflects your life, up to this time? Lets say the area you have to work with is 2 feet by 3 feet. Like a sheet of poster board. And has to be in some kind of frame. What sort of things would be in your shadow box? And why?

Alright, Chanukah starts tonight, which means it's time for me to finally make a post about different kinds of menorahs.
This right here? This is the Temple Menorah:
There's some debate over whether the branches were straight or curved, but here's a few things we do know:
It had seven branches of equal length.
It was made of one solid piece of gold
It was at least five feet tall.
It used pure olive oil.
The Temple Menorah is what people mean when they talk about The Menorah. It's what you'll see on historical or commemorative artifacts such as the Arch of Titus in Rome or Israeli currency:
During the time when the Temple stood in Jerusalem, the High Priest lit all seven flames on this Menorah every day (using the aforementioned pure olive oil):
No one lights this on Chanukah.
This is a Chanukah menorah:
There are countless variations, but here are the important things:
It has eight branches of equal length, plus a ninth "helper" branch, known as the shamash, which is set apart from the rest of the branches and used to light the others.
It can be made of any material.
It is usually used with wax candles or oil, but, if necessary, one can use anything that burns.
In Hebrew, this kind of menorah is called a chanukiah.
Some Chanukah menorahs, like the one shown above, have the shamash in the middle. Others have it on the side:
Regardless, this kind of menorah is the one that has been lit by Jews on Chanukah for thousands of years. It's the menorah you'll seen in photographs of Jewish households, including this famous picture taken in Germany in 1931:
(The message written on the back of the photo reads: "Death to Judah"/ So the flag says/ "Judah will live forever"/ So the light answers)
On Chanukah, whoever is lighting the menorah will first light the shamash, then the number of candles corresponding to whichever night of Chanukah it is. The first night, only the rightmost candle is lit, the second night the two rightmost, etc. (The newest candle is always lit first):
Again, a valid Chanukah menorah has eight branches of equal length, along with a shamash. There is no such thing as a Chanukah menorah with six branches of equal length and a longer seventh branch, and no valid Chanukah menorah has eight branches of completely different lengths.
If you see either of the above designs (or anything similar) on Chanukah-themed decor, it tells you the creator has absolutely no idea what they're doing and couldn't be bothered to do more than two seconds of research to make sure their product was accurate. Anyone who knows anything about the holiday will laugh at these. (They may buy them anyway, especially if that's all that's available-- my new Chanukah sweater has an invalid menorah pattern, but it's adorable, so I'm still going to wear it. But I am also laughing about it and invite you all to do the same.)
Anyway, have a happy Chanukah, everyone!

Polistes olivaceus
Polistes olivaceus (European paper wasp)
Polistes olivaceus, commonly known as the European paper wasp, is a species of social wasp belonging to the family Vespidae. These wasps are found in Europe, Asia, and North Africa. They were introduced to North America in the 1970s, where they have since established themselves as an invasive species.
Life History
P. olivaceus has a relatively short life cycle, with only one generation of adults produced each year. The queen, which is the largest individual in the colony, emerges from hibernation in the spring and begins to build a nest. The nest is constructed from wood pulp mixed with saliva and is usually located in a sheltered location, such as under leaves or in trees.
Once the queen has constructed a nest, she lays eggs that hatch into larvae. These larvae are fed by the queen and eventually develop into worker wasps, which take over the tasks of nest building, foraging, and caring for the young. The queen continues to lay eggs throughout the summer, and the colony can grow to several hundred individuals.
In the fall, the colony produces male wasps and new queens. These individuals mate, and the new queens go into hibernation, while the male wasps die. The old queen and her workers also die off, and the nest is abandoned.
Diet
P. olivaceus is primarily a predator of other insects. They are known to feed on a variety of insects, including caterpillars, spiders, flies, and other wasps. They use their sharp mandibles to capture their prey and then chew it up into a pulp that can be fed to the larvae in the nest.
In addition to insects, P. olivaceus has also been observed feeding on fruit and nectar. They are known to visit flowers to collect nectar, which they use to fuel their flights and to feed the larvae.
Habitat
P. olivaceus is a social wasp, meaning that they live in colonies. They typically construct their nests in sheltered locations, such as under eaves or in trees. The nest is made from wood pulp mixed with saliva and is constructed in a layered, papery structure.
Invasiveness
P. olivaceus was introduced to North America in the 1970s, likely as a result of accidental introduction through shipping. Since then, they have established themselves as an invasive species and are now found throughout much of the United States and Canada.
The impact of P. olivaceus on native ecosystems is not well understood, but they are known to compete with native wasp species for resources. They may also prey on native insects, potentially disrupting food webs.
Fun Facts
P. olivaceus is a social wasp, meaning that they live in colonies with a well-defined social structure. However, they do not have a hierarchical social structure like some other social wasp species, such as yellow jackets.
P. olivaceus has a distinctive black and yellow coloration, which can make them easy to spot. They are often mistaken for yellow jackets, but can be distinguished by their slimmer, more elongated bodies.
