🍟: What does your OC admit to be their guilty pleasure? What actually is their guilty pleasure?
Your choice who you answer :)
Pickle will admit that his guilty pleasure is smoking a lot of weed and then going to see a scary movie, but his actual guilty pleasure is putting mustard on ice cream. His other guilty pleasure that he will die before admitting is that he LOVES Supernatural, and that Dean Winchester is his man crush.

Where do you learn all these care specifics and scientific names and such? I've kept lots of critters (2 madagascar hissing roaches for a few years, some wild-caught adult grasshoppers and katydids for a few months, some mealworms into adulthood, etc) but I never knew stuff like what specific diseases they can catch and how to check, or how to tell different species of grasshoppers or whatever apart. Did you study this in college or just read up on things on your own? When I try to look up stuff like cockroach care I always end up with a million "how to kill nasty evil roaches because everyone hates them" articles.
I've been identifying bugs and using scientific names since I was little, so the years of experience helps, but there are many very accessible sources to help make learning about bugs easier!
I started with a field guide a lot like this, although some of the more basic ones don't have even half of the things you could find (just the more common ones). good field guides should also have scientific names, so you can learn those alongside the common names. scientific names are often much more helpful than the common names since those can change with region and language, but also because many bugs just don't have a common name.
if you happen to be in the US or Canada, BugGuide is a very useful resource where you can ask ID or look at other's submissions. obviously it's fairly limited by range, but has some very nice records and helpful experts.
iNaturalist is also a very helpful tool. it's fun to explore your local critters as well as those all around the world with the map, and you can get pretty decent IDs from the community (though often non-experts and the AI identifier can both be very wrong).
various forums and social media are also great for talking to other keepers and learning about bugs in captivity from them. as much as I hate it, Instagram has a nice population of bug keepers and just chatting with them can give you a lot of helpful tips and strategies.

hello shark. my biggest hyperfication a few years ago was the (penguins part of the) madagascar series. boy was I excited when netflix made an original show all about the lemurs that was animated like the movies and everything.
boy was it so weird
so I don't know how much you know about the little brown one, mort, he is obsessed with king julien's feet and in all apparences before this show, was just a weird comic relief/heel. He was very dumb and foot obsessed and that was the joke
then came the show All Hail King Julien
Mort is centuries old. Mort sometimes disassociates between personalities or "different Morts" inside his head, one of them being his grandmother who knows secrets to the universe. If Mort drinks coffee, Smart Mort takes over his body and suddenly he speaks with a trans-atlantic acent and knows literally everything. Mort's brain is actually a pocket universe where several deranged Morts lay relatively dormant for most of the show, until the Apoclypse happens and Mort has to go inside his own head to fight them back from clawing their way out into the world. He then has to fight his grandma Mort to the death in this head pocket universe.
An inventor man on the island creates a cloning machine, but it turns out that it is not cloning people, it is bringing in versions of them from alternate dimensions. Morts come out of it. Apparently there is one single dimension that is solely populated by Morts. at this point in the show, they are all referred to as Morts, he may be a lemur but he is his own species now. The Mort dimensions is lead by a Mort who is a Ghangis Kahn parody, Morticus Kahn. He leads every mort in the dimension like they are a hive mind.
So much shit happens in this show like penguins of madagascar was just about silly ninja secret agent penguins doing weird stuff. All Hail King Julien starts off as a funny, raunchy-humored at times show that is both more childish than it's successor, but takes on really weirdly complex themes for a show like this. The first season is like LOL JULIENS DUMBBB LETS DANCE TO EDM ALL DAY YAYYYY and the rest is about how mort is god and death and hell incarnate
I have never seen anyone talk about this and it lives with me forever because What The Hell Was I Watching??? I don't even know if you know anything about Madagascar but I saw you mention the lemurs and this happened.
this show put lemurs in my head
well I watched the Madagascar movies as a kid & I quite enjoyed the penguins (i have been kin assigned kowalski many times in the past). and I have heard whispers of mort’s dark truths. but this is wonderful information to have you are truly feeding my brain on this wonderful night. thank you

Seen your answer about your favorite moments for each of the thea sisters in the special editions, so how about your favorites thea sisters moments in the main series? And also which one is your favorite book from the main series?
MMMNNNHHHH
Okay so uhhh hmmm the last six books in the old artstyle are the ones I say where Thea Stilton peaked in adventure content (those being Old Castle, Blue Scarab Hunt, Prince's Emerald, Dancing Shadows, Orient Express, and Legend of the Fireflowers). Personally, I often flip back and forth between Old Castle, Blue Scarab Hunt, and Orient Express being my favorites because I have a soft spot for the first two (they were the first books I read in the series) and Orient Express is just goated in general
Orient Express is my current favorite, but expect it to change
OKAY FAVORITE MOMENTS, once again splitting it with lighthearted/dialogue moments, and important key moments in the plot
Lighthearted/dialogue moments:
Colette - Her literally becoming the embodiment of those cartoon characters yeeting their entire wardrobe over their head because they can't figure out what to wear for the occasion (Great Tulip Heist)
Nicky - That one time she made a dig at Violet because she slept in so hard that it made the girls late to their tournament day 1 (Roman Holiday)
Pam - When she called Ashvin the kid-friendly version of "a hot f#$kin' mess" (Ice Treasure)
Paulina - Her having to take a lotta copium from not having her phone or tablet with her in the jungle (Madagascar Madness)(I felt so called out ;w;)
Violet - Tie between the time she dunked on Enrico Mousetti's classist ass (Dancing Shadows) and "Well, in that case, we'd like to visit the castle while it's still standing." (Secret of the Old Castle)
Plot moments:
Colette - The time she did the classic "hot woman walks into the hallway" thing in Mystery in Paris
Nicky - THAT ONE TIME SHE CLIMBED ON TOP OF AND JUMPED OFF A SPEEDING FIRETRUCK (Big Trouble in the Big Apple)(I know she scaled a train in Orient Express, but this scene felt more badass)
Pam - Any and all chase scenes where she was driving ngl, woman carried (off the top of my head I can remember Blue Scarab Hunt and Prince's Emerald)
Paulina - Prince's Emerald, woman carried that book on her back and we love it, I hope she got a long, hot shower after that
Violet - Either the moment she figured out the giant boulder riddle in Blue Scarab Hunt, the time she big-brained the crap out of the mystery and told the girls that Fadhili was the traitor in Lion's Den, or uh the belowdeck scene in Ghost of the Shipwreck (I'm convinced that that was the moment that cemented Violet as my blorbo for second grade me), honorable mention goes to Violet tying a chess metaphor into the villain's strategy in Orient Express, said metaphor becoming the key to realizing what the villain was up to
Notice how the last six books appeared semi-frequently in my rankings? That's how goated they are :]
Honorable mention for a uh a scene in general is a scene between Vi and Paulina in Orient Express:
"Ohmygodohmygodohmygod it's Zelda Mitoff :DDDDD"
"Yeah but good god her secretary's an idiot, he forgot one whole trunk in the luggage count"
".... bish you just saw the ballerina equivalent of Whitney Houston pass by and all you could think about was b o x e s ?"
I dunno if the Whitney Houston analogy makes sense but you get what I mean, that's peak fangirl right there, you love to see it
Anyway hope that answers your question, now I'm gonna wait cutely for ya'll to read the Treasure Seekers because it's really good (besides the power of friendship stuff), okay byeeeeeeee

*I AM NO CHEAP THIEF / IT'S THE WORLD OR NOTHING AT ALL.
*NAME: Delphine Baudelaire. *TITLE: The Oracle. *AGE: 29. *PINTEREST: here
»» the flourish of hands married to the drama of words; action as distraction so the discretion of your thievery can commence; the shadows on the wall, shapes created only in others' illumination, shifting with the faintest breath; a deck of cards as both shield and spectacle; a tightrope fraying at both ends; delusive creation as an act not just of godhood, but girlhood — something known in the very fibers of your being.
BASICS, HISTORY, SECRETS & WANTED CONNECTIONS UNDER THE CUT !!
*BASICS.
BIRTH NAME: Delphine Baudelaire NICKNAMES: Delphi TITLE: The Oracle AGE: 29 D.O.B.: tbd (i'm feeling gemini or sag energy for this one <3) BIRTHPLACE:  Tomasina, Madagascar LANGUAGES SPOKEN: French (native), Malagasy (native), English ORIENTATION: Bisexual biromantic RELATIONSHIP STATUS: single ?? (possibly has some fwbs, see history below) CHILDREN: none POSITIVE TRAITS: alluring, witty, adaptable NEUTRAL TRAITS: flirtatious, inventive, coy NEGATIVE TRAITS: delusive, dishonest, mercurial INSP: Holly Golightly, Selina Kyle / Catwoman, Anna Karenina, Margaery Tyrell
*TLDR. (APP + SOME EXTRA DETAILS)
We are so glad to see you safe, FORTUNE-TELLER (SPY FOR MADAGASCAR) DELPHINE BAUDELAIRE of FRANCE! It’s dangerous out in the world these days, but I hear that you are ALLURING and COY enough to handle it. Just don’t let your MERCURIAL NATURE bring you down! Stay on your guard, because with your secret being at risk for exposure, you wouldn’t want everyone to find out THAT YOUR LOYALTIES HAVE BEGUN TO SHIFT FROM THE COUNTRY EMPLOYING YOU TO THE COUNTRY ON WHICH YOU SPY. For Delphine, time has been rendered thick with the hauntings of her past. Born in Madagascar to a poor, criminally-inclined family, she learned quickly to steal in order to survive, and to charm as a means of disarm. As punishment for her and her father's treasonous acts at the start of Madagascar's solidification as a standalone nation, she acts as a spy on the French, with her cover being half-socialite, half-court entertainer. Now, with political revolution spilling over the hallowed halls Delphine has grown accustomed to, she contends with the promise and purpose for something greater than herself, the temptation of her nature, and the hauntings of her past.
*HISTORY.
[ trigger warnings for: mentions/descriptions of blood, war, implications of sex work, more tbd ]
I. EMBER IN THE ASH
»» Delphine's childhood was littered not with toys and pretty things, but stoney streets lined with more bloodshed than blossoms, soldiers fighting over territory disputes as the country itself clamored for independence. Her family was not made of fighters but of thieves. She quickly followed suit, roaming the reddened streets to pick the pockets of the fallen for any trinket to pawn, unbothered by the sights or sounds of the dying.
»» Once too young to know the difference between polish and peril, Delphine used the shell casing of a musket as a hard candy. A gnawing pain in the mouth of a two-year old brought her mother's attention to the hollowed-out bullet between the young Delphine's gums. But, before taking it out, her mother first brandished the moment to her father, a chorus of look at your daughter less a call for reprimand and more an affectionate coo — all for putting a killing thing in her young little mouth.
II. BEAUTY & BETRAYAL.
»» It wasn't the metal that poisoned her, but the so-called love she was weaned on, love which taught little of the closeness of kin in exchange for all manner of thievery, conning, and swindling. Beyond just the apple of her father’s eye, she was fruit bowl and orchard to him — a perfect creature whose particular talents were rarely seen, to set upon the masses in a firestorm of charisma and chaos, blinding the world with her unquestionable beauty.
»» However, he bet on the wrong grand scheme, believing that his wife's homeland could never separate from the 'greater' nation of France. The betrayal of secrets slipped from Delphine's mouth to the ears of a war-hungry general of a neighboring tribe — only for both the general and her father to be put to death for treason, once the nation formalized.
III. GAME, SET, MATCH.
»» Delphine, only nineteen, found her fate left in the hands of a country eager to cement its standing. They saw promise in her, but rejected the leniency of a pardon, too fearful of the girl to grow into her father's shadow, and too wary of the ease in treating the chaotic birth of a nation as ladder rungs upon which to ascend. What better use for a girl whose talents lay in dishonesty and charm than to set her on the world at large?
»» A bag, a few memories, and the crumbs of her birthplace were the only things she carried with her on the journey to the nation on which she was tasked to spy, her mother left in the clutches of Madagascar's government as collateral. It was her father's native country, but it bore no similarities to the man she knew — where he was shadowy but strong, France was a weakened country clinging to the notion of its more glorious past.
»» To the French court, Delphine presented herself as both refugee and gift, escaping the fray as the new country solidified itself, with a talent for supposed divination. To the court, she was no great threat: less a girl who knew the nature of their newfound enemy, and more a pretty young thing they could use to entertain the court from time to time — a distraction.
»» Their attention, however, was grasped entirely when she 'predicted' the location and outcome of a battle, one which supposedly gained France a different African ally. The truth of the matter rested in Madagascar's own carefully planned instructions, sewing seeds of certain belief for the French while Madagascar went on to harvest. A long game, to be sure, but one which garnered secret strides while France was none the wiser.
IV. SHIFTING TIDES.
»» Nearly ten years into her employ, Delphine has become a bourgeoning young socialite, a favorite in the court if only for her entertaining charm and talents as a so-called oracle. Privately, a few nobles have taken to indulging her mercurial fancies in exchange for a nights sharing a warm bed and the divined assurances of their success. The woman enjoys the life to be certain, but still finds herself practicing her old thieving ways from time to time, playing with fire less for excitement, but more so as a means of keeping her core warm.
»» It is not for those reasons, however, that her loyalties have begun to shift. Instead, as a means of gathering information on all facets of the French people, Delphine has taken to associating with more of the common folk, finding in them a certain kinship that simply doesn't exist amidst the lacquered halls and gilded glory of the upper-crust. With a political revolution tinting the rosiness of France in shades of democracy, Delphine has found herself utterly captivated by what seems to be a purpose greater than herself — but the temptation of her nature still lingers, and the hauntings of her past may loom too heavily to ever truly escape.
*WANTED CONNECTIONS.
my brain hurts but i'll add these soon i promise <33 hmu in the meantime pls!!!

when me and my best friend from primary school were obsessed with madagascar i would be king julian and she would be maurice. when we were obsessed with the road to el dorado i was tulio and she was miguel. in our night at the museum phase i was the roman and she was the cowboy and we made up a theme song for ourselves and when these other kids begged us to let them into our inner circle we forced them to learn the song and perform chants about the characters we kinned and we sat in a circle and drew runes in the middle with chalk and forced them all to pledge allegiance to the cult and then when me and my best friend started growing distant we segregated the cult into two tribes and each of us led a different tribe and fought over a football which we pretended was the baby lemur from madagascar. and then i made a new best friend in my tribe and we started training for the hunger games in her garden after school every day and my old friend wrote me a letter saying she was ok with my new friendship as long as the new friend didn’t replace her as the tiny cowboy. then in our final year the three of us became best friends and walked to school together every day and made a new exclusive club just for us and then we mostly stopped talking when we went to different high schools but a few years ago i ran into one of them on the bus and started talking and i told her i was essentially in love with both of them and she was like yeah no me too that’s why we always pretended to be gay coded couples from movies you fucking idiot

Tagged by @i-hate-liking-batman 💕 again thanks for the tag, I like these activities.
✔️10 characters, 10 fandoms, 10 tags. Here you go-
1. Gaap Goemon ❤️ Mairimashita Iruma kun
Tumblr media
Anyone who follows me probably know that he's my #1 favourite character. I love him so much. I spend hours doing something for this fictional character, even though it consumes my time and energy. But in the end, I feel happy. He's the most handsome guy in my eyes. He is sweet and cute, cooks and serves food for everyone, rescues the weak and takes care of them. His love is unconditional. I should stop here or this post would end up talking only about him!
2. Teufel Shaoron 😈💕- Makai no shuyaku wa ware ware da
Tumblr media
Chubby cheeked Shaoron ❤️ he is a true High school boy. He reminds me of naughty ones at school. I can also see myself in him sometimes, having a rival who doesn't even know I've proclaimed them as my rival lol.. trying to be the best, getting into trouble, problems with best friends, goofing around..how is this different from a real high school? I love his fashion and bubbly nature ❤️ He makes mistakes, most of the time being naughty but he's a good boy. That's what a real boy his age is like.
3. Doraemon ❤️
Tumblr media
Though I don't post about Doraemon, I love him and I love the whole show. It's heart touching, the relationship between Doraemon and Nobita. Nobita being an emotionally rich boy, his comfort is always Doraemon. This show has such a big emotional value. Doraemon is that friend who awaits him in his room eating dorayaki and the boy forgets all his school struggles and embraces his brother ❤️ there are no boundaries between them. I love Doraemon.
4. Kengo Asamura ❤️🥰- Monochrome Factor
Tumblr media
A lot of people don't know Monochrome Factor. If you do, you're my friend. I love this manga and I love Kengo ❤️ He's like a caring big brother. Has been my comfort character for a long time. He's cheerful and cute, voiced by Hiroshi kamiya. His best friend is Akira Nikaido voiced by Daisuke Ono, who enters into a contract with a shadow man called shirogane voiced by Junichi suwabe. The trio is here right? MF is also an amazing fantasy High school story. In the end Kengo sacrifices his life (manga) but in the anime he's alive and I wish to believe that.
5. King Julien 👑
Tumblr media
The king of Madagascar! He appears in his own series All Hail king Julien and in The penguins of Madagascar and Madagascar movies as well. Like Shaoron, king Julien is also a very realistic portrayal of humans. He's not at all perfect but he's just perfect to be loved, to kin yourself with and he conquers your heart like a king! He doesn't have the typical qualities of a king nor he tries to live up to others expectations. He rules the Kingdom his own way by not sacrificing his hobbies and interests. I want to be like him. We should all learn from him. We don't have to sacrifice everything for the sake of something great. We should be ourselves.
6. Naruto uzumaki 🥹❤️- Naruto, Naruto shippuden, spin off, Boruto
Tumblr media
Naruto 🥰❤️ he made my childhood days magical. I heard the word ninja for the first time in Naruto. I first watched the English dub before getting access to internet and streaming sites. It took me a period of years to finish everything and I consider it as a personal record ☺️ Boruto is ongoing and I watch it too but my favourite is always Naruto. Especially the child Naruto who is naughty, stubborn and cheerful.
7. Xerxes Break 🍭🍬🍫- Pandora Hearts
Tumblr media
Break is my favourite character from Pandora Hearts. ❤️ He is sweet toothed, wears fancy clothes and has the kind of fantasy vibe that inspires me. He is goofy despite carrying a burden in his heart and in his conversation with Oz about the Abyss he asks him something. "Did it(abyss) look like a broken toy box?" That touched me. That's the whole spirit of Pandora Hearts. A dystopian Alice in Wonderland ❤️
8. Kagura ❤️ - Inuyasha
Tumblr media
Kagura is my favourite from Inuyasha. She's an antagonist but I love her. I wish she lived and married Sesshomaru or lived the life she wanted, free like the wind. I love her line " I am the wind, the free wind". She is so beautiful and I think as a little girl I fell in love with her.
9. Pratheek 🥰🍭 - Ra. One
Tumblr media
He's the protagonist of the Indian musical movie Ra. One that focuses on a hero and villain from a game coming to life. The villain Ravan is after "Lucifer" (pratheek) the player who defeats him always, when he comes to life. Pratheek is the son of the video game developer. He reminds me of Shaoron.
10. Anjali ❤️😘 - kuch kuch hota hai
Tumblr media
Also from Indian movie. Anjali played by my favourite actress Kajol, is one of my favourite tomboy characters. I love her so much 💝
I still have more favorite characters in the shows I mentioned but the rule says one character from 10 shows. Thank you again ❣️ and I tag
@jemimacatclover @reddsprite @summerflower3 @pursonsoisooi @agarespicero @slavic-brock @rufusvarma @shaoron @gaia56s @csoisoi @yuurishibuyademonking @cyanwyrmie @madmarchhare @anonymousless-nes @tomikerujisari and anyone who wants to join ❤️ please feel free to tag me I might have skipped someone very important that's because I'm tired RN but if you like this game please join ❤️ feel free to ignore too 🥰

🦧Primates🐒
.
Primate kin
Colugos. Not quite primates, but I love them anyway.
.
Basal primates
Basal animals are those which are closer to the base of a particular section of the tree of life. A more traditional word for this concept is primitive. So for example, amphibians are basal land vertebrates. Here I have classified basal primates as any which are not monkeys and/or apes, including Strepsirrhini and Tarsiiformes.
Lemurs
A group of basal primates found exclusively on the island of Madagascar.
.
New world monkeys
Monkeys which are native to the “new world”, or the Americas. They are the only non-human primates found here. It is thought they arrived to the Americas tens of millions of years ago, when a group of African monkeys were blown out to sea by a storm. They survived the journey across the Atlantic on a natural raft of floating vegetation, and founded a new group of primates: Platyrrhini.
.
Old world monkeys
These are monkeys native to the “old world”: Africa and Eurasia. Also known as Cercopithecidae.
.
Apes
A group of large old world monkeys most recognisable by their lack of a tail. More formally known as Hominoidea.
Lesser apes
Consists of all the gibbon species, found in the treetops all across Southeast Asia.
Great apes
Includes orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans. All living species of great ape have been documented using tools.
🐫Ungulates🐃
.
Odd-toed ungulates
Odd-toed ungulates, of course, have an odd number of hooves. They include horses, tapirs, rhinos, and their extinct relatives. They might actually be less closely related to even-toed ungulates than you’d think!
.
All ungulates from here on out are Even-toed ungulates:
These have an even number of hooves, and include most living hoofed mammals. Whales are technically included in this group, but they’re best left for another time.
.
Camelidae
Consists of camels, llamas, and their extinct relatives. They are often adapted for harsh climates such as deserts and mountains.

Multituberculate Earth: Miocene
Tumblr media
Two apex predators, the microcosmodontid Shah rajah and the kogaionid Arsinoedon mastix. The latter is dominating the kill, but the former will ultimately outlast it due to it less specialised diet. By corvarts.
Balmier than the previous Oligocene, the Miocene in our timeline was pretty much “out with the old, in with the modern”, creating the baselines for the modern flora and fauna. In this timeline, similar changes similarly occured, causing drastic turn overs in flora and fauna.
By far the most well known example is the collision between Afro-Arabia and Eurasia, causing a biotic interchange between the two previously seperated continents. Giant predatory kogaionids came face to face with saber-toothed microcosmodontids, sudamericids and adalatheriids met their galulatheriid cousins, and herds of hopping and running boffids entered Eurasia while hooved lambdopsalids entered Africa. To the end of the period, Africa would even collide with the Iberian Peninsula, shutting down the Tethys for good. The effects of this faunal interchange were complex and uneven; for instance lambdopsalids took various large sized niches in open environments and small sized ones in forested environmentswhile boffids took smaller sized hopping niches in open environments and large sized bipedal niches in forest environments.
Zealandia finally emerges fully, allowing us to examine the unique Saint Bathans Fauna, which includes the unique indigenous zealanditheres.
For the most part, things stay the same in Anatarctica, South America and Australia, though climatic shifts make some megafaunal groups like mesungulatids and sudamericids decline.
Eucosmodontids in particular witness a massive ecological radiation. Mouse-like forms spread as grain-filled praries expand, predatory ones both in response to their kin-prey as well as the decline of microcosmodontids and flightless kogaionids and ptilodontoideans.
On air, flying mammals are as suchessful as ever. In fact, they even produce one sophont species, Mazda sraosha, the first civilization this timeline has ever known.
On the seas, things haven’t been as dangerous as the Cretaceous. Giant marine reptiles are now joined by giant fully marine mammals as well as a return of teleosts and coalacanths, capped by gigantic sharks that can probably be classified as Otodus megalodon.

hi. i had a lil funny. you know, the lil funnies that manifest in your head with no logic nor reason-- but a funny none-the-less. with that said, if floyd leech were to have a kin list for whatever godforsaken shenanigains he'd be up to, Rico from the Penguins of Madagascar  would be on that list. Yes. Rico the penguin. The one who hacks up dynamite. (Update. Also. The inflatable men. The ones in front of car dealerships. The ones that go ~fwoosh~ with their arms. Yes. Floyd.) I do not know why I know this information, I do not know what spectral forces conjured it up, but what I do know was that it has the potential to ruin someone's day. And that someone is you. Peace n love. I hope that while being simultaneously ruined by this, that your day is somewhat excellent. You are a fantastic writer, and I enjoy the incoherent brainrot. Please dont forget to hydrate. Live laugh love. Peace.
oh my god you’re so fucking right if he had a kin list that mf penguin would be on it.
i still love him as my boyfie but WHY ARE YOU RIGHT ANON?????? HELLO?????????
