It is mean to call him that, you know? His cognomen is Cicero, not Monster.
Wait, or is it like with Frankenstein and his monster? In this case the monster's name is De Consulatu Suo.

Do you think Gerard's comics are good? I haven't read all of them. I felt like the story doesn't really wrap up well and make sense good in the Killjoy comics or Umbrella Academy but maybe comics are just like that. Maybe they were imitating other writers I don't know about and I'm missing context. What are your thoughts
anon i am so deeply biased towards gerards comics but YES i do think theyre good! I think lots of the critiques are fair but i also think it leads to the fandom kind of underrating him as a comic author at times and dismissing the work out of hand. I especially see this for umbrella academy and to answer your other question yes i do think some of it is a matter of missing context! TUA was never...really made to be a popular and commercial comic? The satire and style are very inside baseball, mostly about x men, as well as later leaning more into a silver age style of both writing and illustration (which is why im soooo obsessed w hotel oblivion guys its so goood its so good i swear)
When it comes to other comic runs, I'd say killjoys comics tend to be the messiest but they are also deeply meaningful to me wnd natuonal anthem is so fucking gorgeous and interesting (controversial but im a natam ending defender even if i think the comic itself couldve used another issue or 2 to push the character writing more). I think gerard has one of the better doom patrol runs, Including milk wars i'd put it up there at maybe 3rd or 4th depending on how much i let personal bias into the equation. However doom patrol is also very Like That just as like a superhero group and can be kind of impenetrable if you arent down for genuinely bizarre and sometimes seemingly nonsensical writing, its kind of apart of the teams DNA as the "worlds strangest heroes". Milk wars is soso good and maybe one of my favorite Comic Things gerard has made/been involved with but its also best with looots of comic context bc its playing w both doom patrol history and the context of where DC as a company was during the time of its release. Its still relevant in many ways but probably feels impenetrable if you arent already into comics at least a bit.
Gerards style def isnt for everyone (and they do sometimes get bored and cheese the ending a bit though i defs tend to like them more than other ppl do) but i do think theyre extremely good at what rhey do and im soooo excited for paranoid gardens especially bc 1. gerard has always taken an extremely empathetic and nuanced and honest approach to writing about mental health and mental illnesses bith real and semi fictionalized and 2. the artist on board is an industry mainstay and has made some fucking incredible work! I didnt love the first issue cover dropped and was worried i wouldnt click w the artstyle but after properly checking out chris westons style im really excited!!!! gerard time

So far there's several plants and animals, from which Sutviprra get their food. They forage and hunt indescrimenantly, but some plants on the Natam peninsula are distinguished by the sutviprra to be more bountiful than other.
Tumblr media
Some plants have more taste because they evolved to be poisonous to Exaostea, some develop tubers as a bacterial symbiosis and some result from the bacterial infection - plants were modified by the pathogen to provide them with shelter and sugar but same feature turned out to be desirable for the Sutviprra
Tumblr media
One steppe dwelling proximaptera produces both fertilized and mislead eggs, and makes several nests, only one of which is guarded. Sutviprra pick up on this adaptation and harvest the eggs from the nests.
There are no "rodents", their niche is taken by crab-like creatures, capable of cracking up seeds with their claws. So far they are no pain, but their habitat commonly overlaps with Sutviprra's

خرشنة هجينة (الاسم العلمي:Chlidonias hybrida) (بالإنجليزية: Whiskered Tern) خرشنة في فصيلة Laridae. اسم الجنس مأخوذ من اليونانية القديمة khelidonios ، "يشبه السنونو" ، من khelidon ، "السنونو". الهجين المحدد هو لاتيني للهجين. يحتوي هذا الطائر على عدد من الأجناس الجغرافية التي تختلف بشكل رئيسي في الحجم وتفاصيل الريش الطفيفة. تتكاثر الهجينة في الأجزاء الأكثر دفئًا من أوروبا ومنطقة Palearctic (شمال غرب إفريقيا ووسط وجنوب أوروبا إلى جنوب شرق سيبيريا وشرق الصين وجنوبًا إلى باكستان وشمال الهند). أصغر منقار وأغمق C. h. تم العثور على delalandii في شرق وجنوب أفريقيا ، وأكثر شحوبًا C. h. javanicus من جافا إلى أستراليا. الأشكال الاستوائية مقيمة ، لكن الطيور الأوروبية والآسيوية تقضي الشتاء جنوبًا إلى إفريقيا وشبه القارة الهندية. شوهدت طائر الخرشنة المعلمة في محمية ماناكودي للطيور ، منطقة كانياكوماري في تاميل نادو ، الهند في شهر أبريل 2021. يتكاثر هذا النوع في مستعمرات في المستنقعات الداخلية ، أحيانًا بين النوارس ذات الرؤوس السوداء ، والتي توفر بعض الحماية. ينشأ الاسم العلمي من حقيقة أن هذه الطيور ، وهي أكبر من خرشنة المستنقعات ، يظهر أوجه تشابه في المظهر مع كل من خطاف البحر الأبيض وخطاف البحر الأسود. ‏============= @boyahia ============ ‏The whiskered tern (Chlidonias hybrida) is a tern in the family Laridae. The genus name is from Ancient Greek khelidonios, "swallow-like", from khelidon, "swallow". The specific hybridus is Latin for hybrid; Peter Simon Pallas thought it might be a hybrid of white-winged black tern and common tern, writing "Sterna fissipes [Chlidonias leucopterus] et Hirundine [Sterna hirundo] natam". ‏This bird has a number of geographical races, differing mainly in. ‏C. h. hybrida breeds in warmer parts of Europe and the Palearctic (northwestern Africa and central and southern Europe to southeastern Siberia, eastern China and south to Pakistan and northern India). The smaller-billed and darker C. h. delalandii is found in east and south Africa, and the paler C. h. javanicus from Java to Australia. ‏The tropical forms are resident, but European and Asian birds winter south to Africa and the Indian Subcontinent. A tagged whiskered tern was spotted at Manakudi Bird Sanctuary, Kanniyakumari District of Tamil Nadu, India in the month of April 2021.

◟༺✧༻◞ Teyvat chapter storyline preview: Travail —Chinese translation script—
The war has already begun— a continuation of the previous war. The gods encase the outlines of "desire" in seven types of brilliant light. With this, they demonstrate that their authority can be exceeded. Yet smoldering remains lie buried underneath the foundations of reality as a warning to those who overstep their bounds:
"That divine throne in the high heavens was never a seat reserved for you from the start."
But oh, you who oversteps your bounds, do not stop walking here. For none can watch the fire burn from the other side of the river. Watch...
—Act. Prologue: Mondstadt. Mea libertas meus canor (My freedom is my song)—
For the giant dragon who guarded the city of freedom for thousands of years. Doubts about [the concept of] "freedom" have begun to surface. A "freedom" that was ordered by a god— can it still be called freedom?
—Act. I: Liyue. Ruat caelum fiat pactum (Let the contract be made, though the heavens fall)—
In an audience of many, the God of Contracts was assassinated. At the very end, he shall sign a contract to end all contracts.
—Act. II: Inazuma. Perpetua perennis impervia (Perpetual, perennial, impervious)—
Under the immortal Shogun, the era of the Sakoku Decree ordered by the Shogunate sees no end. The god who pursues "Eternity"— What kind of eternity does she find within the eyes of ordinary mortals?
—Act. III: Sumeru. Sub floreis lumen sagacitatis (Under the flowery light of sagacity)—
Wisdom is the enemy of the God of Wisdom. Knowledge is a bait floating on the surface of the sea of ignorance. In the city of learning, the scholars are pushing for foolishness, and the god's wisdom has raised no objections to this.
—Act. IV: Fontaine. Iustitia omnia vincit (Justice defeats all)—
The God of Justice is an ardent admirer of all the farces that take place in the courtroom, even yearning to judge her fellow gods. But one thing is very clear to her: the Heavenly Principles are the one thing she cannot make her enemy.
—Act. V: Natlan. Surge vir fortis I natam victoriam (Rise, O strong man, and go to your destined victory)—
The rules of war are carved into the bodies of all living things: The defeated become embers of the fires of war, while the victors will reignite. The God of War confides this secret with the Traveler, because she has reasons for doing so.
—Act. VI: Snezhnaya. Ducam regina mea gloria haud pluribus impar (Let me lead my queen to near unmatched glory)—
She is a god whom no one will love ever again; She is a god who will never love anyone again. The reason why people follow her Is because they believe one day she will finally be able to raise a flag of rebellion against the Heavenly Principles.
In an eternity with neither beginning nor end, humans shall live a peaceful life without dreams. But in the blind spot of the gods' gaze, there are still people who want to dream.
—Act. ▇▇: Khaenri'ah. The dream yet to be dreamed—
All humans have that innate quality which makes them human; We are not the residue left behind from filtering out those who were "chosen by the gods." From beyond this world, we will obtain the power to reject this world.
Now, you who have traversed heaven and earth— Your travels and journey have ended, But you have yet to cross the final doorway. If you have understood the purpose of your travels, then come forward. Defeat me, command me to step aside, and prove to me that you are more suitable than me to rescue her. After that, go forth spin all the threads of fate anew.
My memory has already suffered too much erosion, but I will always remember, that she also loves these flowers.
