Back when Undertale was big, someone in my circle of acquaintance made a post about how it felt like the "fandomized" version of a story with deeper, more complicated characters, that turned everyone into a cute bundle of quirks and awkward-but-sweet relationships.
I never liked that post, for a plethora of reasons, but lately I've been watching my partner play through Dragon Quest Builders 2.
And like, DQB2 came out after Undertale. It's definitely in conversation with it, in ways that older DQ games may not be. But like, the Dragon Quest games were clearly an inspiration for large parts of Undertale's Deep Lore (TM), and...
Tumblr media
This is the generic Skeleton enemy in Dragon Quest. It's a mook. You kill a bunch of them. They all have the exact same personality: fighty, a bit uptight, prone to making bone puns.
Do they, perhaps, look a bit familiar?
Tumblr media
Papyrus definitely takes some... shall we say, inspiration from the Dragon Quest skeletons. But where they're interchangeable mooks, he's a good bit more fleshed out. (Pun fully intended.) We get to see how much he wants to become Captain of the Royal Guard, how much of a earnest little weirdo he is, how much he loves his brother, how gentle he is and how unwilling he is to hurt you. You get to see a whole bunch of interiority from a character who, in another game, would be a bundle of bone puns.
If Undertale is the fandomized version of a different game, it's the "fandomized" version of a Dragon Quest game. And that says good things about fandom.

Todays rip: 09/07/2023
Story of Undertale
Season 5 Featured on: SiIvaGunner's Highest Quality Rips: Volume D
Ripped by Jamangar
youtube
Something I've expressed a lot of fondness for over the course of this blog is when rips..."escalate", so to speak. A lot of fantastic SiIva rips are simple in a way that's quite easily conveyed, and usually do what they want to achieve within just one loop. The meme medleys and fusion collabs are of course the obvious examples of rips that go against this: Changing styles althroughout their runtime to reflect a plethora of different jokes and different collaborators' styles of arranging. Yet sometimes, gold can be found in the most unexpected places.
Like often is on SiIva, the source of today's rip is coated in irony - an infamous Undertale parody called "UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL". Rather than being an actual "musical", the original video is a crudely animated parody of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, depicting a genocide run of the game to the tune of middling autotuned vocals. Being a gaming music video on Undertale, its made its way smoonthly into algorithms of gaming Youtube everywhere, ticking all of the boxes in a way similar to how the Minecraft Parody "Revenge" did way back when. Whilst Revenge lives happily ín our minds as a well produced encapsulation of the time it was uploaded in, UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL serves as a reminder of what kids' gaming youtube really looks like.
With that in mind, Story of Undertale - named after the first line said in the original parody - had everything needed for its success story lined up ahead. Its source, an audio that had spread online like wildfire and infesting Undertale fans the world over with or without their consent. Its ripper, Jamangar, is an absolutely legendary ripper for Undertale rips in particular, with a track record including the fan favorite, 600K-views-on-YouTube, End Point. All that was left then was the rip itself, and Jamangar went absolutely above and beyond.
Due to the channel's standard expectation of most rips not having visuals, rips such as Story of Undertale come with an interesting challenge to overcome: How do you convey the escalation present in the source's animation, without actually featuring any visuals? As UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL depicts a runthrough of the entire game, so too does Story of Undertale. Only here, its entirely by audio. Undertale's distinct themes are used as baselines for every different segment of the rip - The opening plays Once Upon a Time, followed by the first verse using Enemy Approaching and Fallen Down to reflect the beginning of the game, followed therafter by Nyeh Heh Heh and Snowdin Town to reflect the player exiting the ruins and meeting Papyrus and Sans for the first time. Its a perfect play-by-play speeding through the game's key audio moments in seconds, punctuated by the use of the Start Menu theme just after the moments I just described - the moment in which the player in UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL chooses to go down a genocide path.
The entire rips continues this way, excellently rearranging Bad Romance in every imaginable part of Undertale's soundscape in rough chronological order of their appearance. Through both the original Bad Romance's escalation and this everchanging evolution in sound, the joke never gets old: It refreshes itself faster than you can process, and keeps being an absolute bop throughout. Despite most people viewing UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL with distain, Jamangar was able to perfectly wield that attachment into an absolute masterpiece.

Nickname(s): Blooky Height: 3′6″ / 107 cm Gender: non-binary Pronouns: they/them Sexuality: aromantic / asexual

character tag
Asgore
Nickname(s): None Height: 8′0″ / 244 cm Gender: man Pronouns: he/him Sexuality: polyromantic / polysexual
+ talks to his flowers in the garden as a way of letting go of the stress on his mind. + low-key terrified of echo flowers both because he doesn’t like the idea of the flowers speaking back to him, and he’s scared people will hear the rants he’s told his flowers in the castle when he sees them. + any time he comes across some extra money, he’ll donate it to either someone in need or a charity.
character tag
Asriel
Nickname(s): None Height: 6′0″ / 183 cm Gender: man Pronouns: he/him Sexuality: grey-romantic / asexual
+ tries to make up for what he did as Flowey by doing as many good things as he can, especially for those he wronged. + he, unknowingly, was manipulated by Chara when they were growing up and has retained a plethora of self-guilt as a result. + coping with divorced parents alongside his own, unrepaired trauma from originally losing Chara has left him fairly emotionally weak and he still considers himself as a “crybaby” because of it.
character tag
Chara (19 yrs old)
Nickname(s): None Height: 5′6″ / 168 cm Gender: non-binary Pronouns: they/them Sexuality: aromantic / asexual
+ very determined to get what they want, no matter the costs of it. + does not realize they have manipulative/abusive tendencies and gets frustrated when people try to say they’re either of those things. + was bullied on the Surface and deemed a “monster,” so they adapted to monster culture very easily and wanted to re-invent themself to be more confident.
character tag
W.D. Gaster
Nickname(s): None Height: 6′3″ / 191 cm Gender: man Pronouns: he/him Sexuality: demiromantic / demisexual
+ didn’t actually do anything wrong; died from an unexpected accident during a scientific experiment. + a cheerful guy who likes cracking a lot of jokes more often than not. + ever since the accident he struggles to speak words, so he tends to speak with his hands to try and get the message across.

Crafting Halp Pls
I've been getting back into crochet lately and a couple of weeks ago I decided that my next project after the plethora of hats and scarves I've made before was gonna be a granny square cardigan! I couldn't decide between basing it off of Sun and Moon from FNAF: Security Breach or Sans and Papyrus from Undertale so I'm doing both. I found three patterns right away that were perfect for Sun/Moon and some I thought worked great for Undertale but only one of the three I needed really worked out. XC
Progress so far:
Tumblr media
I have a skull pattern I can use, but it doesn't really scream Sans or Papyrus to me. Any crafty people out there know of any bone, skull, or Undertale themed crochet patterns? Preferably if they can fit into a 4x4 inch square. I'm desperate for any ideas at this point since all of the patterns I've found and gauged have been way off base or didn't fit the vibe I was going for.

"Wanderer. I fell, asleep, please… Do excuse me."
He slowly unclenched his hands, like a butterfly freeing her wings from the cocoon and gripped the armrests, leaning towards his visitor, supposedly to take a better look at him. The chair creaked, echoing his movements. The bulge on his forehead was now apparent, the eye still visibly moving underneath the closed eyelids. Passionary's bizarre mannerisms threw Joey off, leaving him with the thought that he had encountered some covert life form. The passionary softly raised the edges of his lips, suggesting a smile, but his gaze remained pointed. His speech flowed leisurely, leaving you painfully exposed to the passage of time.
"My name is Reefert, and I have lived in these, lands, for as long as I can remember. Introduce yourself to me, stranger, and state the reason, for, your visit."
"I go by Joey, I'm a sailor, and I was sent to you to ask if you are interested in some leftover goods. There are three boxes...
Joey didn't even get to blink before the passionary gave his affirmative response, then dove into an unrelated question.
"Sure. We take everything… It shall not be wasted. Have you ever been, to, Tuavemari lands before, boy?"
Joey shook his head, "no".
"We have an interesting tradition here, which the locals call a "Chawtide". Something like, an annual competition, and an important asset, in, the life of the inhabitants of Tuave."
Reefert gestured at Joey in a suggesting manner.
"Young men living here are engaged in a test, for, strength, wit, and dexterity. Do you wish, to, participate?"
Joey pulled back his shoulders and adjusted his belt.
"Yeah! So what do I need to do?"
"Flying creatures reside here, ruzes, that terrorize the way of life, of, the people. Ruzes are truculent, unbridled, and intrusive. Local youths, having matured, go in search of their hollows in the tree trunks, and tear them down."
Reefert mimicked the motion of ripping something in half, then clutched his fists. Joey took notice of his sharp claws, just like his own. Just then, the fists opened to reveal his pink palms.
"Then, after a successful hunt, people rejoice and prance happily, for, the whole night. People love to celebrate."
Joey silently evaluated the task at hand.
"And what are they, these ruzes?", he inquired further.
"Their wingspan are that of a two-seated shallop. Their flight produces hum loud enough, to, rupture your hearing, and they usually prefer to attack first."
"Oh. And do they bite?"
"My dearest friend, you shall not be afraid, of, the bite, but afraid, of, the sting", Reefert shed light on why right then and there. "If they dive their stinger into you, then if you do not die, from, loss of blood, then poison shall destroy you, from, inside out."
Joey widened his eyes, contemplating his decision to participate in the Chawtide, then concluded, "I still have a lot of questions."
Reefert got up from his chair and approached his shelves, pulling out some kind of big rounded shell, which contained a collection of papyrus sheets inside, just like the ones he saw in the captured cargo the other day.
"I am aware, of, your concerns, Joey. It's never easy, to, develop into a mature being. However, if you can excuse me, I am encumbered with plethora, of, tasks this evening."
He glanced back over his shoulder, holding the shell close to heart, like some sort of treasure. Just this one gesture made Joey incredibly curious for the contents inside.
"At dawn, they will create a smokescreen that will mark the start, of, the event. You follow it to the beach, and I'll be expecting, to, see you at the competition. Do not disappoint me."
Joey got the hint that it was time for him to leave, and went down to the first floor. He looked around the place just once more before climbing the stairs, and got a feeling that he would return here someday.

🌿🌸 Unlocking the Ancient Secrets of Skincare: The Medicinal Origins of Cosmetics 🌸🌿
👉 Discover the captivating history of skincare that dates back 5,000 years to ancient Egypt! 👈
Tumblr media
🌟 Did you know that the very first cosmetics were used by the Egyptians to achieve a pleasant scent and soft skin? Incense oils and crushed flowers were just the beginning of a remarkable journey that would merge beauty with medicine. 🌺💆‍♀️
👩‍🔬 Step into the world of the ancient Greeks, who not only introduced the term "cosmetics" but also combined their knowledge of herbs and oils to create beauty concoctions with medicinal effects. Their expertise paved the way for what we know as modern cosmetics today. 💡💄
🌱 But wait, there's more to cosmetics than just looking good! Discover the fascinating revelation that cosmetics in ancient times were designed not only to enhance beauty but also to promote skin and body health. 🌟💖
🔍 Let's take a closer look at some incredible examples. The iconic Egyptian eyeliner not only made eyes pop but also shielded them from harmful sunlight and germs! 🌞💫 And did you know that Indian kajal liner was crafted from antibacterial herbs like neem and triphala? 🍃🌿 Beauty with a healthful twist!
🌸 In Japan, a lipstick called Benizara was made from safflower and rumored to have amazing benefits – from preventing gynecological issues to boosting blood circulation! 🇯🇵💄
📚 The wisdom of ancient civilizations lives on through herbal remedies found in the "Ebers Papyrus" (Egypt), "Botany" (Greece), "Ayurveda" (India), "Shennong" (China), and "Ishinpo" (Japan). 🌏💚 Embrace this timeless knowledge that connects us to nature and our past.
🌿🌹 Organic cosmetics harness the incredible power of botanical extracts, using innovative techniques to preserve the perfect balance of nature's wonders. No wonder they have amazing antioxidant and age-preventing effects! 🌿🍃
Tumblr media
💧 Let's talk about some superstar plants used in organic cosmetics. Rosemary, known for revitalizing the skin and fighting aging, while Chamomile soothes, hydrates, and combats pesky spots and freckles. And lavender? It's a multitasker with its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and skin-revitalizing properties. 🌹🌼🌱
🌹 Gallica red roses, the beauty all-rounder, moisturize, firm, improve blood circulation, and enhance skin tone. And there's birch sap, an amazing ingredient that eliminates spots, dullness, fatigue, and stress while promoting skin renewal. 🌹💧
🌎 Organic cosmetics celebrate the complexity of nature – containing countless beneficial components in perfect harmony. Unlike synthetic ingredients, which can have singular effects, these botanical wonders deliver a plethora of goodness! 🌺🌿
🍃 So let's appreciate the magic of nature, as even the most advanced modern science can't replicate a single leaf from a plant. 🍂🌱 Embrace the importance of organic cosmetics, rooted in ancient wisdom and abundant in natural plant ingredients. Together, let's achieve healthy, radiant skin the way nature intended! 🌿💖

Whither then! 3 5 7! I love hearing writers explain their writing if you hadn't noticed /silly
How lucky that I love talking about it! :D I will ramble under the cut :3
3: What’s your favorite line of narration?
There are a ton that I'm so fond of, but here's a fun little parallel that most people don't pick up on! Here's Black on reaching the Surface:
For the first time in his life, Sans thinks that he may possibly survive. Not just tomorrow, not just the latest attempt on his life—he may survive to old age. Or at least, long enough to honestly expect to have a future. He will need to do things, make plans. Build a life for more than just a moment.
He has the means to do it intentionally this time, instead of pouncing on every opportunity and forcing things to work out. He will do it perfectly. He has the luxury of perfectionism, now. And so very much that he would like to do perfectly.
He is the well-adjusted, capable guardian of a new teenager—a guardian with status and experience to back him up, instead of a technically-adult child panicking and scrambling to hold on to his equally frightened brother. And as an experienced guardian, he can provide all sorts of teenager things which he and Papyrus never managed to have for themselves. The list is as long as the concept is delightful.
Schools, for one—humans do education entirely differently from monsters. He will need to attend meetings with Frisk’s educators, to ensure that they are adequate for Frisk’s education and personal betterment. There will be trips to chaperone.
Museums. Frisk has confirmed that those are real. He will have to take his brother to a museum—no, to every museum.
Not just museums, either. There are art stores. Sans knows of them. There are whole buildings with a plethora of supplies for something as precious and frivolous as colors of paint and different types of paper.
Each new thing he thinks of seems equally impossible on its own. The idea that all of these things exist—that he is equally able to experience any one of them, or several in succession, just because he wants to—is…beyond comprehension. And yet, it is his reality. Now, abruptly, it is all too real.
The gist of it is: the world is, briefly, full of possibilities. This is the last chapter of WT, immediately before losing Frisk and the end of the fic. And then Just, in the first chapter of WWU, has the revelation that he may be experiencing brief linear time between Flowey's loops and the end of the world:
If today is today, and not any day before, then the flower’s loops are done. Sans has a precious few hours of real time when what he does will matter, set in stone before the next loops begin. He’s probably slept through half of it, but he’s got the whole rest of the morning and early afternoon of actual, real time to use however he wants.
He can remake his notes, if he chooses, and they’ll be guaranteed to be back to a decent starting point in every future RESET. He can get a calendar for the sheer depressing irony of it, and it won’t go back to being un-bought. If he wants to take his mail in so his box doesn’t look like a mess, he can do that, and the end of the world will see him with a clean mailbox. Take down the lights on his house. Put up more lights on his house. Make Papyrus a new outfit as a present, so he might change out of the costume he’s been wearing for…however long it’s been.
Yep. He’s got all sorts of stuff he could do. The world is full of possibilities.
I just think it's a ton of fun that they have this parallel of doomed hope and doomed despair. Both are just before a huge twist of fate related to Frisk's dimension-hopping, and it's so interesting to me that Black considers the world open to him in a moment of insane hope, whereas Just considers anything possible in a fit of despair just before his presumed death. And then they each make actual plans after this to just plod right along and do the next thing they need to; Sans goes home and does laundry and Black decides to buy a house. Both plan to spend quality time with their respective siblings.
5: What part was hardest to write?
oh boy. WT just came fully formed out of me, I feel like--I rarely struggled with inspiration or desire to write. I had the most trouble rewriting chapters 1 and 2 honestly, trying to get them to meld better in their current form to what the story had become. What really tripped me up is trying to change what easily came out of my head, so making things fit together and polishing up character arcs, remembering little details...actually I remember a recent chapter in which I completely forgot Black's daddy issues and he had complicated thoughts about frisk being his baby without acknowledging his complicated thoughts about parenthood. Normally he's fine saying Frisk is his ward/sibling/occasionally his child, but only with the clarification that he would never be something as awful as a parent to them. So that was a whoopsie.
7: Where did the title come from?
Aha! My secret is that I just take a line from a Tolkien poem every time I can't think of anything to title a fic with. So Whither Then is from a poem, and The Road Goes On is the title of that poem, and thus the series title. WWU's title is just a pun. Whither without you (Frisk asking where they're going to end up alone, without Red, without any of their family); wither without you (Just starting out isolated and dying, Frisk's fear of abandonment); with or without you (the ultimate questions of what to do with Red, and whether Frisk wants him in their life).
Thanks for the opportunity to talk about my writing some more :3 I love chatting about my little guys. I'm so proud of them.

A little info on my most standard interpretations of Edge and Stretch since I get really intense about visualizations for whatever I’m reading and don’t really describe them much in-fic plus just some fun facts <3
Stretch
The older of the two, but not by a lot (a couple of years by human standards)
Stands at 6’7, doesn’t slouch too terribly, but rarely stands his full height. The most slim of the Papyri, but still has a similar build to Rus (UT Papyrus)
Predominantly orange magic, very true orange, like the fruit or a sunset, but can use blue magic, and often does when feeling lazy
No eyelights, usually has at least mild bags under his eyes, it’s just his natural state of being
Low energy, even when being bratty or excited he’s more muted than, for example, Rus
Not a huge fan of practical pranks, prefers silly jokes more than anything, loves a good (or bad) pun but doesn’t make them as often as the Sanses
A sweetheart by nature, but he has Anxiety(tm) and it gets the better of him at times
Depression </3
Loves animals, loves kids, disrespects authority but mostly because it’s funny
Will eat almost anything, but all his favorite foods are toddler meals (grilled cheese, pb&j, buttered noodles, chicken nuggets and french fries)
Nicknames. Everyone gets at least one from him, he has a whole plethora for Edge
Loves Edge, loves him so so so much it’s probably unhealthy, they’re probably a little co dependent but shh
Edge
The youngest of all the Papyri (again, not by much, but enough it can be a point of teasing)
Stands at 7’6, perfect back breaking posture, still got that whole soldier strut thing going for him
Broader than the others, sturdy bones, a ton of scars, including most noticeably the damage on the left side of his skull.
His left socket has two large cracks running through it, as well as the top of his jaw where it connects under his cheekbone being damaged, then further back behind it, there is a chunk missing on the bottom left side of the back of his skull with thin cracks spiderwebbed out from it. Not the only damage to his skull but usually the most noticeable.
Can still see out of his left socket, but not well.
Eyelights go out when incredibly distressed or when very calm and content
He has larger, predominant fangs but all of his teeth are sharp
Bright red magic, somewhere between blood and cherry red, very strong, and you’ll never meet a monster with better control over their magic honestly. Also has purple magic that he very rarely uses, and his healing magic is purple, too, though functions differently than the other purple magic. Also also has blue magic, which he doesn’t use very often either
Clingy. Giant clingy man. One of Stretch’s many and most used nicknames for him is teddy bear and that is not without reason
Loves cats, they almost always have a rescue or two to take care of, and he’s very good with animals in general
Purrs, and not discreetly either. Stretch would describe it as sounding like a harley davidson starting up. He’s capable of purring softly, but when he’s just letting it out, Edge’s purr is very loud and very ragged, but it’s full of love <3
Excellent chef, loves cooking and baking and experimenting, has a weird thing about feeding others and not letting food go to waste
Doesn’t sleep. Should, but doesn’t.
Loves Stretch so much it is definitely unhealthy (not in a creepy way, just very co dependent) but that’s okay, frankly he’s just got a lot of love in general, he can’t help it ✌️😔
If you’ve got any questions about their appearances or personalities feel free to hmu! I’ll be tagging things more properly soon so the art tag will also be available for appearance reference (even if I can’t quite captured them exactly as I see them)

WHAT IS CUPPING? DOES IT WORK?
Popular across traditional Chinese, Korean, and Tibetan cultures, Cupping is an alternative form of treatment that has been in practice since ancient times. Its mention is found in Eber's Papyrus, a medical text belonging to 16th century B.C. Egypt. The father of modern medicine Hippocrates Aldo explored this form of therapy at length in his writings.
HOW DOES CUPPING THERAPY WORK?
In this method, some heated cups are used to create suctions in specific parts of the body that require healing. The cup decompresses the tissue and muscle of the area and improves blood circulation. Cupping is done to promote natural healing and relieve inflammation.
Practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine believe that alle ist es cupping stagnation of blood and lymph nodes from the body, thus promoting the flow "qi' or 'life force'. 
BENEFITS OF CUPPING THERAPY 
Cupping therapy is believed to cure a plethora of ailments. It creates a balance between yin and yang in the body or the two extremes of positive and negative. It is also believed to increase resistance to pathogens, get rid of toxins from the body, and naturally heal pain.
HEALS PAIN
Cupping has been linked to reducing pain and inflammation. It can be beneficial in treating pain in areas such as neck, shoulder, back, and knee Cupping can also be used for getting relief from extreme headaches and migraines.
AIDS BLOOD CIRCULATION
Cupping increases blood circulation in the areas where the suction is created. This flow of blood helps in relaxing tensed muscles, aids in cell repair, and minimizes the appearance of cellulite, scars, and stretch marks.
RELEASES TOXINS
The buildup of toxins often causes various diseases in the body. While there is a dedicated mechanism in the body that works constantly to remove toxins from the body, its function gets affected when the body has high levels of toxins. Cupping helpsin eliminating excess toxins through the lymphatic system.
SOOTHES ANXIETY
The gliding movement of the cups across your body stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system. As a result, you feel calm and relaxed during and after the treatment.
TREATS VARICOSE VEINS
Cupping is said to help those suffering from varicose veins. With the help of cupping therapy, it's possible to bring in a fresh flow of blood to the areas where the damaged valves are present.
HEALS CONGESTION
Cupping is known to clear congestion in the body. Diseases such as asthma and pneumonia lead to fluid buildup in the Jungs, leading to respiratory complications. The suction cups clear out the fluid accumulation and create a flow of fresh blood to the lungs. Suction cups are usually placed on the back or the chest to perform this treatment.
DOES CUPPING THERAPY ACTUALLY WORK?
Conducting high-quality research on the effectiveness of cupping is quite difficult, because of a lack of an appropriate placebo comparator. There hasn't been enough research in the realm of cupping. But now that this form of therapy is garnering widespread attention, we hope there will be more research about the efficacy of this ancient treatment, so more people can reap its benefits. It's important to note that cupping is not something new and gimmicky. While the west has just started to explore the benefits of cupping, it's an ancient practice and it's completely safe. People have been using cupping for pain relief and improvement of blood circulation for many years. And for a treatment that has survived centuries after centuries, there has to be some advantage that led to its popularity. The only minor inconvenience could be the temporary discoloration that occurs on the skin because of suction, but they fade away in a couple of days.

Media Evolution and the Changing World: Its Implication to Communication and Education
BLOG ENTRY # 2
Written by: Mariel Angel L. Galagar
What is media
Communication is the foundation of what makes us human, as well as a vital component of our societal structure. It essentially allows us to instill vision while communicating ideas and information to a diverse range of people. And evidently, without media, conversing relevant information which involves news, and our various experiences would indeed be unattainable to share across separate regions and to individuals who reside in distant locations. The media will remain a component of our daily lives through having a huge impact in our nation. 
Media can be classified in divergent ways. In general, media is the plural form of medium, that further refers to any communication method. This includes everything from printed paper to electronic data, along with art, current affairs, educational content, and a wide assortment of many other types of information. Furthermore, according to The Penguin Dictionary of Media Studies, it entails disseminating texts and messages to a large number of individuals while also carrying some intellectual baggage or currency. What's more, in the field of education, the media brings knowledge to a plethora of distinct topics, bringing children and teenagers nearer to a variety of information sources and developing inquisitiveness about what they would like to learn.
In line with this, there are also four different categories of media. First is the Media Modality where it refers to audio, video, graphics, and animation. Next, Media format which talks about being digital or analog. Third, the Ways of Transmitting that specifically means the electromagnetic or the radio waves. And lastly, the Mass Media Form or the TV, radio print Internet, telephone, or mobile. Additionally, because of global connectivity, the relevance of media is increasing daily. As a result, each of us must become cognizant of the media's power since it thus enables us to be skeptical of all the data we get on a regular basis. We, the media users, should further remember that our responsibility is to constructively critique the data we gather so that our perception is not influenced by the interests of others.
Media evolution
Tumblr media
Because the ear is the predominant sense organ during this time, McLuhan refers to the Tribal Age as the first historical era. Because the senses of hearing, touch, taste, and smell were far more fully developed than vision, this period is also known as the acoustic era.  The development of hearing, touching, and scent occurred in the Tribal Age.
According to McLuhan, in an acoustic environment. Hearing visualizes something beyond seeing in the tribal age because it makes you fully aware of your environment. In the period of the tribe, the senses of hearing and smell provide us with a perception of the world we cannot see. The hearing was more significant at this time since it made it possible to be more quickly aware of your surroundings, which was crucial for hunting. Because everyone hears at once, listening to someone in a group becomes a unifying act, strengthening the sense of community. Everything is more immediate, and present, and encourages more passion and spontaneity in this realm of surround sound. By hearing, it was believed during the Tribal Age.
Pre- Industrial Age (Pre -1700)
Tumblr media
Clay tablets (2,400 BC), which were created in ancient Mesopotamia, were in use for more than 3,000 years. Scribes imprinted inscriptions in wet clay using a reed stylus. The tablets were frequently sun-dried and occasionally heated in kilns. In order to preserve them for millennia, documents were frequently kept in libraries.
Papyrus(2500 BC) 
Out of the many uses for Egyptian papyrus was more significant than its use as a writing surface. The majority of these sheets were fashioned and sold as scrolls, while occasionally individual sheets were offered for record keeping and lists. 
Roman Acta Diurna were essentially daily gazettes that contained official notices. They were displayed on message boards in open spaces like the Roman Forum and were carved on stone or metal. They were also known as Acta. During the Roman Republic, Acta originally appeared in its original form around 131 BC.
Tumblr media
People established iron production, created machine tools, harnessed the power of steam, and produced a variety of goods (including books through the printing press) In short, this time period is characterized as the result of utilizing machine power. With the invention of the portable printing press by Johannes Gutenberg, the printing press greatly increased visual dependency.
A typewriter is a mechanical or electronic device used to create characters that resemble the movable type used by printers. Keys on a typewriter push against a ribbon to transfer ink or carbon impressions onto paper. Typically, each key push prints one character.
The term "telephone" was previously used to refer to various innovations before the electric telephone was created, and not all early researchers of the electrical gadget dubbed it a "telephone." John Taylor, a captain, created the telephone in 1844 as a means of communication for sailing ships.
One of the best panoramic cameras of the time was the Cyclographe (right), which could capture 360-degree images. A pointed punch that would strike and therefore mark each new exposure on the roll before it passed in front of a slit at the shutter was part of the flexible telescopic camera.
Electronic Age (1930-1980)
Tumblr media
The electronic era began with the creation of the transistor. Transistors' power was harnessed by humans, which resulted in the transistor radio, electronic circuits, and the first computers. Long-distance communication became increasingly effective in this era.
Among the many advantages for adopting electronic media is the ability to sell oneself as well as other things like businesses, products, and services. The usage of media platforms and networks, as well as social media sites like television and the internet, are just a few of the numerous ways you may take advantage of electronic media to communicate effectively with others. Because franchisees can purchase commercials to be shown to millions of people, television is one of the most popular electronic media devices. This increases revenue for the franchise owner. 
Human emotions can be learned by machines due to the development of artificial intelligence and machine learning. THIS empowers them to do actions like humans would, facilitating production.
Diversity of Society 
The world evolves as people make it happen. Many inventions were made from the past that were modified and were reinvented into more accessible and convenient to use. Today, media is being spread around the world meant to be an outlet of communication to spread information to people. Back then, people had limited resources in the media as a way of communication. They had telegraphs as a communication instrument to transmit information less hassle than hiring someone to send messages or information manually to the person. Today’s generation has the advantage of using media and acquiring information from it as it is available anytime. Moreover, this not only provides information to masses, but it also lets people express themselves through different media modality, format, and form. 
People nowadays use the media to educate people with their knowledge that gives impact to people on the internet. This way, people can also be educated and be the better version of themselves as responsible media users.
 Implication to Communication and Education
Students are more engaged in their education and have a richer experience thanks to media in education. They can further see representations of what they are learning via the usage of media in lesson illustrations, smart TVs and other interactive media. In addition, the media has the ability to inform people concerning both good and awful. Because it has an impact on the mind, ears, and eyes nothing can simultaneously counteract the impact of the media. In a developed society, the media should take a laudable goal of educating people and discouraging contentious, sectarian, and communal trends. Acquiring knowledge is a process called learning which certainly requires effort. Jobs can sometimes lead to learners being irritated and getting disinterested in the class because they are bored. That is within that instance, using media in the teaching-learning process is needed to capture students' interest and make teaching and learning activities more successful. The use of media in the process of teaching and learning is not a new thing because many educators are aware of the value of media.
Overall, bringing students of all ages together to assist them with all types of media, from homework to various research projects, is one of the main benefits of each social networking platform. It is significant to note that the geotagging phenomenon has a fantastic outlook on the future of education because it may be utilized to locate pertinent information about the target and find locations that are being researched. Additionally, social media platforms can help students, as has been demonstrated by researchers in resolving their relationship crises. In fact, the absence of the primary driver of pupils' academic success is now involved. In this instance, social media brings them into direct contact with working along with their teachers to make sure the studying procedure is correctly kept up and conducive for learning.

Both sans and gaster did have to apply to work at the lab though applications back then were petitioning their individual talents to what was then the king and queen, It wasn't that hard since both of them are from a time before the underground (Having been 9 and 5 respectively) when the war came to a close and they were sealed underground. Regardless about how royalty they needed workers, Competent people who could start working towards improving the undergrounds many needs. So age was rarely a consideration.
This really applies very heavily to sans specifically but he needed some way to support his brother and as soon as possible so sans took full advantage of knowing he was smart and used it to very quickly bypass a few grades in whatever schooling monsters had back then established underground and eventually graduated when he was only fifteen (From the monster equivalent of highschool) and got the job at the lab when he was just sixteen meanwhile gaster was a year younger at fifteen (papyrus was six). All of the scientists hired had a plethora of different projects they were working on, but all of them were banded under a common goal of finding some way to break the barrier.
They had to earn their current positions, Sans would have likely become the royal scientist if not for the fact that gaster was more efficient then him in certain regards and didn't have the same obligations sans did tying him down even though both of them were equal lead contributors on the core's creation and development.
----
Tumblr media
As for sans, he will hold his position as the judge until the day he dies, The powers it grants is chosen by a unknown magic that even Asgore has no control over. Nobody knows WHAT qualifies someone to be a judge as it's not limited by magic power, Position or even species, In fact as far as history goes. Sans is the first skeleton to be the judge. The judge is a position of royalty, In some ways it is even higher then the king and queen as the judge holds reign over them all. No matter your lot in life, If you commit heinous enough acts, You will be taken down. Some of which you can read about here.
- Headcannon 1 - Headcannon 2 - Headcannon 3
The magic that makes up the judge's entire existence is considered old magic, Likely a bundle or collection of spells long before the war that while lost to time has continued to do it's duty. He has to be the judge, It is as much instinctual as it is trained, he never wanted the position, he hates the position but you don't have to like it, You don't have to want it. All it boils down to is if it thinks you are qualified. Though i will throw in a few HC's about a judge
- Judge's DO gain LV but it does not affect their soul in the same way. In fact it doesn't affect them at all.
- In sans's alt post game verse, he is the final judge of monster kind as nobody knows IF he'll ever die due to the determination active in his body
- The ability would select someone else in the monster population once Sans is dead. That is the only way for him to rid himself of it if he really wanted to.
- As a result of this, there is only ONE judge in the whole of monster society, there has only ever been one.
