Who are the sentinelese?

They are the inhabitants of North sentinal Island in the bay of Bengal in the Indian ocean.They are considered to be roughly around or below 500.

They are hunter and gatherers .they mostly use bows and arrows to hunt terrestrial life.they donot have any contact with the world so they are considered to be dangerous.It is report that American tourist had died making contact with the sentinelese .

First people that make contact with the Sentinelese

An Indian merchant ship called the Nineveh ran aground on the reef. 86 passengers and 20 crew managed to swim and splash their way to the beach. They inhabit there for three days before the Sentinelese evidently decided the intruders to chase away the passengers.

Can we make friends with the Sentinelese?

An Indian Anthropologist Trinok Nath Pandit, working under the Indian government, landed on North Sentinel Island. They found only hastily-abandoned huts. The people had fled so quickly that they left the fires still lit outside their homes. Pandit and his team left gifts: bolts of cloth, candy, and plastic buckets ,other then them few other Anthropologist like Madhumala Chattopadhyay also make contact with the Sentinelese.

Semi paraphrased from another post about Crowley’s portrayal in the Good Omens book versus the show. On the importance of hope, even when you don't have optimism.

Crowley as written in the early 1990s called himself an optimist. Crowley in 2023 is very much not an optimist, and I think this reflects what the audience for this story needs now. (And keep in mind, I'm an American writing from my personal, individual American worldview. I'm aware that there are other countries besides America).

The 1990s were a time of optimism in the West. The Cold War was over, the threat of nuclear armageddon was finally lifted, the economy was booming. It was a pre-9/11 and pre-Columbine world, a world in which you didn't have to pass through metal detectors and x-ray scanners to board a plane or enter a government building. Readers in 1990 had reasons to be optimistic in their future.

We in 2023 do not. We live in a very dark timeline. Climate change is barreling down on us, and time is quickly running out to stop it. We've emerged from the wreckage of the War on Terror, and we've realized just how much we were lied to in order to justify 20 years of war. Rent is soaring and wages are stagnant. Income inequality is at historically bad levels. Fascists openly march in the streets and storm our houses of government.

So why would we carry on? Why would Crowley of 2023 carry on? Because he has to. We have to.

Be brave. Do the hard thing. Do it anyway. Do it while not being an optimist in the slightest.

Even in the face of impossible odds.

Especially in the face of impossible odds.

There is nobody coming to save us. All we have left is each other. So we must keep on loving, and keep on living.

All is not lost.

IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder

╰┈➤ “At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you’re living with this illness and functioning at all, it’s something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher

#happy world bipolar day to all my bp babies #(more thoughts at the end of the tags) #shameless #shamelessnet #shamelessedit #ian gallagher #cameron monaghan #*macygifs #bipolar disorder #hello pals how are we doin #i made this gif set in july of 2023 and never posted it because 1) i was terrified to share it and potentially see Bad Takes in the tags #and 2) because my hyperfixation was waning. and while both of those things are still mostly true (the fixation comes and goes) #i feel like it's really important to share as ian's bipolar storyline was not only so vital to his character it was a bit of representation #that isn't often given to the disorder and those (like myself) who live with it every single day #world bipolar day is a day where we can both celebrate ourselves and our resilience and also raise awareness of the reality of the disorder #which is both terrifying and beautiful at its core. this disease is not a death sentence or a sentence to an unfulfilled and miserable life #while there are challenges galore when it comes to balancing life with this disorder it IS possible to live a full and productive life #and i think it's really important to have representation of that in media - and while shameless dropped the ball on a LOT of storylines #over the years THIS is the one they really fucking nailed and i am incredibly grateful #i first started watching shameless while in the midst of a major depressive episode and i was later (finally) diagnosed during an extended #hypo/manic episode - this show and ian's storyline got me through so much and made me feel so seen and validated in my struggles #world bipolar day is also vincent van gogh's birthday (happy birthday buddy) who was posthumously diagnosed with bipolar disorder #and who experienced both depressive and hypo/manic episodes during his lifetime (and was regularly institutionalized) #it takes a lot of help and support to keep us going. it takes the support of our family and friends and *most* of all #it takes patience and kindness and understanding - which is so so so easy to give if you are willing to love and listen #so please. be willing. listen to our stories. be patient with us. show us love without conditions. support us in any way you can. #we are worth it #i promise #anyway. that's really all i wanted to say. happy world bipolar day to those who celebrate (me) and may all of us living with this disorder #go on to live happy fulfilling beautiful magical lives

Peak wizard episode for Adaine, nothing more wizard than inadvertently unleashing the ancient sealed Horrors(TM) because you were so intensely focused on understanding the arcane mystery and then successfully Counterspelling a god.

#dimension 20 #fantasy high #fantasy high spoilers #with a sixth-level spell slot no less! #don't get me wrong; all this is vital wizard enrichment #it is necessary for wizards to break reality and unleash ancient horrors at least once a story arc for their wellbeing #and it is doubly necessary for wizards to come in with a clutch counterspell because that's cool as shit

A thing I think should be included with Ruby’s abandonment/attachment issues when we’re writing her, is that she was a foster sibling to a lot of kids. Like a lot of kids. She has effectively lost so many siblings and playmates and even babies/very young children she’s essentially had a hand in raising. Her entire life has been loving and losing. And for foster kids getting adopted or reunited with their parents under better circumstances, she will basically have been unable to grieve that properly because it’s a good thing they’re gone and they’re supposed to celebrate it. She’s clearly very loving and caring even after a whole life of that, even though each time they leave a piece of her goes with them.

No shit she’s going to end up with some attachment issues. Especially if she considers herself the lucky one, survivor’s guilt, Carla adopted her and none of the others, who have probably expressed that sentiment to her directly and asked why, in the hopes they could stay forever too, or just jealousy - what made you so special?

Foster children/youths in the UK also have to choose themselves to stay in-touch. Foster carers cannot directly contact the child once they have left their care. A “clean slate” approach is preferred. So if the child doesn’t request to get into contact — and sometimes aren’t told they would have to or are discouraged from doing so — that means losing contact immediately and for good. Does that remind you of anything? Sometimes it also happens very quickly - it is far from unheard of for a foster sibling to go to school in the morning and find out the child they’ve been living with for months has gone when they come back in the evening. Even with warning it could still often be only days. I think you could argue 73 Yards has more to do with Ruby’s experience as a foster sibling than being an adoptee.

And of course the continuous loss of loved ones mirrors the Doctor’s experience with their companions fairly often. Another thing that quietly binds them that most other people couldn’t understand.

#ruby sunday #not saying you need to write it explicitly #but that will have been a key factor in her life easily missed #so needs taking into account #to me this whole thing exemplifies why it’s so vital #that we keep exploring these sorts of things #in different ways through different characters with different experiences and opinions #a story and character that resonates less with you #(either by you not being adopted #or even just your different personal views/experiences) #may in fact resonate more with another #(the long term issues a foster sibling especially of high turnover may face #which i genuinely don’t think i’ve ever seen depicted before #outside of autobiographies) etc.

finished watching caitis vod and im glad so many victims are finding the strength and courage to share their stories and im glad that so many of them are speaking out to help others like them find their own voice like when caiti mentioned shelby gave her strength to speak out its bittersweet that these types of stories are coming to light and with such frequency but its also important they are coming out and not left unsaid and these people arent free to live without any consequences or repercussions for the disgusting things they do

#this is why it is so vital and crucial to support victims so they feel safe enough to share their stories and we can all have a safer #community for our creators and for our communities

Robbie Taylor Hunt will probably go mostly under the radar but he needs and deserves all the props and praise for his work on Red white and royal blue.

intimacy coordinators deserve so much credit and he did an outstanding job with this film!!!

#the hands - all the work with the hands 🫠🫠🫠 #there really should be an intimacy coordinator Oscar/Emmy/bafta etc because their work is soooo vital #telling queer love stories with care and beauty #intimacy coordinator #under rated job #rwrb #rwrb movie #red white and royal blue

i think that tlt fic writers (myself included) are sleeping on matthias nonius. i think we should be making more use of him! walk w me for a second, okay? this bitch became a name that readers associated with groaning and complaining and "boring" verse - only for him to come out swinging when he actually hit the page, thereby rending us all asunder. he saved the fucking day, against all odds, and he did it while speaking in meter!!! is that not sick as hell? is that not actually fucking hilarious?? this man is so powerful, he's so cool, he's got immense swag, and i think that if you play it right, having nonius fix whatever plot drama you have going oddly makes sense (the way it did in htn). using deus ex nonius in your fics is an option, and i think we could all benefit from it

#tlt #the locked tomb #my post #fuck off lou #htn #harrow the ninth #matthias nonius #i love minor characters who play a small but vital role in the story and get forgotten by fans #honestly i fully understand where ortus was coming from #if all MY friends died and i was stuck on the dreariest planet w the worst birthright #i too would bury myself in writing ancient hometown hero rpf #especially if that ancient hometown hero was nonius #(i just probably wouldnt do it in verse but hey who am i to judge) #im normal abt this guy #and i would like to see him featured in fics as more than ortus' boyfriend

Version without ORV

#debut or die #lcf #lotm #orv #rotbb #scir #tged #<-ik it technically has romance but whatever. the guidelines in my heart are 'things I can be aroace about' & it applies #also I don't think it's that vital to the story? could be wrong. #mini polls #not a tournament #queue #my polls

like that's what always drives me nuts more than anything re: thg movies/online discussions about them. katniss was brown! gale was brown! the poor people of district 12 were brown and indigenous coded while the ppl with a middle class background like peeta and katniss's mom were white and blonde. that context is vital to understanding the story and it's just completely gone in the movies

#gale and katniss hunting together was them trying to reconnect w indigenous practices that had been outlawed #d12 and d11 were racially segregated societiws #rue's district was racially segregated poor black people working for a white upper class and d12 was segregated poor indigenous ppl #katniss as a character cant be separated from her brownness #haymitch as a character changes when u consider he was also indigenous iirc #like this stuff is vital to the context of the story
