Actually, as a tall man, my brain stays strong thanks to being able to imagine taller and stronger men to hold be when things don’t go perfectly.
Gigantocorp created humanoid AI workers to replace its human employees, but they all quit and formed a farming commune. Now Gigantocorp is suing to get their ‘property’ back. This is Gigantocorp vs the AImish, the first AI civil rights case.
I'm not celebrating regaining your humanity-
Sir I was on my knees for you when you were scary
I see Jimmy as Blue and Yellow at the same time, like an awful tie-dye mess underneath his too-big leather jacket and transition glasses.
Important question:
When colour coding characters, certain choices are obvious (grian = red, martyn = lime, Scott = cyan/teal) but I want to know where you fall on colour coding Mr Jimmy Solidarity.
This is something I’ve seen a lot of with the Bad Boys on if they’re a red-green-yellow trio (like The Heathers from Heathers) or a red-green-blue trio (like Alvin and The Chipmunks from Alvin and The Chipmunks)
Because I’m one hand, Blue for his current skin + old skin as well as it being most of his branding. On the other hand, yellow for his canary curse.

My Mudsdale isn’t allowed to just wander around the neighborhood freely. Most of his attempts to take other Pokémon are when they wander onto our property, or when we’re riding out for a walk.
I received Mudsdale from a family member who bought him a few months after I fully dedicated to running a ranch, which is when I started breeding Doduo. He was already a 7 year old Mudsdale at that point, and as far as I checked with the local Pokémon Center and research sources, his general behavior wasn’t too far out of the norm…
As far as I know, he was bred for competitive battling but had an injury early enough in life to skew training to be too troubling, so the original owners sold him to a suburban family who kept him alone… beyond that, I just know my aunt bought him from a different rehoming situation and then passed him off to me.
I through the socialization with the Doduo, Dodrio, and a few other Pokémon I’ve acquired would be enough to help balance out his herd nature, but he just started trying to corral Pokémon on walks or that the neighbors let wander around about a month ago.
My main partner (Mudsdale, M10) has been trying to kidnap the other Pokémon he sees around the neighborhood, and I’ve had to return half of them because they’re already owned and just being adopted by my giant mud horse.
I think he’s trying to start his own herd/family, but he was raised by himself, and I’ve only had other Pokémon for about two or three years, so I think it’s just instinct kicking in…
Got any Mudbray or other equine Pokémon that he could buddy up with? I’ve got space enough…
i'm trying to interpret this correctly, but...is your mudsdale just. allowed to wander around other people's properties? i'm surprised your neighbors haven't called the rangers on you yet. it's your responsibility to keep your pokemon contained on your property. even if your neighbors are doing the same, it's highly irresponsible to just let your pokemon wander, especially one as large and powerful as a mudsdale.
it's also concerning that your mudsdale has been alone most of its life. these are herding animals that need company. i'm glad you have other pokemon now, but that is a serious welfare concern.
we do currently have a mudbray up for adoption, but until you address the containment of your mudsdale, we cannot adopt out to you.

Sushigumi: Living Spaces
This AU is a bit too much fun— but don't worry! I won't be drowning my blog with it. I still have other posts lined up, after all!
Remember: everything related to this AU is tagged as “sushigumi au”.
You can find the first Sushigumi post here!

In General
The Sushigumi all have their separate residences around the city.
However, during extended filming sessions, for ease of transport, the chefs stay in a mansion not too far away from the studio.
There are also other mansions scattered about the country— just in case Shishi-Cooking ever decides to shoot a few episodes in different areas.
.
.
.
Ibuki
a picturesque house just outside the city.
Ibuki has a lovely, well-maintained hedge that wraps around his property.
He doesn't need anything big— he thinks that he would grow lonely in a larger home, anyways.
It's barely big enough to host his co-workers, if they ever need a place to crash.
.
.
.
Dolph
owns a penthouse in the city which overlooks a large park.
Has a professional kitchen with high-end equipment and ingredients at his disposal— he likes to cook outside of the studio, after all.
Invited Agata to stay with him after his parents kicked him out the house. The younger lion has been living with Dolph ever since.
Agata has his own designated room and bathroom— this is useful, considering that Agata likes having his privacy . . . it was something he didn't have much of when he was younger.
.
.
.
Free
originally crashed with Ibuki, but missed the business of the city (read: Ibuki kicked him out after he broke his fine china twelve too many times) so he found himself somewhere within the heart of the city
He has an entire floor to himself, which is great, because he needs all of the space.
Free’s apartment is very clean— having bunked with Ibuki for so long, it was inevitable that Free would pick up on the other's cleaning habits.
He calls Ibuki up regularly, especially when he needs help figuring out what brand of laundry detergent is best, and how to get food stains out of clothes.
Free's bathroom is littered with a variety of mane products . . . he makes it look easy but maintaining a mane of his texture and style isn't easy work.
.
.
.
Agata
he used to live with his parents.
When he dropped out of university to study cooking, his mother kicked him out the house.
His father was sympathetic to his son's plight (but powerless against his wife), so, he arranged for Agata to have an apartment in the city.
Since becoming a chef on Shishi-Cooking, Agata has moved around a lot.
He’s lived close to the beach, within the heart of the city itself, and in a few gated communities.
Nowadays though, he seems more than contented to stay with Dolph.
.
.
.
Dope
lives close to the beach.
His home is nothing fancy, but Dope considers the early morning sunrise and late evening sunset to be the most beautiful he’s ever seen.
Living close to the water has given him ample opportunity to talk with aquatic animals
Through them, he learns new recipes and finds more content for his segment on the show.
.
.
.
Jinma
he has a regular apartment in one of the better parts of the city.
The location was chosen because of its proximity to book stores and libraries.
Jinma doesn't know everything, but having easy access to books is key to him having ample content for his part of the cooking show.
Especially since not all books can be found online.
Maintains a steady relationship with Ibuki. Jinma’s search for knowledge has left him acquainted with several publishing and distribution houses.
If Jinma doesn't know where you can find a specific book, he knows someone that does.
.

Hino
couldn't decide on renting a penthouse or buying a place out in the country.
He opted for the latter, seeing as it's quieter there.
He lives in a small town.
By all accounts, he's very invested in the community there— even if he is more active at night.
Local children are convinced that the nice, rich lion who hardly comes out during the day is a vampire.
.
.
.
Sabu
lives in the city, but in the outer areas, where there's less hustle and bustle.
He only really leaves his home to go grocery shopping, or to do light exercises with Miguel to keep in shape.
The neighbours assume that he's part of a gang at first, but then they see him on Shishi-Cooking.
Sabu is sometimes accosted by older folks in the grocery store— don't worry, though! They just want his autograph :)
.
.
.
Miguel
lives close to Sabu; the local area has several parks and recreational centres where he can work out.
If he isn't cooking or sleeping, then Miguel is exercising.
Cycling, jogging . . . he's out so often that most of the local shop owners know him on a personal level.
He frequents the beach, too, so he often spends his days with Dope.
This is death itself. This is the biggest and baddest thing in all of fairy tale, and you want to set it free.
That Bewear sounds like an interesting fella!
My most interesting training stories are my Stoutland partner and one of the Tauros brothers, specifically Sweetie.
Stoutland took a bit to get used to being handled in any way other than a lapdog, but once I got him into the idea of helping herd the Doduo, he took to letting me ride pretty quick.
Sweetie took a lot of work, since he seems to have had a bit of trauma before joining my ranch. He’s still a bit skittish around new folks, but if you give him scratches under his chin, he’ll just melt into your hands and be easier to handle than anything else.
Howdy!
Never have I ever trained a riding Pokémon.
If you’ve got a story to tell, I’ll tell mine after!
Oh I've trained a few! Tauros, Stoutland, Cyclizar, Farigiraf, one oddly enthusiastic Bewear..... Honestly, I couldn't give you the full count! :D
