The second one especially hurts because that's a "therapy" I've been through.

Quick Ian’s Shiny Hunting Corner, random shiny Zizagoon while setting up my Ralts hunt?? I don’t have one, so happy to take it!!

[thefantastician]

Phase 2 for Shiny Ralts, a POOCHYENA! Luckily Yellow is level 4, so I can use it during my hunt (using a repel trick to increase Ralts encounters)

[thefantastician]

Phase 3 for shiny Ralts, another Poochyena! He’s lucky his shiny is really good

[thefantastician]

Phase 4 for shiny Ralts, another Zigzagoon. I completed the line at least, that’s pretty fun!

[thefantastician]

Phase 5 for shiny Ralts, a Wurmple, BUT THE GAME FROZE!! I was fiddling with the console trying to get a good picture angle aldjkfjdla The only thing I could think to do was save state (a feature of the analogue pocket!), but the save state just leads to a crashed game LMAO

[thefantastician]

Don’t you worry, I’ve still been grinding for shiny Ralts 😇 I found two Wurmple since failing the last one (both evolve into Cascoon/Dustox) making them Phase 6 and 7

On February 7th, 2026 I found another Lotad to complete Phase 16

Things were dire. Thousands prayed for a miracle.

Until Sunday, June 7th, 2026 while watching my wife play ‘Cast n Chill’

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

[lakemojave]

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

[lakemojave]

Tumblr users will see you complain about misogyny and be ok with not liking dogs and go into your inbox and misgender you

When the AI bubble pops, the demand for computing power will fall much more quickly than the supply. For a brief window, we will have an amazing digital surplus.

For deer, "bonehead" is a compliment. Use this to build reputation within cervine factions.

The Guts of Predatory Cats Can Destroy CWD Prions

The prions that cause chronic wasting disease in deer are nearly indestructible. So it's good news to learn cat guts are their mortal enemy.

Okay. So. You know how some people want to finish exterminating all large predatory mammals so they have less competition for deer and so they don't occasionally lose livestock? And you know how native deer species in North America have been hit increasingly hard with Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in the past couple of decades due to overpopulation thanks to the eradication of large predatory mammals that normally keep them in check?

We already have evidence that reintroducing predatory mammals to their native ranges not only knocks deer populations back to a healthier level, and now we've discovered that apparently the digestive systems of cougars and bobcats are lethal to CWD prions. Prions are among the most difficult pathogens* to eliminate; you have to heat them up to about 1,800 degrees F in order to thoroughly destroy them. And prion diseases like CWD are almost universally fatal.

So to find that these wild cats can safely eat CWD-infected animals AND significantly reduce the chances that the prions will be spread to other deer is a pretty big deal, especially since some other animals like coyotes and crows do pass prions undamaged through their digestive systems. And it's just one more example of why an ecosystem needs all of the species that have evolved in it over thousands of years, not just those are convenient for humans to have around. The spread of CWD is directly related to the overpopulation of deer, and it's likely that continuing to reintroduce large predatory mammals to their native range will help quell this awful prion disease.

I absolutely blame Facebook for this shift. Words cannot describe how freaking WEIRD it was in the mid-00s when there was suddenly this popular website where you were required to use your real, brickspace name and encouraged to post photos of yourself. Every single bit of Standard Internet Safety prior to then said that you should never ever ever do either of those.
