Just takin' a bath
First handling session with baby buttmad! Heâs so TINY, and BEAUTIFUL⊠and so very angry. (I wore gloves because Iâm a huge wuss. I know theyâre not ideal. Weâre both getting used to each other.)
If itâs any consolation, Dante was a bitey little shit for a long time. Then one day it was like a flip switched (I did handle him frequently, just hung out with him w/ my hand next to him) and he was suddenly this sweet little thing that didnât want to bite. He was around 10 months old I think is when it happened. Even when I somehow manage to upset him now, he never really bites. Iâve only gotten tagged since then because I was stupid and didnât realize my hand was too far up the tongs during feeding.
Where do you guys get those ladder things? Â I need some!
They have them in PetCo by the bird stuff

So, letâs talk color wheel. On a whim, omori-fr and I decided to take a stab at the daunting task of revamping the Flight Rising color list and our results are above. Itâs broken up here on tumblr and should be read in columns, or you can see the full image here.
We rearranged the colors into what we consider a more intuitive spectrum, adding colors where smoother transitions were needed (these new colors are marked with asterisks*) and subtracting a couple that didnât fit anywhere. We also occasionally renamed a color when we thought the name would fit better somewhere else (these are marked with old name â> new name.)
This was a lot of fun, but also very difficult, so major props to the FR team for creating and arranging all these colors in the first place! So weâre clear, this is not a suggestion for rearranging the color wheel and we arenât trying to start a discussion about the pros and cons actually changing the current set up. This was a fun re-imagining that we did to see what we could come up with. Now, if any of these did ever get implemented, we certainly wouldnât complain. Itâd sure mess up a lot of our established breeding pairs, but just look at some of those new colors ;)
Notes:
We tried not to remove too many colors, but in the end we did have to subtract tomato and goldenrod from the final cut. In every arrangement we tried, tomato ended up next to red (renamed scarlet) and we found that the colors were almost indistinguishable, so we omitted the less popular one. Apologies to goldenrod fans, but we found it sticking out everywhere we put it and because itâs one of the least liked colors, we decided it was safe to remove. The transition between lemon, spring, and (new) leaf went a lot better once goldenrod was out of the picture.
Colors were renamed only when we thought a different color would fit the name better (excluding rust, which we renamed tawny just because.) Leaf is actually leaf colored and sand is actually sand-colored in this version; the original colors are renamed lime and caramel respectively, because those names seem to fit better in our opinion.
Our version isnât without flaws; there are some colors that still stick out, but we tried our best. We think we came up with a great solution to a lot of common complaints weâve seen about the current color wheel and in the process weâve added some amazing new colors that would look incredible on our dragons!
Weâd love to see other peopleâs interpretations! Give us feedback on this one or make your own and tag it #frcolorwheel and maybe we can start a trend of users adding their own re-imaginings and ideas :)
JUST LOOK AT THE COLOURS
Iâd be fine with this only if Goldenrod and Tomato werenât removed. Iâm a huge fan of both. Spring is not Goldenrod. D:
Oh my god please please please please
PEACH. <3
I really like both tomato and goldenrodâŠ. whoops.
cocoa more like YES PLEASE
This would be absolutely perfect.. if not for the exclusion of Goldenrod. Goldenrod is the PERFECT Lightweaver primary color, despite what her profile says.
get yer mitts off my GOLDENROD
Still no yellow XD
Big Ideas
They say that âConfronting triggers, not avoiding them, is the best way to overcome PTSDâ. They point out that âexposure therapyâ is the best treatment for trauma survivors, including rape victims. And that this involves reliving the trauma and exposing yourself to traumatic stimuli, exactly what trigger warnings are intended to prevent. All this is true. But I feel like they are missing a very important point. YOU DO NOT GIVE PSYCHOTHERAPY TO PEOPLE WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT. Psychotherapists treat arachnophobia with exposure therapy, too. They expose people first to cute, little spiders behind a glass cage. Then bigger spiders. Then they take them out of the cage. Finally, in a carefully controlled environment with their very supportive therapist standing by, they make people experience their worst fear, like having a big tarantula crawl all over them. It usually works pretty well. Finding an arachnophobic person, and throwing a bucket full of tarantulas at them while shouting âIâM HELPING! IâM HELPING!â works less well. And this seems to be the arachnophobeâs equivalent of the PTSD âadviceâ in the Pacific Standard. There are two problems with its approach. The first is that it avoids the carefully controlled, anxiety-minimizing setup of psychotherapy. The second is that YOU DO NOT GIVE PSYCHOTHERAPY TO PEOPLE WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT.

So, I posted it on facebook with this:
Okay, I have to say, this article SERIOUSLY pissed me off. As I sit here in my high-waisted shorts feeling pretty darn good about my body and myslef while wearing them and read...
High waisted shorts usually have pockets and are therefore awesome.
Some of my contributions to the #YesAllWomen movement. Itâs time for this shit to come to an end.
Iâve been reading a lot of #yesallwomen the last few days. It has been very eye opening. I thought that a lot of the things that I see and do were just me. Now I realize that weâre all afraid. I am not alone. While it is very sad, I am not the only one who has had horrible things happen to me....
