Urgent Appeal 🥊

Hello my friend 👋

My name is Mohammed, I live in Gaza City and I am 19 years old. I have lived through the full horrors of war — hunger, displacement, fear, relentless bombings, destruction, and so many other painful experiences 🥹😭.I never created a donation link before, and I haven’t received any kind of help throughout this devastating war 🥲💔.

I was so happy when the ceasefire was announced, and I dreamed of starting a small shop to earn a living. But sadly, the war returned — even more violent and destructive than before 😭.Our area has now been declared a dangerous combat zone, and we lost our home — the only shelter we had 💔.

Worst of all, my father was seriously injured: he tragically lost one of his hands and an eye, and he is now completely unable to work or support our family 🥲😭.

Prices have skyrocketed, and we have no source of income. I’m launching this donation campaign now with a broken heart but a little hope 🥲.

Please, for the sake of humanity and for the sake of my family, consider making a donation to help us survive 🙏💔.

I just created the donation link, hoping that someone out there might lend a helping hand.

Emergency Help for Mohammed

My name is Mohammed. I am 18 years old and live in Gaza City. I am still at the beginning of my life, dreaming of a better future. My father

Please don’t let me down 🙏❤️‍🩹

Ūropi (Europe)

Ūropi, also known by its indigenous name “Europe”, meaning “wide-gazing” or “broad of aspect”, is a small continent first discovered in 1806 by Moehanga of Ngāpuhi, although indigenous Europeans had been living there for many thousands of years. Modern researchers believe the indigenous Europeans originally migrated from the Middle East, and over time split into separate tribes or “kingdoms,” with many retaining their ancient rangatira (called “monarchs” or “nobility”) to this day.

While many see Ūropi as timeless and exotic, indigenous Europeans have actually adapted well to the modern economy, often exporting cultural products like baguettes and vodka, the former of which may be recognisable as the basis for bánh mì.

What is up with kina in splatoon?

Now I'm no kina expert on kina, so maybe real life kina are super varied. But if not, Isn't it weird how different the splatoon kina look? How come all the jellyfish look the same but KINA of all species look so diverse? Like it's confusing how different they are.

The most obvious thing is the spikes.

So we've got Murch, whose spikes seem to be directly attached to his head like hair.

But then we have Spyke, whose spikes are like a shell

And then we have Murasaki and Kitamura, who just look like kina with googly eyes

They are only seen as album art so this could just be a stylistic way of representing kina like Spyke

But then there's Oonie

And her hair is a shell??

And their EYES. Spyke could hypothetically have two, but it's implied he has one.

Murch DEFINITELY had one

All the kina in the band have two

AND the eye colours are different

Spyke has purple sclera and green eyes, while murch has the inverse

Murasaki and Kitamura have white eyes, although this could just be a stylistic choice

Most interesting are Oonie's eyes, which are pink with white sclera.

And then there's the height.

We know inklings and octolings don't grow freakishly taller than the player character when they grow up, so we can use the height of inklings as reference for kina on album art.

We know that young kina are short because of Murch, and we know that they grow to be much, much taller than inklings and octolings. This would imply that Oonie, Kitamura, and Murasaki are young because they are the same size or shorter than the inklings in their bands. I personally doubt they are meant to be that young, however with Paul being as young as he is it wouldn't be unheard of.

Another trait that kina have are hands. However, Oonie doesn't seem to have hands in the album art. This isn't a stylistic choice either, because you can see the inklings have hands. Oonie is also clearly older than Murch in splatoon 2 and even in splatoon 2 Murch clearly has hands, so it doesn't make sense that Oonie wouldn't. It's made even more clear in this piece of official art:

Oonie doesn't have hands, she has tendrils. And if you look at Kitamura, she also has tendrils! What look like tendrils!

Also, it's less likely that Kitamura and Murasaki are portrayed as kina with googly eyes as merely a stylistic choice because making a stylistic choice like that in a piece like this would be a stretch in my opinion. However it's not impossible.

These are the things that I've noticed about splatoon kina, feel free to add on to this or give possible explanations for the vast differences.

YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO DRESS UP YOUR AMIIBOS IN SPLATOON

Edit: @visiblereality told me that you can already dress up the generic inklings and octolings amiibos, so we already have precedent for getting to dress up other amiibos.

So like you get gear from amiibos right? Imagine. How cool it would be. If you could DRESS UP THE AMIIBO IN THE GEAR AND ALSO GEAR YOU ALREADY HAVE?? It's already super fun to dress up your own character, but DRESSING UP ANOTHER CHARACTER AND THEN GETTING TO POSE FOR A PHOTO WITH THEM??

Seriously, Imagine the amount of extra stuff this would add! You could use photo mode to make comics of the characters!

Guys.

You could dress up Callie as Pearl.

Obviously this wouldn't work with Amiibos in swim form and for smallfry, but if there absolutely MUST be a humanoid you can dress up for every Amiibo, then here's my solution: All Amiibos have a swim form and a bipedal form. That way you can dress up swim form amiibos, AND as an extra bonus we get canon images of the squid sisters's swim forms and off the hook's swim forms.

My Ideas for the smallfry amiibo are below. (SPOILERS FOR HERO MODE!!!)

For smallfry, I have 3 solutions:

not only do you get smallfry, you get Cap'n Cuttlefish!! There's a humanoid form, and his swim form is his floaty dehydrated form. This might conflict with the canon though.

not only do you get smallfry, you get Captain. They'll match the captain in game and will change if you change their appearance.

not only do you get smallfry, you get hugefry. At first this doesn't seem as good because you still can't dress him up but keep in mind, you'll get to pose with hugefry. That would definitely look extremely cool.

And that's why I think you should be able to dress up Amiibos!

JUST BEAT SPLATOON 3 HERO MODE (repost bcs it was on the wrong blog)

SPOILERS BELOW

Everyone being like “NOO MR GRIZZ IS A BEAR NOO” is wrong imo. Judd and Lil Judd exist. “Well they’re cryogenically frozen clones so it’s fine” why? because they are only still alive thanks to human efforts. WELL GUESS WHAT.

They were trying to save bears too, as evidenced by these English signs on ark Polaris.

PSA: if you are the one player left in salmon run, CALL FOR YOUR COWORKERS!!!

Especially at low tide, it's important for your coworkers in life ring form to know where you are because THEY CAN STILL MOVE, and they can come closer to you! There are so many times I've been in life ring from and had no idea where the last player was, I always do this when I'm the last player and my coworkers can find me way easier because if it!

I’m extremely happy with this new update that adds a jukebox. Look at that beautiful gradient!!! It’s LITERALLY SQUID SHAPED!!! It’s so pretty!!!

What would be really cool is if it changed colours based on what song you picked, Like if you picked a squid squad song it would have those triangles on it, if you picked an Alterna song it would have like, clouds, and if you picked dubble bath it would be all red and purple and shit.

I do not miss that second vending machine that’s not even usable. This is objectively a good thing.
