@kastortheunstuckable said: How would Huracan ring in a new year? Could they do ball drops underwater before?

the empire tried and failed to make their own calendar so out of bitterness they just don’t give a shit. and tiana’s human settlement is poor and far from the city so they just have homemade fireworks, so no ball. but it’s still nice.

one of my neighbors is an astronomer. When I met him, I made a joke about mixing up astronomy and astrology only to find he was really into astrology as well and I learned much that day

so much of astronomy was originally developed for the purpose of astrology - if it wasn’t for astrology, it probably would have taken us a lot longer to figure out that the solar system was heliocentric, because there would have been less interest in taking these precise measurements of the heavens and fitting them to mathematical models. the leap of “holy shit, all these wacky back-and-forth orbits become simple ellipses when you consider everything orbiting the sun” was a lot easier to make when so many people were already staring at the wacky back-and-forth orbits all day.

on the flip side, it’s now really unintuitive for modern people to understand the logic behind astrology, because we’re trained in a heliocentric model from childhood. the concept “mercury in retrograde” sounds kind of silly, because what the fuck, mercury doesn’t decide to just orbit backwards every so often. you have to perform this mental change-of-basis from “super simple ellipse land” to “wacky back and forth land” to reconcile the models, which can be pretty fun when you get the hang of it.

Finally, is there anything you're hoping to get most this year?

Not really, I basically asked for a vacation and that’s gonna happen so I’m pretty excited for that! My mom gave me a hint (mainly because she realized yesterday while we were out together that neither my dad or her had actually BOUGHT the present lol) and it has to do with my cats so??? I have no clue??? But I’m excited!

MEGA-ASK: What's a food that reminds you of childhood? What's your favourite outdoor setting? Are you more interested by the seas or stars? Last musical you saw? How many pets have you had in your life? What kind of art do you relate to best? Are you a heat sink, or a heat generator kind of person? What language interests you most? Finally, what's your favourite pastime?

Popovers, are as I like to called them Pop-os. In the forest at daybreak; I really like the smell. The stars because the sea and things in it scares me. Twisted; we were showing it to a friend. Six I think?? Art nouveau. Heat sink?? Japanese; I invested like 4 years into it though recently I’ve been looking at Myaamia because heritage. Idk uhh writing I guess. I never share anything I write though.
