I remember watching on Youtube a video about a rewritten version of Sonic forces, where Tails invented the weapons named wispons (which makes sense to me since he is the most out all Sonic's friends to get back easily to places he's been) and in my point of view Forces don't necessarily really happens it was just a way for fans to be there with the others throught the avatar but in an animated series/movie Tails invents those after frontiers maybe.

A little comedic scene with Sonic & Shadow in Bluey's world, has anyone else thought about Bluey imitating Maria Robotnik because of their dress and fur color?

Inspired by another comic there are 4 variants of Sonic & Shadow catching up with each other, can you guess how their dialogues would get?

Intersexed males lacking a scrotum or testes sometimes develop what are known as VELERICORN antlers, which are covered in velvet and festooned with various ridges and knobs; such antlers are permanent, unlike regular antlers, which are shed and regrown each season. Other males – sometimes known as PERUKES – have elaborate, misshapen antlers covered with baroque nodule-like growths. Occasionally, females develop antlers, which may be single; spiked (without branches); covered in velvet; or lacking the flat, palmate structure typical of male Moose antlers.

One cannot discuss the Georgian Era without mentioning powdered wigs. Powdered wigs, sometimes called perukes, were worn by men and women during the Georgian Era. The sizes and styles varied, depending on a variety of factors (social status, location, year).

Nowadays, the majority of people that know of powdered wigs are not fond of them in the slightest. They’ve been called ugly, weird, and plenty of other rude terms. Wigs are typically worn by women now, and they are very different in appearance to the peruke. Bright and unnatural colored wigs are the most popular now, contrary to the shades of white and natural colors that were worn in the 18th century.

My hypothesis as to why we now view powdered wigs so negatively is that they were often worn by men, they were curled in a unique way, and they usually work with a ribbon in a ponytail. The most common hairstyle you’ll see on a man now is short, there are many ways that short hair can look and be styled, but long hair on men is not as common as it once was. We are no longer used to seeing men in somewhat “feminine” attire, and when we do (as a society) we judge them for it.

It is my hope that powdered wigs will eventually be viewed in a more positive light, and hopefully even be seen as fashionable once again.
