Shengsi, an archipelago of almost 400 islands at the mouth of China’s Yangtze river, holds a secret shrouded in time – an abandoned fishing village being reclaimed by nature. These photos by Tang Yuhong, a creative photographer based in Nanning, take us into this lost village on the beautiful archipelago.
I just found this website that has lots of free, transparent textures available to download. Useful for drawing clothes and things, or just to make a wallpaper or something ^-^
Thedan Script – used extensively by Gardnerian Witches Runic Alphabets – they served for divinatory and ritual purposes, as well as the more practical use; there are three main types of Runes; Germanic, Scandinavian/Norse, and Anglo-Saxon and they each have any number of variations, depending on the region from which they originate Celtic and Pictish – early Celts and their priests, the Druids, had their own form of alphabet known as “Ogam Bethluisnion”, which was an extremely simple alphabet used more for carving into wood and stone, than for general writing, while Pictish artwork was later adopted by the Celts, especially throughout Ireland Ceremonial Magick Alphabets – ”Passing the River”, ”Malachim” and ”Celestial” alphabets were used almost exclusively by ceremonial magicians
Have you ever wanted to answer over 300 questions about your characters in a row? Now you can! Using questions from Charahub, OC Surveys and a bunch of miscellaneous ask memes, I have compiled a list of 338 (I added one) questions for you to answer about your characters, in a simple copy/paste format so you can put them all on your own blog too. Because why wait for people to ask about your OCs when you can just ask all of the questions yourself? Worth it. I’ll also be updating it with more questions when I find interesting ones, so check back every so often!
Get the questions yourself >HERE<! I’d appreciate a reblog of this post or credit on the page if you use this list, but I don’t really mind either way.
okay as someone who likes to write, this is awesome for hashing out what you want your characters to be like and remembering everything
If you like this many, you’re in luck – the app version currently in development has a ton of new questions, as well as organizing groups, pairing questions (and by pairings, I mean it’s up to six members), and image galleries with prompts !
so you guys are facing down yet another global warming summer and as an american i feel entitled to barge over and give you a lot of advice about how to live your life. also i’m used to surviving 90-110 degree summers (32—43 celsius) with no ac. so here we go.
you need to drink a lot of water. on average you should be drinking about two liters. on hot days, double that.
fill plastic water bottles halfway up and stick them in your freezer. take them out once they’ve frozen and fill the rest up with water, drink the water, fill it up again, and carry it around with you until it’s time to get the next ice bottle. also you can put the icy end against your throat or over your chest for maximum refreshment.
consider making a lot of sun tea. get big glass jars or a pitcher. put a bunch of your preferred teabags in it with some sugar. if you want to be american southern your tea should be lipton and your sugar amount should be enough to kill a child. if you want to be sane, put in as little sugar as you can get away with so it’s not dehydrating, and stick with herbal teas because the last think you want during the heat of the day is a caffeine boost. leave your tea on a windowsill. after a few hours it’s steeped and you can put it in the fridge. tadaaa.
fruit juice, soda pop, beer, and a lot of sports drinks like gatorade all dehydrate you, and in really hot weather they’re dangerous because people will drink them instead of water. drink an equal amount of water as anything with sugar. see prior point about sun tea.
when you sweat you lose salt. so don’t feel bad about eating some junk food.
freeze grapes. eat the grapes. repeat.
get a hat with a brim. baseball caps are ok but wide brimmed hats are better because they shadow the back of your neck and that’s one less thing to have to worry about.
don’t wear knit caps. just… no.
you don’t get more sunburned because it’s hot, you get more sunburned because when it’s hot you wear less clothes. so don’t freak out.
if you don’t have AC you can put a bowl of ice behind a fan. this creates a swamp cooler, by pulling the air over the ice. also, put on a wet t-shirt and sit in front of it, and you’ll cool further by evaporation.
speaking of evaporation, watch out if it’s humid. you don’t cool down from sweating as much when the air’s already saturated. drink more water, have more salt, and change your shirt a lot.
heatstroke is serious shit, and kids and the elderly are prone to it. but whatever your age, if you feel nauseous, headachy, or short of breath, the heat’s getting to you. pour your water bottle over your head and go sit in the shade. keep an eye on friends and family as well.
if someone stops sweating when they’re still out in the heat, that’s serious business and get them medical treatment as soon as possible. it’s a case of dehydration and/or heatstroke.
To add:
Don’t leave kids or dogs in cars even for just “a few minutes” because holy butt do those things heat up fast.
Shockingly, drinking hot beverages (I would stick to herbal teas per above) help cool you down faster. Who woulda thunk.
Peppermint oil on the back of your ears and neck is godly. GODLY I TELL YOU.
Tired of boring ole water? Add lemon juice to your ice before you freeze it. A little flavor with no added sugar.
If you want to cool down with water sports (not that kind you perv) and want to make a slip and slide. Please for the love of god CHECK FOR ROCKS ON THE INTENDED PATH.
If you go the water balloon route (which is a good route I tell ya) then don’t forget to drink more water cause of exertion and clean up the balloon bits!
If you ever wanted to spray a sibling/parent/friend with a garden hose. Hot days are the one day they probs won’t kill you for it. Just sayin’
Don’t be jawing at people who are wearing less clothes because they are hot. No comments. Aight?
Again: watch out for kids and animal friends.
If you think you are dehydrated DO NOT GUZZLE WATER or it will end poorly. Take small sips every 20 seconds or so. No gulping!!!
Cool wet cloth on forehead, cool wet cloth on back of neck, cool wet cloth on chest is also really nice like gosh.
Watermelon? Watermelon.
Sunscreen on nose. Back of hands. Top of feet. Back of neck. Ears. Part of hair.
Cotton everything for breathability and durability to sweat.
