  • You might be interested in this paper by Yvette Running Horse Collin, a doctor in indigenous studies: https://scholarworks.alaska.edu/handle/11122/7592

    Chosen excerpt:

    Although historians generally claim that the Indians of the Southeast first acquired horses in the 1690s from the Spanish, there is written Spanish record of the Southeastern Indians having been seen with horses as early as 1521 in what is now Georgia and the Carolinas. This is particularly interesting as it would have been impossible for the first horses that the Spanish brought to the mainland (what is now Mexico) in 1519 to have escaped unnoticed, “make it” to the Georgia and Carolinas area, and have multiplied in two years’ time.








  • Aujourd’hui, j’ai tenté un jogging avec mon chien. D’habitude, je lui laisse vivre sa vie, se dégourdir les pattes lorsqu’on prends des sentiers peu fréquentés, mais des cas de maladies transmises au chien par le sanglier m’ont rendu un poil parano (surtout que monsieur aime lécher ce qui traine au sol…). Et puisqu’il avait l’air malheureux de devoir suivre mon rythme alors qu’il a ses habitudes, je me suis dis fuck it, on va courir. Et ça s’est étonnamment bien passé pour une première ! Il a tout de suite compris qu’il ne devait pas sprinter et ne devait pas tirer sur sa longe.
    Demain on va retenter l’expérience avec les godasses appropriées pour moi, et une gourde pour le monsieur.





  • Caiman also technically has a nose, I guess, or at least he’s got nostrils.

    Acktshully, he’s got a snout, but technically has a nose because of the guy in his mouth 🤓
    The adaptation is very solid and faithful, it makes good decisions like cutting mostly irrelevant parts and going for a baroque style for the backgrounds instead of the chaotic, nearly organic style of the manga, which is easier to animate. But if you haven’t already, don’t wait for the anime, read it, it gets crazier (and makes sense strangely).
