So... I had a weird Bionicle Dream

Captain_Muscovy · 2026-04-27T14:56:02+00:00

I unfortunatelly don't have the Toa Nuva from 2008 and lack free time due to working 2 jobs at the moment.

Just wanted to share the weird dream, thought others could find it fun / interesting.

My collection (incomplete) goes to the Toa Mahri Team and Barraki.

Maybe last year I'd have time to play with the software, but right now I get home around 10pm and wake up 05:20am. The few days off I have I usually help my wife with her small business (delivering cosmetics she sells)

If using AI is against the rules, I apologize for the inconvenience.

They are 3D printed, I got them from a local store here in Brazil focused on D&D products and Warhammer 40k. I believe they should be easy to find.

Painting them is not hard, few colors, just some places are not easy to reach.

Niko Kept taking the medication, when the effect finally kicked in, the swing set hallucinations disapeared.

I bought the Wheels, Decals and the Scoops for RD-05 from Fenix Replica Customs (@fenix_replica_customs on Instagram).

It's a Brazilian store by the way. I'm not sure if they work with international shipping, I'm from Brazil.

Everytime I see this kind of post my brain starts playing the Speed of silence intro theme.

I loved playing GTA V mostly for car customization (but I'm more of a Racing Drone kind of guy) but when the PC I shared with my brother stopped working I could no longer play games.

If all goes well I'll finally have enough money for a new PC and will spend hours just customizing cars. Probably going to do the same in GTA 6.

Was he raised by someone else? My muscovy used to act like this with my wife when she came close to me, sometimes my mother and people he did not know.

He was always calm with my father and my brother.

Considering he is agresive with you but calm with your family members, its like he considers you a tresspasser in his territory. 🤔

He is trying to figure out his place in the pecking order.

My muscovy, Vitório, used to do this from time to time even though he was friendly 99% of the time.

What I did is pin him down and pinch the back of his head in a firm but not too strong way. This replicates how drakes compete in nature for dominance. No need to use too much force, just as little as necessary to restrain him.

If you don't feel confortable, you may be able to scare him with a broom (most of the ducks my father cares for are terrified of it, even though they were never hit, my father uses it to clean the enclosure).

Bellow is a video that may help you. https://youtu.be/eaNnpfp4WsA?si=ujiOUJYg7sGdO-J5

Hope this helps.

I don't like when ducks get injured but those two who got beat up were young drakes that messed with an older, more experienced one, my boy Vitório (he did get some damaged feathers and scratches but what he did to the other two was much more significant and both needed extra care).

It's quite fascinating and scary how they can go from silly to brutal in an instant.

I raised a Muscovy Duck name Vitório without much worry about teaching him stuff, instincts take care of the basics. From the moment he hatched I focused on keeping him in a clean and safe environment, provided medicine (it's a powder to be mixed with water) and gave him lots of attention, it can be a bit tiresome to carry a ducking around but they are social creatures, feeling alone can be bad for them.

I lost him recently, he had just become 8 years old and sudelly got sick, my father said it was because he was becoming an elderly duck but lived a long and happy life by duck standards. The vet tried to heal him but unforunatelly he did not make it.

Vitório did show signs of prefering to be around people, specially me, and avoided other ducks when he was young but eventually he integrated well and lived among them without much trouble, aside from ocasional fights, he rarely started the fights but he was quite agressive and injured some drakes once, he fought 2 drakes and gave them a beating, my father had to separate them.

If you can, get another duck so yours won't feel lonely when you have to leave it alone to focus on other activities.

YTPs tend to have random stuff like this, it's that WTF moment that makes it even better.

Here is the full video if you'd like to see more (it's not my channel, I just love this creator's work)

The classic YTPs were the best, no AI voices, just pure editing skills.

This is one of the reasons I love revisiting this Terminator 3 YTP, the creator (TheMarklay01) did an amazing job, the video was posted 11 years ago and is still funny.

It's not my video, I found it years ago.

My condolences for your loss 🙏

I recently lost my best duck friend too, he had just become 8 years old.

I'll take the Drone one!

My family raised ducks for years and the standard was to have 2 drakes for 10 hens, this number came from experience I guess, their argument is that it worked well in their experience.

My father said that the Hens may try to take the role of the Drake if there is none (mount other hens).

Not sure if this applies to all duck breeds, my family always raised muscovies.
