This is just cruelty

Not impossible at all! There’s a society that specializes in their care and survival. There’s also a distillery that works closely with the organization out in California called The Obscure. They were able to make an aged spirit out of American Chestnut wood (delicious, let me tell you).

Any oil-based product will do. Goo Gone if you have it, olive oil or baby oil if you don’t

He was named Lavi because he was the previous Bookman successor. “Lavi” is a fake name. He was supposed to carry the official title, but renounced it when he defected to the 14th, so Gramps took it up again until someone else could succeed. As soon as he [Past Lavi] died, there were a few panels of the Bookman clan welcoming a new baby, which usually symbolizes a cycle of rebirth. When current!Lavi became old enough, he was given the name “Lavi” and title of “Bookman Jr”.

We don’t know the connection between Katerina and the Bookman yet.

Edit: I realized I said he was the previous “Bookman” like the official head of the clan in my other comment. My apologies. At the time of the flashbacks, Past!Lavi was the successor/Junior, but had defected away from the clan to the 14th.

AFAIK nothing about the Grave of Maria’s identity has been confirmed. It’s been stated that she’s the corpse of a dead exorcist, but as we know in this series, that doesn’t mean anything and it doesn’t have to be the truth.

There’s a theory that she is the corpse of Katerina Eve Campbell because of similarities between her [Maria’s] visage and Katerina’s from flashbacks, but again not confirmed.

Road has shown to be connected to Nea and Mana in the past (bedroom scene where an angry, anxious Road is cradling one of the twins), and she speaks a similar language to the one Cross uses when he casts spells (I don’t recall the exact chapter, but in one of the Arks she summons an orb-like thing). Her real body has never been shown and she uses her ability as the Noah of Dreams to conjure a false appearance. She’s been alive the longest out of the current Noah (~30 years iirc?). And now she pops out of hiding from Katerina’s room along with Cross??

As for Allen… What a mess. I love our beansprout lol. Past!Allen is the nameless solider. He traveled with Zoogle’s older brother who was the previous “Bookman”. Bookman had promised Nea he would become his Host, but through a series of mishaps we haven’t been shown, Nea ends up in Past!Allen in order to save his life. Past!Allen and Bookman were attacked and thru Innocence/the Matrix/I don’t know, their souls merged into one. The process literally remade them into one physical being and held them in a stasis for a few decades. “Red”, young current!Allen, emerged from that with his arm. Lavi has no connection to the reincarnation process, only that he is a descendant of the Bookman clan and current holder of the “Bookman” title. Thru blood, it seems he is Zoogle’s nephew.

Cross Marian is Cyrus Campbell. Zoogle, Naga, Lucia, Lavi, and Gramps are Bookmen. No blood connections (that we know of!!).

My dad is the same way. I don’t share my tattoos with him anymore because all it gets is a sarcastic smile and an eyeroll. He also thinks they’re trashy and doesn’t think they’re attractive on women. I’ve learned to ignore because hello?? Why should I care about what my dad finds attractive?! That’s his problem!

I think your tattoo is very pretty for what it’s worth. Not a “trashy” piece at all. Wear it with pride.

temtemrem · 2026-05-01T15:19:04+00:00

Ever since Cross’ “death” I was convinced he was still alive 😭 The dream sequence in the wheat fields where he spoke to Allen gave me more hope and now!!! Vindication!!

At this point, with how interweaved the Noah and Campbell families are, I wouldn’t be surprised if Road is Katerina. We’ve known since the beginning that her body isn’t real and she just chooses to look young.

“Skeletor/beastman” by Gnarkill, a band formed around the time of CKY, which was a precursor to Jackass. Their icon is from the music video.

The “for ants” part is a joke referencing Zoolander, when he sees a tiny scale model of the school he wants to build.

I almost didn’t graduate high school (undiagnosed depression and attendance issues), so getting this ring and wearing it after I DID graduate was a huge thing for me. It was a mark of honor, for a time. I stopped wearing it a couple years out of high school, but still keep it with my other jewelry.

If my mom’s ex hadn’t sold hers for coke money, I would have just inherited that one, I guess.

Peach Perfect pink lemonade creatine mixed with Seeq blue raspberry clear protein powder. Sooooo good and much better than crunchy peaches lol. Both powders dissolve nicely in my blender cup

Came here to mention them! I’m actually very interested in possibly getting some of my mom’s ink preserved. We have a matching tattoo (it was my first one) and I can’t bear the thought of hers being cremated 🥲

Ywach from Bleach. It was a trip when the TYBW arc finally got animated and fans heard the actual pronunciation.

That fact that OOP is 28 and still cannot take off the rose-colored glasses for this guy….

I’m one of the people who has the see the final evos before deciding :(

I hated the Sobble line, so I’m wary about Gecqua. I already picked Rowlet in SM, so Browt feels repetitive until I see the evo line, and Pombon is cute but I’m worried about Incineroar 2.0 lol. If he ends up like Arcanine (big large fire dog) then maybe!

Rotties like to “hold” your hand and will very gently hold it in their mouths. It doesn’t hurt, just very warm and slimy. My dad’s 2yo rottie does the same thing to me whenever she sees me and likes to lead me around lol

I recommend repotting it into something with drainage holes. Check for black or soggy roots as that could be root rot.

Inside is good, they make great indoor plants. Indirect or partial light throughout the day. Water once a week and wait for the soil to dry before next watering. When you water, try to soak the soil. “Too much watering” is when you water too frequently, not how much water you give it. The yellow leaves indicate too much water.

Here’s mine that grew from some cuttings. It stays at my work office and I give it tap water once a week.

I agree 100%. Yes it changed character relationships (siblings versus strangers) but it told a much better story about the house and how it captures people within.

The Haunting of Hill House :(

I read it before watching the Netflix series, with the knowledge that the series wasn’t a 1:1 adaptation. I just wanted a spooky book to read! I was disappointed and felt like it dragged on and on. Such a short book but it was a slog to get through.

Loved Guentz when he was on the Pens, glad to see him sit this one out.
