Hi everyone!

As you may or may not know, Bear School is the silly visual novel I created a few years ago where you get to go to school with a bunch of bears and live all sort of pointless crazy adventures.

With Kerry’s route finished (and soon to be released), I am slowly starting to plan things for Pang’s route, in order to insure things will go smoothly. In order to achieve this, I would actually need to discuss some things with someone who’s in a situation similar to the new character who will get introduced during Pang’s route, a young panda named Chun.

TL;DR: I need some help to properly write Chun

Chun happens to be the first disabled character that I write, and more than anything, I want to do it with as much respect as I can - for example, I’d like to avoid as many clichés as I could as well as things that might come off as insensitive or inaccurate to people who are in a situation similar to his.

Chun is Pang’s cousin, and the potential love interest for Pang’s route, as Pang himself is not dateable. The young panda got into an accident a couple years ago and is now almost unable to use his legs. For this reason, in order to write this route with as much respect as I can, I’d like to be able to maybe discuss with someone who lives with a similar disability and who’d be willing to share their experience (obviously, only if that person feels comfortable with that).

The idea would be for me to be able to find such a person and to get their feedback on a fairly rough description of the character that I came up with, as well as the main interactions between himself and the protagonist.

I would really be grateful if you could reblog this post in order for me to be able to reach someone who could help me with this

If you’re interested in helping me, please feel free to contact me either through tumblr or through my twitter account.

25% of the people have a 4th cone and see colors as they are

Given the sudden interest for the color of dresses and vision, here some of the fascinating findings we did recently.

The color nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones (=color receptors) in our eye. You can check this rainbow: how many color nuances do you count?

You see less than 20 color nuances: you are a dichromats, like dogs, which means you have 2 types of cones only. You are likely to wear black, beige, and blue. 25% of the population is dichromat.

You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is trichromat.

You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is tetrachromat.

You see more than 39 color nuances: come on, you are making up things! there are only 39 different colors in the test and probably only 35 are properly translated by your computer screen anyway :)

It is highly probable that people who have an additional 4th cone do not get tricked by blue/black or white/gold dresses, no matter the background light ;)

I don’t normally make posts like this, but I feel like this is something I need to do because it’s bigger than myself. So, I don’t know if you’ve heard but the Wonder Woman film comes out June 2nd… And if you didn’t know that, there’s a reason for it. Warner Brothers aren’t spending money on promoting the Wonder Woman film. No tv promotions, billboards, nothing. A film about a strong, powerful, amazing woman superhero directed by Patty Jenkins who happens to be the first woman to direct a superhero film with a female protagonist and one of only a handful (a literal handful… you can count on one hand) to direct a superhero film at all. They are setting it up to fail so they can say “I told you so” and not only continue the blatant sexism in the film industry but blame it on Patty if the movie fails, setting female directors up (whom are already told they won’t get hired) so they can have an excuse to say “Oh well, we tried hiring a woman to direct a film and it didn’t work. Lets not do that again.” This film is bigger than just being a superhero movie… It has the ability to bust open the glass ceiling of Hollywood to tell them that yes, superhero movies about women do well and yes, women can not only direct blockbusters but they can do it well. Because I can guarantee you, Patty does it well. PLEASE spread this around and let Warner Brothers know we aren’t going to stand for this bullshit. GO SEE WONDER WOMAN JUNE 2nd!!!

Hey tumblr,

Above our pictured two good friends of mine @thejudge and @a-controlled-substance . 

Yesterday (3/3/17) at 3am, they lost control of their car on icy roads and were hit by a semi. @a-controlled-substance is in the hospital with a skull fracture, and @thejudge didnt survive the crash. 

This is a devastating loss for all of his family, friends, and fans, but most of all for his girlfriend.

Once she is out of the hospital, she is going to need lots of help piecing her life back together, and Im hoping we can get some support.

There are a few ways you can support.

One is to donate to their gofundme here https://www.gofundme.com/postwreck-recovery-fund-for-ashley

This gofundme will be used to help with medical expenses, housing, and other basic essentials so ashley can try to live her life as normally as possible after this.

Another is simply spreading the word.

Lastly if you all would be willing to play felix’s game “Home” and spread the word about the gofundme there, that would be great.

I know he was always a bit bummed that not many people played his game, and that the off fandom was dying, itd be great to see some support for it

Felix was a talented, kind individual who was taken away much too early. Words cannot express how horrible of a loss this is.
