Shiro is the son of Neito and a civilian woman, with a Quirk that allows him perfect recall and muscle memory of any physical act he’s seen and is capable of. His primary combat style is martial arts and gymnastics, supported by capture cloth techniques he learned from Aizawa and Shinso.
Chihiro is Denki’s daughter with Kyoka, with a blended Quirk that lets her discharge electricity from outlet prongs at the end of her ear cords.
The Japanese American National Museum (JANM) decries the recent comments by Czech President Petr Pavel that minimized the incarceration of people of Japanese descent in the U.S. during World War II and suggested that Russians living abroad today should be subjected to similar treatment
In an interview with Radio Free Europe on Thursday, Pavel said that Russian nationals living abroad should be “monitored much more” by intelligence services in their host countries, stating that during World War II “all the Japanese population living in the United States were under a strict monitoring regime as well” and calling it “simply a cost of war.”[…]
“To suggest that this shameful chapter of American history was an acceptable ‘cost of war’ is a denial of the great injustice that was committed. To further suggest that people of any group should be treated similarly today flies in the face of the hard-fought lessons accrued from that history. JANM was founded to tell the stories of the Japanese American experience in order to ensure that such tragic discrimination does not happen again,” said Ann Burroughs, president and CEO of JANM.

He’s a pro-American zionist. That’s a fucking dickhead by default.
was in the car with my friend when I saw the car we passed had the license plate “SADNESS” and I went oh wait we gotta slow down so I can get a pic, but every time we went slower the other car also slowed down. so I looked behind us to see what was going on and the passenger also had their phone up and wheezing the same way I was, and that’s when I remembered my friend’s license plate is “LOSSJPG”
you think I would do that? just go on the internet and tell lies?
Every time I read the Caleb Widogast origin comic, I pause on the page where Bren and Astrid are in bed without Wulf, and I wonder why. I’ve seen several metas about Bren and Astrid liking each other more than they like Wulf, but that idea didn’t sit well with me, particularly because Wulf made the first move. So I kept mulling it over and came up with the headcanon that Wulf is either demi or grey-ace or something of that nature where he isn’t always interested in being intimate the same way Astrid and Bren are. Then, I wrote a small little character study about it because I was rotating him in my head like a rotisserie chicken and came to the decision that Wulf would be one of those people who don’t figure themselves out until well into adulthood.
I imagine after this, post-C2, he either talks to Caduceus (or maybe even Essek) and finally has words for his feelings. (Also, I headcanon Bren as being a bit self-absorbed during the Trent days, and it makes a small appearance here).

Wulf had always had a complicated relationship with romance and attraction. For the longest time, he had blamed it on his father’s abrasive nature and the fact that growing up, he was never sure if his parents loved each other or merely put up with each other.
He could remember the first time he had seen Bren Ermendrud. He had been ten and hiding from one of his parent’s arguments down by the river when he spotted the smaller boy jumping rocks. He didn’t bother saying anything that day and instead watched the other boy’s joy and peace.
He kept watching him whenever he wandered towards the village fascinated, though he was sure Bren never noticed. His mom called it a crush. Wulf hadn’t been so sure at the time.
since it’s ALSO ’Canada’ Day.. let’s talk about EUGENICS!
I’d like to remind everyone that our Government is currently enacting Medically Assisted Suicide for people with Mental Health and Chronic conditions, while ALSO failing to provide the disability supports we require to LIVE.
Yes Elon is bad at running Twitter. It should be noted that he is more than likely intentionally tanking the value of Twitter, so he can declare bankruptcy. He must do this while looking like he’s doing his best.
Remember, all this happened because he joked on Twitter about buying Twitter to temporarily spike his Twitter stock. This is blatantly insider trading, and the sort of thing the SEC loves punishing people for.
This put Elon in a tricky place. He could say he was joking, and risk getting investigated by the SEC. Or he could double down, and actually buy Twitter to prove he wasn’t lying to boost his stock price. These were both horrible options for Elon. But being investigated by the SEC is the type of thing that rich people have nightmares about.
So he was forced to buy Twitter. He could not afford Twitter. So he was forced to engage in a leveraged buyout, meaning he had to pay a big chunk of the check in Tesla stock. This was a shit deal for Elon. Twitter was well known for essentially being at the peak of it’s profitability, and the previous owners were looking for a nice exit. They were happy to sell the company to Elon for what was probably the highest price tag Twitter would ever have.
What this meant for Elon, was he had just used several billion dollars of his actually profitable company, and had to tie it’s ankles to a company that would only drop in value. (and a company he had no idea how to run.) If Twitter drowns, Tesla does too.
His only way out is to tank Twitters value so the company can declare bankruptcy, sell off the assets, and stop bleeding money. But he can’t LOOK like he’s doing that ON PURPOSE for the same reason that he had to double down on buying Twitter in the first place: the SEC is very scary.
