Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of decoden and polymer clay questions about what to use to as a gloss/glaze. Almost every time the first response is “Clear nail polish, duh!”.
This needs to stop if people want to be creating quality items. Sometimes I’m afraid to buy handmade things for fear that they have been sealed with clear nail polish and they will deteriorate over time. I want to buy things that will last!
of course! I understand and I hope you have a wonderful few weeks despite everything going on. ^v^
Is this you? https://archiveofourown.org/works/40569615 Just wondering - it seems like it's your Primal AU, but I'm not sure given that there's no links. Just curious, TBH. [Will have questions about the AU itself coming shortly. Wanted to split them into their own ask so you could reply separately.]
Yep that’s me! The whole Fics still a work in progress and chapter 2 is a work in progress but I’ve got the ideas for it down and I’ll hopefully have it up soon!
I just had a realization- (kind of might be wrong but-)
Melli lives in the territory of not one not two but three legendaries and one mythical Pokémon or their at least close too the territory of two of them. and now I can’t get the image of Melli having to separate two literal gods and their own lord from having an all out arena battle-
Or maybe just the legendaries hiding around Melli like Darkrai hiding in their shadow for no reason but to avoid Cresselia or the player. Then by accident links their mind with Melli and just get stuck together for a few weeks. During this period of time Adaman saw their shadow and this happened-
Adaman: what did you bring with you
Melli(large shadow with piercing blue eyes looming behind them): My report :D
Adaman: •_•” Melli has come to the conclusion that they are now the warden of lord Voltorb, a easily agitated shadow, and a flying Croissant. Darkrai and Cresselia are having the time of their lives Melli hasn’t slept in a week-
Their not even aware of the two till Darkrai’s accidentally links with them and now they realize how close they are to two other gods territory-
Weirdly anti-millennial articles have scraped the bottom of the barrel so hard that they are now two feet down into the topsoil
Had a random thought that I might include in my au so diagla controls time palkia controls space diagla can reverse time if diagla were to reverse the time flow on a specific area or spot let’s say a wound and not effect the area around like how the body grew or something else could diagla cause wounds to heal faster no medical supplies required but with just a little bit of effort and boom no more fatal wound or palkia could just warp space and just poof the injury out of existence??? If the two chose to could they possibly cause a person to randomly just teleport around with the power of space or increase their speed and stamina with the power of time? What do you guys think?
alright from our limited data their harmless
however from a comon sense standpoint we should be running screaming…. So who wants to start a fire…
I am perfectly fine with you looking it over. I admit I am a bit new to writing these and my wording definitely needs some work and I’d be happy to hear your thoughts and critique!

Not to sound like a 90s shallow prep, but how you dress can affect your self esteem, and putting energy into wearing things you actively like and projecting an ideal of yourself through fashion instead of seeing clothes as things you have to put on out of obligation helps.
It also can give you a sense of control over your appearance that you otherwise wouldn’t have lmao
In the early 1990s, Brazilian photo-journalist Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado was stationed in Rwanda to cover the horrific accounts of Rwanda genocide. The on-ground experience left him traumatised. In 1994, he was returning to his home in Minas Gerais, Brazil, with a heavy heart, hoping to find solace in the lap of a lush green forest, where he had grown up.
But, instead, he found dusty, barren land for miles and miles, in place of the forest. In only a few years, his beautiful hometown underwent rampant deforestation, leaving it fallow and devoid of all the wildlife. For him, everything was destroyed. “The land was as sick as I was. Only about 0.5% of the land was covered in trees,’ he shared in an interview with The Guardian. Salgado was shattered.
Saldago’s Wife Wanted to Recreate The Forest
It was at this time that Salgado’s wife Lélia made a near-impossible proposal. She expressed her wish to replant the entire forest. Salgado supported her idea, and together the couple set out on a heroic mission. Brazil Photographer Forest
Salgado bought an abandoned cattle ranch from his parents and started building a network of enthusiastic volunteers and partners who would fund and sustain their mammoth project. In 1998, the couple founded Instituto Terra – the organisation which tirelessly worked to bring a forest back to life.

Salgado sowed the first seed in December 1999. The couple hired around 24 workers in the beginning and was later joined by numerous volunteers over the years. They worked day and night – from uprooting the invasive weeds to planting new seedlings. Soon, their hard work bore fruit as tropical trees native to the region started flourishing in the area. They received a donation of over one lakh saplings which gave rise to a dense forest. The handcrafted forest comprises mostly of local arboreal and shrub varieties. Latest satellite imagery revealed how a soothing green forest cover has enveloped the area which once was a devastating arid eyesore.Since 1998, they have planted more than 2 million saplings of 293 species of trees and rejuvenated 1,502 acres of tropical forest. The biodiversity-rich zone has recently been declared as a Private Natural Heritage Reserve (PNHR).
The Impact of Salgado’s Forest
The afforestation project, which is undoubtedly one of the greatest environmental initiatives in the world, has also helped to control soil erosion and revived the natural springs in the area. Eight water springs which once dried up, flow at around 20 litres per minute at present, relieving the drought-prone region of its woes. Salgado’s forest also happens to solve the much-debated notion about climate change, proving that the trend can be reversed if tried. His forest has resulted in causing more rainfall to the area and cooler weather, bringing a drastic and desirable change in the climate.
Instituto Terra’s Fauna | by Leonardo Merçon – 2012
The most important positive aspect of the forest till now has to be the return of the lost fauna. More than 172 species of birds, 33 species of mammals, 15 species of amphibians and reptiles have been spotted in the forest interiors, something which was beyond imagination two decades ago. Many of the plant and animal species in his forest actually feature on the endangered list.
Efforts For Good
Climate change is a harsh reality. Mankind is bearing the brunt of the relentless destruction they inflicted on the planet. Yet, people like Salgado and Lélia fill us with hope, proving that patience and persistence can be our keys to heal the wounds of nature. If two people can create a 1502-acre forest in just 20 years, then imagine how much can be done if everyone comes together to protect the environment. It must be reminded that for every tree we plant, we are adding 118 kgs of oxygen to the air every year, and reducing the carbon footprint by 22 kgs.
Efforts For Good urges all the readers to actively engage in planting trees and gradually turn this into a fixed habit.
