Okay But Like, Kaminari Is Totally That One Kid At The Lunch Table Who Eats The Most Random Almost Inedible

Reblog if you’d be okay if your friend came out as transgender

let’s see how many transphobics we can weed out

In honor of world bonobo day here are pota bonobo headcanons for my au‼️‼️

- many of the bonobos of the large bonobo colony originated from either zoos or research facilities, and the latter were fluent in yerkish.

- Sign language isn’t known by most bonobos, as they have always communicated verbally once speech was acquired by them (I imagine before this was discovered they communicated using simple gestures and drawing out yerkish symbols they could remember into the ground).

- Some of the yerkish symbols are remembered in the modern “20s era” as symbols with vague but sacred meanings.

- bonobos and gibbons are considered to be long time allies, stemming from admiration for one another in “ancient times” (aka Caesar’s time) and a shared history of discrimination and persecution by the other ape species

- It was through this close bond that allowed bonobos to also gain the difficult ability of singing far sooner than their non-bonobos counterparts

- Chimps and gorillas that originated from the San Francisco colony (more on this in a separate post the Caesar family drama goes crazy) nearly hunted their kind to extinction before they went into full isolation mode and almost seemed to “disappear” from history for many generations.

- They were found by proximus’ apes and forced into many years of servitude until his untimely death, and they again fled and went into hiding until they began something akin to “mythological creatures” until they felt safe enough to live openly a few decades before the 20s era’s.

- I like to think that the few apes that accidentally encountered often spotted them wading in the water, thus making them believe they were something equivalent to “water nymphs” and non-apes.

- Song and dance is extremely sacred to them and it’s considered a great honor to allow outsiders to join in

- Water is also a deep part of their culture, I love to imagine them being fascinated by mammals that live in/near the water such as beavers, river otters etc.

- They have a less than favorable view of Caesar due to centuries of bad history with chimpanzees and their belief that their personal martyr died as a result of Caesar’s teachings (not entirely true but no side currently knows the full story).

- Bonobos directly inspired the 20s era’s “flapper” look and lifestyle and are unfortunately uncredited for it

- Many 20s era bonobos are French speaking with French based names, this is due to their ancestors learning the language in order to further isolate themselves from other non-bonobo colonies.

- A controversial practice that died out only a few decades before they stopped hiding themselves was the breaking of young females hands in order to strengthen the bones and spirit, not realizing at the time they were in fact only weakening them.

- This practice originated from a very young Lisala’s (I’ve talked a bit about her before, she is meant to loosely pay homage to Lisa and is the martyr worshipped by bonobos) mother shattering her hands with a rock in response to her throwing a tantrum and striking her younger brother.

- A character that hasn’t been introduced to yall yet succeeded in introducing it to Soror City (Francesca Octavia; rumored to be the result of a bonobo/chimp affair and is known for being the “bridge” between the two species’ separate societies)

- Currently in the 20s era, bonobos that live in Soror City often struggle to find sustainable careers due to biases held by other apes who find them “undesirable” to have working for them. As a result many often find work in less than legal and/or socially acceptable ways, such as bushmeat hunting or working in brothels.

- Despite this, they are loved and trusted by apes of the rising queer community who are warmly welcomed by the bonobos in the city.

- Dorothea May is considered to be the first true glimpse of hope in their community, due to her breaking barriers and becoming the first adored bonobo film actress

Reblog if you're black tumblr.

You don’t have to be black, it just means you support us, you stand by us and you’re for us.

Reblog if you support asexuals and aren’t a COWARD

RB if your blog is a safe, accepting space for asexuals!

i’m seeing a lot of people reblogging suicide hotlines and this is just a reminder that this is a suicide help line that works like a text-based instant messenger for people who may need to talk to someone but have trouble/are uncomfortable making phone calls

Gaia my beloved, she is a very distant relative of Caesar through a sibling of the wife of Proximus Caesar (yes i headcanon that proximus is ironically the real descendant of Caesar and no he did not realize this was actually 100% either). She is very loosely inspired by Dr. Zira and Ari, as well as having some inspiration from Jordan Baker in the Great Gatsby. I forgot to specify this in reference but she is from one of the handful of “Old Money” chimpanzee families, and she holds a lot of prejudices that she doesn’t even realize are offensive (inspired by Dr. Zira’s blatant hatred for gorillas and orangutans in the og films).
