Casual reminder: Donald Trump does not have a rags-to-riches story. That $1M loan equals $5.3M today adjusted for inflation. Oh and his business acumen? Check the markets over the years, that myth has been popped too.
even when it’s not adjusted, you can’t pretend one million dollars is a small loan
A friendly reminder that Donald Trump is an asshat who doesn’t understand the actual value of money.

Interesting thought that came up when talking about changeling Queens and Papi’s canon. When a Queen converts a pony they do so through the Queen’s Kiss, through which the Queen feeds the pony a modicum of her essence and love to make the pony hers.
A clever unicorn, or other pony having taken the proper potion(s), could potentially lock a Queen into the Kiss and force her to continually give up her essence to the pony. Rather than making them into a drone, this usurping of power would make the pony into a new Queen, and reduce the old Queen to a drone for the new.
This event, the Queen’s Kiss Rebound, has never been done, or at least recorded, in Papi’s canon but could be possible and warrants further thought.
The idea of Papi (or one of the other Queens) having the royalty effectively sucked out of her by a usurper she trusted enough to welcome into her hive, and leaving her a drone and subject of said usurper is legitimately fascinating to me. I may need to experiment with this, but would first need one who would ask to be a drone, and make themselves a Queen through deceit.

Interesting. But I kinda feel as though going when he was younger made more sense. But that’s just me.
You do not know hobbits very well then. They don’t come of age until they’re 33, and are generally opposed to adventuring overall. Bilbo was 50 when he left for his journey to the Lonely Mountain too.

Seriously!?
Seriously. In the movies there’s maybe a couple of months between Bilbo leaving the Shire on his 111th birthday when Frodo turns 33, and when Frodo leaves the Shire to destroy the One Ring. In the books 17 years pass and Frodo doesn’t leave the Shire until after his 50th birthday.

I still need ideas for Papi’s Nightmare Night post…
As unpopular as many of the additions to the Hobbit movies are, Peter Jackson only added a day or two to the actual timeline, while removing at least 17 years from LOTR
Along with the “Bits for Bovines” anthro commissions, if anyone wants nonanthro commissions, those are available too at the same rate. If there’s enough interest I may run a giveaway of sorts along with them.
