Scholars have speculated that the titular character of "The Snow Queen" was based on Hans Christian Anderson's unrequited love, Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind. The portrayal of the Queen as cold-hearted & malevolent could be inspired by Lind rejecting him.

Today's brown skin character OTD is: Rumi Usagiyama / Mirko from My Hero Academia! The 5th-highest ranked hero in Japan and the highest-ranked female hero. She has a Japanese name but some viewers speculate she could be black or latina.

My god, people just fucking google "qilin".

It's been a speculated partial mythological creature inspiration for Suicune for over 2 decades.

WIP

Technically the fourth pass as a means to explore technique and speculate on certain details that I don't have concept or key art to confirm.

Have marked two spots that I might be deviating from most fan art I have seen, but not particularly set in stone yet.

I speculate that Baizhu is holding a dried bottle gourd in his hand to tie in with his medicine and maybe immortality theme? (+ it’s his cons name). The gourd symbolises immortality and good health in Chinese mythology. He’s frail could be his reason for immortality?(1/2)

This c.1829 British silk dress in the features two St Helena plants: Dicksonia arborescens (tree fern) and Wahlenbergia angustifolia (bellflower) it has been speculated. Agree?

Bras (Yếm/𧞣) and skirts (Thường/裳) of the Le Dynasty (1428-1789) were unearthed at the ancient tomb of Hoang Duc in 1958, which is speculated to be the tomb of a royal woman of the Le Dynasty (dragon embroidered shirt).

It's funny how things come full circle. It would have been nice to see a little bit more of Luster, but I think it's fun for us to speculate with her.

Re: Zero Daily Trivia

Vincent Vollachia learnt about the concept of Observers from Stride Vollachia's journal, which he found hidden in an archive of the Crystal Palace.

Both Chisha and Vincent came to speculate, due to Stride's writing, that he had been a Stargazer

Spoilers but Velma finds her Mom who we all probably speculated as the killer turns out she wasn’t and was mind controlled by Fred’s Mom who is a twist villain and the murderer which makes no fucking sense at all because we never got hints it was her and she barely had screentime

I've seen people speculate Kohime Ohse (Atelier Marie's artist) is returning for the Remake and.....sorry to disappoint but it's highly unlikely unless she went with a 180° turn of her art style.

Comparison:
Atelier 20th Anniversary (2017) vs Atelier Marie Remake (2023)

Physical and dietary differences. Note, though the scientific consensus is that Gastornis was a herbivore, I speculate that it was at least somewhat omnivorous like today’s ratites. Still definitely not an apex predator (2/3)

Also, I speculate that they could be hiding the fourth alignment right under our noses this whole time. Look at this art from the Steam page, the purple Pogling has a different shape of the forehead/cheek tufts than the others. 🤔

For friends who have pressed ❤ on that tweet:

I speculate that the villains would be thinly-veiled expies of CG characters, likely CyberFrog and/or The Jawbreakers.

So the story would be about these woke superheroes fighting and beating the CG stand-ins, likely in a comical way, as an "own" to their detractors.

Never forget when The Meg's creature design almost shared the same unrecognisable, over-monsterised fate as JW or 65. Instead, they went with something more akin to actual sharks and even pseudo-speculated on how Meg would change over millions of years in deep ocean environment.

So for my next video, I'm researching the question: what if a slave rebellion ended slavery in the United States? I've stumbled upon a couple people who speculated on this and there are some historical events to make it somewhat plausible. The Baptist War contributed to the 1/
