Mermay day 3: Nishikigoi (koi)

Koi fish trace their lineage to the humble common carp, first domesticated in East Asia over a millennium ago. In 19th-century Japan, rice farmers began carefully breeding these carp for their rare and beautiful colorations, giving rise to the exquisite ornamental koi. Their captivating beauty and cultural significance captured global admiration after their debut at the Tokyo Taishō Exposition in 1914.

"Please do not throw your garbage into the wormhole. Some of us work here.

Thank you.

- Abaddon"

Fifty years ago, humanity sent a radio tracking beacon through a wormhole as a test. When we couldn't locate it, we assumed wormholes weren't safe. Today, it came back through—with a note taped onto it.

As a kid, I bought this soundtrack with my own piggy bank money after seeing the movie in theaters. It is one of the first things of any note I probably ever purchased.

I played Part Of Your World so many times over and over again while singing with it that the tape broke. I remember sobbing after it broke.

It was decades later I realized I was trans, but even back then, something about that song called to me and resonated with my entire being.

I can't listen to the song without singing along. And I can't sing the song without crying. It was one of the most formative pieces of media I consumed as a kid. It, along with the film My Fair Lady, are my cultural touchstones. My subconscious always knew I was trans. It just took a long time for the rest of my brain to figure it out.

Ariel already loved the human world long before meeting Eric (you don’t get a collection like hers overnight) and when she finally got a chance to explore it, she took it.

Ursula made it more about Eric than Ariel ever did.
