Golden Sun Art Initiative

Fantastic concept and backstory, and nice that it is independent of the main quest (while still having the Sun Saga books represented).

introducing my Golden Sun OC Baichun 😊

Hey Jass, How do you feel about the time change which serves no real purpose and which only causes misery, especially in children due to the shift:
"(insert Golden Sun Catastrophe summon here)"
"(insert Golden Sun Judgement summon here)"
"(insert Golden Sun Eclipse summon here)"
Any questions?

Will? Or dare I say...Thomas Riker?
Dun dun dun!!!

A poorly doctored image of Ken Jeong in "Community" saying "I'll allow it." The hair from Isaac (from Golden Sun) has been placed on Jeong's head.

The image is the "I Bet He's Thinking About Other Women" meme with a woman and man in bed, and she is looking at him with suspicion. The text above her reads, "He's probably thinking about Rome." The much smaller and lengthier text above him reads, "Tolbi has a huge colosseum and is practicing colonialism due to their military presence and coerced labor in Lalivero, not to mention the architectural elements and semi-Mediterranean appearing terrain. That doesn't explain the placement of Tolbi in a vaguely medieval world, at least where Weyard seems to be technologically. The closest comparison would be the Byzantine empire, but Kalay is more fitting for that from both location and design. Spain? Is Tolbi supposed to be Spain given where it sits on the Karagol? Regardless, no; we can safely confirm that Tolbi isn't Rome. I think. This means that I'm not thinking about Rome."

Hey, remember that theory about how men supposedly are always thinking about Rome? Well, beware the Ides of March, because after so many years without new Golden Sun, it may be something else on the mind.

Today was a good day to check in.
-Why? The new Pokémon starters dropped?
...No.
-The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons/Ages 25th Anniversary?
...No, but closer.
-Politics?
...What? No! @isaacadepts.bsky.social made this announcement (also the A.V. Club dropped a tennis review worth reading).

Guessing you may need a specialist for the wheat pennies?

Since we have officially entered the year of the horse, here is the best example of a horse in Golden Sun.
Maybe there could be a horseback ridding mechanic in a new Golden Sun game? Just a thought.

Yep. There is also exactly one puddle of water you can freeze to get a treasure chest (it just holds a vial) only once Piers joins. So if you 100% the dungeon besides that, then return once you get Piers to see that the chest holds something which is not worth it...
This isn't a true story at all.

Quote post with your favorite Psychic-type Pokémon...
Hang on, my Ivan fainted again. Is there a Pokémon Center nearby?

You too.

Although now that I look at it...

Photo of the opera mascots from the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan opening ceremony, featuring a conductor being surrounded by three performers wearing giant heads made to represent the composers Verdi, Puccini, and Rossini.

Same photo as before, but the three heads have been replaced with the faces of, from left to right, Tret, Obaba, and Kraden from the game Golden Sun Dark Dawn.

I haven't been following the Olympics very closely (translation: at all) although when it came to the opening ceremony, I have one humble suggestion.
Before and after photos, just in case.

Quick Jass update; I'm still here, just not as active. Keep fighting oppression in your own communities (time consuming these days), and making and/or performing art.
On that note, time to head out. Check in later, okay?

"ll mmlmzm mxmmxz koi"

I am 11% certain that this is 100% the fault of Camelot making Mario Tennis Fever.
Yep, that's the math alright. If only there were a dormant RPG series that could perhaps help in some way...

Better late than never! A chance to flesh out the Tuaparang could be intriguing, and it sounds like a more intellectual and curious character compared to the pure "war is good" portrayal they set up in Dark Dawn.

Yep...
It does have things worthy of praise, but you are so correct on this. Be brave!

Isaac's prayer at the start of Golden Sun: Dark Dawn.

The rest of the Golden Sun Dark Dawn prayer.

"What we've got here is failure to communicate."

Um...
The ice palace doesn't have its own bar? Who lives in that palace, Carrie Nation and Billy Sunday?

I'm also not a big celebrator, but hoping yours was alright.
And the 29th? I know someone else with the same day. Ignored them as well, to show I care!

My mental health, and those of my close friends, are at a low right now with everything happening in our communities in Minnesota.

But don't let yourself feel helpless and hopeless. Through community, we have power to make good and great change.

Stay informed, stay proactive. Keep your heads up.

One of the best parts of reading with children of that age is letting them discover things. Rereading and pausing so they will finish the sentence or intentionally not reading the words and just telling the story by describing the images. Pointing out how characters feel. Bidgood is great for that.

'Tis an abomination!
I mean, if a kid likes it that's fine. That said, this "musical" is clearly one of those things where adults aren't creating for children, but for adults who have children.
Jokes for adults, or worst case, "let me put this on to distract my kid" (it got a CD in book release).

That's a lot of interesting angles to take! A Jupiter adept from near Air's Rock, but not one of the werewolves of Garoh, so possibly a nomadic people? And that he was a wind adept who traveled with the party needing someone with such powers implies a messy breakup of sorts.
Thank you for sharing.

No...
Please, no!

If you don't mind sharing, is there any backstory on Loryan such as place of origin (which desert, since we have several to chose from) or if there is significance to the pointed ears?
Or which era they belong to (original or Dark Dawn)?
Happy to see some trans representation in the fandom!

King Bidgood, the Musical, by Wood Studios track by Wood Studios

It does! Although are you acquainted with the musical adaptation? Nothing quite like stretching a fun two minute read out to an excruciating 13 minutes...

Not trying to make this about me, but to demonstrate an example by saying this.
I have eaten here, where this took place.
Now imagine you were there. Eventually the consequences will reach everyone in some way, so you best figure out what you are doing right now. No one is safe from this.
