We all know what visualosities are, right? No? For all you newbies to this weird DWRP phenomenon, it's making a page filled with images that you feel represent your character, ranging from the extreme shitposting of tumblr text posts to fine art. Clear enough? Good! Here's how this works:
STEP ONE: Post a top level for your character, and link to your current visualosity if applicable. But don't just leave your comment blank -- give people some guidance! Is your character's image type 'offensively Australian'? 'Reflections of affable self-hatred'? Maybe you just really like their motif of a red bandana! People commenting to you don't need to stick to that imagery, but it sure makes it easier!
STEP TWO: Comment to others' top-levels and link them to images you think suit their characters. Ooh and ahh about what they've already got! Shitpost!
STEP THREE: There is no step three. This is a very simple meme.
IMPORTANT: Please remember to use content warnings for potentially triggering imagery! If you're on the fence about if it's appropriate, link to the image instead of posting it.
THIS IS NOT A BANDWIDTH FRIENDLY MEME
All right, that's all the obnoxious bolded stuff out of the way! Have fun, everyone!

Birthday Meme

a very merry Birthday meme!!
Does your character have a birthday?
Of course they do! Maybe you don't know it yet, but I'm sure they've got one--
(It's 4am, I cannot figure out flavor text, I'm sorry.)
Ok, so I'm a bit of a nerd for data, but I'm also forgetful and I nearly forgot that my old man here was going to age up *insert appropriate sims style age-up gif here, along with necessary over-the-hill jokes, and a few you're-not-old-you're-vintage ones* next month, so if you want to supply your character's alternate universe birthday in a comment below, I'll put them into a nice handy OOC calendar.
What can we do with this calendar?
I don't know. It's 4am and I just thought it'd be nifty.
Characters still would have to ICly learn each others birthdays in order to use this information ICly.
But we can... idk. It's data. We can see who is oldest (probably Aziraphale) and see who is youngest (probably Clarence) and who is smack in the middle (I don't know yet, but I think it's Anakin or Obi-Wan). We can see how many people are Aries, how many were likely conceived around Valentine's Day (aka born in early November).
Maybe your character's birthday has some ic or ooc significance! Tell me why! (Or maybe we'll find some significance or irony!)
Maybe your character will have a birthday buddy and you can make plans to learn that ICly!
Or you can just help me be a completionist and put you all on here.

Chinese Zodiacs (or sorted at this tab)
which provides me with additional interesting observations and self-indulgent information
Such as:
- Earth Is a Libra - Fell and Anthony are both Yin. This is ridiculous for the reasons that Earth is a Libra and the Ineffable husbands should inherently balance. They cannot if they're both Yin! No, seriously, I'm bothered by this, so this self-indulgent point is my first point. Alec is Yang. I find this ironic.
- Same Hat! - Ryah's Bitterblue and Anakin are both born in 1993, and so share the same zodiac (Rooster). Clarence and Elliott, our young not-boyfriends-but-also-maybe also share a birth-year and so share a zodiac (Horse).
- Balancing Act - By virtue of being an odd number of characters, it's inevitable that either Yin or Yang will have more. But at 6 - 7 in Yang's favor, the zodiacs are fairly balanced.

- We have the most Metal and Water, with both at 4. Earth is next with 3. Fire and Wood each get 1 entry on the list.
- We have 3 Horses, 3 Roosters. As an Ox, York has the only truly valid sign (I might be biased) and Lisa's Yang Metal Dragon sign has won the coolness awards, everyone else may go home.

Info and compatibility
Also, wiki informs me that Western conception of the Chinese zodiac leaves out the animal signs assigned by month (called "inner animals"), by day (called "true animals") and hours (called "secret animals"). But I'm going to need a break before I even attempt inner or true animals. Sorry.

Days of the Week
In considering doing the "true animals" of the Chinese Zodiac, I've calculated the days of the week that the characters are born on: HERE. At some point I'll re-edit my calendar format to allow for all this information in the calendar table, but I haven't gotten there yet.
Anyway:
- Monday's Child is Fair of Face - Sunday and Thursday were the most popular days to be born, followed by Friday. No one was born on Wednesday, probably because it's too hard to spell. Nor were they born on Saturdays. Given that Google assigns Saturday as day #7, clearly it was the day of rest.
- I find it ironic that Fell and Anthony were born on Sundays. Of course they were. Yotsuyu and Anakin were also born on Sunday.
- Elliott and Clarence continue to have something in common: both are the only ones born on their respective days (Elliott - Monday, Clarence - Tuesday).
- WWX combo breaks the BBB Thursday pattern.
- York continues the trend of being absolutely valid by being a Friday baby, and Lisa and Alec join him on his quest.
