GUNDAM FACTORY YOKOHAMA 1/144 RX-78F00 HMT GUNDAM HIGH MOBILITY TYPE (G-3 IMAGE COLOUR)

Just a straight build of a kit I recently purchased online; I'm actually ambivalent about the Yokohama Gundam's design (which is why I ended up getting the limited MG Nadleeh instead when I was at Gundam Factory Yokohama two years back), but seeing the G-3 Colour version of the design prompted me to buy one from Mandarake. It was an easy enough to assemble kit, but I didn't wish to panel line it, since I don't have the pot-style panel liner and the Yokohama Gundam has a ton of panel lines that I'd detonate if I did it all by hand.

While they don't list the Grade for the kit on the box, it assembles sort of partway between a modern Entry Grade and a High Grade, with quite a bit of inner frame and HG-style joints construction. It poses pretty well enough although some parts don't bend as much as I'd like.

Since this is the High Mobility Type, the Gundam comes with a set of armour that easily clips/pegs on that breaks up the colours with a few darker shades, as well as comes with a double barreled cannon. I did wish the cannon had a way to connect with the shield, so it could be displayed with the beam rifle, but alas.

Truth be told, I really love this rendition of the G-3 colours, with the lavender and muted purples with the mainly light grey scheme.

Due to the way they set the colour separation as well, the kit comes with quite a bit of extra parts, including black versions of several pieces of armour, extra white versions of the shoulder and waist armour (with a set of ankle armour from the regular version of the Yokohama Gundam), and an entire extra shield's worth of parts; makes for quite a bit of colour customisation for the kit if one wishes to.

I read the article, wondering if this might be a case of two terrible things coinciding, i.e., the Nazi salute AND the mass firing of meteorologists from local news stations and replaced with a feed of the Weather Channel but no, CBS 58 has quietly removed her and is looking for a replacement. It seems she was directly fired for this:

She worked five years and had just posted in support of the other fired local meteorologists.

People are already starting to reach out to CBS 58.

You think you can't be plural because there aren't any other voices in your head?

You already have one. Her name is tinnitus.

usamericans, if you get a call from someone purporting to be a usps postal inspection service agent notifying you that your name is down as the sender on a "suspicious package" seized in x state (probably not yours) just hang the hell up.

they will try to scare you and say that you will be reported as the sender of something that breaks federal law and you'll be entry/exit restricted and be placed on "red flag lists." they'll namedrop the department of homeland security and ominously warn you that failing to cooperate means you will be federally investigated.

they will even, if you ask for it, give you an undoubtedly fake name of the supposed agent with employee#, and even a case or "document" number.

and they will try to pressure you with some bullshit short turnaround deadline or time limit to complete x or y action within 2 hours or whatever.

it's suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch bullshit.

i got this call today and man if it hadn't literally woken me up with me answering it blindly, i wouldn't have let the call go on as long as it did, but it was at least... illuminating.

remember:

government agencies, especially federal agencies, will pretty much never cold call you.

they will mail you anything actually important/requiring action from you.

do not, DO NOT ever give them any information about you over the phone.

(seriously this woman wanted me to tell her what online shopping sites i'd recently entered identifying information into, there's no fucking reason to know that and even that shit gives information about you, your patterns and habits, and places that may be hackable which you'd have an account with.)

always, ALWAYS hang up, whether you demand the agent name/number/etc as i did or not, locate the real, official contact number for the agency supposedly contacting you, and call them directly to verify it was bullshit/possibly report the scam call.

i got passed through 3 different actual humans at the USPIS, all of whom responded with varying degrees of "uhh that sounds like bullshit/a scam" (i did delight in the one lady who lamented she couldn't call me back to find out how the ridiculous saga ended.)

the scam caller i spoke with was a polite, professional sounding woman who kept a calm tone and patiently responded to all my demands, repeatedly "assured" me she that she wouldn't request my personal details over the phone and that the call was being recorded, and she kept the conversation going for as long as she could milk even the tiniest kernel of "is there any realm in which this could be legit" doubt in me.

she was unphased when i told her point-blank it sounded like a scam, and she had the undoubtedly fake employee name/number/etc on hand when i demanded it, even providing a washington dc street address.

she even closed the call by telling me how she respected how wary i was that this might be a fraudulent call.

one last time, you get a weird call like this?

do not panic, do not be overwhelmed with anxiety.

do not be pressured by stress or supposed time limits.

DO NOT GIVE ANY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THE CALLER.

if you've already confirmed your name, that's already more than you want to; stop there. yes girl, give them NOTHING.

HANG UP.

INDEPENDENTLY VERIFY THROUGH OFFICIAL CHANNELS.

block the number and report it as spam.

do not panic. hang up. directly verify through official channels.

may my morning misadventure let you be wary of any such bullshit headed your way.

Ppl love to say “we are living in Orwell’s 1984!!!” about everything but the shift from Trump starting the idea of a tiktok ban to “Trump is saving tiktok!” is theeee most egregious example of doublethink I’ve ever seen in real life like it’s embarrassing lmao

Do not let them erase this. Do not let them tell you he meant "my heart goes out for you."

This man is the grandson of a Canadian Nazi sympathizer who moved to South Africa BECAUSE he thought the apartheid was just the coolest.

He has a gaggle of kids specifically because he believes his genes are superior and need to be spread to improve humanity.

He has thrown his support behind the neonazi party in Germany and the far right party in the UK, not to mention how far he's wormed up the ass of the Republican party.

He threw two sieg heil salutes back to back at the inauguration of the president of the United States and is trying to scrub the evidence off the internet.

Elon Reeve Musk is a fucking Nazi.

I just thought you should know that today, Jan 21st, the day after Trump's 2nd Inauguration, Turner Classic Movies did a whole 12-hour daytime bloc on anti-Nazi/anti-fascist films.

The Black Legion (1937)

Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939)

The Mortal Storm (1939)

The Great Dictator (1941)

The Seventh Cross (1944)

The Edge of Darkness (1943)

Background to Danger (1943)

And I'd just like someone else to notice because I think these little acts of demonstrating memory and value are important. TCM didn't choose wars films in which Americans are heroically fighting and winning; they chose films ABOUT fascism & autocracy--its destructiveness, its immorality, its stupidity & conformity--and the difficulty and danger individuals face when trying to resist or confront it.

I noticed TCM was posting The Great Dictator clips on their instagram, but didn't realize their whole schedule was like this. Good on them. It's brave to call a spade a spade when the spade is absolutely desperate to be labeled a sword.
