Got a little overconfident in the cookie clicker stock market and I feel like I'm learning a real lesson about hubris

There was a gang shooting last night in front of my school and the teachers are talking about it like it's gossip 😭 Mexico never change

Look, I'm a Mexican, and my country is kind of economically dependent on the US. Trump winning means we are likely going to get a lot of trade restrictions, not even addressing the fact that our family members living in the US are going to be put in genuine grave danger (more than they already are, because the US government wouldn't recognize human rights unless its held at gunpoint), particularly if they are undocumented. The world is going to suffer this, maybe just as much, if not more, than you are.

Still.

I don't want to see any of you blaming Palestinians, or Arabs, or Muslims, or black people, or trans people, or third party voters, or whatever scapegoat minority you pick, for this outcome. This is not their fault. You know whose fault it is? Trump's and the people who voted for him. The American establishment that allowed him to run for president at all. I don't want to see you being angry at leftists for "putting their moral purity before harm reduction" because that is redirecting the righteous anger you should be feeling toward the US government toward its victims. It's victim blaming rethoric.

It makes me ashamed to see so many people falling for it, quick to blame leftists for the USA's steady decline into fascism, instead of blaming, oh I don't know, the fucking fascists running your fucking country. Get real.

Being Mexican means crying your eyes out the days leading up to Halloween

Listening to the Gravity Falls creator comentary, and they describe Dipper something like "trying so hard to be normal it flips around and becomes weird" and that really is just Apollo Justice. I'm a firm believer that the Ace Attorney saga just mastered the "straight man that is not so straight" character archetype but I gotta say that Dipper is right there as well.

Anyway Apollo really is just Dipper in another font lmao.

My current classmates have like 0 reading comprehension skills it's not even funny.

Reading my old posts and getting sad because my life used to be so cool (I got to write essays about literary theory) and now it's Not (I am 'learning' about the structure of an argumentative text) and I feel so Weird going to a normal highschool where not every teacher is lowkey a communist and 'theory of aesthetics' is a mandatory class. They don't even know about critical theory.

Like, it's mostly a lot about me venting about how stressful it all was, but that doesn't mean I can't miss it. Probably the best era of my life.

And I want the sun

to go through my whiskers,

like thin strands of silver,

and have god, in his glory,

shower me with the devotion,

he used to create cats,

when the world was first envisioned

Lord of Time "Benjamin" wants to go on adventures with me!

A very neat detail I just noticed while watching in Into the Spiderverse in English for the first time, is that during this montage, after Miles enters this new school, the teacher who teaches Spanish says "En esta clase, se habla castellano" (In this class, we speak Castillian) with a very strong, well, Castillian accent, and then a while later, he says, "La C se pronuncia como la Z" (The C is pronounced like a Z), a feature only present in the Castillian dialect of Spanish, and that doesn't even exist in all other Spanish dialects within Spain. And I don't know if this was a very intentional choice in the part of the writers/directors, a way to contrast Miles' Caribbean background (one of the first things we are introduced to in the movie) with the prescriptivist, eurocentric view his new school has of the Spanish language. I am inclined to believe it was intentional, given the themes of the movie, but regardless, it's an interesting little thing I thought I'd share!
