i just had this really weird dream where i was chosen by lady Aphrodite as her daughter, and the whole thing was like some kind of council with the gods? she was present along Athena, Poseidon, Ares, Hermes (i think)? i wasn't the only "child" there tho, but i don't remember the faces of the others.

we couldn't see the gods, only feel them, but lemme tell you THEY WERE DEFINITELY THERE OMG. like their energy was almost overwhelming, and i think i like passed out at the end? lady Aphrodite told me something like "whatever you choose to do will be the right decision. it'll go well, have faith." (and after thay i think passed out and then woke up)

it was my first time dreaming about the gods and i'm so happy i still somewhat remember!! hail the gods! 🫶🏽

Feb 26 - divided up and froze the tomato vegetable sauce. Ran (but have yet to put away) two loads of laundry. Cleaned the toilet.

Supper was meatloaf; boiled potatoes tossed with seasoned salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and butter; and steamed carrot slices with honey and cloves.

Hundreds of Jews and allies... took over NBC’s famed 30 Rockefeller Center headquarters in NYC to disrupt [Joe Biden's] appearance on [Late Night with Seth Meyers] and make it clear that supporters of genocide are not welcome in our city. 50 protesters were arrested. President Biden’s deadly foreign policy has expedited weapons sales to Israel, ignored the World Court’s determination that Israel is committing genocide, suspended funding to UNRWA, and vetoed three UN ceasefire resolutions. The growing public consensus on the need to prevent further loss of life in Gaza as the death toll eclipses 30,000 cannot be denied. Yet President Biden has still pledged an additional $14.1 billion in military funding to Israel. The President needs to start answering to the American people – not the far-Right Israeli government indiscriminately bombing the people of Gaza, destroying 70% of infrastructure, including hospitals, universities and the electricity and water grids.

... fuck it, I'm going to not sensor my face for this one post

Vidcon 2023 photos under the cut!

Right here on day #1, CG5 jumped out at me and frightened me so badly I couldn't stop shaking! The only evidence of this is the photo I took with him and a video from a vod of his.

Day two, I started off in old Grian cosplay I didn't bring half of my supplies for accidentally.. I will not be showing pictures. I met Sneeg in my L'Manbur cosplay and I also met Tubbo! you can see my hat here in this vod in the background, I didn't get a photo with him that day.

The axe is called the Dreamslayer and I made it myself. I got Tubbo's and Smajor's (@defonotsmajor)signature on it and I'd like to get Grian and Fundy to sign it too... also maybe Dream? Idk, I don't like him. I just want all the people Grian killed in MCC IX to sign it.

I met so many more people than this, but this is the only photo of my signature book I have on hand. I remet JaidenAnimations's dad, and promptly sobbed because he's probs my favorite person ever.

I had a wonderful year! Unfortunately I won't be returning for this year, 2024. I'll be in Massachusetts. To anyone who goes, it's an amazing experience and I hope you have a ton of fun!

Howdy folks!!!

Sorry I’ve been absent for a bit, I got really busy working on my cosplay for VIDCON 2023!!! I’m still at it currently, so I’ll post more pictures tomorrow!!!

I dressed as L’manburg Wilbur Soot from the DSMP! Some bits of my cosplay are inspired by the French rev. and I’ll talk about that more in an update!

I am still so proud of Fit's acting here, even if it led to that moment between q!Phil and Lullah, I don't think q!Phil would have accepted being questioned by anyone else.

[I choose to be happy and ignore the fact this is their last canon interaction, we look past that]

For people still in denial whether Israel has committed war crimes, here is a comprehensive list of war crimes Israel has committed both before and after Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, the list being taken from the Wikipedia article of war crimes with some notable missing examples being the usage of chemical weapons, famine, disease and apartheid. The 7th of October attack did not occur in a vacuum, but is the product of decades of Israel not being held accountable for its war crimes.

Things Biden and the Democrats did, this week #3

Jan 26-Feb 2 2024

The House overwhelmingly passed a tax deal that will revive the expanded Child Tax Credit, this will effect 16 million American children and lift 400,000 out of poverty in the first year. The deal also supports the building of 200,000 housing units over the next two years, and provides tax relief for communities hit by disasters.

The Biden Administration has begun negotiations on drug prices for Medicare. Earlier this year the administration announced it would negotiate for the first time directly with drug manufacturers on the prices of 10 common medications. This week they sent their opening offers to the companies. The program is expected to save Medicare and enrollees billions over dollars over the long term and help push down drug prices for everyone.

The Department of Transportation has green lit $240 Million to modernize air ports across the country. Air Ports in 37 states will be able to get much needed updates and refurbishment.

The Biden Administration announced 10 sites across America as sites for innovation investment. They will receive up to 2 billion dollars each over the next 10 years. The goal is to stimulate economic growth and innovation in semiconductor manufacturing, clean energy, sustainable textiles, climate-resilient agriculture, regenerative medicine, and more.

The State Department reviews options for recognizing Palestinian Statehood. While as of yet there's been no policy change this review of options is a major shift in US diplomatic thinking which has long opposed Palestinian Statehood and shows a seriousness of reported Biden plans to push for Statehood as part of a post-war Israel-Saudi normalization deal.

President Biden imposes sanctions on Israeli settlers who have engaged in violence against Palestinians and peace activists. This marks the first time the US has leveled sanctions against Israelis and sets up a standard that could see the whole settlement movement cut off from the US financial system

the Department of Energy has tentatively agreed to a $1.5 Billion dollar loan to help reopen a Michigan nuclear power plant. This would mark the first time a closed nuclear plant has been brought back online. Closed in 2022 it's hoped that it could reopen in time to be generating power in late 2025. This is part of Biden's plan to decarbonize the electricity grid by 2035.

the Internal Revenue Service launched a program to allow tax fillers file for free directly with the government. In 2024 its a pilot program limited to 12 states, but plans for it to be nation wide by tax day 2025

The Department of Health and Human Services announced $28 million in grants to help with the treatment of substance use disorder, including a program aimed at pregnant and postpartum women, and expanded drug court aimed at directing people into treatment and out of the criminal justice system.

The Department of Energy announced $72 million for 46 hydroelectric projects across 19 states. This marks the single largest investment in Hydropower in US history.

The Senate confirmed President Biden's 175th federal judge. Biden has now appointed more federal judges in his first term in office than President Obama did in his, however still lags behind Trump's 186 judges. For the first time in history a majority of a President's nominees are not white men, 65% of them are women and 65% are people of color, President Biden has appointed more black women to judgeships than any administration in history.
