Looking at responses to Crownslayer kit with people saying it is inexcusable to release such a terrible operator at the same time as people complaining Decadenza is inexcusable for being so powerful I feel is a pretty major showcase of how it is literally impossible to ever please people with any operator release ever.

genuinely people who are like ‘well you can’t expect us to boycott everything in the economy everything supports israel at this point 🙄’ shatter my perspective every time because we really do live such radically different lives that i can barely even believe we’re on the same planet. and you just know these people are 100% using this excuse to not boycott a single thing.

Thanks so much for the update. I'm not yet done reading it yet, well because..

I have a probably weird question.

Is glass considered luxury in your world? Hm glass is made from sand, which is basically crushed up rock - abundant in any livable planet. Wood checks out, in some parts of our world, it is already considered a luxury.

Sorry for being nitpicky. But the comments on real glass bothered me so muchhh I stopped reading and asked lmao.

But most will probably not mind this detail, so please disregard this.

Yea that's for now, I'll go back to reading the update.

glass is abundant and easily accessible in a lot of places, but on koreth where scytha has a full stranglehold on imports and exports, it's a luxury - there's limited movement of goods in and out of the dome, and as a company that manufactures a lot of military-grade plastic and carbon products (particularly for the dome itself), they simply don't trade much in glass, particularly decorative/untempered glass. no scytha interest -> limited import to a closed economy -> artificial price hikes for what does get imported :-) it's not totally unheard of, but in the operative's world it is an uncommon expense.

i’m at a point where i need obviously leftist content creators/celebrities/musicians, essentially anyone with a platform, who are too afraid to state a polarizing opinion in case they alienate part of their fanbase to pussy the FUCK up and stand for something. the adin rosses and sneakos of the world obviously don’t give a fuck and spout their ignorance with their whole chests, indoctrinating impressionable young people, meanwhile on the left we’re too mild mannered to talk politics. why? do you really want these people to consume your content? are numbers that important to you that you would sacrifice your morals?

Contlingency Contrat cleared... perhaps forever, since afaik they haven't run another one on CN yet. I think this strategy ends at 830, since even a little less Atk ruin's Virtuosa's timing. After that... well, the youtubers already have it covered.

I feel Yuhsia is a bit too good this CC. She hands you a bundle of points essentially for free, so that the difficulty feels like I've got 10 contracts unpicked even though there's only 2—which means there's nothing left to scale up into. And not using Lin would mean rebuilding the entire everything, which I just don't have time for.

At least she's paying for it by having to handle shift change with these two:

costumizing my braces part 2: vinyl boogaloo

(part 1 here)

look at me having the spoons and time to keep working on operation "make the braces not suck", in todays episode; adding the htv (heat transfer vinyl) designs

first up, the designs, theese were designed and cut out while i was at home for autumn break (before i was planning on making process posts about this project), so i dont have any pictures of my cricut or the weeding etc., but i do have pics of the designs i cut out

[ID in ALT]

to explain the text i used:

"are the gods truly this petty?": a phrase said by shadowheart in act 3 of baldurs gate 3 whenever her incurable sharran wound hurts. since her wound is on her right hand, and my right wrist is the one most likely to act up (and since bg3 has me in a chokehold like no other), i figured it would be a fitting choice

"d va da som svarte": written more or less phonetically according to my dialect, its hard to translate but as a phrase its simmilar (but not as "severe" on the swearing scale) to "for fucks sake" or "fucking hell". it goes on the left brace since i really fucked up if i need to use it

[ID in ALT]

for the transfer i needed to make sure i did not mess up the communal equipment, lest i be excommunicated from the workshop. so i put a paper towel under each brace to protect the ironing board from any possible glue, and i used some scrap muslin on top of the braces to protect the iron from the plastic and the dye (as yall can see from the second picture it was a good thing i did)

i ironed the designs from both the front and back of the braces for 30 seconds each, then another 30 seconds from the front, this vinyl is cold peel so i let one cool down while i did the other, i then removed the transfer tape and (because i dont trust the glue on this brand) ironed for Another 30 seconds with just the muslin between the iron and the design

thats it for part 2, part 3 (link found here once its up, or check the "operation make the braces not suck" tag on my blog) will more than likely be the stitching to re-attach the bits that fell off during the dying

What Is a Brand?

In my opinion, branding is these few things. The First Thing,Trust Your consumers have full trust in the quality of the services and products you provide. In the interaction with the brand, it can be using products or participating in brand-side activities, etc. Consumers’ expectations for a good experience are consistent with what the brand provides. The Second Thing, Responsibility Brands…

(i understand i am late to the own impromptu fic-fest i am only half modding, but its the heart behind it that counts.

presenting my submission to: Harry Buys Sirius Presents ft. Remus (and also They Can Be Jewish) Fest.)

--

It was almost worse when Harry knew the answer for once wouldn't be no. That was one of the first things Harry learned about Sirius when he came to live with his godfather. Sirius rarely said no.

Potpie for dinner? Yes.

A day at the seaside? Yes.

Help with a Charms essay? Yes.

Harry's world had blown wide open with all the yes's slowly learning how to navigate a guardian who was kind and cared. And if Sirius ever said no, it was for a good reason. It was to keep him safe. When Sirius said no it was because he loved him, truly, not out of spite or bitterness or greed the way the Dursleys had told Harry no.

And this particular request, Harry knew would be a yes. Sirius wouldn't even blink.

Because the second thing Harry learned after coming to live with Sirius was that his godfather loved to spend money on him. He had asked for pocket money once that term before the first visit to Hogsmeade and Harry swore he could feel the room shake with how quickly Sirius reached into his pocket, pulling out all the galleons he had and pressing them into Harry's hand. Only to be followed by another small satchel of galleons coming through post the next morning, landing on the breakfast table with a thud.

Sirius was generous.

Sirius was kind.

Harry only wanted to return the favor. Which is what he was thinking, as he stood on the outskirts of the sitting room door, twisting the hem of his shirt in his hand, absently wondering if he could just tear it in half because merlins sake it was hot in here, wasn't it? All the fire and the wood burning, the house was warm, and Harry was sweating. About to ask his godfather for money to go Christmas shopping shirtless.

"Alright there, Harry?" came a gentle voice from the side of him and Harry was surprised he didn't jump. Having gotten used to being in a house with two people who didn't yell or scold.

"Just great," Harry said feebly, pulling his sweaty hands away from his shirt and looking towards Professor Lupin--Moony. Remus? Professor Moony. Harry hadn't quite figured out what to call him, every time he attempted an odd sort of combination of all three names spilling out-- Proony. Remessor.

"Are we spying on Sirius for a reason?"

"He does weird things when he's alone...hums made up songs."

"He's always done that," Remus said fondly, casting a glance into the sitting room where Sirius was tidying away, a soft hum of a made up song carrying above the crackling wood fire. "We used to make fun of him for it. Did it in exams too, and James and I would take turns elbowing him."

Harry couldn't help but smile, nerves disappearing a little, "I think he's alphabetizing books..."

"I can't elbow him out of doing that," Remus mused, his hands going into the pockets of his trousers as he leaned against the wall, "Whatever it is you're going to ask him, Harry, I'm--"

"Thats the problem, see."

"Sirius?"

"Mhmm."

"Well...I'm not Sirius."

Remus wasn't Sirius.

"...Do you think you can help me get to my vault?"

--

Christmas morning arrived, after Harry had spent hours waiting for Sirius to go to bed so he could steal wrapping paper from the closet downstairs. Up until that moment, Harry had never found it annoying that Sirius seemed to be awake nearly all the time, his godfathers presence providing a sense of security that Harry never had. But it was pretty damn obnoxious when Harry was attempting to be sneaky, trying to do something nice, and his godfather was around every corner. Putting finishing touches on cookies; setting a timer for the roast in the morning; adding more presents under the tree.

But despite how tired he was the next morning, Harry couldn't help but lean into the joy spreading throughout Number 12. From the records playing, to the sticky-buns Sirius had made for breakfast, to the gifts that Sirius and Remus had thoughtfully picked out and bought just for Harry.

"Should we go have lunch?" Sirius said, clapping his hands together and making to get up off the sofa. "I don't know about you but all this Christmas cheer is making me starved and considering I was once in prison, I think I'm an expert at--"

"You're comparing eating three hours ago to Azkaban?" Remus asked at the same time Harry opened his mouth to say,

"I have one more thing!"

More blurted.

Sirius looked toward Harry with small smile, "One more?"

"For...you," Harry managed, before pulling out a horribly wrapped box that had been hidden behind a stack of couch cushions the duration of the morning, Harry panicking every single time Sirius got too close. It's a fort! Harry had offered as the worlds worst excuse, but Sirius didn't question it.

"You didnt need to get me anything, love," Sirius said gently, looking at the box in front of him, "I'm happy just to be here."

"I know I didn't but...I...did anyway, so you might just have to...deal with that."

Sirius snorted out a laugh before running his fingers underneath the seams of the paper, followed by the cardboard box.

A pair of patterned purple socks.

Because Harry remembered when Sirius saw a dark purple coat in the store at Diagon Alley and said what a great color

A blank journal.

I've just run out of pages in my old one, remind me to pick one up, would you, babe?

A book.

Oh this was my favorite to read when I was your age

A wrench

I need more tools to keep fixing up the bike, I thought I had a box somewhere...

What did you get person who gave you everything?

Harry wasn't sure. But he knew he remembered everything Sirius had once said he liked, taking notes on his favorite person the way Sirius had apparently taken notes on Harry.

Sirius looked down at the collection of items now open in the cardboard box, before slowly looking towards Harry, smile as wide as the ocean on his face.

"I love every bit of this."

the thing is that fascists are utterly spineless and vile. they won't even own up to what they are. they don't think twice about spitting out fascist rhetoric, but it's so offensive for them to be called fascists because that's a strong, loaded word (so you know that there's nothing to be proud of about being a fascist? so you understand that one should take distances from fascism?). in this fucking country people will feel violated when asked "are you antifa?" and will either refuse to answer or give a non-answer, while going on about how much they feel personally attacked when someone calls them fascists. politicians. members of the government.

at this point just own up what the fuck you are. be honest. be aware of what your words and actions mean. but no, and that's just how small and spiteful these people are.

[apollos-boyfriend]

I am giggling so much at the Mianite poll, the kids do not know how utterly insane it was

NO BECAUSE THAT POLL IS GENUINELY HAUNTING ME. like i KNOW what the answer i came up with is…. but did i come up with it??? did it actually happen?? the more i read the tags the more i gaslight myself into believing i accidentally only wrote actual events

[godblooded]

a brand new moment in my life that’s left me flabbergasted about how shitty people can be is absolutely my uncle getting angry with me for spending money on glasses.
