Really feeling the ‘it is what it is’ mentality lately

Tues 30th July

I'm so stressed it's just ridiculous. Of all the people I thought would cause actual problems around the wedding, I really thought it would be my parents and not Matt's 😂 They are just being awful, deciding now with a week to go that they don't want to look after Maggie and they want to stay at the hotel, even though we asked them literally like 8 months ago if they would have her and they said yeah sure whatever makes your day easier. Obviously it's now way too late to book her into kennels and also she would need a new vaccine which is a level of stress we are not prepared to out ourselves through the week before the wedding. Anyway I sat out in the garden tonight and drank gin bc all this was stressing me tf out and also work was crazy and also I fucking started my period when I had just started taking meds to stop it. Fuck this shit 😂😂

So I got inspired by @cornedbread 's idea that every Le has a unique tie, as well as the argyle thing possibly being a uniform. And then this happened.

He has an ascot.

Other details:

The sweater is a vest. Both it and the shirt are tailor-made, so there's no extra sleeve

Hair is neater with no hat

He desperately wants to turn the pants into shorts, and the shirt into a tee

I debated between pink, blue, and yellow-green. Blue is too close to Billy (teal), and yellow-green stood out too much. So he gets The Pink

The WNBA Players Union has officially opted out of the current collective bargaining agreement (CBA), two years ahead of its expiration. Both the league and the players union had the option to make this move before the November 1 deadline.

This early opt-out signals a pivotal moment for the WNBA, following the signing of a landmark 11-year media rights deal valued at $200 million per year. The players are now advocating for a new economic model that replaces the current system, which they argue imposes arbitrary caps on player value and benefits.

The union is calling for an equity-based model that aligns with the league’s increasing business success, ensuring that players benefit directly from the league’s growth. Other priorities include improving salaries, retirement benefits, childcare, and family planning resources.

“This isn’t some sudden wake-up call. It’s the culmination of what we’ve been driving for over the last several seasons,” said WNBPA vice president Kelsey Plum. “We’ve played a key role in the league’s historic growth, and now we’re breaking free from the current system to demand full transparency and an equitable stake in the business we’ve helped build.”

The union’s decision marks a turning point in the future of the WNBA, with players asserting their influence and demanding meaningful change as the league grows in prominence.

New Leaf Pro Design QRs - Billter Edition! Codes below.

Let's start with Billy. This takes influence from my personal design of his outfit (sweater collar matches in color, white shirt sleeves at the ends, dark backside with decorative buckle), but surprisingly, all 12 argyle diamonds made it in. Was not expecting that!!

Next, we'll venture into the submarine in the ocean, where his father Bob is! Funfact, while looking at his sprite, I noticed that Billter didn't remove the black tie.

So canonically you could say he has both it and the bow (I decided not to). Had to sacrifice one (1) button, but oh well.

Onto the sailors! I referenced Lithuanian naval uniforms:

And changed the colors so that it was more like the tones used in the game, producing this look.

Then realized I fucked up on Gonzalo's and had to change his to reflect his captain status (four 1/2 inch stripes, not two). Accidentally made him a Lieutenant for a hot second, my bad. I also initially tried using the 12 buttons like in the above reference, but it looked too silly and had to downgrade to the 8. And lastly it wouldn't be Gonzalo without his caplet (or are they shoulder pads? Who knows, it is a mystery)! (Edit of all time: Added the captain stripes to the other sleeve, and fixed the position of the bottom row of buttons)

Finally, deep in that abyss, is a creachure. Denied!! This one's a lot more cut and dry. My only real comment is that I decided to make the left sleeve more... Tied off? Hard to show with Animal Crossing designs but ah well.
