#I'm done with this :')

[wowzasys]

im seriously thinking bout Canada as a new place to call home.

i watched the livestream of trump signing executive orders and answering questions from the press. here are some of the big ones + other things mentioned today:

trump declared a national emergency at the southern border + is getting the US military more involved in stopping "invasions including mass migration"

no one can declare asylum in the US

all existing appointments for people wanting to legally become US citizens are canceled

birthright citizenship (aka the 14th amendment) is now gone

ICE sweeps beginning "soon," not specifying when (though there are rumors it's starting tomorrow in sanctuary cities such as chicago)

mexican cartels are now designated "foreign terrorist organizations" and trump is not opposed to US troops entering mexico to eliminate them

he restored the death penalty for "crimes committed by illegal aliens"

biden had signed an executive order attempting to stop cops from using chokeholds or doing no-knock warrants. trump just revoked that order

25% tariffs on canada and mexico begin on feb 1 2025 — expect a lot of produce imported from mexico to get more expensive soon

tariffs on china will begin soon, not specified when

trump said he intends to take back the panama canal, did not specify when or how

january 6 insurrectionists are to be immediately released/pardoned

he pardoned the leader of the proud boys

tiktok has a 90 day extension, during which the US gov will try to buy 50% of tiktok. trump said he no longer cares that china is "spying on our young people," but he wants to buy half of tiktok so the US government "can police it a little bit, or a lot." if tiktok will not sell, it will be banned in the US again.

he claims the people of greenland want to become part of the US

he says the gulf of mexico is now to be called the "gulf of america" + denali is now to be called "mount mckinley"

alaska is to be mined and become the US' main source for fossil fuels

the green new deal and "electric vehicle" (green energy) mandates are over

the US has withdrawn from the paris climate agreement

the US has withdrawn from the world health organization

reproductiverights.gov is already gone

the US now "only recognizes two genders, male and female"

trans women prisoners are to be housed in male prisons; gender affirming care for prisoners is gone

self-identification for gender on passports, government IDs, and social security cards is gone

all federal employees are required to work in the office five days a week, no more working from home

trump said the US is going to "pursue our manifest destiny into the stars" and plant a US flag on mars

sources on what executive orders were signed: one two three

and lastly, some things that happened during the inauguration:

the pastor who blessed the inauguration during the swearing in ceremony has already announced a new meme coin/cryptocurrency

trump did not put his hand on the bible + there are rumors the pope is going to say trump is the antichrist

the wealthiest people on the planet — the CEOs of twitter/tesla, amazon, google, meta, and even the CEO of tiktok — who own almost all communication platforms used by westerners — stood directly behind trump as he was sworn in

elon musk, the wealthiest person alive, who has been given his own vaguely-defined US government agency, did a nazi salute on stage at the presidential podium. neo-nazis are already celebrating

Love how you had to do a call out post to get some attention. I didn’t even call you a slur, I called your character insert a slur. But I will now; go back to picking fruit and get the hell off this website, you pathetic wab.

Look, I don't know who the fuck this is, but you need to stop.

I've blocked the other account I assume you were behind and I'm about to turn off my anon option, again.

I have done nothing wrong, do you hear me? I have done nothing wrong to warrant such hateful language. I am nice to everyone unless provoked first. I am simply trying to live my life and find joy in my hobbies. Just because I'm mixed and my skin is brown does not give you a reason to target me or continue to insult me with slurs.

You need to get the hell off this website, maybe you'll find some peace out in the real world.

Your entire Misogynist Ford thing bothers me so much because it fundamentally doesn't understand the character of Stanford Pines. This is a man who's entire philosophy is based on differences and weirdness being good, there is no way anyone should fathom him being prejudiced in any way

And I'm not trying to say he's not a flawed person, but you ought to find flaws based in. you know. the characterization of the character

all of my analysis for this headcanon has been based on canon material and my own readings of his personality and knowledge on misogynistic ideology. i have also never once in my life met someone who doesn't harbor any prejudice against anyone at all and neither have you. even if that is his philosophy, that doesn't change the fact that he grew up in a situation that instills sexist viewpoints into a person.

also i don't see why this is such a hot issue while all other headcanons are fair game. i personally don't headcanon ford as trans because him being trans directly clashes with flashbacks in the show. yet you don't see people who make him trans being dogpiled with rhetoric about why they're wrong. it's the same thing in my opinion. it's just a headcanon; i've explained it multiple times and if it bothers you that much then just ignore it.

Your art style legitimately sucks I hope you know this

I have nothing more to say to people who dislike my art style. I have done NOTHING to cause this hatred yet people think it's alright to hate on the small creator. I am done being nice to these haters and personally, fuck you to all who hate my art style.

Badboy is never gonna take care of Pepito

Badboy NEVER took care of Bobby, because Bobby didn't need to, he died because the code was attacking and no one told Roier so he had to fight on the ocean alone, and because of his lag and Bobby's stubbornness

Roier took care of him on the week and Jaiden on the weekends and when Jaiden got too busy irl they started to give Roier the weekends as days of rest, but he asked the admins first (he did live on the weekends just to take care of Bobby before that)

Now did Badboy did nice things for Bobby? Yes, but they were just plus nice things, he never needed them, his dad gave him everything he needed and more

And now his feelings (Roier's) about Pepito might be mix but he's gonna take care and give him everything he needs, he plays with the eggs, he may down Pepito cause Roier doesn't think the eggs are fragile little things, the moment he sees there's any danger or something he could consider dangerous he's gonna stop playing around to protect.

Plus he doesn't trust Badboyhalo enough to take care of his child and he's not gonna be absent to be the need, and if the need was presented he's not gonna let Badboy be the one, right now it would probably be Etoiles (not to mention none of the other parents particularly like bbh)

I know you all love Badboy babysitter a lot but stop talking about stuff you don't know, if you don't know Roier then maybe just maybe don't comment on how is he gonna be as father and how Badboy is gonna take care of Pepito? Cause it's false, and if you don't believe me check the vods, there's proof.

Edit: I was not counting on the spider boy getting kidnapped, my bad!!!

i was tagged by @spacexbug & @its-opheliasgarden - thank you! tbh i didn't really like anything i did on this blog this year 🤷‍♀️ fact is i was pretty distracted most of the year and didn't have any motivation to create sims content... or any content really. 😅 unfortunatelly i don't think that is something that will change anytime soon. mostly because every save i start recently is immidiately broken by new updates - ty EA - & because i'm trying to write more, concentrate on friends and family and just use the time i have in between work to not get frustrated - get it EA?? sigh, anyways, here is the "not quite 24" pics from 2024 🪴

something wrong in this scene? no nothing.

I just like how dreamworks did their best to not let Ty or Revvit not mutter any word about "partner", I mean, in this moment is just PERFECT. and many others I remember with a more lovely language, or something like that. Good job dreamworks...but I fear it may not work with us hehehehe

never shuffle falsettos because i was listening to baseball game then what would i do played

[cantstayawaycani]

i'll try to summarize it, but basically, she accuses him of

taking his condom off without telling her

she says he looks out for women who are vulnerable to be with them and then he ghosts them

she calls poder prieto a sect bc their objective is to gain fame through it and not actually do something about racism

the other women she metioned in her original post (other 'victims') are from poder prieto, but she only mentions one actress that slept w/him bc she said it would help her career (maria elena says 'sleeping with him is like a rite of passage'), it was consensual though. she also said another girl told her 'he's super idiotic but he's trying to deconstruct himself. i know'

she said those ppl she mentions turned her back to her when she accused him

she accuses him of gaslighting and pity play (then she adds that poder prieto has been doing the same to 'take care of him')

basically that, then she goes on about her attack and statistics.

honestly i'm still processing but i think yeah, it sucks to be ghosted and feel used, but it's not a crime, that's just a man being a fucking jerk. the only thing that could potentially be a crime is the stealthing (but i don't think it is treated as one in mexico).

i guess now we'll have to wait and see what he has to say. i honestly don't know -if this is false- how he'd get out of it or make a proper response.

and not to make this about me but this is so fucking tiring, my dear. i need a hug.

WARNING -- THIS ASK MAY BE TRIGGERING

Basically, she accuses him of:

taking his condom off without telling her

This is rape. I won’t mince words about this.

she says he looks out for women who are vulnerable to be with them and then he ghosts them

More than simply fuckboy behavior, yes, this can be categorized as predatory. 

she calls poder prieto a sect bc their objective is to gain fame through it and not actually do something about racism

This is 100% apparent to me. I had a feeling about this organization since I started learning about Tenoch.

the other women she metioned in her original post (other 'victims') are from poder prieto, but she only mentions one actress that slept w/him bc she said it would help her career (maria elena says 'sleeping with him is like a rite of passage'), it was consensual though. she also said another girl told her 'he's super idiotic but he's trying to deconstruct himself. i know'

Again – this can absolutely be described as predatory. Culturally, in our patriarchal society, we want to call the "playboy behavior. of a "womanizer". A fuckboy. But as it is described in her statement, it is preying on vulnerable women looking for careers. The “trying to deconstruct himself” part seems to be what he tells himself and what he tells these women and what he has told us, and man, did we fall for it.

she said those ppl she mentions turned her back to her when she accused him

Again, this is typical of our societal culture that turns their backs on women who protest the continued normalization, rationalization and encouragement of this type of behavior.

she accuses him of gaslighting and pity play (then she adds that poder prieto has been doing the same to 'take care of him')

Not surprising now that the rest of her story is put in context for me. It's in the playbook of the abuse of women and the protection of men.

Elena’s character is of course being put into question. But two things can be true. She can have been a bad actor in other people’s lives and been preyed on and abused by Tenoch. Just like Tenoch can present to us a great man trying to champion others who has also been predatory, abusive — and if he indeed stealthed her or other women, I’m sorry but that makes him a rapist.

It’s shocking to me that there are some who still don’t see it that way. Who are even now, kind of naively writing these things off as “a woman scorned” who caught feelings, got dumped, and is now trying to get back at him. They don’t seem to see themselves as participants in rape culture.

I am guilty of it too. Before I read the (translated) statement, I was angry. Then I realized in a snap what the fuck I was doing. I thought about my mother. I thought about my sister. I thought about my aunts, my cousins – and myself. What Elena describes here is exactly the sort of things we have gone through, and even now have to watch out for, from men.

This will anger some people. But, that’s just the truth as I see it. Trying to rationalize and excuse his behavior by dumping on this woman and demanding that she provide proof is exactly what that is. You can’t prove stealthing. You can’t litegate it either.

You have to do the mental and emotional WORK to recognize the tendency to make excuses for the behaviors of men and to stop yourself from engaging in it.

Please, please please anon, don’t twist yourself into knots so you can hold on to the belief that Tenoch didn’t do this to this woman. 

“Is there proof?” No, and there won’t be. 

“Is it criminal?” Not technically, but stealthing certainly should be. It’s a form of rape. It’s non-consensual, unprotected sex. 

“Is it her word against his?” Yes it is. But despite how people want to characterize her, even if she is the most horrible person, if there is even a flying chance in hell that she’s telling the truth, that cannot be overlooked.

Give yourself peace of mind. Be his fan if you want, but accept that this is more than likely a part of who he is as a person.

I can’t support him anymore. I said I was waiting for more, but there is no more. I can't see anything happening legally unless it ends up like the Heard/Depp situation.

I am sending you hugs and love, truly, sincerely. And if this makes you and fellow Tenoch fans angry with me, I understand. But for me, life is too short. And I have other problems to deal with. The stress of this – something that does not belong to me? Is not worth it.

I need to get some sleep tonight.

.......

UPDATE because people continue to find this post:

Due to information uncovered about Elena as well as her own contradictions and discrepancies, I cannot support her claims against Tenoch. I no longer find her credible. If you want specifics, send me an ask.

[smokyquartz323]

I've been thinking since the news broke that trump won, and I have something to say: I hate him and his mindless sycophants. With every fiber of my being, fuck them all. May your existence be a curse upon you and yours. I hope your food burns. I hope your drinks taste like piss. I hope your plumbing fails. I hope you always stub your toes. I hope Murphy's Law takes a sadistic turn on you. May everything you touch wither away. I am beside myself with anger and fear. To everyone who tried to prevent him, thank you. For all who supported him, fuck you. May you all suffer for what you've done.

Why so hostile for no reason

I really, really hope that if you ever go to the backrooms, you never say that last message to a Partypooper, because I assure you, you will die in a painful way.

Seriously, you shouldn't say that. It's disrespectful, rude, and if I responded to that in character, it'd not be as nice. - Mod
