im not pleased today with the results of the votes to the european parliament in my home country, czechia, but im feeling hopeful as there's been a big rise of seats for the socdems and for the left, as well as the greens.

i couldn't vote this weekend as im still 17 but i think it's amazing we didn't have to pick between the lesser evils anymore, i feel a bright future ahead and hoping for more european countries to follow.

don't give up on voting, it's the most we can do at the moment, it's not futile.

stay informed and inform those around you.

Juan Soto's face says it all. Congratulations to the LA Dodgers on their second win of the World Series. We were so close yet, so what. In the Yankees favor, in the last two meetings in the World Series, the team that was up 2-0 lost the World Series. You all deserve a night off. That was a very, very exciting game. Great baseball!! ⚾️ See you all at Yankees Stadium 🏟 Let's go Yankees!!!!!

Run (part two) Chapter Thirteen

Coming to Ao3 soon..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rob stops to check his phone, reading the list of ingredients that Sarah gave him as he walks the supermarket aisle, a metal basket in his other hand.

She has a day off work tomorrow before returning to nights and she wants to cook, so he's made the foray into the world alone, for her.

The music they're playing is fucking awful, and so is the sound system they're using, it's grating on his nerves and making him even more tense in this place than usual, coupled with the sounds of children whining and the constant movement of people it's starting to feel like too much.

Despite the AC his t-shirt is beginning to stick to his back, but he's determined to do this, for Sarah.

He pictures her light hazel eyes smiling at him over the rim of her coffee cup that morning as she asked him, and something inside him softens a little. It's been a month and a half since he was assaulted, and he's aware that she's gently and lovingly pushing him back into normal life.

That's if it can ever really be normal, when people still approach him to say hi and ask for a photo, although they're generally pleasant and well intentioned. He doesn't mind that, it's a reminder that the majority of people are still harmless.

If he's alone as he is now, he's normally constantly aware of where other people are and how they're moving in the space around him, but right now for a few seconds his focus is distracted, reading labels.

When a large figure moves past so closely that they almost brush against him, his body is more aware of it than he allows himself to be consciously, becoming still and tense as the hairs on his neck stand on end and his heart beats out the time until they move away. He breathes out steadily to keep himself calm until they do.

Moving his gaze along the shelves in front of him he deliberately holds his nerve and makes his selection before placing the item from the list into the basket.

It's then that he sees the note.

It's lying on top of the shopping, a scruffy piece of A5 ripped from a spiral bound pad, folded in half.

After a swift glance around him and along the now almost empty aisle in either direction he takes it from the basket and gingerly opens it out.

The writing inside is an untidy scrawl, written in biro, the words like spider legs across the paper, and as he reads them the world folds in around him.

You were too easy.

paid like 15% of my credit card debt. i can see the light at the end of the tunnel

finally got the results and it's a triangular, the far right is leading and then it's the right wing and the left dude but since the leader of the party said the left would give way so that we can vote for the candidate with the most chances to defeat the far right i know what i have to do

[raidenbmei]

me: wow that deus ex machina with dan heng and jing yuan was kinda corny but fineee it looked cool so i'll accept that for once

me, a few minutes later: WHAT THE FUCKKKK IS HAPPENINGGG

[piracytheorist]

So, I had to go for the expensive option, because it was either "cheap but small, poorly kept and without even a pipe to connect a washing machine to (and yes here every house has its own washing machine, laundromats are practically non existent here) and you have to pay a hotel two more days until they're done painting it and connecting electricity and water" or "half your wage but twice the size and equipped with literally everything and you can go tomorrow and sleep in it". It's not a big town and it's not the ideal time to look for apartments, so my options were pretty limited.

I would have gone for the cheap option, if it at least gave me the choice to have a fucking washing machine (like, again, laundromats are not a thing here. Am I supposed to wash all of my clothes by hand for an entire year while working full time?) but the expensive one is more quiet, more secure, more comfortable, and much, much prettier. I don't even need to bring my own dinnerware, it literally has everything, even cleaning supplies. And I have enough space for guests! AND DOUBLE BED. I finally get double bed. I've never actually had a double bed for my own personal use.

It was a bit of a lot to take in but it's probably only for one year, and I've been so stressed that I think that "You know what, fuck it. I'm used to limited funds anyway. At least I'll be much more comfortable."

I mean, I'll still probably have more money left for fun and treats, even with almost three (!!) times the rent I was paying for about twice the wage I was getting. Not that much more but hey, it's something. Come October we'll see how we fare.

The Vexnos radiated power as Cub stood before it. He knew he needed to be here to finish off his work, but he felt woefully out of sorts still, and his memory was far from complete. The grimoire sat open before him, floating in the air, and the Time Stone sat in the gauntlet, waiting.

Only he could do this, he knew that. Partly because of how the magic worked, and partly because no one else had mastered the infinity stones the way he had.

He closed his eyes and tried to clear his head. The magic wouldn't work if he wasn't clear about what he wanted. Time magic was like that. If he lost focus or wasn't specific enough in his request, he could wind back more time than he anticipated.

He took the stone from the gauntlet and looked down at it, seeing his reflection in the light blue stone. It hummed with power, almost making him dizzy. This was the last thing he needed to do before he could wake up properly. Fix the magic he blasted himself with.

The problem was, he wasn't really sure how far back he actually needed to go. The last thing he solidly remembered was moving into Scar's treehouse. The rest after that was a blur, and he wasn't sure the stone wouldn't simply take him back to Hermitcraft if he did that. Well, okay, maybe not if he only used the time stone, but the possibility was there if he wasn't careful.

"It's been two weeks, if that helps," Scar said as he joined him in front of the Vexnos.

"Two weeks? Really? Geez. Is it exactly two weeks or are you just rounding up? Because I really do need to know exactly how many days back I need to go," Cub said.

"Uh, hang on." Scar went quiet as he counted the days. "It's been 16 days. Yeah! But go back a day or so on top of that just to be sure."

"Okay, will do. Anchor me, Scar. I'm not sure my brain is capable of doing this right, given how much I don't remember," Cub said.

Scar rested his hands on Cub's shoulders. "I'm not going anywhere."

Bdubs was finishing up some landscaping around the front of the mansion when False flew down and landed before him. Bdubs looked up and smiled, delighted to see her.

"Hey! Falsie! What're you doing here?" Bdubs said.

"Oh, uh, well, you see, it's about Cub. Has something happened to him? He hasn't been in Vexspace for days. Is he okay?" False said.

"Wait. You're a Vex too? Really?" Bdubs said, shocked at this information. "Well, I mean, if you are too, then you should know, right? You can't take that stuff," False said.

"Oh, yeah, of course! And you're worried about Cub hey? He's fine! We got the priests taking care of him. Just waiting for him to wake up now. Scar hasn't left his side this whole time, you know," Bdubs said.

"Oh, I don't doubt he has. Is it the skulk thing? Is that what they're fixing?" False said.

"Yeah, yeah, it's taken days and days to clear it all out, but I think we've managed to succeed. Well, I say that, but we won't know for sure until Cub's back. Hey! We heard something about Pix being infested with skulk too, do you know anything about that?" Bdubs said.

"I-I, er, haven't seen him around anywhere, so. I don't know. There is still a lot of skulk about, but I don't know if that's from Cub, or if Pix is adding more," False said.

"Oh, okay. So, uh, did you want to come in or something? See Cub, perhaps? Not that there's much to see, he's sleeping in a locked room, so. But Joe's been cooking so if you're hungry, we could grab some food maybe?" Bdubs said.

"Uh, I mean, maybe, but I-I guess I could be more useful looking into Pix, right? See what's actually going on there? I'm not good at waiting for... Well. Tell me when he wakes, okay? I'll go back, yeah. Thanks for telling me what's going on, though, I'm glad Cub's okay," False said.

"Me too. Let us know anything important, yeah? Maybe we can help! We cured one person of skulk, maybe we can cure Pix too!" Bdubs said.

"Maybe, yeah. Anyway. I'll be off. See you around, Bdubs!" False said.

-

Cub became aware of a pounding headache first, followed by the rise and fall of his chest as he breathed. He felt like he'd been squahsed by a boulder. Everything hurt. He wasn't awake yet though. Far from it. Just vaguely making touch with his body again, and it wasn't pretty.

-

"We can find no traces of skulk anywhere. He's cured. I feel safer letting you in now, but still, be careful. We have no way of knowing what he'll be like when he wakes. He may not remember much," Naos said as they left the room to tell Scar how Cub was doing.

The relief on Scar's face was palpable. "Oh, thank god. I knew he'd pull through. Thank you, thank you. Oh, man. I'm so glad he's going to be okay," Scar said.

Naos smiled. "You got him through this, I'm sure of it. The connection between you has never felt this strong before. Go and sit with him. I see no reason to keep you apart any longer."

"That's very kind of you, thank you. I'll call you if anything more happens, okay?" Scar said.

"Of course, we're not leaving him unsupervised just yet," Naos said.

-

Scar pulled over a chair from the brewing set-up on the far wall and sat beside Cub's bed. Cub was still sleeping, but Scar could tel he wasn't as deep.

"Hey, Cub, it's been a while. I've missed you so much. I had to watch you from outside, they wouldn't let me in in case I got infected too. I dunno how much you'll even remember when you wake up, but it's been hard. I just hope you're okay. I want my Cubby back," Scar said.

Scar reached for his hand, just needing to touch him again. The connection sparked, flooding him with Cub's energy. He didn't always remember their meetings in Vexspace, but it didn't matter. He knew they'd done some work over there while Cub had been recovering, but it didn't matter that he couldn't remember the details.

Scar kept talking anyway. Telling Cub anything and everything. Mostly because he hated sitting in silence, and because he hadn't spoken to Cub in so long, he needed to get all his words out. Some of it was catching him up with news, some of it was just nonsense. It didn't matter because the more he talked, the stronger Cub's energy felt.

"Just... come back to me, Cubby, I miss you so much. I just want to hear that sweet, sweet voice of yours and get back to doing what we always do. I miss that mischievous little Vex of mine," Scar said.

-

Cub heard sounds. Indistinct sounds, but sounds nonetheless. He still didn't feel up to waking though, and lay there, body unwilling to move. How much time had passed, he didn't know. He wasn't really sure of anything. But there was a voice, and it seemed... familiar. Comforting. Gentle energy drifted through him, and his heart knew then who it was. Scar's energy seemed to soothe away the remaining fatigue from his body and he opened his eyes.

"Cub! Oh, my god, you're awake! Oh, thank god, I've been so worried about you!" Scar said.

"Scar. Hey." Cub turned his head in the direction of his voice and saw Scar sitting beside him. "It's my guardian angel."

Scar took Cub's hand in his, and Cub felt that sensation and the energy that flowed between them. "Yeah, that's me. It's just so nice to see you back. And wiithout all that skulk!"

"Yeah, yeah, can't keep me down," Cub said. "Just keep talking for a while. I'm just so tired still. Need time to wake up."

"Of course! Just lie back and close your eyes, and listen to my voice. I'll tell you a story, a story about a brave little Vex..."

The horrors laid claim on me and am now married to the state of being untethered from reality. I have also gotten addicted to oatmeal.

Last Year, on 8th September, 2022 (At that day, when Queen Elizabeth Passed Away), I was very Eager and Hyped to Watch the Star Trek Day Event LIVE at Post-midnight on technically next day, for Some Glimpse of Star Trek: Prodigy S1 Arc II, after a Great First Arc!!

But Yesterday, that wasn't even called The Star Trek Day after What Paramount and Nickelodeon did to Star Trek: Prodigy on Late July This Year!!

There was a Whole Pre-recorded Celebration Video of Star Trek Day, 2023 uploaded by Paramount+ YouTube channel, and they didn't mention any single thing about Star Trek: Prodigy, not even Once, not even during Star Trek: The Animated Celebration Segment, showcasing Star Trek: The Animated Series and Lower Decks and that's it!! And they released Star Trek: Very Short Treks, 1st Episode on Star Trek YouTube Channel, which was I know it's not even Canon to the Universe, but it was not gone up to my mark!! And they again, advertised TAS and Lower Decks on Paramount+, but didn't mention Prodigy in the end!!

And The Host of the Event, Jerry O'Connell is saying everytime, that "You can watch all of Star Trek, exclusively on Paramount+, the home of Star Trek" and "There's Star Trek for Everyone", feel like lifeless, after Paramount+ unfairly cancelled and Removed Star Trek: Prodigy!! And this is not even a LIVE Event, so who cares??

And there's no update regarding Star Trek: Prodigy's New Streaming Home, though Dan & Kevin Hageman are saying that The Talks are still in Advance and Ongoing!!

So, I ask Paramount and Nickelodeon now:

"Listen to us, Paramount, Nickelodeon, and All those executives working at there, if you cannot stop listening to your Money Mafias, by which I know who those Money Mafias are, and if you cannot listen to our demands, and cancel every single animated series like Star Trek: Prodigy, and even Deserving Series before ST: Prodigy, then People will reject you from Everywhere!! So, can you please stop these blasphemies and start listening to us, the Audience, not just only Kids, because Kids won't tolerate you any longer, they are also tired of your cruel practices, and stopped watching TV and Streaming Platforms Now??"

Now, I am looking forward to either New York Comic Con, if things get any better for Star Trek: Prodigy, or waiting for ST: Lower Decks to end, Or We have to Try the Hard way, by waiting for July 2024, when The Animation Guild goes on Strike!!

This isn't Over Yet!! We will still Fight for Our Right, okay!! We will show those Money Mafias, that without us, they are Nothing!!

But in the meantime, I'm still trying to figure out to create A New Animated Series of mine, alongside establishing my Animation Studio, if we can't get Star Trek: Prodigy back and things in Animation Industry go even worse over days!!

Wish me Luck, and Just be prepared for anything!!

A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU

***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***

Blacked out part is my name.

I’m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too

AND

I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.

And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.

A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am
