Going for the ugly at RIPTA
Proposed new transit center at Doorance and Dyer streets. (RIPTA) The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority has finally got with the program, or so it seems. It has apparently ditched its relatively attractive new transit hub on Dorrance Street for a plug-ugly center that checks all the boxes for what passes for the latest in contemporary architecture. Cheesy materials and even cheesier factory…

So I'm going to make another rant this time for Jackie Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. Enough with the corny, "she eats metal sheets," meme of Jackie. Okay, we all know she wasn't super gorgeous like Jessical Alba or Scarlett Johansson level, I get it. Jackie's teeth does remind me she drank coffee and smoked a lot. This lady has been through so much in her younger years. She lost three children before JFK's assassination. If JFK Jr. died before his mother on the plane accident she would have witnessed four of children's deaths. We all know she grew up rich and privileged, so she isn't "relatable" like Marilyn Monroe. This doesn't mean Jackie Kennedy never dealt with problems growing up. There are rumors that she was possibly a racist all because she didn't liked her wedding dress which designed by a black woman, but how come no one is mentioning Jackie invited a black female opera singer to the white house to perform when the black female opera singer was struggling financially? I know it's Marilyn Monroe's cult worshippers dissing and roasting Jackie Kennedy on a daily basis. But let me tell you this Jackie Kennedy had the right to be upset at both her husband (JFK) and Marilyn Monroe. It takes two to tango and Monroe knew he was a married man. Sophia Loren, Barbara Eden (I dreamed of Jeannie), Trippi Hedren, Olivia De Havilland, and Jean Simmons all rejected or decline JFK because they were aware he was married. He wanted to hook up with them, and those ladies all turned him down. So please do not come to me by saying Marilyn Monroe was 100% a victim when clearly she wasn't forced to have an affair with the president and his married brother (RFK). I also want to give Jackie major props for telling Marilyn Monroe on the phone since she kept on calling the White House and bragging to Jackie that she was going to steal her husband. Jackie didn't backed down nor was intimidated. She hold her posture by telling Monroe she can move in to deal with the problems while she moves out and does not have to deal with being a Kennedy wife or a first lady anymore. I say Jackie was ballsy. That was so gangsta of her. That was one bad ass first lady besides Eleanor Roosevelt and Dolly Madison. This woman has to witness her husband getting shot right next to her while her pink suit is dreaded with his blood and his dead body on her lap all the way from Dealey Plaza to Parkland Hospital. After that she has to take care of two children. She has to move out of the White House very quickly around the Thanksgiving holiday. So people saying she isn't strong enough or smart enough (Jackie spoke five different languages) is absurd. I don't think some people would be in Jackie's shoes especially the ones who are saying she wasn't a strong woman. People are also going in on her because she wasn't some kind of a Hollywood actress like Monroe. I don't think Jackie ever gave a (bleep). She didn't care about that Hollywood lifestyle, nor she cared Marilyn is a Hollywood icon. One thing for sure Jackie is not going to kiss certain people's butts just because they have that title. I like her punk attitude that she didn't care for celebrity worship culture. People are really giving Marilyn a pass because she was a blonde and blue eye Hollywood legend. Enough is enough. JFK and Marilyn were wrong. Jackie could have been killed on November 22, 1963. She was right there next to her murdered husband. And no one seems to care because she wasn't "hot and fine" enough. It is crazy to find out the last thing JFK saw was his wife's face before before getting shot in the head. Hopefully in the afterlife he thought about the things he put Jackie through here on earth. That he really had a good woman in his life. Sad just sad.
And by the way, I've noticed people are mocking JFK's death more often compared to Abraham Lincoln. I don't know because Lincoln is more respected (which I love how he is still respected to this day) or is because some enviousness is going on around here. Whatever it is stop with the corny JFK's jokes about his head exploded. Idk but it's giving jealousy and envy. Maybe it has something to do with he hooked up with Marilyn and other people wish they were in his position to do so. Whatever it is, stop with the mad corny jokes it isn't even funny. I'm talking to you Reddit users, TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram users.

THAT'S WHAT THE GOV'T WANTS YOU TO THINK! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!
I think I'm a lifelong cryptid enthusiast because I'm nearsighted. Like what do you mean the Zapruder film isn't crystal clear. That's how bigfoot would look to me anyway.

So this is the best I’ve been able to do with Prayer Man. Got definition of an ear and a hairline.
Unlike Badge Man where I just couldn’t see it, using the same techniques I did here, this is *clearly* someone the question is then who is it?
Per Bart Kamp there were 4 Caucasian’s working at the TSBD, three of which are definitively accounted for, Oswald is the fourth.
It could be a stranger to the employees of the TSBD, but again according to Kamp they testified there was no stranger among them.

"Computer, recreate Dealy Plaza in Dallas Texas on the day of November 22nd, 1963. Match local barometric pressure, wind speed and place the local time at 12pm. Place a single marksman armed with a Carcano Model 38 rifle chambered in 6.5×52mm in the book repository. Have the shooter recreate the exact shot placement necessary such that the same bullet strikes both President Kennedy and Governor Connally in accordance with historical records"
"The requested bullet trajectory is not possible under given conditions. Please change the given parameters to give the desired effect."
"Computer, would a single marksman with a single bullet be able to recreate the ballistic evidence provided by historical records from any position in the given parameters?"
"Negative "
"Interesting. Thank you computer thats all I need for now."

March Against Cop Campus!
From Atlanta to the Bay
Stop Police Militarization in our Communities
Sat Sep 30 @ 3pm
Kennedy Plaza in San Pablo, California (23rd St & Brookside Dr)
The City of San Pablo plans to build a $43 million police training center and shooting range for cops around the Bay Area. The people of San Pablo and the Bay Area oppose this expansion of police power because of cops long history of harassing, abusing, incarcerating, and killing Black and Brown people.
Show up and march with us against the construction. We need healthy communities not police! Together we can stop Cop Campus!

EPISODE 1
synopsis: the beginning of y/n's biggest kickoff role! paring: jujutsu kaisen actor au x y/n warnings: some cursing probably but either way, none notes: visuals are at the end of the episode and I recommend that you view them first
10:00 AM - NEW YORK CITY - THE PLAZA HOTEL (NEW YORK STATE, USA)
y/n sat on a chair in her hotel room at the Plaza Hotel in New York City
She had just finished up her MIUMIU photo shoot the previous day and was relaxing, enjoying her Belgian Waffle from room service, and watching a new episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians as her phone rang
She reached over to the chair next to her and checked the screen to see her manager calling
She paused the TV as she answered the call
"Hello?" she said, food still in her mouth
"y/n? Hello! How are you?" her manager - Kyube - asked
"I'm doing fine...enjoying the hotels room service while I can..what's up?"
"Have you checked your email yet?"
"Uhh which one? I have like 7 different accounts" she picked a strawberry from her plate
"The one where your audition results come through? Did you check it?"
"I mean I would if I could find my computer"
"Just do it on your phone"
"But I'm on call with you?"
"I'll tell you then. The role you auditioned for in Jujutsu Kaisen?"
"Yeah, what about it?"
"You got the part! You'll need to head to JFK immediately. Like today. I already bought your plane tickets and your flight is red-eye. I know it's ten in the morning but since you tend to wait until the last minute to pack but please do it now"
"Twin you can drop this all on me at once"
"I just did! You'll need to leave by 8 or 9 so start getting ready by one in the afternoon. Your flight will take you to San Francisco for a layover and then over the Pacific to Japan"
"Ooookay..so 17 hours?" y/n said as she yanked her pink suitcases out of the closet
"That's right! Oh, and I'll be meeting you at the gate at SFO when you land"
"Okay, thanks for letting me know" y/n placed her Hermes shopping bags on the bed and began to take the boxes out leaving them unopened and carefully placing them in her suitcases
9:00 PM - JOHN F. KENNEDY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - NEW YORK CITY (NEW YORK STATE, USA)
y/n waited by her gate after making it through the nightmare of security and baggage check
She tugged on her sweatshirt and sweatpants combo each with the Yankee logo. Naturally, she choose the most comfortable outfit for a 17 hour flight
Lowering her Yankees cap down on her head to avoid getting noticed as she ate her donuts from Dunkin'
"Gate 34, now boarding. Repeat: Gate 34, now boarding. Please proceed to Gate 34 should it be your designated gate" the announcement came from the loudspeaker and y/n wiped her mouth and threw out any trash in the nearby trashcan and she picked up her travel bag and walked to the gate
"Any passengers now boarding first class line up at the checkpoint. Repeat: Any passengers now boarding first class please line up at the checkpoint"
y/n moved over to the checkpoint and handed the flight attendant her boarding pass
The woman's eyes widened slightly as she saw who's name was on the boarding pass and y/n smiled slightly albeit awkwardly
"I'm a huge fan!" the woman whispered as she let y/n onto the plane
y/n quickly found her spot in first class and tossed her bag down and sunk into the plush chair as people began to board the plane
Before she fell asleep, a Twitter notification hit her phone but she was too lazy to check it, opting to sleep instead
9:00 PM (WESTERN TIME) - SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - SAN FRANCISCO (CALIFORNIA, USA)
y/n yawened as she got off the plane and looked around for her manager
"She should be here..." y/n muttered under her breath "hmmm...ah! There she is"
Kyube was sitting to the side in the lounge area typing away at her computer which was covered in NewJeans and Twice stickers that y/n had given her
"Kyu!" y/n called out as she walked to her manager
Kyube looked up at the sound of the girls voice "y/n! Hi love, how are you?" Kyube stood up to hug the girl. y/n was shorter than Kyube...probably since Kyube never left the house without her heels
Her manager was very beautiful and a former actress, but a past accident didn't allow her to return to her career
"I'm good, how are you?" y/n looked up at Kyube
"I'm doing fine, honey. Are you hungry? Our flight for Japan leaves in about an hour and a half, would you like to go eat?"
"Yes please"
"Alright then"
10:30 PM (WESTERN TIME) - SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - SAN FRANCISCO (CALIFORNIA, USA)
"Gate 5 now boarding. Repeat: Gate 5 is now boarding. Please proceed to Gate 5 should it be your designated gate"
y/n looked up from her finished plate as the announcement
"There we go!" Kyube stood up and took their plates to the counter
"On your feet, y/n. Time to go"
"Any passengers now boarding first class line up at the checkpoint. Repeat: Any passengers now boarding first class please line up at the checkpoint"
y/n walked to the checkpoint with her manager and Kyube handed in their boarding passes
They made their way into first class and y/n practically lunged for the comfortable seat, ready to sleep again
She put her headphones on and scrolled through the artists that she followed on Spotify to find one to fall asleep to
NOW PLAYING: ICHIKO AOBA ON SHUFFLE
She kept her eyes on the leaving city as they began to fly over the Pacific ocean
2:30 PM (ASIA TIME) - HANEDA AIRPORT - HANEDAKUKO, OTA CITY, TOKYO METROPOLITAN PREFECTURE (JAPAN)
y/n woke up to someone gently patting her arm
"y/n? y/n the plane is landing...time to wake up" Kyube moved her hand to gently pat the girls hair
"mmmm..." y/n rubbed at her eyes as she slowly opened the window and squinted her eyes to adjust to the light
Below them, Japan was coming closer and closer to the plane as it began the descent
"What time is it?" she said groggily as the plane jolted from it's landing
"2:30 pm" Kyube said as the plane slowed to a stop and the post-flight announcement came onto the loudspeaker
"C'mon honey, time to go" Kyube held her hand out for y/n to take and y/n did so hauling herself to her feet
The duo walked out of the plane and into Haneda Airport
"Are you hungry? I want to get a coffee" Kyube said as they walked deeper into the airport
"Yeah can we go to Dunkin?" y/n looked up at her manager
"Sure, but we need to get our bags first"
"'Kay"
The duo went to the baggage claim carousels and y/n placed her hands on her knees staring intently at the suitcases went by. It was a little impossible to miss her pink suitcase among the darker colored suitcases but it never hurt to be careful
Once y/n's suitcases came down the carousel, she hauled them off albeit clumsy and helped Kyube get her suitcases which were way heaver and larger than y/n's
"What on Earth do you have in those?"
"Shoes"
"Good grief"
Once they got out of the baggage claim area, they made their way to the food court to buy coffee for Kyube and donuts for y/n
"Kyube pleeeeaaasseeee!!!! pleasepleasepleaseplease!"
"No, you are getting one donut and that's it. Donuts and Tanghulu isn't a meal. You want strawberries? We'll get you a fruit bowl, but no donuts and Tanghulu together"
"Please...? I promise I won't wander around unknown areas or talk to strangers again!"
"My words are final"
"Aww man. But I'll take you up on that fruit bowl"
Kyube and y/n sat at a table in the food court. Kyube was working on y/n's upcoming schedule for and y/n was posting her dumb shit on twitter
y/n placed her phone down as she poked a piece of cantaloupe with her fork and looked to the side but she spotted two familiar people a few tables away
"Hey...Kyube?"
"Yes?"
"Who're they? They look familiar" y/n pointed a thumb to the somewhat familiar duo
Kyube looked in the direction that y/n was pointing in and squinted her eyes from behind her sharp rectangular glasses (the bayonetta glasses)
"Thats Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru...you've been in a movie with Geto once, you were young though"
"Huh...are they filming Jujutsu Kaisen too?"
"I can't tell you that"
y/n picked up her phone to scroll through twitter again and decided to eat her donut in three bites. Her eyebrows furrowed as she saw a tweet from a familiar name
y/n snickered and looked over her shoulder at Gojo and Geto. The former had moved his sunglasses onto his forehead and was gaping at his phone
'pretend like you've got no idea' she mouthed to Geto who nodded
"y/n please do not cause problems" Kyube scolded
"Alright...y/n, we need to leave now to get to the hotel in time"
"Okay" y/n stood up and threw out the now empty cup that once held fruit and the bag from the donut
She followed Kyube out of the airport and passed the table that Gojo and Geto were out giving the duo a shit-eating grin
Gojo playfully stuck his toungue out at her and she returned the gesture in the same playful manner
"Come along y/n" Kyube beckoned the girl "Our car will be here shortly"
"Coming!"
