Stay - Nico Hischier
“If you're falling apart. You can't see through the dark. I will leave the light on, I will leave the light on. It's 3 a.m. and you can't find your friends (can't find your friends). I will leave the light on if you wanna come home, I will leave the light on for you “
- leave the light on, Johnny Orlando
Italics - flashback
Content warning: vom!ting, mention of trauma? lmk if I missed anything!
Head tilted back you slam the clear shot glass down on the counter. Liquor burning as it trickles down your throat as you swallow.
You can't remember the last time you were sober, or the last time you actually slept for more than forty minutes a night. The dark bags under your eye a tell tale sign for the lack of sleep.
All because you no longer have him.
It was you who pushed him away, your fear of commitment and the trauma of what your parents relationship was growing up. A sick joke they called love. There was no love in what you called home. Mere four walls with windows and a roof. It lacked everything that made a house a home. It gave you this twisted image of what love really was.
Then you met Nico.
He was warmth, joy, kindness, selflessness, everything that love is supposed to be and that if anything is the most terrifying thing you’ve ever had the chance of experience in your life.
Ignoring who you know is the love of your life, dark brown eyes bloodshot as he watches you fumble with getting your shoes on.
"Stay." Nico's voice breaks the silence. Cracks whatever wall you'd built up since you spoke the words I'm breaking up with you thirty minutes ago. His plea reaching your ears making you halt in your movements reaching for your jacket. You want to stay, god you really really want to stay.
Then the logical part of your brain shows it's ugly face and you know you shouldn't because he deserves a love you won't be able to give.
Tugging the winter coat over your upper body you pause with your hand on the door handle. Taking a chance you turn your head, two heartbroken pair of eyes staring back at each other with tears streaming down. "Goodbye Nico."
The music inside the club too loud, sweaty bodies grinding together claustrophobic, air too thick and you can't breath. Nico, Nico, Nico being the only thing running through your brain. The alcohol in your system feels like it's coming back up as you push your way outside.
Belongings and friends forgotten inside as you reach the sidewalk. Upper body bending down as you start throwing up your stomach contents on the asphalt. Acid burning your insides. Standing there for a while, forehead pressed to the cool metal of a lamppost trying to catch your breath. Dry tears on your cheeks, body shivering as the breeze hits the naked skin of your arms and legs in the dress you're wearing.
Your brain doesn't even have time to catch up with your body before you’ve pressed call on Nico’s contact, holding your breath as the signal reaches your ears. It doesn’t even reach the second ring before the familiar voice answers.
“Y/N?” He sounds shocked, as if he doesn’t believe the fact that you’re calling him and to be honest if you weren’t drunk and sad you wouldn’t believe it either. Taking a deep breath you hiccup before mumbling out a hey in response.
“Are you home?” You shouldn’t be calling, you broke up with him three months ago but the numbness of alcohol isn’t working anymore. Trying to forget him isn’t working anymore.
“Yeah, you can come over.” Is the only thing you hear before you answer with a thank you and the line goes dead.
Hailing a cab you give the driver Nico’s address, the fifteen minute drive feels like an eternity in your current state.
It feels like a walk of shame as you step out of the car, just without the one night stand part and you’re not hungover. Not yet at least.
You don’t even have time to raise your hand to knock before the front door of the apartment swings open. You’re met with the sight of Jack and Dougie when you raise your eyes from the floor. Another wave of nausea hits as you realise two of his best friends are staring at you with expressions you can’t read. Is it anger? Sadness? Or maybe it’s just disappointment at the fact that you’re calling Nico when you’re the one who ran away.
Shuffling awkwardly in place the two hockey players brush past you in the doorway, Jack only giving you a glance before they walk down the hall. Contemplating if this really was a good idea you don’t notice Nico. Leaning against the alcove to his kitchen, arms crossed over his chest as the takes in the sight of you. He can feel his heart clenching at your disheveled state, he knew you were drunk when you called. You had to be. Months without even as much a post on your Instagram and you’re suddenly calling him? Something must’ve happened for you to reach out and alcohol is the only thing that made sense in his mind.
He takes a couple of cautious steps towards you when he notices that you’re not moving from where you’re standing, hand brushing across the small of your back as he guides you inside. Closing the door behind you.
“I’m sorry, I’m so so sorry.” Your knees give out but he’s quick to catch you. Strong arms enveloping your shaking frame and tucking you against his chest. The feel of Nico’s sweatshirt, the smell of his body wash and lips against the top of your head only makes you cry harder. After everything he’s still here providing the same amount of support and love as before.
Nico shuffles across the floor with you still in his arms until he reaches the couch. Sitting down he pulls you with him, moving you around until your sitting across his lap with your head resting in the crook of his neck. You’re clinging to him as if your life depends on it and he can’t help but rub soothing circles on your back and run his fingers through your hair.
“Wanna tell me why you’re here?” He’s whispering, afraid that if he talks any louder he’ll startle you and you’ll leave again. What he doesn’t know is that you have no intentions of leaving, not this time.
Lifting your head up you stare back at Nico with big sad eyes. Nose red and stuffy from your previous crying, cheeks blotchy but he still thinks you’re the most beautiful living thing he’s ever seen.
“I can’t forget you. I tried and I tried so hard but nothing works. I got scared because you loved me in a way I thought wasn’t possible. The way you loved me so whole heartedly, it’s something I’ve never seen and-“ You don’t get the chance to continue your drunken rant before Nico’s leaning in and pressing his lips to yours. Cradling your face in his hands he puts all his emotions into it. The love, the sadness, the hurt of you leaving. All of it. When you finally pull apart he doesn’t go far, settling for resting his forehead against yours. Warm breath fanning across your lips
“You said loved as if I ever stopped. I didn’t.” Nervous laughter bubbles up from his stomach waiting for your response. Waiting for you to say that you love him back. Pecking his plump lips quickly you say the words you never thought you would get the chance to say.
“I love you too.” With those words said out loud Nico knew he got you back. And this time, this time you were staying.

I went down a YouTube rabbit hole of 60s kitsch pop music
One Tin Soldier youtu.be/o8JtNHGSO…
Written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, first recorded by Canadian folk group The Original Caste. A 1971 cover by Jinx Dawson, lead vocalist of Coven, became a hit in the US after being featured in the movie “Billy Jack.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Tin_Soldier
I’m pretty sure we had this 45 when I was a kid.
I never saw Billy Jack, although my 8th Grade social studies class did a table reading from the paperback version of the script over the course of several days. Our teacher, Mr. Geig, was a hippie. I also read the Mad Magazine parody.
Here’s a trailer of the movie.
youtu.be/bc9ef9RhD…
It looks … earnest.
“Coven” was a pioneering metal band that used occult themes, and introduced the “sign of horns” to metal.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cove…
“One Tin Soldier” is an example of a “strophic ballad,” where all the verses are sung to the same music.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stro…
It is also an example of the pop genre, “This song isn’t long enough so just repeat a couple of bits of it so it fills out the 45.”
Also: “Billy Don’t Be a Hero,” by Paper Lace (1974) youtu.be/T2seUCc3o…
Paper Lace didn’t succeed with the song—Bo Donaldson & the Heywoods recorded the hit version.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Don%27t_Be_a_Hero
Here are Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods. They are 70s-tastic.
www.facebook.com/BoDonalds…
However, Paper Lace—“reportedly the most successful band Nottingham ever produced”—scored a hit with “The Night Chicago Died,” which is a fun song and this is a fun video.
youtu.be/w2OFubG0d…
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pape…
And here’s “Knock Three TImes” by Tony Orlando and Dawn.

as you know ive been doing my daily reminders to listen to dark divine, but @violets-in-the-sunrise asked for more info and i realized that might be a good thing to share to get more people to listen so i decided to make it its own post ok here we go
dark divine a metal/metalcore band from orlando florida. they released their first ep/album(not too sure on the terminology) "halloweentown" september 30th 2022. my favorite song, run away, is on this album. they released their first full length album "deadly fun" on september 8th 2023 which is amazing and i have a signed vinyl. the band in comprised of lead singer anthony martinez(my husband),
guitarists jason mueller (it/its)
and robby lynch,
bassist jarret robinson,
and drummer triston blaize
they consider their music spooky and perfect for halloween. their lyrics are awesome and they have like the best screams ive ever heard. i first heard them live, theyre the openers for the vv/black veil brides tour right now, but after that their doing a few shows in germany i believe. they currently have 152.3k monthly listeners on spotify which is a shame because they deserve so much more, hence this post. if you wanna listen but dont know where to start i also have a playlist of all their songs in release/album order because you get a lot of repeats from songs being released as singles if you just listen to their spotify.
they recently made it into the top 20 billboard charts in two categories (#16 current hard music album and #19 top new artist album) and top 40 in another (#34 current rock albums). all in all they are an amazing band that deserves to make it big

My idea for a “Bob’s Burgers” theme park ride!
"The Bob's Burgers Movie Ride" is a 2-part interactive attraction that opened up with the new "Seymour Bay" section of "Disney's Hollywood Studios" theme park in Orlando, Florida on May 30th, 2025. This attraction and entire themed area surrounding it replaced the former "Animation Courtyard" area. The ride combines live actors, a tram tour, and a trackless ride system with some tracked segments where intense scenes occur. The ride is based off of the 2022 animated movie "The Bob's Burgers Movie" by "20th Century Studios".
For the first 6 months of its opening, due to it being an E-ticket attraction, the ride was only available to guests who utilized and got Virtual Queue timeslots at either 7:00am or 1:00pm via the use of the "MyDisneyExperience" mobile app. After the 6 months ended on November 30th, 2025, the Virtual Queue timeslots option got removed, allowing guests to board the ride normally via the "Stand-By Entrance", the "Lightning Lane" entrance, or "Single Rider" entrance.
The ride has garnered praise from critics and guest polls, with praise being focused on the ride's storytelling narrative, the use to 2 ride vehicles, the performances of the live actors, and the special effects. All of the original voice actors reprise their voiceover rolls for the purpose of the attractions.
Part 1: Location, Setting, and Ride's Entrance:
The area around the ride includes the restaurants of "Ocean Avenue", such as "Bob's Burgers", "Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria", etc over on the left side, an interactive show attraction on the right, and finally towards the back over a large manmade lake, a recreation of "Wonder Wharf" and various attractions featured from the cartoon. However, behind the "Scream-I-Cane" roller coaster, and towards the very back of "Wonder Wharf", is the main attraction called "The Bob's Burgers Movie Ride".
The exterior of the ride is a bright yellow rectangular-shaped building, with a larger, blue-painted hidden show building, which houses the main components of the attraction. The front facade of the attraction includes the name of the attraction displayed on a large sign in large red letters, an below the sign, from left to right, is a "Stand-By Entrance" entryway, a "Lightning Lane" entryway, and a "Single Riders" entryway. The left side of the entryways has a height measurement marker, and the right side of the entryways has a basic sign with various health-related warnings for guest, as well as a posted warning that some parts of the attraction are too intense for younger guests.
The "Stand-By Entrance" sign has a built-in "Wait Time" clock, and during the attractions opening months, virtual queues are utilized. After a few months, they are phased out, and replaced with regular "Stand-By Entrance" usage, the use of the "Lightning Lane" and "Single Rider" entrance, and finally, the use of "Disability Access Service" for guests with disabilities.
Part 2: The queue and pre-attraction lockers:
Guests proceed to enter through either one of the 3 queue entrances, and for the first part of the queue, all 3 go straight, being next to each other, all separated via metal chain-link railing. The queue itself is supposed to be a museum that Calvin Fischoeder had constructed, detailing the history of "Wonder Wharf" and his family tree. Displays within this part of the attraction include large, framed family photos and portraits fastened to the walls, a few family heirlooms on display in pedestals topped with glass cases, and framed legal documents, such as wills and testaments, old ride construction blueprints, and newspaper front pages regarding the Fischoeders.
Guests then proceed to move forward in the queue, all before entering another room, which happens to be a room filled with old artifacts on display, that reference episodes that the Fischoeders messed up in but didn't get in trouble for. Examples include a wishbone from the episode "Dawn of The Peck", a baseball ball and bat from the episode "Torpedo", and many more. This part of the queue also has several TV monitors fixed on the upper corners of the room's ceiling, showing news reports of the body of Cotton Candy Dan being discovered in the sinkhole from the film, Calvin's arrest as a suspect, and of course, his bail being paid by himself and his release until his trial later on.
Then, guests proceed down a left turn, leading into a large white-tiled room with brown walls, and a blue-grey ceiling. The room is filled with hundreds of small rectangular-shaped lockers, with the locker units/sections all lining the walls of the room, leaving a wide doorway for guests to continue going through. All lockers have their own set of park ticket scanners, and a guest must scan their ticket card or paper ticket's barcode in order for a random available locker to unlock and swing open. Guests must then put all loose articles and pocket items, such as cellphones, wallets, hats, sunglasses, purses, bookbags, souvenirs, reusable cups, etc. Items that can remain on a guest include prescription eyeglasses, contact lenses, body casts, prosthetic limbs, and anything else that is essential for the guest.
If a guest requires more than one locker for all of their stuff, they can ask a nearby carnie (a cast member), for a laminated "Locker Ticket" card, which is then scanned and allows another locker to unlock and swing open for the guest. Guests then must swing the lockers shut, and then proceed out of the locker room via the open wide doorway. If a guest's item is too large to fit into one of the regular lockers, there are larger ones available, and a credit card must be swiped before one can be rented. They are free for 2 hours before the guest's card is charged 2 dollars. These lockers are to be unlocked with a guests phone number being typed in via a keypad upon the ride being over.
There are also several metal sinks available, for if a guest enters with a souvenir cup that is full of a beverage of any kind, they will have to dispose of said beverages into the sink, and clean out the cups with the provided water faucets and paper towel dispensers, all before placing the empty cups in the lockers.
All locker tickets are then used at the end of the ride to unlock the lockers, and allow guests to get their stuff back. The lockers are double-sided, allowing guests to retrieve their items when the ride is over. Above the lockers on all 4 sides of the room, TV screens are fixed to the wall, with a pre-recorded message presented by Kuchi Kobi, telling guests all of the aforementioned rules regarding the lockers, with a concluded warning that upon exiting the locker room, all guests will proceed through a metal detector checkpoint to make sure they have nothing on them.
Part 3: The metal detector checkpoint:
Guests then proceed out of the locker room, and make their way to a metal detector checkpoint, located in a brown room with brown walls, a wooden floor, and a blue ceiling. There, a row of 3 metal detectors are set up, with cast members dressed up as carnies holding handheld metal detectors, to use them in case guests set of the metal detectors as they walk through it. Once the guests past through, if they don't set off the detectors, they're free to continue to the main ride boarding station. However, if the metal detectors do go off, the cast members check them over with a handheld metal detector for either melt buttons, belt buckles, zippers, or prohibited items.
If is just a piece of metal that is part of the guest's clothing, no further action is taken. However, if any loose articles that aren't essential are found, the guest is instructed to go back to the locker room and put it away into a locker. If the guest refuses, they will be denied boarding the attraction until they comply. Once they clear the guest to proceed, the guest continue and then enter the main ride's boarding room.
Part 4: The boarding area:
Guests then proceed down a straight section of queue, with this section of blue being inside of a straight room resembling a wooden room built out of wood of the pier, with the walls, ceiling, and floor made out of wood. At this point, an artificial saltwater scented can be smelled by guests, creating the illusion of guests being outside near the ocean, when the entire ride takes place indoors. Finally, guests enter the main boarding station room via a large wide open doorway.
The main boarding station is made to look like the beach area near "Wonder Wharf" at sunset, complete with a yellow-painted floor with a grainy texture to resemble beach sand, and orange-red-purple-yellow-painted walls to resemble the sky during sunset, complete with a projection of a sun halfway over the horizon. The ceiling remains black, and has metal rigging, colorful spotlights, hidden audio speakers, and hidden black cables, as they control the lighting of the boarding station room. Sounds of ocean waves crashing against the beach and sounds of seagulls making calling noises are played in the background, completing the illusion of guests being in an actual beach.
The boarding area's main queue becomes a single line, lined with wooden poles and rope railing, enhancing the theming of it being a beachside even more. The queue goes left, and then right, followed by a few more lefts and rights, all before reaching the far-end of the end of the room, where the main boarding station is located. The boarding platform itself is made up of 2 separate boarding sections, with there being 9 rows of long bench seats, with enough space for 8 people per row, all for a total of 72 riders per ride vehicle.
At that point, as guests approach the end of the queue, a carnie cast member assigns all incoming guest a row in one of the two boarding station waiting sections, with each row being separated by a metal railing, and the ends of said row being closed off at the ends by a small metal gate. After both rows are filled with 72 guests each, the first ride vehicle rolls up into the station from a tunnel on the right, all before pulling up alongside the boarding station platform on the left. This ride vehicle is a 1-car tour tram, similar in size and scale to the ride vehicles used on the ride "Skull Island: Reign of Kong" at "Islands of Adventure" in Orlando, Florida, only they're painted white, with a thick dark blue strip, and 2 thin yellow stirps. The sides of the tram also has the words "Wonder Wharf" tours displayed, in large red and yellow letters.
Both and left and right side of the tram have a series of automatic sliding doors that seal up on the ends of the rows, locking guests inside until they're unlocked by a cast member. The tops of each bench seat have a metal handlebar on them, allowing guests to be able to hold on tight during the ride. The front of the tram has a driver's hub, with a driver being on the left, and a speaking tour guide actor or actress positioned on the right. The tour guide is named Taylor, and is played by either a man or a woman.
Once the tram arrives in the boarding station, the automatic sliding doors on the left automatically slide open once activated by a cast member, and the gates at the end of the queue swings open, allowing guests to board the ride, sliding down to the end of their assigned row of seats until the row is full. Once everyone is seated, the gates at the end of the boarding queue swing shut, and the doors at the end of the tram's left side automatically slide shut. Then, the tram is dispatched out of the station, beginning the first part of the ride...
Part 5: The main ride (part 1):
The tram drives out of the station as the tour guide introduces himself or herself as Taylor, and she tells the guests that they're going to go on a tour of "Wonder Wharf", the backstage area of "Wonder Wharf", as well as the backyard of the Fischoeder Mansion, and some parts of the town. The driver then continues driving out of the station, entering a massive set that resembles "Wonder Wharf" just as the sun disappears over the horizon. Taylor then gives a spiel on the history of "Wonder Wharf", and how Calvin inherited it from his father.
As Taylor continues by telling the history of the many rides there, the tram's radio suddenly activates, and Calvin's voice comes on, calling out "Tram 1 Guide: Taylor. please come in!". Taylor responds back, saying that she/he has their tour group all safe and sound. Calvin then tells Taylor that needs him/her to do him a favor, and to pick up Grover, and then deliver him to his secret clubhouse, a place that he will give Taylor access to, so he can drop off some books on tape so he can go with his brother Felix on a "trip". Taylor agrees to this before being told here to pick him up from, and then hangs up the radio.
Taylor then continues to drive around the dark "Wonder Wharf", where she tells more of the history spiel, all before driving into a large set resembling the main road, passing many restaurant and businesses on "Ocean Avenue", and narrowly avoiding the sinkhole outside of "Bob's Burgers". Finally, the tram stops outside an apartment building complex, where a live actor playing Grover Fischoeder, wearing his gym outfit and with a brown leather briefcase, is waiting for them. The tram stops, and Taylor opens her door of the driver's hub, telling him who he/she is, an directing him to come on inside. The Grover actor then nods and climbs onboard the tram, sitting on a seat in between Taylor and the driver. Taylor then closes up her side door as Grover buckles up, and then, the driver continues driving through the massive recreation of Bog Harbor, turning around at a traffic circle, and then making the way back to "Wonder Wharf".
The tram then makes its way back to "Wonder Wharf" and then makes it way towards a life-sized recreation of "The Mole Hill". The tram then turns around a corner, and then, stops at a marked rectangular parking spot behind it. After Grover tells Taylor to have the driver stop there, to which Taylor and the driver complies. Then, Grover uses the radio to contact Calvin, letting him know that the tram has arrived. The voice of Calvin then gives the-all clear, and even invites the guest to join him and take a quick tour of his clubhouse. Grover then hangs up the radio, and then pushes a hidden button on his cellphone. This action makes the entire parking space below the tram suddenly slowly descend via a hydraulic lift.
The platform takes guests 2 stories down below ground level, all before stopping at a station descended to look like a concrete unloading station, complete with a rectangular-shaped tunnel of a short length, a few lights, and a large set of automatic double doors, all located on the tram's right side. The Grover actor then thanks Taylor for her service, and then gets off the driver's hub of the tram. He then opens one of the double doors, and disappears into the next setting beyond the doors. Once he closes the door behind him, Taylor closes up the door on his/her side, and begins to get ready to continue the tour. However, all of the lights suddenly go out, and Taylor freaks out over an unexpected blackout. As everyone is in complete darkness, some noises can be heard in the background, including the voices of the Belcher kids, Calvin and Felix Fischoeder, and then, Bob and Linda Belcher.
Taylor wonders what is going on upstairs, and attempts to contact Calvin on the radio. However, instead, she/he hears something very disturbing...Grover revealing that he is indeed the one who killed Cottan Candy Dan, as the events in the movie taking place in the clubhouse are going on in real time. Taylor, stunned by this, begins to record everything after pushing a "Record" button on the radio, and then tells guests there is a change of plans, and that after they get back up to the surface, they will rush over to the police station and turn in the recording to the police. At that point, Taylor suddenly notices that Grover left his briefcase in the driver's hub, and as the recording reveals both Calvin and Felix being forced into the submarine, and the Belcher kids making an escape by the clubhouse's secret tunnel, Taylor realizes that Grover will return for it in a moment, and is scared over facing him due to what he/she now knows.
However, as Taylor picks up the suitcase to get ready to return it to Grover without looking suspicious, she opens it by mistake, and a few paper documents come out. Taylor scrambles to gather them all together. As he/she does this, Taylor suddenly comes across one with Grover's well-plotted evil scheme listed on it, and begins to read it out loud to the guests, shocked by the moment as he/she goes on. Grover suddenly appears through the door, and then catches Taylor read the end of the list. Taylor then notices Grover, and freezes upon seeing him. After a few seconds, Taylor then chuckles nervously, puts the paper back into the briefcase, seals it shut, and holds it out for Grover to take.
Grover then slowly approaches the driver's hub, and takes the briefcase back. Upon doing so, Grover asks Taylor if she believed anything she was reading, to which Taylor chuckles nervously, saying he/she doesn't believe it one bit. Grover then says that he isn't convinced, and Taylor tries to reassure him that it is the truth. However, Taylor's hand accidently bumps the "Playback Recording" button on the radio, causing it to playback all that Taylor recorded. Grover then glares at Taylor, steps back towards the double doors, opens one of them, reaches his hand inside, and then pulls out a crossbow, aiming it at the tram and all of the people onboard. He then demands that Taylor and all of the guests put their hands up, to which the guests comply. He then approaches Taylor, aiming the crossbow at her neck, demanding that he/she unlock the tram doors, and for all of the guests to follow him off the tram, or else there will be "deadly consequences".
Taylor complies, and pushes a button that makes all of the tram's doors on the right slide open automatically, and then all of the guests, along with Taylor, proceed to all get out of the tram. Grover then pushes a button to get the double doors to automatically swing open, revealing the setting of Calvin's secret clubhouse. As the new setting is revealed, Grover then tells all of the guests that from there on out, they'll need to do what he says, or else they will get seriously hurt. He then mentions that he will have no problem firing his crossbow at anyone who doesn't listen to his demands. He also then tells the driver to not say a word to anyone, and he agrees to keep the secret. Grover then leads the guests through the doors of the clubhouse set, and this begins the next part of the attraction...
Part 6: The main ride (part 2)
Once guests enter the life-size recreation of Calvin's clubhouse, Grover grabs Taylor, and forces him/her to sit in a nearby armchair, all before taking out some rope and tying his/her hands up in front of him/her, warning Taylor that if he/she tries to escape or fight back, that he'll use the crossbow on her. He then forces all of the guests to stand around the circular golden railing surrounding the ocean hole in the center of the room, and to face the walls of the clubhouse. As the guests proceed to do so, Grover closes up the automatic doors, and then tells his guests all about his scheme, and how he is going to lock them up as he proceeds to burn down "Wonder Wharf", and then, he'll go off and finish the Belchers once and for all. During this whole process, the actor playing Grover doesn't break character under any circumstances, unless there is an emergency, or unless he's dealing with a guest being sponsored by the "Make-A-Wish Foundation".
The clubhouse setting is a full-scale recreation to the one in the film, and has everything inside, including a large steampunk-Esque submarine, a full drink bar, several framed vintage family photos, and the lady statue from the movie. The clubhouse also has a row of automatic sliding single doors that lead into a wide large, air-conditioned chamber resembling a supply closet, complete with a TV monitor built into the wall on the left, and fitted with another passageway door made to look like the wall located at the very back of each one. These sliding doors are arranged in a row, all in a semicircular arrangement using up half of the circular clubhouse. There are a total of 6 sliding doors in the clubhouse room, and each wide "closet" room can hold up to 12 guests at a time.
Grover then begins the proceeds of asking how many guests are in each group, and then assigning guests to standing in a straight line in front of each sliding door. Once everyone is assigned their closet room, the actor playing Grover is then given a hidden signal via his cellphone that the closets can be loaded with guests, and then uses a hidden control panel built into the wall to push a button that makes the doors automatically slide open. Grover then makes all the guests step into the closet room behind the doors, and then, as the guest face open doorway, Grover goes from door to door, saying that the guests should make themselves comfortable inside as this is the last room they'll be in before they perish in a fire. He then does a villainous laugh as he pushes a switch that makes the closet room door slide shut and lock.
The TV screen then turns on, and shows a live video feed of the main clubhouse room, where Grover is busy reading the fuse, and while Taylor is still seated with his/her hands tied up in front of him/her. Taylor then looks left and right for a way to escape and call for help, and then notices an animated Calvin Fischoeder appearing in one of the windows of the submarine that he and Felix are trapped inside of. They are actually being shown via a circular TV screen built into the submarine's windows to create the illusion. Calvin doesn't say anything, but looks at the statue, and then does a twisting motion with his hands, all while looking over at Taylor. He then proceeds to mouth the words "Open secret passageway", and "Escape". Taylor then gets the message, quickly rushes up to the statue, and twists the secret switches on it.
At that point, the secret doors at the back wall of the closet rooms suddenly automatically rise up to reveal a wooden passageway, leading into another circular room, which acts as the boarding area for the second part of the attraction. Taylor then screams for the guests to get out via the secret passageway, and that he'll/she'll hold Grover off so they can escape. At that point, as the guests begin to rush out of the closet room and down the wooden passageway tunnel, Grover notices this, and angrily tries to attack Taylor, only for her to try to fight back in a well-choreographed stage fight. It is at this point that the TV monitors turn off, leaving guests alone once again.
All 12 guests in each closet proceed to make their way down the passageway tunnel, all before making it into the circular wooden boarding station room, where the next ride vehicle awaits them. This ride vehicle happens to be a larger version of a clam car from the movie, only with no plexiglass dome, is a trackless ride vehicle like in "Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance", and there are 3 rows of seats, with 4 seats per row, allowing space for 12 guests at a time. The seats all have a single seatbelt that goes over the guest's lap, and a few posted signs about what to do and what not to do during the ride on the clam car. A ride operator is tucket away in a hidden control room behind one of the walls in the circular boarding room, as they're job is to dispatch the ride vehicles while having it look like the guests are on their own in a perilous situation.
Taylor's voice then comes on over the room's intercom speaker, sounding like he's/she's calling out to the guests while struggling to fight with Grover, telling them to quickly get on the ride, and make sure they're seatbelts are fastened. As he/she says this, Grover gets the upper hand, the intercom cuts out, leaving guests all on their own. Once the guests do so, a series of small doors on the car's left side automatically slide shut, and then, a hidden camera does a seatbelt check of the guest, signaling to the hidden ride operator if the car can be dispatched or not. Once the ride operator is given the all-clear to go, a hidden curved door opens up behind the guests at the back of the circular room, and finally, the trackless clam car vehicle backs out of the station, all before turning around to face forward, and then the real ride begins once the circular room's door closes back up again. As this happens, the sound of Grover bursting into the boarding station room, and yelling angrily "GET BACK HERE!" is briefly heard by guests as the ride begins...
Part 7: The main ride (Part 3):
The clam car then turns to the right, and speeds forward to begin the main ride. The clam car is an aforementioned trackless ride vehicle, but some scenes/sections of the ride utilize a track for the attraction's more intense scenes and elements that a trackless ride system can't accomplish. From here on out, the live actor playing Grover is no longer present in the attraction, but instead, animatronics of the Grover Fischoeder from the cartoon is present, with his original voice actor reprising his role for the attraction.
The clam cars all make their way forward, getting away from the row of circular boarding rooms, and then turning to the right, beginning the next ride of the attraction. The first room of the ride is a life-sized recreation of the underside of the "Wonder Wharf" pier, complete with hundreds of piles of various size, shapes, and colors of stuffed animals. The clam car speeds forward and makes its way around the piles of stuffed animals, but then suddenly, an animatronic of Grover driving the lobster car from the movie appears from between 2 random piles of toys, and begins chasing after the car. The clam car makes several sharp swerving turns in an attempt to get away from Grover.
However, as the clam car makes its getaway, another clam car appears in front of it, showing animatronics of the Belcher family inside, warning the guests to get out of there. The clam car then turns to the left, and then continues to speed through the maze of stuffed animal piles. Finally, the clam car speeds towards the end of the pier, but then another lobster car with an animatronic of Grover suddenly appears in front of the guest's clam car, causing it to quickly make a sharp left turn towards the edge of the pier's underside compartment. Then, to create the illusion of the clam car flying through the air, the clam car rolls into a special track system, and then speeds down a sharp drop, all while spinning around in circles at the same time, as the top part of the clam car can spin around or move up, down, and sideways via hidden hydraulic actuators.
The clam car then makes it down to a large recreation of the beach surrounding "Wonder Wharf" and "Ocean Avenue" at night. The ride's housing show building is constructed to have 2 large life-sized city recreations, with one being on top of another, and each one being 2 floors tall. The setting on the upper half of the show building is used for the tram tour segment, while the setting on the bottom is used for the clam car chase segment. All sets are life-sized for accuracy reasons, and to complete the illusion of both cities being visited at once, despite them being 2 totally different sets.
Once back on the beach setting, the clam car is slowed down via electromagnets, and then, the car slides back onto the "ground" surrounded by fake sand, and it continues its use of its trackless ride system. The clam car then speeds down the beach setting, and then speeding up the nearby stairs up to the "street" level, where the main town is located. This is done as another track fixture and some powerful electromagnets pulling the clam car up the stairway, and once back on the street level, the clam car returns to using its trackless ride system.
The clam car then sharply turns to the right onto the main street setting, and then speeds down Ocean Avenue, and past the sinkhole on the left, narrowly missing it in the process. Suddenly, as the clam car turns to the right at the end of the street, another animatronic of Grover in the lobster car appears out from an alleyway and tries to crash into the guests from the front. But the clam car swerves out of the way, and then spins around a nearby traffic circle several times. Then, the clam car speeds forward towards the "Wagstaff" school building, all before speeding up another set of tracks on the front stairway, and then bursting through the front doors.
The car then speeds down the hallway of the empty school, and then, suddenly, as the car speeds past a hallway with lockers lining both walls on the left and right side, Grover's voice is heard behind a row of lockers on the left, and suddenly, said row of lockers tip over towards the clam car, all while the voice of Grover is saying that he's going to crush the guests into a pancake. However, as the row of lockers tumbles over towards the guests, clam car suddenly makes a last-minute right turn down another hallway, all while the voice of Grover screams in the background, demanding the guests to "COME BACK HERE!". The clam car then makes its way to the end of the hallway, bursting through a set of double doors at the very back of the school, and after going down to the ground level via a small ramp, speed through the playground, and then through an open gate built-into the chain-link fence, onto the street.
The clam car then turns to the right, and continues speeding down the street setting. Suddenly, as the car speeds down the street setting and makes it down to an intersection, a random rig truck comes down a street from the right, and it narrowly hits the clam car, as an animatronic of a truck driver suddenly slams on the breaks, screaming "HEY, I'M DRIVING HERE!" to the guests. The car then makes a sharp left turn to avoid hitting the rig truck, and then proceeds to speed towards a large building construction site setting. The metal barricade fences are then "knocked over", and the clam car speeds into the construction site. However, as the car speeds through the site, an animatronic of Grover suddenly comes out from behind a parked bulldozer, and aims his crossbow at the guests, all before quickly making a sharp right turn and into a large dug-up hole in the ground, causing it to slide down a downward curved slope track, and then entering a massive setting resembling a swear that is located underneath the attraction's lower level, complete with a trackless ride strip positioned over a manmade sewer river of "grey water".
The clam car then speeds down the sewer setting, all while water splashes against the sides of the walls of the sewer. Grover's voice is heard overhead, screaming at the guests to hold still and to let themselves be killed. The car then makes a sharp left turn, and then, after another straight section of track, the car them makes it to a huge wall themed and painted to resemble a wall of dirt. The wall then "bursts" open, and then the car drives into a large recreation of the bottom of the sinkhole. Once the car drives inside of it, the car slides onto a hidden section of track with a series of high-speed rollers built into it. The track leads straight up out of the sinkhole, and back to ground level.
Next to the clam car on the left, an animatronic of the clan car with the Belcher family inside is positioned next to them, with flexible screens built into their clam car's dome window, showing the Belchers looking over at the guests with great concern. Bob yells at the guests to get out of there, as they're in big danger. Suddenly, achieved by a curved dome-shaped transparent screen right above the guests, Grover is seen in his lobster car, pushing the huge mound of dirt into the sinkhole, in an attempt to bury the Belchers and the guests alive.
And then, like in the film, Bob drive his clam car into the pipe within the sink hole, which causes a suddenly upward launch of the his and the guests' clam car, and as it launches upward and out of the sinkhole, the dome-shaped screen quickly slides open. As the Belcher's are "stuck" near the hole's entrance on the surface, the guests' car keeps speeding forward again, and then it speeds off down the road, and through an alleyway.
Once at the other side of the alleyway, an animatronic of Grover is seen attempting to sneak back into the gym via the window. But then he turns around, and sees the the guests, and then the car immediately reverses for a bit, and turns to the left down another alleyway path while remaining backwards. Then, the car speeds down a slope, and then, speeds through the local park, passing the lake and hidden sprayers lightly spray riders on the left side with mist. Then, after hidden a "rock" and going out of control, spinning in circles around the Ranger Station building, the car proceeds to speed through the park's heavily wooded area, and finally, gets stuck in a "ditch".
Then, another Grover animatronic appears with a chainsaw, and says that they're not going to escape alive, and proceeds to "cut down" a base of a tree. Then, right on cue, a massive animatronic tree begins to fall towards the guests. Suddenly, 2 thick branches sticking out of 2 trees on both the left and right side of the guests catch the tree, and save their lives. Grover freaks out over his plan failing, and tries to look around on the ground for his speargun. Suddenly, a large bear animatronic appears, and "nudges" car out of the hole, and the car begins speeding backwards again.
The car then spins around, and then, facing forward once again, speeds out of the park, and back onto the street. As it does, the car then rotates and then faces the left, and then speeds down the street again. After speeding a few feet, it makes a sharp right turn, and speeds down an alleyway. As it does, the car suddenly stops, and above everyone on the right, positioned on a metal fire escape, another animatronic of Grover is seen, aiming his speargun at the guests, all before taunting them. As he prepares to shoot, the car suddenly speeds backwards, and then, after "bouncing" off a mailbox, the car rotates to the left, and speeds down the road again.
The car speeds down the road again, and then speeds past the city, nearly hitting a nearby tree. By said tree, an animatronic of Mr. Frond is seen trying to coax his cat (another animatronic), Dr. Bojangles, to come down said tree. The cat nearly "falls" off the tree, and Mr. Frond yelps in fear, and then the car spins around in circles, and then, it speeds backwards, and then speeds down the city backwards for a bit. At another intersection, the car spins back around to face forward, and then speeds towards the "OMG Mall".
As the car reaches the doors of the mall, the doors are "slammed" open, and the car speeds all over the mall, with several "arrows" from the speargun firing at the walls, nearly missing the car by an inch. the car then drives through the food court, dodging tables and chairs, before finally, speeding up a "flight" of stairs via a track system, and then, after speeding all over th second floor, speeding into an elevator, and then elevator going back down to the first floor. The doors open, and the car speeds around the play area of the mall, and then out the back door, through the parking lot, and all as Suddnely, a motorcycle driven by Mudflap dodging them at the last minute.
The animatronic of Mudflap angrily says she's calling the cops, and the car speeds off some more, and the car drives back into the town, slightly turning left and right, looking for a place to go. Suddnely, a manhole cover in front of the car pops open, and Grover emerges, popping out up to his waist, and aims his speargun at the guests, evilly laughing about their fate, and readies to shoot them. Upon pulling the trigger, nothing happens, as he's out of arrows. Grover is stunned at this, and begins angrily cursing his defeat, and Suddnely several red, blue, and white flashing lights are seen, and sirens are heard, and several life-sized police car animatronics surround the scene.
The car then spins around, and then, with orders from the voices of cops, the car in a modest speed makes it way to the police station, all as some victory music plays on the background. As it does, Sargent Bosco's voice speaks and congratulates the guests for helping them lead Grover to them, and he hopes no one was in any danger or anything. Bosco then says that when the car comes to a full and complete stop, to unbuckle their seatbelts by pushing the bottom on the buckles, and to stand up, and carefully exit the car to their left, and head through the police station itself. The car then approaches the outside of a large recreation of the police station, and pulls up at an exit/deboarding station on the left, just outside the doors of the station. About 5 cars can be unloaded at a time.
Part 8: The Unloading Station, Exit Process, and Gift Shop:
The guests then exit the vehicle and as several cast members dressed up as police officers are positioned nearby, they thank the guests for being safe, and guide them in through the doors. They then follow several signs and makings on the floor, leading them past the receptionist desk, past the detention cells with animatronics of criminals locked up and doing nothing, and then, passing a desk where a live actor playing Bosco is positioned, ushering guests to move along and not waste his time. Finally, guests step out a back door, and walk through an alleyway, and proceed to walk down an exit queue made of police barriers.
They then proceed to walk through a small part of the town, before finally making it to "Wonder Wharf" at night, and the guests then are lead by another police officer cast member, telling guests to grab any stuff they put in the lockers before they're taken away by the police as evidence. The guests then proceed up an escalator marked "Authroized Carnies Only", and they made their way up to the ground level of the attraction above the massive set below. They then made it to the room where the backside of the double-sided lockers are, and guests use their park tickets and locker tickets to unlocks and open up the lockers, grab their personal belongings, and finally, they walk down a hallway of several pieces of displayed "Bob's Burgers" artwork and enter a large gift shop selling "Disney" and "Bob's Burgers" merchandise. on-ride photos can be picked up here, and of course, a set of automatic sliding exit/entry doors is where guests exit back outside into the park.

That last tier is a great piece of art – especially that last panel, where the art outside of the panel is just sketched in. It’s a great approach and really works. It’s also a sign that maybe this isn’t a YA story anymore. (Heavy Metal #310 2021 – Page 87 Starward by Orlando, Shavrin and Temofonte)

Who are your top 2-5 Music idols of all time (explain your level of obsession or passion you had for this artists work)?
Who are your top 2-5 Music idols of all time (explain your level of obsession or passion you had for this artist’s work)? Ok so I’m going to start with my childhood favorites in the 80’s and move on up since I’m gen x…Michael Jackson. I was literally like 5 years old with Michael Jackson posters and magazines and I danced a pretty decent robot for house guests. I loved to put on a good show. Watching the Grammy’s was like an event at my home growing up so when we saw him perform it was absolutely a moment we celebrated and stayed up to watch regardless of school. He was the best performer in my opinion, of all time. Watching the fan obsession was pretty riveting. Madonna. Period. This is when we started making up our own synchronized choreography as kids. I had all the rubber bracelets from every crank vending machine there was. I would roll around on the floor dancing to her music and dressed up like her. Never attended a concert though. Metallica- I had a huge crush on this fellow percussionist boy and saw he wore Metallica t-shirts so I started listening to metal for the first time and learned how to play “enter sandman” on the drums. I became obsessed with Lars Ulrich and had posters all over my wall that I kissed(I have this on video tape somewhere). Had the signature drum sticks and watched every home video they had. My dad took me to my first concert which was them, Guns N’ Roses , and Faith No More in 1992 at the Orange Bowl in Orlando which I still kept the physical ticket to. I just knew one day he would read my insane fan mail and meet me one day at that age😂😂Fiona Apple- words cannot express the musical genius in this woman. When “criminal” came on the radio I went and bought her cd and opened myself up to jazz outside of playing the drums in jazz band. She got me thru a tough young marriage and divorce(with When the Pawn….). I went to see her in concert in Birmingham, AL and sang every word to every song and was blown away by her Bill Withers and Ela Fitzgerald covers. After the concert we waited by the back door for her to come out to her bus with cd covers in hand for her to sign. She approached me and the world just stopped. Literally shaking, went mute, she signed, then I handed her a small gift(cute little Indian satchel). She actually took it and I put a note with my phone number in there telling her to callllllll me. Hahahahaha! 💀I was like 21 (not normal obviously). The singing skills I acquired from her gave me an outlet for life. Billie Eilish- I’ve learned that you can’t be too old to obsess about something you are passionate about. The music skills that Finneas and Billie possess are not typical or to be underestimated. I have been listening to her for 4 years and never thought music could bring me so much happiness again. After losing my husband (died almost 5 years ago) and trying to raise 3 boys on my own at still a young age I have found such peace in singing once again to my Billie. There’s something to be said about child stars that reach heights like this. With music comes power and usually these types of artists are what bring nations together.

Expert Metal Roof Installation Guide: Everything You Need to Know
Are you considering upgrading to a metal roof? Understanding the intricacies of metal roof installation is crucial for making an informed decision. From durability to energy efficiency, metal roofs offer numerous benefits that can enhance your home’s value and curb appeal.
Why Choose Metal Roof Installation?
Metal roofs are renowned for their longevity and resilience. Unlike traditional asphalt shingles, metal roofs can last 50 years or more with proper maintenance.

The installation process for a metal roof involves several key steps to ensure durability and performance. First, your existing roof will be inspected to determine if any repairs or reinforcements are necessary. Next, old roofing materials are removed to provide a clean surface for installation.
The metal panels are then carefully measured and cut to fit the dimensions of your roof. Each panel is installed using specialized techniques to prevent leaks and ensure a secure fit. Flashing is applied around roof penetrations such as chimneys and vents to further enhance waterproofing.
Benefits of Metal Roofing
Metal roofs offer several advantages over traditional roofing materials:
Longevity: Metal roofs can last 2–3 times longer than asphalt shingles, reducing long-term replacement costs.
Energy Efficiency: They reflect solar radiant heat, which can help reduce cooling costs in warmer climates.
Environmental Impact: Metal roofs are often made from recycled materials and are fully recyclable at the end of their lifespan, making them a sustainable choice.
Design Options: Available in a variety of colors and styles, metal roofs can complement any architectural style, from modern to traditional.
Maintenance and Care
While metal roofs are low-maintenance compared to other roofing materials, regular inspections are recommended to ensure their longevity. Clearing debris and checking for any signs of damage can prevent minor issues from becoming costly repairs.
Choosing the Right Installer
Selecting a reputable contractor with experience in metal roof installation is essential to achieving optimal results. Verify their credentials and ask for references to ensure they have a track record of quality workmanship.

North American Tour: 1000mods & The Well Live @ Bogg's Social & Supply
1000mods is a doom/heavy/stoner metal band from Chilimodi, Greece that formed in 2006, 1000mods consists of Dani G. (vocals/bass), Giannis S. (guitar), Labros G. (drums), and Giorgos T. (guitar). They have released four (4) LPs (Youth of Dissent being the latest release), three (3) EPs, two (2) singles, and one (1) split. If you are a fan of bands like Kyuss, Truckfighters, or Fu Manchu, then 1000mods is the band for your musical tastes.
On July 18, 2023 (just a few days after my birthday), 1000mods announced more dates for their North American Tour 2023 with opening support from Freedom Hawk, Valley of the Sun, Wizzerd, and The Well. For their Atlanta date, The Well (Austin) would be the opening support. What makes this tour very special for me is not only do I get to see a Greek band that I have been wanting to see for ages and who does not tour often in North America.
But I also get to see The Well who I have missed the last few years when they have played Atlanta, but the stars were finally aligned for me in 2023. I feel rather fortunate this year to have witnessed some amazing tours such as this one featuring 1000mods and The Well. Having the opportunity to cross two bands off your “must-see” list is special, especially in such an intimate venue as Bogg’s Social & Supply.
Check out this wicked setlist from 1000mods at Bogg’s Social & Supply below:
· “Road to Burn”
· “Pearl”
· “Electric Carve”
· “Warped”
· “Low”
· “Mirrors”
· “Into the Spell”
· “Vidage”
· “Super Van Vacation”
Check out 1000mods official Bandcamp page or their official webstore today and give my dudes some love!
The Well is a psychedelic doom/proto-metal power trio from Austin, Texas that formed in 2011. The Well has released three (3) LPs, two (2) EPs, one (1) split, and three (3) singles. The Well consists of Lisa Alley (bass/vocals), Ian Graham (guitar/vocals), and Jason Sullivan (drums). I randomly found The Well scrolling through Bandcamp artists sometime after the release of Pagan Science (2016).
The Well’s sound was like a mixture of Black Sabbath, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, and Acid King. The Well’s doomy sound had me hooked after my first listen to Pagan Science. Samsara (2014) and Death and Consolation (2019) are also incredible albums that you can listen to and not skip a single track. Now I finally get to witness The Well perform live and what a venue to accomplish this achievement in.
Head over to The Well’s Official Bandcamp page today and show them some support!
You can still catch 1000mods on tour in the United States on the following dates:
October 26th Levitation: Dead Meadow/Ecstatic Vision/1000mods Austin, TX
October 27th The Freedom Boom Boom Room Lafayette, LA
