FYI his stupid birthright citizenship ‘control’ laws will target ‘legal’ migration too. Right wing voters like to say ‘well we’re not unreasonable, we don’t oppose legal migration’ but that’s gone. If you’re a worker or a student on a visa (and many workers will, in fact, be on visas for a long time, a decade even, because the American system for residence—a ‘green card’—is so long that people have been in queue for years), your children born in the US will not be citizens anymore under Trump’s executive order. A child born and raised in the United States, having known no other home, is not going to be a US citizen. This is something that had been protected for decades— one of the requirements to running for president in fact is being a born citizen. Will that also change now, if people fucking born in the United States cannot be citizens of their own country?

I don’t trust right wingers one bit. ‘Oh you’re so unreasonable, you’re so paranoid’, they’ll never acknowledge that this is what republicans meant to do all along. Blur the lines between ‘legal’ and “illegal”. Make it so vague that of course people left to draw their own conclusions will go ‘not white = illegal’. They’ll never claim knowledge of what they’ve done. They’ll never stick to their word and rally to protect ‘legal’ migrantion, no. That goes against their milk christofascist panacea, doesn’t it? It’s just a bonus if everyone else suffers too.

Fight like hell for every child. Fight for every single one like they’re your own. There are no lost causes. There are no children worth leaving behind. There are no ‘illegals’ if you know what’s good for you.

A beginner’s guide to not looking like a bot

Step 1. Getting a pfp:

Most people will block blogs that have no pfp. If you don’t want to get by many people you need a pfp! here’s how you do that.

Make sure you post things as well. You don’t have to make original posts if your lazy, you can make a blog that’s just a reblog dump for things you like.

hello i am so in awe that you have collected all the pokémon games (i finished my collection of 3ds ones a bit ago but i considered a lot of the other ones out of reach) and i was wondering how long it took? i know especially the older remakes are insane to get so i’m super curious

(This got incredibly long i'm so sorry for the wall of text my guy)

In relation to this post

Hello there! :D

Believe me, I still can't believe it myself that I managed to pull it off considering who I had to get ahold of! Been happy dancing to myself ever since I got the last game~

God it feels like it was longer ago honestly, but I only really began trying to finish the Pokemon collection just a year ago! Had to check back in my DMs with my buddy, but the day I began to seriously search for the rest of the authentic generations was May 5th 2023, the day I discovered my copy of Platinum was a repoduction, ya watch ONE video regarding reals vs. fakes and it all went down from there when I looked over the ones I owned already, luckily Platinum was the only one who was fake ;w;

I had passively over the years been picking up games as I went, but from that day last year til recently I looked where I could for the games I was missing, to be fair I had about half the collection to begin with just from growing up and finding ones out and about, I only needed to find the pair of whatever I owned already, besides gen 5.... since I somehow never played gen 5 growing up. Funny enough I didn't have to look too far, every single game I found had all been local! Facebook marketplace saved me big time I just had to wait and compare prices til I was happy with what I was willing to pay for! I scrutinized every single copy I got my hands on and triple checked everything before I was satisfied XD

The 3DS titles were very easy to get thankfully, and the same goes for you too good on ya for getting your 3DS ones! Hardest for sure were gens 3-5, specifically ALL of gen 5 they are the WORST to get since no one wants to sell them and they're required to be able to move anyone forward to the 3DS and then to the Switch! I think It'd be easier to list who I owned and who I hunted for in the year of the search.

So I owned:

Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Leafgreen, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, X, Alpha Sapphire, Moon, UltraSun, Sword, Violet and Arceus (some I had gotten as gifts growing up and others I had gotten through yardsaling and thrifting by chance as I grew up, Emerald was 70 at a yardsale!)

The ones I got from the year of the hunt:

Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, Platinum, Heartgold, SoulSilver, Black, White, Black 2, White 2, Y, Omega Ruby, Sun, UltraMoon, Shield, Lets Go Pikachu, Lets Go Eevee (I DID own Eevee before but traded it in before the hunt) Scarlet, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl.

Now knowing who I had to get, we all know it costs a pretty penny, so I essentially sold things myself to fund the hunt, like my amiibos I didn't really need or want, a handful of random collectable things I picked up and kept over the years (notably a masterchief helmet from the legendary collection I got for free like 10 years ago lol) and some odds and ends I didn't need anymore and to declutter the home! I think out of my own pocket I only paid maybe 40 bucks total so I paid for everyone that way! It was all mostly luck finding everyone and keeping an eye on marketplace, and some of them I had gotten from folks I knew! Black and Black 2 actually came from one of my managers at work who sold them to me for insanely cheap, and Sapphire I got for free as I mentioned in the games post XD

If you do try to go for the complete collection, I say have a gameplan for how to pay and build that piggybank of funds, go for what you can afford! So if you see a game without a case thats usually better, you dont NEED a case or have a game CIB really, a bunch of mine dont have a case or box and I'm alright with that! Look locally at second hand stores, vintage ones, marketplace or any other local yardsale or fleamarket type thing you may have in your area, and I say this with caution, but if you HAVE to, you can consider ebay, but I strongly suggest not to when it comes to the games. I had originally tried to get a Brilliant Diamond copy from there and well, dude never sent it at all and got my money (ebay fully refunded me but that still bites). And finally get well versed in learning how to authenticate to the best of your abilities, 3DS and switch I don't think can be faked but everything else can be! I used this as my guide to figure out who was real and fake in my search and it worked very very well! Twas my bible of knowledge

End of the day it didn't take as long as one would think, but luck played a HUGE roll in this endeavor, I was smart with my money, and I was very very VERY stubborn and wanted them all XD

If you go for the complete collection like I did then I wish you the best of luck my friend! And thank you very much for the ask! It kinda got away from me while typing but yeah thats the story and process of how I got all the main series titles!

OMGOMGYY AUGSHSHBS THANKUALLL SOMUCHHH

Random personal thing, it's literally so funny that in my first post I thought kirby was just a lil hiperfixation that will eventually fade over time- someone in the tags of my first post said that hiperfixations never truly go away- they're so right

Anyways- thank u all so much for sticking by!! I can't wait to come up with more art and ideas in the future :D

I desperately need ppl to understand that a black actor playing a character only ever played by white people in the past, is vastly different from a white person in fandom race-changing a very bad white character into a black person so they can claim people are racist for not liking them and that being black makes said character's sexual assault and harassment plus other nasty behaviors acceptable for [incredibly racist reasons omg]. Especially if you aren't even black yourself, wtf?

These are not the same situation. Not even remotely similar.

One is just a person doing their job. The other is a fucking twat who can't handle that a character they like is bad and has haters, so they make up some kind of self-righteous headcanon to justify themselves because they think 'black people get away with everything' and this makes the character impossible to criticize.

while writing im always like why tf do i spend so much time researching the most innocuous details what nerd cares abt this shit but then i read a short story and go UMM why are the cherries in bloom in mid august #immersion broken. that is to say i am my own worst enemy

[shalomniscient]

sevchino req! im in love w how u write sm oml. how does arle spend time w her children? would u say that arle is willing to play tea party w estelle while wearing a tiara/anything of the sort? 🥺 ueueue,,,,father-daughter bonding time please,,,

AAAAAAAA THIS IS SO CUTE LSHHDKSJDS 🥺🥺🥺 papa arle has my whole heart (and daddy arle has my whole pu— *GUNSHOTS*)

ANYWAY arle is so indulgent to the kiddos i feel. estelle was always roping arle into tea parties, though her tea parties weren’t always the most… conventional. arle gets her own tiara ofc but she’s not a princess, no, she’s the royal advisor. estelle has a kingdom of toys and by god will she run it. of course, arle takes her duties as royal advisor very seriously. i could walk in and hear something like, “diplomacy, my lady, is how to be nice to people you actually want to stab” and that will be the most normal thing she’s said all day.

“love, are you teaching our daughter political machinations?”

“it is an essential life skill.”

“she’s three???”

“they are never too young to learn, dearest.”

noé, on the other hand, never really played as much. he had his own interest from the start, which was dance, and all he’d really want to do is watch the dancers perform. so arle takes him out whenever she can to go watch the icewind suite at the opera epiclese. noé is utterly enraptured every time, and could sit on the steps and watch the robots dance for hours until he gets tired. on the way home he’ll ramble to his father about the dance and arle will listen attentively until he falls asleep against her warm shoulder. arle keeps an eye out for any performances at the opera epiclese, specifically dance, and has a private booth claimed for our family every time. and when noé takes the stage himself later on, it’s the same booth we watch from.
