I know you're young, but you're also wearing a letter now. Do you reach out to Brock (about the trade deadline)? Do you talk about it, or?
We talked about it. But... not a lot, to be honest.

#quinn hughes#vancouver canucks#gif#You lose guys / You gain guys / They've earned to add a guy like thattt......#trade deadline szn = illusory nature of self-directed roster accruement and professional autonomy analysis#the parallel ambiguity of 4043's roles on this team does kill me because of how disparate their contract situations are right now#and like their presumed motivations i guess. but is it even... i don't know.#the way they framed this question to him after scalping out soundbites on the nux infrastructural implosion is so brutal lol#but there's still diplomacy there there's still love there there's still an older brother's instinct to accommodate there. lmfao#even if it isn't exactly reflective of the (assumptive) reality of the situation because who can really say at this point#i could write an entire essay. but i won't!

thinking about Shang Qinghua as a calamity again...
#svsss#shang qinghua#technically counts as tgcf?#just the idea of sqh dying and coming back is so compelling because in canon he literally just going through the motions. he's given up.#he doesn't WANT to die (from mbj's hand– from cang qiong's fall) but that's all he sees. it's the only end he can imagine to his story.#so the act of getting him to the point where he WANTS to stay– where it doesn't matter that death has come to take him he's not DONE YET is#revolutionary to his character (his ‟character‟– his role as well) in of itself and requires some canon divergence to justify it#and it's INTENSELY interesting to imagine him getting there#Imagine: An Ding is cruel. It is cruel and inefficient and its cruelties only make it more so. Sqh is ‟awarded‟ with the role of Peak Lord#of An Ding (this crown of barbed wire). And sqh doesn't MEAN to change the plot but– it's awful here! It's so awful that it's OFFENSIVE#and before sqh knows it two years have passed and An Ding is a mess of growing pains: of infrastructure torn down and rebuilt#but it's... better. It's hard work. It undeniably sucks and makes sqh cry from frustration all the time! Balancing the fixing of all the#shit his shizun left broken while staying on top of his usual duties is a procession of sleepless nights and little pains. (perhaps sqh has#growing pains too. change is hard for all that it's necessary.)#and then– and THEN! He's on his way to a trade meeting or spying for mbj or something else: it's doesn't matter.#And however the stage is set sqh dies and– sqh's life is finally starting to NOT suck! yqy has been asking for his future plans and sqh has#been answering. qqq found a scrap of a picture book he wrote when he was a senior disciple and demanded he finish it because it#‟had potential to increase literacy‟! He has a second command that he trusts won't stab him at the slightest provocation! His life is busy#and more than a little hellish but it's HIS. He's changed things even he didn't mean to.#An Ding's HIS. he got rid of the assholes and poured so much WORK into the people left and then the people who came later.#All of it boils down to this: it's unfair. it's too soon. it wasn't supposed to happen like this.#and so sqh dies for the second time and screams himself back to existence if not life.#the system cracking beneath his teeth– puppeteer turned to power for the puppet to consume.#(So there is a ghost on An Ding for all that only the ghost knows it.)

Worldbuilding Wednesday!
Hey folks, Arch here! Sorry if the Prompt's a little later than usual, school ends a helluva lot later these days.
Tell us a little about some piece or type of infrastructure which plays an important role in a society's daily lives! What does it provide for people, and how? Who created it, and how has it been maintained through the ages?
Tagging @athenswrites @theprissythumbelina @hessdalen-globe @caxycreations @coffeexafterxmidnight @thatndginger @avrablake @username-cause-i-need-one @prophetic-writer and anyone else who'd like to join in!
#writeblr#worldbuilding wednesday#writeblr stuff#worldbuilding#writing#Just wanted to say: the definition of infrastructure were going with is really broad#Anything and everything from public utilities religious gathering spaces commonly used 'systems' for trade a la the Silk Road#Go ham

on episode god knows what of me putting the main 4 players in situations: i think they would explode if put in a capitalist society long term
#they think there is benefits to some things like prepackaged food and premade clothes but then you get like#money. corporate greed. car centric infrastructure. paying to live in your own fucking home#they would explode#incidentally i think Groda's era of society did actually have a curency system in the form of gold coins#and i think in explaining that to the main 4 they just cannot wrap their heads around it#on that same note its the other way around where the players explain to her the concept of fair trade#and she cannot fully fathom the idea of the indeterminate value of an item or service changing from person to person#unstoppable force vs immovable object but instead#its the idea of an objective amount of worth in something through arbitrary means vs the ever flowing change in the idea of 'worth'#''What do you MEAN an amount of gold just determines how much made up power people have over others??''

found a kirby fanmanga series that does a very deep dive into the lore of forgotten land and im inhaling it all. also all the waddle dees are so so so autistic
#linked in source#its all japanese. as always. sowwy </3#sphere.txt#links.orb#LOVEEEEEEEE the characterizations in this one. intelligence (read 'autism') is off the charts#the handling of language is very very interesting too#im as big of a fan of cute wanya wanya poyo poyo silly whimsical kirby characters as the next person#but it just really gets me when like. for example#magolor asks kirby about the implications of giving the animals the concept of civilization (government trade infrastructure etc)#and warns that history will repeat itself. to which kirby gives an equally intelligent but also very trusting answer#like YESSSS TALK MORE ABOUT PHILOSOPHY. LINGUISTICS. ENGINEERING. FOLKLORE <-those are all in the series btw#its such a combo hit for me i love it#also their interpretation of the differences in kinds of magic that magolor (魔術) and marx (魔法) use is so cool....#inserts directly into brain#also also!!!! suzie (susie?? i forgor) characterization is so on point

Interesting thoughts from Peter Zeihan, a global analyst who is hired by many governments around the world to figure out solutions to complex problems.
To summarize this lengthy video, he believes most of the countries in Africa will not fare too well with America pulling back from the global stage, but he does cite a few prominent nations that will more or less be okay (at least economically).
Senegal 🇸🇳 is sadly controlled by France 🇫🇷 (latter owns their currency), so they will use that leverage in an attempt to dominate the country
Nigeria 🇳🇬 has a lot of infrastructure already built, & is too powerful to control. Zeihan expects foreign nations to approach the country with even negotiations.
Angola 🇦🇴 will probably be sought out by Britain 🇬🇧, France 🇫🇷 & Norway 🇳🇴, & each will attempt to control the country from the sides
South Africa 🇿🇦 will continue to be a power house economically
Kenya 🇰🇪 & Uganda 🇺🇬 may also embrace industrialization
Very good analysis overall.

love that because two idiots decided to fuck during an ice storm instead of playing a board game or doing literally ANYTHING ELSE i get to be forced to live during the decline of the us empire
#there's a certain irony to the whole thing rn of dudes apparently thinking about the roman empire every day#bc yeah i mean. we check all the boxes of during the collapse of the roman empire#extreme wealth inequality#crumbling infrastructure#waging pointless wars against any smaller nation over literally anything#the entire of our society's foundation is based on the exploitation of someone else ie the colbalt and lithium mines-#to the cocoa trade that thrives on child labor and countries we've absolutely fucked over with the whole banana republic thing#not to mention the plethora of other sweat shops that we get the majority of all our clothing from (just to name a few)#the saying goes rome wasn't built in a day#it didn't collapse in a day either. it's a slow drawn out process over years and decades and.....ugh#my only true fear is that like. rome didn't have access to nukes and we sure as hell do#negative#i wasn't sure if i would live to see the full on collapse of the us but i'm starting think i just might

OH. finally remembered my idea from the other night: ravio's part of a union
#libra.txt#(botw-era ravio btw)#listen. hear me out#albw!ravio's obsession with money + the horned statue taking money in exchange for spirit blessings#=? money has religious significance in lorule#AND since the horned statue believes in balance + equivalent trades#lolia would support justice and fair rights. lolian workers unions are goddess-protected#not that i really believe in big business or corporations in lorule#but. still. labour unions <3#also just got smacked with the idea of spirit tracks + therefore trains in lorule. railway infrastructure#no i have no idea what happens in spirit tracks

"ADVOCATED WOOD BLOCK PAVEMENTS," Kingston Daily Standard. December 17, 1913. Page 8. --- Paving Expert Addressed Board of Trade. --- H. L. Collier, of St. Louis, Mo., Presented Some Strong Arguments Last Night. ---- The members of the Board of Trade at last night's meeting were favored with an excellent address on the paving question by a well-known expert. Mr. H. L. Collier of St. Louis, Mo., who has had a large experience on the paving question, both in connection with. the United States government and in private capacities with a number of large American firms and cities in the Republic.
Mr. Collier went into his life work in regard to the question of street paying, which, he said, was attracting great attention in all the cities of the world. He gave a large number of statistics regarding wood block pavements, and claimed that their superiority could not be overestimated. The advantages of their use for paving he summed up as follows: Resistance to wear, dustlessness, noiselessness, non storing and non-radiating of heat, and ease of cleaning. These advantages would commend them to general use.
The lecture was listened to with great attention and at its close a number of questions were asked by members.
In answer to Mr. J. M. Campbell, Mr. Collier stated that wood blocks would stay down against a "T" rail as long as any other type, provided they were put down properly.
Ald Fair also asked where there had been success obtained with the blocks against a "T" rail, and in reply Mr. Collier instanced a number of cities in the Southern States, where they had been used.
A vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Collier for his able and instructive address.

Happy Wet Wooper Wednesday! Thank you @artsyunderstudy and @martsonmars for the tags and welcome back @tea-brigade!
I haven’t... written anything but papers and an article for work. (See the tags). I am still stuck on the middle part of Ljubim te and I haven’t shared anything from the later chapters that I have already written, because spoilers, but I think this is safe to share. After all, it’s already established that Quinn will visit. Here’s something from chapter 15. Psssst, psssst, come get your juice @blurglesmurfklaine and @thnxforknowingme:
Blaine also doesn’t have the time to think it through because Quinn, his fucking girlfriend, will be here any second.
“Blaine!”
Speaking of Quinn.
Blaine looks in the direction of the voice and there she is. Quinn. She looks like she’s from a movie, with her beautifully styled hair, her snazzy beret, black shining pumps and her matching dark red peacoat. Fuck, even her suitcase completes the look. She looks far too pretty for someone who’s spent hours in a plane.
Quinn is pretty. That’s what Blaine’s holding onto now. He’s always thought so.

i genuinely don't understand what capitalist countries stand to gain by fighting each other instead of collaborating economically. like why does the us warmonger against china when we would benefit more from trade? ostensibly it's for moral reasons, but regardless of the veracity of any given claim i think the united states has shown itself to prioritize economic success over human rights on a number of occasions especially during the cold war. i suppose i assume most wars are waged on the grounds of economic gain (natural resources, global political power, straight up money in the form of the military-industrial complex) but you could make an equally solid argument that just as many are waged over purely social and political issues- ethnic and religious conflict, blind nationalism, the whims of a dictator. it just confuses me at times, i guess. i have a hard time believing that the united states is bound and determined to wage war against china over human rights abuses, infringing on other countries sovereignty, and neo-colonialism in africa when we've propped up fascist dictators in many a country who've done far worse. is it literally just the association with communism? because surely whatever evil fuckers actually want war know that china is very far from communist right now. is it just nationalism? the idea that we must be on the top of the totem pole, even if our economy would stand to gain from trade? because i suppose i could believe that, but i think if that was true we wouldn't have gotten to where we are today in the first place. blegh. at the end of the day i am also ignoring the fact that many many different groups of people want war against china for reasons ranging from sinophobic jingoist nationalism to a genuine belief that the united states is a global moral watchdog determined to establish ~democracy~ worldwide. but there is a definite slant to media coverage on china right now, genuine attempts at disinformation, and given that the media in the us is so deeply tied to corporate interests it leads me to believe that there has to be some economic motive here, and it frustrates me that i can't figure out what it is.
#this post is long and convoluted and circuitous. sorry.#please do not try to like. publically own me or erupt into moral outrage over this post if you're reading it btw.#suppose i would be interested in hearing others takes on this but im just curious i genuinely don't have answers here#i don't want to argue or be accused of being immoral for not taking a hard stance on an incredibly complex issue.#anyway. i am also not trying to say that either the us or china are ' good ' or ' bad '#insomuch as any country can be good or bad. particularly a country millenia old or one that changes leadership every four years.#individual actions taken by each government are undeniably bad. yes.#but as a us citizen i find it very difficult to find reliable information about what is happening in other countries.#our media has become so wildly polarized that you can often figure out national issues by looking at both sides#but when the media is unified on portraying one falsehood both left and right? you're fucked.#often media that claims to be neutral could be more accurately described as western#i trust ap and the bbc on us politics - not global politics.#all that being said when it comes to things like the treatment of uighur muslims or the political situation in hong kong and taiwan.#i'm not entirely sure what to believe.#and i also believe that if every single immoral act the us claims china has done is real... we still wouldn't wage war based purely on that#...i do genuinely think the claims that china is colonizing africa by offering loans is horseshit though#even if it was itd be fucking rich for european countries that wrecked africa in the first place#to moralize about the means by which another global power allows them potential economic power#the problem arises from capitalism on a global scale itself i mean#there is no way to build up infrastructure and trade routes for an entire continent without#in some way eventually profiting from it#i do see the comparison to the us and latin america and i think that's kinda apt but#the way ppl talk about it you'd think they were doing what france did to haiti good god
