when people refer to canon story-relevant kingdom hearts games as ‘spinoffs’ it makes me sad not only for the obvious reasons i always say but also bc like man i WISH this series had spinoffs. imagine what they could do if they had permission from nomura to truly go off the rails and ignore the greater canon for a second and just do some fun whimsical plotless thing in an alternate universe. imagine a fishing/boating game on destiny islands. kh fighting game. it is an injustice that we have been deprived of kingdom karts. can anyone hear me
#in terms of alternate gameplay and lack of reliance on plot#i feel like melody of memory is the closest thing kh has actually had to a spinoff#but even that is important in its own way in the end#union cross to a certain degree as well what with being an online multiplayer gacha type game#its original concept i would definitely classify as a spinoff game#bc it was set in a totally different world and time period and was supposed to be about customization and fun with friends#and nomura or someone said it wasn’t meant to be connected to the plot#but then like. he did very much go and give it a plot. like he went back on that almost immediately#and even then. given that the game is still very much combat and exploration#even from the beginning can it really be called a spinoff? it’s just kh in a different format#i’m talking like a game in which the objective is something totally different.#racing game or cooking game or fighting game or (another) rhythm game#ace attorney style detective game. dancing game. dude i don’t know#there are so many different flavors they could go with here#alas nomura is allergic to genuine whimsy which is hilarious given that this is a disney series#like he apparently was like ‘ohhh should we really let sora in smash? would it make sense in the story?’#my brother in christ surely we’re not supposed to interpret this as canon to kh right? right????#i guess it’s just that the kh franchise has a very specific pristine vibe he wants to maintain#which is disney shenanigans as a seasoning on top of a main dish of Stone Cold Serious Anime Plot#kingdom hearts#kh#mine: kh

God I hope that environmentalists, conservationists, zookeepers, etc. can figure out a way to unionize. I have no clue how a strike would work bc that would lead to our life's work being destroyed. If we stopped protecting these animals, ecosystems, etc. they would die. But it's horrible that getting a paid job is so freaking difficult bc you have to volunteer first, many positions require at least a college degree, and then when you finally get the job you're paid squat. Zookeepers usually have at the very least a bachelor's, most have doctorates. And get paid bupkis. But if we try to fight for higher wages we are called selfish and we are taking already limited resources away from those who need it most. Accredited zoos have to make difficult decisions to protect endangered species all the time, such as the Copenhagen Zoo deciding to put down a genetically invaluable Giraffe in order to make space for others.
I was able to ask one of the previous directors of the national zoo, "what is being done to insure fair wages for zookeepers, and expand opportunities to those who do not have the resources to volunteer?" I think I surprised her, but she said they were having workgroups and meetings on that issue. I believe that the national zoo has recently opened internships specifically for those with little experience, especially people of color, so that they can get training that will help them break into the field. I think they are paid but I'm not sure.
I don't think it's selfish for us to want to be able to afford rent, food, maybe a vacation once in a while too. We need to take care of ourselves so we can take care of our earth the best we can.

ngl despite how much I love art that follows awful people in bad situations, I think my favourite theme in mouthwashing has gotta be the ways in which blue collar jobs not only involve intense amounts of physical labour but also mental and emotional labour, especially in the face of an uncaring and supposedly familial corporate sheen. like it's surface level, but it's good and it's real.
#my posts#like I know somebody who used to work on freight ships and even with unions there's just an attitude of 'get your job done'#and in mouthwashing I genuinely love how the pony express branding and policies and promises underline everything that happens on the ship#like it really isn't just set dressing#even if it's a surface level theme I just genuinely really like it#you can believe this ship is real because the specificity of the company and the ship itself just screams an actual fucking old ass freight

Vitalasubzam Week 2024 Day 7: Getting Back Together / Falling Apart
so this one is less either or both of those prompts and more something in between, basically zam weighing both his options regarding eclipse in his mind: leaving or staying
regardless of what he chooses though, subz is always his first priority -- if not in action then in mind
#lsshipping#vsz week 2024#vitalasubzam#mine.art#plus a bonus planet lol#so at first i wanted to do another dual illustration#more specifically of when zam decided to agree to go through with vi's bedrock prison and when solar union killed vi#but then i didnt wanna do that lol#also new s4 zam crown positioning#its not very clear at this angle + posing but theyre supposed to look like sun rays#i didnt do it before cause his humanized hair made it hard to see and basically pointless#but for his blob form i think its good#shipping tag

[Full Tweet by Streamr: Russell T Davies discussing Susan Twist's appearances in #DoctorWho Season 1:
"We ran out of actors actually, genuinely, there was a shortage at Equity. So we keep using Susan Twist for a lot of things just because we like her. and that's the simple reason why - there's nothing behind it. No mystery, no nothing [...] Yes, she keeps cropping up faithful viewers. Yes, we've noticed, and yes you've noticed. /end Tweet]
I need to know that everyone knows how ridiculous of a statment this is. How absolutely farcical.
The UK has thousands of actors. The majority of whom are in Equity because that's the UK's Actors Union. Equity has 50 thousand members. Granted not all performers are screen actors and even less are older women. But thats still A LOT OF ACTORS.
Yes the UK has like 20 actors with star power and 50 who get all the big roles. But there are so many people here trying to make a living off their art. Many of whom would kill to have a small role on Doctor Who or similar.
There are lots of actors who would fit the description of all of Susan Twist's characters. Especially considering most are small parts with minimal screen time/lines.
Doctor who is not short on actors. They are not isolated. They have experienced casting crew with lots and lots and LOTS of connections. There will be dozens of agencies scrambling to get their actors into auditions for every role made available!
The idea they couldn't find 4 different older women to play roles with only a few lines is absolutely, hilariously, patently false.
This is possibly the funniest excuse he could have EVER made okay. I need everyone to appreciate that. This isn't "haha probably a lie but possibly believable". This is the bold faced lie of a guy who isn't telling anyone SHIT.
Only 5 actors in the entirety of the uk indeed, lmao
#i need everyone to know how much of a madlad he is for saying this#like unless someone actively in the actors world/equity union knows a specific reason this could be the case despite all the odds#then it is the boldest and most ridiculous excuse he could have used#doctor who#dw spoilers#season 14#series 14#susan twist#rtd#russel t davies#dw

The Joost Klein Incident. The Dutch contestant, Joost Klein, has been disqualified by EBU, hours before Eurovision 2024's Grand Final, after Swedish police investigated 'backstage incident' in which the artist had allegedly made 'unlawful threats' against a female production team member. This last-minute disqualification is unprecedented in Eurovision's 68 year long history. And has occurred in the midst of the controversy surrounding Israel's participation in Eurovision after qualifying into Grand Final under the shadow of the ongoing Israel-Hamas War. Despite EBU statements that this incident did not involve any other artists or delegations, rumours have been speculating that this may be connected to Israel delegates. Joost Klein's entry, Europapa is one of the favourites to win the 2024 Contest and their sudden disqualification has caused outrage among fans, the Dutch delegation and other participating nations.
UPDATE: The Dutch broadcaster, AVROTROS has released statement explaining the incident between Joost Klein and a female camera operator. An agreement had been made prior to his Semi-Final 2 appearance to not film Joost Klein after his performance. This was not respected. After asking repeatedly to not film him, Joost Klein made 'threatening movement' towards the female camera operator but did not touch her. This then led to EBU disqualifying him. AVROTROS finds the penalty very heavy and disproportionate. The investigation is still ongoing.
#look...boycott eurovision or not .... this is absolutely BONKERS#and makes controversies with Finland's loss to Sweden last year AND the drug scandal with Italy in 2022 look TAME in comparison#this is the shortest summary that I can put together for the typical tumblr MEME NEWS announcement but....holy crap my hellsite besties#this iceberg is a deep one...#eurovision#eurovision 2024#joost klein#esc 2024#esc netherlands#europapa#european broadcasting union#ebu#this is gonna be a dumpter fire for sure...#also first time posting this specific meme#castiel meme

It's so much fun that after all the 'hey, make sure to give SAG-AFTRA the same level of support you guys gave WGA during their strikes' that SAG-AFTRA ended up leaping on the first chance to suckle on that misshapen AI teat.
A Voice Actor's Union would be so fucking nice right now...
#and by that of course#I mean a VA Union that is headed by actual VAs#who have perspective of what it means for that specific branch of the entertainment industry#not just being an offshoot of SAG-AFTRA and --hence -- being the easiest ones to screw over#due to many actors not seeing VA work as legitimate work#and just 'oh I'm famous; I can show up to a studio in my pajamas and give a half-assed performance'

I lowkey hate it when my brain reminds me at random times that Freddy is canonically in the custody of the Union bc I automatically think of this picture whenever I remember Freddy's situation
#dislyte#freddy dislyte#i like to imagine Freddy being stressed and paranoic in his cell bc the esper union believes in human rights and hes not used to that#like he was expecting neather jail treatment but he gets clothes warm showers and meals specifically made for him

i know for legal reasons black student unions cant prevent nonblack people from joining, but why would you as a nb person want to join a bsu in the first place? reminds me of the nonblack people who kept asking to join my black writers server so they could "observe" or "better understand black experiences" like um. time and place!!
#it just confuses me like. not that nonblack students cant interact with black students at awll but you can just like. fund the bsu#and support any fundraisers they do.#like i personally feel no inclination to join student unions of marginalized groups im not a part of because there are better ways to#learn about their groups that dont involve like. invading their personal spaces intended specifically to uplift and support them

Other groups in KH have solid naming schemes or motifs, things that group them together; the Foretellers have the sins and their masks; the Wayfinder and Destiny trios have their water, earth, sky motifs; and the Seasalt trio/the OG Organization XIII have the sigils; even the Celestial trio has the sun, moon, stars thing going for them (if Subject X is Skuld).
The NULs barely have anything within their names, or designs, or even motifs that connect them to each other.
(The only connections I can find are Ephemer and Skuld essentially having the same jackets, and Lauriam and Strelitzia both having flower motifs and each of those duos knew each other beforehand.)
Maybe that’s a way of showing the fact that they were never meant to be of importance, they were never meant to stick together. MoM just threw them together to make his trap believable. They weren’t renamed for their greater purpose, and they weren’t drawn together by destiny. Their destiny was to end up separated and their names reflect that.
#Loosing my mind about the implications for Ventus with this too#because we all know he never was meant to be one of the Union Leaders#Him finding Aqua and Terra is him finally finding the people he belongs with#I also love this fact from a world building standpoint#because yeah all these people have different homeworlds of course they aren’t named a specific way#like cohesively I mean#khux#sometimes i think about khux
