#admin: may 4 exchange

[eddiediaaz]

hi guys, i am kind of ashamed and embarrassed to have to do this, but i figured it can't hurt to ask. basically i am really struggling right now (i know a lot of us are). i need financial help, so i set up a ko-fi page ☕

any kind of help would be so appreciated and i am so grateful for anyone taking the time to read this little post.

long story short: because of situations completely out of my control, i lost my job in vfx after almost 8 years and i am now forced to switch careers. i'm going back to school and can't find a part time job even tho i have been working non stop for 15 years. financial aid will only cover my rent, so i absolutely need to work 20 to 30 hours a week to cover the rest of my living expenses, but it's really hard to find a job. i am also currently over 10k cad in debt from my film school loans and credit cards.

signal boost would be appreciated, if you can 💕

my situation in more details under the cut for those who are curious

i was working in the vfx industry as a 2D compositor since 2016 (i have worked on over 40 films and tv shows), but in december of 2023 i lost my job due to the hollywood strikes (as expected, and as it should—i fully support the strikes). this was supposed to be temporary for a couple months where i could get unemployment benefits (only 45% of my usual salary though). unfortunately, on may 31st 2024, my government announced that they are significantly cutting the funding & tax credits for the vfx industry where i live. what does this mean? mass lay offs. thousands of canadians and other people in the world working in the industry are losing their career, including me. there will only be about 20% vfx jobs left where i live by 2025. vfx shops and production houses have already started to close doors here. i'm still mourning this career i have been working in for 8 years and loved, even tho it's been difficult and demanding at times (lots of overtime), but there are just no jobs right now (unless you are a senior vfx artist with decades of experience) and the future will only get more bleak. i could move abroad and follow the industry that is already moving somewhere else, but i don't want to do that on my own (i am already super lonely as it is!!) and i can't afford it.

my unemployment benefits will run out by the last week of september. in 4 weeks. i've been sending resumes everywhere, both online and in person, but i am just not getting anything in return. even tho i have over 15 years of experience working in various jobs and i have never been fired from anywhere. even tho my resume and cover letters are solid because they have been approved my professional counselors (a free service for people under 35 where i live). so much for they're hiring everywhere...

since my vfx compositing skills are very niche and not really applicable to much else, i decided to go back to school, taking college classes in the admin and excecutive assistant fields, since it's something that i think would be good for me and there are lots of jobs for that here. i will be getting some financial aid, but it's nowhere near enough to survive. it will only cover my rent, and that's because my rent is super cheap for my city. my college classes start on september 30 and i am excited for it, but also very stressed because i still don't have a part time job.

i've been living on my own with a small salary for over 10 years now, but it truly is the first time that i'm struggling this hard. i honestly don't have anything worth selling except some taylor swift perfumes, which i sold this week. i also have over 6k of credit debt and another 4.5k of school loans left to pay. at the bare minimum i will need about $1.000 CAD/month to cover my other bills and expenses after rent, hence why the need for a job ASAP. i am desperate and my mental health has been a huge mess. this is why i decided to open my ko-fi accounts. not that i'm expecting much, but anything can help, i think.

i don't have much to offer in exchange, except gifs? i'm wondering if (cheap, low price) gif commissions are a thing? i have no idea know, but i set up a poll on my ko-fi page to see if anyone would be interested.

thank you for reading if you've made it here, it's appreciated 💖

[fuck-customers]

Kind of a fuck customers but also a satisfying story at the same time.

My role in the call center I work in involves taking specifically corporate calls, which means I spend all day talking to “business professionals” (and I use that term loosely) including CEOs. As you can imagine, over 90% of these CEOs are the scum of the earth and the most entitled assfaces on the planet.

A week or so ago, I took a call and went through my usual routine of greeting the cardholder and then began going over verification questions. Since we’re A.) a bank and B.) a bank that handles corporate and government credit cards, we take security seriously and require a caller to be able to verify 3 pieces of information based on what the person responsible for their credit cards put on the account. If they don’t pass, we refer them to their company to get the right details.

So as I’m doing this, the guy on the phone is getting increasingly irritated as he keeps getting the security questions wrong. I’m calm and professional the entire time but firm. Eventually I run out of things to verify with him and tell him that we won’t be able to assist and that he needs to contact his administrator. This is apparently where I went wrong.

“LADY I AM THE ADMINISTRATOR!!” He screeches. Ok, great. I look him up and that’s true but there’s a second admin listed, so I ask him to check in with him. He then yells “THERE IS NO OTHER ADMIN! I’M THE CEO OF THIS COMPANY FOR CHRIST’S SAKE!!”

I apologize and tell him while that may be true, he still got his security questions wrong and needs to reach out to his account coordinator then. This man then proceeds to scream at me for the next minute or so saying how we’re an awful bank, how he’s had problems with us for years, blah blah and how we have the worst customer service ever. Keep in mind, I’ve been nice and empathetic this entire time but also I’m not gonna lose my fucking job just because a guy in a suit doesn’t know his shit. I give him the email to his account coordinator and stress again that he needs to talk to them. Then this exchange happens:

Him: “So let me get this straight. You are saying you are REFUSING and UNWILLING to help me, right?

Me: “No, actually I’d love to help you, however we have these security procedures in place for yours and your company’s protection and cannot make exceptions for anyone.”

Him: “This is fucking UNBELIEVABLE! I’ve HAD IT with this bank!!”

Me: “Ok, I’m sorry to hear that. Anything else I can do for you before we disconnect?”

Him: “WHAT IS YOUR NAME? I NEED YOUR NAME. NOW.”

Me: *gives my first name and spells it for him even though it’s a very basic 4 letter name because I’m a bitch*

Him: YOUR LAST NAME.

Me: “We don’t give out anything but our first name for the safety of our employees.”

Him: *insert that condescending, pissed off chuckle middle aged men do when they’re mad here* “Well I’ll tell you what (My Name), when I close this account and pull my MILLIONS OF DOLLARS out of (bank name) and they ask me why, I’ll make sure to tell them that it’s (My Name)’s fault. And I will see to it that you won’t be able to get another job outside of the minimum wage fast food job or whatever you had before this. How does that sound?”

Me: “Sounds great. Now seeing as how this conversation is no longer productive or professional and threats are being made, I’ll be terminating the call, have a nice day.”

Him: “DO NOT HANG UP O-“

Me: *click*

And that’s how making rich, powerful men rage-cry became my new favorite hobby. Thankfully, I haven’t gotten any feedback on that call; not that I would, seeing as how I did my job exactly how I was supposed to. Anyways I hope I’m his 13th reason. ❤️

Merlinverse game compilation 1

A new skill??

@meepinmeat Alright so I'm spinning the wheel and it has spoketh with this prompt > Teaches a new skill to... Celestino

At most I can see Pirin teach him a new language?? Or weaving, making intricate tapestries if it piques Cel's interest. Sewing and knitting/stitching as a sort of just in case skill to have handy, you never know if/when it will pay off. Seeing as how Tino is a god/demigod... Vanya honestly doubts he can teach this funky Celestial man anything new or worthy to write home about.

Still tries! Or something adventure-related/travel wisdom?

Tea??

Prompt: Compare opinions about Lavinia with Starhawk

Well that's a funny situation, eh? @fujimomozane I can see for some reason Pirin ended up in Starhawk's Mythic House, likely chasing after an anomaly or just got it done with.. Or Merlin effed up again, either way here we are! Somehow the conversation goes to Lavi, and Vanya is trying no to gush about her - Like how well she's gotten with magic-wielding lately, or her combat prowess keeps growing (He's teaching her alll about combat. I mean it.) and how excited he is for her. (Dame and her hubby either bout to have their kiddo or already do.)

A chatterbox trying to suppress himself from babbling, let Starhawk actually get a darn word in, and apologizing about not letting him talk/chatting his head off.

A dance maybe..?

Prompt: Offers to dance with...Molpe

To be honest... He hasn't ran into Molpe very often or knows this magister well enough. May try to ask for a dance awkwardly in very broken Spanish, as he doesn't know the lingo. It's why he didn't teach Molpe a new skill as well- Not that Vanya doesn't like the Magister! Or is avoidant! ;-;) Pirin just really has no clue..

Bickering pt 3

Prompt: Playfully argues/banters with... Violyste

@magister-violyste Ahh yes, bickering or bantering. At least won't be an 'Edward Elric' moment this time around. Instead could be more of a back and forth of witty quips, exchange of knowledge. Pirin is known as a Burning star. Mind you, he's not quite regarded as a literal one... But who knows? Not much is known about the true origins of Night nymphs and many have speculated in the past for them to be actual stars, or star-spirits?? Simply these beings have some ties to the stars for sure in a way.

Bickering pt 4

Playfully argues/banters with...Zelda also known as 'Adherents!Soren bullying poor Mather again'.

@fgfirenation This man can't catch a damn break it seems. From being teased about being a literal star and enduring a good-intentioned cross-survey/ asked lots of questions, to being bullied for being short by a bearman again like last time. This time this fool has not one, not two but three to tease for being short-stacks. Pirin, primarily as the shortest of the trio, Raptor and Ludovic who brought this workaholic (work-addict) to the tavern. Otherwise Vanya and Zelda could swap tea about their partners.

Bickering pt 5 huh?

Or Celestino joins the bullying and later tea about partners. Seriously, what's with being teased left and right today??

Temporarily swaps universes with....Molpe I don't know anything about Molpe so can't say anything..;-;) Maybe Molpe becomes the Moon (like admin) of Pirin's Esperia if we're running the meta premise. But none of the squad knows Spanish so barrier goes hard unfortunately...

Another dance

Prompt is 'Offer to dance with...Sena' on the wheel heh. @bunnybird-afk Pirin offers his patron to dance, or simply these two hanging out as it's been likely so long since last time. It could be Desi dance or Bulgarian or a funky mix of the two for laughs, being silly. And does Malak's herald have tea to spill to him if he hasn't already about a certain Graveborn..

..Assuming that certain Graveborn hasn't broken the news to Sena first, in the first place.

[ghostchanuwu]

2nd to last batch of AniRedux Hoenn redesigns!!!After Hoenn I'm gonna do some Kanto and Johto ones (more designs under the cut,first 4 are older drawings but will be updated,all designs are finalized so no major changes when redone)

Tbh Tate and Liza's ORAS designs are already pretty solid so all I did was add their sun/moon imagery to line up with their aces (also hairstyle changes with Tate being slightly more flared to closer represent the sun and Liza's being smoother to represent the moon)

I went full Volcarona with Flannery's design along with giving her a more tough girl look with the cut sleeves and having more red and orange colors in her design while also keeping her towel belt bc of the theme of her gym being a hot spring (her gym goes SO HARD in ORAS)

Roxanne's design leans in hard into the teacher aesthetic along with having a nice business vibe since Rustboro is Hoenn's financial hub

Wattson's design leaned more into his RSE side but also added a bit of yellow to his hair and some plusle minun themed goggles since this man definitely owns a bunch of novelty accessories and shirts (he is wearing a Togedemaru themed Alola shirt under his jacket)

Pre current day trio back when they were traveling together! (Steven at this point is 16 about to hit 17 while Winona and Wallace are 17)

Steven is freshly graduated from Rustboro High 2 years early with honors and is set to go to university but he had decided to take on the Hoenn League before he does since he was considered a prodigy in his advanced battling courses and was noted to have an affinity for steel types and psychic types

Winona had originally set off at 14 as a part of her Field Researcher course, she wasn't very interested in it at first but was hooked immediately when the teachers said that she would be studying in Fallarbor which not only has a healthy Swablu population nearby but also some Skarmory and Gligar sightings, she and Steven meet back up after 2 years of not seeing eachother and the first thing they do is go out to try to catch a Skarmory (it goes comedically wrong but ends with Winona getting a newly hatched Skarmory and Steven getting the world's snarkiest Skarmory despite it only being a few months old)

Wallace is an up and coming Coordinator who already has a bit of a following from the contest he had participated in in Slateport showing off his Milotic and Gyarados duo which shocked the audience since most trainers his age completely forego training Gyarados because of their temper but Wallace's is surprisingly elegant, he doesn't participate in the Gym Circuit until he hits his early 20s but does have the Rain Badge (he did attend Rustboro's middle school years ago which is where he first met Steven and Winona but quickly transfered to Uva-Naranja academy in Paldea since they was offering a really nice foreign exchange student program)

Steven-Metang,Skarmory,Aron,Kirlia

Winona-Swablu,Skarmory,Swellow

Wallace-Milotic,Gyarados,Quaxly,Marshtomp

(Winona's Swablu is shiny since her father had wanted to have a special one bred to be her starter)

I may have done a little something special with Maxie's design, he still keeps the shoulder pads since every admin in Magma wears some form of armor but he is hiding a little something behind those glasses, he had been partially possessed by the Red Orb when he first came into contact with it years ago permanently scaring him along with changing his eyes (at first I went 3.0 + 1.0 Gendo-like but simply stuck with how Primal Groudon's would look), he just simply hides it along with the glasses having improved his eyesight along with it being where his keystone is affixed

Zinnia went full gremlin vagabond vibes, messy hair and a torn sleeve from where she had to patch up a nasty wound that her Salamence had suffered when they first left Meteor Falls no thanks to a very angry Walrein, she had been entrusted with the 2nd mega anklet that her village possessed officially crowning her as Lorekeeper along with the remains of Aster's cape (Aster had the 1st mega anklet but it was lost when they passed)

Tips for Maintaining Indoor Air Quality Maintaining indoor air quality is essential for a healthy living environment. Poor air quality can lead to a range of health issues, including allergies, respiratory problems, and fatigue. In some cases, it can even necessitate emergency mold removal, which can be a costly and disruptive process. To help ensure clean and breathable air in your home, consider implementing the following tips.

1. Control Humidity Levels Humidity plays a significant role in indoor air quality. High humidity can promote mold growth and dust mites, while low humidity can cause respiratory irritation. Ideally, indoor humidity should be kept between 30% and 50%. Use dehumidifiers in damp areas like basements or bathrooms to control moisture levels. Additionally, ensure proper ventilation in these areas by using exhaust fans or opening windows when possible.

2. Regular Cleaning Regular cleaning is vital for maintaining good air quality. Dust and allergens can accumulate on surfaces, carpets, and upholstery. Vacuum frequently with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a HEPA filter to trap small particles. Dust surfaces with microfiber cloths and wash bedding in hot water weekly to eliminate dust mites and allergens. Pay special attention to areas that may harbor mold, such as bathrooms and kitchens.

3. Improve Ventilation Proper ventilation is crucial for indoor air quality. Open windows to allow fresh air to circulate and reduce the concentration of indoor pollutants. Consider installing an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or heat recovery ventilator (HRV) to exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while maintaining energy efficiency. Make sure that any ventilation systems are regularly maintained and free of obstructions.

4. Choose Low-VOC Products Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals found in many household products, including paints, cleaners, and air fresheners. These compounds can evaporate into the air, negatively impacting air quality. When possible, opt for low-VOC or VOC-free products to minimize indoor pollution. Always use products in well-ventilated areas and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for safe use.

5. Maintain HVAC Systems Your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system plays a crucial role in regulating indoor air quality. Regularly change air filters to ensure efficient airflow and trap dust and allergens. Schedule professional HVAC maintenance at least once a year to clean ducts and ensure the system is functioning properly. This will help maintain good air quality and prevent the buildup of pollutants.

6. Monitor Indoor Air Quality Invest in an indoor air quality monitor to keep track of pollutants, humidity levels, and overall air quality. These devices can alert you to potential issues, allowing you to take corrective action before problems arise.

By implementing these tips for maintaining indoor air quality, homeowners can create a healthier living environment. Proactively managing humidity levels, regularly cleaning, improving ventilation, choosing low-VOC products, maintaining HVAC systems, and monitoring air quality are all essential steps in preventing issues like mold growth and the need for emergency mold removal. A commitment to clean air will benefit both your health and your home’s overall condition.

How Much Time Is Needed to Build a Cryptocurrency Exchange Platform?

The cryptocurrency market is booming, and launching your own cryptocurrency exchange platform can be a highly profitable business venture. However, one of the most common questions business owners have is: "How long will it take to create a cryptocurrency exchange platform?" The answer to this question depends on several factors, including the complexity of the platform, the features required, and the development process.

In this blog, we will explore the key factors that impact the timeline for building a cryptocurrency exchange and provide an overview of what to expect during the cryptocurrency exchange software development process.

Factors That Impact Development Time

1. Platform Complexity

The complexity of the cryptocurrency exchange platform is one of the biggest factors in determining how long development will take. A basic platform with essential features (such as trading, order matching, and wallets) will take less time to develop than a more complex exchange with advanced features like margin trading, staking, or multi-asset support.

Basic Exchange: Typically takes 3 to 6 months to develop.

Advanced Exchange: May take 6 to 12 months or longer, depending on additional features.

2. Custom vs. White-Label Solutions

If you choose to build a custom cryptocurrency exchange from scratch, it will naturally take more time than using a white-label cryptocurrency exchange software development solution. Custom development requires more design, coding, and testing phases.

Custom Exchange Development: Usually takes 6 to 12 months.

White-Label Exchange Development: Can be launched in as little as 1 to 3 months.

3. Number of Features

The more features you want your exchange to offer, the longer it will take to develop. Key features that can extend the development timeline include:

Security Features: Two-factor authentication (2FA), KYC/AML compliance, and encrypted transactions.

Trading Features: Spot trading, margin trading, futures trading, and staking.

Admin Panel and User Dashboard: For managing users, trading, and settings.

Liquidity Management: Ensuring that the platform has liquidity for smooth trading operations.

Integrating these features requires careful planning and development, so the timeline may vary based on the specific needs of your platform.

4. Development Team Expertise

The expertise of the development team working on your cryptocurrency exchange software development can significantly influence the project timeline. A skilled and experienced team will be able to work efficiently, troubleshoot issues quickly, and meet deadlines.

Partnering with a professional development team or a cryptocurrency exchange software development company is crucial to ensuring that your platform is built to industry standards and is scalable, secure, and functional.

5. Regulatory Compliance

Compliance with regulations is another important factor that can affect the development timeline. Different regions have different regulations, such as KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) policies. If your exchange is being developed for a specific market, it’s essential to ensure compliance with the local laws, which may require additional time for legal consultations and adjustments.

6. Testing and Debugging

Before launching your cryptocurrency exchange platform, thorough testing and debugging are essential. This phase ensures that the platform is secure, user-friendly, and functioning properly. It can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to complete the testing process, depending on the complexity of the platform.

7. Security Implementations

Security is critical for any cryptocurrency exchange. Implementing advanced security measures like DDoS protection, SSL encryption, cold storage for crypto assets, and regular audits can extend the development timeline but are necessary for ensuring the safety of your users’ funds and data.

Development Phases and Timeframe

Let’s break down the typical development phases and how much time you can expect for each:

Planning and Requirement Gathering (2-4 Weeks): This phase involves understanding the client’s requirements, defining the project scope, and setting goals. If regulatory compliance is involved, legal consultations may be needed during this time.

Design Phase (4-6 Weeks): This includes designing the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) of the exchange. A well-thought-out design ensures a smooth user journey and an intuitive platform.

Development Phase (3-6 Months): The core of the project, this phase involves coding the platform, developing trading engines, wallet integration, and security features.

Testing and Debugging (4-8 Weeks): Thorough testing of the platform’s features, security, and functionality is carried out. Any issues found during testing are resolved to ensure the exchange operates smoothly.

Deployment and Launch (2-4 Weeks): After successful testing, the platform is deployed to a live environment, followed by the official launch. Ongoing support may be needed to address any post-launch issues or upgrades.

Conclusion

The timeline for creating a cryptocurrency exchange platform depends on various factors, such as platform complexity, features, regulatory compliance, and the expertise of the development team. While a custom platform may take 6 to 12 months or more to develop, opting for a white-label cryptocurrency exchange software development solution can reduce the timeline to just a few months.

Partnering with an experienced development team is key to ensuring your platform is secure, scalable, and ready to compete in the growing crypto market. By understanding the various factors that influence development time, business owners can make informed decisions and set realistic expectations for their exchange platform launch.

US-China

1. The US has its own interest in the contested region, clothed in its pronouncement to protect the freedom of navigation within the region. They take advantage of their relations with the Philippines (as their former colony) to push their agenda and maintain their dominance in the international sphere. States primarily prioritize their own survival. Vietnam-US relations are still influenced by their conflict during the Vietnam War (which was also part of the Cold War). Meanwhile, the Philippines is at the crossroads of two global superpowers (China and the US). Based on the balance of power theory, the US might be preventing the rise of another state that can dominate its less powerful neighbors. EDCA is an exercise of soft power to signify their presence within the region. The invasion of Taiwan is another excuse for the US to meddle in Asian affairs. It intends to circle and surround the maritime boundaries of China to contain its expansionism. China counteracts by targeting the resupply mission and questioning the involvement of the US in the regional dispute.

2. Following the American presence in the WPS, the maritime dispute could be a hotbed of conflict. If international organizations don’t intervene in the incidents, unintended consequences might arise. However, the UN is instrumental in preventing large-scale wars (but was ineffective in preventing regional disputes similar to the Russian-Ukraine War). Thucydides trap might be applied to the continued rise of China, which threatens US dominance. The realist school of international relations advances the framework that war is inevitable due to the competition of states to dominate world politics. Idealism, on the other hand, emphasizes rule-based order and the role of international organizations and institutions in the peaceful resolution of disputes.

PH-China

3. Indeed, China’s aggression is illegal due to their ratification of UNCLOS; however, international law does not provide a law enforcement/police force to compel China to cease their illegal activities. This is why, despite the favorable ruling of the International Tribunal in 2016, China can dismiss such ruling and impose its own claim based on historical rights. Hence, the salami-slicing strategy is being applied to exercise their claim without backlash from the international community. They frame the dispute as a provocation from the Philippine side to divert attention away from their illegal activities.

4. Trump's decrease in military exposure can be attributed to his xenophobic views, which are apparent in travel bans early in his term against Muslims, withdrawal of military force in Afghanistan, and erecting walls on the Mexican border. Loans obtained by the Duterte administration from China may also be related to debt-trap diplomacy to let China gain leverage for their WPS claims. Duterte probably considered options that would help his BBB project as well as the pandemic recovery. Since bipolarity of power exists between China and US. Diplomacy (and politics in general) presupposes the temporariness of allies and rivals and the permanence of interest. As I indicated in No. 1 earlier, states primarily prioritize their own survival.

PH-US

5. International relations can also be motivated by quid pro quos, the shift of the Marcos admin to US can signify the Philippines trade-offs with a neocolonial master, forming alliances in exchange for something, I guess some favor related to the invocation of MDT (particularly in the construction of EDCA sites). I also view the relations with US as somehow similar to what happened to the Cuban Missile Crisis, by placing military infrastructure in strategic locations (also indicated in response no. 1 with regard to containment within the maritime boundaries).

6. I agree that enforcement of rights in WPS is a right thing to do in promoting a rule-based order, It may also divert collective attention away from some issues, which may include the questions regarding their family's ill gotten wealth, the positioning of their relatives in key political positions (which may also signify entrenching their power in the long run similar to what they did in their hometown), or inflation management. A declaration of martial law might be unlikely except on certain grounds (and that includes invasion). I cannot tell what the possible motives are since military and tactical approaches are highly confidential in nature.

7. MDT provides that an armed attack on signatory parties would trigger the defense of another. There is no assurance that the US will honor its commitment (but the Philippines may haul US to ICJ for failure to comply in good faith, which will only cause additional burden to a possible armed attack). War is one possibility if conflict keeps on escalating. Multilateral alliances with other states are crucial in case US refuses to be involved. One interpretation of ongoing conflict is some form of Hobbesian trap where fear of imminent attack by both parties will preempt a possible strike. Other possibilities include a possible diplomatic understanding or bargaining between the contending parties. International relations theory offers different approaches to how the situation can be understood (similar to political ideologies). Diplomatic officers are vital in pursuing different means to address China's aggressiveness. I am just hoping that the officers in charge will make the right calls to settle the situation.

Exploring the Features of a PancakeSwap Clone: A DeFi Development Company's Perspective

In the dynamic realm of decentralized finance (DeFi), PancakeSwap has emerged as a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Its user-friendly interface, robust liquidity provision, and yield farming opportunities have garnered significant attention from crypto enthusiasts and investors alike. As the popularity of PancakeSwap continues to soar, entrepreneurs and developers are increasingly drawn to the idea of creating their decentralized exchanges. Enter the PancakeSwap clone script – a comprehensive solution offered by DeFi development companies to replicate the success of PancakeSwap.

So, what exactly does a PancakeSwap clone script entail, and what features does it offer? Let's delve into the intricacies:

1. Familiar User Interface: 

A PancakeSwap clone script aims to replicate the intuitive and user-friendly interface of the original platform. Users should feel comfortable navigating through the exchange, accessing liquidity pools, and engaging in yield-farming activities.

2. Decentralized Exchange Functionality: 

At its core, a PancakeSwap clone functions as a decentralized exchange, facilitating the seamless exchange of various tokens on the Binance Smart Chain. It supports features like swapping, adding liquidity, and earning rewards through liquidity provision.

3. Automated Market Making (AMM): 

Similar to PancakeSwap, the clone script utilizes an AMM mechanism to enable liquidity provision and token swapping without the need for order books. This ensures continuous liquidity and competitive pricing for traders.

4. Yield Farming and Staking: 

One of the key attractions of PancakeSwap and its clones is the opportunity for users to earn rewards through yield farming and staking. The clone script incorporates these features, allowing users to stake their tokens in liquidity pools and earn yield in the form of trading fees and governance tokens.

5. Liquidity Pools Management:

Admins of the PancakeSwap clone can manage liquidity pools, add new token pairs, adjust fee structures, and implement other customization options to cater to the specific needs of their platform.

6. Security Measures: 

Security is paramount in the world of DeFi, and a PancakeSwap clone script prioritizes the implementation of robust security measures to protect users' funds and data. This may include smart contract audits, integration of security protocols, and adherence to best practices in code development.

7. Community Governance: 

Inspired by the decentralized ethos of DeFi, PancakeSwap clones often incorporate community governance mechanisms, allowing token holders to participate in decision-making processes such as protocol upgrades and fee adjustments.

8. Cross-Chain Compatibility: 

While PancakeSwap operates on the Binance Smart Chain, some PancakeSwap clones offer cross-chain compatibility, enabling users to easily access liquidity from multiple blockchains and bridge assets.

In conclusion, a Pancakeswap clone script is a comprehensive solution for entrepreneurs and developers looking to enter the thriving DeFi landscape. With its array of features mirroring those of the original PancakeSwap platform, coupled with the expertise of a reputable DeFi development company, aspiring innovators can embark on their journey to launch a successful decentralized exchange and contribute to the growing ecosystem of decentralized finance.

If you're considering venturing into the world of decentralized exchanges or seeking to explore the possibilities offered by a PancakeSwap clone script, partnering with a reliable DeFi development company can be the first step towards realizing your vision and making a mark in the ever-evolving realm of decentralized finance.

My quote experiments

Following my conversations with Dot and Emily, I decided to choose one quote from my recordings and give them to different people for them to create the conversation that came before it. I thought this would be quite interesting because it would work similar to overhearing part of a conversation and trying to guess what they were talking about. This would give me an insight into how different people interpret a phrase.

I decided to use the phrase "It's like a little tickle, but a tug as well." (Treais and Gilchrist, ,2023b), which was a description my flatmate Heather used to describe when her insulin pump is ripped out. I chose this phrase because I think it is quite open and can be used to describe a lot of things. However, it is also a bit obscure meaning the person will need to think about their answer.

I found it quite interesting on peoples first reaction when I gave them this phrase. Some started laughing, others instantly started writing but some gave me a freaked out look and asked me whether this quote was suitable for a university setting. I found this quite funny becayse nearly all of them twisted the innocent phrase into something sexual when they first read it. However, instead of using their first impressions to direct the narrative, the majority of people took time to consider what they should write. I found this reaction quite intriguing because on the people I asked explicitly told me that they chose a narrative they deemed more 'appropriate' than the one they first thought of. Therefore, when reading them I began questioning whether their answers may have been vastly different if they did not know this activity was for my university project.

On the other hand, this response to the phrase shows me that writing the first narrative this phrase shows, creates a chaotic response. I like how this answer twists the phrase so much that it changes completely from the original meaning.

In conclusion, I have found that recording a conversation can lead to many different narratives depending on the context it is given. By changing something as small as where the people are and what their tone of voice is, I can create multiple narratives by only using one exchange.

When talking with Emily earlier, she told me about Overheard London. Overheard London is an Instagram account that has quotes the admins have overheard somewhere in London. When looking at this account I was inspired to try my own experiment with creating the narrative by choosing 4 quotes and creating the story behind them.

I found this exercise quite fun to do myself because I needed to think what setting and context I wanted to place the phrase in. This would set the overall tone and layout of my narrative.

However, with my narratives, I decided to write down the first narrative that came to mind. This made my responses more instinctive because I did not overthink them. I like how this made my responses feel less scripted. The responses from the others feel more like a script instead of a conversation because each sentence looks planned out. Meanwhile my narratives feel more loose and less detailed.

Following these experiments, I am interested in exploring why amusement was the most popular response to the phrases. This will give me a better understanding on how I can express my narrative typographically, as I will be able to see how I can evoke different emotions.

Overheard London. (2023). “Until you have cried on public transport, you’re not a true Londoner”. Instagram. [online]. 31 May. Available from: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cs6Pt2mPDi4/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==. [Accessed 18 October 2023].

Overheard London. (2022). “I’m 50% wondering if it’s too late to drink coffee, and 50% wondering if it’s too early to drink wine”. Instagram. [online]. 14 July. Available from: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf_rP90M-nq/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==. [Accessed 18 October 2023].

The basics of Yuletide:

Small-fandom fic gift exchange.

You agree to write a 1000+ word fic in a fandom someone has requested, with the character(s) they requested (and you agreed to write).

You receive a 1000+ word fic in a fandom you requested, with the character(s) you requested (and someone agreed to write).

Rules & discussion are at the admin community at Dreamwidth.

ELIGIBLE FANDOMS: Tiny. Under 1000 complete fics of under 1000 words, in English, at AO3. There are edge cases and the mods are open to talking about them. Those edge cases do not include "there are 1500 works but 2/3 of them are crossovers." Nor do they include "there are 1015 works but 35 of them are by this one person whose writing sucks." If it's your first Yuletide, avoid the edge cases.

CHARACTERS: There are character eligibility issues as well - sometimes there's a small fandom with not-small characters, and those are not allowed. (Like, if there's a new teen superhero fandom and Batman makes an appearance...you can't request Batman in the new fandom.) Again, there are edge cases.

FIC REQUIREMENTS: People are now allowed to have DNWs, and fics must not hit the DNWs. (Unreasonable DNWs can be appealed to the mods, but they have a wide range of tolerance. If it doesn't say, "DNW: non-Explicit fic" or "DNW: anything but coffee shop AU," assume it's allowed.) However: Fics are not required to be romantic or erotic. A person can request that but can't demand it.

For a very long time, the unofficial subtitle of Yuletide was "Optional Details Are Optional" - you request a fandom & 0-4 characters, and you get a fic in that fandom & with those characters, and that's all that's promised. DNWs change that a bit, but there's still a wide range of options.

"DEAR AUTHOR" LETTERS are common - people will put their basic notes in the request form (and those are the only details that matter for officially filling the request), but may put a longer set of details on their blog - info like "I love the dynamic between A and B at university" or "I always wondered what happened to A after canon" or "I don't see B and C as romantic at all" or "I love crossovers into scifi fandoms" or "I'm not interested in werewolf society explorations" and so on. Often they will also include a set of story prompts.

None of that is required - it's to help you figure out what to write for a stranger in a fandom you don't usually write in. (Nobody usually writes in these fandoms or they wouldn't be eligible.)

TREATS: One of the reason for Dear Author letters is that other people, not your assigned writer, might be inspired to write you a "treat" - an extra fic. This can be a full-length (1000+ words) fic and go in the main collection, or a shorter fic - any length - and go in the "Yuletide Madness" collection that's open for like 3 days after the main collection is revealed. People often write short sequels and other followups inspired by Yuletide stories.

So excited for Yuletide to start later this month. I only found out about it last year so hypeeee

Twisted Wonderland Demon!Yuu AU

Once more join me on the Twisted Wonderland train that my brain seems to not want to get off of. 

Bald Mountain is a thing that exists in Disney lore.  Fantasia is amazing and Chernabog has appeared in other Disney media (see House of Mouse). So, let’s make Chernabog and Bald Mountain exist in Twisted Wonderland.  And even more, make it so that our player character (for this AU to be names Yuna and female) be sort of from Bald Mountain.  Below is mostly background information of Bald Mountain as a way to keep my ideas somewhere where I can see them.

Bald Mountain Home of demons, ruled by Chernabog, who is a lazy ass woh sleeps a lot and leaves the running of the hellscape to the 8 Pillars.  Each Pillar is a general of Bald Mountain and controls a specific aspect of life in the mountain.  The 7 Pillars represent the 7 deadly sins.  The 8th is staffed near completely by part-demons, sacrifices, and atavists.  There is a near constant war going on in the depth of Bald Mountain between the demons, condemned souls, and outer realm beings.  Bald Mountain is one of the first lines of defense for the worlds of Disney for keeping beings from beyond/Great Old Ones from invading.

Pillar 1: Sin of Pride General Ez’godath Military Role: Air force

Pillar 2: Sloth Admiral Kagloth Military Role: Navy

Pillar 3: Wrath General Trorkollek (Usually abbreviated to General Trork because they can’t stand the time wasted saying their full name) Military Role: Army

Pillar 4: Lust General Jol’gan Military role: Spies, Scouts, Sabotage, Assassins

Pillar 5: Greed General Ogath Military Role: Logistics/Admin/Strategists

Pillar 6: Envy General Tezrin Military role: Engineers and Demolition

Pillar 7: Gluttony General Vuranoth Military Role: Support (food, medical, transport, etc)

Pillar 8: Unnamed or called the Civvy Branch as a slang term General Yuna Military Role: Internal affairs, Security, External Relations (aka the Diplomat Corps), Police, Emergency Services, Non-Military healers, Research and Development, anything the other Generals dump on them *They end up working closely with the 5th, 6th, and 7th Pillars on a lot of things.*

Bald Mountain has 2 sections. The exterior and the interior. It is dangerous for a non-demon to enter the interior as the space is constantly changing and time isn’t constant. All sacrifices live on the exterior and most civilian businesses are owned by them. 

Sacrifices are people who were offered up for a demon deal by someone else. Sadly, most of them were offered up as children. They do get the option to become a part demon or full demon and gain a demonic parent. Cater is one of these, becoming a succubus after being sacrificed by his mother at age 8 in exchange for power. A clause in those types of agreements state that the sacrifice can at any time call in the penalty clause. Cater is waiting for the best chance to call in his mother’s. 

Yes, I am getting Cater away from his bitch of a mother and his spoiled brat sisters.  The boy deserves so much better than them.  He’s a succubus now, having taken the full demon choice.  He tends to just go by Cater or, if he needs a last name he uses Cater Berg. Berg means Mountain.

Ok, back to Bald Mountain geography.  So, Bald Mountain exists in multiple dimensions at once all linked through the interior of the mountain, which is why it can be dangerous for a non-demon to enter the mountain.  So because of this, it’s not that odd for demons to meet people from other dimensions or go to other dimensions to have kids.  This brings into play the ativists, or people who have a demonic ancestor way, way back in their bloodline and the demonic genes going active out of nowhere.  This is what happened to Yuna.

Yuna lived in an expy of our world with no magic.  It may have had magic in the past, but that’s considered myth.  Her ancestor happens to be Chernabog, making her one of the demon king's many, many descendants.  Her demonic genes go active around the age of 18 or so and she gets kidnapped to Bald Mountain where everything is explained to her.  Having no way home until she controls her new powers, she trains, joins the Bald Mountain military (as I imagine it’s a mandatory thing), gets assigned to the 8th Pillar and eventually goes up the ranks to become general…after about 150 years or so. 

That was 100 years ago.  Now she’s been forced on vacation by her second, Cater.  She goes back home.  No time has passed and she still looks like she’s 18.  Demon genes mean aging is really slow.  Then, while going on her morning run, she encounters a black carriage and is dragged to Twisted Wonderland.  And this is where our story starts…
