Why Qatar, Iran, China and Sudi Arabia have poured over 12 billion dollars into US Ivy League Universities and various collages dorbtge past decade+?

Worse, why weren't those "donations" disclosed properly to the states?

And EVEN WORSE, where the FUCK is the government?...

I am regularly annoyed at AI generated art, but I think nothing compares to doing researches of traditional clothes and only finding sexualised AI stuff that is most definitely not traditional apparel.

Know the enemy. He wants to exacerbate the wealth divide, and it will cause further instability, greater police militarization, and higher sales of security systems.

And he thinks, apparently, that his millions are well spent.

"...since the start of 2022, Timothy Mellon has poured in more than $125 million to Make America Great Again, the Trump-affiliated super PAC, and $25 million to American Values 2024, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s super PAC. --- Tim Mellon is the most consequential mega-donor of this contentious election, and the least known. " -- Vanity Fair, 10/24

Vlogger Set Functional for The Sims 2

This is an object I made cloning from the Podium in the Career Rewards. Sims have 2 options:

"Make a Vlog": Sim (child to elder) will go in front of the camera and start a "live" speech with their followers, which can increase the charisma skill, fun and social. If a Sim has more than 7.5 charisma skill points, at the end of the live they will gain also 100 simoleon as a donation from their subriscibers. - Non Autonomous

"Dance to the Camera": Sim (teen to elder) will start to dance in front of the camera with background music (I like to think it's like filming a tik tok video or similar :D), which increase fun and social and decrease energy. - Autonomous

They can also be listen by nearby sims in the lot, like the original podium.

Children can also use this object to "Play" and burp into the camera :D - Autonomous

At night, the lamp and the smartphone screen will be brighter as shown here:

These are the recolors:

Objects are 4to2 conversions from Ddaengsims Influencer Set and Akalukery Streamer Gear. Vlogger Set is medium poly. I also added a decorative green screen you can use, converted from Ravasheen, low poly. Vlogger Set can be found in Electronics-Enterteinment, while Green Screen is in Electronics-Miscellaneous.

Let me know if there are any problems with this object ;) Enjoy!

Look-

Anyone who tries telling you that both parties are the same and there is no point in voting? Has a fucking agenda, and it's a nasty one.

Do the Dems disappoint me? Yes, constantly. Do I have gripes with Biden? 100%.

Do I also recognize that he has GOTTEN SHIT DONE and that those things are like. NOT talked about by people my age because it feels better to be angry and constantly demanding better while being unwilling to put up with Average Joe who is ACTUALLY doing things that progressives have been asking for for AGES (putting caps on medication prices, working to cancel student and medical debt, investing in infrastructure and going after inflation, started working on protecting reproductive rights after Trump put in place the shitty judges who wrecked Roe, is trying to go after how weed is scheduled and pardoned all federal offenses, et-fucking-cetera).

Not only do I actually LIKE some of the shit Biden is doing? If Trump gets back in office? People will die. He and his have been OPEN about the fact that they want to go (somehow) even MORE fascist.

Fucking vote. Anyone telling you not to has your worst interests at heart. Be as pissed off as you want, but fucking VOTE. Because we have a chance of continuing to push a president like Biden towards the change we want to see. We have ZERO chance of that with Trump, or someone like him.

Listen.

✨The Spirk eyeshadow palette✨

A double palette set of 4 colours each where Kirk's is one palette and Spock's is the other. You can use them separate or you can put them together and you have the 8 colour ✨Spirk✨ palette.

You can also get an even bigger palette by combining the ✨Spirk✨ one with McCoy's palette and make a ✨ Mcspirk✨ one. You could really make all the combinations for your triumvirate ships!

So for Spock's palette we would have his signature indigo, a nice purple with blue shimmer for formal wear, a dark bronze with a touch of shimmer to do some fierce cat eyes and a deep black with black glitter for his dramatic goth ass.

For Kirk's palette we would have a warm tan for the daily, a beautiful soft orange with gold shimmer to wear at important events, wrap-around green with coppery shimmer for dating Spock and intense yellow with gold glitter for the diva inside.

And for McCoy's palette we would have his modest blue, baby blue with silver shimmer for being fancy, a cold grey to frame the judgy eyes and champagne with baby blue glitter when feeling bold.

So...

Paramount hire me when.

I could revolutionise their merchandising department if they let me.
