Who wins starstruck or a aroace guy

both of them, because she's also aroace just like me!

actually while i'm at it, here's the little animation i was working on for pride month but never got around to posting!

in my self indulgent aroace worldbuilding i like to imagine that labels for orientations and genders are just kind of... not that much of a thing on popstar, because it doesn't matter at all to anyone. nobody has ever cared about stuff like who or how you love, and 90% of them are picking their own pronouns anyway.

that said, it's still nice to have a little self representation here on our primitive earth internet, where this kind of thing very much does need to exist and we deserve to be proud of it!

Dinosaur figure of the day: Field Museum Mold-A-Rama Quetzalcoatlus (2021)

(Not technically a dinosaur, I know, but we love all prehistoric creatures here)

A bit of background info on Mold-A-Rama below the cut!

Mold-A-Rama machines are coin-operated injection-molding machines that have been around since 1964. (The ones at the Field Museum at least have been retrofitted with card readers, so you don't actually need coins to get a figure from them!)

The Field Museum in Chicago occasionally designs new molds for them to go with their exhibits! This Quetzalcoatlus is a new design made in 2021 to commemorate the updated Evolving Planet exhibit with the giant life-sized Quetzalcoatlus statue:

(They also have other machines with original vintage molds, which I may also feature!)

Planets of Fire is really funny actually. Turlough is having the worst day of his life and trying to be brave about it. Peri is having the worst day of her life and keeps on attacking the Master about it

He's the least sequestered man on the planet. He's in crisis. He's a mean girl. He is God's weakest soldier. He's a 60 yr old man but he's giving failgirl eldest daughter energy. He manages. He's canonically bisexual. He's celibate. He was born in a wet cardboard box. He serves cunt. He has a certain sadness in his eyes you only see in Eastern European gay porn. He struggles to open a ziplock bag, and he DOES NOT WANT YOUR VOTE!

I didn't say a name, but he popped in your head, didn't he?

[chuuciae]

i depend soo heavily on the opinions of people i have never met in my life and will never meet again. someone on a random instagram comment section could say "if you weren't born great then you never will be" and i'll go oahhh okay. i'll die then. someone could go "hey i'm literally god and i think you're bad" i'd be like ohh yeah haha ^_^ and cry about it for weeks

[keeps-ache]

unfortunately i enjoy these sad little tunes on the piano and my mother will simply have to Deal

I want Damian to get a really ugly foster cat. Greasy fur, meows like a smoker, eyes constantly goopy, the works.

Bruce was hesitant to allow him to foster because he knows they'll all end up foster fails and Wayne Manor is already turning into a glorified petting zoo. Damian promises that wouldn't happen. So, it ended in a bet, if Damian can successfully foster this cat, then he'll be allowed to foster more cats.

Bruce figured if Damian adopts this ugly cat, then no cat is safe.

It takes a long time for the cat to even warm up to them. She was left at the shelter in a cardboard box so no one really knows what happened to her. Damian spend almost every second he can generally in the same room as her. He just sits there, sometimes just mediating, but sometimes he has a book or a sketchbook. The cat slowly gets more comfortable around Damian. One day, she's brave enough to rub her head against Damian's hand. And it's like she turns into a whole new cat. She's suddenly the most cuddly snuggly cat on the planet. She purrs really really loud too.

And Bruce starts to think that they're going to need a couple more litter boxes.

Damian names her something really elegant, to make up for her unfortunate exterior. Something like Petunia or Tanya (idk if that's an elegant name, but it's really elegant to me). She gets along really well with Alfred the cat too. They can usually be found together cuddling or playing. She didn't like Titus at all at first, but he's as diligent as his owner, so she came around. Although she always has to be the one to initiate the interaction usually, or she'll hiss and scratch.

Predictably, it ends in a foster fail, and Damian thinks that it's probably a good thing he's not allowed to foster.

He still argues with his father though.

Acab applies to security guards too.

Okay, so there's two basic kinds of security: public and private

Public security is for government employees like police

Private security is stuff like security guards, bodyguards, and bouncers

As a security guard, you need to pass different licensing exams for different privileges. Someone who might handcuff people needs a license to carry handcuffs- someone who might need to carry a weapon needs a license for that weapon.

I passed my BST exam something like five years ago and stopped there, so I am allowed to carry: A radio

And as private security, again, there are two basic kinds: in-house and contract

Contract security means a company or a person or a location like a park can pay my boss' boss money to send powerless scarecrows in uniforms to walk around and provide what is called "visible presence"

which is, essentially, a life-size cardboard cutout of a guy wearing the classic Spirit Halloween costume, "Black Slacks Law Professional" in size L

So if the entire chain of authority, from a toddler at the mall food court all the way up to whoever happens to have access to the majority of the planet's nukes at this time, you should know that someone like me currently ranks somewhere very slightly above Janitor, but still definitely below Cinnabon Assistant Manager

Which means that if I chose to go rogue and use my powers for evil TOMORROW, I would maybe manage to punch a Cinnabon employee and shoplift half a dozen chocolate bars from the gift shop before I am fired and in jail being sued off my ass with my licenses revoked for life, unable to leave the country or apply for a job at Walmart with my new shiny criminal record

Security guards and mall cops ain't police. We're dressed like police so you don't try and do something illegal in the area, but the vast majority of us can't actually do anything.

Calm down

When people talk about Affini and what Sci Fi could survive against them, they neglect that there is exactly one sci fi species that the Affini would have no power over : Kerbals

They have 2 stats, Courage and Stupidity. Their entire society is centred around building rockets and going into space. Kerbals are happiest when launching themselves at mach 12 into a planets surface. Their greatest joy and honour in life for a Kerbal is being selected to go live on a cramped probe 50 metres away from falling into the sun.

There is nothing the Affini can provide that would make them happier than flying around their solar system in tin-can rockets and cardboard capsules

DAY 02

 I figured if I’m stuck here for a while, I’m gonna need somewhere to sleep. Luckily there’s tons of cardboard on this planet so I was able to make myself a base 🪐📦
