Supreme Court's Environmental Decisions Indicate Possible Shift in Judicial Attitudes

Supreme Court’s Recent Environmental Decisions: A Possible Shift? The conservative-majority Supreme Court has recently shown a more favorable stance towards environmental regulations, raising questions among analysts about a potential change in the court’s trajectory. Just this month, three noteworthy victories for regulators have emerged, suggesting a possible pivot in judicial attitudes. One…

So does anybody else ever think about how Loop felt the need to demonstrate that the party's deaths wouldn't have any effect on the loops. I know I do but that's besides the point. Anyway I don't think Loop actually needs to bathe, they just like to feel included.

this animatic is way too underrated - everyone needs to watch it asap!!

Good for you | Hazbin Hotel animatic by Kalopaaa

It's an Alastor-centric animatic in which he's confronted by the people he used to be close to – Mimzy, Rosie and Vox – all of which bitterly congratulate him for his new life and his new "friends". Alastor looks like he wants to explain himself and deny some of the accusations but he can't take back his hurtful words/actions (7 years absence) and he "can't erase what [he] wrote in ink" :3

day 14: enforcers

marcus had left a lot of trash to dispose of. caitlyn had started with his little cronies, moved on to his policies and was now working on the office.

the desk, in particular, was proving itself a pain. as soon as caitlyn thought she had finally cleaned it out, she had discovered several hidden drawers, and upon emptying those, found that several of those drawers had false bottoms. it seemed he had kept far more secrets than anyone knew.

the files she had found are organized in her own folders, waiting for her to look further into whatever crimes he had committed; any hidden evidence regarding jinx (and there had been a sizable amount) is pinned to her boards; the few personal items she had uncovered are ready to be sent along to his family. it did appear, though, that she was finally, finally reaching the end of it all, and what better time than at the very end of the day, long after anyone else had left the station.

that, of course, is when she discovers the desk's very last secret: the bottom of the last drawer was ever so slightly misaligned. it would have been easy to mistake for a manufacturing error, but after days of searching and taking apart wooden panels to find a level of corruption beyond what even she had suspected, caitlyn knows better. with a sigh, she pulls the drawer out from the slide and sets herself to prying up the last false bottom.

the only thing inside, however, is a little green pack of cigarettes.

caitlyn scoffs. out of everything to go through the effort of hiding, why this? it wasn't as if smoking was uncommon- her own parents- her father still did, as well. she picks up the pack, popping it open, and-

wait.

no, she knows that smell. these had never belonged to marcus.

she knows this smell, always mixed with gun oil and pine trees, winter cold, rough canvas on her skin. it had comforted her, once. it had asked her a question she never forgot.

"grayson," she murmurs.

most of the time, caitlyn leaves the office door closed and the windows shut. it made the room stuffy, but it kept her papers from flying about. now, though, she slides one window open and takes a seat on the chair in front of it.

caitlyn has made it a point to carry a lighter at all times despite only having smoked once or twice herself: she's found it makes for an easy way to get people talking. that makes it easy to light one now. it feels a little silly as much as it feels like the right way to remember her, leaning partway out the window into the starry night so the smell won't linger, knowing it will still cling to her uniform, her gloves.

it doesn't smell how she remembers it, though, once it's lit. it's long since gone stale. there's no comfort in that smell anymore. caitlyn finishes it quickly, puts it out on the windowsill, and goes back to work on the board. it may be late, but she's sure that with a bit more time, she can decode something useful. she has to.

she tries not to think too much about how things change, how things rot, but she knows how it happens. it happens from the inside out.

Gantober #5 - Surface Tension

Cheating again today, and introducing a WIP track from Thralls' Episode 2!! It has a fine sprinkling of Ganondorf in it, so I will arbitrarily decides that it counts!!

It's not finished and it will be much longer, but Things sure are happening in this scene and I'm curious to see if you can guess what they are :D

[distractionactivated]

Anyway my computer trouble is not the wildest thing to happen to me yesterday/today.

A strong contender was viewing a house without a bathroom, where the shower is a stall next to the back door where if you step out past the curtain you are fully naked in full view of the kitchen sink.

However, that does not take the crown.

No, that goes to the water company. Yesterday I was plagued and besieged by incessant noise until I left for my partner's before having my morning coffee (this will become important), and discovered on the way out that the water company had blocked off the main access lane to my building, so I had to go out through the garden; this meant I'd have to come in by going around the block (up a hill) bc the garden isn't accessible from the outside. Okay, fine. Sometimes works happen.

I drop by mid-afternoon and see that the road's fully dug up. Annoying, but I'm only dropping by; I grab a can of coke (again, important) and leave again. I'm mildly irritated that we weren't warned and now I have to go up the hill to get back in, but that's all.

I get back in the evening; the road is still dug up. Ugh. I go to the loo and wash my hands. This is, crucially, the first time I've used the water in my flat since my morning cuppa at 7am. The water explodes out of the tap, brown.

Uh oh. Now, I was lucky in that my hot water gets taken in the night before, heated up, and sits in its own tank during the day; I could draw off that water into the kettle and all the clean cups I had and be reasonably sure it came from Sunday, aka before the works happened. So I had some water. But it's late, the phone lines are shut, and I figure it's not technically an emergency because they already know about it.

Also, when I go to look for the contact details, I discover my laptop thinks it doesn't have a network adaptor. Which, I'm sorry to say, took priority.

So this morning I check it; it's not exploding anymore, and it's cloudy rather than brown, but I still don't trust it. I figure once my partner wakes up I'll go take the little water carrier we have for camping down and fill up there. But I want to know what's going on and how long I have to plan for. So I call the water company when lines open.

The verdict, after two holds?

"Uhhhhhhh, we're going to have to call the depot and get them to call you, our map's not showing any operations in your area..."

The secret rule of who gets a plus one to my wedding is how happy I am that you're in a relationship. Cousin who's dragged a different weeb into every family photo for a decade? Nah, this weeb isn't drinking on my dime. Friend who finally found a genuinely nice boy after dating a string of abusive Maoists? Hell, invite his mom, too.

[llycaons]

im also tired because I only got 4 hours of sleep today but who's fault was THAT (I....I have no idea. idk why I said that. it's just my body clock trying to keep a daytime schedule and being used to waking up at noon like I've been doing). but I can't sleep yet or else I'll wake up at 8 and this whole cycle will begin again. but at least I only have four more shifts to get through

the timeline

If you've ever wondered just what the hell I was doing with the fics I was putting out and this timeline I kept talking about, this is what I meant lol

It's actually got quite a few more characters listed out to the right but for the sake of relevancy and size I just kept the first few columns.

The notes are either specific key events or (italicized) published fics. I started making this into an actual timeline sheet just a bit before I dropped out of the fandom entirely so I haven't been able to flesh it out as much as I like, but now that I feel like getting back into stuff I'm sure it will populate pretty quickly lol

Color meanings (majorly as relevant to Techno and his pov):

Maroon - Living in the Nether

Soft Green - Traveling with Phil

Yellow - Living in Hypixel

Blue - SMPE and the Antarctic Empire

Neon Green - DSMP

Red - If an MCM was held that year; If the character participated in an MCM that year

Black - Character is not yet born or is dead

the most frustrating thing about neurodivergence is that i work really hard to combat it, right? i set up systems and i set myself up for success by being proactive and taking the human element (me) out of it as much as possible. i do meal planning for the month and grocery pickups and scheduled laundry days and autopay to make my life function. not even easier, just functioning! but it's other systems that fuck me up.

my health insurance updated their autopay website to be "better" (it does the same damn things) and now my payment is late because they messed up moving accounts over so now i have to drop what i'm doing to sign up for my third account with them and set up my autopay again and i just. i don't have the energy for this. it's such a small thing but it's always the small things that tip me over. and this not getting done has real consequences for me but them messing with my systems over and over and making me jump through hoops has no consequences for them.
