All 'Dia de Los Muertos' references in today's QSMP event
Iā€™ve seen it in Xitter but not yet in Tumblr, so Iā€™m gonna go and translate each Eggā€™s book with the references to the deities that are mention within.
(English is not my first language. Sorry for any typo or grammar mistake).
Tumblr media
For Tilin:
Tilin, my girl, Iā€™m sorry you couldnā€™t enjoy the life it was expected for you, but donā€™t be afraid you will be with mom at Chichihualcuauhco[1] where I will take care of you. I wonā€™t let anything hurt my helpless girl until you have the opportunity to be reborn again, you didnā€™t deserve to join the Gods in the underworld. - Tezcatlipoca[2]
Tumblr media
For Bobby:
My little Bobby, you have proven to own dignity and courage to fight for what is right, As a result of this, Iā€™ve invited you to my kingdom Ā Tonatiuhichan[3], where at my side, you and other warriors will sing about their deeds and will dance until midnight, so you can enjoy forever the sunset that you adore so much. - Tonaituh[4]
Tumblr media
For Juana:
Juana, itā€™s an honor for me and my wife Mictecachihuatl[5] to have you join us in the Mictlan[6]. Even though your dead was an accident, you may enjoy the journey that is our kingdom. You treated nature with respect in your life, so our dogs are excited to meet you at last. You will join us in the infinity of the universe forever. - Mictlantecuhtli [7]
Tumblr media
For Trump:
Oh Trump, Iā€™m sorry that my currents took you to this destiny, but to compensate I will invite you to Tlalocan[8], where you may join us in our celebration without end, and you may eat all the corn, amaranth, pumpkin, tomato and chile you want. In my kingdom, I promise you thereā€™s no suffering and you will never be alone. - Tlaloc [9]
Now for all the little references:
[1] Chichihualcuauhco:
Afterlife in which children who died young or in childbirth are sent and fed from the ā€œwet-nurse treeā€ (You canā€™t see it in the photo, but there was a tree in Tilinā€™s altar). Souls here wait for their next opportunity to be reborn.
[2] Tezcatlipoca:
Heā€™s one of the four creator gods of the universe. Iā€™m not an expert on Aztec mythology and I wasnā€™t really into Tilinā€™s lore, so Iā€™m kinda uncertain as to why he was the one to write to them or how are they connected.
[3] Tonatiuhichan:
One of the afterlife paradises, where the soul of warries who died in battle go. It was believed that warriors could go back to their homes (land of the living) as hummingbirds. (Fun fact: Woman who died at childbirth would be given the same rank as the warriors who died in battle and would be sent to a similar place called Cihuatlampa!) Ā 
[4] Tonatiuh:
God of the sun (who runs Tonatiuhichan), who most believed was the creator of the Flor of CempasĆŗchil.
[5] Mictecachihuatl:
Lady of the Dead, Mictlantecuhtliā€™s consort. She guards the bones of the dead. (Fun Fact: In Oaxaca, is known as Matlacihua, and is said to punish womanizing and drunken men who walk late at night. Kinda funny considering Mariana and Slimeā€™s interactions lmao.)
[6] Mictlan:
The underworld. Most people who die travel to Mictlan. To travel to the kingdom, you have to go through nine levels, which kinda needs dogs to carry the dead across the river. Same reason as to why Juana is sent dogs. (Fun fact: Depending in the color of the dog, they would act different. Yellow ones would just carry the soul, white ones would refuse cause they just washed themselves, and black dogs would refuse cause they just swum the river.)
[7] Mictlantecuhtli:
Lord of the Dead, king of Mictlan. Thereā€™s nothing much to say about him; he just simply tried to maintain order in the kingdom and was kinda of an asshole to other gods. Thereā€™s a whole myth about other Gods wanting to repopulate Earth, and him going ā€˜Nuh uhā€™ until QuetzalcĆ³atl gets tired of him and steals the human bones from Mictlan lol.
[8] Tlalocan:
The afterlife of the Nectar. Better known as the water paradise, where those who died through drowning (or anything associated with rain for that matter) go. I read somewhere that thereā€™s a theory of Trump dying because he drown in his own tears, so thatā€™s why he was invited by Tlaloc.
[9] Tlaloc:
The God of rain, associated as the giver of life. The flower Tagetes Lucida are kind of like the CempasĆŗchil, and are his symbol.

There's a Reddit screenshot going around (including here on Tumblr, Wil Wheaton reblogged a post about it) where a Trump supporter got whiny that at the Vegas convention this year, a couple of the Voyager actors were asked about their political beliefs by a fan, and they answered by praising Kamala Harris and condemning Trump and Trump supporters. This person on Reddit (not the same person who asked the politics question at the con) was upset because they felt they and their friends "learned that 7 of 9 hates them" and they were roundly made fun of for expecting that a Star Trek convention wouldn't contain anything that contradicts their MAGA beliefs given that, you know, it's such a progressive show where the future is LITERALLY luxury space communism, and where it has always spoken in favor of diversity.
This led to a bigger discussion about the place of politics in fandom spaces. I personally would understand not talking about electoral politics if we were in a normal election, like Obama vs. Romney, even though the Republicans even then advocated a lot of things that I think is at odds with what Star Trek says. But I don't think people who voted for them were necessarily hateful. I don't think they are people I can't share fandom with, you know? We can be friends. But I think with Trump people are hateful, or at the very least they're okay with hate, given how often he spews it and encourages it in his supporters. I'm a lesbian and I absolutely do feel less safe around people who wear MAGA hats in a way I just didn't around Romney or McCain or Bush supporters. My opinion personally is that it's probably a mistake and what got us to where we are today (sending this in late September 2024, where Harris is slightly up in the polls but it's still very close and Republicans are trying to ratfuck the vote in a bunch of swing states - maybe by the time you answer, the election will be over and we'll know?) that we didn't do enough to recognize that Trump support is either bigotry, or support for bigotry, in a way that should be socially unacceptable and treated as such. That we should have deployed more social shaming over it, especially in places that should be understood to be safe spaces for diverse groups of people, like the fandom of a series like Star Trek.
I was wondering what you thought about this topic. Personally, while I don't think American electoral politics need to be in every aspect of a convention, finding out that actors who played characters I like, writers who wrote shows I love, etc. are supportive of my basic civil rights, not just in broad platitudes but also in how they vote, is really heartening and makes me feel more "welcomed" in fandom. It makes me feel safer there. And the fact that Trump supporters feel excluded also makes it a safer space IMO, because I don't feel safe around those people. I have Republican friends - but none of them who have voted for Trump.
I commented on that while I was still on Xitter. I honestly worry Trump may pose an existential threat to our democracy. I think others feel similarly. I suspect Jeri Ryan, who's seen the rot inside the GOP firsthand, has particularly strong feelings about that as well. So it's no surprise she chose to speak out before the election. And it's certainly her right.
I think it's a bit silly for fans of a franchise that has a strong progressive POV to feel alienated when the artists involved in said franchise embrace its philosophy and choose to take a stand for it.
I worry for us all over the next four years, but the voters have spoken. We'll see how it goes.

Hi! I absolutely love all of your art and Iā€™ve been fallowing you for awhile! Thereā€™s been some rumors that you ship Muriel x crowley?? Which I guess is an odd paring but nothing terrible wrong with, I was just curious if you do ship them.
Thank you for all your wonderful art <3
okay, i want to preface this by saying that I've already been harassed over this to the point of being called a lowkey pedophile and having every little move of mine scrutinized and misconstrued to sickening extents (this harassment spilled over to my partner too, and it was horrible)
so all anyone would do by doing this again would be repeating history, among other things that have to do with fucking up my already frail mental state
now.
onto the meat
yes, I ship it
no, I do not see Muriel as a child, kid, teenager, or anything of the sort and I find it personally distasteful to think of doing so because infantilizing autistic traits rubs me the wrong way (p e r s o n a l l y)
you can do it if you want to, I have worse things to worry about than a random person on the internet thinking something of a fictional character, just don't try to push your headcanon onto me just because you perceive it that way or because it's a popular dynamic that you find fun
adding onto this, i want to add that i will never and i mean fucking NEVER post anything related to that ship outside of the very specific private Xitter account i created for it
(and my personal facebook, on a friends only setting)
any Muriel & Crowley content outside of that account is all platonic and bla bla you get the gist. I can separate things, what a talent.
Now, I'm being overly paranoid and explaining myself to exhaustion over this for a very good reason and it's because last time someone found out about it ((yes we're going full circle to the beginning of this little bible)) they treated it as some sort of GOTCHA moment about me being a pedo ((and if you didn't know this already: I fucking despise children with my whole being, I'd rather be forcefed alligator shit for my whole life than be with one of those creatures for a single day))
It got to the point of that person making extremely hurtful videos about me and their little friend group comprised of goober eating toddlers joining in on the "Hater" train or whatever the hell that new cultural trend is called, as well
It was hell, that whole experience fucked me up BAD and i feel silly for saying this but it was genuinely traumatic! So- I apologize if I'm sounding confrontational here, anon, but like, this is the type of thing you have to do to keep yourself safe now, it's gone to that point and I'm in hysterics now because what the fuck
Lastly, I'd like to say this one other thing
Muriel is played by an adult actress, they are canonically the same age as Aziraphale and Crowley and are also an eldritch creature just like them
The fact that they're nice and bubbly and happen to have autistic traits doesn't suddenly make them a fetus. I have friends with the same personality type as them and I feel like it'd be dumb to treat them like zygotes knowing they're adults with body hair and debt
Again, if you see them as one, I'm literally no one to judge, I'm 1.49, you're better off taking judgement from a stupid lone penguin in the saharan desert.
But don't fuck with others for thinking otherwise, it's not a moral issue to disagree with a headcanon, please. šŸ„²

Please take this Post with satire. I am just ascendingly screaming over the Faba Bio Leak. I waited for this moment to happen and actually gave it up but damn. I WASNT READY FOR THIS AHAHAHA
SMALL DISCLAIMER: I want to clarify. I see those leaked things not as canon. Just as his base idea that they changed through development. But. I am just going to act like as If this would be canon in this post.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BLACK OR BLONDE HAIR. BLACK HAIR FABA WAS AN OPTION?
ey he is 165 cm... That's. THATS LITERALLY THE EXACT HEIGHT I THOUGHT OF HIM AS LMAOOOOOOO. WHATTTTTTT look at my pinned post for proof šŸ«µšŸ» SMALL LITTLE GUYYYY AAAGHHH.
53 years old pretty much fits. I headcanoned him as mid 40's to begin 50's so hell yeah!! Old man!!
.
.
But. One question is.
WHO IS YOUR WIFE AND CHILD. šŸ«µšŸ» WHO IS YOUR WIFE AND CHILD. WHY ARE YOU MARRIED. (I would love to meet them. Maybe.) WHOOOOOOO!!!!! THOOOOO!! WHO WOULD MARRY YOU???? (ahum...yea) I have to headcanon that his concept wife is either just as toxic as him or a poor woman he treats badly. Well I prefer the first hc in that case.
SPEAKING OF TREATING WOMEN BADLY!! THIS DANG ASS MISOGYNIST. PAHAHA. I love how they clarify "opposite Sex" but not same sex? Is this guy a misogynistic closeted gay?? He can have fights with the 1 or 2 misandrist Lesbians on Xitter and get obliterated.
I love that they went with arrested and fired for his ending. He can join Team Plasma in the Anime Jail. (So that's how he met Colress!! okno) but I think it's very cute that in the end they all gave him a second chance in most medias. (Besides the Manga...I guess ahum ahum)
Germanic descent? Still vibe with him as French/Kalosian more but him shouting angrily in German would be SOMETHING. I can see that now so much.... Maybe he is French German after all who knows. Kinda fits. (also my pride of being German just highered itself by 0.0001 %). German region when where we meet Fabas Wife and traumatized Child with awful parents.
The fact he is described super kind to Lusamine is actually very fun. Just sliming himself up the career ladder. I have urges to slap him real bad because all of this //affec
"But thanks to the Aether Foundation he gets great powerful pokemon" IF THAT WOULD BE CANON THEY ONLY GAVE HIM A HYPNO WHAT DO YOU MEAN. And lend him more pokemon afterwards so he can battle you as champion? Would be funny. But yeah. I stand with the HC that all of his mons all have a special reason to be in his team and why he is with them.
But the "his hobby is sexual harassment" cought me so off guard. I can't help but laugh about it. It sounds so bad. The bad wording probably kills me. FABA PLEASE. FOR THINKING USE YOUR BRAIN!! NOT SMTH ELSE. YOU DICKHEAD.
Also it was planned that he gets a watch.... Guy had to show off his rich kid watch surely to impress others.
God damn I want to hit him so hard //affec
I wanna draw a bit related to the leaks as a joke and then come back to answer messages and look what horrors yall think of this ajehdbka
Xenley is preparing her fists because she will be allowed to beat him up.
Lilac is gonna get the first aid and tells him everything will be fine and that this is just a nightmare.

THK EP 7: Uh-oh, trouble in paradise. (My reaction.)Ā 
I tried to stay away from spoilers, but Iā€™m weak. I sneaked a few glances at my Xitter timeline and one at my tumblr dash. What I learned beforehand was:Ā 
Itā€™s Bisonā€™s birthday, and Fadel gifts him a cute cake despite him being angry (Why angry?)Ā 
Keen is spying on FadelStyle in the restroom (itā€™s a trend, right? JoongDunk have a restroom scene in literally every one of their shows. What's more: Dunk said when they met for the very first time ever, they also went together to the restroom to have a little chat. šŸ¤£ Coming back after I watched EP7 to add: Now Style's comment about making friends in restrooms is all the more funnier.)
Fadelā€™s arm is in the sling.Ā 
Fadel uses chloroform on Style. (Why??? šŸ˜­)
They do paintball.Ā 
Style gets jealous.Ā 
There is a scene with a husband?Ā 
Style drives while Fadel points a gun at his head.Ā 
Style, with his arms tied behind his back, clad in only his boxers, sits on the side of an empty swimming pool. (Help! Iā€™m so scared!)Ā Ā 
Thatā€™s it! How does this all add up? Joong said on his IG today that itā€™s not a sad episode. Letā€™s see if heā€™s right.Ā 
Wow, 1:09 hours long! Make that at least two for me. (In the end it took me three. šŸ¤£) I will have to pause and rewind a lot. Roll around on my bed, hitting my pillow, squeeing and screaming. Like always. šŸ˜‚Ā 
My hands are cold as ice. Iā€™m already so emotional and Iā€™m not even two minutes in. Uhh!Ā 
Oh Jesus, Bisonā€™s fake smiles and his overly cute expressions! šŸ¤£šŸ˜­Ā 
Those little kisses and pecks Kant gives Bison are so adorable. Oh my, he is so whipped.Ā 
Omg! That scene with Style on that garage trolley! HOT! Love how Fadel gets Style to consider with a challenging ā€œare you scared?ā€ Itā€™s always the challenges between them.Ā 
OMFG, the dad!!! Muhahahaha! Lol he didnā€™t buy Styleā€™s explanation! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
Styleā€™s dad is so wonderful! I like him a lot. Yes, give Fadel a hint that Style loves with his whole heart!Ā 
The scene with Kant and Bison in bed: Itā€™s so tragic. If you know where Kant is coming from, itā€™s all in his dialogue. He thinks about family and work. Yes. Ooooh, my poor guy.
ā€œNo matter what happens, Iā€™ll keep all the good memories.ā€ Please, no foreshadowing!Ā 
WOW! Bison just said ā€œI love you, Kant.ā€ And Kant said it right back! My heart is aching! Will Style confess his feelings for Fadel in this episode as well?Ā 
Man, I really feel for Kant here. His broken expression. What should he do in a situation like that?Ā 
I LOVE Fadel wearing Styleā€™s shirt and him loving Styleā€™s scent! šŸ˜
Both Kant and Style have noticed and commented upon the fact that their boyfriends act weirdly. Interesting.Ā 
Soooooo adorable! Fadel smelling Style, loving how he smells. Omg! He is an addict. šŸ«  He looks like a cute dog.Ā 
Please, no sad Fadel face! I canā€™t bear seeing that man so miserable.Ā 
The paintball game is so much fun. lol Styleā€™s worried look when he sees Fadel firing his gun. šŸ˜‚
Bisooon, come on ā€œlovers in the trenchesā€, ā€œlike we are going to die togetherā€. Enough with this nonsense. This is a rom com. No one of the couples dies! Kantā€™s ā€œweā€™ll fight through it hand in handā€ is killing me! šŸ˜­Ā 
Bison: ā€œYou gotta protect me, then. Donā€™t let anyone harm me.ā€Ā 
Please, why so much foreshadowing?? šŸ’€
Fadel saying Kant ā€œstarted all of thisā€. Uhhhhh lord, the heavy double meaning! Style did notice something.Ā 
I canā€™t with the heavy double meaning in this scene. Style doesnā€™t know that Fadel knows. šŸ˜­
Style: ā€œProfessional BB gun shooterā€ šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚ Saved at the last second.Ā 
Fadel: ā€œMake sure no one shoots me in the back.ā€Ā 
And then their talk about trust. Whew! Love the subtext!Ā 
FUCK! I knew it! They did intend to shoot them for real! Shit! Kant!!Ā 
Okay, apparently, Bison did intend to shoot Kant for real?Ā 
Ah, no, so there IS still a plan? šŸ˜­Ā 
Whoah! FLASHBACK!
Not Bison burning their trophy! šŸ’€šŸ˜­šŸ˜±
Uh oh!!! So, thatā€™s how Fadel learns how Style got involved! Jesus! Bison just told him straight up. Intense! No, Fadel, donā€™t hit him!Ā 
Tumblr media
Gods, their shouting at each other was hard to watch. I know that Style and Fadel will also have a scene where they will be shouting at each other. Iā€™m not ready for this. Not. One. Bit.Ā 
No, Fadel, you werenā€™t happy before Style. You said so yourself. Stop lying to yourself! šŸ˜­šŸ„ŗ
My goodness, make them fall head over heels in love and then kill them. But they ARE already heads over heels in love! Just open your eyes and see!!Ā 
Man, you are all so wrong! They donā€™t think you are fools, you FOOLS! Seriously, if any of you would just open their eyes and interpret the evidence (couldnā€™t resist the Hannibal reference šŸ˜„).Ā 
HELP!!! I did not expect to witness Bisonā€™s murder fantasies in such explicit detail! šŸ’€šŸ˜±
Oh, my heart is melting! Fadel, you adorable man! The cake is so sweet! With the little house! šŸ„ŗ They want to be safe and normal.Ā 
Style and Kant in the shower. I love how positive Style is. Itā€™s so refreshing. He really brings a bit of light in the darkness of late.Ā 
Well, was that the husband from my spoiler? The disgusting guy with the death glare at Fadel and Bison? Maybe he is the shooter, not Keen?Ā 
Itā€™s getting exciting now!Ā 
Oh no, not me tearing up about Kantā€™s thoughtful gift to Bison. šŸ˜šŸ„ŗ
Not Fadel and Style watching this cute, romantic scene play out right before their very eyes. Fadelā€™s expression is getting to me. He had a partner once, who apparently vanished. Now he has a new partner, but this one is seemingly fake. šŸ˜Ø
Fadel saying Style is unique. My god, just lay it all on the table. All the cards. Enough with these games!Ā 
WHAT!!! Style?? A ring and ask Fadel to marry you!!! Jesus, this is foreshadowing I LOVE!Ā 
WAIT!! WHAT?!!? JESUS, WHAT?? WHAT JUST HAPPENED HERE?Ā 
Tumblr media
For a second, I was worried, Styleā€™s intended way to go was by poison! Look y'all, how worried Fadel got in a blink of an eye! Wasnā€™t he supposed to murder him? Doesnā€™t look to me like he could, though. šŸ¤£Ā 
Did Style really just cough up a ring? The fuck? Muhahahaha, this is such a Style thing to do! I bet Fadel found it secretly endearing. Yeah, look, he calls himself a fool. Yes, a fool for love. Good thing, Styleā€™s love for you is genuine! Open your eyes, Fadel! And please, do marry him!Ā 
Uhh, Fadel? What did you just intend to put into Style and Kantā€™s beer?Ā 
Whatā€™s Keenā€™s plan? Appreciating the antiques?
lol Style, you are so naughty. Wash your hands first, please, would you? šŸ˜‚ I bet Keen is perking up his ears now.Ā 
I think Keen will set his eyes on Style now, right? I believe he had something to do with Fadel's ex, too.
Oh gosh, itā€™s happening! So, Keen wanted to shoot, but itā€™s the disgusting husband from outside the bar!Ā 
Hahaha, Style! lol way to show your jealousy! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
Fuck, fuck, fuck! Everything I thought was WRONG! Bison gets stabbed!!! Not shot! And Fadel gets shot protecting the woman! My goodness! What a mess!Ā 
Tumblr media
Fucking hell! STYLE! Just like that, yes? Picking up a gun and training it at someone with a death threat on your lips. How freaking badass!Ā 
What a captivating scene!! Jesus, lord!Ā 
Huh, a broken arm? Thought he got shot?Ā 
My boys, Fadel and Style! Just realize that there is genuine love between the two of you!Ā 
No, no, no, donā€™t push Style away, Fadel! šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­
Kant breaks my heart. šŸ„ŗšŸ„ŗšŸ„ŗ No, man, Iā€™m crying with Kant here. šŸ˜­
Tumblr media
Oh shit, Kant! Bison! Behave!!!Ā 
Hehehe, Captain Christ cursing is hot!Ā 
No, but Bisonā€™s crazy psycho look at Kant in the trunk was scary. And sexy.Ā Ā 
Nooo, the chloroform scene! Why, Fadel??! šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­
Tumblr media
Nooo, I canā€™t watch this scene!!! Help! I was hoping it wasnā€™t Fadel who would do this to Style!Ā 
Great cinematographic shot, btw. Style has a beautiful back.Ā 
Good god, what is Fadelā€™s plan? (How did he even do all of that with a broken arm???)
Jesus, I canā€™t! Style said he loved Fadel! Man, this scene does my heart no good. It wants to beat out of my chest.Ā 
No, what? Donā€™t hurt him! Whaaat??? You canā€™t end this scene on a gunshot and then nothing! What the hell??Ā 
Shit! Goosebumps! Oh my lord, thatā€™s why Kant is afraid of the ocean! Jesus Christ!Ā 
Tumblr media
Oh, he really did jumb. For Bison! šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­Ā 
NO! Not another cut!Ā 
lol Style! Flirting with your enraged hitman lover. You sure love the rough, romantic side! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
Whatā€™s with the appreciative glances at Fadel? šŸ¤£ Style, you are beyond help.Ā 
Tumblr media
Wellll, that was an emotional rollercoaster! I love this freaking show so much! Next week, we finally get the bathtub scene, yā€™all!Ā 
Whatā€™s with the car bed scene?Ā 
I think they will angrily shout at each other and the car bed scene comes right after that (Dunk said in a clip I watched on YT that both their voices were still raw from shouting at each other for a scene of THK.)Ā 
Kant has to do penance with Bison. Poor man, but he did fall in love with the crazy one. šŸ˜‚Ā 
It looks like Fadel and Style get attacked? Is this the scene where Style gets his injury?Ā 
Gosh, I canā€™t believe the seven days of waiting in doom and misery have begun anew. šŸ˜­
Tumblr media
Joong was right. This episode had its heartbreaking moments, but overall, it wasn't sad, rather dramatic and scary and thrilling.Ā

I've been working on the Bomb Rush Cyberfunk Wiki, and it's now in a completed state! (Kinda? For now at least)
I've been meaning to make this post for a while, but kept putting it off out of nervousness. ^^; Posted this to the game's Reddit already, so a lot of this is copy-pasted from that.
I've been working a lot on the BRC Wiki over on Fandom for a bunch of months now, since it was left pretty barren when I first found it. A lot of missing articles for stuff that should have its own page, plus a lot of unfinished articles. Now it has a lot more info for just about everything for the game!
Though, if you'd prefer to view the Fandom wiki without any Fandom nonsense, you can try to BreezeWiki version! Basically just a mirror that simplifies things, you can do this with any Fandom wiki by replacing the "fandom.com" part of the URL with "breezewiki.com". Kinda works like Nitter.net did for Xitter, if anyone remembers that.
So back on the main topic, the Fandom wiki is now at a point where I can call it complete! Well for the most part. The only thing that really still needs work imo is the Outfits page. It has images of most of the characters in their different outfits, front and back, but there's still a bunch of missing images needed for the rest.
@fauxridium helped create the images used on that particular page, and I wanted to format the rest in a similar way. I have all the characters and outfits, but the problem is just the time it would take for me to put everything together, nevermind just taking good screenshots. If anyone wants to volunteer to handle those images, feel free! Otherwise I'll probably get to it in a few months from now. I'm a bit sick of working on this wiki for so long, hopefully people understand, lol
Anyways, feel free to check out the wiki! I tried to make sure as much info as possible is covered, including sources to tweets and stuff for info that isn't mentioned in the game itself. Please let me know if anything's inaccurate or off, there's only some much fact-checking I can do by myself, so any help no matter how small is appreciated! :>
(Also, if you're wondering about any weird/quirky image captions on some of the pages... wiki work can be very tedious sometimes, to say the least. Then I try to have a little fun so I don't go completely mad from it, lmao. Hopefully nobody minds it too much.)

okay you found me (well the account that wanted to be found anyways šŸ˜­).
love the responses about the sibling dynamics (although i'm under the impression that the sƔmi people hate finland [for good reason]). somewhereville usa is so real [although if you're wondering, you got the vibe of most of the midwest down. much of the suburbs are very anywhereville].
i read your rereading Ć¾r post and one thing i want to add is that i hc that emil was wearing a hot topic logo t shirt (although apparently they don't sell those???). what's another small hc you have about the five?
kksdjlk SORRY!! the activity page on this acct is slow, i notice when i get new followers :P
the sapmi/sĆ”mi irl probably do, but historically speaking, theyre probably closest-ly related to the finnish out of the nordics...maybe. but she could just as well have been adopted. ummm of all the concerning implications Ć¾etta has that i should probably make a long disclaimer about , the sapmi oc thing is the last thing i was thinking ab but maybe ill tack that on whenever i put it together. im thinking last chapter... "im sorry to every nordic person and especially the icelanders in real life for implying you(r natl reps) do incest. i have a fetish and im doing a bit. please stop blocking me on ao3 i didnt even know u could do that"
thank you for the midwestie endorsement!!! it means a lot fr! :D im basing a lot off of TV and somewhat my own experience in the american suburbs. btw this lot live one town over from you so watch out next time u see a blond guy
i could make up headcanons for them all day long ... or i guess in this AU everything i say is canon actually. whoa . thats a lot of power
everyone has a nicotine addiction lowkey (except emil? so far) im talking vapes (timo) im talking zyns (mads) and normal ciggies too (sig) (ber is all of the above)
sig in high school was angry and confused and kind of a freak. i think he wore gir hoodies. he would have loved myspace era jeffery star and being an awful diva but he was doomed to something else entirely by association with the magic (the gathering) club
mads' peak golden retriever bf era was high school. he played sports, he was popular, he started a band with his friends... he just didnt have a plan afterwards and burnt out (temporarily?). SAD
ber was graduating hs ab the time sig and mads were starting. i think he was in band, brass section, socially awkward and a kissless virgin. he thinks back on hs and gets embarrassed about the way he was, but minus the virginity he hasnt changed one bit.
timo is an enigma to me. i have trouble pinning him down. i think he could have been one of those theater kid furries but hes also outgoing and generally likeable by the school population (showers regularly). just kind of a weirdo!
WAIT . THE REST OF THIS LIST IS GOIGN TO BE GOOD ONES
(not incl timo) their shared grandparents were first cousins, and it was less weird back then. :) no, they do not know this. when the day comes he finds out, mads will go into a downwards spiral of "we should have done this thing proper, me and sig could have been married"
timo's full time job is doing furry commissions on xitter and vrchat. im talking some real degen illustrations. he is soon going to start an autobiographical webcomic about furries doing incest (names changed to protect identity) and people online will call him a LARPer and the story unrealistic and it will piss him off so much
fun fact the rest of the town is minorly fleshed out, i used to talk more ab other things too... alfred and gilbert do crossfit with mathias and they do gay shit in the locker rooms and are about 1 flash of insight away from admitting they have a 3p fuckbuddy thing going on but nah nah theyre bros they hang out its fun its lighthearted its male bonding. working out together just does something for the libido you know how it is
gilbert is dating erzsebet (there was a whole sideplot with them and roderich but i forgor it) and alfred is a Sigma Male Who Is Too Cool To Date A Woman but he actually has a weird thing with matthew going on behind closed doors
most of the heta characters are out there in the town and a lot of them went to high school together. or something. england was one of the teachers... aughhhh its been so long since i was talking ab the au the details r murky fml

the recent 2edgy4me rounds of "um ackshually it's okay to commit infanticide/abandon an infant in a dumpster if the mother doesn't want it, what if she was scared" is like the most base lizard-brain take I've seen in a while, what's worse is it's not even the first time people have unironically put forward post-birth abortion (aka infanticide) as a practice we should view neutrally (eugh). or there are those who think it's okay for a woman to continue to do drugs even if she knows she's pregnant and thus willingly harming her developing child. and if you aren't okay with either of the above you're just a misogynist!!! stop trying to control women!!! etc. etc.
like radblr sometimes imitates male sociopathy too closely lmao another one I love is people claiming they're pro-choice but also get mad when a woman didn't abort when "she should have." umm sweatie it's her body her choice is it not? if she wanted to keep her baby what business is it of yours?? this seems like an almost exclusively American attitude for some reason, I'm thinking because the average American is so politicized and fanatical. literally cannot have a normal conversation about any of this without being called a million names and told to kill yourself, radfems on this website are more civil to trans identified males than they are to pro-life women, even liberal or Democrat or atheist pro-lifers, I respect some radfem tumblr users but most of them are just so lacking in self-awareness it's kind of pitiful
It all boils down to radfemistan biggest ideological inconsistency that every choice women make should be critically instigated (shaving, plastic surgery, make up, etc) UNTIL it comes to abortion. Either women have to question every of their choices, or they don't.
Oh, and I might get a lot a shit for that but IDC : the growing trend of women to defend abusive women under the dArvO thing is crazy and they all come off as abusive psycho themselves using coping textbook psychology gotcha to excuse their destructive personality. IDC what radfem say patting themselves in the back for not making fun of Amber Heard (congratulations for being a... decent human being??) they were the first to harass, and bullying pro Depp WOMEN (calling them "Deppford wives"). They even rejoiced when it's been revealed a girl who was pro Depp killed herself (don't know if it was related to her bullying).... Everytime I see a dumb radfem/feminist quote that "Chateau Bunny" xitter girl I get major red flag because that batshit crazy chick was full on invested into those bullying campaigns targeting (young) girls whose only crime was defending Johnny Depp. Bunch of deranged no life witches....
I'm absolutely not here for their dumb historical revisionism of them acting like they were the only one to stand for "women" when they were in the socials streets harassing women for thought crime. They were there to defend a hot blonde millionaire woman from defamation allegations they somehow projected into - that's all.
You're absolutely right about feminist oddly having a bigger commitment harassing fellow women than men. There were plentiful pro Depp moids, as far as a I know.
I understand there's no "perfect victim" and that you can violently react to violence inflicted to you firsthand, but what I don't understand is that they act like this shit was a prerogative of women. I'll never forget how those feminists were like "there's no perfect victim" to defend Amber Heard .....while dragging all the nasty shit Johnny Depp did decades ago to prove he couldn't possibly be a victim himself. Or because he was richer or older... Wasn't Heard richer/more famous than her ex she was infamously arrested for physical abuse? That her stans argue the openly LGBT female officer that came on the scene was lesbophobic?? And then they use the fact the ex gf withdrawing her justice complain is evidence nothing actually happened, because WE ALL KNOW DV victims NEVER backtrack when they take action against their abuser? šŸ’€
If genders were reversed, we all know those women wouldn't go to all those hoops to defend Heard shady past, but we all know why they do that...
That's what I dislike the most with abortionist/feminist : they're so duplicitous and hypocrite you can't never rely on them to be remotely consistant on the broad scale. I'm absolutely not surprised a bunch of them turned pro white supremacists when it came to kill Palestian women bc it was an opportunity to kill "rapists Muslims".
They have the same destructive mindset with their anti tra obsession, now rubbing shoulders with know racists rightoids known to not give a shit about women's rights unless it comes to shit on (alleged) trans people. It was first Kiwifarm and now xitter bluecheckmarks muskophants they screenshot as gender"expert". We are in the trenches.

Pettiness is everything, it seems
Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that the rest of us are going to have to live through it all (... when possible, of course), watching the outbreaks of internecine warfare among the far right would be truly amusing.
This is the chunk of the article that is TRULY amusing:
...Some conservatives said they considered Xā€™s actions to be a betrayal by Musk, who purchased the service then known as Twitter in 2022 in part because he said it had unfairly limited conservative speech. Musk has since called himself a free-expression advocate, even as he calls for jailing some of his critics.
Musk and X did not respond to requests for comment on Friday. But on Thursday night, about an hour before some conservatives started complaining about losing access to Xā€™s premium features, Musk posted what he called ā€œa reminderā€ on X. He wrote that the siteā€™s algorithm automatically reduces the reach of a user if theyā€™re frequently blocked or muted by other, credible users.
ā€œIf far more credible, verified subscriber accounts (not bots) mute/block your account compared to those who like your posts, your reach will decline significantly,ā€ Musk posted.
But rather than satisfying people complaining about censorship, the post elicited even more accusations that Musk was shadowbanning his conservative critics, or reducing engagement on their posts without officially disclosing such actions to affected accounts....
I mean ... seriously, it is to laugh. It's been brutally clear that Musk's position is generally "my way or the highway", and how conservative or liberal you are is, if not exactly irrelevant, less important than doing what he wants or agreeing with him.
(I will just note that previously, the most muted/blocked account on Xitter was ... Musk. And he forced his techs to find ways around that. One can but assume that there's a one-account restricted workaround, if what he says about the site algorithm is true.) (One suspects it is not -- or at least, not simply -- but that is only one's opinion.)
One wonders if he'll dare to do such things to Agent Orange.
Bet he will.
That'll be fun.
For really peculiar values of "fun", of course.

ok bluesky is the shit
threads was fun for a minute but i got bored, it's still very barebones compared to xitter
but bluesky is amazing so far, the fact that they even have a media tab and pinned feeds is so refreshing
i'll still always keep xitter bc i've been on there for like 15 years or something atp and i have friends on there that i MET on there that i have known for like a decade now, and idk if they'll move
so regardless i'll still be on it
but for just daily vibes, i think bluesky is the one
and the app is beautiful

So, this is going to be a strange bit of tangent-rant, what with all the Xitter-ing about Stellar Blade, sexualization, and whatnot. I promise, though, it's more random chatter than my own opinion on the matter (which is, more or less, idgaf). Reader beware.
For the unaware, Stellar Ass is an upcoming Korean video game starring a female main character modeled after a, well, model from Korea. However, the likeness isn't one-to-one, as there's some anime-ification going on with her face and hair, so there are definite liberties being taken with the character.
Naturally, though, people are less focused on her face and more focused on her butt and thighs, because her design is very much going into Hornyville in terms of accentuation, over-curvature, her swoocy movements, and her attire, or lack thereof.
Granted her butt and thighs are nowhere near as fantastic as Raiden from Metal Gear, but enough people have been chattering over her to trigger others who find this kind of design distasteful for many reasons. The thing is, it's a valid criticism to throw at a game, relying on some form of eye candy to draw people in.
It happens ALL THE TIME because that's what character design in games is about: making a character attractive and memorable to draw in the player and keep them hooked. It's not always sexy, though. Sometimes it's cute, sometimes it's cool, and sometimes it's just familiar to the player.
Having said that, it is also often a problem to design characters with sex appeal in mind, and it almost always involves female characters due to an inherent double standard that has yet to fade due to the many cultures that handle the issue in different ways.
Not that you can't make a sexy main character and still make them enjoyable to some extent as a character, but impressions will always be on visuals first, especially when knowing the persona of a character requires a time investment. In that way, a lot of the reactions based on appearance go both ways for equally valid reasons.
Similar complaints were made about Bayonetta and Nier: Automata, which are all equally valid, and could be made about the old Tomb Raiders if not for the rather cartoony cover arts (also that they toned down her boobs the more realistic they became in visual style). It's a means of hooking that is often used with a game that may not hit it off on gameplay alone.
The trouble is that the sexualized character can cause mixed signals, making an otherwise unremarkable game seem amazing because the sexy girl (or, rarely, guy) in the middle of the screen is triggering a positive reaction- brain chemicals, yada yada- from that alone. Hence why someone like me, who is asexual, generally is unaffected and has a more grounded opinion of such games.
I found Tomb Raider to be interesting to play, even if platforming in the remake was really buggy, forcing me to cut it short. Bayonetta felt too much like DMC 4 for me to actually buy the game, plus the magic hair idea and the heel-revolvers felt too dumb to me. Nier Automata was the first game to actually make my eyes hurt due to its washed out, sepia'd locations, and I found the game really boring even with its supposed "great story": it was just treading the old ground of other games that came before it without adding its own unique flair.
I can't help looking at Stellar Blade and thinking it'll be more of the same: people confused by their own excites into thinking a game is better than it is, much in the way the adrenaline rush of playing certain stupidly-difficult games can make you think a certain game is fun when it's actually badly designed and forcing you to win against unfair odds.
There's a lot of focus on how a game makes us feel when judging it, rather than judging it based solely on its status as a game. The fact that too many people can't separate their like or dislike of a game from its actual quality leads many to praise an otherwise bad game or condemn an otherwise good game, all over what the game makes them 'feel'.
To reel it back in, liking a game because it has a sexy character you want to watch and wank to, while I guess being fine, doesn't mean someone is wrong to criticize that design for being as such and further complain about 'oversexualization'. Especially when that sexiness is always the focal point of promotional media, cutscenes, animations, etcetera.
It's a very normal reaction to something that is still perceived as in the realm of sexism, sometimes because it comes from a culture that doesn't have the same values or progression as our own in that field. It's still a talking point that inevitably causes flared tempers, mainly because the people liking these sexy main characters feel attacked when the point is brought up.
Unfortunately, the defensive reflex really reveals more about them as a person than anything else, being unable to admit that 'Yes, this character is oversexualized, and I'm okay with that,' because the connotations to go with that are bad. It very easily lends to some extremist name-calling and labeling when the discussion should be focused on whether this is an okay thing in general or if it continues to promote an objectification ideal.
The problem then becomes the 'but it's a fictional character,' argument, which is a weak argument at its core due to the fact that separating fiction from reality relies on an individual knowing themselves in and out (which is impossible, mind you). However, a lot of what we like in fiction and onward is a translation of what we want subconsciously or would gravitate towards in reality because that's how the brain circuits are wired.
Again, this is focusing purely on the visual representation. For the pure reason that most consumers will always go for the instant gratification effect rather than hold off for the longer-lasting good effect. Part of why gacha games are so popular and addicting, but that's a subject for another time.
I guess, in the end, this tangent-rant is mostly a complaint that the problem isn't the character themselves but our unwillingness to have an actual discussion on how this can be a problem, how it may perpetuate a problem, and how it should be allowed to receive these criticisms, even if some of the complaints are plastered with buzz words or using it as basis for a really bad agenda.
We'll all love good-looking designs, be they sexy, cool, cute, or just reminiscent of someone we know, but we should always be willing to criticize them. Same for games. Your feelings for something and the quality of it are two entirely different things.
If you can't separate the two from each other, then either you need to learn how you can do that or simply admit your own bias and never render judgement.
Anyways, that's all I wanted to get out of my system. Again, my own opinion of Stellar Blade's MC is "I don't care," because I've seen enough of that kind of thing to just be numb to it. Also it's not as bad as a lot of character designs in Artery Gear and Nikke, or the stupid Nero Saber Venus look in Extella.

That's a really good question!
First of all, I definitely relate. I have a really hard time keeping up with everything myself, and it's super unsatisfying when you only get dry, dense articles from googling.
I'm extremely fortunate that I work directly with people who were actually involved with these missions, and they're all too excited to share. I first heard about Curiosity's morse code wheels from someone who actually worked on Curiosity, and fact checked it by googling "Curiosity morse code wheels" afterwards. But its super frustrating that I had to already know about it to effectively search for it!
Genuinely, what I'd recommend for causal passive absorption of fun space stuff is to follow NASA, NASA engineers, and your favorite missions on social media. Curiosity has its own Xitter account, and it still updates frequently with fun little stories from the rover's point of view!
I've also had luck watching interviews with the scientists and engineers who were part of these projects! Like documentaries or even just short spotlights. People LOVE to talk about the stuff they work on, and are usually more comfortable sharing silly stories in a video format than in a published article. Like, did you know NASA holds panels at comic con? Because I didn't, but you can find a lot of them on youtube!
Anyway part of what I want to do with this blog is share the fun details that I've picked up. If there's something you want to hear more about let me know :)
Tumblr media
Ask and you shall receive.
So do y'all know about Curiosity's wheels? They have these cool hole patterns!
Tumblr media
The holes are ostensibly for tracking wheel slippage. The pattern is stamped in the Martian sand, and by taking a picture of the tracks and measuring the distance between the repeating hole marks, you can tell how much the wheels are slipping.
But the pattern isn't arbitrary! Curiosity (along with many many other NASA missions) was built by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory - or "JPL". While JPL is entirely federally funded and almost exclusively works on NASA missions, it's technically operated by Caltech, not NASA. When JPL was assembling Curiosity, they added some "JPL" decals to it along with the cool "Curiosity" label on the arm.
Tumblr media
Well, NASA HQ found out and got mad. "You can't put those JPL stickers all over our rover!" they said, and made JPL scrape them all off.
JPL reluctantly complied, but definitely got the last laugh. No decals allowed? Well fine - the holes in Curiosity's wheels say "JPL" in Morse code. So every few feet, the name of the real creator of the rover is stamped into the surface of Mars!
