The Old Town Trolley System

I figured it didn't make sense that Old Town doesn't have trolley tracks when its iconic icon is literally a trolley. Luckily, the updated SimPe enables us to EASILY add or remove roads!

So, I decided to turn Maple Street as one end of a trolley route with another ending in a loop further towards the waterfront.

The loop near the school and stadium rabbit holes.

Also, now that we can modify roads on SimPe, we can change how the roads look with regards to hood deco. Now, the Gunther Goth Highway is connected to the two lanes of the lake causeways.

A zoomed out view of the Old Town quarter, now featuring a ferry landing, a bus depot, a school, a stadium, a hospital, and later on, beach lots.

SETH STOMPED PAUL INTO THE EARTH AND THEN HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY,

“NOW YOU OWE ME.”

LIKE???

WHAT KIND OF MAFIA BOSS PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE IS THAT???

Paul was LITERALLY lying there like a broken Victorian woman on the fainting couch, and Seth’s just hovering over him with that “burn it down” energy like:

“I gave you trauma. Now give me loyalty.”

THE GASLIGHTING. THE NARCISSISM. THE THEATRICALITY.

This wasn’t a wrestling segment, it was a villain monologue in Act III of a tragic opera.

And now Paul?? That poor, trembling man?? He owes BOTH CM Punk and Seth Rollins something… and Roman’s gonna want blood too????

HE’S IN A TRIPLE THREAT OF EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL.

I swear this man needs a lawyer, a therapist, and a hug.

Ya'll ready for Mania? Because this match is gonna be violence + betrayal + sobbing.

ALSO DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON RHEA RIPLEY!

“REPRESENTING JUDGMENT DAY, RHEA RIPLEY”

WHEN THIS WOMAN LEFT THE GOTHIC BOY BAND A WHOLE YEAR AGO?!?!?!?

WWE really said:

“Facts? Timeline? Continuity? We don’t know her.”

LIKE BABE.

This woman:

Was betrayed by Dom, left Judgment Day in full black eyeliner and emotional DEVASTATION, rebuilt herself in solo Mami mode AND IS NOW A WHOLE DAMN FORCE OF NATURE ON HER OWN...

AND THEY’RE STILL ANNOUNCING HER LIKE SHE’S IN A GROUP CHAT WITH FINN AND DOM???

The disrespect.

The AUDACITY.

Rhea heard that intro and probably whispered backstage:

“Who the fuck wrote that??”

LIKE… YOU JUST ANNOUNCED HER TO THE WORLD AS PART OF A FREAKING FACTION SHE LEFT IN FLAMES

and then casually go

“teehee whoopsie daisy, silly lil lore mistake xD”

BABE. YOU’RE WWE.

YOU CONTROL THE SCRIPT.

WHO. PRESSED. SEND. ON THAT PROMPT???

Meanwhile Rhea is probably backstage filing her nails with a dagger and muttering,

“You’ll get it right when I take the title back.”

This is now canon:

Rhea is SO powerful that the announce team just defaulted to putting her in Judgment Day because they can’t process her existing as a solo force.

Even when she leaves, she’s still the whole brand.

Bianca was giving “I’m not scared of you but also VERY scared of you so let me talk fast and loud” energy and it was ICONIC.

She really hit Rhea with:

“You’re not the champion anymore, sweetheart, so sit down, shut up, and sign the contract before I braid you into the mat.”

AND RHEA???

She was about to respond, voice low, rage bubbling, probably about to say something that would’ve made the ring catch on fire... and Bianca just went full-on

“NOPE. Don’t even open your mouth. You’re here to sign, not speak.”

THE AUDACITY. THE DELUSION. THE SASS.

And Rhea?? That little tight smile of pure violence??

You know she filed that moment away for “Future Spine Removal Plans” at Mania.

We’re gonna get to that match and Rhea’s gonna whisper:

“Say shut up now, bitch.”

before hitting a Riptide through the announce table.

Honestly? I love it. The energy. The tension. The “bitch, I dare you” dynamic.

Also

THE ZIP TIES HAVE BEEN DEFEATED.

Jey Uso is loose, free, and out here cutting emotional promos like he didn’t just spend a full week tied up like it was Saw: WWE Edition.

WWE really said:

“We’re not gonna explain how he got out. Just… trust that he’s fine now.”

And Jey pulled up like:

“Yeah, anyway, I’m gonna beat Gunther now. For Jimmy. No further questions.”

Like SIR. I HAVE QUESTIONS.

Who freed you?? Are your wrists okay? Do you have zip tie trauma flashbacks?? Did anyone at least bring you a snack???

But nah, he just walks out like the traumatized king he is, doesn’t mention it, and fully channels that experience into fighting for his brother.

He’s officially in his “I survived zip ties and now I want a title” era.

And honestly? I’m proud.

We need to update the conspiracy board(Yes i have conspiracy board, ya'll not ready for that one lmao) :

ZIP TIE STATUS: DESTROYED.

EMOTIONAL DAMAGE: ACTIVE.

REVENGE ARC: LOADING…

Exploring the Ice King (1)

As I write these lines, the first snowfalls happened in France. To fit with the weather, I thought of starting something I was planning to do for quite a long time... A series of posts talking about Adventure Time's Ice King.

Well... not posts talking really about him. But rather posts talking about the origin, the formation, the tropes and archetypes at play with this character. Adventure Time is a very, very weird media in terms of mediatic evolution as it is a very bizarre yet influential step in the evolution of fantasy, placing itself as the unusual crossroad between faithful homage, absurdist parody and fresh continuation. It's... well it's weird. And the Ice King, one of the most crucial characters of the series, is a literal melting pot of MANY many different elements of the fantasy fiction.

I will start in this post with the function of the Ice King, mainly how he manifests the type of the "recurring pitiful villain".

When I think of a potential cultural ancestor for the Ice King, being a French person, I immediately think of Gargamel, the main antagonist of the Smurfs.

Why? It seems at first the two have nothing in common... And yet when you think about it, the two are old, ugly men practicing magic. The two are recurring villains that become one of the iconic head of the show. The two start as a legitimate, creepy, evil threat and then devolve in a pathetic, foolish, almost friendly foe - notably because each of their scheme and plan is bound to fail or blow back in their face, as part of the law of "evil can't win". The two are driven by a monomania, an obsession that becomes their main trait (capturing princesses/capturing the Smurfs), and the two have an animal sidekick that they treat with a mix of abuse and love (Gunther/Azrael).

I can't claim that the Ice King was directly inspired by Gargamel... But it is interesting to point out that the Ice King answers to a very specific type of villain in older children cartoon: the recurring but ineffective villain, the returning protagonist who always fail and despite his antagonism is part of the "main cast" so to speak, the "evil" guy who isn't so much evil as just a weird goof we laugh more at than we really dread.

A more American example could be Dick Dastardly from "Wacky Races", who has the bonus point of also having an animal sidekick:

There are many, MANY iconic and classic exemples of the "recurring, ineffective villain" in older children cartoons. I evoked Gargamel and Dick above because of their familiar animal, which highlights the parallel, but other "predecessors" of the Ice King include The Professor from Felix the Cat (bonus point for being an old man with a strong white theme and this huge mustache - and extra bonus point when you know that "Felix the Cat" was one of the first inspirations for Adventure Time's artstyle):

Elmer Fudd, who was eventually so pitiful in his evilness that Yosemite Sam had to be introduced (Yosemite Sam could also have played a part in the Ice King's creation as he has the King's short-temper mixed with the luscious facial hair):

You can also count in Wile E. Coyote - he isn't obviously related to the Ice King and I don't think he was an inspiration, but he is one of the icons of the "loser villain" that keeps inventing extravagant schemes, a monomaniac who is doomed to never succeed.

Or Shredder, from the old Teenage Turtle Ninjas cartoon...

... Or even "Eggman" Robotnik from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise (there is something to be said about how a lot of these characters enjoy excentric facial hair).

And to conclude we need, of course, to bring forward the greatest of all these ineffective antagonists, and one that clearly did have an influence over Adventure Time: Skeletor, who was such a failure that the writers of He-Man themselves took pity on the guy and ultimately replaced him with alternate antagonists.

All of these "predecessors" did form a type of villain, a niche that the Ice King nicely filled. However, the Ice King's first "function" was not to be such a sad clown of a villain...

[unintentionaloracle]

I'm still genuinely excited and curious about who's gonna win the women's Chamber match.

1) They're all good options! Bianca vs Rhea's been teased in the past, Rhea and Naomi haven't gone one on one much (plus the Jhea fan in me thinks it'd be funny if they were like "Jey who are you rooting for?" And he's like "...I am staying out of this, I got a Gunther to crush"), Bayley vs Rhea also hasn't happened a lot, Roxanne vs Rhea could be cool especially with how Roxanne's evolved since their first encounter, Alexa and Rhea have NEVER gone 1 on 1 as far as I know (and they have some history especially that iconic "Rhea eliminating her before she could go full Dark Alexa/Sister Abigail(?) on everyone" that one Rumble), and even with Liv and Rhea (despite my burnout with the feud/"please let Rhea fight other women") there's at least enough history and chemistry to make the build easier than the other women's world title match's build so far. (And we can always make it a stipulation: I would KILL for an ambulance match for thematic reasons.)

And 2) I don't think there's really any obvious frontrunners, you know? The men's I feel has a lot of guys that are like "sweetie, you aren't winning this" and also I just feel like Cena's got this more locked in than the Rumble? If that makes sense? But like while I can see some feuds continuing/alternate options for the women. Bayley vs Roxanne seems highly likely. Liv just won the women's tag belts–whether I like it or not–and despite those belts not getting defended at Mania the last two years, that could still be her future (though Bianca's post about her tag run makes me think they aren't going for those). There's still whatever is happening with Jade for Bianca and Naomi. And Alexa might have some Wyatt Sicks stuff in her future.

I dunno, I might be over optimistic, but I have some hope.
