#hiding this in the tags but basically 2 months in i entered a stage of mental unwellness that lasted a long time

[hoshizoralone]

You like vocaloid stuff, so have you ever played Project Sekai? Curious what you'd think of it/its characters.

during its first launch i played it pretty religiously for like 2 months. i really liked the musical theatre guys theyre funny (in general i love boy + girl combos in things that usually are girl centric (this is why idolmaster crossbranch content rules), musical theatre guys edge out the other group for being funny)

i have no substantial thoughts on anyone else EXCEPT i cannot stand anyone in 25ji or whatever theyre called. except mizuki theyre chill but everyone else in it annoys me so bad like damn … every time i see someone say a story update they have its always some insane shit like if this was actually going down on vocatwit half the group would have the craziest callouts. mizuki get out of there

crypton vocaloidwise my interest goes kaito = meiko > luka > rin > [MASSIVE POWERGAP] len = miku

Soy Sol: Chapter 8 (Long Story Short, It was a Tough Day)

Wattpad Link

Ch.1 / Ch.2 / Ch.3 / Ch.4 / Ch.5 / Ch.6 / Ch.7 / Ch.9 / Ch.10 / Ch.11 / Ch.12 / Ch.13 / Ch.14 / Ch.15 / Ch.16 / Ch.17

Simón approaches the doors of the Jam and Roller. He pulls out a set of keys from his pocket and selectively picks the one with the J&R emblem engraved on it. He’s surprised when he grabs the doorknob and is able to open it without unlocking it himself. He walks in cautiously. “Is anyone here?” No one answers. Everything seems to be intact. He wonders maybe Pedro forgot to lock up last night?

He keeps walking around and gets a little startled noticing a person sitting in front of the main desk in the office. He shakes his head and rubs his tired eyes. Sitting there is Ámbar, crying in her arms.

“Linda que paso? What happened?” He worriedly rushes by her side. “It’s official, no one’s buying this place. No one wants it. Vidia is planning to tear it down and sell the land on its own.” More tears begin to cover her face. This place grew to be extremely close to Ámbar’s heart. After everything that happened with Sharon, the only constant in her life was the Jam and Roller. Being able to skate help relieve her from her anxieties and at least have one moment to be alone with the world. When she got offered the position to be manager, she couldn’t be more thrilled. Putting her heart and soul into setting up events for the gang and making sure everything was in place helped her feel more in control with her life. She was able to calm down the mess that surrounded her and pick up the pieces one by one. Hearing the official news coming from their lawyers was earth shattering for her, it was too surreal.

Simón didn’t know what to do in this moment. He ‘can’ say things will get better, but he doesn’t want to give her false hope, doesn’t want to sugarcoat it. He feels that saying an advice in this instant would only make things worse so he does what he knows best, he hugs her. A quiet display of showing you’re there for that person, always.

When they hear Pedro enter the cafeteria with Delfi, Ámbar and Simón get up from their chairs and go back to work. Ámbar wipes away all the tears with her sleeve and tries to put more makeup to cover her puffy skin.

After two hours pass by, Luna enters with Nina. “Wow Luna I can’t believe he stood you up,” Nina replies. Simón overhears Nina’s comment and hurries over to Luna’s side. “Is this true? Matteo stood you up?” Luna starts trembling and tries to find the right words to say but nothing comes out of her mouth. “I-I- …... okay how do I explain this. Yes, he left me alone all night till the restaurant closed. When I was sitting on the bench in front waiting for my taxi, he arrived. He tried to explain to me that he lost track of time because Viviana was bothering him on filming more scenes for their music video. Basically, it’s all mess. This whole relationship has turned into a mess. He lied to me by not telling me he was going to be with Viviana. If he had told me, it would’ve been okay, but he didn’t, which is why I’m upset. If you lie to someone about being with another person that means you don’t want them to know, which most of the time indicates you’re hiding a secret.” Luna sighs from her mouthful of words.

“Luna, I don’t want to make it sound worse but you’re right. If he lied to you about being with Viviana, there’s a chance he’s hiding something. There’s no necessity to lie about filming with a coworker…. Unless he has feelings for that coworker. Sorry you have to go through all of this.” Simón hugs Luna and tries to console her. “Amiga, remember these are all assumptions we’re making. We don’t know the full truth so maybe he was keeping everything a secret for a reason. We are still missing parts of the story,” Nina advised. “I don’t think so Nina. I think I should just start moving on and start focusing more on me and you guys of course. Oh, that reminds me. How are those wedding plans going Simón?” Simon widely opens his eyes in shock and covers his mouth with his hand. “No no no nooooooo”

“Que paso Simón? Why are you so upset suddenly?” Luna asked.

“Ámbar and I have been so caught up with issues pertaining to the Jam and Roller that we completely forgot to prepare the wedding and plan everything out.”

Luna lays her hand on Simon’s shoulder, trying to comfort him. “Well, you don’t have to worry about that anymore because I can help with whatever you guys need.” “Yeah, me too,” Nina tags along.

“Also, what issues do you guys mean when ‘pertaining to the Jam and Roller?’” Luna questions.

“You’ll find out soon, and by soon I mean around…. now.” Simón states while staring at the clock.

Ámbar leaves the office carrying a clipboard and heads to the stage of the cafeteria. “May I get everyone’s attention! I have some disappointing news to say. For a while, Simon and I have constantly tried to negotiate with Vidia, in hopes that this beautiful place stays as it should. Sadly, our wishes were not met and Vidia has officially announced that it will be tearing this place down and selling the land. Sorry to be the bearer of this awful news, I wish I didn’t have to. I wish that the Jam and Roller can stay for generations and generations on. This place has been the spot where many of us have shared experiences together and won a few competitions. It deserves to stay here, but the owners disagree.”

Everyone gasps in astonishment. Some covering their mouths, some leaving it open, some having visible tears coming out. Everyone reacts as if the place was already completely gone and become a deserted land. Eric (Jandino) enters the place. “Hey guys what did I miss?” Everyone’s red puffy faces glance towards him. “Oof tough crowd huh?” Nina is the first to respond and make the situation a little less awkward. “The Jam and Roller is going to be teared down.” Eric stays speechless and just nods in response.

“This can’t be the end of this place. Are we really going to give up so quickly? Vidia tried to sell it and we were able to convince them not to. This time could be the same,” Luna exclaims.

“This time is different though because the investors don’t need this place anymore and no one wants to buy a skating rink since it’s ‘old fashion’ and ‘not modern.’ This place was in the market for months. Simón and I hoped someone would buy it but no one did. The only way for us to even have a chance to keep it is if someone purchased this place,” Ámbar refuted.

“That shouldn’t be so bad. All we have to do is find someone who is rich and has a kind heart,” Luna proudly states. “Luna are you insane? Where we are we going to find a kind, rich person? This isn’t a cartoon where stuff magically appears out of nowhere to help and save us. Yeah, that’s right Mickey, I’m talking about you and your “musketeer named Toodles,” we all know that’s fake.” Jazmin argued in front of her tablet camera.

“You are right... well on the first part. But I have an idea, maybe I can afford it!” Luna confidently states.

Ámbar gently brings Luna’s hopes down again. “I’ve already checked how much I have in the bank from the half you gave and doubled that and it’s still not enough for the place Luna.” Luna pouts, facing the ground. “Oh... well I guess never mind then.”

Delfi comes up with an idea. “Hey what about Matteo? He is rich now from being a star and all.” She then points to the man in sunglasses who had been staring at Luna ever since he arrived. Luna didn’t realize it till now. “If that’s what you guys want, I’ll buy it. How much does it cost?” Ámbar walks to Matteo. “I’m showing you in secret, so you don’t get embarrassed with your net worth not being enough,” Ámbar explained. “Oh please, it can’t be that bad.” Ámbar show’s him the clipboard and points to the bottom. Matteo begins to sweat. “Oh…... um guys I can afford it but then I’ll be broke with no where to live.”

“Great! I guess that means the Jam and Roller is saved then! Yay!” Jazmin yells out. “Jazmin we can’t force Matteo to do such a grand gesture either,” Gaston responds. “And why not?”

“Jazmin are you really asking that question after he said he would be broke?” Gaston added. “Yes, I don’t see the problem.” Gaston shakes his head and covers his eyes with his fingers from annoyance.

“You guys, it’s hopeless,” Ámbar announces and walks away, heading straight to her office.

Nina walks over to Luna’s side. “Why aren’t you so sad Luna? I mean of course I wouldn’t want you to be sad, but I thought the news would be devastating for you since you love this place so much.”

“This place isn’t getting teared down. At least not under my watch. I will find a way to keep this place the way it is. I will just need to do some research,” Luna persists. “Luna you never seize to surprise me. Whatever help you need, I’m right here,” Nina chuckles.

Eric approaches Nina and tries to comfort her. “Yeah, I bet this must be awful news for you guys. I know I wasn’t here long enough but one thing I know for sure is that this place is certainly magical.” Gaston views Eric close with Nina and he immediately rushes over. He places his arm around Nina’s waist. “Your Corazon will really stop going wowow if you keep flirting with my girl!” “Gaston!” Nina is shocked and tries to calm him down from his jealousy burning his own skin.

“Guys I think I’m going to head home. It’s been a rough morning and I barely got any sleep,” Luna waved goodbye to the gang. Gastón gestures over to Matteo letting him know Luna is leaving. Matteo runs over to the parking lot.

“Luna wait, can you give me a second to explain everything.” Matteo calls out to her. “Matteo, you’re the person I least want to talk to right now.”

“Luna I’m sorry. I’m sorry for arriving extremely late and standing you up. I’m sorry for not replying to all your calls and messages. I’m sorry I lied about the video with Viviana. I didn’t tell you though because I was worried you would get upset and think I remotely like the girl,” Matteo confesses.

“Hah so you’ve even noticed that she’s been extremely close and has been flirting with you,” Luna attested.

“What no? It’s not like that at all. You’re just jealous.” Luna turns around and displays a furious expression, this is the moment when Matteo noticed he had chosen the wrong set of words. “Jealous? That’s what you think of me? Maybe you’re just too blinded by fame to realize she’s constantly glued to you. Haven’t you noticed that when she talks to you, she gradually grows closer and closer to you and whenever you two go out she tries to hold your arm and pull you in tight. I’ve seen all the paparazzi videos so I know. Plus, she’s always calling you. She calls you more than your own manager does,” Luna argued.

“Oh please Luna, you’re just being delusional.” Matteo hears his phone ringing. He pulls it out and notices it’s Viviana calling him. “Yet I’m the delusional one, you have just become so full of yourself you can barely even notice what’s actually going on,” Luna walks away. “Wait, Luna please don’t go.” This time she doesn’t listen to him and keeps walking away without a slight turn of her head.

Luna’s Home

Luna enters her room and throws herself in bed. It’s barely Sunday and Luna feels a whole tornado of emotions have taken over her body. She doesn’t feel like doing anything, not even taking off her socks from wearing her shoes or wiping off her light makeup. She grabs her blanket and tries to fall asleep on top of her bed.

After an hour has passed, her mom knocks on her door and gently opens it. She sees her daughter sleeping and tries to lightly pat her. Luna’s eyelashes wiggle and brush against her skin. She slowly wakes up. “I brought you some breakfast, just thought maybe you haven’t eaten and were probably hungry.” Luna happily smiles. “Mom you know me too.” Monica smiles back too and hands her a tray of waffles with strawberries. Ah strawberries. The least she needed was to be reminded of “el chico fresa.” Her smile slowly disappears and turns into a frown.

“Hija, lately I’ve been seeing you all down in the dumps. Always depressed and never wanting to do much other than sleep. Are you okay? This isn’t normally like you,” Monica sincerely concerned, looks at Luna in the eyes.

“Everything just seems to be falling apart. Not just dealing with Matteo and I’s relationship ending but also the Jam and Roller too. Apparently Vidia is planning to tear it down and the only way for us to be able to have the chance to keep the Jam and Roller intact is to purchase it but none of us can afford such a high price.”

Monica nods and tries to conjure up an idea. Eventually one crosses her mind. “Luna, I’m shocked you didn’t think of this earlier, especially since it deals with your favorite hobby in ‘el mundo mundial,’” Monica says.

“What does skating have to do with this?” Luna laughs.

“Competitions. I know there’s some competitions out there in which the grand prize is a sum of money. Why don’t you guys enter one and try to compete.” Luna lets go of her fork and soon becomes energetic. “Mom that is genius!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!” Luna yells out and tightly hugs her mom.

“Well you know what they say, us moms are geniuses,” Monica chuckles. Luna hastily grabs her computer and retrieves to her bed. She opens up the laptop and begins typing and searching through. “Well Luna I guess I shall leave you to it. Glad I was able to help. Love you hija.” Monica kisses Luna’s forehead and leaves. “Love you too mom!”

After searching for hours, Luna is able to find a competition in which the grand prize pays most of the Jam and Roller price tag. When calculating the percentages, Luna notices that what’s left to pay after all the costs are taken up, is affordable for the whole gang. She jumps up and down all around her bedroom with content pouring out of her. The Jam and Roller finally has a chance to stay. Maybe things can even go back to old times when they all skated together.

🎬 About Me

Original art of me and my fictional hubby, Ukai Keishin, by @achieve-the-sun​, posted with permission. 💕 

Hi there!

My name is Nin and I am the founder of Crushzone Cinema Theater. 📽 🍿 

🎬 THE BASICS

Age: 23

Birthday: December 24th

Pronoun: She/her

Education: Graduated with a dual degree in Film and Global History

Occupation: Is currently a film freelancer in the camera department, who desperately needs money to pay rent every month lol.

Likes: 

- The sound of rain tapping on my window

- Watching my plants rise and droop to the moving sun

- Cooking and experimenting with different cuisines; Japanese, Thai and Chinese are some of my favorites.

- Giving my husband and my cat their head rubs every night.

- Drawing, painting, and photography. (Here’s some of my works!)

- The feeling of accomplishment after you’ve gone through SO much for a project with your peers. To work on your own movie or short film, and finally seeing it done, is such a rewarding experience.

- To eat my Mac and Cheese with ketchup, nutritional yeast, and steamed broccoli. (Fight me lol. 🦖 )

- Eating chips with chopsticks.

- Medjool dates with a spoonful of crunchy peanut butter 😋 

-Wearing oversized clothes, especially hoodies.

- Sitting at my reading nook, with my cat next to me on the chair.

Dislikes: 

- The buzzing sound bees make when they fly.

- Slipping on my own chunk of hair on the ground; I have a lot of hair and I shed a lot.

- The heat, I may be from Thailand, but I am very much done with the blaring heat. One second I’ll look real cute with my face all done up, but the moment I step out, it’s already melting from my face.

- Going to sleep; there’s SO much more I could be doing right now!

- When my bangs desperately need a trim and is poking my eyes.

- Poor lighting, doesn’t matter if it is real life, just light it like you’re IN a film!! It’s so much more dramatic that way! (For real, come to my house, every corner is lit with some sort of a look/mood 😏)

- Loud noises; when people are yelling all the time, or something is loud, I get nervous when I can’t hear my own thoughts.

- People with bad attitude, a temper, or is just kind of mean in general. There is absolutely no excuse for you to be that way, and nothing productive comes out of it. Nuh-uh.

🎬 FUN FACTS

My parents hired a piano teacher when I was in elementary school, but because I didn’t enjoy her company (for some reason), I refused to absorb information. Little did I know, it would backfire me and would have absolutely no effect to her pay.

I’m that kid who always has 4 spare pencils and 5 erasers to lend out to my peers.

Will serenade to my cat every morning and night, so if you are ever my roommate, I apologize for my horrible singings.

Performed as a cave and pot in my high school production, and lemme tell ya, it is more difficult than it sounds.

Has no problem doing laundry in the morning, but the moment the sun falls, I will be too afraid to go down into my basement to do it. Some may say that it is an excuse for me to put laundry off for the next day, but I always tell my husband that there’s a “Babadook” in there. 👀

One time I stepped on a millipede, and I cried for 2 days because I felt really bad for it.

I’m actually VERY shy most of the times, so if you see me laughing a lot like a hyena, then it’s likely that it’s just me being awkward. OR I may just be having a good time, who knows.

I’m awful around kids, I am SO awkward and will stiff up like a rock (if you see me doing that, pls come safe me). One time this kid asked me why I laugh so much, so I simply just laughed some more while backing out of the room slowly. 🤦‍♀️ 

🎬 SOME FUN QUESTIONS!

What is something you wish you were gifted at doing?

I wish I could sing. My husband is a musician, and it looks like he’s having so much fun. There’s just something so freeing about it, as if it’s another language that takes time to become fluent in, but when you are, it’s so captivating and expressive. I don’t think I’m an awful singer, but is just too incredibly shy to sing in front of others. 

What is the first movie you remember seeing in theater?

It may had been Disney’s Dinosaur (2000), not sure. All I remember was that there were a bunch of dinosaurs on screen, may had even been 3D with those glasses.

At one point, a tiger jumped at the screen, and I started crying. My mom and brother wanted to finish the movie, so my dad had to sit outside with me, until it was over. It was chill tho, my dad was teaching me different dinosaur names. 👶 🦖 🦕 

What is the first thing you do when you get home?

Pants off, baby!! I don’t usually wear a bra, but if do, then I guess it’s bra’s off first. Then I instantly hop into my plaid boxer shorts hehee. 🤭 

What has been the hardest thing for you to face or learn?

That people go through different stages of their life at different paces, and that is totally okay. When I was younger, I would always overwork, and as a result, I don’t really have a lot of time for myself. I did that, mostly, because I wanted to get a head start at everything, especially at my career. Now that I am 23-24, and had just graduated from Class of 2019, I’ve been getting film gigs since I was a sophomore, and is now a full time freelancer. 

Yet, I was not satisfied, because I got to work with a 21 y/o in a position that was under her, and it made me feel momentarily incompetent; like I wasn’t doing well enough. But it will never be enough if that’s the mindset; I never considered that she skipped university and went straight into film, so circumstances were entirely different.

Meanwhile, there’s someone 10+ years older than me who is struggling to get the work I’d get, and that is okay too. What I should’ve done is feel happy for her, and use that to motivate myself to improve.  As long as I never give up, and continue to do my best with a good attitude, everything will be just fine.

If you could give your younger self any advice what would it be?

That it’s okay to take a break sometimes, live life a little, and cherish all the happiness, sadness, heartbreak, and struggles that you are going through right now. Every tear will make you stronger, and genuine every smile will eventually pull you through. 

Time goes by very quickly, and every stage in your life is a part of you, so make sure you remember how you get to where you are well.

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full?

Half full, just grateful that there’s any liquid in the glass at all, and is excited to acquire more with all the space I’ve got on top, ya know? 🤷‍♀️ 

What is the strangest thing you believed as a child?

That if you whistle at night, the ghosts will come find you. Or if you play hide and seek at night, then you’ve opened up some kind of portal that the ghosts will kidnap you away from this dimension forever.

Tbh, I think my grandma was just sick of me trying to learn how to whistle when I was in elementary school and of me running around the house at night, so she made these omen up lol.

What time do you usually get up in the morning?

Used to wake up at 13:00-14:00 all the time, but since I married an early bird, I’ve been up at 6:30-7:00 lately.

What time is your usual bed time?

Heeheee 1:00-2:00 in the morning, oops.

How has your birth order/characteristics of siblings affected you?

I have the loveliest older brother in the world, he’s 4 years older, and is very smart, diligent, athletic, and funny. Me being the only daughter, my parents are incredibly protective, so they’d always have my brother do everything for me. 

It was a relief when I was younger, but as I enter high school, it became a little frustrating; I felt like I was living under his shadows and can never be considered independent. They’d also spend a lot more time training with him cuz he’s a national competitive swimmer.

Because of that, I had a lot of time to myself, so I experimented with my own interests and grew in my own way. As I’ve grown, I can definitely say that it’s made me a lot more independent and introverted haha. I absolutely dislike depending on anyone (Will be my last resort), but it’s also nice to know that whenever either of us fall, we’ll always have each other’s back.

Unrelated but OMYGOD. My clown series reached 1k reads on wattpad.

Which isn't super awesome because its only due to the sheer quantity of chapters I have but I need to rave and spoil it cause I'm super excited about what I'm planning and no one i care to tell gives a shit so I'm dumping it into the void that is tumblr.

So. Im writing a book series called Caring For Your Clown. Its about this trans kid named Oliver and he is sort of an asshole.

Well not sort of, he is an asshole. But a RELATABLE asshole.

The story sort of drops you in 6 months after the mysterious and tragic (and traumatic) death of his mother Marie, who was a scientist alongside her husband and Oliver's step father Jon at a lab that specializes in physics mainly.

They were working on a machine with an unstable particle that caused a..tear so to speak, in the fabric of dimensional space and she got torn into tiny little bits. :3

But apparently before this occurred, Marie was in contact with an alien race called clowns 🤡 (really they are interdimensional traveling amoebas that take the shape of humanoid clowns lol)

One of which pops up in Oliver's life completely unexpectedly for no foreseeable reason and her name is Dindet and she is absolutely precious.

Basically its a saga and each book ranges in about 30k to 50k words. The first book centers around Oliver learning about this weird alien houseguest and also the immediate fallout of the death of his mom because surprise surprise! His biological dad who is a terrible abusive fucktard rolls back into his life with the intent to take custody of Oliver and that is no good!

The entire arch Oliver's goes through is literally the title of the series. Basically learning to be caring and compassionate while ALSO dealing with grief and interdimensional shenanigans.

One of the things I found really fun (it was unintentionally done but now I like it so its intentional now.) Is that each book roughly represents the 5 stages of grief.

As the first one is anger. Oliver is mostly passed the fuck off that this dumb alien clown sauntered into his life and thought it would be neat to CARE about him like he was a PERSON with FEELINGS. Irrationally angry, because he blames her for the loss of his mom (i mean so does his dad who goes through the stages of grief slightly slower than Oliver does) and uses her as a personal emotional punching bag until he realizes that SHE got his bio dad to concede his appeal for custody via literally stalking him and making him so paranoid that he was deemed an unfit parent >:3

All the while too, as the main focus is on the two characters of Oliver and Dindet, there is a background plot leading up to the second, third, and fourth (possibly up to 6 books) of the clown authorities looking for Dindet. And also the checkovs gun that is his neighbor.

The second book is mostly erring in the bargaining side of the coin for Oliver while Jon goes through his stage of anger. Oliver learns more about Dindet but doesn't quite trust her as she is clearly hiding information and KNOWS his mom. But she won't talk. Meanwhile, his neighbor working on a completely different project gets his hands on some clown matter and goes apeshit with it to build his energy machine.

We also learned more about the type of person Dindet is, which is naive and caring but also incredibly self destructive and reckless. By far a major people pleaser with huge self love issues. While Oliver is more of a "i don't give a shit what you think" though its more a facade he puts on to protect himself from rejection :/ he is far more comfortable in his own skin but external factors can make him freak out a little and he is terrible at talking to people.

It culminates when the project Jon solicited Dindet's assistance in is wreck by her own hands and Oliver's growth completely backtracks to the point that he finally manages to get our clown to leave (only for her to be clownknapped by his whole ass fucking neighbor to be used as the conduit to his energy machine)

And yeh, Ols almost immediately regrets his actions (though at first its more denial that she actually left) especially when he catches his neighbor using her as fuel for his machine to the point that all her fucking matter is completely burned away via electrical current! >:3

THEN Oliver gets to the depression arch >:3 (i haven't written this part yet so its up in the air atm)

Basically, with his mom dead and now the only person who could reasonably be considered his friend ALSO Basically dead, Ols falls into this really bad streak of just walking backward in his grief. Anger, denial, bargaining, the whole shebang. But THIS time the lab and the government AND the secret clown police are all in cahoots to cover up what happened at the lab and to do that they need to get rid of Ols and his dad to allow their plot to work. (Will be revealed later)

So throughout the first two books I've been alluding to the leader of the clowns via Dindet's ostensible paranoia and their name is Smile. They have underlings though and one is named Poppy. So the clowns get into the lab and convince Jon to send his son to a treatment facility for therapy under the thin veil that it will protect them from the repercussions of the machine. Oliver is not to upset about this though because he has been to therapy before from his past with his bio dad.

Except obviously the clowns don't want to actually help anyone. Their goal is to wear my boy down until he ready to die because- did I mention this was middle grade??

Anyways. This particular book I want to develop my potential romance between Douglass (Oliver's kid neighbor) and Ols and also deconstruct Oliver's personality via flashbacks that parallel the events in the story so we understand why he reacts the way he does to things and also i think it would be neat that the clowns technically succeed in their plan to draw out Dindet the wanted criminal by using the person she cares most about against her. By making him want to die!!

Then! For the next book, I'm planning on having more clown infiltration, more bonding between my children and romance between my boys because oooohhh boy am I gonna have fun tearing everyone apart when the real fucking deal Smile shows up and fucks shit up. Smile is my main villian and a veru fun and manipulative one at that. She uses Oliver to get to Dindet and eventually catches the both of them, revealing clowns to the entire world right before snatching them back to the home base the Cornucopia.

This is where we learn all the information we have been wanting and building up to about Dindet >:3

She is a criminal because she has Essentially tied a doomed universe to the Cornucopia in a never ending time loop because she is so heckin big that every time that universe is torn apart, she jumps back in time and DIES in order to recreate it. (She's the big bang yo)

That isn't the only reason though. Oliver comes to learn that his mom was FRIENDS with Smile. And Smile was the one who tore her apart in the machine scattering her subconscious in the literally timeless Cornucopia (time doesn't exist there so aging, death, anything like that is completely halted) and MARIE who has been half alive and omnipotent this whole fucking time has been trapped in the Cornucopia unable to see her family or child but fully able to see a know the infinitesimal inevitability of the destruction of his universe. So what does she do? She PULLS DINDET PUT OF THE ABYSS AND TELLS HER TO GO BE FRIENDS WITH HER KID TO KEEP THE TIME LOOP GOING.

And this has happened before. Like this book series is literally ONE (1) version of events that have been stacking up on top of eachother for millenia. The reason Dindet shows up in the first place is because she can partially see these past loops and the remnants of her love for Oliver keeps her coming back YO.

But while all this lovely information is being shared, Dindet is in clown jail and Oliver is treated as a pet to Smile. He tries to stage a break out and fails and what does Smile do? She turns him into a got damn monkey!

And uses him as literal fucking bait to a starving Dindet in order to justify her sentence (which is obviously death)

It almost works too, if it weren't for the fact that these two kids are BEST FRIENDS NOW and would legit die AND kill for eachother, Dindet pushes Oliver out of the Cornucopia (he is still a monkey boy btw) into his universe which inadvertently scatters him.

(A human person can enter the Cornucopia but if they leave, their molecular structure will destabilize in a slow and painful way until they literally are nothing left so that sucks)

This is where I want the next book to start tbh. Now back at home without his friend, as. A. Monkey. Oliver find that his entire home town is under lock down and strict control by the clowns who have now infiltrated the government and are putting plans forth to rebuild the SAME MACHINE his dad and Dindet built to bring about the destruction of the universe. (They want to do this because if they prevent Dindet from jumping back in time, they can end the time loop and get on with their lives)

So ols has to essemble a rag tag crew of Douglass and some other classmates and figure out that all the goop floating around belongs to Dindet (bruh. She is the size of the universe like. There is a lot of her to go around) and they can technically use it as gateways into other dimensions to gather an arsenal of GIANT BABY ANIMALS AND SQUIRREL BIRD CATS AND DRAWN TO LIFE ANYTHINGS so they can try to 1. Bring back our clown gal who is the key to fixing this and 2. Take on the now heavily fortified lab in order to get Olivers and Douglass's dads back.

All the while my boy is slowly dying >:3

Eventually, Oliver finds a way to get Dindet back but its at a cost :/ he tricks Smile into turning our clown organic to prevent her from being able to control any of her matter whatsoever and the cost of it is that Smile is VERY bad at making humans, so she basically traps Dindet in a catatonic meat sack that doesn't have half the organs it needs to function properly :/

To make her not be organic anymore they gotta uh..kill the tumor that is an organic half body (which yes, does have nerve endings) which eventually allows Dindet to be 100% clown again.

They break into the lab, but its basically too late. Reality is fractured and the multiverse is imploding in on itself and in the midst of all of this, Ols and Dindet are careening through the vacuum of an entirely empty space, dying of starvation and scattering and the only option left is to jump back in time to start the loop over again.

It is heartfelt and it is good and pure and the last moments they share together perfectly bring this loop together because in the VERY FIRST BOOK Oliver asks why Dindet came and she says "you asked me to."

And their last moments together he asks her to come back for him. Like I CANNOT yall!!

But that isn't the end. Yet.

The real end is after they die and the universe begins and a single hand pushes through the stars and pulls out a little orange bean. And it's Marie, pulling Dindet put of the Abyss this universe that is so intrinsically tied to the Cornucopia that it literally creates all the fucking clowns.

Its not supposed to be destroyed. And the reason eveeything falls into place so perfectly and things always go the same way is because ita already been seen and already been narrated. By Marie.

The WHOLE ASS SERIES IS IN THIRD PERSON OMNISCIENT BUT ITS ACTUALLY NOT. Its first person. Narrated by Marie.

Dindet knows Marie because she pulled her out of the Cornucopia. Clowns exist because Dindet was told by Oliver that she was and looked like a clown. The entire ass UNIVERSE exists because Oliver and Dindet are the fucking building blocks of life.

All of Olivers character actions and growth and eventual love (platonic) for Dindet shape their futures and all of it started because a mom was so concerned and guilty about leaving her kid in such a time of need that she would rather start the world over than see him suffer.

So..themes.

Throughout the series there are heavy HEAVY parallels between Dindet and Marie (partly because Dindet is a parrot and almost all her actions and reactions mimmick things that she has seen and the first person she met who wasn't out to kill her was Marie) but also because Dindet is the conduit through which Marie vicariously lives out the rest of Oliver's fleeting life with him.

There is even a point where Oliver genuinely questions whether or not Dindet actually IS his mom (she isn't obviously)

One of the themes I really love about this series is that compassion, unconditional love and care is deserving to even the most obstinant. Oliver isn't easy to love. He actively makes it very hard for anyone who could be a peer (even his own dad sometimes) to care about him. He constantly pushes people away to safeguard himself from potential harm and it takes three fucking books ROUGHLY 200,000 words to get this boy to understand what unconditional love can do.

How it can help with the grieving process, and help you become a more compassionate person toward others.

And also how your actions affect others!!

Like i said, Dindet is a parrot, she can read your mind (if she wanted to) but what she sees she incorporates into her own thoughts and as a reflection, Olivers harsh words and actions, even the most simple kind are recorded and even amplified. He is MEAN to Dindet. He makes fun of her often and gets angry with her and calls her stupid and she internalizes that immediately and it has an immediate affect on how she views herself. Oliver doesn't even think of this as something that happens until much later in the story! And gradually he grows past it and becomes more considerate and affirming toward Dindet and Douglass as a result.

And the way things matter. Oh. Every little detail matters in this story up to seemingly inconsequential continuity errors! Foreshadowing is everywhere from the first fucking sentence to the last because the things the characters do and say to eachother are simultaneously current and in the past all at once and no one knows which is which.

Someone got hurt? There are consequences, even unforseen ones. Dindet loses her hat. It is the most precious thing she owns and is a huge comfort item for her. Oliver asked where she got it? A friend gave it to her.

OLIVER MAKES HER A NEW HAT AFTER SHE LOSES IT. He is the FRIEND that gave it to her.

Almost everything in this story has parallels and consequences and twists and turns and outcomes that are wildly unpredictable (up until now because I've just spoiled the entire fucking plot but who cares!!)

Like...this is my baby. I care SO MUCH about this story and the characters in it that when I think about certain scenes I legitimately start crying.

I can't wait to publish the first book yall. I'm planning on publishing it either through a publisher or self publish, and maybe make a comic even? Idk. I just i really think people would like my dumb absurd story about clowns and I wish i could just spout about it 24/7...it breaks my heart that no one will listen.

Fox news Power Rankings: Brady's Bucs higher than Pats - NFL.com

Fox news

COVID-19 would possibly possibly well own humanity in hiding, but the Energy Rankings cower from nothing and no person.

We're relieve for the critical time in seven weeks, checking in on groups after the critical wave of free company. We'll traipse this relieve all any other time after the draft. Need more of an NFL fix for the interval of these unsure events? Test out the Spherical The NFL Podcast, hosted by yours the truth is, which is coming at you 5 days per week for the interval of this profoundly out of the ordinary time in human historical previous.

OK, relieve to my cave. Are trying now no longer to get too worked up regarding the keep your team sits on March 24. As fresh world events own made abundantly clear, life can trade in a whisk.

Be get and assign healthy, pals.

NOTE: Team slide below displays changes from the post-Significant Bowl LIV Energy Rankings.

Outdated imperfect: No. 1

The defending champions own been soundless in the critical wave of free company. Which is ... challenging. Kansas City slapped the franchise tag on Chris Jones when it couldn't get a prolonged-time frame deal completed with the standout defensive lineman. A vital defender used to be lost when Kendall Fuller returned to the Redskins. On the quite quite a bit of side of the ball, receiver Sammy Watkins is composed right here. The dilapidated wideout used to be idea to be a skill cap casualty, but he stays a Chiefs employee as of this writing. We'll gaze if it stays that manner.

Outdated imperfect: No. 2

Honest for general manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan for resisting temptation. Tom Brady has prolonged been linked to the team he rooted for as a boy, and NFL conditions aligned to the stage that Brady in a Niners uniform turned a very precise possibility. But sticking with Jimmy Garoppolo is the orderly prolonged-time frame transfer; it's miles that this humble Energy Ranker's conception that Jimmy G will get completely too great guff from the Football Cognoscenti. Procuring and selling away the out of the ordinary DeForest Buckner definitely stings, nonetheless it puts the defending NFC champions in space to enter subsequent month's draft with a pair of first-spherical picks. No longer a heinous articulate to be.

Outdated imperfect: No. 5

Packers followers had to wince after they saw megastar wideout DeAndre Hopkins get moved to the Cardinals for decrease than a first-spherical fetch. There had prolonged been rumblings about Hopkins and Bill O'Brien being in a now no longer-so-immense articulate earlier than the change. Did Packers GM Brian Gutekunst ever fetch up the cellular phone? Bewitch show cowl of this yet one other instance of why we need a GM App that connects all these guys. Correct imagine Hopkins and Davante Adams working routes for Aaron Rodgers! It ain't going down, and it appears to be like to be worship the important upgrades on the flexibility positions can own to sit down up for the draft. Unsolicited advice for Gutie: Call the Bengals and kick the tires on A.J. Green.

Outdated imperfect: No. 6

With a new deal for Ryan Tannehill and the franchise tag for Derrick Henry, the Titans will enter the 2020 campaign with the two gamers who guided them to the brink of an AFC title, alongside with a playoff conquest in Foxborough in January. (Rapid aside: Congrats to free agent Logan Ryan, who can continuously whine he intercepted Tom Brady's closing proceed as a Patriot and took it to the tip zone.) No longer your whole news used to be factual in the critical wave of free company, though: Stunning take care of Jack Conklin, a extinct prime-10 fetch who robotically blew open working lanes for Henry, is now in Cleveland on a rich free-agent deal. Coming off a monster 2019 workload and absent a key traipse blocker, it's gorgeous to surprise if a dip in manufacturing is coming for Henry.

Outdated imperfect: No. 7

In a few of the surprise twists of free company, Jadeveon Clowney stays on the open market at publishing. This is able to bode effectively for the Seahawks, who own a standing offer that will well discontinue up being basically the most efficient one Clowney receives. Groups that are traipse effectively keep of abode a trace on a player and follow it, resisting the temptation to overpay and restrict their alternate choices down the avenue. We'll gaze if GM John Schneider is rewarded for his prudence.

Outdated imperfect: No. 12

GM Howie Roseman made a giant splash with his change for cornerback Darius Abolish, a proven distinction-maker who addresses a giant keep of need in the Eagles' secondary and helps mitigate the loss of Malcolm Jenkins, who signed with the Saints. Roseman historical free company to land defensive take care of Javon Hargrave, a monster on the inner and a challenging complement to Fletcher Cox and Malik Jackson. The protection feels worship it's in a better articulate, but what regarding the quite quite a bit of side of the ball? Carson Wentz wants some explosive playmakers he can count on. Receiver Robby Anderson is composed obtainable and is colorful. Roseman also can select the draft to tackle a obvious need at that space.

Outdated imperfect: No. 16

All I must attain is discuss about Ben Roethlisberger's beard. Or now no longer it's challenging and mysterious and monstrous and strange and comforting ... all on the related time. It appears to be like to be worship Mammoth Ben has been in quarantine since closing March. The exit of Javon Hargrave to the Eagles hurts, but the Steelers acted rapidly to tackle the loss by buying and selling with the Ravens(!) for defensive lineman Chris Wormley. On offense, Roethlisberger will get a new crimson-zone weapon in tight discontinue Eric Ebron, who's one season eradicated from a 13-touchdown campaign with Andrew Good fortune and the Colts. Ebron is a fallacious player, but the extinct first-spherical fetch has a chance to position up numbers in Pittsburgh's two tight discontinue offense.

Outdated imperfect: No. 13

The Cowboys made the transfer they felt they'd to, biting down exhausting and making Amari Cooper a few of the very splendid-paid wide receivers in football. Cooper, Ezekiel Elliott and Dak Prescott would possibly possibly comprise basically the most efficient keep of abode of "triplets" in the NFL, but Dallas can own a lot of cash invested in honest three gamers (assuming the franchise-tagged Dak in the end will get that prolonged-time frame deal). To invent this work, Dallas can own to be orderly and effective in the 2nd and third wave of free company, then the draft. Used All-Authentic Gerald McCoy used to be a solid signing on the inner line of defense, but gamers out the door consist of cornerback Byron Jones, proceed rusher Robert Quinn, receiver Randall Cobb, tight discontinue Jason Witten and defensive take care of Maliek Collins. Oh, and Authentic Bowl center Travis Frederick honest retired. Jerrah and Co. own work to realize.

Outdated imperfect: No. 19

Tom Brady is the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Or now no longer it's miles the splendid free-agent transfer in the historical previous of the franchise, and it instantly makes the Bucs one of basically the most compelling groups in the NFL. It used to be the uncommon perfect transfer in free company: Brady will get a two-one year deal for now no longer extreme money (two years and $50 million, with $9 million in incentives) to raise his unmatched trip and management to town. It also frees the Bucs from the purgatory that comes with Jameis Winston as your starting quarterback. Tampa Bay tried to invent it work with the extinct No. 1 general fetch, nonetheless it honest never came about. Brady will enter Week 1 at 43 years extinct, but he is rarely the truth is been this motivated, and he'll own star gamers to throw the ball to. This would possibly possibly own to be enjoyable.

Outdated imperfect: No. 20

Peter King wrote this week that Tom Brady had ardour in signing with the Colts, so assign shut into consideration it vital that Indy never made a contract offer to the G.O.A.T. The team as a change invested its resources in Philip Rivers, giving the longtime Chargers star a one-one year, $25 million deal that instantly upgrades the quarterback space whereas giving Frank Reich and Chris Ballard wiggle room to devise for the prolonged traipse on the distance. Brian Hoyer signed with Original England over the weekend after being launched by the Colts, an indication that Jacoby Brissett will sprint relieve into his more pure space as a No. 2 man. The Colts own as factual a chance as anybody to whine the AFC South in 2020.

Outdated imperfect: No. 11

Procuring and selling a 26-one year-extinct star receiver coming off relieve-to-relieve 1,000-yard seasons is rarely the truth is easy, but the Vikings did what they'd to realize with Stefon Diggs. It appeared worship Diggs used to be never going to be gratified in Minnesota, and the resolution to elongate quarterback Kirk Cousins the truth is sealed Diggs' destiny in red. So that they flipped the playmaker to the Funds for four draft picks, alongside with a first-rounder. That's better than acceptable compensation for an out of the ordinary wideout who's composed presumably a hasten or two in the relieve of the gorgeous elites at his space. The receive-now Vikings own 12 draft picks subsequent month, alongside with two in the critical spherical at Nos. 22 and 25 general. A Diggs change and a cornerback (or three) are on the menu.

Outdated imperfect: No. 9

Or now no longer it's a change that will well proceed down as a few of the splendid heists ever: DeAndre Hopkins and a fourth-spherical fetch to the Cardinals for David Johnson, a 2nd-rounder and a fourth-rounder. Hopkins, arguably basically the most efficient wideout in the NFL, used to be despatched packing for 50 cents on the greenback in a seismic change that puts coach/GM Bill O'Brien instantly below the spotlight (and most likely on the sizzling seat) worship never earlier than. Hopkins historical social media to determine out to downplay reviews of a fractured relationship with his head coach, and O'Brien can fresh the change to his boss as a transfer that provides future cap reduction, imports a high quality player in Johnson and delivers welcome draft capital. But c'mon. On paper, the Texans obtained loads worse. You furthermore mght can splendid surprise what Deshaun Watson is thinking, especially now that he's in Cryptic Tweet Mode.

Outdated imperfect: No. 8

Or now no longer it's almost now no longer skill to imagine a scenario all over which Tom Brady is now no longer the quarterback of the Original England Patriots. And yet, right here ... we ... are. The G.O.A.T. now grazes in Tampa, and the Patriots did no longer invent a transfer to add a quarterback to their roster till this previous weekend, after they welcomed Brian Hoyer relieve for a third stint with the team. Is it doubtless Bill Belichick would possibly possibly enter camp with a quarterback room headlined by Jarrett Stidham, a 2019 fourth-spherical fetch with four occupation proceed makes an are attempting, and Hoyer, a occupation backup coming into his age-35 season? Seems now presumably no longer, but Original England so far has passed on the quite quite a bit of vital QBs on the open market. The Brady-Belichick divorce changes every thing: at 1 Patriot Position, in the AFC East and all around the overall NFL.

Outdated imperfect: No. 14

Commerce happens hasty in the NFL: The Rams own rapidly long gone from an group on the rise to a team in transition. Working relieve Todd Gurley, the extinct face of the franchise and the man who once appeared destined to open up Sofi Stadium because the constructing's greatest star, used to be launched and rapidly signed by the Falcons. With reference to half of the team's starting protection from 2019 can own to get changed. Groups are calling about receiver Brandin Cooks. There are composed constructing block pieces in articulate ( Jared Goff, Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey originate a rattling solid basis), but the Significant Bowl window has closed for the time being. Can Sean McVay and Les Snead re-open it?

Outdated imperfect: No. 15

Solid work by the Falcons in the critical week of the league one year. The team imported two Rams stars in working relieve Todd Gurley and proceed rusher Dante Fowler Jr., then changed tight discontinue Austin Hooper (off to Cleveland on a giant-money deal) by buying and selling for extinct Ravens first-spherical fetch Hayden Hurst, a younger player with legit upside. Fowler is an give a select to over Vic Beasley, who signed with the Titans, nonetheless it's Gurley who exists because the team's immense curiosity. The chronic knee subject can't be now no longer famend, but is it doubtless the Rams' regression alongside their offensive line used to be lost sight of as an reason in the relieve of Gurley's pedestrian play in 2019? We'll gather out in September. (Confidently.)

Outdated imperfect: No. 23

The Browns proceed to realize effectively this time of one year. Cleveland acted hasty because the negotiation window opened, touchdown tight discontinue Austin Hooper and pretty take care of Jack Conklin, the two most efficient gamers on the market at their respective positions. The Conklin transfer used to be especially major, because the Browns must attain every thing of their vitality to dapper up the pocket for Baker Mayfield in his pivotal third season. If Cleveland can land a legit left take care of with the 10th general fetch, this would possibly possibly well own turned a team weak point into a strength. One attention-grabbing show cowl: Case Keenum obtained $10 million in assured money to be Mayfield's backup. That's loads. Hmmmm ...

Outdated imperfect: No. 21

The Jets own drafted as poorly as anybody in the league over the closing decade, and too generally, the team has tried to invent up for that shortcoming with excessive-profile free-agent signings that hardly determine. GM Joe Douglas used to be brought in to trade how the team does industry, and we now own considered that by the critical wave of free company. Douglas passed on making a giant splash in prefer of a soundless rebuild of the offensive line. The Jets added three new starters (LT George Fant, C Connor McGovern, OG Greg Van Roten) on good deals, and would possibly possibly add a fourth new starter with the No. 11 fetch in the draft. Huge receiver Robby Anderson, in the period in-between, stays on the open market. Could per chance presumably Anderson discontinue up relieve with the Jets on a demonstrate-it deal? It can well even be a most efficient-case scenario for Original York.

Outdated imperfect: No. 17

The Bears did what all and sundry anticipated, bringing in a dilapidated name model to compete with Mitch Trubisky. That dilapidated is Gash Foles, the extinct Significant Bowl MVP who endured a nightmarish (but very profitable) one-season stint with the Jaguars. Trubisky will doubtless enter practicing camp because the presumed starter, but retaining off Foles would possibly be great more refined than preserving off Traipse Daniel used to be a one year prior to now. Attach aside it this kind: There is a very factual chance Foles ends up starting more video games subsequent one year than the extinct first-spherical fetch hypothetically sooner than him on the depth chart. The Robert Quinn signing used to be ... challenging. The transfer to raise in 33-one year-extinct Jimmy Graham, who did subsequent to nothing with Aaron Rodgers throwing him spirals, makes you surprise if GM Ryan Dawdle will ever determine the tight discontinue space.

Outdated imperfect: No. 26

If the Cardinals weren't working towards social distancing, absolutely there would own been a event in Glendale after GM Steve Keim landed wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. It used to be the uncommon perfect change, a transfer that supplied 2nd-one year QB Kyle Murray a legit No. 1 wide receiver with out mortgaging the prolonged traipse by surrendering top fee draft picks. Throw in the indisputable fact that Arizona managed to unload the redundant David Johnson and his bloated contract, and this would possibly possibly proceed down because the splendid change heist since Mike Ditka gave up his whole draft class for Ricky Williams. (That the truth is came about, kids.) The Cardinals improved their protection, as effectively, with the additions of linebacker Devon Kennard and defensive take care of Jordan Phillips. The Cardinals also can very effectively be a player in the NFC West, worship, gorgeous now.

Outdated imperfect: No. 24

You knew a spending spree used to be coming in Miami, and that is the reason precisely what came about. The Dolphins, armed with more cap apartment than any team in the league, handed out a bunch of huge money contracts in the critical week of the league one year to lock up cornerback Byron Jones, linebacker Kyle Van Noy, defensive discontinue Shaq Lawson and offensive take care of Ereck Vegetation on deals that all equaled on the least three years and $30 million. Jones is now the very splendid-paid cornerback in the NFL. Jordan Howard used to be brought aboard to again select the NFL's worst speeding assault in 2019. The subsequent half is the splendid, though: Can the Dolphins land their quarterback of the prolonged traipse in the draft? Within the event that they fetch gorgeous, they're a player in the wide-open AFC East. Really!

Outdated imperfect: No. 27

The Giants own a fresh open in an Eli-free world, and their work in free company so far signifies Mammoth Blue is now taking a more methodical manner to team constructing. GM Dave Gettleman made a few splashes, alongside with cornerback James Bradberry and heart linebacker Blake Martinez on mighty deals, and the resolution to franchise Leonard Williams came with a hefty trace trace ($16.1 million). However the whispers connecting the Giants to Jadeveon Clowney proved to be counterfeit, and the team did no longer invent a giant splurge to present a select to the offensive line that many predicted. Catch now no longer be shocked if Gettleman uses the Giants' first draft fetch (No. 4 general) to tackle the team's offensive line or proceed-traipse wants.

Outdated imperfect: No. 31

The Bengals the truth is spent some money in free company! Maintain been they sending a message to Joe Burrow that they're certainly a team enthralling and willing to compete? Potentially now no longer, nonetheless it's enjoyable to join dots. The Bengals historical the franchise tag to assign onto receiver A.J. Green, then lifted the NFL's worst protection with huge-money deals for defensive take care of D.J. Reader and cornerback Trae Waynes. All told, the Bengals spent $95 million on the two veterans. In step with ESPN Stats & Files learn, Cincy had now no longer committed better than $26 million to a single free agent since 2015. With Burrow ready in the wings, the Bengals would possibly be willing to rise. For precise.

Outdated imperfect: No. 30

Ron Rivera ended up importing the quarterback from Charlotte we all anticipated ... Kyle Allen. This is able to now no longer own been the splash transfer some anticipated in Washington, nonetheless it's miles colorful to present Dwayne Haskins one other one year to fabricate, and Allen is a solid backup kind who already knows new coordinator Scott Turner's offense. Top doubtless-case scenario right here is Allen helps Haskins absorb a new offense, and Haskins' sport elevates consequently. Kendall Fuller used to be a solid add to the secondary. On the downside, the Trent Williams stalemate is coming into into the substandard direction. The left take care of's agent launched an announcement on Tuesday that opened with the next plea: "The connection between the Redskins and Trent Williams has reached a level the keep it's in basically the most efficient ardour that the Redskins change or commence him."

Outdated imperfect: No. 28

The Jags are starting over. Cornerback A.J. Bouye, defensive lineman Calais Campbell and quarterback Gash Foles own been all moved in trades after closing one year's grim 6-10 perform. Dart rusher Yannick Ngakoue is a staunch tag-and-change candidate. Yes, a childhood slide is on in Jacksonville, and Gardner Minshew appears to be like to be worship he'll get the possibility to handbook the manner. A whole lot of vital dilapidated QB alternate choices stay on the market, but the Jaguars would possibly be wise to present Minshew a corpulent season to show cowl what he can attain. This also can very effectively be a developmental one year for the franchise; why put a 30-one thing QB below center? Jacksonville did hand LB Joe Schobert a hefty deal and signed dilapidated cornerback Darqueze Dennard, but right here's a team with its survey on the next day.

[kindofsharethat]

so last night people were sharing stories of how they became larries and i thought i’d make a big (emphasis on big) ol list of them because i found them really fun to read

I've been a 1D fan since 2013 and my sister and i always thought that l&h looked so good together but only the bromance and we're like "omg larries destroyed their friendship poor eleanor 1!1!1!", then in 2015 the "i'm gay pretty unfortunate isn't eleanor ?" happened and i was like WHAAT???? and i ended up searching more and more about larry (bc it was the only thing that came to my mind) and i found the videos and then i told my sister and then here we are.

I became a larrie because someone in my dash who rarely post about 1D posted the first louis/fred pic and tagged it babygate. So I went looking into the tag and found everything. I had doubt but then i saw the moment where H touch L arm and i was in! I actually became a fan of the music after. I've done everything in reverse with this band! But when i entered the fandom in feb2016 and i was hopping to see it all end like a month later! But hey, still here! And loving it mostly! End it!

it was 2011 and my friend told me she had found a really good song and the singers were so cute, she showed me wmyb video and i spent the whole day listening to it and then in the evening i wanted to find out more about these 5 guys. i started watching video diaries ans i was looking for the next one but i accidentally clicked "best larry moments" video aaand the rest is history

I became a larrie after aimh tweet hits 2m and everyone on all of my social media started freaking out even though I didn't follow any 1D blogs so I started search about them and now I'm here also at that time I was kinda homophobic 'cause I live in russia and grown up in middle eastern family and now I'm proud lesbian who knows a lot about LGBTQ+ history so thank you to my larents and 1D for making me gay lol 🌈💕

i was a fan since 2011 but didnt know about larry bc i was young and didnt have any social media but around 2013-2014 my friend showed me the "are you and louis dating" vid and i was like the mr krabs meme bc i just couldnt understand why larry would have to be covered up so i went home and watched "why elounor is fake" videos and my eyes were open and ever since that day ive been a larrie and i regret not knowing sooner but im here now !!

i saw the daddy daddy cool tweet and was like dude that's the wrong type of daddywtf? & I hadn't heard about a pregnancy? then a week later I had read the treatise and had a side blog and watched all the freddieismyqueen videos & was in way too deeeep lol. I've never been around when they weren't on the break even, I'm so confused about how I got here but now I can't escape 😝I had never even listened to their music before but then I also did that and was like damn they're so good?!

I just remembered going out once and being quite tipsy when DMD video came on so I pointed to Louis and Harry and said 'they're in love, but shh nobody can know' and one of my friends looked at me with a WTF?? expression on her face and said 'but I thought that was common knowledge'. Mind you, she still doesn't even know their names, let alone anything else. That was around the time bg was still a fresh wound and I'll never forget it bc it was so nice to hear it and also my hangover was a bitch.

I got interested in 1D right after their last concert, like right on Halloween. I became a Larrie that very same day too, right after i read Dan Wattpad's infamous "Harry and Louis hate each other". I saw articles floating around saying how they were enemies, reason for Zayn leaving...blah blah. I was sceptical, then i came across the famous OTRA hug, and i was like, no fucking way they hate each other, not with how they are hugging. I then delved into YT and discovered freddieismyqueen. Bless.

I joined july 2014 (2 months after they 've passed my country ouch) and was instantly hooked because this shit is like crack. Today I'm the darkest larrie that exists preaching the word for everyone who'll listen. I can WAIT for their CO because I have a party prepared? I literally have a wine since 2014 in my cellar that I'm only going to open the day they're free, I have nauthical theme stocked for the party. My friends just know that they have to come and that I'll be crying the whole month!!

weirdly enough i became a larry cos of that stupid channel 4 documentary id never heard of larry or gay shipping or whatever before that and i saw that and i was very mr krabs meme and i looked into it saw that it wasn't evil and gross like they were portraying it and never turned back

I joined the fandom in late 2012 and I wasn't a larrie but I wasn't an anti either i just hadn't looked into it but then i remember during the confirmation of bg on gma i felt bad for harry and i didnt really know why and I was surprised by my own reaction. Then with bg going on I started to realise that none of that could be real I did my research and I've been a larrie ever since :)

I joined the fandom in 2012, used to think Elounor was real but just because I never looked into it and I knew some people thought Larry was real at the time so I checked this insta page that debunked Elounor and I have no regrets 💙💚

When I become a 1D fan, in 2012, I liked elounor and I liked Eleanor unfortunately. I was not that into fandom things so I wasn't paying attention to details. But my whole view changed in 2014 when they came to South America for the WWAT and all those rumors in Argentina with the hotel room and Brazil that was an experience and I was like "ok something is happening here between them" and here I am, 4 years later and going strong as a larrie. I'm on the winning team 😌💅🏼

I became a larrie when my friend first introduced me to fanfiction. I read a larry one and was totally amazed by it. After that, I switched between het ones and larry ones, but always came back to larry. After that, I simply became obsessed with the pair, something that made me fall in love with the band and all of them. I watched the dairies and everything, and just saw how clear their infatuation was. Tumblr and a lot of other sites just simply proved the theory even more. No regrets ❤

i became a larrie late novemeber after a month of being in the 1d fandom. i watched freddieismyqueen videos and other proofs for hours everyday (especially over thanksgiving break)

I wasn't even a fan of 1D, but while I was looking for pictures of them to do a collage for a friend, I found one in which Louis and Harry were looking at each other and, damn, I can't explain what I felt, I just knew it. So, I was trying to figure out if I was the only one thinking there was something between this two, and it turned out I wasn't! I discovered tumblr, and I spent 3 days reading post, watching videos and proofs and...here I am, 3 years after, being the larriest larrie

I became a 1d fan when uan tour had just started and like. I watched all the damn youtube videos in about a week and I noticed that in the video diaries on the stairs they were so ~cozy, and they were so Extra™ on stage and hl weren't like that with the other boys. They just emanated the feelings I suppressed: Ultra Gay. And yeah. That's how it Began for me

I became a larrie when I watched the behind the scenes of wmyb and Louis was saying "I've gotta say it" and Harry was all over him and hid his face in Louis' shoulder and said "no!"

Same like that previous anon i hadnt even considered two guys being more than friends bc of where i grew up. But just watching proof videos of them for a while i kind of realized how in love they were. Thats when i started thinking about how different and colorful the world actually is compared to what I've learned from the people i grew up around

I became a larrie when my friend and I would watch their video diaries together, and I would see the way h&l acted with each other. I mentioned it to my friend and she was like yeah, Larry, and she showed me one YouTube video so I spent weeks watching every single one I could find, all these years later and I've come to accept theres no way to crawl out of this 😂

are we sharing larrie stories? my friend became a fan early 2012 (and a larrie) and was adamant on making me on too, and I finally gave in summer 2013. I rmr the day after TCAs that year, niall tried to do a twitcam and idr how but some article got written abt the twitcam that included a link to those 'you just have to pay attention' videos. I marathoned them all, and it was that arm moment that zayn failed to hide that #sealed it. though my friend gave me the skinny on haylor back in 2012~

i was like a super casual fan since their first album. my friend introduced them to me cuz she was crushing on zayn. i just knew their music but not actually them. i became a larrie during weedgate. weird timing, i know. i saw it on the news and got curious about what was going on. saw the video then got to know about the boys individually through past vids. i started from the very start from the xf vid diaries. those two, not subtle AT ALL. and well, the rest was history.

i was in entirely different fandom back in 2014, but one of my follower turns into a liam stan and starts to post about 1d and there was a post about how harry and louis can't touch each other and i thought that was really weird weren't they bandmates?? then i started digging around and stumble into a treatise blog. here i am now hahaha

I got into this fandom because of my best friend. She showed me week 4 diary video... and I was like are those two in a relationship?? I pointed at louis and harry and she said no why? And I was like I don't know they seem cozy together and I pointed out that harry was staring at louis lips... she didn't believe me first but now she is a larrie😂 So basically I got into this fandom knowing larry is real

I became a fan of the boys 4 years ago. I read about Larry and that fans believed they were together so I went on YouTube and saw some videos and read some stories (I think it was here on tumblr??) and I immediately believed they were together. There wasn't a particular moment for me, it was a lot of things. Probably, above all, the way they looked at each other. They never looked at someone else so fondly. And 4 years later I keep saying the same thing 💖

for me, i always thought louis was gay from way back in 2011 but i didn't really think of harry's sexuality cause i wasn't like a stan i was just a casual fan [which is why it confuses me when people say that if larry isn't real, louis is straight and horrible, no...he still gay as hell babe]. anyway i became a larrie cause i used to really follow celeb gossip and when the news dropped, gossip sites/tabloids kept mentioning harry and larries everywhere so i decided to investigate and...here i am

October 2, 2017

From the Pepsi Center in Denver, CO

Your hosts are Tom Phillips, Corey Graves, and Booker T

The show starts off with the roster on the ramp for a moment of silence honoring the victims and families of those involved in the Las Vegas shootings.

We get a video package from last week where The Miz and Roman Reigns wrestled and Reigns ended up getting laid out by Miz & The Miztourage after winning the match. They focused on Miz & The Miztourage mocking The Shield fist bump at the end.

Seth Rollins vs. Braun Strowman

Rollins tries to use his speed to his advantage but gets run over. Rollins slips out of a powerslam attempt then slaps Strowman and gets chased around the ring. Rollins stomps Strowman as he tried to enter but Strowman is able to pancake Rollins then whips Rollins into the corner. Strowman continues to overpower Rollins then applies a chinlock. Rollins breaks out with a jawbreaker then low-bridges Strowman, who spills outside. Rollins tries for a tope but gets cut off with an uppercut as we head to break. The match returns with Strowman eating boot off of a charge. Strowman then catches Rollins coming off the top rope and hits a fallaway slam as Rollins ends up rolling outside. Strowman heads out and whips Rollins into the post. Rollins avoids a second charge as Strowman hits the post then flies out with a tope. Rollins hits a second tope as Strowman is now off of his feet. Back inside, Rollins hits a pair of springboard clotheslines that stagger Strowman then hits a blockbuster for just a one count. Rollins hits a few kicks but Strowman catches him with a short-arm clothesline before the running powerslam gets him the win (10:26) **1/2. After the match, Strowman hits another powerslam then sets up for it again but Dean Ambrose runs out. Strowman heads outside and beats Ambrose down but back inside, Ambrose fires away until getting caught with a chokeslam. Strowman hits a second chokeslam then hits him with a running powerslam. Cesaro & Sheamus now come out and inflict more punishment on the Tag champs.

Thoughts: Solid match. I thought Strowman struggled at points but they stuck to a basic formula and the crowd was digging this.

Highlights from last week’s verbal altercation between Alexa Bliss and Mickie James. After that, Mickie is walking backstage and sees Alicia Fox, who was apparently laughing over what Alexa said last week. Emma is also seen laughing and tells Mickie that at her age she still has a secret admirer and she opens her dressing room door to see a box of depends. Mickie flips out and tosses the box then sees both Emma & Alicia laughing. Mickie then bangs on Alexa’s locker room door but Nia Jax answers, with Alexa hiding behind. Nia tells Mickie Alexa is not available then Alexa tricks Mickie into faacing Nia tonight. I really enjoyed the segment last week between Alexa and Mickie but this was terrible. Too overproduced and we now see that Nia & Alexa are back to being friendly again for reasons that were not explained.

Bray Wyatt is shown in a rocking chair, repeating “she never lied to me.” After it airs, Corey says it appears that Bray is unraveling.

Elias is now in the ring. He is not happy about having to face Titus O’Neill tonight and yells at the crowd before singing his song. Elias says the people in Denver are the worst in the country until Titus interrupts.

Elias vs. Titus O’Neill w/ Apollo Crews

Titus shoves down Apollo has Booker wants to know how Titus’ time off from the ring will effect him tonight. Elias now works a side headlock until Titus breaks that up with a back suplex. Titus then tosses Elias into the corner and chops away. He hits a slam then an avalanche as Elias rolls outside. The ref backs Titus away then Elias shoves Apollo, who gets in his face. Elias gets pulled up to the apron by his hair but ends up stunning Titus before heading inside to hit the Drift Away for the win (3:27) 1/4*.

Thoughts: Bad match as it appears this Elias vs. Titus Brand stuff will continue. No idea what it will lead to though.

Another Asuka vignette airs, hyping her debut at the TLC PPV.

Nia Jax vs. Mickie James

Alexa comes out to the ring and a distracted Mickie gets run over by Nia. Alexa smiles as Nia overpowers Mickie then chokes her out with the ropes. Nia stays in control as she has Mickie in a surfboard but Mickie is able to escape. Nia cuts off a brief comeback then dumps Mickie outside as we head to break. The match returns with Mickie hitting Nia with a jawbreaker. Nia once again runs over Mickie and starts toying with her until Mickie fights back. Nia then drives Mickie into the mat and covers for a two count in a really ugly spot. Nia locks on a cobra clutch then switches to a bearhug. Mickie escapes and lands more strikes then takes her down to one knee with a low dropkick. Nia drives Mickie into the corner then places her up top and tries to chokeslam her off but Mickie turns that into a tornado DDT. Mickie then goes for the cover but Alexa runs and breaks up the cover for the DQ (9:42) DUD. Alexa tosses Mickie outside then checks on Nia, who is still out on the mat. Alexa heads out but Mickie knocks her down then tells Nia that is her friend and that she is going for title reign #7.

Thoughts: This was awful in many ways. First, the work was extremely sloppy and this match unraveled towards the end. Plus, they are trying to build up Mickie as a title contender and she barely got in any offense then tried to sell use that this tornado DDT was going to put Nia away if Alexa did not make the save. At the end, this match did not get anyone over.

Clips from last week with Enzo Amore crapping all over the rest of the Cruiserweight Division until getting destroyed by Neville. And we saw what happened RAW went off of the air when Braun Strowman ran out to beat on Neville and the rest of the Cruiserweights taking turns as they beat down Enzo. They also focused on Enzo’s “no contact clause” that said anyone who attacked him forfeited their right to a future title shot.

Renee Young is backstage with Enzo. She asks him about last week and how it was like a mutiny. Enzo looks upset and is speechless. We even see a tear come out of his eye as Renee thanks him before the segment ends.

Carlos Santana gets a package for “Hispanic Heritage Month.”

Clips from the end of the Nia/Mickie match are shown. Mickie is then interviewed backstage by Charly Caruso, sporting an entirely different look. Mickie has aspirations to become the RAW Women’s Champion then GM Kurt Angle approaches and gives Mickie a title match at TLC based off her performance tonight and her career prestige. Mickie is elated and does Angle’s “its true, its damn true” catchphrase before leaving.

We are shown a segment from Facebook Live where Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson call Jason Jordan a “nerd.” Matt Hardy was next to Jordan and challenged Gallows & Anderson to a match tonight.

Matt Hardy & Jason Jordan vs. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson

Anderson beats on Hardy to start. Gallows tags in but Hardy fights back and tags out. Jordan rams Gallows into the corner then hits a clothesline. The match breaks down as Hardy & Jordan clean house then we head to break. The action returns with Gallows & Anderson beating on Hardy. Anderson misses an attack in the corner then Jordan tags in and runs wild. Anderson makes a blind tag as Gallows comes in to kick Jordan in the face. Gallows drops a few elbows for a two count. Leg drop gets two. Anderson is back in the match and stomps away before working the arm. Jordan floats over on a suplex and hits one of his own as both men are down. Jordan crawls over and makes the tag as Matt fires away on Gallows. A mild “delete” chant breaks out as Hardy is taking care of both men. He hits Gallows with a tornado DDT then drops an elbow off of the middle rope for a two count as Anderson made the save. Jordan takes Anderson off of the apron with a dropkick but gets whipped into the barricade then Anderson grabs Hardy’s leg. Anderson then rolls back inside after Gallows decks Hardy and they hit the Magic Killer for the win (11:03) **3/4.

Thoughts: I liked the match and the crowd responds much better to Jordan when he teams with a Hardy boy. I expect a rematch and it appears Jordan & Hardy will continue to team while Jeff is recuperating from surgery.

Charly is backstage with Roman Reigns. She asks him about what happened earlier to his former Shield brothers. Reigns says he is not worried as they are “big boys” and likely coming up with a strategy now as he will be focusing on Miz. Reigns is asked about his strategy tonight against the Miz. He talks about not coming up with difficult strategies but plans on leaving Denver with the Intercontinental Championship. This interview was short and to the point.

Dana Warrior is in the ring with the RAW Women’s roster to honor three breast cancer survivors.

The Miz’s music hits. We then see Miz & The Miztourage in the crowd as they use The Shield’s old entrance as Corey tells us that the Shield is no more. Reigns then makes his entrance and before the match starts, Reigns runs out and beats the crap out of The Miztourage. He grabs a chair and chases them through the crowd with a chair and beats them with that too. Reigns then stares down Miz from the stage and heads down as we go to commercial.

WWE Intercontinental Title Match: The Miz (c) w/ The Miztourage vs. Roman Reigns

Miz charges after Reigns but gets punched out. Miz then keeps rolling outside to avoid Reigns and eventually catches him with a cheap shot. He then whips Reigns into the steps and rolls inside. Reigns barely beats the ten count but Miz plants him with a DDT for a two count. He works a chinlock then cuts Reigns off when he escaped. We head to break then return as Miz remains in control. Miz then uses the It Kicks but Reigns catches his leg and turns that into a sit-out powerbomb for a two count. Miz comes back with the Skull Crushing Finale as the crowd bought that as the finish. Miz slowly gets up and charges but runs into a Superman Punch as Reigns covers for two. Reigns then sets up for the spear but gets pulled outside by Cesaro & Sheamus for the DQ (11:55) ***. After the match, Reigns tries to fight back but is beat down by all three men. Cesaro hits Reigns with the Neutralizer then Sheamus hits the Brogue Kick and Miz the Skull Crushing Finale as the crowd chants for the Shield. Miz shakes hands with Cesaro & Sheamus and the three men are about to leave but realize the crowd wants the Shield. The crowd chants louder as the three mock the Shield’s signature spots before hitting Reigns with the triple powerbomb.

Thoughts: Fun match and the crowd was buying all of the nearfalls. This had tons of heat and the crowd went nuts for a potential Shield reformation. I liked how Reigns laid out The Miztourage and that Cesaro & Sheamus more or less took their place at the end in laying out Reigns. With the setup for The Shield’s return, Cesaro & Sheamus are a lot more credible than the Miztourage.

Finn Balor heads out to the ring. He tells Denver that they are “Balor Club” He prefers to come out and fight rather than too talk but Bray likes to play mindgames. He does not believe Bray to be anything else but a coward and says that he lost to “The Demon” at SummerSlam and “The Man” at No Mercy and can use any excuse he wants but the truth is he’s afraid and cannot beat him. Balor invites Bray to come out and not to sing it but rather “bring it.” We then see Bray in the rocking chair repeating “she never lied to me” then stops and tells Balor to show in his true face. Bray’s then tells Balor that Sister Abigail wants to meet him and his face morphs into what I assume is supposed to be Sister Abigail as we hear a female laughing. This is a segment that makes you embarrassed to watch wrestling. Also, this feud has no reason to continue and if anyone needs to change brands, it’s Balor because there is no one for him to feud with on RAW.

Sasha Banks & Bayley vs. Emma & Alicia Fox

Bayley gave her jacket to a young girl on her way to the ring. Emma, via insert promo, told us she did not trend on Twitter last week due to Nia and found herself a new partner. Emma and Sasha trade drop toeholds to start. Bayley tags and tries playing to the crowd, who do not react whatsoever, then starts beating on Emma. Bayley gets trapped in the corner then Fox tags in and dumps her outside after a dropkick. We head to break then return with Sasha beating on Emma. Fox tags in and has a shoving match with Sasha that leads to some brawling. Sasha takes control and gets two with a meteora. Fox fights back and tags out as Emma gets a nearfall with a butterfly suplex. Sasha’s mouth is all busted open then Fox tags in to hit a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker for a two count. Fox & Emma neutralize Sasha in the corner. Fox prevents a tag and drags Sasha back into the corner but gets shoved into Emma then Sasha tags out. Bayley runs wild on Fox until she gets hit with a jawbreaker. Fox goes for the tag but Emma leaves then Bayley hits the Bayley-to-Belly for the win (12:56) *.

Thoughts: They gave them time here but this was slow and plodding. The crowd was dead for this and Bayley continues to get less than favorable reactions. One thing to note was Sasha & Bayley really amping up their friendship before the match by jumping around and sharing each other’s spots which usually telegraphs that a turn is about to take place. At this point, if Sasha turned on Bayley she still might get the cheers in that feud.

Next week, Cesaro & Sheamus are guests on “Miz TV.”

Enzo Amore comes out to the ring as he addresses the Cruiserweight Division. He tells us he’s feeling great then tells the Division they can all go to hell and any “hater” that agrees with them can go to hell too. Enzo says he can lend you his certified GPS to get there, the same one he used to put 205 Live on the map. He also brags about the Cruiserweighht Division main-eventing RAW two weeks in a row and said people called it the “Snoozerweight” Division until he appeared. Enzo then leads the crowd in a “you deserve it” chant and how he has deserved all of the money he gets and is a ratings draw. He goes on to talk about being a major draw and then his “no contact” clause for tonight where anyone who touches him will get fired. Enzo says he no longer has any opponents and brags about beating Enzo with a crutch last week on 205 Live but Neville’s music hits with the rest of the Division behind him. They surround the ring as Enzo taunts them all about being in the unemployment line. Enzo is in the ring with the rest of the division on the apron as he individually taunts them, most of it was funny to be honest, but Kurt Angle comes out to the ring. He says that the cruiserweights who touched him last week and are out here tonight cannot touch him. However, the newest member of the Cruiserweight Division can and out comes Kalisto as he takes out Enzo.

If you are going to do this storyline to reveal a new member of the Division, then you do it for a debuting talent and not a guy who has been floundering for the past 18 months. A poor reveal and a Kalisto vs. Enzo feud is not going to reinvigorate a struggling division. Kalisto’s new look was not for the best either. On the plus side, at least they are trying to do something with this division but unfortunately its not going to be focused on the in-ring product and I do not think it will help a niche show on the Network. 

Reigns is in the locker room all banged up. Ambrose approaches then soon after that Rollins joins. They all stare at each other then Ambrose and Rollins leave with Reigns looking up as the show goes off the air.

Final Thoughts: One of the weakest episodes of RAW in 2017. Besides the possibility of a Shield reunion this show has nothing else to look forward to with poor feuds and babyfaces the fans do not care about. The opening match and Miz vs. Reigns was good but too many of these storylines just flat out suck. The creative team was to blame for a lot of this show.

Water Shooter Toys

Consider creating particular game rules such as these ones:

1. No entering the house.

2. No shooting at the face, particularly the eyes.

3. And no reloading of water other than from the faucet.

Nerf Water Guns may appear most inappropriate for winter. But purchasing them now while enormous vacation discounts are available is quite practical indeed. The upcoming summer will surely be an enjoyable and exciting one with these child-friendly toys.

Most water gun fights tend to happen spur of the moment and there is not a great deal of business (which will be good of course!) As we begin summertime though, with a great deal of potential water gun battles on the horizon, it is sometimes a good idea to be aware of some tactics that may cause you to be dominant in battle. These strategies Can be particularly valuable for all those well organized water gun fights with lots of your friends.

We'll start with some thing the military predicts Total Operational and Situational Awareness (TOSA). That means that you should be aware of where you are and what your situation is. What water guns, balloons, hoses do you have available to you? Who's in your side? Who are you enemies? Exactly how many water guns bulk wiki of them are there? What weapons do they have? Ok, this may seem fairly obvious, but you may be amazed how many water gun bats lose their awareness once a battle begins. You also will need to know where your water source isalso this will become even more important as we study some basic maneuvers.

The Ambush

Ambushing means attacking your opponents from a hidden place when they're passing. Bushes and trees were produced for hiding. Houses, sheds, or other constructions also work great. To stage a good ambush requires some preparation. You have to expect where your opponents will likely be traveling. Where do you think they will come looking for you? Will they're going to their own water source to reload (the water hose, or back inside to the kitchen, etc.)? Keeping these things in mind can help you stage an effective ambush!

The Charge

When you charge, then you throw everything in your enemy at one time. The notion is that you just overwhelm them all at once so they do not need to react and defend themselves. For a good charge, you wish to make certain everyone on your team is prepared and their water guns are completely full. Load up a couple of water balloons too, water balloons are a great way to shock the enemy. Charges work best when you also have the element of surprise.

Envelopment

www.watershootertoys.com

The envelopment is a timeless technique that will be quite powerful. Split your team up and attack your enemy in the exact same time from different directions. This divides their attention and they have injections coming at them from a lot of different directions. As with the majority of these techniques, the envelopment works best when you start a surprise assault.

Now that the weather's becoming warmer people are heading outside for the leisure activities. And what better way to have fun in the sun than to shoot your family and friends with water.

The fantastic thing about water gun games is that they can be enjoyed by the entire family.

I'll say right now the more powerful the water pistol, the better. Those weak and flimsy things that they used to sell from the 80's are old hat. Now we have Super Soakers and water rifles and even guns that can shoot water pellets.

Water Gun Freeze Tag

Yes, this one's a tiny innocuous. There is no chance of injury and water shooters bulk everybody can have fun. And there's plenty of scope for cheating.

The rules are easy

Blindfolded Water Gun Mayhem

This one may be a little risky, so be very careful. Ensure that there is at least one person with unimpaired vision gift and do not play near a swimming pool. Again, very easy rules, you might have even figured out by reading the title.

The third and final game I will mention might be difficult to arrange on your own, it is named StreetWars.

Played by adults that have nothing better to do and visibly need more attention than they are getting, it's a real-life assassination tournament, however with Supersoakers. You are given the name, address and picture of your victim and you must monitor him/her down and shoot him/her with your water gun. You become out the contractor to find that person's potential victim.

In a universe controlled by pump action water guns, it's refreshing to see a battery operated Super Soaker, particularly one who looks like a MAC-10! The New Super Soaker Thunderstorm has a motor-based pump which allows you to simply pull on the trigger to blast out the water.

The Super Soaker Thunderstorm is powered with four AA batteries. This might be thought of as a downside for parents that are tired of constantly replacing batteries, however, also the advantage of having a happy kid may be well worth it. Since there's not any pumping, the Thunderstorm can be also a good water gun for younger kids.

Such as the Super Soaker Tornado Strike, the Thunderstorm employs the same water clip system and also the same clips may be used in both water firearms. The Water clips hold about ten ounces of water. This usually means that clips will need to be refilled fairly often during extreme water struggles. A handy water gun suppliers release button, nevertheless, makes swapping water clips only take a couple of seconds. The Thunderstorm is sold using just one water clip however extra clips are offered for about $4 per month. Extra water clips can be fastened securely using a belt clip. They also fit well into cargo pants pockets.

Summer is on our doorstep along with waves of sunlight and warm weather wash over the area. Those familiar sounds of kids playing outdoors come through the window, but where are your kids? water guns wholesale Are they in their rooms or at the living space, frozen in front of a glowing rectangle? It's time to rouse them out of this trance and challenge them into your water gun fight!

Most of us know that in general, children tend to be more sedentary and overweight nowadays. Our first woman has recognized this and led a campaign to boost our youth's diets and increase their activity levels. Among the greatest ways that you could encourage your kids to be more active is to be energetic along with them. Challenge them to a water gun battle and encourage the neighbor kids. Should you participate along with them, I bet they'll be enthusiastic about placing that game controller down.

Along with the physical benefits, there are different advantages to tasks like having water gun battles. Having water gun fights can help build confidence and leadership abilities if they are well arranged. Split up into teams and have your kids take turns playing platoon leader, giving orders and motivating troops. This is an advantage they don't get from watching television or playing video games.

Having large scale water battles such as this also gives your children practice developing strategies and implementing them. They can practice timing and planning fees, using their sources of water wisely, doing flanking maneuvers, using decoys, and setting wholesale water guns blog up ambushes from behind trees and sheds. Needless to say, as these struggles unfold, things have a tendency not to go as planned and there is lots of improvising. Learning how to react and make changes to the fly is also excellent practice too!

As the needs arise, our law enforcement officers frequently Have to find new methods of practicing situations of various types. Sometimes, a school setting will likely be needed to practice rescuing students in situations such as the Columbine massacres. So as to train efficiently, many SWAT and special ops teams have been water toy supplier training with paintball guns and water balls. It would be impossible to take paintballs into a college to be able to practice life saving techniques. Waterballs, on the flip side, evaporate and leave much less mess. In addition they are encased using a mild plastic instead of the gel casings which paintballs come in.

The plastic casings can just be swept up and thrown in the garbage or recycle bin. This also enables our officers to wear their uniforms without damaging them. Other scenarios that would fall in this area of need could be scenarios where government buildings were involved, banks, city offices and company offices.

Once again, we find technology meeting the growing demands that have our ever evolving universe. With realistic firearms and water balls, the law enforcement officers may practice in settings so realistic (even down to the clothing that they are wearing) which it can not only save their own lives, but also the lives of those they are functioning. It is encouraging to see change take place, and realize that these kinds of technologies aren't just being appreciated at fun and games, but in life-saving situations also. Perhaps the day will come, when lead bullets won't also be needed. Could not it be good if the moment were here if the worst thing that our law enforcements people would endure would be a water fight on a hot, summer day? Perhaps the day will come when some kind of paralyzing agent can be set in the water balls and become another weapon of choice. Could that not be good?

The arguments on weapon control rage on around us, with good arguments on both sides. However, has anyone but me noticed that only the great guys are debating the situation? You never observe a criminal, or a gang member enter into any of these arguments. The good guys are contending with the great guys while the bad guys go on killing and shooting. How stupid is that? Maybe the new technologies that make paintball guns and the different types of projectiles that are available to utilize in them will likely be the answer to the arguments. The "killing" is the part of the firearms which the great guys opposing guns are angry about. Perhaps this new technology can inhibit rather than kill. This is not, necessarily, my personal preference, but it may be the reply to the debate.

The newest 2011 line of Super Soakers covers a broad spectrum of blasters when it comes to size and soaking power. The Super Soaker Point Break is the lightest and most compact of their water guns in this new line and could make a great addition to your arsenal.

Appearance

The Point Break has a fairly boxy style, giving it a flare gun-like appearance but at precisely the exact same time makes it seem futuristic. It has a well-shaped grip, like a Colt 45, which gives it a cozy feel. Both the handle grip and the slide grip are made well and are easy to hold onto, also in the midst of a water fight whenever you're fully soaked and your fingers are wet. This is a huge deal since the most powerful water gun on earth will not do you much good if you can not hang onto it!
