HIHIHIHIHI

I forgot to post stream here, but here! I brought you a treat, so you have to forgive me (it's two half baked versions of an about sprite for my twitch panel)

My tablet died mid stream, twice. So we didn't finish them. But I've got two versions now, plus the new stream overlay, chat overlay, and waiting screen flairs to finish, the new schedule format, and my new body design... (Why can't I leave well enough alone?)

If the compression makes them look bad it's okay, they're just WIPS rn.

They'll probably both see some use no matter what, (I'll probably use the one that doesn't get picked in the World Seed PDF) but which should I finish first for the twitch panel?

Mettaton, what's your favorite food?

"If you're looking for recommendations, darling, I'm afraid ghost food isn't edible for corporeal folk like your lovely self."

"However, I must insist that you try the MTT-Brand Glamburger! It's truly the most luxurious and fabulous food you could ever set your taste buds upon! Plus, it's one-hundred percent accurate to the food eaten on the Surface."

"...That's what I've heard people say about it, anyway. I can't eat it myself, of course."

"It isn't available right now, I'm sorry to say, but I have it on good authority that it'll make a grand return in the future~!"

And maybe you'll be like "but if you don't trust businesses, how can you trust welfare?"

I fucking don't. My mom trying to get on food stamps fucked me up because a lady I never met without my permission got my SSN from my mom and started editing my files. My heart still races to this very second whenever I think about it, it kinda messed me up bad and I'll never ever ever see any kind of recourse

And I'm terrified that I'm gonna lose my medicaid just cause I inherited some money from my grandpa

And I've never even applied for disability cause it kinda doesn't matter finding out if I'd qualify or not cause of my depression, when the rules are so restrictive I don't know if I've even be allowed to keep my house

I do not fucking trust these things on a personal level. I feel like out of a lot of people I have the most to fear from them cause I'm on the edge of having things work, and that gets you punished

...but I need medicaid in order to have insurance (and when you strip out the finance side of medicaid, I love medicaid... they're honestly incredible insurance... I just... I just... dental is like 90% of why medicaid is so important to me, ever since I found out this state pays for it I've actually been able to do cleanings which is important to me cause I can't always get myself to brush)

And I think things like disability and food stamps are pretty damn important on a personal level, and honestly are also good for the economy cause they get people spending... it's practically a free cash infusion into the economy, cause these are people who need to buy stuff

There's just so much important stuff welfare does that it's worth dealing with government

No, what I want is more accountability so if someone gets my SSN from a 3rd party like my mom they're held to HIPPA styles standards where that's not ok to access my files without my permission (She changed my fucking address and tried to get medicaid to investigate me for fraud! Never even met me)

Like have some accountability there and in every situation

Secondly I want less punitive focused rules. I'd frankly prefer bezos get on disability than smack down some poor sod cause they got $2000 in the bank or cause their friend lets them live with them for free

If there's gonna be a cut off on these programs, it needs to be a solid step above the poverty line, cause... by definition I assume poverty line denotes kinda the minimum expected income people can reasonably live off of, and if you take away benefits people are gonna lose a chunk of money to covering that stuff themself, so you need a buffer before you kick people off

I don't fucking trust the government for a second, I've actively been fucked by them and on a personal level I avoid everything but medicaid and only that cause everything but the money is pleasant to deal with and I kinda need it (honestly if I was rich I'm not even kidding that I'd rather give medicaid like $400 a month than some insurance company, I sincerely like them as insurance)

But I'd trust them a lot more if they were less punitive, less out to hunt me down and gut me cause someone handed me a fiver or cause I started to get on my feet, and if government employees had concrete rules they had to follow that were actually transparent and enforced

Like 90% of my problems with welfare go away if they're held accountable and there's less "catch the welfare cheats" mentality going around

I don't trust the government in the slightest, but sadly there some jobs it kinda has to do, so I'd just rather force it to be an open book where the public can keep an eye on it and if they step out of line there's consequences (sort of like I don't trust most mega corps but happen to sometimes need stuff from them... did you know literally every cell service provider has been illegally selling shit like your location data to random people like bounty hunters, and the FCC just slapped them with a fine that's 0.02% of their yearly incomes and debated even doing that? I even can offer a source on that)

...I don't trust much of any authority cause they constantly fail me and kinda screw me. Don't trust doctors either, but I still gotta go to them, you know? ...they're just... they're real bad at listening... so many systems need systemic change

(You know who I really don't trust is the cops. I could point to so many examples. My uncle doesn't trust cops either, and he's an ex Fire and SWAT paramedic, he worked with them and we still got into a long conversation where he basically tore into them far better than I can)

(I don't trust authority that's not accountable)

im getting sad :( pretty fishies are winning and i get it they are pretty but the weirdos are better!!!this is freaky fish showdown and the critters of deep sea are so fucked up and thats so cool. stop with this beauty standards i want a biblical accurate angel as a winner not the cherubs with LEDs of the ocean :(((

Tbh, yeah..... seeing a bunch of the fucked up guys get knocked out round 1 was brutal man. I don't have very strong opinions on most of the guys that are still in (except for magnapinna and bloody belly comb jelly, who i still haven't voted on because i am in tears), the guys i was really rooting for got DESTROYED. It's not like this is a big crime or against the spirit, the blog name may be freaky fish showdown but it's more like deep sea fish in general. But I'm still so sad about it :( I've got a big hyperfixation on the real fucked up creatures and I forgot other people,,,,,,,,, do not feel the same,,,,,,, I had to stop putting fun facts into the descriptions because 1) I don't have time for that lmao 2) a lot of the creatures that are getting through, don't.... have... more fun facts....? they just look pretty????? Which is so :( to me.

My main goal with this tournament was to get more people some awareness of some fucked up fish so hopefully I've accomplished that at least. Sad I couldn't tell you guys more about the fucked up creatures cause they died so fast. But google is free, if you're curious about any of the creatures here pleease go do some research on them and give them some love

(at least harp sponge has stayed in it this far that creature is SOOO fucked up i was so excited to learn about them <3)
