Is there any way to play Pokémon coloseum and get the ribbons from it WITHOUT needing to buy the actual console and game from it? I really badly want to do a ribbon challenge but the financial barrier for the ones on this game are way too high

WELLLLLLLL there are ways to (cough) do it with emulation or a hacked wii (COUGH)

if you have a hacked original wii with the gamecube ports on the side, all you would need is to run colo or xd off of nintendont with a USB stick (it's an installable homebrew app), make sure in nintendont's settings the game is set to use the native controllers instead of emulating them, and then purchase a gamecube -> GBA link cable which as far as i know are still pretty cheap, especially third party ones. then you can trade between those games and the GBA games like normal. of course this requires you to uh, go through the process of hacking your wii, which also may require you to buy a cheap ass SD card adapter if you don't have a computer that is able to read old big SD cards. but even if you had to buy a wii for all this i am pretty sure all of those four things combined (wii/cable/adapter/usb) are less of a price barrier than colo/xd which are insanely expensive for no fucking reason my god. for what it's worth i own authentic copies of colo/xd, but even i play it off my wii's nintendont sometimes, it's really convenient LOL

alternatively you could do this fully with PC emulation, just "trade" your pokemon into your colo or xd save with pkhex - you can literally open your colo save and your GBA save in two separate pkhex windows and drag and drop, the pokemon's data will be identical as if you had traded pokemon. if you're starting the challenge on physical gen 3 carts you'll need a way to back up the save files to do this in pkhex though - assuming you already own an original ds or ds lite, the cheapest way to do this is buy a ds flashcart/r4 and install a gba save file manager onto it and use that with the gba slot on the ds. there's also like, specially made devices for that purpose but they're usually a lot more expensive lol. if you do all of this on emulation up to gen 4 or 5 though, you could just use the dns exploit to trade your mons to an actual gen 4/5 cart ez with wifi

sorry for the really long ass answer i just wanted to give you the most options possible. sdfksfdl

The diagram for the classic Origami Goat, with a twist to make its horns curve ! It's from this video by by Origami Word, but it seems to be a pretty old/intemporal design that a lot of people have made. I could not find a diagram online so I made one.

(If you make her in yellow/orangy-yellow, then decorate her with red ribbons, you can make your own origami gävlebocken ! )

BEHOLD, FOR NATURE RECLAIMS THE SACRIFICE THAT THE ESTABLISHMENT REFUSES TO ALLOW US TO MAKE. IF WE CANNOT BURN IN SACRIFICE TO THE GODS, THE GODS WILL TAKE WHAT IS THEIRS BY FORCE

I cannot put into mortal words how fucking badly I want that swedish goat to burn. We live in a modern surveillance hellscape and not only is big brother watching you but he’s monitoring your purchase habits so he can sell you a smart refrigerator that will spy on you for the cia. the full weight of modern technology can be rallied to protect that straw monument to human hubris and I want us to burn it anyway. I want the might of modern society to crumple in the face of a drunk swede with a zippo lighter. we can do it just take my hand

A question I get asked a lot while working at a public library is "how do you deal with homeless people?"

And the answer is, we don't.

The unhoused people who come here seeking refuge 99% of the time understand that they will be kicked out if they misbehave.

The people you have to watch out for are Jessica, who only came because the kid she didn't want had to visit for a homework assignment and she just *needs* to yell at her child for asking to borrow two books or stay an extra five minutes, or Michael, who came in to look at porn on our computers for whatever fucking reason, or Karen who just wanted to come by to throw a fit that the particular book she wanted was checked out and harrass our staff about our collection being too limited.

99% of the time, the people we need to ban are middle to upper-middle class white people while the homeless and mentally ill/disabled people mind their own damn business and are honestly some of the best patrons we have.
