JANE: Okay Dirk, here are the rules. 

JANE: You are not allowed to chug three quarts of blue food coloring before the scheduled urine test at the doctor’s checkup.

JANE: Nor are you allowed to chug three quarts of red food coloring, and pretend to scream in agony when you get tested.

JANE: You are ALSO not allowed to threaten to kill yourself by putting pop rocks in Coca-Cola and then trying to drink it.

JANE: Similarly, putting red Mike and Ike’s candies into a prescription medicine bottle and then eating them all at once is not allowed and also not very funny.

DIRK: You guys never let me do anything cool anymore.

So in other news, there's a Chai Guitar "Weapon" mod on Nexus for Stardew.

No clue just HOW you get the item to start it off, but you're damn skippy I downloaded and aiming to get it in game. (It's AFTER iridum sword unlock and i'm woefully shard-less.)

Modded version of Prosperity :3 based on a server I play on

She wears chocobo armor and wing elytras (dyed yellow) and I headcanon that the magic slowly fused the wings and her body together. Her plant magic also made her horns grow into branch like antlers

Here's the information from the boxes:

Name: Prosperity

Race: Moobloom || Origin: Florian || Class: Farmer

More Info: Studying Agricraft + Botania || Owns 2 chocobos: Blizzard & Skippy || Plant-like powers

Lore: After the new world formed, Prosperity was reborn with more magical attributes. She hadn't fully touched into these powers, but the need for them draws them out. She doesn't have much of a goal besides becoming a master farmer.

Pronouns: Any

Personality: Friendly, likes animals & plants, easily distracted

Description The Sims 2 Seasons expansion pack introduced two new decorative rocks: Deluxe Small Rock (§80) and Premium Large Rock (§300). These rocks are meant to be used to decorate your Sims' garden, and they are visible in the neighborhood view. You can find these two rocks on the lawn of the O'Mackey house in the Riverblossom Hills neighborhood.

The Sims 2 Bon Voyage expansion pack added the ability for your Sims to dig anywhere on the ground to find various objects. Objects your Sims can find when they dig include large rock Greta the Granite, medium rock Rocky the Rock, and small rock Skippy the Stone. These three rocks are meant for collection items or indoor decoration because these rocks are not visible in the neighborhood view (although all three have the same description: "A decorative rock for your home or garden").

Due to an oversight or something, Bon Voyage's Skippy the Stone has the same 3D object model name as Seasons' Deluxe Small Rock: sculptureRockSmall; and Bon Voyage's Greta the Granite has the same 3D object model name as Seasons' Premium Large Rock: sculptureRockLarge. So when the Seasons and Bon Voyage expansion packs are both installed, the two garden decorative rocks from Seasons will have the same appearance as Bon Voyage rocks.

This mod fixes that. This mod changed the 3D object model name for Greta the Granite to sculptureRockLargeEP6, Skippy the Stone to sculptureRockSmallEP6, and created new Resource Nodes (CRES) for those new 3D object model names.

With this mod installed, the next time you play the O'Mackey house, you will see these rocks in their original form.

I work as a tutor in a program for aspiring teachers at an elementary school, and I stumbled on a book that I used to read as a kid- “Skippyjon Jones.” Basically, it’s about a Siamese cat who thinks he’s a Chihuahua and… hoo boy. There’s stereotypes galore- fake Spanish where they basically tack on an o or ito to a word, bandidos, and I kid you not- the Chihuahuas are mad that a bandit stole their beans. Yes, you heard me right- BEANS. Of course, there’s people who are like “it’s not racist snowflakes everyone’s so pc” but lots of Latine people and others have said that it makes them uncomfortable. I myself am Latine and cringed while reading it.

So I have seen these books but until you messaged me I'd forgotten about them for well over 8 years I think. I was given a skippy jon jones book back in 2007. (full disclosure I was in college but had not yet applied cultural appropriation to like media critically in fact I'm not sure I'd taken even one class on anthropology which is where the term comes from).

I'll try to dig up my copy but mean while I might just take pix of the books from my local library and talk about the specific examples.

Like don't get me wrong I understand you're sitting there uncomfortable in your observations about this series but I just want people to know that this is probably something how like Native Americans feel seeing their cultures appropriated in the HP series (or how Jewish people feel when they're examining the Goblins in the series for that matter).

Like the frustrating thing tho is that there's plenty of examples of this sort of thing in literature where white people have literally made fun of our cultures and bastardized them for their own gain.

TO BE CLEAR!!!!

There's a difference between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation.

Like ok I was just at starbucks today with a friend and granted I haven't really sat inside a starbucks more than like twice since the pandemic hit. Anyways I heard a ranchera song playing (I can't be sure if it was vicente fernandez my friend shazamed it). and like granted I've heard other non white artists playing at Starbucks before. but like its nice that they know their audience (somewhere in California lol) and there's nothing wrong with appreciating music from another culture you know? Just as long as its not some white person profitting of nonwhite cultures (looking at you madonna for the fetishization of black bodies in the 80's/90's, looking at you gwen stefani for the use of literal asian women as your entourage, looking at you ariana grande for blackface).

the difference is that Starbucks is endorsing our Mexican culture by playing rancheras by mexican singer/songwriters. meanwhile Judy Byron Schachner was treating Mexican culture like a play thing and profitting off of her bastardization.

Rumble of Ancient Times 18650 Mod

So first this happened...

Feckin went and caught covid again, this time I guess it was the latest strain. Walk in the park compared to when I caught the Omicron variant, that sucked balls. But I had a high fever that lasted for four and a half freakin days, peaking at 39.9ºC, that would go down to 38ºC when I took the fever reducer meds, then shoot right back up to over 39º once the meds stopped working. It's already almost two weeks later and I'm still wrecked, feel like I've been steamrollered. Oof. But before that was going on I obtained this:

The Rumble of Ancient Times. But hold on a sec, something looks different, and not just the groovy colored knob caps from Thonk (those are the shit by the way, they work on the Aira compact and Korg Volca series too). What's that peeking out at the lower left? A USB-C PORT? What mischief is this?! Mwuhahahaha. Yeah so originally it's powered by four triple-A batteries in a holder that has no lid, just exposed to the elements on the bottom side, and I dunno, something about that didn't sit well with me. I was thinking I could power it off a small USB-C smartphone battery brick, but no matter what I did I couldn't get it to power on, then I remembered that those only put out +5V, d'oh! So I had a peep around Jamazon, and found this:

SUPER feckin small thing, that. Like the size of my thumbnail plus a few mm. So what the thing is, is a Li-ion Li-po charger PLUS a step-up transformer in a wee package there. I think it will actually go all the way up to +24V. As it was, I soldered it up according to the diagram there on Jamazon, and after charging an 18650 successfully, feckin A right skippy this shit just might work man! I wired it up to a multimeter to test output voltage, then tweaked the wee trimmer to get +6V output. Then I jimmied the power leads onto the RoAT and crossed my fingers and said three Hail Satans and threw the switch and presto! it feckin worked! SO stoked. 18650s are cheap as balls, and this whole setup is taller but not so much larger than the original configuration, have a look:

I used rather thick 3M VHB super super extra strong double-sided tape to hold the two down, then obtained 25mm hexagonal brass M3 standoff leggiwegs and put it all together, as you can see in the photo second from top. Jamazon again. Well it's either them or order from Kyohritsu and pay almost the same amount but with Jamazon the stuff arrives the next day (or same day depending on the time I place the order). Anyway...

This is what it originally looked like. The battery holder is pretty sturdy and has a goddam good grip on the batteries but still... Hmmmm.

This is the schleprock special in place. I coulda trimmed the wiring a bit but at this point I was like let's just be done with this already. And the awesomesauceiest thing about it is NO NOISE from the battery. This is something that I was super worried about, given that I was going to power the thing with a non-standard power source, but in the end it all worked out fine and YAY ME! Oh I suppose I should mention cost. The batteries were the most expensive part at about ¥2000 for two, because I chose the made in Japan option. For five of the wee USB-C charging slash step up boards plus battery socket/holders it was ¥1399. So to me it felt like $34 even though the exchange rate is ridiculous and the yen is getting its arse beaten senseless right now. Feck. Yeah so if there's anyone out there with one of these thinking ya know I dunno about those batteries... this is an easy to do mod. I don't know how long the battery will hold out for between charges, but seeing as the circuit on the RoAT probably doesn't eat current, I imagine I could go a month or so between charges. This will also work with the flat 3.7V Li-Po batteries by the way. That would yield a lower profile and give a smaller overall device to mess with. Just have to watch out for the mAh value and make sure it's above 3000. Might mess with that in the future. Hmmmm. Something else I did...

Barely visible.. The LED frequency and the shutter speed were not playing nicely with each other. I changed out the Solo and Mute LEDs on a Korg Nanokontrol, to white and yellow respectively, just because. I got a 1010music blue box digital mixer and found out you can use class compliant USB control surfaces and was like well shit. So there you go. The LEDs were SMD but since getting that SMD desolderer thingy off AliExpress, doing work like this has become quite easy. It's still a pain to solder LEDs the size of dust motes though. Jeeezus those things are feckin small.

Hope all is well with you and yours.
