Today in đâ¨October surprisesâ¨đ

⢠Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and Secretary of Labor Julie Su quietly assisted in winning labor rights for dockworkers, ending a strike that could have had catastrophic economic consequences. (10-4-24)
⢠In Springfield, Ohio, where Haitian migrants have been blamed for the disappearance of local animals with Trump claiming ââmigrants are walking offâ with geese in the townâ and âtheyâre eating the dogsâ - a lie also promoted by JD Vance, Ohioâs own sitting Senator, with no evidence - it turns out that the missing geese were actually the victims of a 64-year-old white man who was hunting illegally. (10-3-24)
⢠A Trump-appointed federal judge blocked Bidenâs student loan forgiveness plan again after another judge reinstated it earlier this week. (10-3-24)
⢠Republicans and crazy Facebook uncles everywhere have spent this week spreading disinformation about the FEMA response to Hurricane Helene, including AI photos of Trump standing in floodwater and wild claims that Biden is sending money to undocumented immigrants. In reality, the Biden-Harris administration has provided substantial emergency assistance and both Biden and Harris have visited the region. Meanwhile, it turns out that Trump was the one who redirected money from disaster relief to send to ICE during his presidency. Shocker. (10-4-24)
⢠Seriously, though, Trump is not who you want to call in an emergency. Before allowing disaster relief to reach victims of wildfires in California, then-president Trump forced aides to show him an electoral map to see if he had voters there. He evidently intended to withhold the aid if he found out it was going to mostly Democratic voters. This would be a career-ending scandal in any other political era but alas, we are living in this one. (10-3-24)
⢠Finally, far-right extremist and Oklahoma superintendent of schools Ryan Walters intends to put Bibles in public schools, which is already disturbing, but in a stunning display of corruption, the only ones that meet his specifications are the so-called âTrump Biblesâ that include the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. They go for $60 apiece and Trump gets fees from each one. (10-4-24)
No, wait, Iâm going to say that one again:
In Oklahoma, taxpayersâ money will be used to put Trump Bibles in public schools. Their money will go directly to Trump. Not a joke!!! Not an exaggeration!!!
âŚSurely the voters who are still undecided are lying, right?? Right?!
30 days until Election Day.
Go to vote.org for a sample ballot, early voting dates, and more. Seriously, we have to win.
#guys should I start a substack#joking but seriously. Pay Attention! Itâs Time! lots happening and#remarkably little reporting on the wildfires thing and the julie su/pete buttigieg win!#I think the Oklahoma thing is actually organized crime?#he already has a rico case is he trying to get another one#us politics#mine#us news#kamala 2024#vote

Netflix robbed us of seeing Cameron and Ruby act out the aching, mortifying scene of Lucy's reunion with Lockwood at her Studio Apartment of Depression and I'll never forgive them for it.
#lockwood netflix#lockwood & co#lockwood and co#anthony lockwood#lucy carlyle#lockwood and lucy#seriously never paying for that shitty subscription ever again#Cameron looking at his trainers with his big sad sleep deprived eyes#saying âits only been a few months i haven't suddenly started taking sugar in my teaâ#you're permanently on my shit list Netflix#yo ho ho i got other ways I'm not giving you money no way

every single time i try
me: i should stop hanging out in such jewish places, especially online. let's see. *opens door* right wing: we hate you because you support queer rights left wing, sharpening knife: we hate you because you don't trust us not to kill us the first chance we get, just because we have for 2,300 years. 'centrists': back up one sec, what's a pogrom, who is this kid kfir, and what do you mean antisemitism didn't start and end with hitler? me: *closes door* nope, staying on jumblr.
#jumblr#jewblr#jewish#judaism#antisemitism#jewish tumblr#tw antisemitism#leftist antisemitism#but seriously#I'm starting to feel the only safe spaces for Jews are ones by & for Jews#and that's depressing#because I *want* to be able to read & support left-wing sites! I agree with much of what they say!#but I can't#not in good conscience#and I would be more receptive to right-wing arguments if they didn't come with a load of phobias#and it's so goddamn tiring needing to explain every. little. thing because most goyim don't pay attention#and I don't fault them for that (I don't know much about the situation in Sudan)#but it's just tiring explaining again and again and again#and I don't want to be in a walled garden#but I don't see any other way

Tartarus is still a little broken and that's Fun !
#so far playing through all of this i have to say. the no level cap increase makes me feel cheated#with how much questing we're doing and all#iirc they said they wanted to take companion promos seriously but did this whole. Hawkules thing#where you have to get a drop and they eventually needed to increase its rate in this recent update#and if you wanted it without farming you have to pay 10 bucks worth of crowns for it now#you know! to promote a companion! but see you can just BUY a companion in the crownshop using that real money#if you cant tell ive not been a fan of this new promotion method and this is taking it 'seriously'?#granted ive just started tartarus so i kind of want to hold my tongue and see the rest for myself rn#so far these quests are Good and Bad. they definitely went in the right direction but. no level cap kind of hurts.#still feels like we're stuck in one place even though we're moving forward#there's a lot of great concepts and even better dialogue to even out the bad#but at what point do we feel it's worth doing all this effort for. a couple new mid comps and a chance at a main comp promo?#keep in mind all this posting is just my own opinion. i know there's ppl out there that either love or loathe these additions#and i find myself in the middle tbh#i find this story fine and good so far i guess but i don't know if i'm still going to feel this way by the end of it#and yes yes 'be grateful p101 even got updates' while wiz continues to get new worlds and level cap increases. wonderful to be where we are#rambling#vent

Queer Joy? No. Time to talk about Queer Fear.
conservatives saying that the queer community is indoctrinating kids are so fucking blind. Back when I was a kid I was worried constantly. Like what if some gunman sees this pride sticker on my water bottle and kills me? What if a terf outs me against my will? What if my transphobic grandma takes me to church and sits me down for a long republican conversation? What if I have an anxiety attack and hurt myself? (I was 12. I was FUCKING TWELVE. This was my childhood.)
Iâm done with this fucking shit. Queer people are not groomers, pedophiles, or murderers. I feel safer with a queer person on tumblr than I would with ANY REPUBLICAN.
queers arenât killing kids, conservatives are.
pls reblog to spread awareness
#i need hjalp#Like serious hjalp#protect trans kids#protect queer kids#Kids not guns#seriously u guys.

i feel like im not making any sense but does anyone else feel like there are stories that let u run with them and ones that spell everything out for you
#im reading that post that says artists are directors of audience reaction and not its dictator:#'you cannot guarantee that everyone viewing your work will react as you are trying t make them react. a good artist knows that this is what#allows work to breath. by definition you cannot have art where the viewer brings nothing to the table ... this is why you have to let go of#the urge to plainly state in text exactly how you think the work should be interpreted ... its better to be misinterpreted sometimes than#to talk down to your audience. you wont even gain any control that way; people will still develop their opinions no matter what you do#im thinking abt this again cuz i was thinking maybe the thing that lets adventure time work so well the way it does is cuz it doesnt#take itself too seriously that it gives the audience enough room to fuck with subtext and then fuck with them back yknow. i think it was#mentioned somewhere that they werent even planning to run with the postapocalyptic elements that are hinted in the show but changed their#mind after the one off with the frozen businessmen and dominoed into marcy and simons backstory. on the other side there are stories that#explain too much to let the story speak for itself and i think it ends up having to do more with the crew trying to lead ppl in a certain#direction than expand on what they have and i see a lot of this with miraculous. like when interviews and tweets are used as word of god in#arguments and it becomes a little stifling to play around with it knowing the creator can just interject. u can say its the crews effort to#engage with its audience but it feels more like micromanaging. and none of this is to say there ISNT room for stories that spell things out#theyre just suited for different things. if sesame street tried abstract approaches to themes and nuance itd be counterproductive#a lot of things fly over my head so i need help picking things apart to get it- but it doesnt have to be from the story itself. ive picked#picked up or built on my own interpretations listening to other ppl share their thoughts which creates conversation around the same thing#sometimes stories will spell things out for you without being so obvious abt it that it feels like its woven into the text. my fav example#for this might be ATLA using younger characters as its main cast but instead of feeling like its dumbed down for kids to understand why war#is bad its framed from a childs point of view so younger audiences can pick up on it by relating to the characters. maybe an 8 year old#wont get how geopolitics works but at least they get 'hey the world is a little more complicated than everyone vs. fire nation'. same for#steven universe bc its like theyre trying to describe and put feelings into words that kids might not have so they have smth to start with#especially with the metaphors around relationships bc even if it looks unfamiliar as a kid now maybe the hope is for it to be smth you can#look back to. thats why it feels like these shows grew up with me.. instead of saving difficult topics for 'when im ready for it'#as if its preparing me for high school it gave me smth to turn in my hands and revisit again and again as i grow. stories that never#treated u as dumb all along. just someone who could learn and come back to it as many times as u need to. i loved SU for the longest time#but i felt guilty for enjoying it hearing the way ppl bash it. bc i was a kid and thought other ppl understood it better than me and made#feel bad for leaning into the message of paying forward kindness and not questioning why steven didnt punish the diamonds or hold them#accountable. but im rewatching it now and going oh. i still love this show and what it was trying to teach me#yapping#diary

There's an incredibly narrow line I walk in which like, I do not consider my meta to be A Gift To The Fandom and I find it irritating when people act like they are god's gift to a fandom or do a whole Little Red Hen style "I BUST MY ASS LOOKING FOR CREATOR TWEETS" routine; but also obviously I do not begrudge any artist who DOES make a decent amount of income through fandom and so I don't want to say this is ONLY a silly little hobby for everyone because obviously for some people it is an entry point to a larger livelihood through commissions. ANYWAY this preamble is just to set up this, which is that on the one hand I don't think of me writing meta as "labor" per se, but also the second someone throws a fit because I don't write the meta they like my brain immediately kicks in with "labor is entitled to all it creates". Anyway if you've ever sent a meta writer, fan artist, or fic writer hate about how they don't do what you want, consider: providing a fair hourly wage and benefits.
#the alluded to overreaction thing i had with people asking me too many questions about games is actually tied#to like. people either pushing me to monetize (non-fandom) hobbies i did for fun; or acting entitled to the fruits of (non-fandom hobbies)#queue#but also in all seriousness you want me to stop saying something or start saying something? pay up#i will say nice things about your ship/not say mean things IF you pay me otherwise i do what i want. and I'm not cheap.

i'm so tired.
#guess who has some kind of nerve damage or deep tissue damage or SOMETHING from my fucking wisdom tooth extraction#THIS GAL#not only did I have to pay $1200 for a new crown that the oral surgeon knocked off because my insurance wouldn't cover it#that same area has been experiencing pain and other symptoms for weeks now#AND now I've started getting dry mouth too#I finally made an appointment with the surgeon on Monday because I'm so tired of this#I've been extremely physically and mentally fragile since that surgery 2 months ago#and it feels like nobody takes me seriously because it's such a routine surgery and most people have no complications#I just want someone to acknowledge the pain I've been going through and how much I've been struggling#btw if you're reading this please please PLEASE listen to your gut when it comes to medical stuff#I didn't like the place I went to after the consultation but felt like I didn't have a choice#because they're one of the few places that do extractions in a hospital setting and I needed that#I should have listened to my gut and tried to find somewhere else to go instead of just passively accepting it like I fucking always do#when am I finally going to grow a spine#anyway yeah take care of yourself because no one else will

you know the contrast between how Vergil is presented vs thinking too hard about Vergilâs story is pretty funny. Manâs reputation is this iconic badass, the pinnacle of what video game rivalries can be, the coolest guy to play as, the guy who breaks every game heâs added to,
and then you go to the story and like. manâs lost his free will and autonomy at 19 and then came back a fractured man half of which was a lovecraftian eye beast the other half of which was a chronically ill goth man. and then he reunites and hes in like his 40s now I believe but legit the last time he was actually in a game where he wasnât being mind controlled when he was 19 which is both sad but also thinking about how this guy whoâs considered one of the top badasses of gaming has never really lived life outside of being a teenager.
Anyways this is the secret comedic potential of post DMC5 for Vergil because not only has the human world probably changed a fair bit in terms of technology, if heâs sticking around Dante heâs gonna actually have to learn in depth how taxes and grocery shopping work. Amazing.
#thinking about dmc seriously for the first time in a while...I never stopped the occasional canary reblog but hmmmmmmm#like I imagine post 3 Vergil was probably similarly doing mercenary/demon killing work to get money like Dante was and thats sorta shown in#the novels. but like before that when he was a young young kid just post attack he was probably just living feral in an alleyway or smth#with just the yamato prolly similar to how v at the start of visions of v was. that child mugged and dumpster dived ok#point is while obviously he got to a place where he wasnt like. broke and homeless by the gilver era hes probably not had to think much#about money besides it buys me food and clothes mans was confused by one goaland power and yada yada while guess what buddy now you're#gonna be consumed by adulting. I dont even think he'd be that bothered by Dante not paying the bills at first but once he settles into human#living and gets a firsthand experience of what a cold shower when the heating is off feels like he is ON his ass about it#he pretends hes sooooo above human concerns until he has to live them lol and nowhes in charge of devil may crys finances prolly#nero taught him how to do taxes I bet#devil may cry#vergil sparda#vergil

I've started playing Potion Permit, and so far it's one of my favorite games I've messed around with, but the most big brained move the devs made was giving you a dog on day 1, and then making that dog able to track NPCs and lead you directly to them no matter where they are in the town.
#im still early game but i like the play and the writing is passable#like#Theres a flatness#the characters Are distinct but theyre mostly just their jobs#with only a few who stand out and have like. something to really grab onto#Like rue? rues entire deal is little girl you can date. Nothing else behind those eyes. She has nothing better to talk to you about#than the fact her favorite color is red#Sorcelia? Sorcelia is a goth nun who loves singing and teaches one of the village children#Reynerd? sure is a guy#got nothing else to say about him. hes just a Guyâ˘. Victor? Has ghost friends and loves bugs and cares deeply about the cemetery#he tends to. At the moment it feels like they're trying to imply there aren't actually ghosts. and hes just talking to himself/#insisting his imaginary friends are real people#and so far? The games been cool about it. Victor's a member of his community and his eccentricities are accepted and not ridiculed#all four characters ive mentioned are romance candidates. but its just as hit or miss with the regular towns folk#Opalheart is an older woman and a world renowned blacksmith who only takes jobs if they will do Good. regardless of whether or not they#pay well. She declines to make a dagger for a rich man but makes a helmet for a childs father bc the girl asked#and olive is here#anyways you can be best friends with a cat (shes just a regular cat) and i appreciate that#idk im putting it above sun haven in my ranking of life sim games#purely because there are older romance candidates.#no fat romance candidates. but sun haven doesn't have thise either.#and sdv has neither fat or old candidates Nor can you fuck a cat boy. it goes at the bottom.#gameplay wise sunhaven is at the bottom then sdv then potion permit at the top. sunhaven has the Most⢠but having#a lot of crap doesn't mean its fun and it ends up making half the game feel really incomplete#idk. Sdv is a game you should've started playing a year ago. sun haven is a game that perpetually needs another year worth of updates#before id say its worth it bc the devs keep pushing content ⢠updates instead of quality of life or polish so what is there is uh#Bad. plentiful. and a large portion is good#but a Lot is just bad.#its insincere and cant take itself seriously it gives you (the right dialogue option) an (the shit joke option) which is worse than just#i ram out of space. tldr. potion permit is good Now. sdv Was good. sun haven Might be great Eventually

Yâall. I just remembered what my 3AM thought was. Iâm just gonna leave it here and see what happens.
Wind: So youâre a hero in your world?
Shadow (as in Shadow the Hedgehog): Yes. Please refrain from touching me.
Sky: Youâre a hedgehog, right?
Shadow: Not entirely. I was created with more than just hedgehog anatomy, but itâs true that the majority of my outward appearance is supposed to be that of a hedgehogâs.
Twilight: And you can do magic?
Shadow: Chaos energy.
#curled up in my writerâs corner#what have I done?#is it good?#bad?#what is it??#shadow is close to Windâs height in my book#At least one of them struggles to take him seriously at first#Shadow helps Hyrule heal the others#Shadow meeting Wolfie and either being obvious and not paying kind to the wolf as big as he is#or knowing right from the start somehow#linked universe#shadow the hedegehog#shadow the ultimate lifeform
