Does your Luigi outright hate anyone. Because based on what I’ve seen in your videos, the man is so innocent that he seems emotionally and mentally incapable of hatred.

In my AU, I don't think there's anyone Luigi completely hates.

There's Bowser, who has hurt Mario several times (and caused Mario's first 1-up), which Luigi will never forgive Bowser for. However, at the same time, his fear of him is greater than his hatred. If he sees Bowser nearby, he will do whatever he can to get away from him (or find Mario if he's nearby to stick with him)

Then there's King Boo, and while he has stuck Mario in a painting 3 times, I think Luigi was more scared of him possibly hurting Mario (and also scared of him in general because y'know, he's a ghost)

I think the only person who he feels the most hate for (but, again, his fear overpowers it) is Dimentio. This is mainly because he now has Mr. L's memories thanks to E. Gadd's experiment before the most recent Christmas Party, and Mr. L hated Dimentio's guts after the box thing. He felt betrayed. He used to think of Dimentio as a friend, but then after that, that was gone. So now that Luigi has those memories, he's scared of how powerful Dimentio is (and to be fair, he did technically kill Luigi two times in my AU; SPM & 2022's Christmas Party), but he's also upset at him for betraying his trust like that.

Writing Journal III

My dreams are just dreams

Everyone once wished to become a doctor when they were young and I was one of them. It wasn’t just a passing whim but the biggest dream I ever held in my heart. The thought of wearing that white coat, saving lives and comforting those in pain filled me with a sense of purpose. Whenever I stepped into a hospital, I could almost see myself walking the halls as a doctor, my future laid out before me like a clear and unwavering path.

In 2022, I was in Form 4 and was fortunate enough to be placed in the Pure Science stream, a step closer to my dream. I was grateful, believing that all my late nights spent studying when I was form 3 had finally paid off. My ambitions were set. I would work tirelessly and earn at least 6As. For 2 long years, I threw myself into my studies with everything I had. I was chasing a future that I could almost touch, driven by the belief that hard work could make anything possible.

But as the SPM exams drew nearer, my confidence wavered. There were nights when doubts crept in, taunting me with the possibility of failure. Despite the encouraging words from my parents and friends, the fear was always there and lurking in the back of my mind. January to March 2024 became a blur of exam papers, sleepless nights and silent prayers. I sat for each paper with trembling hands, desperately hoping that my efforts over the past 2 years would be enough.

Then, it was over. SPM ended, and I felt a wave of relief and exhaustion. My friends and I embraced grateful that we had made it through together. But beneath the relief was a quiet dread and the anxious anticipation of what was to come next.

The months that followed were torturous. I filled my days helping my parents do the chores at home but my thoughts never wandered far from the results. I spent endless nights staring at the ceiling, replaying every exam question in my mind and wondering if I could have done something differently.

Finally, the day of reckoning arrived. I walked into my old school. My mother by my side, feeling as though my heart might pound out of my chest. When my class teacher handed me the slip of paper, I barely breathed as I unfolded it. And then, my world came crashing down.

I did not achieve 6As. My hopes shattered as I saw the grades staring back at me and my elective subjects had sunk to a C. It felt like a cruel punch to the gut, like the dream I had been chasing for years had suddenly slipped through my fingers. On the drive home, I couldn’t hold back the tears. The sobs echoed in the car but there were no words that could ease the emptiness I felt inside.

For days, I locked myself in my room, trying to come to terms with the loss of a future I thought was mine. I felt lost, adrift in a sea of uncertainty where all the roads I had once seen so clearly now blurred into nothingness.

A month passed, I had to make a decision. I forced myself to accept that medicine was no longer an option, no matter how much it hurt. My parents were there, always urging me not to give up. They reminded me that dreams could be rebuilt even if they were different from what I had imagined. I tried to find the strength to believe them. I decided to apply for TESL, feeling a faint spark of hope for a new beginning.

Eventually, I was accepted into the TESL diploma programme at Kolej Poly-Tech MARA Bangi. It wasn’t the path I had envisioned, but it was a path nonetheless. I resolved to give my best to aim for a dean’s list every semester and to keep pushing forward even if my heart still ached for the dream that I had to let go.

Now, I hope to become a teacher who will inspire others to reach for their dreams, even when life doesn’t go as planned. I will guide my students with the kind of compassion I once longed for and helping them find new dreams when their old ones fade away. And perhaps, through them, I will find a way to heal and learn to dream again.

After all, He's the best of planners.

The end.

SMALL SPM STINKy LORE IDEAaaaaaaaa! (lol)

"Long... very long time ago there was nothing. Just a cold void. No stars. No planet. Nothing of nothing...

Then there came the Ancients. A bunch of really powerful beings. No one knows how they born. They were just... there.

And they created the worlds. Also the ones of a untouchable and invisibile reality.

They were a lot, but i quote the most powerfuls:

Merlimbis was the first one. She was a powerful witch expert in potion mixing. Her husband was Merlight, a really witting god. He helped his wife to appreciate technology and mixing somehow magic and mechanic. Some of their experiments went fine like Fracktail and the Pixls.

But a lot of them... failed.

They created abominations like a shapeshifter spider girl, white whispering hands and shadows.

One day Merlight tried to control the Pixls with the creations of a robot called Pixl Queen who went crazy because of wrong gears montages. So they imprisoned all these freaks in the 100 Trial Maze in the sewers of Flopside, a dark city.

The Second one was Merloo, the hunger and most anxious of the group. Since he was scared overthought about the future events, he made two books. The first one was called the Light Prognosticus and it was wrote with some golden liquid fallen from the Sun. This book should inform the Ancients of fortunate and happy events. Then Merloo wrote another book: the Dark Prognosticus, with some dying futureteller's tears. Created to inform the Ancients about awful future events early, so they could prepare themselves early.

The last two Ancients were Merlumina and Merlim (aka past Dimentio lol)

The first one was a love sick gal and the second one a narcissist guy. If the first couple worked perfectly fine (Merlight and Merlimbis) this last couple was completely messed up. At first, Merlim was in love with his wife Merlumina but truly he started to be secretly obsessed with the failed experiment Mimi (the Spider Girl). And faked to love Merlumina just because his own goals. Merlumina was the guardian of the Pure Hearts, the objects that balance the entire cosmos.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Complete random story. I was reading something about the Ancients and Dimentio and i discovered some theories of Dimi being Shadoo's brother and son of the magician who created the Pixls. My take of the story is a bit different and messy because these stuff were all scrapped ideas for a freaking AU that is completely gone (since i abandoned the idea of making AUs in general because they require a lot of time and they get never finished.) So this is a mix of old stinky ideas i had in 2022. I write these silly texts just in my spare time and because my artstyle is completely different from the original SPM game so it won't fit the original designs and lore. And i like giving a sense to what i draw lol.

Child poverty is a persistent national issue with lifetime and intergenerational consequences, but the distribution of its incidence and its impacts vary. One dimension that deserves attention is the variation in child poverty by state and the effectiveness of and potential for federal policy to confront the problem. In this essay, the authors investigate how the CTC affected child poverty in states by two characteristics: state-level cost of living (high-cost versus low-cost states) and state-level poverty (high versus low pre-tax/transfer poverty rates). They find that while the CTC caused substantial reductions in poverty in each kind of state, poverty reductions were the highest in low-cost, high poverty states, i.e., those states with relatively lower cost of living and with a higher poverty baseline.

INTRODUCTION

The 2021 expansion of the Child Tax Credit (CTC) led to a historic reduction in poverty in the United States, particularly for children. Research showed that child poverty fell immediately and substantially. On an annual basis, according to the US Census Bureau, child poverty fell to its lowest level on record in 2021: 5.2% (Creamer et al. 2022). Moreover, the CTC benefit’s monthly delivery likely reduced volatility in income and poverty; research has shown that volatility compromises family and child well-being (Hamilton et al. 2022).

The dramatic reductions in poverty induced by the expanded CTC represent positive changes to economic well-being. There are potentially larger and longer-run benefits from an increase in economic security for families with low and moderate levels of income (Garfinkel et al. 2022). Income support enhances children’s lifetime social and economic outcomes by allowing families to meet basic needs and by increasing families’ income stability. Specifically, transfer programs that provide cash and near-cash supports have been shown to promote stronger educational, emotional, and health outcomes (Akee et al. 2018; Hardy 2022; Hardy, Hill, and Romich 2019; Hoynes, Schanzenbach, and Almond 2016; Rothstein and Wozny 2013).

The 2021 expanded CTC extended full refundability to families with little or no taxable income. Adults with young children between 0 and 5 years old received refundable credits of $3,600 per child, while those with children between 6 and 17 years old received credits of $3,000 per child. These benefit changes allowed for more of the lowest-income families—historically, those from non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic, and American Indian and Alaska Native communities (Hardy 2022)—to benefit from the program (Center on Poverty and Social Policy at Columbia University, 2021). The Census’s Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) showed that children from all racial and ethnic minority groups experienced relatively large reductions in poverty rates, but that SPM poverty rates fell most dramatically for Black and Hispanic children. Black child poverty rates fell by 17 percentage points between 2009 and 2021, while SPM child poverty rates fell from 30% to 8% among Hispanic children over the same period (Creamer et al. 2022).

But where in the country did the expanded CTC reduce child poverty the most? It is not obvious, for example, whether the expanded CTC would have reduced poverty more or less in higher-versus lower-poverty states, or whether the degree of poverty re-duction differed by the cost of living in states. Income distributions vary across states, as does the depth of poverty (i.e., how close or far families lie from the poverty line) within any given state. One well-established feature of federally administered transfer programs is that they tend to reallocate resources from higher-income states to lower-income states. And, importantly, states vary on cost of living, which is an often-underexplored driver of poverty.

These differences across states are especially relevant today, given well-documented housing supply gaps and staggeringly high housing costs facing many families. On the one hand, some of the nation’s poorest states, disproportionately situated in the South, are among the least expensive. On the other hand, these same less-expensive states tend to provide weaker safety net protections and make lower investments in education; strong safety nets and higher investments in education are two core features of successful economic mobility strategies (Ziliak 2019).

This essay investigates how the CTC affected child poverty across states. In our two primary analyses, we examine how the reduction in child poverty varies across two characteristics: state-level cost of living (high vs. low cost of living) and state-level poverty (high vs. low pretax/transfer poverty rates). We find that, although the CTC caused substantial reductions in poverty in each kind of state (i.e., high vs. low cost of living, high vs. low pretax/transfer poverty rates), poverty reductions were the highest in low-cost, high-poverty states, which are those states with a relatively lower cost of living and with a higher baseline poverty rate. It stands to reason that, when the expanded CTC sunset on Dec. 31, 2021, those states were also where child poverty increased the most.

Linha SNS 24 já atendeu mais de dois milhões de chamadas em 2024

A linha SNS 24 já atendeu mais de dois milhões de chamadas este ano, segundo dados divulgados pelo portal do Serviço Nacional de Saúde (SNS), superando a marca alcançada no ano passado.

O registo de dois milhões de chamadas atendidas desde janeiro foi registado na sexta-feira, enquanto em 2023, de acordo com informações avançadas em dezembro pelos Serviços Partilhados do Ministério da Saúde (SPMS), foram atendidas cerca de 1,7 milhões de chamadas.

"Os dados refletem o crescente reconhecimento e confiança no SNS 24, que tem sido essencial não só para esclarecimento de dúvidas, mas também para referenciar para o nível de cuidados mais adequado, aumentando o conforto dos utentes e a qualidade e a segurança da prestação de cuidados", refere a nota publicada no portal.

O SNS destacou ainda a importância do funcionamento desta linha telefónica (808 24 24 24), ao assinalar que a referenciação para cuidados de saúde primários ou para autocuidados permite "reduzir as deslocações desnecessárias aos serviços de urgência e, deste modo, aliviar a pressão sobre estes serviços e permitir que os profissionais se concentrem sobre situações que exigem cuidados agudos diferenciados".

A procura foi particularmente visível durante a pandemia de covid-19, quando se registaram os máximos de chamadas atendidas pelos profissionais de saúde ao serviço da linha SNS 24. Em 2022 atingiu-se o recorde de mais de nove milhões de chamadas, ultrapassando os anteriores máximos de 2021, em que se tinham registado mais de seis milhões de chamadas, ou de 2020, com mais de quatro milhões de chamadas.

Os dois milhões de chamadas já atendidas este ano ficam também à frente do registo de 2019, o último ano pré-pandemia, no qual a linha SNS 24 atendeu cerca de 1,4 milhões de chamadas.

A linha SNS 24 completou sete anos de funcionamento em julho e, segundo o portal, tornou-se a "porta de entrada" para o SNS.
