Greaaaat... Because of my idile thoughts on this thread: https://www.tumblr.com/lost-technology/756481775043330048/heh-heh-i-want-to-analyze-this-i-picked-legato I am wondering if I should make another sideblog: "is-the-plant-video-cute" and impersonate Rem Saverem, taking any canonical videos, manga-scans, screenshots and fan-observations by Trigun-fans regarding Plants (both Dependent and Independent) with words as a Plant Research expert on whether or not the Plant-content is "cute" or "harmful" like what people do on here for animals. Should I go ahead with it or not? Would anyone who follows me start sending in stuff and asking "Rem" for her input?

I DREW FREAKING BENNY SHARP

[jmoloney1]

I have reason to believe Jess-Moloney-Malarkey is a minor based on evidence I was sent (but am totally not going to show to prove to anyone) so based on this I don’t have to answer her questions anymore or respond to her. Nor does anyone else who’s an adult because it would be inappropriate to be engaging a minor. Yes, that’s it. That’s how you get out of being outed as the liar you are just lie some more.

CAS Background Replacement - TS3 - Jin & Wen Sims 4

This set of 3 stunning backgrounds is by Jin & Wen Sims 4 on TSR. They look right out of a Studio Ghibli movie.

Information

The background uses a 2048x2048px image so it may slow down your computer and look blurry if graphics settings are not on high. Use at your own risk.

The CAS Room Default will replace the CAS Room, Create-a-Pet room, and the Create-a-Bot room. You can only have 1 CAS Room Default at a time. The CAS Room Default is base game compatible.

The Stylist Room Default will only replace the Stylist Room. You can only have 1 Stylist Room Default at a time. The Stylist Room is part of the Ambitions EP.

I was sent a link to a ‘chat with Mark Darrah' interview video that I hadn’t seen before. [here is the source] link. the interview took place in 2022, so bear that in mind when listening, but it still has interesting insights and things in there.

the rest of this post is under a cut due to length.

this post is just some brief notes and a few transcribed quotes of interest from the video.

Mark ofc was in charge of DA:O, DAII, & DA:I, then, quote, “then a bunch of malarkey happened” and he ended up in charge of Anthem in 2017 in its final ~16 months

In AAA games narrative is a certain thing that was very much defined in a lot of ways by BioWare

There’s a BioWare story in Anthem (though certainly not its best), if you just ignore everything else

The average gamer puts way too much stock into what engine is used to make a game

Mark is pretty sure that the guts of Neverwinter Nights is underneath the Witcher engine

Moving DA from Aurora to Eclipse to Frostbite (engines) opened up more possibility spaces

Frostbite stagnated because it essentially was the engine everyone had to use at EA

Before DA:I, there was a game at BioWare internally codenamed “Blackfoot”. It was going to be a multiplayer DA game and was using Frostbite before DA:O, during the time of DAII’s late development but before DA:I started development. It never shipped as it got eaten by DA:I

For the MET, Casey was originally trying to make a Star Control-type game but cinematic. Echoes of this can be seen in ME1. But ME the IP itself wants to be a space opera. Ultimately the cinematic experience side of it won out

And some specific quotes:

“Something that I noticed is that, sometimes, if your studio is hiring only your biggest fans, which I saw at BioWare sometimes, those people are in some ways, they’re almost more, they have more zealotry towards the ‘old way’ of doing things than – that’s right, that [from a fandom point of view] is all they know. And they don’t necessarily know that this was awful or that ‘there could have been a better way, we just didn’t see it until later’. All they know is, ‘this is what you did, and you made this thing I love, so we have to do that too’, and, so that’s a danger that could happen is, you get the, you know the monkeys and the bananas, like, ‘I don’t even know why we’re doing this anymore, but I know we’ve always done it.’”

-

“The biggest reason to consolidate on an engine is for the ability to share more work within your studio. In theory.” “The problem that often happens is that you end up with not nearly as much sharing as you would imagine. FIFA doesn’t share anything with DA. And in BioWare’s case it’s even worse than that, there’s very little sharing between DA:I and ME:A, and between ME:A and Anthem. A lot of troubles ME:A and Anthem had is [because of] not building upon the foundations of DA:I.”

-

“My great frustration of BioWare from around 2013 to basically today [2022], there wasn’t a building upon the past.” “30% of DA:I’s tech budget was spent on tooling. On ME:A they didn’t build upon the tools that were laid by DA:I, partially because they started before DA:I shipped, but also for ‘Not Build Here’ reasons. They spent 10-15% approximately of their budget on tools. Anthem didn’t build on either of these foundations and they spent about less than 10% of their budget on tools. So it was like they were going backwards, respecting the engine less and less as they went forward, resulting in more and more struggles happening.” “I have the most sarcastic PowerPoint presentation ever which compares those two games, which are treated as if they’re widely different things. They’re pretty much exactly the same game, from the perspective of any external observer. ME is more like DA than it is like anything else. So it’s ridiculous. The answer is hubris, is the answer.”

-

On endings and the future:

“I think you have to do something [about the endings]. ME was always conceived as being a trilogy, but I think what you actually end up with with ME1-3, if you kind’ve just stick them together into one ridiculously big game, that’s why it, in some ways, the complaints about the original ME3 ending are so hilarious because in a way, the game ME3 is the ending for this entire huge game, which isn’t awesome, because you know, the last Hobbit movie is also stupid because it’s all ending. So, that’s not necessarily the best, but that’s essentially what you have. So because it was intended as a trilogy, it, to some kind of degree it kind of takes its ball and goes home at the end, where its like, ‘I’m gonna render the possibility of a direct sequel to this sooo nearly impossible that it’s ludicrous’. It could be that, so we know that the Mass Relays are down, that’s also true, but, like, we have potentially, everyone’s a cyborg, potentially there are no robots, potentially, potentially, potentially, it’s bananas. But interestingly, if you look at ME1, ME2 and ME3 as a single game, and then you look at DA:O, DA:O was always, was originally envisioned as a standalone game. There was never even a consideration for a sequel made for that. If you look at DA:O and then look at what it does at its ending, so the ending of the game itself is fairly tight, it’s like, well you definitely have to kill the Arch Demon, and you’ve ended the Blight, but then you go through the end credits stuff, the epilogue screens. And it’s like, maybe there’s a civil war happening in Orzammar, maybe there are werewolves spreading across this entire part of Ferelden, maybe there are no werewolves at all. Like it’s similar. Now what DA, the way that DA approached the solution to that was to canonize some of those choices, but for the most part just move away, far enough physically, so it’s like, okay, well maybe there are werewolves down south there, that’s not my problem, I got my own problems. Or it moves through time, which is one of the reasons why DA2 moves through so much time is, it gives distance from DA:O. One of the major reasons why ME:A is literally hundreds of years in the future and in another galaxy, it’s like, okay, well, something happened, [shrug], we can react if we want to but we don’t have to worry about the consequences. DA has had the same problem that ME had, just to a lesser degree. DA:O did such a great job of building up the Warden that people are really attached to that and they keep wanting to see the Warden come back. People are never gonna let go of Shepard. DA, new player characters every time because it allows things to be done, but there are costs to that, if you don’t have nearly the [same] attachment. I mean, there’s a reason why every single Zelda game starts with you as Link getting bonked on the head. They’ve essentially solved the problem, reset button, either you have amnesia or you’re like the great-great-great-great-grandson. So it’s like, maybe there’s a way that they can do something like that, but Zelda’s jumped through a lot of hoops that probably a modern game can’t be allowed to do. You’re “Link”, so maybe there’s a way that you can be Shepard but, but Shepard, you can be “Shepard”, maybe there’s a way you can do that, but yeah, it’ll be interesting, it’s definitely a problem that they have. Because certainly, Ryder from ME:A is not the same character, nor could any character from a single game compete with a character from three games. Maybe the approach is, you canonize the choices from MET and you say, ‘and the choice we’re making is, Shepard made it, and you’re Shepard. [shrug]”

-

“I think there is a lot of DNA of its older games still at BioWare, but you’re right. Every game needs to be a game in its moment. It needs to be appropriate to the time and space of what’s going on. So, I get it, you kind of just want to feel the thing you felt when you played ME2 or feel the thing you felt when you played DA:O.” “If suddenly you got an ME2 again magically appearing out of the ether, I don’t think it would be received the same way. The industry isn’t in the same place. BioWare needs to set a new bar.” “The sad truth is, the older you get, the less relevant a part of the buying demographic you are. So the reality is, I mean ME:A had a shaky launch unfortunately, but it’s a lot of peoples’ favorite ME. Mostof those people who it is their favorite ME are younger people because it targets, you know, it’s got a younger PC, it’s got a stronger, more. I mean, the MET is very much, Shepard is a hero from action movies from the 80s and 90s, for millennials. He’s stoic. Whereas Ryder is definitely, he’s much more a protagonist from a CW show. The reality is is that, sorry, but they’re not trying to make it for you anymore.”

How would Vox, Alastor, and Mourningstar Lucifer handle their darling little baby having a nightmare? Their little has such a bad dream that they are nonverbal and won't let go of them or try to fall back asleep due to how scared she is.

Vox and Alasot are oddly enough very similar. They're not exactly sure what to say or do beyond the usual platitudes of "there, there, it's okay" and rubbing her back while holding her closely. Where they differ is how they might help them feel better after they've calmed down a little. Vox would opt for the visual with things like Captain Kangaroo, Romper Room, The Uncle Al Show, Howdy Doody, or newer things like Sesame Street. Or maybe a movie like The Wizard of Oz, Cinderella, Snow White and the Eeven Dwarves, Lady and the Tramp, basically anything Disney pre- 2000s era Like I said he's partial to the classics himself, specifically American classics, though if his Little has something they want to see that's newer he won't object I imagine he becomes a big fan of Studio Ghibli movies and other things, would love it if during the musical movies his Little busted out into song, would likely record it for personal viewing later since if he shares it with Velvette she will definitely post it.

Now Alastor on the other hand will either listen to old radio programs with you, different music and songs and such. He might even listen to newer (still pre 50s) radio shows like Buck Rogers, Dick Tracy, Flash Gordon, Lassie, Little Orphan Annie, and The Land of the Lost with them. He likes the stuff of his time sure, but honestly the radio shows only improved on the medium, unlike the trash of the newfangled hip poppy techno screeching malarkey of the modern era.

Both would sleep with them if prompted, or Vox would let them have Vark in your bed for the night if they asked. They would wait until their Little were in deep sleep to leave if they didn't ask for them to stay though.

Normal Lucifer and Mourningstar have pretty similar methods, however Mourningstar is much more concerned about his princess going nonverbal if this is the first time it's happened, what if his babygirl never speaks to him again?!

They both hold them close and sing little songs to them, either lullabies or just silly little rhymes they made up. When things were calmed down they'd ask if their Little wanted to talk now, but if not that was fine. They'd make a late night drink of hot chocolate to help further calm them down and lift their spirits. It'll be like their own little tradition.

How are you seriously going to send four different hate-filled anons about Ice Studios and Jess, claim you’re not a Jess stan, then go on to show you have no clue what you're talking about, only to turn around and accuse us of being scared to post your gaslighting nonsense (aka: meltdown) on the blog? Go start your own blog and post all your "evidence" there, because if you actually had any, you'd have shared it by now.

And by the way, Malarkey, gaslighting through asks doesn’t work when everyone can see what you said in the first place. Just because it wasn't posted doesn’t mean you can lie and say, "Omg, I didn’t even say that." Yeah, you did. You're just a toxic, delusional, parasocial fan so obsessed with Jess Moloney that you're trying to gaslight people online. You seriously need some help, but this blog isn't the place to get it.

[jess-moloney-malarkey]

what is Jess’s job if you’re going to say ‘celebrity manager’ who does she manage and prove it if you’re going to say she runs ice studios explain specifically what her job is and prove it she’s such a strong independent business woman that you obviously know everything about this should be an easy thing for you to answer

lol why do y'all think I believe Jess is this like, powerhouse champion of business acumen that I idolize or something, just because I said it's clear she has held jobs and worked for things? Here's my post where I looked into her career history: https://www.tumblr.com/jess-moloney-malarkey/733824835611967488/there-is-a-claim-that-jess-moloney-doesnt?source=share

To amend something I noted in it, though: personally, I do think it seems like she has a more a vested interest in Ice Studios, rather than an active executive role like Renell certainly has. Regardless, not knowing exactly what she does for a living right now doesn't mean in any way that she is an unsuitable partner for Jamie. She could drive for Uber for all we know, who cares? Jamie would know better than us, and he didn't seem to be bothered by whatever she does or doesn't do for work when he entered a relationship with her. So I'm not sure why it's such an issue.

This Saturday night (October 19th 2024 6pm BST) as part of our exhibition 'Apparition / Aberration / Your Mum'.

We will host a musical event/performance from artist Rebecca Lee (who records under the name Bredbeddle).

I realise not many people will be able to visit us, so we are live-streaming the event with a ticketing system whereby users get access to the recording for 1 week afterwards.

Would love it if people would help out and give a little to support our performer.

Failing that maybe sharing the post would be good.

On top of all of this I would say check Rebecca/Bredbeddle's work as it's very captivating.

Event is here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/bredbeddle-malarkey-tickets-1040592158157

Caesars Palace, NV (No. 6)

The casino houses multiple restaurants. Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill is an English pub, a type of restaurant Ramsay felt was "missing on the strip". The Nobu Restaurant is an Asian restaurant. The Old Homestead Steakhouse is the first west-coast location of a New York restaurant chain. Rao's opened in 2006, the second branch of the restaurant after New York City to open. Chef Brian Malarkey opened Searsucker Las Vegas – the fourth branch of the restaurant after San Diego, Del Mar, California, and Austin, Texas – in March 2015. The 7,500 square feet (700 m2) dining area has a "retro Americana" theme, with "cowboy culture" motifs reflected throughout the furnishings and paintings designed by Thomas Schoos. Sign billing Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen at Caesars Palace, 2021.

Beijing Noodle No. 9 is a Chinese restaurant with an overhead metal-cut white screen and large aquariums filled with goldfish are all backlit by LED bulbs. Serendipity 3 was a 1950s style diner, featuring burgers, fries and ice cream delicacies. The ice cream parlor themed restaurant, which was a branch of the New York City Serendipity 3 establishment, opened in 2009. In addition to seating in the dining area and counter seating, there was a patio with views of the Strip and the Caesars Palace fountains. It closed on January 2, 2017. Hell's Kitchen opened in its place in January 2018, and was originally planned to be used as the studio for the filming of the American television show Hell's Kitchen for Seasons 19 and 20, but with full bookings of customers to serve and a lack of cameras (and no dormitories for the contestants), shooting was instead moved to the Caesars Entertainment Studios property near the Las Vegas Strip. The major restaurant of the Augustus Tower is the Guy Savoy, namesake of the three-star Michelin chef. When Savoy was approached to open a second restaurant in Vegas, he initially said no, until Caesars told him they wanted him to recreate what he had done in Paris. His request was that to maintain quality, the restaurant must be limited to service five days a week, to which the management agreed. The restaurant opened in 2006 and in 2008, Savoy brought his executive chef from the Paris restaurant to Vegas. Interior of Payard Pâtisserie & Bistro with chocolate clock in foreground in 2013.

Under the direction of pastry chef and chocolatier François Payard, Payard Pâtisserie & Bistro at Caesars Palace encompasses a pastry shop, chocolate shop, and restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The interior of the 46-seat bistro was designed by the Rockwell Group. In 2008 the bistro installed a 16 feet (4.9 m) high "chocolate clock" that releases three chocolate truffles every quarter-hour.

Bredbeddle at studio MALARKEY

Bredbeddle (Rebecca Lee) live set performance.

Sunday 3rd November 2024.

Event was live-streamed and available to ticket holders for the following week.

Bredbeddle @MALARKEY is part of Apparition/Aberration/Your Mum, an exhibition of 22 international artists at Studio MALARKEY, a new central Northampton art space.

Studio MALARKEY is on the third floor of an historic building which unfortunately only has stair access. This is a hybrid in-person/live-streaming event. All tickets will include a link to access live-streaming and video of the event for a week.

[jmoloney1]

I see Malarkey decided to block me instead of address her contradictory behavior she was being called out on, with proof. Blocking makes it a lie doesn’t it.

Can’t even admit you were caught in lies huh? But you’re the “better” more “trustworthy” source of information aren’t you? Now you’re crying “harassment” because it’s okay when you do it to other people but when other people call you out then it’s “bullying” poor baby.
