franco's engineer begging him to stop going to williams by bus 😭

last week franco said he thinks it's really silly to send him a car just for a 10 minute ride when he can easily take a bus and have a pretty cool view on the upper deck

NSFW content! Old and stale porn meme with a twist. GN Reader, monster shenanigans.

Y’all…Fake Taxi but monster edition. You hop in the cab to go home and end up fucked raw by a bunch of beastly creatures.

They do drive you as intended, eventually. You don’t even have to pay. But you have to come up with a reason as to why you’re limping like that and why you can’t sit without wincing for weeks. At least your friends and family haven’t seen the unholy claw marks left on your back. To the monsters’ defense, you asked for it halfway through.

Was it a terrifying experience? Maybe. Did you remember the car plate in order to ask for their service again? Definitely.

In the past, people in the Animal Crossing community would make fun of Tom Nook as a sleazy landlord. Since then, he's really rehabilitated his image as this 'heart of gold' businessman (he's the one who puts bells and furniture in trees for you to find! he adopted orphans! he donates to charity!), but New Horizons genuinely paints the most devious version of him.

He's successfully privatized settler colonialism: you pay HIM to move to a "deserted island" (which apparently the oceans in the AC world are just full of) and start a colony that he is directly invested in. At best he's running a weird vacation package scam (you arrive on the island with no money and in debt for "using his services"). At worst, he's using you to set up company towns. For god's sake, he literally has his own fake currency that he forces you to use to pay off your debt. But don't worry, he's repackaged it in a way that definitely doesn't sound like an MLM scam: the Nook Mileage Program!

You're no longer just his tenant or his temporary part-timer, you're his business lackey. The entire tutorial section of the game has you spending actual weeks running around completing tasks and doing hard labor to set up his colony. You're even tasked with preparing his properties and finding buyers for them. No, you aren't a tenant anymore. You work for the landlord. You are directly responsible for finding tenants for him. And he doesn't even fucking pay you. Not for setting up town hall and museum, or his nephew's shop –– which is the ONLY store on the entire island that sells necessities –– or bringing KK Slider to town, or helping populate his town. Not a single cent. No, actually, you have to pay HIM to BUY infrastructure like bridges and stairs and park benches. And all the while, he's telling you're the "resident representative"; you get to call the shots! That the reward is the community's progress. That what you're doing is in everyone's best interest (but most importantly, his).

Since NH's release, people have done a lot of legwork to say that Tom Nook isn't a capitalist while the game shows him at his very worst. He owns the only general store in town. You're forced to use a phone that he modified and branded as his own. Buy Nook-branded furniture and merchandise at the self-serve kiosk in the town hall, a governmental building! There's no conflict of interest here!

But hey, if you're tired of being the landlord/business mogul's goon, you can also find work as a deluxe resort home designer for a company that also pays you in their special company currency that can only be used to buy their products instead of a real salary! Because that's what the Animal Crossing franchise needs! More vacation homes!!!

Taxi Driver (1976) dir. Martin Scorsese

[kropotkindersurprise]

Long live the Amsterdam taxi drivers (mostly morrocan and turkish background) who came out tonight and drove around the empty industrial estate, where we were dumped by the cops, to give free rides to the hundreds of scattered Palestine protesters!

The protesters were detained en masse at the banned pro-Palestine demonstration on the Dam, and were dropped off in the middle of nowhere by the Amsterdam riot police to be chased and beaten, away from the media.

More and and more taxis kept showing up, sometimes flying Palestinian flags, to big cheers and applause from the protesters each time. They were praising us as they drove up but they were the real heroes of today and this whole week. Remember these taxi drivers started handing out the beatings to the far-right zionist Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans about a week ago. They really restored our hope after the fascist gaslighting spectacle being played out by the entire Dutch political and media class this past week.

help me escape homelessness and live with my lover!

If you can't help me with donations, reblogs are always appreciated!

Also I have hella bad waiting mode anxiety that is made better by knowing what to expect after what I'm waiting for happens, so if anybody wants to tell me how this process will go, I would greatly appreciate it.

Bonus points if you give me some ideas in the notes of mundane things to do with my wife!
