A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU

***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***

Blacked out part is my name.

I’m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too

AND

I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.

And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.

A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am

Making Business Travel Easy

Traveling for business can be stressful and sometimes even uncomfortable, but taking a few simple steps can make the whole experience much easier and more pleasant for frequent business travellers.

Be Clear on the Company’s Travel Policy

Before doing anything else, it’s important for the business traveller to be familiar with their company’s procedures and rules relating to corporate travel. This includes things like who needs to approve the trip, expenses that can be claimed and how the refund process works.

Packing for Business Travel

It’s a good idea to only use carry-on bags and to pack light. Packing dress shirts in plastic garment bags will help keep them wrinkle-free in the suitcase, and taking along some casual clothing is advisable to make the most of any opportunities to explore the destination. Add some items to help with sleep too, such as an eye mask, pillow or headphones.

When packing, keep security checkpoints in mind; for example, electronics and liquids should be easily accessible. Make the most of packing cubes to get everything organised; each could hold a different day’s outfit or certain type of garments, like casual or gym wear.

Opt for Non-Stop Flights

While it may be tempting to break up a long flight with a layover, it’s usually best to book a non-stop flight to avoid lengthening a trip more than necessary. Exercise may help to counter the effects of jet lag. Exercising in the early morning or late afternoon can push your circadian rhythm back to an earlier time, while exercising in the evening can bring it forward.

Be Aware of Etiquette

Regular business travellers like entrepreneur Rob Tolley, former London broker, know that researching the country being travelled to allows you to find out about local etiquette, including etiquette relating to business. For example, while eye contact and handshakes are normal in the West, greetings in Asian countries often prioritise hierarchy and age. Similarly, business meetings in Mexico tend to be conducted over lunch, while Finnish business people regularly gather in a sauna to promote creativity and an open approach.

Make the Most of Airport Lounges

Frequent travellers such as Rob Tolley realise that airport lounges often offer a comfortable space in which to either relax or work. Wi-Fi connections, electrical outlets, food, drink, showers and even spa facilities can usually be found, presenting the opportunity to catch up on last-minute work tasks or take a break.

Store Receipts Properly

In order to be able to claim refunds for business expenses, receipts need to be kept and stored. Bring along an envelope or folder specifically to keep them in. It’s also a good idea to take a photo of every receipt, just in case any go missing.

Serious question.

Do you think we’ll see the parents/family of each of the guys???

Like, We’ve been TEASED with Ace’s brother, that I’m starting to think it’s just a reference to that Alice in Wonderland park character in Japan and nothing else….

Jack’s family, Ruggie’s grandma, Falena, Maleficia, Ms.Rosehearts, Just now Vil’s dad is in the picture which I am really happy but now I’m wondering about his mom, and so Deuce’s mom.

I mean, some HAVE a silhouette!! It could mean they do have a design in the making/ready to show. They could’ve shown us Falena in the Tamashina (hope I said that correctly) event, but didn’t (prolly to make Leona not so σ(▼□▼メ) and it’s understandable)

Anyhow, any idea/headcannon about this? Who do you want to see first?

I'm wondering if everyone might eventually get a travel event? like they've now introduced with Vil's that it doesn't have to be specifically hometowns, so that opens things up a lot! (especially if they have to figure out how to do three separate Coral Sea visits) (how would that even work otherwise)

but yeah, I hope everyone gets a chance! there's a lot of backstory characters I would LOVE to meet. :D :D :D though I do think some of them don't really suit the more light-hearted tone of the events (pretty sure you're right about that being why Falena wasn't in Tamashina-Mina, that would've just been. too much for Leona.) so like...we're probably not ever going to meet the Rosehearts. or Maleficia (although I maintain that this would be THE funniest possible way to introduce her outside of the main story, and actually I would love this a lot, can we please Twst) (I need to see her to put Malleus in a froofy little outfit and tell him what a handsome boy he is). but they've sprung surprises like Kifaji on us, and honestly anyone who shows up and tells embarrassing stories about characters' childhoods is good in my book!

characters off the top of my head who I most want to meet: literally any of the Zigvolts, Azul's mom, Ace's brother, Che'nya's grandfather (<- I think he would be a good one for Riddle) (please just any non-terrible adult in his life), any member of Rook's family because I need to see how they managed to produce him, and...really just whoever they can come up with for Silver.

The dynamics between Dan, Danny and Ellie are so funny to consider. Danny is far too used to handling Sam and Tucker at their worst and now he has an additional gremlin duo who picked up whatever madness was in Vlad's system when he decided cloning was a great idea. (Danny is highly aware that it is not a good thing to have more him in the world and has resolved to better avoid clone plots). Meanwhile Dan and Ellie will fight over the most random, inane things, but the minute it's about family they band together into a proper terror and the only beings able to stop them are Jazz in her disappointment if the situation calls for it, and sleep deprived Danny who does not realize his exhausted presence is like a terrifying parental figure catching their kid doing something stupid.

It gets even funnier when Jazz finally breaks out of the mindset that she needs to be in charge and instead enjoys herself, and so the only leash for the three most feral Fentons (honorary and named) is a perpetually tired teen/young adult.

Now drop that in Gotham.

Happy Paperback Publication Day to @jonnywaistcoat and FAMILY BUSINESS!

DEATH. IT’S A DIRTY BUSINESS. When Diya Burman’s best friend Angie dies, it feels like her own life is falling apart. Wanting a fresh start, she joins Slough & Sons – a family firm that cleans up after the recently deceased. Old love letters. Porcelain dolls. Broken trinkets. Clearing away the remnants of other people’s lives, Diya begins to see things. Horrible things. Things that get harder and harder to write off as merely her grieving imagination. All is not as it seems with the Slough family. Why won’t they speak about their own recent loss? And who is the strange man that keeps turning up at their jobs? If Diya’s not careful, she might just end up getting buried under the family tree. . .

'A triumph, thriving on relatable fears, hyper-realistic dirty homes, and understandable grief' - Fantasy Hive

'It completely blew me away' - FanFi Addict

'Don't read by yourself in a strange hotel room if you want to come out psychologically unscathed' - Me, specifically, learning lessons the hard way so that other people don't have to.

If you want a book that will:

Make you twitch at strange shapes outside the windows as the nights get darker

Break you in the smallest ways with the simplest observations of the meaning of humanity and love

Give you new and exciting things to be scared of that actually, on reflection, had probably always been lurking in the depths of your psyche just waiting to be called up

FAMILY BUSINESS is the book you want to grab.
