wxs and n25 have really interesting story and dynamic parallels but no one seems to talk about it since its 1/2 3/4 and that means no yaoi

1 who gets too into their work -- to the detriment of their health -- and attaches their value to how close they are to their ultimate goal in life (which truly began because of an ailing family member) who for one reason or another takes it upon themselves to "save" something deeply important to 2's well-being and sense of self, something they are in danger of losing due to a struggle with their family.

3 who struggles with confidence in their main talent/passion and feels like they're stuck because of preexisting insecurity made worse by events we see only in flashback and how they're being supported by 4 who has issues trying to move on from the past and step into the future + fights w the existential dread of how their fun will end one day but is actually the first to try and break apart from the rest..

The real question I have about the United Healthcare/Mangione case is if the Monopoly theme is intentional and if he (or whoever the mastermind is) has read Barry Lyga’s “I Hunt Killers” trilogy-specifically the second book Game.

Futaba: Aoyagi, say you’re sorry to Carl-bot. Touya: Oh, I won’t do that. Apologizing is for the weak and wrong, which is why the bot should do it to me, because it is weak, and wrong.

chat would we be interested in hearing about my VERY loose ideas for pjsk fan events (mostly just titles, synopsis, cards, etc., nothing story-wise really)

(fan unit will be spawning eventually im. still working on them. darn 11 person unit!)

two crazy graphs

Looking at Citizen Voting Age Population (people who are eligible to vote in U.S. elections) the population is always going to grow because the population is showing.

But looking at the relative proportion of votes, Trump didn't actually gain from 2020 - he actually lost a tiny bit of relative base.

Harris lost a LOT of ground compared to Biden, but coincidentally got exactly the same (relative to CVAP) proportion as Clinton in 2016.

It seems unlikely that a 2020 Biden voter would have flipped to vote Trump in 2024, and it also seems unlikely that someone would register to vote for this election and then not actually vote. So it seems like this election was decided by democrats who decided to sit it out.

Of democrats that chose to sit it out there seems like there could be any of these four factors:

democrat voters who didn't vote because they thought she would be the clear winner (I thought that, but I still went out to vote but mostly because there was also local NYC stuff on the ballot);

democrat conscience voters who didn't vote on moral grounds (e.g. Harris support of Israel);

democrats that will not vote for a woman president (seems less plausible, but I think must be considered as a factor); or

democrats that didn't have moral objection, but just not excited enough about her vision

The big winner for 2024 is people who were registered to vote but didn't which at 30.1% is the highest it's been that I have data available to check against.

About 41% of Americans who were old enough to vote in this election did not vote which makes "no confidence/do not care/unable to vote" the largest block of American voters.

You know what absolutely puzzles me about WxS's writing, specifically now, is that right now we're in the downtime fun times before the main conflict starts being introduced.

HoWever, why is every fucking event with the exception of like Emu5 so obsessed with cutting down the lighthearted mood with like suprisingly dark topics ?

Like I swear no other unit does this, usually when dark topics are introduced it's usually to fit the mood of the event and is meant to be tackled.

But like lemme list the 3 WxS event out of 4 in this arc that does this shit :

-Tsukasa4 -> Play literally is about a dude who wants to commit suicide by jumping into a river/the sea

-Rui4 -> This event is wack in general but the script of the entire script of that movie is like surprisingly messed up (depressed dude with implied suicidal ideation, and his sister who has a terminal illness who attempts to leave him so that he doesn't feel bad when she Dies)

-Tsukasa5 -> Buff dude (ik he has a name I just don't care) reveals that, in the past, he injured himself so badly that he is now completely unable to achieve his life long dream and also says about how had a deppressive period after the fact where he felt like he had no goal in life (depending on the translation there is possible implications of suicidal ideation but it's the same as Rui4 as it could just be a depression thing)

It's like so Weird, I haven't seen any other unit do this even in darker events. Like you guys know that this means that canonically the only unit that has had a descriptive mention of suicide (where the method is stated) is WxS right ?

Brother I thought this was silly fun time unit (if you ignore the periods of pain and misery) why the fuck is there like mentions of dark topics that not even other units tackle at times.

There are times where I do think certain units kinda do the same thing, VBS for exemple is a unit with Souma's backstory being similar to these sudden "oh..." moments. But the fact I even have to mention VBS, aka the unit with the most focus on side characters shows how strange this is.

I'm sure there are other examples but it just, still feels so incredibly strange.

It feels cheap to 0 in on the dark side of WxS but I probably wouldnt be doing that if it didn't so blatantly stand out in the writing.

It's not in a bad way but it is very much giving a strange vibe
