Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Consider. Kallus overworking himself and not eating not because he feels unworthy or the need to be useful. But he has adhd and without the structure the Empire had he’s got no idea what time it is and won’t realize until 5pm that he forgot to eat all day.

[yourcousin-vinny]

Kallus not only getting kinda chubby when he joins the Rebellion but putting on some more muscle too bc he’s eating better overall. Imperials who knew him being smug bc they’ve been made to believe there’s a specific way people should look and Kal no longer fits that so they just gloat and write him off

Until he completely destroys them bc he hits so much harder than before

I feel like Kallus had a mental breakdown when he realized the Rebels were just faking it till they made it, make the plan execute the plan expect that plan to go off the rails throw away the plan. Because… he was losing to them??

His whole time as Fulcrum probably flashed before his eyes because he probably had all this confidence from being able to keep up with those crafty rebels. Only to realize, they were not crafty, they were just incredibly lucky and he was not as good as he thought he was.

“How did I not get found out sooner?” - Kallus, probably

Kallus got trained to build up a resistance to common poisons. Obviously this was achieved by him drinking small amounts of the poisons. The issue? He developed a taste for it and now - to everyone's great concern - refers to them as "the forbidden juice"

So you found a dead body in the woods

The worst thing you've worried about, going on hikes, happens. This happens often, in the grand scheme of things. It's always joggers and dogwalkers and hikers. My unlucky day came on October 24, 2022.

So what do you do when you find a dead body?

Look in the other direction and take a breath. Panic wont help you or them.

If you are comfortable, approach them and try to help. If not, it's okay. I was unwilling to approach (they looked real dead) and my 911 operator was 100% totally supportive and okay with that.

Walk a little ways away. There is no reason why you need to keep staring at them. It's okay. Seeing a dead person is really wack!

When you've caught your breath, call 911. My first thought was "Oh god, I don't want to talk to cops." and, good news, it's not cops! 911 responders are different people. They are trained to talk to you, to reassure you, and to help you. They are there for you. They understand you are freaking out. They are kind and patient.

Your new buddy, the 911 person, will help you figure out where you are, exactly. They have access to your location via cell-tower and GPS, but if, like me, you were off-trail (oops), they might need your help navigating to you. I offered to also send a photo, and he provided an email, which he received immediately. I deleted the photo I took right away.

Hang out on the phone with your dispatch friend. They're going to want to keep in touch with you as the paramedics approach. Are you freaking out by chattering too much? Are you freaking out by being dead silent? Both are okay! Apparently, my panic response is to become Super Midwestern Chatty. I was able to make him laugh, which I count as a win.

Holler to the paramedics. My paramedics came deep into the ravine-filled woods, about six men, steering a rolling bed thing. We shouted at each other until they made it to the body. It would have been funny, watching them fumble along, if it wasn't so serious.

Get out of there! The paramedics don't need anything from you. They're busy doing their job. They shooed me back to the trail and to the parking lot. I didn't have to go anywhere near the body.

Meet cops in the parking lot. In my situation, the cops didn't want anything from me. They were just picking their noses in the parking lot while the paramedics did the real work. The cops said thanks for helping, while covering their bodycams, because they're pigs.

Go eat donuts. Christ, that was a lot. Let yourself comedown and get some sugar to kickstart your system.

Feel good that you gave a family closure. Yeah, that sucked. Yeah, your therapist is going to hear about this. Yeah, next time you come to this location, you're going to need a friend with you. But you did the right thing. You'll never know their family, but know that you gave them closure.

Kallus being like U know what a bitch is tired of losing to a spraypainted teenage Mandalorian obsessed with explosives, a cringefail father figure with low self-esteem, a hotshot pilot with daddy issues and a murderous old junker of a droid/bestie, a scrappy blueberry child with sixty different aliases, and a lavender cat man who has a case of resting bitch face SO HE JUST JOINS THEM. congrats guys u have added a gayass ex-Imperial with muttonchops to your motley crew simply by being annoying.

Kanera for the heart

[yourcousin-vinny]

just...thinking about how zeb was picked up by kanan and hera, two kids (basically), one of whom was also a survivor of genocide, and another whose species has been persecuted, enslaved, etc. repeatedly, and they helped him. zeb, who hadn't seen young people of his own species in so long, and as an older being, he's probably unsure of his place in the galaxy after what happened on Lasan, and having young people trust in him, look up to him, rely on him, that probably made zeb feel so needed and wanted. like, they're experienced and confident, and far wiser and more mature than maybe someone their age ought to be, because of what they've gone through. so he probably doesn't think he can teach them much.

and like zeb knows they're young; but just thinking about when that really hit him, how young they are. and how he probably vowed to look out for them, as much as they look out for him. like, thinking about how much fear he probably had in calling any place home again, after what happened to his last home. but these two young adults gave him a home, a safe place to land; they gave him their friendship and gave him a little found family to call his own after everyone he lost. and he's happy and proud to belong to a family again.
