Unless the third mob ends up being an insect or arachnid I'm super excited for, if the crab loses the Minecraft mob vote I will sob and cry

#I'm so scared for this vote because the crab claw tool seems so cool but #People tend have Mammal Favoritism #We need more arthropods!!!!!!! #there's a literal enchantment called Bane Of Arthropods and there are only 4 arthropods #TECHNICALLY you could say there's 5 but cave spiders are barely even distinct #only 3 of those are ones you have a reason to fight! Bees are neutral! #and 1 of those is something I don't think I've ever actually seen in survival? #Ender mites seem to hardly be there #and silverfish are only found in a rare structure!!! #so you're likely to see 2 different arthropods max any time you boot up the game #Minecraft #Wasp House Buzzing

I love people disparaging the reading comprehension of this website, for shortening the WGA's tentative deal to snappy "The strike is over!" headlines

Babe, that isnt poor reading skills, that is marketing speak. Everyone does this.

#I am waiting for new rules to be passed for my business category here in Brazil #and EVERY headline is like #'NEW RULES APPROVED!!!!!' #and it never fucking is. #It's always 'Well now so-and-so have to vote it :)' #snappy attention grabbing headlines are the bane of humanity it isnt a Tumblr thing

After some additional research, I moved the timeline of "It's Not The Sky I'm Asking For" about a decade (from 1850s to 1860s) to better fit the time period i actually thought i was referencing

But unfortunately that SIGNIFICANTLY changes the expected travel time from the east coast to the west coast, because of how much railroad expansion was happening at that time

And now idk if i'd rather rethink my expectations about culture/dress, or rework the timeline to fit more period accurate travel times, or just ignore it (bc really is anyone but me going to care that the travel actually should have taken 4-6 weeks rather than the ~5 months I was originally planning around?)

#this is why research is the bane of my creative endeavors #its already an Omegaverse AU #and going to be taking several steps away from real history wrt certain race related topics #i could just say this is an au where the train routes arent as advanced as they were really #perhaps as a result of not having the same access to highly exploited non white workers among other things #but #I also want the completion of the transcontinental railroad to be a plot point in this story #and dont want to push that back too much #am i overthinking this? #definitely #can i stop? #absolutely not #ghost.txt #rambling in tags #fic: it's not the sky i'm asking for #i know i should be working on poll votes #but this fic has me in its grip rn and im not gonna fight it #thoughts/comments/opinions welcome

One thing that caught my attention while watching The Phantom Menace in the theater, a movie I didn't expect to find anything new with after how many times I've seen it and analyzed it, was that Sidious mentions multiple times that he has to change his plans to fit the new circumstances. It got me to thinking about how Palpatine gets credit for his carefully crafted plans, but often times not for how flexible he is in changing them on the fly, especially in time travel fics where someone destroys one of his plans and that's the end of it. Which, I'm not advocating against, I love a good Take That Wrinkled Walnut The Fuck Down However You Gotta Do It fic and I don't want them to change! But in canon Palpatine makes note of things he's not expecting, like:

When Valorum sends the Jedi as ambassadors, it's not part of Sidious' plan: DAULTAY DOFINE: This scheme of yours has failed, Lord Sidious. The blockade is finished. We dare not go against the Jedi. DARTH SIDIOUS: Viceroy, I don't want this stunted slime in my sight again! This turn of events is unfortunate. We must accelerate our plans. Begin landing your troops. NUTE GUNRAY: My lord, is that… legal? DARTH SIDIOUS: I will make it legal. NUTE GUNRAY: And the Jedi? DARTH SIDIOUS: The Chancellor should never have brought them into this. Kill them immediately!

On the Trade Federation ship, after Queen Amidala has disappeared from Naboo, Palpatine originally planned that she would be forced to sign the treaty, and then brings in Maul to deal with this. DARTH SIDIOUS: And Queen Amidala, has she signed the treaty? NUTE GUNRAY: She has disappeared, My Lord. One Naboo cruiser got pat the blockade. DARTH SIDIOUS: I want that treaty signed. NUTE GUNRAY: My Lord, it's impossible to locate the ship. It's out of our range. DARTH SIDIOUS: Not for a Sith. This is my apprentice. Darth Maul. He will find your lost ship.

On Naboo, after Padme allies with the Gungans: NUTE GUNRAY: We've sent out patrols. We've already located their starship in the swamp....It won't be long, My Lord. DARTH SIDIOUS: This is an unexpected move for her. It's too aggressive. Lord Maul, be mindful. MAUL: Yes, my Master. DARTH SIDIOUS: Be patient... Let them make the first move.

Palpatine's plans aren't static, they adapt and change with the events that happen, just as the other characters react to new information and head in new directions for it, so too does Palpatine and I think it's interesting to note that part of what makes him such a good villain is that he has an outline for what he wants to do, he sets up the dominoes of what he needs, but even when they don't fall precisely into place, he generally gets what he wants. He originally intended that Padme would sign the treaty, the Jedi wouldn't be involved, and that would lead to a vote of No Confidence to oust Valorum, using the sympathy for Naboo as a way to boost himself into the position. But he didn't really need her to sign it and still managed to use the sympathy for Naboo to get elected, it ultimately didn't matter what happened to the planet, so long as it was in danger while he needed it to be, he could use it either way. Nor, honestly, do I think he ever planned for Anakin Skywalker's existence, he had no idea they would find such a boy on Tatooine or how useful he was going to be, that was another way he changed his plans once the opportunity arose. Or a lot of his plots in TCW--he has Cad Bane steal the list of Force-sensitive children and kidnap them, bringing them to Mustafar for some sort of program to use them probably not too unlike how he uses the Inquisitors later. That plan is foiled by the Jedi, the babies are returned to their families, and Sidious' plans fall through, but that doesn't really change the outcome. tl:dr: I don't think Palpatine gets enough credit as a villain whose plans shift and change along with the new events that happen, just as much as the heroes' plans shift and change when new things happen. Yeah, he's a great villain because he creates an impossible trap for people, but also because the thing about him is that he's incredibly charming and charismatic and he knows an opportunity when he sees one, that any one given plan might fall through, but it's not necessary to his overall plot.
