meet sydney wilder, gen 1 of my new gameplay~

i'm kicking off a new playthrough of the whimsy legacy expanded by @lysiablr , starting at gen 3 just to spice things up!

very long overview and premise of this gens details under the cut if you wanna know what's goin on

premise

Sometimes life brings you a little bundle of joy in the shape of an accident. As soon as you're of age - after whirlwind teenage years of partying, skipping classes, and turning in homework late - you become a mixologist at the local bar. You are a clumsy Sim who fears the sound of commitment, but loves to have a good time. You enjoy dating new and exciting Sims, but you never, ever commit to anything too serious. You love your job, and you love that you don’t have to show up for anyone. Period. If you don’t have to show up for anyone, then you can’t disappoint them, right? One morning, after a rough night of partying and a whole lot of bubble blowing and juice, you wake up feeling... off. There's something that just isn't right, and you just can't shake it. You’re tired, you’re feeling ill, and food sounds absolutely revolting. ... It can't be. But it is. One pregnancy test later, and sure enough, the lines clearly fade into view. You're about to be a parent. After the initial wave of fear, you regain your senses, heart filling with warmth at the idea of no longer being alone. While having children was hardly the first thing on your mind, you can’t say you'd totally ruled out having a few later in life. Turns out later is right now. But... who is the parent? All at once, you recall the night before, and realize that there are three different possibilities. The catch is, you won’t know the answer for sure until the baby is here. Is that too late? Will you confront your partner when you find out, jump in with them and co-parent, lie and tell a different partner the child is theirs, or will you go it alone?

starting info

Voulez-Vous During the first half of your young adulthood, complete the 'try for baby' interaction with three different Sims in one night. Do not test for pregnancy at all; wait until the next couple of days and see if your Sim experiences any symptoms of pregnancy. If not, do it all over again. If your Sim cannot get pregnant, first check all three partners for pregnancy; if none are pregnant, try again OR randomly select one of your partners to have a science baby with three to seven days after the one-night stand, as if a baby was dropped off at their doorstep by an unknown partner.

When All is Said and Done Choose whether to parent the child alone, confront the correct partner, or approach a different partner to claim that the child was theirs.

Frutiger Aero

Coined by Sofi Lee of the Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute in 2017, Frutiger Aero is a design trend seen in mostly software UI, but also advertising and general design. This movement is thought to have started around the early to mid 2000's and faded out of mainstream use around 2013, along with the introduction of the 'Flat Design' movement.

Notable design motifs that distinguish Frutiger Aero is in its visual contrast with nature (usually being wildlife, water, grass and plant life, earth and blue skies) and futuristic technology (shown through a heavy use of glossy, chrome visuals as well as colossal skyscrapers and computers). As well as this, skeuomorphism is heavily associated with the Frutiger Aero design movement, due to it being used in icon and UI design in software within this movement. For example Microsoft Longhorn, the initial build of Windows Vista, is considered one of the earliest examples of use of the Frutiger Aero movement as well as one of the first displaying this distinctive style of UI skeuomorphism, linking the two movements heavily together at inception. As well as this, both share themes of humanism and familiarity, this is through how Frutiger Aero shows familiar sights such as modern infrastructure and wildlife as to make software and advertising look hopeful and comforting, this is the same for skeuomorphism as it designs unfamiliar UI in a way that looks familiar by visual comparisons to real life widely-used objects and tools.

This is believed that this movement had been spawned due to growing fears of global warming that began to be widely known and rational concern during the time of this design movement's inception. This began to loosen consumers trust in companies due to their harm to the environment and carbon footprint. With this design movement, it is used in a way to convey an idealistic and hopeful utopian future, showing modern and futuristic technology existing alongside nature peacefully, showing an idealistic eco-friendly future and ensuring consumer trust in companies and the future.

I personally have mixed feelings on this design movement. On one hand, I have a lot of love for this visual style as it was prevalent when I was growing up, making it really nostalgic. I also think this style has a lot of charm in how fun and hopeful its mood is and it's a feeling and style I would love to experiment and try in the future. On the other hand, I feel like the motives behind this design movement are really deceitful in how it presents this eco-friendly utopian facade, yet the companies behind them made and continue to make no effort to actually help the environment. It makes a false sense of security with companies when they don't have your best intention in mind, this is common to pretty much every large company but the effort of making your visual style encompass a happy hopeful nature-filled future when doing nothing to actually ensure that it becomes a reality feels especially scummy.

Nuvali🍃

EP 7 🎬

Recently, we visited Nuvali again for nth time, and my experience was incredible. The lush greenery and stunning lakes took my breath away, and I was always mesmerized by the beauty of the surroundings. walking around the area and enjoying the fresh air made me feel alive. Visiting an eco-friendly park in a city is a unique and fulfilling experience. The park is designed with sustainability in mind, promoting green spaces, recycling, and conservation initiatives. It provides a beautiful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, with plenty of trees, flowers, and water features to enjoy. Additionally, there are often outdoor activities and events hosted at the park that focus on education and environmental awareness. It's a place to relax, unwind, and connect with nature while learning about the importance of preserving our planet's resources.

NUVALI’s vast topography is surrounded by flourishing local communities, shops (Vista Mall, Ayala Malls Solenad, S&R, Landmark, and Landers), schools (DLSU Canlubang, Miriam College, Xavier University, etc.), sports centers, and hospitals. The food options available in the area were top-notch including Sam’s HK Restaurant especially their Lemon glazed chicken and braised beef, and I enjoyed a delightful meal with my family.

After we had our dinner, we had an incredible experience attending a mini concert of ‘’The Bloomfields’’ at the Vista mall. The atmosphere was electric as the artist took the stage and began to perform the timeless songs of a well known band ‘’The Beatles’’. The crowd was mesmerized, and I could feel the energy in the air. The sound quality was impressive, and so was the artist's performance. They were truly skilled and talented. It was a unique opportunity to see live music in the mall, and I'm so glad I went. Overall, Nuvali provided a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, and I cannot wait to return again for another unforgettable experience.

Is It More Expensive to Live Sustainably? Debunking the Myth

Are you curious about the cost of sustainable living? Let's set the record straight and explore whether living sustainably is genuinely more expensive. With rising cost of living and concerns about the environment and climate change, it's crucial to understand the financial implications of adopting a sustainable lifestyle. This article breaks down the myth and offers practical insights for you.

Initial Costs - Sustainable Products

Investing in Sustainable Products:

A crucial part of eco-living is investing in green products. These give long-term benefits. Opt for sustainable options like reverse osmosis water filters, rain collection systems, or a worm composter to reduce your environmental impact.

Initial costs may be higher than conventional ones. But, you'll save money in the long run - sometimes, even over generations.

Sustainable living helps preserve resources and also teaches us responsibility towards future generations. Analyze the costs and benefits before making decisions that reflect your values.

Rachael was initially put off by the cost of eco-friendly products. But, after installing rainwater harvesting and a reverse osmosis filter, she saw a significant reduction in her water and grocery bills. The initial investment soon paid off, and she inspired others to go green.

Energy Efficiency - Cost-Saving Potential

Energy and Cost Saving Potential

Energy efficiency is great for the environment and your wallet too! Using local resources avoids transport costs and cuts down on carbon emissions. Plus, growing food makes use of organic waste which would otherwise end up in landfills.

Want to save money? Start with energy-efficient practices! Not only will you be helping the planet, but you'll also benefit from some economic gains. Don't miss this chance to make a positive change! And if you're looking to save on your water bill, just tell your plants they need to start chipping in!

Water Conservation - Saving on Consumption

Maximizing Efficiency!

Water is essential. Conserving it helps the environment and saves money. Here are five ways to save on water consumption:

Invest in rainwater collection systems. Utilize rainwater for growing plants, reducing reliance on municipal supply.

Upgrade to efficient fixtures. Installing low-flow toilets, aerated faucets, and showerheads will decrease water usage while maintaining performance.

Maintain a well-maintained landscape. Proper irrigation techniques like drip irrigation or smart sprinkler systems ensure efficient water distribution and reduce waste.

Address leaks promptly. Plumbing leaks can waste gallons of water daily. Fix these issues to save water and lower utility bills.

Utilize reverse osmosis filters. Don't buy bottled water. Install reverse osmosis filters in your home for clean drinking water and to reduce plastic waste.

By taking these steps, households can minimize their water consumption and benefit financially. Small steps towards conservation are crucial for sustainability.

13-Step Reverse Osmosis Filter

Water Conservation - Making a Difference!

Changing our habits and adopting sustainable practices can have a big impact. Conserving water not only saves money but also helps address broader environmental problems such as droughts and freshwater shortages.

True History:

People sought out an environmentally friendly alternative to bottled water. Reverse osmosis filters became popular. This raised awareness of the need to maximize efficiency. People started using rainwater collection systems and upgraded fixtures. As people saw how their actions could save money and benefit the environment, sustainable living gained more followers.

Drive a sustainable car and laugh maniacally while passing gas stations - you'll make up for the cost in no time!

Sustainable Transportation - Long-Term Benefits

Sustainable Transportation Offers Long-Term Advantages

Furthermore, these benefits go beyond the scope of paragraph 2. Sustainable transport reduces congestion, increases road safety, and encourages social connection. It also conserves natural resources by reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

To further support sustainability:

Offer incentives for electric vehicles, like tax breaks or subsidies.

Develop reliable public transit with affordable fares and routes.

Implement bike lanes and secure parking.

Encourage carpooling programs.

Urban planning strategies that embrace sustainable transportation can benefit communities worldwide. They help minimize environmental harm and foster economic growth, while also providing a better quality of life.

Home Gardening - Growing Your Own Food

Growing produce at home has plenty of advantages! Here are five key points:

Self-sufficiency: You can provide fresh & nutritious food for yourself and family.

Cost savings: No need to buy fruits & veggies from stores.

Sustainability: Uses local resources and supports the local ecosystem.

Taste & quality: Home-grown produce often has better taste & quality.

Physical activity: Gardening provides physical exercise outside.

Plus, you have control over pesticide usage, can practice organic practices, & feel great about successful harvests!

This timeless tradition allows us to connect with food sources & embrace sustainable living.

Waste Reduction - Reducing Costs

Cutting down on waste makes the environment happier and our wallets thicker! Implementing waste reduction strategies can lead to big savings.

Growing our own food is much cheaper and healthier than buying from the store. Plus, it's pesticide-free and produces no plastic waste!

Steer clear of single-use plastic packaging and opt for bulk items or reusable containers instead. This will save a lot of money in the long run.

Don't let food go bad and end up as waste! Repurpose leftovers and feed them to chickens, fish, or black soldier fly larvae. This is a great way to get protein-rich feed or fertilizer.

Waste reduction is a win-win for both the environment and your financials. So go green and save green! Looking for a mortgage that won't leave you green with envy? Sustainable housing: where going green means saving green.

Sustainable Housing - Long-Term Savings

Sustainable housing has immense economic advantages over conventional options. Three major cost-saving points are:

Energy efficiency: Sustainable houses use technologies and design features to reduce energy usage, meaning lower bills.

Maintenance costs: Durable materials used in sustainable homes require less repair or replacement, resulting in long-term savings.

Water conservation: Rainwater harvesting and greywater recycling systems decrease water usage, lowering monthly expenses.

Living sustainably also brings added benefits like cleaner air due to plants filtering it and better mental health. Osmosis filters can also boost IQ and physical strength for adults and kids. Reject water for toilet flushing and dishwashing helps conserve resources effectively.

Studies show that people who switch to sustainable homes save significantly on utility and maintenance costs, showing its practicality and cost-saving potential. Furthermore, supporting local businesses is good for the economy and your conscience - it's a great way to 'go green' while you grab your favorite coffee!

Local Economy - Support for Businesses

Supporting local businesses is key for the local economy's growth and sustainability. By shopping at local stores, people help the community overall. It:

- keeps money in the area, assisting small business owners and giving job opportunities.

- encourages entrepreneurship with a platform for individuals to start and develop ventures.

- strengthens community engagement with events and initiatives that unite people.

- adds character with unique products and services that reflect the regional culture.

- reduces transportation emissions from long-distance shipping.

Not everyone can grow enough food, but local meat and veg offer a sustainable option. Wild-caught fish or game, or even eating invasive species, are also sustainable. Supporting local businesses not only boosts the economy but also brings communities together, preserves cultural identity, and contributes to environmental sustainability.

To keep supporting local:

Shop at farmers' markets for direct, fresh produce from local farmers.

Buy from local artisans to promote craftsmanship and support small-scale manufacturers.

Eat at independent restaurants to experience unique flavors and support local culinary talent.

Spread the word on social media or by word-of-mouth about positive experiences.

We can all help build a sustainable, resilient, and thriving local economy by supporting local businesses. Reusing empty coffee cups and grounds as flower pots is an easy, eco-friendly way to say, 'I don't need caffeine to survive; plants do!'

Aquaponics home system

Eco-Friendly Habits - Everyday Savings

Reduce energy consumption with energy-efficient appliances and save habits. Turn off lights when not in use, and you'll see lower bills. Cut water usage by fixing leaks and using low-flow devices. This can result in reduced water bills and help conserve resources.

Sustainable transport like walking, cycling, or carpooling can save money on fuel costs, parking fees, and maintenance expenses. Waste reduction with composting, recycling, and minimal packaging can reduce waste disposal costs and environmental impact.

Growing your own food with aquaponics or osmosis filters may require an initial investment, but the long-term harvests will reduce grocery bills. Simple lifestyle changes, like reducing meat consumption, shopping secondhand, or using cloth napkins, can lead to significant savings over time.

These everyday sustainable habits promote a greener lifestyle and offer economic benefits. Take small steps - focus on one change at a time for better sustainability outcomes. Going green gives financial incentives and will make your bank account sustainably flush!

Green Investments - Financial Incentives

Take a look at the financial incentives for green investments in the table below:

Green Investments Table for Financial Incentives

These incentives let you help the environment and get financial benefits. Don't trust big companies' eco-friendly slogans. Grow your own food for transparency and healthy eating.

For example, Sarah turned her backyard into an organic farm. She saved money on groceries and enjoyed fresh produce all year. Her sustainable lifestyle saved her money and reduced carbon emissions.

Living sustainably doesn't have to be expensive. With the right incentives and initiative, it can save costs and create a better future. Plus, turning off the lights when you leave a room saves energy and helps you practice being a ninja!

Resource Management - Cost Efficiency

Incorporating a circular ecosystem into your life can save you money and time. For instance, you don't need to buy water from the supermarket and transport it home. Moreover, there's less waste to dispose of, resulting in a lower cost.

Sustainable energy sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines, can reduce energy bills. Water conservation techniques (e.g. rainwater harvesting, efficient irrigation systems) can lower water costs. Additionally, waste reduction practices (e.g. recycling and composting) can decrease waste disposal expenses.

The benefits of a circular economy are twofold; it helps to protect the environment and saves money. By properly managing resources, individuals can save money and reduce their environmental footprint.

John's story is a prime example. He installed solar panels and implemented a composting system. His energy bills decreased by 40%, and he was able to save money on buying fertilizer for his garden. Plus, there was a considerable reduction in the amount of waste generated, which meant less frequent trash collection fees.

Living with less doesn't mean spending less; it just means spending on things that won't clutter your house, like self-control and happiness.

Minimalist Lifestyle - Economic Advantages

Living a minimalist lifestyle brings many economic advantages. Firstly, it helps cut back on expenses by focusing on the essentials. Resulting in financial savings and a more thoughtful approach to spending.

It also offers potential for increased income. By clearing out and downsizing, individuals can sell or donate unwanted items, making extra money. This money can be used to invest in experiences or save for future goals.

A Sustainable and Affluent Way of Living - Economic Benefits

Furthermore, growing your own food can also lead to economic benefits. Cultivating your own fruits and vegetables, prevents the need to buy produce with chemicals or genetically modified. This saves money and promotes healthier eating habits.

Apart from these economic benefits, minimalism allows individuals to take control over their lives. By cutting down on possessions and focusing on the important things, people can prioritize well-being and happiness over material possessions.

To make the most of the economic advantages of minimalism, it is essential to do research and think of personal priorities. A few ideas are starting small by decluttering one area at a time, creating a budget that fits with minimalist values, and exploring ways to grow your own food like container gardening or joining a community garden.

By taking charge of our finances and embracing simplicity, we can benefit economically while improving our overall well-being.

Start your journey of becoming sustainable the lazy way:

FAQ

While some eco-friendly products may come with a higher upfront cost, the long-term financial benefits of sustainable living practices far outweigh the initial investment. From energy-efficient appliances that reduce utility bills to home gardens that save on grocery expenses, living sustainably can lead to significant cost savings.

Moreover, sustainable choices not only benefit your wallet but also contribute to a healthier environment and a more resilient society. Supporting local businesses and adopting waste reduction practices are just a few ways sustainable living can positively impact the economy and community.

By making conscious choices and embracing eco-friendly habits, we can live sustainably without breaking the bank. It's time to recognize that sustainability is not a luxury but a practical and cost-effective way to protect the planet and secure a brighter future for generations to come.

I might have had a particularly crackish idea for crossovers, but spoilers for RWBY volume 9. Fair warning, it’s a doozy of a ramble.

So, the Danny Phantom fandom (Phandom) has created Little Baby Man Danny, which I think is initially @tourettesdog ‘s brain child, but add variations to the idea of it being a contagious condition.

Consider, if Danny uses portals to other worlds, and being half alive/human, could infect other humans that have, in some way, shape or form, died before,

Example, since the Phandom is on a massive DC crossover kick, Jason Todd being bitten by a little black and white blur, and suddenly, Little Baby Man Red Hood

But let’s go farther afield, shall we? I personally love the Artemis Fowl series, so, Artemis, post Last Guardian resurrection, either doing something he shouldn’t, or something that just happens out of the blue to him (let’s face it, it’ll be funnier), and poof, Little Baby Man Arty, who’s absolutely feral. Everyone else is freaking out because even after developing Atlantis Complex, no one would expect Artemis to turn into a biting, scratching, no-thoughts little chaos creature, Ghost equivalent of rabies or not. And that he keeps hiding in the Fairy Roses, or even growing more anywhere viable for their growth that he settles on (which admittedly isn’t often). Even the most chaotic cat has nothing on a little guy that has ghostly abilities, genius intellect (at least in planning the chaos) and a new disregard for dignity or self preservation to everyone’s, but especially Butler’s and Holly’s dismay (like a fallen bookshelf would be what causes his second death? Ha, no)

The one that really got me on this train of thought, though, is Ruby Rose of RWBY after, well, the Ever After. Ascension, to me, at least, would count as death at least a bit, even if not in it’s base process than certainly with Ruby doing so in a parallel, if not outright, a form of suicide. Yes, it’s still a strech, but let me have this. Little Baby Man Ruby flitting around with her semblance + ghostly flight for maximum chaos, and reverses the whole ‘rest of the team got shrunk and are metaphorically and literally on her shoulders’ from v9, instead team WBY is trying to prevent their leader from disassembling any vaguely interesting weapons in a ten mile radius because interesting and devouring any cookies in an area twice that radius. Bonus for Neo, however you’d like to imagine her post-ascension, or just her appearing just to nope out at seeing this shit. Little Baby Man Ruby annoying Salem and/or Cinder into defeat because their magic ain’t got shit on a tiny ghost thing with Silver Eye anti-Grimm eye blasts the moment either look at her family.

Possibly my favourite part is how a crossover with all of these could work when shoved together. DP and DC crossovers are very popular atm, at least for the Phandom, RWBY and Batman (and the JL as a whole) have official crossovers, and Artemis Fowl also for crossovers but also just a long time fav.

Listen, I just want to imagine LBMRuby and LBMArty becoming best friends without their repressing emotions or the weight of their worlds and legacies on their shoulders. Let them be little chaotic rose-themed creatures together!! Red Hood, tbh is more to connect as a connection to Batman (Team _WBY running into him again after whichever official crossover and just, ‘Red Hood and Ruby got turned into What?’). Ruby and Jason as Red Buddies, Artemis and Danny being a disaster duo that are both Prime Wayne Adoption material (in their normal forms), Ruby and Danny as Heroes, Artemis and Jason as Criminals, etc..

And the others! Sam bonding with the fairies and Damian over being vegetarian and being eco-friendly, Tucker and Foaly getting a rivalry over tech and their names (’There can only be one Foaly/Foley!’) and Oracle just hacks them both. Jazz taking only look at WBY and the Bat Clan and siting them down when things have settled a bit for some impromptu therapy. Butler, Yang and Blake talking shop about guns, drawing in Damien and Weiss when it extends to bladed weapons (and the Remnantian philosophy on ‘it’s also a gun’ for weapons), before everyone else is giving their two cents in non-lethal weapons.

And for how Little-Baby-Man-ism gets cured? Maybe it’s just time, maybe they swing by the Ever After and chuck them at the Tree for Ascension and free therapy, or maybe a trip to the Far Frozen since it is a ghostly disease. Maybe the others get ghost powers like Danny’s, and shenanigans continue in a different form.

Like, Artemis gets a ghost form that looks more like the depictions of Fairies as the Fair Folk of lore, all graceful looking and ethereal, with orange roses integrated. Or he ends up like a vampire, though different from Vlad, and that becomes a whole thing. Also, he accidently turns intangible and falls until he lands in Haven City. No one is amused by the idea of Mud Men just falling into their city, least of all the Mud Man in question.

Ruby, ironically, has less of a rose theme when she develops a ghost form, but it leans heavy into plant-like with Tree-likeness instead, and her colours turning from red to the green-red-purple combination of the Leaves. Her arm turns invisible once and Yang uses it as an excuse for all the hand puns she can make esp. referencing her own prosthetic. (”Say that you’ll give me a hand one more time, Yang, and I’ll tell Dad to show Blake all your baby photos” “C’mon, Sis, just gotta lighten up” “was that a pun on my ghost glow?” “Nah, the flying” starts dialing Taiyang “Wait, Ruby!”)

Not many thoughts on Red Hood tbh, I’m not part of the DC fandom specifically, though I enjoy the content, but it seemed rude to ignore him. I’d rather not accidentally butcher him.

New plants are grown at each of their homes, orange roses and a sapling tree with odd-coloured leaves each give Artemis and Ruby a way to fast-travel to each other’s homes, and Wayne Manor and Amity Park (Sam's greenhouse?) while Danny and Jason are stuck to ‘traditional’ portals. Maybe RWBY’s the only one from a different world, or the others are all from different Earths.

I’ve got a lot of thoughts, obviously, but fuck it, I’m not gonna actually write it into more concrete existence, as opposed to continuously rotating it in my brain. Y’all can take what you’d like, I just want to see if anyone makes anything of this.

TL;DR Give Artemis Fowl and Ruby Rose ghostly Little Baby Man forms alongside Danny. Also Batman’s involved ‘cause why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Dashwood Family Album: Volume IV

Lots of puppy love for Buster!

I think it’s time we met Keziah properly though. Before ageing up...

and after.

Keziah’s child stats:

~ Pisces 3 / 4 / 5 / 4 / 6

~ Absent-minded / Rebellious / Eco-friendly

~ OTH: Film & Literature

~ Favourite Colour(s): Orange / Blue

Robert, it’s supposed to be fun!

At least Esther’s enjoying herself, with neighbour Gabriel.

And Edward is having a whale of a time, in his PJs, in the rain, with his pile of junk...err, car.

There’s also a bit of teen mingling going on, which quickly gets rather confusing... OK, so Clara has got a bit of a thing for Hester - so far, so good.

Well, except that Hester’s clearly not too impressed with Clara’s initial efforts to get to know her better.

Yep, that’s definitely the way to Hester’s Sports-fanatic heart!

See?

And Robert has a fledgling romance of his own going on, with Benjamin - awww!

In the midst of all this lovey-doveyness, Esther joins the teenage fray!

Esther’s teen stats:

~ Aries 6 / 7 / 6 / 4 / 6

~ Heavy Sleeper / Disciplined / Handy / Workaholic

~ OTH: Tinkering

~ Favourite Colour(s): Red

~ Aspiration: Family / Fortune

~ Turn-ons / -off: +Serious / +Tidy / -Unique

Umm, Clara, what about Hester, whom you were swooning over only yesterday?

Right, so it’s Benjamin now?

I think Benjamin might prefer her brother though.

Trains Suck in the USA

So, in America, our inter-city/interstate train service SUCKS. I’m sure individual cities run well enough, but I am not talking about those. I am talking about the trains that go from sea to shining sea.

Let’s start with the first issue:

Amtrak.

They are, and always have been, a notoriously awful. They either need to be dissolved (which is my preference) or overhauled by breaking them into regional pieces. E.G. Amtrak East, Amtrak West etc. I suggest breaking them to bitty bits because maybe if it were smaller, those in charge would be able to get something done. They’d all still answer to a centralized office and tickets would be good cross sectors but the trains themselves would be under the purview of each segmented office. It could also promote friendly competition by seeing which section can ACTUALLY MAKE SURE THEIR DAMN TRAINS ARRIVE ON TIME.

Issue 2: Rails to Trails.

We need to stop that shit NOW. “Why don’t we have rail service to XYZ?” because we ripped up our train tracks for walking trails. You want trains to be a good contender for public transit, that initiative (should it still be in existence) needs to go. I’m not saying walking trails also need to go. Far from it. Make more of those WITHOUT ripping up the train tracks.

Issue 3: The Freight Companies OWN the rails.

In my trip across the US from Eastern Seaboard to the South West, the train I was on had to stop because the freight trains have right-of-way, because the freight companies own the damn rails.

The only solution I see here is going back to what we used to do: It was all ONE train. No Passenger or Freight only. MIX THEM. Have passenger cars mixed in with non-volatile freight.

Your chemical and oil trains can stay on their own, thank you very much. The only liquids that should be mixed in with people are ones we can safely drink (as all liquids are drinkable at least once).

Issue 4: The USA is DAMN big

I often see it brought up by pro-train proponents that about how some countries, like France or Japan, have good rail service.

Yeah and France is around the size of Texas and Japan is similar in area to West Virginia. It’s easy to have good rail service when your country DOESN’T span across a major landmass and you can put a country’s worth of effort for rails in that smaller space. Hence when in my Amtrak section, I suggested breaking it into bits.

It wasn’t just because Amtrak is awful, it was the fact we have a rather large landmass here in the USA.

As for fixing that issue (aside from breaking up Amtrak) I think that there’s the sticking point. We can’t shrink North America (even if some days it’s fun to joke about slicing off Florida or just waiting for the Big One to knock California into the sea).

It would take a large investment to do this and it would have to be a proper investment not some political garbage of “I’m going to give this place in the middle of nowhere a brand new monorail to....this rock!”

No. It has to be actual, focused on the train service between the states and cities and nothing else. Maybe a train refresh. Maybe a renegotiation with the Freight companies.

Make the rails a proper alternative to the roads.

This will mean that it can’t necessarily be a “green” revitalization. It just needs to be done, without gimmicks.

That’s why this won’t happen.

Politicians love to talk a big game but they lack the capacity of getting their heads out of their collective asses to care about what we on the ground need. They can never just get things done.

Can it be made environmentally friendly? I’m sure it could but that can’t be the end-all-be-all if you’re trying to get the trains more efficient in the here and now. Just focus on making interstate travel by train not suck first and worry about the planet later. Earth could kill us any time she likes. Remember that.

Besides, efficient train service would still be a major eco win. Less cars going coast to coast (and with trains going more frequently, it might also help with shipping too and getting big rigs off the roads) and all that.

So, Tl;Dr—Trains suck because Amtrak sucks, we ripped up our rails, freight companies own what’s left, and the USA is damn big.

The way to fix this would be to focus on making trains viable alternatives first and worrying about the planet later.

After years of waiting, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has finally arrived and the first reactions are mostly positive. It’s a truly beautiful, moving film that’s also a fun, action packed spectacle. Initial critics reviews are great, with the film currently holding an 85 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

A common thread for those who’ve seen the film is the strength of its cast, with The Root Senior Editor Jay Connor writing, “While there isn’t an instruction manual on how to follow up a $1.3 billion juggernaut in the absence of its lead character…Black Panther: Wakanda Foreverprovides the blueprint on how to excel in doing exactly that, thanks to a masterfully-constructed ensemble cast and an underlying theme brimming with emotion and relatability.”

As brilliant as the cast is, Chadwick Boseman’s absence is felt throughout the movie. But it’s in the same way that you remember a loved one, with Moira Macdonald of the Seattle Timeswriting, “Boseman’s T’Challa is a spirit that lovingly haunts the film.”

Even with all the emotional weight involved in the project, no visit to Wakanda would be complete without highlighting the extraordinary work of Oscar-winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter and production designer Hannah Beachler. This time around, we get a completely different look at Wakanda’s capital and its people, with the duo once again effortlessly blending the grounded traditions of the country with its technological advances.

“Their shared vision of Afro-futurism feels lush and joyful and beautifully specific set against the usual white noise of Marvel fanfare, even (or almost especially) in darker moments, like the pristine rituals of a funeral scene,” Entertainment Weekly’s Leah Greenblatt writes.

Following the film’s Thursday night previews, fans flocked to social media to praise the cast and crew, share their thoughts and process their feelings as a community.

The emotional impact of the movie led to unexpected audience reactions, with one person tweeting, “there was a moment when the crowd of 300 fell completely silent. No music, dialogue, popcorn bags, drinks, talking...Never experienced anything like that before in a theater where everyone was 100 [percent] respecting the moment. Chills..”

Another moviegoer appreciated the film’s special place in the franchise, writing, “I don’t know I can rank #BlackPantherWakandaForever in a hierarchy. But this movie is definitely a top tier movie, standing on its own legs.”

One fan celebrated how surprising the movie’s plot is and how well done the story beats are, tweeting, “#BlackPantherWakandaForever is truly one of marvels best movies, I came into the movie not really knowing what to expect and it threw me into a emotional rollercoaster, the plot line was definitely something I was not expecting at all in the best way possible, you can see all. Very well done!”

Meanwhile, another movie fan noted that the film works on every level, writing, “#BlackPantherWakandaForever... Slow and steadily building storyline with a few surprises and a satisfying ending.

Linear Alpha Olefin Prices, Price Trend, News, Analysis & Forecast

Linear Alpha Olefin (LAO) Prices: For the Quarter Ending March 2024

Linear alpha olefins (LAOs) are crucial building blocks in the chemical industry, serving as raw materials for a wide array of products, ranging from detergents and lubricants to plastics and synthetic oils. The pricing dynamics of linear alpha olefins are influenced by various factors, including feedstock costs, supply-demand dynamics, and market trends. Understanding these intricacies is essential for stakeholders within the chemical industry to make informed decisions.

One of the primary drivers of linear alpha olefin prices is the cost of feedstock. LAOs are typically derived from ethylene through oligomerization, and ethylene prices play a significant role in determining the cost structure of LAOs. Fluctuations in ethylene prices, which can be influenced by factors such as crude oil prices, supply disruptions, and geopolitical events, directly impact the production costs of LAOs, thereby influencing their market prices.

Moreover, supply and demand dynamics significantly impact linear alpha olefin prices. As with any commodity, when demand outstrips supply, prices tend to rise, and vice versa. Factors such as industrial growth, consumer demand for end products, and regulatory changes affecting production capacities can all influence the supply-demand balance of LAOs. Additionally, the presence of substitute products and advancements in technology that enable alternative production methods can also impact the demand for and thus the prices of linear alpha olefins.

Get Real Time Prices of Linear Alpha Olefin (LAO): https://www.chemanalyst.com/Pricing-data/linear-alpha-olefin-1103

Market trends and global economic conditions also play a crucial role in determining linear alpha olefin prices. Economic growth or recession in key consuming regions can affect the demand for various products manufactured using LAOs, thereby impacting their prices. Furthermore, evolving consumer preferences towards eco-friendly products and sustainable manufacturing processes can drive demand for bio-based or renewable LAOs, thereby influencing traditional LAO prices.

The geographical location of production facilities and transportation infrastructure also influence linear alpha olefin prices. Proximity to feedstock sources, production hubs, and end markets can affect production costs, logistics expenses, and ultimately, market prices. Additionally, factors such as energy prices, labor costs, and regulatory frameworks in different regions can impact the overall cost structure of LAOs, thereby influencing their prices.

In recent years, environmental regulations and sustainability initiatives have gained prominence, driving changes in the chemical industry, including the production and pricing of linear alpha olefins. With increasing awareness about climate change and the need for reducing carbon emissions, there is growing interest in developing bio-based or renewable sources of LAOs, which could potentially disrupt traditional supply chains and pricing dynamics.

In conclusion, linear alpha olefin prices are influenced by a myriad of factors, including feedstock costs, supply-demand dynamics, market trends, and regulatory developments. Understanding these factors and their interplay is essential for stakeholders in the chemical industry to navigate the complexities of the LAO market effectively. Moreover, with the increasing focus on sustainability and environmental stewardship, the landscape of linear alpha olefin production and pricing is likely to undergo significant transformations in the coming years, presenting both challenges and opportunities for industry participants.
