Here's a horrible idea for you. Quantonium works in mysterious and odd ways but one thing that they do discover over time is that it slows Susan's aging down to a snail's pace. Thirty years could go by and she looks and feels hardly no different. Scientists figure she and Bob could stand to become the longest-living monsters and that they could outlive everyone in the facility.
hell yeah, I hc it also helps with her healing and need for energy, so not a lot of food to eat and less bathroom trips. she's self-sustaining and practically indestructible to earthly forces
I hear you and I propose Link will be the second monster out of the group to die of old age, since the other 3 would have to be directly killed for anything to happen quick, otherwise a shortage of food will be the death of Doc & Bob
Monger I can see go on for another 30-50 years, Butterfly depends after Link
they're not immortal, definitely, and Susan will die, eventually, but if not old age, it'll be because of loneliness :(

i think the real answer to "why is this generation so bad at small talk" is that. theyre not. theyre fine. i very rarely come across people that cant make small talk. those who cant always clearly come across as autistic or mentally ill or neurodivergent in some way. which. are people who have always existed. most people that say they hate small talk literally do it all the time and are fine at it. y'all just love blowing shit out of proportion.

okay so we all see the pieces lining up for ELQ to cave in on itself yea? stocks tanking due to valentin faking his death, insider trading charges on the horizon, the Qs about to oust valentin, etc. personally I’m glad they’re bringing the insider trading charges back since. oh my god I’ve been rooting for a Carly Faces Consequences era for months now.
I think though, while nina is contemplating reporting Crew to the SEC, she shouldn’t be the one to report them herself. this would once again antagonize her against the rest of the bensons/quartermaines, and the only way for Nina to reach Willow involves playing nice with the rest of her family as well, since Carly is about to be willow’s mother in law. no, it would be smarter to place this information in the hands of someone who can use it more decisively, I.e. valentin. If the Qs try to push him out of ELQ then he can weaponize the insider trading info against the rest of them, either to keep his shares or to go full scorched earth and tank ELQs reputation. nina and valentin are still on good terms, so if she gives valentin the info then he gets to be the one to make the call to the SEC, all while nina keeps her own hands clean and has some plausible deniability in the situation…

oh since it’s past midnight uhh. happy one year on t to me i guess
#weirdly I don’t feel very much emotion over it#but it sure is something#very weird#honestly my number one thought about it rn is just that all the fear mongering my mom did like my whole life but especially right before /#right after going on t was proven to be. well. fear mongering. and all her dumb transphobic claims were proven false pretty much so#that’s. something#like things about how my personality will drastically change and I won’t be the same person anymore or that I’ll be like.#a fucking full grown middle aged man or something and not like. you know. an almost 22 year old dude#and other stuff about ya know the classics. anger and libido and whatever#to be fair the libido part is one of the more true things but by no means is it in the predatory way she’d put it#she basically said at one point that I wouldn’t look at anyone– particularly women– in a non-sexual light ever again#and that I’ll just inherently be thinking about them in a violating sort of way#which is. uh. interesting to say#like wow that rhetoric seems to fit right in with the conservatives you claim to hate so much and their views on trans people but go off#anyway and then the anger thing has just been a total nonissue#I’ve been overall less angry than before generally though admittedly I don’t live with my mom anymore so that helps. but I do live with an#infuriating roommate and haven’t ever legit lashed out at her or anything honestly my patience here has been like. like I deserve an award#overall I’ve just felt more dead inside but that has nothing to do with t really and more to do with losing all my friends and everything i#know and not liking my school and being overworked and having zero friends or doing anything outside school or so on and so on and so on#yeah my life is sort of. miserable but yeah like I said that’s unrelated#what ISNT unrelated is I DEFINITELY haven’t had the style of breakdowns I used to have– ie; I just don’t fucking cry anymore#like basically ever#that’s definitely something to do with t and idk it’s not..#a good thing or a bad thing. like it has its pros and cons#anyway it’s been. a year#a very weird and very depressing year but t has at least made it so I don’t hate myself when I look in the mirror so that definitely helps#like dysphoria has been nearly a non-issue for quite some time and that’s fucking fantastic that’s a fucking Improvement#i gotta stop talking afgdhfjf I don’t know what I’m saying anymore just. yeah maybe I’ll say more about this later who knows#kibumblabs

MvA: The M Files, take-a-peek, pt. 5
Chapter 6:
Dr C's origin story video was a 20-second one-take recording of his accident, so there's little to no room for any deviation from the movie. Still, may this NOT disappoint
Tumblr media
Gotta love alliterations but carnage means "widespread murder". And I don't think this sort of kids' book would be willing to show a bloodbath
I just realized, where are the stairs leading to those massive doors?
A pin-up in the audience, wth? Even the guy to her left is saying the same thing
Genetic teleportation device. Makes sense cuz teleportation was the topic of scientific research & experimentation in both Fly movies but this time the bug mutation is intentional. The video game only talks about the genetic part: recombinant DNA (fact: this term wasn't coined until the 70s, so Dr C was ahead of his time). Thanks, M Files, for a better elaboration beyond just a scientific machine
Is it just me or have the illustrators eventually said, "heck with it! let's just get this done & over with!" and got lazy? Taking a look at the last two chapters/the last post, I'm beginning to wonder
Tumblr media
Ok, we get a better visual of Dr C's hairstyle. I put this pic in a grayscale filter and his hair in the movie was definitely darker than this ash brown-blond color (I like to think it's dark brown)
That shirt & tie. So much for that turtleneck. But from what I've gathered, the illustrators for a number of kids' books about the movie were given art references (besides the concept art) from DW months before the movie came out. Dr C's swap from the tie to the turtleneck didn't happen until later in the making of the movie; pretty much all the concept art of him show a shirt & tie. I don't know about you but I wanna see that reference art, every piece of it! As a fan of this glorious franchise, may my prayers be answered!
Whozits. Lol
Srsly? Portable phones, or phones that didn't require a cord, were a thing of dreams in the 60s. And what kind of haircut are you guaranteed? A trim? A buzz cut? And chocolate tastes AWFUL after you brush your teeth, and the average adult doesn't drink hot chocolate on a regular basis. It's coffee, if anything. Or even more realistic in the early 60s: a phone that lights a cigarette. You ever watch mid-century period dramas like Mad Men or Call The Midwife? Every other person smoked back then--anytime, anywhere! But this is a kids' book, again. Smoking/tobacco use is nowadays a reason for something not to be rated G. Istg, my inner historian has been doubled over & screaming in pain since this chapter began! Ok, enough whining
The fat guy's constant *ahem* cracks me up tho
Was this presentations of scientific discoveries or a glorified science fair? Dr C had discovery in mind while the fat guy had fair in mind. Imo, that genetic teleportation device was way more practical than a phone with hygiene & hot chocolate powers, not just super scientific
Unsurprisingly, Doc had his own fanbase on a university campus
Tumblr media
Say "they called me crazy but I'll show them" without saying "they called me crazy but I'll show them"
Ok, is it just me or did the color pallet change on this page?
Didn't think that the machine was red. Also, the shirt is now black
"Whoops! I made a mistake!" "Just keep going, Jim. We've got a deadline."
So, he's just going with it without actually testing it on something else? That IS mad
I wish we saw more of his face in this instead of the back of his head
Dr C foretold Neil Armstrong's famous landing-on-the-moon quote
Tumblr media
O...m...g. You can tell the illustrators had the hardest (or laziest) time with this chapter. I can barely look
Tumblr media
A PhD in dance, mind you. A PhD in anything doesn't make you a faultless god
Oh! And go back inside if you want peace & quiet. And if you must, lock the door
Now both the tie and shirt is a different color
Tumblr media
Reclining in the trash can, lol
I'm honestly the university campus hasn't been entirely vacated at this point
Tumblr media
Welp, if climate change doesn't work, we know where to go...wait this was the 60s. Never mind
So, you've got a washing machine, an oil barrel, two tires, a traffic cone, maybe a bike chain and...what else?
That day, the middle of September 1962, a distinguishable sound that would haunt a secret prison facility for generations to come was born. This lines up with my h/c that being partially human mentally on top of the trauma of the accident brought on some amount of insanity
That tie must be magic. It changed colors again
Omg! Just call that slipper out for what it is!
"Hey, Jim? What's that shoe thing people wear in the morning?" "I forget. In this panel, it's in a junkyard, so just call it an 'ugh'."
In the movie... "Ooh! An old ugh...I mean, slipper!"
Tumblr media
That is one heck of a net for that tiny fishing pole
The antennae sticking out of the net
Ooh, Monger's a major now, but how'd he know about Dr C?
But srsly. Is this chapter perfect? No. But I like it for giving "human" Dr C a bit more time than just a 10-second camera footage of a hottie in a lab coat getting into a giant cylinder. I don't know about anyone else, but it gives me more of a comprehension that Dr C's a human being with a cockroach head and tendencies, not just a strange anthropomorphic bug person
Epilogue
The End! Oh, wait!
Tumblr media
So the jetpack has a flamethrower? Hot dang...literally
Link lifting a weight with his tail, lol
Blue-eyed Dr C with a gold tie pulling out...what is that? A bra? The illustrators must hate his guts
Tumblr media
Poor private Grime. And what are the monsters supposed to do with potatoes? I think B.O.B. & maybe Insecto are the only ones who would eat potatoes, and Dr C might try potato battery experiments. But why so many? Did Monger stop by local gleaners or a food bank/pantry? Was this a donation of charity? Did he accidentally go over the top with potato crops at his farm? I don't get it! But quoting Samwise Gamgee, "Po-Tay-Toes! Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew!" There's probably a thousand and one things you could make with potatoes. Like vodka--oh, wait! Kids' book
Grime must've been like one soldier online who said he could cook minute-rice in 58 seconds. Still, I feel bad for the guy. Do you know how hard peeling potatoes can be on your hands after a while? Ow, ow, owie...
Overall, not a bad book. Disappointing every now and then, but hey! Kids' book. It was kinda expected. The watered-down, non-violent breakaways from the movie had its ups and downs. Like providing some explanation of details of the origin stories in the movie, like why the tomato and dessert topping. Or the idea that luring a monster into a trap is the ultimate way to capture one, MUCH more scaled out and less violent than fighting them until you get the upper hand and force them into submission and/or tranquilizing them, like tranquilizing Susan and then tying her down when she became too drowsy to fight and eventually consciousness in the movie instead of luring her into a trap (like, how would you lure a confused, scared 50-foot bride into a trap when all she can think of was her fiance's safety and why people were wrapping a rope around her arm?). If you thought this book was a disappointment through and through, I read the graphic novelization, and it is a bigger disappointment than anything in this book. More watered down, the illustration was terrible, and some of the rewritten scenes didn't add up with the events of the movie, like wth. I think I threw it out
I hope you enjoyed this take-a-peek series as much as I did. And maybe I can share the second half of the entire book, a story called Brain Pain, a silly entertaining story about the four monsters (BOB, Dr C, Link, & Insecto) in the facility some time before Susan showed up. Maybe :)
Again, none of this belongs to me, as much as I wish it did

As a heads up, the Western propaganda machine is going to be much worse. Now that there's confirmation that South Africa are preparing to take Britain and the United States to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for complicity in the State of Israel’s war crimes and genocide on Gaza- we think that it's important to note that it's almost like clockwork that the propaganda machine will skyrocket with new anti-Palestinian resistance defamation and unfounded allegations levied to further hostility within our already divided communities.
Read more on South Africa's proposal here:
News sourced from Anadolu Ajansı.
It’s a no-brainer that we’ll see a sharp rise in pro-Israel propaganda, and it’s highly likely that there’ll be a crackdown on pro-Palestinian and anti-Zionist rallying. You see, the Capitalist hegemony is almost ridiculously predictable once you figure out how it functions and operates; the historical cycle of committing atrocities and subsequently excusing themselves with absurd lies of brainwashing propaganda. The United States and United Kingdom will certainly not take kindly to South Africa's intention to charge them in this international lawsuit- thus they will need a retaliation that gains more favour for them from the general public.
Expect more confounded accusations of antisemitism and Jew-hatred imposed on celebrities, organisations, journalists, even nations. Expect more fascist laws passed to silence Palestinian resistance support, and more Islamophobic fear-mongering.
Propaganda is not always easy to spot and deconstruct, so be sure to stay vigilant and think critically in context of current events. However the Imperial core are growing weaker, with such incredible numbers, millions of people, showing support to Palestine internationally- we are no longer easily fooled by their usual tactics. In the putrid face of propaganda, the Palestinian resistance persists.

"I am not afraid of you at all. I have nothing left to lose. I have power I can use. Nothing you can say or do will ever stop me again" <<< aka the moment from Carrie the musical that makes me lose my shit every time
#the klock keeps ticking#its just the most cathartic feeling ever like the fucking mom is so controlling and its the climax shes losing her absolute fucking shit cuz#carries going to the prom and shes so scared of carrie being exposed to normal people and being accepted because then obviously#she’ll realize just how bad she has it and she’ll want to leave her mother for good and we cant have that#cuz the mom cant stand the idea of being alone so shes bringing out the fear mongering to the extreme#literally like ripping carries clothes off to make a point about how all men will try and assault her#and then carrie just snaps and she closes all those windows with her powers and shes just looking down at her mom#and shes just like. you dont scare me anymore and im gonna do what i want because i deserve to have fun#and like the she eats that pie like a girlboss#i have some pretty mixed feelings about the musical and like this story in general#cuz like i LOVE all the scenes with carrie and her mom but then the other half just really isnt very interesting#so in musical form its like half the songs fuck severely and the other half are so boring i snooze just thinking about them#but still when it hits it hits and you already know what i gotta say as someone whos been raised all strictly catholic#in a controlling environment with a codependent relationship with my mom this specific song feels so good#like yes girl you are so much better than your loser mom i hope she dies im running her over and kicking her#also sue is gay as fuck for carrie in the musical and i approve the final song makes me sob every time

im a white jew, i was born in israel,
ive lived there all my life and was brought up in an environment that fosters racism driven by nationalism, nationalism driven by racism.
in israel, they teach you jews and muslims (though usually, they just say arabs) have always been enemies, the same way the US deems the entire middle east as a inherent war zone, ridding them of the responsibility for perpetuating war in thst region.
they tell you "were the fair and humane side who strives for peace! its the arabs who never accept the offer!"
i remember the first time i began doubting that sentiment was in fourth grade, when we were having a discussion in class about the character of Saul from the Torah. the teacher was talking about how Saul, the first monarch of the Kingdom of Israel, used to fight the Philistines, and when she added that the Philistines were the natural enemy of the Israelites, she asked the class what group of people is their modern equivalent to which everyone very eagerly replied "Arabs!" and nevermind that there in that same class sat two arab boys, one of whom sat next to me, who i looked at and thought "but he isnt my enemy? hes just a boy in my class."
they teach you to hate arabs. sometimes they say it outright. sometimes they say it more carefully, or make a distinction between good and bad arabs, those who are with us and those who are against us.
in a state based on the idea of (white) jewish supremacy, they teach you jews are naturally superior. they use the conspiratorial narrative of "jews controlling the world" to their favor, giving their own watered down explanation for why antisemitism exists, saying that it must be driven by jealousy.
the zionist movement always used antisemitism to its advantage, either for reinforcing the notion of jewish supremacy or appealing to the real pain and trauma of generations, people who survived the holocaust, connecting them to stolen land where they are "guaranteed" safety ergo granting "justification" for the suffering of others.
its using peoples real pain that makes fear mongering so effective, and when the israeli population grows up being told all of their neighboring countries want to kill them, they quickly get defensive of the "only land where they can feel safe", but the only explanation ever provided for Why these neighboring countries are considered enemies is because theyre arabs.
and when it comes to palestine, it isnt even recognized as a country, nor identity. just a threat. ive talked to many people who are genuinely unaware of the occupation, and they arent willing to believe it either, because the media narrative has successfully shifted the blame on hamas. because "how could it be us? we want peace! its the terrorists who make us look bad! and their children, they grow up to be antisemites*, might as well get rid of them too!" they never stop to think what environment these children must grow up in to develop these "radical" ideas.
* what they mean by antisemite is really just antizionist, but the term anti/zionist isnt practiced in local dialect, being a zionist is treated as a given
any jew who stands against israels oppression is dubbed a self hating jew, but the biggest contributors to antisemitism is the people in charge of an ethnostate, because at any moment they could decide who is not white enough to be jewish, who is too jewish to be white, who stood against the current coalition government and who is an obedient dog.
israelis arent a monolith, but many of them have been won over, convinced its an "us v them" situation, when in reality it could never be the "us" that "loses"
the israeli government was waiting for an event like the massacre on the seventh of october to declare war, to have the so called "right to defend itself", so they could initiate the final steps of an ethnic genocide and displace, if not kill, all remaining palestinians. under the guise of bringing peace.
it isnt too late to call for a permanent ceasefire, to end the occupation.
please contact your representatives, attend protests and rallies if you are able. palestine will be free, and the flowers will rise again.
