Kabru has a secret admirer in the castle!

#running from my responsibilities (drawing armour) by imagining post canon Kabru fashion #minor spoilers in the tags! #royal advisor Kabru’s office is probably overflowing with gifts from foreign dignitaries eyeing him up for marriage #and sacks of perfumed letters from Melini citizens #Marcille would be so sick of it #Laios also has his fair share of proposals #Yaad is like … boys spare us all and pick a suitable candidate already #well Yaad there’s a saying that goes two birds one stone #anyway lol #someone might have suggested to Laios ‘hey Kabru works so hard. you should show your appreciation.’ #Laios (blushing sweating): uuuh how do i do that #Marcille probably: i hear it’s customary to give your royal advisor flowers the same colour as their beautiful blue eyes #Laios: well if you say so #but he starts having second thoughts bcs what if the gift is too romantic #so then Laios is like oh i know i just won’t sign it (: #fool proof plan Laios good job #totally not taking into account that Kabru can recognize his penmanship at a first glance #so at their next meeting Kabru is like ‘i wonder who my secret admirer in the castle is 😉’ #and Laios sweats so hard he falls out of his throne #doesn’t Kabru of Melini have a nice ring to it #better yet …. Kabru Touden #much to consider #dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi spoilers #kabru #kabru of utaya #labru #if you squint #wasabi doodles

The Jedi Order mainly being an institution about teaching makes me sad that we never see more "Jedi classes" outside of the popular ones like martial arts, healthcare and Force wackery.

Alongside basic language and science education etc there have to be at least some trade and college courses on offer, right? The Jedi need a bunch of their own people with law degrees. Proper pedagogy studies for future crèchemasters. Cooks. Managers. All types of engineers. Electricians. Accountants. Researchers. How many Jedi hold a doctorate or professorate? Because I think a large number of them do. Their databanks are filled with millennia of dissertations. You can still find Yoda's articles from 500 years ago and cite them in your history research paper.

The Order just having its own micro-economy going on and every member getting their own regular job education next to all the lightsaber swinging adventures... pls

#like idk... mace actually has a phd in chemistry #what if yoda passed the fucking coruscant bar exam 700 years ago and now is a veritable law historian for the post-ruusan era #LIKE!!! #comedy potential but also so cool #it would also make the war so much more jarring bc now the padawans simply don't get to have a job that isn't “soldier“ #imagine being in the middle of ur nice little social science major as a 20-smth padawan and then the war starts #and your courses are spontaneously switched to officer candidate school type shit #:/

US politics and history time for a moment...

The people who want to claim that voting for Biden would mean they supported genocide remind me a great deal of the people in the 1830s - 1860s in the North who wanted immediate abolition because they believed slavery was a sin and God would hold them guilty of that sin if they didn't oppose slavery. This sometimes resulted in them supporting 3rd party candidates that, SURPRISE!, did nothing but push the election toward the most rabid pro-slavery candidates.

You know what most of those moral anti-slavery people didn't care about? What happened to Black Americans. They were concerned only about their own guilt, not Black Americans' welfare.

None of these people making this a moral issue now show any signs of caring what happens to Palestinians OR to all of the other groups that will suffer if the dumpster wins instead.

Biden can't wave his hand and make it go away because the US doesn't have unilateral power worldwide (though some Americans seem to believe that, sigh.) There are limits on his powers, especially since he has to negotiate with a hostile House of Representatives. He has chosen what is actually a pretty effective route and fought for at least some aid to get to Palestinians. And currently he has *some* leverage with the Israelis.

The question you should be asking yourself if you really care about genocide is which choice will do the most to help the Palestinians? Do you really think the dumpster would do even as much as Biden? Or would he be actively helping them and every other imperialist country (*cough*Russia*cough*)? And who else will suffer if he wins that would not under Biden?

If that isn't what matters most to you, then you're no different from the moral abolitionists and other Northerners who wanted slavery restricted (because it depressed wages for free white men) but also wanted to make it illegal for African Americans to move into new states like Ohio and Indiana and Illinois (racism and fears of wage competition.) Or to ship them to Africa, no matter how many generations had been in the US?

It's not idealism. You're self-centered and egotistical and actively choosing evil if you think "punishing" Biden is the result of not voting.

Vote pragmatically. Vote strategically. Vote with the welfare of the most people possible in mind.

#us politics #us history #And don't bring up effing obscure 3rd party candidates until they *aren't* obscure any more #And have a broad base of local and state and congressional office holders for that party to support them #And a political record that proves they can do the job #I got sucked into that once when I was much MUCH younger and saw an election go from a moderate candidate I wasn't enthusiastic about #To one of the worst presidents we've ever had #Voting for one of those in a national election is effectively voting for the dumpster #do you really know how the US government works? #Anyone who wins has to be able to get Congress to work with them and your 3rd party candidates have virtually no connections there #Your 3rd party candidate would effectively have to become a member of one of the two major parties to get anything done #But without the support of that party's political machinery etc. especially as they approached re-election

[doggamn-it]

Who am I supposed to vote for? Who the fuck am I supposed to vote for??

In one corner, you've got Mr. Run America like I Run my Businesses. In the other, you've got Mr. I Can Excuse Genocide and Will be Complicit.

Which would make you THINK that one would be better than the other.

Until you remember Mr. Cheeto Tan has been arrested, been in and is still being, investigated for multiple crimes INCLUDING COMPROMISING NATIONAL GODDAMN SECURITY

The man has already gone on record to basically say he wants to change the law and constitution of the USA so he can be President for as long as he wants.

How am I supposed to vote for either of these pieces of shit?? I can either: help kill people in my own country via forced pregnancy, homelessness, less restrictions on gun safety, and criminalization of my and other minorities OR help kill people in another country via fucking GENOCIDE

WHO THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO VOTE FOR?!

#someone tell me #can we have ONE presidential candidate who can do their goddamn job RIGHT???? #jesus fuck #where is their humanity?! #free palestine #free gaza #palestine #gaza #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #jerusalem #news on gaza

Being an assistant manager has been...something. Managing the people, both customer and employee, is what's most tiring.

I do it well enough I guess, but it's just... 🫠

#every week it's interpersonal drama #and there's usually the one person who's the nucleus of it #ahhhh...hhh #i just need to sit down with every person to have a solid candid conversation with them #i've done a good job of figuring out what makes everyone tick and i can read them well #it's my job to observe and all that but goddang

Instead of playing Darksaber hot potato, the real test of leadership on Mandalore should be lining up all the potential candidates for leadership and then making them helm a town hall meeting without either losing their temper or killing someone.

#mandalorians #mandalore #satine kryze #bo katan kryze #gar saxon #pre vizsla #moff gideon #sabine and din are technically in the rotation but they both ran for it #ironically i think din might have done a pretty good job. #if only in comparison to the other candidates #until he met someone talking about how beskar poisons you and helmets lower your oxygen intake #tarre is not in the rotation because like the darksabe he would automatically win

i need to know what the people think of a very important question...in a kacy "miss congeniality" au

#second follow up question. DOES any such au exist bc i would sell my soul for it #i just rewatched s2 ep 20 and kates miss america answer about her dream job has me in a chokehold #but at the same time..lucy tara & her rich texan background would make her a prime candidate too #kacy #bs.txt

just called my psychiatrists office and turns out he's no longer on my insurence network and didn't even bother telling me during our last appointment so now I have two days to either find a whole new doctor & get an immediate appointment where they prescribe all of my medications with no hassle (literally impossible), come up with 400 fucking dollars (I have 13.95 in my bank account), or go cold turkey on all my meds and probably end up hospitalized from the withdrawal symptoms & locked up on a mandatory hold, forced on an antipsychotic and then saddled w/a 5,000 dollar bill for it. wouldn't be the first time!

#my new job still hasnt even told me when im actually starting yet either beyond just the shadowing & training 🤩 #its weird that they havent called i genuinely think they might have gone with the other candidate after all & just not told me #thatd be some typical thresholds bullshit lol #Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
