Still high on the fact that years ago I told myself “one day I’ll do this” and “one day I’ll accomplish that” and well…it’s one day now

misadventures at nix’s tavern
“Joe, you’re fired.”
“No, I’m not.”
Lewis Nixon put his head in his hands and wonders why the fuck this needed to be happening today of all days. Despite never advertising as such, but possibly having to do with his brusque employees and inability to keep a female hire, Nix’s Tavern had gotten the reputation as both an Irish bar and a gay bar; March 17th and June 28th were their busiest days of the year. It was the morning of Saint Patrick’s Day and all hands were on deck to keep shit as together as possible: Joe was an active hindrance to that. Joe, all 135 pounds of him, was his best bartender and worst nightmare rolled into one. He could make a drink quicker and better than anyone, was never late, and managed to piss off everyone who stepped in the door, highlighted by last night’s disaster.
“Joe, don’t do this to me today. C‘mon, man.”
“You can’t fire me. What did I do wrong?” Joe, who he doesn’t even remember hiring by the way, throws his arms up.
“What did you-Joe, do you remember calling a woman a troglodyte last night? Because I do. Do you remember her throwing one of my martini glasses at your head? You still smell like olives.”
“I didn’t call her a troglodyte, I called her boyfriend one,” Joe shrugs, looking back at the bar he had been summoned from, “Can I get back to my prep?”
“Her boyfriend, oh, my deepest apologies,“ Nix presses his hands together in mock remorse, “Yes, you called her boyfriend a troglodyte. That makes it so much better. Joe, I cannot fucking have you here tonight. Just go home. Please, man.”
“You can’t expect Welsh and Luz to be on bar alone!” Joe cries, pointing at the two other bartenders who are supposed to be cutting limes but seem to be having more fun balancing shot glasses on their palms.
“They have each other. Put the fucking glass down, George!” George shoots Nix a quick thumbs up before the three glasses he has balancing in his other hand fall to the floor and shatter. George just gives him a shrug. God, this day needs to be done with already.
“Lew, are you fucking stupid?”
“Stupid for letting you work here? Stupid for opening this place? I’m the biggest idiot on fucking earth.”
“Lew,” Joe says, as serious as Joe can ever be, “I’ll be good tonight. Promise.” It’s a bold faced lie, but they both know that Joe needs to be here. A fact that Nix hates and Joe will never let him forget. For all his flaws and abilities to irritate the shit out of most of their customers, Joe had been a godsend after Buck quit.
“Joe, I swear to God,” Nix says, the same warning he’s given him time and time again, “Last chance.”
“Last chance.” Joe gives him a shit eating grin and a wink before getting up from their table and heading back to the bar, grabbing a pan and broom on the way to clean up George’s mess.
Joe fucking Liebgott, Nix laments as he gets up and makes him way to the kitchen to check on Malarkey, I hope you get your ass kicked tonight.
Enjoy this little add on to my other dive bar!au posts, all of which are now tagged under “misadventures at nix’s tavern!

I'm still hoping we get to see Sonic, Tails and Maddie have their own misadventures in the miniseries. The three of them don't have to have their own personal arcs like Knuckles and Wade seeing as they'll most likely save that for the third movie, I'm moreseo looking for episodic sitcom comic relief to balance out bikers, agents and former Robotnik lackeys hunting down the duo.
Oooooh! Yeah! I’d LOVE to see some comedic relief from Sonic and Tails. That would be great! That, and I love the chemistry between Ben and Colleen very much!

I know whipple misadventures is about the WHIPPLES, but do you have any ideas on building on the relationships they have with the wachowski boys? or amy?
Yeah! I mentioned Amy is starting school soon, so we'll be seeing more of her. Right now, she and Silver are the closest but it would be nice to see her and Shadow bond over something.
I also want more Shadow and Tails, after their motorcycle mishap. Maybe Shadow will have more ideas of stuff for him to build.
And I want more bonding of Knuckles with everyone. He starts training classes. We'll also see Eclipse doing Yoga with Maddie and Knuckles joins in

The Wachowski's but they have annual bedtime cuddles?
Oh, most definitely. Whenever Tom and Maddie are settled in for the night, just like clockwork they would count down the minutes before the all the kids (that also includes Ozzie) come into their room and crowd around them on the bed.
They would usually talk about how their day was or what was happening during the week, usually it being some random misadventure that they endured, a moment where they all get into a big hug/snuggle pile, with them playfully fighting over which kid gets to hug each parent the most based on how many chores were done that day (Tom loves pulling that card), ending with some goodnight kisses before sending them off to bed.

open to: f/m/nb plot: demon/succubus was summoned by your muse and things doesn’t go as planned
Tumblr media
maddie was considered pretty much a young demon despite living over hundreds of years but she took on small tasks and wishes of others in exchange for various things. in today’s misadventure, a summoner forced her to appear in front of them and the demon wanted nothing more than to cause havoc. “so you summoned me to do exactly what?” she smirked as her blue eyes looked into their eyes. she knew what they wanted but she wanted them to tell her. “you do realize i’m a succubus right? not your average little 'sell-your-soul' demon?”

Transformers Cyberverse Life on Earth
Clobber
Constructed Cold, Clobber was born into the House of Lugnut, a proud military line who had served countless wars and campaigned on and off Cybertron. The product line had thinned out considerably and because of Forging restrictions Nominus Prime put into place post Shattering, Cold Construction was turned to for Clobber’s generation. Unlike the rest of the family, she had a love of cooking and drink mixing, using her tank mode as something of an unauthorized drink mixer. The House was furious she wasn’t following the family tradition, but LOVED her drink mixes that they reluctantly allowed Clobber to follow her passions. However she was rejected by the Senate, denied her bartending license because of Functionist laws. Clobber was attracted by the Decepticons’ rejection of the Senate and to the House’s joy, joined the Decepticon military. Bubbly and friendly Clobber saw it as 9-5 job as a stepping stone to her true passion, but four million years of endless war later, it began to sink in this wasn’t working and that Clobber may have made a mistake. Part of the Heavycons and outfitted with POKE tech, Clobber’s unit decimated the Senate’s guards, and she even killed one of the corrupt Primes on council, Regulus Prime. As part of Shockwave’s Earth unit, she engaged in various misadventures against the Autobots and their human allies. She became fond of the humans, and found their scrappy nature fascinating, even bonding with human ally Thompson, during her scheduled shore leave, over similar problems in life. After a botched Solar Needle and Spark Armor fiasco, the later she wore a military bomber as armor, Clobber decided she had wasted enough time with the Decepticons, and after a brief fling as a Venomcon under Miles Mayhem, defected to the Autobots after protecting Grahm, Thompson, Meister and Maddie from a Decepticon attack by Lockdown. Much happier among the Autobots, she Trans-Scanned a military truck to better fit in with the Autobots, keeping her cannon parts to be used as drink mixing equipment, and relying more on brute strength in a fight to live up to her name better. On top of later gaining special Energon Armor after assisting the Earthbound Energon Master aliens from the Decepticons and Venomcons, Clobber was instrumental in defeating the Quintesson allied Guiltar the ExPrime and his Ultimate Autobots during the final campaign of the Earth conflict.
In the final war on Cybertron that finally defeated Megatron, Clobber, Thompson, Wheeljack, Grimlock and repentant Ultimate Autobot Omega Supreme took down Megatron’s final weapon, the revived War Titan Iaconus.

Irish Wish Review: A Fantasy Filled with Love and Laughter
Tumblr media
Irish Wish, the latest offering from director Janeen Damian, beckons us into a realm where the fantastical meets the all-too-familiar whirlwind of romantic emotions. Starring Lindsay Lohan, who has seemingly found a cozy niche with Netflix following their prior collaboration, this fantasy romantic comedy unfolds against the lush backdrop of Ireland, promising a mix of magic, mirth, and misadventures. With a script penned by Kirsten Hansen, the film aims to strike a delicate balance between the whimsical and the profound, wrapped in the comforting blanket of love stories we have come to cherish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gKXowSyfjM Lohan, returning to the genre that has cherished her, embodies Madeline "Maddie" Kelly with a palpable sense of authenticity and vulnerability. When Maddie's heart gets shattered by the news of her lifelong love marrying her best friend, she opts for grace, diving into the bridesmaid role with a heavy heart in Ireland, the land of legends and leprechauns. The plot takes a mystical turn when Maddie, caught in a moment of desperation, voices a wish for true love, only to find herself in an alternate reality as the bride. Ed Speleers as James Thomas and Alexander Vlahos as Paul Kennedy navigate their roles with commendable charm. Each actor presents a different love archetype that Maddie finds herself entangled with. The chemistry is palpable and occasionally sizzles, although at times it feels as though the narrative does not fully explore these dynamics to their fullest potential. Ayesha Curry, Elizabeth Tan, and the ever-elegant Jane Seymour add depth to the ensemble, bringing humor, wisdom, and a touch of sassiness that enriches the narrative fabric of Irish Wish. The film's captivating Irish setting showcases sprawling landscapes and quaint villages. It's a character in its own right, offering a visual feast that elevates the film's fairy-tale quality. The locale also integrates seamlessly with the film’s thematic elements. It underscores the idea that love, much like the Irish countryside, is wild, unpredictable, and breathtakingly beautiful. However, Irish Wish doesn't escape certain pitfalls common to the genre. The plot, for all its magical twists, occasionally treads into the realm of predictability. The contrived central conflict weakens the narrative's potential for greatness. The movie lightly explores themes of self-discovery and fate, leaving a desire for a deeper exploration. The movie's heart and humor, however, are undeniable. Lohan shines in her role, captivating audiences with her warmth and wit. Her nuanced performance showcases her ability to anchor a film with charisma and talent. The supporting cast also delivers, providing a balanced mix of levity and gravitas that propels the story forward. From a technical standpoint, Irish Wish benefits from Janeen Damian's direction. It maintains a brisk pace and a light touch, ensuring that the film's fantastical elements feel grounded in emotional truth. The soundtrack serves as an effective emotional and atmospheric complement to the on-screen action. The film excels at depicting the complexity of love within a wish-fulfillment fantasy, without avoiding real emotions. It celebrates the idea that finding true love involves both magical and painful moments. Irish Wish is a comforting, enjoyable addition to the romantic comedy genre. It offers escapism without straying too far from emotional authenticity. Its charm lies in its familiar tropes, heartfelt performances, and the scenic beauty of Ireland. The film is a reminder that sometimes, a little dose of magic and laughter is just what we need. Lindsay Lohan and the cast bring to life a tale as inviting as an Irish pub on a cold day. It might not offer any surprises, but its warmth and cheer are more than enough to warrant a visit. Read the full article

In my preparation to live a life more outdoors I have not used AC or heat in my house for the past year. It wasn’t really an experiment, but here’s what happened:
The temperature range outside for the past year (including wind chills and heat indexes) was approximately 26F during the predawn hours in winter to 110F at the height of the day in summer. The temperature in my house probably ranged from about 40F to 90F, but I had no way to actually measure this so it’s just an educated guess.
Obviously we’re skipping over spring and fall, because you don’t need climate control for those seasons anyway. 
Let’s start with winter, since we’re heading that direction again. For me, the main challenge of winter is honestly braving the cold for 30 seconds when I need to put on a bra to go running. That’s really it. I usually don’t wear one to work because I’m usually wearing three layers of clothing, so I don’t need one, but if I go to the town gym I have to change (the gym does not have climate control either). I don’t really have a solution for this other than to just suck it up, or wear a bra to sleep (which I used to do all the time in high school, but I dislike it now).
In order to stay warm in the winter, I have three main methods: kotatsu, blankets, and hot shower. I’m almost always wearing 2-3 layers of clothing and fingerless gloves, which I usually sleep in too. I usually do laundry biweekly in winter, and weekly (or more) in the summer. So that’s a point for winter (also no bugs). Anyway. 
Kotatsu is pretty obvious--it’s warm under there. I know my housemates have already broken their’s out for the season, but honestly I’m gonna try to not use mine this year as an added challenge, I guess? Idk, I’m also just lazy and don’t feel like getting it out. And also because...
Blankets get the job done pretty well. This apartment came with 5 million blankets. I’m currently using 3/4 of the Main Blankets on my bed, but the third one is still too hot sometimes at night. Otherwise, as long as I put my hood up I’m never cold at night or when I’m sitting in bed, which is usually what I’m doing at home.
Hot shower is the third method. I love this one because it literally gives you cold immunity for like up to an hour afterwards, especially if its Too Hot. I once got out of a Too Hot bath and ended up sitting in my underwear in my 40F room for awhile after because I was Too Hot. 
The secret fourth method is exercise, which I do a lot of because it is my Lifestyle. You have to change quick though bc your sweat will get cold fast. (then I take a hot shower, and I’m basically cold immune until its time to go to bed again lol)
Summer is a lot worse in my opinion, mainly because it’s humid. It’s literally sweat central and because this is rural Japan, I can’t exercise shirtless outside. It definitely makes me want to go outside though, because sweating is much better when youre moving than when you’re just sitting somewhere. 
I don’t really have multiple methods of cooling off except for cool showers (of which I took many), occasionally putting an ice pack on my torso when I felt like it, and using a fan (which is extremely necessary in order to not sweat, and also dry my body off when I come back from exercising. I will literally sweat through an entire shirt in 10 mins, the humidity is fucking insane, I have wrung 100ml of sweat from my short shorts, I have disinfected the home gym mats after using them for those aforementioned 10 mins. The chewing gum in my kitchen was ruined simply bc it was humid. I had to clean mold off the kitchen floors and tables. Just imagine constantly being soaking wet if you’re not in front of a flowing air source, that is my life. Luckily I derive a very masochistic joy from this, so it could be worse). I keep the windows open literally 24/7, and the fan runs whenever I’m in the house basically, unless it’s raining because it’s significantly cooler then. I essentially do not wear clothes in my house in the summer. 
The worst and completely unanticipated consequence of this though was the appetite loss. I lost approximately 10 lbs on accident, because I wasn’t eating lunch (mainly bc I wasn’t in school and I just didn’t feel hungry). This really fucked with my health and made me much more prone to passing out, especially during exercise. I was also iron deficient, though I don’t actually know what the cause was, because I was tested for that at the beginning of June. My hair was definitely falling out though. Anyway, when fall came around, I gained it all back. It’s wild to notice how my appetite changes from season to season. Now that its getting colder again, my dinners are much bigger than they used to be. 
Overall, I’m gonna keep doing this, because i’m very used to it now. I just have to make myself eat lunch when summer comes around again. Cold spaghetti never tasted so good let me tell you. Also, my electricity bill is like half of what my housemates are, so thats fun.

A story about my uncle a dead cristal
Tumblr media
What this means is that when the beast intermittently rests its eye, Maddie and the protagonist must make a dash to the next ledge or platform without being seen. Forewarned by foreign wall etchings companion Maddie has learned to decipher, those who dare enter the tarragon’s lair must remain still whilst the dragon casts its eye over its lair. Although the characters he stumbles across en route are distinctly and unashamedly whimsical - Maddie a particular gem from a colony of ‘salamander-like’ beings of whom Uncle Fred has been escaping to - there are some serious underlying themes such as the process and potentially life changing decisions associated with the coming of age, and the understanding and acceptance of foreign creeds and cultures both of which the game pulls off with aplomb.Īnother area in which A Story About My Uncle excels is a set piece wherein a one-eyed dragon guards a cave entrance the player wishes access to. This technical bravado is offset by a fairly lighthearted and fairytale-like plot as the young hero quests to find his lost relative. It truly is the stuff of childhood dreams. As the game progresses, these moments get steadily more difficult, yet in turn even more rewarding, as the player must negotiate the path of orbiting rocks, hitch rides from the vanes of giant windmills, and lasso shattering cave stalactites whilst flying through the air, all in search of Uncle Fred and his trail of flare-ridden abandoned campsites. Quite often such freedom leads to brutal misadventure, however dusting yourself down and instantly resuming from the generously well-paced smattering of checkpoints becomes more of a joy than a hinderance, for the freedom of flying through the air and successfully landing that often attempted jump is a brilliant feeling - one testament to the game’s ultra tight controls. Later on in the narrative, rocket powered boots are acquired which allow for an extra boost forward and upward, and collecting power crystals adds extra grapples per jump all of which facilitates extra challenging parkour as the obstructions gradually match the player’s ability. His suit, equipped with a power-infused glove, allows for boosted jumps, sending our hero metres into the air, whilst a single-use plasma grappling line can be deployed onto any susceptible surface, hurtling him in any such direction.Ī range of combinations can, and often must, be utilized in order to overcome the myriad of obstacle course-type challenges which lay afoot from the outset, such as coupling sprint with the powered leap, thus thrusting the player off sheer cliff faces free-falling in turn towards the next ledge. What begins with a fairly run-of-the-mill introductory section comprised of snooping around an abandoned workshop, quickly dives head first into the realms of childhood fantasy after the young hero claims an ‘adventure suit’ designed by his uncle, and is transported to an alternate dimension after stumbling upon a teleportation device in a secret observatory.įloating islands lined with obscure and mysterious glowing hieroglyphics precede dark chasms, floating cities, and icy temples as our nameless frontman plunges from great height into the new world’s depths, spared from injury by his newly acquired magical mechanical ensemble. She begs for a bedtime story based around an adventure, and our hero duly obliges with a tale from his youth: the time when he set out to track down his intrepid and adventuresome, and at that time missing, uncle. A Story About My Uncle is no less out there in its approach, however still manages to maintain a strong sense of believability even within the bounds of its profoundly makebelieve narrative, making this a very intriguing and equally worthwhile three dimensional first person platformer.Īnother entry into the increasingly popular non-combative exploratory genre, A Story About My Uncle begins with its protagonist, and narrator of the game, putting his daughter to bed. At first glance, A Story About My Uncle’s developer Coffee Stain Studios may ring a bell - perhaps the sort of bell found tethered around an antelope’s neck - as the Swedish developer is the team behind the slightly insane Goat Simulator.

Maddie has been left unattended in the castle for far too long, having gotten lost in its seemingly endless depths while trying to look for the Count. She can hear someone approaching, already opening her arms for the veggie vamp...only to be met by Igor. She slowly lowers her arms, her cheeks burning like a wildfire. She isn't even sure what to say to save the situation. {tuesdayscanons} 《enjoy having a small hen staring at you in fear, Igor lol》
@tuesdayscanons
This was rather an unpleasant revelation that he was forced to abide with as there was no news of the master having a romantic interest or a “girlfriend” as he called it. Definitely something he would like to have some notification of beforehand at first. If this one was not fit to be the count’s love, then she would get re-purposed for something else. Perhaps as a drink for the vampires for whenever they would come over for their next family reunion or occasional drop by.
As the hen practically stood in front of him so awkwardly, the vulture’s yellow eyes were not very enthused or understanding of what she was trying to do. The position of his beak however, remained the same and so was his posture. Igor could see that the girl was embarrassed, and would not try to pour any more salt on her wounds there, but he would in another area. 
Tumblr media
“I take it that this castle is a bit… difficult for you to navigate through?”
