2023.06.05 12:40 burningexeter Currently, I'm in the middle of writing an Attack On Titan fanfiction before the anime's finale comes out. Not only is it a sequel to the anime but also is a well written and interesting yet subversive Mikasa x Historia fanfiction. Read the run-through below on the body text.
| The fic I'm writing is on Wattpad but when I'm finished with it, I'll carry it over to Archive Of Our Own. Said fic is called "Attack On Titan: A Former Queen, A Former Soldier" and it goes like this — Set two years after the Rumbling and one year after the bid returned Mikasa's scarf to her, we follow Historia Reiss - now under her old alias Christa Lenz - in hiding on the modern side of the world that is exactly how it is today and has ostracized Marley and Eldia.... until the most recent events, with her daughter Ymir as she wants to finally have and give a decent, normal, quiet life for her child and herself. They live in Argonauts Bay, a large seaside town that's an oddball cross between the Goon Docks and certain London/San Francisco housing and their home is a former bookstore that they made into their own living quarter with plenty of wonderful books still on the shelves. The whole first two acts of the story follow Historia in a not-so-normal day in the life of her as she has to pay what she owes to three certain people and we follow her as we explore her mindset, how she interacts with others, her love for her daughter and her new life now that she's left being the Queen of the Walls. Then all that changes when the third/final act comes around, after a very long day and when it's dark now, Historia comes home to find Mikasa in her home, having tracked her down as she's now a bounty hunter and hearing about Christa Lenz on a certain travel, and the result is an incredibly intense stand-off, reunion and cat-like game as Mikasa, in a sick and twisted way, toys with Historia in her own macabre and catty but sexual way. Mikasa tricks Historia into being right where she wants her and then proceeds to both assault and sexually assault the latter. Historia though stands up to her and Mikasa, through pinning Historia on her kitchen fridge, finally explains why she's here and it's because she wants to start a new life with her. See, after the bird returned her scarf, she realized she had to move on from Eren, she needed to move on. She's already been around half of the "new world" more than anyone on either Marley or Paradis from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Albuquerque, El Paso, Portland, Baltimore, Bright Falls and so on. But then her past that she was trying to run from all finally caught up with her and the result made her a bounty hunter. Her incredible ODM skills and fighting skills proved more than exceptional when hunting and killing "human sleaze" that are wanted dead or alive. She leaves some alive but most dead even joking in a macabre way that human heads pop off in rather peculiar ways. However after taking in another wanted fugitive, she heard of the inhabitants nearby in Argonauts Bay - one of which immediately caught her attention by her name, appearance description and personality. That being Christa Lenz. It's then that she realized what was happening to her and what she was becoming. Not wanting to be this, she sees Historia as the only way out - the only ticket out of this life. Mikasa explains that she and Historia have a lot in common especially with their relationships with Eren and Ymir and dealing with their losses. After a struggle to escape her grasp, Mikasa says to Historia "I've been waiting all day for this" now having had enough of Historia. Historia, in a mix of fear and confusion, asks in horror "W-what do you mean?" not realizing what's about to happen before it's too late. A devilish smile comes across Mikasa's face as she begins to laugh just as devilishly, she licks her lips in a creepy and unnerving yet sexual way, she looks Historia right in the eyes and closes in, chuckling to herself. Historia then bursts out screaming in horror, her mouth wide open, her pupils dilated, her eyes bulging out and her hair moving away from her neck and head. There's nothing but silence for five seconds then we cut or rather go back and see that Mikasa is kissing Historia, in still shock, with the former's tongue deep in the latter's mouth. The latter gives in and the two proceed to make out and have sex. After having sex, Mikasa and Historia just lay on the floor looking up, contemplating what just happened. Especially Historia who asks herself out loud "Oh, Historia.... what have you done?". The two of them have a natural but heartfelt conversation after this and discuss their lives then and now, the struggles of raising a child all by yourself in this world, their childhoods, the numerous individual places Mikasa's been, watching their mothers killed right in front of their eyes as kids, how the sex was, the impact that Eren and Ymir made on them and last but not least, Mikasa sincerely apologizing and begging for Historia's forgiveness. Before Mikasa shows Historia where her daughter is as promised, she pulls a beautiful golden ring out and asks her "Will you marry me?" to which a hesitant Historia finally replied with the answer Mikasa has wanted to hear all this time - "Yes". Historia is reunited with her daughter who was tied up and hidden in a cabinet by Mikasa as she introduces a tearful and scared Ymir to her new mother - Mikasa Ackerman. The final scene takes place at the end of the very next day as Mikasa and Historia, holding each other, look out into the sunset with the latter asking the former "Mikasa, what really was Eren for you?" and the former answering "My ending and my beginning". Details: These are the places that Mikasa tells Historia where she's been to.... Bright Falls, Sunnydale, Farmington, Charming, Santo Padre, Agrestic, Salem's Lot and Hawkins. Shared universe? Probably. Well, what do you guys all think and be honest. submitted by burningexeter to attackontitan [link] [comments] |
2023.06.05 12:33 Silnasan GW's approach to scarcity - no critique, honest question
I am really curious and want to know your opinion - is scarcity of items part of GW's strategy, or an inevitable by-product of the huge franchise?
I know Warhammer40K would be a better channel to ask the question, but they deleted my post saying I broke some rule (couldn't find out which).
I have read sophisticated opinions about how GW intentionally makes some products very limited to be able to generate hype (they sure do not seem to generate more profit - the scalpers do). I am talking about the likes of Kill Team boxes, where you may get like 20 boxes per a country of 10mil people. One-time delivery and that's the end. Imagine how many resources had to be invested into the rules design of the team, the sculpts, new molds etc.
We know, that for example in Europe, GW recently had a big distribution problem. So not being able to get things delivered even from the official GW e-shop makes sense. Also their communication was tragic (speaking from a customer exeperience), so I don't think that was intentional.
We also know, that GW boast a huge stock of Leviathan and so it would make sense to push all other product manufacturing aside. So what do you think?

2023.06.05 12:31 Obvious-Ad8135 Any advice on a Crucible-Style set of Encounters for a table full of first time players? 5E
Hello all! Fresh-out-of-the-gate DM here on his first campaign (5E) with players who are all new themselves. I wanted to keep there interests so I decided to make homebrewed weapons/abilities that essentially give the PC an
ultimate attack/ability. I apologize for the long read!
As a few examples:
- We have a dragonborn so I made a buff ability for him as a homage to fire-bending from ATLA ( the player's favorite show)
- Per their backstory the cleric of the party will be able to deal a massive 10d10 fire damage in a once-per-day attack by getting the blessings of his Fire Deity, Kossuth
- Our fighter will acquire a scroll that can manifest 18 weapons from a list of martial artist weapons called the 18 Arms of Wushu.
I still want to make it the process of obtaining them a rewarding experiencing for the players without making it too easy. The idea I came up with was inspired by a video game called Fable. In the game, you could participate in a multi-round deathmatch and come out at the end as "The Champion." If you did it in a certain amount of time, you were given a legendary weapon. Currently, I have the players separated for their own individual "trap rooms" in order to test their investigative abilities.
After the trap rooms, I want to put them into the multi round fights together, I just don't know how to make balanced combats in this scale -- let alone for first time players.
Does anyone have any advice for creatures or battle mapping to help bring these newcomers into the community without completely killing their spirits?

2023.06.05 12:19 Zapstack23 Coming to terms with my unsatisfaction in life (Introspective Vent)
The following vent is much more of a general vent about my life and thoughts than a vent about a specific bad day or topic. I'm going to be writing quite a bit, so if you don't have the time I don't recommend trying to read it, because I feel you should only read it if you can make it to the end of my vent.
I'm posting this because I just wanna have all my thoughts spilled over a public page. For no particular reason. Maybe people may see this and some may give advice, and while I'd definetly appreciate it, getting advice is not the MAIN reason I am writing this here. I just need to have this sitting here because it's just what my brain is telling me to do.
I have been wanting to write this for maybe a month now, but just never got around to to it until now.
First, a lil' introduction:
I am a guy, I am 16 years old and I was born in Romania and been living here since.
Ok, now without further ado, I will begin listing off the 5 main topics that have been frustrating me for the past few years.
1 My Ethnicity and Its Bullshit
I am a gypsy. More specifically a "spoitor", one of the many subgroups of gypsies in Romania.
Now, I know what you may think when reading that, but no, I am not talking about racism.
I have never been made fun of or bullied for being a gypsy.
So it's not a racism problem. Rather, it's more about the gripes I have with my ethnicity's people myself. More specifically the dumb traditions and culture and how they affect me:
-Our traditions We have so many unnecessarily trashy aspects to our traditions, especially marital ones. So basically, in most cases at least, the groom and bride's parents choose their spouses for them, or at least heavily influence their decision. It usually goes like this: The groom's parents find a bride for their son. They pay the bride's parents money for their daughter's hand in marriage for their son. So the groom and bride end up together because the parents and maybe other relatives decided so, instead of just two people falling in love with eachother and deciding to get married. Although I see that many of the new weds among my close and distant relatives are seemingly happy with their spouses, so I'm not exactly sure about every aspect. But yeah, there's arranged marriage. Now, besides the arrangement of the marriage, I've also noticed many of the grooms and brides pairs are related to some degree, usually not to the point of first degree cousins though. Nonetheless, incest is not as frowned upon in our ethnicity as you'd hope. So there's that. Now besides the fact that many marriages are arranged, and there's a pretty high chance the espoused are somewhat related, most of these marriages occur when the weds are between the ages of 12-17. So, we also got a whole lotta teen marriage. And also, they usually have kids soon after their marriages, so teen pregnancy is also common. And besides their weird obsession with early marriage, they also put so much emphasis on virginity that there's a tradition where relatives will gather at an event where the groom and bride have to have sex for the first time while a white shirt is placed under them, and one of the old relatives (I can't remember exactly which) then takes that bloodied shirt and shows it off to the people at the event to demonstrate the bride's virginity. Oh, I forgot to mention that it's mandatory only for the bride to be a virgin at the time she marries her husband, but the groom could have as many bodies as he wants by then. Which brings me to my next point: Gender inequality. And overall overbearing gender roles you're expected to adhere to.
-Our culture It's really dumb and douchey. Who would have thought? There's a great emphasis on acting grander and richer than you are, excessive cockiness and flexing, unnecesarry conflicts, a lack of education, and overall being an ignorant, insensitive, close-minded and conservative douchebag. Most of our people are homophobic, racist and very judgemental in general. They are very loud and obnoxious towards people, and lack self awareness. They never bring facts to their arguments, instead they just bark at eachother and maybe eventually fight dirty using blades, swords or axes, and over the most stupid irrelevant shit. They also have unconventional, risky jobs. And they're also way more superstitious and guillible on average than non-gypsies. Also more likely to abuse things like alcohol/smoking, and to become beggars. Many of them have improper hygiene. And the kids want to grow up too fast. I could just go on and on. But that's not really culture, it's more of a general personality and way of living.
When it comes to things like music and fashion though, we don't fare much better. Although I do have to say things like that are subjective.
And in my subjective opinion, our music and fashion sucks ass.
The music spoitor gypsies (and gypsies in general) listen pretty much exclusively to is called "manele" (it's very popular with non-gypsy romanians in general too). It's kinda like a oriental type of music with whiny melodic vocals, and there's other variations of it in other balkanic neighbours and middle eastern countries. The drums are pretty much the same in all songs, most of the manele singers sound very similar, and just in general all manele songs sound like eachother. But yeah, I just don't personally fuck with this type of music, however it's pretty much the only music my parents and relatives listen to, so I constantly am bombarded with it. Therefore I've kinda started despising it, even though I'm expected to like it too.
Music aside, my people's sense of fashion sucks ass too. Again, in my subjective opinion.
It's basically tacky ass designs and patterns, slim fitting clothes, edgy text and things like Gucci/Versce type lions and gold prints and just a whole bunch of goofy shit. Also a lot of ugly designer clothes (usually fake). It's more about the brand than the look. But yeah, overall many ridiculous patterns, eyesore bright colors, childish matchy ass outfits and overall clothes that just scream "Give me attention!!!". And once again, I am expected to want to dress like that too. Which I don't.
And how do these things affect me? Well, I am constantly expected to like and embrace/adopt their culture and adhere to their traditions too, and frankly, that's just not who I am, and attempting to be like that just gives me identity crisises and a lack of self expression. Fuck that. Trashy ass culture. It's like you took many of society's flaws and dialed 'em up to 11.
2 My Loneliness and Lack of Connections
I don't have many friends. Outside of my cousins, I'm genuinely friends with only one dude at school. And we pretty much only see eachother at school. Now don't get me wrong, he's a great guy, spending time with him is nice, we have many common interests to discuss and similar moralities. However, I would really like to connect to more people, and have a group of friends I know I could depend on to have fun and hang out with.
I mean there are 2-3 other guys that I don't go to high school with but I went to middle school with. We were friends in middle school and hung out sometimes. I'm technically still friends with them, but we haven't really been seeing eachother. Maybe only once every few months. At this point we're more like acquaintances on good terms than friends. And I just... don't feel very connected to them anymore. Like when we hang out something doesn't feel right. There was this one dude whom me and my best (and only) friend used to be a trio with. But him and my friend got into a fight once and stopped being friends. Then I was basically split between hanging out with the two separately, and eventually I kinda stopped talking to the dude. We never told eachother officially that we're not friends anymore or something, we just kinda fell out of connection with eachother, and I remained friends with my current best friend.
Yet once again, even though I do have one great friend, and a couple of nice cousins I hang out with, it just doesn't feel like enough to me for some reason.
In general, in public at least, I'm a quiet, awkward and shy person, mostly with new people, which made it pretty hard for me to make other friends. I'm introverted too, so my social battery is pretty low. Yet I don't want to be alone, I just don't know how not to be. I've missed quite a few opportunities of meeting new people and meeting older acquaintanes again, yet I was kept away from it by my social anxiety.
I spend most of my time alone, but not necessarily always because I want to.
I desperately want to have a bigger, connected group of friends to hang out with on the daily. Play fun games and record silly videos with them. Discuss personal issues and encourage eachother. Look at the stars in the night sky together and relax. But it just isn't happening, and I don't know how to get over my social anxiety and awkwardness, and it feels impossible to achieve.
I cannot hold a proper conversation with someone if I haven't known them for a while already. I'm reluctant to speak to the staff at stores or tell people on the bus that I need to get off the bus, because I keep fearing people care more than they actually do, and am afraid of judgement. I am especially awkward when it comes to talking to girls.
I feel weirdly envious seeing people hang out in large groups or having a significant other, makes me feel so left out and pathetic, like I'm missing out. I can't help but blame myself, because what else am I supposed to do?
I hate having social anxiety and a lack of social skills. It's eating away at my happiness anytime I remind myself of it.
And when it comes to my parents, well, although I'd say we're on at least ok terms with eachother, their conformation to the previously mentioned gypsy culture they try to enforce on me sours our interactions on the daily, and we just kinda have nothing in common to hang out over. And whenever I try being my true self and express my interests to them they judge me for it. So my relationship with my parents always goes from pretty alright to ohmygodimgonnafuckingleavethishouse. And through it all, I can't help but feel disconnected from them, which is so weird and kinda sad, because I felt genuine love for them when I was younger.
And when it comes to siblings, I have none.
So yeah, I'm lonely and I hate it. But actually trying to interact with new people is scary and tiring, so I hate that too. It's like an endless fucking vicious cycle of feeling depressed due to loneliness and feeling anxious due to attempting to socialize.
3 My Insecurities and Unfortunate Circumstances
I have a major insecurity: I'm a short dude. 5'5 (165 cm). I know it's not something I can change, therefore not something I should waste time and energy focusing on, but I just can't help it. When I see younger people and girls my age taller than me and I feel so bitter. It's just how my brain works. I get fucking happy when I see dudes shorter than me, how fucked up is that?
Besides that, I'm a little chubby, but I've been working on it and I'm like 6 lbs (3 kg) away from reaching my ideal weight. So that's something I'll fix, but in the moment it's still kinda annoying.
That's where the physical insecurities stop. I consider myself somewhat average to even maybe handsome when it comes to my face, just depends on the day. And I don't have problems like acne or crusty skin.
But now come some inconvenient circumstances that make feel more insecure in other areas.
One of them is my parents not wanting to accept my personal style, the way I wanna dress and have my hair cut, and it makes me feel so restricted and like I can't truly be myself. Which by the way is one of the things souring our relationship. While dressing and doing my hair the way they want me to makes them pleased, it also makes me feel opressed and disingenuous.
Another is that I don't really have my own proper room. I mean yeah, there is this room I sleep in and spend most of my time in, but it's less my room, and more just the only bedroom in our house.
So basically, this is my grandpa's fault. He had quite a huge amount of money but was greedy with it, so when he got our house constructed he only built one bedroom for all three of us (me, my mom and my dad). I slept with my parents 'til pretty late because of this, as I only started sleeping alone at the age of 9, when my parents moved to sleep on an extendable couch that becomes a bed, in the living room.
But yeah, the room I sleep is just a bed and a TV, with a closet with my parent's clothes in it, while my clothes are in a closet in the living room, the room my parents sleep in. Confusing, I know. But basically it was like it was never planned for me and my parents to sleep separately, which in turn caused the design of our house to be very inefficent and badly thought out.
I just want a desk in my room, you know? Something to put my PC on. It's currently in the living room.
Speaking of my PC, this one is partially my fault, but after having a potato PC since I was 3, I finally upgraded to a new one 2 years ago. My main goal was of course to run games smoothly. But, because I did improper research and my dumb ass thought the amount of RAM was more important than the video card when it comes to games, I got an expensive PC with a good motherboard and 32 GB of RAM, but with a shitty video card since I didn't focus on it. So yeah, there I was, new PC, but games running just as badly as on the old one because I was stupid.
I mean, even if would've had a good PC now, since it sits in the living room as I mentioned earlier I would have possibly been judged by my parents for the games I played on it, even if there was nothing inherently wrong with them.
And yeah I guess having some self-expressive posters and stickers in "my room" would've been nice too, but that's also not a possibility.
But at least somehow I guess my family got the bigger end of the stick. One of my mother's sisters (my aunt ofc), with her 2 daughters and her husband still have to live with my grandparents AND another one of my aunts and her husband, while another aunt lives in a cheap dirty apartment.
So my grandparents made a lot of money, but refuse to use it, therefore my family and my other direct relatives' families have to live in these flawed ways.
But yeah, I can't wait for us to rebuild our house eventually, so I can have my own proper bedroom and so can my parents.
4 My Lack of Productivity
Since I spend most of my time alone, in a room with only a bed, TV and a closet, I end up spending like 85% of my time on my phone.
Thing is, I have a few interests: drawing, animation, music, writing and photo/video editing. It's just that the combination of a lack of a proper personal space and minimal social interaction make me unable to motivate myself to actually pursue any of these interests or practice them as hobbies. I do doodle sometimes on my phone, but that's about as far as it goes. And I don't even at least consume content that would add to my culture, like watching movies/tv shows, reading books/comics or listening to albums. I just either mindlessly scroll through the same 3 social media apps or watch some meaningless video on YouTube, maybe even while snacking on junk food. Or maybe rub one out to porn after spending too much time picking the video.
Oh, have I mentioned that I'm also doing more poorly than ever when it comes to school and my academic endeavors? Oh, I didn't? Well, now I did. I'm not failing my classes, I'm just not putting in as much effort as I could, because it feels meaningless, but this is such a lazy approach.
So I do nothing good with my free time because of the frustration I have with other things in my life. At best maybe I'll hang out with my cousins.
5 My Overthinking Brain
Honestly, my mind might just be my biggest enemy. Pretty much any second I don't distract myself with my phone, my mind is going all out worrying about the most stupid shit. From cringing at that one thing I did years ago, to having existential crises over wondering what comes after death. From panicking about my future job and career to being overly curious to try drugs. My brain is active all the time, yet it chooses to keep on teasing me with problems I shouldn't even worry about. While I may come off as excessively negative in this rant, I actually am a rather optimistic person a good portion of the time, I just have this inconsistent mood, swinging between depressed and hopeful out of nowhere.
It makes me sometimes wish I was just dumber. So I wouldn't have to overthink anything and lose so much time and so many opportunities.
Basically my actual life is very underwhelming and boring while inside my mind I am constantly overwhelmed by the amount of possibilities and things in this world. Sometimes I even thought about suicide, but never actually considered doing it.
At this point I don't know if I may have some mental illness, and I don't know if I'll find out because if I'd tell my parents I want to see a therapist they'd either probably laugh at me or scold me then bring me to church or some shit.
So yeah. Through all these things that make me so unsatisfied with my life, I can't help but think I'm overreacting. Most of these things are pretty insignificant (I think) but there's so many of them it adds up and makes me want to just cry. But I can't. I'm emotionally numb.
And I'm tired. So tired. Physically and mentally (especially).
Just.. Just tired.
I'm tired.

Don't Let Reddit Kill 3rd Party Apps!
What's going on?
A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app
permanently inaccessible to users.
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from
Apollo to
Reddit is Fun to
Narwhal to
BaconReader.
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface
.
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
What's the plan?
On June 12th,
many subreddits will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away
permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because
we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.
The two-day blackout isn't the
goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.
What can
you do?
- Complain. Message the mods of /reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /reddit, such as this one, leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to this post.
- Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join us at our sister sub at /ModCoord.
- Boycott and spread the word...to Reddit's competition! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!
- Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.

2023.06.05 12:18 domiauticko doxy + tretinoin, will acne come back?
my skin was clear all throughout puberty but the second i turned 20 it has been getting progressively worse and worse. went to a derm and got prescribed doxy 100mg for abouth a month, and i just started acnatac (1% clindamycin + 0.025% tret) and skinoren (20% azelaic acid) a week ago. it has been working great, and my skin was almost clear, but my doxy ran out 3 days ago and my derm refused to give me more and told me to just get in the sun.
i'm super scared it'll get just as bad as it was or worse, i already have a few new pimples. i know people usually have a hard time after stopping doxy, but i was wondering if the tret and AA could help mantain the skin i have. apart from those few pimples i pretty much only have PIE and some fungal acne, but i'm treating that with sulfur soap.
i was also considering going on birth control for this, i really just want the skin i had in my teens. have tried every single product under the sun and none of them worked.
my routine: - micellar water: Bioderma Sebium - moisturizer: Eucerin Dermopure adjunctive soothing cream - wait 20 mins then spot-treat with AA
PM is basically the same, except i double-cleanse with the Bioderma Sebium gel and apply tret after moisturizer

Don't Let Reddit Kill 3rd Party Apps!
What's going on?
A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app
permanently inaccessible to users.
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from
Apollo to
Reddit is Fun to
Narwhal to
BaconReader.
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface
.
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
What's the plan?
On June 12th,

2023.06.05 12:11 andy_burn Speed 3 or nimbus
I'm currently in the hunt for the next shoe.
My back ground. 6ft1" 85kg My pace is easy 6.00min/ks and my pb 5k is 27.40. And I'm running 15 to 20ks a week. I am currently ramping up the ks on my way to a 10k race. With just achieving the distance the goal.
I started out running by going to the local shoe store and they fit me with an asics kayano 28. I had nothing to compare it to and it almost made me give up running entirely. Just hated the shoe. Felt so heavy and clunky. Decided I do my own research and opted to try something that wasn't a stability shoe. Went out on a limb and got a pair of asics novablast 3s. I've done 140ks in them and they have been excellent. I have had zero issues with not having a "stability" shoe. And the nb3 just feel so fun to run in.
This brings me to my next shoe. Everything I read on here and watch on YouTube points me to two shoes. They are both very different shoes. Suconey endorphin speed 3 or the asics gel nimbus 25. The reviews and comments about both these shoes are overwhelming great.
I'm a bit lost in which direction to head with a new shoe.
Is it silly to have a nb3 and a nimbus as they are quite similar?
Is a nylon plated shoe a bit over kill for someone running max speed at 5.00 min/k?
Should I be getting both and having a three shoe rotation?
Is there a totally different shoe I should be considering?
Or should I just be happy heading to my 10k goal in my nb3s and not worry about another shoe?

2023.06.05 12:11 NegotiationDry222 Spidermen movies and the protagonist risking the collapse of the universe
I don't know if this is a trend in other media, but the Spidermen movies are the most famous examples.
In Noway Home and Across the Spiderverse: Experts warn the protagonists they could collapse the universe if they abuse time/interdimensional travel. But to save a handful of villains, the protagonist risks killing trillions.
Yet the protagonist is often proven right, and their feelings overcome all. However, morality that works on planet Earth would not hold up with interdimensional travel. By the movies' own rules: Someone's mere existence in a realm they're not supposed to, is a massive threat.
The Spidermen movies are trying to warn against "the Greater Good" mentalities - But these mentalities are usually social constructions within human societies. With a little creative thinking, there can be ways where everyone can benefit at least a little. However, the physics of time travel is not bound by human psychology. You can just "feel hard enough", and the time paradoxes magically go away.
If the movie wants to tackle how to have an ethical existence within time travel - Then the protagonist should already have knowledge about how to safely time travel and how their team could expand their ethics within those limits. Not a new kid who knows nothing and gives a middle finger to warning of a universal collapse.

2023.06.05 12:11 TheGeekyZoologist Jurassic World: The Hegemony of Biosyn (Dominion rewrite) - Important notes, Prologue and Act I
Since we're nearing the one year anniversary of JWD release, I thought it was a good opportunity to share with you the ideas I had for a rewrite of the film. I grouped them in a detailed pitch which I will present this week in a series of five posts. Today's post is about the story's prologue and first act. Tomorrow's will about the second act and so on... This detailed pitch is divided scene by scene and is accompanied by a few notes. It's basically similar to something that someone would present in a pre-production meeting.
However, before you start reading that series of post, I'll suggest that first you check the foreword on this page (
https://archiveofourown.org/works/47647999/chapters/120097705) and secondly that you carefully read the paragraph below, as it's about the connection between that JWD rewrite and my previous rewrites (don't worry, you don't have to read the entirety of my stories before this series of posts, just the information below).
Important notes on my AU:
1) For those who didn't read my previous stories - The stories told in this AU have a darker tone and are more adult than those of the films. Thus don't be surprised by some character actions or events. If they were films, they would be
unsuitable for children under 12 in Europe (and the limit would be probably higher in North America).
Thus, I would say that the Read at your own risk rule applies here for the younger users of this subreddit. I'm not trying to be edgy or whatever. I'm just an adult writing from an adult perspective. Nothing more and nothing less.
- By the late 2010's and early 2020's, there is still a considerable population of de-extinct dinosaurs and pterosaurs in the Five Deaths. An UN-backed paramilitary organization, the Grey Guard, protects the archipelago and had troops on Nublar up until the fall of Jurassic World.
- The Jurassic World park had feathered dinosaurs and Owen's
Achillobator quartet were among those.
- The Fall of Jurassic World happened in 2017 and the Lockwood estate incident in 2019. The Indominus' rampage and the Sibo's eruption happened at the same time while the Costa Rican incident which preceded that of the Lockwood estate happened in the mainland and not on Nublar. Those two incidents are told in
Jurassic World: The Red Queen, my FK rewrite (and which we'll abbreviate as TRQ).
-
Roberta and the mosasaur died after the Fall of Jurassic World. Thus, they are not in TRQ and
The Hegemony of Biosyn. In those stories,
Roberta's role is mainly filled by
Acrocanthosaurus.
- Claire and Owen aren't exactly identical to their versions from the official film canon. In terms of look, Owen is closer to Jason Momoa than Chris Pratt and Claire, while still being a fair-skinned redhead, is a bit taller and more intimidating-looking than BDH.
- In this AU, Claire is a far more morally ambiguous character than Trevorrow's version. She's more outspoken, and has a
the end justifies the means mindset. For a time, she had serious PTSD from the Fall of Jurassic World, during which she was
mauled by the Indominus (which clawed her face and bit off one of her arms). She also didn't create the DPG in this AU (someone else did).
2) Spoilers of the end of The Red Queen necessary to better understand the context and plot of The Hegemony of Biosyn. - The Dinosaur outbreak which resulted from the Lockwood estate incident is less severe than in Trevorrow's version. Dozens of dinosaurs still escaped into the Californian wilderness but by the beginning of
The Hegemony of Biosyn, they hadn't the time to establish considerable wild populations (except perhaps for the smaller species) while the dinosaur alert is mostly restricted to western North America. Broad strokes, there is no "Dinosaurs are everywhere on Earth. We're in deep shit! You're wondering how? Shut up, it's magic!" at the start of this Dominion rewrite but more sporadic incidents here and there and only beginnings of biological invasions in some areas. Moreover, TRQ's epilogue insists more on the propagation of de-extinction technology.
- At the end of TRQ, Claire and Owen are hired as field agents by the World De-extinction Monitoring Centre (WDMC), a UN agency.
- Maisie isn't
adopted by Claire and Owen. In TRQ, she even has limited interactions with them (she gets involved in the incident only when the Indoraptor enters her room) and
Owen isn't her saviour in that story. After the incident, she stayed at the manor with the Lockwood estate employees and just before his death, Lockwood entrusted her to
Wu.
- In the late 2010's, InGen's biggest rivals were Biosyn and Grendel. At the end of TRQ,
a collapsing InGen is bought by Biosyn and Wu hired by the latter's R&D department. - Wu and Claire became sworn enemies when she became park director of Jurassic World (this relation worsened during the park's fall following some revelations) and while she left him alone at the end of TRQ, she told him she'll show no mercy if he has a share of responsibility in another disaster.
3) Notable differences between The Hegemony of Biosyn and Colin Trevorrow's Dominion. - Grant, Malcolm and Sattler are absent. I preferred to leave those characters in peace rather than mistreat them (and even after I finished THOB's detailed summary, I don't see how I could have integrated them in a pertinent way, and there is already many... many characters).
- Most of the fan-service towards the first
Jurassic Park was flushed down in the toilets.
- Barry Sembène is absent too. Not only the reasons of his inclusion in Dominion's story didn't conviced them (how what seemed to be just an animal wrangler ends up being now a secret services agent?) but in this alternative universe, him and Owen had started to fall out during the fall of Jurassic World and at the beginning of
The Red Queen, we learn that he went back to France. I originally intented to make him one of the main characters of a spin-off set in France (and after the events depicted in
The Hegemony of Biosyn) and we would have saw him again only then (wishing to leave dinosaurs behind him, he took a zookeeper position in some zoo in Ile de France, where he works with birds of prey. But a crisis in another part of the country force another of the protagonists (a gendarme) to recruit him due to his experience in InGen's IBRIS program). Thus, the role he's having in Trevorrow's Dominion is given to other characters in
The Hegemony of Biosyn.
- Some characters have a different fate.
- A longer story, sometimes similar to that of a political thriller.
- Additional characters and subplots.
A hypothetical casting for the original characters is available on the Archive of Our Own page linked above.
Without further ado, let's dive in the story.
Prologue
The prologue is set in mid-2022, in a village of the Austrian Alps, near the Italian border. On the village's outskirts, a man is awakened in the middle of the night by the panicked bleating of his goats. After checking them, he is attacked and killed by a mysterious small predator while one of the goats, a black billy, runs away. Nothing is seen of the predator during that sequence but the two-toed tracks it leaves in the ground.
ACT I: The chessboard and the pawns
Drive-in After the prologue in Austria, we move to North America and more precisely an Oregon wood where an
Acrocanthosaurus (a species introduced in TRQ) is being chased by a
Fish and Wildlife Service helicopter. It's basically the drive-in scene from Trevorrow's version except that Roberta is replaced by the
Acrocanthosaurus.
News Montage Soon, the drive-in incident is in the news and we have a news montage with the world situation three years after the Lockwood estate incident. We learn that:
- De-extinction technology is mastered by various organizations across the globe.
- Incidents involving loose de-extinct animals occur from time to time. The controversial Grey Guard, an UN-backed paramilitary organization based in the Five Deaths, has been solicited by various nations to help their authorities deal with those incidents. The USA are however among the nations who refuse to let them intervene on their soil and instead, the US government use the CIA's Dangerous Species Division (which recruited several former InGen employees like Doctor Kajal Dua).
- Mantah Corp fell during those three years while Grendel was considerably weakened after some deadly incidents in Cameroon and southern India (one of their consequence is the outbreak of a dinosaur-related encephalitis in Cameroon, quite similar to one which occurred in Costa Rica in the late 2010s), leaving Biosyn as the number one in the field of genetic engineering.
- All of its biggest rivals now out of the equation, Biosyn has a hegemony and is thriving more than ever despite heavy criticism by some people who bring out the corporation's past controversies (like a certain rabies vaccine test in Chile). In a conference scene, Zoe Murdoch, Biosyn's vice president presents their newest creations, which includes variants from species already introduced in the series (She compares InGen's tyrannosaur, original trilogy's Raptor,
Triceratops,
Compsognathus and
Quetzalcoatlus to Biosyn's. The raptor is feathered, the rex and trike are more in line with modern scientific depictions, the Compy is feathered and docile enough to be sold as a pet, while the quetzal is more pleasant looking than InGen's flying abominations which massacred people during the Fall of Jurassic World). The report also precise that Biosyn created tailored and more docile dinosaurs and use the example of the pack of featherless raptors they made foloaned to motion picture company
Europacorp for one of their action films, showing footage of featherless and boxy-headed raptors jumping from roof to roof during a film shooting, where they were handled as easily as trained big cats or even dogs (This use is possible partly because de-extinct creatures have less rights than modern animals).
- Biosyn is also contracted by several governments, including the US, to capture the loose dinosaurs. To their sanctuary and research facility in the Dolomites valley of Auronzo, they sent some of the escapees from Lockwood's estate and their offspring, the animals which escaped Grendel's facilities in Cameroon and India (A group of
Nasutoceratops and a 2010's style
Spinosaurus are seen during that part of the report), and others... The close ties between Biosyn and the US government are also mentioned (in addition to providing help to the FWS agents, Biosyn has also several important contracts with the government and some people within the Agriculture department and the
Food and Drug Administration are former Biosyn employees).
- However, there are some rumours that the Cameroon and Indian incidents were actually triggered by Biosyn and incriminating proofs were brought before the US congress but the investigation commission, led by Senator Christine West, rejected them.
San Francisco Shortly after this testimony, Guillaume Vuillier, the World De-extinction Monitoring Centre's general director, is seen in the agency's headquarters in San Francisco. Since the US government doesn't seem to be willing to act against Biosyn, he's afraid that the WDMC and its allies have to deal with Biosyn's case alone. After some incidents in the Alps along the border between Italy and Austria involving creatures they presume to be raptors due to the nature of the tracks found, the UN and the Italian and Austrian governments have imposed an inspection on Biosyn's Sanctuary in Auronzo Valley. Vuillier and others suspect that the attacks' perpetrators indeed came from the Sanctuary.
The Inspection Vuillier travels to Venice, where he meets with Dougal Benett, one of his European field agents, and the rest of the inspection group, which includes Mario Viscontini, head of the AISI (Italy's internal intelligence agency), and Giovanni Pazzi, Minister of the Interior. The inspection group then heads to its rendez-vous point with Biosyn, meets Murdoch and Ramsay (both usually work at Biosyn's HQ in Cupertino, California), and then embark on a Biosyn helicopter which takes them to the Dolomites and the Citadel, Biosyn's research facility (Though it's not as pretty as the building from Trevorrow's vision and a little bit more austere-looking, it's still impressive) which overlooks the Sanctuary.
The group inspect the facility, with head of security Lucrezia Pellegrino explaining how the dinosaurs can't leave the valley (through control chips and invisible fence systems), and even get to meet Dodgson, who made sure to hide anything controversial and have everything look in order. Thus, the inspection group doesn't find anything suspicious and returns to Venice. But the WDMC employees and Viscontini weren't fooled by Biosyn's "
Everyone is beautiful. Everyone is nice" presentation, Vuillier points out the Sanctuary's flaws (too small to let a huge number of animals roam it freely, climate is not ideal enough for dinosaurs...) and are aware that controversial, if not illegal research must be conducted in the Citadel's secret wings (as it's way more isolated and hard to access than Cupertino's HQ).
Dodgson is aware of their distrust and both he and Vuillier start moving their pawns on the chessboard.
The DSD In the CIA's DSD headquarters in San Francisco, the division's leader Isaac Gibbon (and perhaps senator West. I'm not yet sure if I include her in this scene or not. She could be visiting the division about funding matters or something like this) attends a presentation made by one of his agents, Jessica Bigelow. The presentation's topic is Claire Dearing and after summarizing her life (with a few saucy anecdotes and pictures from Claire's youth and early years at JW), Bigelow shows how the fallen park director fascinate some people, especially online, and how she managed to put a part of the public opinion on her side in the recent years after being treated like a pariah in the couple of years that followed the fall of Isla Nublar (Being positively depicted in the DPG documentary Franklin Webb made back in 2019; occasionally making vlogs; appearing on Stephen Colbert's show without her mask and answering his questions with honesty and self-derision...). The CIA agents say that she's the WDMC's most surprising and promising element alongside her fiancé Owen Grady. Both are nicknamed
Vuillier's Wolves by them as they, especially Claire, are tend to be ruthless with those who oppose them, especially in unofficial and borderline illegal missions Vuillier give them, consisting in spying and/or sabotaging nefarious de-extinction related organizations. Bigelow also mention that it's highly probable she's also The Ghost of Nublar, a mysterious figure who challenged the Indominus during the Invasion of Burroughs, when Isla Nublar fell.
The ranch One night, somewhere in the western US (could be Nevada like in Trevorrow's version), a trio of people is seen breaking out in a ranch-like facility. Once they're in its heart, the group split up, with one of its members heading towards another building. The two others, revealed to be Zia Rodriguez and Franklin Webb from the Dinosaur Protection Group (which is led by Zia, as the organisation's founder resigned at the end of TRQ) enters a warehouse which contains rows of cages with baby ceratopsians. While Zia and Franklin film the evidences of the animals' mistreatment, we return to their mysterious companion, whose face is concealed by a balaclava. However, an attentive viewer can recognize her green eyes and her prosthetic hand: It's Claire, who's on an unofficial mission for the WDMC. After avoiding or neutralizing some guards, she breaks out in the facility's offices. There, she discovers documents which might contain indicate a connexion between the illegal dinosaur exploitation and Biosyn (who could be selling embryos, eggs or juveniles to those exploiters before denouncing or sabotaging them years later, being paid by the government for capturing the dinosaurs and finally sending them to their Sanctuary). After this infiltration segment, ensues an action scene where our protagonists have to escape the facility aboard a vehicle stolen by Claire. During this scene, she seriously injures or even kill one guard, something she doesn't care much about at the moment but which will have some consequences.
The following morning, Claire phones Peggy Zubiri (Guillaume Vuillier's assistant, who sometimes act as a "Mission control" person for Claire and her colleagues) to tell her that she has the evidences they were looking for. The former director of Jurassic World then has a discussion with the two DPG members in which Zia laments that despite all her organization's actions, it seems that things aren't evolving in the good direction for de-extinct animals and that the morale within the DPG is at its lowest. They then departs for San Francisco, where Claire has to give Peggy the documents she found before returning to her and Owen's cabin.
The wranglers and the thieves We then cut to Owen, who's in the middle of a WDMC-US FWS joint operation somewhere in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where they have to capture some dinosaurs (candidates could be Dryosauruses or juvenile Gallimimuses and Hadrosaurs, as wrangling adults on horseback is quite unrealistic to be honest). However, as they are leading the captured dinosaur(s) back to their base camp, our group has an encounter with Rainn Delacourt and his men. It plays out like in the extended version of Trevorrow's film, with Owen and his companions being forced to give the animal(s) to Rainn. However, just as Rainn's team are taking the dinosaur(s) away, Owen tells one of the FWS agents that this situation is only temporary, as Rainn will soon get a surprise...
Maisie In Orick, Maisie Lockwood exits the estate to go biking in the area. A scene where she encounters some dinosaurs like in the film might be included here. O'Hara (the old lady who participate to her kidnapping in Trevorrow's film) is seen watching her. She returns to the manor just before the evening. The place is not as vibrant as before (it's almost a ghost manor. As it's the autumn, the place would even look ominous), with only a handful of employees remaining, including Theo Lomas, the man who saved her from the Indoraptor three years ago and who now works as the estate's guard. Officially, Henry Wu became Maisie's foster father when Benjamin died but the geneticist, who was assimilated by Biosyn when it bought InGen at the end of TRQ, now lives in the Dolomites facility and his visits to Orick are rare. Thus, Theo became Maisie's true foster father in addition to being the closest thing to a friend for her. He expresses his worries about her long excursions outside but as she's started to become a rebellious teenager, things are tense.
Vuillier's interview We cut to an interview of Guillaume Vuillier on the French television set just a few days after the Dolomites Inspection. At first, the journalist ask questions about the inspection of Biosyn's complex and the incidents in the Alps before addressing the rumour which says that the masked individual who recently attacked illegal dinosaur breeders might be a WDMC agent, Claire Dearing to be precise (as the colleagues of the deceased guard(s) claimed the attacker was a woman with a prosthetic arm). The journalist brings out another case where Claire made veiled threats to a suspect while on an official mission (with said suspect declaring she almost acted like a Gestapo member or something like this), and as Claire is Vuillier's subordinate, the journalist ask if he intent to sanction her. Annoyed, Vuillier retorts that she acted on legitimate defence and that those people had the choice to cooperate but didn't. Having noticed strange in the journalist's attitude, he suspect that the French government (Due to certain events in TRQ I won't name to not spoil you, the latter has Vuillier and the couple in their radar) paid them and tried to discredit him through that topic. The interview makes some buzz, enough to attract the attention of Odegaard, Vuillier's boss and the leader of the UN environment programme (the character is mentioned but never seen).
Sightings map We get several little family scenes with Claire, Owen and Sigurd, their four-year old son. One of those scenes shows Owen briefly looking at a map he pinned in their office, depicting California and the neighbouring states. On it, he put Blue's sightings. The last of those was in Yosemite area, where the Raptor Whisperer searched the
Achillobator earlier in the autumn but to no avail.
In the meantime, we learn that Rainn was arrested after the authorities followed the tracking chip Owen put in the animal the poacher stole. With the animal seized by the FWS and him heavily compromised on a judicial standpoint, Rainn is raging.
Nyamu Just after his return to San Francisco, Vuillier receives a video call from Lester Nyamu, a friend and colleague from the UN environment programme's HQ in Nairobi. After that interview in the French media, Nyamu tells Vuillier that Odegaard fears the bad publicity Claire might give to the WDMC and wants to send him to the US at the end of the winter and have him follow Claire in her missions, acting as an inspector. His inspection will decide if they can keep Claire as a field agent or not.
While on an official field mission, Claire is contacted by Vuillier, who tells her about the current controversy. He announces he is forced to send her back home and have her do teleworking and not participate to any field mission, official or not, until further notice.
Resonating Chamber Stuck at home, Claire takes interest in raptors' behaviour and reads not only her fiancé's IBRIS stuff but also whatever the WDMC has on the topic, including reports from the scientists stationed in the Five Deaths and the testimonies and notes of Alan Grant and Billy Brennan. After watching a video where a group of WDMC scientists and grey guards stops a raptor attack on Sorna by using a resonating chamber identical to the one Brennan made back in 2001, she remembers Owen commissioned a similar one for Achillobators and finds it. She then start learning to use it.
The Palaeontologist As Auronzo Valley has received its first snow falls, we are introduced to Biosyn Sanctuary's resident palaeontologist, the Scotsman Rod Drummond. Dodgson asked him to act as a tour guide for two teenage girls, the daughters of an investor with which he is negotiating, but they are not interested in the slightest about what's he is saying and are on their phones even though there's dinosaurs outside (a group of
Stygimoloch is seen foraging in the snow). Short-tempered (the character is a bit like the lovechild of Gordon Ramsay and
Westworld's Lee Sizemore), Drummond grab one of the phones and smash it against the nearest wall. The girls protest but Drummond gives a long rant in which he almost reveal the Sanctuary's true purpose, something he's really uncomfortable with. When they return, Dodgson ask the girls if they're okay (he has a soft spot for children) and yells at Rod but the palaeontologist ignores him and storms off to his office. Some minutes later, he receives the visit from the girls' father, Nathan Quinn. The investor apologies for his daughters' behaviours and tell Rod that he accepted Dodgson's offer in exchange of a seat in the board of directors.
Bailed out Rainn is bailed out by a mysterious ally and once free, he plans his vengeance upon Owen. He receives a phone call from an unknown woman and first presumes it's her who bailed him out but it isn't the case. She tells him that she has a mission for him, consisting in capturing a particular dinosaur, a blue
Achillobator. Having been told about the relationship Owen had with this animal, Rainn accept the mission, claiming he'll succeed where other poachers failed.
Achillobators There is a time jump to the middle of the winter, just after the New Year. Claire and Owen recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of their meeting and the Raptor Whisperer is in their office, once again studying Blue's moves on the map, trying to discern a pattern or a trajectory. He ends up realizing that she's heading right towards the area where they live. As if to confirm his guess, there is a shot which shows an
Achillobator in the snowy woods.
A few days later, Sigurd, Claire's and Owen's son, is playing in the snow when a young
Achillobator with blue feathers steps out of the nearby woods. It's about to pounce on the child when its mother, none other than Blue, calls it back, recognizing the boy from the Orick incident (she nearly devoured him during it but changed her mind at the last second when she recognized Owen's smell on him). Owen rushes to grab his son and Blue stands before her young. Claire steps out of the cabin and while walking towards her fiancé and their child, she uses the resonating chamber. At first, it seems to calm Blue but the raptor then decides to retreat into the woods with her young. The family go back inside the cabin and the couple have a talk about what just happened and debate about what they should do with the two Achillobators as they can't be left in the wild, both for their own safety and that of the local animals and people. One of them think about telling the
Fish and Wildlife Service but the other retorts that the FWS is likely to send Blue and her young in their complex in Pennsylvania, where the captured de-extinct animals are usually given to Biosyn and flown to Europe, and that they're not sure if Auronzo Valley's sanctuary is truly safe for them. An alternative is suggested, consisting in capturing them without telling anyone but a few trusted people and then bringing them to the local Wildlife Park Owen worked for between JW's fall and the 2019 incidents. This would only be a temporary solution (if Blue kills locals, they're afraid that the park will be targeted) while Claire would negotiate with Vuillier and one of her friends, Lord Francis Clayton, a British aristocrat who owns one of England's largest zoos and wanted to buy Blue during the 2019 auction InGen held at Lockwood estate (a legal one, unlike the one organized by Mills at the same moment). The couple indeed thinks that the two raptors will be safer in the United Kingdom than in the US, where Biosyn's influence is much stronger. During that scene, Owen also gives a name to Blue's young: Victoria, after Victoria Beckham (in TRQ, it's revealed that he originally wanted to name the raptor squad after the
Spice Girls). (Thus, bye bye Beta)
The couple starts planning and organizing the capture operation, even asking the help of Zia as they need a veterinarian, but the news of two hunters mysteriously disappearing in the area reminds them of the situation's urgency. And hearing about this, Rainn Delacourt soon arrives in the area.
Wu's call Wu calls Maisie, telling her he has something important to show her and he invites her and Theo to the Dolomites. As it's about her mother Charlotte, Maisie accepts.
Tragedy in the Sierra Nevada Zia, Franklin and one or two other DPG members, along with a couple of people from the before mentioned wildlife park and one of the FWS agent from the wrangling scene, arrive at Owen's cabin, ready to offer their help in Blue's and Victoria's capture. The couple and their allies set off.
But Rainn and his men finds the raptors first and lure Victoria into a trap. Blue tries to free her and kills all those standing in her way but Rainn mortally wounds her and leaves with Victoria before Owen can stop him. During the skirmish, one of the DPG members and the FWS agent are also wounded and Claire and Franklin are forced to drive them to the nearest clinic while Owen, Zia and the others search for Blue. When they find her, they realize she's in agony and Zia tells Owen that this time, she can't save the
Achillobator. With great difficulty, Owen takes the decision of putting an end to Blue's suffering. She is buried in a secret location deep in the woods and just before he, Zia and their colleagues departs, Franklin tells Claire that this failed mission was the final straw and that he'll leave the DPG and consider a job offer he recently received, arguing that when amateurs try to make things right, innocents gets hurt and that they should let those kind of issues to competent authorities.
Claire then informs Vuillier about the incident.
Leaving Orick O'Hara, the Biosyn employee dispatched at Orick, picks up Maisie and Theo at the manor and they leave the estate.
End of Act I. See you tomorrow for Act II.

2023.06.05 12:10 AutoNewsAdmin [US] - Father of teen killed in Alabama mass shooting: ‘America is tearing itself down’
2023.06.05 12:10 W1zzardbee The recurring metaphor of "words"
I've noticed that "words" is a recurring metaphotheme in Guilty Gear songs.
All the examples I could find of „words“ being used as a metaphor:
The Roar of the Spark: "Under the lonely moon / In an influx of words / This road shines with my colors"
Divide my Heart: "Gathering, I picked up many words / Absorbed into a book and didn't hear you call“ The Hourglass: „There are only few words I learned to say“
The Smell of the Game: „If the words killed me / I don't need a new world order“; „If the words made you / I don't need a new world order“
All I can do: „Nothin changes by words“
Coming Home: „I'm here waiting for your words“; „But those words just seem to fade away“
Soryteller: „Please spread these words forever“
Sky should be high: „The more words, the less I get“
Blank: „I did not want to believe / such words “that's the way it goes““
Alone Infection: „It increases words“ Rock parade: „Words I want to turn into facts“
The Name of Heaven: „I wonder what words are waiting for me“
The Kiss of Death: „Words that reach noone“
The Circle: „And if the words that won’t go / Ways to rule my head…“
The Gravity: „Words know the morning light“
„Words“ generally seems to stand for either information or the future/fate, but there are several exeptions, like in „Sky should be high“ or „The Kiss of Death“, that don't quite fit into this interpretaion. These could of course be exeptions, but I think there has to be some sort of cosistent meaning behind the metaphor, as it is used so often. What do you think?

2023.06.05 12:09 MonaSimpsonMS The Simpsons Finally Revealed How Homer Lost His Mom
Despite addressing her absence and changing whereabouts a few times, it took
The Simpsons 33 seasons to finally explain how Homer lost track of his mother. In its many years on the air, the long-running animated series has only offered a little insight into Homer’s relationship with his mother, Mona Simpson. She first appeared in
The Simpsons season 7 and periodically cropped up later in the series, before eventually becoming one of the very few
characters killed off on The Simpsons.
However, despite establishing that Mona was never happy with Homer’s father,
The Simpsons never explained how Homer lost contact with her. The show did mention that Grandpa told Homer his mother was dead at a young age, but a
Simpsons season 33 episode retconned this and explained how Homer almost reunited with Mona in his teens. Surprisingly, it was his closeness with Grandpa that led Homer to miss out on reconnecting with his mother.
The Simpsons season 33, episode 9 “Mothers and Other Strangers,” showed a flashback of a teenage Homer trying to track down Mona and succeeding very briefly, but his decision to help Abe out of a jam instead of following his mom meant he gave up the chance to catch up with her. Although the revelation is a
sweet Simpsons moment, it is undercut by Abe telling Homer he made the wrong decision by coming back to help his struggling father. While the trio was being pursued by FBI agents through a ravine, Homer turned around to help Grandpa after he became caught between two rocks, rather than continuing to pursue Mona. This explanation is the first time that
The Simpsons has depicted Homer choosing Abe over his mother rather than simply being separated without a choice in the matter.
It is perhaps not a surprising origin story for Homer’s separation from his mother since the character has consistently stuck up for Grandpa over the years. However, the
Simpsons season 33 episode did also retcon some vital canon from the series while explaining how Homer and his mother ended up so distanced. Although Mona Simpson appeared on
The Simpsons numerous times before being killed off, the episode sees Homer and Grandpa claim that they have not seen her since Bart’s birth. It is an odd claim and one that flies in the face of numerous classic
Simpsons plots without adding much to the episode’s explanation of Homer’s abandonment by his mother.
Although hearing that Homer has not seen his mother in almost a decade is tragic, it is contradicted by the numerous
Simpsons episodes wherein she arrives in Springfield and interacts with the family. Like the death of
Maude Flanders, this Simpsons mistake seems unnecessary and serves mostly to complicate the show’s messy chronology, and was not necessary to make the story of Homer being left behind by his mother effective. The crux of
The Simpsons season 33 episode is explaining that, in the heel of the hunt, Homer chose to stick with Grandpa over Mona, a decision that is both true to his character and poignant as well.

2023.06.05 12:08 Loquor_de_Morte Don't even know why I'm still alive at this point.
Honestly, if there is someone to blame, that is me. I feel tired, so unbelievably tired that not even 16+ hours of sleep a day can fix it; I can barely function for the other 8 hours. I've progressively failed every university class I've had, not feeling any motivation from it, and it's only because I willingly leave and stop assisting. I've stopped caring, feeling so isolated and burnt. All my social interactions are alphanumeric characters on a screen that mean nothing anymore (though some were, admittedly, interesting).
When I was a kid, I wanted to have a nice life, the same old bullshit they delude you into wishing. A house of your own, a university degree, a stable job, a lasting and stable relationship, independence, health, mental health, all before you're 30... do you think I got that? I'm ever closer, ever creeping into the pit that is my inevitable death.
I'm so tired. It's always either me who fucks up, or whatever circumstances that lead me to fuck it up; I self-sabotage, I distrust people, I feel like a fucking joke, and no wonder I am one. My family wants me to continue studying because there's no money to find any other university, I can't afford to leave the country and go to another one ('cause obviously, money), and I can't get a job because I'm too hideously autistic to even function normally anymore. I mean, I can't think by myself anymore (though I can do stuff on my own), and feel everytime so insecure that I look for someone's opinion and green-light. I can feel my brain rotting. I can feel it mushy, defective, and malfunctioning.
I don't bring anything to the table but shame. Oh, I don't even know why my family keeps up with me. I've made them waste so much time and money on a useless sack of shit. Therapy worked for a second, but this lazzy ass never got any use out of it long-term. It seems that I already gave up a long time ago.
I'm too far gone to even try and fix this shitshow that is my life. 21 years and I'm already behind all my peers, in every single damned aspect. I'm behind in university education. I'm behind in friendships. I'm behind in romantic relationships. I'm behind in sexual relationship. I'm behind in jobs. I'm behind in independence. I'm behind in life experiences. I'm behind in everything.
Some say to me that it doesn't matter, but they don't understand the sheer fucking shame I feel from being so left behind. I'm a sack of walking shit, and nothing more. I know my place.
I've been constantly thinking it back and forth these past years, but I think that I took the last plunge, and though I'm not going to kill myself right now, I'll do it in new year's eve, 2026. I hope that, by then, I'll have the guts necessary to either rope myself, jump off a building or in front of a truck, or swallow and overdose myself on amitriptyline, given that I'm soooo awfully poor to even have the decency of dying a quick, least splashy death. I also have to look for a quiet, secluded place where I won't bother anyone.
Heh, universities don't care if you're dead or depressed and suicidal; they want competent, bright students.Companies and job-offering places don't care if you're dead or depressed and suicidal; they want competent, hard-working people.Girls and boys don't care if you're dead or depressed and suicidal; they have many options to choose from, and won't choose the bottom of the barrel.People and society don't care if you're dead or depressed and suicidal; they want members that contribue something.
For all intents and purposes, MY existence is useless, meaningless, unneeded, and even hated by everyone. Therapists and psychiatrists only do their job because you pay them to. Friends- can't say anything because I don't have, and they rather be happy than to deal with a shitty, suicidal nobody. And my family, I don't know how they can keep up those fake smiles when their contempt and disgust oozes so clearly.
I am alone. I've always been alone. I don't belong anywhere. I don't have a home, I don't have a family, I don't have friends, I don't have a girlfriend, I don't have a job, I don't have an education, I don't have independence and success. I AM MEANINGLESS. I AM NOBODY.
Heh, I doubt anyone will read this far, so may as well write it, right? Just a few days, just a few months, just a few years before I can finally say farewell to this world, to my shame, to my failures, to my problems, to my errors, to my inadequacies, to my stupidity, to my ugliness, to my autism, to my poverty, to my friendlessness life, to my loveless life, to my empty existence.
It hurts that I never amounted to anything other than being fertilizer for flies, worms, fungi and soil. I was born to die, with no in-betweens. I came out of my mother's womb, covered in blood, to die on the floor, cold and lifeless. That should've been my fate. Aborted, killed, murdered, crushed, shot, ran through, hanged, burnt, drown, sickened to death. Why live when I can die? God already turned his back on me, so whether I live or die, it makes no difference. Some of you have someone. I have no one. Alone I am, alone I shall die. At least I want to die by my own hand, that would be comforting, being myself the only one who has ever loved me that much to put me out of my misery.
I hate myself. I wish I was dead.

Check out the sidebar if you're interested in more information on plant hardiness zones, identifying problems, weed control, fertilizer, establishing grass, and organic methods. Also, you may contact your local Cooperative Extension Service for local info.
How to Get the Most out of Your Post: Include a photo of the problem. You can upload to imgur.com for free and it's easy to do. One photo should contain enough information for people to understand the immediate area around the problem (dense shade, extremely sloped, etc.). Other photos should include close-ups of the grass or weed in question: such as this, this, or this. The more photos or context to the situation will help us identify the problem and propose some solutions.
