2023.03.25 12:20 ___HeyGFY___ Long overdue update (not so great news)
I'm putting this here because some people may not have access to where I posted last night.
Some of you may know that my wife Kim has not been in good health for quite a while. I don't know that I've ever told anyone on here the full extent. So buckle up. This is going to be a long and bumpy ride.
She has been diagnosed with COPD, congestive heart failure, kidney disease, morbid obesity, diabetes, degenerative joint disease in her hips and knees, and neuropathy (nerve damage) in her feet and ankles. Two of the medications she takes for pain cause constipation. Not only that, but she has dealt with claustrophobia, anxiety and depression for years, and more recently agoraphobia.
Anytime some little sniffle entered the house, she would end up in the hospital with bronchitis and pneumonia. February 2020 was no different...until COVID. They discharged her earlier than they wanted to because they had four or five positive cases on the floor where she was and they didn't want to take the chance on someone like her catching it. At the time we thought it was a great idea, or at least the lesser of two evils.
But when someone with severe anxiety and depression gets word of a global medical pandemic, their mind starts working overtime. We were one of the households that started panic buying things like toilet paper and canned goods and cleaning supplies and hand sanitizer. We had to wipe everything down before it came into the house. We had to leave mail and packages outside for 24 hours before we brought it in.
And she never left our bedroom. She freaked out every time one of us left the house. We had to change clothes as soon as we came in and leave whatever we were wearing outside for 24 hours. And it's not like we have a little mudroom or anything like that. Front door, front room...side door, kitchen...back door, family room.
When you lay in bed for months and months on end, you lose function of your body. You lose strength. You lose the ability to do things most of us take for granted, such as get up and go to the bathroom. Eventually she developed something they call foot drop. Instead of your ankles forming a normal L shape, they look more like hockey sticks (or feet in high heels). And when you do get up and put weight on your heels, you fall backwards.
And that is exactly what happened to her couple months ago. If I hadn't been standing right behind her, trying desperately to hold her up, she would've smashed her back into the bed frame and done some serious damage to her already compromised body.
Kim has been in this hospital for seventy days. She's been in five different rooms on four separate floors, including a week in the intensive care unit. She has almost died three times, through no fault of the hospital. Once was due to her poor breathing and her highly diminished blood oxygen level. She was given three options: use a BiPAP machine, get a tracheostomy, or go to hospice.
I ended up bringing her BiPAP machine from home and she has used it maybe half the time. You can't put a full face mask on someone who suffers from claustrophobia. You also can't rely on a BiPAP machine to breathe for you. Then it becomes more like a ventilator and, since she has filled out "do not resuscitate" paperwork, a ventilator is out of the question.
She and I have talked on multiple occasions about what her future will be like. I have asked her point-blank a number of times whether or not she wants to live. Some days she said yes, some days she said no. I've always held out hope that there would be more "yes" days.
We had a family meeting today with the doctor, the physician assistant, the charge nurse, the case manager, and reps from physical therapy, occupational therapy, respiratory and cardiology. They explained her situation in great detail. They talked about why she has consistently been denied when it comes to rehabilitation centers. Some places don't accept my insurance, some places don't have bariatric beds available, and some places don't think she's made enough effort.
In the past seventy days, physical therapy has attempted to work with her eleven times. She has refused on six occasions. The first four times she excepted, it was simply a matter of sitting up on the edge of the bed. It was no effort to have her stand, because they were concerned that she would fall. But last Thursday, they lifted her up on what's called a Hoyer sling, sat her down in the chair, and helped her stand up twice. It was maybe a total of a minute, but it was more than she had done in 4 1/2 months.
We thought it was a turning point. We thought maybe she was actually going to do this. Then the next day she had another episode with her oxygen levels and apparently at that point decided that she was done.
So, after this meeting, after discussing the entire situation with me and with her daughters, my wife has decided on hospice care at home. It's definitely not what I wanted. But I told her that it was her decision and I would support her, no matter what.
She kept asking me what I want. I finally told her that I want her to be comfortable with whatever decision she makes. I can't and I won't make the decision for her. And I won't try to convince her to change her mind, no matter what I want.
She's 58. We've been together for almost 20 years and married for just over 6. She has three children, 40, 33, and 27. We have three grandchildren, 9, 4, and 2. But she's been suffering from physical and emotional pain for so long that none of that seems worth it to her. I can't say I understand. But it's her decision.
If you're still reading this, I'm grateful. There's a lot of pain and frustration in those words. I don't know if you believe in any sort of divine being or not. Personally, I no longer do...but that's a completely different post. And I would really appreciate any positive vibes, good juju, prayers, etc. that you can spare. I know that a dear friend of mine is struggling right now due to her father's health. And I know that people often say "I'll keep _____ in my thoughts and prayers." And right now, Kim and I could use all the help we can get.
Thank you JJ

Previous. Captain Vohr’Doe walked along the hall of the crew quarters, hoping that Kyle wasn’t in his ‘living’ room; there was something he'd had delivered to his equipment room that she
really wanted to see, but didn’t think it would be prudent to simply
ask to see it. As Captain, she had - of course - been given an inventory of the items he had delivered, and while a lot of it seemed to be a bit
much - like the meat smoking pit, along with the filters to keep his room safe - there was one thing that she couldn’t quite put in that same category, regardless of how much upkeep it would need.
She very well could have put in a call to security to find his location, but she knew he would be either in his ‘room’, or in his ‘equipment room’, and it was good to take a walk among your crew from time to time; let them know that you don’t think of yourself as
better than them. So it was that she greeted the members of her crew that she passed, taking the time to speak to them, and make sure they were doing well. And so it was that she finally made it to his room, and pushed the call button. After waiting a few moments, she pressed it again. Finally, she decided he wasn’t in his room, and turned to head towards the elevator to take her down. However, she had barely taken three steps when he turned the corner, prompting the slightest twinge of disappointment.
He was dressed in a black silk shirt, with a pair of pants that were made to have lots of room in the legs. The waist obviously fit him, and yet, the legs themselves seemed to be made for someone
much larger than himself, as his legs had plenty of space to move around inside the pants. They also had a peculiar color scheme, as the left half was all black, and the right half was a deep, vibrant red. There were pockets about halfway down the legs, with metal chains hanging on them. She could also see that he was barefoot, and while there was no rule saying he had to, she
was aware that his people usually wore shoes when out in public. But, he wasn’t hurting anyone - namely himself, in this instance - so she didn’t bother about it. He was also still wearing the sun-shades that he had on before, and she had to wonder as to
why seeing as she had read that Sol was just as bright on Earth as the lights on the ship. Perhaps the mahn’ewe operate under dimmer lighting? Two years would be time enough to shift someone’s vision.
He had in his left hand his tablet, his face pointed entirely at the screen, and in his right was a plastic container, that was square-shaped, with rounded corners, the base of which was the size of his whole palm, and which flared out about an inch along its length upwards. It was mostly full with what appeared to be tiny, tan-gray seeds, and even as she watched, Kyle lifted it to his mouth and simply stuck his tongue out, using his saliva to adhere the seeds to his tongue. He was just lowering his hand - having retracted his tseed-covered tongue back into his mouth - when he stopped, and she got the feeling that he’d finally looked up, and saw her; which was solidified when he said,
“Hey, Cap’n; fancy seeing
you down here.” She didn’t miss the note of trepidation in his voice.
“Well,” she began, “I actually came down to see you. Do you have a minute to talk?”
“Of course,” he replied, “Here, or…?”
She smiled, and said,
“Your room should do fine, unless you wish to go somewhere else?”
“Oh,” he replied, somewhat flustered, “No, my room’s fine; just a second…” and he made his way over to his door, opening it for her.
And upon the door opening, she was at first confused, as she was confronted by a wood-paneled wall about six feet from the door. Then she realized that these were the crates his things had been shipped in. He must have had more things in them than she’d originally thought, as he had yet to unpack it all even after three Standard days aboard this ship. However, when she stepped in, and walked around the corner around ten feet to her left, she saw an entirely different sight.
To her right was a 7’-tall entertainment center, about 5’-wide, and a monitor inside that took up the entire space from left to right, though it was only about 4’-tall. The top of the monitor was about level with the top of her chest, with a shelf above it that was filled with various personal effects. Most all of these were variations of a winged lizard that looked remarkably like the reptile aspects of the drahk’mihn, not least of all because they were all different colors.
There were what looked like egg-shaped geodes, the upper ‘faces’ missing about a quarter of the ‘shell’ the insides each dyed one of the six primary and secondary colors, with a miniature lizard curled protectively around its corresponding color. There was a timer-glass - the bottom bulb containing red sand - with the side ‘pillars’ that connected the ‘cage’ holding the glass center steady being one of these creatures on each side, mirrored by identical creatures on the ‘bottom’, relative to whichever was on the top at any given turning. There was a large figurine that was of a multi headed example of these creatures, one red body, with multiple other colored heads, one being red, but the others being blue, green, black, and white. Everywhere she looked, there were figurines, pictures, and posters - held to the wall with magnets, it looked like - all of them containing these creatures in some setting or another. Just as she was about to comment on them, a light turned on on a nearby table, and she looked in over to see a white orb made of plastic. In certain parts, there was obviously more plastic layered than in others, creating ‘shadows’ across its surface. As she studied it, the ‘shadows’ seemed to look almost like craters.
“Earth’s moon?” she asked, turning to look at Kyle, who - she just noticed - wasn’t looking at her. In fact, he seemed to
be looking for something. As she watched, he scanned his room, looking over every surface, and even under chairs, and in the space under his desk in the corner where his legs would go. He didn’t seem to notice she said anything, taking several seconds before he turned, looking at her with a slightly surprised look on his face, saying,
“Hmm?” distractedly, until his mind seemed to catch up to what she’d said, as he followed that up with, “
Oh, right; yeah, that’s Luna. It was only ‘illustrated’ to show the light side, so the other side isn’t ‘stenciled’ to show the cities on the dark side.”
“Oh,” she replied, “I didn’t realize that Earth’s moon was tidally locked... Well, I can certainly understand the sentiment: no matter how much I enjoy being out among the stars, surveying new plants, my home planet will always hold a special place in my heart.”
“Pur’Rosse?” he asked politely.
She gave a small laugh, and replied,
“No, I was born on one of our colony planets: Clash’Rept. It’s not very large, or particularly important, but it’s home… If I’m interrupting your search for something…?” she finished, gesturing for him to continue. She saw him go a little red, as he sheepishly chuckled, and it was at that moment that she noticed something else: while he was still wearing his glasses, the lenses were now completely clear, with no tint at all. It seemed that he noticed what she was looking at, as he went slightly cross-eyed, then gave another small laugh.
“Just a second.” he replied with a slight smile, as he finished giving his room a quick sweep, then entered his connected bathroom. After about a minute in there, he stepped out, took off the glasses, and set them down on his bedside table. “A week was more than enough time for the A.I. studying the things I sent back to be able to reverse-engineer their cloaking devices, and then upgrade it.
With that, comes the tech to detect them, if they happen to try sneaking up on me again.”
The fact that the mahn’ewe had access to invisibility technology wasn’t lost on her, however, she chose a more…
intelligent question to ask.
“And you expect them to come
here?” she asked with a slight smile.
He looked a bit ‘on-the-spot’, and gave a smile of his own.
“Well,” he replied, “Not exactly ‘
expect’, but let’s just say I’m
acutely aware of the possibility.”
She nodded, conceding the point, and decided that was a good enough explanation, so she changed the topic.
“And what are
these?” she asked with a slight smile, “They look vaguely familiar.”
Kyle smiled at this, and he replied in a genuinely happy tone,
“Dragons; they can be found in the mythos of just about
every human culture in history. They can range from benevolence, to malicious, and everything in between. They usually have control over some element, from fire, to ice, to lightning. Some legends have them controlling
every element, or just being all-powerful… Plus, they just
look cool.” he finished excitedly.
“Well,” she replied in a slightly amused voice, “I have to agree with you, there.” finishing with a light chuckle.
The conversation seemed to stall there, and Kyle was the one to broach the subject.
“So, you wanted to talk to me?” he inquired, with a note of trepidation creeping back into his voice.
“I did.” she replied, with a gentle firmness; she didn’t want him to feel more threatened than he already - obviously - was, “It’s come to my attention that you haven’t been interacting with the ship beyond your two rooms, and that you give the most minimalist of replies when addressed by your fellow crew members. And while there’s no
rule that you have to interact with the crew, I’ve been informed that you haven’t even been to the cafeteria to eat. Obviously, I have no problem with you having your own food and cookware,” here she gestured to the air filter hanging over a stovetop/oven in the corner, “But it’s starting to unnerve the crew a bit. You must understand how it looks to someone on the outside: all anyone is aware of is that you’re a Class 12 aggressor. No one knows
why you’re classified as such, and I
know you don’t want to tell the story to anyone else; hells, I doubt you would want
me telling the story on your behalf.
“So the only thing they have to judge you off of is the
official Federal rating on you, and your behavior you exhibit in front of them. Now, I’m not asking you to spend all of your free time fraternizing with everyone you see. However, if you could just start by going to eat with everyone else - perhaps go down to the gun range? - I’m sure that you can meet new people, who simply want to know you… I read your psych report: I know what you went through as a child. And while I can’t guarantee that
no one on this ship will bring back memories of the tormentors of your childhood, I
can guarantee that the majority will leave you pleasantly surprised,”
If what she’d learned from her interactions with the suun’mahs, and the kanfi’doe - not to mention Kah’Ri - was anything to judge by, then he was very clearly expressing guilt, with his head dropped, and him seeming to be unable to make eye contact. Finally he broke the silence, looking at her sheepishly, saying,
“How far d'you think I can push the ‘unpacking my massive amount of personal items’?” with a shy smile on his face.
That drew out a genuine laugh from her, and she smilingly replied with,
“I think you’ve pretty much used up that time. I’m sure we could pass it off as the
only reason you’ve been so reclusive, but it won’t work for very much longer.”
Kyle gave a resigned sigh, and in a matching voice said,
“
Alright, I’ll go out more besides, you’re right about the gun range: I’ve only ever shot any guns once, when a… an
acquaintance brought his pistol and rifle on a camping trip. I was invited to go to this National Park by some people at work, and I didn’t have a really good reason to refuse… Anyway, I really
do have a few more things to do in my equipment room, though; so, would tomorrow be okay?”
She smiled at this, and said,
“That would be acceptable, thank you.” she didn’t want to end on this note, however, so she cast her mind around for anything to talk about, and her mind latched onto something,
“What was that that you were eating when you were in the hallway?” she asked, gesturing to the plastic container he’d set down on his desk.
He smiled at this, and brightly replied,
“Oh, those’re sunflower seeds; well, sunflower
kernels seeing as they’ve already been shelled.” and here, he walked over to a cabinet that was used for storing utility items, which
did have a few cleaning supplies in the bottom, but the shelves were filled with snack foods. From one shelf at about his shoulder, he pulled an unopened, identical container, and tossed it to her. Having removed the plastic film around the edge of the lid, she opened it, and - mimicking Kyle - she stuck her tongue into the mass of kernels.
The kernels - themselves - had a light, almost bland taste to them, but in a good way. There was a definite
taste to them, and not so little that she actually
needed so many at a time, but also not so strong as to be overpowering. It was very much something that she could eat if she was feeling ill, and having trouble keeping down more rich flavored food. Plus, the salt was applied in such amount as to enhance the flavor, and not to overpower it. She couldn’t find anything wrong with it. However, one thing occurred to her, somewhat belatedly.
“Are you sure this is safe for me?” she asked with a small smile.
“Yeah,” he answered, smiling, “Kay’Eighty’s already gone through the medical records of the different species, at least, what’s available to the wider public. There’s not really much that we can eat that other species can’t, and there’s not really much that
you couldn’t eat, anyways.”
“Well,” she began with a slight laugh, “
That’s good to know… Speaking of Kay’Eighty, may I meet her?”
“Of course.” he replied, and reached into his pocket, pulling out a small blue box, that soon morphed into a foot-tall, human-shaped ‘robot’; though, ‘android’ would probably be a more fitting descriptor, at this point.
“Hello Captain Vohr’Doe,” she said, “It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Captain Vohr’Doe smiled down at the tiny person, and replied,
“And you, as well. How are you enjoying your stay here; is there anything I can do to make your time here more…” She wasn’t quite sure what she wanted to say here: ‘inclusive’? ‘Enjoyable’? Whatever she wanted to say, it seemed that Kay’Eighty understood, as she responded with a polite smile, and to say,
“Thank you, Captain, but I have everything I need, supplied to me by the humans. All I need - really - is material to feed my nano-forge in the off chance that I were to lose any bots, for whatever reason, and - again - I have more than enough in storage.”
Not wanting to overstay her welcome, she decided to leave them to whatever they needed to do. So with farewells all around, she took her leave, carrying the container of sunflower kernels that Kyle gave her.
================
Ah’Sheen hated being so small, at times. At only a foot tall - or
two feet long on all fours, and counting their tails - the miu’alfar were the smallest sapient species in the known galaxy. Though, it wasn’t the Federation - in and of itself - that made it a problem, as there were all sorts of workarounds that the Federation went out of its way to implement that were to the benefit of the smaller species. But in every civilization, there were always the extremists. People who thought themselves superior to others for whatever reason, and thought that gave them the right to bully others. And that led to ‘trickle-down’ bullying, which led to her current situation.
The three rahv’oyeck that had been harassing her had been content to hurl insults at her, mocking her for being so small, even though the rahv’oyeck didn’t grow taller than two feet, themselves. But when she’d turned the corner into the connecting path - on a street it would be referred to as an ‘alley’, and in this case, wasn’t covered by the security cameras - her vision went completely dark, as one - or all - of them manipulated the light from her eyes. Unfortunately for her, she had been close to the edge when this happened, and her momentum couldn’t be stopped so suddenly, as she’d sped up to try to get away from them. This led to her falling the ten feet to the floor below. Luckily, her people could
survive greater falls with minimal injury; it didn’t mean it didn’t hurt, though, as she rolled into a sitting position, a bit winded from the impact.
Of course, this led to a cacophony of laughter above her, which quickly came down to her level, accompanied by the flapping of their wings. She heard the female of the group talking, first.
“
Wow” she said in amused awe, “You made her eyes into
mirrors! How’d you do that?”
The one to her left - a male - replied in a smug voice,
“Yeah, my dad taught me about that: basically, you just have to reflect
all the light from a surface, and it makes a mirror; takes a lot of focus, though.”
“So,” said the one in front of her, a male, “Where were you heading,
rodent?”
“Please,” she replied, “Leave me alone; I won’t tell anyone, just let me go.”
“I don’t know,” the one who was apparently blocking her vision said with vindictive pleasure, “We were on our way to lunch, and I’m thinking you might just make a
tasty meal.”
There was laughter, then the female said,
“She may be small, but I don’t think you could finish her by yourself.”
“Oh, didn’t you know?” he asked, “Rodents have collapsible spines; I bet I could swallow her whol-
rgck!”
His voice cut off into a choking sound, as at the same time, her vision came back. The first thing she saw was the two rahv’oyeck who were directly in front of her, and to her right; both of whom were staring - with their beaks wide open - at something above them all, and to her left. Looking in that direction, she saw Kyle, and an instinct to run and hide flashed up inside of her at the sight of him.
The first thing she noticed was his face, which was twisted into a pained-looking rictus, a bastardization of the smile he gave to Kah’Ri at lunch the other day. Firstly, there were too many teeth visible; as well as his gums. And though she couldn’t see his eyes, she was instinctively sure that there was
zero amusement behind that ‘smile’. Backing this up was his right arm extended all the way out to his side, who’s hand was currently wrapped around the throat of the rahv’oyeck who had used his Gift on her. The fingers on the end of his wings were scrabbling at Kyle’s hand, trying to free himself, but Kyle’s fingers might as well have been made of steel, for all the good it was doing him; he finally settled on hanging on to Kyle’s hand to relieve the pressure on his throat, which Kyle didn’t seem to be squeezing enough to
entirely cut off his air, though his hand was visibly shaking from the obvious restraint. His voice reflected that almost-painful restraint of rage as he - in the icy voice of a psychotic murderer trying to sound innocent - said,
“You know, I thought I heard the squawking of a bunch of seagulls, but turns out it was actually
laughter. And so I thought to myself, ‘Hey,
I like to laugh; maybe these seagulls’ve got some jokes.' So I decided to come and find out:
What’s so funny?”
The other two just stood there, beaks still open, and a tremble now running through their bodies as they stared on in obvious terror; here was the Class 12 ‘beast’ Kor’Rah was referencing the other day. After a few seconds of silence, Kyle gave a casual flick of his wrist, sending the bird in his hand fluttering behind him, and showing a supreme lack of concern for the life he was literally holding in his hand just moments before. At the same time, he bent forward, reaching out towards them. The other two obviously - along with her, she had to admit - thought that he was reaching for one of them, as they both fell over themselves trying to scramble away from his outstretched hand. However, he surprised them all by grabbing Ah’Sheen around her waist in an unexpectedly gentle - while expectedly firm - grip, and lifting her up, placing her on his left shoulder as he straightened up. Looking down at the two in front of them, he said in soft growl,
“You know, humans have two rules -” here, he looked to the side, and his voice momentarily took on a bit of a distracted tone, “Actually, humans have a
lot of rules - but two main ones that you’re dangerously close to breaking unforgivably. First and foremost being:
don’t mess with my friends.” and here, he walked past them, leaving them staring up at him. She didn’t want to seem like she was making fun of him, but she felt he was leaving himself open to it from the other three there, so she sent a tendril of thought to his mind, which he accepted, and through it she said,
‘You said there were two, but you only told them one.’
She felt the smirk he was suppressing, and he said back,
‘I know, but there’s always one who has to be Billy Badass.’
Almost as if on cue, they heard a rather hoarse voice behind them say,
“Yeah, and what’s number
two?”
Kyle stopped dead, and slowly turned, as she felt him let the rage bubble back up to the surface. She felt vindictive smile crack his face, and he practically growled through clenched teeth,
“
Fuck around, and find out.” and with that, he took a quick,
hard step forward, causing all three of them to scramble around, and take to the air, flying in the complete opposite direction. Kyle gave a snort of laughter, and continued on the way he was going, which turned out to be to the elevator. He was about to push one of the buttons, when he froze, seeming to think of something.
“Um,” he began, “Where were you going, by the way?”
She gave a slight laugh, and said,
“Well, I
was going to lunch; why, where are
you going.”
“Oh,” he replied, “I was heading to my equipment room, but I can drop you off on my way.”
“Oh,” she said, “Well, if you’re not going, then I can wait for a while: they mentioned that they were heading to lunch, as well, and I don’t want to deal with that. You can set me down here: I’m sure they won’t try anything, again.”
But Kyle was still for a few seconds, before he pushed the button to take them to the equipment rooms.
“I got something that can hold you over till dinner.” he said as the doors began to close.
She wanted to decline - not because she was afraid of him, but because she didn’t want him to go through any undue effort on her part - but she thought better of it; if for no other reason, than to ‘force’ him to put her down would be to take another fall similar to the one she just took earlier, and she didn’t want to go through that again. Soon enough, they were in front of his equipment room, and he motioned for it to open, and she was confronted with a wall of wooden crates. Kyle didn’t seem to be bothered by it, as he turned to his left, and walked around the corner, revealing a mostly clear room. He had obviously put his stuff away, seeing as the room was mostly clear, with the only thing out of the ordinary was a big rectangular metal box in the far corner, and a bunch of large canvases on the walls. The canvases were all of various things, from a dark forest, to nebulae, to a ‘cartoon’ tree, with a large gray trunk, and purple leaves, with golden light shining through the cracks.
Kyle walked over to the box, setting her - along with his sunglasses - down on the desk that came with the room beside the box, he opened said box, pulling out two cylindrical plants with long, green leaves. Each was individually wrapped in plastic, and were quite obviously frozen. As he walked over to one of the closets that lined the walls, he opened it to reveal a large cooking pit. He walked a bit further in, and picked up a smaller pit, one that was just barely taller than herself. He set this one beside the larger one, filled it with lumps of what appeared to be coal, and set it alight. He reached up, and turned on what she took to be an air filter, judging by the sound of an air-intake. As he stepped back, her eyes moved past him, to the spot that was hidden from her view before, as this was on the other side of the box ‘wall’ he seemed to have purposely constructed, and she couldn’t help but gasp when she saw it.
There, to the right of his door - though you wouldn’t know that walking in, obviously - was a 10’-tall tree, and as unexpected as a tree on a ship would be, it was what the tree bore that was the real shocker. For all over it, from the highest branches, growing from vines that wrapped their ways around the trunk, to other, thicker vines that grew around the base, sprouting large green fruits, some of them even bigger than she was, as well as a yellow-tan plant that had almost sharp-looking leaves sprouting out of the top. Kyle followed her gaze, and in a smiling voice, said,
“Oh, yeah; that’s my fruit tree.” he said, as he walked over and picked her up, taking her over to the tree, “Those are apples: ‘red crisp’, there, and those are called ‘granny smith’. The red ones are sweeter, while the green ones have a more tangy bite to ‘em. Those’re ‘oranges’, and the larger ones are called ‘grapefruits’; ‘mangoes’, ‘pomegranates’, ‘peaches’, and ‘bananas’. On the trunk are red and green ‘grapes’, ‘strawberries’, ‘blackberries’, ‘raspberries’, ‘blueberries’, ‘passionfruit’, and ‘dragonfruit’. Down there are ‘watermelons’, and ‘pineapples’. Just a small sample of the fruits from Earth, but the ones I’m most familiar with.”
She was stuck staring in awe, and finally found her voice enough to ask,
“How are there so many different fruits on one tree?”
“Well, before the scientists moved on to manipulating the
human genome, they started with plants. Besides making actual
hybrids - like,
mixing the qualities of multiple fruits together - they made hybrid
plants wherein they grow multiple different
instances of fruits, or vegetables, like this one.” and with this, he reached out, and pulled a large bunch of the ‘strawberries’ from the vines, using his shirt as a makeshift ‘basket’.
He then took her back to the desk, and set her down, then returned to the opened closet and retrieved a machine that looked like some kind of food processor: it was a large pitcher that sat in a smaller machine-base, with four small blades at the bottom of the pitcher. After he set that down on the desk, and plugged it in, he took the remaining leaves off of the strawberries, and dumped them - one by one as he finished with them - into the processor. Reopening the freezer, he scooped out some ice with a metal scoop, and filled the pitcher almost to the top. He then went over to another closet, and this one was more shallow - mostly a closet to hold coats - that had been converted into a liquor cabinet, stocked floor to ceiling with many different spirits of many different colors. He selected a clear bottle, and closed the closet, returning to the desk.
After he poured a measured amount into the pitcher, he put the lid on the top and - while holding it down, one finger hovering over one of the buttons, he looked over at her and said,
“This’s gonna be kinda loud.”
She covered her ears, and he pushed the button, activating the blades to begin pulverizing the contents of the pitcher. After almost a minute, the harsh crushing, grinding sound fell away, replaced by the loud wiring of mechanical parts. Kyle shut the machine off, and reached into a cabinet over the desk, pulling out two glasses, one several inches taller than the other. After he poured the
delicious-smelling drink into the glasses, he handed her the smaller one, and she took an experimental sip: it
was delicious., and she told him so.
After he had taken his own drink of the mix - and nodded his thanks to her - he reopened the box, this time reaching into the furthest-most left side, on the other side of the partition, where items that needed to be kept cold - but obviously not
frozen - were kept, and pulled out a bowl with a lid on it. Looking over at her, he asked,
“How are you with… ‘jhode’yuus’, the drahk’mihn would call it; we call it ‘butter’ - at least, in English, we do.”
“That’s not a problem,” she replied, “Being a mammal, milk - and milk by-products - are easily digestible by herbivores; it’s the actual
meat that we can’t process.”
“Cool.” was all he said, and proceeded to open the bowl, taking a plastic seal off the top. Out of the cabinet to the right of the one containing his glasses, he pulled a small rectangular box, from which he extracted two long sheets of some thin metallic material. He folded them in half long-ways, and cinched the ends together, the metal being extremely pliable. Taking a spoon out of one of the desk drawers, he then scooped a large dollop of the ‘butter’ into each ‘trough’ that he’d made, and opened the two containers, pulling out the vegetables inside, stripping the outer leaves from the seemingly now-thawed vegetables, revealing the yellow-white kernels that were hidden beneath.
“This’s called ‘corn’,” he stated, “More specifically, ‘
corn-on-the-cob’. There are several ways to prepare corn, but by
far the best way to do it is like this. You can boil it in a pot - sure - but I prefer to boil it in butter, on the grill.” and with that, he set each ‘cob’ of ‘corn’ on the bed of butter, closing the metal over the tops of each. He then took the metal-wrapped vegetables over to the pit, and set them on it, placing the lid back on the pit.
He came back, and sat down at the desk, taking a large - for
her, anyway - drink from his glass, and she was suddenly struck by the silence. It occurred to her that asking ‘how have you been’ would be both hollow, and a bit invasive, seeing as they’d only met once. She looked up at him, wanting to say
something, but still not knowing what to say, her mouth left slightly open. However, when she looked at him, she saw a strange smirk on his face, and before she could think of anything to say, he took the initiative, answering as if she’d asked a question.
“I’ve been good - well,” he said in a slightly distracted voice, “As good as can be expected, anyways. I’ve been mostly just unpacking; been doing that for the past three days.
I haven’t encountered anyone tryin’ to mess with me, but I’m guessing that’s ‘cause they don’t wanna be killed - or eaten - by the ‘
Class 12 monster’.” he finished with a smirk.
“Well,” she began in an almost flustered voice, “I’m sure that’s not…” she then thought better of her response, “Yeah, that’s probably it. There’s never been a Class 12 sapient species make it very long before driving themselves to extinction. People fear what they don’t know.”
“Yeah,” he replied easily, “I’m used to that. But we’re not
really a ‘Class 12’ under most circumstances. I mean I’m sure you - as an expeditionist - know that a species isn’t rated on their everyday behavior, so much as their most extremes. And actually - for the
most part - you’ll have to worry about humans trying to pet the various sapient races, as they’ll see them as just ‘too cute’.” he finished in an amused voice.
She hesitated for a moment, and found the courage to ask - albeit, in a timid voice -
“What… What made them classify you as a ‘12’, then?”
The look he gave her, it wasn’t anger; actually, it wasn’t
anything. If she had to name the expression on his face, it would be ‘neutral’. However, there was a deepness to his eyes when he looked into hers, a dark pit of emotions that she felt could swallow her whole if she gazed too long into the abyss of his pupils. Then he blinked slowly, and that was replaced by a gentle sadness as he replied,
“Trust me, you
don’t wanna know.” and though his voice had a note of that gentle sadness his eyes held, there was no anger, or offense; something happened on that ship that he knew would damage her. A notion crossed her mind then, of a temporarily insane example of the creature who wanted so badly to crush the life from the rahv’oyeck he held in his hand, with no filter, no control. A slight shiver went down her spine, and she gave a small nod of agreement. He gave her a gentle smile, and changed the subject.
For the next six Standard minutes, or so, they talked about their homes. He had given her his native language, stating it would be easier for them to speak in their own languages; he already had
her’s, of course.
He told her about going camping back on Earth, the animals he saw, the wild apple tree he found, and even showed her photos on his personal communication device from Earth. And she was in awe at the beautiful landscapes he showed her, from green clearings in the middle of a vibrant forest, to a lake with a horizon of hills behind it, and even some animals, a lot of which looked unfamiliar, though she
did see a black animal version of a galan’zhee. It was about as tall as the grass around it, and she was amazed when he told her that the grass was level with his own head. She wondered how he could take that picture with such a large apex predator looking at him - as it was in the picture - and she was shocked when he told her that all you have to do with 'black bears' is to make a lot of noise, and make yourself look big; that for all the damage they could do, they’re really just big balls of fear.
From there, he inquired about
her home life, and so she told him about the colony planet she was born on. It was not really much different than the pictures on his device, with the notable exception that there were
no predators larger than an adolescent miu’alfar, and those are very skittish as it is, avoiding any life forms bigger than themselves. There was also the notable difference - from Moor’Ess - of there being a definite day/night cycle, and how they didn’t need sunglasses to operate in brighter lights. He informed her that he wore them to protect his eyes, and that at home, he would block all windows from allowing natural light in.
It was during this that something from before occurred to her.
“Say, Kyle: did you really mean what you said to them, back there?” she asked a bit timidly.
Kyle scowled at the walled-off door, as if they were waiting outside.
“
Damn straight.” he practically growled, then his expression cleared into one of slight confusion, and he looked over at her, saying, “Wh- um… Just so we’re like, on the same page here: what-uhh, what part did you mean?”
She laughed a little at this, and with a bit more confidence said,
“The part where you called me your friend.”
Kyle’s eyes opened a bit wider at that, and she got the distinct impression that he’d been caught off guard with that, but instead of trying to backtrack on it, he simply asked,
“Well,
shouldn’t I?” with a funny little smile on his face.
“Well, no-” she replied, slightly flustered, “I mean,
yes, I just… I mean, we just met; I didn’t want to assume… I mean…” she trailed off, not really knowing what to say. But to her relief, Kyle’s laugh that followed was one of polite amusement.
“It’s okay, I understand… Nah, humans are a social species, even introverts like myself. If there’s no reason *not* to be friends with someone, we can usually ‘buddy up’ fairly quickly. Add in the fact that we’ve been dreaming of ‘aliens’ since before we had radio waves, and most people out here’ll be hard pressed to find an enemy in humans. Not to mention that you all look like
some kind of animal from back home, and yall’ll be havin’ to beat humans off with a stick; metaphorically speaking, of course….
Mostly, anyways…” to which they both had a good laugh.
Finally - though she barely noticed the time go by - he went to the pit and took the corn from the heat, and put the lid back on, closing the door behind him.
“I’ll deal with it all later,” he said with a small laugh, the metal-wrapped corn being held in his shirt, like the strawberries had been.
She chuckled, herself, as he pulled plates from one of the cabinets over the desk. After setting each ‘cob’ of corn down, he took the handle of the spoon, and used it to tear open the metal wrapping, spilling out the corn ,as well as the ‘butter’ it was cooked in; and the smell was absolutely divine. After he had poured out the contents of each wrap, and they had allowed it a couple minutes to cool, they dug in, with Kyle providing another large dollop of butter on each plate, instructing her that the best way to eat it is to slather it with butter, which was easiest done by simple rolling the corn in the butter.
It was delicious; better than the smell, even. For several minutes, they were both silent, each enjoying the crisp, rich taste of the Earth food. Finally, they had cleared the cobs of all the edible kernels, and had also each taken a bit of time to gnaw on the film that surrounded said kernels, that had stayed stuck to the cob. Kyle then went over to the tree and collected a large bunch of fruit, consisting of a couple peaches, a bunch of red grapes, a bunch of blackberries, and a few strawberries. He took them over to the desk, collected a bowl from another cabinet, and after retrieving a knife from the desk, began cutting up the bigger fruits into smaller pieces, depositing them in the bowl. After he was done, he shook the bowl around, effectively stirring the fruit without any utensils. He then set the bowl down, and retrieved two forks from the desk. He set one down in front of her and - with a slight smile -asked,
“You okay with sharin’ a bowl with me, or would you prefer your own?”
She picked up the fork and - without a word - began spearing pieces of fruit. He gave a small smile at that, and she could have sworn she saw a bit of relief in that smile, but she was focused on eating her dessert. And it was delicious, as well.
Not that any of the fruit she was eating was necessarily
better than any she’d eaten before, but it was all entirely
new, and all delicious. She particularly liked the peaches, though calling them the ‘best’ was only possible by a small margin.
They wound up spending all day in his room, talking about their lives back home, their likes and dislikes, and generally just becoming friends. She was a bit surprised at how easy it was to talk to him, and the more she got to know him, the more she believed that she didn’t want to know why his race was a Class 12.
She also met the A.I. that had volunteered to work with him - she was
not assigned to him, as the humans accepted their A.I. as equals, and didn’t treat them as simple computer programs. And she had to admit, Kay’Eighty was a very personable being, being just as emotive as any biological person she’d ever met.
They had a nice dinner in his equipment room, him grilling a steak on the smaller pit in his closet, along with some of the salad he’d made for her, consisting of what he called ‘lettuce’, ‘tomatoes’, ‘cucumbers’, slivers of ‘carrots’, and ‘croutons’, which were little squares of re-baked bread, which left them more crunchy than if it had simply been toasted. Once again, everything was delicious.
Finally, she began to feel the effects of having been drinking and talking all day, and began to feel drowsy. Upon noticing this, Kyle began cleaning up, then - more gently than before - lifted her to his shoulder, again, and as such, they left his equipment room. From there, he escorted her directly to her ‘living’ room, where he bid her goodnight, waiting to leave until the door closed behind her.

2023.03.25 11:56 FelicitySmoak_ On This Day In Michael Jackson HIStory - March 25th
1981- March 25 : Motown releases the album & the single “One Day In Your Life”. It consists of both solo and Jackson 5 tracks recorded with Motown. It was the first Jackson album released in the 1980s. Most of the tracks are from Jackson's fourth studio album,
Forever, Michael (1975). The other songs were taken from Jackson 5 releases to pad the album's running time. Motown later admitted that the album was just a quick cash grab generated from the success of Jackson's
Off the Wall. (1979). Michael does not promote the album in any way
https://imgur.com/a/R7KFIz6 1983- Michael debuted the Moonwalk at the recording of
Motown 25:Yesterday,Today, Forever at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium. This night also, symbolically, the night he finally and definitively separated himself from the Jackson 5.
The brothers reunited for the Motown 25 event on this day in 1983 to perform together, as Jermaine had left the group and Michael was already the biggest pop star in the world. Despite his meteoric rise, however, Michael still had one foot back in the Jackson 5
When you watch the performance of the Jackson 5 at the event, you can see Michael having to hold himself back as to only overshadow his brothers by about 10,000% and not 100,000%. He handles pretty much all of the singing and the camera almost never leaves him.
And then, after the Jackson 5 performance is done and Michael gets the solo spotlight to perform Billie Jean, he moonwalks for the first time.
The crowd erupts. The symbolism of him gliding away backwards . . . across the stage and, really, away from his original family band . . . was unmistakable.
This wasn’t the last time the Jackson 5 would ever perform together, but it was clear they were done. They’d have one more album and tour together, mixing their songs and Michael’s solo stuff . . . really, it was a Michael Jackson tour with the Jackson 5 along for the ride.
After that, Michael left the group for good. The show aired two months later on May 16th

Afterwards, they attend the after party at Spago
Speaking about the date later on, Madonna explained how it all came about.
“Michael was like, ‘Well who are you gonna go with?’ I looked at him and said, ‘I don’t know. You wanna go?’ And he said, ‘Yeah, that’d be great.’”
She added: “And then, yes, he took me home. You wanna know what happened after that? I’m not gonna tell you.”
"I mean, baby, I’ve been around,” she joked, saying that a glass of chardonnay helped the King of Pop to “loosen up,” transforming him into a “willing accomplice” and leading to “tongue and mouth kissing.”
Writing on Instagram, Madonna also looked back on the night, describing it as the “Best Date Ever

2005 - Trial day 20
Michael goes to court with Katherine & Joe. Friday proved to be a difficult day for jurors in the Michael Jackson trial as prosecutors pored over relatively uninteresting fingerprint evidence.
A central part of the prosecution's case hinges on the singer allegedly showing his accuser adult material while at Neverland. Jurors appeared bored through most of the day as they listened to often specialist and seemingly irrelevant material. One alternate juror even fell asleep.
This has been a difficult point for prosecutors to prove, as only one magazine actually contained prints from both Michael and his accuser - and those prints were not even on the same page. An October 2000 edition of Hustler Barely Legal Hardcore was found to contain only Michael's left thumb print on page 54, while three fingerprints from the accuser were found on page 92.
Other fingerprints from the boy were found in one other magazine and also in a calendar, while his younger brother's prints were also found in one magazine. All the boys' fingerprints were found on magazines contained in a briefcase found in a bathroom adjoining Michael's bedroom. Twelve fingerprints belonging to the pop superstar were found on various other magazines.
Lawyers for the singer attacked the evidence, pointing out that the fingerprint analysis was only done months, and even up to a year, after the items had been found. The defense claims that fingerprints from the boy were placed on the magazine when he was asked to identify it during a grand jury hearing
Alicia Romero, who supervises court exhibits, testified that she and a colleague had handled the items without wearing gloves. She said she was only told to use gloves later on but added that everyone else who viewed the evidence had worn gloves.
The defense added further doubt to the evidence when Timothy Sutcliffe, a sheriff's forensics expert, conceded that labels on two fingerprints had been switched. Fingerprint technician Nancy Torres also testified that she was in training when she analyzed the prints. She said that had been the first time she had ever used a special device to process the fingerprints.
Speaking to reporters after the proceedings, Michael appeared to be in good spirits. "I'd like to say hello to the people of Santa Maria, my friends and neighbors," he said. When asked how he felt having many of his family attending the trial, the singer replied, "It's great love, great bonding"
https://imgur.com/a/fMFOCWT 2009 - Concert Promoter Leonard Rowe says that Michael had him prepare a letter (dated March 25, 2009) addressed to Randy Phillips, in which Michael advised that effective this day, "Leonard Rowe is my authorized representative" and Rowe also says that MJ wrote on the letter that he wanted Rowe to oversee all his finances. Rowe concludes that Phillips resented that he couldn't control Rowe, so Phillips brought back DiLeo and forces him on MJ--and that if MJ didn't accept it, that he would pull the plug on everything.
Three months to the day before Michael Jackson died - Randy Phillips, CEO of AEG Live, wrote an email to another company executive, Paul Gongaware, saying, "We need to pull the plug now. I will explain."
Gongaware denied that the email was a reference to calling off Jackson's "This Is It" concerts in London but instead was pointed at "pulling the plug on Karen Faye," the singer's hairstylist, makeup artist and longtime friend who had expressed fears about Jackson's poor health.
The email raises questions about how early people began sending out warnings about Jackson's health.
2010 - A lawyer for Michael's father, Joe, said that he intends to file a wrongful death lawsuit against the late singer's doctor within 90 days, claiming that the physician’s actions amounted to murder.
Brian Oxman, who represents Joe Jackson, said the amount of the powerful anesthetic propofol given Jackson by Dr. Conrad Murray before his death “was reckless, and it amounts to second-degree murder.”

2023.03.25 11:48 wenti200 lday death
I woke up with a loud gasp as I heard loud booming noise coming from outside, deciding it was thunder I turned around to see a dark silhouette of a man standing outside of my door. I quickly covered myself with the blanket accepting the childhood belief if the monster can't see you, you're safe. I heard clicking noises as the silhouette moved from one end of my bedroom to the other. The loud clicking it made as one of its hands reached over to me but stopped halfway. Time stood still as my heart was thumping in my chest threatening to explode at any moment. That's when I heard in a deep and grave tone. 'It is not your time young one.''
I sighed in relief as it hasn't had chosen to come for me. A deep chill ran down the back of my spine I had a sudden realization if the creature is not coming for me then it must be coming for my sick and dying mother. happen I want her to live. Another bolt of lightning flashed and followed by a loud clap a few seconds later the figure was gone from my room. The thunder clapped from the darkness and through the lightning strike I saw a retched figure with fingers of decade flesh and bugs crawling in between the joints of the creature's standing over my mother. I gasped at the vile creature looming over my mother's poor defenseless body. Covering my mouth, I didn't want to grab the attention of the horrifying beast, but I couldn't let it feast upon my mother's frail and youthful body I screamed for it to get away from her, but the figure just continued its feast on her. I looked around the room and saw a small book perched on the table stand next to me. This should grab its attention I thought to myself. I threw the book with great force at the lumbering creature to grab its attention. It worked I got its attention as it swayed and staggered from the impact of the small book as it hits it squared in the face. Now realizing I got its attention with fury blazed from its shrieks, with no plan on what to do I thought of the thing that came into my mind and ran straight out of the room. Without looking back, I glanced in the corner of my eyes seeing a toothy and strained smile coming from the creature smiled at me and bent unnaturally on all fours arching its stomach toward the air. In one massive leap like a goat towards the ceiling sticking its claws in causing holes to form as it moved its head in a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn, with its black and voidless eyes moving towards me with frightening speed. I ran out of the room with the entity close behind me, panicking I ran straight towards my living room hopefully to lose it, and backtrack towards my mother's room. I dodged one of its strikes narrowly missing my legs. The creature skidded towards the table crashing and knocking itself out giving me the chance to run and lock myself in my mother's room. Out of breath and wheezing as tho, I just ran a marathon is slammed the door shut. Hearing a screech that sounded like the cries of an animal that was in pain I looked down to see that I caught the creature's hand in the door and was violently wailing its hand around the hand caught my face leaving a massive gash across my uppermost right eye down towards my lower lips. I stumbled back and hollered in pain as I felt warm blood trickling down my face and the taste of iron penetrating my split lips and seeping down my mouth. Running towards my mother and stood by her side as I heard the door come crashing down and splinters of wood flying into my legs. winching at the pain I stood my ground with an iron glare I stared at the creature, not wanting it to take my mother. it stopped and stood up like a normal human would do with all its joints cracking and popping. It lifted one of its arms and brought it back towards its back in an impossible manner that would surely break a normal human's arms, it brought out a long, massive scythe that glistened in the moonlight reflecting my bloody face in it. At that moment I knew that I was facing the embodiment of alt that ends, the reaper of souls, the grim reaper. The grim reaper raised its boney arms along with the massive scythe I barely had enough time to doge as the massive scythe scrapped across my back leaving a nasty scar. I landed on my back on the dresser whining in pain as the nerves on my body were shot like I just walked through fire butt naked. I looked up toward the creature and closed my eyes when a bright light surrounded us and I heard a giggle and then blackness.
It felt like I was falling into the inky darkness for eons nothing to see in either direction. Just me alone for all eternity to reflect on my past. I smiled at the thought of my past. Never really did anything to carter any attention to myself except that I was born into a rich family on a very big farm. We inherited it when my father died protection my mother from the local rival gangs when they caught a whiff that the drug lord is having a child. They planned their attack three days after I was born. My mother told me that the night they broke was a wet and muddy night with low visibility the guards never knew what was coming until it was too late, they were shot dead without hearing or seeing them. They broke down the front gate by ramming their cars into it. Once they broke through my mother and father woke up and ran towards the window.
My father yelled towards my mother to run and hide she did as she was told. There were gunshots as my father fought valiantly as the rivals kept pouring in like vultures on a dead body. They slaughtered my father and began ransacking the house looking for me and my mother they eventually found us hiding in the bathroom, my mother trying to silence a crying me as the intruders pointed our guns towards us. As if the gods were looking down on my mother that day the men in the bathroom were shot dead blood dripping from the bullet wounds from the head. As they collapsed down onto the floor my mother saw one of the guards limping towards her. He let out one of his injured hands towards mother and she took it with much hesitation.' What's your name?
The guard looked at her and gave a small smirk. 'Madam Avila if we survived this, I'll tell you' 'As they ran down the hallways past piles of rival gang members. one of them grabbed mothers' foot and tripped her knocking over an oil lamp that caught fire on the curtains. She screamed and kicked him as hard as she can cracking his neck and killing him. The guard looked shocked but didn't say anything. As they were about to exit from the burning building towards the back gates shouting can be heard and five men converged on mother and her protector all drawing their guns toward the last two. weapons were drawn the guard managed to shoot down four of the attacking before being fatally wounded. Seeing the surviving guard fall to the ground something snapped within mother that day. Was it the loss of her husband the guard or the loss of the hacienda maybe a combination? whatever caused mother to pick up his gun and shot the last man in the head. A faint gasp can be heard coming from the guard she knelt beside him. He smiled.
'Looks like you're going to make it miss Avila''.
Through weeping tears mother could only sniffle ''please don't die on me''.
''Miss it's all right I did my job your safe''.
she burst out in tears as he said those words. He leaned toward mother and whispered something into mother's ears before taking his final breath and collapsing to the ground. Mother let out a scream of agony and sadness for the loss of everything. And vowed revenge on those who had wronged her. As she was walking away, she looked back at the guard. Whispering that he will be remembered, and his name will live on in her son.
Nineteen years later I learned that mother went on a rampage killing all the rival gangs and their leaders in brutal and quick ways that not even the gods could stomach. Throughout town, she became known as lady death the scourge of the desert plains. The vengeful ghost of the night. After losing everything that night she built back up her empire and slaughtered any rival gang that dares to oppose her or gives a hint of betrayal. She became so feared in my town that everyone knew to never cross her and tend to stay well clear of me whenever I went to the markets, but she was well respected as she was also known as the protector.

2023.03.25 11:24 love_me_some_cats Weirdly twanging achilles - what to do?
For context, I am 40F amateur dancer. I've danced ballet on and off all my life, not been en pointe since mid 20s, and currently attend 1 weekly class.
I have this weird thing going on with my right ankle. Occasionally when I rise on just that foot, or step only it in demi point, I get this weird twanging sensation in my achillies. Like an elastic band twanging.
It doesn't hurt, I'm not sure if my ankle loses strength as honestly the feeling grosses me out so much my instinct is to immediately massage my heel and then avoid rising on that foot for the rest of the class.
This sometimes happens at home too when I'm on tiptoe trying to reach a certain kitchen cupboard!
Do we think this is weakness in my right ankle that I can work on with exercises? Or do I just have a gammy achillies? I keep meaning to give that KT tape a try, to give it some support but keep forgetting before class.
Thanks in advance!

2023.03.25 11:19 Verrgasm Desperation
My foot pushed down harder on the accelerator as my stomach cramped up again in a painful spasm. I was speeding through a schoolzone, and as a sign popped up on the side of the road clearly stating '20' I snapped out of my desperate panic and reluctantly dropped from '40' down to '25'. Turning a corner I realized to my horror that it was three o'clock, and the street was mobbed with parents buzzing in and out of the building to collect their children.
I turned to look behind me and I nearly lost it, my asshole puckering as I sucked the poison back inside. I was completely boxed in. Another four cars had already trapped me inside. I smashed the horn, pleading with the traffic on either side to budge. They didn't.
After a gruelling seven and a half agonising minutes and a half hearted search for some sort of viable receptacle and something other than socks to wipe with, the blockage finally gave way. The cars slowly began to move forward. Eagerly creeping behind, I saw the problem. Somebody had broken down right there by the school gates, having finally been repaired and sent along. A wave of relief washed over me as I considered the short journey ahead. The Porsche dealership was a little over a mile away. A dealership which had a bathroom, one I'd used before. Afterall, that's where I'd bought my car. They knew me, and I knew I'd be able to breeze on in, no questions asked. A deep growling rumbled out over the radio and I put my foot down again as soon as I broke through onto the main road. Just a straight shot, and it would all be over.
Not a minute passed until I was once again utterly dismayed, near losing all hope; ready to just give up right there and then and ruin a perfectly decent pair of black suit pants and the interior of my beautiful brand new Porsche's two-colour interior, characterized by a perfectly coordinated interplay of colours, materials and individual finishes suited just for me. A red light shone in the distance, and in its wake sat a long line of idling cars. Lesser cars, all in my way. My gut quaked violently and sharp pains erupted all through my midsection, sweat pouring down my back and growing sticky in the afternoon heat. I peeled myself from the smooth-finish leather, craning my head out the open window just enough to get a good shout across and I screamed as loudly as the rapidly building pressure would allow, but once again my efforts were futile.
Another minute, now five since I first stared down the crimson cyclops - FIVE minutes at a red light - before at last I was granted passage as everyone finally moved along. Taking their sweet time, of course. I took the left, screeching into the Porsche customer parking lot. The engine stayed on and the keys stayed in, I didn't even close the door behind me. There was no time. The car was the least of my concerns at that point, there was only one thing on my mind.
Shoulder-barging through the glass doors, it's as if my vision became tunneled as I focused in on that bright shining door located at the far wall emblazoned with the sign identifying it as a toilet. And only a little bit past two rows of Porsche's that were only slightly better than mine, I was so close. An audible grunt escaped my pursed lips. As I rushed past the reception desk, something grabbed me. It was Gina. Fucking Gina.
"Mr Kleinfeld? Hi! Lovely to see you again! There aren't any problems with the car, are there?" She looked concerned on the surface but only about as far as it might affect her status as the dealership's top salesperson that month.
"What?!" I caught myself before I let slip just how much pain I was in, confused as to why I wasn't just making a break for it. "Oh? No it's… it's amazing. Fantastic, even. It's just… the thing is…"
Gina raised an eyebrow behind her thick hipster glasses. Functional, yet chic. Now appearing sincerely concerned.
"CAN I USE YOUR BATHROOM!?" The words piled out fast and hard in more of a shriek than a polite request. Gina took a small surprised step back before replying apologetically,
"I'm so sorry, but it'll be closed until at least Five. We've had a plumbing issue this morning a-"
My bodily functions erupted loudly against my will, interrupting the dealership's most enterprising saleswoman midsentence as a fetid smell akin to what I imagine a genocide reeks like filled the spacious area, floor to ceiling, within seconds. I stood there in shock, as did Gina. We maintained an uncomfortable mutual stare for a moment before my feet automatically began backing away; unconsciously desperate to escape the nightmare on my stunned behalf.
Others began to correlate the stench with my shuffling presence and two or three pointed in my direction, outing my soiled situation to their small groups of co-workers.
"Don't look at me!" I yelled as involuntarily as I'd emptied my bowels as I crossed the threshold back into the lot, my shrill echo booming as everyone who hadn't previously noticed my embarrassment did then at that exact moment. My mind was racing, while also simultaneously completely blank in an odd mix of trauma, shame, panic and despair. My reputation, tarnished in the blink of an eye like my work slacks.
I got to my still open and blinking Porsche, removed the bottom half of my attire and dumped it all right there beside me on the ground, socks included. They were someone else's problem now. With a quick wipe using the discarded clothing I hopped back inside and sped away from the scene, the smell haunting me the whole way like the memory of that day will haunt my every waking moment forever.
An hour's drive home later and I was sitting outside my house afraid to go inside. I didn't tell my wife what happened to me when she greeted me at the front door, balls out, instead storming upstairs to hide in the shower, opting for the inevitable rumor mill to do the job instead. We never spoke of it, ever. I never spoke about much of anything after that…

Unusually for a children’s author around this time, all the witches in her work are portrayed positively and her books are a wonderful read. Check her out - you won’t regret it.

2023.03.25 10:38 Just_KF Sniper Elite 5 is not for sniping
I read this a lot, so I want to bring in my thoughts.
It largely depends on how Karl plays. I checked this in various missions, starting with Atlantic Wall and way into the DLC.
In the very first mission I managed to clear up the very large gun area, including all but one, including people typically located inside the gun building - sit down before you read this - from almost 500 metres away. I could have walked there and confronted them with pistol and SMG. Same applies to the seafront area, anything between 200m and 500m.
Occupied Residence and Spy Academy are of a similar nature but offer similar opportunities, the latter in fact can be half emptied before you even approach the land and get invaded. You just need the right weapon play clever.
War Factory forces you to a much closer distance to your enemies, but then some variety doesn't harm. I'm not a big fan of this map to be honest but it has its merits once you start knowing it.
Then comes Festung Guernsey. Aren't those vast expanses are great? Long range, tank fight, plus the usual confined submarine docks. By the way, I managed to clear those building pretty much without being shot at.
Liberation, started the right way, is a rapid fire sniping challenge. Secret Weapons has its five star sniping locations too, which can offer a lot of fun before you infiltrate the dome.
Rubble and Ruin, before the sewer, is one of my favourite maps. Not much sniping but still good opportunities at medium distance.
The DLC missions too (apart from the last one, which is empty) offer great sniping spots. For example, one time I got stuck into being stealth in Conqueror and I managed to snipe probably 6 or 7 targets before sliding down the starting point. Not easy, it needs patience and good eyes in that mist. The whole valley was clear (apart one officer) before I got into the trenches. I later found that the house to the right was already cleared as those enemies came to support their side.
Note that I could have made the opposite case, i.e. you can't snipe, for all of the missions. That's why I say that it largely depends on how Karl's play (that also has an effect on the invader game as different Karls require their own tactics).
I like being a guest in coop games as the game is mostly about adapting the style of your host. The coop games I have gone through range from ones with high ranking hosts playing civilian and gunning down everyone to others playing hard or authentic and using mostly melee and the DL carbine. There is a lot to learn from adapting and observing when you are pushed out of your comfort zone.
If you managed to read this whopper to the end I greatly admire your patience, you are probably a good sniper.

2023.03.25 10:25 StarBurstero Analysis of Neo Egoist League Teams
Prologue I've been wanting to make an analysis on the NEL Teams as of now but couldn't before. Now with the Bastard Munchen vs Ubers starting, I believe I have a good idea on all of the team structures. I'll be discussing how each Blue Lock Players have adapted into their new surroundings. I hope you enjoy this medium-long analysis with a few little theories added on top of it.
Introduction https://preview.redd.it/j8trvt37stpa1.png?width=1115&format=png&auto=webp&s=6d1f97db2d2f77df6f7195922cdb7950d11d9520 The World of pros - Imgur The NEL arc is a setting where the Blue Lockers have to challenge themselves to live among the pros.As Ego said before, it really is like an interesting game of musical chairs with its own unique set of rules. Our Blue Lockers have many options to survive whether it's adapting to the team, coexisting or turning the team into their own game of musical chairs. I'm going to be discussing how each of our Blue Lockers have manage to survive so far.
Barcha: A Canvas If I had to describe the U-20 Barcha team system. It would be like a clear canvas without any idea on it so far. The team had an unpainted canvas where anyone could pour their creativity on it. Which is what Bachira did, after hearing Lavinho's philosophy of copying other strong players into his playstyle. Bachira went on to train his imagination and body in order to embody the ideals of Ginga into his monster playstyle. Leading to him creating a whole new dribbling style of Ginga x Monster.
Adult Bachira is now able to wait and react to others with his new dribbling style. What's interesting about this is not only is his dribbling style more efficient with him spending less energy on his center of gravity towards the ball. His teammates are now able to match up to Bachira's rhythm which previously in the story was unreadable with his crazy like dribbling style(child). He's basically turned this into a Kaiser like system where the U-20 Barcha teammates and Blue Lockers(Otaya and U-20 defenders in the future) can now react with his plays allowing him to mass produce goals as a striker.
Bee Shot! In the future, I suspect the story will highlight how much of a monster Bachira has become with Lavinho's philosophy of copying stronger players into his playstyle and evolving his monster even further. It's true that Barcha is a relatively weak team, but with someone like Bachira to lead them into turning 0 to 1 as a striker. They could become a team in the league that could mass produce goals for Bachira similar to how Kaiser was the one mass producing goals for Bastard Munchen with his Kaiser impact.
Manshine City: Superstars Manshine City is an interesting team to dissect, a team that is known for focusing on speed and rush. This team has a superstar like system where any forwards can shine under the right circumstances. I'll explain futher below while dissecting each of the three main stars on the team.
Speed Panther Chigiri Chigiri is a player that a few people in the fandom tend to underrate just because he focuses solely on speed. Personally, that's what makes him such an exceptional player. Someone who focuses solely on speed and hones it into a powerful weapon is capable of great things like Loki for example. Before the NEL arc, his speed was the only weapon he had in order to score goals for himself, but it wasn't enough to compete with the top strikers in Blue Lock. Now with the addition of his golden zone, he's able to utilize a Mach cut-in to enter 44 degrees and 19 meters away from the goal zone to mass produce goals. On paper it sounds like something easy to counter if you know it's coming, but it's impossible to counter the moment he touches his golden zone. A powerful speed x Golden Zone has created an amazing winger like Chigiri. I believe he'll score a goal against P.X.G to further highlight this and possibly the only goal scored against P.X.G...
Neoism! Copy Master Chameleon Reo Before I touch on Reo's development, I'm going to comment on the Reo and Nagi relationship drama....
Reo is an exceptional player with an amazing dexterity with highly balanced stats that allows him to copy almost any play. His only fault as a player is that he doesn't understand how amazing he is and believes he needs an otherworldly talent to be his guiding star. Don't get me wrong, Nagi and Reo will win the world cup together, but they're going about this the wrong way. They need to grow stronger individually and stop relying on each other. I believe there will be another breakup soon possibly in the 2nd or 3rd NEL match for Manshine City and it'll be further explored in Blue Lock: Nagi (Check it out! It's a really great read).
I believe the hint to Reo's development lies in him perfecting his copying ability and completing his fusion of Itoshi Sae and Itoshi Rin as he mentioned before. Once the breakup happens, he'll focus on his physicals even more to create a body that allows this fusion. This will allow him to be a game master to pass to anyone he deems worthy enough to handle his passes and score whatever goals he wants. By creating the perfect body to handle both Itoshi Sae and Itoshi Rin plays, it'll no longer be a mere copy, but something of his own origin. We could possibly see the newly debut Reo at the end of the NEL.

Giver of Life and Bringer of Death Nagi SeishiroSame with Reo, Nagi has seemingly reverted back to his old mindset. I believe he'll have his ego crushed in the P.X.G match and be reawakened in the Barcha or Ubers match. Most likely Ubers, as him and Barou have a very interesting rivalry and Barou could possibly wake up the sleeping Nagi Seishiro's newly found ego.
Nagi is a genius with his genius trap like ability of "creating a trap that blows life into a play" or "An absorbing trap that kills the momentum to zero"(
Life and Death) . He's an interesting character that has a life and death motif going on a lot. He's added even more new traps into his arsenals such as a trap that can reset a play to zero. To me that's personally the biggest hint to Nagi's development and Agi was going in the right direction while teaching Nagi.
By Nagi being able to reset a play whenever he wants with his traps, this would allow him to take a moment to observe the situation and from there start to playmake. He could create his own plays that flows off his traps and turn the game around in an instant. It's such an interesting idea and I personally hope he overcomes this trial and makes a comeback by his 4th NEL match. By the end of the arc, we could potentially see the rebirth of Nagi Seishirou who can now playmake, has more football knowledge and is more of a threat on the field. He would no longer be a baby chick, but a full-grown adult chicken ready to rumble.
A trap that resets a play to Zero!!! *Superstars!*After finally analyzing the three main stars of Manshine City. I believe their next two matches will focus on Chigiri being the main star against P.X.G while Reo will be the main star against Barcha after the breakup. This will lead to the rebirth of the team with their 4th match against Ubers. With Nagi returning to the role of creating on the field and Reo/Chigiri having a strong presence on the field as it was intended.
Ubers: Yin & Yang Defense (Yang): I'll start off with the defense aspect of Ubers. The midfield is crowded with around 5 players with Niko serving as a center midfielder. Which is interesting, but this allows him to serve as a watch tower in the midfield and to begin a high press with his teammates when the opposition has the ball. The moment the opposition breaks past the midfield and enters the backline is when the two center backs (Aryu and Aiku being to move in). Aiku with his meta vision should be able to pick up the most vulnerable spaces in his side of the field while Aryu with his long limbs can help to try and recover the ball. When all else fails, is when comes the sweeper and New Gen 11 player Lorenzo...
You can tell this formation was made specifically with Lorenzo and Barou in mind after chapter 211. Lorenzo serves a sweeper on defense that helps to pick up loose balls or steal balls from opposing players when the opposition is trying to score. With his excellent vision, ridiculous zombie limbs and physique he was able to stop a Kaiser Impact before it hit the ball! He's an incredible defensive player that seems to be the main boss of Uber's defense, but the moment Ubers has the ball is when the switch happens!
I love how strategic Ubers is! Attack (Yin): Niko and Lorenzo proceed to swap places with Niko now acting as a center back and fulfilling his role as a watch tower even more now with his spatial awareness(and possibly meta vision later in match which is highly likely). This allows Lorenzo to act as a midfielder and bypass the enemies with his extreme zombie like dribbling while connecting with his team members through passes to avoid the opposing team. While all of their attention is on Lorenzo, this will allow the Shadow King Barou to score goals. Which I believe is one of the main reasons Barou was able to mass produce goals during Barcha, but that would be a bit too easy...
What's interesting about Uber's formation is that it's a 3-5-1-1. With Sendou serving behind Barou, I believe Sendou serves as a light source for Barou. You see in the Nagi spinoff and the Manga, it's stated and shown multiple times that Barou is at his best when he can work freely without anyone pressuring him. With Sendou serving a sort of false striker, he's able to keep the heat off Barou and allows Barou to work undetected and mass produce goals.
Shadow King...I wonder what new techniques he picked up in Ubers. Really makes ya think We could potentially see a varied different number of plays with Barou working in the shadows while Lorenzo or Sendou keeps the attention off of him. The only players who would most likely have a good idea of where Barou is hiding would either be those with meta vision or those with extremely high perception like Lorenzo. Uber's team is really interesting because it shows that to survive in a team like this, Barou had to co-exist with the Ace Defender of the team Lorenzo to give birth to such a team. It's another example of how one survives in a Pro like environment!
Bastard Munchen: Throne Wars Two Princes fighting for the throne! Side Note: This will be the only section where I will not focus on every relevant BL Player. I apologize Yuki fans (Cool Rival to Isagi), Hiori fans(Already made a post on his development😊
Hiori's potential as a playmaker : BlueLock (reddit.com) ) , Raichi fans (He's set up for some great defensive showcase in the Ubers match), Gagamaru fans (Amazing goalkeeper) and Igaguri fans.
This team is just a straight up warzone. Unlike the other 3 teams where the wasn't an established system (Barcha) or coexisting with an established system (Ubers). Bastard Munchen already had an established system with Kaiser as the ace that mass produced goals with his Kaiser Impact. The only way for any Blue Lock player to show off their worth would have been to follow along with his system (Impossible for someone like Isagi) or prove that you're a better option than Kaiser. With the latter option leading to the fierce power struggle that we're seeing 3 matches later even against Ubers as of now.
What will be the outcome of the power struggle? It's hard to say, but I believe that Bastard Munchen vs Ubers is possibly when the heart of Bastard Munchen will finally be established. There are several reasons why I believe this match will be the ending of the power struggle. The 1st major reason is that I believe Ness will be replaced by Hiori during this match(Read my last post for details if you're interested.). The 2nd major reason is the reveal of Isagi's 100% as of chapter 208. If Isagi has really managed to boost up his chances of scoring a goal to 100% against someone even like Kaiser. Then we're set up for either 1 or 2 Isagi goals against Ubers. I see Isagi scoring at least 1 with Kaiser scoring at least 1, the 3rd goal could be an unknown wildcard like Kunigami or one of the two princes.
I'm excited to see his 100% goal scoring formula soon! Show us your Ego Striker! With most of the Blue Lock players now invading Bastard Munchen's starting 11 and possibly replacing like Ness by the start of the P.X.G match along with Isagi proving that he's just as equal (or better) at scoring goals like Kaiser. This will lead into Kaiser fulfilling the Naked King prophecy by the start of the P.X.G match. Although a King without his clothes is still a king, I believe the P.X.G match will help to further grow Kaiser as a player with his rival Isagi proving to be an obstacle to him.
P.X.G: Troublesome Youngsters Side Note: Entire section will literally be speculation, hopefully you enjoy it/take it into consideration.
P.X.G's Philosophy: P.X.G's philosophy is.....nothing. France in Blue Lock was described as a league acting as a gateway to success for newcomers and young players. I believe it's one of the reasons Loki a player who's 17 years old genius is mentoring P.X.G. It serves more of a team to show off up and coming new talents like Rin, Shidou and possibly a new gen 11 if they have one(very likely).
New Gen 11: Center Midfielde Center Attacking Midfielder
Possible New Gen 11?
I believe P.X.G will have a genius playmaking CAM/CM on their team. He could serve as the reason why they were able to bypass someone like Lorenzo very easily (he most likely played if he's the type to switch to MF) and win against Ubers. Not to mention he could easily serve as the link between Rin and Shidou and could feed them goals easily. There's one more important thing to note in the image, take a look at his right foot. It looks like he could have possibly made a side pass/backheel pass to Rin allowing him to score that amazing goal we see as of now. Also, my last reason for thinking he's a NG 11 is that his design is fire, it's a shallow reason, but holy cow is his design is fire.
Shidou and Kunigami Excited to see him again soon Not much to say on Shidou, but we'll most likely see a confrontation of Kunigami vs Shidou. With Shidou possibly leveling up and forming chemical reactions with a NG 11 CAM/CM against Kunigami who will regain his original hero personality against Shidou and show him how he's improved. We could see a wildcard flashback of why he became the way he did with him finally coming to terms with it or surpassing his ego.

Rin and Isagi: I expect Rin in this match to finally understand his destroyer ego and learn how to use it well. With him switching from a logical playstyle to a more instinctive playstyle like his destroyer mode. I expect Isagi to be the catalyst for him returning to his destroyer mode and the only one who could possibly coordinate with Rin would be the NG 11 playmaker. We could possibly see various combinations between the two of them.
Bonus section: Isagi's Original Ego( True Spatial Awareness: Original Ego : BlueLock (reddit.com) )Saw a pretty cool theory a while back on Isagi unlocking his original ego before his Ichinan High carrier. I like this theory mainly because the Bastard Munchen vs P.X.G match could serve as a battle between Original Egos (Isagi and Kunigami) vs Original Egos (Rin and Shidou). With Rin returning to his destroyer Ego, Kunigami returning to his Hero Ego, Shidou returning to his Horny Ego????(honestly not sure if he has one, but we could potentially see his backstory in this match) and Isagi returning to his original ego. If what the light novel states is true about Isagi being able to just sense everything around him to the point of telling when it would rain, feeling the air around him and spotting a mosquitoes from a distance. This would further level up all his current abilities to the next level to the point he just knows where everything on the field is automatically. Honestly, I'm excited to see Rin, Shidou, NG11 cool dude vs Yoichi, Kunigami and Kaiser. I think it could possibly be the best match in the series as of now.
Thank you for reading this long analysis/theory, let me know what you think down below. submitted by
