Precure Daily's Sixth Anniversary

On April 10, 2018, I posted the first review in the project that became Precure Daily. It wasn't actually on tumblr at that time, but on Facebook. The plan was to watch an episode every day and just post some thoughts, but it evolved into reviews and screenshots and that necessitated a whole blog, and here we are. That was six years ago today!

Six years. It's hard to believe. I honestly, truly didn't think I'd still be doing this. Whether I petered out before the end, or managed to get it all done in the 2-3 years I anticipated, I figured I'd have stopped by now. But somehow I haven't given up yet! I'm still watching, still writing, and still getting new fans to share with, and that makes it all worth it.

The past year was slow, I will readily acknowledge it. I only got about 7 reviews out in that time, including the one that just went up earlier today, but one of those was the Go Go movie. That was a whole undertaking, it took me nine months to get out. Granted, for about 6 of those 9 months it was just sitting there unchanged. I'd open it occasionally to poke at it but then not end up getting much done. Maybe it still wasn't the best it could have been but I'm proud of it nonetheless. It was a good review for a good movie. Also, I got to review the very first All Stars, even if it was a short film. Having recently wached the most recent All Stars brings that experience full circle and it's real nice.

One small hiccup is that, at the time of writing, I haven't yet gotten out the traditional Honoka birthday post. I just haven't had time to sit down and gather artwork for it. Hopefully that'll come out in the next day or two!

Outside of the blog, let's look at the wider world of the Precure series over the last year

I said last year that I hadn't finished Delicious Party, and that's still true. When it was on air, I was watching it with a friend and she was really into it; we are going to resume watching together to finally push through it.

HIrogaru Sky's second half was good, it lacked a little bit of the driving power of the first half and the villain plot never properly came together in my opionion. I still love the characters, I think they're my favorite cast in a good while.

I did not watch Otona Precure. Although I've watched Go Go before, I want to finish this current watchthrough for the blog before I jump into it. Maybe I'll even review it as I go, that remains to be seen. I've heard mixed things about it and I'm not very big on the idea that the girls just go back to teenagers when they transform, but I'll reserve judgment.

Wonderful Precure did not appeal to me when information started coming out, and I fell off it for a few weeks when the first couple eps didn't impress me, but I decided to keep going and it's thoroughly enjoyable. I don't think it's going to crack my top 10 but it should be a solid middle of the road series.

I watched the Delicious Party Precure movie and Precure All Stars F with friends in fairly close proximity, and wow do those movies exist on opposite ends of the spectrum. DeliPa's film was one of the weakest Precure movies I've seen, while All Star F was phenomenal. I need to rewatch it.

I did say last year that the blog would look different when I finish Go Go. That is still true. I should be able to wrap that up in a few months, then comes the next phase of things. Deets when it happens.

And also just because I can, here's some recommendations for shows outside of Precure you should watch that came out in the last year-ish:

Oshi no Ko

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (featuring Wonderful Precure's Tanezaki Atsumi as a monotone elf)

SPY x FAMILY (featuring Wonderful Precure's Tanezaki Atsumi as a psychic toddler)

Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger

The Last of Us

And I think that's it for this year's update! Here's to another year of watching and writing about Precure! Thanks as always to my loyal friends and fans for making this project a success: @sailorzombiestar, @vertixscribe, PaintedOutlaw, @hanasaki-tsubomi, yugimon135 (can't tag you for some reason), and my newest fan @nono-bunny.

So. Its out. This is obviously pretty awesome sauce (sorry not sorry jas) and like.

wow.

so it started, middle/late 2011, almost 12 years ago. Some silly little university kids making a stupid horror puppet show. Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling, creating Dont Hug Me Im Scared. What a way to start of the 2010s huh.

After a series of short videos, created for the Kickstarter, the sequel was created. Tony The Talking Clock was he spectacle of 2014 tumblr, eventually winning the most coveted title a fictional outcast could probably get, ‘Tumblr Sexyman.’ The fandom at this time was WILD, with the whole IceHell genre and the ‘Paige x Tony’ fanatics. Not to mention that kids react video.

At this same year, my personal skrunkle scrimblo came around. The Love Cult was introduced by the ringleader Shrignold, worshipping a stone who they fed gravel. Nobody knows why or how the living FUCK they managed to start a cult like this, but here we go. This was the first time the gang was seen outside, and this circled around Yellow Guy (whos a pig??)

Along comes 2015, introducing the absolute LEGEND, COLIN. THE. COMPUTER. Legend in the making, stupid self absorbed fucktwat, and the computery guy!! Also, the outro was a bop. By now, the DHMIS community had grown a fanbase, the watch count of the series so far over 3 Million!!1!

AND NOW. THIS IS WHEN SHIT GETS REAL!!

dhmis five. the talking point of every internet kids trauma. This episode was about being helfy!,2 Joined by the silly goofy Healthy Band, duck guy and yellow (red guy, whered he go?) learned all about why you shouldnt eat food from a strangers plate!! What made DHMIS special was its unsettling gore, which was shown perfectly in the scene where duck gets his. organs took out! graphically! Awesome!

then the finale came. dhmis 6, 2016, 6. years ago now. 6 whole years. introducing the harsh reality of the real world, the absoloute CHAD which we call Larry, Lars, Larson, Lamp Guy, THE LAMP1!11 Teaching (drunk, on drugs, sleep deprived, who knows?) yellow guy all about the wonderful dreams you can have, including eating a drink, buying a hat, losing your friends and drowning in oil of course! This episode was what made this whole puppet show a real nightmare. skrunkle yellow guy gets (unfortunately) mind-tortured by all the teachers, including the saxaphone. still really wanna know how to buy a canoe. At the end, we finally found out who was the brains behind all of this, none other than yellow guys DAD himself, ROY. This is why, perhaps, this whole fever dream nightmare was based around June 19th Fathers day. This is what, we all though, the end was. 5 years of youtube wonder, Becky Joe and Baker created a phenomenon that shocked the internet in perhaps a million different ways. But the positive feedback was overwhelming, woohoo!

By now, the improvement was MASSIVE. as shown below :

And now. This is when we all thought it was over. Until 2 years later, in 2018, all hope was lost. Until those 2 words,

WAKEY WAKEY!!

this was a 30 second short trailer for the DHMIS Pilot, showing at the 2019 Sundance film festival!

This is where it gets a bit weird, because not only is the original Wakey Wakey deleted, the full thing was never shown anywhere else. the only surviving footage of this was the bad quality pirated videos , with those 2 girls laughing thunderously in the background. A new sexyman, MEAN STEVE (🤤, sorry not sorry) WAS INTRODUCED! WE ALL WANNA SEE HIM IN HIS FULL METAL STICK GLORY! But nah we didnt get that. We didnt get a show, which we all because suspicious of.

well. thats what we thought.

2020. the year of the corona. no hope, isolation. until a lovely woman named Becky Sloan posted a lil thing on her instagram. ‘Were making a tv shooowwww! 📺👀📺👀📺👀📺👀’ AND THIS IS WHERE IT GOT WILDER AWESOMER EPICER!!! WE WAITED AND WE WAITED AND WE FINALLY GOT SOME CONFIRMATION! THIS WAS AWESOME! it got picked up by a charity project by the name of BFI YAC,, hoping to pick up on small industries work! AND IT DID!

time went by, still no show. we all thought it was over, cancelled, whatever.

2021 ROLLS PAST.

FILMING WAS WRAPPED! IN THE TIME WE WERE ALL GRIEVING AT THE THOUGHTS OF NO TV SHOW, THEY WERE WORKING ON IT THE WHOLE TIMEEE!!

‘WAKEY WAKEY’ as the fandom called it at the time, was coming!

now we wait. until FEB 25 2022. They finished the final sound recording. It was all done, we were all waiting for that special day, June 19th

, Fathers day. , 3 months ago.

and what did we get?

FLY.

THE TRAILER FOR THE NEW SHOW, PREMIERING CHANNEL 4 IN SEPTEMBER!! OH !EM GEE!

Now, we were all anticipating for the new series, we waited EXTREMELY PATIENTLY for this, 4-5 years no less. Honestly we shoulda won an award for the most patient fandom at this point.

SEPTEMBER 2022!

WE GOTTA GET THINGS READY FOR THS BIG DAY! BIG DAY! THE TRAILER WAS OUT! COMING SEPTEMBER 13TH!

but then, disaster struck! ohh no!

HRH Queen Elizabeth fell ill and kicked the bucket. Obviously , this meant not only is the country in ruins now lol! (fuck liz truss basically) But the show (we thought) was in jeopardy! (not really) The 10 days of mourning began, and the All 4 Website announced that the show would be slightly delayed, but coming this month.

THIS MONTH! NOW! FRIDAY 23RD, 2022. THE BIG DAY HAS ARRIVED! 6 SHINING BRAND NEW EPISODES, PREPARED FOR THE BIG TV DEBUT FRIDAY 30TH SEPTEMBER!

THE IMPROVEMENT, BY NOW WAS STUNNING AWESOME EPIC!! LOOKLOOKLOOK!

this new series, which is 1 day old!! fresh new awesome! is AMAZING! 3 WHOLE HOURS FULL OF OUR FAVE TRAFFIC LIGHT TRIO!

(Yes. we know, you still find red guy sexy.)

(AND COLIN. AND THE LAMP. AND A BIT OF TONY TOO!)

JUST THREE OF THEM! CLAYHILL HAD, UNFORTUNATELY, SHRIVELLED UP OR SOMETHING! (I RECKON)

this was obviously a sign that Wakey Wakey is now Lost Media. But we got this! all thanks to that one silly dumb stupid epic 3 minute long short on youtube, made by 2 people, in their free time, DONT HUG ME IM SCARED!

This post is basically, appreciation for Becky Joe and Baker, and the fandom, and everyone who helped in the making of this phenomenon!

Along the way, we’ve encountered our askblogs, most notably @sketchbook-and-tony-adventures !! And the awesome, probably most noted artists of DHMIS tumblr, the epic awesome amazing @amii-stuff @frootrollup? whats the username again? @hecklefreckled & @bernold ! Obviously more as well but i honestly dont remember the usernames :/ And our epic news sharer @creative-time !! Thanks you guys! And some awesome others, like @creechurfoundincheckerboardvoid @dhmispaint and the bezzie mate @xzumichannn !! Woohoo! Thank you guys so much, without this crazy massive fandom, we probably wouldnt have even got this far, crazy right!

So far, the best moments of this 2011-2022 era for me have been

- ‘Where are all you nasty clockfuckers! did you finally fuck that clock?’

- Sketch has a small face

- LisWeegee Adventures In Lurning dubs

- Whoever the heck that spanish dhmis gacha person is!

- That one ‘No bitches’ meme with shrignold :

- My amazing askblog i could never be bothered to do!

- Whoever that tiktok guy is

- “FREELANCERS DESERVE TO DIE!”

- Money Man. Deserves to be a sexyman fr!

- “BYE GUYS! I LOVE YOU!”

- Hearing the first few seconds of the first episode intro. those bells man. something, a feeling im never gonna feel again. ever. something i could experience only once.

The only bad thing. LAMPS SOBERED UP?? WHERED THE DRUGGIE INSOMNIAC VOICE GO?

Anyways. I love yall your all awesome, were finally trending on tumblr again, and we all have worms in our brain!

What have we got to look forward to now?

- DELTARUNE NEW CHAPTERS, 2023? The finale will probably be ready for 2027…

thats literally it. sorry. Hazbin Hotels coming to tv? i guess? lol.

this is obviously a national highlight of 2022 🥱 well no. Its internationally an internet milestone. duh!

LONG LIVE DHMIS!!

10 Anti LO Asks

(Note: All of these asks are before episode 206 (Season 2 finale) so some may be dated.) 1. ok but I love Rachel spent the latter half of 2021 being like ooooh Kronos is coming back!! this is a big deal!! only to timeskip ten years and NOTHING happened. like wow even Kronos isn't a big deal when it comes to how totally not pathetic Persephone is as a 30+ year old doing no work and only being obsessed with a guy she knew for a month. literal masterclass in awful writing. It's almost impressive how bad it is.

2. Deadass I don't even get why RS is like oh yeh nymphs and other creatures should be second class citizens but they're also all "trash" and thus its good and even encouraged to abuse and mistreat them. like yeah that's what was missing, racism where the marginalized group are evil and "deserve" to be abused and mistreated by those with all the power over them. THAT's what mythology was so sorely missing.  jfc. I know a lot of the WT staff are white people and so is Rachel but wtf???

3. It's quite funny how a woman old enough to be my mother cannot draw or write worth shit and there are literal teenagers on this website who are a thousand times the artist and writer she could ever hope to be.

4. This isn’t me trying to be mean but like, why is everything from the book covers to the official merch so ,.. cheap looking? Like these are supposed professionals, not Rachel, doing it, yet they’re still so poorly designed and crafted. It doesn’t help the images Rachel gives time to work with are all in the rushed, ugly style now either 😪

5. I just find it funny that every time an LO fan or even WT promotes it its like ... they ONLY use art from the first 10-ish episodes at best. Like yall, that was over four years ago, why aren't you using current art to be more accurate? Like it's kinda telling on themselves they know the quality declined rapidly after the first few months but are like "just ignore that! look at this three good panels from 2018!"

6. I HATE those panels where RS tries to be anatomically correct to IRL humans and its like omg they look even worse (and are still wildly wrong anyway?? She cannot draw heads to save her life for real). Like lady just work within your stylization, there's a reason people picked up your work off what it used to be versus what it is now.

7. this isnt necessarily LO based but I do find it crazy how people like RS and her fans viewed the original hymn like ugh Demeter is such a bitch why wouldnt she be happy Hades married her daughter like .... you guys are aware ancient brides tended to be married at 14, right? maybe that's why Demeter was pissed and creeped out by him. They're so blinded by their fantasy of this "perfect Hades" that never existed over the truth of a mother defending her literal CHILD.

8. Zeus is objectively the only hot man on cast because he actually has a personality, fashion sense, and pretty hair meanwhile Hades just looks like a dusty old man with zero drip and a million and one red flags 🫣

9. "This style of story telling" what style? just lying and making everything up to where it matches nothing in mythology? my god, she's so concerned over looking like a clever writer who has everything planned out and knows more than anyone else (including actual greeks??? ma'am) over actually telling a decent story. ive never seen someone so self conscious about being perceived as a "real writer" before.

10. Why even use mythology when you won't keep any of the stories true to how they were, change all the relationships, and just make up whatever else instead? At that point just go "this was inspired by the greek myths" and use your own OCs, not claiming you're telling an accurate story with a ton of research put into it. Rachel really just wants to have her cake and eat it too, huh?

[mynewchapter]

Wow!! I didn’t realize I never shared my story of my fur-children. Rescued.

Long read.

TLDR:

Long story short, I had to give my cat Hitome to my parents 10 years ago because my brother-in-law is allergic to cats, in 2013 my parents got a second cat named Shadow. In 2021 my mom ended up moving to a LTC home, and my father was going to give way the cats. I decided I didn't want to risk her at a shelter. Last week our plans were moved up because my father ended up in the hospital. She was so matted, broke my heart. I found a vet that was able to sedate her and shave her. We hesitated but took in Shadow too (we live in a basement). Both cats are now both loved, spoiled, healthy, and happy.

So a little bit of a backstory. Back in 2009 I got a 6 week old kitten, I named Hitome (domestic long hair). She was quite special, in the sense that she didn’t like being pet (she’d follow you, just no touchie),she was picky with her food, and would only eat at the table. She lived with me until 2010, when I gave her to my parents. I was moving in with my sister and her husband was allergic to cats.

Main story

For the first few years she was good there. My parents wanted to get another cat...Hitome is an alone cat and I told them as such, don’t get another cat. My idiot father choose not to listen to me and adopted Shadow (domestic short hair).

When Hitome got older she stopped grooming herself and she started getting terrible mattes. So my parents would go to the pet store near by and got her shaved. When the store stopped dealing with cats, they got a local groomer to come to their apartment and would get her shaved. After her last shave in 2018, my parents told me she was allowing them to brush her, no more mattes. All was good! The last time I visited them was early 2019. Hitome was matte free and everything was good. Sadly I didn’t visit their home for the rest of the year, until late 2020 and that was to grab something so I didn’t see my cat.

In Jan 2021 my mother came down with Covid. It was pretty much touch and go, she ended up going to a LTC in May. The first chance in May my sister and I could grab things for my mother, while there I found Hitome in such terrible matted fur. I was furious. My father made bullshit excuses of why they allowed her to get to that. He also told me that he didn’t want to take care of the cats anymore and thinking of taking them to a shelter. Since at this time Hitome was 12 and doesn’t like being touched, I knew the only one to give her the love she needed was back with me. We weren’t sure about Shadow (story in a bit). But we weren’t sure when we could grab her.

The time to pick her up was forced onto us, when my sister and I discovered that my father had be unconscious, no food or water, and delusional for 3 days at his front door...with two cats inside.He was in the hospital for about 3 weeks. Between work and both my sister and I living far away from my parents, for a week we could only go every 3 days to see the cats, that were sadly alone in the home. I tried to make sure they had a ton of water, a lot of dry food and every time I went over I gave them wet food. Still horrifies me thinking of that time.

Since I wasn’t sure how she would react to being shaved, I found a vet that could shave Hitome but also sedate her if needed be, I brought her over for a checkup and a shave.She had a clean bill of health, minus some stress...which was like...DUH!

I didn’t take her out of the kennel until we got home and once she went to roam free....I cried when I saw her fully shaved, how much pain was relieved. My parents told me she couldn’t jump anymore and assumed because she was old. It took a few months before we had evidence that she could still in fact jump and that it was the matting that prevented her. We did buy her some steps for the bed though, since she is getting older.

I’ve had her for 1.5 years now and I know she’s happy. She’s spoiled. She also has regular vet visits, grooming visits

Now on to Shadow.

Even though I told them not to get another cat, my stupid father got one. All I know about Shadow is that was they got him from a shelter, he was able 6 months old. Hitome was 4-years-old. I’m also not sure how they got along.

Shadow was adorable and friendly when I first met him. But things changed after my mother had a stroke in 2018. When I visited Shadow would attack me. Everyone else that visited when I was over, he seemed all friendly with, but me he was an asshole. This was one of the reasons I wasn’t sure if I could bring him home.

In a sense, I’m thankful for the pandemic, because so many shelters were full and couldn’t take him. Also, with him being a black kitty, he might have had worse luck being adopted. I spent the whole week they were alone at the apartment trying to find someone who could take him. My (now husband) fiance and I live in a basement and weren’t sure if we could have room for two cats. But he saw the stress I was in. He originally thought I said that Shadow was an asshole so was hesitant, I clarified that he was only an asshole to me, he loves everyone else. So we took him to the vet (got a matte shaved off his back) and a check up. He was healthy too.

Sadly, we found that he was attacking me, because after my mom had her stroke the caring of the cats went downhill. So the only time Shadow would get attention would be when he attacked my father’s legs. He has grown out of it (mostly) and is now one of the bestest boys I’ve ever had and is just as spoiled as his sister.

Also, even though they lived together for 8 years, Hitome hates Shadows guts. She will growl at him whenever she sees him (we’ve tried everything). So at night they are separated and never left unsupervised. But there are times when Hitome is sleeping where Shadow will take a nap near her.

I’m sad I lost 10 years with my baby girl, but I’m defiantly making up for it now. 

If you got this far, thanks for reading along.These are my two prides and joys.

最近还没有新的project，所以跟放假无异。真惬意！

Although we didn't manage to do our Morning Routine, and I ended up moving the planned Resume Dollmaking plan to some other day (Wednesday? Thursday?), the rest of today was pretty great!

Seeing Dune (in fact—only one-third of it so far) on Netflix and streaming it on Discord turned out to be a success!

Seeing the movie with an unexpected TimothEÊĒÉ Chalamet Doubter—who seems to shiver every time the dude reappears on-screen—is hilarious. "I've been seeing this movie for a while now and I haven't seen him change his expression—oh wait, finally." It's the fact that this is from someone who dabbles in acting themself that makes it such a burn!

Honestly, we should pit Lyi the TimothÈËÊÉ Apologist with them together. This world has too much love and peace, there is not enough c h a o s!

Will resume the rest of Dune later tonight. And that will be after I game with Ritsu, who insisted that today we should play our old Resident Evil 6 instead. Her reasoning? "The way we suck has gone stale. We should be bolder and fail in new avenues! Be a generalist even in the art of being fucking failures!"

Please. Past Lyn had played RE6 with this lil' ass before. Remember the "大姐 I give you my controller! Control my character and control Chris just for this segment! ... WOW YOU SO AMAZING, YOU CONTROL CHRIS WITH YOUR FOOT!" session and the "大姐 WOOHOO BLAST THAT HELICOPTER WITH BAZOOKA! I'll be hiding in this room behind you and give you moral support! If you're near death I will come out and inject you with medicine! I NOW ISSA DOCTOR! ...WHAT? THESE GUNS ARE FOR COSPLAY!"

Oh god. We are not even gonna get past the first part of Level 1, are we?

---------------

The best thing about today is that I finally get to study.

That reminds me! I have never documented Miki the pencil case in this garden before. I think she was created by 2018 Lyndises. Ah, maybe next time.

----

Whenever I have time, however short that period might be, the book I always have the most interest in is Buddhist Ethics. Which... is really different from the choice of, say, Lyndises of a Few Years Ago. Fionn has such a hold on me, damn it.

Not that I'm complaining; I just like seeing him happy. I like seeing him think. I like hearing him explain shits. I just like hanging out with him.

The last time, the last Lyn stopped at the chapter discussing Buddhaghosa's Visuddhimagga ("The Path of Purification"). I did a bit of revision on it because I kinda forgot what's it about, and I can't continue if I forgot.

Visuddhimagga is a Theravadin ethical treatise. That means the self-liberation of the student (ya know, the one who's taking up the path) is the central goal. I have seen some Mahayana scholars and philosophers disparage Theravada school for being self-centered because their focus is self-liberation instead of "the liberation of all sentient beings." But man! Sectarian disputes, mate. Quite an unfair accusation, too, methinks.

Look at the central value Buddhaghosa emphasizes:

Generosity.

And he didn't mean generosity in finances or material goods. It's not about "a set of actions." Buddhaghosa's concept of generosity is an orientation. A preference in seeing the world; it's a whole-ass path. More specifically, it means being generous with one's time, patience, knowledge, effort, care, possessions—everything you own is liable to be given to anyone else who needs it more. That kind of generosity.

I really can't see how that makes the Theravada school selfish. Is the accusation aimed more at the intent of a Theravadin Buddhist instead of their ethical stance? "You're only doing all of these good things for your eventual liberation instead of to liberate everyone together!" That sorta thing?

Hmm. On paper, that intent does seem self-centered. But if putting Theravadin ethics into practice benefits people around that student in effect—is the accusation of selfishness really as meaningful as it sounds?

Look over here:

The ultimate goal of practicing generosity is the attainment of nonegocentricity, a.k.a the ethical side of anattā, "non-self."

Oh, but there is an additional side to practicing generosity, too. A phenomenological one.

Basically, one adopts the preference of generosity because the world is so interdependent (pratītyasamutpāda, "dependent co-arising") that any distinction between one's self and others is illusionary and arbitrary. That is a phenomenological realization—it's knowledge regarding how the world is perceived. When you give to someone, you didn't lose shit. That someone gained what you gave, and that translates to a mutual gain for both of you.

"When the mouth eats from the hand, the entire body benefits—the hand did not lose anything at all. It never had. But if the hand doesn't realize this, then it convinces itself it's now at a disadvantage and suffers from an invisible, nonexisting loss."

Hee hee! It's so nice to have someone like Fionn to provide commentaries.

---

Today's real new chapter is on the Mahayana treatise, specifically from the Mādhyamaka school: Śāntideva's Bodhicaryavatara ("How to Lead an Awakened Life").

The book noted the different metaphors Buddhaghosa and Śāntideva used, gleaned easily even from the title of their treatises. Buddhaghosa emphasized "purification," that is to say, removing negative qualities to purify one's conduct. Santideva's is a path of accumulation, which is where you collect noble qualities like Pokemon. These virtues are, you guessed it, the pāramitā, "perfections."

Pāramitā is such a Mahayana concept. As soon as you see these being mentioned, it's gotta be a Mahayana school. It harkens a bit to virtue ethics, methinks, as espoused by Ancient Greek philosophers.

Honestly, we haven't really gotten far into this subchapter. Garfield is an expert on Santideva's treatise, so he has a lot to say about it. In comparison, Visuddhimagga was more of Maria Helm's expertise, if I recall correctly.

For now, my favorite part of this subchapter is about the difference between the so-called "aspiring" and "engaged" modes of practice.

Aspirants are people who learn from philosophical classes, reading, reflections, and discourses—good old discursive knowledge you get by "hearing from others." It's good intentions—but no actions yet. That's not all; to hear about ethics from secondhand sources like that is to gain knowledge through concepts and abstract thoughts communicated by other people. That means a certain level of reality distortion not unlike learning about philosophy through stories and fiction and nonfiction articles.

To Santideva, one has to really put what they have heard into experiments and practice because then that knowledge becomes direct and experiential. "Knowledge gained from perception itself."

To practice the path of the Bodhisattva, empiricism is of utmost importance. "Knowing" isn't enough. "Seeing" is more important.

I agree with that, even if cognitive science would argue against framing perceptions as direct and less distorted than "discourses." Again, human brains are not that reliable.

We're mostly in agreement here, however; the reason why I favor ethics and phenomenology in philosophy over shits like metaphysics is because these are domains that can be put into practice. These are intellectual naval-gazing that influence actions, and therefore effects!

... Heh. "Empiricism" reminds me of someone.

I wanna start reading The Lies That Bind starting this week.

I'm gonna bring it to that stupid wedding anyway. Might as well start reading now.

I already like the quote Kwame selected.

#a piece to the rubble

[fantasyinvader]

Tomorrow I'm going to wake up, go to work, come home, wait for my laptop to start up after updating, and read the final chapter of Dungeon Meshi. Like, wow. What a trip it's been. Think it was back in 2018 I started reading this, but due to being a monthly series it feels like some of the arcs were really recent. Like the fight against Thistle was two years ago, What!? And the chapter I took my background from was in December of 2019. Insane. I mean, sure the last five chapters have been the epilogue to flesh out the ending after Laios fulfilled his destiny and ate the final boss, so it's not like I didn't know this was coming. And even then, I made a prediction a couple of years ago about how much longer the series had left. This is going to be my last trip to the /tg/ board to see the thread for the new chapter, though admittedly those were often locked by the time I got there, because this series was so good even the guys who are all about D&D were supporting it and going nuts over the world-building of the series. I mean, people were pointing out stuff from Marcille's design to argue she was a half-elf years before she was revealed as one, or you get the moments like when the hole in Senshi's backstory (that he's been in the dungeon for 10 years when it was only discovered 6 years ago) are intentional foreshadowing.

I'm… I don't think I've ever experienced a manga ending like this. With me, so many where the manga was axed, or translators dropped the series, or the series was already or mostly complete when I started it or, in the case of Naruto, I was simply waiting for the ending after it looked like things were wrapping up only for Kishi to give us a long, boring, bullshitty, fodder for anime filler war arc that drained whatever good will I still had for the series. This has been a series I've followed for years, loving it every step of the way, and it's ending on such a high note that it all feels like it was a journey I myself was on. I don't think I'll ever experience a manga like this again.

And to think, it all started when I saw joking edits about how elves are a proud and noble race, they are not lewd.

ALYCIA BAUMGARDNER: I WANT ALL THE SMOKE

 Undisputed champion hunting Taylor, Serrano, Cameron and Mayer after revenge mission in Detroit 

Alycia Baumgardner is hunting the biggest names in the sport – but only when she completes a revenge mission in style as she defends her undisputed Super-Featherweight title against old foe Christina Linardatou at the Masonic Temple in Detroit on Saturday night, live worldwide on DAZN.   Baumgardner (14-1 7 KOs) headlines in her hometown for the first time as she makes the second defense of her undisputed crown and can right the only loss of her career in the process as she meets Linardatou (14-2 6 KOs), the Greek who defeated her over eight rounds in July 2018.   ‘The Bomb’ became undisputed with a huge win over Mikaela Mayer in London in October and now headlining at home, the 29 year old is getting a taste of the big time and wants more, providing she can exact her revenge on Saturday night.   “I’m writing a book, on who I am,” said Baumgardner. “Winning on Saturday closes a chapter. People are saying, ‘well Christina was her only loss’. There are only clips of the fight on YouTube, I’ve never seen the whole fight. I remember when I was in the ring that night and her hand was raised, I was like ‘damn, I’ve got my first loss’. But then I was like, ‘I’m not done, who cares?’    “It was needed for growth, and I want people to recognize what growth looks like; it’s ugly, and it hurts. But there’s light at the end of the tunnel and it tells a story.    “I wanted to show people that a loss doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I got to see at that given time, what it would have looked like had I won because I saw her career; she became a World champion after that. And I thought ‘wow, that could have been me’ but everything comes back full circle, and I am happy everything played out the way it was supposed to as now I’m undisputed and fighting her in my backyard. I keep thinking how the fight is going to play out, it will be spectacular, it will give me the feeling that this is what I have been waiting for and I am going to punish her.    “I want her to know that she is in with someone that isn’t the same fighter that she fought five years ago. I chose her. I could have fought anyone, but I chose her. She’s hungry and she should be. She has fought some great fighters, and she’s pumped that she’s beaten me before, that drives her, but she has no idea. After the first fight she came up to me and said you are the hardest fighter I’ve ever fought. If she thinks I hit hard then, just wait until she gets this work. You are in there with a dog, and I am going to punish you.   “To be in this era now as a woman fighter is everything I imagined when I turned pro. I can say I am part of history and we have been able to showcase to the world what a woman athlete looks like.    “I would love a fight with Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano, Chantelle Cameron; those are huge fights. We have undisputed champions at every weight class and it builds to big fights, whatever way you look at it. A rematch with Mikaela, even at 135lbs, would be great, to beat her in the States in front of a sold-out crowd would be amazing. I want the Katie fight, I was there in Dublin, and I saw something different. I want all the girls, I’m hungry, I’m a fighter and I like a challenge.    “This is going to show everything, the full package, people have seen glimpses and in my last performance I gave myself a B, there’s an A+ out there and on Saturday it’s going to be that.”   Baumgardner’s defense is part of a big night of action in Detroit as Cuban amateur sensation Any Cruz makes his professional debut against former World title challenger Juan Carlos Burgos.   Michigan Heavyweight Jermaine Franklin returns to action after back-to-back fights in London, England against Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte, and he faces unbeaten Mexican Issac Munoz, while the night is kicked-off live on DAZN by Detroit’s Ja’Rico O’Quinn taking on Carlos Mujica over ten rounds at Featherweight.

[septembersghost]

I’m glad many who are touring have been getting good reviews. Even the non-fans have been getting drawn in- not with just her music- but others too via live music- i.e. HS. Sadly, ticket issues need to be addressed. Prices are terrible- profits are pocketed by those not creating the art-some musicians that may be involved in reselling a portion of their tickets on the third market or dynamic pricing. startribune. com/taylor-swift-eras-tour-concert-review-minneapolis-us-bank-stadium/600285014/

totally agree on all points - it's thrilling, even from afar, seeing people be able to unite in the joy of live music again, to see these musicians and their art embraced and celebrated and uplifting so many. but something needs to be done about the price gauging/ticketmaster situations (which isn't the artists' faults).

"Swift's conceit is bold and brilliant: grouping songs album by album, nonchronologically, from throughout her 10-LP recording career, which began in 2006. She started Friday with two deep tracks from 2019's "Lover," the first of four new albums she's released since her last tour in 2018, and ended with a set of selections from last year's "Midnights."

When it comes to marathon concerts, Bruce Springsteen, who set a record of 4 hours and 6 minutes (38 songs), may be more impassioned and urgent, Paul McCartney (38 songs) may be more blissfully nostalgic, and we won't experience Beyoncé (34 songs) until July 20 but she's devoting nearly half of her current tour to material from her latest album. In other words, those legends invariably leave fans wanting more — this favorite song or that one.

Not Tay Tay. Her show Friday may be the most fan-fulfilling show I've ever seen in 48 years of reviewing. It's rivaled only by Barbra Streisand's 1994 tour, her first in 28 years, that left her fans verklempt.

At the Vikings stadium, Swifties were overwhelmed and overjoyed. Who can blame them?

Like Streisand, Swift, 33, doesn't miss a detail.

A snake-enveloped microphone during the "Reputation" era, a smoking chimney on the bucolic cabin for "Folklore," a moss-covered grand piano for the foresty "Evermore," and faux snowflakes falling during the lyric "I still remember the first fall of snow" for "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" from "Red (Taylor's Version)." Yep, a special effect for just one line. Details.

[...] As for Swift's singing, which was an issue earlier in her career, she avoided the vocal manipulations heard on her recordings. It was just her natural singing voice, which has grown stronger, richer and supremely confident.

[...] Swift's hyper-ambitious show was meticulously calculated (that's the way she always rolls) and studiously practiced (she's an incredibly hard worker) but still came across as fresh as cut flowers. That's because, despite all the spectacle, there was an unspoken intimacy, as if she were speaking directly to individual fans in conversation and in lyrics, addressing loneliness and heartache, offering a reassuring embrace and extending a friendship bracelet of communal belonging — a palpable connectedness.

We all want to be seen and acknowledged, and Swift does that. It's her special karma, which also happens to be the name of her current single and the night's final song.

When the Beatles redefined culture nearly 60 years ago, there were only three national TV stations in the United States. We're now in an era of countless channels, streaming services and social media platforms, yet somehow Taylor Alison Swift — who grew up on a Christmas tree farm in Pennsylvania — has achieved a once unthinkable monoculture, a zeitgeistian redux of Beatlemania — except Swiftiemania is a reaction to a strong woman, not four cute guys — for millennials, Gen Z'ers and their parents."

(the barbra reference, i love my hyperfocused breathtakingly driven detail oriented queens ;__; <3) this is a sensational review.

#this filled my heart with pride for her i'm so 😭 #i've been completely disconnected from tour and this made me feel all the things #a palpable connectedness!!! #anonymous #letterbox #taylor swift #eras tour #thrown out speeches

4 may 2023 Thursday 2:13 am pt

yesterday? Incubus stabbed something inside my body several times . I’m not sure if it was an organ. Probably was. Feels like it got completely destroyed. All day I was in pain. Sore. Difficulty breathing Bcz of it. And he’s still burning 🔥 my rib cage area too which also makes it harder to breathe 🧘🏻‍♀️. He is still eating flesh with acid. I resigned fighting on the Sierra LaMar case and the carter Ruth case and child rape in general. It seems the consensus of the powerful is that whatever heinous crimes happen to children 👶 and women are righteous. Even if it was decided a long time ago b4 conception of the human. Incubus defends that what happened to dugard as righteous, and the kidnapping and prostitution of minors is righteous. That’s why the police are allowed to get away with those crimes Bcz they are righteous. I already tried telling people more than a year ago but nothing still seems to be done ✅ about it. And I’m still given the run around at hospitals 🏥 and people in general . 2:20 am pt and treated horribly. I don’t feel well. He’s killed me already. I don’t like 👍 people for sure now. Acid throat pain 2:22 am pt. So I can’t trust demon lord with demon angels. I think everyone is corrupt Bcz of what this system is designed to do but incubus excuses it all including child rape of dugard and Ruth. He makes me think 💭 that I’m bad Bcz of a few occasions. Sometimes I believe in it. But moments b4 writing ✍️ this I suddenly don’t believe. But it doesn’t matter . Bcz he killed me. For sure he will use all his powers to lie to me. To delay the progress of the Sierra LaMar case Bcz I connect it to him in 2001. A repeat of history. That I thought 💭 he was guilty of in 2017. But I found no support in 2017/2018 to now. 2:27 am pt I’m trying to remember my addresses but it’s starting to get fuzzy. 😖😭 2:28 am pt 5585? 5855? Fuzzzy. 2:29 am pt it doesn’t matter. He’s scaring me for some reason for trying to remember the address. Gurgle hot butt 😫😩😖😭🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 he’s given me a hard time all 6 years. I think he really lied to me about being my husband. Nick carter looks like he knows I’m dying 😵. 2:31 am pt how do you know if someone is good? By their genes 🧬? Is there a good person gene? A bad person gene 🧬? Been seeing auto save green box through keyboard ⌨️. 2:32 am pt if you do things to make an enemy out of someone only Bcz you want to? Then you’re not going to get any good feeling back from them. 2:34 am pt

2:35 am pt he still gave me misleading signs today which probably was meant to insult me in actuality. He already hated me b4 the end of 2005. I am resigned to telling any more of my story Bcz it seems people wanted to hold their ground no matter what and doubt that anything I say would be true. 2:38 am pt they have chosen their king. The way that makes people born only to be miserable and sacrificed. 2:39 am pt including child rape victims. They are all hypocrites. And most likely trusted and worshipped a cano who probably engages in human s*x trafficking of minors. 2:40 am pt what makes a person a good person? Listening to demon angels? 2:41 am pt

2:43 am pt yup that’s the way the incubus wants it. He scalded my hip. Wow it doesn’t matter what you fight for. He really wants to silence all his victims of rape. Look at Shannon Ruth. You think the doctors would have found something! I’m shocked that Carter is still not in court. It’s like he’s a god. 2:45 am pt

3:09 am pt incubus won’t let me load anymore pictures including from his music videos and I can’t watch wake up call anymore with captions. 3:10 am pt

I think he’s an ugly demon angels with ugly joy. 3:11 am pt

4:06 am pt by the time I was 6 years old I think I tried not to get caught humping. So it’s trickier to catch by 6 years old.! The incubus probably made me get scared or something to get caught. I think by 5/6 years old I used my hands. 4:09 am pt

4:53 am pt I guess that’s the incubus’ big revelation: rape victims deserve to be raped including children as young as Jon benet Ramsey and Jaycee dugard. And he’s making examples out of all of us with torture and that includes Ruth, too. 4:55 am pt and they’re never going to STOP. 🎶🎼🎼🎵🎤

4:56 am pt you’re all disgusting incubus

5:50 am pt I think if you rape someone it means you are inconsiderate. = bad trait. 5:51 am pt

6:56 am pt incubus burned my skull with acid many times this morning. 6:57 am pt

7:02 am pt 7:04 am pt I don’t like incubus = wicked/evil 7:05 am pt child rapists = incubus

7:07 am pt Nick Carter’s tattoo = incubus tattoo 7:08 am pt ki in katakana. All the witnesses are probably phony. 7:09 am pt

7:10 am pt someone should arrest him and his “witnesses.” 7:11 am pt

7:17 am pt incubus attacked my vag and eyes with acid again.

9:48 pmpt even though everyone else got more air conditioning than me, it don’t mean that they didn’t experience heat/hot weather like I did. 9:49 pmpt my sister went to the Philippines, too. 9:50 pmpt

10:01 pmpt when I saw Scott again in 2010 he showed me drawings he did if a building. And (searing stinging hot pain vag 10:02 pmpt) I think in a different day in 2010 he said he was thinking of transferring to UCB. I don’t recall if he said for what program/major. But Bcz I thought UCB was weird, which I didn’t say out loud - ran into people who played mind games/gaslighting us in first encounters, I suggested he go to (acid head pain brain 🧠 10:06 pmpt) uc Santa Cruz . Bcz when I look at him I think trees. On his Instagram you will see a picture of a mountain? With trees? Not that it matters. But I went to college for 6 years, and I didn’t think I ever ran into him at community college even though Jessica and Q went there too. 10:09 pmpt

Meet The Family

Time to meet the family!

So I just realized that I haven’t properly introduced you all to my animals! Wow I can’t believe myself! Anyways today You guys will all get to meet my children! I’m so excited!

We’re going to do this in the youngest to oldest order, so we’ll be starting with my newest addition which if you read “The Real Of May” or you’re on any of my socials you have seen him and know his name but either way lets get into it!

Bellamy Sage Shadow Hunter

This is Bellamy, I found him the day before Mother's day. We aren’t one hundred percent on his age but are pretty sure he’s 5-6 weeks old. He has a particular fire in his bones that matches the fire all the others have. His full name (though it has taken me almost three weeks to finally come to this final determination) is Bellamy Sage Shadow Hunter Isaacs. He is very much obsessed with his older brother Jonah, following him around as though he is imitating him while being guarded by our oldest cat (our family cat) Milly. Bellamy has been accepted into the family by most of his siblings.

Roscoe (Rocky) River

Rocky though he is the biggest he is the second youngest. His birthday October 11,2019, he is almost two years old. A blue heeler, Pitbull mix, most definitely my most wild child. He loves passing the time by taking naps, doing security checks around the house and yard, hearding the cats and driving them insane by trying to be their friend and playing with trees. Rocky also likes brushing his teeth every night with a dental treat. He would get along better with his feline siblings if he didn’t always try to chew their fleas and play with them but that’s the life of a guard dog, right?

Molly Joe Perseus Jackson

Molly being my most cooperative when it comes to photographs is my model and the blogs mascot, her birthday is February 17th, 2018. She is three years old and the third youngest. She is partially named after Percy Jackson because I just finished that series, but she's also partially named after a Wattpad book Perseus’ Human Mate weird I know but I also just loved the name and how it gave off such a power trip and from the beginning I knew she was a queen. Which she holds up to the power trip because she is definitely one of my meanest children! Such a beautiful girl but so powerful I always knew she had it in her.

Skitzerlynn

Now this one technically not supposed to be mine. The first year or so of Skitz living with us she wasn’t my daughter but my old roommates and well uh I’m honestly not sure how it happened, but this girl woke up and decided “you're my mom now”. Completely unexpected and honorable. So, she was already family to mine, but she just made herself at home claiming her space and her mom to her new adopted siblings. Skitzerlynns birthday is April 1st,2016. At five years old Lynn is my fourth youngest.

Jonah Bug

Bug Eyes is my third eldest, my pride and joy. I had to civilize Jonah I don’t like saying tame makes me feel like I broke his spirit or something. Anyway, Jonah is a very special cat in a lot of ways, but he is generally a great older brother, and you can always find him laying with one of his siblings. Being a May baby; May 19, 2013. He is 8 years old now and still the same handsome boy I fell in love with eight years ago.

Bobo Rockie

Though we had to say goodbye to him unexpectedly in 2019, Bo was my second eldest and my other k9 baby. He was a very goofy dog and loved bottles and naps. November 7,2011 was his birthday meaning that this year he would have been 10.

Jazzy Jackson (Kittenkat)

October 7,2011. Jazzy is my oldest. Jaz has a very particular way of life, he is the king, he kinda has a milk addiction and he very much gets impatient with his siblings. Though he much like Jonah can be found cuddling with any of his siblings except Rocky as those two really do struggle to get along. You can most definitely tell Jazzy is prepping to be a grumpy old man!

DEAN TV LOVE VII: EPISODE 10: DEAN TV LOVE U.S.A

Hello and welcome to episode 10 of Dean Tv love 7. On the 17th of March 2023, Friday. 35 episodes left in the 7th season. As the tenth episode starts off by the Dean Tv announcer introducing Dean Tv love to the viewers, the title sequence starts off by showing the dean Tv love logo with seven appearing. The 3 presenters coming out of the Louise cafe with Dean joining. “Good morning everyone, episode 10 is here” said Alec. “Episode 10 already?, wow we are moving fast” said Kaden. “Yes this is episode 10 or episode 308 according to my Calculator” said Zara. “That’s right” said Dean. “This is the 308th episode”. The screen shows the number 308, the audience are surprised about it. “Today’s episode is titled Dean Tv love U.S.A which is a U.S. version of Dean Tv love” said Alec. “Really!?, I did not know that” said Kaden. “I know about it” said Dean. “You do?” Asked Kaden. Dean nodded. “The U.s.a version started back in 2018 during the 2nd season of the U.K. version” said Dean. The guru appeared on the screen. “Yes of course, the U.S. version started 5 years ago, on the 25th of January 2018 Thursday  “ said the guru. This is how the U.S. version starts off. Stage 1 era: (2018-2020) Season 1 (2018) Season 2 (2019) Season 3 (2020) Stage 2 era: (2020-2022) Season 4 (2021) Season 5 (2022) Stage 3 era: (2022-present) Season 6 (2023).

“Wow similar to the U.K. version but different” said Alec. “Yeah so let’s watch one episode of the U.S.” said Zara. They all watch the U.S. version of Dean Tv love. Titled Dean Tv love U.S.a 6/Dean Tv love U.S.A Vi or the American Tv love. The U.S. version take place in New York City, Brooklyn. The main character Benjamin (the American counter part of Dean) is living with his friend Adalynn (the American counter part of Louise) in a flat. Adalynn has a cat in this version who talks (just like the puppy in the U.K.) Ben and Adalynn are the same age, both born on the 8th month and born in the year. Ben was born on the 7th of august 1990 and Adalynn born on the 6th of August 1990. The two met at a party in Manhattan back in 2017, on the 2nd of August 2017. Similar to their U.K. counter parts. Ben is playing music and dancing, Adalynn’s cat sees him dancing. “Hey Adalynn Ben is dancing again” said the cat. Adalynn smiled. “Yeah I know, does that every time” said Adalynn while she is in the kitchen putting some clothes in the dryer. Adalynn is watching Tv, watching U.K. version of Dean Tv love. Seeing Dean and Louise talking. Till one day the tv show got interrupted by a strange person wearing a mask. Adalynn started to get annoyed about it. She called Ben but ben is too busy dancing to his favourite. Adalynn ran out of the kitchen. “Ben come here, the tv channel has been interrupted by a crazy guy with mask” she said. “A crazy person” said Ben as he rushes into the kitchen. Ben sees what he sees on Tv. So Ben transformed into a superhero. He went out to find to crazy guy with the mask. He has found the location. He went to stop the guy with the mask. “Hey you stop interrupting tv broadcasting” said Ben. The man with the mask gets arrested by the cops, ben returns back to the apartment to rejoin Adalynn and the cat. “You taught that guy a lesson” said Adalynn. “Yes I did” said Ben. The episode ends and everyone clapped. “Interesting” said Zara. “Yeah the U.S. is different from its u.k. counter part” said Alec. “Is the u.s. still going?” Asked Kaden. “Yes it is and they are celebrating its 5th anniversary” said Dean. “Yes they are” said the guru. “Well that’s episode 10, next stop episode 11 next week” said Alec. They all waved bye. Then the end credits with theme music.

End of episode 10

queer identity crisis

okay so, in about 2015 i started dating a girl (context: i had previously been interested in a couple guys before that). granted, it didn't last more than a couple months, but i had this whole "i'm gay, i'm bi etc...." thing. i'm autistic, so nothing I do or say gets taken seriously by anyone, so my family did what any heteronormative family does and did the whole "it's just a phase" thing. in 2017 i dated another girl for more months, which was okay but i never *felt* anything, if you know what i mean. she was also a massive bitch and low key narcissistic. at that time, i was like, demisexual?? it was so long ago so i don't really remember my feelings about asexuality. from 2018-2020, i was very single and no sexual desire, although i thought i had crushes on a few girls and guys (this was also pre gender crisis). in january 2021, I started dating a guy who was surely gay and gender questioning. me being a cis girl at that stage with decreasing faith in dating men or dating at all, we decided to date anyway (bad idea). he is also a narcissist and broke up with me with literally no context and never actually told me the reason. so that was May 2021, during lockdowns. that's when i had the gender crisis and i was full agender non binary during this whole next part. fast forward to october 2021, i started dating another guy, which was arguably another mistake. that lasted until july 2022. in terms of *feelings*, occasionally i would feel a slight twinkle, but i had to do everything myself (don't ask). i'd like to blame the aforementioned 2 guys on shitty desperation from lockdowns and shit. at this point, i was identifying as 'queer'. from july 2022 - november/december 2022, i went through a whole "i'm full asexual aromantic" or maybe grey-ace and i researched the whole thing. i had no interest in anything or anyone. i really thought i would be in dry relationships my whole life, where i would feel nothing/not much and just be pleasuring the other person. i also thought i was at least queer. but then I met my current boyfriend (december 2022) and WOW suddenly i have a sex drive and i actually get turned on. i have felt more with him in the last 3 months than i have with anyone else ever. last night...shit i feel alive now. so now i'm acknowledging that this is my 3rd hetero relationship in a row, and i'm happily sexually active. am i still queer? i haven't had any interest in girls in like 6 years. i also was thinking that my sexuality is a case by case thing. like, i would be willing to date/have sex with any gender, but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. so now i guess i'm demisexual omniromantic (preferring men?), but i've always thought that too many labels sounds pretentious, so maybe i'm just 'queer' or just me.

THE GENDER CRISIS: as was mentioned before, i have as non binary since june 2021. when I met my current boyfriend and started dating properly, i started feeling more femme. so now i use they/she pronouns because 'she' feels fine but i still reject the idea of the gender binary. i like being sexy in a feminine way for my boyfriend. he makes me feel sexy.
