t3.9 ⟨ born filipino raised swagapino ⟩ 👨‍🚒 < re: o’malley, smee

The look Chuck gives O’Malley is just. So exhausted. You might even compare it to an expression worn by Romantic poet Lord George Gordon Byron who, after spending a long and arduous trip with his physician, John Polidori, was so tired he felt he'd aged several years.

"Ignoring the fact that apparently you can't do simple subfraction, can you at least explain how, if Dola was fuckin' ambushed, her clip got to the balcony? Why wouldn't they just leave her in the elevator then, like what's the point of throwing her in there and dragging her back out?"

There’s something funny about the way he’s said ‘subtraction’ just now.

"And another thing, genius, if she was thrown in there, who called the elevator? You get what I'm saying? She walks to the balcony, the elevator doors close, there's a problem. She doesn't step out, but her hair clip ends up all the way on the balcony, there's a problem. Make it make sense!"

He’s just about ready to settle down when Smee ...  It’s no surprise that at this point he feels a little picked on by Smee (as if he’s allowed to complain given his behavior this entire time which practically screamed, moreso than usual, ‘LOOK DIRECTLY AT ME!’)

“Okay? It’s ‘cause I grew up with nothing!”

He doesn’t say this like he’s proud of it.

“But whatever, ain't like that now. I mean, I still don't make a lot of money, but my sister? She's a fuckin' doctor. And she's a big fuckin' deal. Like, you know what she does, right? Ain't normal doctor shit. Her tattoos can fix up back problems. Carpal tunnel. Strengthen immune systems. It’s weird shit and I dunno how it works, but compared to hers my salary may as well be fuckin’ peanuts!”

This, he says, with a note of pride. A little ironic, considering... well, anyway he’s still talking-

"So what if the rat drains out the last 3000 yen in my bank account? That's not even close to chump change for sis. And if the rat starts dipping into her account? Bank'll handle it."

Get a bank with anti-Prix protection <3

“So no, I don’t give a fuck about the motive. Hell, come to think, Dola’s the type that probably fuckin’ would. You think someone would’ve said it by now!”

Very deliberately he avoids looking at her chair as he says this, like he sensed the energy emanating from it earlier.

Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Dkt Hamisi Kigwangalla akizungumza bungeni alipokuwa akijibu hoja wa wabunge waliochangia mjadala wa bajeti wa kupitisha makadirio ya mapato na matumizi ya wizara yake kwa mwaka wa fedha 2018/2019, jijini Dodoma juzi. ............................................................ Wizara ya Maliasili na Utalii imetangaza kuanza mchakato wa kuyapandisha hadhi Mapori ya Akiba ya Burigi, Kimisi, Biharamulo, Ibanda na Rumanyika kuwa Hifadhi za Taifa. Mchakato huo tayari umeungwa mkono na Mhe. Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania, Mhe. Dkt. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli. Hayo yameelezwa juzi bungeni Jijini Dodoma na Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Dkt. Hamisi Kigwangalla wakati akihitimisha mjadala wa bajeti wa makadirio ya mapato na matumizi ya wizara yake kwa mwaka wa fedha 2018/2019. “Mheshimiwa Spika, ninaomba kulitaarifu Bunge lako tukufu kuwa  Mhe. Rais ameridhia ombi letu la kupandisha hadhi Mapori ya Akiba ya Burigi, Kimisi, Biharamulo, Ibanda na Chief Rumanyika kuwa Hifadhi za Taifa, kipekee namshukuru sana Mhe. Rais kwa kuridhia ombi letu hilo” amesema Dkt. Kigwangalla. Amesema kufuatia hatua hiyo, wizara yake inaanzisha mchakato rasmi wa kukamilisha taratibu  za kupandisha hadhi mapori hayo ili kupanua wigo wa vivutio vya utalii katika kanda ya Kaskazini Magharibi na hivyo kufikia azma ya Serikali kuongeza idadi ya watalii kufikia milioni 8 na mapato ya dola za kimarekani bilioni 16 katika kipindi cha miaka 7 ijayo. Inaelezwa kuwa mchakato huo utapitia hatua mbalimbali ikiwemo kuwashirikisha wadau husika kupata maoni yao, mapendekezo kuwasilishwa baraza la mawaziri kabla ya kujadiliwa bungeni na hatimaye kuwasilishwa kwa Mhe. Rais kwa ajili ya kuidhinishwa kuwa Sheria kamili ya kupandisha hadhi mapori hayo. Akizungumzia mikakati mingine mipya ya kuboresha sekta ya maliasili na utalii itakayotekelezwa, Dkt. Kigwangalla amesema ni pamoja na kuanzisha mamlaka ya usimamizi na uendelezaji wa utalii wa fukwe nchini, kuhuisha maeneo ya vivutio vya Mambo ya Kale na kuviunganisha katika 'package' moja ya utalii na vivutio vya wanyamapori. Mikakati mingine ni kuunda mfumo mmoja funganishi wa TEHAMA uitwao "MNRT Portal" kwa ajili ya kutoa leseni na vibali, ukusanyaji wa takwimu na mapato kutoka vyanzo mbalimbali vya sekta ya maliasili na utalii, ambapo utaunganishwa na mifumo mingine ya Serikali iliwemo GePG, NIDA, TIRA, BRELA, TRA na NBS. Amesema mikakati mingine ni kuanzisha Jeshi Usu, Utambulisho wa Utalii wa Tanzania Kimataifa ujulikanao kama "Tanzania, Unforgettable", kufungua utalii wa kanda ya kusini, kuanzisha mwezi wa maadhimisho ya Urithi wa Mtanzania "Urithi Festival"  (Septemba), kuhuisha sheria za TANAPA, TAWA na TFS, pamoja na kuunda kanuni mpya za kusimamia vizuri sekta hizo. Pori la Akiba Burigi lina ukubwa wa kilomita za mraba 2,941 katika wilaya za Karagwe, Muleba na Ngara mkoani Kagera, wakati Pori la Kimisi likiwa na ukubwa wa kilomita za mraba 1,030 katika wilaya za Ngara na Karagwe mkoani humo. Pori la Akiba Biharamulo lina ukubwa wa kilomita za mraba 731 katika wilaya ya Muleba mkoani Kagera na wilaya ya Chato mkoani Geita, huku Pori la Akiba Ibanda likiwa na ukubwa wa kilomita za mraba 200 na Pori la Akiba Rumanyika kilomita za mraba 800 katika wilaya ya Kyerwa mkoani Kagera.Mapori haya yapo katika ukanda muhimu wa kuunganisha watalii kutoka ikolojia za Magharibi na Mashariki ambapo uwanja wa ndege wa Chato utakuwa muhimu katika kutoa mawasiliano. Mapori hayo ambayo yanasimamiwa na Mamlaka ya Usimamizi wa Wanyamapori Tanzania - TAWA sasa yatakuwa chini ya Shirika la Hifadhi za Taifa Tanzania - TANAPA punde baada ya mchakato wa kuyapandisha hadhi kukamilika.  Bunge limeidhinisha Sh. bilioni 115.794 kwa ajili ya makadirio ya mapato na matumizi ya Wizara ya Maliasili na Utalii kwa mwaka wa fedha 2018/2019 ambapo Sh. bilioni 85.816 ni kwa ajili ya Matumizi ya Kawaida na Sh. bilioni 29,978 ni kwa ajili ya miradi ya maendeleo.    Naibu Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Japhet Hasunga akizungumza bungeni alipokuwa akijibu hoja wa wabunge waliochangia mjadala wa bajeti wa kupitisha makadirio ya mapato na matumizi ya wizara yake kwa mwaka wa fedha 2018/2019, jijini Dodoma juzi.  Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Dkt Hamisi Kigwangalla na Naibu Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Japhet Hasunga wakipongezwa na wabunge mbalimbali baada ya bajeti ya wizara yao kupitishwa na Bunge juzi jioni.

Song of the Week

I’ve now been on top of this for like 3 weeks. And I am here for this.

Honorable Mentions:

When I saw that a member of Ladies Code had put out a pair of singles, I was expecting them to be good. I was hoping to not have ballads, and Crystal Clear sort of isn’t. I would definitely not classify the backing track as a ballad, more on the EDM side of things. Stay Here fits into that same almost ballad category, with the same EDM style backing track. Both songs are pretty and emotional, and showcase some very nice vocals.

I like J Hope’s Airplane better than Daydream, but again I’m not a huge fan of the style. 

I love the intro of Marmello’s Wake Me Up. But then it sounds like it was mixed by a beginner. The vocals are so huge in the mix, and the whole rest of the track sounds like it was recorded from an 90s movie and never remastered. Even if it was a conscious choice, I don’t like it.

My love for various members of Wanna One is not quite enough to make me love I.P.U. It is an EDM track that feels like it has been done a bunch of times (often much better), specifically over the course of last summer. The chorus isn’t even that bad, I just . . . cannot bring myself to want to listen to it ever again.

Though his new song has a completely different tone from the last one I heard, the vocals on George’s Swimming Pool are just as impressive as those on Boat. Boat was great for how fun it was. Swimming Pool is great for how it merges calm with sadness so effectively. Also, the fact that the only person I know who sounds vocally anything like this is G.Soul is a huge compliment to how good George sounds.

As a soon to be graduated math major, I get a lot of joy out of Hyungdon and Daejune’s The King of Math. If only because I didn’t even know all of the identities they did, and the ones I did know where right.

It seems that Mamamoo’s new music video was shot at the same place as Taeyeon’s I, what with the sweeping views of grasslands next to the ocean with sheep everywhere. Or maybe just one nearby. I really want to like Starry Night, but the chorus just bores me, and the verse does nothing to keep my attention. The video may be beautifully shot, but all of the saturation is all over the place, and after a while looks like the director couldn’t choose one color scheme or style to land on, so he did all of them.

I’ve been loving the whole Western guitar riff thing that has hit K-pop in the last 6 months or so. From the flamenco guitar from SF9′s O Sole Mio and BoA’s Nega Dola, to the almost bluegrass (it was the closest I could get stylistically to what I was hearing) of Lee Hyori’s Black and the backing riff of Jung Ilhoon’s She’s Gone. Maybe a rock bluegrass, or country bluegrass might be more accurate. But that specific sound is one I love, and I really like it in a pop context. The rest of Ilhoon’s track is sadly a bit underwhelming for me.

My winner this week is the second win for a young duo who impressed me last tie they won with a song that I normally would hate, but I was so endeared by that I couldn’t help falling in love. Space Travel is a different genre from the previous track, but it still has the impressive harmonies I have come to expect from monogram, who have more talent in their pinky finger vocally than I will have at any point in my life. They sound adorable, and their voices both fit together and with the song so well. I especially appreciate the variety they have in their rhythms in the vocal line, which adds so much interest without very much effort. It is a song that leaves you with a smile on your lips, and a lighter heart than before you heard it.

mm 2.4 | chirin | applebee's commercial is on tv rn :) | re: knuckles, campion, o’malley

Chirin’s heart – or where it once was?  She’d never figured out how anything like that worked, and the news about their situation didn’t actually help matters any – swells in something like pride when Dola speaks.  She sounds almost optimistic, and if the room weren’t practically begging for any light at all–

(Well, except for Chuck’s cigarette lights.  They had those covered.)

–she might have teased her for it.  Instead, she tries to stand straighter for her, forcing her eyes not to glaze over, blinking even when the conversation becomes too hard for her to follow.

(She wishes she had the foresight to bring her pain-relief salve.  Chuck looks like he could use some.)

Knuckles pulls her from her thoughts when she touches on something they’d spoken about before, and so she nods.

“Yeah.  People have ways of bringin’ back dead things, but.  …Yeah.  Even magic doesn’t make it easy.”

Her eyes behave themselves, carefully brushing over the room without catching.

“Even plants need time to come back into their own after you bring ‘em back.  …But.  Well.  S’pose all that doesn’t matter.  Most people’d love to cheat death, I think.  Figure they’ll handle stuff as it comes.”  She considers ‘acting weird’ as a concept; her answer comes immediately.  “Sure.  But how do you mean.  Actin’ weird when folks die is normal, after all.  Can say for sure a handful of you were real quick to tell me you’d find a way to, uh, bring me back.  Thought it… mm, sweet, right, but bold.  None of you struck me as necromancers.”

But whether she thinks it to be wishful thinking, platitudes, or indicative of something more, she doesn’t say.

She falls quiet, finding herself nodding along as Campion speaks.  It’s such a slight motion, but her ridiculous jewelry clanging gives away that she’s doing it.  It turns into a larger nod when O’Malley confirms what happened to Chuck to himself, her mouth pulling in a slight line.  What happened to him before had looked scary to go through… she hopes he doesn’t overstress again.

“No Georges or Orwells,” a beat.  “Or Winstons or Julias, for that matter.  …Ahaha.”

She laughs like she’s being funny, but the real joke is the idea that she reads–

“…S’pose Shug may have just found some… uh… weird science way,” her hand literally waves, “…to use the stuff Prix does?  Maybe without havin’ to really stay put in, uh… the afterlife?  Y’know, like,” she points at the now-cracked board, gesturing to the same word Campion had.  “…like a parasite.  …Think that’s a bit of a rude word, though.”

She watches Lucita’s trek around the room, raising no objections when she and Chuck start to ask Dawson about the motivations at play there.  

(…But her hand does come up to touch at her nose bridge, laughing a little sheepishly when Chuck exposes her for caring–)

And she listens, like always.  Her eyes slide from Knuckles to Dawson, her hands going to futz with her rings again at some point.  With her head tilted just to the side, she looks almost comically attentive.  She hums in agreement at loopholes, but most of it… it’s all something she can’t fit together right.  She’s quiet as she tries.

“…Think Piony’s right,” she says finally, after leaving time for Dawson’s words to sit.  “We’re bound to talk ourselves in circles, just sayin’ people we think it could ‘n couldn’t be.  Folks lie, good liars who hold meetings with other liars got stories cooked up, and… well.  Think anyone could do it.  Folks do all kinds of shit they normally wouldn’t if they hear the right thing at the right time.  ‘S just how it is.”

Her expression is difficult to read.

“Prix said we didn’t have to know why they did it all.  Just names.  So.  Sorta wanna think on that place some,” she gestures vaguely to Smee’s phone, “…Tanya, you said somethin’ about rooms with labels?  Sounds weird.  What’s the story there, then.”
