So allegedly the pro-Palestine/antisemitic Lefty crowd stormed the US Capitol today after Rashida Tlaib gave a speech in support of Palestine. People are using the term "insurrection", understandably so.
My thoughts: If true, this was as much an "insurrection" as the January 6 nonsense was, I.E. they were huge nothingburger events. I'm not gonna pretend like I didn't just spend the last few years complaining about the over-exaggeration of what happened on Jan. 6 only to turn around and over-exaggerate the same nonsense just because the other side did it.
That being said, if we're still in the business of punishing everyone involved in Jan 6, including Donald Trump, then it is completely inarguable that everyone involved in this event, including Rashida Tlaib, should also be punished if this is true.
Quite frankly, as much as I hate both groups, neither should be punished for what ultimately amounts to fuck all, but if we're going to punish one side for it then we have to punish the other side too.

Kloktober, Day 18: Inspired by a metal song - in this case, "Sleipnir" by Brothers of Metal:
Loki, the greatest magician of all
He's on a mission, a giant to stall
He seduces, disguised as a mare
And carries out Sleipnir, his womb he would tear
He's quicker then quicksand and faster than all
He still has no stable, he lives in a hall
Over the mountains and over the seas
Swifter than time, he moves like a breeze
Faster than lightning he rides
Over the mountain so high
Swiftly he flies over land, over sea
Allfather's pony takes the lead
For he is the ultimate breed
And Sleipnir is his name
He carries Allfather from his mighty hall
From battle to battle, he's stronger than all
Like the wind he rides to the north
Eight legs of fire venturing forth
A slippery charger, no one is his match
A god among horses - he strikes an attack
Hooves made of steel, like war drums so loud
Run Sleipnir, run, show us the meaning of haste!

Dinofact #55
Achillobator, a dromaeosaurid, differs from other dromaeosaurs like Velociraptor in that it appears to be built for strength, rather than speed. While most dromaeosaurids have lightweight bodies, but Achillobator has a robust, skeleton with stocky hindlimbs and a more vertically oriented pubis. These traits suggest a lifestyle of hunting large prey, as opppsed to the speedy build of most other dromaeosaurs.

So my sister and I have this running joke.
Basically, every important event in our stories / fanfics / AUs happens on October 18th. This goes from birthdays to the explosion of the time machine in Unwound Future. Generally speaking, it’s just a crazy day for our OCs and favourite characters.
Today is October 18th.
Workers in our hometown just found A WORLD WAR II BOMB on a construction site.
