Love (cannot emphasis how much sarcasm there is in that word) that an official Canadian government response to high cellphone rates is to switch carriers.

Switch it to what? We basically have three companies since one was allowed to eat the forth (with the government saying it wasn't anti-competition and the company eating the other pinky promising they wouldn't jack rates up). Even the smaller companies have to rent infrastructure from the Big Three so there's only so much they can do if that rent costs an arm and a leg.

And that's not touching on how many "small companies" are actually just subsidiaries of the Big Three. You may save $5 but you're still with Telus/Rogers/Bell.

Or that the actual small companies tend to have shit coverage because they don't have the infrastructure available to them and are prevented from getting it. Or their traffic is throttled in favour of the Big Three's customers. Or both.

Or that they're extremely regional thus aren't an option for a huge chunk of Canada's population.

We have no true options and the government has shown time and again that they're fine with monopolies, in multiple industries, and don't care when said monopolies jack up prices to make shareholders and the c-suite more money at the expense of everyone else. At most there will be a verbal slap on the wrist and a giftcard for $25 that people have to register for, for a decade and a half of price gouging.

It's not talked a whole lot about outside the country from what I've seen and heard but Canada is a country of monopolies. A handful of companies own nearly everything, every province has a family or two that owns a hell of a lot (Nova Scotia is basically owned by one family at this point), and our government ignores it. Even the branch that is supposed to be against monopolies is fine with mergers and takeovers in most cases.

Because, you know, the company said it totally wouldn't use consumers' lack of options to increase prices.

#canada #so much of our infrastructure and critical construction such as housing #has been pawned off for decades to private companies #and i forgot to mention one (1) family owns the bridge that is a major international corridor between canada and the us #which is apparently fine even though they fought tooth and nail to stop a bridge they don't own from being built #like our housing crisis can be traced back to the government deciding to stop building public housing in the 90s #because they figured private developers would pick up the slack #affordable apartments don't bring in much money so we got decades of cheap-ass 'luxury condos' instead #and once airbnb became a thing we got entire buildings with units <300sqft #and of course when the party in charge rotates between conservatives and neolibs nothing changes and that can gets kicked down the road #and keeps getting kicked until something collapses and they see the chance to fully privatize an industry #something similar is happening to our healthcare system too #it has been left to languish for years/decades with funding freezes and cuts #and private companies are quick to jump in and get the government stamp of approval to do [thing] that the public system clearly can't do #when [thing] would absolutely be possible if it was actually funded and/or staffed #so many communities were cut off when greyhound closed up shop because there's no government inter-city transportation #we lost internet/banking/cell service/etc nation-wide because one of the big three decided to push an update to live without redundancies #and it bugged and took the entire company's network down #even the government agency that demands major companies have a backup on a different network was taken down because they ignored that #and they got a deal if they kept their backup with rogers while their main network was also rogers #so they couldn't even make an emergency statement or anything about it #half my province also lost all digital infrastructure because it's a private company and making a redundancy line would mean smaller bonuse #it's just so bad #joke all you want about how canada is nice and friendly #but you are wrong and it's hell if you actually live here #the only reason canada is seen as nice is because it's hard to not seem like the better option when the us is your neighbour #and because of decades of pr work to make canada seem friendly and nice and not at all problematic #in some countries you actually have to try to hide you're canadian because of how much we colonize and the damage we do to other countries #yes these tags have derailed from the post but ugh #i take major issue with people who insist canada is nice and has never done anything wrong

Even if you don't agree with incarcerated people having access to education, monetary compensation for work, or whatever, I really hope you acknowledge that so long as you provide the state incentive to imprison people (free labour or whatever it may be), the state will continuously imprison people - especially for non-violent crime.

#politics #ask to tag (genuine) #same with the death penalty #like you can think certain people deserve to die for the henious crimes they've committed but that power should *not* belong to the state #see also: expanding the definition of crime that USian politicians are wont to do #like you see people desperate to expand what is a crime - such as providing trans healthcare #like yes this is a complex issue but also... i just can't get behind the state having that ability #i do not trust that there will not be overreach because see: the united states' LONG history of overreach to an *excessive* extent #this is very much in the context of being an american but also i believe this regardless of that context #(it's just that american politics quickly changed my tune) #(like i used to be pretty pro-death penalty until i actually started thinking about it and started actually being realistic about it) #(because yes maybe some people deserve that outcome for their actions. but the US has proven it CANNOT handle that power) #(you don't have to look that far into the history of the death penalty to realize how egregious it gets)

“The Other Side” (Touchstarved OC Rewrite)

So I made a parody of "The Other Side" from The Greatest Showman with my Touchstarved Hound OC, Alon. Here, she's trying to partner up with Mhin to — as thieves are wont to do — pull off a Senobium caper, but it takes a bit of back and forth with someone who's so used to being on their own.

Alon: Right here, right now, I put the offer out. I don't wanna chase you down but I know you see it. We form a team and we will find the key To all the answers we both know we’re seekin'. So trade that tragical for somethin' magical (Mhin: Tragical’s not a word.) And if it's crazy, live a little crazy! You can try the same old schtick and hope that something finally clicks. Or change the game and schtick with me…

Alon: Don't you wanna get away From this Lowtown part you gotta play? Then I got what you need, so come with me, we’ll pull a heist! It’ll take you to the other side! 'Cause you can do like you do or you can run with me. Stay in the dark or you finally take a leap. Oh, damn! Suddenly you're free to fly! We’ll get us to the other side!

Mhin: Okay, my friend, you want to count me in. Well, I hate to tell you but it just won't happen. So thanks, but no. I think I'm good to go. ‘Cause I quite like the dark you say I'm trapped in. I’ll say it’s bold of you, this crazy plot you brewed. That nerve is something, really, it's something. But I work best alone, and your plan sounds like a joke at most — We can’t afford to play the fools.

Mhin: Don't you know that I'm okay With this Lowtown part I have to play? 'Cause I take what I need and I don't need a ride-or-die. I will take myself to the other side. So go and do as you do. Run off and leave me be. No need for change, you can go on and keep your key. Oh, damn, can't you see I'm doing fine? I don’t need your help to save my life.

Alon: Now is this really how you plan to get past those gates? ‘Nother vine, ‘nother try to carry all of the weight? Mhin: If I join up with you, Someone is bound to get hurt. We could die, be confined, try choosing which one is worse!

Alon: Or we could finally win a little, finally breathe a little. We could take back our freedom to dream And it’ll clear a path to cure our achin'. Take our curses, start 'em breakin'. Now that's a change that seems worth embracin’! But I guess I'll leave that up to you…?

Mhin: …Fine, you’ve intrigued me, but my services are costly. So how much actual coin would you be offering? Alon: Fair enough, you want insurance for the action. Seven gold, come on, let’s shake and make it happen! Mhin: I wasn't born this morning, eighteen would be just fine. Alon: Ack! Why not just ditch the heist and try to bribe your way inside? Mhin: Fifteen. Alon: I'd do eight! Mhin: Twelve. Alon: Maybe nine. Mhin: Ten.

Both: Don't you wanna get away To a whole new part you're gonna play? Then I got what you need, so come with me, we’ll take the ride To the other side! So you can do like you do or you can run with me. Forget the gates 'cause we’re going to take the leap! Oh, damn, suddenly we're free to fly. We're going to the other side!

Mhin: So if you do like I do (Alon: To the other side) So if you do like me (Alon: We're goin' to the other side) Both: 'Cause if we do, we're going to the other side. We're going to the other side!

#touchstarved #touchstarved game #touchstarved vn #touchstarved mhin #touchstarved oc #alon the hound #mhin x alon #alon x mhin #the greatest showman #songwriting is not my strength XD #but I tried to change the lyrics to fit them #alon uses 'we' a lot right away because she wants to team up with mhin #they want mhin to know that they're on the same side and that partnering up can help them both achieve what they're looking for #and I guess alon also already sees them as two peas in a pod #both of them being newcomers to Eridia #both of them haunted by some sort of affliction that has pushed them toward the senobium as their last hope #and both of them being — deep down — very lonely #mhin on the other hand doesn’t use ‘we’ very often because they’re trying to keep distant #unlike alon they don't see the two of them as a unit and they are trying to avoid that at all costs #so each ‘we’ is a reveal of sorts that they HAVE considered what would happen if they teamed up with alon #or worse — befriended them #and as mhin believes nothing good comes from letting people in #they also use the word 'run' differently #alon being the friendly and outgoing charmer she is uses it in a way that's almost like extending a hand to a new friend #“run with me buddy! we're gonna have tons of fun together I can already tell!” #and mhin uses the word in the traditional sense — again to distance themselves #“run away. don't come any closer to me.” #I kept the “take a leap” and “free to fly” parts because mhin's shadow form resembles a bird #I wanted the image of them flying over their walls and obstacles together

[idiosyncraticrednebula]

Ngl, if Tiana doesn't wield a firearm in some way in her new series, I'm gonna be so disappointed. Firearms were already very legal and commonly used in the States by the mid-late 1920s (which is when TPATF mostly takes place), so I'd like to see her sport it at least once. She'd be the first Disney Princess to canonically wield a gun/firearm. They seriously need to make that happen. Also, why doesn't fanart of her wielding a firearm exist????

#tiana #disney #the tiana series #i hc tiana as a pro-gun person like honestly. she would only use it when she REALLY needs it to tho. that'd be her whole thing #you can't tell me she doesn't have a firearm hidden in the kitchen in case someone breaks in. i see tiana as THAT type #she wouldn't really shoot but at least intimidate the intruder #i mean she used louie to f*cking scare the racist businessmen into giving her the damn key to the territory #don't think for one second she wouldn't wield a firearm to scare someone away #“why are you hc'ing tiana as pro-gun” my brother in christ this was the united states in the '20s #the us has always been known for its VERY pro-gun stance #also given the era she grew up in (jim crow) that woulda been very useful anyways #tiana is badass like that #crazy to think she is the only princess who possibly lived till the 21st century #she was born in 1907 as she was 19 in 1926. that sh*t is incredible tbh #disney will never ever show that but man it makes you think like damn she really saw ALL of the social change #i know she isn't real #i get that part but i'm sorry dp's are the most important characters to me so it blows my mind that she possibly lived till the 21st centur #it's crazy but cool #“you are glorifying gun violence. that's horrible” no sister i'm just talking about how cool and badass it'd be for a disneh princess to #wield a gun. they've wielded swords and bows before (mulan ariel [in the sequel for a brief moment] rapunzel probably MERIDA moana quite #possibly RAYA) so why is a gun any different? also that's a whole another vibe tbh #naveen is the one that would be like “WAIT WAIT WHY ARE YOU HOLDING THAT THING???” dude is probably a gun HATER #i can tell it. “i don't understand you americans's obsession with guns!!!! seriously!” and tiana is like oh poor bby lmaooo #jasmine did too in the series!! these b*tches are no stranger to WEAPONS lmao

[littledashdraws]

Here’s a concept I thought I’d pick your brain over:

Ascended versions of the Askr trio.

Basically Alts for the trio for what they would look like if they could promote their classes.

I feel like there’s a 50/50 chance on whether or not Feh will ever do this.

Some ideas I had included Sharena getting to ride a Pegasus while Anna becomes an Armored unit.

Idk, I’ve got brainworms.

i would love to see ascended alts of the ask trio! i'll be honest and say that i have no expectations that FEH will do this. the biggest reason is that FEH ascended forms have all been based on the power of gods, and the most likely god to ascend the askr trio is no longer alive in the story. i also i think it's a lot easier to "update" the story version of a character like fjorm (who doesn't reappear every book) or veronica (who appears frequently, but whose original, non-ascended form we never got as a unit). HAVING SAID THAT, intsys does whatever it wants. i've been wrong before, and i'd be happy to be wrong about this

i think your suggestion of askr trio ascendants serving as class promotions (more in line with the non-FEH ascendants) is a really fun idea! i definitely agree with sharena getting a pegasus -- askr FEELS like it should have flying units as part of the army, and i'm always flabbergasted when i remember that they're more cavalry based. i would love to see one of the royal siblings wield a tome as a nod to their mother. or, hear me out, Dragon Henriette Theory gets confirmed as real, and we get one of the askran siblings using a dragonsto(i am dragged offstage)

#i guess the only other gods i could POTENTIALLY see ascending the askr trio are loki or thorr #like have you ever noticed that loki and thorrs weapons look a lot like alfonse and sharena and annas. i always wondered #if that was a deliberate connection made #i also don't expect that they'd make alfonse and sharena visibly older as with veronica. which is a little disappointing to me #i think the visible passage of time in veronicas ascended alt is cool! #but alfonse and sharena are already adults. so i personally wouldnt expect to see a big change #armor units are painful to use for me. but i would love to see anna get an armored chestplate. a little bit of an upgrade #idk none of these opinions of mine are SUPER IMPORTANT i just like seeing characters get new outfits ^_^ #thanks for the ask!

i genuinely don’t know how to feel about sm stopping nct’s limitless expansion concept

#nabitxt #like on one hand i’m so so happy because that means there’s a higher chance of the different units and members getting treated more fairly #but it also means that nct’s concept is going to undergo a huge change bc the backbone of their concept is gone #i’m excited to see where this takes us #but also sad bc of how excited i got whenever new neos joined #it’s like melancholic in a strange way #but as long as the boys are thriving and happy #in the end that’s all that really matters #more than the concept surviving and more than the concept changing; if the boys are good then i’m good #SO HAPPY FOR NCT TOKYO THO #SUNGTARO EMPLOYMENT ERAAAAAAA #cant wait i’m alr in love w sungchan and seunghan #i esp need more sungchan content

put leo in a fine song and now im thinking abt the potentials of oddball leo again

#like hear me out its been a bit since i last read stories but iirc eichi either implies or outright says that if leo wasn't useful #as a weapon to destroy the other units and splinter units of chess that he would've/could've been an oddball #tbh i don't think certain elements would've changed. eichi would've still found a way to destroy him via his songs/composing i think #but i wonder how it'd change the overall story... leo was integral in the war as a tester for the DreamFes system and to crush the #units eichi deemed a threat/useless/etc so like. if leo + knights weren't there to serve THAT purpose and instead #leo was ostracized and later executed as an oddball how would things have changed? #i think leo still would've ended up a shut-in and struggled to compose but i think his relationships w/ people would be changed #like. a lot. i think mama would still be a close friend but i think his relationship w/ izumi may have ended up different #i bet he might've even ended up leaving knights (for a time. he'd come back) leading to knights itself changing dynamics a bit #ousama izumi perhaps? idk #these are just random ideas tbh. i still wanna know how the plot would've gone if leo was an oddball tho #with how important he was to eichi's schemes it'd be fun to see how it would've changed

the fact i got infected with shu/madara brainrot over a joke i made to a friend on discord and now im being forced to make my own content

#LOOK bc shu is an oddball and therefore sees kanata as family if u subscribe to oddball family dynamic #which i DO #then obviously bc madara is important to kanata. regardless of personal grudges i think shu would tolerate madara #i have a fic im working on that starts with madara getting seriously injured and ending up in front of shu's dorm on accident #and shu patches him up and lets him stay the night. and he tells madara its only bc he cares about kanata #but i want to eventually develop it where shu cant bear seeing madara get hurt on his double face work #bc he cares about madara. not just bc he cares about kanata #im gonna wait to keep working on it til we get a dark night's passing #but this is the idea. shu reluctantly starting to care for someone bc they forced their way into his life #no matter how much he tries to push them away. they come back bc they cant go anywhere else #bc shu will keep their secret. at least. some of them. not if you're himeru unfortunately #but it would be on the condition that you dont tell anyone that shu has a soft side/cares about anyone other than mika #bc he does care about mika and i think everyone knows that. #most people care about their unit mates and after everything in basic #shu has tried to change for the better and encourages mika to be more independent in his own way #sorry i need to use the last of my bp and go to bed #shay speaks

fun fact about me i have a billie joe poster on my wall and literally nothing else. like i have that and i have a calendar that i don’t use. because my dad got this poster for me for my birthday i think or maybe christmas since im a green day fan. but to be honest i’d definitely prefer like. the american idiot album art of something? i feel very silly having a picture of some guy on my wall even when that some guy is billiards joeseph armstrong it’s still a silly situation. anyway here’s the poster it needs some friends

#don’t judge my bookshelves i haven’t changed the selection in years and years and years #my older sister has two bookshelves so she gets to have all of our favorite books pretty much #and i just have the ones that didn’t make the cut on hers #and yes the calendar is literally for march. i just never changed it. my little sister helped me set it up though originally #anyway i definitely should get some new posters. making it a goal for the summer #i do have a map of the united states that’s been sitting poised ready to go up on a wall #im just scared of putting tacks in it to hold it up because then my wall will have more tacks in it and it’s a special wall #but i know that’s kind of stupid. so i might put that up soon #i can even put tacks where my friends live that’s what im planning on doing #once im used to the idea of putting tacks in my wall there will definitely be one for each of west xylophone #and it’ll be. pretty rad. so i should do that and then see how much space is even left over #anyway i just think this is so funny. and im spending a whole morning in my room how i don’t usually get to #so it’s just me and billie joe hanging out in here. and it’s just a silly situation #me. my post. mine. #delete later #also im sorry for the clutter on my desk i wasn’t exactly cleaning up for visitors coming over #so there wasn’t a lot of emphasis on it being presentable during the last couple weeks of school #it’s not always like that. it’s just usually like that. and today is not one of the exceptions

[readymades2002]

it is very frustrating because my mom does not know What The Deal Is but she certainly Suspects (for good reason. to be fair to her.) and she has Insinuated and she has Implied but she has not asked anything specifically. and its...not unreasonable for her to do this i guess because the last relationship i was in i didn't tell her for a year and a half. because the relationship BEFORE that was my first and it was with a girl and i asked her EXPLICITLY AND URGENTLY to not tell my dad about it because he was a massive homophobe and i knew this and saw this where she did not and she told him anyway and i have not trusted her since though, having few other options, i have continued to confide in her things that i should not confide in her that have then mysteriously made their way through all our shared coworkers back to me. and its.....its so. i don't know what to do about it. she..."stalked" is the wrong word but she followed my blog against my wishes and knowledge as a child and the more i lost trust in her and stopped talking to her the more she pried into my private life. i know my sister had similar experiences with her. and it has created this cycle where i keep trying to keep her out for my own privacy and dignity and safety and she just gets even more desperate and pathetic trying to get in after breaking my trust over and over and OVER again but i live with her and depend on her for far too many things and so it just. is this. awesomesauce

#have talked about it a bit with a few people and its...difficult? #i have always felt like i was the person standing between my parents when my dad was at his worst #and as kind of like. someone who failed to protect my family from him #and the last few months ive started recognizing patterns where 1) when my parents were united #was when there was a common threat and that common threat was ALWAYS me and my insanity. which feels. bad #and 2) my mother had no one to talk to about the horrific shit he said and so often ended up relaying #some of the worst things youve ever heard to me and my sister very conversationally #every thing he said about me that haunts me i heard when she told me and then went 'ha! isnt that so stupid he would say that?' #like. i guess its. she was a...i hate using it here but a Victim in thatsituation but im also starting to learn #that she was also a collaborator. and that she failed to protect us or take care of us often because she was scared of him #or sometimes because she agreed with him or hated/resented us or whatever. its. um #it is difficult. and every time i try to change and talk openly around her instead of being passive aggressive as i learned from her #she responds in the same guilt trippy icy way and says i am pissy or i think too black and white or do i think shes a bad person #and so i cannot...i cannot grow with her because it HURTS. every time. and ive just kind of...found it harder and harder to talk to her #at all. and her pain fills the apartment because she sees it happening. and it makes coming back here every day #even more unbearable even more crushing and i don't know what to do about it #it has been so weird. ive been trying to...change and grow. to be Real. to be truthful and to communicate well #for my friends and coworkers and family and i feel i've come so far sometimes #and then when it comes to her i just don't know how to do it because i don't trust her. #and when i try it only hurts both of us and i can't explain that to her because she WILL take it personally and she #she...everyone is capable of change. i believe that. to be alive is constant changing. but she refuses. #when she asked me if i thought she was a bad person she answered her own question going 'i dont think so. #i think you see things so much more black and white than i do and you're so easily offended and sensitive. i think im a good person' #not in a...not in a combative way but in a sincere way. and its like. i dont think i even responded i was fucking flabbergasted #where do you even GO from a statement like that lmao!!! god. its so frustrating. it is so so so fucking frustrating

[listen-to-the-inner-walrus]

so in an attempt to actually use positive thinking, anytime i fuck up and my brain reacts as if ive cause a minor apocalyptic event, i compare my fuck up to the 4 minute fuck up committed by the crew of the uss william d porter.

and only today, as i was having to explain what happened to my mom when i was explaining the whole comparison thing, did i realise that most people dont know about it and ive decided that needs to change because its objectively hilarious.

...which is a weird thing to say about an event that occured on a warship in 1943, specifically november 14th.

see the uss william d porter was a fletcher-class destroyer but you dont need to know what that means, just that she had guns that went bang bang and that she was escorting another ship, the uss iowa, to cairo.

while they were on their way there, they performed some gun trials like testing the anti-aircraft guns or the torpedos. and while they were running a torpedo drill, the crew of the porter managed to fire a live torpedo straight at the iowa which you know, in terms of a list of things to do while escorting a ship, shooting a torpedo at them is not on that list.

especially if the president of the united states is on board.

yeah so fdr was on board and the gun trials were actually his idea, and part of the trials was that they were conducted under radio silence.

and that means the crew of the porter couldnt just call the iowa to be like "move out the way, we accidentally shot a torpedo at you."

but they did have signal lamps and you know, the signalman on board was trained to signal this exact kind of message.

...and uh never mind, the signalman did manage to successfully tell the iowa that a torpedo was coming toward them but wasnt as successful when it came to the direction the torpedo was coming from.

not all hope is lost though because the signalman could still use the signal lamp to correct his previous mistake and-, never mind, he announced that the porter was reversing, which she wasnt.

yeah so at catastrophic mistake number 3, they broke radio silence to warn the iowa and she managed to turn out of the way just in time which meant no one got hurt. and even though the inquiry into the incident led to chief torpedoman (fantastic job title btw) lawton dawson being sentences to hard labour, fdr intervened and waved away his sentence, saying it was all an accident.

but yeah, so thats my new measure for "how much did i really fuck up?" and when i compared accidentally picking up a pencil case without a tag on it in wilko, turns out it was a very minor fuck-up. yes, the cashier had to ask another worker to grab a duplicate so they could scan the barcode, but i didnt nearly kill the president during wartime via accidental friendly fire

#kai rambles #so like #i enjoy ships and learning about them and looking at them but like #i dont really care for warships #i dont hate them viscerally like i do cruise ships but i never really care for them #apart from the ones that were just like either ridiculously designed like the hms captain or the vasa or the novgorod #or the ones where just insane shit happened like with the william d porter #like this isnt even the extent of the porters unfortunate incidents like shr was sank by a kamikaze attack that MISSED #but somehow ended up below the ship and exploded and just like yeeted the porter out of the water #william d porter #uss william d porter #ww2 #world war 2 #world war ii #warships #again warships are really not my thing but god some of them are so fucking funny #uss iowa #fdr #franklin d. roosevelt #this suddenly got so many notes in like less than 24 hours what the fuck #shipposting

The reading comprehension on this website is piss poor. John literally didn't mean he was greater than Jesus or better than Jesus, he was just trying to make a point about the world becoming more secular. Cancel culture has gone too far.

How dare you say we piss on the poor?? Jesus died for Mr Lennon's sins and it's not "cancelling" to send him a few respectably worded death threats to remind him of that. He cancelled our Lord first!

Girl Jesus literally said it's cool, I dropped acid yesterday and saw Him and He told me.

Hi I'm new to the Hair musical fandom so I'm not super invested in the whole discourse, but I just felt like this needed to be said: Friendly reminder that not being against the war in Vietnam does not make you a bad person!

I found myself having, not exactly an argument recently, but a highly opinionated conversation with someone who did not believe my assertion that once upon a time there were official Hello Kitty vibrators. With the aid of the Wayback Machine, I found this article, and thought the world at large might enjoy it too...

Here's the text of the article:

The history of the Hello Kitty vibrator

By Peter Payne October 4, 2004

Sanrio is one of the top character licensors in the world, having more or less created the business model of doing business by creating something that doesn't really exist and licensing its use to other companies. Sanrio produces nothing -- all their characters, like the Little Twin Star, Minna no Ta-bo, Bad Batz-Maru, exist as legal entities and nothing more. Their most successful character, Hello Kitty, or Kitty-chan as she's known in Japan, is now now thirty years old.

One of the many companies that license Sanrio's characters for their products was a Japanese company called Genyo Co. Ltd. Genyo made a wide variety of products, from bento boxes to children's toys to chopsticks, many with the Hello Kitty character on them. They scored big in the late 1990's with an off-the-wall hit, a series of Hello Kitty toys which featured a different Kitty figure from each of Japan's 47 prefectures, each representing something the prefecture was famous for. (The figure from Gunma Prefecture, where we live, represented a wooden kokeshi doll.)

In 1997, Genyo designed a product that would live in infamy: the Hello Kitty vibrating shoulder massager, which really is a shoulder massager (trust us -- it says so on the package). Sanrio approved this design without batting an eye, and the product enjoyed modest sales in toy shops and in family restaurants like Denny's and Coco's. It wasn't until 1999 or so that people began to catch on to the fact that the Hello Kitty massager had other potential uses, and with amazing speed, they started popping up in adult videos in Japan. The next thing anyone knew, they had changed into a cult adult item, sold in vending machines in love hotels -- after all, what self-respecting man wouldn't buy his girl a Hello Kitty vibrator when she asked him for one?

The emergence of the Hello Kitty vibrator as a cult adult item caused friction between Sanrio and Genyo, and Sanrio ordered the company to stop making the units. Genyo refused, since it had paid a lot of money to license Kitty for their products. There seemed nothing Sanrio could do, since they had approved the item for sale (see the official Sanrio sticker on the boxes). The answer came when the Japanese tax authorities raided Genyo on suspicion of tax evasion. It seems that some creative accounting was going on between the president of the company, a Mr. Nakamura, his vice president, and the owner of the factory in China where the units were made. All three were arrested, and Sanrio had the excuse needed to yank Genyo's license. They seized the molds used to make the vibrators and destroyed them.

And so, the sad, weird chapter of the Hello Kitty vibrator is at an end. The last of the Kitty vibes are gone, so now what will the world do for wacky comic -- and sexual -- relief?

marriage of convenience with ghost....... is definitely not for the weak. or, if you think he's still gonna be this grumpy son of a bitch that you know from your high school days.

you need money and good health plan; and he can provide you that, so with trembling hands, you send him a letter; strictly to his unit. not many details, as if someone would read it, you'd be in trouble. just a simple ask if you could meet with him, if he still remembers you because you still remember him.

it's not easy as you'd like to, though - everything has to wait because he's on deployment for the next two months, but you can wait. you struggle, but you wait.

in the meantime, you exchange letters with him, as it's more of a "stationing" deployment rather than a open crossfire; you didn't expect he'd be so much of a talker in them. you learn about him and his "comrades" (because he rarely uses the word friends anymore), what it's like. what he misses, and you learn that he miss you.

you feel kind of bad that you reached out to him for materialistic matter in the first place. you feel even more bad when you see him right in front of you after two months of writing to each other.

he changed. very much so; he's bigger and wider than he was in high school. more nonchalant, nothing like a quiet boy like he was. simon looks like he owns the place, even if the said place is a hill that you used to chill at after school.

you break news to him within ten minutes of the meeting, nervous. there's a lot of monologue from your side, you don't even let him talk until he grips your jaw in his monstrous hand and your lips shut themselves automatically.

"okay."

and then, just like it, it's done. you think it's gonna be easy, an open marriage until you're gonna be stable. he's so much on deployment anyway, he said it himself, so you won't be obliged to do "wife duties".

you thought this way until the wedding night. until he grabbed you and asked how would you like it.
