Greetings again, Cats are Liquid fandom!
They say that if a fandom exists, there is an animatic of the one thing for it.
I am here today to prove that claim correct.

Unbelievers
Tumblr media
There is no such thing as an unbeliever.
We are all believers. Whether we are aware of it or not, every last one of us has faith in something. We all believe in, we all trust, something.
Whether it’s God. Or what we imagine science is. Or what we call “our research” (which, if we’re honest with ourselves, is more like an odd mixture of stuff we found online that confirms our biases). Or the classics – like power or wealth or ourselves.
All of us have faith in something. All of us trust something.
There is no such thing as an unbeliever.
But no matter what we think we believe in (if we think about it at all), for most of us, our faith drifts. Because we shift what we trust in.
Usually it happens without thinking. Even when we start the day off right with God, trusting in God. Something can happen that sends us off, trusting in something else.
Maybe someone calls us out on our BS.
Instinctively, we try to explain what we were doing. To justify why we were doing it. To show that it isn’t the BS they think it is.
Without really thinking about it, we’ve seamlessly switched into trusting ourselves to get us out of a situation that we don’t want to be in.
That’s how subtly we can switch our faith. Without ever meaning to.
When we do, all too often, we don’t notice it. We don’t even realize what we’ve done to ourselves.
The thing to know is that what we believe in is the foundation for our thoughts. Our actions. Our lives. Faith is that foundational. That’s why what we trust, what we believe in matters.
Today, look at how you respond to things. Especially the stressful stuff.
Your go to? The first thing that pops to mind? More like the first thing you say without thinking.
That’s what you’re putting your faith in. That’s what you trust.
If it’s anything other than God, eventually it will fail you.
That’s the point that Jesus is making in today’s Gospel. With the story about the two houses, one built on the rock and one built on the sand.
With all the people and things you can believe in, there’s only One that lasts.

"The One Thing You Can't Replace" - Ex-Niji Version
AKA the closest I'll ever get to discourse-posting. But if you have quotes for Mint, Doki and the rest, by all means send them in!
Maid Mint: Another story I heard about myself... This one happened in Nijisanji. We had this boss, Mr. Tazumi, and I had a kouhai who went to our agency, Rosemi Lovelock. She was in Obsydia and I was in LazuLight, so she was a gen behind me.
Mint: So Mr. Tazumi was an asshole. And one weekend, he and his yacht decided to leave town, which you should never do if you're an asshole. And Rosemi decided to throw a party at the HQ - hooray! So everyone around Niji heard about it, and we all got up individually and said:
Quinn Benet: Okay. Let's go over there and destroy the place.
Mint: I walked into this party. Everyone I had ever met was there, and everyone was drinking like it was the end of the world! We were drinking like it was the Civil War and a doctor was coming to saw our legs off. It was totally unsupervised. We were like dogs without horses - we were running wild.
Mint: I walked down... I walked down to the basement. They had a pool table in the basement.
[Cut to Michi Mochievee, jumping onto the pool table]
Mint: One kid took a running start and threw her body onto the pool table and broke it in half.
[Cut to Kuro, plotting mischief]
Mint: Another kid found out which office was Tazumi's and went upstairs and took a shit on his computer.
Mint: So the party was going great.
[Chat cheers]
Mint: I'm standing in the basement, and I'm holding a red cup - you've seen movies - and I'm standing there, and I'm starting to black out. And I guess someone said, like...
Sayu: Something, something, managers.
Mint: And in a brilliant moment of word association, I yelled:
Mint/Pomu: FUCK THE MANAGERS! FUCK THE MANAGERS!
Mint: And everyone else joined in! Three dozen drunk EN children yelling "Fuck. Da. Managers." with the confidence of guys who have, like, already been to jail and aren't afraid of it anymore - you know, that "I served my nickel! You come and take me!" confidence. But EN children.
Mint: The reason someone had said "something something managers" was because the managers were there. So an Anycolor manager walked down the stairs and got to the bottom in the basement, and looked out over a sea of drunk toddlers yelling "Fuck the managers!" in his face! And he was almost impressed! He was like, "Wooooowww..." And then he leaned into his walkie-talkie and went: "Get the paddywagon!"
Mint: And my friend Matara - who is now a mother, this woman has babies - she grabbed a 40, smashed it on the ground and yelled:
Matara: SCATTER!!!
Mint: And everyone ran in a different direction. We all ran in different directions. It was like that scene in Rat-tat-touille when the humans come in the kitchen and all the rats go in different ways - we all ran in different directions.
Mint: I ran into the laundry room and I jumped up on a washing machine, and I crawled out through a window into the back alley, and now I'm running through the back alley and there was this big chain link fence. And I thought:
Mint/Pomu: I have never climbed a fence that high before!
Mint: And then I woke up at home.
[Chat laughs uproariously]
Mint: On Monday, I went to work, because that's what we did back then. And I'm walking into the collab, and who do I see but Rosemi Lovelock. And she says to me:
Rosemi: Hey, were you at my party on Saturday?
Mint: And I said no. You know, like a liar. And he said:
Rosemi: Things got really out of hand. Someone broke the pool table. Someone took a dump on Tazumi-san's computer. But the worst thing is, someone stole these old antique photos of Tazumi's grandmother. And our bosses are freaking out about it.
Mint: And I had that thought that only blackout drunks and Steve Urkel can have: "Did I do that?"
[She pauses as chat reacts]
Mint: I figured no, I wouldn't have done that. But I was never sure - until, a year later... Relax!
Mint: I'm playing video games with this kid named Dokibird, that we also went to Nijisanji with. A year later, we've graduated by now. We're playing video games for a couple hours. And then Doki says to me:
Doki: Hey, come here, I wanna show you something.
Mint: And she takes me into her bedroom, and then she takes me into a side room off of her bedroom - never a good thing to have.
Mint: And she shows me a tiny room that is covered wall to wall in stolen antique photos from Nijisanji parties over the years. And I said: "Why? Why do you do this?"
Mint: And Doki said:
Doki: Because it's the one thing Tazumi can't replace.
[Chat erupts into laughter and cheers]

Context before I make my joke: I have a Love/Hate relationship with Elden Ring because I've already beaten (and Platinumed) Dark Souls 1, 2, 3, and BloodBorne, and I've spent numerous hours on Breath of the Wild, beating it once and almost beating it again on Master Mode. So, Elden Ring just feels like "Dark Breath of the Wild Souls" to me, but I do plan on Platinuming it along with the DLC that is coming out. After seeing the trailer, I am mildly excited about it, but definitely not as much as most fans. With that being said:

Summary:
When Bruce became Batman, he vowed to keep children safe. This vow came into play when two of the three flying Grayson's were murdered. He took in their child and kept him safe from himself.
He never let Dick Grayson go out on the streets as a vigilante. Instead, he gave him training: personal bat training and League Teamwork training. He gave the kid therapy (worked much better than beating bad guys). He let Dick, with the codename ‘Robin’, run comms with agent A. When Dick chose to continue vigilante work after the age of 16, he was ready for patrol with Batman by his side. Dick Grayson, age 18, graduated from Robin and patrolled by himself. He was kept safe and happy. Bruce was satisfied.
Bruce’s philosophy saved Jason Todd’s life.
But with Jason Todd never dying and Bruce never mourning, Timothy Drake was never needed.
But that’s fine. Tim was found by a certain demon who taught him all he needs to know.
AKA: There are too many ‘Tim joins the family early’ and not enough ‘Tim joins the family late’. I’m fixing it.

The One Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results (Authors: Gary Keller, With Jay Papasan)
Tumblr media
Small Talk 1: If you don’t think BIG you put a cap on what you can achieve
Prioritize your to-do list. All items are not equally important. The Pareto principle states- 80% of the defects comes from 20% of the flaws.
Ask FOCUS questions
The secret to getting ahead is to getting started.
The secret to getting started is knowing what to do and focus on
What’s the ONE thing you can do such that by doing it everything else becomes easy or unnecessary.
Find the direction and choose the action.
Small Talk 2: The secret to a disciplined life is sequential habit forming.
Use discipline selectively to form enduring good habits.
Channel all of your discipline into ONE habit that will anchor you.
Once you establish one habit, move onto another.
Build positive habits by selectively applying discipline.
Small Talk 3: Multi-talking is inefficient. Pick ONE thing.
Humans can’t focus on two things at once
Task switching enacts a time penalty. Every time you stop, you have to remember where you were and what you were doing.
Small Talk 4: Your will-power is like a fuel tank. Choose carefully where you use it.
Willpower drains throughout the day, depending on what activities you engage in.
When you focus attention, suppress emotion- depletes your emotion.
For examples- did you know research shows judges much more likely to give "no parole "to offenders at the end of a long work day at court? With energy is depleted- people are more likely to follow the path of least resistance.
Small Talk 5: Saying No to unimportant tasks is vital to focus on important one
Say NO to low priority requests.
Take a page from Apple's book- they went from 350 products to just 10.
Focusing is about saying NO.
Put in systems to cut down on the requests you get.
Small Talk 6: Living with purpose and visualizing goals sets you on the path to success.
Must have concrete goals to work towards to be able to know what you’re doing, why, directing your actions
Visualize each step.
What’s the ONE thing you want to do and achieve in life
Small Talk 7: Never compromise your personal life for professional goals, prioritize your work-time ruthlessly
Work is made of rubber- the others are make up glass.
Prioritize work time to focus on professional goals.
Small Talk 8- To focus on ONE thing you need time management strategies. And to embrace some chaos.
Chaos always builds but keep focus on your ONE thing.
Schedule blocks of time to work on your ONE thing and ruthlessly defend those blocks.

People are mean to you stanley. I’ve gathered this on the fact they’re telling him about you speaking despite that being like, a boundary of yours that they don’t tell anyone.
Fumbled the bag. Fumbled so horribly. He said "I know you can talk, Stanley" in that annoyingly stuffy youre-doing-something-wrong voice he does and I am absolutely panicking. It's so obvious how tf do I play this off.
