The last moments from Google+

I happened to look at an old folder of photos, and there I discovered old memories from Google Plus that made me nostalgic.

Friends, I have to tell you that I used to run this page on Google+.🥺😭

(Yes, I did. And I had hundreds of followers there..)

Since Google decided to shut down their social network, I haven't been able to recreate its exclusive experience anywhere else online.

Google+ was shut down in 2019, and since then until 2022 I haven't posted content anywhere else because I wanted to close all my accounts.

Google+ was where I would post my art on a daily basis, and it had a warm and supportive community.

This is one of my pages - "Disney Fairies - Cool Pictures".

(don't ask me why I called that name to this page, I wasn't that good at coming up with names in English because it's not my native language..🥴)

It was possible to create groups, communities, and collections.

My experience as a community manager was really fun. I was conduct activities, polls, and edits about Disney Fairies, and even upload comics that I created. ^_^

Well.. I found the folder of my early edits on Disney fairies, so many from them are so funny and I'm a bit jarring from them😅😂

But here some nice edits from the Google+ page archive (2013-2019):

I miss to Google+.❤️‍🩹😞

it's extremely critical that you see the photo of the perp walk for luigi mangione as being propaganda. i've seen so many people wave it off and instead fawn over his looks. and trust me, i know it ended up being kind of pathetic and weird - but please don't brush it off as a "modelling opportunity" for him. it's a fucking terrifying message the police are sending.

i want to make a few comparisons here, in case you're not from the US or familiar with why the perp walk thing is something to pay attention to. just to set the groundwork for why this is a purposeful, unusual, and cruel act by the nyc police - for why this is not a common occurrence and for why that matters.

the prosecution alleges the show of force is due to the charge of "terrorism." for comparison, in june 2015, tsarnaev was found guilty for the boston marathon bombing, which killed 3 people and injured hundreds. his actions are considered to be an act of domestic terrorism. i have spent the last hour looking through google for pictures of similar to mangione's perp walk - and so far, i have found zero. i also just do not personally remember a moment like that, despite living in boston at the time.

they allege that luigi is a stone-cold killer who carried out a longterm plan, making him particularly dangerous. again for comparison: in nyc, recently cory martin was found guilty of the killing of brandy odom. the murder was planned and premeditated to steal insurance money. and yet no staged perp walk. why didn't her life matter enough for a "show of force"?

but mangione gets paraded by a veritable army of police officers as if he is a rabid animal. for a single citizen who allegedly killed one other single citizen, the "largest perp walk ever" occurs.

so what is the "strong message" that the mayor and the police were trying to send here? the mayor speaks as if mangione is already convicted of terrorism. there is a very thin number of people who feel threatened by the CEO's death. none of us felt like mangione needs to be under massive armed guard.

the message is that you shouldn't resist. they are trying to "make an example" of him - that if you behave badly and kill a single rich person, you'll be treated as if you killed hundreds of people. you will be treated worse than a man who was found guilty of terrorism. you will be considered guilty without trial. the message is that the rich are a protected class, and you cannot touch them without massive punishment. they are trying to prevent a revolution by showing dominance and force against you.

the message is that the police are a puppet of the wealthy and that the law is not equally applied across class disparity. it is "some are more equal than others." it is "one life is more precious than another."

the show of force wasn't for luigi. it was for us. it was a warning. they are trying to remind us who is really in control.

I ended up leaving my job before finishing mother's day, so this only ran in a few places, but I still really like the little anim I made for father's day this year. 🦊

Does Chloe tone down her direct bullying/harassment of Marinette after that day to just the dead mom jokes out of guilt, or is it more that Marinette now being homeschooled means Chloe just lost access? Also, does Lila try the whole lying/sabotaging thing on Marinette and just fail or does Marinette just not care?

Lila has no reason to sabotage Marinette because Marinette isn't threatening her little empire she wants to build. In fact, she really wants Marinette on her side BECAUSE she's not apart of the school, so she doesn't need to keep up an elaborate web of lies! She can just try to befriend a talented girl who makes AMAZING food and try to get freebies~

meanwhile, with Chloe, things got really complicated after the pool incident...

Tom was not in the mood to put up with this crap.

thinking about jason and juno again. and juno specifically, not hera. bc like hera likes him, loves him even if the moon is blue enough, but he's juno's son champion through and through. like that's his mom. juno and lupa. when he thinks about his mom, he doesn't think about beryl, he thinks of how cold and wet lupa's snout was when she used to nuzzle him. he thinks of juno's hands in his hair when he would fall asleep in her temple. like that's his mom!!!!

and i really do wonder what their relationship was like before the switch. what did it mean to be juno's champion? and it's not like juno was just some big goddess. contrary to what riordan thinks, the romans were not some temu knockoff of the greeks. juno was the protector of rome and she was part of the capitoline triad. what did that mean for jason who so clearly bore her favor?

the romans considered her the protector of rome. they called her juno moneta, juno the warner. did jason also feel when threats to new rome were made? maybe he didn't get visions but did he wake up somedays and tie his shin guards tighter? did he run drills twice as hard in the year before the battle at mt. tamalpais? as the romans were preparing for war with the greeks did he move restlessly on the argo II? when he was out on missions in new rome, did he take out monsters near the camp? and in a more day-to-day experience, did he vote against seemingly harmless policies in the camp and in the city because of a gut instinct?

she was the patron of marriages in rome. did they have come to weddings in new rome so it could be blessed by juno? did she let him bless unions? do you think this was jason's favorite aspect of juno? do you think he tried to attend as many weddings as possible? do you think he felt like something was missing when he was a chb when he couldn't perform these duties? she was a fertility goddess as well. when a baby was born in new rome, do you think jason woke up with a pull in his chest? do you think jason liked holding these infants, the newest member of his city, and blessing them? do you think jason became a common sight in the maternity ward? how many children had a "big brother jason" or an "uncle jason" who came over every once in a while to play with them? do you think he let them play in her temple when they came by? do you think he lifted them up so they could adorn her with flowers?

like do you think he was her priest in addition to being her champion? did he raise the geese that lived in her temple? did he slaughter the goat for her festival? did he sweep and clean her temple? did he sing the songs and lead the prayers? did he find the peacock that lives there? did he plant the lotus flowers? how much of the temple duties did he perform? how long do you have to do something before it becomes a part of who you are? and when he's at chb, did it make him angry to see how cold and impersonal hera's cabin was? did it make him uncomfortable to see it so empty? was he twitching with no temple duties to keep busy with? with no geese to run after? with no rome to protect?

when he was younger, how often did he fall asleep in the temple, under his lady's watchful eye? how often did he wake up to a woman in a goatskin running her fingers through his hair singing lullabies? how often did he talk to her? how often did she respond to her champion's prayers?

and i think ultimately this removal of such a core part of him is why he never truly repaired his relationship with juno. because she took out a core part of who he was. maybe it was conditioning, maybe she raised him from birth to be a lamb for the slaughter, but it was still who he was. he was jason grace, "champion of juno" first and "son of jupiter" second. and in many ways, he was her only demigod son. and when she took it out of him, there was hole. a yawning, gaping, chasm. and he filled it with other things so well that there was no need and no room for her. he had now become jason grace "son of jupiter" first and "champion of juno" second.

Ined, this neded a stomash full of food.

Some time later and Alfred decides to drop the bomb.

Alfred: So, today a letter aribed to the maneor. It was sended by both, the CSD and that facility that aided the laters Masters Tom and Marta Wayne..."

Bruce, all confused because no one told him he was a in vitrus boy: My parents what?"

"...Its apears that a tragic had happened in the adoptive home life of Master Bruce´s biological litle brother, and both the state and the Infinite Realms sems to think this house is the perfect place to him and his mirror born twin sister. I expect you all to read this informative triptic because Yung Masters Dany and Dani (neme changing pending) are now half of a rare and prety multidimencional guarded species. An I will be damed and put my two weeks advice if my litle new sons are damaged by this emotional conspirational family"

Jackson was the frist one to react.

"Holy shit! this time te suprised new silbing one is Bruce?!"

"Oh so is it hereditary... " was Dick reaction

"A rare and delicated species you said? I shal go to therapy then." was Damian two cents before going to the library in seearsh of a good candidate.

Menawile... Bruce had yet to rebot.

Tim: okay but how jung?

Alfred: human 11 yeears old, and in ghost form 5 months old. Little Dani is just 2 months old. ¿Could you belive it? Please Miss Kent, go and give this nasty Master man a beaten up could you? i would go after him myself but i need to take care of the litles halfas.

I know this is probably just the devs reusing assets but Lucanis has the same detail on his armour as Illario's vest 🥺 (if it WAS intentional then it doesn't even really make sense because this is the imprison armour and I feel like it would be more fitting on the free Illario armour but... I'm gonna choose to be in my feels about this regardless ok thanks bye)
