50 Shades Of The Worst Shelter Expansion Pack I Have EVER Played

First of all, I'm here

Then there is drugs, like the deadly kind not the pot and a cigarette kind,

Then there is wondering if my meal is going to taste like wray n nephew infused rice, lemon wood shine infused pasta, spoiled stew, butter chicken and naan break -- excellent, some of the salmon ones --- excellent, fried chicken --- excellent, jerk chicken --- excellent, "its pasta with chicken" No son, thats pasta with TOFU. and then I'm here like, ok

Then it's fish with christmas rice crispies breading with some sour nerds in it, so I'm like "I'll just take a bag of crackers"

Then we have someone playing some crazy rap screamo at 7:30am in the morning, thinking were all gonna go

SOMEONE FIRE THE DJ. (Jack you always play a good set. Also, there is another young guy there that has good tunes and fine times)

Then sometimes there is cake, and we remember I need mine in a cup because my hands literally just start to drop and throw shit, but again c a k e and they all get a face like this

Then some guy asks if I have meth and puts his hands on my mittens

Then it's not even 9am on a Sunday and I haven't even got Tim Hortons yet, having to tell the bus driver the bus needs an exposure wipe -- (ear shit is coming out white on my black coat)

My dogs are barking, the cops are waiting, cars driving by are wondering because I go straight to cussing in patois

Naturally I assume Scarberia Paintball Party position and wait

"Did YOU expose my baby to bad drugs today?"

"The dog keeps blaring on the horn and I don't even have a dog on me"

Yeah, bet.

------------------------------------ Then I bus up to 401 and Divison St to sit outside of McDonalds, somewhere between 401 on one side, the train tracks on the other, the megatron building to remind me how fucked transformers one went,

Also praying it doesn't rain dump water on me --- usually that only happens when I have money to shop at no frills so naturally I'm like this at all times.....

Pick a fucking side, it nah matter because its a sure thing either way

And then I get back and see another human being I love and I wonder how I'm supposed to balance funeral expenses for my family, notification for my family, the absolute garbage people that have showed up in the past, the people in their paths here in Kingston with the same malice and I just....

And sometimes I just look at the cameras like this because it gets so lonely as a noot noot penguin x mumble penguin mash up woman.

Then I see a problem as I going through a number of phases and directions,

Both these faces in disbelief,

And "wow you look and sound like chaotic, gotta go"

And essentially I just wrap it up like "fuck it, if I die I die"

Waiting for the transport and my honking dog or the paint ball party crew to pull up and rescue me from this hell

There's more. There's always more. I'll leave it at the paintball party pon me for now. (Cheat codes uploaded to facebook a few weeks back. Re: Search and Rescue Paintball Party with ass plate receipts & diagrams)

Go For Baroque

There’s a simple way to curb the wild winds of a March still stuck in the snow – warm up by congregating with the sensational orchestral works of the Kingston Baroque Consort. And that’s exactly what Kingstonians did on Friday, March 28th at St. James Church. Their season finale, Kingston Baroque Consort welcomed us to their production of “Baroque Celebration,” featuring the well-known works of…

Mansion Alt Rock Night Out: Sons of Rick, A Short Walk To Pluto, Kojak

I’m at the Mansion tonight for an evening of good alt rock music — the bill consists of funksters Blunt Force Llama, hometown heroes Sons of Rick, touring band A Short Walk To Pluto and the psychedelic band Kojak. 

It’s a homecoming show of sorts for Sons of Rick. The four piece all live in Kingston, but singer and guitarist Nathan Graham has been away at school in Toronto, meaning the band have had fewer opportunities to gig together in the past 6 months. Nevertheless, you’d never be able to tell they had been out of it for a while. On stage, they are electric — the whole band is in sync, they are energetic, hopping around the stage, pulling off rockstar moves and windmilling over the crowd, jumping off amps and being total, confident showmen (and -woman: Ryleigh Stringer behind the kit held down a tight rhythm). Their originals are exciting and they draw in the crowd with banter and tales about their songs, like the cathartic rager Mr. Shelf, dedicated to a bad neighbour (and generalised out to Canada’s own badly behaved neighbour— a moment of collective, Canadian rage was let out in the little Mansion tonight). 

Nathan and Nick from Sons of Rick.

Being as it is St. Patrick’s day weekend, the band also donned appropriate attire: Nathan in a giant green Guinness hat that somehow stays on his head on as he jumps and arcs around the stage, and lead guitarist Joel Schell briefly sporting green glasses as he rips through a guitar solo. 

Sons of Rick in action at the Mansion.

Nathan ditches the guitar for the band’s final song, a cover of Rage Against The Machine’s Bulls On Parade (a very favoured cover in Kingston), leaving the riffing to Joel and guitarist/bassist/co-vocalist Nick Zaporozhets. The band’s sudden burst of energy is infectious and within moments, the crowd is moshing, headbanging and dancing like their lives depend on it. 

The mood at Sons of Rick’s show is very local and community-focused: the subjects of their songs are local, and the eponymous Rick (one of the band members’ father) is in the crowd. After their set, the band can be found right at the front of the crowd, enjoying the other bands and swaying along to their music. 

Following Sons of Rick is the Toronto band A Short Walk To Pluto. Usually a four piece, the band are down one member tonight: their singer Emma is ill and out of action, and so their drummer Jake Biggs has admirably stepped up as a vocalist with about a day’s notice to complete a cool three-piece for one night only. Cool was never in question though: the trio comes on stage in shades, sharply dressed and ready to play some cool alt rock. 

A Short Walk To Pluto.

There are more covers in the band’s set than usual (owing to them having to make last minute changes to their setlist to accommodate new vocal ranges), and Pluto are having fun. There are riffs in the plentiful as the band’s guitarist and bassist Max Kaiser and George Papangelakis strut across the stage with ease, they even cover Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Dani California. Any RHCP song is a bold choice of cover where a singing drummer is involved, especially one doing it at such short notice, but Jake makes it look easy. 

The band also play a few of their own songs, from their February-released debut album Out Of Range. The album varies from prog to alternative rock, and occasionally to moody, dreamy indie shoegaze. Stand-in singer Jake brings a new and interesting element to their songs, occasionally drawling like a ‘90s grunge singer. 

For their final song, the band have a surprise for us: they bring out Jake’s alter ego ‘Sabrina’, “all the way from LA”, with the shiniest blonde hair you’ve seen and a permanent falsetto. It’s a night of fun and great music, what else is there to say? 

Sabrina in action.

The last band of the night are Prince Edward County locals and Kingston frequenters Kojak, a six-piece band layering psychedelic alt rock that’s catchy enough to have the crowd swaying at all times, layered with some delicate keys, some rock riffing, and occasionally even a country twang. 

They set the dancefloor ablaze at 11 PM on a quieter night at the Mansion: the floor simply does not stop dancing, a credit to the band’s infectious energy and extremely—if sometimes surprisingly—danceable riffs. 

Kojak.

They also have great range in their music. Kojak pulled off a surf, spooky cover of Billie Eilish’s breakthrough hit Bad Guy, that rocked way harder than you could ever imagine the crossover of surf and lofi pop to. Following that was an instrumental and surfy cover of Tears For Fears’ Everybody Wants To Rule the World, where in lieu of singing, their guitarist makes the guitar sing and weep those lines so evocatively you’d swear there was a singer hidden in their amp, secretly humming along. Somewhere in between the two is their indie cover of Police’s Message In A Bottle. 

Their complex and layered music occasionally moves into math rock territory and noodles along, but never loses the dancefloor — ironically, not even when they cover Billy Joel’s Dancing With Myself, opening everything from a moshpit to people genuinely pulling shapes: all testament to a great night out in town.

Been thinking about the "Blissful love life" ending. If i were to have the time to draw multiple-part comics, i would definitely interpret that Mr. Crawling decided to become a househusband while MC is the breadwinner (ygk, girlboss and malewife trope!)

(Also i headcanon that MC gives him the nickname "Crawly")

The Great Produce 48 Rewatch: Ep 3, Grade Reassignments Concluded

Welcome back, National Producer-nim, and Happy New Year! 

This crazy Produce48 Rewatch project is just flying by! In episode 1, we saw the girls enter the studio and begin their auditions. In episode 2, we saw the end of the auditions and the dorm move-in, as well as the video evaluations for their final grade reassignment, which we covered in the previous post. Now, in episode 3, we’ll finish the grade reassignments, see the huge performance of Nekkoya, and see the beginning of the first Challenge Mission! Of course, in this post, we’ll only see as much as I can cover with only 30 screenshots, which is up to the end of grade reassignments. Feel free to watch along: https://kshow123.tv/show/produce-48/episode-3.html

We start off with a short clip of YGK+ model Ahn Ye Won on the phone with her mom. The 17-year old would-be idol can’t help but cry. In her journal, she has written “I started crying as soon as I called my mom. I told her it’s hard. I wanted to go home.” 

This kicks off a montage of trainees expressing their doubts and fears. Future Kep1er member Kim Dayeon voice overs, “It’s a lot harder than I expected.” Previously voice-less Goto Moe says, “I felt like I lack a lot.” Show-punching-bag Shin Suyhun says she feels like she’s the only one falling behind, which is definitely not true. Friendly Choi Yena says she’s mad at herself. Kato Yuuka journals, “I feel like I’m facing a wall.” As we see Honda Hitomi’s cute face, we hear from Yu Min Young, the mint-colored-polka-dot auditioner, who wonders, “Is this all I got?” They’re all so tired, emotionally and physically. 

But peppy music kicks in and the montage gets more cheerful, as girl after girl says something like “I want to debut!” and “I’m going to keep trying!” 

After the title/credits, we get right back to where we left off at the end of episode 2 -- with the Great Grade Reshuffling. 

As a reminder,

Jeremy* is giving the news to the A class

Psychopath giving the news to the B class

Cheetah giving the news to the C class

Mary J Lee giving the news to the D class 

Dance Bae giving the news to the F class 

*That’s what I call Lee Hongki

We don’t see much of Mary J Lee, but she seems really great. These are her grade-delivering heels!

Also, a lot of the Japanese girls aren’t present because they’re off doing something else for their AKB48 jobs. 

So the plan for the Great Grade Reshuffling is to have the girls from the lower grades move to their new grades first. This means that the A-class will find out their fates last. Jeremy tells them that if a lot of new girls arrive in the A classroom, there is an even higher chance that they’ll move down.

Side note: It's interesting that Jeremy was chosen to deliver the news to the A-class girls. He wasn't their vocal teacher -- Soyou was -- so he would have been comparatively unfamiliar. It might just have been that Soyou was unavailable, but I could convince myself that they chose Jeremy because Soyou is too nice to mess with their heads the way that Jeremy does. (Clearly Jeremy is just acting on orders from production, of course.)

We've already seen a few people's grades, but let's see a few more, and then when we're done I'll tell you everyone's grades and the new makeups of each group.

First up is a trainee moving from D down to F. It turns out to be YGK+ model Choi Yeon Soo, who completely forgot the words during her video evaluation. We saw her being sweet to Sailor Mercury earlier on, drawing a little picture to encourage the 14-year-old to get some sleep. She seems like a really nice girl, even if she might be a nepo baby. It’s a bummer that she has to move down to F class, but at least she’ll get to join her equally nice label mate Ahn Ye Won, who has failed to move up from F. 

Yewon laughs at Yeonsoo a little, but I don’t think it’s mean-spirited. From what we see of both girls, they seem really nice. 

Next we see a trainee moving down to F from  -- it’s Jang Gyuri from fromis_9, as discussed earlier. The girls are really really chincha chincha shocked. 

There’s Huh Yujin, future Le Sserafim, wearing yellow, second in a column of two. 

Next, there’s a trainee moving from D to B. And it’s Miru-chan, as we talked about earlier. The Japanese girls already in class D are surprised to see her, because she charming and they consider her a good dancer. But the judges think her singing is unstable and her dancing is “heavy,” like she’s getting twice as much gravity as anyone else. It’s just because she’s sad! Aww, Miru-chan! 

Next, we’ll see a girl moving to C from F. Of course, Chiba Erii would love to move up to C -- she’s not confident about her singing but she is confident with her dancing. But as we know, she’s staying in F. Dance Bae says, of Erii and her dancing, “Every time I see her, it’s so sad.”

She really does have an arresting face, though. 

So who is moving up from F to C? Well, as previously mentioned, it’s Goto Moe, the one with laryngitis on audition day. 

She says she thinks the trainers are giving her a C for "chance." Aww, this is sweet. She’s still a pretty terrible singer but hey, she’s getting better. Ganbatteyo, Moe-chan! 

Who moved to C from D? 

It’s Very Pretty Girl Kim Minju, who has also proven herself to be a Very Hardworking Girl. Dance Bae says, of Minju’s audition, “She’s not very good, but she doesn’t deserve to stay in D.” That’s Dance Bae for you! It’s accurate -- Minju’s singing was sometimes on key, but sometimes a few tones off, and though she seems to have done the whole dance, she still doesn’t exactly own the floor. Still, it’s great improvement. Minju, fighting! 

She voice overs something kind of sad: “I was told that I’m ambiguous. I’m not very good at singing or dancing or even acting. Then it said C next to my name for my final grade. I thought I was always ambiguous. I was disappointed.” I get what she’s saying. She’s so pretty that the entertainment industry is looking for an excuse to put her on screen, but she doesn’t really stand out with any particular skill. Aww. At least she seems fairly self-aware. 

Next to Minju in the shot above is Nakanishi Chiyori, who wore the pink fluffy skirt in What's Your Name?. Looks like she’s not thrilled with moving up only one spot. Hey, take your wins, Chiyori!! Some people in F stayed there -- it could always be worse. 

Next, someone is moving from C to B -- let’s see who it be! As mentioned in a previous recap, it’s Son Eunchae, future Bugaboo, who got so much story focus. She seems pretty happy, though -- not annoyed that she didn’t get into A class.

But who *did* make it into A class, stealing spots from the current A-class girls? Even though the spots aren’t limited?

First, it’s Kim Shihyun, future member of Everglow, who literally comes running in to the A-classroom. She’s obviously delighted to be there. 

We see a clip of her evaluation video, and obviously, she does great. 

Next is Ah Yujin, who also moved up from B. 

Also moving up from B is little Kang Damin (label mate of flat tummied Hwang Soyeon) and  future Rocket Punch Juri.

I hate that the staff told the A girls that if more girls moved up from lower ranks that they were more likely to move down, because as the lower ranked girls enter the room, no one seems happy to see them. Kind of a rotten welcome. Of course, that must be editing, too. I bet Soyeon was happy to see Damin. 

Moving up from C are Ko Yujin (“Hyuna lookalike”) and Honda Hitomi, as I mentioned earlier. We see a clip of Hitomi’s previous practice that we’ve never seen -- Soyou saying that Hitomi has one of the weakest vocals among all the Japanese girls. The judges were all shocked at how much she had improved. Wow, that’s great! I love that. (Kim Nayoung, future Lightsum, also joins, but we don’t see her come in.)

The A-classroom is starting to fill up. Jeremy, piling on the pressure, tells the girls that they should know that there was also a girl who moved up from F class all the way to A, but that she’s in Japan right now due to a scheduling conflict. 

We get a cute scene of Jeremy telling Yabuki Nako that she moved all the way up to A, via video chat. She screams and jumps up and down. It’s adorable. Her dream came true!

The new members of A-class: Kim Shihyun, Kang Damin, Ah Yujin, Juri, Kim Nayoung, Ko Yujin, and Honda Hitomi 

Now that the new members of A class are there, the current members of A get their new grades. They aren’t supposed to react or spill the beans, so as to maintain the suspense (that I already ruined). 

Who is this formerly A-class person walking through the door of B-class?

The Starship girls -- including original-face-Wonyoung -- are shocked that it’s…. Yuehua's Choi Yena. 

She looks so different without her cheerfulness and without her ponytail. It must have been weird for her to experience the happiness of her Yuehua labelmate joining A class, only for her to almost immediately leave it behind.

Now, who’s this coming into Class C? MNET drags it out, of course, but it’s… Kwon Eunbi.

She sits down behind Kim Cho Yeon (fire eyes girl) and Kim Doah (future Fanatics/GP999), who have also both moved down from A class with her, and quietly begins to cry. None of them really has the strength to comfort the other at this point. 

Kim Su Yun, future Rocket Punch and current labelmate of Eunbi’s, covers her face to hide her tears. Suyun probably didn’t come on this show genuinely hoping to make the top 12 -- she’s here for exposure, mostly, and the experience -- but she knows that 22-year-old Eunbi really NEEDS this. 

Eunbi tearfully explains that she feels bad because as an unnie, she always tells her younger labelmates that they can do this -- and she feels like she broke her promise. 

Back in A class, Jeremy announces that the trainee who is moving down to F should go now. Someone stands up, and no one looks that surprised, just sad. They saw her recording her evaluation video and knew that something like this was possible, even likely. A pixelated blur moves down the hall and makes its way to F class. Who could it be? The F class girls are shocked to see that it’s Jo Yuri, one of the Chewing Gum auditioners (she was in the lemon yellow). 

We see a clip of her evaluation video, in which she completely froze. Poor kid. She’s only 16. When I was 16, I had a fight with my mom the night before the SATs and I couldn’t sleep all night, like not at all, not even for 10 minutes. I was just seething with rage and I couldn’t make it stop. I had to go take the SATs on no sleep at all and I just stared at it, like, what is this? What is 2+2 again? If my whole future had rested on that exact test, my whole future would have turned out quite different than it did.

Thankfully, I had another chance, and thankfully, Jo Yuri will have another chance too, when she does some of the upcoming missions. So it’ll be ok, Yuri. 

Now that Yuri and the other “failures” have been kicked out of the room, Jeremy tells the 14 remaining A-class girls that they will be the center of the big performance of Nekkoya. 

And here is the final arrangement of trainees:

New group A: 

Before, there were 15 members of group A.  After, there were 14 members of group A.  Obviously, no one moved up, but 9 members moved down.  8 new members joined.

At some point around episode 3, Tsukiashi Amane withdrew from the competition, so this is our chance to say goodbye to her and see how she’s doing now.

After she left the competition, she went back to HKT48 and performed with them until 2020, when she graduated, saying she wanted to leave the J-pop sphere. However, in 2022 she debuted in a J-pop group called Fruits Zipper. Per their website:

FRUITS ZIPPER is a 7-member idol group consisting of Tsukiashi Amane, Matsumoto Karen, Manaka Mana, Sakurai Yui, Hayase Noel, Nakagawa Luna, and Chinzei Suzuka. 

​The group was formed from participants in ASOBISYSTEM’s idol project KAWAII LAB. The group’s name combines FRUITS, meaning ‘to bear fruit,’ and ZIP, meaning ‘to give energy.’ The group’s concept is ‘from Harajuku to the world,’ and the group will transmit what they call ‘NEW KAWAII’ from Harajuku, an area known for fashion and individuality, to the world.

​From collaborating with renowned creators to selling out monthly concerts, the girls have already made a name for themselves at numerous large-scale events despite having only just debuted. 

​Even before FRUITS ZIPPER made its debut, the girls attracted plenty of attention with their stunning visuals. With their cute image and incredibly powerful stage performances, the group has already captured the hearts of fans around the world.

They’re doing a thing and honestly, I’m here for it. That’s Amane in red in the middle.  

This is either their most popular MV or an ad for Beanie Babies. I’m not 100% sure. I’m not adding it to my playlist, I guess I’ll say. 

Her tiktok is pretty active, as is her insta. Looks like she’s dabbling in gravure a bit, and also doing some modeling for magazines and brands. Get that money, girl!

Ganbatte and Happy trails, Amane-chan! 

And that's it for this post! I'll see you in the next one, when I provide a bit of analysis on the overall grade changes. We're getting close to the first challenge mission. Thanks for reading, and I hope you have a great New Year!

A Trip to Domino Theatre is Bountiful

A trek to Texas is only a seven minute walk from Downtown Kingston if you’re looking for Bountiful in this remarkable, moving, and ultimately touching production of The Trip To Bountiful, currently showing at Domino Theatre on Church Street. “Do you want to go to a play?” I was unexpectedly asked this morning.

官報によると、東京都大田区に本拠を置く発電機販売の「YGK通商株式会社」は、7月1日付で東京地方裁判所より破産手続の開始決定を受け倒産したことが明らかになりました。 2005年に設立の同社は、グループ会社が開発したガスエンジンを利用する小型ガス発電機の開発・販売を手掛けるほか、近年は大手ガス会社などと共同でガスを利用可能な防災用小型発電機の開発・販売を行っていました。 しかし、売上は安定せず厳しい事業環境が続くなか、多額の研究開発費が資金繰りを逼迫したため、これ以上の事業継続は困難と判断し今回の措置に至ったようです。 信用調査会社の東京経済によると、負債総額は約17億2000万円の見通しです。
