Hi! Big fan of your au, got some questions
1. What's Vox's routine like in hell?
2. Now that Vox has been in hell for a while, are there things that make him uncomfortable (aside from wifi problems) and what things he finds interesting or actually likes?
3. Who's attention do you think is "worth" for Vox to win over? Winners or sinners? Or, maybe, everyone??
Thank you!
Vox's routine: Wake up E A R L Y Avoid whatever eldritch shadow booby trap that red radio guy set for him, if present. Communal breakfast! To socialize and BOND. (evidence suggests friendships and connections is a key part to redemption) Depending on whether Angel Dust works in the day or night, Vox will spend his working day helping Emily and Charlie with whatever activities they have Angel doing. He drafts and films commercials too - though getting them aired in good channels and in good timeslots is tricky. And since certain events led to him learning how to… handle himself, he'll brush shoulders with other sinners in Hell to track down anyone that might be interested in the hotel. He also wants to get sinners used to seeing him, an angel, walking around. He wants sinners to Trust Him so he can do his job. Free time is spent with Emily at first, then leans more towards Val, who mostly hangs out in a variety of clubs.
Which has gotten Vox pretty used to that sort of crowd. Before, he'd wait in a backroom or outside of a club to talk to Val but now he has no problem going inside and just hanging out with him. Val will occasionally take him to his place or Velvette's studio where its more quiet if he feels the angel is a bit. Twitchy.
Seeing dead sinners on the street and hanging from lampposts makes Vox uncomfortable. Like he doesn't know what happened or how and that unnerves him. He feels a need to know. Strangely, he doesn't mind seeing the act of murder happen. It's a shock when it happens suddenly, but it doesn't bother him. That was a weird thing to discover about himself.
Things he likes? Idk. Val. Velvette. Maybe the fast food. Some risque humor. Heaven's better, though. He misses Heaven. And Vark.
The only attention Vox genuinely values is from Emily and other Winners. Sinners are only potential future Winners. He wants to turn Sinners into Winners, then he'll start valuing them. Maybe. Pentious was kind of annoying. There's no one's attention in Hell worth winning over - it's not like he's staying there forever.
Charlie and Lucifer show an interest in him, so he treats them politely and respectfully enough, but he doesn't seek their attention. Lucifer is a high power but he's still the one who caused all of this so Vox kind of wants to avoid getting too familiar with the devil. Charlie just isn't respected by sinners so the only value she has is her status and ownership of the hotel. She's also like… annoyingly friendly with Emily. Vaggie feels like the other Winners back home - even though she's an Exorcist. Ex-Exorcist. Whatever. As long as she chooses to live in Hell, Vox isn't interested in her either.
Valentino and Velvette are different. He's graciously giving them attention. At least they're grateful for it and happily let him into their space and let him watch whatever he wants. Much better than other sinners - some winners, even! Don't tell anyone he said that though.
He'll take their attention for as long as they freely give it.

Mobile Game design overview
A personal Journal Entry and pre-development path.
R&D Still Required based on style of game; touch screen and gyro controls. --preliminary research complete.
Design Overview;
Other Mobile games, no matter how well designed, have extremely cluttered interfaces. Some of this is because there are multiple games, mini-games, and events packaged into the game at any one time.
Some games have an coin based (energy use) version of their main game, and a sub-game that does not require energy.
Consider using this style for offline and online modes. It seems popular to use energy for the online. Portion, this way the player can enjoy the game as they wish without overloading the servers offline.
Other games have several Quest, Achievement, and Event menus that can be consolidated into a single main menu.
The reason they don't do this is still unclear to me; but is probably similar to the big flashy tags and sales sign at in-person retailers, and in the Sears magazine.
If so, they don't serve the purpose they're intended to.
However; it's probably more that the development team is inexperienced and using a framework or game template that they then reuse for added areas. Creating a package which is a copy of the template over and over again.
I had previously considered implementing an old-style arcade "life" system like Mario, but perhaps a more simplified energy system, perhaps one that tracks step through the accelerometer (or other apps) to refresh would be good.
Energy refreshments shouldn't be purchaseables except for in specific circumstances; Similar to Hearthstone's Arena Tavern Brawls that happen periodically.
Players seem to enjoy "Season Packs" to purchase, and dislike an RMT (Real-money Trade) currency.
It also reduces clutter and increases understandability by reducing the options that a player has for a single game.
"Gacha Summons" shouldn't be purchaseables. meaning Gacha, or loot boxes, if used should be separated from the RMT purchase portion.
Rewards for skill shown in the online portion should be considered and given to players that perform well in whatever the online portion might be
Minor connectivity for offline achievements should be included for verification, but more or less separated from the online game entirely.
Some specific achievements may reward Skins and other abilities for the online portion.
A small game studio shouldn't really go whale fishing like happens in many games today. (Packs valued by studios worth $100+ are common and give little. Seems more like a wishful thinking menu item)
Entry into a crypto-based achievement system, whichever company is able to make a stable one; is key in future development. Releasing of items and achievements into a startup ecosystem will help the game to grow.
Without going into depth on any specific game mechanics; this covers everything about the interface design research.
The question still remains how to address monetization and store based items. Aside from releasing things into a gaming ecosystem where they can be displayed and reused in other places; I'm not sure what to sell.
Gacha games are a dime a dozen and have seemingly all the same pricing scheme. Without a reason to have seasons, theres no reason a player might want to purchase one.
Here's what I think;
Hosting Price and monthly expenses need to be taken into account, but $1-10 depending on what % the hosting service might take, for a "Premium Account" badge, either a one-time, yearly or monthly seems key.
Re-curring costs may be implemented for "seasonal" reasons based on when the majority of players tend to be actively interacting with the game.
Lastly; Data needs to be reduced to a minimum. Part of these sizes are voiced lines, raster graphics for the dozens of different menus, CGI cutscenes, and music.
All of this will help to make a game that will be able to make it into anybody's pocket.

Donation callout (NAPPY STUDIO)
When I first got to Cape Town b4 I came to Obs, a white American in my program described it to me as the “Bushwick” of Cape Town and that is Scarily accurate because its the same decreptid white ppl colonizing by starting soulessess businesses!!
If you need somewhere to create in Cape Town come to NAPPY STUDIO in Obs. Two beautiful spirits have activated a space to replenish Obs of the soul that they r attacking!!
Message from Fabian Arries:
Greetings and love
I have exciting news to share with you. Me and Sanele are currently occupying a small studio space in observatory, the main idea around the space is building and taking ownership of our independence and fight against the gentrification of our cultural creative hubs in Obs , a space that remembers.
The idea is to provide services that cater to independence. Whether you are a band or cultural movement and looking to make merchandise ,from posters, to screen printed t-shirts or perhaps you want to make a custom piece of clothing.
Nappy studio serves as a meet to your production needs.
Nappy Records (sounds of Alkebulan)
A record wall with sounds from all parts of Africa, with three picks a week to shed light on, the idea with the record wall is to archive and shed light on music from the core roots of Africa. The importance of this wall is a key factor in the course of our liberation as people of African soil and descent.
We're not selling the archive but we definitely have a few crates on sale.
(Sounds of Alkebulan)
Small gatherings that allow and cater for the exploration of African music, as we invite you to come listen to our archive of records. We might invite sounds of Alkebulan selektas to share their collections and music as time goes on but you get the vibe, yes ? :)
Nappy books
A library of pan African and traditional African literature (contributions and consignment collaborations welcome)
Nappy Wardrobe
Operation Khataza Band merchandise , a forward roots liberation inspired ltd edition wardrobe and other interesting collectables.
(Open to housing bands and cultural movements in our community's merchandice)
Okay so now that you have an idea of where we are headed with the space , we come to our call for help. We have an idea of how we want the space to look, with the simplest and cheapest materials. Wood pallets and nails.
Deposit for the space has stretched us a bit so we're asking for help, whether it be a small monetary donation or perhaps a spare pallet or decent wood you might have and don't have use for.
Forward eva, backwards neva!
One love

PokeToons Episode 10 Review - The Angry Primeape Observation Diary
While this isn’t the first PokeToons I’ve watched, but I decided to review all of them after watching this one. PokeToons does an amazing job showcasing a different type of story different from the usual weekly show. Pokemon is never afraid to experiment and this is one of the many cases. This little short is animated by ZEXCS, the studio behind the Shadowverse anime with touchups from other studios like Wit Studio. I think it’s always nice that Pokemon always showcases what other animation studios can do with a Pokemon media.
Even if my Japanese is limited, all my years of watching anime has helped me get the gist of what the plot for this story is about. Basically, the boy keeping an observation diary about his partner Pokemon Primeape that he’s telling to his class. He’s always mentioning how angry it is and wonders if he could find a way to not see it so angry, so he does various activities to calm it down like meditation, watching a movie, and all sorts of relaxing stuff. Unfortunately, Primeape gets anxious when it’s not lashing out, so the boy realizes that what his Pokemon wants is to get stronger, so they switch from R&R to Pokemon battles!
A very interesting key detail about Primeape’s battles is that it uses Rage Fist on so many Pokemon, but if you count the amount of times it’s used, it equates to around 19. But wait, if you count the amount of Pokemon it hit, there’s only 18! You obviously forgot the first time it used Rage Fist on the boy’s popcorn bag, right? That means it had been used 19 times! The 20th time was when it defeated the Baxcalibur in the tournament they were in and that’s how it evolved to Annihilape! I think that was such a clever way to showcase its evolution method! Unfortunately for the boy, even after evolution, Annihilape is still angry, but he still loves it very much. It definitely has a face that only the boy could love.
For the characters, it’s mainly the boy and his Primeape. I do love how patient and loving the boy is towards Primeape. He never gives up on his Pokemon and always does activities with it. I do like that even if Primeape gets annoyed with whatever the boy does with it, it never attacks its Trainer. It shows a sign of trust the two have. Though, it is hilarious that the boy technically “killed” his Primeape and made it evolve by coincidence and he’s just there with a giant smile plastered on his face. I’m also surprised with the cast. The boy is voiced by Rie Kugimiya who’s practically a regular in Pokemon at this point—give her a main role in the weekly anime already! Primeape is voiced by Mitsuo Iwata, who’s also a prolific voice actor as well! They did a fantastic job!
This is my first time writing a review for the PokeToons series. If you want me to write reviews for the other ones, please let me know!

Raychell x Kikuta Daisuke (Elements garden) for Real sound [2022/10/21]
~ Raychell (RAISE A SUILEN) x Kikuta Daisuke (Elements Garden) talk about the process to achieve the unique “RAS sound” in BanDori!’s history ~
Born as the backup band for Pastel*Palettes, Hello, Happy World! and Afterglow in the BanDori! Project, THE THIRD (temp.) made their debut. Starting from July 17, 2018, the band re-started their activities under the name of RAISE A SUILEN. Differently from the previous band that had many inexperienced players, the band includes Raychell (Vo/Ba) who had been working as a solo singer, Natsume (Dr) who showcased her talents in bands such as SHAZNA, experienced instrumentalists Kurachi Reo (Key) and Kohara Riko (Gt) and Tsumugi Risa (DJ/Rap) who attended an International School and is proficient in English. Amongst BanDori, the band has showcased their authentic style from the beginning.
Once they step onto the stage, their musicianship brings a splendid soundscape that overwhelms all who watch, blending Electronic Dance Music with Rock, making an aggressive sound alongside powerful lyrics. In recent years, they have been showing up regularly in Rock Festivals, and thus making their name be known in places outside of BanDori
And the ones responsible for making their music is the composition team that takes care of BanDori!’s music as a whole, Elements Garden. This time, we bring a conversation between Raychell and composer Kikuta Daisuke who has experience with many familiar RAS songs, such as R·I·O·T (Arranger) and EXPOSE 'Burn out!!!' (Arranger and composer). We look back on RAISE A SUILEN’s steps, focusing on the key points of their songs and live performances.
-------------------
ーKikuta-san, you have been involved in the making and arrangement of RAISE A SUILEN’s (RAS) music from the beginning. What was the direction you had in mind at the very start?
Kikuta: Back in the beginning, Agematsu (Agematsu Noriyasu, head of Elements Garden) told me that there was going to be a new real life band with a different sound from anything that BanDori! had so far. So, we went for a theme that mixed EDM, electronicore and loud rock. We wanted RAS to have electronic sounds as its main core, different from Roselia’s grand and elegant sound. Although I had experience with EDM, I had never worked with electronicore before and putting these two components together proved to be quite a challenge.
Raychell: So that’s how it all began!
Kikuta: Yes! I had problems in many parts and I received plenty of advice from some people at Bushiroad as well, so it was a lot of trial and error. I believe our team had an overall road map already charted but, at the time we made RAS’ debut song, “R・I・O・T”, RAS hadn’t had any live performances yet, so I remember we had to think about their whole band image from nothing.
ー When compared to the other real life bands, the EDM and loud rock sound is certainly a strong element. This big difference gives them quite a strong personality, doesn’t it?
Kikuta: I believe that none of the other bands would be able to achieve such an aggressive sound.
Raychell: I see. I have never heard about any of this before! This is all so fascinating.
Kikuta: We’ve met in the recording studio before but this is the first time we have a conversation like this so this is also a new experience to me!
ー RAS had a different start as well. Differently from the other bands, they had the real life band established before the characters, giving them a unique origin. Can you say that they were able to showcase more and more things as they had more performances?
Kikuta: The band started off as a backing band, called THE THIRD (temp.), and that’s where the name RAISE A SUILEN comes from.
Raychell: It means to “Raise the curtains”, to stand in the main stage.
Kikuta: Yes, it means that they came from behind the scenes to the main stage. They truly are people with a lot of experience and incredible skills. Because they can be more technical in their performances, they’re able to showcase overwhelming power, which is a completely different presentation from the other bands.
ー So, when the songs are made, do you keep this difference in mind?
Kikuta: Back when I heard the song’s melody I thought I had to use Raychell-san’s singing skills the best I could and that really broadened my horizons. She’s able to express a huge variety of things when singing and once we understood that, we started having some wild ideas. (Laugh)
Raychell: (Laugh)
Kikuta: When we make RAS songs, our expectations are always like “Well since this is Raychell-san, let’s do it like this!”
Raychell: Ah, not at all~
Kikuta: We have complete faith in you!
Raychell: Thank you so much. On that note, were there any moments where you thought “Ah, I should make a song this way-!” when watching our performances?
Kikuta: I made “EXPOSE ‘Burn out!!!’” right after THE THIRD (temp.)’s 2nd LIVE at Akasaka (Mynavi BLITZ AKASAKA). This show marked the addition of Tsumugi-san in the group as well as the start of them as RAISE A SUILEN officially. I asked to be in charge of the composition and arrangement of “A DECLARATION OF XXX”’s coupling track and just before hearing the recording of “A DECLARATION OF XXX”, I found out that she was fluent in English, so I thought it was a waste to have her only as the DJ.
youtube
Raychell: I see!
Kikuta: Back then, I was worried people would say that the band was “only good at performing”. I wanted them to have a little bit more on the entertainment side and Tsumugi-san joined at the perfect timing. I trusted that she could sing, so I thought that perhaps an energetic and carefree performance in English would be interesting. I saw the future in that. I fully believed this would make the band a lot stronger, so I added that rap section. I suppose I could experiment and have more freedom on this song than on the main track.
Raychell: And because of that, we have the RAS signature style today. Thank you so much for wanting to see that girl rap (Laugh). Maybe you saw Riko-chan, Reo-chan and Risa’s performance of Hello, Happy World!'s “Worldwide Treasure!” at our show and that image of her rapping got stuck with you.
Kikuta: Yes, maybe I did watch that performance! Well, there are songs where Tsumugi-san doesn't sing as well as songs where she sings alongside Raychell-san, like their “BRING IT ON” (GigaP) cover, so I suppose you can say our range of possibilities became larger. Also, I don't think settling down as only the DJ goes with her personality either, so I'm glad she gets to sing.
ーRaychell-san, Kikuta-san, do you have any songs that you are especially attached to?
Raychell: Ah, there's a lot of them! Actually, I remember every single thing I've felt during recording. Well, for our debut song, “R・I・O・T”, I remember thinking about controlling the lows and highs because that would change how my voice sounded completely. So, I wondered which voice LAYER would have and after I listened to the finished product I thought, “Ah, so this is how LAYER sounds” for the first time ever.
Kikuta: Oh yes, back when we recorded “R・I・O・T”, your type of voice wasn’t fully concrete yet. But, as you performed more and more and received feedback, LAYER’s voice was perfected. Prior to RAS, the band visuals and characters were announced beforehand and their music would fit that. But, this time, they took the very opposite direction, with the real life band serving as inspiration for the completion of the character’s visuals.
youtube
Raychell: Thinking about it now, I think “R・I・O・T” was where I was the most nervous. Ah, Natsume was right in front of me when we recorded “EXPOSE 'Burn out!!!’”. I remember that she asked me if she could listen to the recording and so, she stayed there. Ah, that’s a very fun memory. (Laugh)
Kikuta: Raychell-san is really good at reacting. For example, when she performed “A DECLARATION OF XXX” live, she suddenly added an ad-lib in the song’s interlude! Ah, she did that in “Invincible Fighter” as well, I think.
youtube
Raychell: That’s right! And I’ve also added things of my own accord in recordings as well. (Laugh)
Kikuta: Ah, don’t worry about it! I think your reacting and arranging skills are amazing. Besides, we are very grateful for you showing us the way you sing these songs.
Raychell: I add an ad-lib at the end of “EXPOSE 'Burn out!!!'” and then I usually add some more things too.
Kikuta: I think RAS is wonderful for transforming the songs in live performances like that. To me, adding those ad-libs at the last chorus in UNSTOPPABLE was the right decision too.
Raychell: Really? I’m glad! I also change the last chorus in R・I・O・T. (Laugh)
Kikuta: The audience has things that they want to hear live. This fever together with the show’s atmosphere increases the amount of these arrangements that truly express the group and I believe that’s a good thing.
Raychell: Originally, I didn't sing Anime songs or Rock songs at all, so, for RAS songs, I had to train myself and think about the issues that I had to solve every time.
Kikuta: You used to sing R&B originally as a solo singer right?
Raychell: That’s right. I was mainly focused on ballads.
Kikuta: I see. I think that you’re able to handle songs from many styles easily because of this solid foundation that you’ve built up until now.
ーKikuta-san, how do you feel about the growth in their performances?
Kikuta: The overall band is growing each and every day in my opinion. I had never been worried about them as performers but I do feel like their smiles during the sets have increased. I guess you could say that they’re able to control things in a better way because they can be so flexible in their performances. They have each found their own role and they have a lot of respect towards one another. Seeing that sense of respect come together makes me think that they have become a really good band.
Raychell: Our connection really transformed because of the characters and their stories. The animations from both the Anime and MVs served as a big reference for our own movements as well.
Kikuta: For RAS, having the Anime so close to the real band’s own steps made for something very fresh in the franchise. Being able to revisit the things that we’ve already seen but in animation form is something really interesting that only they can do.
Raychell: All the shows we had at our beginning were able to be imported to the Anime.
Kikuta: This is nothing other than a new and exciting way of media mixing!
ーAs the venue sizes were gradually increasing, it influenced the way you all faced each show, correct?
Raychell: That’s right. Before getting up on stage, I always carry the feeling of wanting to have a battle. Up until our show in Akasaka (THE THIRD (temp.)’s 2nd LIVE), I didn’t really stir up the audience, but ever since RAS received our name, I’ve been working hard to get them worked up!
Kikuta: It was just an ordinary stir up in the beginning.
Raychell: And now, I go like “Y’all! You better let your heads fly-!!”. (Laugh)
Kikuta: But, I think that’s exactly what makes RAS unique in BanDori. I don’t think any of the other bands can have the same aggressive, or rather, mischievous feeling. I believe this sort of instigation is loved by Rock fans and I also think that it’s something that the audience looks for. In things like professional wrestling, it’s necessary to have a “bad guy” or “anti-hero” role and RAS takes that position in BanDori.
Raychell: RAS’ creator, Ayana Yuniko-sensei has said that RAS takes that “bad guy” role as well.
Kikuta: Because that bad guy exists, Poppin’Party and Roselia can shine brighter. No band other than RAS can make that happen. I also think that RAS lyrics are things that can’t be sung by any other band as well.
Raychell: Every time I talk to other cast members, they always say “RAS lyrics are so difficult, aren’t they~?” (Laugh). There’s always a lot of really strong wording to showcase RAS’ blazing fight spirit.
Kikuta: CHU²’s words always stir things up and I think that gives the band a really nice balance.
ーAlthough it’s a bit lawless, things are never really too bad, right?
Kikuta: That’s right! I think that’s thanks to Natsume-san and Raychell-san. If everyone acted like CHU², the whole band would be chaos, wouldn’t it? (laugh). Still, she makes the band stand out and all the other characters have their own charm as well.
Raychell: The balance between all 5 members of RAS is really nice, isn’t it?
Kikuta: They’re like a squad! I think that’s really nice and suited for a band.
ー I see! Raychell-san, are there any songs outside of RAS that make you think “I wish I could sing this!” or “I wonder how this would sound in my voice”?
Raychell: Back when we were THE THIRD (temp.) and also in our early days, we used to perform songs from other bands, like “That is How I Roll!” from Afterglow-san!
youtube
Kikuta: Although the collaborations with guests left a big impression, that’s how things were in the beginning.
Raychell: Well, now we have more original songs so we hardly ever do these covers anymore, but there are still songs that I want to sing. Afterglow-san’s songs are always fun to cover. Some songs from Glitter*Green-san, Pastel*Palettes-san and Hello, Happy World!-san makes me think “Ah, I would bring this out for this song!”. We’ve had joint concerts with Roselia-san and Morfonica-san where we played together but there still hasn’t been one with PoPiPa-san, right?
Kikuta: That’s true, you haven’t had a joint concert yet.
Raychell: That’s why I’m really excited to face them next February in BanG Dream! 11th☆LIVE! I really love Double Rainbow!
Kikuta: Wait, are you saying that because it’s my song? (Laugh)
Raychell: No, no! (Laugh). I found out that you wrote this song today! I was so surprised! How can you write these girl-like melodies, Kikuta-san?
Kikuta: This is part of my everyday job. I have to make songs in many different genres, coming from RAS-ish Loud Rock to Pastel*Palettes-ish cutesy songs.
Raychell: I like Pep meets Step from Pastel*Palettes-san, and I also love Kyouen Red×Violet from Roselia-san and Afterglow-san!
Kikuta: Ah, this song really has that battle energy.
Raychell: Isn’t this song something that I would sing? (Laugh)
Kikuta: It is! On that note, I don’t think I can imagine you singing PoPiPa songs.
Raychell: I guess that’s true! But, I love singing them on Karaoke! (Laugh)
Kikuta: I want to hear that someday! Well, now that I think about it, Aimi-san has a very distinct voice, doesn’t she? Since her voice has a unique charm to it, I can’t really imagine someone other than her singing PoPiPa songs.
[...]
ーYour dreams reach far and wide, don’t they?
Kikuta: […] To me, RAS’ number 1 goal is to go abroad. They do have some popularity already but I think it would be nice if they were more popular abroad as well.
Raychell: There are many foreign RAS fans on social media! I always receive comments! Especially fans from other parts of Asia. I receive many messages saying things like “I can’t really attend any shows but I’ll always support you!”.
Kikuta: They have been to many festivals in the country as well. RAS really left their mark in many places, right? RAS was trending in social media when they performed at SUMMER SONIC 2022 this year so I think many people got to know them in these spaces.
Raychell: There’s a line from R・I・O・T that says “(Our sound) will take over the world”. This phrase represents our main goal. We’ll work even harder towards that goal!

WTYP: The Shandor Building, Part 4
[Do you like the colour of the fanfic? This is long and if you expand it you're gonna get the whole thing, because Tumblr hates you. Don't say I didn't warn you!]

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3
Part 4: Freaky Shit
[Beware of strong language, mention of all kinds of death, gore, and Lovecraftian horror.]
[On the current slide, the Activate Windows logo has changed to read “All Hail Gozer” and remains that way for the rest of the episode.]
R: Might be some firmware… What the hell was that?
A: Oh, that’s just the Tumblr app, it came preinstalled…
L: Cursed phone.
A: Yeah, pretty much…
R: No, out in the hallway. Looked like a dog.
L [charmed again]: Aww. Where?
A: Sorry, hang on, got another “ask”…
R: I’ll be right back.
[scraping sound, footsteps, door opening and closing]
A [amused]: “Choose the form of your destroyer.” Oh, that’s cute. What should I say…?
L: “Death by Chocolate.” No, wait. “Snoopy.”
A [typing]: T-H-A-T… A-S-S… Ohh. [annoyed] Where’s the peach emoji on this thing? These are all symbols from the Lesser Key of Solomon…
L: That one looks kinda like an ass.
A: I think it’s a minor Duke of Hell. Still, you’re not wrong…
[door opening and closing]
R [nonplussed]: It’s, uh, it’s not a dog.
A: What is it?
R: It’s a gargoyle. Or a grotesque. Like the ones on the front of the building. There’s two of ‘em, actually.
L: Do they want tummy rubs, Rocz? If they want tummy rubs, they are dogs. And if you touch their tummy and die, they’re cats. This is science!
R: I have no idea if they want tummy rubs. …I fed one a doughnut.
L: Aww.
A: That can’t be good for it.
R: I dunno. They were in the break room eating the doughnuts, so I assume they eat doughnuts.
L: Rocz, I eat Wawa hoagies, and they are definitely not good for me.
A: A duck will go to town on some bread, but you’re not supposed to feed it to them.
R: He took it right outta my hand and said “Hail Gozer,” which makes me wonder if Milkshake and Pizza Boy could’ve spoken English to me, if they really wanted…
L: Dear God, you need a human roommate…
A: Frozen peas.
L: Pardon?
A: I’ve seen a GIF of it, you’re supposed to feed the ducks frozen peas. The truly terrifying thing is, by the time they’re done eating, the water is just filthy. They look cute, but I wouldn’t want one to bite me.
R: I’m not gonna tell a gargoyle it’s supposed to eat frozen peas.
A: I suppose not if you don’t want it to bite you.
L: “It”? Did you ask them their pronouns, Rocz?
R: I didn’t, but… They seemed busy.
A: Eating the doughnuts?
R: Yes. Also, opening some kinda gateway.
A [hesitantly]: I think I’ll… delete that post. Yes.
L: Any difference in the meat bouquet?
R: It’s kinda… singing? I guess? Kind of a howling noise.
A: Oh, like the portal.
L: Dang it, I was hoping for salami.
R: Alice, have you involved us in the summoning of a dark god or is the building just making us crazy?
L: Crazy isn’t this cool or fun, Rocz.
A: Yes, it’s much more… It’s just rather depressing. It’s terrifying, I’ll grant you terrifying, but not in a way that gets you a new iPhone…
[door slams]
D [in the studio, approaching the mics]: Oh, fuck, oh, shit…
D [text over slide]: THAT’S ME.
L: Hey, Dev. We’ll get back on topic in a sec and I swear this one won’t go over an hour…
R: I don’t know about that.
A: What’s going on?
D: My awesome state-of-the-art control room is filling up with pink slime — to the point where I can’t even reach any of the buttons!
R [relieved]: Oh, thank God.
D: …and it’s all over my fucking shoes!
[squeaking, squelching]
L: Sounds like Vigo the Carpathian again.
A: Oh, just Vigo.
L: Want me to deal with him? I’ll deal with him. He’s a little bitch. I’ve already had Vigo, I’m immune.
A [bored]: We’ve all had Vigo.
R: He’s like covid.
L: Yeah, he won’t bump you off unless you’re already sick. Or a Republican.
R: But you repeat yourself.
L: Yeah.
A [brightly]: You know that time I embarrassed myself on social media? That was definitely Vigo and not me!
R: I thought maybe you took an Ambien.
A: Wait, which time are you thinking of?
L: Vigo the Carpathian got me banned from Twitter.
R: We are, all of us, Vigo, at all times.
A: How dare you hold us responsible for our actions.
D [mournfully]: There’s a really cool audio mixer in there and I didn’t even get a chance to try it!
L: Give me two seconds, I’ll deal with him…
D: …I even had a button I could press to drop boiling lava on you if you got off-topic, but I didn’t use it because I’m a merciful God.
A [consolingly]: Well, that’s very sensitive of you, Dev. Thank you. Really.
D: Liam, get me my lava button back. I need that lava button! It’s all I’ve ever wanted as an editor and a human being!
L: Don’t even worry about it!
[door opens, howling noise, door slams]
L: It’s not Vigo.
R: Aw, crap.
A: Who is it?
L: It’s a guy, or… I’m not sure. Kinda in between.
R: Could still be Vigo.
D: Yeah, just in someone nonbinary.
A: Describe them.
[door opens, howling noise, door slams]
L: …Hot?
A: You mean as in sexy or on fire?
L: Both, kinda.
R: Definitely not Vigo.
[muttering, general agreement]
A: Now, I… I… I’m just guessing, but…Does this person happen to resemble, um, a minor Duke of Hell? With a nice ass?
L: I’m not looking again, Alice, they’re almost at the…
[snapping noise, explosion, thuds and raining debris, howling noise increases]
L: Ow! Fuck!
R [raises voice to be heard above the howling]: Hey! Hey! That was uncalled-for, sir, or madam, or whatever! And my friend wants their control room back!

Ahhh. Home sweet home. I hope the reality of the place isn't too disappointing? Winter time is especially beautiful here. The cold weather may be exceptionally harsh, but the stark landscape looks dreamy as the usually drab barren hills become blindingly white with a deep flawless snow cover. The constant wind keeps the snow drifting swirling up in little flurries
Try to keep the doors shut, especially the front door. It can be very drafty since the foundation began slanting inward. Well - recent as in less than a few decades ago. I need to re-weather and reglaze strip all the doors and windows in the place. I promise the place really can be a home. Lucille and I have just been away for so long, we're behind on maintenance.
Not that the hole in the ceiling is a result of our maintenance inconsistencies. No no. That's been there a long long time - or rather the roof HASN'T been there for quite a long long time.
We do have some pests. The attic is infested with very large mottled black moths - mariposa de la muerte. The Black Witch Moth is not native England, and I have no idea how they came here nor why they've decided to stay. I imagine they chose the attic attracted to the light from my candles that burn while I work in my studio. It's so cold and dark here that once they found a place to roost they stayed, and ever since they've not experienced a day bright enough or warm enough to feel revitalized to move on. You needn't worry, my darling. They're too sleepy to notice you walking by if you ever venture up to my workshop to visit me and see what I'm working on.
If the moths do rouse from their slumber, I don't want you to fear. I know they can look like bats with a six inch wingspan sometimes, but I promise you that the bats we do have are only interested in the moths and rare mouse.
The bats hibernate most of the year because it's so treacherously cold and desolate - a long harsh winter season here - much of their food source is burrowed deep in slumber as well.
I know this large place seems frigid, but I promise that with a large warm fire blazing the place can feel cozy and intimate. All the more reason to stay cuddled up in bed wrapped in each other's arms, is it not? So best to not wander too much and just stay put in your room where it's warm and safe. Don't worry; only I have a key, so nothing can break through that heavy bedroom door but me.
And Lucille. She has a set of keys as well, of course.
But nothing else would dare come into your room uninvited.
Which brings up a few other things I need to discuss with you:
We do also have a bit of a ghost problem. It's not really what I'd call an infestation.... Especially since that suggests that we could call an exterminator or something. LOL. What a ridiculous, correct? Can you imagine one of the locals here identifying their occupation as a Ghostbuster. Absurdly comical. Just picture them walking around the house with a little trap and some bait - like a cup of tea and a little finger sandwich?
No, unfortunately we just have to live with them. But like any bully or brat, if you ignore them, they'll get bored and leave you alone. Mostly.
My mother on the other hand..... Just as activating dead as she was when she was alive. Fortunately I am finally at a place where I don't bloody damn what that evil old woman wants.
Well... Except... [Deep breath] Sharing a bathroom with her is not pleasant. I waited until now to warn you about her. Forgive me for the subterfuge. I honestly could not risk you having any second thoughts. I only hope that your love for me is as strong as my love for you and will be worth the annoyance putting up with my mother.
Now I know the house is huge, but we all still need to share the bathroom so please be cognizant of how long you soak. My mother will sit in that bloody tub for hours, not a single ounce of thought to consider the passage of time - so irritating. Sometimes I think she does it on purpose just to be a pest like all the rest. They have nothing else to do but terrorize us all day long. Incessantly!
Crimson Peak is SO fucking funny when they first get to the house and Hiddles is like. Oh yeah forget to mention, giant hole in the roof. Also the floor is rotten, someday the whole foundation will collapse. And don’t be alarmed if the pipes start bleeding! It’s just that the very ground beneath our feet is oozing red liquid, absolutely drenched with it, as though the entire house is bleeding and bloodstained, as though the very earth our family legacy is built upon were one great open wound.
I fucking love Gothic settings. Don’t worry about it Edith, welcome to your very normal and inhabitable house.

gear
The term "gear" is widely used across different industries and activities, often referring to equipment, machinery, or tools essential for specific tasks. In various contexts—whether in sports, outdoor adventures, military, or mechanics—gear represents the foundational items that ensure efficiency, safety, and performance.
In the world of mechanics and engineering, gear plays a critical role. It consists of toothed wheels that work in harmony to transmit torque and alter the speed or direction of motion. These mechanical elements are fundamental in vehicles, manufacturing systems, and countless machines that power modern industry. For example, in a car, gear shifting is crucial for regulating speed and ensuring smooth operation. Manual and automatic transmissions both rely on complex arrangements of gears to function optimally.
Beyond engineering, gear is integral to countless daily routines and hobbies. In outdoor settings such as hiking or camping, the right equipment is essential not only for comfort but also for survival. Items like tents, backpacks, hiking boots, and thermal clothing fall under the broad category of outdoor gear. Having quality, durable materials ensures that individuals are well-prepared to handle diverse environments, from mountainous terrains to dense forests.
Similarly, athletes and sports enthusiasts depend heavily on gear suited to their specific disciplines. Cyclists rely on helmets, gloves, and padded shorts; football players need cleats, pads, and uniforms; and swimmers use goggles and specialized swimwear. Proper gear can enhance performance, protect the user from injury, and provide a psychological boost by creating a sense of readiness and professionalism.
In the military and tactical world, gear holds exceptional importance. From uniforms and boots to night-vision goggles and communication devices, soldiers rely on highly specialized equipment designed to withstand extreme conditions. This type of gear not only provides physical protection but also supports strategic efficiency in demanding environments. Tactical gear is often engineered with modularity and versatility in mind, allowing soldiers to adapt quickly to ever-changing operational needs.
For tech enthusiasts and professionals, gear can also refer to gadgets, accessories, and hardware used in daily life or work. This includes everything from laptops and headphones to cameras, microphones, and lighting systems. A content creator, for instance, might invest in high-end video gear to produce professional-quality content. Similarly, musicians use a range of instruments and studio gear to compose and record their work.
Even in fashion, gear finds relevance. Streetwear and performance wear often blend function and style, catering to a lifestyle where appearance and utility intersect. Clothing brands now produce lines specifically tailored for people who want practical, rugged gear that also looks good in urban settings.
The modern consumer often turns to online resources when looking to purchase or learn about different kinds of gear. Websites like gear serve as comprehensive hubs for reviews, recommendations, and product insights. Whether you're searching for camping equipment, workout gear, or tactical accessories, such platforms simplify the decision-making process by offering comparisons and expert opinions.
Choosing the right gear requires attention to several factors, including quality, purpose, comfort, and cost. Materials and design are central to this process. High-performance items are typically constructed using lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant materials. Ergonomic design is another key consideration, particularly for items that need to be worn or carried for extended periods.
Durability is especially crucial when selecting gear for rugged or unpredictable conditions. Whether it's a hiker braving the elements or a technician working in a high-risk environment, dependable gear can make a significant difference. Reliability and longevity are often worth the investment, as poor-quality products can fail when needed most.
Another aspect to consider is customization and compatibility. Many types of gear come with features that allow users to adjust them to their specific needs. For example, camera gear often includes modular attachments, while military gear might have MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) systems for adding or removing pouches and compartments.
Sustainability is also becoming a more prominent concern. Environmentally conscious consumers are now seeking out brands that use recycled materials or adhere to ethical manufacturing practices. Eco-friendly gear helps reduce environmental impact while still meeting the functional requirements of the user.
Storage and maintenance should not be overlooked either. Properly storing and caring for your gear extends its lifespan and ensures it performs well when required. Cleaning and routine inspections can prevent wear and tear from escalating into serious issues, especially in equipment that undergoes heavy use.
Finally, it’s essential to stay informed about new advancements. Innovations in materials science, design, and technology continue to improve gear across all sectors. Websites like gear often provide up-to-date information about the latest trends and products, helping users stay ahead of the curve.
In conclusion, gear encompasses a wide array of items essential to many facets of life, from recreation and sport to work and personal safety. Selecting the appropriate tools and equipment requires careful thought, as well as awareness of the latest innovations and best practices. With the right gear, individuals can enhance their experience, perform at their best, and remain protected in whatever challenges they face.

Damn yo, these guys are talking about watergate and dont bring up hughes? Sheesh
Cmon lads....try this one.
the burglars' target wasn’t ‘inside information on a presidential campaign’, but rather inside information on the chair of the Democratic National Committee, Lawrence O’Brien. And they wanted it to protect one of Nixon’s darkest secrets: his financial and political ties to one of America’s richest industrialists, Howard Hughes. Hughes personified the deep state: he was infamous for his secrecy, for his back-room manipulation of politicians and government agencies, and for making billions of dollars from his work for the Pentagon and intelligence community as their budgets soared through the Cold War and Vietnam era.
Nixon was his kind of politician: willing to trade favors for power, and above all, committed to growing the national security state and enriching its private-sector partners. As we will see, Watergate was in part the product of secret payoffs by Hughes to protect his business empire, and a frantic effort by Nixon to head off potential exposure of their relationship lest it kill his chances for re-election
O’Brien was a key target of the White House because he had business and political relationships of his own with top Hughes aides, putting Nixon all the more at risk. It’s a story that tells us much about the corrupting power of personal and corporate wealth and how it can severely distort our democratic institutions and legal order. It’s a story that sheds light on Watergate as an outgrowth of secret financial deals and political maneuvers in the ‘deep state’.
Here’s how Dean described their almost speechless reaction a year later to President Nixon: I came over and Liddy laid out a million dollar plan that was the most incredible thing I have ever laid my eyes on. All in codes, and involved black bag operations, kidnapping, providing prostitutes to weaken the opposition, bugging, mugging teams. It was just an incredible thing. . . .
Hughes was also a megalomaniac who told Maheu, ‘You just remember that . . . I, Howard Hughes, can buy any man in the world, or I can destroy him.’ Certainly he bought more than a few politicians and government officials. During World War II, Hughes spent $170,000 to ply Air Force officers – including President Roosevelt’s son Elliott – with women and booze, which helped him obtain $40 million in military contracts. In later years his political agent would pull wads of cash out of a Las Vegas casino to pass out to politicians ranging from presidents to local officials in Nevada, where Hughes moved in late 1966. Hughes’s financial relationship with Nixon began with campaign contributions in 1946 and blossomed during the anti-communist witch hunts of the late 1940s and early 1950s. For example, in 1952, Nixon lauded Howard Hughes and his studio, RKO Pictures, for taking legal action against screenwriter Paul Jarrico who had refused to answer questions before Nixon’s House Un-American Activities Committee. Nixon declared that Hughes deserved the ‘approval of every man and woman who believes that forces of subversion must be wiped out’. Their relationship became really serious in late 1956. That year, at Vice President Nixon’s personal request, Hughes provided a loan of $205,000 – worth nearly two million dollars today – on the flimsiest of collateral to Nixon’s brother Donald using lawyers and accountants to cloak the transaction. Don owned a drive-in hamburger joint in Los Angeles; unfortunately, his signature ‘Nixonburger' never achieved the popularity of the Big Mac and his venture failed. None of that mattered to Hughes, who told a top aide when approving the loan, ‘it’s a chance to cement a relationship’. Just weeks later the Internal Revenue Service reversed a ruling on a dubious tax shelter engineered by Hughes, saving him millions of dollars. Not long after, Hughes also received favorable rulings by the Civil Aeronautics Board and Justice Department on critical regulatory and antitrust matters worth millions of dollars more.
Musk is nothing if not unoriginal 🙄

Nixon and his advisers blamed their extremely narrow loss to Kennedy on the Hughes loan story. The same scandal haunted Nixon again in his 1962 gubernatorial campaign in California. In fact, Gov. Edmund Brown, father of the current governor, reportedly ‘credited his election victory’ over Nixon that year to a magazine article about the Hughes loan. That should have been the end of it, but Nixon and Hughes had an irresistible affinity for each other – power attracted money and vice versa. In 1968, Hughes told his top aide, Robert Maheu that he saw a special opportunity – ‘a really valid possibility of a Republican victory’ that ‘could be realized under our sponsorship and supervision every inch of the way’. Hughes made a disguised but legal donation of at least $50,000 to the Nixon campaign, and asked Maheu to see Nixon ‘as my special confidential emissary’. This wasn’t charity. As with his 1956 loan, Hughes expected a handsome return for his money. Hughes told Maheu, ‘If we select Nixon, then he, I know for sure, knows the facts of life'
