I am once again asking people to consider the Ace Attorney playthrough by Save Data Team

Featuring: an actual lawyer, a group of 3 friends who genuinely like the game/story and at least one is playing blind, so many running jokes, my new headcanon Miles Edgeworth voice, unhinged questions from Ohio's bar exams, genuine interest in the context of the original Japanese version, increasingly absurd stream funding goals, canon Narumitsu, and much more

it starts off like a standard "that's not how law works!" series but do not be fooled. It's very good

Here's a fun highlight reel comp, or, this one from Case 5/Rise From the Ashes to see the gang in full swing of things

[mumblelard]

thank you for your service, fiskars eight inch non-stick titanium softgrip scissors

you lived, ready-to-hand, in the hone slot of my knife block and together, for the last six years and seventy five days, we have opened bags and boxes, snipped ties and tape, shaped paper and cloth. sometimes though, i asked more of you, we trimmed the woody stems of herbs, we pruned the branches of plants, and as your final task, we cut through the rib cage of a spatchcocking spring chicken. i tried to repair your broken handle, but it was not to be. for now your slot sits empty. you will be missed

The Orpheus Family Reunion

One day while Ash and Olimar are visiting, the manor gets an uninvited guest.

No, it's not the escape crew yet. Instead it's Daffy Duck, Door-to-door salesman and Amateur Inventor, looking to get a job at Styx Technologies... which isn't actually a company yet, and Tulip honestly isn't sure how Daffy even knew about the Styx brand given she hasn't actually marketed or sold anything with it beyond a few commissions for people she knows personally.

He isn't even from this universe, as evidenced by him having a Donandan Kirlia named Lulu (Donandan Kirlia are Electric/Dragon Because Reasons and can have either Synchronize or Rough Skin) when the Donanda region only exists in Avatar Ash's world specifically.

Anyway, after a few minutes of everybody being trapped in a Looney Tunes short one of the walls explodes, burying the duck in rubble and revealing the Escape Squad (who really need a new name now that they've accomplished that goal) plus Daisy, Archie, a bunch of anime characters (mostly girls of course) with glowing blue outlines, and a captured and unmasked Aite, who most of the group is quick to realize looks like an older, scarred Tulip with dyed hair, which Andrew confirms is because she is.

Anyway, Andrew's here to get his daughter and his house back and kick out everybody else. They can give him what he wants willingly, or...

To demonstrate exactly what they mean by "or" Francis has one of his drawings attack Ash, who just barely manages to halt the red-and-black blur with a quick Protect. That character turns out to be Ranma Saotome, in girl form of course, who's implied to have been the first character Francis drew with his Inkweaver 2.0 and who would've landed a just-barely-subsonic kick squarely into Ash's throat if his reaction was even a bit slower.

Anyway, they're obviously not going to go down without a fight, so the brawl is on! It starts with Alice trying to turn the security system on the invaders, only to find that Tippitron is already in the middle of infiltrating it (hence why no one was alerted to a group of wanted criminals showing up) so those two are going to be occupied for a while.

Ash and Ranma are also in a one-on-one martial arts duel that nobody else can keep up with.

Spamton can't just flatten everybody with his Virus Powers because he's stuck dealing with Waypoint.

SMG7 is managing to give a lot of the anime horde and Lady Rose a run for their money with her extremely weaponized wheelchair. She's assisted by Ash's Sgrub, who's doing his best.

Olimar and any of Ash's Pokemon that aren't busy fighting the anime characters are trying to rescue Aite from Marianne and an increasingly reluctant Archie (since they otherwise can't really contribute to the battle).

Dale gets cornered by a vengeful Andrew in Honeytrap form, which is both terrifying and a bit awkward, with the ghosts (and an admittedly much more effective Lulu) trying to save him since Tulip's a bit busy trying to take down Francis so he can't keep adding to his waifu army and hasn't noticed.

Nermal is in a fight with Ash's Hisuian Lilligant and gets the upper hand for a bit by invoking the Ganondorf Suavamente meme (he's Harmonian of course he favors song-based memes)

Daffy digs himself out, sees what's going on, and gleefully decides that a home invasion is the perfect opportunity to show what his brilliant creations can bring to the (currently nonexistent, I remind you) company. In his defense he really is helping... for the most part.

SMG10's attempt at vengeance gets interrupted partway through (she managed to mess Daisy up pretty bad but was aiming for something permanent) when a third party (fourth if you count all the chaos Daffy's causing) joins the fray; Liana, who's realized that every single living Orpheus is in one place and has decided that nobody is leaving this property alive!

Which is. You know. A pretty high-stakes problem given the three Avatars present.

So along with fighting each other everybody who can even touch a ghost is now trying to get rid of the ridiculously powerful vengeful spirit.

While this is where things look like they're going horribly wrong, it's actually where they're starting to turn around.

Sgrub defeats enough of the Anime characters that he evolves into Roughiant and gets to be the one to knock out Rose which is pretty cool.

Ash eventually manages to hit Ranma with an improvised Scald using a pond in the backyard and Blaze Kick, which changes her into his boy form... and somehow turns him into a real person and frees him from Francis's control, presumably because he's no longer the drawing that Francis made in the first place. I have no idea why Ash thought it would work like that or how he was right.

Alice and Tippitron have been stuck in a stalemate so far, which is rectified when Daffy finds a Suspicious Drive in his briefcase that he doesn't remember putting there and impulsively plugs into Tulip's phone, which causes Alice to evolve into a Porymod and suddenly have a significant advantage over her opponent.

The ghosts unfortunately had to help deal with the one opponent they could actually touch since their poltergeist antics weren't really doing much against a straight-up demon from a universe with some frankly absurd power scaling, so for a bit it's just been Dale and Lulu against Honeytrap, and it isn't going well (not that it was to begin with), only for Ash's Gardevoir and a recently freed up Tulip (Ash and Ranma had jumped in to help with Fancis and took over there when the three of them noticed this mess) to swoop in. Lulu is absolutely starstruck by the alternate form of her eventual final stage.

All the spectral bullshit that's happening upstairs gets Leo's attention, and he's ultimately the one to defeat Liana by busting out of his box so he can drag her down into it with him. I don't know why he decided to do that, I just figured it'd be an interesting way to take her out. And I thought it'd be fun to make everybody go "wait, shit, he can do that!?"

Also, Tulip uses this opportunity to lock the box with her Keyblade just in case either of them get any ideas. She would've done it earlier but for once her absentmindedness was beneficial.

Though, Liana does manage one last trick before she's locked away, sensing the hints of death magic within Ranma and using the last of her power to snag a bit of it and plant it in Archie. She's got no idea what it does, but it's death magic so it must be horrible, right?

And with her out of the way, everybody can focus on the Escape Squad again, who are significantly worse off than the manor group, mostly because the guy supplying their superior numbers both ran out of ink and got the shit kicked out of them. They all get corralled onto the driveway and Tulip manages to pull off a Trinity Limit with Ash and Ranma that sends them all blasting off.

Anyway, now all that's left are repairs and medical attention (not that that's any different from a usual Tuesday really), an explanation from Aite of what exactly her deal is, congradulating Roughiant and Alice on their evolutions, and figuring out what to do with Ranma and Daffy. I mean, Ranma's literally got nothing right now, and he's clearly not gonna just disappear like the other Inkweaver drawings. And Daffy and Lulu did give them a lot of help when they didn't really have to and Daffy's inventions are certainly impressive, but that doesn't change the fact that Tulip just doesn't have the tech company that he thinks she does yet, and doesn't feel ready to create it currently (even if that is one of her future plans).

In Ranma's case there's the simple solution of just staying with them. I mean they're the only people he knows right now, he's already good enough friends with two of them to pull off a magic-of-friendship-based super-move, and it's not like Tulip doesn't have the space.

Daffy's situation is... admittedly more complicated, albeit less pressing, and I'm not actually sure what to do with him.

You know I love this business and fashion reporting. Check out my article on what's happening in Milan next week. The link is in the source.

Lal is stalking “Daddy” (Brent Spiner), and all kinds of weird, dark hilarity ensue. You don't necessarily need to be a fan of Star Trek, either. He does explain who Lal is for those like myself who've never seen the episode.

‘Alarming’ rise in Americans with long Covid symptoms | Long Covid | The Guardian

March 2024

The rate of adults currently experiencing long Covid has not been this high since November 2022; the greatest height since CDC began tracking the illness was 7.6% in June and July 2022. The “estimates represent just a snapshot in time”, making it difficult to identify the role of different factors like recent surges, vaccination rates, new variants and survey methods, said Dave Daigle, a spokesperson for the CDC.

...

There are notable differences across geography, with the highest rates reported in North Dakota, Kentucky, West Virginia, Alaska and Maine, and the lowest rates in Hawaii, Pennsylvania and Wyoming.

...

The rise in long Covid cases is particularly worrisome because “we still don’t know all of the things that long Covid does, how it does it, and why,” said Lara Jirmanus, a clinical instructor at Harvard Medical School and a member of the People’s CDC. Ignoring Covid cases now is “hubris that almost assumes that we can see the future”, Jirmanus said. “Nobody knows what long Covid will do five years from now. I don’t think it’s wise to throw all caution to the wind.”

...

The advice from the agency to leave isolation after symptoms have begun improving flies in the face of scientific evidence and will probably lead to more spread of the virus and more cases of long Covid, experts said.

Paranormal (Data Dump) 1

I have seen multiple strange things in the sky that do not belong. I have one super incredible UFO event that is burnt into my mind to share with you. First before I get you all wondering what happened and making you need to find out what happened, I want to go back to the “Falling Star Phenomena” again.

*

I have seen the “Falling Star Phenomena” a few times in New Hampshire. I was usually outside in the back yard or walking on the road when I saw these phenomena on theses different occasions. I remember a significant time when I had seen this. I remember I was young and in middle school. I had a telescope. I was using my telescope to look at the stars and moon on the back porch. I remember it was a chilly night because the metal of the telescope was cold to the touch. After about an hour, my dad told me to bring the telescope in because it was too late. So I did. When I put the telescope back in the bag I was ready to go back inside the house. Then a bright light behind me grabbed my attention. There I saw, just like in the Dominican Republic, a bright light pulsing. The object spun in a clockwise rotation heading down vertically as it continued to spin. Then the light went out. I stood in amazement. Then my dad called me back in the house. I hastily scampered inside our home with my telescope in the bag.

*

One clear and frigid bitter New Hampshire night, my mom and I came back from picking me up at the end of martial arts class. There was snow on the ground when we arrived at home in the minivan. There was about six inches of hard snow. The snow was as if it had an icy glaze over it.

It was about 8:00PM. I got dressed to play in the snow. The moon lit up the yard and the snow sparkled from the moon’s reflection. I enjoyed making crunching sounds with my boots crushing the hard snow. It wasn’t very long until I saw it.

I was outside for 4-5 minutes and I saw this thing! It flew from one corner of the property to the other side of the property. The object was all black. It reminded me of a racecar driver wearing a helmet and racing suit. However from the shape of the helmet shape to the body I saw what looked like at least a 12 inch long neck. It had trapezoid wings that appeared fixed. The long side of the wings was toward the front and the short side toward the rear. The human body shape reminded me of a bowling pin shape. It was about 6 feet long and had a wing span of 6 feet. It flew just above the tree tops as if it was trying to avoid radar.

*

Now for what you have been waiting for! The super incredible UFO story! Hooray! It was dark and stormy! Water was jetting off the roof of my family’s house. The water was slapping the ground. Booommmkkkkkk! Lightning flashed and the power went out. I grabbed the battery operated lantern, so I could see. The light emitting diodes brightened up the room. As soon as the storm started, it stopped. We were still without power and it was nighttime. I decided to walk on the road outside, now that the storm has passed.

It smelled, felt, and looked like a tropical rainforest, even though it was just summertime after a storm in New Hampshire. I walked up and down the road a few times watching out for puddles. I walked past my house again and something flew over me. A UFO! It was bullet shaped and the bright light was radiating from the rounded part of the bullet shape in the front. The flat side of this bullet UFO was dark and had no light emitting from this section. It flew very low over the trees. I believed it was flying below radar detection. It flew from the direction of Pease International Tradeport. Also there was no noise from the UFO. I was so excited I ran back home and told my parents! Then as I rushed back outside and walked up the street. I saw a police car rush with its blue strobes on headed down the road towards Pease International Tradeport. I figured I should stay here a little while and see I if I would see anything else cool. I did!

I saw a convoy. The convoy consisted of one sedan in the front, a flatbed truck with its headlights off, a SUV only with its positioning lights on, and another sedan that looked the same as the first. All the vehicles including the flatbed were painted black. The convoy was headed in the opposite direction of the police car about 4-5 minutes after I had seen the police car. The convoy was never with the police car or headed in the same direction as the police car when I saw it. As soon as the convoy past, I heard a buzzing like sound. Then it got louder. Chahhp-Chahhp-Chahhp! I saw two helicopters heading in a similar direction of the convoy with spotlights pointed at the ground. It appeared that the helicopters were black. I couldn’t tell if there were markings or not on them. It was really dark so I can’t say for sure. However it sounded like there were 4 or 5 helicopters coming from all directions, but I only saw the two.

Then it clicked in my mind. Somebody was planning on retrieving this UFO! I waited for about 15 minutes and saw nothing. I went home. The first thing I did when I got back to the house was that I drew a picture of the bullet shaped UFO I had seen.

I have seen many UFOs. Most of them have been in Florida. In fact, I have traveled the world in search of paranormal phenomena. However, for some reason, I keep experiencing the paranormal within the state of Florida more than anywhere else I have traveled. I had traveled to Florida when I lived in New Hampshire and I experienced the paranormal on vacation. Now I live in Florida and I have had some of the most bizarre stuff happen to me. I would walk outside from 8:00PM to 10:00PM every night including when it rained. I noticed that nobody else would walk outside at this time. My belief is that because I continued this routine, I was able to see more UFOs than the average person.

*

From October 2015 – December 2015 I would see UFOs almost every single night. I saw these 3 foot long, straight, penny diameter cylinders of pure white light. I had seen lots of them. There were some above cloud level looking like tiny flashes of white light, some below cloud level, and many below tree top level. In fact one came so close to me it was about six inches away from my nose. That particular one light was where I got the estimate for its size. I noticed this particular one coming off the ocean, over the beach, and over the boardwalk where this thing could have hit me in the head! I was walking on the boardwalk and I was shocked by the near miss.

*

One night, I drove to the boardwalk with my cell phone and camera. My original plan was to take pictures and video of these things. I had seen them so often that I knew they would be there. I parked my car and I got this feeling. I felt like I would be disrespecting these things if I took pictures and video of them so I left my stuff in the car. Immediately as I climbed the stairs, three of these lights flew over me as if saying thank you for not taking any pictures or video. I got a warm fuzzy feeling. I continued my walk with excitement. I kept seeing them. I ended up seeing more than a dozen of them throughout the night. The most I had seen at once was four at one time that night. These four flew right over the gazebo attached to the boardwalk. Around this time I got the idea to start recording the dates I saw stuff.

*

On 8/21/15 I was walking near my family’s house. It was unusually dry inside my nostrils. It felt like my capillaries could crack at any moment, resulting in a nosebleed. I had been walking outside for an hour. It was around 9:00 PM when I saw something shocking and puzzling. A small aircraft like a UFO, I had seen this night. It had the front wings of a glider and the rear of a F-5 fighter jet with its distinctive duel narrow afterburners. The craft did not use the afterburners when I saw it. In fact, I would call this UFO slow. It flew faster than a bird, but slower than a propeller plane. I could hear a whining noise after it had passed me. It sounded like an electric motor.

It flew from east to west over the backyards of nearby homes. Even though it was night time, the street lights lit the area revealing the UFOs color. It was definitely dark blue, not black. It had a matte finish and there were no markings on it at all. It was 40-50 feet in the air. The wingspan was 4 times the size I was tall about 24 feet from wing tip to wing tip. Then something really weird happened. What happened next made me classify this as a UFO. A static like white light came from the tail and engulfed the UFO to the nose, as the UFO was flying forward. As soon as the light covered the object, the light went out and the object disappeared from view. Did I just witness some advanced optical camouflage? Was the UFO some kind of projection? Did the UFO disappear into a portal? I do not know the answers, but nothing could prepare me for what I saw the following night!

Me after trying to explain for two days, on and off, that if you delete the first quarter's data, you cannot use the year's total value for an unrelated KPI to figure out what that value might have been: Y'all are draining me on a spiritual level... Where are the cameras? Bring them out! I'm ready!

[maester-of-spreadsheets]

So I’m still doing my “add at least one song from every country in the world to my playlist” resolution. The Spotify autocomplete function/algorithm in general is really reminding me of one of the reasons I wanted to do it.

Basically if you search for a relatively well off country, first results will be something like “restaurant/tavern/date night music from [country].” Countries with lower GDPs or recent wars or what have you will generally get you podcast episodes about Why is [Country] So Troubled?

And trust me, there’s definitely room for educational content like that.

Buuuut art can be a great way to get past headlines and stereotypes and so on and so forth. So it’s fun to dig a little deeper like … okay, what’s your indie scene? What does your r&b sound like? What sounds do your DJs like sampling? Do you have a metal scene? Etc etc etc. As a species we’re great at making art despite everything.

today ive discovered that what made me feel so energized the last time i had a monster wasn't the caffeine but the excitement of watching my favorite streamer

unfortunately, crunching numbers and writing about them when im already exhausted isn't nearly as exciting as my boy (genderfluid) going live

Damn I hoping I could make you cum yesterday. Ever interested in doing that again?
