The salvage animatronics (salvage Monty, salvage freddy, salvage ennard, and darktrap) (constructed from broken animatronics) (end is are exposed) (partially inspired by the ignited animatronics)

And the omori charecters are cannon to the malefactor malfunction au cuz why the fuck not

The springlock animatronics (fredbear, spring Bonnie, and Alastair)

Villains for malefactor malfunction can be found here

How the AU’s work

Each au has four version (book style in which it falls into silver eye’s continuity, game style in which it falls into game continuity, movie style in which it falls into movie continuity, and amalgam style in which it combines all three continuity’s into one)

In xanthophobia Cassidy is the villain (William afton die’s extremely soon in the AU and for once in his life never comes back)

So in my most of my AU’s the souls are able to grow old despit not being alive which explains any shipping you might see. Most of it isn’t my doing though

Elizabeth x Nick is only cannon in golden children

Unless its Evan x Cassidy or Mike x Charlie

TF2 is cannon in the golden children au (i mostly just wanted to make fnaf 2 Jeremy TF2 Jeremy)

The golden children au takes place in the late 80s to early 90s with flash forwards towards the pizzaplex era while the shattered souls au takes place in 1991 and the malefactor malfunction shifts the entire time line to start in 2000 GMTC takes place around 1999 to 2018 xanthophobia takes place in in the 2000s and 2010s

In shattered souls Springtrap is much nicer due to him losing his murdeous tendencies after getting spring locked

malefactor malfunction is a Ben 10 fnaf crossover with Cassidy having a version of the omnitrix called kaizotrix

The blog itself is cannon in all AU’s

This is a link to the malefactor malfunction aliens list for all of Cassidy’s kaizotrix transformations

As well as facts about the malefactors

Hi! Thanks for everything you do ☺️ I was just wondering - how do you know the Me! Demo you have is legit and not just the original with Brenden's bits edited out?

I remember getting it from it's original source, probably leaked.cx or something along those lines. I can't find a way to search that particular site so I can't find the original post. It might not even be there anymore, either deleted or buried with other stuff. The site has a horrible interface and design, but it is very popular for music leaks, so I have to drag myself to it sometimes.

There are a few ways to tell, the main one being the original file. The original file was named something like "me ruff jan 14." I don't have access to programs that tell you when a file was originally created or shared, but there are people that do, and they checked. There's also the fact that it doesn't sound like AI. Although we are getting scarily close to a world where the differences between AI creations become imperceptible to human-made creations, we aren't quite there yet. There's probably a more technical and thorough answer out there and someone with the original file (I edited mine), but that's all I know.

Also, with the circles I run in, people absolutely dissect anything new that comes out. I'm not very good at it, but they are. If there was anything faulty with that particular demo, they, along with countless others, would have found it.

A very basic response that I would use as a baselines would be like, the Taylor Swift wiki or something. I don't know if they list fake demos (I'm Alright from the Red Era [which I believed was real when I was very little], Keep Going from the 1989 era, etc).

There was a site I absolutely loved called raretaylorswift.webs.com, but it hasn't been up for years and I am still mourning it. They were mainly a rare photos site, but they also had a list of every unreleased song and demo known to the community, color coded by if it had been leaked or not. They also included writers and producers of each track where they could, which was amazing. I hope whoever ran that website is doing okay.

I just got back into watching Haikyuu (thanks to the movie), and it felt soooo nostalgic.

I first started watching it when I was 14 and still in middle school. It helped me through some dark times in my life, but despite loving it, I eventually moved on to other fandoms.

Re-watching the show now feels so weird, because it’s been five years and I just graduated high school. Before, I was younger than the youngest characters, and now I’m older than the oldest…

It got me thinking about just how amazing Haikyuu is at representing what growing up actually is. So many people seems to get it wrong, maybe because they’re trying to make movies/shows about teenagers when they clearly forgot what it is to be a teenager, or doesn’t know what it’s like to be a teenager now.

But i feel that Haikyuu is the kind of representation that stays true no matter what.

Seeing all those different characters grow up and move forward in different directions really hit me.

It’s not because you love something that you have to do it forever, to do it professionally. You can be good at something and love, and still want to pursue other passions. You have the right to have multiple dreams, to try different things, to give up and pick up new hobbies, to just do things.

You can move on from something without erasing all the happiness and memories it brought you. You can live away from people without losing their love, the thing that link you together. You can become your own person outside of the things and people you love, and it still won’t erase all of your good memories.

Sometimes, you feel sad about growing up because you don’t want to lose what you have. Nostalgia is scary, you don’t want to have to revisit your memories and be sad that it’s over and won’t ever come back. What you did in high school, all those friendships, the moments, the laughs ; it will all become memories.

But you shouldn’t look at memories through hurt that it won’t happen again, but more with a fond look, knowing that the most important stayed : the feeling that during that time, you were happy.

Even if you didn’t keep in touch with people, or the thing you love, you can look back and know that you were happy, and all in all, it’s all that matters.

Besides, Haikyuu shows that choosing different paths and ways to live doesn’t mean you will lose the people who love you. It’s not because you don’t play volleyball anymore, the one thing that linked you all, that you’ll stop being friends with people. And it’s not because you don’t go to school together anymore, because you’re not in the same country, because you don’t talk often, that the love disappears.

A true friendship stays the same, because in Taylor Swift’s words, “love is never lost when perspective is earned”.

Watching Haikyuu now made me really nostalgic, thinking of my own graduation.

It’s people I won’t see everyday anymore, some I might never see again. It’s habits that I like that I won’t get to do anymore. It’s classes ai loved that I’ll have to abandon.

It’s change and it’s scary, but watching Haikyuu helps me be more at peace with it.

And in the same way that I still love Haikyuu after not having watched it in almost four years, I know that I’ll still love and cherish the people and the memories forever.

Thank you Haikyuu for always teaching us valuable lessons, and be there for us throughout everything.

<33

Rules: Tag 10 people you’d like to know better!

I got tagged by @shootingstarpilot <3 so here we go!

—————

Relationship Status: Single, and honestly it’s kinda nice—yeah I’d like a romantic relationship, but I find being single very…peaceful. Plus I have some great friends, so I’m not particularly upset about it.

Favorite Color: Forest Green or any shade of Dark Blue

Favorite Food: Toasted Sourdough Bread + any number of toppings. I go through so much sourdough bread because I’ll buy a bunch of different toppings and just eat fancy toast the whole week. Some of my favorite combinations include-

- Bacon, Fried Egg, and Cheddar Cheese

- Pepperjack Cheese, Caramelized Onions, and Fried Green and Red Peppers

- Queso and Jalapeños

- Mayo, Bologna, and Fried Egg (don’t knock it, until you try it—I know it sounds weird)

Song Currently Stuck In My Head: Vigilante Shit by Taylor Swift (tbh any song by Taylor Swift will constantly be playing on repeat in my head)

Last Thing I Googled: “Alternative writing platforms for Google Docs that aren’t like Word”

Listen, I’ve seen so many people being like “oh, you need to switch from Google Docs to another writing platform, they’re gonna let AI scrape your data!” (I do not know how true that is) and I was like “yknow what? Sure, I’ll try to find one”

BUT EVERY OTHER PLATFORM IS BASICALLY JUST WORD UNDER A DIFFERENT NAME AND I LITERALLY HATE USING WORD

So yeah, at this point, Google can just take my data—I’m sure that explicit CodyWan one shot I’m writing is gonna come in handy for them in the future (/sarcasm)

Time: At the time of posting, it’s 11:14 pm, I’m in Eastern Standard Time

Dream Trip: I’m not much of a trip planner, but I’d love to go to somewhere with a nice big forest and mountains everywhere, preferably somewhere cool but not cold—somewhere peaceful

Something I Want: Ngl I’d kill to buy a nice lightsaber, but I’m headed to college soon and idk if I’d use it there

i just know that the people begging for taylor to bring about a change in AI legislations will also be angry that "a white woman billionaire is making this about herself and not drawing attention to average women going through this"

like. taylor's feminism is very famously self centered. we know that. but they are SO CLOSE to getting to the point of all this!! do they not realise how downplayed and desentised making deepfake ai p*rn has become, that the only chance of there being a change is when it happens to a woman as rich and influential as taylor swift - and not when it happens to, say an average 14 year old girl because of her male classmates??

there's always backlash and then backlash to the backlash and at the end of the day, like you said, this is sadly so common and much bigger than she is

Trump’s tough talk might help Liberal Mark Carney win a full term as Canada’s prime minister (AP) Mark Carney’s political career is only months old, and it’s already been a roller-coaster ride. The former central banker appeared destined to become one of Canada’s shortest-serving prime ministers until U.S. President Donald Trump picked a fight with the neighboring country. Carney, who was sworn in on March 14 following Justin Trudeau’s resignation and a Liberal Party leadership race, now leads in the polls heading into the April 28 parliamentary election, marking a dramatic turnaround for a party that seemed destined for a crushing defeat until Trump started attacking Canada’s economy and sovereignty almost daily. Trump’s trade war and threats to make Canada the 51st U.S. state have infuriated Canadians and led to a surge in nationalism that has helped the Liberals flip the election narrative.

DC’s Special Status Gets Ripped Up by DOGE’s Job and Cost Cuts (Bloomberg) Many American cities have suffered after the disruption of a crucial hometown industry. The nation’s capital never has, until now. The swift and comprehensive campaign by President Donald Trump and his billionaire ally Elon Musk to rein in government spending is expected to throw a wrench into the economic engine that built modern Washington. Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency has fired thousands of federal employees, and wants to close agencies, abandon leases and tear up billions of dollars in government contracts. The district is expected to lose as many as 40,000 federal jobs, the city has estimated, or 21% of its federal workforce. That has civic leaders bracing for a spending chill at local businesses, turmoil in office and housing markets and reduced tax collections that could upend city finances. Workers caught up in the federal purge are calculating how far their savings can stretch.

An Inside Look at the Subway’s Archaic Signal System (NYT) Deep inside a subway station in Brooklyn, in a cramped, industrial room, Dyanesha Pryor pushes in a metal lever on a hulking machine that was installed nearly a century ago. A few hundred feet away, a signal light flashes red and a train that had been rumbling down the local tracks slides to a stop. Ms. Pryor, a transit worker, pulls another lever and a section of rail shifts into place, allowing the local train to merge onto a shared track in front of a waiting express train. She then restores the signal to green and the local rolls into the station. Thousands of subway riders a day depend on Ms. Pryor for a smooth commute. But if she has to unexpectedly step away, even for a bathroom break, all express service is rerouted to the local tracks until she returns. “Everybody has to go local because there’s nobody here to move the levers,” said Ms. Pryor, 35. For anyone with deep fears that AI is taking over everything, the way the NYC Subway is operated may come as a relief. Some of that relief may be thrown off track when you learn that vast swaths of the subway still rely on signal equipment from the Great Depression.

Judge Accuses Government of ‘Willful and Bad Faith’ Stonewalling in Deportation Case (NYT) A federal judge in Maryland blasted the Trump administration on Tuesday for flouting her instructions to answer questions about what steps it had taken, and planned to take, in seeking the release of a Maryland man who was wrongly deported to El Salvador last month. The sharp rebuke by the judge, Paula Xinis, contained in an eight-page order, suggested she had lost her patience with the Justice Department’s pattern of stonewalling her in the case involving the deported man, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. In her order, Judge Xinis accused the department of “a willful and bad faith refusal to comply with discovery obligations.” She also dismissed as “specious” its attempts to evade providing information about how Mr. Abrego Garcia ended up in a Salvadoran prison by claiming that it amounted to privileged state secrets. “For weeks, defendants have sought refuge behind vague and unsubstantiated assertions of privilege, using them as a shield to obstruct discovery and evade compliance with this court’s orders,” Judge Xinis wrote, giving vent to her frustrations. “Defendants have known, at least since last week, that this court requires specific legal and factual showings to support any claim of privilege. Yet they have continued to rely on boilerplate assertions. That ends now.”

US and global economic outlook deteriorates in Trump trade war, IMF says (AP) The U.S. and global economies will likely slow significantly in the wake of President Donald Trump’s tariffs and the uncertainty they have created, the International Monetary Fund said Tuesday. The IMF said that the global economy will grow just 2.8% this year, down from its forecast in January of 3.3%, according to its latest World Economic Outlook. And in 2026, global growth will be 3%, the fund predicts, also below its previous 3.3% estimate. And the Fund sees the world’s two largest economies, China and the United States, weakening: U.S. economic growth will come in at just 1.8% this year, down sharply from its previous forecast of 2.7% and a full percentage point below its 2024 expansion. The IMF doesn’t expect a U.S. recession, though it has raised its odds of one this year from 25% to about 40%. “We are entering a new era,” Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, chief economist at the IMF, said. “This global economic system that has operated for the last eighty years is being reset.”

Officials from Ukraine, US and UK meet in London in latest push to stop the war (AP) Officials from Britain, the U.S., European nations and Ukraine will meet in London on Wednesday to push for a peace deal between Moscow and Kyiv, amid growing speculation that the U.S. will press Ukraine to cede territory to Russia as part of a potential peace agreement. During similar talks last week in Paris, U.S. officials presented a proposal that included allowing Russia to keep control of occupied Ukrainian territory as part of a deal, according to a European official familiar with the matter. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy pushed back against that idea, saying: “There is nothing to talk about—it is our land, the land of the Ukrainian people.” Some European allies are wary of the American proposal. But there’s also acknowledgment by some allies that Russia is firmly entrenched wholly or partially in five regions of Ukraine—Crimea, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. If the goal is to obtain a ceasefire immediately, “it should be based on the line of contact as it is,” said a senior French official.

Istanbul residents flood streets after 6.2-magnitude quake (BBC) A series of earthquakes including a 6.2-magnitude tremor have struck near Istanbul, shaking buildings and prompting people to flee their homes. At least 151 were injured jumping from high places, the governor of Turkey's largest city said on X. There were no deaths and no major structural damage reported, authorities said. Large groups of people remained on the streets as aftershocks struck in the afternoon, and many have prepared to spend the night outside to safeguard against another strong tremor. The epicentre of the 6.2-magnitude tremor was located along the coast of the Sea of Marmara, in the Silivri area about 80 km (50 miles) west of Istanbul.

For Iraqi Christians, Pope Francis’ visit was a rare moment of hope (AP) The death of Pope Francis has sent shockwaves through Iraq’s Christian community, where his presence once brought hope after one of the darkest chapters in the country’s recent history. His 2021 visit to Iraq, the first ever by a pope, came after years of conflict and displacement. Just a few years before that, many Iraqi Christians had fled their homes as Islamic State militants swept across the country. Christian communities in Iraq, once numbering over a million, had already been reduced to a fraction of their former number by decades of conflict and mass emigration. In Mosul, the site of some of the fiercest battles between Iraqi security forces and the Islamic State, Chaldean Archbishop Najeeb Moussa Michaeel recalled the pope’s visit to the battle-scarred city at a time when many visitors were still afraid to come as a moment of joy, “like a wedding for the people of Mosul.” “He broke this barrier and stood firm in the devastated city of Mosul, proclaiming a message of love, brotherhood, and peaceful coexistence,” Michaeel said.

Dialysis patients struggle to get treatment in blockaded Gaza. Officials say hundreds have died (AP) Twice a week, Mohamed Attiya’s wheelchair rattles over Gaza’s scarred roads so he can visit the machine that is keeping him alive. The 54-year-old makes the journey from a temporary shelter west of Gaza City to Shifa Hospital in the city’s north. There, he receives dialysis for the kidney failure he was diagnosed with nearly 15 years ago. But the treatment, limited by the war’s destruction and lack of supplies, is not enough to remove all the waste products from his blood. “It just brings you back from death,” the father of six said. Many others like him have not made it. They are some of Gaza’s quieter deaths from the war, with no explosion, no debris. But the toll is striking: Over 400 patients, representing around 40% of all dialysis cases in the territory, have died during the 18-month conflict because of lack of proper treatment, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Anti-Defamation League says anger at Israel is now the driving force behind antisemitism in the US (AP) The Anti-Defamation League says the number of antisemitic incidents in the United States reached a record high last year and notes that 58% of the 9,354 incidents related to Israel, notably chants, speeches and signs at rallies protesting Israeli policies. In a report released Tuesday, the ADL, which has produced annual tallies for 46 years, said it’s the first time Israel-related incidents—5,422 of them in 2024—comprised more than half the total. A key reason is the widespread opposition to Israel’s military response in Gaza after the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. The ADL’s findings add grist to an intense, divisive debate among American Jews—and others—over the extent to which vehement criticism of Israeli policies and of Zionism should be considered antisemitic.

French President Macron brought new promises to cyclone-battered Mayotte. Residents want more (AP) Traditional songs and dances welcomed French President Emmanuel Macron when he arrived this week on the Indian Ocean territory of Mayotte—unlike his last visit, when he was greeted by furious, desperate residents reeling from a devastating cyclone. But while daily life is improving, the impact of Cyclone Chido in December still dominated Macron’s latest trip to this archipelago near Madagascar, the poorest corner of France. Mayotte’s worst cyclone in a century killed dozens and left more than 2,000 injured, flattened homes and cut off power, communications and water supplies. After a contentious visit in December, Macron was careful as he toured Mayotte on Monday. He brought new promises for reconstruction aid for the territory’s 320,000 residents. But during Macron’s discussions with the local population, some told him that his earlier promises were still not being fulfilled. Mayotte is accustomed to struggles, and big promises from faraway Paris.

Teenagers who go to bed early and sleep longer have sharper brains, study finds (Guardian) Teenagers who go to bed earlier and sleep for longer than their peers tend to have sharper mental skills and score better on cognitive tests, researchers have said. A study of more than 3,000 adolescents showed that those who turned in earliest, slept the longest, and had the lowest sleeping heart rates outperformed others on reading, vocabulary, problem solving and other mental tests. The researchers expected teenagers with healthy sleeping habits to score better than those who slept poorly, but were surprised at the impact that even small differences in sleep made.

The Liberty Gazette Wednesday, January 22, 2025 Chaos in the Streets: Cities Reel from Mass Deportations as Protests Erupt Nationwide

By Amanda Reyes, Senior Staff Writer

The sound of boots pounding on city streets and the wails of families being torn apart echoed across Chicago, New York, Boston, and Philadelphia yesterday as the federal government unleashed military units to carry out sweeping mass deportations. President Trump ordered the unprecedented operation, which has resulted in confirmed casualties and left immigrant communities and their supporters in shock and mourning.

As armored vehicles rolled into neighborhoods, reports surfaced of aggressive house raids, indiscriminate detentions, and violent clashes between residents and soldiers. In Chicago's Little Village neighborhood, a mother and her two children were killed when officers stormed their apartment, mistaking a kitchen utensil for a weapon. In New York’s Queens borough, witnesses described soldiers forcibly removing families as neighbors begged for mercy. Similar scenes played out in Boston's Dorchester area and Philadelphia’s Kensington district, where community activists say military tactics escalated into chaos.

The administration confirmed the death toll stands at 14 but refused to release names or details, citing “operational security.” Advocacy groups warn the number is likely far higher, given unconfirmed reports of injuries and fatalities in holding centers set up overnight.

Protests Erupt Amid Tragedy

As news of the raids spread, protests erupted in all four cities, quickly drawing tens of thousands of outraged citizens. Demonstrators in Chicago and New York occupied major highways, bringing traffic to a standstill. In Boston, protesters clashed with law enforcement near City Hall after tear gas was deployed to disperse the crowd. Philadelphia saw a march turn violent when counter-protesters arrived, prompting police to declare an unlawful assembly.

“We cannot let this happen in our city, in our country,” said Carla Mendoza, a Boston organizer who has lived in the U.S. since she was six years old. “This is not just an attack on immigrants; it’s an attack on humanity.”

More Cities Targeted

The White House announced plans to expand the operation to 20 additional cities, including Houston, Miami, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Los Angeles. While officials claim the raids target “criminal illegal aliens,” critics argue they indiscriminately target immigrant families, many of whom have lived in the U.S. for decades.

Local governments have scrambled to respond. Mayors of several targeted cities have openly defied the president, vowing to use every resource to shield their residents. “We are a sanctuary city, and we will protect our people,” declared Los Angeles Mayor Anita Lopez.

In response, the president escalated his rhetoric, blaming the cities for “harboring illegal people” and threatening “swift consequences” for those resisting federal orders. “They brought this on themselves,” he said during a press conference. “If Americans want peace, they need to stand down and let us restore order.”

A Nation Divided

The deportations and ensuing protests have deepened divisions across the country, with supporters of the administration praising the president’s “tough stance on illegal immigration” and detractors calling it a violation of human rights.

“What we’re seeing is state-sponsored violence against vulnerable people,” said Professor Robert Klein of the University of Chicago, a scholar of constitutional law. “This is a dark chapter in American history, one that will leave scars for generations.”

Civil rights organizations are mobilizing legal teams to challenge the deportations, with some filing emergency injunctions. Meanwhile, activists are urging solidarity, planning nationwide demonstrations this weekend under the banner “Families Belong Together.”

What’s Next?

With tensions running high, the nation watches anxiously as the next phase of the operation looms. For many, the question is not just about immigration policy but the soul of the country.

“This is not who we are,” said Reverend Alicia Greer of Philadelphia. “Or at least, it’s not who we’re supposed to be. We must decide if we will fight for the ideals of justice and compassion—or let them die in the streets.”

The Liberty Gazette will continue to provide updates as this story unfolds.
