Stocking Stuffer 5/5: 2 Functional AC:NH Conversions for Toddlers

You've reached the toe of the stocking!

The lovely @decat2 converted a bunch of beloved objects from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and I thought a couple of them might make cute toddler toys.

First up is the "unfinished puzzle", which now functions as a logic toy. Toddlers will still use the shape puzzle blocks with it but I thought it looked kind of cute so I left it. It comes with the 6 original Animal Crossing textures Decat converted as well as some new recolours you see here; a clipart painted cottage, this sweet ACNH screencap by user aforestlife, these flowers by Ellen Crimi-Trent, this pastoral scene by Leon Devenice, this adorable kitten painting by Lucía Verdejo, and then three of my old Freezer Bunny calendar pics.

And second, we have the bird pool ring, cloned from Rebecah's pool tubes. Toddlers can be placed in the floatation ring and will splash around while the ring is animated. Comes with all 6 original Animal Crossing recolours converted by Decat.

I hope you enjoyed this mini gift event and have/will continue to have a lovely holiday period!

News. Didn’t sleep much last night so I’ll have to do captions and more detailed stuff later, my sincere apologies.

Here’s a sumup for Feb 22, 2024:

Norway has divested $500 million from Israel bonds. A huge win for BDS movements. More info and the original tweet thread can be found here.

Hundreds of protestors begin again in the Bay Area, directly to Biden’s fund raiser in SF. All of the standalone images are from this event, as reported by Kqed, found via Instagram here. Descriptions for images are attached to each. Entire post contents are as follows: “kqednews Protesters demanding a cease-fire in Gaza gathered Wednesday night near a fundraiser in San Francisco for President Joe Biden's 2024 campaign. Hundreds of activists filled Alta Plaza Park as part of the demonstration organized by the Palestinian Youth Movement and the Party for Socialism and Liberation. Protestors chanted "free, free Palestine" and "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" and urged the president to end U.S. aid to Israel. "How dare he visit San Francisco only to rake in cash, ignoring residents of a city which passed a ceasefire resolution with a supermajority?", said Suzanne Ali, a Palestinian Youth Movement member, in a written statement. "While Biden charges donors $100,000 for a ticket to his cocktail party, bombs labeled 'Made in the USA' are raining down on civilians in Gaza for the fourth consecutive month, killing over 13,000 Palestinian children and counting." "We are demanding that there is a permanent ceasefire now," said Party for Socialism and Liberation member Ramsey Robinson, who spoke at the protest. "That's our money, stolen from the people, stolen from the taxpayers, and we want to let Joe Biden know that we know that." President Biden is reportedly making multiple campaign stops in San Francisco and Los Altos Hills between Wednesday and Thursday. But Robinson thinks that other than "the tiny number of the super rich," Biden isn't popular in the Bay Area. Read for more details at kqed.org/news”

Girl Scouts have received funding from Raytheon Tech and has made “stay neutral” merch. We hates a neutral ass bitch, sorry Girl Scouts, not sorry. Full story, from @prem_thakker : “Wow—Girl scouts wanted to make bracelets to help aid Palestinian kids. @girlscouts leadership threatened them, saying they must "stay neutral." After it was pointed out there've been similar efforts for Ukraine, they pivoted, saying the troop didn't follow "approval processes:” Prem then displays another image which says: “The last sentence hit her hard: "Unfortunately, if this direct violation of the organization's governing documents and policies continues, Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri and Girl Scouts of the United States have no other choice than to engage our legal counsel to help remedy this situation and to protect the intellectual property and other rights of the organization." "I got a little scared; I'm not gonna lie," she said. "I wondered, what are they going to do to me?* For years, she had strived to give these girls the opportunities she had missed out on herself. The troop had formed a sisterhood, growing up together since kindergarten. Abuhamdeh reached out to the other parents. They decided the organization's values didn't align with what they were trying to teach their daughters.” I’m unclear where this image/quote was taken from, presumably from the original reporting of STLtoday.com

There’s additional tweets from Prem, which talk more about Girlscouts & weapons contractors here. The images at source are screencaps (from the girlscout website) which I’ll share here:

The last two images are the most important; the first depicts an image of a Palestinian boy holding a blanket he has apparently salvaged from rubble. The tweet from @Times of Gaza reports at 2:50 am of Feb 22, “Day 139 | During the past 24 hours: 9 massacres committed by the Israeli occupation • 97 people killed • 132 injured.” At 10:52 am @Times of Gaza reports: “UPDATE | 23 people killed in the Deir Al-Balah airstrikes. The death toll is expected to rise.”

This continued loss of life is irreplaceable and my heart mourns for them. FREE PALESTINE please God.

Eta: I added text to all images for my comrades who need it. I also added a couple new images for Girl Scouts info (I had to remove a redundant img of the Kqed insta, in order to include this info). Please LMK in the notes if it’s more helpful/ easier for yall for img notes or directly in my post. My brain is fried, I’m sorry this is such a haphazard post.

Biden and Raytheon info will have to wait til tomorrow. I also hope to get some info/ articles up about Israel and diamond trade - responsible for a huge portion of Israel’s GDP and stolen exploited resources from the Congo.

Anime fans lie about documentary exposing pedophilia

Here’s a popular twitter user, called mombot, who doxes people:

Lying about a documentary exposing child abuse so people won’t watch it:

https://archive.is/Is48D

Mombot admitting they didn’t watch the documentary before slandering it:

https://archive.is/zDmay

Neither did Takeshi Nogami if he thought he was misrepresented (which doesn’t even seem to be what he said and just some lie made up by mombot), since he’s not even featured in it.

Here's a translation of Nogami's tweets http://www.ricedigital.co.uk/girls-und-panzer-designer-bbc-documentary-is-fake-news-national-shame/ he never said he was misrepresented. This is what angered mombot's followers, a lot of them thought BBC lied about Nogami, one of their favorite artists. Nogami does call it "Fake News", but unless he's being an idiot it can't be in reference to himself since he's never seen the footage they filmed of him.

Watch the actual BBC documentary at 33 minutes in to see a man talk about making erotica featuring a 6 year old. Mombot looks to be lying about Nogami so people won’t know about the 6 year old’s abuse, because that might lead to a crackdown on childporn drawings that normalize this sort of shit:

Here’s mombot spreading more lies about the documentary to stop people from learning about the abuse of six year olds. BBC never claimed Yuyushiki was childporn:

http://archive.is/WMq8q

If you watch the documentary, you can see that the only thing Stacey says about Yuyushiki is that it has doe eyed characters that are featured on big signs in Tokyo.

The screencap mombot took is from BBC’s trailer, when Stacey asks “Is this child pornography?” she’s talking about chaku ero:

https://twitter.com/bbcthree/status/836667558195404800

If you don’t think chaku ero is childporn you really are a fucking pedophile. Also notice how many of mombot’s dumbshit followers liked their slander on twitter.

The picture mombot posted that shows Stacey looking at something and saying “She’s not old enough to make this decision for herself.” has also been shared around by pedophilic anime fans trying to paint Stacey as stupid so people won’t learn about Japan’s child abuse:

when stacey says this she’s looking at real childporn

of a 6 year old

not your shitty lolicon manga

although that garbage should be banned as well

the japanese woman next to stacey calls it real cp too

fucking weeaboo piece of shit

More of mombot lying about Stacey:

http://archive.is/LU1a0

She never misrepresented anyone you lying weeb kimoota. She got in trouble with the pedophile protecting police because she was exposing men prostituting underage girls. How much of a pedophile do you have to be for that to outrage you?

Who the fuck got cut except for Nogami? Maybe he was cut because they didn’t have time for him and wanted the documentary to focus more on chaku ero, as in, real childporn.

Japan only has low sexual assault rates because the society is so unbelievably sexist that most of them go unreported:

http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2016/11/05/national/media-national/dubious-cost-sexual-assault-japan/#.WVq5VlFLeUm

Japan appears to have a serious problem with sexual assault it doesn’t want to face. Even if the lower estimated number of unreported cases is accepted - more than 80 percent - it’s still a colossal figure.

This otaku thinks it’s racist to say anime sucks:

Is it the same if a Japanese person says American cartoons suck? Is that a terrorist attack on the United States? Lastly, a bit off topic, but mombot also wrote this hilarious nonsense, which is a good read if you want a laugh:

GamerGate is a struggle for the liberty and fairness of gaming culture as well as internet journalism, but it is also much more. GamerGate is about the problem of distinguishing truth from falsehood in today’s information-oriented society: an important theme in cyberpunk and dystopian SF literature as well as an important subject for philosophical discussion. GamerGate is each of us providing our own answer to the question of what gaming culture is and was. In doing so, we reaffirm that precious, intangible something which gives gaming its value. At the same time, we will leave behind a legacy of our own: GamerGate.

Update: mombot decided to contact this blog, not to try to make things right after their lies, but just to be an idiot:

top nine first time watches of 2023 tagged by @dizzymoods

this accidentally posted while I was working on alt text during a work break, so not everything is complete but the photos align with the text below.

#1 top film and theater experience of the year) watching Fremont in Fremont as a former Fremont resident

(2023, Babak Jalali)

2) Animalia (Parmi nous) via Sundance streaming

(2023, Sofia Alaoui)

becomes a truly mystical experience. like ppl are gonna make comparisons with certain Soviet films but let this one stand on its own pls

3) Bravo, Burkina (2023 , Walé Oyéjidé) via Sundance streaming

4) Cry of the City (1948, Robert Siodmak) at Noir City.

My fave of the films I was able to catch at the various festivals here throughout the SF Bay, though for top experience I was grateful to finally get to the Castro Theatre for two SF Silent Film screenings before Another Planet changes the seats...

5) The Blazing Sun (Siraa Fil-Wadi) (1954, Youssef Chahine)

screencap found here

6) There is No Evil (Sheytân vojūd nadârad)

(2020, Mohammad Rasoulof)

The "Bella ciao" scene alone is iconic! Yet it is just one moment within a devastating and strident cinematic statement.

7) And Then We Danced (Da chven vitsek'vet)

(2019, Levan Akin)

If you have had any rigorous dance training, you can tell how good this film is- down in the details, telling story through movement.

8) Journey to Epcot Center: A Symphonic History

(2023, Defunctland/Kevin Perjurer)

screencap found here

I SUPPORT KEVIN IN ALL HIS ENDEAVORS

9) Baticano (2023, Stillz)

Imagine my surprise when I turn my TV and one of the best modern homages to German Expressionism and 30's-50's Western studio horror, starring Bad Bunny as Nosferatu and Steve Buscemi as a "mad scientist." The depths of the black parts of the screen alone... pure! black! contrast! Not the telltale flat digital black-gray!

Benito may be no Max Schreck, but Stillz was on a roll for the rapper's videos last year, and now I feel less... embarrassed? that I was repeatedly hypnotized by the hyper-Coachella vibes of the "Where She Goes" video... Stillz has skills.

Or at least knows how to shoot what I like.

Runners-up are many, but I want to highlight:

a) a small but solid run of horror viewing in October, from the adrenaline of As Above So Below to all the subtext James Whale snuck into The Old Dark House. Doctor Jekyll and Sister Hyde should be counted as one of the best Hammer horrors imo. On the borders of the horror were Mother Joan of the Angels, La Llorona, and the more witchy fantasy The Five Devils.

b) sidestep into Indonesia with May the Devil Take You, which may not be at the tip top levels of Impetigore but still a uniquely wild ride. Headshot sets standards on the action side, and you can definitely spot Gareth Evans' Indonesian industry training in his English folk-action-horror foray Apostle.

I'm curious about jugdral's story but really don't want to play those games. Is watching a playthrough worth it?

Mmh...

FE4's PT are long as fuck, because FE4 is a very long game with long long long chapters!

Back in my days, people wrote playthroughs instead of doing videos about them, and reading is always way less time consuming than watching a video - but the video has the OST which is really good, and you can get more attached to the characters than with a screenshot PT!

(if you're interested, I sort of posted my own FE4 PT under the tag FE4 run! I think I tried to screencap all the plot moments !)

You have scripts available on Serenes Forest, and you have the FE4 Oosawa manga, that takes, uh, some liberties with the canon, but if you want to get a feeling of the characters, it's here (with pretty 90s art!)

And once the FE4 run is over, you must absolutely watch/read a FE5 run because FE5 is imo the best part of the duology and then SF has some supplementary materials like Kaga's notes or notes that can be found in artbooks (FE Treasure!).

But if you're a bit overwhelmed, I'll happily answer to your asks about some plot points, if you want!

RE Engine sure is pretty

[demonsfate]

Tekken 6 should've been called "Character Assassination: The Game" instead bc what the fuck happened. Not only did they have to murder Jin but they took Xiao as well in the process. Who else got the short end of the stick in that game?

I don't have the screencaps on me, but Xiao threatens to kill Kazuya because he won't get along with Jin and that's getting in the way of her "eloping" with him [Jin]. I think she even calls him "father" at first..... fucking weird. She also threatens Asuka (you know, CONFIRMED as Jin's cousin in this game, and Alisa even mistakes Asuka for Jin's SISTER) to "not get in the way" of her and Jin because she literally thinks Asuka is trying to "steal her man".

Altho Hwoarang's sexism was prevalent in the Street Fighter crossover, which is also bizarre. He wasn't really [as] sexist in Tek6. THERE were SOME lines... such as him getting mad at soldiers for ganging up on Zafina and Julia because they're a bunch of "brutes" against "a woman." Which I don't think the other characters had that. But Hwoarang was def more sexist in the SF crossover lmao

Other than that, iirc, Xiao and Jin are really the ones that suffered most. I recalled thinking Alisa was rather boring when compared to her other iterations. But... this was her first appearance, so you can't really say "character assassination" when it comes to that.

I will say a positive and I did enjoy DJ's characterization a lot in 6. Just because he was very entertaining in scenario campaign, and I also liked that 6 was one of the first to separate Jin and DJ as characters, rather than what Tek5 did by DJ saying "Oh I AM Jin but I just learned to control the powers teehee!" DJ in Tek5 claimed to be Jin when asked, DJ in Tek6 was openly offended when asked. Which I prefer the latter.

⚠WARNING: FURTHER BRAINROT IMMINENT⚠

[Watch the full announcement video here!]

Screencaps and personal reactions/observations under the cut-

>In-game enemies: Weirdos, literal demons, pigs (the kind Sal doesn't like), and teenage gossip

>['card title' whoops lol]

>LOVE this box art! All the poses are so fitting- Todd is looking very strategic (he's probably got plenty of experience with tabletop gaming), Sal is the active player (and I'll bet hes in the middle of a risky move), Larry is freaking out about the outcome of Sals move (when hes the only one with only 1 HP left), and Ash is giggling over the boys taking the game so seriously (or perhaps theres a deception element to the game and they're about to walk right into her trap? >:3c)

>(This is all going on while Red Eyes is staring over Sals shoulder and nobody has noticed sdlfkjsak)

>It also gives us a little look at what the tokens, dice, character sheets, and general layout will be like (I'm VERY excited to see everyones info and stats!!) 📝

>While only the apartment is shown, I wonder if there will be multiple maps to play on (Addison Apartments, Nockfell High, possibly the temples)?

>'1-5 players'? Meaning I can play this by myself OR loop four other people into it (so I never have to stop playing it ever)? 🤯♾

>Assuming the playable characters are the gang (based on them each being pictured with their own character sheet), whos the 5th? (Travis? Neil? Gizmo? Red Eyes itself? :0)

>OFFICIAL UNIVERSE EXPANSION! NEW CANON CONTENT!!! ITS HAPPENING GUYS HOLY SHIT AAAAAAHHHHH 😭👏👏👏💖💖💖

>[Pulls out my calendar and scribbles out the entire month of February]

>NEW ART OF GIZMO LOOKING CUTE AND HIGH AS HELL 🥺💖👌

>[You KNOW I already signed up for this shit ✅]

>It's not included in the trailer video, but in the same thread on twitter, Steve also reveled that theres a Sally Face subscription box in the works (and I heard my wallet scream from the other room lol) 💸

Overall, I am SO EXCITED about this game!! It's totally not what I was expecting (had my hopes up for the art book release or an animated series being greenlit) but I'm very much looking forward to experiencing the original story in a new way and having more physical SF merch, and I absolutely cannot wait for the the universe expansion and new artwork that this is promising!! Here's hoping for some wholesome peacetime filler and plenty of gap-filling, heart-wrenching lore (as well as some new drawings of the gang in college pls&thk u) 🙏💕
