FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

I noticed I’ve been getting some questions over and over again so I decided to make this. If I missed one let me know, I’ll edit it in.

Q: What are you going to do with this blog when their term ends?

A: I’m going to leave this blog up as a monument to the worst, longest, dumbest four years in history.

Q: Will you change the profile picture of this blog to be happier as the count reaches zero?

A: Yes, I look forward to leaving this blog with a smile on her face :)

Q: You do realize all this shit won’t just stop at the end of the count, right?

A: Yes, that’s right. But this blog isn’t counting down the days until every sociopolitical problem faced by every individual in this country is solved forever. It’s counting down the days until they, constitutionally, legally, HAVE to leave office, no matter how hard they resist going. If this blog gives even one person the motivation not to kill themselves, this blog has done its job.

Q: I missed the daycount post and now it’s buried under other long important posts. Will you help me?

A: Absolutely I will- if you send me an ask that just says “how much time” or anything to that effect, I will respond with the current daycount and maybe some encouragement.

Q: What if they get impeached/die/leave office some other way before the count hits zero?

A: Then the countdown continues as normal. They are not god, they are not king. Life continues on without them, and so does the countdown.

Q: You’re wasting your time, they’ve decided they’re staying for a third term, didn’t you see they’re selling 2028 hats?!

A: No I did not, because I don’t troll around on their website and I would advise you don’t either. Their shopping website is not a news website. The constitution does not change based on what hats they sell.

Q: But for real, what if they do get a third term?

A: They won’t. You know that. Next question, please.

Q: What if tumblr tries to demand you take this blog down?

A: Tumblr’s censorship extends to trans people and women’s bodies, we’ve seen first hand they will not give a shit about this.

Q: What if someone just as bad as them gets elected next?

A: The likelihood of that happening is exceedingly slim- in the words of Seth Meyers, “only they can pull off being them.”

Q: What if we never get to vote again?

A: Alright, everyone, you’re starting to catastrophize. Just- take a deep breath. It’s gonna be okay.

It’s gonna be okay.

one thing about the foxes is they are brutally honest. they will tell you exactly how they feel about you and they'll insult you to your face without holding back like they could not care less about hurting people's feelings and let me show you why with these quotes from the first book (yes this will be a three parts post) :

WYMACK :

"do you have any idea how much I hate coming home and finding you in my apartment?"

"that's not fair" "life isn't fair tweedle-dumb. get over it."

"hemmick, get over here and be useful for once in your mangy life"

"things aren't anything but awkward when andrew and nicky are around"

"you looked busy" "I'm always busy. that's never stopped you pricks from interrupting me before"

"you're a sopping mess. get out of my sight and clean up before I wring your neck."

"are you done wasting my oxygen yet?"

NEIL :

"what the hell did you call me?" "I called you a deadweight hasbeen"

"mother, may I?" "your mother's dead. I don't think she cares what you do"

"did no one tell you I hate surprises?" "what makes you think I care?"

"your attitude makes it hard for anyone to care about you"

"you're a team of pathetic bullies"

"your team's ranked first? congratulations and big deal"

ANDREW :

"congratulations are in order, I suppose. since I have none to give I will tell the others to respond appropriately"

"bruises you think, or scars? I think scars, too. can't be bruises if his parents aren't around to beat him, right?"

"you're not very bright. typical of a jock."

KEVIN :

"I'm not good enough to play on the same court as a champion" "true, but irrelevant"

"why are you here?" "I wanted to practice" "as if it will help you any"

"you worry about your incompetence. I'll worry about andrew"

"morning sunshine" "fuck you" "glad to see you're still a morning person" "fuck you too"

"I will wash my hands of you on the court and you can struggle your way through mediocrity alone"

"kevin, the man is dead. like permanently" "it's not a major loss" (not to his face but still SAVAGE)

MATT :

"didn't miss you at all"

"do you even remember how to smile?"

"when you say things like that it makes me think you don't trust us" "no one trusts you"

NICKY :

"the death threats were creative though. maybe this time they'll follow through and actually kill one of us. let's vote. I nominate seth"

AARON :

"you never have anything useful to say"

ALLISON :

"looks like you've managed to completely embarass yourself in both languages"

"you aren't funny. shut up."

"we didn't trust you to keep your mouth shut"

SETH :

"he's short. he can't play, and he looks like he has an attitude problem"

"we talked all kinds of shit about you after you booked it"

"are you stupid?"

[tv-opinion]

i’m gonna keep yapping because i have so many thoughts but i was really hoping they were gonna go with either maria or jesse voting no initially and i’m so glad they did because seeing someone like seth who had been established as angry, vengeful, and bigoted being supportive of ellie’s revenge mission was an immediate red flag yes maybe it would have been more palatable to have jesse blindly follow ellie but revenge won’t satiate grief!! and having one of her closest friends silently try to stop her from a path of self destruction while also betraying her trust at the same time made ellie and jesse’s dynamic so layered because they are both completely justified for their feelings idk the more i sit on the finale the more i love it

[oodlyenough]

the last of us 2x03

weeelll... I have to say I wasn't feeling this one so much, lol. I think we're hitting the point where the little deviations from the game are having a domino effect and while I'm happy to treat the show as a separate thing to the game and its characters as separate entities, it's mostly unfavourable comparisons in the show's regard

More specific thoughts under the cut, w some spoilers from the game:

I didn't mind the idea of the council vote and I thought it was interesting enough to lay out the arguments for/against. I'm curious who the third "yes" is supposed to be (as well as what Jesse or Tommy voted in the end). I was tbh glad they didn't make it a closer vote bc it seems completely obviously a no. If I were on the council I would also be voting no in a heartbeat lmao

Seth being the yes advocate was interesting imo ... he feels very, well, Republican, and like the kind of guy who WOULD be advocating for vigilante violence lol. Ellie's discomfort agreeing with him was interesting as well. I even don't mind him being the one to supply Dina and Ellie with things, and that being (I assume) how he and Ellie kind-of make amends ... even though in reality he's just aiding her in something wickedly self-destructive.

I was ok with Catherine O'Hara's role in the first episode but I have to say I am not enjoying her anymore. She feels heavy-handed at this point, like the show coming in to tell you how you're meant to interpret characters, while also sounding like an asshole and tbh not a very good therapist lol; perhaps I'm NOT meant to think she's a very reliable source of insight, but then that just begs the question why we bother having this character around... there's so much story to cover just from the games, do we NEED to create a therapist character? In the first episode I thought her point was just to highlight for the audience where the rift between Joel and Ellie was coming from. To have her in this ep just kind of shrug and be like "lol maybe Ellie just born evil what can u do" is repeating a beat we had with David in s1 that I also did not care for

Which leads me to: show Ellie. This is nothing against Bella Ramsey, who is working with the scripts they are given, but show Ellie is diverging more and more from game Ellie in her characterization and I don't really like the way the show is framing Ellie like some inherently dark character, a "violent-hearted liar" who was "born that way" because nurture is mostly irrelevant. Wtf are you talking about??? This approach also totally undermines the theme of this second game, where Ellie -- who at her core always WAS a good, kind-hearted person -- totally loses herself in her quest and only at the end does she manage to reclaim that humanity.

The other significant character changes in this ep are Tommy and Dina. I don't like game Tommy very much lol, so I think Gabriel Luna's Tommy is more likable, but I don't really like the set-up of him being the measured considerate one in contrast with show Ellie.

And Dina ... I like show Dina ok. But I don't think she feels like game Dina, because show-Dina and Ellie's relationship is so different. I can see why the TV show might have decided Dina/Ellie works better for audiences if it's drawn out into a will-they won't-they, vs the established relationship we see in the game. And they're working to make Dina a more active agent in the whole plot, which I can understand and even appreciate.

But... I do really love the simplicity of Dina and Ellie in the game and I think the ease of that relationship and that trust served a purpose; we see exactly what Ellie is putting in jeopardy in the name of her revenge, we see this simple happy life Ellie could theoretically have and now can't, etc. I always felt like a lot of the early Dina scenes especially were to show the "real" Ellie -- loving, dorky, etc -- that was slowly being lost by the revenge quest, and the very complete, wholesome love that leads to the gas mask scene. So, I kind of miss that.

And then the Jesse thing and "you're gay and I'm not" ... idk ... again I see why the show might think it's more exciting if audiences are wondering what will happen, will Dina and Ellie get together?, but I admit I am rolling my eyes at the Jesse-Dina-Ellie love triangle being more of a love triangle, Dina is apparently back with Jesse after the kiss and so presumably going to cheat on him now with Ellie, she seems torn between Jesse and Ellie blah blah... I was so worried about the game doing exactly that and so relieved when the game averted it.

Lastly, the WLF stuff in this ep leaves me baffled as to what the point was in including Abby's "our commander has a creed". It didn't make sense in the moment (why have her introduce a creed she's going to immediately ignore?) AND now they are setting up the WLF as a big scary antagonist force, so like, why even bother? Would it not be more interesting to have held that info back from the audience and let the audience, like Ellie and Dina, view the WLF as this horrible force of violence and therefore feel even more righteous in their quest? Like what was the point. It surely isn't causing any viewers to think "oh but the creed!", players know it's not true, the audience is being told it's not true, does Abby think it's true and how could she possibly... Like... IDGI. Even if the story is going to involve Abby's disillusionment with the WLF that surely won't be for episodes or seasons to come so why have that line now, so awkwardly shoved in.

[insidemyblood]

comments on the new episode before I start spamming you all with replies, this one is loooong:

I knew the aftermath was gonna be as painful as the last episode. Starting with the freaking intro, now we only get to see the silhouette of Ellie. Alone.

Tommy cleaning Joel's body made me cry, no joke, specially when he saw the broken watch and said "give Sarah my love". I want the Tommy rpers to leave me a message and send me all the things that could have gone through Tommy's mind there. How do you think he first reacted to the news?

I was expecting the flowers around the house like in the game but ouch, and that little note there. People really appreciated Joel, he was so important to many people there. I love how this shows show us people have many sides to them. And while Joel was a killer to many, a lot of people were grateful to him too.

Ellie going into the house. Seeing Joel stuff as he left them. Everything untouched, quiet, empty. Was heartbreaking. She taking his gun was so symbolic. And the jacket! My heart was ripped into pieces.

I could ramble about Ellie and Dina for hours. Why are they so cute together? I love how well they complement each other. And Dina saying: I loved him too, you know.

Tommy and Ellie in that scene. Tommy was right about Joel, he would have gone to save him, save someone he loved, I have my doubts if he would have gone down to kill Abby and her group if they'd killed Tommy. I'm divided 50/50. A part of me thinks on how pragmatic Joel can be but then he'd be so angry. I don't know. Tommy saying Joel would be broken and take it as his fault, that he'd done that many times before makes sense. But that hug at the end was warming. He feeling responsible for Ellie now, caring for her and being worried, and his talk with the town's therapist. Gave him a lot to think about.

Of all the people in Jackson, who would have thought fucking Seth was going to be the one wanting to do something about what happened to Joel, helping Ellie and Dina? I think the three counsel votes for "yes" were Tommy, Jesse and Maria. I get people had lost loved ones too, but that was on the infected. As I'd see it, I'd think whoever killed Joel would go to others and tell them about it and that would leave my community exposed, open to attacks.

The coffee beans on Joel's grave. Joel loved coffee so much and I hope they add that little hint in THAT future flashback scene I won't spoil but ugh.

[9.11.24] Seth Meyers summarizes Trump's presidency and everything he's done since in an incredible 60 second monologue.

Transcript below.

This monologue is from the end of Late Night with Seth Meyers on 9/11, the day after the Hartus-Trump debate. As Seth Meyers speaks at his desk, an inset video slideshow on the left shows images to match his words, either newspaper headlines or photos or short video clips.

Seth begins:

Donald Trump's entire argument, aside from weird lies about eating dogs and windmills and Hannibal Lecter, boils down to one thing. When he left office, things were awesome.

[Screen changes temporarily to clip of the debate with Trump speaking]: I created one of the greatest economies in the history of our country. We did a phenomenal job with the pandemic. We handed them over a country where the economy and where the stock market was higher than it was before the pandemic came in. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. [End of clip]

Back to Seth:

Ah, yes, I remember the halcyon days of 2020, when the economy was soaring and toilet paper was plentiful, and we weren't all wiping our mail down with Clorox, and filming our TV shows at home without our hair and makeup teams leaving us all looking like ghosts haunting a Dickensian orphanage. [ British accent] "Please help me! I've been trapped here ever since I died from eating spoiled gruel!"

[ Normal voice ] I can't believe I have to remind some people of this, but Donald Trump's presidency did not end well. Just in case you need it, here's a quick refresher. This shouldn't take too long.

Seth: Donald Trump was the first president since Herbert Hoover to oversee a net job loss. Unemployment soared, and the economy shrank by more than 3%. Corporate profits went up while manufacturing jobs declined. Home prices soared by nearly 30%. The national debt rose by nearly $8 trillion. Crime spiked. The number of Americans without health insurance rose by 3 million, and the number of presidents who have humped American flags went from 0 to 1.

He undercut the nation's response to a deadly pandemic that spiraled out of control because he ignored warnings about it, lied about its severity, disbanded agencies that were tasked with preparing for it, promoted sham treatments for it, said we could stop it by injecting disinfectant, and promoted a quack doctor who believes demon sperm is real, insulted servicemembers and feuded with Gold Star families, saluted a North Korean general, got reprimanded by the Army for desecrating Arlington National Cemetery in violation of federal law, and made the Queen of England disappear.

Said he had the best memory in the world, then forgot he said he had the best memory in the world, got laughed at by the United Nations, including the Germans, got impeached for threatening to withhold military aid from Ukraine, and encouraged Russia to interfere in our elections.

He doctored a weather map with a Sharpie to lie about the path of a hurricane, threw paper towels at hurricane victims, called Hannibal Lecter his wonderful man. A chief of staff called him an idiot. His national security adviser called him a dope. A secretary of state called him a moron. He got on a plane with toilet paper stuck to his shoe and didn't know how to close an umbrella.

He took millions from foreign officials, including a possible $10 million bribe from Egypt, brushed dandruff off the shoulder of the president of France. He staged a months-long coup attempt, stoked a violent insurrection, tried to coerce

Republican officials, into overturning the election, claim dead people were voting and Democrats were selling mail ballots, got impeached a second time.

He brought a crazy pillow salesman to the White House, and his lawyer gave a press conference at a landscaping company.

He lost the popular vote twice, got indicted four times, convicted of 34 felony counts, falsified business records to pay hush money to a porn star who said she spanked him in the ass with "Forbes" magazine. He was found guilty of fraud and libel and sexual abuse, possibly farted and definitely fell asleep in court.

Bragged about overturning Roe v. Wade, said he was against a Florida abortion ban, then said he was for the Florida abortion bill. Called the CEO of Apple Tim Apple, called Elon Musk "Leon Musk," said Nikki Haley was the Speaker of the House on January 6th, claimed the price of bacon goes up because the windmills blow, shark attacks are caused by electric boat batteries, again said Hannibal Lecter was dead and real, wonderful, even though he's fake and famously a bad guy, insists he's not weird by saying the word "weird" 11 times in 30 seconds, which is, let's admit it, super weird.

Became the first president -- [photo at this point shows Trump staring straight at the sun without eclipse glasses before the 2017 eclipse]

And, guys, we ran out of time, but there were a bunch more things.

[resetting37]

I wanted to make a “which table are you sitting at ?” Version for my ocs. Little random, very little of these tables consist of characters that interact, let alone actual friends. I just wanted to make bunch of ‘lol what if these characters interacted” and give each table a decent blend of sweet nice guys and those absolutely insufferable ❤️

(yes you're encouraged to vote even if u have no idea who these guys r lol)

[absandersons]

Finally got to watch ep 3 for TLOU, spoilers for the show and games below

- “Give Sarah my love.” Hey guys I’m not recovering I’m so serious

- Already with the flashbacks I wish I was DEAD!!!!

- Removing Joel from the intro they must pay for what they did

- Me when I see Jesse: 😍😍😍😍

- Her talking so fast because she doesn’t want to feel anything oh my GOD

- Ellie is such a bad liar lmao

- And Gail seeing right through her, she knows she can’t force her to talk

- The flowers still outside his house, the letters, did he even know how loved he was by his community?

- Almost like making amends

- ELLIE’S ROOM?????

- Wow his room is identical to the game I am so emo

- The coat

- Love that they kept this moment the same

- LOVE THIS CHANGE LOVE THAT DINA LIED TO PROTECT HER AND SHOWING HOW SMART SHE IS!!!

- “I loved him too, you know.”

- “Abby.”

- This cookie scene is so sweet and so them

- “Don’t talk to me like I didn’t know him” what if I died

- TOMMY AND ELLIE HUG

- SERAPHITES!!!!!

- Love love love this exposition

- Jesse Ellie training montage fuck yes fuck yes!!

- “He’s such a hardcore Jackson guy” AND THEYRE SHOWING US THAT I LOVE THIS

- Parks and Rec ass start to this council meeting

- “Forgive and be forgiven”

- Not Seth and Ellie being on the same page

- Maria and Tommy touching their boots together omg I love them so much

- Ellie showing that she is a leader with this speech

- Who were the 3 that voted with her? Tommy for sure, who else?

- Gail is such a vibe

- Oooohhhhh “they were walking side by side from the very start”

- “Some people just can’t be saved”

- WORKBENCH!!!!!!

- Ellie’s little smile when Dina pulled out the map I’m obsessed with them

- Dina’s hatred for Ellie’s converse

- SETH HELPING THEM GET AWAY ARE YOU SERIOUS

- Wild that Tommy isn’t already on his way to Seattle, I guess he and Jesse will come to get them later

- No god not his grave please

- THE COFFEE BEANS I AM SOBBING

- WE’RE RATING KISS NOW????

- It’s interesting that Dina doesn’t seem to realize that she’s queer. “Youre gay, I’m not,” it sets up the pregnancy that she and Jesse are off and on hooking up, but she has these feelings for Ellie too. I actually think it adds a level of complication and depth to her character, and the idea that she’ll realize “holy shit I’m in love with my best friend” is sooo interesting, ESPECIALLY when Jesse finds them.

- Also interesting that ELLIE rates the kiss a six

- This is just fleshing out Dina and her insecurities in a way we didn’t get in the game. She’s definitely fleshed out and interesting in the game of course, love her sm, but I think putting in her fears of being loved and if she makes the people around her sad, plus her complicated feelings for Ellie and Jesse just adds to that

- Firsttttttt sign for Dina!!

- Yikes. And I’m almost positive we’ll meet Isaac soon and (hopefully) get his backstory

- STRAIGHT OUT OF THE GAME I LOVE LOVE LOVE

- “I was trying to sound like a badass” I would die for her

- MANNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY BOY!!!!!

- What an intro to the WLF, so excited to see how they expand the backstory on them

- Imagine being this good at writing tv, insane stuff

-This show is not for people that have weak media literacy, the way Craig and Neil talk at the end of the episode about Seth is proof of that

"Weird Al" Yankovic - White & Nerdy 2006

"White & Nerdy" parodies the song "Ridin'" by Chamillionaire and Krayzie Bone. It both satirizes and celebrates nerd culture, and includes many references to activities stereotypically associated with nerds and white people, such as collecting comic books and action figures, editing Wikipedia and playing Dungeons & Dragons. The music video features Seth Green, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele. Repeated scenes shows Yankovic along with Donny Osmond (the "whitest guy I could think of", according to Yankovic) dancing in front of the Schrödinger equation.

The song became Yankovic's first career Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It peaked at #9, beating his previous #12 peak for 1984's "Eat It". This was also his first Top 40 single since 1992's "Smells Like Nirvana". Both "White & Nerdy" and Straight Outta Lynwood were certified gold, and later platinum, by the RIAA. This marks the first time any one of Yankovic's singles has been certified platinum. Total yes votes are 67,3%!

If you like Yankovic, make sure to also watch the totally historically accurate 2022 film about him; Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, starring Daniel Radcliffe.

Miracle Violence Connection - 152 votes

Haku - 183 votes

MACE - 197 votes

Trinity Fatu - 199 votes

The closest poll was Will Ospreay, who lost 136-138. He also has the second-closest poll overall (Cheerleader Julia Hart takes the top spot--her poll was decided by a single vote).

Top Five Overall

Kris Statlander - 91% smash

This is the first week that the top overall smash rankings haven't changed. Bianca Belair juuuuust missed knocking Hangman out of the top 5, but she earned her spot as 3rd overall in the women's rankings. The men's overall rankings haven't changed either, and I suspect from here on out the overall rankings for everyone and men will not change very often. If they're stagnant again next week I'll expand the overall rankings to top 10.

We finally have the definitive Scott Hall rankings as requested by @84reedsy!

Original NWO run - 60.5% smash, 220 votes

Razor Ramon - 55.7% smash, 235 votes

NWO Reboot - 48.2% smash, 193 votes

Diamond Studd - 43.7% smash, 197 votes

Across all four polls, he received 443 smash votes and 402 pass votes for an overall smash rating of 52.4%. If someone requests this for like...every Chris Jericho persona, I might have an aneurysm trying to keep it all straight.

It was a little surprising to see Will Ospreay do so poorly. I hate him, but I thought others thought he was hot in a cocky bastard sort of way. I was not surprised to see Dalton Castle score nearly 70%. The man is a delight in every way.

I had to block someone for threatening violence in the tags for a poll recently. It hasn't been much of an issue, but I ask again: please please please don't threaten violence against others even as a joke. Yes, wrestling is a violent sport and we all talk about how hot it is when they bleed all over, but it's distressing to see threats in my notifications. Please get passionate (the aggressive lobbying for Nick Jackson has made my week!) but keep it friendly.

And now for some of my favorite tags and comments

@oplishin on Luchasaurus: #luchadors turning out to be really fucking hot underneath the mask will never not be funny to me

@tache-noire on Dalton Castle: #im gonna make that man lay eggs

@pavlovean on Haku: #i hooked up with a guy once who looked kinda like haku but white#he did an impression of phil collins while we were gettin down. it was weird.

@pavlovean on Scott Hall (Original NWO Run): #scott hall has been featured on this blog probably more than any other wrestler#and my answer will never change. SMASH#how many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?!

@arthausen on Bianca Belair: #miss Bianca I would gladly be your purse dog if you’d let me

[prettypinkporkchop]

So I have this really, really, really big idear. I have autoimmune diseases. Should I make the reader sick? Like arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis? Something like that. Or lupus(my mom and sister have it). I'm not trying to romanticize it because, honestly, it sucks and we are survivors fr. But i think it'd be relatable, maybe? I have yet to relate. Like cliff diving? Honey, i can't. Running in the woods? Baby, i can't run. If yes, then choose a wolf. Tbh I can't tell if I'm being dumb or heavily daydreaming about what could be, haha!

Entangled Mess

“The Righteous One knows what is going on in the homes of the wicked; He will bring disaster on them.” Proverbs 21:12NLT

Tonight I watched the film “1916 Project.” Seth Gruber, head of ‘White Rose Resistance, narrated as he took us back to the beginning of abortion, in 1871, when a man wrote a small book which ended up in the hands of Margaret Sanger, one of the most evil women to ever live. This man’s subject matter was eugenics. Sanger surrounded herself with influential people who were pro-eugenics.

Sanger’s motive was to eradicate what she considered to be ‘inferior people’ in our world. She began in the poorest area of New York City teaching the black, the Jews, and the Slavs how to limit having children, then the earliest form of abortion. What astounds me— 3% of the CURRENT black population of females capable of ovulating have 40% of all the abortion in the USA. 40%! Sanger taught the blacks how to eliminate themselves, and vote for the ability to continue eliminating their own race! Even black preachers evoke the rights of their church women to have abortions. Yes I am upset.

The entangled mess of Planned Parenthood is bedfellows with the most evil people in the world. They’ve touched everything in our nation, our schools— By forcing sex education on pre-adolescent and adolescent children, They believe small children are sexual beings and need to be freed of inhibitions to explore their sexuality at the youngest possible ages. In my book, they’re a bunch of pedophiles needing imprisonment and the death penalty. Unless the church gets off of her haunches, becoming relevant in society once again, we’ll allow the completion of their plans. Let the church arise! These pedophiles are in our schools, churches, everywhere.

Agriculture is entangled in this by fertilizing crops with hormone inhibitors. They’ve gone from not only being racial eugenicists to lacing everyone’s food with substances changing the hormones in people.

A school cook working preparing foods daily is aware of the substances laced through all school lunches. Substances with hormone blockers, and other agents to prevent reproduction of the human species.

Adolf Hitler got his ideas of the ‘superior race’ and eugenics from Margaret Sanger and her friends in the US and Great Britain. All these people were considered extreme radicals, not worth paying attention to. Today, we can see the price of not paying attention has cost us. They’re satan’s yeast working into society a tiny bit at a time. These insidious dark spawn of hell are everywhere in all mountains of society. What I find fascinating is: Hitler got his radical ideas from the US. Then God used the US to stomp him down and kill him.

What will God have to use to eradicate these ideas from our society and the world? He says “He will bring disaster on them.”

The Bible says: “For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.” Luke 8:17NIV. It’s taken over 100 years for God to open our eyes to see what’s going on. Do we have enough sense to pray? Vote? Go into politics ourselves to fight against these things? Will we be what God uses? It’s your choice. You choose.

LET’S PRAY: LORD God You said, when the enemy comes in like a flood, You would raise up a standard against him. Help us please. Raise up the standard now and save our posterity, in the name of Jesus the Christ I pray.

Abel (From Hazbin Hotel) Has About 83.3 Percent People As His Knights...

[Note: please do NOT reblog this without permission.]

yeah, I should of talked about the results some month or days ago ago I guess...

the poll I had made on January 9th of 2025...

that has to do with Fans becoming Abel's (from Hazbin Hotel) Knights...

and the poll being called "After Seeing Abel Of Hazbin Hotel, Would You Want To Become His Knight And Protect Him With Your Life If He Was Real...?"

and yeah, those who picked "No, why should I become Abel's Knight...he'll have Lute for that" got around 16.7%...

while the ones who picked "YES, I would become his Knight, Abel (from Hazbin Hotel) must be protected!"

had ended up being the winner, and it got a 83.3%...

so congrats those who had picked that, you are the unofficial Knights of the Abel, even those who are also descendants of both Cain and Seth...

remember the motto of the order of protecting the precious Cinnamon Roll that is Abel (from Hazbin Hotel)

"you live for the Cinnamon Roll, You die for the Cinnamon Roll...PROTECT THE CINNAMON ROLL!"

(picture many Exorcist Angels raising up their weapons in agreement while screaming "YEAH!" XD )

I mean you don't really "die", it is not literally...it is just part of the Fan Motto that has to do with the Cinnamon Roll that is Abel.

and yeah the tag "Knights Of The Abel Cinnamon Roll" is new...

and it is well for this post...

and while we the fans who have chosen that part in the poll and would love to be Abel's Knights...

just picture if the Exorcist Angels (but not Lute) became Abel's Knights in a way...even calling him "Cinnamon Roll" and "Adam's Precious Cinnamon Roll"

if the Exorcist Angels ended up like that in the canon, I think Lute might freak out...well maybe even Sera who doesn't know how to feel about it.

Abel could charm the descendants of Cain, for goodness sake.

and I'm a descendant of Cain, but also Seth...and I got the idea for that poll that has to do with becoming Abel's Knights...well the one from Hazbin Hotel that is.

Abel could likely feel overwhelmed by it and try to hide behind his wings...

so yeah those who said "No" about becoming Abel's Knight, was around 16.7%...but those who chose "Yes" ended up being 83.3 %.

so picture Exorcist Angel outfits, but they are a hybridization of Knight as well, being a mix of both...like what is suppose to show the face part of the led mask now has what looks to be a knight helmet but mix with the original mask of the Exorcist.

so the ones who have more of a knight look, have more armor now.

anyway from what I can see from that poll results, Abel from Hazbin Hotel has a lot of fans who want to become his knights. XD

he is a precious cinnamon roll that must be protected.

and yeah I'm weird for having that motto pop into my head, but it first Abel from Hazbin Hotel, he is just too precious of a cinnamon roll.

I would go Feral Earth Angel on Mammon from Helluva Boss, probably....maybe...I'm weird okay, and I already have been calling dibs on Mammon, and yeah I know it's weird for a Earth Angel with the blood type of O RH D Negative to call dibs on him...but the one from this universe has it coming...he freaking knows why probably.

but yeah, Abel has about 83.3% Knights once again, so yeah congrats to the knights of the cinnamon roll for winning the poll.

PS:

oh, wait...only 18 people voted on the poll...

oh well, the results is still high even if only 18 people voted...

AGT Season 17: Auditions 8

11: The Big Apple/Sethward. Honestly, I WOULD rank this a little higher, because Seth is very creative in how he wastes everyone's time...But since this was less of an audition and more of a surprise cameo, I can't really list him among the other acts...The only thing that kept me from guessing it was him was that last year SHOULD have been the conclusion of his arc...But I guess instead he's just gonna pop in every now and then to troll everyone...

Progress Prediction: Like I said, this was another of those fake auditions...If we see him actually compete again, it will be for a “Champions” season...Heaven forbid...

10: Ava Swiss. Every season, there has to be at least one bland, shiny-voiced balladeer who's blatantly just there to tell their sad, sad story...And it REALLY grinds my gears when Simon says he'll never forget such auditions, because without the story, this would just be another nice, forgettable singer!

Progress Prediction: If it weren't for all the other sob story acts she was competing with this year, I'd predict that she'd make the Finals on her story alone...But I'm sure it will still help her get into the Semis, assuming this isn't one of those “sell the story once, and then we never see them again” acts...

9: Freckled Zelda. While I would probably consider the previous entry a better singer overall, this princess' gimmick was unique enough to make her MUCH more memorable! I mean, where else can you see a video game character sing a Disney song!? ...Actually, probably all over Youtube...Hell, Lindsey Stirling has videos like that! ...But this one plays a mean ocarina! ...Anyway, it looks like Link's princess is in another castle. (Yes, I know that's a different game franchise...) No doubt the REAL Zelda can sing circles around this chick...

Progress Prediction: Either the judges will drop her in the “Judge Cuts” (which appear to be relegated to a brief deliberation at the end of the last audition once again this year), or America will drop her in the Quarters (likely after Simon buzzes her).

8: Ciara and Trey. Very well choreographed and all that, but I've seen better, even from kids younger than them...

Progress Prediction: This is another one that all comes down to how much they can up their game in the coming rounds...

7: Don McMillan. This was more cute than funny, but the use of slides was pretty clever, and there were a few relatable points in there...We're in an age where I don't have to be ashamed to say I'm a nerd...That is, assuming I'm not tooting my own horn on my IQ, because that would otherwise make me a stalker...

Progress Prediction: Another gimmick act that will be lucky to even make the live shows, let alone the Semis...

6: RCC Aruba. I see the potential in this group, but nothing's really blowing me away so far...

Progress Prediction: Say it with me: “It depends!”

5: Auzzy Blood. While there ultimately wasn't much to this that I haven't seen from other sword swallowers, this guy did have a nice chipper personality that helps him stand out from all of the other creepy weirdos of few (if any) words that we usually see doing this kind of stuff...

Progress Prediction: While America doesn't tend to vote for sideshow acts (except that one time when Howard Stern was a judge), this guy does have a SLIGHTLY better chance with his engaging personality and humble story...Still don't think he'll make the Semis...

4: Debbii Dawson. Who knew somebody could do a downbeat ABBA cover and actually make it WORK!? It almost tells a different story from the original! And she has a nice voice to boot! Maybe THIS is more in line with what “Mamma Mia!” SHOULD have been!

Progress Prediction: There's quite a bit of competition in the singing category this year, so this is a tough one to call...I guess I'll just guess Semi-Finals for now...

3: Maxence Vire. It's like a French Piff, except he doesn't need a dragon costume or a cute little dog to show off his sense of humor! I WILL say, the trick was a little convoluted, and it was a little tricky hearing what he was saying through his accent, but otherwise he has a lot of promise! Now HE is the frontrunner in the magic category for this season...

Progress Prediction: ...Nonetheless, I'm not expecting him to be the next Shin Lim or even Dustin Tavella...Simon still called him annoying, which could hurt him down the line...But if he can pull off a good enough trick next time, it will surely help him into the Semis...I can't really see him going any farther than that...

2: Bayley Graham. Well, there's no quicker way into Simon's good graces than with a “Greatest Showman” number...except maybe dogs and...well, himself! While I can tell this guy's an amazing tap dancer, I'd say he can benefit next time from a slightly more rhythmic song choice...That way, his taps will be a little more on the beat...

Progress Prediction: It's an uphill battle for him, but if he REALLY works at it, MAYBE he'll make the Semis...

1: Duo Mico. Okay, I retract my previous statement that solo aerialists are more interesting to watch...Actually, these people made the same kinds of choices that helped Alan and Aidan stand out so much, which is a unique method of hanging from the ceiling! That helped expand the kinds of tricks they were able to do, instead of the same repetitive stuff we saw from the likes of Duo Transcend...

Progress Prediction: Keep this momentum going, and THEY could be the aerial act that makes the Finals this year!

Man, this was the FRUITIEST episode yet! I don't know what fruit I would BE, but I COULD go for some plums right now...Shame they're so expensive these days...

Next week the auditions end, and the judges make their choices for the live shows that I'm SURE will be perfectly sensible and not draw any complaints whatsoever!
