We have car chase QUESTIONS!🧐
Meghan SMOLLETT's security team flagged down a random taxi cab outside of a Hertz Rental Car storefront.
The driver picked up the 3 Meghans and 1 security guy, drove them around the block for 10 minutes, then dropped them off---- back at the same Hertz storefront where he was flagged down for the pickup. $50 for a 10 minute chase.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1-What disappointing news were they reading on Doria's phone BEFORE the hoax?
Tumblr media
2-Maybe they saw The Princess of Wales was (still) TRENDING while The Meghans were the laughing stock in a Hertz dress?
Tumblr media
3-Do they look worried about SECURITY? The Meghans arranged for the paparazzi to gather outside of the Hertz storefront and the photographers were planning to follow them out for dinner.
4-Why did they irresponsibly walk through the photographers via the street level exit instead of the Hertz garage?
Tumblr media
They have been teasing the public with a car crash scene since megflix.
4-At what point during this enjoyable paparazzi frenzy did they initiate the Operation Paparazzi Chase Hoax?
Tumblr media
5-What security team would irresponsibly assign his charges to some random bright yellow NYC taxi cab in an attempt to shake off the paparazzi?
In Megflix Meghan said "safety first." She mentioned driving into a garage to avoid the invisible paparazzi.
6-So why did they seek safety in a strange vehicle instead of the Heartz garage?
The Meghans used their histrionic press release to shut down the distribution of the taxi cab photos and video footage. They claimed the photos were obtained under duress yet the driver disputes those claims.
7-So what is the real reason?
8-If they are comfortable riding in random NYC taxi cabs (with the window rolled down) then why on earth should ANY government fund the cost of their security?
9-The freelance photographers told Backgrid that 1 SUV in their convoy was recklessly driving. Was that before or after the taxi cab ride?
10-In megflix, the Meghans used video footage that violated Diana's privacy, Catherine's privacy and others. Their law suits resurrected footage that violates Chelsey Davey's privacy. It has even opened the floodgates for their suckit squad to harass Chesley online.
They dont really care about privacy rights, they care about manipulating facts to manufacture THEIR TRUTH.
No way would they give a random driver their lodging location.
11-What was the point of the 10 min trip around the block? Were they strategizing next steps?
12-What happened in 10 min around the block that made it "safe" to transfer from a strange taxi back to their SUV?
13-Where were their dinner reservations and for what time?
14-We know Meghan is capable of falling apart with tears from 1 or both eyes, so what's with her post-taxi cab facial expression?
The actress is not frightened or upset. She looks like someone searching for a rock that she can crawl underneath.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A walk of shame before an alleged 15 minute pit stop at a local NYPD station where no police report was filed. They basically stopped to get directions🤡
This seems like a psychological operation gone wrong. It reminds me of the day Meghan arranged for paparazzi to snap photos of her sitting with Ralph Lauren models (talking to the air) amongst Cressida and other members of the "glossy posse" at Wimbledon. The same week in 2016 that they want us to believe she was first introduced to Harry by Violet.
Unfortunately for her, she was assigned to the wrong seat but because she had arranged to be photographed, we were gifted with photos of her showing her complimentary ticket and angrily playing musical chairs because she was in the wrong seat.
We watched Meghan contact Serena's team (Jill Smoller) who allowed her to join them in the family box with Anna Wintour who offered her a sweater (she appeared cold wearing black SUEDE in July to advertise the off season RL dress).
My point---The Meghans arranged for the paparazzi frenzy but it backfired. The taxi cab photos and video footage expose them as liars and hoaxers.
They didn't file a police report or press charges against the big bad paparazzi.
15-Did they stop by the police precinct for damage control?
Was it a way to temporarily legitimize their hoax, thereby affording them enough time to make the front pages of the UK papers they claim to loathe?
The digital imprint and permanent digital search engines will be VICTIM Meghan in the ugly Hertz dress. Any criticism of her appearance, participation trophies or hoax is harassment because the papers were bullied (using of the "Diana Card") into printing the 1st side of the story.
"The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him." // "The first one to plead his cause seems right, Until his neighbor comes and examines him." Proverbs 18:17
Let's see how they spin themselves out of this web of lies.
Tumblr media
By the way, Sunshine Sachs represents Jussie Smollett and Tyler Perry bailed him out of jail and flew him out of Chicago to LA. Just sayin'.

Pritzker better hurry up with all of these pie-in-sky promises. The public is now aware of his entire family being up to their eyeballs in human trafficking, child sex abuse and the Mysoginistic Transgender Movement; not to forget these assholes were/are pushing Transhumanism. The Pritzkers are some very sick people.

So do your Yuus have any capability of magic?
I also have it that Yuus cannot overblot in the same way as the characters since they aren't "words on paper" so they become currupted, like Yua.
Yuuto Sakuraba
By himself? No, not at all. However thanks to Yua writing it into the story he does. He does not have free flowing magic but he can use magic that in condensed into pins (like the world ends with you psych pins). Most of his are elemental magic.
Pyxis
Only thanks to Nova who is possessing his body. He has rings that have smaller versions of magic stones in them that he can use to channel and cast magic.
Lacie Reyes
Thanks to Lilia and her past self, she has magic in a sense aka Scarum her bat "familiar". He does all her magic for her. He is made from shadows and blot so he's quite strong and that comes with a strong personality.
Leveret Faust
Nope, though DIE also has a dorm that strives to use enough advanced technology to replace the need of everyday magic to limit the accumulation of blot so they have given him prototypes to try out.
Aspen Cyfrin
He came from a world of magic so he can. Though it's rare he'd use magic in a non selfish or non showing off way (listen he's Howl with no heart aka same deal between Howl and Calcifer in the movie). He has incredibly strong and beautiful magic.
Kagero Shimizu
Yes, though he's meticulous with his magic usage. He's based on Haku from spirited away but kinda got merged with his dragon form (separate) when he was dragged into twst. Out of all the Yuus he would be magically the strongest but he tries to avoid magic use at all cost since no one at twst is Asuka (aka twsted Chihiro who he always protects)
Yua Misaki
On her own? No. Since stealing the book of origin and making a pact with Deus? Yep and her magic is strong. She literally rewrites the story of twst. It can be something as "small" as rewriting memories and causing overblots to something as big as rewriting characters or getting rid of characters (people in the world of twst) if that's what she'd like.
Makaio Keahi
New Yuu, you'll be able to tell who he is inspired from by what I write. He does not have any direct magic that he knows of. However, he does have a connection to the ocean that copies to any body/amount of water. It'll do what he wants. Why he usually keeps a bottle of sea water with him is because it's the strongest connection and therefore the strongest magic.

。+゚☆゚ LINKS: - DEMO - PINTEREST (TBA) -
[ this is a secondary wip! my main project is Unwilling Souls on @unwilling-souls-if ]
Spring Panic is an interactive story about a talented and affection-depraved spellcaster, with elements of slice-of-life. Navigate through ancestral feuds and familial pressure in a colourful magic world. You'll have to deal with extremely serious matters, such as choosing the meal of your talking cat or what flowers to grow in your garden.
Follow and shape the Main Character from birth to early adulthood, and become the best witch this world has ever seen (or don't. Maybe you'll crave something else 🌟)
TW: The game contains depictions of emotional neglect (of the MC and their brother), (optional teenage) alcohol and drug comsumption, references to bullying.
Tumblr media
。+゚☆゚ CUSTOMIZABLE PARTS:
~their name
~ gender identity with separate pronouns, and the ability to transition between childhood and teenagehood, or during teenagehood
~ general physical appearance
~ most relationships
~ magical preferences
。+゚☆゚ SET PARTS:
~ emotionnally stumped by anxiety and pressure
~ their love for their little brother and their best friend
~ sensory issues and overloads
Tumblr media
~THE FAUNEUS FAMILY— yours. [ detailed post here ]
~GATSBY. Your familiar. He's a talking black cat. And a prick.
~SANEM. A tired spirit that haunts the woods of your middle and high school. They're bored and sardonic, but at least they're like that with everyone and not just you.
~THE COUNCIL. [ detailed post TBA ]
~THE VYPERLYN FAMILY— the one your family hates. [ detailed post TBA ]
Tumblr media
note: the story follows the MC's life. Some ROs are met during their childhood, some later.
note pt2: detailed character sheets will be posted later for each RO.
。+゚☆゚ CERISE. (she/her, only romanceables by f!mc and nb!mc)
tropes: childhood friends to lovers, idiots in love
-Character sheet-
Cerise is the daughter of a witch and a fairy. The both of you had no friends. What started as a tentative first-try at friendship quickly became an unbreakable bond. Cerise wiped your tears more times than you could count, and you held her hand during hard times.
。+゚☆゚ BARTHELEMY "Please-don't-call-me-Barty" VYPERLYN (he/him)
tropes: academic rivals to lovers, possible one-sided ennemies to lovers, Romeo and Juliet/ stars-crossed lovers
Barthelemy has been made your rival by your families, your schoolmates, and the council. When they come back from a childhood abroad, they immeditaly snatch the first place that you occupied. Oddly enough, he's one of the few people that treat you with respect.
。+゚☆゚ DAPHNE (she/her)
tropes: enemies to lovers, ice queen, forbidden love
Daphne is a fairy. More than that, she's the fairy that everyone loves and fawns over. She smiles and backstabs like she breathes, and she has dug her nails in the metaphorical throne of Amaranth Institute. She wants you out of her way, but you recognize in her the familiar cracks caused by unbearable pressure.
。+゚☆゚ ASPEN (they/he)
tropes: golden child x troublemaker, secret relationship, player in love
Aspen is walking 'danger' sign. Toying with laws and rules, their sticky fingers always seem to 'borrow' the wallets of the wealthy. They are a hero to the kids of the city, a pest to the authorities, and a mystery to you. They keep theri cards close, and you sometimes closer.

Walter Franklin Anderson
Tumblr media
The grandson of formerly enslaved people, Walter Franklin Anderson, classical pianist, organist, composer, jazz musician, community activist, and academician, was born on May 12, 1915, in segregated Zanesville, Ohio. Walter was the sixth of nine children of humble beginnings.
Information regarding his parents is not available. Anderson, a child prodigy, began piano studies at age seven, and by 12, he was playing piano and organ professionally while still in elementary school. He was the only Black student to graduate from William D. Lash High School in Zanesville in 1932. Although a talented musician, Anderson was not a member of any of the school’s music ensembles, including the Glee Club or orchestra. Afterward, he enrolled in the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in Oberlin, Ohio, 100 miles north of his hometown, and received a Bachelor of Music in piano and organ in 1936. Anderson continued his studies at Berkshire (Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra) and the Cleveland Institute of Music in Cleveland, Ohio.
From 1939 to 1942, Anderson taught Applied Piano, Voice Pedagogy, and music theory at the Kentucky State College for Negroes (now Kentucky State University) in Frankfort. In 1943, Anderson married Dorothy Eleanor Ross (Cheeks) from Atlanta, Georgia. They parented two children, Sandra Elaine Anderson Mastin and David Ross Anderson, before the marriage ended in a divorce in 1945.
In 1946, Anderson was appointed the head of the music department at Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio, thus becoming the first African American named to chair a department outside of the nation’s historically black colleges. Two years later, Anderson was a Rosenwald Fellow in composition from 1948 to 1949, where his variations on the Negro Spiritual, “Lord, Lord, Lord,” was performed by the Cleveland Orchestra. Moreover, John Sebastian, the conductor of the Orchestra, commissioned him to write “Concerto for Harmonica and Orchestra” for a performance with the same orchestra. In 1950, Anderson’s composition, “D-Day Prayer Cantata,” for the sixth anniversary of the World War II invasion, was performed on a national CBS telecast. In 1952, Anderson received the equivalent of a doctoral degree as a fellow of the American Guild of Organists. He left his administrative post at Antioch College in 1965.
In 1969, Anderson was named director of music programs at the National Endowment for the Arts, where he created model funding guidelines and pioneered the concept of the challenge grant. In addition, he spearheaded numerous projects and developed ideas at the then-new agency for supporting music creation and performance, specifically for orchestras, operas, jazz, and choral ensembles and conservatories.
Anderson was the recipient of four honorary doctorates in music over his professional career, including one from Berea College in Berea, Kentucky, in 1970. He retired from NEA in 1983. During this period, he became a presidential fellow at the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies and a recipient of the Cleveland Arts Prize for Distinguished Service to the Arts. In 1993, the American Symphony Orchestra League recognized Anderson as one of 50 people whose talents and efforts significantly touched the lives of numerous musicians and orchestras. He was also a member of the Advisory Council to the Institute of the Black World at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Center.

List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore 💙
Yay! I'm finally going through my asks, lookit me go! We'll start this week with the winner of the poll... The one and only ✨Dawn Stephens✨
Tumblr media
💖She has a Sociology degree from Foxbury Institute. She did not graduate with a high GPA, in fact she barely passed. She’s very smart, but genuinely hates reading and studying. She is the type of person that likes to be up doing things all the time. She struggles to just sit quietly. If she’s going to sit for an extended period of time, then it’s usually to watch a movie or a favorite TV show (with someone else, never alone). Even then, she’ll likely be distracting you the whole time.
💖During college, Dawn dated a lot, and had a lot of relationships that were short lived and full of drama. To be honest, being so heavily neglected growing up had left her desperate for love and affection. Most of the guys she dated wanted to date around and have fun and enjoy their college years, but Dawn would become instantly attached and clingy which would drive them away. It took her a while to work through this phase in her life, to understand why she felt/acted the way she did, and what she really needed. Before meeting Phoenix, she hadn’t dated anyone in nearly a year and was finally in a good place. That coupled with the fact that Phoenix is a very present and attentive partner means we’ve never seen that needier side of Dawn.
💖The necklace that she wears everyday was a gift from her high school best friend, Claire. Feeling rebellious one weekend, the two of them hopped a bus to visit a mall (strictly forbidden, of course). Claire caught her eyeing the necklace and bought it for her. Unfortunately, Dawn was never able to wear the necklace because A – she wasn’t allowed to wear jewelry and B – she would’ve had to explain where she’d gotten it. When she and Atlas left, Claire stopped talking to her, just like everyone else, and they’ll likely never speak again. But wearing the necklace now is kind of a symbol of her freedom from that life.
💖She loves the process of getting her nails done but can’t stand them afterwards. Every once in a while, you’ll see her with long painted nails, but they never last long because she removes them after a few days. (fun fact: she has beautifully manicured nails when she gives birth to Aspen because I forgot to remove them from her swimwear after their Sulani vacation. I didn’t want to risk messing up the childbirth process by going into CAS to fix it… so let’s just say she had her nails done while in labor, cos why not?)
💖There is an intentional inconsistency in the story that I doubt anyone noticed, it’s such a small detail… In this scene, Dawn mentions having a dog growing up: “He was a miniature schnauzer named Snickerdoodle. [giggles] But I would call him DooDoo.” … But then later, in this scene, it’s stated that Atlas has never had a dog: “He’s not used to dogs. In fact, he’s never had a pet of any kind before, so he isn’t sure what to do.” These two grew up in the same home, so what's the deal? Who was Snickerdoodle? This was actually Claire’s dog, and Dawn was absolutely smitten by him and would pretend to herself that it was her dog. (And she did in fact get in trouble once for saying DooDoo.)

Grave Robber Looted 2,400-Year-Old Tomb in China — But Left Treasures Behind
In a cemetery in central China, a grave robber started to dig. The thief tunneled into an ancient tomb, stole some artifacts and vanished. The robbery, however, was only partially successful.
When archaeologists excavated the looted tomb, they realized the robber had left some rare treasures behind.
The Taosi Relic Site and Cemetery is a massive ancient cemetery in Shanxi Province that may have as many as 10,000 tombs, according to a 2018 news release from China Archaeology Network. Excavations of the cemetery have been ongoing for years, but archaeologists have only explored a fraction of the site.
During these excavations, archaeologists uncovered a 2,400-year-old tomb that had been looted by a grave robber, according to a Jan. 21 news release from CCTV News via the Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the China Archaeology Network.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The robber had entered the tomb in 2016 through a hole in one corner, the institute said. The thief stole artifacts from this corner but left most of the grave undisturbed.
Archaeologists unearthed a large number of high-quality artifacts from the 2,400-year-old tomb. They found a set of 16 chimes engraved with sayings, weapons and jade artifacts.
A photo shows some of the ancient musical instruments found in the tomb.
The tomb also contained a bronze drum base, archaeologists said. The base has a hollow shape where a drum would be inserted. Measuring about 33 inches across, the newly found base is among the largest of these types of artifacts ever found in China.
Based on the artifacts found in the 2,400-year-old tomb, archaeologists believe the tomb belongs to a high-ranking aristocrat with significant power.
Officials recovered some bronze artifacts stolen from the Taosi Cemetery in 2022, the institute said.
Taosi Relic Site and Cemetery is in Shanxi Province and about 250 miles southwest of Beijing.
