The other day I had a vision of what looked like Elmer Fudd from Looney Tunes but then also changed into a Leprechaun 🍀 without a hat 🎩😂… to be completely honest BOTH characters were not wearing hats. What he/they were doing puzzled me and took me sometime to decipher…
Tumblr media
He was putting 3 nails into a coffin ⚰️ 🔩🪛 then I saw the word BULL written in old English.
Tumblr media
What does this mean for someone…
A man has put an end to a toxic situation. This could be at 3 situations or 3 men. Because, these men have ended this or these situations in which they found themselves hurt and wounded, blessings will be coming in. They heard and obeyed God’s guidance �� and that ALWAYS comes with a reward 🏆
You see people of God, sometimes the blessings God has for you won’t come in until you’ve taken the steps to cut ties with those who bring pain, suffering and evil in your life and these men have realized their blocking their own blessings ✨
Congratulations to whoever this message is for. The four leaf clover 🍀 has some significance here for whoever this message is for. Also the colours green and red. The Bull too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Something good will happening for these men in the month of December 🎄
Please confirm this word with God.
Tumblr media
UPDATE:
Elmer is from the Warner BROS… as in BROTHERS
I can’t lawd ha mercyyyyy
Tumblr media
Eh…. But you will NOT FAIL.

I’m not sure what’s been going on with Picard season 2. And it’s clear the writers don’t know either. The characters have run all over Los Angeles chasing clues, red herrings, and MacGuffins. Maybe the season is a metaphor for the LA Freeway system - going every which way and getting nowhere.
With only two episodes left they will have to wrap things up quickly.
Will it end with Picard and his ancestor at the the launch pad?
The Borg Queen and Agnes singing another song?
Will Dana Sculley show up to help Mulder and Picard?
Will Q lose his place in line and be forced to go to the end of the Queue?
Will the replicator cake cause the boy to have intestinal blockage and die?
Or perhaps it will end with a Cliff-hanger for Riker, Geordi and Worf to resolve next season.
I’m not sure I’ll be there to find out.

CONCERT REVIEW: KATELYN TARVER W/ ROSIE DARLING AT THE WISE HALL - SEPTEMBER 9, 2023
Tumblr media
Adorned with a canopy of lights, the high ceilings and cozy lighting of The Wise Hall were a fitting atmosphere for the Compliments Only Tour. It was an intimate crowd, but one that gave their undivided attention to both Katelyn Tarver and Rosie Darling on their Saturday night in East Vancouver.
I’d been familiar with Rosie Darling since her release “Nail in the Coffin” (with Boy in Space) appeared on my Spotify Discover Weekly earlier this year. Since then, I’d been getting acquainted with her music; therapeutic for both Rosie in her craft, and her listeners. She made her entrance to ethereal nature sounds and immediately invited the audience closer to the stage for opener “Reruns.”
Her music is very chill, singer-songwriter pop with an emotional gut-punch. Many of her songs are short in length, so they’re compact, but memorable. Her breathy edge is distinct in “Say Less.” “Villain” was released a couple of weeks ago, and while it’s aesthetic in sound, its message is even more important. About understanding and finding peace after the breakdown of a relationship, it references blame, responsibility and ultimately letting go. Rosie has a very calming presence as she moves on stage; she’s still coming into her own as a performer, using her free arm to bring in the audience. She’ll clutch at her torso on emotional lines and shut her eyes mid-track, imploring us to feel that ache with her.  
Tumblr media
She sang “Nail in the Coffin” (sans Boy in Space) and “Witness.” The latter was introduced as an “older one” given its release in April 2021. Rosie’s keyboardist Mike Nardone (who I believe was also responsible for the programmed beats) genuinely looked like he was having fun, and I loved how her music was able to build in layers but still allow her voice to shine. The piano accompaniment was lovely, especially towards the end of the dreamy “Lost on You.” They weren’t wearing their matching red jumpsuits (or pantsuits) in Vancouver though, Rosie opting for a bronze silkier set; although still a penchant for the hair bow and oversized pajama pieces that give her a comfortable, chic style.
Since the release of her debut EP Coping (Nettwerk Records), she’s released a number of singles and the EP Golden Age in 2022. Her debut album Lanterns will be released November 10 (not mistakenly, a word woven into the lyrics of “Villain”). “Boxes” was introduced as an “emotional one [to] get through together,” and that we did. Her voice as lush and soothing as ever, breaking free from confines and learning to value herself.
Tumblr media
She closed her set with the somber and much underrated “Coping.” Rosie has a delicate voice with a potent, effervescent kick. Her lyrical depth and visualization are notable, and her music feels like both an anthem and a lullaby. I was impressed by how close she sounded to her recorded music; Rosie Darling is one to watch.
Katelyn Tarver had an unassuming entrance; right into the keys for the beginning of “What Makes a Life Good,” before taking the microphone and working the stage. Instantly, you can see her connection with the music and the questions she poses (“Is it taking someone's broken heart and knowing how to fix it? Is it becoming a mother? Is it learning to be tougher?”). This is a prime example of the big picture outlook in her lyrics; they have meaning and are given much thought.
Throughout her set, she shifted between her trusty mic, keyboard, and acoustic and electric guitars. “Cinematic” was soft and sentimental, while “Hurt Like That” revelled in its instrumental breaks (and driving guitar lines). Katelyn had such a comfortable stage presence; she feels the words and music, and in doing so, allows herself to let go and dance. She’s a natural performer.
Tumblr media
The soulful, R&B inflicted “Nicer” makes use of her piercing upper register, while “Shit Happens” is a weighty piano ballad. She spoke about the journey to write “Shit Happens,” in navigating the unforgiving music industry and wanting to make it. It was a special song on her 2021 album, Subject to Change. Katelyn spent time conversing with the audience, showing off her new boots and explaining the concept of ‘compliments only’ starting out as a joke between friends and family. “Compliments are underrated,” she remarked, before providing ones for guitarist Ryland Holland (who kindly steamed her shirt before the show) and drummer Chris Bellew (who was in Canada for the very first time, which she conceded was more of a fun fact than a compliment).
I loved getting to hear my favourite KT song, “Starting to Scare Me,” live. It’s dark and blunt, but has the most incredible rhythm and flow. “Love Alone” was on her debut EP, A Little More Free, circa 2011. She noted its importance as her first original work and having that ownership over her music. This was a beautiful song, just Katelyn and her acoustic guitar. With this song in particular because of its age, I can see her growth as a musician. I’ve seen an older rendition where she sounded more strained vocally to reach the higher notes, but she sings a softer version now that is gentler and uses her warm spirit.
She sang a powerful cover of Paramore’s “The Only Exception” (a song she loves so much, that she recorded and released her version last year), before moving to her new material. “Ignorance is Bliss” was released the day prior. I’d liken it to a bittersweet pop cut that makes us question our reality, and possibly enter an existential crisis. Katelyn reassured that the new music meant she is heading towards a new album, Quitter (Nettwerk Records), which drew cheers from the crowd.
Tumblr media
“One Without the Other” was the missing link for the album to feel complete, while the title track was an upbeat charmer about reflecting on the past, present and future, and living for herself – not for others. I could tell she was excited to share the new music in her first headlining tour. She expressed that gratitude a few times through her set, stating it’s still “weird” to do what she does for a living and put herself out there, but thankful that fans have stuck with her.
Closing with the recently released “Parallel Universe,” she capped the night off perfectly. The use of shakers during the verses added character and I liked the subtlety. There were a couple moments where both the drums and guitar kicked in and I felt like it overpowered Katelyn’s voice (like during “Out of Excuses”), but for the most part, it remained clear and vivid. Her music is both compelling and poetic, and she embodies her stories as a performer.
It was a great night of music at The Wise Hall by two angel artists. I say angels as both were gracious and stayed to meet and interact with fans post-show. It’s by no means mandatory nor expected, but it says a lot about an artist’s integrity and certainly adds to the concert experience to get to speak with the musicians outside of any minor stage interactions. Both were receptive and kind, and I can’t wait until Katelyn and Rosie make their returns to Vancouver.

E3's Dead, Again
After weeks of speculation of E3's cancellation, earlier this evening Reedpop and ESA confirmed that both the digital and physical events for this year's E3 are cancelled.
Tumblr media
This comes as no shock after reports months ago that the major gaming studios would have no presence on the show floor this year, and since then smaller publishers followed suit – nailing the coffin for what was once gaming's biggest convention. But E3 didn't "die" overnight, it's the making of a decade's worth of events cascading like dominos towards an inevitable demise.
Technically E3 has "died" many times over in the minds of some. People said E3 "died" in 2013 when Nintendo stopped doing press conferences. A large amount of people say E3 "died" in 2017 when it was opened to the general public, whereas before it had always been a press only event. This decision blurred the line on who the audience was for the event for years to come. E3 "died" again in 2019 when Sony pulled away from the show, and that year also saw a large data breach of press that attended the 2019 event and data of press that attended in years past. The pandemic in 2020 caused the first cancellation of E3, but even before the pandemic the ESA's plans for the E3 event were heavily criticized.
Between the ESA coming under fire in recent years of anti-consumer practices, a shifted landscape where digital showcases are the more practical and cost effective solution to gaming announcements, and the fact that it's very much in favor for the larger gaming companies to not hold showcases so close to each other, whether E3 can rise from the ashes remains to be seen.
But for now, yes, E3 is indeed dead.

sorry i'm not done but how can you just drop this bombshell that malleus literally used to hate humans, that he'd refer to silver as "that thing" , that he thought lilia should've just dropped off the baby with some humans and move on with his life!!
and yet!! it was malleus who ordered the castle to have baby food delieverd to lilia's place for him, and it was malleus who'd sneak out whenever he could to come see silver and make sure lilia was taking care of him okay. and it was malleus who was so, so gentle teaching silver and sebek magic where lilia was so very crude
and after 17 years of malleus quietly loving him in his own modest way, it was ultimately the boy's tears - that thing's tears - that drove him to stop time and freeze the world over

PSA for any writers who need to hear this, having a character finally remove themselves from a toxic relationship that naerly drove them to suicide, letting them learn how to enjoy life again and love and be love outside of the narrow world they had been living in for so long, and then killing them anyway to further the emotional arc of the person they were in a toxic relationship in is not, in fact, narratively satisfying at all

I just realized something:
Cloud enlisted for SOLDIER at 14 (and then failed the exam but he DID enlist. This means it was legally or at least procedurally allowed).
Sephiroth, in First Soldier, states that Shinra is using him to promote their recruitment policy change.
Tumblr media
This could mean Shinra lowered the recruitment age thanks to Sephiroth's mission. 'Look at this amazing hero! Look at all he's done! Don't you want to be just like him? Well with the SOLDIER program, you can! Even at 14 years old, you can become a hero too!" Or something like that.
My point is, I think First Soldier did tell us how old Sephiroth was.
Sephiroth is fourteen: the new minimum recruitment age.
This matches up with the Jenova project dates. Jenova was confirmed an ancient on 7/7/1977. The Jenova Project was approved 9/13/1977. First Soldier takes place 1992. It all tracks.
