Also Sora seems to know full well what PL get up to, and how much chaos they end up being wrapped up in, and is like "...eh, it's life" and still happily takes part because they're doing the right thing and also she loves Texas and wants to support her doing the right thing too?
Hm, Sora doesn't seem to have any VA lines referencing Lappland either. Wonder if there's any details I'm missing out on so far?

Oh wait I forgot about Sora! Sora is clearly VERY close to Texas, and vice versa. so maybe like... Sora and Texas are in a relationship? Texas left the mob for her own reasons but joined Penguin Logistics, despite the fact she seems to be the only level headed one there with the rest being kinda trigger-happy hotheads (except Sora of course), she sticks around. Exusiai and Sora mellow her out, Sora and her hook up?

I think that basically... Texas and Lappland used to be in the employ or part of the Siracusian mob, Texas noped the fuck out because "fuck this shit" i guess. Either way she seems to want to help people rather than kill people, as much as possible.
Lappland on the other hand seems to get off on it I guess. She's creepy D: But has joined RI as well?
Exusiai doesn't seem to have any voice lines re: Lappland tho.

so Texas and Exusiai are clearly an item. i mean... probably. fuck it it's like touhou, all are lesbiabs.
But either way, yeah very much Girlfriends vibes for them two. Texas and Lappland have... prior history. I get a Spike Spiegel and Vicious vibe from the pair of them (with Lappland clearly being Vicious), since they're both clearly ex-Siracusian mob. Lappland talks about bringing back "the old Texas".
Texas clearly dislikes Lappland too. so... I think ...

Console Exclusive Series - Scott Pilgrim Vs The World - Suburban Tram. Honestly, that game had such an amazing soundtrack and it's bloody criminal it hasn't been rereleased on other platforms than Xbox 360 and PS3 and is no longer available. Anamanaguchi pulled an absolute blinder with this soundtrack, blending chiptunes and conventional instruments, as they always do, in a wonderful soundscape. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YCMBIgvFTc
1/2 Didn't realise until now but a lot of Angela Davis's work is available to read for free online, if you are not able to get a physical copy. She's a very clear writer I think and easy to get to grips with even if this kind of writing is new to you.

So, a while ago, Miq's mum bought some personalised cups for the house, three of them, with an initial for each of us.
However what we didn't expect was that they wouldn't have any handles. They're really nice mugs, but because of the lack of handles, somewhat useless for any hot drink as a result.
As such I've taken to using them to measure rice for our rice/slow cooker. So they stand for Rice, More Rice, and Probably Too Much Rice.

So, here's the thing: sometimes, as a white person, I'll see a post written by someone who is non-white that comes directly for me. Not in a targeted "I am calling out this specific person" way, but in a "They are talking about patterns of behaviour that describe my own actions" way. And that sucks! I get this awful feeling in the pit of my stomach because I see that this person is talking about me!
You know what I do with that feeling?
I accept it. Yes. They're talking about me. What can I do about that? What are immediate actions I can take to fix this problem? Do I need to apologize to anyone? Are there voices I can boost talking about this issue?
You know what I DON'T do with that feeling?
Hop into the person's menchies and start making a fuss.
I'm not gonna say "It's not hard, people!" because it is. It's hard work. But it's worth it.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
