#why do people think shipping containers are the cure to every issue????#unless youre filling them with sand theyre not bulletproof#and theres no fucken roof
Fill the shipping containers with concrete to make Giant Bricks
shipping containers are also not that strong and also only cheap/relatively accessible to use if you live somewhere where shipping containers just end up
Fun fact about shipping container houses is that because so many shipping containers are used to transport hazardous materials and are unsuitable to live in for contamination reasons, it's often easier to make them out of entirely new, unused shipping containers than to source appropriate second hand ones. Which destroys the entire purpose of shipping container houses. Because we already know how to make rooms that are cheaper, better insulated, and more spacious and easy to acquire and transport than brand new shipping containers.

Google is transforming Search from a list of links into an AI-powered experience filled with conversational answers, autonomous agents, and
The era of the “ten blue links” is officially over.
At its Google I/O conference on Tuesday, Google unveiled an AI-powered overhaul of Search centered around a reimagined “intelligent search box” — what the company describes as the biggest change to this entry point to the web since the search box debuted more than 25 years ago.
Instead of returning a simple list of links, Google Search will drop users into AI-powered interactive experiences at times. Google is also introducing tools that can dispatch “information agents” to gather information on a user’s behalf, along with tools that let users build personalized mini apps tailored to their needs.
The resulting experience will no longer look much like how people envision Google Search, which has long been defined by ranked links to websites that have the information you need.
With the revamped Search experience, the new search box simply expands to accommodate longer, more conversational queries, rather than making you decide what type of search experience or mode you want to choose at the start of your query. It will also have a new AI-powered query suggestion system that goes beyond autocomplete to help people craft more complex and nuanced queries, Google says.
Google’s AI Overviews will also allow users to ask follow-up questions in AI Mode, beginning Tuesday, the company noted.

So. We love the “Jason is Liminal/half-dead/a reverent” thing and having it affect his interactions with Danny.
But we are missing a great thing:
Hal Jordan was the Specter when he was Dead. Hal was half of one of the most powerful supernatural beings in the DC universe. The Spector, who was only outlived by Wonder Woman in the Future State comics. Hal was a ghost sharing a body with a ghost/Angel and actively reforming this vengeance being/spirit into a Justice Being/spirit.
I propose that Hal should be just as effected by Ghost King stuff or general Danny-Ghost-Weirdness.
Sorry it took so long to reply to your awesome ask.
But I'm not sure Ghost King! Danny would be able to sense the ghost-ness? of other characters in the DC universe since there are so many types of supernatural beings in the comics. I think it's a very cool idea but at the end of the day, a boy can only have so many powers.
Would he know? Most likely. Would his ghost sense go off in his presence? I don't think it would. But this would be a really cool one shot. Danny just getting into the Big Hero League and he is now finding out there are a lot more living dead people than his small town self knew. If he could sense them all I think he would go crazy like he did with the Box Ghost.
Or
If there was another ghost of villain that could control the dead, maybe it would affect all the living dead characters in the DC universe and Danny would have to figure out a way to stop him from turning everyone into a full ghost. Potentially. Who knows, It would be really cool to see that though. But in my professional head canon opinion, I think some things are a good surprise for an up in coming hero.
Gonna be honest Jason should've been more powerful than Percy and the only reason he wasn't is because Percy's the main character. Don't get me wrong, I love Percy, but like. Jason's the son of the king of the gods who is also king of everything. He was training as a soldier nonstop ever since he was a BABY unlike Percy who only had five summers. He is literally the leader of all of the Romans. He defeated a Titan (Krios) pretty much by himself. He can fly and he has insane lightning powers. HE WAS RAISED BY MAGIC WOLVES. He literally had to be unconscious half the time to justify him not doing anything.
Even if he's not MORE powerful he should at least be equally powerful. He should've been able to go toe-to-toe with Percy without issue. Like come on now. What are we doing
Dude the amount of times I've gotten pissed over this-
LIKE HE WAS RAISED BY LUPA AND HAD TRAINING FROM A VERY YOUNG AGE AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT HE CAN'T SEE A BRICK COMING TO HIS HEAD FROM X DISTANCE AWAY???
I understand that it was a running gag BUT IT JUST GOT DISRESPECTFUL TOWARDS THE END. If it were a few times i would be laughing. WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE GETS HIT IN THE HEAD MULTIPLE TIMES LIKE. I can't. I need to calm down before I blow up, like, physically.
AND YES, HE WOULD'VE BEEN SUPER POWERFUL, but since it was a pj book he was cast aside (but I do believe that he could've been left as a powerful kid without undermining percy as a character. IT COULD HAVE BEEN DONE. WE WERE DEPRAVED. okay im going, jeez.)
okay so, guy at work, who i find out afterwards is famous at this place for being a sex pest, comes up and starts with what i also learn is his favorite opener to conversations where he’s going to be a sex pest, namely: “Do you know where the term ‘blow job’ comes from?”
and here he made his first fatal error. his moment of hubristic sex pesting. because of course i know where the term blow job comes from, i love learning about sex and the history of sexual terms! i know so much about oral sex that i could write a book on it!
his second error: approaching a little autistic freak with what he intended to be an uncomfortable sex question that would make me feel weird and gross. Friends, Romans, Countrymen, I Have Never Misjudged A Man’s Intentions So Incredibly In My Life. because i did not realize he was trying to harass me. because i love talking about sex facts, albeit not usually at work. unless. someone prompts me. my coworkers are the kind of people who are generally online enough to know terms, but not exactly what they mean, and they realized they could ask me a while back and get good answers without the resulting awkwardness because i do not experience shame. i am primed to answer questions like the one he has proposed.
So I Answered It.
and well, really, what happened is that I began answering it, then realized the answer required a bit more context. I mean, you can’t just say “oh, well, the term first appears in writing in the 1940s” without first explaining that ‘blow’ by itself already had sexual connotations for centuries, and then, really, are we talking about the origin of the term or the origin of the act. and well we have a ton of literature and art depicting fellatio throughout human history, did you know a lot of it was men performing it on other men? oh, that reminds me, there are a multitude of latin words for oral sex performed on penises, and hold on let me quote you the entirety of catullus 16 from memory and explain it’s fascinating insights into the roman world of homosexuality-
i do not know how to turn any of this ^ off, by the way. i’m sure some people out there have a switch that disables their infodumping mid-speech. i do not. and i also didn’t realize he wasn’t looking for a real answer until my other coworker explained so hours later. he could not excuse himself from the conversation he started, and i made a conservative man at least 30 years older than me to listen to my catullus recitation. i will sodomize and facefuck you, indeed.
anyway, i think i got a bad grade in being sexually harassed. my pro tip is maybe don’t start with what a very autistic individual will misconstrue as you earnestly asking them to explain sex to you. the special interest shield will cause splashback damage.
if you live in mainland united states or know people who do and vaguelywhere they are, PLEASE click this link. please look at this weather map. I do not habe the strength to transcribe it or give better information because of a medical treatment today
if you are in the yellow (tornado watch) you likely need to seek shelter NOW. illinois just apparently recorded the biggest hail stone in the state's history
if you know anyone in the yellow or in the path of the yellow (tornado watch) or pink (severe thunderstorm watch) or orange (severe thunderstorm warning) or red dots (tornado warnings, try not to mistake them for the blizzard warning) you need to inform them that this storm cell is extremely dangerous and in many cases is a 4/5 tornado danger like the area centered around chicago
there is an extremely long line of tornado watches (tornado may soon exist here) and tornado warnings (tornado currently exists here) almost the entire height of mainland US, hundreds of miles wide
depending on where you are and what your local conditions ar, put on sturdy shoes (steel toed if you can) and a coat, grab a flashlight, find whatever helmet you can. or whatever you need to do to prepare for a flood ± tornado ± really bad storm. this is the highest tornado risk this year so far
please stay safe

this live video stream will likely eventually go down and be replaced with another live stream from ryan hall
in many places in the united states, tornado watches and warnings are NOT being issued in time to save lives due to burget cuts and people are dying because they cannot seek adequate shelter in time. ryan hall issues hyper local tornado watches and warnings and alerts in many case many minutes sooner than the national weather service (if they ever catch up) while giving hyper local reference areas such as "the tornado is headed towards the church on church hill road street, which is also close to the best buy in electronics plaza"

so my mom's been clearing out her mom's house in order to sell it and has been gifting me a lot of random odds and ends from it— cut crystal jewelry, rose scented soaps, a brita pitcher, etc— but she also just emptied that house's entire spice cabinet and just dumped it all in a box and brought it to me to pick through bc i do a lot of cooking/baking. and. people. listen. most of it was 5, 10, even 20 years past its expiration date. but nothing could have prepared me for this one tiny tin of white pepper.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but...this pepper has been expired almost as long as I've been alive. I was two when this pepper went bad.
This pepper was presumably purchased during the last two years of the Reagan administration. It expired during George H. W. Bush's first year in office. This pepper went bad within like two months of the Berlin Wall coming down.
The US has fought two entire wars with Iraq since this pepper expired.

Chapter 5/11 of Bait and Switch, a Danny Phantom fanfic written for Invisobang 2025
Summary: Danny finds the note on his bed around the same time as Valerie realizes Star is missing. Getting kidnapped by a random ghost wasn’t on Star’s bucket list, but even once it’s clear she’s bait to draw in the Red Huntress and Phantom, something still doesn’t add up. After all, she’s no more important to them than the next person—right?
I was paired with two fantastic artists, @mysteryhat21art and @paxopalotls, and they both did artwork for this chapter. You can find it in the chapter on AO3 and on their tumblrs. (MysteryHat's artwork | Pax's artwork)
