unend 3.13 spoilers
tl:dr; Steve reached behind the cloud of unknowing, turned around, and said "hey Merlin, nobody knows or cares how magnets work." And now Merlin's aware of the cosmic mystery in a way that's put him on the verge of becoming a supervillain.
I was trying to think of an equivalent to The Boc Factory in our lives. Like. What are we so fundamentally uncurious about that to examine it breaks us mentally? And then I thought, well shit, the gender binary can feel that "inevitable" and "obvious." But then I got more granular, and started contemplating the ubiquity of things like magnetism, and weather, and sleep. Gravity and brain chemistry and cell division and time and cause & effect. "What goes up must come down," but nobody really knows why. Yes, gravity is about electromagnetics. But how the hell does electromagnetics work? No time to think about it too hard, we'll never get anything done. We have neuroscience for that.
The cosmos — our nonfictional one — is vast and elaborate, held together with a set of laws that we may never fully grasp. And cult leaders know how to spin that so it grips us with fear and anger, rather than awe and appreciation.
And that's why Steve sucks so bad and I hope Cleo banishes him to wherever the hell he came from.
So I just simultaneously did, and possibly didn't lose my job today :)
Very much did in the sense that I literally do not know where my job is at the moment. But, for the time being I haven't been let go because nobody else including the store owner knows where it is either.
So, I don't wanna risk doxxing myself by posting pictures but goddamn am I tempted because this is not a believable event. This is a cartoon problem. For looneytoons.
But yeah, so, I work(ed?) at a kiosk selling boba tea, right? Freestanding kiosk in the mall with full water and electrical hookups and multiple fridges and sinks and a mini kitchen and the works. Fully functional tea shop. Very important to note that it was there last night, The work chat was discussing another issue last night at closing time. I'll get back to this.
It's been showing signs of being on the way out with how business is being handled lately and I've been considering other options, which is probably why I'm not as torn up about this as I should be, but maybe it just hasn't set in yet, but that's not the point. The point is there's been a lot of shit breaking and not being replaced and nobody mentioning anything about it until I walk into work in the morning and have to figure out why shit like the fucking cash register isn't there today. So I'm kinda used to having to ask questions about big things that nobody bothered to update me on. I was out for two weeks recovering from a surgery, so I came to work this morning assuming there'd be some kind of bullshit, yeah?
So, the question I had to ask the chat this morning was:
Not a text I ever thought I'd have to send in sincerity, but there it is. Because what I found instead was a fenced off patch of discolored tiles and a few holes in the floor where my entire place of employment used to be.
And the answer? Nobody knows! It was there last night when the mall closed, and every single trace of the structure and all its contents including drink making supplies and our safe and cashbox was gone when it opened again. And when I say nobody knows, I mean everyone from last night's closers to the actual (former?) owner of the store jad no fucking clue about this until getting that text from me this morning. For once I am actually the first to know. 🎉.
So. I guess I didn't so much lose my job as had it stolen. Not by AI, but good old fashioned hands-on human beings picking it up and carrying it away somehow. All mall security would tell me was that they were instructed not to tell me anything and have us contact our management. Who also don't know anything. And later on I came across some construction workers around the gravesite of the kiosk discussing filling in the holes, asked them about it, and was told that they "weren't at liberty to say".
So, not only is my job gone in the most literal physical sense of the word, but it was taken in some kind of super secret kiosk extraction in the dead of night without any warning or witnesses and nobody is allowed to speak of it. The store owner said she was gonna figure it out 10 hours ago and still no word back.
I don't know what else to say aside from I've been laughing all day and I'm gonna have a hell of a time explaining Schrodinger's Unemployment to the benefits office.
Update that is not an update because I'm basically certain this isn't what actually happened:
My mother in law thinks the FBI took it.
Not any of the other stores around the state. Just the one little kiosk.
Why? Because she loves a conspiracy and is just a little bit extra.
Also because she was around for the massive crackdown on Yakuza-owned businesses in Waikiki (in her homestate) that did actually involve the FBI seizing stores (no confirmation of making kiosks cleanly disappear in the middle of the night though).
Still no word from my job on what's actually going on, but the most likely theory so far is that maybe the kiosk was on lease and got repossessed? The mystery continues
(also shout out to the person who proposed Carmen Sandiego)
ACTUAL (partial) UPDATE:
According to the owner, based on what she's been able to find out, the kiosk was not removed legally and they're starting a potentially long process of legal action. I hope she gets to sue the shit out of whoever did it but for now at least I know for sure I'm unemployed.
Really hoping for more details in terms of who/why/how, so I'll keep updating if I learn anything.
For now the summary is: An unnamed entity that is most likely mall management (on account of mall security cooperating with them) stole an entire kiosk and all the contents including money and machinery with barely a trace in the middle of the night grinch-style, with zero warning or explanation, and ensured the silence of both security and the construction crew, in an action that was definitely preplanned and illegal, and as far as I know nobody knows its whereabouts.
So now I'm officially out of a job. Because my workplace was literally stolen in the night.
Actually fuck it let's share some photos cause I wouldn't be inclined to believe this myself. It's not like anyone can stalk me at my job now and I'm not gonna have to see any coworkers that might find my tumblr.
Enjoy the unintentionally funniest text I've ever sent in my life

there's a venn diagram shared by hj/lavonte, jayce/viktor, and reno/rude but what lies in the center on my very life i could not say
i wonder if the paradoxical "Release control, accept the journey" is inspired by buddhism, the way that Mothers are trained to not feel emotions (clinging, the source of suffering) and such. Though of course for them it's more about not agitating the Fold more so than to achieve freedom from the cycle of reincarnation. Realization could have some parallels to the enlightenment that leads to nirvana, as well

So my good pal @scorching-sun-shelters-snake has just listened to the first season of Midst, and we both agree that the best part about Midst's narration is that the Third Person won't simply tell you that a character walks into the room.
No, that character foots gingerly across the threshold of the room, placing the first tentative step onto the fine wooden floorboards of the establishment. [Narrator 2] And it is a fine establishment indeed, if we do say so ourselves. It has this sort of a classy, refined look to it, with the draperies embroidered with fantastical designs, with a tasteful, dark wallpaper that has an equally elaborate, delicate pattern etched into it, with what looks like tiny... Sequins? Peppered in here and there, which reflect the dim light making its way in through the half-drawn curtains, it's- it's really lavish. [Narrator 1] Whoever designed it must have had incredibly good taste. [Narrator 3] Oh, yes, and in fact, off of these very fine walls of this very, very fine establishment, there reverberates a sound- a creak, of the fine, dark wooden floorboard that our character has currently found himself stepping onto. [Narrator 2] You'd think that in an establishment as fine as this, the floorboards wouldn't creak, what with the impeccable state this establishment seems to be kept in- [Narrator 3] And, you'd actually be somewhat correct, because this, this was done on purpose. The architect of this place- [Narrator 1] a guy called Mark, really swell guy - [Narrator 2] Has some VERY nice children!- [Narrator 3] -HE has been specifically asked, to install this one floorboard that would creak when you walk in. [Narrator 2] To sort of, suss out who's the regular and who's not, you know, as they walk in. Clever, isn't it? [Narrator 3] A little bit... Weird, maybe, but Mark wasn’t paid to question the commissioner's choices, he was there to do his job and god damn it did he do it well. [Narrator 2] Yeah, what a swell guy! [Narrator 1] Our character, of course, doesn’t know any of this. We know this. [Narrator 3] You know this. [Narrator 2] Because we've just told you. [Narrator 1] But, because he doesn't know this, his entire elaborate scheme, his entire highly classified stealth mission- [Narrator 3] Goes to shit in this very instant. [Cue funky music]

i keep rotating it in my mind that the veilguard Conceptualization of slavery is like
slavery is bad, and therefore, the majority of the population knows this, and is against it! and slavers are extremely obviously and exaggeratedly evil, and will be using their slaves as human furniture, so you know that it's just needless cruelty for the sake of it. and this is all in the context of the Redeemable Democratically Reformable Empire, where the average people at the bread markets (we are not going to question who bakes the bread or harvests the wheat or grinds the flour) are nice. so therefore slavery is not actually intrinsically tied to the economy, it's just this evil act that people do purely bc they are villains.
however. if you blood magic bind solas and use him as a sort of forcible battery to hold up the veil.... that's fine, bc it is actually for the greater good to support the continued existence of the bread markets. even though this should actually be considered as enslavement or forced captivity. which is even sadder if you consider that he was the most anti-slavery character in the games up to that point.
so then the conclusion incoherently becomes like... slavery is actually ok, as long as it can be justified as being in other people's benefit(?) and the person being held against their will is Problematic and Not Nice To You(?). putting my head in my hands and lying down on the floor and rolling myself down the street like a tumbleweed.
please write the paper ;0; i would read it ;0;
