Drone Wars? 😝

That’s also tap dancing around the whole doctor/patient confidentiality rule too! Let’s see, modify the pre-op instructions to be; no food or drink for 12 hrs, and no neko cum within 24hrs, before the procedure. Hahaha 🤪

Giving us all a “second opinion “ there? 😆

I’d say at least one swing from each parent/guardian of the abused and then two from/for the kids abused. Hmmm 🤔, and any extras anyone wanted after that. Perhaps a silver clad nail given to each of the affected, to be set with a jab then driven home with the bat?? 👿 It’s a special Townhall feedback with the guest hanging in silver chains Piñata style. Bonus swings if your nail finds bones???

Ironically, as much as Tim would like to hold others accountable, mom shares the same responsibility and guilt for not reporting or taking action; whereas she didn’t want the negative attention of reporting the others wanted the positive attention from not reporting, the end result is they all share the guilt of allowing a serial rapist is continue victimizing others. While healing is needed, perhaps the best community healing is knowing how these things happen and the best way to prevent even more innocents from being victimized; reporting may bring some embarrassment, humiliation, or even taint personal reputations. Maybe the community needs to learn the bravery to face these crimes is a personal sacrifice to protect others from the same fate. The principal, the DA secretary and others gave aid to Bruce to evade charges and court proceedings; then and more presently. The principal appears to have used unethical influence to bully protections for Bruce, knowingly aiding the coverup of those and other ongoing crimes; making him an accessory. Court proceedings to convict him is separate from charges against Bruce, but it also makes an indirect conviction of a dead man possible by proving the other parties knew and aided in crimes. The nature of these coverups are every bit the insult to the victims as ignoring the claims by any new victims….so how does the community learn best when the status quo is crimes are personal problems of the victims? I definitely believe crimes should be respectfully pursued, but false claims should likewise be handled with the same conviction. False claims out of personal regrets or to protect one’s image when unexpectedly discovered in an embarrassing situation are unforgivable; as the “presumed victim” victimizes an innocent party by abusing the laws for personal benefit while destroying the reputation of the innocent party. So severe punishments for high crimes should likewise incur severe punishment for any that cry wolf.

Wow, do you know how to break out the tears of the heart or what! What a wonderful valentines surprise and so, so fitting. Whether planned or maybe influenced by the coming of this day, this chapter is amazing. The history tying the long struggle for Tani to larger issues of power struggles and deception spilling from the immortal realms is so….powerful? 😝 Then the triumph of Dante’s binding to win over the harsh punishments against the heart is so heartwarming that as anyone reads this it has to have a magical sense of rightness; belonging where only evil has kept it apart. Happy Valentines Day!

Yup, young love. Are we alone?

Too much for Karl to understand and perhaps too much to bear as the war lingers without Karl having knowledge of home, or family. The real comfort and support of family comes from elsewhere, yet that comfort got complicated by….George. Karl has definitely taken a firm stand against bullying; those trying to dictate expression and personal rights. The naive farm boy is becoming a man of conviction. The unorthodoxed public approach to the commandant took an quick and unexpected turn when the confession held brutal honesty of the farm boy standing in defense of his mom’s honor, against a known bully. How did that decision come about so quickly? Who and why support the new guy upsetting what had been accepted? Was this more protection from Arther? Edgar? 🤔 Either way it would seem Karl is becoming more well known…and hopefully liked! lol lol 😝

Traditionally in Western Europe, young kids, boys or girls of any mix can all hold hands as it’s expected in friendships; this also extends to adults but more so for young singles in friendships. So when it comes to young love, Western European countries also have a more open acceptance of public displays of affection, more provocative billboards and wider acceptance of off color joking within TV/Radio; it’s all more jovial with less sensitivity from all parties. But with the growing worldwide social tensions, advocacy groups of all types, and with increasing immigration/migration of muslins and the growing muslin populations in the western countries is bringing more prejudice in public areas within those higher muslim density areas. Being smart in any country and knowing the areas to avoid unwanted attention is still very important.

I agree that a blackmailed individual is much different than the head honchos of the vicious organization. Caleb’s compromise was relatively brief and I don’t believe he directly contributed to any abductions or deaths during that period. Furthermore, he did resume offensive and protective engagements against the organization when freed of the mental weights unjustly applied by a very powerful group in very powerful positions…without full understanding of any possibilities to challenge them. As an unwilling participant with sincere regrets for decisions and remorse for the betrayal, I think Caleb could be shown some mercy, even as he readily accepts responsibility. Perhaps as the betrayal was under duress, and the largest impact of that betrayal was to his pack, then maybe with Sebastian as the magistrate he could assure a fair hearing for Caleb’s old pack to sit in final judgement and to decide his fate by granting mercy or no mercy.

Frustrated Finn, not angry at Alec but so aggravated that it’s best to reevaluate this whole situation and regroup; how did he mess up, does he take a chance to be more direct with Alec? Why didn’t Alec text him…why, why didn’t he text Alec…argh! He has always been social and supportive of friends, but yet are they friends when they disrespect his home and his hospitality by insulting his other friends? How does he fix this? Can he fix this? …what IS THIS? it’s so frustrating! Alec doesn’t know what to think, well that’s not right either. What is this he is feeling and why? Can he like a boy that is beyond likable, beyond anything he could hope for, and definitely not someone who should be spending time on him…unless River is right, does Finn like him like that? Why? When he has so many friends; why would he like me when we don’t really know one another? @Demiurgeagain you’ve captured the angst of teens; not just the social disfunction of Alec, but also the sudden lack of confidence and direction of the friendly, outward Finn; why is it so, so different when we attach hope and desire? Neither of these young men are thinking so clearly, yet when River has the best insights, he lacks the confidence in his owned social interactions. Yup, that’s the pottage known as teenage angst, desperately wanting something, but refusing it for fear anything that makes it less than assured.

Poor Jake, pressures to date, pressures to provide care, all while juggling his own coming to terms of sexuality and how to live his life without feeling he’s in a fish bowl. Argh 😖, life is rotten apples at limes.

Well I guess slang will start the rumors of the Royal Doghouse but we know the Royal Wolf Den would be the talk of all night life! What do you plan for the Halloween ball? At least the boys are talking again but it seems the close working, supporting, brotherly bond is still shaken by the recent events; hopefully, normalcy returns as much as possible and soon! I’m not so sure Darrren can’t deal with the Royal interest as much as the wolf knows more than ever just how sick Amber is; how can you address not being intrusive but yet you can’t ignore these things when you’re becoming a part of it yourself.

What was that sound?

It’s only labels anyway; water, whiskey…. 👿

Just one small drink per day

I don’t think locking them in transition is totally for vengeance. It’s punishment for their high crimes, a reminder to them, and any others that may want to extend forgiveness, that what they did is UNFORGIVABLE. They were entrusted to protect the community and the veil. They risked exposure and annihilation of all shifters for greed; and they did this by torturing the young treasures of families and communities. They should be made an example of as their public (behind the veil) punishment serves as a reminder and deterrent for such unforgivable high crimes. If to be executed, any holding time after such judgements, should be with them forced in that mid-transition form, forced to walk the shaming “Dead Man Walk” to their shifter public execution. The community needs closure and to know the system will protect them with aggressively; or….with vengeance! Oh, the irony. 😝

Wow, to be so torn. Reilly has so much anger to unleash vengeance without restraint. Yet, to deal with this being your own family, the dad and brothers that should love and protect you, has to be emotionally draining. To have evil grip and rip the very soul of everything that once was a loving family, with a loving mom, spells the undeniable end or death of what should have grown from childhood. So sad for Reilly as he mourns all that he has lost then and especially now as the end is so final.

It would seem to have strong logic or at least probably that mom is sitting in that position of support because: it is either expected of family, or that mom just doesn’t want the possibility of being on the wrong side of this significant event. Mom being there to truly support Essell out of motherly, or protective love, just doesn’t seem possible… 🤔; did you say the highly respected Captain, that didn’t conduct a search, nor report your disappearance, or the missing equipment, is not honorable?

That bouncer is safer and more lively than Essell’s mom?

The highly skilled and technical aspects of today’s training is much different than yesteryears. The quick grasping of ideas and concepts not common to the everyday people in general is a strong point; Karl is smart, a thinker too, and very observant, these are great talents for someone that is going to fly these airplanes while the college kids are still in school. Pilots need natural smarts but good coordination and reaction to keen observations. The initial pilots were more attuned to this action, reaction,…cause and affect type observations. aerodynamics and balancing centers of gravity are concepts I believe a naturally intelligent kid like Karl would do well with. Much different than clever Dierk; the airplane will not response to emotions or provocations, so ‘clever Dierk’ may get his spanking at the controls of a nimble, airborne and unanchored teeter-totter, that’s not impressed with his brawn and can bitch slap him so quickly with the full force of terra-firma. Should he be so humbled, especially if failing first amongst the group, his boisterous bluster will have very little credibility. Lol. @LittleCherryBlossom26Just edit the Lt Gen to be the Flight LT or Section CAPT, both are within the same Squadron that would normally handle administrative issues; should you want the higher ups to get wind of the incident there’s always the barracks chatter and chow hall tales to get the news out. 🤣

Well, they do need to understand the birds and the bees to have a fruitful garden!

Today class, we will be addressing a favorite luncheon selection; more jovially referred to as sausage in a bun, ramrod sandwich, pipe in a trench, etc., please do pay attention, as not all of you will want the run the board in a single day. Some suggestions: try not to get Mayo all over everything as you try the different menu items, always skin back the man made skin to enjoy the more tender sausage, and don’t forget to clean up before you put everything away. Enjoy your time to explore the full menu selection, I hope when you’re done you will call lunch your favorite meal!

Mom, meet my advanced species alien partner, he was asking why the council allows such trashing of the planets? Could you pass the tea please…

Hmmm 🤔, Calamity has sympathy? Yet he can’t release Tani or help as then he can no longer feed on the misery; Is Calamity caught in paradoxically challenging situation? Over the millennia, has Calamity somewhat ‘befriended’ Tani? Or maybe the Ekho Council has indirectly created this paradox for Calamity by nature of the extremely long and harsh punishment by split votes of support??? lol
