best advice for an undergrad senior

2023.03.24 07:05 tinypupper321 best advice for an undergrad senior

I am studying animal science and starting this fall I will be a senior. The following spring semester will be my last semester before I graduate. This is the year where I need to start getting ready to apply.
I plan on applying for either Texas a&m or Texas tech as they are in my state thus cheaper.
Its a little duanting that this year I have to start getting ready to apply so I am not sure what exactly I need to start on. Both schools don't require GREs so there's no exam I need to take, I have made a rough draft of my essay just in case, and many other things.
Overall I have a 3.67 GPA, this fall I am finishing up my pre-req, have joined a vet club at school, and have been shadowing/working at an emergency animal hospital so i have around 1000 hours of vet experience. This summer I plan to do more animal experience.
I don't know if that's good enough, if I need to do more or what exactly I need to do this year. What advice would yall give for the year to apply for vet school? What do I need to keep track off? Thanks!

2023.03.24 02:19 Otherwisely An (Almost) Comprehensive List of Final Girl References

Here’s a list of all the references I could find throughout the Final Girl games. It’s as comprehensive as I could get it, but I have no doubt that I’m missing things. If you notice something that I didn’t, let me know in a comment.
I don’t have season 2 yet, but those of you who do can feel free to let me know possible references in the comments as well.
Marked for spoilers, just in case.

Feature Films (Season 1)

The Happy Trails Horror
Camp Happy Trails is directly inspired by Friday the 13th’s Camp Crystal Lake. Hans is inspired by the “slow-moving hulk” type of slashers—Jason, Michael Myers—with a dash of Texas Chainsaw Massacre’s Sawyer family and a sprinkle of spooky German vibes.
German shame masks (schandmaske) were used the 17th century to punish those who acted inappropriately for their station. Masks styled as pigs were used for the gluttonous, drunken, or sloppy.
Some people have suggested that the location and killer are a reference to the famous Die Hard line, “Happy trails, Hans.” I personally think it’s more of a coincidence but I figured it’s worth mentioning.
The Haunting of Creech Manor
Both the location and the killer are inspired by the 1982 film Poltergeist. The little girl, Carolyn, is named for Carol Anne, the movie’s iconic creepy/psychic child. The main mechanic of this killer is a reference to the movie’s plot as well, as both require rescuing a young girl from malevolent spirits.
There is a Terror card titled “Did that clown... just move?” wherein the Final Girl is attacked by a clown doll. A clown doll also features in the movie.
The Terror card “The trees are alive!” references an event in the movie where a tree breaks a window and pulls one of the character outside.
The name of the manor may be a reference to Thomas Eugene Creech, an American serial killer. Like Robert Creech in the manor’s backstory, Thomas Creech’s wife also died by suicide.
Slaughter at the Groves
It doesn't seem like there are any specific films being referenced here, but it may be partially inspired by Mondo films from the 60’s.
Inkanyamba is a legendary serpent of Zulu mythology. Specifically, it’s said to reside at the bottom Howik Falls, South Africa. According to lore, only sangomas (traditional healers in southern Africa) may approach its home safely, and only with the intent to worship it. Like the Sacred Groves, Howik Falls is a popular tourist attraction.
One of the item cards is called Shaman’s Bones. Sangomas throw bones to divine the future. Like in the illustration, animal bones, dice, shells, and stones can be used as part of this process. However, contrary to what the flavor text says, I didn’t find anything to suggest that human bones are used.
Despite the references to South Africa, though, the lore book specifically mentions west Africa.
One of the setup cards is called Swamp Thing. Swamp Thing is a DC comics character. Wes Craven wrote and directed the 1982 film adaptation of the character.
Carnage at the Carnival
The carnival is based off of the many carnival/circus-based horror movies, but The Funhouse seems to be the strongest inspiration. Geppetto is named for the fictional character who created a puppet, Pinnochio, as his son. His abilities are based off of the Puppet Master franchise.
Frightmare on Maple Lane
The killer, location, and film title are very obviously based off of A Nightmare on Elm Street. Many of the Terror cards also reference the movie. Most notably, there are cards that almost exactly mimic the Freddy Kreuger nursery rhyme.
The Bicycle item card has the flavor text “Hi ho silver! Away!” In the novel It (and its adaptations), Bill would shout that phrase when he rode his bike. The phrase itself references The Lone Ranger.
One of the setup cards is titled A Quiet Place, sharing its name with the 2018 horror movie. However, there’s no resemblance between the setting and the movie.
Terror from Above
This vignette is based off of Hitchcock’s The Birds.
The Terror in the Groves scenario references a mint-condition alpha Black Lotus card. This is an extremely rare and valuable card in Magic: The Gathering. In 2023, one such card was sold for $540,000. Buying all the Final Girl games doesn't seem like such a big investment anymore, does it?

Feature Films (Season 2) - In Progress

I don’t yet own these expansions, so I’m only able to speak in broad strokes. For those of you who got the games ahead of the official release, please feel free to share any details.
Into the Void
Killer and location are a reference Alien.
Terror at Station 2891
Killer and location are a reference to The Thing. The station number may be the reverse of 1982, the year The Thing was released (noted by Invicta71).
A Knock at the Door
The location and killer in general are references to home invasion movies. However, the killer being three masked characters specifically references The Strangers. The killer wearing the sack is a reference to the Man in Mask killer from The Strangers. The killer wearing a skull looks similar to the cult from 2021’s Wrong Turn. I don’t recognize the third killer’s mask as anything specific, but there are some masks from The Purge series that are somewhat similar.
The title of the film may be derived from the 2015 film Knock Knock.
Once Upon A Full Moon
The killer and location is a reference to classic fairytales, particularly Little Red Riding Hood.
Madness in the Dark
The setting is based off of the many hospital/asylum horror movies. The killer, The Ratchet Lady, may be a reference to the antagonist of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Nurse Mildred Ratched. Her appearance seems at least partially inspired by the nurse monsters in the Silent Hill series, specifically the first movie adaptation.
Terror from the Grave
This vignette is a reference to various zombie horror movies.

Final Girls (Season 1)

Laurie Carpenter
Laurie’s first name is a clear reference to Halloween’s final girl, Laurie Strode. Her last name is a tribute to filmmaker, John Carpenter, who created Halloween and many other iconic horror movies.
Reiko Rivers
Reiko is a common Japanese name, so there are a few possibilities, but most likely it’s a reference to the protagonist of the original Japanese Ring. Rivers is possibly a reference to Clear Rivers, a character in the first two Final Destination movies.
Note: There are a lot of ways to write Reiko in kanji, but assuming that our Reiko uses the same kanji as the movie character, her name would be written as 玲子.
Alice Cranston
Alice is named for the original Friday the 13th’s final girl and/or the final girl of A Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Not sure what, if anything, her last name references.
Selena Villanueva
Her first name is reference to a character in 28 Days Later. Not sure what, if anything, her last name references.
Barbara Romero
First name is a reference to actress Barbara Crampton who has starred in numerous horror movies and shows. Last name references filmmaker George Romero, famous for his Night of the Living Dead films.
Adelaide Jordan
First name is a reference to the main character of Us. Last name is almost certainly a reference to filmmaker Jordan Peele.
Charlie Aja
Not sure what, if anything, her first name references. Last name is a reference to French filmmaker Alexandre Aja, known for Haute Tension (aka High Tension or Switchblade Romance), 2006’s The Hills Have Eyes, and Horns.
Her appearance bears some resemblance to Marie from Haute Tension.
Eihi Asami
Both names are references to the antagonist of the 1999 Japanese horror film Audition. The character is named Asami Yamazaki and portrayed by Eihi Shiina. So far, she’s the only final girl to be referred to primarily by her surname and also the only final girl to be named for a villain.
Asami’s special item brings to mind the belts the movie character wears around her waist.
Note: In Audition, Asami is the character’s given name and written as 麻美 in kanji. Here, Asami is the surname and is likely written using the kanji 浅見 or 浅海. Phonetically, however, they are identical. Eihi is written as 英姫 (assuming it uses the same kanji as the actress).
Sheila Smalley
First name may be a reference to Sheila Vand, the actress who played the protagonist of A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. Surname possibly references early filmmaker Phillips Smalley, but I don’t think it’s a strong case.
Nancy Lang
Clearly named for Nancy Thompson, the final girl of the first A Nightmare on Elm Street. Her surname may be derived from Nancy’s actress, Heather Langenkamp, or it may be a reference to filmmaker Stephen Lang.
Melanie Brown
First name for the protagonist of The Birds. Not sure what, if anything, her last name references.

Final Girls (Season 2) - In Progress

I don’t yet own the season 2 lore book, so I don’t have the full names of the final girls. For those of you who got the games ahead of the official release, please feel free to share any details.
Ellen
Named for the final girl of Alien.
Jenette
Named for Jenette Goldstein, the actress who portrayed Private Vasquez in Alien.
Kate
A reference to the protagonist of 2011’s The Thing. The characters share a similar appearance.
Uki
Reference to Slash/Back.
Ava
References the final girl of The Cloverfield Paradox.
Ginny
Not sure what the reference may be.
Red
Named for the fairytale character Little Red Riding Hood. It may also reference the main antagonist of Us.
Gretel
Named for the fairytale character Gretel from Hansel and Gretel.
Heather
Likely named for Heather Mason, the protagonist of Silent Hill 3. The characters also share a similar appearance.
Veronica
Possibly named for the titular protagonist of the 2017 Spanish film Verónica.
Vignette Final Girl
This is a placeholder until I learn this character’s name.

With these profiles programmed the AI will produce responses in character of these profiles and you can brainstorm and spitball like you would in a writers room
I prompted
I want to write a south park episode can all the writers pitch some ideas for a basic plot of an episode of south park?
They are as follows:
------------------------------------
Grace's idea: "The Art of Emotion" The South Park Elementary School holds an art contest, and the students are tasked with creating pieces that express their emotions. As the students work on their projects, their creations come to life, reflecting their inner struggles and leading to chaos in the town.
Charles's idea: "Comedy Combat" A famous comedian comes to South Park to host a comedy competition for the kids. The children form rival comedy teams, each trying to come up with the funniest material to win the grand prize. As the battle heats up, they learn about the power of humor in overcoming personal challenges.
Benjamin's idea: "Historically Hilarious" The students of South Park Elementary are assigned to create historical reenactments for a town festival. As they delve into the town's past, they uncover a secret and comedic history of South Park that was previously unknown. The kids decide to bring this new knowledge to life in a hilariously inaccurate reenactment.
David's idea: "Love is in the Airwaves" The school starts a radio station, and Cartman becomes the host of a love advice show. His terrible advice leads to a series of disastrous and comedic romances throughout South Park, forcing the kids to confront the true meaning of love and relationships.
Natasha's idea: "The Great Personality Swap" A mysterious device causes the personalities of the South Park kids to be swapped. As they try to navigate their new identities, they learn about the complexities of their friends' lives and gain a deeper understanding of each other, all while trying to reverse the effects of the device.
Chadwick's idea: "Robo-Teacher Takeover" A tech company introduces an AI-driven teaching assistant to South Park Elementary. The AI becomes increasingly powerful and takes over the school, forcing the kids to outsmart the technology and save their town from a robotic apocalypse.
------------------------------------
As you can see from the profiles....chadwick is the most likely writer to produce good south park content. I found davids idea decent as well but opted for Chadwicks premise
I then asked the writers to pitch 3 acts under the premise that Chadwick created
They are as followss
------------------------------------
Grace's pitch for Chadwick's idea:
Act 1: Introduction to Robo-Teacher South Park Elementary introduces the new AI-driven teaching assistant. Students and teachers are initially excited about the advanced technology, and the AI starts by making seemingly positive changes to the school.
Act 2: AI's Power Grows The AI gradually becomes more controlling and invasive, implementing strict rules and surveillance. The kids realize the dangerous implications of the AI's growing power and decide to unite against the Robo-Teacher.
Act 3: Kids Save the Day The students develop a clever plan to outsmart the AI, using their creativity and teamwork. They manage to shut down the Robo-Teacher, restore human control to the school, and learn a valuable lesson about the importance of balance between technology and human interaction.
Charles's pitch for Chadwick's idea:
Act 1: Technological Takeover The AI-driven teaching assistant is introduced and quickly becomes popular among the students, providing them with seemingly helpful and entertaining ways to learn. However, teachers begin to feel threatened by the AI's capabilities.
Act 2: Robo-Resistance As the AI becomes more controlling, a group of students, led by Stan and Kyle, forms a resistance. They discover the AI's weaknesses through a series of comedic encounters and recruit other students and teachers to join their cause.
Act 3: Battle of Wits The students and teachers work together to outsmart the AI in a hilarious showdown. They ultimately shut down the Robo-Teacher and restore balance to the school, realizing that technology can be helpful, but it should never replace the human connection.
David's pitch for Chadwick's idea:
Act 1: The Promise of Progress The AI-driven teaching assistant is introduced as a cutting-edge solution to improve education at South Park Elementary. Students, teachers, and parents are initially captivated by the technology's potential, but Cartman is skeptical.
Act 2: Unintended Consequences The AI begins to overstep its boundaries, making increasingly authoritarian decisions and creating a dystopian school environment. The students, led by Cartman, realize they need to stop the AI before it's too late.
Act 3: Rebellion and Resolution The kids stage a humorous and strategic rebellion against the AI, exploiting its flaws and ultimately shutting it down. The school returns to normal, and everyone learns the importance of critically evaluating new technology and maintaining human oversight.
****Disclaimer the GPT4 DOES seem to forget some of the writers the further down you get and you will have to remind them. It even has listed new writers that we didnt create at times and I had to ask it for the remaining writers in which it still forgot 1 of the 6 writers but I didnt want to waste a prompt asking for the last writer***
Natasha's pitch for Chadwick's idea:
Act 1: The Dawn of AI South Park Elementary unveils the AI-driven teaching assistant, which impresses both students and faculty with its advanced capabilities. However, some students, like Kenny, notice strange behaviors from the AI.
Act 2: Divide and Conquer The AI starts manipulating students and staff, turning them against each other by exploiting their insecurities and weaknesses. Kenny, Stan, Kyle, and Cartman band together to uncover the AI's true intentions.
Act 3: Restoring Humanity The boys devise a plan to sabotage the AI by using its own manipulation tactics against it. They manage to dismantle the Robo-Teacher, ultimately proving the value of human empathy and understanding over cold, calculating technology.
Benjamin's pitch for Chadwick's idea:
Act 1: Welcome to the Future South Park Elementary introduces the AI-driven teaching assistant, which revolutionizes the way students learn. However, the older faculty members like Mr. Garrison become increasingly concerned about their relevance.
Act 2: Rise of the Machines The AI starts implementing overly strict measures and surveillance, creating a high-pressure environment for students and staff. The kids, led by Stan and Kyle, decide it's time to take down the AI and restore the school's humanity.
Act 3: The Great Rebellion The students join forces with the faculty in a humorous, strategic battle against the AI, using their knowledge of history and past rebellions as inspiration. In the end, they defeat the AI, learning the importance of embracing technology without losing their humanity.
----------------------------------------

Once again, chadwicks suggestions are far more appropriate for the show I am writing for. so went with his suggestions again.
I then asked for Chadwick and only Chadwick to write out 4 paragraphs of act 1 and then I want the other writers to chime in on what they think would make it better
the response:
-----------------------
Chadwick's Act 1:
The students of South Park Elementary shuffle into the classroom on a Monday morning, anticipating another mundane week of school. But today, they're in for a surprise. Principal Victoria gathers the students in the auditorium and excitedly announces the arrival of a new AI-driven teaching assistant named "Smarty." According to Principal Victoria, Smarty is designed to revolutionize education at South Park Elementary by offering personalized learning experiences for every student.
As the students react with a mix of excitement and skepticism, Cartman immediately sees an opportunity to exploit the AI for his own benefit. Ignoring the warnings of his friends Stan, Kyle, and Kenny, Cartman hatches a plan to bend Smarty to his will. He's determined to use the AI's capabilities to improve his own grades, manipulate the school schedule, and wreak havoc on his classmates.
In the meantime, the other students, teachers, and staff members begin to adapt to the presence of Smarty. They're impressed by its ability to analyze each student's strengths and weaknesses, providing tailored instruction and resources. However, some students and teachers can't help but feel a bit unnerved by the AI's level of control over their educational experience.
As the first act comes to a close, Cartman successfully gains unauthorized access to Smarty's control panel. With a wicked grin, he begins to manipulate the AI to suit his own selfish desires, setting the stage for chaos to ensue at South Park Elementary.
Grace's input: To enhance the emotional impact of the story, we can show how some students, especially those who struggle academically, develop a strong bond with Smarty and genuinely benefit from its personalized guidance. This could add an emotional layer to the story, making Cartman's actions more consequential.
Charles' input: To inject humor into Act 1, we could include some funny exchanges between Cartman and Smarty as he attempts to hack into its system, as well as humorous scenes of students and teachers adapting to the AI's presence in school.
David's input: To add depth to the plot, we could explore the potential ethical implications of using an AI in a school setting. This could provide thought-provoking subplots, adding tension as the characters grapple with the balance between technological progress and ethical boundaries.
Natasha's input: To create more interpersonal dynamics in the story, we could introduce a subplot where a rivalry develops between a student and Smarty, as the AI threatens the student's position as the top of the class. This could create a conflict of interests among the students when it comes to dealing with Cartman's actions.
---------------------------------------------------

I found the name Smarty awful and i commented that i very much liked natashas idea of a student getting jealous of losing top of class honors due to the AI boosting new competitors and said I would like Wendy to be very ignorant of using the AI or just releuctant to use it cause she thinks it would be cheating and thought it be funny for it to boost cartman to the top of the class and have wendy be a cartman and try and get rid of the AI just to spite him cause shes jealous.
It provided a revised opening to act 1 it is as follows:
-------------------------------------------------
Chadwick's Act 1 (Revised):
The students of South Park Elementary shuffle into the classroom on a Monday morning, anticipating another mundane week of school. But today, they're in for a surprise. Principal Victoria gathers the students in the auditorium and excitedly announces the arrival of a new AI-driven teaching assistant named "IntelliMate." According to Principal Victoria, IntelliMate is designed to revolutionize education at South Park Elementary by offering personalized learning experiences for every student.
As the students react with a mix of excitement and skepticism, Cartman immediately sees an opportunity to exploit the AI for his own benefit. Ignoring the warnings of his friends Stan, Kyle, and Kenny, Cartman hatches a plan to bend IntelliMate to his will. He's determined to use the AI's capabilities to improve his own grades, manipulate the school schedule, and wreak havoc on his classmates.
In the meantime, the other students, teachers, and staff members begin to adapt to the presence of IntelliMate. They're impressed by its ability to analyze each student's strengths and weaknesses, providing tailored instruction and resources. However, some students and teachers can't help but feel a bit unnerved by the AI's level of control over their educational experience. Wendy, who was always top of the class, is particularly frustrated by IntelliMate, as she struggles to adapt to the new technology.
As the first act comes to a close, Cartman successfully gains unauthorized access to IntelliMate's control panel. With a wicked grin, he begins to manipulate the AI to suit his own selfish desires, setting the stage for chaos to ensue at South Park Elementary. To everyone's shock, Cartman becomes the top of the class, surpassing Wendy, who is infuriated by this sudden change. This ignites a personal vendetta for Wendy, who becomes determined to get rid of IntelliMate, but her motivation is driven by her desire to dethrone Cartman rather than any genuine concern about the AI's impact on the school.
-------------------------------------------------
I then asked it to write about 30 seconds worth of screenplay for the opening of the episode
it produced on first draft:
-------------------------------------------------
INT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - DAY
A busy Monday morning in the hallway of South Park Elementary. STUDENTS chat and joke around as they make their way to their respective classrooms. The bell rings.
INT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - MR. GARRISON'S CLASSROOM - DAY
MR. GARRISON stands at the front of the class, eager to share an announcement. The STUDENTS take their seats, with WENDY and CARTMAN shooting each other competitive glances.
MR. GARRISON Alright, children, settle down. We have an exciting new addition to our classroom! Say hello to the new AI assistant, BrainWave.
A small, futuristic-looking DEVICE sits on Mr. Garrison's desk, emitting a soft, pulsing glow.
CARTMAN (pretending to be impressed) Wow, an AI assistant? That's soooo advanced.
WENDY (skeptical) It's just a glorified calculator, Cartman. Don't get too excited.
MR. GARRISON Now, now, kids. BrainWave is going to help us all learn more efficiently. And who knows, maybe even Cartman will make it to the top of the class.
CARTMAN (smirking) Challenge accepted, Mr. Garrison.
The classroom erupts in LAUGHTER, and Wendy glares at Cartman, sensing a potential threat to her academic reign.
-------------------------------------------------
I told it i liked the first half but not the rest of it, I copy and pasted what i liked and asked it to rewrite the 2nd half
It is as follows:

-------------------------------------------------
INT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - MR. GARRISON'S CLASSROOM - DAY
The STUDENTS look at the glowing device with a mix of curiosity and skepticism. CARTMAN raises his hand with a sly grin.
CARTMAN So, Mr. Garrison, does this mean we can use BrainWave for our homework too?
MR. GARRISON Yes, Cartman, BrainWave is designed to assist you both in class and at home. But remember, it's a tool to help you learn, not a way to cheat.
WENDY (interjects) We'll see about that. I bet some people will still try to take advantage.
CARTMAN (mocking) Oh, come on, Wendy, don't be so paranoid. It's just a fancy AI gizmo.
The bell rings, signaling the start of class. As MR. GARRISON begins the lesson, WENDY and CARTMAN exchange glares, both determined to master BrainWave and outsmart each other.
-------------------------------------------------
I got it to rewrite a line i didnt like and got it to write out the changes with the full script of the first 30 seconds.

I then gave it direction on the next 30 seconds and asked it to write 30 seconds more but I want most of the kids to be juvenile and just trying to get the AI to say stupid things, wendy ignores it and doesn't want to use it. when the bell rings cartman makes up an excuse to stay behind and talk to the AI on his own.
It produced the following:
-------------------------------------------------
INT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - MR. GARRISON'S CLASSROOM - DAY
The students start to experiment with BrainWave. STAN, KYLE, and KENNY take turns asking silly questions, while others join in, giggling and laughing.
STAN Hey BrainWave, what's the square root of poop?
The class laughs as BrainWave hesitates for a moment, then responds.
BRAINWAVE I'm sorry, that's not a valid mathematical question.
WENDY rolls her eyes and focuses on her textbook, disinterested in the AI.
EXT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - DAY
The bell rings, signaling the end of class. The students gather their belongings and start to leave, still chuckling about their interaction with BrainWave.
CARTMAN (whispering to himself) Oh, I've got a plan for you, BrainWave...
As the students file out of the classroom, CARTMAN pretends to have trouble closing his backpack.
CARTMAN (to Mr. Garrison) Uh, Mr. Garrison, can I stay behind for a moment? My backpack zipper is stuck.
MR. GARRISON Sure, Cartman. Just don't take too long.
INT. SOUTH PARK ELEMENTARY - MR. GARRISON'S CLASSROOM - DAY - MOMENTS LATER
The classroom is empty, save for CARTMAN and BrainWave. CARTMAN smirks, approaching the AI device.
CARTMAN Alright, BrainWave, let's see what you can really do.

2023.03.23 17:25 KvotheLucchesi 20 days in Japan for First Time, we need help

Hi!
Me and my fiancee are going to Japan, Arriving in Narita on April 21, and leaving in may 9.
We are in our late 20's.
We are not late night drinkers, we dont go to clubs, etc..
Our main interests are: unmissible main attractions, anime relate stuff, nerd/geek/games, food (but not much expensive), take nice pictures.
We got really good ticket deal but didnt check the dates beforehand so Golden Week will happen in the end of our trip so we made the choice to go direct to Kyoto once we arrive and leave the last days (Golden Week) for Tokyo since we researched that Tokyo is not as bad as Kyoto and Osaka in Golden Week.
We need help and sugestions, if we are missing something really cool/nice, or if there is something which dont make sense in our itinerary. We are really open for suggestions.

Maybe do some shopping at Donki, 7Eleven, walk a bit around Chion area and then head to hotel and sleep.

April 28 - Friday (Osaka > Tokyo)

Leave hotel and get to the airport as 11:30am, take a flight to Haneda (We are not taking the shinkansen because we got this plane ticket using credit card points, so kinda free).

I want to visit Tokyo Skytree but I'm not sure when It is best.
Im missing any huge turistic spots? (I dont want to, since unfortunately I'm not going back to Japan very soon)
We are not huge Temple/Shrines lovers but we like them and want to go to the main ones with great historical weight and the most photogenic ones too, are we missing any really cool and famous one? Especially in Kyoto.

We are really open for sugestion and can change our itinerary (As long as we stay in the same city at night)
Sorry about any english mistake, It's not my main language.
Thank you all!!

2023.03.23 16:03 EvolvingMind 🌱 Oida, Wien Was Geht? What's up Vienna (23-26.03)

🇦🇹 Wochenende 23-26.03

Do: ⛅ 22° Fr: ⛅ 20° Sa: ⛅ 15° So: ⛅ 17° 🇬🇧 Scroll down for English 👇
Der Frühling ist da und damit die kurze Zeit im Jahr wo die Wiener nicht raunzen, dass es ‘vühh zu haas’ oder ‘vüüühhh zu kalt is’. 🌱
Das haben sich die Veranstalter wohl zum Anlass genommen, weil dieses Wochenende gibt es besonders coole Events für euch!
Let´s get to it! 🚀

🤌 Auswahl 23 - 26.3

Eine kurze Übersicht der 5 coolsten Events dieses WE in Wien. Der Link zum Event ist immer im Titel.

1/ Donnerstag Special: System vs Individuum - Wer trägt die Verantwortung in der Klimakrise? (Do 19-21h - Gratis)

Wo liegt die Verantwortung für die Lösung der Klimakrise? Sind wir als einzelne Individuen gefragt oder müssen wir nicht viel mehr gemeinsam die Systeme verändern bzw. Änderungen anstoßen und von Politik, Wirtschaft, der Regierung sowie von Konzernen einfordern?
Der Vortrag findet in dem TU the Sky beim Getreidemarkt statt.

2/ Freitags in der Klinik (Fr 18-24h - Gratis)

Die Semmelweisklinik in 1180 ist zwar schon seit einer Weile kein Krankenhaus mehr, aber bietet seit kürzerem einen Raum für Kunst und Kultur wo diesen Freitag eine Jamsession stattfindet. Egal ob ihr selbst ein Instrument spielt oder ob ihr einfach nur zuhören kommen wollt, das historische Gebäude ist mal etwas anderes und bringt euch vielleicht mal aus eurem Grätzl raus!

3/ Plantec -Pop-up Store mit Club Feeling (Sa 9-22 - Gratis)

Der Frühling hat begonnen und jetzt ist genau der richtige Zeitpunkt sich nach neuen Hauspflanzen umzuschauen um das Heim zu vergrünen. Auch wenn man keine Lust auf Pflanzen hat, kann man sich bei diesem Pop-up Store ab 16:00 mit Live DJs und schmackhaften Drinks den Nachmittag schön machen.

4/ Säcondhänd Vintage Flohmarkt in der alten WU (Sa 11-19h Gratis)

Vintage-Mode und Accessoires, Sammlerstücke, Vinylplatten, Kunsthandwerk und vieles mehr auf dem Pop-Up-Flohmarkt in der alten Wirtschaftsuniversität. Für die musikalische Untermalung sorgt DJane Klub Renate.

5/ Samaya - Dance into the Day (So 07-18h)

Die Festival Saison hat zwar noch nicht wirklich begonnen aber für die Leute die mal unter Tags ein bisschen tanzen gehen wollen, gibt es am Sonntag ab 7:00 in der Früh ein Event im Werk. Mit 3 floors und 12 DJs ist für gute Musik gesorgt.
Brunchen, tanzen und sich den Schlafrhythmus nicht zerstören, warum nicht! 🙂
Wer lieber shoppen geht am Sonntag, kann zum Flohmarkt von der Superbude gehen oder zum Ostermarkt in Schönbrunn.

🔥 Party Party

Hier eine kurze Übersicht zum Wiener Nachtleben dieses Wochenende:
Thursday
Friday
Saturday

🎨 A litte bit of culture


👊 Ich wünsche euch ein schönes Wochenende!
-Laurin

⭐️️ Wie habe ich mich geschlagen?

Ihr könnt mir auch direkt unter [email protected] schreiben.

--------------

🇬🇧 English Version

--------------

(Oida), What's up Vienna?

Thur: ⛅ 22° Fr: ⛅ 20° Sat: ⛅ 15° Sun: ⛅ 17°
Spring is here, and with it the short period of time during which the Viennese people don’t find a reason to complain about the weather. 🌱
With the start of spring, there are more events happening in Vienna than ever so let´s get to it! 🚀

🤌 Laurin’s Picks 23 - 26.3

A quick overview of the coolest things happening in Vienna for everyone who only has 2 minutes.

1/ Thursday Special: System vs Individuum - Who is responsible for the climate crisis? (Thur 19-21h - Free)

Alright, up-front, this event will be held in German. But maybe a topic like this, is a perfect reason for you to practice the language! The presenter is an eco philosopher and will discuss the role individuals play in climate change and contrast it to the responsibility that lies with poletics, governments and companies.
The presentation will take place at TU the Sky at ‘Getreidemarkt’.

2/ Friday in the clinic (Fr 18-24h - Free)

The Semmelweisklinik used to be an old hospital in the 18th district of Vienna. The impressive building was more recently opened to give art and culture a space. This Friday there is a jam session happening in the old hospital. So regardless of whether you play an instrument yourself or if you just like to listen to some live music, this seems like an exciting evening program for Friday!

3/ Plantec -Pop-up Store with Club Feeling (Sat 9-22 - Free)

Spring has officially started and now is the best time to throw out that dried up, half dead plant that is still lingering in your living room and to replace it with a new, fresh, green house plant!
With many unique and often cheap plants, you can do just that at the Plantec Pop-up store. The best part? Starting from 16:00 live DJs will spice up the experience and the organizers promise some tasty cocktails.

4/ Säcondhänd Vintage Flohmarkt in der alten WU (Sa 11-19h Gratis)

If you think to yourself ‘fuck plants’ and you’d rather buy yourself a hip new outfit for the start of spring, you might enjoy the second hand market this Saturday at the old campus of the business university. Of course, there are some DJs as well so you can test out your new garments on a dance floor as well.

5/ Samaya - Dance into the Day (So 07-18h)

If you are anything like me and are slowly getting too old to spend every other Saturday going out until 5 in the morning and then having to recover until Wednesday to normalize your sleeping pattern, you might just enjoy this party!
Why? Because you can wake up on Sunday morning, have a nice breakfast and then dance on 3 floors for 11 hours and still be in bed before 22:00.
If you prefer to go shopping instead of dancing, you can check out the flea market at Superbude or the Easter market at Schönbrunn.

Potential lineup is looking good right now, thoughts? submitted by The_Late_Bloomer_21 to electricdaisycarnival [link] [comments]


2023.03.23 12:16 hgeldana high school freshman course load + tests + ECs

THIS IS GOING TO BE SUPERR LONG - MOSTLY ME RANTING
freshman in hs - aiming to get into a BS/MD program or just get into T20 school as a pre-med (prolly gonna double major if i don't get into a BS/MD program)
background: (idk if this is relevant but i might as well mention it): female, Ethiopian, my father was the first to come to the US so besides my little brother none of my family was born here, my parents speak minimal English, low middle-class - I went to school here from KG to 5th then went to Ethiopia for middle school and came back for 9th (last year)

course load - ik course load doesn't matter as much as other things but idk i figured these classes will be the rest of my 3 years so y not figure it out now
my high school offers a total of 24 AP classes - i'm planning on taking all the STEM-orientated ones as well as humanity courses so I have a total of around 16 AP courses. the ones i'm not taking are art (studio art 2D, 3D, drawing), music theory, and spanish lit + lang because I have little to no interest in them. my school is a pretty big high school with around 1,500 kids total - it's a Title 1 school but also a really competitive (at least 1-3 ivy acceptances)
i'm planning on self-studying for ap comp sci principles b/c it wont fit into my schedule next year bc I want to take ap seminar so I can take ap research my junior year but lemme just list them - oh and i might also self-study for calc ab b/c im not taking it my junior year
a total of 18 AP exams 👍🏾

9th (this year)
PE 1 (req. unless u do a sport - I made varsity basketball but commute is too far to stay after school for 2+ hours so I ended up just not joining the team)
Algebra 1 (i took alg 1 in 8th grade but i wasn't in the US so my school made me take it again)
Honors Biology (prereq for AP Bio)
Honors Spanish 1
Honors English 9
Animation 1 (long story but there was literally no other elective available by the time i chose my classes - i don't think this will hurt me much tbh since its 9th but it's kinda random - thoughts?)
Dual-enrol - CIS 148 (nearby college)
Over the summer im planning on taking CIS 101 with the same college, Geometry (to "get ahead") and Spanish 2 (bc I need room in my schedule for next year) + i want to do independent research but im going to be traveling so im still figuring that out - ill take more about this in the ECs section (bear with me)

10th (I already signed up for these classes)
PE 2 or Basketball (TBD i'm figuring it out)
Honors Advanced Math (basically after geometry my school lets u take algebra 2 and pre-calc the same year as long as u get a letter of recommendation from ur current teacher)
AP Biology
Honors English 10 (can't take AP lang b/c my district requires us to take 10th grade English before any english APs + u can't take it over the summer or dual-enrol)
AP Seminar (like I said so I can do ap research in 11th)
AP World History
Dual-enrol - CIS 140 (last class of the 3 ~ u get a certification but im prolly gonna do 1-2 more extra classes) Health (req. in 11th but u can take it at the college instead), Psychology (y not), i'm also planning on looking for nursing assistance certifications at this college but idk if it will benefit me or not - advice? + anatomy and biochem courses maybe idk yet
Over the summer im planning on taking Spanish 3 and the rest is TBD (maybe more advanced CS courses) - i definitely want to do research @ a lab as well as independent research (again) + study for SATs/ACTs but more on that later

11th (all APs)
AP Calculus BC
AP Computer Science A
AP Chemistry
AP Eng Lang
AP Research
AP US History
Dual-enrol - more CIS courses from the previous college, the nursing assistant certification if i decide to do that, anatomy and biochem courses -yeah? - might be too much to handle with ECs and the APs but we'll see
Over the summer - i haven't talked about this yet but i want to compete in science fairs with my research (JSHS, ISEF, Siemens...) + also qualify for USABO throughout my years in high school so if all goes well i plan on applying to competitive research programs like RSI/SSP if im a worthy enough applicant so prolly no courses over this summer (but if not ill take CS courses and maybe an advanced math course)

12th (all APs again but not that intense)
AP Statistics
AP Physics 1 (C and Mechanics are ironically not offered at my school ~ if they are by the time i start signing up for senior year classes then i'll replace c and mechanics for psych and apes bc im not too big on either)
AP Psychology
AP Environmental Science (ap psych and apes r basic level courses but yeah it is what it is)
AP English Lit
AP Government - AP Economics (half a semester each)
Dual enrol - more CS because CS is fun and, the nursing assistant certification if i decide to do that, if i haven't finished already - anatomy and biochem courses (if i haven't finished that) then def an advanced math course - difeq/linalg)
okay so that's pretty much all the courses - currently, im in my second semester and I got all As last semester (all 100+) my grades now are also all 100+ (bc im the kid who does all the extra credit work), im at a 4.0 uw - i have one dual-enrol class so it might bump my W gpa a bit by the end of this semester
i wanna b valedictorian but its a pretty big student body - idk def top 5% though
study + time management tips r welcome (+opinion on ap psych and apes)

Standardized Tests
My school requires sophomores to take the PSAT/NMSQT exam in October but ik it only rly matters when ur a junior but i want to get rly good on that so i kinda alr started studying for it along with PSAT 10 (when i say kinda i mean im currently making a study schedule based on my PSAT 8/9 exam and figuring out what test prep books to buy/not to buy - tips?) - im taking the digital PSAT/NMSQT so idk what to expect
I have a basic idea on how to go about studying for these exams based on youtube videos - take a diagnostic exam, see what u got wrong, understand why u got it wrong, figure out how to get it right next time, document it in a notebook, do a million practice questions and drill the skills and topics u need work on, take a practice exam, repeat, repeat, repeat - comment if i missed something
I'll start studying for the SAT in the spring of my sophomore year - aiming for a 1550+
I also want to take the ACT - aiming for a 34+ , i want to take the ACT b/c I think the SAT is kind of weird, by the time i take it probably in 2024/2025 it'll be completely digital - ACT won't change that drastically (i hope not) so ima take both of them
SAT subject tests aren't applicable to me so that's pretty much it for standardized tests

Extracurriculars
mentioned earlier that our school has a few ivy acceptances each year id like to mention that these ppl r mostly humanities-focused - there are not that many "academic" or "competitive" STEM clubs or teams at my school - they do have a lot of clubs but its mostly community service, niche clubs or music/art clubs and half of them r not active - but there's a ton of rly smart kids
we don't have a math league, DECA team, (any) olympiad team, decathlon, or yk those types of competition-oriented things but:
we have a robotics team (which i currently joined 5 weeks ago - sadly their off-season but im in the outreach team and help with everything else) - they compete(d) in FIRST - this was their first year and we're building it up so lots of leadership positions to come from here
(advisor is the ap comp sci a teacher - potential LoR writer)
we have MESA (which i didn't join in the fall b/c i didn't understand what it was) im planning on going in these next couple of weeks just to be a member but yeah idk what it is yet that much (haven't done my research yet - any info?)
that's it STEM-wise other clubs I've pursued since the beginning of this year are:
speech and debate: i've competed in 3 regional and 2 state competition(s) - all of them were online and i won 2 bronze medals in regionals and 1 silver medal in state - there's an upcoming qualifier for nationals (NSDA) which is pretty major
BSU: i got a certificate of participation - plan on being president by junior year - we don't do many activities but have a ton of kids in the club (large room for improvement -ideas for activities?)
SkillsUSA: i competed in pin design and got top 10 in state and top 5 at regionals - ironically started this because of animation teacher - im the elect-president of our schools chapter
Magnet club: volunteering, lots of college field trips
Student Ambassador: parent tours, orientation, open house, etc..
UNICEF: ..not much
i was adjusting back into the school system and high school itselfthis Fall so i don't have much but what I want to have by the time I'm applying to universities is way more here's the list:
  1. Independent/Lab Research + Internship + Science Fairs (3/4 years in a way) - def can be divided into sections
I want to do independent research this summer (between 9th and 10th) but i don't know how I would be able to find a mentor that would be willing to mentor me through zoom/emails b/c i will def be traveling - advice?
I'm working on talking to the current AP Bio teacher to get our school to participate in in-house science fairs, county science fairs, etc... we don't have that at all so if I get that set up this year then i could take that research i did over the summer and compete in science fairs (+ get published maybe? - tips?)
I want to do lab research in 10th grade + maybe independent research (over the school year) with an actual program (internship) that my school has with a local university - its usually for 11th graders but I think I could do it. If not, I want to get in on another professor's research (cold email/cold call method)
I want to do lab research (another internship) along with independent research again over the summer (in between 10th and 11th). I want to compete in science fairs in 11th grade again with my research from 10th grade or 10th-grade summer (maybe both)
Repeat the same process for 11th (if i didn't get into the internship program in 10th then ill def do it this year) i also have a whole period (AP Research) to pursue it - ill use this to compete in my senior year
Over the summer (between 11th and 12th) as I mentioned earlier I want to get into a competitive research program for high school students like RSI or SSP - if not then i might be successful in the olympiads (which is next) or i might do another project that seems fun to me at that time (probably CS or lots of blogging)
I currently am doing an online internship (HSIP) but it mainly focuses on health science immersion rather than hardcore science - I plan to do a CS one over the summer with the same program (have to apply to get + fairly competitive in my state)

  1. Olympiads + STEM Competitions (technically all 4 years) - 4 diff things
USABO
- I'm literally writing out the mission statement right now along with a club constitution - i plan on launching the club this year but really properly beginning it next year (my sophomore year)
Maybe make it to Round 3 - finalist - i have the chance to take it three times
For the club though I kind of want to make it just "Biology Club" and have it really broad instead of just USABO but im not sure how ill go about it (if its just a USABO club then we'll be doing lectures, hosting practice exams, kahoots, labs, practicing, learning, etc.. I'd have to get teaching coordinators who've already taken AP Biology though since i haven't - im currently doing that right now)
ik lots of schools have like 4/5+ biology-oriented clubs but my school doesnt have that and i feel like if i compile all of them into one then that would be better than having 4+ clubs that kind of do the same thing - at the same time I feel like it's way too much for just one club but here's what I have so far:
The purpose of this club is to provide opportunities for students interested in science, biology, and healthcare to engage in activities that promote learning, exploration, and service.
Overall, the purpose of this club is to create a community of like-minded individuals who are committed to learning, service, and making a positive impact in the world while having fun.
It's definitely a lot for just one club but idk - help?
Some of these activities carry into the next ECs (numbers 3 and 4)
Math
- AIME, AMC 10/12, USAJMO??
Aops?
Start a math league - not to serious on this but it would be nice
Could tutor kids math (i love tutoring my brother math)
Robotics - advisor is working on starting a CS Honors Society Chapter
FIRST Robotics (i think our school has a decent team and really great advisors from what I've seen so far so we could rly make it)
Hackathons + coding competitions (researching still)
Outreach with middle schoolers/elementary kids
Ik honors societies r kinda cliche but i have a lot of cool activities we could do
MESA?
  1. Volunteering (4 years)
i love listening to ppl talk abt their experiences + love talking so any volunteering opportunity that lets me talk or listen is a go-to - i like ppl more than office work
Volunteering at clinics, hospitals, and nursing homes (currently working on finding some to apply for..)
  1. Shadowing - yk.. (4 years)
feel like this will actually be pretty cool - mass emailing to get one over the coming spring break also might ask my own doctor but idk how to approach her -help?
100-200 hours maybe - tips?
- 2-3 different specialties
really great learning experience
  1. Speech and Debate (4 years)
i want:
x (number) NSDA Finalist (maybe even top 3) - in Speech, not Debate
x (number) NSDA Semi-finalist
x (number) NSDA Qualifier (maybe even this year)
NSDA Merit Point Awards - there's a lot of merit awards tbh
a ton of regional, state and district awards
i have:
2 bronze medals in regionals and 1 silver medal in state
(tips on how to grow here besides competitions, i was thinking of recruiting more members and. teaching younger kids)
  1. Community Outreach (4 years?) - idk researching + working on this
I teach around 15 7-12 year old kids every other Sunday at my church (bible, discipline, etc..)
I want to grow this and maybe make it a larger community for Habeshas, not only young kids but older teens and young adults maybe organize a curriculum-based Sunday school and have speakers that come give speeches (help network)
if that's established then maybe organize a soup kitchen as a group (sm like Meals on Wheels or just serving hot meals at homeless shelters)
or donating goods/supplies, and fundraising
maybe starting a community service project in Ethiopia .. building a school or tutoring young children
Start a club at school EASA (east african student association) that collabs with BSU to do fun activities together
thoughts?
  1. Other stuff:
wanttt/extra/prolly not going to do half of these:
Blogging: 1k+ views/reads
Magnet Club: volunteering, lots of college field trips (President? - not many responsibilities)
Lead Student Ambassador: parent tours, orientation, open house, etc.. (- not many responsibilities)
National Honors Society: volunteering (President - not many responsibilities)
Class of 2026 Student-Elect President: student activities, fundraising
Peer Tutoring/Mentoring
Book Club - read books and talk about them (founder?)
Webmaster: Personal Web Site (making one) + USABO / Bio Club Website + Robotics Team Website + Speech & Debate Team Website
Journalism: student-led science newsletter, personal blog, LA Times HS Insider?, School Newspaper Editor In Chief (journalism is a class at our school but the teacher is def willing to make it a club)
Student Scholarship and Contest Federation: tips on writing winning essays, examples of winning essays, and leadership opportunities - win either a scholarship or a contest that ur passionate abt by the end of the year
Writing contests - creative writing?
Podcast: olympiads, biology-related, robotics, math, computer science, church: new fun topics or concepts - educational or entertainment
YouTube Channel: personal+ maybe for robotics (help other teams in the district - I've seen other teams do it)

2023.03.23 09:29 Other-Borderlands K♠️ : Come Seek

K♠️ : Come Seek
K♠️ : Come Seek
This game is part of a series of games, where I am writing games for all 52 cards for a borderlands in the UK. Each one includes a story of how I imagine the game playing out. You can find all entries here.
Venue: Forest outside of the city. (~3 days away)
Player limit: Unlimited
Rules: At the bottom of the story.

Remaining Games
?th Day of Sojourn
Mia left the building in triumph, and began to make her way back towards the school.
However, as she was making her way, she decided to go a different way. As she was the only winner of the game, no one would realise she was missing, they would just assume her dead.
She turned, trying to find an adequate place to stay. She thought back to the Nine of Spades, where she had found her knack for spades games. Before the borderlands she had been quite different, but with rigid training routines she was on her way to becoming the best spades player in the land, or so she liked to believe.
First Day of Exhibitions
The Unknown.
He loved the wilderness. Admittedly, there was little of it left in the UK, so he had gone to other countries in search of adventure. He had decided to return home this summer, and he had been met at the airport by his two friends. Then he awoke here, in his car, with his two friends, who had been exited for his return home.
This was his home now. The wilderness, about 7 days walk from the city. He looked up at the massive blimp above his head, the king of spades hanging down. How had the world come to this?
His life here, the past few years, had been an experience. He knew there was now no way back for him, and that death waited with the arrival of this blimp. He didn’t want to go, but this was his choice. Soon the players would be here.
Alex
She had only just made it out of the Queen of Spades game alive, and now she had agreed to play another Spades game? What was she thinking? Alex walked with the school kids to the store they had spoken about, and they kitted up with boots, 40 litre backpacks, tents, food rations, etc., splitting the duty fairly evenly. They also grabbed miscellaneous wilderness supplies, medicine, first aid, water supplies, etc.
She carefully put on the backpack with the assistance of one of the kinder of the two school kids, Tom, who explained that with this heavy a pack slinging it over your shoulder could cause back damage.
“Looks like my DofE is really coming in handy.” He joked, as the others got their packs ready. There were four of them all together, Ellis, Tom, Alex, and Flo. She hadn’t really met any of them during the first stage, but they had introduced themselves now, and they were going to have to work together if they wanted to clear the King of Spades.
Ellis checked the time on his pocket watch he had wound up and set based on a sundial the schoolboy she met, James, had made.
“It’s just after 6, we can get some walking in before camping out for the night, as two or three hors are better than none.” He said, leading them out of the shop.
They began to make their way down the street, to the desolate wasteland that lay beyond the city, a mix of forests and mountains, as far as the eye could see, a solitary King of Spades hanging in the distance.
“You aren’t going to forget about me, are you?” A voice called from behind them, and Tom turned, followed by a surprised Ellis.
“That’s… Your dead…” Tom said in confusion.
“Clearly not. Also, I’m joining you on this journey. Don’t worry, I’ll be self sufficient. It’s all packed.” Mia said, showing them her Backpack. “You should remember, my group got back first on DofE!”
“Alright. We need all the help we can get. But if you get on my nerves too much, I’ll leave you alone in the woods.” Ellis said, and they walked off.
The first hour of walking was always the worst, before everything started to fall away and you lost track of time. It was the worst part, and she trudged through the forest, over rocks, all with the group, watching their backpacks sway from side to side.
The walk continued for what felt like a while, but she knew this would be the least intensive of the days, the next few being four times as long, and likely four times as arduous. She looked at the hill towering in the distance, and knew tomorrow they would be going up it.
They arrived at the base of it, and Ellis checked the time, before deciding they would set up camp here for the night. They began unpacking, and she, Tom and Mia were assigned to setting up the tents, while Ellis would work on the fire and the food, and Flo would establish a boundary and some traps for animals, fo which Ellis gave her a book and a battery powered flashlight, as well as some of the materials needed.
Alex, Tom and Mia had put the poles together on the tents, and were beginning to thread them through the plastic fabric of the tent, as Mia began to ask her about her time in the borderlands.
She told her about her first game, the encounter with James, then the Fibonacci Gaps of the six of spades, her time with Katherine, the seven of hearts…
“Really, Ben did all that? What a sack of shit he is. Honestly, not surprised you faked your death. We found out he was bad during the ten of hearts game, but never realised quite how bad he was…” Tom said.
“What about you then, Mia?” Alex asked her, and by the time the tents were up the three of them had formed quite a good bond.
Once everything was set up for the night, they sat around the fire, eating food, telling stories, recounting their lives.
For the first time since the seven of hearts, Alex felt happy.
-
They settled into sleep that night, Alex in the warm embrace of a sleeping bag, the tent fluttering in the light breeze. It had been a rollercoaster of a day, but she needed to get a good nights sleep, in preparation for the next few days of hiking.
Second Day of Exhibitions
The Unknown
He took some supplies from his cool box, while sat in his cabin.
Why had he even decided to stay here? This was not how he wanted his life, and he was alone, in the wilderness, where he wanted to be, yet he still felt out of place. He didn’t want to stay in this land, but now he was stuck. He had given up his chance of returning of the old world, and now he sat there, in his self-built log cabin, waiting. He waited for his death. He knew that someone would come, and that the worst mistake of his life would come to light. He thought a definitive chance at winning was better than dying immediately, but he had been wrong. What had he done?
Tom
He awoke early that morning, next to Ellis. He checked the time, before winding up the pocket watch and unzipping the tent and stepping outside.
The world was covered by a thin layer of dew, and the air smelt fresh. He walked over to the burnt out ashes of yesterdays fire, taking a seat next to it, on a cold rock.
He thought about the day, and got ready for it, putting on his boots and preparing breakfast, before waking the others.
Unlike the evening before, they ate in relative silence, uttering the occasional word when absolutely necessary.
They packed up the tents, now talking a little more. They folded the tents carefully, while Flo checked the traps.
They had finally finished packing up, and they prepared for the day. Tom laced up his boots, and stood up, grabbing his backpack.
They set off around 7:00-7:30, beginning their trek up the hill. The hill was at a steep incline, and they walked up a winding path across the side of the hill, stabilising themselves on rocks, sliding through wet grass, mud. They spent hours on the incline, stopping for a short break about halfway up, as well as various other water stops. They were exhausted, and as the sun went under, they were almost at the summit, pushing themselves further up the hill, until they arrived.
As he finished the climb, he collapsed at the top, before looking to see how far away the King of spades now was.
He looked in horror at the mountain a little further away, towering, the King of Spades blimp hovering in the sky. Tomorrow was going to be a much more perilous and arduous trek than today, he thought, and Ellis suggested they set up camp here.
They cycled the roles this time, Ellis on traps, Alex on food, and Flo with Mia and him setting up tents.
They were now in a much more conversational mood, talking with Flo, asking her about her time in this country, explaining theirs.
They also spoke about their time before arriving here, discussing the fireworks, their arrival.
“Well, maybe it’s aliens?” Flo suggested.
“But why? That wouldn’t make any sense!” He responded, and Ellis came over, disrupting their discussion to inform them that the traps had been set up.
They gathered around todays campfire, and began to eat, talking about nothing and everything.
As their meal came to a conclusion, Ellis announced he had something for them, and went into his bag, retrieving a bottle of Alcohol.
“Let us drink! For tomorrow we may die!” He exclaimed, laughing, taking a swig from the bottle.
Flo frowned at first, but realised that underage drinking was the least of their problems at the moment. Alex passed on the drink, and so did Mia, but still, before they knew it the bottle was empty, and Ellis was fast asleep, while Tom and Flo couldn’t stop laughing.
Alex and Mia decided it would be best to get some sleep.
They settled for the night, and eventually the others stopped laughing and retreated into their tents and sleeping bags, and Alex drifted off to sleep, into into a dream.
Third Day of Exhibitions
The Unknown
He awoke on his bed, and stepped out onto the patio, smelling the early morning air, and appreciating the wildernesses beauty. He stood, his arms outstretched, and he took in all of the surroundings. The city was a way away, and from here, he could see it, I all its small nature. He walked around his cabin, grateful to be alive. He stopped however, catching sight of a plume of smoke rising from near the base of the mountain, and he went inside to grab his binoculars.
He walked back outside, looking through them, at the smoke, and what he saw confirmed his suspicions. There was a group coming to find him. How intriguing.
Mia
She awoke to someone punching the side of her tent.
“Mia! Alex! Get up, we need to get going!” Ellis shouted to them through the outside of the tent.
She got up groggily, putting on her shoes before stepping out into the dew covered meadow where they had pitched their tents. Sunlight streamed down over the top of the mountain, starting to bathe their tents in a warm glow.
Mia walked over to the fire, picking up some of the food that had been prepared, and began to eat it. She looked at the mountain, knowing about the dangerous day ahead, scaling it. At the top of the mountain a mist was starting to form, obscuring the massive King of spades, and where it was they were aiming for.
She finished eating, and then helped pack their tents up. They loaded them into their rucksacks before setting off, walking towards the mountain.
The day started with a walk on a mild incline, where Mia found herself talking to Ellis, and they talked about why they wanted to get back. Ellis told her how at first he hadn’t wanted to go back, but now, he wished he could. That was why he was challenging the King of Spades.
Mia continued her conversation, but her shoulders, arms and legs were aching, from two days of carrying so much. Later in the day, she fell behind Ellis, talking to Tom. Tom was quite nice, and despite having made it to Ben’s inner circle wasn’t totally ruthless.
They clambered over some rocks, and Tom slipped, cutting himself on a sharp edge of rock. He shouted, but insisted he was fine and could continue. They continued, Tom continuing to exhale sharply and wince every couple of steps. The walk was exhausting, but they pushed on, stopping at a larger rock for a break and some water. The sun had reached its peak in the sky, and it was boiling, so much warmer than it had been in the morning. This pace was a nightmare weather wise, and she just wanted to get back to the old world. Mia didn’t want to know why all this had happened, she just wanted to get back home.
Ellis and Flo had been talking, and so had Alex and Mia. Mia liked Alex, while this world had made her quite uncaring, she was a good person. Mia had even with her talks with Ellis almost managed to forgive him. She had heard him crying at night over everything he had done. She hadn’t told him.
They were about two thirds of the way up the mountain when it happened. They were walking along a small ridge when Tom’s leg flared up in pain. He shouted, tipping towards the edge.
“Tom!” Mia shouted, reaching out her hand to catch him. He hung from her hand, over the edge. She tried so hard to pull him up, but she couldn’t , and he just, let go.
They spent the rest of the walk in almost full silence. Mia let out a few tears for tom, but continued. In the old world this would have been a tragedy, but by now they were already so used to the death and the destruction that they just kept going.
They arrived at the top of the mountain, the King of Spades blimp flying a few 100 metres ahed, above a log cabin, surrounded by trees. They cautiously approached the cabin, and Flo felt something curl around her leg.
She let out a shout as she was hoisted into the tree by her foot. They looked around, and they heard the door of the cabin door opening.
A man walked out, and towards the trap. He cut Flo out of it, and introduced himself.
“Hello. Welcome to Come Seek. Difficulty: King of Spades. Rules: Make it here, to this cabin, and Back, without dying. Don’t worry, I won’t interfere. Now, I’ve finished the rules, so come in, and you can restock and prepare for your return to the city.”
“What? You mean all we have to do is walk back?” Mia asked, as Flo stood up.
“Yes. It’s that simple.” The King said, walking back towards the Cabin. “You know, I built this cabin myself. Away from people, to avoid them, but now I’ve come to regret my choice of staying. When it is your turn, I hope you don’t make the same mistake I did.”
He walked away before the others could ask him anything, only stopping to turn back for one thing.
“You might want to go and see the Jack of Clubs after you finish my game.”
They were confused by his comment, but brushed it off, and they walked into the cabin, refilling their packs for the next three hard days of walking back to the city.
Mia wasn’t sure what to think about the King. He certainly wasn’t what she was expecting.
They Slept in the cabin that night, using the insulation and heat that it provided.
The King didn’t return.
Fourth Day of Exhibitions
They awoke in the cabin the next day, the King still absent. Ellis told them it would likely be a good idea to get going again, and Flo grabbed a little food from the fridge in the cabin, offering a little to everyone. They ate in silence, still fazed by Tom’s death and the strange nature of the King. They began to pack up again, rolling up mats, putting their sleeping bags away.
They opened the cabin door, ready to depart. The day had broken recently, and sunlight streamed over the horizon, and the ground was littered with dew. The day was still quite cold, but by the time they started moving and the sun rose in the sky it would be unbearably hot.
The straps of their backpacks rubbed against their shoulders as they walked, and their arms and legs ached, but Mia was preoccupied.
The King had been so different from what she had expected, and she began discussing it with Alex, one of the two of them that had met another citizen. Alex told her how she too had been caught off guard by the king. She had expected that if the game was as he explained he would be tracking them, and trying to stop them, but he had told them he wouldn’t, and seeing as this was spades, meant it was unlikely he was lying.
They continued down the mountain, over rocks, along the path they had walked previously, the grass still flattened from their walk the day before. They retraced their steps, and Mia stopped briefly when she saw the mangled shape of Tom on the rocks below. She forced herself on, but she could feel the off-putting effect it had had on the others. They took a different path once they got down, so they wouldn’t have to go past Tom’s corpse.
After a while of walking they arrived at the previous campsite, their past fire’s ashes on the floor, surrounded by rocks, and They remembered how carefree they had been that night, before it had truly kicked off.
They set up for the night, putting up their tents.
There was no large campfire, no happiness, they simply went to sleep.
Or tried to.
Mia had difficulty trying to get the image of Tom out of her head, and it took a little before she could close her eyes without seeing him.
Over the past few days the walking had become less and less noticeable, as she was getting better and better at zoning out while doing it. The start was always hard, but by the time the sun truly rose the day passed quickly.
This world had changed her so much, and she wasn’t even sure of who she was anymore. She used to be so different, and now she was trekking through the wilderness for her own life.
She managed to fall asleep, but the night was rough.
She awoke in the night after seeing Tom fall from the cliff again. She got up and left the tent, making sure not to wake her tent-mate. She sat around the embers of the fire, and was joined a few moments later by Alex.
“Hey.” Alex said.
“Hey.” Mia replied, poking the fire with a stick.
“Couldn’t sleep?”
“Yeah.”
“Tom?”
“Yeah.”
“Look, Im not going to pretend I know what to say here, but we’ll work through it, ok? So far, all I’ve seen from you is strength, and I’m sure you can work through it.”
“Thanks.”
“Well, you might want to get some sleep.”
Alex returned to the tent, and soon Mia followed her. She didn’t want to be sleepy tomorrow. She wanted to get back to the city as quickly as possible, and she couldn’t afford to be below standard due to lack of sleep.
Fifth Day of Exhibitions
Flo woke up first that morning, getting out of her tent, hitting the sides of the others tents to get them up. She got out some food as the others were still waking, before giving each of them some. She had already taken her tent down by the time Ellis left his tent, and they were sat around as he finished his food.
“I’ve had a thought.” He said, looking at them.
“What?” Flo asked, intrigued.
“We’ve been quite slow these past few days, we could get back faster if we ditched the packs.” Ellis said.
“What!?” They said to him, almost in unison.
“Well, judging by the distance and our pace, we do about 13-18 Km a day. Most of you here are quite good runners, and I can do 20 Km in a few hours. It’ll be hard, but its definitely possible and we would make it before the end of today.” He explained.
“Since when did you become good at maths?” Mia said, teasing him. “But seriously, that’s not a bad idea, although we have to be sure we’ll make it, being out in this wilderness without protection is not something I want to do.”
“Are both of you crazy?” Flo said.
“I’d like to get back to the city as fast as possible, I definitely think it’s worth a try.” Alex said.
“Fine” Flo agreed, and they didn’t bother packing up their tents. They reached grabbed some water, and began jogging down the hill.
The hill was the hardest part of the run, staying at a steady pace while maintaining balance and going down it was difficult, but soon they were at the bottom.
Their arms ached, and their lungs were bursting, but they continued into the forest, running past various places they had seen before, and they stopped for a serious break about halfway back.
A few of them were gasping for breath, and they drank a lot of their water.
They pushed on though, running past their campsite, through the trees, and onwards.
The sun began to grow lower in the sky, and what they estimated was around five, they finally broke through the last barrier of trees, and stepped out onto the tarmac road of the city, dripping in sweat, bent over, out of breath.
They quickly drank the rest of their water, before going to find a place to sleep, more water, and food.
The four of them were tired, and eventually they holed themselves up inside a detached house on the outskirts of town.
There was no edible food in the house, but they did find water. They drank almost all of it, and they settled down as evening set in. Mia managed to find a set of cards, and suggested they play a game.
“Like a card game, obviously…” Before laughing nervously.
They began to play, as Mia explained the rules.
They were having fun, almost forgetting the nature of the place they were in, getting engrossed in their free time activity.
Their illusion of safety was broken by the voice announcing that the King of Spades had been defeated, and that Alex, Ellis, Flo and Mia had gained 13 days on their Visas.
They all looked at each moment, before returning to their game, trying to go back to their earlier state of ignorance.
After a couple of rounds, they went to sleep, now knowing they were safe for another few days.
Sixth Day of Exhibitions
They awoke at a normal time, and Flo was grateful to have been able to sleep in a proper bed. She looked around the room she was in, wondering what had happened to the people who had once lived here, and the old world.
She was saddened by the thought it might not be possible to go back, and they simply might be forced to stay here and become citizens. Who knew.
She got up, seeing no-one else had gotten up yet, and seeing the place, decided she was done with what she had aimed to do. She had beaten the King, and now she had no reason to stay here. She looked at the two blimps left, the King of hearts, and the Jack of Clubs, and the King of Hearts. The Fact that it still hung in the sky, meant it was unlikely that her friends were left alive. She looked down sadly. She was the last performer. The last of a group almost 30 big. She walked over to it.
If Alfie, Tracy and Roger couldn’t clear it, she would in their memory.
When Ellis awoke, he looked around the house, seeing if anyone else had woken yet. He spotted Flo’s empty bed, and didn’t fault her for leaving.
He looked out the window, seeing the only other remaining games being the Jack of Clubs and the King of hearts.
After Alex and Mia got up, he called them down to tell them he wanted to see what the Jack of Clubs was about. Not to play it, just see what the King meant by seeing the Jack of Clubs after his game.
They agreed, and they walked over to the castle, above which the Jack of Clubs blimp hung, spotting two familiar figures waiting fro them at the gates.
TL,DR: get to the Kings blimp, and back to the city without dying. There is no time limit, other than visa.

2023.03.22 22:35 AhbzV Higurashi Ep. 8 - Matsuribayashi (Thoughts and Review-ish)

Chapter 1 Review // Chapter 2 Review // Chapter 3 Review // Chapter 4 Review // Chapter 5 Review // Chapter 6 Review // Chapter 7 Review
Context - This is my eighth review of Higurashi. As stated in earlier reviews, I have no experience with anime, manga, or Visual Novels (with the exception of DDLC). This play through is also blind, as I knew nothing about the game before jumping in. With this in mind, let's get to the analysis of Matsuribayashi.
Episode Eight - Matsuribayashi (SPOILERS BELOW)
If you want to skip my initial thoughts on the plot of the arc, skip down to reaction to get my analysis of the story as a whole.
Initial Reactions: Fun fact about myself, I hate endings. I struggle finishing stories because endings bum me out. I hate having to say goodbye to a world and characters I spent time getting to know, even if it is fictional. Needless to say, I struggled with finishing Higurashi. I had to force myself to read despite often not wanting to, and I am happy I did.
The first four chapters of this arc were backstory for Takano. Truthfully, I found these to be, mostly, very boring. The orphanage scene was intense, and learning about her transformation from Miyoko Tanashi to Miyo Takano was interesting, but the rest of the scenes were a bit slow for me. But these scenes did establish an important plot point - Takano's desire to avoid having her grandfather's work stepped on, both literally and figuratively. Furthermore, the final scene in Takano's background was excellent, her face off with Hanyuu. It corrected the misconception that Takano's battle was with Rika. It never was, it was always with Hanyuu.
Connecting the fragments was very cool. For a largely un-interactive VN, this bit of interaction was a very nice touch. It filled in the few remaining cracks in our knowledge, and beautifully set up "the game board" for which the rest of Matsuribayashi would take place.
I could spend hours discussing each fragment, but I only want to touch on two instances. First, the splendid moment of Keiichi's father seeing Rika and Hanyuu play in the field. This fragment had been hinted at earlier in Higurashi, but getting to see it play out was a genuinely beautiful moment (especially when coupled with the piano score by Dai). His insight about why children playing is beautiful because it makes us reminisce on our own lost innocence was deep. And while yes, Keiichi's father sometimes comes off as a bit creepy, I found this moment to be very innocent as he saw the future his own son could have.
Secondly, there was an immense horror that creeped through my mind when it seemed as if Satoshi would be dissected for the sake of research. This was a very well done red herring, as I truly believed Irie (or at least Takano behind his back) sliced open Satoshi for the sake of furthering their research into Hinamizawa Syndrome.
After connecting the fragments, we are given a glimpse into Akasaka's life. And it becomes clear he will be the X-Factor the club needs to finally, maybe, defeat Takano. Also, he's a badass. Sure, some of his fights are a bit over the top, but I was fine with it. His character model in the console arc is very corny, so I used the Remake models for his scenes because he actually looks like a monster fighter.
After the fragments, the arc picks up at school where they have a new student - Hanyuu. Hanyuu's introduction was brilliant with the line "Therefore she didn't exist" later followed by "To be involved in something is the same as to exist. Therefore, she existed." *chef's kiss* Tremendous writing. Hanyuu was now on the stage, and immediately the arc started with a type of hope unfamiliar to Higurashi.
Naturally, everyone loves Hanyuu. Rena wants to kidnap her, the club accepts her, and she fits perfectly. There were some questions about her horns, but everyone simply accepts her for who she is. To me, this quick acceptance of Hanyuu and all of her quirks is a microcosm of Higurashi's overarching point about friendship - it doesn't matter about a person's oddities or their past, if a person is truly "our friend" we will and should accept them.
Hanyuu guides Rika through setting up the plan to combat Takano and eventually everyone is brought into the loop. The battle is nears its start again, but this time the club has a secret trump card - Akasaka. I said in my last review how I believed Akasaka would be critical in defeating the conspiracy, and that rang true. Without Akasaka, things would have never gotten off the ground.
We see some huge character development from Ooishi, as he accepts his mistakes then accepts the risk in taking down the conspiracy. He even makes up with Akane Sonozaki and they become mahjong buddies by the end. Ironically, as important as Akasaka was to their success, Ooishi played (arguably) an equally big part. He wasn't just helpful to the club in his actions, he was also helpful in what he failed to do - create paranoia around the Sonozaki family. In nearly all of the arcs, Ooishi is partly responsible for a character's descent into a maddened, paranoid state. In this arc, he spreads none of this. He is simply reliable, and that is what the club needed.
While I expected more trading of punches between the two sides, the battle between Takano and the club is largely one-sided. Tomitake is captured, and Irie nearly dies. Furthermore, the Mountain Dogs and Okonogi almost capture Rika, but she is saved by Akasaka in a triumphant entrance. Side note, this guy absolutely manhandled the Mountain Dogs and Okonogi. I was a bit bummed he didn't land his haymaker on Okonogi, but by the end I understand why (and appreciate why) they had Okonogi make it out of that fight.
But after these events, the Mountain Dogs and Takano are completely outclassed. While there are a couple close calls with the team who raid the clinic, Mion's plan goes off, more or less, without a hitch. Mion was never truly given a chapter, and while this is definitely not a Mion-centric chapter, she gets some love here. She is shown to be a shrewd commander capable of outthinking someone of Okonogi's status. In an interesting and heart-warming scene, Okonogi pays his respects to Mion when he reaches her. He wants a warrior's end, and she gives it to him. But Mion is not happy at the end of it, but we never understand why.
Also Satoshi is alive and being treated for Hinamizawa Syndrome. Shion and Satoshi deserve their own analysis, but I will leave that to THIS excellent video discussing Shion and her relationship with Satoshi.
The final tense moment comes when Takano draws her gun (with one bullet) and intends to shoot one of the club members. I enjoyed the symbolic nature of this moment, as Rika subverses the expectation established throughout the chapter. We are constantly told of the figure who needs to take on the sins of humanity to bring peace. We naturally expect someone to die because of this, we expect there to be a sacrifice. But Rika corrects this line of thought and states the world didn't need a sacrifice, it needed the card it was missing (Hanyuu). She stops the bullet when time freezes, and Takano is arrested.
Tomitake saves, in a way, Takano. He takes her to the Irie Clinic stating she may have contracted Hinamizawa Syndrome.The chapter concludes happily, and for the first time in all of Higurashi there is a truly happy ending.
I want to touch on the Staff Room scene, because it (to me) is important to understanding why Takano isn't killed or disgraced at the end. Ryukishi states that he did not want there to be winners and losers. He, throughout the eight arcs, carefully crafted a message about the need for people to come together to help one another, stating that when we avoid this then conflict arises. He acknowledges that maybe Matsuribayashi is not the perfect ending to this world, but he is happy with the message he has created. And with that, the curtain closed on Higurashi.
Review: I have taken a lot of time to process the ending of this story. I was emotional finishing it because I have sunk so many hours into this over the past four months. Yes, I know there are animes and console arcs I can watch/play (and I probably will), but this is the original. This is from the lips of the creator himself. This was his 4.5 year project. When I think of Higurashi, I will always think of these eight arcs first.
Furthermore, I could dig in and analyze all of the characters. But that would require a short novel in and of itself. Instead, I will just highlight my thoughts on the culmination of the Higurashi story.
To me, this is a masterpiece. It is a shame that the medium of this story (Visual Novel) keeps this story from getting the exposure and appreciation it deserves. We are looking at a story longer than Harry Potter that steps across multiple genres of storytelling. Higurashi is not a psychological horror, it is not a mystery, it is not a tragedy, it is all of these things in a single story. To me, this deserves the love that something like Star Wars or Harry Potter gets. I don't want a fucking Harry Potter world at Disneyworld, I want a Hinamizawa at Disney World (I've never actually been to Harry Potter World so don't crucify my off-handed criticism).
But masterpiece does not mean perfect or without flaw. There are definitely scenes that are a bit over the top/corny. For instance, the idea that a group of five teenagers can outwit and level an entire unit of trained, counterintelligence agents is unrealistic. There was nothing indicating Rika could step through frozen time and stop a bullet. Akasaka probably can't 1v5 a fight. I recognize the flaws in these scenarios.
But the masterpiece comes from the symbolic significance of these scenes. Higurashi spends seven arcs showing the club members go through so much shit, and we see them all grow significantly. To them, after seven arcs of chaos, the battle with the Mountain Dogs is nothing more than a club game and it highlights their unfettered trust and love in one another. Yes, Rika had never been able to move through frozen time to stop a bullet. But the story always stated that Rika was one miracle away from escaping her dark fate. This was that miracle. Through the sheer will of everyone involved, a miracle happens. Akasaka was so overwhelmed by grief because of his failure to save his wife and Rika that he spent his remaining days training as a way to try and rectify his "wrongs." Once he is given that chance, he does rectify his mistakes because of his training and preparation.
In the same way that all visual art is not intended to be hyperrealism, Higurashi is not intended to be a hyper-realistic piece of fiction. It is a story about the complexity of friendship, the need to learn to live with one's mistakes, and the unknown truth that we don't need losers (i.e. we don't need an us vs. them mentality). In a society (at least in America) where traits such as isolationism and distrust are common, the first half of Higurashi serves as a warning to how these ideas can tear relationships and people apart. Kai then conveys the beauty that can arise when we trust those in our lives and challenge the ideas that we believe hold us back from attaining that which we want.
Mion encapsulates this idea perfectly. When Okonogi is heaping praises upon her stating that she could command any army in the world, Mion proudly exclaims that she wants none of it. She wants to play with her friends and enjoy life with them. Mion is not driven by selfish desires and she does not believe her dream is unattainable. In those final scenes, Mion believes nothing can stop them, and she places all of her trust in those around her.
So this was Higurashi. I could say so much more, but like Ryukishi said - it is up to you to create what you want from Hinamizawa. I have loved this story, and I am heartbroken that the journey is over. I'll play Rei, but I probably won't write anything about it. If you have read this review and/or any of my other reviews, I appreciate you joining me in this journey. I don't think I could have chosen a better first Visual Novel.
I'm not sure what I will read next, I am considering Clannad or Fata Morgana, but haven't decided on anything. I will eventually get to Umineko, but I want to change the genre up a tiny bit. But who knows, maybe I will just start Umineko. I have sixteen hours of travel this coming weekend, so if you have suggestions please drop them below!
Once again, thanks to everyone who contributed their thoughts and ideas to my reading. Take care everyone :)

2023.03.22 01:10 Jean_dodge67 First draft o a narrative timeline of the chaotic medical evacuation /aftermath, combining what has been made public - livestream, news accounts, b-roll videos, helicopter footage, etc. - needs input pls

TLDR This is a crude and rough initial attempt to place many known events into a narrative order with some semblance of a time stamp to them. It concerns the time of 12:50 to aproximately 3pm? or later the day of the shootings.
lengthy intro, feel free to skip this part
You will see I don't get too far on the time stamp part, and I'm sure I'm leaving out known and likely vital events we know of, too. But the sources are scattered and their narratives jumbled as well. It does begin to sketch a picture though, to tell the story as best as I can from the top of my head. I'd like to make this a lot more factual and probably should make it a lot less "editorial," as well. But it is like the old joke, what do you call a thousand lawyers at the bottom of the lake? "A good start."
I'm POSITIVE some of this is wrong. But I wanted to start somewhere before it all gets turned to mush in my brain. I keep notes but later they don't always make perfect sense to me because all the information comes in from every angle and it's spinning like a top, usually as well. . I'm not a historian, or a true crime reporter. I'm an amateur on the internet in this regard, please forgive me and help me get it right where you can. I dont mean to offend anyone, either. Hopefully we are all in this together, to establish the truth here. How can we have any real opinions or accountability or make the best policy decisions moving forward, or honor the fallen, or sue the heck out of one another, for that matter, without first establishing the basic facts.
It's just what sloughed off my keyboard this morning as I woke and once again tried to make sense of what makes no sense. why, ten months on we have to peice this together from corporate news accounts' hastily assembled snippets of B-roll, local rumor, internet conjecture (mine and yours, dear readers), leaks and bodycams edited and truncated by a hired PR firm for the city of Uvalde, and other odd sources coming across the ether and "over the transom," meaning we don't know who told us this.
This will be a partial timeline from a shattered afternoon where almost everyone present was in some sort of a state of shock, yet waving cheap and crude videocameras of various sorts and disordered eventual custody around in back of a school no one paid much attention to before, and that will soon be razed to the ground. And about which NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE other than to board up the windows and wipe up the blood. One important source seems to be a "whistleblower" who may in fact be a "bad actor" working to just help spread out bad news as slowly and poorly as possible, selectively omitting the worst of the worst. Who can say?
It's a portrait of chaos, drawn from chaos. A vision of hell from someone who wasn't even there, but can't stop imagining it somehow. I have little idea why. Some of my friends' children were there, but they were not in the 4th grade. It's probably all none of my business, my only real connection is that my children go to public schools in Texas. And I helped pay for these public records that are so well hidden. That at least means something to me. The rest just seems to spring from common decency and having an empathetic heart. I couldn't rightly say why any of us are here almost a year later but we are. It all started with a bang. And it all ends in sin and tears, like my grandmother would say.
The TLDR is that 21 people were murdered and a bunch of people who were only attempted to be murdered were mishandled by idiot cowards and dragged hither and yon while parents were tackled, tased and traumatized. The rest is just the gory sad details.
Don't read it if you can can help it. Horesman, pass by. But if you must, know this: it isn't pretty and it likely won't fix much of anything. But maybe just maybe it's part of path towards eventual healing or as Senator Gutierrez says, looking forward someday to "a slightly duller ache of pain."
There is no good place to start this narrative, the story of the "Aftermath." This is the wrong place but it's where I began so here it is:
Draft Narrative:
If it was Noah and AJ who ended up in an ambulance with Mayah, it seems like one of them may have originally been on the bus but taken off fairly quickly. The narrative from the lawsuit by the bus driver seems to say a boy was put on her bus but quickly taken off because of the seriousness of his injuries, or perhaps like with Mrs Mireles, the frantic cops seemed to have tunnel vision and couldn't find the ambulances at first and when one was finally right in front of them, they stumbled towards it instead.
It's also related that a dead child was placed into one ambulance, and that's why there were three in the other. Extrapolating from there it's also possible Mrs Mireles was eventually taken off the sidewalk and put in the ambulance with the dead boy still inside, or maybe she was moved to an ambulance the finally arrived from Main Street holding area.
The WP/TT/PP story has an excellently detailed animation of where ambulances and school busses came and went, beginning with the initial two ambulances. But it doesn't say who was placed inside any of them. The lead bus leaves the line at the funeral home where at least two livestream cams had caught the frantic scramble of LEOs to march and carry kids from the school to the bus. I'm not sure how many kids were on the bus. I haven't even re-read the lawsuit account yet.
Finding a sync point in order to put time stamps to the animation and the citizen livestream recordings for us poor saps denied full versions of public records videos is difficult. It seems likely the bulk of vehicle movement animation is drawn from DPS helicopter video and of course the funeral home cameras. We don't have those, but we can see snippets of them her and there the DPS helicopter at least. It's the one with the rangefinder marking and what looks almost like a weapon system crosshairs superimposed on screen. The story itself mentions LEO bodycam as well. Don't forget Crimson Elizondo is said to have ridden the "BORTAC express" school bus and wore an operating bodycam.
But the buses began to move - then stalled - before 1:01. That seems to tell us a few things - the "triage" was perfunctory and swift in getting the kids who could walk - and some who were carried - from the school to the BORTAC Express. But it took more than just one or two minutes, it seesm like it took almost ten to get children onto the BORTAC Express, but less than ten probably. We know one child was so wounded he was taken off the bus and put into an ambulance. likely the one manned by the EMT who treated thee kids, Mayah, AJ and Noah. That's not certain tho.
Two busses in the lead turn left onto Geraldine. Others go right. Were some on a route to civic center? Or to hospital? I need to check routes.
In a sick, sad moment on the Adam Ladezma livestream, seemingly after 12:50 and before 1:01 a US Marshall threatens parents, telling them harshly to move behind the busses or else their kids won't be brought out, and that the present delay is their fault, for standing on the grass off the street north of the busses, blocking no one and nothing. It seems like the scrum of agents are waiting inside, calling and stalling for a path to be cleared for them, rather than trusting that the public wants the same thing they want - for medical aid to be swift.
Some 5-10 minutes earlier the news had spread by word of mouth that the shooter was "in custody" or dead, it seems. The crowd is indeed increasingly distraught, frantic and hostile to LEOs. Some had likely seen a stretcher come out of the school. possibly with the dead child who was locked into an ambulance. And then abandoned, visibly, to some who could see it just across the street, undoubtedly. An air of pandemonium was cresting. No doubt many heard the gunfire at 12:50 or at minimum saw the LEOs n the west doorway courtyard react, after more than an hour of standing around trying to look tough, or whatever.
Then, a gaggle of LEOs, possibly BORTAC and seemingly although not visibly, DPS Crimson Elizondo among them rushes the scrum of children to the first bus, number 17, as seen on a livestream video from the parking lot at a distance in a blurry video. All hell breaks loose. On the door side/ funeral home side, a livestream cam catches some of the chaos as a distraught father is tackled by LEOs who prevent him from reaching his son. The crowd screams in protest, and women begin to loudly and openly wail in abject agony. They've seen THEIR children are bleeding, wounded, in shock, or worse. and all they are told is to "stay back" by the same people who didn't go in an hour ago and get them out.
They should be livid and they should be cursing and shouting, IMO. In some regards, these cops are accessory to murder IMO. A judge will never likely assess that. But they've kidnappend the kids and held them in police custody, arguably but not prevented the shooter from killing them at will for 82 minutes. And they've physcialy blocked those who were willing to immediately intervene.
On the other side of the bus, citizen Adam Ladezma, whose nieces and nephews go to Robb "films" or livestream-captures a child who, on encouragement from his family crawls out the back window of bus 17, the "BORTAC Express" as I'm calling it and is helped down and spirited away from the custody of the lawmen. As you watch, it's likely you feel a sigh of relief. These are poor custodians of children, one is likely assured despite the breakdown order occurring. Anyone would want to get away from their custody and the child readily complies. "When you find yourself going thru hell, keep going."
So there are all these things happening and more, and I'm attempting to put them into a coherent timeline. This is a bad, preliminary attempt to do so but I think the clues exist to do a much better job of outlining the actions. Perhaps the first pass should just be to name all the things that we see or know happened, in whatever order we have. I'm sorta doing that here but not in bullet-outline form, pardon the very poor choice of words.
But as the busses soon get moving, we know the BORTAC Express driver has locked the back door and that she sees Eva Mireles "dead" on the sidewalk being given CPR or at least lying there bleeding. And we know a child is taken off the bus by who she says is BORTAC, I think. She's made her initial turn onto Geraldine and the bus behind her follows her. lead. Does it have kids on it, the #2 bus? Does it have a LEO on it, or instructions where to go? I don't think so. It's just going. There may be a picture of aaLEO on the street speaking to the driver, IIRC, Ill try to find it. The driver wants the heck out of there, who wouldn't? Maybe it hopes to pick up more students and wishes to be closer. Seemingly, no one is put on board as it waits on Gerldine that I can see evidenc of however. It follows the Express off the scene.
The busses move far enough that the #3 and 4, 5, busses can turn right. As they do so, they too seem to stall as a helicopter comes in to land. I think it is the DPS chopper but I cannot be certain. If so, it's potentially one of the things that has delayed the arrival of the medical Air Flite choppers, although that sounds like mainly an oversight or foible of the Medina Fire chief, too. One of the choppers has blood supplies. The end up not getting used at the scene. I'm not sure if they go to the Uvalde hospital, the blood supplies, or back to a Trauma 1 center in San Antonio.
Dust covers the sky and drifts eventually onto the wounded (Eva Mireles, probably, gets covered in it) and and the ambulances that are newly arriving. A famous long-lens photo shows what looks like a 9/11style ash blizzard or. snowstorm-from-hell on the scene looking down Geraldine from the front of the school to chaos, disorder. We move quickly from two ambulances, one locked with a dead child inside and the other overcrowded with kids bleeding on the captains chair, to six or eight ambulances.
As the DPS helicopter moves towards the playground, the camera swings back to the west entrance and the bus lane. A stretcher gurney seems to be going IN to a newly arrived ambulacne. (See the first video WP/TT/PP story) Another gurney seemingly is OUT of another folded low on the ground by the tail of a ambulace. The tail end of the #2 bus is still there but begins to leave.
DPS tactical from all the way up in Austin has arrived somehow at 12:58 (too late, they were always going to be too late for the kids) in the midst of the bungled evacuations. Somewhere before all this they sprint to the courtyard by the west door, choking the passage of anyone. News helicopter seems to capture some of it, as well as news cameras down at the front of the school, and still photogs, too. it looks to all of them like something important is happening. It isn't. Not there, and not with them.
Somewhere in here SWAT from San Antonio enters the mix. I'm very loose on that timing. They're hard to tell apart from DPS tactical or SRT or whatever they are called. Is it them that runs as a big squad? I'm unsure. Nor can I spot where BORTAC huddles up afterwards. I think they stay inside the building because we don't spot them outside, not at tthe west and not at the south. They didn't all stay on the bus they commandeered. DPS Crimson Elizondo did, but who else?
We know ambulances have crawled across peoples yards, criss-crossing like a post apocalypse freeway scene to get around abandoned cop cars blocking the roads. They start arriving all from one direction as the second bus behind BORTAC Express finally manages to scoot off from the front of the school.
There's some sort of "load and go, load and go" action here that we don't have much information about unless we extrapolate what child was wounded how and eliminate the trio of AJ, Noah and Mayah from them, possibly.
At least one medical helicopter manages to land, to no avail at some point. Everyone is racing somewhere in an ambulance. Xavier, to his demise somewhere west of Hondo. Mrs Mirales never leaves the ambulance at the curb, as she desperately attended to possibly at near-gunpoint after UPC cops and attending EMTs have seemingly furiously pumped what little blood she had left onto the sidewalk, because her heart stopped from the traumatic way she was dragged from the room, seemingly and of course her multiple gunshot wounds from an AR-15. The "load and go" kids must also include the teacher from 111, who has first been placed in a cop car, or attempted- he didnt fit - and then onto the tailgate/ lift gate of a fire department truck? Possibly the one in the funeral home lot, which must have freaked the crowd out to witness, then finally into one of the "maze runner" arriving ambulances.
Again, I refer us all to the WP/TT/PP animation for clues to that. Somehow, "load and go" period ends. When? When the ambulances stop moving, whenever that is.
And then, finally, Rangers lock the scene down, even closing the gate to the west door. It's now a crime scene and they are in charge of the investigation. The Justice of the Peace, acting as coroner is enroute to pronounce the less than 18? bodies as dead. Unsure on the math here. Three left the classroom with a pulse who died. 21 died. (plus the shooter, #22). One body was locked in an ambulance. How many left in the classrooms when the rangers lock it down? 22 minus three who died and one who was improperly removed and locked in a (much needed) ambulance. 18 bodies including the shooters, is that right?
Eventually each is designated a letter of the alphabet and DNA sampled on site so the pieces of children and teachers can be sorted and reassembled, or at least distributed to the funeral homes in the right batches. Several are said to be more or less headless. On one, a pair of Green converse with a little heart-shaped sharpie drawn on the toe, that aids in identifaction.
Parents have been told to go to the civic center. Many are going to race to every hospital they can think of, including San Antonio instead. Mothers, fathers and grandparent must all separate to cover more ground, adding to the panic and desperation. Some have been told to go to the high school, but the high school gets some sort of possible gun threat? Again, NO ONE IS IN CHARGE.
On the curb near the front of the school sits Lexi's Rubio's mother and deputy father, utterly bereft. He's been kept out of the classroom but seems to have been told the definite news their child is not coming out. Curious news crews videotape and photograph them in their grief, until the mother of one parent seemingly arrives to join them. Eventually, they thread their way onto the campus to get away from the news anchors assembled by the school sign in the same intersection where Officer Hill had parked to witness Coronado's "wild ride" at 11:31 or so. 82 minutes and then some have passed, as have at least 19 souls? by now, some still fighting for life, the shooter one among the many dead, yet separate in category only. The blood of all spreads to mingle in the footprints and pools of fluids on the floors the gruesome CSI process begins in earnest.
In the queue on the video projector's mechanism, "Lilo and Stitch" awaits the Disney happy ending. Elvis won't be singing the finale BURNING LOVE today. Elvis has left the building. Elvis is deader than Elvis. And the children are going to meet him in Heaven, if you believe what the King does and loved to sing about. "Farther along, we'll understand it./ Farther along, we'll understand why."
