Welcome to Rave spits out more stuff for fandoms after they knock around in their head for too long!
Today's episode: Limited Life, 3rd life, and Solidarity/Jimmy's canary curse :D So! To begin with, this will be using the... Head cannon? Fannon? I dunno, the thing where the Watchers pushed Jim off.
Anyways, so! Jimmy was pushed off the Skynet by the watchers. Why? Because they wanted the canary curse to continue. Standard boing stuff. Now! The stuff that has been rattling around in my head: we pushed Jimmy. I know, I know, sounds ridiculous, but hear me out-
As told in the Evo SMP, we the viewers are the watchers. We are the people who watch what they do. As such, we the views, the "watchers" are the ones that caused some of the curses to rear their head. Because we believed in the curses (The canary curse, the curse that Grian will lose his loved ones, etc etc.) we caused them to become true. As such, we are the ones to blame for Jimmy's death. We pushed him to make sure he would be the first to fall, making him the one to be forever trapped in different walls.

Suddenly struck with a need to explain to you how boat pronouns work (I work in the marine industry).
When you're talking about the design of the boat, you say "it".
When the boat is still being built, your say "it".
When the boat is nearing completion, you can say "it" or "she".
When the boat is floating in the water you probably say "she", unless there is still a lot of work to be done (e.g. no engine yet) then you say "it".
When the boat is officially launched and operating, you say "she". If you continue to say "it" at this point you are not incorrect but suspiciously untraditional. You are not playing the game.
If you are referring to a boat you don't really know anything about you may say "it" ("there's a big boat, it's coming this way"). But if you know its name, it's probably "she" ("there's the Waverley, she's on her way to Greenock").
If you are talking about boats in general, you say "it" ("when a boat is hit by a wave it heels over")
If you speak about a boat in complimentary terms, it's "she" ("she's a grand boat"). If you are being disparaging it may be it, but not necessarily ("it's as ugly as sin", "she's a grotty old tub").
If she has a boy's name, she's still she. "Boy James", "King Edward", "Sir David Attenborough"? The pronoun is she.
If it's a dumb barge (no engine), you say it. But if it's a rowing boat (no engine), you say she.
I hope this has cleared things up so that you may not be in danger of misgendering floating objects.
Hey, you are not an embarrassment for not knowing how to do certain household chores/basic self-care. They do not come naturally to us. A lot of it takes practice! Maybe you had a neglectful guardian. Maybe you had one that was very coddling and never thought to teach you. Maybe you haven't lived in a place where these things were available to you or needed. Doesn't matter. It's okay to not know and far more common than you might realise.
That said, this website provides very simple instructions on how to do everyday tasks such as making your bed, using a washing machine, cooking different foods, washing dishes, taking a shower, etc. All you have to do is use the search bar to find the task you're struggling with, and it'll come up with what you need + other related how-to's:)
If you're having trouble navigating it, let me provide you with some examples:
How to clean dishes by hand
How to make your bed (with visual demonstrations of each step!)
How to fold clothes (with visual demonstrations of each step!)
How to take a shower & dry yourself off (also provides ways to shave beards, armpits, legs and genitals)
How to shave legs, armpits, beards, pubic areas, etc. (a more in-depth guide)
How to mop the floor
How to sweep the floor
How to swallow pills
How to make small talk
How to make eye contact in different situations (or how to avoid it while still looking natural)
It's also perfectly okay if these don't help or aren't appealing to you. Unfortunately, nothing helps everyone.
Man, I love scrolling on AO3 and finding a book with like... 400 words max, 1 chapter, get a wall of tags. Like an absolute bucket load of them just dumbed out on the table for someone to play a weird version of Scrabble with, and when you go reading through them you find the most absurd tag in there! Like "Rignle is fixing the spongus, as a treat." So you just sit there with the most... Wtf face ever because there's like no other context! I guess Ringle can fix the Spongus! I dunno!
OUGH!
Hype!
I'm so excited for this! So much potential, so much mystery! And, most hype of all, more people to come and enjoy this amazing group thanks to the TV show boosting fallout once more!
Thank you podcast team, from organizers to script writers to voice actors, for setting this all up and giving all us fallout nerds and giving us another opportunity to witness the tales from the commonwealth!
Excited to see your wonderful work once again!
We're almost done with the script. :) It's still being recorded and aired in June for charity.
Here's a little tease:
ANNOUNCER: Night has fallen upon the Commonwealth, and with it, a feathered and foggy mist rising up far out to sea, patiently crawling forth and spilling a fetid, sea-salted brine into the air as far inland as Sanctuary itself. The lights of Diamond City shine forth still in the gloom, and yet somehow dimmer than they always had been. The blanket born of the deep spilled upon the old-world ruins, like a silent wave of bone chilling cold, and whispered foreboding. On the northern shore, a sweeping halo of penetrating light sweeps across harbor and horizon, blinking as it moves past a figure high atop Kingsport Light. Tattered coat tails billowing, still darkly stained, Detective Nick Valentine drags on his cigarette, sparking servos dribbling fluid down his shirtsleeves. He looks down at the twisted body below on the shattered wooden dock, shadowed in darkness and yet that face…THAT FACE…still a twisted mask of hatred, pale white, seeming as it were floating in the swirling mists.
