One is ready for a rematch!

Today is october 7th officially marking 365 days, 1 year, of the most well recorded genocide in history; of an occupation of a people which has been ongoing for 76 years. An entire year of constant israeli bombardment. Hundreds of thousands killed and missing. All the while, the people with the most power to stop the genocide continue to support and defend the politicians carrying out the slaughter.

Yet, it is also a year since the Palestinian resistance definitively proved to the world that israel is not only not the all-knowing state entity many believed nor that they were invincible or undefeatable. Over the course of the year, the resistance and its allies in Lebanon and Yemen have handed out defeats to not just israel but the west lead by the united states as well proving that those institutions and militaries are not invincible.

In israel itself, tens of thousands of bsuinesses are closing or have closed; its ports are under blockade; the settlers are fighting amongst themselves or leaving; it is a settler colony beginning to buckle under the simultaneousforces of its internal contradictions and of the Palestinian resistance. No doubt the struggle for liberation and against settler colonialism will continue until all the contradictions are resolved just as it were it rhodesia and south africa.

May we see a free Palestine in our lifetimes.

✩ ‧₊˚ ⌞ OVERVIEW OF ELATION!SAMPO ⌝

elation!sampo m.list

— what the stars reveal: general analysis, summary

— word count: under 1k

— overview: a general explanation of how i use elation!sampo, what i mean by it, and what theories it includes

☆━━━━━ ⋆⁺｡˚⋆˙‧₊☾ ◯ ☽₊‧˙⋆˚｡⁺⋆ ━━━━━━☆

✩ ‧₊˚ ⌞ WHAT IS ELATION!SAMPO? ⌝

I use “Elation!Sampo” as an umbrella term to account for both Aha!Sampo and Emanator!Sampo theories, as well as any adjacent theories and possible combinations of the two. Since a lot of my ideas include major overlap between “Aha” as the Aeon of Elation and “Emanators” as enforcers of that Aeon’s will, I figured it would be helpful to have a specific term for “a version of Sampo whose identity closely intertwines with the Elation.” (Alternatively, “a Sampo who operates in the higher echelon of the Elation.”)

This way, I can account for the “grey area” between states of consciousness without having to overburden my writing with long definitions!

✩ ‧₊˚ ⌞ THEORIES ⌝

Since Elation!Sampo is an umbrella term, it can include a multitude of different theories. Beyond strictly “Sampo is Aha” and “Sampo is an Emanator” theories, it addresses the space between the two, like dual/split/separate consciousness, Sampo as a creation of Aha, former Aeon theories, and the like.

✩ ‧₊˚ ⌞ THE BIG STUFF (EVIDENCE) ⌝

Before I start my main analysis, I figured I’d give a short and sweet rundown of Elation!Sampo’s biggest clues:

— His bomb burst (Surprise Present) connects to Aha’s “surprise” bombing of the Express that happened before the events of the main story.

— His E2, “Infectious Enthusiasm,” is the exact same wording used in Aha’s introduction in the Simulated Universe.

— Both Sampo and Aha refer to themselves in third person. As of 2.2, Sampo makes nearly thirty third-person references to himself (I will make a later post detailing every time this occurs).

— Sampo refers to himself as an “old timer” in his conversation with Sparkle. While this could indicate a number of Elation!Sampo possibilities, it directly points to longevity, something that an immortal being would possess.

— In the dream bubble he shows us in Penacony (directly based on his Dreamscape), Sampo takes the form of a larger version of himself — something we’ve seen before with Phantylia’s transformation as an Emanator of Destruction.

— In the Astral Express’s dream bubble, we see Pom-Pom confront a faceless Aha. However, we the player don’t even hear Their voice, instead having to choose between voiceovers from different Crew members. Despite knowing for a fact They took a human appearance at this time, we don’t get any identifying features — perhaps because we’ve met Them already, and hearing or seeing Them would ruin the “surprise.”

— As of 2.2, Sampo is also the only early game character without a companion quest. Therefore, we never see him on the Express. A reason for this may be because he has an aversion to being seen or heard by Pom-Pom, who would be able to recognize him. While he may be getting a companion quest later on, the more time goes by without him having a quest, the more suspicious it becomes. After all, he’s the only “Belobog” character to not have one.

— Boothill…… What do you mean by that……?

There are many other, smaller clues littered throughout HSR, but these are the ones I always feel like screaming from the rooftops when this topic is brought up. Again, I’ll be going into the specifics in my analysis posts!

An ex-colleague of mine was complaining to me the other day about the ai problem in her students' papers, and I told her, "Just make your students hand-write them in class. Easy." She looked at me like I was insane and tried to explain how that would never work, but I just said,"That's how we did it for a thousand years. The invention of word processors doesn't erase all that."

To me it seems obvious. Readings are done out of class, handwritten essays are done within it. No more ai papers.

BLARGH Ampho doodles :p

Farewell, says the Fool

The dazzling curtains frame the departure of a fool, knowing he won't return, knowing that he's lying. Like nihility is a pit without a way to stop one's fall, so elation too is a trap for those, who believe to be aware of the rules of the game. The ones that laugh while the world is crumbling still stand on its foundation. So all he does is play his games and hum his tunes. Well the magic mill grinds when finished, to and fro the lid in rocking, grinds one measure at the day-break, grinds a measure fit for eating, grinds a second for the market, grinds a third one for the store-house
