Ahsoka: We're Not Killing Any Of Those Men

Holy shit, Loki just made every other marvel film and TV canon to the now Marvel Cinematic Multiverse. We can have the Fox X-Men show up In the MCU and have it be canon without having to retcon either timeline.

So you want to become a Canadian, Eh?

Now that Trump is your President, many of you are thinking about moving to Canada. Well I say welcome abroad (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp), but first there are some things you need to know first before you become a Canadian Citizen.

1) you must be over eighteen years old

2) You must be able to both speak and write in either French or English

3) Have lived in Canada as a permanent Resident for the 4 out of 6 years before you apply

4) be physically present in Canada for 183 days or more during each of those four years.

5) filled your taxes for at least four years since the past six years as well as pay any income tax that you might owe.

6) Apply for citizenship within Canada.

You may not become a citizen if you have an inadequate knowledge in either French or English, nor can you become one if are or have recently been in Prison. Additionally, for anyone under the age of eighteen, your legal guardian(s) must apply for you and they have to be either a Canadian citizen or applying to become one themselves. However, if you are a minor, you do not need to meet the residency requirements. Finally, if you are or have been part of the Canadian Armed Forces, you may be eligible for a fast-track application process.

Note: all of the above info was gathered from here http://settlement.org/ontario/immigration-citizenship/citizenship/apply-for-canadian-citizenship/how-do-i-apply-for-canadian-citizenship/

Now the first step to becoming a Canadian is that you need to be a Permanent Resident. A Permanent Resident is someone who has been given permanent Residence Status by the Canadian government. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomers/about-pr.asp

Additionally, the website: “Move to Canada -15 miles http://15miles.info/move-to-canada/“ can help you see your chances of becoming a permanent resident. If you have an advanced degree, 2 or more years of professional experience, and $12,000 ($9000 USD) or more in savings, you can probably immigrate to Canada within a year. If you want a more detailed answer, take their quiz and see how good your chances are.

Now the final step to become a Canadian citizen is the Citizenship Test: a written and oral test where you’ll be asked about

           the rights, freedoms and responsibilities of Canadian citizens,

           Canada’s democracy and ways to take part in Canadian society,

           Canadian political and military history (including the political system, monarchy and branches of government),

           Canadian social and cultural history and symbols, and

           Canadian physical and political geography.        

Additionally, this test will also be used to see if you have adequate knowledge in either English or French. For more info on the citizenship test see here  http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/cit-test.asp

So to answer the question you may all be wondering, no you can’t just move to Canada because you dislike Trump. You need to actually be prepared and have a plan if you want to live in Canada.

I understand that many of you are scared, myself included since we rely heavily on trading with the US, and that you may be wanting to move to Canada, but remember this.

Trump isn’t the first, nor will he be the last. There have always been idiotic and terrible leaders throughout every nation in history. Yet despite this, many nations are still standing. Why? Because their citizens never gave up. They still believed in their country, it’s people and wished it to be the best it can be, and they fought or still are fighting for that dream.

If you are afraid of living in America either due to your sexuality, religion or ethnicity, etc, and wish to move somewhere safer, I totally understand. And you want to become a Canadian, I welcome you open arms, but I beg of you. Do not give into nihilism and abandon your country. Discrimination has and always existed. It may not always be obvious at times, but every country has its xenophobes of various degrees. Canada is no exception as shocking as that might be.

So keep on fighting for what you believe in. Even if the entire nation is telling you to move, you must stand firm like a tree and say “no, you move”.

Remember Trump isn’t America. Nor are the republicans, Hilary, the Democrats, Obama or any other politician or political party. You are America, just as we are Canada.

You are the heart and soul of America. And if you truly believe in your country, you will make damn sure that both are as bright and vibrant as they can be.

Avengers endgame spoilers for cap, Bucky, Sam and thor.

For anyone who hasn't seen Endgame,turn back now because I'm going to spoil a lot of stuff concerning characters and where I think they'll go from here.

Captain America: so as to why Cap decided to go back in time and marry Peggy. One, travelling back to 1970 and seeing her again. Two, the final fight with all the avengers made him realize that even if he were ever killed, they'll still be heroes so that's why he decided to go back because unlike before, he's not needed.

Now as to why Cap chose Sam over Bucky. To the outside world, a lot of people still view Bucky as this cold blooded killer instead of thr victim he really is. While unfortunate, the ugly truth is that a lot of people simply wouldn't trust Cap Bucky. Though I think it's best that Steve didn't give the mantle to Bucky. Remember, Bucky has been a slave to Hydra for decades now and only recently is he a free man. He's still trying to figure out who he is so Cap forcing the mantle down on him when his feet aren't on the ground wouldn't be fair to him. Finally, Bucky is a soldier not a leader. He's always in the fight but he's never the one to lead it.

As for Falcon, him helping Cap take down Hydra has probably earned him a few respect points along with having a military background as well. Additionally, his lighter and more social personality compared to Bucky is more suited for the role of the role of Captain America. I'd argue that the symbol of captain America is just as important if not more so than captain America himself.

Now I do think cap and Bucky probably discussed it with each other and Bucky does agree and respect Steve's choice.

Thor: man, seeing Thor like that was really damn depressing though it makes sense when you stop to think about it. He lost his mom, his brother (twice), his dad, his home, a large chunk of his people and blames himself for the snap. He locks himself away because in his eyes he views himself just as responsible for all those deaths as Thanos is. Thanos is so triggering to him because it reminds him of his greatest failure. No wonder Cap let himself go.

As for Thor post endgame well it's gonna be interesting seeing him in Asgardiand of the Galaxy especially when he's more powerful than all of them combined. While I was kind of hoping Thor would stay King it makes sense as to why he joined the guardians instead because he's more of a hero/adventurer than a king.

I am so salty about what they did to my boy Peter Maximoff. Ralph Bohner? Fuck of with that shit. He's a not Bohner, you're the Bohner, Marvel Studios.

An Honest Review of Underswap

Ever since Undertale started gaining traction- which was like a few hours after its release -the fandom has been turning out AUs left and right: some good, some meh, and some just plain awful.

Somehow Underswap fits under all three categories. Now don’t get me wrong, Underswap is an interesting idea when done right, but very little people seem to be able to. Now I’m sure everyone knows what the basics of Underswap is, everyone swaps roles and personality. Now the first is interesting, but once you introduce the second element, Underswap loses all originality.

Lets use Sans and Papyrus for example here. If you have them swap roles, not only do you have to think how they’re canon self would act, but also how and why they ended up in that place along with how it would effect them. However, when you have them swap personalities as well, it loses all interest.

Instead of the question being how would Sans act in Papyrus’s role, it’s now how Sans would act in Papyrus’s role if he also had his personality too. Well, exactly like Papyrus would.

See what I mean? You won’t be adding anything by having Underswap being both a role and personality swap. All you’re doing is creating a re skin of Undertale. Now not everyone does this and there are some good underswap stories and comics such as the ASK!MTTBlook blog that I really like mainly due to how they portray their characters and even though it isn’t exactly Underswap, but it has the same general idea, Storyshift. I’m not talking about the good ones though, I’m talking about the most popular and bland version of Underswap.

The one where people think by having US!Sans eat tacos and say myeh heh heh instead is somehow original. Why tacos? Why not hot dogs?

Anyways, there’s my rant, I have a few other problems with Underswap, but pretty much it all ties back to that idea. Well peace out

A conversation between Prosecutor!Undyne and Mettaton EX

The Difference between Timelines and Alternate Universes

I’ve been hearing these words timelines and AUs being thrown around and use interchangeably as if they are one and the same when that’s anything further from the truth. Which is why my pretentious ass is gonna try to explain the difference a timeline and an Alternate Universe as well as how to tell the difference.

First off, we have to mention that Undertale clearly possesses a multiverse -an Underverse if you will- in which every Universe resides in and within each universe is a timeline. Unlike the multiverse though, which can contain an infinite number of alternate universes, a universe may only have one timeline active at a once. The only way for a new timeline to become active is through reloading or resetting back to a previous point in time. Meanwhile, a new universe is always created due to the actions of transdimensional beings who reside outside of the Under-verse (aka: us). It is impossible for anyone that resides within the Under-verse to create a new universe by themselves without the help of a transdimensional being. At best, they can create new timelines, but that’s it.

So since we establish the basics, let’s get down to the key difference. Timelines are essentially the variables of a universe. They can be radically different from one another, but so long as they are a possibility within a universe, they can exist. For example: Chara never falling into the underground, Asriel and Chara both surviving, or the war never occurring in the first place. While the results may sometimes be radically different from another, they are all possible.

As for alternate universes, they are essentially the non-possibilities of a universe, no matter what, it is physically impossible for them to exist as a timeline in Undertale. Generally, Anything that operates under different mechanics and universal laws then Undertale or radically alters or swaps the souls of characters counts as an AU. Note: just because characters have a different personality than in canon, that does not always mean their soul: IE, their subconscious, inner self, or whatever, has been altered as well.

For example, let’s say Alphys decides to build a body for Napstablook alongside Mettaton as well. This event will effect and alter their personalities from that point forth, but who they are inside remains the same, plus that action is a possibility so it would count as being an alternate timeline.

If it was something like Sans always had the personality of Papyrus, vice-verse, or whatever. So long as they possess zero or barely any similarities to their Undertale self, then they exist within an alternate universe. Like if Monster Kid now acts exactly like Joseph Stalin or if Toriel acts like a crazy Florida lady that hates children, then that change would count it as an AU.

Now I mentioned before how only one timeline can be active in a universe at a timeline. Which may have some of you thinking “Doesn’t that mean all the different fanworks of Undertale are alternate Universes then even if the change is rather minor?”

Just because only one timeline can be running at once, it doesn’t mean that other timelines can’t exist alongside it just in a sort of limbo mode. Take for example a race between twelve different horses. The people within the active timeline perceive horse #3 as the winner, while we can perceive any of the horses winning or none at all, we just have to choose the outcome we want to see and we’ll see it.

So no, not every fanwork is an alternate universe. Some are AUs and others timelines, which are which, you decide because I honestly don’t have the time to go through every single one because there are literally thousands. I’m just doing this because I find it fun applying logic and rules to a world with spaghetti loving Skeletons and Metrosexual ghost-bot David Bowie.

By the way, do you want a theory/view on souls or determination next?

Sometimes it feels like everyone around me is speaking in a secret language and I'm the only one who doesn't know it.

Undertale AU ideas

So we already got like Underfell, underwap, outerswap and PTAtale. Might as well add to the pile Slamtale: if you smell what the great papyrus is cooking Jamtale: get dunked on *slams Chara's head into the basket* Underweed: like, do you want to have a bad time I guess Jerrytale: everyone is Jerry
