It’s pretty simple really.

The big reveal is a huge wtf to my brain.

The Jubilee is a time of celebration for Catholics.

Traditionally, the Jubilee is held every 25 or 50 years and is a time to celebrate progress, free slaves (back when slaves were legal), forgive sins, etc etc.

In a great celebration, it makes sense to add a bit of pop culture flair. It’s also common to focus on children and youth outreach during the Jubilee and an anime character does a lot for that.

As for Luce herself. The Jubilee is also a time of great pilgrimages. It’s recommended to get your 'once in a lifetime’s visits to Vatican City (or other local holy sites: Santiago de Compostela, Fatima, Guadalupe). As such, Luce is modeled after the image of Pilgrims: Pilgrim staff, raincoat and dirty boots.

Her eyes are of the seashell, a Catholic sign for pilgrims. The seashells guide pilgrims to holy sites (if you’ve ever been on the Camino, all the next locations are marked with Seashells).

I’m expecting that Luce (thanks to the seashell eyes) will count as an official signpost for the next year of pilgrimages. She’s got incredibly well thought out symbology here.

Edit: I should also note that the raincoat has the 2025 Jubilee of Hope flag on it.

In case you didn’t get what that green spot on the raincoat was.

Pascal programmers are confused.

I’m fine with right wingers in my media honestly. I need to see their arguments anyway. I don’t want to be blind to what the far right is talking about.

But with that being said, the NYT has a lot of questionable stories. Beyond just right wing trash that I honestly am cool with.

I’m cancelling too but I’m not convinced on NYT or The guardian yet.

NYT strikes me as horribly inept at technology. Guardian is foreign (granted: UK is barely foreign lol but foreign anyway). I’d like to support an American paper if at all possible.

Guardian is good material though. It’s a top contender for now but I’m still looking for American papers. Surely something in this big country is worth supporting?

I mean, maybe I just support aftermath.site (aka: Kotaku before they quit/were replaced with the new writers). Video game news + politics is kinda what I’m interested in, but Aftermath.site (and Kotaku of old) didn’t even pretend to be neutral or facts based.

I guess the modern Internet means that I need to pick and choose a-la-carte.

Kung Fury still has the best spine joke.

Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 (which make up Volume 1) is repeatedly mentioned to be special and fundamental to the rest of the book series.

Well maybe if you started on book 1 chapter 1, you’d know how to read these books.

Why didn’t you start with the fundamentals book Volume 1?

You just jumped directly into complex combinatorics and then complained that the material was too difficult.

Like… Ninja Girl and Samurai Master?

Because that was awesome and I’d like more of it

At least in the USA, it is known as the Robber Barron period as the extremely wealthy monopolized everything.

I thought Patrick Boyle was a rap specialist music major?

Except Trump’s famous “They’re eating cats and dogs” line came from JD Vance. The craziest part of the debate wasn’t even Trump’s to fully own. JD Vance quite possibly is worse than Trump in regards to likability.

So if Trump drops out, who the fuck in the Republican field replaces him? Ron Desantis?

That Abdul situation completely surprised me. I can’t believe how bad a flub that was.

That’s what I’ll be meming moving forward. Not only did Trump admit to working with the Taliban, he made up fake people while doing so.

This needs to get memed and shared everyfucking where.

This is it people. We need to meme this debate. Otherwise, the fucking Republicans will forget this shit.

Thank fucking God that Kamala knew she had to be the first person to bring up Fentanyl in the debate. It was a bit round-about, but she got there and made sure to make the first strike early.

Its not quite a policy platform, but it counts. She’s recognized the importance of appearances on this very, very important matter.

Whether you agree with me or not, I think I can trust Kamala on it. I figured I should get back to you after I saw that moment in the debate early.

That’s not even a program and it certainly isn’t a link to the DNC platform either.

We don’t need catchy names.

Yes you do. This is fucking politics. Which is 99% about appearances. If you don’t look like you’re doing something, the sheep don’t notice.

You have the fucking stupid mindset that loses elections.

Morally, ethically, and pragmatically, it’s the right call to move to an actual solution.

Cool. Name the DNC’s solution.

I promise you its not as well named as “War on Drugs”.
