Wonder started the campaign for Martin Luther King Jr. The Legacy of Stevie Wonder’s ‘Happy Birthday’ Creating a message of unity, and similarities between all of us was a key in turning this song into the powerhouse moment it ended up being. His ability to conceive that many people did not want to talk about social rights issues or acknowledge the rift in the United States at the time was spot on. The genius of Stevie Wonder is in the method in which he left a powerful note of activism layered beneath a song millions would use on their birthday for decades to come. Helado Negro is undoubtedly on point with his analysis. People get fed up with oppression and I think protest music can be fantastical and lead people to rethink, reposition and organize themselves.” “I think just because it’s a protest song it doesn’t have to have some sort of dogma attached, it can be more useful as a way to give people the energy to get out there and be heard. It’s an amazing way to make a song enlightening and fill you up with a positive feeling.” Wonderland (Los Angeles, California): Stevie Wonder.ĭo you have a story idea for us?

The moment was not lost on me that we have a song to sing in a restaurant full of all types of people because of King’s sacrifices. One of my friends shouted, “Wait! We are going to sing OUR song!” She began to belt out the chorus line of Stevie Wonder’s song, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!” We all joined in clapping, rocking, and rejoicing in celebration of our friend as others looked on. When they brought out the customary dessert, the waiter began to sing the traditional birthday song. Recently, I was out with close friends celebrating a birthday at a restaurant. ![]() With gratitude, I celebrated MLK’s birth, jumping, dancing, and singing in my bedroom on that hot day in June. “Yes,” I thought, “he is worthy to be celebrated,” as I sat comfortably in my middle-class home, safe and secure knowing my worth and value to the society and culture my people built, despite all they endured. Is love and unity to all God's children 5 4 I sang out with pride, “Happy Birthday to ya!” As the music played on, I listened intently as Wonder preached: I knew that he started his nonviolent end to segregation campaign in my birthplace of Albany, Georgia, leading up to the successful Birmingham Campaign. I read each word on the album jacket and began singing along with it, becoming more and more excited about all that I knew about Martin Luther King Jr. It was such a simple song delivered in a way that only Stevie Wonder could.

![]() (Renpy) : Honoka breasts expand a couple of times. Futhermore, there's an ending where the main character gets even bigger (you have to go full corruption) (Description updated thanks to tyuiasdf's input). Good Girl Gone Bad (Renpy) : If you fall to the dark side you'll end up getting a pair of implants. Dungeon Slaves (RPGM) : Potions cause major BE, but there's quite a bit of bestiality and it gets old quick, for me at least. Divine Adventure (Renpy) : Later in the game, Vados can temporarily increase her breast size when doing paizuris. Defenestration (RPGM) : In this case, it's a mix of the first three issues, but I guess if you like that type of game, it's really good quality. Later in the game you get the chance to buy a scroll that temporarily increases Korra's breast size wantonly for the "Milk" scene. Cummy Bender (Unity) : Another promising new project. Cracking the Second Strain (Unreal Engine) : Really meh game, the zombie stuff doesn't convince me too much, moderate difficulty. Corruption of Champions II (?) : I don't really get the appeal of this game, but everyone seems to enjoy it, so I include it. Contamination: Corrupting Queens Body and Soul (RPGM) : Short game, quite easy to get some scenes, maybe give it a try, could have made it into the list to be fair. Cloud 10(HTML) : TiT 2.0, too complex, too long. (Thanks to tyuiasdffor reminding me of the existance of this game) ![]() It's literally 3 minutes long, but maybe you like it. Career in Transformation (Renpy) : Abandoned Renpy game with a single scene. Bound by Lust (Renpy) : Very little BE, but it's a really easy game, and quite good. Really easy "hands-on" game, huge breasts. Bimbo High (Renpy) : There's just one instance of a girl getting a massive surgery and you get to pick her size. BE Witches (exe) : One of the games I should revisit now they've enabled the cheat menu, honestly, I didn't get to the BE part on the first try. Autumn Boulevard (RPGM) : As almost all RPGM games, too long. Finally, both Gwen and Debra have FMG and BE when entering the alpha-ray machine (Description updated thanks to EpicLust's input). Nancy has two small scenes where her breasts become bigger after wearing the Captain Marvel costume. Furthermore, Cyrl's harem sex scene includes the choice of having her breast enlarged or not. Apocalypse (Renpy) : One girl increases her breast size when she gets excited. Everyone should keep an eye out for this project, it's very promising and could make the Renpy list in the future. Alchimia (Renpy) : It's still early in its development, and there is only one BE scene, but it's a good one (just progress through the main story). Adventure High (Flash) : It includes some transformations of certain companions via hypnosis. A New Dawn (RPGM) : I think I should revisit this title, but it was a bit too dragged out for the amount of transformation it offered. Too slow/grindy/complex/little BE for my taste, but still worth investigating (Sorry if I'm too harsh with them!): Additionally, if I don't have a clue, I'll just write for "I don't know" (please fill these in the thread), and if it fits none of the above, it'll state for "Other". _ Pills, chemicals or science base stuff. I've assigned the tiers based on a subjective and personal basis, basically it's my personal recommendation of the ones I've enjoyed the most.Īs suggested by tyuiasdf, the list also classifies the source of expansion into several categories, following the acronym InMPSu: All the games I've written in their respective game categories I consider to be at least a B (or mid-C for the HTML ones) so at least they are somewhat enjoyable in some facet of the game. Some of the HTML games might be text based though.Īs you will see, my preferences skew a lot towards easy games, that's why I include the first section, in case anyone wants to work hard for their fetish. I've tried to not include games -focused- on sissification/gender-changing/futa in the main list (which happens to be a fair bit of games), nor have I included games that left me too underwhelmed, or were graphically horrible. Breast expansion is by far my prefered fetish, and I want to share it with my fellow perverts. This list includes the knowledge I've managed to gather in the last 2 years of masturbatory practices. The following list archives all of the games I've played that are related to Breast Expansion, or at least the ones I've recalled and/or found in F95zone and TFGames. I'm tired of having to scour the depths of the internet to find games of my persuasion, so I seek to help everyone with this post. First of all, I shall shout-out Mercury12, R P, Senguj, Sniper69 and everyone involved in the following thread, because they have inspired me to create this post. 3/17/2024 0 Comments Enneagram type 2 wing 3![]() Like a big bear: Snuggly towards their own kind, but still equipped with claws that they are more than willing to put to use when necessary.ĭepending on how strong their Nine wing is, these Eights are more oriented towards people than towards experience, as it happens with a Seven wing. They become more measured, cooperative and often more family-oriented. As a wing to the Eight type however, the Nine type mostly has a soothing effect on the aggressive and intense appearance of Eights. If you put Eights and Nines next to each other, they look almost like complete opposites: the assertive, strong-willed, confrontational Eights on the one side, the quiet, peace-loving, conflict-avoiding Nines on the other. With a kind of double dose of independence and the Sevens’ joy in risk taking, these Eights often thrive in entrepreneurial settings where they can combine their natural leadership skills with their strong visions. So I guess that makes for – pardon the pun –, pretty powerful experiences Eights with a Seven wing are going for. The key motivation of Eights is acquiring, maintaining and projecting power, while the main interest of Sevens is incorporating new experiences into their life. “Combine the Eight with the Seven’s outgoing, fun and impulsive personality, and you get quite the supernova of energy that likes to enjoy life to the fullest.” That big chunk of energy and assertiveness you associate with Eights? Combine that with an outgoing, fun and impulsive personality, and you get quite the supernova of energy that leaves behind lots of its guarded wariness in order to enjoy life to the fullest. ![]() The main thing you notice about Eights with a Seven wing is that they are much more extroverted than their counterparts with a Nine wing. 3/16/2024 0 Comments Chimera ant tattoo![]() By the looks of it, he was disqualified for not gathering 6 points in time. Karmic Death: In the 2011 anime, he's left bound and gagged during the island portion.Jerkass: He makes no bones that he's a sadistic dickhead because he gets off on it, and actively tries to be The Load when he's forced to succeed, tormenting people by doing whatever he can to screw them over, being totally unhelpful unless forced to cooperate, and giving them hell all the way down to waving his smelly, holey socks in their face.In-Series Nickname: The Rookie Crusher.Hate Sink: With him crushing participants of the Hunter exams for no other reason than to see them fail and does it with absolutely sadistic glee, it is very clear the audience are not supposed to like him.Fat Bastard: A short, fat guy who tries to fail the other contestants out of his sadism.False Friend: He pretends to be friendly to rookies, but highly enjoys sabotaging them and making them fail. ![]() Every Year They Fizzle Out: He doesn't really care about passing the exam, he failed 36 times.He may be a prick, but he just wants to cause rookies to fail, not murder them. Even Evil Has Standards: When Killua comes back to him for another of his laxative spiked juice, he's actually worried that it could kill him via dehydration since the drugs are suppose to work for three whole days.Dirty Coward: When the fight is fair, you can expect Tonpa to get out of dodge if he has no dirty tricks left to pull.Cover Innocent Eyes and Ears: In the 1999 version, he covers the eyes of Gon while Leorio is checking if Leroute is actually a woman or not.This implies that he could pass if he actually cared. Brilliant, but Lazy: Despite having more interest in screwing over rookies rather than actually passing himself, Tonpa actually makes it quite far into the exam.Nicolas has a nervous breakdown, Kurapika sees the Phantom Troupe murder his clan, and Leorio sees the skeleton of his deceased friend trying to goad him into suicide. Adaptational Villainy: While he's still an utter Jerkass in the manga and 2011 anime, in the 1999 anime he takes it a step further and passes the Moral Event Horizon in his first appearance instead of trying to give Gon and friends spiked drinks, he lures Leorio to a path covered in sap that makes the victim hallucinate and see their worst nightmares.He forgoes trying to give laxative-spiked drinks to any of the other hunters and instead plays a longer game of building his kindly persona up and befriending Leorio and the others so that their guard is completely down at the opportune moment where he can betray and sabotage them. Adaptational Intelligence: Tonpa in the 1999 anime is notably more competent, more patient, and better at keeping his facade up than in the manga and 2011 anime.To say this took the wind out of his gloating is an understatement. He gloats to the heroes about purposefully trying to stymie them to make them fail until Killua points out if he hadn't given up as fast as he had, his opponent would've crushed his larynx and tortured him for 70 hours to prevent all of them from passing, thus he inadvertently saved himself and pretty much helped the heroes anyway. He looks to display that he has some fighting skills.and quickly gives up. Achievements in Ignorance: During the Trick Tower section, he's pitted against Bendot in a fight to the death.He's examinee #16 in the 287th Hunter Exam. A veteran examinee known as the "Rookie Crusher", he participates in the exam just to crush newbies' ambitions. 3/16/2024 0 Comments Motar for cinder block home depot![]() Here’s how to do the buttering: Stand the block upright on one end. Do this by adding mortar to the flanges-the edges that jut out from the block’s body. While for the corner blocks you applied mortar only to the footing, you’ll need to “butter” one end of each of the middle blocks to adhere it to the adjacent block. ![]() With a block set at each corner, your next step is to fill in the middle. Now, run a mason’s string between the two blocks to help you maintain uniform alignment as you add the rest of the course. Check its level and alignment, then trim away the excess mortar. ![]() Next, walk on over to the opposite end of the planned wall and, using the same technique as before, set down another corner block. Once you’re satisfied, trim and remove excess mortar. Because the corner block defines the vertical and horizontal level for succeeding blocks in the course, do take the time to double-check that the first block is both level and properly aligned. Simply grab each by the sides and, looking down through the hollow cores, set the block in position. Generally speaking, though, there’s no need to be gentle or painstaking when handling cinder blocks. Don’t let the block slide out of place, as that could displace the mortar and upset the joint. Be careful to create a 3/8-inch mortar joint on its underside. Press the first block, a corner block, into the mortar. Start at one end of the chalk outline you snapped in Step 1. Now that you’ve applied the mortar bed to the footing, move on to laying down the first course of cinder blocks. Finally, use your trowel to run a V-shaped furrow down the center of the bed of mortar when you set the blocks onto the mortar, this furrow helps distribute the mortar evenly, forcing it to the edges of the blocks. Once the mortar is ready-and once you’ve dampened the surface of the footing-lay down a 1-inch bed of mortar along the chalk lines you snapped in Step 1. ![]() Continue mixing until you obtain a consistency that can be easily troweled. After adding both ingredients to a wheelbarrow or mixing bin, mix them using either a mixing hoe or an electric drill with a paddle-type mixing attachment. There are only two ingredients-mortar mix and water the trick is to strike the appropriate ratio between the two. In preparing the mortar, pay close attention to the instructions printed on the package. Forgiving to those who are not experts in masonry projects, the QUIKRETE® preblended mix remains workable for a long period of time, with no sacrifice of the high-bond strength that yields a successful project. For cinder-block walls (and brick walls too), choose QUIKRETE® Mason Mix Type S. Then, once you have removed the blocks from the footing, you are ready to begin in earnest. Once you are satisfied with the dry fit of your base run, snap a chalk line on either side of the blocks to serve as a reference. A 3/8-inch-thick plywood scrap can help you make each gap precise and uniform. As a result, as you’re figuring out the number of blocks you’ll need for the base course, it’s essential to accommodate for the space to be filled in with mortar. So, though the standard block may be billed as 8″ x 8″ x 16″, it actually measures 7-5/8″ x 7-5/8″ x 15-5/8″. You may already know that cinder blocks are sold in nominal dimensions that assume the presence of, and take into account, a 3/8-inch mortar joint. These gaps are stand-ins for the 3/8-inch mortar joints that will appear in the finished wall (not only between each block, but also between each course). As you place the blocks, remember to leave a 3/8-inch gap between each one. The goal here is simple: You’re determining the number of blocks necessary for the desired wall size. Start by simply laying out the cinder blocks for the first course of your wall. If you need help understanding the relevant building codes in your municipality, be sure to contact a contractor, inspector, or code enforcement specialist. As there are varying definitions of what constitutes a building code-compliant footing, the following instructions assume that an inspection-ready foundation already exists. But no matter your skill level or experience, these step-by-step instructions from QUIKRETE® can help you transform a pile of cinder blocks into an attractive, lasting element of your hardscape.īefore reading any further, however, it’s critical to note that every block wall, structural or not, requires a solid footing. Of all the skills involved, working with mortar may be the most challenging, as doing so calls for some technique and finesse. That said, with careful planning the process can be straightforward, and the project is certainly within reach-provided you have the strength to lift and place 30-pound cinder blocks. If the average do-it-yourself project takes only part of a day and minimal heavy lifting, then, well, this isn’t your average job. 3/16/2024 0 Comments Free online solitaire spider![]() The game involves arranging a shuffled deck of cards into a specified order or tableau, no matter the variation.

The game starts with ten tableau piles, with the first four having six cards each and the remaining six having five cards each, all arranged in a specific pattern. The goal of the game is to move all the cards to eight foundation piles, four of which are based on suit and in ascending order (Ace to King) and the other four are based on suit and in descending order (King to Ace). Spider Solitaire is a popular single player card game that is played with two decks of cards (104 cards total). ![]() A full descending suit pack must be made on the tableau, and then that pack will move to the first empty foundation pile. ![]() Cards cannot be moved to foundation piles directly.Ten foundation piles that must be filled by full descending suits.For example, a 9 8 7 pack may move to a pile with 10, as long as they are all the same suit. Only packs of cards that are of the same suit can be moved as a set. Packs of cards can also be moved between piles if they continue a descending order from the fully visible face up card on the pile they are moving to.For example, a 9 can be placed on top of a pile that has a 10 card face up.

There is only one full pass through the stock.Can only be dealt if all piles in tableau have cards in them.The game is won once all cards are in the foundation. Once a full sequence of ranks with the same suit is built, it automatically moves to the foundation (cards cannot be placed on the foundation individually). Sort cards on the tableau so they are in descending order, from King to Ace. 3/16/2024 0 Comments Modern sonic dash engine![]() They are similar in appearance to their Sonic Forces counterparts, and are used in a similar fashion, though vertically instead of horizontally. If they explode while the player is still on them, they will be damaged and fall, failing the stage.īomb Blocks reappear while on Ouranos Island, but only during The Final Horizon scenario. When touched, a Bomb Block will begin to detonate, and the player must be quick about getting away from them to avoid being damaged.īomb Blocks appear in the stages Bomb Block 1 and Bomb Block 2, where they are used as pathways positioned above bottomless pits for the player to run along.

In Cyber Space stages though, their design is closely the same as seen previously in Sonic Forces.Bomb Blocks are designed similarly to bombs, featuring a red and black color scheme. In this game, Dash Rails in Open Zone area received altered variation of their current design of purple engine-shaped devices with cyan details. In Sonic Frontiers, the Dash Rail appears as a gameplay gimmick in both Open Zone areas and Cyber Space stages. In this game, they feature their modern design. In Sonic Forces, the Dash Rails returned as a gimmick exclusive to the stages for Modern Sonic, the Avatar, and the Tag gameplay mechanic. ![]() ![]() In this game, they only have two engines per row and black wheel rods.

In terms of appearance, the Dash Rails have two basic designs. However, Dash Rails can only launch the playable characters in one direction. As soon as the playable character grinds into a Dash Rail, they will automatically initiate a sliding dash away from the Dash Rail at the playable character's maximum grinding speed. However, instead of increasing their user's running speed, they increase their grinding speed. Like the Dash Panels, the Dash Rails' primary function is to send the playable character forward with a burst of speed. The Dash Rail is a variant of the Dash Panel which is only found on Grind Rails. |
