A Presidential Affair (Web Version)
(you folks don't actually get A Presidential Affair)

So… this is going to be a bit of a weird one. Unfortunately, you fine folks weren’t on the email when this got sent out. So you all aren’t getting a main story.
A Presidential Affair
Here’s the starting lines of the fanfic, but you don’t get a link to the full thing. Sorry!
Anticipation. The air was full of it. Hundreds, maybe even tens, of folks had gathered in The Gallery in eager excitement. Tonight, the AMS would crown their new president.

Really Disappointing Senate Joke Tweets
So it turns out that normies aren’t allowed in Senate meetings and have to watch on Facebook Live of all places. Oops I didn’t know that. Anyways I was very briefly within touching distance of President Kevin Bacon so that’s kinda cool.
I did, in fact get kicked out by a security guard. Maybe I shouldn't have stopped reading the website after one sentence (but also not to be pedantic but to me "may" implies "has the option to" not "this is the only option" so like am I really in the wrong chat?)

New Wall Decor Just Dropped
Y’all I’ve got Elena’s face on my wall (still the number one link by unique clicks). We stay winning. Thanks for signing it Elena you’re the best :D.
I do wonder whether or not it would be funny to continue picking people subscribed to this newsletter to get signed stuff from
(also Elena “Go Mad Ruin Yourself Commit Crimes” absolutely slays and is now on my character playlist for one of the TTRPG campaigns I’m in. It’s like a million percent the song that plays over her backstory in the film adaptation. If I were 50% better at drawing four armed alien humanoids, I’d be trying to story board something lmao)
To Sam Low
We should be friends Sam :). Beyond surreal internet correspondence. If you want. You know how to contact me I’m down to clown.
Also your Not a Ubyssey Humour Article on Mastodon was very funny.
From the Web
Open letter receives over 200 faculty signatures opposing new draft of academic freedom policy (The Ubyssey). You know, this is a great time for academic freedom. Some have even said the best most academically free times ever. looks southward.
Vancouver Quadra candidates discuss housing, overdose crises at federal election debate (The Ubyssey). Who doesn’t love a candidates debate? Let me tell you the way some of these candidates shook my hand before I even knew what was happening was wild. One moment I’m typing on my computer the next some man is having skin-to-skin contact with me.
Conservatives are limiting media access to Poilievre. Is it helping or hurting him? (CBC). Pretty silly how the Conservative candidate didn’t show up to the AMS debate or respond to The Ubyssey’s request for an interview.
Designing a logo for Carouse, Carouse! (Explorer’s Design). You know, I can manage making a passable a logo or some decent print layout, but reading about the process of someone who actually knows what they’re doing is incredibly cool. And makes it so incredibly clear that Graphic Design Is My Passion.
The Practical FX Approach in Until Dawn (ponysmasher on YouTube). I don’t really do film stuff, but it’s very cool and creatively inspiring to learn about the process for composing the shots to make the practical effects work.

That’s All!
A bit of a lighter Twice-Weekly Daily Nightly Buzz. And way more poorly written than usual. Yadayada exam season.
Hope everyone who has exams and papers and the like are holding up alright!
Until Sunday at 10:03 pm, buzz on, my busy bees!
