A Public Statement

As has become increasingly, abundantly clear about how things have progressed, information has come to light about goings on both on and off of this site and Gliscord that have shone a light on things that I had not accounted for.

I had accounted for permissions. I had accounted for funding. I had accounted for expertise. I had accounted for safeguards.

Everything on our front should have been working correctly. Had been working correctly. Is still working correctly. Our work is sound. Our systems are sound. Our results are sound.

I had not accounted for human error and intent.

It seems, in my haste to defend us, I had managed to rather soundly forget what a publicly funded organization should have done: investigate these claims thoroughly. And I know what many may state when they hear that: "We have not found any wrongdoing after a private internal investigation". This is not that kind of statement.

With the help of the leader of the Taskforce Distortion, information had come to light that a slip-up on our part had led to a leak. One that has very firmly been sealed. It was not a fault of the system. It was a fault of the user. And I am taking proper corrective measure to ensure this never happens again and that the results of this leak have proper measures taken to minimize or prevent any damage. Affected parties will be reached out to promptly.

Support will nonetheless be... tense from this point forward. At least from you all. And I do understand that. This blog is a public-facing one. Which does mean that the University of Jubilife has been shown this statement before publication. Our funding will continue, but we have additional criteria for our progress reports to file to ensure this does not happen again. Science is about taking risks, yes, but taking steps to minimize it is key.

As it stands, though, I want to put my money where my mouth is.

I have extended an offer to the leader of the Taskforce Distortion, Shadow, for cooperation. They were fundamental in finding this leak and informing me of its consequences. Their knowledge of the Distortion World, as well, could be astronomical in its furtherance of our research and how to handle things going forward. And to my surprise?

They accepted.

I have further work to put forth on a bureaucratic level to ensure that this can be done in an official capacity, but the University has been informed, has been handed relevant information, and will be in contact with myself as the liaison for further establishment of this future partnership.

Thank you for your understanding. And for your support if you deem us worthy to continue offering it.

Dandey! Can I buy that air horn? Definitely gonna use it for moral and unbothersome purposes ^^

My apologies. It’d… be preferable if you didn’t buy the airhorns. He’d certainly appreciate it.

[c-s-bitties]

Hey guys, check it out. I’m finally posting a bitty of mine for the first time (with a little tweaking to his design by Starry). It’s about time, honestly... I came up with the idea of this boy here like three years ago... Social anxiety is a bitch.

Anyway! Information under the cut. <3

Also he’s supposed to have a tiny crown but Starry is mean to me and said it looked tacky >:(

- Not recommended for first time adopters! ⚠️

- Don’t let his cute appearance fool you. This bitty is very bratty, very sassy, and has a rather bad attitude. He can be egotistical and think he deserves more attention than anyone else.

- Obviously, he demands a lot of attention. He loves physical affection especially, such as head rubs, and will get very annoyed if he goes too long without getting any. If he gets desperate enough for attention, which doesn’t take much, he will resort to being destructive and showing off until his caretaker notices.

- Cusses a lot, only because he can and believes he can get away with it because he’s cute and hard to resist. Honestly though, the more you tell him to stop, the more he will probably do it, so it’s best to not say anything about it.

- Sometimes if he doesn’t get his way, he might end up throwing a temper tantrum. These usually range from loud sobbing and screaming to getting violent and destructive. In worst case scenarios, he might even bite if anyone gets too close to him. Alternatively, depending on what it is he is wanting, he might instead choose to pout and give his caretaker the silent treatment until they cave.

- Fun fact, he is actually extremely ticklish. Sometimes this can be taken advantage of during smaller tantrums to divert his attention or to at least get him to cooperate. If successful, he’ll instead choose to pout until something else catches his attention.

- Even though he can be a brat and difficult to handle, there are plenty of plus sides to adopting him. He is loyal and always prepared to defend his caretaker from anything, as he considers them his and won’t let anyone hurt what is his. He is also compassionate and affectionate in his own ways. These ways are usually... violent... but it’s the thought that counts. 

- Very attached to the teddy bear he has with him and carries it everywhere he goes, although the poor thing tends to lose its head whenever he throws a tantrum, requiring it to be sewn back on. If it is ever taken from him, he will be utterly inconsolable and extra destructive until it is returned to him. If this happens, he will be extra clingy with it and won’t trust anyone to be around it. 

- Bites whenever he feels even a little threatened, no matter how strong the offending person may be. Fair warning: his bites hurt, almost like being bitten by a snake.

- Absolutely loves anything shiny or cute whether it’s jewelry, sequins, stickers, rhinestones, etc. If you aren’t careful, he will snatch any items like this he finds and hide them away somewhere his caretaker cannot reach. You probably won’t get any of it back, even if you ask nicely.

- It’s best to adopt him on his own with no other bitties in the household, because there’s a good chance he won’t get along well with them. If you want to adopt another bitty with him, it’s best to let him bond with one and choose for himself. 

- He is not at all compatible with skittish or jumpy bitties because of his loud nature, and he will most certainly end up frightening them. Physically violent bitties are not a good choice either, as fights will most certainly happen. If they’re only verbally mean though, it should be fine.

(18+) - Despite how he may come across sometimes, and despite being of age, he is very innocent when it comes to anything sexual. Innuendos and seduction usually go right over his head.

Hello, Worlds!

We bid thee welcome to the official Rotomblr blog of the Cosmos Foundation, a multiversal-focused study advocacy group and think tank for the applications of what our fellows have been capable of beyond the veil.

Our world has long been cut off from the multiverse sans rather sparse moments or through the power of beings of extraordinary powers, and only through recent developments have we been getting signals that allow us to connect with the broader tapestry of creation that spacetime has given us access to. As such, the Cosmos Foundation follows three key tenets:

To advocate for technological growth and development of a more robust, stable connection to other dimensional planes.

To assist and fund efforts in the former through our own research and in bettering the lives of both our fellow man and Pokemon alike.

To push for the uplifting of those that require the help our current systems cannot help in any meaningful way.

We are a group of people dedicated to the improvement of the star we live upon. Those with disabilities here may have more meaningful assistance elsewhere we can draw inspiration from. Technology may be far more advanced, but at achievable levels reached with close examination here. And of course, worlds where Pokemon play an even more integral role that is not simply in service of humanity, but in cooperation with them.

Our main moderation team is threefold: Mods Crescent, Luna and Apogee, all denoted with the appropriate colors you see here! Click their names to get to know us all a bit better!

We hope to get to know you better as we explore the multiverse together!

//Welcome, welcome, one and all to this rousing circus' outlandish call.

I am fully invested in my bullshit, and you're gonna need to find out for yourself whether or not this blog is what it says it is or not~!

Mun's an adult, all mods are adults, this is however an officially-facing PR account for a "Team" of sorts. Whether or not they're closer to something like Team Magma and Plasma, Teams Yell or Skull or even the Aether Foundation is up to you all to find out~!

Have fun harassing the mods, they're all here for the long haul!

[the-cosmos-foundation]

I have been made aware of issues in my team and in regarding to another within our universe that has somehow come into contact with what we are working with. I will be gathering everything I can in an effort to make things right.

A public statement will be released tomorrow. Until I can lock down what has happened and what will happen in the future, our experiments have been halted.

Thank you for your understanding.

And thank you to the @taskforcedistortion's Shadow for bringing this to my attention.

And what if another universe could come into yours through the Distortion world?

I can confidently say that this is not a possibility without us knowing before it happens. It could. But we'd know.

(From the @taskforcedistortion account) I am the Leader of the Taskforce Distortion.

What one of our division members said was a spiteful remark inured by stress of the current situation.

I was stressed by the seeming disregard of our way of travel, and I felt asking you upfront about that would not give me a good response.

None of us have good experiences with group organizations, and are currently dealing with one that is stressing us out due to a member of ours being within that universe. (You've seen them, Project Exclusion)

So we assumed the worse due to past experience.

This is not an excuse of my Division Leader's or my behavior, this is a explanation for our stress.

We are under duress, our minds are very frayed, we are doing our best with the current intense stress that is being put on us.

Miscommunications happen, assumptions are made, fear and spite can take over our minds in the worst of situations, and I deeply apologize for that.

Looking from a outside view, your seeming 'trashing' of the Distortion world greatly upset me and sent a large number of us into a panic.

We did not know how you would react from a direct confrontation.

We were not thinking clearly.

... Though those anons were not from any of our active members, frankly I do not know where they are from. Which is the manner of this website... a very annoying part of this website.

I wish that part of the site was not present in this current moment, as it brought the situation to light before any of us in the Taskforce could calm down to have a proper discussion.

[This ask has been answered privately.]

Answering this privately for the sake of simply not dragging this into a public forum... I will offer an olive branch. I accept the apology and explanation. Another by the name of 'Shape' had opted to explain the "why" earlier, though I opted not to answer it because it sounded closer to "this is why they acted like that, you should be more understanding" when I had never been given that context. Only the... unprofessional accusation and subsequent jester's jabbing the anonymous users had given. I understand a defensive notion towards your colleagues and friends... but too defensive and it comes across as accusatory.

I want to know what's led to such a violent dismissal of both our mission statement and up-front knowledge. I'm sure you can see why keeping the fact that we have a rapport with Giratina, at least the one that functions in the Distortion World near our own reality, under the radar was a cautionary move we had made. It was... my own disdain for yet another dismissal of my actions that made me "lash out".

...I will... provide some measure of proof of my words, though. I want this to go well, especially after having taken a closer, more scrutinizing look at this Project Exclusion you've mentioned. I am... equally as disturbed as you are in that front.

I freely offer this: do you know the name Saturn?
