Midweek Musings, Save Yourself from The Racket

I’ve said many times, self-care is important! Well, this week I was reminded, “So is financial self-protection.” Who wants to throw away money? I sure don’t. I learned years ago to shop around for auto insurance. If you had no claim history, shopping around is in your favor. I plan to do it for every Auto insurance renewal. Facebook donations- I was looking at all PayPal purchases for the last…

MidWeek Musings

Title of made up fic (I'm not good at this though, titles are the hardest thing):

Cigarettes, coffee and chaos

Oooh @for-a-longlongtime this is a cute and spicy one. I have Dieter and Javi P both in mind for this.

Cigarettes, Coffee, & Chaos - a Dieter Bravo x gn!assistant!Reader story

Desperate for a new job after your old employer left you high and dry, you accept a position as Dieter Bravo's personal assistant. The high turnover rate of this particular job is infamous, but nothing could have prepared you for the utter chaos that was keeping Dieter Bravo alive & (sort of) well. Cleaning up after Dieter's drug-fueled midweek binges was an anticipated part of the job, but what you don't predict is how much Dieter would open up to you -- giving you an inside look into the real man behind the trash-panda-like facade. As the two of you become increasingly intertwined, can you keep business and pleasure separated? Better yet, do you even want to?

Cigarettes, Coffee, and Chaos - A Javier Pena x CIA agent!afab!Reader story

Taking down the biggest drug lords in Columbia was an absolute pipe dream of a job offer, and yet here you were -- running after Escobar's men, spending sweltering days listening in on hushed phone calls, and scrounging CIA intelligence reports for any intel leads into the wee hours of the night with Javier Pena, the DEA's most trusted -- and sometimes hardheaded and reckless -- asset. Somewhere in the middle of the tensions between your two organizations and the long stakeouts with Javier, a spark ignited and grew between the two of you, threatening your peace of mind, logic, and professionalism. Will you be able to keep the fire at bay, or will it consume you just as the narcos consume Columbia?

midweek commonplace book: the rough drafts

5pm, wednesday, june 28, 2023

it's been over a month since i drafted the following ilcb post, and here i am again, in the same coffee shop i was in back then, again avoiding working on a cover letter for a course instructorship position. in the intervening time, i a) got that job b) taught that whole class, c) took a weekend trip to see a friend get married, and d) am now applying for the next one! figured it was time to open the vault (my chaotic drafts folder) and let these musings see the light of day. maybe it's the key to my success.

edits and new text below in [brackets] to preserve the original draft's ~authenticity~. XD

in lieu of a commonplace book: may day

3pm sunday, april 30 -- 6pm sunday, may 7, 2023

it's rainy and there are so many flowers starting to emerge in the neighborhood, and i've been cozily reading escapist fantasy instead of writing my syllabus or facing the future head on.

reading since i last made one of these posts, i've finished reading the following: the golden enclaves by naomi novik (audio), the jasmine throne by tasha suri, the seven husbands of evelyn hugo by taylor jenkins reid (audio), dial a for aunties by jesse sutanto (audio), and the tyrant baru cormorant by seth dickinson. this not being exclusively a book review series, unfortunately, we're just going to talk about the [left out the title but did include the picture so we know it was at the feet of the sun by victoria goddard!].

[i think i failed to actually write out my thought about this one because a number of people who follow me (@spoonierbard, @hematiterings) were either reading it or were about to start reading it, and i didn't want to color their experiences. i was also not entirely sure how i felt about it? i think i went in with expectations this time, which is a recipe for disappointment-- and i also had actual literary 'critique' thoughts primed and ready, as opposed to the pure vibes and pleasure with which i approached hote. overall-- and i say this as someone who reads and loves fan fiction-- it felt like reading fan fiction, ambitious, self-indulgent, big focus on relationships and feelings, and with a definite Point to Make. a behemoth of a book, and full of things to love--but less transcendent, for me, than its precursor. happy to expand on these feelings in a pm!]

listening

[i didn't write anything here, but i did include the two videos below. both were new to me this spring-- i never had a fallout boy phase in high school, please don't laugh, so it was very exciting to fall in love with first so much for stardust and then, at the recommendation of my housemate g, this track from folie a deux. 'disloyal order of water buffaloes']

[i think both of these songs are saying something about the mood i was in this spring-- yearning? defiant? a little pissed off? "hundred days" was a sptify recommendation, and fuck if they didn't get me in one. i have since investigated the duo behind the album a little and realized i have... possible thoughts, about their oeuvre, about making art out of their relationship, but this particular song unfortunately goes extremely hard for folk so i am compelled to love it! there's just something about the main melodic hook, the plaintive/desperate tone of some of the lyrics (especially 'i want / a hundred days / of bright light' each! time!), and the way there's so much going on in the arrangement at 2:34 ish-- i wish the rest of the album was as good as this one track. i want a hundred good days! of bright light! I do regularly think about things i'm trying or striving for and think "I want ! a hundred days !" of whatever it is. At least 100 days. there's something almost reminiscent of tiffany aching to this, for me-- using your selfishness/unvarnished wants to motivate you.]

watching taking a break from prestige tv!... with more prestige tv. started severance while my fellow succession and ted lasso-viewing housemate is out of the country. i love the stylization, the aesthetic, the eeriness! this is what i was hoping don't worry darling (2022) would be, in terms of combining a mid-century aesthetic with our main characters working for some enigmatic brain-washing Company or Project. Lumon better not be a simulation-- as i discovered back in january, i like it when there's some *there* there, when the conspiracy is actually as trippy as it seems, i understand that sometimes people want to write misdirection but man i am sad anytime something was all an illusion after all. also watched a bit of the first season of the gilded age and the first truly wild episode of mrs. davis with another housemate; there is no witty comparison or fun snappy one-liner i can come up with about these two.

[the above remains true-- i just watched a bit more severance yesterday! there was a massive cliffhanger just where i stopped, but the tone of the show is so Much that i actually was glad for the break. don't get me wrong-- i love how stylized it all is, still, i love the aesthetic and all the visual and verbal details that build up to mad-men-esque 60s office culture-horror, it's fantastic. getting that little extra moment with dichen lachman's character and hearing her talk about her experience was...gutting... but my favorite character continues to be devon.]

[playing]

[triumphant return to both dnd campaigns in the past week or so! it hasn't been entirely my fault that neither group met for most of the past six weeks, but i didn't help. campaign B had our one-year anniversary on sunday! one of the players went really overboard and commissioned a bunch of beautiful cards and badges and coins for us and our characters' little secret organization!! we broke the dm's screen door briefly and saw how big her baby has gotten!! we cried over @dimir-charmer's wedding dress! we successfully escaped the wild west!]

[making]

[didn't even draft this section. i thing i had just fixed...something, but who remembers what. pro cooking tip, leftover tortilla soup can become poor grad student shakshuka so easily. two eggs + in a pan + simmer = profit]

[working on]

[aforementioned cover letter for a course instructorship for next fall is due tomorrow. technically there are two i could be going for, both of which have definite pros and cons, but i'm pouring all this time and angst into one and just kinda forgot about the other? also i'm grading for two different classes, figuring out how to have sooo many tabs open at the same time and how to juggle spreadsheets+answer key+word+ pdf reader all at the same time. oh for the days of paper submissions, you know? last but not least, i am desultorily staring at the manuscript + outline for my conference paper for next month (less than a month now! fuck!) for like an hour a day, and making very little practical progress on it. so.

This week’s astrology forecast: February 19th to 25th

Message for the week:

The week starts with Chiron (the wounded healer) conjunct the North Node (the path of soul growth)—a good time to courageously claim your power by freeing yourself from any type of victim consciousness or being over-accommodating to the needs of others.

The two cosmic lovers, Venus and Mars, will be conjunct in Aquarius midweek, adding a magnetic spark to relationships and social dynamics.

The Full Moon in Virgo occurs on Saturday. The Full Moon illuminates, and with the Virgo filter, use discernment and integrate that which can be useful and eliminate all that is not useful. Virgo focuses on health, and the Full Moon can illuminate what adjustments you need to make to stay in optimum health. Saturday also features Venus being square to Jupiter activating an “urge to splurge”.

Monday: Chiron is conjunct the North Node today—draw on the strength you’ve gained from healing old wounds and courageously move forward. A good day for enhancing your security with the Moon in security-minded Cancer and in harmony to both organizing Saturn and expansive Jupiter. This is a good day for working with your finances.

Tuesday: A smooth day in the heavens with the Moon in nurturing Cancer in a stimulating sextile to intuitive Uranus—trust sudden flashes of insight. The Moon moves into a flowing trine to dreamy Neptune tonight, facilitating a peaceful sleep and vivid dreams.

Wednesday: The cosmic lovers, Venus and Mars, are conjunct in Aquarius today, bringing a spark of magnetism to all interactions. The Moon enters proud Leo this morning and immediately opposes eruptive Pluto—don’t let pride stand in the way of living from your heart. The Moon is opposite the Venus/Mars conjunction this evening—excellent for dating and romance.

Thursday: Venus is still travelling with Mars, energizing all interaction with a bit of charm. The Moon is in high-spirited Leo in a challenging square to rebellious Uranus, triggering a strong resistance to stupid people and stupid rules. Mercury enters introspective Pisces tonight, awakening greater compassion and understanding of others.

Friday: A high-spirited and playful day is in store with the Moon in heartful Leo, with no challenging aspects through the day—act with confidence. The Moon enters perfectionistic Virgo this evening and will be opposite Mercury in Pisces—this can lead to being hyper-critical of subjective, feeling based communication—don’t judge poetry.

Saturday: The Full Moon in Virgo occurs at 4:30 AM PST—a good day to reflect on all of the Pisces musings you may have and filter them with the Virgo discernment of what is useful and can be integrated into your life now. The opposition to dour Saturn midday, can bring on doubt—but confidence is restored as the Moon then moves into a flowing trine with bountiful Jupiter. Venus (pleasures) does square excessive Jupiter tonight, which can stimulate indulgent behavior—for good or for ill.

Sunday: A smooth day and excellent for tending to chores or an early spring clean-up around your place. The Moon is in task-oriented Virgo in supportive trine to innovative Uranus—trust sudden flashes of insight. The Moon is opposite transcendent Neptune late tonight, stimulating vivid, if not confusing dreams.

May the stars be with you!

a snippet + last line challenge

i’m halfway done with chapter 8 (it should be up by midweek!) so thank you to @beelou, @nooradeservedbetter, @larrysballetslippers & @beardyboyzx for tagging me to do a snippet! & thank you to @justahappycloud, @lunarheslwt, @thebreadvansstuff, @larry-hiatus, @hellolovers13 & @neondiamond for tagging me to do the last line challenge :)

snippet:

Harry will let him think whatever he wants as long as he gets to see Louis’ bicep muscles flexing. Not only does the sight make Harry’s jaw ache with how much he wants to bite them and suck a few bruises into the skin, but it's also phenomenal wank bank material. He’d never admit that if asked, but. The thought of Louis using them to pin him down, hold him up against a wall, choke him a little? Siri play ‘What Dreams Are Made Of’ by Hilary Duff, please and thank you. 

Plus, Louis is a sucker for Harry painting his nails — when he’d noticed Harry painted them a few weeks ago for the first time, Louis’ jaw had dropped and he immediately picked up Harry’s hand, gently running his thumb along the nail beds. When he’d looked back up into Harry’s eyes, Louis’ were noticeably darkened and his eyelids were hooded. The rest of the day, whenever he’d noticed Harry about to start a task that might ruin his nails, he’d intervene to help. Harry’s nails were definitely dry at this point and if they chipped, he could’ve always just redone them that night, but it was cute to see Louis care so much and it was lovely to be taken care of by him. The sexual tension had been through the roof that day, though; Niall and Liam even went as far as to stay out of Louis’ way entirely whenever they could — they did not want to get in between Louis and whatever he was going through. They didn’t even know about Harry and Louis almost getting off against Harry’s car before going home that night and Harry still couldn’t blame them. 

“You sure we really need to do that, Haz?” Louis asks with an amused glint in his eye as he raises an eyebrow.

Oh no. Louis might have caught on. There’s only one thing to do now: keep it moving. 

“Yeah, of course! We can’t form our best judgments just by looking at the photo on the paint canister, you know? Gotta open it up and look at the paint itself, too.” 

Right. Okay. Maybe not keep it moving like that. His flirting seriously, truly, honestly has a ways to go. How he managed to get someone like Louis, he’s got no idea; his game is absolutely atrocious. 

One might say that maybe his first issue is still using the word ‘game’, but that’s neither here nor there, thanks.

“Right,” Louis muses, smirking knowingly when he takes the canister, watching as Harry’s eyes immediately dart to his biceps, “well if it means so much to you, I suppose we could take a look.”

last line:

“He’s never felt so seductive and powerful before in his life; maybe there is something to be said about spontaneity being a turn on after all.”

ok so the last line is 25 words but i don’t know anyone who hasn’t done either of these atp so i’m just gonna tag a few people & not worry ab the count lol: @lululawrence, @brightgolden, @loveislarryislove, @kingsofeverything, @the-larry-way, @tommokat, @kingonafiftymetreroad, @hearyouhowling, @greenblueish & @jaerie

(also yes this fic has essentially become a long winded appreciation post for louis’ arms/biceps but can u blame me???)

Best Times To Post On Social Media In 2024 (Platform By Platform)

Ever wondered why some social media posts seem to explode with engagement, while others vanish into the digital abyss? Timing plays a crucial role! Posting when your target audience is most active significantly increases the chances of your content being seen, liked, and shared. Connect with us to hire us as your social media agency.  

But with different platforms having unique user behaviors, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Fear not, fellow social media warriors! This blog dives deep into the best times to post on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest in 2024, giving you the tools to conquer each platform.

Why Timing Is So Important?

Cutting Through The Noise

Social media platforms are flooded with content. Algorithms prioritize posts receiving immediate engagement, pushing them to the top of feeds. Posting during peak hours ensures your content has a better chance of being seen before it gets buried by the next wave.

Relevance In The Moment

Imagine sharing a delicious recipe at midnight. While it might look mouthwatering, the timing is off. People are more likely to engage with content relevant to their current activity. Posting during peak hours for specific content types (e.g.,recipes during lunchtime) increases the chance of immediate interest and interaction.

Building Habits And Anticipation

Consistent posting times create a rhythm for your audience. They know when to expect your content and are more likely to check your page at those times. This consistency fosters a sense of community and keeps your brand top-of-mind.

Instagram: Catching Those Scrollers

Instagram is a land of visuals, and timing your posts to capture eyeballs is crucial. Generally, weekdays are your golden ticket. Here’s a breakdown:

Monday to Friday Mornings on the Move (5 AM to 9 AM): People tend to scroll through Instagram during their commutes or coffee breaks. A visually captivating post between 5 to 9 AM can grab their attention as they start their day.

Lunchtime Likes (12 PM to 2 PM): As the workday hunger pangs hit, people often reach for their phones. A lunchtime post (around 12 PM to 2 PM) might be the perfect distraction (and potential food inspiration!).

Evening Cheers (5 PM to 6 PM): As the day is about to end, people scroll it for post. But if you want to post reels then 9 pm-8 am is the ideal time. 

Saturday & Sunday (9 AM to 2 PM): On weekends people want to sit back and relax and that is why they scroll through these ideal times.   

Facebook: Finding Your Facebook Fam

Facebook thrives on a mix of personal and professional content. Here’s when to target your audience:

Midweek Musings (Wednesdays, 3 PM): The middle of the workweek often sees dips in productivity. A Facebook post during this time might be a welcome break for your audience.

Funday Thursday and Fridays (1 PM to 4 PM ): Thursday and Fridays bring a lighter mood. Schedule a post for around 01 PM to 04 PM catch the pre-weekend excitement and get those shares rolling.

Weekend Wind-Down (Saturdays & Sundays, 12 PM – 1 PM): People relax and socialize on weekends. A Facebook post around noon or 1 PM on Saturdays or Sundays can be a great way to connect with your followers on a more personal level.

LinkedIn: Reaching The Professional Realm

LinkedIn is all about career building and networking. Here’s how to time your posts for maximum impact:

Weekday Mornings Monday and Friday (7:30 AM to 8:30 AM): Professionals are typically active on LinkedIn during work hours. Target them with informative posts between 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM and noon on weekdays, when they’re checking updates and making connections.

Lunchtime Learning Mornings Monday and Friday (12 PM ): The lunch break is a prime time for people to catch up on industry news and thought leadership. Share valuable content around lunchtime (between 12 PM) to position yourself as an expert.

Evening Monday and Friday (5 PM – 6 PM): As the workday wraps up, professionals might be reflecting and planning ahead. A post around 5 PM or 6 PM can spark discussions and establish you as a thought leader in your field.

Tuesday (10 AM to 11 AM): The second day’s morning of the week generally motivates people to check updates and build valuable connections.  

Pinterest: Pinning At The Perfect Moment

Pinterest is a visual discovery engine, and timing your pins strategically can significantly boost their reach. Here’s when to target pinners:

Monday to Sunday Post-noons are for Window Shopping (2 PM – 4 PM): People often browse Pinterest for inspiration and ideas in the evenings. Schedule your pins for this time slot (between 2 PM to 4 PM) to catch them in their planning phase.

Fun Friday (3 PM): Post lunch on friday people are relaxed, so 3pm is an ideal time to attract people. 

Weekend Creativity (Saturday Mornings, 8 PM – 11 PM): Weekends are for pursuing hobbies and DIY projects. A Pinterest pin showcasing on a Saturday evening (between 8 PM and  11 PM) can inspire and lead to saves and clicks.

It’s A Social Science, Not An Exact Formula

While these are general guidelines, the best time to post on social media ultimately depends on your specific audience and content type. Here are some bonus tips to optimize your posting strategy:

Know your audience: Who are you targeting? Understanding their demographics and online habits is key.

Analytics are your allies: Utilize platform insights to see when your audience is most active and engaging with your content.

Experiment and adapt: Don’t be afraid to try different times and track the results.

Post consistently: Regular posting keeps your brand visible and builds a loyal following.

Am I a....(Insert F word)

“I think my friend’s a feminist. She’s gonna start marching in protests for Planned Parenthood or N.O.W. I think she might even burn her bras….” Good! I’ve never done any of those things, yet I seethe when anyone says, “Feminism is the cause of the breakdown of the family unit.” Really? You’re implying that if a woman’s husband dies and she must solely support her children, she should basically…

Evening, it is midweek and I am around and I would love to see some more muses here in Prose. With the recent news causing a stir in the small town, come bring your character and join the drama! 

Turning to the outlook for the next ten days, not too much to report. Some crummy rain showers on Monday, and then a midweek cold front that doesn’t really alter the overall pattern much. As one met I follow on Twitter mused, it’s nice that fall is going well this year, instead of rocking from summertime heat to blasts of cold and rain. Instead, just the gradual decent from summer into fall. 

Alejandro Zelaya. Source: a video screenshot, Ministerio de Hacienda/ YouTube El Salvador's financing minister states he is unworried by global markets forecasters' forecasts that the nation will default on USD 800 million bond payments early next year. ElSalvador.com, the site of the paper El Diario de Hoy, estimated minister Alejandro Zelaya as specifying that doors were "open" at "multilateral companies" that might offer El Salvador with "funding alternatives." Zelaya declared that the World Bank had actually "simply authorized" the nation "a loan of USD 100 million," while the Central American Bank for Economic Integration had actually likewise approved a loan of USD 220 million. He confessed, nevertheless, that a loan handle the Development Bank of Latin America ( CAF) was still being completed. But, he included, the country might look for other methods to guarantee that it did not default. He described: " I can go to the local financial obligation market or I can provide a three-year regional bond in Central America. The reality is, USD 800 million in a [nationwide] budget plan of USD 7,000 million is a minimal quantity. It is little." And Zelaya firmly insisted that the Salvadoran federal government had no intent of defaulting, including: " [The USD 800 million costs] is not unpayable. It does not trigger us any issue." Regardless, worldwide observers declare that El Salvador stays in hot water. La Prensa Gráfica reported that nation danger indications "soared" today "to levels never ever seen prior to" in the country's history. The bonds in concern lost approximately 20% of their worth in a single day midweek. "Markets," the paper composed, "do not rely on that the nation can fulfill its future monetary commitments." JPMorgan experts argued that the level of El Salvador's possibility to default on its payment responsibilities is the second-highest in the Latin America area, behind just Venezuela. Bloomberg economic experts likewise determined El Salvador as one of 5 international economies that are the "most susceptible to a default" in the future, the paper kept in mind. The very same paper priced estimate the economic expert Ricardo Castaneda, of the Central American Institute of Fiscal Studies(ICEFI), as discussing that markets are most concerned about "the absence of clearness about the procedures that the federal government is taking" to settle its financial obligation. He included that this had actually been intensified by poor-performing financial signs, consisting of low GDP development, a downturn in the invoice of remittances from abroad, and high inflation. Castaneda believed that "political sound" about the possibility of governmental re-election was likewise an element. President Nayib Bukele's term ends in2024 He looks set to look for re-election after a constitutional court last year altered the law to enable presidents to serve more than one term. Challengers have actually questioned the legality of this choice, declaring that the constitutional court has actually been filled with Bukele-supporting judges. However, popular assistance for Bukele stays high, despite the fact that his presidency, Castaneda recommended, creates "unpredictability" and a "uncertainty" in the bonds markets. Bukele has actually reacted with defiance, nevertheless, recommending that his bitcoin (BTC) adoption strategies will assist reinforce the economy. He just recently required to Twitter, his favored medium of interaction, to grumble about a New York Times post entitled "El Salvador's Big Bet on Bitcoin Isn't Paying off." He mused: " Since when [has] the New York Times dedicated a lot time and area to El Salvador's financial efforts? It's clear they're scared [that] bitcoin is inescapable. By the method, they state we're heading to default. Will they release an apology once we pay whatever on time?" And Bukele definitely has some noteworthy global backers in his mission to turn El Salvador into an international BTC center.

Meanwhile, as reported the other day, the crypto exchange Bitfinex revealed that it will contribute BTC 36 and USD 600,000 worth of tether (USDT) to assist small companies and neighborhoods in the nation. The exchange stated the funds were set to be dispersed in locations that have actually been impacted by gang-related criminal activity. ____ Read More
