putting my prediction on record now that the coming decade is going to see the rise of viral-marketed fancy at-home water filtration systems, driving and driven by a drastic reduction in the quality of U.S. tap water (given that we are in a 'replacement era' where our current infrastructure is reaching the end of its lifespan--but isn't being replaced). also guessing that by the 2030s access to drinkable tap water will be a mainstream class issue, with low-income & unstably housed people increasingly forced to rely on expensive bottled water when they can't afford the up-front cost of at-home filtration--and with this being portrayed in media as a "moral failing" and short-sighted "choice," rather than a basic failure of our political & economic systems. really hope i'm just being alarmist, but plenty of this already happens in other countries, and the U.S. is in a state of decline, so. here's praying this post ages into irrelevance. timestamped April 2023

many subs are so worried about being perfect, while missing that they’re just supposed to be good; like the classic goon to my villainess. it’s fine to just go: “on it boss” and proceed to completely fuck things up, while I watch with a smile, thinking about how adorable they are, not in the least worried about the success of my villainous machinations, because all my plans already anticipate the clumsy bundle of anxious cuteness, that is my sub. reverence trumps performance. I don’t need you to excel past all expectations; I just need you to worship me.

i wanted to try making a tfa ravage but she ended up being more of shockwave's friend than soundwave's. in my head ravage is undercover alongside "longarm" as "blackcat"; they're spy friends!
