you know what i find surprising but probably shouldn’t find surprising at this point about the monterey park shooting is how fucking absent the cops were throughout fucking all of it

like. the man had a long history of mental illness, had multiple run-ins with the cops, and not once. NOT ONCE. did they ever help him. whatever it takes to push a person to commit the atrocities he did that night, i’m not saying he shouldn’t be accountable for his actions. but the cops are 100% at fault for it too, and should be to blame for their abject failure to protect their community. of which that man was a part. they failed him.

on top of all that. i was talking with my therapist today who grew up in the area and was at the LNY festival that day (before the shooting) and she said that the mood was already incredibly off that day because there were ARMED COPS AT THE FESTIVAL. and police booths with like. pamphlets and photo ops with uniforms and toy guns (!!!!!!!) and shit for little kids to take photos.

like why. WHY would you bring FUCKING FIREARMS to a festival meant to celebrate LIFE and JOY and PROSPERITY. they don’t have armed cops at fucking smorgasburg.

i mean we know why lmao

so it’s like. all this propaganda because the population there does skew older and morse conservative than other parts of LA. but like. WHERE WAS THE PROTECTION WHEN WE NEEDED IT THAT SAME NIGHT????

it wasn’t even cops who disarmed the man at the 2nd dance hall and saved the lives of everyone there, IT WAS A CIVILIAN.

and they chased the shooter all the way to torrance. FUCKING TORRANCE that’s an entire city and county away. like i go to both places fairly often but by no means are they places that i would go to in the same day. they’re SO far away from each other. they are on OPPOSITE SIDES of the city of los angeles. and they had to chase him ALL THE WAY THERE??? like do you realize how fucking bad you have to be at your job to have to chase a man WHO YOU HAVE A RECORDED HISTORY OF DEALING WITH. ALL THE WAY TO A DIFFERENT FUCKING COUNTY.

anyway fuck the cops fuck the cops fuck the cops fuck the cops i’m gonna fucking scream

#cw mass shooting #i've been feeling a lot of things in the last 4 days but mostly now it's condensed into anger #i know it's not a new narrative that cops fail every community they're supposed to protect except for one (we all know which)#but this is the closest to home it's ever hit for me personally and it's very very close and i'm very very angry #anyway i really needed to get this off my chest but i don't particularly want to talk about it either so i'm turning off replies/rbs #but yeah #i hate it here #ok actually idk how to turn off replies lmao whatever

tfw you find yourself receiving way too many unsolicited job offers solely because you forgot to deactivate your job searching profiles _(:’3 」∠)_

#like there was that one recruitment agency lady who randomly hit me up to set up an interview for this pharmacy tech job at a hospital #(flaked and ghosted on that one after telling her i couldn’t make the interview though)#and after that i kept getting rather obviously shady job ads so it was fine ig…#but then!!! i got a job offer from freakin’ merck(????) today and i??? lol??? what’s an mnc doing in my inbox???#what am i even supposed to say to that? ‘oh hello [local division of] merck. i’m a huge fan of your agar’?#help why do job recruitment staff contact me more often than my former irl acquaintances lmao #i still can’t believe that i got more job offers while i’m not actively looking for a job than when i was searching desperately for a job :(#i really need to set a reminder to deactivate my profiles… all 3(?) of them #adult life man… never again _(:3 」∠)_#inedible blubbering #fml i realised that i forgot to turn off rbs for this one too… the option is way too tiny on mobile!!!!!!!!!

something that is both fascinating and bothers me to a certain extent is the prevalence of in group and out group language that many nationalities have. and it has less to do with the in group language and more to do with the out group naming

#turning off rbs bc i refuse to let this breach containment bc this website is stupid and i know people will not want to have any kind #of conversation that doesn’t consist of name calling and bill shit #*bullshit #bc i’m not singling anyone or any group out here #i just think it’s interesting and uncomfortable in many ways how it’s deemed necessary that an out group needs to have specific names #that can be said with vitriol at said other group #even the most basic bland example of romans calling other groups barbarians bc ‘their language just sounds like bar bar bar to us’#like yes or we could just call them other people #having a name to unite yourself or your group isn’t a bad thing #i just think you start treading into some Territory when you start calling other people names in any regard lmao #idk how else to put it and it’d be easier to explain talking than through text but #it just feels like it’s set up to cause unnecessary drama #talking

But Baby, It's Cold Outside

Type - One-Shoty Blurb!

Verse - Singer!Harry x Ceo!Y/n

Word Count - 1.2k

Warnings - None, just some tooth rotting fluff ;)

A/N - Y/n blushes so hard in this one I was legit smiling while writing the ending lmao. Hope you guys like it just as much! <3

MASTERLIST | Please rb to share!

Y/n was on her knees on the carpeted floor, her hands stacking things up on the Christmas mantel that she had been set on decorating since she'd opened her eyes this morning. Her knees hurt because of the hardwood floor, but it was better than having to bend down while standing up, nevertheless.

They were surprisingly late to decorate for Christmas this year because of their prolonged stay over at Anne's for a while. After all, Anne wanted the see her daughter-in-law who was pregnant with her grandson or granddaughter -- and Y/n was starting to feel more and more deprived of a mother's love by each day, making Harry take her to Anne.

She had put Harry to work currently with fluffing up the Christmas tree's leaves, and to decorate it with the string lights they'd bought just the day before. He was crouching just about beside her, facing her with the tall tree standing between them.

"I swear, this tree has got me working the hardest I ever have," Harry joked, wiping the sheen layer of sweat on his face. He chuckled when Y/n shook her head, laughing at him and not at his joke -- but he didn't need to know that. "So dramatic," he heard her murmur under her breath, knowing that she meant for him to hear it.

"I'm the one who's dramatic?" He questioned her with a touch of accusation to it. "You're the one who's been up my arse this whole month with 'let's do this, let's do that'!" Mimicking her, Harry smacked his hand on the tree and hissed in pain when a thorn pricked his finger.

A smirk appeared on Y/n's face as she continued to mess with the order of stuff she'd stacked up on the mantel. Shrugging, she said, "that's what you get for teasing me."

Herry scoffed instead of saying anything and went back to fluffing up the tallest bit of the tree. His armpits were moist with his sweat but he wouldn't even dare to think about putting out the crackling-fire in the fireplace. He might be a naturally warm body, but Y/n definitely wasn't.

Whether it was summer, or winter -- her body was never found to be hot. Hell, even when she took off her fuzzy socks last night her feet were freezing cold. And, with the baby growing in her body, Harry wouldn't even let Y/n remove the thin blanket he had wrapped around her frame when he woke up at the first ray of sunshine and realized that it had started snowing.

"H? Will you please bring me those mini-Christmas trees?" Y/n asked him, turning to give him some puppy-eyes but caught him watching the snowflakes on the windowpane instead. Tilting her head and joining him in looking outside, her lips stretched in a smile.

The snow fell soundlessly, drifting down like white and fluffy cold crystals. It brought an essence of magic in the world, falling softly into blankets that cover the landscape.

"...'course," she heard him mumble, and turned just in time to catch the smile he passed her with a glint in his eyes that she'd come to recognize as admiration. Though she wasn't sure if what he was admiring then was the snow, her, or the 7-month baby bump.

In the time that Harry went to pick up the set of trees from the kitchen island, Y/n dropped the blanket from her shoulders, feeling too hot suddenly. The room had grown too warm for her current liking, and as she sat down cross-legged on the floor to give her knees some rest, she wished for Harry to be back by her side.

She slipped back on her bottom until her aching back hit the leg of the sofa and rested there. Patting the spot next to her, she invited Harry to sit beside her and whined internally when he passed her a knowing look and brought back the blanket with him. "Open the window if you're going to make me wear that blanket again," she told him pointedly, passing him a smile to tell him she didn't mean that behaviour seriously.

"But baby," Harry looked at her with a desperate look on his face. "It's cold outside!" he told her, wanting to open the window himself but he simply denied to because he couldn't have Y/n catch a cold. He sat down, spreading his legs and crossing them at the ankles.

He draped the blanket over both of their legs, making sure her bump is also covered. Leaning in, he pressed his lips on her pouted ones, smiling in the midst when she wouldn't back away.

Y/n reached for one of the kid's books that she'd been reading to learn some stories she could tell her little bundle of love when they were old enough to whine to her for just one more story. With some trouble, she caught the book on the sofa behind her and opened it, keeping it tilted just in case Harry wanted to join her.

But Harry was rather busy idly playing with her free hand, and as she continued to read, she felt him raise her hand up and press a kiss into her palm. Her cheeks, that were already rosy because of the cold, had now turned a shade of raging red and Harry couldn't help but cackle at that.

Y/n slapped his arm, an embarrassed smile dressed on her lips. "Stop it," she hissed, unable from removing the bashful smile on her mouth when Harry kisses the back of her hand the other time around. She turned her face away so that he couldn't see the cherry-red tint on her face, her mouth trembling because of the shy-giggle she was working hard to keep in.

Harry loved seeing the smallest gestures affect her in ways that she couldn't even control. Sputters of laughter kept falling from his mouth and when she didn't turn to face him after some while, he couldn't help but grab her chin and make her look at him.

Although she had shut her eyes tightly, the apple of her cheeks still suffused with a shade of pink that he decided was his favourite from now on. "C'mon!" He laughed when she wouldn't open her eyes.

He had only started getting such exquisite reactions out of her since he put a baby in her, and God, he would put another one in there if she would keep making him lose his mind like this.

Suddenly, a yelp flew out of his mouth, and he flinched away when she pressed her icy foot flat on his calf.

"Oh my god," he laughed with a surprised expression on his feet. "Baby, how the fuck are you so cold, still?" He shouted with laughter, his heart bursting with love when she started laughing profusely with her head thrown back. He, somewhere in the midst of it all, had stopped laughing, gazing at her instead.

But when Y/n didn't hear him laughing along with her, she opened her eyes only to find him looking at her as if she'd had hung stars in the room for him; and Harry swore her eyes were genuinely glittering and shimmering with something he was sure the poets would call love.

genshin & hsr men + riding ! — ❥ kaeya, ayato, kaveh || caelus, blade, luka — ❥ cw: fem!reader. smut. unprotected sex. creampie (kaeya, kaveh, luka). praise + position switching (kaeya). edging/orgasm denial + power bottom!ayato. cockwarming + subby!kaveh. semi-clothed sex (kaveh, caelus). reverse cowgirl -> prone bone (blade). slight roughness + semi-public + clothed sex (luka). — ❥ note: i wasnt sure how to even tag this so im not tagging at all LMAO. i just needed to get it out of my system. so, rbs appreciated!!

【 ❥ 】 KAEYA sits you up nice and pretty in his lap, your chests inches apart. he'll rock your hips, and his fingers will lightly dig into your skin. his knees are bent underneath him, propping him up at an angle that never misses that sweet spot. his hips move in tandem with yours, grinding you against him. his lips pepper you in kisses, from your mouth and chin to your neck and collarbone.

even though the two of you are already impossibly close, it isn't enough for him. his hands move from your waist and his arms wrap around your back before he's laying you down and deeply thrusting into you. your legs squeeze his torso, your arms wrap around his shoulders, and he buries his head into the crook of your neck. both of you so close to the edge, holding onto each other as he picks up his pace. by the time you're gasping out his name, his cock is twitching and he's spilling his seed in you– soft reassurances and praises being muttered into your skin while your mind reels.

【 ❥ 】 AYATO leans back, hand resting behind his head as he watches you take your time. each roll of your hips is another test geared toward his self-discipline. your hand rests on his chest, his free one trailing up and down your leg. he can't help but admire how good you look on top of him, and the way you slide up and down on his cock.

he gets amusement out of telling you to stop just as you're about to cum. something about the pitiful whine leaving your mouth made him throb in anticipation, but it was never enough to cave. and after a moment of stillness, he'll allow you to continue– slowly, of course. while you'd whimper in the moment, aching for release, you knew you wouldn't experience as good of a high if he were to let you cum sooner. after all, his self control wasn't what needed work. yours was.

【 ❥ 】 KAVEH groans when you tease his leaky tip, tightly clutching the pencil he had in hand. his eyes close and his head drops onto your shoulder when you finally sink down. he'd been so focused on his latest project, and you finally convinced him to take a small break and relax. just for a few minutes, you promise. but, he finds himself unable to focus with you squeezing him so tight, and he shifts slightly in his seat every few seconds.

he is unable to resist, pleading with you to move. your teasing with the small roll of your hips, his hands gripping your thighs in anticipation. only when you lift his head to capture his lips with yours do you begin to pick up the pace. his whines encourage you to roll your hips until he's gasping against your mouth that he's gonna cum.

【 ❥ 】 CAELUS sighs against your lips as you cup his cheeks. you were laying on top of him, driving him wild with how you were grinding down on his cock. you were slow, teasing, making his head spin with each thrust. he couldn't help it. one simple touch from you turned him into putty. and you on top of him, wearing just his hoodie, had his mind moving faster than he could keep up with.

he can't help but wrap his arms around you, working his hips up to match his rhythm with yours. a moan falls off your lips, and you rest your forehead against his, letting him take over. each stroke becoming just slightly more forceful before he's got you feeling dizzy and clamping down on his cock. his mouth once again finds yours, muffling the noises he didn't want anyone else to hear.

【 ❥ 】 BLADE curses as you bounce in his lap, your back pressed against his chest. one arm snakes around your waist to toy with your clit, causing your back to arch just slightly. your pace begins to match the rhythm of his fingers– slowing you down even though you wanted more. but you knew he'd bring down your small illusion of control eventually, especially when he can feel you getting close.

he pushes himself off his knees, pushing you forward and into the mattress. you let out a gasp at the new angle he was hitting before it dissolved into a whine. he pressed little kisses into your shoulder, one hand lightly raising your hips up as he relentlessly bottoms out inside you. your hands tightly grip the sheets, eyes closing as he pushes you into an euphoric state of mind.

【 ❥ 】 LUKA has both hands holding your hips down as his pistons into you. whispers fell off your lips at his harsh pace, head falling back at the feeling of him rubbing you raw. your hands brace his toned chest, knees digging in to the padded floor of the fight club's training room, along with your shorts and panties digging into your skin from being pushed aside. he just can't help it– the first time you slide down on him has him insatiable and he can't help getting a little rough. not that you minded, though.

the clicking of his metal arm and your noises echoed off the walls, sure to draw attention if anyone was still loitering around the club, but he didn't care. he didn't let up, drilling into you as he chased both your highs. one of his hands travels up to your back, pulling you in to hastily press his lips against yours. he's lost in the way you taste, moaning against your mouth as you cum around his cock. the grip you have on him is enough to send him into his own orgasm, not bothering to pull out and cumming deep inside your cunt.

[whispering nervously] hey i feel like this is the equivalent of throwing a beehive at a bear, but i genuinely do not understand what is going on with the latest queer label discourse,,, why is calling urself a mspec gay/bi lesbian/etc such an issue ?

#i am afraid that i do not understand why ppl are so against it #sexuality is weird and gender is like... such a vague concept #a person can have a very strong knowledge of their own gender ofc yes #but why are we saying NO YOU CAN'T BE ATTRACTED TO XYZ IF YOU'RE XYZ LABEL #like. okay. but. consider. maybe a lesbian falls in love w someone who identifies as a guy sometimes #and maybe that lesbian IDs as a lesbian in a gender way along w their sexuality #so i think bisexual lesbian actually makes sense but idk man #also. i dont rly understand why it matters so much. yes words have meaning but. idk. it just. doesnt seem like a big deal to me?#does anyone have insight bc i am so confused seeing ppl be so militantly against it and putting it in DNI banners on posts and stuff #is this one of those things where some queer ppl get upset bc other queer ppl are queer in a not easily labelled way?#or is this like. an actual issue.....#i personally am not a lesbian nor a gay man. though Kam is a lesbian and Lake is a gay man but those two don't front v often #so i as a part don't get a say maybe. but Kam and Lake both shrugged at me when i asked them why ppl get so angry abt this #so . i think perhaps . we are all lost on why ppl are upset abt this LMFAO #TURNING RBS OFF SO DM ME/REPLY/INBOX if u want to engage LOL i dont want to get harassed because i am asking a question 👍#being called a sq*aw and a cracker within the same week was funny to have happen once. not rly funny more than that though lmao #pippen needs 2nd breakfast

Hi-hi, I saw you still answer asks about your WIP titles and I gotta ask about both ugly catYuan and wenzhou meet as teenagers? Also, I'm so pumped for you to start posting another fic because I LOVE your snippets and would be all over your current long fic if trans pregnancy wasn't a trigger

Also your mud!lian snippet was enough to finally get me into tgcf and I'm Suffering

aww thank you so much, thats so kind! im really excited to start posting more of my wips hehe ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ there are definitely gonna be an influx pretty soon because of some fills for fandom trumps hate and SVSSSAction. it means so much to me that you're reading! (,,> ᴗ <,,) and LMAO im so glad it hooked u into hualian hell

UGLY CATYUAN FIC is. almost finished actually! its probs gonna be the next non-prompt fic i post. another snippet is here!

summary: Weak creatures get snuffed out. It's not only the way life is, it's cosmic justice—those that are too weak to survive get culled by those stronger than them. Nature asserts itself.

In his hands, the kitten is small and wretched and too weak to survive. Shen Jiu takes it home.

Xiao Jiu obviously doesn’t care about that, or even notice. He gives everything a single harsh once over, and paces around the receiving room before whirling on Yue Qingyuan. He marches up to him, extends his hands, and Yue Qingyuan braces for a shove. Instead, he feels something small, warm and shivering be pressed to his chest. “Fix it.” He lets go before Yue Qingyuan has fully registered what is being given to him, but thankfully his own hands come up to catch and cradle the small body before it can be dropped. He looks down at the little kitten. The kitten looks up at him… or possibly to either side of him at once. He delicately taps one small ear with a finger and watches the way it twitches. The kitten is clean of blood, but it is damp and miserable looking. He raises it to his nose— it smells of urine and fear. “What does it need?” Xiao Jiu’s face is contorted in frustration. “The stupid thing wants to starve. I’ve been trying to feed it anything for two days. It’s going to die.” He drops down at Yue Qingyuan’s tea table and looks up at him. Two sets of eyes watching him, asking him for help, in their own ways. Something like fireworks are set off in his lungs. He cups his hands around the kitten and nods. “It won’t,” he says. Xiao Jiu scoffs, and turns away. —— The kitten, indeed, will not eat. That’s alright. Yue Qingyuan is used to keeping alive little, starving things.

Babs, Bruce and Danny in my dpxdc merfolk au!!!

argh, plz excuse the poorly edited photo lmao- lost a lot of detail TvT

Babs has her info Here. But this is her design! I’m not actually entirely sure if any of these designs are final, i might tweak them, but here she is! I gave her necklaces.

Bruce is based on a leatherback sea turtle! The spots aren’t actually super accurate to a leatherback’s underside, but if you look at it a little harder... you may find a fun little easter egg. It’s subtle... or at least i tried to make it that way. (If people don’t get it i’ll explain in a rb lol) Did you know that leatherback sea turtles can be up to 880 pounds? Idk what that is in metric but that’s roughly 7 and a half Bahfevs. They’re also much more triangular/less round than other turtles, so I reflected that in his design. And ofc, Bruce and Damian are both sea turtles bc they’re related. But they’re different sea turtle species so it doesn’t make much sense. Who gives a flip. What’s Talia, you ask? To that I say: 🤷‍♀️

(Side note: apparently, I’ve conditioned myself so I can’t draw nuetral expressions. It’s gotta have some emotion or else it looks wrong, and it feels natural to always have something going on there. So... drawing Stoic McStoicface here was a pain in the penis. He kinda has an expression anyway lol)

Danny is based on a ghost knife fish! I’ll be honest, i didn’t even know these existed until I looked up “ghost fish” in the hopes of finding something thematic. But then... omg! They’re black with little white accents? Like Danny’s design? And they have cool, funky bodies? AND they produce electricity!?? That’s so FKING COOL! I’ll have to do more research, but so far i’m pretty sure they don’t produce enough electricity to hurt someone. They are related to electric eels though! I first learned that electric eels were knife fish and not true eels when I was researching the moray eel for Duke. Funny how that connects!

Danny’s story under the cut!

Heehoo!

Okay so basically: Danny went diving to gather pearls because he wanted to make his parents happy/proud. While he was diving, His foot got caught in a rock and he couldn’t get it out. He panicked and he begged— to who? God, maybe? The universe, or the ocean? Maybe just begging fate or any higher power that could be out there, he doesn’t know. His only prayer was “Don’t let me drown!”. Unbeknownst to him, one of the pearls he’d grabbed was a magic, wish granting pearl. They’re rare enough that humans don’t even have legends of them... but the merfolk do ;).

The pearl took his very non-specific wish and decided to give him a tail and gills. He swam back up in a panic, and saw his new tail. Of course, this is a very horrifying thing to happen. But in less than a minute... it was already starting to dry off. As it dried, it turned back into skin.

Now, Danny has to be extremely careful not to get his legs or hair wet when he’s near people, because he’ll turn back into a merboy.

i... probably should have given him a shirt? He’d be wearing it, right? But i also did need to see what I was doing with that fin thing lol. I mean, a shirt would get annoying with that fin- he’d probably take it off. Tbh he’d probably have it off when swimming in general? Idk.

So: funny thing that happened when I was drawing Danny:

A first grader came up to me while I had it open on my desk, and she was like:

“Oh my god, that’s so good! Like, how did you even draw that?”

so I was like: “Oh thank you! ❤️”

And I think she asked again “How did you even draw that?”

so I was a little confused on how to answer, so I said:

“Well, I used my pencil...” and held up my pencil—

and then she got distracted by a spinny chair.

She’s so precious omg 🥰
