Desires and Deception: Snake Operation Part 1

The thunderous cheers of the crowd faded away as I pumped my fists and struck a final victorious pose. The gleaming trophy for first place felt heavy in my curled arm, the stage lights casting a sheen over every ridge and valley of muscle on my competition-ready physique.

It was a moment of triumph that sent a rush of adrenaline coursing through my veins, amplified by the electric atmosphere of the event. From the front row, I could see Giovanni Salvatore on his feet applauding, his gaze fixed intensely on me. The plan was working flawlessly.

As the crowd dispersed within the opulent hotel hall, their murmurs echoed like distant thunderclaps. Since the bodybuilding contest was over, I handed my trophy to a member of my staff for safekeeping.

Descending from the stage, I navigated through the thinning clusters of guests, making my way toward Giovanni. With a respectful nod and acknowledging the presence of his vigilant guards, I approached Giovanni for a conversation. The faint scent of smoke mingled with his perfume, teasing my senses.

"Mr. Salvatore, thank you for gracing us with your presence tonight. Your support means a lot," I said, my voice carrying an air of unwavering confidence.

"Leave us," he instructed his guards. With a subtle gesture, they retreated, granting us a semblance of privacy amid the crowd.

"Congratulations for winning, Derek. Your dedication to your passion is truly admirable," Giovanni remarked, his gaze fixed on mine.

"I can tell there's more to you than meets the eye. What's your story, if you don't mind me asking?"

The question hung in the air, stirring a mixture of nerves and excitement within me. The truth was, I wasn't actually Derek Steele, the fitness influencer and professional bodybuilder.

My real name is Alex, a specialized undercover agent tasked with taking down Giovanni's powerful crime empire.

Wearing a high-tech full body muscle suit that clung to me like a second skin, I matched Derek's physical appearance and exuded the confidence of someone who had elaborately planned this moment. Having trained rigorously for over a month, I captured Derek's personality and mastered his mannerisms perfectly to seduce Giovanni.

The real Derek is in our custody and wasn't even aware that I had assumed his identity for this dangerous assignment.

“I have many stories," I replied, my tone measured and calculated. "Some would say I'm a businessman, while others might call me a visionary.

Giovanni raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Visionary, eh? Do you have a business proposal for me?"

Before I had the chance to respond, Giovanni's hand made a swift move, targeting the bulge of my crotch under the shimmering fabric. Instinctively, I held back just in time, subtly shifting away from his advance while keeping my composure intact.

"Indeed, I do. But perhaps we should discuss it in a more... private setting."

"Of course," he replied smoothly. "Follow me to the penthouse. We can talk business there."

Giovanni and I made our way to the luxurious elevator together with Marco, Giovanni's most trusted bodyguard. The doors closed behind us, and we ascended towards an exclusive floor reserved for the Mafia boss, my heart racing with anticipation.

Marco frisked me to ensure my safety at the suite. Upon disembarking on the 47th floor, Marco guided us through a labyrinth of corridors until we stood before an imposing set of intricate glass doors. There, Marco left us alone before the entrance to the suite.

As Giovanni pushed the doors open, I was greeted by a stunning display of wealth. The interior was a masterclass in elegance and design, with opulent furnishings that whispered tales of far-flung travels and exquisite taste.

"Make yourself comfortable, Derek," Giovanni said, gesturing towards the plush seating arrangements that adorned the room. "Would you care for a drink?"

I declined politely, my focus unwavering as his gaze locked onto the contours of my toned muscles.

Giovanni poured himself a drink, the clink of ice against glass punctuating the silence between us.

"Come, Derek," he said, his voice low and commanding. “Before we go further with this discussion...let me have a taste of that body first,” he continued, a smirk playing on his lips.

My pulse quickened at his words, a mixture of apprehension and determination lurking beneath the veneer of seduction.

Giovanni wasted no time in unbuckling his belt, allowing his pants to fall to his ankles. He then shed his navy blue blazer and removed his white polo shirt. The sight of his toned muscles beneath the fabric sent a ripple of awareness through me, reminding me of the dangerous game we were playing.

With a nod and a carefully crafted smile, I watched as he walked confidently toward the master bedroom, leaving me to follow in his wake.

The air thickened with anticipation as I crossed the threshold into the dimly lit bedroom. Giovanni was already lying on the bed, beckoning me over with a devilish smile when I entered. His eyes gleamed with a hunger that mirrored my own, but beneath the surface, I remained cool and composed, a master of deception playing my part to perfection.

“Strip and dance for me, Derek,” he purred, turning on the music.

I removed my glittered posing trunks, revealing my bare ass to Giovanni. He admired my physique with a hungry gaze — lingering on my rippled, broad arms, tracing the sculpted depth of my chest, and the tight contours of my chiseled abs.

Then, he instructed me to strut around the room. Complying, I showcased my muscular form, swaying to the music, his eyes tracking every move I made.

Each step I took was meticulously calculated, every word crafted with deliberate care. To Giovanni, I was the willing prey, the unsuspecting victim ensnared by his seductive charms.

He fancied himself as the hunter in this game, but little did he know, I was the one orchestrating the dance between predator and prey. Everything was unfolding exactly as planned.

"Dance for me like no one's watching," he said with his eyes fixated on my movements. I continued my performance with the feeling of excitement building inside me.

Caught in the thrill, I was abruptly stopped by Giovanni's command. "Let me have a closer look at your cock," he demanded, his attention fixated on my crotch.

I hesitated momentarily but then turned around to reveal my aroused state. In reality, it was a realistic prosthetic, designed to cover my own, its tip filled with a sedative resembling semen, poised to incapacitate him upon ingestion. The substance had begun to leak, and I needed to act quickly before it became noticeable.

“Oh, you're feeling excited, huh? You've got quite a nice cock there,” he remarked, his eyes gleaming with desire. I looked down, pretending to be flushed with embarrassment.

“I wanted to give you a treat,” I replied hesitantly, knowing that the plan was going as anticipated but also aware of the risks involved. As Giovanni continued to observe me, he noticed the clear liquid dripping from my erect cock. His eyes widened with surprise and amusement.

“Are you dripping precum? That's a lot,” he exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with delight.

“Yeah, it happens sometimes when I'm really horny,” I replied with a grin, knowing that the ruse was working. Giovanni was completely taken in by my charade.

"I want to taste it," he said with a wicked grin. Before I could say anything, he got on his knees and took my erect cock into his mouth, sucking it with undeniable enthusiasm.

He sucked with a hunger that was almost primal, his tongue swirling around the shaft as his lips engulfed the tip. I looked down at him, my heart pounding in my chest as I wondered if the sedative was taking effect.

“Oh my god... you taste so good,” he mumbled, his words slightly slurred.

To my surprise, Giovanni showed no signs of slowing down. In fact, he seemed to be more energized than before.

Confused and somewhat panicked, I decided to just go with the flow and see where things led. The sedative continued to flow out of my artificial cock, dripping down Giovanni's chin and onto the floor.

I just remembered that I needed to ensure enough of the sedative had entered his bloodstream to knock him out, as the effect would take a while. So, I continued to thrust into him with full force.

He didn't seem to notice or care, lost in the pleasure of tasting my synthetic cum. After what seemed like an eternity of passionate sucking, Giovanni eventually released my cock from his mouth, allowing some of the cum to drip onto the floor. He wiped his mouth, then scooped up some of it and rubbed it onto his own throbbing erection.

“Lean forward and let me lick your ass,” he demanded with a hungry look in his eyes.

Playing along to continue the charade, I obliged, bending forward to offer myself to him. Giovanni, eager and impatient, quickly spread my cheeks and dove in, his face pressing against me. The sensation of his tongue, licking and nibbling at my entrance, sent shivers of pleasure through me.

"Mmmmm... this is so good," he murmured against me, his breath warm against my skin, his voice vibrating with savory pleasure.

The pleasure was overwhelming, causing me to moan and writhe. My entire body trembled on the edge of release. Giovanni, sensing how close I was, redoubled his efforts, his tongue dancing over my most sensitive spot with a precision that promised nothing but ecstasy.

After it was over and his whispers faded into silence, I stood up and turned to see the satisfied expression on Giovanni’s face.

"Fuck, you taste so good, buddy," Giovanni said, his smile beaming with pleasure.

The way Giovanni looked at me, it was strange—his mannerisms, his choice of words, even his actions seemed off from the Giovanni I had meticulously researched for over a month. It was as if I was dealing with a completely different person. This realization sent a ripple of alarm through me; the sedative hadn't taken effect yet, and I found myself scrambling mentally for another way to keep this unfamiliar Giovanni engaged.

"What's wrong? Are you okay? You seem a bit... distant," Giovanni's voice, laced with concern, broke through my thoughts.

I shook my head, plastering a practiced smile on my face to dispel any doubts he might harbor. "No, I'm fine. Just a little tired from the competition, that's all," I lied, hoping my voice sounded more convincing than I felt.

"Well, we can always take things slow tonight. No need to rush," he replied, his smile disarming.

"Thanks, Mr. Salvatore," I said, offering a gesture of respect and a momentary mask for my racing thoughts.

"Just call me Daddy," he insisted, his eyes softening, reducing the distance between us.

"Of course, Daddy," I acquiesced, my heart pounding not just from fear but also from the adrenaline and the sheer awkwardness of the situation.

"Maybe this will help you relax," he said as he wrapped his arm around my neck and leaned closer for a kiss.

As our lips touched, I pressed on, letting the kiss deepen, letting myself get lost in the illusion of passion. For now, I had to keep up the act, to play the part of the willing participant.

At that moment, a sudden memory flashed through my mind. I recalled that medications administered through the rectal mucosa can result in faster absorption into the bloodstream. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck me.

Without raising suspicion, I discreetly activated the hidden mechanism in my realistic prosthetic cock, releasing the backup sedative stored in its artificial balls. This action also caused my own erection to harden, and I made sure he could feel it growing firmer against his thigh as our bodies came closer together.

"Oh my god, your cock feels so fucking huge!" Giovanni exclaimed, his hand reaching down to grasp my shaft. "It's so much bigger than before when I sucked you."

"That's because it wasn't quite ready when you sucked me earlier," I answered back, taking advantage of the opportunity to continue my charade.

Giovanni grinned widely, his hands stroking and gripping my throbbing member. His touch was electric, sending shivers down my spine. He slid lower until his fingers reached the base of my shaft, cupping my balls gently. With a smirk, he teased me further, "Do you want to fuck me again?"

My heart skipped a beat as this was exactly what I needed. My plan had worked perfectly. Nodding with feigned eagerness, I whispered, "Yes, please," in response.

With a mischievous glint in his eye, Giovanni walked toward the bed, lay down backward, and spread his legs wide open. His thick, muscular thighs gleamed in the low light of the room. His powerful arms held his head steady while his hands rested on his hips, inviting me to come closer.

"Come here, buddy," he called out, his voice filled with anticipation, "Show me how badly you want this."

I obliged, moving closer to the edge of the bed and slowly lowering my body onto his, aligning our groins. With determination, I seized the waistband of Giovanni’s briefs and yanked them down. Then, I grabbed his legs and spread them apart, exposing his tight hole. I paused for a moment, allowing myself to take in the view. Taking a deep breath, I focused on the task at hand.

Giovanni moaned softly as I rubbed my tip against his entrance. "Go ahead," he urged me. "Give it to me. Fuck me real hard."

Then I felt something warm and sticky gush out of my dickhead. A small amount of liquid oozed out of the tip of my cock and dripped onto his hole. Perfect timing.

I thrust forward, pushing my shaft deep inside him. Giovanni gasped as I entered him. I began to move slowly at first, then gradually picked up speed. Our bodies moved in rhythmic harmony, the sound of skin slapping against skin filling the air.

"Deeper, buddy, deeper. Fuck me harder," he urged, his breathing becoming heavier with every thrust.

I couldn't believe how good it felt to be inside him, the warmth and wetness of his insides enveloping me like a velvet glove. As I continued thrusting, I knew that with every stroke, more of the sedative would enter his body.

"Oh god, yeah! Fuck me harder!" Giovanni cried out, his breath coming in short pants. "Fill me up, fill me up with your hot seed!"

I increased the pace, slamming my hips into him with renewed vigor. I could feel my cock pulsing inside him, delivering the final dose of sedative directly into his bloodstream. With one last powerful thrust, I released a flood of liquid into his insides, ensuring that soon he would be rendered helpless by the sedative coursing through his veins.

As I withdrew my shaft from his body, I could see the dazed look in his eyes. He was already beginning to feel the effects of the sedative. I knew it wouldn’t be long before he would be completely under my control.

"Hey, let's switch positions," he suggested. "This time, I want to ride you."

I complied, lying down on the bed and spreading my legs wide open. Giovanni climbed on top of me, positioning himself between my legs. I watched as he straddled me, his strong hands holding my shoulders firmly.

"Are you ready?" he asked, his voice barely audible above the sound of our breathing.

I nodded, closing my eyes as he lowered himself onto me. I could feel his weight pressing down on me, his hot breath tickling my ear as he kissed along my jawline. I moaned softly, enjoying the sensation of being dominated by such a powerful man.

Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind. How do I know that this isn't some kind of trick? What if this isn't the real Giovanni? What if there's someone else controlling him right now? The possibility sent chills down my spine.

"Who are you?" I demanded, opening my eyes to stare at him.

Giovanni froze, his eyes widening in surprise. "What do you mean?" he stammered.

"You don't sound like him," I said, trying to maintain my composure despite the rising panic in my chest.

"How did you kno—" he asked, his voice trembling slightly.

Before he could say anything else, I pushed him away from me, rolling onto my side. I lunged towards him and grabbed his face, pulling at it forcefully.

To my shock, what I believed to be his skin stretched and gave way under my fingers, revealing it to be a realistic mask. Beneath the mask was not the familiar features of Giovanni but a face that did not match the body, implying he was also wearing a realistic muscle suit.

As the full effect of the sedative took hold, the figure before me could no longer maintain his ruse. He slumped to the ground as his body surrendered and plunged into unconsciousness.

"What's going on? What the hell is this?" I muttered, examining the mask with a mix of frustration and disbelief. "Where's the real Giovanni?"

To be continued . . .

The note that I put into the Western Wall

Oh, those steps. I am talking about the steps that lead from the Jewish Quarter in Jerusalem, down to the Western Wall plaza. This week marks the 47th anniversary of the first time that I descended those steps, and then ascended them again. It was 47 years ago, this week, that I first came to Jerusalem to begin my studies for the rabbinate. Since then, I have made more than fifty trips to…

Decoding Secrets of signs - Vedic Astrology

Learning the energy of each sign is not only critical but essential for every astrologer to master the zodiac; you should be able to predict using the qualities and energy of each sign on the blank chart with year-wise events; use the energy of that sign to predict for example -Pisces.

Pisces is the natural 12th house of the Zodiac- It is a sign of giving out; this is a sign of sleep. When we are sleeping, we rely on god with close eyes that we will be able to wake up again. Similarly, wherever Pisces is in your chart, you will have a habit of trusting people blindly. That is why Aquarius ascendant trusts family members blindly, even when cheated.

Pisces is a sign of giving, so it will be difficult for Pisces ascendants to ask for their own money and salary increment as they are natural givers in the family. In contrast, Taurus ascendants will give their whole salary to someone as Pisces is in the 11th house of salary, and for Taurus, cooking and other skills come naturally without much effort as they have mastered them in a past life.

For Aquarius ascendant – the 45th year will be the year when natives will have troubles related to property and finances in life; the 37th year is a highly dreadful year for these natives, while the best of the year for Aquarius is 35th and major transformation in life happens at 24.

You can predict every year’s good and evil for each ascendant based on a blank chart, such as Gemini is the sign of communication happening in 5th house entertainment. Gemini is a sign which is known for mimicry and signing. Hence, these people enjoy mimicking other people, and even when they want to marry someone in a closed circle amongst relatives or neighbours, the plan will be cannibalised due to the father.

The challenging aspect of life is unsettling home and continuous travel in work; what changes them in life is the death of close ones from incurable diseases, but these people don’t give up easily in their profession even when their personal life suffers due to Job- All the movie characters of supercop police we see one thing in common amongst them is that their spouse is not happy with them as they are too much involved in work and want to solve the impossible.

This is a story of every Aquarius ascendant, even when no one likes them in the company or home. However, they still get going in the same job when everyone else will tell them to leave and move on; why are you doing such hard work even after years? now, you can see that for cancer ascendants, people want to associate but only in the background, not in the open, as people want to take benefit but somehow don’t want to accept that they are linked to these people. One of the famous politicians who did a lot for the country, and till now, when people are using the same facility created by him, don’t miss a chance to abuse him, Abusing at a point where they can’t even defend themselves or kids of cancer ascendant has to listen for deeds of their parents again one side of the story, no one will dare to say it openly in front of cancer ascendants when they are alive on in front of them that is why Cancerians need to be clear with this fact.

The age of 41 is critical for cancer ascendants for health, 33 for profession and 32nd for the good or bad name; 47th for father and 48th is one of the defining years for cancer natives. If you look at most of the cancer ascendant charts, these predictions will match.

First, start with learning the energy of each sign in detail, make predictions related to each ascendant, and then go to the timing of events.

Ventilation

I need to write a bit about myself this time. Its been a long time since i started to write journal entries inside this , for me at least digital, journal that i hope and beg is seen by ANYBODY. Living in basically nowhere is a pain in the ass to be fairly honest, it may be what i have to do out of personal reasons i will not name. Doesn’t mean that i don’t feel a void in me that begs to be filled. I mean at this point i have lived for more then over 7.894.413.129 Centuries at this point (i lost count this is just a rough estimate from how many worlds i have been too and how many lives i have lived , take it with a grain of salt). Honestly its a miracle i am not absolute dead. I have seen too many of my old friends do just that. Felicie would have probably been close if i didn’t interfere, it was her last loop given by the 47th. I am not quiet happy how it worked out for us in the end, not being able to find any concrete weakness of Kevin's artificial anomaly , seeing how it even was able to mutate to control more then 25 people near our endgame goal of conquering the inhabitable side of earth. Not a elegant victory , a victory nonetheless. I am not sure if i want to log it yet since it really i wasn’t able to find a weakness that one could reliable abuse but i am absolutely certain i will see it again. Kevin seems to know a lot more about me then i initially thought, because he didn’t just know of JLS, he knew a lot of my contacts from the loopers bureau, even the ones like Felicie that have stayed off the grid for a long enough time to be forgotten. My priority may not be on him for now but that is only the case because i feel like he will inadvertently find me while i go and look for the shards i need to complete my goal. If he has come to the conclusion i have come to is unknown as of yet , the likelihood should be at a near 0 since i have come to learn for what the shards are used for and where to find them while the rest of the bureau don’t even entertain the idea of their existence. Fools. In the end the alchemist will prove them wrong , lets see who will be laughing then you ignoramuses. I have been able to surpass my old peers so much since i cut myself away from the 47th ascendant, maybe one day they will understand just how much she manipulates them all. The next entry i will log another of my old run ins while shard hunting. I think most of the people here will like it a lot.

Pros of having a semi-broken office chair:

Rocking

Infinite stim material

Cons of having a semi-broken office chair:

Your life will flash before your eyes and your heart will fuse with your stomach every time you attempt to sit down or stand up. You know nothing but fear, nay, terror. God is dead and has been killed by your own hubris. How dare you deign to think you can Stand or Sit freely. Pathetic.

After Action Report - The Third Trial

AFTER ACTION REPORT - OPERATION FALLEN EAGLE - 05 FEB 628

On the evening of 05 Feb 628, on or around 1800 hours, members of the 47th Infantry Regiment were remanded to the inner sanctum of the Alliance holdings in Oribos for an operation pre-brief regarding our activities within the realm of Bastion. At that time, all members present were given the final task for the evening.

The final Maldraxxi foothold was located in a location surrounded on all sides by natural elevation. In this instance, a direct approach would have been tantamount to suicide, as the Maldraxxi command had at that point, anticipated the attack by our ground forces. Instead, a plan was devised to use the higher elevation to our advantage. Having brought some extra MK-1 GLIDERS on this last supply run, it was decided that each member would be given one as a precaution for the evenings operations. The enclosed annexes to this report detail the layout of the camp in a succinct manner.

Utilizing the transport network allotted to us by the Kyrian, we made the journey in quick time, and quickly divided into paired teams to begin our operations. KNT Farnal, leading CPL's Goldmane, Eastwind, and MSG Hempstead, quickly began their forward scouting to confirm previously received intelligence regarding the camp. MSG Derrinar, leading CPL Solborne, PVT Hoglund, and RCT Firehearth, quickly established a defensive point on the incline leading up to the scouting party, dealing with the stray guards on patrol. In this, they were entirely successful from preventing any additional stress on the scouting party.

At KNT Farnal's confirmation of the intelligence, a plan of action was formed. Intelligence was confirmed that the Maldraxxi had unwittingly built magical traps into the perimeters and strategic points of their camp that could be utilized entirely to our advantage. Should we utilize any form of explosives against them, we might be able to set off a chain reaction to blow the entire chain of magical runes at once. RCT Firehearth, confident in our ability to use hand grenades to do so, provided the bulk of our firepower to pull this plan off. It was with KNT Farnal's plan, and RCT Firehearth's provisions that the vast majority of the camp was devastated following the series of explosions. When the dust had settled, using the MK-1 Gliders, all personnel conducted an overhead, aerial invasion of the camp and successfully cleared the remaining enemies with little trouble.

It should be noted that the Maldraxxi leader, "Vanni Jenno" and our Kyrian watcher Aeaces were mortal companions in their mortal life. As Vanni Jenno was killed upon the field of battle, we have no confirmation of whether this death will impact relations with the Kyrian later down the line. Shortly thereafter, Harpagos, the Kyrian Ascended who had given the 47th their original tasks returned to us once more with a proclamation that we had indeed been successful. To quote; 'You were given three tasks to complete. Three tasks to demonstrate our most venerated principles. The Courage to face your enemy. The Wisdom to guide you. Humility to complete the task without complaint. Loyalty to those who asked such a favour. And finally Purity of heart by completing those tasks in good faith.'

As a token of their allegiance, the 47th have been presented with a small vesper. Should we need their assistance further down the line, we simply must ring the vesper and wait out for their arrival. Last notes; from the field of battle a few items were brought back for further study;

(i) Maldraxxi armaments and weaponry - Cleared for curses prior to leaving Bastion by KNT Farnal - SGT Goldmane will be studying these at length to determine the properties of such weapons.

(ii) Maldraxxian biological samples -- Bound by KNT Brightmaul to protect all persons from any biological contaminant. I, KNT Brightmaul will be conducting further research on it to determine exactly what forms of life we are looking at, and whether or not there are any concerns regarding Maldraxxus in future.

via Politics – FiveThirtyEight

Graphics by Ella Koeze

When Angelica Rubio was a little girl growing up near the border between New Mexico and Mexico, she had a dream that was both grand and circumscribed: She wanted to be governor of her state. “I grew up thinking about political power and what it meant — every year my family would watch the president’s State of the Union address and I would translate it for my parents,” Rubio said. “Most kids were probably dreaming about being president but for some reason, being governor of New Mexico seemed like the right amount of power for me.”

Rubio, who identifies as Chicanx, hasn’t made it to the governor’s mansion — yet. She was elected to the state legislature in 2016, and said she’ll be running for a third term this year. But Rubio’s childhood goal, as lofty as it seems, might be more achievable for a woman of color from New Mexico than any other state in the union. According to Rutgers University’s Center for American Women and Politics, two of the three women of color who have ever been elected governor are from New Mexico, including the current governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham. (You can hear more about Lujan Grisham’s thoughts about what it’s like to run for office as a woman in FiveThirtyEight’s “When Women Run” project.)

Likewise, nearly one-third of the women of color who have served in any statewide executive office — a category that includes lieutenant governor, secretary of state and other posts that frequently serve as stepping stones to the governorship — are from New Mexico. It also has a relatively high percentage of women of color in the state legislature, compared to other states: 16 percent of statehouse seats are held by non-white women, a share topped by only five other states.

These disparities might seem like a fluke — a strange political accident that made New Mexico into an especially friendly place for women of color who want to run the state. But experts and New Mexico politicians alike told me that there’s no secret recipe. Instead, there are four main factors that built on each other to help boost the electoral prospects of women of color:

A long history of women of color serving in lower-level statewide offices;

Large shares of Latinos and Native Americans in the state electorate;

Shifting political winds that have turned the state bluer;

A recent concerted effort to get more women of color to run for office.

There are 20 states — including some of the nation’s biggest, like California and New York — that have never been led by a female governor. Twenty-seven states, meanwhile, have never had a woman of color serve in any statewide office, and New Mexico is one of only 11 states in which women of color have held multiple statewide offices.1

But when it comes to political leadership by women of color, New Mexico has pretty much always been a pioneer. Women of color have been serving in elected office in New Mexico for almost as long as the state has existed, starting with Soledad Chávez Chacón, who was elected secretary of state in 1922 — only a decade after New Mexico was admitted as the country’s 47th state. Before Chacon’s election, New Mexico had been among the more politically conservative states in the West when it came to women’s suffrage, refusing to extend women the right to vote until after the passage of the 19th Amendment. But after Chacón was elected, New Mexican women — including women of color — continued to ascend into political leadership. The position of secretary of state was held by a Latina throughout the 1930s, and 17 women were elected to the state legislature between 1922 and 1934.

That kind of long history can help women in several different ways: It provides political role models for women thinking about running for office, and makes the idea of women holding positions that are traditionally associated with masculine characteristics feel more normal. Studies have shown that voters more readily elect women to serve in roles that are inherently collaborative, like legislator, perhaps because it fits more neatly with gendered stereotypes about women’s strengths and weaknesses. The traits that tend to be prized in executive leadership roles like governor — like assertiveness or decisiveness — run directly counter to gendered expectations about women, which can make it even harder for women to be taken seriously as candidates when they run for those positions. “It’s powerful if you can just get voters used to seeing women’s names on the ballot for statewide leadership roles,” said Jason Windett, a political science professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte who studies gender and state politics.

For many years, though, women of color were elected only to one statewide role in New Mexico — secretary of state. That didn’t change until more than 70 years after Chacón was elected. Christine Sierra, a professor emeritus at the University of New Mexico who studies gender, race and politics, doesn’t think it’s an accident that for decades the de facto position for female leaders was a role that includes the word “secretary” in the title. “We might have had women in leadership for a long time, but there was one specific place that was clearly acceptable for them,” she said.

But in recent years there has been a breakthrough, Sierra and others told me, fueled by the fact that New Mexico is a state dominated by racial minorities — in particular, Latinos and Native Americans. According to the Census Bureau, nearly half of New Mexico’s population is Latino or Hispanic and an additional 11 percent is American Indian or Alaska Native, making it one of the few states in which a majority of its residents are non-white. The Latino population in particular has grown over the past few decades, meaning a Chicanx or Latina candidate like Rubio or Stephanie Garcia Richard, who was elected as the first female state land commissioner in 2018, share a similar ethnic background as a decent chunk of the state. In her 2018 campaign, Garcia Richard said, she deliberately emphasized her family history as a way of showing her connections to different local communities. “I’m half Hispanic, half Anglo, from a ranching family with ties to southwestern and eastern parts of the state,” she said. “I wanted voters to understand all of the ways my candidacy reflects New Mexico as a place.”

New Mexico politics has also become increasingly dominated by Democrats, which may have helped some women of color, as women of color are disproportionately likely to run — and win — on the Democratic side of the ticket. But recruiting women of color has also become a higher priority for groups that aim to propel more women into elected office, like Emerge, a national Democratic organization that opened an office in New Mexico in 2005. Ashley Sanderson, Emerge New Mexico’s executive director, says that over the past 14 years, 350 women — including Rubio and Garcia Richard — have gone through their six-month training program. Of those, over half have run for office. And according to Sanderson, over half of the program members are also women of color.

And according to research by Sierra and others, simply getting women of color to throw their hat in the ring is a crucial step, because when they do run, they win at higher rates than either white women or minority men. “It was something of a surprising finding because women and people of color are both at the margins in politics,” she said. “So you might expect women of color to have two strikes against them. Instead, we found that in many cases, that dual identity is actually an advantage.”

Windett said that he wouldn’t be surprised if the trend toward electing more women of color in New Mexico accelerates in 2020 and beyond — particularly now that two Latina women have served back-to-back as governor. “Unlike a member of Congress, the governor is an extremely visible and powerful figure who is also in the state seven days a week,” Windett said. “That means if the governor is a woman who wants to encourage more women to participate, she can have an outsize influence on candidate recruitment, fundraising, building networks of women in politics.”

None of this means that New Mexico is a political utopia for women of color. “I’m reminded of my gender every time I walk past a wall of pictures of people who have held my office, because it’s just one long row of men,” Garcia Richard said. When she started her job last year, Garcia Richard said that she took pains to fill her leadership team with women, but added, “Our expertise is constantly questioned — mine and theirs.”

But she thinks that despite these challenges, voters in her state and others want more leaders like her — which means she hopes that New Mexico will continue to elect more women of color, but also eventually cease to be an outlier. “Voters really want to see people who look like them, who share their experiences, in positions of power,” she said. “We may be ahead of the curve here in New Mexico, but we don’t have a monopoly on that hunger.”

Fic titles: ‘assault and low battery’, ‘under the radar, under the knife’, ‘would you like to die again?’, ‘the endling’

“Assault and Low Battery”

Deadlock-era McCree and Ashe fic. Ashe and Jesse have pulled off one of their most successful Deadlock heists yet! But Bob’s acting a little… out of it. Turns out he’s low on power. Can the Deadlock Gang evade the authorities with a delirous 2-ton Omnic?

“Under the Radar, Under the Knife”

Following my headcanon that Moira’s face is kind of fucked up under her silver eye mask, Moira opts for some surgery while in Oasis to better hide the effects of her own experimentation and the Zurich explosion. Of course… surgeries are complicated and messy, and she can’t have too many people knowing the extent of her own genetic experiments on herself. If she’s going to continue ascending through the social and scientific ranks of Oasis, she’s going to need a little bit of backup from Talon.

“Would You Like To Die Again?”

Post-Sombra and Widowmaker defection. Ana and Widowmaker have a long talk. They talk Gérard, Talon, and Widowmaker’s own decision to defect.

“The Endling”

Mei has managed to find the last of a once-thought-extinct species of marmoset, and because Aedan exists she knows Talon (Or more specifically, Moira) has cloning technology capable of saving the species. She has to team up with Aedan to break into Moira’s offices at Oasis! Aedan has his 47th existential crisis that week.

Today’s reading from the ancient book of Proverbs and book of Psalms

for August 5 of 2021 with Proverbs 5 and Psalm 5, accompanied by Psalm 47 for the 47th day of Astronomical Summer and Psalm 67 for day 217 of the year (now with the consummate book of 150 Psalms in its 2nd revolution this year)

[Proverbs 5]

[Avoid Promiscuity]

Listen to me, my son,

for I know what I’m talking about.

Listen carefully to my advice

so that wisdom and discernment will enter your heart,

and then the words you speak will express what you’ve learned.

Remember this:

The lips of a seductress seem sweet like honey,

and her smooth words are like music in your ears.

But I promise you this:

In the end all you’ll be left with is a bitter conscience.

For the sting of your sin will pierce your soul like a sword.

She will ruin your life, drag you down to death,

and lead you straight to hell.

She has prevented many from considering the paths of life.

Yes, she will take you with her where you don’t want to go,

sliding down a slippery road

and not even realizing where the two of you will end up!

Listen to me, young men,

and don’t forget this one thing I’m telling you—

run away from her as fast as you can!

Don’t even go near the door of her house

unless you want to fall into her seduction.

In disgrace you will relinquish your honor to another,

and all your remaining years will be squandered—

given over to the cruel one.

Why would you let strangers take away your strength

while the labors of your house go to someone else?

For when you grow old you will groan in anguish and shame

as sexually transmitted diseases consume your body.

And then finally you’ll admit that you were wrong and say,

“If only I had listened to wisdom��s voice

and not stubbornly demanded my own way,

because my heart hated to be told what to do!

Why didn’t I take seriously the warning of my wise counselors?

Why was I so stupid to think that I could get away with it?

Now I’m totally disgraced and my life is ruined!

I’m paying the price—

for the people of the congregation are now my judges.”

[Sex Reserved for Marriage]

My son, share your love with your wife alone.

Drink from her well of pleasure and from no other.

Why would you have sex with a stranger

or with anyone other than her?

Reserve this pleasure for you and her alone and do not share it with another.

Your sex life will be blessed

as you take joy and pleasure in the wife of your youth.

Let her breasts be your satisfaction,

and let her embrace intoxicate you at all times.

Be continually delighted and ravished with her love!

My son, why would you be exhilarated by an adulteress—

by embracing a woman who is not yours?

For God sees everything you do and his eyes are wide open

as he observes every single habit you have.

Beware that your sins don’t overtake you

and that the scars of your own conscience don’t

become the ropes that tie you up.

Those who choose wickedness die for lack of self-control,

for their foolish ways lead them astray,

carrying them away as hostages—

kidnapped captives robbed of destiny.

The Book of Proverbs, Chapter 5 (The Passion Translation)

[Psalm 5]

For the worship leader. A song of David accompanied by flutes.

Bend Your ear to me and listen to my words, O Eternal One;

hear the deep cry of my heart.

Listen to my call for help,

my King, my True God;

to You alone I pray.

In the morning, O Eternal One, listen for my voice;

in the day’s first light, I will offer my prayer to You and watch expectantly for Your answer.

You’re not a God who smiles at sin;

You cannot abide with evil.

The proud wither in Your presence;

You hate all who pervert and destroy what is good.

You destroy those with lying lips;

the Eternal detests those who murder and deceive.

Yet I, by Your loving grace,

am welcomed into Your house;

I will turn my face toward Your holy place

and fall on my knees in reverence before You.

O Eternal One, lead me in the path of Your righteousness

amidst those who wish me harm;

make Your way clear to me.

Their words cannot be trusted;

they are destructive to their cores.

What comes out of their mouths is as foul as a rotting corpse;

their words stink of flattery.

Find them guilty, O True God;

let their own devices bring them ruin.

Throw them out, and let them drown in the deluge of their sin,

for in revolt they brazenly spit in Your face.

But let those who run to You for safety be glad they did;

let them break out in joyful song.

May You keep them safe—

their love for You resounding in their hearts.

You, O Eternal, are the One who lays all good things in the laps of the right-hearted.

Your blessings surround them like a shield.

The Book of Psalms, Poem 5 (The Voice)

[Psalm 47]

For the worship leader. A song of the sons of Korah.

Clap your hands, all of you;

raise your voices joyfully and loudly.

Give honor for the True God of the universe;

Here’s why: The Eternal, the Most High, is awesome and deserves our great respect.

He is the great King over everything in this world.

He’s helped us win wars, suppressed our enemies,

and made nations bow at our feet.

He decides the extent of our inheritance and selects the land where we and our children will live,

for we are the pride of Jacob, the ones He loves.

[pause]

The True God ascends the throne acclaimed by shouts of the people.

The Eternal is announced by the blast of a trumpet.

Sing! Shout! Play instruments!

Praise our God and King; sing praises to Him who is worthy.

For He is the King of all the earth. Sing praise, all who can.

Put words to music, and then sing praises

At the feet of the God who sits on His holy throne,

ruling over all the nations.

All those with influence in this world—princes, kings, and satraps—

gather with those who follow Abraham’s God.

For these defenders belong to God

who reigns over the nations!

The Book of Psalms, Poem 47 (The Voice)

[Psalm 67]

For the worship leader. A song accompanied by strings.

May God pour His grace and blessings into us

and turn His face to shine His light on us.

[pause]

So all those on earth will learn to follow Your way

and see Your saving power come to redeem all nations.

May all people live to praise You, Our True God;

may all come to praise You.

May all nations celebrate together, singing joy-filled songs of praise to You

because You judge the people fairly

and give guidance to all the nations of the earth.

[pause]

May the people praise You with their whole hearts, O God;

may every man, woman, and child on the earth praise You.

The land has supplied a bountiful harvest,

and the True God, our God, has poured out His blessings to us all.

God is the source of our blessings;

may every corner of the earth respect and revere Him.

The Book of Psalms, Poem 67 (The Voice)

Catholic Daily Reading: 29 September 2020 - A Thousand Thousands Served Him

Tuesday 29th September 2020

Weekday (25) Vestment: White Today’s Rosary: The Sorrowful Mystery SAINTS MICHAEL, GABRIEL and RAPHAEL, archangels Feast ENUGU: Tomorrow is the 47th Anniversary of the episcopal ordination of Most Revd Anthony O. Gbuji, Bishop Emeritus, 30th September 1973. Today we celebrate the feast of the three archangels who are mentioned in the Bible by name: Michael, the protector of the people of God, Gabriel, the messenger of good news and Raphael, the healer in the book of Tobit. This feast recalls the dedication of the Basilica of Saint Michael the Archangel in Rome in the fifth century. Entrance Antiphon cf. Ps 103:20 Bless the Lord, all you his angels, mighty in power, fulfilling his word, and heeding his voice.

Collect

O God, who dispose in marvellous order ministries both angelic and human, graciously grant, that our life on earth may be defended by those who watch over us as they minister perpetually to you in heaven. Through our Lord...

FIRST READING

A thousand thousands served him. A reading from the Book of the Prophet Daniel (Daniel 7:9-10.13-14) As I looked, thrones were placed and one that was ancient of days took his seat; his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, its wheels were burning fire. A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; a thousand thousands served him, and ten thousand times ten thousands stood before him; the court sat in judgement, and the books were opened. I saw in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven there came one like a son of man, and he came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before him. And to him was given dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed. The word of the Lord. Or the following:

FIRST READING

Michael and his angels were fighting against the dragon. A reading from the Book of Revelation (Revelation 12:7-12a) War arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they were defeated and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world — he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God. And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death. Rejoice then, O heaven and you that dwell there in!” The word of the Lord.

RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm138: 1-2a.2bcd-3.4-5 (R. see lb)

R/. In the presence of the angels I praise you, O Lord. I thank you, Lord, with all my heart; you have heard the words of my mouth. In the presence of the angels I praise you. I bow down towards your holy temple. R. I give thanks to your name for your merciful love and your faithfulness. You have exalted your name and your promise overall. On the day I called, you answered me; you increased the strength of my soul. R. All earth’s kings shall thank you, O Lord, when they hear the words of your mouth. They shall sing of the ways of the Lord, How great is the glory of the Lord!” R.

ALLELUIA Psalm 103:21

Alleluia. Bless the Lord, all you his hosts, his ministers that do his will. Alleluia.

GOSPEL

You will see the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. A reading from the holy Gospel according to John (John 1:47-51) At that time: Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said of him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!” Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered him, “Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these.” And he said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.” The Gospel of the Lord.

Today’s Reflection

Today the church celebrates the archangels, Saints Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. Who are they and why do we celebrate them? They are the unseen and unsoiled spirits poised at God’s command. Michael means “God’s healing.” We remember Archangel Michael who battles Satan to affirm God’s supremacy. We remember Gabriel who delivered the good news to Mary. We remember Raphael for his work as a healer in the home of Tobit. We never walk alone; we are surrounded by millions of angels!

E-25 Yada Touka - Character Profile

If this were any other author out there, chances are Yada would've been left as a plain old fan service character. I'm glad that Matsui-sensei isn't one of those. While I'm at it, I like that Matsui has always gone for a modest and conservative approach with his female characters (cases like Genuine and Irina don't count), and able to shine on stage with the male characters too. The only other work I've seen in a long time that's cleaner in this regard is Sket Dance.

Main credits go to a certain Baidu forumer for translating the profiles from the Roll Book Time Databook to a language I understand. In accordance with her wish, her screenshots from the book will not be copied elsewhere, so refer to the following link to see extracts of Yada's profile:

Extracts of Yada's profile

And because this is a Japanese -> Chinese -> English translation for the most part, while I have endeavoured to keep things as accurate as possible, not everything may be successfully conveyed across

E-25 Yada Touka (矢田桃花) – adores B*tch-sensei, #1 nice body in Class E

“Reception and negotiation techniques… once we go out to society, wouldn’t these become our sharpest blades?"

Description

Having been taught about the “second blade” by Korosensei, she’s been diligently learning techniques in reception and negotiation. She’s been learning all sorts of things girls ought to be well-versed in from Irina, and now she’s just polishing her own girl power. Because she’s still in the stage of adolescence, her chest is still maturing, something the boys get restless about every day. (TN: “girl power” here is also Joushiryoku, which I’d explained in Okano’s Profile)

As the ones who handle negotiations, if Yada and Kurahashi are deployed, a mere one or two targets will be finished off quickly.

When it comes to the super slow tempo love development between her master B*tch-sensei and the unseducible Karasuma-sensei, she just supports it without making fun of it.

Code Name: Ponytail and Chest (ポニーテールと乳 / ponytail to chichi), Okajima’s idea

“Oho, the point of code names is to relay that person’s charm and characteristics as-is for the sake of assassinations, and this is important even for boys around the world.” (Said with a serious face)

Birthday: August 1st

Height: 161cm

Weight: 51kg

Bust Size: E

Blood Type: A

Favourite Subject: Japanese

Worst Subject: Maths

Interests and special skills: Things girls ought to be well-versed in, Irina-style

Past Club: Tennis Club (TN: boys and girls seem to have separate clubs, so not the same as Isogai)

Treasured Item(s): a Shu Uemura lipstick from Irina (TN: this is a real brand)

Favourite Food: Pancakes

Bento or Snacks: Bento

Election Headline (from the 1st Popularity Poll): The girl power of the chest!!

From Korosensei, Announcement of Results from the Periodic Exams (Main 5 subjects) (credits to young-il-long-kiyoshi)

Her grades in the 5 main subjects have all elevated uniformly. From the 2nd trimester onwards, when Yada started to become close with Irina-sensei, her English skills have steadily gone up. Natural conversations do indeed make for good education material.

(TN: this may be a callback to Chapter 10, when Korosensei expressed his gratitude that the students got to converse with a natural foreigner)

1st Trimester Mid-Terms: 335 points (92nd place)

1st Trimester End-of-Terms: 392 points (50th place)

2nd Trimester Mid-Terms: 373 points (75th place)

Score breakdown

Show

1st Trimester Mid-Terms English: 70 points (80th place) Japanese: 74 points (111st place) Maths: 55 points (136th place) Science: 69 points (51st place) Social Studies: 67 points (81st place) Composite Score: 335 points (92nd place)

1st Trimester End-of-Terms English: 83 points (45th place) Japanese: 87 points (20nd place) Maths: 68 points (78th place) Science: 79 points (26th place) Social Studies: 75 points (52nd place) Composite Score: 392 points (50th place)

2nd Trimester Mid-Terms English: 90 points (25th place) Japanese: 75 points (105th place) Maths: 66 points (90th place) Science: 72 points (47th place) Social Studies: 70 points (70th place) Composite Score: 373 points (75th place)

Karasuma’s Assassination Aptitude (graded on a scale of 6)

Initially her marksmanship had already been good (tied for 3rd in the June test), but recently when it comes to infiltration assassination-related content, she’s been showing world-class potential, probably because she’s been learning various skills from Irina.

Strategy/Planning: 4

Commanding/Leadership: 2

Execution (Ability to carry out plans): 3

Technique (Traps, weapons, preparations, etc): 1

Scouting/Intelligence Gathering: 4

Politics/Negotiations: 6

B*tch-sensei’s Fashion Check (credits to young-il-long-kiyoshi)

Touka's current fashion is in the midst of ascending the stairway from a girl to a woman. Reminds me of my own past~ But if she wants to better mesmerise men with her charms, she needs to at least show off more of her skin.

School Uniform

She wraps her cardigan around her waist when wearing her uniform. She adopts grown-up women's fashion faster than anyone.

Street Clothes

Her no-slip shirt has a soft texture that feels girly. It's a style that shows her appeal without being too sly.

Character Relationships

- Kayano Kaede (addressed as Kaede-chan) -

She more or less figured that Kayano condemns big chests, but she’s been avoiding that landmine.

- Irina Jelavic (addressed as B*tch-sensei) -

At first their conversations were mainly about reception, negotiation and various other “second blade” topics, but recently their conversations are mostly to do with her relationship with Karasuma. She’s a companion who knows Irina’s phone number. Rather than teacher and student, they feel more like friends, and they’re planning to hold a hotpot party in the coming winter.

- Shiota Nagisa (addressed as Nagisa-kun) -

When Takaoka was one-sidedly pummelling on Nagisa (at Okinawa), she couldn’t help but turn away from the scene. She hates blood and gore, which is why she’s committed herself to perfecting her negotiation skills in order to avoid fighting.

- Muramatsu Takuya (addressed as Muramatsu-kun) -

In elementary school, he once popped into the classroom in which she was learning piano, but very soon he gave up on learning, which she still remembers.

- Kataoka Megu (addressed as Megu) -

In the past, there was a (short period of) time when she lost her heart to Ikemegu. Although, there are lots of girls who want to be close with Kataoka.

(TN: to make sure there's no misunderstanding, this was something in the past. Roll Book Time was based on material up to Volume 13, so by then Yada's girl crush is over)

- Okano Hinata (addressed as Hinata-chan) -

She had already noticed how Okano feels about Maehara very early on, and has been rooting on her from the side. But Maehara hasn’t noticed this at all, so she’s feeling pretty dissatisfied.

- Kurahashi Hinano (addressed as Hina-chan) -

They both have gentle and quiet personalities yet still have pretty high girl power, should any average boy look down and flirt with them, they'll be peacefully, verbally cornered into silence before they even notice.

- Okajima Taiga (addressed as Okajima-kun) -

Okajima has his eyes on her, but because he has no immunity against a real girl’s body, they have not reached a stage of being in (any physical) contact with each other.

Matsui-sensei’s Exclusive Behind the Scenes Data

Irina’s best disciple. Due to learning so many new things, her communication abilities are outstanding. She had been troubled about her huge chest, but through her days of assassination and under Irina’s guidance, she learnt that (psychological) complexes are also weapons that one can make use of in communication.

She once neglected a test because she had to nurse her sickly little brother, and fell into Class E as a result.

When she was caught during the Cops and Robbers game on the mountain, she made known that she had a sickly little brother. There was acting and it did look suspicious, but it really was the reason that she fell into Class E.
