#and depending on the circumstances you take risks with how you're opening it

what is your opinion on the situation?
I've been at work all day so I haven't been able to sit down with stuff fully, it also seems like Caiti is planning to release a statement later today with more information I think? So I'd like to get her response there, but based on what I've seen so far I think I fall more on the side of "people made some dumb choices and should learn from them" than anything else.
Consent is messy and it gets messier when people start lying or are drunk. In this case, both Caiti and George were drunk. From what I understand, either Caiti had a 21+ wristband from the vidcon party, or her friend group did and assumed since she was drinking with them, she was also 21+.
Honestly, when it comes to the matter of underage drinking, I don't think it's even remotely fair to place blame on Dream/George for that. The blame there lies with Caiti deciding to drink while under 21, and on her friends, Ghostie and the other person present who were both over 21. Unlike Dream/George, both of them knew Caiti and knew exactly how old she was and were letting her drink. They were also letting her drink with no one sober and no one making sure she got home.
Now, Caiti is 18 and also I'm not a goddamn square, I'm not gonna stand here and be like "oh no drinking at 18 clutch my pearls" but like, if people are going to blame other people for that situation, that very much lies with Caiti's friends who knew they had an underage person drinking with them. I feel like people are weirdly assigning blame to Dream/George for not like, iding every person they hang out with (particularly if she had a 21+ bracelet at vidcon, which would mean she already got IDed). While completely avoiding placing any blame on the people who 100% knew they were taking an 18 year old drinking without a doubt.
Putting that aside, from my understanding George's side is he believed at the time that she was having fun, and the most they did was cuddle on a couch with other people there. He believed at the time that everything was cool, and that she later decided she was uncomfortable with what happened.
Honestly, I don't really think that's an unfair reading. At this same party, her best friend was there and from Ghostie's own words, she also didn't realize Caiti was uncomfortable until several months later when Caiti told her. If her best friend didn't notice she was uncomfortable or see anything wrong, then I find it hard to think anyone else would pick up on it.
There's certainly risks taken here that I wouldn't have taken. I think that George needs to do better with checking for consent and maybe vetting the people you're hanging out with. Although I also understand that doing a full background check on everyone you ever meet is an absurd requirement and if, at the time, they trusted the person that they actually invited, I get how that shit happens. Per consent, given that he was also drunk, I get how it may've appeared to him that he had consent. I do think it's still something to work on, but I'm also perfectly aware that in real life, people are often going off vibes and social cues, and sometimes those don't mash.
I also think that Caiti's friends have been pretty shitty throughout this. They take no responsibility for having let an 18 year old drink and then ditching her. They are absolutely milking drama out of this shit and they have a weird obsession with blaming Dream for shit he had no fault in.
As for Dream, I don't think he did anything wrong here. Full stop. If Caiti's best friend didn't notice that she was uncomfortable or unhappy, it's insanely unreasonable to expect Dream to have managed that. He was also drunk and hanging out with people, and he had no way of knowing Caiti was underage. None of that shit was his fault, and his statement seems very measured and reasonable. People are trying to blame him for things that he had absolutely no part in, and the UK group are absolutely trying to pull that shit.
Overall, sounds like several people involved made dumb choices, I hope they learn and grow. Otherwise all of this honestly sounds like shit that should've been talked out privately and not tossed to the internet for speculation. Human beings are messy and will fuck up sometimes. This feels like a case of miscommunication and people making risky choices that left people with some hurt.
Again, I may change my mind with further evidence presented, but that's how it feels to me.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
‘Run, run, run’, your mind kept thinking, as the burn of pushing past the wind and all the halls made your legs go weak. You wanted to tear your ears off so you could mute all the screams that were echoing.
You didn't want to die. Fuck it. You're not gonna die.
One of the two Ghostfaces was chasing you, fast but slower than you. Something in your mind told you that they were playing with you. You were just a prey and the predator was being merciful by letting you live for the last time.
Alarms set off in your mind as you dash into an empty classroom, hoping that he will walk past it. You hide behind the door, praying to whoever is above for safety. Nobody listened.
The door to the classroom was opened and you knew it in your bones that you were doomed. That you had to fight, even if you're terrible at it. The creaking sound of the door sent shivers down your spine, your mind going haywire as heavy steps echoed into the empty.
“You can come out, baby,” he said, as he walked in without closing the door, “otherwise you won't get any kindness from me, bird.” The nicknames felt familiar to you but you pay it no mind. As he walks further into the classroom, you decide to slowly get out of your hiding spot to walk out of the door and take a run from it.
You can do it, can't you?
The answer was a no because even when you managed to take a step outside of the classroom, you were yanked back in, and thrown to the floor. The infamous Ghostface is in front of you with a shiny knife that makes your heart go wild but not in the right way. Fear and adrenaline fill your veins as you look around for any sort of weapon but to no avail.
“Don't you fucking come closer,” you snarl at them. “And what are you gonna do if I do, princess? I don't see a prince charming to protect you here,” he mocks you as he kneels, his hand playing around the with the knife in a rather enticing manner. Your eyes pinned on how he played with the knife around, your breath hitching as you could imagine it carving into your skin not to kill you but. . .
You possibly couldn't blame yourself for your thoughts. You knew you had kinks, but you never had a chance to indulge. Your exes were vanilla and you respected that, you never trusted anyone enough to indulge in your fantasies. Except for one person though by accident, he should be safe in his apartment right now.
Coryo. Coryo was safe, he wasn't aware the friend group was going to break into the academy. Coryo had to be safe. Even if you die at the hands of this stranger tonight, Coryo should be fine. He was never part of the main crew after all. His name from the elitists fell due to his wealth being nonexistent, all that existed in Snow was him and his wit. So there's no possible reason for him to be targeted. Coriolanus was safe.
“Cat caught your tongue, doll?” The masked man taunts you, the voice modulator, his knife inching towards your cheek, the blunt side pressing onto your skin. “Fuck off,” you spit out, trying to crawl away from him but you had no strength left. No fight left in you. Your legs hurt, you can't think, and the rest of your friends are fighting or worse dead.
Tears begin to fill your eyes as you begin to think about them. Last you saw Sajanus, he was getting stabbed, Lucy had run, and Tigris… She was one of the killers, you couldn't wrap your head around that. You looked at Ghostface, a pathetic part of wanting to plead for your life but your ego won out. You spit onto their mask. “Fuck you!” you yelled at them.
A growl sounding feral even through the voice modulator could be heard. Ghostface grabs your jaw with his free hand, “You should know better than to do that, pet,” he smirks. He flipped the knife, the sharp end now digging into your skin, cutting up the layer of the cheek so beads of blood would drag themselves onto the knife.
A small whine left you, but it wasn't out of pain. Your body was readily confusing danger with your desires and there's nothing your mind could do about it. Ghostface lets out a chuckle, “Freaky bitch.” His hand was still grabbing your jaw, your legs pushed down by the weight of his body, there was no way for you to fight (you didn't want to) as he used his knife to pop the buttons of your shirt one by one. Your skin, every inch of your torso and chest was exposed to him.
This should have filled ice in your veins, but fire burned instead, you should have yelled at him to stop, plead, anything instead you tried to nip the urge of rubbing your thighs together. Fuck, this turned you on to no end. The thrill. The danger. You were so tired of being good. So what if you end up dead, at least you'll get a good fuck out of this.
His knife begins to cut fine lines onto your skin, near your bra, dragging along the underside of your clothed breast. Red begins to paint across your skin. “Fuck,” you whispered when the knife dug too deeply near your left hip, a long cut that felt like he was carving out a letter. You take multiple deep breaths, trying to keep the tears at the edge. “Stop!” you whispered, “Just kill me, stop.” The murderer didn't reply.
Something felt eerily familiar about him, the way something was carved onto your skin. You sit up a bit, and he doesn't stop you and your eyes fall to the cut he had finished on your hip. A ‘C’. No, no, no, no.
“Coryo,” you groan, in pain and shock. Tigris being one of the killers, you suppose it made sense. But what assured you was the fact Snow was always marking you up, a finger tracing the letters of his name onto your hand, or the tip of a pen inking you with his initials onto your skin. This time he did it with a knife, something so permanent. It was such a Coryo thing to do.
A soft distorted laugh comes out through the mask before his hand lifts it. Coriolanus Snow with his manic blue eyes and a feral grin, his blonde locks disheveled for once greeted you. “You're going to enjoy this, doll,”
“You- I-” You couldn't form a single thought, how could you? Your Coryo (both of you were nothing, both of you were something. So close to being with each other forever but too afraid to jump that hill) was a murderer, he was going to kill you. A boy whom you watched for years grow up to be a man despite the circumstances, whom you had shared your first kiss with and who was your first love and the one who got away because of your cowardice was going to kill you. You were going to die by his hands. Poets would make it seem romantic, dying at the hands of your love seems like a mercy.
It wasn't.
Anybody but him, you didn't want your love to be tainted with this. You didn't want your blood to be on his hands, not on your Snow. “Anyone but you,” you whispered, “Coryo, no!” You flinch away when he leans in and a glare forms in his eyes. “I won't hurt you, doll. You're one of the good ones. You're my pet,” he whispered, his knife pressing onto the bleeding wound of your skin. “I have trained you so well after all,” he smirks.
“What- what do you mean?” You gasp out, your mind on the edge of your sanity. “You aren't afraid, you aren't screaming, you aren't crying and whining like a bitch like those other motherfuckers, are you?” He grins, “It's because your body knows that I won't hurt you. I have trained you to feel safe around me. I am your savior, doll.” He leans in closer, his hot breath hitting your lips with his every word, “You enjoyed the run. You enjoyed the chase. You don't care about dying, you want to be fucked. You didn't know it was me but I bet your slutty cunt is soaking through those panties anyway."
“Am I lying?” He whispered, “Tell me it's a lie, tell me you aren't wet, that you weren't enjoying this and I'll leave.” You couldn't bring yourself to lie, not when you were lost in those eyes. Is this why people say love ends you? It was a weapon that Coryo knew he held, an invisible dragger against your throat. “I-” You wanted to lie, you wanted too, you swear.
Instead, you close the pathetic excuse of a gap between his lips and yours. Your hands grab at his robe, pulling him in as you kiss feverishly. Like he was the air itself, you couldn't breathe, not when both your lips and your tongues meet. The moan you let out of the contact made you realize you had nothing left to yourself. Your mind, your soul, and your marked body belonged to him. The price for falling for the devil. A price you gladly paid.
He breaks the kiss with a gasp, his face in a boyish grin you have seen from childhood. “I knew it. You're mine, dove. Mine.” With that he licks a strip of nearly dried blood from your cheek, dragging his tongue onto your cut and letting out a moan from the taste of iron onto his tongue. Your taste. You whimper as he continues to lav at the blood covering your face, cleaning you up like a dog would.
His cold hands find their way to your back, playing with your bra clasp before finally freeing your breasts from their confines. He pulls back, throwing the knife far away from you both (did it matter? He would win in a fight anyway). His palms knead your breasts, as his needy lips keep pressing against yours.
“Is this real?” He asked, breathless. His fingers roll your nipples until they harden under his touch. You moan in response as your nipples keep getting teased, a sharp gasp leaves as he pinches the nipples hard. “Real or not real?”
“Real,” you whimper, “Real. Real. Real. Real. Coryo, I love you!” He lets out a growl as he hears your confession, his attention towards your breasts getting rougher as he drags his tongue across the canvas of your skin, his teeth marking you up wherever they pleased.
“Of course, you do, baby. I made it so,” he whispered, when his mouth meets your taut nipple, his lips wrapping themselves around the bud to suck as one of his hands was on your back and his opposite hand giving your breast rougher attention. Meanwhile, your hands had found their way into his robes, sliding them off so his shirt and his pants were in view. Your fingers immediately begin to unbutton his shirt to the best of their abilities, your mind not sure whether to focus on the task or the delicious heat of his mouth around your sensitive nub.
Coryo deciding to have mercy (he was sick of your uncoordinated hands, how pathetic you were) took it upon himself to undress while being on task. His lips left to find a home in the cuts he made all over his chest, the small cuts stinging from his licks. But the pain was delicious, could it be considered pain at all with how much you loved it? You suppose not. This was a pleasure, all pleasure given to you by a monster.
His toned muscles came into your view, your hands flying to his shoulder, nails digging into his shoulders causing him to hiss, he was down to your hips now. Near your mark, his initial carved so beautifully against your skin. He had to admire it, he had no choice but to.
“Such a pretty doll. My canvas, I can't wait to have you all to myself, am gonna mark you so nice,” his eyes meet yours. “You have no choice but to let me.”
He pressed a kiss to the deep cut, the blood from it made a mess on the floor. You suspected the only reason you were conscious was because of adrenaline alone. His lips are red with your blood pressed onto your lips, making you taste yourself. You moan, letting yourself be familiarized with the taste for the future.
Your hands find solace in his blonde locks as his hands unbutton your pants. “Let's see how slutty my pet is,” he whispered. He slides off your pants and underwear in one go, his fingers pressing into your heat, gathering the arousal onto his fingertips. He shakes his head, looking displeased (he was more than pleased inside, don't worry), “What a whore.” He pulls his fingers back and strings of your arousal follow. Then smack, smack, smack. Three slaps were delivered to your pussy making you jolt and moan wantonly. Your eyes widen and your cunt begins to ache, reddening from his actions, your clit puffing up and twitching, needing more.
“Please,” you plead, your voice weak, your vision blurry, you need to feel him inside before you black out. “Please, please, Coryo, baby,” you begin to babble, your mind a mess. You feel a kiss on your forehead. “Let go, dove,” he whispered, “I'm gonna keep you safe.”
You wanted to laugh at his words. His actions were the opposite of safe. It was anything but. However, your body had relaxed in his hold, your mind blanking out.
Your mind comes back to reality after hours. You open your eyes to meet pitch black, your body not on the hard cold floor of the academy classroom but on something soft. A bed. “Coryo,” you called, your voice filled with fear.
“Coryo,” you whispered again, turning your body to meet with another warm body. Coryo.
You let out a sigh of relief, and the pain of the incident now settled into your bones, like a distant buzz. You nuzzle into Coriolanus' chest, one of your arms around him. You realize both of you were naked. Completely utterly bare, skin on skin. Your breath hitches, feeling the heat coursing through your body again as you feel his soft cock onto your thigh, so fucking close to your cunt.
You bite your lip in thought, you want to know what happened after you lost consciousness. Were all your friends dead? Did they escape? Did they find out? You also wanted his cock, impatient because you waited for years, and despite the circumstances you knew when to seize opportunities.
Coryo was a heavy sleeper, it was like he slept with the weight of everything on his shoulder. Weight of his world at least. Plus he would like a treat, right? A man as insane as he is, he wouldn't mind your actions even if it solidifies his opinion of you being an whore for him.
Your fingers trace his chest, your palm feeling his heartbeat, your heavy breaths and his quiet ones fill the room. You take your palm and lick it, lubricating it before you grip his length. Your strokes were hesitant, your mind afraid that he would break up and he would be mad. But you feel his cock harden and you love it. You fucking love it. Your pussy gets wet as time goes by and his cock completely hardens.
You take his cockhead and slowly begin to slide it against your pussy lips. A soft moan escapes you as the tip nudges your sensitive clit. Your slick was coated all over his length as you kept grinding against his cock. And soon enough after a particular nudge, his cockhead gets caught in your entrance. It could have easily been pushed away and you could have continued with your actions. But you are pathetically needy and this was not enough.
A whimper escapes your lips as you begin to guide your hips forward to let the cock inside your cunt, stretching out your walls perfectly. You let out a gasp when he was fully in. His cock twitching inside of you. Now was the hard part, fucking yourself onto his cock without him waking up. Impossible but you didn't care at the moment.
You slowly started to roll your hips, taking his length deep inside of you, your walls squeezing around him. You let out soft moans, trying your best to control the animalistic need to ride his cock. Time passes and this continues, the ache of your cunt not fading but getting worse and worse with the need to cum. The pace wasn't enough, no matter how many ways you rubbed your clit raw wasn't enough.
Deciding to play with the devil, you pushed Coryo's sleeping body onto his back, your pussy holding onto his cock as you straddle him. The angle made it so his cockhead kissed your g-spot making you gasp as stars flood your vision, but it didn't trigger your orgasm, your walls oversensitive but throbbing to cum, cum, cum.
You wanted to wake up Snow, wanted him to fuck you, use you, and love you. But you decided against it as you begin to grind your hips, your swollen clit pressing onto his groomed pubic hair, the sensation making you bite your lower lip to stop a loud moan that would surely wake him up.
You couldn't keep up with this long, you wanted to cum, wanted to be filled with his cum as well. You begin to go faster, letting all sense of control out of the window as you slam down his cock again and again, letting his tip nearly breach your cervix.
Smack.
The sound of his hand meeting the meat of your ass freezes you. The area victim of his hit was reddening. “Why did you stop?” He voices, his tone filled with lust “Ride me, bitch. How needy were you that you couldn't wait, huh? Disgusting, truly. I need to train you better, pet.”
An apology remains to be said as his hand slaps your ass again. “Fuck yourself on me, doll,” he grunts, his tone reeking of impatiently. “Co-coryo,” you whine, your hips finding their rhythm but this time with Coriolanus thrusting upwards into your cunt, disrupting your pace. But neither of you cared, both of your actions borderlining to those of mating animals under a full moon.
His hands hold you down, gripping your hips tightly with his fingers printing onto your skin. It puts pressure on your previous wound, making you cry out and tighten your pussy around him reflexively. You wonder if your wound began to bleed again because the smell of blood began to stink in the air along with the distinct smell of sex.
Your thoughts were proven correct as one of his hands left your hip in favor of licking his palm on which your wound had bled. His thrusts turn frantic as the taste of iron blooms onto his tongue. “Fuck, fuck, Coryo!” You begin to moan, louder and louder as heat begins to coil up on your lower tummy. Your gummy walls get slicker and slicker as your sensitive nerves go overdrive with his thrusts.
He lets out a groan, and in a flash, you are on your back onto the mattress, pressed into it as his mouth latches onto your jaw. His hips rutted into you without a care. “You taste so fucking delicious, I bet your cunt tastes wonderous too, princess,” he moans as his teeth begin to bite into the flesh of your neck, his erratic pace bringing you closer and closer to the edge.
Your hands find themselves on his back, your nails scratching his skin and forming red lines which sting but he loves it so much. So fucking much. His hands pushed your legs up, pressing your knees onto your chest. He has you folded onto a mating press position. His cock reaching impossible depths inside of you.
A particular thrust of his made his cock fuck into your cervix, it makes you scream from the pleasure and pain of all, your body finally letting go. Your cunt spasming, milking his cock for what it's worth as clear liquid squirted out of you, covering Coryo who merely groans from it all.
He fucks you through your orgasm, his cock hitting all the right angles and as your pussy tightens around his cock just right. He cums, deep and nice into your womb. He continues to roll his hips into you, his pace slowing down as he fucks his hot, thick cum into you.
He lets out a shuddering breath as he pulls out and lays beside you. Both of catching your breaths. He breaks the silence first.
“I am going to tell you everything, doll but let me clean up the wound first.”

saw the ask about lloyd's acting skills, and now i'm curious, what are your hcs on ninja & co's acting skills? (going undercover, hiding feelings, etc.)
Kai: Is not very good at hiding what he feels (even when in denial he's ostensively loud and sometimes exaggerated about it), but is capable of putting on a convincing performance when he's dedicated enough. The only other problem is he also tries too hard, so he's also easy to catch onto to when he's only putting up a front.
Jay: Jay's good at slipping into a persona when the situation calls for it—his only downfall is when he starts getting caught up in the web of his own lies, because then he gets flustered and that's when things fall apart. It's always easy to tell what he's feeling (or is most likely feeling), but unlike mostly everyone else he's also good at playing it off, which allows him to get away with it most of the time.
Cole: Good at both playing a role and hiding his true feelings, to the point that unless you really know him, you're not even going to be able to figure out what his actual baseline is. I wouldn't say he's exactly 'go with the flow', but he's so mild-mannered anyway (unless provoked) that he only needs the bare minimum to be convincing. Just don't make him sing.
Zane: Is theoretically the best at undercover work, and has a huge advantage when it comes to disguises and mimicry...but he also runs the risk of telling on himself (especially when performing illegal affairs) and potential technical failures. He also tends to ask too many questions he shouldn't be outright asking, on top of the tendency to correct others on things he knows are wrong. And when it comes to his feelings, seldom does he ever believe he has a reason to lie about them anyway (at least, not until a little later on), so he's actually rather open on that front.
Nya: Probably runs somewhere in the middle–she's good at getting the job done, but how effectively she does so depends on circumstance. As for her feelings, the only one she's ever easily open with is her frustration, but can be prodded into talking if you approach it...delicately.
Lloyd: As Discussed
Jesse: Essentially opposite of Lloyd—wears his heart on his sleeve, unfortunately, but if given a role to play he is a decent enough actor. It takes a great amount of effort to even try to hide his feelings (he's not nearly as good at repressing as Lloyd is, but he still tries). On the flip side of things, he is a natural-born performer, and can certainly put on a convincing performance as needed (just, not when it comes to matters of the heart, I suppose).
Olivia: Similar to Kai, is both really loud and brazen about what's she's actually feeling, but only what she wants you to see. Also similar to Cole, she doesn't have to change much from her baseline to be convincing (or at least be abrasive enough so you don't ask too many questions). Catching her in a moment of weakness is really the only way to expose where she's vulnerable, though.
Pixal: A master of deception. Far better at mimicry than Zane, save for the ability to cloak, but as long as her face is covered she'll be able to convince you that she's anyone. As for her feelings, she's pretty lock and key about being up front with them, but at the very least you can always tell when something is bugging her.
Skylor: Similar to Nya, is capable of getting an undercover job done with minimal emotional interference, but circumstances will cause this to vary. Doesn't exactly vocalize what she's feeling often, but if you just ask her she'll tell you.
Harumi: Well she just speaks for herself (or...doesn't speak *ba dum tiss*

tbh the thing i think abt and worry about the most as an artist on the financial side of things is what i'm going to do if the bottom falls out of things like patreon. like if the payment processors get pissed off at them for any reason it's game over for me and a lot of other people. but im so wary of diversifying payment options too much because i think every time you add a payment website to your life, you're opening up another avenue to be hacked. its always a matter of "when" not "if" something gets hacked and you have to depend on this third party to have done it due diligence to keep your shit locked up right. and i dont know if i trust like that any more.
also, being real, a lot of patreon payments are a result of inertia. move around too much, or at all, and risk losing the vast majority of your income. you can rebuild it, but it takes time. which is, you know, how the world works. that's fine. its not the time it takes i dislike but the circumstances around it that entice you into treating audience building/re-building as a numbers game and not a trust exercise

What does May have install for you?
Hello! Welcome to this pick a pile, I hope you enjoy the reading!
Please remember this reading is meant for several people, so take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. (:
Tumblr media
Pile 1 - The Wheel of Fortune, Queen of Pentacles and Four of Cups
You may experience some significant changes and shifts in your life during May. This could be related to unexpected events or circumstances that you have little control over, but the outcome could be positive or negative depending on how you respond to these changes. Your finances and material possessions will be a focus during this month. You may have opportunities to increase your income or make wise investments, but you will need to be practical, grounded, and responsible in your approach. You may struggle with feelings of discontent, boredom, or apathy during May. You may feel like something is missing or that you're not satisfied with what you have. This is a good time to reflect on your emotional needs, desires, and goals, and to explore new avenues for personal growth and fulfillment.
Pile 2 -The Fool, Ace of Swords, Three of Pentacles
May may bring new opportunities or experiences, but you may need to take a leap of faith to pursue them. It's a time for spontaneity, adventure, and embracing the unknown. Be open to new experiences and take calculated risks, but also be mindful of potential consequences. May will also bring mental clarity, focus, and determination. You may gain new insights or perspectives that help you see things more clearly and make important decisions. This is a time for cutting through confusion and doubt, and taking action based on your intuition and inner wisdom. May might be a time for collaboration, teamwork, and cooperation. You may need to work closely with others to achieve your goals
Pile 3 - The Devil, The Emperor, Nine of Pentacles
In may you may be dealing with unhealthy habits or attachments that are holding you back. This could be related to addiction, codependency, or negative thought patterns. Be aware of the negative influences in your life and take steps to break free from them. May may be a time for you to assert your personal power and take control of your life. You may need to establish clear boundaries and set high standards for yourself and others. May will also bring material success and financial stability, but you will need to be independent and self-sufficient to fully enjoy it. Focus on your own skills and talents, and trust in your ability to create abundance in your life.

While on the topic of relationships I wanted to ask something and I hope its not overstepping if so you can feel free to ignore this. Im a sufferer of chronic pain and I think there will be a point where I cannot work anymore. How did you go about expressing to your partner your unable to work and provide 50/50 and is he okay with it? I don’t know how to open up to my boyfriend because Im scared he will feel pressured or overwhelmed. Thank you for reading Jaiden!
hello anon! i was gonna answer this last night but i fell asleep aha, but you're not overstepping at all! i'll put this under a cut because it's pretty long
when we first discussed me not returning to the workforce, i basically just sat him down and told him my feelings about why i didn't think i can maintain a job. this was during covid, before the vaccines, so i still couldn't find work without significantly risking my health or his parents' health, since we still lived with his parents at the time, and his father is immunocompromised. i can't drive (i tried learning but it ended dangerously, that's all i'll say), so finding reliable transportation would be difficult. there's also the issue of our location, where at the time we lived in a rural town in bumfuck louisiana (we live in a city now, but still nothing compared to cities in bigger, more densely populated states) where job opportunities for me, someone with no education and no prior job experience, were sparse. and lastly of course i brought up my absolutely terrible mental health crisis, which he's witnessed firsthand, so he knew what i was talking about when i explained the deeper symptoms i'd been experiencing. i literally just made a list of all the cons and explained to him why i personally didn't find it viable, but still reassured him that i was open to finding work if we ever needed extra income, as well as reassuring him that i wouldn't be mad if he didn't agree with my reasoning, i simply wanted to put my thoughts out there so we could communicate our expectations. he is a very kind person though, so he understood exactly where i was coming from and we planned accordingly.
i also feel compelled to say that our circumstance is very unique in the modern day, as we had a lot of privileges a lot of people i know don't have. my partner attended college and received his bachelor's degree for free on account of his scholarships, so he has no debt, and neither do i. he works in a field where jobs are always in demand no matter where he goes, where the starting salary is very comfortable, and where growth is inevitable, and that combined with the fact that we live in louisiana which is a low cost of living state compared to many other states makes our decision a viable one. we also always had support from his parents, who have been nothing but kind and encouraging and have fully integrated me into their family. we're in a really privileged position to make this decision and i fully recognize that, and i understand that not everyone can make this decision because of various factors. so please don't take this as me trying to like "sell" this lifestyle or whatever, there's that weird trend online of the ~tradwife life~ and ~divine feminine~ and whatever, and i never want to seem like i'm shoveling that to my followers, it's just that the circumstances of our lives worked out in such a way where me not having to work became a reasonable option.
if you and your partner reasonably cannot live without two incomes, which is very common given how expensive it is to live, i would highly suggest discussing the possibility of you working less hours and contributing less financially, so maybe instead of working a full 40 hours a week you can take up part-time work, and pay for all the groceries/utilities while your partner handles the rent. instead of splitting 50/50, y'all can try something more like 40/60 or even 30/70 depending on your needs. try to emphasize the good this will do for your physical and mental wellbeing, and if it helps you like it helped me, i would make a structured list going through the pros and cons of your thought process! assuming you begin working less hours, i'd also recommend taking on more housework as a compromise, since you'll be working less. obviously you don't have to do all the housework since you're both still working and it's unfair to expect you to do all the housework while having a job and paying bills. honestly i don't work and my partner still helps with chores and he's responsible for his own laundry and cleaning his own office and stuff, so don't let your partner think you have to take on ALL the household labor while working part time. but still, try to level the division of labor by doing a few more chores, maybe doing the dishes more often, or cooking more often, or cleaning the shared spaces more often as a compromise, since you'll be working less than they are.
there's also a lot of remote work available nowadays! so if your chronic illness makes it difficult for you to work shift work, i would highly suggest finding something where you may work from home. one of my best friends works remote at a call center, where they provided the computer for him, he just had to find a way to pick it up himself, but otherwise he never has to leave his house for his job. there's plenty of jobs like that, so i would definitely try to find work like that if you not working isn't an option, but you want to find work that isn't so taxing on your body!!
sorry i rambled so much, apparently i had much more to say than i thought i did ahah. i really hope things work out for you anon, i'm sending you lots of love. take care of yourself <3

Whoever left that is a major dick. You're smart and noble which are proper compliments. If I knew I wouldn't get rejected then I'd ask you on a date but I can tell how you carry yourself you probably have different standards like higher than most. I'm not good at conversations maybe you wouldn't just go on a date with someone you couldn't converse with. I also don't want to be vain but you are beautiful too. Enjoy these compliments for what they're worth. I have a preference to admire from afar.
thank you for your compliments! i try to uphold my own morale. i carry myself to a high standard, mostly. it makes it a lot easier to carry those standards into relationships by having my own way of self control; for example, what i will allow from myself and holding myself accountable, which i need to do for my own future. it's really the only way that i feel i can guarantee a fair chance at being genuine. i mostly don't date, especially casually. i'm too serious of a person for 'casual' anything. that's not to say that i am not open minded or not willing to be more carefree in those instances, as i've stated before. i find myself a bit too purpose based for pure indulgence and mindlessness, unless there's a lot of work involved. i've found dating itself to be a waste of time for that reason, as it's usually the opposite of that. i know that if i'm seeking like minded people, or people who understand my mannerisms, they won't be in those spaces. it would be nothing but continued frustrations for me, for various reasonings
a conversation is at the least a very real start to a possible connection! i wouldn't take a risk like going on a random date with anyone, without having a set of knowledges beforehand. taking risks can be good depending upon your personal mindset. at least actual rejection or redirection is a fair response. it also grants you the instant ability to move on in that moment, which could be better than dwelling on it and never acting on your desires. if it's something you really want, then the risk will most likely have to be worth the rejection. you'll never know everything you need to know about a person in order to feel comfortable with the risk of rejection, if it's something that makes you withdrawal. things unfold over time obviously, but without actions, it's a lost cause
again, i thank you for your compliments! if you ever want to converse with me, i'm open to that. if you know it would be pointless, then i do apologize for the circumstances of our incompatibility and i hope for you the best! 😌

When the Power Goes Out: How to Stay Calm and Prepared
Shaina Tranquilino
November 21, 2023
Tumblr media
I was on the way home from attending a birthday dinner and all of a sudden, the streets went dark, all the street lamps were off, and it was pitch black outside. Thankfully, I was close to home and I had my phone on me to use as a flashlight. We don't have many power outages where I live, so I am lucky. However, since I am now at home sitting in the dark, I figured, what a perfect time to write! I wrote this blog on what to do when the power goes out, as I believe it can help some people calm down and be prepared in case this happens to them!
So, Imagine you're in the middle of a regular day, going about your daily routine when suddenly, darkness engulfs your surroundings. The power has gone out! Whether it's due to inclement weather, an electrical issue, or any other unforeseen circumstance, losing power can be quite inconvenient. However, instead of panicking or feeling helpless, there are several steps you can take to ensure safety and make the most of this unexpected downtime. In this blog post, we will discuss some practical tips on what to do when the power goes out.
1. Assess the situation: The first thing to do is calmly assess whether it's just your home experiencing a power outage or if it's more widespread. Check if your neighbours' houses are also without electricity. If they are affected too, it's likely a larger-scale issue that requires contacting the utility company for updates.
2. Gather essential supplies: Having an emergency kit handy is always beneficial during a power outage. Ensure you have items such as flashlights with extra batteries, candles, matches or lighters (safely stored away from children), portable phone chargers or power banks, a battery-operated radio for news updates, and enough drinking water and non-perishable food for at least 72 hours.
3. Preserve perishables: If the power outage lasts longer than a couple of hours, consider opening refrigerators and freezers only when necessary to maintain cool temperatures inside. This will help prevent spoilage of food items and extend their shelf life until normalcy is restored.
4. Secure alternative lighting: Use flashlights or battery-powered lanterns rather than relying solely on candles during extended periods without electricity; they offer safer illumination while reducing fire risks. Keep these lights strategically placed throughout your house to provide adequate visibility in all essential areas.
5. Unplug electronic devices: Before the power comes back on, it's wise to unplug electronic devices and appliances to protect them from potential power surges. This step safeguards your valuable equipment from damage when electricity is restored.
6. Stay entertained: Since you won't have access to television or internet during a power outage, have alternate sources of entertainment ready. Board games, card games, books, or puzzles can provide hours of fun for both kids and adults alike. Engage in meaningful conversations with family members or neighbours and make the most out of this uninterrupted quality time.
7. Keep cool (or warm): Depending on the weather conditions and the duration of the power outage, maintaining a comfortable temperature indoors may become important. If it's hot outside, try opening windows to create cross-ventilation; if it's cold, layer up with warm clothing and blankets. Avoid using gas stoves or charcoal grills for heating purposes as they pose serious risks of carbon monoxide poisoning.
8. Check on vulnerable individuals: If you live alone or have senior citizens, young children, or pets in your household, ensure their safety during a power outage by checking on them regularly. Make sure they are comfortable and provide necessary assistance if needed.
Experiencing a sudden power outage can be disruptive but staying calm and prepared will help you navigate through this temporary inconvenience smoothly. By assessing the situation, gathering essential supplies, preserving perishables wisely, securing alternative lighting sources, unplugging electronics, finding alternative entertainment options, regulating indoor temperatures appropriately, and checking on vulnerable individuals around you - you will be well-prepared for unexpected moments of darkness. Remember that being proactive before an emergency occurs ensures you're ready to face any challenges that arise while keeping yourself and those around you safe!

Does life get better with age ?
Whether life gets better with age is a complex question that depends on a variety of factors, including your individual circumstances, your personality, and your outlook on life. However, there is some evidence to suggest that life can indeed get better as we age.
For one, as we get older, we tend to become more comfortable in our own skin. We know who we are and what we want out of life, and we're less likely to be swayed by the opinions of others. This can lead to a greater sense of happiness and satisfaction.
We also tend to become more resilient as we age. We've experienced more of life's ups and downs, and we've learned how to cope with challenges. This can make us better able to deal with the stresses of life and to bounce back from setbacks.
In addition, as we get older, we tend to have more financial security and more free time. This can give us the opportunity to pursue our passions and to make the most of our lives.
Of course, there are also challenges that come with aging. We may experience health problems, the loss of loved ones, or the need to downsize our lives. However, if we can navigate these challenges successfully, we can emerge stronger and more resilient than ever before.
Ultimately, whether life gets better with age is a matter of personal perspective. However, there is some evidence to suggest that it can indeed get better. If you're open to the possibilities, you may be surprised at how much your life can improve as you age.
Here are some of the benefits of aging:
More wisdom and experience. As you live longer, you accumulate more wisdom and experience. This can help you make better decisions, solve problems more effectively, and navigate life's challenges with greater ease.
Stronger relationships. Your relationships with family and friends tend to deepen as you age. You have more time to spend with the people you care about, and you appreciate their presence in your life more than ever before.
More freedom and flexibility. As you get older, you may have more freedom and flexibility in your life. You may be able to retire from your job, travel more, or pursue new hobbies. This can give you a sense of liberation and allow you to focus on the things that are most important to you.
A greater sense of purpose. As you age, you may develop a stronger sense of purpose in life. You may find that you are more motivated to make a difference in the world, and you may be more willing to take risks and pursue your dreams.
Of course, aging also comes with some challenges. These may include health problems, financial difficulties, and the loss of loved ones. However, if you are able to face these challenges head-on, you can emerge stronger and more resilient than ever before.
So, does life get better with age? It certainly can. If you are open to the possibilities and willing to embrace the challenges, you may be surprised at how much your life can improve as you age.

Diet After Stent Implant- What to Consume and What Not?
Heart disease has cast its shadow over India in the last few decades. As per research, one out of four Indians dies in CVD(cardiovascular disorder). While stent placement is not the only solution, it’s time that we take care of our heart after surgery.
Experts suggest heart disease is preventable and, in many circumstances, reversible if dietary modifications are made. Simple lifestyle changes and healthy eating habits can go a long way to fighting against heart disease. Here we will discuss which diet you should plan after heart treatment and what to avoid after stent. Continue reading to learn more.
Understanding angioplasty- How diet can affect the treatment outcome after angioplasty?
The arteries of your heart might get clogged or restricted as a result of an accumulation of cholesterol, cells, or fatty plaques.
As a result, the flow of blood to your heart may be reduced, causing chest tightness or blood clots, and finally leading to a heart attack.
The angioplasty procedure can be life-saving to open up the clogged arteries by placing a stent inside the artery. But can not cure atherosclerosis or narrowing of blood vessels.
With minimal dietary changes, you can reduce the risk of developing heart diseases by severalfold.
Diet after stent implant- What to consume?
A well-balanced diet enriched with heart-protective nutrients can help your heart to score a long run. Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, dietary fibers are necessary to improve your overall cardiovascular health, lower the cholesterol level and prevent any recurrent plaque build-up after angioplasty or stent placement.
Here is a list of foods that you can depend on -
Fresh fruits and vegetables- Yes, you read it right! 3-4 servings of fresh fruit and veggies are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and fibers. While these low-calorie foods can help you to stay active throughout the day and take good care of your health too.
Do not add those toppings loaded with cheese, butter, or high sauce.
Avoid having canned juice with added sugar or salt.
Nuts- It is beneficial to consume these on a daily basis. Cashews are high in zinc, iron, and magnesium, whereas almonds are high in calcium and Vitamin E. Walnuts are highly recommended since they are abundant in omega 3 and are known antioxidants. They also play an important role in reducing LDL.
Sprouts and legumes- Sprouts and legumes (beans, peas, and lentils) are another wonderful source of critical nutrients and low-fat protein, providing fiber and protein to keep your stomach full for extended periods of time. They also lower the chances of heart disease. Sprouts should be consumed in two portions each day.
Healthy oils-Not all fats are unhealthy, in fact, a few are necessary for the body's vital functioning and for lubricating joints. Olive oil and peanut oil are two examples. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are preferred.
Freshly brewed tea-When you're in the need of something relaxing and peaceful, opt for freshly made tea rather than packaged one. Tea high in flavonoids may reduce the risk of developing heart issues.
Whole grains- choose whole grains instead of processed flour. Rich in fibers and helps to reduce the cholesterol content from your blood.
Stay hydrated- There is no better way to compensate for fluid loss than to drink more water. When you're sick, your body needs a lot of water to function, fight viruses, eliminate toxins, and replace lost fluids.
Caffeinated beverages should be avoided since they increase water loss through the kidneys and increase heart palpitation as well.
Poultry and fish- Not all protein sources are good for your health. Because they contain less saturated fat than red meat, fish and poultry are considered ideal choices.
Just remember to cook them in a healthy method, such as broiling, baking, or poaching, and stay away from high-fat sauces and gravies.
Fatty fish, such as salmon, trout are high in beneficial fats known as omega-3 fatty acids.
What should you avoid after stent placement?
Avoid having fatty foods, foods with added preservatives or sugars.
Limit coffee intake.
Restrict your salt intake too. This will help to lower your blood pressure and reduce the overall workload of your heart.
Processed fish or meats are not good for your heart. Stay away from red meat as well.
Apart from this, while COVID-19 has affected India’s health care system, our panel of cardiologists has recommended the negative impact of this virus on one’s heart. So to stay hale and hearty, start following the diet regimen.
Why should you consider getting a stent implant in India?
India is the most favored place for heart treatment operations for a few major reasons. And if you are searching for the best heart hospital in India, we will help you out to find the same.
India's cutting-edge reproductive techniques,
medical skills
Multidisciplinary approach
Personalized diet chart for faster healing for post-surgery recovery
Heart treatment costs in India are among the best in the world, as our patients need affordable and quality outcomes.
All these have significantly increased the success rate of stent implant treatment in India.
Conclusion-By simply packing their medical journey to India, heart treatment can substantially benefit the patient. We also offer a comprehensive range of counseling for coping with emotional changes to our international patients.
How can we help in the treatment?
