FALLOUT (TV SERIES, 2024): Episode Three Feel free to edit the sentences, places, pronouns, etc, as you need. NSFW TW: Mentions of drugs, violence
“You’re a good man.”
“Turns out, [name]’s a bit of a communist.”
“What a shame, he was a great writer.”
“Let’s pick this up after lunch, right?”
“You gunna save any grape taffy for the rest of us?”
“Tastes like someone touching you for the first time.”
“Uhm, that’s the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth.”
“A bit of a costume change for you.”
“Alright, what is so special about you?”
“There, snug as a bug.”
“I do not know what I have done to offend, but I beg for mercy.”
“I’m just not sure who I really am anymore.”
“I lack enthusiasm.”
“It’s a predicament isn’t it? How do you demote someone who equally dislikes every job he’s ever worked.”
“You know, they used to do these things called ‘studies.’ Why, you couldn’t open a newspaper without reading about one study or another. Anyways, this one particular study came out, and it said that torturing a person don’t do shit. It made sense. I mean, a man hurts me, I wouldn’t want to do him any favors. And yet the practice of torture has failed to vanish from this earth. In fact, as time marched on, I personally noticed a decided uptick in the amount of torture being doled out across the board.”
“My point is, if you ask me, them studies was right. Torturing a person don’t do shit.”
“Then, why are you doing this?”
“Well, I ain’t torturing you, sweetheart, I’m using you as bait.”
“You can’t treat people like this. Because of the golden rule ‘do unto others as you would have done unto you.’”
“Thou shalt get sidetracked by bullshit every goddamn time.”
“We can do to them what they would have done to us.”
“It just occurred to me, we’re definitely picking up an abomination of some kind or another. Just not sure we’re tracking the right abomination.”
“If you let me lead the charge, I’ll lead the charge.”
“You saved me.”
“You saved me first.”
“Sir, please, I need water.”
“This thing really block radiation?”

4/9/2024 7:10PM
I woke up this morning with my chest feeling heavy. I didn’t sleep till 4am. I woke up at 9am. Late to bring Mason to school. In my head, I thought well that’s the first failure I’ve done as a single mom. Could I do this? Eric woke me up with a call asking if I brought Mason to school and I said I will but he would be late but he would need to be here by 10am to drop off Mikayla’s ballet shoes from his car. I thought about how Eric must be reveling in how hard it’ll be for me being a single mom and how he’s just waiting until I come back to him. He could have taken Mason to school. He could have taken Mikayla to ballet this morning but he didn’t even offer. I made his take Mason to school anyways because Mikayla was running late for ballet. I felt heavy when I was there. Was it the lack of sleep? I didn’t know. I felt numb, achy. Like something stuck in my throat. I was able to watch her recital performance from the inside and I recorded it but I struggled to enjoy it. I still felt the same as I did when I was with Eric. I wondered if I had made the right choice. Tammy texted me, I didn’t respond back. I didn’t want to talk about it. I thought about talking to Lani or biggie, but I couldn’t do it. I felt so empty and heavy beyond words. I took Mikayla to McDonald’s for a happy meal then went home to eat her lunch. I took a nap before I had to get Mikayla ready for school, I woke up still feeling heavy after I dropped her off to school. I forced myself to go to Sam’s Club and get two more books in the ACOTAR series, and then forced myself to visit a cafe I’ve always wanted to go since I haven’t eaten yet. I went to Gäbi coffee house. It was cute. There were a lot of tourists there, people with accents. I found a seat and read a few chapters of ACOTAR. I’m almost at the end. I ate avocado toast and a green tea latte. I spent $25. Expensive, but I needed to treat myself. Afterwards, I felt a bit refreshed. Still a bit heavy, but better. I listened to Landslide as a I drove to the kids school to pick them up- Maelyn and Marshall spent the day with Eric btw and he took them to the park and sent me pictures of them with the ducks at the park. I thought about how if I made the right decision again. How I should be there for the kids. But I have to accept that I won’t be there the whole time anymore. And then I thought about how this was his intention-to make me feel that guilt, that jealously, all a plot for me to get back together with him. I picked the kids up and took Mikayla to Walmart to pick up what she wanted for her bday. She got a bike, helmet, toy phone, and I got the kids and her classmates some stuff too. Spent over $200. But it is her birthday after all. 5 is a big number. I should have hosted a party but I can’t afford it because Eric isn’t working. And I have to pay for his registration. It makes me angry. How I have to pay for his car, insurance, registration - and I get it. He doesn’t work. But he won’t even offer to take the kids to school or pick them up. I have to do it still. Little traits like this, I realize how selfish he is. How selfish he has always been. He brought the two kids over to drop them off. He could have watched them overnight at his parents but he didn’t. Again. Selfish. He picked up some clothes to wear tomorrow. I asked for help to move the broken TV and worn down tv stand but he didn’t help. He just left. Again. Selfish.
We talked a bit about his plans for getting a job and studying. How he’s considering himself a single dad. He’s not begging for me back. He isn’t sad. Literally took him fast to recover. I wonder sometimes if he truly loved me or if he just loved the vision of what we represented-a complete family. But the answer doesn’t bother me. It doesn’t hurt like it did two years ago.

If I see one more person complaining about having to vote for joe biden again, sowing general resentment and apathy towards voting, communicating to people it doesn’t matter, there’s no difference between the “two old white guys” I’m gonna start commenting crimes like y’all sound like “uggghhh the non-hitler wannabe option just like really doesn’t do it for me enough to care to vote at all” YOU SOUND SO STUPID AND I FUCKING HATE YOU.
SO MANY of the negative repercussions we’re facing today in 2024 are directly because of trump’s 4 years as president he did SO MUCH DAMAGE in such a short amount of time that we will be recovering from for a LONG TIME. Perfectionism is so obscenely harmful but especially in politics. If we actually managed to have the perfect presidential candidate to vote for in November THEY WOULD NOT GET ELECTED because the country is not ready as much as that sucks complaining and being like “Joe biden lost my vote for supporting Israel” does not punish joe biden or the democrats it punishes ALL OF US INCLUDING GAZA by opening the door to a fucking fascist who has literally said if he gets re-elected he’s not leaving the white house. HOW can you fuckers have such a short memory with this istg I’m just screaming and pulling my hair out in rage and frustration. This country is so fucking broken and trying for a couple years only to give up when things don’t go perfectly only helps the people who want things to stay exactly the same/roll our rights back even more.
We can be critical of the system we’re forced to participate in while still being SMART and strategic. We would have had so many more democratic presidents if you fuckers who hate the two party system and therefore “refuse to participate” hadn’t split votes/opted out of voting. I’ve spent my life watching dems spend their whole presidency trying to fix the problems of the last republican caused and JUST as shit starts to get back to “neutral” another republican gets elected and ruins everything again and the cycle continues over and over and over and we barely get anywhere.
I KNOW. I Know the system sucks and is broken and everything is terrible and everyone is too old and democrats aren’t liberal enough but we are still actively trying to keep a fascist out of office so truly just shut the fuck up, suck it up and do what needs to be done and make sure everyone in your life knows to do the same. Don’t be one of those people who treated voting in 2016 like a joke or just didn’t vote and then spent every day after that regretting they opened the door for trump. If you don’t vote for biden you WILL regret it later. Learn from the mistakes of people from literally just 8 years ago I’m BEGGING. Because the difference between joe biden and trump COULD NOT BE BIGGER don’t fall for the defeatist propaganda telling you it doesn’t so just don’t bother. That is exactly what trump wants.

Let's Bake! JaeHyuck Edition
Tumblr media
The Neo's have been begging Jae In to bake another treat for them so she decided to recruit her whiniest complainer Hyuck to help her bake this time.

Let's Bake JaeJae vers.
Genre: fluff, idol au, NCT 24th member oneshot, JenoxJaein
Masterlist: here
Fic recs: YuuYuu2
a/n: Please note that all of this is fictional and the personalities of the characters are made specifically for the story! Please do not copy the story and post it elsewhere or on Tumblr!
Please don't try to imitate this recipe because it's made up! Don't attack me if you prefer to call pain au chocolate as chocolatine.
Let's Bake! JaeHyuck Edition is copyright 2024 under yunojeyes, all rights reserved.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"ASSAA I GET TO FILM WITH JAE INNIE ALONEEE!!" Hyuck squealed as he smooshed his cheek with Jae In's. Jae In crossed her arms huffing as her cheeks heat up because of Hyuck's excessive rubbing. "We're not alone Hyuck, Jeno is here too" Jae In mumbled as Hyuck bites her cheek softly. Hyuck ignored her grumbling as he continues to kiss her cheeks and rubbing his face on hers. Jeno takes his phone out to take a picture of the scene in front of him before pulling the collar of Hyuck's sweatshirt and tossing him away, wrapping his own arms around Jae In's waist and breathing in her sweet scent. Hyuck pouts, wrapping his arms around himself before smiling at the camera, "Hey guys, welcome to the best episode of Let's Bake, today I'm the assistant baker!" Hyuck announced as he clapped his hands together.
"Today we are going to bake sleeping bear pain au chocolat or chocolatine, however y'all call it, Hyuck who's been my whiniest most annoying complainer thoroughly enjoyed the apple pie hearts Jaemin and I made in the previous episode of Let's Bake, which is why I have recruited him to help me bake this time" Jae In said as Hyuck nodded while pumping his fist in the air excitedly. "Hyuck is actually a great cook so I hope he can put his skills to use today." Jae In said, "Aww how sweet~" Hyuck said as he caressed her hair, Jeno grumbling with a pout on his face. "Baby Jeno has also joined us today because he misses me so much." Hyuck said as he caressed Jeno's nape who squinted his eyes at Hyuck.
"I came here because I know Jae In needs moral support when dealing with you." Jeno said as he kissed Jae In's forehead. Hyuck tsked as he rolled his eyes, "Yeah right, I'm the one who needs moral support seeing as I'm the one that has to deal with your pda." Hyuck said as he grabbed Jae In's arm, clinging unto it. "Anyways, unto the video, we're going to bake the sleeping bear pain au chocolate first, for this you'll need, dough, you can use pre-made homemade dough or store-bought dough, if you want a dough recipe you can tag me on Instagram or twitter for it. You’ll need 4 chocolate squares for each pain au chocolat, since we'll be making a mass batch, we need at least 100 chocolate bars, a bear cookie per pain au chocolat, 2 eggs and powdered sugar which is optional." Jae In said as Hyuck and Jeno posed with the ingredients as she listed them off.
"First thing we need to do after washing our hands is to flatten out the dough with a rolling pin, I'll leave that to Hyuck, Jeno-ssi please cut the chocolate bar into pairs while I preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius." Jae In said as both Jeno and Hyuck saluted her before doing their jobs. "Hyuck... what are you doing?" Jae In asked as Hyuck stopped rolling the dough. "I'm doing what you told me to do." he said as he looked at her like he'd done something wrong. "Yeah, but why isn't there flour on the dough, how do you think you're supposed to roll it smoothly if it's sticky?" she asked as she powdered some flour unto the dough, pulling the sticky dough on the rolling pin and kneading it as Jeno laughed at Hyuck's embarrassed face.
"Oops.." Hyuck said as he headed over to Jeno, hugging him from behind. "Hyuck, you can help Jeno, he has a lot of chocolate to cut anyways." Jae In said as she wiped her hands to ruffle his hair to which he smiled cheekily before skipping to Jeno to help him cut the chocolate. Jae In washed her hands before rolling the dough with the rolling pin. "Now cut the dough into large rectangles, whatever size you desire, then place 2 pairs of chocolate unto the dough, one on top and one on the bottom then put a bear biscuit on the one on top since it's gonna be the bear's pillow, then place the flap on the bottom to overlap until the lower body of the bear biscuit, then using a fork, press on the sides to seal the dough but not until it goes through the dough, just do it gently." Jae In guided Jeno and Hyuck through the procedure as the camera shows her demonstrating how to create it.
"Yahhh it's so cuteee!" Hyuck squealed as he placed his sleeping bear pain au chocolat on his palm to show Jae In who smiled at his excitement and towards the camera. "Good job Hyuck, how about you baby." Jae In said as she caressed his hair, he looked up at her with his signature smile, "this is fun" he said as Jae In giggled, kissing his nose as he scrunched his nose. "Jae Innieee what do I do now" Hyuck whined as he cuddled into her side, "You can apply egg wash unto all of them." Jae In said as she removed Hyuck's arms around her waist and sat on Jeno's lap as Jeno wrapped his arms around her waist. Hyuck like an excited child applied the egg wash unto all of the sleeping bear pain au chocolat while Jae In smiled watching him like his mother.
"Okay done!" Hyuck said as looked up from his work to see Jae In smiling at him, "okay so now we need to wait for 20 minutes." Jae In said as she placed the trays in the oven and set the timer. "Okay now that the pastries have cooled down we can add some powdered sugar unto them with a sift." Jae In explained as she gently sifted powdered sugar unto the pastries. "Cha, now you can eat as many pastries as you want while I package the ones on this tray for the members." Jae In said as Hyuck and Jeno ran to the pastries and took a bite of them before groaning in delight well, except for Hyuck who pretended to pass out. "That tastes so goodddd noona!" Hyuck said as teared up, "Are you crying Hyuck?" Jae In laughed as she saw him wipe his tears.
The room was filled with satisfaction as everyone enjoyed the pastries, Jeno cuddling Jae In in gratitude and awe as chewed on the pastries. He fed her as she packed the pastries, not letting Jeno or Hyuck help her because she didn't want them to touch the packaging with their buttery fingers and potentially stain the notes she'd written for the members.
"Thank you for watching this episode of Let's Bake JaeHyuck edition feat my baby Jeno, let me know who you'd like to see next on Let's Bake, I'm thinking either Taeyong oppa, Yuta oppa or Johnny oppa, I hope you guys enjoyed watching, see you next time, bye!" Jae In said as she waved goodbye at the camera with a smile on her face, Jeno and Hyuck waving goodbye along with her as they bowed in a straight line, "감사합니다, 사랑합니다 (thank you, we love you)" they said as they smiled each of their signature smiles.

This is how the most colossal and fragile ego on the planet deals with losing the US election: he does not deal with it at all.
My uncle’s speech late on election night wasn’t just entirely mendacious from beginning to end. It was also deeply dangerous. It’s one thing for random Republicans to call a legitimate election into question, but this was the head of the government. The consequences of that action should not be underestimated.
This is what Donald’s going to do: he’s not going to concede, although who cares. What’s worse is he’s not going to engage in the normal activities that guarantee a peaceful transition. All he’s got now is breaking stuff, and he’s going to do that with a vengeance. I’ve always known how cruel he can be. Shortly after the 2016 election, when I’d see him being particularly cruel, I would think about how he treated my father [Fred Trump Jr, Donald’s older brother, who died of alcoholism at 43]. He took away our family health insurance after his father, my grandfather, died – this was when my nephew needed round-the-clock nursing care, which we then couldn’t afford. That is the kind of man he is.
After January, things look bleak for Donald. He has $400m of debt coming. Why would his lenders pay him any slack?
He’ll be having meltdowns upon meltdowns right now. He has never been in a situation like this before. What’s interesting is that Donald has never won anything legitimately in his entire life, but because he has been so enabled by people along the way, he has never lost anything either. He’s the kind of person who thinks that even if you steal and cheat to win, you deserve to win.
But there is some poetic justice here because he has been cheating for months. Now his tactics are coming back to bite him. He told Republicans not to vote by mail and they didn’t, but the result is he has been experiencing this slow drip-drip of disaster over the past few days. Oh, you have these huge margins! Now your margins are shrinking. Oh, Joe Biden’s ahead. Now his margins are growing. It must have been like slow torture, but he set up this failure for himself.
The fact that the Republicans have done better than expected in Congress and the Senate will have made him extraordinarily angry. It means that people were voting against Donald Trump in this election, but not necessarily against this party. That will have added so much salt to his narcissistic wounds.
Also, his supporters are going away. From what I understand, the thing that really ruined his election night was Fox News – his safe zone – calling Arizona days earlier than everyone else. That burst his bubble. Then Twitter was flagging all his posts and deleting them, and other more legitimate news outlets were cutting away from his speeches. But this begs the question: why weren’t they doing this a month ago, or even four years ago, before the last election? It’s good this is happening now because maybe the next two-and-half months won’t be the nightmare we expect, but it’s too late.
I worry about what Donald’s going to do in that time to lash out. He will go as far as he can to delegitimise the new administration, then he’ll pass pardons that will demoralise us, and sign a flurry of executive orders. Remember, he will also still be in charge of the US response to the pandemic. There could be a million Americans dead by then under his watch.
After January, things look bleak for Donald. He has more than $400m of debt coming in the next four years. Why at this point would his lenders cut him any slack? He has never paid anyone back. His businesses are in the tank. He has destroyed his brand.
He is going to be a factor in courtrooms in New York City more than he’s going to be a factor in politics, I think. His secretary of defence has already submitted his resignation, and I think there will be more of that. The Republicans might need him for the January run-offs in Georgia, but he could be considered a liability. If he’s acting like a crazy person, senators are going to keep their distance. People will move away from him if there’s nothing in it for them any more.
It’s not like he has any friends, anyway. It’s grim for him. Donald Jr, Ivanka and Eric also know their relationship with their father is both conditional and transactional. I have been saying since 2016 that I was going to have to change my name. I think they’re going to have to change theirs.
As for saying he’ll run in 2024, that’s just a face-saving exercise. It’s a way of distracting him from the fact that he’s probably going to prison. But the worst thing Donald’s looking at isn’t financial difficulties or the prospect of jail. It’s becoming irrelevant. I don’t think he would ever recover from that.

All the people who been saying send Killer Frost to Legends because they are tired of her on the Flash how about no? How about never? How about keep Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost far away from Jax as humanly possible? Yeah I think we should keep her as far as Jefferson Jackson as humanly possible.
Just think of what elitist, privileged, entitled, bitch Caitlin was to Jax when she was ‘good heroic’ Caitlin Snow under the guise of trying to help Martin. Her prejudge trumped her reasoning as medical doctor. It blinded her good sense to see what’s happening right in front of her with Barry treated like crap. Now let's think of what Caitlin Snow has done this season to her closest friends & loved ones trying to help? Oh yeah, refused to help save Barry & Iris two different unless begged and pleaded and betrayed them by keeping the stone for months. Giving the team an half assed apology while giving Julian the proper apology. Now let’s think of what Killer Frost has done and what she shown herself to truly be. Well, she betrayed everyone for Savitar instantly without hesitation, working with him to kill Iris, stabbed Barry, tried to murder him with killer kiss, tried to use the same move on Julian, attacked her closest friends, attacked and hurt people, the big stuff - froze Cisco’s hands off in 2024 future & isn’t sorry, enjoys Barry, Cisco, Julian and Wally’s pain in 2024, happy Iris is dead and has zero remorse or feeling for anyone or anything.
People want to ship her off to the Waverider? Excuse me? So she can go play queen bitch trying for redemption arc around Jax? No thanks. One of the kindness, bravest, heroes and my personal favorite after Cisco Ramon? He shouldn’t have to put up “good” Caitlin let any version of Killer Frost. Especially given all we know now about Killer Frost now. Jax deals with enough racism, bigotry and BS in general without adding one “the heroes” turn bad needing a redemption story who treated him like dirt. One the of “heroes” who’s every word to him as she treated him like garbage turned her into the world’s biggest hypnotic once she had the chance to be superhero herself. In case you tell I haven’t forgiven Caitlin for her treatment of Jax in Fury of the Firestorm. I don’t feel the episode dealt with properly. I didn’t have Barry calling her out on her awful behavior. She only half got why she was wrong and Jax forgave her easily. That episode along with how she treat King Snark’s wife should have the making of darkside not something brushed aside. It has been brushed aside which makes more peed off about it. Plus Jax is one of my favorite characters in DCtv verse so I’m protective of him.
I follow a lot of great people on tumblr who keep saying ‘ship her off to Legends’ because they don’t want Caitlin on the Flash anymore but they don’t want to see another woman fridged. I get that. If that’s how she treats the people she loves the most - if that’s how she treats Cisco - she freezes his hands off - I don’t want to see how she’ll treat someone she already looked down her nose at as Caitlin Snow. You know where actual interesting place Killer Frost could go to be bad guy? Arrow. Black Canary and Killer Frost had little interesting stuff going on in the comics and you know if Black Siren is the bad guy for season six Killer Frost might make for fun partner in crime. Two bad girls giving it their all might be more interesting than putting men of color through pain for redemption story for Killer Frost. If it was Ronnie as Firestorm on Legends then yeah that would be the place for Killer Frost but Ronnie’s not there Jax is. So how about we don’t put such an awful person near Jax? Consisting how awful she was to him when she was good and how ugly she is when she bad.
