road trip. you hand me a bottle. “we’ll drive until it’s empty then stop for more,” you say.

so you drive and drive and drive and I drink and drink and drink and sometimes you stop the car so I can wobble out to the woods by the road to pee and by the time the bottle is empty you pull into the parking lot of a liquor store.

you go in while I am left to stagger around outside, leaning on the car and giggling and hiccuping to myself. by the time you come back out, I’ve both peed in and removed my pants and underwear and am sitting in the passenger seat with my legs spread.

you pet my wet, drunk pussy and hand me a new bottle. “drink up,” you say, “when you’re done we’ll stop for more.”

and when we stop for the night and you carry me over your shoulder into our hotel room, you hand me one last bottle and make me cum until it’s empty.

Charles getting called out by a Redditor:

The offending Instagram post:

To be honest, I kind of had my suspicions about the sushi-eating photos from his flight from NYC to Austin. Dude had been bundled up like a Michelin Man in New York, and even in Austin he was wearing a sweater, but on the plane he was only in a t-shirt? Plus in the sushi-plane photos he was wearing a different ring than he's been wearing in NYC and Austin, along with what looks like the old Forza Ferrari bracelet that he hasn't worn on ages. I understand if he has to post stuff for his sponsors, but things like this do make me question how truthful he is with some of his content.

And while we have no way of knowing whether the Redditor is telling the truth, it's a reminder for us not to believe everything posted on social media. Btw, if the account is true, I can totally see Charles going to Business Class while poor Andrea and Joris have to sit in Economy. 🤭

#i wonder at times what these sponsor contracts specify #“must wear watch at all times even when on vacation” #“cannot drink red bull in public” #“can not wear more fan-made bracelets on same arm than apm bracelets” #“may not be seen fueling private car at petrol station other than shell” #it does feel sometimes like charles has become a walking billboard for his sponsors #charles leclerc #f1 sponsorships

now I wanna know- why isn't drinking water free in the US?

Hi there friend! Thanks very much for taking the bait from this post. Buckle up, this is a long one.

If you want to put out a cistern and collect rainwater and use that, congratulations! Your water is free! Plus the cost of maintaining your cistern and keeping it clean. If you’re lucky enough to live somewhere with a high enough water table to have a well, then your water is also free + the cost of the well and well maintenance.

But if you want water to come out of your tap on demand and you can’t or don’t want to maintain a cistern and you can’t or don’t want to have a well… you need public water!

How do we get public water? Well, a government entity (usually. there are some private utilities, but that’s a different post. I have strong feelings) has rights to take water out of a river or a lake, or they have a reservoir, or they have access to an aquifer. Then they have to transport the water out of the source. This generally requires aqueducts or massive pipes, which are expensive and need to be maintained, which is also expensive. The pipe leading out of one of my utility’s reservoirs is 12 feet in diameter.

Does the water go directly from the source to your home? Nope! It gets piped to a water filtration plant! The process of modern water filtration is complicated but it involves both physical and chemical treatment to make sure the water isn’t carrying any parasites, harmful bacteria, or pollutants and it has the right pH. Not only are these filtration plants extremely expensive to build and maintain but the process of operating them is extremely expensive, both in terms of hiring skilled staff and having appropriate materials for the filters and chemical treatment.

After the treated water (called “finished water” in the biz) is ready it does get piped to your house.

If you use public water, do you know where your local water filtration plant is? No? That probably means it’s not in your immediate neighborhood, which probably means it’s several miles or more away. To get to your house, the water needs to travel through an extensive pipe network. These pipes are smaller but they have to remain pressurized so that no contaminants can get into the water on its way to your house. But pipes break! Especially if you live somewhere with a freeze/thaw cycle. Maintaining this pipe network is, you guessed it, expensive! It requires materials and extremely skilled workers who perform in very very difficult conditions. Plus lots of engineering to keep the whole system pressurized even when one part of it breaks. Oh, and you know what lots of pipes were made out of in the early 20th century? Lead! So all around the country utilities need to make extensive and costly infrastructure upgrades because now we know lead pipes are really freaking bad.

Okay, so you get the basic picture. And I haven’t even gotten into Safe Drinking Water Act compliance, but most of that happens at the filtration plant. Oo! Or desalinization because some utilities pull their water from the sea and need to take the salt out. I know basically nothing about this except that it is likely complicated and expensive to do at scale.

This is essentially why I get frustrated by people who argue “why should we pay for something that falls out of the sky?” Because finished water doesn’t fall from the sky and it sure as hell doesn’t fall from the sky into your faucet. (Side note: as a public utility official I have been screamed at by the “it falls from the sky” people. A thing I like about the private sector is that people scream at me a lot less.)

Now, there is a very strong argument to be made that because water is necessary for human life, it should be provided by the government for free to everyone. And just like the costs of roads or public education, this should be part of the public budget and paid for by taxes and no one should have a water bill. I don’t disagree with this. I’m sure that’s how it’s done in some countries.

I don’t have a well-researched answer on the history of water utilities but I do have some facts and some (very) educated conjectures. Water rights in the US are complicated (another separate post!) but they’re based on private ownership. Ever since white people came to this country people have been claiming ownership over water and charging each other money for taking water out of rivers or lakes or the ground. You can measure how much of it someone uses and charge them for it. Water is treated like a commodity because unlike other public goods, it *can* be treated like a commodity and then, you know, capitalism. Again, I’m not saying that’s right.

But as a society, if we believe that no one should have a water bill, then we need to figure out how to pay for all the very expensive steps in the process I outlined at the top. Could that just be taxes? Sure, if you have a system that supports taxes at that level. Do I believe that public funding of water infrastructure would be a fuckton better than a lot of things we use taxes for now? Absolutely! But that requires massive institutional change and this isn’t generally an issue that people know enough about to demand change.

If you read this far, congratulations! You now know more stuff about drinking water!

sighs. snuggling up close to lilia and hiding your heated face against his chest because he’s just so dreamy and you feel so safe and protected in his embrace, recalling back to the days when you thought he wouldn’t even see you this way. his soothing lullabies that lures you to dreamland, his reassuring touch lingering on you, drawing random shapes on your skin and making you guess them. his calm and deep chuckle when you barely said your answer coherently. “Sleepy already?” and lightly pinches your cheek when you nod a little against him and hums a response. hugging him just a little tighter and breathes in his scent, smiling to yourself when you feel him kissing the crown of your head.

"SPECIAL PROVINCIAL SQUAD WILL ENFORCE LIQUOR ACT," Toronto Star. January 11, 1943. Page 4. ---- Hotelkeepers Have Got to "Keep Hotel," Says Premier Conant ---- WALTER IN CHARGE ---- For "adequate enforcement" of the Liquor Control Act and regulations in Ontario, a provincial police liquor squad has been formed, Premier Gordon D. Conant amnounced last night.

Inspector Philip Walter of the Ontario provincial police in charge of No. 1 district at Windsor has been promoted to staff inspector and will be in command of the new squad.

Members of the new department will be trained in liquor control law and their special duties by qualified officers under the direction of W. B. Common of the attorney-general's department. Mr. Common will be counsel for the squad.

"It will be the duty of the liquor squad," Mr. Conant stated, "to enforce the regulations in all municipalities which have not passed by-laws to undertake the enforcement and to supplement the work of municipal police in all other municipalities."

With members stationed in Tronto and each of the other 12 provincial police districts, the squad will be a mobile force so that any required member may be moved quickly to any part of the province.

"Policing by municipal forces has not proved adequate for many reasons," Mr. Conant charged. "It is the intention of the government that the L.C.A. and the regulations shall be obeyed by all hotelkeepers and by all citizens. Hotelkeepers have got to 'keep hotel' and citizens patronizing beverage rooms must conduct themselves in accordance with the act. We hope that the municipal police will see that these things are done. We are determined that, by means of the liquor squad, they will be done."

Like genuinely. He was putting his hand on her waist after an hour of reciprocated cuddling. He should have asked for explicit consent but instead read her non verbal cues wrong. Ok that’s on him!! But when she explicitly showed disinterest towards doing anything with him he walked away no bother.

Idk this whole thing has been blown up far too much. Sexual predator, rapist, pedophile … come on to fuck this is so unnecessary 😭 his initial statement was bad which yeah he deserves some lashings for but not doxxing, death threats and reporting him to immigration, losing longterm friends like what the fuck are we doing here. Do these people realise people like Adin Ross and Mizkif are happily raking it in streaming every day?

agree with you 100% anon. his biggest mistake is not getting verbal consent. yes non-verbal consent exists and that’s probably what he was going off of but verbal consent is a must with people you barely know or it ends up like this. though again, he was drunk. and it’s interesting to me how being drunk only seems to matter to people when its her and not him, they were both drunk. two adults who were drunk.

the most important thing to me is that when she showed very clear disinterest by not going with him to his room, he backed off. it makes me feel less crazy to think if she had said she was uncomfortable (if he had freaking asked) he would’ve stopped.

#like hes not a mind reader he didnt know she was uncomfortable which is why he shouldve asked #but again #drunk #so #like this is one big misunderstanding between two people who were drink #*drunk #he didnt grope her in public or take her back to his room or whatever #idk theres way worse people in the cc sphere #nova.ask
