As someone who works in a pharmacy, I cannot put into words just how much I want to pull my hair out when it comes to these diabetic “weight loss” drugs. There is a certain amount of pain involved when I finally manage to get some pens in for my patients and I realize only maybe two of five actually need it, at best. The other three all make some off-handed comment of “oh, thank god this finally came in! I swear, nothing drops pounds better!” It’s not the drug, you simpletons, it’s just making you eat less. If you consider losing weight more important than preserving a diabetic’s quality of life, if not just life, then practice some self-control! Sorry for the rant.
The weight loss crowd is getting worse than the opioid crowd, I swear…
Wow yeah I can imagine. And don't worry about the rant, haha - if anything quite relatable.
It's just frustrating; I'm fairly sure you can't actually get diabetes medication prescribed for weight loss in the nordics where I live, but since the problem is global and systemic, the fact that it happens elsewhere still affects what supply we have up here, too. Ignoring grey markets and such which I'm sure does happen up here as well.
And like, sure, I know it's a systemic problem and that individual actions are generally more a symptom than a cause and all that, but I'm also not feeling particularly sympathetic at the moment, probably at least in part due to my blood sugar values being kind of shit right now because I don't have any of one of the kinda important medicines I need to take to not have any of that happen due to there being a global shortage For Some Inexplicable Reason.
What makes this extra annoying is that there is a brand name of these kinds of substances specifically intended for weight loss. Which has a lower production priority for a reason. And then because of the shortage, a bunch of these people somehow manage to get prescribed the ones specifically for diabetics? Without being diabetic??
Have to say, really wishing I could just move my diabetes over to one of them instead. If they want the meds so bad, let them have the sickness too. Me, I'd rather not have to deal with either, but some of us don't get that choice.

PARTY FAVOURS I A THIRSTY INTERLUDE
First time reader click here
Tumblr media
Bun Bun at 2:30 AM posting: This is 110% pornography. I wrote that when I was feeling extra thirsty over Tony and his Nano suit so yeah... A bit of choking a bit of mild suit bondage. Daddy kink 👉🏻👈🏻🥺 BDSM themes. Humor & porn. Has minimal correlation with the story and can be read as standalone smut-shot. Inspired by this NSFW tik tok audio (headphones!).
Tumblr media
"OH MY GOD, NO! NO, NO, SHIT, FUCK, NO!"
"Princess, what's wrong?" Steve's worried voice rang high in the kitchen, followed by an alarming clattering of the dishes against the sink. "Are you hurt?" He didn't even remark on my use of profanity, which meant I'd startled the Captain for sure. He appeared in the doorway ready to fight, run; his eyes immediately drawn to his shield in the corner.
"Only what's left of my dignity," I sighed.
"Oh, okay," He visibly sagged, tension leaving his voice and his body. "What happened?"
I inhaled several times, feeling heat creep up my neck and blossom on my cheeks. It took a lot, and I mean A LOT, to make me feel embarrassed enough to fumble my words and palm my face but that was exactly what I did. "Well, umm... Tony found a couple of thirst tweets. Mine, from my sophomore year. And uh, retweeted them." I thought I'd cleaned up my social media quite well, actually. My fingers twitched remembering manually sorting through thousands of posts. Apparently, my fingers weren't clever enough.
Steve snorted, evidently having had someone tell him what a thirst tweet was. He, however, did not understand the sheer mortification that I would be subjected to at the hands of Tony. And my classmates. And Peter, oh my God. Natasha and Wanda too, probably. And Loki.
I. Was. Toast.
"How bad was it?" Bucky piped up, finally having dealt with the mini laughter fit.
"Not worse than what you two get up to in the gym when you think nobody is home," I immediately retorted in hopes of avoiding teasing from the metal-armed man. He would take the chance, of course, he would.
"Oof, I'm sorry, doll," Bucky whistled sympathetically. And promptly pulled out his phone, to, what I assumed, see the offending social media posts for himself. I assumed correctly. Bucky was bent over laughing in no time - was it my doing or did Tony's own commentary on them that made the whole situation so hilarious to the gramps on steroids?
"I will light you on fire," I seethed but remained where I was standing. There was no point in doing anything about them now. Screenshots were probably already being saved on everybody's devices.
Steve peeped over his boyfriend's shoulder, chuckling. "You had a crush on Tony? That's embarrassing, doll." He had the audacity to give me an innocent smile before returning to his dishwashing.
"Punk, I don't know if - and I quote: Not to be That Girl™ - it's trademarked, by the way - but Tony Stark could hit it and quit it and I wouldn't even be mad - qualifies as a crush." Bucky pointed out, the sound of his voice being drowned out by Steve's guffaws. "And this one definitely does not qualify for it to be a romantic setting. Listen: I'm not a fucking bottom, okay?.. there are seventeen question marks. But, like, can Tony Stark choke me in one of his Iron Man suits - nine more question marks." Bucky joined his partner's laughter, unable to continue.
I was literally on fire. My face burned, my hands shook. I had the strongest urge to stick my index fingers in my ears and loudly yell "la-la-la" until both fossils ceased to roast me like I was some sort of holiday brisket. "I hate you. I will burn... The heart... Out of you," I seethed.
"O-oh, honey bu-un, da-arling..." I heard Tony's sing-song voice happily calling for me. Too happily. Not good.
I had literal seconds to get myself scarce out of this situation. I'd already avoided the dozen text messages, two calls in hopes the engineer would drop the topic and go back to his Big Bad Science Project. I had underestimated his persistent desire to cause chaos and his terrible, no-good sense of humor.
It was fun and games when we teamed up to prank our friends. I just never expected for the tables to be turned this way, y'know? Betrayal of the highest quality. The turntables had been turned - decidedly NOT in my favor.
In a brief moment of panicked clarity, I opened one of the empty bottom cabinets in the kitchen. It took some uncomfortable folding and maneuvering but I got myself inside and pressed the door shut seconds before his footsteps made the distinctive noise of sneakers on tile.
"Capsicle, Terminator," I heard Tony greet the two laughing supersoldiers. "Have you seen my Princess?"
I melted a little bit at the way Tony called me his, I won't lie.
"Nope," Bucky lied shamelessly.
"She's in the empty cabinet," Steve chuckled at the same time. Top 10 anime betrayals, right there.
"Wow - and I thought we were friends," Tony scoffed, I assumed at Bucky. My body tensed and I prepared to dial-up my puppy eyes to eleven. My hiding spot was wack.
The door was roughly tossed open, my eyes landing on Tony's oil-stained jeans. He crouched down, his brown eyes positively sparkling. The engineer's body radiated smug mischief, fingers twitching in anticipation.
"Sorry, Princess is unavailable right now. May I take a message?" I said, pulling on the cabinet door and fully prepared to slam it shut in his face. I was NOT ready for any more mortification.
Tony's chuckle shook me to the core, louder and ten times more expressive in the cramped, dark space of my temporary lair. "Come on out, baby girl. I didn't peg you for a wallflower."
"Duly noted," I said warily, having been expecting for him to drag me out and carry me to his bedroom, caveman style. I had noticed that my dorky self revved up his gears faster than any stereotypical seductive shit. It was no secret, at least not for us 'vengers, that Tony was a huge dork himself but I guess it takes one to know one.
"So, my suits, huh?" He smirked after a brief moment and just like that, I Did Not Like Where This Was Going. The receding footsteps and quiet snickering only confirmed my suspicions. Tony's form blocked the opening of the cabinet, crowding me even further into the already cramped space.
"Um," I found myself pretty much speechless. Part of me was excited and yearning - of fucking course I was curious if Tony Stark, genius and former playboy, had found a way to incorporate his suits of armor into the bedroom. Daresay, it was the question of the decade, according to Cosmopolitan, GQ, and a whole lot of other large media outlets.
The more sensible part of me screamed shame for that, playing with an essentially massive, powerful destruction machine. Something meant to protect millions of people from bad guys and aliens. It seemed blasphemous to waste such an important thing on scratching a curious itch.
I blinked owlishly, squirming.
"Okay, out you go." Tony's patience had run out and he withdrew himself, promptly standing up.
I heard the tapping of his fingers as I ungracefully stumbled out. He was occupied with his tablet so I turned around to adjust myself and the things on the countertop I had accidentally jostled in my rush to preserve some dignity.
An arm snaked around my waist, cold and unyielding, brushing against my exposed midriff with metal fingertips. Goosebumps followed the touch as I shivered involuntarily, stuttering in my breathing. "Fuck." The sound came out as if it was punched out of my throat with force, breathy.
"What's your safeword?" Tony's neatly groomed beard scratched against my ear. His voice was heavy and his lips were moist.
"Banana," I blurted the first thing that came into my mind. My body was hot and yet, I froze in place. The sheer power that the man behind me contained demanded unyielding obedience. I had no choice but to comply.
"Friday, lock the door. Nobody but me, in and out." Tony growled, pulling my hips into his metal-covered form.
Were we really doing this in the communal kitchen? With Steve and Bucky probably fully aware of what exactly was going on in here? Tony seemed to have zero reservations about that; in fact, I was almost sure he'd orchestrated the whole thing somehow. Steve owed like a dozen favors to the engineer.
The thick of Tony's leg firmly wedged itself between my thighs, spreading them open just enough so I was forced to put a slight arch in my back to keep still, my ass and shoulders firmly pressing against his Iron Man suit. I felt the coldness of the metal through my clothes, heard the hum of the nanobots in my ears.
My blood responded, heartbeat pulsing in my ears in sync with the electrical currents supplying the man behind me with the immense physical power to match his mental one. "Shit," The sound of my voice was faint. His other arm began creeping up my side to my shoulders, making an unmistakable beeline for my neck.
Tony applied firm pressure on it, wrapping the gauntlet carefully - not restricting the airflow, just steering me as he wished. And apparently, he had some very strong ideas about my current predicament: "Got me right where you wanted me?" He asked, low and breathy.
As I attempted to make noise, his hand tightened on my throat. Eyelids involuntarily sliding closed, my lips shook with the force it took me to muster up enough oxygen to hum a sloppy. "Mhm..."
"Can't hear you, baby girl," His cheek rested against mine, scratchy and hot and smelling like iron and gasoline and Tony.
Another shaky breath, I attempted to force the words out - for some reason, Tony's presence commanded me to obey him like never before. I nearly shivered from the sheer aura of power surrounding my man and it was his cue to lessen the careful pressure on my throat - just enough for blood to rapidly rush to my ears, making the world even hazier. "Yeah, Tony," It didn't take me much time to give him the enthusiastic consent he was looking for.
"Uh-uh," Tony tutted cheerfully. His other arm snaked around my waist, dipping lower to play with the hem of my skirt. God bless me for wearing a skirt! The rough pads of his fingertips scratched against the soft, sensitive flesh of my inner thighs. "I think we're past first name basis, baby," The suit retracted, mostly. The nanotech allowed for different parts of it to cover Tony's body in odd places: I felt the gauntlets and the arm braces, as well as part of a chest plate, but waist down my man was wearing simple jeans and tee.
"Uh," My brain supplied unhelpfully, feeling the bulge pressing against my ass. "Daddy?"
"That's my girl," I was rewarded with a groan, so sinful and delicious, falling from his lips straight into my ear. The hand that had gone down south cupped the mound of my pussy with a tender gesture. "Or Iron Man's?" He teased, grinding into me from behind.
"Yours," I keened obediently, my body seeming to find it impossible to decide between rubbing myself on his hand and his cock. It was a hard choice - pun absolutely intended. I was long uncomfortable in my panties and Tony's clever digits surely felt it, yet he made no further moves. "Daddy," I tried to put how much I ached for him into words.
Tony hummed, placing his wet mouth on the juncture of my neck for a moment. His hot breath seared my skin. The curious fingers finally, finally, reached the apex of my thighs. "Fuckin' shit, baby, you're..." He didn't bother finishing the sentence, speaking with his actions instead, scissoring his fingers between my labia, running the knuckles over my clit.
Just to feel me pant and shiver. I was sensitive and so aroused it was nearly unbearable. Tony always made me feel some type of way and, once again, my man had outdone himself. There was no shame left in me as I shifted my hips to the rhythm of his hand.
"Please?" I asked him prettily, knowingly that one little word would get me everything I wanted. A hard fucking, a new dress, a car, or, Hell, my own private island. My eyes were pretty when I begged, he had said. I would move the world for you, he had meant.
"Baby," The whisper was rushed as Tony turned me around and claimed my lips, hoisting my ass onto the marble countertop of the common kitchens. My legs wrapped around his hips, seeking the warmth and relief of his skin on mine. I wanted him inside of me, inconvenient location and two layers of clothing be damned. I wanted to bury myself in him until either of us couldn't tell who started and ended where.
"Daddy," I whispered into the thin line of his mouth, conveying my all-consuming need in a single word.
My skirt was hiked up in a second, the gauntlets of his suit still on his hands tearing my pants in a single clean motion. Eagerly, I scooted forward to pop the button on his jeans; grateful for the fact more often than not, Tony choose to forgo the belt whatsoever when working in the lab. Today was my lucky day.
His cock, red and thick and hard enough to pound nails with, weighed my hand down for barely a second beforehand Tony's gauntlets closed around both of my wrists, securing them to my chest. His other arm swiftly wrapped around me, pulling me close to him, as close as we could be together without sharing a single body. The blunt tip of his manhood stood at my entrance - not just teasing it but seeking permission.
One keen that seemed to come from deep insight my chest and I felt Tony's breath hitch as our sensitive flesh met; he filled me up at least as superbly as I hugged him. We shared a moan and a breath, just feeling each other, feeling the moment.
We were short on patience. Tony's hand slid onto the small of my back, urging our hips to meet each other, setting a punishing pace from the very start.
"Fuck, Daddy, oh God," I panted. I wasn't used to getting things started with so little prep.
"Baby," Tony rumbled, trying for stern, having it come out as breathless as I felt. "Shit, so fuckin' tight," His words garbled.
The sound of flesh slapping flesh was loud, perhaps, loud enough for certain enhanced folk to hear should they happen to pass the kitchen doors - and if that didn't make my insides clench in the most delectable ways.
Tony grunted in response, a lewd noise adding to the cacophony. "Gonna come?" His teeth caught my bottom lip, pulling it slightly. "For Daddy?" He asked, all traces of his usual cockiness gone, as he pulled away slightly to stare right in my wide eyes with his baby doe browns, equally blown with lust and longing.
Neither of us would last. "Yes, fuck, Daddy, please," I begged.
His hips angled just right, Tony continued mercilessly railing me, holding up my weak body between his arms. I felt the cold metal of the gauntlets through my shirt. The shivers ran across my skin in heaps, like busy little ants.
"Come for Daddy," Tony ordered, yanking me closer to hit that sweet spot deep inside of me. I couldn't resist the command, feeling the waves build up with every brutal stroke, clenching, muffling the screaming of my release in the crook of his neck, relishing in the growl that left his lips as he followed me, releasing my arms and folding his torso over mine. "Fuck," Was the only coherent word that left Tony's mouth, his seed creating a sticky mess between our legs.
"Yeah," I moaned, unwilling to part from him. It was intense. My world was spinning on its axis and my Tony was the center of it. He said something again, something soft and quiet, and my only concern was to rub my nose on his pulse point, to savor and remember the smell of our shared pleasure.
"Baby..." Tony sounded... Concerned. He withdrew slowly, frowning at my sleepy state. His frown only intensified when I absentmindedly rubbed my wrists - there were bound to be some marks left from the force of his grip. It was hot and it was... A surefire way to tell the suits weren't really adapted for bedroom games. Kitchen games.
"Daddy," I mumbled, sounding sad and pathetic to my own ears. I kind of wanted to cuddle and watch a movie but it seemed weird asking that from Tony since we've done crazier things and I had never felt like this, never got this greedy.
"Oh, baby, c'mere," He had come to some sort of conclusion. After re-doing his pants and picking up the scraps of fabric that used to be my panties, his arms made a comfortable nest. I was picked up without any troubles; the gauntlets had disappeared, too, into the thin golden bracelets around his wrists. I allowed myself to play with them, the shiny colors doing a good job of distracting me all throughout the brisk walk through the main living room and the swift elevator ride.
Tony's bed was messy, unmade and smelled like us - just the way I had left it that morning. Tony's hands were gentle as he stripped me and then swiftly chucked his own clothes.
"Watcha' doin'?" I asked as he wrapped his body around mine.
"Shh, we'll talk later," He murmured, looking slightly dazed himself. "Friday, put Stardust on the TV. 25% volume," As soon as the command was spoken, one of my comfort movies began playing on the large screen. Tony's hand kept stroking my hair and I didn't resist the temptation to close my eyes, settling into a peaceful lull atop the glowing white-blue of Tony's arc reactor.
My favorite color in the world, to be honest. It felt like I'd slept for ages when I opened my eyes to see the color again. "Um, hi," I supplied meekly, feeling way out of my depths from my own strange behavior.
"Mornin', Princess," Tony seemed joyful, the bags under his eyes a little less prominent than before.
I made moves to get out of the bed but he wrapped an arm around me, tugging me closer. "What do you know about sub drop?" He questioned me, in response to my vaguely confused noises.
That's what it was?!

On Han Seo's Death
(Pls someone tell me why I'm writing so much about this show).
Anyways, to begin with, I really do not think death is the completion of a character arc for anyone ever (watch Bojack Horseman lads), unless the character actively wants to die or they're terminally ill coming to terms with their death etc.
Especially when a character was redeemed as well as Han Seo, was given so many reasons to live (reminds me of Lee Rang from ToTNT), it is really cruel to take that away from him. It's even worse that he dies as the hands of his abuser, who he was finally breaking free from.
That being said, I did want to discuss how meaningful Han Seo's actions were, and would be even more so if he'd survived the attack.
First off, as he says, he's never helped anyone. Whatever the accuracy of the claim, the truth is he had always been under his brother's shadow, without any agency. He really never is an bad person, in fact he really does want to be good: the moment he gets autonomy he looks to run the company in a legal way, everything he did before was under his brother's orders. Now, he took it in his own hands and risked his life to do the right thing.
Even if the act has some meaning as his last deed when he dies, it's bad writing that he's not able to escape the clutches of his abuser.
Secondly, to stand up to his brother at all is incredibly brave. He's, as a victim of abuse form his brother, always tried to save himself and drag himself away from the line of fire. To overcome what must have been an ingrained instinct of self-preservation, and try to save someone else really is incredible, because as you see as soon as his brother gets physically violent Han Seo just freezes and is unable to move. To do it, not once, but twice, just wow.
In the end, I'd have infinitely preferred if he'd died any other way, or just not died at all, since it seems like bad writing to kill him off after so much development. But still, he was incredibly brave in what he did, but really really really should have survived the attack it would be absolutely fucking fantastic.

"Casey, we've talked about this already."
"Have we, really? Because I remember you talking - or yelling, more like - at me, while I just stood there, frozen. So, you know, you talked. I just listened."
"Well, your silence was answer enough, Casey."
"What? No! You see, that's it. My problem is that I turn into a harebrained teenager talking to his crush every time I'm with you and even think of confessing the extent of my feelings for you. You've left me struggling to catch my bearings around you every single time since we've kissed. First with that question about Gabby, which seemingly came out of nowhere, and I believe we both interpreted to mean two very different things, and the abruptness of it all just made my brain stop functioning for a few moments. And then, just like now, you go ahead and assume things. Your self-preservation kicks in and then you just start running. You leave our conversations half done, with you saying your piece, but not hearing mine; telling me I'm in love with Gabby and that you and I can never happen again."
"So, you're saying whatever's happened between us is my fault? Tell me, Matt, am I also to blame for you sleeping with Sydney?"
"I'm not blaming you, Sylvie! I'm saying it's both our faults. And I only went out with her because you told me we could never happen again and when it comes to matters of the heart, I'm not a very intelligent man, Sylvie. I didn't know what to do so I tried to move on from you. Which, FYI, worked splendidly beca-"
"Oh wow, oh if it worked so splendidly, then why the heck are we even talking about this? You've moved on! Great, problem solved!"
"Good God, Sylvie, I was being sarcastic! Giving you space didn't do me any good! As it turns out, there is no moving on from you. I moved on from Gabby just fine. But you? Even trying to move on from you only makes it worse. How can you move on from someone you're wholeheartedly in love with?
"I'm not in love with Gabby, Sylvie. I stopped being in love with her a long time ago. The night of the fundraiser gala was my closure; for once, I got to walk away from her and I was the one to finally close the door on that relationship. Sylvie, I caught feelings for you all the way back sometime after the divorce was finalized, way before the Chaplin came into the picture. I admit I made a dumb mistake pushing you to him, but those feelings? They never went away. They're still here, strong as ever. That has to mean something. I don't believe they're going away. And I don't want them to."
" Matt..."
"I know you've moved on, and as much as it pains me, Grainger is a good guy. I wish you all the happiness in the world. That's all I have wanted for you, even when it's not with me. But I'm beyond tired of people telling me how I feel, who I love. Especially when they're wrong. So, for goodness's sake, Sylvie, please stop believing I still love Gabby. And please stop telling me I do."
