a/n: a generalized version of another secret santa entry !!

Spain's beaches are always a sight to behold, no matter the time of day.

The sun has long disappeared into the horizon, the sky now pitch black with only the night lights from the festivities a few metres away illuminating the area. The balcony you’re currently lounging on is two-storey high, the sound of joyful chatters and laughter filling your ears as a cool draught of air softly whips over the tresses of your hair.

Leaning against the railing as your eyes remain locked on the waves gently lapping up the shore, you tuck a loose strand behind your ear and reminisce about the times you’d spent in other wonderful places such as this, most of the time courtesy of your boyfriend.

Sae, the ever-so-nonchalant man that he is, rarely says it outright, but you know he loves having you around, loves having you close and within his reach, loves knowing you’re there waiting for him after each grueling day. Why else would he always have two tickets ready whenever he has an away game if not to bring you along on his trip? Why else would he book an entire beach house instead of staying at the hotel like the rest of his teammates?

Sure, the hours when he’s away for practice would feel a little lonely at times, but that’s the more reason for you to anticipate his return, for the reward he’d been saving for you at the end of the day will only grow sweeter.

Life with Sae can be gradual and relaxed, yet thrilling in the way that he would try to explore anything and everything with you, if only you’d so much as ask for it.

Life with him makes you feel… full. In more ways than one.

The sound of the door unlocking catches your attention, and the soft pitter patter of footsteps that follow only sends a rush of excitement through you. Soon enough, a pair of rough hands settle on your hips, a strong chest leaning against the span of your back.

“Have you been good, amor?” Your boyfriend whispers in your ear, his breath brushing against your skin almost in a seductive way. No ‘hi, hello, how’s your day?’ and whatnot. He gets straight to the point, as always.

That’s your man alright.

The corner of your lips curls upwards. “Hello to you too. What can I help you with today?” You cheekily ask.

The redhead scoffs, though in a lighthearted way. “You could help me with many things, love. How about we start with answering my question first, hm?” He says, causing you to playfully pout at his response, “Well, what do you think?”

Sae’s hands start to slowly move up and down on the side of your waist, warmth seeping from his touch through your clothes. A meek gesture, giving and nearly domestic in a way if not for the promise behind his next words.

“If I tell you what I think, you wouldn’t be able to properly stand in the next few minutes, amor.” He murmurs, hands drifting lower beneath the shirt you’re wearing before his fingers firmly spreads your asscheeks.

A gasp is pulled out of your mouth, the buttplug you’d been keeping inside you accidentally dragging against your ribbed walls from his ministrations.

He already figured it out, hasn’t he?

You were supposed to stay good. Keep the plug nice and warm inside your hole, no touching nor masturbation whatsoever until he gets back. But how could you not?

When Sae kept sending you those godforsaken thirst traps from his gym and practice sessions? The way his sinewy muscles stretched oh so deliciously against the fabric of his sweat-soaked shirt, the way his thick veiny thighs were bulging after the rigorous workout, and the freaking post-session shower?

You should’ve been considered a saint for the only thing you did was get yourself off one time the whole day with your fingers.

“Can’t blame a girl for having such wild fantasies,” you huff, feeling his fingers dipping into the heat between your thighs. With the lack of underwear on your side, Sae lowly hums when he makes contact with your slick, sounding both pleased at himself and dissatisfied with your answer.

“Well, would you look at that… you’re still dripping wet. This all from the pics I sent you?” Your eyebrows pinch together, trying to come up with a sarcastic remark as you eye the people who are walking by in the distance.

“I –“

“Fingers or tongue?” Sae cuts you off, catching you off guard. “W-wait – here?” You ask as you finally turn to look at him. His auburn hair softly blows with the night wind much like your own, and Sae tentatively reaches up to brush a hand through it. His lidded teal eyes gauge yours with a perfectly raised eyebrow as if in challenge.

You’re not one to say no to any of his advances, of course. After all, you’re just as freaky insatiable as he is, if not more.

Seeing an answer enough from the relaxed expression on your face, Sae decides for you. “My fingers it is then.”

Almost immediately, he plunges two digits into your sopping cunt, causing you to let out a surprised squeal. Gripping hard on the railing, your body starts squirming as he straight away sets a quick pace.

“Oh shit, Sae–“ Your breath trembles with each thrust of his thick fingers, more of your juices trickling down the inside of your thighs.

He doesn’t let up his speed. If anything, it only seems like he’s going faster with how much louder the gushing sound of your pussy can be heard. Your back bows slightly over the railing from how hard he’s going, though you don’t stay there long before you swivel your head back again, hand fisting at the collar of his crisp white shirt to roughly pull him down into a kiss.

Your little growl mixes with his grunt as your lips and teeth clash in a fiery dance. Your legs are on the verge of trembling, and you’re so so close to coming on his magical fingers.

Your boyfriend has always enjoyed seeing you unravel before him, enjoyed seeing you come undone so quickly even when he’s not using his dick to fuck you silly. You’re so pliant, so malleable under his touch, and yet you still got that fire in you to somehow fight him back.

You’re an insufferable brat, but you’re his insufferable brat. One whose pussy that he loves making a mess of.

At this point you don’t even care about the mass of passerby who could probably see you even from that far away. They can watch for all you care. In this moment, only you and Sae and the earth-shattering orgasms he’s gracing you with exist in this world.

(Though you’re a bit glad the house he rented isn’t smacked right on the centre of the beach where lots of people will see if that was ever the case.)

“Come on, baby. Give me one before I have to fuck you dumb on my cock,” he mumbles. “Or do you need someone below to see how slutty you look right now, hm?” His other hand moves to the buttplug, slowly pushing it deeper inside your ass.

If it wasn’t in your stomach already, then it certainly is now.

You don’t bother giving him an answer because soon enough, you’re coming all over his hand with a whiny moan, your slick running down his wrist like rich honey.

Sae pulls his fingers out with a few last taps on your sticky clit, casually sucking and licking your cum off the digits before planting a kiss on the side of your head. “Good girl.”

True to his words, your legs feel like jelly from how hard he was going as you lean all your weight back against his body for support. Taking note of this, Sae spins you around before lifting you into his arms, walking you both to the bedroom just adjacent to the balcony.

All the while he’s carrying you inside, you mouth at the exposed skin of his neck, occasionally sucking and biting until the fair canvas turns raw and red from your teeth. He can reprimand (or punish) you later for giving him such visible hickeys where other people might notice. For now, you decide it’s best to indulge yourself first.

Sae sets you down onto the bed before he reaches down to pull his shirt over his head, helping you get your clothes off as well right after. “Turn around, amor. Let me see,” he instructs.

You know exactly what he means, and with a teasing smile thrown his way, you maneuver yourself to settle on your elbows and knees.

Your inner thighs are still coated with a light sheen of your arousal, wet and shiny under the dim light of the room. Using both his thumbs to soil the wetness further on your skin so near to your core, he takes in the way your cunt clenches around nothing as the plug sits cutely in your other hole. Without waiting any second longer, Sae unbuckles his belt to push his pants and boxers off, pumping himself a few times before guiding the tip against your tight entrance.

Your immense slick makes it so much easier for him to slide home, so warm and wet and tight around his cock. He lets out a low groan as your walls envelope him as easily as a sleeve, your pleased moan singing in his ears like a dirty melody.

Very much filled to the brim, both of your holes are so stretched out until there are tears clinging to your lashes.

“Fuck, stay right there, baby.” He bites down on his lips, hips stilling after bottoming out before reaching over to the nightstand, the movement causing his blunt head to involuntarily nudge against your cervix. Sae curses just as you keen at the contact, his hand grabbing the tie he’d left haphazardly after leaving the press event yesterday.

Breath hitching at the sight of the fabric in his hand, you let out a breathless chuckle as your cheek presses on the bed. “You wanna tie me up, babe?” You drawl teasingly, already half-drunk from the feeling of his cock filling you up.

A hint of a smirk appears on the midfielder’s lips. “In a way,” he replies. You’re about to ask what he means by that when he leans towards you, pulling the tie over your eyes instead, hiding away the hues he adores so much. “Oh,”

The grin on his face grows wider now that your sense of sight has been stripped away as he neatly knots the tie behind your head. “Yeah, oh.”

“Now hold on tight, would you?” That’s all the warning you get before he begins pistoning his hips against yours in a fervor, eliciting a choked moan out of your parted lips.

“O-oh, god - fuck!” The pleasure is intensified, zaps of electricity creeping up the back of your spine and piling over tenfold as the lack of vision only makes everything feels more sensitive and raw, amplified. “That’s it. Take my cock, amor.” His cock continues to drill into you, your cries and whimpers of his name and his deep grunts bouncing off the walls of the room.

Ass jiggling and drenched pussy lips stretching around his girth every time he plunges in, Sae has never seen such a staggeringly addicting sight in all his life.

He makes good use of the buttplug by shallowly moving it in and out, the dual stimulation making you bury your face into the comforter as you muffle your scream.

He can feel you clamping down on him, squeezing him so tightly that he swears he could see stars behind his lids. With both of you now close to reaching that peak, his pace only increases albeit becoming a little sloppier.

A few bruising thrusts later and you’re sent over the edge, your climax coursing over you like a tidal wave. Your pleasured cries become the final push that Sae needed before he quickly pulls out, roughly stroking himself using your cum until his own shoots out in thick ropes of white onto the globes of your ass.

He groans, a low throaty sound of satisfaction rumbling from his chest as he stares at the mess he left on your skin. Grabbing his phone that had dropped onto the bed sometime prior, he takes a quick snap before reaching over to slip the blindfold off.

Your eyes blink at the sudden brightness, thighs shaking and body spent as your top half remains laid on the bed. “Sae…? Did you just take a picture?” You ask out of curiosity from the brief sound you’d heard.

He gently pulls out the plug, rubbing at the sore skin when you let out a little yelp before he wipes his cum off your ass, smearing them right on your pussy instead. He then gives you a non-committal hum, “Yes. Now lay down properly. I’m not finished.”

Much to both of your delight, he’s not even close to being done with you. Hasn’t scratched the surface of what he had planned for you, even. Not now, not anytime soon.

You’re in for a long night ahead.

the current atp top 10 as cat or dog breeds (rat-free)

this is going by today's (june 16th-17th) live rankings, so queen's & halle points just dropped. as it says in the title it's rat-free so there will only be 9 players. if you're really curious about tommy paul, who *just* dropped outside the top 10, he'd be a carolina dog.

everything under the cut!

jannik sinner - no breed, orange cat

loves to sleep, independent, playful and mischievous within his close circle, can end up looking like a dork at times, slow to trust. as 90% of domestic cats are not purebred, i thought it right to include a moggy

carlos alcaraz - andalusian terrier

he's from southern spain, quick, sturdy, attention-whore, very friendly, curious, affectionate, touchy-feely, quick on the uptake, vocal, energetic!!!, and has the attention span of a toddler unless there's danger. the andalusian terrier is taller than a jack russell (specifically 15cm-6in taller) but still has *that* kind of character. i have a similar dog (though she's a mysterious mix) and nothing seems physically impossible to them when they're excited, they'll literally try to drag branches 4 times their size and climb any tree trunks. they'll also 100% push their owners into the mud and/or do somersaults for any extra morsel of food. i know people generally compare carlos to a labrador puppy, but if we're talking about adult dogs he definitely doesn't give "big dog energy"

taylor fritz - ragdoll

american, gentle giant, he's big and looks very majestic but is actually clumsy as fuck, very chill, sweet, a kind of dog-like cat in terms of tolerance towards pain and towards other people and animals

novak djokovic - burmese

longest lifespan among cat breeds, also probably the most efficient physical form, a lot stronger than he looks, sinuous, very curious, wants attention, playful, vocal, people-oriented, social

jack draper - "english" labrador retriever

big, strong, good-natured, high-spirited, gentle but can be clumsy with his strength, 100% loyal to his close ones and very affectionate with them, he possesses intelligence, initiative and self-direction but is often underrated because of his friendly and trusting demeanor that makes him seem a bit daft. the "english" line is actually just the show variant, and it has a larger face and stockier build compared to the "american" (field) one. somewhat prone to health problems

lorenzo musetti - italian greyhound

old italian breed, slim and slight, extremely sweet and cute with his family but he's still a greyhound, ergo: high prey drive towards smaller animals, doesn't listen to recall instructions outside if he's fixated on something, needs a lot of training when he's a puppy. can easily get very nervous or fearful and is quite frail, but loves to play outside and can obviously run for days, he's also obviously one of the most graceful and pretty dogs on earth

holger rune - shiba inu

iconic, bold, stubborn, strong-willed, wants attention, affectionate towards his family but mistrustful of strangers, clever, independent, experts say he's got "high aggression, high reactivity and medium trainability", requires a lot of exercise and stimulation otherwise he can get anxious and if he's anxious he *will* scream and go feral and destroy everything in sight

ben shelton - american pit bull terrier

american, confident, big and muscly but still lean, high energy, very agile, extremely brave and fearless, eager to please, will *not* let go of a bone, enthusiastic, willing to work a lot, should obviously be very carefully trained to tame his natural exuberance which can be a danger

daniil medvedev - peterbald

russian, awkward-looking, actually very agile despite how dorky he looks, he's very vocal and unrelenting about it, one of the most verbally articulate cats, extremely intelligent and curious, very affectionate and sweet with his family

Erin Reed at Erin In The Morning:

In recent years, U.S. politicians have selectively framed European healthcare policies to justify restrictions on transgender care, seizing on a handful of conservative policies to claim that “Europe is pulling back.” The most extreme example, the United Kingdom’s Cass Review, has been wielded to justify a near-total ban on puberty blockers and even cited in U.S. Supreme Court arguments. But new medical guidelines from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland tell a different story. These countries have reaffirmed the importance of gender-affirming care for transgender youth and issued sharp critiques of the Cass Review, calling out its severe methodological flaws and misrepresentations.

The guidelines, released Friday in German, span more than 400 pages and represent the collective expertise of 26 medical and psychotherapeutic professional organizations, along with two self-representation organizations from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Their stated goal is "to provide guidance to all professionals in the healthcare system who deal with young transgender and non-binary people for the best possible professionally informed care based on the current state of medical knowledge." From the outset, the guidelines explain the importance of gender affirming care, stating that there are “no proven effective treatment alternative without body-modifying medical measures for a [person with] permanently persistent gender incongruence.” Importantly, the guidelines were developed with those who are experts in the fields of gender affirming care having a voice at the table, unlike the Cass Review: “Current guidelines, which are published by medical societies, were predominantly developed by clinical experts for the field of application and are based on an integrated synthesis of the assessment of available evidence and the broadest possible expert consensus.” The guidelines directly recommend puberty blockers and individualized, prioritized care for transgender youth undergoing physical changes. In the section on puberty blockers, the guidelines state with a strong recommendation: “If, in individual cases, the progressive pubertal maturation development creates a time pressure in which health damage would be expected due to longer waiting times to avert irreversible bodily changes (e.g. male voice change), access to child and adolescent psychiatric or psychotherapeutic clarification and medical treatment options should be granted as quickly as possible.” The guidelines also deliver a strong critique of the Cass Review, the report currently being used to justify bans on gender-affirming care in the United Kingdom and leveraged in other countries to further restrictions. German medical societies deem the Cass Review largely inapplicable to their own guidelines due to its numerous methodological shortcomings. One of their sharpest criticisms focuses on the lack of transparency regarding those who advised and produced the review, as well as the limited expertise of those involved. [...] The new German, Austrian, and Swiss guidelines mark a significant advancement for transgender healthcare in those countries, reinforcing a growing trend in Europe toward expanding, not restricting, access to gender-affirming care. They join the ranks of nations like Spain and France, which have taken more progressive stances on transgender rights, including medical care.

In a marked contrast to the US and UK’s war on trans rights and existence (see: Donald Trump [US] and Cass Review [UK]), the DACH countries of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland released guidelines on gender-affirming care that expand it for trans youths.

Okay so first of all: dire wolves cannot be de-extinctioned. They are a part of a genus that went extinct over 10,000 years ago alongside them, and none of the modern members of their subtribe are remotely close enough in relation to re-evolve them. This includes both grey wolves and jackals. Despite what some people may say, dire wolves are the same amount of related to both, which is not nearly close enough to be made from either. So this whole thing about trying to bring them back is nothing more than a publicity stunt for fans of George R.R. Martin's works and other similar fantasy series because it is literally impossible with what we have left of the evolutionary tree.

Secondly. WHAT'S EVEN THE FUCKING POINT OF BRINGING THEM BACK. THEY AREN'T DOGS SO THEY CAN'T BE TAMED AS PETS BECAUSE, GET THIS, DOMESTICATION IS NOT AS SIMPLE AS TRAINING AND TAKES A FUCK TON OF EVOLUTION AND TIME. AND THEY CAN'T BE RELEASED IN THE WILD EITHER. CAN YOU FUCKING IMAGINE? THEIR PREY IS ALL EXTINCT!! THEY'D JUST BE AN INVASIVE SPECIES LITERALLY EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD!! THE ONLY THING YOU COULD DO IS SLAP THEM IN ZOOS AND A) BRINGING A SPECIES BACK TO LIVE AS NOTHING MORE THAN AN ATTRACTION TO BE GAWKED AT IS CRUEL, AND B) THAT TAKES UP SPACES IN ZOOS FOR ACTUAL CONSERVATION WORK AGAINST EXTINCTION.

Thirdly. Why are they putting so much effort into de-extincting animals from the tail end of the ice age instead of, I don't know, animals that have recently gone extinct or are at risk of extinction? They claim to be doing this with the red wolf, but actually they did it with coyotes that have red wolf genes in them instead of an actual red wolf population. Which y'know, not nearly as helpful. And on the recently extinct part, in Spain in 2003, the first ever extinct animal was actually cloned. A pyrenean ibex, which at the time had only been declared extinct three years ago. Granted, the calf did die in minutes due to lung complications, but imagine if more work had been put into making stronger, healthier clones. The species may have been saved in a short enough time span that reintroduction was possible and attainable. But no such work into the pyrenean ibex or any other recently extinct species has been made.

Fourth and last. This entire talk of "de-extinction" when we haven't even truly done that yet does nothing but give politicians and corporations reasons to no longer care about conservation, because now, in their eyes and the eyes of the general public, extinction has been made trivial. The sanctity of actual conservation work is now at risk because people can just go "what's the point of saving them? They can just be brought back later." When that isn't how it works nor how it should be. But the people in charge don't care, they only care about profits. And pretending like we can bring the extinct back from extinction makes conservation work non-profitable. Colossal has potentially fucked over an unknowable amount of species.

And also, this doesn't even begin to tap into my issues with how CRISPR cloning is done in the first place. Ever notice how every cloned animal you hear about has been a mammal? I went onto Wikipedia to find a list of all cloned animals (yeah not the most scientific but it's easy and gets me more information than I could find on my own) and there are three examples of non-mammals being cloned. Ever. One was the xenopus tadpole in 1958, next was the Asian carp in 1963, and lastly was five fruit flies in 2005. That's it. That's every time a non-mammal was cloned. Nevermind that insects are the group of animals that have faced the most extinction in recent times, and have a massive effect on the entire Earth's environment. Not a single bird or reptile, either. All land mammals too; no bats or cetaceans. There's a bias here, and it does reflect in our conversation efforts.

Anyways that's my latest Rant On Things I Have Strong Opinions About. I would probably kill it if I took biotech again.

Colossal supposedly has a study coming that proves that dire wolves are more closely related to grey wolves than we thought. Egg on my face if true, but doesn't change that they didn't make [dire] wolves this time and it doesn't negate the rest of my points. Also, I should say that I don't think they purposely designed the wolves to look exactly like the ones from ASOIAF, but they're definitely leaning into that with all the publicity stuff they're doing with George R.R. Martin. - Garb's Addendum

I feel like there's a movie franchise based on this. About how blatantly immoral it would be regardless of whether they succeeded or not. It has something to do with dinosaurs. Ever heard of it?

Literally all that I could think of reading about this entire situation is that there's a movie for this. It's called Jurassic Park, and it's specifically about the sketchy moral ethics of bringing extinct creatures back to life for human entertainment.

Middle Eastern Hip-Hop Revolution: A Cultural Sound Explosion

TITLE: The Evolution of Hip-Hop and Trap in the Middle Eastern Music Scene

In recent years, hip-hop and trap music have made notable strides within the Middle Eastern music landscape, creating an electrifying blend of cultural expressions. This dynamic musical and cultural exchange is transforming the region's auditory landscape, offering exciting and novel sounds that appeal locally and worldwide.

Combining Genres and Heritage

Musicians in the Middle East are creatively fusing traditional music elements with the vibrant energy of hip-hop and trap. This amalgamation of genres acts as a cultural connector between the East and the West. Producers such as Morocco's Ramoon lead the charge in this trend, adeptly integrating Moroccan traditional rhythms with contemporary hip-hop beats to generate a uniquely captivating sound.

Khalifa Santo from Abu Dhabi epitomizes this fusion by weaving current radio hits with classical Arab tunes, enchanting audiences both at home and abroad. These acts are reshaping the identity of Middle Eastern music, appealing to those who appreciate the familiar while seeking fresh, innovative sounds.

Social and Political Themes

Music has long been a powerful medium for social commentary, and Middle Eastern hip-hop artists are harnessing their platforms to tackle pressing social and political topics. Palestinian producer Al Nather's work serves as a prime example, using synth glitches to bring social stories to the forefront, resonating strongly with audiences spanning generations. This storytelling through music elevates its cultural value, making it much more than just entertainment.

Streaming data reveals that artists from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) have experienced phenomenal growth in their global audience, showing a strong international interest in their music. Artists like Algeria's Dxrk ダーク and Lebanon's Anthony Keyrouz have gained significant recognition on the world stage, pulling in considerable streaming figures from diverse countries such as France and the USA. Their achievements underscore how musical talent transcends cultural and geographic borders.

Growing Local Scenes

In Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, gifted artists are driving innovation within their regional music scenes. NBL, a Saudi-Palestinian producer, is acclaimed for his Ramadan beat series "Jalsat Nabilia," which cleverly combines traditional Saudi music with contemporary genres such as trap and Afrobeats. Likewise, Dina Ayada from Morocco is garnering attention with her festival performances, showcasing the abundant talent within the Arab world.

The international expansion of Middle Eastern artists is fueled further by their cross-border collaborations and tours. For example, ElGrandeToto's albums include collaborations with artists from Belgium, Spain, and Nigeria, broadening his global reach. Additionally, Egyptian rapper Wegz and Saudi-Ecuadorian singer Mishaal Tamer are captivating audiences worldwide with their tours, extending their musical influence far beyond Middle Eastern borders.

Online platforms, particularly TikTok, play a critical role in promoting Middle Eastern music on a global scale. Issam Alnajjar's track "Hadal Ahbek" went viral, demonstrating the astounding capability of social media to elevate regional music to a worldwide platform. Effectively using these tools enables artists to connect with wider audiences, allowing their voices to be heard across continents.

Tactical Insights and Opportunities

Middle Eastern artists aiming to build on this momentum can adopt several best practices to sustain their progress:

Cultural Fusion: Continue to merge traditional and modern musical styles to develop innovative sounds.

International Engagement: Collaborate with artists from various countries to expand their audience and achieve worldwide recognition.

Social Media Savvy: Use Instagram and TikTok to promote music in a viral manner.

Perform Globally: Seize opportunities to perform at international festivals and tours to introduce their music to new listeners.

Expressive Content: Utilize music as a medium for social and political discourse to engage deeply with audiences.

In summary, the fusion of hip-hop and trap with Middle Eastern music is a rich tapestry reflecting a broader cultural dialogue. By employing these strategies, MENA artists continue to surpass barriers, pushing the boundaries of what is possible both sonically and culturally.

Pres. Emilio Aguinaldo is undoubtedly the Philippines' most misunderstood hero, a figure marked by both admiration and controversy. Revered for his persona, courage, and military prowess, he stands as a key historical enigma. Scrutiny has intensified due to alleged connections to the deaths of fellow national icons like Gen. Luna and Andres Bonifacio, fueling debates about his hero status.

Determining Aguinaldo's legacy is no simple task. Amid pivotal historical junctures, he made decisions that stirred moral and political discontent. Nonetheless, his undeniable contributions to the nation's pursuit of autonomy cannot be ignored. He bestowed upon us our national flag and anthem, proclaimed a fleeting yet symbolic independence from Spanish rule, and emerged victorious in multiple battles for freedom. Despite his dictatorial presidency in the backdrop of war, he exhibited a strong liberal and democratic streak.

The charge that he orchestrated the deaths of Bonifacio and Luna is frequently raised, but Aguinaldo's presence during the Tejeros Convention of 1897, coupled with a lack of direct evidence, muddies the waters of his involvement. Modern evidence implies his complicity, although his level of culpability remains debated.

In my view, Aguinaldo must be held accountable for his decisions, though the moral assessment falls beyond our purview. A fervent patriot, he was burdened with the weight of critical choices for the sake of his homeland and its people. Regarding his worthiness as the first President and a hero, I firmly affirm it. Aguinaldo's struggles spanned battles against both Spain and the United States, underscoring his pivotal role in advancing the Philippines toward independent republic status in 1898.

It's imperative to grasp that Filipino heroes are not flawless paragons. They are human, prone to error, existing in stark contrast to cinematic or fictional idols. Embracing this realism is essential in comprehending the tapestry of their contributions.

All these characters are from an RPG campaign called; Gehenna's Gates, set in the world of Vampire The Masquerade. Feel free to ask any questions!

We take a moment to celebrate our fallen friends in this campaign

Felix: Felix, our resolute Gangrel companion, embodied the wild spirit of his clan with an appearance weathered by nocturnal adventures. In pivotal moments, Felix displayed unwavering courage, standing as a stalwart defender of our coterie aginst Anselm. Tragically, he met his demise at the hands of the Black Hand, choosing to sacrifice himself to safeguard critical information. In his final act, Felix cemented his legacy as a valiant Gangrel, leaving an indelible mark on the shared tapestry of our nocturnal history.

Meinwald Willem Becker: Former Sheriff of London. A Brujah as strong as a titan but with a good heart, who left from the darkest and most gloomy place in the vampiric world, devoted to hatred and wickedness. Returned with his own strength to find the light for himself and others. So strong and kind that he tamed Spain's most dangerous Lasombra, establishing a deep relationship with him. He was a beacon for the group and his death left incurable scars.

Raphael: Raphael, the archangel, stood as the epitome of celestial strength and benevolence, radiating an aura of divine grace. With golden wings that spanned the heavens and eyes that held the wisdom of eons, he was the paragon among angels. His countenance reflected both compassion and unwavering determination. Tragically, Raphael met his end defending a human soul from the malevolent grasp of his brother, Lucifer, catalyzing the tumultuous events of Gehenna. In sacrificing himself, Raphael's celestial essence transcended, and he emerged as a guiding spirit for Danya, offering wisdom and protection from the shadows as she navigated the intricate tapestry of the supernatural realm.

O'Connel: O'Connel, our irascible Nosferatu, embodied a grumpy and cantankerous demeanor, his visage marred by the grotesque features characteristic of his clan. Despite his surly disposition, his keen insight and tenacity proved invaluable to the coterie when uncovering a spy in their midst. Transcending his initial role, O'Connel became the linchpin of the coterie's technological endeavors, utilizing his skills to bolster their defenses. Tragically, his unlife met a grim end at the hands of the Kuei-Jin, who claimed his head in a chilling confrontation. O'Connel's demise left a void, marking the end of a tumultuous but indispensable chapter in the coterie's history.

If you had to give nationalities to your twst ocs, what would they be?

Well, keep in mind, TW doesn't exist in the exact same world as ours. There are obvious regions that are analogous to places in our world, but they're always a little different and typically have different names. A lot of my OCs come from places that don't canonically exist in the world of the game, and nearly all of them are Caucasian. Also, most of them don't have strong accents in my imagination.

Elias comes from the same hometown as Vil and Jack, somewhere in the Shaftlands. That's about all I can give at the moment. Billy comes from a place called "the Kingdom Above the Clouds," which is literally a land entirely populated by giants. I kind of see them as almost their own world or country, and there are probably giants of mixed races and dialects up there. Billy's home and family lineage I think would most likely be recognized as Caucasian American; hard to give an exact region. Maelstrom is from the ocean. I personally like to imagine Maelstrom swims far distances in a "territory" that can reach a large number of countries; so you could run into him off the coasts or in-between various places. However, in terms of where he SPECIFICALLY lives - like, where he and his mother call home - most likely either in the Mediterranean Sea, or some part of the North Atlantic Ocean. So nearby countries would include Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, Ireland, and the UK. In terms of his voice, however, he'd have a sort of basic American accent, sooooo nationality doesn't mean much. :P Speaking of those last two places, James and Smitty are both from whatever equivalent to the UK exists in this world. Smitty's parents are actually from Ireland, but he's lived in the UK-esque-place all his life, and doesn't have much of an Irish accent. (His parents are another story.) He and James both have English dialects. Reno I think comes from a region akin to the Southwestern USA. (Which is actually my area of the country.) He'd most likely live in a state similar to Nevada. His accent is a strong southern American dialect. Theodore comes from a place I haven't determined a name for, which is sort of a cross between the Land of Oz and the Midwestern USA. I haven't fully figured out the details on his homeland yet, in terms of where one ends and the other begins. Grit...KIND OF comes from the same place, but kind of not. Just like Billy and Maelstrom, his origins are more fantastical in nature. He lives in the Nome Kingdom, a country under the earth that spans across the same basic region. However, the Nome Kingdom is totally separate from the "Overworld" of the surface-dwellers, with its own laws, areas, and so on.

Nakoda is the only non-Caucasian member of my gallery, I believe, and his homeland is analogous to India. He doesn't have a noticeable accent, but I think that's because he's worked it out of himself; when he was younger, it was probably very strong. I think for a brief time either Reno's family lived in this country that resembled India, or perhaps Nako's family lived in the US-analogous-country for a while; that's how the two met, but when one side's family returned to their home, they sort of lost contact until they re-encountered one another at NRC. I've never decided which option I like more, in terms of which family went where.

اللَّهُمَّ افْتَحْ لِي أَبْوَابَ رَحْمَتِكَ

The seventh and last part of my Morocco series (please see here, here, here, here, here and here for more).

Marrakech became the capital city of an empire spanning Africa and Europe when it was founded by the Almoravid dynasty in 1070 and Islam, which has been the foremost religion (alongside a large Jewish minority) since Morocco was conquered by the Arabs in 709 AD, has always set the tone of the city.

Ben Youssef Mosque was built here by Ali ibn Yusuf (1106-1142 AD), who was an Almoravid, and the site is now home to Ben Youssef Madrasa since 1565.

A madrasa, or theological school, has been here since Abu Al Hasan ibn Othman of the Marninid Dynasty (1244-1465) founded it between 1331 and 1348 and this building has stood since commissioned by Abdallah Al Ghalib of the Saadian dynasty (1549-1659), who also built palaces and tombs that you can read about in my other posts.

(This is mainly a post about the 16th and 17th centuries; please see here and here for earlier and later eras).

The Saadians were sharifs (descendants of Mohammed, the founder of Islam, or his family) and thus felt a duty that they took seriously, and carried out well, as you can see from what they left behind.

They were also mindful of the links to Europe which their country had had since European times, and which has left its mark in Morocco since the Koutoubia Mosque, built 1147 AD by the Almohad dynastY, who overthrew the Almoravids earlier that year. (The Koutoubia is twinned with a mosque in Cordoba, in what is now Spain, which sounds absolutely lush, though I’ve never been there).

As the Museum with No Frontiers points out, “if anything can be singled out as the leitmotif running through the area of the Mediterranean, it is diversity of expression combined with the harmony of sentiment, a sentiment more cultural than religious”. I’d love to test this out in Cordoba or Seville one day!

Indeed the Andalusi marble basin, built in 1002-1007 AD, went from Morocco to Cordoba and came back; it now lives here as a sign of those who came here after 1492, when the last Muslim power in what is now Spain was cast out.

At that time, all Muslims and Jews were expelled from the Spanish state, and many came here, as it was the nearest friendly country and many of their forefathers came from Morocco; they were just as much European as Islamic and African, and brought back a legacy that infuses all Saadian and later buildings.

Because the state religion was (and is) Islam, both theologians and lawyers were trained in a madrasa that taught 800 students and was thereby the largest in Morocco.

This school worked tirelessly until it was shut down in 1960; it then reopened as a museum in 1982 and was restored between 2018 and 2022 on the orders of King Mohammed VI, showing the links between religion of state that have always existed in Morocco, though without becoming an Iranian-style theocracy.

Since it was built just after a wave of migration from Europe to Morocco, and has strong European influences painted on to the Islamic bedrock (both Arabic and that of the Berber folk who have always lived here), this shows the sheer Moroccan-ness that makes Morocco distinctive.

فِى بُيُوتٍ أَذِنَ ٱللَّهُ أَن تُرْفَعَ وَيُذْكَرَ فِيهَا ٱسْمُهُۥ يُسَبِّحُ لَهُۥ فِيهَا بِٱلْغُدُوِّ وَٱلْـَٔاصَالِ

The continent’s emphasis on sustainable sourcing, certifications, and healthy diets aligns well with the value proposition of Asian sea bass. Meanwhile, North America is an emerging market with increasing interest from health-conscious consumers and foodservice operators, offering new export opportunities for Asian producers.

Rising consumer preference for sustainably farmed fish is pushing producers to adopt eco-labeling, traceability solutions, and green certifications. Regulatory pressures in key markets like the EU and US are driving compliance with strict environmental and food safety standards. This shift is not only enhancing brand credibility but also opening access to high-value export markets.

The foodservice sector is seeing notable changes, with renowned chefs integrating Asian sea bass into modern, global fusion dishes.

Who will win FIFA 2026? Favorites, latest odds and betting for finals in North America

With the UEFA Nations League completed and settled, all focus now shifts towards the FIFA 2026, with qualification campaigns in progress and the event now merely a year away. It pledges to be a World Cup unlike any before, as it will be the initial instance that 48 nations will take part and matches will occur across three separate countries — the USA, Canada and Mexico. 

Argentina are the reigning titleholders, having overcome France on penalties in arguably the most remarkable final ever, and both sides are once again among the present favorites to win next year. But who will claim the 2026 World Cup? The Sporting News presents you with all the current betting odds via Parimatch. 

Winner betting odds for FIFA 2026

Here’s the most recent odds for the nations tipped to secure the FIFA World Cup 2026, with values for all those listed at 101.0 or lower. Odds are accurate at the time of release but are liable to modification. Stay updated with the revised values as the market changes.

As the anticipation grows for the forthcoming FIFA World Cup 2026, the latest odds provide a glimpse into how sportsbooks assess the top competitors. Spain currently tops the field with odds of 6.50, closely tailed by France at 7.50 and Brazil at 7.0. England continues as a strong contender as well, positioned at 8.0, while title holders Argentina follow at 9.0.

Germany and Portugal are likewise among the contenders with odds of 11.0 and 13.0, respectively. The Netherlands and Italy come next at 21.0 and 26.0, with Uruguay, Belgium, and Colombia ranging between 34.0 and 51.0. The USA and Norway both carry 51.0 odds, signifying moderate outlooks, while Mexico, Denmark, and Croatia each stand at 67.0.

Meanwhile, Japan and Morocco are considered underdogs at 101.0, and Canada places further down the rankings with odds of 151.0. These numbers not only emphasize the intense rivalry among footballing nations but also provide a perspective into how each squad is presently evaluated on the international level.

Favorites and top candidates for the FIFA World Cup 2026 gaming

France. Holding arguably the most ability of any nation in global football at present and having reached the previous two finals, Les Bleus are predictably ranked high on this list. Kylian Mbappe and Ballon d’Or frontrunner Ousmane Dembele headline a star-studded lineup that also includes the most exciting new prospects in French football: Desire Doue, Michael Olise, Bradley Barcola and Rayan Cherki.

Accommodating all of them will be nearly unmanageable, but Didier Deschamps must release the brakes on his squad this time, unlike during Euro 2024. It might be the factor between capturing a third World Cup or enduring yet another narrow disappointment. 

Spain. La Roja’s ranking as favorites is entirely justified, considering they captured Euro 2024 and were only defeated via penalties in the Nations League final. They also overcame France in both tournaments, demonstrating they have the measure of a team they could very likely encounter in North America next summer. 

Lamine Yamal is the clear standout, but Luis de la Fuente can also count on Euro final scorers Nico Williams and the vastly underrated Mikel Oyarzabal for goals. Spain also possesses unquestionably the most dominant midfield in global football at the moment, with Pedri, Fabian Ruiz and Martin Zubimendi starting the Nations League final while current Ballon d’Or holder Rodri steadily returns from a major knee injury. 

Brazil and England Confront Legacy and Pressure Ahead of Football World Cup 2026

Brazil. The Seleção has lifted the World Cup a record five times, yet it will mark a 24-year gap when they take the field next summer. They haven’t reached a final in that span either, having been eliminated by European opponents in each of the past five competitions. 

Their loss at the quarter-final phase last time around could very likely have marked Neymar’s final World Cup outing for the Selecao. But they still possess an exceptional range of skill spearheaded by Vinicius Jr, Raphinha and Matheus Cunha. Can Carlo Ancelotti achieve what he has managed with Real Madrid and make all the components function in unison?

It will be 60 years of disappointment by the moment the Three Lions head across the Atlantic. Gareth Southgate came closest to breaking the notorious drought with two Euros final defeats, but now the responsibility of rescuer has been transferred to Thomas Tuchel. 

Germany and Argentina Direct Improbability Ahead of FIFA World Cup 2026
