#SEXYNOTE: As promised, here I leave you this story. I apologize for any errors or spelling mistakes, English is not my first language. Thanks for everything. Pedri imagine 🔜

It was late Friday night when you were still reading your notes and taking notes while the video played on your computer. You were supposed to turn in a paper tomorrow and you had fallen a little behind after so many assignments.

Maybe it was because your head had been a mess the last few days but you tried to ignore it and move on. If you kept putting ideas into your head, you wouldn't end up well and you had suffered enough to go back to square one.

It was probably late and you needed a break but you couldn't afford a nap right now. Your eyes were focused on the video when your phone vibrated in the distance. You ignored it.

But it vibrated again.

You stretched out your hand without waiting for the screen view as you unlock your phone. The notification makes you sigh and you open it wearily. You had at least seven messages from Pablo, asking where you were, what you're doing, who you were with. You rolled your eyes wondering whether to respond but after a few moments you locked your phone again.

As you refocused your head back on your stuff, your doorbell rang, making you jump with fright. Damn. The pounding on your door grew louder as the doorbell continued to ring making you despair. You got up from your chair quickly in a fury, walking to your front door and sighing. You open the door quickly and your eyes take in his figure, you are infuriated and you will let him know it.

"What the fuck, Pablo?" you squeal tiredly.

First your phone, now your doorbell. If you didn't answer it was clearly for a reason, why had he come?

"What are you doing here?" you asked again at his silence. His gaze was somewhat lost.

"I wanted to see you" he says taking a step forward. But you stop him. You don't want him to pass.

"Well you saw me, go away" you mutter angrily.

What did he want anyway? He had ignored you for days, now he appreciates out of nowhere and that made you desperate. Lately he did that with you. Ignoring you and showing up only when he wanted to and not when you needed him.

You used to be closer but these last months Pablo had been quite distant and disinterested on his part. And although you tried to find out what had changed in him or why he was treating you this way, he didn't seem to care at all, so you didn't care either.

"Y/n..." he mumbles, grimacing.

Now you are inside your house and you really fear for your integrity knowing that he already has power over you. Especially with that puppy dog look. His hands wrap around your waist pulling you closer and you whimper.

Great. The only thing missing, him showing up at your house when you're vulnerable. He knew you weren't going to throw him out or anything, he had that effect on you. Couldn't he tell things between you weren't right?

"Pablo, stop" you ask as his face sinks into your neck. Your skin bristles and even though you don't want to push him away, you have to stop him.

"I missed you, baby" he whispers and his lips search for you but your hands are quicker and they rest on his chest pressing against it.

However, he is more agile than you and quickly kisses you. His lips wrap around yours and you sigh loss as you kiss him back. You had missed him too, even more when he had been away these days. His tongue takes place in your mouth and tastes you, Gavi smiles a little as he feels you gasp when his hands go to your waist.

It was clear he had other intentions in coming here but you weren't going to fall for his webs again. Not if you didn't want to leave with a broken heart. You had suffered from his distance these past few months and could barely recover when he came back to you.

Your relationship with Pablo had changed over time, you first started out as friends, you got along well and had fun together like typical friends. You used to just hang out, write to each other, visit each other, do typical things that friends do until one night you slept together and everything changed.

You thought it had been a mistake and that it would never happen again, until you did it again. Again and again when you needed each other.

You started to see each other secretly from your friends, he would come to your house or you would go to his, in secret, no one even imagined it. You saw each other when you felt lonely or bored, sometimes to keep each other company but mostly to fuck and then you pretended to be friends as if nothing had happened between you.

These last weeks you had tried to meet him, you tried to call him and send him messages but he completely ignored you. But sometimes he would show up at your apartment when he wanted to fuck, you would do it and then he would run away from you when you wanted to know about him.

Yet he kept coming back to you again and again.

Just like now.

Your friendship had been damaged, you both knew it, you no longer talked or spent time together, you just fucked and it was killing the only "friendship" left between you. All these years, your secrets, the smiles, your nights awake under the stars, the talks in the wee hours of the morning, nothing made sense anymore.

You had become strangers. Strangers who fucked and nothing more. And that broke your soul. Because you were used to the idea of him being yours when in reality he wasn't. Clearly tonight was proving it. You were nothing. All that had meant nothing.

Of course, you have to admit that you never promised anything. You only saw each other when you wanted to fuck and then he left you with your feelings blooming. You were afraid that he would leave you at some point, which was the normal thing to do because of his situation, but it hurt you more that he didn't even bother to ask you how you felt about everything.

When you feel like that's enough from him, you pull away from his mouth, hearing him growl as he tries to kiss you again and you run your face. Gavi watches you somewhat angrily and confused.

"What's wrong?" he asks without understanding.

"We need to talk" you say putting your hands on your chest.

You feel that if you don't put a stop to this, you will end up consumed by passion and whether you want to or not, this is hurting you more than him.

"We don't have to say anything" he murmurs toying with your waist, his fingers draw you back to him and your body responds.

His hands feel warm on your skin and you recognize his scent quickly. His nose sniffs your skin and you shiver as you feel your belly churn. You swallow saliva holding your breath to maintain your posture and push him away from you again. But he doesn't let go and drags you onto the couch, depositing you on it gently as his lips impact yours.

Inevitably like an action programmed in your head, you reciprocate his kiss but instead of feeling it with passion, you pity him. You want to kiss him, it's clear but not knowing that he will then walk out the door and leave you a mess. How he's done it for months, come, take a piece of your soul and then leave with it.

You don't want to be the one to end it this way but unlike Gavi, you seem to be the only one who has the balls to do something about your little friendship or whatever relationship you have.

But you want to enjoy it one last time. At least you deserve it if you'll finish everything after this. So you try to keep his every move in your head, to remember every trace of his touch on your skin, to file every caress of his lips on yours. Even though your heart aches and you want to push him away from you, you allow yourself to enjoy his touch, his desire, his passion.

"Pablo" you call him panting when he crosses the boundaries.

You feel it's the perfect time to speak. If you don't now, you never will knowing him. His dark eyes look at you in confusion and his attention is drawn to you.

"We need to end this" you say softly. Your hands encircle the back of his neck and his brow furrows in confusion.

"What do you say, Y/n?" he asks doubtfully. His body lifts off of yours and he re-incorporates himself sitting up to look at you seriously.

"I can't do this anymore, Pablo" you admit sighing.

"Do what?" he insists.

You shake your head worriedly. He lets out a grumbling huff.

You don't say anything more. You've just said it all. He looks at you confused and his shoulders tense at your overwhelming silence. He doesn't seem to want to understand the situation and that makes you despair, he really is being selfish.

"Do you want to end this?" he asks tensely.

"Y-yes" you say sincerely and painfully.

"You're overreacting" his arms rest on his thighs and he sighs. "It's just sex" he says again.

Your chest heaves as you feel the pain grow. It's breaking your soul that he's so indifferent to you as if he never cared about your feelings.

Yes, maybe it was just sex. But you can no longer hide as if your feelings for him haven't changed, you're tired of enduring the pain he leaves every time he seeks you out and then leaves you. He gives you signals that you don't know how to take and then disappears like its nothing, it's not fair. Every time you tried to talk this with him, he would ignore you or say it was your ideas.

"We're not the same anymore, we've changed" you insist with your voice cracking.

"We're just friends" he points out lifting his shoulders.

Those words burn in your head. Just friends. Yes, you were but not clearly anymore. You are in a vicious cycle that only leaves you in a loop of the same thing over and over again. Maybe he doesn't see it that way but you are in danger.

"No, we're not friends anymore..." you say with a sigh.

"What the fuck do you want from me?" he questions exhaustedly interrupting you.

His tone of voice surprises you. The words choke in your throat and the air becomes tiny.

"Stop ignoring me, stop acting like a jerk, stop avoiding this conversation, Pablo" you say, a little excited.

You are hurt. You've wanted to talk for so long and keeping these feelings bottled up has hurt you, you won't shut up again. You are tired. You want this to end, for better or worse.

His back tenses as he listens to you, rests his elbows on his thighs and clutches his head in hiding. Just like a coward.

"I'm sick of you ignoring me and then coming after me like you don't give a shit about my feelings" you spit without swinging. "You want to have sex fine! but then don't ignore me for days, answer when I call you or listen to me when i want to talk to you, at least answer my fucking messages!" you shout in exasperation.

Gavi shakes his head denying with a wry laugh.

"You have no right to ask me anything, we are nothing" he mutters harshly and you tremble with fury.

"It's not fair!" you shriek out of your mind. "Do you even wonder how I would feel after you run every time you come back for me?" you ask warily.

He snorts again as if what you say is meaningless to him. Like you weren't important at all. he wasn't going to say anything? He really was an idiot.

"What do you want me to say?" he asks as if he reads your mind.

"I want to be with you but do you want to be with me?" you question confident with your statement.

You can see his neck tense and his muscles react. Still with his head down, he remains silent. He knows very well what your words come to and the meaning of being with you is not just fucking. It goes far beyond that.

"Of course I want to" he says obviously raising his head.

"That's not what I mean, Pablo" you mumble slowly.

His eyes search for you and you bite your lips eagerly.

"Why do you say stupid things?" he asks with a grimace. His nose wrinkles and you feel like you want to cry. "We said nothing was going to happen between us, we were just going to have fun."

Your belly twists in pain. You're completely vulnerable in front of him but you don't care, you just want this to be over with for fuck's sake.

"We never said that, it just happened" you whisper weakly.

"Because we only sleep together when we want to, isn't that what we used to do?" he lifts his arms exhaustedly.

"That's what you want!" you squeal again.

Tears begin to sting in your eyes and pain spreads through every pore of your body. This is hurting too much but more you are hurt by his indifference, his unconcern. Knowing that he doesn't care about you at all.

"I can't go through with this" you admit devastated.

"I don't understand why you're giving it so much thought, it's just sex, there are no feelings in between" he insist getting up from his spot.

"Did you really think this would work?" you question you scornful and disappointed. "You're hurting me!" you spit in reproach.

His attitudes are the straw that broke the camel's back. Ignoring you for days, leaving you alone when you needed him, pretending you were fine, that your relationship as friends was perfect, not caring enough, avoiding conversations. He may not see it this way but he couldn't see what was hurting you either.

"You're the one who ruined it!" he raises his voice pointing at you.

His words stab like daggers into your chest and you swallow a sob. You don't want to make a fuss when it doesn't even make sense, he's just said it all. Yes, you fell in love. But it's not your fault, it's both of yours for letting this happen.

Gavi watches you and you can't stand it. It hurts you to be the one with enough nerve to face the situation and yet he still gets offended. He acts like nothing is going on between you when your whole relationship is in chaos. You are no longer the same as you were months ago, you are not friends, not a couple, not close, not anything.

He clearly just sees you as someone he can fuck and nothing more. He doesn't see you as a friend, he doesn't see you as a lover, he doesn't see you as the person who is in love with him. He doesn't see you at all.

"Go away" you ask sobbing. You cover your chest with your knees and hug yourself, looking for some encouragement.

You want to let it all go. You need to get it off your chest and forget about it. He doesn't say anything, just stares at you in confusion. His silence burns, leaves a trace of emptiness in your heart and makes you despair but there is nothing else to do.

"Let's forget what happened, it's just you and me" he whispers kneeling in front of you and wraps his hands around your legs.

Pablo tries to smile weakly as he caresses your skin. Your chest resonates and you want me to embrace you but you can't. You can't get back into this vicious cycle, which only makes your heart break. You have to cut the streak and try to save yourself because Gavi doesn't seem to want to save you either.

You deny in tears, how can he be so cynical like that? You just said that this is over, that you're hurting each other, that there's no end here with no one coming out healthy.

"Go away" you demand angrily again.

His eyes weaken and he opens his mouth to say something but you don't let him. Not when all that comes out of his mouth is shit towards you.

"Get out of my house now" you shriek on the verge of exploding.

Your shout takes him by surprise and he stands up quickly, startled. He scratches the back of his neck as he searches for your sad look and when he meets it, he knows you're serious.

He nods slightly and moves but stops to look at you again, your head looks away as tears fall endlessly down your cheeks. You won't see him go. You don't want him to leave. But it has to end here.

You hear his soft footsteps walking away and open the door, for a few seconds he stands there. You can see him out of the corner of your eye, his hand is holding the doorknob and he keeps watching you, as if he expects you to ask him not to leave at any moment, but you don't.

You hug yourself tighter over your body and sob as he slams the door of your apartment, walking completely out of it. You collapse into a thousand pieces in that instant, letting out everything that made you ache.

Your head hurts from crying so much but your heart hurts more. You had lost the war against Gavi and you had fallen for him. It was obvious that at some point one of you would feel something for the other but clearly, that had not been Gavi.

You loved him. You were in love with him and you hoped he felt the same but his signals didn't tell you the same and acting now was the only way to save yourself. It should never have started like this, you should have stopped this before it was too late.

You try to hold out hope that in time, you were going to heal and understand his reasons. But for now, you can only live with the burden of having fallen in love with someone who doesn't love you back.

Salvation 3

Summary: It started with a look and then a smile. She was just another name on a continuous list of rotating faces. But then she smiled and it wrecked his world. He would lie, cheat, and kill, just to keep her in his orbit.

Trigger Warning ⚠️: Obsession and Manipulation and Stalking Behavior

Chapter 3: Two Month Later

Word Count: 435

Enjoy!

Story Poll!

Series Poll!

Two months after she joined, Price stopped pretending it was random that he was assigning Crow to his unit more often. More than the rest. More than protocol strictly allowed.

Ghost didn’t say a word.

Soap raised a brow.

Gaz smirked like he knew something he wasn’t saying.

Price ignored them all.

He had his excuses ready—tactical value, strong instincts, consistency under pressure. She was Tier One material. She’d earned it.

And she had.

But that wasn’t why he did it.

Not really.

He started watching her in ways that had nothing to do with command.

Not just in the field. Not just during ops.

In the little moments.

When she laughed at Gaz’s jokes—too long, like she forgot to keep her guard up.

When she stood too close to Soap during briefings, arms brushing, lips twitching.

When she sparred like she wanted to break someone’s jaw—not for the win, but for the release.

She moved like someone trying not to come undone.

And every time she passed him by, smelling like gun oil and adrenaline, and something that was just innately her, something in his chest tightened. Not with lust. Not yet.

But with awareness.

With a weight he didn’t have a name for.

Still—he told himself it wasn’t obsession. It was care. Professional. Maybe protective. Normal for a CO. Nothing more.

He repeated that lie every time her voice crackled over comms and his heart jumped in his chest like he’d just taken a hit.

He only checked her quarters once.

Just once.

A routine pass. Late. Quiet.

The corridor was empty. Moonlight spilled through the narrow windows, striping the concrete in slivers of silver. He moved silently, steps softer than they should have been.

He didn’t knock.

Didn’t need to.

He just stood there, outside her door. Long enough to see the light under the frame. Long enough to listen. No movement. No voices. No company.

He crouched once—checked the latch. Ran his fingers lightly along the frame.

Made sure it was locked. That the window beside her bunk wasn’t cracked. That no one else was lingering where they shouldn’t be.

It was quick.

It was quiet.

He told himself it was just to be safe. Just to be sure.

But when he straightened and stepped back, he didn’t leave right away.

He lingered.

One minute.

Then another.

He stood in the dark, listening to nothing, wanting nothing but the knowledge that she was alive on the other side of that door. Alone.

And then—finally—he turned.

Walked away with clenched fists and a pulse that didn’t slow for hours.

Just once.

Right?

wolfYLady: Chapter 3! I was going to wait to post everything but thought I would post what I have. Thanks for the support!

Plan to make this a series 'Twisted Sins' with dark obsessive romance with Ghost, Soap, König and Keegan. Is there anyone else I should look into or include?

So, what is my favourite at the moment, you might ask?

Funnily enough it’s not one of my Good Omens fics.

Yeah, okay this is pretty obvious, isn’t it?

So Daily Affirmations is what I enjoyed posting most. The plot somehow plotted itself and the writing was writing itself with this one, posting this one daily was the next logical step.

This story will be in line with a tragedy/psychological thriller plot (hopefully you will agree). I really love Michael Sheen as occasional villain and Prodigal Son had so much potential for alternate endings. So this is what you will get with this, an after-S1 alternate storyline, where Michael’s character Dr. Martin Whitly will use one of openings of his less stable son.

It is open-ended and does have potential for a sequel, but I will not decide this right now.

What is happening right now? 🤔

I am currently writing exclusively Good Omens fics and on a good pace (for me that means 3-4 writing days a week, a productive writing day is equaling 3-4 chapters).

The Serpent’s Wake is now up. I am a currently editing and writing chapters for my WIPs. I hope to finish Til Debt Do Us Part next. I have one more story I currently prepare (Of Cats and Other Omens a new original story). If you want you can also always check out my bookmarks where I collect my favourites.

On some days of the week I only post one fic a day, which feels strange 🙈.

In terms of writing, I think I wanted to wrap up most of the stories I have before starting on one or two new ones. Did not quite work out as planned but:

If you have any questions, let me know, I will be happy to answer them, because this will most likely be a reason to abandon my current paper for a moment.

I do not want to commission art work for my fics. Feel inspired by them? Have fun with it.

To all the other authors that kept me going and plotting for the last years before actually posting stuff myself:

[chimerafflesia]

it's me back with another Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links™️post because I feel I have made the definitive version of my predaplant deck and well it's come a long way over the past 5 months so I wanted to share the evolution + how I figured out my play style for it :3

starting with an OG, a classic, my baby who I remember fondly and mourn every single day, my november 2024 build that I used during the KC cup, which was the opportunity I needed for me to even learn this deck. this is Starving Venom Fusion Dragon For The Win, or SVFDFTW for short <3

she was perfect, she was a moment, looking back there are some things I would tweak but since this was my first real predaplant build I don't actually know if I would change a thing.

super poly was the main strat here to bring out starving venom and then wait for it to ger destroyed to blow up my opponent' field. I don't think I was as well versed with the counters yet so I don't believe I utilized them as much as I do now.

I actually still have this deck saved in one of Yuri's slots because I'm so attached to it, even though it's not playable anymore :'( maxed out in the KC cup with her for the first time, this deck is the progenitor of the #YURISWEEP

^ the memories associated with this image are so good. we truly had it all. forever the yurisweep image to me.

next we have my second november 2024 build, notably called PreBanlistSweep because I wanted to try and reach KOG before they took hydra and predaplanet out back and shot them.

looking back this deck is a fucking mess LMFAOOO no wonder I didn't reach KOG w/ it 😵‍💫 30 card predaplant is a NO from me. I think I was just trying everything and thought fitting in as much as I could would make the deck better. It does not! I hardly EVER drew into those MST's/forbidden lances. and two fusion recoverys, three byblisps, TWO scorpios ❓❓ this deck is so inflated it's a mess. I did well with it but LORD we did not need this much going on.

assembled nightingale is funny though. remember when we could have hydra, super poly, predaplanet, sarraceniant, AND nightingale all in the same deck? good, good times <3

ok build number 3 from january-february 2025 and the first predaplant build to reach KOG, SWEEPINGVENOM V1

this deck is from like, a month ago and I already see issues w/ it LMFAO I think I'm just not a fan of double fusion recovery. especially w/ recycling plant and substitute ALSO in the deck alongside chlamydosundew. we don't need two copies!! I also don't play knightmare unicorn anymore because it's too annoying to summon and I don't enjoy link summoning. even knightmare phoenix is a last resort for me.

the double droll and lock bird is because I was so beyond annoyed with dragonic contact and that card slows it down significantly.

now for the current build and what I feel is MY definitive version for how I enjoy playing predaplant

the theme of this deck: STEALING IS FUNNY !!!

I try to focus on clearing my opponent's board by stealing their monsters for myself and either preventing them from distrupting me via mind control, using predaplast/squid drosera to spread counters and either following up w/ hydra or chlamydosundew if I can get the effect off, or tributing it with ambulomelides.

your monsters are plant food !!! 😋😋 clearing my opponent's board to fill mine will ALWAYS be funny. we do a little burglary. <3

a special shout out to sarraceniant my best friend. you've saved my entire life so many times. you search any predaplant card when you leave the field and you destroy a monster when you battle. you're glorious. <3

that's pretty much it :P I just remembered some of my old builds and how my predaplant strat essentially went from "super poly the board with a follow up later on" to "EAT MY OPPONENT'S BOARD. NO SURVIVORS" don't sleep on predator counters man!! triphyoverutum 🔜 please konami I can be trusted.

hi bb i’m back again 🤭 and this with an angsty idea

TW DRINKING!!

anyways i’m thinking about jj maybank with a reader who not only has a crush on him but who has also tried so, so hard to help him stop drinking. she’s done everything she can but nothing works and every time she thinks it’s time to give up, jj comes back asking her for help. or even worse, he shows up drunk at her house and she can’t stop herself from inviting him in and taking care of him. it’s a vicious cycle that she knows she has to break because he just, can’t stop drinking.

this is such a good concept, but i suck at writing angst, so bear with me.

it's a widely known fact that kildare was separated into two different groups; kooks and pogues. however, there were a few people who fell right in the middle. you were one of those people, never really fitting in anywhere. of course, you had a few friends on each side. you just didn't have a specific friend group. one person you hung out with more than others was jj maybank. never his friend group, though, just him. it was safe to say that your crush on him was never subtle. he knew—everyone on the island knew.

so, when he showed up to your house, bloody, bruised, and drunk, you didn't hesitate to help him inside. "jj, what happened?" you asked, worry lacing your tone. "here, come inside."

when you tried getting him inside, he fell into your arms and sobbed, "im sorry, princess. im so sorry." your heart was breaking with each word he squeaked out.

you knew he couldn't go on like this, and you knew that soon, you were going to have to give him the cold shoulder, "c'mon, j. let's go get you cleaned up," you said with a mental promise to yourself that next time, the door would he locked.

it took a lot of effort to get him up the stairs and onto your bed. "alright, pretty boy. wanna stay here so i can get stuff to clean you up?" he only nodded in response, focusing on the wall instead of you.

when you returned, you found him on his back on your bed. "no, jj. you have to sit up, and then we can sleep, i promise," you whispered, attempting to pull his body up. you damped the cotton ball with rubbing alcohol and warned the blonde boy sat in front of you, "this is gonna hurt a little, okay?" he grabbed your free hand and squeezed it tight when you placed the cotton ball on the large wound by his eye.

it only took a moment to clean him up, as most of his wounds were bruises. "can i have a hug, princess?" you wanted to say no, you wanted to kick him out right now and never let him back in until he was sober. you wrapped your arms around him and leaned in. "stay with me tonight?" he asked, looking up at you.

how could you say no? "okay."

jj was still dead asleep the next morning, and you hated yourself for letting him in in the first place. you got up to head to the bathroom, gently slipping out of bed. you trotted over to the door that was connected to your bedroom. after peeing and then brushing your teeth, you decided to take a quick shower.

you couldn't have been in the shower for more than ten minutes, only washing your hair. but when you walked out in a towel, jj was gone. there was no use in looking for him, you knew he was long gone.

but this time, you were going to make good on your promise. the next time he shows up, drunk and bloody, you wouldn't let him in.

this is really short, but it's been sitting in my drafts for entirely too long. so here you go, ml.

part two coming 🔜

So jeongin likes to bet persued and it’s not much it pda, but I was expecting a description similar to Felix 😅. Like o get it he isn’t much into pda but from the cats you pulled , what type of kiss he likes? French kisses, water, dry, slow or fast?

Emoji 🔜🤌🏻

answering publicly because the jeongin saga never ends lol. I think it's better to just share this with everyone at the same time instead of having to go over the same thing again and again and again... 🥴

I wrote what they allowed me to write at the time, dear follower... don't @ me if this good Sir doesn't like to give details on how he's locking lips with others. It's on him, not me 👽

Ok, but: he likes them dry and slow; nothing too clingy or messy. Not a big fan of tongue action - that was obvious.

AI Panic: What They Don’t Want You to Understand #4

Based on the video: AI Wars: How Corporations Hijacked the Anti‑AI Movement

🌍 The Eco-Scare: AI’s Carbon Footprint as a Convenient Scapegoat

You’ve seen the headlines:

“Training an AI model emits as much CO₂ as five cars in a year!” “Generative AI is an environmental disaster!” “Is ChatGPT killing the planet?”

Dramatic. Scary. But when you trace the numbers — and the motives — it all smells a little... convenient.

Step 1: Compare what they’re not comparing

Yes, training large models uses electricity. But guess what else does?

YouTube’s global streaming.

TikTok’s infinite scroll.

High-end CGI rendering for Marvel movies.

Data centers powering Netflix, Zoom, and... every corporate ad server ever.

But no one’s calling for bans on video filters or 4K cat videos.

📌 Selective outrage = strategic distraction.

Step 2: The scale is distorted on purpose

When critics say:

“Training one model used XXX megawatt-hours,”

They omit the context:

That model then serves millions of users.

It replaces far more inefficient human labor or legacy systems.

Newer models are constantly getting more efficient.

They also ignore the real polluters: massive cloud services from the very companies now blaming open AI for being “dirty.”

Step 3: Greenwashing meets gatekeeping

Corporations suddenly care about “AI’s energy use”... When it’s not their AI.

But when it’s their cloud-based, API-locked, credit-card-required platform? Suddenly, it’s “green,” “ethical,” and “optimized.”

They frame open-source models as “wasteful” to justify:

centralized control,

higher pricing tiers,

and limits on who’s allowed to create.

What’s actually sustainable?

True sustainability isn’t banning tools. It’s:

decentralizing compute,

making models smaller and local,

and giving users control over how and where energy is spent.

Ironically, the open AI community is doing more for efficiency than any Big Tech “green team.”

What to watch for

When someone blames AI for ecological collapse, ask:

What’s their baseline?

Are they comparing it to global advertising? Video? Smartphones?

Or just hand-picking numbers for shock value?

AI isn’t clean or dirty. But the narrative is being scrubbed spotless for corporate convenience.

🔜 Coming up in Part 5:

Job loss hysteria — why “AI is replacing everyone” is a myth used to justify layoffs, sell solutions, and shut you up.

UPB Token The Future of Crypto Payments & Banking is Here

In today’s fast-moving digital age, the way we handle money is rapidly evolving. From traditional banks to decentralized apps, the world is shifting towards faster, safer, and more transparent financial systems. Right at the heart of this transformation is the UPB Token — a powerful digital asset built to lead the next generation of crypto banking and payments.

What is UPB Token?

UPB Token is the native cryptocurrency of Universal Payment Bank (UPB), a digital-first platform that blends traditional banking services with the power of blockchain. This token is designed to serve as a utility asset across UPB’s ecosystem, allowing users to make instant payments, stake for rewards, and access banking services using crypto.

But unlike many tokens that lack real-world application, UPB Token is built for utility — to be used, not just traded. It integrates with Crypto UPI, supports cross-border transfers, and fuels multiple decentralized services.

Why UPB Token is Different

Let’s explore what makes UPB Token stand out in a saturated crypto market:

1. Crypto Banking Services

UPB Token powers a full range of crypto banking features. From savings wallets and staking accounts to instant lending and bill payments, UPB is building a banking model for the blockchain age.

2. Seamless Crypto UPI Integration

With Crypto UPI, users can send and receive money using their UPB Tokens just like a regular UPI transaction — but faster and on-chain. This unique feature puts UPB far ahead in the crypto payment solutions space.

3. Low Fees, High Speed

UPB Token transactions are near-instant and come with minimal gas fees, making it ideal for daily use — whether you're transferring funds, shopping online, or paying vendors.

4. Global Reach

UPB isn't just limited to India. The project aims to expand across borders, enabling frictionless international payments with no middlemen, high exchange rates, or delays.

Top Use Cases of UPB Token

Here’s where and how you can actually use the UPB Token in real life:

💳 Pay online merchants via UPB-supported payment gateways

📲 Send peer-to-peer payments through Crypto UPI

🏦 Earn staking rewards by holding UPB Token in your UPB Wallet

📈 Trade on crypto exchanges and grow your investment

🌐 Use in decentralized apps (dApps) and future UPB platforms

UPB Token is not just a digital coin — it’s the engine behind a smart, blockchain-powered banking system.

How to Get UPB Token

Getting started with UPB is simple. Follow these steps:

Sign up on upbbank.com or any official partner exchange.

Complete KYC (Know Your Customer) for security and compliance.

Deposit INR, USDT, or other supported cryptos.

Buy UPB Token and store them in your secure UPB Wallet.

Once you own UPB Tokens, you can start using them right away — for payments, staking, or investing.

What Makes UPB Token a Smart Investment?

If you're asking yourself whether UPB Token is worth your money, here’s what you need to know:

Utility-backed value: It's not just hype — UPB Token has real-world use across a functional financial ecosystem.

Growing adoption: As more users and merchants join UPB, the demand for UPB Token will naturally rise.

Staking returns: Holders can earn passive income by locking tokens in the platform.

Transparency & security: With blockchain technology at its core, all transactions are secure, traceable, and immutable.

In short, it’s a future-focused asset that combines crypto innovation with real-world usability.

UPB Token and the Road Ahead

UPB has ambitious plans for the future. Here's a look at what’s coming:

🔜 Listings on major crypto exchanges

💳 Launch of UPB debit cards linked to your crypto wallet

📱 Release of UPB mobile app with advanced banking features

💼 Tie-ups with merchants for UPB payment acceptance

🌎 Cross-border partnerships for global remittances

The goal? To make UPB Token the go-to currency for digital banking and payments — worldwide.

Final Thoughts: Is UPB Token Right for You?

If you’re tired of the limitations of traditional banking and want to be part of a secure, transparent, and fast digital finance ecosystem, the UPB Token is a solid choice. It’s not just another coin on the market — it’s a complete solution for banking, payments, and financial empowerment.

With its utility-driven roadmap and Crypto UPI innovation, UPB is building something big — and this is your chance to get in early.

Salvation 13

Summary: It started with a look and then a smile. She was just another name on a continuous list of rotating faces. But then she smiled, and it wrecked his world. He would lie, cheat, and kill, just to keep her in his orbit.

Trigger Warning ⚠️: Obsession, Manipulation, Stalker Behavior

Word Count: 301

Chapter 13: The Dance

Enjoy!

Story Poll!

Series Poll!

It felt like a dance.

She was beginning to notice him now—not just as her captain, not just as the man who gave orders and stood tall in the face of fire, but as something else. Something harder to define.

And he fed it.

He gave her just enough—eye contact that lingered a breath too long, words laced with weight when no one else was listening, a brush of fingers when he handed her gear. Just enough to show her she had his attention. That he saw her.

But never enough to expose the depth of it.

He kept the rest locked behind gritted teeth and a stiff spine.

They spent more time alone now. Long stretches of silence that neither of them rushed to fill. Quiet shared across armory tables and briefing rooms, across late patrols and slower nights. She leaned closer in those moments, gradually, like her body remembered something her mind hadn’t caught up with.

And he let her.

The tilt of her head. The shift in her weight. The quiet awareness between them.

There was heat in her gaze now. Slow. Building. Like embers waiting for oxygen.

Once, after a mission that nearly cracked them both, she lit his cigar.

Her fingers brushed his as she struck the match. Her eyes didn’t move from his. Not once.

It wasn’t a favor. It wasn’t gratitude.

It was a promise.

Like she was telling him, without speaking, I’m still here. I’m here for you.

And he felt it—God, he felt it.

But still, he said nothing.

Because if he said one word, just one, it would all come pouring out. The want. The hunger. The madness that lived under his skin.

So he smoked in silence, the match burning down to her fingertips.

And her gaze stayed on him.

wolfYLady: Another chapter! Let me know what you think! Dang, I cranked these out! Haven't written the next chapter, but here's hoping the muses haven't abandoned me yet!

Please let me know what you think. 🤔 💭

What should happen next?
