Real talk

The Covenant was one of the best magic movies of 2006 and it should've gotten its sequels.

“But my mother is going to read this!” my husband said, worried after he’d read a pivotal sex scene in my new novel.

“Yes, she will,” I countered. “But don’t forget she had you … and sorry to break the news, but it wasn’t the stork that made it happen.”

- Lisa Barr

For all my fellow writers out there nervous about writing a sex scene in their story, here's an interesting article to help. Whether it's OG content or a fanfic, you deserve to express yourself.

Keep writing.

SSI Restoration Act of 2021

i have never made a post like this before but i haven’t seen anyone here talk about it yet so i want to at least provide some links because this is extremely important for disabled people with or without benefits in the USA.

link to this tiktok

she doesn’t name the bill in the video but in the comments it’s clarified that the act referred to is the SSI Restoration Act of 2021.

“The Supplementary Security Income (SSI) Restoration Act of 2021 has been introduced in both the House and the Senate. The bill would improve the lives of millions of SSI beneficiaries around the country, including over 2 million older adults who are living below the federal poverty level due to inadequate benefit levels, and often lose or are denied benefits due to outdated eligibility rules.” (link) - summary from Justice In Aging, an organization dedicated to fighting senior poverty

“This bill restores a program that plays a key role in the security of millions of Americans. Specifically, it modernizes and improves SSI by streamlining and simplifying the claiming process, expanding the resources and income limits, and eliminating punitive reductions in benefits.” (link) - summary from the SSI Restoration Act Section by Section, linked on Congressman Raúl M. Grijalva’s website, in the social security tab

below is taken from the issue brief on justiceinaging.org regarding what the bill entails

• The SSI benefit rate will be increased to at least 100% of the Federal Poverty Level, adjusted annually, so that no one receiving SSI will be left to live below the poverty line.

• Couples will receive their full SSI benefit, totaling twice the individual rate, rather than a reduced marriage penalty rate.

• Low-income seniors and people with disabilities who can’t work enough to meet all their basic needs will be able to save up to $10,000 and couples will be able to save up to $20,000 for emergencies such as car repairs, new roofs, and other unexpected expenses, without losing benefits.

• Individuals will be able to receive up to $128 monthly from other sources, such as Social Security benefits or pension payments, without a corresponding loss in benefits.

• Individuals who are able to work will be able to earn up to $416 a month without being penalized.

• Individuals who live in households with others, including family members, will no longer be penalized with lower benefits through the in-kind support and maintenance provision.

• Individuals who transfer assets (even small amounts of money to a family member) will no longer suffer harsh penalties.

• Eliminate installment payment requirements and extend the time to spend down resources so that SSI recipients who have been waiting for months or years to obtain their benefits can receive the full overdue amount.

• Exclude retirement accounts from countable resources to allow people with disabilities to build up their savings for retirement and use those resources to pay for expenses in later life.

• State and local earned income tax credits and child tax credits will be excluded from income calculations in the same manner as general tax payments.”

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Look buddy, i’m just trying to make it to Friday.

LOKI SERIES Episode 1

I can't put my anger into words. That's how furious this makes me.

Hey all, remember when ‘Heathen’ was trademarked and it was super infuriating?

Well that stunt is getting pulled again. Someone who isn’t even a heathen is trying to trademark ‘Forn Sidr’ and is going after Forn Sidr of America for it.

I cannot emphasize enough how absolutely buckwild this story is. Even if you don’t donate to help FSoA cover legal fees, at least click through to read about the tea.

As always, please donate if you can but reblogs and reposts go a long way even if you have a small blog. Forn Sidr of America needs to achieve this goal by December 18th so it’s crucial this gets around!

Hate me all you want, but I've been through my own sexual assault nightmare at the hands of a trusted friend and going to the internet to solve your problems doesn't fucking help anything. Go to the fucking cops or your loved ones. SPEAK UP. ANYTHING but getting a fan base involved in something that's none of your goddamn business. One of these parties is lying and I hope you disrespectful fucks get what you deserve.

Unless you go to someone, an adult, a parent, a friend, an officer, about sexual assault, rape, etc., It'll just be your word against theirs and you will not get the justice you deserve. Yes I know the justice system needs a HUGE facelift but I'd rather go that route and get this fucker on the sex offender list. That's worse than jail. That'll never go away.

I've also seen innocent men be accused of rape as well, and that's something that deserves awareness.

Furthermore, just because they don't serve the jail time you think they deserve, they're still permanently marked. They have to register as a sex offender and if you don't, you go back to jail for LONGER THAN THE INITIAL SENTENCE. So, with that, before anyone calls me a rape apologist or sympathizer, understand that I've seen both sides of the spectrum enough to understand what goes on and I don't need a bunch of keyboard warriors to inform me or degrade me for having a difference of opinion.

People can lie about this to be vindictive assholes, you know, so excuse me for staying on the fence until there is an actual court proceeding that states the truth. Not all states follow the same flawed protocol as others, and if you want to change that, vote. Don't blindly follow a smear campaign.

Go ahead and unfollow me. I don't give a fuck anymore. This whole ordeal should have been handled privately. In case you haven't noticed: ANY PUBLIC LEAK OF SENSITIVE INFO INVOLVING A CASE IS IMMEDIATELY COMPROMISED. Social media should not be taking the place of a courtroom, jury, and judge. How can we make a change if we don't put our best foot forward and tackle this head on?

In conclusion, I don't sympathize with anyone who commits these crimes. Ever. Period.
