Big Tech Braces for Wave of Antitrust Rulings in 2024
U.S. antitrust cases against tech giants Google and Meta Platforms are expected to come to a head in 2024, likely producing long-awaited rulings that could shape the legacies of top Biden administration regulators. Silicon Valley and its critics have seen their patience tested on some of these cases. A U.S. antitrust case brought against Alphabet’s Google unit in 2020 went to trial in 2023 and…

w.c: 1.5k
[archive]
“Stop.”
His giggles were glittery. Just hearing them would set off a flutter in your chest. “What? I’m just appreciating nature and its beauty.” You could practically hear the smile from his voice.
It took a lot of strength to not look up, to keep your gaze firmly situation on the letters that ran along the page in front of you. Your fingers tightened around the soft copy covers of the novel in your hands, thumb rubbing against the paper as you tried to read the next sentence.
It was an impossible task, you quickly realised, your senses distracted by the ticklish sensation of grass against your ankles. The culprit, however, wasn’t the innocent grass field of the park, but actually your attention whore of a boyfriend, laying on his stomach by your feet, drawing little invisible doodles on your bare calf with the tip of the grass blade.
more under cut !!
You knew what he was doing, the unsubtly in the teasing glances that he’d sneak your way, observing your reaction, seeing how long it would take for you to break. It was one of his more annoying qualities that you couldn’t help but find endearing… eventually.
At that moment though, you resolved to simply tap your finger against the corner of the book, your eyes unfocused, not a single word on the page registering as you pursed your lips, squashing whatever tiny smile wanted to make itself known. You were gonna last this time.
See, previous times it had happened — and yes, it happened a lot — Jake would usually win. Whether it was his inconspicuous back hugs which eventually had him pulling you away from whatever you were doing previously, or the more blatantly obvious way he’d smile, quirk his head to the side, and pull you along with him.
Jake was simply irresistible. And he knew it, which is always a problem.
That afternoon, however, you‘d decided the best way to defeat him, is to divert him, distract him, and so you set your plan into motion;
“Jakey, what does this word mean?”
“Hm?”
Immediately the grass blade was abandoned, the pursuit to tease was thrown aside and your puppy dog of a boyfriend had pulled himself up and shuffled closer, leaning his back against the large tree trunk, just like you.
He pouted his lips, following your finger as you pointed out the word. “Iota? I thought you were reading a romance book…”
You scoffed, “I am.” Slipping your bookmark into the spine you closed the book to show him the cover. ‘To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before’ was printed in pretty ribbon-like loops of text, glossy and black against the light baby pink background.
Jake smirked, opening the book once more to read out the sentence before he started explaining the origins of ‘iota’ (ancient greek text), and the significance of that letter (it’s the smallest in the alphabet), and how it applies in a modern context (“Basically, babe, it means you couldn’t give less of a fuck”).
You bit your lip, suppressing your laughter as you carefully pulled out your bookmark and continued reading. Your head rested against Jake‘s shoulder, his voice slowly helping you relax as he continued to explain random yet somewhat applicable definitions to the word ‘iota’.
You couldn’t really understand, mostly because you were only paying like 40% of your attention on what he was saying. Zoning in and out every now and then, catching a few anecdotes about his senior year maths class and imaginary numbers, whatever those mean.
Just as you reached the next chapter, you felt Jake tap your forehead. “Are you sleeping?”
“What? No!” You shuffled back a bit, looking at him incredulously.
Jake’s eyes darted down to the novel in your hands, noticing the next chapters number on the page. “You’re reading? I thought you were listening to me,” he whined, an embarrassed little smile on his lips.
You shut the book in an instant, completely forgetting about your bookmark. “I am!” You insisted, choosing to summaries his explanation as proof. “You said it was ancient greek alphabet, the smallest of them all, means I couldn’t give less of a flying fu—”
“Fine, what was the last thing I said?”
You stilled, “Uh…” Mind going blank, you figured a blind shot in the dark wouldn’t hurt, safest option, honestly. “…That I’m the love of your life?”
Jake‘s expression fell flat. “No, I didn’t—”
“I’m not the love of your life?!”
“That’s not what I— …Well played.” Quirking his lip a little, Jake sighed, holding out his fist as a peace offering.
“Thank you.” Smirking, you fist bumped him, before looking back down to open your book. But you paused, eyes glancing back to your unused bookmark. You flicked your head towards Jake, “I don’t—”
“Chapter twenty,” he said smoothly, before turning around and using your fumbling to rest his head on your lap.
“Enjoy the flattering angle,” you mutter, dryly.
Jake stayed silent, his gaze fixated on you, on the way your hair fell in front of your eyes and you constantly brushed it away and yet refused to pin it back. Or the way you very, very softly mouthed the words you were reading, ever so faintly, it’s barely a whisper. Or how you’d smile at the stories events before quickly controlling your expression so you don’t look like a fool, grinning at a book.
Jake sighed, brushing his hair back. “I guess the story’s interesting?”
You hummed. “Somewhat.”
“Somewhat?” He sat up. “Then pay attention to me.”
You leaned forward and kissed his cheek, before settling back against the tree. “I would, baby, but I need to beat Yunjin at this month’s goodreads challenge. And I would have beaten her last week but—”
“But I dragged you to the couch for movie night—”
“Which I loved. Among other things that night.” You suppressed your smile.
Nudging your knee with his, Jake let out a breathy chuckle. “Shh, there’s kids running around”
You shook your head, amused. “What I’m saying is, I love spending time with you. So much so that I want you around even if I’m just doing something by myself. But you make it so damn hard for me to concentrate.”
Your eyes had completely left the page yet again, finding your focus purely captured by the comfort that Jake gave you whenever he was present, the kind of relaxation where you simply get to exist, side by side, and that’s enough. It truly was his fault that you were this distracted.
Though, he obviously didn’t think so.
“That’s on you,” his eyes shone with that cheeky charm that he seemed to never run out of. His fingers rested on your knee, tapping away as he spoke. “I can’t exactly just stay put like some loser when I have the most irresistible person for a girlfriend.”
You scoffed, “I thought you were the irresistible one.”
Your mind replayed memories of past instances where Jake would send you a smug grin, throwing his arms wide open, surmising that he was simply irresistible and you should just give in (translation: he just wants hugs).
Jake shrugged. “Well, I am. But it’s not like I’ve got monopoly over it.”
“Mhm.”
He watched as you, yet again, tried to concentrate on the novel at hand, to get some progress in your reading. But your competitiveness was faltering and he could see it.
On the one hand, he wanted you to win, for your own happiness.
On the other hand… “C’mere.”
“Hm?”
Jake leaned closer, cupping your jaw as he went in to kiss you. You knew there was no hope of finishing another chapter anymore. Let alone the book. Jake had this way of capturing your entire soul, of holding it in his warm hands, keeping it safe. The same way it felt to have his hands holding your face, his thumb softly rubbing your cheek, his tiny giggles unable to be contained between your kisses.
“You’re a jerk,” you whisper, smiling so wide that the implication of such a sentence made no sense in comparison.
“Right,” Jake leaned forward and gave you a quick peck. “But you know, if you’d really wanted to read today, you wouldn’t have brought me along.”
You nudged your forehead against his. “Fair point.”
The novel slid from hands, flat on your lap as you moved your fingers along nape of his neck. You’d just started pulling him closer by his chain necklace when—
“Hey mister!”
Jake flinched and looked to the side at the tiny irritated mass in light up sketchers standing a meter away.
“Your dog has my ball!”
“Oh shit…” You shifted back as you watched your boyfriend scramble to get up, cursing his clicking joints as he ran. “Layla!!”
“Guess you win this month, Yunjinnie.” Hurriedly putting the book back in your bag, you got up and ran after Jake.
a.n: third instalment of the kiss me, don’t say no series !! even if it’s officially feb 9th i’m holding off until i get up again in the actual morning to publish jungwon’s — skipping sunsun for now! sorry :( i just really wanna get jungwon’s out on his birthday !!!! anyway, i hope you liked this one <3

Jake Webber nsfw alphabet. I love those but I’ve never seen one for Jake
NSFW alphabet
☆ Yesssss!
☆ Jake Webber X Reader
☆ Smut
☆ Masterlist
☆ Hey guys! Before anything else I would ask you to request anything you want because I've lost a lot of motivation and it would really help! :D (Please look at pinned post to see if requests are open.)
☆ Creds to @cafekitsune for dividers :)
A = Aftercare
(what they’re like after sex)
Jake is definitely the best person for aftercare,he will help/do whatever you need.
You want a bath? Stay there he’s running to start one. You want cuddles? He has two arms and a chest for you.
B = Body part
(their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
His favourite body part on himself is definitely his hands,he knows how to use them too.
His favourite body part on you however? Your thighs. I will not elaborate.
C = Cum
(anything to do with cum, basically)
Love,love,lovessss to cum inside of you if your on the pill,if not he’s willing to make the biggest mess possible.
On your back? Done. On your chest? Done. Anywhere he can get to in the moment has had his cum dripping down it.
D = Dirty secret
(pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
Has definitely jacked off to you and would love the idea of mutual masturbation.
He would probably never tell you unless he was drunk or it came up in conversation.
“You’re my girlfriend of course I’ve jacked off to you.”
E = Experience
(how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)
Omd. Jake has had so much experience that it’s unreal,he loves his experience with you though.
He will have discovered all of your kinks by your first time together and he would openly admit that.
F = Favorite position
(this goes without saying)
Loves everything but I think he’s especially loving of doggy,why? Because your face mushed into the pillows,your makeup falling off your face and onto the bed? Loves it.
G = Goofy
(are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)
He’s a mix of both,thinks theres always going to be moments to laugh about but also some moments that are supposed to be serious.
H = Hair
(how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
He does not care at all. What do I mean? If you haven’t shaved,he’s going down their anyways and the same goes for him,he doesn’t care if you have or haven’t shaved and doesn’t care if he’s shaved if you don’t care either.
If you cared about him shaving I feel like he would make it a point to shave before having any intimacy.
I = Intimacy
(how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)
He is daddy dom cl. He would definitely be romantic sometimes and especially if you’ve had a bad day he will be sensual and sweet but if you haven’t? He is rough and fast and doesn’t mind making you shed a few tears.
J = Jack off
(masturbation headcanon)
He thinks about mutual masturbation daily,I feel like he wouldn’t bring it up and would hope you ask him about it anyways.
Has definitely scrolled through your instagram to find you look pretty and to then find himself with a hard on.
If you’re not to be found he will Jack off but if he knows where you are,he coming for you in both ways.
K = Kink
(one or more of their kinks)
Spanking- definitely has a thing for slapping you on the ass,whether that be with his hand or with a belt.
Handcuffs- Loves tying you to the bed to watch you squirm and attempt to wiggle out of it while he uses you like the pathetic slut you are <3
Degrading- Would definitely call you a pathetic slut etc., but will always have ‘my’ on the front (e.g “my pathetic slut”)
Praise- Would also through in praise whilst degrading you (e.g “My Pretty little slut”)
L = Location
(favorite places to do the do)
He knows he’s basic but he loves the bed,sofa and anyways you can lay down and still have comfort. Would always put your comfort before his,doesn’t care if your in the middle of nowhere as long as your comfortable so is he.
Wouldn’t particularly like the shower because he has a fear that one of you will slip and if you hurt yourself he knows he would blame himself even if it wasn’t his fault.
M = Motivation
(what turns them on, gets them going)
He gets turned on so easily but your favourite way to tell him you’re in the mood would definitely be to sit on his lap.
Loves the feeling of power over you as well,if he thinks he has an upper hand he gets turned on tbh.
Also likes when you wear short skirts/crop tops,I will not elaborate.
N = No
(something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
Wouldn’t do anything to genuinely hurt you,if he knew you didn’t like something he would hate it too. He hates making you feel anything that isn’t pleasurable.
O = Oral
(preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
Huge giver and receiver,loves returning the favour as well.
If you’ve had a bad day that man is ready to give you everything you’ve ever wanted,even if he gets nothing from it.
Loves seeing his little girl happy :( <3
P = Pace
(are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)
Easy,fast and rough. He loves fucking you like he’s mad and especially loves hate sex + makeup sex after a fight.
Although I also feel like if you’ve had a bad day/genuinely upset with him about something he would rather be slow and sensual and focus on you.
Q = Quickie
(their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
I feel like he doesn’t mind quickies but isn’t a massive fan. Loves having his time with you and doing what he wants.
R = Risk
(are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)
Definitely,to everything. “Hey Jake so I was wondering if you wanted to-“ will always say yes,he wants to try everything with you,he wants you to be his last.
Will openly admit if he doesn’t like something,but would definitely still try something that’s new to both of you even if he ends up not liking it.
He would also definitely have semi-public sex with you because he finds the adrenaline to be a huge turn on.If you get caught what’s the worst that can happen?
S = Stamina
(how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)
Could go for as many rounds as you can,would never let you down. Would definitely overstimulate you if you could only take a round or two.
T = Toys
(do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)
This man loves toys,sees them as a friend,not an enemy.
Loves to see you come undone on plastic then laugh at you,proceeding to show you how much better his own cock is.
U = Unfair
(how much they like to tease)
He would tease you till the world ended. Would love to see you needy and begging for him whilst he eggs you on only to let you down. Would eventually let you come undone but not without hours of teasing and edging.
V = Volume
(how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
Wouldn’t really moan but would definitely grunt/groan whilst he’s inside of you,in anyway possible.
W = Wild card
(a random headcanon for the character)
Loves to have you pinned underneath him,definitely a dom and loves, loves,loves pillow princess’.
X = X-ray
(let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
6inches and he knows how to use it. That’s it,will not elaborate.
Y = Yearning
(how high is their sex drive?)
His sex drive is pretty moderate maybe about 3-4 times a week but if you have a high sex drive he will make it 10x higher for the both of you.
Z = Zzz
(how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
He wouldn’t really fall asleep any quicker than he usually does. Also wouldn’t fall asleep until everything cleaned up (including you) and he knows you’re okay.
Would love to cuddle with you after rather than either of you falling asleep. He doesn’t mind if you fall asleep as long as he’s got some cuddles <3

Life of Two Vampire Queens (IU/CL)
Author: Just another AI-written story that I came up with. Hope you enjoy and do check out my Masterlist
CL's POV
I took a deep breath as I stepped away from the throne, feeling the weight of centuries of ruling finally being lifted from my shoulders. The decision to retire had been a difficult one, but with my one-year-old baby, Y/N, growing up so quickly, I knew it was time to focus my attention on him.
As I moved into a cozy beachside mansion, I found joy in watching Y/N learn to walk and say his first adorable words. But the realization quickly hit me—now that I was retiring, I would have to homeschool the little troublemaker. Oh, how naive I was to think it would be a simple task. Life with Y/N was a series of near-disasters and constant mischief.
No matter how vigilant I was, he always seemed to find a way to stir up trouble. One minute I would turn my eyes away, and the next, he'd be dangling precariously from the chandelier.
It was one restless night when I woke up, sensing something was amiss. My heart raced, but instead of panicking, I trusted my instincts. I gently slipped out of bed, careful not to alert Y/N as I crept through the dark house.
His presence guided me, his scent like a compass, leading me to his whereabouts. I found him in the kitchen, sitting on the countertop, his tiny fingers tracing the edge of a sharp knife. The sight brought forth a mix of relief and frustration. "Y/N! You naughty rascal," I scolded, sweeping him up into my arms. "You could've hurt yourself!"
In that moment, I realized that raising Y/N would never be easy. But, as I looked into his innocent eyes, I couldn't help but find his mischief amusing. Life had become an adventure, filled with laughter and the occasional scream of terror. And somehow, amidst the chaos, I found joy.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months as Y/N continued to explore the world around him. Each day brought a new challenge, a new opportunity for him to test my patience and creativity.
Teaching a two-year-old was no easy feat, especially when his attention span rivalled that of a caffeinated squirrel. I tried to instill knowledge in him, from basic mathematics to the beauty of language, but his mischievous nature often got in the way.
One day, as we sat at the kitchen table, trying to learn the alphabet, Y/N decided it was an ideal time to toss his cereal across the room, creating a sea of colorful letters. I sighed, on the verge of exasperation. "Y/N, baby, we need to focus," I pleaded, desperately trying to regain his attention.
He giggled mischievously, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Cherwee!" he exclaimed, pointing at a random letter on the floor. I laughed, unable to resist the infectious joy that radiated from him. "It's not 'cherwee,' darling. It's 'three.' Can you say that?"
Y/N scrunched up his face, contemplating the word. After a moment of silence, he erupted with a high-pitched shriek. "Thwee!"
"Yes, close enough!" I praised him, clapping my hands.
Life with Y/N continued to be a whirlwind of laughter and chaos. Each day brought new adventures, from building pillow forts to attempting to bake cookies (which ended up resembling charcoal briquettes). Y/N was a constant reminder of the joys and challenges of motherhood.
One evening, as we snuggled together on the couch, Y/N cuddled into my arms, a contented hum escaping his lips. I watched him sleep peacefully, his tiny frame rising and falling with each delicate breath.
In those quiet moments, I reflected on the love that enveloped us. Yes, Y/N was a handful, constantly bringing mayhem into our lives. But he was also the embodiment of my love, a tiny piece of me that I cherished.
As Y/N dreamt, I tucked a stray lock of hair behind his ear, marveling at the beautiful mess he had made of our once orderly lives.
And in that moment, surrounded by the remnants of yet another adventure, I knew that the chaos was worth every scream, every giggle, and every hum.
Years passed, and Y/N grew from a mischievous toddler into a curious and spirited child.
Together, we navigated the ups and downs of parenthood, finding joy in the simplest of moments.
The beachside mansion stood witness to our journey, bearing the marks of our laughter and the echoes of our adventures. It continued to be a place of endless discoveries, where love flourished amidst chaos.
Author's POV
Lee Jieun, the newly crowned Vampire Queen, sat upon her majestic throne, adorned in her regal attire. Her royal duties took up most of her time, but there was one task that proved to be an even greater challenge: raising her two-year-old toddler husband, Lee Y/N.
As she presided over her kingdom, surrounded by advisors and courtiers, Y/N would cling to her leg and tug on her garments, yearning for her attention.
Jieun would force a smile, stifling any frustration that threatened to bubble up. After all, it wouldn't do for a queen to lose her composure in front of her subjects.
Her older sister, Lee Chaerin, observed this scene with amusement. With a mischievous twinkle in her eyes, she leaned in closer to her sister, whispering, "Jieun, you're doing such a fantastic job ruling over these bloodsuckers. But perhaps it's time to call in reinforcements. Why not let Princess Kim Taeyeon look after the little troublemaker for a while?"
Jieun considered the suggestion. Taeyeon was a trusted ally and a capable babysitter.
Maybe it was time for her to take a much-needed break from the demands of parenthood. "You know what, Chaerin? I think that's a splendid idea. Let Taeyeon have a turn at keeping Y/N entertained."
And so, during a particularly intense negotiation meeting with the neighboring werewolf clan, Princess Kim Taeyeon took charge of the mischievous toddler.
She carted him off to the playroom, where toys and distractions galore awaited.
Jieun breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for the momentary respite. With her mind now free from the worries of hearing a tiny voice during important discussions, the queen focused on the matters at hand.
She deftly addressed each concern, displaying the grace and wisdom befitting of a ruler.
But just as she thought she had found her equilibrium, a shrill cry of longing pierced the serenity of the throne room. Jieun's heart sank as she recognized that unmistakable wail—it was Y/N.
She hurriedly excused herself and raced to the playroom, finding Y/N tucked in a corner, surrounded by toys he had flung to the floor during his tantrum. Her heart softened at the sight of his tear-streaked face, and she couldn't resist the urge to scoop him up into her arms.
"There, there, my little one," Jieun cooed, gently rocking him back and forth. "Mama is here. Mama will always be here."
She kissed his forehead and carried him back to the throne room, where he nestled against her shoulder.
As she settled back onto her throne, she addressed her advisors, exuding a newfound determination. "From now on, I will manage both my duties as the Vampire Queen and my role as Y/N's guardian. I will show him the love and attention he deserves, regardless of where life takes me."
And so, Lee Jieun embraced the challenges of ruling her kingdom and raising her two-year-old toddler husband.
With a balance of patience, love, and the occasional interruption, she found a way to fulfill her responsibilities with unwavering grace.
As Y/N grew older, he became more accustomed to the courtly affairs, often joining Jieun during important meetings.
Together, they thrived, their unique dynamic becoming the talk of both vampire and human realms alike.
And so, the Vampire Queen and her remarkable toddler husband presided over their kingdom, leaving an indelible mark on the immortal world and proving that love knows no boundaries, even in the unlikeliest of circumstances.
"Yes! I shall conquer this throne!" Jieun proclaimed, hugging Y/N close, laughter filling the air.

"Songs And Story Time (Songs From "When We Were Very Young"
Gene Kelly, renowned for his energetic dance performances and iconic roles in Hollywood musicals, also ventured into the world of children's entertainment, particularly with Columbia Records. His "Songs and Story Time" albums are beloved examples of this, showcasing his warm, expressive voice beyond his on-screen persona.
While there might be slight variations in title or specific tracklists across different pressings and reissues, the core of Gene Kelly's Columbia children's albums revolves around two main types of content:
Nursery Songs: Kelly's charming renditions of classic nursery rhymes. He sings these with a clear, enthusiastic delivery, making them engaging for young listeners.
Storytelling: Kelly narrates popular children's stories, often with accompanying musical cues and sound effects. His acting background shines through in his ability to bring characters and narratives to life through his voice alone.
Key Album Releases and Details (from Columbia Records):
Gene Kelly's children's recordings for Columbia Records primarily originated from sessions in the mid to late 1940s, after the success of films like "Anchors Aweigh." These were initially released on 78 RPM shellac records (often in multi-record sets, sometimes with accompanying storybooks) and later compiled onto 33 1/3 RPM LPs.
One of the most notable and frequently reissued titles is "Nursery Songs & Stories" (Columbia catalog number CL 1063, later reissued on the Harmony budget label as HL 9521). This LP typically features:
Side A: Nursery Songs
London Bridges
Jack And Jill
Sing A Song Of Sixpence
Mary Had A Little Lamb
Little Boy Blue
Pop! Goes The Weasel
Pussy Cat
Mulberry Bush
Little Bo Peep
Hickory Dickory Dock
See Saw Margery Daw
Billy Boy
The Farmer In The Dell
Ten Little Indians
Alphabet Song
Three Little Kittens (sometimes included)
Side B: Stories
The Shoemaker And The Elves
The Cuckoo Who Lived In The Clock (sometimes titled differently or replaced by other stories like "Peter Rabbit" or "The Pied Piper of Hamelin" on other releases/compilations).
Another significant release was "Songs And Story Time (Songs From "When We Were Very Young" / The House That Wouldn't)" released on Harmony (HL 9529). This LP features songs based on A.A. Milne's poems ("When We Were Very Young") on one side and a story on the other.
Gene Kelly's warm, engaging vocal style and ability to inhabit characters made these recordings a hit with families. They offered a different facet of his talent, proving he was as captivating with spoken word and song for children as he was with dance on screen. For many, these albums were a cherished part of their childhood, introducing them to classic stories and nursery rhymes through the voice of a beloved star.

Don’t all Sakamaki’s speak romanian tho? After all they lived in Romania more than they lived in japan so learning the language was obvious.
No hate tho, just trying to make something clear.
hi there!
no, the Sakamaki's never lived in Romania. there may be some confusion because the castle they grew up in was very westernised in terms of its design, but it's been clearly stated in multiple games (DF, LE, CL) that the Sakamaki's grew up in the demon world.
the demon world has its own native language, and from Yuma's DF we know that this language has its own unique alphabet which he couldn't read. some of the Sakamaki's know other languages, but they moved from the demon world to Japan. they never lived in Romania.
here's a cute panel of Ayato discovering the human world for the first time!

the only Sakamaki who has been to Romania as a child was Shu. when he ran away from home, he ended up in a portal which took him to Romania. rejet never quite explained this to us but it was clear that he went FROM the demon world to Romania which is where he met Edgar. i have no idea how Shu was able to speak to Edgar but to be honest i highly doubt that rejet thought about it that far.
the Mukami's all grew up in Romanian, but the Sakamaki's did not. hope that's clear now!

K-Pop for Beginners
So a while back, I asked for k-pop recommendations (particularly up-beat dance-y type songs to jam to) and I got about 10-15 recommendations. I then did my own research into most popular/Korean pop songs sung in english that I could sing along to. Here are the songs I found that I liked the best. These songs are in my ever growing k-pop playlist on Apple Music and I have listened to them on repeat since I rediscovered “Gee” by Girls Generation (introduced to me by a friend wayyy back in high school!). Enjoy! These are all alphabetical for your OCD needs.

📑📕 for the bookish asks? Also hope you have a lovely day!
The emojis repeat, so I checked in with tempestclerics-- "I would be interested in your answers to both q’s for each emoji if you’re down! The more the merrier!"
So here we go!
What book has had the biggest impact on your life, and why?
There's this middle grade book called Heaven, by Angela Johnson, that's super significant to me because it's the first book I ever hated. I was in 6th grade, and I'd certainly bounced off books before, but I never actively disliked one. I read everything!
I don't remember what it was about Heaven (I'm sure it's a totally good book), but I HATED it, like thinking about it made me apoplectic. It gave me artistic taste and standards, which changed everything.
How do you organize your bookshelves? By genre, author, color, or in a completely unique way?
Broadly by category, then author last name. Categories are:
Novels
Single-author short story collections
Multi-author anthologies
Tordotcom novellas (broken down by trim size, then alphabetized)
Sherlock Holmes retellings (broken down into nonfiction, short stories, and novels, then alphabetized)
Comics and graphic novels
Plays
Poetry
Zines/chapbooks
Nonfiction (broken down by topic, too many to list)
This may seem excessive, but I always know exactly where each of my books are <3
Hardcover, paperback, ebook, or audiobook? Which format do you prefer?
Paperback > audiobook > hardcover > mass market > ebook
fuckin hate ebooks they hurt me eyes
Who is your all-time favorite author, and what makes their writing so special to you?
Lowkey I don't have one? For all the books that are super important to me, I either haven't read anything else by the author and don't feel comfortable saying they're my favorite, or I have read other things and don't like at least one book. I'm too picky :/
Still, I'll shout out Charlie Jane Anders, CL Polk, Maggie Stiefvater, VE Schwab, and Becky Chambers for writing multiple books I've loved, and to Chana Porter, Elizabeth Thomas, Emily C Danforth, and Mona Awad for writing individual books that kicked my ass.

Okay I'm back with more ideas.
Since IPA, which we based the script on, has all of the English alphabet within it, I thought "Hey, why not just include all possible combinations of solely English alphabet consonants?".
There are 20 consonants in English, times 20 is 400, but I will take away 20 of them since they are just double consonants (like "bb" or "zz"). Thus we got 380 new symbols, leaving us with- -drumroll-
193
-symbols left unassigned.
And I think I have just the thing. In Google Docs, there is a category of insertable symbols called "Modifier > Non-spacing", thus, diacritics.
Out of the 196 diacritical marks that appear there, 25 have already been listed above in the script (see All subscript phonetic symbols and secondary articulations).
Thus, out of those 196, we can add the ones that haven't appeared in the list already and count them as new symbols - that's 171 new symbols, which leaves us with
22
Symbols left.
And that's a very simple and small number really. What we can do here is add some extended-Latin symbols which do not count as diacritic mutations of already existing symbols, and some other ones just in case.
Say,
% & @ ß þ ſ ƿ γ δ ζ η λ μ ξ π φ χ ψ ω ‘ = 17 symbols.
We have 5 symbols left (MISTAKE - YOU WILL SEE BELOW in All possible combining non-spacing symbols).
One I will make a letter-doubler, a symbol that doubles the previous letter. That's 4 symbols left. And I know just the ones I want to add:
© ® ° ꙮ
Yes that's the multiocular O.
Alright, so to the total count, we add:
All English alphabet consonant pair combinations excluding double letters bc bd bf bg bh bj bk bl bm bn bp bq br bs bt bv bw bx bz cb cd cf cg ch cj ck cl cm cn cp cq cr cs ct cv cw cx cz db dc df dg dh dj dk dl dm dn dp dq dr ds dt dv dw dx dz fb fc fd fg fh fj fk fl fm fn fp fq fr fs ft fv fw fx fz gb gc gd gf gh gj gk gl gm gn gp gq gr gs gt gv gw gx gz hb hc hd hf hg hj hk hl hm hn hp hq hr hs ht hv hw hx hz jb jc jd jf jg jh jk jl jm jn jp jq jr js jt jv jw jx jz kb kc kd kf kg kh kj kl km kn kp kq kr ks kt kv kw kx kz lb lc ld lf lg lh lj lk lm ln lp lq lr ls lt lv lw lx lz mb mc md mf mg mh mj mk ml mn mp mq mr ms mt mv mw mx mz nb nc nd nf ng nh nj nk nl nm np nq nr ns nt nv nw nx nz pb pc pd pf pg ph pj pk pl pm pn pq pr ps pt pv pw px pz qb qc qd qf qg qh qj qk ql qm qn qp qr qs qt qv qw qx qz rb rc rd rf rg rh rj rk rl rm rn rp rq rs rt rv rw rx rz sb sc sd sf sg sh sj sk sl sm sn sp sq sr st sv sw sx sz tb tc td tf tg th tj tk tl tm tn tp tq tr ts tv tw tx tz vb vc vd vf vg vh vj vk vl vm vn vp vq vr vs vt vw vx vz wb wc wd wf wg wh wj wk wl wm wn wp wq wr ws wt wv wx wz xb xc xd xf xg xh xj xk xl xm xn xp xq xr xs xt xv xw xz zb zc zd zf zg zh zj zk zl zm zn zp zq zr zs zt zv zw zx
All possible combining non-spacing symbols* à á â ā a̅ ȧ ả å a̋ ǎ a̍ a̎ a̐ ȃ a̒ a̓ a̔ a̕ a̖ a̗ a̡ a̢ ạ a̦ a̧ ą a̫ a̭ a̮ a̱ a̲ a̳ a̴ a̵ a̶ a̷ a̸ a̾ a̿ aͅ a͆ a͇ a͈ a͔ a͕ a͖ a͗ a͘ a͙ a͚ a͛ a͜ a͝ a͞ a͟ a͠ a͢ a᳐ a᳑ a᳒ a᳔ a᳕ a᳖ a᳗ a᳘ a᳙ a᳚ a᳛ a᳜ a᳝ a᳞ a᳟ a᳠ a᳢ a᳣ a᳤ a᳥ a᳦ a᳧ a᳨ a᳭ a᳴ a᷄ a᷅ a᷆ a᷇ a᷈ a᷉ a᷊ a᷋ a᷌ a᷍ a᷼ a᷽ a⃐ a⃑ a⃒ a⃓ a⃔ a⃕ a⃖ a⃗ a⃘ a⃙ a⃚ a⃛ a⃜ a⃡ a⃥ a⃦ a⃧ a⃨ a⃩ a⃪ a⃫ a⃬ a⃭ a⃮ a⃯ a⃰ a𝅧 a𝅨 a𝅩 a𝅻 a𝅼 a𝅽 a𝅾 a𝅿 a𝆀 a𝆁 a𝆂 a𝆅 a𝆆 a𝆇 a𝆈 a𝆉 a𝆊 a𝆋 a𝆪 a𝆫 a𝆬 a︠ a︡ a︢ a︣ a︤ a︥ a︦ *turns out I made a mistake here and overestimated the number of symbols; the amount above is 148, not 171. That's 23 more symbols for assignment. I just threw some more symbols into the miscellaneous set below.
43 miscellaneous symbols ! $ % & * , . / : ; ? @ \ ^ ¡ ¢ £ ¥ § © ® ° ¶ · ¿ ß þ ſ ƿ γ δ ζ η λ μ ξ π φ χ ψ ω ‐ – — ‘ ” † ‰ ※ ‽ ⁂ ₤ ₱ ₽ ♀ ♂ ♯ ⚢ ⚣ ⚤ ⸺ ⸻ ꙮ
The Doubling Symbol which copies the glyph before it no matter what it is (ignores the CV->VC Flipper Symbol). Ж
...but the word counter in my Google doc says I fucked up somewhere, even after carefully cleaning and formatting the dataset and eliminating possible repeating symbols.
That's 138 extra symbols from somewhere.
Someone help please I am out of my mind.
I checked, if you don't count anything that goes after All English alphabet consonant pair combinations excluding double letters you get 4038 words. That means I got budget for 52 symbols. If I exclude the All possible combining non-spacing symbols and leave the 43 miscellaneous symbols + The Doubling Symbol, I will be left with uuuuh.
8
more.
Yeah so like, in result I can put at least 8 diacritic marks in there. The most frequent ones around the world.
8 diacritic marks â ā ä á à ă å ą
So basically there's this monogram neography creation method I got.
It consists solely of breaking down a complex symbol into smaller ones.
The number of final glyphs can be predicted by replacing the "x" in 2^x with the number of separate lines in the monogram.
This monogram above has a total of 12 parts. This means it can yield 4096 combinations.
That's a huge number, considering that English got 26 letters in its alphabet (excluding the apostrophe and diacritical variations of letters). It can fit the English alphabet 157 times, and there will still be some space left.
But there are some problems somewhat - the monogram here has some repeating lines, primarily the parallel ones. But that's fixable,
Just add some distinction ditty dots.
But still the question of filling it out remains open. Say I add the entire English alphabet. That's 26. Then all possible bi-letter combinations in it. That's 676, which combined with just the letters gives 702. Tri-letter combinations would be impossible, since they yield a number greater than the total sum of symbols possible (17576).
But that does leave us with 3394 symbols out of the total 4096. The only way I see this going is by adding new letters to English, but here's the thing - where to stop?
Theoretically I could fit all the possible letters in the extended Latin script probably, at least the ones in the most widespread alphabets.
But what if I go phonetic?
There's a total of 128 phonetic symbols available on Vulgarlang.com, combing all into pairs would yield a number above that of the total possible symbols (16384). But we can do one thing. Take all the consonants and multiply them by the vowels, and then again by two (impossible since 95x26 is 2660, and x2 yields 5320 which is greater than the total amount of glyphs possible). Which is a mathematical way of saying "create all possible combinations of vowels and consonants in CV pairs". So say we combine every consonant with every vowel - that's 2660. Plus 5 tonal indicators, that's 2665. Plus all the newly available superscript modifiers and all the phonetic articulation superscripts (160), that's 2825.
So to recount what we have: - All possible consonant-vowel combinations. - All phonetic symbols. - All phonetic secondary articulation symbols. And we still have 1271 symbols left.
What else can we do?
Let's add a functional symbol that flips the previous letter backwards. Say, turns /ʃʌ/ into /ʌʃ/. That leaves us with 1270 symbols - a round number, which is good.
For the fun of it how about we make 360 of them numerals? A base-360, which is one of quite notable anti-primes. It will be amazing for counting, and will include countless other numeral systems inside it wouldn't it? To write in decimal just use the numerals from 0 to 9. Also this base is like the Sumerian sexadecimal but multiplied by itself. A complete beast. Thus, 1270 - 360 = 910.
910 symbols left huh, well fuck me. Well let's consider this: let's add in all the vowels with tones applied. That'd be 28x5, thus, 140. 910 - 140 = 770.
Thus we added to the recount: - All vowels with 5 tones applied. - Base-360 numerals.
Next what. We still have 770 possible symbols left. ...Logographic?
Oookay. So let's consider this, we're just going to take the Swadesh list, maybe? Swadesh 207 list includes 207 words, five of which are numerals (from 1 to 5). If we exclude them, we get 202 words:

The Justice Department just can’t stop filing antitrust suits against Google. The initial public offering market is closed. Venture-capital…

If Apple Sees a Slowdown, What Does It Mean for Everyone Else?
If Apple Sees a Slowdown, What Does It Mean for Everyone Else?
Shares of the world’s largest technology company have slumped 17% this year, weighed down by a broad selloff in tech, driven by rising interest rates and inflation that promises to force consumers to cut back on spending. The vote of confidence from Warren Buffett, who touted Apple as a good bet in an inflationary environment because of the ease at which it can raise prices, hasn’t seemed to…
