#Hot Water Drinking

[badolmen]

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.

For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.

The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.

So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.

Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.

Apr 4: Riding Chinese high speed rail to my hometown. The rolling text on the screen reads "train's current speed: 347 km/hr" (roughly 215.6 mph)

Just 2 decades ago I would need to sit in a bus for 3 hrs just to get there, but now it only takes an hour.

Warning: I'm about to be real crazy about Wandee Goodday's eighth episode.

BECAUSE WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING WITH THE COLORS?!

I knew love was coming because of pink = 💕love💕 but they are framed in purple

Because their colors are purple and yellow!*

Yak's color is yellow.

Not brown.

YELLOW!

And Dee's color is purple

So why do I keep getting attacked by this damn blue!

It's purple, Dee!

It's yellow, Yak!

So why can y'all not get your shit together?!

Why am I seeing these fake colors?!

Why can we not figure this out?!

WHAT IS WITH THIS FUCKING BLUE?!

And that damn brown?!

Next week, Dee is going to call out Yak for not being himself.

And they are going to end up in a space that fits both of them

So after that, can we please stop with these fake colors?

Yak already said that he loves Dee, so it is about damn time for him to put on Yak's purple!

If the colors do not color the exact way I think they should, I will not enjoy this show any less because I am greatly enjoying it so far, but . . . either I see purple on Yak's body the next time they kiss on the lips or in the finale because if not, I'm going to turn into Miley Ray Cyrus and come in like a motherfucking wrecking ball to destroy EVERYTHING!

AHHHHHH!!!!!!

*I could be wrong. Their colors could be brown and blue. They could be bi-colored. Yeah, and Bojangles Bo-Berry Biscuit could not be the best biscuit that ever existed at any chicken joint. I'm always open to the possibility that I'm wrong about stuff. I don't think I have everything right all the time. I've been wrong before. This could be another instance of that. But if I'm wrong, then the whole team is wrong, and that seems . . . wrong.

We can't ALL be wrong?

An addition to the cocktail chapter of the @worldsbeyondpod Unofficial Cookbook:

Honey With A Note Of Song

an absinthe wash (the green fairy, for your roots)

2 oz. rye (your liquor of choice, strong and spicy)

1/4 oz. pine and rosemary honey syrup (you cannot go home again)

1 barspoon of saline solution (for your first divine smite, where you found your breath once more)

1-2 dashes of peychauds bitters (because this is a play on a sazerac)

a grapefruit twist (a touch of the bitterness age has brought you)

serve in a glass reminiscent of a chalice

Summer isn't Steve's favorite season.

He has always hated it. The sweat, the heat, the brightness. He'd rather have the coolness of fall, the leaves crunching as it finally falls.

There's a wet patch of sweat on his back, making his shirt press against his back. His only solace is the shade the tree provides for him, the rustle of the leaves against the wind reminds him of the summers spent as a child in the lake.

"Steve!"

When he opens his eyes, he sees Eddie laughing, hauling a basket of fruits. Eddie is the summer personified.

"I stole this from the kids." He snickers. The kids in question are playing, their shrieks of joy and excitement spreads with the wind.

Eddie sits crisscross beside him, opening the basket of oranges.

"Want one?"

Steve shrugs, pulling his glasses up to his hair to see him clearer as Eddie starts peeling the orange. First, the top, then the skin. One by one.

After fighting a silent war, it's been easier to find peace in the in betweens. There's peace in washing the dishes, in the painstaking task of mowing, in the noisy D&D games.

Eddie breaks the orange in half. He takes the first piece and offers it to Steve.

"Sweetheart?"

Eddie's smiling at him, whole eyes bright and fond. There's a wrinkle in his forehead, just above his eyes. The wind sweeps his hair, tied in a high bun. There's wisps of hair framing his face. He is smaller now than when Steve first met him, skin and bones turned into bait, his body still healing. His energy still radiates off him, like a ball of energy only Eddie Munson can possess.

With Eddie, there's always peace. There's no in between.

"Thank you." Steve finally says as he takes the slice and pops it in his mouth.

The first burst of flavor is sweet. Hundreds of tiny pulps dancing on his taste buds. There's a hint of tanginess in it, but it's only part of its charm. It's refreshing, perfect for the hot, sunny day.

Eddie watches every emotion on his face, "Good?"

Steve smiles. He smiles the best smile he think he has, lips curved upward, teeth gummy and wide and he thinks it's never going to be enough.

Not one smile will ever be enough to show Eddie just how happy Steve is to be with him.

"Good." Steve moves forward to leave a sticky kiss on his cheeks.

"EW!" Eddie laughs, it's loud, and crass, and wonderful. It's all the good things about summer, all bundled up together in one laugh. It's the cold water, the refreshing lemonade, the longer days.

Summer is Steve Harrington's favorite season.

Modern AU Machete keeps the local corner store afloat by buying their entire stock of lint rollers every so often.

Have you tried those white rabbit candies, by the way? Creamy, with rice paper wrapped around?

Hah, YES.

I have, in fact! They aren't widely sold here but some Asian grocery shops import them. The taste is delicious but it always kind of shocks me at first how hard they are, you just want to bite into them right away but you can't. Eating them is a very texturous experience.

The wrappers are gorgeous by the way, top tier packaging design.
