Do you think you’ll ever get to writing a fic for the monster au? I’ve been thinking about it like a worm in my brain for weeks and I just want to hear more about the whole situation and dynamics like, are any of the characters “in” the cult? Do any of the characters interact in a casual way with one another? (like Mark and Adam or Thatcher and Evelin the ones that “don’t know eachother” yk?) do Dave and Thatcher still have that kind of “under the table vhs reviewer” dynamic? how much about the night Mark killed(?) Cesar does he remember is it like a blur or fully aware?
(I know this is a long ask srry 😭🙏 )
I am planning on making a prologue for the au, involving the night Mark went into the woods up to Cesar's death, but I haven't gotten around to it.
Also! those things will get answered, but probably by me just answering those questions before they get explained in a fic.

sorry @hinako-supremacy it got really long and i realized it needed to be its own post so here's my existential crisis ramble about jazz and pokemon
im listening to Carlos Eiene, aka insaneintherainmusic on yt, and his music makes me so nostalgic. he became popular for doing pokemon jazz covers (and a few other games like undertale) when he was in highschool and college. meanwhile i was in 6th grade when i found his channel and it changed my taste in music and me love swing and jazz to this day. in new years of 2022 he announced that he was gonna quit doing covers (after like 8 years of doing them) since copyright is a pain and he wanted to do his own original music and become a professional game composer too. i was really sad but also soooo proud cuz like??? his stuff is amazing??? and its like watching ur childhood friend fulfill their dreams and its so heartwarming. he released his first full original album and its called '' insane in the rain'', named after his channel asjhkhkdjfhsdakfh. i listened to one of the songs (same name as the album) and its a very uplifting song that really feels kinda like a "we did it. we finally made it and i couldn't be more proud" and when i heard it i wanted to cry dkjshfksdjhfk??? it captured exactly how it felt seeing him move on and realizing how much time had past. i finished middle school and high school and his music helped take me to where i am today. i was proud of him, but i was also proud of myself too!! we've both grown to reach the place we've always wanted to be. pokemon music inspired him to improve his skills and become a professional composer in the exact same way that pokemon inspired me to become both a graphic designer and videogame analyst!! and we couldn't have done it without pokemon!!
anyway i remembered this song this morning. and a few days ago, there was a commemorative video that showcased that we've hit 1000 pokemon!!! i think the two together really made me realize how much pokemon has been in my life. my birthday is in 2 weeks, which will roughly mark around 15 years since i first discovered pokemon. admittedly i was really young but i still remember watching the diamond/pearl anime on tv and being both amazed and confused since i didn't watch the episodes in order. so much has changed since then: ive grown attached to other games, got new hobbies and greatly improved in old ones, ive become a dad (/joking lol), and ive gotten rid of my gender. but nothing really changed at all. playing legends arceus on the switch felt the same as playing leafgreen on my GBA SP (aside from the obvious difference of actually being able to read). the desire to explore the world and catch them all is still there.
sometimes i wish i could meet my past self. i do occasionally wonder what they'd think of me. in highschool i used to think they'd be disappointed, but now? i think they'd like college Sumi. im studying art and videogames!! plus i never let go of who i used to be. i think kindergarten me would be proud, and i think im proud of them too. life is good and, for once, i think everything will be ok :)

I know it’s such a cliche thing to be saying right now, but it really DOES keep surprising me how dark it gets so early now that daylight’s savings is over.
I’m still not use to the sun going down any earlier than like 7pm cuz my brain’s still stuck in like, early September. And now it’s going down at 4:40pm.

BITES YOU/vpos caaaaannnnnnnnn i ask for laios x overstimed reader?:3 /nf!!!
Laios Touden x GN! Overstimulated Reader
Tumblr media
A/N: Okay so in terms of Overstimmed I wasn't sure if you meant in terms of autistic overstimulation or. Well, nsfw. Since I wanted to try writing something a lil smuttier I'll be making another post later today with a little nsfw blurb with this prompt ^^!
Tumblr media
Summary: Who knew the dungeons sounds and smells could be so overwhelming?
Tumblr media
Laios wasn't used to comforting others in the way you needed when a loud BANG! had gone off nearby leaving you shaking and tearful. When you'd shrunk in on yourself and gone silent, he was...terrified. Had something hurt you? Were you crying? So, he moved carefully infront of you, bending down just a bit to meet your eye level as it was cast downwards.
"Hey, are you alright?" Laios' tone was even and careful, reaching out a hand towards you but hesitating when you shrink back a little. When approaching a monster, if they do similar, it means fear. You must be afraid, he concluded.
Opening his arms wide, instead he offers you to approach when you're ready. As you move into his hold, Laios wraps around you, strong arms applying just a bit of pressure to you.
Laios let's you stay here as long as you need. Sometimes you just need to decompress and his strong hold on you helps you do that.
Tumblr media
Laios is very nice to use like a weighted blanket during the evening if you're coming down from being overstimulated. His arms are strong, his thighs are thick. In general, it's like having a hot water bottle for a boyfriend when he curls around you to keep you safe. If you need a tight hug? He can supply, although you may have to tell him to ease off when your bones start aching.

Reactions to The Unknown's Chapter 351
Brief summary: Game community users stuff. Cale heads to Earth 3 to find a game dev.
==========
I'm still unsure if we're still in the Aipotu arc or the New World arc now because we're suddenly going to Earth 3 in the next chapter. 😂
First part of the chapter discussed the various user communities centered on RPOG, like NC (New World Community), NF (New World Forum), and RU World (RPOG Users World), and their talk about the game update.
We got info about the 3 rankers who were known to have received the Emperor Quest: "War God" from China, "Water Witch" from Sweden, and the "Black Lion" from Arcea (Jungle Union). There was speculation that the countries of these 3 rankers were backing them.
Users also discussed that there might be more players hiding the fact that they got the quest, and were convinced that these players were those in the top 100.
But one user named "Chief of Staff of the Universe" warned about the repercussions of this quest in relation to the NPC kingdoms and nations already present. Players were considered foreigners by NPCs, so how would these NPCs react if these foreigners suddenly built their own kingdoms? After all, even the top 10 rankers were barely in the top 100 strongest list in the entire New World (NPCs + players).
Moving on, we had one last banter between Cale and Alberu. 😂😂😂
Cale: *talks about Alberu being a hero* Alberu: *feeling uncomfortable about becoming the hero* Cale: What, you don't want to do it? Alberu: You're such an annoying dongsaeng. Cale: Don't put too much meaning in names. Think of it as a means to an end. Alberu: *frowns* Cale: I'm sure His Highness must be thinking "This position doesn't fit me. I'm not cut out for it." Alberu: Irreverent bastard. Cale: I'm irreverent? But I'm an incredibly high-level villain in the game while you're a low-level newbie? *smiles* Alberu: … Alberu: *smiles brightly* Cale: !!! Cale: (No, that was a joke! Was he taking this seriously? Did he seriously become a game addict?) Cale: *hurriedly adds* And that villain mastermind works for His Highness. Haha! Alberu: Haha! Really! My dongsaeng's got a way with words. Cale: Right? Hahaha- 😅
20 hours before the game server opens, but Rosalyn reported to Cale that they encountered a problem with the portal. She and Sheritt had figured out a power source and a way to keep the portal open. But they did not know how to connect to the game. So she asked Cale for an expert in the game's systems, and said she needed it before the game update finished in 20 hours.
Cale decided to find a game company employee, or a former employee, who were at odds with Transparent Co, Ltd., to help them with the portal. And in order to find that person, they needed to head to Earth 3.
Thus, a quartet was born - Cale, Raon, Rosalyn, and Alberu. Rosalyn joined in because they planned for her to register as a regular user to assist Alberu in his Hero Quest. GoD opened a portal to Earth 3 for them.
Ending Remarks Well, they said they would "briefly" head to Earth 3 to find that expert/game dev before returning to the Black Castle which was still in Aipotu. But I feel like we're in the New World arc now... Next chapter would be the quartet in Earth 3. I guess they'd be surprising Ahn Roh Man with their sudden appearance. 😂 I'm also looking forward to the meeting between the two "Alberus".

OK;
So I gave the Netflix, avatar the last Airbender a second try. I took off my judgment goggles and looked at it as a brand new work of fiction. Now mind you my opinion means nothing, but I do have a certain level of emotional attachment to this intellectual property.
The live action show is very pretty, I love the costumes and I actually enjoy some of the characters. Keep in mind I’m only 20 minutes into the second episode. I’m a little busy these days. But I plan to make some time. I took down my original post where I called the show trash so that I could collect more data for my opinion.
Some grumbles;
The special effects are kind of wonky in places. I don’t care for Appa‘s hair. 😁
Some of the fight scenes actually have good kung fu in them. Hats off to the choreographer. However the connected CGI animations of the characters performing bending imho lack the basic essences of bending. The Airbender staff fighting had no “bending” at all.
The work we did on the original show came from a certain type of process, and none of those processes seem to exist in this current offering from Netflix…
I think if Bryan and Mike had stuck around on the project you may have seen some differences, but we will never know will we?
I may write more about this after I’ve seen the entire affair. I’m still a little upset about what NF did to cowboy bebop. Both of these shows had a certain “soul“ in the original animations, but that is one more element missing in these current efforts.Heck I know people that worked on NFATLAB that won’t even watch it.
In closing someone brought to my attention that some clown on Reddit called me an asshole.
Meh, I may very well be.
But your opinions are just like assholes, everybody’s got one 😜
(((i’ve had a Reddit account since 2008))
🙃

The benefits of yarrow tea in preventing menstrual cramps
A biochemical perspective
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Introduction
Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its wide range of therapeutic properties. One of the lesser-known benefits of yarrow is its effectiveness in preventing menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea) when consumed as a tea starting 10 days before menstruation. The bioactive compounds in yarrow interact with various biochemical pathways to exert anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and analgesic effects, which collectively contribute to its ability to reduce the severity of menstrual cramps.
Biochemical Composition of Yarrow
Yarrow is rich in several bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, alkaloids, sesquiterpene lactones, and essential oils such as chamazulene and cineole. These compounds are responsible for yarrow's pharmacological effects:
Flavonoids (apigenin, luteolin) possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, modulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Alkaloids contribute to the plant's antispasmodic activity by interacting with smooth muscle receptors.
Sesquiterpene lactones (achilline) have anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), a key regulator of inflammation.
Essential oils have various effects, including mild analgesic and anti-inflammatory actions.
Mechanisms of action in preventing menstrual cramps
Anti-inflammatory Effects
Menstrual cramps are often the result of excessive production of prostaglandins, particularly prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), in the uterine lining. PGF2α is a potent vasoconstrictor and stimulates uterine contractions, leading to the pain associated with dysmenorrhea.
Yarrow's flavonoids inhibit the synthesis of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins by downregulating cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), an enzyme responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. By reducing prostaglandin levels, yarrow helps to decrease the intensity of uterine contractions, thereby mitigating menstrual pain.
Antispasmodic Activity
The alkaloids and essential oils in yarrow exhibit antispasmodic effects by directly relaxing the smooth muscles of the uterus. This is achieved through the inhibition of calcium influx into muscle cells, which is necessary for muscle contraction. The reduction in intracellular calcium levels leads to muscle relaxation, thereby preventing the painful spasms commonly associated with menstrual cramps.
Modulation of the Endocannabinoid System
Recent research has shown that yarrow may interact with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a role in pain modulation and inflammation. The ECS consists of endocannabinoids, receptors (CB1 and CB2), and enzymes involved in their synthesis and degradation. Some of the sesquiterpene lactones in yarrow have been found to enhance the activity of CB1 receptors, which are primarily located in the central nervous system and are involved in the perception of pain.
By modulating the ECS, yarrow can increase the body's natural ability to manage pain, thereby providing relief from menstrual cramps.
Recommended Usage and Timing
For optimal prevention of menstrual cramps, it is recommended to start drinking yarrow tea 10 days before the expected onset of menstruation. This timing allows the bioactive compounds in yarrow to accumulate in the body and begin exerting their anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic effects. A typical dosage would be 1 to 2 cups of yarrow tea per day, prepared by steeping 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried yarrow flowers in boiling water for 10 minutes.
Conclusion
Yarrow tea is an effective natural remedy for preventing menstrual cramps, owing to its complex biochemical interactions that reduce inflammation, inhibit uterine muscle contractions, and modulate pain pathways. By starting the tea regimen 10 days before menstruation, individuals can significantly reduce the severity and discomfort of menstrual cramps. As always, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider before beginning any new herbal treatment, particularly for individuals with pre-existing conditions or those taking medications.

Not ship chart related but I think your art is so pretty!! Do you have any tips? Especially with coloring if it’s okay <] (/nf)
waah thank you very much! i'll try and explain but here’s my colouring-specific tips, or at least how i choose my colours !! <3
unless for stylistic reasons (e.g. greyscale drawing), i personally avoid pure black, greys and white for colouring. go and choose off-colours instead! for lineart, black is okay but i always go for an actual colour anyways heheh. for the background colour of your canvas, sometimes an actual colour (rather than white or grey) may help you pick your palette to be more harmonised!
Tumblr media
following this, i also don't like using pure/neon for colours, unless it's for a certain aesthetic or artstyle (e.g. the character has a "toxic/radioactive" aesthetic; the character is a scenedog (or similiar); or highlights). see below for examples! they may be subtle but sometimes the subtly can make the difference you are looking for... if you're looking for a natural look. if you're aiming for the bright/old 2000's artstyle, then pure/neons may be your friend!
Tumblr media
when i'm casually drawing characters (oc or not), i rarely colour-pick from the reference image. i find that when you're "forced to make the palette", it can come out more pleasing to your style/atmosphere of the drawing! it’s more personalised that way... like yea, that’s my favourite versions of those colours! i'm not saying that my colours are better though, only that "hey that's me! in those colours!!" you can have the reference image on the side or go by memory. here’s me doing this with pride flags:
Tumblr media
nowadays, when drawing the spooky month characters—who have simple designs god bless—i can just imagine their reference and adjust the colours in my head lol example: if i know that Lila's colour palette is purple, and that her winter sweater is coloured lighter than her hair, then i can just go ahead and pick whatever shade i want following that rule!
Tumblr media
(of course, always double check with the actual reference for physical design inaccuracies and skin tone if it applies. my advice above is just for general hair/clothing colours! …because yknow you don't want to accidentally whitewash a character's skin in the name of aesthetics lol. if you’re unsure and want to be on the careful side, please do colour pick the skin at least !!)
moving on... gradient maps and certain blending modes (like exclusion, luminosity and darken) can be a game changer too. for normal drawings (e.g. drawings with no environment), i use darken the most because it changes a few colours rather than the entire piece... (the percentages are opacity levels!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
oh and as a really basic shading tip without using blending modes: sometimes, you just gotta go for grey. shading a warmer colour? use grey to make a cool tone. shading a cool colour? use grey to make a warm tone. not all the time (because you don’t wanna make your shading seem muddy), just sometimes…
Tumblr media
and that's that! there's always exceptions to rules and often times, your headshot doodle ends up as one big experimental mess (in a fun way, hopefully)!
this is how i choose my colours though most of the time, it is just me going “good enough”
i think we're pretty similar on how we like warm colours! i enjoy going the simple/lazy route and avoid blend modes but then again, shading is a whole different thing…
hope this helps in any way !! <:3 !!! <3

A/n thank you for the kind words! Hope you like this. It’s messy I fear. I’m bad at writing smut IM SORRY. But I hope it’s good enough. I luv you too!!!! Also idk what your or you’re to use idc at this point.
Tumblr media
You had tried so hard, you really did but life with Otis isn’t always easy to cope with. That’s why you relapsed. Cutting was the only way you knew to get some relief from the pain. But you had promised Otis to stop it. That’s why you’ve been avoiding him and making excuses not to be touched on your upper arms. But tonight that would all change.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚ *ੈ✩‧₊˚
“Come here girl” Otis shouts downstairs. You quickly make your way to his room. “What is it?” You ask. “Take your shirt off.” He states. You freeze and try to think of an excuse fast. “I’m tired Otis I’m not in the mood for this I’m sorry.” You say. He walks closer and points his finger at you. “Take off your fucking shirt right fucking now!” He yells. Shaking your head in response you take a step back. Otis pulls his knife out and pulls you by your wrist. Before you could get away he cuts your shirt off your body. As it falls off you, you quickly cover your upper arms. “Otis stop!” You scream. “What did I fucking say about doing stupid shit like cutting yourself huh!? You want to feel fucking pain, huh bitch? Is that what you want?” He slaps you across your face. You fall to the floor letting your hands catch you. He crotches down to your level and holds your chin in his hand. “I know you haven’t been eating either. So not only did you not listen about cutting but you started to fuckin starve yourself. You dumb bitch.” He lets go of your chin. “I-I’m sorry Otis please I’m sorry.” You whimper out. Otis stands tall above you, looking down. “If I catch you cutting one more fucking time. One more time. I’ll skin you alive. Got it?” He says calmly. You nod your head as you start to silently cry at his threat. Otis lifts you up by one of your arms. He kisses you softly. “Stop fucking cryin. You’re fine.” He states while wiping away your tears. “I…thought you liked to see me cry.” You say in a shaky tone. He chuckles slightly. “I do mama but when I’m balls deep inside you.” He says with a smirk on his face. Your face turns a dark shade of pink. Otis leans down and kisses you roughly while bringing his hand up to your throat. Pressing just enough to make it hard to breathe. He backs you up until the back of your knees hit the bed, making you sit down. “Take off your underwear mama.” He states. You hesitate for a second but then do as he says, sliding them off. He starts to quickly take his jeans off along with his boxers. Your eyes widen, he’s already completely hard. Otis laughs when he sees your eyes widen. Pushing you down fully on the bed, crawling in between your legs. “You ready mama?” He whispers. You nod and let out a slight whimper. He lines himself up and slowly pushes in. You let out a small gasp, you don’t think you’ll ever get used to his length. Otis lets out a small groan. “You’re always so tight mama.” He says in a low voice. Then he bottoms out, staying still for a moment. Then he takes himself almost fully out before he slams back into you. You let out a loud whimper and he laughs. Keeping with his brutal pace. He’s hands go to grip your stomach. “Fuck girl you’ve lost to much weight, gotta get some meat on your fucking bones.” Otis whispers in your ear. You moan in response. That only makes him be rougher. Pounding into at an ungodly pace. “Fuck mama…feel so fucking good.” He growls. He doesn’t slow down. The sounds your bodies make filling the whole room. Whimpers, whines and moans. Otis pulls out and flips you over on your stomach. He grabs you roughly and easily slide back in continuing his brutal pace. “Otis! Too much wait!” You yelp. He doesn’t listen and goes even faster. You can feel the tears welling up in your eyes as the pleasure was just to much. “Fuck girl at this pace Imma cum in minute. God you are such a fucking slut, did you know that?” You whimper in response. When you don’t answer he grabs a fist full of your hair pulling your head back. “I asked you a god damn question bitch now answer!” He states. “Yes, yes I’m a slut yes!” You answer in a whiny voice. Otis laughs in response. “Otis I’m gonna…I can’t take it.” You whimper out. He grunts in response. “Cum for me mama.” He says in a husky voice. Otis uses one of his hands and starts to rub your sensitive bud. That sends you over the breaking point. He feels you tighten all around him, which makes his release follow quickly behind you. He lets both of you catch your breath before he slowly pulls out. You whine in response making him chuckle.

man I hate my meat suit so much sometimes. it’s so clumsy, it’s legs get so sore sometimes, it’s lungs can’t handle long strenuous exercise or even a brisk run/jog, it’s senses are both too strong and too weak… it doesn’t even look like how I’m supposed to look. it’s got boobs (no hate to boobs I’m just not supposed to have them (plus trans dysphoria goes brrrr)), it has the wrong ears, it has no fur or feathers or scales, it has the wrong shape and size… ugh.
is this what physical alterhumans think of when they think of their human body (talking specifically about non delusional physical alterhumans (no hate to them, I just don’t experience delusions so I can’t relate to them))?? I’m thinking I may be a physical nonhuman, but I know I have a human body, I just don’t identify with it at all, not on any level shape or form. it’s like having to wear a costume all the time—it’s not who I am, even though it’s how I appear to others. idk though!! physical alterhumans, please help! /nf

ophe when’s the alecody essay (HARD /J HERE LMFAO) /nf
As far as Alejandro ships go, Alecody is probably one of the most viable ones out there.
That's not to say it's the most viable, or the "best" Alejandro ship, because quite frankly I don't think there is such a thing as a "best ship", but from a purely canonical standpoint if Alejandro were to end up with any of his castmates, I'd say Cody would be a strong contender. Again, not the strongest, but also not entirely out of left field.
Which is mostly because he's one of the very few people in canon that Alejandro has A. interacted with more than once without issue, and B. not screwed over entirely to reach his goals. Not that Alejandro didn't screw Cody over - there are a few instances wherein Alejandro intentionally does something that directly affects Cody (most notably feeding Sierra's wedding delusions), but Alejandro doesn't do anything in terms of the competition at large that'll get Cody himself eliminated. In fact, he takes the finale tie breaker quite seriously; it's one of the few times Alejandro gets someone eliminated fairly, and Cody himself readily accepts that.
Cody's also one of the few characters who Alejandro has shown conditional kindness to, who actually survives said kindness without facing an elimination. Or without immediately contrasting that kindness with hostility behind his back (like he does with Owen and, to a lesser extent, Izzy), or using said kindness as the tool that'll get him eliminated (via flirting). That has to count for something, since Alejandro isn't the type to form friendships/aqquaintenceships that don't benefit him, and yet any sort of relationship with Cody is unbiasedly bereft of any notable benefits outside of the rapport itself.
The alliance he tries to secure with Cody is, objectively, entirely useless to Alejandro. He knows that Cody will only ever vote for Sierra, just like he knows that - out of the remaining four - Cody is the weakest contestant, and yet he still does his best to keep Cody on his side despite there being negligable benefits of him doing so.
So despite the fact that they had to duke it out in the tiebreaker, Alejandro and Cody have surprisingly little beef between them.
You could argue that Cody utilizing the nickname "Al" against him is indicitive of some resentment on his part, but I'd argue that Cody only really does that because he's a little shit (and rooting for Heather) and doesn't have the same level of resentment towards Alejandro that the majority of the cast harbours. If any at all, since Alejandro was nothing but cordial towards him.
So it's entirely plausible that Cody and Alejandro could meet each other outside the context of the competition - likely after All-stars, if we're going by strictly canonical guidelines - and spark a relationship from there.
Neither holds and lingering dislike for the other, and they've got a shared history of medical suffering under Total Drama they could bond over, and Cody's already seen Alejandro at his worst moments so Alejandro doesn't even have to live up to any false pretenses around him. Cody himself isn't the type to judge a person too harshly on their actions in the competition (which is backed by his canonical forgiveness and acceptance of Sierra despite her actions towards him) and would probably be thrilled to learn that the seemingly infalliable Alejandro he knew in Total Drama is, in fact, a giant nerd. (Just like him!)
I think the main factor that would hold this ship back would be Cody's inabily o recognis th at at hid cor e he little mome than a bxi eia; dis st t and Ale j a dn tro is evnrn mor so.
