The first days of Boss Politics Antitrust

Picks and Shovels is a new, standalone technothriller starring Marty Hench, my two-fisted, hard-fighting, tech-scam-busting forensic accountant. You can pre-order it on my latest Kickstarter, which features a brilliant audiobook read by Wil Wheaton.

"Boss politics" are a feature of corrupt societies. When a society is dominated by self-dealing, corrupt institutions, strongman leaders can seize control by appealing to the public's fury and desperation. Then, the boss can selectively punish corrupt entities that oppose him, and since everyone is corrupt, these will be valid prosecutions.

In other words, it's possible to corruptly enforce the law against the guilty. This is just a matter of enforcement priorities: in a legitimate state, enforcers prioritize the wrongdoers who are harming the public the most. Under boss politics, priority is given to the corrupt entities that challenge the boss's power, without regard to whether these lawbreakers are the worst offenders. Meanwhile, worse wrongdoers walk free, provided that they line up behind the boss.

This is how Xi Jinping prosecuted his purges in the run up to his lifetime appointment as Party Secretary (2012-2015). Xi prosecuted the guilty, but not the most guilty. The public officials who were defenstrated and/or imprisoned during Xi's purges were all corrupt, but they were also the power base of Xi's rivals. Meanwhile, corrupt officials in Xi's own orbit were untouched:

Trump is a classic boss politician – that's what people mean when they call him "transactional": he doesn't act out of principle, he acts out of self interest. The people who give him the most get the most back from him. This means that Biden's brightest legacy – militant antitrust enforcement of a type not seen in generations – is now going to become "boss antitrust," where genuine monopolists are attacked under antitrust law, but only if they oppose Trump:

We're now living through the first days of boss antitrust. Remember all those monopolistic tech billionaires who donated millions of dollars to Trump's inauguration and arranged themselves in a decorative semicircle behind him on the dias? Trump just went to Davos to speak up for them, arguing that EU and other offshore prosecutions of these companies were attacks on "American businesses" and saying he would defend them with the full might of the US government (this is the same government that, under Biden, secured multiple convictions against these same companies for monopolistic conduct):

https://gizmodo.com/trump-returns-big-techs-ass-kissing-at-davos-2000554158

The Federal Trade Commission has lost its Biden-era chair, the extraordinary Lina Khan, who did more in four years than all her predecessors did in the preceding forty years, combined. The new chair is Republican Andrew Ferguson, whose first day on the job was a bloodbath, in which he killed off multiple, significant actions aimed at producing real, material benefits from Americans who are being absolutely screwed by corporations:

https://prospect.org/politics/2025-01-24-executive-action-reaction-day-4/

Ferguson killed off a public comment process on "surveillance pricing," where companies spy on you and then reprice their goods based on their estimation of how desperate you are:

https://pluralistic.net/2025/01/11/socialism-for-the-wealthy/#rugged-individualism-for-the-poor

Uber pioneered this when they started increasing the cost of cab rides for riders whose phone batteries were about to die. But other companies took it way further: McDonald's is co-owner of a company called Plexure that sells companies the ability to charge you more for your normal order at the drive-through if you've just been paid:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/06/05/your-price-named/#privacy-first-again

But surveillance pricing is even worse for workers than it is for shoppers. Nurses in the USA increasingly work for Uber-like nurse-on-demand apps like Shiftkey, Carerev and Shiftmed. These apps can buy nurses' financial data from the unregulated data-broker industry, and then offer nurses with overdue credit-card bills lower wages, on the grounds that they're so desperate they'll take a paycut:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/12/18/loose-flapping-ends/#luigi-has-a-point

Ferguson also killed off a notice-and-comment action on predatory pricing – when companies sell goods below cost in order to destroy competitors, then drive up prices. This is what Uber did, setting $31b of Saudi royal money on fire over 13 years, losing $0.41 on every dollar they brought in. This killed off all the regular taxis, and convinced city governments to abandon public transit investment on the grounds that Uber was cheaper than a bus. Once they'd captured the market, Uber doubled the price of a ride and halved the wages that they paid drivers.

So this is what Ferguson has killed off. In its place, Ferguson has instituted an internal action, aimed at rooting out "DEI" and "wokeness." The agency's top priority right now is running a snitch line where FTC officials can rat each other out for being anti-racist. This isn't just offensive, of course – it's also deeply unserious. Even if you stipulate that "woke" has some meaning (it doesn't, but go with me here), then killing off all the "woke" at the FTC will not make Americans more prosperous, let alone protect them from corporate predators.

In his dissenting statement, FTC Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya didn't mince words:

Andrew Ferguson could have made his first public act as Chairman a motion to study the rising cost of groceries. He could have acted on a pending public petition from a group of wall and ceiling contractors to investigate how lawbreaking contractors can effectively rig contract competitions in the commercial construction industry. He could have moved to investigate a pending public petition from shrimpers from Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama to investigate potentially false and misleading claims about shrimp imports from India that are farmed with forced labor and shot full of antibiotics…

I have met with corn growers and cattlemen in Iowa. I have met with shrimpers in Biloxi. I have met with pharmacists in Knoxville, grocers in Tulsa, and patients and their doctors in Charleston, West Virginia. I met with the men who build Miami’s million-dollar skyscrapers in 110-degree heat.

Let me tell you what they didn’t talk about: “DEI.”

What they do talk about is how powerful companies are skirting or abusing the law to force farmers, workers, and small businessmen to do what they want, when they want, or else. How the government isn’t doing anything about it. And how they’re going broke because of it

But Chairman Ferguson seems uninterested in the challenges that regular human beings face.

https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/bedoya-statement-emergency-motion.pdf

Bedoya is still hanging in there at the FTC; these administrative agency appointments outlast the presidents that made them. It's common for agency heads to step down when there's a changeover – Lina Khan didn't stay – but the commissioners often hang in there. I hope Bedoya stays at the FTC: he's one of the good ones and we're all better off for his presence.

There's one Biden agency head who hasn't left, and surprisingly, it's one of Biden's best appointees: Rohit Chopra, head of the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. Chopra is the first CFPB head to explore just how much power this new-ish agency has, and has seen his far-reaching, muscular regulations upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court.

Trump's corporate backers hate the CFPB, and Elon Musk really hates the CFBP, and crypto grifters really, really hate the CFPB. Ironically, the demonization of the CFPB seems to be the key to Chopra's enduring tenure. According to David Dayen at The American Prospect, no one in Trumpland wants his job. The Supreme Court ruled in 2020 that presidents can fire CFPB heads, but there's no one who wants to replace Chopra and take their turn in the barrel:

https://prospect.org/economy/2025-01-24-rohit-chopra-still-has-a-job/

Chopra's using his time well: he's brought a flurry of new actions, most lately against the credit bureau giant Transunion. And in the final weeks of the Biden administration, Chopra launched a whole boatload of enforcements, investigations, and other actions against the most predatory companies in America. As Dayen notes, over the past four years, Chopra has forced American rip-off businesses to pay back $6b in stolen loot, and to cough up more than $3.2b in fines.

Replacing Chopra is hard for Trump in part because Trump has imposed a federal hiring freeze. That means that anyone who replaces Chopra has to already be working for the US government, and all the finance grifters are cashing out of the government to go work for giant financial institutions they've been carrying water for while drawing a public salary. Even the people who might take the job can't, because then no one could be hired to do their job – for example, there's a ghoul at the FDIC who'd fit the bill, but if he takes over from Chopra, then the FDIC will have just two members. If the GOP stooge on the FCC quits to take the job, then the Democratic commissioners will have a majority. You love to see it, really.

But – as Dayen points out – they're almost certainly gonna give Chopra the axe eventually. When they do, the CFPB will continue to do some enforcements. It's likely that Ferguson will eventually direct the FTC to do something apart from peering under their beds looking for "woke." When they do take action, they'll probably take action against companies that are wildly, lavishly corrupt. After all, that describes basically all of American big business, a sector that has festered thanks to 40 years of antitrust negligence.

It will be tempting for Trump's opponents to decide that if Trump hates these giant, evil companies, well, then, they must be good. Think of when "progressives" fell in love with the "intelligence community" just because a couple spooks decided they hated Trump. The FBI isn't your friend, folks – this is the agency that tried to blackmail MLK into killing himself:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FBI%E2%80%93King_letter

The enemy of your enemy? Still your enemy, provided that they're a big, predatory monopolist. Boss politics is about punishing corruption – selectively. Trump-style antitrust is going to target a ton of bad businesses. That won't make them good.

"Careful," you say quietly, cautious in your tone. Jeongguk's eyes drop to his hands. Yours do the same. "Sounds a bit like you're confessing."

Well, no. It sounds exactly like that.

It is exactly like that.

But there's just something about it that gets your guard up for no good reason. You trust him, even if his sincere eyes are avoiding yours in this moment. Trust is not something that even comes into question with Jeongguk, not really. Has proven himself time and time again.

You're a product of your past, though.

He never expected this to be easy. Anticipated a little resistance, 'cause even though you're well aware of your self-worth, you always seem to feel undeserving of kindness.

He pulls one of the velvet scatter cushions to his lap, filling the space that typically belongs to you. Wishes he could pull you closer, but the physical distance is too great.

At opposite ends of the room, the separation hurts.

It's unlike you to not sit with him. It's unlike him to not insist that you do. All of this is so unlike your typical way of behaving with one another.

So long has been spent nurturing the careless comfort of your friendship that these new paradigms don't sit quite right—and nor does Jeongguk as he shuffles a little awkwardly in his seat.

"I sort of am," he finally admits, lifting his gaze to meet yours. He speaks quickly, 'cause he fears he won't speak at all, otherwise.

You sorta look at him like he just told you he's a furry, or some sort of underground criminal.

Confusion laces your features, and there's a slight gape to your glossy lips. Shock, perhaps—as if you weren't the one saying just how much you like him on the beach a couple of nights ago.

"It just says to 'admit your feelings'," he says of the bird. Swallows. Shrugs. Acts all indifferent. "So that's what I'm doing."

On a technicality, he's admitted no feelings—just made it known that he has some.

But he can have all sorts of feelings about all sorts of things.

For instance, he feels so incredibly fondly of the way you're absent-mindedly fiddling with the bird on the chain around your neck. 

Feels like his heart might explode. Like he might die.

"So admit them," you quietly encourage.

When he looks at you, it's like a thousand words are running through his head in just a single second. Declarations of adoration, safety, security.

And yet you're met with silence.

Perhaps the distance between you is too far. Too great.

So you minimise it.

Walk towards him. Find solace in the way his body just seems to react without his brain really engaging. The pillow he's been holding is tossed to the side as his arm outstretches a hand for you to hold. His now empty lap becomes the only place you want to be.

Funnily enough, it's right where he wants you, too. He encourages you onto his thighs. Pulls your waist to hike you up. Gets you positioned in a place that is far too promiscuous for such a pure moment—but it eases the tension. Reinforces the safety nurtured between you both.

It's better when you're together.

"I'm no good with words," he whispers, tepid as his nose nudges up against yours.

Eyes closing, the familiar sensation of his nose gently pushing into the space beside yours has you losing your breath.

"Then don't use your words," you offer. It's almost silent, but it doesn't matter. He hears. He always hears. "Show me."

There's a pause; momentary silence when the beating of your hearts drown out everything else. Just you and him. Quiet in place of confessions.

He tries not to alert you to the fact he licks his lips, but with his nose nestled so closely to yours, you feel the slight brush of his wet tongue.

Your hands are on either side of his throat, thumbs brushing over the sharp edge of his jaw. He's unsure if the subtle nod of your head is permission to close the gap, or just an excuse to stroke your nose up against his.

He waits. Hopes you'll press down against his parted lips. Grips your waist a little tighter.

"Remember what you said? How you could fuck me like you... " You whisper, not finishing the sentence. Now is no time to be dropping such heavy words. Not yet.

But he knows. Could fuck you like I love you.

"Yeah," he nods. Your lips brush. He thinks he might die. "I remember."

"Told you I'd be able to tell."

In fact, he thinks he might have already passed over.

Again, he nods. Lets his bottom lip catch on yours. Does nothing about it. Says, "You did."

"So fuck me how you feel about me," you quietly implore.

It's a stunted logic, you'll admit.

You started sleeping together to help you separate sex from intimacy, but it's becoming redundant. It's a little hard to keep them apart. Your heart's started throwing tantrums. Insists that you're supposed to feel intimacy with Jeongguk, regardless of the fucking.

You're not sure at which point it all changed.

Truthfully, you think it's always sort of been this way. You were just better at hiding it.

"Is that what you want?" Jeongguk asks, 'cause he's done this before.

Has fucked someone like he meant it, only for it to tear apart what he'd so carefully built.

Thing is, you built this mess of a castle together. If it crumbles, you'll both get caught in the rubble. Not just him.

He's not alone. Not in his feelings, nor in his desires.

It only makes sense that you should be together.

"It's what I want," you promise.

"Will you do it too?"

"Hm?"

"Will you fuck me how you feel about me?"

Part of you finds it hard to believe that he hasn't realised you've been fucking him like you adore him for months. Was accidental at first—until he showed up at your door with the stain of Hayun's lipstick on the back of his hand. Was deliberate that time.

Was direct, and desperate. Devastating.

"I never got over it," you shyly admit, then clarify, "Kissing, I mean. I never stopped thinking it was the most intimate thing in the world."

"You kiss me all the time."

"I kiss you all the time," you nod, tenderly pressing your lips into his for the featheriest of kisses. Double down your declaration. "Been fucking you like I mean it for a while, Gguk."

Months, he thinks, but doesn't verbalise. His tummy feels all funny; like he's on a rollercoaster with a drop that never comes. Just builds and builds. Higher and higher. Closer and closer to the heavens. He'd think about dying again, but he doesn't ever want to stop living in this moment.

"We're really bad at this whole 'just friends' thing," he laughs a little. Steals a frail kiss. Is delicate, so as to not break it.

Yep. Fuck it. Dying.

You shake your head. Giggle too, 'cause it half feels like you might cry.

"Or really good. Kept it up for a really long time."

And while Jeongguk is certain you are his best friend, he's also certain that he's in love with you. Has no interest in pretending like he isn't, even if he isn't brave enough to say the words just yet.

But he is brave enough to kiss you again.

Bold enough to start undressing you, pulling the shirt you're wearing over your head, barely parting from your lips as he does so.

Brazen enough to not give a fuck that you're in the sitting room as he unclasps your bra, lips still on yours as he begins to play with your chest.

"Like your tits way too much," he mumbles into your lips. Is smiling. You can feel it. "Was fucked the first time I held them. Game fuckin' over."

The admittance of his weakness comes as no surprise, but it's still nice to hear. Nice to know his attraction to you rewired his brain. Nice to think that maybe he's been grappling with his feelings for just as long as you've been with yours.

It's effortless, how Jeongguk stands and encourages your legs to wrap around his waist. Doesn't stop kissing you. Doesn't need to. Knows the way to your bed far better than any friend ever should.

But you aren't just friends, are you?

'Cause friends don't giggle their way into bed together.

No, friends don't touch you in the way that Jeongguk touches you.

Friends don't whimper into each other's mouths as they tease each other just right.

And friends definitely don't share oxygen through unfortified kisses as one of them brings the other to an orgasm within the space of a minute.

"Already?" He smirks, pressing down into your lips, fingers gently easing the pressure applied to your pussy.

"Fuck off," you simper with a pretty little giggle.

So cute, Jeongguk thinks—until he brings his fingers to your mouth, and then you're just straight-up hot as fuck.

The way his eyes drink you in is sin. You're like fine fuckin' whisky, and Jeongguk's been sober for months, or so it feels. Gets drunk off the scent alone. God forbid he tastes you. Might just lose his mind. Blackout. Forget everything other than the sensation of you.

Your essence is diluted by the time his tongue licks into your mouth in a flurry of messy kisses. Still divine, but far more manageable for him. Lets him at least retain a little agency as his hands roam. Lips, too. They never stray too far from yours, though.

'Cause kissing is intimate. He knows this to be true.

And Jeongguk wants that intimacy. Wants it with you .

"Can we just—" he husks, unable to finish his request thanks to the soft moan that escapes his pouty lips as he pushes his thick, hard cock into you for the first time.

You're tight around his length, the orgasm you've already had rendering your body in that post-euphoric way of being. You'll ease into it with every stroke of his cock inside you. Lord knows you're wet enough to make things easy for him.

Pressing his lips against your cheek, Jeongguk doesn't care to make sense.

He knows you. Knows your body. Knows that you know his.

Whatever needs to be said is done so through subtle tells—the barely-there movement of his weighty body on top of yours, the squeeze of your fingertips at the nape of his neck.

"Wanna— uh, fuck —just stay like this," he exhales. "Just for a moment."

You nod. Whimper. "Mhhm."

"Fuck," he sighs, letting his weight shift. He doesn't need to keep himself so composed. Just needs to exist. With you. Within you.

Your walls tighten, keeping him warm. Jeongguk whines into pressure, pressing his lips to whichever part of your face is closest. Jaw, cheeks, temples. He waits for your head to turn, and when it does, his lips find yours. Plush as they sink between yours, he's slow in the way he kisses you.

Jeongguk knows that as soon as he starts fucking you, that he'll finish in five-seconds-flat. There's too much going on inside his head for him to be able to control himself and his needs to make you his.

Your body is warm; your heart a furnace that is burning so brightly he might mistake it for a star.

"Feel so good," he mumbles, a hand squeezing at your chest while the other holds your wrists above your head. "How do you always feel this fuckin' good? Huh?"

"It's you," you whimper, pressing the weight of your body deeper down the bed. You want movement, you decide. Friction. To be fucked. "So big ," you praise. "Feels good 'cause you're so big."

"Mhmm?" He teases now. Presses his hips a little tighter to yours. Tries to not let himself get too eager. Too keen. "Fill your tight little cunt so well, don't I?"

But then your walls are squeezing again, and Jeongguk's scared he might just nut right then and there. You just feel so good, and you're warm, and you're safe, and so pretty, and—

" Fuck ," he curses sharply as he yanks himself away from you. Sits back on his heels. Stares down at your slick-covered pussy and has to hold back a whine. "Sorry."

Shaking your head, you bite down on your bottom lip. Hold out your hand. Wait for him to line his cock up, then stroke down his foreskin, gently massaging him.

In the midst of it all, he sort of forgets that you're owed confession. An explicit one, at least.

You're the only thing he can think about. Naturally, his thoughts flitter back and forth. Makes him consider saying something he can't take back—but he isn't ready for that yet. Doesn't think you are, either.

"Gonna take you out after this," he grunts instead, eyes focused on the fingers you've got loosely wrapped around his thick shaft. He's swathed in you; covered in the evidence of your pleasure. "You're gonna dress all pretty. All sparkly."

So focused on the handsome reddening of his hard cock, and the precum you're squeezing from his slit, you almost don't notice the needy little promises he's making.

It's been a while since you heard Jeongguk this pathetic—two whole days, to be exact—so you want to make the most of it.

"Where we gonna go?" you hum, pressing his cock down between your folds. There's no penetration, just the gentle rubbing of his cock against your cunt. It's about now that his hand takes over from you.

"Some overpriced, pretentious restaurant," he shrugs, eyes still on your pussy. He's getting deliberate with the massaging of his cock, now. Makes sure to focus in on your clit. Spreads his pre-cum all over it. "Everyone there is gonna wanna fuck you—but then they'll see me, and they'll know it's my fat cock that'll be fucking itself into you that night."

Jeongguk really needs to get a handle on this whole exhibitionism thing. Fears he'll be arrested by the end of the year for public indecency—but he's supposed to not get a boner? When you look the way you do? Smell the way you do? Are you? Impossible.

And he also knows it's impossible for you to see a bulge in his trousers and not think about getting to your knees, even when you're in public. It's terrible for you both.

Even more terrible is how fucking cute he thinks you are when you giggle at his neediness.

"Oh yeah?" You grin, squeezing at your own chest, thoroughly missing his large hands. It's never as good when it's you doing it. Never. Jeongguk agrees, but he fucking loves the visual. Loves watching you play with yourself. "And what will you be doing while your cock is busy fucking itself into me?"

Gripping his base, Jeongguk slaps the tip of his cock against your clit. Once, twice. Gets your back arching. He repeats. Again, again. Faster, faster.

Until suddenly the aching desire to be filled by him is remedied once more as he sinks himself into your soaked hole, and says, "Be busy telling you how pretty you look."

And he really thinks you are. Thinks your cheeks never look better than when they're flushed with the colour of his adoration. Builds the pace of his thrusts all to achieve that darling blush of yours.

"Tell me now," you beg through hushed moans.

"How pretty you look?"

"Mhmm," you nod, eyes closed. You're breathless as your shoulders push into the mattress, Jeongguk's speed getting you so much closer to heaven—and so you reward him by getting a little needy, too. Tease, "Gimmie that boyfriend experience. Let me try before I buy."

"Boyfriend," he smirks with a bashful shake of his head. Loosens his grip on your waist, his hands now pushing down into your pillows on either side of your head. The chain around his neck catches on your chin. "Would you like that, huh? Like it if I was your boyfriend? Huh? Like it if your boyfriend fucked your needy cunt like it deserves to be fucked?"

"Gguk—"

"I'd do it," he swears. Kisses you, then lets his nose find a home next to yours, cock thrusting so deeply you can't help but moan. "And then I'd tell you what a pretty girlfriend you are. Make you mine." His lips press down into yours. Whisper, "Gorgeous, aren't you? My gorgeous girl."

It's almost embarrassing how tight it gets you.

Even more embarrassing is how he notices it straight away.

"Oh, you do like that," he smirks. You whimper. His cock really is fucking itself into you like no tomorrow. Sweat gathers on Jeongguk's chest. Drips onto yours. It's disgusting. Vulgar. And you want more . Whine. Press your chest up to his. "Yeah? That's it, babe. Such a good girl for me. All mine."

"Not yours yet," you remind him through stifled breaths, as if you didn't basically sign the rights to your heart away on that very first origami bird. May as well have drawn a dotted line. Given him your signature. Sealed it with a glittery, glossy kiss.

"So fuckin' pedantic, B," he grins against your cheek. "If we were together—if you were my girlfriend —I'd kiss you just to shut you up."

It's been a while since you've been anyone's girlfriend. Been a while since you've even wanted that title. Thought it would strip you of your identity all over again—but you've never felt more yourself. Think that Jeongguk's Girlfriend would just be another pretty descriptor, like glittery or stubborn . Not a definer, like Disco Ball, or how it was when you were with Seokjin.

You're both getting ahead of yourselves. Pushing boundaries. Testing limits. Are well aware you haven't reached that stage quite yet, but are having fun with it regardless. Smiling. Giggling. Encouraging.

"If you were my boyfriend," you simper, "I'd let you."

Jeongguk's nose nudges up against yours. "But we're just friends, yeah?"

You reciprocate. "Best Friends."

Jeon Jeongguk thinks you were plucked from the midnight skies and put on this earth for one thing and one thing alone: for him to love.

So, he's unashamed as he whispers, "I'm gonna kiss you, B."

And while he's not your boyfriend, no, you still find yourself nodding as you say, "Please."

Firm as he presses his lips into yours, it's almost easy to forget you're having sex. Not because you can't feel him (quite the opposite), or because you're disinterested, but because your body burns like the heat of a thousand dying stars whenever he kisses you like this.

He's deliberate; lips tightly pressing down, the hard metal of his ring digging into your pout.

There's a softness to his moans; how they vibrate into your mouth and trickle down your throat like cocaine. The high will last so much longer. Be trapped in your system forever. You'll fail every drug test you'll ever take and Jeongguk will be there to apologise with even more narcotic kisses.

He adjusts slightly. Gets his knees on either side of your ass. Pulls back. Grips onto your waist, lifting your lower back and pulling you deeply onto his cock. He's quick as he spits down. Doesn't need any extra help getting you wet, but he just likes doing it. Especially likes how your dainty hands immediately come to rub his spittle against your clit.

Jeongguk grunts as he ruts into you. Nods. "Get yourself off."

Sort of funny, how he removes himself from the equation, as if it's not his cock inside you that's getting you all breathless. One of his hands squeezes at your breasts, enamoured with how they bounce for him. Pinches. Gets you gasping. "Gguk."

He mumbles a reply just in case, but is met with your breathy sighs, telling him his pace is just right. He continues pumping himself into you. Builds speed. Pace. Says, "Taking me so fucking well, baby. Gonna make me cum."

And yet it's you who comes undone first.

"Shit," he curses when he realises the quivering of your tight walls, and the pointing of your toes. Wants to reach it with you. Says, "Eyes on me, baby."

So often closed when you're riding your high, there's something about locking eyes with Jeongguk as you cum. The cataclysmic shudder of your muscles hits so much harder—and yet you can't look away. Not when your moans get so much more laboursome. Not when your legs begin to shake. Not when you begin to writhe so badly that he has to hold you extra tight in order to keep up his pace.

"Me too," he grits, as the sensation builds. "Where—" your legs lock around him to prevent him from finishing the question. " Fuck ."

His body grows a little weak. He's holding it off yet still fucking himself into you like his life depends on it.

"Cum, baby," you beg, all helpless and pathetic, hips continuing to rock up against his. You're riding out an orgasm that is taking hold of your entire body. The speed of your hand against your clit builds. Jeongguk tries to keep his eyes on you, but occasionally they drop to where euphoria blooms in his body. Can't help it. "Need you inside me."

Your moans get squeaky. Jeongguk's pace gets harder. Your walls are tighter, now. More sensitive. More receptive.

"Gguk," you whimper. Whine. Roll your back a little. "I think... Fuck . I'm gonna cum again."

It's been minutes— seconds —but you're overstimulated, and Jeongguk knows exactly how to work body. Spits, again, right down to where you're rubbing yourself.

He nods. Husks, "Me too. Like, half a minute. Keep touching yourself. Keep... Uh, fuck . Keep doing that, baby. Keep..."

You whine his name again. He nods. Takes over from you. Is careless with the precision of his teasing as he alternates between sensually rubbing your clit with flat fingers, and the short, sharp spanks he likes to deliver.

"Gguk..."

"I'm gonna cum, B," he promises. "With me, baby. I know you can do it. Cum on my cock, baby."

The sensation that travels through your body is familiar yet still foreign. Toes numb, it's something you can't control. You hear the change in your friction first; how fucking wet your cunt is as he fucks into it. "Jeongguk—"

Talking is a fruitless endeavour. You just end up whimpering.

The lewdness of the sound intensifies. So does the shaking of your leg. And so does the way you're squirting for him. Soaking that neat patch of hair that he keeps well-groomed for you; greeting the sweet little trail of hair that creeps up towards his belly button.

"That's it," he praises. "All over me. Fuck . You're so fucking hot. So fuh— Oh , fuck ."

He can't hold it off any longer. His balls are tight, chest too. His muscles aren't making things easy for him. He needs the release.

You know it's happening when his grunts get airy. Light.

"All of it," you beg. "Please, baby."

And then he can't fucking' control himself. Jolts his body forward, staggering a little bit as he shoots thick spurts of hot cum into you. It's endless . Ropes and ropes of sperm fill your pussy. Foolish, some would say. Perfect, others would declare.

You think you'd agree with them both.

But right now all you can think about is the way it feels as he slowly pulls out of you. The emptiness is cruel. The way his cum drips from your entrance is even more so.

All you want is to be filled by him permanently, but that's an incredibly dangerous desire.

"Fuck," he curses as he practically collapses beside you. Cares not for the clamminess of your skin as he pulls you in for a hug. Tangles his legs with yours. Kisses your hair. Breathlessly groans, "Tell me that isn't what it should be like. Tell me we aren't right for each other."

You don't.

Instead, you clasp his jaw and pull him in for so many kisses it's hard to discern there was once a time when this was prohibited. Forbidden. Are hungry in the way you devour his lips; lick your tongue into his mouth.

Desperation isn't a new trait of yours. You like the feeling of a little neediness, and the subsequent remedying of it. Have experienced it many times before Jeongguk, and many times with him.

But it's never really been like this.

Before, it's always been about proof. Confirmation that your partner wants you.

Now, it's about proving yourself. You need Jeongguk to know that you want him; that rejection need never be feared.

And you think you've done a well-enough job when he whispers, "I wanna be with you, B."

You both know the end goal. Are familiar with the concept of an endgame. Both fully intend on being one another's.

But there are different rules when it comes to relationships. New boundaries. Expectations.

Naively, you've always thought it was the lack of expectations that made you and Jeongguk work. Fear that alterations in these will change the very fabric of your 'friendship.'

Jeongguk shrugs into your sheets when you take a moment to consider his words. Rolls onto his back, both hands on his own chest. There's a subtle rise and fall to his chest; his lungs keeping him alive. He knows that's the mechanics of it all. A heart that beats. Veins that carry blood.

You find yourself missing his touch almost immediately; longing for a man who lays beside you. Pining for your parallel. Pulling on his arm closest to you, there's no resistance from Jeongguk as you tuck yourself beneath it, head resting on his chest.

Skin smooth, there's a musk to his scent in the wake of your sex. Part of you wishes you could just bottle it up and wear it like perfume. Think there's no greater blessing for a nose than Jeon Jeongguk. Cherries are nice, and cotton is always favourable, but they'll never match him. Not ever.

"We'll never know if we don't try," Jeongguk softly hums when you fail to articulate a response, the tips of his fingers stroking down your arm. There's a vulnerability to his big brown eyes, and the way they're focusing on the movements of hands. "But I can't keep this up if I can't have you."

"What do you mean?"

His eyes flicker down to yours ever so briefly.

"I like things as they are," he admits. Tries not to think too hard. Doesn't wanna trip up on his words. "I like how much time we spend together, the things we do. I'm not asking for things to change, hugely. Just wanna hold your hand in public. Shit like that."

He also wants to wear a satin fucking sash that reads 'I'm dating my best friend. Back off.' for the entire world to see, but thinks that might be a bit much.

"Well, maybe things should change," you suggest.

"In what way?"

"Maybe we should date," you say. " Properly . Maybe we should start at zero and work our way up. It's too comfortable otherwise, isn't it?"

"Is comfortable not good?" He grumbles into your crown, as if he's not the one holding you close. He can play offended all he likes, but you know it's just a ruse.

"It is," you admit, lips brushing the firm muscles of his chest as you speak. "I'm just scared we'll get it wrong. Don't wanna lose this, Gguk."

"Well, I don't wanna lose it either," he says, punctuating his statement with a tiny kiss in your hair. "If we're agreed, then there's no issue, surely?"

Surely . Things will work out, surely .

But you've been sure of things in the past that haven't ended well. Once were sure of Seokjin, just like Jeongguk once was sure of Hayun.

You're not drawing comparisons, but you are painfully aware of how much sex can fool you into thinking things are as they're supposed to be.

He lets you slip from his grip and welcomes you onto his lap as you change your position.

Straddling across him, you're not shy as you sink your chest down. A hand keeps you supported by his head as the other finds its home at the base of his neck. You're met with a kiss as soon as you bring yourself close enough, your loose hair tickling at his cheeks.

There's a subtle grind to your hips. One that he's encouraging.

"Take me out," you mumble into his lips. "On a date. Take me on a date."

"Yeah?" He questions. Ruts his hips up against you. Neither of you are ready to go again, but both of you like to toy with the idea of it.

"Yeah," you say, pulling back. Get his eyes on yours. "We'll do it old school. Five date rule."

Now, if you were thinking with much logic, you'd have said 'three date rule', 'cause how the fuck you'll go for that long without shagging Jeongguk is a conundrum you don't want to solve.

"Five..." he husks, kissing down your throat. Raises your body slightly with the encouragement of his strong hands. Gets your chest in his face, right where wants it. Latches onto your nipple and sucks it into his mouth. Moans, as you grip onto your headboard with a wanton sigh. He shakes his head. Manipulates your body. Sucks harder. Releases you, then says, "I can't do five dates without fucking you."

"You can," you promise as he manoeuvres to get your other tit in his mouth. Whine, before saying, "Five dates is nothing."

Even you don't believe that—but are too distracted by Jeongguk reaching down to rub small circles on your pussy to give it too much thought.

"Fuck," you whine.

"See," he mumbles against the soft skin of your boobs, slowly licking around your hardened bud. "You'll die if you can't fuck me."

Truthfully, he's the one most likely to suffer from that fate.

His seduction is working, though. When he's like this, you know you'll fold—so you pull back. Grab his hands and clasp them together on his chest. Are greeted with the sweetest, cheekiest smile. He knows he's been caught out.

"I'll be fine," you laugh, sharing your smile with him. "But I won't be fine if I'm naked around you all the time."

"You should be naked around me all the time."

"I'm sure Jimin would love that," you joke sarcastically.

"Let's face it, B, he probably would."

"Shut up," you say, rolling your eyes, smile ever present, then get back to the topic at hand. "Date me without the sex. It's important. We might find out we're not compatible."

"If we're not compatible then what the fuck are?" He laughs, a little disbelieving that a scenario like that could ever exist.

"Dunno," you shrug. "Horny?"

"True."

"Five dates," you reinforce, clambering off him, leaving a cute little trail of excitement on his tummy.

The air chills it quickly, but Jeongguk loves the way it feels. Always used to insist on showers straight away after sex with previous partners, but never feels inclined with you. Wants to wear your sex like a badge of honour. Something primal, he's sure. Wants your pheromones on him. Wants other men to stay the fuck away. Wants you his.

Pulling his shirt over your frame and hiding away the body that Jeongguk just seems to go feral for, you're a little sad to be drawing a line in the sand. It's reinforced when you grab a fresh pair of underwear that you already know will be ruined by the current state of your pussy, but needs must.

Taking a seat by your desk, you pull your knee up to your chin, your foot on the pad of your chair.

"This all started 'cause I needed to separate intimacy from sex," you remind him. "But we've had, like, a lot of sex—"

"Really good sex."

"A lot of really good sex," you grin, nodding, stars in your eyes. On your cheeks. In your heart.

You're about to continue your reasoning, but there's no need. Jeongguk's being a little difficult, but he understands. He knows why this is important. Why it's needed.

He sits up on his elbows, torso cutely creasing. Knocks his head to the side, undone hair falling over his eyes before he shakes it away. "Alright. Let's do this."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah," he nods. "Date me."

"Ask nicely."

Jeongguk pauses for a moment. Rolls his eyes with a fond smile. Nods toward his jeans that are crumpled up beside your bed. Says, "Back pocket."

Narrowing your eyes, his grin prevails as you follow his command. There's an intimacy with him telling you to rummage through his clothes. No secrets hidden.

None, except the writing inscribed on the tiny bird Jeongguk had crafted that very morning.

A bemused smile settles on your lips as you pull it from the denim, brow cocked, curiosity being projected towards him.

And so he just says, "Read it."

Though he might be a hell of a lot braver than he was when you first met, there are still things that make him sweat. Sometimes, it helps to have a hand to hold, or a bird to do your dirty work. He uses them as crutches. They hold up words he wishes to say but isn't sure he has the voice to articulate them.

Slow as you unfold it, you take just a glance before you recognise the paper.

"When did you—"

"Just open it, Byeol."

You shouldn't be nervous. Not really. You've opened up so many birds by this point that it shouldn't even concern you.

Things are changing, though. The fears you once faced thanks to the birds have been overwritten. The things that scare you now are not of what you could gain, but of what you could lose, instead.

And that just feels far more daunting.

Still, you do as he says. Slow with the movements of your fingers, your eyes don't leave his. There's anticipation on his expression; cosmic eyes wide, bottom lip tightly tucked beneath his teeth.

As you look back across to him—naked beneath your sheets, and everything you've ever wanted—you can't help but feel smitten. Luck has evaded you in recent years, until Jeongguk waltzed into your life like a triple seven.

"Was always gonna ask you out," he mumbles, fighting the smile that wants to shine like a full moon. Gives in. "Dumbass."

The way you smile towards him is shy. Tiny paper bird still in hand, you clamber back into the bed with him. Get yourself in the exact same position you'd just left. Sink into a thousand kisses. Because you want to. Because you can.

"Can't believe you're actually asking me on a date. So weird. Gross."

It'd be believable, if you weren't giggling.

Would be even more convincing, if you weren't showering him with so many kisses he might die—but also knows he'll perish if you ever stop.

"Disgusting isn't it?" he says during a small pause in kisses, but his question remains unanswered, for your lips find his once more. Tongue. Teeth. All consuming. God, he'll never tire of this. He does, however, teasingly say, "Thought you said we gotta wait five dates?"

It's a question he'll grow to regret incredibly soon. One final kiss is planted on his cheek, before you pull away to give him space—but he immediately drags you back. Doesn't kiss you. Just nudges his nose up against yours.

"Never wanted anyone like this before, B," he husks. The light, playfulness of his flirt is replaced with something far weightier, and now you really do want to kiss him. Not floaty, or feathery like how you were, but deep and cumbersome; complex in your silent confessions. "Five date rule is fine. I'll wait."

"Gonna miss you," you mumble into his lips.

"Gonna miss you more," he promises. "But you're right. Trial run makes sense."

Foolishly, you both agree that if you are to find yourselves romantically incompatible, not having sex during the dates will somehow magically save the friendship—as if it's not already utterly destroyed and rebuilt with the necessity of sex.

It's not a bad thing. Not in the slightest. It's also not the only component, but it is how you connect. 

Physical touch. Quality time. Acts of service. Words of affirmation. Gift giving. The love languages are all wrapped up into the way in which you fuck one another. S'why it was foolish for you to ever think you wouldn't fall for one another.

It's curious to consider if you would have reached this stage had it not been for the sex, but it also doesn't matter. What if's and alternate realities are meaningless, for this is your reality. 

This is what matters. You. Him. Now. Nothing else.

You were a shooting star that very first night in Dionysus, and Jeongguk was making wishes.

Took a little time to reach fruition, but it's kinda his fault for not being specific with his desires. For shunning them. Shutting them down. The universe still worked her magic, regardless.

Because in every reality there is one constant: Jeongguk falls in love with a star.

And in this reality, his star falls in love with him, too.

Mind you, he did make a mistake. You were never a shooting star.

You were a falling one.

Landed right where you were meant to.

It's agreed that one final shower shall be taken. One last chance to belong to each other, before you can accurately say that you do . One final time for things to be as they were. As they have been.

Pressed to the titles, bodies wet, hair sticking to skin and no care given for the actual process of showering, you don't stop kissing him. His evident arousal is ignored, and he makes no exploration of your body.

Maybe it's a waste. You're giving one another a mutually exclusive hook-up hall pass before it's revoked, and yet neither of you wish to leave the safety of sweet innocence.

It's so stupid, you think, how you can't resist one another. Weak-willed. You're so turned on that you're quite literally dripping. Are convinced that you'd come undone with even just a soft stroke of his thumbs across your hardened nipples.

Still, Jeongguk only kisses you.

Wraps you up in a towel once the water is cut off. Laughs with you about nonsense as he delays his departure from your apartment. Knows he can't stay, 'cause all he wants is to let his feelings manifest physically.

But there's a five date rule.

He's gotta get on with it.

"So..." He elongates his hesitation as he stands by your apartment door. Hands in his pockets, he shuffles a little nervously.

"So," you reply, just to be annoying. Dressed in your own clothes for once, neither of you really wants to say goodbye.

Jeongguk knows it will be easier if he has guaranteed 'hello' lined up.

"Pick you up at seven?"

"Seven," you nod, trying to be coy. To play it cool. To act as if the glitter on your skin isn't the only part of you that's sparkly.

Your heart is shining. Feels brand new. Polished to perfection by a pair of tattooed hands, kissed back to life by pretty pink lips and an equally shiny lip ring.

"It's a date," he nods, then turns to walk away, 'cause he's trying to play it cool, too, and knows as soon as he can, he'll be giggling to himself.

You let him go. Don't call him back for any stupid remarks, or idiotic giggles. Just press your door shut as soon as he's out of vision and wait.

One, two, three, four... and then you can't hold it in any longer. You have to squeal. Run on the spot, happy hands clapping together with zero control from your brain. You're a delirious mess of smiles and sunshine—quite the change to your usual starry self.

It's so stupid, being like this. It's just Jeongguk.

But that's exactly why it's so exciting: It's Jeongguk .

You're going on a date with Jeon fucking Jeongguk.

Oh, it's so ridiculous.

Ridiculous, and exciting, and stupid. Fated, and futile, and fantastic all at the same time.

A giddy excitement takes hold of you, like you've just scored tickets for the Era's tour, or scratched off a winning lucky draw. You think your heart might stop at one point. Have to lie down. Decide that the middle of the living room floor is the best place for it.

"Holy shit," you whisper, eyes on the empty white ceiling above you.

The nothingness makes way for projection; memories of him playing out in front of you. The subtle raise of his lips—left side first, then the right as it evens out—when he smirks. How his lip ring flips. Does the thing. The pressure of his aforementioned ring as he ghosts his lip across your skin.

But then you're thinking of Dionysus; how his eyes shine even in the dark. That first peek of his snake tattoo escaping his sleeve. How badly you wanted to see the whole thing. How much shock you'd been in seeing him shirtless for the first time.

Strange to think you've traced fingers up it now. Gotten glitter in the fine lines. Have kissed every single evidence of ink on his skin; every single freckle, too.

So maybe it is silly to chalk this up as just a date with your best friend.

He's many things to you. A confidant. A shoulder to cry on. A hand to hold. A lover. Someone with whom to banter, and someone with whom to silently exist. He wears many hats in this friendship with you.

Rolling onto your front, you're feline in the way your arms outstretch. The flooring is hardwood, and uncomfortable, but you enjoy the complexities of feeling it against your bones. Head tilting to rest on your upper arm, you don't bother to move when you hear the code being tapped in for your apartment.

"What's wrong with the sofa?" Danbi asks as she tosses her bag down. Had only gone to Taehyung's for a few hours before he needed to get on with some work for his upcoming show.

"Was stretching," you lie, though you really do need to click your back. Jeongguk's fault.

Danbi has a vague understanding of the birds. Has never been told about them in any explicit nature, but you're girls. You talk. Share.

And so you simply nod towards the tiny one left by Jeongguk. Are certain that he wouldn't mind you sharing it with her. You don't offer up any additional explanation.

She reads it aloud without much thought. "Ask B on a... Oh my god."

"Yep."

"Jeongguk?!"

"Yep."

"A DATE?!"

"Oh my God!"

"I KNOW!"

"When?!"

"Tonight—"

"Tonight?!" She almost cries. "What time?"

"Seven—"

"Holy shit, get off the floor woman!" Danbi laughs. "It's already six!"

"Oh, balls."

The afternoon had gotten away with you, time with Jeongguk moving at rapid speed. It always does. Too much is never enough, or so it would seem.

When he'd suggested seven, you'd blindly agreed. Asked for no details. Was only really thinking about seeing him again.

"Where are you going?"

"Don't know."

"What are you doing?"

"...Don't know."

"Dress code?"

"Not given."

"Oh my God," she laughs. Comes to stand by you and taps you with her foot. "Okay, to your bedroom. Let's find you an outfit. You don't need to impress him 'cause I've never seen anyone so deliriously in denial about their feelings, but you should still look nice."

Narrowing your eyes, you're fighting a smile. Can't really help it. Is sort of validating, hearing Danbi say stuff like that, now you know it to be true.

"I wasn't planning on looking like shit," you assure her, rolling over and getting to your feet with far less grace than your pole instructor would be happy with.

"Well yeah, but you guys are SO comfortable with one another," she calls back from your room. "It's easy to forget it's a first date. To the nines, or not at all."

Easy, you think. Dress to the nines for your triple seven boy.

" Reeks of sex," Danbi grimaces, pushing your bedroom window open. "You two are animals , I swear to God."

"Oh fuck off," you laugh, all loopy in the way you smile and flop onto your bed, regardless of the fact you know pulling the duvet back would reveal just how fucking disgusting you and Jeongguk can be—but it's human . It's you, and it's him, and it's what you were made for. "You're just as bad."

But what's so 'bad' about intimacy? Belonging?

You'll tease each other endlessly, but realistically, all you are is happy for one another.

"Not the point," she grins, rummaging through the hangers on your clothing rail, tossing options over to you. "Text him. Get a dress code."

"But I—"

"Shut up," she laughs. "Don't act all nervous, you idiot. It's just Jeongguk. He won't care that you're texting him."

And yet nervous is all you are by the time seven rolls around, and a knock sounds at your door. Danbi hides behind the sofa. You panic for a moment. She shoos you to the door.

It's funny, how as soon as your eyes lock with his, all of that just seems to melt away.

"Hey," you smile.

He nods. Bites down on his bottom lip.

"Hey, B."

How to Protect Your WordPress Site from Malware or Hackers?

WordPress is used by millions of websites for blogs, businesses, and online stores. However, because it’s so popular, it’s often a target for hackers and malware. If you have a WordPress site, it’s important to take steps to keep it secure. Here’s a simple guide to help you protect your site from hackers and malware.

How to Protect WordPress Site from Malware or Hackers?

Follow this step list given below to protect WordPress site from malware or hackers

1. Always Keep WordPress Updated

WordPress regularly releases updates to fix bugs and improve security. Hackers often look for websites running old versions of WordPress or outdated plugins, so keeping everything updated helps keep them out.

How to Update:

Check for updates in your WordPress dashboard regularly.

Go to the Dashboard > Updates section and install any available updates for WordPress core, themes, or plugins.

By staying updated, you’re less likely to have security holes in your site that hackers can use.

2. Use Strong Passwords and Change Them Often

Hackers can easily guess weak passwords like "123456" or "admin." To keep your site safe, use strong, unique passwords and change them every few months.

Tips for Strong Passwords:

Use a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

Don’t use simple information like your name or "admin."

Consider using a password manager to create and store complex passwords securely.

Strong passwords are one of the simplest ways to add security to your website.

3. Limit Login Attempts

Hackers often try to break into websites by guessing the login password over and over. You can protect your site by limiting the number of login attempts a person (or bot) can make.

How to Limit Login Attempts:

Use plugins like Limit Login Attempts Reloaded or WP Limit Login Attempts.

These plugins lock out users after a certain number of failed login attempts.

This makes it much harder for hackers to keep guessing passwords.

4. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds another layer of security. In addition to entering your password, you’ll also need to input a code sent to your phone or email. Even if someone knows your password, they won’t be able to log in without this extra code.

How to Set Up 2FA:

Install a plugin like Google Authenticator or Two-Factor.

Set it up by scanning a QR code and linking your account to an app like Google Authenticator or Authy.

This ensures that only you can access your site, even if someone steals your password.

5. Use a Security Plugin

A security plugin can protect your WordPress site from different types of attacks, like malware or brute force attempts. These plugins act as your site’s security guard, offering tools like firewalls and malware scanning.

Recommended Security Plugins:

Wordfence Security: Includes a firewall and real-time monitoring.

Sucuri Security: Provides malware removal and a website firewall.

iThemes Security: Offers brute force protection, backups, and two-factor authentication.

Using a security plugin adds strong layers of protection against hackers.

6. Back Up Your Website Regularly

Even with good security, things can sometimes go wrong. That’s why it’s important to back up your site regularly. If your site gets hacked, a backup will let you restore everything quickly without losing important data.

How to Back Up Your Website:

Use backup plugins like UpdraftPlus or BackupBuddy.

Store your backups in safe places like Google Drive, Dropbox, or a remote server.

Schedule backups daily or weekly, depending on how often you update your site.

Regular backups help ensure you won’t lose everything if something goes wrong.

7. Choose a Secure Hosting Provider

Your web hosting service plays an important role in your website’s security. Some hosts offer strong security features that help protect your site. Make sure to choose a hosting provider that values security.

What to Look for in a Hosting Provider:

Regular backups

Malware scanning and removal

Firewalls

SSL certificates

DDoS protection

Popular and secure WordPress hosting services include SiteGround, Bluehost, and WP Engine.

8. Use HTTPS and SSL Certificates

SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encrypts the data between your website and your visitors. This protects sensitive information, like passwords or credit card numbers. Websites with SSL certificates also have a secure URL that starts with "https://."

How to Install an SSL Certificate:

Most hosting providers offer free SSL certificates with Let’s Encrypt.

You can use plugins like Really Simple SSL to set it up quickly.

SSL certificates keep sensitive data safe and make your site more trustworthy.

9. Remove Unused Themes and Plugins

Unused plugins and themes can create security risks, especially if they aren’t updated. Even if they’re deactivated, they can still be a weak point. It’s best to delete any plugins or themes you don’t use.

How to Delete Unused Themes/Plugins:

Go to your Dashboard > Plugins or Appearance > Themes.

Deactivate and delete anything you no longer need.

This reduces the number of places where hackers might try to get in.

10. Monitor Your Site for Suspicious Activity

It’s important to keep an eye on your site for any unusual behavior. This could include sudden spikes in traffic, unknown files appearing on your server, or unauthorized users trying to log in.

How to Monitor Your Site:

Use a security plugin to track things like failed login attempts and changes to important files.

Regularly check your hosting account for unusual activity.

Review your website users to make sure no unauthorized accounts have been added.

By staying alert, you can catch potential threats before they do any serious damage.

Conclusion

Protecting your WordPress site doesn’t have to be difficult. By following these simple steps—keeping WordPress updated, using strong passwords, installing security plugins, and making regular backups—you can greatly reduce the risk of your site being hacked or infected with malware.

Best Material for Your Outdoor Gazebo - Types of Gazebo

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about choosing the best material for your outdoor gazebo. We’ll compare popular options like wood and vinyl, explore the pros and cons of different gazebo roof materials, and provide maintenance tips to help you make the most informed decision.

Types of Gazebos

Portable Gazebos

Portable gazebos are designed for ease of assembly and transport. These typically withstand wind speeds of 20-40 mph (Beaufort scale 4 to 5). They are best used in mild weather conditions and should be secured with anchors and weights.

Hardtop Gazebos

Hardtop gazebos, made with more robust materials like metal or polycarbonate, offer better wind resistance. They can withstand wind speeds of 50-80 mph (Beaufort scale 6 to 9). These are suitable for areas with moderate to high wind exposure.

Heavy-Duty Gazebos

Heavy-duty gazebos are designed for long-term use and can withstand wind speeds up to 100 mph (Beaufort scale 10). These structures often use industrial-grade materials and are ideal for commercial events or areas with frequent strong winds.

Understanding the Importance of Choosing the Right Gazebo Material

The material of your gazebo plays a significant role in determining its longevity, appearance, and maintenance needs. Your choice should align with your aesthetic preferences, climate conditions, and budget. Whether you want a classic wooden gazebo that blends seamlessly with nature or a low-maintenance vinyl gazebo option, understanding the characteristics of each material is key.

Wood Gazebos: Timeless Beauty and Natural Appeal

https://gazebohouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Untitled-design-2024-08-23T081859.474.webp

Pros:

Aesthetic Appeal: Wood gazebos are celebrated for their natural beauty. They blend harmoniously with outdoor surroundings and can be customized with various stains or paints to match your style.

Customizability: Wood is easy to work with, allowing for intricate designs and custom features that can make your gazebo truly unique.

Cons:

Maintenance: Wood requires regular upkeep to prevent warping, rotting, or insect damage. This includes sealing, staining, and occasionally replacing damaged parts.

Weather Susceptibility: Without proper maintenance, wood can deteriorate quickly due to exposure to the elements.

Cost: Medium to High – Wood gazebos tend to be more expensive initially and over time due to maintenance costs.

Vinyl Gazebos: Low Maintenance and Modern Design

Pros:

Durability: Vinyl gazebos is resistant to rot, insects, and weather-related damage, making it a long-lasting option for outdoor structures.

Low Maintenance: Unlike wood, vinyl does not require regular painting or staining. It can be easily cleaned with soap and water.

Consistent Appearance: Vinyl maintains its color and appearance over time, with minimal fading or wear.

Cons:

Limited Customization: Vinyl gazebos offer fewer customization options compared to wood. They come in pre-designed styles and colors.

Aesthetic: While vinyl can mimic the look of wood, it may not have the same natural feel, which could be a drawback for those seeking a rustic appearance.

Cost: Medium – While the upfront cost of a vinyl gazebo can be higher, the lack of maintenance costs makes it a cost-effective choice in the long run.

Wood vs. Vinyl Gazebos: Which Is Better?

Choosing between a wood and vinyl gazebo depends on your priorities. If you value aesthetics and don’t mind the upkeep, a wood gazebo offers timeless beauty. However, if you’re looking for a low-maintenance, durable option, a vinyl gazebo might be the better choice. Both materials have their own advantages, and the decision should be based on your specific needs and the climate in your area.

Cost-Effective Gazebo Materials: What to Consider

When selecting the material for your gazebo, cost is a significant factor. While wood gazebos may have a higher initial cost and ongoing maintenance expenses, their natural beauty can be worth the investment. Vinyl gazebos, on the other hand, offer a lower maintenance solution with a potentially lower lifetime cost.

Maintenance Tips for Wood and Vinyl Gazebos

Wood Gazebo Maintenance:

Regular Cleaning: Clean your wood gazebo regularly to remove dirt, debris, and mildew. Use a mild detergent and water solution.

Sealing and Staining: Apply a wood sealant or stain every 1-2 years to protect the wood from moisture and UV rays.

Inspect for Damage: Periodically inspect the gazebo for signs of rot, insect damage, or warping. Address issues promptly to prevent further deterioration.

Vinyl Gazebo Maintenance:

Cleaning: Simply wash your vinyl gazebo with soap and water as needed. This will remove dirt and keep it looking new.

Inspect Joints: Occasionally check the joints and connections to ensure everything is secure.

Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Use non-abrasive cleaners to avoid scratching or damaging the vinyl surface.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Gazebo Materials

Before making your final decision, consider the following factors:

Climate: If you live in an area with extreme weather conditions, you’ll want a material that can withstand those elements.

Aesthetic Preference: Choose a material that complements your outdoor space and personal style.

Budget: Factor in both initial costs and long-term maintenance expenses.

Durability: Consider how long you want your gazebo to last and how much effort you’re willing to put into maintaining it.

Types of Gazebo Roof Materials: Pros and Cons

Your choice of roof material can significantly impact the overall look and functionality of your gazebo. Here are some common options:

Asphalt Shingles:

Pros: Affordable, available in various colors, and easy to install. They provide good protection against the elements.

Cons: May not last as long as other materials and can be susceptible to wind damage.

Metal Roofing (Aluminum, Steel):

Pros: Extremely durable, low maintenance, and resistant to weather damage. Metal roofs can last for decades.

Cons: More expensive than other materials and may not suit all aesthetic preferences.

Wood Shingles:

Pros: Provides a natural, rustic look that complements wood gazebos. Offers good insulation.

Cons: Requires regular maintenance and can be prone to rot or insect damage.

Polycarbonate Panels:

Pros: Lightweight, durable, and allows light to filter through, creating a bright, airy space.

Cons: Can be more expensive and may yellow over time if exposed to UV rays.

Thatch Roofing:

Pros: Provides a tropical, resort-like feel. It’s environmentally friendly and offers good insulation.

Cons: Requires more maintenance and may need to be replaced more frequently.

Final Thoughts

Selecting the best material for your outdoor gazebo involves weighing the pros and cons of each option against your needs, budget, and aesthetic preferences. Whether you choose the natural beauty of wood or the low-maintenance appeal of vinyl, both materials offer unique benefits. By considering the climate, your long-term plans, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to commit to, you can choose the perfect gazebo material that will enhance your outdoor space for years to come.

Google Wins Patent Battle Against Sonos, but Customer Frustration Looms

https://enterprisewired.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Google-Wins-Patent-Battle-Against-Sonos-but-Customer-Frustration-Looms.jpg

Reddit

In a recent patent dispute between tech giants Google and Sonos, the former emerged victorious, causing a ripple effect of frustration among customers. The contentious battle centered around features implemented in smart speakers, with Sonos accusing Google of infringing on its patented technology.

Sonos vs. Google

Sonos alleges that Google’s smart speakers incorporated innovations it had pioneered, accusing the tech giant of a pattern where “an inventor coming out of the woodwork” after the fact. This narrative implies a cycle of innovation followed by a late claim to ideas, adding a layer of complexity to the patent infringement allegations.

Despite Sonos’ claims, Google secured a favorable ruling, prompting Sonos to express its intent to appeal the decision. The legal tussle not only highlights the competitive landscape of the tech industry but also underscores the intricate challenges of navigating intellectual property rights.

In response to the ruling, Sonos customers are now grappling with the aftermath of a feature-stripping scenario. The company, intending to protect its intellectual property, may have inadvertently subjected its user base to disruptions. Google, on the other hand, swiftly moved to re-enable the contested feature, prompting concerns among consumers.

Raised Eyebrows

The swift reinstatement of the feature within a day of the ruling raises eyebrows, with some interpreting it as Google having an “itchy trigger finger.” This term suggests a hasty and impulsive response, leaving users to wonder about the stability of their smart speaker functionalities.

Adding another layer to the narrative, Google’s victory blog post advocates for patent reform. The company suggests that pushing the dynamics of patent cases directly into people’s living rooms through software updates might be part of its strategy to prompt a change in the legal landscape. This move, however, seems to have created more frustration than resolution, as users find themselves caught in the crossfire of legal battles between tech giants.

The situation leaves Sonos customers in a precarious position, unsure of the future stability of their devices. The impending appeal adds another layer of uncertainty, as the legal wrangling could continue to impact the user experience.

Summing Up

As the tech industry grapples with the complexities of intellectual property disputes, this case serves as a reminder of the broader implications for consumers. The intersection of legal battles and product functionalities brings into question the balance between innovation, competition, and the user experience. The aftermath of this patent dispute leaves both companies and users navigating uncharted territory, with the ultimate outcome hinging on the success of Sonos’ appeal and the evolving landscape of patent reform.

The Very Useful Watermark Feature

Whenever I bring up subject matter that involves procedures whereby the location of the feature has moved from one version of the software to another, you should know where it is situated from Version to Version of the software.

The Watermark is a very important feature that should be used to protect against wholesale copying.

Let's take a quick look at the Watermark.

If we choose to implement a watermark in MS Word, we make a decision whether we use a generic watermark such as "Confidential" "Client Copy" etc. or we can use a picture or logo type picture and finally we can use a "Custom Watermark" whereby we type in our own text such as our company name, website etc.

Note: Your Watermark will not print if you do not have the selection “Print Drawings Created In MS Word” checked. You can find this setting under File, Options, Display, Printing Options.

If we print out the file, the watermark will be visible on your hard copy. If we send the file in MS Word to someone and the file is not password protected, then someone can simply remove it. Finally, if we save the file as a PDF, then the watermark will be present in the PDF on its own layer. Again, it can be accessed and removed if you don't password protect the PDF file from editing. In Adobe Professional, this can be done under Tools, Advanced Editing Functions and choose -Touch-Up Object Tool. And one should remember the many programs that break the passwords set on both MS Word and Adobe PDF.

Keep in mind that the watermark can be implemented from the Adobe file since Adobe Professional and Nuance allow one to create a watermark in the newly created PDF.

In MS Word 2010, we find the watermark under the Page Layout Tab.

In MS Word 2013 and above, here is how to get to the watermark feature:

Click the Design tab.

In the Page Background group, click the Watermark button. A menu plops down with a host of predefined watermarks that you can safely place behind the text on your document's pages.

Choose a watermark from the long, long list or customize your own.

Note: To "flatten" the watermark so that it can not be removed! Using Adobe Professional or Nuance, In Nuance, look for the Advanced Processing Tab and select "Flatten".

In Adobe Pro, Click the Layers button, and select "Flatten Layers" from the options menu.

Why WordPress Is Still the Best CMS for Business Websites in 2025

In a world full of website builders and content management systems (CMS), one name has stood the test of time — WordPress. Despite newer tools entering the market, WordPress continues to lead the way in 2025 as the most trusted platform for building professional, secure, and scalable websites.

But what makes WordPress such a powerful CMS? And why do businesses across all industries — from tech startups to cafes and tour operators — still rely on it?

What is a CMS, and Why Do You Need One?

A Content Management System (CMS) is a software platform that allows users to create, manage, and modify content on a website without needing to code everything from scratch.

Whether it’s updating a product page, writing a blog post, or adding new services, a CMS makes it simple and quick.

Popular CMS Options in 2025 Include:

WordPress

Wix

Squarespace

Shopify (for eCommerce)

Webflow

Among these, WordPress remains the most flexible and scalable, powering over 40% of all websites globally.

Top 7 Reasons Why WordPress Still Dominates in 2025

1. It’s Completely Open-Source and Free

One of WordPress’s biggest advantages is that it’s open-source — you have full control over your site’s design, content, and data.

There are no restrictions on how you use it. You can:

Customize every detail

Migrate your site anytime

Add as many users, pages, or plugins as needed

This level of freedom is unmatched by many other platforms.

2. Limitless Design Flexibility

With over 10,000+ themes and visual builders like Elementor and WPBakery, WordPress gives you endless creative control.

Want a minimalist portfolio? A vibrant online store? A multilingual booking system? WordPress can do it all — and look good while doing it.

3. Thousands of Plugins to Expand Your Site

From SEO and analytics to appointment booking and chat support — WordPress’s 60,000+ plugins let you build exactly what you need.

Popular plugin categories include:

SEO: Yoast, Rank Math

Ecommerce: WooCommerce

Security: Wordfence, Sucuri

Speed: LiteSpeed Cache

Forms: WPForms, Gravity Forms

You’re never limited by your theme — you can add new features anytime.

4. Built-In SEO Superpowers

WordPress is SEO-friendly out of the box. Combine that with tools like Yoast SEO, fast-loading themes, and schema plugins — and you’re looking at a website that’s ready to rank on Google.

Plus, it’s easy to:

Add meta titles and descriptions

Create sitemaps

Control URL structures (permalinks)

Optimize image alt tags

For businesses looking to grow organically, WordPress is the most reliable option.

5. Mobile-Responsive and Fast

Most WordPress themes in 2025 are designed to work seamlessly across all screen sizes — from phones to tablets to desktops. Speed optimization plugins like WP Rocket and LiteSpeed Cache make your website lightning fast — a key factor in both SEO and user retention.

6. Ideal for E-Commerce and Service Businesses

Want to sell products online? WooCommerce — WordPress’s native eCommerce plugin — is robust, easy to use, and supports everything from physical goods to digital services.

And if you’re a service-based business, you can add features like:

Appointment scheduling

Live chat

Online payments

Google Maps integration

All with just a few plugin installations.

7. Large Community and Ongoing Support

WordPress is backed by a massive global community. That means:

Regular software updates

Thousands of tutorials and guides

Developers ready to troubleshoot issues

Countless forums and YouTube channels for self-help

It’s a CMS that’s constantly evolving — and won’t be obsolete next year.

What Types of Businesses Use WordPress in 2025?

The beauty of WordPress is its universal adaptability. It’s used by:

Restaurants and cafes for menu display and reservations

Tour companies for blog posts, package listings, and online bookings

Real estate agents for showcasing properties

Startups for portfolio sites and landing pages

Hospitals and clinics for appointment systems and patient information

Online stores selling everything from handmade items to courses

Even major companies like TechCrunch, Sony, and The New Yorker still trust WordPress.

WordPress vs. Other CMS Platforms

WordPress wins for long-term growth and business scalability.

Should You DIY or Hire a Professional?

WordPress is beginner-friendly — but building a website that is fast, secure, mobile-optimized, and SEO-ready from day one takes expertise.

That’s where a professional web design company in Udaipur comes in. A team that understands design, development, SEO, and user behavior can help you:

Customize themes and plugins

Set up proper security and backup systems

Speed-optimize for Google ranking

Build landing pages that convert

You focus on your business — let the experts handle the tech.

Final Words: WordPress Is Still King in 2025

Trends come and go. Website builders rise and fall. But WordPress continues to rule the CMS world — and for good reason.

What Is the Difference Between On-Grid, Off-Grid, and Hybrid Solar Systems?

Currently, the majority of homeowners are installing grid-tied solar systems that interact with their utility. However, there are other types of solar PV plus battery systems, like Off-Grid, and Hybrid solar systems. These alternatives help reduce carbon emissions, lower electricity costs, and enhance energy security. 

While finding the best solar system for your home, the choice between these three installation categories may depend on your location, budget, and overall energy goals. Each type suits different needs and scenarios, making it essential to understand their features before investing in a solar power system.

Let’s break down the core differences in a way that’s easy to understand.

On-Grid Solar Systems (Grid-Tied)

An on-grid solar system, also known as a grid-tied system, operates like a silent partner with your local utility company like  PG&E in California or Con Edison in New York. In this setup, your solar panels generate electricity, which an inverter converts into usable AC power, first meeting your home’s immediate energy needs. Any excess electricity your panels produce is then automatically fed back into the main electricity grid; under Net Metering policies—which are available in many states though constantly evolving—you receive credit for this power, effectively lowering your overall utility bill and making it a primary reason homeowners choose solar. However, your home remains grid-dependent, meaning that when your solar panels aren’t producing enough power, like at night or on cloudy days, your home seamlessly draws electricity from the grid, and typically, these systems do not include battery storage. This is a primary driver for homeowners to go solar, with the average cost of an 11 kW residential solar system in the U.S. being about $29,360 before federal tax credits in 2025, dropping to around $20,552 after the 30% federal tax credit.

Pros:

Cost-Effective: Generally the most affordable solar option as there are no expensive batteries to buy or maintain.

Maximum Savings: Leverages net metering to reduce or even eliminate your electricity bill by selling excess power back to the grid.

Simple Maintenance: Fewer components mean less to maintain.

Cons:

No Power During Outages: If the main grid goes down due to storms, accidents, or scheduled maintenance, your solar system will also shut down for safety reasons. This is known as “anti-islanding.”

Grid Reliance: You are still dependent on the utility grid.

Best For: Homes and businesses with reliable grid connections who want to maximize electricity bill savings and don’t require backup power during outages.

https://vishtik.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Off-Grid-Solar-System-2.png

Off-Grid Solar Systems (Stand-Alone)

An off-grid solar system functions as your own independent power island, operating completely disconnected from the main electricity grid. With this setup, all the electricity consumed by your home must come directly from your solar panels or from batteries that have been charged by your panels, making battery storage essential for storing excess solar energy for use at night or during cloudy periods. A dedicated charge controller is crucial for regulating the power flow to these batteries, safeguarding them from overcharging or deep discharging, and many off-grid systems also include an optional but recommended backup generator (running on gas, propane, or even diesel) to supplement power during extended periods of low sunlight or exceptionally high energy demand. While highly appealing for complete energy independence, especially where extending power lines can cost anywhere from $5 to $25 per linear foot or $2,500 to $12,500 for the first few hundred feet, off-grid systems require careful sizing to ensure sufficient power storage.

Pros:

Total Energy Independence: Freedom from utility bills and grid outages.

Ideal for Remote Locations: Perfect for properties far from the main grid where extending power lines would be prohibitively expensive.

Cons:

Higher Upfront Cost: Batteries significantly increase the initial investment.

Battery Maintenance & Replacement: Batteries have a limited lifespan and require maintenance or eventual replacement, adding to long-term costs.

System Sizing Complexity: Requires accurate sizing to ensure sufficient power storage for all demands, even during extended cloudy periods.

Limited Power: You can only use as much power as your system can generate and store.

Best For: Remote homes, cabins, RVs, or businesses where grid connection is unavailable, unreliable, or too expensive to establish.

https://vishtik.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Hybrid-Solar-System1.png

Hybrid Solar Systems

A hybrid solar system offers the best of both worlds, effectively acting as an on-grid system with an intelligent backup by combining the benefits of grid-tied solar with the crucial security of battery storage. Like on-grid setups, hybrid systems maintain a connection to the main electricity grid but crucially incorporate a battery bank and a specialized hybrid inverter, which is capable of smart energy management: it first directs solar power to supply your home, then channels any excess to charge the batteries, and once the batteries are full, any remaining surplus power can be exported to the grid via net metering. Furthermore, during grid outages, the system automatically switches to battery power, providing seamless backup, and when solar production is low, your home can draw power from either the batteries or the grid, depending on your system’s settings and current battery charge level.

Pros:

Power During Outages: Provides essential backup power during grid failures, offering peace of mind.

Optimized Self-Consumption: Reduces reliance on the grid by using stored solar energy at night.

Potential for Peak Shaving: Can be programmed to use battery power during expensive “peak” or “time-of-use” (TOU) tariff hours to reduce costs.

Cons:

Higher Cost than On-Grid: The addition of batteries and a hybrid inverter increases the initial investment.

Battery Lifespan & Maintenance: Similar to off-grid systems, batteries require eventual replacement.

Best For: Homeowners and businesses who want to maximize savings through net metering and have reliable backup power during grid outages – a highly attractive option, especially in areas prone to severe weather or with evolving utility rate structures.

Conclusion

The choice depends on your priorities, location, and budget:

If your primary goal is to reduce your electricity bill and you have a reliable grid connection: On-Grid is likely your best bet.

If you live in a remote area without a grid connection or desire complete energy independence: Off-Grid is the way to go.

If you want the benefits of bill reduction PLUS the security of backup power during outages: A Hybrid system offers the ideal balance.
