MOAR Wangxian Rec Sources!

~*~

Hi, I’ve made 13 Wangxian collections on Archive of Our Own, based on special themes/tags. Feel free to use them for your own search/library activities. I love your blog, keep up the good work 💪~ @hhtopblog

~*~

Oh, thank you so much for telling us about your curated collections, my dear;  this is so useful.  I notice that they’re Open... does that mean others can make suggestions or add their own bookmarks?  (It’s absolutely fine if not, I’m just clarifying).

Here are the 13 collections, for y’all’s reading pleasure! These are Bookmark collections, rather than Works collections, so be sure to go hunting under the right tab! How wonderfully organized! 

📖

⚫The Untamed Alcohol Effect -- "A drunk man’s words are a sober man’s thoughts" or: the alcohol effect in MDZS/The Untamed.

⚫The Untamed Brothers and Beasts -- Enchanting Wangxian fics where Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian are bonded as rabbits, wolves, foxes, dragons, demons or other magic creatures

⚫The Untamed Epistolary Edition -- Fics about Wangxian getting together in series of letters, e-mails, social media, vlogs, online games

⚫The Untamed Great Pretenders -- A collection of Wangxian falling-in-love-fics while faking their identity, relationship or marriage

⚫The Untamed Green-Eyed Kunze -- This collection is about jealousy, mostly Lan Zhan's. His critique on Wei Ying is secretly meant as a warning for himself. “Shameless”, because he loves Wei Ying more than the rules. "Ridiculous", because Wei Ying doesn’t love him, he only likes to tease. “Boring”, because he just knows Wei Ying will leave him one day for a more interesting person, right?

⚫The Untamed Kinsey Reports -- The ultimate Untamed collection on 'Sexual Behavior of the Human Male' as mentioned in The Kinsey Reports (1948): masturbation, pre-adolescent orgasm, biting, seven grades of sexual orientation, marital coitus, sadomasochism.

⚫The Untamed Love Has No Ending -- Real love has no ending. The best Wangxian fics about mutual pining, grief, getting together or getting back together.

⚫The Untamed Love Thy Neighbor -- A fine collection of Wangxian AU fics where Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian fall in love as they share a room, building, campus, office, or whatever.

⚫The Untamed Medics Portal -- Wangxian Sick-Fics where Wei Wuxian or Lan Wangji are either patient or doctor waiting for their soul mate.

⚫The Untamed Rules of Seduction -- Great fics about mutual attraction between Lan Zhan and Wei Ying; their strategy to seduce each other, unconsciously or intentionally.

⚫The Untamed Sporty Boys -- Modern Wangxian fics where The Untamed cast gather at sport clubs, events, or the local cultivators gym.

⚫The Untamed Time Travel Edition -- Enjoy Wangxian fics where Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian meet each other in different eras, universes, like themselves, aliens, androids or otherwise, to reach that same happy ending.

⚫The Untamed Wangxian Retellings -- The lovestory of Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian retold in the format of other well-known novels, movies, tv series, fairytales or legends.

Yo you should answer all of these scene questions👀👀

:OOO

you think so lad???? shit dawg i was thinkin just a few at a time but if that what u want my dear nonnie i will supply

1. wats ur scene name?

i was thinkin maybe ‘gods mistake’ would be a good one but then. i found a way to make it both danganronpa related, and, even better, a fucking pun as well. ‘kamukura kamukura jasqueen’, or just ‘kamukura jasqueen’ for short is good k thxxx

2. describe ur dream outfit!

oooo gosh this ones trickyy!! there are so many good outfits out there, especially in the scene community!! but it’d have to have a few tiny elements of dr cosplay to add a lil of my dangan-weeb culture in there ofc! more specifically, id really love to get one of kazuichis jumpsuit and just wig out and add shit like this just because i could:

(id just rlly love going out in all those glowy/shiny things at night like all that haha..and yes the shoes would probably kill me/my fuckin feet if i tried to walk in them but shut up i love them theyre cute as fuck)

3. describe ur dream haircut!

oo another tricky one!! i do like my regular hair, and honestly id be lying if i said i didnt love ibuki’s hairdo too but id defs have to go with something like this!!

yaaaassss, so pretty and spikeeeey! maybe id dye my natural hair colour black and/or add some funky colours if i ever actually got this style down!

4. describe ur dream room!

i have a lot of ideas for dream bedrooms actually, but heres a visual image of one of them i found!!!

MIKU ROOM MIKU ROOM MIKU ROOM MIKU ROOM

(this specific idea arose mainly just for the aesthetic but i also find it super cute and a good environment to be in general hhhnnggg)

5. if u could make anything out of kandi, wat would u make?

oh you mean those colourful beads and bracelet things??? i love those man!!! theyre so visually appealing to me aaaaa…id probably just make a fuck-ton of those and most probably use the little letter beads to say random words/phrases like ‘aubergine’ and ‘despacito’ knowing my shitposter self lmaooo! id definitely make a sansmaeda themed one too thoo fr

6. wat would u write on ur shoez?

it’d probably range from things like a simple kaomoji doodle to something randum and stupid like ‘seesaw’ bc yes asjnd

7. wat kinda piercingz/tattooz do u hav/want?

i dont think i rlly want any real piercings (at least not atm) but id totally go for those fake stick-on gemstone lookin’ ones! and as for tattoos, i cant rlly see myself gettin one of those rn either, but id want something like a mario power-up, preferably the bell one/cat suit powerup!!! its my favorite powerup and its sooo cute!!!

Take your Windows Terminal and PowerShell to the next level with Terminal Icons

I'm having a blast customizing my terminal and making my prompt awesome.

How to make a pretty prompt in Windows Terminal with Powerline, Nerd Fonts, Cascadia Code, WSL, and oh-my-posh

Taking your PowerShell prompt to the next level with Windows Terminal and Oh my Posh 3

How to use, open, resize, and split Panes in the Windows Terminal

What's the difference between a console, a terminal, and a shell?

It's time for you to install Windows Terminal

I thought it was lovely when I added Oh my Posh 3. But now that I've seen Kayla Cinnamon's terminal MINE IS HIDEOUS!

Ok, what can we add? MOAR ICONS.

Turns out that Brandon Olin from StackOverflow has created a Terminals Icons package that is *chefs kiss*. Go give this man 1000 stars, please.

Given I'm using the completely overpowered "caskaydiacove nf" Nerd Font Variant of the lovely Cascadia Code font, I've got all the icons I need ready to go!

I just install. (I'm using PowerShell 7 from the Windows Store, but remember PowerShell is cross platform):

PS> Install-Module -Name Terminal-Icons -Repository PSGallery

And then add one line to my $profile (edit with "code $profile"):

Import-Module -Name Terminal-Icons

Now look at a directory, use dir, ls, or get-childitem, it doesn't matter...AND BEHOLD:

Thanks Brandon and Kayla! Great stuff! What customizations have YOU made?

10 To Watch : Mayor’s Edition 7819

RICK HORROW’S TOP 10 SPORTS/BIZ/TECH/PHILANTHROPY ISSUES FOR THE WEEK OF JULY 8 : Mayor’s Edition

With Jacob Aere

Cleveland hosting the 2019 MLB All-Star Game is positively impacting the city's economy. As reported by Fox 8 Cleveland, the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission estimates All-Star Week will generate $65 million in revenue for Cleveland businesses, which includes packed restaurants, sports bars, hotels, and visitors checking out other attractions like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  MLB's Play Ball Park drew big crowds to the Huntington Convention Center over the weekend. Restaurants are bringing in extra staff, which will also benefit workers who will earn extra tips this week. 2,000 media members are in town giving Cleveland worldwide attention. The huge amount of money being spent in Cleveland, also means the city cashes in with extra tax money which can be used for city improvements, like roads, public transport, and community service programs. Stores like the Cleveland Clothing Company on Euclid Avenue are packed more than usual. "It's been great for the community and the city," manager Desiree Moar told Fox8. Cleveland will once again be in the national spotlight when the city hosts the NFL Draft in 2021, and the NBA All Star Game in 2022.

BofA launches ASG-tied rewards program. As noted by Cynopsis, ahead of the MLB All-Star Game in Cleveland, longtime MLB sponsor Bank of America launched a rewards program tied to ASG festivities. Looking to leverage the drama of extra innings, the “Extra Rewards” promotion offers BofA customers discounts on licensed merchandise at MLB.com, along with some exclusive merchandise. TV ads will support the program, primarily on MLB asset media and in markets where BofA has RSN inventory on local MLB telecasts. Tags supporting the promo will also be read as extra-inning games occur, along with digital and social media. BofA CMO Meredith Verdone said the promotion is designed to enhance customer relevancy and engagement. “The thing we love about the association with extra innings is that there’s always an exciting, emotional ending,” she added. This All-Star Game is especially key to BofA, since it is just entering the Ohio market with retail banking. BofA, an MLB sponsor since 2004, also has deals with the Astros, Cardinals, Dodgers, Giants, Orioles, Red Sox, and Yankees.

The U.S. women's national team beat the Netherlands on Sunday to defend their title as reigning World Cup champions. When they get back home, they've got a different battle awaiting – their legal fight for equal pay and treatment. In March, the 28 members of the 2015 World Cup-winning team -- including current national team stars Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe, and Carli Lloyd -- filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation alleging gender discrimination in their treatment versus how the governing body treats the men's team. "The U.S. women’s soccer team does not need to be the best in the world in order to earn equal pay. The point of non-discrimination law is that employees doing similar work should be paid equally," Columbia Law School’s Suzanne B. Goldberg told ABC News. The lawsuit also cites the denial of "at least equal playing, training, and travel conditions; and equal promotion of their games." Added Goldberg, “In this instance, where the women's team is outplaying the men's team, there is an argument that they should be paid more than their male counterparts," she said. A U.S. Soccer spokesperson confirmed that the women's team and the federation tentatively agreed to mediation after the World Cup

USWNT jersey sales have outpaced all other U.S. soccer jerseys, including those of the men's team, according to statistics from Nike and Fanatics. As reported by ESPN, Nike said in its earnings report that the women's 2019 stadium home jersey is now the No. 1-selling soccer jersey, men's or women's, ever sold on Nike.com in one season. Fanatics said this is the top-selling U.S. Soccer national team, men's or women's, of all time. "It's hard to overstate how important this year has been to the evolution of the women's offense at Nike," president and CEO Mark Parker said. The USWNT’s success has helped drive business for Nike even past the jersey, which retails for $90. Parker said the energy around the World Cup, with nearly two-thirds of the teams wearing Nike kits and half the players wearing Nike boots, has pushed the company to the No. 1 position in market share for bras this quarter in North America for the first time in the company's history. That stat is impressive given the exposure Nike gained in 1999, when Brandi Chastain scored the winning goal against China in a shootout and tore off her jersey, revealing her sports bra – one of the most iconic moments in women's sports history.

While it’s long been green, this year Wimbledon is seriously ramping up its sustainability initiatives. Week Two of Wimbledon is underway at the All England Club, and one sight that hasn’t been seen at this year's tournament is "players discarding the plastic cover from a freshly strung racket." As the Guardian noted, following a sustainability review, the "removal of plastic bags from the player racket stringing operation means there will be 4,500 fewer plastic bags used" this year. Wimbledon sponsor Evian also launched “its first 100% recycled and 100% recyclable water bottle at this year’s championships." Meanwhile, longtime sponsor Rolex ran a full-page ad in the New York Times touting its standing as the official jeweler of Wimbledon: "140 Years of Memorable Performances Ensure Centre Court Will Remain Tennis's Ultimate Stage." And timeless tennis superstar Roger Federer has been reveling in a different kind of green: Federer topped Forbes’ list of 2018 athlete endorsement income, at $65 million besting LeBron James ($52 million), Cristiano Ronaldo ($47 million), Tiger Woods, and Steph Curry (tied at $42 million)

IMG is close to signing a ten-year deal worth $1 billion for betting streaming and data rights to the ATP Tour. According to SportBusiness, the partnership being discussed between global agency IMG and ATP Media – the tour’s commercial arm – will reportedly cover the nine ATP Masters 100 tournaments, the Tour 500 series, and a number of the 250 series events. If successful, the deal would add to the agency's growing portfolio of contracts for IMG Arena, its sports betting and content arm. The division, launched in November, 2018, is already a data partner for golf’s PGA Tour and European Tour, and looking at capitalizing on new U.S. sports wagering laws. IMG's involvement in tennis is already significant. The agency has representatives on the ATP board, reps elite players including Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka, and owns and operates ATP tournaments including the Miami Open and Rio Open. If confirmed, this will be the biggest rights deal in tennis history.

Major League Soccer will host a new MLS All-Star Skills Challenge presented by Target at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports on July 30. The first-time event takes place during the MLS All-Star break, allowing fans to watch on MLSsoccer.com and the MLS App and streamed live in English, Spanish, and French across the digital platforms of all five MLS domestic media partners – ESPN, FOX, and Univision in the U.S., TSN and TVA Sports in Canada – as well as in more than 170 countries around the world through MLS’ international media partners.

The MLB All Star Game auctions off Louisville Slugger and Fender guitars for charity. This year’s All-Star game is taking place in Cleveland, Ohio, and will pay tribute to the home of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. According to Yahoo! Finance, the location of the All-Star Week makes for an ideal partnership between two manufacturers that are world leaders in their respective areas: Louisville Slugger baseball bats and Fender musical instruments. To celebrate the rock n’ roll history of the city, MLB partnered with the two companies to create a public exhibit featuring 31 pairs of artist-painted Fender Stratocasters and Louisville Slugger baseball bats, one for each MLB team and one for the Baseball Hall of Fame. These bats and guitars will be displayed through July 9 at Cleveland Public Square’s Midsummer Village and will later be auctioned off for charity, with funds raised by MLB Charities to be used for instrument purchases and music program learning resources.

What’s New for Designers, June 2017

There’s a mix of function and fun in new design and development tools this month. From adding emojis to links, to fonts that wow, to CSS tricks, there’s a little something for everyone in this collection. Plus, almost everything on the list this month is free, except for a couple typefaces and tools. They’re sure to be useful to designers and developers, from beginners to experts.

If we’ve missed something that you think should have been on the list, let us know in the comments. And if you know of a new app or resource that should be featured next month, tweet it to @carriecousins to be considered!
