it remains extremely funny to me that freddie wong accidentally (?) made Dan Fucks, embodiment of pleasure, so distinctly ace-coded. like, Dan talks a big game about sex and seems to view it as interesting and desirable, but when presented with such an obvious in for it he completely ignored Avaricci's come-ons to just talk about non-sexual pleasures like goddamn cold pillows. he's not paying attention to sex at all when it's not personally convenient or expected of him to do so.

100% Elias is ace and just doesn't realize people genuinely crave sex and it's not a metaphor or exaggeration like it is for him yet. bless him.

I'm the copy of a copy of a copy of a woman, you're the copy of a copy of a copy of a guy, but the way we behave towards each other makes me think that even this could be a lie.

you know when you're going through a high stress situation that is prolonged and agonizing but you've put on a brave face and you think you've got this! 💪 and then a week into it you accidentally burn your quinoa and there's smoke and all of a sudden your skin is sloughing off and you feel like alice about to be swept away in a tide of her own tears? mmnnmm yeag.

Serious question: who would be kiwi winged human

And is it mark

It suits him so much

it could very well be! I'm not sure how to put it into words, but... there's a venn diagram with Endou, the flightless wings and the style of karate I used to do for a little long ago (sounds random, I know, but) and they all mix in the middle: the vibe of being close to earth, steady and strong, pulling your power from inside and from the ground. probably makes no sense but that's the best way I can explain it :,D

but oh man. I also didn't know kiwi wings were so small before I went looking for refs....... but that could also fit Endou very well? like he doesn't think them of as anything special. they fit well under loose clothes, so he doesn't even have all of his tops fitted for them. sometimes he forgets about them and surprises new people by accident, or uses them kinda like as a party trick when he's older.

his molts are also probably the easiest, as the feathers shed little by little throughout the year, and not in molting periods. just a bit of lint roller action every now and then!

real enemies to lovers is so intriguing because it perfectly displays how fine the line between love and hate really is. hate is one perspective shift away from love and vice versa.

both love & hate are passionate feelings; and require a similar level of investment.

On Tuesday, Poland summoned Ukraine's ambassador over comments made by President Volodymyr Zelensky at the UN.

He said some nations had feigned solidarity with Ukraine, which Warsaw denounced as "unjustified concerning Poland, which has supported Ukraine since the first days of the war". Poland's prime minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, announced the decision to no longer supply Ukraine with weapons in a televised address on Wednesday after a day of rapidly escalating tensions between the two countries over grain imports. "We are no longer transferring weapons to Ukraine, because we are now arming Poland with more modern weapons," Mr Morawiecki said. The grain dispute began after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine all but closed the main Black Sea shipping lanes and forced Ukraine to find alternative overland routes. That in turn led to large quantities of grain ending up in central Europe. Consequently, the European Union temporarily banned imports of grain into five countries; Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia to protect local farmers, who feared Ukrainian grain was driving down the prices locally. The ban ended on 15 September and the EU chose not to renew it, but Hungary, Slovakia and Poland decided to keep on implementing it.[...]

Earlier this week, Ukraine filed lawsuits to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) against those countries over the bans, which it said were a violation of international obligations. Ukraine's Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said that "it is crucially important for us to prove that individual member states cannot ban imports of Ukrainian goods". But Poland said they would keep the ban in place, and a "complaint before the WTO doesn't impress us". Mr Morawiecki said they would increase the number of banned products from Kyiv if Ukraine escalates the grain dispute. Poland's foreign ministry added that "putting pressure on Poland in multilateral forums or sending complaints to international courts are not appropriate methods to resolve differences between our countries".

Poland's the last of the 3 disputing Ukrainian grain that I would have expected to take it to this level [21 Sep 23]

Silly doodle that led to a big brain moment and another comic as I was sketching it under the cut

Y/N: I have accepted that for some reason this powerful demon got attached to me, and I like them too much as well to do anything about it. The implications, however, are another thing entirely

session 5 for both scott and jimmy mirror each other in that they’re dedicated to powering up and preparing. scott gets a full set of protection IV diamond armor together with 30 diamonds in the enderchest to spare. jimmy, however, spends the entire episode trying to get good enchants on his iron set in a way that reminds me of a small bird flying into a window over and over again
