Is the Agile Hype Over?

Agile hype has been around for over two decades, sweeping through industries with promises of faster delivery, empowered teams, and customer-centric value. But ask around today — from developers and product managers to executives — and you’ll hear a different tone. Burnout from endless sprints. Disillusionment with ceremonies. Frustration with rigid frameworks masquerading as flexibility. So…

expanding I guess? some more redesigns

I think for this au, nobody knows each others identities so it would make for some interesting character dynamics

What is the best thing Shadow has ever cooked?

Ohhhhh man. Last year, for my birthday, Shadow made me this huuuuuge vat of homemade chili for my dawgs. It was so good I think I cried a little.

It was supposed to last you all week…

I’m gonna be honest, it lasted me maybe 24 hours.

He’s really good at comfort foods. Homely stuff. He doesn’t even like eating it, he just stress cooks.

headcanon that children of athena do have powers. it's just that of spiderman. but due to their arachnaphobia. they refuse to acknowledge that side of their god-given abilities and rely on intelligence and strategy to survive.

Pretty Boy

Finan x Reader x Sihtric

Author’s Note: Hi! This is my very first time writing for The Last Kingdom, so please cut me some slack if the characters are a bit ooc. There simply is not enough poly stuff for these two in my humble opinion. I need to be between them both so bad. Okay, please enjoy!

As always, reader is supposed to be gn+vague, so if you catch any mistakes related to that please let me know.

Words: 0.4k — a quick one since I just wanted to get it out :)

Warnings: fluff; pet names (love, pretty boy); kissing; reader is said to have hair with braids but no description of length or color, etc; cheesy as fuck.

Summary: A cute moment spent within Sihtric and Finan's arms.

Check out my other stuff :)

———————————

“What are you thinking about?” Thick with sleep, Finan’s voice is a warm blanket.

Your head tilts to the side as you brush a leaf down his face, smiling softly as his eyes close in bliss.

“Hmm,” you hum as his eyes open and pin you with his stare, “just that you are too pretty to be real.”

His eyes widen, “‘Pretty?!’” he says in mock offense. “I am ‘pretty’ to you? That’s all?! I am a fearsome warrior, I’ll have you know!” His hands fly about as he exaggerates his words.

You can’t help but giggle at his grumbling, feeling your chest warm as he shakes his head side to side in your lap. Your fingers are quick to find the short braids Sihtric wove into the Irishman’s dark hair, the metal beads matching the ones in your and the Dane’s hair.

“Fine, fine! You aren’t pretty.”

As if it were possible, the man grows even more bewildered when you leave your sentence at that. “Excuse me!” His accent thicker than ever.

The laughter bubbles out of you, “What? You didn’t wanna be pretty!”

His mouth opens and closes like a fish as he tries to come up with a response.

You feel the vibrations of Sihtric’s laughter against your back before you hear it. His arms squeezing you just a little tighter. “Keep tormenting him, my love. Misery looks good on him,” his words are said into your shoulder, eyes also peering down at Finan. The smile clear as day in his voice.

“You fucking heathen, you!” Finan sits up in faux rage, but you’re quick to grab his arm and pull him into your chest; smothering his face in light kisses in between your quiet laughter.

“You are the bravest, scariest, toughest, handsomest warrior to have ever walked Wessex. And I am in awe everyday to call you mine.”

The Irishman cups the crown of your head to pull you into a soft kiss. The both of you smiling through it.

You feel Sihtric nuzzle his nose into your neck after a while, “And what about me?”

You and Finan pull away from each other with a laugh.

“You, my friend, are an oaf.”

“Finan!”

He just laughs at your gentle smack against his bicep.

You rest your head back on Sihtric’s shoulder, the hand not holding onto Finan reaching up into his hair. “You are the sweetest, kindest, gentlest, most fearsome,” you lightly pinch Finan as he starts to protest, “warrior, Sihtric. My pretty boy.”

He kisses the spot just below your ear, mumbling his thanks and returning your praise tenfold.

Finan tilts his head back, humming in disapproval. “You got that last bit wrong, love,” it’s Sihtric’s turn to be pulled down, “he’s our pretty boy.” Sihtric moans the second their lips connect.

The embrace between the three of you tightens as you get lost within kisses and caresses for the rest of the night.

why would jason not be able to move around like dick can. why would he not be able to flip around like the person whose movements he was meant to be able to mimic as robin (and DID since some people genuinely thought he and dick were the same person. and bruce himself said jason was a natural). Why. what is anyone saying anymore

[sonicranger1]

Everytime I think about Araknak and his parents and how sweet their dynamic is (even if we only saw a small shred of it)

I get immediately sucker punched by Merlin himself as I remember Araknak most definitely died before them and how they'd never even be able to reunite in death because of the stupid ass Void

Imagine the only thing left of your parents is ur memories of them (taking from what's mentioned in The Book of Ga-Huel where they're able to relive/replay memories in the Void) and how it'd be bittersweet looking through them because on one hand yeah you get to see your parents still in some way yet on the other hand you see all the things you did wrong/should've done better but it's to late now

I AM COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED IN HATING MERLIN, MERLIN I HATE YOU

THEY WERE ALL SO HAPPY IMBSSHWJWJSJSKWJSSJSJ

A question I've been wanting to ask someone who owns a Borzoi for the longest time - are they really as tall/giant as people say? I have/have had Newfies my whole life, but I've also seen the absolute incredible size of Irish Wolfhounds and Great Danes in-person. I've never seen a Borzoi in-person (would kill to do so), and I'm insanely curious to know what their height is like. They're such stunning dogs.

Yes they are! They aren’t as tall as Irish Windhounds or Scottish deerhounds or Danes, but are taller than most mastiff breeds.

The standard only has a minimum, bitches must be at least 26 inches at the withers, and dogs 28 inches. There is no max height, only that they must remain balanced and proportionate at all times. Bitches seem to stay within 26-30 inches, and most males are probably about 30-32. Pls also note they have nice long necks so ya know.

I find their size is easy to get used to though, as they’re generally calm, gentle, and unobtrusive.

For reference, Charlie is about 30”, Margo is 28”, Krampus is 32”, and Georgia is 19” 😂 oh and I’m 6ft so I make them seem like normal dogs 🙄
