❛❛ Everything I wanted ❜❜

@thedreamsoficarus

Al despertar le dolía absolutamente todo el cuerpo, lo que era signo de que había pasado la mejor noche de su vida probablemente. Aún así gruñó de forma pesada y se abrazo a la almohada bajo él intentando rascar unos minutos más de sueño, sin embargo su mente parecía no pensar lo mismo y rápidamente empezó a trabajar, así que dando por perdido su sueño se volteó en la cama quedando boca arriba, estirándose como una estrella de mar lo que le hizo darse cuenta de algo importante... No había nada con lo que sus brazos y piernas chocaran, lo que significaba que no había nadie en la cama con él y era era bastante distinto a como se había quedado dormido. Frunció el ceño abriendo los ojos y mirando alrededor, la habitación estaba también muchísimo más recogida de lo que recordaba. No había apenas rastro de lo sucedido la noche anterior.

Tony pensaba que su propio récord no iba a poder superarse y Steve le demostró que no era tan viejo como para no conseguir un sexto orgasmo en una noche. Y dudaba que hubieran parado allí si no fuera porque Tony se quedó completamente dormido en algún punto entre descansos. No había parte de su cuerpo que no hubiera sido tocado, besado o mordido por Steve y la idea era... Excitante en muchos sentidos. Se fue a poner de pie con esfuerzo y bastantes quejidos, dándose cuenta de que el culpable de recoger todo también le había limpiado y puesto la ropa interior, sonrió tontamente, Rogers sin duda era un estúpido. Pero al moverse se dio cuenta de otra cosa, el sonido metálico fue lo que le alertó y al llevarse la mano al pecho a la altura del reactor cogió las dos placas que colgaban de su cuello y que tampoco habían estado allí la noche anterior.

Las miro confundido por unos segundos hasta leer el nombre que ponía en estas y su mente, aún no despierta del todo no encontraba lógica a aquello, así que decidió que lo mejor era simplemente encontrar al dueño de estas. Ni siquiera se molestó en ponerse nada más encima, Friday le saludó alegremente y solo tuvo que seguir el olor a café para encontrar a Steve en la cocina, por un instante se distrajo con el café recién hecho como un zombie yendo a por este como si le hubiera cegado de pronto y una vez tuvo una taza en la mano y dio un sorbo ya volvió a ser una persona funcional. — Buenos días.

TikToker raised over $180K for elderly worker so she could pay her mortgage and finally retire

TikToker raised over $180K for elderly worker so she could pay her mortgage and finally retire

A TikTok user’s fundraising effort has garnered over $180,000. This is to help an elderly Walmart worker pay her mortgage and retire.  Devan Bonagura posted a 15-second video on TikTok in which an elderly woman was sitting alone in the Walmart break room. She was wearing a Walmart uniform with a nametag and a vest. “Life shouldn’t be this hard. I feel bad,” says the caption in Devan’s TikTok…

Bruce Wayne? Billionaire? Philantrophist? Gotham city's obsessive adoptive airhead? How about *model?*

Batman finds out a hitmans next assassination is during a Chanel fashion show and Stephanie, god bless her soul, did the best thing any of his kids woulve done and signed Bruce Wayne up to model.

"Its genius! Actually, of course it is, It was MY idea- So Bruce can like, go there undercover on the runway"

"Stephanie I havent modeled much less walked a runway in more than 20 years-"

"Shut up old man your Hugo Boss partnership hasnt expired yet"

"Please, Stephanie. You just want to see me model again"

"You have to partner with Chanel again holy shit Bruce-"

The batkids keep all existing Bruce Wayne magazines (Its actually Alfred that collects them)

Their plan goes amazingly. Stephanie is elated. Bruce Wayne is on the news everywhere. All of a sudden all branded clothing lines want him to model for them too. Bruce Wayne just gained a new job. The batkids are amused.

clutching my head im so sick and tired and suffering but i cant stop thinking of wenzhou!radiostatic please someone say they see the vision... vox as zhou zishu and alastor as wen kexing (duh. they've even got the colour scheme down) niffty as gu xiang and i havent really thought out who cao weining could be but i do think lucifer would make a really funny ye baiyi

the blue one is zhou zishu the red one is wen kexing. and zhou zishu goes by a fake name (zhou xu) as a visual

context+ screenshots of stupid quotes i think would make sense for them/my deranged feverish ramblings underneath the cut

tell me this doesnt sound like something alastor would say about vox

this one is funny because in context wen kexing is like a mass murderer and criminal but he keeps calling himself a philantrophist even though No One believes him and thats very "Alastor Altruist" of him

also very radiostatic conversation like. but this one is even funnier in context because zhou zishu is wearing a human skin mask to disguise his own face and he purposely chose an ugly one so no one would know it was him but wen kexing saw through it literally immediately

exhibit d

they're inspecting a dead body.

technically these two passages are more indicative of lucifer + alastor interactions but actually i dont think i took too many screenshots of wen kexing dissing ye baiyi so pretend its alastor thinking of lucifer

this is vox's perspective on lucifer and alastor lmfao

ive realized just now that voxs employee would make an excellent zhang chengling (he's basically wenzhous adopted son)

this is radiostatics love language

radiostatic and valentino (he'd be the boss scorpion in this case)

I gotta be honest, I hate when anons do this 🙃 Share your sources or shut up please. If we’re not getting content, I really don’t care where they are. I’m a visual person. I’m here for the pretty pictures

We gotta give the other anons a break, they’re also just bored lmao

In the meantime, just look at my favorite pretty picture again from last year’s Ballon d'Or 😍

They’re so beautiful and they were really giving tech investor/philantrophist couple energy here idk why but I love it so much

Lovely fan photographs of Jane Asher in New York, 1971. Jane acted in The Philantrophist from March 15th to May 15th 1971 at Ethel Barrymore Theatre. Pictures found on the web and Meet The Beatles For real blogspot. My enhancements! 🤍✨

A North American fan, Marie Lacey, wrote:

“The first I met Jane Asher was in March, 1971, when she came over to New York for a three month engagement on Broadway and starred in “The Philanthropist.” It was Jane’s second visit to New York, the first being back in 1967 when she did a five month tour with the Bristol Old Vic in “Romeo and Juliet.” Jane seemed a bit leery when she first realized the group of girls at the stage door was waiting for her, remembering how she had been occasionally threatened by jealous fans during her stay in 1967. When she saw that we had flowers for her, she broke into a relieved smile and was genuinely thrilled. And she kept saying, “for me?” She was so sweet and friendly, posing for photographs, and chatting with us as if we were old friends. Victor Spinetti was also in the play, and he delighted in telling us old Beatles stories, jokes and actually performed skits from the films! (what an ego).

We became regulars and got to know both Jane and Victor as well as could be possible. Some people came to see Victor every week, but we were really interested in getting to know Jane. Jane was beautiful and it was easy to see what Paul had seen in her and I must admit, out getting to know her made it even harder to understand what made him give her up.

One day Jane said she was going to bring us flowers, but wasn’t sure if we’d be there that day or not! It was another change in roles when Jane brought along her movie camera one day and took movies of our shocked faces (We were really creative, and managed to wave into the camera!) We were to have tea together, but the play ended earlier than had been expected and we said hurried goodbyes as Jane flew off to California to visit her brother, Peter.

Jane had told us to come visit her if we ever came to England, so in 1972, I telephoned, and her sister knew who we were, but unfortunately, Jane was on holiday to France. We saw our old pal, Victor, again in 1973, it was he who told us about Jane and Gerald Scarfe. She and Gerald had a daughter, Kate, in April 1974. I still kept contact with Jane, and heard from her at least once a year."

If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

23.) If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

"remember how to spell the word philantrophist, it might do you some good some day."

context: i won 2nd place in my school's spelling bee because i forgot how to spell that one specific word (listed above) and i panicked. in the end, i spelled it with only one h.

i don't know why, but out of all the mistakes i've made this year, out of all the regrettable memories i've had that are objectively far worse than this one— this one however, i regret the most. i don't even know why. it's kinda funny if you think about it. pathetic, but hilarious.

I was drawing Tony as usual, but for some reason his hair ended up looking like the Tiktok middle part hairstyle and I think that Marvel really missed an oportunity here, RDJ would have rocked this hairstyle, i feel like it gives a lot of “Genius, Millionaire, Playboy, Philantrophist” vibes, plus he looks kinda cute. Anyways, just some weird thoughts at 1 AM.

[nameless-brand]

Explosions still going off through the night including an elementary school. Again, no casualties. I suppose that elementary school is probably to prove to everyone that there are stakes. Many of the reported explosions involved the industrial complex; I'm not exactly sure what sort of game Riddler is playing. Do the explosions mean Batman lost? Or is it a deathtrap that Batman escaped? On the daytime broadcasts, the rare Live ones, he doesn't seem like he's losing - he's just getting more excited and smug.

In any case, people are afraid to go out, even during the day as they're concerned that the supervillain would decide that his game with Batman would be better played with the general public.

Anyway, onto Riddler's "advertisements" of people and companies who haven't paid him.

So Riddler's reveals include Ace Chemicals, which is now under investigation due to the manufacturing of Agent J2123, colloquially known as Joker gas. Ace Chemicals denies the allegations, stating that if someone were manufacturing the gas inside the company, they don't know about it - which most people are taking as admission. Their stock is tanking. I'll probably grab some once I feel public opinion is distracted by another big reveal.

Simon Stagg, the philantrophist, also is under investigation for the number of deceased animals, chimpanzees mostly, in its attempt to develop air inoculation technology. Part of the revelation from Riddler is that he's paid a good amount of money to Gotham's politicos to suppress that information. There's even a money trail. Obviously, Stagg says everything is lies, but given what's been revealed already, it's hard to believe him.

And, Gotham Zoo employees and its animals, well - the deeds probably shouldn't be repeated in a public venue.

---

Also, I'm playing damage control myself. I had recently acquired a real estate company - the ones that wrecked Chi's orphanage several years ago and forced her out onto the streets. Apparently, they've been doing some pretty shady things to the rent-controlled tenants like forcing them out with very bad conditions or loopholes in favor of people who can pay more.

Luckily, their behavior doesn't reflect on me since I barely acquired it 2-3 months ago, and I could probably twist it into good PR for me. But the fact I didn't know that the Riddler had sent me a "blackmail note" means I still have bad eggs in that real estate company, particularly the IT department or maybe the mostly-broken-up Board of Directors.

I already figured that though. That particularly company has never felt like Mine anyway. I should've gutted the entire thing from the start and replace everyone who isn't trustworthy. This really just gives me the excuse to do so.

I should actually add this: I don't care about what you guys think the millionaires do and what will do with their money or if they will find people like me "worthy" of any attention. Or that they're actually not philantrophists. I don't really have that in mind when it comes to such incidents. I just find your brand of pettiness very out of place. Like very unnerving and unfunny.
