The way that my dad makes me feel so protected and calm through the tiniest things
#On Friday when I had the little dangerous car situation happen I was like I NEED TO TELL DAD AND SAY IM AWARE IT WAS MY OWN FAULT#AND ASK WHAT HE WOULD'VE DONE#And when I told him he's like yeah listen sometimes dangerous situations happen int traffic and sometimes there isn't a perfect way out#And u could've waited a bit longer but there really wasn't a perfect way out of that#And listen.. That'll happen again yknow#And im like YEAH 😭😭 UR RIGHT..#Idk man he really is my stable rock sometimes#He's also realistic about it#Like i could tell mom I ran someone over and she'll be like 'well maybe he deserved it maybe it was actually his own fault.'#'you did nothing wrong baby its not ur fault <3'#Which is nice sometimes#But dad will be like yeah you made a choice and it might not have been the right one. It'll happen again. And you'll learn a bit every time#Thats life#And I'll be crying like YEAH YOURE RIGHT 😭 THANK YOU 😭#Like why is that so calming to hear#Btw i did not run someone over fjsgdjd omg..

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest
Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here
Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭
It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony
#the final confrontation was basically his first death again#and YES he Does want the Joker dead#and it would've been really really nice if Batman was the one who did it#but when batman made it clear he wouldn't kill the joker. Jason easily switched to saying “LET me kill the joker” to accommodate#because he Wanted batman to pass his test#he gave a test to dick too. and technically tim but it wasnt the family test it was a different one so it doesnt rly count#AFTER utrh and the reveal and the batarang you can go hog wild about it. i care less about it then#granted i do believe they make jason more scared of the joker after it at some point#i guess because hes a bit too willing to kill the joker and ive heard jason wasnt meant to live after utrh#my watsonian explain for that is he was so fixated on his plan he cpuld override his fear. or maybe the pit. either work#i prefer the fixation bc i dont like the explanation that the pit was the /only/ reason he could get all plan together and done#BUT THATS UNRELATED!!!#dc stop putting the joker in jason stories im begging you please please please. lock him in a vault for the next 20 years or something#it Cpuld be good and i understand. but also. after so long of people that dont know or go for jasons need for family and parents#that love him and he can trust#the joker starts to feel like?? hm. words. a cop out? oh haha its that guy that killed him woagh hes here#i bet you dont even know that jaybin got beat until unconsciousness by an angry mob#while asking batman to save him only for batman to have to walk away#anwya. where was i going with this#i think i got off topic#jason todd#dc comics#batman#ADDED AN EDIT. SORRY. this post has been haunting me it keeps me awake. what if people misunderstand#they cant read my tags where i ramble more depth. thisbis the only option#EDIT EDIT: hiii#removed the sentence abt jason having the joker for several days bc i misremembered some things#go read its-your-mind 's addition instead also#ok no more i wont edit this post anymore i promise

Can you talk about trans!Curly a little bit more? I'm curios if you have any headcanons and the like
-💀
It's just such a thing in my mind because it adds a truthful sadness and differing aspect to mouthwashing.
If Curly was trans it adds the horror of the horribly selfish thought he could have easily been in Anya's situation. It could've been him but it wasn't and he so conflicted on the pit it put in his stomach that brings and the shameful relief it wasn't. In this scenario he is friends with Jimmy for a long time still. Jimmy likely knew him pretransition. Maybe he gave Curly weird looks then, maybe they never stopped after, maybe they seemed meaner. They are guys now, bros, both of them are. He doesn't really have to worry what those looks mean anymore, Jimmy just has that face with him sometimes. It's recontextualizing a lot of things for him that he was in denial about or too ashamed to admit. How naive he was being and how he let that get another person hurt.
Specifically with Anya, it's he knows the dread and fear she's feeling. He can understand it because he had to live with it for a good portion of his life, he knows it cause he still does, just in a slightly different way. It makes him think of all the times he's been alone with Jimmy, all the times he's been way more drunk off his ass and not remember the night, Jimmy was always with him the next day. Makes him think of the comments he would laugh off both because that's what guys do but because that part of being a girl says to laugh so Jimmy doesn't do something. It's the selfish realization that he was never safe and he's uncertain now too. Mad at himself for forgeting that feeling, espcially since for a long time he would've been considered the only woman on a crew (with all that implies) for a long time.
He should've taken those blinders off, step back into that position for just a moment and it's so much more painful that Anya likely came to him because he should've gotten it. Those thoughts don't leave his mind after the crash when he's in an even more vulnerable position than she was...
#this is less headcanons and more my thoughts of the intersectional horror this brings to mouthwashing which is also a thing it#already has but more directly in the mix vs just the class gender and positional struggle. like the idea he waited to confront Jimmy becaus#he could conceptualize the crime better because of experience with womanhood and also how it would've destroyed him in terms of being trans#like its weird to word as a comparison but thats kinda how empathy works as in an understanding and ability to project through aspects#like you found out your friend who has always had weird feelings about and relating to you is a rapist and got one of your other friend#pregnant and is now being openly hostile and aggressive towards you. You have only a few days to really think on all of this all the years#with him and how many oppurtunites he had that you blame yourself for giving him both in life and to do to you. You are starting to#realize that he may have done what he did to Anya because it was no longer viable with him or because of weird transphobia/homophobia#from Jimmy and god its so much and he should've know better and what did Jimmy do then - c r a s h#he is at such a small amount of mercy to Jimmy now and he can't protect Anya and it's terrifying because i know and you know that Jimmy is#giving him those weird looks again...#like it adds another layer of horror to things and while I don't think Jimmy would do anything to Curly it's heavily implied he targeted he#because of relatively more important position and getting Curly to have doubts about him as a power play and Curly knows Jimmy well enough#that him immediately exerting his authority and power would set him off after already having been mad about it and even when doing#damage control it still set him off. like its the horror of accidenlty siding with your oppresser and hurting other like you only to then b#stabbed in the back again by the person who took advantage of your nature like its so complext but my actual trans curly headcanons#are just a little bit happier like i imagine he was the first on the boys soccer team and a star player. maybe he and jimmy even picked ou#his first offical “boy” clothes and Jimmy picked most so he looked like the grungiest white boy but she was a boy so it didn't matter cause#it was with his friend who accepted him and I bet on the bed he looks back at all those moments and notices the little details that his#friend wasnt actually so happy but he can't be certain when he started looking so bitter or hes just imagining out of paranoia cause he jus#cant know and even if he could he wouldn't want to ask like god thinking about Anya and probably being a little glad if not heartbroken#that she did get out of it in the end like trans curly and anya destroy me even more its so upsetting like he didn't realize how much he go#you girl and waited to act like it was cowardice but then would she not realize what hes realizing? should that be a grace or more of a#condemnation in her mind like what are her thoughts? espically during the scene Jimmy hits Curly like she had to hear and what did she thin#they are tormented in a similar hells with the same demon and its fascinating#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#anya mouthwashing#curly mouthwashing#jimmy mouthwashing

shoutout to itaru chigasaki for just casually and suddenly revealing that he coped with getting bullied in school by literally kinning his favorite video game character, and then getting to play that same character in an officially licensed stage adaptation of one of the games. and not only that but he and his theater troupe got to work directly with the creator of the series who saw the full play and praised itaru specifically for how good his performance was. like if he was on kin tumblr he would've won so hard forever.
#a3#a3! act addict actors#itaru chigasaki#someone reminded me about this on my other kniroun post#i say that as if i don't think about it ALL THE TIME because it's literally so fucking funny#i don't/have never done kin stuff but the closest equivalent to this for me is if like#i was an actor and tetsuya nomura asked my theater to do a kingdom hearts stage play and then he said i did an awesome job playing riku#it's insane. he even has 50k+ followers as a KotR streamer and the fucking creator has seen his content#if i'd been in itaru's position i would've just died actually like what the fuck#star.txt

The Brazilian media (specially the right-wing & Zionists) are slandering President Lula for speaking FACTS! They're insisting on the narrative that what Lula said is antisemitism, and want him to get impeached.
It was about damn time to someone to say something and I'm glad he did!
Now, Israel decided that President Lula is now a "persona non grata" (someone who isn't welcome in the country) until he apologizes for what he said and Lula said he won't apologize for anything.
I wish his boldness to inspire other countries leaders to do the same, and to USA to stop financing this genocide asap.

I think we need to blow up the mouthwashing tag on every social media site
Solid fucking agree 🚬🐴
#asks#anon#can people treat I dunno. really heavy topics with the weight they deserve instead of fandomizing them like everything else. I know the#answer but still. and the way people have done it too is insaneeee like come the fuck on you people are literally ignoring shit for your own#comfort and thus creating some evilass metatextual instances ie using anya as a vessel for your own shit (denying her agency) and ignoring#jimmy on all levels because he makes you so uncomfortable but still wanting to have just one person to blame so villainizing the shit out of#curly when he did very much so fuck up big time but was still a person who did try even if it wasn't enough and also an abuse victim but#nobody likes to acknowledge that because nobody likes the idea that an abuse victim can fuck up big time and still be an abuse victim and#there's also the matter of how people idolize swansea and go oh he would've never let this happen when bro did know what happen halfway into#the months after the crash and didn't formally do anything until daisuke died. and people just act like daisuke can't and never would do#anything wrong when he literally stood there while jimmy rufied swansea. also the whole infantalization by the fandom really takes on a#whole nother tinge when you remember he's the only asian person on the Tulpar. like. guysssss. tears my fucking hair out and kills myself.#there's a reason that the only tag for a media I've found deeply personal I've refused to follow is mouthwashing because from the shit#that's slipped through the cracks alone good fucking god‼️‼️‼️ this is the uncomfortable game about accountability capitalism and sa do NOT#fucking remove the nuance from it. jesus fucking christ😀#anyway. yea.

Things that could've improved UTY:
Keeping the deja vu effect that Undertale had and have it influence how the main characters interact with Clover/Clover's flavor text in certain areas
Make Flowey operate as the Hint System, where almost all of his "helpful advice" are just thinly veiled insults directed at the other characters/are further attempts to isolate Clover from everyone else
#undertale yellow#don't get me wrong i enjoyed the game but that doesn't mean i don't have criticisms#I REALLY wish that there was deja vu in the game. especially after doing a no mercy run. I'd love to see Martlet react to Clover#after they completed a no mercy run. doesn't have to permanently ''break'' the game like in original UT but i still would've#liked to have seen something.#and as for flowey? he's supposed to be the character whose seen/done EVERYTHING in the Underground#i wish he would try to flaunt that knowledge and use it to manipulate clover's feelings about the other characters#but if you listen to him it just makes things worse. like imagine doing the rabbit-scarf and flowey tells clover that it's a waste of time#slurpy was triple dog dared into doing it when everybody knows what happens when you lick metal when it's cold out.#leave him. it's natural selection at this point. and if you choose to listen to Flowey then you miss out on the best armor at that point in#the game.#or he's like ''starlo isn't as cool as you think he is. he's hopelessly in love with Ceroba yet doesn't have the guts to ask her out.#you shouldn't bother looking up to someone like him whose a coward at heart'' and yet it's Starlo who comes to Clover's rescue#in a Pacifist Run. and so on.#thus furthering the idea that out of everyone clover meets flowey is the one with the worst intentions for them.#*rabbit-scarf side quest

like, i said "how many times do you think eiffel's said he wishes he could forget a movie so he could watch it for the first time" because he would and, well... you know. but aside from being kinda darkly funny, i think it's kind of nice? especially if you are of the opinion (like i am) that he will get his memories back in some way, at some point - how many people actually get the chance to watch their favorite stuff for the first time again? and without spoilers or pop culture saturation - maybe he experiences the joy of some of that stuff in a whole new way! maybe there are things he doesn't like without nostalgia and context, or at least things he sees in a whole different light and - assuming he gets his memories back at some point - he would then remember both of those feelings and perspectives... maybe this is too much to hope for, but maybe it could even force him to contextualize some of his own nostalgia and pop culture biases. either way, i think it could potentially be a really interesting detail + angle in further deconstructing eiffel's Default Guy Worldview.
#wolf 359#w359#doug eiffel#like whether you think he gets his memories back or not there's still going to be that like. period of adjustment and discovery for him#and that's way more interesting to me if he DOES get his memories back and then has these two perspectives that are both his own#and kind of has to wonder like. what he would've done the same or differently etc. if he'd had different information and context#you know? it all kinda ties into that repeated theme of eiffel distancing himself from himself and then needing to reconcile#those different versions of who he is. anyway. i have asks about eiffel's memories i'm supposed to answer i'm going to i promise#and also i just. think it's nice in some way that eiffel doesn't know how to live on earth because neither does hera#so at least for that adjustment period. everything will be new to both of them. and that kinda helps.

the writers well and truly hate bonnie i'm sorry but you have to suspend your disbelief so fucking much about the fact that NO ONE ever found it weird that bonnie didn't speak to them over the phone for an entire summer. you mean to tell me not ONE of them tried to call her and found it weird they kept getting sent to voicemail? even if they were all busy and doing well why would a bunch of teenagers accept that bonnie was resorting to email to talk to them exclusively for MONTHS. that's absolutely mad bro the writers hated her so bad jesus christ
#like. over a few weeks yeah#but for an ENTIRE summer#and NOBODY found it weird?#even in your WORST faith takes you have to be logical#and ask. hm. would caroline really not call bonnie for an entire summer if she were traveling?#would elena not have anything to say over the phone AT ALL and simply write emails back?#matt is whatever sorry dude#but even if you HATE elena and caroline. like hate them#you have GOT to admit it is weird and unrealistic as fuck they NEVER spoke to her over the phone the entire summer#and didn't find it weird#even if you want to say “oh elena was obsessed with damon” okay well maybe she would've called to obsess about him over the phone?#y'all love saying she doesn't have consideration for what he's done why wouldn't she do it over the phone#i'm FULLY aware they're bad friends to bonnie the longer the series goes on#but the writers.... REAAALLY hate her for NO ONE to notice#even after her FATHER DIED.#LIKE. NO ONE CALLED TO TELL BONNIE ABOUT THAT?#YOU'VE GOTTTT TO BE JOKING#they couldn't come up with ANYTHING better?#bonnie bennett#elena gilbert#caroline forbes#that whole plot......... just nasty work#i can't take it seriously bro#i also think it's wild for jeremy to like. Not Say Shit about her being dead but i don't care about them butchering his character#not as much anyway#if tyler were there he'd notice (i'm being delusional)#(except i'm not. he's a better friend than the rest of them)#anyway. julie and c. dries are going to hell

i am sooo behind re: what has been asked so. two questions you really want to answer for tiberius <3
tiberius asks!
HATE: What does your OC hate? Why? How do they act towards the object of their hatred?
tiberius hates the brotherhood of steel with a burning passion. he hates the institute too, but considering how much mystery surrounds them still (in my canon at least) and how they actively fuck with tiberius' mind the whole time there's not much he can do about that for the longest time. the brotherhood of steel however? just awakens this deeply rooted rage in him with how they treat the people in settlements and how they go around acting like they own the place
for a while, tiberius can't be actively hostile towards them since he promised max (my other oc, she's the general of the minutemen!) he wouldn't get involved in escalating the situation, but he ends up killing elder maxson for a bet with maccready :/ and then he can do whatever he wants because the whole brotherhood wants him dead at that point. his favorite thing to do is lead them and their vertibirds into territory tiberius knows is hostile territory (think of raider outposts, gunner settlements, etc) and then watch them get annihilated from a safe distance by whoever lives there
TORTURE: Has your OC ever been tortured? Would your OC ever torture someone else?
i can't think of any specific scenarios from the top of my head but tiberius has 100% been tortured. especially during his time as a mercenary he's gotten himself into a lot of nasty situations, which also brings me to my next point, he most definitely has tortured someone else during that time as well. it's never been something he enjoyed doing and it's only ever been as a last resort with people who (according to him) didn't necessarily deserve it but also didn't Not deserve it; basically they'd done something so bad that he didn't feel all too bad about what he was gonna do to them
after the in-game events he does settle down more and steps away from this attitude, all of the more morally questionable things he's done was very much fueled by his desire for revenge against the people who got his sister killed. now that he can finally shed that feeling, he can think more clearly again and base his actions on rational thinking rather than just trying to get to a solution as quickly as possible no matter what it takes
#asks#gurathins#ask:tiberius#oc asks#he's sooo interesting to think about because he doesn't really feel bad about his past actions. he still stands by his belief that like#those people got what was coming to them. if he hadn't done it someone else along the way would've etc etc and so on#but also he wouldn't be quick to do it again now that he's more experienced in the wasteland and has a better understanding of#himself as a person. not actively trying to better himself because that would include admitting to himself that what he did was Wrong#but more just changing his ways and his attitude towards certain things. changing his approach. for reasons he will not be elaborating on

the fact that there are people who still thinks that bo-katan is currently playing some kind of long game is absolutely hilarious to me, like, girl has lost everything, she's depressed and tired and going through multiple different existential crises, you think she's got the emotional capasity to think about the darksaber right now???
#the mandalorian#the mandalorian season 3#bo katan kryze#there's absolutely zero indication that she has any ill intentions right now#'but she has been untrustworthy in the past!!!' yeah well failure can change people#not to mention the whole 'her home getting bombed by the imperials' thing#like what would her plan even be???#gain din's trust and then what??? kindly ask him to hand over the darksaber???#if she wanted to fight him for it she would've done it when he was half dying in episode 2#i mean obviously the season isn't over so anything could happen#but i just don't see it at all

Okay so, imagine you are stuck somewhere and you know you definitely can't get out for a while and you will definitely die of starvation before any help arrives.
Right by you are a human corpse and a humanoid supernatural creature corpse (vampire, werewolf, etc).
... I feel like you can tell where this is going...
I guess the "what the fuck is wrong with you" choice is just you choosing to die.
Explain your answers in the tags or replies or something.
I don't want to interfere with the poll, so my choice would be the humanoid creature. Because it's not human, so it's not cannibalism. Also, if eating it gives me magical side effects, there might be the chance that I either live longer on that one meal or I die faster.
#edit: i forgot tw!!!#cannibalism tw#ummm. if there's more i need to add just tell me#I was thinking of one of my oc's backstory#he chooses to eat both bc he gets stuck there way longer than this hypothetical poll situation#but i was just curious what other people would've done in that situation#and also bc I asked a friend and they said they would just kill themselves bc gross

A Gale of Wolves, Chapter 6: Myrcella
"Ah, ah, this is not your wedding yet, little brother," warned Arianne as she briskly tapped them on their shoulders, pushing them firmly aside so that she could sit between them. "Room enough for the Mother, if you please."
"You're my sister, not my mother," Trystane grumbled. "And there is not enough room for your backside!"
"Trystane!" Myrcella protested, but Arianne had it well in hand.
"If I were Mama, I would spank you on yours," she told him, and swatted at him anyway. Trystane yelped and hit her back, and their end of the table erupted into chaos as brothers and sisters, cousins and friends all shrieked and jabbed at each other, tickling and pinching as one can only do to those one truly loves.
*note: chapters will be posted once a day from April 18 to May 11. Some will be shorter than others, but hopefully this schedule will work for people who a) like to know when they can read the whole thing in one go and b) like to read chapter by chapter as they come.
#game of thrones fic#game of thrones motherfuckers#got: bitches get stuff done#a gale of wolves#a song of darkness and dawn#one really fun thing has been writing siblings and friends in a way where you can tell they just...like each other?#because on the show there aren't a lot of scenes where people just get to be people#and that's a shame because I would've loved to have seen like...Myrcella and Tommen asking Tyrion what he's reading#and Tyrion reading to them the history of Northern fletching practices or something until Jaime finds them and is like#'why are you all like this'#anyway Myrcella ftw the Westerlands won't know what hit it

🎃 trick or treat 🎃
You get a long snippet (act surprised):
Roy flipped to a page at random:
'Ah, la belle dame sans merci who lived in his heart, made known to him in transitory fading splendor by dark eyes in the Ritz-Carlton, by a shadowy glance from a passing carriage in the Bois de Boulogne!'
The book Ted had given Roy had started with, ‘It was a dark and stormy night.’
“Oi!” Jamie started, sitting up to give Roy a concerned frown. “This one isn’t the first in the series.”
Roy shrugged. “Doesn’t matter. They’re all supposed to be self-contained stories. Don’t think I’ve ever met a person who read Wodehouse in order.”
Mollified, Jamie settled back into the cushions with Roy’s book, seemingly unaware of the puzzle Roy was rotating in his head.
Within the first few pages, he had a good idea what Ted intended by giving Jamie this particular book. He also couldn’t help but notice that he’d been given a book fit for his six-year-old niece, and Sam had been given Ender’s Game, and somehow Jamie had been the unlucky bastard with a reading assignment that would make any university student want to stick pencils in their eyes.
Also Anthony Patch was a posh rich twat.
#trick or treat asks#ask game#snippets#partway through suffering through The Beautiful and The Damned and BOY HOWDY DO I HAVE OPINIONS ON THIS BEING JAMIE'S BOOK#i tried to find you something fluffy but instead I found this and I am having STRONG FEELINGS ABOUT IT#anyways the fluffy part is that Roy spends a good chunk of time trying to find A Book for Jamie#partly to undo a little of what Ted did (and he does not even know the whole of THAT yet)#and partly because he has assigned himself Coach Homework to work out what he would've done in Ted's situation#and partly because jamie struggling to finish this stupid book is excruciating to watch. because jamie is not enjoying the book like at all#so here roy has literally just. traded him books. so Jamie can curl up on the couch with Wodehouse#and roy can suffer through the realistic disintegration of a relationship into emotional (and physical) domestic abuse and alcoholism#and like. ted couldn't have known. but wow wow wow this is not a light read#anyways#abuse mention cw#for the tags at least#roy kent#jamie tartt#fic: oh god you're gonna get it (you have not been given love)

Ik i sound like such a stereotypical straight woman rn but. How do i ask my bf for flowers without asking my bf for flowers
#i have like. a shitty history with the concept of getting flowers from your bf/asking for said flowers clearly and nively#by whuch i mean that the one and only time i did it we got into a fight abt it#personal#granted it doesn't rly mean as much as it used to to me mainly bcs my partner always tries to make me feel l9ved and heard#in a billion other ways. so most of the time i forget abt this topic#but then i remember and i'm just like...wouldn't it be nice tho? just once?#technically 2nd time around but i can barely count that one time (with ex i mwntioned above)#like with my ex it was also a matter of him proving that he gives a fuck bca deep inside i could tell he didn't#so i ended up pinning all of my subconscious fears and gut feelings abt the relationship on this one thing#that is acyually rly small and not necessarily proof of a healthy relatoonshop in the grand schemw of things#now it's more like...a bonus. but like. a very NICE bonus y'know#i wanna put flowers in a vase like my sister does#my uni colleagues said i should drop subtle hints like buying my own flowers and casually mentioning it to him#and sbit like that#but that doesn't work with me for two main reasons.#1. i'm not giid at dropping hints or being subtle. i either tell you or abt it or i keep it to myself (and the latter usually leads to chaos#it's a also kind of immature tho i can't rly jydge girls who do it bcs i've experienced first hand how hard it is to ask for smth and#be punished and then fear it's gonna jappen again even if u have no reason to believe that#and finally 2. my bf is neurodivergwnt. like this man didb't even get flirting for a long time. and not onky that but#he's not the kind of person who'd naturalky gravitate towards like. traditional gifts or gender roles if that makes sense#so it's not like he's gonna wake up one day and go oh i should get my girl flowers#it's been more than 3 months he would've done it by now#but if's been 3 happy months and i don't wanna seem ungrateful. for tje first time ever i'm truly in lovr and truly loved in return#don't i already have enough in this regard?#ugghhh....idk what to do#venting
