side note i know this is more of a patrick trope but i've been thinking a lot about older domlike art and i rarely see anything depicting art in this light, nevertheless a dom art... so we needed this. smut with a bit of degradation and an age gap. art is sorta mean and sleazy muahahahaha. and yn is down bad and detrimentally horny. super quickly written and a mess and just word vomit tbh, just h word today so why not

dilfy blue collar art who's super stressed because of the auto repair shop he runs but that all goes away once you're bent over the hood of the red camaro chevy that's been in the shop for a week now and he's sliding into your wet hole slowly, bottoming out and completing with a slow, raspy, "fuuuck" that sets your insides on fire and makes you clench around him. you're wetting him even more now and he can see and feel your arousal drench him further as your tight pussy grips around him.

"oh fuck, you like that don't you?" it's almost like he's replying to your pussy, a hint of disbelief in his voice.

"yesss," you mewled, your cheek flush against the hood of the car and your tits splayed out before you, unashamed of just how much you wanted this, and how clear it was right now. when you came in days ago, dressed head to toe in pink, sporting fresh goddess locs and heels far too high for an establishment like this, art was but a grumpy, slightly disheveled car mechanic. despite the blue jumpsuit and the smidge of dirt against his cheek, there was still something sexy about him, something you couldn't put a finger on. maybe it was the rasp in his voice, or the twinkle of his tired blue eyes, or the slow maneuvered confidence with which he walked and talked, the kind only a man of his age could possess. someone sure of himself entirely, and tired of the bullshit.

you'd of course called your dad to make sure you weren't getting overcharged, but you flirted with art nonetheless. and it took him way too long to catch on — probably because his mind was on a million other things and he didn't feel like he was in any position to be flirted with by someone of your prowess.

it didn't necessarily click until your boobs were basically on top of the service desk and you were batting your lashes up at him, reaching out to grab at his bicep with a curious cock of your head and asking if he went to the gym, or if he was this strong from working on cars all day. asked him if it got boring, if he had anyone special keeping him company. complimenting his slight massachusetts accent when he laughed and said: "no, no special lady, if that's what you're asking me. just a bunch of idiot employees." told you since you're so sweet he'd throw in a free car polish for you. ignored the bulge in his pants tightening when you gasped: "really?!" with wide, doe-like eyes.

he'd thought about it more often than he should've — jerked off to the thought of you right when he got home (and in the bathroom at work before that), picturing this very moment. and now that he was inside you, he knew his hand would never do — he knew this was a problem. but for now, he allowed himself to throb inside you at the sound of your voice, purring "mhm" as he started to push in and out, slow and steady. you were so wet, it didn't take too much effort.

"just fuckin' slides right in," he muttered under his breath, letting the pace quicken, his hips starting to snap against yours, reveling in the sound your ass made clapping against him. "you like getting fucked like this?"

"mhm," you squeaked, unable to respond properly because of the speed of his thrusts now, how deep he was inside you, making you stir.

"yeah?" it wasn't lost on you that he'd simply pulled his cock out through his jeans, while you were completely naked before him, and it made you squeeze around him harder. "fuck," art groaned, holding your hips briefly with his hands to level himself while he started to slam into you, chuckling to himself at the screech you let out. you met his eyes as you turned to look at him. the pout on your lips was nearly unbearable— he felt like he was in college again and had to stop himself from coming too soon. he slapped against your ass and leaned over, his chest flush against your back so he could whisper in your ear.

"you like this, huh? like getting fucked like a dirty little slut in my shop like this? on top of a customer's car? that what you wanted this whole time?"

"yes, yes, daddy, that's what i wanted," you weren't even trying to be snarky, he was fucking you too good for that.

art groaned loudly, burying his head in your neck for a moment, in disbelief at how much you were like putty in his hands, how easy it was to get you to submit like a little slut for him.

"showing your fucking tits every time you came in here. flirting with me in front of my employees so i can't do nothin' about it. making me jerk off to you in the fucking bathroom," his hips snapped harder every sentence, like he was punishing you for each instance of your unabashed flirting.

"ooh, fuck," you squirmed beneath him, pushing your hips back in tandem with the harsh slaps of his thrusts. "i'm sorry daddy, just wanted — mmm — jus' wanted you."

"wanted me to fuck you, is that it? hmm? needed to get fucked?" he probed, slowing down his pace just so he could hear the desperation in your voice when you responded,

"yes! needed to get fucked by you. o-other boys can't fuck me like—like you can. boys my age."

"yeah, that's right, baby. they can't fuck you like i can. they don't know what to do with your sweet little pussy," art nodded, smirking down at the sight of your ass flush with his thighs.

you nearly screamed when art's fingers met your clit while he was still inside you, your legs shaking behind you. he was fucking you so fast and hard you thought they might give out.

"don't come until i say so," art leaned over you again, his lips flush against your ear, kissing your neck softly — a stark contrast to the way he was fucking into you with abandon.

"please-"

"no," art grunted, his hand coming around your neck to lift it up so you could look at him. "you don't come until i say so. keep begging for it."

so you did.

and when he finally told you: "that's it baby, you can come. come all over this cock, you've been such a good girl," you did just that, cumming all over him while you saw white, and maybe some stars. you were barely coming down by the time he came, pulling out and letting it paint your ass cheeks.

despite being in a car shop, art was thorough with aftercare, holding you in place against the hood of the car for a few moments until the shaking stopped, and cleaning you up with fresh towels.

your car had been finished since last week.

Like these weekly compilations? Tip me at $Kaybarr1735! And if you tip me and give me a way to contact you, at the end of the month I'll send you a link to all of the articles I found but didn't use each week!

1. Rare foal born on estate for first time in 100 years

“The Food Museum at Abbot's Hall in Stowmarket, Suffolk, is home to a small number of Suffolk Punch horses - a breed considered critically endangered by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. A female foal was born on Saturday and has been named Abbots Juno to honour the last horse born at the museum in 1924. [...] Juno is just one of 12 fillies born so far this year in the country and she could potentially help produce more of the breed in the future.”

2. The cement that could turn your house into a giant battery

“[Scientists] at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have found a way of creating an energy storage device known as a supercapacitor from three basic, cheap materials – water, cement and a soot-like substance called carbon black. [... Supercapacitators] can charge much more quickly than a lithium ion battery and don't suffer from the same levels of degradation in performance. [... Future applications of this concrete might include] roads that store solar energy and then release it to recharge electric cars wirelessly as they drive along a road [... and] energy-storing foundations of houses.”

3. New road lights, fewer dead insects—insect-friendly lighting successfully tested

“Tailored and shielded road lights make the light source almost invisible outside the illuminated area and significantly reduces the lethal attraction for flying insects in different environments. [...] The new LED luminaires deliver more focused light, reduce spill light, and are shielded above and to the side to minimize light pollution. [... In contrast,] dimming the conventional lights by a factor of 5 had no significant effect on insect attraction.”

4. When LGBTQ health is at stake, patient navigators are ready to help

“[S]ome health care systems have begun to offer guides, or navigators, to get people the help they need. [... W]hether they're just looking for a new doctor or taking the first step toward getting gender-affirming care, "a lot of our patients really benefit from having someone like me who is there to make sure that they are getting connected with a person who is immediately going to provide a safe environment for them." [... A navigator] also connects people with LGBTQ community organizations, social groups and peer support groups.”

5. Tech company to help tackle invasive plant species

“Himalayan balsam has very sugary nectar which tempts bees and other pollinators away from native plants, thereby preventing them from producing seed. It outcompetes native plant species for resources such as sunlight, space and nutrients. [...] The volunteer scheme is open to all GWT WilderGlos users who have a smartphone and can download the Crowdorsa app, where they can then earn up to 25p per square meter of Balsam removed.”

6. [Fish & Wildlife] Service Provides Over $14 Million to Benefit Local Communities, Clean Waterways and Recreational Boaters

“The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is distributing more than $14 million in Clean Vessel Act grants to improve water quality and increase opportunities for fishing, shellfish harvests and safe swimming in the nation’s waterways. By helping recreational boaters properly dispose of sewage, this year’s grants will improve conditions for local communities, wildlife and recreational boaters in 18 states and Guam.”

7. Bornean clouded leopard family filmed in wild for first time ever

“Camera traps in Tanjung Puting National Park in Indonesian Borneo have captured a Bornean clouded leopard mother and her two cubs wandering through a forest. It's the first time a family of these endangered leopards has been caught on camera in the wild, according [to] staff from the Orangutan Foundation who placed camera traps throughout the forest to learn more about the elusive species.”

8. Toy library helps parents save money 'and the planet'

“Started in 2015 by Annie Berry, South Bristol's toy library aims to reduce waste and allow more children access to more - and sometimes expensive - toys. [...] Ms Berry partnered with the St Philips recycling centre on a pilot project to rescue items back from landfill, bringing more toys into the library. [...] [P]eople use it to support the environment, take out toys that they might not have the space for at home or be able to afford, and allow children to pick non-gender specific toys.”

9. Chicago Receives $3M Grant to Inventory Its Trees and Create Plan to Manage City’s Urban Forest

“The Chicago Park District received a $1.48 million grant [“made available through the federal Inflation Reduction Act”] to complete a 100% inventory of its estimated 250,000 trees, develop an urban forestry management plan and plant 200 trees in disadvantaged areas with the highest need. As with the city, development of the management plan is expected to involve significant community input.”

10. Strong Public Support for Indigenous Co-Stewardship Plan for Bears Ears National Monument

“[The NFW has a] plan to collaboratively steward Bears Ears National Monument to safeguard wildlife, protect cultural resources, and better manage outdoor recreation. The plan was the result of a two-year collaboration among the five Tribes of the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition and upholds Tribal sovereignty, incorporates Traditional Ecological Knowledge, and responsibly manages the monument for hunting, fishing, and other outdoor recreation while ensuring the continued health of the ecosystem.”

Saab Elbil Prototype, 1976. An electric van that started life as a project by ElectroMotion of Lexington, Massachusetts. The fuel crisis of 1973 had inspired interest in alternative fuel vehicles and ElectroMotion set out to create an electric delivery van for the U.S. Postal Service. They formed a collaboration with Saab US whose headquarters were nearby ElectroMotion's. Alas the US company went bankrupt without selling a single vehicle so Saab took over the project. They saw potential for the vehicle in the US but also in their home market in Sweden. The Saab version used many components from the Saab 99 and was even referred to the Saab 99 Electric Van however as the fuel crisis eased interest waned and the project never developed beyond a single prototype. It now resides in the Saab Car Museum in Trollhättan (Sweden).

Musk may have torpedoed the original House bipartisan continuing resolution last week because it would have regulated his business dealings in China.

House Democrats Jim McGovern of Massachusetts and Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut say their Republican colleagues in Congress caved to the demands of Elon Musk, sinking a bipartisan government funding bill that would have regulated U.S. investments in China. Congress passed a separate stopgap funding bill over the weekend, averting a government shutdown. In a series of posts on X, McGovern said more could have been accomplished. The scrapped provision “would have made it easier to keep cutting-edge AI and quantum computing tech — as well as jobs — in America,” he wrote. “But Elon had a problem.” Tesla, run by Musk, is the only foreign automaker to operate a factory in China without a local joint venture. Tesla also built a battery plant down the street from its Shanghai car factory this year, and aims to develop and sell self-driving vehicle technology in China. “His bottom line depends on staying in China’s good graces,” McGovern wrote about Musk. “He wants to build an AI data center there too — which could endanger U.S. security. He’s been bending over backwards to ingratiate himself with Chinese leaders.” SpaceX, Musk’s aerospace and defense contractor, has reportedly withheld its Starlink satellite internet service over Taiwan at the request of Chinese and Russian leaders. Taiwan is a self-ruling democracy that Beijing claims as its territory. Taiwan’s status is one of the biggest flashpoints in U.S.-China relations.

There's an obvious conflict of interest here. Musk doesn't want to offend China because he's worried that it may hurt his bottom line.

Musk contributed $277 million to the Trump campaign and other Republican causes during the 2024 cycle, according to Federal Election Commission filings. Since the election in November, Musk has become a nearly constant presence at Trump’s side, including in meetings with foreign leaders. Trump appointed Musk to co-lead a group that’s not yet formed, but will be tasked with finding ways to cut regulations, personnel and budgets.

At least part of the reason Musk contributed heavily to Trump and other Republicans may be to get them to go soft on China for the sake of his business interests.

Dara Kerr and Edward Helmore at The Guardian:

Thousands of people worldwide on Saturday protested Elon Musk and his efforts with Donald Trump to dismantle the US federal government, with rallies held in front of nearly every Tesla showroom in the US and many around the world – a concerted effort to go after the billionaire’s deep pockets as the CEO of the electric vehicle maker. Protest organizers asked people to do three things: don’t buy a Tesla, sell off Tesla stock and join the “Tesla Takedown” movement. “Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk,” reads one of the group’s taglines. “Stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy.” On Saturday, with more than 200 events planned worldwide, protests kicked off midday in front of Tesla showrooms in Australia and New Zealand and then rippled across Europe in countries including Finland, Norway, Denmark, Germany, France, the Netherlands and the UK. Each rally was locally organized with original themes. In Ireland, it was “Smash the Fash”, and Switzerland had “Down with Doge”. Photos posted to Bluesky by Tesla Takedown showed demonstrators in San Jose, California, close to where Tesla was previously headquartered, and Austin, Texas, where its headquarters are now. Musk, the world’s richest person, heads the so-called “department of government efficiency” (Doge), which he’s tasked with slashing federal budgets in the US, including laying off thousands of workers, though he said in an interview Thursday: “Almost no one has gotten fired.” He’s gone after the Social Security Administration, the Department of Education, the National Park Service and several more departments and agencies, causing widespread backlash and criticism. Musk and Tesla did not return requests for comment. In San Francisco, a crowd of around 200 people gathered in front of the Tesla showroom. Protesters spilled into the busy street and onto the median, confusing the self-driving Waymos trying to get around people darting back and forth. A boombox blasted We’re Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister and cars drove by honking enthusiastically. Even passing postal trucks, public buses and fire engines honked in support. People propped up signs with slogans like “Burn your swastikar before it burns you” and “No Doge bags”. Others flew massive American flags mounted upside down. The block-long Tesla showroom was emptied of all cars, and only a few security guards stood inside, with some San Francisco police outside. At one point, a group of four men wearing red Maga hats and black Doge shirts walked through the crowd, but everything remained calm.

[...] In the US, protests happened in nearly every state, across the north-east, south and midwest through to the west coast. States with the most planned rallies included Massachusetts, New York, Florida, Texas, Washington and California, totaling more than 100. Several protests also took place throughout Canada. [...] Tesla Takedown organizers reiterated the need for people to continue to speak out and protest against Musk, Trump and Doge. The stakes are high and “no one is coming to save us”, they say on their website. [...] Organizers have also been careful to distance themselves from the violent vandalism that has been carried out against Tesla showrooms. Dozens of Tesla facilities have been attacked in the middle of the night with molotov cocktails, gunshots or graffiti saying things like “Fuck Elon” and “Tesla Is Fascist”. Trump has vowed to designate any violence against Tesla dealerships as domestic terrorism. Tesla Takedown organizers condemn the vandalism. “We are a non-violent grassroots protest movement,” the group says. “We oppose violence and destruction of property. Peaceful protest on public property is not domestic terrorism.”

Patriotism in action was being shown in the #TeslaTakedown protests across the world yesterday.

Since 1840 por David Blazejewski Por Flickr: Here's another from the inaugural day of MBTA South Coast Rail service to New Bedford and Fall River, the first regular scheduled passenger trains to serve the cities since 1958. This is the flip side view of one I posted earlier, this time looking south from the north end of the platform on the station's very first day. This five car trainset was specifically made up with control car 1840 for the year rail service first began here and locomotive 2025 to celebrate its return. Having arrived as shuttle train 2059 from East Taunton the set is paused at the new station at MP NM54.5 on the New Bedford mainline located in just about the same location where the grand stone Old Colony Railroad depot once stood. At 1043 it will depart as train 2024, the sixth ever northbound, for its 1 hr 25 min run to South Station picking up passengers from Fall River off shuttle train 1974 scheduled into East Taunton eight minutes before them.

Road Trip

On November 8, 1960, millions of Americans went to the polls in what would become one of the closest Presidential elections in American History:  John Fitzgerald Kennedy versus Richard Milhous Nixon.

That morning, Kennedy voted in Boston and Nixon voted in Whittier, California.  The candidates had spent months canvassing the nation, working to get every last vote – and every last vote was needed.  For the past several weeks, Kennedy and Nixon had criss-crossed the country, debated one another, and been working non-stop to be elected the 35th President of the United States.

After they voted that day, there were results to monitor, precincts to watch, election day problems to take care of, and many other things to worry about.  Imagine being on the cusp of the Presidency – with a 50/50 chance of being elected the next President of a superpower in the grip of the Cold War, with the threat of Communism and nuclear weapons hanging over your head, and the hopes of hundreds of millions of people pinned on either your victory or defeat.  Imagine being in the position of John F. Kennedy or Richard Nixon on November 8, 1960.  What would you do? 

John F. Kennedy put the control of his campaign in the hands of his younger brother, Bobby, and then took a nap.

And Richard Nixon took a road trip to Mexico.

Once Nixon voted that morning at a private home in a quiet Whittier neighborhood, he had been scheduled to head to the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles (where Bobby Kennedy would be assassinated eight years later) for the Election Day vigil and the long wait for the returns which would indicate whether he would be moving into the White House or facing an early retirement. 

Nixon was finished voting by 8:00 AM and hopped into his black Cadillac limousine to be driven to the Ambassador.  Several blocks away from the polling place, Nixon ordered the limousine to stop.  Along with a military aide and a Secret Service agent, Nixon jumped out of the limo and into a white convertible follow-up car driven by an officer from the Los Angeles Police Department.  Nixon took the LAPD officer’s place, got behind the wheel and ditched the press which had been following him.

Driving to La Habra, California, Nixon made a quick visit with his mother, making sure she had voted for her son in the Presidential election.  Nixon drove south along the Pacific Coast Highway, with no specific destination.  He stopped for gasoline in Oceanside and told a gas station attendant – startled to see the Vice President of the United States on a joyride on the very day that he stood for election as President – “I’m just out for a little ride."  Nixon confided that it was his only source of relaxation.

As the group of four men, with Nixon in the driver’s seat, reached San Diego – over two hours away from Nixon’s campaign headquarters at L.A.’s Ambassador Hotel – Nixon pointed out that he hadn’t been to Tijuana in at least 25 years.

As David Pietrusza wrote in his recap of Nixon’s road trip, "Richard Nixon – the ultimate control freak – was winging it on the most important day of his life."  Not only that, but the sitting Vice President of the United States and the man who many Americans were choosing to become the next President, impulsively decided to leave the entire country while those voters were still at the polls.

In Tijuana, Nixon and his party headed to a restaurant called Old Heidelberg.  Despite the fact it was owned by a German, Border Patrol agents told Nixon that it was the best place in Tijuana for Mexican food.  Joined at the last moment by Tijuana’s Mayor, Xicotencati Leyva Aleman, Nixon, his military aide, a Secret Service agent, and an average LAPD officer ate enchiladas in Mexico while John F. Kennedy took a nap in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts.

When Nixon’s press secretary Herb Klein was asked about the missing candidate, he had to tell reporters that Nixon often took some private moments on hectic days such as Election Day.  Really, though, Klein had no clue where Nixon was, eventually admitting that the Vice President was "driving around without any destination”. 

After lunch in Tijuana, Nixon and his companions headed back north towards the United States border crossing.  The LAPD officer took over driving duties as Nixon sat in the convertible’s passenger seat.  A shocked Border Patrol guard shook hands with the Vice President and asked the man who was currently on the ballot for the Presidency, “Are you all citizens of the United States?”.

Nixon and company drove to the Mission of San Juan Capistrano, which Nixon called “one of my favorite Catholic places” on the day he faced the first successful Catholic candidate for the Presidency in American History.  Nixon took his three companions on a quick, informal tour of the Mission.  “For a few minutes, we sat in the empty pews for an interlude of complete escape,” Nixon later recalled.

The missing candidate and his three road trip buddies arrived back in Los Angeles before the election results started rolling in.  Nixon had to explain his trip to reporters who had been searching for him all day.  “It wasn’t planned.  We just started driving and that’s where we wound up.”

In his Memoirs, Nixon didn’t go too far into explaining why he escaped on Election Day, but a paragraph about that day is pretty illuminating:

“After one last frenetic week, it was over.  Since the convention in August I had traveled over 65,000 miles and visited all fifty states.  I had made 180 scheduled speeches and delivered scores of impromptu talks and informal press conferences.  There was nothing more I could have done.”

Except escape to Mexico while JFK slept.
