#Gmail password help

[seventypercentvodka]

Hi i'm getting desperate and I figured there has to be a tech nerd on Tumblr somewhere, so wherever whoever you are help please 🥺

I have my Google account open on my PC and my phone but can't remember my password and didn't save it when I opened it, can anyone please tell me how to see my password without changing it? If I go to configuration and personal data there is a place that says password and it has the *** thing, but when I click it says that I need to confirm my identity with my password and since it's a work mail the only other way I have it's to ask my boss for help and I will kinda rather die tbh I'm too new to this job to be this irresponsible please if anyone has any ideas hit me up

Even if you don't really know maybe tag my post with the correct tags so someone who knows sees it? I added what I could think of but is still not great

Hi Ixi!

I know this doesn't directly concern Good Omens, but it's really important. Instagram/Meta has sneakily started auto-opting people in to surrendering all their data for generative AI training two weeks back. I don't have any reach, so I thought I'd try to send an ask to you in order to warn as many people as possible. Everyone who still has content (new or old) on Meta services would be affected by this, I think. Whether a profile is private or not does not matter - the only content they say they aren't touching yet is DMs.

The only options are to either force them to delete all your data and close the accounts, or opting out. Opting out is made to be deliberately annoying and may not even be available everywhere.

If it is, here's a short guide to do so: You should be able to find a message from Meta in your notifications saying something to the effect of 'we will feed you to our AI models'. Click on it, then click on 'right to object' in the text. Fill out the form. I don't think it really matters what one writes - in most places, they are required by law to honour the objection. It might help to have something to copy, so I freestyled this and it worked: "I object to my data being used to train generative AI in accordance with all applicable data protection laws. This is a gross invasion of privacy. I do not consent to my likeness being commercialised by you. You have no right to use this data as AI training data without my consent."

If the email with the verification OTP (one-time-password) doesn't arrive, switch off browser protection, try a different browser or a different email address. Gmail worked for me. The request is linked to the currently-logged-in Insta account, so the address used isn't relevant. If all goes well, you will receive an email at the OTP email address a few seconds later saying you've been opted out. That's it!

I hope you'll see this and that it can help people out, especially considering the sizeable artist community here on Tumblr.

Thank you!

So, my laptop has decided to leave this world, in the way of the motherboard no longer functioning. It was a long time coming, I've been taping it together like a bunch of scraps for a year now. 

I've said goodbye to it in a ritual where I hugged it and sang to it while crying, after trying to fix it for an hour and a half. It was kinda nice! I wish all of my past friendships had ended this way - hours of ernest attempts of fixing, followed by singing, hugging and crying as we part ways. I would have felt better about it all. 

I am having some withdrawal because I've been unwisely coping with my mental illness by playing stardew valley every availabile moment. And now I can't, so I am doing the only thing my phone is capable of - reading wikipedia. Which you're finding out about because I can't learn a new piece of infomation without instantly broadcasting it with a deep analysis of what I think it means.

So how am I still endlessly posting on tumblr when my phone can't even access it? Well. It's a process.

I noticed the woman I care for has a tablet, connected to internet. But it has a password. I've sneakily elicited the password (asked her if I can have it). But to seem polite and normal, I'm borrowing the tablet in 5-minute intervals. Which isn't enough to look trough messages, reply to asks, check notes and type a sensible paragraph and click post.

So I am typing this on my phone, which can somehow still open my gmail account. I'm writing emails to myself. Then I send it to my regular email account, which my phone can't open, but tablet can. Hours later, I open it on tablet, copy-paste the entire text on tumblr and click post. Tumblrinas will do anything to get her posts out there. 

On the other hand, I've been finger typing this for half an hour, I am on samsung galaxy android phone using one finger to type. It is rough out here. This method will work while I'm borrowing a tablet, and afterwards, I might be able to procure another laptop, we'll see! Someone is helping me figure it out.

Sorry everyone in my DM's that I got silent! I will write back to you when the gods of electronics smile upon me.

Your outfit for today 

It was a surprisingly quiet Saturday morning. Today your shop was closed, but your staff was still working tirelessly to finish the influx of custom orders. This was no uncommon flux however, it was that time of the year. La Mesa Alta’s annual ball was right around the corner, and people were coming to you so that they could scrounge together some outfits. You’ve been on your feet for a while, cutting at different types of fabric, sewing, perfecting, and repeating. This would be a vicious cycle, but you loved creating too much to be burdened by the workload and demand requested of you and your staff. If anything, that demand made you work harder.

A busy 4 hours later, you finally get the chance to sit down. It’s been a day already, and it's only noon. You were a little concerned that Mercedes didnt get back to you at 10, but you knew she would call you back at some point in the day. You open your laptop, and see a notification at the top from a name you didn't expect. 

! 1 Gmail Notification from dearrawashington@gmail.com

‘I know you’re fucking lying’

“Umm Gio! Mads! Here… and quickly!” They hurry quickly to your side and look at your computer. “What is i- what the fuck is that?” Gio says, pointing at the notification in the top right corner. Madison folds her arms across her chest and sits in her hip, rolling her eyes “I know that’s not who I think it is.” You hear Gio sigh and add on, “This bitch.”

“Calm down with the ad libs alright? Who is this girl anyway? I didn't know anything about her until she came into my shop.” You felt like you were missing out on some important information. Everyone knew about this girl except for you, and you know everyone. Usually. “Oh, I forgot, you weren't out here when she was acting a damn fool.” ‘Excuse me?’

“When was this?” You sit back in the swivel chair, looking at Gio. “While you had your appointment with Roman. She was looking through the clothes saying that her friend JT could make one design better than your entire rack.” ‘THE FUCK?!’ 

You didn’t stand for disrespect. Both of them knew that. So they knew that this wasn't gonna slide by you. “Lemme see what this email is about,” you say, typing in your password and opening up your Gmail. You were in no way excited nor looking forward to anything that this email was going to say.

Good Morning Ms. Semele,

Hello, I hope I'm not bothering you.

‘You are.’

I admired your shop and your staff so much! Working at your shop seems like such an honor.

‘This fake ass bitch.’

I was wondering how I can apply for a job there. I would like to work closer with the best fashion designers in the east coast, and you are deserving of the title.

‘Whaaaaaaat?!’

Please email me back at dearrawashington@gmail.com

~ With love, De’arra Washington

It was dead silent for the next minute and a half. She talks shit about your shop and then wants paid employment here the next day? You had seen all of it. ‘Maybe this can be helpful?’ With this influx of orders, you had been putting your staff through overtime. Maybe one more person could lighten the load for them. You didn't like the idea of her working at your shop based on what you had heard, but if she was offering help, you were going to give her a chance. You clicked the three dots and selected reply and typed a short response.

Hello,

Thank you. Much appreciated. Could you send in a resume please, so that I can look at your work experience?

~ Y/N Semele

“What the hell are you doing?” Madison looks at you with wide eyes. “Calm down, I don't plan to employ her, I just want to see if she’s any good. I already have another person who wants to work here that has a good resume.”

RING RING

Your phone buzzes loud against the counter and an unknown number displays at the top. You pick up the phone to hear a voice you had been waiting to hear all morning. 

“Hello?”

“Hey, it's Mercedes. I’m calling from my personal phone.” Fucking finally. “What happened to 10am?” She chuckled to herself and replied, “Got busy. Do you want the information or not?” “I paid good money, didn't I?” She sighs and says, “Fair.” I settled into the chair and put the phone on speaker. You told Madison to tell the other employees to take their lunch break while you three listened to Mercedes give a rundown on De’arra. She joins back with you and Gio and you tell Mercedes that you're ready.

“Alright. De’arra Washington, daughter of Kenan Johnson. He was one of the richest thiefs in the west coast. Specifically in California and Oregon. He stole everything from pencils to old paintings to jewelry. He was on the run for a while, so he fled to Florida and started his own family business and made that into a family mafia. Here in Florida, he met up with a prostitute and turned her into a housewife and had a baby girl while orchestrating robberies from the comfort of his home. De’arra is all kinds of spoiled. Barely got her high school diploma, and her father bribed the president of Howard University so she could study there. Got into a lot of trouble up there stealing shit.. Who would've guessed. And daddy was there to save her. After 2 years, she decided she didn’t want the college life and desired wealth, like her father and moved back to Florida. Speaking of Kenan, he's been eyeing Roman since he moved down here. That’s probably why De'arra is hanging onto him like a lost child. If I knew anything from my years in this business, I'd guess that they are the family trying to challenge Roman, or disassemble the Anoa’i family.”

“So you’re telling me that I'm dealing with a girl with a case of sticky fingers?” She laughs lightly and says, “Basically.”

! 1 Gmail Notification from dearrawashington@gmail.com

This must be the resume.

Of course! Here is my resume 

resume.pdf

~ With love, De’arra Washington

“Is she emailing you?” Mercedes asks, her tone laced with confusion, understandable though. “Yeah, I'm gonna see what she can do or if she can help me out here at the shop.”

“I've seen her resume before, it's forged. She’s only worked at minimum wage jobs. So anything that has to do with corporate jobs and fashion design is fake as fuck.” ‘What the hell is going on here?!’

“You still gonna give her a chance?” Gio says, reading the fake resume. “She’s not getting a chance, but I'm still gonna let her do a training session today so I can see what she is about.”

2:30 pm

You emailed her back and told her to come here at 2:30 pm to do a training session, which would technically be more like orientation. Both Gio and Madison knew that this could go sideways quickly if she tries something, but they also knew that you weren’t dumb. You knew how to handle yourself in bad situations. And you didn’t let anyone push you around. A red corvette sped across the huge display windows and disappeared into the parking lot on the side of the building. You took a deep breath to prepare yourself for the foolery you were going to face today. You fixed up your desk space and closed the file filled with De’arra’s personal information. 

 You heard the door open and saw two people walking in. “Ms. Semele?” You give her a polite smile and depart from your desk to shake her hand. There she was, wearing a pink crop top stopping right below her breasts and dark ripped jeans with pink butterfly strappy heels. She was hand in hand with someone you didn't know you would see today. 

“Hey Ms. Expert.” 

That made you genuinely smile. “Didn’t think I'd see you here again. Helping out the missus?” He smiles at you and slowly licks his lips, eyes drifting up and down your body. His eyes found yours and he focused all of his attention on you. “Yeah, I said I was gonna take care of her, and imma do just that.” De’arra gushes and latches onto his arm, but he doesn't budge; he keeps his eyes on you, smirking at you, adding the cherry on top. ‘Was he saying that to me?’ You briefly remember the last time you two spoke in person, and it seems like he was going to make good on his words. 

“Oh good, you're here, you can put your stuff in the faculty room. That ok Y/N?” Gio says walking in from the factory downstairs. “Yeah that’s fine. I need to talk with Roman anyways,” You reply, and Gio gives you a simple head nod. “What do you need to talk to him for?” You look at De’arra and she is already sizing you up. You laughed to yourself. There’s no way she’s really trying to pull these strings right now. “About La Mesa Alta’s annual ball.” You kept it short and sweet. Of course, that's not what you guys were actually going to talk about, but you needed to get her off your back. “Well my family is going to be added to La Mesa Alta too, so I should be a part of this conversation,” De’arra demands. “The only thing you should be a part of is your training session. Give me a second i'll be right there,” You fired back, shutting down her request. He trails behind you, but doesnt get far, due to De’arra’s small hand latching onto his wrist.

“You guys can just talk out here-”

“Hell no.” You were getting sick of this back and forth already. “Well why the hell not?” 

“Because it’s a private conversation about mafia business.” You could feel that she was already catching an attitude. “Well what type of mafia business involves you being in a room with him alone?” ‘This bitch..’ You turned around for the final time, and your face couldn’t hide the fact that you were fed the hell up. “The type of mafia business that doesn't involve you. Come on Roman.” He follows you into the room and closes the door. 

You wipe your hands across your face and catch him looking at you with a sly smirk. “Don’t look at me like that.” He walks closer to you and takes his hand in yours and holds it above your head, twirling you to face away from him. He wraps his arms around your waist from behind. You close your eyes and melt into his touch. You forgot how much you liked his touch. “That was so sexy.” His breath gave you tingles as he talked into the crook of your neck. “You missed me baby?” While he was luring you with his voice, his hands sneakily dipped into the waistband of your sweats. You turned your head to look at him and gently grab his chin. Your eyes shift from his eyes to his lips, and you lean in to kiss him, but his fingers teasing your folds stop you. “I didn't hear an answer.” He was already making you melt, and you were loving every single second of it. “Y-yes baby I missed you.” He was teasing you, getting close to your lips and then pulling away while rubbing at your sensitive clit. You couldn't stand it. You pull his chin closer to you, trying your hardest to kiss him, but he keeps pulling away still.

“Please baby, kiss me.” You wanted to feel his lips on yours so badly. Without warning his right hand clasps around your neck and finally attaches his lips to yours. His left hand was hard at work, pinching and applying pressure to your clit, while both of your tongues are fighting for dominance. You grind your hips against his hand, giving up on dominance for the time being and letting him take over. He takes his hands off of your neck to tug your tube top down to your waist, freeing your breasts. You moan into his mouth, feeling his warm hands grab at your breasts and the pressure building up between your legs. “Fuck baby that feels so goo-”

BANG BANG BANG

“De’arra decided she doesn't want to do her training session. She’s going to file a complaint to La Mesa Alta to have your shop shut down.”

‘Are you fucking serious?’

help me what do i do😭😭 i filled the laylo thing for both my email and mobile number and the website said to check my mail and messages respectively for the confirmation but i never recieved one. my country is not one im confident if they will even tour (if its even a tour) so i dont even know if tickets will be available here so idk if the thing is even supposed to work here. but like they did come here for ii so i kinda have hope its my only chance to ever see them live and i dont wanna have to miss that coz i missed the tour tickets announcement help mee this is kinda stressing me out and i get fomo all the time but i dont want fomo over this too

okay, breathe.

1) check spam. refresh it, just in case.

2) if there's nothing in your spam folder, try to go on Laylo website with VPN turned on. and enter your email again. or maybe enter an email that you didn't try with this thing before. if you haven't done this before, create a new email on gmail specifically. i heard that helped a few people. (although i don't think the issue is in the domain. but since there's no confirmation, try gmail.)

3) if it doesn't help, i can offer you to ask someone else to enter your email (like i did for my friend). i would offer my help, but only if you trust me with your email address. no passwords, no anything. just the address. because it can be a location thing. but it can also be a stupid glitch when they were changing their emails in Laylo's system.

and it looks like Laylo doesn't answer their emails when you try to contact them about not receiving anything. so, that's fun.

New game: Drop Google Chrome's market share 2023.

Why? Monopolies are bad and that's what's gonna happen if things don't even out a bit.

Why is it bad if Google has a monopoly? Because google already tracks the shit out of you, that's why. They collect and market your data. Yes, even in incognito mode. Just because your search history isn't being saved, doesn't mean google hasn't logged away where you've been or what you've searched for their own purposes. Imagine what more they'll do if the competition snuffs out?

"But I'll use an ad-blocker. I'm good." Not on Chrome you won't, because they're killing off ad-blockers in 2023, literally as soon as January- that's less than two months away. Gee... I wonder why they'd be doing that...

I recommend Firefox.

I switched a couple months ago and it's seriously so good.

It takes literal minutes to switch, you can import your bookmarks, passwords, browsing history, and even your open tabs from chrome to firefox.

Oh- and they don't collect and market your data.

And the extensions are amazing:

uBlock Origin blocks ads, trackers, coin miners, popups, etc. Hate those annoying ads before YouTube videos? I haven't had one since installing- and it literally never occurred to me for some reason that ad blockers would work on YouTube too. (It also got rid of the ads on tumblr, which I also didn't expect to happen)

There's Auto Tab Discard for people like me who always have a ton of tabs open. It puts your inactive tabs to sleep (but doesn't close them! important!) to help save memory and battery

Facebook Container keeps Facebook from tracking you around the web. (Includes Insta and Facebook messenger)

There's Image Search Options, for when you want to properly credit an artist, or need to find the source of an image. You just right-click on the image and it gives you a list of 10+ top reverse image search engines to click on, and when you click one it automatically plugs the image into the search!

Youtube Audio saves you bandwidth and battery when you just want audio from YouTube (aka: to use Youtube as a music streaming service or listening to narration videos/podcasts)

Then of course there's XKit Rewritten, which I'm sure you'll already recognize as the thing that enhances the tumblr experience.

And there's so many others!

And I get it if you don't like change, and don't wanna deal if the browser appearance is either different than you're used to, or worse- ugly. I get it, I do. But the good news is if the only thing holding you back is that you've gotten used to how Chrome looks, Firefox Dark theme is literally so similar I didn't even notice the difference when I switched. (And I imagine the same is true of the light theme) There's also literally a whole library of themes if you want a more customized look!

And some of you might be thinking "But I have a google account! GMail, Drive- Everything! Won't I have to stop using all that if I switch?" NOPE. Being logged into Google isn't the same as being logged into Chrome. You can log right into Google on Firefox same as you would on any other browser and your experience with your mail, drive, etc. will be just the same as if you were in Chrome, just without the collecting and marketing of your data. (That reminds me, There's also extensions to prevent google from tracking you as well, like "Don't track me Google" and "Google Container")

But seriously, Firefox is so great. Not only does it not track you and market your data, it's genuinely just a better experience than Chrome.

If you've been putting off switching, consider this your sign to do it.

[toxartsukagakas]

Heya!

Sorry if this is a general ukugaka problem and not your area of expertise but when yes man tries to check my email it says "darn! It wont let me access your email, sorry :]" and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix it

Howdy! Yeah this is more of an overall SSP issue, but if you're using Gmail, then this guide here: [link] should detail how to setup app passwords, and this guide on ukagakadreamteam's tumblr: [link] shows where the app password goes, and that's probably why it's not letting SSP access your email. There's also a fuller explanation here: [link] for setting up email thru SSP. Hopefully this helps!

Good Omens fans! Here is a (super unofficial) checklist of ways to put pressure on the studios to renew Good Omens for a season 3 and (hopefully) to help convince them come back to the table for ending strikes asap. Note: US streaming referenced, but replace Amazon w your *official* local streaming if relevant.

Watch Season 2 ALL the way through (multiple times if possible) ESPECIALLY within the next week and a half. Keep it playing in the background (muted should be fine, but if you’re unsure, mute it on your device-side instead of in the app). Play it on multiple devices and on multiple accounts. Do NOT pirate it if at ALL possible in this period of time. Every view counts!

If you have friends who have Amazon Prime, ask them to stream it all the way through (in the next week and a half!), too. If they haven’t seen Season 1, watching S1 helps too! They don’t have to even actually watch it, just let it play through. Call in those outstanding favors! Offer to help them out w something else later in exchange.

If you have friends who have *never* had Amazon Prime, have them sign up for the free trial and have the FIRST thing they stream be both Season 1-2 of Good Omens. New viewers like this are worth extra in Prime’s eyes bc they see them as a potential new source of income! Now is the time to help your technologically challenged aunt set up streaming for the first time!

If you want merch, buy official merch! Idk how much this impacts their decisions, but it can’t hurt to show them there’s demand for it.

Make an IMDb account (you can link w gmail or other accounts so there’s no new password to remember) and rate the show! Make sure you verify your account (there are simple instructions online), rate Good Omens S1 and S2 as a whole *and* rate each of the episodes individually! If possible, leave a glowingly positive review! Also, go through and rate/review a handful of other things so it doesn’t look like you ONLY did it for this one show (might I suggest OFMD and other positive queer media?). If you can’t leave a review of your own, skim through the most recent reviews left by other people and up-vote the positive ones/down-vote the negative ones (‘this review was/was not helpful’).

Thanks and good luck!!

Disclaimer: I am NOT an expert, so forgive me for mistakes, but if I have significantly misrepresented/misunderstood something, please let me know and I’ll try to address it.

Feel free to add to this list or distribute it elsewhere, if you think it could be helpful! I know there are petitions and trending initiatives planned as well, so keep an eye out for those too. ❤️ Let’s get that Season 3!!!

[minty-rbs]

Ack. So I used my school google account for my main @minty-bubblegum . I never thought to change the Gmail hooked to it or to set an email and password. So now I'm locked out. I have no idea what to do and I'm stressing really bad bc I do not want to lose my blog and I can't access it to change my email. For now I will be alternating between this blog, @mintys-losthermarbles and basically all my spam reblog accounts. If anyone knows how to contact support of such please help :((

hey folks, just another update on my situation:

the good news is i have a new gmail and access to the phone/internet again (!) and most of my important stuff is safe. the bad news is i can't get into my old gmail and the scammer got my IP banned on discord. working to resolve both issues but it's a slow process. i just wanna say a giant thank you to everybody who reached out. it sounds cliche but it really helps knowing that i'm not alone and it's seriously devastating how often this happens.

i can't say it enough but please stay safe, folks. keep track of all your passwords and personal info. if somebody tries to threaten you with the fbi or legal action if you don't hand them over, block and report them immediately. my scammer was posing as a discord security agent and i later learned that discord security doesn't contact you via one on one calls but email. it would've been nice to know that forty-eight hours ago but...yeah. hard lesson learned.

meanwhile, i have to work tomorrow and monday but i'm gonna try to do some drafts because writing has always been really therapeutic. also thinking about dropping some muses that i haven't written in a while. timon, sally, fawn, and the wolves are definitely staying but still debating about the others. my current muse list is attached to the old gmail and i gotta update that too. just taking it one step at a time and hope everybody else is having a good weekend. 💛

Rant incoming

WHY IS TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT SO GODDAMM DIFFICULT I SWEAR TO GOD.

So. I want to play minecraft online. I don't really use my Microsoft account often but I figure it should be fine. I get signed up for PS Plus, I pay my £6.99, and now I just have to link my Microsoft.

I do the link. I submit the code, then the email, then the password...then the code again then the email then the password and so on so forth until the link expires.

I make a new Microsoft account, as suggested, and it actually seems to be getting somewhere. Until the game is like "Oh you have to sign into the account linked with your game. Yknow, Jyan, which we can remember the name of but not your freaking details".

So I try that. Get in a loop again because it's that outlook email. I sign into Gmail outlook, everything looks fine. I have a string of very recent emails from Amazon about a refund so I know my email *works* at least.

But log in still won't work. So I look on the Microsoft question thing for answers and someone has had the loop issue. There's a link about account recovery. I'm desperate, I mean what the hell nothing else is working, so I use that link. They ask for an alternative email to send me a confirmation where they explain that I did not give them enough details and, as a really really kind courtesy (BECAUSE THATS HOW THEY PHRASED THIS, LIKE IT WAS A COURTESY) they've locked me out of my account :). Yay :). Because they take security reallllly seriously. Except they haven't Because I can still access my emails on the Gmail app but still can't do anything else.

By the way, did you know once you link a Microsoft account to a ps4 account you can NEVER UNLINK AND RELINK A NEW ONE?! Why. What do you GAIN Microsoft. Oh also because ps plus is a paid service they really hate you using it on other accounts of the same ps4 device or really any online features on any account other than the main one. Because what.

So clearly my issue is too complicated for online articles. I've tried and got no where, in any case worse. Let's try reddit - SYKE ALL THE BOTS RUINED REDDIT AND I CANT ACCESS ANY TECH SUPPORT GROUPS TO ASK QUESTIONS MYSELF UNLESS I GET SO MUCH KARMA. GREAT.

So. Microsoft tech support. Please be a good - OH OF COURSE ITS NOT

To summarise this amazinggggg service

1 - CAN'T FIND A RELIABLE NUMBER BECAUSE OF THE SCAMS

1.5 - Google AI summarise RECOMMENDED ME A SCAM NUMBER AS THE OFFICIAL ONE

2 - I can't find anywhere where I can submit a text complaint.

3 - All the search bars just take me to pre written articles as if I haven't read enougj

4 - THEY THEN OFFER ME A PAIDDDDD SERVICE TO "GET FIRST IN LINE FOR GPT TO SOLVE MY ISSUE"

What. The actual. Fuck.

I just want to talk to a human who knows something PLEASE. No none of the articles have helped. No I don't want AI to tell me, it has PROVEN its USELESSNESS. I just wanna talk yo a freaking human, preferably over the phone, who can tell me what to do or initiate some stiff themself because clearly the design has self imploded and IM JUST SO FREAKING FRUSTRATED IM SAT HERE WITH £7 OF A WORTHLESS SUBSCRIPTION AND NO RELIABLE TECH SUPPORT TO FIX IT ALL BECAUSE EMAIL BROKE BUT NOT REALLY.

And that doesn't even BEGIN to worry about whether I'm gonna be able to get my money back on this completely useless service.

So I'm turning to Tumblr. What's tumblrs tech support like??? I don't know, maybe there's a genius out there SOMEWHERE. Because clearly I can't use reddit, thanks barrier to entry :/ and I can't just ring up a human who can actually listen to my words with the nuances that don't fit into the fucking booklet.

If anyone knows anything that could help, please leave your wisdom here I'm frustrated and desperate and don't wanna lose £7 on something I can't even use.

Sweet Treats AU Masterlist

Shameless fucking and allusions to violence.

Please let me know what you think <3

🍬🍬🍬

The sting of Sam’s hand radiates through your ass, the slapping of flesh underlines his shallow breaths and your own stray groans. You grip the top of the couch as your knee sinks between the cushions, his hand curled around your shoulder as he spanks you again, fucking you harder. You bite down and hold back your voice as he ruts wildly.

“Sugar, you gonna be sweet for me now?” He huffs as his hand hooks up to cup your chest, his hips slamming decisively against your ass, “hmm? I don’t like it when you talk back like that–”

A night and half a day later, you’re still atoning for your sharp tongue. You roll your eyes back and swallow down your anger. Let him get it out. He’ll fuck himself stupid and you’ll go back to pretending he isn’t there.

“Yeah, you got me fucked up,” he hammers into you as he leans in, hooking his thick arm around your neck as his other hand grasps the couch next to yours, “you gonna make me–”

“Hurry up and blow,” Bucky snarls and your head pops up as two figures watch from the wide archway, “we gotta talk.”

“What the–” you start but Sam snuffs out your voice with his bicep.

“Jesus,” he snarls and slams into you, shuddering as he cums deep inside you, twitching until he’s empty.

You turn your face down as you try to cover your chest as it peeks out over the top of the cushions. You notice how Steve ogles you openly, his left eye blackened around the socket as the other man wears a split lip. What the fuck happened to them?

“Go on, sugar, the boys have got business,” Sam slides out of you and his cum drips down your thigh in a gush of humiliation. He grabs the throw blanket and throws it at you as he walks around shamelessly, “you guys look rough, I assume you made up.”

You quickly cover yourself and hurry out of the room. As you pass Steve, he lets out a willowy breathe and his fingers tickle the blanket as you feel his gaze on you.

“Knocked some sense into each other,” Bucky intones as you snatch your phone as you pass the table by the bannister and rush up the stairs.

“Knocked each other around but couldn’t knock before letting yourself in,” Sam challenges and grunt, his weight flopping into a chair. “What’s up?”

You stay at the top of the stairs as you listen. The sight of the men worries you. They obviously fought someone, by their comments, each other.

“We did, you didn’t answer,” Steve snickers, “and who can blame you?”

“What do you want?” Sam undercuts as you tap your thumb on your phone, half-listening as you scroll through your notifs. There’s an email from Treats, the site you used to cam for. You hadn’t done that in months, since him.

“Girls are gone.”

You lift your chin and hold in your breath. What?

“Gone?” Sam echoes, “what does that mean?”

“They’re gone. Booked it while we dealt with things.”

Sam chortles, “you mean while you idiots bashed each other’s heads in.”

“Something like that,” Steve mutters.

You hit on your Gmail and the email floats at the top; ‘you have a 💌 on Treats!’. The men’s voices rumble in the back of your head as you hit the link and open the browser. You key in your password, resigned to another creep wondering why your schedule is closed.

‘ChocolateDove15 has sent you a private message. Accept?’

You hesitate and listen, “we gotta find them. They didn’t take anything so it won’t be that hard.”

Shit. This isn’t a coincidence. You accept and open the chat. Several bubbles pop up.

‘No clothes, no money. Scared.’

‘At High Street Library till three. Have to keep moving.’

‘If you can help, please.’

You slowly push away from the wall as you quickly delete the chat and sign out. You go back to your inbox and delete the message. You can’t take the phone with you. No, that’s too easy for them. 

You put the phone in the top drawer of the dresser as you enter the bedroom and grab some clothes. You dress before shoving a backpack full of clothes, both yours and Sam’s, practical things. You leave your wallet but take your credit card. Hit the ATM at the corner then toss the card.

You move carefully, alert for any noise from downstairs. You zip up the bag and pull on a loose hoodie over the first one. They’ll be a camera at the ATM, you’ll dump the hoodie with the card to throw them off.

You listen at the bedroom door. You can barely decipher their words, “they don’t have anyone. Coco’s mom, maybe but she’s not in the city…”

You keep the latch from clicking and quickly rush across the room, carrying a pair of tennis shoes in your hand. You slide up the window and take a breath of the fresh air. If Coco and Birdy can run, you can too. You just gotta get to High Street by three.

hey probably dumb question but i’m a new writer on tumblr what do you write your fics on (like notes, files, idk🤷🏻‍♀️) thank you!! i love your work btw!🌸🌸🌸💗💗🥰

Hi! That's not a dumb question at all!

I think it will always depend on what works best for you based on how you write but I primarily use Google Docs for a few reasons.

Writing/Editing Versatility - For the most part I write on my computer but occasionally I'll write or edit in the google docs app on my phone. It's seamless and fast to switch between the two. If I have a few spare minutes I can pop open the app on my phone and make edits and then when I check back on my desktop, it's all there so I feel like it really helps in an on the go sort of way.

Backups Worry Free - You never have to worry about "saving" in google docs. It does it every few seconds or basically when it sees you take a break from typing. My old computer crashed and died pretty violently about maybe six months after I started on tumblr and I lost all my original backups, including other original docs I had on my computer. Thankfully I do save off to an external hard drive every so often but it's annoying to remember to do that. You computer dies? Phone breaks? Google docs is tied to your email so as long as you remember your password, you can always get your stuff back

Google Docs space is pretty big (and free) - Tying into backups, google gives you quite a bit of space to use for free. Trust me, I have hundreds and hundreds of docs, some pretty freaking long and I'm nowhere close to nearing the cap. Google Docs is also free to use and you only need a gmail to use it.

Copy/Paste into Tumblr isn't too bad - Here's the one non-writers might not realize. Tumblr isn't the friendliest when it comes to pasting in text you wrote elsewhere. Often writers need to re-format (and I can tell you that's super fun on lengthy fics). Google docs generally copies pretty good though. The only thing it gets hung up on is it doesn't include "breaks" or when you add spaces when you paste over but that's typically pretty easy to correct.

I know quite a few writers use google docs for these reasons but ultimately use what feels best to you!

I'm a little stupid, how exactly do you set up your email? I looked up SSP email preferences and all I got were military veteran resources 😭

No worries! You're not stupid I promise, it took me awhile to figure out how to actually set up the email stuff for ghosts/ SSP as well. When you have a ghost open you'll right click them to bring up SSP's menu, and then 'Options' and then 'Preferences'. The menu for configuring email setup is under the 'POP menu on the sidebar of the preferences panel. At the bottom of the page is an 'add' button, and that will pull up a menu for you to fill out. Ukagakadreamteam's tumblr outlines what to fill out on the screen it pulls up in this post.

In addition to that, you'll need to know the POP address for your email service- I've only really worked with GMAIL before, so I know the POP settings for them can be found here, and if you use other email services, searching the email provider's name with 'POP settings' should bring up what you need.

Lastly as the post I linked from ukagakadreamteam mentions, if you have gmail you'll have to set up an app password, and google has a guide for it here. I haven't really used any other email services in awhile so I'm not sure if there's quirks that will be present with those that aren't there but if what I've described here doesn't work feel free to DM me and I can see if I can help troubleshoot further!
