It was a party atmosphere at multiple Santa Clara Unified School District schools last week as they celebrated the milestone class of 2024. “This was the first class that was here the whole time after COVID pandemic, and we are looking forward to the return to normalcy that comes with that. It feels more like school than it has for quite a few years,” said Santa Clara High School (SCHS) Principal Gregory Shelby. Read complete news at svvoice.com.

80s imagine crossover world
*might want to do more stories within this idea so I thought I’d post the blueprint type thing first*
- Living with your mum in Hawkins and becoming best friends with Eddie (later Steve, Nancy, Robin and Jonathon)
- On summer holidays you go to San Dimas to see your grandparents where you become good friends with Bill and Ted
- When you graduate high school you decide to do a solo trip to Santa Clara, staying with family friends the Emerson’s, where you meet Dwayne, Marko, David and Paul
- One day Lucy goes away for a weekend so The Lost Boys decide to convince you to get some friends over and have a party at the house
- Hawkins crew is a bit skepticism of the lost boys but Bill and Ted think they’re cool
- Eddie and Steve get along well with Bill and Ted, especially Eddie
- Eddie gets really defensive when the boys try to flirt with you. He also thinks Bill and Ted are flirting with you but turns out they just call you ‘babe’
- Steve, Eddie, Bill and Ted decide to stick around after the party
- Bill and Ted want to go to the beach, Steve and Eddie want to spend time with you and watch out for the boys
- When Sammy accuses his brother of being a vampire in front of the boys, Bill and Ted have a theoretical discussion about it. Paul and Marko join in but unknowing to the others they’re being serious. It’s like the four of them sharing a brain cell
- Sharing childhood stories between Eddie, Bill and Ted

by Alana Goodman
The complaint says Jewish and Israeli students in Santa Clara have been "subjected to repeated harassment, intimidation, marginalization, and discrimination based on their Jewish ancestry since at least 2023." The district has "allowed an egregiously hostile environment to fester for its Jewish and Israeli students," said Jenna Statfeld Harris, senior counsel and K-12 specialist at StandWithUs Saidoff Legal department, in a statement.
The Turkish video in question showed photos of Jewish Holocaust victims juxtaposed with photos from Gaza, including "untraceable" images of children with Arabic writing on their arms that the segment compared to the tattoos Nazis branded on concentration camp victims. It also featured an interview with a Holocaust survivor who accused Israel of "killing children" and said she was "ashamed" of being Jewish.
"I am actually ashamed sometimes to acknowledge that I belong to the tribe that is killing innocent people," said the woman in the video.
The same teacher, who is still teaching at the school, also distributed classroom materials to her 10th grade class to raise "awareness" about Israel as an "oppressive apartheid state" that is pursuing a "genocide," according to the complaint.
In a separate case, another teacher equated Hamas’s hostage-taking with Israel arresting terrorists. An Israeli student who complained faced "bullying" from other students in the class, who made "loud statements like, ‘I don’t want to sit next to this Zionist.’"
The complaint also notes that a "Multicultural Festival" at a Santa Clara high school featured a map of "Palestine" superimposed over the entire country of Israel, and students were encouraged to get a mock passport stamp from the booth that read "Free Palestine." An Israeli flag was also stolen from the school’s display of national flags.

Christmas Horror Kids Tournament
Because this isn't the Hunger Games, the kids are in competition but not in direct opposition to each other. Basically: there's some big monster/villain threatening their holiday, which of these main characters is not just surviving but is coming out on top the fastest?
Propaganda for each contender (and spoilers for all movies mentioned) under the cut:
Pietari: fears neither God nor death nor army of feral elves. good at keeping calm under pressure and making plans on the fly. carries a gun around the whole movie but never actually uses it, so not sure how well he could shoot. his actor was 11 when the movie came out but I think he's supposed to be a few years younger?
Luke: horrific demon child, zero moral limits so long as he gets what he wants, -5000/10 would not recommend babysitting. extremely good planner, but vulnerable to overlooking small details that ruin him. about 12: very smart but fairly immature for his age. has to be reminded not to kill his competition this time.
Thomas: literally just wanted to stay home and play trains with his grandpa, but now he's got to defend them both from a killer Santa. models himself after action movie heroes and is so good at Home Alone-ing his house that his director tried to sue for plagiarism. about 10-11 years old?
Anna: would be better with her friends to help her, but is pretty damn capable of making it in the zombie apocalypse on her own. not sure exactly how old she's supposed to be, since I'm not clear on how the New Zealand school system works, but she's an older teenager.
Billy: definitely has his wits closer about him than his dad does, that's for fucking sure. does get tricked into creating gremlins, but you know what, who would have expected them to have fucked with his clock? successfully takes on and kills an army of gremlins, albeit with help. probably the oldest competitor here since he's out of high school (?)
Max: definitely willing to go to bat for the Christmas spirit, and to put his own life on the line to protect his family, but is pretty severely lacking in strength or savvy. is good at dodging an army of killer toys, but might not do so well without a bunch of relatives around to also be targets. like Pietari, his actor was 12 but I think he's supposed to be a bit younger.
Trudy: ngl, might be a little weak in solo competition, since she's maybe 7-8 years old and so relies a lot on Santa the one-man army. but she's clever, has exactly zero fear of hardened criminals with machine guns, and is very good at turning Home Alone traps exactly as deadly as they should be.
Winnie: the most Final Girl (TM) out of all the competitors imho. learns very quickly how to improvise and use whatever's handy as a weapon, and while she's also best with a partner to distract an opponent, can handle herself very competently in a physical fight. about 17?
Samantha and Clara: actually, fuck Billy, does Clara even count as a kid at all, being an ancient demon in the form of a child? has telekinetic powers and is good at Breaking Speeches, but is bound by being sealed in the school and unable to kill her enemies herself. Samantha is a pretty normal middle schooler (?), but also has the guts to go face a cult of killers with an axe when she could have run away and saved herself, so don't count her out.
Kevin: is Home Alone a horror movie? no. could I possibly exclude the king, the champion, the future Jigsaw apprentice? also no. smart and absolutely cold-blooded when he needs to be, he's excellent at fending enemies off from a distance, but it's game over for him if he's actually caught.
#it's the season for christmas horror so i've been thinking#christmas#horror#better watch out#rare exports#dial code santa claus#anna and the apocalypse#gremlins#krampus#violent night#it's a wonderful knife#the sacrifice game#home alone#kaen asks

Books From a Non-Human Perspective
I've seen discussions on books going around the alterhuman community, and it caused me to recall some of my own favorite books from a non-human perspective. The most memorable of these were from a non-human perspective, and focused more on nonhuman existence, than supernatural or fantastical elements.
I've noticed that I tend towards books that are more realistic- not to say that I only read realistic books, but many of the stories I like are focused on the animal's point of view, aren't really shapeshifting focused, and are more focused on being "practically nonhuman". Like, you'll see what I mean if you check out the books 😉
(I've added descriptions and images from the books to the post, all credit goes to Google/Amazon.)
Child of the Wolves - Elizabeth Hall
Granite, a Siberian husky puppy, is all alone in the Alaskan forest after escaping from his kennel. Each moment of his life is threatened until Snowdrift, a great white wolf, welcomes him into a wolf pack. But Granite must earn his place among the wolf tribe by facing vicious attacks from the other wolves, the human wolf hunters, and the constant challenges of the frozen forest.

Lexi's Tale - Johanna Hurwitz
Can Lexi, the street-smart squirrel and his friend PeeWee, a well-read guinea pig, make a difference in the life of a man living hungry and friendless in Central Park?

The Werewolf Club and the Magic Pretzel (series) - Daniel and Jill Pinkwater
Everyone knows people turn into werewolves if they are bitten by a werewolf, but did you know you can turn into a werewolf by:
1.Thinking about werewolves
2.Reading a book like this one
3.For no reason at all
Norman Gnormal didn’t know this until someone signed him up for the Werewolf Club at school. Raised as a puppy (he’s pretty sure his parents wanted a dog but got him instead), he never quite fit in with most kids at school, who don’t growl at people or dig holes in the lawn. But in the Werewolf Club he finds home with other kids who like running on all fours and howling at the moon.
When the club learns that their teacher has been cursed, the only way to cure him is with Alexander the Great’s magic pretzel. But will the club be able to find the pretzel? And can Norman, the only non-werewolf in the club, keep up?
Lionboy (series) - Zizou Corder
When his parents are kidnapped, what's ten-year-old Charlie Ashanti to do? Rescue them, that's what! He doesn't know who has taken his parents, or why. But he does know that one special talent will aid him on his journey--his amazing ability to speak Cat. Charlie calls on his clever feline friends--from stray city cats to magnificent caged lions--for help. With them by his side, Charlie uses wit and courage to try to find his parents before it's too late.

The Call of the Wild - Jack London
The Call of the Wild is a novel by Jack London published in 1903. The story is set in the Yukon during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush—a period when strong sled dogs were in high demand. The novel's central character is a dog named Buck, a domesticated dog living at a ranch in the Santa Clara valley of California as the story opens.
Stolen from his home and sold into the brutal existence of an Alaskan sled dog, he reverts to atavistic traits. Buck is forced to adjust to, and survive, cruel treatments and fight to dominate other dogs in a harsh climate. Eventually he sheds the veneer of civilization, relying on primordial instincts and lessons he learns, to emerge as a leader in the wild. London lived for most of a year in the Yukon collecting material for the book.
The story was serialized in the Saturday Evening Post in the summer of 1903; a month later it was released in book form. The novel’s great popularity and success made a reputation for London. Much of its appeal derives from the simplicity with which London presents the themes in an almost mythical form. As early as 1908 the story was adapted to film and it has since seen several more cinematic adaptations.

White Fang- Jack London
White Fang is a novel by American author Jack London (1876–1916) — and the name of the book's eponymous character, a wild wolfdog. First serialized in Outing magazine, it was published in 1906. The story takes place in Yukon Territory, Canada, during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush and details White Fang's journey to domestication. It is a companion novel (and a thematic mirror) to London's best-known work, The Call of the Wild, which is about a kidnapped, domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild. Much of White Fang is written from the viewpoint of the titular canine character, enabling London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans. White Fang examines the violent world of wild animals and the equally violent world of humans. The book also explores complex themes including morality and redemption.
Return of the Wolf - Dorothy Hinshaw Patent
Clarion author Dorothy Hinshaw Patent is well known and highly respected for her natural history books. "Return of the Wolf," her first work of fiction, draws on her extensive knowledge of wolf behavior, based on first-hand observation. In the course of a year, Sedra, a young female wolf, establishes her own territory, finds a mate, and begins a new wolf pack. Quick-paced, dramatic, and told from the wolf's point of view, this story contains fascinating details of wolves' life in the wild: their communication, the birth and training of pups, and the pack's strategies for hunting and survival.

Frightful's Mountain - Jean Craighead George
Sam Gribley has been told that it is illegal to harbor an endangered bird, so when his beloved falcon, Frightful, comes home, he has to let her go. But Frightful doesn’t know how to live alone in the wild. She can’t feed herself, mate, brood chicks, or migrate. Frightful struggles to survive and learns to enjoy her new freedom. But she feels a bond with Sam that can never be broken, and more than anything else, she wants to return to him.

Runt - Marion Dane Bauer
DEEP IN THE Minnesota forest, where only the strong survive, four regular-sized pups—Leader, Sniffer, Runner, and Thinker—are pushed into the world. Then one last, very small pup is born into the wolf pack. He is called Runt.
From the very start, Runt struggles in the harsh wild world of the wolves. He tries learning along with his brothers and sisters, but makes serious mistakes. It’s hard pleasing his father, King, and the other wolves. If only Runt could prove himself to his powerful father and family. . . .

The Puppy Sister - S. E. Hilton
Nick and his parents get more than they bargained for when their newly adopted puppy, Aleasha, decides she'll have more fun with her new "family" if she becomes human, too. So begins a laugh-out-loud adventure told from Aleasha's point of view, about her transformation from puppy to girl.

Alien in a Bottle - Kathy Mackel
If Dinn Tauro hadn't shot Tagg Orion off the Inter-Dimensional Wheel, Tagg and his sidekick, Squeeto, would never have crashed on that nowhere planet called Earth. And Sean Winger would never have found the two extraterrestrials in a bottle on the beach.
Without the aliens Sean wouldn't have a hope of entering a glass sculpture in the Hollis Art Fair -- and winning a scholarship. That's all Sean really wants in this world. Sean just needs two things -- glass and fire. He knows his parents won't help. So when Tagg offers Sean three wishes in exchange for protecting him from Dinn Tauro, how can Sean refuse?
Could two extraterrestrials really hold the answers to Sean's yearnings? Or are they only taking him on an extraterrestrial ride?

We3 (comic) - Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly
Writer Grant Morrison and artist Frank Quitely deliver the emotional journey of WE3 - three house pets weaponized for lethal combat by the government - as they search for "home" and ward off the shadowy agency that created them.
With nervous systems amplified to match their terrifying mechanical exoskeletons, the members of Animal Weapon 3 (WE3) have the firepower of a battalion between them. But they are just the program's prototypes, and now that their testing is complete, they're slated to be permanently "decommissioned," causing them to seize their one chance to make a desperate run for freedom. Relentlessly pursued by their makers, the WE3 team must navigate a frightening and confusing world where their instincts and heightened abilities make them as much a threat as those hunting them - but a world, nonetheless, in which somewhere there is something called "home."

Canyon country. Canyon High School is just above the middle of the picture, slightly skewed to the right. Above that is Plum Canyon (go figure, eh?). Below the edge of the Santa Clara wash and the looping road is a very very long freeway on/off ramp (maybe half a mile long).
Sierra Pelona mountains are in the background.

WENDY EMERSON
intro.

played by heather langenkamp
❝ Loving something means having something to lose.❞
WENDY "WINNIE" EMERSON
born to lucy emerson, her only daughter and the middle child of the emerson siblings. wendy is only a year younger to her brother michael and two years older than her brother sam.
── .✦ Wendy had never been close with her workaholic father, preferring to cling to her mother's legs and follow Michael around their simple three-bedroom house in the copper state, Arizona. Wendy has always been a rather reserved child, preferring to watch from the sidelines. That being said, she was far from being shy, her spunky side only ever came out around the people she was most comfortable with.
── .✦ Wendy’s father rather be stuck slaving away at work then spend any amount of time with his wife or kids. This resulted in all three of the Emerson siblings to have a close relationship with their mother, Lucy. Though, Lucy could hardly complain. Lucy had been ecstatic when she found out she was having a girl, being an only child, Lucy could hardly wait until her baby girl was born.
── .✦ Michael wouldn’t admit it out loud but for most of his life, at least up to the age of sixteen, he thoroughly enjoyed Wendy essentially being his little shadow, following him around ever where. Yeah, he had friends, but his best friend would always be his little sister. Wendy always thought it was amusing when people assumed her and Michael were twins. She takes pride in teasing both her brothers, but especially enjoys teasing Michael.
── .✦ Wendy doesn't remember Sam's birth, but her first memory of him is when he had gotten super sick at the age of two, he had projectile vomit all over her brand-new coloring book that she had barely started. For all her life, Wendy has shared a room with Sam. They both usually kept their peace, but all hell would break out when Sam would start blasting his music in their shared space. And don’t get Sam started on how much he hated when she would spray “gallons” of her cheap girly perfume in the morning before school.
── .✦ Wendy had joined her high school swim team in her freshman year. She didn't have many friends but had grown to care for all the girls on her small swim team. She never imagined that in her junior year of high school that her parents would finalize their divorce.
Santa Carla Here We Come
── .✦ Wendy was filled with both anticipation and dread, swirling in her gut. She wasn’t surprised about the divorce, not one bit, what go her was her mother announcing that they would uproot their lives and move into their Grandpa’s abode on the hillside of Santa Clara, California. Stuck in a stuffy car next to her brooding older brother. Wendy awaited for how her life would play out once they reached Santa Carla.

Local school districts are speaking out in support of their immigrant communities as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement conducts raids in San Jose. With San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan confirming ICE activity on Monday, school districts are taking action to make sure their undocumented students feel safe coming to school despite the threat of deportation. Some districts are making commitments to keep ICE off their campuses, with others creating resources and offering immigrant rights training to staff, students and their families. Santa Clara County is home to more than 134,000 undocumented immigrants.
Berryessa Union School District has created an immigration support resources page on its website featuring information on people’s rights and links to the Santa Clara County Office of Immigration Relations, county Office of Education, California Attorney General, Immigrant Legal Resource Center and Immigrant Defense Project.
Trustee Hugo Jiménez said undocumented families are scared. He said the district will follow guidelines provided by the state attorney general’s office and county office of education. Schools are instructed to contact district staff if ICE agents show up. “(Parents) shouldn’t have to worry about sending their kids to school,” Jiménez told San José Spotlight. “We’ll do our best to protect their rights. Our responsibility as school districts, educators, is to make sure students have a safe environment they can go to and focus on learning.”
ICE, which has a Morgan Hill field office, has been increasing its focus on undocumented immigrants since President Donald Trump took office earlier this month — stoking fears of deportation. San Jose and Santa Clara County officials have been working to support residents who may be at risk of deportation.
Numerous school districts have signed on to a Jan. 14 letter from Charles Hinman, interim superintendent of schools for the Santa Clara County Office of Education, stating ICE isn’t allowed on campuses or to receive information about students without a warrant. This includes Berryessa Union, Alum Rock Union, Milpitas Unified, Mount Pleasant Elementary, Mountain View-Los Altos Union High, Morgan Hill Unified and Oak Grove school districts. “As the California county with the largest concentration of immigrant community members, we want to assure Santa Clara County residents that schools will continue to stand firmly in support of students and families no matter their citizenship status,” he wrote. “Immigrant families, including those seeking asylum, contribute to the fabric of our country and schools play a significant role in helping immigrant students adapt and thrive.” San Jose Unified School District and East Side Union High School District — the two largest districts in San Jose — published their own letters affirming support for their immigrant communities. “Many of our students are immigrants and many of our students have families where one or more of their parents are immigrants who might have immigration status related issues,” Glenn Vander Zee, superintendent of East Side Union High School District, wrote in the letter. “The district remains committed to providing a safe and welcoming learning environment for all students, regardless of immigration status.” SJUSD also passed a resolution saying all families, including undocumented and immigrant communities, should feel valued, safe and protected. Trustee Carla Collins said it’s an important statement to make given the times and fear in the community. Training will be available for staff, students and families to know their rights. “You can’t learn when you’re scared,” she said. “We’re trying to make schools as safe as possible.”
San Jose nonprofit Amigos de Guadalupe is working with schools, local governments, community organizations and legal services to coordinate residents’ protection from deportation. The organization is also crafting policy on responding to ICE and educating residents about the Rapid Response Network hotline. Residents can call (408) 290-1144 to report ICE activity and receive assistance. “Everyone living in the United States has basic rights,” Jeremy Barousse, director of policy and organizing for Amigos de Guadalupe, told San José Spotlight. “We have the freedom to assert those rights in case we ever come into contact with an ICE agent. People have the freedom to remain silent and not cooperate if they don’t have any type of signed warrant.”
The Franklin-McKinley School District board unanimously approved a resolution on Jan. 14 to support its immigrant community. The school district will work with union and nonprofit partners to provide immigrant rights training and support for students, staff and families on immigrant rights and advocate at the state and federal levels for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, temporary protective status, refugee settlement programs and civil rights protections. Trustee Rudy Rodriguez said he hopes the resolution provides reassurance to students and families, helping them feel more comfortable and protected in bringing their children to school. “Some parents don’t want to send their children to school,” Rodriguez told San José Spotlight. “Children are afraid to go to school and return home to find their parents have been detained. We want to avoid absences because that will only hurt the children. We want children to come to school and feel that it’s a safe place.”
-- "San Jose school districts won’t comply with ICE" by Lorraine Gabbert for San Jose Spotlight, 30 Jan 2025

plz write a cute celebrini x fem reader 🙏🙏 ur writing is beyond amazing
oooh i've never written specifically for mack before so hopefully this isn't bad 😅
after mack’s face injury, his gf is quick to look after him once the game is done
masterlist
she waited impatiently near the doors of the locker room awaiting her boyfriend's arrival. y/n's mind couldn't stop replaying the horror on her features and everyone else's when they saw the blood trickle down macklin's face after a nasty high stick hit. she knew he was okay because he was right back on the ice once the bleeding stopped, but the image wouldn't shake the girl's brain.
lingering after the game felt so long this time around and y/n wondered if it was just because she was anxious about seeing her boyfriend and properly checking up on him. she swiped through twitter and instagram continuously while video replays of the rookie's hit filled her feeds. she just shut her phone off all together for now, not being able to watch the play anymore.
finally, the players began trickling out. y/n's head popped up, searching for the eyes of macklin in the crowd. she spotted him with will near the middle of the pack and he immediately found her gaze. will sensed that they probably wanted to talk, so he split off from the boy once they got closer, giving a small nod to y/n as he passed.
"hey," macklin began, but was caught off guard when y/n jumped into his arms.
"let me see it," she grabbed ahold of his chin, turning his face to the side to examine the new scar.
"it's really not that bad now. they cleared it up really good," the brunette tried reassuring his girlfriend knowing she probably had a hundred thoughts running through her.
"you scared the shit out of me when i saw all that blood. it looked a lot worse," y/n stepped back, arms crossing over her chest.
macklin frowned at the sudden distance between them, "i'm sorry, baby. i promise i'm fine. see?" he gave his best grin hoping to further prove how he was doing.
"well, if i see wilson, i'm gonna punch him myself," y/n huffed, looking around like she would catch the older player lingering somewhere.
macklin laughed, tugging y/n into his side and kissing the side of her head, "you're so cute when you're upset. i promise i'm fine though. i mean you saw me play afterwards."
"yeah you fucking power played. i guess that was your redemption," the two exchanged a laugh and macklin enjoyed finally pulling a smile from her.
"can i come back to your place tonight?" the boy wondered as they moved themselves closer to the exit.
"i thought that was a given already," y/n chuckled.
macklin went to tell will they were leaving before rushing out of the SAP center so he wouldn't have to do any press. most days he didn't mind, but tonight the boy was itching to get out of there and spend some much needed time with his girl. they hadn't seen each other since last weekend—school and hockey keeping them way too busy.
"just so you know, i am gonna baby you the whole night," y/n informed once they were securely in her car.
"mm, i can't wait. a face mask is just calling my name," the hockey player leaned back in the passenger seat, hand falling to the girl's lap as she pulled out of the parking lot.
luckily, there was no early morning practice tomorrow, so macklin was gonna use that to his full advantage and spend the night in y/n's dorm. the couple rode in comfortable silence into santa clara university, a convenient 7 minutes away from the arena so y/n never missed a home game.
she parked her car again and the couple hurried into her building. the few students wandering around the lobby caught sight of macklin's suit he put back on, a few of them recognizing him from as a sharks player and as y/n's boyfriend because he was over so much.
they lucked out with y/n's roommate hanging out with her own boyfriend tonight, so they had the whole dorm to themselves. macklin immediately thew his backpack onto the ground and shoved his suit jacket from his shoulders.
"gonna shower. i didn't really before we left. you're welcome to join me if you want," the brunette winked at the girl who flushed.
"wow, so classy of you. i did already shower this morning, so i'll have to pass this time," y/n laughed.
"damn, i thought you'd say yes. you sure you don't wanna shower again?" he winked again. y/n groaned, pushing her boyfriend to the bathroom.
"i'll be out here with your face mask."
the rookie accepted his lonely shower fate and disappeared into the bathroom. y/n took the opportunity to tidy up the room and get all the things she needed for their face masks.
20 minutes later, macklin came back out of the bathroom freshly showered and in more comfortable clothes. y/n hung up his suit jacket on the door of her closet, instructing him to do the same with the rest of the outfit so it wouldn't wrinkle.
the boy climbed into her bed a second later, positioning himself against her pillows, "i'm readyy," he sang.
"i've never known you to be so excited for a face mask," y/n grinned.
"it really makes my skin smooth, so i like it," the boy explained.
y/n handed mack her headband so his hair wouldn't be in his face or in the mask. he didn't hesitate to slip it over his head and expose his forehead. the girl giggled at the sight.
"are you laughing at my big forehead?" the boy raised his eyebrow, hands finding places on y/n's hips as she straddled his waist.
"maybe," she hummed, leaning forward to begin rubbing the cream on his skin.
mack admired her focused expression while just really taking the time to take in every part of her as she applied the mask. this was his favorite part of face masks because he could stare at her without shame and she hardly noticed because she was too focused on the mask.
"have i told you how beautiful you are?" the brunette wondered softly. he watched the way y/n's cheeks heated up into a deep blush.
"you have," she muttered.
"well, i'm gonna say it again. you're really beautiful," mack grinned.
"you're sappy tonight," y/n flushed.
"what? can i not say how beautiful my girlfriend is?"
"no, you can. thank you," she finished spreading the mask, leaning back to admire her work.
"how's it look?"
"great. i'lll let you know when five minutes are up," the girl set a timer on her phone and then mack grabbed the mask cream from her hands before she could set it back on the dresser.
she looked at her boyfriend quizzically.
"can i do yours?" he wondered with a soft expression.
y/n blushed again, "just don't get it in my hair."
"promise, i won't," macklin agreed and y/n let him have at it.
his touch was gentle as his fingers began rubbing around her skin. his lip poked out from his lips as he focused on doing it right. y/n loved how much he wanted to do it correctly for her sake and his expression really was just to die for.
"okay, did it," macklin leaned back to admire his work the same way y/n did. she loved the proud little smile on his lips, pulling her camera up to examine how well he did.
"wow, looks great, mack. your best one yet," y/n agreed.
"what can i say? practice makes perfect," the boy hummed, placing everything back onto her dresser.
"so how's your lip doing now?" y/n wondered as mack's hands wandered across the expanse of her hips and waist.
"i can't even feel it anymore, so good. i told you i'm fine," he eyed her.
"i know, just let me be a worry wart."
the sharks player smiled at her words knowing how much she liked to worry about things, especially the things that didn't need to be worried about. he reached up to quickly peck her lips, tryng to avoid getting face mask on one another.
"i love you," the brunette said.
y/n's smile grew, the whole i love you still new to them but heartwarming to hear, "i love you, too," she kissed him again and now they didn't care about getting face mask on one another.

New California law takes aim at homework burden on students
When the bell rings and the school day is over, for students like Sofia Johnson, the day is nowhere near over. The sixth-grader blames that on hours spent doing homework.
“Homework is exhausting. It’s overwhelming,” Johnson said. “It’s depressing that my whole day from when I wake up to when I go to bed is taken up doing school work.”
That’s why Johnson’s mother, assemblymember Pilar Schiavo (D-Santa Clara) says she authored AB 2999, also known as “The Healthy Homework Act.” It was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom earlier this year to take effect in 2025.
The legislation will not ban homework, but it formally encourages local school boards and educational agencies to establish homework policies that consider impacts on students’ physical and mental health all with input from parents, teachers, and students themselves.
“It’s addressing homework, which is the top stressor for kids,” Schiavo said. “It’s often number one.”
The new law comes as a survey of more than 300,000 American students conducted by Stanford University and the nonprofit organization Challenge Success found that 45% of students say workload and homework are their number one source of stress. The average time spent on homework each night was 2.5 hours across the 13,000 California high school students who took the survey.
