vanity; jinx x fem! reader

loosely inspired by this fic by @moshuka.

summary; jinx used her looks to flirt her way out of a situation. her girlfriend isn’t happy.

characters included; jinx

tags/warnings; nsfw, porn w (some) plot, sub!jinx, dom!reader, brat!jinx, mirror sex, rough sex, strap-on use, strap-on referred to as a dick/cock, hair pulling, crying, humiliation ig?, slight degradation, use of the word ‘whore’, size queen jinx, squirting

men and minors dni.

at first, you were worried.

jinx tends to get herself into dangerous situations more often than not, way too often for her own good. it's what she's known for, after all. jinx: the mad bomber. the loose cannon. zaun's princess.

but she has a way of getting herself out of those situations. her reflexes are impeccable, her strength nearly inhuman for someone of her stature. it is inhuman, considering the shimmer coursing through her veins. weapons that she's built herself regularly save her in battle, and most of all, she's got a smartass mouth.

one that usually comes in handy, but clearly not this time.

"jinx," you start. your arms are crossed over your chest, one hip popped. you're trembling in frustration- coming apart at the edges. "i heard you were flirting with some guy who cornered you. i'm gonna be graceful and hear you out."

she bristles, and the girl's breath catches.

"what i do depends on if i like what you have to say."

you'd heard from passersby on the streets gossiping about what jinx had done. nothing stays a secret for long in zaun; there's almost always a witness, someone who can't keep their mouth shut. people love to gossip, and with that, they love to twist the truth.

so you're hoping to janna above that what you'd heard was a simple rumor. jinx being cornered by one of smeech's goons. a new one, a guy seemingly too good for the likes of this line of work. apparently not. he'd threatened jinx, gotten close to her, nearly hurt her. but instead of her usual solution of whipping out her gun and pressing the cold barrel to someone's neck as a warning, she'd flirted.

told the guy that he's young, attractive, promising. he's too good for a business like this. if he'd just leave her alone, she'd let him go without any fuss, and there would be no mess to clean up. maybe they'd even cross paths again someday.

"i didn't mean any of it, toots," her hands are raised in a mock-surrender. "he was ugly, honest!"

"i didn't ask if he was ugly," you bite. you're inching closer to her, until your noses are nearly touching. the tone in your voice tells jinx you're not fucking around- yet that makes this all the more exciting for her. "i asked you to tell me what happened."

"i didn't do anything, just flirted a little. no harm done."

"you have a gun. why didn't you use that?" you push.

jinx huffs, rolling her eyes. it only serves to piss you off even more. "i just wanted to switch it up, yanno? try something new. and it worked, didn't it? didn't have to spill any blood or nothin'. no cleanup."

"so what i heard is true?"

"depends what you heard."

"oh, you-"

that's it. you take jinx's wrist, and just about drag her to her cot. she's giggling all the way, that signature shit-eating grin plastered on her face. you wish there was blood to clean up. although you know nothing happened- jinx wouldn't dream of being unfaithful to you, this feels calculated. like she'd done it on purpose, just to get under your skin. she was probably sitting in her hideout, just waiting for someone to start talking.

you want nothing more than to slap that grin off of her, make her grovel and apologize and make it up to you.

but you won't. with a quick motion, jinx is flung onto her cot. she gasps, but doesn’t move from her sitting position, doesn’t stop fucking grinning.

"come oooon! you're always telling me i'm soooo pretty. i’m like a work of art.” she comes to lazily toss around the end of one of her braids, playing with it the same way she’s playing with you. “maybe i just wanted to use that to my advantage.”

gods damn it.

you come to stand closer to jinx, looming over the girl. she’s still sitting on her cot, nice and pretty. she looks so innocent, so sweet, if you didn’t know any better, you’d think she actually was. too bad you do know better. your forefinger and thumb grasp her chin, forcing her to look at you. your thumb lazily traces along her plump bottom lip.

“oh, you’re pretty, alright.” your thumb pushes past her lips, flattening against her tongue. “gorgeous, even. but that doesn’t mean you go around using those looks like a fucking whore.”

jinx would be smiling right now, but her mouth is… occupied, not sucking, not licking at your thumb, but letting you do what you must. you withdraw it as quickly as it was put in, wiping her spit on her bare shoulder.

“you’re all talk,” she gasps. “not gonna do a damn thing about it, are you?”

“do you want me to?”

“sure.”

“do you deserve it?”

“does it matter?”

it’s then that you flip her onto her stomach.

“take those clothes off. get back on the cot- face down, ass up. i’ll be back.”

no time is wasted walking to another platform in her hideout and swiping the shattered mirror from one of her tables, and a strap-on from one of her drawers.

you place the mirror directly in front of jinx’s cot, and to no surprise, jinx is completely bare now. her perfect heart of an ass in the air, pussy nearly glistening in the dim light with her arousal. she’s braced herself on her hands, and she isn’t moving, but you can tell by the way her arousal is already dripping down her inner thighs that she’s eager.

it’s a sight straight out of a porn film. the mad bomber, desperate and wanton. maybe you’ll buy a polaroid camera for next time, really capture the moment.

“ugh, toots, are you just gonna stand there, or are ya gonna fuck me?” she whines, only interrupted by the sound of the harness fastening around your hips.

“you’re not exactly in a place to make demands right now.”

you lean over her, your breasts pushing into the smooth skin of her back and your lips almost touching her ear.

“‘revolver’, if it gets too much.” you whisper.

and with that, the tip pushes past her folds. bright pink and dusted with glitter, about 8.5in and girthy. a large task for a small girl, but jinx insists she can take anything you give her.

“hngh- fuck!” she whines out, already beginning to buckle. you’ve got one hand rested on jinx’s hip, the other trailing down her side- her shoulder, the grooves of her ribs, her tiny waist, until it finds purchase on her other hip and you push into her.

another lewd cry falls from her lips. you’re barely even halfway in, and she’s already panting and moaning so pitifully. maybe another day you would’ve taken pity on jinx, but not after the shit she pulled.

“come on,” you coo. “can’t take it?”

“i didn’t- agh, say that-” she pants. the girl’s form is beginning to tremble, but you don’t waver. you ram the rest of the toy into her hole, which brings a borderline pathetic wail from her. the way her greedy hole is impaled by your cock is a sight you wish you could burn into your mind. if she were on her back, you bet you'd be able to see it from inside her stomach, but that can wait for another time.

“fuck- fuck! too big!”

“too big, huh? should’ve thought about that before you went and threw yourself at some guy.”

you ease the strap out of her, before slamming it back in. positively prying your girlfriend open. you then take one of jinx’s long twin braids in your hands, looping it once around your wrist and yanking. forcing her to look up.

she gasps with the motion, yet somehow, she still has the willpower to defy you. squeezing her eyes shut and grunting. you jerk her braid farther back, jinx hissing at the stinging pain.

“look at yourself.” you demand.

it’s then that you move. a slow pace at first, in, out, in, out. drawing wet squelches from her cunt with every thrust. she’s shaking and thrashing and whining, but you can’t deny the way jinx’s cunt sucks you in, clenches around you. greedy and sopping, as if it was made to take your dick.

“aah, hhhng- oh! oh!”

your pace is quickening, and you can hear the skin of your hips slapping into her ass. jiggling ever so slightly with each movement, but the best thing is the mirror.

there’s multiple images of the scene in the shattered glass. the sight is something right out of a dirty magazine; you pounding jinx’s poor, abused pussy from behind. jinx struggling to support her upper body despite her strength, you tugging at one of her braids and forcing her to look directly at her reflection. small tits bouncing with each thrust, plump lips open and the slightest bit of drool dribbling down her chin.

“do you see it?” you pant, the base of the toy nudging your clit with each thrust. “the- hah, way you look right now? while i’m fuckin’ you?”

“yes,” she breathes out, her voice a high shrill. her strength is starting to fail her, shaking on her arms and eventually dropping down to her elbows to support herself. a smirk tugs at your lips at the sight, seeing jinx being broken down so quickly. she brought this on herself, really.

"f-fuck, you look a mess," snapping your hips against jinx's, pathetic whimpers and whines falling from parted lips like a stream. "feels good, huh?"

"feels- hmmph, so good!" she groans. her body is being forced forward and back ever so slightly with each motion, and to see herself being fucked in real time is both thrilling and downright humiliating. jinx never knew this is what she looked like, so wrecked and sloppy, but she can't be bothered to care right now. all she can care about is you fucking into her relentlessly.

arousal dripping down her inner thighs, a stinging sensation in her scalp while you hold onto her hair. she knew you'd get jealous if she flirted- expected a thorough spanking, maybe, or for you to sit on her face and use her mouth until you were satisfied. never did jinx think you'd force her into a front-row seat to her own punishment.

“you’re not gonna do that again- mm,” you groan, base rubbing against you so right. “are you? hngg- tell me you won’t.”

“i won’t, i won’t! unghh, i’m sorry!”

she nearly screams out. the pleasure is mounting, it’s painful, she’s being stretched open and almost split down the middle. but it’s so fucking delicious, the feeling of you fucking her so thoroughly. so deeply. tears are beginning to well in her eyes, her mascara already running down her cheeks. it’s filthy. the tip of the plastic dick kisses her cervix with each thrust, coated in sleek juices.

"oh- oh, please," she breathes out. her bangs are sticking to the thin sheen on her forehead, her breaths coming out in ragged gasps. "pleasepleaseplease-"

there it is. jinx is close, that much is obvious from her flushed expression, her straining against your grip, trying to push her hips back onto your cock like some needy slut. your own climax is building, but you want- need to see jinx get there first.

you reach underneath her with your free hand and press against her neglected clit, which draws a high-pitched squeal from jinx. you revel in the sound. right now, it’s as if jinx is an instrument, fine-tuned for your playing. making these beautiful, obscene sounds.

you can see hot tears running down her face in the mirror, lips parted and the pale expanse of her neck bared. her lipstick is smeared from the dribble running down her chin, and thin black streaks run down her cheeks.

“i’m- i’m gonna-!”

the girl doesn’t have time to finish her sentence before she squirts over your hand and the cot beneath her- coating you in light pink. she’s boneless, panting beneath you, collapsing as soon as you pull out of her and release her braid. she can’t muster up any words, she’s spent- laid on her stomach, sniffling and simply trying to breathe.

maybe next time, she won’t be so fucking vain.

Nanomaterials are emerging as a powerful tool for coastal oil spill cleanup

Cleaning up after a major oil spill is a long, expensive process, and the damage to a coastal region's ecosystem can be significant. This is especially true for the world's Arctic region, where newly opened sea lanes will expose remote shorelines to increased risks due to an anticipated rise in sea traffic. Current mitigation techniques even in heavily populated regions face serious limitations, including low oil absorption capacity, potential toxicity to marine life and a slow remediation process. However, advances in nanotechnology may provide solutions that are more effective, safer and work much faster than current methods. That's according to a new paper in Environmental Science: Nano by a Concordia-led team of researchers.

Tonight's extra-lazy delight straight out of the freezer, which just went in the oven.

(Should I have laid things out the other way around on the foil, with that long piece of fish? Probably so. But, I did manage to get it parceled up anyway.)

Because I am tired of eating quite as low carb the past little while to keep my blood sugar from going quite as crazy with this cold or whatever fucking with it, and also because I am one lazy bastard? I decided to try throwing a handful of frozen steak fries in under the other veggies. Just green beans and a handful of mainly julienned mixed-color carrot "wok mix" primarily for the color variety. That's a piece of red onion sitting on one butter shard.

On top of that: some lemon pepper-dill salmon, because why not. I also bought more salmon, and felt freer to eat up the couple of pieces we already had. There's also a shit-ton of seasoned salt down in there, and more garlic powder than I intended because I managed to spill some into the butter container. 🙄 Handy cleanup solution: just throw that in too! It'll be fine.

I've bought commercial frozen parchment fish packets less good than this'll probably turn out.

How long will this need in the oven? Who knows, starting with everything frozen solid. I'm going to check it after 45 minutes at 200C/400F, and go from there. Sounds close enough.

Say Goodbye To Stains: Tips For Removing Dog Pee From Your Mattress

There's nothing quite as disheartening as discovering that your beloved furry friend has left an unwelcome surprise on your mattress. Dog pee stains can be a real hassle, but fear not! With the right tips and tricks, you can say goodbye to stains for good. In this guide, we'll walk you through everything you need How To Remove Dog Pee From A Mattress  so you can rest easily. Let's dive in!

Understanding Why Dogs Pee on Beds

Dogs may pee on beds for various reasons, from medical to behavioral problems. It could be a sign of anxiety or stress, significantly if their environment has changed recently. Sometimes, dogs mark their territory by urinating on things that carry their scent, like your mattress.

Sometimes, a dog might have a medical condition, such as a urinary tract infection or diabetes, that causes it to urinate indoors. Age-related issues can also lead to accidents on the bed. Understanding why your dog is peeing on the bed is crucial in addressing the root cause and preventing future incidents.

Observing your dog's behavior and consulting with a veterinarian if you suspect any underlying health issues is essential. By identifying the reason behind this behavior, you can take proactive steps to resolve it and keep your mattress clean and fresh.

Quick Tips for Cleaning Up Fresh Urine Stains

Imagine waking up to find your furry friend has left you a not-so-pleasant surprise on your mattress. It happens, and it's essential to act fast! The key to dealing with fresh urine stains is speed. The longer the mess sits, the harder it will be to remove.

Start by blotting up as much urine as possible using paper towels or a clean cloth. Avoid rubbing the stain, which can spread it further into the mattress fibers. Once you've soaked up what you can, mix a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar in a spray bottle.

Spritz the affected area generously with the vinegar solution and let it sit for a few minutes before gently blotting again. Then, sprinkle baking soda over the stain to help absorb any remaining odor. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes before vacuuming it up.

These quick tips can help tackle fresh urine stains effectively before they have a chance to set in and become more challenging to remove later on.

Effective Methods for Removing Old or Set-In Stains

Dealing with old or set-in dog pee stains on your mattress can be a real headache. These stubborn stains leave an unpleasant odor and pose a challenge to remove altogether. However, fret not, as there are effective methods you can try to tackle this issue.

Creating a cleaning solution using equal water and white vinegar is one method. Gently blot the stained area with this solution using a clean cloth, allowing it to sit for some time before rinsing with water.

Another approach is to sprinkle baking soda over the stain and then mix hydrogen peroxide with dish soap. Let the solution sit for a while before gently scrubbing away the residue.

Consider using enzymatic cleaners specifically designed to break down pet urine molecules effectively for tougher stains. Follow the instructions provided by the product for the best results in removing those pesky old stains from your mattress.

Preventing Future Accidents and Protecting Your Mattress

Consider using a waterproof mattress protector to prevent future accidents and protect your mattress. These handy covers are a barrier against spills or accidents, making cleanup much more accessible. Additionally, regularly wash your bedding to maintain a fresh and clean sleeping environment.

Training your dog is crucial in preventing future accidents on your bed. Consistent potty training and positive reinforcement can help reduce the likelihood of them peeing on the mattress. Providing regular bathroom breaks for your furry friend can also minimize accidents indoors.

If you notice any signs of anxiety or health issues in your dog that may be causing bed-wetting incidents, consult with a veterinarian for guidance on how to effectively address these concerns. Remember, patience and consistency are crucial to preventing accidents and protecting your mattress from unwanted stains caused by dog pee.

Alternative Solutions and Products for Tough Stains

When it comes to dealing with tough dog pee stains on your mattress, various alternative solutions and products can be effective. Enzymatic cleaners designed specifically for pet urine removal can work wonders in breaking down the stain's odor-causing components. You can also use a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda to create a powerful cleaning paste.

For persistent or stubborn stains, steam cleaning your mattress may provide a deeper clean and help eliminate any lingering odors. Additionally, investing in a waterproof mattress protector can prevent future accidents and keep your mattress safe from potential damage.

By following these tips and utilizing the right products, you can say goodbye to dog pee stains on your mattress for good. Remember, patience and persistence are key when tackling this common pet-related issue. With the proper approach, you can keep your mattress fresh and clean while enjoying quality time with your furry companion.

Creating a show-stopping Captain America cake can be a rewarding experience, but it can also seem daunting, especially for novice bakers. Fortunately, it's not necessary for you to tackle it alone. Collaborative cake decorating is a fantastic way to achieve a stunning cake while having fun. This blog post explores the joys and benefits of working together to create a Captain America cake masterpiece. We'll provide planning tips, dividing tasks, setting up a decorating station, and troubleshooting common challenges. So, gather your fellow bakers, whether they're seasoned decorators or enthusiastic novices, and get ready to create a cake worthy of Captain America himself!

Planning Your Collaborative Captain America Cake

Theme and Design: Before diving in, discuss the desired design with your team. Do you want a classic Captain America cake with a round base, white star, and red stripes? Or perhaps a more elaborate design featuring the shield, helmet, or even a scene from a Captain America movie? Browsing online resources together for inspiration can be a great way to brainstorm ideas. Skill Levels and Preferences: Once you have a theme in mind, consider everyone's skill levels and preferences. If someone has experience with fondant work, they can take charge of crafting the shield or other decorative elements. Baking enthusiasts can focus on creating the perfect cake layers, while others can contribute their artistic talents to piping borders or lettering. Ingredients and Supplies: Make a list of all the ingredients and supplies needed based on your chosen design. Delegate tasks like shopping or prepping ingredients beforehand to ensure a smooth decorating process. Schedule a Decorating Session: Choose a date and time that work for everyone involved. Remember, cake decorating can take time, so factor in enough buffer room to complete the project without feeling rushed.

Dividing and Conquering: Tasks for Your Team

The beauty of collaborative decorating lies in dividing the workload. Here's a breakdown of potential tasks to delegate: • Baking the Cake: This can be a collaborative effort or assigned to someone with baking experience. Ensure everyone agrees on the cake flavour and size beforehand. • Preparing Frosting: Similar to baking, frosting preparation can be a shared task or assigned to someone comfortable with frosting consistency. • Creating Decorations: This is where artistic talents can shine! Depending on your design, tasks might involve colouring fondant, piping borders, cutting out shapes, or creating fondant figures. • Assembling the Cake: This stage involves layering the cake, adding frosting, and carefully positioning the decorations. Delegate tasks based on comfort levels and ensure everyone is aware of the overall design plan. • Cleaning and Presentation: Don't forget the importance of keeping the workspace clean and organized throughout the process. Assign someone to handle cleanup tasks and another to focus on the final presentation, which might involve adding sprinkles or cake toppers.

Setting Up Your Decorating Station

Having a well-organized workspace is key to a successful decorating session.

Tackling Ocean Pollution. A Global Imperative

Ocean pollution is one of the most pressing environmental issues of our time, with devastating effects on marine ecosystems and human health. The accumulation of plastic waste, chemical runoff, and other pollutants in our oceans has reached alarming levels, necessitating immediate and sustained action.

Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste enter the oceans, harming marine life and disrupting ecosystems. Sea creatures ingest or become entangled in plastic debris, leading to injury and death. Additionally, pollutants such as oil, heavy metals, and agricultural runoff contribute to the degradation of marine environments.

Michael Shvartsman, a dedicated environmental advocate, emphasizes the urgency of addressing ocean pollution: “Our oceans are vital to the health of our planet. Protecting them is not just an environmental issue; it’s a matter of global survival. We must act now to reduce pollution and safeguard marine life.”

The primary sources of ocean pollution include:

Plastic Waste: Single-use plastics and discarded fishing gear are major contributors.

Chemical Runoff: Pesticides, fertilizers, and industrial chemicals wash into waterways, eventually reaching the oceans.

Oil Spills: Accidents and leaks from oil rigs and tankers release vast amounts of oil into the sea.

Marine Litter: Non-biodegradable waste, such as discarded fishing nets and packaging materials, persist in the marine environment for decades.

Addressing ocean pollution requires a multifaceted approach:

Reducing Plastic Use: Promoting the use of reusable products and reducing single-use plastics can significantly decrease waste.

Improving Waste Management: Enhancing recycling programs and waste disposal systems can prevent litter from reaching the oceans.

Legislative Action: Enforcing stricter regulations on pollutants and promoting international agreements to protect marine environments are essential steps.

Public Awareness: Educating the public about the impacts of ocean pollution and encouraging sustainable practices can drive change.

Michael Shvartsman advocates for collective action: “Solving ocean pollution requires collaboration between governments, businesses, and individuals. By working together, we can implement effective solutions and create a healthier future for our oceans.”

Technological advancements play a crucial role in tackling ocean pollution. Innovations in waste collection, such as ocean cleanup devices and biodegradable materials, offer promising solutions. Additionally, satellite monitoring and data analytics help track pollution sources and measure the effectiveness of interventions.

Ocean pollution is a critical issue that demands immediate attention and action. By reducing plastic use, improving waste management, enforcing regulations, and leveraging technology, we can mitigate the impacts of pollution on marine environments. As Michael Shvartsman highlights, protecting our oceans is essential for the well-being of our planet and future generations. Together, we can make a significant difference in preserving the health of our oceans and ensuring a sustainable future.

The Conversation: The importance of shining a light on hidden toxic histories

Indianapolis proudly claims Elvis’ last concert, Robert Kennedy’s speech in response to Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination, and the Indianapolis 500. There’s a 9/11 memorial, a Medal of Honor Memorial and a statue of former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning.

What few locals know, let alone tourists, is that the city also houses one of the largest dry cleaning Superfund sites in the U.S.

From 1952 to 2008, Tuchman Cleaners laundered clothes using perchloroethylene, or PERC, a neurotoxin and possible carcinogen. Tuchman operated a chain of cleaners throughout the city, which sent clothes to a facility on Keystone Avenue for cleaning. It was also the location where used solution was stored in underground tanks.

Inspectors noted the presence of volatile organic compounds from leaking tanks and possible spills as early as 1989. By 1994, an underground plume had spread to a nearby aquifer. By the time the EPA became involved in 2011, the underground chemical plume had seeped more than a mile underneath a residential area, reaching a well that supplies drinking water to the city.

When geographer Owen Dwyer, earth scientist Gabe Filippelli and I investigated and wrote about the social and environmental history of dry cleaning in Indianapolis, we were struck by how few people outside of the dry cleaning and environmental management fields were aware of this environmental damage.

There are no markers or memorials. There is no mention of it – or any other accounts of contamination – in Indianapolis’ many museums. This kind of silence has been called “environmental amnesia” or “collective forgetting.”

Societies celebrate heroes and commemorate tragedies. But where in public memory is environmental harm? What if people thought about it not only as a science or policy problem, but also as a part of history? Would it make a difference if pollution, along with biodiversity loss and climate change, was seen as part of our shared heritage?

The slow violence of contamination

Environmental harm often takes place gradually and out of sight, and this could be one reason why there’s so little public conversation and commemoration. In 2011, Princeton English professor Rob Nixon came up with a term for this kind of environmental degradation: slow violence.

As underground storage tanks leak, shipwrecks corrode, coal ash ponds seep and forever chemicals spread, the creeping pace of poisoned soil and water fails to garner the attention that more dramatic environmental disasters attract.

Certain interests benefit from hiding the costs of pollution and its remediation. Sociologists Scott Frickel and James R. Elliott have studied urban pollution, and they highlight three reasons for its pervasiveness and persistence.

First, in cities, small factories, auto repair shops, dry cleaners and other light industries sometimes only stay open for a decade or two, making it challenging to regulate them and track their environmental impacts over time. By the time contamination is discovered, many facilities have long been shuttered or purchased by new owners. And the polluters have a direct financial interest in not being connected with it, since they could be held liable and forced to pay for cleanup.

Similarly, urban neighborhoods tend to have shifting demographics, and local residents are often not aware of historical pollution.

Finally, it can simply be politically expedient to look the other way and ignore the consequences of pollution. Cities may be concerned that publicizing toxic histories discourage investment and depress property values, and politicians are hesitant to fund projects that may have a long-term benefit but short-term costs. Indianapolis, for example, tried for decades to avoid mitigating the raw sewage flowing into the White River and Fall Creek, arguing it was too expensive to deal with. Only when required by a consent decree did the city start to address the problem.

Toxic legacies are also difficult to track because their effects may be hidden by distance and time. Anthropologist Peter Little traced the outsourcing of electronics waste recycling, which is shipped from the places where electronics are bought and used, to countries such as Ghana, where labor is cheap and environmental regulations lax.

Then there are the toxic traces of military conflicts, which linger long after the fighting has stopped and troops have returned home. Historian and geologist Daniel Hubé has documented the long-term environmental impact of World War I munitions.

At the end of the war, unused and unexploded bombs and chemical weapons had to be disposed of. In France, at a site known as Place à Gaz, hundreds of thousands of chemical weapons were burned. Today, the soils have been found to have extraordinarily high levels of arsenic and other heavy metals.

More than a century after the end of the war, little grows on the contaminated, barren land.

Toxic tours and teaching moments

There’s a growing movement to make toxic histories more visible.

In Providence, Rhode Island, artist Holly Ewald founded the Urban Pond Procession to call attention to Mashapaug Pond, which was contaminated by a Gorham Silver factory. She worked with community partners to create wearable sculptures, puppets and giant fish, all of which were carried and worn in an annual parade that took place from 2008 to 2017.

Cultural anthropologist Amelia Fiske collaborated with artist Jonas Fischer to create the graphic novel “Tóxico,” which will be published in 2024. It depicts petroleum pollution in the Ecuadorian Amazon, as well as the struggles of those fighting for environmental justice.

Toxic tours can educate the public about the histories, causes and consequences of environmental harm. For example, Ironbound Community Corporation in Newark, New Jersey, offers a tour of severely contaminated sites, such as the location of the former Agent Orange factory, where the sediment in the sludge is laced with the carcinogen dioxin. The tour also goes by a detention center that’s built on a brownfield, which has only undergone industrial-level remediation because that’s the standard all prisons are held to.

In 2017, the Humanities Action Lab organized “Climates of Inequality,” a traveling exhibit co-curated by more than 20 universities and local partners exploring environmental issues affecting communities around the world. The exhibit brings attention to polluted waterways, the impacts of climate change, ecological damage on Indigenous lands and the ways in which immigrant agricultural workers experience heat stress and chronic pesticide exposure. The exhibits also explore the affected communities’ resilience and advocacy.

These stories of pollution and contamination, and their effects on people’s health and livelihoods, represent only a sampling of current efforts to curate toxic heritage. As sociologist Alice Mah writes in her foreword to “Toxic Heritage”: “Reckoning with toxic heritage is an urgent collective task. It is also unsettling work. It requires confronting painful truths about the roots of toxic injustice with courage, honesty, and humility.”

I see public commemoration of hidden toxic histories as a way to push back against denial, habituation and amnesia. It creates a space for public conversation, and it opens up possibilities for a more just and sustainable future.

Polymer foam aims to transform oil spill cleanup

University of Waterloo researchers have developed a new material that can absorb more than eight times its weight in oil, offering a new solution in preventing groundwater contamination from spills or accidents. The study, "Fabrication of Triblock Elastomer Foams and Gelation Studies for Oil Spill Remediation," was published in Macro Molecular Rapid Communications. "The current technology for oil capture is lagging," said Tizazu Mekonnen, a professor at Waterloo's Department of Chemical Engineering. "Preserving our environment is crucial, which is why developing advanced technologies like this polymer is essential for remediating future groundwater contaminants that involve oil." The polymer foam—formally known as a tri-block polymer styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS)—that Mekonnen's group designed turns into a gel upon contact with oil, that prevents groundwater contamination.

Designing the Heart of the Home – Kitchen Layouts That Actually Work

Every kitchen tells a story. Some are bold and open. Others feel quiet and cozy. But all of them need to work. Function matters just as much as flair. So whether you’re cooking a feast or just reheating last night’s leftovers, your layout sets the tone.

A smart kitchen remodel begins with figuring out how you live. Do you love to entertain? Got a house full of hungry kids? Or maybe it’s just you, your coffee, and that one favorite pan. Whatever your rhythm, your layout should match it.

The Kitchen Triangle Is Still a Thing

Ever heard of it? The triangle connects your sink, stove, and fridge. Sounds simple, right? It works because you move between these zones constantly. A solid triangle avoids unnecessary steps.

But not every layout needs a strict triangle. Modern homes love flow. Some go for zones instead. Prep zone. Cook zone. Cleanup zone. A good kitchen contractor helps you figure out which setup fits your lifestyle.

Popular Kitchen Layouts That Actually Get the Job Done

Let’s break down what works. Not just in theory, but in real life kitchens that breathe, move, and serve.

1. The Classic L-Shape

Simple. Flexible. Fits small or large spaces. One wall runs longer. The shorter one makes it feel tucked-in. Best for open concept living.

Great for families or solo chefs who don’t want cabinets on every wall.

A seasoned kitchen remodel contractor near me can tuck in hidden storage or extend countertop space without making things feel boxed in.

2. The U-Shape

Cabinets and counters on three walls. Maximum storage. Maximum counter space.

You feel surrounded by your tools. Which can be a blessing or a bother. If it's too tight, you bump into everything.

Add a pass-through window or widen the entry to make it feel airier. Smart tweaks from a kitchen renovation expert turn this into a dream setup.

3. The Galley Kitchen

Straight down the line. Two parallel walls. Everything within arm’s reach.

Perfect for smaller homes or apartments. Efficient. Compact. Clean.

This layout works wonders when paired with clever lighting, sleek cabinets, and reflective finishes. A kitchen contractor near me can open one wall to connect with dining or living space.

4. The Island Layout

Now we’re talkin’. The island is a multi-tasking beast.

It stores stuff. It gives you prep space. It lets friends gather around while you cook. And if you’ve got stools? Instant breakfast bar.

An experienced kitchen contractor makes sure the island doesn’t crowd the flow. It should feel part of the room—not just plopped in.

5. The Peninsula Setup

Island vibes, but it’s connected. Think of it like an L or U-shape with an extension.

It divides space without fully closing it off. Great for open floor plans that still want a little structure.

A clever kitchen and bathroom remodeling pro can help balance light, movement, and space so nothing feels blocked.

Layout Mistakes You Should Dodge

Too many cabinets makes the room feel closed off

Not enough landing zones next to ovens or fridges leads to spills and mess

Ignoring flow can cause traffic jams mid-meal

Zero counter space near the sink leads to chaos

Lighting in the wrong spot makes your prep zone a shadow zone

These issues get solved early when your layout is solid. That’s why choosing experienced kitchen contractors near me is key.

Durable and Stylish Flooring Options for Brisbane Businesses and Homes

Choosing the right flooring can completely transform a space—adding functionality, enhancing design, and boosting property value. In high-traffic areas, especially for businesses or garages, durability is essential. Floors are not just the base of a room; they are a long-term investment that must withstand daily wear and tear while maintaining their appearance. This article explores the growing demand for quality flooring solutions, specifically highlighting commercial flooring Brisbane and epoxy garage floor Brisbane, two increasingly popular options for those seeking dependable, stylish surfaces.

THE RISE OF QUALITY COMMERCIAL FLOORING IN BRISBANE

Brisbane's bustling commercial hubs demand flooring that offers both resilience and aesthetic appeal. From retail spaces to office buildings, the choice of flooring plays a critical role in creating a safe and professional environment. Many businesses are now leaning towards commercial flooring Brisbane solutions due to their high resistance to foot traffic, easy maintenance, and contemporary look. These flooring systems are engineered to perform in dynamic spaces while reducing downtime with quick installation methods.

WHY COMMERCIAL SPACES ARE TURNING TO INDUSTRIAL-STRENGTH FLOORING

As Brisbane continues to grow as a commercial center, there's an increasing shift towards long-lasting flooring alternatives. This shift is largely due to the limitations of traditional flooring materials that often crack, chip, or stain under pressure. Commercial flooring Brisbane options like epoxy and polished concrete are rapidly gaining traction because of their resistance to damage, chemical spills, and moisture. These benefits make them ideal for restaurants, hospitals, schools, and warehouses—spaces where function and safety are priorities. Their sleek finish also contributes to a modern business appearance.

THE FUNCTIONAL BEAUTY OF EPOXY FLOORING FOR GARAGES

Residential property owners across Brisbane are finding that flooring isn't just a utilitarian decision—it can also enhance the overall value and look of a home. For this reason, epoxy garage floor Brisbane services are growing in popularity. Epoxy coatings turn dusty, plain concrete slabs into clean, polished surfaces that are easy to maintain and hard to damage. This type of flooring doesn't just stand up to oil spills and tire marks—it elevates the entire garage into a cleaner, more appealing part of the home.

WHY BRISBANE HOMEOWNERS TRUST EPOXY FOR THEIR GARAGE SPACES

In suburban Brisbane, garages are no longer just storage areas—they double as home workshops, gyms, and hobby zones. To support these multi-functional spaces, homeowners are investing in durable, high-performance flooring. The choice of epoxy garage floor Brisbane provides a smooth, high-gloss finish that’s resistant to abrasion and moisture. The variety of finishes available, from matte to metallic, allows residents to tailor their garages to personal tastes while ensuring the surface lasts for years. More importantly, epoxy flooring is non-porous, making cleanup fast and hassle-free.

THE LONG-TERM VALUE OF INSTALLING EPOXY GARAGE FLOORING

Investing in a epoxy garage floor Brisbane solution doesn’t just mean an upgrade in aesthetics—it means long-term savings and peace of mind. With a surface that resists cracking, discoloration, and moisture damage, homeowners find themselves spending less on repairs or replacements. This type of flooring also adds a layer of safety, with anti-slip textures available to reduce the risk of falls. As garages increasingly serve as multi-use areas, epoxy flooring supports a cleaner, more organized, and visually pleasing environment.

CONCLUSION: A SMART INVESTMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL SPACES

When choosing a flooring solution in Brisbane, the importance of long-term performance, visual appeal, and maintenance efficiency cannot be overstated. Whether it’s for a thriving business needing commercial flooring Brisbane or a homeowner enhancing their garage with epoxy garage floor Brisbane, the right floor sets the tone for the entire space.
