Mercado Libre has what's perhaps the worst app in the business, which is really embarrassing considering its size, and also just godawful customer service. I would prefer not to switch to amazon if I could help it, but goddamn.

why is talking to doctors...........like this
#had to send hundreds of emails to recruit participants for my study#not many replied but when they did: holy shit#there's the doctors who absolutely want you on the phone because they don't know if they can trust you with their patients!!!!#so they give you a day and a time to call them and then never pick up the fucking phone#those who would like to take over your study!#those who get back to you two months later when the study is over to ask you for your ethical requirements#which are in the information notice i sent them#which also states i recruit participants until mid-april!!!#FUCKING AMATEURS#12 years of studying and they still somehow end up THIS stupid#oh and the one who send you their patients' files#which are you know..... confidential#and even though you clearly told them to give their patients your email address they go like. mr x said he would like to participate#here's his number his home address and social security number!#so you text the guy. and he never replies because obviously he said yes to his doctor to be nice or get him off his back#which uh doctors are completely deaf to#it's a culture. for sure.#just makes me want to bang my head against the wall until i put myself in a coma

cw brief mentions of pregnancy
hook-up culture was one of the only ways you could get your fix without commitment. itâs hard to maintain any real relationships now, especially as a full time student (and slut). but youâd always been careful, having taken contraceptives, keeping condoms on you, etc etc.
though, none of them are 100% full proof.
you stare at the pregnancy test, wide-eyed. someone bangs on the bathroom door of the gas station, urging you to hurry up. but you canât, the implications of those two little lines keeping you stuck to the seat.
when you ask your friends, they dismiss you, saying âyouâre a smart girl, youâll figure it out.â and when you call your parents..
you block out the interaction from your memory.
with no financial or emotional support, you are forced to scour the internet for a solution. an abortion is too expensive, and you canât raise this thing when youâre about to enter your junior year of college.
all hope seems lost, till you find the shadiest ad on craigslist;
Looking for Baby to adopt. Surrogate or already pregnant. Will provide care for entire pregnancy.
it seems like a scam, even more so as you open it and skim through the benefits (a roof over your head, food and water, nearly $25k to start). everything about this seems too good to be true. after all, can you really trust something you saw on craigslist?
still, your eyes find a phone number and email address at the bottom of the ad, belonging to some guy named johnny mactavish. the foreign name throws you off even more, surely a name like that isnât located in the united states of fuck all. though, it seems like you have no other solutions.
hesitantly, your mouse hovers over the âreplyâ button, the clicking sound ringing in your ears, settling your fate.
ââ
johnny knew it was futile to post an ad looking for a surrogate on craigslist, but he didnât see any other options (or rather, he ignores them). simon and him have been retired for some time now, settling in some small state. the woods offer some sort of privacy, a silence that comforts them rather than makes them shake in their sleep.
it seemed natural that having children would be the next step after living here for so long. johnny thanks tommy for finding a pretty bird and producing a nephew since it wouldâve been harder to convince simon otherwise. the rileyâs donât seem like family men, yet simon is carving a little bear to send back to manchester, congratulating tommy on the announcement of his baby girl.
it makes johnny warm, but he canât help but feel jealous. sure, simon is everything to him, his whole world, but itâs hard to procreate when all you got is a prick and shitter.
so he set up his little offer, though he might as well be suppressed with how nearly no one has reached out to him.
johnnyâs about to take down the ad, ready to talk to simon about doing things a different way, when he suddenly gets a reply.
> this isnât a joke, right?
johnny raises a brow at this, swiveling back to the computer and typing up his response.
< would nevr joke bout smth srs
and when five minutes passed, he presumed that would be the end of this little interaction, fueling johnnyâs desire to take down the post.
that is, till he gets another response.
> well, is the position still open then?
he feels his heart stop, eyes widening as he reads the phrase over and over. a certain excitement wells in his chest, and he gets back on the keyboard before he can run out the room and tell simon the good news.
ââ
his last reply consists of a time, date, and address.

I've watched pretty much all of Jenny Nicholson's videos (despite not being into most of the things she's into) for a variety of reasons, but one of the reasons I watch her content is because I think that she seems like a truly stand-up kind of person. Of course, given that she is a person creating content for YouTube, we're only allowed to see the version of herself that she wants us to see. I'm under no illusions about that. But the version of herself that she presents to us, the viewers, seems to be a person who is not only genuinely passionate about the things she discusses (and honest about why she'll hold back on discussing certain topics when fans of those topics can be awful about it), but also who considers the experiences of (for lack of a better phrase) the average person when it comes to the theme parks and other experiences that she reviews.
Three specific instances come to mind: one from the Evermore video, and then two from her most recent Star Wars hotel video. (Side note: she was so, so right that Disney marketing is stupid as hell for not letting influencers et cetera use the common names for things. The average person doesn't know what "Galactic Starcruiser" is, but will understand "Star Wars hotel." Get it together, Disney.)
In the Evermore video, Jenny talks about how she emailed Evermore Park ahead of her visit to try to get more information prior to her visit. Things like whether there was a dress code, what she could expect when she arrived there, information that should have been readily available on the website but wasn't. She mentions that she could have mentioned that she's an influencer and that she probably would have gotten a response (because they never emailed her back), but that she deliberately chose not to.
"So I did attempt to email ahead of my visit, trying to ask basic questions about the park and inquire about renting it out. When I did that, I was intentionally vague; I didn't link my channel, and I didn't use my primary email. And I sort of suspect that if I had done the whole influencer song and dance -- said my channel name, my subscriber count -- I might've had better access to the park, and perhaps even a better experience. But that wasn't the point. I didn't want to call ahead. I'm the mystery diner! I'm the undercover boss! If you can't deliver an equivalently good experience for all guests, that's on you and your business." [x]
Then, in the Star Wars hotel video, there were two instances in which Jenny had to reach out to Disney customer support for assistance, and received absolutely nothing in return. The first was when she paid for a photo taking service, but had absolutely no photos taken of her. When she reached out to Disney customer support for a refund, they refused to give her said deserved refund. The second instance was when she had purchased a large droid figure from the hotel, and had it shipped to her house via the Disney shipping service. The Disney shipping service inputted her address incorrectly (in fact I think she says they put in a completely different address altogether), so her droid was lost. Once again she reached out to Disney customer support to find out what she could do about this expensive item she had purchased, only to be told that they couldn't do anything to help her.
In both cases, Jenny took to twitter to post about how Disney was refusing to a.) issue her a refund for a service she paid for but never received, and b.) help her receive an item she'd paid for but never received. Both times, Disney reached out immediately, issued her the refund, and overnighted her lost item. Jenny correctly identifies that they only did this because she's an influencer with a large twitter following, and has this to say in the video:
"They didn't even ask for my phone number. Like someone at Disney just did the legwork to go into the database, look up my booking info, find my phone number and then call me within a day of the tweet going out. And the person who called me was really nice, and I'm thankful he cared to resolve it. BUT, I just always feel very cynical when I try to resolve issues through the appropriate channels available to all customers and nobody will help me until they find out I'm an 'influencer.' I spoke with several other guests who got [the photo taking service] and had the exact same problems as me, and they never got refunds." [x]
And
"But then after I tweeted about it on my twitter account with a lot of followers, Disney suddenly resolved it and they sent me a replacement. They actually overnighted it to me. And along with it they sent a lot of miscellaneous goodies which I really appreciated. So here again, I feel if this had happened to anyone without a lot of twitter followers, they would have had a significantly more frustrating experience." [x]
I feel that this post will probably read as giving Jenny kudos for doing the bare minimum. And I think that on some level, that's true. But it's true because nowadays, many influencers won't even do the bare minimum. They would have Disney immediately issue them a refund, or overnight the droid to them with the additional goodies, and then make posts gushing about how great Disney's customer service is, despite knowing full well that the (again for lack of a better term) average person who doesn't have a huge internet following would never receive that kind of support from Disney. Similarly with Evermore, most influencers would call ahead and flex their follower count to try to get a bespoke experience to then show on their channels. They wouldn't want the same experience everyone else gets. That won't generate good content, in their eyes, and besides, they're better than that. Don't you know who they are?
But Jenny, despite her follower counts, keeps it real. Yes, she appreciates that Disney did give her the deserved refund and did send her the droid + gifts. But she also points out, both times, that if she'd been a person without a large twitter following, they would not have done that, and people in the exact same position she was with the photo service didn't get their deserved refunds. With Evermore, she didn't call ahead because she DOES want the same experience everyone else gets. She wants to be able to give a genuine review. Whether that review is positive or negative is dependent on the business itself.
Again, this probably seems like giving Jenny kudos for the bare minimum of decency. And I agree that on some level it is. But I also think that, in today's day and age, we really don't get that with a lot of influencers, who are in it for the sponsorship money (and who get their egos way inflated), and so it's nice to have a reviewer / theme park influencer who is honest with her opinions, and who recognizes that yeah, Disney did give her special treatment, but that it shouldn't have been special treatment, that they should be helping all of their guests like this, through the normal channels that she tried using, and they are a shit company for not doing that.
I just really appreciate Jenny.

POLY MARAUDERS | HEROES IN TATTOOS PART 5
05 : DRUNK AND CIGARETTE SMOKE
SUM : Itâs been a few weeks and James makes a reappearance in your life, Remus too â theyâve fallen into bad habits.Â
G. : modern au ; muggle au ; tattoo artist james potter ; piercer remus lupin ; remus smokes ; drunk james ; reader is sad ; this is a little sad chapter ; fergus is an amazing, lovable manager ; iâm horrible at writing the scottish accent! ; james is an adorable drunk ; jamesâ car is sexy and red ; remiss has eye bags and smells of cigarette smoke ; uh oh ; itâll get better soon!Â
LENGTH : 2.8k
â PREV. : 04 | DISAPPEAR
You stare in disbelief at the notice that stares back at you mockingly from behind the glass door of the âMarauders Tattoo Parlourâ.Â
âNOTICEâ it said in bold red sharpie, right above a handwritten message that you recognise as Remusâ neat penmanship, âdue to personal reasons, Prongs, Padfoot and I (Moony) will be keeping the parlour closed until further notice. We kindly ask that you remain patient as private matters are being sorted through and resolved. We are still open for online and phone consultations to discuss designs and potential future appointments. Kindest Regards, The Maraudersâ. Beneath the polite and brief explanation of current circumstances was a business email address and phone number as well as working times for phone calls.Â
The weeks following your discovery of the boysâ true relationship, you rarely ever passed their parlour. A little over three weeks has passed now and youâve finally been able to walk past their studio doors close enough to read the notice. Youâre frozen in place as dread and worry cultivates shards of sharpened ice to grow within you. Freezing up your senses, freezing up your mind and freezing up limbs. Yet, your heart is racing like never before, your blood pounding against your ears like a drummer gone mad.Â
The feeling that settled in your stomach wasnât a pleasant one, especially when you felt completely responsible for the boysâ sudden hiatus in business. They had often talked to you about how much the parlour meant to them, how it was their best investment and remains their biggest source of opportunity â an opportunity to help people express themselves. Itâs a form of freedom that many have been deprived of (themselves included) and they were honoured to now be able to provide that same freedom to others. For them to completely close up shop like this was completely bizarre.Â
How long have they been closed for?
You bite your lip and will yourself to move your feet, the ice in your limbs breaking uncomfortably, shattering into a million knives of ice, shooting pins and needles up your arms and legs as if your blood had been frozen up too. As you walk away, you slip your phone back into your pocket, where your hands also remain.Â
While contemplating what could have happened to your favourite tattooists and piercer, you made sure to save a picture of their business phone number onto your photos.Â
You were never able to call their business number. And you had many excuses lined up to absolve your cowardly behaviour. The main one being that it was their business number, it wasnât meant to be used for a conversation between friends. Were you even still friends at this point? The thought made you shiver and stole the appetite right from your stomach. It was a greedy little thing cowardice, regret too. Theyâve stolen many things from you, your appetite was their favourite thing to purloin, motivation another, happiness as well. Nasty, selfish and greedy thieves. But you werenât brave enough to confront them and make them stop. And that, alone, makes you their willing accomplice â so whoâs really to blame?Â
It didnât help that through this entire ordeal, youâve realised that none of the boys have exchanged phone numbers with you. To say that you were bitter was an understatement. If they never gave you their number, why would they want you ringing them in the first place?Â
âŠmaybe they didnât have a reason to? You couldnât remember a single time after the day you first brought them that homemade âthank youâ lunch where you hadnât seen them on a regular basis. And now that you were used to seeing them almost daily, your life has since been bleeding of colour and vibrance. Days are dull and monotonous, itâs hard to motivate yourself to do pretty much anything, let alone your job.
âYerâve been sighinâ so much these days, Iâm startinâ to see wrinkles formingâ on yer cute lilâ face lass,â Furgus comments, nudging your hip with his own as he passes by you behind the counter.Â
Flustered, you scramble to get back to work with a quick apology, evidence of your embarrassment heating up your cheeks as you do so, âIâm so sorry Gus,â
With hearty laugh, the burly Scottish man pats you on the back and whispers some reassuring words, âYerâve got nothinâ ta worry about lass, I jusâ wanâed ta see if you were alâight is all,â
âIâm okay,â you smile grateful for his care only to be met with suspicious eyes and a deep, bearded frown.Â
âDonât grow a habit oâ lyinâ ta me lass, it wonât do ya any good,â his words make more heat rise to your cheeks but you reassure him as best as you can in between taking orders and serving drinks. It was no use however, Fergus saw you as his own daughter, he knew you like the back of his hand and you know that he had his suspicions of your odd behaviour lately â all derived from a sadness he didnât like you wearing. Thankfully, he decided to leave you alone with your sorrow and regret and focused back on managing the pub. Tonight was pretty average, you saw the regulars and greeted them with a friendly smile that didnât quite reach your eyes; if any of them noticed, they never said a thing about it to you. Thank god.Â
It seemed like it would be another regular night until you caught sight of a familiar figure in the corner of your eye. You had just gotten back from your break when you spot James at a far table, nursing a pint and buried under a sheet of suffocating misery all on his lonesome.Â
âJames?â you breathed in disbelief with a wide-eyed stare directed right at him.Â
âYou know that guy?â Bonnie, your coworker, asks in a whisper into your ear and you had no choice but to nod your head in confirmation â youâve already outed yourself, there was no point in lying, âwell heâs been drinkinâ himself to death for the past hour or so, whatâs gotten into him? Dâya know?â
âNoâŠâ youâre a liar.Â
âWell ya beâer find out or else imma have ta kick the poor bastard outta âere,â Fergus comments, his arms folded over his large chest and his brows knitted together in disapproval.Â
âMay Iâïżœïżœ?â you begin to ask softly, sending a curious look towards Fergus who meets your eyes with a small smile and a wink.Â
âConsider yerself off fer da night,â with a smile, you thank him and take a breath before making your way over to the miserable tattooist.Â
âAngel!â James smiles happily at the sight of you, his drunken state adding an adorable dopiness to his already charming grin, âItâs you~â he coos and wraps his arms around your middle to bury his face into your stomach when you were close enough, âI missed you so much, angel~â he sighs, his voice muffled by your clothes as he refuses to detach himself from you, âeven if this is just another dreamâŠâ you barely hear him and you almost curse yourself from being able to because his words make your heart drop to your stomach.Â
âJames,â you ask softly, âcan you please get up?âÂ
âWhy?â he shuffles to press his chin into your lower belly and stare up at you with those sweet hazel eyes of his. The sneaky bastard, he knows how weak at the knees you become from his simple stare. Youâve never told him so and often put in the effort to not show it but you know, he knows.Â
âBecause you need to go home,â he gives an incredulous look at your reasoning and heâs adorable doing so, even in his drunken state.Â
âWhy would I need to do that when youâre right here?â he slurs and hiccups, your heart pounding erratically at his words. Â
âJames pleaseââ
âNo!â
âJamesââ
ââm not going home! I wanna stay here with you,â he presses his face into your stomach again and sobs into your clothes, âyouâre gonna disappear again,â he sobs miserably, âI donât want thatâŠâÂ
âPlease just let me call you a taxi James?â he doesnât respond, pressing his face further into your stomach as you comb your fingers through his dark hair, you touch gentle and comforting, coaxing him into some compliance, âremind me of your address again and Iâll call you a taxi, okay?â
âNO!âÂ
You suppress a defeated sigh.Â
It takes several minutes of coaxing until youâre finally able to take his phone from him. He refuses to let you call him a taxi and you werenât going to force him to walk home alone in his drunken state so youâre going to have to do the one thing you can think of thatâll guarantee his safe return home. Not that youâll enjoy it because it means confrontation.Â
âCan you tell me your passcode, please, James?â you ask in a gentle whisper, only to him, âI need to do something very important on your phone,â
With a large smile he recites the digits, â22nd of the 6th, 17,â the way he says it makes your raise a brow. Sensing your curiosity, James answers your silent question, âis the day Moony, Pads and I became official,â he giggles adorably to himself as you smile somewhat sadly â another reminder that you should stay away. You donât say anything to prompt him further and, instead, type in the code before looking through his contacts. It takes you a moment but youâre eventually pressing call and waiting patiently for Remus to pick up.
ââŠJames?â Remusâ familiar, kind voice speaks tiredly through the phone and you donât know whether to breath a sigh of relief or worry, âHello?â
It takes you a moment but you finally will yourself to speak, âHey, um, Remus?âÂ
ââŠDove?â heâs in complete disbelief and itâs evident in his voice, âIs that really you?â
âuhâŠyeah,â you chirp sheepishly and Remus is all forms of elated but his excitement dwindles quickly when he realises how youâre able to call him.Â
âWhy do you have Jamesâ phone?â you were right to call him, knowing that he was preceptive, reasonable and easy to talk to even with the tension in the air. Patiently, you explain the situation, never taking your fingers away from Jamesâ hair as he practically purrs into your form, adoring the physical contact and muttering to himself happily. Itâs especially loveable like this, considering that itâs him being dopey and giggly and not anyone else.
âOhâŠâ Remus sighs, clearly disappointed, âIâm so sorry, darling, Iâll get him right away,âÂ
âItâs no trouble, Rem,â it was hard not to cringe when the familiar nickname easily rolls off your tongue. As if nothing happened â oh how you wish for such a reality!
âJust tell me where you are and Iâll be right over,â you donât know if youâre just imagining it but thereâs a considerable shift in his voice, he sounds much softer after hearing his nickname easily fall from your lips.Â
âWeâre at the Boar and Elephant pub on Chapel Road,âÂ
âAlright, Iâll be there soon,â with a click, he was gone and you were left to keep James satisfied until he got there. It wasnât an overly tough job; James seemed perfectly content nuzzling into your stomach with his arms hugging you in place as your fingers massage his scalp and gently groom his hair. Heâs like a puppy, eager to receive affectionate cuddles and pets. If he had a tail, heâd be wagging it like crazy and you giggle to yourself at the mental image it conjures up.Â
âI missed thatâŠâ James mutters, maybe to himself but it wasnât clear.
âIâm sorry?â
âI miss the sound of you giggling,â you donât know what to say but he continues, going off on a tangent, âitâs so pretty, youâre so pretty. Itâs like the sound of a cute little bell ringingâŠso prettyâ pretty pretty pretty!â you canât lie to yourself, heâs absolutely precious, âI miss you so much angel, why did you go away? I donât want you away, I want you with me, and with Remus and with Sirius tooâŠâ he murmurs something into your stomach that you werenât able to pick up but donât press him further on the matter, fearing that your heart might just about burst if you do. You canât afford to hope for such a fantasy with them when it could never become a reality.Â
It just wasnât possibleâŠ
âNot fair!âJames whines, making grabby hands at you as Remus, with the force of a gentle giant, manoeuvres him into the back seat of a red Jaguar XJR. Dealing with a defiant baby was a struggle so dealing with a giant, beefy baby like James Potter was like trying to control a hurricane. But Remus had a magic touch and arguably had more of a silver tongue than Sirius did so he made it look like a walk in the park. It was astounding, âI wanna be with my angel!â James sobs as Remus closes the door on him, putting a stop to Jamesâ needy cries.Â
âSheâs not yours, sheâs no oneâs,â was Remusâ response even though he had already closed the door, James unable to hear him and the hint of dismay coherent in his tired voice, âthank you for looking after him, Dove, youâre always too kind,â
âN-no, donât worry about it,â he smiles down at you, silence filling up the space between your two lonely figures under the amber lamplight. He doesnât seem to mind the hush in conversation but knowing that his eyes were fixed on you was unnerving, âso! Is that your car?â you ask, desperate for a change in conversation; your restless fiddling making your intentions obvious but Remus keeps to himself.Â
âNo, no, itâs not mine,â he answers with a short chuckle, âthis is Jamesâ car,â
âOhâŠâ you hum to yourself thoughtfully, eyes carefully examining the body and model of the car, âI see,â it looks like a car James would have, you think to yourself. There was more silence until Remus finally brings himself to commence your farewells.Â
âWell I suppose I should head off, I donât want to take up too much of your time,â your heart stutters, almost to a stop, at his words, even more so when you see him hesitate upon leaning down. A victim to your own habits, you find yourself closing your eyes and awaiting his gentle kiss goodbye against your temple.
âŠBut it never comes.
âGoodbye then,â he calls over his shoulder, and rounds the car to get to the driverâs seat.Â
ââDo you smoke?â you suddenly ask, in some part desperate to extend your interaction with each other and other parts curious of the lingering cigarette smoke you smell on his clothes, masking his usually comforting fragrance. Itâs strong enough that you were able to catch it from your formal amount of distance with each other and it struck you as odd. You had never seen him smoke before.Â
Remus laughs a brief and strained sound as he looks at you from over the hood of the car, did he always have such deep eye-bags? âNot usually,â he sends you a sheepish smile once youâre finally able to meet his eyes, âbut Iâve recently taken to it again,â he sees worry and grief fill your eyes and hurries to correct himself, ââBut donât worry, Dove,â his features are gentle and kind, warm and⊠forgiving, âIâm okay,âÂ
The world slows as you watch him bend his head to sit in the drivers seat. Itâs been too long. For you, at least. This canât continue. It scares you to think about where this may go if you leave it to late. Itâs only been three weeks! If this is the resultâŠyou dread to think about what would happen if things went on for longer than that. James is drinking himself to death. Remus is smoking cigarettes. What about Sirius? Your stomach twists uncomfortably, painfully, your heart too.Â
âNo! Youâre not!â you shout, tears of anger welling up in your eyes as Remus stops and looks over at you once again, his breath hitching when he sees your eyes glistening with tears, âyouâre not okayâŠâÂ
âDoveââ
âIâm coming by tomorrow,â you announce, âat lunch,â this was a commitment youâre making, a commitment to him, to them. Even if youâre heartbroken, that doesnât give you the right to be a bad friend. You brave a watery smile, âIâll make your favouritesâŠso you better be there!â
â NEXT : 06 | SELFISH DESIRES
A/N : iâm so sooo sorry for my depiction of the scottish accent, i really tried my best, please donât hate me! if you have any ideas of how i could make it better, please say so, iâd really appreciate it. Also, i know that this isnât completely fluff but weâre getting there, youâll have to wait and see in the next chapter!Â

Rindou Haitani's Girlfriend
Ran might get himself a girl that matches his freak on napping for 11 hours, but Rindou will absolutely get the humorous girlfriend.
The first time he met you was in đpolice station đhe was 12 and had just gotten arrested with his brother Ran, who was 13 then. You sat with the handcuffs on, kicking your feet looking around and being so calm it made him question how the hell were you so calm. You just turned 12, and it was a day before your birthday party. The moment you noticed the as the police officer let him and ran sit on one of the chairs opposite from you, you waved at him with a smile. The officer went to write the report, and you got up from your chair and walked to sit next to them. "Nice hair!" You told Ran, "That's not a wig, right?" Ran laughed, shaking his head, and Rin rolled his eyes at you. "Why are a kid like you doing here?" Rin asked, "Oh, I just wanted to know how handcuffs feel like that's why I busted the cops car window to get arrested." You said with a smile, "No shit, are you crazy?" Ran laughed. "Aren't you too little to be arrested?" Rin asked, and you shrugged, "I'm twelve, I'm actually twelve tomorrow and I'm having a birthday party, hey, wanna come to my birthday party?" You told Rin with a soft smile. He felt his cheeks burn, and then you turned to look at Ran, "if you want, I'll write you the address." Ran just laughed, "you're one crazy girl. Happy birthday, by the way." Rin sighed, "Happy birthday, whatever." You laughed, "Aww, thank you, I'm Y/n!" Ran turned his side to face you now because he thought you were interesting, "I'm Ran, and this is Rindou. My baby brother." You smiled in an aww. That was the last time Rin saw you.
Five years later; he saw you again. Rin had just gotten some serious job done and was heading back home, walking under the cold nights with snow all over the streets. His eyes on his phone screen; reading an email Ran sent him when someone sprinted past him. He didn't bother to look until he heard the footsteps stop, and someone called out his name, made him almost jump. "RINRIN?" He turned back ready to attack whoever called him with hands in front of him and his heart almost stopped when he saw a girl, no, he saw you waving as you ran towards him happily? You caught your breath as you stopped in front of him, titling your head to side, "it's me! Y/n! Remember me the girl from the police station? Oh, that's funny to say." He blinked a few times before speaking and looking at your clothes that were not warm at all. You were dressed in a white shirt and baggy jeans with a weird hat that looked too big for your head. "Yeah, I remember you. You weirdo, why are you dressed like that in the middle of December? Are you trying to die?" He asked, rolling his eyes as he took his heavy sweater off and threw it over you. Making you laugh as you removed the sweater from your head, revelling your smile that made his breath hitch. "I'm jogging trying to run a mile and trying to find out if I can define the cold." He sighed, taking his sweater from your hand and putting your hands in it, then the other, "Yeah, define the devil when you die from cold and get thrown in hell." You laughed at his words. You looked behind him, "Where's your brother? Does he still have his long hair? Wait, your hair kinda looks cool!" Rin rolled his eyes, "you still remember him too. You shouldn't be out at this time of night all alone. You don't know what type of people are out here." You shrugged, taking your phone out and snatched his from his hand, "I'll save my number in your phone, here call me so I can save yours." You handed him the phone and waited for him to call. He looked at him phone then back at you and called. Your face lights up when your phone rang, and you waved it at him with a giggle, "I'll see you soon. Bye bye" you said before walking the other way.
Rin would lie if he said he didn't wait a whole day for you to call. He kept checking his phone every other minute. It's been a whole day now, and you still haven't called. Maybe you didn't care. It was around 12 at night when his phone rang. He picked it up without looking at the name, "RIN RIN!" He sat from where he was sleeping on the bed. "Y/n?" You laughed at his question, "Duh, who else would it be?" He tried to hide his stupid smile even if you weren't there to see it, "Why you calling me this late?" He tried to sound annoyed, but you laughed again. "I couldn't sleep, saw a really scary movie now I'm regretting life and I can't even get up to pee what if the lady with white dress attacks me in the bathroom?" He chuckled at your words rolling his eyes. "And you want me to do what?" He replied. "Stay on the phone with me until I fall asleep!" You replied excitement in your voice, and he felt his face burning; don't couple do these kinds of things? He thought. Nevertheless, he didn't mind staying on the call as you rambled about random things. He could hear you trying hard to stay awake by the time it was 3 in the morning so he decided to be the one talking as you just replied in a hum, he talked in a low voice until he heard you snoring softly on the other side of the call. He chuckled, "idiot. Sleep well." He whispered before putting his phone beside him still on the call.
When you decided to return his sweater, he "forgot" to tell Ran that you were coming honestly he kept asking Ran if he has to be somewhere so when you'll arrive you won't see Ran. Rin wasn't jealous. He's just Rin. Ran heard the bell rang and went to answer the door, "Yes?" He asked when he saw you; at first, he didn't recognise you until you smiled, throwing your hands open, "Ran!" His eyes widened, and he smiled, "Oh shit, it's my favourite prisoner! Come here. " He pulled you up in a hug, and you laughed, "Oh, look at you all grown up. How did you?-, wait, RIN? Y/N IS HERE!" Rin tried to act unbothered when he saw his brother wrap you in a hug, "I met Rin last week, and I came by to return his sweater." Ran looked at his brother, wiggling his brows as you walked behind Ran, Rin rolled his eyes, "she was jogging in a shirt and jeans, " Rin stated. You handed him the bag that had his sweater, and it smelled like you. "So Rin has been gatekeeping you from me? And look at you, you look so beautiful now. You've grown so much!" Ran said, holding your hands as he sat on the couch, and you were standing in front of him. He nodded with a smile, "Your hair changed. It's black here. Looks so cool." You said pointing at his hair, "thanks Gorgeous." You snorted at his compliment, "stawppp, you're making me blush." Ran pulled you to the couch beside him, "come sit with me. How have you been?wow, I can't believe you look so beautiful." Rin groaned, "you said that like a million times since she got here. It's been a minute." You laughed at the two brothers. Ran pinched your cheek, "No more jail, ha?" You shook your head freeing yourself from his grip. "No, sir." You said. Rin watched from where he stood at you talking with his brother. He wanted you to talk to him and sit this close to him.
You'd often run into each other on your way, and you'd always cling to Rin's arm, and he really didn't get bothered by it.
Late night calls were a regular thing. Rin would always wait for you to call him and ramble.
Until one night, you didn't call, nor has he seen you for two days in a row. He was working on a file when the bell ran at 1 am, he thoughts it's probably some random person that will go away ringing the bell on a rainy night but it ran again and he was ready to deal with whoever it was flinging the door open just when he was about to shout. Rin's heart dropped at the sight of you in tears, and you looked distressed as you hugged him crying. He's never seen you cry, and his mind went blank the moment he saw you crying and a small bruise on your lip immediately anger filled his eyes as he shut the door moving you in with him. "Who did this to you?" He asked, and you cried, "my boyfriend hit me." Let's just say that "boyfriend" now ex, apparently lost an arm the next day.
That night, Rin didn't let you leave his sight as he made you change into much comfortable pyjamas of his that looked way too big on you. He even dried your hair after the shower. You were tired, so he let you sleep in his bed, covering you with all his soft blankets as he went back to grab his laptop to work on a file. He sat beside the bed working when you moved in your sleep, brows frowned, he placed his hand on yours hushing you softly and You grabbed his hand in sleep pulling it closer to your heart. Rin's eyes widened, and he flustered, but he also knew you probably needed comfort after whatever you bo-ex did.
Rin didn't want you to leave him or the house when you can be here, safe. And you got used to his care that you just clung on him EVERYWHERE he went; he really didn't mind. It took you a few days to go back to your normal self, joking around and making Rin smile at your words, but it KILLED him every time he'd see that scar under your mouth. He wanted to KILL your ex, but you've long moved on.
You two didn't even make it official that you two liked each other it just happened. None of you asked the other if you'd date each other, but Rin would break anyone's hand if they even looked at you.
One day, you were liying on his lap on the couch watching TV, and you turned to look at him, "Are you my boyfriend?" You asked, making his face turn different shades of red, but he tried to look confident and looked down at you, "Yes?" That came out shaky. You nodded and went back to watching the TV only to get off his lap and cuddle his arm beside him; oh, you loved holding his arm and placing your face on his shoulder. You'd find different positions to sit near him, and each one never fails to surprise him. You got up and sat on his lap, wrapping your arms around his middle part and snuggling into him or you'd sit upside down on the couch beside him to which he always grabs you and pulls you on his lap with your head on his chest. "Hushh, sit still. I'm trying to watch this." You'll always fall asleep in his arms he's just that comfortable to you.
You have to hug his arms every time you sleep. And he just stares at you with a smile, glad that he saw you that day in the police station.
He's only soft for you and does everything you want and deserve, which is not much because you barely ask him anything other than his skilled cooking.
You are dear to him.

Yandere Radio host x reader
Victor Rodriguez was the most popular radio host there was to date! He had late night talks shows, was always on the evening and morning radio, and was super charismatic! Only problem? He didn't have a co-star. But you'd make a lovely co-star.
Warnings: Mature language, addresses being leaked (only to yandere), stalking, car tampering, hero complex, mentions of abusive households
You swear that Victor was always on the air! Day and night, on every station. You could've sworn nobody listened to radio anymore! But apparently, with this new hotshot, everybody did now.
It's not that you disliked the man. He didn't do anything wrong. Surprisingly, unlike other radio hosts, he wasn't that boastful. But you were just sick of hearing him all the damn time.
Eventually, you tuned in (your friends wanted you to listen to him for once), and you made the mistake of accidentally calling in.
"Hello, this is Victor Rodriguez speaking! Who do I have the pleasure of talking to?" Oh wow, he answered the radio like it was just a normal contact in his phone!
You two had a surprising, really meaningful conversation! He didn't talk over you, poke fun at you for his listeners, and actually remembered things about you in the short time you talked.
You actually emailed him (he has a work email), and he responded back! You two emailed for a bit before exchanging numbers since you had made plans to hang out with him!
_______________________
Shit! You were running late! Your car just wouldn't start, and now you don't even know if he's still there. But before you could call a mechanic, a black car pulled into your driveway, and a very concerned Victor immediately jumped out of his car. "Are you okay? You didn't show up for a while, and I was worried if you got into an accident!" You felt your face heat up and start to turn pink. No man had ever done what he did. Usually, they just got impatient and left at the first minute. But Victor... he actually went looking for you. To make sure you were safe.
"Yeah sorry, my car just won't fucking start." You explained, pointing at your car which was a pretty old model. Victor cocked his head, peering into the car, before looking back at you. "You got tools so we can pop the hood up? Maybe it's the engine." What happened next you had no control over. It was magic even. You opened the hood, grabbed a toolbox out of your garage, and handed it to him. In the next 30 minutes, he had fixed whatever problem your car had.
Victor turned back to look at you with a goofy smile, and you swore your heart was moving a mile too fast. "All done! But the ice cream parlor is probably closing by now. Do you wanna just hang out here?" He asked, and you nodded your head immediately. It was surprisingly a really nice day with him! You both had a cookout, lounged in the sun, and even had a water balloon fight. You were having so much fun, you let one thing slip your mind.
How the hell did he know where you lived.
_______________________
Okay, so maybe he has every caller's address show to him and only him so he can stay safe. It's not his fault! He didn't know if his step-dad was still looking for him.
After he ran away from his abusive household (promising his mother and little siblings, he'd come back and save them from his step-dad's wrath), he immediately got picked up from a small radio station who needed a new radio host after the last one quit.
Clearly, he was better than what he expected because now he had worked his way up to the top radio station and was on nearly every channel!
So when you called in, he just expected a regular old caller, like always. But you... you were different. You actually talked to him. You made him feel alive in a way he didn't know was possible.
So he may have copied your address down just in case he needed to give you a surprise visit, but hey, who's really paying attention? Not him, and apparently not you either cause you did not have a care in the world when he showed up at your house.
You didn't even know that your car was perfectly fine the night before. But it's okay! Because he got to come to the rescue when your car wouldn't start! Even if he was the one who fucked up your engine so he could play hero.
But it's fine! Cause you didn't care, and let him play the hero. You let him be your savior! And that was perfect for him. You were perfect.
Just let him keep playing the hero. You need a hero in this world with someone as perfect as you. Just keep tuning in, and let him save you.

How to Call Your Reps About Gaza
I make a lot of posts telling you to call your reps! Anyway, here's the overall shape of how to argue to them.
Disclaimer: I am not in politics. I do not have experience as a staffer. I am just someone who cares a lot about where things are going, and wants to help. Also, this is specific to the US, because that's where I'm based. Hopefully, people with expertise can add more suggestions on.
Find your elected officials.
My Ko-fi: this took me two days to write up, so uh. If you've got a few dollars, send them my way so I can keep doing this sort of thing, and maybe move out of my parents' house sooner.
General tips:
Be polite, or at least civil. Do not swear or shout at whoever answers the phone. This will quite possibly get your number blocked. Fifty civil calls over the course of several months will do more than one where you shout. You can be frosty, you can say you are disappointed, you can say you find the actions of your reps to be reprehensible or morally bankrupt, sure. But keep calm and aim criticism at the rep, not the staffer.
Keep it short. The staffers who answer call centers are busy. They usually start trying to hurry me off after about two minutes. I've yet to manage a call longer than four or five minutes. Pick one or two topics for the day, and focus on those. Cycle through them every time you call. Stick to just one from day to day if it's a large, ongoing issue like Gaza.
Plan for voicemail. I get voicemail more often than not. My House rep usually has a staffer free, but the Senators are almost always voicemail. This will give you a minute and a half max. Be ready to get your point squeezed into that.
Only call your representatives. The important, powerful word here is "constituent." You will be ignored or even counted against if you are from a different district or state. The first thing you start with is your name and address. A staffer will ask for the information they need. On voicemail, leave your full name, your city and state, and zip code before you go into your message. Do not lie, either. They look these things up in the system when you call. I'm not sure how--I think maybe they have access to a database of registered voters--but every time I call, they ask for my last name and address and at some point say, 'oh, yep, I've got you right here,' which indicates a database of some sort.
Research at least a little bit about their opinions. If they already agree with you, then it's much easier to leave a quick "I support you and want you to know that" to combat anyone who's arguing from the other side. If they don't, then you're best off finding out what specific issue they have so you can know the best kind of comment to leave.
Look up specific bills or arguments. I get daily emails from GovTrack about bills that are on this week's docket or have been voted on in the past day. IDK about anyone else, but being able to say that I disagree specifically with HR 815 or something makes me feel powerful, and possibly like I will be taken more seriously. Sometimes you can start with articles like this one, which include links to specific bills on the official congress website.
Email after if you can. Reportedly less effective, and takes longer, but you are more likely to get a written (canned) response, and it reinforces whatever you called about.
Basic structure of a call, at least as I've been doing it:
"Hi, my name is ____ ____, and I am a constituent from [city, state], [zip]. I am calling to express my opinion on [topic]. I am concerned about [short argument with a clear impact on the topic]. I ask that you support [measure or fellow congress member]/vote [yay/nay on specific legislature]. Thank you for your time, and I hope you keep my opinion in mind."
For this post, the topic can be stated as the war in Gaza, military funding for Israel, or unrest in the Middle East, depending on which you think your elected official will respond to best. That said, the structure should work for whatever your call is about.
Arguments to use against your elected official... or your on-the-fence cousin:
I'll be honest, some of these are not going to do much against your representative. They know the arguments, and have been going over them with each other for months. You just need to have one locked and loaded that they consider relevant instead of a nonstarter, in order to back up your opinion as 'founded' instead of 'nonsense, can be swayed with a good marketing campaign.'
I'll include explanations if I don't think something is self-evident (or needs more evidence to tell your cousin), but in most of them I'll provide some suggested verbiage that you can tweak as needed, and for a few of them, that's really enough.
THESE ARE FOR THE TOPIC OF CONCERN, ONLY. You still need to end each one with "I ask that the [official] votes to [action]" at the end. Give them something actionable (example from Feb. 13th). My go-tos right now:
Both chambers: Reinstate funding for UNRWA
Both chambers: Place mandatory restrictions on any aid to Israel, with contractual threats to cut funding if Netanyahu and his government continue to disregard civilian life
Senate: Put support behind Bernie Sanders and his motion to restrict funding to Israel until a humanitarian review of the IDFâs actions in Gaza has been completed (S.R. 504) (Tabled by the Senate on 1/16, but it is being brought back in as conditions continue to escalate)
House: Put support behind Rep. Rashida Tlaibâs petition for the US government to recognize the IDFâs actions in Gaza as ethnic cleansing and forced displacement, and put a stop to it.
House: Put support behind H.R. 786, introduced by Rep. Cori Bush, calling for an immediate deescalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine.
What Not to Say
"There is no threat to Israel." I've talked about this elsewhere, but the short version is that this will be basically laughed out as you not knowing what you're talking about.
Anything generically antisemitic. (I mean, it might work on some of the white supremacists, but do you really want to encourage that thinking? No, so don't do it.)
Facts that you "heard somewhere" but cannot find a reliable source for. If it's being reported by the New York Times, NPR, or the BBC, it's probably trustworthy by government standards. If it's not a super common statistic, cite the journal you got it from by name. Remember, you aren't arguing to tumblr mutuals. You are arguing to your elected official or your 'I don't really pay attention' cousin. When it comes to this, big name news sources are better.
Unrealistic demands for complete isolationism, permanently abandoning Israel to its own devices, supporting Hamas, etc. Again, you will not be taken seriously. Pick an argument they might actually listen to, and use it to press them towards a possible solution. You want them to believe that if they adjust their position, they will be doing the will of most of their constituents, and thus more likely to get reelected.
The Ethics Argument
Third-party reporting has stated that that nearly 29,000 Gazans are dead since Oct. 7th, as of 2/18/24. The vast majority of those are civilians, and over half are children. Palestinians in Gaza are facing an acute hunger crisis threatening to become a full-blown famine.
The International Court of Justice has found that there is credible reason to believe that the state of Israel is committing a genocide against the Palestinians of Gaza.
This does not mean that every single Israeli is complicit. It does mean that the government, particularly Netanyahu and his associates, has been reprimanded by a large, diverse coalition of countries, and has consistently refused to listen to that court since.
This argument will possibly work on your cousin. Less likely to work on your elected official. They already know the numbers. I just wanted to get it out of the way first.
The Re-Election Argument: Michigan vs New York
Meanwhile, this is possibly the most effective. Again, this is not an argument of ethics. This is an argument of "how can I make my elected official do what I want." We do not use only the purest moral argument. We use what works.
What to say to your elected official: Michigan, as a swing state, was won by democrats on the power of the Arab-American vote in the 2020 election. We (either party) are at risk of losing Michigan due to the current Congressional approach to the Gaza conflict, as that demographic is now polling as likely to abstain from voting entirely. The risk of losing several congressional districts due to the Jewish vote is a real one, but the risk of losing the the executive branch is greater, especially after what we saw with Suozzi. Supporting Palestine might lose us parts of New York, but supporting Israel will lose us Michigan.
Explanation: Something that has been taking up a lot of time and space in the election coverage is the situation in Michigan, and more recently, there has been attention paid to the special election of New York's third district, AKA the "who gets to replace disgraced George Santos" competition.
Michigan is traditionally a swing state. While 2.1% doesn't sound like a lot, that is some 211k-278k people (depending on your source), and while not all of them can vote... Michigan was won by about 154k. Arab-Americans are not the only relevant demographic, but they sure are an important one, and they are vocally opposed to the situation. Approval has dropped from 59% to 17%. From that same article:
As Axios notes, Biden won Michigan in 2020 by 154,000 votes, but there are at least 278,000 Arab Americans in Michigan. Biden took Arizona, a state with an Arab American population of 60,000, by only 10,500 votes. In Georgia, Biden prevailed with a margin of 11,800 voters, in a state that has an Arab American population of 57,000.
Democrats cannot afford to lose these states. Pressure your congresspeople about that, especially if you live in one of those states. I assume most Arab-Americans in said states are already calling every day; the rest of you can join in.
Meanwhile, most Jews (considered the most pro-Israel demographic by strategists) in America are concentrated in a very small number of electoral districts. Of the twenty most-Jewish, ten are in New York, which is why I put it up in the section header.
One of those districts was won by a Republican in 2022: George Santos, New York's third congressional district. Following his scandals and ousting, the seat was up for a special election, and the two candidates were Tom Suozzi, a democrat who held the seat previously (he decided to run for governor, and lost), and Mazi Pilip, a Nassau county legislator who was of Ethiopian Jewish background and had been in the IDF. She ran on a campaign that leaned strongly pro-Israel and anti-immigration, and when Suozzi won, she interrupted his victory speech to accuse him of supporting a genocide against Israel due to his rather centrist, rather milquetoast stance on the conflict during his election campaign.
Now, Suozzi's win probably had more to do with Pilip being anti-choice than her pro-Israel arguments, but he still won.
Democrats can better risk possibly losing a few seats in NY than definitely losing three swing states.
"But I don't want Dems to win their districts after what they've been--" Nope. Listen to me. Surveys indicate that Republicans are on average more pro-Israel, because Trump and Netanyahu are buddy-buddy, and we do not have a viable third option.
Also, again, this is about convincing Dems to be better. "If you do not vote to put restrictions on funding to Israel, I will not vote for you in November" is a lot more powerful than "I will not vote for you either way, because of what you've been doing, but you should do what I say anyway."
The Re-Election Argument: Risk of Escalation
So, that thing I said about Trump and Netanyahu?
Yeah, so, while Biden is giving Israel military aid while cautioning them to slow down and be careful, Trump is... complicated, but suffice to say he's much closer to Netanyahu on a personal level than Biden is. Biden's relation with Netanyahu is reportedly pretty frosty, while Trump's is based on relations through the Kushners.
Just from wikipedia:
Netanyahu made his closeness to Donald Trump, a personal friend since the 1980s, central to his political appeal in Israel from 2016.[21] During Trump's presidency, the United States recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and brokered the Abraham Accords, a series of normalization agreements between Israel and various Arab states.
Trump's been more all-over-the-place recently, badmouthing Netanyahu for being what Trump perceives as a loser, which complicates understanding what his approach is. It's kind of incoherent right now.
Given Trump's general history of being pro-Israel, though, and the attempts by House Republicans to push through a bill of unconditional funding for Israel. It failed, but notable is that the more recent bill passed in part because it was paired with aid for Ukraine and Taiwan (something Dems are much more invested in having happen).
What to say to your elected official: If Trump is reelected due to his current appearance of being more critical of Netanyahu, there is evidence from his presidency to indicate that he will support Israel much less critically if elected. While he claims to want to settle the Middle East, it seems incredibly likely that he will worsen the situation for Palestinians, and ramp up retaliatory strikes to groups like the Houthis in a manner that will impact non-military parties, igniting tensions that are already tenuous.
The Disrespect/Wild Card Argument
This particular argument is best used against the Very Patriotic Politicians who are more concerned with the US's image and Being The Alpha Nation than with other things. Basically, this might work on Republicans.
This isn't really something I believe in, as a matter of foreign policy, buuuut it might work on your rep, so. Consider it!
What to say to your elected official: With Israel's recent actions in ignoring Biden, blocking US-sent aid like those flour trucks that got stopped at the Rafah border because they'd be distributed by UNWA, and generally Disrespecting The USA and Being Unpredictable is not only making the US look bad for being unable to wrangle a smaller country, but also making it so we are less able to wrangle other countries in the future, because Israel cannot be predicted and might set someone off.
The Europe and Reputation Argument
What to say to your elected official: The United States is losing credibility as a world power known for its military and ability to manage international disputes on behalf of the UN, because it is seemingly unable to influence Israel, and losing credibility as an upstanding moral state that is not doing foreign coups and banana republics anymore, as it appears to be tacitly supporting Israel's ICJ-labelled genocide, which is a really bad look with the other Western Powers.
I'm not entirely sure who this might work on, but there's gotta be at least a few politicians who are really concerned about America's image, more than about actually doing the right thing. Figure out if your politician is one of them.
If necessary, you can bring up how Trump is threatening to pull US support for NATO if Russia attacks someone.
The Middle East Stability Argument: Iran-backed Militias
What to say to your elected official: I'm concerned that the continued support of Israel, and thus the funding of their actions in Gaza, will increase the instability of Iran-backed militias, as we have already seen with the Houthis and Hezbollah. Entire Muslim-majority nations are showing increased displeasure not only with Israel, but with the US by extension. We cannot afford another war in the Middle East when we haven't yet pulled all our troops from the last one, not with the recent and recurring economic recessions. Any situation would also very likely be complicated or inflamed by the growing tensions among Eritrea, Djibouti, and Ethiopia regarding Red Sea access as well.
Use this on the ones that claim to be pro-military or pro-veteran. See what they said about HR 815 before the foreign military funding amendment was added.
The Middle East Stability Argument: Egypt
What to say to your elected official: Egypt's government has been unstable since the Arab Spring, and even now the military government is incredibly unpopular. With that existing instability, the addition of economic strain from the reduced usage of the Suez canal, the international disputes occurring because they're the main throughway for aid into Gaza, and the threat of a sudden influx of nearly one and a half million Palestinian refugees should Israel continue to push south... Egypt is looking at a possible near-collapse as we've seen in nearby nations suffering similar instabilities.
Explanation: It took several years for Egypt to really start recovering from the revolts in 2013, and it has applied for four IMF loans in recent years. The current government is unpopular to such a degree that they are looking to build an entire new capital from scratch in the middle of the desert so that they're less open to the risk of civilian uprisings; one of the primary causes for civilian dissatisfaction is economic issues.
Due to Houthi attacks at the Bab al-Mandab Strait, traffic through the Suez canal is down massively, and since the canal "represents almost 5% of the GNP and 10% of GDP and is one of Egyptâs most important sources of hard currency." (src) Various sources are reporting that trade through the canal is down 40-50%, which is putting more strain on the already unstable economic and political situation.
Finally, Egypt's population is about 110 million, but the governorate that shares a border with Israel and Gaza, North Sinai, has a population of barely 500,000. A push of one and a half million starving, injured people will, very suddenly, nearly quadruple the population of the governorate, and require extreme aid response from Egypt's government to keep alive and prevent a larger crisis in North Sinai and neighboring governorates.
The Middle East Stability Argument: Normalized Relations
What to say to your elected official: I am concerned that Israel's continued attack on Gaza is jeopardizing any chance of normalized relations with the Arab states in the future. American has put a lot of work into trying to get these various countries to normalize with Israel, and our funding of the current attacks on Gaza are sabotaging all that effort.
This one can be combined with the Iran-Backed Militias argument: Israel, in pursuit of revenge against Hamas, is setting itself up to be in more danger long-term, rather than less.
The International Trade Argument
What to say to your elected official: I am concerned about how the war in Gaza is impacting international trade and shipping costs. With the Suez Canal down to half its usual capacity and the Panama Canal raising costs and dropping capacity in response to the water restrictions, along with rising fuel costs in Europe and Asia, global trade is incredibly strained. We are being relegated to the Cape of Good Hope, Cape Horn, and the Malacca strait for much of intercontinental trade, and the macroeconomic projections are looking very bad for America.
The Domestic Economics Argument
What to say to your elected official: Many of the plans for Israeli military funding cause damage to other parts of the budget. For instance, a recent plan put forward by the Republicans of the House suggested IRS cuts in order to move that money, a plan which would impact the US budget negatively in the long term; we need those 14 billion being spent domestically, not supporting an overreaction/possible genocide in Gaza.
Explanation: In general, pick something receiving budget cuts that your congressperson will care about. I care about IRS funding, and saw it mentioned as a target in an article, so that's what I've got in my suggested verbiage up there.
The fewer people that are working for the IRS, the more they focus on auditing poor people (simple, easy taxes) and the less they can effectively audit rich people (complicated, time-consuming taxes), which means rich people are more likely to get away with evading millions or even billions in taxation. So yeah, you want more funding in the IRS if you are poor. They are already auditing you. You want them to audit the big guys.
The Russia and China Argument
What to say to your elected official: I am worried that the current focus on funding Israel without restriction is causing us to lose sight of the international threat posed by Russia and China. Russia is actively invading Ukraine, which continues to put massive strain on the European economy with regards to oil prices, especially with the Suez situation, and China has been testing missiles near Taiwan, and thus testing US responsiveness to those threats, for months now. We cannot afford to support an internationally unpopular war if we want to remain ready for Russia and China.
This is less likely to work on Republicans, since Trump is friendly with Russia, but hey, give it a shot if they're one of the ones who aren't fully in his camp.
EDIT 2/22/24: I'm a bit unsure of this tactic, but I'm putting it out there with hopes that someone with more political experience can offer feedback:
"Congress, and the US government in general, has promised to sanction Russia for the alleged assassination of one man within a week of the suspicious death, after five months of refusing to enact even slight consequences on Israel for the deaths of nearly thirty thousand, half of which are children. This is ethically questionable at best, but for the interests of elected officials, it is a very bad look. The mismatch shows a massive bias by the American government in regards to Israel's ongoing mass murder, with over two million facing famine as a result of Israel's aid blocking, and America's reputation on the world stage, as well as individual politicians' reputations domestically with constituents, is plummeting."
-------------------------------------
Finally, my ko-fi again. I spent a long time on this and I'd like to move out of my parents' house sooner rather than later. If you appreciate my time and effort, please feel free to donate a couple bucks.

Neighbors With Benefits: Part 8 (Joel Miller x f!reader)
Part of the #hotdolfsummerchallenge @hellishjoel
Pairing: Joel Miller x f!reader
Words: 3000
Warning: angst
You were smitten. Head over heels. Everything felt perfect. The only stressor in the back of your mind were the lies you continued to tell your parents about your whereabouts. It wasnât enough to become the focal point of your thoughts. That night you laid with Joel without a care in the world.
âI could do this every day,â you spoke in a sleepy, quiet voice. You laid naked, back pressed into his bare chest as Joel cuddled his body around you.
âMaybe we could make it a habit then,â he whispered into your ear from behind. His arm snaked over the top of yours and your fingers linked together.
The night was peaceful and you didn't remember waking up even once overnight at Joelâs house. That next morning you were walking on air. After prepping him a coffee and accompanying him to the door, Joel gave you a kiss that screamed, âI miss you and I'm not even away from you yetâ.
When your phone chimed in your pocket, he looked intrigued and so you pulled it out. A new email, highlighted by a red number one at the bottom of your phone, caught your eye.
âEmail.â It was about one of the applications you had filled out a few towns away. A smile formed on your face as you lip-read their desire to interview you. âBee Cave wants me to interview with them.â
âThat's amazing, baby.â Joel leaned in, pulling you to him by the back of your head. Your lips touched again and it was several seconds before he let you go. âWhat's there like ten residents in Bee Cave?â He teased, âSounds like a safe enough town.â
âMm hmm. And it's only twenty minutes away.â
âPerfect.â He kissed you again.
âHey, Joel!â Your eyes widened and you parted from him, practically pushing back off his chest, when you heard your fatherâs voice.
Joelâs eyebrows raised and he soft-closed the door while addressing him.
You leaned an ear to the door as you heard your father extend an invitation to a picnic your parents were having that weekend. When Joel accepted you smiled to yourself, though you couldn't deny your heart rate had increased.
What would my father do if he found me here? You truly didn't know the answer.
âDo you play golf?â Your father asked next.
âHere and there,â Joel responded.
âWe need a fourth guy Friday,â he went on. âOnly doing the back nine, not eighteen. Thinking about happy hour time after work.â
âOh, uh..â Joel cleared his throat, âI think I could play, yeah. I get out of work at three.â
âHowâs about four-thirty? You know the course in town, right?â
âYup.â He paused, âIt's been a while since I've played.â
âNot to worry, we really just play for some fresh, a little exercise and a couple of beers.â
âSounds good.â
The discussion ended with your father excusing himself to go to work and Joel claiming he forgot something inside. When the door reopened, Joelâs eyebrows were raised and he shut it quickly before leaning his back against it.
âDid I just hear you make golfing plans with my father?â
âYou did.â He nodded and smiles spread on both of your faces simultaneously.
âGood opportunity to tell him about us,â you teased, closing the gap between you and resting both of your hands on his broad chest. Your lips pressed against his and Joel's head leaned back against the door.
âI don't think the best time would be when he has a golf club in his hand.â
You snickered against him and pulled back so you were face-to-face. âI guess I'll make plans with the real Holly Friday night then. Since you have a hot date with my dad.â
âI could use the company afterwards.â
âMmm..â you leaned back in and kissed him a little firmer. Arousal surged through your body when his tongue massaged yours. When Joel suddenly picked you up so you were seated in hands, your lips parted from his and you wrapped your arms instinctively around the back of his neck.
âAll this sneaking around and almost getting caught turns me on,â he admitted, speaking quietly despite the two of you being alone. Joel's lips pecked yours.
âMe too,â you admitted pecking his lips another few times in a row. Your legs wrapped firmly around the outsides of his hips. âMaybe we should do something about it.â
âMmm..â he hummed the response, beginning to walk with you still in his arms down toward the bedroom. âI have seven minutes.â
You kissed him as he walked blindly with his eyes closed now. âI'll make them all count.â
***
The rest of the day you spent running errands, grocery shopping for your parents and buying a new outfit for your upcoming interview. The world felt like it was at your fingertips; a new beginning - both professionally and personally.
As you swept through the grocery store, a thought crossed your mind. You whipped out your phone and texted Joel: Can I cook for you tonight?
Only a minute or so went by before he replied: I ain't gonna deny that.
You smiled. What would you like?
The three dots on your screen disappeared a few times before Joel's response of âanythingâ came in. You assured him that nothing would be a challenge, and so he suggested chicken cutlets and baked potatoes. That was easy enough.
You sighed to yourself. Even the thought of cooking for Joel made you feel on top of the world; and you couldn't wait to get to it.
When you cruised into the driveway your hands gripped the steering wheel tighter as you saw your mother talking with someone at the line where your yard met Joelâs.
Who is that? You wondered, knowing full well that your mother was likely to call you over so they could be introduced.
The woman wore her dark hair in a high bun with a hand band on to keep her hair back. She wore a flowery yellow summer dress with spaghetti straps that flowed down to a pair of brown flip flops.
When your mother waved you over you threw the car in park, killed the engine and wandered over to where the two women were speaking.
"Cecille, this is my daughter, (Y/N) . I don't know that you've met." She smiled, "She just graduated from college and just got back about a week ago."
"Hello." Cecille extended an arm in your direction with a smile, "Cecille Miller."
At the revelation of her name you felt your entire body grow heavy. A rush of butterflies traveled up your torso and you felt like you could throw up when your hands linked in a formal handshake. âNice to meet you."
You swallowed hard, knowing your face was heated. Cecille Miller. This was Joel's soon-to-be ex-wife. How would you ever be able to look the woman in the eye? You took a deep breath and felt instant relief when your hand left hers.
"It's nice to see you," your mother went on, touching Cecilleâs shoulder gently, "I'm not going to delve into your business but we're having a picnic Saturday and you're more than welcome to come on over.â
âThank you.â She gave a nod but didn't elaborate one way or another if she intended to attend.
She can't⊠You were practically hyperventilating. Cecille was this gorgeous woman who suddenly made you feel like a child in comparison. You felt inferior and it triggered your flight complex.
Your eyes moved back and forth at the two of them feeling a bit third-wheelish. The phone suddenly buzzed in the pocket of your jeans and that was your out.
"Excuse me," you managed a closed-mouth smile and glanced at the screen, seeing Joel's number with an accompanied text message that read: Can't wait for those chicken cutlets.
Your face grew hot again and as bad as you wanted to write back you shoved the phone back down into your pocket. When your eyes rose both women were staring at her, forcing you to clear your throat and then smile nervously.
"She goes all out for picnics," you attempted to carry on a normal part of the conversation. "
"Oh, I might have you and Dad put up a volleyball net for me tonight," your mother explained.
"No problem." You continued to put on a fake smile as your phone went off again. You raised your eyebrows. "Well, it was nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too." Cecille gave a wave as you managed to wiggle your way out of the conversation. Much to your relief, your mother didn't attempt to call your back. As you took the steps up into the house you pulled the phone out of your pocket and began typing back to Joel.
You were beginning to wonder what your boundaries were, if you even had them anymore. Most women would have turned to run in the opposite direction after meeting the estranged wife of the man they were carrying on with - who also lived next door.
You glanced around the house noting your father wasn't home yet, before taking the stairs to your room. Out the window you could tell your mom and Cecille were wrapping up their conversation. It was then you noticed her blue BMW in the driveway next door.
Upon taking a composed breath, you decided to call Joel.
âHey, you.â His voice was cheery and you almost didn't want to say what you called for, but you knew you had to.
âHey.. um..â you took a deep breath.
âWhat's wrong?â Joelâs tone changed immediately.
âI, umm.. well.. my mom is talking with Cecille in our yard right now. She just introduced me and-â
âCecille?â
âIs she your.. wife?â
âEx,â Joel corrected. âShe's..â
âIn my yard,â you finished when he didn't continue.
There was silence on the other end. âI guess chicken cutlets will have to wait, huh?â You felt your chest tighten. You had no idea what Cecilleâs presence meant.
âNo,â Joel said right away. âI don't know.. what she's there for.â
âWhy don't we reschedule.â It cut you to say that to him.
âNo,â Joel said again and you heard him curse under his breath. âI'm on my way home from work now. Just.. I'll call you.. okay?â
Tears fell from your eyes without warning. You hesitated a moment.
â(Y/N)?â
You cleared your throat. âYeah. Yeah, okay.â
âPlease. It's.. we aren't together.â
âI know.â You held it together but knew you wouldn't be able to get paragraphs of words out. Your heart was aching even if it was over. Cecille being in your yard talking to your mother was completely unexpected and it left your mind and emotions trying to play catch up.
âI'll call you as soon as I figure out what's going on, and why she's here.â
âJoel..â
âYeah?â
You took a deep breath. âIs there a chance that you and her would get back together?â
âNo,â he responded right away. âNo, there's not.â
âOkay.â
âI'll take care of it. Please just.. trust me,â Joel added a second time, âPlease.â
âI trust you,â you said back. You meant it. You did trust Joel. Still, it didn't stop you from having that same heavy, sinking feeling in your chest.
Your eyes lifted as you watched Cecille wander back over next door and enter the house. In that one moment, your whole world felt off kilter.
âI'll call you tonight.â
âOkay.â
The call ended and, as dramatic as it felt, your world felt temporarily cracked. You slunk down to the ground in a seated position with your back against the wall and let your face rest in your hands.
As much as you told yourself that it was all fine, the reality was that Joelâs wife was in the house next door - the house that you fantasized about making your own, the house where you made love constantly, the house where you kissed Joel goodbye that morning as you fantasized about your future with him. The reality was, at least for the time being, that Cecille and Joel co-owned that house together. Not you.
âHey, honey!â Your mom called up from the first floor, âI'm thinking about making chicken cutlets. Will you be home for dinner?â
Ironic.
You quietly sobbed harder into your hands before finally sniffing in and manning up a response. âSounds good!â Your voice didn't crack, but no sooner than when the last syllable left your mouth the tears began to fall again.
You were in too deep, too fast; and this sudden curveball left your emotions running rampant. âFuck.â
Joel white-knuckled it the whole ride home. He wasn't about to call his ex-wife. She was the last person he wanted to speak to. However, he had an earful to give her for just dropping in and her leisure without warning.
This better not fuck things up. On the surface, Joel knew it looked bad. How could (Y/N) feel secure with Cecille just randomly dropping into his life?
âFuck!â Joel slammed his palm on the steering wheel of his truck and finally sped his way down the driveway. His eyes landed on the window to your bedroom and then he rushed inside the front door of his home.
When he entered, Cecille rounded out of the kitchen to come face-to-face with him.
âWhat're you doing here?â Joel asked bluntly.
A half-smile tipped up the order of their lips. âHi, Joel.â
âYou have no right to be here.â
âMy name is on the paperwork, too, ya know.â
âI pay all the bills and we agreed,â he hissed through his teeth. âYou can't just drop in here whenever you want.â
âMy sister is selling her house.â
âOkay..â
âSo, I'm just in between right now.â
âThat's not my business.â Joel shook his head. âYou need to leave.â
âLegally, you can't make me. I'll give you money if you'd like.â
âI'd like you to leave.â
âI need to pack up some things.â She began to March down the hall.
Joel trailed her into the bedroom. âAnd then you can get the fuck out.â
âJoel.â Cecille shook her head.
âYou can't be here.â
âI can-â
âNo, you really can't be here.â Joel slammed his hand down on top of his dresser, causing a bottle of his cologne to fall sideways. Cecille paused. She looked him up and down, a more serious expression in her face.
She then looked away and began go pace the length of the room with her arms folded across his chest. It was almost methodical.
âYou were the one that begged me to work it out before we bought this house.â She ran her fingers over indents in the wall behind the headboard. âSomething's changed.â Cecille shook her head.
âYou need to go. I'll pay for a hotel,â Joel added.
Cecille walked up to him with her hands on her hips and looked him intently in the eye. A few seconds went by before she concluded, âYou're seeing somebody.â

soooo itâs ur biggest fan here đ€Ł! so idea. chris is a hockey boy. i need something angsty or something
also a fluff idea reader is a dancer and chris is hockey player and reader has a competition the same place chris has a tournament. and itâs just them supporting each other
although just do what ever you want but hockey chris>>> i feel like youâd do him justice
Jealous guy.
â CHRIS STURNIOLO ANGST & FLUFF.
Author's note: I worked hard on this because it's for my biggest fan. You know I love my angsty shit, so I took your idea and combined it with mine. I hope y'all like it. đ€ Do not copy/steal my work. :)
Ps. I'm the kind of bitch that gets all giddy and shit when Chris says "my girl" in my OWN FIC. Okay.
Warnings: not really a warning but mentions of fighting and a lil bloody lip. Mwuah. Didn't proofread, sorry!
[ YOU ]
"Okay, and what the hell do you want me to do about it?" I almost scream, turning around to look at Chris.
He was fuming, to say the least. His hair was messy, he didn't have a shirt on but wore his usual gray sweatpants. His glare was deadly.
"Uhm, I don't know, tell him to not send fucking flowers to OUR apartment?!" he shouts, throwing his phone on the couch. The irony in his voice is more than evident.
I couldn't believe it when I saw it either Honestly, I never expected him to go to such lengths. Despite being just a co-worker, he's become a relentless presence in my life. Whether it's showing up everywhere at work, bringing me coffee, or bombarding me with emails â it's relentless. The boundary crossed when he managed to find my address; literally searching for my goddamn address and sending me flowers? That is wild. Of course I told Chris about it, but he acts as if it is my fault this psycho found our address.
"I don't even know his phone number, Chris! How would I ever know that he'd search for the address and send me flowers?" I sigh, still very angry.
"I'll beat the shit out of him, I swear.. the game starts in less than an hour, fucking hell.." he says, checking his watch, "how the fuck am I ever going to play when I'm like this?"
I don't reply to him â he really makes it sound like it's my fault and despite my initial enthusiasm for the game, it's waned due to his blame game. Still, I don't want to come off as a heartless bitch, especially on the eve of his crucial match. So, I grab my phone, wallet, and keys before heading over to him.
"I really hope you win." I whisper, placing a soft peck on his cheek before exiting the bedroom and shortly after, leaving the apartment.
[ CHRIS ]
She left. Fucking hell. I always do bullshit like this â I can't keep my big mouth shut and now she's not even coming to the game. I really needed her in this one. But that is my own fault.
In the quiet solitude of our apartment, I try to prepare for the upcoming game; amidst the dim glow of our living room, I meticulously don my team jersey, each movement an attempt to shift my focus. Taking a moment, I inhale deeply, trying to be as calm as possible before the game.
With a determined resolve, I grab my gear, the familiar scent of the hockey bag triggering a surge of adrenaline. As I step outside, the crisp evening air hits me, momentarily clearing my mind. The journey to the rink is a silent contemplation, the distant echoes of the city fading as I immerse myself in mental preparation.
Arriving at the arena, I feel the familiar anticipation. The ambient sounds of the crowd and distant echoes of skates on the ice envelop me, grounding me in the moment. I exchange nods and greetings with teammates. The locker room door creaks open, revealing the sanctum where emotions are set aside, and the game becomes paramount. Amidst the hum of chatter and the clatter of equipment, I sigh; I really want her to come. I still have hope, although I doubt it. The tension lingers as I tighten my skate laces, and Jake, my teammate and friend, notices my distraction.
"You seem off, Chris. Everything okay?" Jake asks.
"Yeah.." I look up at him, and he seems like he already knows, "..just had a big fight with my girl before I left. Can't shake it off," I confess.
Jake pats me on the shoulder. "I understand, man. I wish I could say something but you gotta leave it behind for now. We've got a game to win. Sort things out later."
On the ice, rival players almost immediately target me, seeming to be aware of my vulnerable state; it must be that fucking expression of mine. I can't hide it. During the first period, a smirking opponent skates by, taunting, "trouble at home, Chrissy? Should focus on that instead of the game." he smiles.
Enraged, I retaliate with a forceful check, earning myself a penalty, "keep your temper in check, Chris!" warns the referee.
In the penalty box, I mutter under my breath, "I can't fucking believe this."
As the match progresses, rival players intensify their attempts to provoke me; we've played with those fuckers before, and if anyone has seen me in a game, they know very well the only thing that can affect the way I play is her. Undeterred, I channel my anger into my plays, determined to win this goodamn game while internally wondering if she came to see me after all.
In a breakaway, I find myself one-on-one with the opposing goalie. With a swift deke, I send the puck into the net, equalizing the score. The crowd erupts, and my teammates cheer.
Rival players persist in their attempts to get under my skin. During a tense moment, an opposing forward sneers, "look, your girlfriend's probably enjoying the show. Make sure to not embarass her again."
After that, I almost lose it, and in a heated moment, a rival defenseman delivers a high stick to my face, splitting my lip. Blood drips onto the ice as I stumble backward. The referee signals a penalty, but the damage is done.
Undeterred by the bleeding, I clench my fists, "you think that's going to stop me? You fucking coward!" I almost scream to make sure that fucking asshole hears me.
The game continues, and during a power play, I push through the pain. I charge towards the net, ignoring the throbbing pain in my lip â the only thing on my mind is her and making her proud.
Fueled by a surge of anger and determination, I respond with a spectacular goal that secures the lead for my team. I skate past the jeering opponent, acknowledging the crowd's cheers.
As the final buzzer sounds, signaling our victory, I finally spot my girlfriend in the stands. My heart beats faster. A mix of emotions plays across her face, and I realize the significance of my performance. It's like no one else is around, just us and that is the only thing that matters. I keep eye contact with her, even when my teammates are cheering for me and I smile, even with that bloody lip â she smiles back and I want to kiss her so bad.
[ YOU ]
When I saw Chris' bloody lip, I almost lost it â the restraint within me, resisting the urge to jump in and shove my fingernails into that asshole's eye sockets, is beyond words. I was well aware they were deliberately provoking Chris; his simmering anger was very evident. The recklessness in his gameplay during the initial stages of the game made it even more obvious that he was more focused on what they said than the actual game.
I kept yelling his name at the top of my lungs, unsure if he could hear, but I desperately wished for his victory, especially after that intense fight. Witnessing him wince from the pain now and then, I felt an overwhelming urge to cry.
As he scored the decisive goal and secured the victory, I couldn't contain my excitement, jumping up and down. It brought back memories of our younger days when I always cheered him on during his games.
When all of this was over and I just stood there, I could see him looking at me. His gaze finally finds me in the midst of the crowd, and my heart feels like it might leap out of my chest. Everything else fades away, leaving only him in my line of sight.
I notice all of the team leaving, probably going to the locker rooms and I quickly head to the exit door.
In the dimly lit corridor outside of where the locker rooms are, he finally comes outside and spots me waiting there, my expression a mix of anticipation and apprehension.
"Hey," he calls out, his voice carrying a hint of both excitement and apology.
I look up, meeting his eyes, "hey," a subtle smile playing on my lips, "you played amazing out there."
Still trying to catch his breath, he wraps his arms around me in a tight hug, keeping me close for a while. We are not saying anything, I just hold him close, my fingers buried in his sweaty hair.
"Thank you so much for coming." he whispers.
"I would never lose any of your games. Even when you're being an asshole." I smile, which I am sure he can hear when I'm speaking.
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to put the blame on you. I just.. I am fucking jealous. I don't want any other guy near you." he keeps his voice as low as possible.
"Shhh, I know. Let's take care of that lip first and then you can apologise to me all you want." I pull away but he doesn't let go of course â I cup his cheek and take out some tissue that I keep in my bag for emergency with my free hand. I gently pat the skin, trying to clean the blood as much as I can without hurting him.
His eyes soften, "seriously, baby. Thanks for coming. I always play better when you're cheering for me."
I look up at him, my gaze softening as well as I cup both of his cheeks now, "I know. I am so, so proud of you. You were amazing, as always." I whisper, leaning in to play the softest kiss on his little wound.
"God, I love you." he whispers, wrapping his arms around my waist, hugging me close to him.
"I love you too."

König couldn't help but smile while he watched you standing in the middle of the square, looking back and forth between the screen of your phone and the nearby streets with a confused look on your gorgeous face. You were lost, he could easily see that.
It was one of those rare occasions when he was off-duty, visiting his family in Austria without having to protect his identity with the usual veil. Yes, he felt naked, almost anxious again, but he reminded himself that everything was okay. He was alone. No one was following him. No one recognized him. It was all good.
So he laughed to himself quietly before walking over to you. "Excuse me," he began, already raising his hands in defense since he knew you would freak out because of his size alone. When you gulped and locked the screen of your phone, he went on. "You seem to be lost. Can I help?"
You hesitated, but your eyes never left his face. Were you just cautious and kept an eye on him to make sure he behaved? Or was there another reason? Maybe something was on his face? When he cocked an eyebrow at you, you cleared your throat and kicked the cobblestone sidewalk.
"I have the goddamn GPS in my phone and I'm still lost," you murmured angrily with an adorable nose scrunch. "I'm looking for this address," you told him once you found the email it was in.
He took a good look at the screen, and he couldn't help but smile. "I'm going right across the street, I can show you the way if you'd like," he offered.
Nodding, you put the device back to your pocket. "That would be great, thank you."
The two of you walked in silence for a while. König had a series of questions on his mind, starting with one about your name and one about whether or not you were a local. Even he got lost sometimes after being away for too long, so he wouldn't be that surprised to find out you were living in this city.
But he remained silent, and instead of opening his mouth, he silently observed your features, taking in the details as if he was trying to remember his girlfriend's looks. But you weren't his girlfriend, although a part of him desperately wanted to ask you out before you parted at your destination.
The great Colonel König was back to his anxious self because of you. His mind was in overdrive, one moment he was just about to open his mouth, the next he wanted to run away and hide from you. It was a terrible feeling, one he didn't have to face on the battlefield. Oh, how he wished he was back there.
"You're tall. And big," you suddenly mused as you turned to him with a smile. "I'm sure a lot of people tell you that, sorry."
He couldn't help but laugh at this. "Yeah, I get that a lot. And you're cute," he added without even thinking.
You came to a sudden halt and turned to him with your hands folded behind your back. "You think I'm cute?"
Damn it. Where the hell did that filter between his mouth and brain go? "IâI... It's not... Yes," he eventually admitted guiltily.
With a laugh, you moved closer to him and playfully nudged his arm with your shoulder. "You don't look bad either. Maybe we could meet later."
"As in going on a date?" You nodded with a smile. "I'd love that."
König knew you were close to your destination, so he pulled out his phone and gave it to you. "Can I get your number to discuss the details?" he asked.
Without answering, you took the device and typed your number along with your name before giving it back to him. "Give me a call or send me a text."
He looked at the new contact and couldn't hold back a smile. "I like your name."
"Speaking of names, you never told me yours," you noted with a pout.
"It's König."
"That's all? Hmm... mysterious. I like it."
The rest of the trip passed in silence, mostly because you wanted to avoid spoilers. We'll have time to talk on our date, you said. He was okay with that. But when he stopped in front of the building where you were heading, his heart sank. He didn't want to say goodbye yet, but there was nothing he could do.
Before he could register what was happening, you stood on your toes and gently pulled down his head to place a soft kiss on his cheek. "Thanks for showing me the way," you whispered to him.
"Anytime," König told you.

idea came to me in a dream. enjoy also! i made a notifs blog! taglist life is NOT for me, babies. feel free to head on over, follow and turn notifs on to be updated anytime i post! đ @macfroglets đ youâre gonna wanna do it before this sundayâŠđđ€
inspired by @bageldaddy who is the author of the dreamiest series on this site, my biggest crush, and also told me not to tag her but i respect my elders so.
pairing: joel miller x call girl!reader
summary: you moonlight as a call girl, receiving mediocre call after mediocre call. one night, one joel miller dials in, and grants you the most exciting ten minutes of your career
warnings: 18+ (minors dni!!!) this fic is pro-sex work. reader is a phone sex operator, mentions of anal and oral, dirty talk, couple mentions of daddy, praise kink, mutual masturbation, alcohol consumption, cursing
word count: 3k
main masterlist
âWhat now, baby?â you whisper, laughing to yourself. Youâre palming at your breast, your fingers pulling in around your nipple. Your core begins to throb. âYouâre gonna touch yourself.â âThat what you want?â ââs what I want, angel. Do it for me.â
It started out as a joke, if youâre being honest.
A wine-drunk night with Liv, sat at opposite ends of the couch, legs intertwined somewhere in the middle of the cushions. Her blouse was stained pink â your fault, apparently, for making her laugh too hard. Her glass tilted a fraction too far and before you knew it, you owed her a new shirt.
âSay it again, say it how he said it,â she snorted, patting her chest down with the damp towel youâd handed her.
ââŠquite frankly, disappointed with your performance,â your head tilted back and forth, mocking the nasally voice of your fifty-one-year-old, receding-hairline-equipped boss. Ex-boss. Asshole.
âOh, fuck,â she heaved, still catching her breath. âThatâs so fucking funny.â
You sighed in agreement.
âSoâŠwhat are you actually gonna do now?â
You shrugged. âSell my body.â
âDare you.â
âI would.â
âI know you would. And youâd be good at it, too. âs why Iâm telling you to do it.â
You kicked her ankle. âI got bills to pay, dude.â
âWhat about one of those call girls?â
And, well. That was that.
Youâd googled it after seeing her off to her own apartment, watching her wobbly form stagger across the hall and stab her key a few times into the wood before it landed in the lock. The door closed with an accidental slam which echoed up the stone stairwell, and you crept back to your own place.
Palms either side of your laptop on the counter, face lit in a blue glow, dripdripdrip of your busted tap echoing around your dark kitchen. They asked for an email address â you used the one youâd made up before you realized email addresses were permanent â and a phone number. Said someone would call you to discuss it. You shrugged, hit Sign up and went to bed.
Within hours, youâd spoken to some sharp-accented woman who asked quick, snappy questions and uhuhed her way through your answers. Her name was Erica. She told you sheâd look after you, told you to call her with any questions or concerns you had.
All she wanted from you were the basics: you liked sex, you masturbated, you knew how to dirty talk. You sorta knew your way around things like anal, and could manage a convincing pitch for things of a moreâŠexploratory nature.
And then she asked when you wanted to start. You told her that night.
Your first caller â like, ever â was some guy with a midwestern accent who asked you to narrate fucking him. Like, spanking him with a paddle, calling him a bad, bad boy. You threw your nerves to the wind and went along with it, and honestly, had a pretty rad time. He was cool.
But one was enough for your first night. You logged out and went to bed. You told Liv the next morning, and she punched your arm a little too hard and yelled, Thatâs my fuckinâ girl! Was it hot? Did youâŠyâknow?
No. You never get that lucky. Some calls you can lie idly on your couch and let your limp hand surf beneath the hem of your underwear, push lazy circles against your clit as the dude moans in your ear or gasps when you whine.
Sometimes their mics can pick up the faint sound of them jacking off, and your brain slips you an image that makes your stomach flutter. Sometimes youâll hang up and take yourself the whole nine yards with your laptop sitting on your mattress, porn on the screen, and your vibrator between your open legs.
Itâs pretty intense work. Sometimes.
But all in all: no. You neverâŠyâknow.
One week in, you were cooking dinner whilst telling Trevor â thirty-nine, Buffalo, New York â how youâd take his huge, throbbing dick in your throat and let him fuck it. He asked to hear how turned on you were, just talking about it. You lowered your phone down to the pot of macaroni and gave it a stir.
âOh, fuck,â he groaned down the line, âyouâre so fuckinâ wet right now, huh?â
Huh.
Tonight, you had pizza rolls. Less sexy.
You just got off another call. Thirty minutes of describing how good youâd take him up your ass. Youâre bored, turned off by this point, and tired. Itâs almost 3AM.
You pace around your apartment, flicking switches off and tossing cushions back into place. Spilling small sips of wine from your glass onto your tongue as youâre plunged into darkness, one click at a time.
You donât get much while the sunâs up. Most days, nothing at all. That works for you, though. You can run errands, grab groceries, do sweet-fucking-nothing whilst waiting for the influx of calls that will inevitably come your way by nightfall. When the streetlights come on, the rush hour traffic dies out front, the shuffling of tired feet up the concrete staircase outside your front door slows down â you just log in, and your cell will eventually start to ring.
Your cell, which now lies wedged between the couch cushions. You notice the sound of it vibrating as youâre pulling your curtains closed. Half-way shut, you desert them and wander over. Intrigued.
No Caller ID. The usual. You swipe right. The robotic voice tells you thereâs a request on your account for a ten-minute call. Tells you to dial 1 to accept, or hang up.
Ten minutes? At three in the morning?
Usually, at this time of night, theyâre longer. Theyâre drunk, or their partner finally fell asleep, or they just want your attention for a bit. See them through the uncomfortably quiet night.
But ten fucking minutes?
Ten minutes would make you somewhere around thirty-five dollars. They had the option as the timer ran out to extend the call, if they wanted. Most of them did. And that worked fine for you.
Youâre unemployed. Who knows what money youâll have in a weekâs time? An extra thirty bucks â probably more â right before bed? A little nightcap?
You dial in and answer the call.
He doesnât say anything when it connects. You hear the ruffling of clothes.
Your voice naturally dips a couple octaves, coats in something smooth and husky. Glistening, gleaming, sex-driven. âHello?â
He clears his throat. His voice is deep, rich. More vibration than speech. He speaks with a Southern drawl, like bare skin running over silken sheets. Itâs smooth, and sensual, and sexy. âEveninâ.â
You knock the last light switch off with your hip and doddle through to your bedroom. Morninâ, actually. âHi. Whatâre you after, baby?â
He takes a beat to reply. More ruffling. He chuckles a little before he says it. âBaby? That what you wanna call me?â
Your glass scrapes softly across your nightstand. You bounce down on your mattress, springs moaning as you roll onto your stomach. Knees bent, your ankles link in the air. âWhat do you want me to call you?â
âGuess we can figure that one out together.â
âAlright. I like a challenge. You wanna start with your name?â
Another pause. He sucks in a deep breath. âJoel.â
âJoel,â you repeat, thumb picking at your nailbeds. âThatâs a sexy name.â
He doesnât respond. Just gives a non-committal grunt, and a smile pulls across your lips.
âWhat are you into, Joel?â
He sniffs. âThought we could figure that out, too.â
Something in the way he says it, the curve in the words, maybe, tells you he knows damn well what heâs into. What he means is: you can figure that out by yourself.
Like you said: you like a fucking challenge.
âYou like nicknames? Daddy? That kinda thing?â
A low growl passes his lips. âNot this early on, I donât.â
You know from the hitch in his voice that he likes it. That little catch at the bottom of his throat, the way the words stumble on their way up. Know youâve plucked a string deep inside.
âWell, you know you only got ten minutes, right?â
âIâm aware.â
ââkay,â you sing, flipping your hair over your shoulder. You exhale, drawing shapes on the pattern of your bedsheets. âWhy donât you tell me what youâre thinkinâ about, then? Whatâs on your mind, cowboy?â
Cowboy. Itâs the accent. He sounds Texan, or something. His words float through the receiver all wound, coiled up and tight.
Joel doesnât seem to care. He answers your question truthfully.
âThinkinâ about what youâre doinâ right now.â
You smirk. Sometimes you like the attention, too. You turn your head, check the clock by your bed. Two minutes have passed.
âIâmâŠlying in bed, in the dark. Had a couple wines, feelinâ pretty good. But this is all about you, so.â
He chuckles softly. ââm lyinâ in bed, too. In the dark.â
âYou feelinâ lonely?â
He takes another deep breath. You figure he does this before he gives most answers. He sounds the contemplative type. Always double, triple checking his sentences before he lets them go.
âJust need somethinâ to take the edge off.â
âOkay,â you breathe, âlet me. What do you need?â
Thereâs a long break between the end of your question and the sound he makes before he answers. You pull the phone from your ear and glance at the screen to make sure itâs still connected. Time says another two minutes have passed.
Joel grumbles. It echoes around your ear like thunder in the distance. âYou touchinâ yourself?â he eventually asks.
âUhuh,â you reply, nails picking at a loose thread on your comforter.
âYeah? Howâs it feel?â
âGood,â you mewl, tugging at the seam. Your teeth grit as you yank at it. âSo â fucking â good.â
Thereâs another growl from the other end. It vibrates through your speaker, purrs in your ear.
âYou ainât fuckinâ touchinâ yourself.â
Your hand stops. Your eyes stick on the thread. âI am.â
âYou are?â
âYes.â
âTell me how.â
You roll your eyes, turning onto your back. Your fingers play with the buttons of your shirt. Fuckinâ â tell me how. âIâmâŠâ you sigh, ââŠIâm laying in bed, on my back. My hands are ââ
âWhat you wearinâ?â
âIsnât that the sorta stuff you oughta ask when I first pick up?â
He speaks calmer. Clearer. You can hear the smile on his lips. ââm askinâ you now. What you wearinâ, sweetheart?â
Sweetheart. So heâs that type. Whatever. Heâs kind of pissing you off.
âA shirt. And socks. And panties. No bra.â
âân where you touchinâ yourself?â
You huff. âBetween my ââ
âWatch the attitude.â
You almost fucking laugh. Your breath escapes your chest in a silent burst. âBetween my legs,â you tell him, flat and annoyed.
âMhm. Above or beneath the panties?â
âBeneath, daddy.â
A tiny groan passes his lips. He doesnât mean for it to, and a second, angry grumble follows, like heâs pissed at himself for letting it slip.
You take a lock of hair and twirl it around your finger, pulling tight until the tip whitens. âYou touching yourself?â you ask, voice sickly sweet.
Joel ignores you. âTake it off. The shirt,â he clarifies, when you donât answer.
You shuffle around a little, making sure he can hear the movement. You unbutton the shirt until itâs lying loose over your breasts, then tug it down over one shoulder.
âAlright,â you tell him with a heavy breath, laying back on the mattress, âitâs off.â
âYeah?â he asks, and your eyes flutter closed.
âMhm.â
Joel chuckles under his breath. âKnow when youâre lyinâ, angel. Take â it â off. Donât be a brat about it.â
This is half the game for him, you realize. This is his thing. He gives commands, you disobey them, and he kicks you into line. Tells you to behave.
You figure you like it almost as much, going by the heat pooling between your legs.
Your shoulders lift and you tug the shirt over them, tossing it to the floor. You lie back, bare against the sheets, and your hand instantly cups over your breast.
âBetter,â Joel breathes.
âWhat now, baby?â you whisper, laughing to yourself. Youâre palming at your breast, your fingers pulling in around your nipple. Your core begins to throb.
âYouâre gonna touch yourself.â
âThat what you want?â
ââs what I want, angel. Do it for me.â
You donât take much more convincing. Your hand slips down your front, cups over your mound. You gasp when your fingertips brush against your clit.
Joel hears. âYeah,â he hums, ââs a good girl. Take those panties off ân rub that pretty little clit for me.â
Your fingertips give one last kiss to the fabric of your panties. Your mouth tips open a fraction. You suck in a quiet breath, and push your hips up off the bed. The lace slips down your thighs in one motion.
Joelâs grunting steadily now, small noises slipping past his lips and into your ear. You spread your legs and push against your bud again, massaging the sensitive skin.
âFuck, Joel,â you whine, and he groans in response.
âI know, I know,â heâs saying, and you hear the metal tinkle of his belt buckle. The fraying sound of denim being shifted. One slow, relief-filled groan.
His hands are on his cock.
Youâd put more effort into caring that heâs been fully clothed this entire time, if you could think straight. Youâre applying more pressure to your clit, rubbing faster, harder, then letting your fingers drift downward, move between your gleaming folds.
âWish I was there with you so bad,â Joel purrs, and your eyes flutter open.
âYeah?â you choke.
âYeah.â
âWhat would you â do to me?â
He shudders. âWould fuck you real good, sweetheart.â
âFuck,â you breathe, fingers circling faster.
Thereâs a gentle tugging; a rhythmic breathing. The odd break in his voice when his hand tightens, or you make a sweet little sound, or he catches himself giving too much away.
âFuckinâ â be all over you. Nice ân hard. You want that?â
âMhm,â you mewl, panting. âWant it so bad.â
âYeah, you do,â Joel says. You can hear the sticky sound of his precum, leaking from his tip and running between his fingers, being pumped down his shaft by his fist. âFeels good, angel, donât it? When you do what youâre told?â
âY-eah,â you whisper.
âGood girl,â he murmurs, and you picture a tight fist choking a thick cock. Picture that same fist unwinding, curving around your mound, fingers pushing deep inside you.
âJoel,â you whimper, and your fingers move down again, dipping nearer your tight, wet hole.
He grunts in response. âDonât â not yet,â he tells you.
You whine.
âYou got somethinâ else to use?â he asks, then interrupts before you can answer. âYeah, you do. Go get it, sweetheart. Tell me what you got.â
âV-vibrator,â you mumble, hoisting yourself up and lunging across the bed to your nightstand. You haul the drawer open and sift between balled-up socks until youâre clutching the long, thick shape, fingers tight around the dips and curves.
âLet me hear it, angel.â
You click the button and the toy whirrs to life, vibrating strongly in your hand.
Joel hisses. âAlright, sweetheart, lie back. Gonna put it on that pretty little pussy, alright? Gonna make yourself cum for me.â
âUhuh,â you murmur, one hand lowering the vibrator between your legs, the other holding the phone to your ear in a vice grip.
You push the round tip down to your clit and your head falls back with a loud moan. Joel sends one straight back at the sound of yours. It fades into a whimper, a desperate cry as you massage yourself with your toy.
Your legs clench as you dip it lower, letting the head nudge against your entrance, sending flutters of pleasure across your dripping cunt.
âDonât fuck yourself,â Joel instructs, and your hand quickly pulls back. âSave it.â
This mystery man, who youâve known for â if your clock is right â eight minutes, now; whose name is the most information youâve gotten out of him; and whose face you couldnât pick in a lineupâŠhas such a hold on you, that your body instinctively reacts to his every word. An automatic reaction to do exactly as he says, when, five minutes ago, you couldnât wait to get him off the phone.
You fucking listen to him. Save it for what? your head asks, and you ignore it. You donât push the toy any closer to your center.
It drives hard against your clit, fast vibrations rippling down on the hot, swollen skin. It sends floods of warmth between your legs, drawing your arousal slick and wet from between your folds.
Your chest is damp, gleaming with sweat. Your breath cuts short in your throat, guttural noises replacing it as they reverberate through your mouth, across your tongue and into your dark bedroom.
Your walls start to clamp around nothing. You angle the vibrator so that it sends deep pulses across your pussy, shutting your eyes to picture Joelâs thick cock burying deep inside you as you climax with a loud, broken cry.
âYeah, good girl. Thatâs it. Sound so pretty, angel. âs a good girl.â
Youâre whimpering his name as you come down, holding the toy to your clit and letting your high wash over you. Your chest jumps, breaths heavy and staggered, gasping for air and then letting it rush out of your lungs in desperate pants.
âYou know how good you are at that?â he asks, when your breath steadies again.
You giggle softly. ââs why I do it, baby.â
âWorth every fuckinâ penny.â
You sit in the post-orgasm haze for a few seconds, waiting for the room to stop spinning and your body to feel like yours again. You pull the phone from your sweat-stuck cheek and glance at the time. You have less than thirty seconds left. Joel seems to do the same, for his voice returns to your ear in a gentle, low whisper.
âAlright. Speak soon, angel. Be good.â
The call cuts.

Starter for @seakiumi
The city outside her apartment window was busy and bustling, honking horns and people talking, shouting, laughing, singing, and the like. Violet eyes looked out over what she could see of the skyline while sitting at her computer Aurora seemed to sigh trying to come up with more ideas for an upcoming novel under her pen name Vivian Solice. âUncoveredâ a story with a busy city and an underbelly of mystery the main character what been thrust into. Half ignoring the music coming from the speakers of her computer she almost hasnât noticed the ding from the incoming email from her editor with some well needed information.
âV, Iâve got some good news! I was able to get you an in! Youâll be starting at one of the local tattoo shops down on the lower east end. Iâve included the address. I hope this helps with you recent novel research. And I look forward to seeing your draft when youâre able to get back.â
Sitting much more upright in the arm chair she had been using as a computer chair. Aurora read over the email jotted down the address, phone number and the name of the shop informant willing to help her get an apprenticeship. Several days had passed since the email came in, contact had been made to the shop and sheâd be starting at the end of the week. This didnât give her much time to find clothing that would better fit in rather than wearing the mostly business casual clothing she currently owned. Opting instead for the âbiker chickâ aesthetic. Jeans and leather pants, cropped tops and leather jackets.
Looking in the mirror Aurora stood turning from side to side looking at her new cloths on herself. Damn she looked good, dare she think better than her usual clothing.
Several weeks had gone by and sheâd been learning quite a bit about the small shop, and it wasnât long before most people knew her as beauty. And honestly she didnât bother to correct anyone, feeling damn good about it. Someone stumbled in through the door looking for a âtattooâ. Another client like their usual clientele. But something didnât feel right when sheâd been called to the back to grab their âspecialâ ink.
âAlright letâs do this.â Everything seemed to be going normally, Aurora would watch from over the artists shoulder and the client sitting bare chest cover in a simple âflash stencilâ, one it seemed most of the clients knew about but wasnât on any board or in any book.
It didnât take long for the client to begin foaming at the mouth and shaking violently. âDamn it all⊠not againâŠâ was commented under the breath of the artist. âOi Beauty, go grab the black book under the reg and call the third number down. Tell em weâve got another one down and get back here.â
Doing as asked Aurora found his words strange and seemingly out of place for a shop that seemed in good standing. But still did as asked without hesitation. She may not have known exactly what was happening but did know enough to act quickly. Finding the book and getting the phone to call out felt like it had taken hours even though it was more like seconds. Ringing sounded, and with each one Aurora paced at the desk. âCome onâŠcome on come on come on, pick upâŠâ a hand raked through her hair. As soon as the other end picked up she spoke her lines in a rush and hung up to get back to let the artist know sheâd called. âGood no get outside and keep watch for a tall blond!â
âBut shouldnât we get the hosâŠâ
âDonât be stupid! Now get outside and wait!â
While it was still unclear what was really happening Aurora did know at least enough to know the client had been ODing. Sheâd heard and read about the signs but at this time she hadnât a clue that this would have been tied into the tattoo gun and ink itself. Sighing and half pacing hand back in her hair she waited.

Guide for Black Doms to make white sissy
Found this Guide on another unrelated site;Â it describes how to make white bois into sissies for use by Superior Black Masters, and would willingly submit to have this done to me!
This is a guide for Superior Black Men that want to usurp their rights over crossdressing white boys. I will tell you the weaknesses and inner desires of white boys, so that you may more easily enslave and own them. If you want an obedient and addicted white boy, read on.
Submissive WHITE Sissy Faggots Are Eager To Serve As Sissy Maids And Cum Receptacles For SUPERIOR BLACK MEN â Â REGISTER HERE TO BE USED BY A SUPERIOR BLACK GOD
1) Getting a real meeting with a boy is the most crucial part of beginning the white boy emasculation.
The rest comes easy and naturally for the sissy boy. Most fantasize about being forced into it. They like the risks and are completely aware that it is a slippery slope. Blackmail and Domination is part of what they want. On some level, they want and feel they deserve to lose their identity as a man and to serve Superior Men. More than anything in the world. Any kind of resistance is just part of what the fantasy; white sissy boys have a desire to be freed from their choice. Younger and not married are more desirable.

Degrade and humiliate him in your emails. Ask him how small his little pee pee is. Tell him how you will slap his face with Your Superior Cock. You will put him on a leash. Sissy âs like to hear confirmation they are not real men. Call them a girl. Tell him he has a girly ass. Or if he is skinny, call him petite and effeminate. Ask him if he likes looking at a picture of Your Cock. Give him a female name as a reminder. On the reverse, make him call you Daddy (this is the absolute most humiliating name you can use, but Sir or Master work well too). If he doesnât, tell him you will punish him. Try and get a phone number or address before he can back out. Always push to meet sooner.
2) Establishing follow up sessions. This is where most sissy boys get away. My greatest advice here is to ask the sissy if you can record and take pictures of him for your personal collection. In the moment, they will tend to say yes and do it. A simple picture of him on his knees sucking your cock could well be the key to his entire enslavement. You only need suggestively say you like the picture and want to send it to his friends if he is reluctant to meet. Record him every time after.

Chastity is another way. This is better long term and for training. Just like other males, white sissy faggots have that moment of wake-up and sometimes regret when they finally cum. They will do anything before that moment, but can feel like they went to far once cum. Not allowing them to cum will keep them submissive, turned on, and obedient. You can do whatever you want for however long you want. They on some level, even like the denial. They feel trapped and needy to be nice to you.
If they are resistant to this initially, you can keep pushing it, and just put it on them if you can convince them to be tied up. Forgiveness over permission. Use a device that cannot be removed without a key.
During the first meeting, make them cum, be verbal, make them tell you what a bitch they are. Make them promise they will be your sextoym. Make them give you their word they will suck you next week.
3) Training will transform the white sissy into a total, obedient slut. You should not let them cum more than once a week. Suggest tying them up when you let them cum and you take off the device, so they have no say if it comes back on. Prolonging how long they cum will make it more intense and they will have much less chance of regret. You can anally train them to cum without stimulation from their little white penis and eventually to cum without being hard. Google sissy gasm. Teasing around their butt with your fingers will help. The goal is to have them only cum from anal stimulation. If you have to, make them wait another week if they canât do it without touching their tiny pee pee. Stroke them from behind like a bitch so their cock is pulled behind their legs. If theyâre really are unable to cum after two weeks. Also suggest stroking like this the first time you meet them until they cum.

4) After some time, you may introduce more changes to the white sissy. Changes that cross the âpoint of no returnâ will keep a white boy as a sissy longer than anything else. They may resist to these ideas, but you can keep pushing it on them, and on some level they want it more than anything in the world. Ultimately, it is their choice.
Shaving smooth will make a huge difference in how girly the sissy looks. If you are keeping the sissy shaved,, You could eventually encourage the sissy to get laser hair removal.
Another suggestion would be a tramp stamp or other tattoos. Perhaps âsissy slutâ, âEmilyâ, âBBC Ownedâ. You could have her do a trial with a Henna tattoo or just go all the way. Permanent makeup is another humiliating way to feminize the white sissy.
The final step is the one white sissy boys think about the most. They feel it is their destiny and that is a final step to submitting and giving up their ego for humiliation. Hormones. Two types, anti-androgen and estrogen. Estrogen will have the most effects, such as face breasts, and submissive tendency. Anti androgen will make them more petite, less muscle, and make their tiny pee pees even smaller. You can find more online about it. Whatever you want of them, tell them they need to look pretty and pleasurable for Men. And that they are better off this way. Affirm it is who they are on the inside.
5) Enslaving the sissy is the goal. Establish Dominance and always push the little white boys to say they are inferior. Treat them like a sextoy. Text them you want blowjobs on random days. White sissies should be your on-call fuck toy. Punish them when they are bad. Use chastity to control their rewards. You can do whatever you like, turn them into a live-in maid if you like or a discreet obedient sex slave.
