|★| A drabble regarding a character of mine that I submitted for @tmnt-multiverse-election .

— AU: 'Star Bunny' — OC: Tanner (Tanner Mayfield)

"..so- urh. I might get nominated, I- I guess." A small mumble left the young human as their eyes flickered between the sea of people, mutants and yokai of all shorts, all of whom preparing to run— or are already, running for president for the 'TMNT' multiverse. They paused for a second their head striding away from the microphone as they thought of what to say, or do— as thousands upon, million of people are standing there. Their thoughts were drowned out by chatter of the people below the stage, so— rasping out a cough of uncertainty, the young supplier turned to open their backpack, crouching down for a moment in order to get out a small notebook— while amongst the absolute mess of equipment that they are supposed to deliver give out to a couple of clients and acquaintances.

"Erhhh, gladly I have, well— Gladly I was given some time to prepare for— for this." They sheepishly stated as they got up, before setting the tattered notebook down on the book stand. Though, they still felt a little confused as to what they were they were supposed to do, Tanner was still willing and a little determined if anything— to give this a go. They silently, yet quickly flipped through the pages in to get to a specific order, for a second worrying that they were just eating up everyone's time.

"Now- erh, I have listed down some reasons to why you should vote me, or something along the lines of that ..?? Yeah. Something along the lines of that." Lifting their hand up to their bunny mask— the supplier lifted it up just a bit so that their mouth would be exposed, as to be heard loud and clear to the massive crowd.

"I have broken down two sections of, well, reason as to why I should get voted...?? The general one and the..universal one. So, erh— here they are ??" They cleared their throat for just a second, and then with the little confidence that they gathered up, and with partially stubborn mindset, they continued their speech.

"alright so— the, the general section will includeee, urh—

— |☆| Basic necessities such as food, electricity, water and such will be accessible to everyone and if needed, I gladly deliver some goods and supplies to your door. (Applies to all universes) — |★| Healthcare— and mental healthcare will be free and accessible to everyone and doctors, pharmacists and nurses, as well as the psychiatrists, psychologist and therapists will get paid by the government. (Applies to all universes) — |☆| Baking products will cost less. just because you can't or don't want to control your store prices, doesn't mean that I have to pay 40 dollars to make a batch of brownies. (Applies to all universes) — |★| Now, as much I would love to reduce crime.. no, I'm lying. Crime is essential for action in the 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' universes. It's like oxygen for us humans, like gas for a star to provide for its nuclear fuel. Well, it really depends on what you do— hoarding, thieving, stealing and taking what's not yours, will be well— there. Murder and kidnapping depends on the person. You can't kill children or the elderly— neither innocent people, however if it's a pedophile or some scumbag .. get em, I guess. The crime won't stop completely m'kay ? (Applies to all universes) — |☆| Sensory friendly spaces, in which all humans, yokai and mutant's can access will be in every corner of the city— in case someone gets a little too over stimulated. (Applies to all universes) — |★| Also, an odd one but there will more hiding spaces throughout the universes. (They deal with quite the stubborn and more demanding clients from time to time while trying to deliver or reposes something, they deserve to have to somewhere to evade said client if things get heated.) (Applies to all universes) — |☆| Any form of discrimination, mockery and assault against delivery workers will be illegal. Watch your words and actions please. (Applies to all universes.) — |★| Water, slushies, coffee and energy drinks will be free from now on. (Applies to all universes) — |☆| Everyone gets a free batch of brownies and cookies every month, based on their preferences. (Applies to all universes) — |★| Andd if anyone locks up a bunny in a cage, they be sentenced to death. No— wait, that is too heavy, they just be locked for a really long time and have everyday lessons as to why you should never lock a rabbit in cage and as to why the need a spacious area to live in until they be driven to insanity.. is- is that still too heavy ?? (Applies to all universes) — |☆| ..An odd one but, everyone has to cut thieves some slack. Not sure one bit why I put that here, not sure at all.. (Applies to all universes)

"..should— should we move on to the uni- Y'know what, yeah. Let's move on the universal section."

— |☆| I know this isn't a shocker, but mutants and yokai will be allowed to walk freely— and live up in the surface with the humans, as well as have the same rights as they do. Also, a human os not in any means allowed to strife against a Yokai. Unless there is some form of unresolved banter between them.. still- let's keep it fair for everyone. (Applies to all universes.) — |★| You are all obligated to leave' Repo Mantis Row Truck & Salvage Company' alone. Yeah, he has some unruly and cruel clients who are keeping the money to themselves and he deals with them they way he deals with them, so what ? ? Oh, and also— a suitcase of canned tuna will be brought to him every day in order to feed his cat. Or 'Snuggly Wuggly', as he calls her. (Applies to all universes.) — |☆| The 'Purple Dragons Tech Club' will have technological equipment and one hundred fifty dollars in cash delivered to them every week so that they can invest in.. whatever— whatever they do in their club. Or maybe just split the money, since they are three members and 150 ÷ 3 = 50.. yeah, they could split the money every month.(This only applies to 'Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' universes.) — |★| If you are from the 'Brownie Scouts' then, congratulations— you are in luck, as each member of the scouts will supplied every month with new baking ingredients to keep those brownies going !! (Applies to all universes.) — |☆| The government will be OBLIGATED.. to provide Todd Capybara with large amounts of income for both his own comfort and basic needs- as well to feed and provide for his dogs. Also, there will be a sack of lemons transported to him weekend, in case he wants to make some of that internet— famous homemade lemonade of his. (Applies to all universes) — |★| Urrrhh, Mikey will get gifted with new art and cooking supplies for whenever he needs them. (Applies to all universes) — |☆| Donnie will get supplied with tools and equipment for bis tech and will get delivered some uranium.. so that he can shut up about it.. But also, he will get provided with a greenhouse to have to himself. He did mention once that he likes botany, right ? (The first bit applies to every universe. The second one only applies to 'Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' universes) — |★| Also, no filming, annoying or pranking Repo's cat, aka Mr's Nubbins. We will find you if you do so. (Applies to all universes).

"..huh. the- the list is done." Tanner felt quite relieved as his eyes flickered to a worn— blank page, his lips curling into a line as he realizes that it might just be time to let the next contestant go up on the stage. Hitching a small breath— the supplier lowered his bunny mask back down, the yellow cardboard with the large star on the side covering their features once again. They quickly stuffed the notebook back into their backpack, muttering goodbyes and uncertain gratitudes to everyone in the crowd as they scampered off of the stage.

did tsukasa cause problems for his family when he was young how to kill parents?? Did tsukasa lose control and amane considered him dangerous and killed him??

That's the million dollar question hahahaha

There are several possibilities, and this is one of them. Her problem is that she is very obvious, easy to assume. It's one of the first things that comes to mind when we think about what happened to the twins.

I like a specific possibility, I'll tell you which one.

We saw that Tsukasa, after uniting with the creature, granted a wish to one of the temple's exorcists (sorry, I forgot his name hahaha) the result of this wish was the death of the temple leader.

You noticed that he was very scared, didn't you?

The creature can know what people's deepest desires are without them having to say it, we saw it doing this with Kou, and with Tsukasa himself.

So I imagine that Tsukasa and the creature together went around fulfilling people's wishes, the problem was paying for these wishes. Let's also think about negative desires, as happened with the temple exorcist, who wished the leader would die.

Perhaps some of these desires led to one or more tragic consequences. Can you imagine Tsukasa telling his mother "I'll make your wish come true, mom!" and soon after someone she knew dies?

Or if he's already done this to other people in front of her. Did you see the way he looked at her?

If she noticed and was sure there was something wrong with Tsukasa, it was because he did this kind of thing in front of her, or with her.

Imagine finding your child talking to himself in his room about things like this:

The tragedy happened because the family was probably trying to help Tsukasa get that thing off him, but as we saw, it didn't work. Nene was taken away just for trying to take little Tsukasa out of the red house, so…. What did the creature do when they tried to take the boy away from her?

Amane tried to stab her directly, he injured Tsukasa where she was, but it seems that that didn't solve the problem either.

Tsukasa didn't seem to want to let go of that thing either, the two wanted to stay together. Basically, it was an extremely difficult problem to solve, Amane found an extreme solution that didn't work, he killed his brother but the thing is still there.

So in short, one of the hypotheses I like most is that his family was trying to help him get rid of that creature, but they couldn't, we don't really know the consequences of that, but we imagine that it ended in the deaths of some people.

It is worth remembering that we cannot exclude Amane from this entire situation. There is something in his past that he cannot tell, something that is worse than killing his own brother, what would it be?

He doesn't like talking about it, he doesn't like remembering it and he's afraid they'll find out, especially Yashiro, because as Tsuchigomori said, "she would stop being good to him" in other words, he did something terrible.

So, the blame is also pointed at Amane. Who knows, perhaps he decided that it was better for everyone in the house to die along with the creature? The house is afraid of fire, and when it returns to its original state we see it all on fire. Which means he could have set it on fire with everyone inside.

I don't know if I really believe in the hypothesis that they all died because of the fire, since their ghosts don't have burn marks, but the fire is definitely present.

I don't know, the secret is in Hanako's sin, what did he do that was so terrible that it's worse than killing his own brother?

Stranger Things Femslash Week

Monday, April 10 - Women’s Wrongs

@strangerthingsfemslashweek

A Ronance drabble, in which Nancy commits a CRIME.

“Nance!”

“What?”

“That’s illegal!”

“It was in the reduced section Ro, it was literally a dollar.”

“It’s still stealing!”

Nancy looks from around the fridge door at her, and frowns. Robin gestures at the pineapple on their table accusingly.

“I can’t tell if you’re being serious or if this is a bit.”

“I am completely serious, what if they noticed and they get security to question us next time we go in?”

Part of Nancy wants to just hold Robin’s face and kiss her on the head for being so cute and flustered and another part is annoyed that this of all things, is an actual argument they appear to be moving towards.

“So, firstly, if they noticed they wouldn’t care because it was a reduced pineapple that would have been tossed tomorrow if I hadn’t bought it,” she closes the fridge, “Second, I only didn’t pay for it because their self-service machine doesn’t fucking work, so if there is some busy-body working there that was watching my every move, I could just say I didn’t notice that it didn’t scan.” Nancy finishes, grabbing the pineapple by the leaves, thumping it down on the chopping board, and picking up a knife.

Robin is still grumbling. Nancy rolls her eyes and turns round.

“I’ve assuaged your anxieties” she states, exasperated, “Is this a moral issue you have? Stealing from multi-million dollar retail corporations?”.

“Yes Nance, operative word ‘stealing’, is a moral issue for me.” Robin exclaims throwing her hands up.

“We have absolutely stolen before.”

“In dire, extreme apocalyptic end of the world situations!” Robin’s eyebrows have flown up under her bangs. It makes Nancy bite her lip not to smile.

“I’ve definitely done worse than steal” Nancy points out, her chest feels light with a weird kind of giddy excitement that she gets when she's 'arguing' with Robin.

“Again, different.” Robin walks closer to her, and Nancy steps in front of the pineapple to defend it “you did that to protect people.”

Nancy whips round and lops the top off the pineapple before Robin can grab it.

The affronted gasp from behind her breaks out Nancy's grin. She turns back around with a small piece of the pineapple between two fingers.

Robin is frowning, and her brow furrows further when she sees Nancy is laughing at her. Nancy pushes the fruit to the pout of her girlfriend’s lips.

“Babe,” she says sincerely “This was an act of love too, I don’t even really like pineapple.”

“The fact that you stole it for me makes it worse,” Robin tilts her head back but Nancy determinedly keeps it pushed to her chin. “You have made me morally complicit. Would you kill someone just if I asked you to?”

“Silly question, of course I would.” Nancy states pushing the fruit between Robin’s lips while there’s opportunity.

Robin makes a startled noise and it’s just so silly and Nancy just loves her she dissolves into giggles.

Then Robin is laughing too, and a piece of the pineapple flies out of her mouth over Nancy’s head and it just makes them laugh harder.

“We could make pineapple cake?” Nancy suggests looping her arms around Robin’s neck and pulling her down so she can kiss her sticky chin.

“No way.” Robin says, pressing a number of much stickier kisses to Nancy’s face, who cries out and pushes her away. “I’m eating the whole thing right now, gotta get rid of the evidence.”

Are people who say they hate americans referring to white americans? or our government and those in power?

There is no way these people GENUINELY think that after what Indigenous peoples and African Americans went through by the hands of white Americans in power that we are all for Israel, colonization, and everything bad in the book. I would love to speak to someone non-American about this because it's such a weird idea to me.

It also kills me because most of the time they use tweets from old white Christian Zionists as evidence and excuse to generalize... of course the most privileged Americans are brainwashed, they've never experienced racial or ethnic injustice a day in their life and are not in touch with anything.

It is the most annoying thing ever to see generalizations on 330 MILLION people 💀 it just upsets me as an African American to see people from different countries spreading the idea that most Americans are pro-Israel just because our government is. More than half of us are urging a ceasefire yet Biden himself has now said there is no possibility of one. Our president and politicians suck and are all suffering from dementia due to old age and NEWS BREAK: it's kind of hard to defy the government of the world's most powerful country.

Our government uses our tax dollars involuntarily to uphold another country's free healthcare and free education while we as Americans don't have either. If there is one thing all Americans can agree about it's that that's the most backward thing ever. What makes it even worse is that it seems our government has put all possible precautions in place to keep us from making real change.

Oh you want to boycott Israel? That's illegal in your state, nice try. Oh you want to stop paying taxes so that your hard earned money doesn't fund genocide? That's illegal, you're going to jail and losing your job. When you get out, companies with good pay will be much less likely to hire you so you're kind of fcked for the rest of your life. Nice try! and remember, you have freedom of speech as long as it doesn't hurt us 🥰

The American government cares nothing for its people, the Americans. If the U.S. was able to go to war with its own people, it would. If you came up to me and told me that there's some law out there that permitted our politicians and our very own president to shoot innocent protesting and boycotting Americans in the back of the head as they please, I wouldn't be shocked. It's really not so outlandish and unbelievable because that's just the type of stupidity the U.S. government would allow.

We are just as upset about this as you.

"people don’t like it when you say minimum wage should be a liveable wage" Because the countries where wages were determined by committee instead of market forces were totalitarian nightmares. Because you are talking about a system that killed millions, and starvation became the norm. “Why should I become a teacher or an electrician when McDonald’s pays enough for me to live on my own or even raise a family?” uh because you want to? Communists always say that people will just do the dangerous and dirty jobs out of the goodness of their hearts, yet most are useless people who openly boast of petty thievery. Communist societies tried this, it failed, so the next step was the use of force - to the point of three generations being sent to the gulag if one man says no to the job. " not being able to afford healthcare"

Healthcare will always be unafforadable at some level because there is infinite need and finite resources.

Throughout history, most people worked until they died. Only recently have we had a situation where the elderly can stop working and do nothing, and the cost of keeping them alive increases year by year. Someone in their eighties, for example, might need a new heart.

They can live like this, or they can get an artificial heart for some conditions that may work for a few years for around five hundred thousand american dollars. Or someone can be volunteered as a donor, which is what happens in communist countries.

So either you accept that people die, or you decide to sacrifice the lives of dissidents to save the lives of those beloved by The Party. There's no outcome that gives you free money, that lets everyone live forever, that means that you can sit about being The People's Poet whilst everyone else toils in the salt mines. If you ever succeed in your revolution, you will work where the State tells you to work, and you will go to the gulag if you don't like it.

youtube

Leftists could go and talk to the people who lived under communism - but they never do. Instead, they compare reality to the fantasy in their heads - and every failure for the reality to be as good is blamed on feelthy capiteeleeests ....

people don’t like it when you say minimum wage should be a liveable wage because it makes them think that all that money spent on schooling or training wouldn’t put them above “jobs meant for high school kids” on the social hierarchy.

“Why should I become a teacher or an electrician when McDonald’s pays enough for me to live on my own or even raise a family?” uh because you want to? what, you think people who are stuck in these “jobs for high school kids” due to a lack of employment opportunities and mobility should just go fuck themselves and even die from not being able to afford healthcare due to your own fragile pride and lack of care for your fellow man?

FOLKS – I IMPLORE YOU TO READ THIS. A word about insurance coverages…

No one “likes” to pay insurance premiums. In many cases, folks scrimp on insurance coverages to save a few dollars thinking that it really does not matter. In many cases, the general public is woefully unaware of the insurance coverages they have and only buy the minimum possible to comply with law or banking rules, etc.

I am writing this to provide general legal advice and a strong warning to all of my family, friends, clients and future clients…and it is CRITICALLY IMPORTANT information about insurance coverages – particularly auto insurance.

I am a personal injury lawyer. Car accidents cases are a big part of our practice. As a result, we have been involved with a number of very sad situations. I am going to share a couple of horror stories that are real cases:

Case No.: 1: Client was hit by another driver causing severe injuries to Client. Client suffered a fractured sternum, broken hip, broken shoulder, and crushed dominant right arm. Client had medical damages of $200,000 with no medical insurance. Client missed six (6) full months of work. Client’s car was a total loss. The defendant driver had only $100,000 in insurance coverage….not even half the value of the client’s medical losses alone.

Case No.: 2: Clients were hit by another driver. One was killed (wrongful death case) and one was catastrophically injured and will require lifetime care in a nursing home. Medicals totaled over $1 million dollars and will continue until the death of the surviving client. The driver who hit them had only $50,000 in insurance coverage.

These situations are more than just the injuries or deaths. They are also financial tragedies that could easily have been resolved if our client(s) had been aware of the following advice.

Insurance is required by the state of Virginia. It is illegal to operate a vehicle without it. Your auto insurance policy is a contract between you and the insurance company to do one of two things: 1.) pay a claim made against you in an accident; or 2.) defend against a claim made against you by providing a lawyer to protect your interests. The insurance company’s responsibility ends at the value of your policy – known as the “policy limits.” So, if you have $50,000.00 in policy limits, the insurer will pay up to $50,000 to settle a claim against you for negligence or defend that claim depending on several factors.

WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN: Most insurance policies break out your coverage on an auto policy with three values represented in three numbers like 100/300/50. This is a description of the following limits:

$100,000 per person bodily injury limit

$300,000 per accident bodily injury limit

$50,000 per accident property damage limit

If you have “full coverage insurance” on a vehicle – which is required in most cases to protect the lender who holds your vehicle loan – you will have “Comprehensive and Collision Coverage Limits.” This is usually equivalent to your vehicle's actual cash value at the time of the accident.

It is possible to buy Minimum Liability Limits in an auto policy. In Virginia, minimum limits are $30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $30,000 for property damage. Let me explain “per person” and “per occurrence.” Under that minimum coverage described, each person who is harmed or injured can collect a maximum of only $30,000. That is it. Nothing more. Have you had ANY medical treatment or an emergency room bill in the past 15 years? The flu can get a $30,000 E.R. bill. “Per occurrence” means that there is a total of $60,000 that can be divided among all of the injured parties if 2 or more. Clearly this is NOT enough money to protect you if you cause an accident and injure someone. Not even close.

UNDERINSURED/UNINSURED MOTORIST COVERAGE. All auto policies have underinsured/uninsured coverage. This coverage is just what it sounds like – it provides protection in case someone injures you in an auto accident and they have no coverage or not enough coverage. Here is the IMPORTANT part: The uninsured/underinsured coverage mirrors the amount of your liability coverage. It is the same amount. Therefore, if you “cheap out” on coverage and get minimum limits, you are cheating yourself of coverage you might need if someone else injures you!

Do you know what your insurance policy limits are on your vehicles? Find out. Today. Never buy only minimum coverage on your vehicle. The difference in minimum coverage and much higher coverage limits is usually only a few dollars more per month on your premium. The increased policy limits could prevent you from being sued, from losing your hard-earned property, and it could be the difference in recovering a reasonable value for injuries caused by someone else who does not have enough coverage. Take, for example the two cases mentioned above. If the folks who were injured had increased limits on THEIR policies, the recovery would have been higher – up to the full value of their own policy limits.

You NEED to know your insurance policy limits. Buy the maximum amount you can afford. You should also consider an umbrella policy of $1 million dollars – which is an inexpensive policy (couple hundred bucks a year) that kicks in after the auto policy pays out.

Hope this helps. Please share, share, share. Have a great weekend.

The only thing I hate about going to the gym...

The News

Some of it is very important and I pay attention because I need to. It upsets me, but I need to know.

Some of it shows the pure wretched depravity of the world we live in.

A man's MIL is fighting him tooth and nail. I don't have the full story because I'm a slow reader, and the subtitles went too fast, but it looks like the Mom wants her deceased daughter's million dollar estate.

Mom claims her daughter was not legally married when she was killed by a drunk driver on the night of her wedding.

Since this is in America and this wedding was planned, I'm certain the couple had already filed for a marriage certificate, so there's that, as well as you know, having the official ordained ceremony that day.

Apparently, Mom was trying to use some old law that states a couple needs to cohabitate on their wedding night for it to be official. However, South Carolina (the state the marriage took place) has no such law.

It's so stupid... I might look into more if I remember to. But I just wanted to say something about television and how much I hate it.

There was also some dumb shit about political candidates making fat jokes about their opponents... These are seriously the people we have to compete for control of the country? I'm embarrassed that everyone can watch the sheer stupidity that is American politics these days.

And then there was shit that nobody should care about, like Oprah losing weight. Who fucking cares? I don't. I want to know who to rally against in the Isreal Problem. There was a segment about a University President (Penn State, I think. Will correct if I remember to) losing her job (rightfully) for saying genocide is necessary (not her exact words... but they were disgusting words). I need someone to tell me exactly why Palestine needs to disappear, and then I want you to tell me your thoughts on the Holocaust and Antisemitism as a whole. I'll look at you and tell you that what is happening in Palestine has nothing to do with Antisemitism, you're just using that word as a weapon to attack people who disagree with your gross colonialism (Jews are being prosecuted for speaking out against the genocide of Palestine by the way sooo).

Being educated hurts... But it's very necessary... So necessary, in fact, Republicans are actively trying to defund education and remove our access to it.

And I sound like a conspiracy theorist right? BUT THE REPUBLICANS HAVE ACTIVELY ADMITTED TO THESE THINGS! Their quotes are preserved by media!

While I'm on it, Republicans love to accuse the Left of insane bullshit right? It's all projection. They are trying to shift attention by projecting their crimes onto this proverbial Left.

Idk.

I hate the news.

Robodebt

A phalanx of politicians announced the completion of the Robodebt Royal Commission and that the federal government would be accepting all its 50 something findings. This disgusting policy initiative by the previous Coalition government went after 500, 000 Australians accusing them of fraudulently taking social security money and owing the government thousands of dollars. Robodebt was wrong and illegal from its very start but the LNP ministers went on an ideological crusade to make half a million Aussies criminals and welfare cheats. This appealed to the downward envy of Australians groomed by Coalition political strategists. Tony Abbott masterminded Robodebt, Scott Morrison carried it out with gusto, Alan Tudge was complicit in it, and Stuart Robert got his hands dirty too.

Mothers lost sons!

Coalition Robocops & Robodebt

These LNP politicians bragged in the media that they were Robocops going after Australians rorting the system. It was a crusade to raise money and just as importantly to identify villains that working Australians could righteously despise. The overarching message was that folks on social welfare were second class citizens and many of them were criminals to boot. The whole thing blew up in their face eventually but not before some vulnerable Australians killed themselves in despair. A settled class action by those wrongly accused has cost the Australian tax payers $1.8 billion and counting.

Who Is Going To Pay For The Robodebt Crime? The journalists asking questions of the phalanx of ALP government ministers announcing the Robodebt findings wanted to know who is being charged over this debacle. Talk of public service disciplinary reviews was not quite what they had in mind. The investigative journalists who had followed the inquiry over many months and listened to the repeated failures of oversight and the illegality of the scheme wanted to know who would be held to account. If this Royal Commission was more than political window dressing heads would have to roll. Australians are getting sick of these high falutin inquiries resulting in nix, nothing, and zilch, when it comes to individuals being prosecuted. If lives were lost and billions of dollars wasted who is going to pay for it?

Centrelink Might Answer The Phone Yes, the Albanese government are going to add 3 000 Centrelink workers so that someone will answer the phone within a couple of hours instead of the current 4 hours, if you are lucky. This state of affairs has been in place for more than a decade, including during the Rudd and Gillard governments. Tough love has been the unspoken policy for social welfare in Australia for a long time. The economics drive the bus. The message goes out to the electorate that welfare is bad and the people on it are second class. This was one of the reasons why it was so easy for Abbott, Morrison, Payne and Co to introduce and run Robodebt. Making out that many Aussies were welfare cheats was just an extension of the messaging governments had been making for many years.

RBA Full Employment Means 500, 000 Aussies Out Of Work The Reserve Bank of Australia predicate their idea of full employment for the economy on a 4.5% unemployment rate. That is 500, 000 Australians without gainful employment. This setting is their idea of what drives the bus for low inflation and economic growth. Michelle Bullock, the new boss, has emphasised this repeatedly of late. Therefore, these folks are necessary economic scapegoats for the Australian economy to flourish. At the same time government policy has been to beat up on these people by paying them below the poverty line welfare. Plus, to infer to the media that they are dole bludgers taking the rest of us for a ride. Downward envy is an Olympic sport in Australia.

Show Us Some Blood, Cry The Media So, you can understand the media’s scepticism when it comes to grandiose statements about the Robodebt Royal Commission. Show us some real blood, some real consequences, the media pack cried out. Kathryn Campbell, the senior public servant in charge, has been suspended, but what else? Politicians don’t like to see their political opponents actually get the chop, because of an attitude of ‘there but for the grace of god go I.’ It is all play acting to a large extent. It is only the little people, like you and I, who actually suffer and literally go under. These talking heads are just that. They pander for the cameras and make speeches. It is all about political mileage. Robodebt was a crime against humanity. And we the people want to see someone go down for it. Robert Sudha Hamilton is the author of Money Matters: Navigating Credit, Debt, and Financial Freedom. ©WordsForWeb Read the full article

And another fucking thing. I doubt I will see this on tumblr.com but I do NOT want to see some jackass complain that “oh yeah well why should my tax dollars go towards paying for someone else’s education?” Shut up and look at the big picture. Look at the how this benefits society and makes people happier.

You want to look at how it improves your life? Alright, buddy. What if there is some poor and/or neurodivergent kid for whom the cost of college is too much. But they are absolutely brilliant. Overflowing with potential. A success story waiting to happen. You have a couple cents go out of your paycheck and suddenly this kid can get an education and they discover a radical new treatment for lung cancer, and they save your smoking relative’s life.

There is so much we don’t know about the world and there are so many people who are so close to revealing secrets not yet uncovered, but are forced down by a system that punishes them for situations out of their control. Maybe they were born into poverty. Maybe their brain works a bit differently. I��ll say it again: this is inhumane. It is infuriating that the solution to the problem is literally just redirecting the government’s budget a bit.

Where would the money come from? I don’t know, maybe tax the fucking rich. Your ass might not pay a cent more. Massachusetts just passed the Fair Share Amendment to our state constitution, which creates a 4% income tax increase on individuals earning over $1,000,000/year, applying only to that portion above 1 million. That increased state revenue is then constitutionally guaranteed to go to funding our schools and transportation infrastructure. This shit can happen in ways that don’t tax most people at all.

And come on. Even if we not-rich folks have to pay for it, if some of my hard earned tax dollars (that because of how my brain works, I might well have had to work harder than you for) can go to Raytheon to make missiles and the military to kill innocent civilians in the Middle East, I think some of your tax dollars can send some people to school. The system is broken and people like me are suffering because of it. So either march with me or get the fuck out of my way.

Ableism in the Pricing of Higher Education

I have one more semester of college left, god permitting. Because of the ways my disabilities (ADHD, Autism, and Bipolar Disorder) impede my learning and my productivity, I have had to work so hard to get even mediocre results in college. And I've had to take on so much more debt. Despite it all, I'm going to make it through, and I'm damn PROUD of it. But let's talk about it, because this system is fucking broken and I'm fucking angry about it.

This gets pretty long after the cut, so TL;DR:

Universal public college tuition and student loan debt forgiveness are not just economic issues. They are disability issues, and we need to fight for them like it.

The pricing scheme at my university functions probably not unlike most higher education institutions. Any student who takes three or fewer courses a semester pays à la carte. A set amount for each class. Any student who takes four or more courses a semester pays the same flat rate. The more courses you take, the farther your money goes.

This is broken and it's insane that this is the standard. Of the eight semesters I've completed, I only tried taking the "standard" five courses twice. Both times, I had to withdraw from at least one of them because the workload was too heavy. My brain just isn't wired in a way that can handle that much work and mental bandwidth. My attention span only goes so far, and it gets even worse if my meds aren't just right.

So every other semester, I've taken four courses. The minimum to be considered a full-time student and to pay the flat rate. Each semester, I've raked in a maximum of 12 credits. I say maximum because there have even been four-course semesters that I've had to withdraw from one just to pass the other three. Meanwhile, the assumption is that neurotypical people take five courses a semester.

My university, like pretty much every one in the US, requires 120 credits to graduate with a Bachelor's degree. At 3 credits per course (generally), that's 40 courses. A neurotypical person taking 5 each semester can graduate in 8 semesters, or 4 years. At that same pace, that sets someone like me at graduating in 5 years. Now I'm an laden with an extra year's worth of debt compared to them.

That all assumes I pass all my classes every time, which sometimes, I just fucking can't because my brain is crosswired for what they want it to do. I'm hopefully going to manage to graduate in 9 semesters. How? Well I went into college with 15 credits from dual enrollment in high school (that we paid for out of pocket). That gave me the wiggle room to only take 4 courses each semester. But with my performance, there are still gaps.

I've needed to take two summer courses, which each cost me about $1,300. I'm currently earning 3 credits doing study abroad, which I do admit is an expensive way of going about getting credits, but the program alone (without airfare and living expenses) was about $5,000. Without these "extra" credits, I wouldn't nearly be able to graduate when I will be.

All the while, some neurotypical people are out here taking five or even six classes and paying the exact same rate that I am. They're graduating earlier and not going into as much debt, what, because they happen to have the brains that this pricing scheme favors?

This isn't even considering jobs. Other students are able to balance having a job and taking a full course load. Graduating faster, paying less, and actively earning money to offset the cost more. I'm not going to pretend it's easy for all of them. No way. That's a stressful way to live, but the point is that they can live that way. I can't. I just can't.

I'm going to name my privilege because it's a big one here. My family is decently wealthy. As long as I can remember, we've been able to live comfortably. Financial aid agreed, apparently, because even after the loans I'm allowed, we still pay about $9,000 out of pocket every semester. Put that up against someone in my same financial situation but with a brain that works the way the college thinks it should. That's another $18,000 my family is on the hook for compared to them, all for the same degree. It's bullshit.

But if someone with a brain like mine isn't as fortunate financially as I am, where the fuck are they gonna get that extra money? My family paid for my summer courses and study abroad out of pocket. Where is that less privileged student getting that fucking money? A job? Yeah right, they can barely stay off academic probation from poor grades, like me. What part of this is fair? It's not fair to me, and it's certainly not fair to anyone less wealthy than me.

The short term solution is so obvious it hurts. Create a separate pricing plan that costs the same, but just takes longer. Have me pay less per semester than someone taking 5 courses, and in exchange, prohibit me from taking more than 4. They are using more resources than me, so in the capitalist mindset, they ought to pay more than me.

Fuck the capitalist mindset, though. Fuck everything about college costing money. What the hell? I go to a public, state-funded university and I'm still tens of thousands of dollars in debt? And my parents have just that much less money in their retirement accounts? Financially at least, I have it fucking easy. My family can tank the costs. We can take out a home equity loan because we can afford our own house in this economy. Not everyone can.

Fuck it. This is inhumane. Education is a society's greatest asset. When people are allowed to achieve their ambitions and succeed in life, the economy performs better. Standards of living go up. Democracies become healthier. Most importantly, the people are happier. Because what's more important than being happy and healthy?

So when education is locked behind a fucking paywall, who wins? Not the students, and not society. Taking financial privilege out of it, the worst losers are people like me. People whose minds just can't work in a way that lets us take 5 courses and a part time job at the same time. We are fucking losing. We are losing money and we are losing time in our lives. All this debt sets back our savings, our investments, our stability to start our own families.

Universal public college tuition and student loan debt forgiveness are not just economic issues. They are disability issues. People like me are paying a price that neurotypical people don't have to, and it doesn't have to be that way. There are ways that we can make it better for us, and there are ways that we can make it better for everyone. So let's fucking do them, alright?

That means voting for the people that will put those policies in place. That means protesting when they don't. That means walking out of class and protesting ableist school administrations. That means being an active citizen in our democracy. If we need to fight to get the things that we need to thrive, then we are gonna have to give one hell of a fight.

I would like to take this time before SNL starts to tell you all how much Elon Musk sucks. He's literally going to make a shit ton of money off of hosting; not only is he being paid to do it, but its projected the stocks in Tesla and Dogecoin will go up massively- effectively making him even richer than he already is.

Speaking of Dogecoin, cryptocurrency is literally polluting the Earth at alarming rates. It may be trendy to have, but the servers running it are literally putting out millions of megatons in carbon dioxide. Not only is Elon Musk polluting the Earth, but space too.

He sent a sports car into space, and for what? Because he could? He created more space junk, something that's already a decently large problem, just to show off how much money and technology he has. Not to mention the 1,300 satellites he's put in orbit, some of which are already no longer operational, plus he plans to send more to create something called starlink. But it's doing more damage than good, the satellites will create light pollution, causing a massive hit to astronomy and astronomical images, while continuing to create more space junk as well as "traffic jams" in orbit because of how many he's sending up. He has literally enlisted the help of famed car designer to design RC cars to race on the moon, they'll be sent to space in October.

Not to mention how he runs Tesla. The working conditions in Tesla factories are reportedly horrible. He's extremely anti union, going as far as to illegally threaten to take away stock options if his employees did unionize.

Tesla doesn't pay taxes, and now that Elon, SpaceX headquarters, as well as Tesla headquarters are going to be in Texas, he will save millions in taxes each year because Texas has no state income tax. Elon Musk is the second richest man, he is worth 164.2 billion dollars, and he's cheating the system so he doesn't have to pay taxes. Oh! And let's not forget when he said another stimulus check was a bad idea in July of 2020, in the middle of a fucking pandemic, while he was making 4.9 billion dollars in government subsidies. He's a piece of shit.

Someone needs to stop him before he does irreversible damage to our planet. I get that he thinks this is just some simulated world and he's doing no real damage, but that simply isn't true. So fuck Elon Musk, and fuck whoever decided to feed into this vanity project and let him host. He isn't an actor, nor a comedian, nor a singer; he's a billionaire who's effectively killing our Earth and he gets rewarded by hosting a comedy show. This just goes to show that if you have enough money you can do anything you want. I'd say I hope the episode tanks, but that wouldn't be fair to the writers and cast members who put their hearts and souls into each sketch.

EDIT: Some sources I used

Environmental damage due to cryptocurrency, bitcoin specifically

Space pollution he's creating from all of his satellites

Evading income tax by moving to Texas (all of the billionaires move to states with no income tax 😒)

Article about his anti union comments and tweets

You know, the entire US economic system is so messed up and so is a lot of your views of it (and I mean on both sides, I also include myself in this since I often don't realize until I *really* think about it) but like. Let's start by talking about taxes. There was a post going around lately that was like

Anyways this is not true. You can deduct INTEREST on mortgage from your taxes. Not mortgage itself. And for renters, in 23 states you can do the same. It's meant to be an offset for property taxes, which, in case you didn't know, are INSANE. Like my family pays more taxes on our house and property then on THE ENTIRE REST OF OUT TAXES, and we're in the top tax bracket. They don't tax you nearly enough on your ACTUAL INCOME but tax you way to much on your property and stock. It's basically based on, if you sold everything right now, what would we then be able to tax you. It's not measuring how much you make on a year to year basis, it's measuring how much you managed to save up over a long period in order to buy your big household a home that has enough space for everyone. It's definitely possible with housing/property taxes for them to cost so much that you can no longer afford your house and land, that you reasonably worked and saved up for. That's kind of unfair. Especially if you bought it when housing was cheap, and since the value on such things has gone up, so have your taxes. You weren't spending an insane amount of money on it. But now it's worth about 1.1 million and you've gotta move out or pay taxes on that. That's a thing that happens.

And meanwhile, a mega rich person who loves the city and therefore doesn't bother with a lot of land is taxed less than the moderately well off person in the previous example.

So the tax system is messed up, people need to pay more based on their actual income and less based on their homes.

Oh another thing with taxes is you know how charitable donations are tax deductible? Yeah only to a certain amount, meaning that there is no incentive for rich people to donate the proper amount given their income. Yes, I think they should give regardless of whether they're going to be rewarded for it, but people who hoard THAT MUCH money are selfish, and they're not going to. My family is not even that rich (dad worth something in the 10s of millions) but the amount we give (no big deal for us) is ALREADY well above the amount you can deduct from taxes. And we don't mind, but the super rich? Do you think they're going to go out of their way to support causes with anything more than petty cash and not be rewarded for it? They're not.

Ultimately, they shouldn't have such extravagant amounts of money in the first place, since they didn't work for it. My dad, which I mentioned previously, works 10+ hours a day, often including weekends. That's real work. His field is high paid and he in particular is high paid since he's the only one who can do what he does, and he gets extra for INVENTING most of the things his companies are based on, which he, you know SPENDS TIME STUDYING AND WORKING ON AND CREATING. He's not making tons of money just by owning something. That's wrong. All that excess cash should be going to the people who actually do the work.

And I think for the most part everyone acknowledges this, but y'all talking about killing the 1% doesn't realize how broad the 1% is. That includes doctors, lawyers, high level computer scientists, that WORK for their living, and are not exploiting you. Who you're looking to target is the owners, the people who hoard billions or trillions of dollars in wealth. Do you even know how much a trillion is? Let's say you take a rich person worth about 10 million. Ok how much more does someone worth a trillion make? They make 100,000 times more. What can you afford these days with 10 million? A nice house, decent cars for the household members that drive, some land, the ability to not worry about medical bills and to pay for college, plus a bit extra to save or give to charity. How nice. A lot of people don't have that privilege. What about 1 trillion? There is not a house in existence that will make a dent in your finances. You could send your children to any college they want for their whole lives and not make a dent in your finances. You could buy companies on a whim with almost no consequence. It's not right. It's especially not right when other people have trouble paying for both rent and groceries.

If we redistributed the 8 richest people's wealth (the 8 of them have more money than the poorest HALF of the planet combined), you all could afford a home, food, a good education, and have a reasonable amount left over.

And this is why, even growing up rich, I'm such a communist. It is not a fever dream for us ALL to be able to live, comfortable, reasonable lives. The current wealth in the world redistributed, and suddenly everyone could live like I do. It isn't lessening the average person's quality of living. For the vast majority of us, communism done right is nothing but an upgrade. Yeah so a fistful of billionaires and trillionaires will be really upset. They'd still have enough to live comfortably and yet they're the ones who own so much they can effectively block any progress in this direction. It's pure selfishness.

#economics #finance #money #money tips brought to you by a rich person: communism is right actually #at the very least socialism like come on #really anything that doesn't allow people to hoard such MASSIVE amounts of money #at least not without fair taxation #our tax brackets don't go high enough to deal with those people accurately #and they sure can afford to make it stay that way

Desperately in need of a roommate, your co-worker knows a guy, but why did it have to be Adrian? The guy both annoyed and frustrated the hell out of you getting under your skin from the very moment that you had meet him.

But this was only temporary there was no need to complicate things by really getting to know one another or even worse catch feels along the way. Sure it had been a while for both of you but hooking up with your roommate was a terrible idea…wasn’t it?

(Words)

(Warnings)

Mentions of ex, cannon type violence from Vij, bad hook up sex, Lara, Scott & Phoebe are all monsters🤣 Adrian is still clueless, 18+ ONLY

{FOUR }

Tonight Vigilante was on a roll, because the criminal underneath his black boot currently was the third one he had caught tempting their own fate by crossing his path, what an idiot!

Bouncing his foot hard on the guy who had decided to try and rob the gas station nearby, Adrian was smirking to himself underneath his mask he was so pumped because tonight was really rocking.

“You do know I am gonna have to kill you now dude.” Vigilante informs the guy as he adds pressure onto his chest, forcing his boot which makes the guy on the floor groan in pain.

“Why kill me? There are way worse criminals around here all I did-“

“Either way what you did do was wrong and you need to pay.” Vigilante states in a bored tone as he bends down to grab the guy, by the scruff of his black hoodie pulling him up a little so he could hit him with a firm left hook.

Knocking his head back onto the pavement Adrian steps off the guy, deciding to let him stay there for a little while, seeing how he was unresponsive when he kicked at his side.

Bouncing on both his feet now Adrian felt super confident and just pretty much at the top of his game, partly due to the costume he was wearing but mostly it was because of what Phoebe had said to him.

He couldn’t stop thinking about how talk back at the coffee shop the other day had gone from Vigilante, to him managing to sneak a question or two about you into the conversation, he assumed quite subtly because he chose to ignore the wide smile that had appeared on Phoebe’s face.

“Get-get up and fight!” The dude on the floor splutters deliriously, clearly having hit his head hard causing Adrian to look down, and proceed to kick him in the side again, hard.

Looking back up Adrian pictures the very moment when he had been given the best chance to talk about you with Phoebe, whilst you had been seeing to your hand that you’d burned, of course he’d wanted to help you but he knew that would have just made things awkward.

“So you would like Vigilante to come and rescue you one night then?” Adrian had asked Phoebe whose eyes had widen, from the flirty tone he’d adopted, secretly channelling the inner anti hero inside of him.

“I dunno-“ Phoebe starts with a giggle and a shrug of her shoulders, that makes her dirty blonde hair bounce along at the same time.

“So, you think Vigilante is hot then?” Adrian asks making Phoebe go red in the cheeks it appeared he knew how to make some women blush easily now, cool.

“How do I know-“

“What do you think Y/N thinks of me?” Adrian cuts off Phoebe with the million dollar question, without a sense of hesitation seeing the moment and taking it with both hands, noticing the wide smile that suddenly takes over the barista’s face after he’d said it.

“Huh! Why do you ask that Adrian?” Phoebe asks far louder than she should have, looking around the front of the shop for someone, but seeing it was only herself her eyes land back on him.

“I’m just wondering-“

“Oh come on dude!” Laughs Phoebe who adds quickly when she spots the look on Adrian’s face “I’m pretty sure Y/N likes you it’s just complicated-“

“How could it be complicated?” Adrian cuts in looking confused at Phoebe who rolls her eyes.

“You need to ask her that yourself I think Adrian, just keep being a good roommate and friend and see where it leads I don”t-“

“Friend? Does my name come up a lot in discussions here-“

“We are always talking about you and guess who brings you up like all the time.-“

“She does?” Cuts in Adrian leaning up off the counter with a huge grin plastered across his face.

“You two have got it so bad it’s freaking adorable .” Phoebe declares with an exaggerated smile in his direction.

“Got what bad-“

“I need to get back to work.” Phoebe cuts him off with a smile, as she heads off towards the register and her words sink into his mind, committed to memory.

Adrian still wasn’t sure what him and his roommate had bad exactly but he was ready to find out, he just needed to stop imaging your face from the other day, the look that had almost made him want to grab your face with both his hands and kiss you.

His fantasy of repeating the scene in the kitchen often played out in his head, seeing that look of pure lust and how if he could replay it out again, he would place both his hands on your face and pull you closer to kiss those soft lips.

But instead he had been momentarily confused by the whole situation, only after he had left the apartment did it sink in that the way you had been looking at him was kind of a turn on ,he thinks for all who was involved if truth be told.

Before he could think of it anymore the guy on the floor kicks at Adrian’s leg causing him to go down onto his knees, caught off guard because he had been thinking about your soft lips again, he curses as he grabs at the guy who it seems wants to fight for his life.

Vigilante punches the guy once he’s back on his feet, and this is enough to knock the idiot back down so with one swift stab in the chest, with a knife the guy loses both the fight and his life.

Or so Adrian thinks but the guy splutters up blood coming out of one side of his mouth, which he usually thought only happened in movies or those dramas set in busy hospitals, oh shoot the guy wouldn’t last long out here regardless.

Heading back to his Vigilante-mobile Adrian wonders very briefly what you would make of all this, but he doesn’t like to think this for too long he knew to leave those kind of thoughts, well alone from past experiences.

Instead he pulls off his mask once he is settled in his car replacing his glasses, he starts to take off his chest plate placing it on the seat behind him, then he changes rather awkwardly into an old pair of loose fitting jeans and a blue tee because he wasn’t heading back into the apartment in full Vigilante gear.

Shoving his large grey backpack that he filled up with his costume and empty utility belt, Adrian makes quick work of replacing his knives, gun and throwing stars into the correct places inside his metal box, which he grabs then heading back outside humming to himself as he shoves it back into the trunk.

Back inside the car he fiddles with the dials until he finds some music, and not just stupid advert jingles if listened to would very easily get stuck in his head, but perhaps that would be a good thing.

Despite it being after four in the morning right this second and still dark outside, Adrian tries to ignore the annoying butterflies in his stomach purely bought on from the thought of possibly seeing you in the apartment.

Of course you would obviously still be asleep he hoped, running a hand through his damp hair stuck to his forehead from wearing the mask for hours, deciding he looked as terrible as he suddenly felt needing a long nap before his shift later at work.

He hoped that he didn’t run into you because when you were normally asleep he could hear your soft snores it was kind of cute, the very thought makes the flutter in his stomach intensify, why did he even care so much?

Maybe it was actually time to take Scott’s advice, which in turn also sounded a lot likes Phoebe’s sage words which she has bestowed upon him, how did they know so much about this and him so little?

Sure he had dated, well been on dates and had sex despite being a late bloomer he had assumed he’d caught up fast but according to his friends he didn’t have a clue, apparently.

All he needed to do was either tell you how he felt which he couldn’t describe in words so well, but could easily show you if only he had the same confidence as Vigilante, when instead he was himself the loser with the super toned body and a penchant for vengeance.

Or chose the second option which was asking Eric, a guy Adrian worked with to set him up with his hot cousin finally because he said he would but never followed through, those were his only choices.

Softly hitting his head on the steering wheel in front of him Adrian soon sat back up, got comfortable in his seat and turning the key on the ignition set off back to the apartment humming a tune from a Burger King advert all the way.

“Yeah, Adam is basically a doctor only he works in a pharmacy just not in Evergreen though.” Phoebe explains with a smile whilst you wish that someone would come and free you from this nightmare.

Sitting in the office you had hoped to be left alone but not in this place because Phoebe had sought you out to tell you a hundred and one pointless facts about her older brother, which was something you hadn’t asked for at all.

“So Adam is a pretty big deal maybe I could actually give you his number-“

“I don’t need it!” You cut her for trying not to shout but failing miserably going by the look on the young barista’s face.

“Oh, ok.” Phoebe begins awkwardly but then her face suddenly brightens as she asks sweetly instead “ So how’s Adrian? I haven’t seen him come into the shop for a couple of days?”

“I don’t know what he gets up all the time.” You state with a firm shrug to signal the end of that conversation but it’s no good.

“Yeah, but you must see him at your apartment catch a glance of him-“

“Why are you even asking?” You ask Phoebe who quickly looks away from you, glancing down at her knees like they were the most interesting thing ever.

Then it suddenly hits you, what if Phoebe was trying to distract you with Adam so she could get to know Adrian a little more, well he did like blondes after all.

Either way you decide that this needed to end it was time to actually get a life for once, rather than focusing on Adrian and the memory of seeing him shirtless, because it was right up there in your daydreams and that was pretty pathetic.

“Do you like Adrian?” You ask Phoebe who does something you weren’t expecting, bursts out laughing at your question which she clearly thought was a joke.

“Why do you even care?” Begins Phoebe once the giggles have subsided then she adds with a grin “Because now I’m wondering why it would bother you me liking your roommate, which I don’t by the way.”

“I don’t care by the way!” You state lamely whilst Phoebe rewards you with a disbelieving look which makes you add “ I was just making conversation!”

“It seems like a lot of people are asking me about what you think of them recently.” Phoebe states cryptically which instantly annoys you.

“Ok, I only asked because I thought you were trying to get me interested in Adam so you could get to know Adrian more.” You explain quickly ripping the band aid off firmly so you could instantly change the subject afterwards.

“I was trying to get you to talk to Adam to make Adrian jealous not you!” Laughs Phoebe whilst you shake your head at her.

“This is ridiculous-“

“You two are freaking ridiculous.” Phoebe grins but stops when you don’t join in with the moment.

“Why are you even here in the office again?” You ask firmly but softly trying not to sound pissed off in the process.

“I came to see you on my break, girls hanging out!” Phoebe sing songs with a smile then adds as an afterthought “But Scott did tell me to go and wind you up about your roommate.”

“Ugh, you guys are like children it’s like being in fucking Kindergarten working with you two!” You retort with a sigh adding “Am I going to see Scott come in here in a minute and tug on your ponytail making you cry.”

“I would punch him in the arm if he did that.” Phoebe replies with a smirk then asks “ Scott is harmless he’s just looking out for his friend who has it pretty bad right now..”

“If you mean Adrian we are just roommates, barely even friends at this point.” You tell Phoebe with a fake smile completely over this conversation now, this was becoming a regular thing at the moment you realise in frustration.

“Well you know what you need to do then!” Phoebe states with glee on her face which you chose to ignore, sure you had wanted to get to know these two but at what cost.

You come home from the coffee shop both exhausted and nervous that night walking into the kitchen, but stopping in your tracks when you notice the large bouquet of flowers on the counter.

For one crazy second you think they are from Adrian but you know he wouldn’t do something like that, it was a stupid thought and you step forward instantly trying to forget about it, noticing the thick white envelope attached to the dozen ruby red roses.

“I found them outside when I got home.” You hear Adrian explain which makes you jump because you had been lost in your own thought for a few moments.

“Oh sure-“

“Who are they from?” Adrian asks curiously as he cuts you off looking at the roses then back to your face.

“I-I think I have an idea.” You state darkly not meeting Adrian’s eyes as you pick up the white envelope.

“Your ex!?” Adrian exclaims at the same time that you briefly read then note that came with roses.

“I need to speak to you, please let me back in I miss you so much we can’t throw this away I still love you.”

“Asshole.” You mutter out loud ripping the note in half throwing it behind it you, as you make a grab for the flowers but Adrian places his hand over yours, which stops you from instantly throwing them.

“Let me get rid of them.” Adrian begins in a low but deep voice that makes you silently nod back as he gently removes the bouquet from your hand.

Watching as he walks off towards the open window Adrian leans over and throws the roses out of the window, making you let out a breath you weren’t aware you were holding.

“All gone.” Adrian confirms with a nod then walking back over to you with concern in his eyes he asks you “ So, will you tell me about your ex now?”

“Nothing to tell its all in the past.” You tell him in a tone that suggests you don’t want to talk about it but of course Adrian doesn’t pick up on this.

“If you want my help with-“

“I’m fine! I will just carry on ignoring him and eventually he will get the hint.” You state with a nod unsure who you were trying to convince because you didn’t sound very confident in your own words.

“Roses don’t seem like a good fit your either I bet they aren’t even your favourite flower.” Adrian scoffs with a smile which makes a small smirk tug at your lips despite what had happened.

“I hate roses.” You explain with a grin making Adrian nod and look like he was storing that information for another time.

“So what are your favourite-“

“Thanks for getting rid of them for me that was all I needed right now.” You cut off Adrian with a thankful smile.

“Oh sure!” Begins Adrian rubbing a hand behind the back of his neck but he then looks down at you and states “But if you do ever need my help you’ve got my number ok, I’ll be there right away any time or place.”

“Thank you, that means a lot Adrian.” You tell him with a friendly grin because you needed all the help you could get right now.

“We could even go out together-“

Saved from whatever Adrian was going to say you are distracted when you hear your phone ping, three times in a row signalling that you had some new messages.

“I need to get these.” You begin awkwardly at Adrian who just stands on the spot and silently nods back at you for a few moments.

“Oh, sure, I’m super busy too!” Adrian declares then adds quickly “Lots to do and hardly any time to do it you know.”

Nodding back at Adrian you then spin round on the spot, and head to your bedroom pulling your phone from your jeans pocket, as soon as you close the door behind you.

The messages were from Lara who was excited to inform you that tomorrow night you had a date with Rob, the very idea makes you feel sick because something had to give could this be the turning point you’ve been waiting for.

Of course you would go on this date though you needed to get that life you kept mentioning, but you smile sweetly to yourself when you think about what Adrian had been about to ask you, luckily you had been saved by the ping hadn’t you?

Hearing a soft knock on the office door the next day you look up to see whoever had knocked hadn’t just walked in, so you could only assume it was Lara who you had asked to meet you for lunch on her break, because you was freaking out still.

How had your life turned into this chaotic mess you had no one to blame but yourself right now, yet that was besides the point you decide, puling open the door to see Lara grinning wickedly at you because she wasn’t alone.

“Hey Y/N!” Phoebe greets you looking guilty as hell but you glance back at Lara, when she nudges your barista with her shoulder.

What was going on now?

“I just stopped by to tell you that Adrian was here.” Phoebe announces in a nonchalant voice like him being here, didn’t instantly make you want to smile to yourself, like an idiot.

“You sure he isn’t here to see Scott?” You ask then regret it because your other barista wasn’t even in work yet.

“I think it’s time I met this guy-“

“No! Wait!” You hold up both your hands in front of Lara who widens her eye at you, whilst Phoebe beside her descends into giggles, ending up on the floor on her knees in the process.

“That was so funny!” Declares Phoebe in-between childish giggles as she announces “Your face was so funny, you are too easy to wind up Scott was-“

“Ok, very funny now can you get back to work?” You tell Phoebe through gritted teeth noticing the smirk on Lara’s face.

“Sure. I’ve already told Lara what’s been up with you and your roomie because you both need all the help you can get-“

“I actually have a date tonight!” You practically yell, causing one of the kitchen staff to stop in their tracks and hold their fist in the air in solidarity, which makes you roll your eyes back at them.

“You do? Does Adrian-“

“Work, please.” You plead with Phoebe who pulls an exaggerated face then quickly heads off, back towards the kitchen because you had given her some new gossip.

“I see this place hasn’t changed much.” Grins Lara as you let her into the office slamming the door behind you, sighing as you fall back into Connor’s chair checking the time because the manager was actually due in to work later.

“Just ignore whatever Phoebe-“

“She showed me pictures of her super hot but fake doctor brother that you said no to.” Cuts in Lara with a laugh when she spots your face.

“Don’t start-“

“Now why would you do that?” Lara carries on regardless warming to her theme of annoying the fuck out of you, something she did well as a best friend.

“Because of my date of course-“

“But you didn’t get that until after you had met him so-“

“I asked you to come join me so I wouldn’t freak out anymore and your not helping!”You cut off whatever Lara was about to say and she stops smiling when she hears the nervousness in your voice.

“About the date?” Lara asks in confusion.

“That and just life in general.” You nod back making Lara smile softly at you, adding another nod for luck because she was always a good listener, when she wasn’t teasing you.

So you rearrange focus from Adrian to the date with Rob tonight, not mentioning the flowers because they were nothing it was bad enough your roommate seeing them, you just wanted to forget about them right now.

Rob was taking you to a friends party which was a weird first date choice because you realise you wouldn’t know anyone else, but Lara tells you to relax he would swing by, pick you up in the cab and look after you all night.

“If anything I like the sound of the last part.” You deadpan which makes Lara pull out some snacks from her bag all the while with a wicked grin on her face.

“That’s the you we all know and love, I’ve missed her!” Lara declares pretending to wipe away tears from her eyes which makes you roll yours in return.

“Let me grab us some subs and then we can talk about outfits for tonight.” You smirk at Lara who nods back with a surprised smile on her face.

“I thought you was freaking out?” Lara asks when you return with sandwiches needed to be used up by today, stolen food always tasted so good.

“You being here is helping-“

“So does Adrian know about your big date tonight?” Questions Lara getting straight to the point the only way she knew how.

“Of course not!” You scoff then add “ I don’t have to tell him everything!”

“Oh that reminds me!” Begins Lara with an excited smile as she adds “ I have a date tonight too with the new intern at work.”

“Lucky guy.” You nod back as Lara gives you the details which of course mean she will be inviting him round her place tonight.

“Maybe Rob will be your lucky guy?” Lara questions with a grin on her face.

“So, who is this Rob you speak of? Adrian is going to be hella pissed at his roomie.” Scott announces from behind the half open office door cursing to yourself for leaving it open and not locking the damn thing.

“Ok, it’s rude to listen in on other people’s conversations and I bet Adrian wouldn’t care less.” You inform him with an annoyed voice that you hoped he would pick up on and leave, but naturally he doesn’t.

Instead you sit there and listen whilst Lara and Scott talk like you’re not even here, how there is so much tension between you two also how clueless you and Adrian both were, it makes you grit your teeth.

“This isn’t funny.” You declare when Scott makes Lara laugh and you notice how he sit’s up in the seat next to her a little higher, a wide grin on his face as he hastily brushes some hair away from his face.

“Just have some fun tonight.” Lara winks at you then adds “ Failing that you could see if Adrian needs-“

“I don’t even care why everyone is in my office just get out now.” Connor announces to the room making you dart your head up and spot your boss, giving you a look but he is then distracted by Lara as you all file out of the room quickly.

“Who is the blonde?” Connor asks with a smug grin loud enough for Lara to hear.

“Too good for the likes of you.” Lara deadpans sweetly looking back at your boss before he closes the door sharply.

“Oh sweet burn!” Scott cheers loudly holding his hand up for Lara to high five, but she ignores its and walks off with you back for he counter.

“Let me know how it goes tonight ok?” Lara tells you standing close she smiles and adds “Have some damn fun, but if you have any problems call me ok?”

“I will, I promise.” You tell Lara with a firm nod.

Standing in front of your bedroom mirror you actually felt good, the nerves in your stomach were annoying but your hair looked good curled that way you liked and your outfit was just the right amount of cool and practical to suit your style.

Black mini skirt with a loose fitted green and white striped tee shirt, that you had tucked into your skirt completing the look, with your favourite heeled ankle boots for some much needed height.

Now the only problem between leaving here and meeting Rob outside was Adrian, who was in the apartment and you hadn’t spoken to him since the flower situation yesterday.

Seeing a message from Rob telling you he was about ten minutes away, you order yourself to get a grip and opening the bedroom door walk out with purpose, hoping that Adrian wouldn’t notice you, the idea was a disaster in itself.

Catching movement from the corner of his eye Adrian was mid-drink when he spots you, and he cannot help but choke on his energy drink at the sight of his roommate, you looked so fucking hot.

Adrian couldn’t help but notice how your legs looked in those boots, or how soft your thighs were snuggled against that skirt, and don’t get him started on that tee shirt and how it…

“Wow! Where are you off to?” Adrian stops his thoughts before his sweatpants started to get too tight for him, asking you instead seemed the better option.

“I have a date.” You mumble with a shy smile but Adrian’s face kind of freezes after he hears this.

You notice the way Adrian’s hands ball into fists, as he places them either side of him on the couch looking like he was trying to make himself smile, but he just looked in a lot of pain instead.

“Have fun then!” Adrian eventually tells you in a resigned voice, looking for a moment like he wanted to punch something, but he drops his right hand back down to his side instead.

“Cheers I-“

“You look really hot.” Adrian tells you with a cheeky smile suddenly appearing on his face as he adds “I hope your date tells you that otherwise I will be after them.”

“Thanks Adrian, wish me luck!” You nod grabbing you keys from beside the coffee filters on the counter, then walking as quickly as you can you rush out of the apartment.

“Well that sucked.” Adrian curses with a groan wishing that he hadn’t seen you in that outfit, or even better yet he was going out with you instead but that would never happen anytime soon.

“It’s times like this I kind of miss the arguing between us.” Adrian tells himself with a shake of his head, realising that you two were bickering a lot less these days, but none of that mattered right now.

“How the fuck am I supposed to work now?!” Adrian yells then stops because he was clearly shouting at himself, which wouldn’t change things you had left him here, and he knew tonight would suck big time for him so he needed some good kills and a lot of them.

The party was forty five minutes away on the outskirts of Evergreen and you were currently in the slowest cab in town, listening to Rob who was still talking about himself, thirteen minutes into the journey already.

Rob was tall with short black hair, black thick glasses and a uniform of black jeans and tee shirt plus he seemed to love the sound of his own voice, so far so good it seemed.

“So, what do you do?“ Rob asks your thighs not even looking you in the face, as you try not to glare back at him, no point because he wouldn’t even notice anyway.

“I work at Karma coffee-“ You start to explain but are shocked to get cut off moments later.

“Oh, my friend owns his own coffee place nearby not in Evergreen of course but he hopes to move to Gotham soon and open another chain.” Rob states over your which annoys the hell out of you of course, because Adrian wouldn’t do that he would actually listen to you, wait why were you comparing this dude to your roommate?

Shaking your head at yourself and Rob doesn’t even notice as the cab eventually stops as you wonder what the hell had Lara done, how had she thought this guy was nice a brief image of Adrian reappears in your head causing you to groan in response.

“Does someone want a beer already? Because that’s what this guy needs let’s go have some fun!” Rob winks at he pays the driver then exiting the cab he holds out his hand for you and you accept telling yourself that this will be all fine.

It wasn’t fine, not by a long shot as you can already count all the red flags this guy has waved at you on one hand and that was already too many.

The place you was currently stuck in was five floors up a tall block of apartments, and it was way too small for a party this size, plus both the music and people were very annoying.

It wasn’t as if you were looking for negatives here either holding beer number three in your hand, a little light headed because you hadn’t eaten earlier, but you knew how to look after yourself…sort of.

But tonight you just wanted to say fuck it, drink and just get through this perhaps end up back at Rob’s place because why the hell not, it was your choice.

Sure you weren’t exactly attracted to Rob but drinking alcohol was currently making you horny, and there wasn’t anyone else who could help with that, you needed a quick rebound and here one was on a silver hipster platter.

This party was both too cool and too lame for your liking the terrible indie dance music, and so many people vaping like their life depended on it breathing out strawberry flavoured smoke in your face, like they were trying to be a fucking dragon.

Glancing at your phone an hour or so later you still hadn’t got a reply from Lara, after sending her a message complete with autocorrect mistakes about how shit this party was, it was all her fault.

“I think we should take this to the bedroom don’t you?” Rob asks you making you look back at him stuck on an uncomfortable couch, with two other people who had making out heavily.

“Sure.” You decide flippantly because hooking up with Rob had to be better, than listening to him and his friends talk about themselves.

This was how you were now sat on the floor on your knees, trying to ignore Rob because obviously he liked to talk during sex too, lucky you.

With his cock in your mouth you try to get into the moment and the act itself, but his voice is really grating on you as one last lick with your tongue later, has him coming loudly making you hoped no one heard him over the music.

“Now it’s your turn.” Rob declares pulling you up hurriedly, with the hand you had just wiped your mouth with, but he doesn’t seem to care.

Rob kisses you using mainly his teeth as they knock together and you worry that he will bite your tongue or something, but you try and control the kiss which he lets you but only for a few moments, it seemed he liked to be in control.

Rob yanks up your top to reveal bare skin and one of your nice bras which you know will be going to waste here, as he doesn’t even touch you he just pulls and shoves the clothes your wearing up and out of his way, his face literally inches away from your underwear he quickly licks you through the cotton fabric so gently it’s as if you imagined it.

This is followed by mores soft kitten licks which felt like nothing, making you look down to see Rob’s pained face like he wasn’t having any fun down there, so you just shove him away.

“Let’s fuck!” You declare just wanting to get this over and done with, because you would have to have a date later with your vibrator, because this guy had no fucking clue.

Rob watches you as you touch yourself through your underwear, just to feel something because you knew you were about to have bad sex, all you had to do was fake it and apologise to all of women kind later.

Pulling on a condom Rob shoves down his jeans then awkwardly crawls towards you on the bed looking so stupid, you have to catch yourself from laughing but with a quick side swipe of your underwear, the guy lines himself up and quickly enters you.

Rob is so out of sync as he pumps into you and all you can think about is this ending soon, and you could then finally leave the party, but first you needed another drink for the road, then try and call Lara again and threaten murder.

“Is that good?” Rob groans looking down as he has noticed you were barely moving, but just laying there underneath him which makes you nod back quickly and lick your bottom lip, because it was time to put on a performance

“Oh god, yeah!” You lie moving against him and gasping in supposed ecstasy which was obviously very over played, but the guy on top of you doesn’t even notice, or care which annoys you not for the first time.

With his own end in sight Rob races off ahead of you as his thrusts become weak, and with one final whine escaping his lips he comes as you just lay there watching him, completely bored.

“Oh wow that was so good!” Rob declares once he had got his breath back, and you look up at him with wide eyes, as he starts to zip up his jeans waiting for you to say something.

“Sure, so much fun!” You reply visibly cringing all the while but Rob of course doesn’t notice, the guy was so caught up in himself it was ridiculous.

“I’m off.” Rob states and you nod not really listening as you get dressed feeling a little empty from what had just happened, thinking not for the first time this evening of you’re roommate, but once again you tell yourself off.

Expecting Rob to be outside the bedroom you are surprised not to see him, then after one walk around the apartment you cannot find him anywhere, signalling that the asshole has left you here alone.

That empty feeling you had felt earlier was now replaced with anger, because tonight had sucked truly, you had held out a tiny bit of hope but like always your choices just lead you to more trouble.

Leaving the party you head to the nearest elevator then when one appears on your floor you head back down to reality, you had been left by that idiot Rob and all you wanted to do right now was go home.

Outside the apartment block you check your phone, and are very surprised to see it is after two in the morning, how the hell did that happen?

Still no messages from Lara you try to call her three times in a row but every single one eventually sends you to voicemail, plus there were no cabs nearby on the Uber app so you were stuck here alone unless…

Thinking that you were the last person he wanted to speak to after seeing his face when you left the apartment, you quickly call the only other person who you knew could help you right now.
