Series: Uttermost Lifestyle

Paring: Johnny Knoxville x Original female character

Word Count: 1.3k

Warnings: none

| MASTERLIST |

When we got to Japan it was pretty late so I was ready to get some rest but the guys had different plans. I stare into the pitch darkness of my room with a pissed off expression slapped across my face. I didn't want to go tell them to try to be quiet because then I know for sure they wouldn't leave me alone.

I knew I wouldn't be able to fall asleep so I go see what was going on. "Alex, come do this with us." Ehren motions me to come over and I see they had a muscle stimulators machine. (A/N: let's pretend it took place in Japan)

"Why not." I take a seat on the couch with them.

"This is the muscle stimulator." Johnny says with the patches on his face then they turn it on. Johnny whines then takes them off, "On, it hurts my teeth!" He says making me laugh. "Whose next?" He looks at us.

"I'll go. Put it on my hands." Dave puts his hands out do I stick the pads in his hands.

Johnny controls the power and when he turns it on Dave jumps around as his hands close themselves. Finally Dave gets them off as we keep laughing.

"Alex, your next honey." Johnny holds the pads. "Where we putting them?" He asks and I shrug.

"Put them here." Chris motions to his body so I pull the front of my shorts down so they could put it on my lower abdomen.

"Okay, here we go." Johnny turns it on and it didn't hurt making me laugh and confusing the guys.

"Turn it up higher." Dave says so Johnny does but nothing except a few facial expressions.

"What the fuck?" Johnny asks.

"Maybe because I'm used to cramps and I gave birth..." I say so he pulls them off then quickly stocked it to my neck making me yell.

"AHH, FUCK! OKAY!" I go for my neck pulling the shit off. "You got your fucking reaction." I punch the shit out of Johnny.

"I'm sorry." He kisses the side of my head but is give him away as it was Ehren's turn.

After his turn someone had to volunteer to do the gooch and none of the guys really wanted to do it so Dave decided to fill in the spot.

"So during this movie is when Alex will see everyone's dicks." Chris laughs.

"I'm already close with everyone so now we'll just get closer. 2/9 so seven more to go about to be six." I laugh as Dave gets undressed.

Dave takes a few screams before finally pulling it off completely down with it. Johnny ends up sticking the part that was in Dave onto Ehren's face before Chris says let's do his balls.

Chris's yelling and pain was the most funniest to watch that I ended up getting tears in my eyes.

"You're laughing a little bit to hard ma'am." Chris picked up the pads coming towards me.

"Chris! No! That was on your nuts!" I scream crawling over Johnny and Ehren to get away from him.

"I got her!" Johnny grabs my legs while Ehren holds my arms.

"Stop! Please." I scream while the all guys in the room laugh. "Chris, I thought I was your friend?!" I turn my head to the side as he brings the pads towards my face. I use everything in me and kick Johnny in the balls making him let go of me, so I can use my legs to flip myself back getting out of Ehren's grip. "Fuck you." I back away as he gives up.

As I go back to my room and Ryan and Bam just let themselves in, "I kinda just wanted to be alone... I'm MY room." I groan as they sit on either side of me as I laid on the bed.

"I don't think you're going to get any alone time at all while we film for this movie." Ryan laughs pulling me up so he could put an arm around my shoulder.

"Well I was for a second before you two decided waltz into my room." I give them both a look.

"Aww mama's pouting." Bam pinches my cheeks.

"You've got to stop calling me mama, Bam." I back hand his chest.

"I can't like older women, who happens to be a mom. So the nickname works out perfectly?" He pats my thigh.

"Okay but the name makes it seem like there's more than a five year age difference."

"I'm not gonna stop mama." He gives me a quick kiss then runs off so I look at Ryan. "Plus you look younger than me so no one would know." Bam pops his head back in then leaves again.

"Please don't do what he just did." I sigh making Ryan laugh.

"I won't kiss you unless you want me to. Plus I know you like Johnny." He chuckles making me shake my head no. "I'm not that dumb, Alex. You both like each other it's obvious. The way you look at each other. He cares WAY too much about you more than a friend would, Chris..." He gives me a smile.

"So you're not as dumb as you look." I say making him chuckle pulling me closer to his side.

"Have you told him? Or do you two know?"

"We agreed not to. He respects what I want. I need to focus on Caiden and I. Plus he kinda messed it up getting with other girls after we got together. Pretending it never happened." I explain to him as I rest my head on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry, Alex. Boys, guys, men, well we aren't the smartest." He says making me giggle agreeing. "He still likes you, Alex and you still like him."

"I know but I can't. Plus I don't wanna get hurt. I hate dating."

"I feel you, honey but I think Johnny is the best out of all of us. I see how much he cares about you and if you two never work... You will have a friend for life." He kisses the top of my head. "I'll leave you now so you can be alone like you wanted." He gets up walking out of the room.

"Ryan." I get up going over to him. "Thank you for the little talk." I give him a smile before kissing his cheek.

"Love you, Ri." He smiles walking away so I lay back down but I wasn't alone for a while.

"You didn't even apologize for kicking me in the nuts." Johnny sits down laying his head on my stomach.

"I'm terribly sorry that I'm not apologizing for kicking you in the balls." I look down at him.

"What was all that with Ryan?" He scans my face.

"Just talking." I sigh.

"And a kiss on the cheek with a love you." He sits up turning to look at me.

"Are you the only one allowed to have a meaningful conversation?" I prop myself up with my elbows.

"No but I don't remember getting a kiss on the cheek and me saying love you." He crosses his arms.

"I have kissed you on the cheek so the last one is on you. But really we were having a nice conversation to help me out with something."

"I thought I was that someone?" I close my eyes throwing back my head sighing at his words.

"Johnny, I can have more someone's. But you'll always be my number one someone about most things... just not this one okay." I sit up giving him a smile.

"Long as I'm your number one." He smiles making me smile more.

"Now, I wanna get some sleep so please leave now." I wave him off so he chuckles more.

"I'm out. Good night Allie." He walks towards my door.

"Night PJ." I get under my cover.

LINKIN PARK SOLDIERS FOR CEASEFIRE

“Turn my mic up louder, I got to say something” - Linkin Park - Hands Held High

As the band remains silent on the ongoing violence happening in Gaza and parts of the West Bank, we, the fans of Linkin Park, will not stand in silence as Palestinians face what humanitarian organizations such as the UN have categorized as genocide.

Hospitals, schools, mosques, churches, bakeries, fishing boats, solar panels, and water tanks have all been targets of bombing by the IDF, funded in large part by American tax dollars. Over 15,000 people have been killed, 6000+ of which are children. Electricity and water supplies have been cut off, affecting millions.

We urge members of the band to use their platform and speak up, to not be silent on their tax dollars being used to fund these atrocities. We call for an immediate ceasefire and a safe exchange of hostages. We call for an end to the siege on Gaza, the theft of homes and land, and the systemic oppression of Palestinians. Enough is enough.

Who cares if one more light goes out? Well, we do.

[playgirlpontius]

furry au stuff for the crew yippee wahoo, defo not the entire crew but most of em that I know of!

Jeff: grey wolf!!!! I think I’ve talked about him, Dimitry, and Rachel being funny wolf pictures before but yeah the 3 of them r all grey wolves xD early JA days he definitely gives off the vibe of chill wolf boye. He likes to bite PJ sometimes, as wolves bite as a form of affection, and PJ’s herbivore ass is like WHAT THE FUCK LMAO…Jeff’s definitely gotten headbutted multiple times bc of it 😭 ALSO….imagine wolf Jeff with a mullet... That is all <3

Spike: defo a weasel. He gives off this sneaky slinky-like creature vibe. Not too much for him to be a cat but not like a ferret and I think a weasel is super fitting for him. Weasels are super sneaky and like ferrets look super cute but are actually really fierce. I mostly got this from that fight him and Jeff had in 4.5 where Jeff was like no he’s sneaky about it and Spike jus fuckin goes at him 😭. Him and Dave r mustelidae buddies <333

Dimitry: grey wolf as well!!! Wolves r very social animals so defo him and Jeff r wolf buddies ^_^!! The two definitely just randomly punch or bite each other as a form of affection they’re like brothers who fight all the time tbh LMAOOO

Manny: a lion obvi!! He’s definitely a predator considering he’s a predator expert, and his long hair is like THE perfect lion design… Also! In WBZ he touched a lion’s tail, and I think that’s cool as fuck! Also it would make sense w/ how manny doesn’t mix well with colder temperatures and why prev to WBZ he hasn’t seen a lot of predators that live in colder habitats and such. He’s part of the kitty squad with Chris, Lance, Trip, and Ehren! ^_^

Kosick: skunk LOL…entirely based off how angry he was after he was forced to smell PJ being covered in skunk spray in the car xD…

Cliver: this was a tough decision but he gives off this like… red fox vibe >_<!! Red foxes are really good at hearing so defo he’s super alert when on set and if someone’s trying to prank him. He part of the fox squad with wee man ^_^

Lance: cat!! Idk he gives off kitty vibes ^_^!! He and Spike share similar mischievous vibes only Lance is less sneaky so I thought he’d fit as a cat. Also he has pretty silver hair, so yeah! And stylistically, I like the idea of that helmet he wears in 3D having cat ears on it :3

Trip: defo a tiger! Idk why, he jus gives me those vibes ^_^ big cat vibes like how Manny nd Chris do. Apparently, tigers have been known to imitate the call of other animals to lure them closer, so sometimes he’s known 2 make some weird noises jus to get a laugh outta people XD

Gooch: sea otter! He likes surfing n stuff so I thought it’d fit him pretty well :3!! Him and Jasper r sea otter buddies!!!

Loomis: he's not officially part of the crew, BUT I wanted to include himb. <3 I think that he'd be a possum! This is mostly based on the concept of a ferret with bright green hair, I think design-wise he’d look cool as hell! Possums are also clean creatures, they don’t get rabies unlike a lot of other animals, so surprisingly they’d find that Loomis is super clean compared to everyone else xD

Texas denies trans people the ability to change the sex on their birth certificates

Texas has eliminated the ability for transgender people to alter the sex marker on their birth certificates. The new policy change, which was made with no forewarning or announcement, will put trans people at risk of discrimination. Previously, trans people could change the sex marker on their birth certificates by presenting proof of gender-affirming surgery, a court order signifying that they had “fully transitioned” and supporting statements from medical professionals. These are no longer sufficient, a spokesperson for the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) told The Texas Newsroom. Now, birth certificates can only be changed for children due to a hospital error or omission. Related Detransitioned man stuck in “limbo” because Texas forbids driver’s license gender changes Right-wing Attorney General Ken Paxton ordered the man’s personal info to be added to a list of transgender Texans that he’s compiling. Additionally, the DSHS website previously listed directions on how to change one’s assigned sex at birth on their birth certificate — the directions have since been removed. “Recent public reports have highlighted concerns about the validity of court orders purporting to amend sex for purposes of state-issued documents. DSHS is seeking assistance from the Office of Attorney General to determine the applicability of these concerns to amendments to vital records,” said DSHS spokesperson Chris Van Deusen. Van Deusen was likely referencing state Attorney General Ken Paxton’s continued efforts to oppose the legal recognition of trans people in Texas. Stay connected to your community Connect with the issues and events that impact your community at home and beyond by subscribing to our newsletter. Subscribe to our Newsletter today Last week, Paxton blocked trans people from being able to change the sex marker on their driver’s license. This is part of his sweeping policy to oppose gender-affirming care for trans people, particularly trans minors, who have reported mental and emotional distress over laws targeting their educational and healthcare rights. Paxton’s crusade is also part of an onslaught of policies across the country to deny any legal recognition of trans people. Five other states are enacting policies restricting birth certificates, according to the Movement Advancement Project. The Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT) wrote of the new policy changes on Instagram, stating, “We are committed to keeping the community safe and will do all we can to assure trans Texans can get the most accurate information as possible through these rolling changes.” “Trans people have and always will exist. We will continue the legacy of our trans ancestors by fighting back, creating spaces for joy, and living our lives to the best of our abilities. Our transness is not determined by a piece of paper and cannot be taken away by hateful policies. We will overcome transphobic bigotry,” TENT’s post added. View this post on Instagram A post shared by TENT (@transtexas) “Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has bullied state agencies into denying the specific types of updates that transgender Texans need,” wrote Johnathon Gooch, communications director for Equality Texas. “Ironically, that means the state’s top legal officer has instructed state agencies to deny court orders from state judges. So, what should be a simple administrative task has now become a nightmare.” Because birth certificates are used to help correct the gender markers on trans people’s driver’s licenses and other government-issued identity documents, if these commonly used documents don’t match their gender identity, it effectively outs a person as trans. This outing can lead to difficulty accessing various services as well as harassment and violence. http://dlvr.it/TCnF4f

Comics at machine HQ

According to the machine HQ blog schedule, it’s almost time for a new list of comics and/or graphic novels that arg’s been reading lately… and so here it is – a new Comics at machine HQ post! In between the last such post and this one, arg has been quite active: he composed new music, posted on Instagram and compiled several monthly playlists.

And comics! arg also read a lot of comics – he read fiction too, but that’s a post for another week! – and here are some that he, like, really enjoyed…

Funnybooks! We got funnybooks! Here are the comics/graphic novels arg has read and enjoyed in the last few months. All titles are arranged alphabetically, and related titles – or titles from related genres – are listed in the Also recommended sections. Keep in mind that a few of these titles are suitable for mature readers only.

“During a golden moment in the early 1950s the stars aligned, and EC Comics lovingly adapted 25 classic Ray Bradbury stories into comics form. Al Feldstein scripted, and all of EC's top artists brilliantly illuminated Ray’s tales: Johnny Craig, Reed Crandall, Jack Davis, Will Elder, George Evans, Frank Frazetta, Graham Ingels, Jack Kamen, Roy Krenkel, Bernard Krigstein, Joe Orlando, John Severin, Angelo Torres, Al Williamson, and Wallace Wood. This special collection features all 25 official adaptations plus an additional ten related stories, with stunning art...”

Also recommended: Death Strikes: The Emperor Of Atlantis, The Bitter End And Other Stories and Dark Ride.

“More than a decade after a disastrous explosion, young Hailey is dropped off by her mum at a holiday camp in a dilapidated shopping mall. Alienated from the other kids, she connects with an eerie older teen named Jen… but soon dark horrors awaken, and the two new friends are caught up in a cataclysmic battle between two terrifying creatures who have been lying dormant all this time.

One of Australia’s most acclaimed young graphic novelists, Chris Gooch expertly crafts a taut and intimate thriller about mothers and daughters, the monstrous and the mundane, and the power of friendship in the midst of catastrophe.”

Also recommended: Complete Ballad of Halo Jones, Alien: Thaw, Indigo Children and Kaya.

“Deep within the walls of Castle Dunsinane, a seed of madness begins to bloom. Spurred on by the prophecies of witches and the whispers of his scheming wife, Lord Macbeth plots the death of his friend, King Duncan. This one cruel act soon spirals out of control, and murder after murder erupt into a wave of chaos and violence that threatens to consume all of Scotland.”

Also recommended: Creepshow, Shock Shop, and Shook! A Black Horror Anthology.

“When the sun goes down, our minds invent all manner of horrors that may lurk in the darkness. Danish cult illustrator John Kenn Mortensen draws inspiration from this shadowy realm, and his pen skillfully conjures these eerie visions on paper.

Open this book (if you dare) to encounter a frightful horde of sepia-toned spooks — witches, wraiths, goblins, giant spiders, wild boars, evil clowns — and countless other unspeakable creatures. Hairy, hooded, or horned, they peer at you ominously through dead eyes, their fangs bared.” Highly recommended!

[Y’all know who the “horde of sepia-toned spooks” above reminds arg of? Of course – his Copiers of Hindustan buddies from Mastodon! And don’t worry, they’ll probably take this comparison as a compliment!]

“In a climate crisis-ravaged future metropolis, a grumpy, smoke-belching, cigar-chomping, hotrod-racing robot is a twelve-year-old girl's only hope. Together, can they outrace the chasing Robo-Cops with an invention that might just save humanity?”

Also recommended: Sap Hunters, Under-Earth and The Colonized.

“Tom Gauld returns with his wittiest and most trenchant collection of literary cartoons to date. Perfectly composed drawings are punctuated with the artist’s signature brand of humour, hitting high and low. After all, Gauld is just as comfortable taking jabs at Jane Eyre and Game of Thrones.” An absolute favourite, this one!

Also recommended: The Site, Flung Out Of Space, Lomax - Collectors of Folk Songs, Whistleblowers..., Yazidi and The Dyatlov Pass Mystery.

The dynamic crime-writing/drawing duo is back! “A boarding house full of druggies. A neglected housewife. A young girl who thinks she's a superhero. A cop who wants to be left alone. And a private detective looking for a runaway girl. These stories collide one fateful summer in Where The Body Was, a tale of love and murder in the suburbs, told from a dozen different points of view. All the neighbours on the block have an opinion about the murder and how it happened, but which of them is telling the truth?”

Also recommended: The Reaper And Other Stories, Oswald's Body and Slash Them All.

…and now, here’s machine HQ’s Retro Pick for this post, a freaky little book straight from 1990:

“What happens when a scientist discovers a way to make cloning easy?; Nothing good as the inventor discovers when his invention is used on him! His quest to stop the conspiracy-minded thieves and retrieve his invention makes this one of the wildest suspense tales yet!”
