I wanna edge Jayce until he cries.. I'm so sad I can't ever do it 😔

Well, you can’t do it, but you can read about it. Right here. Enjoy ;]

NSFW under the cut. MDNI

The ability to predict where the crescendo of his pleasure turns into the apex is a skill hard-earned, but indispensable.

It’s been useful many a night before, when Jayce trembled in your arms just like he does now, and pleaded for release the way you expect he will soon. He arches into your giving hand, tucking his chin against his chest, jaw clenched bear-trap-tight while he fights and fights and fights to be good. It comes intrinsically to Jayce, to submit and comply and deliver. Even when he wrestles with the most daunting force of all — himself — he fights to come out victorious, just for you.

Not to say he always does — earlier on, back when you were not quite so tactful about reading and handling him, back when he had to hiss out a pained s-stop to help you pace the denial right, he’d spilled too fast many times. He’d dug his face into your warmth and pleaded, sometimes for forgiveness, or sometimes for a slowing of your hand on his raw cock, and he’d sobbed.

He does now it now, too.

Dark lashes clumpy and dark and long as though clad in mascara, fiery amber turned watery, hot, fat tears down the hollow of his pretty cheeks.

Jayce hiccups with his next sob.

You cradle his head closer, you whisper something small and comforting. His cock twitches in your still hand something fierce, weeps like the rest of him does.

“Steady, Jayce,” you tell him, “breathe.”

“S-sorry,” he warbles. “Th… hah. That w-was close.”

“It’s alright,” you assure when he twitches again under the slightest movement of your hand, so much so his entire body flinches with it, curls in on himself like the pleasure he so deeply wants is hurting him. But you hold him steady, hold him safe, just the way he likes it: laying back in your bed so he can do nothing but receive, while you’re cozied up against his side, one hand at his nape, the other between his spread legs. “If you want to, you can. You’ve earned it, sweet boy.”

And what you expect to be a nod, a meek little please, turns into an equally meek, but surprisingly decisive: “No…”

It’s not rare, but it’s also not common, for him to be taking the pace of his pleasure in his own hands. It’s usually up to you — and it’s a pleasant surprise when it isn’t.

“I c-can… one more,” he breathes. You kiss his sweaty forehead, about to remind him he’s already done six, he doesn’t need to deny himself a seventh time, but, “I want one more.”

You know he can. Jayce can do many things. But you can’t deny him when he wants.

“You’re sure?” You ask, rubbing the pad of your thumb over the leaky slit, the ruddy, sensitive little tip of him — god, all of him is so sensitive when you deny him. He writhes with it, hand shooting down to grab your wrist and still you.

“Mmhmm.” It’s so close to a sob it’s the loveliest hum you’ve ever heard. Wet, small, broken and yet — so eager. So certain.

“Okay.” You dip your entire soul into the big wet dark amber of his wide, loving eyes, before you lean in to kiss his tear damp cheek. It’s salty under your lips. His eyes fall shut when you do, soothing balm on an open wound, he presses into the kiss like a cat into a loving hand. “Then I’ll give you a moment before we go again.”

Jayce whimpers with the heartbreaking tone of a puppy when you abandon his desperate dick in favor of twirling your fingertips through the fuzz of his stomach. It’s somewhere safe but interesting for your hand to linger while his pleasure fizzles back down to something containable.

You talk to him the same way you’d talk to a scared little animal. When he’s brainless like this, it’s not so much what you say, it’s how you say it — the hushed, warm tone of your voice, whispered close and comforting in the vicinity of his ear.

“So good,” you praise. “So patient. Letting me spoil you for so long today, Jayce.” You draw a heart shape with your fingertip into the pudge of his tummy. He grins all dopey and high about it.

It’s scientific just as much as it is intuitive, to figure out when he’s ready. You measure it by the pace of his breath, the amount his cock drips, how tight he clenches his fists. Jayce settles just as fast as he crescendos.

It’s not long before you’re trailing down the body hair below his belly button, and catching his gaze to check, to know for sure —

“Ready,” he rasps. You already knew it.

Incomplete Fiber Art

I tug at ends of yarn

watching you unravel in

all your secret thoughts and doubts and passion

of every word you wrote me – pilling into clumps

sat atop you to make a gorgeous textured thread

i cannot wait to detangle – watch as the

tight outer parts unfurl to reveal a saggy tired center

of cold noodles

that hold no distinct shape

as it slithers and writhes and I consume it and you gag

drooping and whining,

scraping against the metal of my hook – cold from disuse

I work on this new project and let you nestle up inside me and inside

your brand new form.

the friction of my hook snags on your frayed edges

as I work, warming up my heart chambers

sparsely decorated – you notice as you wander around inside me

in this incomplete form i've now created for you

yarn ends trailing behind

still tangled and clumpy but at least you can walk around in

this exhibit I designed – hopefully

It distracts and entertains as you

locate my tapestry and

with your unfinished claws and loose jaw

rip apart my delicately placed seams.

you're not sure how to properly unravel me

in the same way I unraveled you

but you take the shreds of the form I wove inside myself

and construct yourself a nest upon which you can

rest inside,

your lumpy shape reveling in the warmth of my remains.

maybe when i fix the mess you made of me

I'll be able to finish you and sew all your parts together

to make you whole

and maybe then you will be free of me

crawl back up my esophagus and catch at my heart — escape me

so that I can repair my chambers and clean up

the yarn fuzz you shed and left behind.

you’re a work of art

in all your unpredictability and pain

my incomplete fiber project.

From the pristine dark of his backyard in rural Alberta, Canada, Alan Dyer has taken stunning photos of a rare sky glow called STEVE. To capture this ribbon of mauve, he and other citizen scientists typically let their cameras collect light for seconds at a time. Long exposures smear out STEVE’s finer details in favor of making its color pop. But when a STEVE stretched over his house one August night in 2022, Dyer tried a different approach. He zoomed in on the sky glow with his camera and took a video of STEVE’s nitty-gritty details at a rate of 24 snapshots per second. Instead of the largely smooth drift of purple seen in past images, Dyer’s footage exposed STEVE as a frenetically flickering torrent of purplish-white fuzz. “It didn’t look that beautiful,” Dyer says, but on the off chance it might be scientifically useful, he sent the video to Toshi Nishimura, a space physicist at Boston University.  “I said, ‘Oh my God, no one has ever seen this before,’” says Nishimura, who was eager to analyze such a high-resolution view of STEVE. But upon inspection, STEVE’s fine details didn’t jibe with scientists’ tentative understanding of the atmospheric chemistry behind the airglow. “This fine-scale structure gave us a huge headache, actually,” Nishimura says. That confusion is par for the course when it comes to the science of STEVE — short for Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement. Ever since citizen scientists first showed researchers their images of STEVE a few years ago, they’ve raised more questions than they answered. “Every time we find something new [about STEVE], the number of physics questions that it opens up is triple what we expected,” says Bea Gallardo-Lacourt, a space physicist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. At a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, on December 14, Nishimura’s team presented the new high-res view of STEVE. Other researchers described similarly perplexing observations that another non-aurora sky glow can morph into STEVE. But there was a glimmer of clarity too: a computer model shared by still other sky detectives may explain what causes the “picket fence” of green stripes that sometimes appears below STEVE. “STEVE and the picket fence are arguably the biggest mystery in space physics right now,” says space physicist Claire Gasque of the University of California, Berkeley. And because satellite signals can be affected by the conditions in Earth’s atmosphere where STEVE appears, explaining this airglow could have uses beyond understanding a pretty light show.   STEVE’s mysteries are multiplying When aurora chasers in Canada first introduced STEVE to the scientific community in 2016, researchers knew it was no aurora (SN: 3/15/18). Auroras form when charged particles from the magnetic bubble, or magnetosphere, around Earth rain down into the atmosphere (SN: 2/7/20). Those particles crash into oxygen and nitrogen near Earth’s poles, painting the sky with brushes of red, green and blue. But STEVE was purple. And it appeared closer to the equator than the northern and southern lights do. “For us here in southern western Canada,” Dyer says, “the aurora is typically to the north.” STEVE, meanwhile, can come right overhead. STEVE was later linked to a river of charged particles surging through the atmosphere (SN: 4/30/19). That plasma stream, moving at several kilometers per second, is thought to energize the air around 200 kilometers off the ground to the point of glowing purple — but what molecules give STEVE its signature color remain unclear, especially in light of Dyer’s new footage. Dyer’s video captured details of STEVE down to about 90 meters across — fairly small for an airglow that can span thousands of kilometers. The footage showed a clumpy, speckled stream of purple rushing westward at about 9 kilometers per second, sporting variations in brightness as small as a few kilometers across, some of which popped in and out of view within seconds, Nishimura and colleagues reported in the December JGR Space Physics.  This high-res video of STEVE taken in August 2022 reveals smaller structures in the purple glow than researchers could see before in long-exposure photos. “The leading theory of the STEVE emission is that there’s nitric oxide that is excited by the fast plasma stream,” Nishimura says. That nitric oxide is thought to give off the purple light. But excited nitric oxide can glow for an hour, Nishimura notes. That’s about how long STEVE lasts overall; the granular bursts of brightness that last mere seconds add a wrinkle to that idea. Firing a sensor-strapped rocket through STEVE could identify the molecules responsible, Nishimura says. “But the challenge is that we need to know when and where STEVE is going to happen, and that’s extremely difficult.” STEVE can appear just after the peaks of substorms, which are disturbances in the magnetosphere that can stir up spectacular auroras. “STEVE generally appears after the main aurora show has kind of faded,” Dyer says. But not every substorm comes with a STEVE encore, and research presented by Gallardo-Lacourt and her colleagues at AGU suggests not all STEVEs need a substorm to appear. One thing that might help researchers refine their STEVE predictions, Nishimura says, is better understanding the light show’s relationship to another non-auroral airglow called a stable auroral red (SAR) arc — which citizen science photos now suggest can morph into STEVE. How STEVE and SAR arcs interact In March 2015, citizen scientist Ian Griffin set out to photograph a particularly dazzling auroral display near Dunedin, New Zealand. But just north of the southern lights, he spotted something strange — a wide, red sky glow that morphed into the mauve strand of STEVE. Griffin’s footage offered researchers their first glimpse of a STEVE blooming out of a SAR arc. Space physicist Carlos Martinis of Boston University and colleagues reported it in June 2022 in Geophysical Research Letters. Scientists have studied SAR arcs for decades. Like STEVE, these airglows stretch east-to-west across the sky closer to the equator than the northern and southern lights. But unlike STEVE’s roughly hour-long set, SAR arcs can stain the sky for hours to days at a time — visible with cameras, though usually too dim to see with the naked eye. SAR arcs form when disturbances in Earth’s magnetosphere cause charged particles thousands of kilometers out in space to collide, creating heat that seeps down into the ionosphere — the layer of the atmosphere home to STEVE. That heat energizes electrons to excite oxygen atoms to shed red light that’s normally about one-tenth as bright as auroras. But the SAR arc that Griffin saw was radiant enough to rival red southern lights. In March 2015, citizen scientist Ian Griffin captured this footage of a red SAR arc mutating into a purple STEVE streak. “It was just stunning,” says Megan Gillies, who studies auroras at the University of Calgary in Canada. Griffin’s footage inspired her to search for other cases of STEVE emerging from SAR arcs. Her team found one spotted by the Transition Region Explorer, or TREx, Spectrograph at Lucky Lake, Saskatchewan in April 2022. The group reported it in Geophysical Research Letters in March. STEVE’s bright purple streak emerged from a SAR arc’s red glow, hung around for about half an hour, then gave way to more red. “It’s like watching a fire smoldering, and then you throw more wood on it and then it blazes up … Whoosh, there it goes! And then it kind of dies back down,” says Gillies, whose group described the SAR arc–STEVE connection at the AGU meeting. “There’s something that happens that triggers a STEVE,” she says, but because not all SAR arcs mutate into STEVEs, it’s not clear what causes this transition. It might have something to do with the plasma torrent that powers STEVE. SAR arcs have similarly been linked to westward plasma flows in the atmosphere — though not as fast as the plasma flows that power STEVEs, Martinis notes. As the SAR arc seen in 2015 evolved into STEVE, satellite data did show a wide stream of plasma in the atmosphere narrow and quicken into the kind of intense filament typical of STEVE. But what triggered this switch remains an open question, Martinis says. Further complicating matters: citizen scientists have also spotted STEVEs and SAR arcs existing alongside but seemingly independent of each other. With researchers left scratching their heads over these observations, “this is where modeling comes in,” Gillies says. Theorists can use computers to test whether the physics they think is happening produces light patterns resembling STEVE, she explains. Computer models are already helping piece together another STEVE-related puzzle: the source of the picket fence. The picket fence may be built right in Earth’s backyard At first, researchers thought STEVE’s sometimes sidekick of green stripes was a plain old aurora. After all, the picket fence’s bright green glow is a similar hue as some normal northern lights. But the specific wavelengths of light emanating from the picket fence hint that it might not be an aurora, after all (SN: 11/12/20). The picket fence is a row of green stripes that sometimes appears below the purple streak of STEVE. “That can be even more brief than STEVE itself,” astrophotographer Alan Dyer says of the picket fence. “STEVE might be there for half an hour, and the picket fence green fingers might be only there for a few minutes.”ROCKY RAYBELL Showers of charged particles from way out in the magnetosphere light up normal auroras. “When they collide with the atmosphere, they’re going to create a pretty wide spectrum of colors,” Gasque says. That includes green from oxygen and red and blue from nitrogen. “That blue is kind of the smoking gun that we didn’t see with the picket fence,” Gasque says. Its absence hints that the picket fence’s green spires don’t arise from the same process as auroras. An alternative explanation for the picket fence might be electric fields embedded within Earth’s atmosphere that run parallel to the planet’s magnetic field, Gasque says. Those fields could energize local electrons to excite oxygen into glowing green and coax nitrogen to give off a bit of red but not blue. Gasque and colleagues ran a computer model of Earth’s atmosphere with electrons energized by electric fields. The team compared the light produced inside their simulated atmosphere with light from a picket fence seen by the TREx Spectrograph at Lucky Lake in April 2018. The model did indeed reproduce the ratio of red to green light seen in the real-life picket fence without a tinge of blue — bolstering the idea that atmospheric electric fields could construct the picket fence, the researchers reported November 16 in Geophysical Research Letters and at the AGU meeting. But scientists need to confirm that such electric fields actually exist at the altitudes where picket fences appear.  “The plan now is to try and fly a rocket through one of these structures,” says Gallardo-Lacourt. Gasque and her colleagues have just proposed such a mission to NASA. The rocket wouldn’t fly through the picket fence — which, like STEVE, is too hard to predict. Instead, it would target phenomena with similar coloring that are far more common: enhanced auroras. Normal auroras (left) are gentle ripples of red, green and blue light. Enhanced auroras (right) contain sharp slices of brighter light, which may be produced through a similar process as STEVE’s picket fence. Vincent Ledvina, theauroraguy.com “With enhanced aurorae, you have kind of these sharp, bright layers within the aurora,” Gasque says. The sharpness of those variations in auroral light and their picket fence–like color scheme hints that they might be powered by electric fields as well. If a future rocket mission detects electric fields threaded through enhanced auroras, that would help confirm that similar fields build the picket fence. NASA’s Geospace Dynamics Constellation mission will also launch a fleet of spacecraft as early as 2027 to probe Earth’s magnetosphere and ionosphere — which might yield more data that help explain aspects of STEVE, Gallardo-Lacourt notes. In the meantime, STEVE’s dedicated paparazzi of citizen scientists will continue snapping photos of the phenomenon from the ground. “We’re out specifically looking for STEVE and knowing that there’s scientific interest in it,” Dyer says. “Prior to the era of STEVE … you might have thought, well, there’s nothing amateurs can contribute now to aurora research, it’s all done with rockets and satellites and the like. But nope! There’s a lot we can contribute” — even if those contributions are often new puzzles for scientists to solve.

I mean, the ring design looks sick as all heck, but that faux fur is going to catch all sorts of junk, I doubt its antimicrobial, and it's going to get clumpy after a few months of long haul gaming sessions.

How do you keep it clean? Can you remove the fur as a sort of skin cover to the actual controllers so that you can wash them so you don't get the hardware wet? How's the ventilation on those things? How's that going to fair when your cat just randomly comes up to it and pukes on it like cats always manage to do whenever you got your rare tech out? Some kid is going to get thier cheeto fingers all over one of those and then what? Or gum? Sneezes? Is the fuzz hypoallergenic? How would you store that anyway?

It seems like it would be better to just put a color theme on it that's distinctively recognizable.

Or maybe flocked like my super cool Jazwares 20th Anniversary 10in figure

This would be a neat texture for those controllers...

Thank you 0.8L for giving me this opportunity to try out this pretty mask! Not so long ago I reviewed the Elizavecca LongoLongo Gronique Gold peel off mask! This time it’s the Diamond! Same thick consistency as the gold one so it doesn’t run. No need to worry about it running when you’re watching your show or something (yes, some peel off masks are thin enough for it to actually run). But because it’s so thick, it’s really hard to spread evenly. It gets a little clumpy and scrape-y but it’s definitely not as hard putting on a decent layer. Like all of their other peel off masks, it is a little harder to pull off and it actually hurts but that might be because I have a lot of little tiny fuzz all over my face. It didn’t feel as tight as the gold one (gold one was for tightening so I understand) and a little easier to get off. Still don’t really know what exactly I should see after using it since my face was a little red after taking it off but it calmed down rather quickly after rinsing my face with cool water. I did feel however, that there was less bumpiness after the mask since it probably also removed unwanted clogging of my pores. Will I use it again? I don’t think so since my skin can’t handle frequent peel off masks. But it definitely is a fun mask to try! #cosmetics #Elizavecca #facepack #diamondpack #엘리자베카 #longolongo #longolongodiamondmask #koreanbeauty #recommendedpack #elizaveccamaskpack #08liter #08L https://www.instagram.com/p/ByVetqFHjAT/?igshid=1xfu2nksdq7nm

The Orange Peel Pro claims to peel three to five rounded fruits in one minute.

We put the product to a timed test and compared it to peeling fruit by hand.  

To see what else the machine can do, we try peeling lemons, kiwis, mangoes, avocados, onions, and more.

Visit INSIDER's homepage for more stories.

The following is a transcription of the video:

Medha: Ah, no! Stop, stop, stop, stop!

Jake: This is the Orange Peel Pro electric fruit peeler. It's supposed to make peeling fruit so easy.

Medha: Who needs perfume when you got orange zest on your neck?

Jake: Zest it up!  I'm Jake.

Medha: I'm Medha, and we're testing out inventions to see if they live up to expectations.

Jake: We're here to answer the biggest question.

Medha: It's cool.

Jake: But does it really work? All right, Medha, there is an infomercial about the Orange Peel Pro. I feel like we gotta check it out.

Medha: I'm really excited to watch it. Let's see what it does!

Jake: All right, here we go. OK, oh, my gosh! That's like a dungeon device with all these needles.

Medha: Is that a grapefruit? Whoa!

Jake: Look how fast it goes! Oh my gosh, look at it go! Ooh, it's got like a little hole that it shoots out of. Whoa, that was like... Oh, it's going back! I don't know, does it actually move that fast?

Medha: You know what, it's peeling a kiwi right now, and that'd be super helpful for when I make my fruit salad, so...

Jake: Yeah, kiwis are the worst.

Medha: They're really hard to cut by hand.

Jake: By the time I finish peeling it, like, I'm over it.

Medha: I just have like nothing left of the kiwi. It's just like...

Jake: It's just fuzz?

Medha: It's just fuzz!

Jake: OK, what do you think?

Medha: I mean, it's cool!

Jake: I feel like if I had an orange in my hands, I could peel it more efficiently and faster than that. I think it's just gonna be a sticky, clumpy mess.

Medha: But did you see the video? It did not look sticky. It did not look messy. It looked like it could work.

Jake: I don't buy it.

Medha: So we have the orange peeler right here in front of us, and we're going to test it out with some of the different fruits that are on this table to see if it works. This is the main contraption. Is there anything else in the box?

Jake: What's in the box? There's a lot of buttons on it. This one just says, "Nooo!" It's all the button says.

Medha: Oh, really?

Jake: It literally just says, "No."

Medha: What does that mean?

Jake: It means "No!" Oh.

Medha: What? What?

Jake: Turns out it actually says "on" backwards.

Medha: Oh, my God. Jake: I'm gonna stab it. That's sharp.

Medha: Yeah.

Jake: Will you do us the honor of peeling this orange?

Medha: Yes, I will. Here I go, I'm pressing the "on" button.

Jake: I'm so excited.

Medha: Ready?

Jake: Yeah.

Medha: Drum roll?

Jake: Whoa!

Medha: Oh, my God! It's doing it

Jake: Look at it! It's so fast!

Medha: What?!

Jake: Oh, it's going back. Look at it go! This is amazing! It stopped on its own.

Medha: It just did two layers. That was so fast.

Jake: My mind is blown. Look at this.

Medha: Look at this string of peel!

Jake: Like, lemme just throw out a suggestion. You're a gourmet chef. You've got some fruit here, and you wanna do some nice...

Medha: Zest?

Jake: Presentation. Yeah, this is a zest necklace, a zestlace.

Medha: It is. We can wear it.

Jake: Let's wear it.

Medha: Do you want to?

Jake: Yeah.

Medha: OK.

Jake: Here, I got you. You ready?

Medha: Yes.

Jake: That's beautiful. And it smells so good in here.

Medha: It smells really good. So why don't we try the apple and see how that works? Do you wanna do it together this time?

Jake: Yes, ready?

Medha: Go. That's amazing. Oh, my God, you lucky duck.

Jake: OK. In a true battle of man versus machine, I'm gonna try to do five oranges, 60 seconds. Start the clock. Here we go. Oh, it got in my eye! Oh, it's in my eye. Two and a half in 60 seconds.

Medha: I still got three.

Jake: I had two and a half somewhat recognizable oranges.

Medha: You had two and a half pieces of garbage. That's what you had.

Jake: So we know this thing works on oranges. We know this thing works on apples.

Medha: Yes, it does.

Jake: Now it's time to have a little fun. Oh no! Oh, the humanity

Medha: Maybe we didn't place the fruit right. That's why it's...

Jake: We didn't lance it well enough. I guess, yeah, you really wanna puncture the h--- out...

Medha: Just stick it in.

Jake: Still one more pass.

Medha: Yeah, I feel like this needs one more.

Jake: It needs another one.

Medha: That was beautiful.

Jake: Oh, my gosh, that's so satisfying. That's cool.

Medha: I don't think we need more. That's perfect. You only needed one layer.

Jake: That is a near-perfect peel.

Medha: That's perfect.

Jake: Kiwis? Five stars.

Medha: It flexed its arm wide enough so it could actually peel the pear in the right form. That was amazing

Jake: It is for all bodies, and I like that. Medha, I've noticed an issue.

Medha: What's happening? Nooo! OK, why don't we lay it sideways? Give it a chance. I believe in the machine.

Jake: All right, this is Medha's idea. I do not endorse this. We're gonna do sideways mango. Look at that! You got the underside of it!

Medha: Ah, no! Stop, stop, stop, stop! Wait, wait, wait. We're doing it?

Jake: H--- yeah.

Medha: OK.

Jake: Whoa!

Medha: That worked.

Jake: That worked like a charm. Eww!

Medha: That's a good tomato. I don't think it needed two! That's amazing. Wow!

Jake: You know what I have always wanted to do but have never had the opportunity?

Jake: Is it working?

Medha: I think so.

Jake: All right, Medha.

Medha: Yeah. I had the avocado.

Medha: Oh, what? Really? OK, fine. That was good. Jake, I just have to say I was right, and you were wrong.

Jake: Medha, I can't argue with that. You nailed it. You had it exactly right. This machine was pretty great.

Medha: It was amazing. It went through not only oranges but avocados, onions, tomatoes, basically, any fruit that can fit this machine, it worked. And I feel like if you were in the business of making fruit salads or anything else, this machine is your go-to product.

Jake: So Medha, I think you could say that this thing really works.

Medha: I do. I do think that this works, and I'm excited to bring this home.

Jake: Was this invention a total disaster?

Medha: Or a huge success?

Jake: Or somewhere in between?

Medha: Let us know in the comments.
