How can you consider yourself any sort of leftist when you defend AI art bullshit? You literally simp for AI techbros and have the gall to pretend you're against big corporations?? Get fucked

I don't "defend" AI art. I think a particular old post of mine that a lot of people tend to read in bad faith must be making the rounds again lmao.

Took me a good while to reply to this because you know what? I decided to make something positive out of this and use this as an opportunity to outline what I ACTUALLY believe about AI art. If anyone seeing this decides to read it in good or bad faith... Welp, your choice I guess.

I have several criticisms of the way the proliferation of AI art generators and LLMs is making a lot of things worse. Some of these are things I have voiced in the past, some of these are things I haven't until now:

Most image and text AI generators are fine-tuned to produce nothing but the most agreeable, generically pretty content slop, pretty much immediately squandering their potential to be used as genuinely interesting artistic tools with anything to offer in terms of a unique aesthetic experience (AI video still manages to look bizarre and interesting but it's getting there too)

In the entertainment industry and a lot of other fields, AI image generation is getting incorporated into production pipelines in ways that lead to the immiseration of working artists, being used to justify either lower wages or straight-up layoffs, and this is something that needs to be fought against. That's why I unconditionally supported the SAG-AFTRA strikes last year and will unconditionally support any collective action to address AI art as a concrete labor issue

In most fields where it's being integrated, AI art is vastly inferior to human artists in any use case where you need anything other than to make a superficially pretty picture really fast. If you need to do anything like ask for revisions or minor corrections, give very specific descriptions of how objects and people are interacting with each other, or just like. generate several pictures of the same thing and have them stay consistent with each other, you NEED human artists and it's preposterous to think they can be replaced by AI.

There is a lot of art on the internet that consists of the most generically pretty, cookie-cutter anime waifu-adjacent slop that has zero artistic or emotional value to either the people seeing it or the person churning it out, and while this certainly was A Thing before the advent of AI art generators, generative AI has made it extremely easy to become the kind of person who churns it out and floods online art spaces with it.

Similarly, LLMs make it extremely easy to generate massive volumes of texts, pages, articles, listicles and what have you that are generic vapid SEO-friendly pap at best and bizzarre nonsense misinformation at worst, drowning useful information in a sea of vapid noise and rendering internet searches increasingly useless.

The way LLMs are being incorporated into customer service and similar services not only, again, encourages further immiseration of customer service workers, but it's also completely useless for most customers.

A very annoyingly vocal part the population of AI art enthusiasts, fanatics and promoters do tend to talk about it in a way that directly or indirectly demeans the merit and skill of human artists and implies that they think of anyone who sees anything worthwile in the process of creation itself rather than the end product as stupid or deluded.

So you can probably tell by now that I don't hold AI art or writing in very high regard. However (and here's the part that'll get me called an AI techbro, or get people telling me that I'm just jealous of REAL artists because I lack the drive to create art of my own, or whatever else) I do have some criticisms of the way people have been responding to it, and have voiced such criticisms in the past.

I think a lot of the opposition to AI art has critstallized around unexamined gut reactions, whipping up a moral panic, and pressure to outwardly display an acceptable level of disdain for it. And in particular I think this climate has made a lot of people very prone to either uncritically entertain and adopt regressive ideas about Intellectual Propety, OR reveal previously held regressive ideas about Intellectual Property that are now suddenly more socially acceptable to express:

(I wanna preface this section by stating that I'm a staunch intellectual property abolitionist for the same reason I'm a private property abolitionist. If you think the existence of intellectual property is a good thing, a lot of my ideas about a lot of stuff are gonna be unpalatable to you. Not much I can do about it.)

A lot of people are suddenly throwing their support behind any proposal that promises stricter copyright regulations to combat AI art, when a lot of these also have the potential to severely udnermine fair use laws and fuck over a lot of independent artist for the benefit of big companies.

It was very worrying to see a lot of fanfic authors in particular clap for the George R R Martin OpenAI lawsuit because well... a lot of them don't realize that fanfic is a hobby that's in a position that's VERY legally precarious at best, that legally speaking using someone else's characters in your fanfic is as much of a violation of copyright law as straight up stealing entire passages, and that any regulation that can be used against the latter can be extended against the former.

Similarly, a lot of artists were cheering for the lawsuit against AI art models trained to mimic the style of specific artists. Which I agree is an extremely scummy thing to do (just like a human artist making a living from ripping off someone else's work is also extremely scummy), but I don't think every scummy act necessarily needs to be punishable by law, and some of them would in fact leave people worse off if they were. All this to say: If you are an artist, and ESPECIALLY a fan artist, trust me. You DON'T wanna live in a world where there's precedent for people's artstyles to be considered intellectual property in any legally enforceable way. I know you wanna hurt AI art people but this is one avenue that's not worth it.

Especially worrying to me as an indie musician has been to see people mention the strict copyright laws of the music industry as a positive thing that they wanna emulate. "this would never happen in the music industry because they value their artists copyright" idk maybe this is a the grass is greener type of situation but I'm telling you, you DON'T wanna live in a world where copyright law in the visual arts world works the way it does in the music industry. It's not worth it.

I've seen at least one person compare AI art model training to music sampling and say "there's a reason why they cracked down on sampling" as if the death of sampling due to stricter copyright laws was a good thing and not literally one of the worst things to happen in the history of music which nearly destroyed several primarily black music genres. Of course this is anecdotal because it's just One Guy I Saw Once, but you can see what I mean about how uncritical support for copyright law as a tool against AI can lead people to adopt increasingly regressive ideas about copyright.

Similarly, I've seen at least one person go "you know what? Collages should be considered art theft too, fuck you" over an argument where someone else compared AI art to collages. Again, same point as above.

Similarly, I take issue with the way a lot of people seem EXTREMELY personally invested in proving AI art is Not Real Art. I not only find this discussion unproductive, but also similarly dangerously prone to validating very reactionary ideas about The Nature Of Art that shouldn't really be entertained. Also it's a discussion rife with intellectual dishonesty and unevenly applied definition and standards.

When a lot of people present the argument of AI art not being art because the definition of art is this and that, they try to pretend that this is the definition of art the've always operated under and believed in, even when a lot of the time it's blatantly obvious that they're constructing their definition on the spot and deliberately trying to do so in such a way that it doesn't include AI art.

They never succeed at it, btw. I've seen several dozen different "AI art isn't art because art is [definition]". I've seen exactly zero of those where trying to seriously apply that definition in any context outside of trying to prove AI art isn't art doesn't end up in it accidentally excluding one or more non-AI artforms, usually reflecting the author's blindspots with regard to the different forms of artistic expression.

(However, this is moot because, again, these are rarely definitions that these people actually believe in or adhere to outside of trying to win "Is AI art real art?" discussions.)

Especially worrying when the definition they construct is built around stuff like Effort or Skill or Dedication or The Divine Human Spirit. You would not be happy about the kinds of art that have traditionally been excluded from Real Art using similar definitions.

Seriously when everyone was celebrating that the Catholic Church came out to say AI art isn't real art and sharing it as if it was validating and not Extremely Worrying that the arguments they'd been using against AI art sounded nearly identical to things TradCaths believe I was like. Well alright :T You can make all the "I never thought I'd die fighting side by side with a catholic" legolas and gimli memes you want, but it won't change the fact that the argument being made by the catholic church was a profoundly conservative one and nearly identical to arguments used to dismiss the artistic merit of certain forms of "degenerate" art and everyone was just uncritically sharing it, completely unconcerned with what kind of worldview they were lending validity to by sharing it.

Remember when the discourse about the Gay Sex cats pic was going on? One of the things I remember the most from that time was when someone went "Tell me a definition of art that excludes this picture without also excluding Fountain by Duchamp" and how just. Literally no one was able to do it. A LOT of people tried to argue some variation of "Well, Fountain is art and this image isn't because what turns fountain into art is Intent. Duchamp's choice to show a urinal at an art gallery as if it was art confers it an element of artistic intent that this image lacks" when like. Didn't by that same logic OP's choice to post the image on tumblr as if it was art also confer it artistic intent in the same way? Didn't that argument actually kinda end up accidentally validating the artistic status of every piece of AI art ever posted on social media? That moment it clicked for me that a lot of these definitions require applying certain concepts extremely selectively in order to make sense for the people using them.

A lot of people also try to argue it isn't Real Art based on the fact that most AI art is vapid but like. If being vapid definitionally excludes something from being art you're going to have to exclude a whooole lot of stuff along with it. AI art is vapid. A lot of art is too, I don't think this argument works either.

Like, look, I'm not really invested in trying to argue in favor of The Artistic Merits of AI art but I also find it extremely hard to ignore how trying to categorically define AI art as Not Real Art not only is unproductive but also requires either a) applying certain parts of your definition of art extremely selectively, b) constructing a definition of art so convoluted and full of weird caveats as to be functionally useless, or c) validating extremely reactionary conservative ideas about what Real Art is.

Some stray thoughts that don't fit any of the above sections.

I've occassionally seen people respond to AI art being used for shitposts like "A lot of people have affordable commissions, you could have paid someone like $30 to draw this for you instead of using the plagiarism algorithm and exploiting the work of real artists" and sorry but if you consider paying an artist a rate that amounts to like $5 for several hours of work a LESS exploitative alternative I think you've got something fucked up going on with your priorities.

Also it's kinda funny when people comment on the aforementioned shitposts with some variation of "see, the usage of AI art robs it of all humor because the thing that makes shitposts funny is when you consider the fact that someone would spend so much time and effort in something so stupid" because like. Yeah that is part of the humor SOMETIMES but also people share and laugh at low effort shitposts all the time. Again you're constructing a definition that you don't actually believe in anywhere outside of this type of conversations. Just say you don't like that it's AI art because you think it's morally wrong and stop being disingenuous.

So yeah, this is pretty much everything I believe about the topic.

I don't "defend" AI art, but my opposition to it is firmly rooted in my principles, and that means I refuse to uncritically accept any anti-AI art argument that goes against those same principles.

If you think not accepting and parroting every Anti-AI art argument I encounter because some of them are ideologically rooted in things I disagree with makes me indistinguishable from "AI techbros" you're working under a fucked up dichotomy.

The Bug Fables Wiki has Migrated to Miraheze!

TL;DR: If you're looking for the Bug Fables wiki, please use the Miraheze version instead! The Fandom wiki's maintenance is no longer being actively supported, and it should not be even visited.

The longer notice: The Bug Fables wiki is off Fandom for good! This has been a long time in the making, and it is overall a positive change. The Miraheze wiki is fully functional and better than the Fandom wiki was previously, with no ads, better formatting, and an active team helping to maintain and correct information. If you're reading this and would like to help out, by all means! You can always join the official Bug Fables Discord server and ask around in the wiki-spoilers channel, but it's also possible to simply use the Talk pages to communicate with wiki editors.

Now that the wiki is on Miraheze, the Fandom wiki will receive only very minor edits where necessary, if ever. However, do not vandalize the Fandom wiki. Beyond vandalism generally being unhelpful, any visitation to the Fandom wiki improves Search Engine Optimization (SEO) of the Fandom wiki, pushing it higher in search results and thus burying the Miraheze wiki. We want the new Miraheze wiki to be higher than the Fandom wiki in search results so traffic gets directed there, so even vandalism benefits Fandom in the end. Simply do not engage, do not click, pretend it doesn't exist.

The Bug Fables wiki has also been registered in Indie Wiki Buddy, an extension that automatically redirects away from Fandom wikis to indie wikis or a wiki mirror. It's recommended to click on the indie wiki directly yourself, but in case the indie wiki has poor SEO, this can help direct you to it. To reiterate: do not engage with the Fandom wiki. Fandom's monopoly over the wiki scene contributes significantly to the SEO of Fandom wikis, and every click counts, so spend them elsewhere.

Regardless, the migration has completed, but there's always work to be done. Whether you're just a wiki user or looking to help out with editing, I hope to see you on the new Miraheze wiki :)

🩸 Sweetest Taste - Seo Moonjo

[seo moonjo x fem reader]

notes! hi, this is my first ever post on tumblr ! please remember that english isn’t my first language, im sorry for any mistakes i make, if u like u can go to my page and request any time, just make sure that you read my rules and my who i write for :)

synopsis - you've been avoiding moonjo, embarrassed that you're on your period-but he notices. he always does.

warnings! period sex, blood kink, dark obsession, cannibalistic themes (?)

Moon-Jo had always loved watching you.

The way you moved, the way you breathed, the way your lips curled in frustration when you thought no one was looking. He memorized everything, studied every detail. But tonight, there was something different about you.

Something richer.

Something sweeter.

You had been avoiding him all evening. Keeping your distance. Your scent was different too—he could smell it the moment you walked past him in the hallway, could taste it in the air when you shifted in your seat at dinner. And then he knew.

You were bleeding.

His fingers twitched. His tongue darted out to wet his lips.

Oh, he thought, nearly dizzy with the realization. Oh, you have no idea what this does to me.

You hadn’t expected Moon-Jo to show up at your door so late.

But there he was, smiling, eyes dark with something unreadable.

"You’ve been avoiding me," he said, voice smooth, teasing. "That’s not very nice."

You swallowed hard, gripping the edge of the door. "I—it's not that, I just—"

His gaze dipped lower, dragging over your bare legs, your oversized shirt. His nostrils flared slightly, his expression shifting into something more primal.

"You smell different."

Your breath hitched. "What?"

Moon-Jo stepped forward, pressing a hand against the door, forcing you to step back. He slipped inside, shutting the door behind him. The air between you crackled with tension.

His fingers ghosted over your hip, his touch light but deliberate. "You're on your period."

Heat rushed to your cheeks. "Moon-Jo—"

He hummed, tilting his head, watching your reaction with quiet amusement. "Were you embarrassed? Is that why you stayed away?"

You opened your mouth to protest, but then his hand slid lower, fingers pressing over your lower belly. Gentle. Curious.

"You’re aching, aren’t you?" His voice dropped, turning softer, almost tender. "I can feel it."

You tensed, every nerve in your body suddenly on fire. His touch was so deliberate, so knowing.

"You don’t have to hide from me," he murmured. "I want you. Always."

Your breath came faster now. His fingers trailed higher, slipping beneath the hem of your shirt, tracing the warmth of your skin.

"But right now…" Moon-Jo leaned in, lips brushing against your ear. "Right now, I want to taste you."

A shiver ran down your spine. "You can’t be serious—"

He laughed—low, amused, utterly feral.

"Honey," he whispered, gripping your chin, tilting your face up to his. "You forget what I am."

And then he kissed you.

It was deep, consuming, filled with a hunger that made your knees weak. His hands slid under your shirt, pushing it up, palming your breasts, teasing your nipples between his fingers.

You moaned into his mouth, and he swallowed the sound greedily.

"Let me," he murmured against your lips, sinking down to his knees in front of you. His hands dragged down your sides, fingers hooking into the waistband of your shorts.

You hesitated. "Moon-Jo, I—"

He looked up at you, his pupils blown wide, his lips already parted in anticipation.

"Do you trust me?"

You did. And that was the problem.

But you nodded anyway.

His breath hitched, and then he was pulling your shorts and underwear down in one smooth motion, exposing you completely.

You felt the heat of his breath against your inner thighs, the way he inhaled deeply, savoring your scent.

"Fuck," he exhaled, his fingers gripping your thighs, spreading you open. "You’re so pretty like this."

And then he licked a slow, teasing stripe through your folds.

A strangled moan tore from your throat. Your legs threatened to give out, but his grip tightened, holding you steady.

"You taste so good," he murmured, dragging his tongue over you again, groaning against your skin. "So rich. So sweet."

His mouth worked you open, tongue delving deeper, lips sealing over your clit and sucking, drinking you in like he was starving.

The wet sounds, the slick slide of his tongue, the obscene way he moaned against you—it was too much.

"Moon-Jo—fuck—"

He growled against your skin, sending vibrations through you. His fingers dug into your thighs, his pace relentless. He loved this. Loved the taste of you, the scent of your arousal mixed with the dark, coppery tang of blood.

He didn’t shy away from it. He embraced it.

And that alone sent you spiraling.

Your fingers tangled in his hair, pulling him closer, and he groaned, his hips grinding against nothing, desperate, needy.

"More," he breathed against your soaked flesh. "Give me more."

His tongue pushed deeper, his teeth grazing your sensitive skin, not quite biting, just teasing. Just reminding you of what he was.

And that—that—was what pushed you over the edge.

You came with a broken moan, thighs trembling, pleasure crashing through you in waves. Moon-Jo growled as you pulsed against his tongue, his grip unrelenting as he rode you through it, savoring every drop, every twitch, every little gasp.

Even when you tried to pull away, he didn’t let you.

"Not yet," he murmured, licking you clean, slow and thorough, sending aftershocks through your already-sensitive body. "I want all of it."

You whimpered, hands still tangled in his hair, chest rising and falling in ragged breaths.

Only then did he finally pull back, his lips and chin glistening with your slick and blood.

He licked them clean, his eyes locked onto yours.

"Perfect," he whispered, standing slowly, towering over you once more. His hands slid up your sides, his touch reverent, possessive.

"You’re mine now," he murmured, pressing his forehead to yours. "You know that, don’t you?"

Your body still ached, still trembled, but you nodded.

Moon-Jo smiled.

And then he kissed you again—deep and slow, letting you taste yourself on his tongue.

Letting you feel just how much he adored you.

Mine To Keep

Pairing : YANDERE!! Seokjin x reader

Word count : 2.7k

Authors note : I'm really enjoying writing BTS members as YANDERE lol. I also have a KOFI page so if you'd like to support me make sure to check it out!!

Summary : Y/N grows increasingly jealous and possessive after noticing Seokjin’s coworker flirting with him. At an office party, tension builds as Y/N confronts Seokjin in a bathroom stall, marking him as hers.

The office was buzzing with activity, a mix of conversation and laughter echoing through the space. Seokjin stood beside you, his hand a comforting weight on your back. You should have been enjoying the night—mingling with friends, having fun—but the constant presence of Mina, hovering around Seokjin, was driving you mad.

She was everywhere, her laugh high-pitched and too eager, her touch lingering far too long whenever she was near him.

“Seokjin!” Mina’s voice rang out as she skipped over to him. You forced a smile, but inside you were seething. She ignored you completely, not even bothering to acknowledge your presence as she giggled at something Seokjin said.

Seokjin’s lips curved into a polite smile, but there was an edge to his voice when he replied, “Yes, Mina?”

“You know, Seokjin,” Mina said with a bright grin, “I was just thinking about how much I appreciate your help with the project. You’re such a lifesaver.” She laid a hand on his arm, the fingers brushing far too intimately for your liking.

You felt the heat rise in your chest. Your grip tightened on your wine glass. “It’s lucky he’s mine,” you said smoothly, injecting just the right amount of coldness into your voice.

Mina blinked, her face flickering for a second before she plastered a polite smile. “Oh! Y/N, didn’t see you there!” she said with the kind of insincerity only someone used to being “the other woman” could pull off.

“Clearly,” you replied, keeping your tone sweet but sharp. You slipped your arm around Seokjin’s, your body language possessive and unyielding. “But I suppose you’re busy.”

Seokjin's eyes flickered down at you, clearly amused by your subtle jab, though he said nothing.

---

A few minutes later, as Seokjin and Mina were talking again, you stood off to the side, staring daggers at the two of them. Mina was touching his arm again, laughing at something he said with that tone—one that made your stomach churn.

“Everything okay, Y/N?” Namjoon’s voice interrupted your thoughts. You turned to see him standing there, leaning casually against the wall, his eyes glinting with amusement.

“Everything’s fine,” you said, your voice a little too sharp. Namjoon raised an eyebrow.

“Are you sure? Because you’re giving Mina enough side-eye to burn a hole through her.” He smirked knowingly, glancing back at Seokjin and Mina, who were still deep in conversation.

“I’m fine,” you muttered, though you didn’t sound convincing even to yourself.

Namjoon chuckled, pushing himself off the wall and stepping closer to you. “Y/N,” he said with a smirk, “I think I see what’s going on here.”

Your eyes narrowed. “What are you talking about?”

He tilted his head toward Seokjin and Mina, then back at you. “You’re jealous, aren’t you?”

“I’m not jealous,” you snapped. “She’s just—she’s been all over him all night, and I’m sick of it. She knows he’s married, but that doesn’t stop her. She’s like some parasite, and he’s too nice to tell her to back off.” You crossed your arms over your chest, feeling the frustration rising in you.

Namjoon’s smirk grew wider. “Uh-huh. Sure.” He leaned in a little closer, his voice teasing. “You know, it’s kind of cute when you get like this.”

“Cute?” you repeated with disbelief. “She’s been clinging to him all night. All night, Namjoon! I don’t know what her problem is, but I’m done letting her run around like this.”

He raised his hands in mock surrender. “Hey, hey, I get it. I do.” His expression softened for a moment, and he glanced back at Seokjin, who was now laughing at something Mina said. “But listen, Seokjin is so into you. He’s been looking at you all night like you're the only person in the room. Trust me, you don’t have to worry about her.”

You shot him a pointed look. “I don’t care. I’m tired of her pretending like she doesn’t know he’s married. And he’s being too nice. Like a damn pushover.”

Namjoon chuckled, clearly enjoying your flustered state. “Yeah, that’s Seokjin for you. Always too nice, always trying to make everyone happy.”

You weren’t sure whether to be annoyed or impressed by how easily he was fanning the flames.

“Okay, but you are jealous, right?” Namjoon’s eyes gleamed with mischief, clearly enjoying your frustration.

“I—” you began, but before you could finish, you saw Seokjin and Mina talking again. This time, she was standing too close, leaning in just a bit too much. You could practically hear the wheels turning in her head. Your chest tightened with irritation.

“See?” Namjoon said, his voice quiet but amused. “Told you. If it makes you feel better, I can go have a little chat with her.”

You didn’t wait for him to finish his sentence. Without another word, you stormed off, your heels clicking sharply against the floor.

---

By the time you reached Seokjin and Mina, you were practically boiling over with rage. Mina was laughing again, her hand on Seokjin’s arm as she stood just a bit too close, her perfume too strong.

You couldn’t take it anymore. The image of her hands on him, her smile too wide, her words too flirtatious—it all broke something inside you.

“There you are,” you said, your voice deceptively sweet. Seokjin’s head snapped toward you, his surprise evident, but Mina didn’t even seem to notice your presence until you spoke again.

“I was just telling Seokjin about—”

“Hahaha, that’s funny,” you interrupted, your voice low and venomous. “Now get your hands off my husband, or I’ll tear both your hands off and shove one down your throat and the other up your ass.”

The room fell silent for a moment, all eyes on you as Mina’s face went white. Her smile faltered, and she stammered something unintelligible.

Seokjin blinked, but he quickly recovered, his expression shifting to something between surprise and... amusement?

“Y/N,” he said softly, a chuckle escaping his lips. “I didn’t know you cared this much.”

You didn’t respond, just grabbed his wrist and pulled him away from Mina, your eyes never leaving her. You could feel her gaze on your back as you dragged Seokjin down the hallway, but you didn’t care.

---

The moment the bathroom door slammed shut behind you, Seokjin’s amused smile faltered, replaced by confusion as you stormed toward him. Without warning, you grabbed him by the collar, yanking him forward and pushing him harshly against the door. The impact made him gasp, his hands instinctively reaching out to steady himself, but you were already all over him.

You were furious, your mind consumed by jealousy and possessiveness, and you needed him to know it. Gripping his collar tighter, you leaned into him, your lips grazing his skin as you whispered the word—so soft, so threatening. “Mine.”

Seokjin froze, his eyes wide with surprise, but before he could respond, you slammed your lips against his neck, marking him with a hot, possessive kiss.

“MINE,” you growled, your voice sharp with urgency as your lips found their way to his jaw. You kissed him again, harder this time, leaving a bold, red imprint. You could feel the tension radiating off him, his body tense under your touch.

“MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE!” You repeated the word over and over, frantic and desperate. Your hands moved to his face, holding him still as you kissed him everywhere—his cheeks, his forehead, his lips—all while chanting that one word.

“MINE! ALL MINE!”

Seokjin gasped, his breath hitching as your lips left streaks of lipstick on his face, the marks undeniable, a visual claim. His hands reached for you, but you were in complete control now, pushing his chest back into the door as your lips assaulted his skin.

“Mine… all mine, Seokjin,” you hissed between kisses, your hands now fisting in his shirt, tugging him closer. You could feel his pulse under your lips, the quickening of his heartbeat making your own pulse race.

Seokjin’s hands slid down to your waist, pulling you closer, his lips desperate against yours. He was breathing heavily, clearly overwhelmed by your sudden intensity, but you didn’t stop. You kissed him harder, more urgently. You needed him to understand.

“Mine! MINE! MINE!” You said it like a mantra, frantically pressing your lips against his face, leaving lipstick marks all over him, marking him with every kiss.

“Y/N,” he gasped, his voice strained as he tried to pull back slightly, but you wouldn’t let him. “You—”

“MINE!” you snapped again, louder, your voice raw with emotion, as if saying it over and over would make it more real, more permanent.

Seokjin’s eyes were wild, caught between shock and desire, his hands now fully gripping your hips, pulling you flush against him. “I know… I know, Y/N,” he murmured, voice low and heavy with a mixture of awe and lust.

You kissed him one last time, passionately, claiming his lips as your own. Pulling back just enough to catch your breath, you glared up at him with fierce eyes.

“Don’t you forget it,” you whispered, your tone dark and possessive. “You’re mine, Seokjin. Only mine.”

His face, now dotted with your lipstick marks, held an expression of admiration and something darker—he knew exactly who owned him.

—

The sound of your breathing was steadying, but your heart still raced as you leaned against Seokjin’s chest, his arms wrapped tightly around you. The room felt warm, the chaos of emotions still swirling inside you. You hadn't meant to be so… intense, but the jealousy had overwhelmed you.

Seokjin’s voice, soft and soothing, cut through the storm of your thoughts. "Hey, it's okay," he murmured, his hands gently caressing your back, guiding you to calm. He pulled you tighter against him, feeling the rapid rise and fall of your chest. “it's just—you're mine and I hate it when someone else looks at you that way I hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it."

You buried your face into his chest, inhaling his scent as the tension in your body slowly began to ease. His calm presence was grounding, and the intensity from earlier started to fade.

"You really are something else, you know that?" Seokjin chuckled softly, his fingers gently tugging at a strand of your hair, the amusement clear in his voice. "But I wouldn’t want you any other way."

You raised your head, meeting his eyes, still flushed and a little embarrassed. "I’m sorry if I... scared you."

Seokjin’s lips curled into a playful smirk as he cupped your face, tilting it up gently. "Scared? You didn’t scare me. I think you just reminded me exactly how much you care." His thumb brushed over your cheek, and his gaze softened. "And you know I love it when you’re possessive. It’s... kind of adorable, actually."

You rolled your eyes, the corners of your lips twitching upward despite yourself. "I wasn’t trying to be adorable," you muttered, but his warmth and presence made it hard to stay upset.

As you took a step back to fix yourself, Seokjin smiled down at you, his hands still resting on your waist. He adjusted his shirt, giving you a moment to compose yourself before you both left the bathroom.

The door opened, and you stepped out of the stall, feeling a little more composed, but still aware of the lingering tension in the air.

Seokjin paused as he caught sight of his reflection in the mirror. His face was practically covered in lipstick marks—your lipstick marks—some smudged, others bold and fresh. His eyes widened as he took in the scene, his expression a mixture of surprise and amusement.

He sighed, shaking his head as he glanced at you, his smirk returning. "Well, this is... certainly a look," he said teasingly, rubbing his cheek with his hand and leaving a streak of red. "Guess I’m walking out of here with your claim on me for the night."

Your face flushed a deeper shade of red, and you quickly glanced away, feeling both embarrassed and flustered by the marks you had left on him. "I didn’t— I mean, I wasn’t thinking when I did that!" you stammered, your hands fidgeting in nervous energy.

Seokjin laughed, his gaze softening as he moved toward you, his hands reaching up to cup your face. "It’s fine," he said, his voice low and teasing. "I love how... possessive you get." His thumb traced the outline of a lipstick mark on his cheek, a twinkle in his eye. "But I have to admit, it’s kind of cute. You definitely know how to make a statement."

"Seokjiniee," you groaned, covering your face in embarrassment.

He leaned in, pressing a kiss to your forehead, his lips lingering there for a moment. "Don’t be embarrassed. You’re mine, and you made that very clear. I wouldn’t have it any other way."

With a final chuckle, Seokjin grabbed your hand, leading you out of the bathroom. As you walked side by side, you couldn’t help but glance at his face, now completely covered in your lipstick, a clear reminder of the claim you had just made on him.

Despite your earlier frustration, a part of you couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction, knowing that Seokjin was, without a doubt, yours.

The car door clicked shut with a soft sound as Seokjin slid into the driver's seat, the engine humming to life as the night air cooled the interior. You leaned back against the seat, feeling the tension still simmering beneath your skin from the night. The drive home was quiet, just the gentle hum of the tires on the road.

But Seokjin wasn't quite ready to let you off the hook.

As he pulled out of the parking lot, his hand moved casually to your leg, the fingertips grazing your skin just enough to make your heart race. You glanced at him, but his gaze remained fixed on the road, his expression unreadable. He didn't need to say a word to make you aware of his presence, his touch still lingering against your leg.

"You seemed so eager to mark me tonight," he murmured, his voice low and smooth, a hint of amusement in his tone. "I guess now it's my turn to leave a mark on you.”

You blinked, the words catching you off guard. His hand slowly traveled higher, gently pressing against the back of your knee, his fingers brushing the fabric of your dress. The teasing tone in his voice wasn't lost on you-he was playing with you, and he knew exactly what he was doing.

Your breath hitched, a quiet tension building between you. "What do you mean?" you asked, trying to sound casual, but you couldn't quite hide the way your pulse quickened.

Seokjin turned his head briefly, his lips curling into a small, knowing smile. His fingers tightened slightly on your leg, but his touch was still gentle, slow-deliberate. "I think you know exactly what I mean," he replied softly. "You've had your fun tonight, leaving your mark on me... but now, it's my turn."

You felt a slight shiver run down your spine, and your gaze locked onto him, catching the glint of mischief in his eyes. He wasn't rushing, wasn't demanding-he was savoring every second of the teasing, letting the tension hang in the air between you two.

Seokjin's thumb stroked the back of your leg, slowly, as if he were tracing a path, but all the while his words lingered in your mind. "I'll make sure everyone knows you belong to me," he said quietly, almost possessively, his eyes flicking to yours with an intensity that made your breath catch.

The car seemed to grow hotter, the anticipation building slowly. He didn't need to do anything more than the soft caress of his fingers, the quiet, teasing promise of what was to come. But the heat between you was undeniable, and you couldn't help but feel the urge to close the space between you.

You opened your mouth to say something, but Seokjin silenced you with a soft laugh, his hand now resting higher on your leg, just enough to make you squirm.

"I think you're already feeling it, aren't you?" he whispered, his voice thick with satisfaction.

That night Jin made sure to make her in ways she never thought he was capable of

PIERCE THE VEIL

when it's over the scenes fall in two. when it's over the sun will be back for you. nothing but your boys openly expressing the beautiful art of their love for you, but make it a little emo.

some parts of this series covers heavy topics such as suicide, self-harm, toxic relationships, etc. if you are not comfortable with that, i suggest you to read something else on my page. while some of these songs have more tame fics attatched to it, others can be dark. some of these fics are not completely accurate to the original meaning of the song, and moreover interpreted by me.

PAIRING stray kids x gn!reader WC 9.5k TAGLIST series complete! OMI NOTE i couldn't be more grateful to carry on this work AHH. i think that these topics need to be talked about, and if it makes someone feel heard, then i'm honored to be writing it. especially in the form of a band that i've learned to love and find comfort in.

emergency contact by bang chan chan was starved for you. he was infatuated by anything that had to do with you, craving your guys' happily ever after. the world was at your disposal and he just wanted you. he helps you realize that maybe you want him too.

damn the man, save the empire by lee minho on the surface, you were beautifully perfect. inside, was a different story. this composure influences an argument between you and minho. he helps you realize that no one cares anyways.

circles by seo changbin changbin was a romantic, and he wanted nothing more in the world than to run away with your hand perfectly fit into his. if not forever, for a little while.

disasterology by hwang hyunjin hyunjin dreamed of you and the things you'd do together, and not one soul knew about it. he finally draws up the courage to show you his intentions

even when i'm not with you by han jisung when han was with you, alcohol tasted less bitter and the world seemed a little less loud. he agreed to take thing slow, but the smoke of a clouded bathroom made the two of you seem to forget about that.

kissing in cars by lee felix you thought breaking up with felix was the hardest thing you've ever done. what was even harder was thinking about a future without him. but second chances won't leave you alone.

a match into water by kim seungmin seungmin never wanted things to end up this way, he hated seeing you like this. as he kissed up your scarred skin, he let you know that you were in this together, and he was never going to let you go.

flawless execution by yang jeongin you were hurting. as your closest friend, jeongin was always in the aftermath of it, and it made you feel crazy. he was so in love with you, he wanted to help you. maybe he was the crazy one.

Favorite Firefox Extensions

Firefox is a very extensible browser - through a combinations of addons and userscripts you can make it behave just about any way you want. The best part is, they're all free. Here are some of my favorites.

Note: if you have an Android device, check out my post about Firefox for Android's new extended support for addons!

Note: if you have an Apple device, check out my favorite Safari extensions here!

Last updated Feb 2025 (updated list of languages supported for native, local translation by Firefox).

Index:

uBlock Origin

Tab Session Manager

Sauron

Bypass Paywalls Clean

Auto Tab Discard

Video DownloadHelper

Highlight or Hide Search Engine Results

TWP - Translate Web Pages

UnTrap - YouTube Customizer

Indie Wiki Buddy

Cookie Auto Delete

ShopSuey - Get Rid of Ads on Amazon and Ebay

LibraryExtension

Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy

uBlock Origin

(compatible with Firefox for Android)

This is the first addon I install on any new Firefox browser. It's an adblocker, but at its core it can remove pretty much any HTML element from a website, and it comes with pre-configured lists for removing everything from ads to cookie banners to those annoying popups that ask you to sign up for email newsletters.

Tab Session Manager

Have you ever accidentally lost all your open browser tabs due to a computer update, or even just accidentally closing Firefox? With this addon you no longer have to worry about that - it automatically saves your open tabs and windows every time the browser closes, and autosaves a restore point of tabs every few minutes in case the browser crashes unexpectedly. Opening all your previous tabs and windows is a one-click deal.

Sauron

Ever wished your favorite website had a dark mode? With Sauron, now it can! Sauron attempts to intelligently figure out how to edit the color scheme of the web page (including text) to make it dark-mode friendly. It preserves the original color of images, but dims them so that they don't blind you. You can disable image dimming or dark mode on a site by site basis too. It's not perfect since it is making guesses about which colors to change, but it goes a long way toward making the internet an enjoyable place for me.

Bypass Paywalls Clean

This addon removes paywalls from hundreds of news websites around the world or adds links to open the article in a wrapper that provides the article text (like the Internet Archive etc.)

Auto Tab Discard

Ever wanted to keep a tab open for later use, but you notice the browser getting slower and slower the more tabs you have open? Auto Tab Discard will automatically "hibernate" tabs that you haven't used in a while so that they use less resources on your computer. It's smart enough not to hibernate pages that are playing media (like YouTube) or that have forms you haven't submitted yet (like job applications). You can customize how fast it puts tabs to sleep too and exclude certain websites from hibernating at all.

Video DownloadHelper

This addon can download streaming videos from most modern (HTML5) websites, and even finds soft subtitles that accompany the stream and downloads those too. Just browse to the webpage that has the video on it, click the icon in the Firefox toolbar, and select the video you want to download and click "Quick Download". For YouTube I would recommend using a YT downloader website (like KeepVid) to download the video directly, but Video DownloadHelper really shines for websites that aren't popular enough to have dedicated downloader websites like that. I've used it download videos from a Japanese film festival streaming portal, news websites, etc.

Highlight or Hide Search Engine Results

This addon allows you to blacklist websites and completely remove them from Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo search results. Don't want to see image search results from AI websites? Blacklist them. Searching for tech support advice and getting frustrated by all the auto-generated junk websites that stuff themselves full of SEO terms to jump to the top of the search results without actually providing any information at all? Blacklist them so they don't come up in your next search. Conversely, you can also whitelist websites that you know and trust so that if they ever come up in future search results, they'll be highlighted with a color of your choosing for visibility.

TWP - Translate Web Pages

(compatible with Firefox for Android)

Does what it says on the tin: auto-detects a website's language and provides a button that can translate it to a language of your choosing. You can also just select individual text on the page and translate just that. Note that this sends whatever text you translate to the servers of your selected translation service (Google, Bing, Yandex, or DeepL), so keep in mind the privacy implications if you don't want your IP address associated with having read that text.

Edit: As of version 118, Firefox now has the ability to translate text locally on your computer, without needing to send it to a cloud service. You can enable this in Settings -> Translation -> Install languages for offline translation. Note that at this time (Feb 2025), 31 languages are supported - Russian, Korean, Chinese (simplified), and Japanese were recently added. More info here.

UnTrap for YouTube

(compatible with Firefox for Android and they have a Safari for iOS extension too)

This addon lets you tweak the YouTube interface and hide anything you don't want to see. For instance, I hide all the "recommended" videos that come up when you search YT now. They have nothing to do with your search, so they're essentially just ads YT puts in your search results. I also hide Explore, Trending, More from YouTube, and Shorts sections, but you can customize it to fit your preferences.

Note: depending on the particular set of tweaks you want to make to YouTube, you may prefer to use YouTube Search Fixer instead. User preference.

Indie Wiki Buddy

I loathe Fandom.com wiki sites - they are cluttered and filled with ads and autoplaying videos that follow you down the page as you scroll. The organization is also hostile - if a community tries to leave their platform and bring their content to a new wiki hoster, Fandom bans them from the platform and reverts all their deletions/changes. Indie Wiki Buddy attempts to find an independent alternative for the wiki you're trying to browse and automatically redirects you to it, and if one doesn't exist, it will redirect you to a proxy site like antifandom or breezewiki that shows the Fandom content but removes all ads/videos/background images so you can actually, you know. READ it.

Cookie Auto Delete

(compatible with Firefox for Android)

Websites store "cookies" - little text files with info about you - on your computer as you browse so they can track you as you browse the internet. This addon automatically deletes cookies from a website a short while after you close the last tab you had open for that site. You can customize how long it waits before clearing cookies too. Note that this can sign you out of many websites, so you can whitelist any site you don't want cookies cleared for.

ShopSuey - Get Rid of Ads on Amazon and Ebay

Removes the ads/recommended products that clutter up Amazon and Ebay search results and product pages.

LibraryExtension

This fantastic addon recognizes when you are viewing a book on many popular websites and can automatically check whether that book is available in any of the library systems or subscription services you have access to, including how many copies your library(ies) have and how many are currently checked out. The best part is it shows the availability for physical books, ebooks, AND audiobooks at supported libraries. The extension currently supports libraries in Australia, Canada, Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, but it also supports some global repositories like the Internet Archive and subscription services like NLS Bard for the blind and print disabled, Kobo Plus, Libro.fm, Anyplay.fm, Bookmate, and Everand. Great extension for people trying to support their local library and also save money.

Filtering+ for Tumblr

This addon lets you add tags or phrases to your tumblr tag filters with two clicks, without leaving the dashboard. I've been asking Tumblr for this tag filtering behavior on their mobile apps (i.e. press and hold a tag to get a filter option) for at least a year now in asks and surveys, without ever stopping to see if someone had already implemented this on desktop. More fool me. This addon is from the author of XKit Rewritten. Note that the right-click tag filtering only works on the dashboard; it will not appear if you are on someone's blog. Right-clicking selected text to filter the phrase works everywhere based on my testing.

Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy

This addon does its best to re-enable the normal right-click context menu and copy/paste actions on pages that try to disable them. If you run into a site that messes with either of those, select this addon and check "Enable Copy," then try again. If that doesn't work, check "Absolute mode." It doesn't work everywhere, but I find it very helpful.

this is very english 101 but how do you come up with your thesis statements? i’m writing again after not having done it for a while and i think i’m missing the point of what a thesis achieves other than stating your argument

A thesis statement basically focuses your paper and keeps it on track, guides your reader, and gives them a clear expectation of what they're going to read. It also provides a foundation for your introduction and conclusion and keeps the paper coherent. In school you are usually told to write your thesis statement first, but honestly my thesis statement evolves a lot as I write and research and discover new things.

Here's one of my own examples and how I came up with it to help hopefully illustrate what I mean.

The panic essay:

"This deep dive examines Panic! at the Disco’s 2009 split through a completely different lens. I broaden the scope of my analysis beyond Brendon Urie and Ryan Ross, and explore the conflicts between the band, their label, and the press. By looking beyond just the inner workings of Panic!, this essay illuminates under- or un-explored elements of the split, and helps us better understand just what happened that led up to Panic’s implosion and the disappearance of Ryan Ross."

This was an earlier thesis statement:

In this 50-page essay, I fully contextualize everything before, during, and after Panic! at the Disco’s 2009 split, and argue that an analysis of the literary references on Pretty. Odd. illuminates some of the interpersonal conflicts that played into Panic!’s infamous breakup.

A big reason why this essay bombed the first time I posted it was because the thesis statement wasn't really accurate and was very unfocused and vague and not original or compelling. I knew I wanted to talk about Pete, Ryan, and James interacting with each other instead of Panic at the Disco but I didn't want to come out and say it in the introduction. There were a lot of reasons-- mainly "who freaking cares about Pete's terrible book"-- that made me gunshy about saying this. Not doing this caused a lot of structural problems with the whole first quarter of the essay.

There were other reasons too-- like I think my usual approach SEO was holding me back a lot. There was also a fanfic-y original introduction I really loved that was based around a comment of Ryan asking on Christmas morning for a link to Pete's secret journals, because it was just so sad and didn't fit anywhere else in the essay. There was other one liners in it like calling Pete "the world's bluest protostar" and the "brain eating amoeba" line that I liked on their own but were not working together.

I was really attached to it, but ended up taking it out at the last minute because I knew it was not working at all. Which is all why "kill your darlings" is a thing. But by that point I had a death in the family and had kind of given up but didn't want to just not post the essay because I had been working really hard on it for like six months so I think it had to flop badly and I had to take a six month break and then work on it for 2 more months so it could reach its final form lmao.

But anyway, I was honestly re-reading the essay (🍄) and suddenly had an epiphany that I needed to just fucking explain to the audience who these 3 people are and why they are relevant to Panic (representing the band, the label, and the press) and why I didn't talk about Brendon at all, and the whole thing kind of clicked and I had the idea for the video and the whole thing came together in about six weeks.
