Live on air
(For @feedinboi, who requested a manipulative feeder secretly broadcasting you. Ingredients: weight gain, secret feeder, manipulation, being made into chubby public property)
I wonder when you realised you'd become so many people's personal porn?
It certainly wasn't the day I posted the first picture. Just a quick snap on my phone of you standing in front of the open fridge. Sent to one special group chat, with a promise of what I was going to do to you.
One picture a day, for a little while. Capturing you chugging the soda I poured into the diet bottle, adding extra sugar to the already calorie laden mix.
Replacing your meal prepped protein shakes with thick cream and mass gainer concotions, you never questioning why they tasted so much better than before.
Just one picture a day - to start.
But my little switches start having an effect so quickly. It seems a shame not to document more of your changes.
You don't notice when I start posting multiple pictures a day.
I'm still being careful, but the opportunities to show your growing spread are too tempting to pass up. You, reaching for something off a top shelf, the curve of your belly opeeking out from under your shirt. You, struggling to pick up an m and m that fell to the floor as you ravenously poured a whole bag into your mouth - I guess those appretite stimulants I added to your 'protein shakes' are working.
The aphrodisiacs are working too, at least juding by the photos of your rounded ass I snap as you sheepishly slip into your room, one hand already on your bulge.
I thought you might notice when I installed the kitchen cam. Still, I put it in the fruit bowl - somewhere you never checked these days. Then it was a simple matter to set up the live stream for all your fans to enjoy.
You, devouring four huge meals at the kitchen table. You, dazed from the joint I rolled you chugging chocolate milk straight from the carton. You on a midnight fridge-raid you thought noone would see.
Even if you haven't noticed the cameras, there's no way you haven't noticed the effect I'm having on your body. I have a perfect document of those pyjama pants stretching out, of the day you tore a hole in the ass bending to grab icecream from the freezer. Now you usually wear your overstretched boxers around the house.
I noticed a few half hearted attempts to diet. The lean chicken I marinated in cream. The broccoli I fried for you in butter. Your heart was never in them though. You didn't know it yet, but you were already addicted to being full.
You certainly notice the cameras the day you realise how are addicted you are. The day you wake up to find the fridge empty, the cupboards bare. The day you waddle to me, rubbing your hungry belly, desperate for something to fill the emptiness. The day I promise to order you a feast, on one condition.
That's when I set up the camera on a tripod in front of the couch. You, confused but so desperate to be fed you agree to anything I say, lying back on the couch pinned under your huge but empty belly.
Me, placing a delivery order from three different restaurants and pulling out the icecream I hid from you, now melted into thick, sweet cream.
Starting the livestream for your - appropriately enough - ballooning fanbase by jiggling your huge soft belly while you moan and beg to be filled. Holding the carton to your lips and puring it down your throat, massaging your doming gut as you gulp.
By the time you finish the carton you're gasping for breath, but you're nowhere newar full yet. Good thing too - the first of the breakfasts your fans have funded is arriving, and you're going to eat every bite.
Smile for the camera, gorgeous.

to all the greasers i’ve loved before - chapter 2.
warnings: bad writing (my first time writing a multiple part fic ), i’m so sorry it took forever to get this chapter out the flo lore is wild, fem! curtis reader though it is never specified whether the reader is a bio daughter or adopted and so can be read as either, doesn’t follow book canon, 1,546 words <3
Awoken to sunlight streaming through your lace net curtains and the melodic ringing of your alarm you languidly slipped out of bed. Shivering from the cold morning air you threw on a pale pink kimono-style dressing gown you’d found for a dollar at the thrift store over your thin white nightdress and shuffled your feet into slippers. The house was often cold because heating was expensive - everything’s expensive if you lived on this side of the tracks though. Yawning you made your way downstairs and sat down at the wooden table opposite your brothers. Daryl had already left, his shifts began early and finished late.
“mornin’,”
Soda said in his cheerful voice and you smiled in response. It was impossible not to smile around Soda, his constantly pleased nature was infectious.
“How are you feeling about school Pony?”
you asked turning your attention to your younger brother. It was the first year he was by himself at school with you and Soda dropping out to help bring some money into the family. It was a source of great contention in the Curtis household as Daryl had felt that as a girl there were fewer opportunities for you anyways least of all if you dropped out of school but even he couldn’t ignore the risk of not being able to keep the house.
“crap”
said Ponyboy and you kicked him softly under the table.
“you know you’re not supposed to be using language like that”
you chided him fondly as he simply laughed.
“Sometimes I think you were stolen from the socs as a baby and dumped here with us”
he teased to which you rolled your eyes and began to eat your toast.
Breakfast was relatively quiet after that apart from occasional requests to pass the jam or the coffee and when you were finished with your jam-coated toast and your cream-filled coffee you raced upstairs to get ready.
After hasty rifling through your wardrobe, you found your diner uniform. A bright cherry red dress with your name embroidered on the breast pocket, practical saddle shoes and your hair pulled up off your face with a red ribbon. After adding a light amount of makeup you made your way downstairs. You pressed a quick kiss to Pony’s forehead and Soda‘s cheek and went to your bike outside. For now, riding a bike was nice but when the eventual winter chill kicked it would begin to change and you would arrive home with red cheeks and frozen fingers. At least the diner was close - small victories and all.
The recognisable tingle of the bell welcomed you to the cosy establishment where you worked. As you tied your apron and greeted Gary the cook you pondered on the safe predictability of today.
You knew exactly the customers that would come in, what they’d order and how much they’d tipped. It always began with the grouchy but sweet old men who would order one cup of black coffee and tip high.
Then late morning their wives would stumble in droves where they would order huge pitchers of sweet iced tea and heapings of berry pies. They would tell you how pretty you were, and show you pictures of their grandsons trying to set you up with them and they were forgetful when it came to tips to bless them. So much so that you could bet that even later that day their dear old husbands would return with what you were owed.
At lunchtime, it was the working men: the builders, the scaffolders and the tilers. Your brother would come in at this time and make sure all of them kept their hands to themselves. You’d give him a meal on the house which was always a huge club sandwich. They were so-so when they came to tips but you couldn’t blame them. Most often already had wives and kids to support. You would listen to them brag to each other about how their boy had thrown his first football or their little girl had started saying “dada” and when they left you allowed yourself to shed a few much-needed tears for your own dearly missed hard-working father.
And at four their wives would come in pushing the prams or holding their kid's hands as they brought them to the diner for an after-school snack of banana split or strawberry sundae. They were your favourite - you adored children. You wished that part of the day lasted till the end of your shift.
But no, there was one last group that would arrive in their loud cars, smoke curling from their cigarettes and crude words being exchanged among each other. You hated to admit it but that group was mainly made up of the people your brothers considered friends - you did not consider them the same. The very last week you’d had an uncomfortable run-in with Sylvia and her guard dog, Winston in which she had insulted the much-coveted ballet flats that you had scrimped and saved for.
“got a ballet recital after this?”
she had scoffed to which you had, perhaps rather defensively responded.
“They’re ballet flats - Audrey Hepburn wore a pair in vogue last month’s vogue”
matter of factly you had told - she’d probably been preparing another scathing comment but he had swarmed in, all wrapped up in leather and smelling like something wonderfully woodsy. Not that there was anything particularly wonderful about him. Wrapping an arm around her waist he had pressed a kiss to her cheek - a ridiculously public display if you had been asked. Then his obnoxiously crooked grin had turned its attention to you.
“hi, yah mini Curtis what you talking to my girl about?”
“shoes”
you’d said fussing with the straws as a means of showing disinterest as Sylvia extracted herself from his grip and wandered off. Presumably to go smoke outside.
“yours?”
wolf-like grinning as he spoke.
You simply nodded noncommittally.
“well they are pretty cute - like a little dancer’s eh?”
he said shrugging before following after her like a puppy. You would have loved to have a boy hanging on after you like he did with her though he tried to conceal it. Apparently Sylvia didn’t agree though as they had broken up a day later due to her screwing some guy behind his back.
Ah well, at least that meant they wouldn’t be coming in like that together again.
As expected as you were tying up your apron the old men were starting to arrive, hobbling and tripping into the diner and sitting at their respective little booths. What you hadn’t expected was the tall figure of Dallas lazily walking in. his long legs pulling him along as if he had all the time in the world. There was a lopsided smirk on his face as if he knew something you didn’t know and then as he waved a pale green envelope in the air it all made sense.
You felt sick to your stomach as you stared at him, doe eyes wide as your hands grasped at each other anxiously.
“I believe this is yours”
he said as he finally approached your counter with all the grace of a wolf pouncing on its prey.
“it’s not what you think it is-“
you started before he interrupted.
“so you don’t think that my eyes are like deep pools of dark chocolate? That I practically trembles with potent masculinity”
You went to speak but he held a finger up to silence you.
“look I’m flattered and all but Sylvia and I just broke up so it’s not gonna happen. Sorry kid”
You had been preparing to shout out to him - to come to your defence against the most self-assured, cocky guy you had ever met let alone liked till then in the corner of your eye you saw him start to peak through the door. Two-bit Jacobs.
Frantically you spoke
“Who did you come here with?”
he blinked slowly, perhaps confused as to why you weren’t weeping at his rejection before speaking
“I gave two-bit a ride. he said he had some stuff to catch up with you about”
as he spoke two-bit was making his way in - making his way to your counter, hands tucked in his pockets as he seemed to take in you and just that once you let your impulsivity control you.
Standing on your tip-toes and leaning over the counter you grabbed Dallas by the collar of the denim of his jacket and pulled his lips down to yours.
To your surprise rather than yelping and pushing you off his hands found their way around your waist as he gently kissed you back. Teasing jeering from the grandfathers echoed around as your face flushed red in embarrassment. This was not how you intended your first kiss to go and as you opened your eyes again you could see Two-bit had left.
“um - well, thanks”
you mumbled to Dallas before running to fill up coffee cups leaving him standing there with a gaping mouth. You might have laughed if you weren’t so humiliated. When you finished serving drinks he had left leaving you reeling. Would he tell your friends? Sylvia? Your brothers? God, you hoped not.
hope you like it! xoxo, flo <3

So after finding out that Sehun prefers to sleep shirtless with only his pants on (info from the Cream Soda live stream btw), I have the urge to know how it would be to lay down on his chest and fall asleep. You know, for science.
absolutely the best
i mean, as i said before, i don't think sehun is THAT into cuddles
but let's say it has been a rough couple of days for the two of you
or he had just made love to you
then you can be sure that sehun will be the one to pull you to his chest, gentle hand guiding your face to lay down on it
you lay down on the right side, spreading your hand on the left side so you can feel his heartbeat
sehun is naturally calm, so it doesn't surprise you when you feel how rhythmic, steady his heartbeat is
he doesn't feel the urge to speak but, if you do he will talk to you about anything pretty much
but he does feel the urge to touch you, so his fingers will be brushing your arm up and down, lightly caressing your skin to soothe you
sehun might also be at his phone, either playing a silly little game or scrolling through his apps
tease him about his score on the game and he will pinch you and whine at you
when he feels you're falling asleep though, he drops everything and turn all of his senses to you
he keeps caressing your arm, but now he pulls you a little bit closer
sehun smiles while looking down at you before closing his eyes
he pays extra attention to the way your breathing hits his skin and how you softly grabs his waist when you move on your sleep
it's just peaceful and so domestic, idk
sehun makes a little prayer before going to sleep himself, thanking whoever is taking care of him for bringing you into his life
#exo headcanons#exo#exo imagines#oh sehun x reader#oh sehun x you#oh sehun imagines#oh sehun headcanons#sehun x reader#sehun x you#sehun headcanons#sehun imagines#exo sehun#oh sehun#kpop scenarios#kpop fanfic#kpop imagines

You look at him
Totally couchbound
Fast food bags and wrappers surround him and even can be found in his folds
BRRRMPPTTTTTTTT
He's of course helplessly gassy. You ensured it by putting him on that diet
His tubby face and chins are smeared in grease and sauce, majority being mayo
You made sure he craved the extra fatty stuff, stuff no sane human would ingest even on a dare
Lest they turn into a porker like him
His sweaty body looks as if it could give off steam it was so hot
You tuned the temperature of the "living room" to make sure he was always sweating
A bottle of sugary soda or an ice cold ice cream shake was always in reach to cool him down
Especially when he unceremoniously dumps it down his front because his fat sausage fingers were deprived of any dexterity long ago
He loves the feeling of the icy cold slop washing down his bloated areola
Those plumped nipples he was constantly groping and teasing any time he got even remotely close to turned on
After all even when he could get up he couldn't reach down there
A growing mound of pubic blubber and a steady dose of specially crafted "supplements" ensured that
And oh how he was turned on
Maybe it was the constant stream of humiliating smut you'd play over multiple TVs in his eyeline.
Maybe it was the fact any time he fruitlessly attempted to stand like he was still capable of being a functioning person the wobbling of his fatpad stimulated that useless little thing it'd swallowed
Maybe it was you constantly fucking his cavernous greasy navel like it was your own personal onahole
Or the friends you allowed to do the same
Maybe his mind was so hopelessly broken that the mere act of eating that greasy slop one could charitably call "food" made his pathetic cock twitch
Either way it gave him hands free orgasms that made him spurt hot gallon sized puddles of cum directly onto the carpet in front of where he sat
On that couch
His prison
His permanent home
You know he loves it
At least
You sure do
#fatten me#slob#Doesn't mention any specific names#But#You know who it's about#Still easy enough to substitute in any guy ya want tho#Even yourself#I won't judge#After all I imagined myself in his place a couple times while writing#Subtle hint you should fatten my sona til he's barely recognizable~

Swag a la Italy 🇮🇹
Hey
Mixer T, there
PK
I jump on Italian rap like a trampoline
Brother, I've been at it for a while, you scream
She gets wet when I rhyme
To do it better I found the algorithm
The flow weighs one kilo
Like the Migos necklaces
I'll smoke you in one hit
You're a Chilum in the park, I ride it with the widest filter
Then I enter precisely, bro, archery on the sample
When I hear you you're like the wind if I'm turning it around
No, I don't feel like a deaf man sleeping
Bro, I win gold, platinum and silver
With her in the hotel, bro, more stars than Hokuto
I go, straight cash like Coccoluto
Her pussy is Newton's apple
I smoke it whole bro in a minute (wooo!)
We are artists
We seem happy but then we're sad (hey)
We write records (ha!)
These rappers go home then diss us (wooo!)
I have the black box, you a package (ha ha!)
I'm a goal in the final with the heel
With you it's like boxing with the bag
When I hear your music it comes down to me
I don't care if it sounds good or if it sells
We are us and we don't change anything
We are us and we don't change anything
Emme!
I smoke from morning to night, bro
I'm having dinner with my girlfriend
Crazy panther kitten, bro
Guajira Guantanamera
I'm going up the stream
Brother, no, no, I don't have a dick, I have a propeller
His face white, hungry, anemic
Fievel landing in America
Sometimes, sometimes I inhale such a quantity that I pass out
I watch her ass go, they are so high that it seems like they are going up
You're on a pedal toilet
What a toilet, what a rate, with an ass that looks like a hexagon
Maybe it was better if you remained a bachelor
It's getting late, let's talk, I'm running bro!
I'll take a shot of ice cream, bro
Then I smile at you like a triceratops
Wanted flow machine gun, bro (hey)
Matrix change I'm regenerating it (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Die of envy, yes, you are triggered (seh)
Bad language, the beat is eviscerated
The feat is refined, the drink is mixed
What a fucking life, bro, I was a hermit! (em!)
At work, bro, I'm still a rapper
Even though I'm handsome, I'm an influencer
We are us and we don't change anything
We are us and we don't change anything
Ouch, ouch, tremble when you hear Lebon on the mic (Lebon on the mic)
Alright, 24/7, all night (all night)
When do you make wheat? Tomorrow (yep)
I'm Jimmy Iovine bro (yep)
Without the styles where do you go? Goodbye
God gave me the flow, he said 'go (go, go, go)
I do not know how
You don't know what
You know it well
That you are not what
You can make foam
You're a soda girl
A slap on the head when you're posing (pshh)
Music is a drug (hey)
And I always have the best one
Moment, moment, moment
I rock anyway and the microphone is off
I sing and you can't hear the accent
And you don't hear the jungle until I turn it on
Well done, take the bulldozers against the blacks and the Vatussi
I swear I can't do it like you do (yeah)
I should sell envelopes at Russian weddings
And be in the red like the Tunes (wooo!)
Life as an artist is sad, especially if you live in Italy
How to get a flat earther pregnant and raise her kids in Australia
It's like a prison, they condemned you
You want an hour of air, but conditioned
Out of the box forever @ombrabrontok 🇮🇹 @kattywompuss @bigbonzo @cumpletelyhappythesecond 🤪😜
We are us, we don't change anything (Ah!)
Esagono (Hexagon) (feat. Salmo) by Gemitaiz, MadMan,
#anyways 🤪#hehe 😜#Salmo#gemitaiz#MadMan#italian rap#SwaG#8/2024#gif mood board#gif moodboard#moodboard#fuck off#fuckit#x-heesy#fucking favorite#now playing#music#music and art#spotify

Okay but what happens when he reaches 15,000 followers? 20,000? 50,000??
What happens if he actually reaches 100,000 followers?
Part 1: 🔥 Derek goes from a jock to a food challenge streamer
Part 2 Below:
15,000 Followers
You've never seen anyone who has eaten as much before- Derek's got to be in a hall of fame for gainers somewhere. "I-I'm sho full ...*schlop*... b-but'sh ...*slobber*... I ...*snarf*... can't'sh ...*gnash*... s-shtop eating. ...*slosh*..." Derek has gone from streaming 1 a day to a 24/7 live stream. Donations pour in for his meals and Derek is almost never not eating. It's terribly distracting, you're trying to go about your day knowing that meanwhile, Derek is shoveling pounds of food into his growing body. His followers pitched in to get him a scale that sends his weight straight to the chat - because past 400 Derek has had to bend further and further over to see the number on the scale. Today's number flashes in the corner of the screen: 515 The chat is all speculating how long Derek is going to continue this he's totally ruined I bet he'll quit at 600 He's appetite is going to make him eat until he pops Wonder if he misses his days as an athlete...
You type in your own thoughts: He's going for the gold- this pig is reaching half a ton.
20,000 Followers You've watched this video more often than you care to admit. In the middle of the "Order everything from the McDonalds menu" Derek’s bench finally breaks in the middle of the stream, just as everyone predicted, sending him crashing to the ground, in an undulating wave of fat rolls. Should we call someone? I don't think he'd fit in an ambulance! He's not too fat to get up, is he? Derek groans from his spot on the floor - but the munching sounds let you know he's clearly okay. He tells his phone "Siri, call coach." The phone rings and someone answers, too muffled to be picked up on the stream. "I uh....need some help. Think you and the team could drop by?" In about a half hour, the door is being forced in and four burly football players and their coach, clearly having just come from practice, come rushing in. They all enter Derek's room and stop and stare at the ground where he's currently beached. "Jesus, Hale! What the hell happened to you?" "You need help..." "he's like a thousand pounds, how are we gonna lift him??" "Are we sure he was our Captain? Looks like he ate them!" "On the count of three, boys. One..two..." On the count of three they all hoist Derek into into a standing position. He has to lean on the computer desk for support, giving the chat a perfect view of his triple chins and flabby moobs. "Maybe shed some weight before we're buttering you up to get through doorways, eh, Hale?" "Yes...Coach," Derek wheezes. "Think he looks hungry," another player says, playfully slapping Derek's rear. A second guy laughs and starts pushing his hand into Derek's middle, seeing how far his hand will push into the immense blubbery mass. "We should come back with food..." "Don't enable him," the coach barks. "Extra laps for the team so you all don't end up like this whale!" They all leave and Derek ends the chat - but not before they hear 1 of his teammates say "Love your stream, Captain...." You donate to his funds for a bigger capacity chair - it's the least you can do. 50,000 Followers When Derek restarts his stream a couple of days later, apologizing for the time off, his follower count has risen in his absence and his new weight is flashing 732lbs. Some of it you attribute to the higher quality stream. When the stream starts again, Derek is sitting on a couch, taking up easily 2/3rds of it, belly close to touching the ground as he sits with his legs spread apart- not that it matters with thighs like tree trunks that always end up touching. Now he has studio lights behind him, a long coffee table in front of him covered with food and there is a bar-cart in the corner of the screen filled with sodas and cartons of cream. "This is Jordan and Matt," Derek announces. "They were on my team before I - " "_ got too out of shape and hopelessly obese to play?" "...yes." "But he's still our captain, so anything to help." "Someone has to lug his fatass to bed and bring him food." "And our first job...." they pull out a funnel. Jordan holds it in Derek's mouth, pressing into his belly and highlighting just how ridiculously wide Derek is that his teammate practically sinks into his sea of lard and isn't even a quarter of Derek's size. Matt starts opening cartons of cream and pouring them in one by one as Derek eagerly guzzles it down. "Alright, for every $20 donated we'll pour another carton in this tank of a belly!" The donations to the chat flood in. jock to immobile in 2 years has to be a record what a goddamn blimp I hope these two feed him until he's begging for them to stop he's going to fill out that couch by the end of the year! You chip in $100. It's for a good cause.... 5 quarts of cream will round Derek out nicely....
100,000 Followers
You see Derek's name in a national newspaper and almost choke, thinking you're in very good dream or maybe someone has found your browser history and made an elaborate prank. “Man Set to Break 2 World Records”. His stream hits 100,000 followers and a few million views as everyone turns in to see Derek reach the title of World's Fattest Man at a whopping 1500lbs and his way to accomplish it: One week to eat a million calories. Derek is bedbound, the California King mattress completely hidden by his body, which has become nothing but a shapeless pile of fat rolls and blubber. Even his face is almost indistinguishable from the rest of him. Legs uselessly buried under his belly, only his toes peeking out. You can't remember the last stream you've seen Derek feed himself, not since he's passed 800lbs. There are cameras everywhere - giving the world a 360 view of the nearly 2 ton man, ready to push himself to a new level of gluttony. A team of football players surround him, forming an assembly line to keep the keg attached to his funnel full. You've seen the calorie breakdown of what's in those shake's they're feeding him, each one a staggering 10,000 calories. Derek keeps chugging, only taking the occasional breaks before grunting to his team and they shove the tube back in his mouth. "Last one!" Every one cheers. Derek doesn't even acknowledge it. You know he must feel reaching to burst, more achingly full than he's ever felt in his life - but with so much lard covering his stomach, he doesn't even look full. You wonder if he could handle even more. When the keg is empty, it gets tossed aside and the tube is taken out of Derek's mouth. "That's the record!" Someone shouts. "How do you feel?" It takes Derek several long seconds to answer. Brain stuck in gluttony, mindless and fat-filled making it too hard to form a thought. And it was increasingly hard for him to form words with his lips puckered and pushed together by softball-sized cheeks and his stack of chins. "H-Hungry. …burrRRPP… …PblttFFf…"

Currently thinking about jaskier being suddenly transported to modern era and trying all the new foods. Imagine Jaskier trying bubble tea for the first time, with those little fruit caviar popper things. Jaskier trying monster energy drinks. Jaskier with those cans of aerosol whipped cream. Jaskier with a soda stream. Jaskier eating ramen. The possibilities are endless. I just really need a fic with long lived Geralt and Yenn watching with exasperation as a time travelling jaskier makes his way through a mall food court

Do you like the smell of gasoline? Why or why not? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I hate it. It just doesn't smell good in general to me, and it gives me a headache.
Do you like the color orange? Is it your favorite? I do like orange, but it's not my favorite.
What kind of stuff do you like on your hot dogs? Ketchup and mustard. I can handle a tiny bit of finely diced onions.
What’s the largest animal you’ve ever had as a pet? Probably our old boxer mix named Cali.
Do you own any kind of helmet? No.
Out of everything currently in your refrigerator, what food or drink is your favorite? Mountain Lightning. Mom got a 24 pack and I wish she hadn't, I don't like having soda always available to me.
Were your grandparents present when you were born? Not to my knowledge, they didn't even live in the same state as us.
Do you own any jewelry containing your birthstone? No.
Did you cry when you first watched Titanic? I sure did lol, but I was also in a psych hospital when they let us watch it, so I was ALREADY emotionally compromised. Even without that though, I probably woulda still cried.
Ever kissed someone with a tongue piercing? No, but *I* used to have a tongue ring.
Are your parents divorced? Yes.
If you got kicked out, where would you go? I guess my dad's or Girt's.
If any of your friends got kicked out, would your parents let them stay with you? I think it would depend on how close we are and if they had their own income. Mom can barely get herself and me by.
Would you get your feet tattooed? I think I'm getting ONE foot tattoo, a Silent Hill 4 reference that is a pair of numbers carved into the skin. I'm not certain yet though, I don't tend to like foot tats much.
Do you know people that smoke weed? I'd say this is pretty normal these days, yes. It's not legal here (yet, hopefully one day), but yes.
What is/was your worst subject in school? All types of math.
Do you find it rude when people text when they’re talking to you? Yes.
Ever seen a pregnant woman smoking/drinking? Yes, which I think is dumb as fuck if you actually WANT to deliver a baby, a baby that's healthy.
What’s something you want for your next birthday? I think I'm going to try to convince Mom to let me get a velvet spider... I talked to her about it once and she wasn't for it, BUT she honestly seemed convincable about THAT kind of spider, if I try hard enough lmfao.
Have you ever clogged a public toilet? I don't think so?
Have you ever been followed by a stranger when walking home? Tbh I've never "walked" home anywhere.
Do you own more then 50 different colored eye shadows? Dude I think I own ONE thing of eye shadow.
Do you currently have any medicine in your bag/purse/etc? If so, what kind? Yes, I keep Klonopin in there for anxiety attacks.
What do you like on your pasta/noodles? Sauce, butter, grated cheese, etc.? Spaghetti sauce is a must, I also like meatballs with it.
Do you think it’s wrong to put yourself before others? In what sort of situations? No. You can't care for others if you don't care for yourself. I mean yes, there are different situations, but honestly I don't care enough right now to divulge into different possibilities.
Are you wary of displaying signs of affection for your significant other around adults? Why or why not? No. I've been with him over three years, there's zero embarrassment or hesitance in me loving him.
Have you ever had red velvet cake or carrot cake? Have you ever made either of those? I've had both but made neither myself. Red velvet is one of my favorites.
Has your favorite band/artist ever toured Europe? Literally both of my favorite bands originate from Europe, so obviously lol.
Is the room you’re in carpeted or is it a hard wood floor? Are there any rugs? Carpeted.
What would be worse - going out in public with no bra or no panties? I think this is a personal opinion, but *I'd* be less comfortable without a bra in public. In private, I never wear one, but I'm very large-chested and would be very self-conscious publicly without one.
If you had to change a tire right now, would you know how? Nope.
Would you ever let your child drop out of high school? I don't want children, but if I did have a child and their mental health really, genuinely suffered because of school, I'd let them drop out, but never because they "just wanted" to.
Honestly, do you think that inner beauty is as important as outer beauty? Inner beauty is astronomically more important than what you look like on the outside.
What is something you used to be afraid of, but aren’t anymore? Taking the last person's answer, spiders. I love them now.
Privacy and respect; which is more important to you? You know, I originally answered with respect, but I actually think I'd rather have a right to privacy than you respect me.
Do you pronounce “aunt” like “awnt” or “ant”? "Ant."
Do you find not washing your hands after using the bathroom to be gross? I mean, yes? I think everyone would agree to this.
Are you an official couple with the last person you kissed? Yes.
Looking back, did you ever think you would be where you are now? No, especially if you're talking to child/young teen me. I expected to be so much more.
How old do you think you will be when you finally have kids? I'm not having kids. I wish I was infertile literally now.
Do you think you’ll be married in ten years? I think so.
Does your ex still love/like you? No ex loves/likes me. There's maybe two that I'm sure are indifferent, but I can confidently say one hates me and another doesn't want to associate so I'm sure doesn't like me. Maybe by now he's indifferent, idk.
Are you stubborn? Yes.
Do you tend to hold a grudge? It really depends on our personal relationship.
How many states have you lived in? Only North Carolina.
Who was the last person to hold your hand? Girt.
What do you miss most about your ex? "The" ex, I think I'll always miss that he was a lot more romantic than Girt is. He was, in some ways, better at being a boyfriend by my expectations, but in Girt's defense, Jason also very much lacked in other contexts.
What’s a fact about the last person you kissed? His favorite game is Nier.
How long have you liked the person you like? Confidently, it's been close to three years. I wondered since I was a teenager, but I was never sure, even when we started dating the second time. It took a major, trauma-healing event to be certain.
Have you ever regretted kissing someone? Yes, I did it because I felt like I was supposed to. I had no romantic interest in him.
Are you faster at text messaging or typing on the computer? TYPING, I tend to make typos when texting on a phone. I wonder if it's because of my hand tremors.
Tongue piercings - cute or trashy? I've literally had a tongue piercing and it was my favorite piercing I ever had, I thought it was so damn cute. I only took it out because it was damaging my teeth.
I’ve got to know, who do you prefer: Mario or Luigi? Luigi.
Have you ever changed clothes in a public area (not a dressing room)? In a car.
Yes or no: techno music? I tend to like it.
Have you ever kissed anybody who had a mustache? Not a big one, but yes.
If you were famous do you think you could handle the popularity? Absolutely not.
Do you get on better with funny or serious people? Funny.
Have your friends met the last person you kissed? Some old high school friends have because we went to the same school.
How old is your oldest cousin? Idk.
What if you saw your best friend holding hands with your ex? My boyfriend is my best friend and all but one of my exes are men and he's straight, so what a scene lmao.
Your last relationship, who dumped who? She dumped me. I'm honestly just glad it didn't last, she's not the kind of person I ever SHOULD have dated.
How old were you when you had your first boyfriend/girlfriend? Idk actual age, but I know I was in the 7th grade.
Is your home town nice? No.
Do you consider yourself mature enough to make your own decisions? It's not even a matter of maturity to me, it's me not trusting myself or even just not knowing what I want.
Do you have trouble reading small fonts? Not really, but I do have more trouble than I used to.
Do you know anybody that believes that magic/witchery truly exists? Yes.
Excluding surveys, what is something you waste a lot of time doing? Watching YouTube.
Do you find watching animals in their natural habitat to be exciting & fascinating? YES!!!!!
Of all the decisions you have thus far made in your life, which was the best & which was the worst? Best: letting go of Jason and deciding I could live without him. Worst: I can't think of a single event that REALLY stands out. I could say attempting to kill myself, but it's like... that led to me getting the help I desperately needed. Real healing started THAT month. I can think of awful mistakes I made, but picking one that stands out furthest is hard. A lot of things that caused trouble in my life weren't a choice.
Will you be expecting any company tomorrow? No.
Discarding the fact that they can smell & tend to get dirty a lot, do you like your feet, or feet in general? No, I hate feet, including mine.
What has been your best/favourite Halloween costume? I have no idea.
If you could visit just one European country next week, where would you go? GERMANY
What was the last job interview you went to? For a Food Lion deli. I got the job, which was a massive fuckin' mistake :^)
Have you ever had a meal kit subscription like Hello Fresh? No.
What colour are your nails right now? I don't paint my nails.
Are you good at meditating? No, I can't clear my mind like that and all it causes is anxiety trying to quiet my brain.
Can you do a pull-up? What about a push-up? Absolutely not to both.
Have you ever been fired from a job? Did you think it was fair? No, I've never really worked anywhere long enough for this...
Do you have any furniture from IKEA? I doubt it. Most of the furniture in this house came with it, the previous owner died.
Are you listening to anything now? Yes, "Moskau" by Rammstein.
Do you like to play Jenga? No, it actually stresses me out. I don't like the tension and especially the sound when everything falls.
Do you like gardening? I've never actually tried gardening. In my ideal life, I'd like some with fruits, but realistically, I would never maintain one.
If you have a dog, does it sleep with you? She's Mom's dog, and she sleeps with her or on the living room couch.
Do you like Fresca? It's okay, but low on my list for sodas. My mom used to love them.
Would you rather your middle name be your first? No.
If you get married, who would cook? Look can I be fuckin real, I hate thinking about this lmfao. I don't know how to cook, and Girt's no expert either, but he's better than me. Girt likes meal subscription services though, but he stopped a while ago. Tbfh, I don't even know how he eats now. The most realistic situation of us living together would probably include me cooking easy things, like in an air fryer or microwave; it looks likely I won't be a worker, which Girt has reassured me he's completely fine with, and because he'd be working, it's not like I'm just gonna laze around at the house all day. I have to pull my weight too, so the way things look right now, I'm probably going to be a housewife. Employment hasn't exactly worked for me, but I'm not happy about that at all.
Would you name your child after someone you know? No.
Have you ever been on a cruise? No.
What celebrity do you get told you look like? I've never been compared to a celebrity.
Have you ever taken a Vicodin? I suppose it's possible?
Are you a vegetarian? I had a vegetarian phase, but it's not sustainable for me and my diet. I'm far, far too picky, and if I followed vegetarianism for an extended period, I'd be malnourished.
How many towels do you use after a shower? One.
Would you smoke marijuana if it were legal? No, I'm not interested in smoking anything. I'd try edibles if it was legal here, though. I'm curious how it would affect my anxiety and depression.
Are you easily embarrassed? YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Would you ever flash a cop if you knew you'd get out of a ticket? No.

Blue agave grows in a field in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. Photo by Matt Mawson/Getty Images
Jonathan Drori’s interest in plants stems back to his childhood growing up in southwest London. His family lived within walking distance of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, home to one of the most prestigious and diverse collections of botanicals in the world. His parents would take him and his brother on frequent trips to the gardens, exploring the grounds and discovering new plant species from around the world.
“My father was trained in botany but spent his career as an engineer, while my mother was interested in the aesthetics of plants,” he says. “She would carry a magnifying glass in her purse, and we’d go to Kew every week to look at the individual plants.”
Fast forward several decades and now Drori is a botany expert in his own right, even serving as a trustee at Kew for a stint. He’s built a career as an educator, focusing on conservation, the environment and technology, and is also a prolific author. His 2021 book, Around the World in 80 Plants, follows on the heels of his bestseller, Around the World in 80 Trees, and serves as an illustrative compendium that explains the historical and cultural significance of different plant species, from amaranth to wormwood. Using a map as his guide, he selected a range of plants from around the world, each with an interesting backstory that focuses on the cultural significance and botanical structure of each species.
While Drori's latest book takes a more leisurely pace, for our purposes, here is a quick spin around the globe, through eight standout plants—some of which might be growing in your own backyard.
Kelp (Scotland and the United States)

With its long tangles of sinuous leaves that bend and sway with the ocean waves, kelp (genus Laminaria) is a common sight along the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and is especially prolific in the cold waters lapping up against the Scottish and American coastlines. Kelp forests not only provide ample habitat and nutrition for invertebrates and fish, such as rockfish, crabs and jellyfish, but they also offer a number of important ingredients for us land dwellers, too. Beginning in the 18th century, kelp ash, a residue that’s the result of drying and burning kelp leaves, was used by glassmakers as soda, an ingredient that forces sand to melt at a lower temperature. “Kelp was also a prized source during World War I, and the acetone extracted from it was used to make explosives,” Drori says. Nowadays, kelp is harvested for a much sweeter reason: its alginates (part of the cell walls of brown algae) are one of the key components used to make ice cream.
Wormwood (France)

Wormwood (genus Artemisia), an aromatic herb with silvery leaves and bright yellow buds, is native to Europe and can be found growing in fields throughout the continent, but particularly in France, where it’s used as one of the main ingredients in making absinthe. Although there are different thoughts on who actually invented absinthe, according to one story it's believed that the first person to use wormwood to make absinthe was a woman in Switzerland by the name of Madame Henriod. Called the “green fairy,” absinthe is a liquor that’s been immortalized in pop culture for its supposed psychedelic properties, which have led imbibers to “go mad," Drori says. (Case in point: Artist Vincent Van Gogh lopped off his ear after allegedly partaking in a few too many rounds of the potent tipple.)
Papyrus (Egypt)

During antiquity, wild papyrus (Cyperus papyrus) grew prolifically throughout Egypt, sprouting up along the Nile River and other large bodies of water, reaching heights of 16 feet. The Egyptians were so drawn to the towering plant, with its splayed-out tufts of leaves, that they began harvesting it to eat. “Papyrus swamps were the larder of the day, they were teaming with life,” Drori says. “They didn’t have refrigeration back then, so it was a fantastic source of fresh food.” The Egyptians soon discovered that by drying the soft white pith running through the plant’s thick reeds and weaving them together, they could make paper. Word of this new commodity spread to Europe, and the rest is, well, history.
Vanilla (Madagascar)

Native to Mexico, but now grown predominately in Madagascar, vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) is one of the most expensive spices in the world, fetching $50 or more per pound. And yet there’s good reason behind the hefty markup: Vanilla is also one of the most difficult plants to cultivate. Since it doesn’t self-pollinate, vanilla’s flowering blooms must be pollinated by hand in order for them to produce pods. What’s more, the horn-shaped flowers only bloom for one day, forcing vanilla growers to search plants regularly for new flowers. Once a bloom is found, growers use a pollination technique that’s 200 years old, which involves piercing the hermaphroditic plant’s membrane separating the male and female parts of the flower and squeezing them together to transfer the pollen in what’s called “consummating the marriage.” The steep price tag for the beans has resulted in a black market. However, growers have found a way to thwart thieves. “To prevent people from stealing their beans, farmers will incise a code that identifies themselves and their farm on each pod, similar to ranchers branding their cattle,” Drori says.
Lotus (India)

Designated as the national flower of India, the lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) has been a sacred symbol of the country for thousands of years. These aquatic plants, whose magnificent blooms come in shades of pink, yellow and white, are often seen floating languidly on the surface of ponds, marshes and other slow-moving bodies of water. The lotus is a commonly depicted motif in art as well, in particular amongst Hindus who believe that Brahma, the creator of the universe, emerged from the navel of Lord Vishnu while seated on top of a lotus flower. Not only is the stunning plant cherished for its beauty, but the lotus root is recognized as an important food staple across Indian, Japanese and Chinese cuisines, calling to mind the mild vegetal flavor of artichokes, but with a much more satisfying crunch.
Chrysanthemum (Japan)
Chrysanthemum. magicflute002/Getty Images
Similar in appearance to a cheerleader’s pom poms, chrysanthemums (Chrysanthemums spp.) are some of the showiest plants found in nature. The blooms come in a variety of colors and forms, with some cultivars displaying single or double layers, while others burst with spherical petals. In the United States, chrysanthemums (or simply mums) are most commonly seen during the cooler, autumn months, decorating porches alongside pumpkins and stalks of corn; however, in the Far East, where they originated, they’re a common emblem and can be seen blooming in gardens in the autumnas well as in traditional paintings. These perennials are particularly revered in Japanese culture. “The chrysanthemum is associated with perfection and nobility,” he says. “The Imperial Seal of Japan is a chrysanthemum. It’s also regarded as one of the four ‘noble species’ alongside plum, orchid and bamboo.”
Amaranth (Peru)

Amaranth falls into the category of forgotten grains, since it’s often overshadowed by more readily available whole grains like oats and rye. However, it has gained popularity in recent years thanks to being highly nutritious and a good source of amino acids. In fact, prior to the Spanish Conquest in 1519, amaranth was a staple foodstuff of the Inca and Aztec empires. The Aztecs used the seeds of the scruffy garnet plant for ceremonial purposes, mixing amaranth flour with agave syrup and molding the mixture into figures representing important deities within their culture, such as Tlaloc, the god of rain. Upon seeing this, Spanish conquistadors banned the crop, believing “the practice to be the work of the devil,” Drori says. In modern-day Peru, a popular street snack called turrones is made by popping the seeds—similar to popcorn—and mixing it with agave syrup or molasses in a nod to the Aztecs.
Blue Agave (Mexico)

Blue agave (Agave tequilana) can be found in parts of the southern United States and Central America, but it’s most frequently grown in a sunny swath of rolling hills in Jalisco, a state in the western portion of Mexico. It’s there, in a town called Tequila, where the world’s top distillers make tequila using the piñas (hearts) found at the center of the spiky blue succulents. While the leaves of the blue agave are covered in barbs and inedible, the flowers of the plant are the source of agave syrup, a clear, sticky liquid similar to honey often used to sweeten up margaritas and other drinks. Once fermented, it turns into pulque, a milky alcoholic drink similar to low-octane beer that was originally used by the Aztecs during religious ceremonies. “Drawings of the goddess of fertility, Mayahuel, can be seen in the Aztec culture depicting the deity as a being with 400 breasts dripping with pulque,” Drori says. Today pulquerias serving the drink can be found in cities across Mexico.

𝚂𝚠𝚊𝚐 𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚊𝚌𝚔 𝚊 𝚕𝚊 𝙸𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚢 🇮🇹
Hey
Mixer T, there
PK
I jump on Italian rap like a trampoline
Brother, I've been at it for a while, you scream
She gets wet when I rhyme
To do it better I found the algorithm
The flow weighs one kilo
Like the Migos necklaces
I'll smoke you in one hit
You're a Chilum in the park, I ride it with the widest filter
Then I enter precisely, bro, archery on the sample
When I hear you you're like the wind if I'm turning it around
No, I don't feel like a deaf man sleeping
Bro, I win gold, platinum and silver
With her in the hotel, bro, more stars than Hokuto
I go, straight cash like Coccoluto
Her pussy is Newton's apple
I smoke it whole bro in a minute (wooo!)
We are artists
We seem happy but then we're sad (hey)
We write records (ha!)
These rappers go home then diss us (wooo!)
I have the black box, you a package (ha ha!)
I'm a goal in the final with the heel
With you it's like boxing with the bag
When I hear your music it comes down to me
I don't care if it sounds good or if it sells
We are us and we don't change anything
We are us and we don't change anything
Emme!
I smoke from morning to night, bro
I'm having dinner with my girlfriend
Crazy panther kitten, bro
Guajira Guantanamera
I'm going up the stream
Brother, no, no, I don't have a dick, I have a propeller
His face white, hungry, anemic
Fievel landing in America
Sometimes, sometimes I inhale such a quantity that I pass out
I watch her ass go, they are so high that it seems like they are going up
You're on a pedal toilet
What a toilet, what a rate, with an ass that looks like a hexagon
Maybe it was better if you remained a bachelor
It's getting late, let's talk, I'm running bro!
I'll take a shot of ice cream, bro
Then I smile at you like a triceratops
Wanted flow machine gun, bro (hey)
Matrix change I'm regenerating it (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Die of envy, yes, you are triggered (seh)
Bad language, the beat is eviscerated
The feat is refined, the drink is mixed
What a fucking life, bro, I was a hermit! (em!)
By work, bro, I'm still a rapper
Even though I'm handsome, I'm an influencer
We are us and we don't change anything
We are us and we don't change anything
Ouch, ouch, tremble when you hear Lebon on the mic (Lebon on the mic)
Alright, 24/7, all night (all night)
When do you make wheat? Tomorrow (yep)
I'm Jimmy Iovine bro (yep)
Without the styles where do you go? Goodbye
God gave me the flow, he said 'go (go, go, go)
I do not know how
You don't know what
You know it well
That you are not what
You can make foam
You're a soda girl
A slap on the head when you're posing (pshh)
Music is a drug (hey)
And I always have the best one
Moment, moment, moment
I rock anyway and the microphone is off
I sing and you can't hear the accent
And you don't hear the jungle until I turn it on
Well done, take the bulldozers against the blacks and the Vatussi
I swear I can't do it like you do (yeah)
I should sell envelopes at Russian weddings
And be in the red like the Tunes (wooo!)
Life as an artist is sad, especially if you live in Italy
How to get a flat earther pregnant and raise her kids in Australia
It's like a prison, they condemned you
You want an hour of air, but conditioned
Out of the box forever
We are us, we don't change anything (Ah!)
Esagono (Hexagon) (feat. Salmo) by Gemitaiz, MadMan, Salmo @ombrabrontok @luna---zylum @bigbonzo @boanerges20 @faccaldo 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
