This morning I was struck by the realization that there are precious few websites that allow nsfw content, and fewer still that are platforms I actually want to be on. My work has always been pretty "safe", but I've drawn smut in the past and would like the option to continue doing so in the future.
Anyway, I'm gonna post some art to cohost if anyone wants to follow me there

Do you have any unpopular opinions on Whump?
ah. i have a few, i think
my biggest one would be that is that i kinda believe we have enough “whumpee and whumper are two gay boys uwu”. i’ve seen it enough times and while i get it. it’s a favored trope. the people like it. etc. but guys it’s been done so many times. whumpee is just this white boy who’s gay and sweet and innocent and whumper is also white and hot and gay but evil :((( and that’s it. like that’s the whole plot with whumpee in the basement and tortured. there’s no nuance. or fuckin diversity. if we’re going to be dealing with heavy content such as torture and suffering and how the human mind breaks, the dynamic should be deeper too imo. like they should be just as complicated and human and messy as the actual whump is. i think it’s the archetypes that are just copy and paste that bother me. they’re just roles to fill and that’s it, without any actual thought or character development behind it. characters should be more than what you think your audience wants to see. fuck the audience and complicate your characters. whump is messy and the dynamics should be too.

Investment Options in India: Diversify Your Portfolio in 2024
Tumblr media
Diversification is a fundamental principle of investing, essential for managing risk and optimizing returns. In 2024, as investors navigate an ever-changing economic landscape, diversifying their portfolios becomes even more critical. India, with its vibrant economy, diverse markets, and growth potential, offers a plethora of investment options for both domestic and international investors. In this comprehensive guide, we explore various investment avenues in India in 2024, from traditional options like stocks and real estate to emerging opportunities in startups and alternative assets.
1. Equities: Investing in the Stock Market
Investing in equities remains one of the most popular ways to participate in India's economic growth story. The Indian stock market, represented by indices such as the Nifty 50 and Sensex, offers ample opportunities for investors to capitalize on the country's booming sectors and emerging companies.
- Blue-Chip Stocks: Invest in established companies with a proven track record of performance and stability.
- Mid and Small-Cap Stocks: Explore growth opportunities by investing in mid and small-cap companies with high growth potential.
- Sectoral Funds: Diversify your portfolio by investing in sector-specific mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) targeting industries such as technology, healthcare, and finance.
2. Mutual Funds: Professional Fund Management
Mutual funds provide an excellent avenue for investors to access a diversified portfolio managed by professional fund managers. In India, mutual funds offer a range of options catering to different risk profiles and investment objectives.
- Equity Funds: Invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks, including large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap companies.
- Debt Funds: Generate stable returns by investing in fixed-income securities such as government bonds, corporate bonds, and treasury bills.
- Hybrid Funds: Combine the benefits of equity and debt investments to achieve a balanced risk-return profile.
- Index Funds and ETFs: Track benchmark indices like the Nifty 50 and Sensex at a lower cost compared to actively managed funds.
3. Real Estate: Tangible Assets for Long-Term Growth
Real estate continues to be a popular investment option in India, offering the dual benefits of capital appreciation and rental income. While traditional residential and commercial properties remain attractive, investors can also explore alternative avenues such as real estate investment trusts (REITs) and real estate crowdfunding platforms.
- Residential Properties: Invest in apartments, villas, or plots of land in prime locations with high demand and potential for appreciation.
- Commercial Properties: Generate rental income by investing in office spaces, retail outlets, warehouses, and industrial properties.
- REITs: Gain exposure to a diversified portfolio of income-generating real estate assets without the hassle of direct ownership.
- Real Estate Crowdfunding: Participate in real estate projects through online platforms, pooling funds with other investors to access lucrative opportunities.
4. Startups and Venture Capital: Betting on Innovation and Entrepreneurship
India's startup ecosystem has witnessed exponential growth in recent years, fueled by a wave of innovation, entrepreneurial talent, and supportive government policies. Investing in startups and venture capital funds allows investors to participate in this dynamic ecosystem and potentially earn high returns.
- Angel Investing: Provide early-stage funding to promising startups in exchange for equity ownership, betting on their growth potential.
- Venture Capital Funds: Invest in professionally managed funds that provide capital to startups and emerging companies in exchange for equity stakes.
- Startup Accelerators and Incubators: Partner with organizations that support early-stage startups through mentorship, networking, and access to resources.
5. Alternative Assets: Diversification Beyond Traditional Investments
In addition to stocks, bonds, and real estate, investors can diversify their portfolios further by allocating capital to alternative assets. These assets offer unique risk-return profiles and can act as a hedge against market volatility.
- Gold and Precious Metals: Hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations by investing in physical gold, gold ETFs, or gold savings funds.
- Commodities: Gain exposure to commodities such as crude oil, natural gas, metals, and agricultural products through commodity futures and exchange-traded funds.
- Cryptocurrencies: Explore the emerging asset class of digital currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others, which offer the potential for high returns but come with higher volatility and risk.
Conclusion
Diversifying your investment portfolio is essential for mitigating risk, maximizing returns, and achieving long-term financial goals. In 2024, India offers a myriad of investment options across various asset classes, catering to the preferences and risk profiles of different investors.
Whether you prefer the stability of blue-chip stocks, the growth potential of startups, or the tangible assets of real estate, India provides ample opportunities to diversify your portfolio and capitalize on the country's economic growth story. By carefully assessing your investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizon, you can construct a well-diversified portfolio that withstands market fluctuations and delivers sustainable returns in the years to come.

What with the D&D/WotC OGL fiasco going on right now (google it, I don’t have the inclination to look up a link to something explicable at the moment), I’ve been thinking a lot about the pros and cons of other TTRPG systems, and what might appeal to gamers with different priorities. It’s a hard topic, because there are several reasons why D&D has been the cultural juggernaut it is. Longevity and advertising go a long way, yes, but in the 5E era, one of the things that has influenced a lot of people in my circles to try it is the particular combination of solid direction/format and freedom of imagination. 
It feels a bit like fanfic - it gives us a “canon” to start with, where “canon” is a system of rules, parameters for characters, even stories, if you go with pre-written adventures. You just have to plug your own ideas into it and go from there. D&D makes it easy to start and continue the game, as long as you’re willing to put in the time to understand the rules. And the proliferation of Actual Plays (and other cultural touchstones) has made it that much easier to learn the rules in advance. 
The issue, I think, is finding another system that will give players approximately the same combination of freedom and structure, and can be demonstrated to be flexible enough to tell a wide variety of stories. 
I am a super fan of Powered By the Apocalypse systems, but one of the problems I have with running them is that there aren’t a whole lot of pre-written adventure paths. This makes them somewhat unwelcoming to people who are not used to making up their own stories - there’s some direction in the source books, yes, but they don’t have the same resources as D&D for inspiration and structure - no monster manuals, no pre-written adventures. Once you get into playing a PbtA game, I find the storytelling options to be infinitely more flexible, but for a GM, creating the story beats and enemies from scratch can be incredibly daunting. 
(City of Mist, which is kind of a combination of PbtA and FATE systems, makes it slightly easier with a very solidly built world/city to play in, and lots of adventure hooks within that city. But it’s still a little hard to wrap your brain around sometimes, and leans heavily into the noir flavors. I mean, unless you’re our group of weirdos, but that’s a different story entirely.)
Pathfinder exists on the other end of the spectrum; they’re the one system I know of that has a similar amount of structure to D&D, but from my past experience with their first edition, the rules are a lot crunchier, and involve more math and stat tracking, which does not appeal to a lot of people who have discovered gaming through the more storytelling aspects. This might be improved in their 2E, but I’ve heard mixed reviews of how smoothly 2E plays from various people. It might be worth checking out, but it’s not going to be for everyone.
I’ve played several other systems, but they all seem to fit in a very specific niche - Blades in the Dark is AMAZING, if you want to play heists, it has what feels like exactly the right amount of structure to help you design a story, but it’s not going to work if you want to tell a different type of story. Numenera (and other Monte Cook games) are absolute bangers for cool worldbuilding and atmosphere, but the rules systems can be really difficult to wrap your head around and don’t always feel intuitive even after you’ve been looking at them for a while. Green Ronin’s AGE systems, last time I tried them, leaned a bit on the crunchy/complicated side for my tastes, though they might be worth another look since it’s been a while. The World of Darkness systems are forever favorites for dark urban fantasy style storytelling, and work really well for telling character-driven stories about how power can corrupt, but they’re never going to entirely be for people who want to tell more heroic, uplifting stories. 
And honestly, the biggest issue here is time - even the simplest TTRPG requires an effort investment to learn how to play, and it all depends on whether the people you play with are willing or able to put in that effort, especially if you’re not 100% sure a new system will be right for you. TTRPG community folks can talk all they want about how little effort it takes and how it’s “lazy” to not be willing to learn something new, but that’s the myopia of immersing yourself in one community without getting outside perspectives. In the real world, everyone has limited time and energy, and we can choose what we want to spend that limited energy on. Many people understandably don’t want to spend that energy on a brand new TTRPG system when they already know how to play D&D, or when they’re half-learning already because they watch CR or D20, or listen to TAZ, etc. And if they wanted to free-form RP without rules, they’d probably be doing so already. 
I think it’d be great if people would start to put together resources for learning their favorite systems - YouTube videos about how to play, or links to good Actual Plays, especially short campaigns that can be more easily digested, or other starter resources. And also share any experiences they have with modifying these systems to fit their own needs, how they tell stories, what they’ve found to be the pros and cons of these systems. The current drama may or may not be blown out of proportion - we will see when WotC actually releases the final draft of the new OGL - but considering how to broaden the audience for smaller game systems is a good idea regardless. The easier you can make it, and the more appealing you can make a system look, the more likely people are to check it out. And the more competition other companies/creators can give Hasbro/WotC, the better off everyone will be.

I'm a bit scared about how, despite Noa appearing far less than Ego in the story, so far it's much, much easier to grasp his character than Ego's... Noa's logic and motivation have been well-defined since Chapter 1; his major life events can be deducted from real-world history and his prototypes (cough Lewan cough Zidane cough Les Bleus).
But Ego, despite him being so easy to write as a supporting character in fanfics/comics thanks to his memorable appearance and quirks and trash talk... we actually know nothing about him.
A man without a past is a man without a future... (?)

Everything You Need to Know About Investing
Investing is a vast and intricate world, filled with opportunities, pitfalls, and a plethora of information. Whether you're a seasoned investor or just starting out, there's always something new to learn. Let's dive into the essentials of investing and how you can navigate this financial journey with confidence.
The Foundations of Investing
Before diving deep into the strategies and nuances, it's crucial to understand the basics. Investing is essentially allocating resources, usually money, with the expectation of generating an income or profit. But where do you start?
1. Understanding Your Goals
Every investor has a unique set of objectives. Some might be saving for retirement, while others could be aiming to buy a home or fund their children's education. Knowing your goals will help you tailor your investment strategy accordingly.
2. Risk and Return
There's a fundamental principle in investing: the higher the potential return, the higher the risk. It's essential to assess your risk tolerance and align it with your investment choices. For a deeper dive into risk management, check out Investment Pitfalls Unveiled: How to Avoid Costly Mistakes.
3. Diversification
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Diversifying your investments across different asset classes can help mitigate risk. This strategy is beautifully explained in The Comprehensive Guide to Index Funds: A Powerful Tool for Diversification and Long-term Growth.
The World of E-commerce and Investing
E-commerce has revolutionized the way we shop and invest. With the rise of online platforms, investing has become more accessible than ever. Here's how the e-commerce landscape intertwines with the world of investing:
Retail Trends: The retail industry is ever-evolving, with new trends emerging regularly. For instance, the new retail trends in Qatar offer a comprehensive insight into the changing dynamics of the market.
Online Safety: As online transactions become more prevalent, it's crucial to ensure safety. Learn how to shop online safely to protect your investments and personal information.
The Magic of Customer Experience: In the world of e-commerce, customer experience is king. Dive into the enchanting e-commerce world and discover how it impacts investment decisions.
Cryptocurrency: The New Frontier
The rise of digital currencies, especially Bitcoin, has added a new dimension to investing. With its decentralized nature and potential for high returns, many are drawn to this digital gold. Explore the empowering world of Bitcoin banking and how it's reshaping the financial landscape.
Time: The Investor's Best Friend
Time is a crucial factor in investing. The power of compounding, where your investments earn returns on returns, can lead to exponential growth over time. Delve into the concept of compounding demystified to harness its potential.
In Conclusion
Investing is a journey, filled with learning, growth, and occasional setbacks. But with the right knowledge, tools, and mindset, it can lead to financial freedom and prosperity. As you embark on this journey, remember to stay informed, make informed decisions, and always keep your goals in sight.

Maximize Returns: Top Investments in India for 2024
Tumblr media
In an ever-evolving global economy, diversifying your investment portfolio is paramount for mitigating risk and maximizing returns. India, with its burgeoning economy and diverse sectors, offers a myriad of investment opportunities for savvy investors. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore ten lucrative investment options in India for 2024-
1. Equities:
Investing in Indian equities remains one of the most popular options for both domestic and international investors. The Indian stock market, represented by indices like the Nifty 50 and the Sensex, has consistently delivered impressive returns over the years. Companies across sectors such as IT (Infosys, TCS), banking (HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank), and consumer goods (Hindustan Unilever) offer attractive investment opportunities.
Why Invest in Equities:
- Potential for High Returns: Historically, Indian equities have delivered attractive returns over the long term, outperforming many other asset classes.
- Diversification: Investing in equities allows you to diversify your portfolio across various sectors such as IT, banking, healthcare, and FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods), reducing overall risk.
- Ownership in Profitable Companies: By purchasing shares of companies, investors become partial owners and can benefit from the company's profitability through capital appreciation and dividends.
- Liquidity: The Indian stock market offers high liquidity, allowing investors to buy and sell shares easily, especially in large-cap companies.
Examples of Indian Equities:
- IT Sector: Companies like Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) are global leaders in IT services, benefiting from the digital transformation trend.
- Banking Sector: HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank are among the largest private sector banks in India, known for their robust financial performance and extensive branch networks.
- Consumer Goods Sector: Hindustan Unilever (HUL) is a market leader in the FMCG sector, offering a diverse portfolio of household brands.
Investment Strategies:
- Long-Term Investing: Investing in fundamentally strong companies with solid growth prospects for the long term can yield significant returns.
- Dollar-Cost Averaging: Systematically investing a fixed amount at regular intervals, regardless of market fluctuations, can help reduce the impact of market volatility.
- Research and Analysis: Conduct thorough research, analyze financial statements, and keep abreast of market trends to make informed investment decisions.
Risks Associated:
- Market Volatility: Stock prices can fluctuate due to various factors such as economic conditions, geopolitical events, and company-specific news.
- Sectoral Risks: Concentrated investments in specific sectors expose investors to sectoral risks, such as regulatory changes or technological disruptions.
- Company-Specific Risks: Poor management decisions, competitive pressures, and industry dynamics can affect individual company performance.
2. Mutual Funds:
Mutual funds provide a diversified investment option for those seeking exposure to the Indian market without the hassle of individual stock selection. Equity mutual funds, such as Axis Bluechip Fund and Mirae Asset Large Cap Fund, offer professional management and diversification across various sectors and market caps.
How Mutual Funds Work:
- Professional Management: Mutual funds are managed by professional fund managers who make investment decisions based on the fund's objectives and strategy.
- Diversification: By investing in a variety of securities, mutual funds spread risk and minimize the impact of adverse events on individual investments.
- Access to Different Asset Classes: Mutual funds offer exposure to various asset classes, including equities, fixed income, and commodities, catering to different investment goals and risk profiles.
- Liquidity: Investors can buy and sell mutual fund units at the prevailing Net Asset Value (NAV) on any business day, providing liquidity compared to direct investment in individual securities.
Types of Mutual Funds:
- Debt Funds: Invest in fixed-income securities such as government bonds, corporate bonds, and money market instruments, offering stable returns with lower risk.
- Hybrid Funds: Allocate investments across both equities and debt instruments to balance risk and return. Balanced funds and asset allocation funds are examples of hybrid funds.
- Index Funds: Mirror the performance of a specific market index like the Nifty 50 or the Sensex, providing passive investment options with lower expense ratios.
- Sectoral Funds: Focus on specific sectors such as banking, technology, or healthcare, offering targeted exposure to sectoral trends and opportunities.
Advantages of Investing in Mutual Funds:
- Professional Management: Mutual funds are managed by experienced professionals who conduct research and analysis to optimize returns while managing risks.
- Diversification: Mutual funds invest in a diversified portfolio of securities, reducing the impact of volatility on individual investments.
- Affordability: Investors can start investing in mutual funds with relatively small amounts, making them accessible to a wide range of investors.
- Convenience: Mutual funds offer ease of investment and redemption through online platforms, making them suitable for both novice and experienced investors.
Example Mutual Funds in India:
- Axis Bluechip Fund: A large-cap equity fund that invests in blue-chip companies with a track record of consistent growth and profitability.
- Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund: A mid-cap equity fund that aims to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in emerging companies with strong growth potential.
- SBI Magnum Gilt Fund: A debt fund that primarily invests in government securities, offering stability and regular income with lower risk.
Risks Associated:
- Market Risk: Mutual fund returns are subject to market fluctuations, and investors may experience losses if the market performs poorly.
- Credit Risk: Debt funds are exposed to credit risk, i.e., the risk of default by issuers of debt securities held in the fund's portfolio.
- Liquidity Risk: In certain market conditions, mutual fund units may become illiquid, affecting investors' ability to buy or sell units at desired prices.
3. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs):
REITs have gained traction in India as a means of investing in real estate without directly owning properties. Embassy Office Parks REIT, India's first REIT, provides investors with stable rental income from Grade-A commercial properties across major cities like Bengaluru and Mumbai.
4. Fixed Deposits:
While not as glamorous as equities, fixed deposits (FDs) remain a popular investment avenue due to their safety and predictability. Banks like State Bank of India (SBI) and ICICI Bank offer competitive interest rates on FDs, providing a reliable source of passive income.
5. Gold:
Gold has been a store of value for centuries and continues to be a favored investment option in India. Investors can purchase physical gold in the form of jewelry or coins, or opt for paper gold through Gold Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) like HDFC Gold ETF.
6. Government Bonds:
Government bonds, such as those issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), offer a low-risk investment option with fixed returns. The Government of India Savings Bonds and RBI's Sovereign Gold Bonds are popular choices among risk-averse investors.
7. SIPs (Systematic Investment Plans):
SIPs allow investors to regularly invest small amounts in mutual funds, helping them benefit from rupee cost averaging and the power of compounding. Funds like Aditya Birla Sun Life Equity Fund and SBI Bluechip Fund offer SIP facilities, making investing accessible to all.
8. Initial Public Offerings (IPOs):
Participating in IPOs can be an exciting way to invest in promising companies during their early stages of public listing. Recent IPOs like Paytm and Nykaa have garnered significant attention from investors looking to capitalize on India's growing startup ecosystem.
9. Small Savings Schemes:
The Government of India offers various small savings schemes like Public Provident Fund (PPF), National Savings Certificate (NSC), and Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (SSY), catering to different investment goals and risk appetites.
10. Alternative Investments:
Alternative investments such as peer-to-peer lending platforms, venture capital funds, and cryptocurrency offer opportunities for higher returns albeit with higher risk. Platforms like Faircent and Lending Club enable individuals to lend money directly to borrowers, diversifying their investment portfolio beyond traditional asset classes.
In conclusion, India presents a plethora of investment options catering to investors with varying risk profiles and investment objectives. Whether you're a seasoned investor or a novice looking to enter the market, diversifying your portfolio with Indian investments can provide long-term growth potential and stability in an increasingly uncertain world. It's essential to conduct thorough research and consult with financial advisors before making any investment decisions to ensure they align with your financial goals and risk tolerance. Happy investing!
