🟨 Then n' Now - High Voltage edition ⚡
Yoinking @arcandoria's idea and making one of those before/after post focused on the babies💛 motivated by AND motivating @elvenbeard to do the same 😌🤏
This will be both a VP and Modding journey 👉
▶ December 2020
━ "No mods, we die VP like men!"
AKA open up PhotoMode and get as close as you can to your fav, playing with angles while getting the camera stucks in the surrounding 80% of the time and trying to make the characters look at each others in a "natural" way 👀
▶ early 2021
━ "I learned how to app swap and I cannot be stopped"
I got into modding because/thanks to Mitch 🤠 and the first thing I did was to .app swap him into all of the romance scenes 😩🤏 My BIG MODDER GOAL back then was to have Him and Valentin in the panzer scene, meaning I needed to find a way to:
Swap Valentin into Panam's place
Swap Mitch into V/Player's place
Unlock the camera / have a true free-roam experience
and also remove all of the HUD and green filter
I was just a tiny dude with Big Dreams 👀
▶ first half 2021
━ "I can change clothes now! AKA OOC-fest"
Ugh. JHGFHJGHFJ
Looking back at some of the stuff I did before legit gives me so much icks now 💀 the joy and freedom of being a simp with fresh modding power, you just Do Stuff because You Can! Who cares if the character turns extremly OOC, right? keeping them for the memories 🤭
▶ first half 2021
━ "ReShade? What's a ReShade"
My first month of playing around with Reshade! Everything was way too saturated, too bright or too dark- but it was new and exciting! Experimenting with more swapping, more photomode-posing 🤏
▶ July 2021
━ "the Modding High"
Camera unlocks, Player Replacer, FixSwaps, Bi River trick, Blur Remover, Facial expressions for V, Swap to Everyone... my peak as a modder still to this day ngl
I achieved all I ever wanted, did the mods I needed to be able to smooch Mitch and have my canon panzer scene 🧡 (cannot showcase it here on Tumblr for hornyjail reason)
The "bi river" trick was involving CyberCat, an old save editor software that allowed you to swap V presets! You had to launch the romance scene with River as a fem V, then save at the start of it using the "Save Anytime" mod, edit your save file by swapping in your Male V preset, and Voila~ you had a Masc V in the River scene :D
▶ August 2021
━ "Custom poses Fever"
...and the first true love kisses!
Searching and modding your first poses swaps, then spawning the blorbos in game, timing the expressions and animation correctly and... having them "kiss for real" for the first time 🥺😩 ouugghh IT HITS! It hits so good!
From there, the rest of 2021 was focused on playing around with custom poses and exploring my own canon; giving new canon-compliant appearances to Mitch and Valentin, doing VP comics... also exploring some AUs and doing special occasion outfits, like Halloween!
▶ 2022
━ "I can create my own story"
I focused a lot on my own canon in 2022, via comics and photoset exploring what happens to both Mitch and Valentin's respective past and shared future together
Modding was also a big part of the year! There wasn't any big breakthrough other than the scenerid extract for custom poses, which allowed me to finally use the amazing tender animations from the Judy scene in my boys tent 🤭
▶ 2023
━ "Still here"
There will always be new exciting way of exploring and creating content for my babes- the knowledge of custom made poses allowing us for even more angst, tenderness, passion!
and I'm looking forward to it all 🥺🧡
Those years's been a whole creative journey~ and it's thanks to those two, my blorbos, my beloved stinkies, that I'm the modder and photographer that I am now!
Who knows where they'll take me next 💛😊
#Cyberpunk 2077#Mitch Anderson#Valentin Da Silva#Aldecaldos#OTP: High Voltage#MLM#Screenshot#Virtual Photography#did I cried? Yes. Maybe UHAHUGHUEZHU#focused more on 2021 because that's when my brain unlocked for real#not that I didn't improved in 2022 or this year but it's not the same#also included my modding stuff as well cause I feel like this played a big part in how I appreciate my ship too#My love letter to them Mwah 😩🧡#flame still burning bright so I won't be stopping any time soon 🤏#I'm more focused on modding this year- and also IRL stuff that are outside my control life gotta life yknow#but they both been keeping me sane and made me incredibly more crazy HGFH 😌#long post#fav#then and now

🤩 ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: @mumubrix Hello everyone! It's time to direct the spotlight toward our community members, and today we will get to know better @mumubrix!

"Hi my name is Angel and I’ve been learning photography since January of 2021. Mumubrix is my social media name. Mumu is a Filipino (Tagalog) word for GHOST which is one of my favorite subjects.

I would say that my style is leaning more towards incorporating emotions to my photos. Different kinds of emotions. I also like to add mist, rain, water as much as I can. My favorite subject are animals and spooky minifigs though I am confident to say that I am versatile with my photography. It all depends on my mood.I have a journal where I write my ideas, because I can't draw, and have been building more recently. Building bricks have been such a stress reliever and is a great mental challenge for me. It is great to just build, break it apart and rebuild something else. I get a lot of new ideas from daily experiences, interesting conversations with strangers and just sheer imagination.I also enjoy harsh lights and shadows. I love the shadows, it's art in itself. Being able to learn photography and manipulating light is magic!


This is my basic gear. I cannot live without a tripod, I have the very basic tripod you can find from Amazon and the pocket size for low angle photos. I mainly use this lamp for main light and use a flash and a pocket mist for added "effects". I use a Canon EOS M50 mirrorless camera with a TT artisan macro lens. Everything here stays in my backpack except the tripod and the table lamp. If I want to make something float, I use the instant, the wire and the clamp to hold it, I also use the clamp to hold a piece of cardboard for bouncing the lights. I use the soldering hands if I need more floating pieces or if it’s a but windy outside. I have 2 more led lights that aren’t in this photo but I mainly use it if I take photos indoors.

My #1 challenge is my lack of knowledge about photography, light,compositions. All I have is my story and that's all I needed because I found this great community where people help and teach each other. I was using my phone to take photos before and I really thought they were great but thankfully, the constructive criticisms are there to steer me back to the correct path. Not knowing what looks good to begin with was the first challenge I had to break.

The #2 is my gear. I was learning through tips and tricks from Brickcentral and videos from Four Bricks Tall but there are just some things that a phone camera can't do like achieving that good Depth of field, catching those beautiful misty light and shadows without it looking flat. Or just being able to focus on one subject without having to blur everything in the background using an editing software. That's when I knew I had to upgrade and I'm so happy I did.

And #3 is my fear of getting ignored by the algorithm. I have always been someone to question rules and limitations and that makes me tend to experiment quite a lot. I enjoy creating photos that are not mainstream like Happy Happy photos or character photos. I enjoy creating mysterious ones or emotional ones where real people can relate. I enjoy self-expression. And yet social platforms made me wonder some time ago if I'm doing the right thing, or that maybe I should follow what everyone else is doing so people can like my photos more. In other words, I became a "photo people pleaser". I got burnt out after a month and stopped taking photos. Then I realized that my photography makes me happy, and it should make me happy. Not the other way around.

My goal is to help anyone who is wiling to learn about photography. I have been blessed to be taught so much by this community and would like to return it to the world. I believe that art is innate and it is in everything and that you just have to tap in the right kind of art, the right people to give you good direction and the patience to learn.

For the community: Many thanks for all the patience and the tips, tricks and advice that the mods and everyone else share. Remember that you don't need a lot of things to start, just the willingness to learn and the realization that you can do it too. You just have to keep on practicing, go out and take photos, just go and do it and ask for feedback. You need feedback."
Thank you for accepting our invitation and let the community knows you better!

Mastering the Art of Face Swapping: A Beginner's Trip with Deepswap's PTool
Have you ever wanted toTransport yourself into someone else's shoes—literally? In the digital realm, at least, that's exactly what you can do. Imagine swapping your face with a friend's, or even a celebrity's, seamlessly and effortlessly. It's not just for fun; it's an expression of creativity. This guide is your first step into the world of Deepswap and its incredible PTool, where the line between you and your alter ego blurs.

Step into the Digital Screen
Remember the old days of green screens in front of the TV? The technology was clunky, but it sparked our imaginations. Now, we have tools like Deepswap's PTool that make the process smoother than ever. It's not about complicated software downloads or expensive equipment. All you need is a stable internet connection, a photo, and a bit of curiosity.
Your Gateway to Face Swapping: PTool Explained
Let's talk turkey. What exactly is PTool? It's an online, user-friendly platform that makes face swapping as easy as pie. You upload a photo, choose a target face, and voilà! The AI does the heavy lifting. But before you jump in, take a moment to consider the image you're using. Make sure it's one you have the rights to play around with. We're all about creativity, but we've got to respect copyright laws, too.
Permission Granted: Navigating NSFW Mode
Now, for those who are comfortable pushing the envelope, PTool has an NSFW mode. This isn't your everyday swap; it's for the adults in the room who want to explore a bit more freely. Just a heads-up: use this feature responsibly. It's a tool for fun, not for misuse.
Your First Swap: A How-To Breakdown
Ready to get your hands dirty? Here's how to make your first swap:
Head over to Deepswap's PTool website.
Click on 'Get Started' and follow the prompts to upload your photo.
Choose the face you want to swap with. It could be a friend, a family member, or even a historical figure—get creative!
Sit back and watch PTool work its magic. The AI is surprisingly intuitive and accurate.
The Fine Art of Face Swapping
It's not just about the technical side. There's an art to creating swaps that are both convincing and entertaining. Consider the angle of the face, the lighting, and the expression. All these elements play into how realistic the final product will be. PTool does its best, but your input is just as crucial.
Beyond the Surface: Creative Uses for Face Swapping
Sure, swapping faces can be a hilarious party trick, but it's also a powerful tool for content creators. From social media influencers to educators, there are countless ways to use this technology. You could create a series of videos where you explore different personas, or perhaps illustrate historical events in a more engaging way. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
Learning the Ropes: Tips for New Users
As a beginner, you might be forgiven for making a few swaps that don't hit the mark. That's part of the learning curve. However, there are some tips that can help you along the way:
Start with photos with clear, front-facing profiles.
Pay attention to the resolution of the images you use. Higher quality photos lead to better swaps.
Experiment with different faces to see what works best with your photo.
A Final Word on Digital Expression
In the age of social media, where filters and edits are the norm, face swapping with PTool offers a unique way to express yourself. It's a blend of technology and creativity that opens up new avenues for communication and fun. Whether you're looking to entertain your friends or make a statement with your content, Deepswap's PTool is a valuable addition to your digital toolkit.
So, what are you waiting for? Explore into the world of face swapping and let your creativity run wild. Who knows, you might just find a new passion in the process.

Learn this 1 WEIRD trick!
One of the weirder tricks I ever got from a therapist was a sort of instinct trigger facial analysis. As a sort of conscious way to make yourself do a gut check on someone.
And I do weirdly still do it for any therapist I consider seeing. Others as well upon occasion.
So I'll go find their official glamour shot and put it into a some kind of image editing software.

And I'll note my first impressions like, nice smile, leans into left side, kind of back and maybe a little defensive on right. Chosen to display as efficient, utilitarian instead of fancy or slovenly. Not necessarily just one of the regular folk but also not trying to put herself in a superior position. She is business appropriate professional but relaxed as that allows.
And then I divide up the face to sort of burrow in.

So, I'll start at the bottom and go counterclockwise spiral.
I notice that the smile seems to really shine in isolation. She feels pretty friendly.
look over to the right and now she seems intense, focused, it feels like her brain is ON which makes me feel a little uncomfortable with the intensity but also like she's not going to miss a trick which is good.
Up top and both eyes together feels a little more gentle. Intellectual (possibly from the glasses) but compassionate with it.
Drop to the right and she looks playful if anything. She gives me the feeling of enjoying life. The sort of person whose presence might be pretty enjoyable.
Swing past the bottom and out to the bottom right and it's still got a little of that playfulness in the intensity for me. Like she won't take it too, too seriously, she feels willing to back up and laugh if it gets TOO intense which is comforting to me.
Up to the top right and, yeah, on, perceptive, she's actually, actively LOOKING rather than just being there for the camera.
Top left corner and yeah, it's ok, she feels engaged, not like I'm a bug under a microscope. Interested rather than finding me an interesting specimen or something like that.
Bottom left, and that feels like pure playful friendliness. She feels very open and safe in that corner.
And finally I'll go back to the whole picture and remember that my first impression was that simple she is leaning into the left, what I am perceiving as her friendly, engaged, welcoming, even playful side. So I'm feeling like that may be her dominant way of looking at things while the sort of height of the right shoulder is her defensive reaction - she goes intellectual when things go wrong. Which reflects on her outfit choice, she's balancing these two forces. She wants to be friendly and leans in as much as she can but is also aware that things are expected and that there are certain things that must be done for whatever reason and she'll modify her instinctual behavior for engagement with logical detachment.
The most important thing to remember at this point is that NONE of this is true.
This is purely my bias and gut feeling based on extremely little information. All I have is a name, picture, and vague context (therapist). She might be radically different than I imagine her. It's extremely probable that I am not miraculously correct about her deep inner nature just by looking at a photo on a website.
AND we do this sort of thing ALL the time.
This is the underlying basis of bias, discrimination, racism, etc. Our subconscious immediately makes up bs stories about people we see.
We then delete those assumptions (ideally) as new information comes in.
The two major differences here is (1) the artificial oddity of how I am doing it so that (2) I am doing it in a slow conscious fashion rather than a lightning quick unconscious one.
I'm examining my instincts more, rather than less, and that is probably a lot less information than my subconscious is deciding to work with and probably nowhere near as efficient. However, it's a good bet that we're reaching the same conclusion.
My gut is telling me, yeah, she's probably someone who it is safe to risk contacting and seeing if we mesh because so little is giving me warning signs that I can at least suspect I'm not going to sabotage the relationship out the gate by distrust. Her still feeling a little friend-shaped after all that uncomfortable staring at features in isolation is probably a good indication that something about her triggers some connection with something I like, even if I'll never figure out exactly what that is.
And I'll also pass on that if you do this a lot, you'll start to notice a lot more people than you would think don't feel very good or positive when you do this with them. The weirdness of the process tends to make people feel weird and uncomfortable and dangerous. I suspect it is biased by the process toward distrust though it is hard to say because I certainly do have trust ISSUES. But the flip side of that is that when someone passes as ok, I feel much better about taking the next step.
So... I figured I would pass it on.
Again, no truth or fact in it. This is pure assumption and imagination work. There is Ø EXTERNAL validity. It isn't really about them. It's about the perceptions and assumptions that I am having so I can look at them clearly.
Just something that occasionally helps me move forward when I'm not sure about doing so because I am feeling frightened of what can go wrong between me and someone. It makes me feel calmer and safer and like it is possible instead of overwhelming anxiety.
I was making this one anyway, since I'm thinking about making an initial consult with her and am reluctant to get the treatment she provides. But the positive perceptions I'm getting are telling me that I am more FOR seeing her than I am AGAINST seeing her, whatever the actual reasons. Which is good to know. It lets me say, hey, I should take that next step, it'll be ok.
Maybe it might help you too if you have trouble with checking your nervous gut like I do. Let you bring your feelings more clearly front and center. Can also help you identify oddly recurring biases you can't otherwise explain. So I offer it on.

Resound
At the beginning there was a lot of uncertainty for the resound. It was confusing because It didn’t specify whether to add to the music and make it a full experience or make a new experience without the music. There wasn’t a clear take of what needed to be and was admittedly put on the backburner. Personally it felt more clear for the documentary because it had strictly the bounds of the project and ironically allowed for creativity. With this project, there couldn’t be seen with the visual elements while making the sounds up until editing software. The first task of the resound was the iron man fight,the purpose of that was to learn how to use adobe premiere. It was the easiest to learn from there, but everything else was quite difficult to work; which will be in a separate post. In one module we learnt that documentaries would fake sounds for an animal to give an illusion for reality. In the homework it was to find a unique sound. So I used my lander to fake fire and we would draw pictures of what was happening. I only used one of the tricks with hands for the feet running on the ground. So coming back to why I had picked this clip, it was because of the inspirations from one other module, on how sounds make a clip feel completely different from the whooping gangnam style. Perhaps it was too ambitious to do because of the other things that weren’t considered in the video, like the other small details. Though a lot more focus was on the other project. The music video that I picked and done does feel underwhelming because more attention was placed onto the other project. It got more feedback for this one than it did the other. What could have been done is found ways of making the experience more interesting to make of it. What I liked about doing the res sound was adding sounds that weren’t there before. Though I could’ve gotten creative and strange with the sounds of walking or found ways of making the experience more enriching like I did with the other projects. It wasn’t because of time management, or the planning that was the issue. It was a lack of clear structure from what I was doing, and when most projects come in. It's hard finding a balance of putting attention into one thing and as a result needs more improvement.

“Your trademark ready-to-go-home face,” she giggled. “You tired?”
“Just a little,” you whispered, head resting on her shoulder, feet hanging off the bed. “Had a long day at rehearsal.”
“Ah,” she nodded. “Well, if you wanna go, we can go. I’ll walk you home.”
“No,” you shook your head, and placed your hand on her arm. “It’s fine. I’m having a good time.”
Soft music played through the small speakers on Jonathan’s desk, mixing in with the chatter of your friends. Everyone sat in different spaces around the room, some on the desk, some on John’s bed, and you and Claire rested on his roommate’s bed. Open solo cups of beer were scattered amongst the room. It was calm, chill, and then the door swung open.
“Yoooooo!” The entering voice rang, instantly earning a happy response from Johnathan, who hopped off his bed and ran towards the entrance.
“Gube!” John exclaimed, arms open wide to embrace his friend. He always got a little touchy-feely when he was tipsy. “Where the hell you been, man?”
“Consider my good time ruined,” you murmured to Claire.
“Be nice, [y/n],” she responded, patting your leg. “Everyone’s having a nice time, don’t start anything.”
“Me? Me? I don’t start anything, I never start anything. It’s him who starts it. That di—“
“Hey, [y/n],” Matthew greeted, taking a seat beside John. “Hey, Claire.”
“Hey, Gube,” Claire smiled. She gave you a gentle nudge with her elbow.
You rolled your eyes, “Hi, Matthew,” you reluctantly replied, refusing to make eye contact.
“Aw, c’mon, that’s all I get?” Matthew teased. “What’s wrong, sleeping beauty? You tired?”
“Oh, you have no idea,” you told him, finally looking over at him. He wore a white polo, paired with a busted pair of jeans and white converse with his mismatched socks poking out. On his chest sat his trademark gold chain, the medallion set in the center of his sternum.
“Might be past your bedtime,” he shrugged. “Really. Might be better if you just left.”
“Me?” You scoffed. “Why don’t you leave? We were perfectly fine before you got here.”
“Oh, God,” someone groaned. “Here they go.”
“John wants me here. I’m a little more fun than someone who falls asleep mid-conversation, so I can see why.”
“Matthew, why are you talking to me? Can you just pretend,” you waved your arms around. “Pretend there’s a wall here.”
“Don’t mind her,” Claire interjected. “She’s crabby because she hasn’t started editing her project yet.”
You gasped, “Why would you just announce that, Claire? I didn’t wanna be reminded of that.”
“[y/n], you’re gonna be fucked if you don’t get that shit done. It’s due next week.” Another friend told you.
You groaned, “Yes. I know that. But I’ve been killing myself practicing for the show every night. And when I finally sat down to start editing, I didn’t know how to work the damn software!”
“You don’t know how to work EasyEdit?”
“No,” you sighed. “I missed class that day. I tried to learn on YouTube, and that confused me even more. So, I have since then given up.”
“Hm,” John hummed. “You know who’s really good with EasyEdit?”
“Who?”
“Gube,” John answered. This prompted Matthew to lift his head up at astronomical speed, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “He taught me how to use it. He could help you, [y/n].”
“John...” Claire said.
“What, Claire?” John replied. “[y/n] needs help and Gube can help. I’m just saying.”
You cut your eyes over to Matthew, who was watching you, but he quickly turned away when you made eye contact.
“You’re not clever,” Claire shook her head. “You’re nosey is what you are.”
“Nosey?” You pipped, tapping Claire’s arm. “What do you mean nosey?”
“I mean, if you and Gube just...” John said. “I’m gonna say it - fucked - one good time, the two of you could get over this whole rivalry already.”
“And stop arguing all the damn time,” someone added. “The shit’s annoying.”
Your jaw had been dropped since the word ‘fucked’ was uttered. You looked up at Claire who gave you a sympathetic smile.
“I-“ You stuttered. “I...never say that again, John! Ever. Ew!”
“Ew?” Matthew exclaimed. “You’d be lucky if I tossed you a bone.”
Your jaw dropped even lower, stunned by Matthew’s words. “You arrogant son of a bitch,” you muttered. “And this is who you want me to allow near my final project?” You directed at John.
“Hey, if you don’t wanna fuck me, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?” Matthew taunted, biting his lip and tilting his head.
“No. I don’t wanna fuck you! I also don’t want to spend any more time with you than I absolutely have to. So I will learn EasyEdit by myself.”
“Okay,” Matthew shrugged. “You’re not gonna figure that shit out in time, but fine, princess. Be stubborn.”
You rolled your eyes at him, shaking your head in annoyance.
“[y/n], let Gube help,” Claire said. “You’re gonna drive yourself insane with that and the show coming up, plus finals? Just this once.”
You looked over at Matthew, instantly getting angry again. Hate is a strong word. It’s a very, very strong word. And you’d never use it against anybody. Ever. Except Matthew Gubler. That may sound a bit dramatic, so to clear up any confusion, here’s a composite list of every asshole, dick, bastard, bitch-ass move he’s made in one semester:
1. Broke your editing equipment trying to do magic tricks in class.
2. Didn’t apologize.
3. Called your last documentary “uninspired, dry, a little like a lullaby.”
4. Took the last spot for an internship over Christmas break.
5. Which he knew you wanted.
6. Refused to partner with you on a final project because “you can’t even get to class everyday.”
7. In front of everyone because he’s a jackass.
8. Told you that you were insane for majoring in film making AND ballet.
9. Proceeded to tell you that you look better in a leotard than a suit.
10. Fucked your roommate.
11. While you were in the room.
12. Insisted that Wes Craven is a better horror director than Tim Burton? Is he dumb?
13. Calls you ballerina barbie, short stack, princess, anything other than your actual name.
14. Won’t drop dead.
And, because you’re not going to let anyone treat you that way, here’s a list of things you’ve done in retaliation:
1. “Accidentally” stepped on his canvas.
2. 3 times.
3. Uploaded a video of you calling him a dick in place of his documentary.
4. Yes, he did play it for the class on accident.
5. Told him you didn’t want to be his partner anyway since he walks around stoned 24/7.
6. Laughed.
7. Told him he’d be a good ballerina. His tiny dick would fit perfectly in a leotard.
8. Fucked his friend. While said friend was supposed to help Matthew with his project.
9. Told him none of Edgar Allan Poe’s work was actually interesting enough for screen time. (He almost passed out, he got so mad.)
10. Told him his mismatch socks were dumb.
11. Consistently call him asshole, dick, jackass, or just Matthew. All synonyms.
12. Refuse to let him mess with you.
So, the idea of him helping you with your project, coming into your room, bothering you for hours on end, was a ridiculous thought. You should punch John for even mentioning it. Except. It wasn’t a bad idea.
“Hey, pants stay on,” Matthew said, giving you a smirk. “Boy Scouts honor.”
Everyone was looking at you. It made you queasy. Annoyed. Angry. And you couldn’t take it. So, you sighed heavily and cut your eyes towards Matthew. “Fine,” you grimaced. “Fine. Monday night. You will teach me how to use EasyEdit. And then we can all drop this.”
“Ah, success,” John cheered. “I’m not worried, though. Look at [y/n], she’s so innocent. She looks like she belongs on top of a Christmas tree. She does ballet for crying out loud. I doubt fucking is on her to-do list.”
“And on that note,” you pushed yourself off the bed. “I’m going to my room. Goodnight.”
Your room was just down the hall, and you showered, changed, brushed your teeth and got into bed in all of 30 minutes. Just about to fall asleep, you were disturbed by the sound of keys jingling in the door. Sloppy footsteps stumbled into the room, accompanied by silly giggles.
Thinking you were asleep, your roommate admired your sleeping frame, “Awwww,” she cooed. “Precious, precious, [y/n].” She walked over to you and rubbed your shoulder.
“You’re crazy to not wanna fuck Matthew,” she whispered, chuckling. “You don’t know what you’re missing, kid.”
And you stayed still, silent, pretended to snore. All while Claire crawled into her bed.
When Monday rolled around, you spent the entire day with a chip on your shoulder. Claire kissed the top of your head and insisted you’d be fine, that your project would be done by the end of the night and you’d be grateful for Matthew’s help. But she knew that was a dead cause in her heart of hearts. You both knew it’d be a miracle if Matthew and you made it through 15 minutes of editing.
When she left to go to a friend’s place, you changed into pajama pants, combined with a cozy cropped button sweater. You sat at your desk, and waited. You’d told Matthew to arrive at 7.
He got there at 7:59.
By then, you were laying in bed, pissed and upset that you’d actually been convinced to give Matthew a chance. He knocked on the door, and you answered with an attitude. “Go home, Matthew.”
“Don’t be like that, short stack,” he sighed, following you as you stomped into the room. “I got caught up. I’m sorry.”
“Yeah? What’d you get caught up with? A gram?” You spit.
He laughed, “Haha, so funny. No, I was not getting high. I was working on my own project. That I finished. Ahead of time. Can you relate, [y/n]?”
“Get out of my room,” you scoffed. “I asked you for one thing. One. And you couldn't even do that. You knew how important this project was to me, and you didn’t give a fuck. I wasted time waiting for you that I could’ve been working or rehearsing! I—Are you listening?”
Matthew’s eyes had been concentrated solely on your chest, “Are you wearing a bra?” He asked.
You took a step back, stunned, blinking rapidly as you searched around the room. “I’m sorry,” you said. “I’m just trying to find where the hell that came from?”
“It came from that itty bitty shirt you’re wearing,” he replied with a shrug. “Doesn’t really leave much to the imagination.”
“Stop staring at my tits!” You shouted, face turning red. “God, Matthew, I can’t stand to look at you right now. Just, leave. Please.”
He did not stop staring at your tits. Not for a very long time. But when he did, he had this look in his eyes. Like a wire had snapped. And he kissed you. Cupped your face in his hands, pulled you close, and kissed you. You pressed your hands against his chest, face contorting in shock and confusion.
You pushed him away, lips retracting with a sharp smacking noise. Saliva dripped from your lips, and you stood there, huffing and puffing like the two of you had just run a mile. “What the hell was that?” You snapped, your fingertips lightly touching your bottom lip.
He didn’t reply. He was just as speechless as you were. Speechless, and confused, and out of breath, and so, so pretty. He was so pretty. Has he always been that pretty?
You grabbed onto the hem of his shirt and pulled him back in, pressing your lips together in an aggressive collision. Matthew’s hand gripped onto your hair, his body pushing itself against yours in an eager attempt to get as close to you as possible. His other hand made its way to your waist, gripping onto your skin so hard, his nails left marks. Both his hands began to snake down your body, landing on the back of your thighs.
Very suddenly, Matthew scooped you up in his arms, yanking your feet off of the ground. You let out a breathy ‘oof’ as you found yourself perched in his grasp, your legs wrapped around his torso, your hands on his shoulders. He supported your weight so easily, all while sliding his tongue into your mouth.
He carried you over to your bed, where he abruptly dropped you onto the mattress, and looked down at you with a lustful grin. Standing beside the bed, he leaned in as if he was going to kiss you — slowly, with his hands reaching out to touch your body — but he didn’t. Instead, he placed his hands on your ribs and pushed your sweater up, over your breasts to reveal your chest.
“I knew it,” he whispered. “I knew you weren’t wearing a bra.”
Your breath caught in your throat, before you released it shakily. His lips wrapped around your nipple, wetting it with his tongue and applying light suction. A soft moan left your mouth, and you gripped onto his hair in ecstasy. He couldn’t stop himself from smiling. He sucked harder, to the point of pain, just to hear you make some noise. Any noise. When one nipple began to pulse between his lips, he moved to the other, leaving a trail of love bites between them.
The heat between your legs was suffocating, and you rubbed your thighs together for some relief. Matthew noticed this, and proceeded to stick his hands down your pants, fingers sliding underneath the band of your underwear. He smirked at how soaked you were already and rubbed your clit as he licked a trail up to your neck. You tightened your thighs around his hand, gasping at the friction and pulling at the bedsheets.
The sound caused Matthew to take in a sharp breath of air. His cock was pressed against the zipper of his jeans, and was getting to the point that it was excruciating. So, as he massaged your nerve, he undid his pants and pushed them down his legs.
He nibbled on your ear, and as you gave him a quiet moan, your eyes flickered down to look between your bodies. Flushed, and horny, and suddenly so desperate, you grabbed onto Matthew’s large erection and pressed the tip against your clit.
He grunted and pulled back to stare you in the eye, a sly grin creeping onto his face. He laughed, “I knew it. I fucking knew it. Innocent? Innocent, my ass.”
As you rolled your eyes at him, he kissed your lips softly, hands holding onto your thighs. You positioned his cock at your entranced and allowed him to press into you. He stood up straight, watching his cock disappear inside you, slowly, steadily, before he suddenly slammed into you. The sound of skin colliding on skin mixed in with your and Matthew’s moans, and he watched your head roll back in pleasure.
He licked his lips, smirking. And he did it again. And again. And again. Pulling out all the way and pushing back into you. Hard. The sensation struck your chest, and elicited vulnerable moans from you every time he pounded you. Matthew instantly began to speed his hips up, nails digging into your thighs as he pressed your legs open for him. His used all his strength to fuck you, your head knocking into the wall with every thrust. It was sloppy and messy and you couldn’t stop whimpering. Your eyes were screwed shut, and when you opened them again, the first thing you noticed with his chain. The gold medallion dangled in your face, Matthew’s lips pressed against your cheek.
Absentmindedly, you tangled your fingers in the chain, tugging on it as your volume increased. “Fuck,” you muttered. “Oh, fuck.”
He brought his hand up to your face, placing his thumb on your bottom lip. “Open your mouth,” he ordered, quietly, softly. And you did it without thinking. His thumb slid into your mouth, twirling around your tongue and stifling your moans.
He removed his hand and placed his thumb on your clit, wetting the skin with your own saliva. You let out a loud yelp at the new sensation, and a bubble instantly formed in your stomach.
Oh, no, not Matthew, you thought. Don’t let it be Matthew.
But with his cock and his hips and the way he kissed your neck and rubbed your sensitive nerve all at once. You came, you came with a fit of pornographic moans, trembling and writhing around on the bed.
And it was Matthew — the first guy to make you come. Ever.
He licked his lips as he watched you come undone beneath him, proud of himself — to the point of cockiness. Giving you a few more forceful pumps, he pulled out of you and released himself onto your chest, watching the fluid cover the hickies he’d left there.
He looked angelic on top of you, moaning, panting, swearing under his breath. But the moment he finished, he stepped back, fastened his pants and walked away. You propped yourself up on your elbows, watching him in a daze.
Matthew logged onto your computer, pressed a few buttons and then closed the laptop shut. Then he left.
However, the next day he sent you an email. Your project. Fully and perfectly edited.
Okay. So, that happened. They said it would happen and it happened. Didn’t necessarily make you hate Matthew any less, but it happened. It was good. You hated to admit it. And it was all you could think about. You couldn’t even touch yourself or hold your pillow without thinking of Matthew. It was bad.
Especially, given the fact that after the whole situation, he decided not to talk to you. At all. Not in class, not while hanging out with friends, not even to pick a fight. Complete and utter radio silence. He looked at you enough though. Not while you were looking at him, of course. So, as far as you knew, you were far off of his mind. But life had to go on. You had to focus on school, and on top of that, you were due to perform in NYU’s production of Swan Lake in less than two weeks.
You landed the main role of Odette, meaning for the next two weeks, you had to eat, sleep, breathe ballet. You practiced for hours on end, barely saw your friends, which gave you a good break from seeing Matthew.
Opening night rolled around and you were so nervous, you thought you might puke. Only a freshman, it was a miracle you landed the role in the first place, which meant your performance tonight was a make or break moment. Claire could tell you were sick to your stomach and tried to distract you by taking a bunch of pictures on her phone.
“Smile, pretty girl!” She beamed, the flashing going off in your face as you posed. “[y/n], you’re gonna kill it! I’m so excited! Aren’t you excited?”
“Yeah...” you whispered. “Deathly excited.”
“Aw, poor baby,” she swung her arm around your shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’m gonna be front and center, cheering you on. Just focus on me, okay?”
You smiled and nodded, taking in a deep breath. “Okay.”
Your body was on autopilot out on stage. The movements you’d practiced everyday, for hours and hours on end, just flowed. The lighting in the audience was dark, but you could just barely make out Claire’s figure under the soft hue.
It wasn’t until the finale, when you stood ready for your closing performance, that the lights switched to their full intensity and you noticed a hand resting on Claire’s shoulder. An arm resting behind her head. Someone whispering in her ear, making her laugh.
Matthew.
He was here. He was here and he was with Claire. He was with Claire and he was watching you. And it made your stomach feel weird. But then the music kicked up. So, you had to go. You fell into your dance, your rhythm and for some reason, you could not stop staring at Matthew.
Every twirl, you made him your focal point. Looking at him again, and again, and again. Until the lights went out.
Supporting ballerinas cheered you on as you walked offstage, throwing flowers at your feet and giving you applause. Your instructor marched right up to you, kissed both sides of your face and embraced you. It was a wonderful feeling, but right then, you were drained, emotionally, mentally, physically, you needed some rest.
You locked yourself away in your dressing room, taking a seat in the mirror and beginning to remove your tights. Pressing a makeup wipe to your skin, you jumped, startled by a knock on the door. You rose from your seat and walked to the entrance casually, expecting Claire to greet you.
But you froze, as soon as you opened the door. Eyes glazing over the person in front you, your breath caught in your throat. “Matthew.”
“Hey,” he smiled. He looked you up and down — your naked legs, your breasts poking through the thin material of the leotard. “You...you were amazing tonight.”
“Thank you,” you whispered. “Bye.”
You attempted to close the door on him, but his put his elbow against the frame, stopping it in motion. “Whoa,” he exclaimed, pushing his way into the room. “What the hell is your problem?” He closed the door behind him.
“My problem is that I’m very tired, and still need to change, and greet everyone waiting for me. So, I don’t have time for this.”
“Time for what?” He crossed his arms over his chest.
You ducked your head down, “Nothing. Nothing. You need to leave.”
“Hey, hey, hey, ballerina barbie,” he mocked. “What’s your deal?”
“I don’t have a deal! I have nothing to say to you Matthew. Same way you have nothing to say to me.” You scrunched up your face in a frown.
“I...” he paused, laughing under his breath. “I never said I didn’t have something to tell you. In fact, I’ve been meaning to tell you something.”
You looked up at him — the gel in his hair, his black button down shirt flowing over his belt buckle, his dark eyes, his lips and the way they were pouting just a little. And like a magnet, you found yourself being pulled towards him. You jumped into his arms, hands on his face, and connecting your lips, mouths open, tongues touching.
Matthew held you up, moaning against your lips. “Mm,” you hummed. “Wait, what if someone comes in?”
Matthew thought quickly, hiking you up in his arms and shoving your back against the door. “Well, now they can’t get in, can they?” He mumbled, leaving kisses along your neck.
Your jaw dropped and you started to undo his belt, freeing his cock from his pants. He grunted against your skin as you stroked him, your head leaned back against the door, your chest heaving. You used your other hand to pull your leotard to the side, revealing your throbbing core.
Matthew smirked, letting you guide his dick to your entrance, and pushed his way into you swiftly. You instinctively wrapped your arms around his shoulders, burying your face in his neck to keep yourself quiet. His thrusts were quick, rough, messy. He was much more vocal this time, making no effort to stay silent.
“Fuck,” he moaned in your ear. “F-fuck, I forgot how good your pussy is. Fuck.”
The feeling was mutual. For the past month, you’d be wondering what the hell about Matthew had you so stuck. So fixated on him. And this was it. He filled you up perfectly, could manhandle you however he wanted, and always, always made sure you came.
He fucked you harder when he noticed your orgasm nearing — your quickened breaths, frequent moans and whines, and your legs tightening against his torso. “Oh, my God,” you whimpered.
“Shit, are you gonna come?” He asked. “Good.”
Breathless, speechless, you stared into his eyes helplessly as your body began to crumble. All power left your body and you held onto his shirt for dear life. He gave you a small smile, and flipped his hair out of his face, looking down at his cock. He could pinpoint the exact stroke that did it. The one that sent you into a state of euphoria, sent your eyes rolling back, your body into intense shock.
You let out a long and weakened sigh as the wave washed over you, and Matthew continued to plow into you like nothing was happening.
“It’s so cool how your pussy tightens up when you come,” he chuckled. “It’s hot.”
You rolled your eyes at the sound of his voice, clawing at the back of his neck. His breathing became ragged and hoarse, and he had to pull out of you before he came. He jerked himself off until he exploded onto your clothing. And with you being dressed in all black, his stains stood out perfectly on your costume.
This time, he gave you a kiss on the cheek before he left.
The week after that was finals week. And neither of you could be bothered to reach out. Despite the not-so-subtle confession of bitterness and the very intense orgasms you shared, you and Matthew simply went back to not talking. Your friends thought it was strange, even commented that they missed the bickering. The two of you shrugged in response.
Most of your dorm room was in boxes by the time you finished your last final exam. Claire was slower to pack up than you were, considering she only lived an hour away, but she applauded you for your determination. The day Claire did start packing was the day before you left for the summer. The two of you spent the day getting everything cleared out, cleaned, squared away.
While the two of you sat on your bed, watching Netflix, a knock sounded from your door. Claire hopped up and headed towards the entrance, opening it with a grand smile. “Gube!” She shouted, instantly opening her arms for a hug. Matthew wrapped his arms around her waist and picked her up, carrying her into the room with a smile.
“Are you about to leave?” She asked him, holding onto his arms as he placed her feet back on the ground.
“Yeah, my mom’s here. So, I wanted to stop by and say goodbye,” he nodded.
“Aw, Gube, you softie,” she giggled. “[y/n], come say bye.”
“I can say bye from right here, Claire,” you replied. She gave you a look, and you felt compelled to get off the bed. So you did, you approached them, “Bye, Matthew.”
“Bye, shortcake,” he laughed. “Bye, Claire.” He pulled your roommate into another hug, while you stood there, crossing your arms in annoyance.
Matthew peeked at you over Claire’s shoulder. One hand rubbed her back and the other reached out to you, holding a small note.
Your eyes went wide as you looked at him, then the note, then Claire. You ripped the paper from his hand, and stuffed it into your pocket right away. He smirked at you, and turned his attention back to Claire.
“Hey,” he said to her. “Come back to my place, I want everyone there to show my mom I actually have friends.”
Claire chuckled and nodded, “Okay,” she shrugged. “Let’s go. [y/n], you coming?”
“Uh, no,” you shook your head. “I’m gonna keep packing, but I’ll text you later.”
“Okay,” Claire smiled, and she let Matthew whisk her away.
You sighed, and as soon as the door closed, you pulled the crumpled piece of paper from your pocket. You opened it up to reveal — not a meaningful message, not even a few words. Just one string of numbers, writing in his handwriting:
505.

Last Monday of the Week 2021-07-26
I had to go outside once this week. On the plus side, I'll be able to sign up for vaccinations in a little over a month.
Listening: Ending several of my days this week with Podcast Hours, which was nice, specifically I didn't realize that there were new Anthropocene Reviewed episodes out. John Green does a good show. I introduced my mother to the show and now I hear John Green's voice coming from the other half of the house and that's weird, but it is nice to hear old episodes. I'll recommend an older episode, "Auld Lang Syne"
Oh yeah the podcast app I use got bought by Automaticc so this weird company is slowly buying up everything I use. I should really use AntennaPod since it's open source but I paid for this app before it went Freemium and until it stops doing things I want it to do I'll probably stick with it.
Reading: Mostly studying for a research writing theory test but I've also been browsing some FreeRTOS docs in preparation for a future Making project. In honesty this project doesn't need an RTOS but if I wait until I need an RTOS I'll be waiting forever, no one hires novice RTOS programmers. Plus I would like tools in my arsenal between "Arduino handles everything for me" and "Writing in C directly flipping bits to configure peripherals" because that's all I got right now. I should also learn the STM32 HAL but. another time.
Watching: I am. so bad at video. It's a high-time-investment-low-reward form of entertainment so I often pass it over for reading webcomics or wallowing in apathy. I write these on Sunday night so maybe in between writing this and going to bed I'll watch another Eizouken! episode but don't count on it. [EDIT: got a couple episodes in. This is such a delightful show.]
Playing: Ran a session of a Pathfinder game with my high school friends on Sunday! Good game! Mostly combat focussed but we've cleared the first story arc which is more than I can say for some games I've run in the past. With luck I can actually bring this one to a conclusion.
Making: There's a local Bird Photography competition that closes tomorrow so I spent some time finding some good photos and submitting them. I've already posted some here and there's more to come (plus a few good not-birds I saw on the way), but here's a preview of one. just for Monday readers.

Computers Slot: This week's software pitch is for ImageMagick, specifically the Image To PDF tool. I used it in my past two class tests because they had to be written by hand, scanned, and sent in as PDF's, and I didn't want to haul out my flatbed scanner from storage just for this. I just used the Scanner App on my phone to snap some distortion-corrected jpegs and shuttled them to my PC, where a handy `convert *.jpg test.pdf` gave me a pretty nice PDF file. I think I learned this trick from @thosearentcrimes, because they needed an offline Image To PDF converter for confidential documents.
ImageMagick can do a massive array of file format conversions and transforms including converting a sequence of images to a GIF, really an indispensable tool.

“Should I use InDesign to lay out my books?” - A Passionate Guide
Ok, if you are like me, you recently stumbled upon @armoredsuperheavy‘s brilliant blog about bookbinding and fanfiction, and now you are excited to throw yourself head-first into bookbinding.
This also means that you are about to invest a fair amount of time into figuring out how exactly to lay out books. What you end up getting comfortable with will most likely be what you end up using long term, so it is worthwhile giving it some thought. The question really comes down to this: who's name will you be cursing for the foreseeable future? Adobe? Or Microsoft?
Full disclosure: I only started using InDesign because I was forced to. I worked as an editor at a newspaper, and that was what we used. The beginning was hell. I won’t sugar coat it, it sucks. In the end it was worth it. Once you figure it out, InDesign’s potential far outstrips Microsoft Word (in my opinion).
That encouragement means very little when you open this treacherous program for the first time and see THIS:
“What?! I will literally give you $100 if you guess what all the buttons on the left are for. How the fuck do I make the margins disappear!?”
So, if using InDesign means figuring out what at least one third of the tools on the left are for, lets talk pros and cons.
Let’s get the cons out of the way.
It is expensive. Adobe is not fucking around. This puppy costs 20 bucks a month (Canadian) to RENT. If this is out of your price range, do you still have options? Yes. Do they range in legality? Also yes. I think I could potentially get in trouble for telling you to find your friendly neighborhood torrenting site and steal this software. I will say, outright, that no one should steal software ever. Got it? I would be very upset if someone were to message me for specifics. As you naturally wish to be law-abiding, there is also the quasi-legal option of repeating the 14-day free trial. My friend works at a professional print studio in Russia, and this is the tactic they use: every 14 days they uninstall all of the software from all of the computers, and reinstall it with a new trial. Every 14 days! At a professional operation! My friend hates working there.
It is not initially intuitive. I’ve covered this, but it bears repeating because it is a serious hurdle. Keep in mind, that with time, InDesign becomes more helpful than other software. Now when I use Word I find myself reaching for keyboard shortcuts automatically, and feeling bereft at the lack of my favorite tools. Nonetheless, expect a time commitment up front learning how to harness this glorious and confusing computer program.
It can run kinda slowly, depending on your computer. Up until two months ago, I had the world’s most precarious laptop. I bought it for $200 in 2015. It once took half an hour to restart. Inexplicably, when it got stressed, it would switch to Spanish. It was literally and figuratively falling apart. And yet, it ran InDesign. Granted, it worked slowly. If I asked it to process too many images at once it would panic (again with the Spanish), but for the most part, it worked. If you have a slow computer and are patient, then InDesign will probably work fine on your computer. If you are not willing to suffer, stick to Word.
You will also need Photoshop (sometimes). Part of what makes InDesign glorious is that it is professional software that is designed specifically to work with print and anything text-heavy. I love that about it. It even manages to do some handy things with images! But, inevitably, you will need to learn some Photoshop to punch up your graphics. I have, admittedly, only learned the bare minimum Photoshop in order to feed my InDesign addiction. It was a pain in the butt. For example, inexplicably, Adobe has not standardized keyboard shortcuts across the suite. As with InDesign, now that I’ve learned the tricks, I adore it. But you should go into this knowing that with Adobe, the fun never ends.
Printing signatures is the WORST. Adobe, please explain to me, in front of God and everyone, why the hell you would make this software specifically for laying out books etc. and not include a method of printing signatures?! I’m livid. This is absolutely where Word wins the day. It is almost worth using Word just to print the signatures so nicely and easily. I’m not kidding. Me—a person who has used InDesign professionally—almost wanted to switch software entirely just because of this. Hands down, InDesign’s biggest goof. Despite this crime against bookbinders everywhere, you have options. You can export your design to a PDF and literally print each signature separately (I am fucking livid) or you can complain enough to your friends that they offer to buy you a lovely program called BookletCreator for your birthday. It costs $20 bucks USD and it was worth every penny. However, Adobe, FOR THE AMOUNT THAT YOU CHARGE FOR YOUR PROGRAM, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PURCHASE ANY ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE IN ORDER TO PRINT MY BOOK. Did I mention that I am livid?!
But InDesign must be worth something, right?! Otherwise why would I be writing a long post encouraging people to use it? Let’s talk pros:
The horsepower on this baby will blow your mind. Forget what I just said about printing signatures; imagine using software that was literally made for this. You wanna do a thing? InDesign has got you. Are you a perfectionist? This software was designed by people as pedantic and obsessive as yourself. It gets you. Dream it, google how to do it, and InDesign will deliver. This is really the main reason to use InDesign; it is the professional standard for a reason.
There are so SO many resources available to help you learn. Almost everything I’ve learned about InDesign I learned from Google or YouTube. Honestly, if you have a question, I promise that other people have already asked and answered it. The advantage is that because this software is specifically for laying out books, there is lots of information available specifically about how to do what you want to do. (This may also be true for Word, but I’ll be honest, I only used Word for a book layout once, so I can’t say for certain either way.)
Once you figure it out, InDesign will give you back hours of your life. Things like master page spreads, clipping paths, tint, the eyedropper tool, and the one-hundred-percent adjustable text are just... lifesavers. My experience with Word is limited, so my frustration using it was probably due to my own ineptitude, but honestly, when putting together my thesis, the tears I cried trying to get page numbers to format correctly were some of the most bitter text-related tears I have ever shed. I can take care of the whole operation in InDesign in a matter of minutes. Hours. Of. My. Life. Saved.
This is an actual marketable skill. Ok, bear with me here. I have used InDesign for every single job I have had since I worked at the newspaper. That includes working as a bookkeeper and a kindergarten teacher. Hell, I even made my resume to get those jobs in InDesign. There is no job that I forsee in my future that doesn’t include some form of text-based design. Even when my work has absolutely nothing to do with layout (see: kindergarten teacher) I still found some way to use it. My previous boss was actually so thrilled about my InDesign skills that she had me run a 101 seminar for the other employees. (Did any of them end up using it? I suspect not. Did they look at me strangely for being so enthusiastic about design software? Absolutely.) I’ve even managed to use InDesign to branch out from freelance editing to take on design projects as well. In short: if you learn how to use InDesign, put in on your resume. You will be surprised at how much mileage you get out of it.
With Adobe, the fun never ends. I know I joked about it before, but really, I love seeing what this program has in store for me next. For example, thanks to bookbinding, I discovered that InDesign will do a lot of things that I had previously assumed were the domain of Word, such as spell check. I literally stumbled onto a measuring tool today that I wish existed irl to help me glue my covers together. Part of the beauty of this software being so intricate is that there is always something new you can do. I love learning how to harness a new feature, and then watch my design improve over time. Using this program you really get the feeling that the sky is the limit. Look, just the fact that I’ve now resorted to saccharine platitudes about computer software tells you that InDesign is remarkable. Considering that this program has made me suffer so significantly, I have either seen the face of God, or I have Stockholm syndrome. Take your pick.
TL;DR, at long last:
How complicated would you like to go? Either way, for bookbinding you’ve got to learn to use software in a new way.
Do you just want to get your book laid out reliably with little fuss? Word is for you! Are you interested in delving into the details? Do you have the patience of a saint? Try InDesign!
Both work. Both are good. But you can pry InDesign from my cold dead hands because I adore it.
#Honestly#No shame towards Word or anyone that uses it seriously#Like I said I have little experience actually using it for laying out books#But InDesign is very good.#Bookbinding#fic#fic binding#If people want I can start putting together tutorials about how to do all of this stuff#And all of y'all can learn from my mistakes and hopefully learn faster than I did.#Аня есть что нибудь здесь про тебя#заметишь?#InDesign

Why r u so good at sims😭😱 wcif you're talent 😳❤️
As much as I'd love to say it's pure raw talent and just take the compliment, the truth is that I don't FEEL talented. I think there are a lot of people who are super talented on this site, for whom all these things come naturally, and the rest of us just have to keep working at it.
This is one of the first sims I ever posted on Simblr. I was originally just going to go builds, but then I realized I'm not a very good builder either lmao. It's so easy on a platform like this to look at what everyone is doing and feel bad about what you do and the end results. I remember being so proud of this until I posted it and then looking at what everyone else was doing and feeling totally embarrassed.
And this is far from my first sim.
THIS is one of my earliest recorded sims lmao. I used to play on another computer when I was still a teenager and all those sims are dead and gone, but this is one of the oldest sims pictures I can find.
It's super easy to see where you are and wish you could be better, look at what everyone else is doing and accomplishing and get envious of their skill and talent. But I also know that they've spent a long time working and getting better, improving, learning new software, new tools, new tricks. I think every time I open cas I improve because I try new things, I see what other people are doing and instead of being sad that I'm not as good, I try to take inspiration from them. If every time I open the game I can try one thing to improve, then I'm happy.
And I think it's important to keep that in perspective when you're building any skill. It's not about what other people are doing. I say this when I coach roller derby too that I used to be awful, I used to look at everyone else and wish I could do what they can do. I worked hard as hell, I skated eight hours a week, I practiced in my house, every chance I got. Now people look at me and say what I used to say to others.
If you just keep doing what you do, you're bound to improve. Don't be afraid to make mistakes or post bad edits! I'm definitely not an expert on mastery, but I am pretty good at practicing things, and all I can tell you for certain is that it works.
And that I believe in you!

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6 Torrent
Adobe Lightroom 57 Download Torrent Software
Buying Lightroom used to be simple. All you had to do was buy the full version of the program, and upgrade (if you wished) every time a new version came out. But ever since Adobe announced the Creative Cloud subscription service, photographers have been faced with two choices. You can still go for the standalone version, or you can buy Lightroom as part of a Creative Cloud monthly membership. But how do you know which is the best option for you? Read on to find out.
Photoshop tutorials for beginners to experts. Learn tips and tricks on how to use Photoshop for photo editing, manipulations, designs, and more.

Create incredible images of complex high-contrast scenes. The new HDR Combine dazvaliae combines more recordedimages with different exposure locations in a high dynamic image of a malicious.
Creative Cloud is announced
Adobe’s initial announcement of the Creative Cloud licensing concept was somewhat controversial as the price for a subscription to Photoshop ran at $20 a month (all prices in this article are in US dollars). For photographers who had already purchased the full version of Photoshop this represented a significant price increase. Not only was subscribing more expensive in the long run, compared to upgrading Photoshop regularly, but the license to use the software expired once monthly payments stopped.
There’s little doubt this was a raw deal, but Adobe listened and introduced a new package for photographers – a subscription to both Lightroom and Photoshop CC for $9.99 a month (or $119.88 per year).
Read about this on forums and photography websites and you will still come across a lot of negativity towards the Creative Cloud subscription model, especially from Photoshop users upset at the loss of a perpetual licence. But today, I aim to cut through this negativity and take an objective look at the differences between the two options.
Two types of Lightroom users
To start, we have to acknowledge that there are two types of Lightroom users.
The first uses Lightroom in conjunction with Photoshop and wants access to both programs. For this user, the Creative Cloud option is the only choice if you want the latest version of Photoshop CC. Alternatively, if you own a version of Photoshop CS and are not bothered about upgrading to Photoshop CC, you can buy the standalone version of Lightroom and use them together.
The second type of user carries out the bulk of their image processing in Lightroom. For tasks Lightroom can’t handle, they may use an older version of Photoshop, a less powerful program like Photoshop Elements, or a plug-in such as the Nik Collection or Perfect Photo Suite 9. These users may be wondering whether to continue using the standalone version of the software or to subscribe.
Financial considerations
If you are on a budget, and don’t need Photoshop CC, then it is definitely less expensive to buy the standalone version of Lightroom. At the moment a new version of Lightroom comes out approximately every 18 months. At $9.99 a month, the subscription service would cost you $179.82 over that period. If you are new to Lightroom, the full version (priced at $149 from the Adobe website) saves you money, and if you already own Lightroom, then the upgrade (priced at $79) is even less, saving you a little over $100 over the same time period.
As a standalone version user you get free upgrades until a full new version comes out. So, if you upgraded to Lightroom 5.0 when it first came out, you can upgrade to the latest version (5.7) for free, taking advantage of new features introduced since then. But when Lightroom 6 comes out, you will need to pay the upgrade fee to use it. Upgrading isn’t compulsory, and you can continue to use your earlier version of Lightroom as long as you want.
Adobe have stressed their commitment to continuing the standalone version of Lightroom for the foreseeable future.
Note:The standalone version of Lightroom is a little hard to find on Adobe’s website. You can get there by going to Adobe’s home page and clicking the Menu option at the top. Click the All Products button at the bottom, scroll down to Lightroom and click Buy. Or you can also find it here on Amazon.
What the Creative Cloud subscription gives you
The Creative Cloud subscription is more expensive, so what do you get for that extra money? The two headline features are Photoshop CC, a powerful image editing program that you are likely familiar with, plus access to Lightroom Mobile, a mobile version of Lightroom that works with iPads and iPhones (but not currently with devices using the Android or Windows operating systems).
There are several additional features that may interest some people, such as 2GB of online storage space, access to Lightroom Web and the ability to use Photoshop CC and Lightroom on multiple machines (although not at the same time).
What happens when the Creative Cloud license ends?
If you stop paying your subscription fee you no longer have the right to use the full versions of Photoshop CC and Lightroom. Photoshop will stop working completely (or at least until you renew the subscription).
But Lightroom is different. Bear in mind that with Lightroom your Raw files are untouched. The edits you make are stored in the Catalog. If you lose access to the Catalog, you lose access to all the edits you have made to your images, including all post-processing.
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6 Torrent

Adobe doesn’t want that to happen, so it gives you partial access to Lightroom even if you cancel your Creative Cloud subscription. You have full access to the Library, Book, Print, Slideshow and Web modules. The Develop module is severely restricted (you can’t make any adjustments using the right-hand panels) and there is no access to the Map module.
Your Catalog remains intact, including any Collections you’re created and any changes to metadata, including ratings and keywords. So does your post-processing, and the ability to make basic edits to photo files using the Quick Develop panel. You can also export your photos any time you want.
You need to have Lightroom Version 5.5 or later installed for this to work.

Conclusion
Hopefully you are now clearer about how the two ways of buying Lightroom differ, and which is best for you. If you want to use the most up to date version of Photoshop CC, or Lightroom Mobile, then the Creative Cloud subscription service is the choice for you.

However, if you don’t require the latest version of Photoshop CC, or Lightroom Mobile, then buying the standalone version is the least expensive way to go.
What do you think? Have Adobe got it right with the price and services offered for the Creative Cloud Photography plan? Do you use the Creative Cloud version of Lightroom or the standalone version? Please let us know in the comments.

hi again. curious as to if you have any personal south park headcanons?? (or if youd like to possibly be friends 😐)
Of course we can be friends, all SP pals are welcomed!
I realised I’d never really sat down to think about these so this got long pretty quickly. Also, this is kind of all over the place and some of these are less headcanons and more things I like to think about.
KYLE
He’s pretty booksmart and likes to write short stories, which are closely guarded. He does share them with Stan and Ike, sometimes making them little characters in the stories.
Can play the violin. He learnt using online videos and mostly uses it to play meme songs and megalovania.
Sings really well but is ridiculously shy about it.
Makes PowerPoints for anyone who gets confused on certain subjects and sits through it with them.
Has naturally sharp teeth, nothing too dramatic but it’s fun to think about.
Learns a lot of languages in his free time and teaches Stan what he knows.
STAN
He’s dyslexic? I don’t know, it just seems like a fun thing to explore with him.
He’s really good with video editing software and likes to make stupid videos to laugh about.
Has sound knowledge on cars and can fix basic problems with them pretty easily.
Knows a lot about animals and really likes whales.
Uses open natural spaces to clear his head, often sitting in low tree branches.
Starts going on jogs to improve his stamina (which people call sprints because why does he have to move so fast?!?!).
KENNY
Is really good at skateboard tricks with his great balance.
Likes to do make-up for the girls and Karen, often getting tips from Bebe.
Takes freestyle dance classes and is pretty damn good at it.
Helps Karen make animal shelters for creatures in the area.
Everyone finds it easy to confide in Kenny.
CARTMAN
Eventually, people get fed up of him and leave him alone. He figures he has to be less of an asshole when even Butters cuts off contact.
He mellows out quite a bit and people often forget he’s listening until he chimes in with how much of an idiot they are.
When he puts his mind to it (which is rare) he’s really good at comforting people.
He makes really cool origami.
He starts spending a lot of time reading, favouring detective mysteries.
Keeps a diar- sorry journal to note down things he feels are important.
I like the idea that he and Clyde become step-brothers and he’s a passive but super protective brother!
BUTTERS
When he gets older, he comes out of his shell and is actually really daring (likes skydiving and paragliding).
He can hold his own in a fight, despite his small stature.
Likes that Kenny calls him Leo and other pet names.
Gives ridiculously great advice but only when directly asked for it.
Has a bit of a mean streak to him (from years of being around Cartman). Push him too far and he’ll bring up secrets he has no right to know about you.
He’s a vegetarian but not very strictly, more for the health benefits than anything else. If he wants bacon, he’ll eat bacon.
CRAIG
He doesn’t like people to know when he’s upset, playing the “don’t care” card hard. He’s not fooling anyone.
Makes DIY guinea pig playhouses with Tweek.
He’s a ridiculously good artist and sketches his friends when they’re all in one place.
When he laughs, like really laughs, it’s a godsend and ridiculously contagious.
When left alone with Stan, they have a pretty playful relationship. A bit of roughhousing and bonding over small things.
Runs a small D&D campaign with the guys. Mostly consists of “CLYDE! NO!” and “Those aren’t yours Tweek”.
TWEEK
He has a small garden and likes to grow fruit and veg to use when he’s cooking. Craig keeps eating all the tomatoes.
Can’t be beaten at chess. Not even Kyle can best him. He has fun trying though.
Is fantastic as a strategist for group games.
He always seems to know when something is up with one of the other guys.
Can draw in perfect calligraphy and having something to focus on calms his twitches.
TOKEN
Can drink you under the table. This man is a beast and holds liquor like a keg.
He sings when drunk and is known to hate Katy Perry songs but somehow knows all the words to them. Guess what people get him to sing when he’s fully out of it?
Rarely makes puns but, when he does, they’re golden.
He really likes cats. If he finds a stray, he brings it home and cleans them up before introducing them to the horde in his backyard, that he feeds every morning.
He likes to stay healthy, often going to the gym, so he’s pretty well-built.
CLYDE
He has ADHD. Sitting still for a long time is a pain and he often feels a ridiculous urge to go and do something and can’t focus until its done.
Has a feel-good aura that improves everyone’s mood. Him just sitting there puts a smile on people’s faces.
Contrary to what people think, he has incredibly witty comebacks, often leaving you dumbfounded.
He’s great at bringing Token out of his shell. “You’re allowed to be stupid with us dude!”
He was chubby in childhood but never really grew out of it. More grows into it.
JIMMY
He’s good at convincing people not to do the stupid thing that will get them into a lot of trouble.
He can speak Welsh. He likes the accent and has a lot of good jokes to tell with it.
If you insult him, you will receive a crutch to the face. You were warned.
He’s a gaming maestro and mains druids in the best possible way.
BEBE
Mistress of Mischief. (Her + Kenny and Clyde is an accident waiting to happen).
Will walk into your house, beeline for the kitchen and eat your food. Hellos come after.
If she sees you wearing a bad outfit she’ll give advice then bring you shopping for one that really shines on you.
She sings Broadway songs whilst cleaning. If you hear her belting out Waving Through a Window just put your head down and walk away.
Wanna ask her why she did that? Eyebrow Waggle™.
RED
She’s great at dagger throwing, with a dead steady aim.
I like the AUs where she’s Craig’s cousin. It seems fitting.
She really likes chemistry. DIY smoke bombs are her speciality.
She can stare someone out of a room. Not even glaring, just a discomforting gaze.
NICHOLE
If you need help, she’s there already and probably has a bag full of cookies.
She gets along really well with Clyde and finds it easy to find something to talk about (which is mostly just teasing Token).
She used to date Token but it became awkward and they broke up, both deciding it felt too much like dating a sibling.
You eat her Werther’s Originals, you taste her blade.
She lets Craig style and cut her hair. He has a whole set of hairstylist equipment but no one knows where he got it from or where he keeps it.
WENDY
She likes to have friendly debates with Kyle, loving the new information she learns from him.
Goes to peaceful protests with Stan.
She has the Disapproving Frown™ which stops all schemes in their tracks.
Often seen chasing Bebe around to prevent her ridiculous plans.
Has long conversations with Cartman (post behaviour fix) and they’re really close friends.
I’ll probably come up with more in the future but this is it for now! Thanks for the ask, it was really fun to think about all this.
I have more headcanons for ships and such but those’ll just be for when I’m asked about the ship specifically, don’t wanna make these long posts a regular thing.

Woman On Top (Chapter 2)

Return to Chapter 1.
Return to Table of Contents.
Return to Jungkook Fanfictions.
Return to Masterlist.

Chapter 2
Jungkook was a triple threat actor, singer, dancer and all around “it” guy whose brand was unadulterated natural talent and hot, available celebrity; which is why when he showed up at the same night class as you at the nearby film school, you were a bit taken aback. He was already wealthy and successful, there was no need for him to be there and from what you remembered him telling you he wasn’t particularly studious – granted, there wasn’t really a need for you to be there either.
You took the occasional night class to ensure you were up to date on the latest software and industry changes. Not something most CEOs would do in their free time, but you weren’t most CEOs. How you climbed your way to the top was by being relevant and the last thing you wanted was some young, fresh face straight out of school pulling the rug out from underneath you.
“You inspired me,” he said when he plopped himself down into the chair next to you. He was referencing the first time you two had met some months ago when your company was hired to shoot a commercial for him. In an off hand remark you had mentioned you took the occasional night class. “I want to direct and produce one day, so I thought why not. And hey, now we can be partners.”
Most of the time when you saw him on TV you of coursed noticed how incredibly sexy he was – he was somewhat type-casted to be that figure, but you couldn’t deny that it didn’t work for him. You once saw a film of his with a rather racy sex scene where he ate out the leading lady on the staircase behind some bar. You were pretty sure it was raining in the scene too, but what you remembered most about that film was that it was followed by a good month of touching yourself to that image. But, that on-stage persona of his was only true part of the time. You realized that when you first met but even today it still surprised you. The way he beamed at you now; the way his eyes crinkled, and his nose scrunched up made him seem so much softer and brighter than what he presented to the public; you couldn’t help but smile and giggle back.
That’s how this whole thing started. After weeks of classes, you had finally been assigned a group project. Although nearly each of the 12 other students in the class wanted to of course partner up with Jungkook, he declined insisting that due to both your hectic schedules, you and him should brave the project alone and not be burdens to the other students grades. The rationale was sound, but you couldn’t help but get the impression that what he really wanted was to be alone with you. You brushed the thought aside and scolded yourself for being so ridiculous. Why would someone like him, who could have any organic fed, polished 20-something celebrity between Tokyo and Los Angeles ever been interested in someone nearly a decade his senior. But, alas, your instinct was correct.
The project was focused on night scenes. You were to capture the essence of a dark night – something you would perhaps use if shooting a horror movie. That’s how you and Jungkook ended up in the middle of the night at a rural baseball diamond, sheltered from the world by geography and a thick barrier of forest and foliage. All night he had stood just a little close, his touches lingered, and his gaze held just a little longer than usual.
As you were packing the equipment into the trunk of your car, haphazardly listing off when you two could get together to edit, that’s when he kissed you. You had turned your head to the left to look up at him and was met with his lips crashing against yours. It was clumsy, on both your parts. You weren’t ready for it and he was too nervous. He pulled back after a second or so and looked at you near terrified.
“I’m so sorry,” he began to apologize. “I- I… I didn’t… I’m sorry…” He fumbled trying to say something. That strapping, man in charge figure he played on the silver screen was no where to be found. But this self-conscious, apologetic person in front of you was just so endearing. You wanted to laugh, but instead you found yourself reaching for his face and pulling his lips back down to meet yours.
Second time was better. He was the one frozen in shock this time. When you pulled back the astonished look on his face made butterflies flutter in your belly. But then the look morphed into one of satisfaction and confidence, and you felt the butterflies make their way south.
Your lips met again – third time was the charm. This time his lips moulded themselves around yours perfectly. This time, he parted your lips with his tongue. This time your hands stretched up over his strong shoulders while his made their way around your waist to the small of your back. This time, neither of you pulled back – that is until he hoisted you against the car and began to suck bruises into the flesh of your neck while his hands kneaded roughly at your breasts. Your lips met again sometime later when you were straddled on top of him in the back seat of your car; right before you took his thick, throbbing cock in your hand and guided it into you. The way he groaned when you did will be etched in your memory forever. It was as if he had been in pain and you were the only thing able to remedy him.
You rode him the best you could in the cramped backseat, but the way he swore, panted and moaned, you were confident that it was a pretty good ride.
He called out to God when you had finally made him come. His large, muscular hands gripped tight onto your hips – you were sure you would have been bruised the next day. His hips flexed to the sky and buried his dick far up into you. You grinded yourself into him, guiding him through it and were met with the most delicious sounds of appreciation.
When it was over, he flipped you against the inside of the back door and fucked you with his mouth and hands. It was a little sloppy too, but it was your first time together anyway, and regardless, you had been so turned on by him and the way he looked between your thighs that it did the trick.
The moment you think you enjoyed the most though was when you were both fresh off an orgasm and wrapped around each other. One hand behind his head, he was propped casually against the door. Your body was stretched across the length of his; your breast smooshed against his abs, and your legs a tangled mess. You peered up at him, occasionally drawing your fingers across the sharp features of his face; while his free hand lazily stroked a line up and down your spine.
You were happy. He was happy too.
“I’ve been wanting to do that for a long time,” he said as he lifted a strand of hair off your face.
“Oh yeah?”
“Mmm hmm,” he nodded playfully. “I didn’t think it would happen in a car though. Maybe next time we could do it in a bed?”
“Next time?” He looked a little taken aback at your question. “Do you want there to be a next time?”
“Of course, but… I mean… if you don’t want to…” You could feel his heartbeat begin to race beneath his chest.
“I do want to, Jungkook,” you interrupted. “I just want to know what this all means for you. Is this just sex or are you looking for more?”
“It’s… you know… whatever,” he was a little sheepish.
“Okay. Good. Then let’s keep things light, then,” you said as you traced the line of his jaw.
That was the point in which this arrangement was born. The long discussion of how you two sleeping together would work. What the expectations were; Why it was important to be kept a secret; and, what would happen if one of you started dating someone else.
Time passed and even though you both had taken pauses to pursue other potential relationships, for the most part Jungkook found his way to your bed at any opportunity or any time you called. The mess of your first time together quickly improved as well - Jungkook may have not been the most studious in the classroom, but in the bedroom, he was a valedictorian. Especially after some of the first few times you were together, and he came too quickly. Well – too quickly for his liking. You loved to ride on top of him and challenge yourself to see how fast you could make him come undone. But Jungkook saw his prematurity as a weakness, and as a weakness he could improve. He looked to you for guidance and tips on how to get you off. Everything from foreplay to fucking, he soon learned everything he needed to know to turn you on and play you like a fiddle. He developed a few of your kinks and a few of his own you were more than happy to oblige. Every once in a while, he’d surprise you with a new move. While it was a pleasant gift in the moment, after the fact you’d wonder where he got it; perhaps an adult film he had seen or a magazine he read; or perhaps it was from someone else he was also sleeping with. You’d quickly squash those thoughts, but despite your “no strings attached” relationship, you’d be lying to yourself if you didn’t feel a little jealous at the idea that the man you fucked into shape was sharing it with other women.
But this was a “no strings” deal. That’s what you had wanted all along. It was just sex; he was young; you were old; he was famous and didn’t date publicly (for various reasons why, all of which you understood completely); you were focused on your career and sometimes that meant being his producer.
That was the other factor that kept your arrangement a secret. You had a strict rule – at least prior to Jungkook – about not sleeping with clients, even after whatever project you had been hired for was over. You valued professionalism in your career and you certainly didn’t want the perception that you had slept your way to the top.
That’s what made you and him so perfect. You both had barely any time for a real relationship; you both had to keep it a secret; and, you both were insatiable for each other.
That’s what also made it so sexy. That’s why fucking upstairs at a party was so thrilling. You shouldn’t be sleeping together; and, you couldn’t get caught - but part of you wanted too.
