Calacus Monthly Hit & Miss – Sebastien Haller & Enhanced games february 2024

Every month we look at the best and worst communicators in the sports world from the last few weeks.

HIT - SEBASTIEN HALLER

The late, great Daily Mail sport columnist Ian Wooldridge once wrote: “There are days when sport reaches the sublime heights of unscripted theatre and draws from men and women performers resources of nerve and skill beyond human comprehension.”

The magic of sporting contest is that it can be so unpredictable that it is often said that no one would believe it if you made a movie about what you’ve just witnessed.

This month’s African Cup of Nations (AFCON) certainly fits that description, with striker Sebastien Haller front and centre in the drama.

Ivory Coast, the hosts, looked set to exit the competition after a disastrous group stage, when they lost twice, including a heaviest ever home – and Nations Cup finals – defeat when losing 4-0 to Equatorial Guinea.

Manager Jean-Louis Gasset was promptly sacked, but the team got a reprieve when Zambia failed to get the result they needed to finish above the hosts as a best third-placed side.

Haller had not featured in those first few matches due to an ankle injury, but his comeback is far more dramatic than a typical footballer’s injury.

A former France youth international, Haller made his name at Eintracht Frankfurt before joining Premier League side West Ham for a then club-record fee of £45million in July 2019.

He failed to replicate his Bundesliga form, scoring only 10 goals in a year and a half before moving to Ajax.

Haller twice helped the Dutch giants win the Eredivisie and became only the second player, after one Cristiano Ronaldo, to score in all six of his club’s group-stage Champions League games, and the fourth, with Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski, to reach double figures in the competition’s group phase.

This prompted Borussia Dortmund to sign him to replace Erling Haaland, where his impressive form was stopped in its track by a tragic turn of events.

In July 2022, just two weeks after signing, the forward complained of abdominal discomfort and during a consultation with a urologist, a testicular tumour was discovered.

Haller promptly underwent surgery to remove it and within the week, he had started receiving chemotherapy.

In a Canal+ documentary called ‘Fight’, Haller’s wife Priscilla described the news Haller had a tumour as a “nightmare.”

“When (he) told me on the phone, I didn’t believe it — it’s a joke,” she said. “Until he got upset because he takes the blow and on top of that has to convince me. I understood what it was to be really afraid. I was scared and had the fear of my life.”

Haller was determined to play football again as quickly as possible and had a personal trainer devising tailored exercise programmes for him in hospital.

When Haller attended the Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris with Priscilla, the extent of his illness was clear for all to see, his hair loss as a result of chemotherapy a stark reminder of how gravely unwellhe had been.

Haller was voted the 13th best player in the world for his achievements with Ajax, and also went up on stage to present an award.

He was encouraged by his idol, former Ivory Coast captain and fellow striker Didier Drogba, to provide an update on his condition and said: “Everything is fine. I’m here because everything is going as well as it can. It’s important to be involved at such events to show that you’re strong.”

That turned out not to be the case.

A month after the Paris ceremony, he needed a second, more dangerous procedure, to remove the residual findings from the tumour, which took over four hours.

When Haller was eventually given the all-clear, he flew with his team-mates to Dortmund’s winter training camp in Marbella, telling reporters that “(retiring) was never on my mind.”

On January 10 2023 Haller was greeted with applause from his team-mates, club staff, opposition players and supporters as he finally stepped onto the pitch for the first time in a Dortmund shirt for a friendly against Fortuna Dusseldorf.

“It’s been a dream to play with my team-mates, certainly more fun than doing runs through forests,” he said afterwards.

Two weeks later, he made his official debut for Dortmund, and first competitive appearance since recovering from cancer, coming off the bench in a 4-3 victory over Augsburg.

The words “F*CK CANCER” were inscribed on his boots.

It was fitting that on World Cancer Day, in early February 2023, Haller scored his first goal for Borussia Dortmund, heading into the net against Freiburg in front of 80,000 supporters at Signal Iduna Park and subsequently swamped by a horde of yellow-clad team-mates.

He pointed to that message on his boots as part of his celebration and he said afterwards: “To score today was a great message to everyone who is fighting today or will fight later.

“It gives some hope, some courage. The days after will always be better. You only want to score another goal, to have that feeling again. It’s the best feeling.

“You’re flying. You’re on a cloud. The whole stadium is on fire. Your team-mates, the staff, everyone is as one. It’s a big boost. There’s still a long way to go, but we will walk down that path.

"Of course, you realise it is something really serious that is happening, that a lot of things can change. It's important to tell it straight about cancer.

“But the urologist helped me not to be scared. He said I could heal well. I took all his words for granted.”

With Ivory Coast struggling and scoring just twice in the AFCON group stages, Haller’s recovery from his ankle injury took on added significance.

"After the big defeat against Equatorial Guinea, we had no choice," Haller said.

"We've come back from a long way. There were words, moments, which were not easy for the players, staff and everybody [but] which were necessary."

Haller’s teammate Seko Fofana said that Haller's struggles with health and fitness inspired squad unity, especially after their coach was sacked in the group stage.

"He was a benefit to others in the team, always giving something else to this group," Fofana mused. “[Consequently] we're now a unit, a collective, and we can be very happy about it.”

Losing against defending champions Senegal, Haller was thrown on late in normal time to help save the game, and his perfect through ball to Nicolas Pepe saw the former Arsenal winger fouled in the penalty area.

Franck Kessie equalised from the spot to take the game into extra time with Haller scoring in the penalty shootout, with the Ivorians knocking out the holders 5-4.

Still not fit enough to start games, Haller was brought on against Mali in the quarter-final with the team down to 10 men, hitting the bar before Oumar Diakite scored in the 122nd minute to see the hosts through 2-1.

In the semi-final against DR Congo, Haller scored the only goal with a volley into the ground, which bounced over goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi and into the net.

That gave Haller the chance to put his health problems behind him, and looking forward to the final, he said: “The last 18 months have been quite challenging for myself and the family. I just take everything step by step and I just try to enjoy the moment. I don't want to have any regrets.

“It’s a great moment to be here in front of you, talking about the final of AFCON in my own country. It will take a few months, or a few years, to really realise what happened (to me).”

Hollywood scriptwriters would have ensured Haller scored the winning goal in front of his home fans, a scenario which looked unlikely when William Troost-Ekong had put Nigeria ahead seven minutes before half-time.

Kessie equalised with just over an hour gone before Haller seized his moment, flicking the ball into the net from Simon Adingra's cross in front of 60,000 fans at Abidjan's Alassane Ouattara Stadium.

An emotional Haller broke down in tears after the final whistle, the reality of his achievement hitting home.

"We dreamed of this moment so many times," Haller said. "We hoped to get to this point and once again the match wasn't an easy one. The joyous scenes we see now, what's happening in the country, they deserve it too. I really hope it does a lot of people good."

Haller was congratulated by Ivorian President Alassane Ouattara after picking up his winners' medal, perhaps in recognition of the impact his return had on Ivory Coast's Éléphants.

Understandably, Haller was front and centre of the team's trophy parade through the centre of Abidjan the following day, the victory a show of unity coming only 13 years since the end of Ivory Coast’s second civil war.

But victory was about more than just lifting the AFCON trophy for the first time since 2015.

Thousands of Ivory Coast fans came to celebrate on the streets of Abidjan, adorning the team’s orange and white colours, a national holiday called to celebrate the championship success.

Haller’s dignified and determined fight against cancer, his impact on the team and the entire nation underlined how sporting prowess can have a positive impact on society.

It’s a reminder not only of the importance of sport, but how its impact transcends the field, bringing joy, hope and inspiration to millions.

MISS – ENHANCED GAMES

With the recent backing of PayPal billionaire Peter Thiel and other tech businessmen, it looks like the controversial Enhanced Games has the financial backing to take place in 2024.

The Enhanced Games is a proposed international athletic competition, not unlike the Olympic Games, but with one major difference: they explicitly do not test for Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs). This is not to say that athletes are forced to dope, but rather than doping is perfectly permissible in the eyes of the organisers.

Their stated goal is to see how far humans can go, using a combination of chemical and technological doping; the former including anabolic steroids and hormone therapy, the latter technology like ’super trainers’ and swimsuits based on sharkskin.

The main philosophy of the Enhanced Games is that PED use should be seen as a ‘demonstration of science’ rather than as cheating.

Is this philosophy legitimate? It is true that no athlete succeeds on their own, and that every Olympic champion has a team of nutritionists, coaches and trainers, equipment designers, physiotherapists, friends, and family behind them. Why not add a pharmacist to the list?

The point could be made that high-altitude training could count as an unfair advantage, given that it is only available to athletes from countries that can either afford to fly them there, or who happen by chance to host training facilities in the mountains. It certainly gives athletes a clear and measurable edge over those that don’t have the option.

From a different perspective, a world-class swimmer like Michael Phelps has longer-than-average arms and a torso that is proportionally longer compared to his legs, as well as size 14 feet and a body that produces half the lactic acid of an average swimmer, but he is celebrated as a natural superhuman.

Meanwhile, women such as champion runner Caster Semenya, whose bodies produce higher than average testosterone levels, are punished and forced to take supplements to bring their hormone levels back down to average.

Clearly, there are grey areas when it comes to genetic and competitive advantages, so it could be argued that any and all enhancements should be allowed. That way, an athlete’s performance on the international stage would represent the combined scientific and sporting abilities of their nation to achieve victory as well as any genetic gifts they have.

Given the allegations of the Russian state-sponsored doping program that saw the state formally expelled from the Olympic Movement, forcing the nation’s athletes to compete as independents, this could be more endemic than we currently think.

The Enhanced Games also claim to have a vastly improved pay structure compared to the Olympic Games, including a stipend for all athletes that compete, as well as substantial prizes for the most successful – including up to and above $1m for gold medallists.

Olympic Games silver medallist James Magnussen has indicated he’d be more than happy to come out of retirement and take steroids if it meant a large payday.

He said: “They [Enhanced Games] have said they have a billion-dollar person backing them.

“If they put up a million dollars for the freestyle world record, I’ll come on board as the first athlete. I’ll juice to the gills and break it in six months.”

Three-time swimming gold medal winner Leisel Jones has argued that the Enhanced Games might actually benefit the Olympic Games.

“It might actually keep the clean sport, clean,” she said. “If this clears out people who genuinely want to [take PEDs] and are doing illegal things in sport, if that clears them out of clean sport, that would be wonderful.”

However, she has said that while she might be interested in commentating, she wouldn’t be interested in coming out of retirement to take part herself.

“I don’t want to participate in it myself, I’m not in a position to do that. The risks are too big for me I think for the side effects and whatnot.

“But I am happy to see other people do this. I would watch it for sure. I just want to know how fast they can go.”

There is some truth in the argument that traditional athletics has been afflicted by illicit drug use. Beyond Russia, a 2017 study carried out by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) suggested that as many of half of tested athletes had used PEDs in the last year.

Two parallel Games, one ‘natural’ and one ‘Enhanced’ could, properly enacted, result in fairer competition for all.

However, the Enhanced Games has understandably been strongly criticised by anti-doping agencies all over the world.

Travis Tygart, CEO of the US Anti-Doping Agency, described the Enhanced Games as ”farcical… likely illegal in many states” and “a dangerous clown show, not real sport”

In a release, WADA further condemned the new Games, calling it “a dangerous and irresponsible concept.”

“WADA warns athletes and support personnel, who wish to participate in clean sport, that if they were to take part in the 'Enhanced Games', they would risk committing anti-doping rule violations under the World Anti-Doping Code,

"Athletes serve as role models and we believe this proposed event would send the wrong signal to young people around the world.”

Australian Olympic Committee chief Matt Carroll added that: “The Australian Olympic Committee believes the concept of a drug-enhanced games is dangerous.

“We know next to nothing about this organisation but sport needs to be clean and it needs to be safe for all athletes,

“The Olympic Movement is devoted to clean sport and athletic excellence, celebrating the best in humanity, excellence, friendship and respect.”

A spokesperson from UK Anti-Doping has described the Games as ”‘unsafe, dangerous to athletes’ health and wellbeing [and flying] in the face of fair play.

"We believe competing is about respect, hard work and determination, not a dangerous game of endorsing drug use to enhance performance. We are committed to working with athletes to champion their rights, their health and their wellbeing.”

Even cyclist Joseph Papp, who was suspended in 2006 for PED use, has come out against the Enhanced Games.

“A doping free-for-all just invites the most ambitious person to be the most reckless person, and to take the most drugs possible without literally killing themselves.”

Athlete safety should be paramount in any sporting competition, and it is unclear how PEDs that are illegal in many countries would be regulated to ensure fair access for all competitors.

The condemnation that the Enhanced Games has received is also not limited to the world of sports: their messaging appears to be mimicking that of other, serious, political movements.

One of the Enhanced Games website slogans is: ‘My body, my choice,’ clearly attempting to echo the pro-choice slogans of pro-abortion activists.

Aron D’Souza, President of the Enhanced Games, said: “Fifty years ago, being a gay man was like being enhanced today. It’s stigmatised, it’s illegal in some sense and it’s done in a dark alley.”

In referencing a picture on the Enhanced Games website of an athlete holding up a flag bearing the event’s stylised “E+” logo, he added: “What changed for the LGBT community was pride — there was a flag to rally around and if you look at our website, it is intentional. What’s our first picture? A flag. Maybe this was our Stonewall moment.”

That is a bold claim even for a gay man like D’Souza to make, given the long and deeply oppressive experiences that LGBT+ communities have undergone throughout history.

There’s clearly a shock value aspect to the Enhanced Games’s communications strategy.

A further slogan of the Enhanced Games is ‘Science is real,’ echoing pro-vaccination arguments during the Covid Pandemic. These attempts to co-opt major worldwide political issues for the gain of the Enhanced Games organisers and investors is unlikely to improve the organisation’s credibility.

Whether or not they can attract sufficient athletes remains to be seen. At the time of writing, very few have publicly supported the new competition.

D’Souza claimed that 500 ‘sleeper’ athletes had privately agreed to take part, but so far none have spoken publicly, raising doubts about whether the Enhanced Games can go ahead.

With the very real safety concerns, the question remains: who will actually benefit from the Enhanced Games? It may certainly garner some initial attention, but what sponsors would want to be associated with such a controversial competition which would potentially undermine their own ethics and ethos?

D'Souza claims that he has no need for further investment, and that this is simply a project to see what humanity is capable of. But the financial incentives offered to attract athletes will need funding if the Enhanced Games are to ensure.

There is so much that the Enhanced Games have got wrong from a communications perspective.

Instead of demonstrating an understanding of the concerns and addressing them in a sensitive way, the approach has been one of aggressive belligerence.

Whether more athletes will sign up for the Enhanced Games in the fullness of time remains to be seen.

The risks to athlete safety alone will ensure continued widespread condemnation from the sports world and beyond.

Will Chhetri Add to His Goal Tally?

Whenever you think of footballers that have scored the most goals in international competitions, it makes perfect sense to think of superstars such as Cristiano Ronaldo.

But for many football fans, it is surprising to find out that Indian forward Sunil Chhetri has scored ninety-three goals for his nation since he made his debut back in 2005.

Chhetri is basically everything for the Indian national team: he is the captain, he has been capped the most times, and he has scored the most goals for India.

With also four goals under his belt in Asian Cup competitions, Sunil Chhetri will be determined to get India to the knockout phase in the upcoming Asian Cup tournament in Qatar.

At thirty-nine years of age, it is amazing that Chhetri continues to score goals for the Blue Tigers.

India has been drawn in Group B with Australia, Uzbekistan, and Syria. The first match for India will take place on 13 January against the Socceroos in Al Rayyan.

Online bookmaker Bet365 has the latest wagers and currently Australia is favored with 1/22 odds while India has 40/1 odds, and the odds for a draw are 14/1.

Chhetri is familiar with his first opponent as India was defeated 4-0 by Australia in its first match of the 2011 Asian Cup.

Ironically, the 2011 Asian Cup was held in Qatar and the match against the Aussies was also played in Al Rayyan.

Today, Australia is not the same powerhouse team won the 2015 Asian Cup. But it is safe to say that India should not be a tough opposition.

But even though India has not been a highly respected team in Asian football, it is worth noting that India was minutes away from advancing to the knockout phase at the 2019 Asian Cup.

Four years ago, India started the tournament with an excellent 4-1 win over Thailand but was defeated 2-0 by UAE in its second match.

India nearly held on for a scoreless draw against Bahrain, but a goal in stoppage time from the penalty spot meant India finished bottom of the group.

In all honesty, I think India has a chance to make it to the knockout phase. But it won’t be easy, and it might come down to goal difference.

This means that India must park the bus against Australia and make sure the score stays low.

Prediction: Australia 2-0 India

Why And How To Develop a Gamified Simulation Program

Acquiring staff members to interact with schooling and improvement generally is a serious obstacle — especially In terms of People boring matters. You’ll know which subjects I'm talking about mainly because your workforce will be repeatedly looking to prevent them or executing the bare least to have by and go forward. You’ll see their eyes glaze above when the same slide deck appears on their monitor they’ve observed for the last 5 years.

Of course, loads of this teaching can’t be prevented. It’s about compliance. It’s business enterprise-significant. It’s about basically endeavoring to Obtain your workforce to carry out at the highest in their video game.

So Let's say I told you this teaching can actually be entertaining, that your groups can love accomplishing it and that you could see a company impression you could measure?

Making Extra Highly effective Discovering And Growth Systems

Because the marketing and advertising director of a company that gives gamified simulation training options, I think there is a whole lot we will adapt with the gaming sector With regards to education our groups and executing it properly. Should the Sims four, a sport that simulates each mundane Portion of lifetime — from eating and sleeping to washing — can draw in ten million month-to-month active end users, then gamifying your schooling has the potential to remodel small business-important-but-dreaded training into anything your staff will basically choose to do.

Far more To suit your needs New Stability Warning Issued For Google s 1 8 Billion Gmail People Congress Introduces A Game Changing Crypto Bill Amid 350 Billion Bitcoin Ethereum BNB And XRP Selling price Pump ‘Anxiety The Walking Dead’ Year eight, Episode 4 Overview: It's possible Enjoy At Double Pace Developing Self-confidence

The Sims has proved it — we appreciate a daily life-simulator game. Exactly what is it which makes us equally as inclined to spend an hour pretending to scrub our kitchens and throw a supper bash as we're to really do those things in true everyday living?

In regards to the psychology of gaming, especially in everyday life simulators such as Sims, I feel It truly is due to the fact we’re offered the present of independence — the liberty for making choices and acquire matters Mistaken as repeatedly as we like with nominal repercussions. We’re not worried to give matters a go.

That’s why gamified 3D simulated environments could be a useful training arena for employees to build skills sustainably.

Mastering And Repetition: Why Exercise Will make Fantastic

There’s a cause that experts hardly ever end practising their capabilities. The sizes in the goalposts as well as the ball don’t change, but that doesn’t stop Cristiano Ronaldo from teaching everyday.

And of course, this doesn’t just implement to athletics. It’s not simply that repetition and follow can result in much better performance; there might be a measurable cognitive impact, also. Especially, analysis indicates that retrieval exercise supports your memory — so far more practice could lead on to better memory precision and precision.

Individual Improvement Plus your Base Line

On the subject of Discovering along with the impact on a company's fiscal general performance, it’s no surprise that 2018 Udemy (via Lifestyle Amp) data observed that top-engagement providers have a tendency to invest more on Finding out. Additionally, the exact same study located that 70% of businesses that extra online Finding out experienced an increase in profits.

But I do not believe employees constantly make improvements to from annual instruction, given that the repetition and apply intervals could possibly be too prolonged. Providing your team the ability to apply as usually as they want implies providing them the equipment they should understand and produce continuously.

Being familiar with Your People today Through Simulated Choices

It might be complicated for leaders to understand the people today they regulate to allow them to encourage them, help them and assist them reach their peak overall performance.

An more mature review carried out by an undergraduate college student discovered proof to advise that the way people behave during the Sims may very well be a projection of their real-everyday living values and temperament qualities. Whenever you’re looking at how your personnel respond and respond in virtual environments, you will be seeing a mirrored image of their temperament qualities.

If you're able to realize people superior, you’ll know how to get the ideal out of them And the way they can get the top outside of Functioning for your personal Business.

Guidelines for Planning A Gamified Simulation Training Software

By creating instruction that mixes psychology, gaming and learning, you can provide corporate learners with pleasurable, partaking and efficient teaching.

You should ensure the gamified simulation situations you employ are separately personalized for your enterprise and produce to lifetime precise experiences from your workplace reality. Ensure your personnel have the opportunity to answer in serious time and match their results against their colleagues to make pleasant Opposition.

One more spot to take into consideration is that you need to assure your teaching offers a safer setting to your staff members to create errors and discover from them.

You may be wondering why, if there’s a prospect of finding factors Improper, there’s any inspiration for gamers (and learners) to receive it proper. The answer could possibly lie in SDT (self-perseverance concept), and why the right know-how and application of behavioral psychology is important In regards to developing gamified simulation schooling with influence.

SDT tells us that humans have an innate require for competence, autonomy and relatedness. Hence, it is best to make certain the schooling you design and style will make personnel feel like they're mastering techniques, that they've psychological flexibility and that they're emotionally connected to Some others.

To make this enthusiasm in your team to keep participating with all your simulated Understanding natural environment, you’ll need to grasp The essential psychological needs that numerous aspects of the sport fulfill. A person 2017 study showed that games that emphasize flexible procedures bring on gamers emotion more capable. Interactional aspects can offer thoughts of relatedness.

It's also advisable to really encourage workforce to learn and play via your modules numerous instances. Then, you ought to use the data from their instruction sessions to determine which areas they wrestle with probably the most. This will likely aid you in supporting your staff grow to be a lot more confident in these spots. Productive education does not merely need the coach to layout the modules effectively but also to be certain they will monitor and assist staff members effectively.

You may say you don’t choose to change the game; you should develop it. And I do think equally your staff members along with your shareholders will enjoy you for it.

“How Companies Can Take Advantage of Digital Marketing”

Alexia Brice

1/29/2023

Sophomore 2nd Year

Tarleton State University

We can now connect with each other more quickly and effectively thanks to digital marketing. Additionally, the fact that it connects a company with its clients when they are online and works across various industries has made it crucial to many businesses. When customers are on Google, using social media marketing, email marketing, or both, it links businesses with their ideal clients. Digital marketing is necessary for every organization.

Consequently, we may now use digital marketing to obtain a wide range of products and necessities. But with so much potential, how can businesses utilize digital marketing? In this blog, we'll look at the several strategies businesses can use to take advantage of digital marketing opportunities while avoiding commonly occurring pitfalls. Prepare to plunge into the realm of digital marketing and discover what it takes to do it just right, from utilizing data to creating successful campaigns.

Let's start by understanding digital marketing. Developing, managing, and carrying out a marketing strategy that makes use of digital technology in order to connect with and engage target audiences is known as digital marketing. The main goals of digital marketing are to increase customer loyalty, turn leads into sales, and draw in new clients. Companies must have a thorough awareness of their target audience, their needs, and what drives them in order to benefit from digital marketing. Subsequently, they must develop captivating content that will connect with their audience and promote conversions. Take Nike as an example; in their "Write the Future" football commercial from 2010, which featured star players from the era including Cristiano Ronaldo, Didier Drogba, Fabio Cannavaro, Wayne Rooney, Franck Ribéry, and Ronaldinho (along with cameos from Roger Federer, Kobe Bryant, and Homer Simpson), soccer was the most popular attraction. Tiger Woods, an American professional golfer who owns multiple golf records, appeared in the Nike Golf — Tiger Woods Ball-Juggling commercial from 1999. Nike had to spend the majority of their time online to comprehend and invest in what would make their items more attractive in order to reach their audience. Additionally, every business must invest in the most recent digital marketing techniques and platforms.

Let's explore how beneficial digital marketing may be for these enterprises in more detail. Digital marketing offers a quick and affordable approach to connect with your target audience. It enables you to communicate with clients and potential clients using a range of platforms, such as email, social media, search engines, and websites. Compared to traditional marketing strategies, digital marketing has several advantages, such as:

The key to effective marketing has always been making connections with the target market at the appropriate time and place. The ideal place to meet consumers today is online.

They are making use of efficient digital marketing techniques to increase the likelihood that their marketing initiatives will be seen by consumers, which will have a substantial positive impact on their bottom line.

The most popular types of digital marketing are listed below for your consideration:

No. 11. Influencer marketing: the practice of companies enlisting celebrities, well-known bloggers, or social media users to assist them advertise their goods or services. Companies enlisting celebrities, well-known bloggers, or social media users to assist them advertise their goods or services.

Outgrowing something

As I said before in this blog entry, I outgrew reading young adult books. I did read them as a teenager, but I’m not young anymore and I don’t read them any more either. You might say I’m showing my age here, for all my faults at times. To be fair, if I’m not mistaken, there’s a study stating why some people reading young adult novels is because they don’t like how graphic adult-oriented novels are and get.

Power to them if they want to read something that’s wholesome and to be honest, I could tolerate some swearing in literature but there are things I will draw a line so I understand this. It’s like if it it’s something for adults, they will do anything to make it really graphic even then it’s not called for sometimes. But other times, I could get my wholesome fix from nonfiction and Christian literature to be honest.

As to why I stopped reading a lot of fiction, it happened when my cousin told me I was reading something the wrong way so that killed reading fiction for me. Well by accident, of course. I do have a habit of reading something at random so nonfiction, for me, is pretty kind on me in this regard. And to be very honest, I can comfortably read academic texts.

I even think some of them are as entertaining as they’re informative, well I haven’t stopped reading fiction. But if I do read fiction at all, they’re usually comics or folktales. Even then, I don’t read comics that often. It’s not that I hate comics, I don’t read them as often as I did for whatever reason and factor. But another reason why I turned to nonfiction as I got older’s that the real world’s really interesting.

It even has characters you don’t find in fiction, such as the murderess Myra Hindley being into dogs or witchdoctors who use dogs to attack footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo. Now these are things writers may need to turn to, should they do something new and different since merely subverting stuff doesn’t always hold water if it’s not based in the real world.

Well, that’s one of the odd things about getting older. Your preferences will change, like how I went from liking bouncy dance music and classical to Celtic music to oldies and country music. I’m dead serious about this one, but that goes to show you how one’s preferences change over time. Reading nonfiction is one of them in my case so.

“What are Mars signs?”

Mars signs can represent your sexuality, your energy, your drive & passion, your desires & how you achieve them, your sex drive, how you go about being assertive, how you handle & express your aggression, how you assert yourself, how you attack and defend things, what we are attracted by in others, and how you cut people or circumstances off.

“How do I find my Mars Sign?”

Go to https://www.astro.com/horoscope and press charts & calculations, then go to chart drawing.

»»——————————-　➴　——————————-««

MARS ♂IN ARIES:

This placement is consider domicile, since it’s at home here. Naturally, these people are very impulsive & head strong or self willed. They kind of just go into situations and things head first. They don’t really think about the consequences or what will happen afterwards, but it’s not always a bad thing because Mars is at home here so the native can naturally express themselves without much hesitation and without a lot of restriction. They have a strong sense of inner determination and just inner power in general. They’re very strong people. They’re good at starting new things with enthusiasm and excitement. They’re VERY enterprising!! When they want something, they will be very driven to get it as well. With this placement, I usually see natives whom are really athletic or just good with sports. They don’t typically try to avoid conflict, instead they’re ready to fight. Like I said before, their determination is so strong. Honestly it’s their greatest strength. They can kind of just like make it through anything. They are SOO powerful. NOTHING will stop them after they’ve set their mind to it. This placement is also a strong indicator of athletes. However, they can be bossy when irritated or provoked. They are also quick tempered. When they want something, they want it right now. They cannot stand waiting for things. They should really think before they act too because if they don’t, they might end up severely regretting it afterwards. This isn’t a secret but they usually have eyes for multiple people. They can sometimes be scared of committing to one person. These people might also take things too far when they’re in the heat of the moment. Also, they absolutely LOVE their friends. Sometimes they can also drop projects and things like that very easily too just because they want to move onto something new. They can cut people and circumstances off very quickly, and I’m not joking.. you don’t want to play with them. They will for sure fight anyone who hurts anyone they love or care about, especially their significant other. They can be EXTREMELY aggressive at times too. Honestly, if you ever encounter an Aries Mars run. Just do yourself a favor, honestly. 10/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Aries: Angelina Jolie, Kourtney Kardashian, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Jared Leto.

MARS ♂IN TAURUS:

Taurus Mars natives approach things quite slow, and this makes sense since mars is in detriment in Taurus. These people can have a harder time expressing their anger and can sometimes hold things back. But when they decide to do something, they are very dedicated to it and extremely committed. They won’t drop certain projects or things just because they’re bored, they’ll see it through until the end. However, it takes a lot for them to actually really commit to them.. they can be really stubborn. And this makes them not want to really open up about their anger or passion and instead just try to kind of quietly deal with it or just not deal with it at all. They can also not be quick when cutting people off. They’ll know that a person is bad for them, but they might just cut them off more slower instead of doing it right away. Another thing about these people is they can be extremely stubborn in relation to their desires. Again, they might not want to tell people. But they are very passionate about things like self-care, beauty, aesthetics, etc. When these individuals ground themselves, I can assure you, they feel 100x better because when they ground themselves they’re connecting to nature and the earth so it helps them feel more balanced. They can also be slow when pursuing their passions/desires or maybe just lazy sometimes, but they do have the potential to work really hard! And even if they do go really slow, the project or whatever they’re doing, will be VERY good. They like to work at their own pace and some might call them slow, but personally I think their own pace is just perfect for them. For them to work well, they have to be in comfortable and cozy surroundings. These are things that might help them work better. They really like feeling good and living well. It’s something that is essential to them, so they may really like tasty food, massages, relaxing, etc. They don’t do anything that won’t serve them either. I’ve also noticed that before they let go of a relationship or decide to leave a relationship, they have to have their way with the person first. Like they need to get something out of the person first before they leave. But when they get very annoyed, you’re over. VERY SCARY. 9/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Taurus: Kanye West, Kate Bush, Tom Holland, and Kate Moss.

MARS ♂IN GEMINI:

Mars in Gemini natives are so very energetic. It can be 2 am and they’d be up fooling around and what not. They like speaking and do it quite often. Whether it’s by themselves or with other people. They really rely on their mind for certain things if not everything. They focus more on creating strategic actions. They can also be pretty extroverted depending on other factors of the birth chart. They can kind of just morph themselves into different things when in conversations and I don’t mean this literally. They can just have a lot of different typing styles depending on the person they’re talking to. They really like to keep their minds busy and they usually keep them stimulated through reading, discussing interesting topics, and learning. These people genuinely hate when people belittle them or their knowledge too & usually snap back when this happens. They use their words to confront people and they do it very sharply. They also have a quick mind and wittiness so this just really helps them win in arguments. They can have answers for things very quickly, and they can also talk their way out of situations. Excuses come to their mind very quickly. Sometimes they might not choose the best words to use when getting emotional, so they may end up saying something they don’t mean and then later they’ll be having to apologize for it or just regret it. But they are definitely very good at hurting people with their words, whether they mean it or not. Words are like their greatest asset. They also often hop from one hobby to another or just start new projects but then get bored or unmotivated and just stop them completely and go to a different one. At times, they may be restless so exercise benefits them a lot especially when they’re having a sort of mental clutter. If they’re uninterested in things, they will not listen at all and what you’re saying will not be processed, however if they are interested they’ll go full in asking questions and everything which will allow them to easily understand the concept. When strategizing a plan to take down their enemy, they will also keep track of everything that person has done to wrong them so they can use it to their advantage in the future. They’re also very smart and intelligent and can see both sides when in an argument. However, like I said before they can be on and off with their projects. Random bursts of energy are common here. They can also have habits like twirling their hair, shaking their leg, tapping their fingers or other items, etc and this is very common because sometimes they will feel anxious and this is due to their scatter brain. They also have a lot of energy it’s truly amazing. Can definitely be scary at times. 7/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Gemini: Adriana Lima, Tyler The Creator, Coco Chanel, and Martin Luther King.

MARS ♂IN CANCER:

Mars is in detriment when in cancer. People with their mars in cancer are very defensive, resilient, and protective. They don’t necessarily like to deal with problems head on, and it’s not exactly that they avoid situations or problems it’s just they don’t like to take them on directly, so they might just do it in a less direct way. (Of course other factors of the birth chart can have an impact on this.) They can have a hard way expressing how they feel in a direct way because they’re always considerate about how others feel and how it may affect them. They can attract a lot of direct, and blunt people. They kind of just want to avoid conflict especially if it’s with their family or people they love. They also absolutely love having money saved up. It makes them feel good. However, without feeling secure financially, they can become more insecure and anxious. At times, they can have big emotional outbursts and they may even loose their temper too & when this happens, they often hurt people where it hurts. They really have to find like a balance within their emotions and their moods. Therapy can also really benefit them so they have a safe place to share their feelings. These people can often be natural leaders because of their attention to how people are feeling & they also value commitment over casual things especially when in relationships. When someone is being insensitive, it honestly makes them mad too since they’re so thoughtful & can understand people well, they feel like the feeling should be reciprocated. They also might not like people who are too logical, because Cancer Mars’ often see the more emotional side. (Again, this can depend on the elements of the chart.) Sometimes, they can be even more intense then an Aries mars because of how much more emotional they are. Cancer Mars’ are very hard and scary to deal with too. Honestly kinda like a ticking bomb. Will definitely hurt you if they get the chance but maybe not if you’re a close family member. 10/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Cancer: Lana Del Rey, Zendaya, Cardi B, and Halsey.

MARS ♂IN LEO:

People with their Mars in Leo are natural entertainers.. and this means they can be charismatic and confident at times. If they don’t have these traits, it may be something they need to learn how to develop. They kind of just want to feel proud and loved & they’re meant to just shine. The way they strategize and operate can be a bit self centered or just more self serving & it’s not necessarily bad because if you really think about it, it may actually help them. When they feel down or sad it can be a big thing for them just because they feel like they let themselves or other people down. Sometimes, (and this is not often the case with females) Leo Mars natives can have a more inflated ego & just completely put themselves on a pedestal. They may think they deserve everything when they actually don’t. They try to do big things, and take actions that may just shock people (sometimes for attention) which can backfire on them. Their sex appeal can also be extremely high. Their passion for certain things can also be high, and it’s kind of like really noticeable. They also like dramatic sex lifes because it’s just more fun to them. They don’t like when people take them for granted or use them for personal gain. They like people who actually value them and notice how much work and effort they actually put in. They also LOVE getting time for themselves. It’s a must for them to be genuinely happy. They need time to express themselves, their creativity, etc. Sometimes they put on a front or just a fake persona to be perceived differently so that people think they’re the best, and this can stem from their big egos. They’re also extremely protective over the people they love, and will make it known if they don’t like you. Sometimes, they’re a little hot-headed & they can be dramatic with their anger too. Their aggression level can be higher than some of the other mars signs, and they can be horrifying. 8/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Leo: Beyoncé, Gigi Hadid, Megan Thee Stallion, and Melanie Martinez.

MARS ♂IN VIRGO:

First off, I personally feel like this Mars sign is very generous. They like to be of service to others and do actions that will benefit others and this makes them happy, it doesn’t matter whether they get anything in return or not because that alone will make them glad. They kind of just keep themselves steady and in check. They don’t really rely on anyone else to make sure they don’t mess up, but instead they will take that responsibility. I think that sometimes with this mars sign, they can keep their sexuality kind of hidden but once they get close to their partner they’re warm and affectionate. Their absolute specialty is creating limits & boundaries for themselves as well as lines they will not cross in terms of actions. When they’re strategizing, they like to have everything in order & like to have all the little tiny details so that they can bring it up. They also tend to put their energy into certain things more than other things. They’re very nit picky about that stuff. They might also strive for perfection like all virgo placements, but when they’re in a conflict they might not really pay attention or they just might not care much until someone crosses a line. Many times they stay silent though because they know the person that wronged them will face their karma sooner or later but they have no problem confronting people head on, they’re not super angry when this happens though. They’re more calm. They know how to peruse their goals and are SO tactical. They have a step by step plan on how to get what they want. These people also don’t like failure or failing, so no matter the task, they’ll do it just to pass. They’ll suck it up if it means they get a victory. They are also very logical. They can separate their emotions from decisions in an easy way. I have also noticed that these people tend to hide their feelings due to their pride. They like correcting people when in arguments. Virgo Mars natives aren’t that aggressive either. They’re more likely to talk it out. 5/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Virgo: Johnny Depp, Ariana Grande, Britney Spears, and Blake Lively.

MARS ♂IN LIBRA:

Natives with their Mars in Libra are kind of like the peacemakers. They know how to end arguments and conflicts without aggression or violence, and they are very much good at negotiating. Maybe sometimes they can even negotiate their way out of problems. Like many Libra placements, they can see two sides of an argument & are actually naturally flirtatious. When they win over people it makes them happy & it feels to them like they’re successful. They are also very charming & attractive. Sometimes them wanting peace can result in more conflict though. They will draw the line when people offend their opinion of human rights and just overall personal beliefs. Yes, they can also struggle with confrontation and are inconsistent & indecisive with their actions. They are also just attracted to people that don’t have their best interest at mind. This placement I feel like can procrastinate a lot but they’re also indecisive with their actions because they’re not too sure what the result will be. They also get taken advantage of which can be a pattern in their life just because they’re so kind so they may decide to become more selfish. They are driven by their desire to have peace, and to have things be beautiful and just look aesthetically pleasing. They can be very persuasive. And I mean very. They also want to be chased, not do the chasing when in relationships. Their sex drive can be really impulsive too. Before making any type of move, they will consider many things. But they can genuinely see every angle. Even though their sex drive can be high, they like to go about it in a romantic way. I think they just need to work on their confrontation skills because this will also help get them out of their stagnant energy. They’re aggression level is not too much. Out of 10, I’d say 4.

Celebrities with their Mars in Libra: Eminem, Kylie Jenner, Whitney Houston, and J.K. Rowling.

MARS ♂IN SCORPIO:

This is a very powerful placement to have in my opinion since it’s in domicile. It can kind of draw seductive people towards the native. They can be very intense in arguments or conflicts as well as very passionate or driven. Sometimes, they can be forceful but are strong willed and are really prone to extreme/strong emotions and inner conflicts. To channel their emotions correctly, they can try to do something like painting, drawing, exercising, etc. It’s better for them to write out their emotions instead of just keeping them for themselves. They tend to.. provoke or trigger people even though they’re not trying to which causes problems. If they start having a problem with someone or something, they’re definitely the type to start planning revenge. And they may not be the most vengeful but they won’t just ignore what you did to them. They have the serious ability to do amazing things. They have the energy, capacity, dedication, and passion to accomplish and achieve everything they want. But when they get triggered or when something emotional happens they can just be very intense but in a bad way. They can lash out on people when this happens too. They often have a HIGH sex drive as well. But they can be either very sexual/hyper sexual or more reserved and don’t want anybody touching them. Manipulation is also something that may be prominent. They can manipulate people in order to get further in life. These people can also be very disciplined. If they really want something done, it will be done. Since they draw people in easily, once that person is there, they may be possessive or jealous of other people who threaten their position. When they get mad, it can be very scary & at times it’s over the littlest things but you can see that scary look in their eyes. They also have really great stamina! They’re really prone to getting physical with people when in fights, and they can do damage even if it’s over a small thing like something siblings would fight about. They can overall be really easy & quick to anger & once provoked, are very intense. 9/10 aggression level.

Celebrities with their Mars in Scorpio: Taylor Swift, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kurt Cobain, and Khloe Kardashian.

MARS ♂IN SAGITTARIUS:

Mars in Sagittarius natives can be very energetic and fiery. They like being physically free, and they don’t feel like holding back from expressing their emotions, especially when in a conflict or argument. I’m not gonna lie, they can be pretty problematic though. Also, just very blunt which is not necessarily bad. But also in arguments they can just kind of try to lighten the mood up and make jokes which sometimes works. They just have to find the balance of being mindful of other feelings and expressing themselves or else someone will most likely get offending because again a Sagittarius Mars is not afraid to say what they want to say. They’re also not afraid to speak about politics, beliefs, etc. So when someone has very stubborn or fixed beliefs, I think this Mars sign is more likely to just leave the discussion then to waste their time trying to convince someone. They’d rather be doing something else with their energy. This Mars sign can also be a bit polyamorous.. they’re attracted to a lot of people/things so it can be hard for them to stay loyal to just one object or person. They also just move on pretty easily depending on other factors of the chart. They definitely like having conversations with people who think the same way as them though. They also just have sometimes a very hyper energy but more subtle in a way. They can lack endurance and consistency. Also, they’re not patient people. They like things that come quickly to them. They’re also blessed with a great amount of energy. However, I feel like sometimes they don’t use this energy in the best ways. When they’re mad, they’ll do impulsive things. Sometimes, they definitely enjoy slandering people or just talking bad about people they don’t like. They might also have trouble just sitting still & might have to shake their leg or tap a pen, just something that will calm them. When people try to walk over them, they’ll definitely put up a fight. They can also be very unbothered when going about this. 7/10 aggression level. They can get pretty aggressive but not TOO aggressive. They can also be pretty threatening.

Celebrities with their Mars in Sagittarius: Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Ellen DeGeneres, and Doja Cat.

MARS ♂IN CAPRICORN:

First off, very calm people when it comes to arguments and fights. They have this kind of chill aura whenever they’re in an argument. Like it dosen’t really phase them. They also like to be in charge. They’re assertive by taking responsibility and just being kind of mature. They always find ways to make things happen, even if it’s truly hard. They literally do things other people don’t have the drive to. Very dedicated and committed. They’re very disciplined.. they will stick to their routines. (Like workouts, etc) but they do have high standards, not necessarily a bad thing either, but they just expect everyone to be as committed and driven and disciplined as them which doesn’t always work out. They’re often workaholics as well. It’s hard for them to just rest and stop because they feel like they have to do it all at once and they don’t realize they have time and can get back to whatever they’re doing later. In arguments, they tend to just intimidate people because they act very serious and not many people can handle that intensity. Whenever they work, it’s like they’re working towards something (like a higher goal.) They think small issues are not something to really fret or worry about a lot, but they do put importance on to big issues. They have this way of just controlling themselves.. especially with their energy. They’re patient enough and they realize that it takes time to reach their goals so they’re not really big on giving up half way and will see it through. If there is something or someone in their way, they’ll just pass through it without a sweat. They like to turn their energy into money. These people also tend to hide their sexual nature or even repress it. In relationships, they may not show all parts of their emotions either but in truth they do feel deeply and are very passionate. They truly put time & effort into their work. For their aggression level I’d say 6/10. They can definitely be dangerous but they’re more calm about it so they’re not likely to get very aggressive. (Depends on the chart as well.)

Celebrities with their Mars in Capricorn: Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt, Albert Einstein, and Megan Fox.

MARS ♂IN AQUARIUS:

People with their Mars in Aquarius have a unique energy to them. They may even spend some of their time doing “unusual” things. Their emotions can just show up out of no where because they may have been holding on to anger, sadness, etc for a long time. Like a lot of Aquarius placements, they’re attracted to eccentric or unique people. They really look up to or just admire people who are really themselves and aren’t afraid to be weird because it makes them feel comfortable enough to truly express themselves. I think they do like being committed to only one person despite the misconceptions but it just has to be the perfect person for them.. which is someone who lets them have independence. They also need & crave change too in relationships. However, if they find someone who is truly interesting to them they will most likely never look at anybody else. They’re extremely loyal when their true unique self is expressed. However, they might be more prone to friends with benefits relationships. Although they can be a bit detached, they can also be jealous & this energy may come in little ripples. Whenever they’re in an argument with someone, they can just be very hard to figure out… like the other person doesn’t know their next move. They’re also just hard to figure out in general. They can have unusual desires, or just desires that happen very quickly. They have to be mentally committed to something in order to take actual action on it. They have a very strong mental energy. These people tend to stand up for social injustice and don’t agree with it at all. They’re not too afraid of failing anything because they’ve already thought it out (this may also apply to arguments or desires.) May not really like traditional things or conservative things, and can also have problems with authority figures or people who tell them what to do. Their aggression level is like a 3.5/10. They can kind of just detach themselves or not notice when they’re feeling angry, so there’s not much aggression here. It’s more mental.

MARS ♂IN PISCES:

Mars in Pisces natives are very dreamy, talented, and imaginative like all pisces placements. They have a very active mind & just a lot of emotional energy, and their imagination is just fresh and new. They’re usually attracted to people that are not well known, or just people who kind of hide in the shadows. This is because they like to help others heal, and maybe even “fix” them. They are actually very romantic and sentimental though. Definitely really caring even when in arguments. But they can get caught up in the “illusions” of other people, situations, or conflicts. I see some Pisces Mars natives choose unhealthy partners because they want to help them, but sometimes getting involved is not always the right way to go as it may cause even more harm. People can often take advantage of them as well. Like yes, they are so so nice but they need to learn how to set boundaries for themselves so that they don’t get taken for granted or get used. They need to set boundaries especially with who they let into their life and who they allow to access their energy. Their energy can really depend on the day, some days they can feel much more talkative and energetic, and other days they may just feel like sitting down quietly & being stuck in their head. A lot of people think they’re just stuck in their head, and while this may be true some of the time, they can actually be observant and know what is going on around them. They’ll just act like they don’t know. They may not be as aggressive as other Mars Signs, but they will take revenge in other ways if you really fuck up. These people usually have some sort of physic power. They can just imagine what they’ll do to certain people if that person actually, deeply messed up. And it can be terrifying- because they’re not aggressive, but they have a way of messing with people’s minds & spirituality instead. They can also just know peoples true intentions towards them. Their aggression level is about a 2/10.

Celebrities with their Mars in Pisces: Marilyn Monroe, Billie Eilish, Paris Hilton, and LeBron James.

Please keep in mind that there are other factors of your birth chart that contribute towards your aggression level. This is a very general description.

let’s ride: the council of moms (6) ✧ ari levinson

let’s ride ✧ a biker!ari levinson series | ao3

pairing: biker!ari levinson x single mom!reader

summary: the tension with the council of moms ramps up.

word count: 1,277

warnings?: protective!reader, council of moms are shitty and speak badly about single parents, reader gets slapped, reader is a single mom (dad is lowlife scum who left when finding out she was pregnant), pet name (sweetpea, momma), this kinda sucks but oh well

note: there is no set update schedule for this; new parts come whenever they come.

If soccer didn’t make Liam so happy, you were fairly certain that you would’ve never introduced him to the sport. You were someone who was particularly into athletics anyways, save for when the Olympics were happening. But, outside of that, you couldn’t care less about baseball innings or touchdowns or goalies or whatever the hell a particular sport was doing. You were still figuring out how soccer worked, and Liam had been doing this for weeks now. And this was an incredibly simplified version of soccer, you’d been told!

You supposed, though, your chief complaint was that the Council of Moms existed. You had never felt so much hatred for people you barely knew, but then you met them. They all thought that their little demons were going to be the next Cristiano Ronaldo or Meghan Rapinoe. And perhaps they could be, but they’re also seven. At this stage, soccer is for fun. Worry about the competition when the game actually gets competitive. This is all participation trophies and having fun. Why force the game to be more intense than it should be?

That’s why you enjoyed having Jefferson to talk to. Ever since you met him at the first game, he had been a sort of a saving grace. You could swap parenting tips, rant about whatever bullshit method the school was using to teach math, rant about the worst parts of your days. But, that got boring. You appreciated him regardless, but he just didn’t capture your interest. Your mind would wander far, far away until it landed on Ari.

It was a no brainer to you, to invite Ari to practices. You would get to talk to him, Liam would get to see him. Plus, it brought you a sort of satisfaction that it pissed the Council of Moms off so much.

Really, you couldn’t understand why bikers bothered them so much. Sure, they looked the rough and tumble type, but just by knowing Ari and having met Sam and Bucky, you knew that they were genuinely kind people. Just big ole teddy bears. And, sure, motorcycles were loud and all that, but they weren’t driving about trying to piss people off (unlike the bastards who would start mowing their lawns at five in the fucking morning). They were just living their life. And these moms thought they had the right to judge them?

God, it made you see red just thinking about it.

So just imagine how it made you feel when you heard the whispers of their conversation while Ari ran to the car to grab the snacks you’d made for the team.

“Ugh, can you believe she invited…him to practice.”

“Right? The audacity!”

You walked over, pretending like you didn’t know what they were talking about. “What’re we talkin’ ‘bout, ladies?”

They all straightened, painting fake smiles on their faces. Sherri spoke first, looking you up and down, trying to hide the curl of her lip, as she said, “Oh, nothing!”

“Yeah? ‘Cause that sounds like something a liar would say.” You paused, cocking your head to the side. “Actually, no, it sounds like something a little kid would say when they got caught drawing on the wall with Sharpie.”

“Are you accusing us of lying?” Sheana said.

“No, no! I know you’re lying.”

“How dare you—”

You cut Terra off, raising a single hand. “I don’t want to hear it. I understand that the group of you are a bunch of sad, miserable women, but you don’t need to take it out on everyone else.”

“Who the hell do you think you are? Choosing a...biker over your fellow mothers?”

You looked between them. “Are you serious? We might all be mothers, but frankly I don’t want anything to do with you. We’re only civil, if we’re even that, because our kids are friends. I don’t have to like you. And I don’t like you! All you’ve done since I’ve met you is judge, and judge, and judge. Well, newsflash, y’all aren’t saints either!”

“Well, at least we’re not single—”

“Don’t you dare fucking go there.”

“There are children—”

“Oh, don’t act like you’ve never swore when your kids are within earshot!” you snapped. “And don’t you dare act like you’re better than me just because all of you have the father of your children in your lives. That doesn’t make you parent of the year. Hell, sometimes it’s the single parent raisin’ their kid without any help that’s doin’ the best damn job out of all of us. We don’t love our kids any less, we don’t act like we’re a goddamn gift to humanity. We’re just tryin’ to do the same damn thing you are. But heaven fucking forbid we not have the other parent in our lives. You don’t know why Liam’s dad’s not around! It could be fucking anything, and you have the audacity to—”

Your head jerked to the side, a fresh sting spreading across your face.

A new sense of rage filled you, and you lunged forward, shouting “how dare y—”, as the sound of a whistle filled the air, a strong set of arms wrapping around your middle, tugging you away.

“Ladies, ladies!” the head coach said, standing between you and the Council of Moms, holding his arms out, ready to push back if either of you moved to attack. “Hold on now, there is no need to be attacking each other!”

“She just called us terrible names,” Charissa said, rubbing her hand like she really hurt herself hitting you, making sure to put on the waterworks. “For no reason, too!”

“Oh, chill, with the crocodile tears, Cruella,” the assistant coach said with a roll of his eyes.

“It’s Charissa—”

“No one cares.”

Behind you, Ari was still holding onto you, and you weren’t quite sure if your heart was racing because of how pissed you were or because of how aware you were that you were so close to him. “You okay, sweetpea?”

“I’m gonna kill her,” you muttered.

“Well, I’ll get ready to bail you outta jail then.”

For a flicker of a moment, the anger subsided, and you found yourself laughing at him. “Well, until you can bail me out, will you look after Liam while I’m behind bars?”

“Is that even a question? ‘Course I would, sweetpea.” He spun you around so you were facing him and he held you a little tighter. “Now, as much as I’d love to see you go all mama bear on them...”

“I know, I know. I shouldn’t.”

“Oh, no, I was gonna say that the coaches already took care of it.”

You looked over your shoulder, seeing the head coach yell at the Council of Moms. Turns out, he heard what they said and, having been raised by a single mother himself, he wasn’t too pleased with what they had to say. You couldn’t stop the childish inclination inside you, so you locked eyes with Charissa and stuck your tongue out.

“You bitch!” Charissa shouted.

“That’s it, you’re outta here!” the head coach snapped. “You are not going to disrupt my practice by causing drama! Come back here when you can behave like an adult!”

“Hm, revenge is sweet,” you mused, watching as Charissa grabbed her child off the field and took him back to her car before speeding off.

“Kinda like ice cream,” Ari agreed. “Which I think you deserve. It’s my treat.”

You looked back to him, and before you could stop yourself or think about how that might not be a good idea or how you really should be keeping him at arm’s length, you said, “I’d like that.”
