#its a crime i cannot pet the dog

[arckiaym]

Y'all, whose fuckin dog is this?

Been seeing a lotta love for the npcs lately (which I love, tell me all about these silly guys) and I haven't seen anyone mention this dog

Why is it wearing a funny sweater? Someone had to make that for it, so it's someone's dog, clearly. Someone loves this dog enough to equip it with a funny sweater, but nobody mentions the dog!!!

And it's hanging out around the Boss Elevator of Death like it Knows Something and then it runs to the east to trick me specifically into thinking that's the right way to go. So then I die to ninja frogs for an hour because the puppy told me to do that and I am simply helpless to disobey.

Nobody mentions the dog in the fun picture book story times so Whose! Dog! Is! That!!

hey dawg thanks for feeding us living weapon whumpee enjoyers

i know that generally the vibe for living weapon whumpees is like the stoic "unfeeling" supersoldier type, but how are we feelin about living weapon whumpees that are like. off the shits feral.

more of an attack dog than a super soldier, weapons of mass destruction built into them cybernetically, because their masters aren't looking for efficiency, they're looking to send a message. for everyone around to know that if you don't bow to their rule, they'll send their monster to destroy you and everything you hold dear.

(and ofc the "monster" themself is kept in a constant state of suffering so they're always agitated and the pain clouds their mind too much to question what they're doing and why)

I love the way you think!

I never really thought of that character trope as a living weapon, but you aren't lying, it would count. (My brother and I's ocs would count then Ig) Also ties into monster whumpees :D

Here's some ideas I bounced off of this

Guard Dog Whumpee

CW: Pet Whump Sorta, Classic, the whump community should bring these up more

Whumper having more than one, forcing them to compete with one another. The most brutal earns their medical treatment.

Dangerous whumpees who have to be muzzled and mitted because whumper doesn't have them under control fully. Gentle carewhumpers being able to coerce whumpee into muzzles.

Non-guard dog whumpees equally trapped under whumper's boot being terrified of the guard dog. Sharing space with one is like sleeping on the shore of alligator infested rivers.

Scarred whumpees with dangerous animalistic features bared, backed into a corner with a tail in between their legs. Caretaker is trying their best to appear nonthreatening.

A guard dog whumpee failing its job. It showed no fear to its enemies, but the same cannot be said as they returned home.

Monster Living Weapon Whumpee

Say that three times fast

While rampaging after whumper's enemies whumpee broke the device keeping them confined to whumper. Quickly a symbol of destruction becomes a confused, hurt, and whimpering creature.

Whumpee always thought they were uniquely a monster. Whumper told them so everyday, rewarding them for their monstrousness, telling them they're alone as a creature of evil. Whumpee always thought this until they met caretaker.

Monster whumpees that despite being living weapons show rage in their failures, and pride in their kills. They don't see that whumper's treatment of them is subpar, because they're "partners in crime" of course. Caretaker would never treat whumpee that way if they were their weapon.

Killing Machine

They know what they're capable of, and they don't want to be that

Maybe they wanna do things their way, maybe they're ashamed of being a killing machine. Whumper could care less.

Killing machine in disguise has been living the everyday life, perhaps even an extravagant one. Whumper found them out, and no one has seen whumpee since, until the destruction started.

Killer Machine Villain -> Supervillain meets Villain with the promise to make them more powerful -> Extra Murderous Killer Machine Villain (Unstable)

Robotic whumpee that is just doing what they're told. Whumper was great, whumper was life. Robotic whumpee who sees whumper returning home with the newest model. Whumper who won't stop boasting about how much more efficient and deadly the new one is.

merry headcanons

as a child, he sincerely believed he could talk to cats. this ended at age 13.

can do cartwheels. pippin cannot. this is brought up in arguments more frequently that imagined

has a filter, contrary to some of what he says. he also acts as pippins filter

possesses an uncanny ability to sniff out weed. can tell the quality of such by smell alone. can also tell you where it may have come from, and how it was grown

has a small patch of cannabis growing in a back room of his estate. it used to be a sunroom but is now a greenhouse/weed lab.

merry religiously documents it’s growth, soil conditions, exposure to light, and most importantly: potentness

unfortunately this has manifested in a very strong but unpleasant tasting plant. this sort is hearty, can grow under any conditions, but really just tastes/smells. absolutely awful.

he did try and recruit sam into helping him until sam realized what was going on and wanted “no business in such a practice”

uses samples saved from the whole Saruman takedown and propagates what he can. also keeps some for comparison. he is very organized with this and has a whole spreadsheet he references frequently

merry also likes to know where everything is at all times. he’s not super weird about it but everything does have its place and he will know if you move it

got into furniture making. makes. questionable, ‘innovative’ ‘contemporary’ and ‘unique’ pieces

in reality it’s because he likes to make chairs that specifically make people want to leave because of how uncomfortable they are

like. he loves his family. but sometimes they get the squeaky chair. there’s a table with one leg slightly smaller than the rest that makes everyone uneasy. a couch that is just too low to the ground and cushy, so that you sink in but your legs are cramped. there’s a chair with the back curved slightly too steep, so when someone sits in it their posture is terrible. it also has a shorter than normal seat so you can’t scoot forward either

it’s not torture. people can endure it. it’s just mean to make sure no one does for very long.

this set is strategically in the foyer, so if he likes you well enough you’re granted entity into the living room with normal furniture. which is very tastefully decorated and has framed artwork of his many nieces and nephews.

he absolutely adores the littlest members of the shire and will spoil them however he can

draws maps of the most absurd things. just. maps that no one even asked for but are delightfully absurd

“directions to bagend, avoiding all dogs, aunts, sheep and red mail boxes” “brandybuck estate, but only the trees” “every pub in the shire, and who to avoid on your way back from a good time”

and, famously, “pippins brain”

this is a circle, and in it, two singular dots

one saying “pipe weed” and the other “bad ideas”

there use to be a third dot, that said “lack of cart wheels” but that has been a angerly scribbled out (culprit is still a ‘mystery’ )

decent navigational skills

of course, no one listens to him.

judges the annual pie contest

is actually. really good at it. has a very defined palette dispute the copious amount of weed he smokes

“is that rubarb? it adds a wonderful complexity to the strawberry and pistachio- though, i’d recommend not using molasses next time instead try brown sugar.”

like. merry. why do you know these things.

also judges the pie EATING contest. this is because there is a scandalous amount of cheating and he was part of a huge pie-in-the-trousers bust and now sits in the jury as an esteemed member

pippin thinks he’s a traitor to the cause. this is because pippin was a primary perpetrator in said pie-in-the-trousers bust.

has two pet rabbits. by pets i mean fellow members of the “raiding farmer maggots crops” club, who he saved from a few rodent traps and took home

merrys morals, to recap, does not allow him to permit pie-crimes, but he is totally okay with casual thievery

did not have the heart to said rabbits as they were cut from the same cloth. he let them out the back yard once he got home and they just. kind of. stayed

their names are gandalf and gandalf because ones gray and ones white. many hobbits have been taking after that and also naming their animals gandalf. this of course pisses gandalf off to no end.

is a great babysitter. mature enough to not get into trouble but still has a childish sense of adventure, and lots of stories

he is the trusted fun uncle. pippin being the reckless fun uncle.

he acts stories out more than tells them to the kids, as his way with words is not so great as his way with sound effects.

also makes his own sock puppets and will occasionally put on small shows for the kiddos during family gatherings. fan favorites are “merry takes down the witch-king” “the march of the ents” and “the hobbit who couldn’t cartwheel” (the last ends with the hobbit simply learns to accept that everyone has different talents- something not true to life because pippin still hasn’t accepted this)

is high key very smart. doesn’t do a lot with this. he prefers to enjoy the simple things in life, and has found that so long as he makes sure he and his are looked after, life can be very easy.

that being said. he is not as care free as he’d like to be

is very prepared and well organized. has rations for days and a go-bag, even in his later years. everyone mocked him for years but it took him maybe ten minutes to grab everything and join up with frodo and sam. he also has extra go-bags, which is why it only took pippin 15 minutes (an extra five because pippin lost his bag about two seconds after merry gave it to him)

merry got the “anxiety” hobbit gene that manifests in being (only slightly) a prepper. there’s cans of beans and fruit as well as bottled water hidden in the cellar of the brandy-buck estate. enough food to last nearly five years, but for a hobbit, three.

this gives him peace of mind, as he knows he is prepared for whatever life gives him

he also knows he has braved many things before and anything that may come now will be significantly less of a hardship

he will never have to face down another witch-king, or more importantly, go without second breakfast

A debate I had on Reddit about abortion rights.

The person I'm arguing with is an active participant of the Mensa subreddit, so they already fancy themselves a genius to some extent.

Me:

No arms, no legs, no heart, no brain. Just a blood vessel pumping blood from the host to the clump of cells.

And the "But there's a heartbeat" excuse is a lie. You're only hearing the host's blood pumping into cells cause the heart isn't fully formed until 10 weeks. Additionally, the brain isn't even fully developed until 24 weeks. No heart organ, no brain, it's not a viable life outside its host body.

Them:

Yeah that's an empirical argument to deny ontology. That's not convincing to anyone who thinks there is an essence to being human that isn't tied to having arms and legs.

Me:

I'm sorry, but are you trying to use philosophy to argue whether or not someone is capable of living without a heart, brain, and lungs?

Them:

How do you determine what is human and what is not? Arms and legs? What do you call someone without arms and legs? Or a mechanic heart? You can't answer the question 'what is human' based on physical qualities only. So yes, logically you cannot answer the question without philosophy.

Me:

I think you are confusing personhood with the human species.

A person is someone who can think, breathe, and exist on their own. They have a personality and their own opinions on subjects like abortion.

A human being or homo sapiens is a species on earth that evolved enough to form social groups and cultures and, therefore, are capable of personhood. Some other more complex animals might be capable of personhood, like Koko the Gorilla. She was intelligent, learned to communicate using sign language, and even had her own pet.

I'm not discussing this subject in terms of personhood. A fetus isn't developed enough to form a sense of personhood if it can't even survive on its own at 2 months gestation.

Them:

I'm talking about the essence of what makes one a living human. As long as pregnant women before the 3rd month believe they're carrying a child, which is all of them who want to *keep* the child, I am not appealed by the argument that it's suddenly no longer a child but rather a fetus for biological/scientific/empirical reasons when there are various financial and social advantages of it being so.

The points you mention are even still different from mine.

Me:

>The points you mention are even still different from mine.

Correct because again, you fail to see the point of the argument.

You yourself say;

>As long as pregnant women before the 3rd month believe they're carrying a child, which is all of them who want to *keep* the child,

That's all fine and dandy cause it's her *choice* to do so, not yours and not the government's. But it's not yours or anyone else's place to force your philosophical or religious views on an entire nation and bully us all into following them by making your opinions a law.

Them:

It's a choice to recognise a human as a human, you're saying? So where's the end to that travesty of logic? A cat is a dog, a man is a woman, that dog is a man and that man is a dog. That's a wild world you're living in. I don't see the world that way, it defeats both logic and common sense. But it surely makes a way to justify doing whatever the hell you like doing. I won't force morality on you, but I'll tell you when it's absent.

Me:

Again, you're trying to use philosophy to argue science, and that gets us nowhere. I already stated I'm not talking from a philosophical standpoint.

You can see the world however you want. Your morals aren't always going to line up with your neighbors morals. Your neighbor might think it's immoral to eat any kind of meat. Are you gonna give up that steak dinner cause they can smell it in their living room? How would you feel if the entire government decided eating meat is a crime and, therefore, it's banned and you go to jail just for eating a hamburger. Kinda sucks when other people force their philosophy and religion on you by passing laws to get their way.

Now I know you're gonna be like, "But you can't compare pregnancies to diets!" But you're already equating philosophy with science. So, let me give you another scenario.

Do you like eggs? Eggs are just undeveloped chickens who were denied the ability to develop and hatch. Will you give up your eggs and bacon just because your vegan neighbor says it's immoral?

Since to you personhood and human are one and the same. Say aliens decide to visit earth; they have arms and legs and a brain, can speak, express emotions, and have their own culture. Are they human? Do we give them the same rights as you and me even though they weren't born on earth and are basically invading our planet? Or are they just displaying personhood?

If you say yes, they are human and deserve the same rights as you and me, then you also need to give those same rights to the "illegal aliens" that cross the border.

Why are undeveloped fetuses given more rights to life than families with children who are trying to seek a better life? Why do we value a fetus over the actual baby? Once it's born, if the mother says she needs help, she's scorned and looked down on for asking for WIC, foodstamps, and cash benefits to help feed and cloth her baby. She should have thought of that before deciding to have a baby, right? But if she decides she's unable to afford a baby, and she can't afford to take time off because the pregnancy is making it hard for her to work, she's called a murderer for seeking an abortion.

To pro-life advocates, a fetus is more important before it's born than after it's born. And you won't convince me otherwise. The same people pushing for abortion bans, banning mifepristone (a drug that's also necessary to help with incomplete miscarriages), and even simple birth control are the same people who vote to cut funding to welfare programs, free lunch programs, and to entire school districts. That's not very pro-life of them now, is it?

-------

They gave up the argument after that.

I could have converted this into a rant solely from my perspective, but I felt it would be better just to copy it as a script.

Pro-lifers are not actually pro-life. They are just anti-women and anti-choice. If they actually cared about the fetus, they would care about it after its born by passing laws and regulations that would ensure the child has the best quality of life possible and every chance to succeed. Instead, time and again, they vote against those laws.

They don't care about the fetus once it's born. Why is that? Could it be that their true goal all along is to force women back into submission because they romanticize the bygone era of the 1800s and early 1900s when women didn't hold jobs, didn't vote, and couldn't do anything without their husband's explicit permission?

I dunno, that's just the vibe I get from the anti-choice supporters. Why else would they say things like, "Stop riding dick if you can't take accountability." But then start foaming at the mouth when you remind them accountability goes both ways. When's the last time they made a child support payment?

[hexgravity]

Sorry for inactivity outside of reblogs. Genuinely in the midst of an idea drought.

So I guess the current projects I'm working on are Fragile Life, an unnamed story.

Lost Marrow is something I'll dabble in when I feel like, had once tried to make it a story, does not work.

I don't think I'm a story/comic type of guy like I used to be. So most of my projects will be loosely connected drawings.

With that being said I do plan on drafting more refs soon.

Given the outfit aesthetics I gave everyone, I need to come up with some for the rest.

Here's like the the list of info I got so far.

Grian: his is tricky for me, currently I'm working with like a dnd ranger aesthetic but I'm not sure. I should probably give him something colourful to fit his parrot pet or a jungel aesthetic.

Scar: business suit, something akin to a snake oil salesman. He will scam you, and Jellie is his partner in crime.

Jimmy: giving him the coal miner aesthetic, he is not escaping the canary allegations and his pet is not helping his case, fairly roughed up looking since he's always out like 1st or 2nd.

Gem: something cottage core to fit her deer companion, I'm experimenting with her first with details so she'll probably be the first to get a finalized design.

Scott: his aesthetic is a beach outfit to match his seal pet, something more fancy hence why I keep drawing him with a towel skirt.

Pearl: something rebellious, loner wolf aesthetic to match her in series character and to fit Tilly.

Lizzie: I'm not sure with her, maybe a princess theme since her pet is an axolotl which is a nod to Empires Season 1.

Joel: he's got the frog so something swamp themed. Yes, I did pick the frogs so he cannot escape the Shrek allegations.

Tango: going with a warm fluffy winter aesthetic to fit his moth pet, thought it would also be nice to have him all cozy and it would make certain pairings interesting cause just imagine Tango and Scott in the same room, prepared for opposite seasons.

Martyn: I'm really unsure. I drew him in an athletic fit but that feels like less of a theme than the others, I feel I can get something better maybe something that matches his dog pet.

Etho: currently its a detective theme but not confident in it, his pet is a coyote, would be silly if he was a mix of Pearl and Martyn aesthetic but that also feels lazy.

Cleo: something fancy. She deserves a fancy aesthetic like the type of person who invites people to a house party. Their pet being snakes, which actually inspires creative ways to blend player's pets into them like snake hair or deer ears(Gem).

Impulse: I had lumberjack? But I don't think it fits. Miner also fits but that's Jimmy's aesthetic. Maybe if he was paired with Jimmy I would allow the overlap actually.

mmm tw nsfw

hotch chaining his collar under his desk, telling him to come get his treat

he just whines of course (he knows better than to talk), because his owners cock is just an inch too far for him to reach with his mouth ): hes pulling the chain with every musle in his body but he cannot get far enough.

hotch seems disappointed in him, so hw tries so so hard. he cant even help himself with his paws, cause they are locked securely in leather mittens, restricing his movement. he whines and whines and cries. he just wants to be good.

but hotch just pulls back and stands up.

“how am i supposed to let you have your cock out when you cant even be a good pet? i tried letting you prove yourself.” he says as he reaches for the cage and the key resting on the table.

there are tears in spencers eyes, but he knows its for the better. whatever his master tells him to do, however disgusting, its for the better.

I’m literally screaming and crying rn this is so…. Chefs kiss. I love love love him being set up to fail and getting punished for the inevitable outcome urghhhh <333 Also omg I’ve been soooo missing out with the whole puppy gear thing bc it would make everything so much harder for him without his paws!!

Hotch def just jacks himself off over Spencer’s face afterwards, telling him that he’d be able to help if he’d just tried harder.

Literary crimes under the cut!

It takes him weeks to be unlocked. Hotch keeps giving him chances to prove himself, but he always fails. There’s never a way to win, but he has to try, needs to show how obedient and deserving he is.

When Spencer’s caught in his dog bed with three of his fingers inside himself, grinding his cage into the fabric, Hotch decides to give him another task. If he clearly thinks he can get off like that, then why shouldn’t he? He’s obviously desperate, so it should be easy, even with the cage.

Hotch settles himself down to watch at first, enjoying the noises of frustration when nothing quite works. Spencer’s trying so hard, but the angle’s all wrong and he just can’t get his fingers deep enough for the stimulation he needs. He turns to look at Hotch after a while, whining and thrusting back with a pleading look in his eyes, begging him to help. He could definitely do it with Hotch’s assistance, he’s sure of it.

But when he looks back, Hotch isn’t even looking at him anymore. Instead, he’s turned his attention to a book, completely absorbed in that instead of the display going on by the fireplace. But he hasn’t told Spencer to stop, so he just carries on for what feels like forever, only ever managing to tease himself as his cock tries and fails to harden over and over again, as his the tips of his fingers only ever manage to just about brush past his prostate.

Eventually, Hotch closes his book, setting it down beside him.

“You still haven’t finished?” he asks, and he sounds more like he’s asking if Spencer’s finished sorting witness statements than if he’s managed to make himself cum yet.

Spencer shakes his head desperately as he pounds his fingers into himself. He can’t have his master disappointed with him again. It’s too late though, because Hotch stands up.

“I guess you didn’t need it that badly, did you? Stop squirming around and put your plug back in, puppy, it’s time for bed.”

Hotch gets himself off that night. Spencer, of course, doesn’t. He just curls up on top of the duvet at Hotch’s feet, his cock throbbing with no way to relieve the ache, listening to the sounds of the older man’s hand and his hitching breath.

[machinavillage]

i feel like if i vent about this or talk about this im like. Showing Weakness on the internet and will get harassed for it. but reality check is i have 5 active followers here and the search function hardly works on this site!

anyways if youre trans you might not want to read this negativity lol ✌️

i think its very annoying when cis ppl want to say Things Are Getting Better!!!!

im not saying i dont want them to try to be positive but im not receptive to that shit unless another trans person says it. because from my point of view, for my entire fucking life, ive had it made clear to me that everyone secretly hates me or thinks im a freak.

the things people point to as "progress" is just generic "hashtag trans rights!!!" shit. a lot of support for hypothetical trans people, but not for the real life people. and for most dumb fuck liberals who call themselves allies, all it takes to sway their opinion is to hear the word "pedophile". all they need is to see 1 trans person get called a pedo and they go "😲 oh my GOD!? pedophiles! im against that!". or hell, not even a real person. make up a hypothetical trans woman that doesnt fucking exist, and it sways peoples opinions. because youre soooooo fucking stupid. so stupid. so so stupid.

at best, most ppl who call themselves allies cannot make it through an interaction with a real life trans person without saying some dumb shit like "wow youre really nice for a transgender!!!" and they certainly couldnt have a friendship or relationship with a trans person and actually care about them.

its just. to me most positivity will fall on deaf ears because. i know if i were hate crimed like most ppl in my life wouldnt care unless theyre lgbt. thats it. cis straight people would not. and ive always known this forever basically. a lot of being trans is having it communicated to you that youre just free game for people and theres no support for you when youre harmed. and then ppl make shit up and act like there's mountains of support for your when theres none.

but hey im also really mean and have no forgiveness or tolerance for ppl who were extremely transphobic and "learned better". ill never trust you and hope you die early. you're so so so stupid for falling for this shit and i have no faith in your judgement or intelligence in the future if you fall too deep into the transphobia hole.

like if at any point in my life, you've contributed to any of the above, contributed to reminding me that im always alone, no matter what, for something i cant change, i wish you would die alone and painfully. i wish your life would fall apart in front of you and everyone leaves you. hope your dogs or cats or other pets hate you

[cyberphuck]

Pit Bulls are not dangerous dogs. I have been bitten, sometimes severely, by many dogs because I like dogs and will pet them even though they're actively biting me (that one dude in Tennessee's face when he came into his yard and found his dog attacking me while I pet him and laughed in delight is a sight I will not soon forget). The dogs that have bitten me most often are little dogs, not big ones. Big dogs, even untrained ones, will slink off and tuck their tail and hide under the porch. Little dogs will do their best to fuck you up (this is not to say that little dogs are bad! no dog is bad. Little dogs were bred to hunt rats with extreme prejudice, and you can't hunt rats if you get scared easily). Dogs do not have hands. They interact with the world with their noses and mouths. If a stranger was getting in your personal space and bothering or scaring you, you'd slap or shove them away. Dogs can't slap or shove (I mean they can, but they're not evolved to use their vital walking limbs as defensive weapons), so they growl, snap, and bite. When a dog is interacting with another dog in play, they growl and snap at each other, sometimes biting or worrying (shaking) each other's ears or tails (Achilles does this to Mimi all the time and she fucking hates it, lol). When a dog is interacting with another dog to show dominance, it growls and snaps at the other dog to make it back down (momma dogs do this to puppies!). When dogs get into a fight, they fight with their teeth because they cannot grab, bearhug, slap, scratch, or punch (again, dogs can scratch but their claws are for digging, not offense). "Well they attack without warning you" She probably DID warn you, repeatedly, and you weren't paying attention. "They're powerful and have big teeth" yeah that's how dogs are shaped. Even little dogs are strong for their size. "The jaw and neck muscles are designed to--" have you ever seen the neck muscles on a horse? I knew a lady whose horse threw its head back and caved in half her face by accident, and no one ran forward to say the horse should be put down or even that it was the horse's fault. When a cat acts frightened and lashes out, we call Jackson Galaxy and he weeps over it and helps people to learn how to re-train the cat and give it the love, attention, and care it needs. When a dog acts frightened and lashes out we put it down. Sometimes it doesn't even get that far, because no one wants a dog with a scary face or big teeth. All the "poster child" pitbulls are the Velvet House Hippos with big wet eyes and a smiling floppy mouth that doesn't show their teeth. If a medium or large sized dog isn't quiet, isn't gentle, isn't sweet, doesn't wear a pink collar and lil pajamas, it gets left at the shelter. Pet less. Walked less. Loved less. Because it's not fun and cute, even though we bred them to have a job and then fired them when we didn't need them anymore. "I hope no one kills me for the crime of being small" yeah well I hope no one kills me for the crime of being big.

Do you know what the consensus on pit bulls is? Some people say the negative stereotypes surrounding them are unfair, while others insist they’re inherently dangerous dogs that shouldn’t be kept as pets. Both views are biased to some degree, so I don’t know which to believe.

they're just. dogs.

and same as german shepards, same as huskies, same as dalmations, they have specific breed requirements and aren't right for every home! also like all dogs, they have to be trained to be a reliable and safe pet. but with their needs met and good training, they're about the same as any other dog in their size range (with individual exceptions for personal history and trauma of course)

mm thinking about just being really soft with my puppy. with today being a lazy day, I could spend time just holding you in my lap, cuddling my puppy like a little stuffed animal. running my fingers through your hair and kissing your neck and just being so gentle. I want my highness to be able to completely relax in the comfort of his knight's embrace. I'd love to just praise you and tell you how cute you are, how sleepy you look, how much I enjoy spending time with you like this. I could make a game out of learning which pet names get you the most relaxed. I could call you my little bunny dog, my sweetheart, my star boy. and, of course, you get all flustered and call me mean and a bully. and, as always, I've got a way to make you quiet. pressing my fingers on your tongue and keeping your mouth busy. pushing them farther and farther down your throat the more you attempt to protest so you learn pretty quickly to just let me have my fun, that the faster you stop fighting, the longer you can enjoy all the things I do to you. but at the same time, you make such cute noises when you're being difficult, whining and squirming and having a hard time speaking. not that you're supposed to speak, because that requires thinking and you, my pretty boy, aren't meant to be doing much of that at all, are you? I'm just looking out for you, doing what's best for my darling princey, because I know that using your little doggy brain is just too much sometimes. but you wont let me have my way so easily, would you? my dear highness is always so stubborn. to fight back, you could pull away, push me, or even bite your royal knight in an attempt to save face. but if you tried that, I would take advantage of our size difference and hold you still while I kiss you hard, refusing you any sort of movement until you stand down and submit to me. and when you do, I'd reward you with soft neck kisses and murmurs of how you're such a good toy, your highness. wandering hands that sneak their way under clothes and onto sensitive areas. figuring out your favorite things and combining them to make you as needy as possible. and because this is meant to be calming for you, it'd be a crime to torture you with edging, so I continue despite your warnings of impending release. but the thing is, I don't stop after that. this is meant to be relaxing, right? and what better to get you nice and sleepy than cumming over and over, until you can't anymore. and the best part is that the more orgasms I can coax out of you, the weaker you'll be and the harder of a time you'll have resisting my touch. wouldn't that be just so cute, your highness?

AMAZON PRIME VIDEO – THE BLACK BOX – 2020

Emotional, strong, even powerful, and yet intellectually perilous science fiction. Imagine you can extract from a brain (if it is only the brain and not the muscles and the bones too) what makes someone that very particular someone, hence their “mental” essence, and then you can keep it digitalized on a hard disk of some sort in the cloud if you want. Imagine you can transfer this digitalized mental essence to another body and this other body becomes the new vessel of the digitalized mental essence of the first individual.

First of all, it is impossible to do this as of today and probably for quite some time still. Second, it is unethical to use the body or a brain-dead person as a vessel to contain the mental essence of some other body plain dead at the time of the shift. How can you get the consent of the one or the other? Impossible in the film since the first person is dead, and the second person is brain-dead. Neither can say yes or no. Why not transfer that mental essence of this dead person number one into a chimpanzee, so that his mummy can play with it as a family pet? No problem of consent or disagreement. Animals have not reached the age of reason and cannot say yes or no to anything imposed onto them in labs or nature. Why not endow dogs with a – Christian of course – soul?

The worst part is that the doctor or scientist who does this transfer is the fact she is the mother of the first individual who just died, and she tries to keep her son alive in another body. That is egocentric, selfish, immoral, and what’s more sexist since it is the mother, hence a woman, who wants to commit this crime against science. It can only work in the film because of the virtual situation created by hypnosis and manipulated by Virtual Reality. Add some Artificial Intelligence and you will have the perfect suicidal solution to the overcrowding of the planet. All the guinea pigs will become killers or self-killers because they will never be able to accept the schizophrenia of their double reality and the alienation of both personalities forced to live together. Who could be that criminal in their minds to imagine such torture imposed on human beings?

Death is death, and it is a great chance for humanity that we are not eternal. Imagine the overpopulation we would have if Neolithic people had been able to survive till today. In fact, today’s world would never have been reached because humanity would have self-destroyed itself along the way.

Dr. Jacques COULARDEAU

NEVER IMAGINABLE WITH WHITE PEOPLE IN THE LEAD, ISN’T IT?

A film that wants to be science-fiction. So, learn the lessons that emerge from it.

Let black doctors or scientists get into a hospital “laboratory” and the most unimaginable horrors will take place.

Let black people be fully treated in a hospital and they will become guinea pigs, especially in the hands of black doctors.

Let a mother treat her son and the worst possible crime will take place under your own nose and in front of your own eyes.

Shall I go on?

If this is not pure racism laced with some sexism, I just wonder what would qualify. How can anyone imagine such man-made scientific schizophrenia to be possible in the hands and under the scalpel of a doctor, a scientist? I guess it is urgent to have clear regulations and controls on such activities. Because be sure that wild clandestine medical experiments are happening every day in the world.

The best intentions, if they are really good, can produce the worst biased visions of humanity, its future and social life. This film is a caricature and as such is telling a quite racist and sexist story. Was it the intention? How many peiople are going to feel justified in their biases by this film? Too many.

Racism is like minimalist music, very few notes and always the same, over and over again.

VERSION FRANÇAISE

Une science-fiction émotionnelle, forte, voire puissante, et pourtant intellectuellement périlleuse. Imaginez que vous puissiez extraire d'un cerveau (s'il ne s'agit que du cerveau et non des muscles et des os) ce qui rend quelqu'un unique, donc son essence « mentale », et que vous puissiez ensuite la conserver numérisée sur un disque dur de quelque sorte que ce soit ou dans le nuage cosmique informatique si vous le souhaitez. Imaginez que vous puissiez transférer cette essence mentale numérisée dans un autre corps et que cet autre corps devienne le nouveau godet, coupe ou hanap, en un mot le vulgaire récipient de l'essence mentale numérisée du premier individu.

Tout d’abord, cela est impossible à l’heure actuelle et probablement encore pour longtemps. Deuxièmement, c’est contraire à l'éthique d'utiliser le corps ou une personne en état de mort cérébrale comme récipient pour contenir l'essence mentale d'un autre corps tout simplement mort au moment du changement. Comment obtenir le consentement de l’un ou de l’autre ? Impossible dans le film puisque la première personne est morte, et la deuxième personne est en mort cérébrale. Aucun des deux ne peut dire oui ou non. Pourquoi ne pas transférer l’essence mentale de ce mort numéro un dans un chimpanzé, afin que sa maman puisse jouer avec lui comme avec un animal de compagnie ? Aucun problème de consentement ou de désaccord. Les animaux n’ont pas atteint l’âge de raison et ne peuvent dire oui ou non à tout ce qui leur est imposé dans les laboratoires ou dans la nature. Il ne manquerait plus que les chiens aient une âme, naturellement chrétienne, cela va de soi.

Le pire, c'est que la doctoresse ou la scientifique qui effectue ce transfert est la mère du premier individu qui vient de mourir et qu'elle essaie de garder son fils en vie dans un autre corps. C’est égocentrique, égoïste, immoral et qui plus est sexiste puisque c’est la mère, donc une femme, qui veut commettre ce crime contre la science. Cela ne peut fonctionner dans le film qu’en raison de la situation virtuelle créée par l’hypnose et manipulée par la Réalité Virtuelle. Ajoutez un peu d’Intelligence Artificielle et vous obtiendrez la solution suicidaire parfaite à la surpopulation de la planète. Tous les cobayes deviendront des tueurs ou des auto-tueurs car ils ne pourront jamais accepter la schizophrénie de leur double réalité et l'aliénation des deux personnalités contraintes de vivre ensemble. Qui est à ce point mentalement criminel pour imaginer une telle torture à imposer à des êtres humains.

La mort est la mort, et c'est une grande chance pour l'humanité que nous ne soyons pas éternels. Imaginez la surpopulation que nous aurions si les peuples du Néolithique avaient pu survivre jusqu’à aujourd’hui. En fait, le monde d’aujourd’hui n’aurait jamais été atteint parce que l’humanité se serait auto-détruite en cours de route.

Sfw and nsfw headcannons for crewel and Crowley (seperately )? With female reader plz

SFW/NSFW for Crowley and Crewel! Hope you enjoy!

Fem Reader Insert

MDNI 18+ ONLY. Nsfw will be under the read more line.

Sfw: 

Dire Crowley:

This man is cheap, Like expect that during this relationship, however fear not! For he is so humbly gracious to have lavish vacations with you at the expense of the student body.

 Though for my fellow Crowley hoes out there, Crowley can be romantic. Crowley is doing his “best” and honestly it’s kind of endearing how this man flounders at trying his hand at “wooing” you. Expect plucked flowers and shiny things on your pillows, and over the top letters he has stuffed under the door of your room.

True to bird fashion, has attempted to make a nest for you and ngl it is pretty comfy.

He has horrid fashion taste, never let him pick out your clothes.

Crowley absolutely loves it when you stroke his hair, but really melts when you stroke his back, he covers you in his cloak like a bird covers themselves in their wings.

The more time you are with him, the more he trusts you enough to take his mask off. This is a serious matter, he even drops all pretenses of his goofy persona. You’re one of the few people in all of Twisted Wonderland who has seen his full face, that is something he can ever truly be grateful for.

He totally gives you sweet pecks throughout the day, though probably not in front of the students lol. He totally would in front of his staff members, likes to rub it in that he in fact does have an S/O

He totally humble-brags about you.

His hair is actually pretty nice to run your fingers through, and its unfair how nice it is.

Smells like parchment and ink, with a bit like a sharp wind from above. Bury your nose into him, and smell the soft scent of the forest.

Divus Crewel:

HUSBAND MATERIAL

Fuck, okay, he is actually the most reliable man here and competent as hell.

A real gentleman, and pretty respectful of your boundaries. 

A day starts with a morning kiss and ends the night with a goodnight kiss. His mouth was made for kissing and he's the type to kiss you slow but deeply.

This man will spoil you, clothes, dates, a stimulating conversation and he’s genuinely invested in you.

You get to wear his coat and it's so smooth under your hands. You feel fancy as fuck wearing it. Smells like him.

Unfortunately due to his job, and Crowley's malarkey, dates tend to be in between what little time you two can make for yourselves. However, even simple little dates between you feel sweet, and the vacations leave them quite…enthralling.

Honestly, Crewel helps pick out your clothes and upgrades your closet. Will respect your decisions in the end, but low key judges crimes against fashion. *aka Crowley*

Will make anything you want. Man has a binder dedicated to ideas he has for you. Seriously, color coded and seasonal outfits.Strolls through the town with you, fingers laced together. He presses a kiss on your knuckles that make you swoon.

Adores the hell out of dogs, so hopefully you like them too, or else this ain't gonna last long. If there is a dog near by you bet your sweet ass he's gonna pet it. Wait one day, he's gonna show up with a box of puppies and you can't even stop him.

He smells like expensive cologne, a hint of musk, leather and a subtle spice you can't name, but God does it make you wanna bury your nose into his skin. To his displeasure, he can't always get rid of the scent of potions on him. 

Nsfw:

Dire Crowley:

Okay, I'm gonna be super honest with you. I cannot see this is starting, than a hot hate-fucking in his office.

Birdman is submissive.

You're gonna have to pull the reigns here, he does top occasionally and ugh he's pretty good at dirty talk. He's into edging can you even belive the audacity of this man?

If you love marking, recieving or giving, he has lipstick for it you know. Just saying is all.

He has a cute dick, better than he deserves. Its smooth and girthy, and Crowley is pretty pale so is his dick. But his head is cute flushed pink. His balls are sensitive and he loses it if you suck on them.

This relationship started as a hatefuck to a romance

Despite Dire's shady self, he truly does care about you. Wants to make sure your needs are also being meet, having you cum around him, screaming his name makes his wing flutter in pleasure.

Why he is so generous, he's more than willing to surrender himself to you as your toy to use. Tie his hands back and bounce on his cock till his balls are empty and leave him there dirty with his cold cum dripping down his balls.

You have his heart all in a twist when you grab his face to kiss him deeply when he cums in you.

This man has a fucking humiliation kink I just fucking know it. He praises himself too much, but the insults have him leaking crying "yes yes tell me how bad I've been! Spit on me!" Degrade him, step on him, call him useless, just as so long as you remember to reassure him he's still wonderful and that you love him.

Divus Crewel:

This man doms and there is no questioning it.

Dom/sub play have you seen that whip and collar. No way that man doesn't have that kink.

Mod is frothing at the mouth

He isn't into gagging as much as one would expect him too. Oh he totally is into it, but he perfers hearing your moans and pleas unfiltered as you try not to cum agaisnt his orders.

He has a big cock and we all know it. Thick at the base, the head a beautiful red hue, with this thick vein under it that feels good to run your tounge on. Curves slightly to the left. His balls are well rounded, and a bit heavy. Cums comes out pretty thick.

Loves watching you hump his leg to get off, though he might have to punish you to "behave" better.

He has so many toys for you, though getting a dildo of his own cock is a gift in itself and have to work for it. Plays with those vibrator with a remote, watching you squirm trying to find relief by squeezing your thighs as he presses the button for more power.

He's really fantastic with aftercare.

He gives you that hot kiss, tounge sucking when he presses his hips into you, cock hitting the spot that has you rocking into him for more.

He has custom lingerie made for you, the types that make you feel like the sexiest being in the world. This man will fuck the living daylights out of you.

Scratch his scalp,  tug his hair makes him buck relentlessly in you.

[hazard-symbols-that-fuck-hard]

I mean, there’s no consistent logic that would lead you to the conclusion that pigs are okay to eat and dogs aren’t. (Hell, with how we measure animal intelligence, pigs actually score slightly higher than dogs do.) But even knowing that, the idea of eating a dog makes me deeply, deeply uncomfortable.

In America, we have strict views on what an animal can and cannot be used for. Eating a horse is morally incorrect, and most people have never even thought about riding a cow, even though both animals are capable of both.

Dogs are to be kept as pets and occasionally as workers, but never food.

Pigs can be eaten, but keeping one as a pet is gross.

The truth is, our ideas of animal ethics are based on culture, not on logic.

In most of India, they also don’t eat dogs, but for the exact opposite reason. There, most dogs are considered lowly pests, too disgusting to eat. Killing them (while illegal since 2001) is morally permissible. And with how the vast majority of those dogs are unvaccinated, rabies is a real, present risk, especially when large swaths of the population don’t have access to rabies vaccines.

I’m okay with the idea of dogs being shot in India. With how awful and scary rabies is, I agree that spay and neuter programs are too slow when so many people are perishing.

And at the same time, slaughtering a cow is a high moral crime.

-

What’s even more interesting is when it’s the exact same animals being given different labels, and thus being treated differently. In Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat, Hal Herzog describes a lab he visited which held 15,000 research mice. They were cared for at the highest standard at the time.

However, in the same facility, they had another type of mouse. The pest mouse. In a place where cross contamination must be avoided at all costs, they needed to be killed at all costs. And how did they go about it? Sticky traps.

No ethics board would ever approve of an experiment where mice are intentionally lured onto sticky traps and left to suffer and die. And here these scientists were, doing just that. But since they were pest mice and not lab mice, it suddenly became morally permissible.

And the real kicker here? Not only were the pest mice the same species as the lab mice, but they were the exact same mice!

With a facility holding so many mice for so long, leakage was inevitable. And the moment that a mouse hit the floor and scurried away, its moral status vanished.

What do you guys think of Amber Hansen’s The Story of Chickens: A Revolution?

Long story short, the concept of this performance art piece is as follows:

- Keep a chicken coop in the city so people can get to know the birds

- Host a public dinner where the chickens will be slaughtered, cooked, and served in front of an audience

It never ended up happening, because after public outcry from the proposal, the law actually intervened and said she couldn’t do it.

Submas twins who's Pokemon go to their SO after getting in trouble with them. My sister's dog does this when he gets in trouble. He comes wherever I am and gets in my lap looking all sad trying to get my pity and love cause his mom is mad at him. If his crime was really bad he expects me to save him

My dog Dixie does something similar, except she walks right to me looking guilty meanwhile I’m confused on why and now hunting for clues.

🔲Ingo🔲

Ingo knows Haxorus didn’t mean to break the glass door. The Pokémon was just trying to mark its territory, but the glass didn’t hold up with its powerful axe like tusks.

“Haxorus!” Was all Ingo said sternly, before the large dragon type lowered his head.

Ingo couldn’t say anything else before Haxorus runs off. Following Ingo dead pans at the sight of his large dragon type cuddling up with you on the couch.

Still looking as guilt and as sad as ever, and letting out sad growls sounds.

“You have got to be kidding me.”

You pet Haxorus “I’m sorry Ingo.”

-

“Excadrill! Look at all the mud you brought in! That’s very bad!” Ingo scolds the mole Pokémon.

The poor thing letting out a crying sound. You were just coming back from the kitchen, standing in the door way when Excadrill ran towards you.

Tracking even more mud into the house.

And hiding behind your leg, holding onto you while whining.

“Aw it’s alright.” You gentle pat their head.

Ingo looks ready to lose it “clean them up please, I’ll mop the floor.”

And with how furiously he was mopping it’s safe to say he’s a little hurt.

🔳Emmet🔳

It started when the power went out. Emmet is use to this but sighed heavily, he’s going to hate the electricity bill this mouth.

With a flashlight the ready and with it being dead quiet you could hear him scolding galvantula.

The spider found a way around all Emmet’s barriers and safety locks to keep them away from the fuse box.

“Hey get back here!”

You were sat on the couch waiting for the power said spider scurries over to you and rests on your chest.

All eight eyes looking at for sadly along with sad clicking sounds.

The gasp you hear sounded like someone found a body.

“Oh! I see! You like them better than me!”

“Em galvantula just doesn’t want you yelling at them.”

“After all our bonding my partner Pokémon goes to you for safety, I-“ he takes a deep breath “I’m calling the electric company and fixing this, you stay with the traitor.”

You laugh at Emmet’s pouting.

Galvantula is happy to not be getting scolded though! Their plan worked!

-

Archeops didn’t mean to knock the wedding picture off the wall and breaking the frame, he was just excited!

But the large bird squawks sadly and flies off right to you.

Wrapping around you like a backpack and nuzzling his head into your. Like you’d protect him from his trainers scolding.

“I cannot BELIEVE WHAT I AM SEEING!”

Emmet is so hurt by this, he’d never hurt his Pokémon, but no matter what he tries they all go right back to you.

“My one Pokémon don’t like meeeeee.”

He weeps into your lap.

“They love you Em, they just want to get out of being told off, a lot of Pokémon do that.”

He only cries.

Emmet’s a big baby give him a minute.

Humans are Weird: D&D Part 3

( Please come see me on my new patreon and support me for early access to stories and personal story requests :D https://www.patreon.com/NiqhtLord Every bit helps) Human Barbarian: I roll to decapitate the shop keeper. Alien DM: Is there a reason you keep on decapitating LITERALLY everyone you meet? Barbarian: My character can’t die unless he falls in battle. Alien DM: But they aren’t battles if you kill them in one blow. Barbarian: True, but my guy has been around for hundreds of years and now just kills people for fun. Alien DM: *Looks at other party members* Is this normal? Wizard: Honestly it’s pretty tame for a barbarian. Rogue: At least he’s not the bard that became a necromancer. Alien: What happened with them? Wizard: They became a necromancer just so they could woo the woman that killed herself after talking to him. Alien: *Looks at Necromancer* Really? Necromancer: I was very proud of my seduction streak and I wasn’t about to let death break it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alien: Why do you always pick humanoid characters? Alien: Why not team up with something that is as large as a bear? Thief: We used to have a Loxodon fighter in the party, didn’t end well. Alien: What happened? Monk: We got trapped in a room flooding with water and only one way out. Warlock: The Loxodon insisted on going first through the doorway because they were afraid of water, but then became wedged in the tiny frame and couldn’t get free. Alien: How did you escape? Monk: We didn’t; we all drowned to death. Alien: If you all died then how are you here talking with me? Thief: Let’s just say we owe a man of questionable magic practices a lot of money. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Warrior: Wizard, cast fireball on my sword! Alien Wizard: Why? Warrior: So it will catch on fire and do fire damage as well! DM: I’ll allow it. Alien Wizard: Okay. *rolls a nat 20* DM: Your fireball impacts the sword dead on and melts it instantly. Warrior: What? DM: What do you think happens to cheap metal after it’s been super-heated? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DM: As you sift through the remains of the now fallen lich lord you come across his most powerful weapon. Alien players: *getting excited* DM: A cursed blade slaked in the blood of a thousand thousand victims, each one adding their strength to whomever wields this mighty blade; the most powerful weapon you have ever come across. Alien players: *Really excited now* Alien warrior: Does it have a name? DM: *Nods* It is called……the Bunny Fluffer. Alien warrior: What? You can’t be serious. DM: I did say it was a curse blade. Alien: How can a blade called the “Bunny Fluffer” be cursed?!? DM: Every time you use it in battle you must loudly announce that you are attacking with the bunny fluffer. Alien warrior: You monster! That’s so evi- Alien warrior: *Now realizing why it is cursed* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Human: If I feed a Locathah sushi, am I committing a hate crime or unknowingly making them a cannibal? Alien DM: WTF man?!?!? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Human DM: You find yourself in a very suspicious village. Alien: You can’t just label an entire town as suspicious. Human: Roll a perception check then. Alien: *Rolls 20* Human DM: You see the town square barren save for a giant stone slab at the very center, the surface of it covered in strange red glyphs that seem to bleed the longer you stare at it. Human DM: The towns people all full length cloaks that hide their appearance with hoods so deep you cannot make out a single detail of their faces. They speak no words nor make a sound as they shift and to and fro between the buildings. Human DM: You stare up at the sky and see it thick with grey clouds that appear to bulge and retract randomly as if they are holding something within. Alien: Alright, alright, we get it. Alien: No need to be so on the nose about it. Human: You walked passed a mass murder drenched in blood because one of you saw the bar tenders dog run outside and wanted to go pet it. Human DM: I take no chances now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alien DM: You find yourself locked in the mansion, the body of the host laying across the ballroom floor as all the guests and staff look on. Alien DM: Any one of them could be the killer. Human Warlock: I say we lock all the doors and burn the house down. Human Paladin: What? Human Rogue: That’s a bit extreme. Warlock: Listen, I’ll cast a spell that will make anyone with a guilt free conscious fire resistant. Warlock: That way when the house is on fire only the killer will catch fire and everyone else would be safe. Rogue: I guess that might work…. Paladin: Still… Warlock: Look, I’ll even stay inside to prove how trust worthy it is while you all wait outside and bar the doors. Paladin: Very well. *some time later after the mansion burned down* *Party sees only the warlock remaining among the ashes* Paladin: Impossible! Paladin: They couldn’t all have been the killer! Warlock: True, but their minds were not guilt free so I’m afraid they caught fire. Rogue: So you knowingly just had us kill an entire mansion’s worth of people. Paladin: How are you still alive?! Warlock: Simple; I did not feel the slightest bit guilty about it. Warlock: *Proceeds to remove an artifact that collects the souls of the recently deceased* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alien DM: Pick your characters. Human: I am a Halfling necromancer. Human 2: I am an elf necromancer. Human 3: I am a human necromancer. Alien: Seriously?! Alien: Does no one want to be something else? Human 4: I am an orc shaman. Alien: Well thank y- Human 4: That dabbles in necromancy. Alien: Gods damnit! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Human DM: And with that you have finally slain the great dragon Human DM: The town of Scabersburgs will forever be in your debt. Alien Wizard: That was a stupid encounter, let’s end it here. *Human DM makes note as the group leaves for the night* *Next week’s encounter* Human DM: You return to find the town of Scaversburg in the grips of a deadly plague. Human DM: The town’s folk are being driven mad as over the last few days many of them have begun growing scales across their body, talons where their fingers once were, and some have even begun sprouting lizard like wings and tails. Human DM: As they see you all return to the village their collective shouts of anger roar across the town as the entire city springs forth to hunt you down. Alien Wizard: Wait what!? Alien Wizard: I call bullshit; how could this suddenly happen?! Human DM: Well, if you had waited long enough to hear the dragons dying words he placed a powerful curse on his blood that any who should drink of it shall become as he once was. Alien Wizard: That’s still bullshit! Alien Wizard: No way the villagers would just walk up to a dead dragon and drink its blood. Human DM: Unless because you failed to dispose of the body the blood seeped into the ground and mixed with the towns water supply, thus contaminating everyone. *Group angrily looks at Wizard that encouraged them to leave early* Human DM: Roll for initiative. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
