Male omega anatomy

Here is my poorly drawn version of male omega's anatomy :)

In my mind i picture that when growing up, the omega's testis stop growing past certain age and when near presentation they will gradually slithers back up from the sack and settle internally. The testiless sack then will slowly be reabsorbed to the body.

The penis will be the smallest of all the other dynamics (picture the biggest omegan phallus will be comparable to average beta ones)

I kinda detest the version where their uterus is connected to rectum because of ✨sanitary reasons✨so i made my own version.

When it comes to fertility the male omegas ability to impregnate is very diminished as previously mentioned, the testis are not developed enough to create sufficient amount of sperm to secure concievement. Yet they compensate it by their very fertile ovaries who are highly efficient at their job. While female betas' pregnancy will result in only one child with twins and triplets being out of norm, the omegas regardless of sex will carry litters of 2-3 children on average.The male gender will have predispositions to having just two babies at a time because of the strain but the pregnancy will be no different from others.

ps: There could be grammar errors, my first language isn't english!

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

Chan ‗ ❍

First of all, he wouldn't be weirded out or immature about it at all, he grew up with women in his family so he wouldn't be completely oblivious. Second thing, he seems to be natually very nurturing and attentive, so you know for sure that you'd be well taken care of, more than usual.

Depending on how this time of the month would be for you, he'd act accordingly. For example, if you are usually on time or late, if you tend to suffer more or less. In general he'd probably remember the days/week and always make sure to have a little bit of every essential thing at home beforehand. Sanitary products, painkillers, snacks, comfort food; you name it, he got it. Wether you lived together or not, doesn't matter.

In the best case scenario you'd just be having a shitty day and he would make sure to spend time with you (full day if he's not working, and even then he'd check on you multiple times), taking care of you, cuddling and probably babying you more than you need. And you'd let him of course, even just to show him you appreciated him caring for you. He would be really attentive but... chill at the same time. He just wants you to be comfortable, not further stress you out.

On the other hand, if you were someone who usually hurt a lot or maybe had some issues related to your condition, then he would be more clingy. If hugs and cuddles were an actual solution you'd be CURED.

He hated seeing you in pain regardless, but if the pain in question was out of the norm/more severe he would absolutely be in the worst mood. Again, every supply possible would to be 100% ready at the right times, and you truly wouldn't be allowed to lift a finger.

"Channie, baby, I've been handling this stuff since forever, I'll be fine, okay?" and then he'd frown and pout like "But I want to take care of my baby, that's the least I can do". Of course you wouldn't be able to refuse him even if you wanted to, so you'd just end up accepting the help making sure to thank him all the time to let him know how grateful you were for him. <3

Minho ‗ ❍

Minho just kind of learned along the way how to take care of you at the best of his abilities. Something that seems to be very important to him is health, and you having your period to him it's almost like a seasonal cold. Something that just kind of happens? He would learn which foods or beverages help the pain/body, or the things that would make you feel better, but he'd be kinda random about it? lol.

"You know what? I really feel like eating some good meat for dinner" and he'd pull some shit like "Actually, I was thinking of salmon for tonight. You know, it would be very good for you now", Not gonna lie you would be lowkey impressed that he bothered to search up stuff like that in the first place. He wouldn't be pushy though, he couldn't deny you even if he tried. Want a specific dinner/dessert? It's yours. You want to watch a movie and cuddle? Done. Or do you just want to sleep and hug? Good enough for him. He just really wants you to have a calm and comfortable day.

This being handled as a health matter would also mean that he'd probably be quite precise with keeping track of the days/week. If being irregular wasn't a usual thing for you, one day late and he'd be asking questions lol.

"How are you feeling?" "Do you need anything from the store?" "Need any help?" and so on. Especially if we were talking about a person with more severe pain/issues.

At this point he would be a little more insistent with the whole "take care of yourself right" but only out of worry and you knew it. "I made some ginger tea for you" "But-" and you wouldn't be able to finish the sentence without him raising one eyebrow like 'I dare you'. Two minutes after the cup was EMPTY. You'd also get belly rubs with warm hands afterwards so it's okay :')

Minho would never miss to make you feel loved and taken care of, it's like he needs you to know that you can count on him whenever you need.

Changbin ‗ ❍

Changbin also grew up with a sister but I feel like he was the baby of the family so I think he'd try to replicate that more than anything. His s/o would be treated like royalty regardless, don't get me wrong, but during this time I feel like he'd feel bad for you and the fact that he can't really help, and would try to 'fix it' by indulging you a lot.

He probably wouln't keep track of the days/week, just in general. But, I think that he'd realize it quickly when you start acting a little off or being fatigued, and at that point he'd piece it together quickly and offer his help if he can. And if he can't, then he'll just settle with random gifts that could cheer you up. It could be something cute like a plushie, a treat like your favorite sweets, or something more unique like an expensive gift. You don't want him to spend such money on you, but you lowkey know that's his love language and appreciate it ten times more for it. He would also remind you of it "Shh, you know I love to spoil my princess", that would make you melt and he knows it well.

In a more severe case I think that he would make sure to not let you lift a finger. Dinner? Dishes? Medicines? Cuddles? Tissues for a particularly off moment? The remote being an inch too far? HE'S GOT IT. Changbin would also probably try to be there for you physically during this time and would get annoyed when he can't manage. At that point expect multiple calls and texts throught the day and maybe even a few cute selfies too that would never fail to make you smile and lift your mood.

If you happened to be crying, he would try to handle himself but just wouldn't be able to do it so you'd probably have a nice liberating ugly cry session together and then fall asleep hugged comfortably :(

He would also make sure that you're comfortable wherever you are, and that usually means completely laying on him, the best pillow in the house.

Hyunjin ‗ ❍

Hyunjin is shy and an empath, we know. I feel like at the beginning of your relationship he could be a little uncomfortable handling this situation, mainly because he'd like to help in some way but would be unsure of how to ask. You would also probably try to hide it or not mention it, you know like in early stages of any relationship, but out of shyness more than anything. You know he's a very sweet guy and he would probably feel bad that you feel bad. And he does.

One day during movie night you'd probably unintentionally flinch or hiss at the pain and then he'd decide that he had ENOUGH and would blurt out a "Can I do anything for you?". You'd be kind of taken aback but appreciate it a lot. You would give in "Yes actually" you wouldn't have to say it twice before he's back with what you asked for.

From that moment on I feel like it would be a process for him to learn how to know you and your needs and after a while he would just...do it. Which were your habits or comfort foods, your preferred type of sanitary products to use, what could make you uncomfortable and so on.

I feel like he wouldn't necessarily intentionally keep track of it but would randomly look at the date and go "Mhh, isn't this that time of the month?" and you'd probably show up with a belly ache and an extreme need of hugs so yeah he'd be like "I figured" and kind of laugh at you being cute.

You'd probably have something silly like a "Cursed week" playlist to cry to or a specific list of things to watch that would absolutely wreck you emotionally because why not. And you'd plan it together and go back to them like a routine. You probably have a very sad or angsty tv show/drama that you go back to once a month just to either cry your eyes out or comment together like two bitter old ladies. And you have a blast.

Hyunjin would try to be lowkey about it though. Once he learned how to properly take care of you he would just do things and not be obnoxious about it. Like he would be they type to leave a sticky note for you before leaving for work that said "Good morning my love. Remember to take it easy and take some medicine if you need, I love you <3"

In general I think that he would be the type to try and distract you as much as possible, wether it was with some nice cuddles to warm you up or even tease you to make you laugh. He could be out of pocket sometimes but that's exactly what makes it hilarious.

This is it for the hyung line! Maknae line link. Hope you enjoyed my silly writing, feel free to leave feebacks if you feel like it :')

[haleingstorm]

This is related to my previous questions.

Healers are not only those who heal, but also those who take care of bodies before giving them fire. At least that's how it is at Camp Half-blood. Will Solace was the one who took care of Percy Jackson before he was wrapped in a shroud and burned, as if he were just another camper and not their own mini-god. It was the most surreal experience of his life. He remembers how he washed his hands carefully and carefully, following all the sanitary norms and rules, as his brothers taught him before they left him. He separated himself from his body and his responsibilities, there was only the Apollonian healer and not Will Solace. Will Solace curled up in the corner of the room and sobbed instead of acting cool and flawless. Wash off the blood so that the skin is clean, sew up the wounds with transparent threads as tightly as possible, apply light makeup, do the job so well that it, a cold corpse, looks alive. Will succeeded, and Percy, as beautiful as ever, looked like he was sleeping lying on a marble deathbed, surrounded by shimmering silk, when Annabeth, with completely empty eyes, held up a torch to him, and the fire greedily consumed his body. Will still refuses to admit that those sobs were his. Now, under his fingers, a child's skin, so lovely, smooth and tender, untouched not by war, not by monsters, not by semi-divine pain. And life, the life that boils under this skin and which is so palpable. Percy is in a baby's body and he's alive. Will's own baby body feels so wrong. This body doesn't know how to remove Will Solace and leave only the healer.

I like the way you've written Will here and honestly the way it translates to just about every Apollo kid. The idea of compartmentalizing things at all cost is a fascinating concept for a healer and of course something that comes with age. I wonder how Will's siblings would feel seeing him compartmentalize like that.

I also like the way you talk about shrouds and setting someone up for burial. It's an interesting concept even though personally I've always envisioned the shroads covering the bodies completely.

Sutviprra Update and Addendum

I have reconsidered some parameters, and some were present in an early version but not stated clearly enough.

First of all - previous versions of trunks would need a lot of resources to sustain and no evolutionary pressure would make such a hypertrophy. I still don’t completely delete such length - if the allele that made current trunks happens, Sutviprra will get abnormally long trunks, but do they stay alive and pass them down - question to their environment. Norm, from now on is such. Sutviprra ancestors lived on the jungle river shores, and lengthened lips allowed them to forage from the bottom, catch fish and, potentially, stand up and reach a low branch with a fruit. As the jungles receded, they also started scavenging, and this is where tool use and sapience development really started.

Tentacle apparatus is not as massive, but still, this adaptation disrupts previous muscle connections. Sutviprra belong to phylum Tetragnata - “four jawed”. In their class, jaws are capable of both vertical and horizontal motion and upper jaws serve radula-like grate function, grinding down food. In Sutviprra, trunks took up so much muscle attachment, movement of radula became restricted. At first, lower jaws complemented the function, developing an incisor-like section for cutting the food items and improving a tongue to move the food under the radula. With diversification of the diet, chewing apparatus alone stopped being sufficient, but this is what incited a pressure to develop pre-ingestion processing, so tool use and fire.

Their class, Cryptotheria, arose in a frigid polar environment, so at first all their adaptations all work to preserve energy and heat. Previously continuously hermaphroditic, In this condition producing redundant organs is not worth the energy, and, given the population density, sequential hermaphroditism becomes a norm. Most of such creatures are born male and depending on their condition become female later in life. As the conditions change, the race for populating new niches has begun, while conditions stayed rather rough - boreal forests are the warmest regions available. Many creatures evolve some sort of childcare, as this improves their chances. Proximapters already had ovoviviparity nesting and nest guarding behaviors, while Cryptotheria diversified with different strategies. Marsupacrescentia just rely on long gestation, when the embryo can be atrophied or put in a hibernation depending on resources of availability, while Mellacrescensia adopt altricial young, but their scent glands mutate to secret a gel, that helps the young to develop to a proper degree. This allows them to fill in niches of smaller animals, both sanitary and migratory. One of such offshutes, a medium-sized omnivore, reaches Oujsoerian jungles, diversifying there into the Tropicasussa. Such creatures lose their fur, have long gestation periods and a high intelligence. Living on the river coasts, Tropicasussa encounter pressures that kick them into the Sutviprra path. Energy efficiently of Cryptotheria allows them to achieve such brain functions, Mellacrescensia’s high requirement for parental care establishes fundamentals for learning from the adults, Tropicasussa’s opportunism allows for a wide variety of energy sources and a big range of behaviors - smartness. Of course, there were different species of sophont Tropicasussa, and Sutviprra represent hybridisation of some of those, that ended up colonizing the continent.

❛ Did someone hurt you? ❜

"Oh man, where to start?" says Uzi, sighing. " How long you got? Every classmate I've ever had, my teacher, my dad, my mom, my boyfriend, my friend, this little keybug I was chasing, some corpo bootlicker, a skinwalker, a robot dinosaur-"

Brad looks down at her with his typical inscrutable expression. "No, I meant that you're bleeding."

"Oh. Oh yeah." She looks down at the cut on her leg, from which a dark, thick liquid oozes out. She's seated against a wall, waiting while her body's repair functions knit the gash closed. Meanwhile, the blood-oil mixture continues to pool onto the ground. "That's norm- Not normal, but expected, I guess."

Looking up at Brad, Uzi just offers him a small shrug. "You play with power tools, sometimes it bites you. And before you ask, not literally playing, but it's fine. It'll heal."

Wincing, Uzi presses a hand to the injury. Ichor trickles from between her fingers, but the pressure helps some of the pain go away. Damn whatever human programmed those pain sensors into drone bodies. When she looks up, Brad is kneeling at her side, reaching out with halting hands. "No, not like that," he says, voice even. "It's not sanitary. You should- Here."

He holds out a strip of dark cloth, glancing up at her. "Can I?"

"It's really okay, my repair systems are just a bit-" Uzi cuts herself off with a sigh and a frown. Her nerfed repair system will fix the problem before long, and she can just have a can to refill her oil reserves, but... The guy seems insistent. Let's just humor him.

"Yeah, alright," she says, pulling her hand away and sticking out her leg. "Don't worry about it being too tight. My circulation's not like a human's."

"Alright," says Brad. "Just let me know if it hurts."

Uzi's violet eyes just watch as he ties the scrap around her leg. He knows what he's doing, but his movements have a struggling gentleness to them, as if he's trying very hard not to be too forceful. "Doesn't hurt even a little bit," she says.

"Good." Brad gives the knot a final tug, rising to his feet. "That good enough?"

"It's fine. I've had worse, you know? That skinwalker I mentioned, she tore my core out," says Uzi, tracing a circle on her chest. "Now that hurt, but I used to be able to self-repair a lot faster. So, y'know. I got better."

She flashes a toothy grin, and Brad just frowns. "You're pretty... blithe about all this," he says.

"What, am I supposed to angst about it? No thanks, I've already got plenty of stuff to get emotional about, a little injury's pretty far down on the scale," she says, rolling her eyes. She almost folds her arms over her chest before remembering she doesn't want to get an oily hand print on her favorite coat. But looking down at her hand... It smells kinda good, actually. Waste not, want not? She sticks her tongue out as she moves her hand to her face so-

"Hey, c'mon," says Brad, placing his hand on her arm. "I get that you're a machine and all this human stuff doesn't apply, but... Have some dignity."

Frowning, she yanks her arm away. "Ugh, whatever. If it makes you feel better, then fine. Not like it'd actually fill my tank, anyhow."

An awkward silence follows, and Uzi places a hand on her bandaged leg. Finally, she sighs. "Well... Thanks for helping, or whatever. Before you ask, I can get home fine on my own."

Brad's expression is barely visible beneath his darkened brow, but he gives her a small nod. "Alright. Don't push yourself too hard."

He doesn't wave or say goodbye, he just turns to leave, and Uzi watches him go. With another sigh, she undoes the makeshift bandage before running her fingers down her leg. Just smooth metal; the injury's already fixed. She'll just keep that to herself, because Brad seems like he could use a win or two in his life.

Backstory for Fujiko perhaps? ^u^

Unsurprisingly, she’s one of the harder ones for me to write, but I’m giving it my all!

She’s born in Japan to a single mother. They live in a tiny apartment and, while her mother is young, she tries her best to do what she can for her. She’s made mistakes but she’s trying her best for her child. However, the stress gets to her. Her family has shunned her for having a child out of wedlock and for being so young. She leaves her child alone in a park one day. Fujiko is wailing after hours of loneliness and is finally picked up by police after a concerned couple realized the abandonment. Despite her age, the memory is something she recalls often and is where her first distrust of the police comes in. She felt they took her from her mother. She was coming back for her, she had to be.

Group homes were a change for Fujiko. She wanted her mom, but the kids are nice. The girls in the homes get in trouble for painting her nails. Why paint his nails?! He’s a boy! Fujiko was as pissed as a 4 year old could be at that point. She looked great in red nail polish! How dare they? However, this is where she learned that turning on the charm got her what she wanted. She was a cute kid and grew into a beautiful adult. She knew how to work the system before she was 7. Even if it was just for cookies or an extended bedtime, it worked. If that didn’t, she was good at tantrums too. She was an angry kid.

She ends up more rebellious in middle school. Group homes aren’t as nice when they realize how much you act out. She’s angry. She’s realized her mother abandoned her. Nobody concretely adopts her and it pisses her off. She’s shunted from home to home as she begins to steal jewelry and expensive things from foster parents. Sometimes they find everything, sometimes they don’t. She’s caught stealing her files trying to find her mother, which ears her a beating with a ruler for snooping in important files. It intensifies her rage against systems like this. There’s no information on her past except her permanent records of all of her misbehaving. Stealing, fighting, tantrums, she’s done it all.

Puberty doesn’t help. Hair in weird places makes her feel like she’s losing her good looks. She can’t get what she wants by just asking or trying her best. She’s learned this early on. Looks are what gets her what she needs. She’s alone and only has herself. She will kick someone’s ass, but that’s a last resort. She steals razors from the girls sanitary products room and teaches herself to shave. She steals makeup and perfume from stores and grows her hair long. Fuck societal norms at this point, she was whoever she wanted to be, damnit! She ends up getting arrested at 15 for stealing makeup. The group home cuts her hair as punishment. She gets more enraged against these systems. The group homes punish her for self expression. The police made fun of her hair and makeup. She pierces her own ears and fixes her hair to her best ability and runs away.

She adopts a new name. She’s Fujiko Mine now. Her hair grows back beautifully and she manages to learn to hide any masculine features well. Watching enough people teaches her how to raise her voice and she puts on an act to get money from rich suckers who treat anyone below them like garbage anyways. She ages into a woman on the streets, sleeping in fancy condos when she’s doing well and living with filthy men she tricks into letting her stay. She always leaves before they find her out, stealing their wallets and milking their bank accounts dry.

She’s in her 20s when she gets a high mark, gets herself a good amount of money but ends up losing it before she can do much. Down on her luck, a love struck Frenchman sweeps her off her feet and she makes him a mark.

It doesn’t work out like she expected.

He doesn’t leave. He found her out immediately. The stealing, her secrets, everything. He doesn’t care, despite the fact she holds a knife to his throat. He’s Lupin III and he’s… got really great boobs- oh. So that’s how he knew.

Lupin helps her pay her top and bottom surgery and handles all the recovery. He was really sweet for it. They form a bond pretty quickly. She heals and steals his wallet. He kept Monopoly money in it, the little creep. And a phone number. He invites her on heists, presents her with diamonds and dresses and designer bags. It’s what she always wanted. And while Lupin does want things in return, namely sex, he’s not greedy about it like the other men were. He isn’t forceful. If she says no he accepts just cuddling or even sharing a coffee and a chat.

Eventually they end up with a samurai and a gunman in the same situation. Jigen is prickly and thinks she’s just after Lupin’s body. The only thing she really wanted was to exchange chests, but that problem was solved and not much of Jigen’s business anyways. Goemon was shy and a little funny to mess with. He gave her hair tips and they became fast friends in exchanging passing tips. A lot of her anger dies down. She stills hates laws and systems like foster care but she’s not as angry at the world because people like her can do just fine when they get the right family. And she has her family, finally.

CONTRO IL GOVERNO DEGLI ASINI, DEGLI INCOMPETENTI, DEGLI INADEGUATI, DEI GAFFEUR DI PROFESSIONE...

L'appello degli Scienziati, del mondo Accademico, della Ricerca scientifica Italiana, degli uomini più illustri in campo sanitario, che avvertono l'urgenza di lanciare l'allarme contro lo smantellamento del Sistema Sanitario Nazionale Italiano.

Prima che sia troppo tardi e non restino soltanto i cocci da raccogliere di ciò che fu l'orgoglio della Nazione italiana dal 1978 agli anni 2000.

Poi vennero i guastatori, vennero gli speculatori lombardi, i leghisti, gli Egoisti, i Berlusconi, gli interessi dei Formigoni di turno, a demolire il sistema Pubblico, per accordare favori e privilegi agli amichetti degli amichetti.

Alle speculazioni delle Cliniche Private che fanno profitti sulla pelle di chi si ammala.

Poi non accusiamo nessuno che non lo sapevamo cosa stesse tramando questo sciagurato Governo di Destra-Destra, che ci porterà a sbattere e a disgregare la coesione nazionale mettendo tutti contro tutti, gli enti locali contro il Governo centrale, grazie alle norme sulla Autonomia differenziata e alla proposta di Premierato forte preteso dalla burina della Garbatella: la caciottara Giorgia Meloni.

Sappiamolo fin d'ora, cosa stanno preparandoci questi picconatori della Repubblica Italiana.

NOI CI BATTEREMO STRENUAMENTE PER DIFENDERE IL SISTEMA UNIVERSALE CHE GARANTISCE CURE A OGNI CITTADINO, SENZA DISTINZIONE DI REDDITO, CENSO, AMICIZIE DI PARTE O LEGAMI CORPORATIVI.

LE CURE SANITARIE VANNO PRESTATE A PRESCINDERE DAL PORTAFOGLIO CHE HAI IN TASCA. È UN DIRITTO SACRO QUESTO. È IL DIRITTO ALLA VITA, ALL'ESISTENZA IN VITA PER TALUNE PERSONE IN DIFFICOLTA' GIA ORA DA PERSONE SANE.

𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐓𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐁𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐆, he had plenty of noises that came along with him. tinkering with objects that would be used for murder was just another one of his hobbies. they had plenty of time to reside in the home they had made & he needed something to fill the time - cooking up creative ways to bring people to their demise. he was a master at the art of murder. VICKY knew better than to disturb him when he was deep in thought about his latest creation, it was a stroke of genius that she couldn't readily interrupt. he was a jokester - but he still had his moments of seriousness that couldn't be taken away from him, not even by @madnessdescend .

she was coddling her RATS again when he had returned; those creatures that he was not so fond of, yet he allowed to scurry about, for her sake. their hug came covered in blood, as it always did. there was nothing between them that was sanitary. they were covered in dirt & grime - the blood of the innocent, & their own innards at all times. no means of cleaning themselves up, this was simply the norm. they didn't need music to dance around - inside of their twisted heads, there was music enough. the both of them were broken beyond repair; the perfect duo for one another. it felt amazing to be with a partner. while he could manage himself on his own, being with another being was so much more satisfying. sharing the love of the kill with someone else . . . there was nothing that could compare.

twirling her around for a moment, he sets her back down on her feet. a gentle gesture, making sure that she was balanced on her own two legs before he lets go. VICKY is someone dear to him - even if she might be more sporadic about her actions than himself. he cannot blame his toy for being broken, it was his own doing.

I get the urge to be like "hey why can't we just love fat people, why does it have to be a fat fetish", I really get it. But like...

One, the ideas surrounding the kink/fetish aren't all the ones surrounding trying to break down the norms involving thin as the metric of beauty. Frequently, portions of fatness either unrealistic, normally unappealing, or otherwise just not really part of the 'loving people' discussions, are then focused on. It's not about the beauty of the curves of fatness, it's frequently also like. The emphasis of the weight on the subject's mobility. Or actively about making a subject fatter.

Two... Like. You guys know a lot of fat people are also into "fat fetish", right? Like the whole idea of leaning into the concept of fatness, of fattening, is something that at least in some ways is achievable. I'll see folks post about 'gaining' tips. About how to eat to better Get Fatter, and to do that safely. And those people are still worthy of love, because the way they sexualize their own experiences isn't some Othering of those who don't feel that way.

And even the ones who actively seek out fulfilling their desires in real life involving stuff like that will frequently also talk about stuff that isn't really realistic. Because it's also fun to think about things that aren't even possible, or may in some specifics be unbearably unpleasant or actually unsafe if you were able to replicate it in real life*, because fantasy is fun.

*the example in my head is the fantasy I see sometimes, of fattening via feeding tube. I'm certain the people who have spent a long time thinking about it know how to make it like. Safe and sanitary, and possibly even mildly pleasant tasting?, but I can't imagine it'd taste particularly good, and also that you'd likely get nauseous really easy, but that might just be me. Idunno!

Diatomite: Between Witches and Cats

You have a cat? Do you have litter? Then you probably have something interesting between your pet's paws. Today: Diatomite and its possible uses (long post).

First, disclaimer. There are many types of litter, made of different materials, today I will only talk about diatomite (those white porous stones).

I'm going to get into a topic that I touched lightly a while ago. The uses for feline sanitary stones (uses in witchcraft, because it has many uses in the everyday life, which can be googled in 3 seconds). It is not exactly a 100% safe material, but it is cheap and anyone who has a cat inside the house probably has a bag of it.

Let's start from the base. What is it? It is a siliceous sedimentary rock, formed by microfossils of diatoms, which are unicellular aquatic algae that secrete a siliceous skeleton called a frustule. That is, a stone formed by algae fossils. FOSSIL STONE. First interesting fact.

Diatomite then has 3 “parts”. It is a rock, a sediment that remains between layers of stone and earth. It is a fossil of a plant. From an aquatic plant. Therefore, its rock/fossil nature gives it the correspondence of Earth, while its aquatic plant past gives it the correspondence of Water.

From the “algae fossil” section, let us remember the characteristics of both.

Fossils: There is a lot of information about fossils out there in the ocean of the internet, so I'll keep this short and basic; In general it brings protection, security, stability, long life, good for grounding, great tools for ancestral work, etc.

Algae: The ocean itself is a source of endless wisdom, healing and magical powers, it is the “primordial soup of life on earth.” Algae, due to be so much out there, provide good luck and abundance, and are often considered a bridge between land and water. Due to their characteristic of living in the shadows of the sea, they are also imbued with dark and deep energies, which is not usually the norm among other plants (terrestrial plants, in general, are loaded with solar energy, while algae have less of this element). That is why it is said that algae are more linked to the moon than to the sun.

This characteristic of darkness, moon and depth makes them a great tool to summon entities (Mermaids and Merme, Gods and Goddesses of the Sea, Nymphs) and dark entities in general.

Being a plant that grows, is born and dies surrounded by salt water, its energy repellent capabilities are more than evident. Salt + water + moon = extreme banishing powers (drive away evil spirits, change bad luck, neutralize negative energies, neutralize curses).

Although not all algae have the same magical properties, they do share the aforementioned.

Diatoms (the algae that make up diatomite) are microscopic algae, basically Phytoplankton. These algae are responsible for half of the planet's oxygen.

With that we already have a wealth of useful characteristics for witchcraft, just considering its basic physical properties. But there is more.

Now let's remember some of the uses of diatomite: It is used as a filtration aid, mild abrasive, mechanical insecticide, absorbent for liquids, cat litter, thermal insulator, and a soil for potted plants.

Filter? This ability can be used when a spell is needed that lets the good through, but not the bad, to get rid of small annoyances.

Absorbent? Just as some recommend activated charcoal to make curses that fuck up the effects of medicines, this stone can do the same. And it can absorb both the good and the bad.

Thermal insulator? Perfect to add to “freezer spells”, since in addition to isolating it from any “warmth”, it filters it, leaving the person behind. Added to the banishing capabilities of the algae.

Safety Notice: Diatomite dust is bad for the lungs. The toxicity is low, one time will not hurt, but breathing it for a long time can cause harmful effects. Being abrasive and absorbent, it can dry out your hands, so it is suggested to use gloves. But likewise... Those harmful abilities can be perfect for ruining the health of someone who really deserves it.

But until now we have talked about the “clean” version. Let's remember what we said at the beginning, it's litter. Absorbs cat urine. If you have a cat and have the stomach for it, you can use the used stones.

What better element for a curse than cat urine? It is waste, toxic, with a pungent, repulsive smell, highly difficult to remove...

Extra important safety: Do NOT wash any cat urine with bleach, the chemical reaction is highly toxic. Water and detergent ALWAYS.

Diatomite can also absorb other things (less or more disgusting, it depends on you) and function as a “liquid soaked in rock”, you can add different liquids to enhance it according to your interests. Consecrated water, holy water, sun or moon water. Perfume, blood, herbal oil, tears (?), sweat, drinks, coffee, milk, tea, potions... A world of possibilities.

In addition, it can function as a miniature “spell jar” that does not attract attention. Liquid spell, imbue it in the stones and leave it where it is needed, its absorbent properties will make it very difficult for someone to smell it and the “just rock/trash” appearance makes it perfect for stealthy spells or for closed witches.

Anyway, next time you buy litter, maybe it's a good idea to save some for yourself!

Captive Revolution: Palestinian Women's Anti-Colonial Struggle within the Israeli Prison System

Having female detainees watch the torture of male detainees in order to frighten them and force them to collaborate was not unusual in the experience of many. Israeli prisons’ techniques of torturing Palestinian political prisoners included ‘Shabeh’ and ‘kees’ among others. The term mashbooh, or mashbooheen for the plural refers to detainees who are bound to either a chair or the wall, with their hands tied behind their backs or on top of their heads. The actual act is known as shabeh. The term kees, used by various interviewees refers to a black hood placed over the head and shoulders and often reeks of urine smell.

Here is what Haleema ‘A.’ relayed about her experience:

When I arrived one female security guard took me to a cell and demanded I take off all my clothes, including my underwear. She took my clothes with her and left me naked for a whole hour, hoping I would harm myself. After one hour they came back with my clothes; I put them on while one of the guards ordered me to carry a chair … I refused. He picked up the chair and walked towards a corner in the corridor which to me sounded like a slaughter house. From that corner,

I would hear the screams of men undergoing torture, while walking towards my cell I also saw two men mashbooheen, with the kees which reeked of urine smell covering their heads then they entered another corner, one of them put the chair on the floor and demanded I sit down. Then he cuffed my feet, tied them and hung them through a hook on the wall, and placed the kees on my head, it had an awful stench, and the smell of urine was suffocating. I could hardly breathe.

Haleema ‘A.’

This said, female Palestinian political detainees experience sexual abuse, molestation, threat of rape and even rape more frequently than do men. Playing on their own imagined stereotypes of Arab culture, especially the traditional norms concerning sexuality, Israeli military officers and prison authorities deliberately target Palestinian female political detainees and victimize them sexually. In my conversations with the former detainees, there was hardly any woman who was not sexually harassed or threatened with rape.

When Haleema ‘A.’ voiced her experience about one interrogation session, she described it as ‘the most excruciating form of torture.’ Here is what she said:

During one of the interrogation periods, I refused to answer their questions. One of the interrogators slammed my head against the wall several times and another one held my breasts tightly. I was resisting both interrogators. I never cried and stayed steadfast throughout … I was unable to find sanitary napkins nor did I have any extra underwear … I asked the interrogator for sanitary napkins. He said, ‘You talk, we will get you some.’ He [the interrogator] put one of his legs here [she stood up and demonstrated the scene for us]; he pushed one of his legs between my legs and wrapped his other leg around me … I knew they were exploiting Palestinian social or traditional norms. I wanted to give him the message that he will not scare me by this pressure he is putting on me. He looked at me and said: ‘You are smelly and filthy. Fuck off.’ He kicked me with his boots and said, ‘you disgust me … you sharameet [plural of sharmouta] always move from one man to the next in the PFLP.’

Haleema ‘A.’

Ghada’s experience of sexual assault was voiced thus:

I was beaten very frequently, on all parts of my body. There was a lot of psychological terror and threat of rape. They kept saying: ‘We will sleep with you now if you do not answer our questions ….’ I went through shabeh many times. One day, several interrogators entered my cell as I was defecating in my cell. They would take me to interrogation, then to the solitary confinement. I spent five weeks in solitary confinement. After two months of my detention, they moved me to a room with other women and I stayed there for 20 days; the room was very tiny. It had a bathroom and one tap that dripped all night. I was sleep deprived throughout my detention. I lost eight kilos during interrogation.

Ghada

his orders: ‘Take off your clothes.’ I placed my hands over my chest for protection. He did not give me any time, and asked the others in the room to undress me. I resisted but it did not help as I was lying on the floor naked, with my hands cuffed behind my back, I was thrown on the floor. The cuffs were pressing on my spine and it was painful. The short interrogator placed his both ankles on my belly. The tall one – Uzraeel – opened my legs using a wooden pole, and the woman held my head in place with her foot. The one who was holding me with both ankles started brushing my breasts with his huge hands, while Uzraeel started pushing a wooden pole into my vagina. They kept crushing my breasts, and trying to penetrate my vagina with a wooden pole, but could not do it … I resisted fiercely. Aisha

The use of sexuality, especially in the form of attempted rape, as a method of torture of Palestinian political prisoners was rather widespread in Israeli prisons. Qahira al-Saadi, who was released after ten years of imprisonment in Israeli jails in the January 2012 prisoners exchange with Hamas, said that she had been held for interrogation for three-and-a-half months at the Moscobiyya, then transferred to Ramla (Ayalon) prison. Referring to her incarceration, she said that Israeli guards mistreated and tortured her during the interrogation; the guards ‘threatened to rape me.

Targeting women’s body and sexuality was a policy used in Israeli prison interrogations of Palestinian female detainees. Women complained about the refusal of the interrogator or the prison guard to provide them with sanitary pads during menstruation. Detainees who were sentenced and placed in prison rooms would rip some of the rags used as bed sheets or covers and use these; others in solitary confinement, in isolation cells or during interrogation would be left bleeding all over their only pants.

Salwa expressed her feelings on this issue thus:

During interrogation I had my period; I asked for napkins, for cotton, anything, but they refused. I begged for toilet paper, and they refused. They kept saying: ‘You stay the way you are because you are smelly and filthy and we want you to die, and then we will say you committed suicide …’ My blood filled my underpants and pants, and during these days, I was in a lot of pain.

La Turchia è ufficialmente sotto sfratto

Queste non sono foto che riguardano il terremoto del 6 febbraio del 2023. Sono foto di Istanbul ed in qualche modo sono collegate al sisma dove persero la vita circa 60mila persone.

Decenni di urbanizzazione disordinata accompagnata da una edilizia mediocre hanno prodotto città vulnerabili.

Facciamo una premessa: Dopo il Terremoto di Van del 2012 nasce la legge 6306 per facilitare la trasformazione delle aree urbane a rischio sismico (si stima circa il 66% della Turchia).

Questa legge alla fine ha spalancato le porte alla speculazione. Lo abbiamo visto nel Terremoto di Gaziantep del 2023 dove case di recente costruzione sono collassate.

Dopo il terremoto di Gaziantep venne approvato un maxi emendamento alla legge 6306. Anche questo emendamento alla fine sta producendo una campagna nazionale di espropri e di ricostruzione perché vengono date priorità ad aree ad alto potenziale speculativo rispetto a quelle ad elevato rischio sismico.

Come funziona? basta l'assenso del 50%+1 dei proprietari (prima erano chiesti i 2/3) con minaccia di esproprio per chi non approva. Sono dimezzati i tempi per i ricorsi, gli abitanti hanno 90 giorni per lasciare la casa con immediata chiusura delle utenze e lo sfratto forzato. Oltre alle spese di demolizione ai proprietari viene addebitato l’aumento di valore dell’immobile. Chi non può farlo é costretto ad un nuovo indebitamento con lo Stato, o a farsi versare il valore stimato dell’abitazione pre-trasformazione o si vedrà trasferire la proprietà altrove, per esempio in un comprensorio di edilizia pubblica.

Gli affittuari non sono presi in considerazione.

Questo ovviamente riguarda tutta la Turchia. E sono in atto molte proteste. E' vero che c'é bisogno di una velocizzazione del rinnovamento edilizio ma se non é seguito da un riassetto urbano ragionato in chiave antisismica rimane del tutto inutile. Infine questo tipo di ricostruzione rende la sicurezza più che un diritto un asset economico. In pratica in Turchia la sicurezza vale solo per chi riesce a permettersela.

Tralascio il discorso sulla rimozione dei milioni di tonnellate di detriti. Meritano un discorso a parte. Basti pensare che in moltissimi casi vengono rimossi in fretta e senza seguire le normative sanitarie e ambientali. Con le proteste delle comunità insieme ad ingegneri ed ambientalisti.
