hello, you can resquest scenery, TFO Orion Pax, D-16, B-127 and Sentinel wait for their Conjux femme reader to give birth to their Sparkling. (about the others except Sentinel, where they go to the surface and return to Iacon and it would be that they meet their newborn Sparkling)
TFO Chars/Pregnant!Femme!Reader [hcs]
featuring: Orion Pax, D-16, B-127, Sentinel Prime tw: pregnancy, very brief mentions of violence, slighty yandere!Megs by the end, mixture of fluff/angst. word count: ~1940 a/n: I hope I understood your request well. Feel free to correct me if I did something wrong so I can remake it.
Orion Pax.
I feel like Orion (cogless, since it's before they went to the surface) is probably that typical young dad that has no idea how to take care of a child and might as well set on fire the kitchen in attempts to warm the bottle of energon for the sparkling.
But! He is very enthusiastic about it, and he supports you in every way he can; it's just that he lacks any real experience with it. Reading in the archives about sparklings, pregnancy and how to be a good mentor is easy; the hardest thing is to actually deal with it.
There is a big possibility that you are also cogless like him, and I'm not sure Sentinel actually cares about poor pregnant miners to give them at least a one-day off. Your supervisors would constantly remind you to continue working, since there's always a big need for energon.
Orion often picks up fights because of it. Can't those big bullies see that you're sparked? You need rest and good care, not lifting heavy equipment...As usual, he gets scolded by Elita for not doing his job properly, but he makes sure that he helps you with everything. You can rest during your shift, while Orion is happily working for both of you, so you won't be reported to the higher-ups. It's a little hard, but there is nothing he wouldn't do for you.
Following my last statement and the previous headcanons, Orion desperately wants the best future for all Cybertronians. He hates the thought that his sparkling will grow up in the same place as him. No actual home, no equality, only hatred from the others. That's when he sees the opportunity to change the future, he grasps onto it.
It pains Orion to leave you in Iacon. It wasn't really his fault, though. He would have come back to you after the Iacon 5000 race immediately if it wasn't for Darkwing throwing him on sublevel 50, and the next events after that...
Orion gains the maturity he lacked, and with realization of his other past mistakes, he also understands how careless he was before. You're probably scared to death without him; he left you without a word, and now you have to only guess where your conjunx is. How stressed you will be after someone tells you that he's dead.
Just as much as it scares him and makes him angry at himself, it also motivates him for more. No matter what, he will come back to you.
The moment he sees you, he is relieved. The reunion looks awkward, his form towering over your smaller one, but that doesn't bother either of you. When he finally meets the sparkling, his own little spark, all the pain from the last battle is gone.
Orion swears to you that he will never leave you alone after today; with a new spark born in this world, there is a hope. How meaningful it is for his own child to be born the day the Iacon becomes free.
D-16
Just like Orion, D-16 has a little to no idea how to take care of the sparkling. If his best friend will be so happy to be a sire, D-16 has mixed emotions about this.
Don't get me wrong, he is excited about it just like you, but D-16 is the bot who is reluctant when it comes to going against the rules. He is not sure if this is actually the right place and time for the sparkling to be born now. Both of you are cogless, and there is no great future for you. Maybe after countless cycles ago he can get a higher position, a bit better life, but will it be enough to raise someone so young?
Even then, he shows you that he is happy. He doesn't want you to think that he hates the idea just because he's not so sure about your current life.
D-16 is a naturally strong bot, probably one of the strongest when compared to other miners. He gets extra affectionate with his conjunx, holding you close and maybe even carrying you around if you show him the tiniest sign that you're tired. He is really sweet.
As Orion drags him into the race, he begins to slowly lose his cool. His outburst in the cave after finding out about the truth is even stronger. The betrayal, pain, the sick feeling of worry about you and his sparkling. If only Orion didn't drag him into that damn race, he would have been with you, making sure that you're safe, none of that would have happened.
The frustration boils over with each step he makes. He needs to come back to Iacon, to you, but first, he has to get rid of the one who caused the cycles of pain and humiliation.
The time D-16 gets his servos on Sentinel, ripping him apart in front of anyone, he thinks it is the only way to solve everything. Only he can fix it, and only he can trust himself with protecting you.
You weren't there to see him deal with Sentinel, thankfully. It is for the best to avoid all the stress it could have caused if you saw him. Your dear conjunx is seething with hatred. Sentinel took many things from him; he wasn't even able to be there with you when your sparkling was born. D-16 Megatron will cherish both of you forever, and he will make sure to raise his little one as strong as him, so they won't live through the same events as D-16 was.
B-127
Oh, this one is a little too sad to speculate. Let's say, both of you are cogless but met each other a long time ago before you two ended up on sublevel 50. The moment you two failed to please the higher-ups and also the moment you find out that you're sparked up. What bad timing!
B-127 seems to be more happy than you are when he realizes that he is going to be a sire. A little too happy. Even though he doesn't fully understand it. You might go like, “You're going to be a sire, Bee” and then he hits you with, “I am sparked up??” which is kind of funny. Is that really your man?
Out of other bots, I can see 🐝 being the best sire ever. Of course, he gets a little confused, but who wouldn't be if they dealt with their first child? You try to explain to him everything you know about the topic, and he quickly catches up on it.
B-127 is already thinking about the names. Does Badasstron Junior sound like a good name for sparkling? Or maybe he should practice combining your names together? Anyway, it really helps him not to get insane down here. Having you around is good for Bee's mental health, though you're not so sure how much time passed since you were demoted.
Even then, Bee shows his caring side. He does get serious when the situation really needs it, so he is constantly tied to your hip because he wants you and the sparkling to be safe. The conditions are not great, but he makes the best of it. No matter how bad it gets, he always makes you smile, even though sometimes he has no strength to keep his cheerfulness.
Bee is happy to have more new friends and to partake in the journey of finding the matrix of leadership, but he doesn't want you to get hurt. That's why (with tears in his optics) you two agree that you should stay. But hey, it will probably not take too much time. He will come back with his new friends to Iacon with the matrix; the energon will flow again, so there's no need for you to stay!
Bee doesn't stop yapping about the fact that he is going to be a sire to Elita. This fella just likes to talk and when he sees the opportunity, he doesn't miss it! Poor Elita has to listen to him how hard it is to choose the name for the baby, or how he is going to be the best sire ever once the group comes back. Ohh, did you know that he also really-really loves you? And his sparkling? Elita barely handles him, but even though she never met you, she knows everything about you.
After Bee comes back to Iacon, he almost faints. First he got a cog, then met the high guard, got a job with the government, AND became a sire? When he sees his sparkling, he feels a little sad that he wasn't there with you, but he will compensate it in no time. Every little move your sparkling makes is cheered by, and Primus have mercy on the poor bots around him. He is probably that dad who will show you the pictures of his kids...
Sentinel Prime
Being a conjunx of Sentinel has its own perks. Lucky you, no work for you! It will be too bad if you get sparked up and cogless, huh?
Sentinel is a busy bot. There is always work waiting for him, especially the oh so important ‘‘searching for matrix of leadership’ thing. Even then, when he is in Iacon, there are lots of paper jobs and meetings being here and there since everything should be personally controlled by him.
One of the cons while being sparked up and being conjunx of Sentinel is that he doesn't have much time for you. By the end of the day, he always comes back to your quarters, but it's just so lonely without him! You're always surrounded by the guards, the medics, but they can never replace the presence of your loved one.
All the changes in your body don't help at all, the mood swings, the certain energon cravings in the middle of the night, so-so hard to deal with, but he's a Prime, after all, so that shouldn't trouble him that much...
Sentinel might be a little irritated with it. When you wake him up, just to ask for something Primus-knows-what-next, that will probably take hours to search for, but he has no strength to deny you. If his conjunx wants it, he gets it!
I like to think that Sentinel is probably always aware of your and sparkling's health, but in a slightly concerning way. Yes, he can miss one or two meetings at the doctor's with you, but that doesn't mean he is ignorant. Everything is reported straight to him, so if anything, he will drop his work and join you. There is also a looong track of every checkup you had, and he has a timer that counts seconds to when the sparkling is born.
Imagine how annoyed Sentinel is when he gets humiliated by the quintessons and misses the birth of his sparkling? He practically scowls when someone reports him about it and totally has to restrain himself from strangling someone on his way to Iacon, but he manages it somehow.
Sentinel's mood quickly replaced with warmth for you and the sparkling, even though inside his head, he is still annoyed. How could he miss it? When he planned everything to the last second? The one thing that keeps his mind occupied is the little one he has in his servos. He's not going to leave you two again. At least, when he still can.

Writing Year in Review - 2024
Goodbye 2024, hello 2025. It's sort of hurting my brain to think that we're a quarter of the way through the 21st century now, so... Let's not dwell on that.
We did some travel this year. In April we flew to my hometown to watch the total solar eclipse, since my parents' house was directly in the path of totality. The weather cooperated (clear skies? in Ohio? in April?), so we got a great view. That was such a mind-blowing experience, one that I would completely recommend for anyone who has a chance to see a total eclipse. (I'd seen partial eclipses before, but this was the first total eclipse I'd experienced.)
Then in early December we flew to British Columbia to visit Spouse's family, which was nice. It was so much warmer there than here. Maybe we need to visit there in the winter more often. 😄
Things have been changing at work, resulting in some difficult stress that I've been trying to manage. I'm pretty good at setting down work stuff at the end of the day and not continuing to work on stuff after quitting time (unlike some of my peers) but I do take the stress home with me. I haven't quite figured out how to deal with that, and I need to.
And finally, I hit a major milestone birthday, one that officially places me in the "Old" category. I'm fine with it, but there are some health issues that continue to dog me. I wonder how much of those issues were exacerbated by my Covid infection in 2023, so we've been continuing to be cautious.
Like last year, my focus is going to be on being kind to myself: taking care of the meat machine that I'm piloting, and not stressing myself with anything I don't need to. That includes my writing.
In December, I wrote 6,431 words, almost evenly split between my Christmas story All I Want for Christmas, and The Prime and His Protector. I'm so close to being done with Prime and Protector that I can practically taste it. I think it'll be good having that off my plate.
In 2024, I wrote a total of 78,703 words, more than I did in 2023. Most of it was for The Prime and His Protector, with A Matter of Propriety a close second. (Even though I started posting Matter of Propriety in 2023, I finished writing it in 2024. My word count posted to AO3 was 117, 134 words, for the same reason.)
I started logging official word count goals each month, and I made my goal most months! Granted, I was very conservative in my goal-setting, but that's ok. (See above, being kind to myself.)
For my word count per week, you can see it's all over the place. There are a few peaks, but I can't tell you what those may have been related to. (The big trough in July was probably due to how hot it was; my brain doesn't work when it's hot out.)
Comparing my average words per hour by month to previous years' graphs, when I do sit down to write, my output is pretty consistent, between 500-750 wph.
As for goals, for 2024 I set some very doable goals, and I didn't do horrible!
Write two comic scripts for practice I wrote one, so 50%!
Finish reposting taken-down fics I finished one compilation but have a handful left from the other one. Call this 80% done.
Write and post three one-shots Yes! Done! (I actually wrote SEVEN!)
Start posting Prime and Protector Yes! Done!
In that same light (keeping a doable list of goals), here are my goals for 2025:
Finish reposting taken-down fics
Finish writing and posting Prime and Protector
Write and post three one-shots
Start posting one of my longfic WIPs
My rationale for these is: I am SO close to being done with both Prime and Protector, and reposting the taken-down fics, that those should both be gimmies (I hope). I do like cranking out one-shots as a way to get things out of my brain (like I did this year with the Dune/TF crossover thing I'd been mulling for years). And I want to get moving on at least one of those pending longfics. I have a few sitting around that are several years old that I'd like to get out of my WIP folder. We'll see how I do next January. ✨
Behind the cut is the first sentence of each of the stories I posted (sans the reposted fics, since those were all backdated to their original posting dates), and the month it was posted in. I also tossed in my AO3 Wrapped.
I wish everyone a happy and safe 2025!
January. A Matter of Propriety (from chapter 5, which was the first chapter posted in 2024). Orion had heard of people having processor lockups when they didn't get enough recharge to process all the information in their memory, or if they were experiencing some sort of glitch.
March. The Spark and the Lightning. The Autobots drove in silence until the talus dunes grew too loose for them to navigate, and their tires could find no traction in the castoffs of the topsiders.
April. Another Day in Paradise. "Is everybody excited for another day in paradise?"
April. Diplomatic Relations. It was always the same.
June. A Different Me (comic script, so this is the first line of dialogue). "Prowl was right. Everything is just like I left it."
July. Sightlines. Five hours into his first mission with Corporal Bluestreak of Praxus, Hound figured out what the other mechs in his new unit had meant when they wished him luck.
August. The Prime and His Protector (first chapter was posted in August). "Keep moving!" Jazz called out over comms as he drove to the top of the ridge.
October. Feral Code. For as much as Tagan Heights had once been a center of industrial might and scientific excellence, the wilderness just outside the city's limits was as wild as it came.
November. To Service a Prime. "Per Sentinel Prime's orders, the entire service depot is at your disposal," the attendant said, walking the diminutive miners through the rooms.
November. Translation Error. "I can't believe Raf got detention," Miko said.
November. Don't Move. "Don't move," Nautica murmured, stepping back to admire her work.
December. All I Want for Christmas. Hound swirled the liquid around in his glass and hoped it wasn't too obvious that he was staring.
And here is my AO3 wrapped! (Here is the source for the graphic!)

The other woman
Johnny joestar x reader x gyro zeppeli
Out of all of your time in this race. You never thought you’d be pinned under one or your partners. That partner being , Gyro Zeppeli.
It was late at night, you were freezing, so.. you moved tents during the night. You didn’t care what tent you went in, as long as it was someone warm, and well, you hate to say it but.. gyro was the only one with enough muscle on him to sustain warmth for both of you. Johnny only had a strong upper body so it was basically 50/50 with him. That really seemed like a hassle you weren’t willing to deal with.
You crawled into the tent and cuddle under the blanket of the warm man.
He opened his eyes a little and made a groan, not to happy about being awakened.
“(Y/N)?”
You inhaled, you knew gyro wouldn’t hurt his team mate but.. he was still powerful.
“I’m sorry Gyro.. I’m just really cold..” you muttered
“So you came to cuddle me? What kind of sick prank is this” he rolled around to face you
“It’s not a prank.” You rolled your eyes
“Oh. So now you’re giving attitude to the one YOU came to in your time of need. I see.”
“Look if you want me to leave I’ll gladly go with Jo-“ before you could finish your sentence he had you pinned under his strong arms
“Wh- what’s going on” you smirked and chuckled out
“(Y/N), you disrespected me. I think you know how I am about that...” His stern tone filled your stomach with butterflies
“Yes I know..” you turned your face away from him, still under his grasp.
“Then why would you do it?”
“I- i didn’t mean it in a disrespectful way.” You looked back at him
He hummed and pressed his lips against yours, moaning into the kiss and moving your hips against his. He moved away from the kiss
“Now. Go to bed already. We have a big day.”
You nodded and laid your head on his chest
The next morning you, Gyro and Johnny made your way to the next stage. Gyro came in 1st, Johnny in 2nd and you followed in 3rd.. barley beating Diego Brando.
The women were eating this up. This was the only time Gyro had gotten first..well not counting when he got disqualified at the beginning.. but that’s besides the point. The girls surrounded him as he dismounted his horse and held her reins in his hand. He tipped his hat at the compliments and praise he earned for the women, acting as if he didn’t know what they wanted. Blowing a kiss and signing papers for the fan girls to ease them off. He had to force his way through their grasp and make his way with Valkyrie to you and Johnny.
Your face red and your heart broken.. did last night mean nothing to him?!
“(Y/N)!” He waved at you as he made his way to you “what’s with the long face?” He gripped your cheeks and shook your head gently
You slapped his hand away and walked away to get water and food for your horse, Johnny followed
“What’s wrong?” Johnny poked at the obvious elephant in the room
“Why do you want to know.” You mumbled and turned away
“Because.. I hate seeing such a nice and lovely person like you be upset.” He was obviously trying to get something but at this point you’d take any for or attention to get back at gyro
“Gyro and I kissed. He had me pinned down and he made out with me. He made me feel loved, then he wants to show off for all of them girls..”
“Did you tell him that?”
“Obviously not Johnny.” You snapped at him
“Sorry.” It was silent “well maybe you could share a tent with me tonight and we can talk about it, I can give you some advice! Yaknow I used to be sorta a playboy back in my prime.” He chuckled
An idea popped into your head. You could use Johnny to get back at Gyro
“I’d like that” you smiled and helped him with getting his horse water
That night you two shared a tent since it was still freezing, I mean it was winter after all!
“So, (Y/N)”
“Yea?” You answered
“What’s the real reason you got jealous”
“Well.. if I’m being honest, Johnny..” you cut your self off by putting your hand on his thigh “I was only trying to get your attention.. this whole time I’ve wanted you.. but feared I would have bitten off more than I could chew” you continued to stroke his ego, his cock coming to life
“M- wait a minute, you want me…?” His face became beet red
You nodded “I’ve wanted you since I seen you fight in the 3rd stage~”
Your hand trailed up his thigh and onto his member
His cock was fully hard now.
��B-but what about Gyro. Wont he be back soon..?” You knew Johnny was right… but you didn’t care, Gyro deserved to be hurt how you were.
“It’ll be quick..” you took his cock out and slid it into your mouth
After a few minutes, Gyro came back early. There was no more fire wood where you three were.
“(Y/N).. you- your mouth feels so good..” Johnny huffed out
Gyro heard this and slung the tent entrance open and yanked you up
“You whore! What is going on here!?” He yelled at you and Johnny
“Gyro! It’s not what it looks like! I was just helping (Y/N)!”
“Yea you were helping alright” he slapped you across the face
“Did last night mean nothing you filthy slut!? You just like being passed around, huh..” you stayed quiet. Another slap came across your face “Answer me whore!”
“Yes.. I guess you could say that” you mumbled nonchalantly. Gyros face went from angry to enraged. Johnny still sitting there with his cock out.. which was kind of awkward since Gyro carried you out of the tent by your shirt and threw you onto the ground.
“Since you want to be a little slut, I guess I’ll treat you like one.” Gyro yanked your pants off and took his cock out. Your home already more willing to welcome him in. “Johnny. Get your ass out here” Johnny made his way over to you two
“Oh my god! Gyro that thing is massive! Put it away!” Johnny shut his eyes closed
“Oh shut up. Get to using (Y/N)’s mouth since you didn’t get to finish early”
Your heart was racing. Your plan hadn’t really gone as planned but hey it was better this way I guess
Johnny stuffed his hardening cock back into your mouth and Gyro began pushing his cock into your hole, your eyes widened as he snapped hips into you without giving you a single second to adjust to his size
Gyro took notice to this
“Oh what? A slut can’t keep their word? Disgusting. Isn’t that right Johnny?”
“M-ah- ye- yea you’re a dirty dirty whore, (Y/N)” he punctuated your name with a hard thrust
Gyro looked at johnnys face and then yours
“Such a talented tongue. How many lies did you tell to get that” he chuckled. Thrusting into you as he held on your hips
You were shaking, the over stimulation was too much, Johnny began to pinch and twist your nipples, you moaned around his cock… the vibrations making him whine
Gyro was pounding into you while calling you nasty names and moaning about how you planned this, and we’ll it wasn’t far from the truth..
“I bet you did this to prove something, huh?! What was it (Y/N)~”
You clenched your eyes, Johnny was still abusing your throat.
“Had to of been those girls you were flirting with..” Johnny stammered out
“At the stage?” Gyro bit is lip and Johnny nodded
“What a needy bitch..” he mumbled
Johnny fucked your throat and came down your throat then pulled out and kissed you
“How filthy (Y/N)” Johnny kissed the shell of your ear
“You want me to fill you?” You nodded and put your hands over your face to hide your lewd expressions
Johnny got note of that and took your hands and held them down..
“I’m going to fill you, just how you wanted.. you better thank me tesoro..” he continued to thrust into you and fuck you hard, like you were nothing but a toy
“Ah thank you G-Gyro! I love it! I love you”
You pulled away from Johnny and reached down and started playing with yourself
“Naughty naughty” Gyro swatted your hand away. You whined, but then he starts playing with you by himself “now, give your hands back to Johnny. Be an obedient bitch.. if you know what good for you!” He thrusted into you as Johnny took your hands and kissed them praising you
“You’re doing good, (Y/N).. taking him like that”
You moaned as you reached your orgasm, Gyro continued to thrust into you until he came.. then the two men admired your dipping cum filled hole.
You were a whimpering, moaning, incoherent mess. It was adorable
“Now.” Gyro threw you something to clean up with “don’t disrespect me again.” He wiped his face off “nyohoho”

Buy me a Kofi! ☕️
Definitely not required but they do help:)

https://www.tumblr.com/mistressemmedi/740063884004802560/anyways-the-funny-thing-about-the-dakar-is-that?source=share
Can you explain the full story, please?
Absolutely but we need to start from the beginning. Back in the 70s this French madlad, Thierry Sabine, got lost in the Sahara while competing in another rally raid. He made it back to civilization and thought to himself "This was a great experience, we should make it a regular thing! Rally raids in the desert!" so, in 1977, Thierry organized a large scale rally that would cross the whole Sahara - starting point would be Paris and the end would be the capital of Senegal, Dakar.
I guess Thierry was not the only madlad around because 180+ other drivers/riders etc decided to join in on the fun. Popularity rose the following few years thanks to big name entries such as Jacky Ickx. The rally was very much an adventure: you got a general map indicating stops you should make on your way to Senegal and... That was kind of it. No teams, no real backup. People showed up in modified everyday cars, someone even raced in a modified Rolls Royce lmao
So by 1982. the rally was kinda known but it wasn't the scale it was today. Enter our main character: Mark Thatcher, absolute weapon of a man (honestly, look him up... Man does not sound like he's the sharpest tool in the shed lmao) and unfortunate son of one Margaret Thatcher (prime minister of England at the time). He decides to enter the rally with his lil Peugeot 504 with no real prior experience besides racing Le Mans twice (which... uh, very different from a rally in the desert). So he starts off with his co-driver and mechanic in tow and gets lost in the desert. It happens, right? People usually turn up after a day or so. Well, after 3 days he's officially declared missing and mommy dearest is informed. Obviously the son of the Prime Minister being lost somewhere in the Sahara is quite a big deal, so the news was all over that, and Old Maggie decided to flex some of that British muscle - a rescue is launched, involving three separate countries who sent out military aircrafts to search for this moron in the desert, as well as Algeria dispatching its soldiers to find the guy.
After a few days, Mark is found about only 50 kms away from the main route of the race 💀 which caused quite a bit of embarrassment on an international scale to his mom.
Anyways, bad publicity is still publicity after all, and by the year after there were 450+ entries to the rally which included big name manufacturers such as Porsche etc. and it evolved in the crazy 2 week rally that we know today!
Bonus - Quotes from Mark Thatcher about the whole ordeal:
Before competing he said:
"I've now raced in Le Mans and other things – this rally is no problem."
In 2004, Thatcher wrote about his experience:
"I did absolutely no preparation. Nothing."
"We must have hit something. ... We stopped. The others stopped too, took a note of where we were and went on. But the silly bastards – instead of telling everyone we were 25 miles east when they finished the section, they told them we were 25 miles west."
"So The Boss (the prime minister) does entirely the right thing, picks up the phone to the ambassador in Algiers and says, "Can you find out what is going on?" The ambassador then rings the prefect of the region who says there are four people missing and that I am one of them."

Amazon Affiliate Listicle, but with my ADHD and propensity for swearing
So I'mma do a listicle of Amazon affiliate links just like every other place is doing for Prime Days.
I'm just gonna tell you ahead of time that I'm doing it for money and the sense of incredulity I feel about... Amazon as a whole.
🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
A Backbone, probably the most ridiculous gaming accessory I've ever seen. Yes, I'd like to use my phone as a controller for $35 more than a normal PS5 controller costs and have almost no other functionality!
I am ALL ABOUT BIDET ATTACHMENTS, okay, but this brand is so fucking overpriced. I'm not paying $77 to launch high-powdered water up my chocolate starfish, and I'm definitely not paying the normal $110. I WILL say that I've used this brand and it was good, but... Dudes. It's a stream of water to make wiping your ass easier. How much is that actually worth? This is a much better price for the exact same functions.
When I saw this set of movies, I didn't see that it was James Bond. Daniel Craig is wearing like a sweater, but I also didn't realize it was Daniel Craig. All I saw was CRAIG. This is, for some reason, absolutely fucking hilarious to me.
Instant Pot for $65, need I say more?
Okay I'm not even joking, this is just a pretty fucking decent price ($84) for a 1.5 TB microSD card.
If you have a 3D resin printer, today is the day to stock up: AnyCubic has some really good resin deals going on! I personally love the plant-based resin, but I've heard amazing things about their water-washable stuff. I wanna try the ultra-tough resin, though. (Note: this is UV resin so you don't have to actually use it in a 3D printer. You can use it in a mold too.)
Let's spend $50 to make a single cup of coffee at a time when I can make better coffee using a disposable tea bag. 🙄 The hatred I have for single-use coffee makers knows no bounds.
What you do is take about two regular spoons full of coffee grounds (another half a spoon if you like it harsh, half a spoon less if you like it light), put them in the tea bag. Put any other spices and flavorings you like in the bag too. Close it, and tie it closed really well (I wrap the strings around the top of the bag and tie them again when I've tied it.) steep for 5 minutes in a mug full of hot water (doesn't matter how it got hot), and then add milk or creamer depending on your preference. It will have less of an acidic bite and a better flavor profile.
I'm super into the idea of bleaching my tooth enamel until it rots away and my teeth are super white but extremely sensitive! Give it to me, Crest! Yeah Daddy!
If you DO want the tooth-brightening shit, you'll probably want to invest in a few tubes of Sensodyne. Trust me.
Oh, you eat Tide pods? Cool, cool, if you Wan a be like 2021 about it. I'm a dishwasher pod kid. Snack time.
OK no sarcasm, this shit will clean your washing machine so fuckin good. My daughter gave me some and suddenly none of us smell like Satan's asshole anymore. Fucking amazing.
Okay look, if you wanna get special pimple patches, go ahead, they're on sale today and they DO work, but they're just hydrocolloidal bandages. I get the regular ones bc I can cut them to shape.
Okay fullstop, I love the power mops Swiffer makes and this is a GREAT deal. Anyone wanna buy me a new mop? 😂
Oh shit, they have Naked mini-palettes for 40% off. That's $21 omg why am I a poor with expensive makeup taste??? WHY? (They also have the Stila liquid eyeliner on sale somewhere.)
Yes, sir? I'd like the biggest, widest computer monitor to ever exist. I'm a gamer, you see. A thousand dollars today, you say? What a deal! I'm a gamer! (Look, I have a gaming computer and a pretty big monitor but there's a fkn limit, Samsung. There's a line and you've crossed it.)
I almost didn't click on the "pet products" tab because I miss Ziva SO MUCH. But I do love pampering my pets. In that vein, WHO WANTS TO BUY A SHOCK COLLAR?
If you've ever needed 900 poop-scooping mini garbage bags... Today is your day. Time to shine.
Aw fuck, I found a pretty damn good deal on a cat tree.
If you don't have a 3D printer, you have to buy Settlers of Catan like a peon and it's on sale today.
I'm actually disappointed in myself how much I want this.
TICKET TO RIDE FOR UNDER $40.
If you wanna train your pet to talk these things are on sale.
For the low, low price of $98, you too can let your child kill themselves by improperly using a Zipline kit.
EXPLODING KITTENS FOR $10 AND I MEAN THE GAME NOT ACTUAL KITTENS BUT I GUESS HE HAS A SHOW NAMED THAT TOO?
As a general rule Raven and I don't buy Nerf products because they're owned by Hasbro and we're boycotting them because of the whole Pinkertons thing. Plus, in the world of foam dart guns they're actually doing the worst when it comes to innovation and performance. But! We will get them on clearance or secondhand. I consider Prime Day to be clearance, so have this multipack for a kid's party that I wish I'd had for Raven's birthday party last month.
Also, this translucent blaster.
I love this style of shorts (although I got the viral tiktok ones) but omg this one has POCKETS.
Today I discovered that there is a brand called THE GYM PEOPLE and they make really boring clothes.
Hey plus-sized ladies! Want yet another ugly beige bra? Look no further!
I have one of these mandolin slicers. Highly recommend.
Get your kids used to corporate surveillance with an Amazon Echo made just for them!
THESE ARE THE ONLY PENS I USE.
Amazon putting these under "off to college" is absolutely fucking hilarious to me.
I'm actually really bummed I don't have the money to get this Samsung Galaxy Tab.
Amazon knows what's up when it comes to kids: a five-pack of identical pants. I think it's for uniforms but like. Let's be real, kids just go through clothes like that.
Every time I see a Skullcandy product, I remember when I was at a Skullcandy booth at the Warped Tour and I asked the booth babe how they compared to Sennheiser or even Audio-Technica. She looked at me, and in a snooty voice, said, "I've never even heard of Sennheiser before."

Stardust
I had a relative who this past weekend went to a concert. The star(s) of the concert were a very famous country duo. So what is the big deal with this? Well the combined age of the pair is 140 years old. I would classify them as part of the 'geezer pleaser' (copywrite, TM and all that stuff) group of performers currently performing all over the world. We see them, we know them, and if they were not together as a group for a long time they have reunited for, and I will say this plainly MORE MONEY! The life of musicians from the 70's and 80's (maybe even the 50's and 60's if they get a day pass from the home) was probably expensive so they burned through their cash and now need more.
Why are we, as a society, so eager to pay big prices to see people well past their prime perform? Sometimes it is nostalgia but there are a lot of newer fans who never heard them before willing to go see them because they are tired of the current crop of limited talented people singing the one or two songs they know. I blame tick tock for this as many are not special or even musicians but they got a lot of hits for one video. Is this an indictment of music today? I will let you be the judge on that.
Because of this new method of concert going, there are also new rules that need to be observed. Not only are the musicians much older so are the majority of fans attending. To that end, I am offering up a list of protocols that need to be put in place.
Stay away from the rows right in front of the stage. This used to be prime territory and everyone rushed to be there. Now there is an 87% chance one of the band members will fall off the stage and land on you. One of you will break a hip as a result.
Women used to throw their panties up on stage for the band. Now, please be practical and toss Depends. Preferably unused ones. (This is another reason to avoid the front of the stage as old women can't throw very far)
Unless you have a sticker be prepared to park very far from the venue. When there is a geezer concert they reserve approximately 2,385 parking spots for handicapped people.
Concessions should now carry Imodium. Many in attendance might not be able to hold it for the entire concert and the time it takes to get to the washroom and back will cause you to miss a lot of songs. Another reason not to throw Depends onto the stage as you might need them shortly.
Watch the big screen behind the band as it will be showing film from their early concerts. Much more entertaining than watching them using inhalers or the drummer losing the use of one arm and trying to play with one. (Not a problem if it is Def Leppard. I know this is not too soon for that one.)
The venue must have wide aisles as all of the ushers and most of the patrons will be using walkers.
There should be three intermissions that can be used for valuable nap time for everyone involved.
If they are going to put the words to the songs on the screen for audience sing along it must be in the largest font available.
This one should be law. It must be stated up front how many original members will be performing. Not the 5th drummer or the grandson of one of the original singers. Ticket prices should be a sliding scale based on the % of original members up on stage. There are a couple of touring bands that have 0 members. These should be free.
THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: Everything has a best before date. Know yours and act accordingly.

Crabs have crossed before at the new canal very deep holes came into the Gulf. About 1)5 and grew in many ways mostly huge. The storm there fills the holes over and over capillary action to caverns. We see several steam. Mostly wouldn't now tmy f says if I roast it it will open the canal create movement. The storm sits. Moves 2.5mph east. But he says I primed it. Then if sizzling are empty. So thought it over. Sits there spinning. Salty water here cleans it good the South and typical. Several caverns steam 1-20 mile 2-10 mile 3-30 mile 4-70 mile and 8-15 mile mostly in a row. All of them. They fight near it no. It's creating the water the wind by Tommy f who started the erosion. Wants forgieners in. That's Tommy f. Trump plans on blowing up cities he lost yup. We want them out he will take credit for it.
We estimate the caverns will create tunnels to shore in just hours. Some excavated by Jason for ur are full of salt water sizzle and will be there in one hour. In time to over supply the Storm with water. Not over until Tommy f is out.
After he tries storms tons hate him fight him on it. Lunch major strikes.
Right now has 80 ships on Earth. Will lose ten a week tons repel clones while them out. End of November he will leave here. To the Gulf. Ok prior to and our son to AZ. Rod Ryan each got one. They had two she wouldn't ride. Bought it for her. Was qe2 now is Ella AKA Emily. Died from cancer mks sense she saw herself die yup. As Ella.
Mostly all hinges on the caverns of the New canal when they will drop.
In the glades the caverns steam. A few more days will begin falling. Fast now. Are emitting much more radioactive steam and gas. Today will be five bursts each about 2.5 and one 3.0 increases. Tunnels are halfway there. Yes. Increase now. Add to it 24/7 wasting.
The new canal they are at 10% Tommy f tries moving off them to do it later or never found he was doing it. We expect the caverns to be up to 20% by the end of today and that will be in there process let's start dropping at 50% which will be probably Wednesday and if the storm moves it will be far too late. What did this happening and it is happening because of Tommy F who wants it to happen to create a fight between them and foreigners and it's for the Mac proper plan.
Tons hate it we need it

Our son can travel from here not As neat but can might. As this storm will flow in and flood it for a week. The two might die after this storm all sick of them bja will prep. And by mid Oct mb.

Return him mks more sense both together.yup.

How I Met Jackie Presser (and left with all my teeth)
Before law school I worked as a furniture mover, Teamsters union shop. The Union dues covered a Kaiser card, and I never thought about it past the health insurance part.
Six years later, I was a Lawyer. There was a grocery drivers strike. The strike was tough, and there was violence on the lines. At least 50 strikers got arrested. My boss made a deal with the union, to defend those fifty guys in court.
I went from one little courthouse in places like Outer Monrovia, West Covina or Whittier, to another, and had charges dropped for all but two guys. One was just drunk, he got convicted of being drunk (but not the assault charge). The DA wanted to “make an example” of the other guy, so I put on a five day jury trial out in Lancaster. We won. Hands down.
A couple months later, the Teamsters had a convention in Las Vegas. Fernando, the shop steward, insisted that my boss send me. Most of the convention stuff was actually pretty boring. But Friday night, there was a “cocktail party” thrown by the Eastern Conference. Fernando had tickets, so we went (and my boss did not get in).
The party was in a massive ballroom at Caesar’s Palace. With a live band at one end, three or four bars, and two buffet lines with amazing mounds of lobster, shrimp and prime rib. All complementary. Fernando and I were happily feasting and sipping Jack Daniels. He explained that the Eastern Conference was famous for being corrupt, they had “ghost” employees at big employers, the paychecks came directly to the union hall, and paid for all this. And made the union bosses wealthy.
While we were feasting, guys came in dressed like Roman extras from Ben Hur, carrying the SPQR signs, and yelling something. We move closer, and now guys with trumpets (also dressed like Roman Legion characters) come past, and then four girls, bare from the waist up, scattering flowers. And Jackie Presser, the president of the union, carried like Caesar on a sedan chair by four oiled up muscle boys. (Jackie was a big man, easily over 150 kilograms, those muscle boys were getting a workout).
As the parade comes closer, I can see tough looking, steely haired teamster bosses ignoring the topless girls, and leaning over to Jackie, talking in low voices, and kissing the ring on his right hand. One after another. Then the chair is in front of Fernando, who kisses his ring, like he was the Pope. Presser asks him “who is this guy” nodding at me. Fernando tells him my name, and Presser says “you got 48 guys off, nice work”. And holds out his hand. With the ring. At that moment, I realized there were two ways to leave the party, with or without my front teeth. So I kissed his ring and accepted his praise.
