THE IMPORTANCE OF BUSINESS COMMUNICATION AND INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS ON IM4U AGENCY EXAMPLE

In the dynamic landscape of business, successful enterprises understand that behind every company, there is a person – an individual with unique aspirations, goals, and preferences. Regardless of a company’s size or stature, effective communication with partners is pivotal in fostering strong relationships that drive growth and success.

Building fruitful partnerships hinges on effective business communications. When businesses prioritize transparent, respectful, and supportive communication, they pave the way for mutual understanding and trust. This fosters an environment where both parties are aligned with shared objectives, leading to enhanced collaboration and shared successes.

just had the thought 'in the end the most important thing varric taught rook was how to make a home for, with, and in other people' and then I had to go lie down on the floor and clutch at my head in unceasing agony for a few hours, as you may well imagine. hawke and the kirkwall crew........ in the end you kind of saved the world a bit in the most characteristically indirect and chaotic of ways. not by anything in particular that you did or achieved or accomplished (lmao imagine!), but just by -- having existed, and by the love that was always there, despite it all, in all its imperfections, even when no one was saved by it in the end. you're not here right now and you're not quite haunting the narrative but I hear your voices bickering and arguing and laughing from the other room. (and so, I think, does varric. all the time.)

'did you think you mattered, hawke? did you think anything you ever did mattered?' yeah actually, varric says with da2 and keeps saying through the series. you were here. and I loved you. and as it turns out that mattered more than almost anything in the world, no matter how long it lasted or how fucked up it was at the time or what else happens, because varric manages to pass that feeling, that intangible... home, that echo of you all as you were together, that love, hopefully the best parts of it, on to someone else for them to bring with them on their journey, with their family. and maybe the world will be kinder this time. you never know. merrill's line of 'Everything affects everything. We were born, a bunch of things happened, and now we're in a mess with our friends.' varric's greatest fear of becoming his parents. even through the wreck and the ruin of the world, ghosts upon ghosts upon ghosts of love -- malcolm hawke, who we never even see, but his life touched hawke's and hawke's touched varric's and varric's touched rook's and rook is passing it on to the family they're creating. the unbroken legacy of love shines through in ways that are stronger and stranger than any magic. help

it's so hard to accept that so many of the people sharing your space, breathing your air, passing by you on the street... so many of them are willing to throw you under the bus for a limp dicked promise of a """greater economy.""" sure, they smile when they see you and they don't shoot you on sight, but all of the non cishet white male traits you have, they hate those. they're scared of you in the abstract. and they're willing to gamble your life over their own insecurity and incorrigible hatred without so much as a fucking acknowledgment of their own depravity.

realizing I have a weakness for the "give Heavily Traumatized Guy a surrogate daughter/little sister and they each learn to grow and heal with the help of the other" trope

[screambirdscreaming]

At the bus stop one time there was a gaggle of preschoolers waiting to catch the bus for a field trip day, and someone walked past with a couple of friendly little dogs, to great general delight.

But after a little bit, the dogs were getting overwhelmed, and the preschoolers were gently coaxed to back off so the person with the dogs could continue on. Specifically, one of the preschool teachers said, "Sometimes, when you're small, being surrounded by big people can be a bit scary and overwhelming. Even if they are friendly."

This was recieved as great wisdom: after all, the preschoolers were also small, and understood how scary and overwhelming big people could be! And the dogs were indeed even smaller than the preschoolers, so it made sense.

What was funny and charming was that, upon absorbing and reflecting on this wisdom, they all felt the need to tell it to one another. In tones of great insight, they turned to one another and said, "Did you know? Sometimes when you are small, being surrounded by big people can be scary and overwhelming! Even if they are friendly!" Back and forth, without any particular concern that they were all saying the same thing. Have reached comprehension of an insight, it must be shared!

I must say that this behavior is less charming in tumblr users than in preschoolers. Not least because tumblr users, having gained a little analytical skill to misuse, insist on Summarizing and Generalizing and Unifying the insights they repeat, quickly turning any interesting new information into formulaic dogmatic mush.

                                  [ ˑ ˑ ˑ ] 𝑫𝑶𝑵𝑵𝑰𝑬 𝑾𝑨𝑻𝑻𝑺' 𝑻𝑨𝑻𝑻𝑶𝑶𝑺 & 𝑷𝑰𝑬𝑹𝑪𝑰𝑵𝑮𝑺 , bramble's quick and easy guide .

NECK, SHOULDERS AND BACK :

donnie has a big neck piece that depicts medusa. her expression is best described as one of serene rage. her eyes are totally white, which contrasts with the heavy black and grey detailing of the rest of the piece. the snakes of her hair fan out around his throat and along the underside of his jaw.

a wilted sunflower behind his right ear, usually hidden behind his hair. got it not long after leaving longing, new mexico. it is meant to celebrate james gallowes.

behind his left ear, you'll find a single crimson lipstick stain that's also usually hidden by his hair.

on the back of his neck, under all his hair, you'll find a biblically accurate angel design.

a laughing skull wearing a battered cowboy hat on the back of his right shoulder, done in black ink.

severed angel wings on both shoulder blades, done with pops of red ink and with several bloody feathers scattered around the area.

a rattlesnake that follows the curve of his spine.

an anatomical heart with a noose wrapped around it on the back of his left shoulder. it was also gotten in celebration of james gallowes.

on the right side of his lower back you'll find a silhouetted version of the two men shaking hands from pink floyd's 'wish you were here' album cover.

just above the pink floyd tat, you'll find a pinup style tattoo of a lady with dark curly hair, and a cowboy hat. she's covered in tattoos and is wearing what looks like an unbuttoned plaid shirt and cowboy boots. she's winking and throwing devil horns with her left hand.

next to the pinup tat, you'll find a skeletal cowboy wearing a battered poncho with a smoking pistol in its hand. it's also got a toothpick in its mouth if you look closely.

EARS :

his first piercing was an animal canine tooth on a chain hanging from his left ear lobe, though this piercing started as a simple silver hoop. he gets a second one in the same lobe, and often switches it up between a simple stud earring or a silver hoop.

he has helix piercings in both ears, and both resemble skeletal hands. he often switches it up between the skeletal hands, belt buckle cuffs or simple silver bands.

TORSO :

there are various lipstick stains ranging from deep purple to bright red on his hips and his abdomen.

a ram's skull with four horns, and a third eye on its forehead done in a detailed comic book style, with twisted branches crawling underneath the design in black ink. this tattoo is located on his pectorals and spreads out across the tops of his shoulders.

on the right side of his ribcage, you'll find a large piece that depicts a demonic creature with bat-like wings, carrying two deadly flails. flanking it on both sides are bats and ravens.

there's a stylised black ankh on his lower abdomen, with the loop going around his belly button, and the rest of it trailing down and stopping on his pelvis, just above his groin.

to the left of the ankh design you'll find the words 'no future' in gothic lettering on his lower abdomen.

a pentagram on his left hip, this was the first tattoo he ever got.

a guitar pick on his right collarbone that was gotten to celebrate his father. it's one of his more recent tattoos.

donnie has nipple piercings. they're simple silver bars that you can totally see whenever he's wearing a tight shirt or a white tank top.

RIGHT ARM :

he has a grim reaper in a cloud of skulls on his bicep. this is easily the most intricate of his tattoos.

a marlboro cigarette box with flowers sticking out, instead of marlboro, the box says 'cowboy killers.' you'll find this one just under the grim reaper design.

the second tattoo donnie ever got was a mountain lion crouching on his forearm, the design is a heavily stylised one, highlighted with pops of colour on the eyes.

there's a cartoon penguin wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses for emma on the inside of his forearm, above the mountain lion.

to the left of the mountain lion you'll find the torso of a knight with a sword, the knight has only a helmet, no face, and several arrows sticking out of his back.

the ac/dc lightning strike on the side of his wrist, just under the bone.

a horses skull on the other side of the same wrist, has an outline of the horse's head around it in dark black ink.

a stylised bat can be found on the back of his hand, this one has been heavily influenced by gothic art styles. there are various stick n'poke spiders and cobwebs accompanying this design, they almost act like a border to it.

on his knuckles and his fingers, there are outlines of the knuckle and finger bones done in crosshatched black ink.

LEFT ARM :

there's a barbed wire design around his upper forearm, above his bite scar, with some drops of blood coming from the barbs.

there's a yosemite sam above the barbed wire, firing off his pistols. this was got as a joke with his brother brody, who used to call him yosemite sam whenever he got angry as a child.

he has 'rancid creature' in gothic lettering on his shoulder, and it has been highlighted by a bright green drop shadow.

there's an outlaw riding a bucking horse and firing a pistol on his bicep.

next to the cowboy design is a demon bent over, farting. this was a design that izzy jones came up with as a joke, and donnie liked it so much that he got it.

to the right of the cowboy design, you'll find a couple of cherubs, similar to the ones found in medieval and renaissance paintings, with punk hairstyles and cigarettes in their mouths. both cherubs have guitars slung over their backs. this one he got for his other bandmates, sammy laurel and clara bell.

you'll find a skull with two monstrous hands with claws for nails holding it, so the jaws of the skull are wide open just below this tattoo.

a cowboy boot with a snake wrapped around it can be found next to the bite scar on his forearm.

along the other side of the bite scar, you'll find a simple outline sketch of a long wyvern-like dragon fighting a knight.

on his middle finger there's tolkien's original sketch of smaug from thror's map to the lonely mountain, it's been done in bold red ink, and was gotten as a tribute to his love of fantasy.

on his other fingers, you'll find small tarot-inspired cards, and small stick n'poke doodles, like smiley faces, stars, crosses, crescent moons, suns, and hearts.

on the back of his left hand you'll find a portrait of a woman wearing a wide-brimmed witches hat with a cobweb forming in the curve of it. she's smirking and has wiry, black hair that looks as though it's wet. her eyes are nothing more than white circles, as the top half of her face is cast in the shadow of the hat she's wearing. you can see the hint of her cleavage and nothing more.

LEFT LEG :

there's a longhorn skull on his thigh, done in a bold comic book style.

he has two horses on the outside of his thigh, both are up on their hind legs, locked mid-fight. this one has been done in heavy black ink.

he got an american football wearing sunglasses on the inside of his ankle for lee bennett after he died.

besides the football is a ballet dancer with mechanical legs and flame-red hair. she's mid-pirouette, with a wide smile on her face. this one is dedicated to stacy bennett, who was bound to a wheelchair after her interaction with the same creature that killed lee.

NOTES :

on both arms, you'll find various space-themed tattoos, such as planets, moons, shooting stars, star clusters, galaxies, and so on, in the small gaps between larger pieces.

you may also find some stick n'poke flowers, such as roses or sunflowers, done in these gaps as well. these will have been done by members of rancid creature or by friends looking to practise their tattooing skills on him.

the number of tattoos donnie has before he gets clean is far less than the number he has after getting clean. tattoos are his addiction, and he'll look to get one for literally any reason. all the people who mean something to him, and who have meant something to him, will have a tattoo dedicated to them somewhere on his body. which means that if we've plotted a dynamic where donnie and your muse are close to donnie in any capacity, i'll likely plot with you that donnie will get a tattoo somewhere for them, and he will show off about it.

birfday gift ideas

my baby brother turns 18 tomorrow (aw/ ew) and i have like 24 hours to come up with something if anything (i have till like the 30 it dont matter lol) but id like to ask anyway what yall think?

last year i gave him a keychain (twas a matching set of tanjiro and nezuko lol) but every year before its always been handmade cards (he surprised me with a cute gon keychain once it was sweet). anyway

i have lots of thread but very little time so out of all the options id say its my best shot bc watercolours are HARD and i cant draw anything outside of the same 2 blorbos i always do lmao

shopping for stuff isnt exactly feasible either (exams soon also im lazy) so id rather invest an hour or two for something thats going to collect dust on his desk so i can tell his future grandkids i was a good older sister whereas he would eat my food and make me walk uphill barefoot both ways everyday in the cold to go to the kitchen.

First and foremost, while this post contains content about docking, I am firmly not interested in debating it. It is part of the standard for this breed in my country and I'm not going to tolerate knocking reputable breeders for adhering to said breed standard.

That said, I am potentially interested in getting into breeding and would like some input from knowledgeable folks.

Some up front info: I have experience with the breed and absolutely adore them. It is a docked breed and part of my interest in getting into breeding is because I want a undocked dog without sacrificing quality.

If I did pursue breeding it would only be under mentorship.

The medium length version of my plan would be to acquire a wonderful male puppy from an excellent breeder. Title him in agility, conformation, and some original breed purpose things. Do above and beyond health testing. Basically prove him to be an exemplary example of the breed. Throughout this I would also be developing a solid relationship with his breeder.

I would want his breeder to arrange the pairing for his breeding, first litter at minimum. I would want to be fully educated on why they decided on the pairing they do and everything that goes into that.

From that breeding I would like to keep a female. She would be docked per breed standard and I would prove her as I did my male. If, and only if, all these things played out this way would I then use her as my foundation bitch for my own program in which the puppies would be undocked.

My program would likely not produce dogs often. Only when I am looking for my next dog and know that I can find quality homes for all puppies. I would also look to my mentor for education on how to match puppies to homes that suit them and all that entails.

So my question to knowledgable folks is, does this sound like a good approach for getting into breeding? Would you be open to working with and essentially taking someone like me under your wing?

As much as I desire an undocked dog from this breed, I don't want to pursue that in an irresponsible or impulsive manner.

Much thanks for your words of experience and wisdom.

Have you ever fallen in love with an Aquarius? Because I know where Gojo guilt trips himself about Geto, for the past 10 years. You’re physically unable to forget them. You won’t. Have you ever conversed seriously with a Sagittarius? Because I can understand why Nanami listens to Gojo in spite of 99% of what leaves his mouth being complete bullshit. They are so brutally honest that you’re not allowed to ignore the discomfort they cause you. And they are also very willing to explain what you won’t understand. After they make fun of you, of course… Have you ever seen a furious Cancer? Because I can more than just imagine how Geto must have felt being in the same room with Nanami when Haibara’s body was brought back to jujutsu tech. You would be wishing there was a hole you could cower back in until the hurricane that is their emotions exploding dies down a couple notches. And even then, you still would be scared shitless to even look at them, much less to open your stupid mouth and speak to them. These men? I have met them. And apparently Gege has, too.

Me, in my comments: Daniel is so interesting to write, he’s very intelligent and he always has something really insightful to say about what’s going on

Daniel, in my current wip: “Mm, that’s nice, but you’re not getting me in bed and getting out of this,” Daniel murmured. He let Armand kiss his cheek and then gently ducked away before he could do it again. “Besides, you fuck like an animal. I think my dick will fall off if I have to do that seven nights in a row.”

For panel of the funeral, I think the guy behind the flowers on the coffin might be Asa? The head shape and face markings fit, and it'd be fitting for him to be there directly opposite Mitzi.

oh word, this guy, right?

didn't spot that, i think you're right....ft. what i believe is asa's first appearance otherwise, for comparison:

design sure seems to match in structure and markings, even got the darker ears visible in the funeral pic. and definitely adding Placement relevance too like you say, to be standing opposite mitzi....with Maybe Mordecai between them.

me, encountering a photoshoot of or interview with an actor who plays a fictional character I am Not Normal about, out of costume and character and living their life as an actor, unexpectedly and abruptly reminding me that the fictional character does not in fact exist or have a life or interiority and is in fact portrayed by a Real Fucking Person who does exist and has thoughts and goals and dreams and a whole life entirely unrelated to that nonexistent fictional character, and could hypothetically stumble across my Being Not Normal On The Internet about one of many characters they pretended to be in exchange for a paycheque: ah lads not again
