let’s talk about roronoa zoro who fucks you in his nice big pickup truck yes? yes.

zoro’s a nasty fucking man, pulling over into the nearest parking lot late at night just to heave you over the car console and right into his lap. it’s all the best that your skirt happens to ride up your hips, exposing the sheer thong you wore just for him. and despite your pleas for him to let you sit back down—that it’s just too public, you feel your words melt before they can form any meaning when he tells you “help me undo this ma.” in referral to the button and zipper to his jeans. when you ask him to let you ride, he’s oh so willing; isn’t it so sweet of him to give you some power and control? unfortunately, such “power” is nothing but an illusion he indulges in to let your head swell. you’re in denial, living in the delusion that you “can take it, zo”. too bad you can barely sit yourself halfway without babbling on about how much it’s stretching you and it just wont fit. you look stupidly cute, trying to plant your feet on the leather seat—one hand on his shoulder while the other snakes behind to rest flat on the steering wheel—whilst ignoring the way your legs burn and shake because they’re one bounce away from giving out. you needn’t say much to him, he’s already properly tugging your panties away from your sticky cunt, wrapping sinewy arms around your torso and fucking you on his dick himself. “better not fuckin’ run,” he mumbles, baring you to his chest like a prisoner, forcing you to feel his rapid heartbeat while pistoning you from below. and he’s so touchy too, large and calloused hands grabbing the meat of your ass, kneading and spreading and smacking them and causing you to lean further into him as you moan incoherent nonsenses. you’re blind and deaf to the world around you, only focused on the feeling of zoro’s tip feverishly dragging against the spongy spot that has you whimpering and whining into his neck. you take his cock with a mouthful of thank you’s, praising as pleading as your plush pussy hugs him tighter than what he’s ever known. admiring the way you cream around his base, he mumbles, “better let me cum inside princess. y’know how much i hate gettin’ my car messy.”

tell us about organ shoes…👂

Hi! Fantastic question and thanks @powerful-owl for the referral. I am thrilled to share some information about my niche interest and profession!

So organ shoes are a helpful tool that many but not all organist wear to utilize the pedalboard on many organs. As seen below. It resembles a piano keyboard and the notes are the same. These are lower bass notes, think the bottom third of the piano.

However, organ pedalboards have developed in different ways over time and to make sure I include any European readers indo want to briefly mention that the above pedalboard is "AGO Spec" (Built to the official American Guild of Organists Standard Organ Console Specifications) a diagram of which is show below.

Organs don't have to follow these guidelines, but they do standardize organs so that playing on a different instrument than your typical setup is an easier transition.

The two things to note are that the keys are radial and concave to facilitate the natural reach of the feet as you move from up and down the pedals.

This is not how they always were because as organs that would be recognizable as such to our modern eye were first being built in Europe the literature didn't call for a lot of technical prowess on the part of the player and was mostly for bass support and additional interest.

Most pedalboards were flat like the one below.

As composers such as J.S. Bach and Buxtehude added more prominent rolls of the pedals to their compositions the instrument also became more complex to accommodate.

However it wasn't until the Romantic Era (nineteen century) that literature started requiring dedicated shoes that help many today.

You see composers (particularly the French) began wanting smooth connected playing rather than the baroque composers who favored more articulated styles.

This requires heel and toe pedaling techniques. Most performance practice for the baroque era only calls for toe.

The performer above is demonstrating this song the heel to hold down one pedal so that they can transition to the next one with very little to no gap in the sound.

So, back to organ shoes, what you actually asked about lol. 😂

They feature a 1.5" heel typically that helps to facilitate the above mentioned technique. The bottom of the shoe is also made of suede leather that makes it smooth to move across the pedals while also giving a tiny bit of grip once force is applied. The shoe is also very lightweight and slim to avoid pressing more than the desired pedal.

So there you have it. An introduction to the pedalboard and also why organist have special shoes!

I like them a lot but many wear regular shoes and plenty play in just socks so all of the above really comes down to preference.

I loved preparing this, I used to be a public school teacher so I apologize for the info dump/lecture, but I can't help myself 😅.

Please let me know if you have any other questions! I LOVE talking about the organ!

if its any consolation technically you never will become him?? He kind of already exists... not like- in the future or anything.

> "...D-Do you genuinely think I'm an idiot or something?"

You are now back in your cubicle, sitting there fidgeting with a referral notice. Another disciplinary warning added to the record. God, how many of these do you have? It's probably at least three by now. Next to the notice is that same old bottle of pills to help keep your manic episodes down. Warren dug you out of the hole you made for yourself yet again.

well i was in so much pain i called my mom after my doctors appointment earlier crying bc i didnt know what to do and then she drove a whole 2 and a half hours to help me and her and my gf helped me go to the emergency room and a receptionist was so nice walking me across the hospital very slowly bc i was limping (offered a chair but it wouldn't have helped ease my pain) and talking to me bc i accidentally went to the wrong area of the hospital at first.

and then i had to wait so long in so mcuh pain with my mom and gf but i got the surgery i thought i needed and the person who did it was so nice to me and was in awe of how much pain i could stomach (bc its kinda impossible to fully anesthetize for this procedure) and it was so so affirming also because both the surgeon and the person who did my intake were like 'idk why the doctor earlier today said to wait on seeing if you should get surgery for this you really really clearly immediately need surgery' and the surgeon was like 'also the antibiotic they gave you isn't great heres what antibiotic and other drug i think you should take instead' and gave detailed reasons why and just clearly had a lot of experience with my condition and it lined up with everything i thought i understood about it and they commented on how i seemed to be really in touch with my body and that the ultrasound showed that everything was a lot deeper than it already looked from the outside and it was misinformed for the previous doctor to be saying it wasn't bad enough yet or for expecting it to come to a head

and it was just really really helpful to have my mom in the room with me talking about how ive had trouble with this for years and that she knows it must be really bad because i have a really high pain tolerance and never say anything unless somethings really bad and just generally adding things i was too nervous would sound like malingering if i said them myself

the removal was excruciating but now that its been a few hours its amazing i can actually kinda walk and sit and lie down without pain as long as i'm careful

and whats great on top of that is that they told me to keep my referral to the surgeon next week because they said they would be able to give me surgery to try to prevent this from ever recurring which is really really exciting even if this was the worst i've been dealing with this for 7 years now. and i was so worried that it was an either or thing where i couldn't get permanent treatment unless i had an active flare up but when i have an active flare up i just want it gone asap. but i guess thats not the case!!!!

and it was really nice to see my mom she treated me and my gf to dinner afterwards. this was her first time seeing our apartment and im glad it was after we deepcleaned but also glad that she saw glimpses of what living with our roommate is like bc her consoling us about the situation was really appreciated too

With countless websites vying for attention on the internet, it's crucial to employ effective strategies that propel your site to the top of search engine results. In this comprehensive guide, we'll reveal the fastest way to rank a website and outrank the competition.

Understanding the Importance of Website Ranking

Before delving into the fastest ranking methods, it's essential to grasp why website ranking holds such paramount importance.

One of the most powerful ranking factors is building high-quality backlinks from authoritative and relevant websites. Seek opportunities to earn backlinks through guest posting, content partnerships, and outreach campaigns. Quality backlinks not only drive referral traffic but also signal to search engines the credibility and relevance of your website.

Leveraging Social Media

In today's interconnected world, social media plays a pivotal role in website ranking. Utilize platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram to promote your content and engage with your audience. Social signals such as likes, shares, and comments can positively impact your website's visibility and authority in search engine rankings.

Monitoring and Analyzing Performance

Finally, monitoring and analyzing your website's performance is essential for continuously optimizing your ranking strategy.

Identify areas for improvement and iterate on your strategy to maintain and improve your website's ranking over time.

Ranking a website quickly requires a strategic approach that encompasses keyword research, high-quality content creation, on-page optimization, link building, social media engagement, and performance monitoring.

I can vouch for all of this! Not one lie. I've been playing Warframe for like 7 years now and it just keeps getting better. If you'd like to give it a try, it is a FREE to play game.

Yes there is a cash mechanic, they have to pay for servers and development somehow. But you can earn almost everything in game, including the cash coins by trading with other players.

Here's my referral code: https://www.warframe.com/signup?referrerId=5904255c3ade7fd9b77982e8

You will get a free 7 day 'Affinity booster' to help you level faster at the start of the game if you sign up with my code.

Trying to explain Warframe to new people is impossible without sounding absolutely insane. It's like, if a game had an identity crisis...but in a good way. An identity buffet, if you will. There's so much in this game it's sensory overload.

Oh yeah, you can add a birthing QTE rhythm minigame too, because why not. I'm waiting for the inevitable sex update, cause y'know, we've gotten this far without imploding, so it might as well happen. Like what the fuck even is this game anymore. Nobody knows! Not even the devs themselves. It's all held together by dreams, duct tape and vibes at this point, but somehow it works.

Hop on Warframe, we have:

workers' union committing terrorism against capitalists

incel who tries to destroy the sun because he fumbled a bad bitch (she took the kids)

a boyband that you have to slay for weapons

and an eldritch entity beyond human comprehension that can only be defeated by the power of love

And if you think all that sounds unhinged out of context, don't worry, It's just as unhinged with context.

AWS WAFv2 For Hotlink Protection: Future Of Content Security

How to stop hotlinking with Amazon CloudFront, WAF, and referer checking.

AWS WAF Classic will be retired in September 2025. This update describes how to utilise the latest AWS WAF (WAFv2) to avoid hotlinking. Screenshots have been updated to reflect AWS WAF Management Console changes.

Hotlinking, also known as inline linking, is a kind of content leeching in which an unauthorised third-party website embeds links to resources referenced in a major website's HTML. Your website may be invoiced for third-party websites' content as they don't pay for hosting. Slow loading times, lost money, and legal issues may result.

Hotlinking may now be stopped using AWS WAF. AWS WAF, a web application firewall, integrates with Amazon CloudFront, a CDN, to protect your web apps from typical online vulnerabilities that can reduce application availability, security, and resource use.

Solution overview

There are several techniques to handle hotlinking. The Apache module mod_rewrite may verify the Referer header on your web server. You may then redirect the visitor to your site's home page or display a 403 Forbidden message.

If you utilise a CDN like CloudFront to speed up website delivery, web server Referer header validation is less useful. The CDN must validate additional requests for that content because they are unlikely to reach the origin web server, even if your web server verifies the headers (in this example, the referer). The CDN caches your stuff at the edge of its servers.

Figure 1: Cache request-response flow.Hit-and-miss cache encounters

Figure 1 shows the procedure:

A user client (1) requests from CloudFront edge point (2).

Edge locations try to return a cached file. This request is a cache hit if the cache replies.

The origin (3), which may be an Amazon S3 bucket, receives a request for a new copy of the object if there is a cache miss and the content is incorrect or not in the edge.

Cache hits prevent the origin from applying validation logic to the user's request since the edge server may fill the request without contacting the origin.

Two methods for solution implementation

This document provides two AWS WAF configurations to prevent hotlinking:

Transferring protected static assets (images or stylistic elements) to static.example.com ensures that you just need to check the Referer header.

Static files are in a directory on the same domain. This approach includes extending this example to check for an empty Referer header.

Your website structure and security needs will determine your strategy. The first approach lets you set up a Referer header check to guarantee that photo requests come from an allowlisted sub-domain, while the second way checks for an empty Referer header. The first technique prevents unaffiliated third-party sites from embedding image links, whereas the second allows users to share direct connections.

Terms

Key phrases from this post:

AWS WAFs use web ACLs tied to CloudFront distributions.

Each web ACL has one or more match criteria and rules.

Match conditions examine request headers or URIs for particular criteria using one or more filters.

The names of HTTP headers are not case-sensitive. Referer references the same HTTP header. However, HTTP headers are case-sensitive.

Requirements

A CloudFront distribution is needed to configure an AWS WAF web ACL. Configuring a CloudFront distribution with an S3 bucket origin is covered in Configure distributions.

Approach 1: Subdomain separation

This sample AWS WAF rule set comprises one rule, match condition, and filter. The match condition checks the Referer header for a given value. Traffic is allowed if the request meets rule conditions. If not, AWS WAF blocks traffic.

Due to the static files' subdomain (static.example.com) being accessible exclusively from example.com, you will restrict hotlinking for any file without a referral.

Approach 2: Domain-wide content with path filtering

The second technique filters by URL path and allows blank Referer headers. Create an AWS WAF web ACL with numerous rules and extra match criteria, which are filters. Instead than validating the Referer header once, the match condition validates it twice. First, check the request header. The URL-style Referer header is checked in the second validation.

Some people may prefer to share the photo URL directly. Accessing the picture directly in the browser can help avoid a negative user experience. This solution is better than the previous, which needed sub-domain picture requests.

You must also check the request route (/wp-content) for AWS WAF to protect multiple folders under a domain name.

In conclusion

AWS WAF, a web application firewall, monitors and manages HTTP(S) traffic to your protected web applications. Using the AWS WAF custom rule builder, you protected your website's Amazon S3 bucket content from hotlinking.

Preventing unauthorised third-party websites from connecting to your static content reduces bandwidth costs, user experience, and resource leeching. Two robust referrer check methods are described in this post. Following the least privilege approach, you may restrict AWS WAF rules to.jpg or.png image file extensions.

Referer checking prevents unaffiliated websites from utilising your bandwidth and backlinking to your images, but clever attacks can purposefully design a request to bypass it. Inconsistent referer header interpretation can also be caused by browser plugins, server-to-server queries that fake header data, or privacy-based web browsers. Recognise these anomalies and consider token authentication and signed URLs for private content protection.

Web browsers cannot detect changed Referer headers. Referer checking should be utilised with AWS WAF application protection rules, Bot Control, Fraud Control, and DDOS protection to secure online applications.

How to Measure the Impact of SEO on New Patient Leads

Modern dental practices need to abandon their exclusive dependence on personal referrals and conventional marketing methods to develop their business. A dental practice needs to show up on the first page of search results because patients who search for dental services will automatically choose the practices listed on that page. Dental SEO becomes essential in this situation. Digital Transformation Hub offers Dental SEO Services that focus on achieving meaningful patient inquiries and setting appointments, in addition to ranking improvements. While achieving visibility should be your first accomplishment in this process, it remains only a beginning. Your dental SEO program requires patient inquiry metrics to measure its performance after visibility.

The fundamental objective of Dental SEO The core goal of SEO operations in dental practices involves attracting new patients despite its technical origins for ranking improvement at Google. Your dental practice secures critical patient journey positions when patients search for emergency dental care near their location or Invisalign treatment in their city. Numerous dental clinics pay for digital marketing solutions without analyzing their actual performance impact. Underperformance and guesswork develop because of this situation. Your practice transforms into a more efficient operation and achieves better growth after you master the relationship between dental SEO initiatives and patient acquisition numbers.

Tracking Organic Website Traffic Organic traffic growth demonstrates that your dental SEO expert maintains an effective direction. Google Analytics and Search Console provide tools that help you track visitor numbers which come to your website through unpaid search results. The traffic data indicates that your optimized content under service pages, blog posts as well as local landing pages delivers successful results. Although traffic provides useful indications about your SEO expert's performance it represents only part of your overall situation. The essential aspect at stake consists of the activities visitors execute after entering your website.Website conversion tracking begins with tracking visitors who select phone options over clicking website content. Website conversion tracking determines the measurement of significant patient activities performed on your website. The three patient actions of calling for appointments together with form submissions and booking services tell us that visitors wish to become actual patients. You can track the number of individuals who perform these actions using Google Analytics goals which reveal their source either from search engines or Maps or additional referral channels. The conversion tracking system enables SEO practitioners to connect their work to practice outcomes.

The Power of Call Tracking in Dental SEO The majority of dental offices continue to receive appointment bookings through phone calls. The call tracking process plays a vital role in dental SEO strategies which Digital Transformation Hub incorporates as part of their comprehensive services. Each source of website traffic receives its dedicated phone number through dynamic number insertion. Every person who reaches your website by using Google organic search allows their phone number to connect to that particular SEO visit activity. Tracking through dynamic number insertion enables you to precisely observe all the calls that your SEO campaign delivers each month.

Implementation of Google Business Profile The implementation of Google Business Profile serves as an essential tool for generating leads from local areas. Medical practices usually generate their first medical patient impressions through Your Google Business Profile (GBP). Local SEO success heavily depends on making optimal use of this listing particularly for searches containing "near me" phrases. The GBP engagement metrics let you view user interactions such as requesting directions clicking to call and visiting the website. The actions you measure let you assess the local SEO performance of your dental SEO expert because they demonstrate purposeful investment.

Connecting SEO to Lead Sources Trackdown of lead origin points remains vital knowledge for every business. The first phase of patient decisions receives little SEO attention from dental clinics although they usually depend on internet searches as their main source. Your patients first visit your teeth whitening blog content then depart your site before returning later to book their appointment after searching your brand name. The SEO process took part in each step of implementation. The process known as lead attribution becomes crucial since keeping track of customer relationship management (CRM) systems enhances its effectiveness. The most crucial online step points each patient to their entry point.

The Importance of Tracking Micro-Conversions The majority of clinics track only phone calls and appointment bookings as performance indicators but small initial interactions known as micro-conversions also need equal attention to measure user intent. The system tracks users' engagement activities which span from checking many blog pieces to downloading dental healthcare materials joining subscription services and following destination pages to other parts of the website. Micro-conversions function as strong signals which demonstrate patient attention levels and showcase their current decision-making phase. You can tell the user has treatment on their mind because they have clicked your dental implant page three times within a week while also reading your post-surgery blog. Your tracking of micro-interactions helps you locate content deficiencies as well as enhance call-to-action effectiveness so that you can modify your SEO content strategy to assist patients toward deeper stages of the conversion process. The analysis of patient online behaviour proves essential for optimized patient conversion sequences that lead to greater site visitor retention.

Avoiding Common Mistakes in Dental SEO  TrackingThe frequent issue faced by dental SEO involves dentists who measure their success only through vanity metrics which include impressions and visits. These metrics alone have no impact on genuine business success unless dental professionals connect them to lead generation and revenue production. Using call tracking remains one of the biggest SEO mistakes performed by dental companies. Most medical practices function in the dark about phone call sources from their SEO strategy because they do not utilize call tracking. Optimal management and tracking of Google Business Profile actions is necessary because both factors lead to missed opportunities and attributed leads. Organizations sometimes commit the mistake of evaluating their SEO strategy before sufficient time has passed. The establishment of dental SEO marketing authority requires extended time since instant results are not achievable through paid ads. The effective assessment of a marketing campaign requires observation during a 3–6 month period to determine future outcomes properly.

How Digital Transformation Hub Measures SEO Success Our position as a top dental SEO company requires total openness in all operations. Our SEO campaign success rests on delivering tangible results instead of achieving specific rankings. Each client gets monthly updates which display organic visitor statistics and keyword reports alongside telephony statistics from completion numbers and information about patient system acquisitions. Our dental SEO services connect SEO measures with patient relationship management databases to accurately track every incoming patient lead. Our specific strategy guarantees quantifiable results for each dental service including general, orthodontic and implant or cosmetic treatments that you wish to grow.

Conclusion SEO That Brings in New Patients. Dental SEO offers patients a chance to discover your practice when patients need services during emergencies. The combination of appropriate marketing choices allows you to understand precisely how SEO creates steady patient income through affordable patient acquisition. Your dental practice misses out on complete SEO performance understanding because it needs to track client generation data rather than website traffic data alone.

Not to be all "Einstein did nothing until he was 112" but like you can get qualifications at any age or get a referral into a decent job or find a partner or make friends or help raise a kid.

You can fuck around enough to get debilitating chronic health conditions, but even then you can get to a point where you have a decent quality of care and some friends and some hobbies and I promise you that can be enough!! I like my life so much more without a high powered job but with animals and family and a carer who makes sure I don't live in a nest of mouldy hummus.

All the people I was consoling about how their future was RUINED at 26 are now 32 and figuring it out.

I know I'm talking to a brick wall lol cause I think you've mostly just got to age your brain a bit and be an adult for longer than you've been in secondary education and you calm down and realise opportunities come back around. Also a bunch of those people that did the school-uni-career-marriage-kids path will fall out of the woodwork going FUCK I HATE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS ACTUALLY I'M GOING TO SHEAR SHEEP FOR A LIVING. ALSO MY HUSBAND SUCKS. ALSO I'M A DUDE NOW. and that definitely helps ease the panic that you've fucked up by not following them.

Scalable Link Building Strategies for Enterprise Sites in 2025

Link building has changed dramatically over the years, and in 2025, outdated tactics won’t help your enterprise site stand out in an increasingly competitive search landscape. To gain a real edge, large websites need a scalable, data-driven approach that not only earns high-quality backlinks but also drives sustainable growth and search engine visibility. Whether you're trying to improve domain authority or drive targeted traffic, enterprise link building in 2025 must be smart, efficient, and deeply strategic.

As the best digital marketing agency in Malappuram, Beegains Technologies Solutions understands the power of strong backlink strategies. Our team specializes in helping enterprise websites build authoritative links that deliver results.

The first step is conducting a thorough link audit using tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, or Moz. This helps uncover toxic backlinks that may harm your site and highlights strong ones worth replicating. A clean backlink profile ensures a solid foundation to build on.

Next, define clear link-building goals. Are you aiming to increase brand visibility, rank for high-value keywords, or drive referral traffic? Knowing what success looks like helps shape every part of your strategy.

A core pillar of any successful campaign is creating link-worthy content. Focus on assets that naturally attract links—such as original research, case studies, industry reports, and comprehensive guides. This kind of high-value content becomes the magnet for quality backlinks.

To amplify this, find relevant link opportunities by analyzing competitors’ backlink profiles and reaching out to the same or similar domains. Tactics like broken link building allow you to replace outdated or dead content on other websites with your fresh, relevant content.

Another powerful method in 2025 is leveraging digital PR for enterprise sites. This includes guest posting on high-authority blogs, pitching stories through platforms like HARO, and working with industry journalists and influencers. The goal is to earn not just a backlink—but meaningful visibility and trust in your niche.

Beyond tactics, enterprise link building also demands relationship-building. Engage in communities, comment on blogs, attend webinars, and join conversations in your industry. These relationships often lead to natural, high-quality backlink opportunities and long-term collaborations.

Once you have a system in place, it's time to scale link building through personalized outreach. Craft custom emails that offer clear value—whether it’s a guest post, resource update, or a collaborative opportunity. The key is to be genuine, not spammy.

Finally, it's essential to monitor, measure, and improve your efforts. Track new backlinks, changes in referral traffic, and domain authority growth using Google Search Console and professional SEO tools. Optimization never stops, and regular adjustments can make the difference between stagnation and growth.

In summary, enterprise link building in 2025 requires a blend of creativity, analysis, and consistency. Focus on value-driven strategies, stay up-to-date with SEO best practices, and always prioritize relevance and authority over quantity. With the right framework, your enterprise website can scale its backlink profile and dominate the SERPs.

If you're looking for the best digital marketing agency to guide your enterprise SEO and link-building strategies, Beegains Technologies Solutions is here to help. As a leading name in Kerala, we deliver proven strategies that build authority, drive traffic, and grow your business online.
