isnt it crazy that someone can make a completely legal app for ios but if apple doesn't want it in its app store because of lol lmao reasons you have to then go through a gazillion loops just to get this one app and also millions of people buy apple's products because they don't see the problem with an operating system that fully controls what you can or can't have on your device and also has several other major problems. insane

I have found two (2) exquisite pieces of furniture on the side of the road this past week. I'm choosing to believe these are birthday gifts from the universe! So, thank you world for free things in the garbage.

UGH why do tvs have to be so expensive 😭

[sl33py-g4m3r]

another horrifying rabbit hole~~

fast fashion is crap, the products are crap, the products can be dangerous, and also potentially a product of slave labour

stop using temu and shien~~~

its bad for the environment and everything in general.

also products of (i'm assuming) shein and temu are the result of slave labour of the Uyghur people, and that's why everything is so cheap

among other scary stuff like trackers being sewn into clothes, bugs, and various other things. toxic metals, bad smells that won't go away, lead in things made for children,

there's a lot~~~

and they (temu specifically tho shien might too idk) use gambling techniques to get you to spend more or shop w them more and even worse sell your personal information and can skim money from your accounts even if you pay via apple pay~~~

don't buy from them, don't support fast fashion, buy stuff from reputable retailers that won't do this crap....

stay safe and stop using temu/shein/alibaba and sites like it~~~

(it's like that anti nuclear rabbit hole I was on except it's temu/shein horror stories lol)

And there was a reason. A few hours before he paused the tariffs yesterday, he tweeted on truth social encouraging people to buy stocks. And then the tariff pause made the stock market bounce back massively

He literally intentionally crashed the stock market, encouraged people on his shitty right-wing social media site to buy stocks once they were super low, and then reversed the tariffs causing stock proces to jump back up, thus making anyone who followed his advice a bunch of money. The man is openly running a market manipulation scheme with the Entire Fucking Economy. Is posting about it openly stupid? Sure. But don't think for a moment that he's not having exactly the impact on the economy that he wants to in order to enrich himself and his cronies

This can not be real 😭

One of the straight up dumbest things a sitting President has ever done. Fully an unforced error.

Won't you quit your work darling?

Sylus Qinche was a man who got what he wanted.

Always.

With his wealth, influence, and terrifying reputation, there was nothing beyond his grasp. Cities bent to his will, his enemies trembled at the mere mention of his name, and the underground empire he built within the N109 Zone was untouchable.

And yet—

There was one thing Sylus could not control.

"Sweetie," he drawled, propping himself lazily against the kitchen counter, watching his wife gather her things for work. "Remind me again why you insist on working a job when I can literally buy the entire company for you."

His wife, buttoning up her crisp blouse, shot him an amused glance. "Because, Sysy, I like my job."

Sylus scowled. "You don’t need it."

"But I want it."

"I’m rich, (Name)."

"I know that, Sylus." She rolled her eyes, grabbing her bag. "We are both rich. You think I don’t have money?"

Sylus huffed, blocking the doorway before she could leave. "That’s not the point. The point is, you don’t have to work."

(Name) smirked, tilting her head, challenging. "Oh really? then tell me why you work, and yet you forbid me to do so."

"That’s different. I run a bussiness, sweetie. You sit in an office and deal with reports."

"Exactly. You do illegal stuff, I do legal stuff. Balance."

"Sweetie." Sylus’s crimson eyes gleamed with determination and admiration. "You could be lounging in luxury instead of wasting your time doing paperwork."

She arched a brow. "And what would I do all day?"

"Be pampered. Spoiled. Worshiped by your beloved devoted husband."

"Sylus, regardless of me working or not, you spoil me everytime, so whats the difference hm?"

Sylus groaned dramatically, dragging a hand down his face. "That’s another problem—"

"Oh no, we are not starting that conversation again." She poked his chest. "Move, darling. I’m going to be late."

Sylus crossed his arms, blocking her path completely. "Hmmm...No."

She sighed. "Sysy—"

"You can’t leave, kitten." He smirked, fully prepared for the counterattack. "You’ll have to get past me."

She stared at him for a moment.

Then, with a sweet, innocent smile—

She grabbed his tie, yanked him down, and kissed him senseless.

Sylus, caught off guard, groaned into the kiss, his hands immediately snapping to her waist, his grip possessive, unwilling to let go.

And that—

Was his mistake.

The second he melted into her touch, She swiftly ducked under his arm, grabbed her bag, and bolted for the door.

"Damn it— (Name)!"

"Love you, I'll be back with takeouts later before dinner!" she called over her shoulder, already gone.

Sylus stood there, stunned.

Then, he exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair. "That woman…"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fifteen minutes later

Sylus sat at the dining table, arms crossed, brows furrowed as Luke and Kieran stood before him, desperately trying not to laugh.

"The missus escaped again, huh, boss?" Kieran smirked.

Sylus shot him a glare. "She always does, my kitten is too smart for me."

"Maybe next time, try not to fall for her kiss trap," Luke chuckled.

Sylus huffed. "It was a cheap shot."

Kieran grinned. "And yet, you fall for it every time."

Sylus groaned, rubbing his temples. "She’s impossible."

Luke nudged Kieran. "How long do you think before he tries again?"

"Three days," Kieran guessed.

Sylus glared at them both. "I will make her quit her work, someday."

Luke and Kieran exchanged a look.

"Sure, boss. Yeah! Goodluck with that.."

Knowing well that before even going to war, sylus had already lost when faced by his adorable wife.

I know i hate work but what if, sylus's wife refused to quit just because she also wants to contribute on making funds for their family (despite sylus having everything-)
