Johnny is a greedy kisser

He’s like an untrained dog, humping your thigh while he slobbers and licks into your mouth. He’s so gross about it too, groaning and grunting into it, pinning you in place with those big paws of his.

He’s grabbing at your waist, fingers digging into your skin until you’re squirming under the pressure of it, that feverish intensity.

And he’ll whine and complain when you try to pull away for air. Like a needy puppy that’s too damn big for his own good.

He’ll let you take one breath, staring at you with those half-lidded eyes, glazed over in delirious voracity, and then he’s back on you. Biting at your bottom lip, cock throbbing when you whimper in protest—he likes when you put up a bit of a fight, likes cradling the back of your skull as if you’re not pushing at his stupidly burly chest and arms.

And he does it while he’s splitting you open on his cock too. He’s breathing into your mouth, drooling all over your lips, and sucking on your tongue as if he’s trying to suffocate you :( he loooooves making a mess of you

very cool and clever of The Mountain Goats to wait until today and then drop the official music video for This Year

[takenhost]

he spilled some milk :\

also this perspective is HELL why would i ever willingly draw it

[blackdykegirlblogger]

i received a lot of asks regarding the recent inauguration/why i haven't really commented on it, so i'll just address all my thoughts in this one post.

what can i say? i've marched in protests, i've donated, i've petitioned, i voted blue and implored everyone i knew to do the same. and guess what? america chose what they wanted, and now america is going to get what they want. i've warned people again and again and again, i've reposted, i've spoken out, i've educated myself and others.

what the next 4 (or more since apparently trump is eligible to be reelected) years look like is out of my hands. i'm focused on trying to get my shit together, on guaranteeing that my bag stays secured and that my mental health stays in one piece. we have elon out here doing goddamn nazi salutes and more and more rights being stripped by the day. and as a queer woman, a BLACK queer woman at that, i knew from the moment that i saw that monster on the ballot that we're in deep fucking shit. maybe some of yall are just now figuring it out or catching on, but umm, welcome to fucking reality.

so please, knock it off with the "chaka, why aren't you saying anything?" "chaka why aren't you doing this?" "chaka, why aren't you doing that?"

i am a NINETEEN year old black lesbian who is still in the midst of discovering what the next 10, 5, hell, even 2 years of my life are going to look like. and i'm scared, i'm extremely fucking scared, especially for myself and my family (y'know, other black people). if i want my blog to serve as an escape from that, to be my one area of peace amongst all the chaos and bullshit, let me have that.

and guess what, there are a million other blogs who are speaking out, there are hundreds of nonprofits for you to join, i can even recommend some knowledgeable people on youtube that can give you the full scope of everything that's going on.

but please, leave me be.

[nonstandardrepertoire]

it has come to the attention of the groupchat that i have neither read The Great Gatsby nor seen any film or stage adaptations of it, so here is my attempt to summarize what i think the plot is based solely on cultural osmosis:

in The 1920s™, some guy from the Midwest (maybe Kansas?) moves to New York City and falls homoerotically into the orbit of some nouveau riche heartthrob who lives out in the Hamptons. i think the Good Country Boy's name is Nick Caraway (like the seed), which would make it funny if he wound up in Rye, NY, but i get the vibe it's a resolutely unfunny novel, so this doesn't happen. the rich guy's name is probably Tom, and either his last name is Gatsby or there's some other character who's also rich who has that name. (George? George Gatsby? is that right?)

Tom (let's go with that for now) is married to or cheating on his wife with Daisy, who is generally an irresponsible drunk party girl type, but this could be because of Trauma. Tom has a new car, which is Very sexy, until Daisy runs over a baby with it and drives it into a pool. (i think it's her baby? but it could be someone else's)

anyway, Nick is at first very beguiled by these people and wants to be part of their set (and also to kiss Tom and/or George deeply and passionately with tongue), but then he is like "wait, you are all actually terrible people and there's so much alcoholism here i don't think this is actually how i want to live" and he has this realization under the eyes of an optometrist's sign which glimmers across the water (the Long Island Sound??? that seems too far for light the travel that clearly, but the other option is the?? Atlantic Ocean??? and that's Worse) with a green neon light that symbolizes G-d looking down on us impassively from a distance full of sorrow but not intervening

and because he's a Good Country Boy at heart, the novel ends with Nick going back to Kansas (Tennessee?) to escape the Rotten City and the last page closes with one of the all-time great adverb deployments as we're all borne back like boats, ceaselessly into the past

Not disagreeing with your point on how god in Christianity and Judaism are quite different (Same thing happened in China with the Logos and the Tao being named the same)

However, I would have to say that "wizened man with a beard sitting on a cloud" was actually a medieval innovation. For many a century Christians did not depict God the Father. In Western Europe, art of God as "wizened man with a beard sitting on a cloud" only starts being documented in the 15th century. When art of "wizened man with a beard sitting on a cloud" started appearing in Eastern Europe, the Russians were so perplexed that they tried to ban it (it didn't work). That's weird, if Jupiter were syncretism with the Christian God why don't we see him earlier? Because he wasn't, perhaps?

I would be more sympathetic to your point if you pointed out similarities between Jesus and Hermes or Helios in art, but the intricacies of Christian Theology was so infuriating to the world at the time that Greek philosophy was changed by bickering bishops. Words were re-defined. People split over slight differences in how they described God. Changing an iota would result in fist-fights. Yaddi-yadda.

Also correct me if wrong, but wasn't the reason for Zeus and his many affairs being that everyone wanted to be a son of the Heavens?

Anyway, while Christianity is very much unique and developed in a different trajectory from Judaism, saying that it's all Zeus is like me, a Gentile, saying that Ruach HaKodesh is ACTUALLY Asherah or something. Christians are Hellenized, yes, but then Philo is as essential as Plato in understanding our doctrine, especially when it comes to concepts like the Word of God.

Also considering heresies like Marcionism or the many flavors of Gnosticism basically calling the God of the Tanakh actually evil for creating the world and stupid compared to the better God of [insert non-canonical scripture here]; saying that the Christian God is God of Abraham and Isaac was not the PR move you think it'd be

I am curious as to your view on Muslim claims that we all worship the same God actually

Small reminder that whilst many christians believe and very loudly proclaim that their god and HaShem are the same, many Jewish people do not agree.

I do think style straight up walking into the sea to get fadel to give him another chance is the funniest thing he’s ever done. Like the thought process of “well fadel is still mad and saying he wants to kill me. So I guess I’ll die. Sayonara” is hilarious

Happy WIPsday! I have been wanting to post for approximately 2 weeks, but it's been chaosville at my house, so I haven't done it. I'm not seeing any tags, so I'm going to start us off this week!

So.... in the past two weeks I've written almost 2,000 words on Simon's Two Mums AU and about 4k words on Firstprince Soulmate BS. This is a lot for me! I'm excited about both of them! Soulmate BS is marinating after having had a very important scene written, so finally (already, always) got some overdue attention, and I'm really enjoying where it's going.

Simon's two mums:

Then, mum says, "Is it standard practice to cast spells on students without their agreement or parental assent?"�� "I'm sorry?" [omitted for spoilers] says.  "Mum," I hiss at her.  "I'm sorry, Simon, but I'd be very curious to know if this is a common experience for students here, or if it's something that's happening particularly often to my son." Her voice is hard and angry. Her lawyer voice, the one that knows she's going to win, and doesn't mind letting you know as well.  "It's…" [spoiler again] sits back down. "It is, actually, quite common, but it is also very likely that it's happening particularly often with Simon."  Mum seems surprised at how easily he goes along with her. "I'd appreciate if you would draft a policy document that provides students and their parents with more explicit knowledge of circumstances in which they may be subject to magical correction or intervention."  "Of course, yes," [this person's name would spoil you] says. "Absolutely." He moves to stand again, and then sits back down. "Is there anything else before Simon returns to class?"  "No," Mum says. "Unless you have anything you'd like to talk about, Simon?" Mummy asks, and I could cry. I almost do.

Soulmate BS and tags below the cut because I know what y'all here for.

BRILLIANT SHIT I say. Welcome to some soulmate lore knowledge.

"Mmm, yeah," Henry says, then with a little more clarity. "Sorry, what are we having a hard time believing? It's been quite the night in that regard."  [quip removed for spoilers] Alex says. Henry hardly gets in his demure Indeed before Alex says, "I don't think it's that hard to believe that I'm a better dancer than you.” "No," Henry says, and then he presses his thumb into his phone and turns the screen towards Alex.  You're Linked! the Heartlink banner reads, overlaying an illustration of red, pink and brown confetti. "Oh, shit." Alex says.  Congratulations! Your bandmatch was calculated at a 97.82% level of synchronization. That's well above the threshold at which we recommend a parallel re-sync. Your concierge, Alana, will be in touch within 24 hours to facilitate contact with your soulmate.  "Quite," Henry says. Alex can feel his heartbeat in his stomach, suddenly. It's a little bit nauseating, like he might throw up.

Thanks to @talentpiper11 for the name inspiration for the soulmate matching app. Which obviously every soulmate universe must have.

Tags and hugs to all my fandom friends. I hope you're making it through this week, lovelies.

Hey, sorry to bother you, but you seem to reblog a lot of good life advice posts. I was wondering if you have any good advice for making cover letters and resumes or could point me in the direction of some posts on the subject?

Oh, thank you very much! I’ve actually spent my whole adult life in volunteer/community funded positions and have no experience applying! But I’ll tag my friend @sparklypurplerock who has more experience — do you have the spoons for any advice/links for nonny?

I did think this post seemed comprehensive and direct.

Anyone else reading — what helped you most?

I’m a person who’s under the opinion that prison sentences ought to be rare and utilitarian. That is, I think they ought to be reserved for people that are a legitimate danger to the general public. Which is a very rare type of criminal. The vast majority of people in jail should not be in jail in my opinion. Some other punishment should have happened or what they did shouldn’t be a crime in the first place.

In releasing January 6th rioters however, Drump has pardoned several of the types of people I think that prison sentences ought to actually apply to. There’s people who have been turned in by neighbors and family members who have said on record with full seriousness that they want to kill the people that turned them in.

I saw an interview of the son of one of the January 6th rioters who turned his father in who said that his father has threatened to kill him multiple times. There is now no truly safe place in the world for that young man.

They’ve also released a couple of leaders of far right militias. These are legitimately dangerous people. And whether you believe prisons should exist or not, I think we can agree that something ought to be done to protect these people. But nothing will be done. Nothing at all. Because a pardon just wipes the crime from the record. Normal rules do not apply.
