hmm, i have not divided during colorwork myself, so i hope someone who has will chime in. but i imagine i would put the sleeve stitches on holders as usual, and then cast on the underarm stitches alternating the two yarns. and hope that the stitch count and the dividing points were in some sort of harmony with the pattern.

it would make it very hard to do the short row shaping i like to use on round yokes, to tip the neckline towards the front. hmm.

Something fishy's afoot!

For anyone that's made the Halibut jumper before, feel free to share advice on the whole yoke situation. I hoped it wouldn't be too long, but there's still so much fish left to knit... and also how tf does someone split for sleeves in the middle of colourwork anyway???

Detecting exoplanets is no easy task because planets are vanishingly small and faint, masked by the brightness of their parent stars, and directly imaging them remains a major technical challenge.

i genuinely don't care how good a piece of ai generated art or writing looks on the surface. i don't care if it emulates brush strokes and metaphor in a way indistinguishable from those created by a person.

it is not the product of thoughtful creation. it offers no insights into the creator's life or viewpoint. it has no connection to a moment in time or a place or an attitude. it has no perspective. it has no value.

it's empty, it's hollow, and it exists only to generate clicks (and by extension, ad revenue.)

it's just another revolting symptom of the disease that is late stage capitalism, and it fucking sucks.

Technically... Usagi counts as crossover, considering he's from a different show.

ultimate ships challenge - the first otp Harry/Hermione  »  Harry Potter

Harry felt a thrill of something that was beyond excitement, more like fear. Now that he was so near, he wondered whether he wanted to see after all. Perhaps Hermione knew how he was feeling, because she reached for his hand and took the lead for the first time, pulling him forward.

Week 4: caramelised white chocolate cheesecake

I hated making this. Caramelising the chocolate in the microwave took over an hour. I have no idea how any of the bakers finished in time on the show.

The toppings were a problem, as I couldn't get cream, jelly or blackcurrants. I ended up picking the currants out of a bag of frozen mixed fruit, cooking them with a little sugar, and straining to make a puree. I didn't even bother making the chocolate shards - I know I can't temper white chocolate and I don't feel the need to prove it.

The biscuit base was also a pain to make, and next time I will be using hobnobs like usual.

So, it was frustrating when this turned out to be delicious. Totally worth all the pain. What a nightmare.

being best friends with absolutely no boundaries with art donaldson!!! everyone thinks you're dating even when you say your not, god only knows what they'll say when they see how the two of you act around each other when the two of you alone.

art coming back to his dorm after practice, exhausted, only to see you laying on his bed wearing nothing but his shirt and your pink panties. stomach down and feet swinging in the air while you read one of his comics. dropping his bag on the floor as he reaches up over his head to slide his shirt off his body, "what'ya doing, princess?"

before you can even turn around, his body is already on yours. his toned torso on your back and his lips on your neck. "waiting for me, hm?"

you giggled, his messy curls tickling your ear. you softly flinch away from him, turning over as he settled beside you. "got bored"

"yeah?" he gives you a lazy grin, resting his head on his pillow as he stares at your pretty face. "what do you wanna do, sweetheart?" and he's met with a sheepish smile, one that warns him of what's about to come. "go ahead, darling"

that made you smile, he knows you so well you don't even have to ask. with a kiss on the lips, you move yourself to sit between his legs, tugging his shorts down with hesitation. he's already half hard and he's leaking. you look up to meet his gaze, and your heart swells at the fact that you have the world's prettiest boy ready for you.

you lean down, placing kisses all over his shaft until he's completely hard. taking it in your hand and giving the tip a few kitten licks while you remain eye contact, art's breathing is starting to get heavier and you know it wouldn't take long for him to finish. you sink down on his cock, tongue flexing as you make sure you get all the way down to the base. one hand on his thigh to support yourself and the other softly playing with his balls.

art grips the blanket under him, he knows better than to rush you or else you won't let him cum. he's such a smart one, isn't he?

gagging noises mixed with his throaty grunts filled the room, he's going to get another complaint that's for sure but all he can focus on right now is how much he wants to shoot his load down your throat. but you have other plans.

you pull away with a pop, a string of saliva connecting you to him. you smile, softly giggling at his blissful state. you shift upwards, your hand on his wet cock and furiously pumping. "wanna try something" and the only thing art can do is nod as his body writhed on his sheets.

you continued to jerk him off, spitting occasionally to make it easier. until his thighs and stomach tenses and you know he's going to cum. you instantly got up on your knees, push your panties to the side and sink down on him. and immediately he's spurting inside of you, head thrown back and eyes forcefully shut as you began to move up and down through his orgasm. "f–fuck, you're such a dick, you know that?" he gasps, relishing the way that your cunt grips him.

you can only giggle, reminding him how you got your implant just recently. after he's caught his breath, you move yourself off him, watching how his cum drips out of you and lands on his now limp member. you crawl upwards to rest beside him. a tired smile adorned art's soft lips, giving you a peck. "let's get you cleaned up, hm?" he says before sitting up and placing himself between his legs for your turn.
