" Of course Anderson’s nervous. In his situation, anyone would be. Connor tips his head back, breathes through his nose, exhales and takes another drag. Nicotine calmness settles into his bloodstream. It works.

“Let me rephrase,” he says, his voice pitched lower, more seriously. “You know I’m a programmer. You may not know I’m smart, but I am. And I found — well. I know something.” He drags his gaze up to meet Anderson’s: almost a shock, cool-blue like ice water. “Here’s the real question. Do you want to be rich is, perhaps, a side note.”

Anderson’s eyes sharpen on his, a curious narrowing.

“How would you like to embarrass Elijah Kamski by stealing a ton of money that he has set aside illegally, revealing his bullshit to the world, and then splitting the proceeds and fucking off where we never have to talk to each other again?" "

Hank and Connor make plans and get rich. Read to learn how.

my rbb with the wonderful @sevdrag for the 2024 @dbh-bb is here! based on the song "opportunities" by pet shop boys, hank and connor plan a heist to get rich quick 1980s-style and then split ways. of course, it's never quiet that easy, especially when you start getting... attached. enjoy~!

Alloaro culture is wanting a similar word to qpr for a committed partner you have sex with sometimes that is not romantic: qpr isn’t right because it has the word platonic in it.

hi! in a very gentle way, i am vibrating to let you know this is incorrect :)

from the POV of someone who's been around the aro community since ~2013-2014 on tumblr, the only time i've seen folks start to say that qprs couldn't include sexual components has been when

they've learned an incorrect definition of QPRs, or

in one particularly notable case, the individual proposing it turned out to be quite sex negative and upset at the mere thought that people could think that qprs could include sexual activity. this individual suggested an alternative term for individuals desiring sex in QPRs in a rather explicitly alloarophobic measure. when gently called out from what had seemed to be a genuine attempt at coining a new term, the above came to light. smaller cases of this pop up every once in a while, but this one got some notoriety.

queerplatonic was always meant to mean "queering the idea of a platonic relationship", "queering the idea of what a relationship means", and by explicit definition, has always been broadly and radically inclusive. any relationship, so long as the partners involved agree it is a queerplatonic one, is queerplatonic. no exceptions. this can mean it involves romance, sex, traditionally platonic elements, and anything and everything those involved desire out of it.

tldr; the word platonic is in queerplatonic to say it is counter to the idea of a restricted "platonic" relationship.

No one said that raising the dead is culturally inaccurate. Raising the dead is morally unacceptable to the other characters in MDZS because of Chinese cultural beliefs of respecting the dead and allowing them to pass to their next reincarnation. Even when the dead animate on their own, it's a cultivator's goal to lay them back to rest. That's why Wei Wuxian is "culturally unacceptable". (I don't think he's a bad guy btw. I just don't think he's 100% morally pure.)

Raising the dead is culturally unacceptable and messing up reincarnation cycle? Nowhere in MDZS stated that. Please respect the original source when it never stated any of such thing. In Chinese belief soul parts are divided into part that went to reincarnation, and Hun part that was left on earth as resentment. So where did you gain your so-called "Chinese Belief?"

Furthermore, Please do not forget, That MDZS is a Taoism story. And even in Chinese real world Taoism, raising the dead is culturally acceptable technique. Read more on this:

Wei Wuxian is not 100% morally pure?

Whoaaa MXTX wished for her readers in MDZS end notes to have character like the not so 100% morally pure-Wei Wuxian.

Also in MXTX's interview:

LMAO understandable, it's kinda a funky word hahaha

my username is a mashup of my name, maddy, and the word "marshmallow." back when i was in high school, before i met my long distance boyfriend (who's now my husband), my mom wrote him a letter without me knowing, and in it she was all like "i just KNOW you two are gonna get married one day and maddy will leave home to be with you, so you gotta take care of them. they may act tough, but they're actually very soft, like a marshmallow." and my husband thought it was SO funny that my mom called me a marshmallow, and he came up with "maddsmallow" so i would never live it down lmaoooo. and now it's my username 😝

i do not know my mutuals names they are simply their url that i read wrong

[hotsugarbyglassanimals]

i feel like this site leaning heavily into the "pedophilia and incest and rape kinks are good" angle lately can be attributed to the mass expulsion of sex workers and black ppl on here ngl
