In astrology, Neptune represents our dreams, inspiration, art, connection to something greater; but also our escape routes, self-deceptions, and collective fantasies. In each sign, Neptune reveals the fantasies of a generation, but also its blind spots.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Aries (1861–1875):Here, we have a generation that dreamed of the "great hero." Of conquering things, of starting revolutions, of being pioneers. What happens here is that Neptune casts a veil over violence: war, struggle, and relentless action are romanticized. Impulse is confused with purpose. It's that fantasy that might conquers all, without seeing the emotional exhaustion or lack of real direction.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Taurus (1875–1889): This generation's dream was stability. Beauty. Art as a sacred refuge. There was a kind of collective fantasy that material things could be eternal, that if you had a nice house, a garden, delicious food… you were already safe. But you can also fall into idealizing money, comfort, or pleasure as emotional anesthesia.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Gemini (1889–1902):Here, what is idealized is the mind, the word, communication. This is the generation that dreamed of connecting through ideas, that falls in love with beautiful words, magical speeches… but also runs the risk of getting lost in the smoke of its own verbosity. Too much information, too little substance. Speaking without saying. Reading without feeling. Lying without knowing that you are lying.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Cancer (1902–1915):This generation dreamed of returning home… even though that home often no longer existed. Home, mother, country, all of this is strongly idealized. There's a constant nostalgia, as if something has been lost forever. The past is romanticized, but there can also be a sense of collective abandonment, or an emotional dependence disguised as unconditional love.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Leo (1915–1929): These people wanted to shine. They dreamed of art, of fame, of being special. And they achieved it: many classic film stars, for example, come from this generation. But there was also the illusion that external recognition is everything. Neptune in Leo can confuse self-love with an inflated ego. They fall in love with their own reflection and sometimes end up acting for an audience that doesn't even exist.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Virgo (1929–1943): The fantasy here is one of perfection. Everything clean, everything in order, everything under control. Work as a form of redemption. But there's also the trap of wanting to solve everything from the mind, from duty, and not from emotion. There's an ideal of purity that can become suffocating, like wanting to cleanse the soul with bleach. A generation that may dream of saving the world… but forgets to take care of itself.

°❀⋆💐ིྀ Neptune in Libra (1943–1956): The ultimate romantic dream. The soulmate, eternal love, world peace. This generation grew up idealizing romantic love and also social harmony. But when Neptune is here, there's a risk of avoiding conflict at all costs. Relationships are based on appearances, on "let's not fight," even if everything inside is rotten. A fantasy of a perfect union.

°❀⋆💐ིྀ Neptune in Scorpio (1956–1970):Darkness and desire. This generation is fascinated by power, sex, mystery, what lies beneath the surface. They dreamed of being completely transformed, of being reborn from the ashes. But there was also a lot of illusion about control: thinking you can manipulate without consequences, that you can touch the abyss without losing yourself. Here, Neptune becomes dense.

°❀⋆💐ིྀ Neptune in Sagittarius (1970–1984): Complete idealism. They dreamed of total freedom, of traveling, of finding the truth in some distant temple. Much of New Age spirituality comes from this generation. But of course, there can also be messianic delusions, people who think they have all the answers, false gurus, and empty promises. Faith can be blinding if there's no real basis.

°❀⋆💐ིྀ Neptune in Capricorn (1984–1998): The generation that dreams of having everything in order, of being "someone." Professional success, goals, status… all of that is idealized. But there's also the trap of believing that if you reach a certain position or structure, you'll be happy. Neptune here disguises itself as a 10-year plan. And it can be a huge existential void if there's no soul in what's being built.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Aquarius (1998–2012): The collective illusion, literally. Here, the dream was the future: technology, freedom, the global community. The internet as a new religion. But there can also be a total dissolution of the self: living for the like, becoming confused by our online identity, thinking we're hyperconnected when in reality we feel lonelier than ever. Neptune in Aquarius can make us float on cloud nine… without realizing we need grounding.

°❀⋆💐ིྀNeptune in Pisces (2012–2026): Neptune returned home, and with that came a brutal sensitivity. This generation feels EVERYTHING. Spiritual connection, magical creativity, true empathy… but also hyperanxiety, a need for escape, merging with what cannot be touched. It can be beautiful or devastating. There's an enormous capacity to heal, but also to lose oneself in broken dreams, impossible loves, etc.

Yo are requests still open? If no, you're still amazing and I really love your content and I hope you have a nice day.

If yes: headcanons for Azul x reader but make it queerplatonic. They will never kiss or have sex but they're very much ride or die in a way that is more than mere friendship or family. They refer to each other as "business partners for life" and would get married for tax purposes but otherwise just chill with each other.

Why? Cause while yeah Azul could be secretly a super romantic guy, its way more fun to picture him going "romance & sex? ew that gets int he way of money" and then just turning right back to playing chess with his partner as they plot to takeover the world together. Also because I've neveer seen much queerplatonic relationship headcanons out here

Business Partners for Life

featuring: Azul Ashengrotto

headcanons

──── ──── ──── ──── ──── ────

Romance? ❎ Profits? ✅

Azul is genuinely relieved and even ecstatic to meet someone who not only doesn't pursue him romantically, but actively rejects the idea of any romantic or sexual tension between them.

Azul considers such things as “emotionally unstable and time-consuming.”

You agree, and it becomes your shared motto, “No distractions, just dividends.”

ఌ︎.

You both literally signed marriage papers to manipulate tax loopholes.

There was no kiss, no bouquet, just notarized documents and a mutual shake of hands and nod.

The certificate hangs in your shared office, Partners since July 25, xxxx, legally and professionally.

ఌ︎.

You run the Mostro Lounge like co-CEOs.

You each have personalized mugs,

Azul’s - “CEO of Emotional Stability (sometimes)”

Yours - “Executive of Not Catching Feelings”

ఌ︎.

Your idea of intimacy is a nod of mutual respect or an approving look from him.

On very rare, emotionally charged nights, you lean your head on his shoulder for two seconds. He does not move. That’s basically spooning.

“You're breathing on my notes.”

“Your notes needed warmth.”

ఌ︎.

Weekly “Business & Life expansion” meetings over coffee at 10 PM.

You two plan everything from career paths to financial security and etc.

ఌ︎.

You are the only one Azul allows to challenge his strategies.

You are the only person he plays chess with.

Your brainstorming sessions are dangerous. If the two of you teamed up in real-world finance, capitalism might collapse.

ఌ︎.

If someone mocks Azul's past? You bury them in thinly veiled (legal) threats.

If someone insults you? Azul ruins them academically or financially, clean and legal.

“We don’t do petty revenge” Azul says.

“We do full-scale life sabotage” you correct.

ఌ︎.

You’re in each other’s wills.

“In case of accidental demise,” Azul says calmly, handing you a thick binder.

You both have a full legacy plan in place. If either of you dies, the other inherits everything, including control of the Lounge.

ఌ︎.

You both list the other as the primary emergency contact.

You once had a mock drill to test how fast Azul would get to you if something went wrong. He passed. In under 3 minutes.

ఌ︎.

Everyone thinks you're dating. You both don't correct them.

Jade knows the truth and finds it amusing. Floyd calls you Azul’s “money spouse.”

Neither of you care. If people assume romance, they’re clearly not smart enough to understand your superior form of partnership.

You and Azul are the platonic version of soulmates, no hand-holding, no kissy stuff, just financial domination, nightly coffee, and plans that sparkle with shared ambition.

──── ──── ──── ──── ──── ────

𖦹 A power couple, indeed. What we need is a man who’s intelligent, not just in academics, but in finances as well. Correction - what we need is Azul Ashengrotto. ✅

𖦹 noted ✍🏻

𖦹 Just gonna find a man named Azul Ashengrotto.

𖦹 Thank you anon and you too!

YOUR’E TOO LATE, I ALREADY DIED — CHO HYUN-JU

synopsis: the first time you laid your eyes on hyun-ju, you were entranced from the get-go. everything about her had drawn your interest, you had loved her more than anything in your life. so, when you had woken up to find her gone, your entire world collapsed.

authors note: i cant stop writing angst yall please help.

“Hey, stop!” You laughed, waving your hand out to stop the batter from coating your face. The kitchen smelt of burning pancakes and scrambled eggs, orange hue shining through the blinds.

The woman in front of you looking more beautiful than ever. Baggy shirt that hung off her shoulder covering the grey shorts she was sporting underneath.

The sunrise glowed on her skin like nothing you’ve ever seen before. In that moment, she was the definition of ethereal.

Domestic life was always one you dreamed of, your childhood growing up was filled with lost memories, instability, loneliness, and lots of sorrow.

You always wanted to find the right one, the one that communicated effectively, made time, loved you right, in ways you’ve never been before. As you grew older, and all your friends married off, living happily—you were beginning to grow hopeless.

Until, you met her.

Cho Hyun-ju.

It was as if time had stopped, from that moment on you knew she was the one. Her slick black hair tied into a low ponytail, silver earrings on display and winged liner complimenting her brown doe eyes.

You couldn’t help but approach.

“Hi.” You breathed out, a smile growing on your features as you made eye contact with the tall woman before you. Her hands settled in front of her chest, crossing over each other in a meerkat-like pose.

“Hello, did you need something?” She asked, voice gentle, shy. Shifting on both feet, you tucked a piece of fallen hair behind your ear.

“Sorry if I sound too blunt but I couldn’t help but think you were absolutely gorgeous. God, that sounds creepy, i’m so sorry.”

She couldn’t help but look around in bewilderment, as if the compliment was foreign to her. “Me?”

“Yes, you silly!” You laughed, eyes closing as your teeth were shown on full display.

Hyun-ju stared down at you, blush coating her cheeks and heart warming up. You spent the rest of that afternoon getting to know each other.

You always relived that day.

It wasn’t long into the relationship that Hyun-ju opened up about her struggles, her family and friends cutting her off, debt racking up from her procedures with no way to fund them. She was lost.

Whenever she told you, she expected you to get up and walk away but you had done the complete opposite. Instead, your hand covered hers and lightly squeezed, offering as much comfort as you could in that moment. “It’s okay, i’ll be here with you every step of the way. You’re not alone.”

You thought you had offered her the best chance at stability, with your job promoting you and her soon moving into your apartment once your relationship had gotten more serious, you assumed everything had been okay.

You didn’t know that she was offered a chance at making money to pay off her debts as well as enough to move you and her out to Thailand like she had dreamed.

You didn’t question it when she had woken you up on an early Sunday morning to make breakfast and had the whole living room set up for an in-door date. Flowers, candy, rom-com movies waiting to be chosen.

By the time you were snuggled against her, whispering sweet nothings in her ear and letting the comfort in the air rest over the both of you—her black painted nails were fiddling with a business card that sat in her shorts pocket.

When you had awoken the next morning, your body was lost of its warmth. Hyun-ju’s side of the bed completely made, pillows fluffed and the stuffed meerkat gifted by you sat gently on the sheets.

The only thing that she left in her presence was a neatly placed post-it note on your bedside table.

I’m going to make us a better life, i’ll be back in a week. Pack your bags then. I love you <3

What you didn’t feel that morning was her placing a gentle kiss on your forehead, thoughts of being free and in paradise in Thailand. Living the life you both deserved.

The note had confused you to no end, but you trusted her to know that she was making a good decision for herself, for the both of you. You had gone about your days as normal, even though the absence of your girlfriend lingered in the air.

By the 6th day, right before the week ended—you had packed your bags. Your belongings sitting in a travel suitcase with her own luggage placed neatly in the walk way of your shared apartment.

The knock at your door had startled you, first one you’ve heard ever since Hyun-ju had left. Heart beating, you raced to the door in a hurry. The week you lived without her was long, missing her scent, her voice, her.

The grin that ate away at your face slowly vanished when she wasn’t on the other side.

Instead of seeing the woman you longed for, a small box was placed on your door mat. Black with a pink ribbon wrapped around it—bending down, your fingers took a hold of the object.

Carefully inspecting it, your curiosity got the best of you.

“Hyun-ju…” Your voice trailed off, eyes immediately filling with tears. With shaky hands you cradled the box close to your heart.

Her silver earrings laid inside.

Obey Me! College Majors

I have wondered what different majors the brothers would have. As a full-time college student, I am curious what kind of person they would be?

Lucifer:

Hands down I think Lucifer is a business major. Did not have to think about it.

Business is a common field to go into for authority/power and money. It is also considered a highly networking-based major and is projected with decent stability. 

His focus is what I’m unsure of. I think perhaps a concentration in finance or entrepreneurship, maybe, very maybe, would be operational business analytics

Could have multiple concentrations, I wouldn’t pass it by him to be insane and choose to have three concentrations. 

He is the student who wears very nice clothes, like suits and ironed dress pants, to his classes. He would not be caught dead wearing sweatpants anywhere. 

Doesn’t party, he only goes to formal networking events. He likely studies on campus, either in the business building or library. Occasionally, as a treat, he goes to a local coffee shop. 

He is an honor student, he’s taking an absurd amount of credits. His counselor advised against it. Lucifer didn’t listen. He will die on the hill of being a top ranked student. Caffeine stopping his heart might kill him first though

Mammon:

Advertising major with a minor in product design.

Firstly, I feel like Mammon wouldn’t initially get into college because he wants to. This would be a family/societal pressure to do more which makes him really hate his first couple of terms, but he learns to really love college. Mainly for the social aspect, but he genuinely does like learning

I feel like he didn’t announce a major until the end of his second year or into his third year. He had to cram credits for his major.

I think he stuck with mainly general credits for his first two years with a little dabbling around as he tried to figure out his major. 

With wanting to make money he probably stuck around in the business area, thinking he had to pick like finance or something to get anywhere.

Discovers a passion for advertising and product design

Mammon has no hesitation in telling anyone they’re idea sucks and here’s why. He loves chatting, he loves being client-facing, advertising ends up being the first business class he clicks with. He’s spent a lot of his time persuading people and getting them into his ideas.

I think advertising more than marketing because I feel Mammon does have a distinct creative side (looking at his modeling career) and so it fits a bit better 

Product design was the fun classes he opted into so he could design things he thought were super cool (and you should totally give him a thousand dollars to make) but also give/get feedback from others.

Mammon is not often the voice of authority, and he’s not inherently using the classes to be that, but it feels good to have people listen to what he truly believes is good advice (even if it isn’t the best or best worded)

Mammon is largely social and does often make at least a cameo at most parties.

Leviathan:

Simply does not feel like he’d opt into college, but if I had to apply something it would be a humanities major, specifically focusing on digital humanities with a plethora of minors/other focuses. Minors in an eastern language

As much as he is on the computer, Levi doesn’t feel like someone that goes into computer science, databases, or anything with coding. That would be a hobby if anything. 

He has a passion for digital media, lots of storytelling and composition and the such, but not inherently making it himself. That also feels like something he’d keep as a hobby in room to himself, less than an announced major. So he isn’t an art major or anything in that ballpark.

Thus, a humanities major, with it being a bachelor of arts, he does pick a language, likely an eastern one, such as Japanese, Korean, or Chinese. 

He loves to focus on the cultures developed in fandom spaces, such as comics/manga, blogging, early internet spaces, and the such. So things like digital history, comic history, film studies, game studies,  etc. He dabbles in the history and usage of a multitude of media/mediums.

Since he already has to take a language for his degree, I think he’d commit fully to it and make it a minor. I think Japanese would be his choice. 

He does not party, I don’t even think he’s on campus 90% of the time. He does his damnedest to have fully online courses every term. He will, very begrudgingly, go to campus for a class he’s really into if there is no online alternative. 

Levi shows up in a hoodie and sweats. His bag has maybe one charm on it. If he does, it is something that he sees as quite niche/could not be clocked by anyone on campus. He’s not about to out himself on his tastes.

Satan:

Law student who takes Latin, minors in classics, used psychology and chemistry for science credits

What is something that could one up business? Law. Satan is taking law to one up Lucifer in some way, also it keeps him from the business school since that’s the other major he thought of. 

Satan opts to take a language, that being Latin, to be extra ✨fancy✨

He minors in classics as it provides him with different things to read while also being able to have a discussion with others who have read it as well. 

Very specifically I think he took chemistry and some intro courses to psychology for the credits he needed for science. The guy is a murder mystery fanatic, chemistry just feels accurate for that. Psychology feels like a given, he seems to love understanding how people think and behave. 

Satan absolutely knows every cat, owned or stray, within a five mile radius of the campus. Any place that is a common spot for cats is where he normally is. Be it a cat cafe, a corner street where food gets put out, or university led cat therapy. 

He prefers to study in single-person rooms in the library, but does occasionally opt to read on the open floors. 

Asmodeus:

Cosmetology major who self-studies in the dermatology field

Asmo doesn’t feel like someone who would want to go to college. He has enough of a social following that he doesn’t need a degree to further his work. But, he gets curious and college life has a sort of excitement around it.

Cosmetology (or really anything within the beauty field) is on the nose. Asmo’s entire persona is focused around beauty and amplifying it. However, I do think he is curious and, on his own time, looks into dermatology.

He likes knowing what he puts on his skin and what products he’s using. Thus, he likes being up to date on what chemicals are causing what effects. 

This allows him to have a reputation in not only knowing what will make you most gorgeous, but also what’s best for your skin

If the class doesn’t have required attendance, he isn’t there. Asmo prefers to be out in groups and avidly popping into parties. He is always dressed up and wearing new outfits everyday.

Beelzebub:

Kinesiology or exercise science paired with a minor in food studies, focus on nutritional studies. He’s also a student athlete.

I imagine that if Beel went into a career it would be a personal trainer. Becoming a pro athlete is there, but it feels more like something he enjoys, more than a hobby, but not something he wants to make a job of. I also feel like he would get a lot of job satisfaction in helping people reach their goals.

Beel also vehemently believes fitness foods better taste good. He does not believe in unseasoned chicken with plain rice. He wants people to enjoy every aspect of their exercise journey, both the working out and the meal plans that support it.

As an athlete, he also benefits from kinesiology, helping to avoid things like overextension. It also lets him help out his teammates.

I couldn’t leave out something food themed within his college life. I think he’d minor in food studies, focusing on nutritional studies as to benefit his work. If he does have spare room for an extra class, he takes cultural food classes to widen his palette and appreciate different cuisines. 

He’s often found in the campus gym or recreational center. He does go to after game parties, but doesn’t stay for very long. He has a strict bedtime to get to. 

Belphegor:

The third and final brother I don’t think would go to college. I don’t fathom him liking school in general, specific schedules and homework from professors he’s never met. But if he took any classes I imagine it would be about astronomy.

Belphie is known to not like authority figures and I don’t think professors get excluded from it. I feel like he’d only do good in classes that he likes the professor.

With his sleeping habits, I imagine he doesn’t find many things interesting enough to merit hours of homework and uncomfortable lecture seats. 

The only thing he seems to enjoy significantly enough that he would research is astronomy, and at that I don’t know if it would be a degree’s worth.

If he were to be a student, I imagine you could spot him napping anywhere on campus. Benches, lecture halls (long since ended), hallways, lawns, and someone once spotted him asleep on top of one of the statues.

hihi! hope you’re doing well :)

could i request Rohan, Josuke, Narancia and Kakyoin with a casually philosophical reader?

i was playing pizza place on roblox for the nostalgia (i haven’t played since 2018) and someone joined and asked me what the game means and what the point of playing is. and instead of being normal, i talked about how work at pizza place is a monotonous and peaceful game where you just make pizzas. over and over again. there’s some variety sure, different jobs; and you can upgrade your house. but it’s overall a simple game that i play because it makes me happy. and it gives me hope that if i can find happiness and value in the small contained world of pizza place, i can find happiness in real life too. a quiet life can be a happy one too, even if you don’t achieve all your dreams or have as much money as you’d like, there is happiness in the small things.

i was humbled when that person replied “that’s nice sweetie” and then walked away. also, i said all of this (paraphrased) while my roblox avatar was a small cat with the biggest eyes ever. and my avatar was half the size of a regular one so my neck was level with the counter.

but yeah! those characters with a reader who can turn any conversation into a meaningful discussion on philosophical subjects like happiness, the meaning of life, how we measure success, our purpose in the world, etc. ty :D

HiHi!! I know which game your mentioning! Hahah but yeah I can only imagine your avatar, I hope you enjoy!

˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗

Rohan:

Rohan was a man who had a terrible way of grouping people together into their own clicks; Josuke and Okuyasu, the Idiots. Koichi and you, the trustworthy. He never took your constant ramblings any mind, until he realized your words were more than simple rants.

You two were sitting quietly, sipping tea and suddenly you’ll be speaking like you were the prodigy of Pluto, and of course at first he had thought you were being pretentious- because that’s his job, obviously. But as he listens to you, really listens, it dawns on him. You’re making better narrative observations than him.

“There’s something beautiful about a game that lets you exist. No stakes, no pressure, just purpose through repetition. Rohan, blinking hard; you were just talking about a simple cube shaped game, how the Hell did you manage to coerce him into a philosophical lecture. 

He was beyond bewildered, no he was shell shocked as you watched as some people walked by “Are…Are you saying life is good when it has no climax?” your head nodded slowly as you glanced in his direction “I think it can be. Stability is a form of peace. If you’re always chasing something dramatic, you miss the beauty in the in-between.”

He stares at you for like a full 15 seconds. Then, later that night, he locks himself in his studio and rewrites three chapters in Pink Dark Boy. From then on, he starts , but he always has a voice recorder nearby. He’ll never say it, but he values you because you remind him that meaning isn’t only found in grand ambition- it’s also in the small, quiet moments he never used to notice.  

Josuke:

Josuke’s a chill guy, a kind boy at heart, and honestly? He Loves listening to you talk about this stuff. He often indulges you even if he doesn’t always get all the deeper layers, he thinks it’s cool that you think that way.

You both were in a random store that just had opened up in town, each other following the other like shadows. Though you did stop suddenly, your eyes caught an array of plastic flowers. “Even fake things can be beautiful, right? They don’t wilt. They don’t die. There’s a strange comfort in those performances.”  

He stood next to you, staring at the false flowers then to you, his eyes softening as you examined the fake daisy “Man… that’s kinda deep. I never thought of it like that..” He mumbled as you placed the flower down and beamed at him about the array of chocolates they had.

He respects how you don’t talk down to anyone, you just speak from the heart. You could be sitting on a swing set at two O’clock in the morning with him, talking about whether humanity deserves a second chance, and he'd be like, “Damn. True.”

Josuke also starts seeing more beauty in everyday stuff after hanging out with you. Like fixing someone’s broken glasses or hearing a good song at the store. He starts sending you voice memos like, “Hey, I saw a dog sleeping in a sunbeam and it made me think of you. Not like you’re a dog, I mean—you know what I mean!!”

Narancia:

“Hey, you sound like something Fugo would read!” Narancia doesn’t get half the stuff you say—but he thinks you’re awesome and mysterious and, like, maybe kind of a genius? He often links you and Fugo in the same group, but of course you’re much nicer than him.

You and him sat on the couch together as he followed the instructions that the DSi displayed for the game, from prepping the rice to cooking it to perfection. It was peaceful as you leaned away from his frantic movements “All life is, really, is a series of tasks. But if you’re doing them with love, even repetitive things can become sacred.”

The black-haired boy paused briefly as the rice began to burn “WHOA. Wait. Waitwaitwait. Are you saying delivering pizza is like… destiny?” You snorted a bit at his response before shaking your head lightly “I’m saying we make our own destiny. With sauce and crust and maybe pineapple, if you’re into that.”

He fist-pumps so hard he knocks over a soda, earning a lecture from Bruno. He’ll bring up stuff you’ve said out of nowhere weeks later, like “You remember when you said time is an illusion and the only real moment is now? I was thinking about that during math with Fugo and forgot what year it was.”

Narancia feels a kind of peace when he’s with you. You don't make him feel dumb for not understanding—you just gently blow his mind, one rice cooking metaphor at a time. You make him feel smart just by thinking deeply.

Kakyoin:

Oh, he lives for this. You’re speaking his language. Kakyoin is the kind of person who writes essays in his diary about the color of the sky and what it says about human longing. So when you start talking about finding happiness in repetition, or the difference between fulfillment and success?

He looks at you like you just quoted Sartre and baked him a pie at the same time. You both could be in the midst of a stand battle and begin talking about your views and opinions, often getting lectured by Avdol and Joseph for being too distracted.

“I think success is overrated. Everyone’s chasing something abstract. But I’d rather chase contentment, even if it’s quiet and unnoticed.” you said calmly as your group began settling for the night, the fire roaring in a soft glow as Kakyoin laid next to you “That’s… beautiful. And dangerous. Because the world doesn’t reward that. But maybe it should.”

You two can have entire hour-long conversations without breaking eye contact, each calmly bouncing ideas off the other like two poets at a diner. He finds your view of the world healing—especially because you remind him that it’s okay to just be. That meaning doesn’t have to be defined by battle, legacy, or struggle.

"I know why you want to return to our world, Meggie! You just miss your boyfriend! But we haven't seen everything of this beautiful world yet!" Mr Mortimer sir your wife was enslaved for working as a scribe disguised as a man. In this world women are punished for learning their fathers' craft and your thirteen years old daughter would be already married if she was born in this world. I know the books are very pretty but Mo your wife is pregnant. I don't think they have c-sections here :(

My doctor messaging me at 12:30 in the morning to tell me she wants to do a telehealth visit abt the side effects I'm having with my new Lamotrigine dose (including worse insomnia than my usual insomnia, as u may have guessed lmao) is. something.

[croquetserasera]

fwiw I do think a lot of the problem is also the understanding - implicit or direct - that failure is not an option. it is crucial to not be punished for trying and failing for trying to be worth the risk

Something I don't think we talk enough about in discussions surrounding AI is the loss of perseverance.

I have a friend who works in education and he told me about how he was working with a small group of HS students to develop a new school sports chant. This was a very daunting task for the group, in large part because many had learning disabilities related to reading and writing, so coming up with a catchy, hard-hitting, probably rhyming, poetry-esque piece of collaborative writing felt like something outside of their skill range. But it wasn't! I knew that, he knew that, and he worked damn hard to convince the kids of that too. Even if the end result was terrible (by someone else's standards), we knew they had it in them to complete the piece and feel super proud of their creation.

Fast-forward a few days and he reports back that yes they have a chant now... but it's 99% AI. It was made by Chat-GPT. Once the kids realized they could just ask the bot to do the hard thing for them - and do it "better" than they (supposedly) ever could - that's the only route they were willing to take. It was either use Chat-GPT or don't do it at all. And I was just so devastated to hear this because Jesus Christ, struggling is important. Of course most 14-18 year olds aren't going to see the merit of that, let alone understand why that process (attempting something new and challenging) is more valuable than the end result (a "good" chant), but as adults we all have a responsibility to coach them through that messy process. Except that's become damn near impossible with an Instantly Do The Thing app in everyone's pocket. Yes, AI is fucking awful because of plagiarism and misinformation and the environmental impact, but it's also keeping people - particularly young people - from developing perseverance. It's not just important that you learn to write your own stuff because of intellectual agency, but because writing is hard and it's crucial that you learn how to persevere through doing hard things.

Write a shitty poem. Write an essay where half the textual 'evidence' doesn't track. Write an awkward as fuck email with an equally embarrassing typo. Every time you do you're not just developing that particular skill, you're also learning that you did something badly and the world didn't end. You can get through things! You can get through challenging things! Not everything in life has to be perfect but you know what? You'll only improve at the challenging stuff if you do a whole lot of it badly first. The ability to say, "I didn't think I could do that but I did it anyway. It's not great, but I did it," is SO IMPORTANT for developing confidence across the board, not just in these specific tasks.

Idk I'm just really worried about kids having to grow up in a world where (for a variety of reasons beyond just AI) they're not given the chance to struggle through new and challenging things like we used to.

Urgent appeal to those with merciful hearts.🚨 I hope you will help me save my child from his serious illness, which may lead to the worst if we do not address the bad situation that he and my husband are going through, who is injured in this war.

I am Najah Al-Hila, married to Khaled Muqdad from Gaza City. I am a mother of four young children. My family consists of Waleed, 9 years old, Mira, 6 years old, Ahmed, and Mayar, 3 years old.

Ahmed suffered from head cramps and increased electricity after his birth. He was given medication and had blood tests done every two months to make sure his health was stable. He suffered from these cramps in 2021. My husband also suffered from liver and digestive system problems five years ago and is still suffering from these problems. Over time, my husband was injured during the war, which made things worse for him. We thank God for everything. Because of the instability and unavailability of the medication, we face difficulties in buying medications due to their high prices. Now life has become very difficult and the prices of medications have increased due to their scarcity. Things have become more difficult due to the lack of money and his expensive treatment, which has led to its unavailability due to money. I hope that all donors and supporters will not forget Ahmed and his father Khaled in alleviating their pain by providing the costs of his treatment and buying him the appropriate medicine and food. We also do not forget his brothers from the malnutrition they suffered from during this difficult period.

Please everyone pay attention, I have been away from you for a while due to my health condition. I hope this situation is taken seriously. My husband and children's lives are in grave danger, I hope you do not suffer what he suffered. May your children and loved ones be safe and sound. I hope you help in their treatment and that their condition, which has worsened over time, stabilizes. Save Khaled and Ahmed from this disease that has afflicted them, please. Help us.

Note: My husband Khaled was working as a teacher before the war and obtained a teaching certificate from Al-Aqsa University and became an Arabic language teacher, but he was not lucky enough to find a job, so he became a worker due to the poor economic situation we are going through. At the end of my talk, he became injured and unable to work in this current situation. I hope you do not forget this and take it into consideration that there is a mother who seeks to preserve her husband and children by fighting for them. Your support is a support for me in these critical moments that we are living in and we may not live due to the repeated attacks by the occupation and the failure to reach an agreement to end the war.

We are now living in dilapidated tents, my child and husband are suffering.

We can no longer provide the necessities of life. My family's future is completely destroyed. I can no longer live in Gaza. I want to leave the Strip and treat my child and husband, so I need $5,000 per person.

I hope that everyone who watches my story will help me.

To get out of Gaza and find treatment and a better life for my children and family.

I am asking for help, and I hope that you will help me and donate to me.

To save my life from death.

I hope that you will donate even $25-50, it would be wonderful.

This will save my child's life. My husband's life. Donate to help Ahmed and his father evacuate Gaza.

[orcelito]

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I didn't switch out of engineering after my freshman year of college. I could've been a computer & electrical engineer.

Or if I'd pursued my middle school interest in architecture (that I still lowkey have). I used to draw floor plans just for the fun of it. I think it might've originated from building in the sims, bc I recently did a massive build in the sims 2 after years and years without playing, and I was having the time of my Life. I ended up deciding to pursue engineering in high school tho bc there's a family history to it (my grandpa was one, my sister is one, my dad studied it before dropping out of college, & my ex step grandpa was one too). Also it pays better lol.

But what if I didn't give it up? I could've been an architect. Just the other day I found out from European friends that their buildings don't tend to have ventilation systems built into the walls & I went on a whole nerd research binge learning about how European buildings have air circulation (it generally varies by region, colder climates often having ventilation systems while warmer climates often just get air circulation from windows). Yeah, the architecture interest is still there.

If I go Real far back, little me wanted to be a nurse lol. But that was just because my mom was one and I still looked up to her. I've long since accepted I wouldn't be able to make it as a nurse (I'm too squeamish + tend to get attached easily, so i think it'd be pretty soul crushing for me to work in a job where patients do die sometimes)

Idk. I'm close to finishing my degree in IT, so my general life path is pretty set. And it just has me wondering about the different jobs I've wanted throughout my life & what things would be like if I went to that instead.
