was talking to my therapist today about how, assuming i learn to drive successfully and pass my road test, i'll be buying a car eventually and i was like "i've never imagined myself actually doing that. it feels like everyone else is allowed to do something like buy a car but i'm not" and then she asked if -- now that i was seriously considering it -- i had a better idea of what car i might want. i didn't give her an answer bc unfortunately this is what kept coming to mind
Tumblr media

At the end of the day the average civilian wishes to be catered to like an old money steel baron or perhaps one of those chaps from Downton Abbey. The entirety of modern society has come together to enable this, mass-producing cheap facsimiles of fortunes that should rightly either be built on child labor or perhaps serfdom.
Their lawns, taking up what could otherwise be used to grow crops or serve as "outdoor garage space," exist to ape the wide ranging estates meant for the nobility to chase down a fox while adorned in silly jackets. Their houses sport columns and stupid windows meant to imitate three different classical artforms at the same time because of something called "economies of scale." They even have male-centric social clubs meant for parlour games, discussing sports, and dining with friends, in this case franchised out under such names as "Buffalo Wild Wings."
This aping of the upper class continues to the hire of "artisans" to do relatively simple work deemed too complicated to warrant the time of the average citizen. It's not that the jobs are too taxing for your average person, but rather that the market has crystallized around the desire to live like budget royalty. Therefore they take their wafer-thin computers to artisans (now more commonly called "experts" or "Apple geniuses") for repair and have democratized the position of carriagemen to 22 year old dealership lube techs named Ryan who will turn a 15 minute job into a 30 minute endeavor thanks to frequent vape breaks and a brief brush with what the industry refers to as "a misplaced drain bolt."
The mid-40s project manager and mother of 3 is no less competent when changing oil than her grandfather before her who knew what "Valve Lash" is, but what separates the two is a series of wars in the 1900s that required an entire generation of men to become very familiar with operating and repairing machines better than the Germans and Japanese (an exercise that Chrysler would later abandon in favor of the phrase "if you can't beat em, join em").
This conflict ended with a surge of able-bodied men finding themselves returning to their project management jobs (like their granddaughters after them) but armed with captured German weapons and a comprehensive understanding of tubochargers. Just as a line can be drawn from troop drawdowns to political violence, there's a distinct correlations between GIs returning home and the violence with which Ford Flathead V8s were torn apart by inventive supercharging methods paired with landspeed record attempts.
Give a man a racecar and he'll crash it on the salt flats in a day. Teach a man to repair a racecar and it will sit in the garage of his suburban house for a few years in between complete engine rebuilds required by what can only be described as "vaporized piston rods."
Of course this hotrodder generation created the circumstances we live in today, as the market saw their fast cars cobbled together from old prewar hulks and simply stamped out new ones from factory, faster and more convenient for the next generation than building one from scratch. Now the project manager mother of 3 drives a 4wd barge with climate controlled seats boasting more computing power than the moon mission and an emissions-controlled powertrain with more horsepower than her grandfather's jalopy and her fathers factory muscle car combined. And she doesn't care at all.
Yet Amongst the average civilians there walks a rare breed: people who know how to change their own oil. We the chosen move among you silently, bucking the system, operating outside the cultural helplessness and trading in forbidden knowledge in almost-abandoned forum threads (flame wars over conventional vs synthetic).
While we do have a marked air of superiority about this, I can't say I haven't stooped to imitating the rich myself. I've been known to wear a silly jacket from time to time.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had to move my OB appointment from next week to tomorrow because I had scary high blood pressure at the rhumatologist today. So I have been feeling pretty stressed out this evening and it's very hard for me to tell if I feel sick because of stress or if something is wrong.
I had an alright day though. I would have bursts of energy and things would be okay for a lot of the morning. I slept a little better last night I guess. Though I did wake up after I had a pretty intense nightmare. And then I pulled a muscle in my side that was incredibly painful. It wasn't the worst sleep but it was not the best I've had.
When I woke up I texted James to see if they had left for the oil change appointment yet. They hadn't, so they came up to give me a hug before they headed out.
I feel really bad about this because the appointment was at 930 but they wouldn't get home until 2! It's insane that this happens every time. And we discovered today that we had to pay for the oil change?? The only reason we keep going to the dealership is because it had been free with our warranty. I guess we will find a new place going forward.
While James was gone I was trying my best to be productive. I would finish my floor mat project. Which may fit in the baby basket? Unsure about it in there be ause it's all folded on the sides but that doesn't mean there isn't a way for it to work. And I would had an apple and peanut butter for breakfast. I would lay out my larger puff quilt and start to add the stuffing. But I would only get a dozen stuffed before I started feeling to tired and had to come back upstairs.
I took a short break before putting together a mini hospital bag. Just in case stuff. Lotion, deodorant, Vaseline, chapstick. Underwear. Leggings. Socks. Sweatshirt. Charger. Nothing crazy but just things that I think would help me feel comfortable if I had to go to the hospital sooner then planned. Especially with how bad I've been feeling.
I would lay down for an hour. Just watching nonsense. I realized that my phone has been staying on my data and not switching to WiFi so I used so much that they had put me in a slow down until the end of the month. Super obnoxious that this happened. I would manually turn it off and was just a bit annoyed with myself for not being more careful.
I really wanted string cheese and was excited when James let me know that we had a brand new package in the fridge. I had two of those and some leftover stuffing for lunch. And that would give me another bit of energy to finish stuffing all of the squares of the puff quilt. I still need 4 more squares of the white yarn but 9 of the 10 rows are ready to be sewn together. I want to be able to work on that during our long drive this weekend so I would safety pin all of those squares together. I did three sets of three rows for manageability. I was very happy with this.
I came upstairs and decided to mix two of my new Burt's bees chapsticks together. I have a vanilla and a peppermint and now I have two vanilla peppermints and it's perfect. I used to do this all the time and it's just such a nice mild mix. I don't know why they don't just make it.
I cleaned that up and was hanging out waiting for James to come home. They got back here right after 2 and we basically just got back in the car and we were off for my appointment.
James would grocery shop while I was in the doctor's. The ride there kind of sucked. Bad traffic and bad drivers. But we got there and things were fine.
I am hoping I was just a bit stressed. Between the drive and the sort of uncomfortable conversation I had to have with the medical assistant (she was the one I had last time that made me bleed really bad), my blood pressure was very high. Worryingly high. She said I should call my OB. So while she went to mix my meds I would shoot them a message. About the blood pressure, the vomiting, the broken capillaries, the headaches. And within an hour they were calling me to move my appointment up. I missed the call but the voicemail seemed very concerned. The office was closed and I couldn't figure out how to get through the prompts so I sent a second message and was able to navigate moving my appointment and now it's tomorrow at 2.
And honestly since then I have been feeling really stressed and vaguely nauseous. The car ride home was not good for me. I felt sick and I think it was more I was upset. When we got back here I just wanted to lay down. I laid on James for a while, which isn't something I often do but I just really needed them. They kissed the top of my head a bunch and tried very hard to make me feel comfortable ans comforted. And it helped. Even if my belly hurts still and I had pains in my legs.
I would lay upside down with my legs on the wall and that helped. James made dinner. They didn't make my quesadilla how I wanted and I never ask them to remake stuff but I had to this time and they didn't make me feel bad but I did feel bad. I really enjoyed my second try quesadilla and I lovey husband for taking care of me.
After dinner I went in the studio to cut the yarn for September's rectangle for the temperature blanket. I had some cereal. I accidently lost the end of my yarn and James tried to help me untangle it and eventually I was able to sort it out. Glad to have that ready to go.
I hung out with James in the living room for a while. My sinuses started bugging me and I was having to turn from side to side to breathe properly. Icky.
I took a shower and it helped but it wasn't a very nice shower. The water took forever to get warm and I was just grinding my teeth to get through it. I am cozy in bed now though.
While I was in the shower I had a revelation about where I may have thought up our baby's name. It's a character from one of my favorite fictional podcasts. I don't know why it just popped into my head but it made me laugh out loud. It doesn't make me want to not use the name but man it surprises me when one of the lines from the show ran through my head with the name in it. I had to call James upstairs to tell them. They thought it was pretty funny too.
I am not feeling as bad anymore. Like I am still not comfortable. But I'm not hurting in a scary way anymore. I am just ready to sleep.
Tomorrow I'm going to camp to set up my NAFT program for Wednesday but then I'll probably just go straight to my appointment. We'll see how the day works out. I don't want to push myself to hard with how I've been feeling. It's just so I'm hard to make those calls.
I hope you are all having a good night. I hope you sleep well. Goodnight everyone. Until tomorrow.

hey i need to know what cars austin hanna's children canonically drive. thank's.
yayyyyy i love assigning cars to muses ^_^ i'm not as good at these sort of lists as u but i'm gonna try hard and really believe in myself and you're gonna smile and nod at all of it because what;s the alternative? to challenge me and look like a total bitch? exactly.
cora i want to say drives something like a 2017 kia forte, in the dark reddish maroon color. she bought it second hand after crashing her former and first car, an older pontiac sunfire. it was also secondhand and shitty, but she insisted on saving and spending all on her own. she could've had something better, but unfortunately has a brain disease that makes her repel her loving and helpful parents.
ezra strikes me as a station wagon guy. i think he could have wanted to make it happen on his own, in which case i see him in something like a 2000s subaru outback in the green color. austin clapped him on the shoulder for that one. if you see him in something more modern, i'm thinking a white 2019 tiguan.
zoe is a jeep renegade girlie, in graphite grey (i think? i toyed with black and white and the blue color). i'm thinking something more generic like the grey because she's for sure leasing it on her teacher's salary. maybe leasing to buy, but definitely leasing. she's the sort of girl that has decorative coasters in her cup holders and some macrame something orother hanging from her rearview. she's got a sparkly bath and body works fragrance holder on her driver's side visor and she's always got a fresh warm vanilla sugar insert on deck
maisyn drives a 2009 ford focus, in the blue/grey sort of color. there's a taco bell 5-layer burrito stain on the upholstery, right where she dropped in between her legs eating one-handed on the road. she's got a fat stack of CDs that are always spilling out of her center console, the cases of many having cracks in the plastic for being stepped on in her passenger seat. when people get in her car, she has to get out and remove the canvas totes and birkenstocks tossed into and never removed from her back seat along with the week-old dunkin' bag she was using to collect trash like napkins and straw rappers. she does this outside of people's houses, btw. doesn't prepare in advance.
ayla drives a mercedes gle coupe, in maybe a white or a red depending on how bougie we see her. this is all based off of you saying she appreciates the name brand and sensuality of a dove bar. we've never discussed her but i love your characterization. she's the kim kardashian of this family; she's hot and she's got main character syndrome. you know she feels hot as hell driving around in her little black slit sunglasses. she's got an off-white flower hair clip clapsed to her passenger side mirror, whole car smells like expensive perfume and her marc jacobs tote bag is perpetually riding shotgun. she uses apple carplay to stream music and be alerted to new text messages, which she replies to by manually texting and driving. fortunately, she's got decently quick reflexes (years of practice?) so she hasn't yet rear-ended anyone doing so, but she's definitely had a few close calls.
rylan oh you know he drives a hybrid of some sort (again based on waht you said about him and ice cream) and won't let anyone forget it. maybe a 2017-ish toyota prius prime. austin went with him to help pick it out; talked a big game about helping him navigate the dealership, but ultimately ended up folding to an outrageous offer too soon. fortunately, rylan walked in there with a plan and was able to negotiate for himself. austin was so proud, and when he recounted the story to camryn later, he claimed it was his plan all along to see how the kid did for himself.
orla is a only a baby, so jot that down. maybe she's a late bloomer or maybe she's failing to launch, but i do think she's indulged by camryn and austin a little. they're adamant they're not enabling her, because she has had stuff going on and benefits from the healthy, cozy environment in the hanna home. she doesn't have a car of her own, but borrows her parents' when she needs to get around. she's scratched up the honda pilot in the past, so her privileges have officially been revoked per austin. i think they're a two-car household and i could see camryn with something cute and sleek like maybe a black mazda 3, especially as the kids are older and she needs to transport less. that one is much easier for orla to navigate in.

50 Best USA Local Citation Sites for SEO & Free Listings 2025
Tumblr media
Getting your business listed on USA local citation sites is key to ranking higher in local searches.
A strong citation profile helps search engines trust your business, making it easier for customers to find you online. Without the right citations, even the best SEO efforts may fall short.
A recent study revealed that 95% of customers read online reviews before making a purchase, highlighting the importance of a positive online presence. 
In this article, you'll discover the top 50 USA local citation sites for SEO and free listings in 2025. 
We'll guide you on how to submit your business to these platforms, discuss the benefits of free and paid citation services, highlight common mistakes to avoid, and introduce tools to manage and monitor your citations effectively.​
By the end, you'll be equipped with the knowledge to enhance your local search rankings and attract more customers. 
So, let's dive in and explore how you can leverage these citation sites to boost your business's online presence.
What Are Local Citations & Why Do They Matter?
Tumblr media
Local citations are online mentions of your business name, address, and phone number (NAP). They appear on directories, social media, and industry websites. Google uses them to verify your business and boost local search rankings.
If your NAP is consistent, search engines trust your business more. If it’s inconsistent, rankings can drop. A Moz study found that local citations impact 7% of local search ranking factors.
Citations also help customers find and trust you. Being listed on high-authority sites increases visibility and credibility. In the next section, we’ll explore the best citation sites for SEO success.
Top 50 USA Local Citation Sites for 2025
Getting listed on the right local citation sites is key to boosting your local SEO and online visibility. 
Below is a list of 50 high-authority USA citation sites that will help your business rank higher in search results.
1. Must-Have General Citation Sites
These are the most trusted directories that every business should be listed on.
Google My Business – The most important citation for local SEO.
Bing Places – Helps you appear in Bing’s local search results.
Apple Maps – Essential for iPhone and Siri searches.
Facebook Business – Boosts social proof and local visibility.

Yellow Pages – A long-established business directory.
Foursquare – Provides location data for other platforms.

MapQuest – Helps customers find your business location.
2. Niche-Specific Citation Sites

Manta – Helps small businesses improve their local presence.

Alignable
Bizapedia
Insider Pages
These 50 USA local citation sites will increase your business’s visibility, improve SEO rankings, and help attract local customers. 
Up next, we’ll explain how to submit your business to these platforms and avoid common citation mistakes.
Criteria for Choosing the Best Citation Sites
Tumblr media
Not all citation sites are worth your time. Some boost rankings, while others are low-quality spam that hurts SEO. Here’s how to choose the best ones.
1. High Domain Authority (DA 50+)
Search engines trust high-authority sites more. Listings on directories with DA 50+ send strong SEO signals and improve rankings. Avoid low-DA sites with little traffic, as they offer no real SEO value.
2. Trusted by Google
Google values accurate and reliable citations. Choose sites that appear in search results, have HTTPS security, and are widely used by businesses. Avoid directories filled with outdated listings or spammy links.
3. Free vs. Paid Listings: What’s Worth Paying For?
Many directories offer free listings, but some charge for extra features like do-follow links, analytics, and priority placement. Paid listings can be useful for competitive industries, but most businesses can get results with free citations.
4. Niche & Geo-Specific Sites
General directories help, but industry-specific and location-based directories are even better. A lawyer listed on Avvo or Justia gains more trust than one on a generic site. A restaurant on TripAdvisor or Yelp gets more relevant traffic than one on a general directory.
How to Submit Your Business to These Citation Sites
Tumblr media
Submitting your business to local citation sites isn’t just about adding your name. Accuracy and consistency matter. Follow these steps to ensure your listings help your SEO, not hurt it.
Step 1: Prepare Accurate NAP Details (Name, Address, Phone)
Your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) must be 100% consistent across all listings. Even small differences—like "Street" vs. "St."—can confuse search engines and lower your rankings. Double-check your details before submitting.
Step 2: Write a Unique Business Description (For SEO Value)
Most citation sites let you add a business description. Avoid using the same description everywhere—Google prefers unique content. Include relevant keywords naturally, but don’t overstuff them.
Step 3: Upload High-Quality Images
Google and other platforms prioritize listings with images. Upload clear, high-resolution photos of your storefront, logo, and products/services. Profiles with images get 35% more clicks than those without.
Step 4: Monitor Duplicate Listings and Request Removal
Duplicate listings hurt SEO and confuse customers. Search for existing listings before creating a new one. If you find duplicates, contact the directory’s support team to merge or remove them.
Step 5: Use Local Citation Audit Tools or a Professional Service
Managing multiple citations manually can be time-consuming. Tools like Moz Local and BrightLocal help track and update listings, but some businesses prefer an expert-managed approach. 
If you want high-quality, accurate citations without the hassle, a service like USA Local Citation Building Service can handle the process for you, ensuring consistent submissions across trusted directories.
Free vs. Paid Local Citations: What’s Worth It?
Tumblr media
Not all businesses need to pay for local citations. Free listings work well for most, but in some cases, paid services save time and offer extra benefits. 
Here’s when to go free and when paying makes sense.
When Free Listings Are Enough
For many small businesses, free citation sites provide all the SEO value they need. Google My Business, Yelp, Bing Places, and Facebook are all free and highly trusted by search engines. 
Many industry-specific directories also offer free basic listings that boost credibility. If you have the time to manually submit and manage citations, free listings are enough.
When Paid Citation Services Make Sense
Paid services like Loganix, BrightLocal, and Yext become valuable when:
You don’t have time to manually submit your business to dozens of sites.
You need bulk citation updates across multiple platforms.
You want premium placement (some directories prioritize paid listings in search results).
You’re in a highly competitive industry, where every SEO advantage matters.
Pros & Cons of Manual vs. Automated Citation Building
Pros:
Manual Citations: Free, fully controlled, better for accuracy Automated Citations: Fast, scalable, ensures consistency
Cons:
Manual Citations: Time-consuming, requires constant monitoring Automated Citations: Can create duplicate listings, may rely on lower-quality sites
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Building Local Citations
Tumblr media
1. Inconsistent NAP Information: Even small differences in your Name, Address, or Phone (NAP) can hurt rankings. Always keep details 100% consistent across all listings.
2. Duplicate Listings: Having multiple listings for the same business confuses Google and can lower your rankings. Claim and remove duplicates to keep your citations clean.
3. Not Updating Citations: If your business moves, change names, or updates contact details, your listings must be updated. Outdated citations mislead customers and hurt trust.
4. Using Low-Quality Directories: Not all citation sites help SEO. Avoid spammy, low-authority directories, as they can do more harm than good. Stick to trusted, high-DA sites.
Next, we’ll cover tools to track and manage citations efficiently.
Final Thoughts
Local citations are a powerful tool for improving your business’s visibility and search rankings. The sooner you start, the faster you’ll see results. Don’t wait—claim your listings today!
To make things easier, download our free citation checklist to track your submissions and ensure your NAP details stay consistent.
If you prefer a hands-free approach, consider using professional citation services like BrightLocal or Loganix. They handle submissions, updates, and audits so you can focus on growing your business.

Why Ignoring Digital Maturity Will Cost You Market Share (Even If Your Quality Is Better)
Tumblr media
Have you ever thought cutting back on digital and marketing investments might save you money? You’re not alone. Recently, my business partner, Warwick, spoke with a business owner who was feeling the pressure of tight budgets, unpredictable work volume, and increased competition from lower-quality providers. His instinct was to cut back on what he thought were non-essential expenses—including digital strategies.
But here's the catch: Digital maturity is not a luxury anymore; it’s essential.
In today’s market, having the best product doesn’t guarantee you’ll come out on top. And let’s face it, being ‘better’ won’t always cut through the noise. You need digital maturity to truly thrive. 📊 Want to level up your business strategy? Check out these digital resolutions for 2025.
1. Competitive Differentiation: Why Being "Better" Isn’t Enough
Think your superior product will automatically win you market share? Think again.
Example: Betamax vs. VHS. Sony’s Betamax had better picture quality, yet VHS dominated the market because JVC nailed their business strategy. They marketed better, made their product more accessible, and offered better pricing. It’s not just what you sell, it’s how you sell it.
In the same way, businesses without a strong digital presence will lose out, no matter how great their product.
Check out more on future-proofing your business to avoid making the same mistake.
2. Your Online Presence Is Your First Impression
Think of your website as your storefront. What’s it saying about you?
❌ Is it outdated? ❌ Slow and clunky? ❌ No recent engagement?
If it is, you’re probably losing customers before they even know about your product.
Look at Apple vs. Microsoft in the early 2000s. Apple invested in their digital presence and transformed their image. They didn’t just sell computers—they sold an experience.
“People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it.” – Simon Sinek
3. Quality Alone Doesn’t Win
It’s easy to think that if you focus on quality, customers will find you. But how will they even know you exist?
SEO and search rankings are key.
Social media engagement builds trust faster.
Email marketing nurtures long-term relationships.
Tesla vs. Traditional Car Brands is a perfect example. Tesla didn’t just sell cars—they sold an idea. They used digital to create demand, bypassing traditional dealerships and getting their cars straight to customers.
4. Stagnation Leaves You Vulnerable to More Agile Competitors
If you’re not adapting digitally, your competitors are lapping you. Digital-first businesses:
Automate customer service.
Use data to refine strategies.
Dominate search results.
Don’t let your business be like Blockbuster—by the time they realised they were behind, Netflix had already stolen the show.
Want to get started on strengthening your digital strategy? Check out this resource.
5. Digital Adaptation is No Longer Optional
Digital transformation isn’t just about marketing. It impacts every part of your business:
Automate repetitive tasks.
Make customer interactions seamless.
Scale without raising costs.
Final Thought: Digital Maturity Is the Game-Changer You Need
Thinking about pulling back on your digital investment? Now's the time to double down, not retreat. Digital maturity is the investment that will secure your business’ future and keep your competitors at bay.
“Your digital presence is your credibility, your reach, and your customers’ first experience with your brand.” – Dovetail Digital
If you want to stay ahead and secure your market share, it’s time to embrace digital maturity. Get in touch to learn how we can help you adapt, grow, and lead in the digital era. Don't wait to be left behind!

Refurbished electronics can be a great way for you to save money and make the most of your technology investments. Refurbishment is the process by which products are sent back to the original manufacturer, repaired, tested for defects, and sold at a discounted price. Refurbished products are most often electronics: laptops, cell phones, televisions, and computers among them. However, there are a few things to keep in mind as you search for refurbished products.For starters, there is a major difference between refurbished technology and used technology. Refurbished products have been properly tested, safely vetted against possible defects, and you can purchase them lower than retail value. Although they are technically “used,” they’ve undergone a thorough inspection process that puts them into a separate category.Used Vs. RefurbishedWhile you can certainly purchase the same brand or similar brands as “used” via online marketplaces like eBay and Craigslist, there are some major differences. Used products should be purchased with caution, as they may have possible defects that the buyer isn’t aware of. For example, you might purchase a used iPhone that appears to be in working condition, but doesn’t last long because of water damage to the motherboard, which is naked to the untrained eye.It’s fair to think of refurbished products in the same way you’d think of the used car market. Reputable dealerships can sell quality used cars, which are tested before they’re put out of the floor for potential buyers to see. Just because these cars aren’t coming directly from the assembly line and aren’t fresh on the market doesn’t mean they aren’t in great working condition.Different Types of RefurbishmentManufacturer refurbishment refers to products that are inspected and re-sold by the manufacturer, and typically follow stringent guidelines for re-selling. As the actual manufacturer of the device, there’s often no better company to test its effectiveness and usability. They understand the product better than anyone else and uphold a high standard level to maintain their brand’s reputation. Third party refurbishing refers to products refurbished by a company other than the manufacturer. Of course, there are pros and cons to choosing a third party refurbishment service over one offered directly by the manufacturer. For starters, in many cases, a third party seller will sell a product cheaper than the manufacturer. Furthermore, some manufacturers--like Apple--will only refurbish their latest models. Because of this, if you had a tight budget and wanted to purchase an earlier version of a MacBook Pro, you wouldn’t be able to get a verified Apple-refurbished item. On the other hand, guidelines for refurbishment may not always be as strong as those used by manufacturers. Warranty, though not always offered with refurbished products, tend to come with manufacturer refurbished items. However, on some sites like eBay, warranty is offered through third-party insurance companies like SquareTrade. As a safety precaution, always be sure to read the fine print for available tech insurance policies. Seller refurbished is another category, and is the riskiest of all. Seller refurbished products refer to items refurbished by the individual seller themselves. The reason this is so risky is that there’s no verifiable way for consumers to gauge the quality of their services or replacement parts. Certainly, some independent refurbishers are good at what they do, but because they aren’t certified, it’s often a gamble the buyer takes. It’s critical that you work with official refurbished companies—especially if you plan to use your refurbished tech for business. For example, if you’re on a lean startup budget, you’ll need to ensure the electronics you’re bringing on board are completely wiped and free of malware. In addition to choosing reputable sellers, you should work with a secure data storage and colocation company to protect the integrity of your personal and professional data.
Thanks to retail giant Amazon, vendors have also been added to the equation. Vendors are sellers on Amazon who ship independently of the company. Back in 2016, Amazon launched a program called “Certified Refurbished,” which qualified certain vendors to sell refurbished products with a stamp of approval. The system was put in place to help restore confidence in buyers who are purchasing “used” goods. The criteria for passing as a “Certified Refurbished” vendor are strict. According to Amazon, “only select marketplace sellers and vendors who maintain a high quality and performance bar may offer Certified Refurbished products.”Where do Refurbished Products Come From?As previously mentioned, refurbished products are returned to the manufacturer, but these returns can happen from many different places. In many cases, they’re returned from the user. They could also be refurbished if the products were used in demonstrations, sales displays, and field tests, or products that were sent back to the manufacturer because the box or item was damaged during shipping. Sometimes, they also come from businesses who have downsized and returned some of their items.

I wouldn't not get one because of what other people thought, I'd not get one because it's unreliable. Here's my practical argument for not getting one that has nothing to do with hating elon musk or thinking electric cars are gay.
They break down and catch fire for no reason and in cases i've seen of that happening the owners got little to no help.
They freeze in the winter, people had to sleep in the freezing cold in their cars on the side of the highway because their batteries froze in gridlock on the highway in the middle of the night.
They are tracked and monitored more easily because it's essentially like driving an ipad you can sit in.
blackouts/grid failures or government mandated energy rationing would mean you can't drive.
Apparently they can even remotely control teslas and have used this for repossessing cars.
Also because they run silent you're more likely to hit pedestrians who can't hear you coming.
And depending on where you live you will either have very limited access to charging or long lines/waits for charging access.
I'd also look into typical repair costs and inquire what typically goes wrong with them mechanically. Because I'd be suspicious of a prohibitive repair costs scheme in the manner that apple tries to make you buy a new device every couple years. Like i'd want to know if the battery goes will you A.) be able to find a place that can repair it...most mechanics work on regular cars so would that make you beholden to the dealership/tesla for all repairs and B.) will the replacement parts be so expensive that they tell you you're better off buying a new vehicle. rmemeber the only reason they are affordable at all is because of subsidies that tesla gets, I doub't the consumer is getting the same benefit if they need to buy parts.
would you all hate me if i got a tesla, they are not expensive and i test drove one last week and they really work... and i live in a very confusing and congested geographic area for driving and am not an experienced driver so i think it's one of the safest options for a first car...

come out, come out wherever you are
in which y/n agrees to do something really stupid, and harry is a bit of a shit
word count: 5k
pairing: vampire!h and y/n (different au from my other vamp!h fics, though)
warnings: drug use, mentions of drinking and alcohol, mentions of blood (duh, he’s a vampire). 
author’s note: okay so i know that i put vampire!h in the pairing, but this h is a wierd succubus x demon x vampire mix where he can feed off the emotions he wants to?? i’ll explain it in the story. enjoy your reading :)
She shouldn’t have agreed to play hide and seek in a cornfield.
At night.
During a full moon. 
On Halloween.
Y/n’s logic always disappeared when she was… under the influence. Whether that be with alcohol or other sorts of… fun substances. That was not to say that she was an alcoholic, or a drug addict, she just… hated to be a party popper. When her roommate invited her to college parties, she didn’t say no to the red solo cup because she knew that some way or another, she would end up giving in by the end of the night. Or when it was just her and her closest friends passing around  a freshly rolled joint, she didn’t say no because she didn’t want to be the odd one out.
Plus, it didn’t hurt that she enjoyed it… most of the time. 
This? This was not one of those times.
*    *    *    *   *   *   *   *   *   *   *
Josephine, her roommate, had barged into her room with a smile over her lips as the brightness of her phone lit up her face from the bottom up, casting spooky shadows since y/n’s room was dark and she was falling asleep. 
“Y/n, look!” She said, turning the phone so beams that felt like they came from hell illuminated y/n’s pinched face, marks from her pillow decorating the place above her lip. She mumbled something, and Josephine kept speaking, “Travis just sent me an invitation to one of the frat’s Halloween parties! Come with me, it’s gonna be so much fun!”
And to get her to leave her room, she agreed. She must have, because the next morning as she was getting ready for her 10 a.m. literature class, she was bombarded with a series of costume ideas and questions about what was considered cheesy or overdone. Josephine had made it clear that it was okay that they didn’t match, especially because of their differences in clothing choices. Jo was more risqué, and y/n liked to dress in what she felt comfortable in. 
It didn’t take her a long time to figure out what she was going to go as for Halloween. That same morning, just before she walked into class, y/n stopped to stare at a framed art print in the hallway. 
La Belle Dame sans Merci by John Keats was a poem that she knew by heart, and the painting was one that she could get lost in for hours. Stopping to stare at it before walking into class was not an unusual occurrence for her, but that time an idea came to her, almost like it was written in the long locks of her red hair. 
Y/n would go as a Victorian princess. The dresses had always fascinated her, with the intricate lace details and elegant rippled of muslin fabric that flounced in a puff around the hips of Countess, or trailed behind the average cottage girl as she frolicked in fields full of daisies. She could picture it in her mind, and it made her giddy to know that there was a possibility she could look as pretty as one of the poet’s muses. She spent the entirety of the class switching from writing notes to browsing the five pages worth of gowns on Amazon, looking for something pretty yet within her price range. 
By the end of the period she’d had what she wanted in her cart. A baby-blue wisp of a dress with intricate lace detailing at the neckline that curved like the top-hald of a heart to cup her breasts. The sleeves bunched around her arms mid-bicep, and scrunched again around her wrists, the transparent fabric looking as if her arms were wrapped in the sky. Built in ribbing created a corset that added an extra curve to her waist to make way for the heaps of fabric that exploded from her hips and cascaded down to the floor like the foaming spray of a waterfall. 
It fit like a dream. When it arrived a few days before the party she dropped everything she was doing to try it on. The moment Josephine patted her shoulder to tell her that she was finished zipping up the back, y/n twirled around in the limited space of their dorm room to see herself in the narrow mirror at the end of her bed. 
Every penny she had spent on it was worth it. Sure, it was snug around the bust and refrained her lungs from expanding the extra millimeter they needed, but it made her feel… nice. Pretty. She liked the way it cinched her waist, how her wrists looked dainty covered in the lacy ends of the sleeves, and the way her breasts looked… accentuated by the frilly detail. 
Jo had squealed once she had a full look at her friend, and wouldn’t stop talking about how good they were going to look walking in together. She was going as Cat-Woman, complete with the latex suit, boots, mask, and all. She looked every bit as fantastic as y/n, only on opposite ends of the Halloween costume spectrum. 
Building up to the day of the party, the pair talked make-up and hair details, both of which Josephine would be taking care of because she was better at them. At one point, y/n thinks she even dreamt about making a grand-entrance, boys and girls gawking at how amazing she looked, and the most handsome guy stepping forth to profess his undying love for her. 
Which wasn't really how it went the night of, but she attained the same satisfaction. 
The party was located a little ways away from the city, at a plantation-style frat house in-front of a huge cornfield. Carved pumpkins with candles illuminating them from the inside out lined the pathway up to the front-doors, the trees nearby created crunchy pathways of orange and yellow leaves, and the moon was out; yawning tiredly, but glowing an eerie yellow color over the scene. 
It looked like the opening scene of a horror film. 
Y/n did receive a lot of stares, though. Most of them were from guys whose beady little eyes pointed straight to her chest, and the ones she got from girls were on the nastier side of envy. She could tell. But, oddly enough, she liked the attention. 
Josephine y/n’s hand and led her through the mass of costumed-bodies. There was a variety of ‘sexy’ professions (the usual: nurses, cops, cowgirls, and school girls) and those that come from fandoms (Hogwarts’s students, Eleven from Stranger Things, Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction, multiple heroes from the Avengers) or those that came for shits and giggles (T-rex blow-up costumes with tiny hands, Joe Exotic, sumo-wrestlers, those things that sway outside car-dealerships, and even a Trojan condom packet). There was a lot to see, and honestly, it was beginning to overwhelm y/n.
Not only was it slightly disorienting to see everyone disguised, the interior itself was something to look at. Chandeliers and velvet sofas, gold lamps and fancy carpets and curtains. The epitome of privilege. She felt trampled, every once a while there was a tug on the ends of her dress. 
“How about a shot to start off the night, y/n?” Josephine asked her, hooking a latex coated arm around hers. The music was a rumble on the backs of their heads, shaking them through and through as some nameless rapper sang of drugs, sex, and money. What it always came down to. 
She agreed, and took the plastic shot cup. On normal nights, she would’ve usually required some type of coaxing, but not then. Y/n was almost looking for the hangover the next morning. She wanted fun. 
Three shots later and her fingers were dragging in front of her face. Her knees were wobbly and cheeks tinged with spirits. Everything was funny and if you asked her what two plus two was she’d tell you five. There was a new swagger in her step, and some might say that was the influenced hand-eye coordination, but to her it was newfound confidence. She felt good, she looked good, and she was having a damn good time. Laughing, making the best conversation she’d ever made, and when Jo suggested they go dance, she danced the best she’d ever had.
And sure, she was drunk out of her mind. A light weight. Everything was under a glamourized rose filter. It only made sense that the crowd parted like the Red Sea at God’s feet. 
Y/n’s lungs stopped working the moment her eyes locked with his. 
He was her counterpart. Literally. 
Dressed in a navy blue Victorian prince’s suit decked in gold trim and gold medals pinned to the breast. The tan pants that hugged his muscular thighs like they were made just for him, and his hair was slicked back. Jaw a sharp, smug line that worked as he popped a piece of pink bubblegum between his molars. A gleam of appreciation sparking in the forest of his eyes as they raked a path on her figure.  
It was like the work around them stopped, put on pause by some higher power so they could relish the moment of their discovery. What was that shit called? Divine Intervention? The millisecond before and after and between the time Eve’s teeth sunk into the taught skin of that forbidden red apple, and the snake’s tongue slithered out to see her. He was a stranger to y/n, but it seemed as if the feeling he stirred deep in the core of her being was one she’d always known, one from a past life. Besides her, Jo stopped doing whatever lucrative dance she was doing to see what had caught her friend’s attention. Y/n stood, tongue dry, feet glued to the ground as the handsome stranger approached her, a clear path in front of him. 
Then, he takes one step  forward and whatever conversation he had been involved with before was no longer of importance. Besides her, Jo stopped doing whatever lucrative dance she was doing to see what had caught her friend’s attention. Y/n stood, tongue dry, feet glued to the ground as the handsome stranger approached her, a clear path in front of him. 
“Oh,” Jo huffed in her ear, “he’s hot.”
“I-Is he?...” Y/n’s question died on her tongue.
“Coming right for you, girl. Good luck,” Jo pressed a kiss to her cheek and disappeared in the crowd. 
The stranger stops closer than she would have thought him to; a finger away from her nose, and when he spoke, she could feel the vibrations of his speech through her breasts where they nearly grazed his chest. 
“I don’t believe we’ve ever met before... princess?” His voice is deep, raspy and filled with grooves like the bark on a tree. He mocks a bow (given their costumes) and their nose touch before he straightens again. Up close, y/n can see the flecks of gold in his eyes, and she hopes her mouth doesn’t stink (it probably does, given the alcohol she’d had). A chilled palm grips her bicep, and the fabric of her sleeve sinks under his touch, “Would you like to get off this shitty dance floor and speak somewhere else?” He asks her. 
Her heart is pounding and she wonders if he can hear it because she certainly can, rushing in a taunting, roaring stream past her eardrums. Y/n nodded her agreement; yes, she did want to speak with him. A thrum of warmth comes from where he holds her, and he tugs her so that she’s standing in front of him, her back touching his chest as he pushes her through the crowd. 
Her fingers shake as she lifts the fabric of her dress to avoid tripping, and her saliva goes thick. Not because of what might happen, but because the man who ripped her bicep tenderly, like she was made of the most fragile china, was the most good-looking man she had ever seen. Her mind ran images of things to compare him to, and almost all of them were of the Greek statues put up in museums for all to admire. 
He leads her past the crowd and the kitchen where everyone was making drinks, past the wrap around stairs on the inside of the house, and even past the calmer sitting areas where couples were making out or groups of friends passed a smoking joint. He leads her right through the open back doors of the house so they faced the seemingly endless cornfield and the barn that was a speck behind it. The deck was less populated than the couches where kids smoked weed, but y/n guessed that it wasn’t to his liking because instead of turning off to the side so they could have a much less strained… conversation, he continued to walk- this time standing beside her instead of behind her. 
Grass crunched under their feet as they got closer to the stalks of corn. Confused, y/n spared a glance to what she was leaving, and then to him. He stared straight ahead, but she caught his eyes flickering in her direction, and a smirk quirking cockily on his lips before they returned to the yawning face of the moon. 
There was a short wooden fence separating the house from the cornfield that reached her hip, and he stopped there. 
“Finally,” he sighed, “Some peace and quiet.” He makes a gesture to the fence, and pops his gum. 
Dizzied, the tequila still in her head, she watches his tongue gather the gum back into his mouth, his lips shining with his own spit. Y/n doesn’t register that the movement towards the fence was his way of telling her to take a seat on the wooden bars. 
“C’mere,” he murmured. Placing his hands on her waist, he lifted her up so she could sit on the wooden fence, and her hands went to his wrists instinctively, trying to keep herself steady. 
Suddenly out of breath, her eyes shot straight up to his. There’s no way he can’t hear my heart right now, she thinks. He’s so close to her, his breath on her face. He smelled like pink bubblegum, cologne, and a liquor much more sophisticated than what she had to drink. His eyes held the same spell that she felt she was under. 
“What’s your name?” He asked, his hands still on her waist. He didn’t look like he was in a rush to step away from her, and that was okay because she didn’t want him to. 
“Y/n,” she whispered. It was physically impossible to raise her voice any louder. The stupid corset was making it harder for her to breathe, along with the added pressure of being in his presence. “You?”
“Prince Harry, at your service,” he smiled then, and y/n got a glimpse of shockingly sharp canines. They had to be fake. Longer than most in length, and she swore she saw one of those cartoonish-diamond glitter at the knife-like tips of his teeth. 
She pointed to his mouth and said, “Are you a vampire prince?”
He looked at her strangely, his brows furrowing and his tongue running along the inside of his cheeks. Then, he laughed. “Something like that.” 
“I-” She was gonna say something along the lines of ‘I think you’re a very good looking vampire prince’ until he cut her off.
“How about we play a game?” One of his hands lifted from her waist, and she let go to steady herself by grabbing onto the plant. Y/n hoped that her dress wasn’t getting dirty, but the moment that Harry brushed a stray lock of hair behind her ear it flew out the window. 
Her eyes fluttered closed, and she leaned into his touch like a purring kitten. She blamed her blatant carelessness on the alcohol. “A game?”
“Yes, y/n. A game,” he muttered, watching the way her eyes twitched under her eyelids. 
“Which game?” Her eyes fluttered open again, and her breasts pushed against the corset as she took a deep breath, “I thought you wanted to talk?”
“Oh,”he glanced down, to her lips and for half a second, to the repressed mounds of her tits,  “I promise the conversation is going to be much more interesting after a game of hide and seek.” 
“Where would we even play t-that?”
“Right,” he pinched her chin with two fingers so that her lips smushed together, and gently tilted her head towards the field of corn. “There.” 
That’s how she found herself, running for her life in the middle of a corn maze, at night, on Halloween. 
What had started off as her giggling and running had soon into a panting, scared-shit-less run for no reason. Maybe it was because she just couldn’t get Harry off of her tail, or maybe it was that she was running with no direction into a cornfield she was sure was lost in. Maybe it was a combination of all those things. 
Harry yelled, “Come out, come out, wherever you are,” and it only made her want to cry. 
It was strange, really. Y/n didn’t know where this fear was coming from, it started out with them actually having fun, the tips of his fingers tugging at the fabric of the skirt before he let her run a bit, calling out how he was going to get her, how he was gonna catch the princess and she was giggling, turning to see him disappear when she turned. 
Then he went quiet. The footsteps stopped. And his tone of voice dropped to something much more… sinister. 
“Come out, little one,” he said, a clear whisper poured directly into her ear. 
Y/n turned, and she felt him getting closer so she tried to run faster. But she was getting so, so tired, and it felt like she couldn’t get any air into her lungs. All she knew then was the moon, with her tired face, and the intimidating, tall stalks of corn. 
Harry supposes that he’s doing her a favor. A lot of people wish they could run through a field wearing a dress like the one y/n has on. He was a bit of a shit, sure, setting her up for failure given he had abilities that she did not possess, but, he knew just as he knew the sky is blue- that she liked and wanted to walk into the corn field. Now, it wasn’t because Harry happens to be really good at reading people, no.
As an empath- one of the terms in the fine print of the being he was- he was able to connect into the funnel between her veins, the curved out thrum of what she was feeling. The witches he knew compared it to reading an aura, but it was much more than that. There was no need for interpretation of colors because it was like he was her, feeling what she was feeling. And she liked it.
Up until, of course, he switched up his game. 
After a few minutes of running around and playing with her like she was a mouse, Harry decided that he wanted to scare her. He wanted to give her a taste of himself. He wanted her to be scared- to not like him. Because he was something that shouldn’t be liked. It was a sick thing, really, that he happened to be so good looking when he was a literal monster. Harry fucking drank human blood. He wasn’t something that should be thought of as Greek statues. 
The part of him that remained human throughout the years felt bad for doing this to her. But, he had to. It made him feel better when he sunk his teeth into a victim’s skin. Almost like… he’d warned them, and it was their fault that they hadn’t taken the signal.
A scarecrow loomed overhead, and her lungs were running out of air, so he decided to go ahead and make his final jump on her. 
When y/n broke through the final turn to reach the very small clearing in the center of the field where a scarecrow stood in between a few bales of hay, she felt his breath at the back of her throat, and her knees buckled. 
She’d never really been much a screamer during a jump scare. Instead, she sucked her breath in, really loud and sudden, and because she was having such a hard time breathing, that instinctually breath caused black dots to litter her vision and suddenly those weak knees contributed to a faint. 
Harry caught her, and picked her up, huffing a small laugh to himself as he laid her across the piles of hay. 
She really was a sight to see. Flushed, hair a mess from all her running. Her lips were dewy and her waterline was agitated, he could see the moisture in the place where her eyelashes sprouted. 
With a few pats to the cheek, her eyes fluttered open, he was still hovering over her. Harry did not make a move to scoot back. 
“You’re awake, princess,” he said, smirking.
Y/n blinked, her eyes wide, and… gasped when Harry pressed a kiss to her cheek. His lips were cool against her heated cheek, and the curved ends of his slicked back hair tickled her chin. 
“You chased me,” she gulped, “for a long time.”
“Yes, I did. And you liked it. Didn’t you, little one?” He allowed the tip of his nose to follow the line of her jaw, testing the waters. She liked it, he could feel the shudders it sent to her heart in his bones. 
“I did.” Her eyes furrowed at her own admission. Why was she being so carefree? Why was she allowing herself to continue to stay in this cornfield? What was stopping her from questioning further what the fuck was going on? Her attraction, and his implied interest, that’s what.
Harry’s tongue slipped out of his mouth, and licked at her jaw before he placed another kiss to it, “Good. What do you say we have some more fun?” “What kind of fun?” Her head titled, and he was given direct access to what he wanted. Her neck. The column of her throat was pulsing with the beat of her heart, and the veins he could almost taste criss-crossed beneath her skin. 
“Fun is fun, pet. But if you must know, the kind of fun I’m talking about involves a lot of mouth to mouth,” He moved so his face was directly in front of hers again, and his palm gripped her waist beneath him. Unconscioslu, her legs parted and Harry had more space to slide both of his thighs between hers, one of his knees resting on the bales of hay she rested on. 
Y/n was no longer worried about the state of her dress, but rather, where his mouth would land, and where she would put her hands. Her eyes bounced between his, but they struggled to remain still under his intense hold. “O-okay. I’d like that.” 
“The prettiest princess I’ve ever seen,” he mumbled into the hollow underneath her jaw. And it was true. He’d seen a lot of royalty all throughout his wretched life, and none of them had been as pretty as she was. He felt a shiver of arousal go through her at the same time the air came fresh into his lungs, and it felt like he was going to explode from the inside out. 
“I think you’re the most handsome prince I’ve ever seen.” 
Y/n wanted to slap a hand over her mouth the moment those words left her lips, but Harry only chuckled and the vibrations felt heavenly against her skin. 
“You've been seeing other princes’, little one?” Harry teased, his mouth tracing their words against her lips. He pressed forward and kissed her; just a peck, testing. Again, she liked it. 
“No, just you,” she shivered. Her words were coming out in pants now. The fabri of her dress was too thick and too abundant to allow for any frisky actions, but his mouth was enough. One of his fingers was running over the tops of her breasts. Her mouth opened, she wanted more. Harry tasted of pink bubble gum. She wondered where it went. 
He chuckled and kissed her once more. “Then how do you know you know I’m the most handsome?” 
“I just do,” she said, arching into his touch. His finger was hooking into her sleeve, and he let it snap into her skin. 
“You do?” He licked her bottom hip, and she whined. This game, whatever it was, she wanted it to be over. It was too much for her to handle. 
“Yeah,” y/n said in a dreamy, far-off voice. “I mean, yes. Yes.”
Harry relished in what she felt, and soon enough, his cock twitched in his trousers. He never let himself become… involved in his meals emotions, but it was different with her. She was tender, and sweet. Willing and not a nuisance that he drowned out before biting. 
“Am I handsome enough... for you to let me bite you?” And that was another thing. 
Harry never asked for permission. Y/n was drunk enough that she’d wake up the next morning and think that he was just some kinky dude who’d left a sick hickey on her throat, as all of his ‘victims’ were, but still. Harry had asked for permission. 
“Bite me?” She was confused, head fuzzy with the same feeling that was heating in her groin. The lacy knickers she wore were probably soaked through. The bale on her bum was beginning to hurt. 
“Yes, princess. Bite, right,” he licked a stripe right where her pulse was the strongest to accentuate his intentions. “Here.”
“Okay, Harry.” 
He was handsome. And she was horny (with a mix of other things), she didn’t see a reason to say no. 
“Thank you, pet.” 
It was the same as it always was. Harry nuzzled into the spot, sniffing like a dog meeting a new friend, and with no preamble, he bit into her. The tips of his teeth pierced her flesh, and he allowed them to retract once the blood started to flow. When the first drop touched his tongue, he groaned. She was good, one of the best he’d ever had, and the heady flavor was just as sweet as she was. He was so caught up in his own satisfaction that he didn’t notice the moment her hands bunched the fabric of his suit from the late 1700s into fists, or her body going tense before he slowly relaxed, her heartbeat an irregular mix as she decided whether or not she should be panicking. 
But, he knew that she continued to enjoy what she was doing. 
“H-harry, I-”  She went limp in his arms, and the small squeak that left her mouth was the mermaid’s song that enchanted Harry. 
He knew this wouldn’t be the last time he’d see her again.
