“Their immense talent will no doubt be of great use elsewhere.”

And ofc, now Elon the big crybaby is threatening to sue Meta, because the people who he wrongly terminated are working for Meta.

What’s the saying? Karma’s only a bitch if you are ����

Not to mention, Elon flagrantly broke severance agreements when he fired them, so former Twitter employees are suing Phony Stark for half a billion dollars, and I hope they win.

"LOOK, KID, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND – I NEED MY COFFEE TO BE TWO HUNDRED AND TEN DEGREES. NINETY-NINE CELSIUS. ALMOST HOT ENOUGH TO BOIL BUT NOT QUITE. THE PERFECT TEMP!" a scattered chorus of groans echoes behind him, but his gaze remains attached on the barista, deep bags hung beneath his eyes. "LOOK!" he flashes a badge from his pocket, noting access to evermore's local lab. "I'M A SCIENTIST. I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT."

head tilting to the closest waiting customer, bill looks to them expectantly, brows raised. "HAVE YOU HAD COFFEE AT TWO-TEN BEFORE? YOU'D GET IT IF YOU HAD. IF OUR LOCAL BARISTA COOPERATES, I'LL EVEN LET YOU TRY IT! BUT YOU GOTTA CHUG!"

Days come and go but Sooyun finds herself in the comfort of Sohui often whenever she decided to venture out into the island even if it was getting a bit colder. she doesn't mean to but maybe it has to do with her own worries of other Imugi that she has clung to the older ever since they first met.

But it is also the case of Sooyun always asking her to go into the city to shop or go to a café. Though Sohui fits in with the humans more than she but it doesn't stop her from enjoying and continuing to learn from humans and the habits created around them. It's always something new to explore when Sooyun goes out.

"For Jeju being an island I wish it stayed a little warmer." Sooyun explained with her jacket zipped to the neck and arm wrapped around the other as if looking for body warmth. "Do you have anywhere you need to go? I just need some herbs from that local apothecary shop." Sooyun knows she can be pushy at times but tired to make sure she always hears the other of anything they want or don't want to do.

I was going to embroider a rose or something in the corner of this handkerchief, but then I realized I could do a wizard, so obviously I did a wizard.

i read the cutest reddit thread today where this 19 yo boy was “babysitting” his 15 yo little sister while his parents were away on vacation and she got this horrific period and needed to be taken to the ER.

and this sweet 19 yo boy was doing all he could to take care of her, giving her meds and water and then packing stuff up to go to the hospital once reddit was like “yeah if she’s soaking two tampons in an hour you should go” - but being only a little older than a child himself, he didn’t know what to pack, so he brought like three things, and one of them was SUNSCREEN.

lmao everyone on reddit was like “you’re a really good brother but sunscreen?? for the hospital??” lmao they are roasting him. also op’s sister changed his name in her phone to “spf” and their dad calls him “bananaboat” now. this guy is never living this down

(also his sister is ok and it turns out their family has some kind of genetic blood disorder)

@dbldipper

dipper can run as much as he'd like, but he can't hide – not from the nightmares that will catch up to him regardless of how much he may attempt to delay sleep. all those years ago, ford did the same in his desperate attempts to avoid being possessed – it's funny how the "smart" pines twins ("smart" and "pines" being paradoxical, really) can be so stupid.

and so, upon dipper falling asleep, just like every night he failed to avoid sleep in the months before, bill is there. not physically yet, no, instead, he offers a scene he's been waiting for –

a sky set ablaze, creatures with their flesh turned inside out howling unnatural noises, humans with shuffled features frozen in terror... the chaos he's been prophesied to bring for a billion years, and he will, even if it means millennia more of trying.

peer a little closer, and the star of the nightmare will realize the figures surrounding him are all friends:

his sister, melted in a frozen puddle, dozens of eyes scattered throughout her malformed statue, dripping with tears as four hands reach towards dipper.

his uncles, twin faces melded together in frozen terror, with a misshaped crown of six severed fingers.

then his parents, wendy, nearly every resident of gravity falls (among the few friends he held back home), each D̴̡̫̜͊I̴͚̊͒̎̈́͠S̵̡̺͖̓͑͝͝T̴̥̃̄͒͌̿Ö̵̖́́́̃R̴̜̳̣̈́͌͐T̵̨̤̮̫́Ę̵̘̹̭̯̾̔̀͐D̶̺̓̆ yet undoubtedly, them.

and after dipper has a long moment to reunite with his friends and family, bill appears behind him – this time, in the human figure he's been forced to inhabit in evermore, sitting upon another statue: one of dipper himself, but with too many limbs and a face devoid of any features, bleeding eyes and screaming lips and burning nose spilt on the flaming ground beside him.

— fresh to salt water

@wdtaeyang

Things from her past came and went, whether it be in smells, senses or just memories that drifted away the moment they appeared. It's what has keep her going in an sense, just trying to live and survive to the best of her abilities. Sooyun kept to herself, even when out in public to mingle with the locals, or just walk among them.

She always found herself being about the parks throughout Jeju Island, coming during the hours when peak tourism was scarce and the trails were bare. It became time for Sooyun when she needed to be alone, away from the salty sea and next to the fresh water rivers that reminded her of that little river she called home. The rivers that flowed within Hallasan held such a cold crisp when she touched the water, it brought memories of the winters near Geum when she would visit the villages in search of sweets. The water around her hand moved the current under her finger tips, watching the small fish swim in a circular motion until she heard steps coming up from the trail.

Sooyun soon stopped her menstruations of the water but did not leave its side. She figured it was either a hiker or one of the park rangers making sure people were getting off the trail since evening was approaching. It was only a glance she gave the man walking on the trail and didn't pay much mind of it until the water brought her pack to the past, telling her to look again. This time she sighs and turned to the man and by his outfit he was a park ranger, "Good evening---" The small smile that was on her face froze and her body rigid the moment her full attention was on the other.

Centuries ago there was an Imugi she encounter here and there as he was much older than she with the Geum River also his home. Though the last memory she had of them was when she hid in the water, watching him cry in pain as hunter did what they do to her kind. She remembers trying to push waves onto the hunters but her powers were weak, she was young, eventually running away when others came in her direction. It was one of the first times she even realized how in danger her kind were.

But now here she was in shock seeing a man whose face is etched in her memories as if he had come back from the dead. Sooyun wanted nothing more than to think it's just someone with similar features and it has triggered her emotions because now she has tears streaming down her face, not knowing if she should run or jump in the water for a faster get away. "Fuck. Sorry! I was just thinking of some stuff. I-I'll head home soon." Sooyun tried to smile out the tears but it was too much. The last thing she wanted was to blow her cover and make nothing out of something. It can't be him, it can't.

Wake up babe new fish dropped

[willofasherah]

seeing everyone just mindlessly sign up for threads despite all the clear warning signs feels like I’m living in Sailor Moon or a magical girl anime episode where the Monster of the Day just set up shop over night and their product is literally draining your lifeforce for the Dark Kingdom but people keep going there
