hi coming in a lil early for Smutty Tuesday but hear me out:

Azriel with a size kink and a corruption kink - a reader who is shy, quiet, easily flustered.

They’re at some party or gathering, reader gets overwhelmed and decides to hide away in a room to read her /definitely not/ smutty romance book. Azriel finds her, finds out what she’s *reading* (he definitely teased her about and her blush gave it away) and whatever resolve or restraint he has just snaps at the idea of ruining her 🫠🫠🫠

*insert rubbing hands together evilly here*

Life Imitates Art (Azriel x Reader)

WARNINGS: Smut, 18+, Size Kink, Corruption Kink, Oral through Panties, Oral

The room you are hiding in offers you peace and quiet, something sorely lacking in the ballroom just down the hall. You were always easily overwhelmed, preferring to stick to the shadows and be the wallflower, so you are certain no was missing you as your fingers turn the page.

You feel your lips curl up in a shy smile as your eyes scan over the page, the vulgarity in the text making your heart race. Nesta certainly has an interesting collection of books...you would have to steal from the pile more often.

Everything around you disappeared as you delved further and further into the story, rubbing your thighs together at the unholy images racking your brain with each word. You were so engrossed that you didn't hear the door open nor the footsteps walking towards you.

A large, scarred hand fell between the pages, and it made you jump. Your face went as red as a tomato as you saw the infamous Shadowsinger above you.

"I knew there was someone missing from the party..." He murmurs, hazel eyes dark as you try to snap your book shut. His hand prevents it though, fingers curling against the bottom and pulling it easily out of your grasp.

"Wait, that's-" You try to reach for it, but he clicks his tongue, giving you a warning glance before turning to read.

"His fingers curled inside me, touching me in places that I had dreamed of him caressing," Azriel's voice was pure sex as he smirked, enjoying the way you shrank into the chair from embarrassment. "I could only see his eyes as he watched me between my legs, his hot breath fanning across my c-"

"Stop!" You plead, covering your ears. "Please, I get it, just don't read further."

"What's wrong, Y/N? You were just reading this yourself, were you not?" He teased, snapping the book shut with a loud thud. "Why are you so embarrassed now?"

You groan and cover your face, shaking your head to try and see if this is simply a dream. However, when you peek through your fingers, Azriel was still there, watching you.

"Did you like it?"

"Az, I didn't mean for you to find me reading-" You protest until he leans forward even more, both of his hands bracing on the arm of the large lounge chair and caging you in.

"That's not what I asked you, little mouse. Answer me." His tone is authoritative, shivers running down your spine as you crane your head back to look him in the eyes.

"I...yes, yes, I liked it." Your voice is barely above a whisper as you see his jaw clench, the fabric of the chair crunching from how hard his grip had gotten.

"Was that so hard?" He asked, gaze falling briefly to your lips before back up to your eyes. "I didn't know a girl like you read those kinds of books. I wonder what else I don't know about you..."

One of his hands came up to rest against the column of your throat, his eyes lighting up with enjoyment at the way you swallowed at the contact. Your breath hitched when he knelt in front of you, his hands falling to your thighs and spreading them with ease.

"Have you ever been tasted before?" Azriel murmurs, slowly bunching your skirts up your leg to reveal more and more skin.

You felt like you were going to faint as your brain tried to catch up with what was happening, confused as to how this had escalated so quickly but not at all upset.

"Y/N." He calls, pinching your thigh and making you squeak. "Answer me when I ask you a question. Have you?"

"N-No, I've never...I've never done anything like this..." You mumble.

Azriel stops at the top of your thigh, his eyes closing for a brief moment as his nostrils flare. You try to sit up, worried you've upset him, but gasp when he all but shoves you back down into the chair.

It takes him a moment to speak again, his gaze fully concentrated between your legs where your panties were just starting to become visible. You swear you saw him shaking, his wings extending as he finally stops when he reveals yourself fully.

"Little mouse..." He moans, wrapping both of his arms under your thighs and yanking you forward until your ass was hanging off the end of the seat. "I can't wait to ruin you."

He immediately licks a long stripe over your lace underwear, his spit soaking through as the sensation sends your body buzzing. You whimper as he eats you out through the thin material, making sure to soak your entire underwear as you wiggle and roll your hips.

When he's had enough teasing, he moves his hand to each side of your hip and rips through them like paper, wasting no time in getting back to feasting on your pussy. Your fingers grasp his short hair, your eyes squeezing shut as your pleasure only increases.

"Oh, Az, please!" You gasp, back arching when he hums his praises of your vocalizations. "Fuck!"

"That's it, pretty girl," He moans, sucking and nibbling on your clit as his ring finger circles around your entrance. "Scream for me."

As he gives you another particularly hard suck that makes you see stars, he also pushes his finger into you. You moan loudly, walls clamping down on the intrusion as he curses.

"Stars, you are so fucking tight," Azriel hisses, thrusting in and out. "I can't wait to stretch you out, princess. To see this tiny cunt swallow me whole."

"I want it," You whine, looking down at him desperately. "I want you so bad, please I can't take much more."

There was the familiar feeling of your orgasm building, but it felt so much more intense than you were used to. You didn't have control over your body or your words as pleas and whines flow out like water.

"You can and you will." He snarls, pulling away as he adds a second finger and starts scissoring you open. "You'll take everything I give you. Do you know why?"

You shake your head, your clothes feeling too tight on your skin as he curls his fingers and hits that spot that makes you scream.

"Because this is mine." Azriel curls his fingers again, bringing you that much closer to the edge. "Your cries, your moans, your pleasure, it is mine and mine only. Only I can give you this, bring you to this point, and you'll take it and thank me."

"Yes, only you!" You repeat, barely coherent, as you start to clench around his fingers. He adds a third one, coming back to hover his mouth over your clit.

"Do you want to cum, mouse? Want to make a mess all over this chair, my fingers, my face?" He taunts you, watching as your cheeks heat up again from his words. "I want to hear you say it before you cum."

"Az, please!" You cry, hips bucking as he starts to flick your bud with the tip of his tongue. However, your words fall on deaf ears as he waits for you to give in, to speak those filthy thoughts aloud.

Shame will come to swallow you whole at a later time, your pleasure fogging your mind until all you can think of is Azriel's tongue, fingers, cock...

"I want to cum! I want to cum on your fingers, on your cock, I don't care!" Your voice breaks as he keeps you on edge, his pupils blown wide as he watches you fall from your pedestal of innocence and into his awaiting arms. "Please, please, please. I need it, I need you-I just-"

You can't finish your sentence as he mumbles against your sopping cunt and starts curling his fingers again, licking your clit just right to send you falling into an abyss of carnal rapture.

Your entire body seizes up, your mouth falling open to silently scream. He continues to fuck you through it, prolonging your pleasure as tears form in the corner of your eyes. You had touched yourself before, had made yourself cum, but it never felt this powerful.

Azriel watches you, his breathing ragged as you look at him with hazy eyes. It takes you a moment to realize he had picked you up and was carrying you out of the room and up the stairs, your head resting against his chest.

"Where are you taking me?" You ask hoarsely.

"To my room. I told you you'd take all of it, Y/N, and that doesn't just mean an orgasm."

On Timm Flipline

Hello papa louiers,

The guy who brought you cursed Pinch Hitwell headcanons is here with something legit this time.

TLDR; Timm was traumatized by being kidnapped during the first platformer game and decided to say "fuck being a lawyer I'm pursuing my dream." Unfortunately, it does not go super well.

This is my headcanon on the series of events in Timm's life.

Ever since he was a child, Timm wanted to be a dancer. However, his parents did not support the arts. They were insistent on him becoming a lawyer, or perhaps any other high caliber career, and could not stand his foolishness.

Therefore, Timm did not receive any lessons or support for his dream. He did not give up though, and in a Footloosian manner, would secretly dance in his room whenever he felt the urge to jive.

Timeskip to the future. He passed law school and is now a partner in a successful law firm working for the restaurant mogul Papa Louie. His parents are proud. He's making a name for himself, living comfortably, and although this isn't a Quimm post I think probably has an active romantic life as well >:)

Then, it happens. Timm, alongside others, is kidnapped and taken to Munchmore. Timm is locked in a cage, surrounded by sentient onions and tomatoes who are out for blood. He does not know how long he will be trapped here. He does not know if he will make it out alive. He is hungry, tired, and afraid.

After the kidnapping, Timm is a changed man. He has been brought face-to-face with his own mortality, and he realizes that life is too short to be stuck in a job your parents pushed you into. He listens to the beat of his dancing heart and leaves! Sure, Quinn is heartbroken, but she doesn't understand. He has to do this.

Timm is unsure what to do with himself after going from a cushy lawyer job to nothing but savings and a dream. As if a sign from heaven, he comes across a job post from Whiskview Dance Studio! Wowza! He applies immediately and gets the job. Things are going good for him. Too good.

When he arrives, the dance studio has closed. Timm is crushed, his spirits sunk to their lowest. His former employer, Papa Louie, appears from the ether and tells Timm that he has opened another brand new restaurant: Papa's Bakeria. In his saddened state, Timm agrees to work there alongside another downtrodden dancer, Cecilia (weird that they both ended up there . . .)

According to Cecilia's flipdeck, it takes them a year of work before finally, Papa Louie reopens the dance studio. In the game, the ending is the same, with the studio either being Timm's or Cecilia's. However, in her flipdeck, it specifically says that Cecilia is the one who owns the studio.

My interpretation of these events is that Papa Louie felt betrayed by Timm leaving, so when the time came, he gave the studio to Cecilia. Cecilia had never wronged him, but Timm did.

From there? Who knows! I sure don't.

[makaybee]

Giana was an only child that played in the quite streets of Willowcreek. Though her parents, Thomas and Alana Mullins, gave her the best of everything, there was always something missing. Her request for more siblings was met with rejection, and involuntary solidarity made her aware of just how alone she was. Both parents were workaholics. Her mother, a Britechester graduate with a distinguished degree (with honors) in Fine Arts, had at the time landed a job as an art curator. Her father was a chef at a five star restaurant and cooked more meals for strangers than he did for his own family. Looking back now, she could understand why having another child wouldn't have been the best decision.

Her relationship with her mom became strained as she aged. Alana strove for perfection in her work life and expected the same of her home life. As a result, Gigi attended a private high school that probably cost more than her mother's luxury car. With her mother's firm insistence, she attended a plethora of extra curricular activities. Soccer, softball, art club, music...there were too many to count, and if it weren't for the wall of framed awards her mother displayed in her library, she wouldn't even remember any of it. Because if she were being honest, she didn't care. The trophies, the acknowledgments, were just another way to earn her parent's attention.

Her despondency worsened in college. Her mother insisted that she follow in her footsteps. Gigi really didn't want to take the same path her mother took, but part of her still yearned for attention and approval. And so, she also pursued a degree in Fine Arts. She used painting to express her anger, and for a while her pieces, though brilliant, were filled with caged frustration and loneliness. Then she ran into Dillan -quite literally- outside of the Foxbury Common Cafeteria. (Nobody had mocha lattes like Foxbury.)

Distracted by the phone in her hand, she had just enough time to register the long string of expletives (Did she detect a Mt. Komo accent?) before a dripping hot slice of pizza, followed by -was that a fizzy blurpleberry soda?- splattered on her brand new white Simverse sneakers. Well dang.

Slowly, she pulled her eyes up from the bubbling mess on the ground. She totally expected to be berated for ruining some poor guy's lunch. Her gaze took note of his ruined Simdidas shoes (definitely limited edition), fashionably distressed jeans, (covered in pizza sauce), to the shirt that read “Never trust atoms. They make up everything”. The guy stared at the ground for what seemed like forever, so she couldn't read his expression behind the expensive designer glasses he wore. Still, she could've sworn she picked up on a bit of anger? Hostility?

His eyes flitted to hers, but only for a moment before dropping once again to the mess between them. She braced herself for another slew of profanities, the kind worthy of a parental advisory label, but all he asked was, “How do you fix a broken pizza?”

She stood there baffled, unsure of how to respond. The absurdity of the question in a situation like this...

His dark eyes rose to meet hers before asking once again. “How do you fix a broken pizza?”

Still she stood there, mouth gaping, probably looking like a fish out of the Brindleton Bay. “Tomato paste.” He said with finality.

“What?” She asked.

“That's how you fix a...pizza. You know...that’s broken. Tomato paste. Get it?” A single brow rose as he studied her reaction.

Gigi let his words run through her head for a second as she struggled to piece together the scene unfolding. Before she could stop it, laughter, genuine and pure, poured from her traitorous lips. She couldn’t believe she was actually laughing -like a chortling donkey, mind you- at such a corny joke. Honestly, it was the stupidest thing she ever heard. And yet, it was at that very moment, she knew she found a kindred soul, and she wouldn't have to be alone for as long as he was around. Needless to say Gigi and Dash were fast friends after that day.

so 7 rewatch

- headlines are about a rapist being poisoned by his wife…. i smell jason on the way

- Yaaaaa here comes the relationship dynamic montage

- zoueyteena: mutualism. nuthphop: protocooperation. captainkeen: commensalism. firstsoong, jasonporsche, porschejump: parasitism. aobpuen: competition. promnont: predation

- the fact nuthphop don’t need eachother but are better when they’re together i feel implies that zoueyteena do need achother….

- jason booooooo tomatoes tomatoes

ep 7 time for revenge

- firstzouey bedroom argument scene my beloved omg

- captain as the moderator looking into the camera skdjdjsj

- i’m with zouey on this one first leaving his crumbs and wrappers and cum on zoueys comforter is too far

- these absolute fucking clowns i love the baddies so fucking much

- nont looking at zouey and saying “what if nuth didn’t make him disappear” im screaming....

- ok but the framing of nont walking away, porsche looking at zouey, and the rest of the baddies watching nont leave but zoueys positioned further away….. the visual storytelling the foreshadowing the drama

- the way porsche wasn’t included in the framing this scene either yall

- captain IS so baby tho….

- the way the rugby guy just takes out his phone to record captainkeen is nasty the world truly is a place

- NUTHPHOP BEING CUTE IM GONNA EXPLODE AHHHHHHHHHHH

- no one talk to me about this the way we get to see phop through nuths eyes im gonna scream

- i think i may love zoueyteena too much….. like teena being pouty. zouey teasing him. i’m gonna punch my computer

- the sound effects skejdjjejrufh

- let’s go promnont gun scene enthusiasts

- “i will leave quietly like how i arrived” is still so funny like nont nothing about you has been subtle skejjwej

- jump saying he’s been a sugar baby’s sugar baby before….

- aobpuen scene of all time

- i forgot about the revenge montage

- captain is a MENACE

- NUTHPHOP AHHHHHHHHHHH

- a bird in a cage a bird in a cage

- thinking about zouey telling teena he’s the first person whose been let in the secret art room voluntarily… but the art room feels like a metaphor for zoueys secrets and emotions……. screaming screaming screaming

- no one talk to me about this scene

- “even if you think badly of yourself and think you’re imperfect i still see and remember a better version of you” AND WHAT IF I LOSE MY MIND

- about revenge zouey says “those who have done something wrong should be punished. i guess it it happens naturally it’s fine. we will never know if what we do is much more than he deserves.”............

- nuth was obviously a red herring cause in no mystery thriller is the character whose house is covered in blood and feels the urge to kill would genuinely be the murderer

- the way nont opens the door is so fucking funny

- obsessed with nuth being like “bro why would you come here after the shit you pulled….. hold on HOW are you here after the shit you pulled?!?!?!?”

- the way this scene had us all in a chokehold when it came out…..

[pushingdaisies1]

silly posting on main!,!!! >_<

Okay omg I know I don’t talk on here much but im alive and I have thoughts! My writing brain has kicked in for another interest and my idea is like jumping around like a little cockroach. Feedback sounds nice but it’s okay if there’s none of that because this is living in my head rent free and I’m trying to kick it out!! (Not rlly but yk.)

so I love mythic quest. Der duh as I’m posting this in the Mythic quest tag. I was introduced to the show through watching it’s always sunny of course. And now this idea about a Ian centric oc insert story is living inside of my head.

Okay , SO - take it back to when it all started. 2013 , characters a struggling artist who hit it big once after graduating with a fine arts degree. Probably having an online presence , they run an active blog. Posting their stuff , internet slooth if you will. I know they said something about Ian having an internet presence before MQ so stay with me here. Sharing similar interests , maybe playing into the one off story similarities of Doc and Bean - similar interests cause them to connect. Soon enough meet , kindle a sort of kinship and here comes casual!!

if I’m thinking about it all correctly, this would be at least around the same time Ian and Sharon split. Fresh from his divorce and ‘abandonment’ of his own son he’s like a fresh and searing piece of beef, and you decided to press your prongs into him. Soon incomes this under-wraps sort of casual deal. (I know there’s technically a art director but the guys barely around on screen and two creative directors became a thing) with the fact that Ian specifically spotted them out for their art , they were able to find a position. A high ranking position that basically caused them to be one of the biggest pillars of MQ itself. Yadda yadda secret relationship until issues start to come up. Ian and poppy’s relationship, context being platonic or not , is so rich. So co-dependent , destructive , but rich in man ways. Not to mention that Ian , even in his Ian-ness , isn’t the nicest tool in the shed either. As he can admittedly be Ian , also known as a scared little boy.

in short , it becomes the whole idea of twos a party three is a crowd. I don’t wanna drop the entire idea on here but that’s the basis of it. I want feedback, boo tomatoes or whatever. But it’s like I love Brad , BUT BUT there’s so many other good characters rich with personality to write for too in that show. Also , rob is just so rob<3

yap to me , throw tomatoes, I just want to hear thoughts. Also because mythic quest just deserves a lot more love in general. I wish a lot of people talked about the show more because so many amazing creative minds r involved. I say this as a it’s always sunny fan and an Ashley burch lover from her guest role on critical role. Anything with the gang tied to it will always be either a masterpiece or somewhat enjoyable.

done yapping , back in my cage I go.

(SRRY for tagging the it’s always sunny in Philadelphia tag instead of just mythic quest , I thought it made sense cause I mentioned it once or twice.)

Movies I watched this Week # 149 (Year 3/Week 45):

Between 'Mean Streets' and 'Alice doesn't live here anymore', Martin Scorsese made the documentary ItalianAmerican, which is basically a home movie. It features his parents bicker and talk at their apartment, remembering the old days of their families.

🍿

2 with teenager Scarlett Johansson:

🍿 Re-watch: Sofia Coppola's Lost in translation, while waiting for her latest 'Priscilla'. "Sleepless in Shinjuko". Sad and vulnerable 17-year-old Scarlett Johansson, a 'stranger in a strange land' is having a 'Brief Encounter' moment, with less-asshole-than-usual Bill Murray. (Photos Above).

Another melancholic exploration of a lonely young woman, who finds herself captured in a privileged gilded cage. An exceptional, subtle masterpiece. 10/10.

🍿 The horse whisperer starred 14-year-old Johansson as a horse-lover who becomes emotionally stunted after a riding accident that caused her to lose part of her leg (all in the first 10 minutes of the film). It's a sloooow, traditional 3-hour-long story about healing, told mostly in beautifully-cinematic Montana. But it worked for me, in spite of the well-shot sentimentality. 7/10.

🍿

My first 2 by German auteur Christian Petzold, both with Paula Beer:

🍿 Afire - a tremendous, complex drama about a vain, immature writer on a working vacation. The little summer cottage close to the Baltic sea, is soon encroached by a forest fire, as does his self-centered world view of himself and his art. It starts at one emotional point, and skillfully moves to a completely different, tense level. 9/10.

🍿 Petzold wanted to make a series of films about the 4 elements. Undine refers to the myth of 'water nymphs', so rivers, industrial diving, large aquariums, and drowning in a pool are all part of the story. It's a lovely, simple romance, which eventually turns into a dark fantasy. My 5th film with Franz Rogowski. 4/10.

🍿

3 More of Claude Chabrol’s Hitchcockian thrillers:

🍿 “… You like meat?…”

Le Boucher, a low-key, atmospheric thriller about a single woman who befriends a village butcher, who's also a serial killer. Fantastic snapshot of the people at 'the country' (Dordogne) at this time. 9/10.

🍿 The ceremony (La Cérémonie) is a similar dark story, set in a solid bourgeoisie family. Isabelle Huppert & Sandrine Bonnaire becomes friends and eventually decide kill them all. Like 'Stanley & Iris' from last week, the protagonist is illiterate. 6/10.

🍿 The Unfaithful Wife, another terrific, low-key, civilized study of a French bourgeois household. A loving husband discovers that his loving wife is having an affair, and ends up killing her lover. I liked it so much, and thought it would be a very good candidate for a modern remake. Then I remembered Adrian Lyne's 'Unfaithful' with the luminous Diane Lane in the Stéphane Audran role. Maybe I should watch it again! 8/10.

I discovered Chabrol late, and have only seen about 10% of his 74 movies. Now I have to see them all!

🍿

Milf, another film with Virginie Ledoyen, a soft-core sex comedy. Three older women looking to hook up with boys 20 years younger. A similar concept to the Naomi Watts film 'Adoration'. I only watched it because it is directed by a woman and had 13 on the Tomato score. Better than Zalman King.

🍿

Wow! After 4 months of anticipation, the venerable bio-pic Oppenheimer finally hit my free streamers. I watched all 3 hours of it but left completely underwhelmed. This is the seventh of Christopher Nolen's praised big-budget epic films that I saw, and so far none of them had floated my boat. Okay, so I'm not a big blockbusters fan.

It's not very hip to rail against McCarthyism in 2023. Twenty-twenty revisionist vision, mambo-jumbo pseudoscience, overwrought endless, loud soundtrack, and basically the usual biography of a "Great man", which is always a boring subject for a movie. 4/10.

🍿

3 by regular Fincher screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker:

🍿 On the other hand, David Fincher’s new thriller The killer was a thrill ride that was a joy to watch. A cold blooded professional assassin, laconic and super-human, flies around the world ruthlessly killing people. Mesmerizing (but predictable) suspense with an effective Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross score. I could do without the inner monologue that replaced conversations in the story. Also, a great comic book knock-out fight after an hour and a half of deliberate, slow go. 7/10.

🍿 In 2001, BMW produced 8 short films by famous directors as "Branded Content", i.e. advertisements. Called 'The hire' they all featured Clive Owen driving Beamers around the world. AKW wrote two of them:

The Follow was directed by Wong Kar-wai, and was about an aborted diamond heist.

Ambush was directed by John Frankenheimer, and was about a woman being followed by her husband.

The other shorts were by John Woo, Tony Scott, Ang Lee, etc.

🍿

5 more Danish films, 3 with Henning Moritzen (The patriarch from ‘Celebration’) and 2 with Mads Mikkelsen:

🍿 Tænk på et tal (Think of a number), a 1969 old-fashion, enjoyable Danish 'Krimi' with an enduring theme song. A meek bank teller finds a discarded note from a bank robber, and gets involved in a lethal game.

This story was later remade into the Elliott Gould caper 'The silent partner'. I love such slow and delightful dramas, and I love Bibi Andersson.

it’s funny how movies that used to be throwaway entertainment products 60 years ago, gain completely different meaning today. I should start exploring the many Danish Noir from the 40's and 50's. 7/10.

🍿 50 years later, In the Oscar-nominated short The pig, Moritzen is old and fat, and is being hospitalised for some tests. There he lays and finds comfort in a simple picture of a pig jumping over a fence. Delightful!

🍿 On the other hand, Now is another Danish short (from 2003) starring Mads Mikkelsen. But it's an artsy-fartsy, humor-less, word-less "Art film", shot in black & white, with a constant baby crying. Like 'An Andalusian Dog' but without the charm and the magic… 1/10.

🍿 I was surprised to realize just now that my favorite Danish screenwriter Anders Thomas Jensen directed only 5 features and 3 shorts. (but he wrote 59 scripts!). Wolfgang is an early short of his, and not his best. Now I've seen all the movies that he directed.

I can't wait for his upcoming 'Monster of Florence' with Antonio Banderas and 'Back to reality'. Yeah!

🍿 So I took in one more viewing of his sentimental After the wedding, maybe for the 10th time. So full of emotional twists, old-fashioned melodrama, Sigur Rós score and peak Sidse Babett Knudsen.

🍿

Budapest Noir, a Hungarian murder mystery, set up in anti-semitic 1936. A hard boiled crime reporter investigates a murder of a beautiful prostitute, like a Jake Gittes named Zsigmond. Very strong 'Chinatown' vibes, including a smokey jazz score that tries to recreate its haunting atmosphere, and even the final line of dialogue "This is Budapest". 5/10.

[This is the 115th woman-directed film I've seen so far this year!].

🍿

Dumb money, the first enjoyable Reddit movie, about the 2021 GameStop short squeeze. Compelling Class War rhetoric with Seth Rogen as the billionaire 'heavy'. Up-to-the-minute updated drama of the 1% Vs. the unwashed masses. I think it will endure as another worthy addition to the sub-genre of 'highly entertaining explanation to boring real-life financial story', just like 'The big short' and 'Margin call'.

However, it used an Artificial Intelligent editing model that color-corrected the whole movie into a weird, fake, washed up look. 8/10.

🍿

First watch: Kurosawa's bleak Drunken Angel, an early post-war Yakuza film, and the first of the 16 collaborations between him and Toshiro Mifume. An alcoholic doctor befriends a young hoodlum suffering from tuberculosis. Located around an open sewer in a seedy neighborhood, still suffering under the American occupation.

🍿

Ikarie XB 1 (Or 'Voyage to the End of the Universe' as it was called in American), an influential and ambitious 1963 Czechoslovakian science-fiction saga, based on a Stanisław Lem novel. "Futuristic" space decor and story, very much in the Star Trek style. Cultish 1960's popcorn philosophy, but nonsensical and not a serious world building. Not for me - 1/10.

🍿

Thank Dog that the third season of Tim Robinson’s 'I think you should leave' was so short. The first season was outrageously different. The second season was a 'repeat on a theme'. This one was just cringey irrelevant. Absurd, awkward, confusing situations, exploding rage at small mistakes. No!

🍿

My first (and last) stand-up by comedian Nate Bergatze, The greatest average American. Average stories of 'relatable' everyday nitty gritty were hardly worth a chuckle.

🍿

Your Guide to Planting Tomatoes Like a Pro

Welcome to the wonderful world of growing your own tomatoes! Nothing compares to the satisfaction of biting into a juicy, sun-ripened tomato you've grown yourself. This article will provide you with detailed insights on how to plant tomatoes, making it easier for anyone looking to start their journey in growing these luscious, versatile fruits. Packed with tips and techniques, we'll guide you through from sowing the seeds to harvest time. Whether you've got a sprawling backyard or a compact balcony space, we'll provide you with the knowledge you need to grow the tastiest tomatoes. So, let's embark on this exciting journey to transform your garden with the cheerful charm of tomatoes. ```html

How Do You Plant Tomatoes? A Guide to Juicy Success

Growing tomatoes is part art, part science, and part trial-and-error comedy. There’s something uniquely satisfying about plucking a sun-warmed tomato from your own plant. But let’s be honest—if you don’t plan ahead, your once-hopeful tomato dreams can quickly spiral into a tangled mess of vines and dashed expectations.

I’ve been there—overwatering, underwatering, and once, *accidentally planting a tomato bush in the shade*. Spoiler alert: tomatoes love sunshine like kids love candy. So, if you want plump, flavorful fruit, a good strategy is key.

Step 1: Choose the Right Variety

Not all tomatoes are created equal. Are you dreaming of slicing up a beefsteak for burgers, or popping cherry tomatoes like candy? Match your goals with the right variety—it’s like picking the perfect pair of shoes for a long hike. Trust me, it matters.

Pro tip: Heirlooms are delicious but fussier than hybrids. If you’re a beginner, go with a reliable hybrid like Roma or Early Girl. Ease into the tomato world; there’s no shame in starting small.

Step 2: Location, Location, Location

Tomatoes are sun worshippers. Find a spot that gets a solid 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. If your chosen spot is shady, your tomatoes will sulk—and sulky tomatoes are no fun for anyone.

Also, don’t plant them too close together. They need room to breathe because crowded plants invite pests and diseases faster than free candy invites kids.

Step 3: Soil Prep Like a Boss

A tomato plant is only as strong as the soil it’s planted in. They thrive in nutrient-rich, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic pH (6.2 to 6.8, if you want to get technical). If your soil looks like it belongs in a desert, amend it with compost or organic matter.

“Tomatoes are like gourmet diners—they can’t thrive on fast food. Feed them well, and they’ll reward you generously.”

I learned this the hard way after planting my first tomato in lifeless soil. The plant grew, but the fruit tasted like cardboard. Lesson learned—quality soil makes all the difference.

Step 4: Plant Deep, Water Smart

Here’s a tomato-growing hack that blew my mind: plant them deep. Bury two-thirds of the plant, even some of the lower leaves. Tomatoes grow roots along their stems, which makes them sturdier and better able to absorb nutrients.

As for watering, think of tomatoes as Goldilocks plants—they don’t want too much or too little. Water deeply but not too often; aim to keep the soil consistently moist but not swampy.

Step 5: Stake Your Claim—Literally

Tomatoes need support, both emotionally (kidding!) and physically. Use stakes, cages, or trellises to keep them upright. Without support, your plants will flop over, and trust me, dragging tomatoes off the ground is not a good look.

Last year, I thought I could skip the stakes. Rookie mistake. My tomato plant turned into a sprawling, untamable jungle. Now, I stake early and often—it’s worth the effort.

Patience Pays Off

Tomatoes don’t rush. They take their sweet time ripening, but when they do, oh, the joy! There’s nothing like slicing into a homegrown tomato, knowing that you nurtured it from seed (or seedling) to table.

So, don't stress. Follow these steps, stay patient, and enjoy the process. You’ll have more tomatoes than you know what to do with in no time. And if you’re hungry for more tips, check out my related article on [Growing the Best Vegetables for Beginners]() for even more garden inspiration.

Final Thoughts

Planting tomatoes is part science, part love, and part rolling with the punches. You’ll make mistakes, but that’s half the fun. And hey, even if your first crop is less than perfect, there’s always next summer.

Now, go forth and grow! May your tomatoes be sweet, your vines strong, and your garden adventures endless.

In this blog post, we will cover 15 key subheadings that will guide you on your journey to becoming a tomato-growing expert.

The Basics of Growing Tomatoes

Tomatoes are a versatile and nutritious fruit that can be used in a variety of dishes. When it comes to growing your own tomatoes, it's important to start with the basics. Here are some essential points to keep in mind:

What type of tomato to grow

There are many different types of tomatoes, each with its own unique characteristics. Determinate tomatoes are bush-like and produce a defined amount of fruit, making them ideal for smaller gardens. Indeterminate tomatoes are vining and continue to produce fruit throughout the growing season. They are better suited for larger gardens. Consider your space and preferences when choosing which type of tomato to grow.

Where to plant tomatoes

Tomatoes need 6-8 hours of sunlight per day, so make sure to choose a spot in your garden that receives adequate sunlight. They also prefer well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter.

When to plant tomatoes

Tomatoes are warm-weather plants, so wait until all danger of frost has passed before planting. This is usually around mid to late spring. You can also start seeds indoors and transplant them outside once the weather warms up.

How to plant tomatoes

Start by digging a hole deep enough to cover the root ball of the plant Master the Art of Growing Juicy Tomatoes. Remove the lower leaves and bury the stem of the plant in the hole, leaving the top few leaves above ground. This will allow the plant to develop a strong root system. Water thoroughly after planting.

Water and Fertilizer

Tomatoes need regular watering, especially during hot and dry weather. Make sure to water at the base of the plant to avoid getting water on the leaves, as this can lead to disease. Fertilize your plants every 2-3 weeks with a balanced fertilizer to promote healthy growth.

Supporting your tomato plants

As your tomato plants grow, they will need support to keep them from falling over. You can use cages, stakes, or trellises to support your plants and keep them upright. This will also help to keep the fruit off the ground, preventing rot and disease.

Pests and diseases

Tomatoes are susceptible to pests and diseases, so it's important to stay vigilant and take preventative measures. Aphids, tomato hornworms, and tomato blight are common problems that tomato plants may face. Use natural deterrents or organic pesticides to protect your plants.

Harvesting tomatoes

Once your tomatoes are ripe, they can be harvested and enjoyed. Tomatoes are tastiest when they are allowed to ripen fully on the vine. Gently twist or cut off the fruit when it is fully red and firm. You can store ripe tomatoes at room temperature for a few days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Pruning tomato plants

Removing unwanted or damaged leaves and branches can help your tomato plants thrive. Prune off any foliage that is yellowing or showing signs of disease. This will promote air circulation and sunlight, leading to healthier plants and fruit.

Companion planting with tomatoes

Some plants can help to repel pests and attract beneficial insects when grown alongside tomatoes. Planting basil, marigolds, and garlic near your tomato plants can help to protect them from pests and improve their overall health.

Overwintering tomato plants

In colder climates, tomato plants will not survive the winter outdoors Master the Art of Growing Juicy Tomatoes. However, you can try to overwinter them indoors. Dig up the entire plant, including roots, and transplant it into a container. Keep the plant in a sunny spot and water regularly. With proper care, the plant may produce fruit throughout the winter.

Tomato plant diseases and how to prevent them

Tomatoes are susceptible to a variety of diseases, such as blight, wilt, and mosaic virus. Proper spacing, watering at the base of the plant, and using disease-resistant varieties can help prevent these diseases.

How to store tomato seeds

Saving seeds from your tomatoes is a cost-effective way to grow more plants in the future. To store tomato seeds, allow them to dry completely on a paper towel. Once dry, store them in a labeled envelope or container in a cool, dry place.

Tips for growing tomatoes in containers

Even if you don't have a backyard, you can still grow tomatoes in containers on a balcony or patio. Choose a larger container with good drainage and use a high-quality potting mix to provide the nutrients your plants need. Regular watering and fertilizing are essential for successful container gardening.

Common mistakes when growing tomatoes

Knowing what not to do is just as important as knowing what to do when it comes to growing tomatoes. Common mistakes include overwatering, planting too close together, and using poor quality soil. Avoid these mistakes by following the proper guidelines for growing tomatoes.

Controlling tomato pests and diseases organically

If you prefer to use organic methods in your garden Master the Art of Growing Juicy Tomatoes, there are still ways to combat pests and diseases on your tomato plants.

Beneficial insects, neem oil, and organic insecticidal soap can all be used to control pests while maintaining an organic garden.

How to preserve your tomato harvest

Using homemade compost for healthy tomato plants

Compost is a rich, organic fertilizer that provides essential nutrients for your tomato plants. You can make your own compost using kitchen scraps and yard waste, or purchase it from a garden center. Adding compost to your soil will improve its overall health and help your tomato plants thrive.

Over-fertilizing can lead to excess leaf growth and reduced fruit production, so be careful not to overdo it.

An old bit of research I did long ago.

So I was looking back at some of my old stuff when it comes to Vs and one I made was Jerry Mouse Vs Tweety Bird. I figure I could show it off since this is super old and doesn't even have a verdict. So let's take a look back and see what I did find back in the day...

Story Jerry Mouse Originally an unnamed mouse from a 1940s One Shot Cartoon called "Puss Gets the Boot", Jeremiah "Jerry" Mouse is the other half of the Duo known as Tom and Jerry. Their rivalry has lead to MGM winning numerous Academy Awards. Tom and Jerry has starred in 163 Theatrical Shorts, 3-4 Television Shows (if you consider Tom and Jerry Kids as their kids), 9 Straight to DVD movies and one full fledge Theatrical Film (that sucked, but still). Tweety Bird A World War 2 Veteran that first appeared in the 1942 Short "A Tale of Two Kitties" (nude but still Tweety). He was part of the Air Raid Patrol until the tail end of World War 2, where he was assigned as Messenger Pigeon to one Emma Webster (better known as Granny). Since then, he's been a loyal pet to her ever since. Tweety has starred in 46 shorts, made numerous cameos in other shorts, shows and movies, and even had his own Television Series and Direct to DVD Series. NOTE: Tweety has been called male numerous times, but his actual gender is unknown.

I have no clue why I pointed out that Tweety's gender is unknown. I'm pretty sure it is established to be male.

Interesting Note MGM won numerous Academy Awards over Warner Brothers, even when head to head with a cartoon of similar properties (The Cat Concerto Vs Rhapsody Rabbit). MGM won 4 straight Academy Awards until Warner Brothers finally broke it with the first official pairing of Sylvester and Tweety (Tweety Pie).

The Cat Concerto Vs Rhapsody Rabbit is definitely an old one people still debate about to this day.

Armor/Weapons Jerry Mouse Jerry doesn't normally carry weapons on him, but he is a user of Unconventional Weapons. If he can get his hands on anything, he can use it as a weapon. From pipes and wooden planks for weapons to Pies and Irons defensive barriers. He's also a master at creating Rube Goldberg Machines that inflicts as much pain as possible to his opponent. In the Cartoon "Yankee Doodle Mouse", Jerry has a Cat Raid Shelter, which he contains numerous vehicles and weapons like "Hen-Grenades" (Eggs), Tomato Launching Mouse Traps, Champagne Cork Launchers, Brick Launching Catapult, A Cheese Grater Jeep, Flour Smokescreens, Matryoshka Dynamite, and an Egg Carton Plane. In the various Mouseketeers shorts, he is shown to be an expert in wielding a Fencing Sword. Tweety Bird When shown owned by Granny, he is usually seen in a Bird Cage, usually held up high by a metal pole. The Bird Cage is easy to open but very difficult to get to. This is usually because Tweety has numerous traps around (mostly dogs) and has various blunt objects in his cage, ranging from clubs to anvils. In the Cartoon Short "The Jet Cage", the Bird Cage has been upgraded to a fully functional Caged Plane, capable of giving him flight with the safety of his Bird Cage. It is strong enough to carry a dragging Cat and also contains a bomb dropping door. And prior to his Granny days, he had a shotgun.

They most likely got more than this.

Abilities/Powers Jerry Mouse Do not think Jerry is just an ordinary Mouse. Despite his size, he is incredibly strong, able to lift objects a lot heavier than he is. He is also has dabbled in numerous martial arts, including Karate as seen in "The Karate Guard". As mentioned above, Jerry is an expert at Fencing, able to go toe to toe with an opponent of greater size with a sword larger than his body. While he does share certain traits with his opponent in terms of physics, he has two traits that are unique to him alone. When cornered (as seen in Mouse Trouble), unlike what a book would say Jerry would fight more viciously in a corner than how he would in an open area. The beating he would give to a cat 40 times his size is something you would not believe. The other unique trait is when Jerry gets angry. When his opponent has done something so heinous to Jerry, he fights more ferociously. His strength also seems to increase as well, being able to swing a full grown cat easily. His Anger Enhancements made a cat into a servant. Tweety Bird Tweety, being a bird, has the ability of Flight. He has shown numerous times, even today, that he can lift a cat with his flying. And during World War 2, his flying strength was even stronger as he was able to lift an adult woman with no problem. And in Tweety's High Flying Adventure, he was capable of flying around the World in 80 days while collecting 80 Cat Paw Prints In Space Jam, when shown to boost confidence, he's shown some knowledge of fighting as he was able to defeat four giant monsters. Back in World War 2, he was capable of fighting off a German Officer, even able to twist the guy around by the nose with his feet. And in his solo movie, he has an internal time keeping instinct. They Both Share Being a cartoon, they have Cartoon Physics on their side. That means most of their feats are more akin to Rule of Funny than actual physics. So their strengths and durability varies from time to time. They also have been exposed to the Jekyll Formula and have a Jekyll Form. Should be noted that Tweety's Jekyll Form was just a dream of Sylvester (Hyde and Go Tweet) while Jerry's Jekyll Form came from a formula that he can't replicate. (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Mouse) They're also strategist, able to figure out their opponent's strategies and use it against them.

Again, they definitely got more than this.

Weaknesses Jerry Mouse Jerry Mouse, unlike his Bird Opponent, has been defeated by Tom numerous times. Jerry is also vindictive. He does not stop going after his opponent even when the time is over for it. He even tortures Tom out of his Million Dollars despite the fact he would never have to worry about him attacking him ever again (The Million Dollar Cat). Tweety Bird Tweety is cocky. He's willing to give himself handicaps just to make it more challenging to him (Tweety's High Flying Adventure). Another weakness is that his opponents aren't in the same caliber than Jerry's opponents. They always seem to be dumber. And one final weakness is that he tends to have a "Wait and see" attitude most of the time. They Both Share Since they're both cartoons, they have a weakness to a concoction called Dip. Dip is a mixture of turpentine, acetone, and benzene. They’re also small, so they can't reach certain things easily. And with a small body, they are easier to be knocked or blown around.

Dip is no longer the big bad threat now that everything went Digital.
