Demyx had a wish. To grant said wish, he needed a pair of ancient relics, one of which he already had. The other relic was under the possession of a powerful mage, and as much as Demyx hated playing the 'wait and snatch' game, that's just what he had to do. He just hadn't anticipated this mage being quite distractingly attractive.

Zexion should've heeded the town warnings about dark forests. A witch bestows upon him a power, both a gift and a curse, to travel across time for the sake of seeking knowledge. But the power comes with limits and it isn't until he meets Demyx that Zexion realizes just how harsh his limitations are.
*internal screaming*
Oh look, it’s ME. Fucking hell… *high fives the air* Give it up for being boring.
Katsuya and Seto can’t help but find each other arousing in and out of clothing.
—
“My style makes you mad horny,” Katsuya teased once.
“It makes me mad, period,” Seto rebutted.
Hard to argue his point when, minutes later, Seto, expression thunderous, tore open his shirt before wrapping his mean little pout around Katsuya’s cock instead.
Enjoy a new chapter in honor of #jounary week 2: fashion! Or some definition of fashion as worn by mob!Jounouchi. This chapter was also inspired by two beautiful pieces of fanart:
With the release of Android 12, Google began allowing users to delete their ad ID permanently. On devices that have this feature enabled, you can open the Settings app and navigate to Privacy > Ads. Tap “Delete advertising ID,” then tap it again on the next page to confirm. This will prevent any app on your phone from accessing it in the future.
On iOS
To see which apps you have previously granted access to, go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking. You can set the “Allow apps to Request to Track” switch to the “off” position (the slider is to the left and the background is gray). This will prevent apps from asking to track in the future. If you have granted apps permission to track you in the past, this will prompt you to ask those apps to stop tracking as well. You also have the option to grant or revoke tracking access on a per-app basis.
Apple has its own targeted advertising system, separate from the third-party tracking it enables with IDFA. To disable it, navigate to Settings > Privacy > Apple Advertising. Set the “Personalized Ads” switch to the “off” position to disable Apple’s ad targeting.
How clearly does the point need to be made that “police officer” is just a fucking job, one with minimal training and minimal monitoring. It is NOT some kind of promise of honesty, truth, or heroism. It is a bunch of assistant managers with extremely powerful weapons. IF you can understand “pedophiles choose to be priests and teachers so they can get to children”, IF you understand “arsonists choose to be firefighters so they can be present at their own crimes” - then you can ALSO understand “people who are bigoted, violent, and power-hungry choose to be cops for the opportunities the job presents” and you can ALSO understand “any occupational culture that chooses fraternity over justice - and the allowance of violence in the name of a unified front - is therefore siding with their worst representatives”
being a police officer is an entry-level job, and we are handing them weapons. nothing about their occupation automatically makes them smarter, quicker, braver, or in any way elite. there is very little in their onboarding process that would allegedly “weed out” the worst of the applicants - and once they are part of the fraternity, they’re not gonna leave.
we have been taught to respect, honor, and worship them by virtue of a job title they barely even had to try for. they sign no contract, swear no vow, and make no promise to the general public. it is a community that is extolled above others and given virtually no oversight. think about the kind of people who would be attracted to that opportunity. the adage: power corrupts. absolute power corrupts absolutely.
circling this back around to say FUCK ICE, and fuck you if you willingly support them just because they’re “a federal agent” and therefore “deserve respect”.
ICE officers are a fucking privatized militia they do not have authority over united states citizens and none of their so-called “purpose” requires live rounds and weapons. It is entirely made up of fascist racist dickbags with no fucking training. they are lower than scum. they’re police-school dropouts with no fucking spine. there is no honor in their position. they accomplish nothing but terrorizing communities they don’t even fucking live in.
Any!! occupation or government !! that chooses fraternity over justice - and the allowance of violence in the name of a unified front - is therefore siding with their worst representatives.
is it a hot take to say that i think you need to understand why something is bad, not just that it simply is?

this is a part of the problem
you need to be able to explain why you shouldnt use ai rather than “oh well its obviously bad and you shouldnt use it or else youre a bad person” because that isn’t logic. “ai generates child porn based off of real children and whether or not it does is entirely up to how it is built and if pedophiles are able to find ways around those safeguards, because ai cannot in itself discern right from wrong” is a genuine criticism. “amazon tried to build a data center the size of tuson outside of tuson just to power their ai that would’ve increased the inability to stay alive outside in parts of arizona” is a genuine criticism. even “using generative ai teaches you not to learn how to do things yourself even when they’re difficult, devaluing necessary skills out of practice” is a genuine criticism when you look at the amount of people who think they are able of doing a difficult major when they couldnt write their own papers in high school.
but “ai is just bad because it’s bad” will convince no one and is a morally lazy position to take. about anything!
you need to know why reading someone’s diary is wrong if you want to learn about privacy and respect. you need to know why child sexual assault is wrong if you want to be able to help children form healthy age appropriate relationships. you need to know why capitalism is bad if you want to replace it with something else. you need actual concrete ideas and ideologies rather than “you should agree with me because i have the right vibe”
