Danny Phantom AU where some other billionaire's company gets better employee ratings, so Vlad gets pissed off and competitive. Meanwhile, Danny & friends are enjoying the break from his nonsesnse & the occasional rants that Vlad calls the Fenton parents with.

News headline: Wayne Enterprises has best benefits in the country!

Vlad: bullshit. *gives better benefits and an almost-living wage* there I win.

Headline: Stark Industries to pay all employees a minimum $2/hr above living wage.

Vlad: that BITCH *matches SI payrates*. I need to win...hmmm.... *establishes 40% tuition reimbursement program*. Ha! Beat that!

Headline: Luthorcorp to start donating 1% of profits to environmental organizations

Vlad: Son of a... *1% matching to the environment, 1% to homeless shelters across the country, and 1% to emergency relief funds* Finally, I've won!

Headline: Wayne enterprises to start 100% daycare reimbursement under new CEO, Tim Drake!

Vlad: *demonic screeching* *matches daycare reimbursement and ups tuition reimbursement to 50% for all relevant programs.*

Headline: LutherCorp secretly donating funds to himself! In prison for tax fraud!

Vlad: Finally. I've done it. Best billionaire.

3 months later:

Headline: Stark Industries to offer paid internships with college credits!

Vlad: Oh COME ON!!!!

This goes on until *everyone* wants to work at WE, SI, or DalvCo. The pissing contests do not end there. No.

They escalate, much to everyone else's exasperation, enjoyment, or (in case of Republicans) horror.

Wayne Enterprises synthesizes insulin, sells for $25/bottle- undercutting major medical companies who sell for minimum $300/bottle.

Stark Industries pioneers new affordable mobility aids- like Rhodey's braces, for example.

Therefore, Vlad has to put *his* two-cents in and starts 3-d printing/cloning organs for (comparitively) little money based on the original person's dna to eliminate chances of rejection.

And THAT means they move onto the next thing- fixing homelessness, because surely if they solve *that* they can win. Only to find the anti-homeless laws are *so* strict they can't do much.

Vlad: I'm evil, but not that evil.

So 2 asshole billionaires- and Bruce & Tim- get together. Stark beats Trump and is president. Vlad wins a senate race. Bruce is forced (kicking and screaming) to run for congress- which he loses. And they start working on homelessness.

Give me a Sam screeching when a grown-ass dracula looking motherfucker floats into her room.

Vlad: stop screaming. Don't- why are you shooting me, I haven't tried to kill you in YEARS! Not the thermos, not the-

Later:

Look, just tell me how to fix this shit.

I just- give me assholes (and Bruce & Tim) viciously competing to make the world a better place.

(Okay so I know we all affectionately(?) call this place “hellsite” and joke about its garbage UI, but credit where it’s due: WE CAN FINALLY COMMENT FROM SIDE BLOGS NOW. I pretty much post entirely from side blogs and never use my main, so in the past, every time I commented on a post—which would display my main blog’s username and avatar—it was needlessly confusing, and I always had to add clarification of who was speaking. Now, if I want to comment as Frodo-With-Glasses, I can just comment as Frodo-With-Glasses! It’s great! Good update @staff I appreciate your efforts)

Youtube and TikTok: makes cooking seem easy, seamless, satisfying and fun, and it all takes less than 5 minutes.

Me trying it out: 2 hours later, twitching and shaking in the corner, every surface of the kitchen is covered in dirty pots and pans and there is nothing decent to eat at all

The cruelest thing Ursula K. Le Guin ever did was giving her protagonist a fantasy animal companion, and then kill it halfway through the first book.

gang I’m about to go insane over here cause Hunter’s name isn’t even a name. It’s just his purpose. He’s a witch hunter. That’s it. Belos didn’t even bother giving him a name.

#Even when he tries to declare himself a person by telling Luz he’s hunter and not just the golden guard #He’s still just saying his purpose as a tool #like fr I know everyone else already knows this but damn. Just occurred to me. #Noun moment I guess #the owl house #not lotr

Hey guys.

So, my best friend's dad died earlier this week. It was really sudden and we've got a lot of unexpected funeral costs to contend with.

She made a gofundme to try and pay for it, and if you have a couple bucks to spare we would really, really appreciate a helping hand.

If you can't donate then please don't worry about it - I've been there. But if you can... please do.

Thanks everyone.

You guys. I just saw a post saying that dwarves are religiously herbivores. Im intrigued. I never really agreed with Peter Jackson’s interpretation of dwarves (in any sense) but specifically with the fact that he portrayed dwarves ONLY eating meat? Like if they live in/under mountains, hunting is obviously not a very convenient way to get food. I always imagined that they were foragers and ate mushrooms? Idk, I would love to hear other’s thoughts on this!

Change.org petition to have the metal band Blind Guardian reconsider playing in Tel Aviv, Israel this June

As you probably already know if you follow me, I really fucking love Blind Guardian - and they're currently doing a world tour. Later this year, they want to play in Tel Aviv - something they originally wanted to do on October 11th, but rescheduled after October 7th.

I have just made a petition that I hope to e-mail to them if it gets some signatures, to ask them to reconsider performing in Israel in light of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people done by Israeli forces. Cultural boycotts are an effective thing, and multiple artists have already backed out of playing in Israel under pressure from their fans.

Sign and share! Every signature matters!

Family Obsessed Vlad AU

So Vlad's obsessions are Maddie and Family, right? (Personally, I think it's more Maddie & control, but hey)

Actually family obsessed Vlad. He's building the Dalv Co. empire, and one of the 16 year-old-interns shows up bruised and crying, and somebody is like poor (name), kicked out for (sexual orientation/identity, loss of parents, etc,), and Vlad's like 'I'm your dad now.'

He means it as a comforting joke. His obsession does not. Suddenly, he's actually parenting the intern. And then another. And then there's family day at work, and Vlad's all: this should be good for employee engagement. Plasmius is all: WE HAVE SO MANY FAMILY YES

It starts a running gag: dont let the boss near your kids.

Why? He'll adopt them.

By the time canon rolls around, he's fostered/adopted (officially or through 'surprise adoption') like 10 kids.

Sometimes this means:

Helping with money problems and getting visitation

Helping find (and fund) childcare

Actually just raising the kids himself (they tend to turn out a little...murderous. But remarkably well adjusted aside from that!)

Mentoring them or finding mentors

He takes one look at uncomfortable kids Jazz and Danny who are a little too skinny, and Danny has bruises, and- congratulations, you're my children now.

That's it. That's the show. Just Vlad trying to raise two kids who think he's evil. He goes through increasingly wacky hijinks to prove he is clearly a better dad than Jack Fenton.

(Bonus if he pulls surprise adoptions- aka kidnapping- and the kids don't realize it for like a week).

(Extra bonus if he's got like a huge number of single/divorced parents VERY interested in him & flirting all the time with NO idea. They'll say something outright suggestive, he won't pick up on it until kid #1, now in their 20s, outright tells him. Meanwhile, Vlad complains he can't get dates.)

Forever just obsessed with how Fitz keeps calling the Fool HIS Fool. Like I just go fucking feral. Who does that. “MY ___” that’s love. “MY [name]” THAT’S LOVE OKAY. Maybe he doesn’t know it consciously but that is just. MY FOOL. AND HE SAYS THIS MULTIPLE TIMES.
