So a whole bunch of you liked my yutyrannus pic from eons ago, and a whole bunch of you followed me for (I’m assuming) my dinosaur art, so have some centrosaurus drawings! They’re all apart of my Dinosaur Park Formation story/project, and also probably my favourite ceratopsian.

A few simple words were all it took to set his soul ablaze, idly looking up from the smartphones' screen to stare at Jain. He doesn't bother in trying to hide the smile, rising up from the chair in their shared office.

It's a casual stride, slow and controlled, as the dealer closed the distance between them, raising a hand to caress the side of Jains face. The act of affection and the gentle touch lingers, trailing his fingers down the intricate contours of the werehyenas neck.

The gesture instantly turns possessive and dominant, tightening his grip upon his throat, emitting a soft exhale as he feels Jains pulse quicken and thrum under his grasp. Foolish begins to move forward, pushing and manipulating the shifter until he's backed him up against a metal table.

His blue eyes never waver from those golden orbs, slowly releasing his hold on the other.

"Strip down and lie back. I want to see the damage that's been done."

So like I have been seeing some Princely Zeldris and Meliodas like both running the Demon realm. And that got me thinking...

What if Zeldris and Meliodas team up once both get smitten and just murder their father...take his power and run the Demon realm together. Zeldris with Gelda by his side....Meliodas would have a hard time with keeping Elizabeth in the Demon Realm. But I'm like thinking Meliodas would be all for 'Kidnapping/Rescuing' Elizabeth from the Goddess Clan.

While the Brothers aren't cruel like their Father they are enough to put someone in their place.

Under the Brothers rule they were able to take out the supreme Deity and leaving alot of the Goddess Clan to scatter. So the Demons are pretty much running things.

HOWEVER not all is hunky doory! Elizabeth and Gelda can see things are going abit to far and seal the Demon clan with the help of some of the 10 Comandments, the Archangels, and the other races.

3,000 years later. Gelda and Elizabeth have been keeping watch over the humans and other races that have finally been able to flourish. Until Bellion manages to unseal the brothers. Wanting some special treatment for this task. Even spilling the beans on how it was Elizabeth and Gelda that 'betrayed' them. Zeldris and Meliodas don't belive him and start to think that their mates were in some sort of danger or something bad. Cause no way would their loves do such a thing....Right????

Ooh! The brothers letting their leadership get to their heads a bit, I see. But what exactly causes the girls to seal up their lovers? Are the brothers banning other races from entering the Demon Realm (if they could- with the miasma and all that). Or are they killing any trespassers or anyone who utters a word of hatred towards them.

The demon brothers when they finally wake up ask Bellion how long they've been asleep for, and who exactly sealed them away? He tells them that it was their own lovers who decided to seal them.

This is the secret Facebook group where women brag about the various ways they have physically abused their partners.

Graphic screenshots from the Bad Girls Advice Facebook page emerged on Thursday when a Domestic Violence support group publicly shared them.

The posts show women discussing domestic violence situations in detail after one member asked the other women what the most violent act committed against their partner was.

[..]

The confronting conversation was shared on Thursday by domestic violence support group the Black Ribbon Foundation Australia.

'And people wonder why we have a problem in this country,' it said.

'Ask yourself, had it been female victims being spoken about, would they have been so blasé?'

Facebook Quietly Reinstates ‘Bad Girls Advice’ After Bestiality Backlash

After an eventful weekend that saw controversial Facebook group Bad Girls Advice shut down ‘cos of an explosion of outrage over a post defending bestiality, the group has quietly – and inexplicably – been reactivated. 

[...]

The group’s caught shit for appearing to advocate spousal abuse, nonconsensual nude sharing and pile-ons that would see men hounded by hundreds of women for any number of perceived slights against a member. 

'Bad Girls Advice’ Whistleblower Talks “Pack Mentality” As She Cops Abuse

A day after notorious women-only Facebook group Bad Girls Advice was shut down, one of the whistleblowers who helped get the group removed has spoken to PEDESTRIAN.TV about copping a wave of abuse from former members.

Our source, who we’ll call Kate, flagged a post defending bestiality before midday yesterday. Since then, the group has been deleted by Facebook, and Kate has copped so much abuse that her account has been suspended – the result of angry former group members reporting her profile to the same platform that took away their forum. 

Kate says that the content and culture of the group had been getting worse for a long time, culminating in a toxic atmosphere where dissenting opinions would attract serious punishment, admins were afforded cult-leader status, and the 200,000+ members were told to “scroll on” if they saw anything that made them uncomfortable, rather than bringing it up for discussion.

Bad Girls Advice Facebook group shut down after bullying complaint

[...]

Until its downfall, the girls-only group had close to 200,000 members with ceaseless posts ranging from dating advice to dirty jokes and memes.

Started in 2016, it was sold as a place of female empowerment where women "feel free to release their inner sexual being".

But as it grew, it was also earning a darker reputation.

It became known for alleged online bullying and pile-on culture — an example of the tribal dynamics of internet sub-cultures.

Former members complained of lynch mob behaviour, saying some girls who turned against the group were spammed with hateful messages from other members.

The group thrived on the controversy, and was soon monetised, with thousands of dollars' worth of branded merchandise sold.

This annotated bibliography describes 343 scholarly investigations (270 empirical studies and 73 reviews) demonstrating that women are as physically aggressive as men (or more) in their relationships with their spouses or opposite-sex partners. The aggregate sample size in the reviewed studies exceeds 440,850 people.

==

The aim here isn't to show that women can be shitty too - obviously they can, to both men and women - but rather to point out two things in particular.

Firstly, that society has gotten to the point where even the mere unsubstantiated suggestion of violence can cost a man his career and everything he created, while a woman bragging about her own confessed guilt faces - and expects - no, if any, consequences. Worse, not only is this double standard so normalized and systemically entrenched that it's celebrated as "empowering," but when other women call out this behavior and hypocrisy, the perpetrator - that is, the person self-declared to be guilty of violent assault - then claims to be the offended party, and can summon an online pack of screeching jackals to punish and silence the traitor, who dares violate this normalcy and privilege.

DARVO: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.

“One of the things that is a classic trope of the religious bigot, is while they’re denying people their rights, they claim that their rights are being denied. While they are persecuting people, they claim to be persecuted. While they are behaving colossally offensively, they claim to be the offended party. It’s upside down world.“

– Salman Rushdie

Secondly, there's a classic feminist trope of men start all the wars, men are responsible for all the violence, wouldn't the world be more peaceful without the men? Here we have a microcosm, a societal structure run entirely by women, from the creator to administrators to moderators on downwards. And it turned into a complete shitshow where all the reasonable women were hounded and harassed by the mentally ill ones and ultimately had to just leave, or were booted out by the nutters. The whole thing blew up again and again, including people defending bestiality and scolding others for "kink shaming." Which is to say, despite every woman knowing this, more often than they will admit, women's worst enemy is often - but obviously not always - other women.

No, not every female-exclusive, -dominant or -lead group or organization descends into this. That's not the point. It's that, despite ideological assertions to the contrary, the results aren't better. Believers often insist that morality requires their god and their religion, and yet as the never-ending parade of Catholic child molestation and Protestant sexual assault scandals demonstrates, the results are not better, and often worse. Despite pretentions to the contrary, female spaces can be completely toxic, and aren't better.

If "toxic masculinity" is men's inability or refusal to break the tough, masculine façade, then "toxic femininity" might be women's inability or refusal to break the cone of silence around female intrasexual relationships and dynamics, lest it weaken the "us vs them" sisterhood. BGA is demonstrative of why.

Somehow it's still "tEh PaTriArChY's" fault though, surely. The "patriarchy" that somehow seems to benefit, excuse and encourage the world's worst, most mentally ill women, while glorifying violence against and villainizing the "right" kind of people. That is, men and the sane women who oppose this poison.

The pack reunited

I wouldn’t want this.

People leaving has been good,

Friendships ending a positive,

Any group I’d call a pack?

Well pack mentalities go bad;

Turn toxic, pile up, form rules,

And have hurt me by miles.

So I wouldn’t want a reunited pack,

Don’t want others to form again.

Leave found family at the door,

Ler me simply just ignore.

Of course I know it could be great,

Could brighten up the curse of fate,

But once burned, twice shy,

And I gave up on asking why.

I didn’t fit in so let me forget,

No pack needed, I’ll get myself set.

Teen Wolf 1x03/1x04

Nightmare!Allison has a hell of a low kick

Him turning is always so damn dramatic.

They don't even get a day off for murders?

Holy shit. They actually brought the Black girl from the pilot back. She even got a line again. I really want her and stiles to interact again.

Not Lydia being secretly smart. I know Holland couldn’t relate.

I know it's the werewolf shit but Stiles being that involved in Scott's dating life is suspicious (gay) as hell.

I do like Scott's relationship with his mom

The music is so loud

Cops leaving a crime scene unguarded. How big a town is Beacon Hill supposed to be?

Yeah i still don't buy Allison and Lydia as friends. They look like they can barely tolerate each other.

Is Lydia gonna sexually harrass Mr. Argent?

They're doing a great job enforcing this curfew /s

Knowing the show won't really acknowledge Kate raping Derek takes most of the tension from Derek's scenes with Chris away. Hopefully they'll at least acknowledge her killing his family

So hunters are just assholes to be assholes?

Must be a tiny town if Melissa can afford a house this big as a single mom (i was told the fandom has agreed she got it in the divorce)

I really wanna see the hale house before the fire. It looks like it was nice

Ok My Chemical Romance! Love me some turn around and die music during a fight

I hope they play Teenagers next. It would be appropriately on the nose for this show

3 episodes in Tyler Hoechlin is becoming a bit better

These episodes go by very fast when i don't press pause every 2 minutes out of embarrassment

I love that Melissa McCall, upon seeing her son's bedroom empty during a curfew, instead of checking if her son is in the house, just sighed, said "it's above me now" and moved on. I love that woman

Should we consider werewolves as a captive species since they adhere to the alpha, beta, etc pack shit?

Kate!???

Does this man know his sister's a pedophile? Cause i got beef if he does (he does not know)

Stiles is being weird about Scott fucking

Why is that man's first instinct when dying to go to the local high school? Again, being weird!

Jackson is entering the "find out" portion of this story. Finally.

This episode is surprisingly decent so far.

STAY AWAY FROM HIM GET A JOB!

Props to Jill Wagner because she is leaning HARD into her character being a creep. Looks like she understood the gravity of what Kate did more than the writers

I had to paus the episode for a couple hours cause Scott was taking his damn time gathering the damn bullet and hovering over Kate's pack he was stressing me out/pissing me off.

I hate when a show does this thing where everybody is dumb and does the stupidest thing possible to build tension that doesn't really feel like tension but just feels frustrating to watch.

The episode was doing so good up until now... at least as good as this show can.

Oh my god why is he so slow???

I swear to god this scene feels like it's 5 minutes long and not just because i took a 2 hours long break in the middle of it.

Pretty sure that's not how sepsis works... maybe that's how magic sepsis work.

Not they're already at the arm-cutting stage. How about you wine and dine a bitch first?

How is Scott even able to function? Like he has got to be the dumbest TV character i've come across outside of a sitcom.

i am stumped trying to figure out how he even survived long enough to get bitten

mind you, I have watched 7 seasons of Charmed OG and 1 and a half season of Charmed 2018, from the age of 10 up until now. I am rewatching Mutant X this month. I KNOW stupid fucking characters, I was shaped by them, and that boy still takes the cake

And I feel bad because I really like Tyler Posey, he seems like sweet guy who wants to do good and do his best but he just doesn't have the chops to elevate the godawful material he has to work with. At least not at that point in his career.

And I hate it because I want him to be successful and fulfilled and to be able to get out from the shadow of this show and do interesting things.

Damn him to hell for needing to be in his presence. It's not sane for someone to make a copy of their partners apartment key for a silent entry.

Yet here he was, unlocking the lock to step in, gently closing the door behind. He crinkled his nose when the metallic tang of dried sweat and blood assault his olfactory senses, tickling at the back of the dealers throat.

Julian should leave, knowing that this sort of behavior was disgusting, but he pressed on in a fit of delirium from the heroin in his system. The masked man followed the scent, sneaking through a dimly lit hallway until he reached the bathroom, peering through the eye slits to take in the bloody mess before him.

Jain is sprawled out within the bathtub in his own blood and left over viscera, his freshly healed chest rising and falling. It made Julian's wounds tingle under the bandages, shaking his head slightly before dropping a bag of fresh kill right in the tub.

The man grunts, taking to the tile to sit down, leaning his back against the wall of the tub, pulling out a pack of smokes. As Jain thrashed about from the sudden noise, Julian lights up a single cigarette to take a drag, smoke curls out from the mouth slot, and he watches it dance up towards the ceiling.

"I couldn't sleep...so I'm sharing a midnight snack."

Horror theme!

The Demon Brothers and Tristan has entered their Indura state. Link is in the nest minding his own business. Playing with his Spyro plushie. However some dumb humans that wanted to kill some Demons stumbled upon the boy. Not sure how or why a human child was there.

The boy hears that someone is behind him before turning to look at the armored intruders. Link hugged his plushie close to his chest. Starting to get alittle scared.

"Hey! It's OK little boy! Come on! We'll help get you outta here!" One of the men spoke as he tried to approach little Link. Link himself just shuffled away and tried to get more into the nest. He doesn't know these men. He doesn't trust them.

One final asked the question. "Hey kid! You know where the monsters are?" Link looked abit confused at them...before pointing his little finger to them. "Papa, Uncle, and Tristan aren't gonna be happy seeing all you here...

The men froze as they processed what the boy said. All while behind them a tail slithering down behind them. Abit of saliva drops on of the men's shoulders. He wipes it off with a look of disgust before they all hear a low Growl. Three shadows move in the back. And by the time they look back where the Boy had been. He was gone.

Link was fine. Getting a piggy back to a more secure spot from Indura Tristan. The distant sound of schemes being silenced and flesh ripping fading in the back.

The two get joined be a blood covered indura Meliodas and Indura Zeldris. Zeldris giving his kit and check up and making sure he's not been hurt. Just alittle scared as he clings to Tristan for a sense of safety.

I love this horror AU aspect with Indura bros!

Zelsris let's out a few rumbling purrs as Link shuffled over towards him, reassuring his kit that he's safe now, before he and Meliodas lick themselves clean of the humans' blood. They would go in the river to wash it off, but now Meliodas and Zeldris wouldnt dare leave the safety of the den. All three would stay around Link that night as he slept, clinging to his papa.

All three demons would be on high alert for the rest of their transformation, watching and listening for any signs of human hunters going their way.

to all of my dolls finding themselves:

originality is the "aesthetic" you are looking for. individuality is the "it factor" you are looking for. from your personality, pieces, hair, cadence of voice...even down to your favorite foods or special interests. you aren't supposed to change every aspect about yourself to be more palatable for everyone you meet. that actually makes you BORING!!!

"but so and so is doing this" "but what if people don't like it" ... so??? don't take people disliking your aesthetic as a sign that you need to do something different. like, of course they don't like it or have second thoughts - it's because THEY wouldn't do it themselves because it wouldn't go with THEIR given aesthetic. HELLOO??????

unless they are like minded, stop asking other people to weigh in on the things you CLEARLY like about yourself. especially if it's a core personality trait or interest. your LIFE isn't a group project. your LIFE is not a co-op game.

and yes... people will try to force you to assimilate and follow the crowd by speaking misfortune on your rebrand, your expression, your hobbies, your chosen path out of jealousy. however, that jealousy is lowkey unspoken respect for the fact you have the candor to go against homogeneity.

your authentic dedication to everything that makes you YOU is what will bring you the illustrious life you so fervently seek in the end...not some book a celebrity wrote or a youtube video. it's in YOUR DNA to be a star already in anything you want to do.

there isn't one tutorial on this world wide web that will help you if you don't realize you have the components within you first. there is NOTHING wrong with you!!! you are EVERYTHING that is right already!!!

NEVER conform to the way they think you should shine.

#thoughts #i cant stand seeing a pack mentality i hate seeing ppl shy out of who they are esp neurodivergents #while it is to be expected and is a result of our age group as well as cultural factors especially collectivism #i cannot help but reiterate how harmful it is for everyone to move as if they are the SAME PERSON! you are not so and so and they are not u #yall both just have the same hair or skin or smth you are still YOU hello #inspo is everything and dreams are a foundation BUT make it ur oWN #we all gotta start somewhere but golly gee! PUT THAT STUFF TO REST! #the obsession everyone has with humbling someone who is being themselves is old and tired! KEEP GOING I BELIEVE IN U DONT LISTEN TO THEM. #words i needed to hear when i was younger #ok rant over
