With the release of Thresh on 2xko, I've been thinking about him a lot more than usual... thus, I present a new plot bunny. I'd like to eventually turn it into a full fleshed fic, but who knows when that will happen (stares into the backrooms that is my fic-prompt spreadsheet)
Modern au (maybe a heavily modified history of Runeterra)
Erlok is a librarian (wowzer, big surprise, Morti do something different already)
As librarians are prone to be, Erlok is very protective of his books and how they are treated. Patrons returning a book with newly dog-eared pages immediately get listed on his hate list.
Oh, did I mention that Erlok's private life is kinky dom? And that his Dom name is Thresh.
Not the most upstanding act of professional, but I think Erlok would chat on various fetish forums when the shifts are slow.
Soo... Erlok is having an off-day at work when an unsuspecting patron visits the library for the first time. Instead of checking out a book, the patron is checked out by Thresh.
sketches from earlier this year but the group I play Nightreign with has come up with a ton of short hand for the enemies and bosses , a major one being "Zenos" for the Bell Bearing Hunter. We also purposely seek him out every game and have to fight him if he's on the map (we joke that's our main objective, the Nightlord is secondary)
anyway, I was tasked with bringing this vision to life and I locked in when I was hit with the vision of him having ptosis and scars from his mouth being sewn shut so
i think i saw a movie like this once
Ok I needed to know the story and
Guy makes a really stupid decision and gets in a car accident -> no real damage from accident but insurance goes up -> starts beating himself up over his stupid decision -> gets depressed -> starts to realize he's single and had crash been worse he'd die alone -> realizes he's never had a relationship or even a crush and starts wondering what he'd want out of a relationship -> starts to realize he doesn't really like girls so he thinks he must be gay -> realizes he likes girls and boys about the same amount, so he must be bi -> later realizes that "same amount" is none at all -> he's ace
he's so happy!!
i just remembered i made this january last year. happy pride
top 5 horror movies
-having a job
-not having a job
-applying for jobs
-the job market
-the concept of working my whole life
arguments that have zero merit, none, completely worthless, should not influence your decisions at all ever:
"this is how we've always done it"
"that's the policy"
"we've never tried that before"
etc
There's reasons why temporary traffic control measures exist. I will never skirt or excuse policies that are there for safety. Just because someone hasn't been hurt on the job before doesn't mean they don't need a hard hat.
Almost weekly I squabble with contractors wanting to skirt policies and rules for safety. I won't stand for anyone getting injured on the job.

some truths (Grimmauld Roommates AU)
The ruling will have enormous impacts for transgender residents in the state.
HOLY SHIT
"The Montana court separately declared that transgender people constitute a suspect class under the state's equal protection clause. In legal terms, a suspect class is a group that has historically faced such severe discrimination that any law targeting them must meet the highest level of judicial scrutiny to survive—the same standard applied to laws that discriminate on the basis of race. [...] The practical effect is sweeping: any Montana law that singles out transgender people will now face strict scrutiny, meaning the state must prove the law serves a compelling interest and is narrowly tailored to achieve it—a standard that laws almost never survive.
"Because the decision rests entirely on the Montana Constitution, it is insulated from the U.S. Supreme Court. Under the principle of adequate and independent state grounds, the federal Supreme Court cannot review a state court's interpretation of its own constitution, so long as that constitution provides more protection than the federal one. [...] What this means in practice is that Montana's transgender residents now have a constitutional shield completely independent of the Supreme Court of the United State’s decisions."
(emphases mine)
random PSA, I know a lot of people use duckduckgo as a Google alternative search engine, but it always kind of annoyed me when I was using it because it felt like No Name Brand Google
I have switched to using Startpage.com and vastly prefer it. for one thing, instead of displaying an "AI summary" at the top of the search results (unless you turn it off, yes I know), it displays the first paragraph of the Wikipedia article, with link, whenever it finds one that's relevant.
also a waaayyyyy better sense of design than duckduckgo
also private, European based, least annoying search I've used lately (RIP old "don't be evil" Google)
Keeping a list of Google alternatives just in case…
i have one of those, scraped from multiple different rec posts:
Search Engines
Infinity Search is an alternative search engine with a special focus on privacy
DuckDuckGo is a popular search engine for those who value their privacy and are put off by the thought of their every query being tracked and logged. Uses bangs, ![site] for in-page search (sells your data to microsoft and draws from fucking bing)
WolframAlpha is a privately owned search engine that allows you to “compute expert-level answers using Wolfram’s breakthrough algorithms, knowledgebase, and AI technology.” A data search engine.
Boardreader is a search engine for forums and message boards. It allows you to search forums and then filter down results by date and language.
Based in France, Qwant is a privacy-based search engine that won’t record your searches or use your personal details for advertising. Uses “&” as a bang search.
Another privacy-based search engine is Search Encrypt, which uses local encryption to ensure that users’ identifiable information cannot be tracked. Metasearch across multiple engines.
Offering unbiased results from several sources, SearX is a metasearch engine that aims to present a free, decentralized view of the internet. Can be self-hosted.
Gibiru’s tagline is “Unfiltered private search” and that’s exactly what it offers. Requires AnonymoX Firefox add-on for privacy.
Disconnect allows you to conduct anonymous searches through a search engine of your choice.
Swisscows provides fully encrypted searches to protect your privacy and security. Built-in violence/porn filter cannot be overridden.
MetaGer offers “Privacy Protected Search & Find” through its anonymised search. A plugin will allow it to be made a default.

https://search.marginalia.nu/ an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed. Use old-school searching rather than query-based for the best results.
https://www.mojeek.com/
https://wiby.me/ - It’s goal is to index as many personalized websites as possible, and NOT commercial sites.
https://4get.ca/ it works a lot like SearX, but honestly better. It doesn’t have its own index, but pulls from many others. I think it’s the best for research, since it allows you to search for answers from different indexes, is easy to configure, add free, and avoids censorship as much as it can.
