Even though Amazon is talked bad about as an employer, they're the only viable full time entry level jobs available right now and part of the reason is because they put almost every industry out of business.

Another job viable for people, especially immigrants, disabled, and neurodivergent people that's being phased out is uber and taxi services. The self driving car is not only unsafe, it's actively taking jobs. I trust a human more than a self driving car (especially living in a coastal city with cliffs).

We need legislation to protect our jobs and automate industries that are dangerous for humans to do. I went to my local job center, do you know what they were hiring for? Coal miner. What century are we living in? Humans deserve safe and clean jobs. Have the robots mine the coal.

Look at this little guy, he yearns for the mines.

'Angel'- A Slimav Shower Encounter.

(Or how Mav broke Sliders brain with his booty)

For @theferalalycatonao3 @paxdracona @caystar13star and @calkale some more slimav for you!!! Hope you like it! It's just a little wip that I cant seem to finish so imma just go ahead and post it anyways hahaha! 💛💛💛

⚠️Warning slight NSFW!!⚠️

Navy men are not body-shy. Some can be more conservative than others, but mostly they don't care. You're gonna be crammed into a sardine can with several other people, for months at a time. Its inevitable that someone sees something. Mav himself had seen more than he wanted to on occasion, which was how he knew about Gooses particular birthmark and would never speak of the subject. But it also lead to him to finally getting a lock with a certain curly haired giant RIO.

Navy men are not particularly shy. And in this respect, Maverick is no exception. He looks good and he knows it. Another key factor is that Maverick has no shame. At all.

So, when Hollywood steals his towel while he's in the shower, he doesn't think anything of it, only smirks and whistles as he walks bare-assed naked up to Hollywood and slaps him upside the head in playful retribution. Hollywood doesn't even seem to register him and is gaping open mouthed somewhere down....oh.

Maverick blinks in realisation before rolling his eyes and snapping his fingers under Holly's nose to wake him up. Hollywood thankfully comes too, goes red as Gooses helmet once he realises what he had been doing and flees to his locker, not meeting Mav's eyes once.

Mav groans and rolls his eyes again before heading to its own locker to grab his spare towel. Only he bumps into slider. He tried desperately not blush at seeing Sliders bare chest while sidestepping the giant, only he finds himself with a looming Slider staring down at him blankly (again??), before a towel is gently ruffling his hair and then wrapped around his waist by large warm hands. Said hands are apparently attached to the giant that is Slider.

Oh. Okay then. Why not.

While still in the circle of Sliders massive arms, Mav looks up at him through his dark lashes taking in the riotous brown curls flopping onto his forehead cutely, as well as how soft and deep his dark eyes look, all concerned and concentrated on the smaller, dark-haired pilot in his arms. Mav got the sudden urge to smooth out the little crinkle in his brow and run his hands through those beautiful curls.

Mavs breath catches in his eyes when he meets Sliders eyes and sees the depth of care and passion he possess, looking down on him, he can't help how his lips part in a small gasp and he unconsciously licks them. Brown eyes flicker down to watch the movement of his tongue gliding over his dry lips, wetting them, before darting back to Mavs own bottle green eyes, watching attentively.

Distantly Mav becomes aware of how close they're standing, him in Sliders towel and Slider half-dressed with his jeans on. Their bare chests are close to touching and Mav resists the urge to lean closer to feel the warm heat of Slider against his skin. Sliders arms are still wrapped around him like a shield, resting lightly on Mavs waist, fingers curled around his hips and his thumbs rubbing lazy soothing circles onto the soft delicate skin of his hips, just above his sensitive adonis belt. Mav shivers.

Sliders eyes miss nothing and darken slightly at the movement, one of his large protective hands smooth over Mavs back and up to his shoulder blades, sweeping up and down, in a large caress across his back and leaving Mav aching for the warmth of his hands across his body again.

Slider leans down. Or maybe Maverick pushes up, knowing he's on his tippy toes and not giving a shit anyways. They meet in the middle, lips brushing together softly, slowly. A burning flame ignites deep in Mavs stomach and he moans quietly, stifling the sound even as his cheeks heat up at his own noise.

His noises only seem to fuel the taller however and Slider grips Mavs hip in one hand and draws him closer to Sliders chest with the other across his back, bending Maverick back slightly to get better access. Access that Mav gives freely, nearly melting into the strong hold around him, sighing and whimpering at the feel of Sliders tongue dancing with his. The towel is still somehow wrapped around his waist but Mav can feel it unravelling the longer Slider kisses him, and yeah, Maverick can relate to that.

Short of breath, Mav draws back to get his bearings, but the brunette simply changes course, licking and kissing down Mav's sensitive neck and heaving chest. Maverick slides his hands up the muscular arms around him and buries his fingers in the curls atop Sliders head and pulling slowly.

The gentle giant pauses for a minute, waiting to see if Mav is comfortable enough to continue, flicking his brown eyes up to peer into Mavs. Mav smiles down at him and nods to give his consent. Slider grins wolfishly and delighted, continues his path downwards, leaving little red marks and tiny bursts of pain, quickly soothed by a warm tongue leaving over the small love bites. Mav is now clinging to Slider to hold himself up, knees weak and feeling overwhealmed but needing more.

A groan fills the room and then a gruff voice beckons to Maverick.

"Angel".

(Let me know if anyone wants a separate mini fic on what Hollywood saw that made him blush so much hehehe, or an outsider fic from Hollywoodor Gooses pov..I have been thinking in it 💛💛💛)

Don't talk to me, I'm thinking about Clark Kent and the inherent tragedy of a weapon who only wants to heal

Peter and Lucy Pevensie

I LOVE that Peter and Lucy hold hands. It’s the cutest thing. He’ll always be there to protect her and he’ll do everything in his power to make sure of that. So he keeps her close. She reaches for him instinctively when she’s afraid, when she’s sad, when she’s happy. If she’s about to do something reckless she’ll grab his hand first. If you watch the LWW movie the scene in the end where they find the lamp post and go back to England, as she runs away, even though they’re adults, she still sticks a hand out behind her for him to take and follow her. And he does. He’s a little confused but he takes her hand and follows. And he always will. Because he’s her protector her entire life. And they both know it. And it’s beautiful.
