meidasnews.com/news/all-maj... In the age of constant attention, few things hit harder than no attention all. Especially for the biggest media hog there is. Following Trump’s ban of CNN, MSNow, and Politico’s Whitehouse press coverage, the big five news networks are turning off their cameras.

I don’t want a machine that thinks for me. What I do want: Music that I own. A printer that works. And silicone ice cube trays. …Seriously, why did it take us this long to invent silicone ice cube trays?

Husband: Minding his own business. My 6-year-old, apropos of nothing: I have good news and bad news. Him: Yes? 6yo: The good news is, I’m still gorgeous. Him: Ok. What’s the bad news? 6yo: My shirt is sticky. I wish you all the confidence of my 6-year-old, even when your shirt is sticky. 😆

Dear medical community. There isn’t something wrong because my weight is like this. My weight is like this because there’s something wrong. That’s why I’m here, a**hole. Stop putting the blame on your patients. We’re already doing our damndest to stay alive.

What everyone gets wrong about Romeo & Juliet
It's not about the perils of young love. It's not about them at all. It's about the consequences of hate.

#questpit #Q #A Jeremiah 1328 Erotic Urban Fantasy What does it take to get a man to bow to a woman? Welcome to the Garden Here: 🌶️Your anonymous fantasies are real 🌶️The only sin is violating consent 🌶️The gods are hiding 🌶️We write our own creation story I’m Jeremiah, and I work in the Garden.
Image of a person with a snake. Image of fire. Title reads: Jeremiah 1328. Text reads: Adult. Erotic urban fantasy. Metasmut. Heavy spice. Plot twists. Glowing tattoos. An outlandish world in the middle of Vegas. A work of fantasy about the work of fantasy. Gender script flipping and religious deconstruction. Allegorical plot and complex characters over 30. Welcome to the Garden. What if your favorite book boyfriends had a boss and a paycheck?Background image of garden. Image of Want by Gillian Anderson. Image of Priest by Sierra Simone. Image of American Gods on Starz. Image of Lilith by Nikki Margery. Title reads: Jeremiah 1328. Text reads: The garden is an all-male brothel and the crown jewel of Eden, the only completely X-rated, adult only casino in Vegas. For thirteen years Jeremiah has devoted his nights to bringing women’s (and some men’s) fantasies to life. It’s paradise, or it was. Until one of his coworkers suspiciously disappears. Until he’s visited by a fiery vision of an otherworldly woman who calls his name. Until a client he can’t stop thinking about asks him one simple question. What do you want? Jeremiah 1328 is a spicy, irreverent, sex-positive, rewriting of the creation story where the erotic is rebellion, sin is a myth, sex work is real work, fantasy is religion, and in order to build a better world we must imagine one first. What’s it like in the garden? Find out soon at a substack near you.

#questpit #Q #A What does it take to get a man to bow to a woman? Welcome to the Garden, an all-male brothel in Vegas. For years Jeremiah has devoted his nights to being a fantasy in someone’s paradise… Until a coworker disappears, a woman appears in a vision, and a client asks: What do you want?
Image of person with snake. Image of fire. Title reads: Jeremiah 1328. Text reads: Adult. Erotic Urban Fantasy. Metasmut. High heat and glowing tattoos. An outlandish world in the middle of Vegas. Layered allegorical story with twists and turns. Gender script flipping and religious deconstruction. Complex characters over the age of 30. Welcome to the garden. What do you want?Background image of a garden. Image of Want by Gillian Anderson. Image of Priest by Sierra Simone. Image of American Gods on Starz. Image of Lilith by Nikki Margery.   Title reads: Jeremiah 1328. Text reads: What’s it like in the Garden? Well, what if your favorite book boyfriends had a boss and a paycheck? Here, the anonymous fantasies of Want have a place. Here, the only sexual sin you can commit is violating consent (and you will regret it). Here, the gods walk among us like the assholes they are. Here, we write our own creation story. The new Garden of Eden. Coming to a Substack near you.

#questpit #Q #A If the anonymous fantasies of Gillian Anderson’s Want had a place. If everyone’s favorite book boyfriend had a boss. Welcome to the garden, where Jeremiah spends his nights bringing fantasies to life. Maybe it’s paradise? It’s Metasmut, with glowing tattoos. It’s Jeremiah 1328
Image of person with snake. Image of fire.  Title of book is Jeremiah 1328. Remaining text reads: Adult. Erotic urban fantasy. Metasmut. Heavy spice. Layered allegorical plot with complex characters. Gender script flipping and religious deconstruction. American gods + want + priest + Lilith. Welcome to the garden. Background image of garden. Side: The pitch. Text reads: The garden is an all-male brothel and the crown jewel of Eden, the only completely X-rated, adult only casino in Vegas. For thirteen years Jeremiah has devoted his nights to bringing women’s (and some men’s) fantasies to life. It’s paradise, or it was. Until one of his coworkers suspiciously disappears. Until he’s visited by a fiery vision of an otherworldly woman who calls his name. Until a client he can’t stop thinking about asks him one simple question. What do you want? Jeremiah 1328 is a spicy, sex-positive, rewriting of the creation story that comes from the position that sex is rebellion, sin is a myth, and in order to build a better world you must imagine one first. Background image of a woman’s eye. Slide: What it is. Text reads: If the anonymous fantasies of Gillian Anderson’s Want had a place… If everyone’s favorite book boyfriend had a boss… What can you expect? An outlandish world that’s completely plausible and oddly familiar. Heavy spice. Witty banter. Found family. She has more power. Nothing is as it seems. Metasmut…and glowing tattoos. What is metasmut? It’s self-aware. It’s a celebration and critique of the genre, using the genre. It’s a work of fantasy about the work of fantasy. This novel not only celebrates fantasy but asks, what’s it like to be one?Background image of woman biting into an apple. Slide: what it isn’t. Text reads: this is a story about… and then everything after those words Is crossed off: A powerful man. Friends to lovers. Enemies to lovers. Love triangles. Forced proximity. Rags to riches. Vampires. Werewolves. Royalty. Alpha/beta anything. Happily ever after. Virgins. Pregnancy. Age gaps. Arranged marriages. Fake relationships. Small towns. Love at first sight. Slow burn. Fast burn. Anyone under the age of 25. Men that are random sex gods for no reason. Monogamy. Heteronormativity. Possessiveness. A rescue narrative.

ICE is not “poorly trained.” They are doing exactly what they were trained to do. Dehumanize. Terrorize. Harm. The last thing we need is for them to be better at it. Abolish ICE.
