(texting my dick guy) we gotta have sex rn i just blogged

Kara is at a crossroads, and one road leads towards Clark and one leads to Lobo. Or rather, one path leads to embracing the responsibility of the life and powers her parents gave her, and the other is continuing to drink her life away, not caring about anything or anyone but her and hers.

Lobo is immensely powerful, and the last of his planet. Just like Kara. And when we meet him, he’s passed out drunk in a bar, oblivious and uncaring of violence and exploitation around him. Just like Kara was trying to be when she first met Ruthye.

Lobo is Kara’s future if she gives up on trying to be good. Drunkenly stumbling through the galaxy not helping anyone or anything and only caring about herself. Maybe not mindlessly cruel, but not kind or good or caring of the pain of the people around her.

It’s why they both get Ruthye’s spiel, it’s why Lobo’s whole introduction mirrors what Kara was just doing demanding to know about the Brigands, it’s why they’re both “the ditz from the bar”, it’s why they both have the gag with the space suit collar.

It’s why Lobo crops up each time Ruthye and Kara are faced with choices, sometimes acting as a devil on their shoulders, sometimes just a big lurking ominous warning of their bleak future if they make the wrong choices. It’s why Lobo says “let Ruthye have her revenge”, uncaring of how the violence might haunt Ruthye for the rest of her life. He’s a big constant reminder why Kara cannot let this thirteen year old girl be consumed by violence, and of who her parents didn’t want her to be.

Lobo is Kara’s foil and shadow.

Apparently controversial opinion, Supergirl was a good movie. It wasn't perfect but I'd give it a solid 7-8 out of 10.

First it’s planning their meet-ups months ahead. Shane has time to plan his outfit, do a pre-workout, and complete his prep routine. When he’s hosting, the temperature is perfectly set, lights low, fresh towels set out on the counters. When Ilya’s hosting or a hotel, he builds in time to do everything he needs beforehand.

Once they’re married, that changes. Living together means things can be a lot more spontaneous (which he loves) but he also likes to know The Plan™️.

And once they’re married, Shane has no problem asking for what he wants so he can plan out his day and routine. It’s not particularly sexy, but he guesses that’s married life.

“Ilya?”

“Hm?”

“Do you want to eat me out after the Canada match tonight?”

They had both been rooting for Canada at the world cup - Ilya even got them jerseys.

Ilya chokes and Shane frowns at him. “You okay?”

“I - just - what?”

“Well I’m going to do a full shower after my physio session with Amelia - I should be done by the time the Canada game starts. Oh - and I meant to ask if you liked those new frozen meals Lyn brought over. They’re a new brand.”

“I - yes, please Shane if I ever don’t want to eat you out, I have been replaced by aliens.”

“Okay, cool. And the meals?”

“Gross,” Ilya said. “But normal gross.”

~*~*~*~

“Ilya?”

“What?”

“Can we fuck on the couch tonight? With the fire going?”

Ilya grit his teeth and for a second Shane thought he would say no.

“Of course.”

“Maybe around 8? I bought 2 hour logs and the fire needs to be completely out by bedtime.”

“Okay.”

~*~*~*~

“Ilya!”

“Shane?”

“Look at your messages! I want to try that position. Maybe after we get back from our afternoon skate?”

~*~*~*~

“Ilya?” Shane asked through his cars bluetooth. Ilya was cooking and keeping him company on the phone as he drove back from an optometrist appointment. Much to his husband’s (fake) disappointment, his slight nearsightedness still didn’t need glasses for anything besides reading comfortably.

“Hm?”

“Did my package get delivered?”

“A package did. I put it on side table for you.”

“Can you go ahead and open it? I wasn’t sure what size to get so I got a few options. I want to try them this weekend - maybe Saturday? If they don’t fit, I’ll need to do another order tonight for 3 day shipping.”

He heard Ilya take a deep breath. He hated to give him another thing to do on top of making dinner, but he wanted to make sure they had the right sizes before they wanted to use them.

~*~*~*~

“Hey Ilya?” Shane said quietly, so the other people at the stuffy fundraiser couldn’t hear.

“Yes?” Ilya, his hand coming up to run through the back of Shane’s hair.

“I’m exhausted. Can we do shower blowjobs when we get home tonight?”

Ilya hand stuttered in his hair. Shane hated to disappoint him but he was too tired for his prep routine, his post routine, and cleaning the sheets. Or even getting up for Ilya to do it. Shower blowjobs had excellent clean up time and he could fall right into bed afterwards.

“That sounds perfect,” Ilya said, a little roughly.

~*~*~*~

Shane was going to kill him. Murder him. Like a sniper - out of the blue, at any given moment, Shane might call out to him all softly and then ask for hottest sex imaginable (all sex with Shane) AND THEN plan it for later, leaving Ilya incredibly worked up.

The worst part was Shane did not even know he did this to him - for Shane, it was just planning - run at 6, breakfast at 8:15, workout at 8:30, shower at 10, fuck husband at 10:45, off ice training at 12:15, etc. It drove Ilya insane.

a (moderately) easy brownie recipe for chocolate loving regressors! 🍫

note: as easy as these are to make, they do require using the oven, so make sure to safely use the oven when taking them in and out, or ask someone for help!

please do not be intimidated by the length or wordiness of the post! i just feel the need to overexplain

full disclosure this isn’t really a “recipe”, it’s a box mix with substitutions and add ons to make it waywayway better than average brownie mix!

ive been baking for a long time now and have made this many many many times and its always a hit, so if you need any credentials….. yea

what you’ll need 🥚

your brownie mix of choice

melted butter or margarine (amount dependent on your box mix)

milk (amount dependent on your box mix)

eggs (amount dependent on your box mix)

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

1 tablespoon espresso powder (optional)

other add-ins of your choice (optional of course)

if you’re more familiar with baking, feel free to mess around with different amounts, but im keeping this simple with safe amounts!

substituting box mix ingredients 🥛

like i said, use your favorite brownie mix! but for the sake of simplicity and instructions, ill use the betty crocker fudge brownie mix for this recipe

the recipe says to use 1/2 cup of oil and 3 tablespoons of water, but in order to get the best results, we’re going to use melted butter or melted margarine instead of oil, and white milk instead of water! the number of eggs will stay the same

to break up the block of text,

for this box mix we’ll need 1/2 cup of melted butter/margarine, three tablespoons of milk, and two eggs!

mixing the batter 🥣

step… zero lol: preheat your oven, to see what temperature you’ll need see the next section

step one: one stick of butter or margarine is 1/2 cup, so for this recipe, take one stick and put it in a bowl, then microwave for 1 minute, afterwards put it in the fridge for only 3-5 minutes, to avoid it becoming solid again

step two: put your box mix in a large mixing bowl, then add your milk and eggs, once your butter/margarine is melted down and cooled, add it in too

step three: add in your salt and vanilla, and give it a mix, but if you have other things to mix in, don’t mix it completely yet!

step four: add your chocolate chips and/or espresso powder in this step if you’ll be using them, you’ll also put in your other add-ins, and continue to mix, but be careful not to overmix! it should look slightly grainy and not completely smooth

assembly and baking 🕑

the bake time and oven heat will also vary depending on your mix and your pan size! these are the instructions for our mix

for dense and fudgy but not too raw results, i try to go for a lower mid range on the times, but if you prefer a loose brownie or a cakey brownie, feel free to bake on the lower or higher end, or maybe even a little less or a little more (just don’t go crazy and risk burning them!)

pour your brownie mix into a well sprayed or buttered pan, put some chocolate chips or desired add-ons on top if you’d like, and put it in the oven for your needed time!

this step isn’t at all required, but after taking them out of the oven i like to SLAM them on the counter a few times, this levels them out

afterwards, leave them sitting on the counter for AT LEAST 30 minutes! things continue to bake for several minutes after they’re out of the oven!

after the wait, there’s nothing left to do than cut into them and enjoy!

ideas for variations 🌈

brookies - use cookie dough (premade and homemade are both fine ofc) and layer it in the brownie pan during assembly however you’d like (or use brookie box mix!)

peanut butter brownies - you can either accomplish this by microwaving peanut butter for around 30 seconds then swirling in spoonfuls to the batter once in the pan, or by using peanut butter chips!

s’mores brownies - line up the bottom of your brownie pan with graham crackers before pouring your batter, after you pour your batter add marshmallows to the top!

caramel brownies - you can accomplish this via adding caramel sauce to your batter, swirling in caramel sauce to the batter in the pan, or adding caramel chips to the batter (or you can use salted caramel brownie mix!)

cosmic brownies - this one is a little more difficult because you’ll have to make a chocolate ganache, but the baking process will be the same, then afterwards you’ll spread the ganache on top and sprinkle on rainbow candy chips!

trashcan brownies - sweet and salty lovers, this is for you! mix potato chips, butterscotch chips, pretzels, m&ms, or other desired add ins to the mix and on top

i love how this theme recurs throughout the film, with ruthye begging kara to let her kill krem: "i'm ruined anyways". and in that moment, kara realises what she's, unknowingly, dropped onto ruthye; the thought that ruthye, in having something (her family, in this case) torn from her without her consent, is forever adulterated, tarnished. the way that when women are sexually assaulted, they are adulterated by society. so kara is quick to fight that, realizing the weight of her words. i think the power in this sort of feminist narrative is kara's understanding that she is unintentionally treating ruthye as she treated herself, and finally seeing the flaws in those self-destructive modes of thought. similar to how all women must unlearn misogyny in order to love ourselves.

happy new year -------------_--------------------
