I was scrolling through Tumblr and came across a post of KNOWN PEDOPHILES ON TUMBLR (many of which have or want to rape actual children/minors)
Ingredients
2 large chicken breasts, cut into large chunks
12 oz small mushrooms, such as baby bella
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup bbq sauce
1/4 cup sake or mirin
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tbs ground garlic
Pour all ingredients except chicken and mushrooms into a pot with 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes
Put chicken and mushrooms into a container. Pour liquid over chicken and mushrooms, marinate overnight
Slide chicken and mushrooms onto skewers. Alternate between chunks of chicken and mushrooms, be sure not to load too much onto one skewer, 4-5 pieces of chicken for a large skewer is ideal.
Pour leftover liquid into a pot and bring back to a boil, you can add 1/3 cup BBQ sauce if desired. Reduce heat to medium and summer until thickened, about 20-30 minutes.
Brush sauce mixture over one side of skewers, broil at 500 degrees F (260 degrees C) for 8 minutes
Flip skewers, brush the other side, and broil for an additional 8 minutes
This dish goes great with some rice

childe, diluc, kazuha and xiao x gn!reader
hcs, sfw, angst, modern!au, cw: breakups, idk no comfort i think, 866 words
reblog pls unless u wanna lose ur 50/50 bc im jinxing u
note: love life goes brrr ig ๐ง kazuha is. is based from true events and very long bc i have favoritism. always rmb that some men r just shit tho ๐ diluc probs doesnt make sense but i hate writing for him in a way so idm. not proofread, dont mind any stupid errors
childe ;
it was a healthy relationship, sadly the timing for it wasn't exactly the best. you don't know how it happened, but things weren't working out for the both of you. it went wrong in many ways to the point you wonder how you get into a relationship. it wasn't a toxic relationship though, it's more like you both lost interest in one another and you both noticed it but went in denial. that's what caused you to have numerous arguments with childe, always yelling at each other when you call and in the end you'll just hang him up out of frustration with your feelings. you had second thoughts - had you truly loved him from the start? had he truly loved you from the start? you don't know at this point. all you know is that with one final call, you both ended things there and stopped communicating. it all went back to that one snowy night where you were still strangers to each other.
diluc ;
diluc was busy. he had always been, even before you met him he was already busy with many things. but he always made time for you, until lately he didn't. diluc always treated you right and you did the same for him, it's best to say that you two were in a very healthy relationship. so how could things just go wrong? maybe it's because you felt abandoned by him, or maybe it's because you were overthinking if diluc still held feelings for you. you refused to believe that you and diluc's relationship would go downhill. you two always fixed your problems with one another in the end - how is this situation any different from the past ones?
xiao ;
you were the one he trusted the most. the way you were always there for him always made him happy. but in this relationship, xiao was the problem. he didn't know how it all started but lately he felt like he wasn't deserving of you. hell, he even thought that you were just pitying him - but he knows you wouldn't be like that. how can your comforting words be an act of pity? so he believes that he himself is the problem. he's been dazing out recently, always seeming like he's in deep thought and when you ask him about it he'll say it's nothing. "liar." a voice in his head said. it took you a while to process what his words were on the day he finally decided to break up with you. you reached out to him, hand trying to grasp his but he pulled away, avoiding your gaze as you looked at him in hurt. you offered that you'll do better to understand him - to do better at loving him but he denied all of it. he wanted to have a break, to fix himself, to do better for you so he too can give back the love you give him. but in the end, you two really weren't meant to be in this time.
kazuha ;
you thought your feelings went platonic for him. but in truth you just fell out of love. kazuha did nothing wrong, you were the problem. he treated you well - always was by your side when you needed him and always would try his best to cheer you up if you're feeling down. you couldn't believe the fact that you fell out of love for him. so you insisted that your feelings just went platonic - you just can't accept how you fell out of love. kazuha noticed everything, how you've been acting distant lately, how you were getting a bit dry, everything was noticed by him when you didn't even realize it yourself.
and so you broke up, telling him how your feelings went platonic for him. "liar." you called yourself. but within at least 2 weeks later, you decided to say hi to him. you were nervous when you pressed send to a message that just said "hi" in your conversation with him. he was doing well thankfully, but you were a wreck. you hated how kazuha could still read you like a book, he asked if you were alright and you made him guess. and his guess was still accurate as ever - no, you weren't okay. you were a mess.ย
as if nothing happened between you, he offered for you to rant at him like how he used to, which made you feel bad. how could you fall out of love for such a nice guy? he deserves better than this but he probably doesn't know it. you decided to just go off about work, saying how you were given too much work to do when it recently just started. you didn't know what he would say, but it just hurts even more when he offered to help you with it.
why, why was he still the same? did the past 2 weeks already make him get over what happened between you? even if you tried to fix things with him, you doubt it'll be the same. maybe, you two just really didn't work out for this time. and maybe you two were happier if things just didn't go wrong.

whatโs the deal with retirement?
difference between insurances
Once youโve looked over all those cool links, I have some general advice for you on how you can have some sort of support system going for you:
You may decide to leave home for many different reasons, including:
wishing to live independently
location difficulties โ for example, the need to move closer to university
conflict with your parents
being asked to leave by your parents.
Itโs common to be a little unsure when you make a decision like leaving home. You may choose to move, but find that you face problems you didnโt anticipate, such as:
Unreadiness โ you may find you are not quite ready to handle all the responsibilities.
Money worries โ bills including rent, utilities like gas and electricity and the cost of groceries may catch you by surprise, especially if you are used to your parents providing for everything. Debt may become an issue.
Flatmate problems โ issues such as paying bills on time, sharing housework equally, friends who never pay board, but stay anyway, and lifestyle incompatibilities (such as a non-drug-user flatting with a drug user) may result in hostilities and arguments.
Think about how your parents may be feeling and talk with them if they are worried about you. Most parents want their children to be happy and independent, but they might be concerned about a lot of different things. For example:
They may worry that you are not ready.
They may be sad because they will miss you.
They may think you shouldnโt leave home until you are married or have bought a house.
They may be concerned about the people you have chosen to live with.
Reassure your parents that you will keep in touch and visit regularly. Try to leave on a positive note. Hopefully, they are happy about your plans and support your decision.
Tips include:
Donโt make a rash decision โ consider the situation carefully. Are you ready to live independently? Do you make enough money to support yourself? Are you moving out for the right reasons?
Draw up a realistic budget โ donโt forget to include โhiddenโ expenses such as the propertyโs security deposit or bond (usually four weeksโ rent), connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.
Communicate โ avoid misunderstandings, hostilities and arguments by talking openly and respectfully about your concerns with flatmates and parents. Make sure youโre open to their point of view too โ getting along is a two-way street.
Keep in touch โ talk to your parents about regular home visits: for example, having Sunday night dinner together every week.
Work out acceptable behaviour โ if your parents donโt like your flatmate(s), find out why. It is usually the behaviour rather than the person that causes offence (for example, swearing or smoking). Out of respect for your parents, ask your flatmate(s) to be on their best behaviour when your parents visit and do the same for them.
Ask for help โ if things are becoming difficult, donโt be too proud to ask your parents for help. They have a lot of life experience.
Not everyone who leaves home can return home or ask their parents for help in times of trouble. If you have been thrown out of home or left home to escape abuse or conflict, you may be too young or unprepared to cope.
If you are a fostered child, you will have to leave the state-care system when you turn 18, but you may not be ready to make the sudden transition to independence.
If you need support, help is available from a range of community and government organisations. Assistance includes emergency accommodation and food vouchers. If you canโt call your parents or foster parents, call one of the associations below for information, advice and assistance.
Your doctor
Kids Helpline Tel. 1800 55 1800
Lifeline Tel. 13 11 44
Home Ground Services Tel. 1800 048 325
Relationships Australia Tel. 1300 364 277
Centrelink Crisis or Special Help Tel. 13 28 50
Tenants Union of Victoria Tel. (03) 9416 2577
Try to solve any problems before you leave home. Donโt leave because of a fight or other family difficulty if you can possibly avoid it.
Draw up a realistic budget that includes โhiddenโ expenses, such as bond, connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.
Remember that you can get help from a range of community and government organizations.ย

Keep me updated? xx
in which you take care of a drunk, clingy kazuha.
when men had stormed into your home and obnoxiously chanted, โemergency, emergency!โ you hadn't expected the so-called urgent crisis to be...
โwhat are you doing...?โ you gazed at the inexplicable picture that was kazuha choking hugging a crewmate and at least five bulky giants attempting to pry him off, all of which were failing miserably.
โkazuha had one too many drinks,โ someone belonging from the crux fleet helpfully supplied, gesturing to the empty bottles of sake scattered on the table. โand he's become some sort of a hugging monster.โ
which, honestly, still didn't explain why you were brought here. โso... why did you call for me?โ
โplease take him home,โ begged another man, kneeling by your feet and tugging on your pants. โplease.โ
โhey!โ a voice chimed in warning, followed by a hiccup. you turned your head to face kazuha, who had finally let go of the traumatized man gasping for breath in the corner. โdon't touch,โ hic, โ[name]!โ he pointedly steered threats towards the beggar(?) before you, approaching with wobbly steps.
you caught him with your arms when he inevitably stumbled, too inebriated to fully function. โwoah there, are you okay?โ he clung to you tightly, pulling you down with his weight. โwho let him drink this much?!โ
โcaptain challenged him to a drinking match.โ
figures.
โarchons...โ you heaved a defeated sigh, hoisting up your giggly companion. you placed one of his arms to rest on your shoulders and held him up by the waist, sending an accusing look to a nearby crewmate. โwhy don't you take care of him?โ
โwe got our hands full with beidou.โ
again, figures.
appearing not too pleased by you neglecting him, kazuha roused awake, leaning far too close to your ear than necessary. โ[name]...โ he breathed rather than spoke, lips nearly brushing against your skin. โwhere are you taking me...?โ
blood rushed to the tips of your ears. โplease don't make it sound like i'm doing something illegal.โ
โi can't believe you had it in you, [name],โ said beidou, clearly intoxicated with alcohol. she took a swig from her jug and loudly announced, โtaking advantage of, hic, kazuha of all people!โ
your cheeks burned hotly, amplified by the booming laughter spreading across the tables. โi am not doing such thing!โ
kazuha whined, slurring his words. โyou... won't do anything...?โ
โi swear you're doing this on purpose.โ
you were absolute sure he was. tilting his head to your neck, stumbling conveniently, and whispering words to your ear in a calculated manner โ he had to be doing this to rile you up. either that or he had the natural makings of a player, with all the flowers that come out of his mouth instead of proper words, unknowingly charming innocent victims with his alluring voice.
โdon't be too rough with him, okay?โ one cooed in jest as you passed by him, your pace hastening with each teasing comment while dragging kazuha with you. โpoor guy's nearly unconscious.โ
โi'm not doing anything to him, so shut it!โ you retorted, not quite as intimidating as you wanted to be when your face was the same shade as a ripened apple.
โboo, coward.โ
โno chickening out!โ
โdear archons, please give me patience...โ you bit on your bottom lip, deciding to stay silent and cut off the pointless conversation once and for all.
โ[nameeee]...โ kazuhaa drawled out, tripping on his own feet. you yelped and barely kept your balance.
โwhat is it this time-โ you risked a glance at him, groaning in irritation, and you immediately pulled back your head when your face was closer than intended and you'd just brushed noses. goddamn it.
โpay attention to me!โ he demanded as a bratty child would, except a child wouldn't stare at you so deeply and pepper your face with kisses as a means to annoy you.
โwhat- no- stop moving around!โ
โget a room!โ
โshut up!โ
getting pushed back to the sofa as soon as you arrived in your house wasn't the last thing you expected to happen, but you were plenty caught off-guard.
โkazuha...โ you sighed, effectively pinned down to the couch with him looming above you. his face was buried to the space beside your head, unrelenting to rise. โget up. i have to take care of you, so let me go. you need water to sober up.โ
โdon't want to.โ he stubbornly nuzzled his head against your neck for emphasis.
โthis kid...โ you exhaled exasperatedly. your fingers ran through his hair, loosening his ponytail. โplease? you're crushing me.โ
you felt him pause, considering the potential harm he may cause.
even in his terribly drunken state, his childish tendencies came into a full halt and he obediently rose from his position, though the pout on his face was apparent.
โthere, good boy.โ you praised and sat up, pleased with his docile behavior. โdo you feel sick? need to throw up? i can get a few more pillows.โ
โ[name] is enough.โ
โthat's sweet, but i'll get seriously angry if you throw up on me.โ
โi won't throw up...โ his hand inched towards yours, shyly playing with your fingers. โi promise.โ
fuck, he's adorable.
still, you liked to think you had self-discipline. you won't let yourself get swayed by a pretty face.
โwell, what do you want to do then? feel like sleeping? it's late at night, after all.โ
he sheepishly glanced at you, looking with a silent plea. โ...stay with me?โ
you take that back.
โyou know what? fine.โ you tugged him towards you and fell on the cushions, wrapping him in a hug. โfriends cuddle all the time. this is fine.โ
yes, most certainly. this was quite the intimate act, but not totally exclusive to lovers. you chanted that over and over again to convince yourself, belatedly ignoring the fingers softly tracing patterns on your skin that seemed to stray off the levels of platonic.
โwhat are you trying to do, really...โ you groaned, sanity escaping you. kazuha's expression remained vacant, unapologetic for his touchy nature.
โcan i kiss you?โ
kill me now.
โwhat if i say no?โ
you wouldn't, of course you wouldn't. kazuha knew that too, that's why he didn't flinch and proceeded as if nothing happened. he reached his hand to your face, tracing the edge of your chin.
โwould you?โ
you stayed silent, and kazuha takes it as his cue.
his lips pressed gently to yours, relishing in the plush softness. your heart picked up its pace, thudding loudly in your chest, and it only raced faster when you felt the sudden sweep of his tongue on your bottom lip, prodding for permission. you stiffened considerably, but you let your eyes close and you lose yourself in the sensation, reciprocating the kiss and fingers grasping on his shirt for purchase.
you were momentarily surprised by his abrupt shift in position, his hand relocating to the back of your neck to pull you impossibly closer, and when you open your eyes, you see pools of red, admiring each expression you make.
โyou-โ you pulled away, startled into wiping away at your mouth. โdon't open your eyes...โ
his eyes crinkled at the edges, mirth warming his gaze. โsorry, i couldn't help but get curious.โ
you grumbled incoherently, tasting sake on your tongue. โso? when the hell did you get sober?โ
at first, he stared at you blankly, processing your words. then his lips stretched into an abashed grin, bringing his hand to shyly rub the back of his neck. โah, i've been found out?โ
