Une affaire d’une extrême gravité a secoué Petah Tikva dans la nuit de dimanche à lundi. Un habitant de la ville, identifié comme G., âgé d’une quarantaine d’années, aurait été violemment agressé puis enlevé par trois jeunes hommes alors qu’il était descendu de son domicile pour laver sa voiture. L’intervention rapide de la police a permis de localiser la victime quelques heures plus tard à…
Terreur à Petah Tikva : un homme enlevé alors qu’il descendait laver sa voiture

I hope you got your well-deserved rest for the new year!!
My break was great! I went to Japan and San Diego, but all that traveling left me ILL 😭 And as soon as break ended, work and school ramped up, so I’ve been trudging through with coughs and a snuffy nose lol 💀
I agree, though. I LOVE the coziness of Nov/Dec, and I miss it haha. Ch. 44 is being written slowly and surely… I reread LOD over the break and realized I’m not authoring to my full potential, which means a total revamp!
Ask five people what LOD means in BIM, and you’ll probably get five different answers.
That’s because Level of Development isn’t just a number — it defines how reliable a model is for design, coordination, cost, and construction decisions. When LOD is misunderstood or poorly defined, projects often suffer from misaligned expectations, rework, and unnecessary coordination issues.
Each LOD serves a very specific purpose:
The problem? Many teams either over-model too early or under-model when accuracy actually matters.
We broke down LOD 100, 200, 300, 350, 400, and 500 in a clear, practical way—focusing on what each level actually delivers and when it should be used.

If you’ve ever wondered why a model “looked right” but still caused issues on site, understanding LOD is usually the missing link.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 🎄, Jarlaxle come and get your present now!! 🎁

very important addition

Confession:
“People in this fandom complaining about the lack of diversity and then suggesting apps like LOD as an alternative to RC always takes me out”
I loved writing those scenes! It feels so natural to write them together haha. Their vibes are just very ~mellow~ and ~introspective~ and ~thoughtful~
Idk why, but the entirety of act I is so autumn-coded (or winter-coded I guess). I think of LOD more and want to write LOD more during the latter half of the year
In Menzoberranzan, where a goddess and her priestesses reigned supreme, few female dark elves ever found it necessary to sell their bodies. Only a handful of the sick and infirm, dwelling in the most abject need, had ever stooped to such a degradation. Accordingly, one might assume that any male wishing to purchase intimate companionship would find his choice limited to these rare unappealing specimens or the females of one of the inferior species.
But that wasn’t quite the case, at least not if a male had a heavy purse. The reason was that, while they generally devoted their military efforts to fighting cloakers, svirfneblin, and other competing civilizations of the Underdark, drow cities on rare occasions waged war on one another. Once in a while, such conflicts yielded female prisoners.
The prudent, legitimate thing to do with such potentially dangerous captives was interrogate, torture, and kill them. That fact notwithstanding, Nym had on several occasions managed to bribe officers to give him their prisoners, whom he then smuggled into Menzoberranzan and down to the cellar of the Jewel Box.
Nym had gone to all this trouble based on the shrewd and well-proven assumption that a goodly number of Menzoberranyr males would pay handsomely for the privilege of dominating a female, and in his establishment, one could do anything one wanted with a captive. Nym would even provide a customer with a bastinado, a brazier of coals, thumbscrews … his only stipulation being that one must pay a surcharge if one left a permanent mark.
Since the brothel’s existence was an open secret, Pharaun wasn’t sure why the matron mothers hadn’t shut it down. On the face of it, it certainly seemed to encourage disrespect for the ruling gender. Perhaps they felt that if a male had a refuge in which to act out his resentments, it would make him all the more deferential to the females in his home. More likely, Nym was slipping them a substantial portion of the take.
From The War of the Spider Queen in just one of those things I find interesting and neat.

AHAHAHAH my favorite trope is a yearning man. Something about a man being in the trenches all desperate and longing is so *chef’s kiss*. You BEST know I’ll be inserting my fav trope any chance I can get 🤣
Chapter 44 is coming, don’t you worry! I’m so excited to share what goes down :D I haven’t had this much fun writing a chapter in a while (not to say writing isn’t fun, of course, but the past few chapters have been more on the dreary side lol)
I don’t make OCs with the intent of creating new dynamics but top of the list of Therapy AU dynamics would have to be me picking at Hrokr and Wulfgar’s dynamic and what it says about cultural ideals, hero worship, trauma, and curses of eternal youth.
