Background: Immunotherapy has a significant effect on the treatment of many tumor types. However, prostate cancers generally fail to show significant responses to immunotherapy owing to their immunosuppressive microenvironments. To sustain progress towards more effective immunotherapy for prostate cancer, comprehensive analyses of the genetic characteristics of the immune microenvironment and novel therapeutic strategies are required.
Methods: The transcriptome profiles of patients with prostate cancer were obtained from GEO and processed with the TIDE algorithm to predict their responses to immunotherapy. Next, the significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the responder and non-responder groups were identified and used to compute the co-expression modules by WGCNA. Then, co-expression networks were constructed and survival analysis was applied to hub genes. Finally, drug candidates to alleviate immunosuppression were filtered in prostate cancer using GSEA based on hub genes.
Results: In total, we identified 2758 significant DEGs and constructed 16 co-expression modules, seven of which were significantly correlated with the immune response score. In total, 133 hub genes were identified, of which 13 were significantly associated with prostate cancer prognosis. Co-expression networks of hub genes were constructed with KMT2B at the center. Finally, six candidate drugs for prostate cancer immunotherapy were identified in PC3 and LNCaP cell lines.
Conclusions: We obtained datasets from multiple platforms, performed integrated bioinformatic analysis to identify 133 hub genes and 13 biomarkers of an immunotherapy response, and six candidate drugs were filtered to inhibit the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, to ultimately improve patient responses to immunotherapy in prostate cancer.

What to Do When You Suspect Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse happens more than you probably realize. It is difficult to predict exactly how many instances of elder abuse occur in North Carolina nursing homes every year, because most cases are never reported. The National Center on Elder Abuse estimates about one in ten nursing home residents become victims of abuse. To protect your loved ones, it is important to be aware of the signs of abuse and neglect and take action when necessary.
Recognize the Signs of Nursing Home Abuse.
The five types of abuse most likely to occur in a nursing home are: physical abuse, neglect, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and financial abuse.
- Physical abuse of nursing home residents happens at the hands of other residents as often as it comes from cruel caretakers. Unexplained injuries, pain, restraint marks, or sudden onset of a mental or physical impairment may indicate physical abuse.
- Neglect is the most common form of nursing home abuse. The signs include unclean living conditions, bed sores, dehydration/malnutrition, and unwashed appearance. Residents may also fall and injure themselves if left alone for too long.
- Emotional abuse includes yelling, intimidation, humiliation, and social isolation. A victim of emotional abuse may show abrupt personality changes, signs of depression, angry outbursts, and/or social withdrawal.
- Sexual abuse should be suspected if the individual develops genital rashes, bleeding, or symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases.
- Financial abuse, the exploitation of an individual’s resources, may be happening if you notice unpaid bills, missing valuables, suspicious charges on credit and bank accounts, changes to a will, or signs of identity theft.
Call a North Carolina Elder Abuse Lawyer.
If a loved one was killed or injured in an abusive or neglectful nursing home environment, you may be able to seek compensation for the damages you have suffered. It is important to reach out to an experienced elder abuse lawyer as soon as possible. A qualified attorney will be able to advise you on a course of action and the strength of your claim. Every state has a statute of limitations for personal injury or medical malpractice claims. In North Carolina, a lawsuit must be filed within three years of the last instance of abuse. Filing a lawsuit and building a case takes time, so do not delay.
Contact the nursing home abuse attorneys at McAllister, Aldridge & Kreinbrink, PLLC today to request a free initial consultation.

Community panto leaves audience in stitches
ACTORS from across Leigh Park and Warren Park staged a rip-roaring version of ‘Snow White’ as their annual pantomime for this year.
Hundreds watched across four performances as the Leigh Park and Warren Park Community Panto Players told their version of the classic story. They packed out St Clare’s Church in Warren Park, which was converted into a theatrical venue once again.
A cast of more than 35 local residents of all ages entertained their friends and neighbours with physical comedy, outrageous costumes and gags aplenty. The vicar, the Rev Jonathan Jeffery, became the pantomime dame, appearing as Dame Dotty Dumpling, who was the cook for the baddie Queen Esmeralda.
The story took in snow fairies, woodland sprites, princes and princesses – and substituted seven outlaws for the seven dwarves that appear in other versions of the story. And cast members staged ambitious dance routines to Michael Jackson’s Thriller and Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now, as well as the now-traditional rendition of Take That’s Shine at the climax of the play.
The church has staged a pantomime for the past few years, excluding those affected by Covid. Last year they staged Jack and the Beanstalk and in 2019 it was Dick Whittington. They also performed Aladdin and Cinderella in previous years.
The script for Snow White was put together by the Rev Jonathan Jeffery, and his wife Carolyn Owens directed, with all three of their children in the cast. Their philosophy is to create a play that involves as many people from the local community as possible, on stage and backstage, to help cement community spirit. They also aim to create an inexpensive, local night out, in contrast to some of the larger, more professional Christmas productions.
The cast and backstage crew had been rehearsing since September, and staged four performances over the weekend of December 1-3.

Anyone who’s been to the zoo has considered the possibility that once all the visitors and the zookeepers go home the animals come out from their enclosures and talk about the day. And so while Frank Coraci‘s Zookeeper is kind enough to show us what that fantasy looks like it isn’t kind enough to show us much else.
In Zookeeper Kevin James plays Griffin Keyes who’s so in love with his girlfriend Stephanie (played by Leslie Bibb) that he doesn’t realize she’s terrible until he proposes to her and she says no because she doesn’t like his job. After the breakup Griffin focuses on his work and is totally aware of how he wishes he had someone in his life to care for him the way he cares for the wildlife at the Franklin Park Zoo. When the animals (being the astute creatures that they are) notice how badly their favorite zookeeper has been feeling since the demise of his relationship they decide to break their vow of silence to show their appreciation for him by sharing all the tips and tricks that have helped them all get mates. The imparting of this knowledge paves the way for Kevin James to regurgitate onto the audience all the talent for physical comedy he’s accumulated over the course of his acting career and it means Griffin spends the majority of the movie rubbing his back against a tree like a bear or peeing on a tree like a wolf because he thinks his ex-girlfriend will take him back if he asserted his dominance more.
One of the more skillful things the film does is give each of the animals their own personalities in a relatively short period of time and credit should be given to the actors who voiced them. Sylvester Stallone’s Joe the Lion was the leader of the group and his frequent lover’s quarrels with Janet the Lioness (voiced by Cher) will particularly resonate with parents. Adam Sandler’s Donald the monkey delivered some nice one-liners and unapologetically bragged about his opposable thumbs. Judd Apatow Maya Rudolph Jon Favreau and Faizon Love also provided worthy comedic contributions to the animal group but it was Nick Nolte’s role of Bernie the gorilla that particularly stood out. After an incident with an abusive zookeeper (strangely played by Donny Wahlberg) where Bernie gained the reputation of being dangerous he was extricated from his beautiful and open enclosure and dropped down into a cement pit to be punished over a misunderstanding. But even though Bernie was out of site and otherwise inaccessible to the zoo’s patrons Griffin didn’t forget about him and worked arduously to convince him that not every human is cruel by putting a yellow polo shirt on him and taking him to T.G.I. Fridays. Though completely random and almost irrelevant the sentiment was very close to nice.
But the movie’s biggest problem isn’t the fact that its animals talk or that Griffin listens to them without realizing he’s trying to win back a human by acting like a wombat. It’s that because Griffin’s first love Stephanie was a bad person filmmakers were burdened with concocting a new love figure for him (because like all protagonists he’s supposed to rediscover his self-worth and self-respect after it has been misplaced). The director acknowledged this challenge by manufacturing Rosario Dawson’s character Kate the eagle expert/veterinarian. Kate’s close proximity to Griffin at the zoo and possession of a slinky black dress meant she became his accomplice when he tried to use the skills the animals taught him to win Stephanie back at his brother’s wedding. Eventually it becomes clear that the audience is supposed to root for a union between Griffin and Kate but it’s an almost impossible task because Griffin barely has any screen time with Kate and because of all the talking animals going on there is no room for a relationship when the film is already busting at the seams.
Theoretically Zookeeper sounds decent. And for the most part the scenes where the animals are coaxing Griffin are actually enjoyable. But the framework of the film makes the plot unnecessarily complicated…which means not only do audience members not get enough of what they wanted but they also get a whole bunch of other things they didn’t sign up for.

MILAN (Reuters) - The head of Italian luxury group Tod's said that if ever decided to sell his company it would be to LVMH's boss Bernard Arnault but he added that he had no plans like that for now.
Speaking at the Financial Times Luxury Summit, Tod's founder and chairman Diego Della Valle said LVMH's recent decision to raise its stake in Tod's to 10% was a message "that we like to stay together". He reiterated that if the right opportunity arose, the two groups might "do something together".
Asked if that meant Tod's could be sold to LVMH, Della Valle said: "If one day I decide (to sell), I believe in people like Bernard (Arnault)," adding however that he and his family had no plans to sell Tod's for the time being.
Asked again if, should he decide to sell, it would be to Arnault, Della Valle said: "100 percent, for sure."

Ramit Sethi: Yes, You Can Still Be Rich
This article touches on a lot of things I've been thinking about lately, as a young adult with a somewhat stable job, I have some savings right now, and some capital, but I am nervous with what to do with it in this economy. And what if I do lose my job, I may need that money as back-up to continue living here in San Diego as I would like to right now.
"As young people, we don't pay attention to our money. When there's something you're neglecting and you just hear bad news, you again don't pay attention, but you feel guilty about it. It's a combination of apathy and guilt that comes with money, just like eating and working out. 'I know I should go to gym four days a week, I shouldn't eat that pizza.' We know that we should be figuring out something about money and should probably do a Roth IRA, but we don't know where to get started. There's so much conflicting advice out there."
Can I get an Amen.
And then rounding out the interview with this.
I assume you follow your own advice and have money in the stock market, and it must have lost significant value lately. How do you not get down about that?
I built an infrastructure where I only focus on one thing -- earning more. It gets automatically disbursed -- 20 percent to investments, 5 percent to savings, etc. In terms of dealing with losses, first of all, I don't check into my investments every day, and I don't think anyone should. Second, there's a difference between losing when everyone is gaining and losing when everyone has lost.
I'm resolutely focused on the long-term. I do believe the long-term prospects are great, but I'm not a prognosticator. My focus is on living a rich life, which also means being able to visit a friend or buy what you want. Being rich is just partially about money."
This is what really sold me on this entire article, Ramit, you've got the right idea my friend.

Fewer bank failures lead to competition, higher sale prices

Banks looking to purchase troubled or failing Florida banks have found few bargains, according to a report by Cox Newspapers.
Two of the hardest hit counties have been Manatee and Sarasota where, according to Cox, ten or more banks have been taken over by other banks since 2007. These include: First Priority, Freedom, Flagship, Horizon, Landmark, Orion, First State, Century, Community National Bank, Peninsula Bank, and Colonial Bank.
But interviews conducted by Cox found that there are multiple investors searching to take over fewer troubled banks in the state, driving up the price. The FDIC closed 29 Florida banks in 2010, 13 in 2011 and four in 2012, according to Cox.

“Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa”
At the Quality 16 & Showcase
3 out of 5 Stars
The formula for a commercially successful family film is set in stone: Get some A-List actors; pick a nice holiday release date; fill the script with broad humor for kids and plenty of selective references for parents. The last part more than exemplifies the Dreamworks/PDI model. “Shrek” anyone?
Despite its formulaic predictability, “Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa” is an easy and enjoyable flick.
For the 25 people that didn’t see it, the first “Madagascar” was about a lion (Ben Stiller, “Tropic Thunder”), a zebra (Chris Rock, “Bee Movie”), a hippo (Jada Pinkett-Smith, “The Women”) and a giraffe (David Schwimmer, TV’s “Friends”). The spunky animals were all banished from New York’s Central Park Zoo, then marooned on the island of Madagascar. In the sequel, the verbose quadrupeds decide to leave the island only to crash-land in continental Africa.
Add some monkeys, the brilliant lemur Julien (Sacha Baron Cohen, “Borat”) and a spastic, fantastic quartet of penguins, and … the formula hasn’t really changed. Still, the new installment is a little better than its predecessor. Groan all you want about positive themes like individuality, father-son bonding, true love and environmental plight; but they’re all over the film and they’re almost sincere. But the jokes still take precedence.
Wait for the scene where they have plane-construction labor struggles with monkeys, a bit like real-life labor politics. (The first film was all about balls-to-the-wall sight gags and showcasing penguins.) And the swimming birds are back in force; look for them hijacking trucks at break-neck speed. This time around, though, the ante is upped with constant gags, better joke timing and fewer manipulative themes. Unlike the original, the ideas don’t have to be spelled out at the end — you can figure them out on your own.
Julien the lemur has great, subtle one-liners alluding to contemporary class struggles and airport security. To stop a pest child from getting on his plane, Julian screams: “Stop him! He has scissors and hand-cream!” The penguins showboat yet again as they get all the best jokes in the film. And the best part? The best lines aren’t spoiled in the previews.
With “Madagascar,” one has to wonder if the age-old cartoon allusions are understandable or relevant anymore. Everyone’s heard “The Good, The Bad & The Ugly” theme used in a joking context, likely in a cartoon (it was even used in a trailer before this movie). But how many eight-year olds will know where it comes from? Is playing “Copacabana” by Barry Manilow funny for tots?
Also, parents are now in their 30s and 40s, meaning they’re late 1960s to 1970s children. They likely haven’t seen “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” And with certain lines — like a monkey saying someone looks like “Breakfast” ‘s lead actor George Peppard — one wonders: Who’s this film for: weird critics who actually care about what directors enjoy making note of? No, “Madagascar” is a cute and funny film that’s actually a little better than the first. Yeah, it’s kids’ stuff, but at least it’s pleasant.

CNN BREAKING NEWS
Tax Cut Reduced to Half by Congress
Aired March 25, 2003 - 14:53 ET
THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
JUDY WOODRUFF, CNN ANCHOR: As we listen to Ari Fleischer at the White House and of course with the president focused almost entirely on this war, we want to tell you that word just in that the president has been dealt an important domestic setback. And that is that his tax cut package, which is before the Congress, in the United States Senate, Republican-controlled Senate, that package has been cut more than half by a body, again, which is majority Republican.
Let's go quickly to the Hill, to our reporter, Jon Karl -- Jon.
JONATHAN KARL, CNN CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Judy, this is quite a blow for the president's tax plan, and it comes as somewhat of a surprise because Republicans had beaten back a similar effort on Friday to cut the tax cut in half. The tax cut now, after this amendment in the Senate, stands at $350 billion.
There were three Republicans who joined with all of the Democrats who were present here today to vote in favor of this measure to cut the tax cut in half, three Republicans crossing party lines. They were Olympia Snowe of Maine, Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island and Senator Voinovich of Ohio. They joining with the Democrats on this.
What this does is it takes the $726 billion that had been set aside in the president's budget for a tax cut and reduces it to $350 billion. Now, last week, the Senate had reduced that $726 figure by $100 billion to help pay for the war in Iraq. This is a further erosion of the president's tax cut, and a sign that when it comes time to actually drafting that tax cut and getting it through the Congress, the president will have a very hard time of getting anything passed above this $350 billion mark.
So a significant domestic setback for the president in his domestic policy, even as there is widespread support up here for the effort in Iraq -- Judy.
WOODRUFF: OK, Jon, I'm going to ask you one other question. We may be showing our viewers, though, some video from Baghdad. Just seconds ago, moments ago, sirens going off in Baghdad. And if we can get that picture up, we will show it to our audience again. My understanding is these sirens went off for a few seconds and then stopped. Again, these pictures from just a moment ago.
Jon Karl, if you are still with us, we want to be clear -- and I'm not sure, you may have clarified this. But the House of Representatives can be expected to overwhelmingly support the president's budget, the tax cut proposal. So whatever comes out of the Senate and the House, the agreement in conference is going to be somewhere between the two, we can assume.
KARL: There is no question. As a matter of fact, Judy, last week, the House of Representatives did pass a budget that included the full tax cut requested by the president. They narrowly passed it by just a three-vote margin. So now you'll have the Senate coming in with something considerably less. The two will have to get together and come to some kind of a compromise.
But what this signals is that there are 51 votes in the United States Senate against any tax cut more than $351 billion. So at the end of the day, it's going to be very hard for the president, for Republicans, to pass anything larger than that. Remember, what we're talking about right now is the president's budget. And it's leaving a hole in the budget for that tax cut. The Congress will have to comet together once again, later in the year, to actually craft the details of that tax cut. Now you've got 51 senators on record saying no way, they're not going to go more than $350 million.
WOODRUFF: And all this happening after members of Congress learning the price tag or at least the opening bid on the price tag of this war. All right, Jonathan Karl, reporting on an important domestic setback for President Bush with his tax cut proposal, even as he wages this war in Iraq. Let's quickly get back to the White House, to Ari Fleischer.

This is how Emma Coronel reacted after verdict to the ‘Chapo ‘; defense will appeal
“Of course, we’ll appeal,” said defense lawyer Jeffrey Lichtman, followed by his colleagues Eduardo Balarezo and William Purpura, who claimed to possess “left on the battle” to steer clear of the drug trafficker’s conviction in the ten fees which the US Attorney’s Office imputed him.
“We struggle a lot. This is no matter who the protector is, you still have to fight to the death, and the United States. It isn’t important what the people believe, the authorities, the defense. We did whatever we could, but it was not sufficient, “said Lichtman.
“That really is a case that has been, literally, an avalanche of proof. So much that we can hardly work with them, they were in a different speech, it was quite complex, “insisted the lawyer. “It’s been an honor and a pleasure to represent Joaquín Guzmán, I mean it,” said the attorney, for whom his client was always “happy, he was educated” at that time the trial lasted, an instance he considered “historic” One of the people who had been in the court to be aware of the fate of the Mexican drug trafficker, was his spouse, the beauty queen of 29 years, Emma Coronel Aispuro.
After the verdict was read and interpreted for the defendant, El Chapo turned to see her and blew her a kiss, according to the Daily Mail. Emma Colonel smiled in response and, with tears in her eyes, gave her a thumbs up. ‘Chapo’ and Emma have been married since I was 18 years old. So she can understand that the procedures colonel has used hearing aids. “Chapo’ appeared imperturbable when the verdict was interpreted, according to the Daily Mail.

A Drabble with Lance saying replying to something actually horrifying with "Don't worry, I'm used to it."
AHHH I’m so sorry this took me so long, I couldn’t think of anything for this!
I’m not sure how I feel about this tbh
Mentions Of Bullies
Lance had always grown up with bullies. Throughout elementary school, to middle school, to high school they were always there.
They only started getting physical in high school. Lance hide it from his parents, he would make sure that they never found out. He knew that they wouldn’t be able to stop them and they didn’t have enough money to move Lance to a new school. I guess I better get used to it. And he did.
Moving to the Garrison was the best decision of Lance’s life. He had the best roommate ever, a strange communication buddy and he was far away from his old bullies. However his bullies were quickly replaced by his officers.
It wasn’t hard for Lance to learn about the pilot prodigy Keith. Every teacher and officer made sure Lance knew he was a replacement to Keith. Everything Lance did was always “Keith did better” or “Don’t forget you’re only here because Keith dropped out.” Lance never got “Good job Lance!”
Oh well, better get used to it.
Lance didn’t have to deal with ‘bullies’ when he became part of Voltron, the team and Alteans were usually pretty good at being nice to him.
However not everybody was nice to Lance.
They had just gotten done saving a planet when the all landed to meet the aliens. Each alien was about 9 feet tall and looked like they could lift a schoolbus. They also didn’t look the friendliest.
As soon as Lance stepped out of his lion he was targeted by them. He didn’t know exactly what they were saying all he knew is he flew too close to their sacred tomb.
Lance tuned them out as they scolded him, maybe I shouldn’t save everyone.
After about 10 minuets of them telling him what he did wrong and how they didn’t understand why Voltron pick him out of everyone, Lance walked to his lion and flew away.
The rest of the team immediately followed Lance, barely even saying goodbye to the aliens they recently saved.
Once up in their lions the team tried to speak to Lance, who hadn’t said anything the entire time
“Lance don’t believe what they said. You’re a fantastic pilot and a great asset to the team.” Shiro prayed that his words reached Lance.
“I agree with Shiro, even though we fight I still believe that you amazing.” Keith flew Red around Blue to try to get a response.
“Lance you’re like another brother to me. You can’t believe what those freaks said about you.” Pidge attempted to keep their hands steady as they fumed with anger for what happened to Lance .
“Lance, buddy, you’re my best friend. I know you and you are amazing. I need you to understand this, okay? Lance? Can you answer me?” Hunk was trying not to freak out, but he was starting to freak out.
After a few moments of silence Lance finally spoke “Don’t worry, I’m used to it.” Lance turned his coms off.
The team was speechless. How could Lance be used to being yelled at? How could he easily take the blame for something he didn’t do?
“When we get back to the castle, everyone report to the common room, we need to discuss what to do with Lance.” Shiro watched Blue fly in front of the group and narrowed his eyes. He wasn’t sure why Lance was like this but he would fight to make sure Lance was happy.
a/n: please remember if you are being bullied, you don’t have to suffer in silence. please tell someone, i promise it will make things better, don’t let anyone dull your sparkle. you’re perfect just the way you are, no matter your orient, sexuality, size, gender etc. make sure you smile today :) you deserve to be happy x
You can choose to write this or not but consider! :0 a bully shoves Jeremy against a locker which causes his nose to bleed and then protective Michael
I’m not going to write a really big thing for this, but I’m going to write a thing.
Setting: Freshman Year (It’s okay if you sang this in Rich’s voice in your head because I did too)
High school, Michael thinks, is far too big and far too confusing for a mind that is still trapped in the comfort of middle school. He’s spent the better half of five minutes trying to navigate around students far larger than himself in order to find Jeremy’s locker.
When the masses of students begin to dwindle, Michael realizes he’s running short on time, but he has to find Jeremy first. They made a pact on the first day to always meet up after every class no matter what. To them, this isn’t just high school; it’s also survival.
Now that there aren’t what feels like thousands of students crowding around, it doesn’t take Michael long to spot Jeremy at his locker, but Jeremy’s not alone.
In front of Jeremy is a towering red-head who does not appear friendly at all. Michael watches as the red-head shouts at Jeremy, but then the next few seconds appear to Michael’s narrowed eyes as if in slow motion.
Jeremy turns his back on the red-head to open his locker, but the red-head doesn’t leave. Instead, he shoves two palms against Jeremy’s back, forcing the brunet face-first into the locker.
Michael’s blood begins to boil, and a dangerous red colors over his normally welcoming eyes. Time shifts back to normal just as he starts toward the two.
Both Jeremy and the red-head look toward Michael, and Michael allows a brief moment of fear when he spots the blood seeping out from Jeremy’s hand that’s cupped over his nose before anger takes center hold within his chest once more. He stalks up to the red-head with his hands curled into fists at his side, and then he swings.
Here’s a perk of being left-handed: people never see a punch coming. Michael’s knuckles crash against the red-head’s cheek, and said boy stumbles backwards, eyes wide in surprise.
For a moment, no one moves, and the three fall deathly silent, save Michael’s harsh panting as adrenaline courses through his body. But, after a few moments, the red-head laughs.
“You’ve got some serious balls, freshie.”
Michael steps around until he’s planted in front of Jeremy as a human shield, and he narrows his eyes, staring dangerously at the red-head.
“Chill, dude. I’m leaving.”
Michael and Jeremy watch as the red-head turns on his heel and walks off, and it’s only when the guy is out of sight that Michael spins around pushes up slightly on his toes to get a better look at Jeremy’s nose.
Despite the blood and bruising, Jeremy smiles, and Michael frowns at this, briefly wondering if perhaps Jeremy hit his head.
“Dude, that was so awesome! Thank you.” Jeremy says, voice a spitting image of someone in awe.
Michael rocks back on his heels, and his lips curl up into a wide smile. “I’ve got your back.”
Concept: Lance with glasses. He always wore contacts so no one knew. Maybe people used to call him 'four-eyes' so he doesn't feel as comfortable wearing them around other people like Pidge. Then one day his eyes really hurt or are dry from lack of sleep so he has to wear them. Queue everyone being like: 'Whaaaattt?? You have glasses?' Or 'Why do you have Pidge's glasses?' and poor Lance is just so uncomfortable.
My poor boy :(
Mentions of bullying
Lance was around 6 when he first got his glasses. His eyes weren’t the best and he would always get his family members messed up and couldn’t read the board in class, no matter how close he sat to it.
His father took him to get his eyes checked and even helped him pick out a pair of glasses. Lance thought that that they were the coolest thing ever.
“Move it four eyes.” Lance was shoved to the ground. His books and glasses scattering around the school yard. Lance started to stand up but was ‘accidently’ pushed back down by the kids.
Lance fought back tears as he tried to stand up. He started to move to his glasses but as his hands reached out the them he heard a crack. Lance squinted as the boy that was towering above him, his foot on his glasses.
“Whoops, sorry about that Lance.” Lance started crying as the boys laughed at him.
Lance went home that day in tears. He didn’t want his parents to know but they obviously knew. His mother demanded to know what happened but Lance wouldn’t tell at first. He didn’t want to be labeled as weak to his own parents. However he eventually broke under their pressure and he told them about his bullies. He begged his parents not to tell the school or his siblings.
His parents looked at him with sad eyes and told him they will do what needs to be done.
The next day Lance was taken to get new glasses and contacts.
Lance always tried to wear his contacts, he didn’t want people to know about his glasses. The only person on the team that knew about Lance’s glasses was Hunk. After all they did share a room together at the Garrison, Lance couldn’t hide it from him.
Unfortunately homesickness consumed him to the point where he started to lose sleep. It wasn’t uncommon for Lance to wake up with dry skin and eyes, everything hurting from his head down to his toes.
Lance rubbed his eyes and walked into his bathroom. He stared down at his contact case then shifted his eyes to where his glasses sat.
He debated putting his contacts in, but his eyes hurt that morning. The light seem to make his eyes burn and his eyes felt dry no matter how many times he blink.
He stared at his glasses, They team won’t care. He grabbed them and got changed and walked to the dining room.
He heard the team before he saw them. They were all laughing and talking excitedly. Lance smiled to himself, just like his family.
Lance entered the room and sat down in his usual seat next to Keith.
Keith glanced at Lance then looked at Lance. He just stared at Lance.
Lance shifted in his seat uncomfortably. “Umm good morning?”
“Why do you have Pidge’s glasses?” Keith asked, his eyes staring at the metal that surround Lance’s eyes.
“I don’t, they’re mine.” Lance looked down at the table. Damnit I knew this would happen.
Something that Lance wanted to keep in a small conversation turned into the topic of discussion among the paladins.
Keith looked at Pidge “Hey Pidge, do you have an extra pair of glasses?” He gestured to Lance.
“No…Oh my, Lance you have the same pair as me??? I guess that makes you a nerd just like me!” She smiled brightly at him.
Lance bit his cheek. Everyone was gushing over his glasses, except Hunk who was staring at Lance with concern.
Lance started to fold in on himself slightly, they were just glasses.
Hunk took notice to how Lance was reacting and cleared his throat. “Good morning Lance! How’d you sleep?”
Lance looked at Hunk and smiled. “I slept alright, what about you?”
“I slept pretty good, ready for the day?”
Lance smiled “Yes! I’ll beat you to the training deck!” Lance took off running.
Hunk smiled and looked at his teammates who looked confused? Maybe that wasn’t the right word but the looked off.
Hunk exhaled and faced the team. “Guys Lance is really insecure about his glasses, he was bullied a lot for them in school. Just don’t bring attention to them when he wear them.” Hunk gave a small smile and ran out of the room.
The team looked at each other and the all mutually agreed to act like Lance wasn’t even wearing glasses.
I honestly hate how I ended this :/
Sorry it took so long
I relate to this a lot. When I got my glasses last year everyone thought they were fake and would always take them during class. I hated it.
For an organization of supposedly compassionate beings, the Jedi Order sure has a lot of bullying. What’s especially interesting is that most of the perpetrators are ‘righteous’ or ‘popular aggressor’ bullies. While many bullies are low status people looking for attention or a measure of power, righteous bullies are usually higher status individuals reinforcing the existing social order. More over, they often do so with the tacit approval of authority figures.
Based on the Kanan comics, Caleb Dume was bullied during his time at the Temple. Caleb asked a lot of uncomfortable questions to the visible annoyance of his instructors and his peers took advantage of it.
In this scene Caleb asks a question and his classmate physically assaults him while turning it into a ‘lesson.’ Yoda breaks it up when Caleb starts bleeding, but he doesn’t reprimand his attacker, he just sends Caleb off to get medical attention. She continues to bully Caleb throughout the arc, calling him names, belittling him, and spreading malicious rumors about him and his mentor. The narrative heavily implies that she’s jealous that he’s such a gifted student despite being younger and is bullying him to reestablish her ‘rightful’ authority over him.
The same thing happens to Obi-Wan & Anakin comic.
Anakin is a more talented Force-user than these kids who’ve been studying it there whole lives, so they remind him of why he’ll always be beneath them. Once again, their instructors are present, but it is Anakin who is reprimanded and made to apologize when he tries to retaliate.
The bullying doesn’t stop when Anakin becomes a knight, although it does become more subtle. All throughout The Clone Wars, Anakin is bullies by his Jedi colleagues, yes, including Obi-Wan. During the war, his fellow Jedi: force him to do certain things because they are triggering (the movie, 2.04, 3.11-13); humiliate him in front of his superiors (1.02, 2.05 ) and subordinates (1.06, 2.17); spread malicious rumors (2.06); and belittle him (too many instances to count, thanks, Obi-Wan). Of course, it’s all done in the name of giving him a lesson, reminding him of his place, or testing to make sure he belongs there. Righteous bullying at it’s finest.
For today’s Caffeine Challenge #13 (prompts here), I tried to branch out a little with a character a bit different from my usual. This is a little bit horror, too, which is not generally my thing. Warnings for: bullying, physical violence and misgendering.

It makes me really sad that people hurt Dan for being different, and despite what dan said in his draw my life video“now i realise that all these kids had their own shitty life” people physically and emotionally abusing you should not excused by their own problems.
imagine kindaichis actually good friends w/ a bunch of the girls in his class & some fucker gets jealous so he starts this rumour abt him saying hes gay (as if it’s an insult) & ppl start making fun of him and bullying him & one day while hes eating lunch with kunimi one of the bullies walks over and sneers “And who’s this? Your precious little boyfriend?” and kindaichis shaking with anger, with irritation, with hurt, and kunimi has had enough of seeing his best friend bullied like this so he stands up in the middle of kindaichis class, stares the bully dead in the eye and hisses “bitch i might be,” before picking up his bento and slamming it on the guy’s face, sending him reeling backwards and crashing onto the floor.
and as the rest of the class stares at him in shock and mild fear, he straightens up and dusts his hands off calmly, casts a glance around the room, bows slightly and says “pardon the disturbance” and grabs kindaichi’s hand and just drags an absolutely stunned kindaichi out of the classroom with him like nothing out of the ordinary just happened
A thief by nature, its given you a bad reputation around the camp. To find some peace from always having to defend yourself you find the early hour of morning is the best time to do so. However the choice on place is outside of the camps perimeter, and Bellamy is surprisingly slow to fixing that.
You were at your best when you went unnoticed. On the Ark you’d never been good at the whole working together thing, more the slight of hand and run type. It earned a pretty bad reputation with everyone because, well, when you were caught the floors and walls and ceiling were filled with other people’s things. To be fair it was a collection that started generations ago, your parents and your father’s parents just as kleptic before them. But it was you who got caught, so it was only right that you took the fall. Given the excessive amount stolen and your reclusive nature it instigated you never wanted to earn anything and instead would steal at any time for any reason. The only sanctuary you could find from everyone’s judgement now was early in the morning, small bowl of fruits and nuts in your lap, staring off into the pale blue world.
Letting out a big yawn you caught someone’s attention, for the first time peeking a curious interest. Most would brush it off, too tired to investigate, but this person noticed it was outside of the compound, so they rounded to meet you.
I was going through the Marauders confessions and I read some of them saying that the reason they didn’t like the Marauders was because they were bullied. I was bullied in the 7th grade and one of the only things that made me happy was Harry Potter- especially the Marauders- and it was never triggering or anything for me. I could see both sides, and I could see that the Marauders were more than just what they did to Snape.
It was far too late to be up on a school night, but even as Link fell asleep - looking peaceful and still wearing his glasses, Rhett couldn’t stop his nagging brain.
He was far from a violent person. He didn’t start fights or watch them, and most of the time he kept to himself. So he’d never experienced the rage and protective instinct he felt when he caught sight of Link on the ground, with John Carson’s boot kicking into his side.
That was the one and only time that Rhett realized he could punch someone. Or even beat the crap of them. For the most part, Link was fine now, but Rhett could still feel the anger when he closed his eyes and pictured the smug look on Carson’s face. He’d had to work to stop Link from joining in after he’d slammed a fist into John Carson’s gut, breaking that smug look as it sunk in.
It took the lure of bacon bits to woo his friend into coming over afterward. Link was so sure he was fine and wasn’t keen to face mama Di’s fussing, which Rhett knew from experience could be worse than Sue’s. Unfortunately, the scraped knee and large bruise spoke for him, and Rhett managed to talk him down.
Giving up on sleep, Rhett hopped out of bed when he saw his brother’s shadow passing by the door - bearing Cole’s broad shoulders.
“What are you doing up?” Rhett asked in surprise, stepping out of his room as he spoke.
Cole scratched his head sheepishly. “I uhh… just got home. Don’t tell mom.”
Out of curiosity he then peered into Rhett’s room at Link. “How’s Neal?” He deflected.
“Fine.” Rhett said, all too quickly. Unfortunately he could tell by his brother’s face that he didn’t believe it.
“Some jerk he plays with got to him after soccer.” Rhett admitted.
Cole took another look at the sleeping boy in his brother’s room, clearly trying to hide how pissed and concerned his expression now was. “How’d he hold up?”
“I stepped in but he was complaining about not getting a punch in all night.” Rhett vented.
Cole chuckled in amusement. “That’s the thing about little brothers. They don’t usually need help, but then they figure out you don’t give a shit if they do or not. You’re gonna be there anyway.”
“But what if he’s really annoying?” Rhett asked teasingly, his eyes resting fondly on Link as he leaned against his own door frame.
Cole shrugged. “You’d still be there. Hate to break it to ya.”
Rhett laughed quietly, allowing his brother a rare grin. Their smiles died the second they heard Link stir in his sleep and roll over, resulting in his shirt riding up high enough to reveal the bruise on his side.
“Did you beat the dudes head in?” Cole asked, gritting his teeth at the sight.
Rhett was surprised by the anger in the question, even more so when he looked at his older brother’s eyes and saw Cole staring at Link with the same protectiveness he’d only ever looked at him with.
“I don’t think he’d do it again anytime soon,” Rhett assured him, lowering his voice when he heard Link make another noise. “I reckon if the rest of the team wasn’t there Link would’ve had a chance.”
“Still don’t give a shit.” Cole growled suddenly, making Rhett raise an eyebrow.
“Hey.” He said in mock defense. “He’s my brother back off.”
Cole snorted. “Oh please. I’ve got both of y’all on my hands.”
Rhett sighed but didn’t deny it as Cole clapped him on the back. “Good going Rhetty boy.”
The talk apparently over, Cole walked off without another word, heading for his room down the hall. Still too wired for sleep, Rhett figured he might as well try anyway, and slipped into his own room.
Careful not to wake up his friend on the way to bed, Rhett reached his long arm down to gently take Link’s glasses off his face, placing them on a night stand.
“Welcome to the McLaughlin’s, little bro.” He whispered, before finally rolling over to sleep.
This is @wolfspirit00‘s fault because we were talking about brotherly rhink.
The Host Club would later have a sleepover and watch movies. After he got hit though, the Host Club would constantly cling to Karou for months.
(Just to remind you bullying is not okay! If you bully someone or hurt them in any kind of way, that is not okay. And if you are the victim who is getting bullied, tell them to stop, and if they don’t reach out to someone please! This has been a PSA by a fellow OHSHC lover who has been bullied before.)
I have spent most of the day (and night- I even slept on it) mulling over whether to post this or not- but in the end I feel like I should say something.
To those who don’t know, a fanfiction writer in our Miraculous Ladybug fandom, deleted her fic due to a callout post which caused a lot of people to swoop in and make vicious, nasty, downright rude comments- a callout post which was made before the OP even contacted the fic author to discuss her work! Luckily I saw some rational, kind arguments from both sides, so I haven’t lost all hope. But I will be addressing the negative sides of this debate.
I am not here to talk about the fic itself, I’m not here to discuss “but Midnight! It was problematic” nope. That’s not part of the discussion. I don’t give a damn because at the end of the day, all I saw was a kind person- trying their best- being bullied. One person against hundreds of people. That’s not fair. That’s not right. Imagine how you would feel if that were you? It should not be happening in our fandom. It would be different if this person was deliberately and willfully spreading vitriol and hatred, spreading problematic ideals with the kind of “eff off I do what I want, I’m right and you’re wrong” mentality I’ve seen others possess- and they had a large enough following to essentially “protect” them. That was not the case here.
This was a case of someone with a large follower count not thinking through the consequences of their words or actions (but has realised as such now and somewhat apologised) and as a result of their callout, discourse, drama, and bullying happened.
I’m here to take a different approach- one of sympathy and compassion. You all know me, it takes a lot for me to get angry and I scarcely ever comment on things like this. Because I despise drama, discourse, or any other version of “shit stirring” as we Brits like to call it.
But this person? The fanfic writer who was vilified by certain people in fandom? Yeah. She happens to be someone I know- and I had to watch her be utterly humiliated in a public, shameful fashion. That- to me- is completely unacceptable. She is a sweet, kind, caring person new to the world of writing, who was trying really hard to improve despite the fact that English is her THIRD language. She is devastated. Ask yourself how you would feel if something like this happened to you?
And now she’s traumatised enough to feel like she never wants to try writing again, despite the fact that I knew full well she was trying to improve the story (talking to actual people who experienced the content she was trying to write) so she could handle the story in a more realistic way- before she was quite ruthlessly called out and became so upset and embarrassed that she just ended up deleting the whole thing, believing that nobody would like her work ever again and that her fanfic writing career is dead.
The sheer hypocrisy of this website astounds me sometimes. How we can so desperately want to “set a good example” for the young people who follow us, and then proceed to do something as thoughtless as starting a witch hunt against one person? How is that better? How does that improve things? How does it “set a good example” to the young people who follow us? You think something in a community is wrong so you proceed to bully someone until they run away? Great job! What ever happened to constructive criticism? That really made this a safe space didn’t it? NOT.
We, as a fandom, are better than this. We should be lifting each other up, not tearing each other down. See something problematic? Critique, discuss, educate. For the love of god we owe it to each other! The world is a shitty, scary place enough as it is without turning on someone who had good intentions but whose execution was skewed.
Lord knows I’ve been triggered by things before in the past. Horrendously triggered- back when trigger warnings weren’t a thing and there was no way to prepare myself. But I didn’t do anything like this because I was always aware that there’s someone on the other end on the screen. There’s a person there.
And that’s what some people forgot yesterday I think- that on the other side of the screen there was a human being- a human being with different experiences to you, different levels of what they find acceptable, a human being looking at the world from perhaps a different lens to yours and their writing reflected as such.
Fanfic writers, by nature, are an island to themselves. We very rarely have anyone filtering our work. It makes sense to call out films, tv shows, media meant for consumption, because those things were seen by tens, if not hundreds, of people before they went to the viewing/paying public- they had a chance to be edited/problematic points considered. Fanfiction writers don’t have that luxury- so perhaps we should be a little more forgiving no?
Fanfiction writers, just like fan artists, are a part of this community too. They are real people. And, as mentioned before, we should be DISCUSSING and critiquing problematic content like rational, mature adults, setting good examples for the generations after us.
This is the last I’m going to say on the matter before I drop it once and for all. Like I said in an earlier post- this blog is a blog of positivity, of sharing love and spreading happiness to all! I believe, and will ALWAYS believe, in making the Miraculous Ladybug fandom a place where people can feel safe, where we spread joy and lift each other up, where we help each other improve in ways we could never possibly dreamed. I didn’t see that yesterday and that’s a shame. But I know we can keep getting better guys! I know we can make it so something like this doesn’t happen again. I’ve already talked to the OP of the callout post and it was nice and friendly, and civil in the way I expect this fandom to be. OP has publicly apologised for the nature of the callout post and I’m glad for that! See? It doesn’t have to be so drama-llama-ding-dongy! It can be talky-talky-good-good! ^O^
So let’s all take a deep breath, move on, and continue to make this fandom the best one on tumblr ok? ^_^
Nearly old enough to be leaving high school, your mutant abilities have yet to manifest. In a school rebuilt and starting anew, filled with battered mutants, some are very prejudice against humans the way humans are prejudice against them, bagging a relief for their frustrations on you, the most human of them all. Professor Erik Lehnsherr spots the bullying and decided it’s time you found yourself.
I know I ONLY mentioned Yuri got bullied for wearing a skirt, but hoooo, boy. There was a heck lot more going on behind the curtains. And Victor didn’t hesitate to kick these asshole’s asses with the big help of his own media fame.
(he’s still a figure ice skating legend. Just before Yuuri and Victor adopted Yuri they retired and work as coaches or ice skating teachers for beginners)
ALSO I’M SORRY BOUT THE THIRD PANEL!!! My writing is awful, so I recreated the scene of the headmaster’s and Yuuri’s conversation with a sketch below. The dialogues are a bit different, but I hope you don’t mind. <3
This grew out of the Tammy Bruce story. Both she and her defenders have said that she was unaware of the boy’s autism. While that might be true, it is still the reason she targeted him. Most autistic bullying victims are targeted by people who don’t know they’re autistic. Still these bullies are going after them because of their autistic traits.
Nobody ever notices the people in the background. Nobody thanks the lunch lady for serving food, nobody asks the librarian how their day was, nobody ever says hello to the janitor. And that’s exactly what Gabriel was counting on.
As the janitor of Crawford Hall University, the Trickster could go anywhere, listen in on anyone, and nobody would bat an eye. It was the perfect disguise, hiding in plain sight. Nobody would ever know, hell nobody would ever ask, who he was.

Cowboys win in triple overtime
The Cowboys hosted the Pahranagat Valley Panthers Friday January 7. The two teams exchanged leads the whole game until the end of regulation, until the Panther’s star player, Cody Hosier, hit a 45 foot shot to tie the game up, going into overtime.
The two teams again exchanged leads, and at the end of the first overtime, the teams were still tied. The game went into double overtime, and again the two teams were tied at the end of the overtime.
Finally, in the third overtime, senior Dan Chamberlain caught a pass from Brandon Jenson and made the lay-up with just seconds left, winning the game 88-86.
The Cowboys were led in scoring by seniors Kade Quarnberg with 27 and John Terrel with 24 points. Sophomore Brandon Jenson added another 15, while Shay Niemann netted 8.
The Cowboys were supported by many fans and Kanab High’s own Regulators. This acted as, a sixth man, and helped the Cowboys pull out the win. It is much appreciated!
Tonight, the Cowboys play the Parowan Rams in Parowan. On Friday they take on the Cross Creek Academy Bobcats.

The Elder Statesman
Rick Pearson, Evening Standard 22.05.08
A week shy of his 50th birthday, Paul Weller represents the rarest of musical commodities: a rockstar who is growing old gracefully.
He may have kept the iconic haircut — growing old being one thing, sacrilege being quite another — but the Modfather has never stood still. Indeed, his latest album, 22 Dreams, his ninth to date, is also one of his most ambitious, seeing him take on everything from Krautrock to the spoken word.
Last night Weller’s UK tour took him to the Hammersmith Apollo, where he played a generous two-hour set in front of an adoring crowd. The spiky menace of From The Floorboards Up nodded at Weller’s punky past as frontman in The Jam, while new songs like the piano-led Empty Ring suggested a more melodic future.
Out Of The Sinking, a favourite from Weller’s seminal 1995 album Stanley Road, was augmented by his tasteful bluesy guitar licks, although he’s not quite the guitar hero you feel he’d like to be.
All gyrating hips and flailing arms, the Modfather sent his mic stand crashing to the floor early on. Later, he would inadvertently send an expensive-looking guitar toppling to the same fate.
An acoustic interlude gave Weller a chance to steady himself. Seated on a stool, an inspired reworking of The Jam’s The Butterfly Collector brought the crowd to their feet, where they stayed and sang for the haunting Wildwood.
Better still was a ferocious version of Eton Rifles — a song that David Cameron recently professed to enjoying, much to the distaste of the Left-wing Weller — which suggested that rock’s elder statesmen could still teach the young guns a thing or two about protest pop.
More than a rare commodity, Weller is a national treasure.

Single-seat single-engined high-wing mono-plane with two-axis control. Wing has swept back leading edge, unswept trailing edge and tapering chord; conventional tail. Pitch con-trol by elevator on tail; yaw control by fully flying rudder; no separate roll control; control inputs through stick for pitch/yaw. Wing braced from below by struts; wing profile; 75% double-surface. Undercarriage has three wheels in tricycle formation; no suspension on any wheels. Push-right go-right nosewheel steering independent from yaw control. No brakes. Aluminium-tube framework, without pod. Engine mounted below wing driving pusher propeller.
The Cloudhopper is a simple homebuilt tube-and-dacron design with pedals reserved for ground steering, all flying being done with the stick. The machine has progressed through various stages - Mk.I, II and III, the principal difference between the machines is the tailplane design, which was initially a tubular structure. Peter was not satisfied with the rigidity of this and replaced it with a fabricated box-section structure to create the MkII.
Although this proved more rigid than its predecessor, it too was rejected as too complex and in 1983 Peter was working on a MkIII design, reverting to a tubular empennage but with greater rigidity than the MkI. The Mk.III will also feature stronger engine mountings, which are being designed to withstand 15g in accordance with the UK microlight airworthiness regulations.

Strong magnets can interfere with the operation of pacemakers.
Ordinary neodymium magnets only use one side of their metal stick magnetic field which means they are only using half of their available force. However, if adding a steel cup, the other pole of the magnet to be used that increases the strength of the magnet to much higher than that of a normal neodymium magnet. At the same time, the steel cup also protects the magnet from being damaged when frequently used, but also makes the other side magnetic weak.
Strong magnets could affect water meter, electric meter, gas meter and some equipment meters.
If the highest possible pulling force is needed, then cutting neodymium magnets are the answer to your magnet needs
Neodymium magnets are fragile, and can peel, crack or break if allowed to slam together.
The Traction Force will be influenced by many factors: the material’s material, effective contact area, the softness of the surface, to the direction of traction, temperatures, material type, thickness, flatness, friction levels , etc.), its quality (eg rust delivery), its size (thickness plus total area), etc.
The pulling force will maximize when one pulls vertical direction with surface magnets.
The big neodymium magnets are extremely strong, and must be handled with care to avoid injuries and damage to the magnets.Fingers and other body parts can get severely pinched between two attract magnets.It is easy broken, if it please be careful.
Strong magnets should be kept away from ironwork and some easily magnetized iron products, such as monitors, bank cards, computers, televisions.
Never place neodymium magnets near electronics
Strong magnet must keep away from children, If loving damaged please dispose of shards completely. They are still magnetized and will cause serious problems if swallowed by children.
Neodymium magnets will lose their magnetic properties if heated to 80 ° C / 176 ° F.
