Ascension of the Goddess of Decay

Hello, everyone. If you're reading this, you may have read my other stories. I'm starting this one as a bit of a "getting back into it" story. (The synopsis will be further down) Both stories I've written will continue in the near future. (I have to re-read them because I've experienced a massive bout of memory loss.) Apologies for those of you waiting, but I had unavoidable circumstances that impeded my writing experiences. The cover isn't mine but it's been lightly photoshopped. If you want it taken down, tell me. (Signed by Author on April 25th, 2023) Anyways, time for the synopsis: Lia was a simple girl in her previous life. Well not really, considering she was the hit woman for the largest mafia organization that operated within the United States. Over the years, her exceedingly high kill count, and overall success rate was something to be afraid of. Her personality was something akin to pure confidence, bordering on arrogance. She dealt with people the same way she did her enemies. By ruining their lives in the most horrific ways. IE: Setting them up for FBI investigations, having their houses repossessed by the government, or even having them framed for a serious crime. Lia was someone that no one wanted to ever cross. If you did cross her, you might as well have signed your own death certificate! That was until she was smacked in the head by a falling piano. While following through on a hit, no less! I mean, come on! A piano?! that's unfathomably crazy. Well, despite getting hit by a literal piano, she still managed to finish the job. But the very next day, she choked on a sandwich and nearly died! Her luck seemed to have literally bottomed out. This "streak of bad luck" had continued in her life for years! Literal years! She had come so close to dying so many times that she was genuinely confused as to how this could happen to someone! From falling down a flight of stairs to nearly breaking her neck during a cartwheel (despite having so much experience that she could do them with her eyes closed.) Lia had experienced so many near-death experiences that she had become entirely immune to the weird circumstances happening around her. Eventually, the bad luck did catch her. She was minding her own business, walking through the streets of Seattle when a coin rolled across the ground and tripped someone else, who dropped an umbrella, which she tripped over. Her fall had her land directly into the flow of moving traffic. She was then hit by a small square-body pickup truck. It had a small sticker of a smug smiling face attached to its front bumper. Lia had died because of what was essentially a coin. A coin had actually managed to kill a human being. Not just any human, but one of the most feared people within the US. Warnings for all readers: -This novel will (at some point) contain lesbian sex scenes. -System tag doesn't mean in the most literal way. (you'll find out more if you read it.) -This may become a Yuri harem novel (haven't decided.) -Will contain very strong LGBTQ+ themes

Pause nel tennis: come passare il tempo tra un set e l’altro

Il gioco del tennis è una passione che, se contagia, difficilmente vi abbandonerà. Questo sport fatto di potenza, rispetto e adrenalina sta guadagnandosi il posto che gli spetta nel mondo delle competizioni a livello nazionale e internazionale e, assistere a una partita dal vivo o in televisione (soprattutto in questo periodo di pandemia) è un’emozione sempre forte fino all’ultimo game. Se anche voi tuttavia state assistendo a un set particolarmente monoto, oppure state aspettando l’inizio di quello successivo e non sapete come passare il tempo, ecco qualche consiglio! Cosa fare tra un set e l’altro: qualche consiglio Pronti per qualche consiglio? Forse qualcuno vi sembrerà banale, visto che la pausa tra un set e l’altro di solito è molto breve, ma vi permetterà di far passare il tempo in un batter d’occhio per poi tornare alla vostra partita. https://www.oasport.it/2021/04/pause-nel-tennis-come-passare-il-tempo-tra-un-set-e-laltro/ Fare qualche esercizio. Il movimento è una delle buone pratiche per avere uno stile di vita sano, ma spesso non troviamo mail l’occasione o il tempo per correre o anche solo fare qualche esercizio. Questo momento di pausa potrebbe essere la “scusa” buona per allenarsi iniziando per gradi. Partite da qualche minuto di addominali, dorsali e piegamenti, per poi allungare gli esercizi e renderli una costanza nella vostra routine. Giocare online. Navigare con il telefonino (o al pc se lo avete acceso) è un altro passatempo su cui potete puntare mentre aspettate che riparta il tennis. I giochi online tra cui scegliere sono tantissimi, da quelli più interattivi, ai giochi di società o d’azzardo come Book of Ra soldi veri o simili. Ordinare la spesa. Fare la spesa online, soprattutto quando non si è tranquilli a uscire di casa o si vuole un servizio comodo ed efficiente, è la scelta migliore da prendere. Iniziare a selezionare la spesa per la settimana è un recupero di tempo prezioso, per questo ve lo consigliamo per passare il tempo in queste occasioni. Iniziare quel libro da troppo in sospeso. Quel libro che da tanto volevate iniziare vi sta chiamando: cominciate leggendo qualche pagina e sicuramente avrete sfruttato il tempo nella maniera migliore. Organizzare le ferie. Per chi e se si potrà andare in vacanza, la scelta della destinazione e del programma delle ferie è uno studio curato da fare man mano qualche mese prima di partire. Perché non iniziate a controllare online i luoghi, i prezzi e i servizi in modo da iniziare a farvi un piano? !
