National Lighthouse Day: Celebrating the Beacons of Light and Hope

National Lighthouse Day on August 7th honors the iconic beacons that have guided sailors for centuries. Celebrate these symbols of hope and resilience by exploring their history and significance.

Every year on August 7th, we celebrate National Lighthouse Day, a day dedicated to honoring the iconic structures that have guided sailors safely to shore for centuries. Lighthouses are more than just navigational aids; they are symbols of hope, resilience, and the enduring human spirit. On this day, we take a moment to reflect on the history and significance of lighthouses, the stories they…

I’m sure someone else has covered this by now, but the Superman suit being Kryptonian in origin had so much body horror/Kryptonian biology/etc potential. It’s a weird suit, this alien piece of technology. Who’s to say it only functions as a clothing layer? I want to know what it was doing to Clark and vice versa, whatever the bio-mechanical input was, etc. The cape could have been mildly sentient on its own — not enough to move, really, but enough to thicken/widen/constrict in dangerous situations. The suit could have stored solar energy as reserves. It could have pressed against glands/etc Clark didn’t know he had, keeping his focus during rough battles.

And what happens when Clark puts the suit on someone else, to protect them etc? Does it change Bruce a little bit, too?

'Angel Sua' has eyes that interest me in the "damn,,, I see em" way and the "this must be another aspect of her religious themes" kind of way, I mean that only because her pupils are so big, I almost think it's meant to look similar to a biblical angel, they have eyes like that to signify their all-knowing awareness, I see it as a connection to Sua's inherently omniscient and mysterious nature

I really think Tolkien would have liked Adar.

Someone who sees the wrongs they have done or did not speak up about, and tricked into being something they did not want to be. He is trying to do better not just for himself but for people he saw were being exploited and knew deserved better, even if most dont believe they did. Prove they are more than their mistakes.

And maybe he makes mistakes while trying to do better but I think Tolkien would understand that the trauma and trying to break away from it and that it counts for something.

Tolkien shows characters that fall but realise the mistakes and try redeem themselves (Boromir).

Tolkien would understand the trauma of war and what it does to people and the continues strength it takes to rise above it.

Tolkien would have loved Adar.

I think Freminet has some of the most interesting dissonance in his self perception of any Genshin character.

Like, of the Hearthlings we know, he's one of the most emotionally mature and intelligent. Lynette might still have him beat, but after playing her hangout... I dunno. I think they're tied. Lyney is Crumbling, Alrecchino is. Well. Arlecchino. Everyone else is a deeply traumatized child or adult and Freminet seems to pretty regularly be people's emotional support. His character stories talk about getting his vision by saving a bunch of other kids on a dive that went bad. The Selkie event literally had him being a therapist for a grownass woman, citing his past experiences with all the other Hearthlings that have died or killed themselves. And he handled that situation WELL. Yeah, he seems to live in a fantasy, but goddamn he's alive and a lot of people in his position aren't so clearly something is working.

Either his or Lyney's character story talks about the time Freminet had reached out to Lyney to try to ease his burdens, which resulted in Lyney blowing up at him. That probably contributed to Freminet thinking he's not good at it, but I think the reason Lyney reacted so badly was BECAUSE Freminet is actually a good support. He can't allow himself that from the little brother he's supposed to protect.

Freminet seems to both cry and dissociate often, but like... Kiddo you are in fact the only person in this family actually processing your emotions. Lynette dissociates 24/7. Arlecchino. Lyney lies and tells everyone he's fine and would literally rather die than admit otherwise. In comparison, Freminet is doing FANTASTIC

Freminet also gets a lot out of helping people! Like anyone, he needs to feel useful and needed. He seems to be an excellent mentor to the younger Hearthlings and perfectly competent on his own, but when you put him in a room with Lyney and Lynette who baby him and insist that THEY take care of HIM, he withdraws into himself.

Like, Freminet by himself feels like a young man and Freminet with the magician twins feels like a teenager. I have no idea how old he actually is. Logically, he would be OLDER than them! He's been with the House much, much longer and his experience shows. I think it's fascinating that they love him SO MUCH and yet, they just Cannot let him help them. Which is hurting him.

(Lynette is much better about not babying him and that is probably why their relationship is so much better than Freminet and Lyney's. Also why she keeps having to mediate between them. Because Lyney charges off trying to Fix Everything and that just makes Freminet feel useless and he doesn't want to get in the way and- you get the point)

Idk. It's hard to tell what things the previous director said to him vs what Arlecchino has said to him. I'm inclined to think our Arlecchino was the one that said he cries too much, but in a "crying in front of your enemies will get you killed" way and she herself is too fucked up to realize how "you cry too much" could be damaging.

Also I try not to consider gameplay stuff when it comes to story, but Freminet also has some of the most BRUTAL animations. He SMASHES HIS EMOTIONAL SUPPORT METAL PENGUIN INTO HIS ENEMY'S FACE. He doesn't think he's the most amazing fighter, and by Fatui standards he probably isn't, but he is winning fights against most grown men.

Tldr Freminet thinks he cries too much and is a burden and isn't good at helping people when he's actually the most mentally stable Hearthling send tweet
