Getting my official deed poll tattooed on my back

[apenitentialprayer]

Building on […] a long tradition of Catholic war resisters including the Berrigan brothers, Ben Salmon, Franz Jäggerstätter, and Dorothy Day, all of whom upheld the Gospel of nonviolence in turbulent times, we invite young Catholics to sign a proclamation document affirming their faith-led belief in Gospel nonviolence. The original testimonies will be held by the signers, with copies sent to the Pax Christi USA office in Washington, DC, which will act as the central archive. In the event of a military draft or call to war, these documents will serve as formal statements of conscientious objection. [...] To bring this resource to fruition, however, we need your help.

Pray for us as we launch this project, as well as for all victims of war.

Welcome friends into conversations about peacebuilding and learn more about the history of Catholic civil disobedience.

Please share the news of this registry with your parish, within your communities, and especially with any young Catholics you know.

Our hope is that this registry will not only be a legal support, but another seed in a growing network of solidarity.

The Bennington Declaration for Freedom, May 1775 predates the Declaration of Independence. It is said that Thomas Jefferson referenced this document when drafting the Declaration of Independence. A total of five copies were signed in May 1775 in Bennington, Vermont to protest the events of the 'Shot Heard 'Round the World' in Lexington and Concord. I had the privilege to hold the only original of the document in private hands (still held by the family of an original signer). When it was brought out and I saw the gleaming of the iron gall ink, my knees went weak. What an honor to hold such a great piece of American history.

This signer later fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill, and I held the flintlock musket and power horn he used that day. 📷 Me

By Stephen Millies

The Declaration of Independence is Philadelphia’s proudest claim to fame. It was written by the Virginia slave master and future U.S. president, Thomas Jefferson, who sold his own flesh and blood — the product of his rapes — upon the auction block.

Almost three-quarters of the signers of the declaration were enslavers. Using genocidal language, the document also describes Indigenous peoples defending themselves as “merciless Indian savages.”

The “unalienable rights” that Jefferson’s original draft mentioned were “life, liberty and property.” This expression was lifted from the writings of John Locke, a philosopher of the English capitalist class.

Both John Adams and Benjamin Franklin, members of the declaration’s drafting committee, knew that “the embattled farmers” who had “fired the shot heard round the world” weren’t going to die for the rich man’s property. So they changed this phrase to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

In which the plot thickens

So this is speculation currently, after we got a breath of fresh air Jack casually mentioned how when her mom passes away we’re going to be stuck footing the bill for whatever debts she has collected over the years. I’m not happy about that thought but digress, the next day I decide to look it up. Who is responsible for outstanding debts in that scenario?

It’s not my area of expertise so perhaps my quick google is incorrect but it seems like the general consensus is no, if a parent passes away the debts are not the children’s responsibility. The parents estate pays off as much as possible, their belongings get auctioned to pay off debts and Then willed amounts get divvied out if there’s any remaining after the debts. If their belongings cannot cover the costs of their debts then the bill just gets cancelled and the creditors just have to eat the loss. At least that’s what it sounds like. With the one caveat being that if they had a loan you were a co-signer for then yeah, you’re responsible for that.

Again, I could be wrong but that’s what Google is saying is how these things work in Canada.

Well I mention this and now, if this is true, then BIL has been taking money from Jack for years claiming it’s for debts their dad had- and that would mean BIL has been lying to her face for years and effectively stealing money from her for years.

Current running theory is that BIL took out loans with their dad as a co-signer for a failing business, (we know he did do that) since dad passed he would need someone else to foot the bill for it so he likely just pretended it was outstanding debts left from their dad and has been having Jack pay off his own debt just so he doesn’t have to.

Again, speculation, and perhaps my quick Google search is wrong! But this ain’t the first financial fuckery BIL has done, and it isn’t a far fetched accusation to make in this case

The whole scenario surrounding their dad’s passing was bizarre. Jack has always been the financial one in their house, she spent time with her dad being taught how to do all the budgeting with him, BIL has never even remotely tried to do anything finance related. When their dad passed BIL suddenly demanded that he take on all the financial things surrounding the passing, would refuse to communicate it with Jack, refuse to show her any documentation or let her look at things to help budget things better. At the time we assumed it was just a big behaviour change related to grieving but now? It’s looking more like he’s been hiding things for a long time.

If this is true, I don’t think Jack will remain in contact with them. I really do think that would be the final straw

Trump administration refers NY AG Letitia James for potential prosecution over alleged mortgage fraud

WASHINGTON — New York Attorney General Letitia James — who infamously declared that “no one is above the law” when she was targeting Donald Trump — was hit with a federal criminal referral for instances of alleged mortgage fraud on Tuesday, according to a letter obtained by The Post.

Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte sent the missive to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy AG Todd Blanche, alleging that James had “falsified records” to get home loans for a property in Virginia that she claimed was her “principal residence” in 2023 — while still serving as a New York state prosecutor.

That occurred in late August 2023, weeks before James began her civil fraud trial against the Trump Organization for over-inflating the values of many of its properties, which ended in a $454 million judgment.

“Ms. James was the sitting Attorney General of New York and is required by law to have her primary residence in the state of New York — even though her mortgage applications list her intent to have the Norfolk, VA, property as her primary home,” the letter stated.

“It appears Ms. James’ property and mortgage-related misrepresentations may have continued to her recent 2023 Norfolk, VA property purchase in order to secure a lower interest rate and more favorable loan terms.”

In February 2001, James also purchased a five-family dwelling in Brooklyn — but has “consistently misrepresented the same property as only having four units in both building permit applications and numerous mortgage documents and applications,” the letter noted.

Pulte attached several documents also showing that James purchased another property with her father as a co-signer — but falsely listed the pair as “husband and wife” in 1983 and 2000.

“While this was a long time ago, it raises serious concerns about the validity of Ms. James representations on mortgage applications,” he wrote.

“Attorney General James is focused every single day on protecting New Yorkers, especially as this Administration weaponizes the federal government against the rule of law and the Constitution. She will not be intimidated by bullies — no matter who they are,” a spokesman from her office said in a statement.

The letter referenced earlier media reports about purportedly falsifying her residence status to get a lower mortgage rate in Virginia and misrepresenting her five-unit residence in Brooklyn, that were first reported by the outlet White Collar Fraud.

Mardi 28 janvier 2025: J’ai donc été dans un hôpital en Suisse afin que l’on me replace la sonde naso-jéjunale. Voici un résumé de comment le procédé a eu lieu : Tout d’abord remplir et signer des documents. Ensuite une infirmière m’emmène dans une salle où je dois mettre une blouse d’hôpital et elle me place un cathéter au bras. J’ai attendue dans un lit d’hôpital où un brancardier me prit avec jusqu’au bloc. Dedans, j’ai dû m’allonger dans une autre sorte de lit. Il y’avait 3 soignantes. On me proposa une sédation mais j’ai refusée car j’ai toujours du mal à me remettre de tout ce qui est anesthésie. On me mis un cale-dents, de quoi surveiller la tension et le cœur, puis c’était partie pour à nouveau subir l’atrocité du placement de la sonde naso-jejunale. Par contre cette fois-ci, le procédé était très différent de toutes les autres fois. Ils utilisent une technique que je n’avais jamais vu avant. Ils commencent par m’introduire un endoscope via le nez! C’était atroce que cette grosse caméra passe de mon nez jusqu’à mes intestins. Une fois arrivé au bon endroit, un guide est introduit directement dans l’appareil d’endoscopie puis celui-ci retiré pour y placer la sonde à partir du guide. Pendant la procédure, je suis également sous une sorte de machine à rayons x qui montre bien en temps réel où est la sonde, dans ces conditions, tout est fait pour être sûre qu’elle soit au bon endroit et aucun risque qu’elle remonte dans l’estomac. Le guide a donc ensuite été retiré et un produit de contraste fut injecté dans la sonde pour être sûr de son placement. La sonde a été fixé comme d’habitude et pour finir on m’a mise dans une salle de réveil en attendant que le brancardier me remette dans la salle de mon arrivée pour que je récupère mes affaires et que le cathéter soit retiré. Pour la première fois, j’ai une sonde naso-jejunale avec un calibre tout fin ! D’habitude elles sont toujours si grosses..Cela s’explique par le fait qu’ils utilisent une matière différente faite pour que ce soit beaucoup plus agréable sur du long terme et car il n’y a pas le risque qu’elle remonte avec l’endoscope. J’espère qu’elle ne pourrira pas facilement à l’intérieur et l’extérieur comme toutes les autres… mais au moins ce problème de sonde est réglé et elle est si fine que je ne l’a ressens pas du tout! Ce sera donc plus agréable au quotidien!

full henberry lore under the more 🤫🤫🤫

hen was born Helga Lyn Meiser-Künneke in Hamburg, Germany in 1921. she had moved to America in April of 1939 by herself when she was 18. Nazi, Germany had already been established for 6 years by now, but before WW2. she decided it’d be better to get out of Germany and to become a german/english signer in America.

hen and gooseberry met 5 years later in 1944 at a department store, hen spoke decent english by now, not knowing any before coming to America. they got to talking a bit and both found a similar interest in being in the movie scene, they would see each other by “chance” in public sometimes but they didn’t talk much until 1950, a year before gooseberry aired her first episode of the gooseberry hour.

in 1951 gooseberry invited her to be on the second episode of the gooseberry hour as a singer for a few of her segments in the broadcast, which she happily accepted.

in 1952 she was promoted to be a co-host as well as a singer, now officially on the screen instead of behind the scenes only singing. this was also the time they got unofficially married, since this is the 50’s, homosexual relationships were extremely frowned upon so they kept it a secret but it was very obvious that they had romantic feelings for one another.

in 1954 everything started to spiral downward, gooseberry’s abusive father, dr. a futterman, had died from unknown causes and was never found. gooseberry used her television platform and mail-order "dental drops" business to get children addicted to narcotics, violence, theft, and murder, hen of course knew about this but decided to keep quiet, she wouldn’t be famous without gooseberry. she also loved herrr :3

in 1955, futterland studios was raided by the police, after which gooseberry was charged with racketeering, kidnapping, and conspiracy to commit murder. the raid left two police officers dead and five others injured, as she escaped into the tunnels beneath the set to attack them with drills. but was eventually caught and arrested. hen had escaped before the police fully came inside since she was in a whole other part of the building with an exit not even 30 feet away. gooseberry had been sent to the Holmesburg Prison, north of Philadelphia.

a few years later hen had completely lost it, resorting to becoming a drug mule for any information of her wife, in 1957 she was still acting, she was in an adult program called the garden of eve which she was in for a few months, the producer had been exploiting her trauma, pushing her to relive her darkest memories on air for cheap thrills. his mistreatment of her and the other women was the breaking point for hen, and when she finally snapped, once her mental state took its all time low she murdered him in a blind rage on live television, along with 3 other women that she acted with, landing herself in the same prison that gooseberry went to in previous years, of course, she was experimented on as well.

she had been drugged with an almost lethal dose of desomorphine, which is very apparent in her arms, legs and the right side of her face. this is another reason she’s not that fast when moving. she had been swallowing hundreds of cocaine balloons at a time to sell to her clients in other states, but this was used against her in the prison since one of the doctors had popped multiple of the balloons she’d been carrying. she also has multiple surgical staples around her body but there are real metal staples in her face, which are heavily infected. later on she developed uveitis in both eyes, her right eye being worse.

in 1959, hen was considered for project lathe after an interview with clyde perry, she is surprisingly calm and collected, only handcuffed to the table instead of being in a straitjacket. talking to him like nothing ever happened. she did give him the major creeps though.. he had heard of her multiple times throughout gooseberry’s documents and thought it would be a good idea to put them together in the same environment once again.

later in that same year the two were reunited, now “divorced” due to gooseberry thinking hen got murdered in the raid in 1955. at first gooseberry didn’t recognize hen and hen didn’t recognize gooseberry, they were actually reintroduced due to a reagent saying their names to another during a trial. they were both close enough to hear it. they’ve always called each other their real names, phylis and helga, gooseberry called helga ‘hen’ a lot more however, this is mainly due to hen having a dissociative identity disorder (kinda like what dr futterman and gooseberry are, (that is osdd tho) that had developed when hen was young.

they reunited with each other and it was soooo cute.. their relationship now complicated by years of emotional damage. hen constantly reassures gooseberry, while gooseberry tries to assert control over the relationship, often using her manipulative tendencies as a way to deal with her own fear of losing hen again. though gooseberry still gets annoyed at hen because she teases her all the time over dr futterman.. she likes to make him yell because she likes his voice.

"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor."

Signers of the Declaration of Independence

[bignaz8]

I had the distinct honor of holding an original copy of the Bennington Declaration of Freedom, which was written in May 1775 in response to the Battles of Lexington and Concord. It is said that Thomas Jefferson took inspiration from this document when drafting the Declaration of Independence. My hands trembled as my eyes scanned the iron gall ink scribed onto the page by the hands of patriots. Never, ever surrender your freedoms in their honor.

Signer Gideon Spencer was my cousin's ancestor, who later fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill using this musket rifle and powder horn.

This Day in History: Thomas Stone, Signer

At about this time in 1787, a signer of the Declaration of Independence passes away.  It’s been said that Thomas Stone died of a broken heart.

You’ve probably never heard of Stone. He wasn’t a big, famous personality like Benjamin Franklin. He didn’t do anything flashy, like Caesar Rodney did when he made a midnight ride from Delaware to Philadelphia, making it just in time to vote in favor of the Declaration.  Stone didn’t go on to become President like John Adams or Vice President like Elbridge Gerry. Instead, Stone was simply a Patriot who worked hard, served his country, and put his life on the line by signing the Declaration of Independence—a document that King George III viewed as treason.

How wonderful to live in a country where such a statement can be made.  He “simply” put his life on the line.  Nothing too flashy?!  ;)

Thawinadichtow his mark & seal.

Also spelled Thowinoduchtow. Mohawk. Here representing Mohawk homelands that spread across areas known today as eastern New York State, parts of western Vermont and parts of southern Ontario and Quebec.

Thawinadichtow is another of eight Mohawk leaders to sign this document, detailing the transfer of land at the site of Fort Hunter west of so-called Albany, New York (we’ve previously shared pictograph marks from this document by Asras, Cornelius, Craine, Sander and Thenusskesack). Fort Hunter was constructed several years prior to the 1714 date of this deed, built by colonizers at the mouth of the Schoharie Creek, on the Mohawk River. Mohawk signers of this document identify themselves as representatives of “we the three Races or Tribes of the Mohaugs Indians the Turtle, Wolf & B[ea]r.”

Signed in “Mohaughs Cuntry” May 14, 1716. Seen at Chapin Special Collections Library, Williams College.

Fangs of Fortune episodes 1-3

Random thoughts as I was watching.

Spoilers under cut.

ok wow, what an entrance. This is the first time I've seen Hou Minghao have so much physical presence. Usually his characters don't have much intimidation factor even if they're powerful - like I love Wang Ye but he looks tiny next to Zhuge Qing even as he's dominating the field, and Baili Dongjun looks like a 公子哥儿 (rich kid). And Wu Xie is, well, Wu Xie. Here, though, he is believable as a 1000-year old demon who can crook his fingers and kill everyone around him.

I think the costuming is a big factor - he's usually in the belted young master outfits that emphasize his slim waist, whereas here he wears cloaks and layers that conceal his figure. (The big furs remind me of a cat puffing up to look bigger :D) But also that slow deliberate stride. A different kind of murder strut, but very very effective.

The umbrella! Special shout-out to that fantastic prop. I adore the little red beads. Also, sheathing his sword in the umbrella??? Um....

omg the tension between them is delicious - are you satisfied with your gift (me)? now are you satisfied? (holding up his chained wrists). *fans self* I am looking not at all respectfully.

I'm glad to see Chen Duling with a little more sass - so far I've seen her as the sad ex (MLC), the sad wife/mother (MJTY), and as the sad orphan (ALHJ - though I only watched to ep 8 so far). I was enjoying her banter and shipping her and the lying demon :( Except what the heck was she doing putting two heaping spoonfuls of salt (sugar) in her noodles? Wasting food!

She still got nerfed, though. *sigh*

Her meeting with Zhu Yan is hilarious - he is so impressive as he just sets himself free, demonstrating his immense power, taunting Zhuo Yichen - looking him in the eye as he saunters around the dungeon and locks him in - that magnificent walk down the halls as he shows he can control all the jailers. Then he's like a kicked puppy with Wen Xiao when she drugs him and threatens to keep doing it.

It's so interesting the way he interacts with her versus Zhuo Yichen - he often 賣慘 with her - acting pitiable so he seems less powerful, like pretending to stay drugged (when he's able to just pop up) or pretending to be passed out on the floor when she comes to bring the token him. Versus with Zhuo Yichen he's usually showing off how powerful he is and how much knowledge he has. (There's so much flirting with both of them, though!)

Such a death wish though :((((((((

Clearly Zhuo Yichen is going to regret that vow in the future.

Another gorgeous entrance - blowing up the water jugs and then pacing through, and I adore the bit where he points at the damage and is like, isn't it obvious?

Oh the poor naive fools - the minute I heard the bad guy say just put your thumbprint at the end I knew what was going to happen. But it really irritated me - who stamps (signs) any document at the end, leaving a huge expanse of blank space? And they knew it's their enemy putting it in front of them: at this point they should be at the highest wariness. (I realize it's duplicate originals, so they could argue against any tampering, but at the same time, why take the risk, especially if the emperor seems to favor their enemy?) I hate plot points that rely on our heroes being making an obvious mistake. I mean, they are already using a magical plot. Why not just make it some other type of magic to change the words entirely?

Ah, is this another contract that the signers will regret?? Wow he's such a flirt. Leaning in like that to take her pen??? She has immense self control!

Oh my, this show really has a thing about gorgeous men in chains, hm? The jealous ex appears! Very much getting that vibe of crazy ex boyfriend here.

Yowza when Zhu Yan said kneel.... wow. Hot.

Awww and he got the fish demon medicine? He's such a secret softie.

Oh ho, here we go with the jealous ex Li Lun.

Geez, did he get even hotter with the demon marks????

Ok, when I first saw the trailer I was not vibing with his style - I saw the director got some criticism for making the actors ugly. But I think it really works - Zhu Yan is very alien, very powerful, and very very very very hot.

Can a Co-Signer’s Credit Score Improve Your Loan Approval Chances?

Applying for a personal loan can be challenging, especially if you have a low credit score or limited credit history. In such cases, having a co-signer with a strong credit profile can significantly improve your chances of loan approval. A co-signer acts as a guarantor, providing lenders with the confidence that the loan will be repaid on time. But how exactly does a co-signer’s credit score impact your loan approval chances? Let’s explore.

Understanding the Role of a Co-Signer in a Personal Loan

A co-signer is an individual—usually a close family member or friend—who agrees to take joint responsibility for your personal loan. If you fail to make timely payments, the co-signer is legally obligated to repay the loan on your behalf. This arrangement reduces the lender’s risk, making them more likely to approve your loan application.

How a Co-Signer’s Credit Score Affects Your Loan Approval

A co-signer’s credit score plays a crucial role in determining your loan eligibility. Here’s how it influences your chances:

1. Increases the Likelihood of Loan Approval

If your credit score is below the lender’s required threshold, adding a co-signer with a high credit score (typically above 750) can significantly increase your chances of getting approved for a personal loan.

2. Helps Secure Lower Interest Rates

Lenders use credit scores to assess the risk associated with lending money. A co-signer with a strong credit score can help you secure a lower interest rate, saving you money over the loan tenure.

3. Improves Loan Terms and Conditions

With a reliable co-signer, lenders may offer better repayment terms, such as longer loan tenure, reduced processing fees, and higher loan amounts.

4. Strengthens Your Creditworthiness

A co-signed loan gives you an opportunity to build or repair your credit history. By making timely payments, you can improve your credit score and eventually qualify for loans on your own.

Who Can Be a Co-Signer for Your Personal Loan?

Not everyone qualifies as a co-signer. To be eligible, a co-signer must:

Have a strong credit score (750 or above is ideal).

Possess a stable income to demonstrate repayment capacity.

Have a good debt-to-income ratio (DTI) to assure lenders of their financial stability.

Be willing to take full responsibility for the loan if you default.

Steps to Apply for a Personal Loan with a Co-Signer

If you’re considering adding a co-signer to your personal loan application, follow these steps:

1. Choose a Suitable Co-Signer

Select someone with an excellent credit score and stable financial background.

2. Check Loan Eligibility Requirements

Each lender has specific eligibility criteria for co-signed loans. Ensure both you and your co-signer meet these requirements.

3. Submit a Joint Loan Application

Both you and your co-signer will need to provide financial documents, including credit reports, income proof, and identification details.

4. Get Loan Approval and Sign the Agreement

Once the lender approves your personal loan, both parties must sign the loan agreement. The co-signer should understand their financial responsibility before signing.

Risks Involved for a Co-Signer

While having a co-signer improves your loan approval chances, it also comes with certain risks for the co-signer:

Liability for Loan Repayment: If you default, the co-signer must repay the outstanding loan amount.

Credit Score Impact: Late or missed payments will negatively affect both your and your co-signer’s credit scores.

Debt Burden: The loan appears on the co-signer’s credit report, potentially affecting their ability to get new credit.

How to Minimize Risks for Your Co-Signer

To ensure your co-signer doesn’t face financial difficulties, follow these best practices:

Make Timely Payments: Set up automatic payments to avoid delays.

Communicate Regularly: Keep your co-signer informed about your loan repayment status.

Refinance the Loan: Once your credit score improves, consider refinancing the loan to remove the co-signer’s liability.

Final Thoughts

A co-signer’s credit score can significantly improve your chances of securing a personal loan with favorable terms. However, co-signing a loan is a major financial responsibility, so it’s essential to choose a reliable co-signer and ensure timely repayments to maintain both your and your co-signer’s financial health. If used wisely, this strategy can help you build credit and achieve your financial goals while securing the loan you need.
