Do you still read BL novels? What languages do you read/understand? :0 what do you think of ‘queer’ literature in the west versus other places? Do you ever read such work?
I read translations of Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Thai BL novels. While I understand a bunch of languages (Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada, Hindi, Urdu, English), I am dyslexic. So reading is anyway difficult.
Since I have been reading for a while now, I can understand Chinese, Korean and Japanese works even when they are not translated well. Over the years, I have learnt enough BL vocabulary and separately learned some of the most common words, popular slang, etc. in those languages. I am still new to Thai novels, so they are a bit difficult to machine translate but I am getting the hang of it now.
I sometimes listen to danmei audio drama adaptations on MaoerFM. And in case of BL manga, if their drama CDs are available, I usually read while listening to them.
As for distinction between what's considered 'queer' literature in the west and elsewhere, honestly I don't care since I read everything. And I am always quick to notice the similarities. Here are some 'queer' works that might give you an idea of what I mean:
Bei Cheng Tian Street (北城天街) by FeiTian YeXiang - for the fans of Love in the Big City
Less by Andrew Sean Greer - PSA for Malayalis, Less machan visits Thiruvananthapuram at one point and it goes as you would expect it to 😑
Faggots by Larry Kramer
This Arab Is Queer
The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy
Hot Head by Damon Suede
Pride by Gengoroh Tagame
Confessions of a Mask by Yukio Mishima
Ang Ang: Hard-boiled Love by Gwendolyn
BLT by Konohara Narise
I have delved into some interesting differences in my pervious posts 😅
I also read a bit of academic output, especially (auto-)ethnography, to get an idea of the ground realities of queer people in BL producing countries.

Ford Edge 2015 - Happy Auto

(Normally the tumblr auto grid looks like shit but this actually works)
New characters up on my artfight
I’ve also changed the descriptions and permissions on three other characters, No Name, The Goddess, and Adeline, to better reflect their current backstories
New characters are:
Greer (sister of The Goddess)
Freyr (good deer)
Nym (bad deer)
Taiga (happy man)
Nalah (unhappy woman)
. All the new ones except for Greer have like 6 paragraph descriptions because I needed to cover my bases
The wounds on Nalah are sun burns I wasn’t sure on how to draw them I may have made them too graphic so I’ll tag for gore and body horror
Also I dug for awhile to get the kanji for Taiga’s name but I probably got something wrong, its supposed to mean gentle/calm and river

Sabbat Martyr- Part 15
@the-fluffy-underbelly
FOURTEEN SABBAT MARTYR
“There was no formal structure to the pilgrim army. It was essentially a gigantic mob. But the Beati had come to them in the agridomes, drawing men like Alphant out of the crowd, and telling the pilgrims to look to them for leadership. Most already did. Sabbat had unerringly picked on those people who had some military background, or on men or women who had already become the natural leaders of pilgrim bands.” They may be civilians, but Sabbat is smart. And a Saint.
“Innokenti and his vanguard swept through it all, lit by the glittering fires of his psyker malice and by the lethal ribbons of energy that were his blood-rage made manifest. The invaders surged in behind them.” Cool, but terrible.
“Such was the scale of the staircases, the war machines were able to climb five or six abreast, with Retinue and Blood Pact troopers rushing on foot in their wake, firing up at the Imperials dug in around the ornate basalt rails of the concourse level.” Those are huge staircases.
“He saw Rawne and Caffran for a moment blasting into the enemy as they ran forward. Feygor, kneeling over a fallen Ghost and firing on auto. Varl, Criid, Obel, Domor, Meryn, their men around them as they charged into the enemy mass. He saw Daur shoot a Blood Pact officer through the head. He saw Brostin spraying flamer-fire into a collapsing pack of Retinue troops. He saw straight silver and blood and courage.” This would make a good montage in a movie.
“Every blow they exchanged, every strike, crashed like thunder. Sparks flew. Shockwaves from the meeting blades threw men around them — friend and foe alike — off their feet Hideous corposant writhed and seared around the Magister. Cold green fire, in the form of a great eagle with its wings unfurled, lit up the Saint.” Epic.
“The sound of her voice was so clear, so loud, it blew out the great windows of the concourse in a vast blizzard of glass.” Mega epic!
“Gaunt looked and realised the old sniper was right. Dorden, Daur, Nessa, Milo and Derin had all been part of Corbec’s inspired mission on the Shrineworld. Apart from Corbec himself, the only ones missing were the ones no longer alive. Greer, Vamberfeld and Bragg.
“Try would’ve wanted me to fill in for him,” Larkin said. “It mattered to him. She mattered. I… I can see why now.”” ;_; Poor Bragg. Poor Larkin.
“Lijah Cuu. Murderer. Rapist. Killer of Bragg. Killer of Sehra Muril.” >:(
I noticed on this reread that the misdirections indicating that Milo was the killer were fewer than I remembered.
““I just fething wish I could have got a bead on him sooner,” said Larkin. His voice was low, as if strained by massive emotion.
“What do you mean?” Gaunt asked. He stirred up and looked back down the hall. Pain flared through his back, but what he saw hurt him so much more.
Twenty metres back down the hall, face down in a pool of blood, Colm Corbec lay dead.” And Exhibit A in why I hate Lijah Cuu.
EPILOGUE
“Then the reinforcement fleet arrived, sent by the Warmaster. The initial fleet engagement lit up the night sky. A far greater and more bloody combat than is recorded in this account then took place. Over a period of weeks, the Magister’s forces were driven out of the Civitas, and extinguished in a final pitched land battle in the Stove Hills.” One of the few places that indicates that this is an account being written later. Each book opens with a quote from a historical text about the Sabbat Crusade, but that’s treated separately from the narrative itself.
“As history records, it would not be easy. But for the while, the advantage was entirely his.” And again, after a bit that indicates that the Crusade was ultimately victorious. It never says anything about the status of the Ghosts, though.
“Gaunt looked at Milo. He seemed happy and terrified, all at once. He ran over to Gaunt as if to hug him and then, at the last minute, stopped and threw a hard salute.” Awww.
Soric goes away with the Inquisition in tears. Not to be seen again for a long time.
“Corbec rolled up his sleeves. He knew this work. He liked it. He’d stay awhile and help out.” ;_;
““Friend. Brother. Ghost,” said Gaunt.” ;_; whyyyyy

allstate insurance greer sc
allstate insurance greer scissorhands insurance in the midwest Insurance companies aren’t the only ones to consider when a customer buys policies from an insurance company. Compare states by premiums in our nationwide search, and consider your options for car insurance: While the majority of states have enough liability minimum limits for cars with higher liability limits, states with more lenient insurance requirements are more costly. California, Florida, and Georgia all have at least some liability insurance requirements. Allstate ranks among the top 10 cheapest car insurers nationally. If you’re shopping for cheap liability car insurance, it pays to compare rates and review. Insurance rates are affected by the insurer and a company s financial strength and claims ratings, among other factors, for a specific company. The best approach, however, is to ask for quotes from multiple companies and review their coverage to find the best price for your situation. By doing so, you won’t be facing an uphill battle — it just might be worth your while. If. allstate insurance greer scum) is a scam. It has been said allstate will insure my motorcycle and the reason for the insurance premium is because of a lack of knowledge about bikes and motorcycle drivers. Most of the insurance companies insure only motorcycles which has caused huge inconvenience. The insurance of a motorcycles is the same but they just wanted to get the most for free. They took my money and now the insurance won’t cover it. They say “we will cover it”. They will take it as compensation and that is not the end of the story. As far as the bike and owner is concerned she will have a say in choosing who gets paid for it. She is responsible for the insurance, not some driver and they need to cover it their way. So for the time being I think we should get a similar insurance. I have been told by my insurance agent that she is in charge of the accident and she is the only one to have complete control over. allstate insurance greer scannity. I went through the whole experience of the company. There are no complaints whatsoever with the company. Everything was fine, I paid 50 extra. They have a great staff, great customer support, and they really like to have my insurance needs answered by insurance agents. My daughter received a very nice, professional and compassionate car insurance policy for a very reasonable price. She also took care of the car after we were in an accident and took the necessary steps to keep it in good condition. As a customer, my car was never in need of replacing her vehicle and I thought I had a safe car, but a really tough case to settle against them. Not only was my car in a good condition, but they fixed my car without going through the normal process. I am very disappointed in this auto insurance company. I am very happy with them. I have a car that I have had for over 30 years, and my father is from my hometown. Unfortunately I was rear-ended while.

BEST ANSWER: Try this site where you can compare quotes from different companies :insurance4hquotes.xyz
insurance companies in greer sc
insurance companies in greer scariest states in the country. You won’t see these giant companies stamp out this kind of policy, although some states may have banned them altogether. And if this kind of policy is your thing, maybe you’ll need to look elsewhere, with your personal driving record. Now you’re a young driver. You have a new car, and you’re getting ready to sign up for higher-risk auto insurance. You’re driving slowly and the insurer is working to make sure you don’t have any violations. That’s not a good thing: You’re driving slowly and the insurer is looking for more money than you had to pay before the policy kicks in. Compare . insurance companies in greer screeds. The following rates do cover some of the biggest brands you can get. There’s no guarantee they will work out the best for you, but they could be helpful. My wife and I had Tri-Band. I have been paying it for 6 years. I would like to see how much they cost now. Any suggestions? I think I know I will want insurance with them. I have had insurance with Blue Cross for 4 years. My wife has had her prescription taken off my prescription because she never checked it! I only had Tri-Band car which we had for a year. Tri-Band has a lot of problems! I have already had Tri-Band with their insurance. They said the bill was from the one to the next month. Do I have insurance with Tri Band? They only care about my credit. I don t want Tri-Band to come to the car, what does insurance coverage do for me if I choose Tri-Band? Tri-Band. insurance companies in greer scissor parks, for instance, may be outfitted with anti-theft devices and an automatic maintenance tool. Most insurance companies give you a few options about which insurer may be a good fit for you, and you can also call around to see what they offer, or call a representative to check prices in their network. If you’re ready, we just need some preliminary data for your test. So, we got a driver’s license number and checked out all the insurance companies in Florida. Each had been given different pricing. But the most affordable, if you’re driving as licensed as a high-risk driver, is West Palm Beach–Glasgow, Florida. The cheapest, with about 20 percent less than the cheapest, is with Florida’s . Then I put my license number into online (this is a special kind of study, of course) and checked out the cheapest, with almost the same rates as your next other,.

Now, he’s focused on establishing Game Changers as a reputable sports bar. Once a staunch adversary of social media, Del puts the success of the bar first and gives it a try, using a fake name of course.

She’s been best friends With Terra Greer for about the same amount of time. So imagine Rylan’s surprise when she inadvertently learns the identity of the guy who responded to her drunken chat and continued to share explicit ways he could bring her pleasure.

With the highly anticipated new Halloween movie, executive produced by John Carpenter and arriving in theaters in October 2018, about to begin filming, co-writer Danny McBride has just revealed a few new details about the project, mostly confirming what Carpenter already said, that the new film will in fact present an “alternate” version of events following the original 1978 Halloween, ignoring all existing sequels, and he’s really hoping it doesn’t “piss people off”.
Following last night’s series finale of HBO’s Vice Principals, the show’s creators McBride and his Rough House Pictures partner David Gordon Green will now turn their attention to Haddonfield and the upcoming return of Michael Myers to movie screens. Speaking to Yahoo today (Happy #MichaelMyersMonday!), McBride not only confirms what we already knew about the new timeline, but further confesses that he really hopes “we don’t f*** it up” for fans of the franchise.
Explaining how they got Jamie Lee Curtis to return as Laurie Strode, McBride says, “I’m a humongous Halloween fan, so when David and I got approached about doing this from Blumhouse, the first thing David and I said was, ‘We’ll come up with a take, but we have to pitch it to Carpenter. If he’s not interested, we’re definitely not into making this.’ And (executive producer) Jason Blum was totally on board with that. That’s exactly what he wanted to do anyway. So we came up with our pitch. We pitched to Carpenter, and he was into it, which kind of blew David and me away, but I still think nobody was really talking about Jamie. I think everyone was kind of on the mindset of it’d be a grab to get her, but no one really knew if we would be able to.
“So Dave and I just busted our ass on this script to really make that Laurie Strode character something she wouldn’t be able to say no to. When we finished the script, we sent it to her, and she said she was in. So we just flipped out. We were over the moon about her involvement.”
Further confirming what we already know, McBride says, “We’re kind of ignoring all the films past the first one. It picks up after the first one, but it’s sort of an alternate reality. It’s as if the first Halloween ended in a slightly different way.”
Expressing a refreshing desire to honestly please the most hardcore fans of the franchise, McBride says, “I just hope that we don’t f*** it up and piss people off. This is such a diehard fan base. You don’t want horror fans being your enemies because they show up at your house with masks on.
“We are diehard fans of Halloween. We’re watching all the sequels and where things have taken left turns here and there that maybe bites for fans, and at least trying to deliver what we would have wanted to see. Hopefully that will line up with most fans.
“I think you should be very scared. I mean, this isn’t a comedy at all. I think there was, like, maybe one joke on the page, but the rest is straight horror. So hopefully it gets in people’s heads and keeps them up late at night.”
Judy Greer was recently reported to be in talks to play Karen Strode, who is Laurie Strode’s daughter in the new film. We’re still awaiting official cast announcements, which should be forthcoming pretty much imminently.
As we recently reported, Halloween 2018 will begin filming any day now in Charleston, South Carolina.
Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.
Master of horror John Carpenter will executive produce and serve as creative consultant on this film, joining forces with cinema’s current leading producer of horror, Jason Blum (Get Out, Split, The Purge, Paranormal Activity). Inspired by Carpenter’s classic, filmmakers David Gordon Green and Danny McBride crafted a story that carves a new path from the events in the landmark 1978 film, and Green also directs.
Halloween will be produced by Malek Akkad, whose Trancas International Films has produced the Halloween series since its inception. Green and McBride will executive produce under their Rough House Pictures banner.
Halloween will be distributed worldwide by Universal Pictures.
You can read everything we know so far about Halloween 2018 here.
As I’m sure you are well aware, 2018 marks the 40th anniversary of the release of John Carpenter’s original 1978 Halloween. It is also worth noting that the film’s release date also happens to be Michael Myers’ birthday (in 1957), according to the original franchise canon.
The new Halloween arrives in theaters on October 19, 2018.
Keep watching this site for updates on the return of Michael Myers and all the latest news on the next Halloween movie!

MTSU Phillips Bookstore, now operated by Barnes & Noble College, reopened for business Tuesday, June 16, as the rest of the university began a Phase I resumption of more on-campus activity since moving to remote courses and work in March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
MTSU alumnus and new bookstore manager Natalie Karousatos said store hours will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday for the time being.
Because the Student Union will remain closed for now, Karousatos said the best entry way will be an exterior entrance for customers on the side facing MTSU Boulevard.
Barnes & Noble College was awarded the contract to operate the bookstore through a competitive bid process, but was unable to open in early April with the university scaling back on-campus activities because of COVID-19.
Coronavirus health protocols for MTSU Phillips Bookstore will include all customers and visitors wearing face coverings and social distancing — Karousatos said the store floors are well marked with arrows and signage to keep at least six feet apart.
“We finally can open our doors,” said Karousatos, who added the bookstore was able and will continue to operate with online sales (www.shopmtsu.com). “We’re happy to be opening, Barnes & Noble is very excited to be on campus and I’m happy to be back here.”
Karousatos (Class of 1991 with a degree in broadcast journalism) returns to campus after six months as operations and community relations manager at Barnes & Noble at Vanderbilt University. The Lebanon, Tennessee, native has worked with Barnes & Noble since 2005, joining the company when she lived in Oklahoma City.
The manager said the bookstore has a Champion apparel (T-shirts and sweatshirts) buy one, get one half-off sale and offers a competitive textbook price-match program.
“We want to be a good campus partner,” Karousatos said. “We want to be our students’ choice for books and technology. Barnes & Noble College prides itself in customer service.”
Karousatos said MTSU Phillips Bookstore has a small staff, but is looking to hire employees for this fall. People can apply at www.bncjobs.com.
For more information, call 615-898-2700 during business hours or visit here.

Madonna. Madge. Maddie. Mad. Mary, mother of Jesus. Whatever you call her, one thing is for sure, Little Miss Madddiepants has successfully survived decades in the public eye. Love her or hate her: she certainly has got one thing totally right; she reinvents herself. All the time. Even through the menopause.
He’s leaving.
My youngest, aged 18: off to uni. The last time I felt this type of anticipated pain, was when I drove my beloved border collie to the vets to be euthanized. That feeling of utter despair, (even though I knew I was doing the one and only right thing), I am reminded of now, in that I’m snatching every available second, to tidy his hair, stroke his back…get his food…knowing this will be one of my very, very last chances…end of an era….
Perfect timing: menopause right alongside your nest getting thoroughly emptied.
Okay my son is not dying; I’m being over-dramatic. But him leaving is, for me, another painful, albeit inevitable, life-changing occurrence. It IS a rather big corner.
What else would I want, though? He’s been successful enough to get to go to uni: well done me. Good parenting. Wahoo. I didn’t even encourage him to have a gap year. I could have maybe got another year out of ‘what’s for dinner?‘ or ‘can I have some money please?‘
But actually its not all about those duties you’re seemingly constantly harangued into doing….its way more than that….In my case..well…how the hell am I gonna cope without him?!
He looks after the (new) dog when I’m working; he helps me work my camera; he’s the sole, in-house (tremendous standard fyi) cake-baker; he even asks how I am. Okay, to be completely truthful, he has practically become my counsellor. I feel physical pain, in my gut, that he’s going.
My fluffy nest feels like its being turned inside out.

So why is Mary, Mother of Jesus (bet she was an incredibly proud mum) relevant to Empty Nest Syndrome?
Madonna is really interested in herself.

She takes time to work on her entire image. Sure, she has people to do stuff for her, but ultimately, she is the one asking for ideas on clothing, image and hair styles. She wants the best for herself. And why shouldn’t she? So she’s busy. With herself. And that help heaps, if you’re feeling that final severing of that strong, yet intangible, umbilical cord, as that ‘taking-to-uni’ day arrives. You need to pick yourself up and at least try and look good.
So, get your inner Madonna out and focus.
On you.
Its great that you’re not needed anymore. Come on; it is! You will now have a bit/a lot more time to consider some self-reinvention. Cause, if nothing else, it will stop you from wallowing in your own tears, and encourage you to rediscover YOU. Someone other than just his mum.
Mary had a ball
Maybe, like me, you’re realizing that it’s much less how you’re defined by others, but more how you’ve inadvertently defined yourself – “my son���, “my angel”….”my co-dependent”….”my rock” ..”my ‘he-makes-me-feel-needed-and-useful-and-stuff'”…”my I can’t fucking cope without him!”
I can. You can. Once I stopped crying; I drank a bottle of vin rouge while watching shit tv, I then decided that I’d better get to bed and wake up in an altogether more acceptable mood.
Upon awakening, I dragged out my inner Madonna and decided to work from the outside in. So my personal reinvention began with a fabulous fake tan.
It stops you from crying. Cry, and pay with streak marks down the face; therefore, keep it together bitch. This fab faux tan instructs to use at night, but it also works beautifully during the day – especially if you need to make yourself happy/slightly happier/less miserable. And its so easy to use, as long as you’re not balling your eyes out, you can’t go wrong.

But I didn’t stop there. I then immersed myself in the fabulous melting coconut balm
I took myself to a far off island and lovingly massaged beautiful, dreamy, coconut oil into my tired, dry, menopausal skin…..
James Read products are very user-friendly. I literally LOVE using the coconut melting balm. It is beautiful to massage in – the smell and texture takes you away from it all. This particular tanning brand understands that people are generally complete rubbish at applying their own fake tan, so it compensates in products that do the work for you. They moisturize as well as any luxury skin brand does, while giving you the tan you want – superbly natural.

However, if you do need more help, maybe from the inside out, then read Germaine Greer inspirational book The Change
Although arch feminist, Greer slates sex a bit much in this read; her general stance on how to deal with the change, for me also helps in how to deal with life when you’re facing up to the fact that you’re no longer as needed as you were before…
Come on girls: lets VOGUE
Rule number 6: Empty Nest Syndrome. Dig deep, it’s gonna be okay: just find your inner Madonna. Madonna. Madge. Maddie. Mad. Mary, mother of Jesus. Whatever you call her, one thing is for sure, …

The New York City Mission Society has been on the frontlines of the war on poverty for more than 200 years. The organization’s portfolio of educational, workforce development, cultural enrichment, and community-building programs make a positive, long-term impact on the City’s most underserved communities. Each year, they serve more than 12,000 children and families throughout New York City with programs, supportive services, and community events. On April 5th, more than 340 people attended the New York City Mission Society’s annual Champions for Children Gala at the Mandarin Oriental in Columbus Circle. The gala raised over half million dollars. Co-chaired by Jean Shafiroff and Katrina Peebles, the benefit honored legendary actress and singer Diahann Carroll and entrepreneur Don Peebles, as well as recognized lifetime members of the Mission Society’s Board of Directors.
The evening started with cocktails, followed by a program with dinner, music, and dancing. The Gala was emceed by WABC News Anchor Bill Ritter, a longtime supporter of the Mission Society. Performers included Kathy Sledge, from Sister Sledge; singer Alex Donner and his Orchestra, and students enrolled in the Mission Society’s free afterschool music education program, GRIOT. Mrs. Peebles congratulated the audience on a record-breaking dinner as the attendance was nearly 50% larger than last year and the event sold out. Donahue Peebles III took to the stage to present the award to his father. Before doing so, he mentioned his father’s many accolades, including his avid supporter of mentoring to the youth, serving as Chairman of the Board of the Congressional Black Caucus, serving on the Board of Directors of the YMCA of Greater New York, and so much more. Don Peebles expressed his gratitude for the honors and mentioned the three best days of his life, September 12, 1994 the day he married Katrina Peebles “the love of my life, my best friend, and partner in life”; November 11, 2002, the day his daughter Chloe Alexandra Peebles was born and “today April 5th – not only because I am receiving this award but it’s the day Donahue was born in 1994!” He then went on to wish his son a happy 23rdbirthday.
As the night went on and guests dined on a delicious 3-course dinner, former New York City Mayor David Dinkins presented legendary actress, Diahann Carroll with the Champions for Children Award. Ms. Carroll was the first black actress in television history to star in her own series, Julia, on NBC. Her career flourished as she starred in so many amazing films like Claudine, Carmen Jones, Paris Blues, Porgy & Bess, Hurry Sundown, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, and Eve’s Bayou. She’s also served as an ambassador and national spokesperson for Lifetime Television’s breast cancer awareness campaign and has been recognized for raising awareness about HIV and AIDS. Her speech garnered a standing ovation. It was warm and thoughtful. She reminisced about her time in NYC at the Mission School, her parents and growing up in the big apple. She remarked on the impressive diversity in the five-star hotel ballroom.
