Another Jew on here commented that people were going onto Wikipedia and removing references to certain people's Jewishness, and I just saw for myself that this is true. As a Jew and a fan of old movies and history, I was looking up a list of Jewish actors on Wikipedia. I saw Tina Louise (you know, from Gilligan's Island) pop up. So I popped over to her actual page on Wikipedia. And there were zero references to her being Jewish. So I hopped on over to the Wayback Machine (bless you, Internet Archive) and put in the URL for her Wikipedia page. And wouldn't ya know it: before 10/7, there were at least 3 to 5 references to her Jewishness at any given time on her Wikipedia page. Wtf is happening.

Propaganda
Nick (Angel on My Shoulder) - Ok, so who's in charge of assigning shoulder demons? I have a request and I need it to be THIS GUY. First off, he's so petty and bitchy and spends all of the movie making stupid faces at the plights of the mortals he messes with. Seriously, the lighting in this movie is there JUST to highlight Nick's smirk and this is the peak of cinematic lighting design. He's a smarmy little devil (haha!) with a cunning plan and gets apropriately fussy when things don't go his way. He coos and croons his way into anybody's heart and when he said millions of women adore him, I believe him. He smirks while dragging the entire human race and I'd sell my soul to give him a lil kiss. <3
John Jasper (The Mystery of Edwin Drood) - Your Honor, he's a freak (affectionate). Claude is perfect when he's brooding and committing murder.
This is round two for The King of the Claudes tournament and other matchups can be found here!
Additional Propaganda under the cut!
Nick
Words cannot express how much I love his character UGH! If he were the one whispering in my ear, I would be so tempted to do whatever. He's snarky, he's sexy, and his zingers are otherworldly (wink wink).

Hispanic Heritage Month + Band of Brothers
For the last day of Hispanic Heritage Month (Sept. 15 - Oct. 15), I rolled up my sleeves to do some research on Latinos who served in Easy Company.
Here's who I found…
Antonio C. "Tony" Garcia
Here's the bio & gif set I made for him:
Ynez M. "Tito" Mendoza
Ynez was born September 22, 1925 in California. His parents, Jose and Carlota, were both born in Mexico and had immigrated to the U.S.
He enlisted in Los Angeles in January 1944, and joined Easy Company as a replacement. In October 1944, he was wounded in the lower leg by artillery, but returned to the line December 1944.
After the war, he married and had 3 children. He died on June 30, 2011 at the age of 85.
Wiliam S. "Guillermo" Metzler
William was born and raised in Naco, Arizona. His parents, Francisco and Julia, were born in Hermosillo, in the Mexican state of Sonora. They married, and later immigrated with their first two sons to Arizona, where William and his other siblings were later born.
He was living in Los Angeles when he volunteered for the U.S. Army in August 1942. He was one of the original members of Easy Company and trained at Toccoa.
He was killed in action in Normandy on June 24, 1944, at the age of 22.
Sergio G. Moya
Sergio was born on February 24, 1921, in San Francisco, California.
In February 1943, he enlisted in the U.S. Army. He was one of the original members of Easy Company and trained at Toccoa.
He was on the C-47 plane with Lt. Meehan that was shot down over Normandy by German anti-aircraft fire on June 6th, 1944 (D-Day). He died at the age of 23.
Joseph "Joe" Ramirez
Here's the bio & gif set I made for him:

The worst part about reading in a genre where you have low expectations (in this case, Christian historical fiction) is that when a book impresses you, you have no idea if it's actually good or if you're just overly impressed because it was a fraction of a degree better than the usual garbage.
#basically lately anytime i read a christian fiction book that isn't romance-based i find myself surprised by the quality#i do think that some christian publishers are getting better#and trying to tell stories that dig deeper into real faith and messy issues#instead of making only vapid squeaky clean prayer-filled tropefests#but i'm not sure *how much* better#because anything above the low bar feels like great literature#the most recent is 'in a far-off land' by stephanie landsem#and let me tell you setting the prodigal son in 1930s hollywood is a genius concept#i have some issues with the history and the mystery#but the characters!#it has been a long time since i cried this hard over a book#several chapters of solid waterworks#(and i also have the issue of figuring out if it's actually that moving or if i'm just hormonal/sleep-deprived)#i keep thinking about this book but also i worry about recommending because what if it's actually terrible by normal book standards?#(also the author DOES NOT understand the seal of confession and i was SHOCKED to find that she's actually catholic)#but also looking at the reviews makes it clear that if most of christian fiction is vapid garbage it's these reviewers' fault#here you have something that's digging into sin and darkness and justice and mercy and these people are just#'how can it call itself christian fiction if it only mentions god at the end?'#are we reading the same book this WHOLE THING is about god! and humanity and our fallen nature and how this breaks relationships!#your pearl-clutching anytime someone tries to get even a tiny bit realistic is destroying this genre#i'm gonna run out of tags so i'll stop now
