What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?
*looks at all the comics I made*
Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?
But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...
...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.
Palestinian pop singer Bashar Murad is hoping to represent Iceland at the Eurovision Song Contest in May and bring “a Palestinian voice to the main stage”.
[...] Murad is competing in the national final with a song co-written by Einar Stefansson of the Icelandic band Hatari, known for raising a banner showing Palestinian flags during the 2019 Eurovision Contest.
[...] In Iceland’s domestic qualification, singers of any nationality can participate if they sing their song in the first semifinal in Icelandic.
Murad, who was born in and lives in occupied East Jerusalem, said it was difficult to learn the song in Icelandic, but he found some similarities to Arabic.
His entry, Wild West, tells the story of challenging boundaries and chasing dreams against all odds.
“I wanted to illustrate how many obstacles as Palestinians we have to go through in order to be heard … we’re excluded from every mainstream platform,” he said.
“Everyone has theories about my participation. And everyone is politicising my existence when I’m really just a human who had a dream and applied for this competition fair and square.”
When asked if Murad wants Israel to participate in the
competition, he said, “Of course, I don’t want my occupier to be there.”
“But my main focus right now is to be able to bring, for the first time in history, a Palestinian voice to the main stage.”
Iceland’s domestic ESC qualification, Söngvakeppnin, will be decided today (2 Mar 2024).
The Green lanterns have been busy. They've been follow this path of seemingly one sided beatdowns of Yellow lanterns and liberated planets. They believe they've finally caught up.
Fright Knight stands on a freshly liberated planet with a pile of yellow lantern rings. If he melt down these rings he could forge something great for his young prince. The question is what? The only weapons his liege has wielded are a scythe and a longsword. Both fearsome weapons.
Maybe some armor? The prince doesent have armor. Does he have enough rings for a full set? could he make it black? yellow is not the colors of the prince. The prince wears white and black. Maybe a helm?
He is drawn from his pondering as he see's green light in the night sky. More distractions. This would be the green lantern corps then. Blue, Pink, and Indigo have all met with him and begged him to stop. The Yellow lanterns are needed in the Emotional Spectrum for the prophecy of Blackest Night. He hardly cares but his prince will likely be pulled into the battle in defence of the portal. So he will not kill all the yellow lanterns and Parallax will be spared his wrath. Let him see what these Green Lanterns have to say.
Fright Knight treaty's with the Green Lanterns and is convinced to release some of the rings, but not before he forges a warscythe and a helmet to give the prince. The warscythe is named "The Golden Harvester of terror" and the helm is named "Aegishjalmr".
Danny has no idea what to do with them. He has no idea he will need them on The Blackest Night.
I love watching Phantom where the Raoul is giving it his all and is trying his best to be a good boyfriend and yet Christine is still visually conflicted on choosing him or the literal murderer that lives underground.
