(Dés) Espoir
- Et... il ne te manque pas un peu, des fois? demandé-je d'une petite voix. Ton père je veux dire.
- Celui que j'aurais voulu qu'il soit, oui. Mais la réalité de qui il était, non.
(...)
- Pour toi, les gens ne peuvent pas changer? questionné-je Nathan, un peu perdu.
- C'est dur de renier ceux qui sont les plus proches de toi mais, s'il y a bien un truc que j'ai appris, c'est que ça ne sert à rien de perdre du temps avec des gens qui ne sont pas prêts pour nous, pas prêts à nous accepter tels qu'on est. Bien sûr qu'ils peuvent changer, mais ce ne sera jamais avec certitude. Et puis, surtout, combien de temps ça prendra?
Le jour où le soleil ne s'est plus levé. Nine Gorman & Marie Alhinho

The Duality of Woman: Anais Nin
Tumblr media
Vogue Magazine, Anais Nin talks about being a woman, 15 October 1971
Anais Nin is a woman of duality. It's been a well-known fact for those who know or love her that she is truly a two-sided coin. She said it herself in her book Henry and June,
"I will always be the virgin prostitute, the perverse angel, the two-faced sinister and saintly woman"(bookquoters.com).
From her intense marriages to two different men on opposite sides of the country, to her literary career, to even her personal reflections and essays, Nin was a figure bathed in duality. How does one split the image of Anais Nin ideally in half? You just have to find the seam between diarist and eroticist.
The Diarist
Anais Nin is most well-loved by her adoring fans because of her published diary. As a young girl, Nin wrote her father a letter begging him to return to the family he had abandoned (The Anais Nin Foundation). This was the beginning of Nin's diary, which would be published in seven volumes, with four unexpurgated diaries later appearing after their original publication.
Her diaries were incredibly personal, full of secrets and thoughts she never thought would come to light. The biggest secret within these diaries was that she was married to two different men simultaneously, something she would remove from the diaries upon initial publication. Years later, Nin compiled the removed sections into one volume, the first of her unexpurgated diaries. It was called Henry and June, and detailed the letters and writings the two shared. The duality of Nin stretched throughout every aspect of her life.
These highly intimate journals struck twentieth-century American women directly in their souls. As one journalist famously put it in an article for The Conversation,
Anaïs Nin dreamed, in all senses. She dreamed of lives and possibilities. She dreamed in slumber and allowed her dreams to leak into the day. As I regularly committed the cardinal social sin of recounting my dreams over breakfast, she seemed a soulmate across oceans and generations (Gorman).
These teenage girls and their daydreams were instantly hooked on Nin's likeminded wonder and splendid prose. She became a sensation after the diary publications almost instantly, giving her a decent seat in literary history.
It wouldn't be long until something else gave her another boost of fame.
Tumblr media
Ramon Casas, Decadent Young Woman. After the Dance, 1899
The Eroticist
In the late 1970s, Anais Nine published three volumes of erotic short fiction, each containing approximately ten stories. Despite their popularity, the term erotic is a tad inappropriate. Although she wasn't a follower of the transgressive art movement like Georges Bataille, Anais Nin's erotic stories are more disturbing and controversial than actually arousing.
Nin wrote about such topics as sexual abuse, incest, pedophilia, and other forms of sexual violence within her stories. These works would go on to shock and challenge readers even today (Maza).

The Clocktown Mystery
Chapter Four: The Locked Door
The Chain made their way across the square to where they could all see the grumbling man putting up the last of his posters. Gorman, Time had called him. This was Gorman. The one who had been publicly complaining about having a grudge against the salesman. The one who had sent him a note asking to meet in the Clocktower. The note was in Wild’s slate now, stained red with the Salesman’s blood.
Twilight set his jaw. It still wasn’t definitive proof but… he was very aware that they could be walking into a conversation with a murderer.
Okay. Well. If Twilight was honest, he wasn’t really too worried. After all, Gorman may have been able to overpower the Salesman, but the fact was that he was a balding, middle aged man who clearly had not been keeping himself as in shape as much as he might have. Against nine heroes, he wouldn’t really stand a chance.
Still. Twilight was glad to see that Warriors was keeping a tight hand on Wind.

It's amazing how the minor facts and how-to's you pick up will factor into your readings of everyday experiences.
(citation needed on everything I'm about to say, btw)
Like, tea and coffee. Tea is best when made with boiling water, like 95-100 °C, whereas coffee is better with slightly - slightly - cooler water, like 92-94 or smth. Coffee made with boiling water will be more bitter than coffee made at that 92-94 range, and vice versa with tea.
I first heard this from the British comedy series "Dave Gorman's Modern Life Is Goodish," where he relates it to the rise of coffee shops; a small cafe will use a kettle for their tea and their coffee, leading to a (relatively) cheap, fairly good cup of tea, and a (relatively) cheap, fairly bad-to-okay cup of coffee; in comparison, a coffee shop is likely gonna think they have to use their coffee machine for everything, including tea, leading to a (relatively) expensive, fairly good cup of coffee, and a more expensive, worse cup of tea.
I can't definitely speak to the last point, but I can say that I started factoring in a couple of seconds to let the kettle cool after boiling, and my coffee improved, so I'll at least believe the culinary aspect of not the business angle.
The other reason I reckon this is true is that I'm not the only person I've seen who seems to acknowledge this? The pharmacist at my old job seemed to take the same approach from the opposite direction, turning the kettle off just before it boils - again, this would seem to imply that it's not utter bullshit. The thing that I can't move from my head is that he'd do this to a kettle that was *also being boiled for tea* for his coworkers/the dispensers.
And, I don't know if he knows that he was potentially creating a worse cup of tea for his dispensers just so he could have his better coffee sooner, but it does really exemplify the mindset of pharmacists towards dispensers.
Like, pharmacists are essential for pharmacy, obviously. But so are dispensers? Like, in order to run, a pharmacy needs a Pharmacist, it doesn't matter how many dispensers you have - that's for safety reasons. However, even with a pharmacist, they need at least one other member of staff to check their work or the pharmacy can't dispense medication (according to regulation, I don't doubt that that specific rule is broken at some point in every pharmacy that opens late or on weekends). In theory, that *could* be another pharmacist, but given that dispensers are paid minimum wage, it's gonna be a dispenser nine times out of ten. Like, a pharmacy can't run without a pharmacist, but a pharmacy runs on its dispensers, and there's a concerning trend of pharmacists practically refusing to acknowledge that simple fact or treat dispensers with any respect?
Idk, maybe I've just had bad experiences with pharmacists, or maybe it's because those pharmacists were also acting as Managers, but yeah. Minimum wage work is what keeps things going, if every minimum wage worker went on strike then the world would stop, minimum wage work isn't "unskilled" work, etc.

Television Co-founder Tom Verlaine Dead at 73
- “This man’s importance can’t be overstated,” Scott Metzger says
Tom Verlaine, the guitarist and singer who co-founded the influential punk band Television, has died at 73, Rolling Stone reports.
The magazine cited Patti Smith’s daughter, Jesse Paris Smith, who said Verlaine died Jan. 28 following a “brief illness.”
“More 2023 fretted heartbreak,” a “saddened and bummed” Vernon Reid wrote on Twitter.
“One of the great punk lead stylists. Tom Verlaine was a true downtown hero.”
Television’s 1977 debut, Marquee Moon, is considered a touchstone; it is one of only two albums the band released in its initial incarnation.
“Not many first-time-hearing experiences in my life compare to the first time through Marquee Moon,” drummer Steve Gorman (the Black Crowes/Trigger Hippy) tweeted. “There weren’t any words then, and there really aren’t any right now.
“Damn.”
Guitarist Scott Metzger of Joe Russo’s Almost Dead concurred, calling the LP “a holy grail of creative rock guitar, song craft and arranging that I always end up going back to year after year.
“This man’s importance can’t be overstated,” Metzger wrote on social media. “RIP, Tom Verlaine.”
After Television’s demise, Verlaine would release nine solo albums between 1979 and 2006, even after Television reformed 1992 and continued to play sporadically. But Marquee Moon had the greatest impact; Jason Isbell said he and the 400 Unit walk onstage to that LP “most nights” and he called Verlaine “the realest deal.”
“May Tom Verlaine rest in peace and love,” Todd Rundgren’s Spirit of Harmony Foundation said.

Best Animated Movies on Netflix for a Visual Feast
1. Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022)
Tumblr media
Director: Joel Crawford
Cast: Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Harvey Guillén, Florence Pugh, Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone, Wagner Moura

Sequels released over a decade after the first film are always a gamble, but Puss in Boots: The Last Wish was one of multiple films from 2022 (Top Gun: Maverick, Avatar: The Way of Water) that actually improved upon its predecessor. Eleven years after the first Puss in Boots, the eponymous rascally cat has now burned through eight of his nine lives on his various adventures, reteaming with Kitty Softpaws in pursuit of the Last Wish, which would restore his lives. Along the way, he tries to outrun Goldilocks — hoping to attain the Last Wish for herself — and a menacing wolf who mysteriously stalks Puss. Like other DreamWorks films post-Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the blend of 2-D and 3-D is striking in its visual texture, particularly in action sequences, but its darkly authentic themes of anxiety and the value of friendship resonate most of all.
2. Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017)
Tumblr media
EW grade: B+ (read the review)
Director: David Soren
Cast: Kevin Hart, Ed Helms, Nick Kroll, Thomas Middleditch, Jordan Peele, Kristen Schaal

The wildly popular Captain Underpants book series has kept kids entertained since 1997, but it wasn't until 20 years later that the tighty-whities-clad hero made it to the big screen. The First Epic Movie centers on George and Harold, fourth-grader best friends who create the Captain Underpants comic book and hypnotize their strict principal into becoming the superhero — who doesn't actually have superpowers. Kid-friendly without being too mind-numbing to their parents, Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie has "charm to spare," praises EW's critic, noting it works "mostly because it never tries to be more or less than what it is." It also spawned a series on Netflix, The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants, which ran from 2018 to 2020.
3. The Angry Birds Movie (2016)
Tumblr media
EW grade: B (read the review)
Director: Clay Kaytis and Fergal Reilly
Cast: Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, Sean Penn, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, Bill Hader, Peter Dinklage
While it may be damning with faint praise to give credit to The Angry Birds Movie for not being a total disaster...it really could've been much worse. Based on the wildly popular app of the same name, the film follows Red (voiced by Jason Sudeikis), a talking bird who comes to suspect that his island's new pig inhabitants have malicious intent. Your mileage may vary depending on your tolerance for punny/juvenile humor, but as EW's review notes, the film "delivers a mildly diverting mix of winky meta-jokes and moral lessons, cannily aimed at both the next generation of tiny consumers and their more sophisticated parents.
4. Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio (2022)
Tumblr media
Director: Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson
Cast: Ewan McGregor, David Bradley, Gregory Mann, Burn Gorman, Ron Perlman, John Turturro, Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, Tim Blake Nelson, Christoph Waltz, Tilda Swinton
Codirectors Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson transport the classic story of Pinocchio to World War II-era Italy in this meticulously crafted stop-motion animated film. Following the death of his young son, carpenter Geppetto cuts down a tree and carves a wooden boy, who is subsequently brought to life and dubbed Pinocchio. As the boy ventures to the outside world, he is met with dark forces that attempt to use and corrupt him, all against the backdrop of Benito Mussolini's reign as leader of Fascist Italy. Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio is a darker take on the tale compared to the well-known Disney adaptation (which also received a far-inferior live-action remake in 2022). From the fraught setting to the detailed creature designs, del Toro and Gustafson create a distinct world while providing valuable life lessons to viewers of all ages. The film became the first Netflix production to win the Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
5. The Sea Beast (2022)
Tumblr media
Director: Chris Williams
Cast: Karl Urban, Zaris-Angel Hator, Jared Harris, Marianne Jean-Baptiste
Lights, camera, VPNaction! Elevate your movie nights with NordVPN. 🎥🔒secure your connection and Download NordVPN . Click now to unlock global cinematic thrills!
A brave orphan girl named Maisie stows away aboard a ship of sea monster hunters in The Sea Beast, helmed by Big Hero 6's co-director Chris Williams. The sailors are renowned for their hunting abilities, though their status is threatened by their society's admiral, who wishes to replace them. They go out on one last hunt to track down a powerful sea beast called the Red Bluster, but, as Maisie soon discovers, the creatures may not have the kind of malicious intent for which they've come to be known. With dazzling colors, fast-paced thrills, and classical storytelling, it's easy to see why The Sea Beast became Netflix's most watched animated original film as of October 2022, according to the streamer. The film also earned a Best Animated Feature nomination at the Oscars, following a wave of critical praise.

St. Louis Cardinals-Minnesota Twins Series Preview
8.23.24-Andre Pallante RHP (5-6) 4.07 ERA Vs. David Festa RHP (2-2) 4.96 ERA
8.24.24-Sonny Gray RHP (11-8) 3.91 ERA Vs. Pablo Lopez RHP (11-8) 4.47 ERA
8.25.24-Erick Fedde RHP (8-7) 3.39 ERA Vs. Zebby Matthews RHP (1-1) 3.60 ERA
The Cardinals At A Glance- The Cardinals have clung to the .500 mark seemingly all season long. They are sliding a bit with a (7-12) record in August and sit five games out of the last Wild-Card spot. St. Louis is in a weird spot because they have so many veterans. Paul Goldschmidt will be a free agent at the end of the season and they signed Lance Lynn, Kyle Gibson, and Sonny Gray before this season. Alec Burleson is having a breakout season with twenty-one homers and seventy RBI. Masyn Winn in the new shortstop with a .278 average. Paul Goldchmidt and Nolan Gorman have nineteen homers each. Lance Lynn has a knee issue and threw live batting practice on Monday. Steven Matz is slowly working his way back from a back injury. The Cardinals starting staff has a 4.50 ERA, which is 23rd in baseball. Kyle Gibson has been good with a 4.22 ERA, Sonny Gray has a 3.91 ERA, and Miles Mikolas has been knocked around a bit. Ryan Helsley has locked down thirty-nine saves. JoJo Romero has been good from the left side of the bullpen, while Andrew Kittredge and Shawn Armstrong have been good righty options.
The Twins At A Glance- The Twins had a solid road trip and went (4-3) in Arlington and San Diego. The team returns home for a huge nine-game homestand against decent teams. The Cardinals, Braves, and Blue Jays are good, but not great. Kody Funderburk has starting a throwing program and could begin a rehab assignment this weekend. Brooks Lee worked out in St. Paul on Thursday and might go on a rehab assignment. Alex Kirilloff was set to go on a rehab assignment then sprained his ankle doing drills. Carlos Correa is still having issues with his heel. Byron Buxton could be close to returning this weekend. Christian Vazquez is hitting .357 with three homers and eleven RBI since the break. Matt Wallner and Royce Lewis each have hit five homers since the All-Star Break. Griffin Jax owns a 1.38 ERA in his past thirteen innings. Cole Sands has been just as good with a 1.89 ERA over his last 13 2/3 innings.
What To Watch For- The Twins are (23-20) all-time against the Cardinals. The Twins took two of three from the Cardinals in St. Louis last August. The Cardinals haven't been to Target Field since 2020 for the Twins home opener in the shortened season. These two teams will open up next season in St. Louis. Andre Pallante has thrown one scoreless inning against the Twins in his career. Sonny Gray is (2-4) with a 5.05 ERA in eight starts against the Twins. He has a 2.83 ERA in 35 starts at Target Field. Pablo Lopez is (2-2) with a 2.84 ERA in five starts against the Cardinals. Erick Fedde is (1-0) with an 0.82 ERA in two starts against the Twins. David Festa and Zebby Matthews have never faced the Cardinals. It should be a nice weekend for a series against a reeling Cardinals team.

"CITY AND DISTRICT," Montreal Gazette. June 13, 1913. Page 3. --- Man Lured Into Lane by Woman Knocked Unconscious and Robbed ---- CALLED JUDGE "COLONEL" ---- Colored and White Pickpockets Caught After Taking Money From Richmond Visitor Found Guilty ----- An old game was tried out successfully last night on Craig streets, when at 11.30 Cecil Lisotte, who says he arrived in Montreal on Wednesday from Ottawa, was lured into a lane in the rear of 34 Cote street by a woman whom he describes as being dressed in white. Lisotte admits that he was somewhat under the influence of liquor, but not so bad that he did not remember all the circumstances. He was no sooner in the lane, which is very dark, when, he states, that a man struck him between the eyes with some heavy instrument, after which he remembers nothing. When he came to his senses his pockets had been turned inside out and $18 stolen therefrom. The matter was brought to the notice of the police by a boy. who at about midnight ran into the Cherneville street police station and said that a man had been killed in the lane in question. Constables Cote and Creveau were sent to the scene and when they arrived, the beaten man was attempting to get to his feet. The blood was streaming from a gash in his forehead and he was very weak. The inside pockets of his vest were found to have been literally torn out. A patrol waggon was called and the man taken to the station, where after telling his story he was sent in the waggon to the General Hospital. After having several stitches taken in his injured head, he was again brought to the station for protection. He was able to give a very good description of the girl and the police are making every effort to round the couple up.
CALLED JUDGE "COLONEL" "Good-bye, Colonel. God bless and thank you. I'll go right away, don't worry about that." With tears streaming down his face as he rushed out of the prisoner's dock in the Arraignment Court yesterday morning, Wesley Welch, colored, alias "Old Folks," who was making himself at home at King Edward Park on Wednesday when he was caught by Inspector McLaughlin, bestowed the title of Colonel on Judge Leet. Welch commenced to cry so loudly when he was arraigned that Judge Leet was glad to get rid of him, when through his sobs and tears the colored man said he was not looking for sympathy, but telling the truth and would get right out of town if he was only given a chance. "Will you go right out of the city if I let you go?" said Judge Leet to "Old Folks." "I'll light right out if you only let me go and give me a couple of minutes to get a few old clothes I have got over here" replied Welch. "I have been living, with the horses since I was nine years old," sobbed the prisoner, "and I did not come here to rob any one. But every place I go the police grab me and lock me up." He disappeared quickly when Judge Leet said he could go. He was seen off by local detectives by the 10.30 train for Buffalo last night.
PICKPOCKETS GUILTY. Fisher First, colored, and Frank Sullivan, white, who were arrested a couple of weeks ago by Detectives Lapage and Gorman on a charge of picking $390 from the pocket of J. A. Adams, of Richmond, Que., on a St Lawrence street car, were found guilty yesterday in the Court of Special Sessions by Judge Bazin. First and Sullivan were unable to secure bail following their arrest, as they were caught with the goods, although they tried hard to regain their liberty. They were remanded until next Tuesday for sentence. The pair were arrested immediately after they had taken Adams roll and the money was found on Sullivan when he was searched at the City Hall avenue station. When the accused were found guilty yesterday, High Constable St. Mars handed over to Adams his $200.
