Do you think Persian is a Ghetsis hater? I feel like Ghetsis despises pokemon but has to play nice with Persian around Giovanni

Absolutely. I think most pokemon dislike Ghetsis on intuition alone because his vibes are atrocious lmao so it absolutely applies to Persian too. Also it's hilarious. Me, my husband and his huge ass cat that hates me kinda situation.

Also I don't really think he has to play nice that much. Yeah, there are some obvious rules like Giovanni would probably kill him if he ever laid a hand on Persian for example. But if it bites him and he insults it in return? Thats fair, that's how Ghetsis is, plus he finds it hilarious for him to be riled up so easily by his kitty lmao.

I guess it's a bit of a pet and the owner liking similar things (annoying Ghetsis).

Anyways sorry for taking forever to answer. In return have a comic of Ghetsis not passing the vibe check when he and Persian met for the first time.

As soon as the Shah returned to Iran after the successful U.S.-backed coup, he summoned Amb. Loy Henderson, who was in on the plot, for a secret rendezvous at the palace. Henderson’s cabled report is the only known record of this historic conversation…

"'Misirlou' (Greek: Μισιρλού < Turkish: Mısırlı 'Egyptian' < Arabic: مصر Miṣr 'Egypt'[1]) is a folk song[2] from the Eastern Mediterranean region. The song's original author is unknown, but Arabic, Greek, and Jewish musicians were playing it by the 1920s. The earliest known recording of the song is a 1927 Greek rebetiko/tsifteteli composition. There are also Arabic belly dancing, Albanian, Armenian, Serbian, Persian, Indian and Turkish versions of the song. This song was popular from the 1920s onwards in the Arab American, Armenian American and Greek American communities who settled in the United States." —Orginal Wikipedia Article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misirlou

my writing style is such that on my history test that i got a 100 on i have red pen connecting two seemingly contradicting points with a question mark because he didnt read the entire sentence before starting to mark it up, and the conclusion of the sentence cleared the contradiction. it was an admittedly confusing sentence and i did know that while i was writing it. i blame the jesuits

@jonmartinweek day 6 - eldritch powers | caretaking day 7 - ten years later | martin's poetry

10 years later - after surviving an apocalypse and what could be considered death, healing as an act of rebirth - martin still pulls the bullshit "lonely hands" move 😶‍🌫️

[Start ID: Two drawings of Jon and Martin from The Magnus Archives in blue hues. Jon is a average sized Persian man with curly hair tied back into a messy bun and multiple scars. He has a thick mustache and lighter beard, with streaks of grey in his facial hair and eyebrows, and wears rectangular glasses and a large sweater. Martin is a fat mixed Polish/Korean man with shaggy hair pulled back into a headband, several beauty marks on his skin, and a patchy mustache (beard not visible). There are streaks of gray in his eyebrows. He wears browline glasses and a simple t-shirt. Both Jon and Martin have matching bands on their left ring fingers. 1st image: Jon stands at a counter watching a mug of tea, an arrow points stating "waiting for tea to steep". Steam from the mug flows to the side and Jon wonders, "Did I leave a window open?" as the temperature presumably drops. In the steam cloud, Martin appears behind Jon in a fog-like state, reaching a vaguely shaped hand out. 2nd image: Martin grabs Jon (punctuated by GRAB with a heart), shoving one hand into his sweater collar and the other underneath his sweater. He smirks, singing, "Cold hands!". Streaks of fog trail behind him. Jon shouts at the sudden cold, "M-MARTIN!! You're freezing!", and shivers all over, one hand gripping Martin's arm and the other flailing beside him. Hair can be seen where his stomach and upper chest is exposed. End ID.]

This map undersells just how WEIRD the Oman border is.

"Did you know that the UAE has an exclave INSIDE an Exclave of Oman?"

"Nahwa!"

"WA!"

Interesting borders and land distribution between UAE and Oman

In June 1964, the Shah of Iran and Farah made an unofficial trip to the USA. The CIA found the monarch “sensitive, often moody”, confronting “a rising middle class [that] has agitated restlessly for greater political power and accelerated economic and social change��” ••• “Since the overthrow of the Mossadeq regime in 1953 he has operated largely as a dictator, with a thin facade of parliamentary democratic procedures.”

This glazed brick bas-relief style was perfected in Babylon, and even the Foundation Charter of the Susa palace states that the baked bricks at the palace were the work of the Babylonians.
