“At your command”

by Neville Goddard

This is the first book I've read by him, so I wanted to share the parts that I highlighted and that made an impression on me, because they might make an impression on you too. <3

“The only way to change your expressions of life is to change your consciousness.”

“Your environment, and all within it, reflects that which you are in consciousness. As long as you continue to be that in consciousness so long will you continue to out-picture it in your world. Knowing this, begin to revalue yourself.”

“You can only be to others what you are first to yourself. ”

“You could never be in want of proof or lack the evidence of that which you are aware of being.”

“It is just as easy to possess the consciousness of these qualities as it is to possess their opposites”

“I and my father are one but my father is greater than I.” You are one with your present conception of yourself. But you are greater than that which you are at present aware of being.”

“Before man can attempt to transform his world he must first lay the foundation—“I AM the Lord.” That is, man’s awareness, his consciousness of being is God. Until this is firmly established so that no suggestion or argument put forward by others can shake it, he will find himself returning to the slavery of his former beliefs.”

“If any man hear my voice and open the door I will come in to him and sup with him and he with me.” The “I” knocking at the door is the urge. The door is your consciousness. To open the door is to become one with that which is knocking by FEELING oneself to be the thing desired. To feel one’s desire as impossible is to shut the door or deny this urge expression. To rise in consciousness to the naturalness of the thing felt is to swing wide the door and invite this one into embodiment.”

“Do not speculate as to the HOW of this consciousness embodying itself, for no man is wise enough to know the how. Speculation is proof that you have not attained to the naturalness of being the thing desired and so are filled with doubts.”

“Doubts is as a wave of the sea that is tossed and battered by the winds - only upon the rock of faith can any thing be established. If you have not the consciousness of the thing you have not the cause or foundation upon which the thing is erected.”

“When you come into the joy of thanksgiving so that you actually feel grateful for having received that which is not yet apparent to the senses, you have definitely become one in consciousness with the thing for which you gave thanks.”

“In applying this principle as you rise in consciousness to the point where you are really grateful and happy for having received the thing desired, you automatically rejoice and give thanks inwardly. You have already accepted the gift which was but a desire before you rose in consciousness, and your faith is now the substance that shall clothe your desire.”

“It is the unconditional. It does not state if society deems it right or wrong that you should ask it, it rests with you.”

“Every man’s conception of himself is going to be his reward.”

“But remember, “I AM the Lord.” Your awareness of being is the God that you give to and you ever give in this manner.”

“Do not speculate as to how you shall express these qualities or claims, for life has a way that you, as man, know not of. Its ways are past finding out. But, I assure you, the day you claim these qualities to the point of conviction, your claims will be honored.”

“Life does not care whether you call yourself rich or poor; strong or weak. It will eternally reward you with that which you claim as true of yourself.”

“Have faith in this unseen claim until the conviction is born within you that it is so. Your confidence in this claim will pay great rewards. ”

“Don’t be anxious or concerned as to results. They will follow just as surely as day follows night.”

“Give thanks for it to the point that you are grateful for having already received it—then go about your way in peace.”

“Leave behind you all that is now your present problem, or limitation, by taking your ATTENTION AWAY from it”

“Because you have lost all consciousness of your problems and barriers, it is now the easiest thing in the world to FEEL yourself to be one with the things desired.”

“Because I AM (your consciousness) is the resurrection and the life, you must attach this resurrecting power that you are to the thing desired if you would make it appear and live in your world. Now you begin to assume the nature of the thing desired by feeling, “I AM wealthy”; “I AM free”; “I AM strong.”

“When you have taken your attention away completely by shutting out the evidence of the senses, begin to FEEL the joy—(symbolized by oil)—of having received the things desired. When the agreement is established within you so that all doubts and fears have passed away then, you too will fill all the empty measures of your life and will have an abundance running over. ”

“What a glorious revelation, your awareness now revealed as the Lord thy God!”

“DECREE the unseen to appear and it SHALL appear, for all things are compelled to respond to the Voice of God, Your awareness of being—the world is AT YOUR COMMAND!”

𝐔𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃 | kaiser x reader

— part four

plot: kaiser comforted you after a bad and slow breakup, but what will happen now considering what you two shared? is everything still unexpected or is there something you both simply have yet to realize?. fluff shit 'cause yeah!!

words: 3.2k (3285)

extra: it will probably become a multi part story, tell me if you're interested in a part five!

𝐌𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓 ; take a look, trust me!. you can find the other parts of the story by searching in the section dedicated to bllk

Micheal had left the house a few hours earlier, at the first light of dawn: accompanied by two huge suitcases and a train ticket purchased shortly before, he had simply hugged you before leaving for the next few days. Not a word, not a whisper. Just a hug, one of those that touch your soul without you being able to defend yourself

And so, hours after he was gone, you found yourself thinking about how two simple hugs had brought you back to life after months of suffering. The heat of the midday sun filtered through the window, warming your skin slightly, but it was not comparable to the warmth that last night's hug had caused you: Kaiser's problem, or luck, was that he knew exactly how to use words, and, accompanied by his arms tightened around you, the result had been the current confusion in your head. This morning's one had been lighter, perhaps even hasty, but in the same way it had caused a knot in your stomach that after hours and hours still hadn't gone away

What was going on between you and Kaiser?

What happened to the relationship you had before he first walked into that hotel room?

What was happening to you?

You had thought for years that that crush you had on him as a teenager was gone, but now, back in the same house together, you were really revaluating your latest life choices. In a corner of your mind, you wondered what would have changed if instead of dating Gabriel you had stayed in Germany with Kaiser, maybe dating him

If instead of letting everything disappear naturally you had declared yourself, perhaps you would have been together for a few years now. He would obviously have continued with soccer, he would have traveled all over the world as he did but with you at his side, always ready to cheer him on while you would have concentrated on the world of fashion, perhaps becoming a model in this possible universe too. You would spend the nights loving each other and during the day you would simply make it obvious how much you cared for each other. You would simply have been a couple, one of those that perhaps doesn't even destroy destiny even if he tried hard

But that other universe did not exist. There was only and exclusively the universe in which you let yourself be destroyed by someone who actually never really cared about you. There was only the universe where Y/n and Kaiser were always one step away from each other, but never attached

The mattress buckles slightly under your movement as you reach for the remote control on the nightstand. Turn on the television by switching on the channel dedicated to live national matches, where in the pre-match scenes you notice Kaiser appearing training with Ness

You set the nightstand down, turning up the volume as you get out of bed, resting your bare feet on the cold floor. With the comments of the commentator announcing that the match will start soon, you begin to observe the room: it hasn't changed since you were there, the only changes are some prizes including cups and medals placed on the shelves. You sigh, deciding that watching Kaiser's successes now, while your suitcase is still full, isn't the best option

You sit on the floor, starting to take out the few clothes you brought with you. After dividing the clothes into categories you stand up, walking towards a drawer, precisely the lower one

The drawer is practically empty, so you start putting your clothes in there while distractedly listening to the commentator's comments. Without doing so voluntarily, your hands move deeper into the drawer, where they find something hard. You return to reality for a moment due to the unexpected contact, feeling better the material that looks like a metal box

"What will it be...?" you ask to yourself as you take out the box, which weighs more than expected

You look at the object, ask yourself what is inside since due to its weight it must necessarily contain something. You know very well that peeking into other people's things is not polite, and you have never done it in your life. But the more you look at the box, the more something tells you you should open it. Fucking your manners for a moment, you head towards the living room of the house, heading towards the sofa where you sit placing the box on your lap. A little hesitantly, you open the box still feeling anxious that maybe you really shouldn't and put it where it was

But by now, you've opened it

A myriad of letters emerge from the bottom of the box, and so seeing them you could say that there are at least a hundred. A little unsure you grab one, where you read the sender in elegant handwriting that you recognize immediately

— From Kaiser. To Ness

Berlin, autumn

The dates are not specified, but you are amazed to find something like this. A letter for Ness? Why would Kaiser write him a letter? How long ago is it?. You don't know if you should read it or not, but you've already done the damage so you might as well continue

— From Kaiser. To Ness

Berlin, autumn

I seriously can't believe I have to write you a fucking letter. What is happening in Hamburg that has caused the internet to be missing for a month now? Really Ness, you're weird, but the town where you're from is even weirder. Since the situation can no longer be updated via normal messages (and above all because the situation itself is becoming unmanageable for me) I had to resort to this method which honestly makes me feel like an old man from the 1800s writing to his lover so as not to get caught by his wife. I know you didn't laugh, or maybe you did, but in case you didn't I don't care because Y/n would have laughed and that's what matters. Bastard Munchen hasn't been training much lately, maybe it's because half the team is back home for the holidays. I would have liked to return to house too, but seeing my father after a long time wouldn't have given me much pleasure. Returning to the main topic, the situation has degenerated more than I thought. I last saw her on wednesday, and holy shit, seeing her cry was horrible. I hate having to leave her again every time, I really wish I could go back to the time when her brother coached the team and she was always around. It was nice, even though she and I weren't friends at the time. On wednesday I was about to hold her and ask her to come live with me, but how the fuck was I going to tell her? "Hey hi, every time I leave I feel like I want to die, don't you want to come and live with me?" hell no. I know well that the house isn't entirely mine yet and that I still have to sign a few contracts, but by now it should be legally mine before the end of the month. And when it's actually my house, the first room I decide on will be the one where she will stay if I ever ask her and if she ever comes to live with me. Really Ness, it's strange to feel something like that for someone I couldn't even stand until a few years ago. Seeing her after weeks or months without meeting is beautiful every time, and I should seriously stop being like that because I don't recognize myself either. It's as if every time she cheers for me during the matches (you should have seen how excited she was at monday's match!) it's as if I have to prove myself to her as being even better than I already am. Yes, the situation is definitely more desperate and out of control than I thought. I've thought a lot during this time and every now and then I seriously wonder if I should just stop being like this or if I should come out and simply hope for the best answer. But a possible no? Hell, it would ruin everything I currently care most. Hurry up and find a cell phone and an internet line where you can write to me because really, I hate writing letters

Kaiser Micheal

— From Kaiser. To Ness

Berlin, winter

I wonder how it is possible to completely change my opinion in a short time about a day that I have always hated. Y/n decided to spend Christmas at my house this year, instead of making me come to Hamburg like I usually do since we stay apart. Celebrating Christmas with her has always been quite pleasant, her family and especially her brother love me quite well and they don't mind spending such an important day with me. But on the one hand, they are unaware of how much it bothers me that they wish me a happy birthday, because in addition to being Christmas it's also my fucking birthday. I know they don't do it voluntarily, but it bothers me that I can hardly handle. Y/n never wishes me a happy birthday because she knows I hate it, oh god she's perfect. This year was our first Christmas alone, just me and her in the new house; she came saying that being together during this day could be a way to inaugurate the house, which has been mine for a short time now. We were on the couch pretty much the whole time, eating junk that my diet would abolish without a second thought. But you know what? Honestly I don't care much, seeing her laugh while eating candy was quite enjoyable. I don't think I've had such a great day in a long time, but do you know what specifically happened that changed my opinion about my birthday? By mistake, before locking herself in her room to sleep (she stayed until the 29th, she left just before New Year's Eve so she slept at home for almost a week. When I showed her the room I chose for her, obviously hiding the fact that I hoped she would come to live with me, she was happy) she said "happy birthday, Mihya" to me and immediately apologised. But from her, it didn't bother me... it's strange, because I've always hated my birthday. She continued to apologize for at least a full minute, and trust me Ness, I was seriously on the verge of shutting her up by kissing her. Her wishes, somehow, seem more beautiful. When we went to sleep, each in our own rooms, I was awake for at least 2 hours just thinking that SHE was in MY HOUSE in the room ATTACHED to mine. I should seriously consider visiting a psychologist... my God, I should get myself hospitalized because this is not the Kaiser I know. How long will you stay in Hamburg? I hate writing to you

Kaiser Micheal

— From Kaiser. To Ness

Napoli, summer

I don't remember why for every letter I sent you I made a copy that I kept. The last one was more than a year and a half ago, and what's more I had forgotten about this exchange of letters that we had had for a while. But now, with the current situation, obviously I have to update you because, even if it kind of bothers me to admit it, you are the only one who knows how I feel about her, I would have preferred her to understand it honestly. Today Y/n called me, I'm in Italy for special training and the call cost me a few cents, but I don't care. She was a little agitated, and I didn't understand why her voice seemed more shaky than usual. She told me that her brother received a promotion in Denmark, and that her family will be leaving in less than three weeks. I have to admit, the world fell on me a bit when she told me: the mere fact of not being able to see her daily or monthly weighs on me, but not even seeing her for years? Hell, no. And so I told her, Ness. I asked her to come and live with me in Berlin... and she said yes. She said she will catch the first plane next week and when I get home she will already be here. It will no longer be my home, but our home. Hell, it sounds like a pre-marriage course that I wouldn't mind doing with her though. I think I was more afraid of asking her this than of letting Bastard Munchen lose in the last game. Every now and then I seriously wonder if I should honestly just come out and let her decide; don't get me wrong, I would hope for a positive response, but just letting go of this boulder that I've been carrying on my shoulders for at least 3 or 4 years would be enough. I think hiding the fact that I love her is becoming too complicated, and imagine how the situation will get worse once she lives with me. I would simply like to have less paranoia and let myself go, but I prefer to live in doubt if the other option is to lose her. Shit I don't even know what I just said. I often go to the sea during breaks, here in Naples it's nice and Italy isn't as cold as Germany. I swim often, and every now and then when I pop out of the water after going underwater, I swear I see her on the beach. Every now and then I imagine myself being with her, kissing her, just knowing that she loves me. Am I a weirdo? Probably

Kaiser Micheal

— From Kaiser. To Ness

Berlin, spring

It's been just over a month since she went to Italy. Her room hasn't been opened since she left, and I don't plan on doing so until she gets back, because she will. I know that the relationship won't last, that shitty Italian promises her the world but won't give her anything. And when she comes back, I will declare myself, and finally the boulder I carry on my shoulders will go away. At first, a few months ago, I thought she was joking when she said she was seeing someone: not that I believed her, she's a nice and pretty girl, but with someone other than me? God, I'm thankful I knew how to pretend because I would have risked making an unnecessary scene. When she told me she was leaving I was dead inside, and I'm dead inside now too. Did you notice how many times the coach sent me to the bench during practice? I don't blame him honestly, furthermore he said that if I continue like this I might not even show up for the next match. I hate myself for loving her and her for being so lovable!... it's not true, probably loving her and being able to get to know her better is one of the few graces that this shitty life has given me. I wonder if there is a universe where she loves me, where she knows how much she actually mean it to me. One where, as soon as I get home from training, she come up to me wanting to kiss me. One where I attend all her shows and where she knows I'm her number one fan in everything. One where she becomes my wife one day after I promised her that I would give my all just to make her happy. One where I simply declared myself as soon as she went to Hamburg, when we were both 19

Maybe in another universe, Y/n?

Kaiser Micheal

Your hands tremble as you finish reading the fourth letter; wthout you noticing, small tears roll down your cheeks, leaving an annoying wet sensation. You look at the papers, and for the first time since you met Kaiser, you feel like you never really understood him. These letters could even be from 5 years ago, and you have known him for 10 years! How is it possible that in all this time you haven't really understood what was hidden behind that smile you adore so much?

“…Maybe in another universe, Y/n?” reread cautiously, and it's as if a cold shower runs down your body, giving you a sudden feeling of cold

Kaiser loves you, or rather, you don't know if he still does now. Micheal spent years thinking what you're thinking now, where do you imagine yourself dating him instead of that asshole. Kaiser simply saw the girl he loved pass before his eyes, without being able to stop her and tell him what he really felt. Knowing that you hurt him in some way is a wound that becomes more and more painful as the minutes pass. How could you be so damn blind to the person you claimed to know more than yourself?

Still with trembling hands you place the last letter read next to you, on the sofa cushion. You grab the box, ignoring the other letters that you honestly just want to read anymore, and find something at the bottom: three photographs, a small plushie and a small writing on a piece of paper which now seems ruined due time

You look at the first photograph: the Bastard Munchen team smiles in front of the campus training field. Your brother is at one hundred, you next to him between a player you don't recognize and Ness. Kaiser is a little further away, the only one not smiling in the photo. The date at the bottom of the photograph marks the period in which your brother had just obtained the position, so you were 16 at the time. This is probably the first photo of you two together

Now you look at the second photograph: you were a little older here, probably 17 or 18 years old, sitting on the benches in the field. You greeted the person behind the camera, who you remember was Ness. In one corner, you can see Kaiser training but looking at you. A note behind the photograph reads "Even when you were stupid you were cute"

The third photograph however is from a few years later: the stadium is celebrating, you are hugging Kaiser who has one hand on your hip and the other is busy holding a large cup. You both smile, you even have a few tears in your eyes. Another note at the bottom of the photo says "You were the most important thing even in that moment"

You recognize the stuffed animal as one that you left at his house, by mistake, when you moved to Italy. A small stray dog, blond in color and with blue eyes with a cerulean and red collar. You had called him Mihya, because he reminded you terribly of Micheal. The note was old, but you recognized your handwriting: "Always your number one fan, remember that! ♡". You remembered giving it to him after the same game in the third photo, but you thought he had thrown it away some time ago

You observe everything still trembling, while the tears continue to flow without a brake. Kaiser had been, or still was, in love with you. Perhaps the situation was even more complex than it already was before, and perhaps you didn't really know the Michael you considered your best friend

PICK A CARD: what message do you need to hear right now?

Could be from your higher self, the universe, if you do deity work maybe some deity, spirit guides, anything. There's no specific from who the message is, so follow your intuition to figure it out!

Pick whichever picture you feel more attracted to and skip to that pile.

mini rant, poll, and links at the end as always. All images are from the game persona 3 reload.

Pile 1

knight of swords, two of wands, the high priestess.

With the two of wands, it seems that you have two paths you can follow and choosing either one of them it’s going to be a big change in your life, this is something that you already know or something you don’t know yet. Whichever is the case when the time comes to make the decision you need to be assertive, direct and honest with what you want, even if it means going against the flow. I feel you probably are a little indecisive about what to choose, and that’s why you ended up in this reading, but you know that deep down you already know what to choose. The high priestess is all about intuition, gut feelings, signs and symbols that whichever or whatever you are asking for guidance is leaving for you, as well as intellect and common sense, you probably have been seeing a lot of signs, or having dreams that can be trace back to this, you have to trust your intuition and pay attention to the signs that are being presented to you.

**As in all the PACs, just take what resonates and leave what doesn't, this is for entertainment only, so have fun with it!

Pile 2

page of swords, six of pentacles (reversed), three of pentacles.

For some reason, I’m getting the feeling that you are in a school setting (working or studying) and that you are being protective and guarded with someone, sometimes getting into unnecessary arguments or conflicts. You may come out too blunt when you try to communicate with them and that is what’s causing the arguments, and for some of you I see a more passive approach, where you act friendly with that person, but then talk bad about them to other people, maybe even spreading gossip. The six of pentacles indicates that there’s a lack of generosity and sincerity in the situation, you need to revaluate this relationship and see if you’re not being too extreme with the way you are acting, or in the other hand, the passive approach to the situation is maybe a little too passive and you need to stand more your ground.

**As in all the PACs, just take what resonates and leave what doesn't, this is for entertainment only, so have fun with it!

Pile 3

five of wands, six of cups, nine of pentacles (reversed).

In this pile with the five of wands and the nine of pentacles reversed I’m seeing a lot of negative feelings. You may feel that you aren’t in control of a lot of situations happening right now, and it can vary from just arguments and disagreements about trivial things, to feeling a lack of freedom, security and even some internal issues like problems with confidence and self-control. I feel your message is about taking support from family and friends that you trust and are comfortable with, and start working in more areas of your life, maybe right now you are feeling overwhelmed because you are just focusing in one aspect of your life, which isn’t wrong, but there’s more beside that, is not the only thing that defines you.

**As in all the PACs, just take what resonates and leave what doesn't, this is for entertainment only, so have fun with it!

I was going to wait a few more days to upload a reading, mostly bc I wasn't sure what type of reading to do, but for some reason I felt that I needed to do this reading, so I hope it helps whoever needed to read this!

Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think and if you want more readings like this.

You can find more of my PACs on my master list, and if you have any suggestions on future PACs you want to see me do, you can send me an ask. Curious about me? want to know how my blog works? want to look at more tags I use? you can see all that on my pinned post.

Bye byeee ✨

So it’s looking like we might be getting the ‘AFO gave Tenko his quirk’ theory confirmed and I gotta be honest; I am not in favor. I’m hardly the first to take this position, both before and after this chapter dropped, but if I may attempt to put into words why; it’s that I don't think it can really add anything except reveal postmortem some new way AFO is bad in the best case & handing Deku a potential deus ex machina in the worst case.

Like, the best case result of such a revelation at this point in the plot is that it's just to make AFO seem more evil by making him the root cause of the Shimura tragedy, except…only in a way that doesn’t even matter. Like, this reveal shouldn’t change any of Tomura’s motivations or talking points; he already knows AFO manipulated him & hates him for that, but he also hates Kotaro, Nana, All Might, and the greater hero society for the role they played in his tragedy, and AFO giving him Decay wouldn’t change how much everyone else I listed deserves that ire. It just means that some of the tragic happenstance of the Shimuras that seemingly could've happened to anyone was instead purposefully cause by that jerk we know.

It’s like if we learned AFO killed Endeavor’s father, leading him down the path to become the domestic abuser we know him as. Thus the tragedy of the Todorokis would also come back to AFO...but y’know…not in anyway that matters. Endeavor, Touya, and everyone else involved still made their choices; AFO’s just the root cause of it all by sheer technicality. How diabolical, I might care if he were still relevant.

The worst case result of such a revaluation of course is that it gives Deku an unearned & largely uninteresting easy out to solving the problem that is Tomura's rage. Because if AFO gave him Decay, then he's actually the one ultimately responsible for near everything, if not just everything wrong in Tomura's life (even if, again, just by technicality in some areas). Never mind the rolls Kotaro, Nana, All Might, and greater hero society played in it; AFO's the real root cause of it all whose been manipulating Tomura for longer than he even knows, so he should just stop caring about that other stuff.

Plus it'd also mean Tomura doesn't exist to destroy because Decay isn't his true quirk (never mind how that's not why he thinks that & he never even put much stock into that quirk-identity stuff anyway) so he can just stop being a villain now please.

Yeah this all just doesn't seem like the most interesting way for Deku to tackle Tomura's trauma, talking points, or motivations.

Plus, like a live action Disney movie, the idea's kind of felt like it’s tying up a ‘plot hole’ that didn’t need tying up; that might even work better as a coincidental tragedy. Like; people act like this can’t be just a tragedy, it's too convenient, it has to be some master machination of the grand demon lord who…is already beaten, dead, and doesn’t factor into anyone’s plot lines or themes anymore. At best, to make him seem more evil long after the point we have any reason to care; at worst, to give Deku an easy out (with the side effect of making him seem like a worse hero who can’t save villains in Tomura's position without unique circumstances to make it easy).

Also like a live action Disney movie, this almost feels like it opens up a plot hole in trying to tie one up. Because as we know; Tenko’s circumstances are identical to Eri’s, down to the signs of their quirks being random mutations. When I said the tragic happenstance of the Shimuras we're blaming AFO for could've happened to anyone; I know this because it happened verbatim to her. So if those circumstances (just so happening to get a deadly quirk that kills their families, which just so happen to be connected to the villain who'll use & abuse them, etc.) are seen as suspicious, early signs that AFO gave Tenko Decay…did he or another villain give Eri Rewind? Almost certainly not; but if not then why does she get a random mutation-caused tragedy, while Tenko must have been the victim of some villain’s plot that's already been foiled?

So my point is: I really hope this is just a red herring. Revealing that AFO gave Tenko Decay kind of feels like it undercuts the Shimura tragedy as something that could've happened to any kid in Tenko or Eri's shoes; and I don't think any payoff you'd get for that undercutting is worth it.

We should instead get the much funnier revaluation that the man who brought Tenko home that day was, rather than AFO, a completely different man who Deku would coincidentally recognize: Hisashi Midoriya.

Roman Coin - Gold Aureus of Domitian AD 92-94

Obverse: portrait of Domitian. Reverse: GERMANICUS COS XVI. Emperor in a chariot in the triumph accorded after victory over the Chatti in AD 83, as a result of wich Domitian took the title ' Germanicus'.

Domitian (24 October 51 – 18 September 96) was Roman emperor from 81 to 96. The son of Vespasian and the younger brother of Titus, his two predecessors on the throne, he was the last member of the Flavian dynasty. Described as "a ruthless but efficient autocrat",his authoritarian style of ruling put him at sharp odds with the Senate, whose powers he drastically curtailed.

Domitian had a minor and largely ceremonial role during the reigns of his father and brother. After the death of his brother, Domitian was declared emperor by the Praetorian Guard. His 15-year reign was the longest since that of Tiberius. As emperor, Domitian strengthened the economy by revaluing the Roman coinage, expanded the border defenses of the empire, and initiated a massive building program to restore the damaged city of Rome. Significant wars were fought in Britain, where his general Agricola attempted to conquer Caledonia (Scotland), and in Dacia, where Domitian was unable to procure a decisive victory against King Decebalus. Domitian's government exhibited strong authoritarian characteristics. Religious, military, and cultural propaganda fostered a cult of personality, and by nominating himself perpetual censor, he sought to control public and private morals.

As a consequence, Domitian was popular with the people and the army, but considered a tyrant by members of the Roman Senate. Domitian's reign came to an end in 96 when he was assassinated by court officials. He was succeeded the same day by his advisor Nerva. After his death, Domitian's memory was condemned to oblivion by the Senate, while senatorial and equestrian authors such as Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, and Suetonius propagated the view of Domitian as a cruel and paranoid tyrant. Modern revisionists instead have characterized Domitian as a ruthless but efficient autocrat whose cultural, economic, and political programs provided the foundation of the peaceful second century.

The Valley of Fear: Sherlock Holmes Discourses

Camberwell is an area 2 3/4 miles SE of Charing Cross, being in Surrey until the 1889 creation of the London County Council. As a rapidly expanding area, it would have been hard to find trace 'Porlock'.

The French franc throughout its history from 1795 (when it replaced the livre) to 2002 (France completing its move to the euro) had several periods of rapid inflation and government devaluation, resulting in some exchange rates with other currencies that were at joke level. In 1960, the currency was revalued with the "new franc" being equivalent to 100 of the old ones, but the franc was one of the weaker currencies in Europe in the 1990s, although not quite as bad as the Italian or Turkish lira.

Jonathan Wild was a man who ran a major criminal empire who posing as a thief-taker:

The wage for the Prime Minister was £5,000 a year from 1830 to 1930. Sir Keir Starmer is entitled to £172,153, but doesn't take all of it:

Regular MPs were not paid at all until 1911; which basically limited the Commons to those were already wealthy or had support from a trade union.

Trespass is not in itself a criminal offence in England, merely a civil wrong, but picking a lock to get into a place would make it a criminal matter.

Deutsche Bank, the largest bank in Germany, was formed in 1870 - it today has two of Frankfurt-am-Main's 20 skyscrapers (Germany has 21 in total).

London Victoria is connected to Sussex by the Oxted line, then part of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. It is today in the Southern network. I will cover more on this later.

"Milk train" was a term for a very early train, these would carry churns of milk in the guard's van and/or (I guess) in dedicated freight wagons, as well as passenger loads. Milk would move from the 1930s onwards to being carried in dedicated tanks, until road transport replaced them, with the last milk trains running in 1981.

While the Pinkerton Detective Agency had adopted an eye as its logo by this time - after an operation to escort Abraham Lincoln to his inauguration where the world's first female detective, Kate Warne, likely pulled an all-nighter - the use of the term "private eye" to refer to someone like Holmes originates in the 1930s. Here it is referring to the fact the message is for Inspector MacDonald's personal reading.

Alright, so, the survey is finally up, and judging by the results and considering where most of my audience members come from, I assume you want more of the crazy cannibalistic russian content, which, credit where credit is due, I kind of inevitably called upon myself.

While it's going to take a while before I can put out that analysis in particular, I wanted to use this moment to talk about something that I've somewhat alluded to in the past, but I never actually realised in words:

This scene.

Is the most interesting scene in Murder Drones.

I'm actually unsure whether or not it's just my (un) conditional love for Doll that makes me rank this particular scene so highly in the grand scheme of things, but after some time of revaluation, I can confidently say that this is my favourite scene in Murder Drones, and it's exactly because, at face value, it's completely whortless.

If you still haven't realised the frames in question, it's the scene from Episode 5 where Doll thanks Khan for raising Uzi as a good daughter right after she stole the Cabin Fever key bug from our trio.

I love this scene.

While I have analysed it already when making my argument of Doll actually trying to form connections (in her non - neurotypical way), here I just want to tell you what stands out to me about this scene.

Murder Drones main problem, as of right now, is his insane and unsustainable pacing that puts the story above everything else; the character interactions, as a result, often happen in conjunction with the plot, as a way to enhance it, or as a result of it. And said character interactions are also locked up in extremely strict and rigid roles:

Doll is Uzi's foil and vice versa.

Uzi x N is Doll x V counter ship and vice versa.

Thad is to Uzi and N what Lizzie is to Doll and V.

Nori and Yeva are the foil relationship of Uzi and Doll.

Khan and Doll's dad are... well at least theoretically.

So, whenever there's an interaction on screen, it tends to fall into one of these preestablished roles in the relationship chart.

But here instead, we get an interaction between Doll and Khan, two characters that have almost no reason to talk to each other, not just now but generally ever, having a useless 10 second long interaction, and the reason why this interaction grabs me so much is because this is exactly what the show needed up to this point.

Less of the rushed end of the world plot and more of "traumatized serial killers trying and failing to find a place in the society they've harmed. Also teenage drama". It doesn't matter how good you think your story is, if it doesn't have the proper time to develop, then it's only a mere skeleton of the actual story you wanted to tell.

There are various interpretations that can be gathered from this scene, many already formulated by other members, one of which is the possibility of Liam Vickers not being the one who wrote it (my theory), but for now, I just really wanted to appreciate this as a standalone moment for its simplicity.

Want more?

Gemini Transits:

There is so much Gemini energy currently in the air right now omg. The Sun, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury. It’s the energy of the trickster and communication being highlighted right now. But what does this all really mean?

First off remember to check where you have Gemini in your chart to see what house this will have a lasting impact on. I would suggest using whole sign, cause I don’t wanna hear none of that I have no houses in this sign talk. 😒 Anyways remember to check your personal planets as well and notice what placements will be active during this time.

Transit Reading

Okay so Gemini is a mutable air sign so it strives for intelligence and the pursuit of knowledge in a dualistic way. I always associate Gemini with quick facts. They always seem to know very random pieces of information that they just blurt out to you. If there’s one word I would describe Gemini as is curiosity. It’s an energy that is willing to figure out about how things work and why certain things are the way they are. So whatever house the Sun, Venus, Mercury and Jupiter are passing through, your curiosity in it will grow too.

Jupiter In Gemini: The longest transit that will be happening is Jupiter in Gemini. However, we have to remember Jupiter does not like to be in Gemini. It is the opposite nature of Sagittarius and detriment in the sign. Unlike Sagittarius, Gemini is too scattered which makes the abundance Jupiter gives be placed in several different regions. Jupiter's nature though is to still bring blessings we just have to learn to bring all of that Gemini duality into one energy.

In summary, this transit rewards fun and the ones who are brave enough to have it. It’s about not holding back in what you say and learning to use your voice as best as you can. This is about speaking up. The voice no matter how trembled you may feel is required you to say something. And remember with Gemini communication comes in all ways. Multitasking with a purpose will allow you to gain benefits in the different avenues you choose, know you can do all the things you need to at the same time.

Gemini Rising- Okay I would say we are the ones experiencing this Gemini season to its fullest right now. Now is not the time to fall back and be shy. It’s about embodying the multifaceted nature of who you really are. Embracing your dualistic nature will be the vehicle to lead you to prosper. There is a lot of growth and change happening within the physical body. This is a great time to try new looks, change your style and doing what you can to grow your physique. Work with your arms, whether it’s writing, getting your nails done or arm exercises it’s important to bring awareness to them. Also, be open to have conversations with people. This time you may find that many people are curious to learn more about you and it’s okay to let your guard down with them. Allow the social talker in you come out. If you are comfortable feel free to talk with yourself and figure out what your physical needs are.

Gemini Sun- This is your time to shine at what you do best, talking. It’s important for you to honor and use your communication skills to get the best results of what you need in life. The house your Sun falls in will be illuminated and emphasized in this time. Allow yourself to have casual conversations with people on a whim.

Gemini Moon- Revaluation to deal with the tricky nature of your family. You may find huge changes occurring within your home life at this moment. There is a focus on your emotional need for mental stimulation. Picking out new activities will help you feel emotionally fulfilled in this time. Talk with your mom if you can, a conversation with a maternal figure will allow you to discover a new point of view of life.

Gemini Mercury- It’s important to feed your mind with factual information that will serve you. Allow yourself to enjoy learning and make it a fun process for you. Speech is important and if you have this placement it is imperative that you use that voice. During this time you can literally get what you want if you just ask for it. Ask and you shall receive. Your mental agility might feel a lot more flexible and quicker in this time. New ideas may seem to spawn sporadically making you think of multiple things at once. Writing your thoughts down will help you keep track and your ideas grounded. WRITE.

Gemini Venus- This is a good time to be expanded in your sense of love and what you find comfort in. You might find that your relationship dynamics are switching to a different side in this time. There is a focus on who you would like to form bonds with and keep in your close circle. You have a great opportunity to meet to people if you just put the effort in. Be flirty and you’ll see how easily people are attracted to you. Put work into your aesthetic and be more flexible with your style. Also, spend money on doing things for fun and just for the sake of having pleasure.

Gemini Mars- Reconciliation may come from past conflicts you’ve had in the past. Maybe you said something you didn’t mean and you reconnect with that friend again. On the other hand, conflict may arise in whatever house this is placed in. You have to remember you can solve issues by talking things out. Ask for help if certain disruptions are too big for you to handle. You can find someone to guide you and listen to

Gemini Jupiter - This is your Jupiter return era and it’s game time, what are you waiting for. The house you have this placement you’ll gain profound wisdom and insight on. Be curious and have an open mind towards exploring new ideas. You might feel an urge to teach others about facts that you know and serve as a guide for other people. Be optimistic about random ideas you get and follow through with them. They may be just what you need for a huge breakthrough. Having a willingness to explore and have adventure can bring you more opportunities.

Gemini Saturn- You guys already know Saturn loves efficiency and discipline. This is a good time for you to bring much needed structure to how you communicate your ideas. Is it too rigid or too nuanced? The way you convey information you know will be highlighted during this time. I feel like you guys will get some of the best effect of this transit as Saturn minimizes the scattered energy of Gemini which will help you be focused. You might feel a sense of responsibility within your friend group and social interactions. Like people are looking up to you for guidance. There can be a focus on you letting go of immaturity and childish behavior.

…

In general, if you want to utilize this Gemini energy to its fullest potential just COMMUNICATE. Let your voice and ideas be heard. Allow conversations to flow without fear of rejection. It’s also important to tap into your different hobbies as they will allow you to feel more connected. Embrace new friendships and networking opportunities. This is really a time to socialize and get active within your community.To be honest just have FUN.

Personal Effect

All of these planets are currently transiting through my 1st house. Aside from my rising, I have no other planets in the sign. The one Gemini placement I do have however, is my Lilith in Gemini first house. I have actually been seeing the transit highlighting it more for me.

From my previous Lilith post, I stated first house Lilith individuals have to deal with shame surrounding their body and sexuality. That’s really been a big focus for me on how can I be more confident within my sexuality and physical appearance. It’s interesting because Gemini creates excess amount of talking and I’ve been noticing more people talking about my physical appearance in a complimentary way. I’ve also been doing shadow work on letting go of internal homophobia I still kept inside. Like I’ve had this assumption I can’t make male friends because of my sexuality and lately I’ve been proving myself wrong. Been going to more queer spaces as well and having a confidence to freely express my sexuality. :3

This transit seems to be one of self embrace for me, letting go of toxic opinions others have made about me. Really uncovering that dualistic fluidity inside as well. I’m able to see these different sides to myself that all make me who I am. May this transition continue to help me grow and explore more facets of my being.

- Your star Darling

i feel like i can’t assume or decide things just like that or i don’t even know how to do. i just wanna be happy with my sp but i’m so stressed rn

Let's dive into the topic of "SPs"

Hi, hello there ^^

Ask yourself, "Why am I feeling stressed now? "What is making me feel so stressed out about the fact that someone didn't give me enough attention?" Beacuse the problem isn't the sp at all

Where are you mentally dwelling on?

If you are having a hard time with this look into your self-concept

Do you need a MAN to feel happy? No you need yourself 1st because when you realize your worth and value as a person then you realize how powerful you are and you will be like "OF COURSE MY SP IS MINE. Why wouldn't my person want to be with me when I am irresistible irreplaceable and unforgettable?"

Ask yourself "how do I view myself as a person? What are my relationship values? What are my boundaries? Do I feel comfortable with myself?

You are manifesting yourself, aka you are changing your assumptions about your person and as a result they have to conform to your assumptions.

If you are a queen therefor you have to get a queen treatment and no matter what

If you see yourself as a queen, then you are going to be treated like one, especially by your person

Everyone in this reality (in your reality) is playing a specific role so let them play according to the script.

1. "If you judge after appearances, you will continue to be enslaved by the evidence of your senses - Neville Goddard"

2. "Everyone on the outside is your servant, your slave, ready and able to do your will. All you need to do is know what you want. Construct a scene that would imply the fulfillment of your desire. Enter the scene and remain there. If your imaginal counselor (your feeling of fulfillment) agrees with that which is used to illustrate your fulfilled desire, your fantasy will become a fact. They will move under compulsion to do your will just as my wife did." - Nevillle Goddard

Are you happy with yourself? Because if you are then you can also be happy with your sp

Start telling yourself the story that you want to experience, leave the old story, you are no longer on that timeline, you are YOU you are now on a new timeline.

And if you "can't just decide" or "assume" then you can create a little foundation for yourself aka that's when methods would come into play.

But assuming in general isn't a hard thing to do

You would ask "but how do I assume?" Just like how you assumed that Moonie would answer your message or you assumed that xyz liked or disliked you

Now you might say "how do I decide?" Just like how you decided what you were going to eat today or decided that you would open Tumblr find my page and ask me a question.

We make decisions every single day

If you love your person, then your person is also yours and that's it.

Just a bonus point: relax and be in the present moment. You and your person are already together in your imagination, so let the 3D take care of things.

"Change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live. Do not try to change people; they are only messengers telling you who you are. Revalue yourself and they will confirm the change."

It's so weird being in my first queer relationship in my mid-30s. I feel kind of like a cat who's never had a stable supportive home that's been brought in by an experienced cat rescuer. I just don't entirely know what to make of the situation even though it's nice. I only had one truely awful boyfriend but I just never really had my own needs met without conflict before.

I've never been with anyone but allocishet men.

I've never experienced a relationship as a man.

I've never experienced a relationship as a man dating another man.

I've never dated a trans person.

I've never experienced an ace relationship.

I've never experienced dating a fellow disabled person.

I gave up on relationships like 6 years ago because I never seemed to fit in them. But I also used to hate romance movies until I started watching queer ones and realized it wasn't romance I hated, it was allocishet romantic norms. And when those are tossed out and challenged I like it quite a lot.

(I've been identifying as aroace but I'm revaluating if I actually don't experience romantic feelings or if the allocishet romantic expectations I was operating under are bullshit I don't identify with. I can and will identify in whatever way ultimately suits me. Definitely queer-romantic though. My labels were valid even if they change, and I could use different labels depending on the audience because I'm in a grey area.)

While I respect the angle that my relationships were queer because I was a queer person in them, my specific relationships were not really queer because either I didn't get to be queer in them (didn't know I was, didn't know how to express it, was treated as a character flaw or lack of maturity to work on), or tried to come out but the parts of me that were queer conflicted with the other person's needs (so we broke up in a healthy way and now are good respectful friends which does meet our needs). This is the first relationship where being queer is foundational and not inconvenient, so that's my demarcation.

Anyway, it's never too late to try approaching relationships differently. You don't have to keep doing what you're doing, whether that's floundering in straight relationships that don't fit or swearing off all relationships. You can muddy the waters between romantic and queerplatonic and make up your own niche habitat and no one can stop you. You can keep figuring it out. You can change every parameter and see if you get the same results.

One headcanon that i just can't agree with is the idea that Darius would/should just stay at home post canon and care only about Hunter and Eber, at best other close friends and whoever he is shipped with, but not about anyone or anything else.

Like, yeah, obviously there are people who are the closest to him, and i definitely think he would need to take a break and revaluate his position as the former Coven Head and take a real vacation for once, but Darius is just so flanderized in the fandom into one direction or another, and i just don't vibe with it. And yes, i understand that sometimes it's simply the result of what people want to focus on in fanworks, but i've also seen it spelled out as headcanons in general, like 'oh, Darius hates all the kids for real and only Hunter is the exception', or 'Darius actually can't stand other people other than his loved ones' (and not in the sense that he is easily annoyed, or it is difficult for him to interact with others, but fully, for real).

First, I am pretty sure Dana herself had said in one interview that Darius wants to care about his loved ones but also to help others in general. And you can see it in the show too - Raine says specifically that he was 'protecting' them even though they were not close at the time of ER, Darius laments how 'we' (the rebels) were too late during the DoU, hinting that he always wanted to save the whole Isles ("but he gave up for Eber" you might say, well, my first meta was about what i think of 'Darius easily chose Eber over the Isles' interpretations - Post). So in one way or another he probably would want to help others post canon as well.

Second, he clearly has several interests and, of course, his passion for abominations that he would likely want to continue to persue. He also seems to be quite happy to conduct Raine's ceremony, so he might also enjoy the role of a public figure in general.

And third and probably the most important thing for me, it just fits the narrative of the show better if Darius opens up to other people who are not the closest to him. Yes, found family is great, but it is not the only thing that matters. There are many instances in the series where it is shown how important community is or how its absense is damaging - and not only to the kids but to adult characters too - and i think it is a very deliberate choice, and one of the good things about toh. (And by that i don't mean - and i don't think the show means either - that every character should become an extrovert and completely change personality, or that every character should like and interact with everyone, it can mean different things).

The biggest example is Eda - she starts the show isolated, and while it's not her fault, in season 1 she is, as Luz had put it, individualistic. But through getting to know Luz, Eda not only develops better relationships within her own found family, but she goes from only agreeing to help Bump in the school because it will help Luz and being distantly playfull at best towards other kids, to trying to reach out to Hunter and to mentor Edric in season 2, and finally to opening her own school; she goes from not wanting to free the conformatorium prisoners to saving a wild witch in ER. Yes, the paternalistic conformity of the EC is shown to be bad, but personal isolation and individualism are also not good. And the same happens with others too. The Bat Queen not only opens up to the palisman adoption program but praises the good qualities of the kids when they tell their wishes. Alador improves his relationship with his children, but he also works on using his inventions for the good of the Isles in the epilogue. It is at least implied that if Camila and Luz had bigger support from the adults around them, and Camila had more friends other than her husband to help her, their life after his death would've been easier. Not as noticable with Raine because of how their arc is written (/negative), but it is at least hinted in the ER that their rebellion wasn't very sucessful because of how small it was. This is more headcanon-y, but i can easily see how Lilith's single-minded focus on finding the cure for her sister caused her to ignore the harm done by the EC. And then, of course there are villains like Belos and Odalia whose focus on the family is twisted.

So, i really don't know why Darius's development should go in a different direction and be focused on isolating rather than opening up to more people - in one way or another, it can take different forms, and doesn't mean that he can't be a private person. It doesn't even mean that he must be a public figure (although i think he might be happy in a position like that), he might just sit and write more text books. But I think getting to mentor someone like Willow (not in abominations but in general sense) or Jerbo would be good for him too.

(And tbh with the way Darius's grief over his mentor was twisted into bitterness, and how he seemed to be very much not over his broken friendship with Alador and possibly Odalia (maybe even Raine) for so long, i can see an interpretation where it would be healing for him to learn to expand his circle and through that to learn how to easier let go of his grievances and adjust to change.)
