Happy birthday to one of my newest favorite composers! This bio is long but take the time to read it, she led a fascinating life and deserved so much more credit for her amazing music.

Laura Constance Netzel (née Pistolekors), b. 1 March 1839 in Rantasalmi, Finland, d. 10 February 1927, Stockholm, grew up in Stockholm and was both pianist and composer (from 1874 onwards using the sobriquet ‘Lago’). She studied composition under Wilhelm Heintze in Stockholm and Charles-Marie Widor in Paris. For many years she also worked as a concert arranger and orchestral director. Most of her compositions are in late Romantic, chromatic style, with touches of contemporary French music, and her work received coverage not least in French music journals.

Laura Constance Pistolekors was born on 1 March 1839 in Rantasalmi, Finland, the youngest of six children. Her mother Emilia (née Malm) died in childbed soon after giving birth to Laura, and the father, collegiate assessor Georg Fredrik Pistolekors, took the family to live in Stockholm when Laura was a year old.

She showed a talent for music from a very early age. Her musical education began under the tuition of Mauritz Gisiko, one of Stockholm’s most sought-after piano teachers. Later she studied singing under the opera singer Julius Günther and piano playing under the Viennese virtuoso pianist Anton Door, who visited Stockholm for the first time in 1857. That same year, aged 18, she made her public début as a pianist, playing Ignaz Moscheles’ piano concerto in G minor with Hovkapellet (the Royal Court Orchestra). Subsequently she took part in several chamber music evenings and in concerts given by Harmoniska sällskapet (the Harmonic Society).

It was not, however, as either singer or pianist but as a composer that Laura Netzel gradually made a reputation for herself. Her composition tutors in adult years included, for example, the organist and conductor Wilhelm Heintze in her home city of Stockholm and, later on, Charles-Marie Widor in Paris. When, at the age of 35, she made a successful début as composer using the sobriquet ‘Lago’ (later on also ‘N. Lago’) with a couple of unaccompanied choruses for women’s voices at one of the Harmoniska sällskapet’s concerts, many people wondered who the composer could be. The following year she presented the beautiful lied ‘Fjäriln’, which made such an impression at one concert that it was encored and caught the attention of composers August Söderman and Ludvig Norman, among others.

‘Lago’s’ compositions were very popular with assistant musicians performing in between the main divisions of concerts. Her development did not come to a standstill after her début as a composer, but her true identity was not revealed until 23 January 1891, when the women’s magazine Idun carried a picture and biography, introducing its readers to Laura Constance Netzel, née Pistolekors, married since 1866 to the eminent gynaecologist Professor Wilhelm Netzel. In addition, the magazine included a previously unpublished, but twice performed and acclaimed, ‘song at the piano’, namely ‘Morgonen’, to words by Johan Ludvig Runeberg. Idun highlights Netzel as a pioneer among Swedish women composers, declaring her compositions to betray ‘masculine strength of inspiration and craftsmanship’.

Netzel’s grandest works include Stabat mater for choir, soloists, organ and instrument combinations, dedicated to Crown Prince Gustaf. It was first performed in 1890, in Östermalm Church, at a charity concert under the Crown Prince’s patronage. Even if − ‘of course’, according to Idun − it was found wanting by comparison with works by acknowledged male masters, it still demonstrated that it was not impossible for a women to ‘penetrate the deeper shafts of creative musical art’. A year later the composition was given an orchestral accompaniment instead of the organ part. In 1898 it was published by Gounin-Ghidone in Paris and acclaimed, for example, in Le monde musical, Le progress artistique and Journal musical. It was reviewed and greatly commended in Gazette Liège and in Romania musicala (Bucharest), which found it a very remarkable piece, distinguished by ‘melodic inspiration, coupled with genuine religious feeling’, while the vocal part was judged to be ‘executed with much competence and aesthetic taste.’

The period between the disclosure of her identity and some time after the turn of the century proved to be Netzel’s most active time as a composer. Swedish newspapers and the specialised musical press frequently reported favourable reviews abroad, most often in the Parisian press but also in Germany, Spain, England and Romania, where her music was considered bold, original and shot through with a Nordic tone. Her most popular compositions included the violin pieces Feu follet (1892) and Berceuse et Tarantelle (1894), as well as the song ‘Voici la brice’ (1895), betraying the influences of more recent French music.

‘Professorskan’ (professor’s wife) Laura Netzel devoted much of her energy to charity and public causes. By arranging concerts and bazaars she furthered the creation of Skansen, Stockholm’s famous open-air museum. Single-handed or in partnership with others, she launched innumerable organisations for the relief of poverty and distress in the Swedish capital. Together with the French pastor Henri Bach she founded a foundation for homeless women, and together with Maria Wærn she started the Samariten organisation in the Södermalm district of Stockholm.

Starting in 1892, Laura Netzel organised musical evenings and, every Saturday from October to April, music soirées for music lovers among the working class population of Stockholm. The whole thing had to be attractive and beautiful, and she was intent on regaling her audiences with the best possible music, with a new programme for every occasion. First she rented premises in Malmskillnadsgatan, then Sveasalen in Hamngatan and finally the auditorium of Vetenskapsakademien (the Royal Academy of Sciences) in Norrtullsgatan. The ballad singer Sven Scholander took part in the very first concert. The violinists Sven Kjellström and Julius Ruthström joined in later, along with singers Märta Petrini, Signe Rappe and Rosa Grünberg. Conservatory students were sent off to attend the workers’ concerts, and Netzel herself conducted both choir and orchestra. She always made sure that only the public for whom the concerts were intended were actually admitted. She was summoned to Paris to organise similar concerts featuring the uppermost French performers, much to the delight of press and public, but following her return to Sweden the interest died down. The workers’ concerts in Sweden also ended in 1908. To a great extent it was the movie theatres that forced her to terminate these activities.

Netzel maintained an outstanding intellectual and physical resilience well into her old age. As late as 11 February 1925 the youthful old lady played her own compositions from memory together with orchestral leader Kjellström. She died on 10 February 1927, survived by a son and two daughters. Her life was described as full, bright and replete with blessings in the service of art and human love.

In 1895, the Women’s exhibition from past to present in Copenhagen invited women composers in the three Scandinavian countries to submit their works for anonymous appraisal. The entries comprised five cantatas, five violin suites and eight choral collections. The jury consisted entirely of men: Victor Bendix, Peter Erasmus Lange-Müller and Franz Neruda. None of the violin compositions found favour in their eyes, but Valborg Aulin was awarded as prize of 200 crowns for her women’s choruses with piano accompaniment. None of the five opening cantata entries received, Netzel’s among them, was judged worthy of the full 300 crowns prize money, and the jury deplored the inability, due to illness, of the foremost women composers Agathe Backer Grøndahl and Helena Munktell to take part in the competition. Laura Netzel and Elisabeth Meyer from Denmark were awarded the prize of 300 crowns to share between them, by way of encouragement, but although Netzel was commended for ‘superior skill and loftier aspiration’, the exhibition was opened to Meyer’s music, as being ‘on the whole most suitable for performance’.

As a species of compensation for the treatment of her cantata, Laura Netzel’s violin suite was performed at one of the women’s exhibition’s soirées, but the reviewer Robert Henriques termed it ‘at best horrendous’. The Stockholm press, and especially Aftonbladet’s Adolf Lindgren, notoriously pilloried the complexity of Netzel’s music: ‘Lago seems’, he wrote on one occasion, ‘to have a genuine horror of being simple and clear’, and subsequently he found her music ‘too intricate’ or ‘somewhat prolix and therefore none too lucid’. Other, similar reviews of her works reveal the tendency for music reviewers to prefer technical complexity in male, not female composers.

Sometimes ‘manliness’ is ascribed to her works and to performances of the same, a ‘manliness’ which probably clashed with the music reviewers’ attitude to women. We are not readily informed what these ‘manly’ attributes consisted of or which of them ‘Lago’ and other women might possibly use (or desist from using) in order to pass muster. When ‘Lago’ chose to write in a less ‘womanly’ style or in ‘manly’ genres, this was remarked on in music journals and daily papers both in Sweden and abroad. For example, in one review of her humoresques (1890) she was counselled to exert herself in favour of a less contrived harmonic texture, because this impeded comprehension and performance of the composition.

Reference to (lack of) masculinity or femininity served as a highly gratifying strategy in the appraisal of ‘Lagos’s compositions, which, according to the Idun article, were characterised by ‘a modulatory artifice and harmonic garb not commonly found among women composers’. Reviewers daring to defy ‘received wisdom’ by viewing ‘Lago’ in a positive light, even in her bolder styles and grander formats, point to her exceptionality among women composers. In The Musical Courier (New York), the French musicologist Eugène Borrel argued in 1905 that ‘Lago’ encountered difficulties in the cultural sphere due to her being a woman composer, and that a man would have been given quite a different reception. Some of what may be termed the qualitative criteria of the time may, it seems, be bound up with general notions of what constituted legitimate culture and of who was entitled to define it.

The Idun article in 1891 also declared women’s achievements in performing arts as far more brilliant than in the creative arts, while at the same time pointing out that, given the same conditions as those applying to men, women composers would be able to achieve works of art rivalling the best compositions by men. Here sceptics are urged to respond to women composers with open, enquiring minds, and among those composers Netzel is accorded pride of place. Agradeço ao professor Fred Nable pela sugestão de postagem.

Approaching zero

Super-chilled mirrors edge towards the borders of gravity and quantum physics.

By David Ernest McClelland and Terry McRae

The LIGO gravitational wave observatory in the United States is so sensitive to vibrations it can detect the tiny ripples in space-time called gravitational waves. These waves are caused by colliding black holes and other stellar cataclysms in distant galaxies, and they cause movements in the observatory much smaller than a proton.

Now we have used this sensitivity to effectively chill a 10-kilogram mass down to less than one billionth of a degree above absolute zero.

Temperature is a measure of how much, and how fast, the atoms and molecules that surround us (and that we are made of) are moving. When objects cool down, their molecules move less.

“Absolute zero” is the point where atoms and molecules stop moving entirely. However, quantum mechanics says the complete absence of motion is not really possible (due to the uncertainty principle).

Instead, in quantum mechanics the temperature of absolute zero corresponds to a “motional ground state”, which is the theoretical minimum amount of movement an object can have. The 10-kilogram mass in our experiment is about 10 trillion times heavier than the previous heaviest mass cooled to this kind of temperature, and it was cooled to nearly its motional ground state.

The work, published today in Science, is an important step in the ongoing quest to understand the gap between quantum mechanics — the strange science that rules the universe at very small scales — and the macroscopic world we see around us.

Plans are already under way to improve the experiment in more sensitive gravitational wave observatories of the future. The results may offer insight into the inconsistency between quantum mechanics and the theory of general relativity, which describes gravity and the behaviour of the universe at very large scales.

How it works

LIGO detects gravitational waves using lasers fired down long tunnels and bounced between two pairs of 40-kilogram mirrors, then combined to produce an interference pattern. Tiny changes in the distance between the mirrors show up as fluctuations in the laser intensity.

The motion of the four mirrors is controlled very precisely, to isolate them from any surrounding vibrations and even to compensate for the impact of the laser light bouncing off them.

This part may be hard to get your head around, but we can show mathematically that the differences in the motion of the four 40-kilogram mirrors is equivalent to the motion of a single 10-kilogram mirror. What this means is that the pattern of laser intensity changes we observe in this experiment is the same as what we would see from a single 10-kilogram mirror.

Although the temperature of the 10-kilogram mirror is defined by the motion of the atoms and molecules that make it up, we don’t measure the motion of the individual molecules. Instead, and largely because it’s how we measure gravitational waves, we measure the average motion of all the atoms (or the centre-of-mass motion).

There are at least as many ways the atoms can move as there are atoms, but we only measure one of those ways, and that particular dance move of all the atoms together is the only one we cooled.

The result is that while the four physical mirrors remain at room temperature and would be warm to the touch (if we let anyone touch them), the average motion of the 10-kilogram system is effectively at 0.77 nanokelvin, or less than one billionth of a degree above absolute zero.

Squeezed light

Our contribution to Advanced LIGO, as members of Australia’s OzGrav gravitational wave research centre, was to design, install and test the “quantum squeezed light” system in the detector. This system creates and injects a specially engineered quantum field into the detector, making it more sensitive to the motion of the mirrors, and thus more sensitive to gravitational waves.

The squeezed light system uses a special kind of crystal to produce pairs of highly correlated or “entangled” photons, which reduce the amount of noise in the system.

What does it all mean?

Being able to observe one particular property of these mirrors approach a quantum ground state is a by-product of improving LIGO in the quest to do more and better gravitational wave astronomy, but it might also offer insights into the vexed question of quantum mechanics and gravity.

At very small scales, quantum mechanics allows many strange phenomena, such as objects being both waves and particles, or seemingly existing in two places at the same time. However, even though the macroscopic world we see is built from tiny objects that must obey quantum phenomena, we don’t see these quantum effects at larger scales.

One theory about why this happens is the idea of decoherence. This suggests that heat and vibrations from a quantum system’s surroundings disrupt its quantum state and make it behave like a familiar solid object.

In order to measure gravitational waves, LIGO is designed to not be affected by heat or vibrations from its surroundings, but LIGO test masses are heavy enough for gravity to be a possible cause of decoherence.

Despite a century of searching, we have no way to reconcile gravity and quantum mechanics. Experiments like this, especially if they can get even closer to the ground state, might yield insight into this puzzle.

As we improve LIGO over the next few years, we can re-do this quantum mechanics experiment and maybe see what happens when we cross over from the classical world into the quantum world with human-sized objects.

Louisville police department gets harsh rebuke in new report commissioned after Breonna Taylor's killing The department is ridden with low morale and is not trusted by the Kentucky city’s communities of color, according to the 150-page report released by city officials. The LMPD has been in the national spotlight since Taylor’s death. The 26-year-old emergency room technician was shot and killed by Louisville police officers in her apartment during a flawed forced-entry raid in the early hours of March 13, 2020. The report made several recommendations, including more community engagement and a better department structure. It noted in particular that that many people of color don’t trust police officers “due to generations of problematic relations.” “We have committed to reimagining public safety, and that requires an unflinching, comprehensive look at what LMPD is doing well, and what can be done better,” Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer said Thursday. “An independent audit like this is an extraordinarily valuable tool in making an organization better, and we plan to lean into the findings here — good and bad.” Key Findings According to the report, a key concern is the low morale in the LMPD. An internal survey conducted in the summer of 2020 showed that approximately 75% of respondents said that if they had a chance to leave and move to another agency, they would, according to Robert Davis, senior vice president of Hillard Heintze, the company hired to conduct the review. In addition, the department is having issues recruiting and retaining new staff, Davis added. The report noted that although the LMPD has incorporated de-escalation training, which has led to a reduction in use-of-force incidents as well as fewer injuries to residents and officers, there are still significant disparities in arrest numbers and inconsistencies in training and leadership. “These are areas that demand our attention. It can be difficult to face up to our failings, but that’s exactly what we have to do, if we want to improve and move forward,” Fischer said. Many reform measures have already being taken, the mayor said. They include Breonna’s Law, which bans no-knock warrants and mandates the use of body cameras for officers serving search warrants. It also encourages officers to volunteer in the neighborhoods they serve. The mayor added that community involvement, transparency and accountability are key to resolving the issues. Louisville’s new police chief, Erika Shields, said the report clearly shows what needs to be addressed and said she will provide regular updates of what is being accomplished. Shields is the former Atlanta police chief who stepped down June 13, 2020 after an officer shot and killed a Black man, Rayshard Brooks, following a struggle at a Wendy’s parking lot. “This report is the roadmap for us to move our department forward… We need to improve, and we have a lot of work ahead of us,” Shields said. The Breonna Taylor raid Taylor’s death, along with that of other Black people at the hands of law enforcement, sparked a summer of protests calling for police reform. Earlier this month, the LMPD fired two detectives, Detective Myles Cosgrove and Detective Joshua Jaynes, connected with Taylor’s shooting, according to copies of the officers’ termination letters. No officer who took part in the raid was charged in Taylor’s killing. Only one of the three officers — Brett Hankison — was charged in connection with the shooting. He was fired last June and pleaded not guilty to the charges in late September. “As I’ve said before: We face a choice today, and it’s not about Black vs. White, or demonstrators vs. police. It’s about the past vs. the future. One we can’t change, and one we will – by working together. America’s eyes have been on Louisville for months now. So, let’s show the nation what we can do. Let’s come together and be that American city that takes itself from tragedy to transformation. Together,” Fischer said.

Yes, I know, there aren’t a lot of women on this list. It is sadly super difficult to both make a list with well known artist and to make it diverse. I am open to suggestions for more artists and more categories. It is obviously difficult in some cases to exactly define the “category” an artist is in, especially when it comes to modern art, as many artists made different works during their lifetime. Categories marked with an “XXX” are there as a filler and aren’t relevant. The order of these is also up to debate, they are roughly chronological in the beginning but not anymore in the end.

---- This is the final list, I won’t make any changes anymore, except moving the different artists into other categories if I see it fit ----

Florida Man Who Dragged A Shark To Its Death Given 10 Days In Jail

We have previously discussed cruel abuse of wild animals by people who then post their twisted achievements on the Internet. One such idiot is Robert Lee “Bo” Benac III who recorded the dragging of a shark to its death behind a high-speed boat. Benac was given a generous a plea deal and sentenced to only 10 days in jail. He is the third person to face charges for the disgusting videotape shoot near Egmont Key, Florida. Benac pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor charges of aggravated cruelty to animals and violation of Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission rules. This is what you get for an open and brutal case of torturing a wild animal to its death.

While Benac asked for leniency of the court, he showed no such empathy on the videotape which recorded the laughter of the men as they tortured the shark.

Michael Wenzel, 23, took a plea deal in February, according to the Bradenton Herald. Spencer Heintz, 35, was also arrested in December 2017, but the charges against Heintz were eventually dropped.

The only reason that these men were discovered and punished was that they were so cruel that they thought other people would find the videotape as funny as they did. Instead, it sparked a global outrage. Yet, this type of wanton cruelty is rarely even subject to a day in jail. As light as this sentence was, it is heavier than the vast majority of such cases.

New story in Politics from Time: John Bolton Says He Told Russian Officials That U.S. Election Meddling Hurt Their Country

(MOSCOW) — U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton said Tuesday that he told Russian officials the Kremlin hurt itself by meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

Wrapping up two days of talks in Moscow, Bolton said he told his Russian interlocutors that Moscow’s meddling has been “particularly harmful for Russian-American relations without providing anything for them in return.”

Bolton dismissed any suggestion that Russian actions may have affected the election results but said “it’s the effort alone to interfere in our elections that are objectionable.

“The fact was that the outcome would have been the same by all the evidence we have,” said Bolton after his talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his top lieutenants.

“What the meddling did was create distrust and animosity within the United States, and particularly made it almost impossible for two years for the United States and Russia to make any progress. That’s a huge loss for both countries, particularly for Russia,” he said. “So it’s a lesson I think: Don’t mess with American elections.”

Russia has staunchly denied any state-sponsored meddling, although Putin has suggested some “patriotic” individual hackers might have been involved.

The U.S. has accused a group of agents with Russia’s GRU military intelligence of a damaging hack of Democratic National Committee emails during the 2016 campaign. Special investigator Robert Mueller indicted 12 people identified as GRU officers in July as part of his probe into possible Russian collusion with Donald Trump’s campaign.

In addition, Mueller has indicted 13 Russians suspected of working for a so-called troll factory that allegedly spread disinformation and manipulated American voters online.

HOW ABOUT A ROYALITY AU!

In which Roman Carson and Patton Roberts are the fluffiest boyfriends ever and celebrate so many anniverseries they dont even remember what they're celebrating but it doesnt matter cuz its always a good time to celebrate their love.

Patton has had so many careers (135 and counting) that it puts into question a lot of things. One of which being his age. He's more or less a confirmed immortal.

Roman is a brilliant engineer who for some reason cant build a car or even a bicycle but can build an entire house for Patton and his brothers---TWICE! and also create flawless AI robots. (sometimes by accident while trying to build a bicycle). But he should probably stop building evil buttons on his robots. (He's a regular heintz doofinshmirtz. Self destructing inators, anyone?)

Patton has the remarkable abbility to never have a bad day even when everything around him is falling apart. Its like the universe likes him too much.

Roman literaly has a Patton sense that tells him when his beloved needs him and lets him know more or less what he's gonna need in order to "save the day".

Patton's little brothers all live with him. Virgil, age 16, Logan, age 13, and Thomas, age 6. (Their personalities are pretty much the same but virgil only hides his love of fashion and teen magazines from people who arent his family, and Thomas really likes to win and isnt afraid to use his cuteness to do it. Altough he still plays fair. There are no rules against being adorable after all.)

Patton, being a the ever friendly and sweet human embodiment of sunshine and rainbows, has gathered many friends over his countless years of existance.

There's Emile, his childhood friend from Willows, Wisconsin. Patton was born and raised there but he has been living in malibu for a long time now. Emile however, was shocked when he came to visit. (Now i dont know if this is some american joke i dont understand so anyone in wisconsin who might be reading this please dont get offended, but in the world this au is based on, wisconsin is so stuck in the past they dont have most modern technology. Or even colors.)

There's Leo, his first and best friend in malibu. Patton swears up and down that if it werent for Leo, he never would have found his place in such a strange new setting.

Leo and Emile get into a little friendly competition when they first meet, both eager to prove they are the best friend, but in the end Patton clears things up and explains how they are all best friends. Valerie was there too! And so was Richard. (Deceit).

Richard is Patton's, self proclaimed, greatest rival. From trying to steal Roman, to trying to steal his spotlight, and all around trying to ruin his life and crush his dreams, Richard has done it all. Repeatedly. And failed. Every. Single. Time. Even though he's an asshole, you gotta admire his dedication. He just doesnt quit! He's a drama queen and an attention whore but everytime he tries to outshine everyone it just backfires on him hilariously. It almost makes you feel bad for him, which Patton does. He only ever tries to be friends with him and he isnt completely naive but he isnt as aware to Richard's attempts to destroy him as the rest of his friends are.

Richard has a twin brother, Remy. Remy is your stereotypical, shallow, vain, conceited jerk who thinks he's hot stuff but really isnt. Simmilarly to his brother, Remy is always trying to steal Patton away from Roman. Patton is aware but tries to make friends with him anyway. Roman however is absolutely furious. However, when Emile first comes to town he sees Remy and immedietly has a crush on him. At first Remy doesnt really notice him cuz he's a little weird. He seems cute but its hard to tell when the guy has no colors. But when Patton gives him a malibu makeover and Remy sees him again, he's positively smitten with him. He tells him that if things dont work out between patton and himself, they should go out sometimes. Emile gets so flustered and nervous he reverts back to his old timey slang and Remy runs off. Emile is certain he drove his crush away with his weirdness again, but actually Remy is just outside by the door freaking out because "holyshit how is he this cute how is that possible what do i DO????"

He still tries to get with Patton cuz thats familliar, so its easy. Even failing has become a comfort to him because its normal. He finds the pattern relaxing. But whenever he sees Emile he bolts the other direction. Trying to talk to Emile would be spontaneous, unpredictable new teritory. Its scary. Remy will never admit it, but he's scared. He'd rather keep failing to impress Patton and fight Roman over it than face getting rejected by someone he might like even more than Patton.

Blaine Gordon (Brain) is actually Patton's ex boyfriend, but they broke up on good terms and have stayed good friends with each other. Blaine has more Energy than he knows what to do with. He is always on the go and likes to live on the edge and push his limits. If its got extreme in the name or if its some kind of competition, he's in. And if its not a competition, it is now. Also he's australian. Yup.

He and Emile also get off to a rocky start. Blaine likes to throw caution to the wind, while Emile likes to embroider caution signs onto decorative pillows. However they manage to find a common ground in macrame. Turns out Blaine is pretty good at it, despite it not being an extreme sport or anything, and that sparks some kind of flame in Emile, an emotion he isnt so fammiliar with, at least not like Blaine is. He finds himself eager to compete with Blaine to prove he's better at macrame. What he treats as a relaxing passtime has now become a competition and honestly? He's never had this much fun. Nor has he ever made these nany macrame creations!

They agree that they tied this time and set a rematch. Its their way of hanging out since they cant really agree on much else. (That is untill they realize they each have a crush on one of the twins and start wingmaning for each other.)

The gang gets into all kinds of crazy shenenigans and maybe if i write this i'll inttoduce some of their other friends!

Let me know what you think so far and if you would like to see more of this.

Oh btw, this is the barbie life in the dreamhouse au! Go watch the show its amazing!

AND AS ALWAYS,

Stay Tuned!

#sanders sides #dee writes #barbie life in the dreamhouse #barbie life in the dreamhouse au #now im gonna keep working on as many wips as i can #to distract myself #from the care bears au and/or crossover my brain is yelling at me to make #wish me luck!
