Lesbian furries cause that's apparently the only thing that my brain would let me draw tonight. It's kind of forbidden romance vibe with an afghan hound and an oriental shorthair cat

nothing more sad than when a topic/noun/whatever is clearly old and yet the wiki page basically starts with "england in the 1800s"

Summoning up the image brings up so many ironies, paradoxes, annoyances, and other difficulties I almost run out of words to express all the concepts. I can see myself waving my arm across the edge saying I am making damn sure I get into Syria, too, despite the fact that my feet are standing on a Turkish military base, and I’m asking if my hand would pat a saluki rather than a tazi if one were to offer itself. To abandon all comic ironies, the saluki/tazi line is an utterly arbitrary linguistic line between Turkic and Arabic, tazi being the Turkic word, and no more than that. Persians, for the record, also use the Turkic form, as does everyone to the east to Mongolia and Siberia. There is no difference between the so-called breeds.

[...]

For instance, the Russians have had as many as seven breeds of Asian sighthounds. These include salukis, tazis, bakhmuhls, aboriginal Afghans, kalagh tazis, Afghan hounds, and taigans. I’ve said it before, and I will again: every one of these is basically a coat type with perhaps some associated structure, and you can find every one in a single litter in northeastern Afghanistan. I have seen pictures of the litter.

Stephen Bodio, The Hounds of Heaven, 2016.

Reading this book reminds me very strongly of the old @desertwindhounds blog, which was a major influence on my thinking about dogs in my twenties. One of the projects that Jess was working on then was restoring the "patterned" Afghan hound by crossing and back crossing to Saluki: she'd found that crosses created the patterned Afghan coat once worn by early imports: naturally short pasterns, saddle, and clean face, with a shorter overall coat that was much easier to maintain in the desert. Absolutely they would have been in contact. I was very sad when harassment largely drawn from the Saluki breed community drove Jess's blog offline.

I keep thinking about landraces and variation and replicability, not least because I think about how our models of nature impose socially constructed categories that aren't necessarily real... until and unless humans make it so.

(There's also some interesting but rather in-aside description of working Dachshunds here for @wyrddogs , though most of Bodio's heart is still with the tazis. Have you read it? Much of the book is about falconry with dogs, though the hunting bitch Bodio mentions is a wire standard and not one of the little long haired minis that you mention being bred for falconry.)

And of course I wind up thinking about how individual preferences in husbandry create differences in what dogs must adjust to in order to reach adulthood successfully, and how this creates difficulties when strains of dogs that have adapted to life in one context are suddenly lifted into another, very different context, and how that changes the nature of the dogs themselves over time as individuals that fail to adapt are removed from breeding pools.

thankfully the working type of Afghan Hound(Khalag Tazi) are still alive and well in Afghanistan and Pakistan <3

Almost exactly 16 years after the Israel lobby won a bitter high-profile battle against a key appointment by the then-director of national intelligence, it seems to have one won another, virtually without firing a shot.

The abrupt withdrawal this week of the appointment of Daniel Davis, who has criticized Israel’s conduct of its war in Gaza, as deputy director of national intelligence for mission integration under DNI Tulsi Gabbard reportedly resulted from complaints by pro-Israeli forces within the Trump administration and Congress, as well as outside groups, including the Anti-Defamation League.

The withdrawal recalled a much more protracted and dramatic fight over the appointment by former DNI Adm. Dennis Blair (Ret.) of former Amb. Chas Freeman, Jr., a legendary Foreign Service Officer and former senior Pentagon official, as chairman of the National Intelligence Council (NIC) at the outset of the Obama administration in March 2009. After several weeks of controversy and in the face of fierce and arguably defamatory criticism, Freeman took himself out of consideration.

Davis, a senior fellow at Defense Priorities and a retired Army officer who helped expose the failures of the U.S. military intervention in Afghanistan during the Obama administration, fell victim to what had been a quiet campaign to prevent his appointment that surfaced publicly Wednesday when the Jewish Insider website reported that he had been tapped for the job.

afghan hound

i cannot imagine the dedication that must go into maintaining this breed’s coat… but they are always so gorgeous nonetheless! afghan hounds come in many coat colors besides this golden crème, but i thought id highlight the color specifically as it isn’t very commonly seen anymore :-(

What, do you think, was Ocelot's opinion on Jackal when he first met him? And what was Jackal's characteristics/description provided to Ocelot?

His first opinion on meeting Jackal properly when Venom brought him back to Mother Base sedated after rescuing him was probably along the lines of ‘so this is the little shit that’s been trying to kill the Boss for several months.’

I little bit of a background to give some context (I say a bit it’s a really fucking long summary so I’m sorry about that lmao it does provide the context as to why Ocelot feels the way he does about him though):

The first time Jackal tried to kill Venom was at the hospital in Cyprus after Venom woke up from the 9 year coma but he arrived after all hell had been let loose and the hospital was on fire and decided ‘yeah ok maybe not today’ and just turned back around. However he did wait around a bit and started tracking Venom and Ocelot to Afghanistan, which is where he started actually trying to kill him (obviously it didn’t go to plan). This is also when Ocelot realised they were being followed so he started keeping tabs on Jackal too.

Fast forward a bit, turns out it was Cipher who had posed as a client and hired Jackal through the mercenary organisation he was affiliated with to kill Big Boss, which Jackal was not aware of but it explained why some of his mercenary buddies had gone missing recently because they were hired to do the same thing as him which he is now the replacement for so now he’s pissed, and unfortunately since he’d failed to kill Venom several times Cipher deemed him no longer useful so they handed him over to the Soviets under the false claims that he was allied with Venom and that he was helping to sabotage and blow up their facilities. Soviets decide ‘ok well we fucking hate this guy and the man he works for let’s torture him until he dies but draw out his suffering to send a message to Big Boss’ so Jackal’s then being held captive at one of their stations where there are some other prisoners.

A few days later, Jackal is hanging onto his life by a thread, been beaten up and tortured really badly, bleeding with broken bones, all that lovely stuff—luckily this is one of the places Venom has been tasked to infiltrate and rescue the prisoners, especially those who could be useful. Eventually he finds where Jackal is being held captive after looking through the cells, and as Ocelot is keeping an eye on Venom in his mission as usual, he recognises this fucker as the merc who’s been hounding Venom for months but realises that ‘wait if he’s here that means he’s an enemy of Cipher we could use him’ so they decide to haul his ass back to Mother Base. Whilst Jackal is in a lot of pain and exhausted, he’s still awake so he hears this exchange (or at least Venom’s side of it) and as soon as Venom approaches Jackal to pick him up, he tries to lash out because ‘this is the guy I’ve been trying to kill for months and he’s the reason my friends are dead’ and Jackal manages to bite him, which with his metal fang causes a gash in Venom’s arm, and in exchange Venom gives him a little gift (tranq dart to the neck).

Jackal wakes up in a room on the medical platform at Mother Base, muzzled and handcuffed to the bed so he can’t escape or attack anyone, which was Ocelot’s idea, because whilst Venom recognises that he’s dangerous and he’s attempted to kill him, Ocelot’s the one who’s been collecting information on him and has a file for Jackal, so he knows that this is a man who’s been a soldier for over half of his life and is known for his untrustworthiness and ruthlessness, and that the only reason he didn’t succeed in killing his last target was because he was up against Venom, no way in Hell was he going to let that man on Mother Base without ensuring he couldn’t hurt anyone, even if he’s severely injured and barely able to move. So it’s safe to say that Ocelot absolutely does not trust him. His affiliation with Cipher also doesn’t help. Whilst Jackal is nowhere near as dangerous as Quiet who also had an affiliation with Cipher, Quiet’s only tried to kill Venom a couple of times and mostly seems to fight back if provoked (from what I remember anyway it’s been a while since I’ve played TPP), whereas Jackal has tried to kill Venom about 10 times over a longer time span and will attack unexpectedly for seemingly no reason (Venom rescued Jackal a while after Quiet was recruited and he was still trying to kill this man at that point).

This is also why Ocelot is Jackal’s handler—whilst he has no doubts that Venom can handle himself in a fight against Jackal, he’d rather not risk it. Plus Venom’s not the resident torturer, and if Jackal tried to still kill Venom after being beaten and tortured by the Soviets for several days even after how weak he was then it will probably take a lot to get him to calm down fully, and Ocelot’s more than prepared to take on that responsibility.

In terms of the information Ocelot had of Jackal before joining Mother Base, when Jackal first started hunting them, Ocelot got a look at the patch he wore which had the logo of the merc organisation he was associated with and managed to find his files in their database—there wasn’t a lot of information on him, mostly his real name, nickname and a couple of photos of him as well as D.O.B., height and weight, nationality etc. There was also information of how long he’d been a merc for, where he previously served and how long as well as a general run-down of his proficiencies and fighting style. There were a couple of important things that weren’t in his file, such as the benign tumours on his adrenal glands that caused him to produce excess adrenaline which contributed to his fast reflexes, tirelessness, alertness, high pain tolerance and aggressive tendencies as well as his panic attacks and sudden outbursts, but Ocelot found this out after a medical examination after he was brought back to Mother Base and being treated for his injuries. Cue Ocelot testing different drugs and medication on Jackal to see which ones calm him down the most or reduce his adrenaline levels to get him to behave normally. Another thing that wasn’t in his file is that he’s a surprisingly good welder, so when he’s not training or in a mission he’ll usually be in R&D and helping develop things.

Going back a bit to Ocelot’s view of Jackal when he first met him, apart from the fact he posed a threat, he realised that Jackal was just. Rude. Him being a soldier for 20 years apparently didn’t get rid of his authority issues. He doesn’t like listening to people which is something that got on Ocelot’s nerves. He did realise Jackal’s potential to be a very useful soldier so he refused to give up on him but he just absolutely could not stand him. Which is why in a lot of my art where those two are together they won’t be seen getting along lmao.

Update!

In this chapter, Eddie starts to Lose It™ (not that he would admit it (it also for sure has nothing to do with buck having a new boyfriend btw)), Buck gets a new couch, and the word "Fine" is repeated 34 times.

Chapters: 5/20 Fandom: 9-1-1 (TV) Relationships: Evan "Buck" Buckley/Eddie Diaz (9-1-1 TV) Rating: M | Words: 36k (slow burn babey)

Chapter Snippet:

Once, at Buck's request, Eddie had watched a documentary about a tribe deep in the Amazon rainforest. When the boys of the tribe reached twelve years old, they could go through a rite of passage to become men. For the rite, they had to put their hands inside gloves filled with Bullet Ants, one of the most painful insect bites on the entire planet. They kept their hands in the gloves as they danced and the ants stung. And Eddie was horrified. As a father, as a son, as a man himself. But he kept wondering about it. Wondering what it’d feel like for him — to earn his manhood through one single ritual. Not having to slowly learn and muddle his way through it. Not having to be repeatedly punched in the face by his failures at it. Thrown into the Texas dirt, dragged through the Afghanistan desert, crushed by 40 feet of Californian earth. The thought made him at ease. Attaining manhood by trading in a few days of semi-unbearable pain. Eddie had had quite a few of those already. But they didn’t make him feel more like a man. He just kept fucking failing.
