Alison Rowdy (+Gabriel) | Not going back

[ship-recced]

Rec of the Week: “alison & gabriel (liaison) | our love is a ghost” fanvid

Sometimes you see your hyperfixations coming, and sometimes they’re completely unexpected. I had never even heard of Apple TV’s French spy drama Liaison when I tuned into this edit from @simplymaterial. But within moments I was hooked and needed to watch the 6-episode show ASAP, which is exactly what I did.

Alison and Gabriel’s relationship, depicted beautifully in this fanvid, is fascinating in its complexity. Neither wishes to be drawn to the other, but it’s like wishing the sun won’t set: futile. Despite the hurt and betrayals in their past, Alison and Gabriel’s love is pure. You can see it in their quiet moments as much as in their grand gestures of self-sacrifice.

Come for the hauntingly romantic song and stay for the intense love story playing out amid an international conspiracy…

i like the idea of pat being super physically affectionate like even in the tiniest little ways because obviously he worked with kids for a decade, so his instinct is always a hand on your shoulder or a high five or a hug or a ruffle of your hair. so like sometimes alison will say something funny and he'll go to clap her on the back and make himself nauseous. she gets a cramp and grabs onto the railing of the stairs and he automatically tries to put a hand on her arm to steady her. mike is cooking and about to touch a hot pan and pat instinctively tries to push his hand out of the way and he doubles over through the stove.

and then with the ghosts like it took a loooong time for some of them to get comfortable with it because most of them are really repressed and come from time periods where casual affection like that is just unheard of. every time someone gets walked through pat is there to rub their back. when cap is on patrol and pat is walking with him looking at the birds, he puts a hand on his shoulder to guide him out of the way before he steps on some gardening equipment. sometimes he catches himself licking his thumb and rubbing some soot off of mary's face without even meaning to. julian hurts his finger straining to type and pat instantly pretends to offer a bandage and kisses it better. he'll do that dad thing where he just falls asleep on the couch and robin will curl up next to him. when he wakes up and robin's still asleep he pets his head and furs as robin snores. he offers to fix fanny's hair when they've had a particularly rowdy day despite the fact that it will fix itself in 5 minutes. he hugs kitty good morning every day. do you see my vision.

My Preferred Role in Environmental Interpretation 

Hey everyone! Recently I’ve been considering some future roles I could pursue in nature interpretation. I’m currently practicing nature interpretation by writing this blog post. However, not to disappoint you guys, but this is not necessarily my perfect dream role. 

Ideal Role

In terms of an ideal role for me as a potential environmental interpreter, I think I would enjoy an interpretive position talking and connecting to people in person at a camp, national park, or nature-tourism location. I know that with digital advances, interpretation is pretty common online with websites, blogs, and social media. However, I find connecting in-person to be the most rewarding and desirable role and would therefore prefer interpretation that engages with people in person. And, with my love for being outdoors, being an interpreter on a nature hike in a National Park could be an ideal role for me.

This is a picture I took while walking along a boardwalk in PEI National Park. A location such as this would be a lovely location for an interpretive nature hike

However, I am currently inexperienced in the role of public speaking, and lack sufficient practice in environmental interpretation. Therefore, a good practice role for now could be interpreting nature 1-on-1 or in a small group with friends at a location I’m familiar with. This would provide excellent hands-on experience, while still fulfilling my desire to personally connect with people in an outdoor nature setting. 

Where Might it Be?

I currently attend the University of Guelph, and there is a beautiful arboretum essentially on campus with many beautiful trails, and a wide diversity of trees, plants, and animals. This could make for an optimal location for practicing nature interpretation with some friends, and I think many people would easily enjoy it. There are also a lot of informational resources surrounding it, which I could incorporate to provide background information on the Arboretum to my audience. Another good practice location would be nature trails in parks in my hometown that I have a personal connection to. This could help me create a personal connection to my audience when interpreting the location. 

Skills to Develop

There are definitely some more specific skills I need to develop in order to be an effective interpreter. For example, the overarching principle of nature interpretation according to Tilden (a famous founder of nature interpretation) is embracing a love for the place and for the visitors (Beck et al., 2018; p. 83). It is generally easy for me to love the natural place that I’m in because of my passion for nature and the outdoors. But. sometimes it can take conscious effort to love all your visitors, especially if you have some especially rowdy ones. 

According to the book Interpreting Cultural and Natural Heritage: For a Better World, a nature hike should progress in some orderly, story-like fashion so as to reach audiences of all ages (Grinder & McCoy, 1985). So, I definitely need to figure out how to craft an effective story while leading a hike on a nature trail.

Anyways, to summarize this post, I think an ideal future nature interpretation role for me would be to lead a nature hike at a national park or similar location. Leading an interpretive hike professionally would require the development of many skills, including public speaking, learning to craft a story, and learning to connect with people effectively.

If you haven’t heard of The Lavender Book Club yet then oh boy! I have a very appealing club you might want to join.

The Lavender Book Club has one major goal for all of us: to read more books written by and about LGBT writers. Right now, the club is pretty small and all conversations have been very chill. It is a discourse-free zone. If I see people getting too rowdy over anything that isn’t related to the book, they will immediately be kicked out of the server. Any attacks on anyone else’s identity or labels or experiences will not be tolerated.

If you would like to check out our Discord server, you can join here.

Transcript under cut:

An Introduction to the Lavender Book Club: a queer book club hosted by The Lavender Showcase, a blog dedicated to sharing and spreading works by LGBT writers

What Does the Book Club Read?

The Lavender Book Club reads books written by/about queer people. The books currently on our list vary. We have sci-fan, fantasy, YA, contemporary literature, romance, and non-fiction.

Every month, we try following a theme. Every theme is a bit vague. It could be just classics, YA, or non-fiction. There is quite an impressive spreadsheet, so we're currently not looking for any new suggestions. We're trying to pick through the books we've already been recommended.

When Does the Book Club Meet?

The book club "meets" every third Sunday of the month. It's 100% text-based meetings.

Most of the conversation happens in our Discord server, but anyone is also welcome to have conversations on Tumblr. You can send in asks or tag us if you would like to have us engage with your thoughts. You could also use the hastag #lavender book club and see who else is following the tag!

What Have We Read So Far?

The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun. Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas. Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuin. Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu.

How to Join Our Club

Anyone can join any way they want!

The invite link is posted [above]. Meetings are chill so there is no need to worry about how much you're talking. You don't even have to finish the book! A lot of times, in meetings, a good number of us haven't finished the book. Those who have, though, usually use spoilers to black out their text.

You can also just hop on Tumblr when the meeting day comes and chat however you like with other people who have read the book.

There's no pressure to read every book every month. If you just want to join because you think our current read looks interesting, that's fine! If you want to sit out some months because you can't find the books or aren't interested, that's fine too!
