Barbossa from Pirates of the Caribbean

Name: Hector Barbossa Age: 50 Profession: Harbormaster Pronouns: He/Him FC suggestions: Sean Bean, Idris Elba, Liam Cunningham Face Claim: Geoffrey Rush Availability: Taken

Hector's family had lived in this godforsaken town as long as he could remember. His father had been the Harbormaster for decades before a son had been even a thought and before him, so had his grandfather and his grandfather before that. This town was where good men go to die. Hector's mother had said that.

Good thing he'd never been a good man.

What miserable trade the town took part in went through the docks. No man with a lick of sense would take the land route here. Not with the treachery of the winds and rain that haunted visitors. It skulked in the shadows of townsfolk and tourists alike until it ran out the latter.

The sea was different. You could trust the stars, feel the breath of the sea in each rise and fall of the waves. Hector had worked those waters before he'd taken his father's place. He'd sailed the ferry ships for tourists around the coast, navigated the old fishing vessels, his sweat and blood had mixed with the ocean and so he too was a part of it.

Of course, his blood had found home other places. Too many a barfights in his youth earned him a stool at the seedy joints. Unless he had a bribe to take, he didn't frequent the upscale bars. No point in taking up space where one isn't wanted. He'd already earned a reputation as a salty bastard. It'd grown on him.

As it came to be, he was a man of many hats. If something needed to be brought into the town unnoticed, money needed to end up in Barbossa's hand. A shipment could go missing easily if no one knew to look for it. If a body needed to be disposed of, few locals braved the water past the shoals. If the current took it, it'd never wash up near enough Godscobh to raise any brows. This life of backroom deals had set him up nicely, and he had no complaints.

Only aspirations of more.

Notable character information: Barbossa's selfish desires cost them everything in the end.

Kenji and his cow Hanako II were the best duo from wan change my mind

[blluespirit]

there are so many amazing and powerful benders in atla but what i love about zuko is that whether or not he can use his bending in that moment has zero (0) bearing on how much he’s going to absolutely kick your ass. no bending? that’s fine - he’s got swords. no swords or bending? that’s fine - he’s literally just going to beat you up. if you’re REALLY unlucky then you get all three. as a treat.

Whenever I see people call ICIMI boring or the worst album this image flashes in my mind

On the idea of Theseus's Ship: in the end, it's still his, isn't it? It was known as Theseus's, and it will continue to be known as Theseus's.

Even after he has returned to the ground which grew the wood of the hammer used to nail the ship's frame, Even after generations of new wood have rotted and the sails are rags clinging to threads, Even after millennia,

it will still be Theseus's Ship.

Thank you for bringing us home.

Goodnight, Phosphophyllite.

Look, I know we all joke about Emmrich, but let's recap this man's schedule immediately before the romance scene: (spoilers, obviously)

fought Ghilan'nain 

fade prison recovery efforts

curse diagnostics

banged Rook (within an inch of their life if Rook the next morning is anything to go on) in a coffin

got up an hour before dawn to exercise.

offers to get Rook breakfast (or possibly went back in the coffin for round 2)

His hips are fine.

The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, by Ilan Pappé (2006, p. 72)

The rhetoric from Israel and their defenders really hasn't changed one bit, has it? Months and months of terrorizing Palestinian villages, and the moment they retaliate, it must be because the Arabs are violent Nazis set to exterminate the oh-so-peaceful Zionist settlers for no other reason than them being Jewish

And what were the Zionists settlers - with Ben-Gurion's explicit approval - doing at the time?

Pappé (2006, p. 58)

Similarly, in the villages:

Pappé (2006, p. 57)

Still the same playbook, 75+ years later...

Also, it's important to understand that these violent attacks against Palestinian cities and villages - and there were many more in the winter of 47/48 than the examples included here - were part of a larger, deliberate operation meant to 'drive out' (i.e. ethnically cleanse) the Native population of Palestine. It didn't matter if the Palestinians were just quietly living their life in the countryside; if they were not Jewish, they would had to go. And if the Zionists could not find a pretext for retaliation, they would make one.

In the aftermath of the UN partition, this operation of ethnic cleansing - without 'pretext' - was not only openly discussed, but approved of, by Ben-Gurion and the rest of the Zionist leadership:

Pappé (2006, p. 64)

What we're seeing today in Gaza - with the collective punishment of 2 million Palestinians - is the continuation of this very same Zionist program of ethnic cleansing that Israel was founded on.
