Memorial of Our Lady of Fatima

Lk 11:27-28

While Jesus was speaking,

a woman from the crowd called out and said to him,

"Blessed is the womb that carried you

and the breasts at which you nursed."

He replied, "Rather, blessed are those

who hear the word of God and observe it."

the "foundation" of the castle will use prismarine blocks btw, here's a rough example

i can't decide, and i keep forgetting about all the blocks they've added in the past few years which makes me excited and harder to make a decision

realistically the only thing roier cubito did on that stupid boat as it slowly but surely and inevitably got further and further away from that stupider island was stand there in shock. pure, body numbing shock. I don't think the reaction hit until hours later and by then the max it could be was probably some sort of "that stupid fucker but what else was there to expect at this point" and then immediately transitioning over to the cellbit is dead i've got a dead husband he's as dead and as stiff in the ground as bobby truthing. like that's just how he is he doesn't cry he doesn't make a big scene (when there are other people around) and if he does it's only because whatever he's making a big scene over doesn't really matter, or it's fixable and doesn't matter as much as it could. or because it's objectively funny to see him flop around like some sort of oversized magikarp which thus pulls more attention to his actions and metaphorical fish flopping and less to the reasoning behind said actions (his heart practically physically breaking). but VISUALLY and like. CINEMATICALLY man does the visuals of him desperately trying to throw himself over the boat's edge only to have to be held back by etoiles and fit with bagi and phil standing solemnly at his shoulders go hard. it goes very very hard. no wonder people are making fanart of that version instead of the first one

as an appalachian girl lucy gray’s character (and by extension the covey band) really cuts me deep because that’s my people. my life, my dances, my instruments. and within two-three generations all of it is gone.

I collect the final messages of abandoned spacecraft we’ve sent to other celestial bodies, as if they were last words and epitaphs.

I think I’m trying to say, I love you. I will remember you. I will not abandon the memory of you.

I’m trying to say, your existence was necessary, and I am glad for it.

I have days where I think, what will my own last words be?

What will be their legacy? Will somebody care for them? Will somebody tend to them? Shower upon them the kindness of remembrance?

Will I just become a ‘the end’ screen projected onto an unmarked tombstone?

Will I just be a eulogy that ends with good riddance?

What light do you see Loustat in? Some people see loustat in a grim light where the abusive aspects of their relationship are brought to the front but others see them in a way where they work through that and are happy in each other’s space. Though, I could never really pin how you see them.

i feel like this is a very flippant answer to what is a well thought out question but TLDR i l think lestat x louis are foundational to the western yaoi canon..

yk how bell hooks has a book all about love i dont feel like she was fair in some aspects namely in suggesting that ppl who harm u cant love u . love like anything else is a feeling, that does not always translate in the material. taking this to the head we can see in history how ppl can be galvanized into commiting the worst of deeds based off a ~belief~ or abstract notion of love or loyalty (that materially benefits them/the party theyre on). so i dont feel like love is inextricable from harm , ppl can hold feelings that do not always manifest in ideal ways. this goes both for my lesypoo would neva types & my lou dont love dat evil bitch types. love is complicated especially the love of immortals. cuz thats ultimately what monsters r. a rhetorical device in fiction to explore humanity’s capacity for evil. book leslou was fascinating in part bc louis was an old school bougie planter who got outdaddied by this noble land-poor european country lord.if the vampire prior to this was the fear of the exotic immortal east; then in book!iwtv& its response tvl , the roguish european hero imparts itself in creating the colonial planter (louis) & later… in a battle against the old east (twmbk). meta wise yes louis was bitchy to lestat in tobt bc anne at the time wanted david to be w les but even looking at tvl & qotd louis hes exceptionally tender to lestat in no small part bc he adored lestat’s inner strength as a man (using this to mean disposition here. very antifeminist of me), and struggled between acknowledging his longing for him .. and in tobt he struggled with the sort of subversion of dynamics . what could a weakened lestat do for him? what could he do to a weakened lestat? that scared him. he cared for a weakened lestat in mtd enough to claw at walls soo. who knows! and in both adaptations louis is lestat’s baby.(even if show lestat put louis in an A/C compressor) comparing this to show leslou, theres no need for an older lestat to cosplay being the gold digger here (or be viewed as such in louis’s narration?), especially in the face of a black younger louis. whos given an addled sort of anger / passion rooted in his encroaching disempowernment v the power he possesses intracommunaly as a creole bm .. lestat asking louis howd u get in here? XXX HOT EBONY—[is shot]. and the second interview louis is certainly more readily able? or willing? or ??? w/ his longing for lestat? if not himself in a moment (‘bled him like a pig’) then we as the viewers can deduce such (seeing past louis cry over a bleeding out lestat). thats the nature of adaptation baby. and going back to the love point, it reminds me it was either jacob or sam who said it its a shame my recall is failing atm cuz i rly liked the way they put it. leslou love eachother but dont really like eachother. of course people can syncretize aspects of the later books (s/o barbara and retirement in auvergne!) or even extrapolate a lot from their scenes in the show in hopes of seeing their show counterparts grow to like eachother in fan content irdgaf. the show has adapted what was priorly universally agreed to be the darkest period of lestat and louis’s relationship. where people diverge is in the semantics & decisions made in adaptation, but it serves a purpose to a story that is yet unclear to us! bear in mind this is the first cour of interview, 1 book of 15.. for example nobody was predicting that the show would weave in the wider chronicles by incorporating a second interview before s1 came out. i guess thats why my take on leslou (presuming the show vers is wym) is so unclear bc im an uncreative boor & can only look at whats given on text or in screen… this is sublime western yaoi

I mean, luck can indeed ruin even the best laid plans.

Oh, absolutely it can.

Which is why you need the people with the best luck on deck to make sure that even luck won't fuck you over.

The light in the plane matched the cover colors, but that still wasn't enough to keep me sane for all the angst in this volume. Bruh. I don't even know what I'm hoping for, but it better involve a lot of talking between Mo Xi and Gu Mang bc HOLY SHIT DO THEY NEED TO JUST T A L K .

USE YOUR WORDS DAMMIT. PLEASE. I AM B E G G I N G GU MANG TO JUST USE HIS BIG BOY WORDS THE SAME WAY HE BEGS MO XI TO FUCK HIM INTO OBLIVION.

[enypneon]

the way v can refuse hands when he needs them most and he literally locks the door for one last attempt at persuasion is the moment his suave mask falls even if only for a second ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ

like when you first meet him and he starts to read the chessmen of mars? is such a subtle yet upfront way to say “you're a little bitch”

you're a chess piece and there's nothing you can do now you have been absorbed by this game MY game

AND LET'S NOT forget when he tells v they earned their silver slippers, comparing them to dorothy and when asked about what role he takes he claims to be the narrator, who is third-person omniscient, which means he thinks he is and probably is all-knowing, even of things he "shouldn't"/isn't expected to be aware of.

Me BSing hcs like: The fact that Kae is not only able to create a shield when he is dangerously low HP but also the fact that he is able to regenerate HP when he hits opponents with Frostgnaw is definitely due to him receiving his Vision when Diluc had tried to kill him in their Confrontation...but could it be possible that his familial ties to the Abyss Order could have influenced that HP drain of his-

Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene

Jn 20:1-2, 11-18

On the first day of the week,

Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early in the morning,

while it was still dark,

and saw the stone removed from the tomb.

So she ran and went to Simon Peter

and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them,

"They have taken the Lord from the tomb,

and we don't know where they put him."

Mary stayed outside the tomb weeping.

And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb

and saw two angels in white sitting there,

one at the head and one at the feet

where the Body of Jesus had been.

And they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?"

She said to them, "They have taken my Lord,

and I don't know where they laid him."

When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus there,

but did not know it was Jesus.

Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?

Whom are you looking for?"

She thought it was the gardener and said to him,

"Sir, if you carried him away,

tell me where you laid him,

and I will take him."

Jesus said to her, "Mary!"

She turned and said to him in Hebrew,

"Rabbouni," which means Teacher.

Jesus said to her,

"Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father.

But go to my brothers and tell them,

'I am going to my Father and your Father,

to my God and your God.'"

Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples,

"I have seen the Lord,"

and then reported what he told her.

Saw a screencap of a “haha funny” mocking microsoft word for being useless and also very accepted, and I don’t know enough to really agree or criticize most of it BUT I do have a gripe with it because they said you can’t move images well, and I’ve gotta say. As someone who spent a probably large amount of time making collages on Word in like 2nd or 3rd grade, it’s really easy for me to get images to do what I want by changing the settings and I’m not sure if that’s common knowledge or just because I spent so much time mucking around with Word as a kid.

(we’re talking 40+ pictures of trees and waterfalls and stuff, hand-aligned, rotated/reordered etc., and surreptitiously printed in color on a lab computer. Why did I do this? Why this form of self-expression? Who else did it? How did I have the time? To all of those questions I say: I don’t know but I went at it with an intensity and passion I can only envy today)
