"What struck me on the beach — and it struck me indeed, so that I staggered as at a blow — was that if the Eternal Principle had rested in that curved thorn I had carried about my neck across so many leagues, then it might rest in anything, and in fact probably did rest in everything, in every thorn on every bush, in every drop of water in the sea. The thorn was a sacred Claw because all thorns were sacred Claws; the sand in my boots was sacred sand because it came from a beach of sacred sand. The cenobites treasured up the relics of the sannyasins because the sannyasins had approached the Pancreator. But everything had approached and even touched the Pancreator, because everything had dropped from his hand. Everything was a relic. All the world was a relic. I drew off my boots, that had traveled with me so far, and threw them into the waves that I might not walk shod on holy ground." - Gene Wolfe, Citadel of the Autarch. 1983. p. 258.

I could neve-” yeah bro mhm talk about it after the gwa and rciel reveal#also fellas is it gay to *pretend* to try to wake up your master just so you can have an excuse to carry him?#and then sing about how every night you fantasize about kissing him and holding him?#is it fellas??#and the whole scene of alan's death when in his memories he and eric VERY PLATONICALY look at falling petals and he goes#“ah so beautiful it looks like snowfall :)”#and fucking moments later sebastian kills eric the souls are flying everywhere just so ciel could go#“ah so beautiful it looks like snowfall :|”#I'm going fucking insaine I hate it here every time is like the first#"some things are simply meant to be beautiful” proceeds to STARE AT CIEL FOR A GOD DAMN ETERNITY#I can't I literally can't I'm miserable#sebaciel#was so busy with my rant I even forgot to include the tag at first oh my god

Today on Pop Culture Addressed By Ancient Theologians: Does Free Guy synthesize the tension between will and intellect as the vehicles of ultimate human bliss as seen in Thomistic medieval theology?
#I’m Tired so my thoughts are jumbled but if the Franciscans were like the will ie act of love is the ultimate experience of happiness and#Aquinas was like um actually to will something means something is unfulfilled ie wanting and that’s not perfect#but perfect knowledge can be perfect because people want it for itself therefore intellect gives us happiness in contemplating God#yeah#does free Guy resolve that tension in its world view by going#freedom to choose is only present where love is present as the lens by which we see the world?#wait idk but like#Jody and the parallel world of Guy attain happiness not only when they will for love’s sake but when they see love#like there has to be the willing and eternal/constant/continual humming yes! of the will and the intellectual Knowing/Seeing the Love#idk too big for me#whatever else this is teaching me I’m naturally inclined toward the Franciscans#pov#like I get what St Thomas is saying and he definitely is making points but I’m like nerd. where is the love#and it is there of course but he gets so caught up in the understanding cause he likes to understand! that IS how he loves!#but im like if you haven’t used the word love at least 99 times in your principle statement what even are you#sgjhdsgovc#anyway the answer is it’s both and you can’t split the hairs too fine#but only to understand how they fit together#love is willing (yes!) and seeing (also saying yes!)#so when Pieper was like love is saying it’s good that you exist#it’s the assent to (with the will) and the seeing of (with the intellect)#idk processing processing lots of thoughts

and tbh the time skip in switch and knights climax events is what makes me the most mad of it all. "oh true hmm maybe i should've added foreshadowing earlier for my acid-trip plot to work hmm well ill start the story at the beginning of the year and then do a bunch of timeskips" no you absolute idiot you are going to write your stupid story on the foundations you built before or ill kill you
#like honestly even if the characters interactions are good#the plot is just too much. it makes me mad#i havent read either story yet but by principle im not too fond tbh#ughh#you'd think after the story released i would be less anxious about knights climax but nooo#honestly i cant think of much of a reason to read it besides maybe nice izlo#but that. is not really what i look for in a tsukasa event you know............#and since he for some reason had that tour this year itll take an eternity till his next event sighs#but well he is a sweet and charming and lovely and honest boy im sure the story will be good for him regardless..........#but im still mad tf. so many possible plot threads and he had to go and make up an entire new thing ugh#mar's midnight rambles

#he is my heart’s delight#i am wasting away with longing for him#it’s not just how beautiful and sexy and adorable he is#it’s so much more#it’s his strength and kindness and intelligence and honor#his refusal to give up no matter what life throws at him#his total dedication to his principles#his unending love and devotion to his family#and his willingness to sacrifice himself for something greater#i would follow him to the ends of the earth and lay down my whole life at his feet#currently waiting by the window for him to sweep me up in his arms and carry me to a world where i can spend my life loving him#my precious beloved husband i am eternally soft for him#gladiator#russell crowe#maximus#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000

roharp is really just eternal longing, cursed to never be together, always separated by fate's works
#me whenever i read ronan and harpe's connection dialogs: QAQ#also whenever any chara mentions those two in one sentence#like everyone probably knew they loved each other except for like maybe themselves#not bc they were oblivious but bc they knew they'd always prioritize their responsibilities#they never thought the other would give up their principles for each other when in fact they would most definitely do#like ronan straight up willing to give up his life to follow harpe to the underworld if it wasn't for the rest of the gc#harpe for a hot second considering visiting the mortal world if it wasn't because he remembered myunghwarin was now his new 'master'#not to mention the t universe...#harpe would most definitely drag ronan back and keep him to himself if he could#especially after finding out ronan spends his time with lass (a thief) after leaving him behind#wassi rambles#me and my eternal grand chase brainrot

The Eternal Cycle of Sacrifice
Reflections on Life, Death, and NourishmentIn the vast, intricate dance of existence, every being participates in a cycle of giving and receiving that transcends mere survival. This process, a profound expression of the universe’s inherent generosity, manifests as a continuous flow of sacrifice. This concept is not about the literal intention of flora and fauna but rather illustrates the…

give me a playful fox and her stoic swordswoman girlfriend forever traumatized by the calamity that took all of her loved ones (that later on dedicates herself to preventing it from happening ever again) and i'm in
#we don't know know much about baiheng so i'll just have to roll with playful fox but uhm 😭#ei creating the shogun puppet as a means of protecting inazuma in her absence +ensuring her nation remains in an eternal state of stagnation#thus protecting it from progressing 'too far' and drawing the gaze of the heavenly principles#vs jingliu losing faith in the hunt and looking for an alternative path to take that would finally punish the aeon who took everything from#her (yaoshi)#drawing upon nanook's gaze & doing whatever it was that got all records of her erased from xianzhou history...

been looking at some images today, time for my wildly uninformed opinion. the difference between celtic and nordic knotwork is Like So:
#thought of this in words then googled it and well. look at them. tell me i'm wrong.#nordic art prefers Beasts to people and you can find a beast or two in celtic art too. but like. by and large#like the OVERARCHING PRINCIPLES. like so!!!#tbh it's possible both had influences one way or the other#or at least like the celtic and islamic stuff came from the same principles. Divine Perfection.#i was always told celtic knots being endless symbolised eternity and therefore god. not sure if it's true but it wouldn't be surprising#and then on the other hand i can totally see people looking to viking age art for art nouveau bc it's all fairytale and romantic#and people love to romanticise the middle ages#but. i know literally nothing about art history. i am simply observing

i know this is somewhat of a 🤓 take and not targeting anyone specific here but it's always annoying when people talk about "bible fanfiction" or whatever. Like, fanfiction doesn't mean "any work derivative of another work" it refers to a specific social relationship that only exists within the context of modern capitalist ip law. "Fanfiction" cannot and does not exist prior to the existence of IP law- the division between "canon" and "fanworks" is ultimately one of legality, of copyright ownership. Dante's inferno is not "bible fanfiction" because the bible was written over a thousand years before the invention of copyright- the same principle applies to, say, the Arthurian mythos- the social relationship which created a literary cycle through multiple authors over multiple centuries is very alien to the modern copyright-dominated media landscape.
#hawk.txt#i do genuinely think the universalization of modern social dynamics is genuinely harmful to our understanding both of historical societies#as well as of our own- if we think of our modern concepts as eternal principles of human society and human nature we lose the ability#to actually critically examine and critique them

Everything in our universe, visible and invisible, is originally built from Divine Energy, expanding LOVE power. This manifested itself through two Cosmic Basic forces, two Cosmic laws. Both forces can be found in everything. Everything is essentially energy. Motherhood and Fatherhood. Giving birth and Creation. Expansion and Compaction.
