Carlos Santana may have been a part of an intriguing set of records as we have noticed in our discussions on his intriguing career. However, most of his 80's sucked. True, this might be a terrible thing to say about the works of his back then, since his peers from the 60's suffered the similar issues in the same period. Yes, something didn't work, though you have to admit – all of them did tried their best. Back to Santana – they released Freedom, which serves as one of the attempts to modulate their sounds for the period that had no clue what to do with them. While they didn't go full 80's Chicago on the disc, you do notice they planned to travel this road, yet they changed their approach at one point. Still, this only made the disc as a document of a group in search of an identity.

'Andrew Scott, mother Nora has passed away after a sudden illness just before Mother's Day.

The sad news was shared by the family, stating that Nora died peacefully surrounded by her loved ones at St Vincent's Hospital in Dublin on March 7th.

The obituary read: "It is with our deepest sorrow that we inform you of the passing of Nora Scott (nee Boyle), beloved wife of Jim, mother of Sarah, Andrew and Hannah."

"Scott, Sandymount, Dublin, formerly Omagh Co. Tyrone, March 7th 2024 peacefully surrounded by her loving family and best friend Anne, in St Vincent's Hospital following a sudden illness. Nora will be deeply missed by her beloved husband Jim, her loving children Sarah, Andrew and Hannah."

Andrew has not yet made any public comments about his mum's passing. Nora had previously shared a heartwarming story about receiving a bouquet of roses from actor Anthony Hopkins six years ago when she told him she was ill. She met him on the set of King Lear, where Andrew was playing Edgar, reports the Irish Mirror.

Recalling the sweet gesture on RTE, she said: "There was probably more than three dozen red roses and attached to them was a little card from Anthony saying 'Be well, sending hugs', and all sorts of things."

"I was thrilled to get such a gift and for the kind thought that promoted it. Now I have recovered, I can enjoy these exquisite roses that grace our hall. It was such a beautiful gift."

Just two months ago, Andrew and his All of Us Strangers co-star Paul Mescal said they didn't really want their parents to watch the movie.

In the film, we see Mescal and Scott's characters getting very close, and both actors said it would be super awkward to watch with their families because of the steamy scenes. "I don't want to be there when my parents watch it! " Andrew shared with TV star Graham Norton.

Andrew had some deep thoughts about the film, saying: "I think for so many people, particularly queer people, you can feel like a stranger in your own family. Even if they haven't directly rejected you, you just feel slightly different... [But] discomfort within a family and love within a family can coexist. It's pretty common."'

"Self-censorship was a practical necessity, but it was also part of the process of self-discovery, which makes it doubly unreasonable to accuse writers like Proust or James of failing to support the cause. Far more damage was done by the mutilations and incinerations of embarrassed readers. A diarist might turn his closet into a time-machine, but when it arrived in the future heirs and editors would be waiting to barricade the doors.

Some crude attempts at censorship are easily reversed - hims replaced with hers, and so on - but a great deal of the unread corpus was destroyed forever. Edmund Gosse and the librarian of the London Library organized Symond's papers into a pile in the library garden and set fire to them. Richard Burton's extensive research notes on 'pederasty' were probably destroyed by his widow. Minnie Benson's son Arthur left behind 'a packet of letters of very dangerous stuff' and another packet 'that had to be burned unopened', according to his brother Fred. Edward Lear's papers seem to have been selectively destroyed after his death by the man for whom Lear had harboured a 'twarted, frustrated, impossible love'.

To judge by the large number of known destructions (most presumably went unrecorded), at any moment in the 19th century someone, somewhere, was burning the papers of a homosexual relative. People who were almost certainly homosexual, like Thomas Gray or Thomas Lovell Beddoes, can now have no firm place in the record, especially since the standard of proof demanded of biographers is far stricter for homosexual than for heterosexual subjects. It is almost as if the surviving testimonies to forbidden love were written 2000 years rather than four or five generations ago. Ancient Greek literature and 19th-century confessional gay literature probably survive in approximately the same proportions."

From: 'Strangers. Homosexual love in the nineteenth century', by Graham Robb

more terror daemon AU sketches i forgot to post until this second!! (also on twt here xo) our dear harry goodsir and his sweet cordelia, the little brown bat (yes, named after King Lear). she is very small and skittish and shy but will absolutely correct you if you're wrong. this can be socially uncomfortable because she is right like 95% of the time and Not polite about it

further bat doodle and MORE THOUGHTS under the cut

SOMEONE IS WRONG ON THE INTERNET HARRY. SOMEONE IS GOING ONLINE AND TELLING LIES

i love her so much. she is Annoying but extremely sweet and precious and small and quiet. she gets along very well with other daemons typically, and has wonderful bedside manner; she's VERY affectionate and will ride around on harry's head all day if allowed. she gets very sad when ppl are like "ew a bat" tho. she's friendly and sociable! it's hardly her fault people have strange ideas about the species she settled!

also people tend to forget that she's extremely quick and agile in the air, because she tends to scuttle about on the desk when people are around, or hang off of harry's glasses for a lark.

she will ride around on other daemons she gets along with, too, when she gets the chance -- she really likes graham gore's daemon (a dog??) and will cling onto her head and have a chat and a cuddle like that. she will Not approach the ship cats or Neptune due to being tiny and food-shaped and also they are Very Big. and neptune is so LOUD.

anyway. i love her. she is Small

33 and 40 for the ask game :) if no snacks today, tell me about your favorite snacks!

33- the last adventure you’ve been on?

I went to NYC in May to see Kenneth Branagh in King Lear!

40- did you have any snacks today?

Today was a weird eating day for me since I’m still not back at work technically lol, so …. Kind of? I had a sleeve of graham crackers earlier. I’m about to eat some graham crackers w/ peanut butter now, which is one of my fave snacks — I also like popcorn, yogurt w/ berries or some type of candy, apples, and tbh those Fiber One Brownies. I really liked processed food snacks but they’re pricy lmao

[emilyofmindelan]

hot take to make all the (imaginary) theatre critics mad: Graham Abbey and Maeve Beaty were frankly more compelling in Much Ado About Nothing than Paul Gross was in King Lear this year at the Stratford Festival. the main tragedy this year (lear) did not hold a candle to Hamlet last year. however Richard II may redeem this tomorrow. we’ll see.

Watts, Kim Wilde, Owen Wilson, and the Great American singer-songwriter Johnny Mercer.

Among his many hit songs are now-standards such as “Autumn Leaves” and “Moon River”—all told he wrote lyrics for 1500 published songs. Besides winning many awards, he co-founded Capitol Records, the first “indie label” of the 20th Century not dependent on the film industry or other corporate interests. Mercer was one of those fabled “napkin writers,” meaning he’d grab any scrap of paper handy, throw down lyrics, then have a demo ready within hours. “Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive” was inspired by a sermon he heard on the radio. Normally he’d pitch the song to other singers but it was perfect for his voice. His recording was a Top 10 hit and has been used in several films. Here’s my take—I’ve grown fond of it and it’s a touchstone of my “assisted living home set.”

'By his own admission, awards season has been bittersweet for Andrew Scott.

Currently basking in a flurry of positive reviews for his starring role in a new Netflix adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's The Talented Mr. Ripley, Scott recently collected the Critics’ Circle Theatre award for his remarkable performance in a contemporary rendering of Chekhov masterpiece Vanya.

But the occasion was tinged with sadness for the Irish star, 47, whose devoted mother Nora passed away with a 'sudden illness' in March - shortly before Mother's Day.

And Scott - who dedicated the award to her memory by telling audience members “she was the source of practically every joyful thing in my life” - admits he felt compelled to immerse himself in work following her recent passing.

'Well, you know, you have to — life goes on, you manage it day by day,' he told the Sunday Times.

'It’s very recent, but I certainly can say that so much of it is surprising and unique, and there is so much that I will be able to speak about at some point.'

A devoted follower of fashion away from screen and stage, Scott admits his love of clothes came from his mother and her passion for the arts.

'My mother was an art teacher, she was obsessed with all sorts of design,' he recalled. 'She loved jewellery and jewellery design.

'Anything that is visual, tactile, painting, drawing, is a big passion of mine, so I have tremendous respect for the creativity of designers.'

Despite the tragedy, Scott has attempted to maintain a positive attitude towards both his personal and professional life.

'I feel like, as a person, I am quite near my emotions,' he said. 'I cry easily and I laugh easily, and there is nothing more pleasurable to me than laughing.'

Nora's death was confirmed in a statement on March 9, with family members adding that she passed away on Thursday March 7 surrounded by her family at St Vincent's Hospital in Dublin.

An obituary read: 'It is with our deepest sorrow that we inform you of the passing of Nora Scott (née Boyle), beloved wife of Jim, mother of Sarah, Andrew and Hannah.

'Scott, Sandymount, Dublin, formerly Omagh Co. Tyrone, March 7th 2024 peacefully surrounded by her loving family and best friend Anne, in St Vincent's Hospital following a sudden illness.

'Nora will be deeply missed by her beloved husband Jim, her loving children Sarah, Andrew and Hannah.'

In 2018, Nora revealed Anthony Hopkins sent her 'more than three dozen red roses,' after finding out she was ill when speaking to Scott on the set of King Lear.

Hopkins, 86, starred in the BBC's Shakespeare adaptation as an ‘English Stalin’ with Scott playing Edgar - who becomes Lear’s secret protector.

She told RTE’s Ryan Tubridy at the time: 'There was probably more than three dozen red roses and attached to them was a little card from Anthony saying "Be well, sending hugs", and all sorts of things.'

'I was thrilled to get such a gift and for the kind thought that promoted it.

'Now I have recovered, I can enjoy these exquisite roses that grace our hall. It was such a beautiful gift.'

In January, Scott and his co-star Paul Mescal admitted they weren't too keen on their family members watching their new film, gay drama All Of Us Strangers.

The movie stars Scott as a screenwriter drawn back to his childhood home who enters into a relationship with a mysterious neighbour, played by Mescal, 27.

The film features several intimate scenes between the actors which the pair discussed during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show.

Asked if their families had seen the flick yet, Mescal said: 'With the Irish premiere, trying to allocate tickets to all the aunties and uncles is a tricky business.

'They have seen my bum before but there is a little more going on in this movie I would say!'

Scott added: 'I don't want to be there when my parents watch it!''

COLD TURKEY United Artists 1971

Fantastic movie comedy -- easily one of the best satires of American life ever put on film. Norman Lear wrote and directed this gem just before moving on to "All In The Family". "Cold Turkey" and "All In The Family" are his two greatest creations. It begins with the script. It's funny from beginning to end. The script has clever dialogue, inventive ideas and an eye for detail.

The cast includes many all-time favorites, including Dick Van Dyke, Bob Newhart, Tom Poston, Barnard Hughes, Sudie Bond, Ted Knight, Gloria LeRoy, Vincent Gardenia, Pippa Scott, Peggy Rea, Paul Benedict, Edward Everett Horton, M. Emmett Walsh, Barbara Cason, Graham Jarvis, Jean Stapleton and show-stopper Judith Lowry. You'll see a lot of people you recognize from other movies and sitcoms of the 1970s, including many who turned up on "All In The Family" and other Lear shows. "Cold Turkey" is also the best movie showcase for possibly the greatest comedy team of all time, Bob & Ray. They are brilliant, satirizing newscasters of the time, like Walter Cronkite, David Brinkley, Paul Harvey, and Hugh Downs. Randy Newman's soundtrack is terrific.

And it helps that the movie, which is set in a small Iowa town, was actually filmed in a small Iowa town, rather than some Hollywood backlot. It gives the movie a feeling of authenticity.

The Golden Thirteen were the thirteen enlisted men who became the first African American commissioned and warrant officers in the Navy.

The Navy had enlisted African Americans for general service, but they were barred from joining (1919-32). From 1893 onwards, African Americans could only join the Navy’s Messman’s and Steward’s branches, which not only segregated African Americans from the rest of the Navy community but precluded them from becoming commissioned officers.

In June 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the executive order (8802) prohibiting ethnic and racial discrimination by federal agencies or contractors involved in the defense industry. In April 1942, the Navy allowed African American men into the general service ratings for the first time. In January 1944, the Navy began an officer training course for 16 African-American enlisted men at Camp Robert Smalls, Recruit Training Center Great Lakes.

The normal training period of 16 weeks was reduced to 8 weeks for the Black cadets. The cadets covered up the windows of their barracks and studied all night. The entire group passed with high marks. Disbelief in the chain of command that an all-Black cadet class could achieve higher scores than an all-white one meant that the Black sailors had to suffer the indignity of retaking their tests. All 16 passed; the class average at graduation was 3.89.

Only twelve were commissioned in March 1944: Jesse Walter Arbor, Phillip George Barnes, Samuel Edward Barnes, Dalton Louis Baugh Sr., George Clinton Cooper, Reginald Ernest Goodwin, James Edward Hair, Graham Edward Martin, Dennis Denmark Nelson, John Walter Reagan, Frank Ellis Sublett, and William S. White were commissioned as Ensigns; Charles Byrd Lear was appointed as a Warrant Officer. Augustus Alves, J.B. Pinkney, and Lewis “Mummy” Williams passed the exam but were not given commissions.

The first class of Black officers were assigned to command shore logistics units, small tug and tender ships, and training African American enlisted. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
