Milestone Monday - World Bee Day!

May 20th is World Bee Day! Proclaimed in 2017 by the United Nations, events on World Bee Day educate the public about the importance of bees and beekeeping, emphasizing their valuable role as pollinators and dwindling populations. The theme for World Bee Day 2024 is Bee engaged with youth which aims to engage young folks in beekeeping activities and advocacy efforts. The public is called to action today to set up a pollinator farm of diverse native plants, buy hive products like raw honey and beeswax, and leave water bowls outside for bee water fountains.  

In recognition of the day, we’re sharing All the Bees & All the Keys written by James Reaney (1926-2008) with illustrations by Rudy McToots and a musical score by John Beckwith (1927-2022). All the Bees & All the Keys was commissioned by the Junior Women’s Committee of the Toronto Symphony and first published in 1976 by Press Porcepic Ltd out of Ontario. The story was intended for narration with piano accompaniment.  

This book has it all; a bee bully, a twenty-four-year grudge, dueling silver and tin bands, prophetic dreams featuring a queen-bee entity, and anthropomorphic bees who sting musicians when they make a mistake. Embedded within the chaotic storyline, All the Bees & All the Keys stresses the idea of a symbiotic relationship with bees who will help us if we help them.

NPCs YOU’LL PROBABLY SEE MENTIONED ‘ROUND THESE PARTS

ROBERT “POPS” SULLIVAN. Luke, Bullet, Frankie, and Reggie's grandfather. City councilman in NYC; connections with mob members while he touts that he’s ‘tough on crime’; adopted Frankie and Bullet in their later teens; didn’t approve of his son Kelly’s marriage to Bullet's mother Florence, so he doesn’t approve of Bullet. Just used her for sympathy. Favors Frankie over Bullet ( most of the time ) and doesn't know about Luke and Reggie ( yet ).

JOHN SULLIVAN. Frankie's father and uncle to Bullet, Reggie, and Luke. Eldest son of Robert. Fuck up, but not as big as Kelly. Currently incarcerated in New York.

KELLY SULLIVAN. Father of Luke, Bullet, and Reggie. Only knows for certain about Bullet. General criminal, currently incarcerated in New York, but getting released soon. Asshole.

FLORENCE ( nee DARCY ) SULLIVAN. Mother of Bullet and estranged wife of Kelly. Con artist and thief. Currently incarcerated in New Mexico. Turned Kelly in to get immunity in an unrelated case.

RIVA DARCY. Maternal aunt of Bullet. Looks out for her when she's in town. Personal hero of the younger redhead. Hates the Sullivans. Tried to adopt Bullet when her sister was thrown in the clink until Robert got in her way.

MICHAEL “MIKEY” SULLIVAN. Younger brother of Frankie. Perished in an auto accident. Honestly was Frankie’s heart; they loved that kid. It’s difficult for Frankie to speak of Mikey now, but if they do, it’s all glowing.

DONNY WILSON. Grown ass married man with kids / Ranch hand. Had no business messing around with Bullet at the age she was when they did. Ran out of town when people began to suspect things. Bullet calls him her first love, but that ain't it.

LILAH BECKWITH. Bullet considers her her first girlfriend, though she was Frankie's at the time. Broke Bullet's heart and really just pissed Frankie off.

SARA JAKOB. The one who got away for Frankie. They have a tattoo of her name in a heart on their chest and they refuse to get it removed. Very, very sore subject.

The Legend of the Lilacs of Franktown

Ted Rundle photo In 1807, or so the story goes, a woman boarded a boat in Scotland and sailed across the sea to a new life in a land barely known as Upper Canada. When she arrived in an Ottawa Valley settlement now called Franktown, she was carrying a special secret in her purse and what she did with it created a natural wonder and the only thing Franktown is known for almost 200 years later.

Sarony photograph #19. A NEW CHARACTER IN THE WILDE STORY ���by John Cooper and Erik Ryding— Sarony photograph #19 must have been a favorite of Wilde’s as it is almost certainly the one he was referring to when, in March 1882, he wrote to his tour promoter, Richard D’Oyly Carte, to suggest that a lithograph of himself would help business. He said: “The photograph of me with head looking over my…

[lmchaptertitlebracket]

also curious: who is this mysterious Walton????? I think I’ve never come across that translation! Do you know where I can find a copy? 👁️

Ah yes, perhaps I should've clarified because it's more obscure! I'm still collecting information about it, but Walton is William Walton one of the four translators in an 1890s edition made for a Collected Works.

From what I've been able to find, the earliest printing of this translation's from an 1892 edition of Hugo's works; links to this printing were gathered up by @melannen here. It was also reprinted c. 1894 in a 28-volume set of all Hugo's novels, a couple of which are available on the Internet Archive (my beloved) or Google Books.

The four translators were split up over five volumes; William Walton translated Fantine, J. C. Beckwith translated Cosette, Jules Gray translated Marius and Jean Valjean, and Edouard Jolivet translated Plumet/Saint-Denis.

I'm still researching this translation, because it doesn't seem to be widely-known. All I can really tell you about them is that neither William Walton and J.C. Beckwith should be confused with the composers for the organ of the same name (seriously, what an odd coinkydink). I've also found a portrait of a J. C. Beckwith (this one a John Carroll), by Sargent, and it's not a super common name so there's a possibility it's him, but also this J. C. Beckwith appears to have been an artist and there's no solid evidence of it being the same J. C. Beckwith other than the name and being alive in this time period.

In addition to the scans Melannen linked above, here are some more I could find:

The Runt - Billy the Kid

Summary: The runt is the smallest and has the least advantage in a group - commonly used when talking about a litter. And that is what Lauren is in the Seven Rivers gang:

The runt.

(PLATONIC! Billy the Kid x OC)

Warnings for this series: parental death, child abandonment, grief of a parent slight verbal abuse, physical abuse, mentions of sex, guns, violence, misogyny, use of a homophobic slur, complex feelings, drinking, underage drinking, smoking, drug usage.

THIS IS ALSO CROSS-POSTED ON MY WATTPAD: PhantomWritez2

Chapter One

Laurie had somehow convinced Jesse to let her go on a little cattle run with the rest of the guys. She was almost never allowed to go on those things because she was ‘too young’ or ‘too small’ or ‘too weak.’

Laurie, also known as Lauren (if you were to call her by her full name), was what the Seven Rivers gang called the runt of the litter.

The runt of the litter.

That was what Laurie was.

The smallest of the group, and often seen as the weakest even though she could do anything they could do, maybe even better than they could. And she hated being seen as some little fawn that needed to be coddled and looked after. 

The group galloped to the entrance of the ranch where Jesse dismounted his horse and was greeted by his girlfriend whom Laurie couldn’t really be bothered remembering the name of. And with that girlfriend, Barbara, if Laurie remembered correctly, stood the man the group had brought back to the ranch a few weeks ago.

Jesse said something about his name being Billy.

The 13-year-old tilted her head as she observed the strange guy. He looked a lot better than the last time she saw him. The last time she had seen him, he was lying on Artax’s back like a sack of potatoes and looking like he was about ready to kill himself. 

“Fellas, this here… is a very old friend of mine, Kid Antrim,” Jesse introduced, “Billy, Bob Olinger, John Beckwith, the runt back there is Lauren Casely.”

“Good to meet you,” Billy said, looking at the guys before his eyes fell on the little red-head girl. He could definitely see why Jesse referred to her as ‘the runt.’ You could tell right away she was the smallest and the youngest out of all of the guys here. Laurie sighed at the use of her full name, she didn’t really like it but she knew there wasn’t too much she could do to get the gang leader to stop calling her that.

She was just the runt of the litter, after all.

And she should be grateful Jesse didn’t shoot her on the spot when he found her, shouldn’t she?

Later that night, while all the guys sat around the table inside Jesse’s house, getting drunk or smoking tobacco. Or both. Laurie sat outside on the front porch, picking apart a twig she had found quietly. She never really felt like she truly belonged with the Seven Rivers gang, she was only here in the first place because Jesse caught her stealing supplies from his barn and decided to just take her under his wing instead of shooting her on the spot. But she was barely even acknowledged by him anyways, she was just another mouth to feed and body to bury to him. 

Her head perked up when someone sat beside her, she looked over to see Billy, nodding in acknowledgement before going back to tearing apart the twig in her hands. That was how the two sat for a good few minutes, sitting in the dark in silence until Billy spoke up.

“Lauren, correct?,” he inquired, watching the younger girl.

“Laurie,” Laurie replied, “I don’t like being called Lauren.”

The outlaw nodded, making a mental note about the fact that this kid didn’t like being called by her full name.

“So how’d you get here, running with a gang?,” Billy questioned, looking over at the young teenager next to him. “You don’t look much older than 12.”

“I’m 13,” the teen corrected, throwing her stick to the side. “Jesse caught me stealing from his barn when I was 10. Instead of shooting me on the spot he decided to spare me and just have me living under his care for some reason.”

Billy nodded, looking up at the full moon in the dark night sky. It had been a while since he had actually taken the time to appreciate the small things, like how bright the moon looked and how pretty the stars in the sky were. 

“Where’re your parents?,” the outlaw suddenly asked and Laurie sighed.

“Gone. My dad was killed, don’t know what happened to my ma, I just woke up one day and she had just disappeared, never heard from her since,” Laurie explained, clearly not really in the mood to talk but she knew that it would be rude not to answer Billy’s questions.

ⅠⅠⅠⅠ

The next morning Lauri found herself doing yard work while the other gang members worked on training new horses. Billy sat on the fence, talking with Jesse and Barbara while watching Jesse lunge one of the new horses. Laurie picked up a bag of some horse feed, tossing it into a wheelbarrow, ever so slightly eavesdropping on the conversation a few feet away from her. Jesse was talking about how the gang was thinking of going out to El Paso, and Laurie immediately knew she would probably get left out of that trip because she was too young or too weak, just like she always did.

The only reason she went on that trip that they returned from yesterday was because Jesse was “feeling nice.” 

“Hey, why do you call that one over there ‘runt’?,” Billy questioned as he looked over to where Laurie was working and then back at Jesse.

“Because that’s what she is, really,” Jesse answered, continuing his work with his horse. “She’s the smallest out of all of us, probably the weakest as well. Sounds like runt material to me, don’t it?”

Laurie rolled her eyes with a quiet sigh, she hated that nickname. Runt – the smallest and more often than not in a group, specifically used when you’re talking about dogs and other animals. But according to Jesse, it can be used on people too – given the correct circumstances, of course. And here’s the funny part, no matter how much Laurie disliked the taunting, the names and the constant reminder about the fact she would be nothing without him – Laurie always found herself trying to seek out Jesse’s approval one way or another.

That’s the beauty of Laurie’s life.

The red-headed teenager watched as Billy got up and followed Barbara down into a slightly wooded area where a few horses stood loosely tied by the mangers and water troughs. She rolled her eyes and continued working, Laurie never understood romance nor did she ever experience it or want to experience it. She didn’t really ever have those urges. 

After a few minutes Billy came back from the woods and approached her, Laurie slowed her movements for a moment. Trying to figure out why the new member was going to attempt to talk to her. 

“You need help with those?,” Billy asked, gesturing to the few bags of feed that still needed to be hauled into the wheelbarrow and brought into the stables. Laurie shrugged, picking up another bag and almost dropping it. Why did these things need to be so heavy?

“If you want to help, you can,” the child replied, putting the bag into the barrow with a small but tired sigh. Billy felt his face soften a bit when he noticed how tired the kid in front of him was. So he did what he believed was right and picked up the last few bags with ease and hauled them into the wheelbarrow. 

Laurie would be lying if she said that she wasn’t shocked that Billy helped her, because she wasn’t expecting him to actually do anything to make her life easier. In fact, he had been the first person in three years to actually help her with any of the chores she had been assigned. She stood there for a moment, glancing at the feed in the wheelbarrow before her blue eyes met his and she gave him a small smile.

“Thanks,” was all she said before pushing the wheelbarrow in the direction of the barn, not with ease though. She strained her muscles as she pushed the heavy supplies towards the barn, taking deep breaths as she did so. 

Billy watched Laurie and he couldn’t help but wonder why Jesse was having this child do this kind of work without at least a little bit of help, especially considering the fact she was a little bit small and naturally scrawny for her age. 

Why was there child labour going on at this ranch?

Name: Simon Beckwith Clan: Toreador Generation: 11th Apparent Age: 30~ Actual Age: 250~

Time heals all wounds as they say, and Simon has around 250 years worth under his belt. Born in Britain, Simon Beckwith often thinks of his father’s smile before he was sent to fight in the Revolutionary War, the last he would ever see of him. He and his brother Johnwere raised by their mother, who taught him to cook as he grew to manage the kitchen of the family tavern. His loving home would soon be shattered as he and his brother were turned by an unknown guest, John’s ensuing frenzy resulting in their death of their mother, forcing Simon to put a final end to his rampage.

After fleeing the country, he would eventually embark on a quest to visit the culinary capitals of the world to learn to cook for patrons both human and vampiric. He would come to Columbus in the 50s, seeing it as a sleepy city where his inability to age could go unnoticed while still working within a vibrant culinary scene. In his professional life he now works as a star chef at Marcellas, while in his spare time he seeks to create more appetizing and humane ways to consume blood.

He tends to avoid interacting with the larger conflicts and politics of the vampire world, yet his social oddities seem to attract a variety of interesting characters to him. Perhaps it is an opening to kinship which will help him realize his dream of revisiting that taste of home from centuries ago.

Olivia Little at MMFA:

Last month, pastor Micah Beckwith secured Indiana’s GOP lieutenant governor nomination in an unexpected upset against gubernatorial candidate Mike Braun’s pick for running mate. Beckwith is a right-wing podcaster, promoter of Christian nationalism, and suburban pastor at an Indianapolis-area church affiliated with the Pentecostal network Assemblies of God. The network describes same-sex marriage as “symptomatic of a broader spiritual disorder that threatens the family, the government, and the church" and discourages "divorce by all lawful means and teaching.” Beckwith has spent years blasting his extreme positions to the world on his podcast Jesus, Sex and Politics, as well as in Facebook livestreams. In this content, Beckwith has claimed that God was behind the January 6 insurrection and Trump’s rise to power, dabbled in numerology, and talked at length about his “prophetic calling."

Beckwith has been trying to immerse himself in the right-wing culture war for years

In 2021, Beckwith bragged on Facebook about giving out hundreds of religious exemptions for the COVID-19 vaccine. In May 2022, Beckwith’s church hosted a Turning Point USA Faith event with founder and right-wing troll Charlie Kirk, which was posted on The Charlie Kirk Show. During the show with Beckwith, Kirk spouted conspiracy theories about the World Economic Forum, fearmongered about “globalists trying to squeeze the American way of life,” and told audience members that “college is a scam for most young people.”  Earlier this year, Beckwith resigned from his local public library board of directors. He spent his time on the board championing a controversial book removal policy that author and Indiana resident John Green later criticized after his book The Fault in Our Stars was removed from the young adult section.

Indiana Lt. Gov nominee Micah Beckwith (R) has been a promoter of Christian Nationalism, along with other far-right conspiracy theories.

TODAY’S FROZEN MOMENT -

60th Anniversary - June 28th, 1963 - This was the cover of LIFE Magazine, and was arguably their most powerful cover ever. Here was a gut-wrenching photo of Myrlie Evers, the widow of slain civill rights leader Medgar Evers, comforting their weeping son Darrell at the funeral. This photo and its being placed on the cover of the nation’s then-most prominent media location - the cover of LIFE, added power to the growing outrage which was growing throughout the nation. Evers' martyrdom, and this image sitting on coffee tables all over America, helped compel Congress to move on a comprehensive civil rights bill. The bill, pushed in this moment by President Kennedy, would be signed into law the following year, by President Johnson - Kennedy not living to see that moment. Though Evers’ murderer, Byron De La Beckwith, was twice tried, he was acquitted with hung juries. Myrlie Evers fought endlessly to keep her husband’s murder case active, writing a book that opened with the line: Somewhere in Mississippi lives the man who murdered my husband.”

Three decades alter, her persistence paid off when the case got reopened and Beckwith was found guilty of first-degree murder. Medgar Evers’ legacy is about the right to vote, and the push to register voters, the constant push to keep the right to vote protected, and to not let the progress made slip away. As far as America has progressed, there are still forces that see the stoking of, and pandering to, the worst side of some Americans, makes for moneymaking ratings on rightwing media networks, and for votes for Republicans. This is sadly a constant struggle that has to be, also constantly, waged. Hopefully, there is a sense of that Myrlie Evers persistence where this fight is concerned.
