Dampflokomotive Yvonne von 1893 auf dem Festival Vapeur der 3-Täler Dampfeisenbahn. Leider am ersten Tag zum Teil mit sehr wechselhaften Wetter, was bei der offenen Bauart dieser hübschen Lok etwas ungemütlich ist. Aber die beiden Herren auf der Lok ließen sich nicht entmutigen und waren bester Laune. So durfte ich auch einmal auf diese wunderschöne Lokomotive, die früher Ihre Arbeit bei einer Mine in Liege verrichtet hat.

Steam locomotive Yvonne from 1893 at the Festival Vapeur of the 3-Valleys Steam Railway. Unfortunately, on the first day, the weather was partly very changeable, which is somewhat uncomfortable with the open design of this pretty locomotive. But the two gentlemen on the look were not discouraged and were in the best of moods. So I was allowed to step on this beautiful locomotive, which used to work at a mine in Liege.

liège // belgium

liège is littered with modern buildings, some more conspicuous than others, and there is always art on buildings to discover, even if it is often hidden behind parked cars or in side streets.

liège ist gespickt mit bauwerken der moderne, mal auffälligeren und mal unaufälligeren. auch kunst am bau gibt es immer wieder zu entdecken, auch wenn sie oft hinter parkenden autos oder in seitenstraßen versteckt ist.

querida vienna,

sinto muito por passar semanas sem escrever, já tentei começar esta carta diversas vezes , mas as coisas estão terríveis novamente, receio dizer. tudo deixado no meu quarto foram a mesa de estudos e uma cadeira. colchões, poltronas, foram levados e até mesmo meu closet está trancado . não tenho permissão para dormir, não posso comer muito caso fique sonolento , é um ciclo vicioso e seria engraçado se não me causasse tanta dor. espero que não tenha feito você odiar meus pais, eu não os odeio. o plano é o plano, eu tento entender ; mas é realmente tão difícil tentar ser perfeito.

mas o verão está prestes a começar e logo estarei no acampamento, talvez passe todos os meus dias dormindo e não treine nem um pouco. complicado, não acha? vou estar entediado no segundo dia , quem sabe , dure até o terceiro, mas então voltarei para a arena. acho que está no meu sangue, essa luta .

ah, e boas noticias ! um olheiro vem nos ver em alguns dias, pode ser meu ingresso para o meu esporte, e minha saída dessa casa. novamente, não os odeio - ou estou tentando meu melhor não odiar. minha mãe sempre foi assim, dizem que ela aprendeu com o pai , sempre ter que cuidar de tudo, aparentemente meu avô era incapaz de tomar as próprias decisões, me pergunto se ela simplesmente assume que sou igual. e meu pai … bem, ele ao menos diz que sente muito. mas ainda tranca a porta do quarto, e não volta para checar se estou vivo. acho que quebra seu coração, no entanto e de uma forma egoísta, fico feliz. será que sou uma pessoa ruim ?

não sei quando vou poder escrever de novo, mas espero que em breve. até lá, vou imaginar que você esteja passando todos os seus dias no sol, cercada pelas pessoas que te amam, e saiba que mesmo de longe, eu sou uma delas. não posso te abraçar ou segurar sua mão, mas mando meu coração com essa carta, cuide bem dele.

com amor, liége.

Who do you think would actually win in the hypothetical cruel+unusual sword duel that Desmoulins wrote about in his notes on Saint-Just's report ("Qu'est-ce autre chose que le duel de l'empereur Commode, qui armé d'une excellente lame, forçait son ennemi à se battre avec un simple fleuret garni de liége!",etc)? The answer may seem obvious,but it's important to remember that Desmoulins mightve had lightning abilities or something of the like.

the easy answer is , as you say , saint - just But you ' re here for Serious Academic Analysis

so

first things first i found the quote in full ; i might be blind but i can ' t find a date so i ' m assuming it ' s around february - april 1794 , disregarding the fact this was written and not actually a challenge we can cross out february since le vieux cordelier 07 was penned mid march i do believe & he mentions it . but then i think march gets crossed out due to the fact that . well . he ' s talking about dying in a few hours

so this guy is

challenging a lad

who Just came back from The War

to Sword Duel Him

mere Hours before his execution

and tbh that is sucha desmoulins thing to do . Anyways so that being said he ' s gotta know he ' s cooked But what if he had some weird bullshit up his sleeve ??? i get where you ' re going with lightning but i ' m thinking more like . Rabies . or fish . maybe he ' s got some gympie gympie in there somewhere . if he had lightning abilities it would be the thunderbolt of zeus mythic from fortnite

being The Leaf Boy i feel like he ' d go for the gympie gympie ; saint - just shows up to the dueling location having taken it seriously only to see desmoulins armed with nothing but A Bush . also maybe a wooden sword if he ' s lucky but who gaf about that

i think he ' d just hit him repeatedly with the gympie gympie until saint - just keeled over in pain only to look up at desmoulins and see a fish flying towards him . maybe the fish has rabies idk . if it did desmoulins definitely gave it to it

saint - just would probably try to get a few strikes in but the sheer ??? of this guy would throw him off too much to get any good hits

The AM: December 23, 2024

No Christmas tunes on this week's AM—although there is one sad Christmas Eve song in the 8:30 Throwback. No, it's just an average mid-winter episode of The AM, gradually waking up from gently drifting synths and ambient jazz through a psych-pop second hour to a trip-hop-laced conclusion.

Ugh, dreams. Like bad acid trips for the subconscious.

Last night's escapade: a mind-numbing online game. GeoGuesser for the chronically bored. Country du jour: Belgium. Because, why not? Circle five cities. Easy. Except my brain's a geography black hole.

Brussels, Bruges... Liége (maybe). That's when things go pear-shaped.

Suddenly, I'm in some retro hellhole – a 1997 computer lab. Arborite desks, reeking of stale pencil shavings. Substitute teachers drifting around, clutching their security blankets (tattered novels, lukewarm coffee).

What. The. Actual. Fuck.

No logical explanation, just me, dropped into Geography 101. Never taken the class. Never will. Too lazy, too apathetic.

Dream self: what's wrong with you?

Wake-up call. Thank fuck.
