am i the only one thinking about an Umbrella Academy x Bat-family cross over? no cause i think it could work, like imagine, either each family member from the Bat-fam filling out a role from the Hargreeves family OR the Bat-fam get thrown into the-end-of-the-world-apocalypse type shit just like the Umbrella academy...

theres one sure fire thing abt this whole crossover universe, Jason would be the Diego of the universe. Deigo would be our Jason.

Diego=Jason.

like, it just makes sense bruhh

— introduction !

masterlist !

Hi, my name is sara. I am most likely going to write [x reader] and imagines. So I would like for you to send request but I’m not sure if I’m doing this right 😭

Fandoms I’m in:

Harry Potter - on the fourth book

Percy Jackson - have not read the books

maze runner - have not read the books

YouTubers

So I clearly have not read the books yet, that mean I’m going to rely on reading fictions, TikTok and interviews! And for Harry Potter I haven’t got the motivation to read the rest of the goblet of fire (I bought tofp too but I want to read them in order) so feel free to spoil them! Thank You!

“Lo preocupante no es la perversidad de los malvados sino la indiferencia de los buenos”

- Martin Luther King

A DEFINITIVE but nonexhaustive list of theologians/Christian thinkers and associated brat status

Athanasius - literally impossible to imagine Christianity without his contributions, unquestionably brat

Augustine - smarter than all hell, the confessions is essential reading, his corpus is a succinct compendium of theological orthodoxy, you know he's brat

Anselm of Canterbury - satisfaction theory is actually more plausible to me than penal substitution, the ontological argument is pure lunacy but is the kind of magical thinking that I'm sad to see disappear once people started systematizing "logic" and "reason" after the enlightenment. Brat.

Thomas Aquinas - I'm kind of more inclined to platonism than aristotlianism but he's brat for this excerpt of the summa alone: “If some are occasionally begotten from demons, it is not from the seed of such demons, nor from their assumed bodies, but from the seed of men taken for the purpose; as when the demon assumes first the form of a woman, and afterward of a man.” In this case, the offspring would be fully human, “so that the person born is not the child of a demon but of a man” (ST I:51:3 ad 6)." Like c'mon that's so funny but also probably saved some childrens' lives if their parents didn't want to 'fess up to having an affair.

Thomas Á Kempis - I wish I could cultivate the humility of spirit he writes about in The Imitation of Christ! This guy knows what's up! Brat!

Martin Luther - Do you know how antisemitic you have to be in order to be remembered as antisemitic even if graded on a curve relative to his cultural context? Even his principled refusal to lean into double predestination despite it's logical coherence & consubstantiative view of the sacrament of the Eucharist won't save him from being pronounced decidedly un-brat.

John Calvin - way better than his devotees, more legitimate human compassionate distress at double predestination than the vastly inferior ulrich zwingli - brat.

Ulrich Zwingli - goes without saying - un-brat.

John Woolman - went hard in the paint to fight the transatlantic slave trade his whole life. Y'all could only DREAM of walking in humble submission before God in service of your fellow man like this. Brat.

Friedrich Schleiermacher - oh so Christianity is all about absolute dependence? That's what it is? Conjuring up feelings of absolute dependence? Get real! Not brat.

Soren Kierkegaard - Absolutely goated. Love to read a guy excoriating Christian nationalism. He's so brat for that.

Karl Barth - this page is called the Church Blogmatics so you already know what I'm thinking on this one. His doctrine of election makes me able to sleep at night and his understanding of theology as a living, breathing science makes me want to engage with it. Brat.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. - the absolute height of liberal theology and redeems it as something potentially profitable imo - brat.

Read Sir Thomas More calling Martin Luther “that great arsehole vomited up by Satan” and tell me again that social media is “destroying civility and manners in human discourse” 😁

[bison-appreciation-club]

i'm not entirely sure what's the best way to phrase this, but it really annoys me when people say things like 'well, this person lived two hundred years ago, they didn't know what they were doing was wrong'. because it's not true!!! i mean, yes, perhaps certain things were more normalised two hundred years ago, but people still knew they were wrong.

but it's also annoying when people expect people in the past to use the terminology and language to refer to minorities that people use today. sorry, but people who lived three hundred years ago will talk like people who lived three hundred years ago. and sometimes that means that they say things that are not suitable now. historical context is always important. it provides a reason for why people acted the way they did, but it is never an excuse

Did I think the gloves were off in this trial before? I was wrong.

Luther Martin: Has not this Court already declared, that the president has no more power here, than any other man? If this be law, for which gentlemen now contend, God forbid that I should remain a citizen of the United States! And is Mr. Jefferson to be a Judge of the relevancy of evidence, in a prosecution in which he has taken so active a part against the accused? Mr. Jefferson, Sir, is a man of no great legal knowledge. He was of no celebrity as a lawyer before the revolution, and he has since been so much engaged in political pursuits, that he has had time enough to unlearn the little law he ever knew.

Mr. Hay. The only end of this conversation is to abuse Mr. Jefferson.

Luther Martin. Sir, we shall so use Mr. Jefferson, as not to abuse him. Remember that the life and liberty of Colonel Burr are shown to be no longer dependent on Virginians; and therefore I am freed from any restraint, in declaring what I think.

Tampa Museum of Art’s current exhibition, Frontiers of Impressionism: Paintings from the Worcester Art Museum, features paintings by American and European impressionists and is a lovely reminder of the extraordinary works these artists created during this time period. The enduring popularity of the impressionists throughout the years makes sense when walking among these paintings. The use of color and brush work, as well as the details and beauty of the subject matter (not to mention the wealth and comfort often depicted)- make the viewer feel like they are being transported through time to the artist’s idyllic world.

From the museum-

In 2024, the term “impressionism” celebrates its 150th anniversary. Such a significant occasion inspires reflection on the profound impact that a relatively small group of artists in Paris made by positing a new mode of painting: one that favored painting outdoors over in a studio, immediacy over planning, the everyday over the grand, and the fleeting over the eternal. In doing so, the impressionists upended centuries of traditions in European art. This exhibition explores the radical impulses behind impressionism and its seemingly endless adaptability, as artists from around the world came to Paris to study and returned to their homelands, assimilating what they had absorbed and propelling the movement further.

The Worcester Art Museum pioneered new artistic horizons by embracing impressionism early in its history. The French and American impressionism collections at the Worcester Art Museum have long drawn visitors to the galleries. The first directors purchased works by Monet from his Parisian dealer, Durand-Ruel, as well as directly from American impressionists, making the Museum one of the first in the United States to collect impressionism actively as contemporary art. Over the past 125 years, this collection has grown, encapsulating the story of the movement’s roots and emergence in France and its subsequent expansion to the United States, Germany, Scandinavia, and beyond. Highlighting more than 30 artists, including Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Mary Cassatt, Childe Hassam, and Max Slevogt, this exhibition demonstrates impressionism’s international allure, captured in subjects as far-flung as Monet’s famed Giverny lily pond to the natural wonders of the Grand Canyon.

Below are a few more selections from the show.

Max Slevogt, “Selbstbildnis im Garten (A Self-Portrait in the Garden at Godgramstein), 1910, Oil on canvas

Lovis Corinth, “Vordem Spiegel (At the Mirror)”, 1912, Oil on canvas

Thomas Cole, “View on the Arno, near Florence”, 1837, Oil on canvas

Paul Signac, “Golfe Juan”, 1896, Oil on canvas

John Singer Sargent, “Katherine Chase Pratt”, 1890, Oil on canvas

About the unfinished painting above (from the museum)-

A successful society portraitist, Sargent painted the elite from his international social circles. In June 1890, Sargent visited Worcester, Massachusetts, where he was inundated by requests for portraits. The sitter’s father, Frederick Pratt, a noted collector and eventual acting director of the Worcester Art Museum (1908 and 1917), became friends with the artist and invited him to return a few months later to paint his daughter, Katherine- although the idea for Katherine’s portrait originated in Sargent’s first trip to Worcester, when he had made a sketch of hydrangeas. Sargent’s vision of Katherine against a backdrop of flowers, however, proved less than satisfactory for his client and he abandoned the painting for another, more formal depiction. As an unfinished work, this painting reveals the immediacy of Sargent’s process, with careful attention to broad swaths of color and patterns in the brushwork to convey flower petals or folds of clothing.

This exhibition will be on view until 1/7/2024.
