Leader of the National Socialist Network, Jacob Hersant, needed his mum to hold his hand to prevent him from doing the salute whilst in court being told “nah mate, you did it and you’re fucked”

Nazi adults not being trustworthy with what they’re doing with their hands is definitely on brand 🤡

Don’t ask Joel Davis or Michael Nelson about the age of consent 🤫

~ more about Michael under the cut ~

Michael has experienced a lot of loss in his life. He lost his beloved wife, Lydia, seven years ago. Before that, about twenty years ago now — Where does the time go? he wonders — he and Lydia lost their son Thomas (their only child) and their granddaughter Caroline in a tragic and senseless car-pedestrian crash. Michael’s mother passed away when he and his older brother were still teenagers. Last year, his brother passed, too.

After Lydia’s passing, he was lonely in his grief, but now he’s just… lonely. Michael is bisexual, but he spent many years concealing his attraction to men from the world. He remembers a time when society did not consider such ideas as same-sex love acceptable at all, but things are much different now. He’s out and proud, and he’s ready to meet men openly for the first time. He’s very excited about the possibilities.

Michael is still close to his daughter-in-law, Grace, who was actually the first person he came out to. He’s also greatly encouraged by his grandson Victor, who is asexual and married to a man, and whom he’ll brag about nonstop if someone doesn’t admonish him to change the subject.

In his early years, Michael was a world-class competitive skier. He’s obsessed with skiing still; it’s been a lifelong passion that he’s sure will never fade. (He’ll also talk incessantly about skiing if someone doesn’t stop him). Other than skiing, he likes swimming (another sport he always excelled at), yoga, and working out. He generally wants to keep himself in the best condition possible. He also likes to dance.

He absolutely loves to cook and bake, and can spend hours in the kitchen. Sadly, there’s no one at home to cook for these days, other than himself, and that’s not much fun. He’d like to have someone to cook for and enjoy meals with again. His other pastimes include gardening, fishing and knitting. He really likes to knit and is constantly amused by people’s reactions when they see his projects.

Michael had a long and fulfilling career as a physical education teacher and swimming coach at the local high school. The students loved him, mainly because he’s funny and kind of a troublemaker and could almost always relate to them. In some ways, he’s never quite grown up. He often tells his grandson Victor that growing up and being mature are two completely different concepts, and he’s pleased that Victor has followed him in fully embracing this as a way of life.

A few random facts:

He doesn't like nicknames. He'll quickly correct anyone who calls him "Mike" or "Mickey" or any other short variant of his name. It's Michael, thank you very much, and he won't tolerate anything else.

He used to be a ginger before his hair went white, but he still has the freckles.

He has hearing loss in his left ear, and wears a hearing aid.

He adores animals and always had pets, until recently. Currently, he likes to feed the neighbourhood cats, much to the annoyance of the neighbours.

He speaks English and French

He's travelled all over the world, and really loves to travel.

He prefers baths to showers

He's a tea drinker. He likes coffee well enough, but prefers tea.

His favourite colours are red and blue

Michael is crossing his fingers that he gets to participate, even if he’s not the successful one in the end. He enjoys attention, and he thinks the whole experience will be “super awesome!” (he learned that from his grandson) and a great adventure, regardless of the eventual outcome.

———

One of his pastimes is to sit in his front yard and watch the neighbours. He's easily entertained.

He was scared of the thunderstorm, but obviously not too scared to eat. Hmm… now I think we know who Victor inherited his priorities from.

Michael being a whole mood ^^

Still a heartbreaker ♥

The final records weren't always meant as such as we have seen in our cases here. While we mostly mentioned some bands in that regard, even solo musicians make their last albums without being aware this would've been their ends. I mean, Prince settled on a certain groove on his later records, where one cannot claim he coasted on his former glories, he just did what he wanted to do like always. Still, these later LPs showed we took him for granted before his death. I agree, few of these attempts reach the heights of his 80's, though there are some gems in them that present you with someone who could still be capable of greatness, he just needed a brave editor to focus. You are correct – who would've been foolish enough for that?

there he is

what people think alice oseman books are like: blushing awkward first meetings, little chaste first kisses, giggling teenage boys holding hands what alice oseman books are actually like: hey what if your entire personality is actually a carefully constructed facade to make other people like you and to disguise the fact that you don't actually know who you are. if you stripped away all the walls, all the artificial things that you think make you up, what would be left? what would happen if you stopped living for other people and started living for yourself? is there even a person in there or just a gaping void with nothing left in it? wouldn't that be fucked up? do you even know yourself? do you even have a real personality anymore?

future plans

Whatcha thinking about, Michael?

Michael: Food. And skiing, but mainly food. Oh, and my rugged good looks. But, did I mention food? And skiing? I might have to go up to the mountains this weekend. Hmm…

Ah yes, now we can see which family member Victor takes after.

Michael: Speaking of my grandson, I’ve been considering a move, and I was thinking Willow Creek might be nice. Victor’s coming home soon, you know, and I’d like to be closer to him. I’d be nearer the mountains there too, and did you know that my daughter-in-law Grace is an excellent cook? I’d probably invite myself over there for dinner every evening.

Do you think Willow Creek is ready for you?

Michael: Is there any place that isn’t ready for the great Michael Nelson? Everybody loves me, and I love them. Think of all the new friends I’ll make. The ladies I might meet…

Okay then.

Michael: I’ll just hang around at the fitness center looking fit and handsome, as one does, and I’m sure I’ll attract all sorts of compatible people. It’s never too late for a second chance at love, and I think it should be acceptable to enjoy myself in the process of finding the right one, don’t you?

If you wanna go there

Well, darling, I'd love to
