“It was September. Together they watched the day undo itself. Shorter than the day before in this season. Longer than those to come.”—from Moonbath by Yanick Lahens, translated by Emily Gogolak

what references to previous songs could you find in moonbath -the latest yorushika single?? :O

so far most of it sounds like Kaze wo Hamu, mixed with a bit of Yakou though i think around 2:55 i heard a bit of last few notes from the outro of Nautilus and ofc Telepath's melody from about 3:55 onwards

also kind of unrelated, not sure if the extended tEEEEEEEeeeeeeeEEEEEEEeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE is a reference to Miyakoochi's wAAAaaaaAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAAA which might be referencing Haru Dorobou's kUUUUuuuuUUUUuuUUUUUU

i mean just look at it. they're five notes that alter within the same syllable

if i missed some (or if you think i missed some) lemme know!

I love the moon. Do you? I believe the moon beams rejuvenate us! Have you had a moon bath lately? Winter moon baths are more inverating to me! #abeink #moonbeams #ALB #moonlovers #moonbath https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Moon-Beams-by-abeink/133347152.PMPL1?utm_source=rb-native-app&utm_campaign=share-product&utm_medium=android (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnk16r8pCoP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

crew of the revenge halloween party where everyone goes as a different flavor of captain bonnet:

wee john goes as stede’s fancy party powdered wig 1.05 look (but with more glitter)

frenchie replicates the cursed red suit (it’s only a replica tho so it’s fine, it’s not cursed, don’t worry you guys)

jim goes as all-white gut-stabbed 1.03 stede complete with a loosely tied piece of rope around their neck. remember in 1.06 when they fake tortured a dummy during the fuckery? imagine that much gusto being put into pretending to be stede getting hanged to death at random intervals throughout the party

olu goes as leather pants + slutty blue shirt stede and honestly? he kinda wears it better than stede does

zheng goes as the same stede but with a wooden board tied to the back of her pants to commemorate the time she publicly spanked planked him

fang goes as stede wearing ed’s leathers. this costume involves putting flour on his face to simulate how stede was suffering from severe blood loss in that episode

the swede goes as classic pilot episode teal suit stede and does a dead-on stede impression (picture stede in the background huffing “i don’t sound like that!” and ed kissing his cheek and lovingly saying “yes you do, babe”)

roach goes as 2.01 broke era stede. this costume also involves a pillow and a blanket and occasionally moaning “ed, oh ed” out loud

lucius goes as 1.08 stede pulling an all-nighter to stare at ed and jack through a telescope. nightgown, pink robe, makeup to emulate the bags under stede’s eyes, gripping a telescope for dear life (stede tries to argue “it wasn’t all night” but olu is like “no i was there, it was literally the entire night”)

black pete goes as 1.02 stede with his shirt all ripped up (ed voice: man it’s a good thing he’s already dead bc i could literally kill izzy for not telling me about this)

ed goes shirtless and wears an orange skirt. the crew is like “that’s not a stede costume” and ed’s like “no listen ok. one time i had a dream where stede was a mermaid.” the crew is understandably confused and ed’s just like “had to be there ig” and they’re like “had to be there… in your dream?” and he’s like “yeah.”

archie panics bc she hasn’t known stede for long and everyone took all the good ones that she was actually there for. jim offers suggestions but it’s all s1 stuff and archie’s like “i can’t do the treasure hunt look, i wasn’t there.” eventually she gives up and just shows up fully nude and is like “im stede on the night of calypso’s birthday”

about halfway through the halloween party buttons shows up and de-birds himself, at which point archie sees that buttons is there and is also naked and is like “bro no fair, i called dibs on this stede costume!”

[catilinas]

also catilina’s riddle (steven saylor novel) is sooo good and correct in taking the phrase catilina’s riddle from plutarch and turning it into a) a genuinely good novel about where power is situated in rome, b) that also identifies ‘catilina’s riddle’ as the unsolvable problem of reconstructing the historical catilina from sources written by his enemy, and partially responds to this by incorporating bits of pro-catilina classical reception, and c) does this via a fun murder mystery involving an unidentified headless corpse

The island nation of Haiti has a rich history haunted by imperialist violence and cruelty. My most recent list of books-in-translation features books from Haiti, books that dive into historical fiction or contemporary satire, digging into everything from character-driven narrative to Vodou to the politics of survival. Check out all of my recommendations!

Aurora Black 👻 Swimwear Outfits

Aurora strikes me as the type to enjoy bathing in a natural pool during a full moon or something. Middle fit is for lounging by the poolside, not for swimming. CC free!
