Today I learned David is taller than every speedster he has had to deal with. Only Pietro wouldn't need to tilt his head back to more or less meet his eyes. Jean-Paul has to hover to see him eye to eye. Tommy has to look up at his tall boy, but that's okay because he's a short king.

oh my god i love them

[indigosabyss]

yo they broke up thinkfast off-page and don't acknowledge it in-universe at all except for David having a different never-before-seen boyfriend in NYX?????

Interview with the writers of that comic say it was to highlight how Prodigy is distancing himself from superhero and mutant stuff while Tommy was doing the opposite. Which is. Fine. I'm not salty at all that this has yet to be mentioned in the comic. Not fuming at all that an off-page breakup is how you handle the relationship that opened the first Marvel Pride comic, which also had the perfect shipname, and still needs to resolve the as of yet unsolved patri-not subplot.

This is fine.

The rest of NYX is alright tho.

Hello, there's an important context to this illustration I made.

Paul Watson is one of the founding members of Greenpeace and the founder of Sea Shepherd and Captain Paul Watson Foundation.

"On July 21 2024, Captain Paul Watson was arrested by Danish police upon arrival in Nuuk, Greenland, onboard the M/Y John Paul DeJoria. Danish authorities claim that the arrest was made due to an international arrest warrant issued by Japan, related to his anti-whaling campaigns in the Antarctic more than a decade ago.

Paul faces the possibility of extradition to Japan, where he could spend the rest of his life in prison."

Please consider informing yourself on the official website of Captain Paul Watson Foundation, spreading the word, and signing the official petitions.

I was so cute when I thought I was writing dark!Father Paul/Monsignour Pruitt in Lamb…now as I’m writing The Red Sky of a Shepherds Warning I’m laughing maniacally because y’all are in for some proper dark!Father Paul. It makes more sense for this story. Plus why the hell not

Letter to Denmark's PM regarding Paul Watson's extradition

To the attention of:   Mrs. Mette Frederiksen, Prime Minister of Denmark   Christiansborg Palace   1218 Copenhagen K   Denmark

Dear Prime Minister,

I am writing to you today to express my deep concern and strong opposition to the extradition of Paul Watson, founder of the NGO Sea Shepherd, to Japan. Mr. Watson was arrested on Sunday, July 21, in Greenland while making a refueling stop with his ship. He is now in detention and faces the risk of being extradited to Japan, following a 2012 arrest warrant for "conspiracy to board." This warrant, however, is fundamentally flawed and abusive, as it targets Mr. Watson for his courageous efforts to prevent the illegal whaling activities that contravene international conventions.

It is crucial to recall that Captain Paul Watson and his crew were headed to the North Pacific to prevent the Japanese ship Kangei Maru from illegally killing whales. His intervention, though radical, has always been peaceful and aimed at enforcing the 1986 international moratorium that bans whaling. Thanks to his actions, approximately 5,000 cetaceans have been spared from harpoons. Whaling is an outlawed and illegal practice that only three countries shamefully continue: Japan, Norway, and Iceland.

Paul Watson has devoted his life to protecting endangered marine animals. The Japanese arrest warrant is an abuse of Interpol's "red notice," originally intended to track international criminals, now being used to suppress a political and environmental opponent. Extraditing Paul Watson to Japan would be tantamount to a death sentence. At 73 years old and a father of three, he would face harsh imprisonment conditions.

For the past year, Paul Watson has been residing in France, where he continues his fight alongside Sea Shepherd France, traveling across the country to give lectures and tirelessly advocate for ocean conservation. It is imperative that France, represented by President Emmanuel Macron, formally request that Denmark refuse this extradition.

### Legal Argumentation

It is also essential to highlight the following legal aspects, which render this extradition not only morally reprehensible but potentially illegal and an abuse of law:

1. *Violation of International Moratorium*: Japan continues to practice whaling in blatant violation of the 1986 international moratorium, an interdiction supported by the International Whaling Commission (IWC). By extraditing Paul Watson, Denmark would indirectly support this illegal activity.

2. *Non-Refoulement Principle*: Under international human rights law, notably Article 3 of the Convention Against Torture, Denmark is obliged not to extradite a person to a state where they risk being subjected to torture or inhumane or degrading treatment. Given the harsh detention conditions and potential treatment Paul Watson might face in Japan, his extradition could violate this fundamental principle.

3. *Abuse of Procedure*: The use of an Interpol red notice by Japan in this context constitutes an abuse of procedure. Interpol’s mission is to combat international crime, not to pursue individuals for actions aimed at enforcing international law. The arrest of Paul Watson on this basis is legally questionable and could be considered an abuse of law.

4. *Defense of International Public Order*: The extradition of Paul Watson contradicts the principles of international public order, which include respecting international conventions on the conservation of endangered species. By protecting Paul Watson, Denmark would demonstrate respect for these principles and support the fight against illegal whaling practices.

By choosing not to extradite Paul Watson, you would powerfully affirm your commitment to justice and environmental protection. Your decisive action can make all the difference. Extraditing Paul Watson would not only be unjust but also send a disastrous message to all those fighting to preserve our planet.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this urgent matter. I sincerely hope you will intervene to prevent this unjust and inhumane extradition.

Yours sincerely,

YOUR NAME

the first time lucas talks about his love for dillon he says it with such intentional honesty and openness, but he says it to carter and declan who use it, twist it, and warp it to manipulate him into rejecting who he is

the second time he does it, he is trying to be manipulative himself, but he still can’t hide the heart of it, only this time he tells john paul who wants nothing more than for him to be able to embrace himself and that love

[tylerposey]

You know nothing about me.

[backyardflames]

Carter's so in love, which means he's going to revert in the harshest possible way to cope :(

I went back in the Channel 4 app and watched some older scenes from last year of McShep (or rather pre-McShep)

I decidedly miss Carter being toppy and bossy, the whole “John Paul, face me” thing prior to us knowing he was gay and had feelings for JP was so interesting. Makes me wonder what the writers at the time were drawing that motivation from - it may have been they briefed the actors they’d be slow burn towards realised feelings for eachother, but at the time JP was just happy to have a new friend who was helping him care about himself again and he was so compliant to Carter. I wish we knew more about JP’s thoughts back then.

I had completely forgotten that Goldie had suggested to JP that Carter had feelings for him and then JP asked him out for dinner. Carter said he’d love to but he had a zoom date with his girlfriend; I’m confused why he said that on so many levels. Did he actually have something going on? The dinner invite was so innocent and innocuous, why did he assume it was anything else and immediately and naturally swerve it like that? It’s weird to watch now. Before then he would have had NO idea JP liked him, in fact did JP even like him until Goldie suggested it? Did he even fancy Carter then?

I know Gareth left as the actor was in a play in London, and he’s due back briefly soon, but I’m still so curious about him. Was he secretly in love with Carter? Because watching back some of it makes sense with that in mind. But then he was also weird about JP but perhaps not in the same way.

Where did all the billboards and posters go of Carter’s group? Those were amazing lol. I want one.

I am compiling further thoughts the more I rewatch…
