Beautiful Savior!

Psalm 50:1-3. The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before Him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about Him. This is a full-length video. You may not have the time to watch it all…

“Whilst there were many infamous cases of starving women over the centuries (some perhaps fraudulent), it was not until 1873 that anorexia nervosa became a recognized clinical syndrome. That the 'fasting girl' had become a serious problem for Victorian medicine is apparent from the image of the wasting invalid in Victorian art and literature. One explanation for the emergence of anorexia is that its symptoms were an expression of the cultural context of Victorian society, and in particular, a reflection of the attitude of the Victorians towards both femininity and food. It was in the Victorian era that food became a focal point for female distress, a symbolic communication, as well as one of the visible aspects of life over which women had some control. Food took on a significance far greater than that represented by its nutritional function. Denying food became a means of exemplifying femininity, of reaching a physical and spiritual ideal. As Brumberg argues:

Young women searching for an idiom in which to say things about themselves focused on food and the body. Some middle class girls, then as now, became preoccupied with expressing an ideal of female perfecion and moral superiority through denial of appetite. (Brumberg, 1988: 188)

To be frail, pallid and wasted was fashionable for the middle-class Victorian woman. Her working-class counterpart had little time for wasting of any kind; she needed to eat to work. Starvation became associated with femininity, and food became synonymous with everything which was distasteful to the upper-class woman: appetite, defecation, animality, working-class drudgery, obese ugliness, indulgence, and worst of all, uncontrolled sexuality. Thus, within the same discourse in which madness and hysteria were seen as a result of unnatural sexuality, disorders of appetite were associated with masturbation or with sexuality. Control of food intake was seen as a reflection of the body, and thus of sexuality, that fiend which bespoiled the purity of the 'angel in the house. Mothers trained their daughters to control themselves, to train the appetite . . . so that it represented only the highest moral and aesthetic sensibilities' (Brumberg, 1988: 175).”

I’m here to review all of the covers of Carry On I could find. This is divided into three categories of a) English covers I see in stores so I presume are American but I also accidentally somehow have the Australian editions of Mortal Instruments so who fucking knows. b) other English editions that I’m assuming are UK/Canadian/other English speaking countries editions but don’t really know. And b) international translated covers. Now:

1. American Paperback

2/10. There is nO drip or pizzazz here. The minimalist covers in the UK have more drip and pizzazz than this mf.

2. American Bookshelf (Print-On Hardcover/School Library)

8/10. I didn’t like this one at first but it is the version I own so it’s grown on me. I annotated this motherfucker. It’s got SO much drip and pizzazz. I love this version.

3. American Hardback

4/10. I think it’s. Fine. I don’t particularly care for it, I think against the other two covers of the trilogy this one doesn’t match at all and the paperback/Bookshelf edition match better. I would like it more if we had editions of the the rest of the trilogy that matched this.

4. UK Edition

5/10 this starts what I call the ‘royal starcrossed lovers’ section of the cover editions. I believe this is the UK version? I’ve never seen it in the US, at least. Baz and Simon look like forbidden romance princes. I love it. It looks like a sweet tarts box. I simply cant rank it higher than a five but the rest ARE better.

5. Italian Edition <<3

9/10 this looks like. T4T royal gay forbidden romance. I KNOW its supposed to be Baz, Simon, Penny, and Agatha but its so much better to think they’re trans.

6. Italian Edition part II

7/10. This is soooo. Eating it up. They way they arent looking at each other… the DEER the MASSIVE watford silouette. Thank you Italy cover designed

7. Portugese edition

7/10 the colour scheme of this is PERFECION. im literally gonna eat this one its SOOOOOOOO perfect you guys I meant it. I love this cover.

8. Hebrew Edition

3/10. I have no qualms with the Hebrew cover it just feels so.. uncanny valley. Why are they switched. baz go back to the Simon’s right you’re his right hand man. His little hip jut out it so gay. What is this

9. German edition

1/10 this is sooo 😭😭💀 it looks like a parody novel. What is this. This look like a 1990’s parody of Harry Potter. Its so. What.

10. Russian Edition

10/10. No notes. Funniest covers EVER. My mate said this looks like Disney Magic Fairies and they were RIGHT. its so cartoonish. It looks like. Like a childrens novel AND IT HAS THE 18+ IN THE CORNER. the 18+ in the corner makes this ten times better its so FUNNY. it makes it so GOOFY. this cover understood the assignment. This book is silly and goofy.

He was very talented for the arts and music, so he always knew he will do something close to that.

When he was in school, he used to go to the classes of singing and he knows how to play piano and guitar. Although Grey liked the music and playing the instruments, it was more of his mother wish then his own. His mum was always dreaming about being a famous singer or pianist, which wasn't Greyson's dream at all. He was still attending the classes and played in the school as well as long as it will make his mum happy.

Greyson really grew up being very close to both of his parents, as well as his brother Lucius and sister Norah. His childhood and school days were more than happy and he couldn't ever ask for more.

The job is going great, but his love life is a kind of a mess. Before he moved, he was in a long relationship with a guy who hurt him a lot. That is why Grey doesn't want to get involved with anyone, unless it is a friendship.

My first song: »Everything I Do«

This is a instrumental attempt processing a thought I have: "Everything I do is wrong". I guess it is a normal to have this thought from time to time. It comes to my mind when I want to find do something perfect and forget that perfecion does not exist. If you are heading for perfection, Everything you do is wrong.

Do you know this feeling? How do you like my song?

A life update post- October 2nd 2024

Trigger warning: Mentions of anxiety (*Anxiety sucks in general obviously and truthfully.): burn out and drainage of energy

I turned 28 on October 1st which is my birthday however it doesn't mean I am feeling truthfully happy or excited ever since I did felt as if I am experiencing the feeling of how I had been feeling the more unpleasant feelings of how I am getting older but I did felt as if I didn't achieve anything in my very own life dejectedly.

Plus it has been a been a tough roller coaster ride/ surf ride of the past few months just for me however this year had been feeling so challenging for me to the point where I now have to truly take a step back for what feels like a long while which I am not exactly sure when I am going to make a comeback however it may take a really long time for me to recover.

However since I am planning to take a step back for a really long while, I am going to put my focus on my mental health first ever since the writing process of the untitled Lolex Fan Fiction I am now doing on both the prologue and the first chapter of the fan fiction was definitely very tough for me to do it especially with all of the perfectionism I am currently experiencing when I am doing the writing process in addition to how I am feeling truthfully anxious about how would the people react whenever they did read the post online on both my personal blog on my Blogspot as well as my Tumblr Blog on here thus this type of feeling of experiencing both ghe anxiety of how I kept wanting to change the narration of both the chaoter and the story as well in addition to the perfecionism feeling I am currently experiencing whenever I am doing any of my writing projects does truthfully scares me a lot to the point where suddenly I did felt as if I am becoming more and more drained by the writing process of doing a whole chapter of it or even a short Fan Fiction I am doing it online plus yet, I had too become too much of a workaholic in my very own life plus I didn't even truthfully realize about how I had actually became both too drained and burned out from all of the writing projects I've been currently doing and yet I've also became less and less productive too as well especially on many of writing projects for now.

After a very long while, I am going to consider taking a step back from doing many of writing projects and putting more of my very own focus in my very own life first and foremost ever since I am truthfully getting older and yet I do need to truly realize that there is more to life than to simply stay in a room, doing the same activities all day every day to the actual point where it suddenly felt as if you are doing a chore you didn't tuthfully wanted to do obviously. (*Not going to count on the little every day activities on waking up, getting out of bed; preparing for the day by brushing the teeth, washing the face; taking a morning shower: making breakfast & every other meals of the days, weeks; and months too as well.)

Anyway, I know this is a very long life update from me to everybody who is reading this particular post on my personal Tumblr blog on here plus I do truthfully wish you well in general as may god bless you in every step of the way both unconditionally and faithfully with all of his unwavering love and support. 🫶🏽 🙏🏽

De nada sirve buscar perfecion

[nastrond-skelly]

The once revolutionary invention of material etenalization became the dread of those who had to sell their labour to survive. With time the factories became slaughterhouses and rotten cornucopias of goods distribution, those who's wealth could not plummet transcended their servants with bodies of fine metals and artistic beauty, promising perfection through rotting simulacra for their wage slaves to inhabit.

The black wing has canonized the monsters of the past in their faith, images of the once propagandized as antrapaneurs as saints of a faith built on unreality. They now seek the perfecion and immortality of our old masters, butchering those with enough empathy and self respect to reject becoming their thralls. They see their crude machine bodies as recreations of their sires, building spires of steel as temples to the offices of old, their empire's sterility, the return to the class divides of the dark ages between the rise of steam and the great heat.

They are the enemy of progress and personhood, and we shall not let their rotten coins touch our land. We'll sink our fangs and claws in what remains of their flesh, and we'll spit their rotten blood out. People of the combyned, the time has come to bear arms and resist once more.

- Lake Erikdotter's, first comrade of the third crustacean-canine united companies of the People's Combynate, speech at the battle of salt river.

My beloved comrade furries spitting facts about the anarcocapitalist mechanical horrors, maybe a snippet I'll put in the rulebook when introducing the black wing as a faction.

The mini is an elite thrall for the black wing, i wanna give them some funny rules

↳ Para:

“Are you ready?” Still half asleep, Grey could hear the voice of his sister in front of his door. Sometimes he wished she wouldn't be awake so early. Although he loved her to bits, she would drive him mental some of the days. Taking a look on his phone, he could saw it was only 6 am.

“Ready for what? It is like 6 am.” He mumbled to her, as loud as he possibly could. Her laughter was loud enough, even if he was asleep it would surely wake him up. He knew this was a big step tho. Every part of him was telling him he is being only a coward. That didn't matter really - what other choice did he have? He suffered enough anyway.

“You know it's a go time! Come on, hurry up.” She answered to him with happy voice, which almost made him forgot how miserable he actually was. Maybe this would be a good change. If not good, it's definitely a necessary one..

Ese pétalo extraviado que algún día fue una flor, me recuerda el dolor de la perdida, pero la perfecion de la flor.

[imbabyferret]

Hay veces en las que siento celos de mis amigas, son tan perfectas, pero no se dan cuenta de su belleza, y su mentalidad es tan genial.

Y yo me siento tan vacía... Tan quebrada. . .

[el-dolor-siempre-llega]

amo todo de ti , tu nariz cuando topa con la mía  , tu sonrisa con brakets  , cuando frunces la nariz cuando cojo tus cachetes y lo mucho que te molesta que coja tus largas pestañas , lo claros que son tus ojos a la luz del sol y lo alborotado que es tu pelo cuando acabas de despertarte , cada lunar en tu cara y cada pelo de tu ceja aunque suene muy obsesivo amo todo de ti .....

[flowerycoffin]

This whole „abusing family” thing would suit Blitz so much better (his fathers gaslighting could be good if we saw Blitz being affected by it on more personal level like perfecionism [sorry for misspelling] or being people pleaser). His childhood would be dictated by unhealthy family dynamics (this thing above + having Barbie Wire being gifted-burned-out child + his mother being absent mentally or physically) and adult life by toxic relationships (make Verosica be spoiled or smth idk I’m at hangover, make him have multiple lovers, show how he’s unable to bond with Loona and her being living curse for him and yet he still won’t let her go because he’s projecting onto her).

Than make Blitz see vaguelly similar pattern in Goetia family - Stolas is absent in his spouse and child lives and when he is, he’s making everything to avoid serious topics, Stella has unhealthy coping mechanisms and uses abuse as a tool to make others listen to her, Octavia have to do everything alone (learn about grimoire, ethique, history, be her parents communication device and therapist).

At this point I should start my own show, because it’s not even a rewrite

Also I get it, Viv wants to write a story that men can be abused, but with Stolas he just looks like an idiot? He’s crying and suffering at the hands of Stella, you’re a fucking powerful demon prince, USE YOUR FUCKING POWERS. What happened to the Stolas that actually had the courage to grab Stella’s hand when she was about to hit him? These writers are SO damn determined to paint him out to be this useless woobified helpless princess who needs saving. It be one thing if he was physically and literally trapped in this marriage, but he’s not. He literally kicked her out of the house, no one in the Goetia family seems to care about the divorce, and he’s capable of leaving her. The dialogue acts as if he’s trapped with her every day against his will but he’s not. There’s NOTHING stopping him from not seeing her, not even Octavia. This is why dialogue/show don’t tell is important when it comes to writing and Viv fucks it up as usual.
