“If you love someone, pray for them. Pray for their peace. Pray for their growth. Pray for their success. Pray for their happiness.”
Friend, we haven't met, but we are brother or sister in Christ. 😊 So I pray for your peace. I pray for your growth. I pray for your success. I pray for your happiness. I pray Psalm 23 and The Lord's Prayer over you. I pray the Lord keeps you strong in Him.
May The Lord bless you and keep you; May The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; May the Lord turn his face toward you and give you His peace. (From Numbers 6:24-26)
In the name of Jesus, Amen. 🙏

I haven't been able to contact any of my friends and family in Bangladesh all day. Nationwide internet shutdown. Phone-lines are cut off. The last I heard was that there was curfew and tanks were out in the street.
I'm worried sick as you can imagine.
The death toll has gone up from 6 to 54 in a single day.
I wonder about those men in the armies who are shooting and beating up the students. How can you do this to your own people? They are the real Rajakars.
Even the people who will actually be benefiting from the quota support the students. Who are they doing this for.
#sorry this is incoherent i#am so scared and angry#i keep praying that any of 54 killed wasn't any of my friends or family#and then i feel bad because immediately because they were someone's friend or family even they weren't mine#god you never really realise the horror until it happens to you and your loved ones#i keep refreshing social media but everything is so dead quiet since this morning#bangladesh student protests#bangladesh protests#bangladesh

Contingency Plans
I truly believe the worst insult within in the Batfam is being told "I don't have a contingency plan for you." Because there are only two possible interpretations of that statement, right? Your family member is saying that you're either not a big enough threat to plan around (they'll figure it out on the fly) or not important enough to them to be saved from causing damage you'll regret in case of mind control or snapping after one indignity too many or whatever. It's tacitly understood that something like that WILL happen. Every single Bat agrees that it's not paranoia if the universe really is out to get you, and boy is it ever out to get them and their loved ones.
So imagine the way they react when loved ones OUTSIDE of their fucked up little circle say that. It would basically go:
Bat: Hey, you've been updating your contingency plan for me right? Friend: N-no. No, I haven't?! I don't have a contingency plan for you. Bat: Oh. Why not? Friend: What? Because I love you and I trust you! Bat: Okay, so now you wanna back peddle. Nice try. Friend: ...genuinely what the fuck is happening. Bat: Hmmph! *storms off in anger*
Whereas from the Bat's perspective, that conversation went:
Bat: Hey, you care about and respect me enough to stay apprised of my doings and keep both of us safe in the inevitable event something goes wrong, right? Friend: No, I do not?! In fact, I'm shocked you would ask. Bat: What?! Why?! Friend: Um, I changed my mind. Let me re-answer your previous question with a blatant lie meant to soothe your feelings! Bat: Wow, okay, so that's how it is. I don't appreciate being lied to. Friend: ...You know, I think I'll just play dumb about this whole thing. Bat: Hmmph! *storms off in appropriate anger* Like. Do y'all ever think about this?
#batfam#contingency plans#jacey writes#the bats are nuts and their teams are so confused#also within their own dialect they are a highly affectionate family#it's just that no one else knows that dialect and they come off as a bunch of cold loners who can't stand each other#pray for the friends and partners of the batfamily#they need it#batman#red hood#nightwing#red robin#robin

Dearest friends ♡
I deleted my new blog, and came here to delete this one as well.
As I am going to be honest, and say I am dealing with a lot.
My father, who I have mentioned before is in hospice, took a turn for the worst, and is getting closer to the end I think.
I have to work, study, and take care of many others.
The pressure to reply to asks, comments, and post outfits when I am struggling .. has been a lot. I do not want to let anyone down, but am not feeling as social with all that is happening.
I wanted a bit of peace, comfort, and time to myself during what has been a very difficult time in my life honestly.
Losing my father is .. I cannot describe what it has been like or the sort of grief I have been trying to manage.
There are some genuinely wonderful people here though, who appreciate me being here and brighten my day.
I love, and am so SO very thankful for those sweet friends ♡
So for you I would like to stay! I am not sure what that looks like right now, whether it is fixing up this blog to my comfort level or creating a new one, but I will think about it.
Will you please pray for me, and my father, during this time though?
Giving a big hug, and lots and *lots* of love to every kind and wonderful soul here — Rosy xo
#♡#this was really difficult to open up about#i am so sensitive and struggling with all that is happenening with my father right now admittedly#but God willing i would like to still be present in some way for all my sweet friends#thank you if you pray for me and my family !#i appreciate it SO much !!#sending love and many warm hugs ♡#please take care and all the best to you ~ ! ♡

Why is this book about 1880s London Jews so relatable to the 2020s American Roman Catholic experience?
In Amy Levy's Reuben Sachs, you've got:
The community that is at once fully part of the modern world while having an insular nature (and the amount of modern vs. insular varies based on the person and family)
The people who ignore their religion 99% of the year, but wouldn't even consider skipping services on the important holidays
The ultra-traditionalists who go so intense on holding to traditions that a lot of other members of their religion side-eye them
The kids who go to services only because their parents force them to, or who rebel and refuse to go because they don't see the point or don't believe in God
The new convert who is more zealous than, like, 90% of the people who were born into this religion
A family with its very specific blend of religious opinions and inside jokes that's fully aware that they're baffling to outsiders
This book was apparently meant to be a realistic portrait of Jewish life (in response to Daniel Deronda and its (according to Levy) highly unrealistic and over-idealized portrayal of Jews), and my goodness, did she succeed in capturing what it's like to live in a culturally religious community in a rapidly secularizing world.
#books#victober#reuben sachs#amy levy#i'm only about a third of the way through but the impression's already so strong i have to talk about it#i thought the anglican church drama was relatable but this cranks it up to 11#also i need to say that while i'm struggling through two books by people who are major overwriters#it is *such* a relief to read something by an under-writer#it's snappy it's quick it's witty it's concise#the oscar wilde vibe is still going strong#i have no clue how these family connections work#and her habit of underwriting is making it hard to differentiate this huge cast#but it's still fun to meet them all#also: love the deeply middle-class vibe#we've got your bankers and your businessmen#but one guy shows up and he's just...a dentist#so refreshing so real#also: i adore the way levy writes family relationships#maybe my favorite thing about her#all these people who are fully aware of each others' quirks#will constantly poke fun at each other but also love each other#in a way that's equal parts fondness and exasperation and good humor#there's something about her style that resonates so well with my interior personality/thought process#and maybe with my writing style/approach to stories#which is very weird because as people we're total opposites#but it feels like hanging out with a friend#anyway i prayed for her last night

Hello infinitely wise followers. Today I will be dropping my major in art to ONLY pursue creative writing because it’s stretching me thin to get by in Two Things when I could be really good in One Thing. I now only have one major. And many experiences.
#Art is like my mistress and creative writing is my beloved wife.#They’re my two prom dates that I’m dragging along even though I know who I love the most.#And real talk… I don’t want a career in art 💀💀#And I’m being so serious when I say my progress has suffered TREMENDOUSLY since I’ve been “taking it seriously”#My best work was made when I thought I wanted to be a biologist and I had just called it a cute little hobby.#This seems like. A Not Big Deal. Or a Very Big Deal. It’s neither.#Like aaaa I’m going the normal Uni route now what the heck??#But I’ve slept on it. I’ve prayed on it. I’ve made sure my friends and family and professors think it’s a good idea.#So yeah… BYE Bachelor’s in Art it was fun while it lasted 🥳 HELLO BFA in Creative Writing#And. Um. I could write without drawing but I can’t draw without writing. Goodbye.#Decision based on preference and not fear ✌️

“Look Back and Thank God, Look Forward and Trust God”:
“Our faith is all about a personal relationship with the God who created us from an overflow of His love. There are two crucial traits we must embody if we are to grow in that relationship daily: Thankfulness and trust.
Thankfulness allows us to look back upon our life and show gratitude to God for the way He has led us to where we are today. Romans 8:28 says, “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” In all the good times, and all the bad, God has been leading you toward a purpose. You can rest assured that He has a plan for your life. He is worthy of your gratefulness for leading you along that path.
Trust is essential in order for our faith to grow as well. It’s important to trust the vision path God has shown you. He’s trustworthy. You can trust Him with your future and where He is leading you. He will NEVER lead you astray. He wants nothing more than to guide you to the fulfillment of your ultimate potential in Him.
Together, thankfulness and trust will spark a new fire in your faith, leading you deeper and deeper into God’s love. You’ll find yourself embracing your identity in Christ more and more each day while making huge strides toward the purpose He has called you to. Spend time with Him daily, and as your relationship blooms, so too will these feelings you are working hard to cultivate.
Keep thankfulness and trust for the Lord alive within your heart. Remember the blessings He has poured out upon your life so far and trust Him to show you the path forward as you embrace your future. Never forget to look back and thank God, all while looking forward and trusting Him!
Lord, thank You for Your faithfulness. Your character is the very definition of what it means to be trustworthy and true. Help to grow within me a heart filled with nothing but love, trust, and thankfulness for You. You are the author of all good things in my life, and because of it, I long to give you praise. In Your holy and beautiful name, I pray, Amen.”
“I will give him the key to the house of David—the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them.” —Isaiah 22:22 (NLT)

So I think I'm over my Obey Me Phase or like at least over Nightbringer because it's Season was shit but just you know food for thought...
Aint it funny how MC is now completely isolated from other humans/their friends/family/pets?
Like my friend and I were talking about it and like imagine MC has HUMAN/MORTAL family and friends that they talk to every time they were separated from the brothers. Like whenever the Immortals really tries them or pushes them they can go to their human friends for like a palate cleanser and a clear head/remind themselves and ground them to the reality of their situation/support from NOT blind lemmings. Like sort of remind them that they're still human and not on the same playing field as immortal Demons/Angels/Sorcerers
But now in Nightbringer that's literally stripped from them; MC has NO ONE outside of the Brothers/Immortals they're literally FORCED to bond with their circle of dysfunctionals and its like now you are stuck in that toxic friend circle because literally your circle of support hasn't been born/exist yet. That's fucking horrific.
No wonder MC is far more clingy and annoying in Nightbringer than they are in OG; Every lesson is a chip away at their original personality and sanity to replace it to the codependent creep MC is now lol.
#obey me nightbringer#obey me#obey me MC#obey me nightbringer MC#MC is so fucking annoying this is the only headcanon i can work with#No but like its so creepy because i always imagined MC balanced their human life and their Devildom life to stay rational but now#Well now with no circle of human/mortal supporters like their friends and family theyre literally forced to cling to the brothers#Its so terrifying about Nightbringer thats why Im still so upset we're stuck in the Past#Its shit like this that makes me unable to enjoy Time Travel Shit like I want to go for Boba with my friends but I cant do that#No i cant do that because I got a toxic friend group to babysit#No but like MC seems more stupid and clingy so my guess is theyre mentally unraveling to the point they just dont want to be alone#Like begging for validation and attention from anyone especially the immortals#Pray for MC theyre going into their codependent phase now#Don't worry; just like with real friends theyre not gonna break out of this for years until they get the courage#Which we all know MC doesnt have the balls to drop the brothers/Immortals like bad habits lol#Ima play with this headcanon until MC stops sucking or we go back to the future.#I miss MC's family and friends who have to live with the fact the immortals took them from them again

it's been like 24 hours since i saw graffiti saying DYKES SAY FREE PALESTINE and a response in another color right beside it, FAGS TOO! and i haven't stopped tearing up every time i remember. i think of the statues in ireland honoring and thanking the choctaw nation, and of ireland returning the favor when their friends across the sea needed them. i know that palestine will be free. sudan and bangladesh will be free. fear and tyranny cannot win because we love each other too much.
#palestine#sudan#bangladesh#all eyes on bangladesh#praying for my bangladeshi friends' and their families' safety and the restoration of power soon.

#made it back to school last night from my childhood hometown in NC#i feel so strange... i got there on thursday afternoon and came back yesterday but i feel like that weekend lasted a month#i think i am in shock still.. the area i grew up in is so utterly and completely devastated i can hardly comprehend it#not to mention the surrounding states...#and even though we were just trying to survive while i was there and it was so so scary .. it was only temporary for me#i get to go home to my cushy apartment with running water and electricity while some of my closest friends and family are wondering#if they can get enough water#and so many have lost their livelihoods or even their lives#some of them have gotten water and power back but others are still stuck. and i feel like i am still there even though im not.#its like this weird anxious guilty numbness feeling that wont go away and gets worse whenever i turn on lights or see a case of water.#i dont live there anymore but I am so emotionally tied to that area ... and i was there for the storm and saw the aftermath#but its not actually my home so i feel like... i dont know what I feel actually.#but i dont feel good#and then i feel guilty for feeling bad too!! like I dont deserve to be upset or traumatized?? maybe i should go to therapy again...#idk if any of this even makes sense... and i dont mean to be all me me me during all of this. i guess I am just tired and need to vent a bi#anyway please please pray for the people affected by the hurricane. and if you can donate that would be so so wonderful.#it seems like it will be years for the area to fully recover. if it ever even does.#if youve read this far you have my apologies for my word slop... heres a heart for you 🩷 and a caterpillar 🐛 i think i need to go to bed#i have class and rehearsal tomorrow. even though all of that just seems kind of pointless to me right now#but maybe more sleep will help...#my post

I get the whole thing about self-deprecating jokes and things not being laughing matters and there are some really fine lines there. And that this is probably some cultural or generational thing, snd so on.
But there's something so deeply normalizing and freeing about taking the piss out of something that feels like it should ruin you.
#obvs context is everything. bullying etc#but it hurts me a little when some people (young people on the internet perhaps in particular) take everything to be so genuine#that a harmless good-faith joke is interpreted as bullying - by a bystander#(if the jokee sees it this way then it is. indeed. bullying.)#the example i cant help but coming back to is my pentecostal fundie christian-raised best friend#came out as gay and asked us. very specifically. to NOT STOP telling gay jokes. for anything in the world#not in an 'haha dw im still cool' type of way but because being gay. in his family. meant choosing to spend eternity in hell#homosexuality is an illness to pray your way out of. its not even life or death - its a question of your immortal soul#something you can't really discuss. much less confess to.#and we JOKED about it. we talked about it in plain words and LAUGHED about it like it was the most normal thing in the world and that#made him feel safe. and reminded him that he was accepted. because with us it was an utterly harmless thing to be.#and just. you know.#diversity of experience i guess
