The Soviets
'The workers, naturally enough, were the first to react to Bloody Sunday. Abandoning any hope of support from church or tsar, they turned for advice and organizational support to the opposition, especially to the socialists. The Social Democrats and Socialist Revolutionaries were slow to respond: their leaders were still in emigration, cut off from their potential constituents and preoccupied by heated polemics with one another. Local activists did what they could to improvise meetings, protests, and strikes, and gradually their contact with the workers improved and assumed more organized forms. The result was a new type of workers' association, the Soviet (Council) of Workers' Deputies. First set up in the textile town of Ivanovo-Voznesensk to coordinate a general strike, the soviets were usually elected by the workers of the major enterprises in any given town, at the rate of one deputy for every 500 or so workers. They would meet in a large building, or even in the open air, where not only deputies but also their electors could attend and contribute to discussions. This was a close approach to direct democracy, since, at least in principle, any deputy could be recalled at any time if he failed to satisfy his constituents and be replaced by someone else. The members of each soviet elected an executive committee to deal with day-to-day business and to negotiate with employers, municipality, and police: often they would choose professional people, seeing them as more skillful spokesmen than they themselves could be. Through the executive committees the socialist activists gained influence over the soviets and sometimes directly organized them. The soviets were the best forum for radical intellectuals and workers to cooperate with each other at a time of political crisis. For the workers, they took a familiar form: their general meetings resembled overgrown and disorderly village assemblies, in which everyone tried to speak and mass enthusiasm welled up. On the other hand, the executive committees supplied the element of conscious policy and organization. The soviets' greatest moment came in St. Petersburg in October 1905, when they organized a general strike which disrupted normal production and communications not only in the capital city but over much of the empire. This was the decisive blow which compelled the tsar to grant the October Manifesto, promising civil liberties and an elected legislative assembly.'

Woah this is so cool, my mini comic Food Magik in the G:Zines vending machine at the Geelong Library and Heritage Centre!!
G:Zines is tied for my favourite zine fair, it's a monthly swap sell organised by a group of local legends who are doing so much for small press, zinemakers and emerging artists. I have such a blast every time I attend, and have been missing it so much the past few months while recovering from foot surgery! I'm zine deprived I TELL YA!

Bart leans into Cassie's shoulder, and she clutches at her chest. "Rest in Pieces, Mr. Smith!" they say in unison, and he watches their easy familiarity, the well-practiced way their bodies curve against each other, and wonders if this is what the TV means when it talks about friends. The pod gave him the word, the definition as it's written for books and dictionaries, but there's something about seeing it play out in front of him that feels…different. They know each other. They trust each other. Cassie's name on Bart's lips is as easy for him to say as it is for her, and the twist of their tone as they call for each other belays more information than he can read. “So, Thirteen-” “Huh?” he says, and then realises. “Oh. No, don’t call me that. That’s not my name.” Bart blinks at him. “Well then what is?” “Uh-” “Don’t go claiming stranger danger,” Cassie jokes, “I just kicked someone in the balls for you.”
Or: the creation of Spiderboy; or, what's in a name? Kon's not entirely sure how he got his; or, Bart and Cassie blackmail Lex Luthor into allowing his genetic experiment/son to have a life of his own and/or an internship as a normal boy; or, aka "The Incident".
It's a lot of things to a lot of people, but Kon mostly just thinks of it as the first day he met his friends.

Part of the Kon mini bang organised by the fantastic @mamawasatesttube, I got a whole bunch done on my beloved (deranged🤭) Spiderkon au and some awesome art from @breakingthespacetimewall!! 🥰

"Shar's besetting weakness is her overconfidence, which blinds her to the faults in her plans, or leads her always to the conclusion (often justified) that failures in those plans are due to the fallibility of her human followers. Selûne starts [her plans] from the assumption that mortals are fallible, and have their own rights (they are not, and should never be, mere tools)."
I do like Selûne. She's not perfect, as none of the pantheon are, but still. "I tore part of my own soul out and injured myself irreparably to ensure that this world and the beings that live on it could exist, and I want you to live lives that make you happy and fulfilled, and love and respect each other's infinite variety and look out for those who are lost and unloved. Yes, that includes the monsters. I am your mother, also if you're one of my priests then make sure you call me at least once a month. I worry."
Meanwhile: "Loss and destruction and chaos and mortal despair are all "wins" to Shar."
#Can I convince Selûne to adopt Durge and protect them from Bhaal if they agree to put the knife down?#lore stuff#/shadowheart#Vel would be a little confused because Selûne's dogma and hierarchy is so vague it's like: look out for the ostracised; counteract Shar...#...develop a self-care routine#Does not compute..#When do we conquer the nation? What organisation do I infiltrate? What do you mean “try a crafts hobby”?

120 Days of Glowing Up
The university year is over and I have decided that I would like to start forming some habits that aren't study related. I think this break is a great time to focus on myself and create some habits that serve me and my self-care journey. I started this blog as a fresh start, to give myself somewhere to be myself and also become a better version of myself. The new university year starts on February 28th 2025, which is exactly 120 days away from now!
Habits I would like to focus on:
~ Journal every morning and night
~ Pull a tarot card most nights
~ Do my skincare routine everyday (includes my body)
~ Do Duolingo everyday
~ Reach 10,000 steps daily
~ Wake up at 8:30 at the latest
~ Drink 2L of water everyday
~ Read everyday
~ Make my bed every morning
xoxo Kat
30/10/24 (1/120)
Morning
Woke up late, didn't make my bed and didn't journal (I hadn't had the idea to do this challenge yet)
Afternoon
Went for a walk and completed all my rings and reached 10,000 steps.
Night
Had an everything shower and did my skincare
Finished 2L of water
Did a class on Duolingo
Journaled and pulled a tarot card
Read some of my current book - Pride and Prejudice

Self admitted Miguel girlie here sure, but I’m just. honestly floored by takes that assume small inconsistencies between Miguel’s story about the collapsed dimension and how canon events operate = that he’s lying, and its not the story asking you to understand and accept a particular kind of lens to its stakes (what canon events represent and allow the characters to confront is more important than a scientific understanding to the pure mechanics) plus the fact that well.
Miguel doesn’t linger on these inconsistencies because he blames himself. Of course he Occam’s razor-s his own traumatic event and assumes his presence was inherently destructive, of course he’s unwilling to play mad scientist with billions of lives and see for sure what triggers will ensure dimensional collapse.
Even if blaming himself is the one of the worst, most isolating burdens, at least it’s an answer. It least it provides a path forward that will protect people, however stained that path is.
And if he’s wrong, not only does he have no answer for why he’s suffered, why an entire dimension suffered, even if it was never a moralised answer - but he has no certainty as to what to even do now. Every action that he took knowing the moral concession it asked of him as Spider-Man meant nothing, and he’s accidentally doomed people all over again.
#miguel o'hara#atsv#legitimately any Miguel is evil take falls apart the moment you consider he has nothing to GAIN from this#he’s buckling under the weight of his own guilt and grief and he’s so isolated from even his own organisation#he’s just. honestly doing the equivalent of self harm by watching Gabriella videos over and over again while hating the path he’s on but#believing there’s no other way#he’s literally sunk cost fallacy-ed himself in his own guilt and it’s TRAGIC and it makes me so annoyed lmao to see people view all of that#and go omg he’s just evil for incomprehensibly stupid reasons THAT DONT MAKE SENSE W THE ACTIONS HE TAKES#tunes talks spiderverse

monthly reset
hi everyone! since it’s the end of the month, i thought i’d tell you what i do at the end of every month, to prepare for the new month :)
brain dump tasks for the month ahead
this includes any events I have, such as a party, someone's birthday, important deadlines or exam dates, as well as the revision I want to get done in the month.
organise my calendar
i use multiple calendars to keep myself organised. first, i use ical and a physical calendar for birthdays and parties/events. then I use google calendar to time block my week out, adding in when I'm at school, my morning routine, study sessions, workout sessions and my free time. to organise my revision, I have a separate monthly study planner from emmastudies.com that I fill out. i have this above my desk on my corkboard, which helps me to know what revision I have to do on any given day.
set goals
to do this i look at my yearly goals (which i have on my yearly notion page), and then i decide how my yearly goal can be broken down into an achievable yet challenging monthly goal. for example, one of my yearly goals this year is to learn german, so one of my recurring monthly goals is to do german on duolingo daily. as I'm doing my a levels this year, my german study isn't too intensive, but once I've sat my exams in the summer I'll increase how much I study german.
tidy my environment
to bring in the new month it's super important to have a clean and tidy environment. for me, this means clearing any clutter off my desk, vacuuming my bedroom, cleaning my windows, windowsill, mirror and makeup brushes. i also like to tidy my clothes shelves and make sure everything is folded nicely, as well as my underwear and socks in my drawers. don't forget to change your bedsheets as well!
self-care
my favourite thing to do is have an everything shower and do my skincare routine, so I can get into my nice fresh bed all clean :) I also love to go to bed a little bit earlier than I usually do, and read for a little while before going to sleep.
