Dutch Van Der Linde’s first night under the stars. 1870

[littlefankingdom]

Everytime something happens in France in a comic, I realize how little researches comics writers do. And like, if they are this bad with my western country, how bad it is with third-world countries they talk about???

In Nightwing (2016), Raptor is from a circus that was near Paris during Mary Grayson's childhood, so more than 40 years ago at least.

In this flashback, they accuse the mayor of Paris of having given leprosy to the romani and of keeping away the meds they need. Already, with our healthcare's system, it's hardly possible, as they would be able to go to a hospital to get the help they need. Do they think "public healthcare" means the state has a direct control on medication, because that's not the case at all. The French gov control the money put into medication, how much is bought, but a mayor has no power over this. I just don't understand how something like this could happen. You can totally write a racist medical scandal in France, but makes it make sense with our system.

But also, Paris didn't have a mayor until 1977, so if it's before 1977, impossible. And, Paris' mayor from 1977 to 1995 is JACQUES CHIRAC, who was the PRESIDENT after. They wrote a story implying that a French President kept medications away from sick people, was discovered and was still elected President. And, yes, the French government is far from good and they have deeply harmed the romani, but like, maybe don't write shit like that. (Also, Chirac was really against the war of Iraq, and stood up against the US, which France is still paying the price for to this day. So I don't really like an USAmerican to criticize Chirac. Like, we can do it, others can do it, but not USAmericans, y'all have done enough) I'm pretty sure that wasn't the goal of the writers. No, what happen is that they didn't do researches about Paris' mayor and so, wrote that shit.

This may be inspired by the contaminated blood's scandal in the 80s-90s, which was worst in France, but no mayor was found guilty, it was doctors who knowingly contaminated patients with a deadly illness. And the French government was held accountable, even if they had no hand in it, as a matter of principle.

I understand it's a fiction, and they didn't literally wrote "Chirac did this", but it's kind of clumsy. (Especially because of everything I wrote earlier about Chirac's politics and how the US is still punishing France for being against killing civilians and destroying Iraq. France was doing the right thing, and the US worked so France would go back in line and treat Arabs like shit. Do not think western countries are free from the US' imperialism)

And in no way I'm saying that you cannot write France being awful, I know my gov's crimes (rn, they have deported homeless out of Paris for the Olympics, the President is refusing to acknowledge the left won the elections and to take a leftist prime minister so we have no prime minister since mid July and fuck democracy I guess, they support Israel's crimes against humanity, and are behaving like the colonizers that they are in New-Caledonia, sending the armies against the Kanaks that have not enough power on their own land), I'm just saying it should at least be believable enough to work. (Easiest way: make the cops racist. Boom. Also, French cops talk like vilains, it's insane.) And also, not about someone touchy like clumsily painting badly a president that was punished by the US for doing the right thing.

MFA Boston Returns a 2,500-Year-Old Necklace to Turkey

When the museum bought the necklace in 1982, it did not receive any provenance records.

The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has repatriated a necklace to Turkey after scholars told museum staff that elements of the artifact were likely looted from an ancient tomb illegally excavated in the 1970s.

Parts of the disassembled 2,500-year-old gold and carnelian necklace, which has been on display at the MFA for more than forty years after it was acquired, were believed by researchers to have been taken out of Turkey after an illicit excavation that took place in 1976.

The necklace is believed to have been strung together and sold privately to the museum by a London dealer in 1982.

Prior to its return, an outside researcher contacted the museum about the necklace’s suspect provenance record, comparing its similarities to other beads and metallic elements of ancient jewelry excavated from a site in the province of Manisa located in Western Turkey.

According to Victoria Reed, the MFA’s Sadler Curator for Provenance, some beads from the looted site that were used as visual references by scholars to link the MFA necklace to it never left the country. They were instead placed in the collection of a local archaeological museum.

The museum’s internal staff conducted its own review of the object’s ownership record to confirm the outside research.

In a statement announcing the artifact’s return, Reed said, “It’s our responsibility to ensure that we are not holding onto objects that were unlawfully acquired.”

Representatives from Turkey’s government attended a repatriation ceremony at the Turkish consulate in Boston to retrieve the necklace earlier this week, where they signed a memorandum marking the occasion.

got a bit of a friendgroup going

some physical descriptions down below that i based my designs on (since Virgo and Nemo don't have canon designs)

[that-angry-noldo]

join me in my "finrod and co adopt elured and elurin" propaganda, we have:

Namo, who to distressed Nimloth (who can't follow her husband and doesn't want to live without him but also doesn't want her boys to stay dead) says "don't worry i've got just the guy for ya"

Finrod, "just the guy", who's one step away from nervous breakdown, hoards every single book on parenting available, and is under constant stress of screwings things up

Amarie, who tries to act like a strict parent and fails spectacularly (she sneaks candies and bisquits in twins' pockets)

Eärwen, who's still shocked but warms up to the kids quickly, and reads them fairytales when Finrod needs a break (Elurin is always on her lap)

Finarfin, who hears what he thinks is 1500 yo vase breaking, and thinks, "ah, the sweet sound of children" (he missed this so much)

Edrahil, the actual competent one, who teaches the twins fencing and archery and horseriding, but also trains them to sneak frogs in finrod's bed (forget what i said about competency)

Yurro and Tyalmo (from finrod's ten) who are very happy to introduce twins to the art of pranks (finrod's gonna get bullied so much)

The rest of the Ten, who on different levels adopt titles of funky uncles & aunts (finrod's gonna get bullied so. much.)

oops, got myself thinking again about byan having a little hoard of weird and random trinkets and shiny things hidden away under their bed in the same way that some cats have collections of bottle caps under furniture.

like, none of it is particularly meaningful and they don't wear any of the jewelry that's under there, but they like to pull it all out once in a while to look at and are always adding more

ive made bead bracelets in the past but none that were proper 'kandi' per se, but im very pleased to announce i have made my first pieces of kandi ever :3!!!

the barbie heart comes from a cheap necklace that was a pack in with a princess charm school book, and the seal one says "ex•seal•ent"

[Image ID: A picture of 2 kandi bead bracelets on a flat surface. It was taken with flash on, which makes the colors brighter and pop more. The left kandi is made up of light pink and neon hot pink pony beads in a repeating pattern, with fake pearl beads between every 3 pony beads. The back of the kandi ends in a transparent pink bead to match the centerpiece of the kandi, which is a slightly oversized glittery pink heart faceted like a gem, with the Barbie head logo inside. The right kandi is made up of yellow and neon green pony beads in a repeating pattern for half the length. The back half has black cube beads with neon letters that read "EXSEALENT", with 'SEAL' being in neon green letters and the rest of the letters being neon yellow. There are tiny metal beads between 'EX', 'SEAL', and 'ENT', and the letter beads are separated from the pony beads by green star-shaped clay beads with yellow happy faces on them. The centerpiece of the kandi is a large green seal-shaped bead. End ID]

@box-of-characters asked: lillias: *puts chin in hands* tell me about the ghost amulet

' --- necklace , actually . ' though , calling it an amulet at first sure did work in grabbing this guy's attention , didn't it ? ' used to be cursed . whoever put it on could never take it off , had a ghost attached to it , only someone else breaking the necklace could free its wearer , yada-yada ... '

bizarre yet utterly typical , if only in the way that he masks it . the great phantom thief coolly lounging against the other's counter wasn't about to start telling reciting every line of the tragic love story behind the broken treasure when such a thing was close to even his heart .

' i'll tell you the rest , free of charge --- but only if you buy the necklace . it's fine , put it out front . there's hardly enough magic left in it anymore to cause any trouble , and it makes for a nice antique . sell it off for double to someone looking for a nice gift . '

after all , didn't it deserve another tale of true love and happiness , too ? polished and evidently expertly-maintained beyond its phenomenal make , there was sure to be someone who still thought the aging masterpiece and its agate centerpiece beautiful and more than worthy of becoming a gift , no matter the old wound of a shattered decorative wing .
