Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia !

With its 142-year history of torture, isolation, disease, murder and madness, the crumbling penitentiary is often viewed as haunted.

Obi wan anakin and ahsoka family soap blurb

So i just rewatched one of @zengers star wars ai videos on youtube (which i can only highly recommend they're the best) and heard obi wan calling anakin and ahsoka 'kids'. And this combined with their relationship what was always big bro little sister and their tired single dad i had an idea of soap about obi wan ahsoka and anakin and their daily life:

Anakin and ahsoka being the kids, anakin the older broher and ahsoka the younger sister and obi wan is their tired single dad raising them (also the mom role with their mom satine already passed away who had loved her beloved kids and husband uncondicionally and was so fun and warm and sweet and is missed every day so badly) and r2 d2 being their pet which dad never wanted but the kids found it lost without a home and begged him that they please could keep it an that they would ofc take care of it (obi dad has to take it on walks and feed it and we know it) but in the end he still loves it aswell. Yoda being their unhinged great grandvather already in retirement home telling dirty jokes at the dinner table on thanksgiving and qui gon being their grandfather living nearby teaching them dumb shit joining them on their stupid adventures. Mace windu being their neighbour who hates kids but especially them two who always destroy his peace and quite, windows and lawn. Yelling over the fence to kenobi to get his fucking brood in control while they always play pranks on him all the time. Padme being anakins girlfriend, rex their cousin and cody, quinlan and obi single dad besties, a bros since childhood trio.

Them (the kids and the dad bros) spreading chaos wherever they go. Kids making the dumbest decisions and going on the stupidest adventures together every day, going on their dads very last nerve and not listening to him most of the time. Them accidently almost blowing up the entire city by trying to get him the best gift for fathers day/ his birthday (they probably forgot it in the first place and gotta apologice) trying to show him how much they love and appreciate him and how sorry they are. They would do everything for him and love him uncondicionally. Obi dad sometimes even joining them on their dumb adventures or himself making the stupid decicions and them experiencing all kinds of chaotic days in normal day to day life.

Episodes where the dad bestie trio and all their kids together go on roadtrips camping and get lost and then get chased by a moose through the woods while some funny song playing the background. Or a funny day trip and then at the drive home anakin would be like "...and that was so funny you should have heard that loud splash when i threw her into the fountain, she was so mad tho. But it was so worth it cause it was sooo funny" "Well certainly not for your poor, soaking wet sister" "oh by the way while we are talking about her....where is she?" "What do you mean anakin? She's right th..." and obi dad then turning blank white in the face after looking in the backmirror while driving realising they had forgotten her in the hotel lobby (still dripping wet) and him than doing a 360. turn weels screaching and yeeting of to get her. Her pouting all the way home and obi wan apologizing the whole time "dear i'm so sorry i don't know how that could have happen your brother was going on my nerves with the pool animal and" and anakin just laughing.

Then in the end of the episodes they'd be sitting on the couch in the living room like "dad you know that we love you so much thank you for being the best of all dads" and these were the rare moments they'd be so serious and he'd be like "aw kids even tho you k*ll my very last nerve every day of course i love you guys too more than everything and i could never imagine my life without you two in it" "and r2" "yeah ofc and r2" and then after a cute warm cuddle anakin would say something like "even tho you're old as f*ck" and crack the moment with the invicible audience laughing and obi dad shaking his head sighing and laughing and then the episode ends.

Just their daily life that would be an awesome, fantastic family comedy soap.

Any show title ideas anyone?

In 2020 (a little) and in 2016 (a lot), everyone (including us) kept falling victim to the notion that Trump was playing 3-D chess, and that there was some deep, strategic plan to the crazy things he said and did. It turns out there was no 3-D chess in 2016, or in 2020, and we don't know why anything would be different now. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, and sometimes an unhinged racist is just an unhinged racist.

NEW FROM FINISHING LINE PRESS: The Soul Mate Poems by Kristine Hartvigsen

On SALE now! Pre-order Price Guarantee: https://www.finishinglinepress.com/product/the-soul-mate-poems-by-kristine-hartvigsen/

A former journalist and magazine editor, Kristine Hartvigsen works in marketing at Piedmont Technical College in Greenwood, South Carolina. A divorced, empty-nester, she has plenty of time to ponder — and casually quantify — her many soul mates to date. This is her second published #poetry collection.

PRAISE FOR The Soul Mate Poems by Kristine Hartvigsen

You may know someone in this book. In fact, you might be in this book. The men—and women—who fill this book are crushes and soulmates and midlife besties and the occasional fellow you’d risk a morning walk of shame for. It’s all numbers, not names, and just enough detail to make you wonder. A boy old enough for a Stoli and a man who cooks by ear, they’re both here. A catalogue of crushes, a natural history of noticing, these are portrait poems, some poignant, some punchy, some impossible, all beads strung on a line of prose reflections that make you smile to think about your own secret history.

–Ed Madden is a professor of English at the University of South Carolina and served as Poet Laureate for the City of Columbia from 2015 to 2022.

Kristine Hartvigsen‘s poems, part micro-memoir, part lyric, part palm “on the curve where hip meets buttock,” ultimately choose us. We never forget soul mates and how the “empty chalice echo truths” in a world of sensation, disappointment, and joy.” These poems arouse expectancy, explore attraction’s belonging, and peer across the room with courage and heart. You’ll find yourself on the list.

–Tim Conroy, author of Theologies of Terrain (2017, Muddy Ford Press Laureate Series) and founding board member of the Pat Conroy Literary Center

Kristine Hartvigsen‘s new book is a delight. Her poems (and stories) take the reader on a poetic ride through her life of love and adventure. It covers the gambit of her creative life, her love of poetry and music, and introduces the reader to friends past and present. The Soul Mate Poems are not to be missed.

–Jane Zenger, author of Night Bloomer (2022, Muddy Ford Press Laureate Series).

Kristine Hartvigsen‘s The Soul Mate Poems is a must read for lonely hearts who want to learn how to recognize their soul mate at a dog park or in a checkout line at Big Lots. Kristine says what many won’t. There is no 1 in 3 billion soul mates that you need to find to be happy. If you know Kristine, buy this book and see if you made her list.

–Al Black, author of I Only Left For Tea (2014, Muddy Ford Press) and Man With Two Shadows (2018, Muddy Ford Press), and he was named Columbia’s Literary Artist of the Year by Jasper Magazine in ____.

It is very clear at this point that about 40% of the electorate is going to vote for Trump, no matter what, either because he's the Dear Leader or because voting for anyone with a (D) after their name is anathema. It is also very clear at this point that about 40% of the electorate is going to vote for Biden, no matter what, either because they like him or because he's the only way to stop Trump. It's the other 20% or so who will decide the election, and thus far, that segment of the electorate really hasn't budged. Is it because they are really and truly committed to a third-party candidate, like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.? Because they are not paying attention? Because they are holding out hope that another option will present itself? Probably all of the above, and more.
