[Temp Post]

Quick update to all the lovely people who follow. I’m still alive but going through the grind in my doctorate program right now and haven’t had a lot of time to shoot and edit. My camera’s been collecting a bit of dust but I have plenty more images to post once I get the time again (T-minus 1 month before the end of my didactics!). But I got to take out my camera for a few pics during my medical mission trip to the DR so I’m excited to have some new stuff to share down the line but here’s some quick edits from the trip.

is it possible to read green lanterns as a cult like group?

kinda? as always it depends on the writers and what they want to do with the story, the parallax arc was going in that direction with the guardians being very strict with hal and ordering him around without giving anything to help him, using him for their cause, and there are several stories that follow the guardians hiding a lot and using the lanterns to protect them, or with hal and ollie's story showing a more controlling side to the glc, or in the early GL 1990 where they force hal for a year in space, even john and guy being told to do the job after hal or the whole crisis thing with guy

but for the most part of what i've read of the green lantern 1960 (which isn't everything), it doesn't really veer into the extreme, that comes later on. the guardians do somewhat overview them but they're given a lot of freedom to do whatever they want, they offer the ring but don't force it on people, they do offer teaching and guidance when asked to but the lanterns remain relatively free of their actions. that's why i use spiritual rather than religious because the guardians aren't seen as gods or prophets of a religion, they're old so they're wise and thus of good advice but they don't interfere that much with the lanterns or force beliefs on them, they just pick people who want to do good and who will gravitate toward similar morals. i mean, sinestro was allowed to go full totalitarian rule on korugar without the guardian noticing, and he said things and acted in ways that clashed with a lot of lanterns when he was still in

i'd argue that it's more cult-like in their current copaganda era (post rebirth, what a surprise) where any questions regarding the guardians' actions are seen as an offense and to be corrected, something that shouldn't happen, having blind faith in them and doing whatever they're told to do is rewarded, when they're being sent in situations to act out the guardians' authority instead of going there willingly as the early comics and choosing their actions themselves

#there was a post going around about how in modern comics GL arc should be about leaving it because of the moral implication #which yeah. given the state of the current glc its very similar to our law enforcing groups which. ac ab #but back then i dont think it holds true #idk maybe im biased if so feel free to discuss that with me #but i feel im being fair with this here. im not saying its perfect but it's less authoritarian than what we have now #the guardians would just chill together until a lantern went to ask a question. they rarely sought them at first #and the most they'd say was 'do good'#idk i know ive been vocal about hating the law enforcing direction the glc progressively took especially compared to the early stuff #where its more humanitarian (?) and selfless #even the story written wouldn't ask for law or retribution it was often small missions about helping ppl #anyway im rambling <3 hope this make sense #asks #anon #glc

so my little brother is going back to Ukraine again today

in March he bought a mini bus and he and his friend went over to help however they could

they have evacuated families, rescued animals, delivered supplies, etc

I just wanted to share this online, so if anyone wants to help out in anyway they could show a bit of support

Pete keeps saying money goes a really long way there, so any donations really helps

but just sharing what he's up to really helps too

Zionists, worse than Nazis regarding diplomacy:

International diplomacy and embassies or their equivalents have been able to work quietly for thousands of years without fear of reprisals. Not even Adolf Hitler — who seems to be the watermark for bad behaviour these days — ever sunk so low in terms of international relations and diplomacy. (...)

What do you think would happen if, say, Russia bombed a US embassy in Europe?

Unsung Heroes of History: A Film Review of 'One Life'

The present often seems like the direct outcome of our past, a tapestry we refer to as history. Films about World War II always leave me pondering the depths of human cruelty—how could one individual inflict such profound suffering on another simply because of differences in belief, religion, ethnicity, or culture? This reflection prompts a critical examination of our progress as a society. Have…

From the Freedom Flotilla, April 27 2024:

On Thursday afternoon, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition was contacted by the Guinea Bissau International Ships Registry (GBISR), requesting an inspection of our lead ship – Akdenez. This was a highly unusual request as our ship had already passed all required inspections; nevertheless, we agreed. The inspector arrived on Thursday evening. On Friday afternoon, before the inspection was completed, the GBISR, in a blatantly political move, informed the Freedom Flotilla Coalition that it had withdrawn the Guinea Bissau flag from two of the Freedom Flotilla’s ships, one of which is our cargo ship, already loaded with over 5000 tons of life-saving aid for the Palestinians of Gaza. In its communication informing us of this cancelation, the GBISR made specific reference to our planned mission to Gaza. It also made several extraordinary requests for information, including confirmation of the ships’ destination, any potential additional port calls, and the discharge port for humanitarian aid and estimated arrival dates and times. It further demanded a formal letter explicitly approving the transportation of humanitarian aid and a complete manifest of the cargo. Again, this is a highly unusual move from a flagging authority. Normally, national flagging authorities concern themselves only with safety and related standards on vessels bearing their flag, and are not concerned with the destination, route, cargo manifests or the nature of a specific voyage. Just like when you register your car, the authorities don’t require you to detail to them every place you are going to go with the car. Sadly, Guinea-Bissau has allowed itself to become complicit in Israel’s deliberate starvation, illegal siege and genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. Israel is showing the world the extent to which it will go to deny Palestinians the aid they need to stay alive, in direct contravention of International Humanitarian Law, UN Security Council resolutions, and two orders of the International Court of Justice. [...] without a flag, we cannot sail. But, this is not the end. Israel cannot and will not crush our resolve to break its illegal siege and reach the people of Gaza. The people of Gaza and all of Palestine remain steadfast under the most horrific, unimaginable conditions. We take strength from their incredible, inexplicable ability to maintain their humanity, dignity and hope when the world has given them no reason to do so. It is our responsibility to keep that hope alive. WE WILL SAIL.

The Freedom Flotilla, which was set to depart from Turkey on the 27th of April with 5000 tons of life-saving aid, has now been delayed because Israel and the United States has pressured Guinea Bissau to withdraw its flag from the Flotilla's lead ship.

Seeing as how their tactics worked on Guinea Bissau, organizers now fear that Israel and the US will exert the same pressure on whichever country the Freedom Flotilla attempt to register their ship under next.

To help the Freedom Flotilla reach Gaza, please keep an eye out for further updates from the organizers. Right now, as of April 27th, they're asking people to help boost their visibility, and to donate to their member campaigns.

For more info, see their webpage.

Biden will direct the U.S. military to undertake the mission alongside allies and humanitarian partners, a senior administration official said. The project will take “a number of weeks to plan and execute” and will involve forces already in the region or that will be there soon. Senior administration officials said the project will not require any U.S. boots on the ground in Gaza. Instead, the plan involves U.S. personnel on military vessels offshore who will not be required to go ashore to install the port. Initial shipments of supplies would come via Cyprus, enabled by the U.S. military and partners. Officials said the U.S. would work with the United Nations and other humanitarian partners to distribute aid across Gaza once it reaches the port.

There are thousands of aid trucks sitting at the Egyptian border that could be allowed in instead of this ridiculous convoluted plan which means

This is an excuse to officially send in US troops into Gaza where they will help the IDF continue their genocide in the name of aiding Palestinians

"The project will take “a number of weeks to plan and execute”" meaning there is no intention of ending the genocide any time soon

The last part is most important and the one that should scare us the most given the already horrific conditions of Northern Gaza
