#no surrender

[pratchettquotes]

"They're coming closer again," said War.

THEN WE WILL DO WHAT WE CAN.

"Four swords against an army? That'll never work!"

YOU THOUGHT IT MIGHT A FEW MOMENTS AGO. WHO IS TALKING FOR YOU NOW? HUMANS HAVE ALWAYS FACED US AND THEY HAVE NOT SURRENDERED.

"Well, yes," said Pestilence. "But with us they could always hope for a remission."

"Or a sudden truce," said War.

"Or--" Famine began, and hesitated, and said finally: "A shower of fish?" He looked at their expressions. "That actually happened once," he added defiantly.

IN ORDER TO HAVE A CHANGE OF FORTUNE AT THE LAST MINUTE YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR FORTUNE TO THE LAST MINUTE, said Death. WE MUST DO WHAT WE CAN.

"And if that doesn't work?" said Pestilence. [...]

THEN WE DID WHAT WE COULD, he said, UNTIL WE COULD NOT.

Okay, but really, apropos of that whole The Mental Illness Doesn’t End When You Start Being Able To Perform Normality Again post I reblogged a bit ago - this is such peak Hob Gadling mood, actually.  I love it and think it is good and right when people write his optimism as defiance, not just ‘he’s a golden retriever shaped like a human.’  It’s not that he told Death to fuck off once when he was drunk, it’s that he chooses life every. single. day.  He chooses the world every day. 

He has so much to mourn and so many regrets and yet, he moves forward and is curious about the future.  Curious enough to keep living.

An incomplete list of Judas Priest songs I associate with Pokémon:

Breaking the Law: Quax, Spriggie, the Chars, Luna, Knight, Blueberry and Cherry, my aces in Scarlet and Violet. Usually at the same time

United: the same but usually only one quartet at at time. Also Quax and Spriggie are more in charge there (they sing the “so give me hope!” lines plus the first half of the quiet chorus at the end then the Chars join in for the second half of the quiet chorus and then the Paradoxes come in after that)

Grinder (I’ll get to songs that aren’t on British Steel eventually I swear): Quaquaval, especially Quax. It doesn’t help that there seem to be bird metaphors in the song

Metal Gods (I swear they’re not all from British Steel): Iron Valiant and Iron Leaves, especially Knight and Cherry

Living After Midnight (dammit another British Steel song I’m really bad at this): Quax and Spriggie

You Don’t Have to Be Old to Be Wise (no comment): Char the Armarouge and Cherry

Love Bites (finally one that isn’t from British Steel): Spriggie, with Char (the Ceruledge) as his victim (yes I feel bad about this being a straight ship when this is a Judas Priest song. I’m very sorry. If it helps, I’m sure Spriggie would do the same to Quax if he could (though I’ve been imagining he does it to Char to try and cheer her up and obviously Quax isn’t known for being an edgy sword knight))

Delivering the Goods: Spriggie and Cherry. It’s the stuff about stealing hearts

Riding On the Wind: the Proto Beasts and Neo Swords

No Surrender: as of yesterday, Armarouge and Ceruledge, especially the Chars

Rock Hard, Ride Free, Freewheel Burning, Hell Bent for Leather, Delivering the Goods (again) and as of yesterday Rapid Fire (another song off British Steel?): Gouging Fire and Iron Boulder (I associate Delivering the Goods more with Spriggie and Cherry)

Bonus: I don’t really associate it with a Pokémon (well, I associate the first line with Iron Crown because of another song I associate with the Proto Beasts and Neo Swords) but I associate the song Some Heads Are Gonna Roll with Falcon even though it’s a song about a corrupt government (I think), not having godly powers you don’t know how to control

I honestly don’t know #breaking the law #united #grinder #metal gods #living after midnight #you don’t have to be old to be wise #love bites #delivering the goods #riding on the wind #no surrender #rock hard ride free #freewheel burning #hell bent for leather #rapid fire #some heads are gonna roll #quaquaval #meowscarada #armarouge #ceruledge #roaring moon #iron valiant #walking wake #iron leaves #gouging fire #iron boulder #proto beasts #neo swords #captain falcon

No Surrender. Bruce Springsteen: My story. I wanted to understand in order to free myself of its most damaging influences, its malevolent forces

No Surrender (Live at Meadowlands Arena, E. Rutherford, NJ - August 1984)

"There's a solo version of 'No Surrender', Bruce said, 'I don't think we have room for it.' I said, 'Bruce, this solo version of "No Surrender" has literally saved me from depression and self-contempt on more days than I choose to tell you about - just from putting it on and listening to it.' It's a beautiful, highly particular, and stirring version of a song that basically just gets lost in the shuffle on Born in the U.S.A." (Chuck Plotkin / Bruce Springsteen / Dave Marsh)

Bruce Springsteen: “I fought my whole life, studied, played, worked, because I wanted to hear and know the whole story. My story. Our story. And understand as much of it as I could. I wanted to understand in order to free myself of its most damaging influences, its malevolent forces, to celebrate and honor its beauty, its power. And to be able to tell it well to my friends, my family, and to you. I don’t know if I’ve done that, and the devil is always just a day away, but I know this was my young promise to myself, to you. This, I pursued as my service. This, I presented as my long and noisy prayer, my magic trick. Hoping it would rock your very soul and then pass on, its spirit rendered, to be read, heard, sung and altered by you and your blood, that it might strengthen and help make sense of your story. Go tell it.”

#OTD in 2014 – Death of loyalist politician and Protestant religious leader, Ian Paisley.

The career of the Rev Ian Paisley, who has died aged 88, arced from origins as fiery preacher and street agitator, through decades when his harassment helped undermine mainstream unionist leaders who attempted compromise with nationalists. But aged 81 he won praise inside and outside Ireland and made global headlines for sharing the top post in a peacetime Stormont with former IRA leader Martin…

Well at least I know that my Meganium raid soundtrack (Breaking the Law, No Surrender and Love Bites) is long enough to last me an entire raid (it ended about the same time Meganium kicked me out. My defender never fainted because I made sure to spam Iron Defense)
