SAINT OF THE DAY (March 20)

Not much is known about the life of Saint Herbert of Derwentwater, other than he was a hermit of England and a good friend of St. Cuthbert.

Herbert was an Anglo-Saxon priest and lived as a recluse on an island in Lake Derwentwater, England, which later became St. Herbert’s in his honor.

Herbert had asked to die on the same day (20 March 687) as his dear friend St. Cuthbert, and God granted Him the fulfillment of that desire.

His friendship with St. Cuthbert is explored in a poem by William Wordsworth (7 April 1770 – 23 April 1850).

The Process of Frank Herbert writing the Dune series (from my very vague memory of a video essay).

Franklin Patrick Herbert Jr. watches Lawrence Of Arabia (1962).

It becomes his problematic fave, and he writes fanficion; “Lawrence of Arabia IN SPAAAAAACCEEE.”

Franklin needs money and decides to send his fanfiction to a publisher. The book becomes an unexpected hit.

He wants to rewrite Dune to repair the ethical problems of his favourite movie, but the publishers tell Herbert that a rewrite or a clone will be seen as a lazy cash grab that would lose them trust.

UH OH! RENT IS DUE!!! If he wants to pay rent and eat a nice dinner, Frankie better write a sequel!

Sequel 1; The story continues, but the supporting characters pine for a better version of their world by vocalising the problems of the MC’s colonialism.

The audience doesn't get it. Maybe it’s too subtle.

Sequel 2: The MC commits major atrocities, including a horrific genocide. He’s not a god or a messiah. He’s just another worthless cog in the machine of colonialism.

The audience feels bad that their hero is seen as a worthless cog. Maybe he just needs Jesus. That way, he can make up for the irreversible loss of millions of lives! God finds a way.

RENT IS DUE

Sequel 3: The MC has a son to carry on his legacy. The son loathes him. He channels his inner cool rebel, angsty Sasuke energy to tell the audience of children that “pot is cool, genocide drools!”

The audience is vaguely offended that Sasuke said pot is cool and still thinks genocide is okay. Or at the very least, the colonialism was okay in the circumstances of the Dune universe.

Patrick is out of patience.

Sequel 4: Sasuke huffs all the pot in the universe and becomes the king god of worms. With his infinite wisdom, he writes a Martin Luther style manifesto of every bad thing his father did. Point for point, sin for sin. The manifesto is within the novel itself and is roughly 97.8% of its reading. Repeated throughout the novel and manifesto and the novel itself is “Colonialism and genocide is NEVER okay. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE , IN ANY WORLD , IT IS N E V E R OKAY.”

The audience’s main take away is that the king god of worms is cool.

Herb is out of pot to keep the Jesus in him. He is so tired of trying to just F I X these people. He channels every ounce of energy he has left to figuring out a concrete way to explain to his audience how colonialism and genocide is bad. In his late middle-aged life, it’s the only way he can stop himself from picking up a phone book to find and throttle some nerds.

Sequel 5: Out of the sand and ether, Sasuke Luther King God of Worm’s long-lost never mentioned before normal human descendant appears. She walks up to the audience, hold their eyelids open, stares directly at them within a cm of distance from her own, and says; “Colonialsim bad. Genoicide is a bad. Do not do. Is bad. Alway. O.k.?”

The remaining audience says. “ye. ok.”

Franklin Patrick Herbert Junior finally has a win and dies promptly on the spot from exhaustion at the ancient age of 65.

That’s just my guess, though. Most of what I know about Dune is from Jack Saint's video and a 10-second glance on Wikipedia.

I am so so so glad we all universally agree Herbert West is trans, not a single thing he does would make sense if he was cis.

#i. talk #<< is a herbert west kinnie #but fr. he embodies the trans experience to me. #obsession with one upping god. interest in medical sciences. weird fuckass romance with his clueless roomie. #also loves neon green. herb is the patron saint of transmascness #re animator #herbert west

“She stills all storms- Her eyes kill our enemies, And torment the unbelievers. From the spires of Tuono Where dawnlight strikes And clear water runs, You see her shadow. In the shining summer heat She serves us bread and milk- Cool, fragrant with spices. Her eyes melt our enemies, Torment our oppressors And pierce all mysteries. She is Alia. . . Alia. . . Alia. . .”

Feeling a Cool Breeze As I Stand on the Shores of Herbert Lake (Banff National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A setting looking to the south while taking in views across lake waters to more distant shores with evergreens and then snowcapped peaks of the Bow Range with Fairview Mountain, Mount Aberdeen, Mount Temple, and Little Temple (based on the PeakVisor app on my iPhone). What drew me into this view was the layered look with the lake waters, then evergreen forest, and then finally the mountain peaks.
