O, kapı pencere açmaktan.. üstüne çatı, gönlüne yuva olmaktan vazgeçer.. senin gidecek bir yerin yoktur, bırakamazsın.
Ama nihayetin de toprak bekler, borcun borçtur! Nefeslik senedin günü geldiğin de son kuruşuna kadar alır canından, ben ödemiyorum diyen yoktur.
Altan da Adem gibi çıplak doğdu, çıplak oldu hep hakikatine. Bazen İlhan oldu, kapıldı nefsinin emanetine. İki adı bir şair oldu, boğuldu fikrinin denizlerin de. O zaman güneşe dokunur oldu, işte bu vakti toprak bekler.
İnsanın ruhunu nefsi yer içer. Gövdeni hayatta tutan budur. Ayakta oluşun bir sebebi var! Boş bırakma zihinini mutlaka doldur. Yeniden doğuşa inandıysan; sönmeden közünü özüne doldur.
Altan İlhan Arslan

Adem Karakaş ( he/him ) is a cisgender man, thirty-six year old actor who has been living in Moorbrooke for two weeks. They were born on December 9th and right now, they are currently residing in Primrose Avenue. It has been said that they look suspiciously like İlhan Şen and if they had to choose a song to describe themselves, they would choose Starboy by The Weeknd.
Details:
Adem was born in Moorbrooke, the first child of Kamile and Nadir, Turkish ex-pats who’d immigrated to the US during their early childhood and teenage years respectively. 
His childhood was normal enough. It consisted of school and odd jobs. The only difference between Adem and other children was that periodically, he’d book small jobs modeling for local brands or acting in commercials.
His big break came during HS when he booked a nationwide modeling gig.
After graduating from HS, Adem moved to LA in order to pursue modeling and acting full time. He never planned to see Moorbrooke again.
For some time, his career was on the up and up. He’d managed to book small cameo roles upon first moving. Those roles and the connections they brought, soon led to bigger roles namely speaking roles on soap operas.
In his mid-twenties, Adem booked his biggest role to date -- the lead in a supernatural drama.
The show lasted for five years.
It was during this time that Adem met his wife. She’d started as a guest role on their show and had soon picked up a recurring role. Their romance burned hot and fast.
Looking back, getting married was probably the worse decision they could’ve made. Their growing careers was the cause of serious tension between the two.
Just under a year ago, the two decided to get divorced. While the most logical decision given how chaotic their relationship was, the decision did not bring Adem any peace or happiness. Instead, it led to a months long bender in which Adem ended up losing a role he’d worked hard for (he’d been showing up late, not remembering his lines, etc).
In order to rehab his reputation and his career, his PR team suggested that Adem take some time to reconnect with who he is. Which is why he’s back in Moorbrooke -- his childhood home, the place he thought he’d long outgrown.
Potential Connections:
childhood friends
folks he’s lost touch with
fans
people who hate him because of characters he’s played
someone he’s angered for some reason
his ex wife maybe (may post a wc)
any and everything

Today on the spring equinox our new album 'Never The Same Way Twice' makes it's way into the World. The album is a collection of previously unreleased recordings to mark twenty years since the release of our self-titled debut album. Two decades is a long time and the over-riding emotion I have for this album is one of gratitude, to those who have supported our music and everyone that has taken time to listen. In particular I am so very grateful to all the amazing musicians who have given their time and talents to make The Memory Band what is is, I am forever in their debt. There is not the space to thank everyone who has been part of the band but the people who perform on this album are as follows: John Andrews, Liam Bailey, Liza Bec, Alex Bonney, Helene Bradley, Olie Brice, Jonny Bridgwood, Findlay Brown, Dee Byrne, Hannah Caughlin, Olivia Chaney, Howard Cottle, Al Doyle, Sam Genders, Adem Ilhan, Lisa Knapp, Jennymay Logan, Simon Lord, Paul McGee, Rhys Morgan, Tom Page, Polly Paulusma, Jeremy Radway, Lucy Railton, Jess Roberts, Quinta, Sarah Scutt, Rob Spriggs, Serafina Steer, Alexis Taylor, Fred Thomas, Jon Thorne and Nancy Wallace.

Avenue 5 season 2 is finally here, breathing new life into the HBO sci-fi comedy that first hit screens in 2020. Starring Hugh Laurie and Josh Gad, the series is set on a luxury tourist spacecraft that was diverted off-course, turning an eight-week cruise into an eight-year journey.

I may have died and gone to music heaven. Where else can you hear anything as sublime as this new version of RYD’s Alter? The gifted Londoner offers up an altered Alter produced by Adem Ilhan that floats us to cloud nine with gentle acoustics, tender beats, and angelic vocals. This meditative dreamscape is sweet nectar to my ears and a nourishing soup for the soul. The track was recorded for Roundhouse Rising Sounds 2017, which gives emerging artists aged 18-25 the opportunity to record their music with the UK’s best producers.

via Politics – FiveThirtyEight
In 2018, now-Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Pressley shocked the political world by unseating 20-year incumbents in their Democratic primaries. And this year, the trend continued with progressives Marie Newman, Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush winning their own upsets against long-serving congressmen.1
Thanks to an increasingly powerful progressive campaign apparatus, there’s no question that the left is now an established player in the Democratic Party. But is it strong enough to rival the political muscle of the party establishment?
To find out, FiveThirtyEight has once again tracked hundreds of endorsements in every Senate, House and governor primary completed so far this year (through Aug. 18). We looked at the win-loss records of the endorsees of eight key Democratic influencers: progressive groups Indivisible, Justice Democrats, Our Revolution and the Progressive Change Campaign Committee; progressive figures Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders; and two arms of the national Democratic Party, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.2 The result is the most complete picture yet of which wing of the party is doing better at the ballot box.
And while the progressive upsets may have grabbed all the headlines, the numbers say the party establishment is still king of the hill. Of the 217 Democratic incumbents who ran in the primaries we analyzed, 214 won or advanced to the general election.3 Granted, that includes 19 incumbents — such as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Katie Porter, Rashida Tlaib and Ocasio-Cortez herself — who were supported by one or more of the six progressive endorsers we’re tracking. But in the 17 primaries where progressives (candidates endorsed by at least one of these six entities) went up against an incumbent, the progressive-backed candidate lost 14 times. (Newman, Bowman and Bush were the only exceptions.)

However, the party establishment had even more success: 30 of the 31 candidates (97 percent) whom the DSCC and DCCC supported in incumbent-less primaries advanced to the general election. The only exception was Senate candidate James Mackler in Tennessee. Notably, Mackler was the first DSCC-endorsed candidate to lose a primary since 2010.5

These findings — that Democratic voters are generally voting for establishment candidates over insurgents — match what we saw in 2018. But that doesn’t mean progressive groups haven’t made progress in the last two years. They’ve just changed their strategy. Instead of endorsing dozens of candidates like they did in 2018, progressive groups are picking their battles more carefully. For instance, Justice Democrats has endorsed just three candidates in incumbent-less primaries this year, but two of them won.
Endorsing fewer candidates is part of a longer-term approach as the group’s political apparatus has grown more sophisticated. As Alexandra Rojas, executive director of Justice Democrats, told HuffPost, “We’ve been intentional about building infrastructure and an ecosystem that can take on decades worth of the establishment’s.” This means withholding support from candidates whose values may match the organization’s but who are running in districts where challengers face long odds or where unseating the incumbent in a primary could hand the seat to the GOP in the general.
Certain progressive endorsers are also having more success this cycle. Sanders has a 75 percent win rate in incumbent-less primaries so far this cycle (6 for 8), up from 56 percent (5 for 9) around this point in 2018. And the PCCC has an 83 percent win rate (10 for 12), whereas two years ago it was 67 percent (10 for 15). This could reflect that these endorsers (and their ideas) enjoy more clout in 2020 than they did in 2018 — or it could just mean they’ve become savvier in whom they endorse.
All told, the progressive group with the best win rate so far in primaries without an incumbent is Indivisible; they’ve endorsed 10 candidates in those races, and nine of them have advanced. Our Revolution has the worst win rate of the progressive endorsers we looked at, but they’ve also backed more candidates than the other groups; of the 14 candidates they endorsed, five have advanced to the general. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Courage for Change PAC has a win rate of 50 percent (4 for 8).
Which progressive endorser has the best record?

Of course, part of the difficulty here is that these groups are also endorsing candidates who are challenging incumbents, and incumbency, while not necessarily as potent as it once was, is still a pretty powerful force in American politics.6 However, some groups we analyzed were willing to take the risk. In fact, Justice Democrats endorsed more candidates running against incumbents (five) than they did candidates in primaries without incumbents (three), reflecting their status as one of the groups most urgently insisting upon drastic change in the halls of Congress. And, notably, their challengers won three of those races against incumbents — an extremely impressive win rate considering how rarely incumbents lose overall.
Given Justice Democrats’ success this cycle, Democratic incumbents should probably be expecting more progressive challengers in 2022: After the 2018 midterms and the success of candidates like Ocasio-Cortez and Pressley, liberal groups made clear their intention to continue to target incumbent Democrats whose records hadn’t kept pace with their districts’ politics, especially in places where demographic changes favored progressives. Notably, this was Newman’s second challenge against incumbent Rep. Dan Lipinski in Illinois’s 3rd District — in 2018, Lipinski won by about 2,000 votes. So, long term, the strategy of challenging incumbents could pay dividends for the left.
