“Rumpled, tattered, unkempt, hirsute, Smith defies the rules of femininity. Soulful, haggard and emaciated yet raffish, swaggering and seductive, she is mad saint, ephebe, dandy and troubadour, a complex woman alone and outward bound for culture war.” Camille Paglia on Patti Smith.
Born on this day: fierce high priestess of punk poetry, beatnik earth mother, shamanistic visionary, musician, playwright, role model, personification of jolie laide androgyny and the woman Salvador Dali once likened to “a gothic crow” – Patti Smith (Patricia Lee Smith, 30 December 1946). No one asked, but my favourite Patti Smith song is "Pissing in a River” (followed by “Dancing Barefoot”). Pictured: portrait by Lynn Goldsmith.

This Shouldn't Be as Relatable as It Is
"With the bogey of Sunday rates of pay, the LMS Northern Division ran those Sunday services on a veritable shoestring. Only Glasgow Central station was used, and one locomotive depot, Polmadie. Signal boxes were switched out wherever possible. From Paisley to Kilwinning, there was no box open except Glengarnock No 2, which was kept open for the ironworks. Staffs at stations were the minimum.
In June 1927 the LMS took a really daring decision, advertising a Sunday Excursion from Glasgow to Portpatrick on 18 June from Central station. The G&SW men had been complaining that they were getting no share of the Sunday jobs, so authority said to Corkerhill, 'Here you are. Run this excursion to Portpatrick. Put on two of the heaviest engines which are permitted, and give the job to your two senior passenger men.' So Corkerhill chose two big-boilered Manson 4-4-0s, Nos 14374 (ex-346, ex-157) and 14261 (ex-389, ex-259), of the 18 and 240 classes respectively. They gave them to the two oldest drivers, Sanny Rowan and Dick Gaw, who had been leading a quiet life on the 'old men's jobs'. They did not know the road into Central, but they were told to proceed to West Street and they would get a conductor from there. So they set off from Corkerhill tender-first, and with a big of juggling got to West Street. No conductor there. 'Go on. He's at Larkfield,' said the signalman, 'It's not far.' So they got down to Larkfield, and of course landed in Central nose first! They had to come back out to Eglintgon Street to turn. They got back in to find a train of eleven corridors and a Pullman diner, Helen Macgregor, 366 tons tare and filling rapidly.
They got away eight minutes late and sat for 15 minutes at Paisley waiting on the Largs train clearing Glengarnock. By the time the train left Paisley it was estimated that there were 950 passengers aboard. They called at Irvine, Troon and Prestwick, with a draw-up at each to let all the train get to the platforms. At Ayr, both engines took water. By this time the train was packed. There was an extra stop to pick up a party from Kilkerran. At Girvan both locomotives took water again. Webster was guard and he came forward at Girvan grumbling about the delay. Dick Gaw, flourishing his oil can, chased him up the platform, threatening to knock the bluidy heid off him.
Now came the problem. The scheduled top load for each of those engines, Girvan to Pinmore, was 140 tons, and they had 366! No assistance was available. How they got up, I shall never know. I think the regulators must have been twice round. Stop at Pinmore — another party to lift — missed the tablet at New Luce and had to stop and run back for it, arriving 80 minutes late Stranraer. They then took the whole train down to Portpatrick, rounded it (on a loop which held, I think, eight coaches) and hauled the whole lot back up to Stranraer, tender-first. At Stranraer there was no one on duty except a signalman. They had to turn, water and coal both engines; two big fires to clean. Then they had to turn to and fill finer tanks and lavatory tanks, and by buckets, for the hoses were either locked up or could not be found. Then back down to Portpatrick, with a 40-minute late start on the return journey. They had a special stop at Dunragit, parties at Pinmore and Kilkerran, and had double stops at all stations except Ayr, finally arriving 148 minutes late in Glasgow Central. The engine crews booked off at Corkerhill after eighteen hours on duty!
'Splendid!' said Head Office, examining the passenger returns on Monday morning, and it promptly arranged for another similar excursion [next] Sunday."

When you and your sibling have the same taste in significant others - Ninjago, Jiang Smith Siblings

Clearly they're both into Redheads.
...
Okay, but seriously, both Jay and Skylor were hit with a type of Serpentine transformation (if I had a nickel ...).
Still makes me wonder, what if it's just a Jiang Smith thing (like a curse) that you're future significant other ends up with a Snake transformation when doing something important with said Jiang Smith.
Jay going on his first date with Nya
Skylor getting rescued by Kai
After all, clearly these two are just as interested.

Makes me wonder if Ray and Maya ever went through this kind of thing. They did fight during the Serpentine War - plenty of chances to get bitten by a Fangpyre. Could Snake!Maya have been apart of the Serpentine War.
Of course, the "curse" could be on Maya's side of the family, thus giving us Snake!Ray.
It's just a thought.
(*Edit: why did I write Venomari, I ment Fangpyre. It's fixed now*)

I was scrolling through build-a-bear's website, because that's how you do and a saw these cuties:
Tumblr media
ITS LITERALLY OCTAVIUS AND JULIA from "Any Weather"
Octavius gets a Squirrel because yk Squirrel. Also @creative-chaos-apparently, Rae this is one way to deal with the Squirrel's death but also give Oct his Squirrel back, granted it would be fucking huge but still. Give him his Squirrel, please.
And Julia would get a Opossum, because I'm referencing this one thing from Rae's story where Jed tells Julia that Opossum don't exist.
Anyway
So I was like, is there a bear that could be Jed?
But I couldn't find a horse or something to fit him that's why:
Tumblr media
Normal bear but, you get some red fabric you fashion him his neckcheif then
Boom!
Jed bear!!
Why did I do this? I'm putting off so much stuff and my ADHD saw teddy bears and ran.

In and AU where Lorien isn't destroyed yet, and they actually become the Elders (possibly the ones who have to stop Setrakus Ra):
Who'd be the leader? -Loridas (corresponding to Number One) was the leader of the Elders. Then again, Pittacus Lore (Number 4) was the strongest. That and the fact that the Elders before chose to put them in order of potential, weakest to strongest, making Nine the supposed leader.
Would Ella be an Elder? - possibly not with Setrakus Ra banished.
What would their Loric names be?- I NEED TO KNOW OR I'LL START MAKING SHIT UP ISTG.
I also found the names of the Elders and assumed whom they correspond to so:
One: as Loridas
Two: as Cleobulus.
Three: as Solon.
Four: as Pittacus Lore.
Five: as Periander. (Fun fact this word is Greek for tyrant and I can see why he'd be this guy).
Six: as Chion.
Seven: as Bias.
Eight: as Thales.
Nine: as Myson.
Ten: as Setrakus Ra. Forget it.
What do you think?
