Adele says she will be supporting the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl for Taylor Swift and defends her from football fans:

“All of you complaining about Taylor being at the games, get a f*cking life. She’s actually made it a bit more enjoyable to watch.”

Prompt 10 - Violin

@jegulus-microfic February 10 Word count 733

Previous part First part

It took Moody two days to return to the safe house. During that time, James and Sirius had bought a few things down to the cellar to make Regulus more comfortable. An actual bed, for one thing, and a way to wash himself. Remus sacrificed a small collection of his books, and Sirius went out and bought more cassette tapes for the Walkman. 

He knew he shouldn’t get comfortable, but having James around made it difficult not to be. The feelings he had for James had never gone away, but he hadn’t realised how strong they still were.

With no one to tell him no, James had spent the entirety of the last two days down in the cellar with Regulus. 

It was awkward, but they got on with it. Regulus spent most of the time trying to ignore him. He didn’t want to stoke the embers of his hopes. He listened to Sirius’s music instead. Enjoying the ethereal beauty of the violin that played on one of the classical music tapes that Sirius had mixed in amongst the multiple Bowie and T.Rex cassettes. Regulus played them all, making note of his favourites, but he definitely preferred the classical ones. So much emotion bled from each note. But they couldn’t stop his nightmares.   

He’d had one the previous night and woken screaming. James, who’d been sleeping on one of the chairs, was startled awake at the noise. Then he came over to where Regulus was still panicking over the images dancing behind his eyes, scooped him up and sat with him cradled in his lap. Regulus snuggled into him, feeling the warm safety of James. His sniffles eventually subsided, but he still clung to James. It had been so long since someone had held him with kindness. It had probably been James himself at Hogwarts before he’d taken the mark.

James yawned an almighty yawn and shuffled uncomfortably on the edge of the bed. 

“Sorry,” Regulus whispered. 

“It’s okay. Ready to get back into bed?” Regulus nodded, and James gently transferred Regulus from his arms to the mattress. He straightened up to go back to his chair. 

“James?”

“Yeah, Reg.”

“Could you lie next to me?” He felt so ridiculous asking. They’d spent countless nights in a bed together, but now. Now, it was different. James rubbed the back of his neck, and Regulus knew he was going to say no. “Please, James. Just—please.” He let whatever masks may have been protecting him slip away and let the raw sadness overwhelm his features. He saw the second James gave in. He must have looked truly pathetic. 

“Budge up then.” James sighed. Regulus moved as far over as the small bed allowed, and James slotted himself between the sheets. Regulus kept his back to him, not wanting to push it. He was just glad that James was close. He heard James whisper to himself. 

“Fuck it.” And then James had his arms wrapped around him and pulled him in close to spoon him. Regulus melted. 

***

Far too soon, Mad-Eye Moody was barking at them to wake up. 

“Potter, out!” James didn’t argue with him. He gave Regulus a quick squeeze and left. Regulus could hear every step he took and followed them with his eyes up the wall. He didn’t even try to hide it. What was the point?

“You’ve got a visitor,” Moody said almost pleasantly. That got Regulus’s attention. A smile was playing at the corner of Moody’s mouth. The door at the top of the stairs opened again. Regulus barely had time to sit up before Albus Dumbledore swept into the room. His plum-coloured robes billowing behind him.

“Mr Black,” He announced. His periwinkle eyes taking everything in, missing nothing. “Alastor has relayed to me your displeasure about your move to Azkaban.” His gentle voice made it sound as though Azkaban had been Regulus’s idea. “I believe Mr Potter and the other Mr Black share this displeasure.”

“And Lupin,” Mad-Eye grunted from the corner he’d gone to lean in. His magical eye spun to look through the top of his head and into the kitchen above. 

“And Mr Lupin too. That is interesting.” Dumbledore said thoughtfully. He waited silently, his eyes never leaving Regulus’s face. 

“Yes.” Regulus agreed when he realised that Dumbledore was waiting for a response.

“In that case, Mr Black. I have a proposition for you.”

Animal of the Day!

Satanic Leaf-Tailed Gecko (Uroplatus phantasticus)

(Photo from Reptile Direct)

Conservation Status- Unlisted

Habitat- Eastern Madagascar

Size (Weight/Length)- 100 mm

Diet- Small insects; Snails

Cool Facts- Yes, that’s actually its name. The satanic leaf-tailed gecko is named for both its leaf shaped tail and the small horns above its eyes. Originally described in 1888, it was thought to be a mythical creature from its beautiful appearance. Its camouflage perfectly blends in with the thick Madagascan rainforests. The gecko’s feet have adhesive hairs on their toes that maximizes their surface area and allows them to stick to vertical surfaces. If their camo fails, the satanic leaf-tailed gecko opens wide and shows off its vibrant red throat with the hopes of scaring off birds. Due to habitat loss and the illegal pet trade, these geckos are at risk. Luckily, three national parks protect the rainforests that the geckos call home.

Rating- 11/10 (Lizardman, take me by the hand.)

Állítsuk meg a nácik dicsőítését!

A náci múlt bűneinek letagadása és dicsőítése általános jelenség. A fasiszta korszakot egyre többen próbálják eszményíteni: ezzel elárulják, hogy milyen jövőt szeretnének.

A fasizmus totális diktatúrát, tömeges népirtást, háborút és nyomort hozott az emberiségre. A náci birodalmat kiszolgáló Horthy több százezer magyar katonát kényszerített a népirtásban való részvételre, akik nagy része aztán életét vesztette a német gyarmatosítás érdekében. A náci birodalom a magyar állammal karöltve ipari módszerekkel meggyilkolt félmillió magyar állampolgárt. A náci hadsereg kirabolta Európát, és benne Magyarországot is. Leszerelték és elvitték a gyárakat – kivéve azokat, amelyek elszállítását a munkásság megakadályozta. A német hadsereg felrobbantotta az ország összes hídját. Kiszolgálóik, a nyilasok az utolsó pillanatig kínozták és gyilkolták az embereket, ezerszámra. Értelmetlen katonai ellenállásuk miatt Budapest jelentős része súlyosan károsodott. Tömeghalál és romhalmaz: ez a nácik „hőstetteinek” eredménye.

1945. februárjában a budai Várban csapdába esett náci birodalmi csapatok sikertelenül próbáltak elmenekülni. Ennek emlékére a mai nácik, nyilasok, fasiszták, légiósok, „betyárok” februárban megpróbálnak nácikat dicsőítő rendezvényeket tartani. Felvonulnak, koncerteket tartanak, túráznak. A Vár környékét ellepik a nácikat hősnek tekintő emberek. Megkísérelnek egyenruhában masírozni, vagy úgy tesznek, mintha csak egy teljesítménytúrán vennének részt, és nem náci megemlékezésen. Az emléktúrákat kifejezetten azért kezdték el megszervezni, mert ezt szerintük a hatóságok nem tudják megakadályozni. A „Kitörés túra” mára a legnagyobb náci-dicsőítő eseménnyé vált. A túra szervezői jelentős állami támogatásban részesülnek, annak ellenére, hogy a túra kiírásában egyértelműen megfogalmazzák, hogy a céljuk az Európát kirabló és romba döntő náci birodalom „hősei” előtti tisztelgés. Aki ezen a túrán részt vesz az nemcsak biodíszlet a mai fasiszták hatalomra törő terveihez, hanem egyfajta azonosulást is felvállal a nyilas-náci hatalom rémtetteivel.

A mai nácik hajdani elődeik tetteinek dicsőítésével saját jövőbeli terveiket mutatják be. Akik a hajdani „faji háborút” hősiesnek tartják, azok pontosan ugyanazt szeretnék csinálni.

Soha többé fasizmust! Mondj nemet a nácik dicsőítésének! Állítsuk meg a mai nácikat!

Stop glorifying the nazis!

The denial and glorification of the crimes of the nazi past is a common phenomenon. More and more people are trying to idealise the fascist era and with that, they are betraying the future they want.

Fascism brought total dictatorship, mass genocide, war and misery to humanity. Horthy, in the service of the nazi empire, forced hundreds of thousands of hungarian soldiers to participate in genocide, most of whom lost their lives in the interest of german colonialism. The nazi empire, in collaboration with the hungarian state, murdered half a million hungarian citizens using industrial methods. The nazi army plundered europe, including hungary. It dismantled factories and took them away - except for those ones that the workers prevented from being removed. The german army blew up every bridge in the country. The hungarian ’arrow cross party’, the servants of the german nazis tortured and murdered thousands of people until the last minute of the war. Their senseless military resistance left much of Budapest heavely damaged. Mass deaths and ruins were the results of the nazis' "heroic deeds".

In February 1945, nazi imperial troops that were trapped in the Buda castle tried to escape unsuccessfully. To commemorate this, today's nazis, fascists, legionnaires and the ’outlaws’ of the ’outlaw army’ try to hold events in February to glorify the nazis. The area around the castle is full of people who see the nazis as heroes. They hold concerts, try to march in uniforms or pretend to be on a hike, not on a nazi commemoration. They organise the commemorative hikes specifically because they believe that the authorities cannot prevent them to gather then. The "outbreak tour" has now become the largest nazi commemoration event. The organisers of the tour receive substantial state funding, despite the fact that the tour clearly states in its description that its aim is to pay tribute to the 'heroes' of the nazi empire that plundered and destroyed europe. Those who take part in this tour are not only human decorations of the fascists' plans for power today, but also present an identification with the atrocities of the ’arrow cross’ nazi regime.

By glorifying the deeds of their former predecessors, today's nazis are presenting their own plans for the future. Those who consider the former 'race war' heroic want to do exactly the same now.

Never again fascism! Say no to glorifying the nazis! Stop the nazis of today!

Hört auf, die Nazis zu verherrlichen!

Die Leugnung und Verherrlichung der Verbrechen der nationalsozialistischen Vergangenheit ist ein weit verbreitetes Phänomen. Immer mehr Menschen versuchen, die faschistische Ära als Verrat an der von ihnen gewünschten Zukunft zu idealisieren.

Der Faschismus brachte der Menschheit totale Diktatur, massenhaften Völkermord, Krieg und Elend. Horthy, der dem Nazireich diente, zwang Hunderttausende ungarischer Soldaten zur Teilnahme am Völkermord, von denen die meisten anschließend im Dienste des deutschen Kolonialismus ihr Leben verloren. Das Nazireich ermordete in Zusammenarbeit mit dem ungarischen Staat eine halbe Million ungarische Bürger mit industriellen Methoden. Die Nazi-Armee plünderte Europa, darunter auch Ungarn. Fabriken wurden demontiert und abtransportiert – mit Ausnahme derer, die von den Arbeitern daran gehindert worden waren, sie zu entfernen. Die deutsche Armee sprengte jede Brücke im Land. Ihre Diener, die Pfeilkreuzler, folterten und ermordeten Menschen bis zur letzten Minute, Tausende von ihnen. Ihr sinnloser militärischer Widerstand hinterließ große Teile Budapests schwer beschädigt. Massenhaftes Sterben und Zerstörung: das Ergebnis der „Heldentaten” der Nazis.

Im Februar 1945 versuchten die in der Budaer Burg eingeschlossenen kaiserlichen Truppen erfolglos zu entkommen. Um daran zu erinnern, versuchen die heutigen Nazis, Pfeilkreuzler, Faschisten, Legionäre und „Geächteten” im Februar Veranstaltungen zur Verherrlichung der Nazis abzuhalten. Sie marschieren, geben Konzerte und unternehmen Wanderungen. Die Gegend um das Schloss ist voll von Menschen, die die Nazis als Helden betrachten. Sie versuchen, in Uniform zu marschieren oder so zu tun, als seien sie auf einer Performance-Tour und nicht auf einer Gedenkveranstaltung für die Nazis. Die Gedenkmärsche wurden eigens organisiert, weil sie glauben, dass die Behörden sie nicht verhindern können. Die „Outbreak Tour” ist inzwischen zur größten Nazi-Gedenkveranstaltung geworden. Die Organisatoren erhalten beträchtliche staatliche Zuschüsse, obwohl sie in der Beschreibung der Tour deutlich darauf hinweisen, dass ihr Ziel darin besteht, die „Helden” des Nazi-Reiches zu ehren, das Europa geplündert und zerstört hat. Wer an dieser Tour teilnimmt, ist nicht nur ein Biopic der faschistischen Machtpläne von heute, sondern auch eine Form der Identifikation mit den Gräueltaten des Pfeilkreuzler-Naziregimes.

Indem sie die Taten ihrer früheren Vorgänger verherrlichen, präsentieren die heutigen Nazis ihre eigenen Pläne für die Zukunft. Diejenigen, die den „Rassenkrieg” von damals als heroisch ansehen, wollen genau dasselbe tun.

Nie wieder Faschismus! Sagt Nein zur Verherrlichung der Nazis! Stoppt die Nazis von heute!

Pare de glorificar os nazistas!

A negação e a glorificação dos crimes do passado nazista são um fenômeno comum. Cada vez mais pessoas tentam idealizar a era fascista e, com isso, traem o futuro que desejam.

O fascismo trouxe a ditadura total, o genocídio em massa, a guerra e a miséria para a humanidade. Horthy, ao serviço do império nazi, forçou centenas de milhares de soldados húngaros a participar no genocídio, a maioria dos quais perdeu a vida pelo interesse do colonialismo alemão. O império nazi, em colaboração com o estado húngaro, assassinou meio milhão de cidadãos húngaros utilizando métodos em massa. O exército nazista saqueou a europa, incluindo a hungria. Desmantelou fábricas e levou-as embora - exceto aquelas que os trabalhadores impediram de serem removidas. O exército alemão explodiu todas as pontes do país. O “partido da cruz flechada” húngaro, os lacaios dos nazis alemães, torturaram e assassinaram milhares de pessoas até o último minuto da guerra. A sua resistência militar sem sentido deixou grande parte de Budapeste gravemente danificada. Mortes em massa e ruínas foram o resultado dos “feitos heroicos” dos nazistas.

Em fevereiro de 1945, as tropas imperiais nazistas que ficaram presas no castelo de Buda tentaram escapar sem sucesso. Para comemorar isto, os nazis, fascistas, legionários e os “foras-da-lei” do “exército fora-da-lei” de hoje tentam realizar eventos em fevereiro para glorificar os nazis. A área ao redor do castelo está cheia de pessoas que veem os nazistas como heróis. Eles realizam shows, tentam marchar uniformizados ou fingem estar fazendo trilhas, não em uma comemoração nazista. Eles organizam as trilhas comemorativas especificamente porque acreditam que as autoridades não podem impedi-los de se reunirem. A "outbreak tour" tornou-se agora o maior evento de comemoração nazista. Os organizadores da viagem recebem financiamento estatal substancial, apesar da tour afirmar claramente na sua descrição que o seu objetivo é prestar homenagem aos “heróis” do império nazi que saqueou e destruiu a europa. Aqueles que participam nesta tour não são apenas decorações humanas dos planos de poder dos fascistas hoje, mas também se identificam com as atrocidades do regime nazi da “cruz flechada”.

Ao glorificar os feitos dos seus antecessores, os nazis de hoje apresentam os seus próprios planos para o futuro. Aqueles que consideram heroica a antiga “nova ordem” querem fazer exatamente o mesmo agora.

Nunca mais fascismo! Diga não à glorificação dos nazistas! Pare os nazistas de hoje!

Mae West, star and playwright of Sex, as she left the West Side court, February 10, 1927. She had been held on $1,000 bail for a further hearing on her play, which was deemed "unfit for public showing." Sex and two other plays on Broadway had been raided by the cops the night before and the principals hailed (and some hauled) into night court.
