FINALLY! AT LAST! GRANDDAD’S HORNBLOWER BOOK COLLECTION!!

#news from the cupola #hornblower #granddad tag #LOOK BEHOLD and SEE! #for those who do not recall I have been trying to locate these for Approximately Three Years... #now feeling large and complex emotions about the fact that he left the book-jacket in as a bookmark in lord #I know exactly where he left off when he last read it… (it was page 281) #and now he is Dead. and I miss him. #o granddad... I am stealing his hornblowers and possibly also his name... #feeling also large and complex emotions about the fact that I am only going to have space for one each of his copies of midshipman and #commodore... for each of those he had a lovely crisp copy and one that's worn and battered enough that I'm worried I'll break it #if I really open it up and give it a read! and each of them have their virtues and really it's Augh... #howEver. sorry granddad I will give away your copy of hotspur without shame. I have a lovely scratchboard paperback of which I am Fond.

Went to my first Jewish event tonight!! I hung out at my university's Chabad house and had a great talk with the rabbi; I don't think I want to convert Orthodox but I've signed up for one of their classes and will be hanging out with them more often!

found these while cleaning today, if anyone can tell me what kind of needle these are then i will think you are the coolest ever. i wanna look up how to use them but not sure where to start

#fiber arts #needles #crafting #embroidery #i'm tagging embroidery mostly as a guess #i feel like my granddad got these for me when he saw i was getting into embroidery #but i was using regular needles at the time and didn't know how to use these #so they ended up in the drawer of doom :P

There's a game that I play / There are rules I had to break / There's mistakes that I made / But I made them my way...

#em draws stuff #em is certainly not posting about bigglesworth #<- biggles containment tag which is a blatant falsehood #sorta a style study of my great-granddad but not very much #the good bigglesface remains elusive and evs is just drawn after the way subsequentibis draws revolver ocelot #like his pointy eyelash-y little face so I Borrow It :3 #caption lyrics are from 'this night' by black lab #and also the date in the signature is wrong... I drew this on the fourth. what was that about.

actually i have something more important to bring up: damian is not muslim. nor is ra's. nor does the league follow islam. the more i dig through just where and when historically ra's & his origins are, the less it makes sense for them. ra's was raised by nomads, sometime before the turn of the first millenia. since dc doesn't do their research, this should actually place him in a nomad tribe around 500-600 BC/CE, not around 1000. the majority of the pre-islam tribes that wandered the arabian peninsula ( like his origin states: "he was raised by nomads but was fascinated by science since a young age" ) were predominately christian or non-religious. in the case of the al ghuls, i highly suspect they were part of a christian one given ra's naming the life-giving waters a lazarus pit.

ra's ( and his mother who he revived then locked away for thousands of years and his father that he kept alive until the 1980s-90s~ ) was born and raised before the rise of islam. i haven't pinpointed the right tribe for him but the majority of them initially opposed islam and even fought against the early adopters.

to assume ra's is willing to follow an organized religion or dedicate his literal cult of followers to it is a little blind to his very character. especially considering he sees himself as an immortal god thanks to his literal resource to bring the dead back to life. he has conquered death. he has power, wealth, followers: in his own eyes, ra's is a god himself.

for his family to be raised under this atmosphere, it is exuberantly ignorant to just see them and go ' hehe dami is muslim :) ' just bc he's arab. arab =/= muslim. given his upbringing, his family, the cult he grew up in: he's not.

#many thinking emojis in chat today #anyway this is reason 747239 i hate checking his tag #im only there for art not for ooc hcs #need to reformat this into a proper hc or rewrite my religion hc bc its already like that #like rn i think it just reads ' dami is not muslim. dami doesnt care abt religion ' #which i still think lines up really well #considering his granddad is like ' yo im a literal god. bow to me. ' every 2 issues he appears in #⊰ ℜ ⊱ ┊ i need not for your absolution; do not hold that sword over me. ┊ DAMIAN WAYNE: CANON.

we have watched the first 5 episodes of s4 (last episode: The Late Captain Pierce) and

1. I like Colonel Potter -- he seems like the kind of guy who’s good at taking a lay of the land and fitting himself into an ecosystem. Interested by how that will manifest later on with more authority-defiant episodes, as there probably will be. Henry tried to be supportive, but wasn’t necessarily a strong ally so much as a “leave me out of it” party, who wasn’t trying to make too many waves (while still respecting Hawkeye and Trapper a great deal) (also to be fair to Blake he was never meant to be leading anything, except a medical practice, he was muddling through best as he could)

Potter is actually military -- he knows the game and military is home for him (I mean... he’s been in it since he was 15 and snuck his way into WWI that really is some time), but he’s not, by the looks of things, fervently pro-military or pro-America like some of the other colonels and generals we’ve seen (and he doesn’t like Frank)... lot of space to play with him both in support of and against Hawkeye (and now BJ)

2. speaking of BJ. and also of projecting (but maybe not? but also definitely a bit). We’re early in the season still, and it’s interesting to see how he navigates around Hawkeye, who seems so much more exhausted since we left him with the news of Henry’s death

in the last episode we watched, we get our first mention of Trapper since the opening episode (I don’t predict many -- if any -- more mentions, but that works pretty well for how I read Hawkeye feeling about being left behind), and it’s after he’s been declared dead and the army won’t notify his father that it’s a mistake and withhold his pay and ask him to fill in paperwork and he’s literally called an “un-person,” and decides... eh, well fuck that, I am technically discharged then, I’m going home, I’m going to lie in this truck that is full of corpses and blend in

and BJ spent this whole episode trying to cheer him up, trying to make it a bit funny that they messed up the paperwork, giving him a party, comforting him, etc. Earlier it’s mostly been Hawkeye helping BJ settle in and keeping his eye out for him, but in this one we get the first proper “given up for a moment” Hawkeye of the season (yay?) -- he could, for a moment, bounce back by putting his attentions on BJ, but it wasn’t going to last (internal bleeding makes itself known eventually no matter how much alcohol you consume)

and during this moment, he says to BJ, while they can hear the choppers with more wounded coming in the distance: “I don’t care. I really don’t. They’ll keep coming whether I’m here or not. Trapper went home, they’re still coming. Henry got killed and they’re still keep coming. Wherever they come from they’ll never run out.”

(of course, he leaves the truck he was stowing away in and comes back before it’s even left camp -- of course he does, because he cares a lot)

BJ around Hawkeye feels a bit like someone who’s emotionally savvy trying to help a man who’s going through grief -- a man he likes a great deal, but not someone he knows well (yet). Inheriting a man with some serious shrapnel -- looong surgery needed -- years maybe

it’s a fascinating place for their relationship to begin. Hawkeye is already so so tired (as he says in the same episode - tired to death), and BJ has been thrown into this incredibly volatile place -- he’s afraid and he’s not perfect in surgery (I love that detail) and he’s quite young, and Hawkeye was kind to him when they first met, and is still kind to him.

So now he’s helping him through this time, and maybe on the other side of it, there might be a connection that’s forged out of going through something indescribably painful together

#hawkeye pierce #bj hunnicutt #sherman potter #henry had dad and occasionally uncle vibes -- potter is firmly a granddad #MASH #im watching MASH #< I'm going to make that a tag now so you can block it if you don't want to see it #the grief IS very much henry dying but the fact that that was something he was supposed to be going through WITH trapper #that trapper was someone steady opposite whom he didn't have to perform -- and then that's just gone all at once as well #and -- not that he would have wanted trapper to die but then at least the lack of note would have made sense -- he's bitter about it #he's not just unable to go through his sadness over it -- he's also contending with how angry he is #no wonder he's so tired #(and to read too much into it: interesting he says 'trapper went home' first) #(trapper wasn't supposed to leave him like this) #(THAT'S the most senseless thing of all)
