“There is nothing more pagan than the idea of the knight-monk of the religious military orders, uniting religiosity and war, austerity and strength”.

The Church at War

Why would Christian Scriptures commend people for waging war? War, after all, is nearly universally condemned – even as it remains a relentless curse in various corners of our world. One young pastor was “charged” with a duty that belongs, by biblical extension, to all believers. “This charge I entrust to you [that] you may wage the good warfare, holding faith and a good conscience” (1 Timothy…

if your country is a part of NATO then joining your country's military is fucking psychotic imo. like you could just get sent to die whenever and wherever the americans want you to die in the name of profit. genuinely insane to put yourself in that situation

#some time ago a croatian soldier died in Afghanistan(?) on American orders and when I saw those news I was so confused like #what tje fuck was he doing there. I couldn't even comprehend that there's croatian soldiers in Afghanistan i literally thought the dude went #there on his own unrelated to the military #then realized we're in NATO and USA wars are now apparently our wars #i don't really care about the cro soldier it's just an insane situation

Look, I know I already have ideas for the next part of Knight!Ghost & Life!Ghost, but let me tell you this idea that's completely unrelated to Ghost; John Price with a punk partner.

Anyone who sees him thinks his partner is well-tempted, wears muted or lowkey clothes. Someone who conforms to the ideas of society.

But John was drawn to you because you're the exact opposite what people expect his partner to be.

You have several tattoos and piercings, most tattoos having sociopolitical messages. Your clothes are sometimes vibrant, but always loud even when it's an all-black outfit. Your hair is dyed something different and vibrant almost every single time John sees you.

And you're definitely not a punk that's only in for the aesthetic. You're a rebel through and through. You go to so many protests outside corporate buildings, stop construction of many beloved parks. You've gone to jail several times for protesting, and John has bailed you out every single time.

Despite how angry you may seem, John sees the softer side of you. He knows you're just passionate about things you care about. He's seen you relax and smile while cuddled up on his couch with him. He's seen how tender you are when you're volunteering at a local pet shelter and so gently holding any animal, even snakes.

So whenever one of the 141 asks John about you, he's so quick to ramble and gush about how kind you are. How you're passionate about your beliefs. How much he loves you.

And when he one days says that you made it onto the front page of a local newspaper, they think it's because you won something like a cooking competition. Something that he should be proud of you, but not something that they think is truly out there and crazy.

Only for him to show said newspaper and point at the picture of you chaining yourself to a very old tree in a park that was about to be built upon while the headline reads "Local Activist Goes to Prison for Disrupting Construction".

CEO!Magnus and personal chef/bodyguard!Alec

(There is every chance that I have posted this before, I just can't remember. I tried to search through my archive, but.... there is a lot of posts there, did you know? 🤣😂 Anyway, in case I'm making you read this twice, sorry. 😅)

Magnus being like this really big shot CEO who has meetings 24/7 and charity events and social appearances and all that other busy stuff going on. So he gets a personal chef to keep an eye on his nutrition. And Alec is ruthless when it comes to making sure Magnus eats healthy. Magnus: "You know I love your cooking, Darling, but how about a good old fashioned fast food break?" Alec: "All that grease is bad for you. Eat your carrots. You look pale. How much sleep did you get last night?" Magnus, innocently: "Enough?" Alec: "Unlikely. No more caffeine for you today."

Magnus trying to sneak all kinds of unheathy Snacks, and Alec foiling him at every turn. Magnus had an energy drink hidden away in his desk, but as he opens the drawer, there is a bottle of water with a note attatched with "stay hydrated".

Alec even convinced the close by Cafe to not serve Magnus anything with Caffeine, after Magnus' last doctors appointment showed high blood pressure.

Maybe Alec is some kind of ex-agent or ex-military, who got into cooking for an undercover op, but really enjoyed it and wanted to pursue it further when he quite the force.

When one of Alec’s old colluegues comes visiting him, Alec is crouching behind the entertainment system to find Magnus' latest snack hidey-hole. Alec: "He gets more creative every time. Some of the drug dealers we busted could have learned from him."

Bet you Magnus is the type of CEO who has a loyal Twitter following and he tweets about everything Alec cooks for him (and the things he doesn't let him eat.) The Internet already ships them.

Possible tweet: The_Magnificent_Bane: Thank you for the suggestion @randomfollower, but unfortunately Alexander didn’t go for the argument that carrot cake counts as a vegetable.

Why am I know picturing a fight in the kitchen where Alec uses kitchen utensils and food to knock out people who have come to kidnap Magnus

Imagine someone broke into Magnus' place, and the police are called and as they arrive Magnus is like: "Thank you for coming. My chef has already apprehended and restrained the perpetrators, and is waiting for you to take them off his hands in the living room." Police: "... Your cook apprehended them?" Magnus: "Yes. Sadly, the confrontation did not result in the death of that cursed celery he bought earlier."

Magnus: "Tomatoes can't be trusted, my darling. Are they a fruit? Are they a vegetable? No one knows." Alec: "They are fruits." Magnus: "That's what they want you to believe."

Len Cariou is one of the finest daddies around. I had a crush on him ever since I first see him in this episode.

Man, just thinking of the dynamic between Kiku and Yao, the politics of men’s haircuts from the Opium Wars onwards, and how two nations who have known each other for so long see things. When Kiku first cuts his hair short in the western style upon the dawn of the Meiji-era, it’s naturally a tad strange and unnerving. But it’s a transition he’s able to make, especially because the western world is simultaneously unfamiliar but also familiar through his longtime relationship with the Netherlands and rangaku (Dutch studies). Short hair marks him as severing his ties with the old Sinocentric order, and what feels incredibly alienating eventually symbolises power, adaptability and recognition, in the aftermath of his victory in the first Sino-Japanese war.

But of course, it is the opposite for Yao. It symbolises defeat, it is the admission of failure, that he is well and truly no longer the standard bearer of civilisational prestige. I think one moment where it really sinks in for Kiku that the old order is truly upside down isn’t just the moment he wins—but seeing Yao himself later at the peace conference, tense and weary, but now with his own hair neatly cropped short, in drab western clothes so different from the more colourful silk garb of a Qing official—as the ink dries on the Treaty of Shimonoseki. A mourner at his own funeral, a pale shadow of the forceful, proud and towering empire whose presence used to fill the room effortlessly, in whose shadow Kiku used to walk.

#hetalia #hws china #hws japan #hetalia headcanons #as always one of my favourite topics…the politics of haircuts and the alienating force of westernisation #frankly i feel like Yao took a hit to his ego when defeated by Manchuria (the founding of the Qing dynasty) #but he told himself that the Manchu in many ways were still adopting structures of his imperial order (just taking over it) #losing to Kiku whose military has westernised and industrialised is a different thing
