A werewolf pulls some strings to live a rent-free life at the local zoo.

She finds out that the seal at the zoo is a selkie who had the same idea.

What are the odds when Israel presents its defence tomorrow, they’ll all suddenly remember this case exists after all?

Woke up this morning to the atonal wailing of a children's choir accompanied by a deep-voiced man chanting rhythmically about the economy in French.

Thinking about by this post by @celluloidbroomcloset about Stede, physical touch, and consent (which is a really good meta), and especially thinking about the final line: “[Ed] too is rarely touched without violence.” And thinking about it in context of this scene in 1.06.

This is the scene which, if you’re watching the episodes back-to-back, immediately follows the first “you wear fine things well” scene, which feels like very purposeful placement. I fully think that this is Ed trying to get Stede to touch him again the only way he knows how (or, perhaps, the only way he’s been conditioned to believe is acceptable within the toxic-masculinity ridden world of piracy): through violence.

And when Stede does stab him, Ed practically melts into his arms, and begins giggling like a kid with a crush.

It says a lot about the world that Ed grew up in that he pulls a gun on Stede and threatens to shoot if he doesn’t stab Ed, all just to get Stede to hold him.

Murdoch mysteries is one of the few shows I believe can pull of a musical episode becuase the nature of the show to begin with. This show has not taken itself seriously since day one and its glorious. The main character has invented the roomba, the microwave and reinvented the sport of curling. George crabtree was the inspiration for anne of green gables. Their (arguably) best episode is a parody of weekend at bernies. Aliens are real. Shows like greys anatomy think they can do a musical episode but they haven't built up the lore. I've come to expect absolute nonsense mixed up with some charming message about justice from mm. This is what nikola tesla intended when he invented television.

"The public don’t understand that the olive oil price is skyrocketing because crops in Europe have been devastated by extreme drought because of climate change, and that it’s going to get much worse - or that David Attenborough warns the collapse of the food system is on the horizon which means extreme violence… The public don’t understand because the media aren’t interested and aren’t telling them. More about it here:"

Reflexively so, there are also researchers who are optimistic about the future of Olive Oil production. I have seen some other articles address these issues, and some report about hoping that current/future farmers will be able to adapt/change certain practices to account for weather fluctuations -and albeit yes it is quite alarming (as this conversation can extend into overall food security with gradual but drastic increases in climate change that we have see this past decade alone). I wanted to share this from the CBC article above, because I have hope that this industry will be able to recover:

"The situation has some farmers talking about how to adapt to climate change, such as by planting more drought-hardy varieties of olive trees. But Pananos says any change to the farming methods is going to take a long time." "Some of the farms around here, some of the olive groves were established many years ago, some of them 100 and 200 years ago," he said." "To make a drastic change … they will also have to put up with many years of inactivity to implement such thing." "Although farmers like Pananos are concerned about the short-term and long-term effects extreme heat will have on olive groves, some researchers are still optimistic about the plant's future." "Olive is actually a crop for the future because it doesn't rely so much on water," said Selina Wang, who has been researching olives for more than 15 years." "It requires moderate amount of water and chemicals for growing olives. A lot of farmers do not use any chemicals at all," she told Galloway."

What if I said that hypothetically Brink and Caught Between Collapsing Skies take place in the same universe. Just for funsies. What’s stopping me. Maybe all my fics are secretly in the same universe, who knows. Maybe it’s all connected. Maybe it’s all part of a plan- /j

#it’s not #well… the first two are. #connected at least not part of a grander plan #wonder what weird shit happened in Athens in 1889 #spooky #but like for the most part they’re the only ones #hypothetically I guess that one Mer SMP fic I started and then never went on to finish could also take place in that world #they’re all so disconnected by time and space it doesn’t super matter #I think CBCS would be like… 75 years past the end of Brink? something like that #fable smp #fablesmp #on the brink of scientific discovery #fanfic #skybound smp #bound smp

It turns out CBC News is aware they describe Israel’s violence against Palestinians with sanitized language—and they actually believe it’s justified. In a letter responding to a complaint filed by a reader, the public broadcaster acknowledged that they’ve used terms like “murderous,” “vicious,” “brutal,” “massacre,” and “slaughter” to refer only to Hamas’s attack on Israelis on Oct. 7.  But when it comes to the Israeli army’s bombing of Palestinians, which has killed more than 22,600 people as of Friday, CBC says they prefer to use terms like “intensive,” “unrelenting,” and "punishing." [...]

“This use of language attempts to minimize the ugliness of Israeli atrocities and get maximum hatred out of the Hamas attacks. It also serves to skew the reader’s empathy towards Israel and away from Palestinians—a further dehumanizing of an already downtrodden people.” [...]

I need to subject everyone following this blog to exactly what CBC Radio thought was an appropriate wakeup call for everybody who had their alarm set to 7:15 this morning.
