Disgruntled for a Reason -- Toxic Workplace
I was employed by Signet Maritime Corporation (SMC) and then I quit because it was a very toxic environment. Here is what I received from the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) and my rebuttals as well as a timeline of events. QUOTE from Page 18A from SMC’s appeal of the Texas Workforce Commission’s decision to allow me benefits of $204 a week. As written by Joshua Johnson of Signet Maritime –…

Walter Blythe & Gilbert Blythe
"He patted Walter's head and Walter caught his hand and hugged it. There was no one like Dad in the world." (Anne of Ingleside by L. M. Montgomery).

"People said he had never been the same since his son was killed in the Great War."
"...we have our memories of him and souls cannot die. We can still walk with Walter in the spring."

And Rilla, I'm not afraid. When you hear the news, remember that.

Rilla of Ingleside created a new timeline...
Anne's House of Dreams mentioned a historical event - a federal election: “Mistress Blythe, the Liberals are in with a sweeping majority. After eighteen years of Tory mismanagement this down-trodden country is going to have a chance at last.” (AHoD).
From Wikipedia: "The 1896 Canadian federal election was held on June 23, 1896, to elect members of the House of Commons of Canada of the 8th Parliament of Canada. Though the Conservative Party, led by Prime Minister Charles Tupper, won a plurality of the popular vote, the Liberal Party, led by Wilfrid Laurier, won the majority of seats to form the next government. The election ended 18 years of Conservative rule."
It wouldn't be surprsing, but... it was also the year in which Jem Blythe was born! The election took place few weeks after his birth: "When Anne came downstairs again, the Island, as well as all Canada, was in the throes of a campaign preceding a general election." (AHoD).
So... according to this timeline, Walter was born a year later (1897), then the twins (1899), Shirley (1901) and Rilla (1903).
The point is... at the outbreak of the war, Walter would have been only 17 years old, the twins 15, Shirley 13, Rilla 11...
Shirley would have been too young to participate in the war and Walter would have barely turned nineteen at the time of the Battle of Flers-Courcelette in September of 1916...
Someone in one of my older posts noticed that puff sleeves fashion suggested that Anne of Green Gables took place in 1880s rather than 1870s... so it would make sense!
I wonder why Montgomery chose Rilla as her teenage heroine (according to the original chronology, Rilla should have been only 11 years old), while there were 15-year-old twins...
Can you imagine Nan and Di as the main characters of the war book? Two young girls at Queen's, trying to come to terms with rapidly changing world? Rilla and Shirley at Ingleside, growing closer in such trying times? Teenage boys - Jem and Walter - who had to choose if they wanted to sacrifice their life at even younger age - at eighteen? Walter, never reaching the age of twenty (or maybe - dare I hope - coming back home safely)? Anne and Gilbert in their 40s, trying to collect all the broken pieces that was once their family?
It would have been equally good, in my opinion. I wonder... why Montgomery felt she had to suddenly change a whole chronology?
Side note: of course, I love Rilla of Ingleside. But I am just curious... (Nan and Di of Ingleside would be a good book, too!).

Ingleside Resort of Staunton, Virginia dates back to 1928. The property consists of 4 motel-style buildings and a hotel totaling 200 rooms. It also has a conference center, ballroom, cocktail lounge, two restaurants, multiple pools a fitness center, bowling alley and tennis courts.
In the 1940s, it was leased to the federal government and was put into service as an internment camp. By the 1950s, it opened back up as an exclusive resort and operated until 2003. After filing for bankruptcy, the resort was abandoned.
The original 18-hole golf course remains open for business. One of the motel buildings is still used as the pro shop.

My latest dream job: Starting a film company that makes adaptations of the less-popular books by famous authors. Those series where the first book has a jillion adaptations and the later books have none at all? We're just adapting the later books. The author's got one super popular book with a jillion adaptations even though their best book has a small but devoted fanbase that is dying for just one film? We're adapting the obscure gems.
We're starting with The Blue Castle, Rilla of Ingleside, and The Magician's Nephew. All never-adapted stories that can stand alone so we don't have to adapt the popular books for it to make sense.

She had her own inner life of dream and fancy. She fashioned secret drama for herself out of everything she heard or saw or read and sojourned in realms of wonder and romance. "Far, far away" had always been words of magic to her.
- L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Ingleside (1939)

She's like a tea rose. There's a wonderful fineness and firmness under all that shy, wistful girlishness of her.

Also. Watch old movies. Read classic books, and try to understand the truths, if any, that are universal in them to apply to us. You can learn a lot about truth from Sunset Boulevard even if it was shot in a time before social media was invented. You can learn an incredible amount from Rilla of Ingleside even if it was written way back before World War II.
Truth is truth, no matter how much time passes or how much our minds and cultures change. And back then, there were simply more movies and stories about plain, common-sense truth. Not about “your truth” and “my truth” or “my experience vs your experience.”
Just stories that highlighted reality as reality, and taught lessons like there was such a thing as good and evil.
Who cares if they’re in black and white?! Who cares if Snow White’s voice is super high-pitched? Who cares if there’s no steamy teenage love-triangle?
I used to hate mushrooms but then gradually, after eating them over and over in different dishes, i started associating the flavor I used to hate with things I love, and now I’ll eat mushrooms by themselves. I used to find the way some little kids scream-laugh annoying, but then I started working with them, and realizing that the scream-laugh means they’re genuinely delighted and they don’t care what anybody thinks in that moment, and sometimes I could even be the one to cause the scream-laugh—and now I love that sound, because I associate it with good and wonderful things. Plus, I’m just around it more often, so I’m used to it. That’s the first step.
You realize you can change your tastes, right? You can train them? It’s the same with old stories.
Get off your phone. If you’ve got time to scroll, read a book that was written before the 60s. If you’ve got time to scroll, turn on a classic movie. I’d start with East of Eden or Sunset Boulevard. See what truths are in there that are timeless, that every human from the dawn of time till the end of the world could stand to be reminded of.
Just go eat some real food, enough with the junk diet.
