Repugnant Associated Press Tries to Inject Race Into Tragic Baltimore Bridge Collapse, Drags Up Namesake's Slavery Past

Well, that didn’t take long. The Key Bridge collapsed in Baltimore early Tuesday after being struck by a cargo ship, and the bodies of all the victims have not even been recovered yet. The economic catastrophe now facing Baltimore will certainly last months, but it has the potential to harm the region for years. Grieving families are still processing the loss of their loved ones even as investigators try to piece together what happened.

Yet the Associated Press thought now would be a good time to bring up the history of the bridge’s namesake—"Star-Spangled Banner” lyricist Francis Scott Key—and drag up his ties to slavery. Because what better time than in the aftermath of a horrific accident is there to try to make the story about racism when it has absolutely nothing to do with race?

That’s our laughingstock national press today, folks.

See:

UPDATE: Six Presumed Dead in Baltimore Bridge Collapse, Search and Rescue Efforts Suspended

Will Baltimore Survive the Closing of Its Port?

The AP framed its story as just a little background piece about Key:

Who was Francis Scott Key, whose namesake bridge fell? His poem became 'The Star-Spangled Banner' https://t.co/Y5tMA75Dob— The Associated Press (@AP) March 26, 2024

Fair enough. Not most people’s particular concern at the moment as the recovery efforts continue, but hey, AP, you do you. They detail the circumstances under which Key wrote the Star-Spangled Banner, which became our national anthem—but it’s at the end that they get to the real reason they wrote the article: Key’s association with slavery is evidently important to the story of a cargo ship crashing into a bridge over two centuries later.

While the first verse of the anthem is the most well-known, there are a total of four stanzas; in the third, there’s a reference made to a slave. Key, whose family owned people and who owned enslaved people himself, supported the idea of sending free Black people to Africa but opposed the abolition of slavery in the U.S., according to the National Park Service’s Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine. His personal history has made him a controversial figure in some quarters; in June 2020, a statue of him in San Francisco was taken down.

Go ahead and say it, Associated Press: the bridge probably deserved what it got. That’s the point of your story, admit it.

I’m not saying Key’s past should be glossed over; historians are absolutely free to discuss it—but what I am saying is this is 100 percent not the time to delve into it. The survivors and the families of those who perished certainly aren’t focused on that, and neither are the millions of empathetic Americans watching the tragedy unfold and feeling for those affected.

Post 9/11, do you remember any stories in the immediate aftermath about Lt. General Edward Lawrence Logan, a Spanish-American war hero from South Boston? I certainly don’t. Boston’s Logan Airport, where the 9/11 attackers boarded the planes that eventually crashed into the Twin Towers, is named after him. Yet somehow, journalists and readers thought the 3,000-plus deaths and the collapse of our iconic towers was the story of the day, not who the freakin’ airport was named after. That, and they evidently couldn't use his background to incite racial animus, so the press didn’t bother.

I’d love to believe that some enterprising reporter thought to themselves, “Hmm, this is a terrible tragedy; I could write a background story on this bridge and relate the history of our national anthem.” But I don’t believe that for a second (most "journalists" despise the Star-Spangled Banner)—I believe the writer went, “Oh! There’s a racial angle. Let’s hit it pronto despite the fact that it has nothing to do with anything!”

Because sadly, that’s how they roll these days.

Unfortunately, this isn't the only attempt by leftists to force-feed politics into this story. Here's former California Assemblyman Mike Gatto's head-scratching take on the disaster: it's really about "immigrants":

They have no shame.

PRAISE FOR householes by Natalie Parker-Lawrence

“Try picking drops of the ocean with tweezers. Try expressing your grief, rage, fear, love within the tiny, out-of-breath, syllable-stingy form of haiku. Natalie Parker-Lawrence’s poems, concocted from the rushing, halting words of women caregivers of veterans, honor the essence. An image, a sound, a memory, a nightmare: capture it: in so few words.”

–Margaret Edson, author of Wit and winner of the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for Drama

“Natalie Parker-Lawrence’s book of hybrid haiku, householes, strikes a delightful balance between delicacy and power. The poet also walks the tightrope between the personal and the universal, and she does so in such a way that the reader follows anxiously along, breathless and captivated. At turns gentle, at times brutal, but always poignant, Parker-Lawrence has the gift of the simple line that says much. I hope this book portends the start of a long career of verse.”

–Corey Mesler, author of Cock-a-Hoop, and Take the Longing from my Tongue

“In short, impactful verse, Natalie Parker-Lawrence, shares the poignant and often gritty stories of Veteran Caregivers from around the country. The traditional haiku form evokes feelings about the natural world using a structure of stanzas and syllables. As if by necessity, Parker-Lawrence departs from the traditional haiku to share first-hand, vivid and heart-breaking accounts of those who’ve survived war and those entangled in its aftermath. Their explosive, shattering and gut-wrenching experiences refuse to be confined by poetic tradition and structure. No one touched by war remains whole. This collection has transformative power, taking us from despair to hope, if only in the knowledge that we are not alone.”

–Virginia Bryan is a retired attorney, arts advocate and free-lance writer. Her work appears in Distinctly Montana, Montana Magazine, Native Peoples and Yellowstone Valley Woman.

“householes stitches the weightless Haiku to the gravity of all that proceeds war with thread borrowed from the women yoked in the collateral damage of the military-industrial complex.”

–C. (Christine) W. Lockhart, PhD: LT, USCG (retired), Disabled Veteran & Caregiver, author of Blanket of Stars: Thru-Hiking the Camino de Santiago and Walking with Buddha: Pilgrimage on the Shikoku 88-Temple Trail

“In householes, Natalie Parker-Lawrence, uses the hybrid haiku form, inspired by the haiku poems Richard Wright produced in the last year of his life, and characterized by rhythmic economy, precision, and surprise. The poems are conversational, snatches of things the women said about their disturbing experiences, selected, arranged, and performed with a spring or turn at the end. The result is the poems linger with authentic power and speak of lives worth knowing.”

–Marcia Aldrich, author of Companion to an Unknown Story

“These poems are portals into the lives and harsh realities (the pills and whiskey and broken bodies) faced by female caregivers. The voices are raw and intimate, and made all the more real by flashes of startling tenderness. In this stunning debut collection, Natalie Parker-Lawrence’s miracle is her ability to conjure entire worlds with a handful of words.”

–Sonja Livingston, author of Ghostbread and The Virgin of Prince Street

“Deeply moving… often tender, painful, sometimes sassy and occasionally funny. Always raw and wise and honest. Some of it felt vaguely familiar. Much of it evoked sorrow and compassion for the lives represented to highlight the deeper challenges, emotions, of the Caregiver/Veteran experience. In many ways it felt very different from my own experiences. Ours, it appears, was a kinder, gentler journey. His PTSD manifested itself in quieter, more subtle ways. As did his dementia. There were definitely moments, increasing as he moved closer to crossing over, when he’d wake confused…still in a dream state…awaiting deployment orders from a Sergeant or some higher up. Often he’d see a young boy running thru a room (his younger self? I could only speculate). Because, the experiences captured felt, for the most part, darker, more painful than what I experienced with dad (with a couple of exceptions …ie, Ringo? … I wondered if the Vet had been a musician… loved that they’d called each other “Brother”)

–Chris Ciccarello, daughter and Caregiver of WWII Veteran

Azaleas for Lt. Jeong Taeeul: A close reading of Kim Sowol’s poetry in “The King: Eternal Monarch”

Korean Literature is divided into the Classical Period and the Modern Period. Literature under the Classical Period is heavily influenced by Confucianism, Buddhism, and to some extent, Taoism. The earliest form of literature came about in the 8th Century during the Shilla Kingdom.

The break-off point between Classical and Modern Literature is found in the Choson Dynasty which lasted from 1392 to 1910. Modern Korean Literature flourished when the Chinese writing script took a backseat to Hangul, the Korean alphabet. It was developed by King Sejong, or Sejong the Great, who ruled between 1418 – 1450. If you watched the first episode of The King: Eternal Monarch, that huge statue of a seated king in the middle of Gwanghwamun Square where Lee Minho hugged Kim Goeun without any warning? That’s King Sejong. Thanks to him, Korean language and Korean literature flourished.

Now, during the Choson Dynasty, two kinds of poetic forms came about— Shijo and Kasa and some of the most common subject matters from these poetic forms can be found in the Kim Sowol poems that were used in the kdrama, “The King: Eternal Monarch.” These are the themes of nature, grief, and the loneliness of traveling. However, when used against the backdrop of the drama, the poems, written during Kim Sowol’s lifetime between 1902-1934, take on a new life.

Let’s take a look at the poet’s life first and see how it informs our understanding of some of his poems. He was born in 1902 in an area that now belongs to North Korea. He suffered from a troubled childhood with a father who was mentally ill and beaten up by Japanese construction workers and therefore was unable to provide for his family. Kim Sowol was then raised and supported by his grandfather and his aunt. It has been said that it was his aunt who sang folk songs to him and told him traditional stories during his childhood and that it was this that stirred his love and talent for poetry.

But aside from poetry, he also loved a woman named O-sun. However, during their time, love rarely played a role in marriages and they were soon married off to different people. O-san then committed suicide at a very young age and losing her led to the first and last poetry collection that Kim Sowol ever published— “Azaleas.” His poetry carried the quality and rhythm that could be found in old Korean folk songs, possibly the ones his aunt had sung to him when he was a child. However, Kim Sowol found it hard to find his place in the world with just his poetry but without O-san. He committed suicide in 1934 at 32 years old. He remains, to this day, the most beloved Korean poet.

INVOCATION OF THE DEAD Kim Sowol

O shattered name!  O name parted from me in mid-air! O name without owner! O name I’ll call until I die!

The words left in my heart,  In the end, I wasn’t able to utter all. O you whom I loved! O you whom I loved!

The red sun is hanging from the western summit. The herd of deer also cry sadly.  Atop the mountain that has fallen off to the side, I call your name.

I call your name til I can’t bear the grief of it. I call your name til I can’t bear the grief of it. The sound of my call sweeps forward but sky and earth are too far apart.

Though I turn to stone standing here O name I’ll call until I die!  O you whom I loved!  O you whom I loved!

This poem is largely different from the rest of the collection because it is loud in its grief while the rest in the collection are like “Azaleas,” quiet, subdued and dignified in their sadness. In this one, the persona calls out to the beloved directly with lines that begin with an expulsion of breath and grief in “O,” and punctuated with exclamation points. But even in this intensity, the persona still can’t call out the beloved’s name.

There are several reasons for this. It pains the persona to even say the beloved’s name. Or it could be that the beloved’s name is as lost to the persona as the beloved is. Or it could be a staunch denial of the beloved’s departure. I’m going to go with the last one.

This poem is closely linked to the Korean pre-funeral custom called the Chohon, which involves calling out the name of the dead 3 times by the Sangju, the chief mourner who is usually the closest family member of the deceased. They go to the roof of their house, face north, and wave the deceased traditional shirt or blouse in the wind.

This stems from the Confucian belief that the human being is made up of the Hon (ethereal soul) and the Baek (corporeal soul) and the union of both is what keeps humans alive while their separation means death. The Chohon is then performed to keep the Hon from leaving the world because they hold on to the hope that they can bring back the soul to the dead. It is only when this ritual is finished that they can confirm the death of the person and then they can begin with the funeral rites.

Now, in the first stanza, “O name” appears 4 times in 4 different ways that can’t be called a repetition. The second stanza only contains 2 of the same lines with “O you” in it. The third stanza has one line with “your name” in it while the fourth stanza has only two lines with “your name.” The fourth stanza contains 3 lines but 1 has “o name” and the 2 have “o you.” The persona avoids the Chohon, even though the beloved is gone. By refusing to turn this into a Chohon, the persona evades thinking of the beloved as completely lost.

“O shattered name!” is a reference to the separation of the Hon from the Baek, resulting in the death of the beloved. “O name parted from me in mid-air” speaks of someone being gone too soon, someone who is only in the middle of his or her life. This could also mean that they are gone before the persona could even hold them, like a ball thrown in their direction and disappearing before it can be caught. “O name without an owner!” is especially painful because even though the name belongs to no one now, it’s still in the memory and on the lips of the persona.

The second stanza has many different translations but the gist of it means that even at this point when the beloved has been lost forever, without any hope of return, he still can’t bring himself to say the beloved’s name and complete the Chohon. He refuses to accept her death. Undoubtedly, this sentiment comes so close to Kim Sowol’s loss of his own beloved, O-sun.

The third stanza speaks of the setting sun and the lament of animals— it is grief found at the end of something. The top of the mountain replaces the roof of the house the persona should be on top of because they did not belong to a house, to anywhere, really. They probably belonged to other people too, like KSL and O-sun.

On the fourth stanza, the persona stands on top of that mountain, calling out the beloved’s name and hoping to bring back their soul, knowing it is impossible. The grief of this practice in futility comes to him in the realization that the sky and the earth are too far apart. No matter how long he stands there calling out her name, or how loud he can be, she will never hear him, nor return.

But even under the light of his sad epiphany, he remains steadfast in his love for her. He says he will call out her name until he dies, loving her and only her, for the rest of his remaining life and possibly even after death. It isn’t too far off to think that this may have been exactly what Kim Sowol felt at the death of his beloved.

Now, how does its use within the world of The King: Eternal Monarch add another layer to the poem. In the third episode, Lee Gon (Lee Minho) stood in the middle of a bamboo forest arguing with Jeong Taeeul (Kim Goeun) about his name. He’s trying to convince her that a parallel world exists alongside modern day Korea and in that parallel world, Korea is spelled with a letter C and operates as a Parliamentary Monarchy. He is also trying to convince her that he is the king there. Jeong Taeeul, being a police officer, insists on asking for his identification, his name, and he refuses to give it because there is a rule in Corea that no one is allowed to use the king’s name. At this, JTE makes fun of him and asks him if he is Kim Sowol, quoting the second stanza of “Invocation of the Dead” to him.

Spoiler alert, they eventually fall in love. But this moment leads LG to a bookstore in search for Kim Sowol’s one and only poetry collection, “Azaleas.” He finds it and opens it to the poem that JTE quoted to him. In the background, we hear Lady Noh, whom he eventually gifts the book to, reciting the poem. It switches to LG’s voice at the last line, indicating that he had read the poem as well. On screen, the frame is split between JTE and LG, directing the viewer to relate the poem to the pair of lovers.

The poem then acts as, of course, a foreshadowing of the events to come. Spoiler alert, no one died. So obviously, the poem does not act in its original capacity as some form of elegy for the dead. What it does do is drive home the point that LG and JTE are going to have a love that will be threatened by separation. Love between two people from parallel worlds with a ticking time bomb for a gate between them will not be easy. It will also be painful, should the separation be permanent.

Now, if one were to ask you, if you knew how painful this love was going to turn out to be, would you still have allowed yourself to fall in love?

LG’s answer will be a quick yes. He’s been in love with JTE for most of his life, and has literally held on to her name, by her ID, since he was 8 years old. JTE, on the other hand, took longer to gain access to, and use his name. He gives his name to her on the 5th episode, and she uses it to him on the 6th episode. She now has his name and will now know what to call out and hold on to, when she loses him in the future. Spoiler alert, she gets him back on the last episode.

So even though they don’t exactly lose each other like the persona and his beloved in “Invocation of the Dead,” or even Kim Sowol and O-sun, who lost their beloved to the sky while they remained on earth, the poem points us to a different kind of physical separation— that of two parallel worlds. While the persona in the poem vowed that he would defy time and space by loving her until his death, and even beyond, in the world within The King: Eternal Monarch, that vow was fulfilled. They found a love that could defy time and space.

(from Episode 10, The King: Eternal Monarch) *if anyone can help me find the title for this poem, I shall be eternally grateful to you ^_^ ---------------- by Kim Sowol

When the sun goes down over the white rapids, I shall wait by the gate. Between the shadows of the birds singing at dawn, I see the world brightening up In its still calmness. With my eyes fixated on the traveler passing by At the break of dawn, “Is that you?” “Is that you?"

By the tenth episode, LG and JTE have redefined and upped the game for long distance relationships. Much like the Kasa poems from the Choson Dynasty, the 2nd and 3rd poems used in “The King: Eternal Monarch” have grief and loneliness in travel as their subject matter. Long distance relationships have it easy now with plenty of choices for communication and travel (except now, with the ongoing pandemic). But one can only imagine what it was like for a lover to leave during the feudal Choson Dynasty. There is no assurance of a safe return, nor of an actual return. The waiting would seem endless without any word, just silence for months or even years. One can’t just text, “Where u?” every five minutes, or mark oneself safe during a village siege.

LG and JTE had to contend with this aspect in their relationship as both held important positions within their own worlds. Cellphones bought in one world would not work in the other. There’s no magic two-way mirror, faces in fireplaces for a Fire-call in the Floo Network or even owls, crows, or pigeons. Do despite being lovers in the 21st Century, LG and JTE’s temporary separations and the subsequent waiting in between visits feel like those from the Choson Dynasty.

This poem is a prime example of that with a persona who vows to wait for the return her beloved. She positions herself by the gate by sundown and stays there until dawn. She stays in the shadows of the birds who see the dawn before she does. This image is especially powerful in its quiet strength and fierce loyalty. The persona vows to wait for her beloved even through the darkness of the night. No matter how difficult or painful it is to wait, she will. And even if she doesn’t see the light of the dawn, or the end of this long night, she will still wait. She survives the nights of waiting by holding on to hope, despite the dire circumstance.

And life rewards her with the safe return of her beloved. It seems only fitting that this poem is read aloud during their brief reunion under a moonlit night in the bamboo forest. They are a long way from dawn, but hope and strength are there.

Note the way that Kim Goeun, who plays Jeong Taeeul, delivers her lines, “You’re finally here. Did you just get here?” as if they are the same line even though one is a statement and the other is a questions. Her inflections do not change. This echoes the last two lines of the poem, “Is that you?/ Is that you?” The repetition allows for a slight change in emotion— the first is a question, an expression of disbelief, while the second is filled with relief.

(from Episode 12, The King Eternal Monarch) *if anyone can help me find the title for this poem, I shall be eternally grateful to you ^_^ ---------------- by Kim Sowol

What is your reason for doing that? You were sitting alone by the stream The green grass was sprouting And the water was splashing From the spring breeze You promised that even if you go, You won’t be gone forever.

That is what you promised I sit by the stream each day And think about something endlessly

When you promised that even if you go, You won’t be gone forever Were you asking me not to forget you?

This poem plays on memory and remembrance. In the first stanza, the lovers are in the beginning stage of their relationship when everything is like spring— new, full of hope and potential for growth. While at this stage, it is easy to make promises like, “Even if I go, I won’t be gone forever.” It is meant to comfort the one who could be left behind. In the middle of bliss, that promise might sound comforting.

But as the poem progresses to the second and third stanzas, the persona is now alone on the same stream. No longer in spring nor the middle of bliss, the persona is left only with the vow that her beloved made to her. And it provides no sense of comfort. Instead, it makes her realize that the vow had been made as foresight. Her beloved must have known of his imminent departure and it was the only way he could ask her to wait for him— because every act of remembering him is an act of loving him. And when there is love, surely there must be hope for a return.

This poem is read by Lady Noh in background while LG and JTE are getting their picture taken— an act of remembrance, of keeping something frozen in time so that one can always remember the moment. Ironically, this is also the time when the world freezes. This is the side effect of one half of the Manpasikjeok crossing over into the parallel world. This is the moment that Lee Gon is made even more aware of their impending separation. The gate between the worlds is beginning to crack and the amount of frozen time keeps increasing with every crossing. Pretty soon, he will have to choose between righting the wrongs that Lee Lim created and staying with JTE. He is the King of the Kingdom of Corea— there is no question what his choice will be and he knows it.

He goes through all of these emotions in the hour that JTE and the rest of the world spends frozen in a smile. JTE is still in spring but LG is already far off into the future. But when the world unfreezes, LG slaps a smile on his face and has his picture taken with JTE. This is the perfect adaptation of the third and last Kim Sowol poem used in “The King: Eternal Monarch.”

AZALEAS Kim Sowol

When you leave, weary of me,  without a word I shall gently let you go.

From Mt. Yak  in Yongbyon  I shall gather armfuls of azaleas and scatter them on your way.

Step by step  on the flowers placed before you tread lightly, softly as you go.

When you leave  weary of me,  though I die, I'll not let one tear fall.

“Azaleas,” the titular poem of the Kim Sowol poetry collection, is not included in “The King: Eternal Monarch” but I think it is still important to discuss it as it relates greatly to the character of Lt. Jeong Taeeul.

Outside the context of the kdrama, the poem “Azaleas” has a persona who is the embodiment of dignity and strength in the face of utter devastation. The persona, by saying “When you leave,” shows her awareness of his inevitable departure. She knows in the future that he will leave her because he will get tired of her. And yet, she continues to love him.

And when that dreaded by unavoidable day comes when he leaves her, she vows to let him go as gently, and as lovingly as she can.

She promises to decorate his path away from her with flowers from her hometown. This is seen as an act of blessing. And although it’s tearing her apart in the inside, she refuses to let him know that him leaving is killing her. So it’s an even classier way of saying, “To the left, to the left, everything you own in a box to the left, don’t you ever for a second get to thinking you’re irreplaceable.”

Now, while Lee Gon doesn’t get tired of Jeong Taeeul in the drama, he does eventually leave her in order to save both worlds and right all the wrongs his uncle made. And in the 15th episode, when she finally realized that Lee Gon had made his choice and it did not include her in his world, she actually says the words, “I don’t think I can stay here and endure it alone…I think I’ll die.” Spoiler alert, she did not die. She does get stabbed though, but she did not die of waiting.

Instead, she found a way to get to him. Although it was unsuccessful, she did manage to kill Lee Lim of the present while Lee Gon killed Lee Lim in the past. She’s definitely not the type to spread flowers on the feet of the man who leaves her and then goes to cry quietly in the corner.

But the thing is, the azalea flower is the key to all of this. Azaleas are wildflowers that can be found in the deepest areas of forests that were previously destroyed due to deforestation or wildfires. According to “The Plant Book of Korea,” azaleas are known for their endurance and long lifespans.

So when the persona in the poem “Azaleas” spreads the flowers in the path of her beloved, she is reminding him that she will survive his departure. And when used within the world of “The King: Eternal Monarch,” Lt. Jeong Taeeul is the wild and resilient azalea flower. She will not stay in her place and simply wait for him to come back. She tried to find a way to get to him. And when that did not work, when being strong meant loving him even in his absence and waiting for him even if there was no hope in his return, she still mustered up enough courage and strength to love him and wait for him. And in the end, her strength and resilience were rewarded with the return of her beloved.

The gravestone of the day.

I found this marker in Simsbury CT on Weds, 3/13/19, around dusk. This grave is notable for it's ornate carving, the stylized soul effigy( the face has fallen off) and the amazing detail that went into the making of this stone. Two hands hold a heart, beneath the soul effigy. There were many stones by this artist at this cemetery. This marker is for Lt David D-- who died December 10th 1700 of the smallpox. Sadly this grave is in a severe state of decay due to the nature of sandstone graves which have a tendency to deteriorate and fall apart over the centuries. The side of the stone and other pieces have fallen off and now lie in front of the grave. Ok I will end this post with a translation of the inscription below the epitaph, a poem in three stanzas. I only figured that part out after noticing the small I, II and III above each section. One thing about carving inscriptions into stone: if you make a mistake you can't just hit the back button. I could not fully translate the final stanza so you will have to fill in the missing words for yourself.

" ye hollow Tomb and deep dark grave

preserve the mouldering Clay

Till Jesus Comes to call him hence

To Realms of bright day

The Widow mourns the Children Weep

And friends do drop their Teears

But faith beholds the Imortal Soul

Above all Mortal cares

III (incomplete)

Behold the S- may d- while

Bending before the Throne

Extolling - reign Grace"

team-mom-wannabe

replied to your post

“@team-mom-wannabe I think I found the lyrics/words to all the Russian...”

oh this is adorable thank you <3 (and sorry for bringing The Discourse into this blog last time i tagged you lol) I think it was, mh, Lady Capulet's part of la Vengeance (the song right after la mort de mercutio) and Tybalt's spoken part in the duel if there's any, AND now for... reasons I'd really like the first stanza of... I think it's probil chas? tybalt's solo before the duel

Discourse? Do you mean the Pechorin v. Dolokhov thing? Haha, that’s barely even discourse and it’s been a while since I’ve had a meta-producing W&P discussion, sot hat was actually kinda nice. Anyway...These aren’t like...poetic translations, I was focusing more on the more literal wording, which I assume is more of what you were probably looking for anyway...

Lady Capulet's part of la Vengeance

Tybalt! Tybalt! Tybalt! No!

And you, my husband, where were you while they grew?

You partied and gambled

Enjoyed the love of others

While Tybalt for the family’s honor fought

Tybalt is dead! He was like a son to me.

Go and take revenge, if you are still a man!

Tybalt's spoken part in the duel if there's any,

(I’m not sure which part you’re thinking of…if it’s the one right after Mercutio gets stabbed then…)

Why are you getting involved? (but ruder)

What’re you doing? It’s none of your business!

He’s hurt! He’s hurt!

There’s your hero!

Get up!

Get up, you crybaby little girl!

Tybalt's solo before the duel

Sister and brother – forbidden fruit

It’s sweet exactly because it’s out of reach

Such passions astir

I burn from jealousy, but she loves another!

There are many women and girls around

Who would go to bed with you

But only she who is my sister

Is my dream – an incestuous passion

Juliet, for God’s sake, why is the man you chose

The son of our enemy? Romeo, Montague’s son. The hour has come, the hour has come, the hour has come

Romeo, Montague’s son

Now you shall sleep forever

I am the prosecutor and my verdict is that he is filthy thief

This shame will only be washed away with the bastard’s death

Love is a prison and I am an inmate

This secret I shall keep until my dying day

The law says I may not confess my love

My blood boils, we shall fight today.

The hour has come, the hour has come, the hour has come

Jealousy burns my heart

My enemy deserves death!

I am the prosecutor and my verdict is: you’ll die like a thief

This shame will only be washed away with the bastard’s death

#team-mom-wannabe #romeo and juliet #romeo and juliett musical #op

Note

she jut anon messaged herself a post telling herself she was sorry for the hate just so she could garner sympathy but we in the LT fandom know her fucking game and its about time she owned up to it and altered her character to look different to stanza. this bullshit about her being based on herself is new and NOT what she said months ago when she admitted she was inspired by stanza!!!

Like I said in my statement:“-there may be similarities which people have been frantically pointing out in her character, but being inspired by something isn’t a bad thing. So long as people credit the inspiration and then eventually adapt it to become something entirely individual and unique, that’s good, right? After all, many artists begin with inspirations. Heck, even I began heavily inspired by Monkey Punch before I developed my own style!“

Kubernetes 1.16 released

Finally it’s the weekend. Peace and quiet to indulge yourself in a new Kubernetes release! Many others have beat me to it, great overviews are available from various sources.

The most exciting thing for me in Kubernetes 1.16 is the graduation of many alpha CSI features to beta. This is removes the friction of tinkering with the feature gates on either the kubelet or API server which is pet peeve of mine and makes me moan out loud when I found out something doesn't work because of it.

TL;DR

All these features have already been demonstrated with the HPE CSI Driver for Kubernetes, it starts about 7 minutes in, I’ve fast forwarded it for you.

At the Helm

Let’s showcase these graduated features with the newly released HPE CSI Driver for Kubernetes. Be warned, issues ahead. Helm is not quite there yet on Kubernetes 1.16, a fix to deploy Tiller on your cluster is available here. Next issue up is that the HPE CSI Driver Helm chart is not yet compatible with Kubernetes 1.16. I’m graciously and temporarily hosting a copy on my GitHub account.

Create a values.yaml file:

backend: 192.168.1.10 # This is your Nimble array username: admin password: admin servicePort: "8080" serviceName: nimble-csp-svc fsType: xfs accessProtocol: "iscsi" storageClass: create: false

Helm your way on your Kubernetes 1.16 cluster:

helm repo add hpe https://drajen.github.io/co-deployments-116 helm install --name hpe-csi hpe/hpe-csi-driver --namespace kube-system -f values.yaml

In my examples repo I’ve dumped a few declarations that I used to walk through these features. When I'm referencing a YAML file name, this is where to find it.

VolumePVCDataSource

This is a very useful capability when you’re interested in creating a clone of an existing PVC in the current state. I’m surprised to see this feature mature to beta before VolumeSnapshotDataSource which has been around for much longer.

Assuming you have an existing PVC named “my-pvc”:

apiVersion: v1 kind: PersistentVolumeClaim metadata: name: my-pvc-clone spec: accessModes: - ReadWriteOnce resources: requests: storage: 32Gi dataSource: kind: PersistentVolumeClaim name: my-pvc storageClassName: my-storageclass

Let’s cuddle:

$ kubectl create -f pvc.yaml persistentvolumeclaim/my-pvc created $ kubectl create -f pvc-clone.yaml persistentvolumeclaim/my-pvc-clone created $ kubectl get pvc NAME STATUS VOLUME CAPACITY STORAGECLASS AGE my-pvc Bound pvc-ae0075... 10Gi my-storageclass 34s my-pvc-clone Bound pvc-d5eb6f... 10Gi my-storageclass 14s

On the Nimble array, we can indeed observe we have a clone of the dataSource.

ExpandCSIVolumes and ExpandInUsePersistentVolumes

This is indeed a very welcome addition to be promoted. Among the top complaints from users. This is stupid easy to use. Simply edit or patch your existing PVC to expand your PV.

$ kubectl patch pvc/my-pvc-clone -p '{"spec": {"resources": {"requests": {"storage": "32Gi"}}}}' persistentvolumeclaim/my-pvc-clone patched $ kubectl get pv NAME CAPACITY CLAIM STORAGECLASS AGE pvc-d5eb6... 32Gi default/my-pvc-clone my-storageclass 9m25s

Yes, you can expand clones, no problem.

CSIInlineVolume

On of my favorite features of our legacy FlexVolume is the ability to create Inline Ephemeral Clones for CI/CD pipelines. Creating a point in time copy of a volume, do some work and/or tests on it and dispose of it. Leave no trace behind.

If this is something you’d like to walk through, there’s a few prerequisite steps here. The Helm chart does not create the CSIDriver custom resource definition (CRD). It need to be applied first:

apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1beta1 kind: CSIDriver metadata: name: csi.hpe.com spec: podInfoOnMount: true volumeLifecycleModes: - Persistent - Ephemeral

Next, the current behavior (subject to change) is that you need a secret for the CSI driver in the namespace you’re deploying to. This is a oneliner to copy from “kube-system” to your current namespace.

$ kubectl get -nkube-system secret/nimble-secret -o yaml | \ sed -e 's/namespace: kube-system//' | \ kubectl create -f-

Now, assuming we have deployed a MariaDB and have that running elsewhere. This example clones the actual Nimble volume. In essence, the volume may reside on a different Kubernetes cluster or hosted on a bare-metal server or virtual machine.

For clarity, the Deployment I’m cloning this volume from is using a secret, I’m using that same secret hosted in dep.yaml.

apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: mariadb-ephemeral spec: spec: containers: - image: mariadb:latest name: mariadb env: - name: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD valueFrom: secretKeyRef: name: mariadb key: password ports: - containerPort: 3306 name: mariadb volumeMounts: - name: mariadb-persistent-storage mountPath: /var/lib/mysql volumes: - name: mariadb-persistent-storage csi: driver: csi.hpe.com nodePublishSecretRef: name: nimble-secret volumeAttributes: cloneOf: pvc-ae007531-e315-4b81-b708-99778fa1ba87

The magic sauce here is of course the .volumes.csi stanza where you specify the driver and your volumeAttributes. Any Nimble StorageClass parameter is supported in volumeAttributes.

Once, cuddled, you can observe the volume on the Nimble array.

CSIBlockVolume

I’ve visited this feature before in my Frankenstein post where I cobbled together a corosync and pacemaker cluster running as a workload on Kubernetes backed by a ReadWriteMany block device.

A tad bit more mellow example is the same example we used for the OpenShift demos in the CSI driver beta video (fast forwarded).

Creating a block volume is very simple (if the driver supports it). By default volumes are created with the attribue volumeMode: Filesystem. Simply switch this to Block:

apiVersion: v1 kind: PersistentVolumeClaim metadata: name: my-pvc-block spec: accessModes: - ReadWriteOnce resources: requests: storage: 32Gi volumeMode: Block storageClassName: my-storageclass

Once cuddled, you may reference the PVC as any other PVC, but pay attention to the .spec.containers stanza:

apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: my-pod spec: containers: - name: ioping image: hpestorage/ioping command: [ "ioping" ] args: [ "/dev/xvda" ] volumeDevices: - name: data devicePath: /dev/xvda volumes: - name: data persistentVolumeClaim: claimName: my-pvc-block

Normally you would specify volumeMounts and mountPath for a PVC created with volumeMode: Filesystem.

Running this particular Pod using ioping would indeed indicate that we connected a block device:

kubectl logs my-pod -f 4 KiB <<< /dev/xvda (block device 32 GiB): request=1 time=3.71 ms (warmup) 4 KiB <<< /dev/xvda (block device 32 GiB): request=2 time=1.73 ms 4 KiB <<< /dev/xvda (block device 32 GiB): request=3 time=1.32 ms 4 KiB <<< /dev/xvda (block device 32 GiB): request=4 time=1.06 ms ^C

For competitors who landed on this blog in awe looking for Nimble weaknesses, the response time you see above is a Nimble Virtual Array running on my five year old laptop.

So, that was “it” for our graduated storage features! I'm looking forward to Kubernetes 1.17 already.

Release mascot!

I’m a sucker for logos and mascots. Congrats to the Kubernetes 1.16 release team.

Foto promontorio terracina-san felice dal tempio di Giove...Terracina(lt)IT La vita ē un grande diario, Scrivi quello che vuoi stasera, Di questo grande teatro E di quel poco che si avvera. E poi.... Correggi con la penna rossa Ciò che non c è e non c era. E ricordati sempre che da quella che sei Nasce qualcosa anche senza cercare.... C è chi ti scova a sorpresa Anche mentre mangi una mela ed Avrà il tuo cuore. Non serve un posto shick Ne un posto shock Ne per forza una vita in balera, Serve lasciarsi andare Meravigliarsi Per quel che c ē da fare ed inventare. Rivestiti in fretta o svestiti piano C è la luna ad osservare, C è un sedile sdraiato,una stanza lì a caso E Delle mani a fare compagnia. E .....ci sono unghie che graffiano,Delle menti che esplodono E poi troppe cose da raccontare Fino a fare mattino... E poi....chiudo piano la porta Per non farti svegliare. C è una luce che abbaglia tra sguardi, i denti bianchi e le stelle e un vociare soffuso, Mentre sono seduto, al tuo tavolino, Ed ho lasciato un bicchiere lì a caso, pieno, Per la fretta di amarci..... giocando un po a nascondino. Le coperte bagnate,le mascelle stanche Lo sai che a forza di ridere ē già mattino? Sarà passata un eternità o solo la notte Prendo le chiavi sul comodino. Ē sempre un arrivederci e mai un addio Mentre guido tra i semafori stanchi Ed ascolto anche io la tua stessa musica In un viaggio che dura un mi manchi. Rivestiti in fretta o svestiti piano C è la luna ad osservare C è un sedile sdraiato,una stanza lì a caso E Delle mani a fare compagnia. E ci sono unghie che graffiano,Delle menti che esplodono E poi troppe cose da raccontare... Fino a fare mattino...

gaahh I still can’t get over how pretty you are! Also, HI I MISS YOU!! <3

Aww thanks! That’s a rare one without the glasses, lol. They broke and I haven’t replaced them just yet. :) I’ve missed you too! Our last conversation really helped me a lot though. Thanks again for your help with that.

wow. this is fantastic.

Right? It’s really interesting to see the opinions in the book. Like it seems like everyone thought most of the world was gonna go Fascist vs Communist in the coming years with the US being a large unknown in that conflict. Compared to the big powers of Europe at the time we just were not as big of a factor on the world stage. WWII changed a lot obviously. I may post some more pictures with greater detail as I get into it more. I also have another book along the same vein that covers the first World War still need to have a look at. This is a heavy 300 pages though so one thing at a time.

msmidnightblondereplied to yourpost:

don’t think it’s shitty at all.

Thanks! I think it’s more I thought I’d end up making it longer but never could figure out another stanza. A lot of the poems I put in my scrap bin and label that way I think are more unfinished that actually super terrible or uncomfortably punny (though I do have quite a few of the latter).

stanza is a popular, beloved, cool character. she's not a mary sue, that's for sure! i really do like her a lot. but she's so popular and so defended by the fandom that people with other genuinely good lt ocs often feel like their ocs are stuck in her shadow. and that's through no fault of yours or hers, of course!! but her fans often take defensive extremes. i mean, my friend got kicked from a group chat bc they said they weren't a fan of her. it's not stanza's fault, it's the fans' faults.

(( And this is something I would not want at all. Your are never in her shadow. i simply play her for fun when I have the time between acting jobs and other work-related things. In fact, I only made this account back in March, so it’s pretty new.

Heck, come RP with her if you want to! There is nothing bad about being creative and your OCs are something to be proud of. Ignore the hate, move passed it. Use it to fuel yourself to dedicating more time into creating more content related to them! ))

Remembering, on 11-11 and always, our veterans' sacrifices

The poppy was adopted as the official memorial flower of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in 1922.

One century ago today, history's bloodiest war to date ended after more than four years of slaughter. The Veterans Day holiday was conceived as Armistice Day to honor the 4.7 million Americans who served — and the 116,500 who died — in World War I, or what was then called the Great War.

The original specificity has a solemn meaning. It marks the armistice between World War I's Allied forces and Germany ending the fighting on the Western Front at precisely 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918 .

Remembering Flanders Fields sacrifices: Perhaps the best-known commemoration of the lives lost during WWI is the poppy.

The flower, now seen on lapels worldwide every November, was immortalized in John McCrae's poem " In Flanders Fields ."

In addition to expressing the immeasurable grief over the "row on row" of graves of soldiers who had died on Flanders' battlefields, the poem also notes our global commitment to peace through sacrifice in its closing stanza:

"To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high! If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields."

Expanded to honor all veterans: Armistice Day kept its name and focus until 1954, when the Nov. 11 commemoration was changed in the United States to Veterans Day and its scope widened to honor veterans from all eras.

Overall, World War I took around 16 million lives, out of some 35 million civilian and military casualties.

The last American veteran of that war died in 2011, but the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that there are almost 19 million living veterans nationwide, including 7,200 from between the world wars.

Veterans and VA spending growing: The largest ever Department of Veterans Affairs annual fiscal budget was signed into law on Sept. 21.

The fiscal 2019 VA budget was an increase of more than 6 percent that pushes the agency's total spending over the $200 billion mark for the first time.

The bill includes $1.1 billion for the start of a VA electronic health records overhaul and $400 million for opioid abuse prevention within the department.

That money is vital since, despite no longer having a draft, the number of U.S. men and women who serve at least some time in our armed forces continues to grow.

The latest official count by the Census , using American Community Survey data collected from 2009 to 2013, shows that Alaska had the highest proportion of its population who were veterans, at 13.8 percent. Puerto Rico, at 3.8 percent, reported the lowest proportion of veterans.

Here in Texas, we have almost 1.6 million veterans.

You can get a look at the veterans' population where you live via the Census' graphics for each state , the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.

Veterans and taxes: Since this is a tax blog, I'm compelled to remind you that beyond tax dollars finally being spent on those who serve and sacrifice for us, there are other tax implications for veterans.

The most recent veterans' tax matter is the extended time period under which some combat veterans could file for refunds for disability severance payments under which they originally were shortchanged.

Those affected veterans need to file an amended tax return using to claim a disability severance payment-related credit or tax refund for the prior erroneously taxed payments.

Elsewhere in the tax code, there are several provisions that apply to veterans and current members of the military. They include:

Donate directly to veterans' charities

Special tax rules for military service men & women

Don't overlook state tax breaks for military personnel

Remembering veterans & helping smooth their return to civilian life

A salute, shout out and checklist for U.S. veterans

ETIC could help members of the military

Tax help remains for military moves

Mostly though on this Nov. 11th, which earns this week's By the Numbers honor, take a moment to remember those, to borrow McCrae's words, who loved and were loved and now lie in Flanders fields and elsewhere.

And if your veterans thankfully made it home after serving for the United States of America and indeed the whole world, give them a huge hug for all of us.
