i’m late too and not even a bit but here he is, ugly crying i would say

#sending prayers to them both 🙏 #sounds even funnier when said by an actual nation #kinda #i imagine like #this is halloween and Francis got called fascist by a bunch of some junior school kids while he tried and failed to trick or treat #bc he was encroaching on their loot #aph #hws #fruk #barbie 2023

Sleeping God, to see thee as thou once existed, with land and dream and devotion, We would give our mind…

#thinking about this godseeker quote #Unn dreamed and thus greenpath was made for her children to walk into the waking world #then came the Pale Mother—the White Root and claimed part of this land for her #they did not share a dream but Unn did not seek conflict #then came the Old Light's rage and it took her children away #her voice now too weak to call them back home #the prayers and dreams meant for the Green Mother misguided and consumed by the Forgotten Light #hollow knight #hollow knight unn #Unn #higher beings #hk white lady #white lady #hk radiance

The worst part about reading in a genre where you have low expectations (in this case, Christian historical fiction) is that when a book impresses you, you have no idea if it's actually good or if you're just overly impressed because it was a fraction of a degree better than the usual garbage.

#basically lately anytime i read a christian fiction book that isn't romance-based i find myself surprised by the quality #i do think that some christian publishers are getting better #and trying to tell stories that dig deeper into real faith and messy issues #instead of making only vapid squeaky clean prayer-filled tropefests #but i'm not sure *how much* better #because anything above the low bar feels like great literature #the most recent is 'in a far-off land' by stephanie landsem #and let me tell you setting the prodigal son in 1930s hollywood is a genius concept #i have some issues with the history and the mystery #but the characters! #it has been a long time since i cried this hard over a book #several chapters of solid waterworks #(and i also have the issue of figuring out if it's actually that moving or if i'm just hormonal/sleep-deprived) #i keep thinking about this book but also i worry about recommending because what if it's actually terrible by normal book standards? #(also the author DOES NOT understand the seal of confession and i was SHOCKED to find that she's actually catholic) #but also looking at the reviews makes it clear that if most of christian fiction is vapid garbage it's these reviewers' fault #here you have something that's digging into sin and darkness and justice and mercy and these people are just #'how can it call itself christian fiction if it only mentions god at the end?' #are we reading the same book this WHOLE THING is about god! and humanity and our fallen nature and how this breaks relationships! #your pearl-clutching anytime someone tries to get even a tiny bit realistic is destroying this genre #i'm gonna run out of tags so i'll stop now

ah i can only imagine the peace that comes with hearing that!!!!!

"For the first time in five months, a Palestinian activist captures the call to prayer in Northern Gaza, where the Occupied State of Palestine (OSP) has destroyed most of the mosques and continues to deprive residents of electricity and food, aiming to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from the northern parts of Gaza." from Call 2 Action Now, 08/Mar/2024:

"Despite suffering so much oppression and still having so much faith is truly powerful. This is what inspires us to keep fighting for a #FreePalestine and we will not give up!

❤️Every Friday, come together and double your prayers for the suffering people of Palestine and the Middle East.🕊️ Let us pray for peace across the world. 🌎

I bet you did the best you could today.

May you come to see that performance as the most any human could ever ask of you.

I bet you made the best choices you could with the information you have.

May you come to understand all the lessons the Universe has to teach you.

I bet you regulated your emotions with as much skill as you were taught by those who cared for you when you were young.

May you come to befriend your full spectrum of emotions and come to see them as helpful information that you engage with consciously and curiously.

I bet you cared for your body with as much love as you’ve been led to believe you deserve.

May you come to see yourself as deserving as much love as the whole Universe holds.

How does Gorseclaw view all this? Sure, he probably got a lot of good boy points with Starclan for what he did, but also the blood of most of his family on his hand, and also directly responsible for a curse, and also Skyclan came back anyways. What was his life in Thunderclan afterwards, does he regret this or does he stand by what he did?

He stands by it. He stands by it firmly.

Ripplestar and Spottedpelt attacked a Gathering. Their last ditch effort to pummel the Clans into submission and bring back people who were already gone. They would brutalize the people in front of them for those they had never met-- and they dragged rebels of every Clan into it, too.

They tried to use strength to get what they wanted and were outpowered. As was SkyClan. This is the way of the Clans.

Gorseclaw doesn't see himself as responsible for the curse. THEY did it. He did what he had to do and they couldn't accept it. Sore losers practicing dark magic, punishing him and his descendants through the generations...

You might think he has a ferocious personality, like Oakstar, Frecklewish, Tigerstar, etc. He doesn't. He has the composure of a businessman who made a descisive and painful choice. It hurt him to do what they compelled of him, and he blames them for all this grief.

He lived this way for the rest of his natural life, peacefully, rationally explaining away any guilt that nagged at him. He did what he had to. And when invoked by his descendants, he comforts them on that principle.

Do what you must, remember the cost, for others will also do what they must.

When SkyClan comes back and Cloudstar stands before him, Gorseclaw says nothing. So it survived, without Ripplestar to bring it back. Why should he feel guilt for this? It all turned out fine, and if it didn't, then they weren't strong enough to be fetched back in the first place.

I think, over time, he comes to be used by Clan cats as a God of Conflict with SkyClan. Invoking him in front of a SkyClan cat can be openly insulting, but is sometimes done in the face of SkyClan invoking controversial figures of their own-- Brokenstar, Spottedpelt, Ripplestar, etc.

Gorseclaw accepts this placement, not regretting or trying to discourage it. So be it. This shall be his role.

#better bones au #He kinda reminds me of the song Sympathy for the Devil #Unsure why though #I have to stress he's not really aggressive. But he will destroy you #With the same moral consideration of killing an animal. #He made his choice and betrayed his brother and killed his sister. And they made their choices in driving him there. #Why should he be ruled by guilt about it? He still believes he did the right thing #And others agree. They call on him. And he will answer their prayers. #BB!Gorseclaw #Ripplestar's Rot

While I hate hate hate that Carlos has to go through this heartbreak, here’s the

(Thick) Silver Lining PSA:

Carlos’s 2025 options before HAM->Ferrari deal:

Sign a 1-year extension to stay in Scarlet Hell, suffer

Stand up for himself and ditch for Sauber 2025/Audi 2026

Carlos’s 2025 options after HAM->Ferrari deal:

Mercedes

Red Bull

Sauber/Audi

Aston Martin

Literally

Every

Team

(That isn’t Ferrari or McLaren)

Make no mistake, Carlos is the top-rated free agent of the season (assuming Fernando isn’t free). This is fact and not opinion.

#sure there are other factors at play but you can bet your ass every one of those teams has called him #prayers for Carlos Oñoros’s sleep schedule #carlos sainz #carlos sainz jr

God barnsdall Oklahoma just got hit and I just saw a livestream where the only thing left of a mobile home was the porch and the cinder blocks. Whole house gone. No debris left. If you’re the praying type, keep those people in mind please.

#no need to reblog #I’m just getting some stress from watching the storms out #say a prayer though for those people and if you have a loved one in bartlesville or barnstall #call them #Oklahoma #storm season

| God, oh God

Lately, I have had this thought,

a worry, a misery, fastened in a knot,

In a web of fear,

In a whirlwind of despair,

oh God, oh God, oh God!

Darkness creeping into my veins,

Fogged vision, restless pains,

Silent whimpers, quite refrains,

Lost in the labyrinth, my mind enchained,

Oh God, oh God, oh God!

Darkest nights, cold and bleak,

Show me light, set me ablaze,

In your arms, the strength I seek,

Guide me through this hedge maze,

Oh God, oh God, I pray.

- Willow
