always enjoyed the Chess Set In The Foreground perspective framing used here

now also noting like, huh, a chess set in a general store just visited by marigold competitors who killed one of their guys and are now on the way back from their rendezvous point w/suppliers

#and now to take a big sip of ''nothing suggests lackadaisy ft. people stuck / things repeating / death begetting death'' #not like i suppose we're going to be hit with ''& then mordecai and viktor sat down at the defiance field office for every passing gangster #played chess and then went and properly slaughtered the lackadaisy crew and arbogasts at the funeral home / barn w/car-sized holes'' #good reminder though that Viktor Is Now Active....left off with elsa managing to give him a phonecall; for good measure #lackadaisy #i have no lengthy Mitzi Mordecai Murder Mystery Musings posts for today (b/c not enough fresh musing insights) but no prommies #epiphanies are on their own schedule #quite the chess piece arrangement seen there too lol. can't tell if there's any Classic Configuration in the game b/w viktor & mordecai #not a chesshead and never was lol strategy games??? who's that #or i'll play them but not strategically. invented Flick Chess for indoor recess in elementary school #you flick a piece across the board and whatever you knock off the board = you took those pieces lmfao #though not like that has Zero strategy. thinking of my day enjoying tiddlywinks research #imagine my delight revisiting all this material like oh yeah the little pic of freckle tiddlywinking #let's squop; boys #i'm also supposing that chess sets? checkers sets? and etc. would be common general store features; like phone usage....real general.... #but like; what; are we expecting this Not to bring a response from marigold lol #got the nervous twitch but they're like ''ah it's fine. cost of doing business''

You ever see an ask (for someone else) that so painfully needs the response of:

Are you 12?

Go outside more often.

Dear god who people think are in love with who literally doesn't matter if it's not the one you're into leave everyone else alone.

No seriously...it's all fictional...those two characters you like maybe or maybe not getting it on has very little impact on your life...so ????

Sending anon hate about it is kinda weird I'm ngl

The level of petty behaviour is why I don't participate in fandom really. I'm too old for this nonsense. I'm going to sit here and enjoy what I enjoy and you can go sit somewhere else.

#ship wars this is literally about fucking ship wars (not even problematic ones!) #girl if I told you every ship I thought was fuckin stupid I'd be here all day & I won't because it's none of my business telling people tha #I leave them in their own little sandbox while I play in mine #forcing people to conform to what you like and sending hate to those who won't comply is basically that thing you all go on about... #...you know the one. The one none of you like. The one about not picking on others because they're different. That one. #it's bullying babes and I'm not here for it #sorry I'm just frustrated because I'd been quite happily just chilling in a fandom for a bit and now the other side is being Weird As Hell

Someone made an angsty theory on the super mario bros movie tv tropes. That instead or their dad tbinkie hes bringing luigi down,that perhaps in some way he coddles luigi?

I dunno... Mario's Dad doesn't strike me as a coddler. If he coddled Luigi he wouldn't have been so blasé about Uncle Tony pulling food out of his hands during dinner, and wouldn't have had such an overwhelmingly positive reaction to Luigi helping Mario fist fight a giant fire breathing turtle monster.

Now, there is a chance he's softer on Luigi compared to Mario, but Mario's clearly the one leading the charge in their shaky business endeavors.

#askbox #anon #mario movie #mario headcanons #stupid is what stupid does but you can't deny Mario got really really lucky #quitting a steady job and starting his own business is kinda nuts tbh. At age 25 with very limited funds? In THIS economy?!? #I'm not big on Pio's choice of words but he's not wrong #super mario brothers #mario family

I'm sorry but you're either for Ukraine or for russia. There is no middle ground. I don't care what your normal politics are. This isn't about politics. This is about people's lives. About them not being taken over by a country that is not only bombing them but raping and torturing them.

If you don't think we should do all we can possibly do to stop such evil, you are on the wrong side of history.

#Ukraine #I'm serious stop with regular politics for a second #If your politics supports bombing innocent civilians then you really should rethink your politics #I could word this more harshly and more eloquently but I need to go to bed #Just. Look at it from Ukrainains POV once. #Empathy is a thing. #It is our business because russia is big and so Ukraine needs a lot of help #Also russia is not going to stop there #These people with their republican and democrat blah blah blah #Nope I'm not talking about American political race #There is more at stake here. #Any moral person will support the victim over the abuser. #And when I say russia I'm talking about the government and any z ppl and supporters #Not the dissenters who get 15 years for speaking out about Bucha #And the poets who atrack the war and get raped #Wake up people #Look at their reality and quit being so selfish #I'm glad I'm taxed so my tax dollars can go to Ukraine. #I gave #More than that #Which is only about 0.02 cents of average tax vs all the other gov services so.... #Balance #Fight where you want #But there is no option here. #Fight for Ukraine or fight for russia. #To not speak up is to be for murderers and rapists. #I will never back down and this is a thing I ams all should be mad about #How can you not care about them? #If you could help people in Iran wouldn't you? #We habe the opportunity with Ukraine to help but ppl are being such misers

the screw tourniquet, the HICKEY knife, and 19th-century women in trades

I'll be adding to this post as I find more details.

---

The same maker's mark decorates several recovered Franklin Expedition artifacts - including this tourniquet clamp recovered by Schwatka's 1879 expedition near Victory Point. (In this Petit-type model, a band would be threaded through the slots; the "screw" could turn, tightening the band around a limb, to stop circulation.)

("A Petit's-type wooden tourniquet screw clamp", Royal Museums Greenwich)

During the 2019 season, Parks Canada archaeologists observed another tourniquet clamp in the hold of the Erebus.

(I was slightly intoxicated when I first came across this image and thought it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen.)

("This Petit-type tourniquet was documented during remotely-operated vehicle exploration of the main hold, below the lower deck. It almost certainly fell into the hold from above." - Parks Canada)

Because the artifact hasn't been recovered, I don't know the maker - I'd love to have a different angle on this photograph to see whether there are differences between the Schwatka tourniquet and the one currently in situ on the ship. (The thread seems longer on this one & I'm having difficulty visualizing the upper platform.) If this one also contains a Millikin maker's mark, that might indicate that expedition surgeons purchased multiples from the same company. If it's a different maker, that's exciting too - it could mean new leads on business records that might link certain surgeons to certain companies.

Astute observers and fans of the show may notice that another key artifact bears the same mark - the HICKEY knife introduced through John Rae's 1854 expedition. ("MILLIKIN 301 STRAND LONDON" is stamped on the blade.)

("Knife", Royal Museums Greenwich. Several other knives associated with the Franklin expedition are also labeled with Millikin's mark; they have been conveniently grouped in the museums' online database.)

So who was supplying these tools?

In most of the interpretive texts accompanying these artifacts, the authors identify John Millikin, surgeon's-instrument-maker, as the manufacturer. According to Dr. Brian Stevenson's biography entry, Millikin operated a business at 301 Strand from 1815 to 1833.

(William Battersby made a claim in 2009 based on this info that the HICKEY knife was a repurposed surgical blade - I disagree, as Millikin also advertised himself as a cutler at several points in his career. I'm intrigued by the fact that there are multiple different types of instrument sourced from the same manufacturer, though. I'm currently scouring the internet for more information on who was doing the buying.)

Dr. Stevenson's biography also reveals a potentially fascinating detail: that John Millikin died in 1833, leaving his business to his wife Martha. "...that my said Trustees shall permit my said Wife she remaining my Widow to carry on my Trade or Business of a Surgical Instrument Maker and to use and employ for that purpose such parts of my personal Estate and Effects as shall be then used or employed as capital therein..."

(John Millikin's will, sourced by Dr. Stevenson through ancestry.com. Highlights mine.)

Stevenson notes that Martha would move the business to 161 Strand "between 1844 and 1847" and would ultimately still operate it under her husband's name until her death around 1854. Obviously, things can be obtained secondhand - but if these artifact instruments were purchased new in that 1833-1844 window, there might be a chance that these naval officers interacted at 301 Strand not with John but with Martha Millikin, surgeon's-instrument-maker.

The world of nineteenth-century trades in London is a large one, and something in which I have absolutely no expertise, but I'm always curious as to the involvement of women in medical- and surgical-related businesses. At any rate, I think it might add yet another layer of complexity to the Franklin artifacts. :)

maybe this week was rough but I hugged my mom AND my far-away brother AND my college best friend today so it's not all a wash at all.

#it's busy in my heart and my head and it's hard to rest! but that's just the way it is for everyone i know and love quite frankly #but there's beauty in all these hidden corners and babey i'm born to look and find them #hoping you're all having a good sunday night my dears <333
