The more I learn about Civil War politics, the more I'm convinced that Lincoln's most impressive and useful leadership trait was that he never let his pride get in the way of doing his job.

Other people in Lincoln's position would have come to Washington with something to prove. They'd have resented the insults and tried to disprove them. They'd have tried to seize power and credit, rejected help, spent a lot of time trying to reach a certain level of respect.

Lincoln's response to, "You're just a backwoods lawyer with no executive experience who makes too many dumb jokes," was pretty much always, "Yeah. And?" He had no interest in petty personal power plays. He had a country to run. There was a war on. It didn't matter what people thought of him so long as the job got done.

He was aware of his personal shortcomings and was always willing to accept advice and help from people who had more knowledge and experience in certain areas. He presided over a chaotic Cabinet full of abrasive personalities who thought they were better and smarter than him, but he kept working with them because they could get the job done. For example: Stanton was absolutely horrible to him when they were both working as lawyers. Just incredibly mean on a personal level. But when Lincoln needed someone to replace Cameron, he swallowed his pride and appointed Stanton as Secretary of War, where Stanton proceeded to be mean to everyone in the world, but he whipped that department into shape and kept it running efficiently through a very chaotic war. Pretty much no one except Lincoln would have been able to put up with that. He could put up with people who were personally difficult if they could do the job he needed them to do--which he was only able to do because his own ego didn't get in the way.

Lincoln's example is a prime demonstration of how humility isn't underrating yourself--it's being so secure in your own abilities and identity that you don't need to attack anyone or defend yourself to prove your worth. He knew his shortcomings, but he also knew his strengths. He was willing to give other people credit for successes and take blame upon himself for failures if it kept things running smoothly. He was secure enough in his own power that he could deal generously--but firmly--with people who tried to undermine him. In a city full of huge egos, in a profession that rewards puffed-up pride, that levelheaded humility is an extremely rare trait--which is what made it so impressive and effective.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #so i went to a teeny backwater thrift store today #their tiny history book section just happened to have an old lincoln biography #i opened to the page about the cabinet #which describes the situation like 'seward was calling himself premier and lording it over everyone'#'blair was causing problems everywhere'#'welles was insulting everyone in his diary and especially hated stanton grant and seward'#'and stanton hated absolutely everyone in the whole wide world'#and as i was reading this i was internally kicking my legs with excitement and cackling with glee because this is the good stuff #i don't know why but i love these horrible petty men #they're like a bunch of raccoons fighting over territory in a dumpster fire it's so great #i read the whole chapter right there in the store #and it impressed upon me yet again how impressive lincoln was to put up with all these guys #(the writer was a bit simplistic and made a lot of these guys come off as worse than they were)#(like he made seward sound like a complete incompetent when he was a pretty good secretary of state)#(he had some grandiose ideas but the man deserves a lot of credit for keeping england out of the war)#(but for a one-chapter summary of these guys it wasn't exactly wrong and it was a ton of fun)#i very much did not want another book especially another american history book #but it was only fifty cents and i have a pouch full of spare change #and the writer's style was so much fun that i decided to take the book with me #i don't plan to read the whole thing (i'm sick of lincoln bios) but it's fun to dip into for things like this #and i had to talk to you about it

Ok so the basic premise of my Prime Bros universe that I've creatively dubbed "The same but different" so far goes like;

Nine is eventually left alone in the Grim, some angst happens and he spends a few days alone in there until he says fuck it and braves the Void to get into Green Hills since he has only to gain and nothing to loose hoping that Sonic would somehow be accepting of him there. If not then he'll just figure something else out.

Sliiightly retconning the ending by saying the energy shockwave was caused by Nine breaching the shatterverse gate, but Sonic and the gang don't know that as of yet and go investigate any possible threat that could've emerged again.

They find Nine in the cave and que in the last 5 seconds of the Nimona movie with Sonic as Balister.

Since Sonic hasn't had the opportunity to share his adventure stories with his friends yet, they're confused asf as to who that fox is and why is Sonic so excited to see him.

Explanations, settling in and all that jazz happens. Tails is super stoked about the whole contained multiverse concept that Nine apparently knows so much abt and wants to figure out a portal. Nine is reluctant at first cuz he literally just got out of there and barely survived giant purple rocks floating about the void with zero natural resistance to slow them down. And another thing is that they're severely lacking in paradox energy.

Despite all that, Tails somehow manages to convince him on a mission to rob Shadow's house and quite easily find the paradox prism hidden in a box labeled "Do not touch. That means you, Sonic" (Yes I was serious about that poll)

Somewhere around that scene is when Shadow actually gets a punch in on Nine while Tails manages to grab just enough energy from the prism to manage experimenting with it, and eventually with a little assistance from Nine, succeed at making a portal.

—

And I thinks that's about all for now that makes sense and I can put to words. This is like, the first 3 maybe 4 chapters? I just uhhhh gotta iron out the details!! And there's no real ending in mind cuz I'm only being silly with an idea. (Please brain don't make me switch fandoms as soon as the first chapter is out istg you've done that one too many times-)

#sonic prime #prime bros #I'm trying to write the actual thing but!!! It's kicking my ass!!! Writing hard asf how do you guys do it #I'm imagining each chapter might get a little illustration to go along with it but idk how long I'll be able to keep it up #One is almost done and the other is yet to become a sketch but I'll get there #hopefully #lord give me strength #miles nine prower #nine the fox #miles tails prower #sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #the same but different

i should probably be practicing how to draw yuder given i'm having a hard time w/ him but kishiar,,,

open for better quality | no reposts

#kishiar la orr #turning novel #터닝 #fanart #myart #doodle #almost 200 chapters in and i am frothing at the mouth about the sword scar scene where kishiar explains why he needs yuder by his side #the tension and loyalty and guilt between them makes me sick (keep it up guys)#i have so much going on today and i definitely spent too long on the screen reading yesterday so i probably shouldn't continue today #however. this story hasn't left my head for a second #i even went out for a walk yesterday and my mind kept drifting back to it #truly i have not felt this level of insanity since i read t.gcf #tldr. i need somewhere to scream about this but instead i drew kishiar #he is not a green flag he's a literal forest and i love that about him #edit: just read chapter 200. good lord. i am never gonna be over this

every time i write the black brothers interacting it like carves out my insides and i gotta take a few minutes away from the doc.

like regulus’ lack of a support system compared to sirius and how they’re both still fucked either way. and they’re being driven apart by so many outside influences but only point fingers at each other. and every time sirius looks at him at first he sees regulus the way he was before he changed but he blinks and sees a stranger now

#black brothers #sirius black #regulus black #the marauders #marauders #nowhere man #LIKE I FEEL SICK #i think some of these only apply to my fic but GUYS #i’m sorry i just wrote the worst argument ever that no one will see for another 20 chapters #‘his little brother looks like he’s gone somewhere else’ OOOH LORD

I had an idea to write something about my sweet, hot Obscure Blorbo Guthláf and how much his boyfriend (sweet, hot Obscure Blorbo Wídfara) desperately worries about him because of how incredibly dangerous it is to be a banner bearer, and then I sat down and somehow wrote five straight pages in, like, an hour, which is UNHEARD OF for me.

And, I don’t know, but I think they might be my life now? I might write a freakin’ novella about the doomed secret love story of these two Rohirrim who, collectively, appear in about half a dozen SENTENCES in all of Lord of the Rings. Which is an objectively unhinged thing to do, and yet…I’m into it.

(Reminder that this is Guthláf if you don’t believe me that he’s hot:)

#lotr #lord of the rings #tolkien #guthláf #wídfara #rohan #obscure blorbos in love #guys in canon for a few sentences #but in my mind for chapters and chapters

OT5 BAND AU SERIES???? guys.

theyre one of those bands, the ones made in an old dusty garage sort of deal 😭 but instead of letting it go they all decide collectively to sort of yk basically invest EVERYTHING in the band lol like 3/5 are college dropouts but at least they have the safe net of yeonjuns rich family (if you consider an estranged family who basically disowned u a safe net😭😭). too bad they get horrible gigs and are total flops despite being decently skilled🥲

#PLEASE #WHY DID I GASP AT THE IDEA POPPING UP #in my head #omg #but #imagine #6 chapters and like #everyone gets to choose who mc ends up with #guys #oh lord #all they need is proper management yn help them out😩

Javert, busting an entire crime gang in the sassiest way possible, telling a criminal not to shoot him because the gun will misfire, thus making the criminal try to shoot him but the gun misfires (probably making all the criminals believe he has supernatural abilities in the process), before naming every single one of the masked criminals correctly without even lifting their masks:
