No One Talks About How Annoying It Is To Have Glasses And Headphones On...

Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat

I'm in class. Yes, again. I swear I listen (proof : i'm talking about it)

We just listened to Churchill's speech "Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat". Duuuuude ! He sound so much like Palpatine. I know it's not. But between the poor quality of the recording, and the accent -which was definetly intentional by George Lucas-, he sounds so much like him.

But yeah, that's all. I found that Churchill sounded like Palpatine ^^'

Just went back and saw that : Imma give you the Ao3 link :)

the infinite joy of being able to write a fanfiction FOR A CLASS !! With the teacher saying it is ok !! I love this.

some of my fav 'inconsistencies' between the prequel trilogy & the OT and by fav i mean i genuinely think these were good calls:

it is NOT normal for Jedi to become force ghosts when they die. that's like a brand new skill Yoda just unlocked. if Luke tried to tell ppl about Obi-wan's force ghost literally no-one, even ppl who were familiar w the Jedi when they were around, would know wtf he was talking about

R2-D2 knew everything that went down during the prequels and just opted not to tell anyone ever which is fully in-character for him

becoming a Jedi was a whole process involving 15+ years of training and formal trials to determine if you were ready for knighthood and then with Luke Yoda was just like 'yeah fuck it you're a jedi knight now. burn the jedi temple did. made up all the rules are. gives a shit who does.'

everyone just kind of forgot who the Jedi were within the span of a generation. love that.

Wait. So. I'm a history student, and right now, we're in modern history and talking about Christopher Columbus. Who wanted to go to India, by boat. How did he want to do that ?

Right. Travel around the Earth. Because Earth is round. And they knew that at the end of the XVth century.

Now. Explain to me, how the hell do people think the Earth is FLAT ??????

Like, If you believe that, I'm sorry dude, but you're dumber than an XVth century man (yes, many of them knew. I don't actually believe people thought the Earth was flat at that time. How did we end up thinking that again ? Like we knew it was round during Antiquity, through middle age -yeah, they didn't believe in heliocentrism, but the Earth was not flat- and now what ? I don't understand.)

I am terrified tonight.

Tonight, March 5th, my president talk to France. God, I am terrified.

What is going on in the world ? Between Russia, the US and now Europe ? Fuck, I am european. It terrifies me. He's talking about creating a european army, to 'defend'. But fucking hell ! you can just see he wants to go to war, so he can stay president longer !

I'm going to put what he said -cause I found it-, and put the translation for the non-french speakers : "C’est notre sécurité qui est menacée. Si un pays peut envahir un autre en Europe, c’est la paix qui est menacée" -It is our security that is threatened. If one country can invade another in Europe, peace is threatened- Yay, national security, how nice ! You're going to cost us. Even if he says that it wont, it will.

"La menace russe est là, et touche les pays d’Europe. La Russie a fait du conflit ukrainien un conflit mondial" -The Russian threat is there, and affects the countries of Europe. Russia has made the Ukrainian conflict a global conflict- New world war ? Welp, I'm studying history. Never really intended to live what I'm studying...

"Qui peut croire que la Russie d’aujourd’hui s’arrêtera à l’Ukraine ?" -Who can believe that today's Russia will stop at Ukraine?- They won't. Unfortunately, in my opinion, unless Putin dies -and even then, nothing is sure-, they will continue. They will be world war soon.

"Nous restons attachés à l'Otan, et à notre partenariat avec les États-Unis. Mais l'avenir de l'Europe n'a pas à être tranché à Washington et à Moscou." -We remain committed to NATO, and to our partnership with the United States. But the future of Europe does not have to be decided in Washington and Moscow.- This is probably the thing I agree the most : peace shall not be made outside Europe. It is not a matter from the US to decide who's right and who's wrong. It is not to the US to decide who wins or not. But, arms race is not the answer either. Unfortunately, it seems we do no longer have a choice.

And you know what's even more terrifying ? My brother. He listen, arrived arround half the speech, and then tried to tell us that it was not so bad. That the world wasn't changing a super speed. That, no, our president wasn't trying, in subtext, to invite more people to join the army. He does not believe war can start that fast -we told him he could'nt wait 'till he finished his masters degree at the speed the world is moving, he doesn't want to believe us.

I am shaking, 45 minutes after the speech begun. I am terrified. I feel like I'm going to throw up. I am simply terrified. I would love this text to be one of my dystopian creation. Unfortunately, it is the world today. And fuck, I don't want to be in that world.

Gotta love the double standard around this time of year...

When I was a kid my mom always told me that I'll never have to greet anyone by kissing (the cheeks people, I'm french.... We do 'la bise' -which I absolutely hate)

And now we're in route to see some family: juste got told that I HAVE to do 'la bise' to EVERYONE!

Mind you : I do not appreciate that side of the family, I am awfully neurodivergent, and already hate having too many people around me. I am in hell tonight.
