Soon….Soon I will make Slade ;3; and it will be glorious!
Well I didn’t get to Chorra and Kurn tonight, but I at least got 1920’s AU Neralya… er, sort of. Not sure she really came out too 20’s.. but it’s hard to combine styles sometimes. Also, I don’t think aliens would have the exact same fashion, even in a silly AU.
Her outfit has various influences, including working class 1920’s fashion(dur), old military attire, and of course turian attire… which is also kind of military, but still.
Not sure how successful I was, but it looks kind of neat I guess? Kind of reminds me of a fighter pilot getup or something.
And with that, I’m heading to bed, as I have work tomorrow and also I’m starting to feel like crap and have the sneaking suspicion I’m going to wake up sick.
Curse you, dirty con dwellers!
That…..that is just so badass ;3;
Omar Khadr, a sixteen year old Guantanamo Bay detainee weeps uncontrollably, clutching at his face and hair as he calls out for his mother to save him from his torment. “Ya Ummi, Ya Ummi (Oh Mother, Oh Mother),” he wails repeatedly, hauntingly with each breath he takes.
The surveillance tapes, released by Khadr’s defence, show him left alone in an interrogation room for a “break” after he tried complaining to CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) officers about his poor health due to insufficient medical attention. Ignoring his complaints and trying to get him to make false confessions, the officers get frustrated with the sixteen year old’s tears and tell him to get himself together by the time they come back from their break.
“You don’t care about me. Nobody cares about me,” he sobs to them.
The tapes show how the officers manipulated Khadr into thinking that they were helping him because they were also Canadian and how they taunted him with the prospect of home (Canada), (good) food, and familial reunion.
Khadr, a Canadian, was taken into US custody at the age of fifteen, tortured and refused medical attention because he wouldn’t attest to being a member of Al Qaeda, even though he was shot three times in the chest and had shrapnel embedded in his eyes and right shoulder. As a result, Khadr’s left eye is now permanently blind, the vision in his right eye is deteriorating, he develops severe pain in his right shoulder when the temperature drops, and he suffers from extreme nightmares.
He has been incarcerated at Guantanamo Bay since 2002, suffering extremely harsh interrogations and torture (methods), and is now 25 years old.
How can they justify shooting and imprisoning a CHILD
normalized psycopathic behavior at the national level.
This is seriously serial-killer level torturing shit. If a single person did this, capturing a teenage boy and keeping them locked up and treating them like this, we’d call them a serial killer, a predator, a sociopath.
But when the government does it and has several individuals on a lot of levels making it happen, suddenly it’s okay.
Why the hell isn’t this on front page news?
Hey I’m all for getting the bad guys but fuck, he doesn’t sound like a bad guy let alone is in a good enough condition to even be one anymore >:I. I mean jesus man what’s this make the US look like? Fucking monsters that’s what! I don’t condone this shit, it’ inhumane and just cruel. God I feel bad for the poor guy I couldn’t imagine going through that kind of Hell.
The Loneliest Whale in the World.
In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem:
She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.
Just imagine that massive mammal, floating alone and singing—too big to connect with any of the beings it passes, feeling paradoxically small in the vast stretches of empty, open ocean.
That’s the saddest thing I have ever heard! Just makes me want to crawl into bed with a bucket of ice cream right this minute. However, I must say that sometimes life seems to be this way; you call out for others to hear you, to see you, to understand you but no one seems to hear you, even though there seems to be a million people around.
I’m gonna go cry now.
Heartbreaking.
I’m gonna go cry like a big baby now that’s…..freakin depressing ;3;.
justicars-have-more-fun has fueled my headcanon of the Avengers/Mass Effect merging together. Debating if I should start to write it out or not, I am pretty good at crossovers.
WRITE IT UP FOR THE ENDING DLC.
