i love you

take care of yourself
do not be ashamed of grieving or crying or any of the reactions you have to the horrible awful news. do not be ashamed of how long it takes to do any of the grieving or crying that it takes to process the horrible news
you are not weak if you feel afraid. your fear is valid.
don’t lose hope. we are not alone and we are going take care of each other and build a better world. how is a technical question we can figure out past this night and maybe even this week, but we’ll figure it out. we’re too tired and scared to tolerate this shit anymore, and that’s going to be a good thing.
this is not the end of the world. there are too many people out there to let that happen.
it’s okay to not be okay.

On Spies (Personality)
“Intelligence work has one moral law—it is justified by results.”
-John Le Carre, The Spy Who Came In From The Cold. (10)
Spying is a difficult business. Writing about spies with any accuracy is also an incredibly difficult business; this is why the foundational giants of the genre from Ian Fleming to John Le Carre have been ex-intelligence. Without that background, it can be easy to misunderstand that the ability to be a spy comes from the tradecraft and the training. It’s common among writers to build the character first, then give them their skill set. While this will work for a vast number of different character archetypes, functional spies require a fairly specific outlook and it is developed by a specific type of background though that comes from a generic set of circumstances.
Spies can’t be good people and that’s okay, because good people can’t be spies.

There’s no such thing as the unknown,
only things temporarily hidden,
temporarily not understood.

Bond Resume
Home is Just a Safehouse
Prompt: ‘Sleep with fists closed and shoot straight’.
There’s no bed in her flat, only a mattress on the floor. No room for the monsters under the bed that way; all monsters end up out in the open.
In the window, there’s a telescope on a tripod. “For stargazing,” she’ll tell the visitors she won’t have. Telescopes don’t have the same zoom as a sniper’s scope, but it’s good enough to catch all lines of sight.
Her knives are in a drawer with bells attached. When she’s cooking, then there’s clanging, but if she isn’t, there shouldn’t be.
If she fortified her flat with fancy technology, that wouldn’t change how she needs to sit on the floor with her back pressed to the wall. (How else is she supposed to feel safe?) There are enough precautions, for now.
004 goes to sleep underneath a ceiling painted like the sky, and hopes she doesn’t dream.
(It’s nice to hope there will be no gunfire when she wakes.)

The military has created some sexy new stealth motorcycles
Back in 2014, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency gave out grants to build virtually silent electric bikes that could trek far distances without refueling. Now those bikes are here, and their capabilities are incredible.

A new oil painting has just arrived in what may be the world’s most clandestine art gallery — the fine arts collection at the headquarters of the Central Intelligence Agency.
This commissioned work isn’t your typical still life; the tableau is a busy clutter of gear — photos, blueprints, weapons and ammunition.
CIA museum director Toni Hiley says this painting — the 21st in the collection — is purposely complex. A Contingency for Every Action shows artifacts from major covert actions going back to World War II. “It’s what we call an Easter egg painting,” Hiley says. She calls it an “Easter egg,” because nestled within are little hints from missions that are still classified.
Unless you’re a CIA officer, you’ll probably never get to see the painting in person. Which might make you wonder: Why does the CIA have an art gallery at all?

重回汉唐汉服店
The Yuanlingpao/圆领袍 (round-collar robe) is a type of men’s Hanfu (han chinese clothing) that became popular with women during the Tang Dynasty. This Tang-style Yuanlingpao is from 重回汉唐, and can be found here.
Britain is not open about the stuff we’ve done at all.
Slavery is taught but that’s about it. And even then the focus is on “We stopped it”, often leaving out the part about profiting from it for 200 years.
The crimes in Ireland are only taught at A Level history, meaning that most of the public is truly ignorant of British colonialism in Ireland. A huge portion of the English public voted Cromwell to be one of the greatest Britons ever, and he committed horrific acts against Ireland and Scotland.
There’s little mention of any imperialism in Africa. When it was revealed the Mau Mau’s would be getting a memorial statue funded by the UK, people were outraged and basically denied that we ever did anything wrong. The Boer and Zulu wars are forgotten, especially the bit about the concentration camps.
There’s absolutely 0 public discussion regarding British imperialism in India. People’s knowledge seems to go as far as “We gave them trains so they should be grateful”. The British tied mutineers to cannons and blew them up. The Indian economy shrank under British rule more than any other nation in the modern era. From about 20% of global GDP (Similar to China and Europe) at the start, to about 1% at independence.
And that’s not even mentioning the Native Americans. Long before someone ever dreamt up the idea of United States, the European colonists were quite happy killing, abusing, and conning the natives.
There’s a reason another phrase for the Union Jack is “The Butcher’s Apron”. You don’t get to be the world’s first hyperpower without slaughtering a lot of people.
People really are awfully naive if they think the whitewashing of history happens only in one country.
Prime example of the British mentality is this: “we made their countries better”.
My dad has actually said that. Mention the war crimes, genocide, ethnic cleansing, and general horrific stuff and he gets genuinely angry with you. I’m sorry, but history is not there to be swept under a rug. If you want to celebrate how successful we were, remember who we were standing on to get there.
There has been no greater force of evil in the world than British imperialism.
