I Think The Great Thing About Seeing Enjolras As The Personification Of Revolution Is That As Logical

I think the great thing about seeing Enjolras as the personification of Revolution is that as logical and cruel as he can be, he is still caring, he doesn't enjoy violence, he's capable of so much empathy and forgiveness...

If revolution were to be a person, I think it's so beautiful to think of them as compassionate.

“Give To This Dog Son Of A Wolf A Human Face, And The Result Will Be Javert.”

“Give to this dog son of a wolf a human face, and the result will be Javert.”

I think a lot about the folkloric story that Victor Hugo describes (or invents) in Les Mis, that uses dogs/wolves as a metaphor for that way that Inspector Javert betrays his own social class. It feels very fairytale-like, so here’s a Lotte-Reiniger style adaptation. Many thoughts, many emotions. I may animate this eventually. (And thanks to @valvertweek for the motivation!)

"Nadirinig Mo Ba'ng Madla?"

Several years ago, mayroong Filipino cover ng "Do You Hear the People Sing?" sa YouTube titled "Nadirinig Mo Ba'ng Madla?" na ngayon ay deleted na dahil deleted na rin ang mismong channel. Iba ito sa "Di N'yo Ba Naririnig?" translation na mas kilala bilang isang protest song. Gumamit ng mga clips mula sa Heneral Luna ang video ng "Nadirinig Mo Ba'ng Madla?" Gusto kong malaman kung may nakapag-archive ba nito, o kung active pa sa social media ang nag-cover nito, o kung may nakapag-transcribe man lang ng kumpletong lyrics. Ito ang lyrics ng chorus: Nadirinig mo ba'ng madla? Awit ng bayang nasadlak Tumatanggi sa panlulupig At muling pagkabihag 'Pag ang alab ng dibdib Tumaginting nang dalisay Siyang hudyat ng isang Bagong bukang-liwayway

Unfortunately, hindi ko tanda ang lyrics ng unang verse. Pero tanda ko ang second verse: Ikaw ba'y namamanata Sa bandila't bayan mo? At babangon sa digmaan Sa hilahil at unos? Sa'ting dugo't pawis Ang bayan ay matutubos! May kaunting pag-sample ng Lupang Hinirang bago ang huling chorus na may ibang lyrics. Hindi ko tanda ang kabuuan ng huling chorus; naaalala ko lang ay "Nadirnig mo ba'ng madla/Awit ng bagong pag-asa" sa umpisa at "Pagkasikat ng araw/Tayo'y malaya na!" sa dulo. Sa ngayon, tinuturing kong lost media ang kantang ito.

internet politics and real-world politics have gotten so separated, and pretty soon all this internet weirdness is gonna come crashing into real life and politicians are gonna start throwing around words like “SJW” and “anime communist” and “dark enlightenment” and it’s just gonna be the most ridiculous fucking thing

A black and white comic page. At the top is a panel of a man watching two people pull up nettles with the words "One day he saw some country people busily engaged in pulling up nettles". Below that is a drawing of two hands holding a dried nettle stalk and the words "he examined the plants, which were uprooted and already dried, and said: 'They are dead. Nevertheless, it would be a good thing to know how to make use of them."
A black and white comic. In the first panel is a steaming bowl in front of a chair on a table with the words "When the nettle is young, the leaf makes an excellent vegetable." In the second panel is a close up drawing of a person's hand making cordage with the words "when it is older, it has filaments and fibres like hemp and flax." In the third panel a woman is holding up a sheet of fabric as if to fold it, with the words "Nettle cloth is as good as linen cloth." In the fourth panel a chicken is pecking at the ground with the words "Chopped up, nettles are good for poultry." At the bottom of the page is a drawing of nettles in a basket and the words "With the exercise of a little care, the nettle could be made useful;"
A black and white comic. In the first panel, a doorway in a brick wall is partially overgrown with nettles and has the words "it is neglected." In the second panel there is a hand with a rash and the words "and it becomes hurtful." At the bottom, from left to right is drawn a scythe, a dead nettle lying on the ground, nettle stumps, and some living nettles, all with the words "It is exterminated"
A black and white drawing of a man in early 19th century clothing, in his shirt sleeve and holding a hat, looking at a nettle plant. Words read "How many men resemble the nettle!"

He added, after a pause: “Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.”

I Can't Believe It Took Me 12+ Years Of Being In This Fandom To Cross Over With My Favorite Movies Of

I can't believe it took me 12+ years of being in this fandom to cross over with my favorite movies of all time. Enjolras and Grantaire as....Elfjolras and Hobbitaire. Look he's just a little guy okay.

I love Lord of the Rings as much as I love Les Miserables I just don't talk about it as much as I should.
