happy @edelclaudeweek! day 1 / games

King Khalid was known to be an exceptionally skilled and exceptionally fierce takhteh player, and although rumours of him going easy on Emperor Edelgard circulated whenever she visited him, no one could quite believe them (for which he was secretly grateful)

The funny thing about the 'Chess Club' concept among some fans is that the board game item in question is likely Go judging by the flavour text.

as someone who has been involved in union organizing through my dad's union since i was literally in second grade, the way that people on tumblr think unions work drives me literally insane

[sadhoc]

unions do so much more than just strike. unions bargain. unions sit in at meetings with upper management. unions help people navigate benefits. unions coordinate aid drives for disabled members. my union ran a donations campaign for me for the interim between the end of my allotted paid leave and my disability claim

[sadhoc]

"unionize your workplace" means so much more than "talk to your coworkers about striking." you gotta actively know what a union is and what a union isn't before you can form one. calls to unionize should lead to more people learning their rights and learning how unions work, and coordinating with orgs like seiu and the teamsters and the aft (and if you don't know what those are, look them up).

[electricpentacle]

My union found me a legal expert to help me check over my last redundancy settlement for free, provided private medical cover whilst I was unemployed, and negotiated a good deal on cheap insurance for their members. It is so much more than strikes.

I am a bit surprised how the discussion about Margrave Edmund begins and ends at how he was a commoner who bought his seat on the roundtable. The thing is, that is an in-universe statement that ignores the elephant in the room; Marianne. Is it not convenient that the one commoner who is allowed to hold a title and sit amongst the nobility just so happened to choose his adopted daughter, who just so happens to have a rare crest, to be his heir. The only seat filled in by a commoner will be filled in by a socially acceptable noblewoman the moment the commoner dies. This, somehow, had no bearing on the decision to elevate the commoner in question.

It is also probably the big reason why Marianne has so much social anxiety around her crest and gets a bit testy around the topic of her adoptive father. I do think Margrave Edmund loves her, but there is a poison in the relationship; the Margrave initally adopted Marianne into his family because she was a ticket to more power and influence. That transactional aspect to their relationship looms over the two of them.

Mary Oliver on how differences bring couples closer together

[snow-nose]

transcript: along with the differences that abide in each of us, there is also in each of us the maverick, the darling stubborn one who won’t listen, who insists, who chooses preference or the spirited guess over yardsticks or even history. i suspect this maverick is somewhat the soul is, or at least that the soul lives close by and companionably with its agitating and inquiring force. and of course all of it, the differences and the maverick uprisings, are part of the richness of life. (highlighted:) if you are too much like myself, what shall i learn of you, or you of me? i bring home sassafras leaves and M. looks and admires. she tells me how it feels to float in the air above the town and the harbor, and my world is sweetened by her description of those blue miles. the touch of our separate excitements is another of the gifts of our life together. end transcript
