THE MANDALORIAN CHAPTER 9: THE MARSHAL

"I’ve never met a real Mandalorian. Heard stories. I know you’re good at killing. And probably none too happy to see me wearing this hardware."

“Use your gifts and your talents to greatest possible effect while you can. Spread joy wherever possible. Laugh at jokes. Tell jokes. Make puns and bugger the embuggerances. Read books. Read my books. You might like them. You might find something else you like even more than them. Look for these things in life.

Question authority. Champion good causes. Speak out against injustice. Do not tolerate bullies or bigots or racists or anti-intellectuals or the narrow-minded. Use your education to challenge them. Broaden their perspectives. Make the world you interface with a happier place.

These are your choices. Choices you have been fortunate to have been given, so don’t waste them while you have them. Don’t look back in years to come and wish you had grasped a fleeting opportunity. Grasp it now with both hands, Live. Strive. Love.”

from A Little Advice for Life taken from ‘Terry Pratchett: from birth to death, a writer.’

—Sir Terry Pratchett; April 28, 1948 – March 12, 2015

One of the greatest compliments I've ever received is that I resemble Sam Vimes.

Mind how you go.

[greenvillegreengirl]

Happy birthday to Sir Terry. Mind how you go.

[177-empirical-crescent]

Sam Vimes, my beloved.

Sam Vimes, who was an alcoholic but found a reason and a purpose.

Sam Vimes, who was drawn from the bottle to a crime.

Sam Vimes, who stood up and became a leader.

Sam Vimes, who failed and would have given himself to the Gonne, but was saved by a myth disguised as a man.

Sam Vimes, who realised he was wrong and risked it all to uphold the humanity of what everyone else saw as a piece of clay.

Sam Vimes, who chose to chase a criminal and in doing so stopped a war.

Sam Vimes, who died in that other reality.

Sam Vimes, who killed a werewolf with his bare hands to protect the woman he loved and the officers he was upholding,

Sam Vimes, who wanted to beat a torturer to death but saw himself staring across the room and across the years and had mercy.

Sam Vimes, who saw a murdered (goblin) girl and said "NO"

Sam Vimes, who knew "perks" were part of life, and comforted the girl who had killed her family unintentionally with them.

Sam Vimes, who saved the blacksmith who wanted to defeat him.

Sam Vimes, who showed me that even though I saw myself as a failure, as fallen - I could still change and make change.

To Sam, and to Terry - thank you.

I meant to post this photo after completing my reread of Maskerade & before starting Feet of Clay, but I forgot.

I love that Sir Terry actually did a special author photo in honour of Maskerade's opera theme. More than you can ever imagine.

GNU Terry Pratchett.

"And there's the sign, Ridcully," said the Dean. "You have read it, I assume. You know? The sign which says 'Do not, under any circumstances, open this door'?" "Of course I've read it," said Ridcully. "Why d'yer think I want it opened?" "Er... why?" said the Lecturer in Recent Runes. "To see why they wanted it shut, of course."* * This exchange contains almost all you need to know about human civilization. At least, those bits of it that are now under the sea, fenced off or still smoking.

— Hogfather (Discworld series) by Terry Pratchett

[zakalwe-the-ninth]

So Vimes and Vetinari have both been delisted with the assassins guild, but I like to think they also refuse to accept any contracts for Sybil, because nobody wants to find out what happens if you fridge Sam Vimes' wife / Vetinari's oldest friend.

Talk about smashing the board.

[johntherobotwanderer]

Discworld book where the auditors hear about the phrase "it's not over till the fat lady sings" and hire someone to kidnap all the fat ladies in the world to find the One who will end the world when she sings.

Lady Sybil Vimes is one of the ladies, so Sam Vimes is on the warpath until he can find her, while the watch desperately try to keep all infrastructure from falling apart without all the fat ladies who keep it together on a daily basis

It ends when Sybil leads a hoard of fat ladies into battle, which ends up being so glorious an unrelated time traveler who witnesses it goes back to his native time starts the myth of the Valkyries

[i-am-the-guarding-dark]

i just think it really says something about Sir Terry's view of the world etc. that every time he puts a character in front of you and posits them as The Good One, it's never the character who always thinks good things. it's the one who has grit in their soul and thinks bad things but never lets the inner bastard win.

Carrot is a force for good without a doubt, but he is not the Good Man in Ankh-Morpork. Vimes is. Vimes who is deeply suspicious of just about every group in the city, Vimes who constantly has to reexamine his beliefs and prejudices, Vimes who really really wants to kick the shit out of the bad guys but never lets it happen. If you'd do it for a good reason, you'd do it for a bad one.

And it happens again with Granny Weatherwax - the one who wanted to be evil, who can feel the evil nagging at her every day, who nevertheless holds the line.

idk something about how being a good person doesn't mean being perfect or idealistic or even particularly nice. it's just about doing The Right Thing, over and over again. it's about who watches the watchmen? that would be me. ah, but who watches you? I do that, too.

Museum Asks People To Recreate Paintings At Home, Gets 30 New Impressive Photos

It appears that boredom lies behind the most creative ideas. That's why quarantine has produced some of the most entertaining activities. One of them is the Getty Museum challenge, that so many of you have already seen in our previous article here.

Narcissus taking a selfie is the ACTUAL best.

These are REALLY cool

[notallfay]

These are art in themselves, in a some of them point out what lockdown was like for us, they’re expressed themselves in a really cool way. But I think these are going to be talked about in the future.

[barbwritesstuff]

I remember seeing these in 2020. I think they’re one of my favourite examples of pandemic art.
