Jasper's Wandering Dream

Lost in the wilderness of life. They/He. Whatever beauty catches my eye, or my heart. Might be NSFW, but usually that's another tumblr. Mostly reposts, but sometimes my own photos, words, or composite fine art pinups.

Затонувшая мечеть из турецкого города Халфети.

Халфети — это небольшой город на юго-востоке Турции, расположенный на берегу легендарной и самой большой реки Западной Азии Ефрат, он является одним из самых старейших городов Турции. Предположительно, его основали ассирийцы в 9 веке до н.э. и он, на протяжении свой жизни, был колыбелью для многих цивилизаций.

Но, кроме богатейшей истории, Халфети известен во всем мире благодаря своему «подводному городу» и является центром притяжения дайверов со всего мира. Дело в том, что в результате строительства водохранилища Биреджик, в 1999 году водами Ефрата был затоплен старый район города – Савашан Кёй. И сейчас, сквозь толщу воды, можно увидеть погребенные дома, строения, деревья, школы и мечеть, чей минарет по сей день выступает из воды на достаточно большую высоту.

A sunken mosque from the Turkish city of Khalfeti.

Khalfeti is a small town in southeastern Turkey, located on the banks of the legendary and largest river in Western Asia, the Euphrates, it is one of the oldest cities in Turkey. Presumably, it was founded by the Assyrians in the 9th century BC.e. and throughout his life, he was the cradle for many civilizations.

But besides its rich history, Halfeti is known all over the world for its "underwater city" and is a center of attraction for divers from all over the world. The fact is that as a result of the construction of the Biregik reservoir, in 1999, the old district of the city, Savashan Kay, was flooded with the waters of the Euphrates. And now, through the water column, you can see buried houses, buildings, trees, schools and a mosque, whose minaret still protrudes from the water to a sufficiently high height.

There are a lot of people who start creative projects with no business or financial plan, because "who cares, it isn't important, we'll figure that out later". And you can't let yourself become that person. Not because I'm a sneering finance bro who thinks your woke animated youtube series wont make money, but because if you don't you'll wind up financially exploiting your friends for years

[mollyjames]

Look, it's none of my business if you wanna work yourself to the bone for no money so you can make your dream project a reality. I think you shouldn't, but also let's be real that's basically a rite of passage for young creatives. But as soon as you start involving other people? You need a plan. You need to be able to compensate them for their time, and you need to have it in writing

[song-of-the-spheres]

head in my hands, as someone who does extensive freelance TTRPG work - an industry in which the vast majority of those involved are doing it as a passion project/side hustle, and in which many people are friends with those they work for and with:

if you are doing any creative project with someone else in which money will be involved, make a contract. Doesn't need to be super formal. Get something laid out in writing that very clearly indicates what the person you are asking to do something is responsible for, the timeline in which they're expected to complete it, and the compensation they'll get for doing so.

"oh but we've been best friends since eighth grade" make a fucking contract.

"oh but this probably won't make much money anyway" make a fucking contract.

"oh but I don't know all that legalese" there are tons of pretty accessible templates available online if you research, just make sure it's one that suits your needs and you understand what's in it (it can be written in normal language without legalese, as long as it's clear), and make a fucking contract.

I've heard horror stories about this shit destroying projects, friendships, livelihoods, and in most cases the fallout could have been avoided (or at least mitigated) by having a clear legally binding document about everyone's responsibilities and compensation from the get-go. Do not assign someone work without a contract or some form of written agreement; do not work without a contract or some form of written agreement. please for the love of god.

“My only flirtation with an attractive woman didn’t end in bed either – although I did find Greta Garbo very attractive. I first met Garbo at Brian Aherne’s house in Santa Monica when George (Sanders) and I went to a party there. The other guests, Sylvia Ashley Gable, David and Hjordis Niven, and Clifton Webb, had already arrived when Garbo breezed into the room. She was alone and I almost fainted. George, being George, made things worse by informing Greta, “My wife has a wild crush on you.” I blushed scarlet. Dispassionately, Garbo responded, “She’s a very beautiful girl, your wife.” At the end of the evening, George escorted Garbo to her car. When he came back into the house, he (rather maliciously) whispered to me, “Zsa Zsa – you don’t have to be so in love with her anymore. I kissed her and she smelled of cheap soap.” The next time I met Garbo I was alone at a party at Brian’s house on 62nd Street in New York. At the time, Rex Harrison was appearing on Broadway in My Fair Lady and was guest of honor. Garbo spent most of the evening standing behind the bar flirting with me. Rex was all over Garbo and Garbo was all over me. I nearly melted. Then Rex had to leave and Garbo said, “Let’s bring Rex’s coat.” The coat was beige and the pockets were so full of vitamins that we could hardly carry it. We took it to him, Rex left, and Greta asked me if she could drive me home. I said yes, but I was afraid of her. We got to my hotel (I was living in the Savoy Plaza) and for a moment I felt like inviting Greta in. Then she said, “Darling, would you like to come to my apartment?” I was paralyzed. Then she kissed me straight on the mouth. And I couldn’t help kissing her back because she was so overwhelmingly strong and so beautiful. I’ve never had lesbian tendencies – but if I had ever had them, the woman of my life would definitely have been Greta Garbo.“  - Zsa Zsa Gabor, One Lifetime Is Not Enough
