Concept: cursed blade rehabilitation center. Destroying a sentient weapon is expensive and highly unethical, so adventurers bring them to the center where highly trained staff can care for them and eventually find them forever homes. It turns out most cursed weapons are products of trauma and are not strictly evil themselves. Some blades turn out to be fiercely protective companions. Others don't even want to be weapons at all, finding joy in simple work like blacksmithing or farming. Most blades just need to be loved.

A pack of bandits descend upon a seemingly undefended town. But the blacksmith's hammer, the farmer's scythe, the woodsman's axe, they have not forgotten what they once were, and they *will* defend the town that they have come to love.

This sweet girl has been with us for seven seasons. She was forged in the heart of a volcano and would be ideal for anyone with a preexisting fire affinity (she's a cuddler and is guaranteed to keep you warm in winter). She still loves burning, but it turns out you can only reduce the world to ash once. She would be perfectly suited for forest management that regularly requires controlled burns.

This weary old soul has grown tired of bloodshed and would much rather spend his days as an ominous decoration in a tavern or common room, a perfect fit for an adventurer looking to leave their dungeon crawling days behind. He likes peoplewatching with his single glowing eye, preferably from high, prominent locations with views of entrances and exits.

Dark king Grütmore’s edge of annihilation consumed 10,000 souls in the first era, and as it turns out, statistically a lot of those souls heard stories that never got written down. It works in a library now.

The throngler, however, is just irrevocably fucked up. We put it in a stone in a forest and hoped nobody ever finds it

a practical appraisal of palestinian violence, steve salaita

[taqrir]

[ID: text reading, “The real conflict doesn’t exist between civility and terrorism; it exists between Palestinian fortitude and Western anxiety.” End ID.]

[heifeleh]

“The Palestinians, like all colonized people, have to measure a hunger for dignity against the agony of retribution.  They cannot sit passively while the oppressor inflicts continuous misery and they refuse to accept an ethno-religious narrative in which they exist only to be vanquished.  What, then, is left for them to do?  They must fight.  The fight might be ugly in accordance to the situation imposed by the occupying power.  It might challenge observers’ perception of victimhood.  Sometimes it might even transgress the boundaries of what Western intellectuals consider proper civil etiquette. 

“The violence isn’t purely psychological.  It has material purposes, as well.  The idea is that the settlers can never be comfortable, for it is in comfort that the settlers feel as if they have accomplished their objectives.  The land is theirs.  The natives did indeed forget.  History has finally ended. 

…

“Palestinians are inviting Israelis to abandon the romantic idea of their colony.  It is not your exclusive utopia.  It will never be a place of respite.  You cannot be secure and prosperous at our expense.”

Y’all this man was driven from one academic institution to another for loudly, vocally talking, sharing, and theorizing about the occupation of Palestine. He was ‘unhired’ by the University of Illinois for tweeting about the injustice of Israel bombing Palestine way back in 2010. The pro-Israel student and donors got him unhired. The Indian studies department director, Jodi Byrd, who had hired him and very publicly opposed his ‘unhiring’ ended up leaving the department because they couldn’t get the university to do the right thing and give Steve the position. They eventually left University of Illinois as well.

Steve has now been driven away from institutional academia completely and is a school bus driver. He remains dedicated to decolonization and is an excellent theorist. His book is coming out in March and I can’t wait to read it! (Attached Amazon link for ease, but like, find it in your local bookstores friends)

A lion and unicorn playing chess from James McNeill Whistler's The portfolio : an artistic periodical (1880). From the text: "[...] in the scene on a papyrus in the British Museum of the lion and unicorn playing at chess, though [the lion] is obviously an emblem of royalty, the caricaturist has not aimed at representing majesty. This, however, is of the Roman period, and has probably but little of the Egyptian character."

Cool! I went to read the excerpt in the full text for more - I'm somehow always surprised by the lack of annotations in 19th century history books. It's both very funny and very frustrating as a history student.
