I’ve been reading @thequibblah‘s absolutely fantastic jily fanfic Come Together the last couple of weeks, and I had to draw her four Gryffindor girls, Dorcas Walker (who will become Meadows I’m pretty sure), Lily Evans, Germaine King and Mary MacDonald - I’m in love with her story and her varied characters!

This is why I fucks with my LGBT family so hard. We need to protect each other. This can’t keep continuing.

It sickens me to think that we live in a world where someone walked into a school with a loaded gun and killed 19 children and 2 teachers. I can’t even imagine the pain and sadness that community is going through. The is no longer a safe place for those kids. If kids have stuff going on at home, going to school used to be a safe place. Yesterday changed that. That shooter not only took the lives of those 21 people but also took the comfort of know your child is ok in school from the whole country. No parent should worry that when they kiss their kid that morning it might be the last time. When will this violence stop? People are living in fear. Fear of the unknown. Fear of shopping at target and having your child be kidnapped, sending them to school and worrying about shootings. Not ok, do better America. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. For the media to make all this about gun laws is not only disrespectful to the families who lost loved ones but also takes away what happened. Politicians have their own agenda and use terrible events of what happened to speak “their truth”. There’s 19 kids that won’t get to grow up, go to college, get married, start their own family. There’s 2 families of the teachers whose kids will have to grow up without a mother. Those are the victims in all of this. No one has stopped and asked why did this happen? It’s not the gun, it’s not the lack of mental health help that we have, it’s the shit show that we live in. People are going insane, no one is on the same page and instead of having a conversation and try to see it from a different view people blow up. Political views are ripping families apart. So please let’s take politics out of this. I know that I will be hugging my kids tighter going forward. I woke up this morning and thought of the poor parents waking up to a quiet house this morning because their child is no longer there. We all need to come together and do better.

Come inside. Step into our world. @fromtheambiance
125/365 「come together」
Grabby grasping
Gotcha gasping shared
Air, heavy breathing in time
Sweat beading on brows raised
Gazing down on one kneeling
Aquiver in quiet anticipation
Hands snaking their winding way
Lips clamoring for a climactic taste
Savoring like they have starved
Until this delicious moment
Deep dish best served
Steaming hot
Shaken and stirred and
Slammed on the rocks
Diligent derring-doer
Don’t stop

This is the most important post I have ever made on my whole stupid blog.
Hug count from the beach scene in Come Together:22
I will now list them all for my dear friend @chrisodonline and her serotonin levels!
At the start of the party:
- Roundtree and Deeks
- Fatima and Kensi
- Deeks and Fatima
- Kensi and Roundtree
- Callen and Kensi
- Callen and Kensi AGAIN (sure it’s probably the same hug from different angles, but WHO CARES IT COUNTS)
- Sam and Deeks (remember in season 3 when Sam said he’s not hugging Deeks?????)
- Deeks and Callen (BLUE EYED BROTP)
- Kensi and Sam
- Deeks and Anna
- Kensi and Kilbride
After the proposal:
- Anna and Callen (idc I’m counting it!)
- Kensi and both Anna and Callen at the same time (she was so excited for them!!!)
- Callen and Sam
- Anna and Kilbride (that old softy does like hugs I KNEW IT)
- Anna and Sam
- Anna and Arkady
- Rosa and Callen (this was nice. I’m imagining them hitting it off during the party. Callen deserves to be an uncle dammit… oops I got sidetracked!)
- Callen and Arkady (second one of the episode!!!)
- Callen and Fatima
- Callen and Rosa again I think (the shot was zooming out and I couldn’t tell for sure)
- Sam and Anna again I think (still zooming out but I’m counting it!)
There you go! This ending really was perfect. I’m sure I’ll be rewatching it over and over and over :))))))))
Am I watching the end on loop to try and catch all the hugs? Yes. Yes. And I caught that they showed the Callen/Kensi hug TWICE from different angles.
I also caught, and I had to rewatch it to be sure I heard it right, Callen says, “C’mon, Mama!” when he goes to hug Kensi. (In a very sweet way.) And then, when he goes to hug Deeks, he says, “C’mon brother!” The problem with COD and ECO being voice twins is that I thought it was Deeks for a moment until I realized Callen was talking.
Callen not only gave Deeks a hug, he called him “Brother.”
MY HEART.
Wait, so the guy in the finale, Sang, he was also in Bonafides with “Switch,” which is very interesting considering they all got arrested? Or maybe he let them go, can’t remember.
Rest in Peace Joe Cocker..

Episode 1 “Come Together”
KraterfromMycenae,Greece, known as the Warrior Vase.
Late Helladic period (late Bronze Age), 1200-1100 BC.
The painted terracotta vase was found by Heinrich Schliemann on the acropolis of Mycenae. During the 1870s Schliemann excavated the ancient Shaft Graves, a royal cemetery, where he discovered spectacular grave goods.
The large vase depicts a group of heavily armed warriors (helmet, cuirass, greaves, shield and spear) as they depart for war, a sack of supplies hanging from their spears. A woman, standing to one side, bids them farewell. It is one of the best known examples of Mycenaean Pictorial style
Ancient greeks used kraters to mix wine and water.

Episode 1 “Come Together”
TheEuphrates is the longest river in southwest Asia and one of the most historically important rivers in the world. The Euphrates rises in Turkey and flows southeast across Syria and through Iraq. Along with the river Tigris, it provided much of the water that supported the development of ancient Mesopotamianculture.
The Tigris Euphrates valley was the birthplace of the ancient civilisations of Assyria, Babylonia,Sumer and the Akkadian Empire. The ancient Greeks called that region Mesopotamia “the land between two rivers” (Tigris/Euphrates). People had occupied that marginal land for 1.000 years before the first cities appeared. They arrived as pastoralists with their herds; they stayed on as farmers close to the river banks in scattered communities of 1.000 or 2.000 people at most. Around 3.100 BC Southern Mesopotamia experienced a growth in the number and size of settlements, suggesting strong population growth. People left the security of their family compounds and tribal villages and they came together with other strangers to create something far more complex: a city, a society, a civilisation. Many of these city-states were located along canals of the Euphrates and the Tigris. A similar development, although on a smaller scale than in Lower Mesopotamia, took place in Upper Mesopotamia in the second part of the 3rd millennium BC.
All the ancient civilisations of the world have flourished near the river beds The Tigris Euphrates river system is one of the four river civilisations where writing was invented, along with the Nile valleyinEgypt (Nile River), the Indus Valley civilisation in the Indian subcontinent (Indus River), and the Yellow RiverinChina.

Episode 1 “Come Together”
Mari (modern Tell Hariri, in Syria) was an ancient Mesopotamian city on the western bank of the Euphrates river and one of the hegemonic states of the area during the 3rd and early 2nd millennia BC. The city flourished as a trade center; it was strategically important as a relay point between the Sumerian cities of lower Mesopotamia,Babylon, the Levant,EgyptandPersia.
Archaeologists have discovered a wealth of prestigious palaces and temples, art schools and an exceptional quantity of administrative archives dating back to the last periods of the city. More than 25.000 clay tablets in Akkadian language written in cuneiform were discovered (The Mari Tablets).
TheRoyal Palace of Mari was the royal residence of the rulers of the ancient kingdom. King Zimri-lim (reigned from about 1779-5 to 1761 BC) expanded the palace which was possibly the largest at the time. It contained more tan 200 rooms, several statues and exquisite artefacts. The throne room was designed like a temple, its walls covered with brilliantly coloured frescoes. The palace even had its own ice-house so that the king’s honey-sweetened wine could be served cold.
Mari was destroyed by Hammurabi, king of Babylon(this is known from the numerous state archives tablets that recount Hammurabi turning on his old ally king Zimri-lim). After this destruction the city was inhabited sporadically but it never regained its former status.

Episode 1 “Come Together”
Thegold helmet of Meskalamdug (c. 2400 BC)
The helmet was found in the Royal Tombs of Ur, in PG 755 by the British archaeologist Leonard Woolley. It belongs to the early dynastic period, the first Dinasty of Ur.
King Meskalamdug was not mentioned on the Sumerian king but his son, Mesannepada was the first king listed. Many of the artifacts found in tomb PG 755 bear the name of Meskalamdug but the cylinder seal of Meskalamdug was found in a larger tomb (PG 1054). Woolley believed that the smaller tomb was not the tomb of king Meskalamdug, but it perhaps belonged to his grandson, an elite, but not necessarily a king. The distinctive helmet was the kind of helmet usually worn by lords and kings and it had a ceremonial purpose.
The helmet was made from a single piece of gold and fashioned to look like hair. In the back of the helmet there is a small hollow bump, used to hold the hair of its owner (in a bun) and it has holes in the ears.
The helmet on the picture (British Museum) is an electrotype copy of the original helmet -which was in Baghdad, in the National Museum of Iraq.

Episode 1 “Come Together”
One of the earliest images of the development of agriculture.
Fragment of a vessel from the Temple of ShamashatMari, Syria. The staetite relief depicts a man tending to a plant. (Early dynastic period I, c. 2900 BC).
Agriculture, growing crops rather than raising livestock, pre-dates the first cities by thousands of years. But at some point agricultural activity in Mesopotamia became more intensive and on a larger scale than had ever been seen before. The geography of southern Mesopotamia is such that agriculture is possible only with irrigation and good drainage, a fact which had a profound effect on the evolution of early civilisation. The need for irrigation led the Sumerians, and later the Akkadians, to build their cities along the TigrisandEuphrates and the branches of these rivers. The farmers built dams and dug canals to bring the water to the crops, on which all their lives now depended. The social consequences of this cooperation were profound; those farmers were planting the seed from which the tree of civilisation would grow.
The city of Mari, situated on the right bank of the Euphrates river, flourished in the 3rd millennium BC. Excavations discoved an enormous palace, with nearly 300 rooms and two floors and also an archive over 20.000 tablets in Akkadian language written in cuneiform. The temple of Shamash was dedicated to the Sun god, who was regarded among Mari’s most important deities.

I’ve seen Green Day a handful of times now. I don’t know how many; I don’t keep track. But I do know that music brings people together and anytime Matt and I are brought together for Green Day, it’s a good time. I failed to secure GA tickets when the presale came out months ago and we debated what or how to get seats for the past several months.
Well, it came down to game time this year. Or, I guess you could say, it came down to Fuck Time. We bought seats in the nose bleeds on StubHub four hours before and we thought, well, it’s Green Day and our seats for PNC in Holmdel, NJ in 2010 sucked, too, but it’ll still be awesome to be in the room. When we arrived at our seats, which were basically on the right side of the stage against the wall, Matt and his girlfriend sat down and I went to ‘use the bathroom,’ aka scope out new seat as I’ve never been one to accept the shitty seats I’ve been dealt, even if they were the ones I bought. Nobody puts baby in the nosebleeds.
I found an area, still on the second level, but lower than where we were, directly across from the stage, that was inhabited by a railing, three or four high top tables and a few folding chairs, with a few people milling about. I scoped out the area, leaning against the railing, seeing if anyone would tell me move, and after 3 minutes, I rallied to the troops to relocate. The view was much better and we were all more than happy to sit (or lean) for the duration of the concert. Photos and more thoughts after the jump.
Against Me opened and they were great, but we didn’t really pay attention to them. The setlist was the standard setlist that they’ve been playing on this arm of the tour and it included King For a Day, which although it’s a song all of us would like them to stop playing for the rest of time, I couldn’t help but sing along. Matt and I performed as much of the American Idiot choreography as we could. Some dude rocked out during Longview and BJA asked him after, ”are you trying to take my damn job?” BJA asked after, and I’m pretty sure the fan Billie Joe pulled up onstage to sing Know Your Enemy didn’t actually know the lyrics.
I have a newly found respect for a couple of the songs from Revolution Radio that they played, mostly YoungbloodandForever Now.
Billie Joe, a master in the art of subtlety let out an exasperated, “Fuck you, Donald Trump!” at the end ofLetterbomb.
St. Jimmy was out of this world energized. Always a favorite of mine to see performed.
We watched on in horror, and also laughing, at the two kids who were sitting in folding chairs covering their ears and sulking while they’re parents (probably mid-to-late 30 something’s) danced and embarrassed the hell out of them.
The GA area was outrageously small and had no energy in it whatsoever. The three of us plus another couple who were probably of a similar age had more energy than all of the kids on the ground. I’ll just say this: There were far too many seats on the floor and the first rule of Green Day is: you don’t sit at Green Day.
The energy was high for the first encore which included American Idiot followed by the sensible 7-minute Jesus of Suburbia.
Lastly, I’m glad they’ve gone back to ending with Good Riddance. It’s just not the same when they don’t.
i have a thousand other thoughts but they’d make no sense and this “review” is pretty consciousness as it is. Green Day concerts, regardless of where you’re sitting, are always a good time and should always be attended when possible. They bring people together and get people off their news feeds, even if only for two-and-a-half hours. The backdrops, pyro, and lighting were fucking awesome, too. Snaps for whoever designed the tour. Last, but not least, here are a few photos:
So much pyro onstage!
