13th
Daniel 6
Darius, like most ancient, and not so ancient, kings and emperors, had delusions of grandeur.
Eunuchs as a way to prevent infidelity.

Deuteronomy 23:1

Was Daniel a eunuch?
Quite likely
2 Kings 20:14 - 18
How would this affect Daniel?
Isaiah 56:3 - 5

God says; "If you humble yourself and come to me, I will accept you."

The Jews were spreading their faith.

Matthew 7:24 - 27
Daniel built on the rock.

Daniel knew in his heart that God was real. He continued praying openly, despite Darius' decree.

Part 1 here

Part 2 here

The weather clears in two days as Qi Shaoshang had thought it might, and as the morning of the second day arrives he makes ready to leave.

While Di Feijing knew the day had to come, he finds himself feeling a little lost, even rather melancholy about how things will be from now on. The lack of plans of his own, the directionlessness of it all, of a future, seemingly without purpose, feels like an increasingly heavy weight.

Not that he will admit that to anyone. Not that he will even permit them to guess.

Finished reading Gay Berlin yesterday yay!

I'm just gonna say, one does not need to time travel there. Or travel to Berlin point. What happened there in the late 19th century-early 1930s is the same that's happening everywhere today. History is a circle, for better or for worse (mostly worse).

And speaking of circles, I never fully read Conrad Veidt's Wikipedia article because some sources seemed iffy. But good to know that, thanks to unpublished correspondence, some of Connie's belongings (cigarette case and lighter) are at the Margaret Herrick Library, plus the notebooks a fan gave to Lili. Hopefully they won't be burned.

Current Mood: lazy

It was 31°C here yesterday. It's 31°C again today. It's too much! I have a rotten barometric-pressure headache hanging around and next to no appetite for actual food. Argh. Rain predicted Sunday afternoon, I hope it'll break the heatwave a little. I don't tolerate these well at all, I'm fed up of people in the media always insisting on how "gorgeous" it is when the weather is this hot. It is not! (And my friend got sunburned when they spent less than 10 minutes outside, a couple of days ago! SMH)

Fun with idolatry and "I'm doing Avoda Zara" jokes! The perek ended yesterday but RL is being busy.

The absolute requisite note on Avoda Zara is one that gets stressed constantly, which is that this is referring specifically to the religious groups amongst whom the tanaim and amoraim were living, and only them. Among the reasons the commentators have said this for a long time is 1) actual real differences between the avoda zarah described in the mishna/gemara and the goysche practices they lived amongst, combined with 2) because if they kept to all of this, there would be many practical problems, because they were a lot more interconnected by that time and working in specific professions, and 3) the outside world thinks it gets a say in Jewish religious texts and would be violently offended if this refers to them.

But definitely there were times when dealing with Artscroll commentary when I had to snap and actually look up when the Meiri lived, and it's like, ah, 13th century France, I understand completely.

So I hated the first part of episode 10, and liked the last ~8 minutes, those were great, truly great. But I really didn't need what came before that; I liked how Murderbot slipped away at the end of the first novella. Oh well.

In general, overall, I really enjoyed Murderbot The Television Show, although there were parts of it I had to skip or not watch. They did a really good job at translating a novella into a tv show; the changes were understandable and made sense for the medium, even when they were ones I disliked. The show fleshed out the characters very well, and they had just so so so so much fun with the in-universe tv shows.

If this show has one thesis, it is Murderbot = Gurathin, and with my complaints about the first part of episode 10, I did like how it went so, are you not convinced that Murderbot = Gurathin yet? Here, let me show it to you again.

Anyway, I assume five seconds after the end of ep10, ART says hello. (okay that's probably not ART. But it would make sense to begin s2 immediately after s1 ends)

Part 1 here

It takes two more days for Di Feijing to recover sufficiently to be able to stay awake long enough to do much more than eat and drink. Not that he feels well yet or even particularly well rested despite having been barely been awake. The breathlessness is easing however, and despite the initial pain and blood loss, the wound troubles him far less than his neck had when that had first been injured.

For the most part his sleep has been dreamless or at least has nothing he can remember on waking. Twice though he has woken to dreams to vivid to ignore.

The first time he hadn't woken Qi Shaoshang, whose bed is on the opposite side of the room they are sharing. Only fragments of the nightmare remained once he had startled awake, just the vague and fading impression of something with too much blood and death.

( He's seen a lot of both of those. Been the cause of it too. He doubts anyone in the Jianghu has gone through life without experiencing such dreams on occasion either. )

Something a bit different, well it's still H/C and for a Cdrama, but it's not MLC (yes I am still working on that last part of Before the Dawn) This is for Heroes (2022) and is Di Feijing canon divergent thing. I'll post it here are 3 shortish parts over the next couple of days. Then once it's done I’ll put it on ao3.

The Fei character in Di Feijing's name is the same as in Di Feisheng, but the Di character is a different one.

Di Feijing - 狄飞惊

Di Feisheng - 笛飞声

There is no shelter here, but then he has never taken the easy path. A faint, weary smile forms on Di Feijing's icy, bloody stained lips. Unable to go on, he sinks to his knees beneath the bare trees.

He'd never expected to survive his fight with Fang Yingkan. That he has managed to blind him, leaving him defenceless and wounded in this wilderness will have to be revenge enough. The vile young marquis will never harm another. He is content to let him wander in pain and fear before the ice and snow claim him.

He presses a hand against the wound in his side. There is no warm welling up of blood now - the bitter cold has stopped the bleeding. Perhaps if he'd reached safety or if someone was searching for him there might have been a slimmest chance of survival.

There is no one coming this time. It had been a miracle that Lei Sun and his wife had found him on that snowy night all those years ago.

Fate it seems cannot be outrun, not in the end.

Tired, barely feeling the cold around him, Di Feijing closes his eyes, breath slowing, barely misting in the icy air.

( Someone is shaking him, one hand on his shoulder, the other holding his hand. The voice is familiar, although in his disorientated state Di Feijing can't bring whose it is to mind. )

Once upon a time, I watched the first five seasons of Dexter and then stopped for whatever reason. Recently I saw it was on Netflix and thought I should finally finish the series and I might as well start at the beginning so as to maximize the amount of time I could spend not having to think about anything else in the world except for what a selfish asshole Dexter is and how much I love Deb.

Previously on Dexter...
