August 30, 2023 | "Egypt imposes new restrictions on Canadian travellers"
According to the article (and reiterated on Canada's travel advisory website), "As of Oct. 1, Canadians travelling to Egypt will have to visit Egypt's embassy or a consulate in Canada to apply for a visa before they leave the country." Previously, Canadians could obtain a visa online or upon arrival at the airport.

I am once again thinking about the reluctant ruler whose arc justly and correctly includes assuming the throne and taking responsibility for the people set before them
#it's about simba coming back to pride rock it's about aragorn using andúril to fight for middle earth and assuming the throne it's about#hiccup marrying astrid and assuming his role as chief and moses returning to egypt#and it's about irina loving her people so fully that when she claims all of her subjects as hers that chernobog must release them to her!!!#and it's about miryem choosing to stay with the staryk and repair the damage and assume responsibility for the land and people!!!!!#and! it's! about! gen!!!!#it's ALWAYS about gen!!!!#gen who didn't want to be king. who hated being king and only wanted to marry a queen but who obeyed his gods and became a king over kings#who lost his home and half his family and his HAND but who ushered in a new golden age.#and it's about sophos who ran away but who shot the ambassador and took back his kingdom#it's about duty and it's about sacrifice and it's always ALWAYS about doing the right thing even at great personal cost because it's about#submitting to a power higher than your own. of recognizing that the calling on life is one for serving others and having so much more to#answer for than just yourself. it's knowing duty is love is duty#i cant stand stories where the answer is 'give up the throne and reject your duty' because no!!! you dont get it!!!#thats how you get the monsters!!! thats how you get the prince turned into a beast and thats how you get every terrible weak king that#aragorn feared becoming#to accept your throne is to die to self!!! you are no longer you but 'king' or 'queen'#it's like queen mary says to qeii in the crown 'elizabeth mountbatten must die#elizabeth regina must take her place.'#that's terrifying! but it's also everything!!!!#die! to! self! die! to! self!!!!!!#lilac rambles#lilac goes to the movies#lion king#prince of egypt#lotr#spinning silver#the crown#tqt#the queen's thief#httyd

Do you remember what the first piece of mythology was that you read?
What is your favorite myth?
Tumblr media
and today it is probably "Coyote and the Mouse Girls", a Koryak story I read in Barry Lopez's wonderful "Giving Birth to Thunder, Sleeping with his Daughter, even if the Coyote in it isn't really Coyote but Kutkh, the Koryak Raven-Spirit who sometimes created the world, and who has a lot of back-history with the mice, at least according to the Wikipedia entry.
Tomorrow it will be something else.

September 17, 2022 | Bata Shoe Museum
The Bata Show Museum is a museum of footwear and calceology (the study of footwear) in Toronto, Canada. 
At the lowest level of the museum is its permanent exhibition, All About Shoes, which takes you through over 4,500 years of history. It begins with Ötzi’s shoes. Ötzi is the naturally mummified remains of a man who lived some time between 3350 and 3150 B.C., and the shoes he wore were made of bearskin and stuffed with hay. The museum had a recreation of these shoes.
Next in this exhibition is about the Ancient Egyptians and their shoes. A label reads:
Egypt’s hot climate meant that sandals were the most common type of footwear. Typically, they were made from leather, straw, or plant leaves, but privileged individuals wore sandals constructed out of precious metals. 
The second photograph is of a cartonnage (Ancient Egyptian, 300 B.C.E. to 1 C.E.). Cartonnage is a type of material used in ancient Egyptian funeral preparation, and it is made of layers of linen or papyrus covered with plaster. In this specific piece, “the underside depicts conquered enemies painted on the soles of the sandals.”
The numbered footwear are described as such:
Cartonnage made of linen and gesso and depicting sandaled feet for the mummy (Ancient Egyptian, 1–200 C.E.)
Pair of sandals missing its original thong (Ancient Egyptian, 1500–1200 B.C.E.)
Coptic mules from Upper Egypt made from red leather and embossed with geometric designs (Coptic, 300–500 C.E.)

And when the morning sun
Reveals her hills and plains
Then I see a land

Solider boy is the type to say he's not gay even when your cock is deep inside him
You could have your hand up his ass and he'd say it ain't gay 💀

Peter: He is just flirty like that!
MJ: uhuh
Peter: Come on, Ned you know it right?
Ned: Bro, he flirts with you in a real way
Peter: Ugh he would flirt with a door! It is no different than anyone else.
MJ and Ned know damn well that he tries to get Peter's attention in any way he can: Sure
