#which is TUA in a nutshell

[redrobin-detective]

Everyone keeps saying Five referred to his siblings by name when he came back so that still leaves us with 2 options.

Grace attempted to give him a real boy name and Five was in his smarmy, annoying, going through puberty the first time around phase and said Nah, being just a number is cool. If he hadn't just gone with that he'd have probably picked something lame like The Myst.

The names came after Five left. We know Five found and read Viktor's autobiography during the apocalypse so imagine a baby Five dealing with the general shitshow that his life had become WHILE trying to figure who Viktor is calling out now via context clues and was doing his best not to get them all mixed up when he met them again in 2019.

Rewatching the Umbrella Academy has me thinking once more about Five being just Five. All the others have normal civilian names, chosen by Grace supposedly, except for him. That leaves two slightly hilarious options.

Five was asked about a name prior to hopping forward in time and was like 'nah I like being a number' and blinked away or the more plausible option that

The names were chosen after Five left

Which leads me to this idea that each of the Umbrellas had given thought over the years to a name for their lost, wayward brother.

Luthor: Guy. Am I the only one seeing Luthor crying because Five had been the Boy within their team and then never got to grow up but if he did he'd be a Guy. It feels like him to equate Five's alias to his name.

Diego: Diego would come up with nerdy, annoying names for a nerdy, annoying brother. He'd think to himself that Albert would fit him and Diego would call him Albrat when he was being a prick. If he were still around that is.

Allison: Allison would be flipping through the baby book when pregnant with Claire looking for names with meanings like Lost or Traveler or Beloved Son coming up with names like Wendell or Calian.

Klaus: Klaus would absolutely refuse to mentally settle on a name. He's gone through a million of them from Mario to Klaus Jr to Off Brand Peanut Butter Cup to Jeff. It's easier to play around with different names than to think about how Five isn't around to choose.

Ben: He seems like the kind of dude who never really formed any other names for Five. Like Five is Five? He listened to Klaus's ideas from silly to serious and Ben was never able to take them seriously.

Viktor: He'd given it some thought during childhood but never really thought about it seriously until Five returned. Though unmentioned, some of the ideas that Viktor had tosses around - before and after Five's return - were some suggestions Five would have approved of.

There is one thing that I want to see in Season 3 of TUA:

I want to see the Hargreeves just deciding amongst themselves that Five needs help.

No "Are you okay?"

No waiting for Five to admit that he's not fine at all, that he hasn't been fine for a long, long time.

Because Five lived 13 years on an abusive, manipulative household which the rest of his family had yet to recover from.

And then lived 45 years, alone on the apocalypse with only himself to talk to, surviving on scraps and insects. And then killed the innocent and the damned. He did this all just so he could save the world (and his family).

And he got out, only to fail spectacularly, becoming another instrument in the destruction of the very thing he wanted to stop. 45 years of effort gone to waste in just 8 days.

Then he sends his family to another apocalypse, he basically killed them only in a different timeline. He faced extreme guilt for trapping his family (something he had suffered himself which makes the guilt even worse) and his family just hammered in that guilt even more by confirming that they DO blame him for it. And then they died again, but he lived and everything's fine and dandy. All in the span of 14 days.

There, I summarized his whole life. It was just suffering in a nutshell. Do you see where I'm coming from?

The dude have no concept of fine! He does not know OKAY even if it bit him in the ass and slapped him in the face. Sure you could argue that he could have read books on what constitutes as FINE in a normal world but in practice, in practice he knows that as long as he's alive he can fix things and therefore everything's fine because it was still FIXABLE.

(And I want to rant about how much his powers affect his mentality but I doubt I could write it as eloquently.)

Please don't wait for a breakdown before you start caring. Please don't wait for Five to admit that he needs help because he doesn't know that he needs help. The old man didn't even care for happy, you'd think he'd go and put an effort to be mentally healthy? You think he'd actually divert his attention from saving you to save himself?

It won't happen.

A cry for help won't come.

Just, just go and hug your brother. Please.

TUA Percy Jackson AU

Just me having the need to combine Fandoms. These are just my very chaotic thoughts in no order. Also I might write a fic to this one day...

Note: Even though I don’t mention it for everyone specifically just where it seems to fit because this post will be really long already they all have ADHD and dyslexia because that comes with being a demigod in the Percy Jackson universe.

Luther and Five were the first of the seven to come to Camp Half Blood Hill. They are children of Hephaestus and a male engineer.

Luther spend his earlier childhood trying to impress his human father by working hard in school and trying to get as good as him but the human Dad never quiet came over suddenly having to take care of two children that suddenly showed up in front of his door with a note from the dude he had dated for a while saying that those were their biological children.  

At eight years old Five decided to run away and Luther couldn’t let him go alone. 

Luther has their godly father’s craftsmanship talents which he mostly uses to build his model spaceships and sometimes trying to make more functional ones he also gets pretty good at sculpturing.

Five is good at building things too of course but he’s also one of the children of Hephaestus who have pyrokinesis-powers (I know that is super rare but ssshhhhh) 

While they were running away from monsters Five lost control of his fire and he accidentally burned Luther who will always have scars from this and also restricted movement in his left hand (he is still good with building but it takes him a lot longer and he sometimes needs to ask Five for help)

While he was recovering he dreamed about Hephaestus and his father showed him his deformities and tried to make it easier for his son (I know gods generally don’t care but he can relate and also Luther is a tiny eight-year-old still at that point.)

Five obviously feels immense guilt over this. He was just scared and of the monsters and wanted to burn them like he did with some of the others but instead he got his twin! 

He helps Luther as good as he can though. In the beginning when Luther still had a hard time he’d cut his food for him. 

And nobody, not a soul, not anyone in the whole camp would ever dare to make fun of Luther. Not when his twin is standing behind him with eyes surprisingly icy for someone with fire powers. 

They will try twice to go back home to their father.

Once when they are ten and want to maybe see if it was so bad after all. 

And once when they are starting highschool and want to give normal life a shot. 

The first time engineer human daddy made constant remarks about Luther’s scars. Both of how bad they looked and how it made him a little more clumsy because of how badly his left hand was burned. 

He also like implied that he thought Five did it intentional. That was one of the few times Luther had to comfort Five while he was crying. Though he was crying too.

That stay didn’t last more than two days and they were on a bus back to camp. 

The second time their human father was nicer. He had a new boyfriend and a dog and seemed genuinely apologetic. Though after how he had behaved neither of the twins accepted those apologies. 

He didn’t know how to talk to them still.

There was too much between the three of them and it seemed awkward. 

 In the end it was a drakon attacking all of them that made the twins decide that this wasn’t their place. 

Their father told them that he’d keep their rooms always ready for them to stay when he saw them off. 

There weren’t any ‘I love you’s but that dog? The dog of the new boyfriend? She was a female dog and she had puppies in the time they were there. One of those dogs really loved Five. 

And Five loved him.

And that’s the story how the Hephaestus-cabin got a tiny mascot named Mr Pennycrumb.

Klaus comes to the camp a year after the twins. He’s thirteen. 

His godly parent is Hermes. 

His mother had a big green VW trailer when he was little. One with which they traveled through the whole country staying wherever they seemed fit. 

They lived in the back cuddled together on the bed. Klaus will still say that was the best time of his life. 

It was also his mothers way of trying to protect him from monster. She hoped if they kept going they wouldn’t be to easy to find.

But then she got attacked and killed by a monster anyway and Klaus was handed through the foster system where he was also declared as crazy for how he described his mother’s death.

He went to countless therapists over the years. 

Until he got found by a Satyr who brought him to camp. 

He quickly joined in with the pranks some of his half-siblings did. 

Also he became one of the children of Hermes who smuggle in all the good forbidden stuff the campers need and desire. 

He’s quiet great at stealing as well. 

Somehow he always gets Luther to build things for his pranks without Luther knowing what they are for. 

“What do you need a pieform with a lever system that is remote controlled for?” “Oh, you know, I just wanted to give that harpy on the tree some pie and I can’t throw that high.” “Aw. That’s so nice of you!” 

The pie ends up in the face of a surprised Ares-child. 

Klaus is cackling in safe distance. 

Since he has no other place to go he stays in the camp year round.

Third to join was Allison, only a few months after Klaus at age 15

She’s the daughter of Aphrodite and an artist. 

Her father was bewitched by Aphrodite’s beauty and he has a portrait of her.

When she was little Allison spend hours in front of that portrait just staring at her mother. 

Her father never once told her about her no matter how many questions she asked only one time when he told her he didn’t like to paint humans and she asked: “What about Mom then?” He answered: “Your mother is entirely different, Allie.” 

Allison got handed from school to school. The schools claiming she was manipulative and somehow always got what she wanted and them only realizing what had happened after it was done.

Her father didn’t put her into therapy though. He just ask her to try her best to stop. 

Allison didn’t really understand how she was doing it though. People just did what she wanted them to.

It’s charmspeak obviously.

When she was attacked by a Cyclops in school though her father thought it was time to get her to camp so she can learn to cope with her demi-godliness

But she mostly only goes in summer and spends her schoolyear with her Dad.

When Diego joins the camp at 14 a week and a bit after Allison he’s this angry boy always starting fights with anyone around him. So naturally everyone assumes he’s just a child of Ares.

But then he gets claimed and to the surprise of everyone... he is...

The son of Apollo.

Everyone’s like “That angry dude is supposed to go in a cabin full of sunshine people??”

And Diego is a little surprised too.

But he is very good at archery as it turns out.

And dancing! Apollo might be the god of music but you gotta know your way around rhythms if you want to be good at dancing!

His human parent actually is a ballet-dancer.

After she found out she was pregnant with Diego she moved in with her good friend Grace. The two of them fell in love before Diego was born.

Yep, Diego is raised by lesbians. Because I say so.

Grace is this friendly soft Mom we know but she’s also the one to teach Diego various martial arts.

 Diego’s biological Mom is this no-funny business stern mother who on the other hand very much loves her son.

She just wants him to succeed in life and with her profession she just learned that you have to be tough to succeed.

Diego ended up in the camp because both of his moms got fed up with getting attacked by various greek monsters all the time.

Well fed up is kind of the wrong word but they wanted to make sure that Diego would be able to defend himself if he was ever in danger and Grace’s teaching don’t help him anymore.

So at the start of the summer they drive him down to camp.

He likes his siblings there.

Though he is concert of one Dave Katz who spends far too much time with that one Hermes kid that can never sit still and he’s not sure if he’s good for him.

Ben comes to camp half a year after Diego with a Satyr. He’s twelve and just radiates sadness seemingly.

 Since he’s staying in the Hermes-cabin for a few days before he gets claimed Klaus tries to cheer him up a little with various dumb jokes. 

He doesn’t laugh once. He does however ask for some books.

It turns out that he with help of his father worked through his severe dyslexia just to read the stories his father read to him himself

His father was a marine biologist and super dork.

Little Ben had this big book about different sea species he used to look through.

He also had one about different mythologies because his Dad was also super interested in that kind of stuff and wants his son to be informed all around.

He basically had books about anything and everything. And his father tried his best to answer any question he had and the questions he couldn’t answer he’d find someone else to answer.

Anyway you probably already know that Ben’s godly parent is Athena.

Surprise!

Once he gets claimed Klaus is like a little sad cause he started to feel really protective of him while he stayed in the Hermes cabin.

But he gets to see him every day anyway so it’s all good.

They still don’t know what’s going on with him though.

The Athena Cabin and Klaus try their best to find out why he’s so sad all the time.

It comes out during the mission he, Klaus and Diego go on.

On one of his research trips Ben’s father was attacked by Cetus. Ben was also on the trip but was able to safe himself though for a while it looked like he was about to drown.

His mother saved him however with a small boat that appeared under him.

As soon as he got to land it transformed into a tiny nutshell. 

Ben has it with him at all times and that’s how he saves Diego and Klaus on that mission telling them that story.

Vanya is who Ben, Klaus and Diego are going on the mission for.

She is this ten-year-old girl in an elite boarding school who for some reasons despite trying her very best always gets in trouble.

The reason is constant monster attacks.

She’s pretty upset about that. She knows her human-father expects the very best from her. And so does she! She has to be the very best!

Her father is a conductor in a high-level orchestrate and he expects his daughter to be a lot better than ordinary.

The boys bring her to camp where she shows off her violin talent.

Diego kinda hopes that she’s an Apollo kid so he can keep an eye on her. Though he’s also somewhat scared of her.

She and Five are instant friends! They sit next to each other at the camp fire listening to the dumb stories Klaus tells or the great ones Allison acts out.

She gets claimed during capture the flag where she wins the flag (with the others help)

Her godly parent is Nike. 

She’s a little scared when she sees what kind of overachievers her siblings are.

Sporty kids, Kids that are great at art or acting or school.

And she’s just little Vanya with her tiny violin and she couldn’t even make first chair in her school’s orchestra.

Soon she learns however that even though her siblings are highly competitive they are deep down very sweet.

She goes back to her father after the first summer ends but pretty soon comes back.

He told her what a disappointment she was. 

Five and Luther have also returned from their Dad by then and they bond over shitty parents.

Klaus is also still there to lift the mood!

And Ben! He joins in with books he read. 

None of them can wait for Diego and Allison to finally join them at the end of the school year.

Long TUA psych analysis post warning

Here's the thing about Klaus Hargreeves- We all love him, want to help him, are drawn to him in a way that's different from the others. But there's a catch. Robert Sheehan made a point of reminding us that Klaus is an addict, not a hero. His behavior is not only irritating but damaging and constantly changing. I am currently in school to become a licensed counselor and one of the upper level classes I'm in rn deals with codependency. Addicts almost always have some kind of trauma or damaging experience that leads or drives them to use drugs, alcohol, sex, emotional manipulation etc to cope. At first to them it will seem like a necessary thing to survive- they're desperately trying to protect themselves by creating this new behavior/feeling to focus on. (Even if they don't consciously make the connection between the trauma and their behavior.) But there comes a point for every person where they stop doing it for the sake of protecting themselves and choose to continue because they like it, feel enslaved to it, or both. Essentially /it stops being a decision, conscious or otherwise, to block trauma and is entirely about their habit/. They lose themselves to it. And they will do whatever it takes to continue that habit. Codependency is (nutshelling big-time here) when the behaviors and choices of an individual are based entirely around a substance, behavior or idea. They can't function outside of the codependency. If anyone is in a relationship with, close to or living with this individual, they get pulled into an infrastructure within an already established system that keeps healthy relationships from happening because the addict will use them to maintain the unhealthy habit. The Codependent actually forces others to be codependent on them, on their emotions and actions, so when they try to deviate and break free, the whole system threatens to come down, forcing everyone to change. Humans generally struggle with the concept of change, which helps ensure the rotting timbers stay in place, no matter how unsafe it is. If we watch Klaus' behavior from episode 1 all the way through to the last episode, yes, we do see signs of healthy progress, but we also see him adjusting his behaviors to keep his siblings from kicking him out. Little things like being dramatic at inappropriate times, biting sarcasm, morbid comments, emphasis on his constant need for entertainment, lack of emotional connection during sex. All these things cause people to subconsciously dismiss him as a person because they're too busy being irritated with his /behavior/. This in turn leads to them not taking him seriously (as he himself pointed out), which gives him a reason to feel sorry for himself, focus on his history of abuse, and start the codependent cycle all over again. When he can use his situation for pity, he does- he knows which of his siblings is softer and instead of being the irritating jerk with an attitude to force a fight, he becomes the addict with nightmares and shaky hands and bad mornings. Now, all of these things are relevant and TRUE about him. But the difference between a genuine interaction and what we see right up to when he finally starts getting sober for real, is he chooses which personality to present. His family as a whole has learned to treat him as an addict and dismiss him, and (here's the big one) /tolerate his behavior because 'That's just Klaus being Klaus'/. People act as if his childhood experience with Reginald's abuse was worse than the other children's. Wrong again. At some point he chose to make that his burden, which obviously gave him a seemingly valid excuse for his addictions. Luther, for all his naive, childish, pigheaded behavior, has just as much reason to use his past as an excuse. The big difference? He doesn't. He tries to cope, tries to break away from what he was. Yes, he'll pull out the 'I was sent to the moon' card every once in a while, but it seems more like a verbal processing tool. He faces what he's been through and does his best to push through and past it. Granted, trying become like Klaus is a bad idea, but we can account for that by remembering that to Luther, Klaus presents as 'Carefree, happy'. Klaus only truly starts to show signs of who he actually is with help from Ben and his jaunt back in time. He had no room for mind games on the battlefield; he was literally thrown into war with the choice of stepping up to the plate or losing his life. Ben doesn't take the bait; he calls him out, refuses to play games and encourages him to get sober for /someone else's sake/. All that to say, Robert Sheehan is a fanbloodytastic actor because he literally drew the audience into Klaus' codependent behavior and blinded us with the way Klaus uses his trauma to manipulate others. Anyway *gasps* this has been my analysis of Klaus Hargreeves. Thx.

Cukai arak buat bayar gaji menteri?...

Cukai arak buat bayar gaji menteri?....

Cetusan rasa Datuk Abdul Kadir Jasin tentang isu "kilang arak dibenarkan beroperasi". Selain daripada pandangan politiknya yang ketara dan kemahiran lenggang lengok bahasanya, Datuk Jasin juga memaparkan rasa humor penuh lucu dan ceria dalam tulisannya...

Salam Dari Burung Punai...

Parti-parti Cina DAP, parti liberal PKR dan parti Islam liberal Amanah telah pun rasa menjadi kerajaan selama 22 bulan. Mereka sudah tahu dan kenal pahit maung jadi kerajaan. Ternyata jadi kerajaan lebih sukar dan tak semudah jadi kerajaan. Macam bola sepaklah, jadi penonton lebih selesa dan bijak daripada jadi pemain. Setiap hari mereka dikecam dan dikritik. Pantang tersalah mulut sikit mereka dibelasah macam nak rak. Tidak ada perasaan maaf langsung. Para cyberjihad pembangkang sangat aktif dan mereka kerja siang dan malam, mencari dan mencungkil kesilapan kerajaan (PH). Hilang kewarasan. Nah, hari ini giliran parti agama (Pas) pula berhadapan situasi begitu. Sudah lebih 60 tahun Pas menjadi pengkritik yang tidak pernah tidur. Hari ini apabila mereka jadi kerajaan, baru mereka tahu susah dan senang jadi kerajaan. 

Apa dirasai oleh PKR, Amanah dan DAP selama 22 bulan, kini mengalur ke dalam diri mereka. Ada kalanyata terpaksa telan kahak belendir yang diluar dahulu. Ini dan itulah dunia ini, kata orang tua-tua hidup ini macam roda pedati sekali ke atas sekali ke bawah. Makanya sewaktu kita berada di atas jangan lupa orang dibawah, sewaktu merenung bintang dilangit jangan lupa rumput di bumi. Sewaktu mengilas palikat jangan sampai terlalu singkat, bahaya. Kalau orang serang dan hentam kita sabar sahaja. Serangan dan kritikan berfakta kena diterima dengan baik. Jangan pula kerana degil, sombong dan angkuh kita juga akan menerima nasib salam seperti orang yang kita serang dan kritik dahulu, hanya jadi kerajaan 22 bulan sahaja. Kita tidak pasti apa ada di hadapan kita paling hampir syurga atau neraka. - mso

Lepas kena balun 24 jam baru tarik balik kelulusan operasi 

kilang arak masa PKP. Maksudnya betul la ada kelulusan....

Selepas 3 Minggu tempoh PKP berlalu.. Setelah Kantoi Surat semalam..Kata Annuar Musa, kita akan bertindak keras.. Tak payah berlakon lah..atau salahkan Penjawat awam.. nak batalkan apa,tempoh PKP dah tinggal Seminggu jer lagi bermula Esok.. Minggu lepas depa bebas beroperasi..dah cukup dah Stok arak depa untuk sebulan lagi dihasilkan.. 

Sebenarnya tak perlu pun bila dah kantoi surat baru bertindak.. MKN dengan Polis dan tentera sentiasa membuat rondaan..kalau Bengkel Motor yang kecik tu pun Polis boleh jumpa dan buat tindakan, takkan Kilang Arak beroperasi depa tak tahu.. 

Tambah melibatkan Kilang Arak..takkan pula menteri tak maklum.. takkan Jahil SU kementerian Pak haji Hasnol tu nak bagi kelulusan tanpa merujuk menteri..Akhirnya jadi salah dan dikambing hitamkan Kakitangan Kerajaan sepertimana kes sebelum ini..Tak payahlah nak salahkan KSU.. Apa salahnya kita pakat sama2 salahkan DAP.. Itu lebih mudah.. Tak gitu tuan Mufti,macai2 dan walaun2..?  

Yang teruk Penjaja Pasar Malam.. Peniaga Pasar tani, peniaga Food Truck atau Penjaja dijalanan.. Depa terpaksa tutup perniagaan, Hilang pendapatan sepanjang sebulan ini... lagi teruk ada yang didakwa semata mata keluar nak cari rezeki.. - Ipohmali

Masa mula kita dedah kilang arak dibenar beroperasi oleh PN, walaun mati akal nak jawab. Pusing punya pusing, terpaksa laa cakap ia surat PALSU

Bila kita bagi link MK yg Heineken sendiri sahkan, walaun mati akal lagi. Terpaksa cakap MK lidah DAP.

Sekali kerajaan PN main wayang, tarik balik kebenaran kt Heineken, walaun terus telan semua tahi yg diberakkannya sejak semalam. Surat palsu jadi benar, MK lidah DAP jadi pedoman. Haaaa baru ada akai serangan rakyat terhadap PN.

Kenapa walaun tak bersama2 kami yg majoriti ni menggesa penutupan operasi kilang arak? Kenapa pertahankan kebatilan? Kami dulu kalau PH buat tak betul pun kami kritik semacam. Walaun pulak dok jilat tak kira apa asalkan ianya dari PAS. Walaun tau dak tahi Hadi Awang tu sama mcm tahi LGE, LKS, Donald Trump? Sama aje. 

Pak Maun blkg rumah suruh tanya, pembatalan kebenaran operasi kilang arak tu utk tempoh PKP sahaja ker utk selamanya? Sebab dia kata sekrg PAS dh jdi kerajaan, takkan la nak tgk saja kilang arak tu kan?  - f/bk

Bila orang  kampung takut 

Covid-19 memasuki juboq depa....

Orang kampung sibuk tanya tok, bagaimana caranya untuk menentukan agar dubur kita tak dimasuki oleh makhluk bernama COVID-19? Tok kata, pakailah "Mask" pada dubur seperti kita pakai pada mulut. Mereka tanya lagi, "Mask" sukar diperolehi di kedai2, bagaimana mahu halang dubur kita dari dimasuki makhluk COVID-19 ini? Tok kata, pergilah bertemu seorg dukun yang juga ahli parti lebai juga, dia pandai menangkap makhluk COVID-19 ini dan mengurungnya. Mereka bertanya, adakah kita perlu menonggeng depan dukun tersebut untuk dia mencari makhluk COVID-19?. Tok kata, semestinya begitu. Mereka seolah2 bimbang. Mungkin mereka takut diliwat oleh dukun berkenaan. "Tiadakah cara paling mudah untuk kita elakkan dari dubur kita dicerobohi oleh makhluk COVID-19 ini, tok?". Tok tersenyum dan berkata, " Ada....keraplah kamu terkentut kerana makhluk ini tidak suka kepada bau-bauan seperti bangkai". Mereka tersenyum dan kelihatan amat lega.

Sementara itu Guru tok ajak tok pegi timur tengah. Dia dah jadi ejen atau duta kat sana. Macam ejen astro la. "Bertarap menteri ambe, mu tau dak?". Kata guru tok sambil ke hulu ke hilir belajar berjalan sebagai seorang menteri. " Apa tugas duta negara timur tengah ni, wahai tuan guru Almarangi?". Tanya tok. "Oleh kerana di sana takde parti Islang, tugas utama ambe adalah mengislangkan semua masyarakat di timur tengah". Jawab guru tok. - Tok Usin

Sah!surat adu domba dan fitnah tulisan Hadi...

Antara fitnah dan pembohongan yang terkandung di dalam surat tersebut: 1. Beliau mendakwa bahawa DSAI mahu menggulingkan Tun M dengan sokongan Keadilan, Amanah dan DAP serta mendapat bantuan pihak lain seperti Amerika, Eropah, Singapura, Zionis, dan gerakan Freemason. 2. Beliau mendakwa Parti Amanah adalah parti Islam, Liberal dan Sekular yang opportunis dan tergesa-gesa ditubuhkan oleh DSAI dan DAP untuk menyaingi populariti PAS. 3. Beliau mendakwa Pakatan Harapan adalah dikuasai oleh anasir-anasir luar. 4. Beliau mendakwa DAP adakah sebuah parti yang dianggotai oleh kebanyakannya orang beragama Kristian. 5. Beliau mendakwa tidak wujud perjanjian peralihan jawatan PM di dalam Pakatan Harapan seperti yang didakwa oleh DSAI. Ada banyak lagi ... tetapi setakat yang ada ini sudah jelas menunjukkan bahawa manusia ini tidak teragak-agak berbohong, memfitnah, dan memaksakan pandangan diri dan pihaknya sahaja sebagai 'the absolute truth'. - Jamzuri Ardani Btw, PAS vice president Mohd Amar Nik Abdullah confirmed today (April 6) that Hadi was indeed the author of the Arabic letter, stating it was addressed to Muslim leaders across the world. Mohd Amar also stated the letter was written in Hadi’s personal capacity. Story di sini..

Hadi Wrote A Letter To Scam The Muslim World – Here’s Why The Arab Leaders Would Probably Laugh At Him...

The simple fact that Muhyiddin Yassin refused to promote Hadi Awang as either the deputy prime minister or a religious affairs minister shows the deep distrust the prime minister has on the PAS president, whose Islamic extremism and radicalization would do more damage than good to the fragile backdoor Perikatan Nasional government. In reality, there aren’t many ministries that PAS president Hadi is qualified to lead. The Religious Affairs Ministry unexpectedly went to Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri, a non politician but a Federal Territories mufti (religious scholar) who is popularly known for his moderate approaches and positive interfaith attitude. That was indeed a huge slap in the face of Hadi Awang. Disappointed, the PAS supremo went into hiding for almost a month – sulking. To prevent the backdoor government from a sudden collapse during the current Coronavirus pandemic, the prime minister had reluctantly appointed him as Special Envoy to the Middle East to pacify his followers and to allow him to regain some dignity, even though it will be months before he can travel to the region. The position as special envoy itself smells fishy. The scope of his coverage – Middle East – might sound very powerful to the simpleton Hadi, but it could also mean a generic term because the prime minister had no idea where to assign him. It was like giving him a powerful title, but in reality, a general office clerk responsible for unimportant administrative tasks. Muhyiddin has been sending warlords whom he considers as threats to as far as possible. He sent Hishammuddin Hussein to take care of foreign affairs. And he appointed Khairy Jamaluddin as Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, clearly an irrelevant and useless ministry. And now he sends terrorist Hadi Awang to the Middle East to be grilled. Yes, as far as Saudi Arabia and his buddies (United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt) are concerned, Hadi Awang is still regarded as a terrorist by virtue of him as one of the four vice-presidents of Qatar-based International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), an organization which Saudi, the de-facto leader of the Middle East, has banned and categorised as a “terrorist organization”.

Therefore, in order to justify his new position as special envoy to the region, the PAS president had written a letter in Arabic to all Muslim leaders worldwide. So far, the Islamist party has neither denied the existence nor the authentication of the contents of the letter, lending credence that the letter signed by Hadi Awang himself was indeed genuine. The letter was designed to scam Saudi – de-facto leader of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – as well as to legitimize the backdoor government of Muhyiddin. In a nutshell, the letter tried to impress upon the leaders of the Middle East that Muhyiddin’s Perikatan Nasional government is more Islamic than the previous Mahathir’s Pakatan Harapan government. In the letter, Hadi claimed that his Islamist party had met, discussed and chosen to cooperate with then-PM Mahathir Mohamad because the 94-year-old man was a bigger champion of Islam. In the same breath, Hadi rejected PM-in-waiting Anwar Ibrahim due to his questionable personal character as well as his dangerous political pragmatism. How did Hadi conclude that Mahathir was a better defender of Islam than Anwar? Was it due to Mahathir’s harbouring of Indian Muslim hate preacher Zakir Naik? Or was it because Mahathir had generously gifted RM400 million to the PAS-ruled state of Kelantan, which brought cheer to PAS top leaders who then happily rewarded themselves with a fleet of 14 Mercedes Benz and RM50,000 bonus each? During Mahathir’s 22 years iron-fist rule (from 1981 to 2003), and even during his retirement period, he had consistently warned his (former) party UMNO of the grave repercussions of supporting PAS’ agenda to implement hudud punishments in Kelantan. Heck, he had even warned that “Hudud Law” proposed by PAS was unjust and against Islamic principles. Hence, either PAS has been a fake and unjust Islamist party or Mahathir was not such a pro-Islam leader – take your pick. Amusingly, neither Hadi nor Mahathir talked about introducing hudud law nationwide at all during the so-called meetings or discussions from May 2018 to March 2020, when the Pakatan Harapan government eventually collapsed due to Muhyiddin’s coup.

Mr. Hadi’s questioning of Anwar’s personal character is presumably linked to the latter’s sodomy conviction, leading to his jail sentence. But Anwar had officially been pardoned by former Agong (King), Sultan Muhammad V of Kelantan. Is Hadi trying to mock, belittle and insult the intelligence of the Malay Ruler and the Monarch Institution with his hateful letter to the Muslim leaders worldwide? More importantly, the “munafiq” (hypocrite) Hadi conveniently hides the fact in the letter that the Muhyiddin’s backdoor government of which his party is part of has willingly worked with Azmin Ali, the traitor who did not only betray his own PKR party, but was also caught with his pants down engaging in “gay sex” at Four Points Sheraton Hotel in Sandakan, Sabah. The extremist Hadi also wrote that Pakatan Harapan’s stunning victory in the May 2018 General Election had benefited or sided with the non-Muslims, obviously referring to multi-racial but Chinese-dominated DAP party. He falsely claimed that Mahathir had been used as a stepping stone to achieve power, largely due to Mahathir’s old age as well as treachery committed. In truth, before the Pakatan Harapan government collapsed due to treachery committed by Muhyiddin Yassin and Azmin Ali, the coalition consisted of PKR, Amanah, Bersatu and DAP. Only DAP was dominated by Chinese or non-Muslim. How was the Pakatan Harapan different from the now-defunct Pakatan Rakyat, which comprised PKR, DAP and PAS? Yes, the same Hadi Awang was previously part of the opposition Pakatan Rakyat coalition who had tried – and failed – to topple the previous Barisan Nasional government in the 2008 and 2013 General Elections. Had the Pakatan Rakyat succeeded in unseating Barisan Nasional, would not DAP be part of a new government too? Would Hadi still spew racial and religious hatred? According to Hadi’s twisted logic, the Pakatan Harapan (PKR, Amanah, Bersatu and DAP) had diluted the power and influence of Muslims, but the Pakatan Rakyat (PKR, PAS and DAP) would not dilute the power and influence of Muslims. In other words, as long as PAS is part of the government, even if DAP tagged along, the Muslims will be fine and will not lose power.

If indeed it was true that the old and senile Mahathir had been used, then it’s also true that the non-Muslim DAP had committed treachery in sponsoring the KL Summit 2019, the platform which Hadi used to express his strong support and opened his toxic mouth, slamming Saudi for its failure to protect Muslims worldwide in its capacity as leader of OIC. Without fail, the letter composed by Hadi condemned Amanah, the splinter party of PAS, as secular liberals whose support was derived from Western countries for strategies, media and finances. He profusely defended the formation of backdoor government Perikatan Nasional as being democratic and constitutional. Is that true? Sure, Muhyiddin’s government might be constitutional, but it was definitely not formed through the ballot box, hence it’s known as a backdoor government created through a coup and treachery – not democratically. Otherwise, how does Hadi explain that with the exception of Singapore and Indonesia, not a single foreign country has endorsed or recognised the new regime? Embarrassingly, not a single Arab country in the Middle East has sent a congratulatory note to newly crowned Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. Thus, it begs the same question – will Special Envoy Hadi Awang be recognised by the Middle East governments? Does Hadi really think the Middle East gives a damn whether Perikatan Nasional is constitutional and democratic? Saudi and its friends are more concerned about Hadi’s credential as a terrorist who had openly admitted that he would choose Qatar, Turkey and Iran over other Arab powers in the Middle East. Hadi Awang, like Anwar Ibrahim, is a strong supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, a Sunni Islamist organization that gave birth to “Arab Spring”. Threatened, Saudi government then declared Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. To make matters worse, the snatching of power – a coup – demonstrated by Muhyiddin Yassin (Bersatu), Zahid Hamidi (UMNO) and Hadi Awang (PAS) in the infamous “Sheraton move” has not gone down well with the Arab world. The coup is seen as a threat to the Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and other Gulf states that practises authoritarian rule. It was quite funny that Hadi has proudly – but foolishly – aligned himself with Mahathir Mohamad in his half-baked letter. Did he realise that under Mahathir administration, Malaysia had pulled out its troops from Saudi Arabia, which was deployed to the kingdom in 2015 by scandal-plagued PM Najib Razak – illegally – without approval from the Cabinet, let alone Parliament?

Mahathir had also condemned the brutal assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, describing it as an act of “extreme cruelty” and unacceptable. The CIA has concluded that the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had given the order for the killing, where the Saudi Arabian dissident was butchered and his body was dismembered and disposed of. Hadi Awang, whose favourite pastime is playing religious bigotry and racial extremism thought he was smart when he wrote that Muhyiddin government had defeated opposing movement who had help from Western Ambassadors and Freemason and Zionist advisors. He was trying to fan the flames of racial hatred against the Americans and Israeli. Jared Kushner, an observant Jew and a top adviser to his father-in-law, President Donald Trump, is close friends with the Saudi Crown Prince. Trump is throwing its weight behind Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. Egypt and Jordan already host Israeli embassies and maintain open security and political ties. Even Saudi Crown Prince had secretly paid a visit to Israel. In August 2018, the UAE paid the secretive Israeli NSO Group to spy on dissidents. Two months later, Netanyahu visited Oman. The Warsaw Summit saw smiles and handshakes exchanged between foreign ministers of the UAE, Bahrain and other Arab states with Netanyahu. Even Qatar has working arrangements with Israel for years already. Images of the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, smiling and joking with Arab leaders at the international conference on the Middle East were possible because the Arab world and Israel has a common enemy – Iran. Yes, while the relationship between the Gulf states and Israel is increasingly getting closer, the dumb Hadi Awang tried to badmouth the Israel in front of the Arabs. The best part was Hadi Awang, a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and Iranian regime, didn’t realise that the Sunni Arabs in the Middle East hate Iran more than Israel or America. The reason Hadi wrote a lengthy letter to the Muslim world is to trick them into believing that Muhyiddin did not launch a coup or revolution hence the backdoor government deserves recognition from the Middle East. Like it or not, the letter to mislead the Muslim world will not only backfire but would most probably be laughed at. Perhaps Hadi Awang, with his “IQ of a carrot”, is still clueless as to the damage he has inflicted with his letter. The letter begging the Middle East to believe that Muhyiddin government is legitimate is itself an admission that the backdoor government is illegitimate. - FT

Lords, a rubrica #gettoknow de hoje, trás um fotografo a quem tenho o privilégio de chamar de Amigo! O Filipe Macedo de 25 anos, que reside em Braga embora seja de Esposende, já tem a sua assinatura em várias fotos minhas e de outros criadores de conteúdo, assim como outro eventos!

Curiosos? Vamos lá.

Lords, today’s rubric #gettoknow, brings a photographer whom I am privileged to call a Friend! Filipe Macedo, 25, who lives in Braga although he is from Esposende, already has his signature on several photos of me and other content creators, as well as other events! Curious? Come on.

1. De onde surgiu a tua paixão pela arte da Fotografia? | From where it came that passion for Photography? 

Filipe – Ora, sem recuar já ao tempo dos dinossauros… Isto foi um crescendo. Como uma grande parte das coisas boas da vida exige maturação, esta paixão também precisou. Teve varias fazes e hoje é sem duvida uma das coisas que me move e me faz ser pessoa, mais criativo, um entrepreneur de gama baixa (risos).

Filipe – Now, without going back to the time of the dinosaurs … This was a crescendo. As a great part of the good things in life requires maturation, this passion also needed it. He had several tasks and today is undoubtedly one of the things that move me and make me a person, more creative, a low-end entrepreneur (laughs).

2. Como fotografo, quais são para ti as maiores dificuldades e facilidades, dado o local onde vives? | As a photographer, which are for you the biggest difficuties and facilities, have in mind the place where you live! 

Filipe – Vamos começar com as coisas boas, pode ser? Braga tem toda a acessibilidade que podemos pedir, é uma cidade segura, movimentada o bastante para poder sentir aquela agitação, mas não ao ponto da claustrofobia. É uma cidade com uma arquitectura mais clássica no entanto bastante jovem, com várias escolas arquitectónicas para os mais variados gostos, uma cidade repleta de população jovem e de oportunidades.

Num lado não tão bom… Braga é uma casquinha de noz. É a tasquinha do tio Alberto: tem tudo de bom, mas é pequena e nós já corremos o menu da comida e da bebida. Lamento Lorde, vou ter de falar daquela inevitável questão que é o povo Português. Com todas as 1001 qualidades que transportam, são um povo que tem pouco respeito pela arte, que diz sem vergonha nenhuma “o meu primo faz mais barato” e tentando resumir um bocadinho, com uma visão débil do mundo criativo.

Filipe – Let’s start with the good stuff, shall we? Braga has all the accessibility we can ask for, it is a safe city, busy enough to be able to feel that excitement, but not to the point of claustrophobia. It is a city with more classic architecture, yet quite young, with several architectural schools for the most varied tastes, a city full of young population and opportunities.

On a not-so-good side … Braga is a nutshell. It’s Uncle Alberto’s takeaway: it’s all good, but it’s small and we’ve already run the food and drink menu. I’m sorry, Lord, I’m going to have to talk about that inevitable issue that is the Portuguese people. With all the 1001 qualities they carry, they are a people who have little respect for art, who say without shame “my cousin does it cheaper” and trying to summarize a little, with a weak view of the creative world.

3. Já tive o privilegio de trabalhar contigo várias vezes! O streetstyle, é algo que te fascina, ou tens maior preferência por outro tipo de fotografia? | I already had the privilege of working with you several times! Streetstyle, it is something that fascinates you, or you have preferences for other type of content? 

Filipe – É verdade sim senhor, hoje tenho o privilegio de te chamar de Amigo, com A grande, e não é à toa. A fotografia de moda fascina-me numa forma geral, não toda, mas na sua maioria diz-me toda alguma coisa, bem como o processo criativo. Quanto a outras coisas que goste de fotografar, tenho aqui o coraçãozinho dividido entre cerimonias e palco.

Filipe – Yes, it is true, sir, today I have the privilege of calling you Friend, with A grande, and it is not for nothing. Fashion photography fascinates me in a general way, not all, but mostly it tells me everything, as well as the creative process. As for other things I like to photograph, here I have my little heart divided between ceremonies and stage.

4. Como descreverias fotografia? E qual o teu objectivo quando disparas? | How you would describe Photography? What is your Goal when you shoot? 

Filipe – Olha, nas palavras de Destin Sparks, “photography is the story i fail to put into words”. Desculpa, não consigo colaborar com aquela velha historia do “é ver o mundo de outra forma” vejo o mundo da mesma forma que toda a gente vê, tento é com cada disparo, contar uma historia. Como sabes, eu dou workshops e uma das coisas que uso como exemplo é: Se eu quiser mostrar que a minha mãe fez um bolo, como é que eu vou mostrar isso? A típica foto da mãe a segurar no bolo, ou por entre o pote do açúcar e da farinha um relance dela a bater as natas enquanto o bolo cozinha no forno? É escolher a melhor forma de contar o que se passou ali tentando transmitir um sentimento em cada fotografia.

Filipe – Look, in the words of Destin Sparks, “photography is the story I fail to put into words”. Sorry, I can’t collaborate with that old story of “is to see the world in a different way” I see the world in the same way that everyone sees it, I try with each shot, to tell a story. As you know, I give workshops and one of the things I use as an example is: If I want to show that my mom made a cake, how am I going to show it? The typical picture of the mother holding the cake, or between the jar of sugar and flour a glimpse of her whipping the cream while the cake is cooking in the oven? It is choosing the best way to tell what happened there trying to convey a feeling in each photo.

  A seleção natural trata disso

  5. Em termos fotográficos, como classificarias os criadores de conteúdo? Achas que estão num bom caminho? Ou que há muito a melhorar? | In photographic terms, how would you classify content creators? Are they doing a good job? 

Filipe – Em privado, já debatemos este assunto e vou tentar resumir aquelas horinhas que passamos à volta do mesmo tema (risos). Bem, não querendo ser mauzinho temos já de separar quem realmente faz o trabalho, de quem tem “um primo que faz mais barato”. Falando de quem realmente faz o trabalho, acho que estamos numa fase de maturação… simpática. Temos algumas boas cascas que vão cada vez mais melhorando e amadurecendo. Em relação ao pessoal que tem uns primos, a selecção natural trata disso (risos). Não quero parecer arrogante ou pouco humilde, mas acho que algumas pessoas se tentam aproveitar ao máximo de algumas coisas que depois acabam a dar mau nome quer aos criadores de conteúdo quer aos fotógrafos/videógrafos.

Filipe – In private, we have already discussed this subject and I will try to summarize those hours we spent around the same topic (laughs). Well, not wanting to be bad, we have to separate who really does the job, who has “a cousin who does it cheaper”. Speaking of who really does the job, I think we are in a maturation phase … nice. We have some good peels that are improving and maturing more and more. Regarding the people who have cousins, natural selection takes care of that (laughs). I don’t want to appear arrogant or slightly humble, but I think that some people try to make the most of some things that later end up giving a bad name to both content creators and photographers/videographers.

6. Além de trabalhares freelancer, sei que tens o teu próprio negócio. Qual o teu maior objectivo? Onde pretendes chegar? | Along your work as a freelancer, i know you have your own business. What is you biggest Goal? 

Filipe – PontoD’Foco é o nome!! Desculpa, ‘fly the flag’ ao máximo aqui. O objectivo é crescer e tornar-me o melhor possível quer a nível pessoal quer profissional. Continuar a entregar boas historias e causar umas lágrimas de alegria ou de saudade. Sonho para realizar, hoje olho para trabalho que antigamente achava fantástico e digo “é, realmente podia estar melhor” portanto, neste momento, é realizar todos aqueles projectos e estimular a massa cinzenta.

Filipe – PontoD’Foco is the name !! Sorry, ‘fly the flag’ to the maximum here. The goal is to grow and become the best I can be, both personally and professionally. Continue to deliver good stories and cause tears of joy or longing. I dream to accomplish, today I look at work that I once thought was fantastic and I say “yeah, it really could be better” so, at this moment, it is to carry out all those projects and stimulate the gray matter.

7. Qual o segredo para o sucesso? | What is the secret for success? 

Filipe – Boa pergunta (risos). Dedicação! Nada bate o trabalho árduo e tudo o que ele obriga. A historia tem provado isso em todas as áreas e é por esse principio que ainda hoje me vou pautando.

Filipe – Good question (laughs). Dedication! Nothing beats hard work and everything it requires. History has proven this in all areas and it is for this principle that I am still guiding myself today.

8. Qual o teu melhor trabalho até hoje? Porquê? | Which is your best work until today? Why?

Filipe – O meu melhor trabalho? Acreditas que é uma foto que na altura não dei nada por ela? O meu melhor trabalho é, para mim, aquele que tem um maior significado, mais do que uma obra de arte é o que me traz aquele conforto no coração. É uma foto que tirei à minha mãe a cozinhar bacalhau á-braz.

Filipe – My best job? Do you believe it is a photo that I didn’t give anything for at the time? My best work is, for me, the one that has a greater meaning, more than a work of art is what brings that comfort in my heart. It’s a photo I took of my mother cooking codfish.

9. Descreve-me o Filipe em 3 palavras! | Describe yourself in 3 Words!

Filipe – Dedicado, impulsivo e idiota (risos)

Filipe – Dedicated, impulsive, and idiot (laughs).

  Nada bate o trabalho árduo e tudo o que ele obriga
