The Saint: The Reluctant Revolution (5.4, ITC, 1966)

"You seem to know a lot about what's happening in our small country?"

"Well, I know from what I've seen so far that the sooner you get rid of this present lot, the better."

"Good! Then, uh, then you will... you will help us?"

"I was just waiting for the invitation."

I wonder what it is about the sport of hockey specifically that inspires this many poems. I've not seen any other fanbase like this one.

200 of those hockey poems are admittedly on me. but with that said, i dont know if hockey is any more romantic than any other sport. ive for sure been weird about other rpf pairings before hockey (read: brocedes) & ive seen wonderful cycling, motogp & baseball edits. i think it might just be that there's something so very real and beautiful about live sports.

(cue the mark halliday poem. you know the one)

do you see?? do you get it??? football!! romance!!!! high stakes!!! athleticism!! the simple act of catching a ball somehow being the most important thing in the world!! the precision of it!! P O E T R Y

i think everybody should be a romantic when it comes to sports.

 A. Bartlett Giamatti

Hanif Abdurraquib

and as for poetry:

"The qualities I appreciate most in my favorite soccer players happen to be the same ones I appreciate in my favorite poets: beauty, creativity, flair, imagination, skill—all words, incidentally, that I’d attach to Pelé and Romário."

Duy Doan

Anselm Berrigan

and okay. a few more sports poems while im at it:

Ray Fleming

Jill McDonough

Hanif Abdurraqib

Peter Balakian

Naomi Shihab Nye

Oliver Evans

also Catch by Samiya Bashir which always reminds me of this poem by Trygve Skaug (@lemondropbois edit)

also these lines from "The crowd at the ball game" by William Carlos Williams:

So in detail they, the crowd, / are beautiful // for this / to be warned against // saluted and defied— / It is alive, venomous // it smiles grimly / its words cut—

Kevin Young's Brown is full of baseball poems and therefore incredible

i wont end on my own words. Abdurraqib makes this point more eloquently than i ever could:

it's really not just hockey..

Hot Vintage Stage Actress Round 2

Lisa Kirk: Emily in Allegro (1947 Broadway); Lois Lane/Bianca in Kiss Me, Kate (1948 Broadway); Doris Walker in Here's Love (1964 Broadway)

Mary Martin: Annie Oakley in Annie Get Your Gun (1947 National Tour US); Nellie Forbush in South Pacific (1949 Broadway); Peter in Peter Pan (1954 Broadway); Maria Von Trapp in The Sound of Music (1959 Broadway)

Propaganda under the cut

Lisa Kirk:

She’s so fucking stunning. She did some dubbing work for movies and her voice is all husky and sultry and I just hhrrrnngh

Mary Martin:

I just know y’all are gay for Peter Pan actresses so you better vote for the og Peter Pan lesbian

And some photos of Martin as the title character in One Touch of Venus:

She didn't think she was hot enough to play Venus, so this happened (from My Heart Belongs, her autobiography):

Richard [Halliday, Martin's husband] dealt with my problem in a most imaginative way. He asked if I had ever been to the Metropolitan Museum. Of course, I hadn’t. So he took me to that huge place, led me to where the statues are, and said, “Look, this is a Venus.” We must have seen fifty varieties: tall ones, short ones, even one who was noticeably broad of beam. All were marked “Venus.” “You see?” Richard asked. “Each sculptor has his own idea of Venus. They aren’t all Venus de Milo.” After this had sunk in, he said, “You can play Venus. You’re going to play her wearing the most beautiful clothes in the world.”

And another song that's very far from the Peter Pan image:

Man in a Suitcase: No Friend of Mine (1.21, ITC, 1968)

"Mr. McGill? Let me introduce myself. I am Gombi Masuto."

"Well, I think you know me and the guy with his gun in my back."

"I owe you an apology, but would you have responded to a polite invitation?"

"Well I can't say, cos I didn't get one."

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

do you like book recs? because there’s a really good book on the end Cretaceous extinction I read called The Last Days of The Dinosaurs by Reilly Black. and also one I really didn’t like called The Ends of the World by Peter Brannen. that one’s fine i guess but it’s kinda outdated and he keeps calling some extinct creatures weird and disgusting which was really offputting because they’re just little guys!

sorry for rambling in your ask box, I’ve just got strong opinions on that last one

Oh I know about Riley's book! I may or may not be friend/acquaintances with Riley (since before she transitioned o-o)(we have taken silly photo booth photos together that are still on my fridge)

there's also Otherlands by Halliday in terms of books about extinct ecosystems!

Latest interesting Mormon history find:

Apostle George Q. Cannon (the balding man with the white beard seated in the center of the picture) and fourteen bishops, all imprisoned for polygamy at the Utah Territorial Penitentiary. The photo is from November 1888. There are quite a few photographs of various combinations of imprisoned polygamists taken at the "Pen".

Abraham Kimball (bishop, Kanosh Ward) (Unlike the rest of the prisoners and like the guards, he is not in prison clothes. He was suffering from tuberculosis and was released early, dying the next year. If he was sick or about to be released that may be why he's dressed differently.)
