SILENT IS THE NIGHT.

Silent is the night,

when everyone's asleep,

No one hears my pain,

no one hears me weep.

Everyone's in dreamland,

and no one will ever see,

How lonely is my night,

how I ache to dream with thee.

There were some new additions to the overall lists this week. Utami Hayashishita earned a spot on both the top overall list and the top women's list, and Gorgeous George just barely kicked Charlie Dempsey off the bottom overall list.

We've now had three polls on Jon Moxley, and the ranking is:

Current AEW Mox - 84.8% smash

Dean Ambrose - 84.6%

CZW Mox - 82.3%

Also, people prefer non-mullet Eddie Guerrero (80.5% smash) to Eddie Guerrero with a mullet (77.0% smash), and people prefer Randy Orton sans mustache (62.3% smash) to Randy Orton with mustache (50.9% smash).

Also like...88.7% of you would have done Minoru Suzuki when he was young, but only 51.8% of you would do old Suzuki? To echo the sentiments of a few reblogs, is this not the "sexualize that old man" website?

In actual blog news, the 250th poll was posted today, and we hit 500 followers a couple weeks ago but I forgot until now. Thank you so much to everyone who's followed, submitted poll requests, reblogged, liked, and otherwise interacted with this blog!

And now for some of my favorite tags and comment

@lghockey on Gorgeous George: #what in the revolutionary war is that haircut

@booboo-eyedbambi on Bear Boulder: #i need him to squish me like he's trying to get the last of his toothpaste out of me

@midcarder on Minoru Suzuki: #the only reason to not fuck suzuki is because you're afraid

@regalityandcoffee on Carmelo Hayes: #on one hand hes hot#in the other hand i once had a dream he tried to kill me so- I once had a dream that William Regal put drugs in my suitcase as I was going on vacation with Mox. Wrestlers are rude af in dreams.

Distances So Wide.

I died the day you went away,

I broke up all inside,

I felt my world just slip away,

Like the ebbing of the tide.

I prayed that you'd come back someday,

But the distance was too wide,

My life, my love, had gone away,

And I hung my head and cried.

I begged and pleaded with you to stay,

To be my blushing bride,

But you just smiled and turned away,

And my pleading you denied.

And now there's nothing left to say,

I'm all broken up inside,

My life, my love, has flown away,

And the distance is so wide.

Because I've had this in my head for a week (and I'm trying to write more).

~~~~

Cecil set the ink pen down on his desk and quickly looked over the letter making sure he'd included all the specifics before posting it to the mail. Letter folded, envelope addressed, he was about to place his wax seal when a knock came at his door. Looking up at the clock it was far to early for Philip to be reminding him of his appointment tonight.

"Come." Cecil called as he placed the seal on the wax, assuming Philip or Molly needed his attention.

"Oh... of course, you're busy." A soft, familiar voice spoke.

Surprised, Cecil looked over as Ambrose, dressed in a night shirt and thin dressing gown, stood halfway in his door. Immediately, Cecil rose from his desk.

"Ambrose, why are you out of bed?" He asked pointedly but then relaxed, seeing Ambrose shrink back. "My apologies." Cecil softened his tone as he led the recovering man into his study. "Dr Fairchild wanted you on bedrest, remember?"

The fading light of the gas lamps still illuminated how pale Ambrose was as he sat next to Cecil on the sofa.

"That was three days ago, Hart. I've barely seen you since then." Ambrose leaned on Cecil's shoulder as a quilt was pulled over him.

"Again, my apologies, much has my attention lately. I did not mean to upset you by not visiting. Molly has kept me abreast of your health." Cecil replied as he entangled his fingers in Ambrose's loose curls.

Ambrose only hummed in return, his hand searching for Cecil's beneath the quilt.

Their peace was interrupted a bit later as a frantic knock came as Molly burst in, "Master Lockhart I..." She stopped as her eyes found the sick man. "Mr. Beaumont! There you are!" Molly's normally sweet tone held quite the frustration.

Ambrose slunk further under the safety of the covers. Cecil stifled a chuckle. "It appears you've been found."

"Apologies, sir," Molly said to Cecil, "Mr Beaumont did not inform staff he'd left his bed. I was worried he'd fainted again."

Cecil cast his eyes down at Ambrose, who was sitting up, keeping the quilt wrapped around him.

"I did not mean to cause concern, Molly. I only needed a change of venue." He stood up slowly as Molly put her arm behind his back, leading him towards the door. Cecil rose as well.

"Also, Mr. Montague should be arriving shortly. Philip is preparing the front parlor for him." Molly said as they all entered the hallway.

"Very good, I have a few issues to see before that." Cecil then looked at Ambrose. "Goodnight. Sleep well." He nodded his head then turned walking the opposite way.

Ambrose stood watching, only pivoting when he felt Molly leading him.

"I am sorry for interrupting your time with the Master." She said, "I know your time together these last weeks has been brief." She paused as Ambrose coughed into his elbow.

"It has..." Ambrose cleared his throat, "I'm sure tides will turn soon." He said, his tone full of disbelief.

"I'm sure it will." Molly replied in the same tone.

[probablyasocialecologist]

It’s worth reminding ourselves just how often and insistently the New Testament hammers home its anti-wealth message.

Notoriously, the sayings of Jesus himself include some of the strongest language. He urges unstinting giving to anyone who asks (Matt. 5:42), forbids storing up wealth (6:19), discourages caring for the next day’s food and clothing (6:31), and warns that to serve both God and money is impossible (6:24). He pronounces blessings on the poor and woes on the wealthy (Luke 6:20–26). His counsel to the rich young ruler to “sell all” is thus of a piece with a broader agenda, which draws on the Hebrew prophets. Although it’s often noted that in this particular case Jesus’ call to total renunciation applies to just one individual, in Luke’s Gospel he addresses almost identical words to all his disciples (he uses second-person-plural verb forms): “Sell your possessions, and give alms … and you shall have treasure in heaven” (Luke 12:33–34). Two chapters later, he doubles down with an even more categorical statement: “None of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your possessions” (Luke 14:33).

How were his followers to put such teachings into practice? Luke suggests the answer in the sequel to his Gospel, the Book of Acts, when he describes the founding of the first church in Jerusalem after Pentecost. Here, at the very moment of the Christian movement’s birth, common ownership of wealth figures as an original mark of the church:

All who believed were together and had all things in common; and they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, as any had need. (Acts 2:44–45)

Now the company of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had everything in common. … There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of what was sold and laid it at the apostles’ feet; and distribution was made to each as any had need. (Acts 4:32–35)

As the theologian David Bentley Hart sums up: “Simply said, the earliest Christians were communists … not as an accident of history but as an imperative of the faith.” This was a communism arising voluntarily from mutual love, not from state-enforced conformity. Even for believers, it’s presented as an exemplary model, not a legalistic rule. All the same, this “communism” is hardly just a spiritualized ideal, but rather a practical economic reality. The apostle Paul strikes similar notes in his repeated exhortations to the Gentile churches to practice koinonia – the generous sharing, including economic sharing, that for Paul is central to the Christian way (2 Cor. 8:13–15).

This anti-wealth message didn’t disappear from Christianity after the faith was legalized by Constantine. On the contrary, as Charles Avila shows in his 1983 study Ownership: Early Christian Teaching, bishops of the fourth and fifth centuries – notably Clement of Alexandria, Ambrose of Milan, John Chrysostom, Basil of Caesarea, and Augustine of Hippo – preached fiercely and often on these very scriptural passages. The church fathers went on to root the New Testament’s teachings in nature itself. As Ambrose put it:

Nature has brought forth all things for all in common. Thus God has created everything in such a way that all things be possessed in common. Nature therefore is the mother of common right, usurpation of private right.

The Milanese bishop seems to have anticipated by fifteen hundred years Proudhon’s maxim, “Private property is theft.”

All this helps explain why in Pinianus and Melania’s day, there had been no “Constantinian shift” on wealth, no abrupt relaxation of primitive rigor. (By contrast, in those same years the church jettisoned another of its once-widely-held convictions – that Christians may not kill – rather more rapidly and thoroughly.) Long after Christianity had become a majority faith, as McCarraher observes, “a barely repressed desire for communism … lurked as the political unconscious of medieval Christendom.”
