HEAR ME OUT!! VAGGIE IN A SUIT THING 😍

[shiny-eyed-corvid]

Do you ever worry that an item you pick up might be covered or laced with something gross/dangerous?

hey anon! i’m definitely mindful of this, especially in a big city like nyc that has all sorts of gross and hazardous materials around, but that’s why I pick up almost everything with a set of these bad boys that I keep in my bag at all times

they’re called trongs and are meant for handling messy food, but I was looking for a solution that was easier than stopping and putting a glove on and taking it off again all the time and these fit the bill for me!

I also wear waterproof work gloves (and sometimes a mask) when I clean items, so in general I’m not touching them with my bare skin until they have been cleaned/disinfected. And of course I always wash and/or sanitize my hands after handling any items.

Thanks for the ask! stay safe out there ✨🐦‍⬛

Rebel Jewish Coin Dating to Anti-Roman Revolt Discovered in Israel

A rare half-shekel coin dug up in the Ein Gedi nature reserve was inscribed with the words “The Holy Jerusalem” in Hebrew.

A rare half-shekel silver coin from the first year of the First Jewish Revolt against the Romans about two millennia ago has been discovered in the Judean Desert. The rare coin, discovered in the area of the Ein Gedi nature reserve, had the words “The Holy Jerusalem” in ancient Hebrew on the coin’s face.

The coin, dated to 66/67 CE when the Second Temple was destroyed in Jerusalem, was found in the Judean Desert Survey led by the Israel Antiquities Authority together with the Heritage Ministry and the staff officer of the Civil Administration Archaeology Unit in Judea and Samaria carried out over the last six years with the aim of retrieving these ancient finds before the antiquity looters.

Recently, in the course of examining every cave and crack in the rock, Israel Antiquities Authority inspectors reached a cliff in a wadi near En Gedi when they came across the coin on the ground at the entrance of one of the caves.

One explanation for this find is that the Jerusalem-minted coin fell from the pocket of a rebel who escaped to the desert during the revolt – perhaps on his way to nearby En Gedi.

On one side of the coin, “The Holy Jerusalem” appears – the word “Holy” spelled without a vowel, reflecting the development of the writing on the coins that appeared later on in the Revolt as “The Holy Jerusalem” with the vowel. Three pomegranates are depicted on the center of the coin – a familiar symbol as it was adopted on the old Israeli lira coin that was currency in the State of Israel until 1980.

On the other side of the coin, a chalice (goblet) is depicted, above which the letter “Aleph” appears marking the first year of the outbreak of the Revolt and the value “Half-Shekel.” The chalice is a characteristic symbol on Jewish coins in currency towards the end of the Second Temple period.

Jewish rebels minted their own coins

These coins were minted in the values of shekel and half-shekel at the time of the First Revolt of the Jews against the Romans in Judea between the years 66 to 70 CE.

In line with the Torah commandment prohibiting the depiction of images, the Jews used vegetal motifs and cultic and religious symbols on their coins, while the pagan population depicted symbols such as animals and the portrait of the ruling emperors and the Greek language that was the common language employed at the time.

As part of the Jewish defiance, and the creation of an internal “Jewish Revolt economy,” the rebels minted their own silver and bronze coins depicting Jewish symbols.

The rebels decided to use the archaic Hebrew script that was current several hundred years earlier at the time of the First Temple Period instead of the Greek script that was used by the population in the country and the region at the time of the Second Temple.

The leaders of the Jewish Revolt decided to defy the rulers and to mint silver coins autonomously, using the Hebrew script and without the image of the ruling Emperor. It seems that the coins were minted in Jerusalem, possibly in the Temple area.

According to Yaniv David Levy, the Israel Antiquities Authority’s numismatic scholar, “coins from the first year of the Revolt such as this one, are rare. During the Second Temple period, Jewish pilgrims used to pay a Temple Tax in half-shekel coins.

For about 200 years, Tyrian-minted coins (tetradrachms from Tyre, which in the Roman Empire took on an unusual role as the medium of payment for the Temple tax in Jerusalem) made of fine silver and a status symbol in the region, were used for this contribution.

In the course of the revolt the rebels minted alternative coins inscribed with “Shekel Israel,” “Half-Shekel,” and “Quarter-Shekel” coins. It seems that the rituals in the Temple continued during the revolt and these coins were now used by the rebels.

ROPE OF THE WEEK (3):

SISAL ROPE

FROM ROPE AND CORD / ROPE & CORD

(It’s actually called that)

I LOVE ROPE AND CORD!!!

THEY’RE MY FAVORITE STORE!!!

BUT I'M NEVER ABLE TO SHOP THERE BECAUSE I’M BANNED 

(He used to visit that store every day from opening to closing hour and harassed customers and employees by telling them rope facts)

I WILL NOW TELL YOU ABOUT ONE OF THE ROPES I USED TO BUY THERE ALL THE TIME BEFORE I GOT BANNED

WITH 9 REVIEWS (SURPRISINGLY) AND RATED 5 STARS

THIS SISAL ROPE IS THREE-STRANDED AND TWISTED JUST LIKE THE ROPE BEFORE

(Rope of the week (2) link)

EXCEPT IT’S A SISAL ROPE INSTEAD OF A POLYETHYLENE

NOW YOU MAY BE WONDERING WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SISAL ROPE AND MANILA ROPE SINCE THEY ARE COMMONLY CONFUSED WITH EACH OTHER

WHICH I DON’T GET WHY THEY ARE WHEN IT’S VERY OBVIOUS

I WILL NOW TELL YOU THE DIFFERENCE!

(Took up too much time will be explained in another post)

NOW YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!

THIS ROPE’S DIAMETER RANGES FROM 3/16 IN. TO 1 IN

WHICH MEANS YOU CAN USE IT FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES BECAUSE IT’S DIAMETER ISN’T LIMITED

BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS YOU CAN’T CLIMB A ROPE THAT IS 3/15 IN.

AND AS I SAID BEFORE, THE DIAMETER AFFECTS THE STRENGTH SO IT CAN HOLD AS LITTLE AS 540 POUNDS (WHICH IS STILL SUPER STRONG) TO 8100 POUNDS!!!!

THIS ROPE IS SO STRONG!!!!!!!!!!

IF I WAS THAT STRONG I COULD HOLD SO MANY ROPES!!!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT IT IS ALSO ROT AND ULTRAVIOLET RESISTANT

THOUGH IT SADLY SINKS IN WATER 

IT DOES SOMETHING COOLER IF YOU LET THE ROPE ABSORBS WATER

IT BECOMES STRONGER BY 120%!!!

IT TURNED ITS GREATEST WEAKNESS TO IT’S GREATEST STRENGTH

THIS ROPE IS MY IDOL

I AM TAKING SWIMMING LESSONS BECAUSE OF THIS ROPE

(Genuinely true, not an exaggeration)

YOU KNOW THE REASON WHY IT BECOMES STRONGER IN THE WATER BECAUSE ONE OF THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THIS ROPE IS TO MAKE FISHING NETS

THIS IS NOT ONLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE ROPE (THEY ARE ALL) BUT SAILOR WADDLE DEE’S FAVORITE ROPE 

I SEE THEM WALK INTO THE ROPE AND CORD STORE AND WALKING OUT WITH 600 FEETS OF THIS ROPE VERY OFTEN

WHICH COST AROUND 2,100 STAR COINS

I WAS WONDERING HOW THEY WERE ABLE TO AFFORD THAT MUCH ROPE BECAUSE I WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT

SO I ASKED THEM “HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO AFFORD THAT MUCH ROPE?”

THEY REPLIED:

"GAUN AWAY FRAE ME YE ROPE MAD RADGE! AH'M GONNY NAB THE BIGGEST F*CKIN FISH ANYBODY'S EVER CLAPPED EYES ON!"

(English translation:

Leave me alone you rope-obsessed idiot! I’m going to catch the largest f*cking fish anybody have ever seen! Radge is the Scottish term for dangerous idiot)

I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THEY WERE SAYING, SO I LEFT

RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN BUYING THIS ROPE MORE OFTEN FROM MY ROPE DEALER BECAUSE I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY FURNITURE

AND BEFORE I WAS BANNED I BOUGHT A LOT OF THIS ROPE TO DECORATE MY FURNITURE BECAUSE IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ART

I USED IT FOR MY RUGS, COASTERS, LAMPS, WALLS, PLANTS, TABLES, AND MUCH, MUCH MORE

SO I’VE BEEN REDECORATING MY NEW FURNITURE WITH MY ROPE

WHICH IS GREAT BECAUSE FURNITURE WITHOUT ROPE IS VERY UGLY

I RATE THIS ROPE A

10/10

[oifaaa]

Short haired Nami is so much better

Everyone keeps telling me pre time skip one piece is way better then post time skip and it's just making me want to stop watching once I get to the time skip ngl

Some info on the mileapo movie

Many parts of the Man Suang artwork represent the WAT ARUN temple in Bangkok:

A fan noticed this thai ornament:

It can be used to decorate houses. Some hang them on windows to emit fragrances or they can be used in religious ceremonies, especially wedding ceremonies.

During Siam Paragon’s CNY celebration, Apo talked shortly about the movie:

‘I lost 3-4 kg for the movie because at that time people believed that wearing a tight dance dress was beautiful. They also believed that dancing was like being in heaven. Therefore, the movement and the walking should be slow accordingly’.

During the presentation of the movie at the BOC projects lineup, they showed a small clip of Apo practicing the movement of the arms in this ancient dance:
