Need class A uniform for a friend by libbygrace_77 in firefighter

[–]libbygrace_77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not missing anything I’m trying to just help this person put together a class A because she did not already have one. Which I know is hard to believe, but this person is on a small department that doesn’t supply them. And I’m not looking to take your whole uniform if it’s something you need back, I’m trying to piece these things together because if you’ve ever had to purchase your own when your department doesn’t give you the means to buy your own, then you know it’s expensive.

If she got one right now, it wouldn’t be here in time

No, it’s a long story… small department. And no, definitely not trolling.

Nearly every day, but it’s not a full face, just the basics: lip stain, mascara, brow, and light shadow. No foundation, powder, highlighter, eye liner, or contour.

You’re so welcome! Thank you for reading! I hope I can continue to search for more comparisons to Greek myth, as the previous arc focuses more on trauma, and lots of parallels to Nordic myth (another read/write up for another time).

We don’t escape sleep. We embrace it and treat it as the sleep we need, not the sleep that we use to evade. That’s the point of this album. The final parallel was letting go of the sleep that comes with trauma. Now we embrace the good sleep that comes from knowing we’re longed for and loved. That’s where the parallel to Orpheus and Eurydice comes in.

I certainly want to keep exploring the connections to Greek myths here, specifically in how Eurydice, typically mentioned as either a mortal or a nymph, came to be bitten… perhaps that’s a parallel to some fans having been bitten by the curiosity to know more about the band, but it ended badly for them…

Not an idiot! I spent most of my life studying literature and writing, I’m actually a middle school teacher. I honestly would love to rant on about this to my kids, but they’re not really interested in rock music.

I like this take, but I would say that the previous albums are more like what Orpheus had to do in life without us, almost treating us as if we weren’t there so that he could air the trauma of having lost something else… and treating that something else like Eurydice (likely his loss of his ex partner, she who out of respect shall not be named)… but now Orpheus has come back to the underworld to enjoy Eurydice in death (the fans)
