BURNING CITIES CONTINUED, THEN AND NOW.  8/8: Paris in Ruins: Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism by  Sebastian Smee  (Author) 1870 PARIS CLAUDE MONET 1840-1926 https://www.amazon.com/Paris-Ruins-Love-Birth-Impressionism/dp/1324006951/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0LrrcogTAXmGjiJTXHGqcmh6tG316iU_qBRT5krAjbY8X2w9audnxQy7kzk7OLkh_2lSbQ2ybUZGAqxzqsV7SIXXh__kEnq4cHn6QdDz3Vu5xuCtROqvHYC4bnq-Wd16OQ0xBFKI0YF5Q12M2HxhsXNW0KzxEvl3JkXmjEm-lB835FTP4AOXbZmDkXRwFFwP8JAim1mTpk-tRD1mx2eyRyT4izNxH2zOMi6vWoub4fk.sBKL5PJ8cK_YQQ9SXWo2jUROfRmEzorpra10Qr1m--0&dib_tag=se&qid=1739487181&refinements=p_27%3ASebastian+Smee&s=books&sr=1-1 From the summer of 1870 to the spring of 1871, famously dubbed the “Terrible Year” by Victor Hugo, Paris and its people were besieged, starved, and forced into surrender by Germans―then imperiled again as radical republicans established a breakaway Commune, ultimately crushed by the French Army after bloody street battles and the burning of central Paris. As renowned art critic Sebastian Smee shows, it was against the backdrop of these tumultuous times that the Impressionist movement was born―in response to violence, civil war, and political intrigue. In stirring and exceptionally vivid prose, Smee tells the story of those dramatic days through the eyes of great figures of Impressionism. Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Edgar Degas were trapped in Paris during the siege and deeply enmeshed in its politics. Others, including Pierre-August Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, joined regiments outside of the capital, while Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro fled the country just in time. In the aftermath, these artists developed a newfound sense of the fragility of life. That feeling for transience―reflected in Impressionism's emphasis on fugitive light, shifting seasons, glimpsed street scenes, and the impermanence of all things―became the movement's great contribution to the history of art. At the heart of it all is a love story; that of Manet, by all accounts the father of Impressionism, and Morisot, the only woman to play a central role in the movement from the start. Smee poignantly depicts their complex relationship, their tangled effect on each other, and their great legacy, while bringing overdue attention to the woman at the heart of Impressionism

Many of the most loyal, dedicated men often find themselves confused when their relationships struggle despite genuinely wanting them to succeed.In this eye-opening episode of "So You're Living in a Simulation," Joli (@joli.artist) shares a fascinating pattern she discovered while reading veteran memoirs that reveals something profound about how we're all programmed to approach love.Men are taught to see women as "base camp" - the safe retreat you return to for rest and healing. But what if she's supposed to be your "battle buddy" instead - an equal partner fighting life's battles right alongside you?"Life is a battlefield for all of us. But while men are trained to see it that way, women are thrown into it without the training - yet we're still here, taking hits right alongside you."The episode invites listeners to consider questions such as:• How the same loyalty skills that work in the military can transform romantic relationships• Why emotional intelligence isn't weakness - it's advanced tactical thinking• The hidden programming that makes successful men fail at love• Real solutions using military-style operational frameworksJoli reads from her powerful article "Dear Men, She's Not Base Camp," breaking down exactly why partners leave after years of feeling like background characters in their man's survival story. But this isn't just criticism - it's a blueprint for change."You know how to assess risk, scan for threats, and triage under fire. So let's run the same framework in your relationship."The breakthrough insight: Men already possess all the skills needed for deep intimacy - they just haven't been taught to deploy them domestically. Using combat metaphors throughout, Joli shows how emotional support is actually advanced tactical operations, and why treating your partner's pain as "real intel" changes everything.For veterans and civilians alike, this episode offers a path from emotional isolation to true partnership, because if you can handle a battlefield, you can definitely handle a relationship. You just need the right operational manual.Article: Dear Men, She's Not Base Camp; She's on the Battlefield Too.https://medium.com/@joli.artist/dear-men-shes-not-base-camp-she-s-on-the-battlefield-too-24000e470f21youroneblackfriend.com•••Timestamps:00:00 Introduction: Veterans and the simulation awakening03:40 The warrior class in a dystopian society07:13 Deep dive into veteran memoirs and war psychology10:58 The intentional cycle: trauma to reenlistment14:54 The recurring pattern: warriors abandoned by love21:05 Article reading: "Dear Men, She's Not Base Camp"42:51 Reclaiming your life after being weaponized•••Key Explored Questions:What's the difference between base camp and battle buddy mentality?Why do men treat male friends differently from female partners?How to respond when your partner is emotionally distressed?How to apply tactical thinking to love and partnership?Why do veterans struggle with civilian relationship adjustment?What does operational respect mean in relationships?How to break free from toxic relationship programming?•••#relationships #veterans #ptsd

This week on Michigan Hidden History, we tour Coldwater's Wing House Museum—a home built for love, sold out of spite, and inherited by a Civil War hero turned cigar mogul. It's a story full of failed romance, steam-powered explosions, and bold real estate moves. Come for the Victorian architecture, stay for the marital drama and historical pettiness.

Few bands have flown the flag for melodic metal as long and as passionately as Lillian Axe, and at the heart of it all is guitarist, songwriter, and founding member Steve Blaze. Known for their powerful hooks, soaring melodies, and spiritual undertones, Lillian Axe carved out a unique spot in hard rock history. Emerging from the vibrant Louisiana music scene in the mid-1980s, the band quickly gained a loyal following with their self-titled debut produced by Ratt's Robbin Crosby, and followed it with the critically acclaimed Love + War, a staple in any glam metal enthusiast's collection.Steve Blaze has always been more than just a guitar hero. He's a storyteller, a spiritual seeker, and a guardian of the band's legacy. Throughout decades of shifting musical trends and industry challenges, Blaze has remained the driving creative force behind Lillian Axe. From the haunting harmonies of “Show a Little Love” to the crushing riffs of “Crucified,” the band has consistently delivered music with depth, drama, and heart.While many of their peers faded into nostalgia circuits, Lillian Axe has continued to evolve. Their later albums like Waters Rising, XI: The Days Before Tomorrow, and 2022's From Womb to Tomb showcase a band unafraid to explore new sonic terrain while staying true to its roots. Blaze's songwriting has grown more conceptual and emotionally resonant, often tackling themes of life, death, and the metaphysical. The band's loyal fanbase—affectionately known as “Axeheads”—has followed them every step of the way.In this interview, Steve Blaze opens up about the band's journey, his personal evolution, and what continues to drive him creatively after all these years, Blaze proves once again why he remains one of the most thoughtful minds in rock and metal. He shares not only behind-the-scenes moments from the band's legacy but also a glimpse of what's coming next.Whether you're a longtime fan or a curious newcomer, now's a great time to dive into the world of Lillian Axe. Check out their music, tour updates, and latest releases at the official site: https://www.lillianaxe.com. And don't forget to follow them on Facebook and YouTube for more from the band that proves true metal never dies—it just gets wiser, deeper, and louder.⸻

It's 1998, and was all fair in love and war? Some say no, as Harvey Weinstein launched an Oscar campaign of attrition to get himself an award for theatre kids' ideal romcom Shakespeare in Love, while also slandering rival Steven Spielberg's intense war movie Saving Private Ryan. Claire, Erin, Dan, and returning guest Kevin break down both, ask whether Shakespeare deserves the hate it got for defeating Private Ryan, what each film does well, whether Dan is wrong about his preference or if he's just speaking truth to power (or in this case internet film bros), and who had the best powerhouse ensemble. But one cannot talk box office hits of the 90s without addressing Michael Bay, and international box office champ Armageddon is here for us. Love, war, rocks from space, join the unhinged breakdown!Find all of our episodes and the rest of Writing Therapy Productions' various entertainments at www.writingtherapyproductions.com

8/8: Paris in Ruins: Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism Hardcover – September 10, 2024 by  Sebastian Smee  (Author) 1870 PARIS  https://www.amazon.com/Paris-Ruins-Love-Birth-Impressionism/dp/1324006951/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0LrrcogTAXmGjiJTXHGqcmh6tG316iU_qBRT5krAjbY8X2w9audnxQy7kzk7OLkh_2lSbQ2ybUZGAqxzqsV7SIXXh__kEnq4cHn6QdDz3Vu5xuCtROqvHYC4bnq-Wd16OQ0xBFKI0YF5Q12M2HxhsXNW0KzxEvl3JkXmjEm-lB835FTP4AOXbZmDkXRwFFwP8JAim1mTpk-tRD1mx2eyRyT4izNxH2zOMi6vWoub4fk.sBKL5PJ8cK_YQQ9SXWo2jUROfRmEzorpra10Qr1m--0&dib_tag=se&qid=1739487181&refinements=p_27%3ASebastian+Smee&s=books&sr=1-1 From the summer of 1870 to the spring of 1871, famously dubbed the “Terrible Year” by Victor Hugo, Paris and its people were besieged, starved, and forced into surrender by Germans―then imperiled again as radical republicans established a breakaway Commune, ultimately crushed by the French Army after bloody street battles and the burning of central Paris. As renowned art critic Sebastian Smee shows, it was against the backdrop of these tumultuous times that the Impressionist movement was born―in response to violence, civil war, and political intrigue. In stirring and exceptionally vivid prose, Smee tells the story of those dramatic days through the eyes of great figures of Impressionism. Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Edgar Degas were trapped in Paris during the siege and deeply enmeshed in its politics. Others, including Pierre-August Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, joined regiments outside of the capital, while Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro fled the country just in time. In the aftermath, these artists developed a newfound sense of the fragility of life. That feeling for transience―reflected in Impressionism's emphasis on fugitive light, shifting seasons, glimpsed street scenes, and the impermanence of all things―became the movement's great contribution to the history of art. At the heart of it all is a love story; that of Manet, by all accounts the father of Impressionism, and Morisot, the only woman to play a central role in the movement from the start. Smee poignantly depicts their complex relationship, their tangled effect on each other, and their great legacy, while bringing overdue attention to the woman at the heart of Impressionism

[SEGMENT 1-1] Conversion of Leftists 1 Lots to discuss… Travel observations   [X] SB – Trump commercial featuring Harris on Bidenflation   Posted on X. The funny thing is, for 55 years I always thought I was a liberal. I always loved and got along with everybody. I never judged anybody. I never fought with anybody. I obeyed the laws and paid my taxes. I wanted everything to be safe and happy. Then TRUMP came along and the world went haywire. So now if I want to be a liberal, I have to: Hate white people Hate Jewish people Hate Christians. Hate the unborn. Fear the weather. Fear the flu. Support child sex changes. Want criminals to go free. Not want a border. Love WAR. Love illegal immigration. And want every country to get more money and attention than my own. This is how I became a Conservative. Not because I love the Republicans. But because I CAN'T LOVE what the democrats want to do to this country. I LOVE MY COUNTRY! IM VOTING FOR DONALD TRUMP![SEGMENT 1-2] Conversion of Leftists 2 It's easy to convert Leftists these days. No matter how the Left hype Harris, Harris-Walz, the reality of Biden-Harris hits them in the face. Not just Bidenflation, but other things. Before we get to some of that, how about that upcoming debate? [X] SB – Byron Donalds on the debate Keep the same rules Open mic Interruptions [X] SB – Kamala Harris asked about Trump rolling back DEI  [SEGMENT 1-3] Revelations 1 What did I tell you about revelations?   [X] SB – Supercut MSNBC Scarborough on Hunter Biden's laptop being Russian misinformation NY Post KNEW was a lie Published a series of lies. Peddled by Rudy Giuliani Feeding Russian misinformation to Trump and NY Post History will expose you all as useful idiots for the Russians Running cover for Russian   Facebook admits it bowed to pressure under the Biden administration… They suppressed information on Hunter's laptop.  [SEGMENT 1-4] Revelations 2     [X] SB – Trump comments on suckers and losers   [X] SB – John Kirby makes excuses for Biden on anniversary of Afghanistan   Election fraud. Pure and simple. And like almost all Leftist cheats, we get acknowledgement after the fact, and NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

There was a time when the Democratic Party marketed itself as a home for the anti-war Left, with protesters routinely showing up at Republican events to condemn American involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, with the election of Barack Obama, those voices fell silent, and since then, both major political parties have demanded more wars, more drone strikes, and more military spending. Tulsi Gabbard, author of “For Love of Country: Leave the Democrat Party Behind,” rose to national prominence as a veteran and presidential candidate bold enough to stand up to the war machine, and for her efforts she was demonized as a traitor and a Russian asset. In this conversation with Matt Kibbe, Gabbard explains why she parted ways with her old party and what Americans can do to take back their power over the political elite who are supposed to work for them.

Tread Perilously's Ampersand Month continues with an episode of the obscure sitcom Love & War called "I Love a Parade." The gang manages to get a fairly decent spot for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, even if they all forgot to buy coffee with their donuts. The festivities take a turn when a random woman asks Jack to hoist her son up on his shoulders so he can see the floats. She soon disappears, leaving the others to search for her. Meanwhile, Dana and Jack discuss the best course action. Will they end up raising the child as their own or will a Thanksgiving miracle save the day? Erik and Justin get lost in the woods right quick. The show's supporting cast, which includes Joanna Gleason, Charles Robinson, and Suzie Plakson, gets high marks. Leads Annie Potts and Jay Thomas end up not as lauded, although both get discussed a great deal. Potts proves to be a Tread Perilously sweetheart while Thomas ... well, Thomas is another matter all together. Justin eulogizes the sitcom as a format while Erik suggests Love & War represents its lowest ebb. They try to re-conceive the show for Plakson and Michael Nouri (who also appears in the episode) and find a better use for the rest of the cast.

In her new novel Loot, Tania James writes of a 17-year-old woodworker who's commissioned to build a tiger automaton for the Indian ruler Tipu Sultan in the 18th century. The story is inspired by the real-life Tippoo's Tiger, one of the most famous sculptures in London's Victoria and Albert Museum. James' tale of colonization, war, love and art stretches across India and Europe – and as she tells NPR's Ari Shapiro, it continues to raise questions about historical artifacts and who should own them.
