55 12 Joe, Judith’s hawtness is a major plot point in the story. Holofernes is smitten with her, so he invites her into his tent to drink with him. But he ends up getting snockered, and falls asleep. At which point, Judith beheads him.

I think I got that right. It’s a long time since I read it. But I do remember that all the males in the story thought she was hawt.

57 From wikipedia, why Judy is a badass...
"In the story, Judith, a beautiful widow, is able to enter the tent of Holofernes because of his desire for her. Holofernes was an Assyrian general who was about to destroy Judith's home, the city of Bethulia. Overcome with drink, he passes out and is decapitated by Judith; his head is taken away in a basket (often depicted as being carried by an elderly female servant)."

Walk into an enemy camp, let the General seduce her and convince her to go back to his tent, the she does him in.

60 The account of the beheading of Holofernes by Judith is given in the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, and is the subject of many paintings and sculptures from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. In the story, Judith, a beautiful widow, is able to enter the tent of Holofernes because of his desire for her. Holofernes was an Assyrian general who was about to destroy Judith's home, the city of Bethulia. Overcome with drink, he passes out and is decapitated by Judith; his head is taken away in a basket (often depicted as being carried by an elderly female servant).

65 In the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, Holofernes was an invading Assyrian general known for having been beheaded by Judith, a Hebrew widow who entered his camp and beheaded him while he was drunk. Holofernes had been dispatched by Nebuchadnezzar to take vengeance on Israel, which had withheld assistance in his most recent war.

95 Every painting isn't meant for casual display in the home. The story of Judith and Holofernes was probably well known to the people of the day but this takes it to another level. The cold determination in her expression and the look of terror on his is a stunning contrast. Nothing subtle about the figures' poses or expressions. The deep red of the background echoes the blood spurting from the man's neck. This is a bloody, horrific moment and the artist doesn't soften it. Adding to the horror is that this is not just a quick beheading. Judith is sawing through his neck which would take time. Tough one.

Welcome to your weekend.

104 Judith came up in conversation yesterday, in relation to that Lawrence actress claiming she was the first female action movie star. In 1914, DW Griffith made a film -- the first biblical epic, and the first full-length feature film -- called "Judith of Bethulia." It starred Blanche Sweet (1896-1986). She beheaded Holofernes with a two-handed longsword. It co-starred Lil Gish. In this one, Lil did not shoot anybody. She got good at it later.

The old bag with the bag is meant to be Judith's servant, as Judith was a gentlewoman. The old servant was a trusted person who was probably her nursemaid, and thus loyal to a degree where she'd go along with anything her dear Lady Judith had in mind.

151 Every painting isn't meant for casual display in the home. The story of Judith and Holofernes was probably well known to the people of the day but this takes it to another level. The cold determination in her expression and the look of terror on his is a stunning contrast. Nothing subtle about the figures' poses or expressions. The deep red of the background echoes the blood spurting from the man's neck. This is a bloody, horrific moment and the artist doesn't soften it. Adding to the horror is that this is not just a quick beheading. Judith is sawing through his neck which would take time. . . .

Welcome to your weekend.

I think the did the weird thing of splitting the New Mexico Territory into both New Mexico and Arizona, but then waiting to admit Arizona just to keep a weird piece of American history trivia. There was no reason to do that in discrete operations, and Arizona got statehood only a bit more than a *month* after New Mexico. That wasn't some mistake where they all went "oh, shit" and then made Arizona a state, too. Both were in 1912, and both were carved out of the same territory.

Caine, Kane, other variations of that name are popular in countries where there was a Gallic speaking population. This is funny because it's origin can roughly be translated as, "son of a bitch".

Posted by: Bulgaroctonus
___

They paled in comparison to the smackdowns between my mom and dad. As funny as they were at the time, there were things I really didn't need to hear at such a young age.

I had just finished reading this:

'Seared Souls: How We Abuse Our Children', which is about the coarseness of language that is so common, even among grade-school libraries, and how it does abuse the innocence of children.

"Since I’m going to be criticizing a now widely accepted phenomenon, this piece may evoke eyerolls from some supporters. So be it, because certain things need to be said.
I must confess that with the way many of my fellow adults behave today, it can make me ashamed to be one. I almost sometimes feel as if I want to apologize to the children for the example the contemporary grown-up world now sets. We often lament, and rightly so, how disrespectful many modern youths are, yet a prerequisite for commanding respect is being respectable. There is little respectable about modern American culture."

The amazing part is hearing the same refrain over and over. The people suffering from seizures are told it's just "fear" of getting a shot.

North Carolina. But then if you go back far enough the Colonies would claim territory stretching all the way to the Pacific.

The neighbor next door was a lonely old lady, mean as the day was long - my called here Mrs. Kravitz after the nosy neighbor on Bewitched. She died finally and nice you couple bought the house - great neighbors, never say a word. Sometimes you can wait the bad neighbors out.

385 Thanks for the video of the people harmed by the injection and the instances of the population saying "you aren't hearing about people like me because I'm being silenced" yesterday. I couldn't watch it all. It was sickening, especially the young people.

NP, I couldn't finish watching it either. Seeing the children being forced to take the jab...

Not gonna lie, the parallels between the jab and the mark are uncanny.

-----------------
Lincoln signed the bill admitting West Virginia to the Union, on December 31. On March 26, 1863, West Virginia ratified the revised constitution to include the gradual emancipation of slaves. President Lincoln proclaimed that West Virginia would officially be recognized as a state on June 20, 1863.

Oh, and the lady who explained it so well. Vaccine advocacy approach, IIRC. A psychological method.

Not every shot is loaded, because that would be too obvious. Say 75% are fine, 25% will hurt the recipient permanently. People get the shot and they're fine, and they see that everyone else is fine. Except every once in a while someone isn't. But that person doesn't matter, because most everyone else was fine. So get the booster. Lather, rinse, repeat.

And stifle the social media accounts of people who WEREN'T fine, and gaslight the people who were harmed by telling them it was stress, or the flu, or COVID. You know, the COVID you weren't supposed to get if you got the injection.

The injection did nothing except for what it was meant to do.

Wolfus, that's interested me for some while. My name is a traditional Bible name. It seems common, but I think that's because it's been used for centuries. Yet other Hebrew names seem weird. Not too many Abdegnegos around.
