Whatever. Crying Jop. 🫴

Look at my man strugglin 😭

Slipping on the snow, grabbing onto Peglar and Morfin's ropes to hold himself up [I sense something metaphorical there...], just stumbling through by the end

Hands on his knees to catch his breath. Maybe Dezza isn't too used to this degree of physical labor. And I dunno anything about hauling, putting your littlest guy in the back must be either the best or worst strategy...

why did jopson make that face during lashing scene why did jirv make that face during lashing scene why did gibson make that face during lashing scene why did hickey make that face during lashing scene why did crozier make that face during lashing scene why did fitzjames have his eyes on crozier during entire lashing scene...many are asking these questions and more

#*stands up on a chair* i can't really speak for the others but ☝️ #i can tell you why i think jirv made that face!! #and it's because he thought he deserved punishment just as much as hickey did #john 'exercised clemency' for hickey and in his mind that's what lead to hickey kidnapping silna and causing all the chaos that happened #he's angry with himself because he thinks his leniency caused hickey to 'sin' further and that if he had just been harder on him maybe none #of this would have happened #so john refuses to look away from hickeys lashing because he is punishing himself too #but what i don't think he expected was to feel sympathy for hickey and to be shocked by the brutality of it all #i think this left jirv with some complicated feelings about hickey and himself and what Deserving something means and who gets to make that #decision. anyway. also it made him hornier than he's ever been in his life but that's a whole other rant in tags ( @fitzjamesbulletwound tags)

Davechella #22: The Archaeologist

As promised by Dave in the Q&A, here’s a playlist of music Dave listened to while working on The Terror!

(we’re not going to say it’s the last one any more 😅)

For Dave’s Le Vesconte playlist, Declan Hannigan chose Aphex Twin’s “Windowlicker”.

Missed Dave’s Q&A? Never fear — you can catch up by reading the whole thing in our Discord! Drop us an email if you don’t have the link.

And if you — yes YOU — would like to be part of Terror Camp 2025, have a look at our open job postings! ❄️✨

And a few additional tracks from Dave K!

The tracks I really lamented not being able to include because they're not on Spotify are:

Terror Camp is hiring!

We are looking to expand our volunteer staff for this year’s conference.

We have two job listings based on our current needs, but if we receive a lot of great applicants there is the possibility we’ll split up these responsibilities into 3 or even 4 separate positions.

Terror Camp is a fully volunteer, remote, asynchronous workplace (with occasional sync meetings as schedules permit). We communicate over Discord and organize our documentation over Notion and Google Drive.

We are looking for people who can devote up to a few hours a week, depending on the time of year. Commitment increases around the times of Submission Opening (June 1), Submission Closing/Acceptances (September 1-Oct 1) and the conference itself (early December).

Terror Camp looks great on your resume. You can say that you volunteer for a successful community-led online history & heritage conference with an audience in the thousands!
