Story time! My great grandfather was in the Resistance during the war (he was part of the FFI, French Forces of the Interior). He got arrested by french officers in May 1944, managed to escape from Loos-lès-Lille’s prison on July 14th (pretty badass), but was found back a dozen days later.
He was shot on August 16th, 1944 at Seclin Fort.
So here are some researches for a possible adaptation of the farewell letter he wrote before dying. There is still more to come :)
Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]
For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.
Beautiful.
Now I’m crying thanks
and a new cat was hired right?
yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy
she works very hard
Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.
Law
I’m crying at 11pm over train cats
Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016). There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.
Annecy short is over, time to prepare Japan Expo ! We’re doing a greek mythology serie with the girls, as stickers and badges: Hephaistos, Aphrodite, Dyonisus, Athena & Ares
