Getting really strong Christopher Lee circa LotR vibes with this one

I am still upset about the passing of Donald Sutherland. Here is an article from GQ that I like in which he talks about why he begged Gary Ross to give him the role of President Snow.

Nobody asked me to do it [play Snow]. I wasn’t offered it [the role]. I like to read scripts, and it captured my passion. I wrote them a letter. The role of the president had maybe a line in the script. Maybe two. Didn’t make any difference. I thought it was an incredibly important film, and I wanted to be a part of it. I thought it could wake up an electorate that had been dormant since the ’70s. I hadn’t read the books. To be truthful, I was unaware of them. But they showed my letter to the director, Gary Ross, and he thought it’d be a good idea if I did it. He wrote those wonderfully poetic scenes in the rose garden, and they formed the mind and wit of Coriolanus Snow.

in 2017, government documents revealed that Sutherland had been on a NSA watchlist due to his anti-war [Vietnam War] activities. Here's an article where his son, Keifer Sutherland, talks about how the FBI raided their house when he was a kid.

The time skip in book ten has me in a chokehold again… the emotional potential is too great. Our lonely little quartet on one cold and unnamed night on the run. I actually love how this turned out but I’m still not sold on Windwalker’s design.

I have this headcannon that the moment Nico realized his feelings for Percy was on Olympus when Percy calls him out by name in front of the Gods (and especially Hades) as a hero who deserves more recognition. I think that’s really what got him. Percy doesn’t praise anyone else by name in that speech, not even Annabeth, and this is right after Nico betrayed him and genuinely thought he had ruined their friendship forever. His brain would have broken I know it.

(Of course immediately after that Percy and Annabeth have the greatest underwater kiss of all time in front of the entire camp, probably including Nico. No wonder he leaves camp in such a hurry. Honestly it would make the complete 180 his attitude towards Percy takes in HOO make sense, like he goes from always excited to see him to barely making eye contact. Nico saved the world, fell in love, and got his heart broken all in one day)

Exercises for all the homies who want to have a long career drawing.

The true problem with being an artist and drawing all day (as I wanted my whole life) is that human backs are not designed to hold that position, so it is very common for artists and designers to have really stiff shoulder blades, creating a chain of muscle strain towards the arm AND the back… and a lot of pain.

These are some physical exercises for artists and honestly anyone who works at a desk.

If that doesn't have potential for some fairytale nonsense, I don't know what does.

I don’t think we talk enough about how the entirety of Wicked is built on the irony of No One Mourns the Wicked. The musical exists because Glinda feels the need to tell Elphaba’s story, because she is in mourning and entirely alone in that. Glinda’s love is what creates the musical because no one mourns Elphaba except her, and that is an incredibly lonely place to be. She’s just lost two of the most important people to her, and all she’s trying to do is make someone, anyone else see how important they were.

One of my gripes with the pjo show was, ultimately, the portrayal of the gods. Like, when I just think of them I imagine powerhouses, persona and all. Heck, even if they are chill and laid back as a cover, around a certain point you'd even notice their aura for power. But, in the show....I don't really get that vibe. Like Ares letting the kids talk back and all that, when he was quick to check him the books or how the mere presence of Hades had the trio on edge. Heck, Percy got flack from Zeus for failing to address him first, so how would he just be fine with letting Percy run his mouth like that, no matter how right he was? And I'm not saying that it had to be just like the books, but it doesn't seem that hard to make these gods intimidating.

something about dragonese being considered a "nerd" thing and being banned outright and how it starts (as so many things do in the httyd books) as a childish joke that doesn't really mean much and develops as you read into yet another horrifying way in which vikings have enslaved dragons, taking away all respect and wonder and fear from them to make them into caricatures, poorly kept pets instead of the intelligent, sentient creatures that they are

You know you've fucked up when you go to a doctor and the thing you have wrong with you has been named after an occupation that isn't a thing anymore. Like imagine a doctor looking at you and going "yeah you've got ox-drawn ploughman's disease. We don't even test for that anymore. Yeah the reason you've never heard of it is because the last known case was in 1927 and happened to some guy who was like 98 years old and didn't believe in modern medicine of the time. What the fuck have you been up to."

Mystery Inc. but it’s the 1890s

Who had late Victorian Scooby Doo on their 2024 bingo card? Hmm?

The idea came to me when I was thinking about Sherlock Holmes and then remembered the iconic mystery solving gang hehe
