alan alda storytime

the full story from one of the screenshots of my previous post.

story begins with my archaeology professor showing a slide of alan alda in the early 2000s holding some mammoth bones and asks the class if anyone recognizes him. i had watched some MASH with my mother when i was little and had also seen the movie The Object of My Affection, so i raised my hand and said it was alan alda. he lit up and said yes, it was, and told the rest of the class he used to be on this old show, and that when we got more into the bioanthro side of things, remind him to 'tell his alan alda story'.

about 2 months later, we are in bioanthro, and i remind him. he gets excited and says he included slides to talk about it.

[rest under cut]

he tells us how he had just moved to a new city, and he had taken a university job in order to get insurance for his new family [which he didnt get but thats neither here or there]. he gets news that his job is going to be working with Scientific American Frontiers, hosted by the one and only Alan Alda. my prof was thrilled, he loves MASH, and while he specifically wouldnt be involved in the process [being a presenter, working with alan, etc] he was allowed to be around incase they needed help.

i dont know the specific episode, or if it can be found anywhere, but the topic was early man and tools, and how there were mammoth bones that specifically had cuts that could only be made with tools, not by teeth from an animal. they had finished filming for the day and just needed B-roll of some lions at the local zoo chewing some bones [part of the experiment], and alan got a call. he asked if he could head out now, because he needed to get back to his hotel now, and the call had been important. the producers said sure, go ahead, and alan asked if someone could give him a ride.

my professor, having the chance to actually spend time with someone he idolized, and being a stupid late 20s-something, volunteered immediately. stupid why? well, i said he'd just moved there. he didnt know where the hell anything was, and he didnt have GPS available to him, he was just really excited. so they get in the car and start driving.

as i said in my previous post, alan alda had about 20 minutes with this random guy, and found out pretty quickly that he was an archaeologist, and the amazing topic of conversation that he picked was the [then new] theory that we developed agriculture specifically to make booze, and that the rest of the stuff was more or less a biproduct. which is pretty on-brand honestly.

after a while, alan catches on to the fact that this guy clearly has no idea where the hell hes going, and that they've been driving in circles around the city for a while now. he [reportedly very politely] said that actually, this here was his stop, and thanked him for the ride. he then most likely called a taxi that actually knew where it was going, and got to his hotel.

turns out the call was about The Aviator! the call was important because he learned it was confirmed he in it and they needed him to get over there.

its not a glamourous story, but its the only story i got. my prof reported he was a funny guy, and despite slightly kidnapping the poor man for a while, he was the picture of kindness and personability. and clearly he likes telling the story and it left an impression, because he took time out of our already-short lecture to tell a class of 20-somethings that had no idea who Alan Alda was about it.

sorry this is so verbose i dont know how to be short lmao

cursed to lie awake at night rotating peter strahm and mark hoffman around inside my mind.

Can't stop thinking about making an AU where hoffman chickens out re the glass coffin room and just lets strahm go, being immediately rewarded w blunt force trauma as strahm knocks him out, stuffs him in the trunk of his car and just starts driving west. Two pathetic, middle aged men each fucking up the perfect opportunity to finally kill eachother and then just absolutely panicking about it and fleeing in the aftermath. Constantly paranoid that the other one is pulling off some master plan re this kidnapping but really they just spend a lot of time in shitty motels and Denny's, watching hoffmans Police Academy dvds on a little portable dvd player they get from Walmart. Visiting tiny tourist traps together and comparing eachother to the bad taxidermy in little museums

Also Hoffman spending 80% of the kidnapping/road trip thinking that strahm has some big poetic justice waiting for Mark when he gets there. Finding out later that Peter is just as fucked as he is, literally has no plan and has just been driving to the grand canyon bc he saw it on a postcard once.

another rdr2 g/t photoset that's exclusively sean and giant arthur because I am currently obsessed over this little irishman

(using these photos again for an intro because it just looks epic and cinematic to me and I wanted a compilation of different angles)

(big arthur waking sean up while rev swanson sleeps through it all)

(sean w/ his morning coffee having a little chat with g!Arthur, not without a little big insult thrown in here and there :))

(WOAH big loomies. Sean getting his morning coffee. I think he is a little intimidated with arthur looming so close to him 'jesus fucking christ arthur!' I love these ones :>)

more screenshots to come at a later time; i had so many good Sean ones I couldn't resist posting them. PERSPECTIVE BABEY

CRYING over this art comm by @moonamayillu 😭🥺 I LOVE THEM SO MUCH, THANK YOU. Kakuzu deserves to be taken care of a little 🥹

So, context; this is my OC, Izumi and she likes to pester Kakuzu by being nice to him😃More specifically, by braiding his hair because he doesn't take care of it himself. The first time she sees him with his cowl off she is absolutely appalled by the state of his hair, and knows in heart she must take a comb to it if it's the last thing she does 😤

Naturally, Kakuzu pretends he wants nothing to do with this, but does nothing to actually stop it. At this point, he's taken up the mantle of begrudging father figure for her, so yeah, he has a hard time saying no and enforcing it, especially when he does actually enjoy it himself. Secretly he prefers his hair in this braid for both functional and sentimental reasons 🥰

(They are featured from time to time in the fic Oh Honey, There Goes Your Bastard, but fair warning it's basically a big dumb soap opera with a lot of romance and drama)

okay i love the emotionally stupid gay men as much as the next guy (clearly) but man it was actually so refreshing to hear, explicitly in repeatable words!, that a character loves the other romantically and undeniably.

like, i get whats happening when characters dont say it in words, right? its been the way of doing things for years for reasons, but nowadays its mainly 'the character hasnt realized how they feel yet' or 'theyre in denial of how they feel' or 'they cant find it in them to say it out loud yet' and hey, those are all fine! theyre so super fun and add to the drama and story

but holy shit to actually hear stede be like 'the man i love is ed' (paraphrasing) like got damn and in the first season too??

just. what an absolute treat. didnt realize i wanted that until i got it. thank you.

george lucas handed an overwritten mess in and then the fandom + otherwise involved creators in the extended universe and other supplemental media have spent the last decades ritualistically dissecting it and reworking it’s constituent parts into some of the most fascinating worldbuilding you can get. and the average person has no knowledge of this and just watched disney completely fumble it within an hour and a half of their first title crawl in The Force Awakens and proceed to completely fall apart within the next 3 hours . and that’s just what star wars is to them
