Blues singer Marion Harris began her career in Chicago's vaudeville houses, later graduating to Broadway musicals in the late 1910s. At this time she began recording early jazz and blues songs in New York City, becoming the first widely known white singer to popularize the genre. She is pictured here at the top of her game in 1924.

Charlie Chaplin, Gloria Swanson (left) and Marion Davies (right) at a party held at the Ambassador's French Room on October 31, 1928, to celebrate Marion's return from a three-month tour.
Second photo - Marion Davies with Buster Keaton.
In the third photo - Gloria Swanson, Charlie Chaplin, Marion Davies and Harry Crocker.
In the group photo, guests, probably not all, who attended the party - standing, from left to right: Lorraine Eddy, Matt Moore, Aileen Pringle, Louis B. Mayer, Gloria Swanson, Harry D'Arrast, Miss Davies, Louella O. Parsons, Ricardo Cortez, Charlie Chaplin, Norma Shearer, Irving G. Thalberg, Harold Lloyd and Robert Z. Leonard. Seated in the foreground are Harry Crocker, left, and William Haines.
The Ambassador's French Room was transformed into a Parisian café for a surprise party for Miss Davies on 31 October 1928.
On this occasion, heartfelt thanks to the friends of the "Charlie Chaplin for the Ages" group on the Facebook community site, for providing some photos for this post.

[Holmes goes to choke Watson] Watson: Holmes! Holmes: Aha! You see what you did! You didn’t try to fight me or beat me off. You merely pushed my hands away. Watson: Yes, that's right. Holmes: Why? Watson: Well, I didn’t want to strike you. Holmes: Why? Watson: I didn’t want to injure you. Holmes: But I was choking you! Watson, smiling: My dear chap, I didn’t take that seriously.

Okay so me and my friends just watched My Policeman and we've been seeing a lot of bad reviews so we wanted to put our two cents in.
That was an incredible, heartbreaking story about queer history and the lengths some queer people had to go through in order to conceal their identities, as well as the consequences of being discovered.
We didn't really see it as an example of healthy relationships, due to the situation at the time they were unable to actually have any kind of stable relations. Had the situation been different they may have been able to live normal healthy lives.
It was moving seeing how through Marion gaining her freedom at the end, Tom gained his own.
Me and my friends had to remind ourselves that the actor for tom was Harry Styles multiple times, you can tell he is very passionate about the character and over arching story, along with the other very talented actors.
We went into this film not expecting much at all and came out very surprised and touched.
Absolutely beautiful imagery, cinematography, costume and set design, not only was this a beautiful story but a lovely watch as well.
8.5/10 easily

Its alot, like multiple notebooks of oneshots/ headcanons/fics. i just need to type up. Most notebooks are completely filled, but fair warning, most are spicy (i have not posted nsfw on my blog in the like 3 years I've had it, but that's probably gonna change). Theres multiple fandoms off the top of my head i can think of Forrest gump, Cobra, Camp Cretaceous, full metal jacket, Harry Potter, the Walking Dead, breaking bad, naruto, the outsiders, etc.
These are all the fanfic notebooks:
Tumblr media
Ps: i take x reader requests, just send a ask with a fandom (im in a lot, putting main ones in tags) and what you want to happen. I dont really have many limits unless you're a depraved perv, then i probably won't write your oneshot. I'll also write gender neutral/male/trans reader. i don't have a problem with that. Just specify, or I'll default to fem.
