“The men sat in the next booth at the Brown Derby. My back was to them. Suddenly I perked up as I heard my name. “Liz Renay,” one of them said. “There’s a girl who had some tough breaks.” “She brought it on herself,” the other voice said. “Still … it’s kind of sad. She wasn’t just another one of those French pastries who come to Hollywood to look for fame. She had it. She has one of the most beautiful faces I ever saw. You know, she just missed being great.” I turned to get a look at the man who had just spoken. I recognized him as William Ornstein, a reporter for Hollywood Reporter. Ornstein spoke again: “Yeah, that Renay really could have made it big. She was on the way to becoming a superstar. Add a few good breaks and subtract a few of the bad ones and you know, she could have been Marilyn Monroe.”

/ From Liz Renay’s chatty, meandering autobiography My Face for the World to See (1971) /

Born on this day: the sublime Liz Renay (née Pearl Elizabeth Dobbins, 14 April 1926 - 22 January 2007) – b-movie actress / burlesque queen / jailbird / naive outsider painter / gangster Mickey Cohen’s moll / “Streaking Grandmother” / authoress of multiple volumes of sordid memoirs (including My First 2,000 Men and Staying Young) / all-round kitsch icon and the woman hailed by John Waters as “my idea of total glamour.” For Waters’ fans, Renay is venerated for her performance as Muffy St Jacques in punk masterpiece Desperate Living (1977) - especially for her acidic delivery of lines like, "I was having an erotic dream!" and "I sleep in the room next door - naked!" She’s also memorable in The Thrill Killers (1964) and The Hard Road (1970).

I've been having a delightful time stumbling over my emojis being used in random servers, so here's more

#It's seriously so funny to see an emote of mine in random conversation from a private server #emojis #art #rain world #Some people went even farther and apparently started using other art of mine as emotes #Which is fine but absolutely buck wild to stumble over #Since some of the art they chose is literally wip versions of my current pfp #??? Sure I guess 😂#rw survivor #rw monk #rw saint #spearmaster #Most of these were requests. The rest were just the emojis I use the most turned into scugs lol #You get to decide which was which lmfaoooo #Also here's some lore: a while back I made 'hunterwheeze'#and the bit was everyone liked it so much they wanted it in the server #So I said bet and threw a bunch of emotes to the staff to hear their thoughts #And way more than I thought got added!#Except for hunterwheeze 🤣🤣🤣#Instead they chose a super edited screenshot of some animation frame I made a few months ago I added last minute for giggles #Which I was DELIGHTED by. It's perfect #Also the only instance of the emote since it's technically not on this blog 😉 not transparent anyway #Oh and here's my favorite 'wild' emotes I've found:#1) that person that dmed me to reveal there was an animated emote for every variation of rivulets face I made that one time #(I was not allowed to join the server)#2) discovering an emote has been in use for months in a server swathed in drama and in the throes of being orchestized from the community #3) that one nightcat-saint emote appearing on a random server announcement (it's so niche I was astounded anyone used it lmfao)#Most sightings are totally benign but these were just hilarious

I'll never not believe that Davos is the one who fell first and harder. that he wasn't the one getting his heart truly broken. the one fighting for Aaron's love and attention and aching when he is denied. the one longing for Aeron and having to reckon with the fact that he can never truly have him, there's too much keeping them apart.

sure, Aeron has his own feelings, his own longing, his dread.

but you can see it in their faces, it's Davos's heart that's a mess, his soul that is aching, while Aeron is more confused and unsure of his own feelings and where they lie in the mess that is feuds and war and blood and kin.

Davos is angry but full of bitter, rage filled acceptance. Aeron is scared, confused, and stuck between acceptance and denial. and it's breaking me.

#Davos was down bad and suffering because of it and ill never be ok about it #thats the face of a man whose come to terms with his feelings and is wallowing in them and doom that surrounds him #he's angry! with the world. with fate. with Aeron for once again choosing the other side. with himself for his feelings.#Aeron is scared of what he feels. scared of loving Davos. scared of him in general. scared of what lies ahead.#he's in the grey area between denial and acceptance #he can't accept his fate #maybe Davos sees that he's suffering his pain alone and ks angru about that too #my roman empire #aeron bracken x davos blackwood #aeron x davos #davos blackwood #davos blackwood x aeron braken #davos x aeron #aeron bracken #brackwood #davron #hotd #house bracken #house blackwood

Have a Sun, Moon, and a StarrSpice!

I’ve been super busy with work and other stuff in my life so I haven’t had the time energy or motivation to really draw all that much, but with things settling down a bit I decided to stretch my drawing muscles and dive back in

And who better to do that with than sun and Moon? The most drawable boys ever

Very self indulgent but very much needed with the chaos in my life lately

It feels good to be back

got him off-balance!

#my art #ds9 #star trek deep space nine #julian bashir #elim garak #garashir #watercolor #image desc in alt text #i normally post on mondays but. today im breaking my pattern! getting a little silly. getting a little wild. garashir jumpscare #“tumblr user chitinleg garak would neot easily let himself be swooped off his feet into a hug like that” yes i know BUT!#look at his expression. look at how his arms r pinned. he didnt let this happen LMAO julian just surprised him. grabby huggy human behavior #if you look really closely you can see the tiniest frown in the world on Garak's face. because he's like “EEP !”#cant see bashirs face at all in this only his body but i think we can all imagine that whatevers going thru his head. he needs this hug bad #ALSO. for anyone wondering what the fucked up shadow is that starts at the juncture of the teal sleeve-cap where its set into the armhole #the jumpsuits have a bit of a fold of extra fabric (called an Action Pleat) there which allows for a little more maneuverability of the bod #AND creates a really sleek and flat back panel #because you can see the fabric twists along the side arent grabbing the flat back fabric theyre grabbing the fabric folded beneath it #often times i think about drawing out a dissection of kiras first uniform and this voy era one for other artists to use. bc god knows #i struggled at first to find full body references #they like to shoot ds9 very close to peoples heads. and the camera is so blurry. they smeared butter on that thing. god bless

charles and erik with each other: oh dear, oh dear. gorgeous 🥺👐 charles and erik with the villain of the week/the x-men: K1LL YOURSELF 🔥🔥🔥

X-Men: First Class (2011) | X-Men Apocalypse (2016)

#charles is soo insane for looking at a god in the face and telling him to fuck off bc he was hurting his best friend. most normal guy.#cherik #mine*#x-men #xmenedit #parallelsedit #filmedit #charles xavier #erik lehnsherr #otp: i want you by my side #god charles' entire demeanor towards apocalypse in xma has always been SOO funny to me. he literally looks ANNOYED every time #apocalypse speaks in the movie. he doesn't even look intimidated or worried that he's trying to possess CHARLES'S BODY or anything #mind you charles wrote his thesis about mutation and here he has THE FIRST MUTANT ever in front of him. who's also a god threatening #to destroy the world. and charles' only reaction is:#'whatever. MOVE OUT OF THE WAY LOSER i CANNOT see erik from where you are standing and i'm worried about him'#and i do think it's very sweet that after this raven tells erik he has to fight for what he has left - and he thinks about charles #(the man that stood on the balcony all those years ago and that cared enough about him to tell him there is more to him #and the same man that STILL CARES ENOUGH to look at A GOD in the face and telling him to go fuck off and die and stop manipulating erik)#charles loves him so much you don't get it........... i'm foaming at the mouth i'm so normal about them

something about percy nearly dying at luke's hand at the end of tlt ruffles my bones. because imagine feeling like a burden to anyone who dared to care for you. imagine blaming yourself for the death of your mother. imagine grieving in black and white amid a world of color. and then an older brother sees you for all of your sorrow and pain. your cries for help that go unanswered. your longing for a reason to breathe again. and becoming someone you look forward to confiding in when the dust settles. only to discover that their source of light was merely a flame. and the summer air was always meant to burn you alive. truly haunting.

#my first friend. my enemy. maybe that last face i ever see.#<- clock that Hamilton reference; “the world was wide enough”#(the world was not wide enough)#(the path luke went down showed percy where not to go and who not to become)#(the path percy went down showed luke where and who he could have been)#(both were doomed by narrative and save by a dichotomy — two sides of the same coin)#(but i digress)#percy jackon and the olympians #pjo text post #pjo #pjo headcanon #percy jackson #luke castellan #percy and luke #percy and luke angst #the direction the show took with making luke a caring guy who looks after the younger campers like little siblings hurt me in the best way #i need them to do it again next season

au where asriel comes home early

#this came to me in a dream but i dont remember the rest #i just think it would be pretty interesting if asriel comes home since im assuming the game #takes place over a series of days until he comes back from college #i havent kept up with deltarune since chapter 2 came out so i dont remember much abt the theories around asriel #esp what ralsei is supposed to be- im kinda suspicious of ralsei actually since he didnt mention the roaring until #the end of chapter 2. plus we dont know why hes able to go between dark worlds without freezing so im a little sus #plus noelle points out that he looks like asriel so it makes me wonder if ralsei knows abt that or ow he would react to that information #and when noelle points it out she gets cut off because she says ralsei turned to face them as she was thinking that. hmmmm #im also curious if we actually get to see asriel and what he looks like so im looking forward to that #my art #myart #doodles #utdr #deltarune #ralsei #asriel dreemurr #deltarune asriel #kris dreemurr #deltarune kris #deltarune fanart #au #i dont think id actually call it an au its more of a one off but if anyone wants to take this and run go for it ^_^#its probably already been done at some point anyway lol

Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep - A Fragmentary Passage - The World Within

#kingdom hearts 0.2 birth by sleep a fragmentary passage #kh0.2 #the world within #dwarf woodlands #realm of darkness #scenery #my gif #this world is interesting because it's so different from the rest #the sky looks like some sort of dome with triangular screens that project a broken glitchy sky #almost as if it takes place in some kind of data simulation #which i don't think is the case but it adds to the feeling of aqua's experiences here not feeling ''real''#i mean this place hardly even resembles what the original world is supposed to look like #like it changed to match aqua's psyche. forcing her to look at her own reflection and confront her own fears; doubts; guilt; and sadness #actually now that i think about it this feels extremely fitting for this world #it's like when snow white was running through the forest and was so afraid that it made the trees around her look alive and dangerous #except aqua has to wander this broken world and face her dark thoughts that take shape by looking exactly like her #she's constantly running in and out of mirrors into rooms that make no logical sense like the endless staircase and the pillar maze #there are ghostly echoes spoken in her own voice that mock her by saying no one can save her and no one wants to. it's chilling #i can't even say for sure if the phantom aquas are actually physically there or if it's all in her head #similar to how she'd see visions of terra and ven #she's such a tragic character

Even without diving deeper into Pearlrose and their history, there is no way it’s unrequited love. Looks at the way Rose looks at Pearl, she loves her girlfriend and her girlfriend loves her

#LITERALLY LIKE #SURE I COULD GO INTO THE STORY AND HOW ITS NOT UNREQUITED #but just look at rose and her gay ass face #Wdym she didn’t love Pearl???#She’s literally looking at her like she’s the most precious thing in the world #(I’ve been seeing post on unrequited pearlrose and I needed an excuse to share my favorite screenshots)#steven universe #pearl steven universe #pearlrose #rose steven universe
