If you've ever told a person who's had to be bedbound for a period of time that you wish you could "just stay in bed", DO IT.
Stay in bed. For days. But don't get up if someone needs you to, or you get bored, or you get antsy. Don't do anything other than rest. Just lie in your bed, whether you need to get stuff done around the house or socialize or anything else "productive". You'll have to cancel on people, you'll disappoint them, they won't understand.
And if you're thinking, "well, i CAN'T just be in bed. There's stuff that has to be done - I have plans", maybe ask yourself why you assumed a disabled person doesn't have plans or things to do or desires.

Some things about Allan:
He’s the only one who reacts to the narrator
He’s the only doll (besides the Weird House) who isn’t swayed in some way by Ken’s takeover
He also declares himself as “Ken's buddy" (making canon his official box description) which makes his inability to be swayed more interesting
He has bendable legs (probably the only reason he tries to jump the fence instead of going around like everyone else)
He easily decked a half-dozen construction Kens and could probably singlehandedly win the Ken fight
He seems to know more about the real world than most Barbies
He knows what NSYNC is
He knows about other Allan copies living in the real world (I’m trying to figure out if he made this up to convince the humans he can live in the real world, but even if he did, how does he know what NSYNC is???)
There are no other Allan models

Nell Tiger Free credits the performance of Isabelle Adjani in Andrzej Żuławski's Possession as inspiration for her physical acting in The First Omen [2024].
We didn’t have a choreographer, we didn’t have any rehearsal—we didn’t actually know what the fuck was going to happen. Nobody really know, most of all me! All I had was this reference from this one movie, [Andrzej Żuławski 1981 horror classic] Possession. I watched that clip. It was maybe two minutes long. It was somewhere in Northern Italy, and honestly—I wish I had a more interesting answer—but I truly just did it and hoped for the best!
We had two takes. It was weird, this feminist rage took over me. We spend so much time being told to look pretty, perfect, beautiful, put-together, attractive. To be asked to do the exact opposite, to be as free with your body as you possibly can… I mean, I was barking, at one point! All the rage in my body came out. Funnily enough, the only people that walked off set were the men. Scaring grown men has become a bit of kink of mine. [Laughs.]

I love Brennan being shocked at Siobhan translating elvish as if she hasn't translated Latin on this show without blinking. Come on, man.
