Broadway Divas Tournament: Round 1C

Two-time Tony-winning dancer-extraordinaire Bebe Neuwirth (1958) is best known for her winning role as Velma Kelly in Chicago (1996) alongside her beloved Annie Reinking. After playing Velma off-and-on for some years, she then took on Roxie, and later Matron "Mama" Morton. Bebe has also won for Sweet Charity (1986), and is a two-time Emmy winner for, of course, Lilith in Cheers. Other credits include Here Lies Jenny (2004), Fosse (2001), and Cabaret (2024), opening next month. In addition to her beloved stage, Bebe is a devoted cat-lover, and activist. She founded the Dancers' Resource program to provide support for injured and/or aging dancers.

Stalwart theatre veteran Laurie Metcalf (1955) is also a two-time Tony winner and four-time Emmy winner. Her consecutive Tony wins for A Doll's House, Part 2 (2017) and Three Tall Women (2018) places her on an elite list of just six other performers (including fellow Diva Judith Light). She has also appeared in Misery (2015), Hillary and Clinton (2019), and Grey House (2023), an experimental horror play that ultimately flopped. (And I have opinions on that.)

PROPAGANDA AND MEDIA UNDER CUT: ALL POLLS HERE

youtube

"Let me be abundantly clear. Bebe Neuwirth is my ultimate Diva. It may be stiff competition, but she wins the bracket of my heart every time. I would follow this woman to the end of the earth and back. I love everything about her from her cats, to her giggle, to her exquisite grey hair. I so admire any woman who chooses to age gracefully and without resentment, and Bebe's really settled into this adorable cozy old cat lady life. Back in the day, it was all stiletto heels and tight little black dresses and yes, that was very sexy. But now she's enjoying the comforts of flat sturdy boots, massive sweaters with cute little cats on them, glasses on chains, and divine grey hair. Gorgeous, yes. Talented, fuck yes. This woman has music in her bones and not even three hip surgeries can steal it away. I love her."

"Oh, Bebe Neuwirth? Love of my life, champion of my soul? Her legs are simply to die for. Not convinced? Search up When Velma Takes the Stand on YouTube and feast your eyes. You’ll be watching clips of her entire Broadway career next, trust me. She is truly a powerhouse of a woman, and one of Bob Fosse’s greatest interpreters." Propaganda submitted by anon "V"

"The pandemic robbed us of many things, but for our purposes here, the greatest loss to theatre was the revival of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf starring Laurie Metcalf. During the dinner scene, so I'm told by the gays on twitter, she came out in a sheer white blouse and black bra, and I am devastated we didn't get her unhinged Martha. She would have done Uta Hagen and Elaine Stritch proud."

Bonus poll in the tags/comments: Tell me who you think wins in a fight? Lilith from Cheers/Frasier, or Jackie from Rosanne. If you're too young to know what I'm talking about, what are you doing here?

#broadwaydivastournament #broadway divas #broadway #theatre #tournament poll #bebe neuwirth #laurie metcalf #round 1c #this poll is designed to hurt everyone old enough to have watched 80s/90s sitcoms #funnily enough both characters were heavily queercoded so i think they should just date each other wouldn't that be fun? (or disastrous)

French TV show recommendations :

L' Art du Crime (2017- en production) : -> A policeman teams up with an art expert to investigate art related crimes. Each episode is about a specific artist. The policeman knows nothing about art and the art expert (who works in the Louvre) often imagines herself having conversation with famous (dead) artists. One of my favorite shows ! If you like dark/light academia you might like this show ! ✅ : Art History, casual everyday French, ART HISTORY ! (Bonus point : The main actor) ❌ : The episodes are very long !

Fais pas ci, fais pas ça (2007-2020) -> If you want to have a good idea of what French everyday life is like, this is the TV show for you ! The show follows the lives of two completely different French families. The show started like Modern Family with the characters speaking to the camera before becoming a more "regular" show. ✅: Casual everyday French, really good insight on French culture, really funny, you see all the characters grow and evolve, the theme song is fantastic. (You also get to see the evolution of France between 2007 and 2020 which is interesting) ❌ : Nothing extraordinary is really happening, you get an idea of French life, so it might be a bit boring.

Kaamelott (2005) : -> "Based on the Arthurian legends, it followed the daily lives of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table in Camelot." This is a comedic show, I feel like French people either HATE or ADORE this show, there is no in between. One of my favorite shows ! ✅ : Hilarious + knowing this show will make you sound extremely cultured to French people. ❌ : Not only do you need a good French level for this one (a lot of Knight related vocabulary I guess) but also some ...French humor ? I don't know if foreigners might like this one ...

Bref. (2011) : -> Web-serie, the episodes are super short. During each episode the narrator, a Parisian guy tells you about specific events in his life. The way it's shot is really interesting. ✅ : Casual French + slang, very short episodes ❌ : The main character is, in my opinion, kind of annoying

Le Visiteur du Futur (2009) : -> A man coming from the Futur, trying to save the world from terrible things, classic right ? Well, his way of saving the world involves stuff like "stopping Clément from buying a sandwich at the bakery because he's going to fall in love with the Baker's daughter, and live a happy life and have a child BUT the child is going to join a far right extremist movement and become the new face of the neonazi movement and cause WW3 and..." This show was first made with the lowest quality imaginable, the makeup is NASTY, but the plot...the plot is fantastic. ✅ : Casual French + slang , you get to see the quality of the show increase ❌: The quality of the set is questionnable in the beginning and the humour is a bit ..."pipi caca" as we say in French.

Very Bad Blagues (2011) : -> Web-serie, sketches and parodies of French shows, (or French people) ✅ : Some episodes are hilarious, (some are maybe a bit cringy) ❌: Some parodies might be a bit hard to get for foreigners as you might not know the original shows or characters.

Bloqués (2015) : -> Web-serie, super short episodes. Two friends and a couch, each episode is about a different subject like "Si j'étais riche" (If I was rich) ✅ : Casual French + a lot of slang ❌: They make a lot of references to popular French culture - But on the bright side, if you look up every cultural references that they make you might be able to get a Master in French popular culture (I personnaly get only a third of their references).

L'Effondrement (2019) : -> During each episode you get to see a family or group of people trying to survive after the collapse of the society. No electricity, little to no petrol, shortage of food... ✅ : Casual French + Really interesting ! ❌: A bit "anxiogène" as we say in French (anxiety-provoking) because ...well... it could happenned exactly as it's portrayed in the show.

La Flamme (2020) : -> a parody of the Bachelor ✅ : Casual French + slang , the main character is played by Jonathan Cohen who is hilarous ❌: Warning : French humour

Family Business (2019) : -> "The plot revolves around a failed entrepreneur, Joseph, who finds out that cannabis is about to be legalized in France. He consequently decides to change the family kosher butcher shop into the first marijuana coffeeshop in France" ✅ : Casual French + a lot of slang , extremely funny , Jonathan Cohen again ❌: Warning : French humour

BONUS : La Demoiselle d'Avignon (1972) -> Koba, from Kurland meets, François Fonsalette, a French diplomat. They fall in love in France but Koba has to go back to her country. Missing Koba, François manages to get a job as ambassador in Kurland and Koba, missing François, manages to find a job as an AuPair in France... ✅ : Formal French ( French from the 70 sounds sooooo nice), really cute story + you get to see France in the 70s ❌: Nobody speaks French like this anymore, (unfortunately)

(Some of thoses shows are on Youtube in France, but I don't know if the videos are visible outside the country) (feel free to ask me for links)

Your Archer of Infamy (Priest x You) Series

Chapter 1

The windscreen wipers were frantically leaping left to right fighting off the rain that was lashing against your windshield screen. Twelve years of driving and you’re a hundred percent sure this was the worst weather you’d ever driven in, not to mention you felt the pressures of being even more cautious than usual as Rhea was in the car with you. You and Rhea had been friends since 2017 when Rhea joined the company. You were older than her by three years and as soon as you were introduced to each other your personalities clicked. That’s why you made such a great tag team, best friends in the ring, best friends out the ring. You and Rhea tried to drown the sound out of the rain with your singing.

“Out the curtain, lights go up, I'm home..”

“WHOA!” Both you and Rhea belted out Downstrait’s ‘Kingdom’, Cody Rhodes’ entrance song. Your phone chimed, it was a photo message from Damian. As you were driving, Rhea opened it up for you, the photo was of Damian, Finn and Dom waiting in the hotel.

“When are you two going to stop messing about and just do it?” Rhea blurted out, questioning the chemistry that lingered between you and Damian.

“Straight to the point as ever Rhea” Your exhale turning to laughter.

“We’re all just waiting for it to happen.”

“So am I” Your honesty had Rhea in stitches. She turned the music down that was on full blast to answer a video call she was receiving.

“Who is it?” You asked, wanting to look over but you knew you had to keep your eyes on the road. A chorus of ‘Hi’s’ told you it was Balor, Dom and Priest.

“ETA?” Balor asked, Rhea looked over at your phone’s navigation app.

“Two minutes, we’re just round the corner.” Rhea replied.

“Has she crashed yet?” Dom liked to pick on you, he was like a little brother to you. You constantly had playful back and forth spats with each other.

“Fuck you Dom” keeping your eyes on the road you gave him the middle finger which Rhea pointed the camera at so Dom could see. As Rhea hung up you pulled into the parking lot of the hotel, you both looked at each other and nodded as if you knew what each other was thinking. You both threw open the car doors, slamming them shut. Both of you hastily ran to the boot and grabbed whatever bags there were in an attempt to get as little wet as possible from the rain. Heads down to avoid the rain slapping into your faces as the heavy wind pushed it in your direction you both legged it over to the entrance, dropping the bags as soon as you were in the clear from the rain.

“That’s disgusting” You turned to Rhea gesturing to the rain.

“You got us here safely though” Rhea emphasised the word ‘safely’ loudly in an attempt to grab Dom’s attention as the three of them sat on comfortable leather chairs, their backs to the pair of you. They were waiting for you and Rhea to check in and change so you could all head to the gym together.

You and Rhea headed over to the front desk, as Rhea checked in Grayson Waller had approached you. He’d been trying for a while now, vying for your attention and you wondered how long he would keep up with it. You raised your eyebrows at him as if to question what he wanted, to which he just responded with a smirk, licking his lower lip and continuing to chew his gum.

From afar, Priest watched the interaction. He wasn’t a fan of it, his knuckles were turning white from the hard grip he had on the arm of the chair. He knew you were well liked and often the desires of many lads in the locker room when the topic of conversation was the female roster. He couldn’t blame them though. You were genuinely one of the sweetest girls but for everyone else the talk was superficial, it was always your looks, to him he cared more about how you reflected the same rockstar lifestyle he lived. Thankful for all your opportunities. Trying to be the best version of yourself. Being happy. The look was just a bonus in the neatly wrapped up package. Balor and Dom noticed where Priest’s attention was currently drawn too, Waller rubbing his hand up and down your arm.

“Tell her bro!” Dom yelled into a whisper. Within an instant Dom’s attention was on Balor and Dom.

“Nah. I’m eleven years older than her, I’ll just be holding her back” Priest slumped back in his chair trying not to look over.

“Sounds like some bullshit excuse to me” Balor coughed in between each word.

As Waller touched your arm you looked at it, as you did you tried to steal a glance over at Priest using your peripheral vision, you were hoping he was looking in your direction and to your pleasure he was. You adored Priest, you wanted him badly. He always gave you signals like touches and comments that told you it was reciprocated but he never acted up on it. You knew it was an ignorant thing to be doing but you tried to use the attention from other guys to get some sort of reaction out of him.

“Can’t wait to see you in action tonight.” Waller’s attempt to flirt with you was cringeworthy but you smiled to play along.

“Thanks…”

“We can take the action back to my room later if you wanted?”

Internally you were gagging and trying not to let your face screw up into a ball in reaction to the cringe comments leaving his mouth. Overhearing the comments Rhea stepped in trying to save you from any more painful Waller interaction.

“Beat it Waller” Rhea rolled her eyes.

“Charming as always Rhea” Waller brought his hand up to his chest as if her words wounded him.

“I’m serious, we’ve got better things to do Grayson” Rhea turned you around so your back was to Waller and although you were finding it hilarious because of Rhea’s bluntness you mouthed ‘thank you’ to her.

“Check-in” She whispered in your ear before grabbing her bags and walking away to the boys.

“Think about my offer, yeah?” Waller said as he backed away.

You breathed deeply to regain your composure.

“Hi, I’d like to check in please?”

“Welcome, absolutely, what is the name on the reference?”

You gave the lady behind the counter your name and booking reference, her lips rolled thinly and her eyebrows furrowed as if she was confused. You observed her closely as she kept tapping and scrolling. She’d occasionally look up with apprehension on her face, as she looked at your smile.

“I’m sorry Miss, it seems there has been a mix up with your booking. The room has been double booked.”

“How does that even happen?” You huffed in disbelief.

“I’m not sure…” The lady was dumbfounded, as she looked up at you with regret. You weren’t one to yell, it wasn't her fault.

“Any more rooms available?” You questioned hopefully.

The lady shook her head and pursed her lips outwards “ I’m afraid not, we’re fully booked because of the show. Neighbouring hotels are fully booked too. I could explain your situation to the current occupants and ask if they would mind vacating the room offering them a free stay another time?.”

You shook your head smiling kindly at the lady.

“That won't be necessary. Could you just make sure you refund me the room please?” You could tell the lady really appreciated your level of calmness, you were almost certain she was used to being yelled at in situations like this.

“Of course, miss. Once again our apologies for this mix up and thank you for being so kind about it”

Turning your back to the counter, you huffed and rubbed your eyes in frustration before making your way over to the group.

“What’s with the long face?” Dom asked.

“ I don’t have a room, they gave my room to someone else” You flopped over the arms of the chair Damian was sitting on so you were laid across him, letting your body go limp.

“Shit. I’ve got Buddy staying tonight…” Rhea replied implying she couldn’t offer you space as her boyfriend would need the room. You pulled yourself up like a sit up then dropped yourself onto the lap of Damian.

“It’s fine, I'll sleep out here. We only ever get five hours of sleep on the road anyway. Zero hours tonight won't hurt. Beside its comfortable”

“It’s only comfortable because you’re sitting on Damian” Dom pointed at the pair of you, You turned to look at Priest who was smirking at you which in turn made the corners of your lips curl upwards. Your eyes darted quickly between his dark eyes and lips, likewise he copied you. You could both sense the tension between you as you’d both forgotten where you were as silence filled the air.

“I aint complaining” Priest broke first and spoke up, his hands in the air. You refocused, turning back to face everyone else.

“Thanks for stating the obvious Dom” your sarcasm causing everyone to snicker. Priest put one arm round the back of you to lean on your waist.

“Take my bed, I can take the floor for a night” Priest said. You turned to look at Priest, you couldn’t help but look at him lovingly.

“I can’t do that”

“I’m not letting you sleep out here on your own” Damian’s other hand gravitated to your leg, settling in between your thighs.

“This makes me sick” Dom joked as you looked down at the hand. Damian followed your gaze and instantly removed his hand and pushed up to make you both stand up.

“C’mon let's go.” Priest ignored you as he walked past as if to pretend he didn’t just have you sat on him, his hand grazing your inner thigh..

“Meet here in ten yeah?” Rhea asked and everyone nodded in agreement. You followed behind Damian up to his room.

The day had dashed by, you were now alone with Priest in the hotel room. You opened the bathroom door to see him in his boxers and you in the only bedtime clothes you had, your lingerie, you weren’t expecting having to share a room with anyone okay! Sometimes pyjamas aren’t needed! You sighed quietly, trying to maintain your composure seeing Damian this way.

“I’m sorry I dont have pyjamas otherwise I’d wear them” You became nervous as you walked towards Priest, you weren’t sure if you were nervous because you were suddenly overcome with anxiety with how you looked or if it was because Priest made you nervously giddy.

“No need to apologise

“Like what you see?” Priest’s low gruff voice asked you. Priest was astounded by you, only asking you that question because he liked what he saw. You rolled your eyes in amusement.

“It’s alright I suppose” You shrugged your shoulders

You watched as Priest laid down on the floor and grabbed the blanket off the bed, his actions confusing you.

“You’re not actually sleeping there are you?” Priest folded his arms behind his head to lean on, his muscles tensing making your self control even weaker as he just gazed up at you.

“I dunno? Am I?” Reverse psychology… good one you thought. You dropped on to the bed telling Damian to get in. You didn’t need to tell him twice and he was up onto the bed and settled next to you. You turned over to face him, your faces inches apart, all Priest wanted to do was pull you into him and on top of him, his hands grabbing at your ass as you kissed intensely over and over again, him manoeuvring your body to grind against him.

“What do you think of Waller?” His thoughts shattered instantly. Why were you asking him about Waller? Not wanting to let you know he was confused or disappointed, he shrugged his shoulders.

“Seems fine” Damian’s reply was blunt.

“I think he wants to go on a date..”

“Enjoy it” Damian smiled and quickly turned over like he was giving you the cold shoulder. He was… he didn’t want to hear about your feelings towards Waller, not that you actually had any. Your reasoning in bringing Waller up had the intention of making Damian jealous and maybe get him to admit his feeling so you could too but his responses had you feeling that your desired outcome had failed.

During the night Damian was woken by your slow movement of turning over and placing your arm over his midsection, curling up to him and resting your forehead on his back. He didn’t want to wake you so he let you cuddle up to him. Was he really going to let someone like Waller get to you before he could?

IRS to go after executives who use business jets for personal travel in new round of audits

Private jets sit parked at Scottsdale Airport Jan. 27, 2015, in Scottsdale, Ariz. IRS leadership said

FATIMA HUSSEIN Feb 21, 2024

WASHINGTON (AP) — First, there were trackers on Taylor Swift and other celebrities’ private jet usage. Now, there will be more scrutiny on executives’ personal use of business aircraft who write it off as a tax expense.

IRS leadership said Wednesday that the agency will start conducting dozens of audits on businesses’ private jets and how they are used personally by executives and written off as a tax deduction — as part of the agency’s ongoing mission of going after high-wealth tax cheats who game the tax system at the expense of American taxpayers.

The audits will focus on aircraft used by large corporations and high-income taxpayers and whether the tax purpose of the jet use is being properly allocated, the IRS says.

“At this time of year, when millions of hardworking taxpayers are working on their taxes, we want them to feel confident that everyone is playing by the same rules,” IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel said on a call with reporters to preview the announcement. Tax season began Jan. 29.

“These aircraft audits will help ensure high-income groups aren’t flying under the radar with their tax responsibilities,” he said.

There are more than 10,000 corporate jets in the US., according to the IRS, valued at tens of millions of dollars and many can be fully deducted.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, passed during the Trump administration, allowed for 100% bonus depreciation and expensing of private jets — which allowed taxpayers to write off the cost of aircraft purchased and put into service between September 2017 and January 2023.

Werfel said the federal tax collector will use resources from Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act to more closely examine private jet usage — which has not been closely scrutinized during the past decade as funding fell sharply in the last decade.

“Our audit rates have been anemic,” he said on the call. An April 2023 IRS report on tax audit data states that “continued resource constraints have limited the agency’s ability to address high-end noncompliance” stating that in tax year 2018, audit rates for people making more than $10 million were 9.2%, down from 13.6% in 2012. And in the same time period, overall corporate audit rates fell from 1.3% to .6%.

Mike Kaercher, senior attorney advisor at the Tax Law Center at NYU said in a statement that the IRS should also revisit how it values personal use of corporate aircraft, beyond just how flights are reported.

“The current rules allow these flights to be significantly undervalued, enabling wealthy filers to pay much less in taxes than fair market value would dictate, and it’s within the IRS’ authority to revise these rules,” Kaercher said.

Werfel said audits related to aircraft usage could increase in the future depending on the results of the initial audits and as the IRS continues hiring more examiners.

“To be clear, that doesn’t mean everyone in a high-income category partnership or corporation is evading or avoiding their tax responsibility,” Werfel said. “But it does mean that there’s more work to do for the IRS to make sure people are paying what they owe.”"

What has been your favorite Halloween set they've done so far?

I don't remember all of them so I'll take this time to rank each of them... p sure somebody's done this before or maybe it was a gifset. anyway

2013: Bonus points for the one and only time they wore costumes, it's cute in how simple and stripped back it is (they did good with what they had) but they've done better since then. 3/10

2014: I'm sorry no offense to the Milwaukee Brumder Mansion but this looks exactly like what it is, which is a boring old "haunted house" decorated with very drab and depressing things that are supposed to give you a slight uncanny feeling and that's it. It's not fun at all 1/10

2015: This is like a slightly lighting-wise improved version of the first one but there's no costumes so it loses a point because that was the only thing that made the former version interesting. 2/10

2016: ig the theme is cute, hanging out in a halloween-decorated-backyard i presume but ultimately its ugly it looks like somehow christmas came before halloween and they tacked on some pumpkins on the fence. They should get rid of those camping chairs already 3/10

2017: I'd like a redo of this dungeon ngl with more stuff in the bg this is another one of those v flat ones that aren't interesting 2/10

2018: nice lighting on them for this one, the concept of sitting around in a pumpkin-patch-esque field with hay bales and a scarecrow is cute. Maybe my judgement is being skewed by the fact that I know this one was where they got drunk. 4/10

2019: A very gaudy beautiful colorful set, more on the fantastical side rather than a specific location like the others so far, the lighting around them is gorgeous, it's not too dark and you can see both them and the decorations in distinct ways 10/10

2020: If they weren't going to put on clothes that didn't make them blend in with the trees and tombstones in the background they should've lit themselves in a way that made them stand out among the foreground (cauldron, floor) and the trees right behind them being pitch-black. Hate it 3/10

2021: Naw....... didn't like this one. It gets a bonus point for pretty dolly shots but its a bit too flat for me (everything is bathed in purple) in a not fun way. 4/10

2022: ugly. I don't feel much like I'm in a cool cave. Why did they make that one last cave layer that round somehow it's bothering me sm. Bonus points for the big spider 3/10

So there you go anon the answer was the 2019 one

#blortchmod #jay #mike #rich #tim #jack #josh #jessi #like always when rlm do good they do Good and otherwise they're very flat and drab

Young Sheldon: The Complete Series

All 141 Episodes From The #1 Hit Comedy Series Will Be Available To Purchase On DVD September 24, 2024

All Seasons Are Available To Own On Digital Today

BURBANK, CA (May 17, 2024) – Following an epic two-episode series finale on CBS, fans can now relive the critically acclaimed #1 comedy series with Young Sheldon: The Complete Series.

Young Sheldon: The Complete Series and Young Sheldon: The Complete Seventh Season are also available now to purchase Digitally from Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, YouTube, Fandango at Home, and more.

From creators and executive producers Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro, Young Sheldon centers on Sheldon Cooper, a once-in-a-generation mind capable of advanced mathematics and science, which isn’t always helpful in a land where church and football are king. And while the vulnerable, gifted, and somewhat naïve Sheldon deals with the world, his very normal family must find a way to deal with him. For 12 years on The Big Bang Theory, audiences came to know the iconic, eccentric, and extraordinary Sheldon Cooper. This single-camera, half-hour comedy takes viewers through his childhood, as he embarks on his innocent, awkward, and hopeful journey toward the man he will become.

The series stars Iain Armitage, Zoe Perry, Lance Barber, Annie Potts, Montana Jordan, Raegan Revord, Emily Osment, and Jim Parsons (as the voice of Sheldon). Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro, Steve Holland, Jim Parsons, Todd Spiewak and Nick Bakay serve as executive producers. Young Sheldon is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Young Sheldon has been a consistent ratings winner. It premiered as the #1 new comedy of the 2017-2018 television season and became the #1 comedy in the 2019-2020 season after The Big Bang Theory completed its run. Young Sheldon returned for its seventh and final season on Feb. 15 and remains television’s #1 comedy.

Age of the TMNT at the end of their series (theory)

One day while I was watching the 1987 TMNT episode where they travel to the future (Season 5 Episode 2) I noticed something. When Donatello is taking everyone back to the present he says “Next stop, the year 1991″ and this got me thinking. How old would the TMNT be at the end of their respective series? While I was thinking I remembered another detail; TMNT 2003′s season Fast Forward takes place 100 years into the future. In the intro you can see the year 2105 being used. That would mean the year where they got transported would be 2005. Quickly whipping out my calculator and final brain cell this is what I found.

(Quick disclaimer. I haven’t watched 87, 03, and 12 in a while/fully. I may miss in-universe timing details. I also have not fully seen the air dates. Information I will be missing is certain 87 seasons, Fast Forward, Back to the Sewers, part of Turtles Forever).

How old are the 1987 TMNT?

The wiki lists the turtles’ birth year as 1972. This would make them 15 at the start of the series. As stated above, Donatello states they are in the year 1991. This is 4 years after 1987. This would make the turtles 19 years old. TMNT 1987 ends in the year 1996 which is 5 years after 1991. 19 + 5 = 24. The turtles would be 24 years old at the end of their series.

TL;DR 1996 - 1972 = 24

How old are the 2003 TMNT?

The turtles are listed to be born in 1987, this would make them 16 at the start of the series. The 6th season, Fast Forward (FF), starts with the turtles and Splinter being transported 100 years into the future. The year is 2105 meaning the turtles would’ve been in the year 2005 before being transported. This would be 2 years after 2003 thus making them 18 at the time. The year TMNT 2003 completed its run was in the year 2009. A whole 4 years after FF. 18 + 4 = 22. The turtles would be 22 at the end of their series.

TL;DR 2009 - 1987 = 22

How old are the 2012 TMNT?

We all know the 2012 TMNT are 15, it was revealed to us in the first episode. What most of us don’t know is that their birth year/mutation year is 1997 (tmnt wiki). Their aging has been tricky as they are shown/implied to constantly be 15, which is bullshit in my opinion. So for this section, I say fuck canon and hello logic. The show ended its run in 2017, 5 years after 2012. 15 + 5 = 20. The turtles would 20 years old at the end of their series. Side note, this would make Raph a legal DILF. TL;DR 2017 - 1997 = 20

How old are the 2018 TMNT (aka Rise TMNT)

Now, there is not much to do especially since Rise is not over (please don’t let it be true) but I will do what I can. Raphael is 15 at the start of ROTTMNT, Leonardo and Donatello are 14, and Michelangelo is 13. According to the TMNT wiki, their birth years are 2003, 2004, and 2005. The Lair Games take place in 2019. This would make their ages 16, 15, and 14. The turtles are listed on the wiki to be 17, 16, and 15 in the movie. This would mean the Krang invasion would take place in 2020 (I am well aware this is not canon but if you want to have fun with the chaotic year known as 2020 then go ahead). There is not much I can say here as the timeline is messy due to cancellation and other details.

Bonus round!

April O’neil is said to be 28 in season 3 of TMNT 1987. Season 3 began airing in 1989. 2 years apart. 28 - 2 = 25. April is 25 at the start. This would also make her birth year 1962. 1996 - 1962 = 34. She is 34 at the end of the series.

The wiki states 2003 April to be 1980. 2003 - 1980 = 23. She is 23 at the start of the series. 2009 - 1980 = 29. She is 29 when the series ends.

2012 April’s birth year is 1996. She is one year older than the turtles making her 16. 2017 - 1996 = 21 OR 20 + 1 = 21. This would make her legally able to drink (she probably teases them about it too). Rise April birth year is 2002, making her 16. In “Warren & Hypno, Sitting in a Tree” she has her birthday and turns 17 years old. In the ROTTMNT movie she is 18.

What to do with this information?

You can use the information I gathered for fanfiction. You could write stories about them coming of age, becoming adults, and reflecting on their youth and how it was basically stripped from them. There are many things you can use with this information. However, I would advise against using these as a way to create NSFW or crush on them as it is speculation and I would rather not fight anons and other people rn. I cannot stop you but I will be upset if people start fighting me for my shower thought rambling.

Closing note

I hope you all enjoyed my mad rambling disguised as something professional. This is the only time I have gone out of my way to do maths and it was fun. I hope whoever comes across this can use it for some good angst. There is no need to credit me for any of this I just did it for fun and want people to have fun with this too. If anyone wants to reblog this to add on with in-universe details be my guest :> or if you want to include the comics and movies I would greatly appreciate that. Anyway, bye.

song asks: 15, 16 and 23!

Thank you so much for sending this ask! 😁

Song Asks!

15: A Song I Relate To

Had to think about this one for a bit, but I think my answer's gotta be either Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson (my Childhood Favorite Song) or this is me trying (long pond version) by Taylor Swift. The Duality of Man or whatever 😅

16: A Song that makes me Nostalgic

I'm trying not to reuse answers from similar questions in other Music Ask Games, but I don't think I've ever actually used Stressed Out by Twenty Øne Piløts before??? This is the song I consider to be my Teen/College Favorite Song, so it already makes me a little nostalgic for that era of my life (not that I would EVER go back. I mean. My favorite song from that time is literally called Stressed Out, y'all can read between the lines on that one); but also, the song itself talks about missing childhood in a way that makes me nostalgic for my own childhood, so like. Double whammy here 🥺🥺.

23: A Song that has Interesting Sounds™ that tickle my brain right

Oh, this was a HARD question to answer lemme tell ya. I had to kind of dig through a few different playlists to find songs I thought might be contenders for Good Sound Texture (versus songs with Bad Sound Texture, which I could name 2 of off the top of my head 😔). I think my best answers are:

August 21, 2017: Total Solar Eclipse, by Sleeping At Last (or basically anything from his Astronomy series tbh, they're the perfect combo of instrumentals, backing vocals and electronica sounds 😍🥰)

The Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses theme, specifically the Annapantsu cover (harp + vocals = 😍😍😍)

Zelda's Lullaby as covered by the Celestial Aeon Project (plucked strings from a guitar and potentially some kind of lure/zither over bells and other percussion instruments, then adding a flute for a second round??? AND vocals???? Gorgeous 10/10 no notes)

And finally, the Entire Wish You Were Here album by Pink Floyd. Yes, the whole thing, cause I couldn't decide between Shine One You Crazy Diamond (parts 1-5), Welcome to the Machine, Wish You Were Here, Have a Cigar, or other parts 6-9 of Crazy Diamond. So. All of it. This album is actually my favorite Pink Floyd album for a reason and apparently that reason is just Oops All Good Sound Texture.

Oh, and also a special Bonus Shout Out to Marianas Trench and their specific brand of Backing Vocals Doing Sick Chord Slides, now THOSE are Peak Sound Texture™

#ask games #ask game #ask meme #kelly clarkson #taylor swift #twenty one pilots #sleeping at last #annapantsu #celestial aeon project #pink floyd #marianas trench #this is me trying long pond version #Zelda's lullaby #stressed out #wish you were here #hope at least one of these recs interests someone cause theres a LOT here 😅

ROUND 2 PART 11

Everyday Mix (Persona Super Live 2017) VS When Mother Was There (Persona 5)

Everyday Mix

When Mother Was There

youtube

Everyday Mix

Not sure if this one counts, but I've got to try submitting it, right? It was in the bonus content of P5R, so it was at least technically In A Game. Anyway, it's beautiful! A great mix of great songs. And the video is awesome as well! I love the opposing stages, giving each performance the chance to stand on its own. And the way the audiences glowsticks change to match the colors associated with each game! All of the singers kick ass. It's just an amazing performance that does a great job of showing off what makes the music in this series so damn good!

When Mother Was There

Honestly i'm expecting there to be huge bias towards the vocal songs so just making sure everyone remembers how good futaba's palace theme is

Can you do a headcannon about pat from postman pat please

Patrick Clifton, also known as "Postman Pat", is a main character of British stop motion animated children's television series from September 1981 to March 2017. He is the postman who lives in an English village of Greendale with his wife Sara and their son Julian and their pet black-and-white cat named Jess in the United Kingdom.

He works as a postman for the Royal Mail postal service in the fictional village of Greendale (inspired by the real valley of Longsleddale near Kendal).

He brought Jess with him to accompany him as he delivers the post through the valley of Greendale. Although he initially concentrates on delivering his letters, he nearly always becomes distracted by a concern of one of the villagers, and is always keen to help resolve their problems.

Notable villagers include the postmistress, Mrs. Goggins; farmer couple Alf and Dorothy Thompson; the Reverend Timms; PC Selby, the police constable; Jeff Pringle, the school teacher; Peter Fogg, a farm hand; George Lancaster, a chicken farmer; Miss Hubbard, an upper-class woman; Julia Pottage, who runs Greendale Farm and Ted Glen, the local handyman and inventor.

In the spin-off series, Postman Pat: Special Delivery Service, Pat has been promoted to Head of the SDS and is now called upon to deliver anything. Each episode follows Postman Pat on a Special Delivery mission, from rescuing a runaway cow to delivering a giant ice cube. In his new role, Postman Pat commutes to the nearby town of Pencaster where he collects his special deliveries from the Pencaster Mail Centre. Postman Pat now has a newer fleet of vehicles including a bigger van, gyrocopter, 4x4 Jeep and motorbike, complete with side-car for Jess. He has a new boss, Ben, who tends to give him instructions (whereas he was his own master before the "promotion"). Pat also seems to make more mistakes in his work since moving to SDS, largely because the new format is always based on one delivery, which has to go wrong somehow (thus often because of Pat's errors).

In the 2014 animated comedy film "Postman Pat the Movie", Pat is planning to take his wife, Sara on a late honeymoon to Italy. He tries to afford it through a bonus from his employer, the Special Delivery Service (SDS), but their new boss, Edwin Carbunkle, has cancelled all bonuses. He plans to make SDS more efficient by replacing its human workers with robots, thinking that being friendly is a waste of time.

When Pat gets home and tries to tell Sara about the fact that the honeymoon is cancelled because the new boss has cancelled all bonuses, his son Julian shows him a television talent show, "You're the One", hosted by Simon Cowbell, who states the next auditions are coming to Greendale. Cowbell also confirms that the person who wins the contest will be awarded a holiday to Italy and a recording contract.

Pat decides to take part in the contest and his unexpected singing voice (Ronan Keating) wins the contest. Pat is to sing again in the finale, in a head-to-head contest with the winner of another heat, Josh. His Scottish-accented manager, Wilf, however, is very keen to make sure it is his client who wins at all costs.

The CEO of the SDS, Mr. Brown, and Carbunkle had been watching the contest on television. They say that they would like to use Pat in a publicity campaign including his own television series. Carbunkle also confirms that because Pat will be away participating in the contest, a robot replica of him called the "Patbot 3000" will be taking over his postal duties, along with another robot replica of Jess called the "Jessbot" as well.

After Pat and Jess are gone, the Patbot delivers the rounds like Pat normally does, but it behaves oddly and the people of Greendale are starting to complain about Pat behaving in such a way. Sara and Julian are starting to worry about Pat too. Meanwhile, Ben Taylor (TJ Ramini), the manager at the SDS, is fired by Carbunkle and is convinced that Pat doesn't want him anymore, not realising that Pat is a robot. Meanwhile, Wilf tries his schemes to stop Pat, not realising that the "Pat" going around Greendale is in fact a robot but they all backfire. The more Pat's family and friends become concerned, the more Pat feels guilty about coming on the contest in the first place.

And despite Pat's efforts to tell his wife the truth about why he entered the competition, he fails and starts to become fearful that he might have pushed his family away. It isn't until shortly after Pat's departure for the final competition that Ben and Jess discover that there appears to be more than one Pat and Edwin Carbunkle's true intent is exposed. It turns out that Carbunkle is in fact an evil megalomaniac and is making these robots to try and take over the world. Ben then rushes to tell Sara and Julian the terrible truth about Mr Carbunkle's plan.

Now fully aware of Carbunkle's plan, a desperate Sara informs the whole of Greendale about Carbunkle's true intentions and explaining that deep down, Pat has not changed. They all agree to head to London to support Pat, in an effort to thwart Carbunkle's plan. Meanwhile, Jess, who has stowed away on one of the SDS helicopter replicas that one of the Patbot 3000s used, manages to make his way to where Pat's performance, and he helps Pat escape after he is locked away in a dressing room by a Patbot and Carbunkle, who reveals that Pat's publicity was just to make people like him, so Mr Carbunkle could replace him with Patbots. They are then pursued by the Patbots and the Jessbot but manages to outsmart them all and get inside the theater.

Meanwhile, in the performance, a Patbot performs instead of Pat, unbeknownst to the audience. Wilf arrives, knowing it to be a robot (after defeating a Patbot with a magnet at the sorting officer earlier), uses a magnet to unmask the Patbot. Then, the real Pat interrupts the performance and gives a speech on what's really important and how he forgot to take time for those he really cares about. As Carbunkle releases the first few Patbots to kill off Pat, Simon and Brown, revealing that he has had enough of them hindering his plans, Josh saves them by using Carbunkle's phone to turn off all the Patbots before they can kill Pat, Cowbell and Brown. Little does Pat know that his wife and friends from Greendale arrive in the chaos.

After Brown fires Carbunkle and has him arrested, everything is back to normal. Unaware that Sara is listening, Pat expresses that he is only doing this competition to win the flight tickets for their honeymoon. Sara is suddenly heard calling Pat's name. Once Pat catches sight of Sara, Julian and all the people of Greendale in the audience, it dawns on him that Sara has heard the truth about why he entered the competition and is fully aware of Carbunkle's plan. Now fully aware that Sara has forgiven him. Pat decides to do his act but decides to change it slightly.

In the end, Pat sings Stevie Wonder’s Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours with Brown, Josh, Wilf and the people of Greendale joining in. Sara also takes part in the act. They both win the holiday to Italy but pass the recording contract to Josh, so Wilf is happy too, and all is forgiven.
