feeling that ache deep inside remembering that the characters, books, movies, tv shows and stories i love so much are not real. that i love these characters as real people, with all my heart, but i will never get to know what it feels like to be loved by them, to be with them, because they do not know me.
i am a universe away from them yet somehow, i so deeply feel the absence in my life of people and stories who are not real

As someone who 'works' within the media and has rattled a few cages with my opinions online (though certainly not to the extent Richard and his colleagues did with Oz), I rather enjoyed Hippie Hippie Shake. Cillian Murphy and Sienna Miller shot the film adaptation of it over a decade ago but it has yet to see the light of day - particularly given the increased interest in Cillian and his career following the release of Oppenheimer, I really hope it gets shared with the world sooner rather than later.

Republicans (especially Oz) are saying that Fetterman voted to release a murderer. He did not. Republican voters are so brain dead that they’ll believe anything they hear from a republican without looking into it.
If he voted to release somebody convicted of murder (the only source on this I can find is from right-wing sites) he voted to release somebody who was framed for murder. Not proven to have actually committed one.
Tumblr media
Wilhelm’s last words were literally “Clarence Miller did this to me,” but Miller was like “nah it was this dude” and instead of doing an investigation or ignoring the murderer, the police arrested them both.
I’m more surprised at the fact that they arrested both of them instead of letting the murderer go free.

Happy birthday! Can we get some birthday trivia about you on your birthday?
Sure. I turn 56 today, so here’s fifty-six things you may or may not know about me.
1) I never lost a baby tooth. Every one had to be extracted.
2) I was once a contestant on Trivial Pursuit: The Game Show with Wink Martindale. I answered the most questions correct, but didn’t win.
3) I once had scarlet fever (the thing the boy gets in the Velveteen Rabbit).
4) I’ve been told by doctors I have very weird blood.
5) I self taught myself to juggle.
6) I was a magician when I was a kid with the stage name The Wiz Kid. I mostly performed for kids parties.
7) I was once a freelance greeting card writer. My favorite (that didn’t get printed) showed a jug of maple syrup tipped on its side making a puddle of syrup. In the syrup was a top hat. A hand is pulling a can of green paint with a shamrock out of the hat. You open up the card and it says Sappy Paint Hat Tricks Day. It’s a triple Spoonerism.
8) Sara Gilbert (of “Roseanne” fame) and I once went out for lunch. (It wasn’t a date or anything.)
9) I broke my collarbone doing a prat fall off a stage.
10) I once pet a cheetah. In South Africa. My face from the picture of me doing that was used as my “Making Magic” photo for years.
11) I once made a root beer float for Keanu Reeves. It was at a play I was volunteering for.
12) I once get trapped inside Fred Astaire’s Estate. This factoid is oddly on my Wikipedia page.
13) Starting during the pandemic, my family began fostering animals. So far, we fostered four dogs, six cats, and two Guinea pigs.
14) In college, I wrote and directed two plays, started an improvisation troupe, and a writing workshop.
15) I still have all my wisdom teeth.
16) I have visited every continent except Antarctica for Magic.
17) I once asked Clint Eastwood for directions, not realizing who it was until he started talking. I was lost on the Warner Brothers lot.
18) My first job in Hollywood resulted from me taking part in someone else’s interview. I snuck on the lot, and ended walking into a room where they asked “Are you here for the production assistant interview?”, and I said, “Yes.”
19) I once had a disease the doctors couldn’t identify. They called it Mark’s Disease.
20) I was born in Mississippi. My dad was in the Air Force at the time.
21) I asked out seven woman to my senior prom who all turned me down. I ended up going with a friend who also couldn’t get a date.
22) I took six years of Spanish.
23) Most of my family’s vacations growing up were ski vacations, so I’m a decent skier.
24) I once delivered a pizza to Richard Gere. It was as a production assistant, not a pizza delivery person.
25) I once broke into an actor’s apartment building to deliver a script. It was so late, they were asleep and didn’t hear the buzzing of the door bell.
26) I once drove six hours (three in each direction) to pick up one five-stick package of Blackjack gum as a runner (production assistant).
27) Dennis Miller once thought I was a crazy man. I was sent to get him from the parking lot for a shoot and he thought I was stalking him.
28) I have over two hundred tee-shirts. They are organized by color.
29) I was supposed to pitch to “The Simpsons”, but it got cancelled when I got hired in the “Roseanne” staff.
30) I pitched multiple times to “Star Trek: The Next Generation”, but never sold a script. The closest I got was a pitch about Data malfunctioning.
31) I once ate crocodile. In Australia.
32) I played the Tinman in fifth grade in a production of “The Wizard of the Oz”. I was so hot, my silver make-up had to be reapplied halfway through as I sweated it off.
33) My mother turned down being on “Oprah” to come to my college graduation.
34) My parents are both retired. My dad was a dentist and my mom a psychologist. I used to joke I had a “paradox”.
35) Every birthday since I was 9, I’ve celebrated my birthday with crab legs.
36) Since I was in grade school, every Valentine’s Day, I hand out candy hearts, and every Halloween, I hand out mellowcreme pumpkins (basically pumpkin shaped candy corns).
37) My tee-shirts every week are themed. Some themes are pretty obvious, but they often get tricky. R&D likes figuring out the theme.
38) I got a BS in Communications (no, really) from Boston University’s College of Communications.
39) I collect superhero Minimates (they look Lego-ish). I have somewhere around two thousand. They are displayed in a number of cabinets built by my dad.
40) My podcast was inspired by a talk by Kevin Smith (at San Diego Comic-Con) where he said anyone could make a podcast.
41) I have attended over twenty-five San Diego Comic-Cons.
42) I am related to Lorne Green of “Bonanza” fame.
43) My dad’s family came from Germany and my mom’s from Russia. In Germany, my family’s name was Rosenvasser, but it was changed to Rosewater when they came to the U.S.
44) There are so few Rosewaters in the United States, that if you meet a Rosewater odds are I’m related to them.
45) I have lived in five states (Mississippi, Ohio, Massachusetts, California, and Washington, in that order).
46) I have visited over thirty states for Magic.
47) I once met Jim Henson when I worked on a clip show that Kermit was on. The question I asked him was if Ernie and Bert were named after the characters from “It’s a Wonderful Life”. He said not consciously. Jim Henson is one of my idols and I feel so blessed to have met him. He died a few months later.
48) I met Stan Lee at Hascon. He is another of my idols that I feel so lucky to have met.
49) On “Roseanne”, I worked with Amy Sherman-Palladino (just Amy Sherman back then) and Chuck Lorre. She made “Gilmore Girls” and “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”. He made “Big Bang Theory” and “Two and a Half Men”. Amy was super sweet and we got along well. I don’t think Chuck liked me.
50) I am a super picky eater. For example, except for apples, I don’t eat fruit. I hate bananas with a passion.
51) I have been a game player since very young. My dad loves games and introduced them to me early in life.
52) I get the writing bug from my mom.
53) I used to collect lint in a giant jar. When I got married, Lora made me get rid of it. It was an impressive amount of lint.
54) I have a bad tendency to burn myself a lot. My family loves to make fun of it.
55) I own over fifty flannels. My favorites are from Japan because they are more colorful with their flannels. Normally I wear a large, but in Japanese sizes, I’m an extra large.
56) My favorite number is 254. I chose it when I was little.

Clandestine Meetings (Joel Miller x Reader) Chapter 1
Tumblr media
Next Chapter
Joel Miller x Reader
Joel's life has been filled with darkness and despair. For years it has felt as though his life had been drained of all color. He never dreamed that he would find anything to change that. That is until one day he finds a girl who becomes his rainbow.
Word Count: 1552
Rating M: For later chapter. Right now it's just a meet-cute. Some angst from Joel, but kind of fluffy.
Honestly, I didn't expect to be making this series. I had planned a one-shot around the idea of this reader character. But when I started to write a small background scene, I realized how great of a series this could make. I have ideas of where I would like this to go, and I would love to hear your feedback and ideas, but I am very excited to get this started.
It had been a few months since Joel, Tommy, and Tess had found themselves inside the Boston QZ and Joel felt as if he was going stir-crazy. After years of roaming, it felt weird to be trapped behind walls, and to be trapped with the F.E.D.R.A officers was even worse. But things had changed, Tommy had changed. And Joel could see the wear of the years, and what the years had brought, on Tommy. 
Not only that but Joel needed a change. He still knew that he would do anything to protect his brother, and now Tess. But having done horrible and despicable things to keep them safe, he needed somewhere that wouldn’t require him to destroy his own soul to do that. Plus it had also been years since he slept in an actual bed, even if it was just the shitty mattress that F.E.D.R.A had given them. 
And while the work that F.E.D.R.A required it’s “citizens” to participate in was back breaking, demeaning, and horrific. Some days Joel didn’t mind it. It gave him something to do, distracted his mind, kept his hands busy. Not to mention it gave him many chances to meet knew “clients,” for his and Tess’ business. 
Almost instantly when they had arrived Joel and Tess had started smuggling. It brought in a good income, plus they could trade for some otherwise impossible items from F.E.D.R.A. officiers. Plus Joel liked having some power over F.E.D.R.A officers, it made it easier to get out of scrapes, when his clients knew that if anything happen to him or Tess they would lose their suppliers. 
But as the days, weeks, and months dragged on life seemed to fade into monotony. His life had already lost it’s color and light when he lost Sarah, but now it seemed to descend to a sad, depressing grayscale. 
That was until he saw her. 
He hadn’t even noticed her at first. Joel had been so tuned out to the world around him as he moved the bodies, he didn’t even see as the workers around him began to wander away. He just kept picking the bodies up from the truck, and dropping them in the fire. It was probably one of the worst jobs F.E.D.R.A had, but it paid and not many people chose it, so it meant that there were always slots open. 
Suddenly he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. He turned and his whole world stopped when he saw her. Joel wasn’t what you would call a romantic by any means, and after the shit he had been through, love or anything close to it had never even crossed his mind. But when he saw her, for a moment he felt his heart skip a beat. He felt as though his whole world was Kansas at the beginning of the Wizard of Oz, and this girl was his Oz. She beamed, even with all of the destruction around her, she gave off a feeling of comfort and warmth. 
And there she was, standing around the workers, pouring out jugs of water into small tin cups. He could see beside her was a small wagon filled with even more jugs. He was taken aback by the act of kindness. Immediately his first thought was ‘what could she possibly be benefiting from this.’ Because of course no one in this world could act with genuine kindness their had to be a catch. 
There was something about her though, for however much Joel’s heart ached at the sight of her, Joel’s mind hated her. How dare someone look so perfect, and happy with everything going on in the world. How dare she stir something inside of him that he never wanted to feel. How dare someone like her exist in this cruel and unforgiving world. 
From that moment, Joel swore to himself that he would avoid her at any cost. Any time she came around with her cart of water, or even when she brought around food, he would hide in the shadows, or just walk off the job entirely, not even caring if he didn’t get paid. She made him feel something, something that terrified him, and Joel had vowed a long time ago to never let anything make him feel like that ever again. 
But even with his hiding and running away, that didn’t mean he didn’t steal glances at her every time he had the chance. And the more jobs he took in town the more he saw her. He even tried taking jobs at early and late shifts, and yet she still was there. It seemed the harder the job, the more often she would show up throughout the day. And she wasn’t just there to pass out the water and food. Sometimes she would just show up for a moment of conversation. Joel would watch her as she talked with people, laughing with them, crying with them, pulling them into her arms for a comforting embrace. 
And people would flock to her when they saw her, but not Joel. He still kept waiting for an explanation, some sort of answer as to why she was doing what she was. And he thought he had found it, when he saw her one day walking hand in hand down the street with a F.E.D.R.A officer, one of Joel’s best clients. 
“That’s it,” Joel thought. “She must be pretending to gain people’s trust so she can sell them out to her F.E.D.R.A husband.” He had clocked the wedding ring on her finger early on. This was the only logical explanation he could come up with. Joel knew he had to keep an eye out for her, and make sure she never got close to him. And yet, he never told Tess or Tommy about her. The girl could be a threat to his buisness and lord knew Tommy was getting himself mixed in with a dangerous crowd. Even knowing this, he couldn’t bring himself to mention her. 
All of that changed, one day he was working on street cleaning duty, it was the middle of summer and the heat was unbearable. Already three members of the crew had dropped and had to be carted away to a F.E.D.R.A hospital for heat exhaustion. And it must have been the heat that caused Joel not to be on his a game, and on the hunt for the girl. Because the next thing he knew he heard a beautiful voice behind him say
“Sir,” 
He immediately turned and saw her y/e/c staring at him. There was a small smile on her face as she held out her hand which held a cup of water. 
“Would you like some water?” She said and again the sound of her voice ripped through Joel and he almost shivered at the sound. 
This was the first time she had ever approached him, of course, it wasn’t like he had ever given her a chance to. And in all the times he thought about her, and planned out what he would do if this happened, he never knew how he would feel when it did. He felt like he was a teenage boy again, with a crush on the most popular girl in school. And all he wanted to do was fall at her feet and worship the ground he walked on. 
“It is a very hot day, and I’m sure some water would do you good.” She piped up again. 
Joel just grunted as he reached out and took the water from her. He immediately averted his gaze on her as he took a drink. Not even truly realizing how dehydrated he was until he could feel the cool liquid coat his dry throat. Without looking at her again he handed her back the cup. 
“Thank you.” She said and stopped and immediately looked at her. 
“For what?” He snapped.
“I know these jobs aren’t easy, and I know you aren’t treated the way you all should be. So thank you.” She smiled, and she sounded entirely sincere. 
For a moment Joel thought she must be an insanely good actress, but the more he looked into her warm and comforting gaze, he realized that she actually meant it. And maybe for the first time in years, hell a decade, he had met someone who was genuinely good. 
“I’m Y/N.” She extended her hand out towards him 
“Joel,” He responded back as he took her hand, the feeling of their skin touching felt electric. 
And before he had a chance to say anything else, other workers had come up to her begging for food and water. With a chance at escape, Joel slipped away heading back into the street and back to work, but not before stealing one last look back at Y/N. To his surprise he found her look at him, and when their eyes met, Y/N smiled as her cheeks turned a light shade of pink, and she quickly went back to looking at the people around her. 
“I’m fucked.” Joel thought.

RIP MARTY KROFFT 
1937-2023
Tumblr media
Marty Krofft was born on April 9, 1937 in Montréal, Québec, Canada. With his brother Sid, Krofft created some of television's most fantastic and magical programs, mostly centered around puppetry. Lucille Ball's interaction with the Krofft was brief, but memorable.
Tumblr media
The Krofft puppets first gained attention at the 1962 Seattle Worlds Fair where they presented a show called "Les Poupees de Paris" that included marionettes impersonating popular celebrities. In 1964-1965, they presented the (updated) show at the Worlds Fair in New York. In 1967, Ball's recorded voice, along with Jackie Gleason, Liberace, and Mae West and many other stars, was heard in “Six Flags presents Sid and Marty Krofft’s Circus”.
Tumblr media
On September 30, 1977, Donny and Marie welcomed Lucille Ball, who plays the Tin Lady in a Krofft-style spoof of “The Wizard of Oz” starring Ray Bolger. The first three seasons of "The Donny & Marie Show" were produced by the Kroffts, who also created the variety series. Ball appeared on the 2nd episode of the show's 3rd season, and the Osmonds (after a long legal battle) had finally won creative control from the Kroffts feeling they had outgrown the child-like atmosphere created by them. They moved the show to Utah and took over as producers just two months after this episode aired. In this episode, however, the Krofft vibe is still palpably present.
A few Lucille Ball / Desilu performers were seen on Krofft's many television shows.
Johnny Silver played Ludicrous Lion on TV's "H.R. Pufnstuf" (1969) and appeared as Dr. Blinky in the 1970 feature film.
Charles Nelson Reilly and Jerry Maren (both seen on "Here's Lucy") were part of "Lidsville" (1971).
1972's telefilm "Fol-De-Rol" (a film of their 1968 fairy tale puppet show) included Lucy guest stars Ann Sothern, Mickey Rooney, and Totie Fields.
"Sigmund and the Sea Monsters" (1972) starred Ball's good friend Mary Wickes as Aunt Zelda, and also featured Sidney Miller as the voice of Sweet Mama Ooze.
"The Lost Saucer" (1975) included Lucy friends Ruth Buzzi, Jim Nabors, and Vito Scotti.
"Far Out Space Nuts" (1975) featured Hal Smith and John Carradine, both of whom had appeared on "The Lucy Show."
Also seen on "Donny & Marie" during the Krofft years were Desi Arnaz, Jack Albertson, Bob Hope, Milton Berle, Ruth Buzzi, Buddy Hackett, Edgar Bergen, Andy Griffith, Rich Little, Iron Eyes Cody, Arthur Godfrey, and Vincent Price.

“This commingling of fashion and theatre is embodied in the official “Red Coat” uniforms worn by this evening’s familiar ushers. First designed in 1989, these historic outfits have been reimagined as New Romantic tailcoats with safety-pinned lapels and tartan kilts by Charles Jeffrey of Loverboy fame.
For Vogue World, those uniforms have been refreshed with the brooding, black-panelled tartans of the MacQueen and Cameron clans of Scotland”
I see that cool drink of whisky James McAvoy in the MacQueen and Cameron tartan 🖤 ❤️
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Where is Scotland’s King of Men, Sam Roland Heughan?
It begs the question was Sam invited? Did he decline? If so why?
A missed chance to be part of a evening with his British friends and contemporaries supporting the film and theatre industry.
Instead there was the 🥃 🍏🍸 road show with the 💵 private con in the land of oz.

I Find It In A Ironic And Poetic Way
summary: Joel finally makes good on his promise to take you outside the OZ’s walls. It is more beautiful than you could’ve ever imagined.
pairing: Joel Miller x gn!reader
warnings: cursing, post-outbreak, mentions of broken bones, but it’s really just prue fluff
word count: 1,310 words
authors note: i was rewatching not only the show but also parts of the game and couldn’t get over how beautiful the city was. i am absolutely putting myself into this because i am in love with the cities in tlou. this is short and sweet but i really wanted to get something out for yall for the holidays <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“From this point you just keep your head down and follow my lead. You got that?”
“Joel I literally help you sell this shit, I think I can wrap my head around how dangerous this–”
“Not until you’ve been out there.” He cut you off. His voice was stern but not mean and by his extreme look you would think he would mean that in a mean way. But you’ve known him for too long to know that this was far from his version of mean. Looking down at both of your dirty and very worn shoes before your eyes looked back up to him. “Okay,” You gave him a small nod, knowing that he was doing all this to make sure he was keeping good on his promise. “Okay.” He repeated before leading the way down the tunnel. Glancing over his shoulder ever so often to make sure you were still following but that you were also staying close. The sewer tunnel was what you would think one would smell like. Which was god awful. The fear of getting caught took up the front part of your brain. The punishment for getting caught leaving the walls was public hanging. The same punishment was also for disbursing contraband which is what you help them with so either way you’re fucked.
Helping sell the contraband wasn’t even his idea. It originally was Tess’s, she suggested you because of you approachability. Along with the fact of knowing your fair share of people. The guys insisted that they had to be nearby in case someone tried to pull one over the two of you. Which resulted in a few broken noses, ribs, and (or) shoulder. 
“We’re reaching the exit, so this is gunna be the most dangerous part.” He warned as the two of you walked towards the blue light growing with each step. You couldn’t help but smile at the sight, feeling your body grow with glee. 
The track through the exit took longer than the actual journey to it. Having to wait out on different sounds of trucks driving past. And staying out of the bright spot light that swept the area. But you made it. Losing counts of the time Joel had his hand out across you after hearing voices. The sight of the skyscraper and the busted up roads made it all worth it. Even though it was pitch black outside with only the two of yall’s flashlights and the small shine of the half moon it was still breathtaking. The rooftops could only allow you to see so much over the QZ’s walls. It was ecstasy how you thought it would be, just adding more greenery and overgrowth than you realized but it was still amazing. 
“We’ll spend the night in the hotel tonight and in the morning make the track to Bill and Franks.” Joel explained as the two of you jogged up the steps. He held the door open for you as you stepped inside. Shining your light all around the room. Landing on the floor being flooded seeing it almost reaching the bottom part of the countertop. 
“How deep is this?” You asked looking over your shoulder. He walked to your side, his shoulder pushing up against yours. Your light was shining down on the muddy murky water. He scoffed lightly before taking a step down the small four steps and walking into the water. Turning back towards you with a smug smile, “Not that deep,” He remarked holding his hand out for you. A small smile crept onto your face reaching forward and taking his hand. Using it to keep your balance while your feet shaklee felt their way down the few steps. Reaching his side and your smile grew as you shined your light upwards. Seeing the different levels, the different decorations, the broken parts of the railing on the second floor. “I could never afford to stay in a place like this,”
“Me neither,” He replied, looking at you in a way he hasn’t looked at anyone in a long time. The look of complete ‘aw’ in your eyes and your smile that was infectious. 
The two of you made it up to the higher levels finding one of the rooms that still had a mattress, and the door was still on its hinges. Using the decaying and watered damaged dresser to block the door. Taking the curtains that were on the floor (still on the rod) and laying it down on the musty mattress. Pulling out each of their blankets they had packed and going to sleep. Joel was the last one to fall asleep just sat upright watching as your chest raised and fall. The comforting feeling knowing that you were sleeping peacefully next to help helped him actually fall asleep. It being the first time he woke up and realized that he had slept through the night. The bright sun was already piercing its way in, the reason he woke up in the first place. Rubbing his hand over his eyes before letting it fall beside him. Panic feeling his body not being able to feel you anywhere around him. His eyes shot open as wide as they could, his body shot upwards looking around the room.
His tense body quickly left, letting out a small breath as his eyes landed on you. Sat on top of the desk you had moved towards the smashed out window. Using one of the old pillows as a cushion to sit on the window seal.
“How long have you been awake?”
You turned over towards him, giving him a soft smile. “I saw the sunrise!” You beamed looking back out the window. Joel let out a small scoff, you weren’t a morning person and yet seeing the sunrise was like the highlight of your life. “It’s different than seeing it at QZ. The moment when the sun is slowly making its way up and covering the whole sky with pale blue. That is my sunrise.”
While Joel was listening to you, he was getting out of bed and walking over towards you. Leaning his right shoulder into the wall so he was facing you. “Why is it different from the QZ?” He already knew the answer because he had been outside on countless trips. But he wanted to see you explain it. Knowing it would cause your eyes to have a small sparkle in them. The small sparkle appeared every time you expressed something that meant a lot to you. 
You turned towards him. Pressing your lips together, crossing your legs over one another to face him properly. “The building have smashed out windows, and broken parts of ceilings, flooring, and walls. I mean the ground is broken apart because of the fauna. I mean it’s actually quite stunning how the earth is reclaiming itself. The different ways the vines and grass grow as if to cover the buildings and everything around it! I find it in a ironic and poetic way.... What?”
He shook his head lightly, “Nothing..” He trailed off staring down at the one person who gave him something to smile about.

Showdown 2k24 Nominations!
alright, redoing this post now that I can give a concrete start date of Monday the 15th of January!
Nominations for the tournament are open up until the start date, and you can submit anyone who could reasonable be considered a companion, either by sending me an ask or by filling out
this form.
If you make your nomination via the form you can also submit some propaganda to go alongside the poll. Anyone who was considered a regular at any point in the last year will automatically be included, as well as anyone who was in the original tournament (+/- a couple I might miss or misremember as being a regular because I don't have old lists anywhere). The exception to this is last years winner, Rose Tyler, she will not be getting a place in the main tournament, however after the final I will run a poll to see if our new winner can beat her. (oh and also maybe I'll leave the TARDIS out but not fully decided yet)
The tournament is going to be run in the same way I did @adventure-showdown, meaning I'll keep companions from different periods of the show and different mediums segregated at first so the nicher ones don't immediately get knocked out, and slowly get mingled together. The exact details are going to depend on just how may characters get included.
Errm yeah, so go wild, nominate whoever you like (as long as they are a companion). If they are from teh TV show they have to be on this list to qualify, and for EU companions I'm going with them needing a TARDIS wiki page, and also I will give them a quick proof read to make sure they pass, the bar is low but it is there
if you want to submit an alternate version of the character sorry but main version only unless you can give a really good reason, eg regenerations of a time lord
also, if they are primarily from another franchise that'll be a no
The full list of contestents is under the cut and will be updated as nominations come in. Its sorted by medium and then to be alphabetical by first name. if an eu companion exists in multiple mediums i just sort of picked one or I put them under the other category, people who exist in real life are also sorted into their own category. There are some characters under Classic Who/NuWho who were not companions on TV but were in the EU. Companions who's names are in green have had propaganda submitted for them, if they're not in green then they don't, and just because someone has propaganda doesn't mean i wont accept more
