I've been without AC for over a month now, which I know was already late but I'm still sorry about saying I'd get the next chapter out sooner. I've lately been mostly devoting my energy to being an angry puddle on the floor rather than writing

#i live in the south it is so hot #at least i'm not in texas anymore #but still #so hot #they've tried to fix it so many times now #it hasn't worked #i have a home warranty and it is SHIT #apparently #thought it was pretty good when i got it the liars #though granted i have used my hot puddle time to research some things so more #mainly St. Hedwig's Orphanage and the Chicago Read-Mental Health Center as a fun preview for those who read the tags

pro of being a polish trekkie: you know very well how to spell "jadzia"

con of being a polish trekkie: your first instinct when you see it spelt is definitely not to pronounce it as jad-ziya

#if there is any explanation as to why they chose to name her that #please tell me #it will keep me wondering forever #and in case you didn't know #jadzia is a diminutive of jadwiga #which is the polish version of hedwig #st stuff #personal

Friedhöfe

1.

Friedhöfe, die sich füllen, sind nicht so deprimierend wie Friedhöfe, die sich leeren. Wenn ich das Grab meines Vaters in Wuppertal besuche, dann sehe ich jedes mal mehr Freiflächen. Laufen die Verträge aus, wird das Feld günstig neu zurechtgemacht, wie ein freigewordenes Bett in einem IBIS-Hotel, nur nicht aus Bettwäsche und Pressholz, sondern aus Gras und Erde

Die Friedhofsverwaltung denkt, dass sie den Flecken wieder neu verpachten kann und dass sie ihn besser los wird, wenn niemand bei der Auswahl daran erinnert wird, dass man alte Tote weggeräumt hat um neuen Toten Platz zu machen. Ausserdem besser jetzt alles wegräumen als später, wer weiß wie teuer das später ist, die Inflation! Die denken also langfristig und räumen kurzfristig. Die letzten 30 Jahre, in der dieser Friedhof gerade wegen der zunehmend frischen und unverblümt spurenlosen Rasenflächen immer hohlwangiger und löchriger erschien, die hat diese Verwaltung mit ihrer Kalkulation effizient durchgehalten.

2.

Der alte Domfriedhof St. Hedwig in Mitte, ältester noch existierender katholischer Friedhof in Berlin, da wo das Grab von Hermann und Antonie Brandi liegt, der sei selbst dem Tode geweiht, schreibt jemand. Die Mauer verlief hier, der Todesstreifen auch, 40 Meter Tote hat die Grenze damals eingeholt, mit dem Bau der Mauer wurde die Friedhofsmauer nämlich versetzt. Das ist ein katholischer Friedhof, die Kapelle dort will, wenn sie einmal groß ist, das Pantheon sein, sie ist ein Rundbau, der dem römischen Vorbild nacheifert. Allein schon darum trete ich nicht aus der katholischen Kirche aus. Nicht weil ich glaube, dass irgendwas von meinen Geld in diesen Bau fliessen würde, aber weil es dort Leute gibt, die die katholische Kirche selbstverständlich mit römischem Heidentum, mit Viel-, Mehr- und Allesgötterei assoziieren und im übrigen Geld verschwenden. Was denn sonst? Sicher geht dieser Friedhof unter, dafür ist er da. Das ist keine effiziente Bodenverwaltung, seine Gestaltung lehnt sich weder am IBIS noch am Novotel an. Die Kapelle wurde zwar renoviert, die gilt aber inzwischen auch als Denkmal, das fällt unter Kunst, das ist verzeihlich.

‘Glee’ alum Darren Criss ready for National Christmas Tree Lighting ahead of Wolf Trap

His breakthrough role arrived on Fox’s “Glee” before winning an Emmy Award on FX’s “American Crime Story.”

This week, actor and singer Darren Criss performs live at the National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on The Ellipse outside the White House on Thursday night.

“This is my first year doing this particular event,” Criss told WTOP. “I’ve been lucky enough in my career to have done a number of things for the Bidens. That is a low-key humble brag. They haven’t decided to kick me off the invite list yet, but there’s still room! I could really biff it at the White House.”

He joins a star-studded lineup of Mickey Guyton, Dionne Warwick, Joe Walsh, Ledisi and St. Vincent.

“It’s a pretty cool list, man,” Criss said. “I just saw the list and I don’t know who printed the ad mat, but there’s no world in my mind where I would ever appropriately be anywhere higher or before the likes of St. Vincent, Renee Rapp. … When your name is with the likes of Joe Walsh, Dionne Warwick and many more, you can’t help but just have a huge wave of imposter syndrome.”

After that, “A Very Darren Crissmas” hits The Barns at Wolf Trap in Virginia on Saturday and Sunday.

“We’re just going from town to town spreading holiday cheer, man,” Criss said. “A lot of people put out holiday albums … just playing the very well-known songs. … My main goal in life is not necessarily as a performer but more like a curator. … If I had it my way, my Christmas album would have been 100 songs that no one’s ever heard of, but because I’m not a fool, I toe the line between familiar stuff but I do it in an unfamiliar way.”

Born in San Francisco in 1987, Criss grew up in loving “Star Wars,” “Transformers” and The Beatles. He pursued the arts as a theater major at the University of Michigan, performing in “Pride & Prejudice” and “A Few Good Men” before founding StarKid Productions to produce his own shows. That included the Harry Potter production “A Very Potter Musical,” which actually landed songs on the Billboard charts.

After appearing on the ABC series “Eastwick,” Criss’ big break came on Fox’s “Glee” (2010-2015), playing transfer student Blaine Anderson, who eventually married Kurt Hummel. Criss started out singing Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” and ended by writing the Emmy-nominated song “This Time” for the series finale.

“‘Glee’ was incredibly popular and progressive,” Criss said. “I lucked out and won the golden ticket because when I joined that show, it already had a significant degree of attention where one of the most popular characters was Kurt, somebody who was making waves … in the queer dialogue amongst popular culture, the conversation of gay teens and representation of queer people on mainstream, linear, network television.”

He reunited with Ryan Murphy to play the killer Andrew Cunanan in “American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace” (2017), beating out Antonio Banderas, Benedict Cumberbatch, Jeff Daniels, John Legend and Jesse Plemons to win the Emmy for Best Actor in a Limited Series.

“Actors wait a whole lifetime for parts like that,” Criss said. “This horrible thing happened because of a guy who happened to kind of look like me and be kind of my age and ethnicity. … Twenty years later, how do we make sure those tragedies don’t end up as these horrible things? To bring light to a darkness by illuminating the things around those tragedies, the other themes that led to how and why these things happened.”

On stage, his Broadway roles include replacing Daniel Radcliffe in “How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying” (2012), replacing Neil Patrick Harris in “Hedwig and the Angry Inch” (2015) and joining Sam Rockwell and Laurence Fishburne in the revival of David Mamet’s play “American Buffalo” (2022).

“I’ve really gotten to check a lot of boxes in what I believe to still be the earlier part of life and career, boxes that I really did always dream of and worked hard to get to,” Criss said. “Now onto Christmas baby!”

That Wasn’t Me, That Was Patricia: Split, ST, TFS, and Miss Patricia vs Patricia Newby

So, I remembered that “Split,” is on the S4 board- well, technically, the movie “Unbreakable,” is on the board, which is the third movie in the trilogy that Split is part of (Glass, Split, and Unbreakable), and what I’m talking about today is about the series as a whole/point is, that whole story is confirmed inspo:

And in Split, there’s a character named Kevin, and Kevin has 23 personalities (and then a 24th extra personality called The Beast, but we’ll get to that in another post), and one of those personalities is named Patricia:

And in TFS, not only is Patty’s full name Patricia, but Mr Newby also repeatedly calls her Patricia during the play.

And in Split, one of Patricia’s characteristics is that she sings- for example, she sings to one of the other personalities, Hedwig, which reminds me of Patty’s singing being such a core part of her character in TFS:

There’s also “that wasn’t me, that was Patricia,” versus TFS Henry “it wasnt me” in reference to the cave in Nevada:

Technically, this “that was Patricia” line doesn’t appear in the movie- HOWEVER, it was SUCH a huge meme/reference to the movie that I won’t be surprised if Henry’s TFS dialogue was written in reference to that joke as a way of referencing the whole Split/Patricia thing.

And also in Split, the question of whether or not two identities can coexist/front at the same time- and the answer is yes, which reminds me of the TFS scene where “Henry” is in the attic with Alice, and Alice asks “Where’s Henry?” and “Henry” responds with “he’s right here,” and Alice says “you’re not Henry, you’re not him,” and Henry was seemingly referring to himself in 3rd person- or, instead, he’s NOT HENRY, like Alice said, but with Henry being “right here,” it feels like this Not Henry guy is coexisting with Henry in a way that’s very similar to how two identities coexisting at the same time is described in Split:

And now, I’m wondering if Patty and Henry are somehow connected to Brenner’s mind or inside of his mind/have somehow been “absorbed” by him.

Especially with one of the Brenners in the NINA bunker talking about how 001 “absorbs” his victims versus all of the weird Brenner-001 stuff (including his line during TFS where he says “no ONE except for me Henry”), and the idea that the absorption abilities in ST could be very similar to Kevin’s multiple personalities in Split, as 001 canonically absorbs the memories, personalities, everything from his victims:

(Also, the point specifically about abilities getting absorbed is interesting re: Patty’s singing vs Patricia singing & the fact that Split brings up that certain personalities will have abilities that the other personalities dont have, despite all being in the dame body- it’s interesting, because TFS makes a point of showing us in the beginning that Henry is NOT good at singing whatsoever- and yet, at the end of TFS, when he sings to El, his singing has vastly improved. Almost like he somehow absorbed the skill from Patty, which would align with what I’m talking about here re: some sort of weird Henry-Patty-Brenner mental connection. Which also makes me wonder about Henry’s drawing skills in-show vs the fact that in-show Brenner is shown to not be good at drawing- are we going to get a weird version of Brenner that CAN draw because he’s connected to Henry/absorbed him/whatever???)

So, instead of a literal DID situation, it’s much more of a figurative one, I want to be super clear that I’m not saying that Henry and Patty are just the result of Brenner actually having multiple personalities- I’m saying that there’s weird connections between Brenner and 001 and the idea of Brenner somehow being 001, and the whole Brenner-Edward merge idea, and then the fact that 001’s canon absorption powers could appear similarly to Kevin’s multiple personalities, and that Patty and TFS Henry were real actual separate people, but may have gotten absorbed by 001/absorbed into the hivemind, and are now in some sort of weird Brenner-hivemind-simulation situation in TFS.

Hell, part of me wonders if that’s what’s going on with everyone in TFS- after all, basically all of the characters get referred to as “ONE” in some way at some point, and there’s all of the weirdness re: TFS being some sort of weird simulation and having all of these 1970s anachronisms, such as the Chuck E’s In Love reference & Rachel, Nevada not existing until 1978.

Anyway! Lots to think about!

happy sts :) what kind of music is prevalent in your world? what kind of music do you associate with your world, story, or character(s)? do you ever make playlists for them?

Thats difficult, I don't know if there is a specific music that I associate with the world, it really varies wildly depending on what part I'm writing. As for characters, that also sort of depends. Sometimes when I'm really trying to get in the head space of a character I will listen to one song over and over again. These are ones that I can think of off the top of my head.

Narul is a cover of "The Greatest Adventure" from the 70s animated Hobbit movie and Yellowbrick Road by Elton John.

I'm not really sure why but when I'm trying brainstorming about my character Istek, I like listen to the soundtrack of the original Hedwig and the Angry Inch. That and sea shanties which make a bit more sense.

Zatar is heavy metal/rock. Especially Ramstein.

Akard is Blood//Water by Grandson and a few other things.

I do have a Writing Playlist on Youtube and it is the most bizarre collection of songs, basically anything that I heard once that scratched a writing itch in my head.

Thanks for the Ask!
