SFSFF Returns to Castro Theatre
The San Francisco Silent Film Festiva will return with an in-person festival for their 25th anniversary, May 5–11 at San Francisco's Castro Theatre. We are proud to be co-presenting two films at this year's festival, Heorhii Tasin's 1926 Soviet Ukrainian film Arrest Warrant (Order na aresht) and Charles Vanel's 1930 French silent Dans la nuit. The former is a benefit screening. Proceeds will go to the Oleksandr Dovzhenko National Centre in Kyiv and to World Central Kitchen, serving nourishing meals to refugees in the region.
Arrest Warrant, set during the Civil War following the Bolshevik Revolution, centers around Nadia (Valentyna Varetska) whose revolutionary husband has fled the city as the White Army advances, leaving her behind with a cache of secret documents to guard. Brilliant expressionist effects highlight Nadia's psychological torture.  The Sascha Jacobsen Quintet will provide live musical accompaniment. Print courtesy of Oleksandr Dovzhenko National Centre. You can purchase tickets here.

A a mining disaster upends the life of newlyweds in the extraordinary late silent-era film Dans la nuit, directed by and starring Charles Vanel. While it passed without much notice upon its release, his labor of love displays not only technical bravura but also sincere feeling for the working-class France of Vanel's upbringing. Stephen Horne, one of the world's leading silent film accompanists, will provide the live musical accompaniment. Restoration by the Institute Lumière. You can purchase tickets here.
Visit the SFSFF's website to see the festival's complete line-up of films.

You know what would have helped? A benzo. But she hoovered them all before we made her puke ‘em out, so it looks like she dug her own grave on that one. Yeah, Fatin. She almost did.

the GREAT PATREON SMUSH
I was going to make an advertisement for this with bright colors and maybe animated sparkles but 1) I hate making ads and 2) we are all so exhausted by bright ads vying for our brain chemicals that I just don’t want to do that to you anymore!!!! I’m TIRED of things grabbing for my attention in an unending assault on my senses and I’m sure you are too!!!!!!!
if you’ve been doom-scrolling and need a break (a nice beverage, a stretch of the legs, etc.), take this as a sign to do so now. if you’ve got the energy for a little reading, though, and want to learn about my work - keep going!
ANYWAYS I’ll get to the point: ALL of my patreon benefits are now available to the lowest ($3) tier.
in fact, there ARE no other tiers anymore. they’re gone! scrunched! smunshed! stirred up all together into one big super tier soup of everything I offer now and will offer in the future!
Tumblr media
everyone now gets:
over 100 4k desktop wallpapers
early access/wips
25% discounts on prints
livestream voice chat
art votes & art suggestions
commission slots
and access to the Art Grotto discord, a friendly and chill server with a small community of creative folks. we share art, writing, pets, memes, and also come up with fun art ideas together! 🌈
why am I smushing the tiers and giving up the higher pledge amounts?!
because capitalism sucks, we’re in a recession, and I’m lucky enough to have a full-time job that allows me to make art without being reliant on Patreon income. anyone who has sat in on one of my livestreams knows that I try to be a calming force in an often-chaotic world, and that I’m always looking for ways to make art more accessible to everyone. I want my Patreon to be a place where I can give back to those who are supporting me in this mission!
this tier smush is just the start of how I hope to transform this space! I have a bunch of fun ideas about stuff I want to do in the future, so keep an eye out for more announcements like this 👁
that’s all!!!! thank you if you’ve read this far, and here’s the link to the Patreon if any of this interested you!

one of The most underrated thiam moments to me is ironically enough the last time we see them on screen together. admittedly it does happen after the i’m-not-dying-for you scene and the theo-pushing-liam-in-front-of-him-to-protect-him-from-getting-shot scene (which i have already posted about here <3) but it is still SO important to me, because it shows that liam and theo are sticking together even after the battle is finished. think about it. this shot can’t take place more than a few minutes after theo took gabe’s pain (during which liam was watching him with the most tragic look Ever). nolan was there for that, and even though he isn’t liam’s best buddy, there were other people in the room that liam does care about. mason, corey, and melissa were all standing there watching too, and yet it isn’t them we see liam walking off with. i have no doubt there were some tearful reunions and hugs between them off screen, but the fact that it’s theo we see standing behind liam when he tells monroe they lost is so meaningful to me. the fight has just ended, they both have bullets still buried in them, theo just took someone’s pain for the first time, and liam just watched his classmate die in a particularly brutal way. they’re both in a vulnerable state in that moment, but they still end up gravitating towards each other.

not to drudge up old discourse but it’s really interesting that harry saying “a movie that feels like a movie” was really just him trying to say it’s a movie that when you watch on the big screen is visually appealing and is trying to get away from the straight to streaming vibes of many movies. like we all know what he meant but the drama surrounding that movie was too big that anyone doing something as simple as walking was over analyzed and over critiqued

Gotta love how Laena, the only prominent WoC in the story so far, has been completely sidelined and presented as nothing but second choice for Daemon when in the book they had by all accounts a happy loving marriage in favor of making Daemyra look better

Orgasms being referred to as small deaths is actually so important to me. Like it inspires me to listen to Hozier and think of the most codependent cannibalistic extended metaphor of a relationship I’ve ever seen.
It’s such a possessive thought, isn’t it? Collecting tens and dozens little deaths from the person that means the most to you, having a piece of their mortality even for a moment, holding them as they shake through their little death and are born again. You can almost taste it, a bright burning heat that is solely them, their life, their death.
I’m pretty sure there’s a Hozier song about exactly that and if not there soon will be.
