#fuck newark

[exdivine]

maybe it’s a bit fucked up that $1000 a month is a “good deal” for a semi-dilapidated studio apartment in a very uncool city in new jersey

#i’ll still take it #everywhere else is at least 1500 #i got the candem trenton irvington price #fuck newark

the thing that has been driving me Bonkers since the show last night is the way the suit jacket is tailored, because despite the obvious intended read that Gerard is going for Sinatra drag* with it, nodding at the history of Las Vegas and, possibly more pertinently, Atlantic City and midcentury casino/gambling culture, this is not a midcentury men's suit.

i'm specifically talking about the cut of the suit here, ignoring the gold-and-pink-glitter color scheme. in sinatra's day, you wouldn't find a suit jacket for men that flares outward at the waist like this, and it wouldn't hang with visible up-and-down creases that draw the eye to, and further narrow, your waist.

that's a silhouette for women's suits in the 50s, not men's.

it's also gerard's preferred silhouette for Performing Gender; structured-shoulder-to-snatched-waist is the structure we see in the cheer outfit, the nurse outfit, and the jackie kennedy cosplay, and it's absolutely fascinating to see them use it in what amounts to subversive masculine presentation as opposed to just his dresses, because this means it's not just about creating a more feminine hourglass shape for their femme looks, it's an active preference for everything tailored that they put on, and in particular for when they're Performing Gender.

and I just can't get over how gorgeous and amazing and queer that that feels, even before we point out the Columbia connection and the glam influence as to the material and colors.

then you combine it with the dustup over kerrang!'s shitty little review of their show at Riot, and it really feels like doubling down on Doing The Gender Stuff sort of in response to that, like "oh, you have a problem with me dressing femininely and taking care of my audience? here, let me give masculinity the same fucking treatment."

it's so good and I'm going out of my mind with it.

(*"drag" used in the ambiguous midcentury fashion here, where it applies not just to crossdressing, ex. in bruce springsteen's "backstreets" w/"endless juke joints and Valentino drag")

thinking about how Auden would have been a more traditional and palatable protagonist for a game like Forspoken, running around selflessly helping everybody and trying to save the world all by herself. It would’ve been easy to relegate Frey to the crass comic relief friend who swears a lot. The game probably would have been a lot more successful that way, too.

That makes me appreciate all the more that they stuck to their guns and made it entirely Frey’s story tbh. Ilu Auden but I love Frey more lol

#like thinking about how easy it would have been to make Auden the main character who’s trying to figure out how her new friend got here- #-from another world #she def would have been a lot more palatable to the average gamer (despite her still a dreaded Female Protagonist lmao) #anyways fuck that 🖕🖕Newark BLAST 💥🗽🫵 #forspoken

dear delta airlines. i appreciate your dedication to ingenuity and creative problem solving when it comes to international flights, especially ones that connect from a hub that serves the airport in my podunk nowhere hometown, but i am not paying one thousand united states dollar for the privilege of spending seventeen hours in the newark airport

#speak friend and enter #i might (MIGHT) be convinced to spend the night in ohare but that's a big maybe and the price would have to be really fucking good #but NEWARK????? surely you jest

[swordswaltz]

as someone whose home airport was newark for 11 years, seeing everyone universally shit on newark is so vindicating. charlie slimecicle made a joke about newark being awful recently and i out loud cheered

#welcome to newark airport here's some trash. your license will not scan right at the tsa station and they will hate you #what are the rules regarding keeping your laptop in your bag? who knows! fuck you. it's changed 3 times since the last time you were here #aww youre hungry? yeah? here's 5 restaurants with the same menu that charge $40 for a burger. also they're all packed constantly #aw you have dietary restrictions? eat some fucking chips and soggy apples like a RAT. FUCK you. #you think people walking should have the right of way in the airport designed for walking across? what are you stupid? #if you don't get out of the way of one of those vehicles transporting people barreling down the aisle you will be run over #every seat at every gate is peeling. if you sit on them an older italian man will stare at you judgmentally #have a shit day

My VTM character has been put into Fallout 4 and I don’t regret it at all. He’s been so much fun to play as and to try and build a melee/charisma build around!

There’s a theory that the Sole Survivor is actually a synth and I absolutely love said theory and it makes a hell of a lot of sense (more sense than the actual twist) and it fits Calvin perfectly.

More info under the cut…

In this AU he’s ex military AND serial killer who had his reign of terror before the war in his old life. Now he gets his kicks off of killing raiders and other wasteland filth who want to hurt innocent settlers.

He’s mostly a do-gooder, but he’s a do-gooder who doesn’t take shit, isn’t super nice with his help and often demands extra pay when he’s particularly inconvenienced, or testing to see how much of a stand-up guy a leader is.

Resistant to authority, questioning government in whatever form it takes, lashing out at people who take advantage and lie and cheat and steal, this man is volatile in his quest to make the world better and the world is better for it.

Right?

Also he 100% settles down in Far Harbor at the end. He loves the seaside and the isolation.

#fallout art #my art #my ocs #oc #calvin newark #calvin #fallout 4 #fallout oc #far harbor is my favorite dlc #calvin is also 100% down with valentine and trusts the synth with his LIFE #He’s chill with Hancock but he wishes he’d be less laid back and more gung ho about shit #he likes piper and supports her efforts to drag McDonough through the mud #he likes preston and trusts him with his life #he doesnt know how to feel about codsworth but hes touched he waited all this time just for him… he doesnt feel worthy #he loves dogmeat. do not FUCK with dogmeat. #he wants cait to chill the fuck out but he also respects her #he likes old man longfellow well enough but hes cautious about hanging out with him too long. he doesnt want to go back to heing a lush #calvin hates the brotherhood so i doubt hell ever get Danse and even if he did #he would likely make Danse hate him lol #i dont think i have any other companions unlocked in this playthrough but ill probably add on as i get more of them ehe

There are a lot of things Darian could currently be having a crisis over, the fact that he's found himself outside the Lands Between, what that means for him, whether his brother joined him here, where he ended up if he did, why half the people here seem to be running around in their underwear, or what the hell an omen? odd misbegotten? dragon cultist? is doing wandering around with someone who looks like a noble. Of everything his mind ends up focusing on the most pressing existential threat on his list; a gaggle of overly enthusiastic young teenagers that have gotten far too close and asked him far too many questions to possibly even register.

"Did you make this armor yourself?" "How do you see out of that helmet?" "Is it real metal? Do you have a shop here?" "Is your outfit from something?" "Are you going to be participating in the HEMA tournament later? That's a pretty unrealistic sword if you are." "It's from that new game right? The one that just came out? How'd you make it so fast?" "Who's this?"

He'd been trying to be patient and not react, in the hopes that the kids would get bored and move along so he could go back to trying to figure out what in the name of the Marika the Eternal was going on, but when the most daring of the group reaches out a hand to touch the silver bust, he grabs their wrist out of reflex. The hand on his sword tightens and he tries to calm himself but the group just keeps talking.

"Oooh! Look what you've done now, Chrisy!" "You pissed him off!" "You know in medieval times they'd cut the hands off thieves!" "I wasn't gonna steal it!" "You should get thrown in the stocks!" "I'm sorry sir knight!" "Thirty lashes! Josie stop being a dickhead." "The pillary!" "Maybe we should leave him alone, I don't think he works here." "Strap him to the breaking wheel!" "Josie!"

Once the kid starts to try and pull out of his grip Darian manages to unclench his hand, deciding that his best course of action is to leave as quickly as possible. He turns his back on the group of kids and heads for the nearest hiding place he can see, what looks to be a tavern of sorts. Behind him he hears the group begin arguing over who it was that scared him off.

The building he finds himself in is thankfully less crowded than the main press of people outside, and more importantly, free of overly curious children. Darian takes a seat in the most isolated corner he can find, and tries to remember how to breathe. What the absolute fuck was he meant to do now?
