House M.D. but it's when a character says the name of the episode

#house md #prince's talk tag #flashing #repitition #so as i was watching this show i noticed they'd say the episode title in the episode #so i wanted to see how many times they did it #the people on livejournal who made transcripts of the episodes are my saviors and without them this would of been so much harder to do #thank you all for your service and i hope wherever you all are you're having a great day #sometimes they would use a variation of the word like in the episode poison they would say 'poisoned' or 'poisoning' #i did not include those instances #there was an instance in 'merry little christmas' where they do play the song in the show #but since ella fitzgerald was not a character in the show i did not include it #where as in the episode 'joy to the world' the students are singing it in the concert so i did include that #i apologize for the tonal whiplash when you get to that part but it did make me laugh #one of the times kutner says 'locked in' is overshadowed by the POTW's voice over but i assure you he says it and thats why its in there #out of the main characters from the one who said the title the most to least are #House > Foreman > Wilson > Chase > Cuddy > Adams > Cameron and Taub > Kutner > Thirteen and Park #this took a bit to do lolol its probably been done already but i wanted my own #there is a chance im missing some on technicalities but idc. im fine with this #there are two more i wanna do but with a character saying another character's name but ill do that some other time #EDIT: When I was making this video I was unaware that the Pilot episode went by two names: 'Pilot' and 'Everybody Lies' #Basically everywhere I looked the first episode was only referred to by 'Pilot' #which I found weird bc i remember seeing somewhere that the last episode was paired with the first episode in terms of title #but i couldn't find hard proof so I decided to leave it out at the time #well i checked again last night and yea the pilot IS also called Everybody Lies so I updated the video #I also think it goes well with the fact that House does say 'Everybody Dies' in the finale so another reason to fix it #AND he says it without Wilson while he and Wilson say the title of the pilot sooooo yea hehehehehe

CAIUS TREBONIUS AND MARK ANTONY, MARCH 15th

The Hetairia of Cassius, Luciano Canfora

Cic. Phil. 2

(taps mic) so as we all know, conspiracy is a kind of seduction, and actions not taken can be just as loud as the ones that are. so. uh. fellas! hey fellas. heyyyyyy.

like, I was looking at the Dolabella-Caesar-Antony mess yesterday, but something really fun and vicious happened here and I will be rotating it around in my head at maximum volume for the foreseeable future

the red panels are the Assassination of Julius Caesar by Vincenzo Camuccini (the pen and ink drawing, not the painting)

#gaius trebonius #like the last three times ive posted him. his look will probably change. but i have never once promised consistency on this blog #what's a consistent character design. you only achieve that when you get main character status in a comic #mark antony #drawing tag #komiks tag #roman republic tag #ides of march baby! #new tag for ides of march art. i'll retag everything later #also I’m going to kill dolabella myself. I love him. I want his head on cassius’ sword. #all these people are so MESSY good grief #also! two conspiracies: one from Cassius one from Trebonius. also sexy. much to think about #anyway test run for an idea. we will be revisiting this scene again #I have a better idea about how to do the red panels. what I don’t have is (checks notes) the patience mostly #I want to draw trebonius’ lip scar origin story #anyway they definitely got drunk and made out in a spectacularly sloppy kind of way at least once #beware! the ides of march!

h-how do you ever finish any of your work? genuine question because you seem to be productive despite your agreste syndrome and I need to learn your ways. but also how do you ever finish any of your work

unclear. last night i stayed up and finished a report worth 25% of my grade at about 5am, arrived on time for my 9am lecture, and spent about half of it zoned out while thinking about seventeen year old emilie agreste. and i was one of the most active participants in the class discussion

#in some ways it IS the move to go to grad school right out of undergrad #because your body can still sort of operate like a college kid #i’m on about 3ish hours of sleep rn and this morning it felt SO over but now i’ve eaten something and we’re so back #i also don’t really do caffeine. except sometimes i’ll go get one of those panera death lemonades #i might be able to snag a short nap before work #but anyway about seventeen year old emilie. i was thinking abt how she was in that movie solitude and adrien said she was seventeen #WAIT. NO. HE SAID SHE WAS SEVENTEEN IN THAT PHOTO ON HIS DESKTOP NOT IN THE MOVIE #well. okay whatever i’m gonna tell you what i was thinking about anyway #OKAY i’m back i just checked the wikipedia page and then i watched the end of gorizilla. to make sure i’m not lying. because i’m normal. #anyway i was thinking about the solitude film and how it’s super rare and old and obscure and whatever. and how apparently #emilie wrote it herself and andre produced it #and i’m thinking about how gabe was discovered by audrey and that’s how he got his start in the fashion industry #so now i’m like?? did gabe and emilie first meet on the set of solitude? because gabe was designing costumes or whatever? #and that’s how audrey found him? have people already thought about this?? #also i just checked and it doesn’t say emilie’s last name in the credits and also it’s ‘graham films’ with the twin rings logo m #so i’m assuming she’s still emilie graham de vanily at that point #anyway it comes back to seventeen year old emilie because i started imagining seventeen year old runaway emilie having her new life in pari #after escaping her british nobility life #and the first thing she does is write and star in an original movie. of course. #and she meets this repressed bisexual punk upstart costume designer who is so the opposite of everyone she’s ever known #and he’s immediately so unhealthily obsessed with her. which she appreciates. #and then they proceed to have the most toxic doomed evil relationship of all time #also she gets cheated because once gabe gets money he represses himself SO hard that he is now exactly like all the people emilie grew up w #but at least he’s still obsessed with her #this is what i was thinking about during class today. i don’t know how i get anything done either. #ml #anna rambles #asks

Honestly I think the most unforgivable crime comitted by the new ATLA adaptation is bringing back the fucking kataang/zutara discourse🥰

Like, I can forgive a lot, but I can't forgive the fact that my own eyes, in the year of our lord 2024, have to be subjected to takes I first saw on 2011 DeviantArt

#tbf not to poke the hornets nest but its honestly just zutara people complaining abt 'haters' and being 'bullied for their ship' #like could you guys at least double check that the 'hater' opinion ur disagreeing w has actually been expressed by anyone THIS DECADE lol #atla #natla #avatar the last airbender #zutara #kataang #|<- REALLY poking the hornets nest by maintagging these lol. but you know what. maybe i do wanna fight. just to feel something #in that case to be clear im not talking abt zutara fanart or whatever im specifically talking abt the dumb discourse #y'all might not have been in the trenches but i was there and boy was there so much DUMB SHIT from both sides #i dont even care abt either of them lol. literally babys first fandom experience and i had to learn QUICK to avoid both #of them like the fucking plague #honestly is the concept of a 'shipping war' still a thing even? #i havent really been involved in fandom for a while lol but it just feels like such an early 2010s thing #looking at these posts in the atla tag really feels like a time window back to like 2014. even the tone #like is that still a thing? #are you guys bringing back the concept of 'lemon' and 'no flaming plz' next #you really dont want to revive 2012 fandom culture guys fucking trust me

THE WAY HIS FACE LIGHTEN UP WHEN WE SAW ARAJIN IM GONNA BE SICK

There's no handbook for how to break it to your ex-girlfriend that you can't stay friends because you're about to become a bloodthirsty vampire who may or may not kill her on the spot.

Previous / Next

Ulrike: Are you sure you're up for this?

Helena: Stop asking me that! We'll be done faster if we work together.

Ulrike: I don't know how you can stand to wear that hoodie. It's been like summer the past few days.

Helena: Just shut up and keep this thing moving.

Ulrike: Yes, ma'am.

-

Ulrike: Really? You guys move one mattress and already need a cupcake break?

Isaiah: We've earned it.

Ange: There's been a real dearth of quality baked goods in our lives lately.

Ulrike: Get your asses back to work!

-

Ulrike: What is that on your neck? Is that a hickey?

Helena: What? God, no, it - it’s nothing. Why are you being so nosy?

Ulrike: [smirks] Because it’s fun to see you squirm.

-

Ulrike: Come on! You call to brag about meeting the hottest girl alive - must be, if she beats me - and now you’re going to leave me hanging?

Helena: [cringes] Did I really say that? I was so drunk that night.

Ulrike: Obviously.

Helena: There’s nothing to say because it’s not going anywhere. I’ll probably never see her again.

Ulrike: Ah. She was too good to be true?

Helena: Something like that.

Ulrike: Eat up, Zhao. You look like you could use the nutrients.

Helena: I do feel awfully hungry…

-

Ulrike: It’s the end of an era, huh?

Helena: Yeah, it really is.

Ulrike: You’ve got someplace to stay?

Helena: Oh, yeah. I’ll be fine. [laughs weakly] My turn to borrow a spare couch.

Ulrike: Then where are you headed?

Helena: Home, I guess. [under breath] That should be far enough for now.

Ulrike: Far enough from what?

Helena: I don’t know. [hesitates] Everything? I just need a break.

Ulrike: Well, you could always come visit me in Windenburg. I’d like us to stay friends, you know?

Helena: Yeah, maybe… [doubles over in sudden blinding pain]

Ulrike: You’re really okay?

Helena: [dismissively] It’s just cramps. Can you believe I’ve got my period on top of everything else?

Ulrike: Take care, Zhao. And keep the tarps. Seems like you need them more than I do.

#ts4 #sims 4 #sims 4 story #ts4 story #simblr #story: hzid #helena zhao #ulrike faust #isaiah swain #ange northwood #oh NOW she wants helena in windenburg with her #anyway this may be the last time we see ulrike... :( #i have a vague notion of checking in on her down the line but we'll see if it ends up fitting or not #at least she made it out alive though #(those are helena's post-breakup cupcakes #it's hard to believe it's been less than two weeks since they broke up in story time)

[ cw: death mention / ]

You know, sometimes I think of all the moments Leo was ready for death, and how his last words each and every time were never goodbyes.

I’d like to think that, each time, he had an innate hope that things would turn out okay.

He grows up to be the world’s greatest ninja, after all.

And a ninja’s greatest weapon is hope.

#rise leo #rottmnt leo #rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #death mention / #rottmnt movie spoilers #AT LEAST TO MY MEMORY #All ~five~ times never contained a goodbye #either jokes or apologies or an attempt to take the fall for his fam #from what I remember #there was the two times he tried to give himself up for the sake of his fam #the movie where he succeeded in doing this #the time he was thrown off a building by draxum #and lastly when a brainwashed Raph almost killed him #I’ll have to go back to check if there were any more but yeah #first two were earnest pleas for his family’s safety at his expense #second two were quips (“that’s how I cope’’) #last was an apology

No Thorns, All Marsh, pt. 1

#horizon forbidden west #hfw #hfw photomode #what best to follow the daunt up with? #you guessed it! #thornmarsh pics! #turns out i really can't resist the fog #and the fireclaws #and everything looking the same #so i get turned around at least five times looking for an unmarked fireclaw site #i knew there was a shallow body of water #a path close by #and a small rise to one side #but turns out about 70% of thornmarsh fits that description #and of course the puddle close to the drone site was the one i checked last #which also spawned that fireclaw i was almost convinced i had hallucinated before

as a kid in utah, i remember really clearly that touch typing was a thing schools started teaching you as early as second grade, but my friends in arizona just. didn't ever learn and some of them are now teaching themselves to as adults. so now im kind of curious...

(It doesn't matter if their lessons actually stuck for you, I'm just curious if they even tried lol. feel free to also add in tags when they started teaching you and/or what general area of the country you live if you're comfortable!)

#utah is bad at being most things but i am so grateful i learned how to touch type as a kid at least #iirc arizona has one of the lowest rated education systems in the USA so its not really surprisingmy friends didnt unfortunately. #learning it as an adult sounds so much harder i think its cool my friends have the kind of dedication to do it though #i havent taken a typing test in a long time but last i checked my typing speed was 75ish wpm? maybe ill take one later for fun hehe #i had the highest WPM in my school in sixth grade and i got really good by writing mlp oc fanfiction in microsoft word LOLOL #bri talks #i think ive made a post posing a similar question once a long time ago but polls are a better format to ask things like this in

[luvsavos]

for how mentally ill i am about monster hunter and shara ishvalda specifically i sure am always noticing new things about them

#monster hunter #mar.txt #shara ishvalda #this is of course a good thing #when i just fought shara a bit ago i noticed that a) they seem to，at least with their front paws，stand on their toes rather than the full #paw (alatreon does this too，but on all paws instead of just the front ones) #which explains why only their back paws have defined paw pads #b) after their eyes open every time they do one of the ground liquefaction attacks you can see mountains/giant rocky spires in the #background collapse; i THINK all of the remaining ones collapse with their first spirit bomb? but i'm gonna check #also i didn't JUST notice it i noticed it the other night but i tested it last i fought them but they seem to Only have their jaw hanging #open when their eyes are open? they keep it closed when their eyes are closed #i'm honestly not sure why，my running theories are either it's some kind of reaction to their light sensitivity or its deliberately done to #be more scary/intimidating looking #but tbqh there is soooooo much about shara that i Do Not Understand. like how the rocks on their face twitch when they have their mantle on #but i am 100% fine with that i do not think shara is Meant to be Understood #god is beyond my comprehension and i am fine with that

This interview confirmed

The point of the wilds era games is showcasing mechanics, the 'core' of both games was to build and walk around

There will be no DLC

There will not be another direct sequel

The ultrahand will not continue in future games

The timeline is intentionally unclear to make the game accessible for new fans and the development process (tl;dr All Zelda games are intentionally AUs to a degree)

The producer and director both deny intentional references to prior games in the story, but then say that these similarities represent the soul of the series and the overall myth of The Legend of Zelda (pick a lane)?

The timeline doesn't matter, outside of specific sets of games it's irrelevant on purpose. Whatever you think about the timeline is correct. Continuity is not the point. Maintaining the form while creating something new is the point.

Fujibayashi really only cares about mechanics and Aunoma is totally cool with that

#yikes! #cw negativity #aunoma's answers were better than fujibayashi's but yeeugh what a bad taste in the mouth #'this is the first time i'm hearing the theory that these are direct references to prior games' sir have you spoken to your story departmen #don't answer that i know the answer is no #man these interviews are so bleak lol #Interviewer's like: Hey can you tell us about this story and they're like: (chanting) yeah whatever have you checked out the tech tho #Finding out Fujibayashi literally had No background in storytelling before becoming a director makes SO much sense #he started as an attraction designer for theme parks like his whole skillet is based in how to get people to walk around efficiently #which granted is an important skill in game desing! but GOD it explains EVERYTHING about the last three titles lmao #he literally said his first game job was pitching Other People's Concepts to the director. Then he became the director. #Baffling lol #I'm glad actual fans of story work in the story department or we'd be completely doomed #At least currently there's Some Glimmers now and then #but Aunoma wants to leave the series to him and I hrk--!!

[owlf45]

How is the beginning of the chapter going? You mentioned that's the part you were having issues with

what if.. i just. posted 3k word chapters. maybe even... 5k word chapters. like a normal person. but no, my brain screams. i have to be mentally ill with 20k word chapters or else something terrible will befall me!!!! for some UNGODLY REASON!!!!

#im being unnecessarily dramatic for the clownery effect btw. before anyone tries to say anything #its not even like i could post 3k words since all the words are from the second half of the chapter. eugh /lh /lh #its fine im doing homework right now and i think i will get to it #tbh im wrapping up the end of the chapter (which took a while) #it was one of those scenes with tons of moving parts and i must've checked over it at least eight times now #youll know when you get to it #once i finish the last scene(?) ill loop back around #my asks #imaginary

Interest Check

With more free time and energy on my hands this upcoming year, I'm looking into possibly making a small merch store in a year or two! But before I can set anything in stone I wanted to do a survey about what people are interested in.

reblogs are appreciated!

#interest check #fandom #merchandise #poll #This year will probably be the last year I get to physically table at conventions #at least for a long time #and I'm gonna miss it so I figured I'd look into hosting things from my home instead

[moonpaw]

dogs caught what i believed was some kind of black bird up until i whisked it away and realized it was a hawk or falcon chick? i had to relocate it 3 times because they kept finding it again before i finally plopped it down into our open shed which conveniently gives a little birdie plenty of hiding spots

but i was still worried about it possibly starving and it was unclear if the parents were near or not so i put down some water and leftover bird feed (even though i doubted it would probably eat it) and left it alone

checked up on it today and not only does it sound healthy, it looks like one of its parents is keeping an eye on the little guy 🙏

#it couldnt even peep anymore by the time i moved it for the last time so now that its nice and LOUD when it heard its parent fly in and out #i assume its getting fed and taken care of #i wasnt sure if i shouldve taken it to a wildlife center or not #its like? half grown i think? #and if its parents are taking care of it once it can fly im sure it'll be alright #i can pop in every few days i guess to see if its still screaming its little head off #or at least make sure my dogs dont get a hold of it anymore #poor guy was stubborn and got smacked around for a while before i eventually woke up and snatched it away #but man i wasnt sure if it was still there #i snooped around and didnt hear or see anything for a few minutes until i stood still for a bit #and saw another falcon pop in; see me; and flew right back out #but after it did that the chick started to scream lol #ur fine little buddy #oughhgh ok i stayed up way past my bedtime just to wait to go check on it #mimis time...
