“When I brought Elvis in something that he really loved to eat, he was adorable, sitting up against the pillows, cross-legged in his men’s pajamas. He had this cute little dance he did in bed, where he rocked from side to side, sometimes with his eyes closed, with this beatific smile on his face, almost like Stevie Wonder. That’s how much he loved his favorite foods. It tasted so good to him and made him so supremely content. I can still see him rocking left to right in bliss, enjoying his food.” (Thompson, 2016: 86-87) * #elvispresley #presley #theking #graceland #elvis #smile #love #idol #music #iconic #vintage #style #classy #vintagefashion #kingofmusic #rockandroll #sideburns #blessedsoul #rip #elvisthepelvis #memphis #tupelo #soldier #elvislegacy #epe https://www.instagram.com/p/CpDrToQLkz1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Behold, The Power from on high is coming
Forth to reap and to judge the nations,
To sound the trumpet in the four corners,
To cause the name of The Lord
To resound in all the earth…
Bow before The King, therefore;
Humble yourselves before The Holy One of Israel…
Lay yourselves upon the altar and be broken
Atop The Stone, and it shall bear you up;
Yet stand defiant, and you shall be crushed
Beneath the weight of The Mountain[6]…
For I do not change, says The Lord."
⬆ Matthew 21:44

"King Size", The King has left the building.
Elvis Presley's death marked the end of an era in American culture.
"King Size" is a meditation on the intertwined narratives of Elvis and Las Vegas—his transformation into a myth and Las Vegas into the epicenter of the American consumer-entertainment complex.
In Vegas, Elvis embodied the American Dream and was its ultimate victim.
The four-minute, hyper-detailed, image-dense video starring the King in his different incarnations—from young army officer to swaggering movie star to bloated has-been—as well as the dream-city of Vegas itself, which somewhat similarly evolves from a small desert oasis into the neon epicenter of debacle-spectacle.
In keeping with its themes of celebrity-image proliferation and saturation, King Size (2023) is Brambilla’s biggest video collage yet, using 1,000 looped video clips from different movies, including all 33 Elvis films.

welcome to my writebrl!
·͙*̩̩͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩̥͙ ✩ *̩̩̥͙˚̩̥̩̥*̩̩͙‧͙
about meㅡ my name is antonia, though you can call me astrea if you feel so inclined. my pronouns are she/they. i was born in 2004 and have been writing since i was roughly eleven. (we don’t talk about the first things i wrote.) i am currently going through my a levels of english literature, english language and history. i hope to study creative writing at university!
what i writeㅡ primarily i write any type of fantasy, though my favourites are definitely high and dark. i also write a lot of classical, focused heavily on greek mythology.
my wipsㅡ
The King (high fantasy)ㅡ king darius umbra returns home after dealing with the peace talks of the neighbouring queendom, luminos. however, on the return home he encounters far more struggles than he should. he has to deal with the burning of towns and the death of his men to return home to his spouse, eero. (#theking)
Words of Silence (high fantasy, dark fantasy)ㅡ iker rheon is a cursed assassin, it’s that simple. he kills people to get money whilst dealing with the fact he can never, and will never fall in love, unless he wants to kill the person, or, people he loves most. that is until he falls into another realm and falls in love with the thing he hates most: a god. (#wordsofsilence)
Gemstone Eyes (high fantasy)ㅡ sirko has lived too long now, that much, he knows. he is a lunar god that does anything everything vesta asks him toㅡ whether that be killing someone, or raising her children for her. (never mind the fact he falls in love with three of them and marries them behind her back.) (#gemstoneyes)
don’t be scared to say hello!
