if you had told me one month ago that ed and stede were going to reunite in a scene where stede is clenching ed’s hand and begging for him to wake up and ed is dreaming about stede being a mermaid come to rescue him, all while kate bush is playing in the background, i would have stabbed you.

It’s always so funny to me when someone can’t tell the difference between an actor who’s over the top and an actor who is doing an intentionally over the top performance. The former can be super aggravating, I get it—but the latter can be so goddamn effective. Especially when you know the actor already, know they’re fully capable of giving normal human facial expressions and chill line deliveries. And they’re out here doing The Absolute Most all of a sudden? It’s for a reason, dude. It’s almost always for a reason. And once you can see past the camp on the surface, it’s so much fun digging in to what emotions the character is actually hiding.

#this is mainly about servant (and to a lesser degree YJ) #like Ambrose in servant is (pardon me) serving SUCH a chaotic performance #but having known her for decades I know full well that’s on purpose #Dorothy is over the top because she HAS to be. because she’s built walls so high around her own grief that the denial comes out in Crazy #and she fully thinks she’s the only one paying attention. the only sane one in the room. #you get glimpses of her being ‘normal’ in flashbacks #still a little Much. still a product of wealth and expectation. detached from reality to a degree. #but the character she becomes after the tragedy is. A Character. #it’s not the woman she was before. she bricked that woman up. she’s taken her performance from television and made a baby blanket out of it #it’s so. so intentional. #and you sort of get a similar thing going with Hewson in early eps of YJ #totally different starting block. Van doesn’t start out traumatized. but she does start out Big #she’s loud she’s silly she’s being intentionally wacky to get laughs out of people #and some of it comes off a little cringe. because it’s a kid playing a role #this is how you like me. I’m gay. I’m butch. I’m hiding. #if I’m a jester you’ll see what I want you to and nothing more. that’s the plan. it’s working. don’t look at the goalie. #not as a person. #but as the show goes on (or as she’s spending time with taissa) she slows down some. quiets. she’s snarkier. holding tension differently. #Hewson starts the performance at an 11 so they can really delve into who Van becomes when the mask is off #when there’s no point in playing the class clown #when it’s like. ah yeah. here’s the kid who grew up too fast. #here’s the kid who’s scared to death. and angry. and willing to fight to live. #it’s not an overacting thing. it’s VAN overacting to keep her secrets #watch the face so you miss what the hands are doing #actors man. actors are fucking cool. storytelling is fucking cool. #deconstructing the illusion is my favorite thing #(anyway still watching servant and it’s still really. Something Else.)

Cozytober - Day 25 - Sunflowers

#Cozytober #Margot's RF Art #Rune Factory Frontier #RF Frontier #RFF #The internet isn't down today so I can submit at a normal time yay!! #I legit had a relaxing time painting this. I was starting to feel burned out yesterday- happens when you draw every day. #when some don't turn out like you liked. Happens with all art. Especially when you were ill while drawing some. #and you have to return to work after not being able to BREATHE. Physical burnout too. #But. Today. #Today I felt so relaxed and nice. Had nice social moments from across my life that helped kick burnout/self worth in the face #Especially when 3 different friends reach out- randomly- within a half hour of one another. As if they knew you needed it #Feels very nice to be reminded you're loved (and you out there- you are.) #And what else I love- Anette. A woman who loves early mornings and fruit after my own heart #If I'd played Frontier before discovering 1 Anette might be the other otp half. As it stands I just adore HER & love drawing her every year #Rune Factory Anette #RF Anette #While I had run out of prep sketches I can snag 2 or so from unfinished sketches from earlier this year for this week #Let's see if it helps--

Rosemary Leach stars as socialite Marion Grove, the latest target of Ray Barrett's sinister gold-digger, in Gideon's Way: The Lady-Killer (1.6, ITC, 1965)

#fave spotting #rosemary leach #gideon's way #the power game #susan weldon #itc #the lady killer #1965 #classic tv #rosemary wouldn't start her run on The Power Game until the end of '65‚ where she'd be playing a very different type of character #to the naive‚ awkward innocent she is here. the characters do have something in common; they're both lonely‚ an odd sort of typecasting #that Rosemary nevertheless seemed to fall into (see similar contemporaneous roles in Galton and Simpson's Comedy Playhouse or various #single plays in drama anthologies) before later regular work in maternal guest spots. perhaps it was her looks? her character here is #undoubtedly meant to stir some kind of plain jane sympathy‚ regardless of Rosemary's actual attractiveness (I'm putting this awkwardly; #personally i think she was an attractive woman but there's no denying the intention here‚ as her character is repeatedly implicitly #contrasted with Justine Lord's glamorous model) #then again her casting in TPG is as the desirable other woman (but then again again‚ who would stray from Barbara Murray irl??)

also mom was running down some of the drama she’s been experiencing for years in her high school wechat group, and it is… astounding how terrible her self-proclaimed rival is at social chess. well first of all, they didn’t even know each other in high school? they weren’t in the same class? mom says they never talked before so she doesn’t know why this other woman is so obsessed with her, but this woman has been going to all of mom’s close friends and sending messages just slandering mom’s character and talking about how mom’s obsessed with attention and a terrible person and whatever ANYWAY. oh, warning for death, but like, a while ago one of mom’s close friends had a husband who passed, and this lady offered mom’s friend condolences, and mom’s friend was like ? I don’t know this person? and a little bit after this lady asked mom’s friend to have lunch and this lady was like ‘oh you shouldn’t be friends with that woman’ blah blah and it’s just. HER HUSBAND DIED????? YOU’RE TRASHING THIS WOMAN’S FRIEND TO HER FACE AFTER HER HUSBAND DIED???? AND SHE DOESN’T KNOW YOU???? AND HER HUSBAND *JUST* DIED????? and she keeps doing this too, like, going to mom’s close friends and trying to get them against mom but since they’re *mom’s close friends* they just send screenshots of the convo to mom and go like ‘hey so this happened’. she even, like, had a dinner or something with people and made them swear to never talk to mom ever again (one of the people there immediately messaged mom with a picture of everyone there and A DIFFERENT guy had lunch with mom on a trip to the US) (mom directly confronted him like ‘so what about the promise to never speak to me again’) (LMAO???) anyway this lady’s high school ex is apparently one of the heads of the organizers for the high school group (?) and mom had a dinner with him a while ago so she’s apparently holding onto a photo of them meeting up in case she, and I quote, “wants to toss a bomb into the groupchat”

#my ramblings #I actually don’t know if this is the same woman who just randomly started attacking dad #anyway another way she was bad at social chess #was one of mom’s friends does poetry #and I think one of them references mom’s record at the high jump #I think because after she graduated they stopped doing high jump #so Mom Has The Record Forever #but anyway she apparently messages him like ‘how could you write that it hurt my feelings so so bad’ #‘if I ever did anything to hurt you can’t we work it out’ etc #and he was SO pissed he messaged mom immediately #I think a lot of mom’s friends tend to either wait a while or wait until they’re in person to bring it up #but he was just SO mad #anyway SHE’S SOOOOO BAD AT SOCIAL CHESS SHE’S REALLY REALLY BAD AT IT #WHY PLAY AGAINST A LOSING GAME????? #well we’ll probably never know why this woman’s insanely jealous over mom #death ment /// #long post #well more like a text wall but w/e

#i haven't played bg3 for like 5 days or so because i am super busy and my brain decided that's ain't going to work and it NEEDS bg3 content #even if it is of its own production - saw bg3 related dream last night help 😭😭😭 #i don't remember much except that there was a cutscene (i am both in it AND out if it makes sense in weird dream logic) #and after the cutscene shadowheart?? i'm not even sure it was entirely her but it was a woman who without prompt kisses my character 👀 #i would have said it was a win if gale wasn't standing right there and saw that and just as i (not my character 🤡) walked over to him to #explain it was a misunderstanding and that i (or we?? idk man dream logic 😹) actually love HIM #he started running away from me 😭😭😭 because he was so upset (this was SO out of character for him i'm bfmffj) #and binch was running fast as hell too i barely maanged to catch up and start explaining WHEN #the dream rewinded (which was essentially a save reload before the scene im 😭💀) #and the kiss scene played out again but this time it was as if we were just friends with gale and he just stand there like 👁👄👁 #i still can't understand if it was shadowheart or like someone not even from bg3 😭 #ANYWAYS good morning eveyone 💀👋 #tbd

i think the reason why i never lost my shit too much over bad bsd manga to anime adapting is because im a comics wanda stan . like the massacred my girl so fucking bad in the movies . whitewashed her , ruined her character , fucked her over in the comics too because they wanted to make it closer to the movies like they actually they deserve death for that .

#ramblings #like why the fuck did they make her work for nazis i think the russo brothers deserve death theyre so vile #like what part of them thought THAT was a good idea . her and her brother are romani and jewish like what the fuck #also FUCK that nasty woman playing her god bless #not mentioning her racist ass in the tags cause im never starting that discourse again but dear god

I hate that everyday I feel like I did nothing. Even when I do something I forget and it's like wow 9pm and you didn't do anything but sit in bed for three days😕

I finally filled the stupid fireplace that did nothing but let in humidity

I PPE'd up to trash all the junk that's been rotting and molding in the backyard for months with no end in sight. No pink eye this time.

And! I finally finished a dream project. Custom fitted sewing cabinet FLUSH sewing experience. Real sewheads know I'm living large

#also started a spreadsheet of costs I've been eating rather than deal with this woman since she wants to play stupid #alternative from hand to scrawny neck. thank me. #my work

Reading through my old Woman of Truth stuff, and by far the funniest joke is that for most of Steve's sections of the first episode, there's a lot of fuss being made about this top-of-the-line stealth jet, fresh from Ferris Aircraft, cost the US millions, potentially billions of dollars, full of advanced technology...

...And after Steve crashes it on Themyscira, in the High Council chambers, Io calls it 'horrifically primitive'. 'I mean, it still uses combustion engines, for Hestia's sake! Do they still not have anti-grav?'

#wonder woman #woman of truth #io the blacksmith #I am considering - considering - re-starting this idea #I mean I'd be doing some work to rewrite what I have written #because Historia of the Amazons and more of Scion 2e have come out since the original idea #and ideally I'd want to reflect more on them #(particularly playing the very fun game 'How many plots from the first Rucka run can I fit into the Apotheosis steps from 2e Demigod?') #but yes it is still really funny that the Amazons aren't ignorant of the technologies of Patriarch's World because Bronze-Age #they're that one XKCD comic #'We must consider that the people of Patriarch's World are less advanced than us. They probably only have rudimentary anti-grav.' #'And climate control?' 'Well yes obviously climate control.'

I suppose if I want to Make Orion I have to figure out the, like, actual WoL she's helping but also. I am considering "Orion dedicated herself to becoming a mysterious mentor/assistant to the hero and then the 'real' hero just fucking dies and she's left along." Unsure how that would work w the Azem rock tho

#I am also considering- what if Elidibus is that one that saved her from her suicide attempt #bc he wanted a backup Mitron and also figured he could use her and. so on. #so she's at first working for the ascians- or at least for elidibus- in his 'control the opposition' play #but I don't think she like. knows exactly thats whats happening #she thinks its more of a. other ascians are causing trouble but elidibus is secretly helping the heroic side from the shadows #or something like that #maybe a thing of like....elidibus saved her life and gave her a Purpose and that's what she remembers #but hydaelyn did give her a vision- a brief glimpse-of meteion #and what gave her the strength to keep going was wanting to help this other hurting child #but she barely remembers that #like I said. extemely utena #anyways what I am getting at is Orion is very close to Urianger #love the idea of a kid assigned (mostly by herself) the role of Mysterious Anime Maiden actually like #making connections. making friends. letting herself be human #getting stuck as the most awkward third wheel known to man or gods #....none of this tag musing has helped me decide what to do about the Azemlet associated w her #I think if they do stick around they start out very reluctant scumbag ty- #hey what if Orion and Liamaine #the twins cannot be Mysterious Children Who Know Too Much to a woman who changed their diapers #(like once maybe) #so Orion has to slide in here #hmmmmmmmmmmm #Liamaine Leveilleur #Orion Strand #I do think if they are together Liamiane can't start as bad tho. as funny as that would be #or she does and Orion is Forced To Healer #(hmmm I'd wanna do astro for her but if she has to start...she can always switch come heavensward she def would ic)
