Brb, just watching Tobias Menzies read ‘When You Are Old’ for the hundredth time.  As I said to @blasted-heath, in my semi-absence from Tumblr and its Terror gifs I seem to have lost my built-up immunity to his face so I’m now crushing on him all over again, it is A Lot.

[kiev4am]

Reblogging this with the stupidest grin on my face because the awesome @blasted-heath has alerted me to the fact that there exists on Twitter a clip of the poem I took this title from (When You Are Old by W. B. Yeats) being read aloud by TOBIAS. MENZIES.  I’m dead.  Dead and gone.

I know Tumblr can be crabby about links so I won’t post the link, but if you search the #APoemforEveryAutumnDay tag on Twitter you’ll find it.  And it’s a promo for a group reading that’s part of the all-online Edinburgh Book Festival on Sunday, I know what I’m doing with my Sunday afternoon!

Hey, I’m almost too late to the party and I’ve nothing new to offer so I’m just going to reblog the story I posted this time last year for Terror 12 Days of Carnivale, because it’s sappy and wintery and still embarrassingly close to my heart. Happy New Year to all Terrors and others from me and two old married fool explorers.

I’m here this evening specifically to say that I caught a bit of the snooker final the other night, and while musing idly on the fact that I don’t follow snooker at all yet still love the aesthetic of it - the elegance of the table and the game, the hushed audience, the timelessness of it and most of all the way the players dress, the absolutely peak iconic look of black trousers, white shirt and fancy as hell silk-backed waistcoat - I was visited by a most excellent idea, and that idea was this:

Jopson/Little snooker AU.

Imagine it though.  The clothes seem to fit their old-fashioned dress uniform vibe and the venerable history of snooker frees up a whole range of time periods.  Thomas Jopson as the deadpan working-class hero who has wiped out all opposition to meet elite but modest reigning champion Edward Little in the final.  Imagine the quiet of the match, the tension, the murmuring of the commentator, the stares across the table, the ridiculous shots, THE WAISTCOATS.

(Jopson wins.  Then, uh, they both do.)

Going to just go right ahead and tag @arcticelves and @lafiametta because they make the pretty words and gifsets and I have no shame.

Old Guard fans, do you see this glorious Joe & Nicky shirt design by Leandro Fernandez, the artist for the comic book?  I found it on his Instagram here and the direct link is here. I’m in love.

BELARUS NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT 

Across the country they’re blocking Internet connections, protesters came out for a PEACEFUL protest to defend their voice and their right. People are tired of this dictator. Polling stations across the country publicly announced the results of voting to residents of these areas, and almost everywhere Svetlana is the winner. But officially, government representatives declare that 80% of the population SUPPORTS LUKASHENKO. This is not true. Our television and all media resources spread terrible and untrue information, calling the protesters bandits and accusing them of causing injuries to law enforcement officials. In fact, the police and all the armed forces last night used rubber bullets in all the cities of Belarus (this has never been used in the country before), water cannons, stun grenades, and so on. The President himself today brazenly lied and said that the police and others used rubber bullets only once. But according to unofficial data, more than 50 people are in hospitals with wounds, burns and other injuries.

me: wow this idea sounds funny/interesting!!

me, after not writing it perfectly and with ease the first time I try: my energy has depleted and I cannot and will not attempt creation for the next three to five business months

THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY

2.07 //  Öga for Öga

[kiev4am]

i thought the umbrella academy couldn’t get any more relatable in terms of actually understanding how siblings act but then season two comes along with shit like:

“I’m going to BEAT you and not the way you like it” 

“cHiLDrEn iN tHe bAcK” and then klaus just fucking falling over the seat. 

klaus showing up to allison’s house seeing a body and immediately going “are we burning or burying” 

five being So Done with Luther all season but still pushing him out of the way from the bricks falling

“Luther sniffs dad’s underwear” 

“You have had your possession privileges REVOKED”

and then ben going still worth it

everyone mentally rolling their eyes when diego starts talking about how he likes a girl (don’t @ me you know they were)

five pretending not to care about them but actually caring a lot™

the entire part where they’re lifting the tractor. diegos like fucking finally and luthers like we can leave you here would you like that.

diego forgiving vanya in less than a minute

the entire scene with klaus allison and vanya

everyone being like ok i understand why you would want to kill them but i still can’t let you

luthers forced smile at strangers after five yells “IM THE DADDY HERE” literally what i do when one of my brothers does something stupid in public

luther trying to keep the peace between the fives is just a whole ass mood tbh

klaus going over the ‘possession ground rules’ with ben

“klaus you’re so FILTHY” 

Ben and klaus’s little piss fight on the side of the road

“you look like antonio banderas with the long hair”

diego and luther when five shows up covered in blood

but we didn’t kill the comission! yeah that entire conversation especially “Five what did you do?”

[kiev4am]

So I finally watched the old guard and boy, I HAVE FEELS.

What a fantastic movie!! I def hope this’ll get a sequel because we all deserve more of this great world.

I had to sketch Booker first because I can’t get this sad, lonely man out of my head. The ending was such a gut punch- gotta read the comics now to find out whether he’ll be okay ;_;
