Delibird Delivery..? Well, really, it's more a Banette dressed as a Delibird that Teleports in with wrapped gifts. before vanishing back off again, like one of Santa's oddly spooky helpers, she pets as many Zorua as possible. In the package is a hilariously horrid holiday sweater. Patterned over the sweater is an open cardigan, but 'under' the cardigan is a hairy chest with 'I'M THE GIFT' tattooed over it. The 'cardigan' has a gaudey wrapping-paper like pattern, and fabric gift bows are sewn on.

Along with it is a seemingly homemade three-pack of decent-to-comically-bad horror films. The first is called Violent Past, and it's about a person having to battle the angry spirit of their deceased Pokemon. The second is called Shadows Lurking, about small town residents getting picked off by a very overexaggerated version of the Shadow Triad. The third is THE WERECANROC, about a Lycanroc werewolf trying to prove itself to its pack in an expectedly bloody fashion. The package isn't signed and there's no card in sight, but hopefully the Santa should be obvious.

Oh, truth and ideals. Basil. I asked for the worst holiday sweater you could find and you fucking DELIVERED. I think I’m set on ugly sweater competitions for the next decade now. Or honestly, the rest of my life. I’m going to pull this baby out twenty years from now and absolutely traumatize whatever kids and/or great niblings I have with this thing. It’ll be glorious. They’ll talk about “The Sweater” in hushed tones every holiday season for a month before each gathering. I can see this very clearly. I hope you do too.

Anyways, thanks for the movies! I’ll have to pause my Pawmark movie marathon so Amadeus can watch ‘em. …I should ask, was there any… intent… with the way you chose these? I mean, duh, a werelyc movie’s perfect! And I can talk to spirits and everything. So the second one is… well, I guess it’s probably just because illusions and all that. Yeah! Happy Delibird Day! Jupetta seems to enjoy delivery duty.

IT WAS ERIC AFTER ALL!!!! I'm so glad we got to meet him (before Vil snaps him away with those Infinity Gauntlets) (can't wait to see what happens when we get the matching Infinity Tiara to go with them, there will be no survivors)

(sorry to be so slow/rough lately, just got a lot of stuff on the ol' brain at the moment! alas, if only I could spend all my time drawing incredibly stupid characters I mean I do but)

‼️Transformers One spoilers‼️

"Oh but why was Optimus okay with Bee killing all those guys in the fight but not okay with Megatron killing Sentinel? He's so hypocritical!"

No, no he's not. It's about the context and situation.

Optimus was okay with Bee killing those bots during the fight because they were fighting and posed an active threat to their lives. Optimus was against Megatron killing Sentinel because they weren't in danger, and the battle had already been won. They had exposed Sentinel's crimes and deception to all of Iacon and destroyed his rule over Cybertron.

Remember, Optimus uses the word "execution" because that's what killing Sentinel was. It wasn't to save anyone or keep themselves safe. It was to send a bloody message of violent vengeance against those who wrong Megatron. That's why Optimus didn't want him to kill Sentinel and why Megatron killing Sentinel was his point of no return.

Jeremy and the minorities he loves to represent and apparently was born to

This post by @freedelusionshere cracked open a pattern that was right there in front of me for a while now and I hadn't really been paying attention to:

Jeremy Allen White's career choices

I won't go over every single role he ever played but overall his taste is quite distinctive and particular, he's into the marginalized, the anti-heroes, and the minorities.

He's not afraid of having to dive deep into his dark side to play addicts, disabled, depressed, suicidal, and traumatized human beings who struggle with mental health issues and don't always win their battles or are elegant about it.

His most famous roles are Lip Gallagher and Carmy Berzatto

Both addicts, the product of a traumatic upbringing with abusive parents and absent parental figures, with older siblings who played roles in his characters' lives that they shouldn't have due to the dysfunctional family dynamic they lived in.

He also played Kerry Von Erich, who lost his battle with addiction and a part of his leg as well and whose whole family was part of the problem, no matter how much they loved him. Kerry Von Erich was a fatal victim of his toxic environment and upbringing.

More about Carmy and Kerry's parallels here:

In Cornflower (short-film) Jeremy played the big half-brother of this little girl whose mother killed herself and he was in charge of "protecting" his baby sister from the news and sending her away

He's the Boss, the chef, the champ, the protector in his own fucked up way, but not really because he plays the shadow aspects of all those characters, otherwise, he's just not interested.

Jeremy once said (for GQ magazine) that if he played the romantic lead in a rom-com it would also have to be very sad.

And now, when he steps into The Boss' shoes leather jacket he doesn't play the idol, the icon, but one of his darkest moments.

Deliver me from nowhere

The movie tells The Boss' story during a time of his life that he described himself as dark and challenging, filled with isolation and loneliness.

I read Warren Zanes' novel a few months ago when I found out that JAW had been cast as the lead and LOVED IT. He also wrote Tom Petty's bio, which I haven't read yet (but definitely will because I love Petty) and served as VP of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, back when I still gave a fuck about it.

Zanes' Deliver Me from Nowhere captures that feeling completely. No wonder JAW felt compelled to play that part.

Nebraska, Springsteen's album (1982) was his 6th studio album and followed the widely successful and critically acclaimed album: The River and it was off-beat compared to its predecessors because it contained darker and more solemn lyrics but most importantly because The Boss lived up to his nickname and fought his Record label at the time (Columbia Records) refusing to tour to promote it. As a result the album only reached number 3 in both USA and the UK.

Bruce was going through a lot and having a hard time coping with fame and struggling to balance his personal life with his career, re-defining what the concept of "success" meant for him.

The book goes over that struggle and inner turmoil, it says it got to the point where the album was recorded by a Springsteen who literally couldn't get outta bed to do it. It was recorded in his bedroom.

The author says:

"Nebraska is the recording that matters the most in Bruce Springsteen's career. But not because of the hits it contains or it's renowned or because of its generation of young people played it on repeat while they searched for themselves in bedroom mirrors. It needs a different measure. Springsteen made the record when he was the object of tremendous expectations. (...) They were waiting for Born in the USA and that's not what they got, the truth was that Springsteen was a little lost."

Again, no wonder JAW got cast for this role.

I wish nothing but the best for him and I expect nothing but the best from his performance. I'm sure that it must be terrifying for him having to sing for the first time but the way I see it only 2 outcomes can come outta that: either he rocks or he's dubbed by The Boss himself who rocks even harder, so I'm cool.

This is the beast JAW has to tame (And make it relatable, moving, and hopefully award-winning):

The album's reverb-laden vocals and mood combined with dark lyrical content have been described by music critic William Ruhlmann as "one of the most challenging albums ever released by a major star on a major record label"

I'm positive he can do it and I'll be there, watching and crying as he does.

the best stage musical to movie adaptation ever done was Hairspray (2007) and every other movie musical adaptation is trying (and usually failing) to recreate it's quality and successes

[do-you-know-this-adhd-character]

Do you know this (noncanon) ADHD character?

Evidence below the cut!

There's a lot going on. I don't know where to start. Impulsivity, emotional dysregulation, hyperfixating, distractibility, infodumping (related to excessive talking), hyperactivity (present mostly throughout excessive talking(throughout the show, ever since his introduction actually, he's been said to blabber and talk a LOT, for longer periods of times)), sensitivity to surroundings (sensory issues?)(Specifically to noise), are all traits he presents throughout the whole show.

I just think Toei gives Vegeta a lot of shit for a guy who's maintained his rank within the top ten most powerful beings in the mortal realm since he was like five years old.

been seeing old fans of the graphic novel complaining about goldenloin's new design compared to the old with pictures of the comics' design side by side with the movie's calling the new one terrible

i promise you can miss the long hair without dismissing the new design as a whole

especially considering the efforts at diversity in the movie
