Yeah, that really was what sent SO MANY people down the rabbit hole.

[beacarrot]

and i know everything about you, i don't wanna live without you, cause i'm only me when i'm with you 🤍

[hoovesandfloorpaws]

never forget this iconic 2012 interview

the fact that Harry just flat out SAID that i'm-- (also the subtitles are fucking adorable, shoutout to Larry Stylinson Moments on YT)

i cry thinking about the fact that just 2 days prior to this interview Louis had already given Harry a Promise Ring

Best WTF moments:

That bit in the 1973 film where they all form The Last Supper for a quick second and no one comments on it

When the 1973 crowd says "won't you die for me?" in Hosanna and it just FREEZES on Jesus's face

The Swedish cast pushing Jesus into Jerusalem in a shopping cart

The fighter pilots swooping at Judas after Blood Money in 1973. What WAS that. How did they get that.

That is all lol. Every time we watch even a clip of a new production my mother and I spend 2-3 hours discussing how it fits into our rankings, so this could change.

[guccifloralsuits]

Tbh I kind of agree with your Larry post except I don’t think Harry was in love with Louis or that they were actually in love with each other, or that they necessarily did~ anything with each other. I think at the very beginning of 1d harry was infatuated/had a crush on Louis. I do believe Harry is sexually fluid (since he doesn’t label himself it’s the only terms that fits imo) and as someone who was around for the peak 2011-2012 days especially there were some genuine weirdly intense moments that I can remember between them. However like you said larries and tinhats have always taken it way too far

^^^^ I agree w this I didn’t even say they did anything & don’t think it’s our business if they have. Harry *did* appear a bit infatuated in some of the early days, so the crush thing is plausible. But it just as well could have been platonic the full way through, & It’s all well over and passed. Honestly…I wish they could be supportive of each other (the way like. Harry & Niall are, or any of them are nowadays) in public without people making it weird

[tellmissyou28]

Well, I'm going to think, saying how I think I see Larry, I don't want people to criticize me because I truly enforce doing this, I don't want anyone saying that nothing I say is false, it's just my point of view and please, if you don't like Larry don't read and thank you.....

well let's start everything starts in 2010 in my opinion I think the one who was in love was Louis and Harry still not well why I believe this you don't know if you remember him. diary video in which Niall says that a fan tried to put Harry's cell phone in to make him see him the next day, well Louis gets jealous but what I notice is that Harry is calm but calm and calm because Louis would manage to make Harry fall in love with him in that same year 2010 since later we had this beautiful moment

Yes, as we can see, Harry was nervous and more so because of the kiss that Louis gives him in the original video, he tells him that he is very cute. I firmly believe that Louis fell in love with Harry first and managed to win him over, since later Harry would do many things for him.

We went to 2011 this year I love it because Harry and Louis were inseperable although Louis had a girlfriend so remember that Louis got married in 2011 and that's when the complications would start since there were surely fights I'm not saying it's just that it can happen that out of jealousy or ect. We all remember the One Direction interview that was done in Dallas in which Louis says that many fans believe that he and Harry are dating. Harry's reaction is not a reaction like a friend and we all know that by that point Louis is supposedly already They didn't like those rumors and they also had to remember that he had a girlfriend and that it bothered him, supposedly obvious, then it seemed like this

Everyone, absolutely everyone, remembers that, even those who don't believe in Larry, well, this tweet is very important since 2012 would come later, the hard times.

Ok, that's my point of view, I repeat, I don't want you to get angry with me, please. ;) This is the chronology from 2010 to 2011, I didn't put much information because it was going to take much longer to upload, sorry next time I'm going to upload it with more information, seriously, I promise, I'll repeat this point of view, don't get angry ;)

[twoghostslarrie]

i kind of wanna make a pinned post??? like a little "about me"

timi, 28 years old, i work a 9-5 job in the healthcare field

1d fan since august 2011

blog opened in april 2012 and i started off as a zayn blog

in 2014 i ventured into the 5sos fandom

2015 onwards i was into kpop and then mainly bts

kept up with 1d's solos (mostly harry and zayn's because they were my favorite) but nothing more than that

since november 2024 i am Back and this time.... Larry lol

did i ship larry during my 1d fandom days? a little... but i never really believed they were in a relationship. i knew either one or both of them were probably gay and may come out in the future but not much else. it's so much fun to look back on old interviews now and certain moments have new meaning to them??? (before i just thought they were super cheeky and joked around a lot)

what made me ship larry? discovering the song All Along.... jaw on the floor i tell you

[alarrytale]

I always find it both irritating and kind of amazing that louis' image seems to work for some people. The idea that this flamboyant theater kid has fooled so many people makes me giggle because this rough, laddy boy image has been his greatest part ever. This is a boy who openly describes himself as soft and flamboyant in 2012, and while he doesn't do it openly anymore all we have to do is see him drunk and the flamboyance comes back, in his reactions, his gesturing and dancing. The softness we see as well, all the time. From how he interacts with his family and any young fans, even conchobar. To his love of flowers and making floral arrangements which we have seen in interviews in like 2017 for loose women and when fans give him daffodils, which we know are his favorite.

While I know images are meant to work effectively make people see louis as a laddy boy but he's been cracking it since it's installment. He was cracking the facade during 1D and continously does so.

I also remember his love for interior design too where Harry in the same house as louis 2017 or 2018 loose women interview basically stated that he didn't design the interior but it was his house, my inferences being it was louis. I also remember older Larry moments and receipts talking about louis and Harry going to private museum/gallery showings and buying boxes at theater showings but those are from wayback.

Louis image has been pretty good in hiding him but it was cracked long ago and keeps being cracked. We don't really know what he's up to on breaks, he's gone with the wind and we only see him in pubs when we are supposed to see him.

I love you, anon! Hard same! I don't understand how they're fooled either, but maybe they don't know the more carefree, less restricted and to me at least more real Louis we got to see in the earlier 1d years? This dude used to make the other 1d boys wait while he got pedicures. He follows a handfull of interior design igs. He used to buy Harry art for his birthdays or Christmas. He's into vintage, we knew that before, but now we only get to see it through his clothing. He's so much more than his image and yes it's irritating when you see fans or others buying into it, or even worse when you see people liking his current image. Couldn’t be me.

"Whenever I think of Larry Johnson, I am always struck by the amount of time he dedicated to helping others have a good time. He was always doing things for other people. In his work for me, he made sure that everything was ready for me to contribute when I arrived on the scene. Materials were lined up. People were ready. Larry was always looking out for everyone - except for Larry."

"He had more women in more places than anyone I know. They all loved him dearly and they all understood that there were others. This was not totally comfortable for him, but he would juggle and balance it like a magician... When we first met, Larry was with Jeanne Field. "Miss field," as Larry use to call her, was a jewel of a person and still is today. We were all working on Journey Through the Past and having a big old time. Miss Field was doing production. Larry had us down in Ashville, North Carolina, interviewing an old black couple, Sandie and Levie, who were a part of his early life. They were recalling the slave days, and Larry was hanging on every word. The footage was beautiful. We have not used it yet. I'm sure it will hold some great meaning for me now. It was like that. Larry did things and much later you would discover why. He often joked about being a redneck cracker. He carried a white kerchief and dabbed the sweat on his forehead, playing part of a gracious southern gentleman, tipping his hat to lady passers-by. I am sure he is doing the same in heaven, or something a lot like heaven."

"Larry's great talent in filmmaking was partly his ability to get emotions from the scene in the editing room. His touch would bring out the soul and magic. He did an edit on the bonfire scene at Puyre in Human Highway that he cut to my song 'Goin Back'. It was magical to me. I think it is the turning point in Human Highway, where you forget about everything else and become in the moment with the counterculture, the hippies, the artists, the Indians. Everything in the film revolves around that scene to me. That was Larry. He went into the editing room one day and came out with that. Sheer brilliance. On top of that, he was so positive and energized, keeping everyone on their toes and having fun. His energy was contagious."

"Traveling long distances in big cars is one of my favourite pastimes. There is really nothing that compares to the road. All of my days working with Lincvolt have been focused on the day when I would just get in the car and take off. Larry and I use to talk about that all the time. Of course I am sad that's not going to happen now, but I will do it with Ben Johnson. We will both do it for ourselves, but also because we wanted it so much for Larry. He will be with us every mile."

"I wish Larry Johnson was still around so we could continue our life's work together. I guess that's why they call it 'life's work'."

Neil Young on Larry Johnson, from his book 'Waging Heavy Peace (2012)

[louisisalarrie]

new twitter fans would have not survive that video of Harry, Louis and Eleanor in a bacony where Louis is with Harry and goes to give a peck to Eleanor while Harry watched lol that was peak drama in 2012 and I think the moment when the fandom really split in antis vs larries.

omg the one where it looks like E tells Louis to go over and stand with Harry because that was a WILD time hahahahah and they absolutely wouldn’t have survived it. it was definitely a breaking point 100%

[sukisukidaysook]

Just watched the Ace Attorney 2012 movie and there was. So much

I LIKED THE MOVIE I think it did really well with what it was trying to do with DL-6 and Turnabout Goodbyes. I found some of the changes to that case Strange but I still think they told the story really well, and all the foreshadowing for the case throughout the movie and the way they tied everything together from the beginning (even STARTING the movie with Misty channeling Gregory)…. MVK’s breakdown… yeah that movie fucks.

However I absolutely WILL stay stuck on the changes to Redd White. They didn’t. Need to do that 😭😭😭

ALSO! bro at the very end there’s a Jammin’ Ninja mention AND a Matt Engarde cameo. So extra points for that specifically. Though I have no idea what Matt is on trial for 😭 it’s just kinda funny to me bc it doesn’t look like it’s supposed to be Farewell this is a separate thing. More points for giving Larry more insane character moments but also deducting points for the fact that Maya did not do shit in that movie, and also for the fact that April May was cut out entirely (women losses). Are we understanding my system here

[harrylights]

maybe now is the time to say smth like this idk

i’ve been off/on in the 1d/larrie fandom since 2012. since dec of last year I’ve been more invested bc last year was filled with grief, heartbreak, betrayal, depression, and lots of dark shit, and I needed to find a space of positivity and creativity that was the least toxic as possible. and even at the beginning of this year, I didn’t put myself out there much or talk to people bc I was in a major depressive episode and was struggling a lot.

but you know what helped? (apart from therapy lol) HAVING FOUND A COMMUNITY OF LOVELY, TALENTED FUCKING PEOPLE WHO ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT THE SAME THINGS AS ME. WHO LAUGH AT THE SAME ONE DIRECTION FUNNY MOMENTS COMPILATIONS. WHO UNDERSTAND THE WILD FUCKING RIDE THAT ONE DIRECTION WAS AND CONTINUES TO BE W THE BOYS SOLO CAREERS. WHO POUR THEIR HEARTS INTO FICS. WHO PUT THEIR CREATIVE ENERGY INTO FANART. WHO LOVE AND LOVE AND LOVE AND LOVE

people who support each other and love each other and the content/creators we’re supporting bc we share the same experience of the impact those things have had on our lives.

and you know what? I’m going through smth even harder than anything I dealt w last year. and you know what’s helping me get through all of it? YOU GUYS. sure, you can call it an escape, sometimes it is, but more than anything it is a space where I feel seen and supported and loved in ways that my brain still grapples with bc you are all so sweet and genuine and kind and caring and talented and it honestly baffles me sometimes. i love you. genuinely. all of you. THANK YOU for existing and creating and sharing and supporting. you make this world better by being in it and I seriously do not even want to think about what kind of mental state Id be in if it WASNT FOR YALL ❤️❤️❤️

Nunya it’s zoomer Huey, so as you know that Elmo was choked by Larry David on live tv.

Now I hearing that Elmo is a black 3 and half year old child

Now I know Sesame Street was created mostly as a way for inner cities kids can get knowledge as the places their in several lack the resources to let them to learn

Jeez almost like most cities planners never thought about kids and such

But anyways can you look up the idea that Elmo is meant to represent a black boy? Of course Elmo represents all kids now. But I find it interesting as that group of kids are often forgotten.

Perhaps I’m sound weird as I just got off my shift as I wrote this

You're fine I saw that whole thing.

I don't believe that Elmo was put in as a substitute for a black kid, just on the basis that it's Sesame Street and they don't do things like that, or they didn't.

No dancing around things there, the first lesson on death I had was Big Bird bringing a picture he'd drawn of Mr Hooper to him to show him, but Mr Hooper had died.

And Sesame Street handled that in a honest and age appropriate way that made death real but not scary, so if they'd wanted to introduce a black kid Muppet they'd make em a black kid.

All that and I remember Elmo from when I was a kid, before he became "ELMO" and there was nothing like that there either to my memory.

And we had human performers of all kinds even then, back when everyone was supposed to be wanting to treat everyone equally regardless of external factors, which apparently is racist now.

I could be wrong though, so I'll look and regardless of what I see I'm leaving that top bit.

Go easy first.

Elmo Monster is a red Muppet character on the children's television show Sesame Street.[3] A furry red monster who speaks in a high-pitched falsetto voice and frequently refers to himself in the third person, he hosts the last full five-minute segment (fifteen minutes prior to 2017) on Sesame Street, "Elmo's World", which is aimed at toddlers. He was most often puppeteered by Kevin Clash, but since his resignation in late 2012, he has been puppeteered by Ryan Dillon.

However, in 1985, Hunt was so frustrated with the puppet, he squeezed it and threw it at Kevin Clash, who then performed Elmo. Clash said that Elmo should be a character who is kind and loving. Sans says of Clash, "one day in 1985, Kevin Clash, a talented puppeteer, raised him up and brought energy and life into Elmo and from that day forward we would all write for Elmo." Modern Elmo debuted with the Season 17 premiere of Sesame Street, episode 2096 (first aired November 18, 1985, following the release of the Sesame Street film Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird). In the episode, Big Bird is tired of the adults refusing to believe him about Snuffy, so he decides to arrange for them to come to his nest and meet Snuffy, and Elmo offers to help. Snuffy returns, then tells Elmo he had better go home and brush his fur to prepare for the grown-ups' arrival, but Elmo holds on to his snuffle so he cannot go; as such, the adults meet Snuffy for the first time ever. Clash cites a moment later in season 17 (from Episode 2215 in which Elmo packs for an imaginary vacation) as the moment when he "found his voice" as Elmo, and by 1987, he became added to various episodes and product lines. __________________

There's lots more but nothing to indicate he was supposed to be any kind of stand in for a black child, people may be projecting because the guy playing him was a black dude, but didn't start that way so not looking good for that theory.

Before moving on, we'll get to that elephant in the room about the guy that does the voice.

Since this is the dude doing it now, and there would be hell to pay somewhere if he was actually supposed to be black. _______________

Not gonna vouch for facts DOT net, but with a URL like that I think it's likely they're going to know what they're talking about even if it is obviously a clickbait site.

OOP maybe this is something

That's Roosevelt Franklin, not Elmo. So there's another nope.

But as I've said if Sesame Street wanted a black character they wouldn't have used a red monster.

They'd have made a black human(ish) Muppet. _____________

Sesame Street was created so there could be a quality educational program for kids of all walks of life, it was set where it was set for reasons I don't know but could look up if I felt like it, but likely convenience since that's a easy enough place to see everything that's there with all the shops and stands and what not, gotta be in a urban area for that to work.

Again I could be wrong, but either way.

Elmo isn't black and wasn't meant to be seen as a stand in for a black kid to the best of my knowledge, which now includes the stuff here as well as about 8 other sites I skimmed through.

I think people might be trying to make something bigger than a joke out of a Jewish man having a laugh by attacking a Muppet, wonder if there's anything going on in the world that might be generating that kind of need to misdirect people and make something like that out to be something it's not. ______________________

And finally, I gotta say thank you Elmo.

When you sent that tweet out there you weren't expecting to get the level of truth and honesty you got, but you and the rest of the gang really stepped it up and brought the conversation front in center.

In the most absurd way I can think of.

And even us old's are gonna get some good out of it by revisiting our friends at Sesame Street I think.

[dearweirdme]

Hi! You mentioned that you were a Larry but don't believe that they are together now but still think they were at some point.

I would like to ask you, when you realized that you didn't believe they were still together, did you review their interactions and thought that maybe they were not together longer than you noticed before? For example, if in 2015 you stoped believing they were together, when you looked back you realized that maybe they were not together since 2012 or something like this, yk?

I'm asking you this because I think it's easier to notice things in retrospect other than when they are happening because sometimes, we need more time to process things and get some perspective and I wonder if we would be able to notice if tkk broke up but still friends.

Hi anon!

Mmm, it's really difficult to compare Louis and Harry with Tae and Jk. Except for them being two members in huge boyband who are suspected to be in a relationship, there's not much that I would say is the same. They are fastly different in characters, their cultures differ a lot, and the way they took to closeting is imo also very different.

I have no clear view of when I think Louis and Harry separated. I think I started having doubts like a year and a half ago. Slowly it just kinda sunk in that it was mostly fandom speculations and not actually something coming from H and L (a lot of speculation about them signaling to fandom basically, which wasn't something I really took to back then as wel). What's difficult about the L and H situation is that they have only been seen together publicly once after 1D split. So it quickly becomes a matter of fandom having to reach and put together snippets of things they think they have understood. At times there still were very strong clues though, like shared clothing. But that all kinda vanished, and imo Louis really started pushing for Larries to go away. Pairing that with a real lack of moments in which I felt it possible that they were spending any time together. I came to the conclusion that I no longer think they were together. When you actually see people interact, you can tell by the way they respond to each other how their bond is. And I absolutely believe Louis and Harry were once in love. There's many that still do.

I think it will absolutely be noticable if Tae and Jk break up. I think (no matter how friendly a breakup is... having just been through one myself in the last year) the way you interact with your ex will change. So I don't believe they have broken up recently (and no, also not when they were supposedly drifting apart). If by any chance they breakup while enlisted I think we will catch up on it pretty soon when they return as BTS.

Movie Analysis and Review: "The Dictator" (2012)

“The Dictator,” directed by Larry Charles and written by Sacha Baron Cohen, Alec Berg, David Mandel, and Jeff Schaffer, presents a satirical take on despotic rule, political maneuverings, and the clash of ideologies. Starring Sacha Baron Cohen as Admiral General Aladeen, the film blends crude humor with moments of political insight, creating a unique comedic experience. Synopsis:The film follows…
