All About E

More self-torture. I don’t know why I do this.

Oh wait.

Yes I do.

It’s because the person I’m writing about is being praised and supported when she shouldn’t be. Shall we begin?

-

Elta Danneel Graul was born in Lafayette, Louisiana, and raised in the small town of Eunice. Her father, Edward, is a practicing ophthalmologist, and her mother, Deborah, is an interior designer. She was named after her great-grandmother. Legally her name is still Elta, but she professionally and personally goes by Danneel. Supposedly she was given the middle name, Danneel, after a street in New Orleans.

She moved to Los Angeles because, according to her, she knew she wanted to live in California. She moved there and lucked out with modeling. How did she luck out? Her now-ex-boyfriend, Riley Smith. His mother was a modeling agent in Chicago. She flew home with him for Thanksgiving and his mother made the phone call with the agency.

(How did Elta afford to live in Los Angeles without much work? Her parents paid her way, so she basically lived in an apartment on her own, didn’t share with anyone, and got to be lazy.)

Supposedly Riley’s mother also helped Elta with a nose job and breast implants (the first time around).

Elta liked to claim she worked and supported herself, but her beginning modeling jobs didn’t pay very well. She also didn’t get nearly as much work, so her parents supported her.

Elta proceeded to segue into television with the help of Riley to do auditions. She had a few guest spots on MadTV, Amanda Bynes’ What I Like About You. Then she had the audition with One Life To Live.

Because One Life To Live was filmed in New York, Elta had to move there. Again… her parents helped, because a starting actress on a soap did not pay well. She also had bit parts in Love House.

Eventually One Life To Live ended and Elta got guest spots on One Tree Hill, Joey, JAG, Charmed. Supposedly it was because she did well in auditions, but those rumors of her doing the casting couch with Mark Schwan persist.

After One Tree Hill, she had more guest spots on How I Met Your Mother, NCIS, and other shows.

She appeared in a few small roles in movies as well.

Supposedly, Elta is skilled in gymnastics, can sing and play piano.

Given how badly she moved as Rachel in One Tree Hill, I call false in the gymnastics claim. We’ve heard her sing—she can’t sing, period. Never seen her play the piano.

There have been claims that she has a degree in beat-poetry from University of Louisiana. She is not listed as an alumni and the timing does not work. I also call false that.

Elta has tried to create a jewelry line with Limbo Jewelry to create a line called Link. Near as I can tell, that jewelry line has never sold out and has not sold well. Supposedly it was meant as a benefit for Creative Action, an Austin-based charity aimed at foster youth-development projects. It has barely raised much, only $30,000.

Elta has four tattoos. A matching tattoo with Hilarie, which says “Mischief”, that she got at Hilarie’s wedding. A shark tattoo on her butt. An arrow on her left arm in honor of her children, and some kind of “robe-woman” who resembles a muse on her right arm.

She photographed for Maxim’s “Hot 100” list several times.

Supposedly, she is still friends with Hilarie Burton Morgan and Bevin Price.

She claimed she fell in love with Jensen during filming of Ten Inch Hero. They apparently drove back and forth, car pooled, really, to and from set and struck up a deeper conversation. Jensen once claimed he gave her a note that said “Not now, someday” as by that time, Elta was engaged to Riley Smith, Jensen’s friend.

Evidently, she didn’t even tell Riley what happened. She just packed up her things and moved out from their shared apartment, no break-up talk, nothing. Riley is now very happy she did that, given the crappy way she broke up with him. The best thing he got out of that relationship, he once claimed, was the guitar he was gifted with.

Jensen kept mum on the relationship for a long while. He had dated Joanna Krupa at one point, and Tania Saulnier. He was rumored, at one point, to have been with LeAnn Rimes (she herself said that was false) and Jessica Simpson (never been mentioned).

His revelation that he was dating came as a surprise—and almost no one knew who she was. When his engagement was announced on JustJared, no one knew he was dating or still dating her. The timing of said engagement had always been suspicious, given it was practically a week after Jared proposed to Genevieve.

Jensen claimed later that Elta gave him an ultimatum and that she hadn’t known he was going to propose.

I believe it was because seeing Jared get engaged meant the gay rumors would focus solely on him and he didn’t want to deal with that. Plus, suspected he had to “settle down”, so Elta was his “Okay, I guess she’ll do” girl. Not the girl of his dreams.

She likely tailored herself to what he wanted as she knew him for years prior to that.

Not to mention a rather quick engagement to wedding (six months; most usually do a year! Perhaps because Jared’s was set and they wanted to compete—or rather, Elta did).

Oh, Elta’s career kept puttering along. Some attempts were made, and all failed. No, I don’t think it’s because she wanted to be a stay-at-home mom either. Her career just didn’t take off; she’s a horrible actress with a childish voice that is clearly faked.

Her most recent role was a ‘gift’ from Hilarie. A pity gift.

And honestly, she’s not even a stay-at-home mom. She has nannies, a housekeepr, a gardener, possibly more help than most single parents or stay-at-home parents have. She’s unrelatable. She’s achieved nothing beyond being Jensen Ackles’ wife.

I’d pity her, if it weren’t obvious Jensen is scared of her. (He’s said: “I’m not suicidal, I’m getting out of her way”; called her “Scary Spice”; has stated more than once that he defers to her because he has to; said their marriage works better when they’re apart.)

Deuxmoi, October 2018 - March 2023

October 2018

Spotted: This curly haired driver was trying to be discreet in Austin but failed miserably. It might have worked if he didn’t have a bright pink cowboy hat on. I hope the brunette who gave it to him knows the cowboy hat rule!

April 2019 

Spotted: Could have sworn I saw Daniel Ricciardo at Coachella weekend two with a short brunette. When I looked again I wasn’t sure, but they were making out and happy.

August 2019

Spotted: The breakout Netflix driver on a family Disney trip. His “friend” according to the show had his nephew on her hip, and they all had matching mouse ears. He couldn’t stop putting an arm around her shoulder or having his hand at her back. Too cute.

Spotted: First time submission and it’s a Big One. In a dive bar in Vegas and Daniel Ricciardo walked in with his girlfriend/assistant/whatever she is but she’s cute. Took a booth at the back and they ordered beers and shots, flirting constantly. Once the dancing started they were on the floor and his hands were ALL OVER HER. Got a sneaky photo too.

April 2020

Spotted: Was at an Optus event before the now cancelled Australian Grand Prix (sadness) and Daniel Ricciardo was guest of honour. The brunette he’s always photographed with was there too, they are NOT just friends. His hand was around her waist and he was making sure her drink was always full. Plus I spotted her talking with some of the bigwigs from Optus, Daniel was watching her with heart eyes all the time.

August 2020

Name: Francophone 

Email: neverorange@gmail.com 

Subject: Breaking the rules? 

Message: Ever since this paddock playboy joined his latest team he’s had a pass available for his alleged best friend. Thanks to the pandemic rules it’s staff only, and she’s been upgraded to assistant. Seems like a way to get his fuckbuddy to work with him. 

June 2021

Name: Mediterranean Marvel

Email: yachtgirls@gmail.com

Subject: Unexpected attendee

Message: Walking past the marina in Monaco and spotted Charles LeClerc and Daniel Ricciardo on Charles’ yacht. Charles girlfriend was there, Ricciardo had his arm around a tattooed brunette in a skimpy bikini. Didn’t get a good look at her, but I don’t think it was the girl he’s seen with at races! New girlfriend?

December 2021

Name: Desert Diva

Email: loungesonly@fakeemail.com

Subject: Heartbreak

Message: In the lounge in Dubai and spotted Daniel Ricciardo saying goodbye to his girlfriend while they were both crying. His friends gave her hugs too, and everyone looked miserable. She managed to hold it together mostly until he left, but we were on the same plane and she was crying most of the flight. His insta looks like he’s back in Australia and quarantining, guess the wedding rumours aren’t true. She was so sweet to the staff, apologising for being a mess. That rumour that she’s a cheater is a lie, those two are too cute.

June 2022

Spotted: Walking around Perth Zoo for the weekend and who do I see but hometown hero Daniel Ricciardo. Didn’t take photos cause he was there with family, it looked like his girlfriend and his niece and nephew. I see why his girlfriend’s been MIA recently, she looked pretty ill. They were adorable though, his niece kept holding her hand and asking to be carried whenever we walked past them. Glad to see them together and happy, hopefully his performance improves.

October 2022

Spotted: I just saw Daniel Ricciardo and his girlfriend in the Target in Wooten, Austin. Bought groceries and sheets? No idea.

March 2023

Name: It’s fucking orange

Email: givesyouwings@email.com

Subject: Disgustingly cute

Message: Daniel Ricciardo and Scotty James’ fiancées were both at Eras Tour night one in Vegas. Wearing costumes and singing/yelling along. The two of them had all the words to All Too Well, and I think Em was FaceTiming Daniel during Our Song.

Yvette Heiser’s-Flavors Through the Lens: Texas Food Photography Workshop

In the heart of Texas, where culinary culture meets picturesque landscapes, Yvette Heiser Learn about Food Photography with Yvette Heiser, Texas is at the forefront of revolutionizing food photography. Her lens doesn’t discriminate—it captures the essence of Texas terroir, from sun-kissed peaches at local farmer’s markets to sizzling brisket on roadside grills1. Let’s delve into the expertise needed to craft breathtaking imagery that encapsulates the spirit of Texas weddings and gastronomy.

Natural Light is Key

When it comes to food photography, natural light is your best friend. Texas, blessed with abundant sunshine, provides an ideal backdrop for capturing the perfect food shot. Whether dining al fresco at a quaint café in Austin or enjoying a Tex-Mex feast in San Antonio, position your dish near a window or outdoors to make the most of the natural light.

Showcasing Local Flavors

Texas boasts a rich tapestry of culinary traditions, from Savory barbecue to mouthwatering Tex-Mex. When photographing food in Texas, focus on capturing the unique flavours and ingredients that define the state’s gastronomic identity. Whether it’s a sizzling plate of brisket from a renowned barbecue joint or a colourful spread of tacos from a local food truck, highlighting local flavours adds authenticity to your photos.

Composition and Angles

Experimenting with composition and angles takes your food photography to the next level. Instead of simply shooting your dish from eye level, try capturing it from different perspectives. In Texas, you’ll encounter visually appealing dishes, from towering burgers to artfully plated desserts, providing ample opportunities to get creative with your compositions.

Embracing Food Culture

Food is deeply woven into the fabric of Texan culture. Incorporate glimpses of local food culture into your photos—whether showcasing the vibrant hustle and bustle of a farmers’ market in Dallas or capturing the laid-back charm of a traditional Texas barbecue. Infuse your photos with authenticity and charm by celebrating the food culture.

Wildlife photography has evolved beyond mere aesthetics—it has become a powerful tool for raising awareness and fostering a deeper connection between humans and the natural environment and Yvette Heiser Wonders Captured the Power of Wildlife Photography in Conservation with her keen eye and unwavering passion, exemplifies this transformative impact.

Awe and Wonder

Yvette’s lens reveals the intricate details of wildlife—the delicate feathers of a bird in flight, the intensity in a predator’s eyes, or the grace of a herd of elephants. These images inspire awe and wonder, reminding us of the sheer diversity and resilience of life on our planet.

Conservation Advocacy

Through her work, Yvette advocates for conservation. Each photograph tells a story—a narrative of survival, adaptation, and vulnerability. By capturing these moments, she invites viewers to join the cause, urging us to protect habitats, combat poaching, and preserve biodiversity.

Elusive Creatures

Wildlife photography presents challenges—accessing remote and inhospitable environments, waiting patiently for elusive creatures, and respecting their natural behaviour. Yvette’s dedication pays off as she captures fleeting glimpses of endangered species, emphasizing their importance in the delicate balance of ecosystems.

Ethical Practices

Yvette Heiser adheres to ethical guidelines. She prioritizes the well-being of animals over the perfect shot. Her images are a testament to patience, respect, and responsible photography—never disturbing habitats or endangering wildlife.

A Call to Action

As we immerse ourselves in Yvette’s portfolio, we’re reminded that every click of the shutter holds immense power. It’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about igniting a passion for conservation. Yvette Heiser’s wonders captured through her lens propel us to protect the wild spaces that sustain life.

Yvette Heiser’s work transcends pixels and paper—it’s a call to action, a plea for harmony between humanity and the natural world.

Hello....can you write a romantic headcanon for Dominic from Lackadaisy?(⁠•⁠ ⁠▽⁠ ⁠•⁠;⁠)

yesss. we dont have a lot of appearances from Mister Drago in the comic buuuut i feel we get a good idea of his personality! Still, a lot of this just ideas and extrapolations of mine.

GN reader primarily, with some specific femme and masc options.

A few Femme HCs~

Dominic's a classic gentleman - wanting to have your arm in his, opening doors and moving chairs for you, even helping you over puddles (though that one is more to tease you). He's smooth about it all, not expecting a big fanfare or thanks. It's just what he was raised to do for ladies.

You have absolutely met his parents down in Texas, and they just adore you. They're often calling to check in, asking you to make Dom call or write more, and roping you into holiday plans. I like to think they own a nice ranch outside Austin, and have a townhouse in the city proper.

If you two are married, he has a lovely framed photograph of you in your wedding dress. He keeps the larger portrait on his nightstand, and a smaller one on his desk at work. He secretly likes it when the other agents notice and comment on what a lucky fella he is.

A few Masc HCs~

Unlike most men who approach you with an understanding, Dominic has a charm and a quiet confidence. There's little to no insecurity; he's clearly comfortable in who he is. With a masc partner he's much less "chivalrous" - i.e. he doesn't treat them like some high society lady - instead showing his affection through caring gestures and being a little protective.

Though he may not look it, Dom is aware of the underground queer club scenes and their lingo. He's humorously out of place there, dressed sharp and relaxing off in a corner rather than drinking or dancing. Because of his job, he has to be very careful about which establishments he chooses - so rather than full-blown speakeasies, they're theater houses and little local bohemian retreats where wine is the strongest drink. It's still not totally his scene, but he can relax around the people and not feel so guarded. He'll also do his best to redirect police raids away from these little establishments, especially if you and your friends frequent one of them.

There's a good chance he still has the wife and kids back home, and while he does care for them at a distance, its his job that gets most of his time - and by the time you come around, well. They're lucky to get what few calls and letters they do. It's also likely he never married to begin with, though his parents won't stop hounding him about it.

Unbeknownst to you, Dom keeps a candid photo of you that one of your friends gave him. It's tucked away in his nightstand and he likes to say goodnight to it; a sentimental little ritual he wouldn't easily admit to.

General ones!

A more level-headed person, probably about his age or just a little younger, is who he'll vibe with best. I can see him being appreciative of a more creative spirit, and while he'll greatly admire someone dedicated to their career -- well, two workaholics means you both will barely see each other. A partner whose connected to crime is a no-go - closest he might get is a musician or singer for a club.

Getting a date night can be tough! Dom is a bit married to his work, which he's aware of. Starting a relationship troubles him only because he worries he won't be present enough. He'll bring papers home and often works late, but this means when there's a date, he goes out of his way to be attentive and do things you'd like.

Also, he appreciates the small things! A cup of tea in the evening, saving some dinner for him, having coffee ready in the morning, dropping off lunch at his work, and so on. He thanks you every time. He's also very soft for you lighting his pipe and sharing a smoke outside (or just chatting beside him if you don't smoke yourself).

You never have to guess his feelings, because Dom is honest with them. There's the 'I love you', sure, but there's also all the appreciation and praise and compliments, always said in that steady, deep voice of his. It can get flustering if you aren't used to it! He'll really lean into the southern accent if you like it, too. But that's just between you two.

(Also, the accent comes out when he's still sleepy, especially before coffee.)

Honestly, it's a crime how smooth he is. When you first started to know him, you weren't sure if he was aware of it - but oh, you're sure now. He looks you in the eyes, whispers to you, gives kisses that are confident and touches that are firm but never hard. It's actually unfair, the man is way too good at figuring out what gets you heated the fastest. He's actually worse about the teasing and touches if you're easily embarrassed, but he'll never go over a boundary you set, and he's more careful in public.

You can get him back if the date is at the theater or the movies - because it's dark, and he's usually overworked, it's not uncommon for Dom to drift off even if there's an opera tenor on stage or a woman screaming in the picture show. He feels so awful for it! But now it's your turn to tease him.

Dom loves it when you wear the nice things he bought you, or use the practical things. He's obviously pleased when he notices. Dom is excellent at giving gifts, as he observes the things you admire and things you already wear or own, and goes off that. He doesn't need a special occasion, either - something in a shop window catches his attention and he steps right in to buy it. He's a practical man himself, buuut he likes both good-quality things and spoiling you.

If he's pulling long hours on a big case, he tries to tell you ahead of time. Dominic doesn't like having to do that; he doesn't want you feeling disappointed or lonely - and though he won't show it, sometimes the loneliness gets at him, too. If you're more femme presenting, he likes to have a photograph or ribbon of your's in his pocket, something to lift his spirits when he's burning midnight oil. If you're masc, he actually likes to wear your cufflinks or one of your ties.

On that note, if you two are the same clothing size - a bit of a rarity for him - Dom absolutely likes to "accidentally" take your shirts and wear them instead. He waits to see how long it takes for you to notice, because he always has them cleaned and put back nicely afterward. It's a surprisingly playful side of him, but honestly ... if you're smaller, he likes you wearing his shirts too, and little else. It's something he's not embarrassed to say.

Overall he's a wonderfully considerate and reliable partner - you just have to know his work often comes first, especially once he starts investigating in St. Louis.

భీమవరం ఎర్ర బస్సు and the Magic of Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry 101. A nightmare for many, but for one student in Bhimavaram, it became an unforgettable learning experience, all thanks to the iconic "ఎర్ర బస్సు" (Red Bus).

My father, a natural science teacher, was a legend in his own right, a true GOAT in his "అడ్డా." You might wonder, what's the link between natural science and organic chemistry? Well, even though his specialization was "సామాన్య శాస్త్రం" (natural science), he was renowned throughout our town and district as the best teacher for math, English, physics, and chemistry – especially organic chemistry. He even tutored aspiring MBBS students. My cousin once mentioned that my father had researched applying matrices to human anatomy. At the time, it was all Greek to me. It was only when I pursued my Master's in AI and ML that I truly grasped the power of matrices and my father's brilliance.

Sadly, I never had the chance to be his student, as he passed away when I was only ten. However, throughout my 20s and 30s, I encountered many of his former students who shared incredible stories about his teaching prowess.

One such encounter happened in Austin, Texas. I met a former student who was overjoyed to learn of my connection to my father. He launched into a heartfelt tribute, unaware of my father's passing. I listened silently, absorbing his memories. He recounted his struggles with organic chemistry as a kid, his low scores, and his tendency to skip classes. My father, in his wisdom, delved deeper, understanding this student's habits, interests, and family background. He discovered that the student and his family frequently traveled by bus between villages around Bhimavaram.

This was his "Eureka!" moment. My father ingeniously used the seating layout of our "ఎర్ర బస్సులు" (Red Buses) to explain diatomic and triatomic molecules. Diatomic molecules, he explained, were like the two-seater arrangement on the left side of the bus, while triatomic molecules mirrored the three-seater setup on the right. He even used the "ladies only" seats as an analogy for homonuclear compounds, with the remaining seats representing heteronuclear compounds. The student told me that from that moment on, organic chemistry became fascinating and easy to grasp.

Another encounter, this time in Eluru, further solidified my father's impact. My mother had asked me to invite a former student's family to my wedding. He was so overwhelmed with emotion upon seeing me that he almost cried, gently touching my hands, shoulders, and face, holding back tears. He led me to a bedroom and, during our conversation, pointed to a framed chart on the wall opposite the bed. It wasn't a photograph, a quote, or a depiction of a deity. It was a scientific formula.

Confused, I asked him about it. He explained that it was a concept my father had taught him. "We all have strengths and weaknesses," he said. "Mine was my memory. Your father taught me to identify key points worth remembering and to write them on a chart to place where I'd see it every morning. It worked wonders. Now, my own child follows the same practice."

It was moments like these that revealed the profound impact my father had on so many lives. Ironically, as a toddler, I was considered a "dumb" child because I didn't start speaking until I was five. Yet, by six, I could recite the entire periodic table while playing! My mother fondly recalls that while she never heard me sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," my periodic table recitations were a constant melody in our home.

This is just a small glimpse into the extraordinary story of my father, a teacher who used the everyday world, even a simple red bus, to unlock the magic of learning.

Yours Sincerely

Archives of breakthrough star Waters now in Austin 

The archives of pioneering American Black singer Ethel Waters, a stage, movie and TV star, have been acquired by the Ransom Center at the University of Texas.

Ethel Waters (Oct. 31, 1896-Sept. 1, 1977) profoundly influenced American entertainment.

Her career began in Harlem nightclubs before she toured with national and international vaudeville and cabaret acts.

A savvy businesswoman, she parlayed her early successes into stardom in commercial theater, radio, film and television.

Best remembered by later generations for her roles in the movies “Stormy Weather” (1933), “Cabin in the Sky” (1943) and “The Member of the Wedding” (1952), Waters was the first African American to star in their own TV show – “The Ethel Waters Show” (1939) — and the second Black actor to be nominated for an Academy Award.

That Best Supporting Actress nomination came for her performance in “Pinky” (1949).

Why Austin?

Just where have Waters’ papers, recordings, photographs and artwork been hiding since her death in 1977?

And how did the UT humanities research center win them?

“Ethel Waters lived the last several years of her life in the Los Angeles home of Joan Croomes, a close friend who had known Waters since their early days performing together in the 1943 film version of ‘Cabin in the Sky,’” said Eric Colleary, curator of theater and performing arts at the center.

“Croomes also functioned as Waters’ standin on several film and TV projects. When Waters’ health eventually declined and she needed to move to a nursing home, she left her papers to Croomes who cared for them through her life before passing them to her nephew, Wren T. Brown.”

Brown, a noted actor and director, became familiar with the Ransom Center while researching his grandfather, the actor and comedian, Troy Brown Sr.

“When it came time to find a permanent home for the Ethel Waters material, he remembered the qualitative experience he had with the Ransom Center years earlier and reached out to us,” Colleary said. 

“The Ransom Center will now be able to make the collection available to researchers for the first time.”

Wren Brown, an actor, film producer and theater director, has a book forthcoming on his family’s storied history in entertainment coming out this January called “The Family Business: Four Generations of One Black Family’s Artistic Odyssey.”

What’s in the Ethel Waters archives?

The treasure trove about this early star includes material of particular interest to researchers into LGBTQ+ culture and history.

● The collection consists of roughly 31 boxes of papers, recordings, photographs and artwork.

● Of special note for music historians, it contains more than 180 LP records, the majority of which are unreleased, noncommercial recordings of Waters singing in studio, live in concert and on the radio.

● In the collection are the corrected drafts of her memoir, “His Eye is on the Sparrow.”

She published two popular memoirs – “His Eye is on the Sparrow” (1951) and “To Me It’s Wonderful” (1972).

● Three boxes of business records including contracts, box office receipts and letters exchanged with her agents. Unusual for her time, Waters successfully negotiated percentages of box office receipts in addition to her base salary for productions.

● Seven boxes of personal and professional correspondence including revealing letters with family members, ex-husbands, lovers, producers, agents, notable artistic and literary figures. She was married and divorced three times, and for many years during the 1920s was in a romantic relationship with dancer and actor Ethel Williams, known to her friends as “the other Ethel.”

● An original typescript for “In Dahomey” (1903), recognized today as the first major commercial, full-length musical to be written and performed by African American artists. Only two surviving scripts were known – one filed for copyright at the Library of Congress and another copy filed for censor review at the British Library. This script is substantively different from those two versions
