I feel like y’all are not understanding the role of incest in gothic media like crimson peak
I keep seeing stuff like oh Lucille was just evil and abusive and Thomas is a poor little meow meow
They BOTH were horribly abused and isolated which led to the horror of the film, their incestuous relationship and murdering
Like the only reason Thomas even grew and changed was because he experienced a healthy love through Edith for the first time
She never got that and her obsession with him (which is super tied to her idea of safety and love and her FEAR) ultimately led to both of their deaths but this is a direct result the abuse she experienced
#this is reductionist but you see my point#she definitely has more of a predilection for killing than him but that also ties to their abuse#she took the brunt of the physical abuse and reacted with violence in the end#her violence is what protected her so yeah she’s more inclined to use it and doesn’t get why he won’t or is reluctant#crimson peak#incenst in gothic stories is there because it’s disturbing#posting this at 2am after watching it for the first time tonight and getting annoyed at some posts in the tag and YouTube ‘analysis’ videos#one video said they love gothic movies and loved this and only docked the score because they didn’t have to be siblings#like incest is a classic gothic theme idk what to tell you#my posts#posting when no one will see lmaoo

RIP Kenneth Cope (14.4.1931 - 11.9.2024)
"Michael Pratt and I just gelled. We had never met previously but we got on so well. Michael wrote, and we had such a great relationship that we would just change lines, and we were both on the same wavelength. That was such a lucky, lucky thing."
#kenneth cope#rip#death ment tw#character actors#randall and hopkirk (deceased)#x the unknown#the avengers#the criminal#the damned#tomorrow at ten#dateline diamonds#night of the big heat#z cars#dixon of dock green#coronation street#brookside#shelley#doctor who#classic doctor who#strangers#juliet bravo#ohhh :( this one hurts#i adored Randall and Hopkirk as a little kid. i adored Marty. i still do. it's the ITC show with the most heart and the most warmth#where the case of the week often ends up taking a background position to just enjoying Jeff and Marty and Jeannie and all of the#hijinks and whatnot. sigh. i know 93 is a good age and i mean good lord he outlived Mike Pratt by nearly 50 years. but still. I'll miss#you Marty. i usually try and rec a lesser known thing in these memorial posts... The Criminal is a very fine crime film and Dateline#Diamonds might be a bit naff but it did afford Ken one of his only true starring roles (plus Small Faces playing some of their hits!)#but really‚ just watch Randall and Hopkirk. a wonderfully cozy bit of old tv and a beautiful working relationship that shines through#in every single moment. rip Ken.

what if I posted an incredibly niche ethubs plot idea every day this week? what then?
well here is historical horse boy extravaganza:
the year is 1897. etho, a wealthy new york merchant's son, is returning home after a year abroad spent studying classical dressage at the spanish riding school. etho has always been obsessed with the classics, finding beauty in simplicity, form clearly echoing function. aboard the first class of the hypermodern ship lucania, surrounded by victorian sumptuousness, he feels trapped.
one other man in the first class cabin stands out. he has a drawling accent, wears a hat to dinner, and is usually surrounded by a gaggle of well-heeled men who treat him more like a zoo exhibit than a human being. etho learns that his name is bdubs, and that he's one of the last cowboys-- or at least that's how he was billed while headlining a european rodeo tour. bdubs is also on his way home, to an uncertain future. in this rapidly developing world, his skills as a cowboy are now only useful as a novelty.
etho is immediately drawn to him, and despite their class differences they quickly realize that they both long for the same thing-- freedom. oh and they both loooOOOVE horsies.
#this is a great way to work in all my weird hobbies#antiquity vs modernity (check)#horsies (check)#victorian era steamboats (check)#when they dock in new york they run away to like idaho or something#and etho invests all his money so they can open a horse ranch together#etho becomes like the classical dressage guru and people make pilgrimages to the ranch to learn his training techniques#bdubs is pretty sure etho learned everything he knows from him#story ideas

the best part of being a Michael & Michelle fan is they are silent for MONTHS and make you think they've forgotten they are a band and then on a random Tuesday they'll be like "we're playing a concert in December" and now my whole "I'm not going back to London in 2024" is looking pretty shot to hell!

Nico Rosberg speaks to Inside Grand Prix (by Motorsport.com) ahead of the 2008 Monaco Grand Prix about racing at home.
Translations incoming - but look at Nico staring into the distance
The face to flag transition. How does Nico really feel about racing under the German flag. Does it matter to him? He’s born and raised in Monaco. Not an immigrant not second gen not a third culture kid - what is he.
I fear this is the kind of thing you can’t learn. You have it or you don’t
#he’s looking for his green light at the end of the dock#this could be a Canada Goose advert#classic sitting on the rocks and contemplating your greatest hopes and deepest fears#I have something to say about the opening shot#Nico Rosberg#Nico Rosberg Interview#Monaco GP 2008#Monaco 2008

A fleeting appearance by Richard Franklin as '2nd Guard' in The Saint: The Fiction Makers - Part 2 (6.12, ITC, 1968) (far right in the top picture, unconscious in the second)
#fave spotting#captain mike yates#richard franklin#doctor who#classic doctor who#the saint#the fiction makers#as parts one and two were shot back to back they reuse some actors in minor roles and in fact Richard is credited for Part 1 too#apparently appearing as a reporter or a photographer in an early scene at a film premiere; i scoured that scene several times and i just#cannot spot him whatsoever (there is one photographer who never even looks out from behind his camera‚ which seems the most likely#candidate‚ but even he doesn't look quite right). Franklin only had one prior credit before his Saint appearance‚ in an#episode of Dixon of Dock Green which may well be lost‚ so this could be his earliest surviving screen role#the eps are sometimes styled The Fiction-Makers online but that dash was only used for the assembled film release of the story

totodile is my dell latitude e6400 with a custom paint job on the left speaker grill! the paint was chipping so i decided to give it a whole new color. totodile is dedicated for keeping track of all my repair projects.
he features a intel 2 duo T9950 cpu, a whopping 4 gb ddr2 800 mhz ram, and a fresh 480 gb crucial solid state drive. he has some sporty, flashy (but professional) dark blue LEDs to indicate when the drive is being read, or when wifi is active. i may or may not have broken the bluetooth card while disassembling him for spraypainting (i ordered a new one and will document how i install).
he runs linux mint xfce with no issues:)
#totodile#when i get more room. i'm going to buy the docking station for this thing#and have a classic late 00s workstation setup#youll have to forgive how dusty the palmrest is i havent taken isopropyl to it yet#or a microfiber cloth to the screen#this is an archive post
