You know what, I think Eloise’s reaction to Penelope being LW through season 2 and to season 3 is taken from the anger Colin had in the book. She is angry and also jealous because Penelope is right from their argument, because unlike Eloise who is all talk about doing something but she never does. Penelope on the other hand DID something, she has A LIFE’S WORK, and Eloise can’t stand that.
Okay I agree and disagree with this Anon
I agree that Penelope was right and what she said to Eloise had been a long time coming, Eloise has a lot of advantages that other young women don't have and yet bemoans the oppression of a society in which she's oppressed the least. As tough her problems were the only ones that mattered. She's got very little self awareness and Penelope said what everyone else didn't have the guts to: that the world doesn't revolve around Eloise and her little mermaid ' part of your world ' problems
I disagree because I personally don't think Eloise is jealous. But rather that she had the wake up call all fake fans with a parasocial relationship have with celebrities when they meet and realize their idols are human... And flawed.
She's the audience throwing tomatoes at a performance when it's not up to her standards. The reviewer who leaves a 1 star review because their chef didn't change the menu, the Taylor Swift fan who signed a petition to 'save' Taylor from her relationship with Matty Healy. You get the point. Shes the type of fan and dare I say the type of friend who only likes something as long as Lady Whistledown and Penelope keep up the performance and conform to her idea of who they should be.
Lady Whistledown being that perfect celebrity writer and Penelope being the friend who never actively disagreed with her. So Eloise felt the betrayal in two fronts:
With LW it was very straightforward. The moment she found out that Lady Whistledown was actually an angry teenage girl and not a wise woman of the world, well of course she became an anti fan. I mean I know people in this fandom who send death threats to actors because uhh * puts on reading glasses * 'they didn't come back to the show ' well guess what, Eloise is exactly like that, just regency. I mean she's not the death threat kind of anti fan but as you can see shes definitely the ' this celebrity is dead to me ' kind of anti fan. (Although yeah, when we put it like that, jealousy is usually a big motivation in an anti fan hatred of whichever celebrity ' betrayed them' )
And I think that's the bulk of why Eloise reacted the way she did
The part that will probably go unnadressed in the show because its more messy is that with Penelope as a friend it was more personal because her friend had been lying to her, to her face, for a long time and worse, she was such a self absorbed friend that she believed the lie. Eloise thought she was close to Penelope but not as close as to see the Lady Whistledown in her. There's this whole side to Penelope, heck this whole career that Eloise doesn't know about. If Penelope lied about that then what else did she lie about? How many times did she agree with Eloise just to placate her (or redirect her away from the truth)
Note that I don't think Penelope is blameless in their fight, if Penelope felt she had to keep up a performance and pretend to be someone else even with Eloise, then her side of the friendship had its huge unnadressed trust issues too. But that's a post for another day
And that's the tea

I'm pretty sure Taylor Swift dating that football guy who knelt during the national anthem in support of Colin Kaepernick is simply a PR stunt on her part to deflect the criticism she received after choosing to date that racist Matt Healy. Like, just take a look at how publications like Slate are writing so favorably about it 😒😒😒

Dread by the Decade: Mad Love
👻 You can support or commission me on Ko-Fi! ❤️
★★★½
Plot: When her husband's hands are mangled in an accident, a woman seeks help from a doctor who's fixated upon her.
Review: An effectively unsettling tale of obsession and early body horror that, admittedly, forgets a subplot or two along the way.
Source Material: Les Mains d'Orlac by Maurice Renard Year: 1935 Genre: Sci-Fi Horror, Psychological Horror, Body Horror Country: United States Language: English Runtime: 1 hour 8 minutes
Director: Karl Freund Writers: John L. Balderston, Guy Endore, P.J. Wolfson, Florence Crewe-Jones Cinematographers: Chester A. Lyons, Gregg Toland Editor: Hugh Wynn Composer: Dimitri Z. Tiomkin Cast: Peter Lorre, Frances Drake, Colin Clive, Ted Healy, Sara Haden
Story: 3/5 - Its ratcheting tension makes up for some issues concerning unanswered questions and a somewhat rushed ending.
Performances: 4/5 - Lorre is an interesting mix of pitiable and unhinged, and Drake is especially likable as the tale’s heroine.
Cinematography: 4.5/5 - Great expressionist-esque work.
Editing: 4/5
Music: 4/5 - There’s barely any save for a few classic pieces, but they fit well.
Sets: 4/5 - As with the prior adaptation of this story, The Hands of Orloc, the train wreck set is of particular note.
Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 4.5/5 - I loved Dr. Gogol (Lorre)’s bizarre, metal disguise.

CTS B Week 1: Creative thinking, creative practice
This week we are to explore the difference and apply between creative thinking and creative practice as well as structured vs unstructured. Afterward, we were to share with the class your chosen topic related to social issues in Singapore specifically. I have decided on the topic of the rising cost of living in Singapore with how global issues have affected the country significantly for us ordinary Singaporeans. I have turned mine into a script to play out a scenario between two married couples who live in Singapore and how they would describe their current situation and their own ways to cope with the cost of living.
(this is the script that I came up with two couples as the main characters)
So recently almost everything in Singapore has had a significant increase in price due to global inflation and global affairs such as the US and China. Many of the things are beyond our control, but the ones affected are always the regular folks. Things affected are necessities such as Food, Transport, and Housing. These are further increased by the rise of GST from 7% to the now current 9%.
Of course, with proper management, it should not be an issue but it brings doubt into one's retirement plan if it were to be greatly affected.
(Over the years food items have increased significantly)
(Eating out has also changed a lot. Gone are the days when for $5 you can buy most things)
In conclusion, proper creative thinking like implementing innovative solutions such as putting out graphics to raise awareness among the public is a great way to start a bit of change something. It could be from choosing a more practical option such as making graphics for raising awareness, or selecting a more impactful theme for a project such as documenting the dangers of rising cost of living.

“Mad Love” (1935) aka “The Hands of Orlac” directed by Karl Freund: Peter Lorre is both sinister and pathetic as the brilliant Doctor Gogol. Colin Clive plays up and coming concert pianist Stephen Orlac whose crushed hands have been transplanted with those of a murderer named Rollo (Edward Brophy). Yep...the hands seem to have a knife-wielding life mind of their own, and they don’t care for the piano. The direction is dark and atmospheric. A scene where Gogal pretends to be a patched-up Rollo is downright freaky. Lorre and Clive give brilliant performances as tortured men, both denied someone or something they love. Frances Drake is excellent as Yvonne, desperate to support her husband while having to fend off Gogol. There are some comedic moments courtesy of Billy Gilbert in a small part, Gogol’s drunken cockatoo loving maid (May Beatty) and the loud obnoxious reporter Reagan (Ted Healy), but they aren’t too obtrusive. Beatty is very good actually as she is forced to play lady’s maid to a wax figure of Yvonne. All in all, a great film, especially if you like seeing Colin Clive squirm about in demented torment. Surely we all like that.
