Brain Curd #104

Brain Curds are lightly edited flash fiction - practically first drafts - posted daily (haven't missed one yet!) and sometimes written with the express intention of being terrible… but, you know, in an endearing way. Please like and reblog if you enjoy - the notes keep me going!

The following material is classified - unless you've read the rest of Government Man here on Tumblr!

Government Man pushed the last quarter through the slot and keyed in the code. The machine whirred as the motor spun the metal spiral to push his desired refreshment off the edge. The bag of peanuts leaned off the side, scared to jump, but finally went over. And got caught on the next shelf down.

GM put his face up to the glass and his lower lip quivered as though he was pleading with the bag of peanuts to please come down from there. But of course, peanuts are terrible at reading social cues and had no idea.

Suddenly, though, snacks seemed less important as the lights went red and a siren echoed through the halls. Boss Man’s voice boomed through the intercom.

“All hands on deck! Report to my office immediately!”

Government Man ran through the winding halls, his shoes squeaking as he turned corners. There were some near-misses with drinking fountains, too. But finally he arrived at Boss Man’s office, where Government Woman and Government Boy were already waiting.

“What is the emergency?” Government Man asked, out of breath.

Boss Man turned his chair around to face him and disabled the alert system.

“I have misplaced my missile launch codes.”

Everyone gasped.

“But Boss Man,” Government Woman replied. “Are you supposed to have missile launch codes?”

“I’m certain I am,” he answered. “I was just using them for reading material mere moments ago, but when I washed my hands, they were gone!”

“You read the missile launch codes…” Government Boy asked, “In the bathroom?”

“I know I may have read them many times before, but I always forget what happens in  the end. Very exciting. But that is beside the point - these codes can be used to start a war if they fall into the wrong hands!”

“Hmmm…” Government Woman rubbed her chin. “Classified documents, the restroom… this sounds like the work of Counter Spy.” She looked to Government Man. “Don’t you think?”

GM had a blank expression on his face. “Huh?”

“You know… your adversary… your nemesis…?”

He tilted his head.

“You first confronted him at a circus. He infiltrated the CIA. You wouldn’t sleep for weeks!”

“Oh… uh…” Government Man squinted his eyes and took a deep breath. “Yes, I remember now. Counter Spy. Yes.”

“Right…” Government Woman straightened her collar. “I say we start by searching the men’s room.”

Boss Man held up a finger. “I do not think you are allowed in there, Government Woman.”

“I think he is right,” Government Man nodded. “It is in the name of the room.”

“What difference does it make?!?” GW pounded her fists on Boss Man’s desk. “You lost the missile codes! I thought it was ‘all hands on deck’!”

“I have an idea, Government Woman.” Boss Man smiled. “Why don’t you check the ladies’ room since that is where you are allowed?”

“But they won’t be in there!”

“Have you already checked?”

“Why would they be there? You aren’t even supposed to be in the ladies’ room!”

“That’s why I need you to look. Please do not argue with me.”

Government Woman growled and stormed off. She kicked the door open to the ladies’ room and began searching the stalls, one by one. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. She pulled at her hair and leaned on the sink counter, frustrated. This was a waste of time, surely. But then, she heard something. A stall door opened behind her, the only one she hadn’t checked. Before she could turn around, the cold metal of a pistol was pushed up against the back of her head.

“Put your hands up. I don’t want to hurt you.”

She slowly put her arms in the air, shaking.

“What… what do you want?”

“I only want to show you something.”

She looked at his face in the mirror and her eyes went wide. “Wait… but you can’t be… you?!?”

Propaganda

Jean Harlow (Red-Headed Woman, Dinner at Eight, Libeled Lady)— The original blonde bombshell. There would be no Marilyn Monroe or other funny blonde starlet without her! She was still an up and comer when cast in Platinum Blonde and at the time the film was either gonna be called The Gilded Cage or Gallagher (after the other female lead in the film) but after casting Harlow her role was expanded and the film titled after her. That's starpower!!!

Marsha Hunt (The Human Comedy, College Holiday, These Glamour Girls)—To be honest, I haven't had the chance to see a lot of her films, but she was an amazing person. A beautiful, popular actress during the 30s and 40s, Marsha was unfairly blacklisted during the Red Scare for speaking out against McCarthyism. Instead of letting that stop her, she focused her efforts on humanitarian work for causes such as world hunger, poverty, and pollution. She was also a support of same-sex marriage. Side note to any fellow fashion history nerds, she wrote a book on 30s-40s fashion. She stayed true to her beliefs through the years, and passed away at the age of 104 in 2022.

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

[additional propaganda submitted under the cut.]

Marsha Hunt:

Marsha Hunt first signed with Paramount in 1935 at the age of seventeen, kicking off a prolific career as a beloved Hollywood star and fashion model. Her distinctive profile and facial structure earned her the nickname “Curly Lips”: “Besides a rounded forehead, almost no nose bridge, and a nose that curved upwards, even my lips curled up at the corners. Ronald Coleman and his wife Benita told me they used to describe me to each other as ‘Curly Lips.’ I decided that anything that helped two people I adored take notice of me would no longer keep me awake at nights.” (The Way We Wore, p.95) Marsha appeared in about seventy films over almost eighty years, including Hollywood Boulevard, College Holiday, Easy Living, These Glamour Girls, Irene, Pride and Prejudice, Blossoms in the Dust, Thousands Cheer, The Human Comedy, and many more. She was blacklisted during the McCarthy era for publicly defending Hollywood from the accusations of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, alongside Lucille Ball, Humphrey Bogart, Deanna Durbin, Henry Fonda, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, and many other members of the Hollywood community.

Jean Harlow:

what is there to say just look at her. the blondest woman to ever live. a sort of prototypal marilyn monroe. has a cocktail named after her so you know she was really that beautiful. dated longie zwillman. godmother to bugsy siegel's daughter. if we really want to bring back being a mob wife we have to start here.........

She was the OG Blonde Bombshell. People don't give her credit, but she was actually a sweetheart and had a great flair for comedy. And she worked those pencil thin brows! And even though she's known for the Blonde, she is deliciously evil in Red-Headed Woman, I highly recommend!

I am also pleasantly surprised that my top 3 fandoms are all represented in my top 3 pairings, although I am surprised that I've written more Clarkson/May than OT3. I'm also surprised I haven't written more Howard/Jason, but I also wrote a bunch of moresomes for Take That.

My additional tags don't really surprise me either - my two main fic-writing modes are smut or comedy or funny smut.

ok, @posthumanwanderings asked me about my favourite simple 2000 games, and it'd be easier to format this as a text post than as a private message. so here it is:

vol 37: the shooting ~double shienryu~ - released in europe as steel dragon ex, this is the excellent arcade shooting game shienryu, along with a newly-made sequel. the ps1 port has a ton of weird extras, but this port has a whole sequel.

vol 50: the daibijin - released in europe as demolition girl, this is about attacking the supermodel riho futaba, who has become kaiju sized, for some reason. contains the iconic phrase "breast acquisition data". when it came out here, it had some brief infamy as one of the games unfunny hacks would play and exaggerate how bad it was, for the purposes of alleged "comedy"

vol 64: the splatter action - released in europe as splatter master, it's a cute, gory beat em up, in which you control a little pumpkin man with chainsaws

vol. 73: the saiyuutou saruden - possibly released in europe as monkey king, but i'm not sure if it actually happened. i wrote about it here

vol 81: the chikyuu boueigun 2 - released in europe as global defence force, i'm sure you all know what this is. iconic, era-defining, one of the best games on the entire ps2, not just in the simple series. i'm not joking.

vol. 95: the zombie vs kyuukyuusha - released in europe as zombie vs ambulance, it's post-apocalyptic horror crazy taxi with boss fights. you'll probably get bored after a few stages at most, but the novelty of it is compelling for a while at least.

vol. 101: the oneechanpon ~the neechan 2 tokubetsu-hen~ - the early musou-style oneechanbara games are rough to go back to compared to the more modern character action-style games, but if you're going to play any of them, this is probably the most interesting. it's got a bunch of guest characters from other simple 2000 games!

vol. 104: the robot tsukuuruze ~gekitou robot fight!~ i wrote about this one here

vol. 105: the maid fuku to kikanjuu - a beat em up where you play as a heavily-armed maid killing evil dolls and shit

vol. 112: the tousou highway 2 ~road warrior 2050~ - i wrote about this one here

[sleepythug]

went to see kind of kindness which is amusing enough, satisfyingly mean for a dark comedy and like 3hr long when you throw in pre-roll and movie trailers therefore the best kinda film to see when you don't have a/c in your house and it's like 104 degrees outside.

after I went over to barnes & noble thinking "oh i'm going to kill another hour here!!" browsed the criterions for a bit, ended up getting y tu mama tambien, pat garrett and billy the kid, and hirokazu kore-eda's after life. looked at the horror books. then manga. grabbed a copy of tatsuki fujimoto's "look back" which i've read already but love, maybe even more so than chainsaw man, and im very excited to see the film adaptation of.

then i could feel beads of sweat rolling down my back, i think their a/c wasn't blowing out fully or was out, so I decided to bounce. which was too bad bc i really could have spent a whole hour and a half reading the back of books that have been on my list of books i'm curious about. ohhh and the girl that rang me up picked up my copy of y tu mama tambien and went "ohhh hey look:)" to her co-worker

judging from how sticks interacts with audiences (us), it means that there is a cameraman. and that cameraman can reliably follow sonic running. that cameraman can go to the space without worrying about having to breath. that cameraman can go underwater without the fear of water.

the cameraman in sonic boom is metal sonic (except for episodes 45 and 104). and everyone in cartoons know that the producers are the gods. it is reasonable to expect that sticks in particular would be very nice to metal sonic.

the image is fun though. metal sonic flying, holding a camera, recording soar on jetpacks narrating on the car race. soar can complain on how a fox can fly but a bird can't, but he would not dare complain to the gods.

but yeah i think sticks and metal sonic are a good pair.

anyway metal's a good choice as a cameraman for sure, as there is no way metal would make giggling sounds, especially while filming a comedy show.

‘it’s sunday, em’ you may say. ‘it’s not a tuesday or a thursday so why are you making one of these godawful posts where you reveal that you are very easily entertained by women so long as they are older than your parents and express an iota of interest in your annoying ass’ you may say. welcome to the Security Blanket Rehearsal.

if you indulge me you may be treated to a cartoon under the cut.

concertmaster (who i found in the parking lot) and i walk into rehearsal to find all the seats set up, most of the winds and brass present, and little to no strings save a STACKED cello section and my stand partner

and on the podium, inexplicably, a bag of oranges sitting where tita conductor would normally stand.

rehearsal was supposed to start at 12:30. it did not, in fact, start at 12:30. neither the instrument locker rooms or restrooms are open on the weekends and a police officer had to be called to grant access to them. ('never mind privacy,' tita conductor announced, 'keep the main doors propped open because they will lock')

we had photo and video at this rehearsal, so it was a good thing i actually fixed my hair today. i expect to be jumpscared by myself on the orchestra instagram again sometime this week

tita conductor announced she was going to take the un poco meno mosso middle section of dvořák 7 mov. iii a little faster because she had 'been taking it a little too meno mosso' and i couldn't resist the urge to jot down 'molto meno mosso' on one of my spare sticky notes for my stand partner to see. i am the queen of comedy etc

tita conductor cut us off after running a bit of the beginning of the midsection and said 'seconds, this is very espressivo and thank you for that, but we do need a little less of you and more of the winds' and my stand partner said 'aw man' in the most put out tone

unlike the last time the soloist was with us for the saint-saëns, she did not steamroller through her part when tita conductor had to cut us off. with one notable exception. tita conductor had to cut us off while the soloist was climbing the fingerboard into the stratosphere at measure 525 or something like that; the soloist continued into the harmonics but didn't reach the F natural

luckily, tita conductor was on hand for that, resulting in a very "did anyone else hear just one single angelic note" moment:

after running through the saint-saëns to tita conductor's and the soloist's satisfaction, we took a break, where i found myself with various strings in the back of the rehearsal room (as well as nicking snacks brought by tita conductor)

after eating some conductor-provided candy, i decided i should wash my hands before touching my instrument again, so i headed out to the restrooms

tita conductor was standing outside, fiddling with her phone with a very frustrated look on her face; i tried to sneak past her (very difficult in an ivovanhovedongiovannicore exterior hallway) but she looked up and said 'excuse me?' so i stopped to see what was the matter

i thought she was going to tell me something about my playing or my leading or whatever but she showed me her screen, where an overlay of photo details was taking up her screen, and said 'i just—i just need this crap taken off the picture.'

i peered closer and said 'may i?' and off her answer to the affirmative, tapped once on the screen to clear the photo details, to which she said, fanfic italics and all, 'Oh. Well then.'

i was left to scurry off to the restroom

once break finished, we went on to the debussy. forget 'dancing in paris' we are now 'ice-skating in paris' apparently

the debussy was glossed over very quickly because we needed time for 'our beloved pals haydn and mendelssohn'

after working on some bits we played the haydn 104 finale all the way through the development and recapitulation without stopping (we have played this in concert already so it was sort of a reintroduction) and something about it just felt. different. in a good way.

haydn isn't my favorite (i love it but the brahms serenade mov. i will always have my heart in terms of our concert program) but somehow at the end my eyes were stinging a little bit. we sounded so good and unified and i'm just a sappy wreck when it comes to orchestra but i really was overcome thinking about how i had never thought i'd be able to do anything like this, and now—there i was. first time i've ever felt like happy-crying after playing a piece.

if i'd thought i felt overcome with emotion at the end of that piece, tita conductor was even more so: she couldn't say anything except 'yeah. yeah' for a few seconds, until she told us that we had really taken the spirit of the symphonic form 'and brought it home to its DAD!'

which. yeah i know, haydn, father of the symphony, but HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

'please take some of [the snacks] lest they all end up in my body. which will not be good' -tita conductor

(she finished a bag of viola friend's toffee in something like a day that i took a week and a half to finish. she is not joking)

anyways, yeah. i had so much fun. i have so much fun every time i go to rehearsal. i literally cannot wait for more.

All bosses PT2

So, let's continue with this!

O'chunks again. Actually, is the villain that we fight the most.

King Croacus, yehah, I've talk about him in one last part, so go see it!

Mimi. Same.

Brobot XXL

Despite being an improved version of Brobot, the L-type has less HP, however this is due to the nature of the two battles: the original robot is fought using Squirps' laser fire, which is much more damaging than normal attacks, necessitating a greater amount of HP. Its attack and defense have been increased by one, however. And also It has been upgraded with hands and feet.

Additional information:

Catch Card: 194

HP MAX: 64

Attack: 5

Defense:  4 (8 against fire)Score: 6000

Card description: This is a souped-up version of Mr. L's robot. It looks like he went all out with the customizations. Too bad they don't help much!

Tatle: That's Brobot L-type. Mr. L pulled out all the stops to make this one... Most of its moves are the same, but it can now use its hands or tackle you... He seems to be weak to explosions, so try using Boomer on his feet... You remember that after setting a bomb, you can use 1 again to set it off, right?

Bowser. Again. What a surprise, not? At least, he's not the main villain and the final boss this time.

Underchomp. A great boss!

Despite the fact that Dorguy the Third is the one that summons it, the Underchomp's Catch Card states that all three Dorguys have ownership of the beast. The Underchomp is based upon the legendary hellhound Cerberus, a giant, three-headed dog who guarded the gates of Hades in Greek mythology. In one story, he was put to sleep by the music of Orpheus, which is similar to how Piccolo's music can put the Underchomp to sleep. 

Mario, Luigi, and Bowser face the enemy in a far different way from other enemies in the game; they fight the creature in a turn-based battle, though it is farther from the style of other Paper Mario games, and closer to that of the Dragon Quest titles and EarthBound Beginnings. Its battle music is an 8-bit remix of the normal mini-boss theme.

The player cannot use Tippi at any point during the battle with the Underchomp, and it does not appear in the field before or after the encounter, making it the only enemy in the game (and one of the few in the Paper Mario series) that cannot be Tattled. However, a Tattle exists in the game data.

Each head has a special ability. The Red Underchomp (left in battle) breathes crimson fire, the Blue Underchomp (middle one in battle) exhales blue fire, and the Yellow Underchomp (right one in battle) expels stinky breath. Each Underchomp can also charge up for one turn to use a stronger attack later.

Adittional information:

Catch Card: 104

HP: 48 (16 each)

Attack: 3

Defense: 4

Score: 6000

Card description: The three Dorguys command this special breed of Chomp. In off-hours they like to practice their comedy act. (A/N: ?)

Tattle: That's the Underchomp...It's a three-headed Chomp that guards The Underwhere...Max HP is 16, Attack is 3, Defense is 4. It's immune to flames...Its Defense is high, so try using Cudge, Boomer, Thudley, or any special attack. The three Dorguys enjoy springing this fearsome Chomp on unsuspecting travelers...

Bonechill. The most disappointing boss. 

He is an undead dragon with a large, blue-scaled head, six small, white-feathered wings on his back, and a large golden cannon with two wheels for a lower body. He is the leader of the Skellobit army and attempts a takeover of The Overthere. According to The InterNed, his theme is called "Bonechill Appears".

Tippi's tattle says that Bonechill may have once been a Nimbi, which is supported by the fact that he has feathered wings on his back. This fits into the overall motif of The Underwhere and The Overthere, which draw heavily from both Ancient Greek mythology and the Christian religion. In particular, the concept of a fallen angel (Nimbi) is inspired by the Biblical story of Lucifer, who became the devil after betraying God. Furthermore, in Dante's Inferno (of the epic Italian poem, the Divine Comedy), Lucifer (now known as Satan) is depicted as a giant, six-winged beast imprisoned in ice in the deepest circle of Hell. This is all paralleled by how Bonechill has six wings, was imprisoned deep below the Underwhere, and is a self-styled "master of the cold dark" who uses ice breath to attack and is "something of an evil celebrity in certain circles of the Underwhere". Similarly, his being released during an apocalyptic event (the emergence of The Void) may be derived from the Book of Revelation, where Satan escapes from hell and he and his army are battled and defeated in heaven.

 Fun facts: In the Japanese version, Bonechill used the archaic zansu conjugation of the auxiliary verb gozaimasu at the end of each sentence, which is typically used to characterize older, snobby, social-climbing females in fiction.

Bonechill is one of the two bosses in the game whose looks change as the player damages him; his scales begin to fall off as his HP declines. The other is Mimi, who gradually loses her legs over the course of the battle.

Bonechill will only be hurt by attacks to his head...To hit his head you'll need Luigi's super jump, or Thoreau to toss icicles...Bonechill's icy breath can freeze you into a soild herocicle...I don't know why, but I get the feeling he's related to Grambi and the Nimbis...I wonder if he was once a...

I'm not even going to bother putting up another image. Is O'chunks. 

Yehah, you guessed, is Mimi!, the creepy copycat.

Not again, this...

This one makes me want to talk. But, I already did it in a previous part, so go check it out >:) 

Well, the next one is Super Dimentio, BUT, I'll make a future part with all the info. Stay noticed!

Now, we'll check the most powerful bosses: the optionals. Let's keep goin'!

The first one of 'em. With all of you: Wracktail!!

Wracktail is a giant, lavender robotic dragon that appears in Super Paper Mario. He stated that he was a wrathful god who was locked away by the Tribe of Ancients, and Tippi says that he was the prototype for Fracktail, who looks identical to Wracktail except for his color. Before the fight, he expresses anger at the heroes for disturbing his slumber and decides to kill them in turn. Wracktail is found at the bottom of the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials and upon his defeat, Dashell, a Pixl, is obtained, and a Pipe appears, leading Mario and company back to the entrance of the Pit. Just as Fracktail is the Super Paper Mario equivalent of Hooktail from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Wracktail is the counterpart to Bonetail.

To defeat Wracktail, the same tactics must be utilized as those used to defeat Fracktail. The player must wait for the boss to dive low along the ground, then jump on his back and use Thoreau to grab the Wrackles and throw them and Wracktail's antenna, which must be hit 30 times to defeat the dragon. It is also possible to damage the antenna by stomping it, either via Luigi's super jump, or by landing on it when Wracktail flies in a loop. (A/N: By the way, this made me feel so fool. Because I wanted to defeat him in the conventional way 'cause a Video tutorial, but, not being able to defeat him, I did arduous research until I realized that I could defeat him with Luigi :/ )

Upon defeat, Wracktail warns the heroes that he was not the only monster created by the Ancients, referring to Shadoo, and directs them to the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials.

Fun facts:  Contrary to what his Catch Card description in English versions claims, Wracktail is only ten times stronger than Fracktail, not 100 times.

His Catch Card description in the Japanese version claims he is Fracktail's "father" and simply mentions that he is stronger than his "son" despite fighting the same way. It also does not directly mention his status as the boss of the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials, instead stating that he lurks "somewhere in this world".

Unlike Fracktail, who speaks almost entirely in capital letters, Wracktail's speech is in the game's standard style. This is partially reversed in the Japanese version, where Fracktail only lapses into mostly-katakana speech when "scanning" Mario and while under Dimentio's spell, and Wracktail speaks entirely in katakana and kanji with katakana furigana. (A/N: I don't even know what does it means 🫥🫥)

Additional information:

Catch card: 181

HP:  ?? (30 hits)

Attack: 10

Defense: 

Score: 9990

Card description: This baddest baddie in the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. He may fight like Fracktail, but he's 100 times stronger.

Tattle: That's Wracktail, the very menacing lord of the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. Max HP is ??. Attack is 10. It can fly and swoop down with its big open mouth... I think this is a prototype of an improved Fracktail from the Yold Desert... The Ancients must have built it. But like Fracktail, its antenna is its weak spot...

Omg, I didn't notice that I've never do a chap with Shadoo!! I'll fix it, I promise in the new part along with Superdimentio. I apologize. 

Now yes, the last one! 

The guardian of the 100th and final gate. His name is fittingly a reference to the last boss in a game. When End Boss is defeated, he attempts to cue end credits. End Boss can breathe fire, use a rolling attack, and attack with his club. Despite his name, it is possible for him to not be the final boss, as the player can battle Wracktail and Shadoo after him.

Additional info: 

As strange as it may seem, it does not have catch card, idk. 

Max HP 99

Attack 10

 Defense 4

 Size Big

Color Gold

 Weapon Spiked

 Club Special abilities Fire Breath, Rolling, Fast

Spiked? Yes (A/N: Would someone be kind enough to tell me what it means?)

Tattle: That's End Boss, one of King Sammer's famous Sammer Guys… He won a Sammy at last year's Sammer Awards for Best Final Boss Performance…

And those would be (almost) all the bosses in the game. Now, a challenge for you: If this publication reaches more than 150 notes, I will make a part listing all the Samiteros, by name and surname.

Propaganda

Marsha Hunt (The Human Comedy, College Holiday, These Glamour Girls)—To be honest, I haven't had the chance to see a lot of her films, but she was an amazing person. A beautiful, popular actress during the 30s and 40s, Marsha was unfairly blacklisted during the Red Scare for speaking out against McCarthyism. Instead of letting that stop her, she focused her efforts on humanitarian work for causes such as world hunger, poverty, and pollution. She was also a support of same-sex marriage. Side note to any fellow fashion history nerds, she wrote a book on 30s-40s fashion. She stayed true to her beliefs through the years, and passed away at the age of 104 in 2022.

Fredi Washington (Imitation of Life, The Emperor Jones)—She was a beautiful woman whose movie career was struck short because she refused to pass as white, but she did get to star with the greats like Cab Calloway, Hattie McDaniel, Paul Robeson, Duke Ellington, Louise Beavers, etc. Being a person of moral and conviction is hot. Also, she knew ballet and was a beautiful dancer in general.

This is round 2 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Marsha Hunt:

Marsha Hunt first signed with Paramount in 1935 at the age of seventeen, kicking off a prolific career as a beloved Hollywood star and fashion model. Her distinctive profile and facial structure earned her the nickname “Curly Lips”: “Besides a rounded forehead, almost no nose bridge, and a nose that curved upwards, even my lips curled up at the corners. Ronald Coleman and his wife Benita told me they used to describe me to each other as ‘Curly Lips.’ I decided that anything that helped two people I adored take notice of me would no longer keep me awake at nights.” (The Way We Wore, p.95) Marsha appeared in about seventy films over almost eighty years, including Hollywood Boulevard, College Holiday, Easy Living, These Glamour Girls, Irene, Pride and Prejudice, Blossoms in the Dust, Thousands Cheer, The Human Comedy, and many more. She was blacklisted during the McCarthy era for publicly defending Hollywood from the accusations of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, alongside Lucille Ball, Humphrey Bogart, Deanna Durbin, Henry Fonda, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, and many other members of the Hollywood community.

Fredi Washington propaganda:

Short Hollywood career for being too light-skinned to play maid roles, but too brown to be cast opposite a white man in the time. Civil Rights activist. Worked with Paul Robeson to create the Negro Actors Guild. Heavy work in theatre and the NAACP.

Summary:

At the Queen Mother 's birthday party, Marshal Tianpeng coveted Fairy Chang'e's beauty and pursued her daringly, so he was punished by the Jade Emperor and demoted to earth. During the escort, Marshal Tianpeng broke free from his shackles and wanted to escape, but he was accidentally reincarnated as a pig. In order to help Zhu Bajie, Guanyin Bodhisattva gave him Ganoderma lucidum, and Zhu Bajie's appearance changed from a pig to a pig's head and a human body. Zhu Bajie couldn't bear the humiliation and flew back to heaven to seek an explanation from the Jade Emperor, but was ridiculed by his former lieutenant Fudi. In order to retaliate against Fudi, Zhu Bajie dug up the Tianhe River, and Fudi was demoted to the human world. Tu Tu invited Zhu Bajie to be the security guard of his temple. Zhu Bajie drove away the wild boars that often caused trouble, but he could not deal with the cunning mice. Fudi therefore harbored a grudge against Zhu Bajie, and the two began to battle wits in the human world, which led to a series of hilarious and humorous stories.
