thinking about the rosberg family and how a kardashian or dts style documentary about them would be amazing.
you have keke rosberg, a hard racing cigar smoking legend of motorsport from one of it's most dangerous eras, whose name literally means pixie rose mountain. the man who basically invented formula one in finland but was hated by his own media for being too cosmopolitan and when they tried to recognise his achievements refused to let them put his face on a postage stamp because he wouldn't make money off of it. studied to be a dentist but missed the entrance exam and became a racing driver instead. got out of having to take german in school by persuading the master that he would never need it but as soon as he met a hot older german woman went so insane over her that he proposed just months after meeting her and agreed to make it their primary language at home. set a record for the fastest lap in f1 history that lasted until 2004, won his first f1 race and then won a world championship before he won his second. known as a crazy racer who would go through you if you didn't let him past. also the softest dad who loves his baby boy more than anything else.
then there's sina, the coolest person in the rosberg family. was so hot and smart and talented that a man willingly sacrificed his cultural identity to be her husband. professional interpreter who knows a bunch of languages and taught them to her polyglot son. married a f1 world champion but hated his driving so much that she drove herself everywhere, even to events that she attended with him. showed up finland's independence day ball in a suit and bow tie against all dress customs. planned to give birth on her own because it's basically the same thing as going to the dentist, and she doesn't need a man for that. has an f1 champion husband and son and still banned f1 talk in her house for nico's entire career. got so nervous watching her baby race that she vacuumed the entire apartment each time. ditched her husband in dubai so that she could make it to the track to see nico become world champion in person. got drunk and talked about keke's sperm on live television.
nico rosberg, the saddest wettest kitten who ever lived. the most beloved baby in the world. cried at everything as a child. cried when he lost at tennis and when he won. uber competitive. incredibly athletic, competing internationally in karting and tennis. total nerd who had no trouble with his schoolwork despite missing school constantly and got accepted into imperial college london to study engineering. at the time the youngest person to ever drive an f1 car. the biggest single cause of sexuality crises in motorsport since 2006. was once sponsored by the german version of mtv. nicknamed after a teen pop sensation. met the love of his life when he was four and hit her over the head with a bucket while they were making sandcastles. had an incredibly difficult incredibly public divorce from a man he was never legally married to. dropped the mic said thank u, next and is so so happy in his retirement. has stripped down to his underwear on television and done a river clean up in designer coats. boy mom to an orange cat, girl dad to human children. loves his daughters more than anything, the kind of man who will leave a 2 million dollar car on a hill to hitchhike, with his videographer, to his daughters's christmas party. can pinpoint the amount of time lost in a corner exactly and needs everyone to know about it. deeply annoying, absolutely hilarious, incredibly kind.
and of course, vivian. ceo of the rosberg family. still planning the long game revenge on nico for hitting her with a bucket when they were children, born in germany, studied design in milan, can party harder than f1 drivers. has done the interior design for private jets, because apparently that's a thing. owner, creator and namesake of the best rated ice cream shop in the balearics. makes her daughters matching outfits for a taylor swift concert and publicly teases her husband for not being a fan. stages elaborate christmas photos with a different colour theme every year. wore a white dress with turquoise louboutins and chanel bag to match nico's race suit in one of the most iconic and yet deeply underappreciated wag moments in f1 history. ruined them with champagne but didn't care. wants her children to be happy. definitely pegs her husband.
most interesting motorsport family of all time. forget dts, i just want to know about them
#the chances of this happening are less than zero#but. i want it#rosberg family#keke rosberg#nico rosberg#sina rosberg#vivian rosberg

Theatre Deep Dive: David Tennant in Hurlyburly (1997)
In today's spotlight on David Tennant's theatre career, we'll feature 1997's production of Hurlyburly by David Rabe, and David's role as Mickey.
By 1997, David was coming off two years of successful theatre. In 1995 he'd been nominated for Best Supporting Actor in the MENTA Awards and Best Actor at the British Regional Theatre Awards for his role as Kenny in An Experienced Woman Gives Advice.
In 1996 he'd completed four theatre roles: Tom Wingfield in The Glass Menagerie at the Dundee Rep, and Touchstone in As You Like It, Jack Lane in The Herbal Bed, and Alexander Hamilton in The General From America in Stratford and London for the Royal Shakespeare Company.
He took a day off from The Glass Menagerie rehearsals to go to London to audition for Orlando in As You Like It, and while he didn't get that role, he did bag the role of Touchstone. Follow this link if you want to read most of an extensive essay he wrote about playing that part...while he was playing it!
David won rave reviews for all these roles, including a Theatre Management Award nomination for Best Actor for 'The Glass Menagerie.' His Royal Shakespeare Company performances were all sell-outs, and in particular, his portrayal of Touchstone was noted as a standout performance. And while David had played many previous theatre roles, up to that point Touchstone had been the longest he'd played any part. He inhabited the role of Touchstone for almost an entire year - from 18 April 1996 (his 25th birthday) to the run's close on 29 March 1997. During the run, he'd injured his ankle.
Also, keep in mind he was simultaneously doing his other roles in The Herbal Bed and The General From America! The General From America ran from July to October 1996 in Stratford and from February to April of 1997 in London; The Herbal Bed ran from May to September 1996 in Stratford, and from October 1996 to January 1997 in London.
He was a BUSY boy indeed!
His next role - as Mickey in David Rabe's blisteringly caustic play Hurlyburly, would take him for the first time to the West End's Queen's Theatre (now the Sondheim Theatre). A transfer of the Peter Hall Company's March to April 1997 production at the Old Vic, the Queen's production would run from August to November 1997.
There's a belief in the DT fandom that David played the role of Mickey in both runs - at the Old Vic and at the Queen's. That's false. The only three actors who transferred their roles from the Old Vic were Rupert Graves as Eddie, Andy Serkis as Phil, and Susannah Doyle as Bonnie. David replaced Daniel Craig (yes, THAT Daniel Craig!) as Mickey. At the Old Vic, Stephen Dillane had played Artie, Elizabeth McGovern had played Darlene, and Kelly MacDonald (yes, THAT Kelly MacDonald!) was Donna. At the Queen's, Mark Benton played Artie, Jenny Seagrove played Darlene, and Jessica Watson was Donna.
Photos of Hurlyburly from its Old Vic run
Weirdly, neither Graves nor Seagrove were supposed to star in the Queen's run. Ethan Hawke and Patsy Kensit were!
But Hawke - who would've made his London stage debut - walked out after a day's rehearsal and Kensit followed the next day. So Graves and Seagrove stepped in.
According to its programme, Hurlyburly was originally scheduled to begin previews on 14 August 1997. But because of its casting problems, it seems it began its run a week later, on 21 August? Yet newspapers give dates anywhere from 13 August to 28 August. So I'm really not certain of the exact date.
It was performed with American accents, too!
The director of Hurlyburly was Wilson Milam. Doctor Who fans will recognize the name, as Milam later went on to direct 2003's Scream of the Shalka - a well-known series, one where David featured in an uncredited cameo role as the Caretaker!
Hurlyburly ran for 2 hours and 40 minutes and began at 8pm on Mondays through Saturdays. There was one interval. Its weekday Wednesday matinee began at 3pm, and its Saturday matinee began at 4pm. Tickets ran anywhere from £7.50 to £24.
But what's Hurlyburly about? Set in the Hollywood Hills during the excesses of the 80s, it centers on divorced Hollywood casting directors Eddie and Mickey, and their associates Phil and Artie. In six scenes across the space of twelve months, they hurtle towards self-destruction.
These men hate everything: themselves, their friends, the movie industry, and especially women. Their language pours out in crude torrents of hostility and violence. They snort lines, drink, mistreat women, and shout at each other. A LOT. The women in their lives are just there to use and discard. Their girlfriends are annoying props, other women are sex objects or boring and pitiful, they've abandoned their children, and their ex-wives are the focus of undying and vicious disdain.
The production got rave reviews, and Rupert Graves was nominated for the 1998 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor. David also got great reviews! His Mickey made an impression as a "mocking and maddeningly self-possessed," "self-controlled, empty" and "cynical outsider". He thought himself a charming God's gift to women type, but had a "detachment that becomes chilling."
Given the amount of photographs taken from the Old Vic run of Hurlyburly, you'd think there would be more photos taken from its Queen's run featuring David. But…no? There's only this one from the programme, and one of him in a blue shirt:
Now for some Trivia Time! During Hurlyburly's run, its assisant director, Charlotte Bond, asked David for a favor. She was going to be involved in a play later that year at the Edinburgh Festival called Tamagotchi Heaven and she wondered if he'd be willing to film a small cameo role for the piece.
He agreed, filmed it in about an hour, and promptly forgot about it - until a 2008 Chain Reaction radio interview he did with Catherine Tate reminded him of it. Because she'd SEEN it, and somehow recognized him from it....even though they hadn't yet met! Here's the interview where they speak of it (it's 2 minutes in):
youtube
And that, my friends, is what I know of the story of Hurlyburly. I hope you enjoyed it!

Fourteen becomes convinced that the Bentley is the Tardis whose chameleon circuit has somehow fixed itself and/or another tardis and takes it for a joyride?
More misadventures of 2023 DT characters getting into other 2023 DT characters' modes of transportation.
Warning: again, ignore that the show version of Doctor Who exists in Good Omens canon. This isn't tied to the other fic, this one is just if the situation was reversed.
On with the fic!
--
The Doctor stared at the beautiful, shiny Bentley that had honked at them, yet there was no driver in sight. No one was hiding in the back seats, nor down in the area when your feet go.
"Hello there." The Doctor greeted, and jumped when it honked at them in reply. They blinked, then felt a grin grow on their face. "Oh ho! Friendly, aren't you?"
They had never seen a car react to them before like this, and it had them curious. They put a hand on the hood, gently patting it. There was a strange feeling coming from the metal, a sentience, which most automobiles do not have, at least no in this time period.
Was this the TARDIS? Had her chameleon circuit finally decided to work correctly again? Or had the old girl decided she need a change and allow the circuit to work?
"Look at you, you're a real beauty like this! Didn't take you for a fan of the classic cars! Is this because of Betsy? Mind you, she was a reliable, ol' car!"
The Bentley honked again at the Doctor, making a grumbling sound at them from the engine even though it wasn't weren't running.
"Ah? Not my TARDIS then? Hmm, I see, I see." They nodded and walked over to the driver's side. "Mind if I have a look inside?"
The door unlocked and they grinned. "Much obliged!" They patted the top of the car before slipping inside, finding it miraculously well adjusted for their current height, with no uncomfortable issues of having to pull their long legs up to their chest in order to fit!
The inside of the Bentley was well kept, very clean, everything looked original, minus the CD and cassette player that clearly shouldn't be, but seemed as if they had been built into the dashboard when she was first produced.
Was she a TARDIS? Seemed like only a TARDIS or a really good shimmer could pull off that trick. "Let's see, how do we go about checking your..."
There was a click and the lights of the dash came on, and so did the radio, as the engine started to purr. The Doctor laughed as the song Starman by David Bowie began to play. "Outstanding! Loving the music choice, aren't you a clever thing?"
There was a happy rumble from the engine.
"Now, can you give me any information on who your pilot is? Not every day I find a sentient vehicle in 21st century London!"
The music seemed to change and now the Doctor heard Queen begin to play, specifically Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy. How... odd?
"Hey! What the heaven are you-!? Get out of there!"
The Doctor turned their attention away from the radio to look at the approaching figure. They stared at them in surprise, it was like looking in a mirror!
A mirror that favored putting you in a retired rock star's outfit, but that was made up for by that brilliant shade of red hair the stranger was sporting!
Ooh, they always knew they could pull off ginger!
"That's your pilot, I take it?" They asked and the Bentley honked. "You're not a TARDIS, are you?"
Another honk, one that sounded like an apology.
"Ah, it's alright, you're just as lovely, and just as fascinating as one, you beauty!"
There was another happy car sound as the stranger stopped at the door, throwing it open. "Out. Now."
"Right, yes, apologies. Sorry, I thought she was my TARDIS and then she let me get inside and poke about, fascinating set up in there! What sort of-"
"Shut up and explain to me how the heck you got her to be blue!? You're as bad as the angel with his yellow!"
"Blue?" The Doctor turned and looked, oh! "Oh, look at you!" They grinned.
The Bentley was now a gorgeous shade of TARDIS blue, how curious!
--
I think Crowley might like Fourteen's company, but isn't too pleased about a stranger getting into the Bentley and her changing color. Again.
Also, I just realized you asked for a joyride, whoops. Maybe next time? :D Fourteen drives the Bentley, Crowley drives the TARDIS?

Ugh.. several cool people (lgbt, politics, general coolness) I follow on twitter suddenly reacted to the Olivier best actor list, which never happened and the reaction wasn't even mixed, just outright disappointed. Like, it's the safect, most boring possible list with no diversity and no originality, just famous people. The only ones to get feeble cheers from a couple were Andrew and Mark, and I'm not even sure any of them even saw any of the plays, they seemed to just react to names. DT and JF were the worst offenders to them, for some reason they think DT's been showered with awards already and is some kind of industry golden boy. And the worst thing, one of the coolest lgbt ones turned out to be a genuine DT hater, turns out he's been tweeting about the recent DW eps, I just missed it, I searched his tw and his DT hating goes all the way back to 2010s with all those takes how he can't act and is 'one of the most pointless and fake celebrities'... I know it's childish and ridic but I'm honestly upset, and not sure if I unfollow (because of a celebrity take? just dumb) or try to compartmentalize, think I'll try the latter but idk if it's really worth the strain. Heh. I know it's funny and immature, and that's why you shouldn't get parasocial, but it's sorta real as well.
I think it’s totally fine for some people to not like him since even though he’s not showered with awards he’s incredibly well loved and can’t even do stage door because it would be insane. Also it IS a very white list this year so I get people being mad but genuinely those were the good plays this year perhaps someone should talk to London producers/theatres about why theatre, which has traditionally been one of the most diverse artistic forms in the UK was so darn white this year

Cập nhật cho năm 2023: Mình đã đổi dt từ Samsung J3 thành Iphone 11 :)))) thiệt là 1 hành trình dài:))
Và đây là post đầu tiên trên Ip mới nên mình sẽ viết về Anh (I mean London:)))
Trước tiên, mình phải nghe London boy của Taylor Swift nhaa❤️
Tại sao Anh gắn liền với Big Bên và xe buýt 2 tầng!? Đơn giản để giải thích thì đây la 2 hình ảnh quen thuộc mỗi ngày và mọi nơi.
Trên xe buýt, họ chỉ chấp nhận thanh toán bằng thẻ thui nha, Ko tiền mặt. Do mình ở ngắn ngày nên tui tap thẻ Visa luôn (vô cùng tiện lợi). Bạn mình Ko có thẻ, chỉ có tiền mặt, và mình đã tap 2 lần lúc lên, nhưng Ko được.
Waoooo nha vì sự to lớn và kiến trúc lịch sử lâu đời
Lạnh lắm nên mình chụp vài tấm làm kỷ niệm rồi mặc áo phao vào:))
Tranh thủ làm clip tiktok, hy vọng sau này, những clip này giúp mình ghi điểm trong mắt nha tuyển dụng.
Ví dụ như, e có thể edit tiktok, e có thể săn vé Era tour của Taylor swift, e có thể chịu lạnh mà Ko 1 lời cảm thán :))

Hilarious moment Daniel Ricciardo hits McLaren teammate Lando Norris in the face with a space hopper
Hilarious moment Daniel Ricciardo hits McLaren teammate Lando Norris in the face with a space hopper as pair prepare to resume their rivalry at British Grand Prix Daniel Ricciardo has smacked his teammate with a childhood space hopper toy Norris was visibly caught off guard by the shot to the face before the British GP Aussie has placed ahead of Norris at last two races after facing heavy pressure By Stirling Taylor For Daily Mail Australia Published: 23:32 EDT, 30 June 2022 | Updated: 23:33 EDT, 30 June 2022 McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo took a cheeky shot at teammate Lando Norris before Sunday's British Grand Prix - smacking the youngster square in the face with a space hopper toy in a mock race at Silverstone. Both drivers were asked to take part in a comical race on happy hoppers at the famous track in Northamptonshire, 120km north-west of London. Norris and Ricciardo took off down the straight, with the Aussie quickly getting into a winning rhythm and taking off past Norris within seconds. The British driver wasn't going to cop that, so he stood up with toy in hand and ran past the former Red Bull star. Ricciardo jumps off his happy hooper and launches it into the face of McLaren teammate Lando Norris - who was caught off guard by the toy shot Ricciardo smooths over his hit on teammate Lando Norris before the two take on the Silverstone circuit for the British GP on July 4 Ricciardo then launched his hopper into Norris's unsuspecting face, taking him completely by surprise before the two laughed it off. F1 Reaction Pictures posted the funny stunt to Twitter with the caption: 'Wait till DTS sees this', referring to the infamous Drive To Survive Netflix series that follows the drama of the F1 circuit. Ricciardo later tweeted with the sole caption: 'He's ok', which got him 125,000 likes. McLaren has had a tough season to date, sitting fourth in the constructors championship as Ricciardo's future as an F1 driver has come under intense scrutiny. Ricciardo sits six places behind McLaren's poster boy Norris, who finished third in Italy and has 35 more points than the Australian. Team boss Andreas Seidl apologised to the pair after the Canadian Grand Prix when poor car adjustments led the McLaren drivers to finish 11th and 15th. 'We didn’t give Lando or Daniel the package they deserved today, so we have to offer them an apology,' the German 46-year-old said. 'We have to use this as an opportunity to learn, and come back stronger in two weeks for our home race at Silverstone.' Daniel Ricciardo leads the McLaren team with Lando Norris in pursuit at the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona Ricciardo's best finish for McLaren this season was sixth at the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne back in April, and there are persistent rumours that he will be replaced by American IndyCar star Colton Herta. The former Renault driver has eased the pressure placed on him in recent weeks, finishing ahead of Norris at both the Azerbaijan and Canadian Grand Prix.

Hello there. I just wanna say I love your MS/DT posts. I have to admit, I've been shipping them since I saw the interviews last year. And believe me, I tried not to, but there's something special between them. I've seen GO, Staged, their interviews and their chemistry is incredible. The way they treat each other is so soft and beautiful. Michael's totally smitten by him and David has his moments, too, although he controls himself better. And who knows, maybe they were/are secretly lovers.
Aw, thanks so much, Anon! Glad you’re digging the MS/DT posts. Also, the last line of your ask immediately got me thinking of a song called “Secret Lovers.” If you haven’t heard it, it’s this ‘80s slow jam and at least some of the lyrics are definitely reminiscent of our boys. Give it a listen when you have a chance and you’ll see what I mean. As to the rest of your comments, I feel you hard, Anon. I also tried not to ship them, but as I’ve said, Michael and David just keep doing and saying things that prevent me from not shipping them, so there you go. I agree with you about Michael being totally smitten, and David controlling himself better (although I love the brief moments where Michael’s attention is so intense that David almost loses a little bit of control).
Totally also agree about how they treat each other, and your description is spot-on. I was daydreaming about Michael’s recent stint in London for the play he was in, and hoping that he and David were able to get together while Michael was in town. And as hot as it is to imagine them having passionate, bed-shaking sex after so many months apart, I found myself picturing something more tender.
Like maybe Michael gave David a key to his hotel room, and when he came back from the theater, all knackered and spent after a full performance, there was David fresh out of the shower with just a towel wrapped around his waist, ready to greet Michael with a kiss. Michael’s too full of want, to full of need to deny him despite his tiredness, and he kisses David back, guiding him to the bed. David’s long fingers eagerly pull at Michael’s clothes, nudging up the hem of his shirt to trace over his stomach and Michael whispers sweet nothings against David’s lips.
And maybe they just laid in bed for a while watching an old movie on TV, Michael sitting against the pillows with one arm around David, threading a hand in his long, soft lockdown hair while David rests his head on Michael's chest, reaching up to toy with the coarse curls of his beard... “How did you describe it?”
Michael gazes down at him, watching David as he watches the movie, the light from the TV flickering over the plane of his forehead and the line of his angular jaw.
“Cuddly. Big, cuddly beard.”
You are a wonder, Michael thinks, overwhelmed with a desire to draw his beard across every inch of David’s bare skin. He longs to rub it against David’s sensitive inner thighs until he is red and wanting, inhaling the scent of David’s arousal as each feather light touch threatens to unravel him...
“Well, go on. Is it?”
“Mhm,” David murmurs, his hand sliding to Michael’s cheek, tilting his head up for another kiss. It’s somehow filthy and chaste at the same time, and it makes Michael love him even more.
“Can confirm. Very cuddly.”
...Just being close like that, enjoying each other’s company, because that’s the one thing Michael and David haven’t been able to do for all these months, and the thing that’s arguably been the hardest to do without. How perfect and lovely that would be. (Of course, the sex would come later, because they wouldn’t be able to resist each other for long. But that’s a whole other story...)
#anonymous#reply post#michael sheen#welsh seduction machine#david tennant#soft scottish hipster gigolo#freestyle smut#i didn't mean to write a thing but i wrote a thing#these idiots just bring it out of me#what can i say#their chemistry is and always will be amazing#i love them so#good omens rpf#fanfic#discourse

DT: MARCH 7, 2019
THE STRAY CATS 40:
BRIAN SETZER, LEE ROCKER AND SLIM JIM PHANTOM
RETURN TO CELEBRATE THEIR 40TH ANNIVERSARY THIS YEAR
WITH NEW ALBUM AND TOUR
ORIGINAL FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE ACCLAIMED
AMERICAN ROCK AND ROLL TRIO SET OFF SPARKS ON '40,'
THEIR FIRST NEW ALBUM IN 26 YEARS
All revved up and red hot, The Stray Cats are back.
Brian Setzer (guitar, vocals), Lee Rocker (bass, vocals) and Slim Jim Phantom (drums, vocals)--original founding members of the iconic and acclaimed American rock and roll trio--are celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2019 with a new album and tour (*see tour dates below).
The STRAY CATS have titled the album 40. Marking their first new album in 26 years, it will be released May 24 via Surfdog Records and distributed by BMG (CD, vinyl, digital). The song titles alone--including "Cat Fight (Over A Dog Like Me)," "Rock It Off," "Mean Pickin' Mama" and "Devil Train"--instantly let listeners know they're in for a non-stop rocking time.
The first instant grat track, "Cat Fight (Over A Dog Like Me)," is available now with a pre-order of the album. The song is also streaming on Spotify. An exclusive indie-store edition of the album--colored vinyl, with a double-sided 24x12 poster--will arrive on May 24: http://smarturl.it/StrayCats
In addition, The STRAY CATS are releasing an exclusive 12" picture disc with three songs--"Cat Fight (Over A Dog Like Me), "When Nothing's Going Right" and "Rock It Off"--on April 13, Record Store Day.
The STRAY CATS begin their select U.S. dates on August 3 on the heels of June and July overseas shows. Tickets for the shows go on sale Friday, March 8 at 10:00 AM (local time).
The STRAY CATS recorded 40 at Blackbird Studios in Nashville in late 2018 following their first North American shows in 10 years, with four concerts including sold-out headlining shows in Las Vegas and the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, CA before wildly enthusiastic audiences. Still buzzing from the thrill of playing together again and the crowd response, they went into the studio with producer Peter Collins (Rush, Bon Jovi, The Brian Setzer Orchestra) and engineer Vance Powell (Jack White, Chris Stapleton, Arctic Monkeys). There are a dozen original songs that comprise the album.
Here's what the guys have to say:
Brian Setzer: "You have to understand how unique the Stray Cats are. It's me playing an old hollow body guitar, Slim Jim playing two or three drums, and Lee Rocker slapping a stand-up acoustic bass. I get to write new songs and then play them with my buddies. Somehow we created a new and exciting sound with this simple idea. And you know what? A lot of people agree!"
Lee Rocker: "This new album really feels like the first record we did, it's really natural and comfortable. For the recording, we went live--like doing a gig, we recorded in a real, organic way. We were all in one room standing next to each other recording live, with the amps turned up to 10, it captured the undefinable things that happen when a band is great, it captured the magic that takes place and an undefined spark."
Slim Jim Phantom: "We're very, very focused when we get into the studio, it didn't feel like a long time had passed since we had done this, it felt very natural and familiar. We were all in a row with everyone watching each other, so it felt like a gig in the set-up. We really embraced that a little bit for the album, it's like an old way of making records. The modern is meeting the vintage, which has always been our inspiration."

About The STRAY CATS:
The STRAY CATS, the band that put Rockabilly music back on the record charts in the early '80s, scored several big hits on both sides of the Atlantic thanks to a striking visual 1950's style brought "up to date" with exaggerated pompadours and colorful tattoos and as well as genuine musical chops that evoked the best players of rockabilly's original heyday. Formed by guitarist/vocalist Brian Setzer, upright bass player Lee Rocker and drummer Slim Jim Phantom in the Long Island town of Massapequa, NY, in 1979, the trio shared a love for Rockabilly music. After banging around New York for a few months, in the summer of 1980, and seeing a pompadoured kid on the cover of UK magazine NME, they hopped a plane to London where a rockabilly revival movement was just beginning to emerge. Their massive hits and videos include "Runaway Boys," "Rock This Town," "Stray Cat Strut" "(She's) Sexy + 17," and "I Won't Stand in Your Way."

2 things so...
tagged by @narnianwitch ♥
rules: shuffle your ‘on repeat’ playlist and post the first 10 tracks, then list 10 songs you really like, each by a different artist. then tag 10 people to do the same thing
10 tracks from my "on repeat" playlist :
Nightwish - Over the hills and far away
Sum 41 - Screaming Bloody Murder
Don McLean - American Pie
Stereophonics - All in One Night
The Dead South - Broken Cowboy
The Killers - My God
Colter Wall - Johnny Boy's Bones
Crooked Colours - Flow
Pet Shop Boys - Go West
Weezer - I Need Some of That
10 tracks I really like, each by a different artist :
(I went to way too many concerts this year so I'll pick each by bands I saw, trying to not put from one already in the first list...)
Alcest - Autre Temps
POWERWOLF - Blood For Blood (Faoladh)
Simple Plan - I'm just a Kid
Passenger - The Way That I Love You
Luke Sital-Singh - Nothing Stays The Same
Ed Sheeran - You Need Me, I Don't Need You
Green Day - Holiday
The Lathums - Fight On
Elton John - Have Mercy on the Criminal
My Chemical Romance - Thank You for the Venom
Please do it if you want ♥
2. Off to London for two days (going to see 3 plays and Lisa Eldrige's shop, so excited!!!). I'll probably post about it more on twitter or instagram than here... and after, in the family. The queue is set up until almost New Year 🥴
Wishing you all happy holidays! Take care ♥
okay so here are my reactions for the plays!
Mother Goose:
Amazing! Great great show, silly just like I like. You forget everything for two hours! Lot of fandom jokes -Lotr for Ian obviously, as a comedian and DW for John.
A few jokes à la Shrek, meaning that the kid will laugh but the adults will get the real meaning ;)
And lucky enough to see John Bishop before the show, just as I was coming back from my run to Sainsbury's.
Good
Well honestly I was so exhausted from the day, and it's pretty heavy to get. Lot of characters played by the other actors with DT, the switch was nicely done but damn you have to stay focus.
Much as The Crucicle, I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. But we did get DT doing a song with a little dance and it was super cute!
After the show he did autographs, and after signing he was looking into your soul while saying thank you. A man (around 50) was overjoyed because he asked him to sign 'to Alonso' and he did. What a cutie!
(Also appreciating that he was also masked because I felt pretty lonely all day between the train, underground, shops and plays...)
#angélique makes text posts... sometimes#about me#who i am kidding 'more' like yeah i'll probably only post my pics of the plays' poster haha#thanks marina for the mention ♥♥♥

THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT TO HEAR MUST FEEL
This temporary apocalypse could be seen as a globally overdue Long Night of the Soul, an initiation of sorts which might result in a deeper understanding of what actually matters for human evolution (despite the very best efforts of the scum who are trying to reverse any spiritual progress because it weakens their hold.) There are several ways in which the negative side could truly take over, starting with the horror nightmare prospect of DT (aka ‘Just Another Scumbag’ as Bannon once called him) re ‘elected’. The realistic pessimist in me is sure that if he wins, this planet in this dimension is finished. His winning will be a final signal to the world to give us up. In my lifetime, we have never been so close to the mass breakout of totalitarianism and utter lack of empathy than we are now. Actual fascist populists, not some wet Liberal bleating but the real thing, ready to go live. Covid has bankrupted hundreds of thousands of businesses, millions have lost their jobs, migration from the truly poor and dangerous countries continues...into the becoming poor and dangerous countries. Those who live there and are already ruined by the disasters in every home will be easy prey for the populists. Speaking of whom...
Steve Bannon has spent a great deal of time and other people’s money in setting up a network to overthrow the (arf arf arf) ‘deep state’ and replace it with... a new deeper state...still run by the rich, who will use the populists, who in turn will use the mass of the angry and frightened...etc etc...And power, as most people recognise it, will stay in the hands of the unhuman swine with the most gold and the least soul. WER NICHT HOREN WILL, MUSS FUHLEN...
‘...the human nervous system properly programmed, can edit and orchestrate all experience into any gestalt it wishes. We encounter the same dismal and depressing experiences over and over again because they are repeating tape loops in the central programmer of our brains. We can encounter ecstasy over and over by learning the neurosciences that orchestrate all in coming signals into ecstatic tape loops.’ R.A.Wilson. Prometheus Rising, Hilaritas Press.
It takes a lot of effort and Will to do this but what else is worth it other than to attempt to break out of the vicious cycle and evolve? Even I have managed this when I focus on choosing it. Giving up ingrained behavioural habits often hurts; this is, however, a choice. It doesn’t have to unless you are a masochist.
Flew to England for three weeks in August, full flight sold out, all of us wore masks (apart from one 6 foot 6 mad eyed American who kept pacing up and down the cabin.) Right up to the point where we were all given a bottle of water, some crisps and two biscuits...All masks off at the same time, all passengers attempting not to breathe while we drank and ate. Love seeing how many in both countries wear masks under their nose or even only on their chin. As Bill Hicks would say ‘Any questions why we’re f.....d up as a race?’ As Jonathan Pie does say; ‘Put a f...... mask on.’ I have been coughing since February, and drinking heavily, so not especially optimistic about getting C19.
I avoided almost all of the news while in UK, watched five minutes in total on the TV and only read headlines in the paper. It was enough. Since I have been back in Prague I have continued to avoid the news other than that which I am told by friends and students but I can tell from daily receiving over one hundred emails that things are truly breaking. Hexagram 23 and total Weltschmerz is upon us. Mental health is twisting up globally. One by one, all my friends are suffering serious damage, one way or another. Hearts are breaking apart and many damnable souls, who should be burning, are not. People are afraid to breathe or to embrace, looking to the very worst set of leaders in my lifetime for answers and being manipulated en masse to mass crises.
(Jaz Coleman....On the Day the Earth went Mad...watch the video, listen. Feel. Weep. Rage. Change.) QUI NOLERUNT AUDIRE DEBERE SENTIRE.
Love the interviews I saw with those who voted for Trump and realised they made a mistake...after FOUR YEARS. What clued them in? Which particular excremental atrocity of his foulness gave them the alert? Will the Electoral College let him ‘win’? Before I left, I saw the Trump interview where he said ‘It is what it is’, with regard to the massive number of deaths in the USA. ‘We are below the world’. Blood pressure rising, I even checked his Twitter account where he published two letters, one from the eternally unlovely NRA and the other from the American Police Federation, assuring him he was the best president to ever serve their interest and they would back him to the hilt. His plan to stir the US up into open civil war continues and Putin sits back and smiles. As does Jared it seems, the smug sadist advisor in the same style as (England’s off Broadway Trump) Boris’s Dominic Cummings. Herd Immunity? Well yes it might work at some point after a few years and millions dead. You evil alien bastards. The main individuals in the British Government will make millions from a no deal Brexit, perfect timing. The country will die.
The newest PC bullshit has got even the wonderful JK Rowling into trouble just for speaking her mind politely about transgender issues. I love PC... it is how dumb useless Liberals can act out their secret fascist impulses and feel hard of c..k and wet of p...y...feel good to be so righteous... same with overly ill humoured religious folk, but the PC tribe cannot use God to justify anything so they are a bit weaker...You morons... ‘People who menstruate’, People with a cervix’? PEOPLE? Really? Women is a bad word is it? Too specific? (Well it has the word men in it, so seems almost inclusive.) You bastards are annihilating language; raping semantics...get another hobby you ridiculous cretins. (Be sure the populists well understand how to manipulate such fools.)
Extinction Rebellion is being used (among a multitude of other groups in other countries, hello Black Lives Matter) by the Kremlin to stir up shite, they are mostly well meaning on the road to Hell. Stop being so dumb and stop helping those who are against you at home and abroad. Dogmatic faith leads to mistrust, violence and hatred, says the lone derranger...And as for the absurd Q Anon, it is those who seek a Deeper State who are using you to do it. Well done.
Jacob Blake, shot seven (count them) times in the back by police even though charged with no crime and paralysed was handcuffed to hospital bed. That goofy twat of a 17 yr boy who wanted to be a policeman, shooting at blacks because he believed he had carte blanc (arf) from Trump to defend his country against ‘terrorists’...he will probably escape much punishment because... he was bullied at school...WHO WASNT?? The only people who weren’t were bullied at home. Guns ‘open carry’ in various states as the NRA rejoice in what they encourage. ‘Your first amendment means I can say your second amendment sucks d...s’. JimJeffries. Damn straight. By the time even I was 17, I had grown out of wanting to kill half the world. Wannabe cops are a little slower.
Everything is the new normal. Too late for a mid life crisis unless I die at 108 but I never forget that statistically there is more chance of being killed by death than anything else. ‘Heres to my love! O true apothecary! Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die.’ Walking... see three funeral services shops in the road leading to/away from the hospital, clever businessmen...walking...masks off, between two conveniently placed flower shops and smoking outside the fuming crematorium in black suits and highly polished shoes. Waiting. That’s us.
I MISS YOU MARLENE. I MISS YOU MARLENE. I MISS YOU MARLENE. Nice headline seen on US newspaper...‘Can any good from cyberstalking your online crush?’I wondered that after falling in fascination with a woman in Germany who wrote like a poet and wove a spell of stories to charm and beguile. I would have walked from London to Hamburg to see if she was real. Everyone expresses love and the need for it in different ways. Reprogramming a deeply imprinted circuit is usually uncomfortable and so it proved for both of us. We shall see...if there is time. ‘One of us is crazy and the other one’s insane’
I can remember one of the days I Changed (seven years old?) We had a history lesson and were told about English kings and their ‘Divine Right’ to rule. Because God told them. And they told the people. And the people believed them. I remember the light in the classroom, where I was sitting, the smell of the tables, old unused ink wells, pencil shavings... and just thinking whatever a child’s version of F..K OFF...THATS BULLSHIT ISNT IT? would have been. That was the first moment I started questioning the class system, gullibility and bastards. A couple of years later, the absolute freedom of being, sent to collect the class register, walking down the empty corridors and not in the classroom...a beautiful feeling of being OUTSIDE. Free. Two of many experiences which have never left me. (The Angel Choir, the Rituals, the EYE across the Multiverse dream, the Reconnection...) Even if Freedom turns out to be as much of an illusion as everything else, it is still as beautifully sensual to me as music.
One summer night in 1990 after my 3rd breakdown, I had a dream. I think. Bear (or even bare) with me on this, I know how this sounds but it is only reporting what I saw in my mind. Two Aliens, thin and shadow like, came though my open bedroom door in the night (I could see the silhouettes) and one took a long shiny silver needle like a hypodermic for a horse and stood behind me and pushed the needle in through the top and centre of my skull, penetrating my brain. I FELT it slowly being pushed in, it hurt but I was paralysed. There was no voice but I heard (try not to laugh) ‘So now you have Superintelligence’. They moved out, the door closed, I slept. As usual with me, I remember every single dream I have ever remembered as if they were films I have watched over and over...and after a dream, the atmosphere stays with me for 23 whores. Later that day, I picked a big hardback book to find some info on something (A Cyclopaedia) with pages as thin as a bible. I sat almost motionless and without food for eight hours, DEVOURING every subject in it. Economics, geometry, geopolitical events, medicine, beliefs, systems.....the next day I finished ninety percent of it and went on to read books by five philosophers from second hand shops, started watching insects, stopped swearing, worked out, and read and read and read. All the knowledge I hadn’t cared about in school and college I picked up that one summer. It led to making new friends, new possibilities, new work, new love and led me to fly to Prague in this sequence while continuing to practice many ‘New age’ techniques by a writer called Stuart Wilde. They all worked and I continued...with regular fallings and breakthroughs.
‘Religion was invented when the first scoundrel met the first fool’. Faith is believing what you know not be true’. The seeker finds a belief and stops thinking for themselves...‘Every ideology is a mental murder, a reduction of dynamic living processes to static classifications, and every classification is a Damnation, just as every inclusion is an exclusion.’RAW
I had a four hour conversation with a Christian bloke, thirty, intelligent, believes in Satan as an actual being with horns. Etc. He couldn’t quite see any flaw in saying that any prophet who saw angels, white light and heard the voice of God, healed, etc but was not actually Christ, was only being tempted and used by the devil. He told me to watch the beautiful side of evil...
‘Every act of authority is, in fact, an invasion of the psychic and physical territory of another’. Human progress ‘is the concrete manifestation of some person’s refusal to bow to Authority.’
‘WE GOT ELECTED ON DRAIN THE SWAMP, LOCK HER UP, BUILD THE WALL. THIS WAS PURE ANGER. ANGER AND FEAR IS WHAT GETS PEOPLE TO THE POLLS. THE DEMOCRATS DON'T MATTER, THE REAL OPPOSITION IS THE MEDIA, and the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit.’ Said Bannon, who also said. ‘Darkness is good. Dick Cheney. Darth Vader. Satan. Thats power.’ Has he met Putin yet? Is he also on speed dial along with Boris and Trump? People! Create better leaders. NOW.
Happy birthday Aleister Crowley on the 12th October and Happy Halloween to all readers, stay healthy and sane (arf) Remember you are magick...buy the re-release of Musick to Play in the Dark by COIL and become moonlight... And those in America, if you actually do truly believe in a good God...go and vote and remove that evil ego and his cohorts in the White House with absolute overwhelming victory or we are done in this lifetime. Be healthy.
LOVE!!!
