Astrological observations n3

The rising signs part:01 🌅

Fire risings

Fiery ascendants are my favorites. They are a ray of sunshine and a ball of creative and entertaining energy.

✿ Leo rising

Marilyn Monroe and Johnny Depp are a good representation of a Leo rising. They are sophisticated, attractive and most of all have a remarkable style. Attention and fame gets to them very easily and they usually have really nice hair.

✿ Sagittarius rising

Anne Hathaway, Nelson Mandela and Agatha Christie are all Sag risings. This placement makes the person very philosophical, adventurous and peace loving. They are an interesting person to talk to and tend to mix humor in their conversations. You will never feel bored with a Sagittarius rising!

✿ Aries rising

Aries rising are bold, frank and goal driven. The fact that Shakira and Rihanna have this placement explains everything. They are the moment. These people won’t give up until they see their dreams come true. Their voice is meant to be heard!

Air risings

✿ Aquarius rising

One of my favorite placements. These people are unique and eccentric just like David Bowie, Jim Morrison, and Audrey Hepburn. They tend to have their own signature styles. I noticed they often have dreamy eyes and just like Sagittarius risings very friendly personalities. Never put an Aquarius rising in a cage they value their freedom and creativity above all

✿ Libra rising

Kate Winslet, Harry Styles, Will Smith, Doja Cat, Jared Leto and many famous celebrities have this placement. They are naturally talented and ambitious. They are ruled by Venus the planet of love so they are sophisticated and soft spoken they know exactly how to get what they want.

✿ Gemini rising

Something I noticed about Gemini rising is that they are good with words! They have a good sense of humor. Jennifer Lawrence and Drew Barrymore are the best example. They are friendly and a social butterfly. Since Gemini risings rule the lungs and throat. They also tend to have an excellent voice and exquisite writing skills as well just like Amy Winehouse and Lady Gaga.

Spiderman x SM2099 Character Parallels

Miguel O’Hara - Peter Parker

Introverted brilliant geneticists who chose to become Spider-Man. (Granted, they have a lot of differences, but that could be its own post.)

Xina Kwan - Mary Jane “MJ” Watson

One of Spider-Man’s love interests who is witty, extroverted, and fun-loving, along with having a tough exterior to hide her true feelings

Gabriel O’Hara - Harry Osborn

Main male companion to Spider-Man who has connections to the Green Goblin, is unable to gain their fathers’ approval, and deal with addiction (Harry with drugs, Gabriel with the internet)

Dana D’Angelo - Gwen Stacy

One of Spider-Man’s love interests who died tragically and is described innocent, subverted considering how Dana handles her relationships

Tempest Monroe - Felicia Hardy

One of Spider-Man’s love interests who has superpowers and an animal-inspired alter ego, subverted as Tempest uses her powers for good

Conchata O’Hara - Aunt May

Main maternal figure in Spider-Man’s life, subverted as Conchata and Miguel’s relationship is very dysfunctional

Angela Daskalakis - Uncle Ben

Mentor figure during Spider-Man’s youth who died and teaches the importance of responsibility to them (Angela in V1 Issue 19, Uncle Ben’s death)

Kron Stone - Flash Thompson

Bully during Spider-Man’s adolescence and has bonded with the Venom symbiote

Tyler Stone & Father Jennifer - Norman Osborn

Tyler Stone and Norman Osborn are villainous and wealthy CEOs. Father Jennifer and Norman Osborn are both the Green Goblin. All three of them are fathers.

(Note: The sm2099 cast are original characters, they are compared to the way Peter’s cast was presented in the 60’s comics, and these parallels have never been confirmed to be intentional. It’s just interesting to see how this sm2099 cast compares to Peter’s cast as they have become archetypes in their own right.)

Debbie Harry talking about her Blondie character and Marilyn Monroe in her 2019 autobiography, Face It:

“Iggy Pop apparently described me once as "Barbarella on speed." Barbarella was a comic-book character from the future, where people didn't fuck anymore, a sexual innocent who gets sent on a mission to save the planet and along the way learns the joys of sex. The director of Barbarella, Roger Vadim, was a big fan of comic books, as were we. Our band shared its name with a cartoon character, after all. And I was playing at being a cartoon fantasy onstage. But the mother of that character was really Marilyn Monroe. From the first time I set eyes on Marilyn, I thought she was just wonderful. On the silver screen, her lovely skin and platinum hair were luminescent and fantastic. I loved the fantasy of it. In the fifties, when I grew up, Marilyn was an enormous star, but there was such a double standard. The fact that she was such a hot number meant that many middle-class women looked down on her as a slut. And since the publicity machine behind her sold her as a sex idol, she wasn't valued as a comedic actor or given credit for her talent. I never felt that way about her, obviously. I felt that Marilyn was also playing a character, the proverbial dumb blonde with the little-girl voice and big-girl body, and that there was a lot of smarts behind the act. My character in Blondie was partly a visual homage to Marilyn, and partly a statement about the good old double standard.

The "Blondie" character I created was sort of androgynous. More and more lately, I've been thinking that I was probably portraying some kind of transsexual creature. Even when I was singing songs that were written from a man's point of view—"Maria" for example, a Catholic schoolboy lusting after this unattainable virgin girl—I had to be kind of gender-neutral, so it seemed that I wanted Maria. A lot of my drag queen friends have said to me, "Oh, you were definitely a drag queen." They didn't have problems seeing it. It was the same thing with Marilyn really. She was a woman playing a man's idea of a woman.”

EASTHIGH'S MONSTOBER 2023 WEEK 2: EPISODES

Sonny With a Chance S2E18: A So Random Halloween Special

[acidheaddd]

I'm currently in game so that's why these are shitty shots but I'm too impatient and wanna just say MY QUEEN IS BACK. 😭

9.117 Play the Game

CATO: What’s wrong with Loxton? He lost his bottle? MONROE: Loxton made a decision, based on the circumstances. It was a valid decision. CATO: But was it right? MONROE: I wasn’t there. I don’t believe in second-guessing my men. Steve made his decision and I stand by that.

CATO: This isn’t a bollocking, Andrew. I just wanted to air the issue.

Aidan Gillen guesting, and Cato driving Andrew barmy.

It’s interesting watching Harry’s episodes, knowing he’s going to be in the DI role for such a short time. He’s always competent and insightful, which I think is his big issue as a character, as he’s too similar to Meadows when Jack isn’t in a shouty mood.

[cat-crowned-8]

Uh, the teen wolf movie is one plothole after the other

spoilers below the cut

no way they got through the entire thing without mentioning the fucking WAR CRIMES that monroe committed and how/if they beat her. and how was Derek the only casualty?? the nogitsune didnt even kill him, he just was a casualty of killing him! plus i think that easily couldve been avoided so thats just bs and wanted to give eli more trauma. speaking of eli, i wanna know who his mom is! bc with the timeline they set up, he was born like, right after the war with monroe. so...what? anyway, that shit with parrish and malia? ew. thats weird. i feel like they really forgot how scary the nogitsune is. im still reeling that he killed NOBODY. anyway i missed kira (racist mfs) and theo.

And how tf did they have the audacity to make a movie ENTIRELY about the villain that kira and stiles were INTEGRAL to. without even mentioning her?? plus, HARRIS?? nah that felt weak. there was zero explanation for that shit. this movie was so long but the pacing was shit. they made it 2 1/2 hrs without actually expanding on anyones story like, at all. still can't believe they killed derek.

What would've really brought the movie full circle would be allison dying again. this time they get to say goodbye. she doesnt belong in this time. the entire movie was fucking fan service for scallison lovers. i would also like a an explanation for why scalia broke up (and how tf she got with parrish)

Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Day No. 2, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, Sept. 30, 2023

Leyla McCalla controls the weather.

An overcast day in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park suddenly turned sun-soaked when the former Carolina Chocolate Drop sang: My face to the sun as she performed Our Native Daughters’ “I Knew I Could Fly” during her Sept. 30 Hardly Strictly Bluegrass set on the Towers of Gold Stage.

“That’s awesome,” she said mid-verse as the Earth’s star emerged from the afternoon clouds.

Following the electric and steel guitar instrumentals of Hermanos Gutiérrez on the adjacent Swan stage and playing cello, banjo and electric guitar, backed with rhythm section and electric guitar, McCalla covered Kendrick Lamar’s “Crown” and offered a gumbo of New Orleanian, Haitian and American music delivered in English and Haitian Creole while showcasing her the Capitalist Blues and Breaking the Thermometer LPs.

The Sound Biteses’ day had begun in the pre-noon fog with the down-in-the-holler, old-time string music of Dry Branch Fire Squad playing the songs of Gillian Welch, Doc Watson and Bill Monroe on the Banjo stage. Later, it was gospel from the McCrary Sisters, who sung Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground,” “Amazing Grace” and other numbers backed by a full band during short, five- to 15-minute sets on the Rooster stage, where Brennan Leigh offered a lunchtime menu of traditional country music.

It was also on the Rooster that Emmylou Harris previewed her Sunday appearance by guesting with Shawn Camp and Verlon Thompson and closing their Doc Watson tribute set with Guy Clark’s “Old Friends.”

Shortly afterward, Bettye LaVette sauntered onstage to deliver her grinding version of Bob Dylan’s “Things Have Changed.” From here, it was an impassioned reading of songs from the Randall Bramblett-written LaVette! album as the singer prowled the stage and proved her 77 years have cost her nothing in vocal prowess and stage presence.

“If I could write, this is what I would have said,” LaVette said in introducing the new songs, which worked better on stage than on wax.

Rickie Lee Jones attracted a ginormous crowd to Banjo - “I haven’t seen so many people in front of me for so long,” she said, soaking it in - and their enthusiasm rubbed off. Jones, whose band included Vilray on guitar and vocals, plus accordion and bass, was animated as she danced around the stage and crooned like a lounge singer when she wasn’t playing guitar, banjo or piano.

Opening with a radically rearranged “Danny’s All-Star Joint” more suited for the streets of New Orleans than the fields of Golden Gate, Jones went on to perform “I Won’t Grow Up” - for the first time, she said - “Last Chance Texaco,” “We Belong Together” and a sinewy rendition of Steely Dan’s “Show Biz Kids” that found Jones lifting her orange sweater to sing of the Rickie Lee T-shirt beneath.

Give RLJ the MVP for turning in HSB No. 2’s No. 1 gig.

Faced with the quintessential festivalgoers’ dilemma, Mr. and Mrs. Sound Bites split the last hour between Steve Earle’s uncharacteristically sleepy solo-acoustic set on the Banjo and Irma Thomas’ barnburner R&B/soul revival at the Rooster.

At 82, Thomas played the day’s most rambunctious set, ripping into “Time is on My Side” and getting the audience bouncing and waving their handkerchiefs on her mashup of “I Done Got Over It” -> “Iko Iko” -> “Hey Pocky Way” -> “I Done Got Over It.” That one might be ringing through Golden Gate’s trees along with the birdsong for some time to come.
