I happen to be in LA for a few days, so I paid a quick visit to one of the most star-studded cemeteries, Westwood Village Memorial Park.

By the way, the sod over John Cassavetes' and Lady Rowlands' side-by-side graves was obviously different than the rest of the lawn, as if their plot had recently been opened and then re-covered. So I'm positive that Gena Rowlands is buried there next to her husband and her mother, even though there's no marker for her yet.

43 Janis/ 27 30 Veronica/ 3 24 my boy Damian/ 3 Cady Karen plss

hello nonnie thank youuuu !!!

let’s get into this shall we this is gonna take me another hour lmao /pos

JANIS

43 - 3 favorite foods and 3 they despise

loves:

1. sushi. she will repeatedly eat gas station sushi knowing ahead of time it will make her sick bc she loves it that much

2. anything pumpkin. latte. bread. cookies. pie. she loves spooky season so it cheers her up when she’s sad. her most common activity with damian is making some yummy pumpkin treat and one of them crying into the batter or whatever

3. pineapple. it eats you back and she respects the metal vibes of that hardcore

hates:

1. spaghetti. she ate a worm on a dare as a child and never recovered. any other pasta is fine tho

2. fish because it makes her think too hard

3. popsicles bc they always melt weird and get everywhere. and regina teases her bc. yknow.

VERONICA

27 - their guilty pleasures

bold of you to assume she doesn’t feel guilty about all of her pleasures

ummm. buying new notebooks and journals and never using them. one specific slightly more expensive brand of cigarettes. “ocean” scented bubble bath. carrying around new books and sparking conversations with guys about them and seeing how long it takes them to realize she’s never read it.

i don’t know what a guilty pleasure is i’m realizing

30 - sleeping habits

HA

if she sleeps she’s a very light sleeper. she’s always been naturally inclined to stay up late and sleep in but after canon and her mental health declining she’s borderline nocturnal. she wakes up if the wind blows too hard outside and is tormented by nightmares for years so she tries to avoid sleeping until she just crashes. her bloodstream is like 72% coffee.

DAMIAN (my baby boy thank you 😭😭)

3 - obscure headcanon

when (or if) ever janis gets married he just materializes in her house sometimes. janis’ partner is more used to it and okay with it than she is.

they did not give him a key.

24 - most annoying habit

this man never stops singing a moment of his life. shower? singing. cooking? singing. studying? singing. sleeping? singing. and it’s always a new musical song he doesn’t know all the words to or the tune quite right yet and e v e r y o n e is fed tf up. and he also dances literally everywhere.

CADY

3 - obscure headcanon

she can talk backwards. sentences and words.

KAREN

3 - obscure headcanon

tacos are to karen what sushi is to janis.

she will seek out tacos wherever she can find them. whatever’s in them doesn’t matter. crunchy. soft. chipotle. taco bell. street tacos. she’s a wanderer when she’s drunk (and also sober) and the first place they look for her is the nearest taco establishment. burritos? get outta here. she will eat tacos from the garbage if they are available.

let baby go to taco bell!!!!

All I Wanna Do/Strike! (1998)

[martinibradley]

"NO MORE LITTLE WHITE GLOVES"

Revisiting this movie now, it's more influential than ever.

In The Cut (2003)

Director - Jane Campion, Cinematography - Dion Beebe

"I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees."

[triviareads]

I finished 'Mercy' after you recommended it and loved it! Do you have any more FemDom recs for me?

I'm glad you enjoyed it!! It's such a novel book to me in the way Sara redeems Beau and writes him as a brat, and I really loved the taboo "best friend's son" thing. Here are some more femdom recs

Contemporary

Beg For It by Megan Hart: A second chance femdom romance! They met when they were in their early 20s they just naturally figure out their dynamic and he's very service oriented (at one point she's crying while she remembers how he would meticulously paint her nails and tbh I felt that) and likes punishment. Fast forward and they're both middle aged and she's divorced, and he ends up buying(?) the company she works which is how they meet again and they resume their relationship. Also, the DEFIANCE in this middle aged man when he's like "I'm not your boy anymore!!" is very funny and patently untrue. Plus, there's pegging that isn't relegated to a bonus scene.

Preferential Treatment by Heather Guerre: One of my favorite Fated Mates recs; he's a billionaire and she's his employee he pays to domme him. There are a lot of sexually charged chess games (with sex toys...?) and there's a financial domination aspect, the most hysterical part being that she has him donating to PACs dedicated to overthrowing Citizens United

What Was Meant to By by Heather Guerre: Marriage of convenience set in a small town except this small town blue collar man likes to be called a good boy in bed and loves it when his wife takes charge.

Also sidenote, I've seen multiple reviews complaining about how they were "surprised" Rain was the dominant one and "it didn't make sense considering she'd been isolated a lot of her adult life" and "there was no backstory" to which I'd say, why does there need to be a backstory? Why does there need to be an explanation about why Rain likes what she likes when I doubt any of these people would require one if it turned out the hero was the more dominant one in the bedroom. Especially in a book that isn't mainly about exploring kink and the mcs just kind of have kinks that fit together, there's little need, and I'd love to see more of that in romance novels.

Rules We Break by Dana Isaly: This is a novella; She's older and his boss, and they rekindle their relationship for a night in Nashville. There's service stuff, there's punishment, there's a lot of toys.

Historical:

The Duke I Tempted by Scarlett Peckham: Marriage of convenience between a powerful duke and a gardener— the bargain is an heir for money for her gardening business except they fall in love ofc, all while he's hiding that he's a masochist and frequents whipping houses. The reveal (to Poppy) happens fairly late in the book from what I remember, but she does ask him to teach her how to please him.

Would I Lie to the Duke by Eva Leigh: She's in the soapmaking business and he's a duke but also v business oriented; I remember him being kind of an.... alpha sub? If that makes any sense whatsoever, but he's into submission/service-oriented but he's still kind of calling the shots with Jessica especially in the beginning.

Scandalous Passions by Nicola Davidson: an MFF romance set in the 1600s in Scotland between an ex-royal mistress, a naive ingenue type, and a strong but silent soldier; the ex-mistress, Janet, definitely takes charge of her earlier encounters with Marjorie and Lachlan and kind of controlled the proceedings from what I remember. Also, solid dirty talk as is standard for this author.

Nicola Davidson has a handful of other femdom books from what I remember, but I've yet to read them. I'm also told The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes by Cat Sebastian qualifies

248 - Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle

We are returning to the work of Jennifer Jason Leigh this week, and Jourdain Searles is joining us once again with an underrated and underseen gem. Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle takes on the life of indelible writer Dorothy Parker, capturing her days with the insular Algonquin Circle and her later dissolution with the group, all with Jennifer Jason Leigh as the noted wit. Launched at Cannes, the film was celebrated for her performance even with a limited audience, including Golden Globe and Independent Spirit nominations for Best Actress. But even in a famously uncompetitive Best Actress lineup, Leigh was left out.

This episode, we talk about Leigh's several close calls for a nomination in the 1990s and our feelings about the nomination that she eventually received for The Hateful Eight. We also talk about Pulp Fiction's domination on the independent film scene, the Cannes Film Festival, and the influence of producer Robert Altman.

Topics also include writer/director Alan Rudolph's filmography, the film's massive (and nepotism baby-inflected) ensemble, and the person-not-company Condé Nast.
