.@JadaKingdom Counterattacks With "London Bed"

Earlier, we shared that Stefflon Don officially kicked off her beef with Jada Kingdom with her diss track called, “Dat A Dat“. In the true spirit of feuds, Jada got to work, and has responded. Round one has started off in an interesting way, so here is the track, “London Bed“. Taking over the “Talibans” Instrumental that made a hit with not only Byron Messia, but with Burna Boy, Stefflon Don’s…

Hey guys so do we want to talk about how Lila’s entire thing is that she lies and yet the biggest lie this season isn’t coming from her... but from Marinette.

How Lila and Marinette match each other intellectually, which Marinette herself says while fighting Lila (‘unlike the other Hawkmoth you’re actually clever!’). How Marinette has always fought against Lila’s lies but is now perpetuating one herself that will probably turn out to be one of the most (unintentionally-don't attack my daughter) harmful ones in the show- and its to Adrien- one of the only people who didn't initially fall for Lila's lies.

How the thing- the lie that is going to break Adrien this season, that will guiltrip him over his final confrontation with his father, make him hate himself for not being there for the final battle, and make him feel the weight of a thousand revelations and implications and betrayal once revealed, comes not from the villain known for lying... but from Marinette.

There is something to be said about villains paralleling the hero, and BOY is this season going to be one of the most heartbreaking and craziest examples of it yet.

Prompt 26 - First song

@wolfstarmicrofic January 26, word count 414

“Merlin, Remus, this is amazing,” Sirius gushed as he let Remus lead him into muggle London. There were so many people. Sirius couldn’t believe it. He swore that in just this small area, there were more muggles than there were students at Hogwarts. No wonder the wizarding world kept itself hidden. 

They wandered down a few streets until a Sirius ground to a halt outside a small crowded shop and the hauntingly beautiful voice drifted out of the door. 

“There's a starman waiting in the sky.

He'd like to come and meet us.

But he thinks he'd blow our minds.

There's a starman waiting in the sky.

He's told us not to blow it.

'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile

He told me

Let the children lose it

Let the children use it.

Let all the children boogie”

 “What’s that?” Sirius asked, walking towards the voice as though under a spell. 

“That’s David Bowie,” Remus explained, following Sirius into the record shop. Sirius stood beside the record player where the thin black disk spun around and around, the song somehow coming out of the machine. Sirius bent low, trying to figure it out. Remus came back over and handed him a flat square package. David Bowie, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars, the front read. 

“What do I do with it?” Sirius asked, turning it around in his hands. 

“You play it on one of those,” Remus said, pointing at the muggle contraption beside him. 

“And how do I get one of those?” He asked. Remus pointed behind him.

Twenty minutes later, they walked out of the record shop with their arms full of records Remus thought Sirius would enjoy and a brand-new record player that Remus had promised to show Sirius how to use. 

Sirius had to admit to himself as they pushed through the throngs of muggles milling about that while he didn’t think he’d ever understand muggles. After listening to his first muggle song, he thought their music was far superior to the wizarding world. 

He clutched his record player tighter as they headed back to the leaky cauldron. He couldn’t wait to listen to Starman again and bugged Remus until he agreed to go up to their room and set it up for him. They spent the next few hours lying in bed together, listening to the music, only getting up to flip the records over or change them and start them up again.

SABRINA CARPENTER performing in London, UK (03/09/25)

Big day-off energy. Went for a swim. Walking back from the pool, my wet hair drying in the warm sun, I saw the italian deli was open. Rows of sfogliatella made me think of naples, last summer. Lying on the grass in the park with my pastry I thought: this is the ultimate activity, just doing nothing. But I knew I was wrong, when I found myself dancing, losing myself in a sea of bodies at the Nubiyan Twist show. That is the ultimate joy.

100% Serious Moodboard for The Manager Of The Royal Bethlehem

[hot-on-my-watch]

Today in 'harrassing the innocent staff of the National Theatre' they continue to be very nice to me, and I've been informed that you can just GO TO THEIR ARCHIVE and WATCH THEIR RECORDINGS of things! How great is that!?

I mean I can't because I'm housebound and most of you lot seem to live outside of the UK and trains to London are expensive if you aren't, but were I in a position to I would ABSOLUTELY be looking at cheap weekday coach tickets and messaging the friend whose sofa I have traditionally slept on down there.

What I did was email and ask how I might access a recording of the 2015 production of Hamlet in which Benedict Cumberbatch starred opposite Sian Brookes - his future secret sister. Without buying a DVD from America I might add. And a less troublesome external DVD player.

The first person I contacted passed me on to the archive lot with a comment that yes BC is really quite the asset to the National Theatre and wishing me luck. I absolutely expected the archive team to tell me that you can't just watch whatever production you want whenever you want because a decade after its performance you decide you like one of the actors in it, for free or for cheap. But apparently you can, down at the archive.

Wonderful.

Okay it’s not my lunch break anymore but I am home from hell sorry work and I have the support of the collective tendersteam/Coalectra nation so. For context I have severe sleep debt and I hate my job so I’ve had time to think.

Like, to me (TO ME) Porter and Electra are able to bond over the fact they are both representative of something that was once the shining future, Porter in that he’s representative of the previously shining coal heart of Britain, and Electra in that they’re the brilliant first introduction to electricity in the rails. Now coal isn’t used in the UK beyond specialist industries and heritage rail, and EMUs are literally everywhere, so neither of them, once shining images of power and strength that are now either commonplace or obsolete. Both are presented as established characters with good relationships with other characters, and despite their objective statuses going against their reputation (porter being obsolete and Electra being fairly commonplace) they have respect and a job within the yard. They’re the shining image of what was once the future, now the present and the past, plus them being together is kind of a moot point - neither of them need each other, truly, and an argument could be made that Electra is not a shunter, and should not be supporting Porter in the rails. They aren’t built for each other, but they don’t work together despite the situation, they have to learn to support each other outside of work in the face of obsolescence.

Contrast with Rusty and Hydra, a combination of the disregarded past and an unstable future. Despite their power, neither of them have respect or presence, and are generally regarded as oddities or overzealous in their own claims of their own power. They’re stronger together, and they’re each other’s greatest strength; Rusty is the starlight powered by hydrogen, after all. They’re a theoretical bright, clean future, standing together in the face of adversity, but only as a produce of their own teamwork. Hydra is nothing without an engine to power, Rusty cannot win on his own, and following his conversation to hydrogen, is reliant on Hydra for power.

They’re diametrically opposite in every way - Porter is inefficient, unused, and well liked, Hydra is about as efficient as you can get, in demand, and generally considered an annoyance. Electra is bright and egotistical, strange considering that they’re not as exciting as they think they are, Rusty is determined but more reserved about it, aware of he had to get where he is, and as the worlds first hydrosteam engine, should be much more exciting than he presents.

Porter and Electra as a couple too oppose them, unlabelled, subtle, and really really on tenderhooks the whole time - one wrong statement and they’re on ANOTHER week long break whilst Electra makes a scene about being single and then they’re back together again. Hydra and Rusty, meanwhile, are solid from the get go once Rusty gets over his own hang ups, and are incredibly incredibly public.

I reckon they see each other and get jealous sometimes. Porter wants stability to show his love, Hydra’s worries that Rusty’s love is transactional and sometimes doesn’t want to be as reliant. Electra wants room to be vulnerable, Rusty would like retraction from the public eye.

Is this anything. Chat am I cooked. How does Slickball fit into this. Please god someone help me. I need them injected into my veins I think
