May 25 and 27-29, 2024 - the NDAs are no more.

Purgatory 8 con took place this past weekend and words have been spoken [x].

Jensen Ackles trended briefly on May 25 and then several tags began trending again on May 27. It looks like a bunch of things about destiel were said, alongside the typical con chaos which resulted in the trend. Below are some highlights (though not all of them have video sources):

The confession scene played before the Jensen and Misha's panel: [video], [x], [x], [x]

Jensen said that Cas' confession was textual rather than subtext: [video], [x], [x]

DJ and Ty started their panel by thanking everyone for the congrats on their marriage: [x] + Ty mentioned he'd read some Dean/Benny fanfiction: [x]

In response to a question about what Kevin had seen when he was a ghost, Osric replied "destiel": [x]

Multiple people tweeted about various panels throughout the weekend and most tweets can be found under the #purcon8 tag.

It looks like spn was also trending on Twitter [x]:

Missa: Hey guys! I'm MissaSinfonia, from YouTube, and I'm gonna say "Hello!" to everyone from Fofoquei, I don't know if I'm pronouncing it correctly, but I'm gonna say "Hey!"

Missa: [In Spanish] And I'll also say it in Spanish, I send a greeting and a hug.

Missa: [In English again] I would say it in Portuguese, but I don't know how to speak Portuguese– but I love you guys, have a great day! Woo–!

Twitter user @FofoqueiArkanis was able to chat with Missa briefly at the BGS yesterday. Apparently, he shared that there will be a new YouTube video on his channel soon (subtitled in Portuguese!) and there's also a secret something that might be happening next year.

information 1: i carved a rotisserie chicken & froze it in a freezer bag & now i have a big chicken loaf thats too hard to cut into individual portions

information 2: i once got a national geographic geode kit & bought a chisel to properly break the rocks open (thats the only time the chisel has been used)

query: should i use the chisel & a hammer to break the chicken loaf into manageable pieces (while keeping the pieces frozen for maximum freshness, rather than thawing the entire loaf)

Message from a librarian re: the going to the museum post. check if your library has museum passes. Ours (and all of the libraries around us, though I haven't checked every library in my state) offer museum passes to patrons. These passes are usually good for 2 adults and 2 children free entry, though sometimes it's more kids, or a larger total number, etc. people rarely use them!!! you'll get in to cool places on the library's dime!!

what do you think would happen if Yoojin and Kim Dokja met?

I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT with dearest @leejihye

and i believe (and my opinion is obviously the correctest one. (<- evil misdirection)) that. hear me out.

kim dokja seeing a guy who turned back time to save someone (he already has a soft spot for that) AND a guy. who is an older sibling. who loved and cared for a weird off-putting child until that child himself turned away. and kept loving him still.

wouldn't he be envious. (was he ever envious of mia. or was she overshadowed by kim namwoon.) wouldn't he think of a life where HE got someone who would care about him no matter what onlookers said. (he'll have that.)

and yoojin. well he has a soft spot for sad repressed men as we all know. so to the care list he goes ^^ (i cannot imagine it going any other route. can you imagine yoojin seeing someone who didn't have any support through the childhood. was abandoned. dealt with people treating him as a character, not a person. who then called himself a monster. not to lead every road to rome but i do think he would see himself and yoohyun in kdj's childhood and thus. care list.)

idk if y'all have seen about the old pokemon game design stuff leaking, like beta mons, concept art/character pages, and design inspiration, but inb4 anything submas, just know these are BETA CONCEPTS AND IDEAS and aren't canon! Take what you want, yeet what you don't, don't treat it as solid fact bc it never made it to the game.

when we wonder how political shows wíll get, folks tend to think along the lines of, like, are they gonna tackle freedom of the press? defamation laws? equal marriage? corruption? gender equality? and then here's only friends ep 1, and Cheuam comes in with this absolutely sick burn--

pm 2.5? yeah, air pollution, it was really bad this year, people sued the then-PM over it.

covid? We know. We know. (killed ~35000 people in Thailand directly according to WHO stats and ruined millions of lives because of the economic dip due to the tourism slump, and fuck knows how many more severely impaired by long covid or other covid-related issues)

But radioactive cesium?? surely … oh.

have some international headlines:

nyt - bloomberg - abc.net.au - cnn.com

and here's the whole sordid saga in Bangkok Post Headlines

Radioactive caesium missing from power plant (2023-03-14) Missing radioactive tube sparks concern (2023-03-15) Search yields no sign of radioactive hazard tube (2023-03-16) No tube in truck, guard tells cops (2023-03-19) Steel melting plant closed, hazardous isotope detected (2023-03-20) Caesium-contaminated factory dust now safely contained (2023-03-20) Toxic dust contained at steel plant (2023-03-21) Caesium concerns remain, says Greenpeace (2023-03-21) Prayut says no risk from furnace dust (2023-03-22) Radiation 'poses no threat' to local food produce (2023-03-23) Prachin Buri people demand probe into caesium disappearance (2023-03-23) Sick kids prompt 'urgent' tube probe (2023-03-25) Locals urge action over caesium saga (2023-03-28) Lack of plan for radioactive dust worries experts (2023-04-05)

so I think if we want to speculate just how political Jojo's gonna get with this? the answer is "yes, and"

just spent the last 6 hours reading every OFMD S2 review I can find and distilling that info into plot/character/episode highlights. I’ll probably format it better after I get some sleep but enjoy!

& here are all the quotes that I pulled from:

the way Watcher has ghosted the world for 2 days is pretty ironic given Shane doesn’t believe in them

Claudia's Hair & Growing Up

I've written previously about how Claudia's wardrobe signals a shift from her childhood self to her adult self but the most clear and obvious marker of her self-perceived adulthood is her hair. In the early 1900s, a girl was allowed to have her hair down or in a half up do until about age 17-18 or when she made her debut into society. After that, when appearing in public spaces, she would be expected to have her done up (and also wearing a hat).

As you can see in episode 4, she has her done in the typical style of a young girl in the 1910s, ornamented with a bow or some other decorative ribbon. In fact, this is one of the clearest indicators to people like Charlie and the guy at the university that she's really young even if she claims to be older. This is a childhood/early adolescent hairstyle and an adult woman would not have worn it out and about.

In the first photo above are the Romanov children with the girls between childhood and early adolescence. Below that, you have adult women in the 1910s with their hair done up and on the right wearing a large hat when out of the house.

However, an interesting shift happens in the 1920s that coincides with Claudia's coming of age and while it's not explicitly explored in the show, it likely compounded Claudia's frustration at her inert physical state. The 1920s was the beginning of VERY short hair becoming popular with women, so instead of marking your adulthood by putting your hair up, many would simply chop off their hair into a flapper bob.

But Claudia CAN'T cut her hair. It would just grow back so not only is her body in arrested development but she can't even style her hair to the adult woman trends of the era. She's not only stuck in a 14 year old's body but she's stuck with a 14 year old's hair length from the year 1917. So what does she do? After episode 5, she almost always wears her hair up especially when out in public and when she is trying to project maturity (anatonizing Lestat, buying things at the pharmacy, meeting with Tom Anderson). While she may not be able to cut her hair to match the trends of the 1930s woman, she CAN at least put her hair up like a 1917 woman. It's literally her one way of controlling her appearance beyond how she dresses.

Final note: while the show in general has pretty accurate and well developed styling choices, the one glaring exception is Antoinette. She's really not styled properly for any era she appears in and I know her looking 35 years old for 30 years is a bit of a joke in fandom but truly her hair is just NOT it. It's way too short for 1917 (needs to be updo capable!!) and kinda too long for the 20s-30s. They really just did not care about styling her accurately at all and ykw that's okay cause she doesn't really matter lmao.

Like look at these from the years 1917 and 1937 and then look at the styles I posted above of the 1910s vs. the 1930s and like????? what is going on here lady!!! You're just not trendy in any era hon.
