David Bowie Museum slated for 2025

Best news I’ve heard all year...

The V&A museum has secured the archive of David Bowie, acquiring 80,000+ items spanning his career that will be made available to the public from 2025 in London:

‘The museum, which hosted the critically acclaimed "David Bowie Is" exhibition in 2013, will open The David Bowie Centre for the Study of Performing Arts at its V&A East Storehouse in east London, where fans, school pupils and researchers will be able to gain insight into the pioneering British singer-songwriter's creative process...

‘There are also more than 70,000 pictures, prints, slides, negatives, large format transparencies and contact sheets taken by famed photographers including Terry O’Neill and Helmut Newton...

‘The museum said it secured the archive and could create the new centre thanks to the David Bowie Estate and a 10 million pound ($12 million) donation from the Blavatnik Family Foundation and Warner Music Group.‘

Just thinking about Eric Idle saying Paul hugged him during the Concert for George again!

Yahoo Entertainment: Tell me about the iconic Monty Python performance at the “Concert for George” all-star tribute at Royal Albert Hall in 2002.

Eric Idle: Olivia asked me if Python would come on. … She said, “Everybody's doing a George song. Would you do ‘Piggies’?” And I said, “We don't really do songs. We're not a singing group. You know, we do idiotic and rude things! So, why don't we sing ‘Sit on My Face and Tell Me That You Love Me’?” And she let us do it, so we did it! And I thought, “He would've been so happy that we did this. This would've made him so proud.” We insisted on doing something rude, and it lightened the mood. Laughter is close to tears, and if you can laugh at those times, it's really helpful. Because the rest of it was kind of very sad — like that the end with Joe Brown singing “I'll See You in My Dreams” with the petals falling, which is the most moving thing I think I've ever been part of. I'd have to go and cry a bit. And then Paul was great; he said, “Come here, you need a hug.” Every time he'd find me crying somewhere at the back, it was: “You need a hug. And it was very lovely, very nice. X

Since I’m super obsessed with your idea of the Alenoah apocalypse thing I gotta ask, if you’re up for asking more questions about it, what would julia be in the au :) (definitely not to feed my Mkulia hyperfixation)

was gonna say this is a quick sketch but i'd be lying (i spent like 2h figuring out their designs)

SO! rambling time!! (also dw i love it when people ask questions abt my aus, whether it is the regular alenoah gay dads au, intertwined or the monster-pocalypse^_^)

julia wld def be a siren, as they are characteristically known for being deadly creatures that manipulate humans with their singing,

but i also thought to add bowie into the mix as well because, even though he isn't as villanous as Julia, he's still manipulative, and it wld be pretty funny if two people that hate each other became a duo to survive in the apocalypse!!!

bowie n julia spend their day on the sea, trying to lure survivor humans with their singing to manipulate them into getting supplies for free (also they totally dont spend time on the shore because bowie has a bit of a crush on a certain merman... nooo of course not)

i still need to develop this story so its kinda dry on info but i think bowie n julia being a duo bcs they have to is generally very fun (at least to me)

as for mkulia crumbs... iiiii am sorry but this is an emmk au <\3 (its one of my comfortships i just rlly like them n i crave emmk crumbs) in my other two aus theres mkulia tho!!

(October 2024.)

YAY I made my RMOC, [Mr. Sea] a playable custom skin/character in MAGMML3! (Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, it is a MASSIVE fangame full of massive fanservice and customization/accessibility. I've been having a lot of fun and plenty of laughs playing it!)

Shoutouts as well to my lovely friend @jashuon for helping me out with the horizontal + vertical spinning sprites!! They look amazing! Give him a follow too, he's very talented :)

🎮 Who all the Reboot characters main on Super Smash Bros:

So we know many headcanons about the g4 cast being related to g1.

So imagine Priya learning that she's competing against Noco, Lyler, Gidgette, and Nemma children while Julia is Blaineley's nephew. While her teammates are Nowen, Duncney, and Alehaether children, Scary Girl is Izze's daughter, and Demian is related to DJ. Heck, her best friend's a Lesharold daughter!

At first, Priya's super nervous, but around the last episodes, she's proud of herself with the fact that she outstand children of the legendary first gen.

Priya at the finale: Mille is out. I can't believe this. I outstand the children of the previous competitors! Now, this should be easy.

Bowie: Oh, did I forget to mention that Lightning Jackson is my brother?)

Priya: Well, sh*t.
