THIS is my favorite Dean movie. The only movie where he's actually playing a character. And not the usual drunk/swinger/cowboy (who in the long run was also tiring). Even though he looks really tired and aged, in this film he really seems like a man with feelings and not the TV character from the Dean Martin Show or the Rat Pack. These were the films he had to make. But the public did not accept him in this way just as they did not accept Jerry in more serious roles. Dean and Jerry were trapped in their characters when they were young. Dean more than Jerry.
Dean Martin is Mr Ricco (1975)
#dean martin#mr ricco#fav film#In the penultimate gif#although he has aged#he has never seemed so sexy#so masculine!

Excerpt from The Song of Roland, translated by Norma Lorre Goodrich (Medieval Myths)
#THIS HAS BEEN A PET PROJECT. I FUCKING LOVE THE SONG OF ROLLAND#song of roland#clay does art#so. okay bear with me#the song of Roland / chanson de rollanz was an epic poem written in the 11th century about the real battle of Roncevaux Pass in#the 8th century.#so 11th c ? we are smack in those middle ages#and its old copies were recorded as illuminated manuscripts#yet! it is technically an epic!! its an epic poem!!!! I don’t believe there were many written between Roland and the Aeneid (19 BCE)#in the west?#so like . WILD COMEBACK!!#this comic (?) is me playing with this idea of both muddling and clarifying the reality (8th c. real battle. he died.)#with the context of the poem (11th c. chivalric code. this was the hamilton of the time I must assume)#the translation from old french (flows better in modern English than it does in modern french apparently?)#and me. making it a scrolling comic. inspiration from real armor of the 8th century#although 11th c manuscripts armor them like they’re contemporary#I did hand lettering! as a manuscript would be!!#but my composition is wildly different than theirs#I could go on ! but I shant. ty for reading#no id#< I do not. know how . I would do this one#long post#kinda

I'm reading the three issues from the Mirage Guest Era where Raphael undergoes a retro mutation due to a leech that Leo, Don, and Mikey placed on his foot as a prank, and
God, these panels hurt in so many ways.
#teenage mutant ninja turtles#tmnt#tmnt mirage#tmnt leonardo#tmnt raphael#tmnt michelangelo#tmnt donatello#Issues 24 - 26 of Volume 1 were originally considered non-canon due to being part of the Guest Era#But Peter Laird has since said that they do actually fit into the original Mirage canon since they are referenced in Sons of the Silent Age#Although he notes that this is merely his opinion on the matter since he no longer owns the franchise

Some Aang supporters just need to see the potential of Flying Dagger.
Y EEEEESSSSS! Aang and Mai stand need to embrace Flying Dagger. They make sense (at least temporarily). Imagine all the horrific adventures they could have together. Aang with a woman who has Katara's ruthlessness, but none of her compunction? Mai with a powerful man who she could manipulate through his ego? Who cares if they could actually last as a couple long term. The stories that could be told!
#atla#flying dagger#anti mai#anti aang#although it's really not#i genuinely ship them#not endgame but so what?#(i actually see Mai marrying a wealthy older gentleman and stealing his children's inheritance)#(also the “kids” are her parent's age)#(aang i see cheating in every partber he has while insisting on their monogamy)

anyone interested in talking about the iconic 2000's middle-grade-bordering-on-ya book series gallagher girls??
#okay incoming rant about this series#i read the first book when i was 10 or 11 and i was absolutely obssessed with it. i read it so many times i had the entire story memorized#the issue was that i could not find the rest of the series anywhere. it was either sold out or out of stock#and then i found out that only the first 3 books had been translated into my first language so at that point i kinda gave up on them#anyway#flashforward to a couple of weeks ago#i was re organizing my bookshelf and on the back i found LYKY (is this how y'all are abreviating it??)#and remembred how much i loved it#and since i'm now fluent in english and was stuck at home recovering from a surgery i decided to download the entire series and read it#to find out what the fuck happened afterwards#long story short i read all six books in 4 or 5 days#and i haven't stopped thinking about them since#it's actually so funny how little information we have in the first book#i went all of these years thinking it was mostly a silly series about a boarding school for spies when actually SO MUCH happens afterwards#i can't believe i went all of these years unaware of zach goode's existence#truly character of all time#but also i can't stop thinking about how interesting it would have been if zach had come to hate the circle and his mom during the series#rather than before#make it a true enemies to lovers#and have us witness that portion of his character developement in real time instead of being told about it#like him slowly realizing through cammie and his time at gallagher that maybe what they were doing is wrong#i think it would have been very interesting to read#although let's be real it took me until halfway through book four to trust him and he was fully one of the good guys so..#but yeah i have a lot more to say but these tags are long enough#gallagher girls#okay i just want to add another funny anecdote about my experience with this series#my copy of LYKY has an age warning in the back recomending that readers should be above 13 yo to read it#and i distinctly remember finishing it and thinking the warning was kind of dumb bcs besides a few mentions of death and other heavier topi#nothing really happened#and now i realize it was a warning for the rest of the series not just the first book because jesus fucking chirst everything after

I’m half convinced Bison is gaslighting Fadel into thinking Style is flirting and into him.
But I am also convinced that Bison sincerely wants his brother to have some happiness - and not just because he wanted the freedom to flirt and date with Kant
The Heart Killers EP2
#and although Bison is slowly trusting Kant there is still hesitation from his part#but you can also tell Bison just wants to have so good fun at his young age of 24#he is not even looking for a proper bf and prefers to keep thing casual#Kant has a different idea though#I too will be flattered if I have a handsome tattooist flirting and paying attention to me non stop#kantbison#firstkhao#thk ep 2#the heart killers

I've been busy seeing over the mice introductions but here's a little sneak peek into the bunch.
We've of course got my old man Hamid in the middle of the box and then, ironically stacked by size, from smallest to biggest: Archie, Madge, James and Watson (who this is mainly for given his roommate is a senior citizen).
Shout out again to @224bbaker who i asked about which of their detectives would make the best mouse names. The results are in :)
#if everything goes well they'll get into the big cage today after i cleaned it#for now they won't get access to the upper floor cause Archie is VERY small still and i don't trust him not to squeeze between the spaces#when he has grown a little bit that will no longer be a problem but rn I'm cautious especially because#he's at that age were he's very active and mischievous and does not know fear#there's mice loose in Baker Street#also Watson looks like an absolute BEAST here lmao#he's not actually that chonky although he IS quite big for a mouse

Anyways. Academy era designs
#koschei has curlier hair normally but this is drawn in an era where he’s NAWT taking care of himself so his hair hasn’t been washed in like#a week#I draw him with his hands bruised up from rapping the back of his hands in beat with the drums btw#and the eye bags because he CANT sleep with that racket in his head#also. theta has a lot of freckles and moles and koschei sometimes gets a pen and connects them like a connect the dots#just trust me alright trust me so hard#theta has a body that we’d call afab but theta’s always been more comfortable with male centric terms so everyone just perceives him as a m#although I so she/he theta. theta she/he truth#but pronouns ≠ gender so it’s okay#anyways anyways#thoschei#doctor who academy era#koschei oakdown#theta sigma#doctor who#the deca#(well. two of them)#aura’s posts#our art#idk how long the academy has people for like what age they graduate but they’re meant to be the timelord equivalent of like 18ish here#no one talk abt my Gallifreyen. just don’t even#heaven’s art<3

next month me and my grandma are going to visit my godfather who lives in Spain, but instead of being excited (it's gonna be my second time abroad in my life) I'm anxious af, because even though I'm an adult I live with my parents and I need to tell my father about it. normal parents would - y'know - be happy that their children have opportunity to visit another country, but instead he's gonna be insufferable about it, because it's my mom's side of family and he despises my uncle. but what is he gonna do? kick me out of the house even though he promised that as long as I'm studying or working I don't need to worry about such thing, humiliate me as usual, tell me that I'm childish and spoiled or make my mom's life a living hell again? I'm aware of the fact that the longer I'm putting it off the worse his reaction is gonna be, but I'm just not mentally able to tell him that, because I don't know how he will react. I don't need any money from him, I don't have to use my phone during this trip (I dunno how the roaming and stuff work), I just want to be sure he's gonna behave like a proper human being towards my mom and my siblings when I won't be at home and not act like a total asshole while talking with me about it.
#i know that at my age i should be more mature and handle such situations better but as long as he's the way he is it's impossible#why can't both my parents be normal#and the fact that i wasn't able to get any summer job this year isn't making it any better because i know it's gonna be one of his argument#(czaicie to że nawet do żabki mnie nie chcieli. dosłownie emotional i brain damage)#'you didn't work so from where do you get the money for that'#don't worry definitely not from you because you can't even pay for my monthly train ticket to college#and at the same time have the audacity to call me dumb for commuting there instead of living in that city#while knowing that neither me nor mom can afford renting anything without your help#(okay i'm a bit exaggerating in my mom's case but she earns much less than him and he still makes problems with literally anything#even buying food even though he's in a very good financial situation and there are times when my mom has to make everything work all alone#because he's getting mad at her out of nowhere and only pays the bills that fortunately aren't that bad in our case)#(and unfortunately the bills include my telephone subscribtion because all of our numbers are in some kind of special offer where you pay#much less for one number when they're registered for one person so it's another problem in this situation because when i offered paying for#mine he refused and probably it'll be his another argument for becoming mad that i dare to spend time with the part of family that cares#about me unlike majority of his relatives)#i hope that at least when academic year starts i'll be able to get any part-time job on the weekends so i can save up more money#although i'm not sure if i'm gonna move out in the nearest future. i mean he's fucking insufferable and toxic but i just can't leave my mom#and especially siblings there even though i can't even fucking protect them from literally anything. at this point i'm just powerless.#there are times when he tries to change for the better but then he starts creating problems on purpose and everything is coming full circle#and the sole thought that my little siblings would tell me that i just ran away from this problem is fucking killing me.#niedziela wieczór i humor niegituwa. zawsze kurwa kurwa coś.#chuj idę słuchać myslovitz#pau.txt

Ik tom seems quite passionate about using his real hair now, when he's Loki, but he's gonna have to start wearing wigs if he wants to look younger than Thor with that receding hairline 😭
#if it wasnt for the hairline then i could be convinced hes younger#but geez man#and the wrinkles aswell#although i am loving the curls and the waves and whatever was going on in the opening of S2#but the forehead bro😭#sorry not sorry#kinda mean post#ik#but someone has to say it#and its not like toms fault for aging although it is inconvenient for the whole godly lifespan thing#but i think marvels just going to ignore that and pretend theyve looked the same the whole time#unless they do something with the whole loki subconsciously aging because of stress and shapeshifting or something which is a hc ive seen...#...more than once#loki laufeyson#loki#marvel#loki laufeychild#loki laufeydottir#loki of asgard#loki of jotunheim#loki series#anti loki series#tom hiddelston loki#tom hiddleston#god of stories#loki god of mischief#god of mischief#MCU

Lune Invictus
#wishing him ill <3#I used photos of people getting scared in haunted houses as a reference for 80% of this#put your favorite lysander moment in the tags#personally I like when half his face gets burned off by one of darrow’s men#although I also enjoy the scene where he’s trying to act like a big man and shows atlas how he has the hilt of darrow’s sword#and atlas is like okay… you stabbed him? stole a trinket? so?#NO my favorite is when lysander turns heel and runs from thraxa and she yells LITTLE BITCH after him as he tries to scramble away#lysander au lune#lune invictus#cicero au votum#darrow of lykos#iron gold#dark age#light bringer#red rising#pierce brown#my art

#Doodles#SCII#Damned#ZEX#It's lonely at the top :(#Poor dearest is worse for wear ah </3#This scene made me cry ;;#Like it was sad when he wrote down his missing canonmates but going back in and writing everyone else's names ;;;;#Even his shaky alliances! Even the people he hasn't seen for a while!! Wehhh <3 <3 <3#You soft heart ;; I see you Admiral ♥#Also had a lot of fun writing in VUK ZIX again hehe ♪#The translations from VUK ZIX to English aren't exact - for starters they're upside down haha#So if you started from the top down it would actually read KINLEZ NATPAK but I figured that wouldn't be as readable#You read from the bottom up! I also still headcanon it being written/read from left to right#So he started with Zelnick then Fwiffo then Tanaka and so on#Although I did change it up for the second one - Teisel then Xelloss then Xigbar then Asch and Van#The more I think of it the more I'm surprised there's no H :0#Even just as a demarcation of a pause before during or after a syllable#The ''sh'' sound makes complete sense tho hehe <3#Any incorrect shaping of letters/poor handwriting on my part can totally be chalked up to ZEX not being used to human hands!#Totallyyy lol#I really like the way specific syllables are shaped - like how Teisel and Zelnick almost share the same shaped between ''SEL'' and ''ZEL''#How Z is a more connected extension of S just agh it's so pretty <3 <3 Eco_Mono really did such a lovely job with it ♪#And then certain ''incorrectly'' spelled syllables still turned out so pretty! Like the ''ANA'' in Talana - look how swoopy and continuous!#The ''BAR'' in Xigbar looks really cool - honestly reminds me of the fanweapons I made ages ago for I? think? Xigbar's apprentice??#It's been too long I don't remember now lol but it's cool to me in particular because of that!! :D#Fwiffo looks so funny haha - Tanaka has a cool star-like kind of letter in his name?? Man it's just so neat <3#As for ZEX - I mean he made it this far :( Not one to give up easily that's for certain ♥ Tenacious#I want him to be happy :'0

The IMDb page for the upcoming The Count of Monte Cristo series has added a new member of cast: Henry Lawfull playing the role of Gaston.
I didn't remember any Gaston in the book, I've just done Ctrl+F in the Gutenberg, but nothing's coming up, so I take it he's an original character.
#the count of monte cristo#tcomc 2025#the count of monte cristo 2025#henry lawfull#he's in 4 ep according to imdb#the actor only just turned 18. which means he was 17 during the shooting#i can't think of anyone of that age in the book#my first thought was a servant in one of the households#then it occurred to me he might be andrea renamed but he seems too young for that#also he has bright red hair which don't resemble villefort & hermine#although hermine might be a readhead on the show who knows#the pics from last summer shooting in paris show a redheaded lady and i think it's her#but like i said. who knows#we'll have to wait and see#gaston is a good name though#mypost

Thinking about baby patty 20 dead 40 wounded
#stranger things#patty newby#(through tears) noo ahah dont think about how patty had no friends in hawkins growing up#and how the closest thing to a friend wouldve been bob vs rhe way bob’s annoyed w her initially re: his radio stuff/the whole fucked up#newby damily dynamic as a whole/the emotional distance that Does exist between bob and patty as a result of mr newbys favouritism#towards bob. do NOT think about how patty is the same age as s4 el vs how el’s had friends since s1#like imagine if el didnt meet max or the party until season 4…. and the fact that patty’s first opening scene/one of the very first things#we’re told about her (and henry) is that she’s lonely… stop stop im already dead#:((((((((#patty i would been your friend its ok#(through tears): when do you guys think baby patty stopped trying to play with bob/when do you guys think that the whole family dynamic#really started to squash any like. proper close bonding yk like they dont hate eachother in tfs by any means but its like#there’s definitely a Distance there in a lot of ways & definitely resent etc you can feel under the surface (although in the end that def#improves) but i just. dont look at me im thinking about baby patty trying to ppay with bob but then going off to sit alone#(through tears and comically loud sobbing sounds) do you guys think that bob blamed patty for his mom leaving the same way mr newby blamed#her for his wife leaving? do you guys think that’s why bob didnt protect/defend her until the end of the play? and even then he didnt DO it#so much as say that he SHOULD have…..#(through even more tears) do NOT think about how quickly patty accepted mr newbys apology and even insisted initially that he has nothing to#apologize for despite the way hes treated her vs the fact that patty so clearly just wants to be loved#do not think about patty’s dad being the principal vs her still getting bullied all the time and then getting in trouble for defending#herself/mocking walter… mr newby when i fucking catch you!!!!!!!#pattyposting

There are many reasons my interests are more geared towards mediaeval Scotland than mediaeval England, but at least one of them has to be the fact that I am completely incapable of Being Normal about the Lion in Winter and Shakespeare's second tetralogy.
#Like I simply could not remain unbiased#Not in a 'taking sides' kind of way but more in a 'the real Henry II did not entirely resemble this fictional adaptation'#I refuse to accept it and I don't really want to#I could try very hard to research and write about Henry II sensibly- and I often do when he (or Hotspur later on) impinge on Scottish histo#But fundamentally my image of Henry II is the image of the character from the Lion in Winter#It's horrible to have to admit I'm like one of those unhinged Braveheart or Philippa Gregory people but for twelfth century England#Although with all due respect the Lion in Winter and Henry IV Part 1 are obviously twenty times better than Braveheart#There are other reasons#I kind of feel England has enough people interested in it already#I like to dip in occasionally and it's interesting to read about (and often necessary from a Scottish perspective)#But yeah for many reasons mediaeval England- though fascinating- is not my number one priority#One of the pretty big reasons is though my unfortunate fan behaviour the minute Richard II sits himself down on the ground#To tell sad stories of the death of kings#And you know what that's valid and probably acts as a useful research tool for many people#Just not for me#It's weird though because other than Shakespeare and the Lion in Winter there aren't many period dramas I particularly care for#Not only am I incredibly picky about my historical media when it comes to the Middle Ages (less so for the 20th century)#But I never really understood why people assume when you say 'I like history' you mean 'I like period dramas'#To me these are two separate unrelated activities/hobbies#Not necessarily better than each other just different
