RIP Christopher Benjamin (27.12.1934 - 15.1.2025)
"That was another reason, in a way, that I decided to give [stage acting] up, because I was getting a bit - a bit dicey with the lines. People sort of wrote down, quite often, the things I said... instead of the things I should have said. They were known as my bloopers: 'Benjamin bloopers'. Some of my inventions were very good, I must admit. My feeling was, if I dried, I had to say something - and so that something was something that amused the rest of the cast considerably, quite often."

Leonard Nimoy is Tom Kovack in Baffled! (1972) Co-starring Susan Hampshire as Michele Brent, the unspeakably beautiful antique book dealer/occult expert
Undoubtedly a perfect outfit for a late-night dip in the English Channel.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. The concept is exquisitely absurd. Leonard is delightful. I have absolutely no idea what happened in it. I kept getting distracted by how implausibly beautiful Susan Hampshire is.
Tom Kovack is a world-class race car driver who suddenly starts having psychic visions, causing him to crash dramatically, miraculously sustaining no injuries. He talks about this on television and immediately regrets it (face made identical to a face he has made a million times when asked about ears). Impossibly beautiful antique book dealer turns up and says, what you saw was real, are you going to let that woman die? And he says, you're sweet, but quite mad, would you like to go out for Armenian food? And she says no, but if you want to go to England to investigate your gift and the forces of evil, look me up. Then he nearly drowns in his living room.
Filmed in England, quite nostalgic and delightful from a films made in England perspective. There's an Italian butcher who's lying about his job for reasons I never figured out.
There's this voice in his vision that goes it's Wyndham in Devon, dear repeatedly, and that has been added to the collection of things that drift fruitlessly about in my brain
Anyway 18 out of 10 mostly for the pink jumper and the visual of Leonard as a mechanic.

i appreciate the attempts a lot of game devs are making with gender neutral character creation, and i appreciate that it's actually a very difficult task to implement that depending on the game's base code. but it's so funny to me when you hear an uproar because some game has "entirely removed the gender option from character creation!!!!!" so you go to check it out and its just like
#i swear ive seen this happen in like 3 games now#and every time i am a little baffled at how this is a big deal#but like. well. they DID make an attempt. u right.

the thing about the mummy movies is that you really spend most of the time thinking "wow brendan fraser's character is so cool" or "man oded fehr is so mysterious and heroic" when the fact of the matter is that these two
are the absolute most batshit insane heroes in the entire franchise
these two are intellectual loner siblings with archeology backgrounds who read and speak ancient egyptian, hire a dude directly out of prison to take them to a lost city of gold, and fight mummies literally with their bare hands. twice.
no one in these movies stands a chance against the carnahans. frankly they're lethal in how willing they are to make the absolute and most undeniably deranged decisions. jonathan pickpockets a dude on fire. evy's resurrected from the dead and immediately remembers how to use sai. they're racking shotguns from a cliff in this scene and then proceed to blow away half the antagonists.
rick and ardeth should be so lucky
#the mummy#literally they're the best and i'll hear nothing against jonathan being as cool as evy tbh#the third movie doesn't exist. also.#i haven't seen it since it came out and i have no plans to#1k#baffling amount of notes but i’ll take it i guess#10k#.doc

Hi I'm one of the Americans that transferred to Rednote as word of Tiktok shutdown got around. I just wanted to drop by and show everyone a comparison that is WILD to me.
These are all in Yuan, the local currency. A buck, two bucks, six bucks... that seems really nice.
And then you pop it in U.S dollars.
14 cents. 14 cents for food.
So seeing the difference there, I got curious and made a post asking the netizens how much they typically pay for things, and I asked for how much my meds would cost. These answers are eye opening.
Eleven Yuan.
A dollar and two quarters.
Without insurance, my meds are 400 bucks in U.S currency.
There's no excuses for this. No excuse for why anyone should have to live like this.
#they were baffled some of us work two jobs just to get by.#human beings are not meant to live like this#like im not saying theres one true spot thats better than everywhere else but this spot could atleast be fucking liveable.#rednote#tiktok

my (very white, very middle european, very protestant christian, very sixty-year old) father just dropped an inshallah in casual conversation. without precedent or without any acknowledgement. "inshallah they will send us a new internet router" he said. didn't even stutter. what did he mean by this.
#to be very clear i am not mad at it we stan a multicultural king but its just so baffling.#i cant stop thinking about it#WHO TAUGHT MY DAD HOW TO SAY INSHALLAH
