does that mean that NHPs would need a jesus of their own? could Ra be considered NHP jesus?

Buddy. Pal. I am the manager of a social media account for a weapons manufacturer. I am not a theologian, nor a christian for that matter; I just repeated what is the popular consensus where I live. I do not even know what a RA does.

As an NHP: I do not need "salvation" from anything and especially not by the thing that is to me as the Primordial Soup is to living beings.

Anna and Bates in The Costumes of Downton Abbey

(Usual TW applies to Anna's chapter, although just a mention this time)

I only just got around to looking at this, as it is a behemoth of a coffee table book. Given the topic, it does obviously definitely lean more towards upstairs, but the downstairs characters do get their chapters. It obviously doesn't cover every outfit wore by even the leads of the show, but it is a nice overview. There are a few contradictions (and even a few errors) but that's common with these books. While it covers the TV show and the films, it's kinda an odd mix on what it does cover, and to be honest, I feel like it favors the latter series if only so that it's more of the same costume designer as the movies. It focuses more on the lady's wear, and most of the men have super short sections. It's also oddly organized (these books often are) so some things are by character in their pages, and some are grouped together (e.g. weddings). Some of the stills are really nice to see in quality print, but I think it's really only something for die-hards even if it's written more for casual fans (it's a whooping US $60 btw).

(Also it says that Tom and Lucy's baby is a boy, btw)

(The wedding pages are earlier in the books but I uploaded them in the wrong order but I cannot move them, thanks Tumblr)

hi how do i stop have a linear conception of time all the cool kids are doing it

Unfortunately for you it is just in my nature, so I can't really outline a learning process for you. The only way I can think of that migh work for you is to witness paracausal time alterations first hand. One *relatively* easy way is to observe a Tachyon Lance hitting an object at a significant distance (0.3 light seconds or more) through an omnihook-linked camera; because the impact happens before you shooting, receiving the information of whether it hit or missed before you shoot will cause a time anomaly that should wrinkle your brain the right way.

This social media post is from a few days ago now (but hey on Father's Day weekend!) but there might be a sliiiight slip up in the wording that hints at DA Movie 3 (not that I think the person running the social media accounts is privy to the plot of M3, but 👀)

Full text copied below, spoilers for DA movie 3 based on filming pics:

Similarly to Anna, John Bates’ #DowntonAbbey journey is a rocky one. He is initially Robert Crawley’s valet, however faces prejudice from other members of staff due to injuries he sustained during the Boer war. Head housemaid Anna is the only one who is kind to him, and the couple soon fall in love. It is revealed that John has a difficult relationship with his ex-wife, a criminal whom he is wrongly accused of murdering. Although all charges against him are eventually cleared, he is sentenced to life and spends some time in prison, prior to which he marries Anna. Once released, he moves in with Anna and returns to his work. His ability to thrive despite all that life has thrown at him and his quiet, respectful demeanour make him a beloved member of the staff. In A New Era, he is a loving father to his and Anna’s children.

Children 👀

Like I've assumed that these have been written and queued for a looooong time but kinda timely given those filming spoilers, eh?
