God Built Us Different: A Conversation with the Women of 'Rise'

Pulled away from the Company of Angels Theater at Hazard Recreation Park as the lights were dimmed and the locks were shut after a lively post-production reception, and into the dark of the studio parking lot, I had the opportunity to discuss the makings of COA’s newest community play — Rise by Kimba Henderson — with the cast and creators themselves. It was a warm Autumn night in California, the…

Bernadette's Death foreshadowing

Bonus edit: In a later chapter, he also tries to discourage her from fighting scarlet again which is interesting to me

[jr-skeleton]

Shout out to the incredibly specific but not insignificant amount of autistic goths with special interests in death/mortuary arts and historical fashion I know you're all watching the fuck out of Caitlin ask a mortician Doughty and Bernadette Banner

ohhh curses. the songs are in my head

Idk if this is a neurodivergent thing or a trans-but-doesn't-realize-it-yet thing, but I distinctly remember being given the Samantha American Girl book series when I was nine or so and going "oh, so this is what a girl is supposed to be like" and then using Samantha Parkington as a blueprint for how to girl for the next decade. I still default to the prim and proper mannerisms and language Grandmary would have approved of when I'm in public, complete with crossing my ankles when seated and folding my hands in my lap Like a Lady™️

Which I'll tell you, as someone who's also a southerner and grew up around soldiers' humor, makes for a very interesting combination

A wonderful song to describe the business side of Shadow’s Keep (Freddie, Bernadette, Eddie Balthazar) is Casino Royal by Derivakat. It displays the true certainty of loss that happens when you enter

[theredcarnival]

Is there anyone who is absolutely not welcome in your carnival?

At the moment, no! But every passing day is one day closer to me barring Niccolo Caine from entering!

For his safety, not mine.

Love my Nikolai playlist because one second I'm listening to the most relatable, comforting depressed music and the next I'm listening to End of the Universe from Little Runmo

'Rise' is an Inspired Story of Love and Legacy

Theater is a wide and wonderful world; a place of imagination, depth, and hundreds, if not thousands, of years of historical relevancy. It’s given us the gift of Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest, Shakespeare’s Hamlet, August Wilson’s Fences, and Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, among so many other classics that have affected not just audience sensibilities but have helped frame…

How are the nyra x Bernadette shippers doing after this chapter?

bernadette banner's costume review of the year my beloved <3

[clown-demon]

((I might make some tags for verses for Nikolai mainly...

His mainverse-- where he's in a relationship with MY Fyodor.. But ofc he's open to other relationships while being with Fyodor. He is poly in this verse.

His Armed Detective Agency verse-- he's in a relationship with Dazai and works in the Agency due to being in love with the man so he turned a new leaf. Please note that this is with KITTEN'S Dazai, not my own. In this verse he is mono-- he is taken and engaged, he as no interest in other relationships and will remain with Dazai only.

Single main verse-- He's NOT in a relationship with Fyodor nor is he a member of the DoA. He works on his own, and THIS verse will update with canon. He believes Fyodor is dead and does not know he survived.

For everyone who finds it interesting

I haven't made anything arty for a pretty long time. Not because I don't want to. Just because my life just decided to throw me on rollercoaster: now I have another job, my neck had been aching due to anxiety and stress (wow, like... I was sure that it's my sedentary job, but it's even funnier) and I have enough energy only to make it to another day. I really hope I will find some energy to keep on drawing sooner.

Published Nov 10, 2024

Around 30 women gathered in Belfast on Saturday to highlight concerns about a lack of support for male victims of domestic violence.

The march was made up of women wearing fluorescent pink and included relatives of men who have been the victims.

The twin daughters of west Belfast man Tony Browne, who was murdered by his girlfriend in 2022, were among those who attended.

Bobbi-Leigh and Shannon McIlwaine say there “isn’t enough support services for men” who are going through domestic abuse relationships.

'Extremely hard for a man to come forward'

Mr Browne, 54, was at his home when he was stabbed to death by Wiktoria Maksymowicz.

Bobbi-Leigh said her dad didn’t tell any of his family members what was happening.

“He told one of his closest friends but made his friend promise not to tell me and my sister because he didn’t want anyone to know,” she added.

The death of her father has had a "huge impact" on her, said Bobbi-Leigh.

"There is not one day I’m not thinking about my dad and what he went through and thinking if it could have been prevented," she said.

“It’s extremely hard for a man to come forward and say that he is being abused. There is a chance he won’t be believed, he will be laughed at.

“Women coming out today to speak for men, that’s sending a powerful message. It shows we believe them and support them. There needs to be more support from Stormont.”

[ West Belfast man Tony Browne was murdered by his girlfriend Wiktoria Maksymowicz in 2022 ]

The march was facilitated by the Men’s Alliance NI who are calling for a men’s refuge in Northern Ireland and more support from Stormont.

In a statement, Stormont ministers said they have made it clear that domestic and sexual abuse transcends boundaries of gender, age, sexual orientation, and ethnicity.

They have stressed their commitment to creating a society in Northern Ireland where domestic and sexual abuse are not tolerated, and where victims receive the support they need and where those responsible are held to account.

The Department of Health also said it provides funding for a 24-hour Domestic and Sexual Abuse Helpline, which is a confidential, freephone service available to any person impacted by domestic and sexual abuse in NI.

Shannon feels a men’s refuge is needed.

“If my dad had have been able to go somewhere it may have given him the courage to leave,” she said.

“It’s important that people come out today and show their support because domestic abuse isn’t a gendered issue and it needs to stop being stigmatised as a gendered issue.”

'Nowhere to go'

Carey Baxter from Men’s Alliance says domestic violence is a societal issue.

“Today is a women’s only march and women are doing this on behalf of men.

“We speak to men who are living in their cars or sofa surfing because they have nowhere to go."

Mr Baxter said there is a huge gap in funding and services for men.

“It’s not about taking services away from women, it’s about finding something extra for the men because those services are needed and we hear it every single day of the week in our support groups, but there is nothing there for them.”
