Um.. Superman.. what that thing stuck on your cape?

Clark's brain short circuit for a moment as he just got back of flying at great speed in the middle of deep space to thrown one of Lex's giants bombs destroy the city and come back in record time.

He turn a bit to look at his cape to see a tiny humanoid starlight dust covered child with white hair, glowing full green that look like white specks stars were implanted themselves into his big ol eyes, nawing on a handful of stardust with inhumanly sharp itsy bitsy fangs.

A small yet floating crown that look similar to one of Nasa pictures of far out space.

Did he just accidentally abducted an royal alien child/teen?

As someone who was raised in a religious cult myself.. I'm interested to see how this au plays out.

one thing that quickly became apparent since i started posting dawn pages... there are a lot of us that came from something cult-like.

im not sure how to feel about that, tbh

tagged by @xxprincess1x, thank you!

Three ships:

Ed/Stede, of course and forever. At the moment I am also slowly rotating Claudia/Madeline, nothing specific just vibes. I have also been thinking about Mary/Carlita again lately, for the carlitaverse girlies.

First ship:

If I really really think about it, I actually have to say Anne/Diana from Anne of Green Gables, although I certainly wouldn't have called it that at the time. Then the pairing I sometimes jokingly call "babby's first problematic ship": Dale Cooper/Audrey Horne. And actually shipping as in reading fic and stuff: Kravitz/Taako/Magnus (and various permutations of that).

Last song:

I am in a sort of music competition thing, where every week there's a theme and people pick music that's supposed to match the theme, and then we vote, and this is from this week's playlist, music to listen to while working:

(I will probably be voting for it)

Last movie:

I don't go to the theater much, and I can't remember the order I saw these in last summer: the 2nd Spiderverse movie or Everything Everywhere All at Once? At home I have been on another documentaries kick and I think the last one was About Face, which was about supermodels. (Fascinating stuff, actually.)

Currently reading:

I picked up a copy of Couplets by Maggie Milner at the bookstore downtown last weekend and the first poem just rang like a bell in my brain. I'm also slowly working my way thru @blakbonnet's Moonstone Mage Championship (currently paused at a chapter where apparently CJ shows up, because I was not feeling up to him right now).

Currently watching:

Doing a leisurely rewatch of OFMD interspersed with catching up on Last Week Tonight and watching whatever random cult-adjacent documentary series catches my eye. Might also start a rewatch of Interview with the Vampire?

Currently eating:

Not eating, but drinking my morning "dirtbag latte" (Aeropress with caramel syrup and heated and foamed milk), in a little bit maybe I'll go get some blueberries and yogurt?

Current craving:

Rather than a food, what I'm really craving is some chill time outside in the sun, maybe in or next to a body of water? Not gonna happen anytime soon, sadly.

Episode 11 - Keep Sweet Pray and Obey (Part One)

This week I recap and talk about the Netflix docuseries, Keep Sweet Pray and Obey, which is about the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS), an offshoot of mainstream Mormonism, and its current leader Warren Jeffs. Survivors of this cult were interviewed extensively in this four part docuseries. This episode talks about parts 1 and 2 of the docuseries.

Safe Passage

[ladycarissa]

The Love Has Won documentary on HBO is heartbreaking. You can feel how vulnerable her followers were. They are extremely attractive and broken, and blonde. You can tell several of them have watched how to be charismatic and demand respect youtube videoe.

Also, .....Robin Williams?

I am the lady who refers herself to half hippie and half redneck.

Someday I hope I get to direct documentaries like this. Once you start doing documentaries you can see all the flaws, bias, and tweaking to make the story fit. The creators and crew really hated the final Father God with a unholy passion.
