Double Threat, December 2023

A few months ago I was tidying up the notes in my phone and I found one from Aug 14th, 2022 simply stating "Gentlebeard in Reylo's thigh grab pose". I don't remember when I got the idea (probably while sleeping) but it was good enough for me to sketch it. I am still pretty bad on a digital canvas, so I sketched Rey and Ben's thigh grab on paper, then moved on my iPad to transform them into Stede and Ed. I'm not convinced I like them, but they're still my art babies, so I'll love them just the way they are.

Tim Blake Nelson

Hey, It's That Bumpkin who's Smarter than He Looks

What you know him for: Playing Delmar O'Donnell in O Brother, Where Art Thou, Gideon in Minority Report, Dr. Pendanski in Holes, and the title character in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Despite specializing in bumpkins and hicks, he's an accomplished playwright and film director in real life.

I think often about the heavy irony of John laughing at Wake's name and mocking BOE's naming systems. BOE are trying to preserve lost Earth culture, but clueless of context, their fragmented merging of high and low culture comes across as silly to John (and us. But it's a noble attempt to preserve everything, even the stuff that wouldn't necessarily seem 'worth' saving. But what does John rename his friends? Pyrrha and Cassiopeia and Ulysses and Augustine. He also names almost everything after Earth culture, but it's literary/religious/historical 'high' culture. BOE is scrabbling to save everything possible, but John has the privilege of context and memory, and so he picks and chooses what's 'worthy' of being used or shared. Low culture is reserved for his little jokes with himself— though honestly, a lot of his references to earth culture full stop seem to be inside jokes at the expense of others. I doubt Cassiopeia knew she was named after the infamously vain ancient queen, for example. John also quotes things at people without explaining what he means, like when he quotes Shakespeare and Hans Christian Andersen at Harrow; he's not really sharing it, he's mostly using it to isolate the other person in the conversation, or make himself seem unknowable and superior. It's honestly very telling that when given the choice John will name most things biblically or classically. It does partially feel like he's desperately scraping to preserve something of his childhood and the home he destroyed (especially with the renaming of Gideon to the Māori translation Kiriona, but... well, he literally renamed her and made her into a walking corpse teenage soldier so :/), but when you look at how he deploys earth culture on the whole, it usually becomes weird and imperialistic and weaponised. He's not really preserving lost art, he's selectively using it for his own agenda, and he's often using the two biggest things that were ever co-opted by conservatives and imperialists, the classical world and biblical convention.

I need more jock! regulus fics like he was also an athlete okay and he’s a black so he never does things in halves. I need regulus being buff or if not at the very least having the biggest sleeper build of all time. I need him to appear all calm and collected until his favourite quidditch team/football team is on then he goes crazy - he yells and screams and has zero filter. I need him to do workouts at home cause wdym he’s going to slack in the holidays he’s a black - just jock regulus guys

...I feel attacked.

I'm not explaining why re-imagining characters as POC is not the same as white-washing, here of all places should fucking understand.

Chat hear me out, evil carny bamboozlers, but it's the Penguins of Madagascar movie soundtrack, specifically Chrysocome. Listen to it and you'll get it. It's so excited and happy in one moment, then like, super angry and cold the next, and then soft and sweet, then ramping back, all while being so evil. Like, it's so very Jimmy finally snapping on knowing what the bloodlust feels like. It's Lizzie doing her best to survive and keep her friends alive. It's Scar's over the top showmanship that can quickly turn malicious.
