might be niche but every time i hear roger taylor talking he sounds like he’s speaking to someone who doesn’t understand english
#please tell me you hear it too#especially in the 80s#even when the interviewer clearly DOES understand english#roger taylor#queen

sometimes an absent father is the white woman who cohabited with your single mother in the 80s after she and your mom both joined the air force, who helped raise you, and who gained superpowers and disappeared for more than twenty years
#’aunt’ carol sure thing uhuh#seg.misc#i wonder how many lesbian couples had their kids call them ‘mom’ and ‘aunt’ cause i imagine the number is non zero#especially in the 80s

My life is hard rn and one way to get through that struggle is to look at fanarts for my fic series 'A Full Deck' which features 'The Cards We Are Dealt' and 'The Hand That I Hold' respectfully. Artwork tagged with artist above:

hey gang. reader of Posts here.
you see how the ALT button obscures the text? This is what every post with this setup looks like on mobile; on desktop, the button is more see-through until you hover over it, but not so on phone! While you can tap to open the image, it's an extra step (and then the image has to load...) and it's frustrating to do for, say, every single image in a web weaving post. What you as the post author can do instead...
BAM! Now the text is legible from the get-go, and still has ALT text for accessibility. All I did was added a little white space in the bottom left corner. and it only took about 2 minutes on my phone! I am. gently begging people to do this
[Image ID: two screenshots of tags that read, "#and I'd rather be doing something I enjoy than giving myself a repetitive stress injury scrubbing the shower". In the first image, the alt button largely obscures the words "than" and "scrubbing." In the second image, the text is the same, but the alt button now sits below it, so the entire passage is legible. /end ID]
#my nonsense#on my knees#tumblr#web weaving#because it's SUCH a thing there especially since the text tends to be left aligned#with a LOT of white space on the right. and 80% of the words blocked by the ALT button lmao.#design

if you find yourself asking "how shall i spend the next one minute and 52 seconds?", i implore you to turn to the Wansa-kun opening for the most joyful way to fill the time. isn't this wonderful
#trying to make good on my word and watch all the shows i've been saying i would... those being Urusei Yatsura Lupin Part 3 Gutsy Frog and#Wansa though the latter isn't fully subbed#i love me some 70s/80s gag anime... it's really funny how often the western golden age influence pops up#especially in UY--the episode i watched just had a character turn into a wolf while being a lech! in something made after 1946!!!!!! amazin#thank you to my wonderful peers and friends pushing me down this route#vid

this screenshot is sending me . babes . they slapped a pair of reading glasses on her and called it a day .
#doctor who#dw spoilers#dw bts#ruby sunday#millie gibson#73 yards#i have all the respect to the make up department on doctor who. and i suspect they went for something very subtle#like just shading in natural face creases that just unfortunately didn't show up that well on camera#also paired with the fact that ruby was still hopping about like a 19 year old at 40 (tbh good on her.) ace did the same thing and that was#just sophie aldred bringing her all when she got the chance to reprise her role (good on her too)#it did however have the side effect of making ruby's jump from 19 to 40 absolutely hilarious#especially because the jump from 40 to 80 really was just another older actress and that made the whiplash even funnier

Here are three Inuyashas that I drew mainly for lineart and posing practice. I colored them in the early manga's pink pallet. I think a pink Inu makes him look somewhat ghostly.
#the three patterns here were originally stockphotos that i heavily painted on top of#my art#inuyasha#inu yasha#i really like how rumiko does her line weight ..#thats the thing i like about 70s and 80s and early 90s manga.. the pretty line weight#in early manga you can really see how tezuka married ink paintings with disney's linework . ..#and in rumiko's work especially i think u can see that line weight comes from traditional ink paintings ..#whenever she draws one of the yokai flying parades i just think it's beautiful ahdfaksjdfhsfh i want that lineart depth so i study it

Maybe it's a 'study finds water is wet' type of thought, but
considering it's an action movie whose overall plot is "immortal warriors Fuck Shit Up™️", I think it's significant that in The Old Guard the thing that makes Copley pull red strings through his Murder Conspiracy Board and say "[Merrick] doesn't care what [Andy]'s done with [her immortality]" is the people they save, not the ones they kill
Most of the Conspiracy Board is him circling random newspaper headlines and faces on old photographs to (more or less realistically) follow the immortals' treck through the world and big historical events. Which is, in-canon, not much different than putting portraits from different centuries next to a picture of Keanu Reeves and saying "they look the same, clearly Reeves is an immortal!"
But then there are the connections. A little girl holding Joe's hand in WW1 becoming the youngest (and first) woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize for Medicine (suck it, Kozak). Or the grandchild of a family that Andy saved from [something] helping people escape from the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia.
They are warriors. They have fought and been in the midst of countless wars, major or minor, throughout history. They must have killed as many people as they saved... and yet.
It's not them taking out a random warlord or dictator or rabidly hateful politician that has tangible repercussions in history. It's the children and families they get out of war zones, save from accidents, protect from natural disasters. People to whom they give a second chance at life, and grow to change the world (or even just their own world), like a mysterious stranger once changed theirs just by holding out a hand or patching a wound.
I don't know I just think it's particularly neat
#my ponderings#the old guard#I know we all love to play the 'if you could go back in time and kill One Person who would it be' game#but I think a movie that makes it EXTREMELY SATISFYING to see the Bad Guys die -#- having 'actually the best and greatest changes happen when people help each other' as its underlying message...#it means something#I also think it connects to Andy feeling like nothing she does changes anything at the start of the movie#for 80% of her life you could Solve A Problem by Taking Out The Guy Causing The Problem#especially in battle! you kill the general and you win. if you win the Problem Is Solved#but then everything becomes More Complex. the Problems™️ are globalized and/or systemic.#and Winning a Battle means just killing people. it doesn't Stop The Problem (nor really end a war)#so it feels useless#and even when they save people... they can’t stay in people's lives for long because immortality#which means they can never know what happens to the people they save#they don't (and can't) have the full picture

went a little insane over the Ancient Rome part of Infinite Realms and spent two days researching Rome oops
The Vlad and Danny piece is based off of Anton Mengs's painting called Jupiter Kissing Ganymede
#danny phantom#vlad plasmius#dp#pompous pep#ive learned so much about rome now#if u take for granted that the location shown in The Colosseum#then the scene in infinite realms likely takes place between 80-200 AD putting it into the early Roman Empire time period#idk if that matters to anyone but i found it fun to try and figure out#the myth of zeus/jupiter and ganymede gave me some au pompep vibes#vlad seeing danny and sweeping him away to live with him forever#rich roman men would have their fav male lover dress up as ganymede to serve drinks at parties#rich romans looooved their gold jewelry especially rings with gemstones#iron and other metals were used for The Plebeians#being a bottom was Illegal for roman citizens#so much interesting history#ok history lesson over
