wrt: spain/france i think its really funny that francois spent 2 full centuries trying to ruin antonio's marriage so that he could get with that perfect specimen of manhood and his fat ass, and then immediately got bored with him and went back to obsessing over his foulmouthed bilge rat (no ass) and also a poorly-socialized violent greyhound (also 0 ass)
#hws france#hws spain#hws england#hws prussia#TRY AS HE MIGHT HIS TYPE IS WEIRDOS#he got with antonio more for the satisfaction of seeing the look on roderich's face than anything else#and then screwed antonio over barely a century later#DO NOT get with this frenchman he will ruin your life and leave u penniless#frain#spance#prufra#fruk#text

“Well, I gave them what they wanted. I gave 'em a megamaterial gift gala and I hope it brings them great pleasure. Julian, Yoko, both seemed much relieved that I went back to being my other, older, lesser self. And if that's what they want, they can have it till the money runs out or I do with a Merry Christmas and a Happy Fuckin' New Year on top."
John Lennon after his suggestion to ‘give each other’ as Christmas presents does not go down well with his wife and 14-year-old son. Excerpt from Dakota Days by John Green
#sorry john#but if I was 14 and my dad said he was giving me quality time as my christmas present I’d also be pretty peeved#particularly if said dad was a millionaire who had left me and my mum practically penniless#but I do appreciate the phrase merry christmas and a happy fucking new year#john lennon#john green#beatles books#dakota days

Fancasts From Atop Visenya’s Hill
-> Timothy Spall as Ser Illifer the Penniless
Ser Illifer bore gold and ermine gyronny, though everything about him suggested that painted gold and painted ermine were the only sorts he'd ever known. He was sixty if he was a day, his face pinched and narrow beneath the hood of a patched roughspun mantle. Mail-clad he went, but flecks of rust spotted the iron like freckles.
#valyrianscrolls#illifer the penniless#my fancasts#rani graphics#if you’re like ‘whom the fuck’ this is one of the guys brienne meets in the riverlands#i think illifer & creighton are so funny & they seemed to genuinely enjoy brienne even tho she’s a lady wearing armor & clearly lying about#what she’s doing and i was so sad she left them. i hope they’re okay given the continued war.#anyways when i got to them i was picturing essentially human timon and pumba aksjjdjd#timothy spall is known for being a lil chubby in the stomach but as he’s aged he’s gotten like Super skinny he really looks like a delicate#old man now in his recent roles and that’s how i was picturing illifer. just like a cute tiny old man who is funny. ergo.#do i have a hedge knight tag. i should start one.#hedge knights

i've listened to the hadestown soundtrack so much over the past month and still it took me ages to realise that when orpheus is referred to as a 'poor boy' it's because he is. literally dirt poor. and that hermes is not calling him a poor little meow meow.
#in my defense he is SO poor little meow meow i want to pet his hair lull him to sleep put him in a washing machine watch him spin round and#and i definitely pointed out hades' line abt him being penniless back when sunny and i were making mother love parallels#but somehow i've only just properly registered it ahdhsjks#also i have many thoughts about orpheus all the time but everytime i listen to the musical all i can think is#!!!! my love he's so autistic (/pos) he's everything to me#hadestown#faera's

"That... can't possibly be comfortable." is what Tighnari says to break the silence that fell once Kaveh finished his rant about the... new piece of furniture he found upon returning home. He's seen some unique designs himself, some more successful and some less, and even considered getting one for his hut, but. This is just ridiculous. He can certainly feel the architect's pain. "Now, I'm not encouraging you to do anything and you should definitely not start a fire indoors, but it's getting rather cold with winter on the horizon. Perhaps there's still hope for that thing to have some use." if it doesn't become a shelf / coat hanger instead. Anything to keep it out of sight.
[ Sorry, not sorry, I had to-- ]
@drolliic || Answered!
"It can't possibly be legal!" Kaveh shrieked, shrill and bordering on hysterics. He'd been in this state for the better part of half an hour now, with no end in sight. Not so long as that affront to design and interior decorating mocked him from where Alhaitham had placed it in the living room.
"It's the most horrific, impractical, offensive excuse for a piece of furniture I've ever seen! Whoever designed this should be arrested as a menace to society and banned from making anything ever again!" If only he could convince Cyno to actually do that—or better yet, to arrest Alhaitham for the outright assault that was forcing Kaveh to look at it with his own two eyes.
The architect devolved into wordless, pained moans as he buried his face in his hands. "I'm not going to make it until winter with that thing in this house. Maybe I'll drag it into the desert and throw it into the Wenut Tunnels. He'll never find it there."
#drolliic#《⭒✩⭒ || interaction: penniless prodigy (kaveh) 》#《⭒✩⭒ || answered ask 》#ASDJFLKJ YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD I LAUGHED WHEN I SAW THIS IN MY INBOX#TYSM FOR SENDING THIS 🤣 THIS IS INCREDIBLE ❤️#Kaveh is just glad that Tighnari is in his corner on this#he's legit going to go bananas if he has to look at that chair for another second#best bros don't rat you out when you destroy your roommate's furniture in a fit of hysteria 😤

Hey -
#and before anyone @s me about how it's not the same because of the class divide#I would argue that it's MORE brave for Stede to be pushing back against his crew's opinion#he's penniless now and has v. few practical life skills#he rescued the crew from the island but they're under no obligation to enable his quest to reunite with the man who left them there#their opinion isn't a matter of mere social ostracization#it's a question of Stede's continued survival#(and to the people saying he's talking about Izzy -#I mean he's pulling down the poster of Blackbeard when he starts & holding said poster at the end.#We're clearly meant to be thinking he is referring to Ed here)#ofmd s2 spoilers#ofmd#our flag means death

I can imagine the LOV trying to figure out what else Onigiri is opinionated about. Textures… colours… tv-shows.
Then they try out rock music, and suddenly they have a cat head banging hard enough he is practically vibrating as hard as a car engine.
Lol, that would be funny!
#tanco speaks#ask#asks#i headcanon dabi as the kind of guy who sits in silence eerily and isnt a big music fan because when was he listening to that?#my man was not rocking out in Endeavor's house or in a coma#and he damn sure didn't have a phone or other listening device while he was penniless and living on the street for years#at best he maybe saw like some bands performing at like public festivals and idk about you but where i live#that's mostly like cover bands country folk and pop but nothing hardcore just at public free festivals

#I was reading the wiki about William Penn today#the dude was.....an interesting character#had a lot of really radical ideas for his time#like freedom of religion and respecting minority's. And not fucking over Native Americans#hes also credited with being one of the first ppl to come up with the concept of a European Union#A lot of his writings and ideas were used in making the first US constitution#BUT#he was also an idiot and a terrible businessman#he literally signed away his ownership of Pennsylvania without realizing it because he never read documents that were put in front of him#he had a lot of friends but was also a terrible judge of character#he had a lot of kids (most died in childhood) but his only living son from his first marriage was deadbeat that had huge gambling debt#and his kids from his 2nd marriage that lived to adulthood fucked over the Lenape tribe#Anyway William Penn died penniless at 73

Is Iyami more Austin Powers or is Austin Powers more Iyami? Be honest
Austin Powers is more Iyami because Iyami came first! He was created in the early 60s. The very first Osomatsu-kun anime adaptation was made in and broadcast in black and white, which is a particularly adorable piece of trivia to me:
Despite both of them being goofy guys from the 60s with wonky teeth, though, personality-wise they don’t have that much in common, heh.
#Iyami gets a decent amount of dates for someone who’s a penniless con man but he’s nowhere as irresistible as Austin Powers#I mean he’s irresistible to ME but in universe he’s an average guy lol#Osomatsu kun#60s -kun#Iyami#Matsuno brothers#Answers#Anonymous

This look is so beautiful on him I can't bear it
I am in a perpetual holding pattern for Carol to do the Instagram post on the details of this costume, you have no idea.
#i love her instagram#she's been so generous with other costumes so i can't wait for what she says about this one#like he looks beautiful in it but it's also just straight up a beautiful costume#i'm so excited to get whiplash between his modern rockstar looks and his 1800s penniless aristocrat looks in s3#set dressing#kinda#lestat asks#iwtv asks

there's this bit about 15mins into casanova where you meet the young casanova (played by young david tennant) properly, after an intro/tease initially depicting a fantastic chase scene through venice (you love your wife... I love your wife... aren't we both on the same side???) and then going both forwards and back to withhold more of this man until we've understood both where he came from and where he's going a little better. and then we return to young casanova for a second time, reintroduced properly like this:
in a black space, spotlight on him, nude from behind, and then a beautiful rich lush outfit attaches itself to him piece by piece, as if by magic, until he's fully dressed -- both in disguise as is made very clear (he was not a nobleman and was intending to blend in with them), but also as a sort of truth. it's framed as this conscious, highly enjoyable sequence, with casanova participating in the clothes "choosing" him by lifting his arms and legs so that everything can fit, and he stands at the end, delighted, maybe even a tad smug at just how good he knows he looks
that is dr james barry coded, that's what I want to see with anyone putting pen to paper on him from here on out, do away with angst over identity and subterfuge, and have him own it right at the start -- this is a story about a man who made choices consciously, with great passion and delight (although in dr barry's case also with a lot of righteous anger and the unfortunate habit of challenging other men to duels at the drop of a hat), and perhaps he was just a tad smug about how good he looked
#im watching casanova#im watching movies#im watching david tennant movies#casanova#dr james barry#sorry this miniseries has been hijacked by dr james barry thoughts forever#also in the miniseries one of the main tensions is not that casanova doesn't feel like he fits with the nobles#there's a bit of that mainly at the beginning but thankfully it's not the point#it's that he's realised their world is far more fake than anything he's doing but they're the ones with the power#so the tension is how comfortable/uncomfortable he feels in their space because he doesn't really want to be them/be absorbed into them#so the rollercoaster of penniless - fortune - penniless etc. is partly informed by that tension#which ooooooohhhh is so good#and similarly makes me think about the places barry was both as trans ofc but also as an irishman#and the musings on what his accent may have been and whether he was catholic (openly) and generally how that played into his selfhood

I try not to get super political on here, but the New York Times did an annotated breakdown of the (current) charges against Trump and I thought it might be helpful for people who aren't 100% sure what's going on.

Elizabeth Woodville and her daughters being harassed by “repeated intercessions and dire threats” to leave sanctuary and submit to Richard III should be talked about a lot more than it is, tbh.
#elizabeth woodville#like they were in sanctuary for almost a year so this would've happened for AT LEAST a few months during that time#the entire neighborhood being fortified and under armed guard to keep them from escaping should also be talked about a lot more than it is.#especially because there WAS a plot to spirit some of her daughters overseas but fortification prevented that possibility#the way armed soldiers were present during the time she was compelled to give up her 9-year old youngest son should also be talked about#Also her list of requirements to Richard before exiting sanctuary - that her daughters wouldn't be hurt/ravished and no one would#be imprisoned - such a damning indication of what she thought during that time#and the fact that the council was deeply unhappy by Richard's disregard and disrespect shown to Elizabeth's 'dignity and safety'#is also so striking - especially because this was BEFORE he crowned himself king. Can you imagine what they thought after?#idk I just feel like historians and people talk about their tenure in sanctuary so casually when it must have been terrible for them#especially because we know Elizabeth was literally penniless and dependent on sanctuary's charity#and the fact that her entire family (sans her sisters) was either murdered imprisoned or exiled#AND the fact that they had no foreign protection so it's not like they could depend on any powerful connections to help them#like the defeated Lancastrians were helped in the 1460s (obviously Louis XI's support was dependent on his own aims but that doesn't really#matter - at the end of the day they could set up a court in exile with a pension thanks to Margaret's father. Elizabeth and her children's#vulnerability and lack of options were startlingly acute in comparison. It's not a situation any former queen would have ever been in.)#again: people love to discuss Elizabeth's status and nationality in theory#very little attention is paid to how it affected her in practical terms - and this is a striking example of that#even from a broader perspective - we don't know if Richard would have even attempted what he did had Elizabeth birth status (and thus#active foreign connections) been different#*Elizabeth's

When will Gun Atthaphan play a faux-ingénu who mercilessly scams men for fun and profit? I have a vision.
#crucially he never falls in love with a mark#i'm fine with him falling in love with someone else but he has to leave all those rubes penniless in the dirt or it's no fun#a vision i tell you#gun atthaphan
