#it's a small nice gesture

Was it racism or snobbery about digital effects that led Nolan to remove those Indian VFX artists from the credits of Oppenheimer?

Yes.

In this day and age of there being credits for the drivers, the accountants, the caterers...why would you remove the actual artists working on the film if you didn't want to hide the fact that you had digital visual effects artists AS WELL as all the practical effects people that have been so hyped on this production. The bonus for American film bros that sit through the credits...they won't have to read a list of foreign names while the end music plays...

MOST NORMAL THING EVER but like… holding your f/o’s hand… running your thumb over their knuckles and feeling the dips and rises of their bones… resting your fingertips in the spaces between their knuckles and feeling like you’re completing them, filling in the empty spots… pressing your palm together with theirs and feeling the way they slide into place perfectly and the warmth that radiates from their hand over time… aaaaaa

I’ve been getting super into ink-drawing, and I’ve found that I utterly love it! The texture and the opaqueness of it, the ability to write and paint with one material, the excellent way it photographs… And the strength of this stuff is unbelievable! Every value you see on this page (Minus straight black) was made using only a little drop on the palette that I mixed with water. I utterly love it!

Very random Bai Zhuoming appreciation because I really wanna say it so why the hell not.

So there this part in the lc musical right at the end of the rock-paper-scissors song and before 'Dive Back in Time' where each actors jump on the table and bow. The 'curtain call', where each actors get their own spotlight. It starts from the side characters to the lead which means Cheng Xiaoshi's actor always goes on the table last before all of them hold hands and bow together.

Bai Zhuoming has this really endearing and polite habit during curtain call. Where before he jumped off the table to join the rest of the cast, he would always individually points to each of the other actors before beckoning them forward together and its very nice to see. And trust me, I do mean always.

Some Cheng Xiaoshi actors jumps immediately, or do a general sweeping motion to beckon their co-actors. But Bai Zhuoming always points to them one-by-one. I'm not saying the other actors aren't polite, but this extra step is very much appreciated and i love him for it.

[Gakuen K] Fushimi Saruhiko Route Translation

Study in the library

LIST OF CHAPTERS

[Translation under the cut]

Saya: Em, Fushimi-kun.

Fushimi: What is it?

Saya: Would you like to study together in the library after school today?

Fushimi: I refuse. Are you really confident in your ability to get that score?

Saya: I'll try to do my best, but…

Saya: After all, there're some parts that I don't understand, so I want Fushimi-kun to tutor me, if you don't mind.

Fushimi: Hah. If that's the situation, I just need to score a little higher.

Fushimi: I don't have time to answer your questions. Ask someone else.

Saya: (I guess it's not good to rely on Fushimi-kun too much)

Saya: (All right, I'll go to the library anyway)

Neko: Ahhh…enough, I don't get it! Hey, let's take a break.

Kuroh: What are you talking about, you spoiled brat? We just started.

Kuroh: Besides, your attitude in the class is always unacceptable.

Kuroh: It's because you sleep during classes that you have to cry before the exam.

Neko: Kurosuke sounds like a teacher. Shiro, help me~!

Saya: (That's Kuro-kun and Neko over there)

Shiro: Well, it's true that Neko's grades aren't good.

Saya: (And Shiro-kun too)

Neko: Ah! It's Gohan! Goha-an!

Saya: Hello. Are you guys having a study session here?

Shiro: Uhm, something like that.

Kuroh: A group that strongly pushes Neko to study. It's a study session for a short period.

Neko: Kurosuke is so spartan! Whenever Wagahai makes a mistake, he gets angry!

Kuroh: I am not getting angry at you because you made a mistake. I am angry because I don't see any seriousness in you.

Saya: As I recall, Kuro-kun has good grades. Kukuri-chan also said that you are good both the literary and military arts.

Kuroh: No, they are not that good.

Kuroh: The Blue club you belong to is the one with the best students.

Shiro: Especially Munakata-san and Fushimi-kun, who are always among the top graders.

Saya: After all, Fushimi-kun is very smart.

Saya: (I feel some kind of pressure. Let's study hard)

Saya: Um, there's something I'd like you to explain to me, if you don't mind.

Kuroh: Yeah, let me see.

Saya: Here it is, but…I'm not sure who this honorific is directed to)

Kuroh: Classical literature? If this is the case…

*A few moments later*

Kuroh: That's it.

Saya: I get it! You are very good at teaching, Kuro-kun.

Kuroh: It's all thanks to Konohana for being able to understant so quickly.

Neko: Kurosuke, your attitude is totally different from when you teach Wagahai! It's not fair, it's not fair!

Shiro: Haaa? Could it be that Kuro and her…

Kuroh: W-What are you talking about?

Kuroh: Because she was serious about styding, I showed her the proper attitude too.

Shiro: Even if you say something like that. Your face is red, you know?

Kuroh: It's not red!

Shiro: It's red, it's red~!

Neko: Bright red Kurosuke~!

Saya: You two, please lower you voice a bit…

Fushimi: So noisy.

Fushimi: This is not your playground. If you want to make noise, get out.

Saya: S-Sorry…

Fushimi: You're in a good mood, aren't you? You expect me to score points and make it easy for you?

Saya: I'm not expecting that. Even now Kuro-kun was explaining things to me that I don't understand.

Kuroh: That's right. And we were the ones making the noise, not her.

Kuroh: Sorry for being loud in the library.

Kuroh: But what on earth do you mean by “scoring points”?

Fushimi: I don't want some outsider poking his nose into things that he doesn't understand.

Neko: Mean-glasses is really mean…

Fushimi: The idiot whose promotion is in danger should shut up too.

Neko: Wha…!?

Fushimi: Next time, if you make a scene, I'll take control of the situation as a member of the Discipline Committee. Got it?

Shiro: Yes…Sorry.

Shiro: Whaah…Fushimi-kun is scary.

Kuroh: If you say it so cheerfully, it's not convincing.

Neko: This guy is annoying~! Wagahai is not stupid!

Shiro: Hey, that reference book looks like it's been used a lot.

Saya: Eh? Reference book?

Shiro: Uhm, it's in front of you.

Saya: !!

Saya: Since when it's here…I wonder whose it is.

Saya: (Could it belongs to…)

Shiro: Fufu. From the look on your face, it seems like you have a guess?

Saya: Uhm. Maybe.

Saya: (Amazing…Every page is filled up with detailed writing)

Saya: (I didn't realize…Fushimi-kun is such a hard worker)

Saya: (I had a vague idea about smart people, but…I know that hard work is important)

Saya: (Alright! Let's get through the exam relying on this reference book!)

Munakata: Konohana-kun averaged 86 points. Fushimi-kun averaged 95 points. The two of you together scored 181 points.

Munakata: It looks like that you managed to avoid being expelled from the club somehow. Congratulations.

Saya: W-What a relief…! Thanks to Fushimi-kun…!

Fushimi: Please, don't make rules like this anymore.

Munakata: It is up to you. I hope you will continue to strengthen your bond as a pair.

Munakata: Well then, you can go now.

Fushimi: Haah…If you'll excuse me.

Saya: If you'll excuse me.

Saya: Thank you, Fushimi-kun!

Saya: Thanks to you, Fushimi-kun, I didn't have to leave the Blue club!

Fushimi: I just took the exam as usual.

Saya: But you lent me your reference book, didn't you? It had a lot of writing in it and it helped me a lot.

Fushimi: Reference book? Ah, I didn't have any use for it, so I left it behind. I didn't mean anything by it.

Saya: (Even though he said that, I'm sure he lent it to me…)

Saya: (Anyway, I'm so glad we were able to clear it up!)

Saya: (I'll do my best for the next test so I don't panic when they suddenly tell us about it)

HEY

[mokutone]

I am so entranced by ur style it's crayzay . . . I adore how you draw Sakura and Kakashi they're so silly goofy

thank youuu!!!!!! :^D i love drawing them, especially interacting together, i think there's SUCH a wealth of possibility that kishimoto failed to exploit in his storytelling that could lead to detailing parallels between the two of them—and woudln't it be a bit fitting if she ends up being, in many ways, the one most like kakashi? the one left behind?

[simptasia]

emelie told me i looked amazing (it's true). and when i got to talk to her, i thanked her for being "the only real australian accent on lost. cuz the rest were [grimaces]" and she was nodding emphatically, did a playful eyeroll and said "right? it was just me, i had to be the real australian, for the whole country! on a show that-" and then she scoffed like it actually bothered her and i said "yeah you were on our rep!" and that was cute. i also told her belle is my favourite disney princess (she played belle on once upon a time)

and yeah, she had the exact sweet demeanour you'd expect

[mistfallengw2]

Back from the furcon, sorted my stuff, and now I gotta catch up with the gw2 stuff from last week! Gonna try my best to go through the new sylvari ask reblogs, but I'm sure I'll miss some so apologies in advance x-x

feeling soft. ♥ hit the heart for a wordless "i love you" from bj in your inbox.

[otogariado]

for all of its faults i do think it's really nice that a lot of the youtube comments on shorts about people being people on youtube are supportive. it may come off as a little performative but i think i can give these strangers on the 'net some good faith. i do think most people are earnest with their compliments.
