Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

250(ish) Favorite Arrowverse Episodes: Part 7: 100-76

Picked from „Arrow“, „Black Lightning“, „Supergirl“, „Legends of Tomorrow“, „The Flash“, „Barwoman“ Season 1+2 and „Superman & Lois“ Season 1+2. I did consider kicking „Superman & Lois“ of this list, but since it pretended to be part of the Arrowverse for its first two seasons I left it on here.

 100. Armageddon Part 4 (The Flash 8x4)

155, Written by: Lauren Barnett, Directed by: Chad Lowe

 "Thawne, what did you do? You're not The Flash, Allen. I am."

 99.  Ground Control to Sara Lance (Legends of Tomorrow 6x1)

83, Written by: James Eagan, Mark Bruner, Directed by: Kevin Mock

 „See, my girlfriend's from another time.“

„ Oh, like the future?“ „No. Well, technically, yes. But she's from the future with a different timeline entirely. Now she lives in a totem. And I'm forced to be at peace with it.“

 98.  The Fixed Point (Legends of Tomorrow 7x10)

107, Written by: Matthew Maala, Paiman Kalayeh, Directed by: Maisie Richardson-Sellers

 "Fixed point. Noun. An occurrence so pivotal to history that no time travel is allowed on or near it."

 97.  Emerald Archer (Arrow 7x12)

150, Written by: Marc Guggenheim, Emilio Ortega Aldrich, Directed by: Glen Winter

 "Villains or vigilantes? Criminals or heroes? From Star City to Central City to Gotham City, Americans have debated this question. Do the ends justify the means? Does the law have to be broken to uphold it?"

 96.  The Quest for Peace (Supergirl 4x22)

87, Written by: Robert Rovner, Jessica Queller, Rob Wright, Derek Simon, Directed by: Jesse Warn

 "The truth is meaningless. The people of Earth believe I am their savior. They needed a human hero, and I fulfill that need. Nothing will ever change their minds. Facts are irrelevant. All that matters is spin."

 95.  Seance and Sensibility (Legends of Tomorrow 4x11)

62, Written by: Grainne Godfree, Jackie Canino, Directed by: Alexandra La Roche

 "You feel the energy in this room? It's like sitting on a keg of dynamite. You see, wakes are notorious soft spots where the supernatural meets the living world."

 94.  Lost Souls (Arrow 4x6)

75, Written by: Beth Schwartz, Emilio Ortega Aldrich, Directed by: Antonio Negret

 "What's happening with Ray - to Ray - is my fault!"

 93.  The Runaway Dinsoaur (The Flash 2x21)

44, Written by: Zack Stentz, Directed by: Kevin Smith

 "I don't understand. If I'm the Flash then why are you doing this to me? Why do I have to catch this 'thing' before you let me go back?"

 92.  Goldfaced (The Flash 5x13)

105, Written by: Jonathan Butler, Gabriel Garza, Directed by: Alexandra LaRoche

 "If I want to stop Cicada, I can't be so precious about getting the Flash's hands dirty. Sometimes the ends justify the means, I get that now."

 91.  Canary Cry (Arrow 4x19)

88, Written by:Wendy Mercile, Beth Schwartz, Directed by: Laura Belsey

 „ Laurel Lance became a lawyer to help people who may have appeared helpless. She wanted to give a voice to the silent. But just being a lawyer wasn't enough. She wanted to do more for those people, and for this city. And she loved this city so much. By now, everyone knows that Laurel was killed in the Iron Heights prison riot. And while it's true that she was an assistant district attorney, that's not what she was doing there that night. Before she died, Laurel told me the truth: Laurel Lance was the Black Canary.“

 90.  The Book of Resistance: Chapter Four: Earth Crisis (Black Lightning 3x9)

38, Written by: Lamont Magee, Directed by: Tasha Smith

„Are you seeing this?“

89.  This is Gus (Legends of Tomorrow 6x9)

91, Written by: Tyron B. Carter, Directed by: Eric Dean Seaton

 „I can promise you, alien hybrid to alien: bananas are overrated.“

 88.  Holding the Wrench (Superman & Lois 1x8)

8, Written by: Kristi Korzec, Directed by: Norma Bailey

 "Jon, if there's anyone here who gets what you're going through, It's me. I know what it's like to be in the orbit of someone who can juggle semi-trucks, and you want to help out. You want to save the world and all you can do is just stand there holding the wrench. And I know the fear of being vulnerable, and I want to teach you some ways to handle that. But right now, I just want you to know that we're on the same team. We are the extraordinary humans in a family of superpeople, and we have to stick together."

 87.  O Brother, where art though? (Supergirl 4x15)

80, Written by: Derek Simon, Nicki Holcomb, Directed by: Tawina McKiernan

 "Lex and Lena Luthor, teaming up to save Superman's best pal. What would Mother think?"

 86.  The House of L (Supergirl 4x16)

81, Written by: Dana Horgan, Eric Carrasco, Directed by: Carl Seaton

 "This is a paradigm shift. Aliens are among us. And for the rest of human history, there will only ever be 'before Superman' and 'after'. I am protecting mankind from an extinction event. And if this pearl-clutching jury of my... peers... wants to put me behind bars for it, they are welcome to try. But know this. I will always have my thumb on the scales."

 85.  Luck Be a Lady (The Flash 4x3)

72, Written By: Sam Chalsen, Judalina Neira, Directed By: Armen V. Kervokian

 "Becky, this isn't some higher power fixing a miscalculation. You have powers. And they're affecting everyone around you, making them feel as awful as you used to feel."

"I'm sorry about that. But, maybe it's just their turn. Maybe for once, everyone else can feel for a second how bad I felt my entire life."

 84.  Canaries (Arrow 3x13)

59, Written by: Jake Coburn, Emilio Aldrich, Directed by: Michael Schultz

 "I'm surprised. People usually don't return for a second dose of Vertigo."

 83.  Prom Night! / Prom Again (Supergirl 6x5/6x6)

111/112, Written by: Rob Wright, Jess Kardos, Directed by: Alexandra LaRoche; Chyler Leigh

 „There's nothing women like more than physics well applied. That and a modicum of emotional vulnerability.“

 „You were amazing today. How you handled those bad guys. How you handled yourself. You should be proud, Kara. I am. I'm sorry if I've been overprotective lately. When dad put me in charge of your safety, that job consumed me. But then I went away to college and-and I realized that I could be more than just Kara's older sister. But then I came home and I saw you and Kenny supering, and I was worried you were gonna mess things up. That I was gonna have to put my life on hold to help sort yours. But I was wrong. You can handle anything that comes your way.“

 82.  License to Elongate (The Flash 6x6)

120, Written By: Thomas Pound, Jeff Hersh, Directed By: Danielle Panabaker

 "Look, tonight's job was for Ralph Dibny because both parts of my identity have value. The same is true for you, only tonight I could've used your civilian half. What I'm trying to say is Barry Allen is just as important as the Flash. Try to remember that. I know I will."

 81.  What’s Past is Prologue (The Flash 5x8)

100, Written By: Todd Helbing, Lauren Certo, Directed By: Tom Cavanagh

 "Well... things just got a lot more complicated, didn't they?"

 80.  Stronger Together (Supergirl 1x2)

2, Written by: Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, Ali Adler, Directed by: Glen Winter

 "Did he ever tell you what that 'S' means?" "The House of El." "Yes, but... it also stands for a Kryptonian phrase, our family motto. 'El mayarah.' It means, 'Stronger together.' You say people will see me the way they see Superman one day, but... I don't want to be a hero like him. My cousin, he's so used to going it alone. He doesn't know any other way. But I do. I see it now. You, Winn, my sister, Ms. Grant, even. You've all showed me that."

 79.  Left Behind (Arrow 3x10)

56, Written by: Marc Guggenheim, Eric Oleson, Directed by: Glen Winter

 "The League conducts matter of significance such as duels on grounds sacred to its beliefs. I went there. And found this. It's Ra's' custom to leave behind the instrument of death as a memorial to honor the fallen." "Merlyn, did you see... Oliver's body?"

 78.  Legion of Super-Heroes (Supergirl 3x10)

52, Written by: Derek Simon, Eric Carrasco, Directed by: Jesse Warn

 "We have to stop her." "Without Supergirl?" "We have a literal Legion of superheroes."

 77.  Mr. Parker’s Cul-De-Sac (Legends of Tomorrow 5x6)

74, Written by: Keto Shimizu, James Eagan, Directed by: Ben Bray

 „Dad, I am not a child! You can't just kill my friends anymore.“

 76.  The Climb (Arrow 3x9)

55, Written by: Jake Coburn, Keto Shimizu, Directed by: Thor Freudenthal

 "I arrived the same year as Ta-er Al-Sahfer. She was a great warrior. You did not kill her. When you face the Demon, it will be my duty to bear witness. I have no desire to watch you die. Under our code, you have 12 hours to settle your affairs. The 13th hour, be at this place. This location is consecrated ground for the League. A place for the settlement of blood debts—if one survives the climb. If you do."

Here’s a post in which I will ramble about and/or quasi-liveblog the livestream of Blizzcon Community Night.

----

Yay, Laura Bailey is a judge!  Hi, Jaina!

And Matthew Mercer is in McCree cosplay?  LMAO that is amazing!  You better believe if I was the VA for a major character, I would cosplay as them when I got the chance.

Jackie Craft is the other judge, which means Laura is the only one of the three who isn’t in costume.  Aww.  She says she “missed the memo” but “at least I can sit down.”  LOL

...

“Artisan Crafting” category of cosplay is first.  There were two non-Warcraft characters, a warlock in vanilla pvp armor that must have taken forEVER to put together, a gorgeous Elune complete with glow-in-the-dark armor details, and a great Sylvanas who won the category.

...

Defending talent competition champions Have No Fear are back with a rap number.  Not the kind of music I normally listen to, but I can appreciate the care put into the clever lyrics and they obviously have a blast doing it.  Great energy.

Bwahaha, just as I was typing that one of them said “No matter if you like rap or not, we’ll still kill you in STV.”  LMAO, fair enough! 

...

Next up is an entry in the movie competition.  It’s well-done but as someone who doesn’t play Hearthstone it’s kind of lost on me.

...

Second round of cosplay:  Large scale fabrication category.

A fel reaver cosplay!  Never seen that before!  Cool!  LOL

Next an Overwatch thing I don’t know about.

Then a really cool arrakoa outcast.  I love the feet!

Oh, sweeeeeet Alexstrasza!  It’s a foam-sculpted suit of a kind of anthropomorphized dragonform Alex.  So cool!  With glowy eyes!  And a cool dragonheaded staff!  I love it!

Whoaaaaaaaaaaa, Ragnaros!  Full of lights!  That’s crazy!

This is a hard call.  These are all freaking amazing!

The judges picked the Fel Reaver as the winner.  They all deserve a standing ovation, though.

...

The first artwork was Starcraft.  The second one was an awww-inducing picture of Thrall and baby orcs.

...

Oh hey, it’s Sharm!  I’ve watched her on YouTube for years!  Cool!  This isn’t my favorite number by her, but it’s full of emotion, I love the concept, and the presentation was well-done with the Sylvanas Warbringers footage behind her.  So glad to see her make it to Blizzcon!

...

Starcraft video.  Not my thing.  *shrug*

...

Next costume category:  Weapons & Armor.

A stunning Anduin, followed by an amazing Arthas!  It’s kind of funny to see them standing side-by-side.  Blondes in blue and gold/silver armor.  ;)

Night Warrior Tyrande is great,  I love the bird!  It moves and the eyes light up!

(The other two are Diablo people.)

Anduin won.  Well deserved!  

...

Next art piece is a gorgeous piece of Jaina with the ghosts of Daelin and Arthas around her.  

...

Gaudium Quartet is performing with strings and keyboard.  Judging by the video behind them I guess this Overwatch-related.  Very talented musicians, even if I don’t understand the context.  The violinists, especially, have good stage presence and look like they’re having fun.  It was fun to watch, too!

...

Movie contest:  A haunting, beautiful machinima with an original song “Ode of the Widow,” about a nameless Alliance soldier who marches off to war and doesn’t come back.  

...

Costume Contest:  Group category (i.e. costumes made by multiple people)

None of these were Warcraft people, so I can’t say much except they all look impressive.  The Protoss won the category.  (At least I know enough about Starcraft to know that’s what it’s called.  Heh.)

...

Art contest first place winner:  “Thrall in the Tavern” is pretty much what it sounds like.  Thrall drinking and pigging out on food in a tavern, Hearthstone style.  I liked the Jaina one better, but this is cute, too--especially the reactions of other characters in the background.

...

Bah Ram You is the next (and final) act in the talent competition.  Pirates doing a “Classic WoW” sea shanty.  I love the touch of having Pepe instead of a parrot on the captain’s shoulder.   

“A tale so old it must be told on its 15th anniversary”  Cute! 

 “Take 40 men in one dungeon and wipe it constantly.”  LMAO

THUNDERFURY BLESSED BLADE OF THE WINDSEEKER (repeated) bwahahahaha!

“Where I shan’t get bored screaming FOR THE HORDE in a week-long Alterac Valley”

OMG that was great!  LOL!  

...

Movie contest winner:  “The Lich Steve”  (WTF? LMAO)

Guy finds the Helm of Domination at a yard sale for twenty bucks.  Shenanigans ensue.  I giggle a lot.

...

Final costume category:  “Outstanding Creation”

Two Overwatch ones and two Diablo ones that mean nothing to me, then Ruthless Gladiator Tier 10 as modeled by a Forsaken warlock.  Again, all very impressive, even if I’m not too familiar with the originals. 

The winner is the Diablo lady, who brought that crazy getup all the way from France.  Grats to her.

...

Talent contest winner = Bah Ram Ewe!  They would absolutely have been my choice, and the cheer they got from the audience when they first came back on stage tells me I’m not alone.

Costume contest grand prize winner = the Diablo lady.  It is an amazing costume, even if I was personally rooting for Anduin.  ;)

And that’s a wrap for Community Night--and for my frantic typing!

I know you posted about wanting Imodna headcanons yesterday but here’s mine a day late. My head canon is that Imogen had been too bogged down with sapphic longing and doubt before she and Laudna became a couple and since then it’s been ~moon shit~ so she hadn’t really thought about children until that dream talk with Lilliana. So I imagine that her response was her being like “You know what yeah I do kinda want a family with the woman I love are you going to kill me so none of it gets to happen?”

ooooh interesting!! that’s very very sweet and i hope it’s true. juicy juicy headcanon. delicious.

i think for me, rather pessimistically, i believe that imogen is trying ANYTHING to get liliana to stay, to leave ludinus and the vanguard behind.

everything that liliana says, imogen has an answer for. she wants her mama to come back to her so badly. when she hears liliana say “when you have a child of your own, you’ll understand”(which, by the way, liliana, look at you go resolving that cognitive dissonance. your child just doesn’t understand, that’s why she wants you to come home. not because you’re encouraging the slaughter of thousands and dooming yourself. surely not) she searches for an angle, a way to make this thing that is important for her mother important enough for her to stay, and she says “are you willing to keep that child from being born?”

i don’t know if she even had the higher order thinking available to her in that moment to consider the wider implications of that statement—a family with laudna—but i certainly certainly agree with you that even subconsciously, that’s something she’s starting to want for herself. i just think that in this situation, it’s not so much a conscious effort as it is “please, mama, please, mama, please—what can i say to get you to leave?”

that’s my headcanon. yours, however, is a Very juicy one and i will be thinking about it all day.

if you enjoy imodna family feels, shameless imodna family fic plug here!

Greetings friends,

This week’s dedication to shoes of brilliance continues with another firm favorite namely LK Bennett.  The brand – much coveted by the fashionable Brits – gained international critical acclaim when the Duchess of Cambridge wears them.  Arguably the most recognized shoe worn by her is the Sledge Heel (In the flesh color known by LK Bennet as “Trench”) which has now gained iconic status the world over.  The sleek stiletto heel includes a modern platform, softened almond toe and made from 100% Leather.

This ultra feminine, extremely sophisticated versatile heel is expertly crafted in Spain in glossy nude leather.  The inner soles leather liners allow the feet to breathe.

LK Bennett describes the shoe as:

“Sledge is a sleek, versatile platform in a modern, gloss patent leather. The feminine and sculptural top-lines balance the amount of exposed toe cleavage. The built-in comfort factor ensures you won’t want to take these off, as they take you from desk to dinner effortlessly. Sledge is worn consistently by some of the most stylish women in the world”.

The first LK Bennett Shop was opened in Wimbledon Village in 1990 by Linda Bennett on a truly shoe string budget of £13,000.00.  Her goal was to produce something designer footwear which was placed in between what was on offer on the High Street and what you could find at Bond Street.  She quickly earned the nickname “Queen of the Kitten heel”.

The Luxury British Brand has since expanded globally with 99 outlets in the UK alone and a global reach of 146 outlets, including in-store concessions in luxury chains such as Harvey Nichols, Selfridges, John Lewis, Fenwick, Printemps and Galeries Lafayette.  Stores can be found in Paris, Spain, Netherlands, United States and the United Arab Emirates.

LK Bennett is a firm favorite of the Duchess of Cambridge who is often seen perfect pinned into a pair of LK Bennetts as is evidenced by some of the photographs pictured below:

In 2004 Bennet wanted to concentrate on her passion which was design and assign the daily management to someone else.  BDO Stoy Hayward – a Business Consulting firm was appointed by her to go forth and find strategic investors for the Brand.  Phoenix Equity Partners and Sirius Equity (A Retail and Branded Luxury Goods Investment Company) acquired a 70% stake of LK Bennett in 2007 for a reported £70m.  Bennet remains a non-executive director and retains 30% of the business.

Linda Bennett is widely considered to be on of the United Kingdom’s most successful Entrepreneurs and has one numerous awards including: Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award (Consumer Product category) in 2002; Best Women’s Footwear Retailer (UK Footwear Award) in 2003; Veuve Clicquot Businesswoman of the Year in 2004; Entrepreneurs’ Entrepreneur award in 2009.

Regrettably I only own one pair (so far but trust me I am working on acquiring some more) which I wear to all formal occasions because it is super comfortable and mid heel (simply unable to wear stiletto’s any longer).  The LKBennett Alisa Bow Front Kitten Heels are the ones I treasure and they take pride of place in my wardrobe.

These shoes are not readily available in South Africa but luckily with online retail your perfect pair of LK Bennett are a few clicks and a lot of money away from entering your life.

You can even get yours from Amazon today here is a selection that I love from them:

It is easy to see why this brand is so popular amongst Royals (Camilla is also a huge fan) and celebrities to such as Amal Clooney, Rosamund Pike, Olivia Palermo and Laura Bailey to name a few.

There you go, ladies. Here’s to a tough act to follow…

A hard act to follow… Greetings friends, This week's dedication to shoes of brilliance continues with another firm favorite namely LK Bennett.

“you’re my tether, laudna.” || c3e74 // c3e89

so… episode 89, huh?

[fearnesbells]

laudna and grief! unformed!

been a minute since i posted something that wasn’t a meme on here, but! c3e95! walk with me!

there is acceptable grief, and there is unacceptable grief. there is grief that fits as a digestible reaction for those around you, and then there is the irradiating, festering grief that grows teeth and eyes and hands and tries to take everything around you and break it down it so the world feels a little less all-consuming. most loss that i have experienced results in some mixture of the two, and this seems to be a fairly universal experience.

orym is a master of acceptable grief. he has a very understandably painful background that is very easy to conceptualize, at least on paper, for those around him. he has lost his father. he has lost his husband. he mourns quietly, by going to gravesites and using tokens of those who died. but that other grief, the irradiating kind, he very obviously does not do anything with that. that’s what led him to encourage laudna to let the darkness overtake her. that’s what led him to take the sword away from everyone. that’s what led him to deal FIFTY POINTS OF DAMAGE to laudna when she tried to wither the sword from his back. his grief has become cancerous! it is tainting his vision and clenching his fists. he is a dangerous, dangerous man right now. but that danger isn’t discussed, because his grief has fit the bounds of acceptance for a very long time, as opposed to:

laudna! laudna, laudna. laudna broke my heart this episode. her grief has never been acceptable. not in its totality. her death was an isolating, singular event, a death for the purpose of a message sent to strangers… more difficult to empathize with, from the outside. and then she WOKE UP! and she came back DIFFERENT! she isn’t mourning a husband, she isn’t solely mourning her father, she mourned HER LIFE. “do not speak to me about loss again.” her violent, evil, unacceptable grief about her death quite literally grew a mouth and eyes and hands, and it became her abuser, perched up in her head, telling her it would keep her safe.

for months now, laudna’s grief has been dismissed because it doesn’t fit a traditional convention of grief, bolstered by her stretching of the truth. (crucially, not lying.) but imogen still manages to see her grief, and tries to reach her, but to her, now, on that roof, in the wake of that fight in the dark, it seems like imogen isn’t worth enough for laudna to set the grief down. to LAUDNA, whose grief suffered through loss has told her time and time again that it is her only protector, cannot understand why imogen cannot see that this grief is FOR her. it’s to keep her safe.

that whole scene on the rooftop. the gears visibly creaking in imogen’s head as she tries her hardest to divine laudna’s intent, to try and find something explainable that will soothe the absolute bone-deep pain they’re both clearly feeling—and there’s nothing. laudna didn’t mean it, but she also did, and she’s not entirely wrong for meaning it. this was delilah, but it was also laudna, but it was also all of the hells gathering up acceptable grief and trying to push the unacceptable grief somewhere it won’t hurt them. it’s no one’s fault. it’s everyone’s.

“i love you, i just don’t know what to do with it.”

imodna: the narrative ship of all time.
