This portrait of the Ladies of Llangollen goes some way to repeat the slander against them: that they were an 'odd' couple, dressed in masculine clothing and mimicked husband and wife. James Henry Lynch copied Margaret Parker's secret of drawing the faces of these inseparable friends, Eleanor Butler (c.1738-1829) and Sarah Ponsonby (c.1755-1831), without permission and added the manly jackets, men's top hats and their well-known garden scene, and mass-produced the image.

My goodness, I wonder what other behind-the-scenes gems that the cast may share with us following the new streaming boost 🥰 I’m so excited to see more people discover this criminally underrated masterpiece!
This piece of dessert I’m drooling over is from the wonderfully talented Cristos Lawton who plays Lt. George Hodgson.

Tag game: Top 5 rarepairs
Thank you @morocorra for the tag!!
Rules: make a poll of your top 5 rarepair / crack ships.
((I’m with Mor on this - what counts as a rarepair?? I did my best))
This was really fun to make! It made me realize that I really like a lot of the canon ships (or at least the popular ships) of the books I’ve been into recently. I haven’t been involved in the fandoms for Maze Runner or PJO in a long time, but I was in the trenches for just about every non canon ship in those books, so it felt right to include them.

the raven cycle series and marauders fics have a weirdly similar throughline
the bad boy falls in love with the traumatized magician
the bespectacled leader has a prophesied doomed romance with a girl who's very aware of the class divide
the fourth guy is barely there until he very much is (or, depending on interpretation, very much isn't)

What AI do I use?
youtube
This will help a bit but you will have to research what you can run locally with your VRAM. For me I have 16 gb VRAM and 64 gb RAM, I run Flux Dev GGUF. When wanting a specific person use PULID here are my settings, in pluidlux adjust weight higher for better face match lower for better quality, have to find the sweet spot, I try to stay between .55-.85. If you aren't running PULID and just generating images you can use a higher Q Flux model, depending on your VRAM, Q8 is what I am able to use. There's also LORAs but I will let you research those on your own.

Some James (and Potter family) Headcanon
Because I always seem to fixate on Lily hc and he needs some love:
---James didn't really chase after Lily because she was pretty, intelligent, and cheeky (though those helped) but rather because she was a challenge for him. Not in the sense that she said no for years and he loved the chase, but because Lily as a person really expanded his worldview. Due to his extremely coddled upbringing and lush life due to his blood status/ quidditch ability, James always gravitated to people that made his life more difficult in an enriching way: Sirius was the first person to ever "hit back" with his own antics and not shy away from taking the piss out of him, Remus had a troubled life completely foreign to James that provided lots of apparent troubles but also made James see bravery in a new light, and Peter made him a mentor figure who saw merit even in meekness. Lily came from a different background from him and despite having a temper was highly rational and never reactionary even when faced with discrimination. Despite growing up in one of the hardest times to be a muggleborn, she overcame it. She found meaning and joy in even the darkest places ( her friendship with Snape being the most difficult of examples to understand.) and made James better because she didn't resign to looking at the world like he did, but rather sharpened his vision of it.
--Of all the many muggle movies Lily showed James, his absolute favorite was Harold and Maude ( Hal Ashby 1971). It was the first time he had ever seen a depiction of mortality really laid out in front of him and it was the first time Lily ever saw him cry.
--Nothing made James more angry than when Lily would be harassed for her blood status and the fact that she was dating him. This feeling was often left unresolved as Lily refused to let him retaliate, saying it was stooping to their level to fight back.
---While also having just natural unruly hair, James like keeping his hair unkept because it was an act of rebellion from his parents who acquired the family fortune on hair taming products. He felt like it brought a sense of irony to the household.
---I feel like this one MUST be canon: James hated Snape for a lot of reasons but I think the biggest was that he was so close to Lily for so long and James was never so lucky. Then, once Snape started to be into dark magic it was all the more reason to detest him.
--I know everyone loves Fleamont, but I am always partial to thinking about Euphemia Potter because there is so little known about her. I like to think she was a very eccentric and worldly person who gave her interest in muggle things to her son. I have this image of her listening to 1960s muggle zamrock around the house ( artists like WITCH and Amanaz---60s trippiness meets African traditional music). For a while I had this headcanon that she worked directly with the Statue of Secrecy Department ( hence why she met the Potters' in the first place due to Henry Potter's influence) so she was very up to date on the very thin line squibs and muggles would walk into either finding or revealing the wizarding world (like how hilarious would it be if someone like Alejandro Jodowosky or David Lynch was a squib and Euphemia was their case worker and had to call them up and be like "Cutie, you are giving away too much, take it down a notch" so they don't accidentally reveal wizard secrets.) For this reason her and Lily got along really well.
--James really loved to read! Everyone always makes James this jock, prankster bad boy but the kid was super smart ( I mean he became an animangus and made the marauders map--its literally canon). He had loads of books on Transfiguration and mostly read nonfiction, but Lily got him to read more fiction and muggle works once they got together. He was more practical about his reading though and was not very interested in the more existential topics that Sirius would often carry around.
--When he found out Lily was pregnant he quit the order on the spot. No questions asked. Lily was annoyed by this for a while. He pulled them out of missions before she had even finished her first trimester and even so she felt like he would have been much more helpful out on the field then playing house with her at home (especially when she wasn't even showing yet). Lily even wanted to keep doing missions until she was farther in her pregnancy, but James was beside himself about the idea of her continuing to be in danger while pregnant. It was one of the biggest fights they ever had and ended with James crying, which immediately broke Lily down.

I'm devastated. They just announced that PAFA is closing their college (degree earning programs) after this academic year.
While they're continuing the museum, certificate programs, commitment to K-12 arts programs and continuing education classes —the college and graduate degrees are ending.
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is the first and oldest art school in the United States. And the college is closing.
So so many famous artists attended or taught at PAFA!! All kinds of them too! Thomas Eakins. Mary Cassatt!!!!! Mike Berenstain (son of Stan and Jan, who took on illustrating the Berenstain Bears!). Apparently David Lynch? Don Martin! Howard Pyle!! Barkley L. Hendricks! James Metcalf, Henry O. Tanner, William Rush, Sarah Peale, Anna Peale, Jessie Willcox Smith, Maxfield Parrish, Henrietta Myers Miller (known professionally as Peter Miller). Thomas Cole. Robert Henri. Cecelia Beaux.
(it is also the first and oldest museum in the US, which thankfully isn't also being closed).
I wish the US funded the arts better. The college deserves to be saved as an iconic and immensely influential american institution, similar to the Smithsonian network of museums — with government funding. Hell, congress people should be FIGHTING to bail out PAFA, sustain it and treat it as a PAFA-Smithsonian arts institute funded by the government. Or SOMETHING. :(
It's going to close after reaching 220 years.

The Chase (Arthur Penn, 1966)
Cast: Marlon Brando, Jane Fonda, Robert Redford, E.G. Marshall, Angie Dickinson, Janice Rule, Miriam Hopkins, Martha Hyer, Richard Bradford, Robert Duvall, James Fox, Diana Hyland, Henry Hull, Jocelyn Brando. Screenplay: Lillian Hellman, based on a novel by Horton Foote. Cinematography: Joseph LaShelle. Production design: Richard Day. Film editing: Gene Milford. Music: John Barry.
Bad movies are often fun to watch anyway, and most of the people involved with The Chase, including director Arthur Penn, screenwriter Lillian Hellman, and star Marlon Brando, agreed that it was a bad movie. Brando let his opinion show, giving a sluggish performance that validates the old criticism that he mumbled his lines. Hellman had her script taken away and rewritten, and Penn struggled to deal with an ill-conceived project. The chief interest the film generates today is seeing actors like Jane Fonda, Robert Redford, and Robert Duvall on the brink of major stardom. There's a good deal of miscasting, including E.G. Mashall as the boss of a small town that seems to be in Texas or Louisiana. Marshall lacks the ruthless aura that the character needs. Angie Dickinson is wasted as the loving and dutiful wife of the town sheriff played by Brando. And Redford feels out of place in the role of Bubber Reeves, the town bad boy who escapes from prison (it's never quite clear what he did to be sent there) and stirs a manhunt, a lynch mob, and a conflagration in a junkyard. The town itself is a hotbed where everyone sleeps with everyone else's spouse and goes orgiastic on the Saturday night when the news of Bubber's escape breaks. It's a silly and lurid movie, but a little too long to be entertainingly bad.

Hii!! (´。• ᵕ •。`) ♡ I just wanted to say how much I love your works! I remember a few months back when I first started really liking aeon, I found your works and immediately fell in love! It was some of the first fics I read of them. I remember thinking, omg this captures them so well. I still do! I'm excited to read your new fic, whenever you finish it! ♡
hello! and thank you!!! 🥹❤️ seeing this made my day a little brighter. i’m just as excited for this aeon fic to be done, despite how long it’s taking me, and i do hope the wait will be worth every chapter once it’s out. here’s what i can say about it so far:
- it’s shaping up to be about 30k+ words that span a single night in Los Angeles from Ada’s point of view.
- it is about my fav things, so: hauntings in every form, love and trauma and art and of course the nature of small talk, the undercurrents of brutality and tenderness that exist in Leon and Ada’s tense, complicated relationship. there are some minor characters at a mansion. awkward party chatter. gardens and secret passageways and one creepy stag that may not be as dead as it appears. and plenty of s-m-u-t. there is so much more than this too.
- any time i get stuck writing the fic, i’ll turn to the authors who inspired the ideas for it: Edgar Allan Poe, Brandon Taylor, Laura van den Berg, Edith Wharton, Henry James and Ocean Vuong. And lots of other media too. One of my goals is to make this feel like a cross between a Wong Kar-wai and David Lynch film.
- i will try my best to have the first chapter out in july or august!
- there will be artwork for every chapter 💕

DALLA PAGINA FB DI SEBASTIANO ALICATA
UN DESTINO INTRECCIATO
È stato recuperato anche l’ultimo corpo dentro il Bayesan, quello della figlia 18enne di Mike Lynch, ed ora il veliero "inaffondabile" che è stato per qualche giorno la tomba di sei persone, giace a 50 metri di profondità in fondo al mare siciliano con 18.000 litri di carburante e tutte le prove che potranno aiutare a capire le dinamiche di un naufragio su cui ci sono ancora dei punti poco chiari. Ci vorranno settimane se non mesi e pare almeno 15 milioni di dollari per riportare l'imbarcazione in superficie.
Recuperare il relitto del Bayesian non serve solo per l’inchiesta. Lo yacht valeva circa 30 milioni di euro. E secondo il The Sun l’assicurazione stipulata aveva un massimale di 2 miliardi di euro. Con buona probabilità nei prossimi mesi si aprirà una lunga battaglia legale tra gli ospiti e la società che gestisce l’imbarcazione per accertare tutte le cause e i rimborsi. Capire cosa è successo servirà anche a decidere il ruolo delle assicurazioni.
Ovviamente man mano che i giorni passano i misteri aumentano. Cominciano ad esserci ombre sull’equipaggio e sul comandante e sul perché sia andata così, visto che ora si sa che il tempo che è servito affinché il mare inghiottisse lo yacht è di 16 minuti, quindi verosimilmente un tempo sufficiente e mettere in sicurezza tutti e ad evacuare l’imbarcazione completamente.
Si aggiunge poi il mistero delle mail a cui non rispondeva più il comandante James Cutfield. L’agenzia marittima che si occupava dello yacht e ne seguiva gli spostamenti fa sapere : “Gli ultimi contatti con il comandante Cutfield prima di Ferragosto, poi il silenzio”.
Ma è curioso anche lo strano legame tra il Bayesian e il Titanic. Il nome dell’armatore del Titanic, il famoso John Pierpont Morgan, uno dei banchieri e uomini d’affari più ricchi degli Usa, è infatti legato al naufragio del Bayesian tramite un filo sottile che rende ancora più incredibile tutta la vicenda. Il signor Morgan è stato fondatore della General Electric ma anche della Drexel, Morgan e Co. divenuta poi appunto JP Morgan (dalle iniziali del suo nome), multinazionale statunitense di servizi finanziari con sede a New York.
Nel 1935 il nipote Henry Sturgis Morgan, dopo essersi fatto le ossa nella banca del nonno, fondò assieme a Henry Stanley la banca d’affari Morgan Stanley, proprio quella presieduta da una delle facoltose vittime del Bayesian, Jonathan Bloomer, uno che nel settore era considerato un vero e proprio gigante dei servizi finanziari. Ed ecco come i destini del naufragio del Titanic (in cui morirono 1.518 persone, a causa delle poche scialuppe disponibili) e del veliero naufragato al largo di Palermo sono in qualche modo intrecciati tra loro.
Come se non bastasse c’è un’altra coincidenza che lega all’Italia questa facoltosa e storica famiglia a stelle e strisce: il signor JP Morgan scampò al disastro del Titanic perché non si imbarcò ma morì, guarda caso, nel sonno il 31 marzo 1913 (nemmeno un anno dopo l’affondamento) proprio a Roma, in una suite dell’Hotel Plaza, dove si trovava in vacanza.
Alla lunga sequela di strane coincidenze, misteri, sfortune e sorprendenti catene di errori umani fatti da un equipaggio esperto, si aggiungono anche le testimonianze dei pescatori del posto che hanno affermato: “E' inspiegabile che una nave di quelle dimensioni sia affondata. Qui il maltempo poi non lo conosciamo. Quando arriva ci coprono Capo Zafferano e Capo Gallo. Questo tratto di mare è il più tranquillo del mondo”.
Insomma, qualunque cosa sia successa, la morale di questa storia e del i filo che lega il Titanic al Bayesian è che si può essere anche i più ricchi e potenti del mondo, ma quando la “sfortuna” (chiamiamola così) ti punta, ti raggiungerà anche nel punto più tranquillo in cui ti sei rifugiato e non avrai scampo.
Però forse c’è un modo per evitarla: comportarsi bene.
