"So what you're saying is..."
JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. In this Bible story, Jesus returns to His hometown and preaches in the synagogue, and while His old neighbors are astonished at first, their familiarity with Him makes them skeptical of His role as Messiah. After all, they watched Him grow up, and they know His family personally. Surely the Jesus they watched crawl, walk, work, and play couldn't be someone special. 2. In this cartoon, the skeptic names three reasons Jesus can't be a prophet. 1st, He used to have a regular job as a carpenter. 2nd, He used to play around with family like any kid. 3rd, His mother used to hang His laundry to dry. It's all so familiar and mundane, and not at all mystical or "prophety." In response, the other guy points out that the skeptic has basically said real prophets must have no job (1), no family or friends (2), and no underwear (3). 3. I'm a lifelong Catholic, so I'm very familiar with my faith. So familiar that, like Jesus's neighbors, I sometimes take it for granted. I daydream during Mass. I think about work during prayer. I become numb to the love and sacrifice of the Eucharist. Meanwhile, there are converts who weep for joy at their baptisms. They see the truth with fresh eyes, and I'd see too if I'd take the effort to remove the blinders of familiarity. Faith is a boundless treasure, the Mass is a daily miracle, prayer is an open channel to the God of the universe, life is a gift, and Jesus is more than a neighbor.

Do just wanna say, while I absolutely LOVE the clowning on the people HBomberGuy calls out in his videos and all the memes that come from it, I do find it a bit sad how his last two videos have been turned into the take away that "These people are bad, and I will cancel bad people". Guys, his videos (both the youtube plagiarism one AND the Roblox oof one) weren't made to clown on bad people. They're about how awful it is to take someone else's work and how it erases the names of the people who spend their lives making things. About how people who take art from others don't value those they see as "beneath them".
Dead ass, without looking it up or rewatching the video, how many of you right now can name who really made the roblox oof sound? And to the people who can't answer that, how many of Tommy Tallarico's falsehoods do you still gleefully remember and meme on? Yes, Tommy is a fucking insane narcissist who deserves every joke and take down he's received, but that video wasn't MEANT to be about that. That video was about how people like Tommy who take credit for others work leads to the real creators being forgotten. People like Joey
Please keep clowning on people mentioned like Somerton, but also keep REMEMBERING the people they took from. Remember Joey, a guy who has spent his life working on video games, only to have his footnote taken away by Tommy. Remember the all the queer people Somerton took from, especially those who were lost to aids and can't defend themselves. Fuck these thieves to hell and back, but support the people who are used and seen as disposable.

“Shaun and I had the most enormous fun. I’ve never had a relationship like that before with another actor and I can’t imagine having one again." - Roger Allam “[Acting in Endeavour] was such an amazing experience. Shaun Evans is a lovely man and a dream to work with. Endeavour is such an amazing show – so it was a real privilege to work on. Everyone respects Shaun. It was incredible to see how he worked.” - Angus Yellowlees (Striker)

May 19, 1536 - Anne Boleyn is Beheaded
"Good Christian people, I have come here to die. For according to the law, and by the law, I am judged to die and therefore, I will speak nothing against it. I am come hither to accuse no man, nor to speak of that whereof I am accused and condemned to die. But I pray God save the King and send him long to reign over you, for a gentler nor a more merciful prince was there never. And to me he was ever a good, a gentle, and sovereign lord. And if any person will meddle of my cause, I require them to judge the best. And thus I take my leave of the world and of you all, and I heartily desire you all to pray for me. O Lord, have mercy on me. To God, I commend my soul.' And then she knelt down, saying, 'To Christ I commend my soul, Jesu receive my soul', divers times, till that her head was stricken off with the sword.” - Anne's execution, as reported in Hall's Chronicle (1548)
""On a scaffold made there for the said execution, the said Queen Anne said thus: 'Masters, I here humbly submit me to the law, as the law hath judged me. And as for mine offenses, I here accuse no man; God knoweth them. I remit them to God, beseeching him to have mercy on my soul. And I beseech Jesu, save my sovereign and master, the King - the most godly, noble, and gentle prince that is, and long to reign over you.' Which words were spoken with a goodly smiling countenance. And this done, she knelt down on her knees and said: "To Jesu Christ, I commend my soul'. And suddenly, the hangman smote off her head at a stroke with a sword." - Anne's execution, as reported in Wriothesley's Chronicle (1559)
"And so she went to the place of her ordeal
To obey the will of justice,
Still showing a serene countenance,
As if she did not grieve for this world in any way;
For her coloring and face were such
That never before did she seem so beautiful ...
There was no one who does not have firm hope
That her spirit will not be in agony,
Given her great faith and wise patience,
Which rose above womanly courage.
Everyone, on the basis of her mightily steady end,
Judges her life to have been prudent
And believes they have committed a great offense
In having thought so ill of her." - Lancelot de Carle's The Story of the Fall of Anne Boleyn (1536, trans. Joann Dellaneva)
"Anne, the late Queen, suffered with sword this day within the Tower upon a new scaffold and died boldly. Jesu take them [i.e. Anne and the five men] to His mercy if it be His will." - John Husee to Lord Lisle, May 19, 1536

That moment...
in ‘Confection’ when you realise an outtake was actually an edit point!
One of my favourite Masterpiece PBS behind the scenes features for Season 6 is 'Endeavour, Season 6: The Cast on Shaun Evans as Director' [x], mostly because of all the outtakes where Shaun is flashing that fantastic smile!
At about the 1min 20sec mark, there's a wonderful outtake from 'Confection' when Shaun looks at Anton Lesser and breaks up. If you run the outtake directly after the actual scene, however...
...the frames match exactly!
How lovely to think that at the end of any given scene, no matter how dark, that they all could have laughed! In this scene DeBryn is telling Bright and Endeavour about the bullet that killed Fancy!
This knowledge might just get me through the toughest scenes. And also the Morsetache, of course.

Obviously the structure of an episodic series often requires characters to go from 'complete strangers' to 'close friends/family' in an unusually short amount of time. I get it.
Writers need a 'new guy' in the group to ask questions about the setting that the audience can't, but still (especially in comedy shows) want the fun dynamics that come from all the main cast knowing each other super well. It's one of those functional tropes like L-Shaped Blankets where you're required to suspend your sense of disbelief.
Having said that, I love when writers choose to take this trope and retroactively justify it by later on revealing that the Seemingly Normal Everyman Character is actually as unhinged as the rest of the group— it's just that their weirdness manifests specifically as an ability to form found family dynamics with literally any group they join, almost immediately after joining.
Like, you assumed that they just fit in so well because your group has a special vibe, but then you accidentally left them in the supermarket for like five minutes and by the time you realised and went back they were already Blood Brothers with the cashier.
Characters who are like friendly dogs in that you can put them essentially anywhere, with anyone, and they will just be like “welp! Guess this is my New Family now” and just go along with it.
#comedy#writing#tropes#been rewatching#derry girls#and noticing how james immediately takes on the percieved social norms#and tries to become part of#every group he's in#with admittedly varying success#put him in a room with a priest for five minutes#and he wants to be a priest#send him on a camping trip with 'lads' and he's acting deliberately blokey in an attempt to fit in#leave him for like half an hour with a group of travellers#and he's already fully part of the team#no wonder he became a derry girl so quick#also shout out to an even BETTER#but lesser known example of this trope#in the podcast#midnight burger#where the seemingly normal character who joined the crew#and fit in suspiciously quickly#gets lost in an alternate dimension alien wilderness for several weeks#and by the time the others find her she's literally just formed a new found family with the local wolves#and all the other characters are like ''what??''#and then *thinking back over the past few weeks*#''nevermind that makes sense''

Dark Rise theories I disagree with and why:
Sarcean r*ped Anharion: I find it perplexing that many people still believe in this lie. It's canon that Anharion "had GIVEN himself" to Sarcean, and "the feeling of being taken, melting heat, and the fall of hair around him like black silk" is a very poor way to describe a noncon situation.
The on-and-off Collar switch: What makes you think that Sarcean wouldn't be dead by Anharion's hands the second he "switched off" the Collar, if it was as coercive as they thought?
Will and James will "dissolve" after getting their memories back and morph fully into their past selves: The memories serve as key to make decisions about their present and future. In order for Will and James to decide for themselves, they must understand the full truth of Sarcean and Anharion without the biases, prejudices, and agendas of those around them. Pacat has made it clear that Will and Sarcean will ultimately choose different paths, despite being two incarnations of the same person. The former chooses to rule, while the latter prefers freedom, and both choices are valid given their respective situations. The endgame should be putting Sarcean and Anharion to rest so that Will and James can move forward: Will must reconcile with his past in order to navigate his future.
Anharion's real name was a deadname: I say this as a person under the trans* umbrella. "Anharion" wasn't a name he had chosen for himself; it was an insult coined by the Light side. Perhaps he had come to embrace it out of spite. Just as Melkor (Mighty Arising) was dubbed "Morgoth" (black foe) by his enemies, and Mairon (The Admirable) was later called "Sauron" (the Abhorred), I believe Anharion's real name will be revealed in Book 3, with a positive meaning. I can't wait to call him "Queen (Real name)."
Will or James having to k*ll the other/k*ll themselves: Pacat intended to break the pattern where queer protagonists always met tragic ends. It was one of her motivations for writing Captive Prince and also emphasized a lot during Dark Rise interviews.
We will have a sad ending: Pacat stated in a December 2021 Q&A that a "happy ending [was] guaranteed" for the aforementioned reason.
James has no agency: James has plenty of agency, even amidst his complicated situations, with many people constantly attempting to violate his boundaries. James has consistently made his choices and desires clear. The unconventional nature of his choices, which may not always make sense to others, does not diminish their validity.
Sarcean was fully evil: "The Dark King did Nothing Wrong" nuff said.

rewatching s1 of house and the first time wilson talks to cameron (ep 4, maternity) he calls her ‘allison’ . wilson and cameron have tons of early season heart to hearts (most notably about her not being able to cheat on her husband) but as far as i know he never does this again. Um.
#house md#allison cameron#james wilson#i would brush this off as just early s1 name exposition#except there’s basically a whole episode devoted to that later on when cameron has her self help book era#and goes around calling everyone their first names#plus surely it would make more sense to have this coming from a peer - foreman or chase - and not wilson#who is a department head AND her boss’s boybestie AND has never interacted with her before this#like this is a show where everyone is on a firm last name basis with each other!! it is very notable when someone is referred to otherwise!#and it’s almost always done for love interest reasons!#(see: amber and to a lesser extent stacy)#wilson does very openly call cameron attractive during the ‘cameron forcing house to date her’ arc but it never seems to run deeper#was it supposed to?? we get the start of wilson’s marital troubles in the episode after this so maybe?#i KNOW it’s likely just early s1 weirdness. i know this in my soul#but it’s weird!!!!!
