the fact that a bunch of Allan’s escaped Barbieland and became hit boyband group NSYNC is actually so insane and probably the best thing I have ever heard

This adorable floral print dress is a great example of real vintage clothing being used for film and television. Costume designers often find their pieces in vintage shops, but costume houses are also sometimes filled with vintage pieces. Ashley Judd first wore this dress as Young Vivi Abbott Walker in the 2002 film 𝑫𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝑺𝒆𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒕𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒀𝒂-𝒀𝒂 𝑺𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒅. It was seen again on Sarah Drew as Kitty Romano in the 2008 second season episode of 𝑴𝒂𝒅 𝑴𝒆𝒏 entitled 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑮𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑽𝒊𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒏. This dress may or may not be the exact same piece. A little bit of research uncovered that this dress is from the vintage line called Cover Girl Miami and that a surprising number of these dresses still survive in good condition!

people love to discredit max by claiming that he is only world champion because of the car he's in, and that you could put any driver in that RB and they'd automatically be world champion. this take is severely misguided imo. the fastest cars are more unstable and thus more agile, the driver definitely makes a difference here. it takes a lot of skill and confidence to just manage a car with a very strong front end and a loose, snappy rear, much more to actually thrive and extract maximum performance out of it, and to go so far as beyond the limit.
max makes it look easy but it really isn't, and it takes a driver of a certain caliber to extract 100% out of that monstrosity. would it kill you to acknowledge his talent?
#max verstappen#mv1#now i would actually like to see max and charles in the same team with newey as an engineer#just to see those two madmen throw a crazy oversteery car around like it's nothing#yes shameless lestappen plug#charles leclerc#lestappen#formula 1#f1#max to ferrari? lmao

"the lunatic fringe on my opponents' side fundamentally taints their entire movement, which is therefore obviously morally bankrupt and should be ignored. the lunatic fringe on my side is an unrepresentative minority and anybody paying attention to them is a fool/bigot/liar." <- depressingly common pattern. you can't have it both ways!
#also one frequently invoked in bad faith ofc#the problem with any political position of any statistical significance#is that you can always find *some* asshole who makes the whole thing look bad#even lots of such assholes#and it's very tempting to turn lots of isolated data points into a trendline#but if you're actually collecting enough data points to accurately assess general opinion#that is called a 'survey' and those tend to be a lot less useful for making your opponents look like raving madmen

I need to shill a game that's not out yet, but it's from Czechia and as such I am compelled to do my part and let the world know.
SCARLET DEER INN
I know nothing of this game, beyond one teensy tinesy absolutely insane detail.
Take a look at the screenshot from it.
Notice anything? Maybe you'll see it by watching the trailer
youtube
That's right! The characters! Are! Embroided!
EMBROIDED! FRAME BY FRAME!
WHAT AN ABSOLUTE LUNACY! I'M HOPELESSLY IN!
Also it's made by a husband and wife who make their own music for the game as well.
Oh yeah! I forgot to put in the Steam link originally. Here!

this was the most andy murray match ever. absolute misery for a set and a half, looked down and out, serve betraying them both, somehow starting to find their way in a bit more and breaking back only to get broken again and breaking back again, just about scraping by to take it to a second set tiebreak, suddenly andy's serving great and evo's hitting crazy volleys, then they tank miserably in the deciding tiebreak, have 5 match points against them, save all five and take it on their first. what the hell did i just watch. yes, i know. the full andy murray experience <3
#tennis#andy murray#dan evans#paris 2024#can you believe it? of course you can#that's what you get with two tenacious wily madmen on court who don't know the meaning of giving up

Angsty Continuation of this Crack Szeth/Kaladin Time Travel AU:
"Sir, may I speak with you? It's a matter of some importance."
Dalinar looked up sharply, locking eyes with his Captain of the Guard.
Some of the clerks he had been meeting with had bristled, affronted as ever by what many saw as the unreasonably jumped up dark eyes. His intrusion into the room with barely a knock probably hadn't helped their opinion.
Dalinar ignored them for the moment, choosing instead to maintain eye contact. A chill ran down his spine.
Stormfather. When had the Captain started looking so…worn out? The man's gaze had always been strikingly intense, tired shadows kept at bay by a fiery rage. But now… Dalinar had perhaps seen that expression before, in a dying Chasmfiend. Embers of an unfathomably immense blaze, finally burning itself out. The heat it gave off still enough to scorch a man, but dying nevertheless.
He felt a twinge of guilt. Surely… he hadn't done that? Almight knows he asked a lot of the young man, too much perhaps. But storms… no, something must have happened. He had just seen the man, what, yesterday? Perhaps it had been a week since they had spoken more than in passing, but still. A week of overwork didn't burn through a person like that.
The Highprince cleared his throat. "I assume this has something to do with security?"
Captain Kaladin nodded firmly.
"Very well. Zaninel, Sherath, you're dismissed."
They left without a word, and barely a glare. Perhaps they had also caught something in the Captain's expression.
Kaladin closed the door behind him as he entered. He proceeded to the table, then all but collapsed into the chair across from the Highprince.
Dalinar raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything.
The darkeyed man rubbed a hand across his forehead, palm seeming to linger across the brands there. He started, sitting up.
"Sorry sir," he said hoarsely. "I forgot myself."
He pushed his weight forward as if to stand, but Dalinar waved him back.
"Its alright," he said. "I'm not one to make a soldier stand when hes clearly on his last chip."
The Captain sagged back.
"I apologize for the breach in decorum, I… last night…" He sighed, squaring his shoulder's and seeming to steel himself. "Well, sir, there's been vital matters I've been debating how to best present to your attention, but now one aspect has come to a head. Bridge four had… a visitor to our fire last night, scared the light out of my men. I've been trying to figure out what to do with him all night."
"A visitor?" Dalinar frowned. "This man is a security concern?"
Kaladin barked a humorless laugh. "It would be fair to say that, yes."
Dalinar waited for more of an explanation.
Kaladin sighed heavily. "I'd like to make a request sir."
"A request."
"That you not immediately put this man to death."
"Not…immediately?" Dalinar felt like an idiotic river spren, only able to mimic words/ But for the life of him, he had no idea where this conversation was going.
The captain nodded, drumming his fingers on the table. "I think he's of more value alive than dead, sir. And… I swore to try and help him regain some measure of his sanity. I can't do that if you kill him on sight."
"Kelek's Breath!" Dalinar said with some disbelief. "This madman if yours, he's truly so alarming, that you think I would do such a thing?"
Kaladin nodded, and Dalinar felt dread pool in his stomach.
"Who is this man?" he whispered.
"His name is Szeth."
"Szeth."
"Yes sir."
"That sounds like a Shin name."
"It is sir."
Dalanir stared down at the Captain, uncertain at what point he had stood up.
"Captain Stormblessed," he said with calm he didnt feel. "I can think of only one Shin man that I would desire to kill on sight."
Kaladin winced, then looked up locking those exhausted, burning eyes with his. "Yes."
"The assassin in white is here." Dalinar stated flatly.
"Yes."
The Highprince took a deep breath to steady himself. "The assassin who killed my brother?"
"Yes."
"The assassin who has been killing world leaders, throwing kingdoms into chaos."
"Yes."
Dalinar grabbed the lapels of Kaladin's jacket, towing him up with an enraged growl. He breathed heavily for a moment , attempting to restrain himself as he stared at that tired, dark expression.
"I trusted you," he hissed. "I trusted you with everything I had, everyone I loved, and you've been working with the Assassin in White."
Storms, did he feel tears in his eyes? Surely this betrayal couldn't hurt worse than Sadeas, but the dagger sharp pain in his sternum said otherwise. Had it all been a ruse? The tower, the retreat, Oathbringer…all one large, intricate lie to trick an old fool?
"No." The captain said firmly, meeting his unsaid questions with a steady, inarguable honesty.
"No, your maj — Sir. No, I have not been working with him. No, I had nothing to do with your brothers death — I was a child at the time, and Szeth and I hadn't even met. When we did first meet, I fought him. Then we fought again. I thought I killed him. I… I actually did kill him, from what i understand."
Kaladin Stormblessed's expression went very far away, but his words continued with that discordant lighteyed crispness he had had from that start.
"He was brought back by… a higher power. I'll explain what I can, but honestly, there's a lot a don't understand. He still very disturbed, but he is trying. He's taking another step along the journey, each day. Szeth is only a danger to himself now."
Stormblessed paused, then looked pained anew.
"Well…mostly. He's prepared to serve you, including as a killer. And…he's indicated that he's similarly willing to listen to my commands. He trusts me, sir. It…I realize this puts you in an uncomfortable position."
Dalinar felt his fingers unclench, and he lowered Stormblessed gently to his seat. There was no question in his mind if he could accept the Captain's word on this, he knew as instinctively as ever that this mans could be trusted.
Knew it more now than ever, seeing in those eyes a man who would rather break himself than break his oaths.
The pain of betrayal ebbed away, leaving a mess of emotions and thoughts in their wake.
Dalinar sat back heavily, rattling the maps and folios on the table.
"Storms!" He scrubbed a hand across his face. "You realize how mad this is, right?"
Kaladin laughed humorlessly. "Very much so."
"I —" Dalinar didn't know where to begin. "Where is he right now?"
"My office — my quarters in the Bridge Four Barrack."
"And he's under guard?"
"I have the Lopen and Rock switching off with him, but like I said, hes rather not a threat to anyone right."
"The Lop— wait, isn't Rock your cook's name?"
"Yessir. And you’ve probably seen Lopen before, he's hard to miss —small, loud, Herdassian."
"The one with one arm? You have a cook and a one armed man guarding the most dangerous man alive? Guarding a known shardbarer?" Dalinar found himself standing again, voice close to a shout. He forced himself back down.
Kaladin smiled weakly for some reason. "He gave me his shardblade, actually. As part of his surrender."
Dalinar glanced at Kaladin's hands, as if to find a shardblade he hadn't noticed.
The Captain opened his mouth, but Dalinar raised a hand. "…I'm not going to enjoy your answer on the location of that either, am I."
"Probably not, no."

Wait for you to know that the hornsent npc was involved in the gruesome shaman/jars genocide , that information about him ( the description of his mask) shocked me tbh ...
Okay, first I didn't mind this ask because I am yet to have him drop his set in the game and there is time for everything, but today I woke up to someone else screaming this information at me so fdshfdsh I decided to check the descriptions and the character!
I have noticed that his mask looks like that of the guys whose asses I kicked in Bonny Village, just wasn't investigating. But here are the other things from his equipment:
His legs and arm piece are also exclusive to him! So, this is something I've concluded about it
1) All pieces of his clothes are exclusive to him, except for the mask, whereas Potentates enemies wear ONLY this mask! I'd say that the guy is wearing this mask for it's functionality: "to ward off thoughts of impurity, doubt, temptations, and other wickedness". So, him and Potentates are wearing it as sort of charm, although (and most likely) for different reasons! Hornsent guy wears it so nothing distracts him from revenge! Like... it is just a headwear they have in their culture, just that Potentates """need""" it the most.
2) He is not using their trademark cleaver weapon! Moreover, the description of his trademark weapon, Falx, makes it look like he only stepped on the path of murder to begin with specifically for revenge, rather than having already been wielding a weapon and doing a bit of rebranding!
3) He mentions Belurat and eating the soup from there long ago! (you can get scorpion soup from Grandam by talking to her while wearing Divine Beast's mask and then give it to him) His starting position is also in Gravesite Plains next to the archway that leads you there, which is very distant from Bonny Village. Bonny is a short walk away from the Shadow Keep while the Hornsent seems to be journeying to it, all the while he tracks Miquella's crosses (beginning of course from Gravesite Plains)
4) Bonny Village is just weirdly intact and doesn't show clear signs of Messmer's invasion. It more so resembles the abandoned villages in the Lands Between. The Hornsent, however, lost his mother, wife and child to the invaders.
5) From timeline standpoint, there likely were no more shamans left to butcher by the moment Messmer turned in and his family was burnt!
fjhhfdhds I mean headcanon what you like, I just personally can't agree less and this is my reasoning! Also:
I am taking my sweet time ok??????
#elden ring#hornsent#vengeance-seeking hornsent#(yay at least I finally have a right tag for him for archieving!)#ask replies#screenshots#elden ring observation#also a simpler/dumber explanation for the mask:#in bloodborne there is a character afflicted beggar obviously wearing rags because of his ailment#however assets used to resemble them are pieces from harrowed set and madmen set#it was obvious that they just used the most bandage-like assets to save time making new ones#yet people still thought there were some wild implications over his past over it#and like... sure whatever but it was occam's razor#at first I thought it was something similar but I lean more towards 'this mask first of all helps with focus'

“Death blowing bubbles,” 18th century. The bubbles symbolize life’s fragility. This plaster work appears on the ceiling of Holy Grave Chapel in Michaelsberg Abbey, Bamberg, Germany.
* * * *
I was chilled to the bone this afternoon at King Lear, when this line was spoken: “ ‘Tis the time’s plague, when madmen lead the blind.”

Books of 2024: THE AMBERGRIS TRILOGY by Jeff VanderMeer.
Up next! This series is how I'm bridging my current writing/revision project with the one on deck for my personal nano. They're both Weird Stories, but the one I'm working on now is Weird (genre), like VanderMeer, and the one I'm planning for November is going to be Weird (fungus), also like VanderMeer. I hope to get Driscoll vibes AND some New Book vibes out of this!
#books of 2024#book photo#book photography#jeff vandermeer#ambergris#city of saints and madmen#shriek: an afterword#finch#also these are deceptively small books#they look Slender but the shortest one is almost 400 pages lmfao#(the big one is not cumulatively numbered but IT is SEVEN HUNDRED AND FOUR PAGES!!!)#sir wtf#i suspect CITY will be vaguely ALWAYS COMING HOME#(weird to read and brainbendy and dense)#(since it's also lots of little pieces put together)#anyway i've been hanging onto this because vandermeer = driscoll vibes to me#and then i realized i wanted to do weird fungus for nano too so i'm like. ah. perfect. we'll use this for bridge material.#and then i have SO MANY HAUNTED HOUSE STORIES TO READ >:D#i am very fond of these covers#and they're a good size of paperback#i'm considering springing for the new southern reach paperbacks because i only have the collected hardback and that's not hand-friendly
