Ja'Marr talks about Joe "screaming" at him in college for wearing warming lotion 🔥
#my favorite part is his little smirk before he answers#because he knows he's going to tell a joe story that amuses and delights him to no end#like bro you don't have to keep bringing him up!! but he clearly loves that story (i think he told it before during his draft interview)#just the idea of joe noticing he has it on. like 'hmmmm something is different about the arms of my favorite receiver'#(is always looking at and analyzing his arms! apparently!)#and just like - poking him like...wait a second#get this shit off#hilarious#also ja'marr's use of the word 'screaming' versus how he describes it later lmao#so dramatic#i do not think joe 'screamed' at him but maybe used a slightly harsher tone than normal#to ja'marr's dramatic pisces ass though - yeah that's screaming#(i'm the same way <3 )#anyway. gold as always.#IMAGINE IF THEY WERE NEXT TO EACH OTHER TALKING ABOUT THIS THOUGH!!! COME ON BENGALS SOCIAL!#ja'marr chase#joe burrow#joe'marr

it takes years for terry pratchett's books to get consistently good. I would argue that the series doesn't really hit its stride until Feet of Clay, which means that pratchett was writing and being published for 12 years before he found his groove.
and I genuinely can't imagine that. in part because I do think that pratchett's publication calendar looks different than what's expected of writers today---he had about 2 books published per year for his entire career. he must have been writing furiously, and the publisher must have relatively quickly gotten these to press.
but also....I just can't imagine any modern-day publisher keeping an author on their list for twelve years, unless that author is a prestige get or a constant presence on the bestseller list. And what does it say about the state of publishing that you can't go on publishing someone's good-but-not-revelatory books until they figure out what story they're trying to tell?
#this ties into my other thoughts about the workmanlike genre writers of the 80s and 90s.#king and koontz and even grisham in the early days.#it's a world that's gone away. publishing is a different animal. still....#and I liked prior discworld novels! I think pyramids is great; as is maskarade and lords and ladies#but feet of clay hogfather jingo and carpe jugulum have the feel of someone settling into a groove#jingo is actually really very good. so is carpe jugulum.#you can feel his characters getting smarter. more alive.#(and he takes steps back too; I think thief of time is a good book but it's a little too impressed with its own plot.#and wee free men is a throwback to lords and ladies in a way that's hard to ignore even if tiffany is a delight.#night watch is still good but you know what? not as good as I remember. I prefer jingo.)#also I have figured out pratchett's ''if I handwave a bit about dreams and timelines and magic I do not have to plug this plothole'' trick#I'm mostly amused by his audacity in doing so (and can relate as someone who has maybe used the same trick...)#it's just funny.#discworld

re: that last post i reblogged:
"modern watson would be a blogger!" outdated. modern watson would be an accidental tiktok influencer.
#come with me and share this vision: watson; depressed; in his 20s. spends his days miserably and endlessly scrolling through social media#especially tiktok because like have you seen what that site does to people. moves in with new rommate. new rommate is an enchanting weirdo.#watson with nothing better to do starts making content about his new rommate who can deduce all sorts of wild shit through little details#hes not too worried about letting personal details because he figures nobody will really see it and hes just incredibly enamoured with#holmes' eccentricities. his videos proceed to go viral. watson has now become an influencer. holmes does not have social media except MAYBE#an old tumblr account so hes not aware enough of whats going on to be really worried about it but he does know enough#about tiktok to go hm. i will amuse you watson because it makes you happy. but i will not like it.#violin.txt

Idk how to describe the conflict I’m going through with the hottest qunari I’ve ever made. I look at him and think, god you’re so hot you deserve to be taken to pound town with someone but I can’t decide who he romances. I think the problem is I look at him and wish I could romance him.
#the problem is also that all the companions feel incomplete. to me. so idk#except for maybe emmrich and davrin. but i dont really want to romance emm with him#maybe lucanis or davrin?? idk if davrin’s hot hunter analogies would work with this guy tho#he just looks like he’d be bad with it like ‘if I chase you I’d end you isn’t that the point of chasing’ like that’s not the point bro#you’ve missed the point entirely#and lucanis has so little content. but he does come up to his tiddy which amuses me#maybe I’ll make a poll#or maybe I’ll make this guy my backup character in dnd if veil dies or disappears#prawn posts

okay but once AGAIN: the Bennet sisters are not actually a united front, nor do they share a close bond. It’s shocking how divided and splintered they are (symptom of the house they grew up in.)
#I never stop beating this dead horse I’m so sorry.#but it’s just like. yeah that’s sweet that Rosamund pike enjoyed playing a bunch of sisters she was close to.#but literally …… not …… canon ……. behavior.#Lizzy and Jane are friends. Kitty and Lydia are inseparable.#when Lydia separates herself Kitty gets sort of adopted#and Mary is unfortunately the odd duck out#and that’s just the way it is. (also I refuse to feel false sympathy for Mary.) (a sentimentality beyond my powers or desire)!#‘I want to hear more about Mary Bennet! what’s her story!’ is an insane take to me#Mary is a silly (and stubborn in her silliness) side character. maybe she grows up one day maybe she doesn’t#it isn’t my business nor the readers#I do think it’s funny and yes a little cruel how Mr. Bennet insists on including her in his list of silly daughters#it’s a failing on his part. as is his disdain/amusement at any of his daughters#but you know WHAT. he isn’t wrong#Mary wished to say something sensible but knew not how Bennet is not a tortured side character with a lonely soul.#she’s a 19 year old in a very foolish stage#she’s also vain!#like girl. literally no one wants your concertos here#sorry you have such unhelpful parents but like …

I need more fics of Zuko working at a teashop with Iroh (be it Pao's (iirc) or the Jasmine Dragon) but he's just really fucking short. Because can you imagine, be it Jet, Katara, anyone who's met Zuko (either as Zuko or as Li) stumbles into the teashop, makes a scene and comes off as a bad guy because they bullied this little boy?
I think I've read just one fanfic where this was a thing and I need more people to adopt the idea.
I just think it'd be funny if Katara tried to do what Jet did (let's say this happened a few days prior to Azula capturing Ba Sing Se), left because she realized no one believed her, returned later with the rest of the Gaang, Sokka tried backing her claim, he ALSO gets reprimanded for making stuff up about a little boy, and meanwhile this is all happening Aang and Toph are having a delightful time with their new friend "Li." Should they do something? Maybe. Will they? Nah, anyways Li what tea would you recommend?
#zuko#katara#aang#jet#sokka#toph#li from the tea shop#atla#i love the idea of zuko just accepting his new role as a child (you are one honey but whatever)#and using it to get out of trouble with people who recognize him#''how dare you say such things about mushi's nephew?''#''the audacity of some of you; you're older than he is you should know better than bully a child!''#''li is such a darling i wish he'd smile more and maybe he would if SOMEONE didn't make him feel uncomfortable.''#etc. etc. etc.#of the gaang i think toph would be the one to go with it#know her friends are saying the truth#and just straight up deny what they're saying#she knows that this little boy is her friends enemy (and hers but like they haven't fought so is he really?)#but it's so much more amusing to see katara and sokka scramble to get support#she's not sure where aang stands until she hears him try to befriend ''li''#bonus points to aang if he succeeds (like actually succeeds)

so as I'm sure y'all remember, I went insane when I found the montage of unreleased footage from the Gladiator DVD. I'm planning to do a full breakdown of all the new footage I discovered in there, but I just couldn't wait to share these because they are SO INTERESTING to me. it's like a four second clip of Maximus in his tent in Germania, featuring him doing something where he's shuffling some nutshells around
is he not just the cutest thing <3
but like??? I am so curious about what he's doing!!! it's probably a strategy technique, like him using the nutshells to represent different sections of his army and planning their attack. if not, maybe it's some kind of Roman version of solitaire?? I mean he's been on the road for years at this point, and how adorable would it be if this is his little nighttime unraveling technique, like a crossword puzzle or smth??
idk I just was awestruck by this little moment and wanted to share :)
#look at my precious husband#his sweet face his sweet adorable precious face!!!!!#i'm obsessed with the concentrated expression with the tiniest hint of amusement#i have to think this takes place after the battle of germania#since he's not in his tent until afterward#unless?? this was an alternate opening / intro to maximus???#maybe we were originally going to meet the general while he's scheming the attack in his tent???#i don't even care#i'm just SO INSANELY EXCITED TO HAVE A TINY SCRAP OF NEW FOOTAGE OF MY BELOVED#it's a 25 year old movie and i thought i had seen every crumb of maximus content in existence#and then HERE HE IS#there are quite a few extra shots that i will share very soon#i just couldn't resist showing these first hehe#imagine playing a little strategy game with him before bed#all cozy in your shared tent just enjoying spending time together#imagine how precious it would be <3#he's so soft here#so sweet and cozy and intent#i NEED HIM#i love him SO MUCH#gladiator#maximus#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000#russell crowe#low quality screencaps of a high quality man

Mini shadowhunters stealth training
I just want young shadowhunters in training to test out their stealthiness by following the HOTI and the High Warlock around town.
Which the two are aware of the whole time, because the kids aren't that good yet. Leaving Magnus mostly bemused, and Alec grumbly. (Because 1: This is his "Magnus time" and it is not to be disturbed. And 2: Witnessing these kids bumble along while thinking of themselves as master spies is grating on his professional pride and he is going to upp the training for these little shits. Because Magnus' cooing as one of them almost falls into a fountain while trying to eaves drop on their conversation, is giving him the most inappropriate thoughts. And it's the middle of the day and they are being followed by a bunch of kids and he can't very well drag Magnus into the nearest alley and make out with him now, can he?)
#magnus bane#alec lightwood#malec#shadowhunters tv#malec headcanons#shadowhunter kids trying to be stealthy#and failing miserably#magnus being very amused#alec being very grumpy#he is gonna train those little shits so hard#and maybe he will use them as anti obstacle devices#as in whenever someone looks like they are going to ruin his Magnus time#he will call on the kids to tackle the person to the ground

russell crowe promo interview for gladiator (2000)
#russell crowe#gladiator#russellcroweedit#croweedit#gilles gifs#i listened to this multiple times but he really says “me sword”#he also does a little sword gesture but there is french hardcoded subtitles so i cropped it as much as i could#i think it is so amusing how humble he is about his role in gladiator#because (1 it won him an oscar and (2 a LOT of the traits maximus has are mannerisms from him#and some essential things to the story are russells idea#it only had 21 pages of script so there was A Lot on the table and up for a change when they were shooting#it literally would have been a completely different movie without russell#not necessarily bad but just??? maybe it would have flopped you never know

Assen 2004: Jorge Lorenzo, Casey Stoner, Andrea Dovizioso and Roberto Locatelli compete in an intense last lap battle in the 125cc race, during which Lorenzo runs onto the grass.
From Riveras Tobia's 'Jorge Lorenzo: My Story So Far':
I picked up my bad reputation in 2004. It was at Assen, in the Dutch TT, when I ran onto the grass and came back to go from fourth to first in half a lap. I made some pretty risky moves to get past Locatelli, Dovizioso and Stoner.
From Stoner's autobiography:
I had my first real chance to win in round six, at Assen, but I got screwed up by Jorge Lorenzo's antics on the final lap. The two of us were in a scrap with Locatelli and Dovizioso and I was the strongest in the last part of the track so I felt like I had the race under control. Lorenzo was on the grass in a few places, doing whatever he felt was necessary to make a pass, and midway around the final lap as we tipped into a flat-out left he came through and nearly wiped me out, costing me a couple of positions and, to my mind, potentially the win. It was typical of him at the time and I wasn't too happy [...].
At Rio, Valentino Rossi is asked about the last lap of the 125cc race - having been involved in a controversial last lap of his own at Assen.
Q: Just one more question - Valentino, back at Assen I wondered if you had time to watch the 125 race and if you did, did you watch the last lap and what did you think of the last lap of the 125 race at Assen? VR: [laughs] Yes, I watch the 125 live. Eh - the last lap was incredible. For sure, all the riders are very aggressive, maybe risk a little bit too much, especially when change the line in the straight. But the 125 is like this, also when we were in 125. The bike go a little bit more slow, are lighter, so is possible to make that maneuver like stay on the grass with the gas open. Q: Perhaps MotoGP is becoming like 125. VR: A little bit, yes, unfortunately is impossible - because we need less time for the same piece of straight, the same part of the track. For sure is more difficult but when the races are so close like in Assen or in South Africa or in Mugello also, have great fun for sure.
#idk i just find it so endearing valentino was watching those little nutters come through the ranks#unfortunately idk what dovi thought of that last lap but i'm gonna take a wild guess and say he wasn't particularly amused#valentino calling jorge and casey aggressive and saying they maybe risk a bit too much.... beautiful#//#brr brr#heretic tag#alien tag#wall tag#morale tag#jorge/vale low key kinda in sync. both commit last lap terrorism in assen 2004#both commit massive crimes in motegi 2005 - jorge's so bad that he gets a race ban#teammates who commit crimes together stay trapped in a hellish neverending teammate marriage together or something

After Azran Legacy Descole was left with a lot of clothes, personal items, and various souvenir trinkets left behind by the other former passengers of the Bostonious none of which was ever properly retrieved due to the groups sudden parting.
Rather than throwing it all out Descole has been trying to covertly return all items back to their original owners and because it’s Descole he’s probably returning the objects and whatnot in the most complicated way possible over a period of time.
Auroras stuff in particular remains safely stored in a box on the Bostonious.
#professor Layton#jean descole#desmond sycamore#gens musings#wowie headcanons :)#azran legacy#i was thinking about how everyone in the bostonious crew was suckered into buying one of those popono souvenirs#and how Des was ultimately left with a hoard of them because there's no way that anyone got to properly collect their stuff#before having to rush off to the Azran sanctuary#thoroughly amused by the thought of Des trying to offload some of this stuff for way longer than needbe bc hes trying to be sneaky about it#like maybe he could just throw it away but absolutely has this lingering sense of guilt especially with more of the personal items#that would've belonged to the various members that he would now have context for#like idk Des is just standing over the trash with like a teddy bear that Luke owns n he cant bring himself to properly toss it#and raymonds like why dont we just mail them back#n des is like “akshdkajshdkjahsdkhasdk its stupud little beady little eyes have won this encounter- u win this time sir cuddles-”#“had i not known the context of your origins you would have been in a landfill by now”#wonder if emmy wouldve gotten any photos developed on their trip bc oooh the evil thought of des having to review them b4 sending them back#I think there was no attempt to toss auroras stuff at any point i think the guilt would actually kill him#most of her stuff would just comprised of souvenirs gained over the trip#HELP HELP HELP I ELABORATED TOO MUCH IN THE TAGS SORRY

I'm rewatching s1 again and I think it's so fucking funny how much every other doctor except nine absolutely hates guns. nine is SO excited to shoot that goddamn dalek. he is READY he is DOWN he is soooo for it. he points a gun at rose tyler and doesn't even think about it until she scolds him for it.
and then in bad wolf where he's incredibly comfortable about holding that big ass blaster. never gets onto jack about parading around with them either. just does not bat an eye. in fact he is threatening people with it, even if it is a farce.
the others would NEVER lol
#admittedly I haven't watched thirteen yet but I am assuming she's the same as the rest#and I know about the end of time specials shush I know I watched them#but ten does not have the same casualness. like. at all. in the slightest#I mean it's not that nine LIKES guns. that's not what I'm saying#it's just his attitude and how he treats them compared to every regeneration after him#plus he's so unbothered by having guns pointed at him as well#which I know most aren't too bothered either but he is completely uncaring. finds it a little amusing even#maybe I'm misremembering the rest a little bit since s1 is the only one I've come back to over and over again#but I think this is pretty accurate#and I UNDERSTAND why his attitude is different but I still think it's funny#ninth doctor#doctor who#so I uh just now remembered this but twelve LITERALLY shot a guy. so. maybe HE would#big differences there I suppose with twelve are into the dalek and how he treats danny and other examples I'm sure I forgot#so I still don't think I'm wrong but yeah twelve certainly bends it a bit
