Do you own any Looney Tunes production art?
i’m incredibly fortunate enough to say that I DO!! i own this wonderful photostat model sheet from Porky the Wrestler!
a photostat is essentially the ‘30s equivalent of a photocopy, so it’s not THE actual model sheet drawing, but it was still in the hands of at least one of the animators who worked on the short! if you hold it at a certain angle and get the light to reflect off of it, there are actually some indentations of writing, as if someone was writing on a piece of paper on top of it… and of course the hooves and side snout drawn in marker which aren’t meant to be there (maybe it was a slow work day?)
i actually still haven’t gotten it framed, i need to… but i also just really enjoy being able to hold it in my hands and try and make out the writing indentations on top and also lose my mind at Oh My God Someone In The Tex Avery Unit Touched This At One Point. plus, the material is glossy/has a cardboard sort of feel to it (like a more sturdy printed photograph) so it’s not as delicate as animation paper and gets along fine sitting on my shelf as is HAHA. still, definitely want to find a proper means of displaying it sometime!
#it’s the oldest item in my collection :) i presume from sometime in late 1936 since the short was released in very early 1937#second oldest is my 1938 Porky’s Duck Hunt book#thennn a Porky compilation comic book from 1942? then things get a little ambiguous with the age but generally span from the mid 40s#such as my Porky coasters Porky and Daffy pencil stand and piggy bank respectively and ceramic Daffy figure#i have a LT record album from 1947 and then a Bugs Bunny little golden book and Dell comic book from 1949… and two other Dell comics from 1#1950 and 1951. aaand a Pepe Pepsi glass from the 70s#and that’s the extent of my vintage collection!#anonymous#asks#I FORGOT MY PORKY SQUEAK TOY! i have a rubber Porky squeak toy from sometime in the 50s also and he is very cute and makes me happy#he stands proudly next to the ceramic Daffy figure as they both keep the peace

hii i hope you’re doing alright !! Just wanted to know if you have any idea of when you’re going to publish the last far galaxies chapter !!! i love the fic and i can’t wait to read chapter 11 !! have a good day/night :)
thank you for reading!!!!! the answer is soon but not soon soon unfortunately this chapter is a BEAST like a BEAST of a BEAST and no matter how many words i write THERES STILL MORE A;SLJLSDHGLSHGQV
have a good day/night :) here are the first few hundred words <3
Hours later, after piling themselves back on the ship and cutting through space to the rendezvous point, they were back on the star base.
It felt like a true whirlwind, a few hours of action so packed he could hardly think and now somehow Nico found himself walking the same gray halls, up the same ramp, into the ship, into his empty room. The privacy panels were drawn, the room in near darkness. It was late in the night, not even Command at the ready. They’d meet first thing in the morning, a disgustingly early call time already on his schedule, something he’d have to be dragged out of bed to make.
For the time being, he was alone. Will had marched Thalia straight off to the medbay, hearing no arguments but enough complaints that Nico pitied him greatly. Jason and Piper went off to meet Annabeth wherever she was, and Leo was already setting himself on ship repairs, more than enough crafts lined up for him to choose from. Nico hadn’t felt the slightest bit of temptation to follow any of them.
Nico sat on the edge of the bed, his legs coming out from under him. Quite suddenly, he felt exhausted down to the bone. He felt like he could sleep for a month and still want a nap.
He dropped his head into his hands. He thought of the look in Thalia’s eyes, the anguish.
Nico had taken his eye off the ball. It was a fact. If he’d faced one delay in the trees, an extra few minutes spent somewhere else, Thalia would be dead. And it’d be what she wanted. The thought was enough to tighten his throat, painful.
Things could have gone so differently. He could be standing somewhere completely different, a completely different person.
Nico didn’t let himself think on it very long. He grabbed for his comm. It only took a few rings until there was a mechanical click, the line connecting.
“I messed up,” Nico muttered into the dark. “I don’t know what to do.”
There was a pause. “Do you want me to come?”
Nico swallowed, wholly unsure. He was just figuring out what to say, how to even respond to that, when -
“Send your coordinates,” Bianca decided in a second, crisp in his ear. “Let your leadership know, I’m bringing the Huntresses.”
#LETS GO LESBIANS#oh my god this chapter is so so so long and ITS NOT CLOSE TO BEING DONE#ok its like 70% done but ?????? ITS 68K RIGHT NOW????? oh my gooood AND THERES STILL 33 BEATS/SCENES TO FINISH#i have a joke with my mom that everyday i clock out of work and clock into fic and its like. yes. oh my god. but yes#in my head i soooo wanted it done before my birthday as a little treat for me a la slasher fic but oh my gooood its not happening#i am foreseeing an early to mid June update but!!!! i am visiting family next week and hope to get a lot done while im off <3 <3 <3#space fic

Writing my 1960's au sometimes feels like I'm pouring fuck-tons of information (and music) into my brain, adding a couple of cartoon lesbians, hitting "puree," and pouring the results into gdocs and ao3.
The irony is that I cannot imagine anyone who lived through that era and place reading the thing so it doesn't matter that much how accurate it is??? Like are there boomers out there reading wacky catradora au's on ao3????? I'm barely Gen X (born in 1979) and I know I'm on the older side in this fandom, okay
But man, knowing All The Things just makes the whole thing easier to "see" play out in my head
#april writes#did anyone else do the math and realize i made catra and adora literal boomers in this fic bc I keep laughing about it#like if my fic's version of them were real they'd be in their mid-70's right now#they could live where I work#(there are in fact some old hippies living where I work)#I could be calling them to say their prescriptions got delivered#I haven't decided whether the epilogue will include a kid (probably)#but if they have a kid when they're in their late 20's/early 30's the kid would be about MY AGE

what ages do you guys truth for the companions btw (idk which ones have canon ages i forgor <3) sound off in the tags or replies or w/e
#4 ME.... i think like 20 y/o ali and maybe like 25/26 year old zev and leli. im controversial i think morrigan is like 27#and just emotionally stunted. i think wynne is late 60s early 70s and canon genuinely make a math mistake. sten and oghren are prob both#in their 40s#for da2 as of act 1 i put anders somewhere in 29-31 age range. bela at maybe 27/28. fenris around 25/26 and seb around there too.#merrill maybe 24ish and varric and aveline both in their mid-late 30s#for inq josie in her late 20s dorian at about 30 and sera at like 19/20 and cole also around there. bull maybe late 30s#solas early 40s (or so he seems..) cass like 45/46. and i know blackwall is probably on the older side of his 40s but i put him on the#younger side bc he already has an insane age gap with my trev lmao#if i forgot anyone here obviously i don't care about them and you should probably send me hate mail

Inspector Morley, Late of Scotland Yard, Investigates: The Case of the Scarlet Letters (1.3, WGN-TV, 1952)
"Mr. Mullins, I have in my possession sixty-eight letters, none of which has begun to outlive its usefulness. I'm quite prepared to admit that blackmail is risky, but then murder has its disadvantages too - that is why I gave up murder."
#inspector morley late of scotland yard investigates#inspector morley late of scotland yard#(there's some confusion about the correct title of this series; it appears onscreen with 'investigates' but many online sources omit the#final word and it wouldn't be unique in having a title screen that differed slightly from the official name of the show; either way it's a#hell of an unwieldy name for your programme.....)#classic tv#1952#john gilling#victor m. gover#tod slaughter#patrick barr#tucker mcguire#leonard sharp#another rediscovered gem made available by the good folks at kaleidoscope#oof. ok. so the story of Inspector Morley is complicated and still semi mysterious (the show is 70 years old after all‚ there's precious#little surviving documentation). as far as it goes‚ this was a UK production intended for sale to the BBC (there existing no independent tv#company in 1952). the beeb‚ for whatever reason‚ passed on the series. 13 episodes had been made and of these about seven were cobbled#together into feature films to recoup some of the costs; those survived and saw occasional outings on rainy afternoon tv schedules here#it was thought that the remainder were junked‚ but research (not my own i hasten to add) has revealed that the whole series was in fact sol#to the US where it was shown on WGN (a Chicago based station i believe). when kaleidoscope recovered this particular episode some 6 or 7#years ago‚ it was thought to be the sole surviving episode‚ at least in its original format (ie. not edited into a feature). actually it#sounds like they might all exist and a few are even on youtube (including this one). this is very early detective tv and it shows its age#not just in its ropey visuals (it's all quite soft and fuzzy) but in its very old fashioned shape and design‚ which is closer to mid#century film than what television would shortly become. that sensation is only furthered by the presence of the immortal Tod Slaughter‚ a#bastion of early british cinema and one of the first horror icons the uk ever produced. unusually‚ it seems like he starred in most (if not#all) of the episodes of the series; unusual bc he plays the villain‚ opposite Barr's staunch ex copper Morley. having a recurring villain#must certainly have helped when editing the shows into films for cinema release but it was quite a strange choice for tv#tho perhaps a set cast reduced costs (this was clearly a budget production‚ tho it does feature some impressive early location shooting)#Slaughter is great fun‚ in full scenery chewing mode as the wicked and unrepentant mastermind behind all sorts of crimes#Barr even has personal beef with him‚ though it would require seeing the other eps to fully understand it i suspect

i’m thinking about matt’s childhood crush on gil getting obliterated within the first few months of entering the great war. matthew getting catapulted into horrors he’s never seen at the hands of the enemy and it wrecks him. it changes him permanently, the same as ludwig. it’s a wake up call and a coming of age.
thinking how matt would inevitably meet gil in battle, possibly vimy ridge. captured the fort and bursts in, sees gilbert who’s being backed against a wall and goes cold. and even if gil doesn’t recognize him personally it’s obvious who this is. all this happening in an instant, gil opens his mouth but matt has his gun raised and just puts a bullet through his head. then two, then three and four. nothing in his eyes. and turns on his heel to go rally his men
#prucan#early prucan#this war turns him into the devil for awhile#he dreamed of marrying gil ever since about the mid 1700s when he was only about 12 and would see gil at lavish parties#his little older man crush. i’m gonna get big and marry him one day!!!#his feelings disappear at the start of the war and don’t really come back until like the 70s#it’s a lot :(#historical hetalia
