#i also find performance in the show so interesting#the ppl sometimes misinterpret is what exactly performance is rather than seeing it as this range of xyz elements that go into it that may#still have a connection to your self they see it as this black and white framing to perform is not necessarily to lie but to lie is not#necessarily to perform#like we see louis' perform over and over and over and over again in different decades in different areas of his life and part of his story#is this lack of identity itself#hes so interesting bc of the layered up part of him like you see these layers (of self and performance--which can intertwine) and you come#closer and closer to it to find something even newer yeah so#its so obvious#w/ him how he cant tell that direct lie like...in past-in modern same-same and if he happens to tell a good lie best believe he believe it#to so its not technically a lie it is his own truth your own truth does not have to be factual but the sentiments still stands ala what JA#said soo i find it interesting performing together but the performance is not a lie but an exaggeration or a replication of the love itself#i still stand by my initial sentiment when theyre away a mile apart but together they are in each other and in each other (performance-love-#falling back into it etc etc etc) i find it interesting where A stands in this#because i learn more abt him sooo i was like with him with his statement 'never harmed you' not direct i believe not direct still if we're#going by this is your truth type thing and maybe convincing himself that this is his truth then it's yeah my interpretation is still in 'the#twins' type of look into them so the mirror mirror but the awareness is different (?) IDK guys i saw their lovestory its cute then they hit#u with the underlying horrors and boy do i love getting into it i just need to learn moree 77 years so much so much time vampires is cool#random thoughts#V#i cant wait to write my video essay give me the whole show noww if i messed up on this disregard or whatever armand says#talking myself through stuff i need to rewatch the episode in full

a pop star and his plush 🕸⚡️💛
(oh the irony of a giant joltik plush)
#submas#subway boss emmet#subway boss kudari#joltik#submas au#popstar au#my art#i don't think in this au he's necessarily a pokemon trainer#though maybe he does have his own for protection#or something like that#either way this plush i wanna say was a gift from ingo as a celebration for a band related milestone#like a certain number of albums sold oooor#getting through the first live performance#anyway he wears pink often and comfy clothes and the scrunchy fuzzy socks

Never forget that According to Canon, this guy is technically the extrovert of his siblings
#ghost bc#the band ghost#papa emeritus ii#think about it: Primo thinks people suck#Terzo *might* be more of an ambivert but ultimately he’s reclusive#and Copia seems to like spending his off days playing video games and likely studied tons just to get those Employee of the Month awards#loving to perform isn’t necessarily indicative of pulling energy from being around others or being away from others#meaning that even though Secondo was apparently not as comfortable performing#the fact he sought out parties and connecting with people on his own time suggests he is actually possibly an extrovert#why is the guy with the nastiest stare the one who seeks people most?!?#Secondo: 💀u wanna go to Mellow Mushroom? I want to try a dirty bong water

my controversial tdv opinion is that mark seibert's krolock is good, actually. like i get why we clown on mark. i do. i do. but his krolock is actually. he's a bitch. he's a clown. he has the STRONGEST dad energy. he will PERFECTLY play the part of the lovestruck hero for sarah if that's what she wants and then will go and hiss at a bunch of vampires like they're misbehaving kittens.
other krolocks might have more consistent performances, but BECAUSE he switches it up so often it gives his krolock the feeling of being a fucking chameleon. he will lure you in by pretending to be so earnest and sincere and a little bit goofy and then he'll rip your throat out. and then he'll turn and go back to being a little goofy with his son.
#sophie.txt#tanz der vampire#graf von krolock#mark seibert#like. his performance as krolock is actually Fascinating to me#and tbh he's probably Up There in my ranking of krolocks#it's just so. it's so Different from other interpretations in a way i find fascinating#and it doesn't even necessarily go Against who krolock is either#it doesn't feel at odds with the text#it's just another interpretation. and i think ppl dislike it bcs he doesn't lean into the menace as much#but in a way that makes those moments where he IS a bit more menacing all the more striking. bcs he chooses his moments carefully!!#and he doesn't ever do it while mugging or being insincere as an actor. which i feel. another popular krolock. does.

My first instinct was to get pissed at him on my Zoro’ss behalf, but after some thought I’m more worried that we’re genuinely starting to fucking lose Sanji. Cause this tone and phrasing is so strangely personal? Maybe he’s trying to motivate him, but to me this feels a little more in line with the comments he was making to Jinbe earlier that feel a bit like they might be caused by the mutation…? And I understand Jinbe being worried that Zoro is taking so long with Lucci, but for Sanji to react like this is so odd, since a constant in their rivalry is mutual trust. Why the hell is he sounding like on of his own fans on powerscaling twitter.
#…Zoro gets called a burden twice in one fight that’s gotta be building toward something#Specially since so far the only person to consistently scrutinize Zoro’s strength and performance in the crew is himself#He’s the first and typically only to criticize himself for struggling#or taking too long with certain opponents#(though Lucci here is a weird case in that#I don’t it doesn’t actually feel like he was necessarily overwhelmed? The way he’s been against other opponents#There’s barely a scratch on him#And he followed through on ending the fight quick once his patience ran out. It’s odd?)#Now those fears of being a burden are being externalized. Feels intentional#Specially with the death pact still looming over us and the finale growing ever closer#one piece#op spoilers#op 1110#black leg sanji#roronoa zoro

Max knows Charles is leagues above Carlos. The moment he saw a Ferrari show up in the P3 spot and realized it was Carlos, it wasn't a "oh, I guess Carlos did a good job" nope it was "well if Carlos is here, something bad must have happened to Charles, there's no way there's a Ferrari up here and it's not him??"
Like if he's asking "what happened to Charles?" in the cooldown room, that implies that he thinks something happened to Charles, and Charles wasn't just slower than Carlos, because to Max that is just clearly impossible.
It’s a pretty well-documented fact that the only drivers that Max rates as on his level on the current grid are Lewis and Charles, so I think he’s pretty shocked when either Carlos or George turn up to the cooldown room instead because in his head either something went wrong with the car or something went wrong in the team.
I will say as well for an extra (non-Lestappen) layer of context that could have Max picking a side in the Charlos civil war—Carlos WAS Max’s first F1 teammate (Versainz holding hands on a track walk you will always be famous) so I’m sure that Max is intimately aware of both Carlos’s talents relative to his own (and therefore, Charles’s) and also the ruthlessness of the Carlos camp (it’s an open secret that vibes were rancid at 2015 Torro Rosso). Max has more of a bone to pick with Carlos than the rest of the lecfosi, so it’s little surprise that he’s engaged in psychological warfare with the Sainz camp as soon as he could this season.
#should be noted that max also has a soft spot for nando and lando#but he doesn’t think fernando can perform miracles with the Aston and he only really rated lando as able to win a race#not necessarily a championship#max verstappen#asks#anon

Watched Poor Things last night. If Mary Shelley's Frankenstein had been an oral tradition passed along among women and the Grimm Brothers collected and reinterpreted it, it would be Poor Things.
#that's not necessarily a compliment#made trite by the male gaze#poor things#I also wasn't that impressed by any of the performances#everyone was good in the same way everyone was good in saltburn#indie style of edge does not make a performance any more worthy#imo#everybody is good enough for a nod but not the win#except ruffalo....his accent is iffy at times he's overhyped even for the nod

tomgreg is not "i could fix him" nor "i could make him worse" but "i could make him feel like a real person." from both ends.
#tomgreg#there is genuine incompleteness on either end without each other#i'm thinking nrpi and the mutual obsession and being (successfully) singularly inclined toward monetary success#EXCEPT in regards to each other#greg having only the most naive aspirations until he meets tom#tom having an essentially directionless desire to be a caretaker until he meets greg#i'm thinking of that one rebvilla tg art with the caption#'doderick fell from the fantasy doggy land and became a real boy in the arms of a guy named tom'#i'm thinking of how the last time greg smokes weed onscreen has him throw it away when tom shows up#how he first does coke. an upper. onscreen directly as tom shows up#tom wakes him up and guides him#greg gives him someone to guide#they're both sponges that soak each other up bc they were sorely missing something#the ethics of their behavior are besides the point#the point is that they cease to be performative about it. tom gets less conservative greg gets less liberal#bc both were masks that weren't necessarily real#'don't be an asshole greg you don't have PRINCIPLES' <- tom accurately calling greg out for being fake#i'm thinking we don't change minds. maybe we do change minds.#once again whether it's in the direction of being 'good' or 'bad' could not be FURTHER from the point#bc the human condition does not condern those things. LOVE does not concern those things.#they just push each other in the direction of being complete people. of being fucking real#mine

me, dean, and everyone else watching: ok sure, sammy
#vics spn rewatch#spn 1x10#the apology is made worse by j*red's inability to actually sound sincere#he's doing his fake sympathy voice and it is so. grating#adds a fascinating unintentional layer to sam as we've talked abt before#and it's like not necessarily a Bad thing to perform rather than feel sympathy#but like. this is very much a non-apology and dean knows it and we all know it#sam DID mean those things on some level. maybe not as harshly as he said them bc his anger WAS being heightened by the ghost#but those feelings were real#and sam is allowed to feel them. but they are in many ways. a projection and also unfounded#sam literally could leave at any time and dean would let him go (as we'll see in thee very next episode!!)#just bc he feels those feelings doesn't mean they're inherently true#dean isn't keeping him trapped. dean isn't just blindly following orders. dean Does have a mind of his own#and in fact dean isn't being all that great of a dutiful son bc he actively is not all that interested in finding john!! not the way sam is#and you'd think for dean being the one to initially show up and ask sam's help that he'd be more invested in finding john#and making sure he's actually alive instead of following random coordinates to a case. and taking on every other case they find too#anyways. sam's feelings of anger are real bc he feels them and it's okay to feel things#but he's massively misinterpreting and projecting things onto dean#and then he feels guilty (like post-possession) and tries to swipe it all under the rug and claim he didn't mean any of it#but he Does. and dean knows it. everyone knows it.#his perceptions do not align w/ what's really happening. bc he doesn't have the full context.#bc he doesn't know just how complicated dean's relationship to john really is. bc he was sheltered from a lot of that.#he sees dean desperate for approval and a good little soldier#when in reality dean was playing peacekeeper and mediator and punching bag most of their childhood.#and rn dean doesn't really care that much abt finding john. he just wants to hang out with his brother#not samcr*t btw. we love all this abt him it's spicy it's crunchy it's tasty

i genuinely enjoy the amount of respect and love and care the circle has for cosmo. i can't possibly know if it will ever backfire given the circumstances they are in but that's not even what's so important right now. what will happen is what will happen but the beginning, the starting point that is actually a starting point only for us. for them? it's one of many that dotted the path of their relationship, their connection to cosmo.
i suppose it is so nice to see because there is an image of an old, obnoxious, know-it-all figures in media that are presented from the perspective — having knowledge is a grant of respect. but cosmo, at least from what we hear others speak of him, is not that. he is an old man that his grandson relative? father? wants to protect because that's how it should be and not the other way around. he is an old friend to madam glask, and he is the closest and hence the dearest, which means she will step over her fear and lost trust of elsie and follow their mission through. he is an associate, a roommate that elsie trusts to keep her safe and keep others safe from her. he is a professor that has earned his respect from rajan.
and he sees them as his children, he cares for them as he would care for his own and yet, not in a belittling way. they are like children to him but they are not children. they are grown and established in life adults that achieved their status in society and that cosmo respects, while caring for them like he would for his children. and it's almost as if they care and love him the same way in response. his human being does not consists only of work and his studies and they can love him like children would love their elderly parent. and they do.
and surely, we don't know what had happened in cosmo's past 'till it'd be revealed or what will happen in the future 'till it will happen next episode. but i just enjoy how likable cosmo is while being a knowledgeable and important part of the candela and the circle. i like how it's easy for the circle to like him and stick with him even when the circle bends.
and you know, that is the epitome of an actual respect, to have such an influence on people.
#may watches candela obscura#circle: tide and bone#ep 1#i really just wanted to talk about how nice it is to have an old person that did not have conflicts right from the start#i must admit i did worry about the possible parent issues conflict between sam and liam#but the reveal of oscar wanting to care and protect cosmo because that's what he believes should have always been their reality#was heartbreaking#it's such a simple thing to like about the whole plot and the performance#but i do#i do like that cosmo is not necessarily arrogant and full of himself#he is feisty and full of determination and he is not ready to sit in confines of his shop safe from the dangers of the field#but he is not an asshole he is just a grandpa#and that's fucking beautiful#thank you#cosmo grimm#oscar grimm#rajan savarimuthu#dr elsie roberts#madam glask#candela obscura#the circle of tide and bone#aabria iyengar#liam o'brien#sam riegel#ashly burch#gina darling#noshir dalal#critical role

i read the phrase “i access my femininity through my masculinity” once (in the context of butchness) and it’s stuck w me ever since. now that i feel like i’ve grown into myself as a butch i find myself able to enjoy more stereotypically “feminine” things that i tended to reject when i was younger and still figuring myself out. things like makeup, jewelry, nail polish, colourful clothes, cutesy aesthetics, heels…they no longer feel stifling to me. my relationship to them has changed because i no longer feel like i’m obligated to perform femininity. rather, i can pick and choose which parts of it enjoy, and simply leave the rest behind. and i’m secure enough in my identity as a masculine person to know that enjoying these things doesn’t detract from my masculinity—in fact, i can use them to construct and further my own masculinity in a way that feels genuine to who i am.
#genuinely my favourite kind of femininity is like. femininity performed by men#like when i wear jewelry or nail polish or heels or whatever its not to look like a woman. its to look like a Feminine Man#altho if im being honest. a lot of my fashion inspirations arent even necessarily feminine men#they’re just men who wear those kinds of things and are still very clearly masc#THAT’S what im striving for#beautiful black men in fun daring clothes i want to be u so bad.#anyways. dunno why i was thinking abt this today. just felt like sharing sum thots#dick punches

#it would be really funny#esp if its not necessarily a heather au but an au where theyre all theater kids and actually perform it#the magnus archives#tma#mike crew#oliver banks#terminal velocity#jane prentiss#jude perry#julia montauk#heathers#simon fairchild#maxwell rayner
