POND POLITICS: watch this duck get snubbed by all the ducks on the shore. Nature can be brutal, y’all

[tableintheteacherslounge]

If you’re wondering how I’m doing the answer is: not well 🙃

I only let myself believe it could happen this week when she was in virtually all the prediction lists

It’d be one thing if it was just fans were wanting it but to get hopes up like that ❤️‍🩹 ow

I’m so stressed about law getting an emmy nom it’s silly

But she deserves it so much

And with what Melissa means to her, with how she’s an homage to her mother, that recognition would be even more special 🥲

Wait so who is watching and can you tell me what the deal is with where Phil is sitting? Someone seemed to imply he’s not even seated near the rest of them!!?? Wtf?

So there's Bepo, his Sulong form and his small form from Film Red. Law's absolutely lucky to have such an adorable boyfriend who comes in multiple sizes.

SO TRUEEEEEEEEE

Some sort of Pen & Colin’s

I appreciate love. The intense kind, the soft kind and a definite favored kind.. the unexpected.

But through the many seasons that I have witnessed varying levels and vigor—

I have come to treasure the love that is there.

The very kind of love that seeped in one’s veins.

It is slumbering for one, quite melancholic for the other.

He had a particular fondness of her.

He recognised some of himself in her. She recognised some of herself in him.

She felt it first oh so joyfully! Her heart leapt when she gave it a name. Love.

She is, and possibly forever will be, in love with him.

Her heart won every time she felt him near, her head swayed in his direction.

She felt the butterflies’ never-ending flapping in her insides.

It is beautiful, it is precious, it was her first love.

She laughed melodically with his own.

If one was keen one would see that no doubt they are in love.

He knew that there may be a tune in harmony with her within him.

It was sadly smothered and pushed aside for another.

Only… to be ignited by a jilt. A constant turning into an occasionally and then sometimes and then a blatant snubbery.

All took place for all to be well.

All went well with mutual reprieve and yes there’s still love.

Waiting to be acknowledged.

It was a nod. He gave it a name. Love.

It roused and all the yearning suddenly satiated.

It is beautiful, it is precious, she was his first love.

You see, a love that is always there—well nurtured by ease of togetherness is often shelved in disregard.

But to me, it is in some way kind of romantic to think that two people can find themselves in each other.

Alike in many at the same time differing.

When did I start needing you so much?

another interesting moment of characterisation for ‘Big’ Jack Horner

do you guys notice how Jack handles everything roughly, and with an inappropriate amount of aggression? using a rock-embedded Excalibur like a golf club, stuffing a live phoenix into his magic nanny bag without any worries of harming the creature...this is a man who is very destructive with the things he owns, no matter how valuable or important they are.  ...except for one thing.

do you find it interesting that Jack handles the Alice in Wonderland size snacks with such care? so do i. besides being a bit of a wink-nudge to the audience that these items will come back later, we get the sense that these items are dangerous somehow - perhaps that they might explode if handled poorly, or have some other ill effect. however, many of us know this isn’t the case, as the snacks need to be eaten to have their effect. so what gives? well; i think Jack handles these items with such care because they specifically make him bigger.  think about it. there’s no way that these magical snacks are more valuable, or more magically potent, than, say, the magic staff Jack uses in the climactic battle of the movie. but Jack cracks the glass of the magic staff to get at it...yet he doesn’t crack the glass of the snack box. instead, he lifts them out delicately while humming a song.  i am absolutely convinced that Jack places value on these items and keeps them as a last resort because they increase his physical size and strength. we know that Jack’s preoccupation with largeness comes from his childhood fury at being a ‘pathetic, buttered baker’s boy’; he associates ‘Little’ Jack Horner with weakness. i think Jack values these items above all his countless ‘magical icons, bobbles and gee-gaws’ because the latter only give him power in a metaphorical sense, but the snacks give him literal, visible, tangible power in the form of largeness and strength. honestly, even though i’m still of the opinion that Jack’s character is allegorical, i would kill to see what that poor boy was up to between being a child and a young adult. it really does seem like at that moment of snubbery with Pinnochio, he decided he was never going to be ‘little’ again. Jack’s abnormally large stature doesn’t appear to be a family trait - his parents are pretty normal-sized - so i wonder. do you think Jack used magic to make himself so large? or was it purely a matter of bulking out with food and exercise? i’d love to know your thoughts 👀

Im still too stunned over the audacity of having to relive that whiplash I need to rewatch Falsettos {or at least listen to the album} because its too late to watch that and not cry :') to cleanse whatever that SNUBBERY WAS OVER SWEENEY TODD

[the-bjd-community-confess]

Ok where are all of these people shit talking resins0ul/doll leaves/more reasonably priced dolls? I'm newer-ish to the hobby (~4yrs) and I've seen nothing but praise for these brands regardless of what social media platform I'm on. Anyone got receipts of recent snubbery or is this a "people being bitter about shit that happened 10+ years ago" kind of thing?

How to hide a genius

As a society, we paint the most malformed picture we can grumble about. We tangle our thoughts in knots of despair so tight we can’t move from one group to the next without dire consequences. Once you move, there’s no going back, especially if you’ve moved “down.” Shunning is done with silent delight. Open, honest, scorn and snubbery are alive and well. Snobbery is disguised professionalism.…

Letters to the Editor #6, The Littlest Planet That Could

In the vast cosmos of astronomical debates, one celestial body stands resilient against the scientific snubbery it endures and that planet is Pluto. I stand with those that would recognize the little dwarf planet as a member of our planetary family. I’m here to declare, with unwavering conviction, that Pluto is indeed a planet, and I’ll gladly set up camp on that distant, icy hill, and then die…

'Despite getting no love from the Oscars this awards season, All of Us Strangers was undoubtedly one of the best movies of the year.

The romance-drama-fantasy film, written and directed by Weekend and Looking powerhouse Andrew Haigh, stars Andrew Scott as a lonely writer named Adam living in London who strikes up a flirtation with his beautiful neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal) on the same night he starts seeing the ghosts of his parents in his childhood home.

Soon, Adam and Harry are in a relationship, growing closer every day, as Adam meets with the ghosts of his parents, who are the same age they were when they died in a car crash 30 years earlier.

The dreamy film also stars Jamie Bell as Adam’s father and Claire Foy as Adam’s mother. It was released in theaters in the US on December 22, 2023, and now, will finally be available to stream for the first time!

All of Us Strangers is officially coming to Hulu on February 22, so get your tissue boxes ready! The film will also be available to purchase from digital retailers including Prime Video, Apple TV, and Vudu/Fandango.

Despite the Oscars snubbery, All of Us Strangers led all nominated films at the 15th annual Dorian Awards (presented by GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ+ Entertainement Critics), with nine nominations, including Film of the Year, LGBTQ+ Film of the Year, Director, Screenplay, and acting noms for Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, and Claire Foy.'

Hotel

Cum stains everywhere

Flaking from the wall

Bubbling from the bath

Stalactites standing tall

Guests cast eyes down

Won't meet my eye

Scared of recognition

Of transitional passerby's

I don't know what I'm doing here

Really out of place

Never dealt in depositing

I'm closeted. I'm chaste

Keep looking to my neighbours

Trying to catch a glance

Of parents ditching kids at home

Young ones after the dance

Unlikely pairs in love affairs

All desperate for affection

Social spheres of yonder years

Steering clear of reception

When I checked out in the morning

I was still on my own

Of all the people that I had seen

I was the only one alone

Who am I to look at you

When you can look back at me

But snubbery begets snobbery

And you got better things to see

Look into your lovers eyes

Let go of all that's arbitrary

I came here for my mission

Ye all came in missionary
