Linda Thompson on how it felt to kiss Elvis Presley 💋
MARSHMALLOWS, FRESH BREATH & NEUTROGENA SOAP
"Elvis leaned in and kissed me, and the fullness, tenderness, and sweetness of his absolutely perfect lips were like kissing marshmallows. Seriously, if you want to know what it was like to kiss Elvis, get the biggest, puffiest marshmallows you can find and press a few of them against your lips, because his lips really were that sweet and soft. He was the most mesmerizing kisser, so very sensual and intense."
Excerpt "A Little Thing Called Life: On Loving Elvis Presley, Bruce Jenner And Songs In Between" by Linda Thompson.
Very known story by now, however, during Elvis Week 2023, Linda added a little something interesting to give the fans the full picture:
"He always had good breath. Really! I don't know how he did it. He always, always had a good breath."
Author's note: We know El was very careful with his dental health, loved to maintain a pretty smile and chewed mint gum like crazy. Not hard to imagine he had a good breath, but always good to hear from a reliable source. ;)
Besides being a good kisser, having the softest lips (and a fresh breath), Linda also shared, "Elvis always used the original Neutrogena soap, so he always had that essence of the clean, fresh smell of Neutrogena soap." FULL INTERVIEW ON YOUTUBE: "Linda Thompson Shares Memories Of Elvis Presley At Elvis Week 2023" [Credits outlawfilms]
#you know how I always think about a song to relate to what I feel right?#whenever I think about elvis' kisses I think about the jimmie rodgers song “Kisses Sweeter Than Wine” released in 1957#that '68 comeback special fan on the 2rd GIF is so relatable!#i act like her just seeing elvis in my notebook -- that's why i'm sure i would faint if i ever saw him in person#and if he kissed me... oh boy... once upon a time there was a little me and that's the stupid way i died#elvis presley#elvis history#linda thompson#elvis#70s elvis#elvis the king

I first heard of cherry-plums from @elodieunderglass, as part of an ongoing jam competition saga (I'm rooting for you)! I second heard of them when my coworker pointed them out on a walk to the bus stop. So, naturally, I picked some. I...probably should have massed them, but I went by volume instead; it was about three cups worth.
Per the excellent advice given to me, I pitted the fruits by squeezing them, then simmered them for a bit until they were soft. Then I added sugar. About two and a half cups. Which...may have been too much. Because I definitely got syrup out of it (which was my goal!). But...it tastes like liquefied grape jelly. Or grenadine. Somewhere between the two. Beautiful color, but gotta try again when more of the bush ripens.
#cherry-plum syrup#grape soda is a thing so this is fine#better if I liked grape soda#I think it just has a very faint fruit flavor but is also very sweet rather than actually tasting like grape jelly#added a little lemon to the soda and now it tastes like european lemonade

lmao imagine if familiar au them accidentally spark a weird craze for dating/marrying humans amongst demons?? like, bill pulled it off *too* well. suddenly every demon thinks human flings are the shit. having a human date at your side is the new fashion trend. people find themselves making deals not in exchange for their souls, but being a date to the next big fancy event. then everyone comes to their senses and it just becomes that one phase everyone simultaneously agrees never to speak of again. CRAZY
#answers#Turns out that dating a human/demon is not for the faint of heart#For either of the participants#Bill thinks the fad is hilarious because of course he does#It's very chaotic#Dipper just has to shake his head at how foolish other humans can be#Though I imagine if one of those humans came up to him and was like. Oh god my date is turning inside out and just devoured half his sister#He'd be like yeah they do that sometimes#He's spent so much time around Bill and his ilk that none of this shit surprises him anymore#This is very unhelpful if you're hoping to get advice#There's also a lot of attempting to convince people that no. No you can't 'fix him' holy shit#Like yes Dipper's doing well but he knew better than to try and 'fix' the guy. You wanna date a demon then this is what you get

okaayyyy first on the list of designnsssss,,, rayman !! yeah incredible , ik ik just. stay with me here
a brief rundown of it is taking that whole "guardian of this world" concept, and being an embodiment of dreams, bravery and light.. then making it into a silly forest spirit,,
some inspos are sky children of the light, over the garden wall, adventure time, and zelda . again , weird mix , i knowwww . but!!!
i would need an entire doc to list all the things i've written on him thus far but i'd love asks/questions (and perhaps suggestions!)
im gonna be real here... most of the changes have to be the fact he has a cape and, messy hair, with flowers/leaves caught in it (ever heard of a brush???)
#rayman#rayman legends#rayman origins#rayman fanart#my wips#traditional art#okay bits of small trivia below!#he has little butterflies that follow him around sometimes; similar to that one scene in steven universe#represent his thoughts and ambitions in a way#halo is optional too i just thought. hey! that ring on his sweater has some sort of mystical significance#so i thought it'd be nice if there was. of course. a small ring of light donned over his head#weird looking angel if you ask me.... ahahaha#he can also shapeshift as he's made of the stuff of dreams; can be a bird. manta ray. any sort of animal to his heart's desire#although he'd look a biiitt different than the rest; sorta stand out. be it from a faint glow. lums or markings#can't believe this is sthe same guy that sang sexbomb and had no arms no legs huge features#then again i consider this like a separate universe/canon from the acc games it's. how do i put this#more of if it went in the direction of fantastical or fantasy elements

The cape wrapping was too much for me I have to leave
#silver sending stones#cr spoilers#cr 3 e 108#orym of the air ashari#dorian storm#he probably watched the loom and was like “this is what i signed up for. forever.”#dorym#i do not know how to feel#because this came at the end of such a harsh moment from orym?#he killed fearnes dad which will eat him alive for the rest of his life#he just yelled at everyone because theyre still not understanding that the gods leaving is not going to leave exandria as it was.#he is literally so spent.#hes so tired#and so guilty#(oh i have to update my list of things orym blames hinself for)#and as hes yelling. as hes pleading with his friends to see the calamity that will happen if the gods are gone.#he floats over to dorian.#arguably his biggest opposition#and when hes done. when hes tired himself out. he leans on dorian.#he leans on dorian probably with no expectations of reciprocation. he just. needs dorian in that moment.#and dorian. who has been fighting to get rid of the gods since they took opal and killed hia brother. who wants them gone more than anything#wraps orym in his cloak. a protective wing around him. a warm. same place for him to lean. to rest. even running his hands through his hair.#they have been fighting since dorian came back. theyve been on the opposite sides of each discussion. each argument. and yet#orym still finds comfort in dorian. and dorians still affectionate towards orym.#id like to believe they slept in the same bed that night. after weeks of... finding reasons not to.#theyre clean and newly dry and slightly cold and maybe Orym finds a bed and curls up alone because fearne isnt there. but she hasnt been#for a while. and he doesnt take up the whole bed. he cant. but he doesnt expect someone to join him.#and then when the lights are off and the crickets are chirping and the faint screaming of a new bush to lull him to sleep. his door opens.#he doesnt get up because he knows hes safe in the manor. despite how scary it is. hes fearnes friend and has a deal with nana.#so he doesnt move. he feels cool. soft skin on his back and arms wrapping around him. to protect him. to comfort him

AEROSTATIC PILOT JACKET +1 Volta do Mar: A feather on the wind
#disco elysium#kim kitsuragi#volta do mar#disco elysium fanart#the thought is fainter. volta is less than harry's skills; they're more a faint song in the back of his head#she doesn't offer many suggestions or options for dialogue. they're just there to comfort and ground him in meditation when needed#whistling on the swingset :)#anyway this is mostly just kim. love this guy#voliart

old stuff too. got too emotional about lotus after the end of new war
#i remember that this was more like an attempt to bring a faint (it wasn't shaped properly in my head) idea to life#rather than a complete™ piece#but i still like it tho.#my choice was natah btw. felt like this way she will way more honest with tenno. no mimicking no pretending just her old original self#and tenno who (i'd like to assume) became more independent after this change#<- (my opinion on this based solely on the changed lotus' dialog lines. no real evidence sorry)#warframe#artists on tumblr#sd draws

It always makes me crack how Kyouka carrying Atsushi's sensless body just launches herself for several meters straight into the sea, and Kunikida somehow manages to catch them exactly on the fly. How are they still alive
#Wouldn't it have made way more sense to jump into the sea and then board the ship?#Don't get me wrong not that one would survive from that either: Atsushi is fainted and Kyouka being only 14–#wouldn't manage to keep him afloat in time to lift him on the motorboat#(not to mention the dangers swimming next to a motorboat involves)#That said. It still feels more realistic than jumping ten meters to land on a flat surface–#and Kunikida somehow managing to catch them exactly on the 1x1m space on the back of the motorboat.#You'd have to train A LIFE to succeed in that.#kyōka izumi#atsushi nakajima#doppo kunikida#bsd#bungou stray dogs#bsd s1#bsdrewatch2023#Sorry. This is all ultimately silly.#I've just been thinking this ever since the first time watching the anime it's so ridiculously funny to my eyes ajhvcfaghfvajhsvcf

#genuinely i didnt do this on purpose i was just very tired when i went to draw yesterday and did pose practice instead of new comic#but then i see franz kafka trending this morning and i remembered this hellsite has the most arbitrary holidays i love it#dr draws#danganronpa#dr#ndrv3#drv3#kokichi ouma#ouma kokichi#kokichi oma#oma kokichi#glittersart#TAPP AU#if you want it doesnt have to be#but i am working on an ask about how everyone is holding up post-sim#mostly in writing if thats alright bc im not positive yet how to draw out the story i want to tell#and therein is a small headcanon that kokichi kinda. for several reasons has a bit more intense a time than most of his classmates#and sometimes he Needs to sleep at arbitrary times during the school day. if he wont do it voluntarily he'll just kinda faint-#- which is especially frustrating for him because the lack of control and his inherent distrust of most people fuel his paranoia-#- and over time he designates a couple of Probably Secure places around campus that he can sleep if his dorm is too far.#ive started setting it up (itll take a lot of drawing to explain it all) but one of them is the animal shed#i do want to try actively to write about Students Who Aren't Kokichi but this all did start bc im kinda fixated atm#actually i think kokichi has been in all of the comics so far. like at least appeared#which will probably continue to be true as kokichis brand of pranking#('i put a kick-me sign on kaitos back and when saihara sees it theyll have an excuse to talk. all according to plan.')-caliber#is a nice device to crash characters into eachother like bumper cars

bradley & carole moodboard for suffering purposes
#people downplay how much they meant to each other and how losing her would have impacted him just as much as losing his father#like. she raised him. she was his whole world growing up. and the implication he lost her as a teenager right before everything Else :(#also the implication it was a drawn out process#and she didnt even get to see him graduate high school oh i feel faint#theres so much more to his grief than falling out with maverick. and it is not stuff he is going to ‘get over’ with a hug. anyways#i need to finish this stupid ficlet but writing from carole’s pov is making my heart hurt#bradley rooster bradshaw#carole bradshaw

congratulations to Mme. Pascale Leclerc, who has surely just experienced both the funniest and most unhinged weekend a mother could ever have. Dear fucking christ, I hope your middlest son brought you a bottle of champagne for yourself, ma'am.
#kazoo noises#charles leclerc#cl16#monaco gp 2024#zoomies posting#sports posting#like man. where to begin. one of your racecar children is back in town for the weekend. he has yet to have a truly good work#weekend it seems in town. now this year. we're feeling ourselves a bit. we're feeling optimistic even. and then ur son becomes talk of town#because he keeps doing fucking bits on twitter about adopting his coworker who is friends with your youngest son. this goes on long enough#for actual reporters to comment on it. no one is willing to blink first so by friday night we've yes-anded ourselves to a grandson#(congratulations mme leclerc)#things go well. and then at qualifying they go DAMN WELL#BETTER THAN EVER REALLY! but man. im superstitious. i dont trust shit until its over and the dust has cleared#(the adoption jokes have continued by the way) and MEANWHILE everyone is eyeing that starting grid. were humming. we're making vague hand#gestures when commenting. we're all thinking. Maybe? (the streets can hear u tho. keep it down)#race starts. lap one CHAOS. so many fucking crashes. i'd faint if i had a child even in karting honestly.#(every parent in this sport deserves a prescription for laudanum)#but he's not in it. hes at the front. and he. well. he just Stays There. Through It All. and the laps tick down. until the race is run. and#there he is. your middlest son. cross the line and into the books. first place. home town. what curse indeed. thats your boy!!!!!!!! THERE!#they play the radio of him winning and the audio is peaked because he screams out so loudly. you can hear the water in the laughter.#later theres gonna be videos and photos taken of him pushing his boss into the harbor and diving right in after the man. those photos are#gonna be fucking studied in photography classes one day. and STILL! everyone involved with that goofy joke about him adopting his coworker#(who. despite all the silliness of the race stayed second place and got a podium) is still carrying the bit like a baton relay. Do you have#him over for family dinner? might as well add a plate i guess! people are joking about your youngest son having two nephews? a dog born#maybe a month ago and a man born about... what twenty three years and about a month ago? fuck it! family dinner#sorry this bit got away from me but as someone who loves my homecity and my mom so much it might actually be like.#a visible growth inside my body if they do an autopsy on me at time of death or like. my love will eat me alive. sometimes the charratives#gets to me#anyway cheers mme leclerc i hope you party so fucking hard this week

The second you ask who Alabaster is, one of his extremely sparse fans (me included) materializes next to you with an essay on why you should read Son of Magic. You cannot escape us
#idk I just think it’s funny how people (very reasonably) wonder who he is and we appear like ‘I have been summoned ☝️’#if I ever faint just ask something about Alabaster and I’ll wake up in an instant#I respond to ‘Alabaster’ better than to my own name 💀#alabaster torrington#alabaster c torrington#son of magic#pjo#riordanverse

Forgive me if I'm a bit nervous about Gorgug this season. It's just that the last Zac Oyama pc was Colin Provolone, who was arguably one of his greatest D20 performances, if not the greatest.
Zac always does great with every pc he plays, but Colin was something else. He came out swinging with actions and words that were teeming with unspoken emotional baggage. The way Colin's presence affected the other pcs; there was this level of depth that I don't think I've seen in any of his other characters. It was understated and quiet in that signature "just a guy" way that he tends to be, while still captivating everyone instantly with just how raw it was.
Not to say we haven't seen emotional depth in Gorgug. It's just that, compared to the other Bad Kids, Gorgug's journey and progression as a character has been very... impersonal? Like, yes, he found his birth parents, and he found friends who appreciate him, and he faced his insecurities about his intelligence, and he navigated relationship troubles, and his trial through the claustrophobic bug-tunnels was a horrifically-uncanny parallel to how he's spent his entire life trying to make himself as small as possible.
But how much of that has actually changed him from the Gorgug we started with? I would agree that he's definitely happier with his life, given all the loving and supportive people that have been added to it when it used to be just him and his parents. And he's certainly grown into himself and become more self-assured in his abilities, even if he's still, and always will be, our anxious little guy. And there's nothing wrong with that. I've always liked how Gorgug was a representation of all the little things. The subtle acts and kindnesses that don't seem like much to most, but to some are everything.
We don't need another Bad Kid living in fear that their mouth could be shit-in at any moment. We've already got one-too-many.
All that being said, I just feel like Gorgug's personal story beats are much easier to sweep under the rug than everyone else's. He has the same soft and understated quality that Colin held, but they lack that extra oomph that pushed Colin over the edge from being just another guy in a series of dudes, to a character that the vast majority of us could not get out of our heads. He took someone who was anxious and softspoken, who ultimately never wanted to be violent— someone who is remarkably similar to Gorgug in many ways— and maintained that demeanor and core in Colin's character while still hitting us in the feels with character development at max velocity at every turn.
I think Zac gets better and better at this with every season that goes by. With each new character, there is always something that leaves me stunned in awe. And it's been, what, three? Four years since we last saw Gorgug?
I'm just,,, I'm cautiously optimistic but also going into a bit of a worry about what violence this man may inflict upon us
#i got SO carried away LMAO#i dont think ive ever written any posts about gorgug specifically#i made a lot about colin. and some about pib. and some more about zacs performances in general.#but never anything gorgug-focused. i just wasnt on tumblr at those other times that hed been on my mind like this#you can tell i still couldnt resist talking about colin lol#he was just so fucking good. a fantastic character all around. i cant imagine a better example to get my point across than him#when i do posts like this its all very much just me taking a vague idea and working with whatever comes out in the moment#so when i tell you i very much did not plan to get lost in the counterargument and had to stop for a second to remember what my point was#my point still stands but so does everything else#you dont realize it. how similar gorgug and colin really are. or how metaphorical the bug tunnel was.#or how gorgug IS the epitome of little details. small acts. quiet rights and wrongs. the faint causes and the even subtler effects.#u dont truly realize it until youre writing it yourself in a free flow fugue state and it all comes to a halt cuz youve blown your own mind#anyway i love gorgug and i love zac pcs and i hope this post makes sense cuz finding the right words was fucking hard hah#dimension 20#d20#fantasy high#fantasy high junior year#fhjy#fantasy high sophomore year#fhsy#gorgug thistlespring#the ravening war#trw#colin provolone#zac oyama
