While browsing Vogue magazine, Sébastien Mitton found a photograph of Ruby Aldridge from the Céline Fall 2011 fashion show. He said, “Boom! We have the direction!” Her beauty and her unsettling gaze drove the first concept art for Emily.

i totally saw what you meant about the wheel / time running out in the green knight but it's so muddyyyyy why why why. but it's okay.

no yeah exactly muddy is the best word to describe it i think, like you really see where it falls apart if you compare it to say la chimera which is also trying for this unreal atmosphere, and where the meaning is also left murky & ambiguous BUT it never feels muddled or empty because the film ties it so strongly to what is going on with arthur (where he's going plot-wise & then his emotional state) and in fact his disorientation wrt descent into the earth is the Literal Point of the movie... so tgk has a lot of interesting things to say visually, but when you try to connect that to a Meaning? :/

sucks bc green knight was one of those covid-delayed releases i was anticipating sooooooo much, then it came out like a full 6 months later in my country than america so i'd already seen all the gifsets, and then when i finally got to watch it, well. 🙃 guess they really do mean it when they say a24 films feel like they were made by A 24-Year Old.......*

Guys one day I’ll learn to stop sending anonymous asks full of gushing, well-meaning-but-inherently-odd-because-of who-I-am-as-a-person words, because one day I will actually remember that I cannot account for every potential misunderstanding or fact

theo’s eyes are very dark brown, they’re not amber or chestnut or etc, they’re dark dark brown, almost black, when the light hits them you’ll get a liiiittle bit of chocolate there but in general just dark

sort of hate people who leave negative stuff in the bookmarks of a fic tbh. like sure yeah you have no obligation to write anything, but if you are going to write something why the fuck would you make it a bland as list of all the things you disliked about the work

like bro, you could just keep it in your head. say it out loud even. write it on a post it note if you must. but like damn why the fuck would you ever write a laundry of your shitty little peeves somewhere that the author is able to see it. authors can and do browse peoples comments in the bookmarks of their works bc people sometimes leave really touching heartwarming stuff there

just like. jesus fuck. if you have nothing nice to say then youre honestly free to shut the fuck up and move on

What's funny is that given the chance to go to like anime cons, I will GLADLY jump on the opportunity (as long as it's one day), but god forbid a friend spontaneously wants to go catch a movie

And at cons (when I used to go) I'm very extroverted and like a golden retriever I wanna meet and befriend EVERYBODY! but I wont go to family partys or work friends get togethers

you know what i hate? that my main motivation for accepting my big ass nose as it is and not even considering surgery for one single nano second is rebellion and "not doing what society wants me to do". but honestly... i don't like that i need to rebell. i don't wanna do a 'statement' by accepting my nose. i don't want to hear my mum say "look she's so unique and brave for keeping her big nose!" while trying to make feel better about my nose. i don't to be praised for being able to live with my natural body. i want no more comments of any kind. only ignorance and indifference...

Ok I get SUPER off topic in the tags because I usually write tags as a stream of consciousness type of thing (read tags for a more personal kind of rambling about this) but tldr interesting article on autistic women and the manic pixie dream girl trope. idk what's up with the description on the bottom?? I think it's saying that MPDG's are often the romantic cunterpart to sensitive asshole boys since a lot of the trope centers around 'I can fix him', rather than calling us sensitive assholes, which is NOT what the article is about. I just skimmed it but it's definitely interesting.

My sister genuinely, for real, met her girlfriend at a meet up for retyping poetry on vintage typewriters above a feminist bookstore, and I just want to say I’m thrilled the manic pixie dream girls of the world are moving on from whiny mediocre dudes and finding eachother instead.

I don't think it was the author's intention but I couldn't help but laugh, what s take
