So this squancy edit has been 97% done for like 7 months… I finally took the 10 minutes to finish it…

Really glad to see the surge of Squirrel Girl art but also sad that the context you know her in means a lot of yall don't even know about her best friend (and heavily implied romantic partner) Nancy Whitehead

She's a computer science major alongside Doreen, figured out her secret identity (as well as that of Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi) basically as soon as she met them all, and she can knit and loves cats and has explicitly said that despite disliking people generally she loves and trusts Doreen with her life. Girl was willing to face down a super villain who was stealing all of central park to tell him to stop trying to force Doreen to date him. She can run ASCII code in her head. She's even the producer on the radio show they do. They grew old together due to a time stoppage and were willing to forget their love and life together so they could do it all again. She rules

And America, too, is a delusion, the grandest one of all. The white race believes — believes with all its heart — that it is their right to take the land. To kill Indians. Make war. Enslave their brothers. This nation shouldn't exist, if there is any justice in the world, for its foundations are murder, theft, and cruelty. Yet here we are.

Oh, you know, just thinking about them:

And them:

And them:

And them:

And them:

Even them (just finished rereading all of ACD canon using the new annotated version):

Revisiting my love of these Victorian boyfriends/husbands/domestic partners/soulmates has helped me so much through these past few months 💖

Continuing on (slowly) to discover the other Holmes/Watson duos I haven't properly watched/listened to yet...

Shout-out to the surgeon who, partway through marking me up for top surgery, looked at what he'd drawn, said "hmm, no, I'm being greedy" and had to restart. Did Not have to phrase it like that

Pain could be killed. Sadness could not, but the drugs did shut its mouth for a time.

This curious beige and brown tartan waistcoat is quite a mystery. The first, worn by Michael Fassbender as Edward Rochester in the 2011 adaptation of Jane Eyre, is double-breasted. The second, which is worn differently and has pockets that the first does not, was worn by Fionn Whitehead as Branwell Brontë in the 2022 Emily, working as a post-literal Brontë figure alongside Fassbender’s literal Brontë character.

The fabric for the waistcoats is exactly the same, but the alignment of the stripes, is somewhat different, with one placed at an angle. The stripes evoke a double set of bars, possibly underlining how both characters, in their own unique ways feel trapped by their circumstances. 

The fabric on the back of the waistcoats appears different as well, but this could be due to lighting. Both pieces were designed by Michael O’Connor, which is further evidence of the possibility of them being at the very least from the same production. 

So what do you think? Were they both made for Jane Eyre and is one a duplicate that varies slightly? A piece that was unused? Or is this simply a case of O’Connor having the same material lying around and utilizing it for a waistcoat twice?
