Proud Cumbercollective member, supporting Benedict and Sophie. Originator of the phrase 'glorious crooked mouth.' Also, Matthew Goode, A Discovery of Witches, Tom Hiddleston, Jamie Dornan, Eddie Redmayne, Dan Stevens, and others might appear at any time. I hate lying liars who lie, so NO SEPTICS (Sophie, Amelia, Meghan haters fuck off).

“I’d want something quieter – more intimate. I’d want everyone to see the thought dripping into his eyes; an embodiment of it that’s more personal''
“I’d also want to get the relationship with Ophelia right. Was he in love with her? Is it a fling? Is he so lost in his thoughts that he idealises the relationship until the moment it becomes real?”
Benedict recently chatted to King Alfred School Sixth Formers about Hamlet and was asked very interesting question about the play and talked about how he'd approach it if he were to revisit it now.

Cumberbatch fan checking in. No, wait, let me check in as a Duran Duran fan. I still remember back in '85, I think, Nick Rhodes got married and some young women came into the bookstore where I worked, saw ONE photo of his wedding in People magazine and proceeded to have a very loud, very dramatic conversation about how ugly his wife was (she was a well known model), how he looked unhappy, (smiling, in one photo), and how John Taylor was better looking anyway, because he wasn't married I guess. Male celebrities are allowed to be single, or in a secret, tortured relationship with a costar that they share on screen chemistry with because their female fans forget that acting is a thing (Sam H, Jamie D) or secretly gay dating a costar/band mate, and that's it. It's amazing how the storylines just repeat across fandoms.
People really do put you on a pedestal just so they can knock you off.//
Some people are only fans of an actor as long as he maintains the illusion of availability. As long as he's the internet boyfriend and they can maintain the fantasy that one day they'll meet him and he'll fall madly in love and whisk them away to live the rich life, the guy is the best thing since sliced bread.
Apparently the worst thing he can do is get serious with someone. Chris Evans made the 'mistake' of marrying Alba Baptista, effectively closing the door in the faces of the people who hoped to snag him, or those who crazily hoped he would at least be single and available forever.
Internet boyfriend no more. Apparently his marriage is a personal rejection of each one of them on an individual level. Teeth have been gnashed, garments have been torn asunder.
Now, he's suddenly 'wooden', 'plays the same character over and over', is 'lazy', 'money grabbing' and 'will never win an award'. Is a 'loser who can only do shitty movies'.
Some particularly feral individuals refuse to even believe he's married at all, and have decided he's a lying liar who lies. You'd be forgiven for wondering if you're taking crazy pills.
Real fans see this shit for what it is, and we're able to wade through the nonsense. We see the poseurs and the foxes who've decided the grapes are sour.
To all of them, I say...eh. You all will eventually move your fantasies on to the next available guy, and will pin your hopes on him until he too has the audacity to fall loudly in love and then he too will suddenly become a piece of shit (see also Stan, Sebastian who had the unmitigated gall to tell his longtime, live-in, pet coparent girlfriend that he loved her during one of the happiest moments of his life. Apparently he personally slapped each one of his fans in the face onstage that night, as he's supposed to know he's only allowed to talk about his mama).
It's no loss to the fandom, because they were never true fans, they were just thirsty.

Reminder for when he “saves” it. He was the one who wanted this, and now he gets to be the hero and win favour with young constituents. Don’t give him the credit for fixing his own problem.

That's a wrap on Mare at Palm Springs International Film Festival

I don't even know how to describe the last few days. My agency's office was somehow damaged in the Sunset fire, and we're waiting on a structural engineer to approve a walkthrough to retrieve any computers or personal belongings that remain. It's too weird to use our work channels to ask about anything other than the well-being of our coworkers and clients so...I have been "free styling" if you will. I'm hoping everyone will understand if the coverage doesn't hit like it should. Press is busy and also who the fuck cares.
I got back to my apartment at like 2 am last night, cried with my roomie a bit. (Something about me is I'm a crier.)
Something else about me is I drive a truck so I will be volunteering with Fleet of Angels to haul and board horses displaced by the fire to my old stables in Norco. If you are in SoCal and have any large companion animal supplies (hay, bedding, fencing, feed) OR know of a need hit me up and I can help arrange transport. 🐴

The Critics Choice awards were delayed from January 12 to January 26th.
Do you think any award shows will be delayed?
Because of the fires? I think the scope of the damage and recovery effort remains to be seen and everyone is in wait-and-see mode. Most people in the industry who haven't lost a home are still working.
The fires could continue or get worse. But hopefully they don't, and how to televise ceremonies in the wake of a catastrophe is a challenge for the award show producers more than the attendees. Honestly I think they have an opportunity to break self-aggrandizing habits and focus on celebrating a far wider community that has helped sustain Hollywood for so long. 🌞

Hello Tumblr friends, from Southern California.
I am fine, I’m on the far right of this map, out of danger of the current fires, close enough to see their smoke plumes across the basin and I should probably wear a mask if I go out because the smoke is just hanging over us all now. There is dirt and fine ash that will need to be swept up, probably tomorrow. We have another wind event predicted for Monday and Tuesday, but probably not as fierce as the one on Tuesday. Oh, this screenshot is a day old, the acreage is out of date now.
Tumblr media
This is one photo of one area of Pacific Palisades. This does not look like a war zone or any other thing you might compare it to, it looks exactly like a fast moving wildfire fed by 80 - 100 mile an hour winds ripping through vegetation that hasn’t seen a drop of rain since April, or maybe it was March, and it grew thick in ‘22 and ‘23 when we did get rain. I have lived somewhere in California, north or south, since I was four. We always get wildfires in October, until the rain comes in December or January, but they have been made exponentially worse because of climate change. Do not listen to tin hats and tangerine guy cultists who will try to blame everything and everyone under the sun, they don’t live here, they don’t know what we deal with. This is climate change. Repeat ad nauseam.
You may have heard about the celebrities that have lost their homes, but I promise you they are probably only 1% of the population that is suffering. The majority of the homes lost in Pacific Palisades and Altadena belonged to middle class families and the elderly who bought them decades ago. They were passed down to adult children instead of being sold, they were kept in families who could not afford to enter the market at current prices. Many small business owners have also lost their livelihoods, restaurants, salons, shops, etc, and they may not be able to relocate or rebuild. The early estimate is more than 5000 structures have been lost, that includes schools, churches, grocery stores, private museums, and other types of places that help build communities and connect people.
If you are someone who thinks “ha ha LA deserves it” for some reason, first, fuck you, and second, if you really believe that, then stop consuming our products, including Disney, Netflix, and network TV, anything filmed here, any game developed here, anything written here, anything financed here, anything grown here, etc, etc.
So far, I am personally adjacent to a few people that I know have lost their homes: the man who designed and handmade a few pieces of jewelry that I own including the teapot and tea cup necklace you may have seen me wear if we’ve ever met in person, and the woman whose workouts I used to subscribe to years ago. I’ve met Mandy Moore a few times in the past, I’m quite fond of her, and like many, I followed along as she remodeled her home before moving in to it. She’ll be fine, her home is mostly intact, but I feel for her husband losing his studio and the instruments he had collected throughout his life.
Before you reply to this post, please look around your home and imagine it gone, except for a backpack that you were able to fill before you ran out. Imagine your neighborhood gone, your community gone, your friends and neighbors scattered all over the region seeking out shelter and assistance. Please spare a thought for those who have lost everything in Los Angeles, North Carolina, Florida, etc, because we are all in this together and it isn’t a natural disaster competition. I know there are places all over the world suffering, this is all I have the capacity for right now. I am bracing for more to come next week.
Thank you for making it this far. Please reblog or reply with compassion. Take your BS elsewhere. Thank you.
Edit to add: special thanks to Canada and Mexico, two sovereign nations, for sending firefighters and Super scooper planes.

Block this person on all of your accounts. Besides being a vile Sophie hater, she steal gifs and other content from large BC accounts, she buys followers, she has multiple sock puppet accounts and she plays nice with AA and LL on their IG accounts while she rips them on Tumblr and Twitter.

Ben looks mighty fine to me. He's in great shape, as anyone can see from the picture in the spa. But he's still married to Sophie, so he has to look ill.
As for his lips, they sure as fuck don't seem blue to me. Pale pink, yes. Blue? Not even close. It's amazing what the sight of the magic ring still does to these morons. Even after 10 years.
