Is this loss
Dang
Am in Montreal lol but no car and Villeray is a while off
Conclave (2024) Tumblr fan community sweating bullets rn
As part of El's ongoing project, she needed to cover Gaiman. By the time she reached him, we see him in a different light. This is long, detailed, and shines its own light on the writer and the work. If you like criticism and can bear to read on the topic, this feels both essential and definitive.
Hey if it worked for Canadian Tire
The wife and mistress are two completely distinct types of Insta white mom
Every time I read about a past writer’s impoverished family bkgnd (eg Brontës) I realize they were born too early and would have killed it on Instagram Reels
But Luigi Mangione scans so well in Here’s To You
Yup. Missed my juvenile skill acquisition window for 2D/3D platforming and now can’t play a CDPR RPG without falling off a wall and dying in tutorial. This is why I bought my 5 year old Astrobot
I had read Susan Cooper and a great deal of older English children’s lit at that point; went from The Hobbit straight into LoTR which took the summer and was conscious of a great levelling up. After that I read Shakespeare in folio order, then War and Peace which took all the following summer
The Irish half of the Franco-Irish couple we spent Xmases with asked how old I was turning and upon receiving the answer “9” said, ominously, “it’s time”
Thus received a copy of The Hobbit somewhat in the manner of a pre-pubertal induction into the Moon Mysteries
Turns out @dieworkwear.bsky.social is now posting here and Liziqi is back on YouTube so my media diet is complete again
Fun Q&A too, at one point he mentioned having to redress the set by changing all the colour gels over the halogens and I realized (despite having experienced the 90s) I *had* been thinking of the Cube as LED walls and not getting why the characters were increasingly overheated
Went to the Fantasia Film Fest screening of Cube (4K restoration) and was able to say a few nice things to Vincenzo Natali at the merch table - a thoroughly nice man whose work I’ve followed for a decade now
Oh Electra. All my condolences. We on the internet were lucky and honoured to share in a little slice of your love for him.
Someone at the network wants to waste someone else’s money and god go with them
If the distinction between games and sport is that sport has regulatory bodies and club levels then surely Pokémon counts
Paris Olympics going hard on venues and it’s fighting game core tbh. Like putting the playing field under the Eiffel Tower or on a barge down the Seine gives King of Iron Fist Tournament. Wall breaking the Grand Palais
Always figured she based him on David Talbot-Rice, the posh English historian whose books sat beside hers in public libraries en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_T...
Slippy don’t just give away the pitches
Don’t let anyone spoiler you for the opening and ending songs for the rest of the seasons
This is it, no one is ever forced to listen to music they don’t like anymore, new or old
It’s been 2 days since the #IWTVs2 finale and I’m still haunted by Louis’s jacket in the last scene lol, sorry to be This Way but I *know* I’ve seen it before. Is it Yohji? Aimé Leon Doré? WhERE
Never mind Anne, I don’t think anyone in the last 40 years of FANDOM has put more thought into some aspects of these characters
(Loumand, specifically)
TVL/QotD are definitely the funnest ones IMO lol
Actually I keep meaning to track down all of these very specific sonic memes, bc there are some I also only know in the YouTube context
“I Believe I Can Fly” is another btw
Anyway this is good new info! It was unclear before this whether Lestat had *had* a band or would now be starting one in the 2025 streaming attention ecosystem, not that he’s likely to have trouble with that
He was adopted by the postpunk protogoth band that squatted the dilapidated building he was sleeping under. He told them he was the Vampire Lestat and they had all read IWTV so for the rest of the narrative they just thought their new lead singer was committed to the bit
