#Area Man Briefly Considers Confessing Deep and Profound Love For Best Friend In Order to Win Argument (via @taxicabsandcupcakes)
@wildehacked did you know John Lee Miller was in an Austen film?
DID I KNOW
JONNY LEE MILLER
WAS IN AN AUSTEN FILM
First of all, this is a miniseries, and second of all, I have seen this miniseries ten or twelve times, because it is the BEST Jane Austen miniseries!
It’s tied with the Emma Thompson Sense & Sensibility as my Favorite Jane Austen adaptation, probably???
It’s on Amazon Prime, and I HIGHLY recommend it–Romola Garai slays as an Emma you can both easily fall in love with AND easily reconcile that with her snobbery and her occasional cruelty–like, this is a true-to-the-material Emma who you can SEE came to us by way of Clueless–and Jonny Lee Miller is amazing as Knightley. There are some Knightleys out there who are kind of moralizing, because a lot of the time Knightley is RIGHT and Emma is WRONG, and the viewer knows it even if Emma doesn’t, and there’s this like, weird pedagogical bent to the romance? yeah, that’s not the vibe here. The vibe here is BANTER. You can see that Knightley and Emma really enjoy arguing with each other, even when they both get so passionately worked up about the argument that they’re legitimately mad about it, and it does a lot to keep them on the same level, to me–JLM’s Knightley gets red-faced and irritated just when Romola Garai’s Emma is spluttering and frustrated, and if it weren’t for the fact that there are other people around, they’d easily fall into the kinds of shouting matches that end with somebody pressed up against a wall being soundly kissed. Like, LOOK AT THE GIFSET–they spend the whole miniseries arguing with each other, and therein lieth the romance of it all.
Anyway I love JLM and I love Romola Garai and I love this miniseries and everyone should watch it instantly, thank u for your time
Knit/crochet a temperature scarf/blanket. Or a sky scarf/blanket. Everyday as you make that days section, put a little bit of energy into it. At the end of the year you will have a scarf/blanket with a lot of stored energy in it that you can draw upon for magic.
(This would also probably be good for weather magic.)
I don’t often say that much in the open, but I hope Tumblr can sort out their shit this time. I don’t know where else to go at present. We complain a lot about this place around here, but sticking it to users and making their experience hell is now an internet-wide issue (don’t get me started on Facebook and Etsy). Looking at not only myself but most of my creative, artist friends trying to maintain a vital online presence, it is a serious concern to see how many platforms are crumbling around their users no matter how dedicated or law-abiding they are.
I’m not flouncing out of here (unless I get outright kicked out). I’ve created accounts with so many art/networking sites in this lifetime and they inevitably end up being the same issues served up by different chefs. But just in case something happens here and you want to keep up with the art, I’m lunaria_gold on Instagram (until they start swatting users willy-nilly there too)
Villains in Addams Family movies go to really unnecessary lengths to defraud them of the family fortune. These people just give it away on whims all the time. If I just walked into the house and started wearing their clothes and spending their money, they wold start introducing me as Cousin Intruder and forget there was ever a time I didn’t live with them.
Gomez in particular would enjoy your boldness, Cousin Intruder.
Oh shit.
The Addams family loves and greets every person entering one of their homes.
The Addams family adopted or married every person wishing to stay.
This is why the Addams family is full of freaks.
Of course.
So what we’re saying is, tracing the Addams’ geneology is damn near impossible and it’s just as likely that no living member of the family is actually a blood relative of the people who originally held the family name?
What I’m hearing is that Batman is actually an Addams.
I love the clothes from Volante Design (“Superhuman Streetwear”); their latest is the “Starfleet 2364” line of men’s and women’s jackets inspired by Star Trek: The Next Generation uniforms.
The jackets are made of heavy denim and are basically extremely well-styled/tailored biker jackets (like Volante’s excellent Hacker
jackets), partially or fully unzipping them and folding down their
lapels takes them from “cosplay” to “cosplay adjacent” in an instant.
They’ve got loads of interior and exterior pockets, and are
double-stitched and come in “Command Red, Operations Gold, or Sciences
Blue,” sized 37 – 51, 55 (men), and 33 – 45 (women). They’re made in
Chicago, retail for $315, and will ship by December 14th.
