Les Miserables needs big budget television adaptation specifically so that the fifth season can wander off into a three-part documentary about the history of the Paris sewer system right in the middle of the the story’s climactic confrontation. This and this alone would justify its existence.
Don’t forget one on the battle of waterloo and one on the practices of nuns.
Absolutely. Just multi-episode educational documentaries about various aspects of French history and culture interrupting the plot entirely at random – it’s what fidelity to the source material demands!
I know your mostly joking, but I’d be legitimately into this.
My priest: Translating the Sermon to Spanish made me think of how some Greek words take four or five English words to get their full meaning. When Bible translators look at that, they have to paraphrase, which imposes bias. Then fundamentalists take those words literally. Can you imagine how many people that has hurt?
Me, an openly gay man:
THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING FOR YEARS AND PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO HEAR IT.
My latest piece: Our Blessed Rebel Queen, Carrie Fisher
done in watercolour and ink.
Carrie Fisher has always been a great inspiration to me. As someone who suffers from depression and anxiety, I wanted to create a piece to bring me and comfort and strength. To look upon Space Mom and say “yes, I can face today.”
Saints of the starship and angels that take their true form as nebulae, great and fiery amorphous beings that speak the will of the Universe
Nymphs of asteroid fields and planetary rings, sylphs that fly in the tails of comets and solar wind, the gods of the galactic core
Demons that dwell in black holes and eat the hearts of dying stars, spirits of galactic battles that cause engines and shields to fail when you get too close to their graves
Ghost ships, long MIA, drifting in dark space, an inaccessible monument to those lost
Demigods, Herculean beings forged in solar fire surviving alone and unshielded in the vacuum, on an icy rock so far from a star as to never see its light
Heroes and saints ascending to their gods by dissolving into starlight and void
i feel like people have forgotten what “NSFW” actually stands for after all these years
it stands for “not safe for work,” as in “material that could get you fired if your boss sees you looking at it at your place of employment”
tagging things as “nsfw” is not something to be politicized, it is a courtesy to your fellow humans so that they do not get fired or socially ostracized for someone’s whole dick being out on their computer
you know that feeling when you’re on your period and you take a shower and you feel so clean and relieved and nice but then as soon as you turn the water off it’s a race against you, gravity and time
I swear the last line made it feel like the plotline of an action film
just moving along like everyone else
