I bought two Ruth Rendell novels from a charity shop. I’ve just finished one and loved it very much.
Don’t you love it when you discover an author you’ve never read before?

'La cérémonie' – Claude Chabrol's crisp psychological thriller on Criterion Channel
The critical reputation of Claude Chabrol, one of the founding brothers of the nouvelle vague and the director whose adoration of Alfred Hitchcock led to a career specializing in thrillers and psychological dramas, has risen and fallen through the decades.
La cérémonie (France, 1995), his adaptation of Ruth Rendell’s A Judgement in Stone, revived both his critical reputation and his commercial…

Still on my Masterposting bullshit
These fuckers are 100% shaped by the fucked-upedness of a place directly ruled by and so close to Judgements. They need hardcore therapy. Their therapy needs therapy.
#Also Stones was directly kept as a “possession” of a Judgement so that did NOT help its own fucked-upedness#Also also outside of the HW I doubt being trapped and left to starve for a long period of time helped even if they DID 100% deserve it

u know at the beginning i kind of thought kfp4 was gonna do something with shifus whole. deal. but they didnt like at all which is a shame
#the plot was extreeeemely thin and formulaic as it stands imo#kind of held together by the strength of the action sequences which i liked#but idk it just felt weird that po said an objectively correct thing (why isnt shifu the spiritual leader hes clearly better at it#) and i kind of expected that shifu would have something to do where he learns not to be so. idk#i guess faith in his own judgement rather than like. just kind of Accepting His Destiny or whatever. they make gags about how#hes clearly kind of upset about this whole thing#especially with tai lung having a speaking role its just like. well i wish shifu was here so you guys could talk this out#given how the idea of destiny kind of shapes their worldviews#i think what i wouldve done is a destiny is not so set in stone thing#bring shifu on the quest but when po has his vision he sees zhen betray him and decides to trust her anyways while shifu advises against it#because The Universe Said So and po is like what if..the universe is wrong. or what if we can change its mind :D she seems like a good kid#maybe she just needs some good influences :D and shifu is like -'_- thats fucking stupid po <- thinking abt his shitty son#and maybeeee they could even have tai lung be more involved in the latter half because his dad is here. and they can talk#idk i dont know if this is anything i just kind of wish the movie was giving More

sir terence...
#I think a lot abt the guy rebuking the emperor and god on earth and declaring for 'guy forbidden to lead by doctrine'...#ok mr middle ranked noble. literally who do you think you are. 'I know better than tradition faith and empire.' WOW OK#kinda character where someone could spit 'know your place' at him and he'd be like: I do ❤️#STONE COLDDDD#lil bit of characterization I keep in the back pocket#it's just. dion's so righteous. he has to have fallen for someone w similar values/worldview/passions#he lit started a Holy Order with terence. seriously.#“Our people” says Dion.#basically I think *he thinks* he belongs at dion's side unquestionably#frankly I think he sits there sometimes w his judgement after dealing with one of his so called 'betters' and winces at himself like#ah#you know#I must be the most arrogant man alive.#swinging for the fences with these 8 mins but I see the nyx in you buddy. I see the riku. the sansa.#like I'm def tucking him under my arm and running wild but I think the textual arguments can be made and also. my city now.

#forgot to tag this and accidentally hit post instead of draft#anyway this based of a preg dream i had about a monster preg game show and the main guy in my dream got knocked up w living statue twins#and his belly was always so heavy and low that in the finale everyone was sent into labor during the end of an obstacle course and he won b#bc he was already used to the babies being so low on his hips already that he had an advantage on his fellow laboring contestants#i didnt draw this in the context of that game show but the concept was still interesting enough to me to draw#this guy wasnt in a game show but he did find what he thought was a nude Grecian statue in the forest and despite his better judgement h#he fucked himself senseless on it and then didnt find out til he was pregononte that apparently it was a magical being of stone#and theyre sentient and capable of communicating but insanely slow moving so theyre often mistaken for just regular statues#he gets help from a special foundation that focuses on living statues specifically because holy shit is that how these being are born???#who knows???#mpreg#nbpreg#preg art#mpreg art#monsterpreg#monster preg

Really didn't think an arc that had such heavy themes of religion and belief would make me cry in a not past trauma sort of way. But here we are.
#skypia#the backstory episodes got me a bit misty eyed#wyper finally finding out about crickett was where it really started though#and 193 got full on tears#okay but if conis' dad was able to survive#how weak were those bolts eneru was using for his devine judgement?#also#eneru you absolute dork you#moon boy could've just gone to the moon and called it good in the forst place#you brought that beating on yourself#one piece#enel#conis#noland the liar#watching one piece stoned oops

people are so fucking annoying when it comes to drugs and alcohol. oh you’ve never drank or smoked? why? does your family have a history of addiction? none of your fucking business. oh you have drank or smoked? why? for fun? mental problems? again. none of your business. why do you care
#i can’t stand people#i hate being asked if i’ve drank or smoked because no matter what answer i give there’s judgement#if i say i haven’t then i’m a stuck up self-righteous bitch who doesn’t know how to have fun#i get the ‘‘why not? what’s wrong with you?’’ question like drugs and alcohol are a stepping stone to adulthood or some shit#and if i say i have always ‘how much? how often? is it an addiction? are you a useless lazy junkie who doesn’t care about anything?’’ like#there’s no right answer here

#I'm not gonna be doing all that crab-posting and stuff --#not in literally any judgement of crab-posting it's just not an emotion I personally experience.#But what I WILL say is that. regardless of what I want or how I feel about him. he was Jewish. We share(d) that kinship.#That's doesn't reflect or affect any moral judgement -- being Jewish is not a moral achievement#sharing kinship with me doesn't have an inherent ethical dimension.#but it's relevant. It's why I'm saying anything in particular here.#Because -- because of that -- the thought popped into my head#and I don't think it's something anyone else would say so I'M saying it:#I hope someone puts a kidney stone onto his grave.#Bury him quick and good riddance.#(... I hope that wasn't too oblique a joke. Also he's only seventy-something but I hope Bibi falls and breaks his neck. Share the vibes.)

Dadtaro: I just realized that High Priestess would be so useful for subtly helping Jolene during her stint in prison. And by subtle, I mean every non-stand user in the prison thinks that the place is haunted/more haunted than before.
Gjdbgjdbfdjf y e a h -
Honestly a lot of the Stardust Villains Turned Found Family would be super helpful, for example:
Yellow Temperance and Khnum but shapeshifting with people instead of objects
Dark Blue Moon and Geb would thrive in the ocean and swamp surrounding the prison
The Emperor is literally a gun that can’t be seen or stolen, will never run out of ammo, and has the ability to control bullets
Death 13 would be perfect for gather information, secret meetings when Jolyne is unable to communicate with everyone else, and interrogations
Judgement and possibly Tenor Sax would be great at misdirection and trickery
Jolyne is going to have an almost literal army backing her up on top of them giving her help with learning how to use and control her own Stand and fight other Users
And this isn’t even adding in Stand Users from the other two parts!
