psa to non-Australians just now discovering Ryan Corr. pretty much all his credits are Australian™️ because he's a very established award-winning actor here so if you wanna support this man, watch good stories, and hear how Australians actually sound - i recommend Bloom and/or Hungry Ghosts if you like supernatural stuff, The Commons and/or Cleverman if you like Scifi, Underbelly (2010 series) if you like true crime stuff, packed to the rafters is also nice if you like family sitcoms, and if you like gay cinema, Ryan Corr was in one of Australia's most important and acclaimed queer films Holding The Man (2015). also if you wanna see him as a teen with frosted tips and spikey hair, you should watch the iconic cult Aussie SciFi series Silversun. yeah anyways, Ryan Corr is a great Australian actor who is one of the few white actors here who publicly supports our First Nations peoples, marching in abolish Australia day rallies and calling out productions he's involved with that don't hire any Indigenous crew. he's not just some hot guy that just sprung into existence for House of the Dragon and he's absolutely worthy of more support!

Ahhhh, nothing quite like introducing an American to the Northern Territory’s “C U in the N T” tourism marketing campaign and watching their face engage in a slapdash performance of every emotion known to man in the span of about three seconds
This is a sample for those not familiar:

WHEN you get polls, you need to do the democratic thing and make the other Australians vote on which zooper dooper flavour is superior - I want to know who to blame for fairy floss remaining so popular (also I'm a small blog and have not the reach for such a scientifically important survey)
Plz reblog because: science!

I was unprepared for how devastated I feel by the outcome of the referendum. I suspected it would go this way but it doesn’t soften the blow.
Why is our country so scared of giving First Nations peoples a seat at the table?

I'll never forget I learned that Monte Carlo biscuits were an Australian thing and not globally available delicious treats because I published a chapter of a Sherlock Holmes fanfic where Irene Adler ate one and multiple commenters were like, "I had to look up 'Monte Carlos' and now I wish I hadn't because we don't have them in the UK 😔"...writing tip! always check if the food you're writing is regionally accurate, friends!
