Because Franklin's funeral and Crozier's drunken eulogy is so eyes emoji I think it gets lost in the shuffle that it completely replaces any sort of memorial for Gore (his name being literally crossed out! no honors or prayers for him! no burial either but that's on the Tuunbaq) despite the fact that it is one of the most succint summaries of the show's themes, namely, Colonialism Bad and Supplanting of Identity.

Like Sir John, Thee Avatar of Empire, takes the very funeral honors and, in Victorian Society, the only chance Gore's immortal soul has of being at peace, because despite him liking Gore very much he still takes and takes and takes because of the corrosive hierarchy they cling to when it will be their ruin. And there's the very literal taking of his name and ceremony over, in the way individual identities and even personhood are eroded, stolen and warped beyond recognition over the course of the show until they are Gone and even Crozier is quite Dead, figuratively, because only Aglooka remains.

#SCREAMING #this show makes me cuckoo bananas #Dave K what did you put in it Dave K I am in your walls #graham gore #sir john franklin #the terror 2018 #the terror amc #i have a lot of feelings on gore being the sacrificial lamb and portent of oncoming doom #They crossed out his Fucking Name are you kidding me?!

Okay, I'm sick and I need a distraction, so here's a poll, and whoever is winning at the end of the day, I will learn to draw them.

All drawing reference propaganda is allowed btw

Round 2 Part 7 Poll 4

Propaganda

Crozier has alcohol problems but stands up when he's needed; he and everyone he answers for are stranded in the coldest place of the Earth after he's warned the previous captain of the expedition to find the north-west passage; yet he /still/ rises up for the occasion eventually for damage control; he has a noble heart; he commands one of the most beautiful warship of the 19th century; he is a little bit cringefail; his love life is a drama; he opens up to his second in command when all is mostly lost; he tries so hard to save the crew; he fails.

what is a captain tournament without ahab tbh? moby dick (whale) bit his leg off in true dick fashion and ahab ditches all efforts of actually whaling to kill him for it. (well not ALL efforts but like. quite a few.) the pettiest bitch ever. had a new leg made out of whale bone SPECIFICALLY. has a hole in the deck where he just. pivots from. loser. has gay tension with his first mate starbuck also i don't know if that matters

(bear in mind i haven't actually finished the book yet ^^ so this may be slightly inaccurate)

By the way! I have ONE single gripe about The Terror, and that is the fact that when you look at the Tuunbaq in the show, it genuinely feels like they... underestimated the sheer size of a polar bear, especially when they say "It's about three times the size of a polar bear."

My mom, as a child, saw a living polar bear once. In the circus. She was able to essentially stand right in front of it, and she says that they are just so frighteningly large that it's hard to even imagine unless you see one up close. The way she described it to me was, "If that polar bear stood upright in our livingroom, with our eight foot ceilings, he'd still be able to peek his head up into the second story."

The average male polar bear stands at about 9ft tall, 5ft at the shoulder, and can weigh between 700-1,000 lbs.

Here's a picture of one in the circus, and one that had been stuffed, and then the Tuunbaq as we see it in the show.

There are other scenes in which you can see the size compared to that of a human better, but they're a bit... gory. But the Tuunbaq as depicted in the show is kind of just... the size of a decently sized average polar bear, with a slightly bulkier build.

What I'm saying is that realistically... imagine the largest living land carnivore... and triple it. Put two more polar bears on the shoulders on the Tuunbaq, and THEN you can maybe imagine the sheer size. That's what I call "fuckoff huge".

#long post #and YES I realize that it was probably just too difficult to animate a polar bear with a human face THREE TIMES the size of a normal one #nevertheless... we cannot even BEGIN to fathom what the men in the book had to deal with #like there's fan art but again it all seems to underestimate just how fucking massive polar bears are!!!#my mom described the one she saw ONCE to me as a kid and it stuck with me #the terror #terrorposting #amc's the terror #the terror 2018 #tuunbaq

Welcome to Trans Terror Week 2023

We're excited to be back! This year we are running from November 19-25th.

As you may have seen we have a new mod this year! Please welcome @manicpixiedreamjop to the Trans Terror Week team.

The rules are the same a last year, detailed on our FAQ page (for the mobile accessible FAQ go here).

Rules and Reminders:

This event is for anyone who is trans, nonbinary or is currently questioning their gender. Our goal is to uplift trans creators in the Terror fandom and we encourage cis creators to show their support for their trans compatriots.

There is NO restriction on type of content: art, fics, edits, playlists, videos, textiles, everything is welcome!

November 19th is also for Creator Spotlights, make a post highlighting your works and we’ll give you a boost!

Please tag your works #transterrorweek/#transterrorweek2023 and/or ping us @transterrorweek to make sure we see your stuff! This applies to both Tumblr and Twitter.

Fics can also be added to the Ao3 collection. Simply search for “Trans Terror Week” when posting your fic or follow the link on our blog. Our FAQ has instructions for posting anonymously.

Prompts:

This years prompts are character based, both for our gender prompts and our Franklin expedition prompts. Our trans prompts are classic (pre-1930) works of fiction with one or more characters that inspire gender feelings and our Franklin prompts are relics that were found on various searches for the Franklin expedition. As always, the expanded prompt list can be found on our Prompts page.

Day 1: Twelfth Night, William Shakespeare | Fragment of sailcloth (found 1850-51)

Day 2: Little Women, Louisa May Alcott | Meat sample (found 1850)
