Man who falls in love with a sphynx and solves her riddles daily, in spite of the threat to his life. The boon he requests every night is to sleep by her side in the warm sand and wake up safe. As he grows old, then forgetful, she reconfigures her riddles to accept any answer.

Separately, as I'm sure you want my opinion on this: Yue's wig in Netfilx's adaption is a hard top, synthetic blend, like a more expensive version of the kind of hat-like wigs made for Disney Theme Park Princesses. M. Night Shyamalan's Yue is in a full human hair HD lacefront.

I love meeting very old people and asking them inane questions about the past. It helps to know when stuff was invented. I asked my great grandma how it like was before traffic lights were common. She slowly turned to look at me, paused for a full 5 seconds and then said “bad.”

Even if they broke down and admitted they cheated, at the core of that decision is a desperate fear of failure. There is always the option to do nothing and get a D, but they were moved to act, even if it was to pretend and be dishonest. I’m too tender to teach, i think.

Asking them about historical events has its own place and is a thing you should do too. But this is mostly about asking them about casual stuff. For example, my grandma told me that modern bras are WAY more uncomfortable than the ones from the 1950s. Guess what kind I wear now.

Interestingly though, the beautiful Casey Camp-Horinek who played Gran Gran IS wearing a lacefront. But it is under customized and the lace isn't HD. The knots were large, unbleached and visible on camera, and the hairline wasn't plucked or thinned along the sides.

Allow me to introduce you to one of the spookiest books I ever read as a child. I still think about it roughly once a year. At the time I was super into slasher stories, but this chilled me more.

Elon Musk's brain chip company Neuralink has implanted its first device in a live human being. Musk says his brain chip will allow humans to communicate without talking, listen to music simply by thinking of a song title, and treat mental health issues. →…

It very much is giving me the vibe that the cosmetic budget was shoestring and they're innovating instead of using film/tv standard product. Almost no one in the cast is wearing a wig, which is a smart choice bc its better to have no wigs than only being able to afford bad ones.

@minareadss Even he seemed like "what is going on???" the whole time. This is the face of a man who can't quite understand how the hell this is happening to him, specifically.

The rise in misogyny podcast bros and sugar baby millionare-hunter podcast girls is later going to be academically discussed as an early harbinger of impending severe economic downturn. Because at their core, both are trying to solve the same problem: Not having enough resource.

@ibrake4ants It sounds like the professor did exactly what I described wanting to do—which is all the best anyone can ask for in this situation.

@eventualforever The third one is, I say with deep seriousness, one of the top ten best films about time travel of all time. Such a bonkers feat accomplished by few: 1st movie (perfect) 2nd movie (soulless sloppy cash grab) 3rd movie (perfect, can even be watched directly after 1st movie)

I'm only a few episodes in but the only full wigs I've seen so far are Yue's, Ozai's and Iroh's and I'm not going to say a single word against them because of what I assume was going on in the backend. I will say that Iroh's looks the best though.

It hurt so much it left me breathless. But it was the strangeness of it that left a greater impression. I imagine the wrongness of the touch is similar to someone touching a bone. It’s like your soul screams “what are you doing in there.”

@soiendure It’s the only way they know how to process it, unfortunately. The cycle of this specific type of violence tastes like centuries.

And whoever was in charge of people who wore some kind of hairpiece, made the banger of a choice to do well placed human hair extensions (azula's bangs) Gran gran's wig is an off the rack lace front with commercial consumer quality lace (not HD film)and unbleached knots (?!)

They then had a scene where she got to haughtily address her boss (the editor who still worked at the publisher) and claim she wanted public credit for the idea, not money. Then she wound up getting no credit AND no 30k bc she pissed off Mike Ross and that man shoots to kill 🤪

oh I forgot: The woman who did this had never written a book before and the author they gave the contract to had written several books. A few were in the mainstream bookstore where this woman currently worked. At the end Mike Ross said "Maybe you should try actually writing.😬"

I need people to stop saying weird shit about Amber Midthunder over this thread. This is about WIGS and labor concerns. Amber is an exceptional actress, of breathtaking talent. She didn’t do her best to out-act this accessory and script to be spoken of in this way.

Zendaya is so funny. She’s so fucking hot but no matter what you can always see the clownery in her eyes. The jester’s spirit for mischief tucked in the corner of her grin.

In the same way i would like to be giggling in the dark of the trojan horse, I also wish I was standing with the other disciples (aged 20-28) roughly 1 nano second after judas kissed jesus in front of cops I bet someone made a very funny noise, I bet someone said "what the fuck"

They even have another guy who shares the same hobby as this guy, but is very normal about it so you have contrast and context. It’s like Dwarf: I’m monster chef. I eat monsters 🤷🏽 This guy: I’m a 😏 monster chef. I eat 🥵 monsters 😏😳😏🤫 But they are doing the same thing.

It was such an amazing sensation that my pain scale changed to accommodate it. I cried, but I didn’t flinch and I was silent. The surgeon called me a good strong girl and wiped my tears himself, and I do not think I would have been able to get through it without that.
