Whatever it is you followed me for... you are getting a lot of random other stuff too. Things I like:
monsters -Pacific Rim--Good Omens-- animals (especially hyenas)-stupid horror movies where people are eaten--- personal stuff is mostly about small town politics and organizing Pride events. Logistics and infrastructure, its hella gay!
Caper in the Castro is a legendary video game, not because
legions of die-hard fans continue to play it, but because it was thought
to be lost forever. Now, what is largely considered to be the first
LGBTQ-focused video game (it was released in 1989) is on the Internet Archive for anybody to play.
The game is a noir point-and-click that puts the player in the
(gum)shoes of a private detective named Tracker McDyke who is, in case
you couldn’t guess by the name, a lesbian. McDyke must unravel the
mystery behind the disappearance of Tessy LaFemme, a transgender woman,
in San Francisco’s Castro district, an historically gay neighbourhood.
OOOOOHhh!
The game was released as charityware – freely, with a strong request to give a donation an AIDS Charity of their choice. I’d like to push towards still following that and donating, if you’re able.
(And you might also want to donate to the Internet Archive, who is hosting it now, while you’re at it – they’re in the middle of a donation drive, and could use your support.)

Oh boy.
Do I have a story for you…
So this is the iconic and beloved clock of Moszkva square in Budapest, Hungary. Or more precisely it was.
It was a very popular meeting point for generations.
„2pm on Moszkva, under the clock?” „sure” It was in the middle of the square, so you could see each other pretty easily from anywhere.
When they „renovated” (rebuilt) and renamed the square that is now called Széll Kálmán tér (only by youngsters and tourists who don’t know any better - it will remain for a lot of us „the Moszkva”) the old clock was removed.
So. Removing the clock was very controversial, but it had to go, because someone dreamed about a new shiny one. Here it is. New, and weird and DIGITAL.
The problem is, it stopped working. For days. (you see, fixing it was time-consuming…) And they came and fix it. But it broke down in a couple of days again and again, so the lovely people around helped to fix it. Some of the best solutions:
Graffity: ?Is this a clock? No"and Where is the old clock? Furthermore, on the clock it states that it shows the right time.
An artistic rendition:
But my favorite one is where people got enough of the breaking down abomination, and the heartless people taking down the actually working clocks (it is a very busy square with a lot of public transport connections), and things escalated quickly:
I think this is the most of them we had taped on at once.
The papers state: In memoriam of the unknown time. Rest in Peace
the eighth doctor modeling for every painting and sculpture imaginable, plus constantly running around in his shirtsleeves in the EDAs:
the war doctor onwards:
eleven goes to church naked because he has to, so i’ll let that one pass, but he’s on thin fucking ice. also someone get me that comic frame of eight wanting to die naked, STAT
You mean the single greatest comic panel of all time?
‘I Demand To Die Naked’ was my chat name for a while on my Universities Doctor Who Society group chat; until it got one too many awkward questions from people who didn’t get the reference…
Actor Javier Botet suffers from Marfan Syndrome which has given him extremely long and fine fingers along with a tall, thin build. Due to his unique physique, he was cast as Mama in Mama (2013), Medioros in Rec (2007-2012), numerous characters in Crimson Peak (2015), The Crooked Man in Conjuring (2016), Slenderman (2018), and many many other great characters in movies we love.
He is also going to play The Toe Monster in Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019).
Botet is an amazing performer who has done a phenomenal job bringing some horrifying monsters to life.
Кроули в стиле паропанк. Мне пришлось здорово потрудиться над деталями и шрифтом. В работе над деталями мне очень помогли кисти с эффектом металла, благодаря которым я смогла нарисовать механические детали, без которых стиль паропанк или стимпанк немыслим. Я сейчас работаю над двумя фантиками в стиле стимпанк и поэтому изучаю это художественное направление довольно подробно. На арте Кроули полумеханический наг. Его хвост автоматизированный. Ручки - автоматоны тоже являются частью образа и управляются персонажем. Кроули одет довольно ярко, но мне хотелось передать сам дух образа, не только мастера- механика, но и художника, инженера и поэта. Арт является иллюстрацией к фантику под названием «Я подарю тебе крылья». Я участвую в подготовке осеннего ЗИН в стиле паропанк и готовлю серию рисунков и историй. У меня 58 опубликованных фанфиков по вселенной Оменсов, это довольно много за два года. Но сериал и книга до сих пор будоражат моё воображение и стимулируют творить.
