who tf do ketu men frequently date? 🧍🏼

so i decided to check the charts of ex/current partners of some selected well known ketu men.

See, Timothee Chalamat having dated Rahu and Jupiter girls kinda validates my theory of Ketu men going for these planetary archetypes. I also see Moon and Mercury nakshatra women.

He dated Shatabhisha ASC, Vishakha Moon Lourdes Leon. Was with Eiza Gonzalez who has Shravana Sun & a possible Purva Bhadrapada Moon. His iconic pairing with Lily Rose Depp who's Rohini Sun & Swati Moon and Vishakha ASC. And finally Kylie Jenner -- Ashlesha Sun, Swati Moon.

Avan Jogia, who is Ashwini Moon, is dating Punarvasu Moon Halsey -- and she also has Hasta Sun AND Swati ASC. He's also dated Zoey Deutch who is a Vishakha Sun. He dated Swati Sun Cleopatra Coleman. He had a thing with Vishakha Moon Miley Cyrus 💀

Ben Barnes, who is Ashwini Moon & Magha Sun, dated Ardra Moon Tamsin Egerton. Then Shatabhisha Moon Felicity Jones. And also Vishakha ASC AND Hasta Moon Julianna Hough.

Possible Magha Moon Robert Sheehan with his long-time girlfriend Revati Sun Sofia Boutella.

Idris Elba's -- who's Magha Moon -- current wife is a Punarvasu Sun AND a Jyestha Moon mwahaha.

Ashwini Moon Benedict Cumberbatch's wife is a Purva Bhadrapada Sun AND Rohini Moon.

Ashwini Moon Michael C. Hall's first wife had Revati Moon, name's Amy Spanger. Then he married Jyestha Sun Jennifer Carpenter who ALSO has Punarvasu Moon and a Hasta ASC.

Ashwini Moon Matt Dillion had dated Vishakha Moon Denise Richards. Also Punarvasu native Cameron Diaz. And I believe his recent partner is Vishakha Moon Roberta Mastromichele. He'd dated Ashlesha ASC, Swati Moon and Shravana Sun Heather Graham.

Magha Moon Paul Wesley was married to Hasta Moon Torrey DeVitto. He was also engaged to Punarvasu native Phoebe Tonkin.

Ashwini Sun Machine Gun Kelly (who also dated Punarvasu native Halsey), was with Ashlesha Moon Megan Fox. Daniel Day Lewis' wife is a Revati Moon. Cilian Murphy, who I also believe to be Ketuvian, is married to a Jyestha Moon woman. Christian Bale's -- who's Ashwini Moon -- wife may have Revati Sun (she may also be Ashwini Sun if she was born past noon).

And Ketu men also go for Ketu women. Justin Trudeau's wife is an Ashwini Sun. Machine Gun Kelly dated Ashwini native Amber Rose.

Ashwini Moon Milo Ventimiglia's wife, Jarah Mariano, is a Jyestha Moon. He's dated Ashwini Moon Alexis Bledel and also Hayden Panettiere who's also an Ashwini Moon with Magha Sun.

Ashwini Moon Boris Kodjoe's wife, Nichole Ari Parker, is a Mula Moon with a Hasta Sun.

Magha Sun Andrew Garfield was with Magha ASC, Swati Sun and Hasta Moon Emma Stone. He also dated Mula Sun Shannon Woodward. He'd been with Ashwini Sun and Vishakha Moon Phoebe Dynevor. Also Ardra Sun Alyssa Miller. He got on with Ashlesha Asc & Purva Bhadrapada Moon Rita Ora too.

Mula Sun, and confirmed Ashwini Moon, Jared Leto, had dated Vishakha Moon Scarlett Johansson. Then Ashley Olsen who is literally a Magha Moon with Ashlesha ASC. He'd been with Punarvasu ASC Cameron Diaz. He was also linked with Ardra Sun Lindsey Lohan. Had an iconic love struck moment with Shatabhisha Sun, Hasta Moon Lupita Nyong'o. I think Valery Kauffman too who's Rohini Sun and Shravana Moon. Reminder that he's a Krittika Asc, he's a Sun nakshatra and my god he's got a running list of hookups I can't deal with right now so Valery is where it ends. It's honestly giving Leonardo DiCaprio lmfao who's also a Sun nakshatra (can't stand solar males💀).

If I stumble on more Ketu men, I'll probably keep editing this post. But there's a pattern here. It's Rahu, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter and Ketu nakshatras that frequently pop up in the women they date. Honorable mentions are Sun and Mars nakshatras. Seriously, I find this fascinating.

round up // JUNE 23

The best things come in pairs in this Round Up. A few repeat offenders this June:

Jason Schwartzman

Harrison Ford

Brad Pitt

Pixar

Archeological digs

Sports stories

1943 musicals

Tap dancing

‘80s pop-rock records

Two Tales of Cities

And, as always, Crowd and Critic are best when they’re in tandem. These are my top picks for June 2023 in the order I experienced them:

June Crowd-Pleasers

1. Shooting Stars (2023)

As a sports dilettante, I knew nothing about LeBron James’s pre-NBA life. (Full disclosure: I don’t know much about his post-NBA life either.) This sports drama probably sands off some edges (James produced this movie based on a book he wrote), but it hits its marks. It’s inspirational but not schmaltzy, and thanks to great performances (including an always stellar Caleb McLaughlin and I’m-always-glad-when-he-pops-up Dermot Mulroney), this story of five basketball-obsessed kids growing up is much better than you’d expect for a direct-to-Peacock movie. Crowd: 8/10 // Critic: 7/10

2. Elemental (2023)

Pixar is back to basics with Elemental. In the best way, that means Pixar is up to their old shenanigans, but in another sense, it means this movie is, well, basic. Read my full review at ZekeFilm or watch my segment on KMOV to give you an idea on whether Pixar’s latest is for you. Crowd: 8.5/10 // Critic: 8.5/10

3. Flamin’ Hot (2023)

What Flamin’ Hot lacks in heat it makes up for in heart. With its relatable stakes and the comedy it finds in skewering corporate culture, this kind-of-true story of the creation of the Flamin’ Hot Cheeto (yes, really) is about as good as it could be. Read my full review at ZekeFilm. Crowd: 8/0 // Critic: 7/10

4. Coco (2017)

Finally watched after being one of my top “oops, I haven’t seen this yet” titles for years. Yes, Pixar did make me sob again. Crowd: 9/10 // Critic: 9/10

5. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

Do you love to feel nostalgia or to be surprised? Do you like old school action or newfangled special effects? Do you enjoy historical adventures or stories about modern issues? Then the fifth Indiana Jones episode is for you! Literally the only thing this needed to achieve was to surpass the quality of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but why settle for that when you can make an action-packed adventure better than most summer blockbuster fare? Given that Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade are two of the best adventure movies (or perhaps, just movies) of the 20th century, it’s no insult to say The Dial of Destiny ranks third for me in Indy’s canon with Temple of Doom and Crystal Skull following in distant fourth and fifth places. Crowd: 10/10 // Critic: 8.5/10

6. Bananarama-thon + Bangle-mania + Go-Go-palooza

What says “summer” more than 1980s girl pop-rock bands? (Or really, 1980s pop-rock period?) Bananarama, The Bangles, and The Go-Go’s made excellent summer soundtracks with their respective albums Deep Sea Skiving (1983), Bananarama (1984), and True Confessions (1986); All Over the Place (1984), Different Light (1986), and Everything (1988); and Beauty and the Beat (1981), Vacation (1982), and Talk Show (1984). Also, does Bananarama’s debut album have the greatest cover art of all time?

7. Sports Night (1998-2000)

My binge of short-lived behind-the-scenes shows continues! Clearly Aaron Sorkin and pals like Tommy Schlamme were still learning the ropes of TV, and they were not helped by the fact that premiering in the ‘90s mandated a laugh track in the first season. But the bones of Sorkin’s future are there: Josh Charles and Peter Krause’s bromance feels like laying the track for some of the best of The West Wing, and Felicity Huffman is one of his iconic strong female leads. Robert Guillaume’s elder statesmen of TV (both in front and behind of the camera) is the glue that holds the show together, and the show’s love for sports is so infectious it draws in non-sporty girlies like me.

8. Legal Eagles (1986)

A legal dramedy starring Robert Redford directed with the light touch of Ivan Reitman? This art heist murder mystery co-starring Debra Winger and Daryl Hannah is a hidden gem of the ‘80s...and also an addition to my Favorite Tap Dances list on Letterboxd? Crowd: 9/10 // Critic: 7.5/10

9. The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses (1989)

A Rolling Stone article I shared last month got me curious about this band (whom I know nothing about beyond that article), and this album has been scratching The Smiths itch that lives in me.

June Critic Picks

1. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

It’s a visual wonder with stellar voice work, especially Jason Schwartzman’s clever villain, and once we get to the Nueva York universe, everything flies. But boy, does it take a while to get there. I normally reserve my Round Ups for praise, but since Across the Spider-Verse’s nearly universal acclaim won’t be tarnished by my critique, the spirit of transparency compels me to complain this film is at least 30 minutes too long. When you’re trying to be both a Gwen Stacy movie and a Miles Morales movie, the somber first hour slows down even more and delays revisiting the stuff we loved most in the first film. The kids next to me were antsy well before this was over, my dad fell asleep in the middle (which he never does), and then it rivals Lord of the Rings for fake out endings. Here's hoping Spider-Ham and Spider-Man Noir get to make up for their lost time in part 3! Crowd: 7.5/10 // Critic: 8/10

2. Ninotchka (1939)

When Soviet Greta Garbo travels to Paris on Communist Party business, can she resist the city’s charms? She and her fellow comrades find themselves succumbing to the amenities, champagne, and romance they can’t find in Mother Russia. An Ernst Lubitsch-directed rom-com co-written by Billy Wilder can’t miss! Crowd: 8.5/10 // Critic: 9/10

3. Little Women (2017)

Another Round Up, another version of Little Women. I immediately pushed this PBS miniseries to the top of my watchlist when I dug into Little Mermaid star Jonah Hauer-King’s past filmography and discovered he performed alongside Angela Lansbury (!!!). Though I expect the budget was smaller than a big screen feature’s, the extended runtime allows for moments we haven’t seen depicted on film before. The cast of ringers includes Lansbury as a delightfully cranky Aunt March and Hauer-King as a lovelorn Laurie, as well Maya Hawke as Jo, Kathryn Newton as Amy, and Michael Gambon as Mr. Laurence in an 1860s Concord as bucolic as ever. Like a warm, encouraging hug!

4. Past Lives (2023)

This bittersweet romantic drama makes me want to call up my boyfriend who moved away the summer after 7th grade and the guy I never dated in college who studied abroad and then transferred and that boy I met at a party a few years ago who said he was moving next week to sail boats in Delaware and then be disappointed none of them are as I remember or imagined who they would become. The best film of the year so far? Crowd: 7.5/10 // Critic: 10/10

5. Double Feature - Silly 1943 Musicals About Marrying for Money: Du Barry Was a Lady + Higher and Higher

Movies today should try being as weird as ‘40s musicals. In Higher and Higher (Crowd: 7.5/10 // Critic: 7.5/10), a one-time millionaire tries to marry off his maid to a wealthy bachelor, though she may prefer to romance Frank Sinatra (playing himself!) instead. In Du Barry Was a Lady (7.5/10 // 8/10), Lucille Ball is trying to snag herself a rich guy, though she may prefer to romance Gene Kelly instead. (This is a much more obvious addition to my Favorite Tap Dances list on Letterboxd.) Both are silly, but when you’ve got Sinatra singing or Kelly dancing to Cole Porter songs, you’ve still got wow moments. More movies today should detour into 18th century dream sequences!

6. Valley of the Kings (1954)

Robert Taylor and Eleanor Parker go on a high-stakes archaeological dig in the early 1900s set in front of gorgeous photography in Egypt. A fun prototype for Indiana Jones and The Mummy! Crowd: 7/10 // Critic: 8/10

7. Asteroid City (2023)

Something Wes Anderson does not get enough credit for: The man has never made a film longer than two hours. This spring’s trend of Wes Anderson-inspired social media may have brought attention to the previously unacquainted, but it took only a few of those superficially xanthic posts to exhaust my Instagram feed. Most social filmmaking is ugly and chaotic, but Anderson’s attention to detail when blocking his troupe of players in the golden ratio, designing perfectly-shaped mushroom clouds, and using color theory to select his palette doesn’t just hold up on a big screen—it deserves it. Read my full review at ZekeFilm. Crowd: 7/10 // Critic: 10/10

8. Double Feature - ‘90s Brad Pitt: Legends of the Fall (1994) + The Devil’s Own (1997)

In Legends of the Fall (Crowd: 8/10 // Critic: 8.5/10), Brad Pitt’s nonconformist Tristan upends the lives of his family members (including Anthony Hopkins and Julia Ormond) as they strive to keep their Montana estate through World War I, Prohibition, and the Great Depression. In The Devil’s Own (Crowd: 9/10 // Critic: 9/10), Pitt’s IRA terrorist Rory upends the life of the family who takes him in (including Harrison Ford) when he escapes to America. One is a soapy historical epic, one is a gritty police thriller, but both show the promise of Pitt’s career.

9. A Tale of Two Cities (1935)

A pretty good adaptation of one of my favorite high school English class reads. Though the nuance and depth of the Mr. Charles “I Get Paid by the Word” Dickens novel can’t be captured in just two hours and the portrayal of Lucie is, well, a lot, Ronald Colman’s Sydney and Blanche Yurka’s Madame De Farge are pitch-perfect, and it’s as moving as its source material. Crowd: 7.5/10 // Critic: 8.5/10

10. Good Reads

The incessant onslaught of more-TV-than-can-possibly-be-watched is reaching critical mass:

“The Idol and Our Backlash Times,” NYTimes.com (2023)

“‘The End of Peak Television:’ Has the Era of Prestige TV Just Ground to a Halt?” TheGuardian.com (2023)

“Peak TV Is Over. Welcome to Trough TV,” slate.com (2023)

“From Warrior Nun to Three Women, TV Shows are Being Cancelled. Yet Somehow Emily in Paris Lives On,” TheGuardian.com (2023)

“Media's Succession Obsession,” axios.com (2023)

Thoughts on our moment in diversity in TV and movies:

“Box Office: Early Summer Tentpoles Cash In, Fueled by Diverse Stars,” HollywoodReporter.com (2023)

“‘Why is Bridgerton’s Race Twisting Acceptable?’ The Real Problem With the Show’s Black Fantasy,” TheGuardian.com (2023)

The Hollywood Reporter continues its impressive breadth of Writer’s Strike coverage:

“Tom Hanks, Baby Jessica and Lessons from a Three Strike Writer,” HollywoodReport.com (2023)

“Guest Column: If Writers Lose the Standoff With Studios, It Hurts All Filmmakers,” HollywoodReporter.com (2023)

And a grab bag of pieces on baseball, basketball, and Beyoncé:

“Employee of the Month Rewarded With More Work,” vice.com (2023)

Also in June…

I’m processing a lot of emotions about what’s going on at Turner Classic Movies, and I’ve yet to figure out how to put them into words. Until I get there, I’m constantly adding to my list of movies I’ve watched thanks to the people who work there, and you can see the almost-350 of them on Letterboxd.

Until the end of July, you can see what I’m watching in real time on Letterboxd. Yes, I’ve seen Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One; no I can’t talk about it until after the review embargo lifts on July 5th.

Pending Twitter doesn’t self-implode before you read this, you can also find me there.

#fbf Old Magazine Cover & Article: "DESERT MAGAZINE: The Theory of Everything"

By Bruce Fessier, Desert Magazine, January 8th , 2015 /Cover Photo by Chris Pizzello.

"Stories of my grandfather's step-by-step deterioration from ALS are part of my family folklore.

He died at the age I am now—exactly two years after being told he had two years to live. I was born roughly nine months after his death.

My mother and grandmother related how he used a bell to communicate after becoming totally paralyzed except for his right hand. After losing the ability to use that, he communicated by blinking—one blink for yes, two for no. His great fear was being buried alive. He asked that someone prick him when he stopped breathing to see if he would bleed. My uncle performed that task.

One of my joys of watching "The Theory of Everything" was seeing how Eddie Redmayne portrayed the ALS-stricken physicist, Stephen Hawking, as his body slowly collapsed. It gave me a sense of what my grandfather went through.

Redmayne is getting Oscar buzz for his remarkably detailed portrait of Hawking. The Palm Springs International Film Festival will honor him with its Golden Palm Achievement for an Actor Award Jan. 2 at its Awards Gala at the Palm Springs Convention Center. Hawking granted the filmmakers use of his copyrighted computer-generated voice after seeing an advance screening—his equivalent of two thumbs up.

Redmayne, 32, of London attended Cambridge University, where Hawking became an icon after writing his best-selling book, "A Brief History of Time," and developing his theories on the origin of the universe. He also postulated an all-encompassing mathematical formula titled "The Theory of Everything," which he discarded after concluding there are multiple universes with various laws of physics.

Redmayne was in such awe of Hawking that, when his agent told him there was a script about him floating around, Redmayne asked to read it.

He wasn't what industry people call a box office opener. He stood out in a supporting role in "Les Miserables" and acquitted himself well opposite Michelle Williams in "My Week With Marilyn." But he had never carried a film.

Director James Marsh knew that whoever played Hawking would have to convey his charm and razor-sharp wit, and undertake an enormous amount of preparation to learn to exhibit the physical disabilities all ALS sufferers endure.

Redmayne was the first actor Marsh met about the lead role. He knew his work from British theater, which encouraged him because British actors are known for their attention to physical technique. In addition, he resembled the young Hawking.

Redmayne was nervous at their first meeting, but they communicated well and Marsh sensed he had the work ethic to handle the part.

"He had an absolute passion to do this and also he realized what it was going to entail," Marsh says in a telephone interview. "So, once I met him I was pretty certain I had met my Stephen Hawking."

One reason Redmayne was nervous was he didn't actually have training in British technique.

"I didn't go to drama school," he says in a separate interview. "I sort of blagged (deceived) my way into acting. So I'm always trying to learn from other people and I've worked with American actors who use new method techniques."

Once he got the part, he experienced a sort of crushing reality of how you go about doing it.

"It was just about plunging into an immersing myself in his world," says Redmayne. "But, daily it was pretty overwhelming and daily it felt you were a hair's breadth away from failure."

Marsh promised him, "whatever you think you need"—from vocal coaches to doctors. He spent a week in Copenhagen going over the script with Redmayne and Felicity Jones, playing Hawking's wife, Jane. Then he gave him four months to prepare for his role before beginning rehearsals.

"He and the producers gave me that time," says Redmayne. "You normally don't have that on a film. Normally you have maximum a day or three of rehearsals. I asked him if I could have a lot of time working on it and he very kindly gave that to me."

Step one after being cast was to visit an ALS clinic in London, meeting with a specialist and getting to know people living with the disease.

"I knew I needed the scaffolding and the framework of all the intricacies of what that horrific disease was," Redmayne explains. "I needed to internalize that and educate myself on it. So I started there and was lucky enough to meet people who were suffering from this disease and be introduced into some of their homes with their families to see the emotional ramifications, but also the great passion with which people are continuing to live despite those obstacles."

At night, he'd read Hawking's books. The science went over his head, but he gained a familiarity with the words, which seeped into his consciousness. He met one of Hawking's students to gain further understanding.

Marsh gave him Errol Morris' documentary on Hawking, "A Brief History of Time." Redmayne studied it, but the real challenge was knowing the stages of Hawking's deterioration. The film wasn't shot in chronological order, so Redmayne would have to know how far the disease had progressed for every scene.

"All of the documentary footage we have of Stephen is when he's in the chair," says Redmayne. "So finding out what his decline into the chair was like was a complicated one. What I did was try to get my hands on as many photographs as I could of Stephen. I would take them to the specialist, Dr. Katie Sidle, and she could say, 'OK, by that date he was…' For example, in their wedding photos (after Hawking's diagnosis) you could see all his weight is on Jane and his hand is on top of Jane's and there's a wilting to his hands.

"Basically, I tracked as many of the muscles of his body as I could through these photographs and worked out when they declined. Then I created a piece of paper of every single muscle and when it was going and where he was at vocally and whether he was on one walking stick or two, or which of the three wheelchairs he was in and whether he had a headrest that he could use as a fulcrum. I did all of that in the early process so there would absolutely be a continuity. I kept saying to James or Anthony (McCarten), the writer, once a muscle stops working it doesn't start working again. So we have to be completely water tight with our work."

Redmayne spent a lot of time in front of a mirror with an iPad trying to embed images of Hawking at each stage of deterioration so he could focus on each scene. But he soon realized he needed help moving parts of his body from one position to another. So he went to a choreographer, Alex Reynolds.

"When you have steps of a dance, while you're learning them you're concentrating on putting what foot where," he says. "Once you really know it, then that's just in your body and it's how you express yourself with that dance. I wanted all the physical elements of the ALS to be second nature in me. So that's how I decided to approach it."

In the film, viewers see Redmayne's head slump. Then one shoulder is higher than the other. His lower lip and one jowl droops. His eyebrows move animatedly. It's so real, I imagine this must have been how it was for my grandfather.

I can't help but think of how exhausting it must have been to freeze a facial muscle instead of letting it move instinctively according to stimuli.

"It's interesting you say that," says Redmayne, "because quite often people go, 'There's so much in the film where you're doing so little.' I'm always like, 'No, your facial muscles are in such extreme places and then you're trying to keep some parts static whilst others, like the muscles around the eyes, move.' So weirdly, the most exhausting part of the filming process was the bit where he could move the least."

Remarkably, the camera never shows Redmayne straining to flex or freeze those muscles. He must have focused on breathing as if it were a yoga exercise.

"One of the things I really cared about was the breath patterns," he says, "particularly in the last two scenes. Those breaths were slower, the muscles to breathe take a lot more effort—because they can be failing. But also, things like eye movement and blinking movement. All of that pace is measured and slower. Weirdly, there'd be this kind of expulsion of breath at the end of a take."

One day, Marsh noticed the task was becoming so physically demanding, he said, "We've got to have something where he can be properly looked after afterwards." So Redmayne got an osteopath to give him facial treatments to relieve the physical stress.

"He got my body through the rehearsal process," says Redmayne. "Part of that process was also about teaching your muscles to shorten or elongate depending on the physicality. You didn't just go into a physicality because they would go into a spasm because they weren't used to it. It was like training them to sustain (positions). So the osteopath would track what my body was doing throughout filming. There'd be occasional days when a muscle would tweak and then I actually got acupuncture."

Marsh would put a camera so close to Redmayne's face that any flaw could push him past that hair's breadth to failure. He just gave Redmayne encouragement.

"If you have actors as good as Eddie who have done all this work, you let them go and set them free," Marsh says. "Then they're free to make mistakes as well. I wouldn't think anything I did in any detail was either useful or harmful to the performance."

By the time they were ready to shoot, "He owned that character," said Marsh. Then, four days before filming, Redmayne got to meet Hawking.

"We had tried to see him earlier, but he was incredibly busy," Redmayne says. "So going to meet him was this mixture of great privilege and trepidation because, by that point, I had a sense of what the arc of the story would be. And what if I met him and it completely undermined all that and I really got it all wrong? Fortunately, when I met him it was like it tied everything together because the overwhelming feeling was his wit and his charm. He has a really unique sense of mischief."

The fact that Hawking has managed to retain his wit and charm and maintain a busy schedule is somewhat of a medical miracle. At 72, he's lived almost

50 years since being given two years to live.

No one knows why he's still alive. But both Marsh and Redmayne say he's long eschewed the advice of doctors.

"Stephen has such an aversion to doctors because when he was diagnosed the doctor was so cruel in his manner," says Redmayne. "I definitely wouldn't want to speculate on that. Some people say, was it the strain of the disease? His determination? That is mind is so extraordinary? I definitely don't want to speculate why, but certainly he is a man with a formidable determination and passion for life."-

i’m a fan of shipping , plain &. simple. whether it be romantic , familial , platonic , whatever , i want those bonds. i’m also a fan of testing out things because i see potential for them , so please don’t be afraid to approach me about a ship. if you ship it , i probably do too.

if i follow you , i want to write with you. i am definitely a slow rper &. life doesn’t always allow me to get to threads or messages so please just be patient. using memes , writing starters , or plotting are all excellent ways of starting interactions. if we plot &. can develop things outside of directly writing , i will be more invested in our relationships.

my psd is ahch to by kingsleigh. i do not use icons or banners. all writing , personal headcanon , &. original edits belong to me.

i don’t own julie crawford , the texas chainsaw series , or felicity jones. i do own content made for this blog , so again , don’t steal.

there is very little information regarding the victims of the tcm game , everything is made up by me &. friends. consider julie an original character for the most part !
