2023: The Year that Should Have Been Samuel L. Jackson's

Anyone who follows my blog knows I really like Samuel L. Jackson. I don't know him personally or anything. I just think he seems fun. I like how he says he makes the kinds of movies he would want to see as a kid (and isn't precious about the ~art~ of acting). Brie Larson also said some things in the Captain Marvel press tour about how confident he is, and now sometimes I think "Pretend you are Samuel L. Jackson" when I feel anxious in a work situation.

Some other things I like about him:

He was expelled from Morehouse College for his acts of civil disobedience. Though I can't say I support some of his later criminal acts or drug use.

I enjoy the random fun fact that he was an usher at Martin Luther King Jr's funeral.

Unlike a lot of the MCU actors, SLJ reads comics. He was the one who saw his face in The Ultimates and was like, "Uh. WTF, Marvel?" just because he happened to read it. (Companies are not allowed to use an individual's likeness without their consent, he could have sued Marvel, instead he made a deal for them to put him in movies if they made them.)

Regarding the above, I think a lot is said about how Feige and Favreau were such visionaries to create the MCU. And obviously they did the work. But I think SLJ saw it even earlier. (Ultimates came out in 2002, six years before Iron Man would happen and the deal he made would pan out.)

I know SLJ has made some bad movies. Some are fun bad. Some are just bad. But he has a way of making even the worst dialogue interesting. (IDK. I saw a teen spy movie he was in with Hailee Steinfeld and Sophie Turner. They are both actresses that I like, but any scene he wasn't in was kind of boring. And I was like, "Whoa how did you make me pay attention; I was falling asleep?")

Wow this post is long and I haven't even gotten to the point.

The point is that Secret Invasion should have been his moment to shine in the MCU. He never led a project before. And it's being called the worst thing ever. But it's so frustrating that it was so bad with the caliber of actors they had. It should not have been this way.

To add insult to injury, Jackson finally got to perform August Wilson's The Piano Lesson on Broadway.

Jackson was part of the original cast of that play, working with the celebrated playwright himself... at Yale Repertory Theater. When it came time to move the play to Broadway, Charles S. Dutton replaced him.

So last year a Broadway revival was staged. It was directed by his wife, LaTonya Richardson Jackson. Now Jackson played the older man, and his friend Denzel's son, John David Washington, played the role Jackson had originated.

Jackson was nominated for a Tony. But didn't win. The internet made fun of his reaction to the results being read.

I just feel like, I'd have been bummed too. He didn't slap anybody or complain about losing. He was gracious.

I keep thinking about what could have been. He's 74 years old (doesn't look it, imo), but he won't be around forever. I want him to be appreciated in his lifetime.

And goddamnit I am still mad they didn't air his Lifetime Achievement Oscar speech.

do any other artists feel like. yeah you're a 'good artist' because you draw things that look nice, but like. TECHNICALLY? you're really not great

i really hate that i can recognise that yes, my art is good, but is it VARIED? is it dynamic?? is my anatomy good? is it full of texture and colour theory? do i know how to do This? can i do That? no, not really. and that's quite painful actually

#ramble #yes this is the artist's perspective bs and yes this is anxiety because it's 1am #and yes i'm forever learning and growing but also #aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. #drawing my little guys is fun but i am not good enough for the industry right now and that fucking sucks #i really feel like if i walked into a studio with my portfolio right now they would laugh at me #one of those days where i wish i'd done a more useful degree y'know #i'm going back through the phase where i don't know what i'm going to be anymore and it's scary #some days i really want to give it up and never draw again and do something worthwhile because i Know my life would be easier #and i hate that something i love so much makes me feel so hopeless #signs that i should go to bed ^^^^ #i will resume my pity party tomorrow

warning. dubcon, blasphemy basically lol

priest son!soobin who somehow with all his mind tricks convinces you, a newly christian devouted woman, that hes fucking you against the church walls to cure you from your satanic urges, the devils that loom over your shoulder that oh, are just some of the worst hes seen. cumming inside, his monster cock creating a grotesque bulge in your lower abdomen, filling you up with his slimy, thick load—his version of holy water, over and over again

#i was about to type something debauched but i let it go #should i just say it #what if he forces u to call him father the way u call his dad #while he fucks you mercilessly 😭 #i think i need to head to bed #🌷. rana thoughts

okay, but where's my steddie AU where steve wants to learn to play guitar to impress a girl he's infatuated with and he remembers that munson kid was always hanging up posters for his weird band at school, so he hikes out to eddie's usual dealing spot behind the track and asks (with far less groveling than he really should have) if eddie will teach him how to play, and obviously eddie says no because why would he want to help king steve, but of course, steve offers to pay him, $20 a week, and well, that's the kind of get-the-hell-out-of-this-shithole-town cash eddie really can't afford to refuse, so fine, he'll teach steve to play and they'll spend inordinate amounts of time together tucked away in eddie's room and they'll start to see that they have more in common than they thought and that they kind of had each other all wrong, and eddie will put his hand over steve's to help him get the placement for a tricky chord and it totally won't awaken anything in either of them?? where is it??

edit: i started writing it

#steve x eddie #steddie #stranger things #someone tell me this has already been written because i need it. please. #bonus points if steve shows up to the first practice session empty-handed #and eddie nearly calls the whole thing off when he has the Audacity to grab at eddie's sweetheart as if eddie'd ever let him play her #and he doesn't even teach steve anything that day because rule number one get your own fucking guitar and keep your mitts off mine #but by the end when eddie is deep deep deep in love and it's time to send steve off to woo this lucky girl of his #he offers to let steve take his sweetheart because she's guaranteed to make him look ten times hotter and cooler #and he'll have no trouble sweeping his girl off her feet and maybe eddie's breaking his own heart but it's fine—as long as steve's happy #except steve doesn't seem nearly as happy as eddie thought he would be #he seems sad actually and eddie kind of hates that so he starts to make some lame joke about how steve should be honored #because eddie wouldn't lend his baby out to just anyone and that gets steve to crack half a smile #but then he puts the guitar down on eddie's bed (with all due gentle reverence) walks over takes eddie's face in his hands and kisses him #kisses him like he's been dying to do it for weeks. because he has #because somewhere along the line it stopped being about wanting to impress a girl and started being about wanting to be with eddie #it started being screwing up on purpose so that eddie would grab his hands and show him how it's supposed to be done #and forgetting about lessons entirely and just sitting around and listening to eddie talk or just watching him play #because somewhere along the line steve fell out of infatuation and into love with the last person he ever expected.... #anyway idk where i'm going with this

There really aren’t words to describe the simple queer joy that is lounging on the couch shirtless after top surgery.

#queer #nonbinary #top surgery #the simple queer joy of going for a run after top surgery #the simple queer joy of flopping in bed after top surgery #the simple queer joy of treating your own chest like a drum kit after top surgery #it’s like breathing. it’s like getting to breathe for the first time in 20 years. #I love my scars and I love my silly ease within my body and I love how #even if I still don’t look quite like I feel I should in other ways (hips face lack of muscle in my arms) #I FEEL like I feel like I always should have #and the sense of home within my body is more enormous and somehow simpler than I could ever have words for #though fuck knows I’ll keep trying #because it’s important. if not for me then for kids who think they’ll never get here #you can. you will. it’s exceptional and you deserve to feel exceptional in your own bones

Things that I think Might Give Nuance to Eleceed aka I complain

how the fuck has Jiwoo not shown more attachment issues with other characters, like I know he does has at one point with Kayden but it's so infrequent that you forget this kid has basically been neglected his entire life

Can I get a chapter on just his eating habits? Like we don't know much about him other than that he's an overpowered bean. Like can he cook or does he even do it? Does he just live off of takeout and shin ramyun for the majority of his life?? I WANT ANSWERS!!

+ to point 2, failed chance of environmental storytelling but hey if u gotta pump out a new chapter every week that's at least 40 panels I would skip it too.

LET THE BESTIE FUCKING HANGOUT OMFG! never in my life have I seen a friend group as underdeveloped as Subin, Wooin, Jisuk, and Jiwoo... Before u come for my ass I know I'm right because do u remember ANY chapters where their dynamics were explored... and I mean just them I'm srs

Shakes u aggressively The fucking entirety of the payoff of the Jiwoo gets kidnapped and core fucking obliterated arc? Like how the hell is he fine and dandy after that shit? NO, I DO NOT CARE HOW GOOD OF A HEALER KARTEIN IS I WANT TO SEE SOME ANGST!!!

slams papers THEY INTRODUCE CHARACTERS AND SUDDENLY THEY'RE FUCKING DEAD. The fact that some arguably pivotal characters to the plot and world-building cough Sucheon, Arthur, Iseul, etc, etc. cough have not appeared in over like 150 ch tells me WAY too much about the current development and I DO NOT LIKE IT!! Let's explore Sucheon and HIS REACTION TO THE KIDNAPPING THING? Iseul can talk to animals, cool but kayden is a human who basically transfigured into a cat... maybe there is more to those awakened animals... OR FUCKING ARTHUR?? MY GUY HAS NO HARM AND WITNESSED FRAME KILL HIS CLASSMATES AND WAS BETRAYED HOW TF DID THAT FLY UNDER THE BUS

u know what pisses me off is that they aren't actively developing Amyeong (dark) and Jiwoo's relationship and Amyeong's ties to Jiwoo's mother. Also, PERSONALY, I think Jiwoo and his mother should be more awkward around each other considering her job and I've seen videos that the lack of time spent with a parent can rlly just make them a stranger to a child. Plus Kayden knows more about Jiwoo than his mother anyways let me SEE it.

In the end, I just complain out of a slight love for the series, these are things I just personally want to see out of the webcomic that's all. Also, I might have more, I kinda stopped reading it in order after ch 200 something.

#eleceed #seo jiwoo #i'm so fucking funny #pls give this poor child a personality #I'm sorry but liking cats isn't a personality trait #why do i do this to myself #just yappin #what is bro yapping about #let me cook #i just want good story telling #I rlly should go to bed #eleceed webtoon

Offscreen season 5 conversation between Mike and Harvey, probably.

(Sweet, forgiving, too decent) Mike: Hey I know this bit with Trevor's gonna be tough and I understand you have to attack his credibility but he did used to be my oldest friend so maybe try to leave some shread of his dignity intact?

Harvey: (with a shark like smile and a malicious glint in his eyes that suggests he has been preparing for this exact moment since birth)

Harvey: No.

#marvey #mike x harvey #harvey specter #mike ross #suits marvey #suits #harvey is a protector first #and he's been waiting for this moment for a long time #like basically since that day at the hotel #like foaming at the mouth to get his teeth into Trevor #jumps right out of his seat at the hearing like #“LETS FUCKING GO YOU LITTLE SHIT” #meanwhile Mike is facepalming like #fucking knew he was going to have a field day with this #oh well I warned him #should have just stayed in bed Trevor #but no you had to piss off my Harvey #expanding this scene for my AU was fun af #fuck Trevor Evans
