“Pola Negri was the first European actress to be wooed, won and misunderstood by Hollywood … She had the kind of down-to-earth animal magnetism that more recent audiences associate with a Bardot or a Loren. She was a descendant of Polish gypsies, and her ancestry was reflected in the demeanour and tatty clothes of her screen image – it added to her desirability. As one critic engagingly noted at the time, trying to explain her attraction, “You had the feeling that the back of her neck was dirty.” Hollywood imported her and immediately sanitized her, washing off the dirt and replacing her tatters with elegant clothes and elaborate coiffures – it didn’t work, but she made a hell of a name for herself during her tempestuous decade in the movie capital.”
/ From The Illustrated Encyclopedia of The World’s Great Movie Stars (1979) by Ken Wlaschin /
“She played the definitive Hollywood Star. No sooner had she landed in town than she set up an affair with a biggie, Charlie Chaplin, kept a panther on a leash, called everyone “darling”, demanded that she be called Madame Negri or Countess Dombski, sabotaged shootings with tantrums and feigned headaches, laid Chaplin aside for Valentino (more to the point), gave a smashing performance at his funeral in New York shortly before suing his estate for $15,000 (a loan), and like Swanson, married a title. She could act, too.”
/ From Movie Star: A Look at the Women Who Made Hollywood (1983) by Ethan Mordden /
Born on this day: volcanic Polish silent movie diva Pola Negri (née Apolonia Chalupec, 3 January 1897 – 1 August 1987).

Our Main Chance: Agroecology
Our Main Chance: Agroecology
The phrase main chance generally refers to the most advantageous prospect available, the opportunity for the greatest progress or gain in any given set of circumstances. I use the phrase now in regard to our tempestuous environmental, climatological, social, and spiritual circumstances. In a historical context, playwright William Shakespeare employed the phrase main chance memorably in a speech…

I was going through a thesaurus yesterday night and came across the word tempestuous. After reading its definition I developed a mild obsession over it. Tempestuous: characterized by strong and turbulent or conflicting emotion.
I instantly thought about the headspace I go into when anything is particularly stressing or my insecurities are getting the best of me. I imagine everything going on in my head looks like the image below. Overthinking is a big problem of mine. It can be hard to overcome and most days I lose. I just thought it was cool that I could associate this word with that now.

. . . but I had forgotten, or probably had never felt before, the ferocity of his feeling—his fury, grief, and bloodlust.

Aabria Iyengar should play Galadriel.
Audiobook, liveplay game, movie I don't even care, she'd be amazing in all of them.

74th Ivory Wardens, my custom Tempestus Scions regiment
under the command of stalwart Tempestor Prime Saif Ayad, they dedicate a lot of time to the strength of mind on the same levels as imperial psykers do. they are a natural choice when it comes to battling Chaos and corruption
the left base is a template, and the color scheme is by my favorite @viper-zero-one
