A full character analysis on TIM ROCKFORD from the adverts for MERGE MANSION

I've created this as a point of reference when writing for Pedro's characters, and I hope you find it useful. Even if you just want to learn more about the character. 🖤

FULL MASTERLIST OF PEDRO'S CHARACTERS ANALYSED

FULL CHARACTER STUDY:

Basic Details:

Full Name: Tim Rockford (Tim is often a shortened version of the full name Timothy, however he is only referred to as Tim in the commercials)

Nickname(s): None confirmed

Appears in: Merge Mansion Adverts, 2023

Age (if known): Unconfirmed, suspected on the range anywhere between mid-to-late forties/early-to-mid fifties, based on physical appearance

Sexuality: Not confirmed

Nationality: American, based in LA, however it's not confirmed where he's from specifically

Family: Not confirmed

Spouse/Partner: No mention of a current partner

Relationship Status: Not confirmed

Current Living Status: Alive

Languages Spoken: English

Education: Presumed at least college educated as he's a detective

Occupation:

Job Role/Title: LAPD Detective

Special Skill(s): Investigation, mystery/crime solving, weapons handling

Notable Colleague(s): None mentioned

Distinguishing Features:

Tattoo(s): Bullseye tattoo on left hand between thumb and forefinger (Pedro's own) however it is also missing in some shots/scenes. V letter tattoo on right wrist (Pedro's own).

Piercings: None

Scar(s): None notable

Other Markings: None notable

Prominent Feature(s): Slightly greying curled hair and beard/moustache

Injuries: Tim is not seen sustaining any injuries

Eye Colour: Brown

Hair Colour: Brown/greying

Personality:

Traits: Questioning, determined, curious

Tim is part of the LAPD according to his detective badge (Los Angeles Police Department). His badge number appears to be either 2316 or 2516 when zoomed in, however the image is blurry to confirm either way 100%.

Tim is softly spoken with a grizzly cadence to his American accent.

Objects seen on Tim's desk include a small black bound notebook, evidence bags and photographs, his name plaque, a radio walkie-talkie, pencil pot, evidence numbers, keyboard and desk tidy, keys and a telephone

The total length of Pedro's seen screen time as Tim, across all 3 adverts, is approximately 48 seconds.

In late February 2024, the official Merge Mansion Youtube Channel & Instagram page, removed all of the adverts starring Pedro as Tim Rockford off their platforms. This is more than likely because his contract with Merge Mansion advertising has come to an end, and usually when this happens, the brand (the game in this case) will remove them ready for a new advertising campaign.

Fashion/Outfits:

Outfits - Tim wears a white dress shirt with sleeves rolled up to his mid-arms, with dark brown slacks and a black leather belt with simple silver buckle design. He appears to be wearing a white tank top/vest undershirt/wifebeater under his shirt. He wears dark black shoes and a mid-length beige/tan trench coat. He wears a black and grey striped tie, in a single, loose knot. He is seen wearing a dark black suit blazer also.

Accessories: Tim wears a silver link watch on his left wrist. He wears thick black-rimmed spectacles. He wears his gold detective badge on his left hip. He wears a black leather, singular gun holster, with his gun holstered on the left side.

Weapons Used:

Weapon(s): (Exact weapons pictured below)

Tim's gun is only briefly seen and it's holstered. From the looks of it, it appears to be a standard issue Glock, possibly a Glock 17 or 19 model, which is usually synonymous with the LAPD.

Modes of Transport:

Vehicle(s):

Tim is driving a old vintage style car from the 70's/80's era. The car looks to be a 1979 Chevrolet Caprice model when compared with pics:

Dialogue:

🗨 See Tim's full dialogue from the adverts, including deleted scenes.

Hey Terra 💝

My turn asking YOU something about that Fanfic Writer Bingo!

• What is your research about for Hange in Paradis?

• What fic did you write when you had drunk the most? (bonus point if you specify which type of alcohol was involved🍹)

Love you lots Terra Darling 💜

Yo! Thanks for sending me asks, Val 💞

What fic did you write when you had drunk the most? (bonus point if you specify which type of alcohol was involved🍹) I'd been drinking for most of the afternoon by the time I wrote my Vets karaoke drabble ('We Are the Champions'). I remember enjoying some a lot of Bailey's with ice.

What is your research about for Hange in Paradis? It's actually been your amazing mood boards which have helped with this! I've been trying to picture one of the rooms in the Captain's house in Paradis so I've studied up on your images and a bunch of pictures of vintage roll top desks. Here are the results. I may/may not use every word of this in 'A Sunrise Without You Is Coming' (Hange in Paradis), but I'll definitely use some!

A wooden, roll top desk stood before the window. Hange drew closer, captivated by the odd assortment of items arranged upon its surface. The upper portion of the desk was divided into narrow, open drawers. Some were empty, whilst letters were stacked neatly inside others. On the very top shelf several hardback books leaned against one another - The Great Economists. The Rise and Fall of the West. A Brief Military History of Eldia. There was an empty bottle, its label too faded to read. Beside this, a glass pot filled with scissors, brushes, fountain pens and assorted slim tools. And then a circular, wire frame which enclosed a photograph of Levi with his parents. Hange lifted it, marvelling at a much younger Levi. He had to have been in his late teens when this was taken; perhaps in his final days of school. There was something so carefree in his expression; all responsibilities shed away. Those years of freedom and opportunity before he had shouldered the burden of captaincy. Standing behind him, his parents seemed to be barely containing their pride. Their smiles were almost on the brink of laughter; only modesty forbade them from expressing their unrestrainable joy. Levi’s father was built similarly to him - short and stocky - with dark hair. He was dressed in a dark green military jacket and white trousers, only– Hange scrutinised the photograph. His crest was not Survey Corps, but the horse’s head of the Military Police. Hange replaced the photograph, turning their attention to a tiny wooden box beside it. Gingerly lifting its lid, Hange saw the same military crest. In a paler shade of green was the horse’s head, adorned by a mane of white thread. Shreds of dark green material still surrounded it. Hange almost withdrew, too afraid to touch it. But there was something else in here; another piece of cloth around the same size. The material was white, bearing hand stitching in a slightly darker white-grey. An elaborate letter ‘A.’ Hange snapped the lid closed upon it.

A small, ceramic dish, nothing more than an old trinket for holding jewellery, had been tucked almost out of view by the wooden box. As Hange had replaced the former item, they noticed the dish contained a few odd pins and a pair of pearl earrings. Until recently, Hange understood, this must have also held a wedding ring. His mother’s. They threaded the gold band around their finger, suddenly feeling the momentous weight of its history upon their hand. How could Levi have trusted them with this? They were little more than a stranger to him. A Marleyan spy. An enemy invader. And yet he had given them something so precious in the slim hope that it could save their life…

Down upon the desk’s surface stood another picture, this time surrounded by a square frame. Here was Levi again, a little older than in the first photograph, but still without the years of sacrifice and duty that had pain-tightened his lips and dulled the light in his eyes. Here he was with two others - friends from a long time ago? A taller blonde boy with a roguish grin and a girl with unruly red hair, hastily tied into low bunches. All three were dressed in casual clothes and bore backpacks upon their shoulders. Behind them stretched the expanse of a city horizon. Somewhere far from Paradis; somewhere humid and dense and sprawling, with vivid sunsets and too many people and mighty skyscrapers.

Hange placed down the frame and adjusted the one next to it. This image was far more familiar. Levi stood in his Survey Corps uniform, his expression as serious as ever. Surrounding him, standing two in formation on either side of him, were Oluo and Petra, and Eld and Gunter. Each of them had their hands stowed behind their backs, expressions grim and steadfast as though they were staring into the face of danger. And now, they were. Every second Hange remained in this place, they were endangering them all…

Beside a small stack of letters bound by string, Hange flicked through another selection of slim books in the middle of the desk. The last of these was not a book at all but a faded green sleeve. The only words printed upon it were For Levi.

As they lifted it, Hange could feel a large, circular record shift inside. Hange looked about themself. There was a gramophone downstairs but they had been instructed not to make any noise during the day for fear it would draw attention. And yet, how they longed to hear what it might contain…

Starter for @mvrtogg

The coffee shop air swirled with aromatic dreams. The tables in their rich deep browns, the ambiance of friendly chatter, called many costumers in from the wintry day.

There were vintage photographs placed around the walls, allowing coffee tasters to admire the photo-taking techniques. The dim lights on the high ceilings were bright enough to shine on the chestnut colored furniture. The place had a few tall walls of ancient volumes, though mostly they were now a sort of decoration to set the scene. Majority of the locals simply visited the bookstore cafe to get a coffee and escape the busy work-life.

Thursday - seven thirty in the morning; he entered with the daily newspaper and settled into his chair, like usual. "Lizzy, can you get that costumer please?" Betty asked while setting a tray down on a table and handed a steaming cup of coffee to one of the regulars, Mr. Brown. "certainly." Elizabeth replied already making her way towards him.

"Good morning," Everything about her was a soft and understated joy as she greeted him. The police officer's eyes were compelled to the paper he was trying to read. Lizzy had seen the man before, but most of the time she wasn't given the opportunity to talk to him. "What can I get for you?" She asked curiously.

You have to guard these things forever in your heart. That’s why photographs are taken in the first place.

They may be nothing more than scraps of paper, but they capture something profound. Light and wind and air, the tenderness or joy of the photographer, the bashfulness or pleasure of the subject. You have to guard these things forever in your heart. That’s why photographs are taken in the first place.

HEART'S BLOOD - CHAPTER 1

*Warning: Adult Content*

Julian Hart always thought it was funny when the lead character in a detective story was the one who found the body.

What are the chances, right?

At least, that's what he thought until today, when he literally stumbled on a body himself.

His morning was going so well, too.

He had risen early and since he had no consultations and it was a beautiful day, decided to treat himself to an extra large latte and then go for a run along the river.

It had felt like a good start to a good day and he wasn't even bothered when Kevin the ass-hole barista, who apparently still hasn't forgiven Julian for breaking up with him after one date wrote 'Julie’ instead of 'Julian' on the side of his coffee cup.

He had driven his vintage VW beetle, restored to a gleaming royal blue, to his favourite running trail, finished his coffee and then setting of along the winding path.

It weaves a twenty-mile loop along the river and through the woods at the edge of town.

Although Julian only ever runs a small stretch of this running path at a time.

Today, he had chosen one of his favourite trails, the paved path snakes alongside the water through dense aspen, birch and willow trees.

It's like something from a fairy-tale, rich with the charm of nature that draws people to this town.

Spring Lakes lies between the arms of a mountain range.

It is a small isolated, quirky and eccentric and more liberal than most places this far north in California.

It's also a haven for people like Julian, people with unusual gifts.

Nobody blinks twice when you tell them that you are psychic and the police are among his most loyal customers.

Which is why they take him serious when he reports the dead body as a murder and when he tells them that the killer is... unusual, to say the least.

It was little after eight o'clock in the morning, sunlight lacing through the green canopy of leaves and he had just passed the 5km mark on his running app when the latte had caught up with him.

Julian knew it was bad manners but he needed to pee and since there was nobody around he went behind some bushes, pulled down his running pants and that's when he saw the dead girl.

At least he saw her before he peed on her, that would have have been hard to explain.

Chief Laura Coleridge is giving Julian a side-eyed glance as it is, as if she also thinks it's unrealistic for people whose business involves dead bodies to go around finding them by accident.

Now, she beacons him over to where she is standing near the corpse with the coroner and the crime-scene photographer.

Mercifully, they have covered the dead girl’s body by this point, so he approaches without having to see it again.

Once is quite enough, thanks.

"Tell me one more time, Hart," Chief Coleridge says.

"How did you find the body? It was very well concealed," she adds.

Julian can tell from the set of her mouth that she's only making him say it again because she thinks it's funny and that the others haven't heard it yet.

A least she has a sense of humor.

Her predecessor was a jerk who refused to work with him because of what he called the psychic's, smart assed attitude.

So far, Chief Coleridge and Julian are getting along and he'd like to keep it that way, so instead of rolling his eyes, he reigns in his sarcasm and tells it one more time.

"I was running and needed to, um... relieve myself," Julian says.

"So I went behind the bushes here because, as you say, it's a very well concealed spot, and that's when... I found her," he adds, swallowing again, a hint of his earlier nausea resurfacing with the memory of what he had seen.

"Then I called you."

Not exactly the relaxing morning Julian had planned.

"I bet it really put a pinch on the flow of things," the coroner comments dryly and the crime-scene photographer giggles.

Coming from a balding, heavy-set man in his fifties, it was not an attractive sound.

Julian scowls at him, feeling like maybe someone should be offering him hot chocolate and a blanket or something.

Julian consults on police investigations from time to time but mangled corpses are deferentially not part of his daily routine.

He could be in shock for all they know.

"And after you call it in, then what did you do?" Chief Coleridge prompts and Julian blinks at her.

"I uh... I relieved myself somewhere else," Julian says and she rolls her eyes at his answer.

"I don't care if you pissed or not, Hart, I mean what did you do at the scene. Did you touch anything? Move anything? Pick anything up?"

"No. I did not."

The problem with working with the police, at least in this town, is that they always assume being a psychic makes some kind of idiot.

"I'll read the evidence if you want me to. But you'll have to pay for my services like everyone else."

Julian's abilities lets him pick up perceptions from things that he touches.

Perceptions such as, sight, sounds, smells, tastes, sensations and even emotions.

The stronger the energy associated with the object the stronger his impression will be.

A murder victim, or anything they may have touched, is guaranteed to provide some very strong impressions indeed.

Strong and if past experience says anything, extremely unpleasant.

He’s not about to go doing a reading just for kicks.

"If you want my services, I'll require our usual arrangement," Julian continues, striving for a conciliatory tone and he could use the money, after all.

"That will be up to the lead detective on the case. I'll pass along my recommendation," Chief Coleridge says, hands on her ample hips.

"I have a feeling we could use your help on this one, Julian. Especially if your info on the killer turns out to be correct."

Julian did get an impression but not on purpose though and not from the victim.

After looking down to discover he was about to pee on a dead girl, Julian had stumbled back to the running track as fast as he could.

On the way, his sleeve snagged on a sharp branch and as he freed himself from it's clutches he realized he wasn't the first to get caught.

A bit of blue fabric hung tangled with the twigs and he realized he had accidently brushed it with his hand.

Usually, he always kept himself well-guarded but the shock of finding a body had left him vulnerable and one touch was all it took for his senses to be overwhelmed.

His impression was little more than a confused scramble of chaotic sensations but he relayed as much as he could to Chief Coleridge and her team.

The fabric came from the killer, that much was clear.

A wild darkness filled his mind, his senses like that of an animal and the killer was driven by the desire to hunt and to kill.

The killer had just opened the girls rib-cage and ripped out her heart but he wasn't satisfied.

He would kill again.

Julian knew this because of all his impressions, the strongest was this... the killer had enjoyed it.

He had though it as fun.

This revelation, more than the sight of the gore, is what make him so sick.

"Who's the lead detective?" Julian asks, swallowing against the tang of nausea at the back of his throat.

"Vasquez?" he adds, raising his eyebrows hopefully.

Julian: ‘Detective Vasquez is experienced and easy going. She doesn't take me seriously but a least she laughs at my jokes.’

"Nope, not this time," Chief Coleridge says, her iron gray eyes are bright in her weathered face and for some reason the corner of her mouth is twitching.

"Erickson?" Julian asked, trying not to wince.

Julian: ‘Detective Erickson is good at his job and it's not that he doesn't want to work with me. He does... just a little too much.’

The last time Julian consulted on one of Erickson's cases, he had made it very clear that the evidence was not the only thing he wanted him to touch.

Julian had given him a firm pass on that and it had hurt the detective’s pride.

Even so, Erickson hadn't given up for some reason and just couldn't believe that Julian just didn't like him.

"Nope. Not Erickson either," Chief Coleridge smirks.

"Okay. Who then?" Julian inquires, getting frustrated with the chief of police's obvious game playing.

There was Detective Perlman but he's inept.

Detective Basher is promising but he's far too inexperienced for something like this.

"Someone new," Chief Coleridge says, a disturbing uncharacteristic grin stretching across her face.

"Just transferred down here from a big city up north. Don't know why he wants to work in a backwater town like Spring Lakes but his record is extemporary."

"Cool. When do I met him?"

Chief Coleridge nods over Julian's shoulder, her expression back to it's familiar professional neutrality.

"How about right now?"

Julian turns around and feels his jaw drop down a little, due to the six and a half feet of gorgeous walking towards him.

Smooth almond skin over muscles that shift with fluid strength.

Long brown dread-locks tipped with gold and a set of startling amber-colored eyes in a face that belonged on the front page of a fashion magazine.

Julian has no idea what his parentage might be but he'd like to send a thank you note to his mom and dad because they have created a God.

"Detective Hunter. Good to see you," Chief Coleridge says, greeting him with a handshake and quickly filling him in on the case at hand.

When she finishes, Detective Dane Hunter turns towards Julian with cold curiosity lighting his eyes.

"And, who is this?" he asks, his voice slightly rough and gravelly, smooth and dark.

"Dane Hunter, meet Julian Hart. Julian consults for us from time to time. In this case he's not on the team... yet. He found the body," Chief Coleridge says, making the introductions.

Detective Hunter's curiosity sharpens to the point that Julian finds mildly uncomfortable.

He moves closer to grasp Julian’s hand and even though he is at least two feet away, Julian imagines he can feel heat coming from his body and he badly wants to step right into that warmth.

"You consult? How?" Detective Hunter asks.

"I'm a cl... clairsentient," he stammers, feeling wildly inadequate.

Julian is not a shrimp but his body type is on the lean side and tends towards slim rather than bulky.

He's barely half as wide as the mountain of a man before him and his perfectly respectable five foot 11 inches seems tiny next to Detective Hunter's height.

"What's that? Some kind of scientist?" Detective Hunter asks, his voice has an almost physical quality and Julian shivers as he feels the vibration of the sound against his skin.

"Uh... No... I'm..."

Julian: ‘Clearly losing my mind because the life of me, I can't think of a single word. At least not one I can say aloud in this work environment.’

"He's a psychic," Chief Coleridge supplies, clearly amused at the situation.

She knows Julian can't resist anything along the lines of the perfect mesomorph standing in front of him right now.

Detective Hunter has shoulders that look like they could carry the world.

Julian can see muscles rippling through his shirt and narrow hips that...

Julian touches the corner of his mouth just to make sure he's not actually drooling.

Then he realizes that as much as he's about to fall into instant-lust with the ‘Adonis’ in front of him.

But Detective Hunter is apparently feeling nothing of the sort in return.

In fact he's looking at Julian with a mixture of fascination and disgust with which one might regard a particularly hideous spider.

"Huh. I should have guessed," Detective Hunter says, pulling his hand away from Julian's grasp and then actually wiping it on his jeans.

"It's not contagious," Julian says, frowning and reassessing his opinion of the Lead Detective.

Julian knows he may look a little strange but most people at least have the decency to pretend.

His chocolate brown hair and ivory-pale skin aren't that unusual but his amethyst-colored eyes are.

People assume they are contacts.

But they are not.

Between his eyes and his face that gets called 'pretty' more times than the young man would like.

People jump to all kinds of conclusions, most of which are obviously wrong.

He stares a challenge at Detective Hunter who just crosses his arms over his broad chest, clearly not impressed.

"Uh Huh," he grunts.

"And how exactly did you find the body? Mr...?"

"Hart?" Julian prompts, annoyed.

Julian: ‘We were just introduced, like two seconds ago.’

"Your name is Hart? Is that a fact? You don't sound too sure."

"I've already given my statement," Julian replies, ignoring Detective Hunter’s last question.

"Several times in fact."

"I hope you are certain about that fact, at least."

Julian narrows his eyes, not knowing if he is teasing him or just being an ass-hole.

Detective Hunter makes it clear which one it is when he turns around and proceeds to ignore Julian, engaging Chief Coleridge in a discussion as if he was not even there.

"Okay... Great. I'll just go then, shall I? Unless you need anything else, Chief Coleridge?" Julian asks when it is obvious that he is intruding on their little tete-a-tete.

But it is Detective Hunter than answers him, not Chief Coleridge.

He turns around to face Julian with an expression that is decidedly unfriendly.

His stare triggers a 'fight or flight' emotion in Julian's heart.

"No Mr Hart. I think we've got it from here. If we need anything more from you... you'll know it."

Julian: ‘Okay. This is clearly a case I will not be consulting on. Just as well really.’

Remembering the feelings he'd pulled up from that scrap of cloth sends a shiver down his back and that has nothing to do with the fact that Julian is still in his light running clothes.

As he jogs back to his car, he thinks it is probably for the best.

His last relationship was based more on lust than compatibility and it hadn't ended well for him.

So, even if Detective Dane Hunter was interested in him... which, clearly he is not... getting anywhere near that ‘Gorgeous Adonis' would be a bad idea.

A very bad idea indeed.

Police officer and family, old photographs by Frederick McLean Via Flickr: A set of three old (1940s?) photographs of a young Police officer, and his wife/girlfriend/sister, and father (a guess, due to the resemblance). There is no information on the photos, I purchased them for the joy and pride on their faces, I assume because he had recently become a Police officer. I also did not want them thrown in a bin if they did not sell! If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks. 📷 Any photograph I post on Flickr is an original in my possession, nothing is ever copied/downloaded from another location. 📷 -------------------------------------------------

Being remembered as the most positive person on the the British TV Programme, which shared Facial Stories from all kinds of walks of life. Edgy On Film is a Series that's all about Hollie May highlighting all parts of her life, from positive to negative from painful to emotional to beautiful to fantastic.

During Covid from year 2020 all the way to 2023 Hollie May was busy behind the scenes with her Music figuring out how to share her story, tell her story online -do it the correct way. After Releasing her first Three Debut Singles that changed her life from "Pills And Alcohol" to "The Beauty, That's Around Me" also "Left My Name" Hollie May decided to turn the chapter in her life for the better. Slowly becoming sober saying her goodbyes to clubbing life turning her life around chasing her dreams committing to it! Which was a massive change in her life being off camera for a long time she decided to focus on Edgy On Film this Series would be the first giant move. To tell her story from old/new photographs also video footage from certain times in her life producing each unique chapter, telling the stories from all different times in life.

It's a very eclectic piece of production with interesting storylines that make Hollie May the real strong song-writer she is today. ✨

These are just a few highlights from the Series that you'll be expecting to watch.

Hollie May's Appearance

To the story about her appearance how she's had 14 operations on her face from losing her right eye from being only age 4, if she didn't have these operations she wouldn't be alive today. Normalising being Facially Disfigured making it okay for everybody else that it is okay to inspire others to embrace what makes them facially different. You are not alone or on your own! That's who I am & what I'm about as an Artist of today. ⚡

Self Discovery / Education

Self discovering with friends during school/college/secondary school growing into a writer who found inspiration pretty much everywhere, found her way through everything in life during the most toughest times in her life always found a positive way-out through the darkness.

Self Expression / Portraitier

Expressing herself through her very own original self portraits through artwork on canvas - Also through Portrait Photography. Understanding your own difference learning to own it without a care! Being beautiful being bold always being true to yourself inspiring young/old men & women all walks of life to do the same.

Modelling / Infront Of Camera Lens

Becoming a young Model at the age of just 18 posing in lots of safety pins, vintage leather jackets, black pvc wearing thick make-up. Standing out from the crowd making loads of friends being invited to parties standing out never fitting in with anyone. Reinventing herself into an edgy persona kept everything as original as possible moulding herself into a powerful young woman. Zero fucks given! Bad mouth attitude with loud heavy fashion splash of rock and soul 🧷

Lap-Dancing / Writing / Owning Who You Are

Writing-songs in Strip Clubs to dancing around the Pole becoming regonised as the most different lap dancer there was, in Northamptons Strip club back in 2016/2017. Slowly in time Hollie May became extremely remembered for singing to her customers with a rare acapella if she loved you! Following along lots of flirting and money making. Hollie would dance on stage to Artists like Iggy Pop, Debbie Harry, Joan As Police Woman, James Brown, Isley Brothers many more punk rock & funk musician icons. These Artists moulded Hollie May her Lyrical work into something more meaningful special; beautiful as she would write her songs in the dressing room. Whilst either being high as hell from smoking weed and sniffing the Coco whilst dealing with other dancers who would constantly criticise Hollie May by her appearance, style & fashion sense to even trying to get under her skin for a fight creating constant conflict. Of course! Hollie doesn't give in that easily with her ambitious self focusing on the writing & dancing. This experience took Hollie further in life when it came to the stage self confidence owning everything of her own.

Joan As Police Woman How She Changed My Entire Life 🩷

Meeting Joan As Police Woman changed Hollie's life as a little girl who was going through transitioning from Primary School to Secondary, whilst battling so much Bullying back in 2006-2007 further on over the years. Joan has continuously pushed Hollie May into a big positive direction in her life which is where she is today. "I am always grateful for Joan being in my life I love her so much! Joan's Music means the world to me I'm not who I am without her Music. Joan has always been a gorgeous heartwarming best friend the love I have for her is so real extremely conditional I am not myself, without her." Words from Hollie May. Normalising being close friends with somebody who is famous & sharing stories also telling friends/new fans that their feelings matter, it's okay. Making it a normal thing to the ones who don't understand were all human right?

Ronnie Spector from The Ronettes🖤

Ronnie Spector came into my life near the very end of Covid I got very lucky & became a good friend of Ronnie's for a short amount of time, which changed my life as a song-writer. This is something that makes my heart thunder & gets me emotional yet going heads on when it comes down to being lyrical. We spoke about life, music, getting to know one another we flirted as we laughed! And I adored all of it I'll never take any of it for granted the memories I'll cherish forever. Spector also helped me / pushed me to write my first ever album straight after covid ended which was a real dream come true. Sharing the story how our friendship came about was really life changing for me as a young woman, artist, song-writer. A lover of soul music that kept me humble focused on where I am heading with the music of my own.

Writing-Songs On Canal Boat

Whilst being heavily in love with an older woman who was actually domestic, controlling, mean. The songs that came out from that time really took all of my lyrical work into a deep closed dark place looking back I am lucky I survived such a horrible time in my life. A woman who never really loved me at all who was envy over all of my self confidence, beauty so much more. Drinking cans smoking in thick weed falling in love with such heavy self destruction & so much manipulation. Letting go of all of this finding a brand new life ahead of me. Heading into a much better place for yourself 🩵

The Final of Edgy On Film 📹

End Of The Era; visiting Southwold Beach saying goodbyes to a chapter in my life that hasn't just got me here it's brought me to a much better place, reflecting on life how far I have overcome stayed focused never quit the hustle. Staying positive through the good & bad realising self worth to self value. Making better decisions whilst evolving also blossoming becoming a better woman.. it's been a real journey this colourful unique life I have lived, inspired fans from all over will just be the beauty of it 🌸

End Of Edgy On Film 🎥

This production has taught me so much over the last three years when creating it together, piece by piece of footage to photographs of parts of my life. This is my story of who I am how there is so much more to me than just my appearance and body confidence expressing myself. Everything I am to who I am becoming today it's beautiful isn't when you show who you are, how far you've came to why people look up to you in many ways as they love your music. Everything that comes from you - I'm lucky, I am grateful and blessed to be so open with all these stories of parts of my life 🎬

[Edgy On Film is Produced & Directed by Hollie May 2020-2023]

Mr Nude Brisbane 1904: a transparent petticoat

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/mr-nude-brisbane-1904-a-transparent-petticoat/

Mr Nude Brisbane 1904: a transparent petticoat

In 1904, an unfortunate crime and a lack of any clothing other than a transparent petticoat resulted in Thomas Bier becoming Mr Nude Brisbane 1904.

In the modern day, we can, of course, access nudity at any time of day or night via the World Wide Web.

Take your pick. There are dicks to be admired in all colours, shapes, and sizes.

Men post their own nude pics. Some want to boast of their horse-sized appendages. Others beg for critics to belittle their markedly more modest endowments.

How easily we forget the taboo nudity once was in our society. Even in the 1960s, wowsers complained that a life-size replica of the Statue of David on display in a Sydney department store should be clad in a figleaf.

Holy Michelangelo! Talk about more modest endowment. You’d need binoculars to get a decent squizz at the dicklet on the Renaissance master’s great marble masterpiece. I always wondered if he left the dick till last and ran out of marble.

So, back in the day, those wanting to get their jollies from images of the male form were restricted to classic art. All well and good, but it’s hard to focus on wanking among the crowds in the Sistine Chapel.

Mr Nude Brisbane 1904

But in 1904, as members of the public filed into Brisbane’s City Police Court, someone noticed that they had a clear view of Thomas Bier’s nether regions.

The Brisbane Truth were so excited they had their artist draw the nude crim’s likeness for their next edition. Thomas was a pin-up — Mr Nude Brisbane 1904!

He’d been arrested the day before for stealing a pair of trousers from a second-hand clothes dealer in Albert Street. He was wearing the pants at the time. But just before his case was heard, the arresting copper realised the pants were needed for evidence. Looking around for something to cover Thomas’s nakedness, the constable noticed a petticoat and decided that would do.

But Constable Gay (you can’t make this shit up) never noticed the petticoat he put on Thomas was transparent. As titters arose from the public gallery and the constable realised his mistake, he hustled Thomas back downstairs to the cells.

A chasmic rent in the stern shift

When they returned Thomas was attired in what the Brisbane Truth described as a pair of policeman’s unmentionables with ‘a chasmic rent in the stern shift’. (A rip in the arse.)

Which begs the question — how did the Truth reporter know what undies Queensland cops wore?

And… where did the torn underdaks come from?

Were they Constable Gay’s?

It always happens, doesn’t it?

You wear your grungiest old knickers to work, and then you have to take them off to put on a crim you accidentally clad in a transparent petticoat. Life’s a bitch!

Anyway, according to the Brisbane Truth, Thomas paid for his thieving with a stint in gaol.

“Addressing the bench, defendant asked for leniency as he had been drinking. Prosecuting, Sub-Inspector Short here put his pot on by saying that Bier was a perfect pest. He was continually drunk and waylaying people in the street. Now he will waylay no more for three months — three pantless months in Boggo-road.”

Obviously, Constable Gay wanted his crotchless long johns back.

Some real vintage Aussie nudity:

NSFW!!! Vintage photographs of Aussie male swimmers.

NSFW! Can you explain this vintage Aussie beach pic?
