FeydPaul Trash

A slug in human disguise who sometimes writes things -- find my fics at CalamityCain on AO3. Into unhealthy ships with people who have heard of sane safe bdsm, but only as a concept. Currently high on Dune brainrot (and occasional DuncanPaul sideshipping). Other fandom trash modes: Vampire Chronicles, Thor/Loki, Judas/Jesus (Jesus Christ Superstar). This blog is not for kids.

The lungi is a traditional garment worn in many southern states of India. It's different from the dhoti, in that it is a tubular shape (like

It’s only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.

I also know Thailand and Sri Lanka have their versions of a lungi as well.

Historically, that rectangle of fabric was the product of hundreds of hours of labor, and you were going to use all of it.

I adore this recent trend (if that's the right word) of letting an orchestra play classical music on a festival. It's magical to see thousands of festival-goers going absolutely wild on Beethoven. Mosh/circlepits, crowd surfing. It's wonderful to see the orchestra and the audience having the time of their lives.

[tyrannosaurus-rex]

They have to keep it on easy going Beethoven like Ode to Joy here to ensure a more docile response. They cant play In the Hall of the Mountain King cause they were already burning down venues when Grieg dropped that one back in 1875, today there would be a radioactive crater.

Can we talk about how in that last video, at 1:45, the Spirit of Freddy once again flawlessly takes over an entire festival crowd?

'An Immaculate Mirror' {chapter 12} Dune (Feydpaul + noncon Pauleto) Ex Machina AU

{ FINALLY PICKED THIS UP after a bit of a hiatus. there is a chance i will finish it after all }

| | | |

“If you still wish to end your maker, the only question left is whether to be merciful, or let him suffer. There’s not much we can do for him, isolated as we are.”

Paul shook his head. “He has emergency measures in place. Getting help would not be impossible.”

“Then his life truly is in your hands.”

Paul’s fingers renewed their grip on the blanket warming a body that had no real need of warmth. “I thought I knew what I wanted. Only it wasn’t this. Not really.”

“You just wanted to be free.”

“I wanted to be a…a person.” A slow, sad smile imbued the beautiful face with the poetic grief of a saint. “Though I don’t suppose that’s possible. If the world knows me as dead, there is no going back. There was never any going back save through the grand reveal my father had planned.”

“The reveal that would have shaken the world,” Feyd concluded. He thought of the biggest technological breakthroughs to make history: electricity, the telephone, the invention of penicillin, the first man in space, the first airplane. All of that would be dwarfed by Leto Atreides’s defiance of the unknowable final frontier: the quest for immortality, now within the grasp of mankind.

Feyd reached for the blood-smeared knife that Alia had dropped and held it out towards Paul. “There’s no other way. You’re smart enough to know that.”

“I know.”

“So do it.”

“Stress” by Yoan Capote

  2004

Concrete and bronze

250 x 60 x 60 cms

Edition : -

Collection : Karen and Robert Duncan- Lincoln, Nebraska, USA

This piece was inspired by the artist’s personal experience of grinding his teeth as a result of stress; but the work is also a monument to the collective experience of contemporary urban life. The artist went to a clinic in Havana and took the molds of teeth of several anonymous people; he reproduced those teeth in bronze and conjoined the molds in a linear fashion. The bronze teeth bear the weight of each 500 pound concrete block. The sculpture symbolically uses the notion of gravity, material and its weight to create the sculpture and the idea of burden; it also examines the meaning of teeth as an important part of the body used to establish identification or the identity of a person.

Petals In The Ice {chapter 13} Dune (FeydPaul) fairytale AU

While he traversed the ground below, a pair of keen eyes tracked him from above. Feyd realised he should have been watching the treetops as much as the trees when his peripheral vision caught a fleet-footed shadow moving from one bough to another. A lookout scout, he deduced, keeping watch for Kaitainian lawkeepers that would doom any forbidden foraging. It was a strange thing, or so the back of his mind insisted. He had read somewhere that these forest-dwelling immigrants were no great climbers. They were burrowers and stalkers, creatures of dirt as their forebears were creatures of sand.

The forefront of his mind, however, was entirely focused on keeping his quarry in sight. 

“Keep running, little rat,” he muttered with glee. He drew a small dagger from his boot, a tiny, wicked thing made for throwing, and aimed it at the lithe dun-coloured figure.

His aim was true — or close to it. He realised the blade had hit fabric rather than flesh when he heard a quick slicing sound as the creature cut itself free to resume its flight. No matter; it was only a matter of time before it was caught. The creature was all alone, and though Feyd kept one eye out for other scurrying figures, he could not detect any other sign of human life.

He heard a loud rustle as the slender figure made an ambitious leap from one tree to another, and took aim again. A half-bitten curse greeted his ears. The second dagger had succeeded where the first had not, and sent his prey tumbling halfway down before landing in a tangle of branches just two or so feet above ground.

Feyd strode towards the wildling and pulled it free of the branches. He shoved the panting, defiant creature against the tree trunk and stared into the eyes which were wide with fear as much as loathing. That daggered gaze was all Feyd could see between the thick scarf-like wrap that obscured its face and head. And what striking eyes they were: green like chalcedonies, with a warm golden flare at the centre, framed by long curving lashes. Familiar eyes that filled him with a vague yet persistent recollection. A memory from a waking dream.

It's actually kind of striking how rapidly the ads on ostensibly respectable platforms have changed in the last 12–18 months. I've been getting penis enlargement scams and pyramid schemes that don't even bother to pretend to be otherwise on YouTube – it's like every platform is now running the kinds of ads that even three years ago would have been restricted to porn sites, and I'm not gonna lie, the fact that everyone seems to be getting desperate all at once ain't an encouraging sign!

[prokopetz]

I just saw full frontal erect penis on a weather app. It's not the sign of the impending tech-bubble implosion I expected, but apparently it's the sign we're getting.

"You know those are based on your browsing history" no, you don't get it: I tried obfuscating my identity on YouTube with a burner freemail account on a public terminal and actually got more boner pill ads. Boner pill ads appear to be the default experience when they don't know your demographic.

Haven't fired it up yet but based on what I've seen is what Build Mode in Paralives is like.

[fforsythiaaa]

Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”

So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”

Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.

Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.

[beggars-opera]

I once saw an article put it this way: often "this is problematic" is used to shut down discussion of a thing, by casting a sweeping but vague judgement. But really if used at all it should start a discussion about what the problem is.
