Selfie update?

hello!! sorry for this super random question but since you are tumblr’s foremost bob montgomery scholar, i wanted to ask: would you know what color his eyes are? i can’t seem to get a definitive answer from the internet and his eye color varies from (colorized) poster to poster. thank you for your time, i’m sure you understand that this is important information that i need in my life.

hi!!! sorry for the extreme lapse on this, i haven’t been active lately due to Life but i am thrilled to talk about Blobert! haven’t had a chance to discuss him in ages. but anyway yeah! his eyes were a pale-to-light blue. various exposures over the years tend to overemphasize them to an almost milky color, and then of course colorizations can never quite get it true, but contrary to that they were not grey or silver. our boy was rocking very light baby blues from birth to earth! 🩵🩵🩵

JEAN HARLOW in DINNER AT EIGHT — 1933, dir. George Cukor

guys……i’m engaged 😭 i did not plan on looking like hulk hogan w the bandana but i had NO idea this was coming!!!!!! he’s been planning this for months. the effort he went to…. i dont even have words. it was like something out of a movie.

i can’t believe some of you have been on this site with me since i was 15 and depressed. i’m pretty sure i landed him with my extensive knowledge of 1930s movies where Lewis Stone looks very old so i owe a lot of this moment to the person i became when i found friendship here in 2010. if you’d told me back then that i’d be this happy one day i’d never have believed it. but truth is always stranger than fiction. can’t wait for life to get even more fun now 💞

Do you train your forearms, or have they grown incidentally?

incidental! i’ve never trained forearms even once but i have decent genetics for them from my dad (linebackers, lol).

also, they must get some good work during heavier cleans, jerks, and snatches in each pull and turnover.

ive been practicing re-racking heavy jerks as well for the last two weeks prior to this one and I’m definitely about to get some bigger forearms from that because holy to-failure fatigue, Batman 😮‍💨

excuse my dust—still moving in and such. haven’t been able to cook, meal prep, or even make a proper protein shake due to how much there is kitchen-wise to unpack. and this area has absolutely no vegan options beyond chinese takeout—thank god for bean curd tofu stir fry.

even all french fry options here are cooked in liquid cancer. (oops! i mean, fat rendered from deeply tortured and terrified animals who screamed and cried out when they died fighting for their lives to the last second even on their cute little local farm so that you can pat yourself on the back like a true leftist hero 👍)

sorry i’m a bit fired up lmao. just am so angry that this area here is specifically devoted to shunning meatless options. several restaurants even have posted on their menu that they “proudly do not offer vegan-friendly options”

like. wtf. why do you love suffering and climate death so much lmao

anyway.

back to the gym for the first time in over a week. i have no pump, no definition, no NOTHIN 🤌🤌🤌🤌 so this stir fry is about to power a 4 hour glute, back, and bicep session.

but yeah, i didn’t mean to make this an update like some influencer bc no1curr but i have been on tumblr since i was 15 and i am now 31 and my life is entering a stage of permanence and contentment that i used to only dream about as a loser teen. i hope i’ll be able to post ever-more-sporadically about a wedding and kids someday.

but for now, here we are. a lot of you have grown up with me on here and we have seen each other go through many things. it feels right to share this next step with all of you because i wouldn’t be who i am today without the classic film community i joined at 15.

tl;dr—cowabunga here we go in real life

THE GHOUL — 1933, dir. T. Hayes Hunter

a little squishier rn from PMS but still taking progress pics. and at least i don’t have to pose or flex or angle or stick out anything to show off glute gains—just gotta stand there and get my arm out the way. so that’s something.

also i deadlifted 270lb yesterday for a PR, no belt, no sumo, cramps galore, and after not having deadlifted in well over a month.

btw i always take my progress pics BEFORE the gym, so i have never once had a single pump in any of my photos lmao
