Subject to Change

Eh. I'll get there eventually.

[lygrim]

Hey Dudes. I’m gonna go I think.

I’ve decided literally five seconds ago that I’m tired of Tumblr’s bullshittery, and I’m tired of wasting time on here. It’s not contributing positively to my life anymore. 

I’m gonna go ahead and make sure there’s nothing on here I wanna keep, and inactivate. It’s been fun. Take care of yourselves.

@staff Bye Felicia.

ADDITION: I don’t have much media presence. I don’t really do a lot of stuff on here, just repost aesthetic posts and doodle crap. I don’t have a twitter, I may consider setting one up and doing instagram and things like that, but my life is going on a general sharply inclined direction. I want to be making stuff and contributing positively to my own existence, and social media is, mostly, a distraction to that end. I’m not prepared to set up and maintain accounts like that right now.

I want to start leaving behind the bits of my childhood I’m no longer proud of and start growing into a stronger person. I’m excited to start making these changes.

Any fic I have on here coughFeudalHighFantasycough will be transfered to AO3 and abandoned eventually, probably. I’ll make sure what’s out there is still available though.

[lygrim]

Do you have a twitter?

I do not. If you want to find me, I have an AO3 account. My username is Lygrim, all my writing is cringey, gomen.

In the Feudal High Fantasy AU, does Megamind have a magic carpet?

Lol no. He may or may not have the Equestrinator and Spiderbot tho.

Sarah: *I’m* the Goblin Queen, bitches - you go wave your fans somewhere else.

(From Labyrinth: The Ultimate Visual History)

[tyrannousstars]

The Labyrinth commentaries are an Absolute Fucking Delight, seriously - from Goblins of the Labyrinth  to the deluxe edition DVDs, they are replete with balls-out nerdery from Froud/Henson/Lucas, over-the-top teenage delight from Jennifer Connely who, at 14, got to SLOW DANCE WITH DAVID BOWIE!!!!!!!!!…and, wonder of wonders, sheer fucking dorkiness in the person of aforementioned rock god.

Like…

-He kept stumbling on the stairs in the ballroom scene. Jennifer keeps laughing at him because, oh my fuck, you’re David Bowie, aged 40something, Rock God Supreme, stupidly beautiful, actually trained in all this shit….and my adolescent ass remembers these stairs are here, but you don’t?!?!???????/

- The script originally called for Jareth and Sarah to kiss, but David Bowie straight up refused because Jennifer Connely was a minor and he was a grown-ass adult.

- Henson wanted a famous musician to play the Goblin King and had debated casting Michael Jackson, until David Bowie came over and…hopped up onto the table, and, with a wicked gleam in his eye, pulled a bone flute out of his pocket, hopped up onto the table, and, crouching thereon, played it at him and Henson was like “that is the Goblin King right there”

- Jennifer was apparently an absolute dream to work with and they didn’t realise how dangerous some of the stunts she acted were until they saw an actual teenager, say, going down the shaft of hands

- David Bowie was TERRIFIED OF HEIGHTS.  During the Diamond Dogs tour in the 1970s, he got stuck on an elevating chair on stage, and later, in the 80s, during Glass Spider, he had an elevated prop fucking PRECIPITATELY DESCEND under him.  Nonetheless, he did a lot of the Escher Room stuff himself - not all of it, some of it is a stunt guy, but damn, for a dude with acrophobia, doing ANY of it is impressive.

- Basically Jennifer Connely and David Bowie are/were fantastic to work with, and Jim Henson, who decided of his own free will to work with a baby, a teenager, numerous chickens, and a neurotic musician, was a madman.  A magnificent madman, but a madman nonetheless.

Reblogging for this glorious comment. Thanks @tyrannousstars!

Okay, I NEEEEEED to see those.

[punsbulletsandpointythings]

The bone flute was actually made for David Bowie by Jim Henson and Brian Froud, which they gave to him when they went to ask if he’d be interested in the role. But he did then hope up on the table and totally get into character with it.

So y’all know who the choreographer for this film was, right?

(She went by her first, rather than middle, name back then)

[espadaclover]

You know what? It’s really like that sometimes.

[todaysbird]

a rare closeup of a black swift, found throughout north america and small parts of south america. swifts are rarely seen up close; they spend more of their life in air than any other species of bird - they eat, drink, mate and sleep while in flight. they are incapable of perching like other birds; they must cling to vertical surfaces.

[curlicuecal]

I had to look this up because “sleep while in flight” ????

but yeah, apparently completely true.  these birds stay aloft for as much as 10 months nonstop, feed on insects, spend more energy at night (when there aren’t warm thermals to ride) and at dawn and dusk climb to 10,000 ft altitude where the 30 min slow descent is probably when they catch their sleep.

they’re unusually long-lived for such active critters (20 yrs) and they may be limiting energy expenditure by being extremely aerodynamic and narrow bodied.  Also a single bird travels the distance of about 7 roundtrip journeys to the moon in its lifetime (>3 million miles).
