Yeah, genuinely don’t know how I got them but I did.

This was about 3-4 years ago. Apparently they are transmitted by ingesting them??? But they are in cats’ and dogs’ feces? So, I don’t understand how they got into my system to begin with because I’m very hygienic and careful with these type of things.

TMI. VVV

They grow inside your intestines and come out of your asshole fully formed. And unfortunately for women, once they come out, they go to the genitalia to reproduce because it’s the perfect environment: moist and warm.

So yeah…

Think itch and urinary infection type of pain at night.

Wouldn’t wish that upon my worst enemies, honestly…

I have too many Dandy's World OCs,, but for now say hello to Bonnie the black hole (Previous known as Sol/Sola the Sun)

He kinda ended up becoming Astro's brother in my head. He has control over daydreams. Uhm, more lore under cut.

so his lore is that he worked with Astro (teaching the more sciency side of space, and being the more outgoing and "leader-like" of the two), but due to an unexpected exposure to ichor, he ended up twisted for a short period and became a black hole. He got taken down to staff only floors due to being deemed not safe to be let around guests amymore, but still useful.

After the staff left, he finally left the lower floors (what he ended up dubbing, Floor -1) since a few other toons ended up getting put down there for a reason or another, and were all curious as to what was going on upstairs. Spoiler alert; it was not good.

Yipppeeeeeeee!!!!!

Perhaps the most eye-opening detail to emerge from the camera script for The Man Out There is the meticulous discipline in effect during the "live" television production, and especially on the final day of the recording, Thursday, 9 March 1961: camera rehearsals start at 10.00 am; there is a lunch break at 12.30 and another rehearsal from 13.30 to 15.30, followed by 45 minutes of tea and make-up so that when the director calls for the tapes to roll at 18.00 sharp, cast and crew on the studio floor and in the control rooms are in position and ready to play their assigned parts. No tape stoppages are scheduled - the recording is set to last exactly one hour. 

Twenty-two minutes and forty seconds into the action, we find Camera 3 with the Russian General and his Colonel as they discuss the impending failure of their prestigious space mission (shot 72). A slow mix fades the Russian control centre to black, and from that void the space capsule, as seen by Camera 4, appears to be hurtling towards us (courtesy of the "high power zoom," shot 73). Indicating a possible passage of time, certainly a change of location, the external view of the floating craft fades again as we transition to Camera 2 and the inside of the capsule (shot 74). 

There is no room to manoeuvre in the crammed cockpit: the camera perspective reinforces the sense of claustrophobia by zooming in on the subject's face, slowly, relentlessly, past MCU distance to full CU at "regular." The illusion of the top-down view is the result of Camera 2 looking at a mirror that is mounted at an angle on the floor - because we know the three earthly axes of movement have little meaning in zero gravity, and also because we know that realistically the camera could not see the astronaut ("Nikki" in the script) through the instruments that surround him. 

The next two shots are a challenge for the vision mixer, who has to combine the images from Camera 4 shooting a view of outer space (75) and Camera 3 giving us that view as seen by Nikki on his control panel (76). The monitor-with-stars insert appears at the indicated position (HE LOOKS UP), but the shift from medium close-up (MCU, shot 74) to close-up (CU, shot 77) has already been completed at "regular" (above). Technically, therefore, we continue on shot 74 at the bottom of the page even though Cameras 3 and 4 are taking positions for the upcoming scene in the snow-bound cabin while Nikki (on Camera 2) still struggles with the cruel irony of his situation. 

Fortunately for everyone involved, the earthbound mission differs from the doomed space adventure in the actual outcome. The successful conclusion of the creative experiment to us now is a memento (thanks to the surviving film of it a material one) from a time when live television was bound by the constraints of live theatre which, fortunately for us, the young medium was still eager to replicate.

And so, at the stroke of 19.00, the tape machines would have been stopped, and the director would have instructed the crew to "strike" the sets. The Canadian cabin, the Russian Mission Control, a special effects set, and the space capsule would have been dismantled during the night. The studio would have reopened for (new) business in the morning.

Television audiences caught their first glimpse of The Man Out There on Sunday, 12 March 1961. The complex that housed Teddington Studios was demolished in September 2016. (Part 2 of 2)
