Patchwork quilt floor!

You just know that some sweet little old Nana who has been making quilts for the last 50 years has seen this photo and gone “challenge accepted” and make a blanket with that pattern

Ok, I’ve decided I can’t leave well enough alone, but these pictures really do not do this mosaic justice. It is 9,000 square feet, and is basically patchwork spanning over 15 centuries. Here are some other pictures of the Antakya mosaic:

Also, it is not one of the largest mosaics; it is the single largest intact ancient mosaic in the world.

Julie Andrews burns the President of Warner Brothers during her Best Actress acceptance speech for Mary Poppins at the 1965 Golden Globes Perhaps one of the biggest scandals of Golden Age Hollywood was the decision by Jack Warner, president of Warner Brothers, to cast Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle in the movie adaptation of My Fair Lady instead of Julie Andrews. Julie originated the role of Eliza on Broadway and in London - which has been heralded as one of the most difficult Broadway characters of all time - for three straight years, stunning audiences around the world. To provide some modern perspective, My Fair Lady was the Hamilton of its time, selling millions of copies of the Broadway recording in a matter of months, every single Broadway and London show sold-out for its entire record-breaking run. To everyone at the time, Julie was Eliza Doolittle, so to see her passed up for the movie adaptaion sent shockwaves through Hollywood. However, because Jack passed on Julie for the role, Walt Disney was able to cast her in Mary Poppins, for which she won both a Golden Globe and an Oscar. Julie stated of the Golden Globes night: “I suddenly realized that if Jack Warner had asked me to do My Fair Lady, which I missed out on, I would never have been able to do Mary Poppins.” Her dig - deft, quick, and spoken in her classically sweet nature - took enormous courage, delivering it to the most powerful man in Hollywood in front of all his peers. A member of the audience stated: “Everybody screamed. It was like a thunderous scream, everyone was laughing [including Jack Warner, pictured above]. That was her little sweet revenge.”

story time! (bones tw)

just dislocated my knee last week on valentine’s day (😭) and holy shit was that painful. screamed in pain the entire time the ambulance was on its way, i was just hysterical in fear. you could see my kneecap sticking out three inches under my jeans.

the paramedics were actually so much more helpful than the literal hospital staff. they were able to calm me down enough to give me an IV in my hand (which literally didn’t bruise. can you imagine that. i couldn’t stand from pain and they were able to give me an IV that didn’t bruise at all.)

they had to give me ketamine which is an anesthesia drug in order to help me sit so they could get me down the stairs. it really helped with the pain. the ambulance ride wasn’t too bad i was just… dissociated and didn’t understand what was going on.

the hospital staff didn’t really… know what they were doing lol. they didn’t talk to me when i was crying in pain and just ignored me, didn’t look at me. the way they picked me up and put me on the table was. poorly executed, and to my memory they didn’t talk to me at all until they were doing x rays. super scary. i never actually saw an MD either.

but yeah that was my knee dislocation story lol
