Practice

[pencil-line-deactivated20241029]

method actor this method actor that. toshiro mifune played a guy getting shot at by arrows by getting shot at by arrows

and yeah i believe it. ^ this is the face of a guy getting shot at by arrows

[lysenkoite]

[weaselle]

[abz-j-harding]

i can't cope

[krebs-gorlon]

Corridor Crew just did a video about this! They had trained archers shoot the arrows, but they were modified and did not have arrow heads. Instead they had sharp pins, and the actor was wearing a wooden board under his armor so it could pierce through the clothing. which don’t get me wrong could still do a lot of damage - god imagine if they hit him in the face. But if you watch the scene there are still a lot of the arrows on strings (classic movie magic) and some dangle near their mark.

I started reading The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes recently and that one plot point of The Illustrious Client hit me right in the feels, man

The fact that Watson was *ready* to beat up the crap out of the guy who hurt Holmes is so sweet

I mean, look at this:

My guy was so worried :(

I love them

Need to share the most insane antique shop find of my life so far, a first edition American copy of The Return of Sherlock Holmes from 1905. I paid 20 dollars for it. Genuinely thought I was being pranked when I found it and saw the price tag

[goatedgreen]

i hate that when you try and look up shit for writing purposes it starts linking suicide hotlines and addiction advice articles like bro i just wanna know the information im not killing myself i promise. now tell me what i wanna know

[bloodstainedgauntlet]

my knight you have to live you have to get up you have to put your hand over your wound and hold it there. you have to keep walking and walking and walking because you cannot lay down yet, it’s not time. wipe the blood off your breastplate and look up into the sun. lean on your sword if you need to. lift one foot after another. get up. get up. this would be a pitiful grave.

[safety-data-sheet]

“This would be a pitiful grave” is now my new go-to when I’m sad or upset. God that’s fire

[rhinco]

i love you semicolon. no one look at my 80 word sentence

[youmynock]

I'm so proud of my 80-word sentences though and everyone should look at them and marvel at how good they are

thank u semicolon for making this possible
