The Rambling Of A Maniac

I’m a WWI/WWII history geek who’s also into fantasy, sci-fi, alternate history and anime, and harbors a SLIGHT obsession with war machines and ocean liners. I also keep fish, have two dogs, a leopard gecko and a lovebird who is anything but loving. Watches mostly things older than me. Ask me anything, I get bored.

One of my new favorite things is finding images from the Jurassic Park franchise that show the dinosaurs being treated like actual actors. So here are a few of my faves, enjoy^^

Claire being directed by Steven Spielberg

Rexy apparently being calmed or coached by Stan Winston

The Spinosaurus getting a stern look from Mr. Winston. Looks like she’s complaining about the work schedule to me XD

Joe Johnston having a bit of a meeting with cast and crew^^

Touching up a Raptors makeup, lol.

Vincent D'Onofrio schmoozing with Delta between scenes XD

And one of my all time favorites, the hapless goat that Rexy gobbles up being given last minute acting tips XD

Being on Tumblr right now is the closest I’ll get to knowing what it was like on the Titanic those last moments. Some of us think this is all a drill and are still shit posting. Some are grabbing for lifeboats and are exchanging social media’s with all their mutuals. Some of us don’t even know what happened and are in a car in the luggage area still jacking off. There’s chaos. We don’t really know what’s going. Gentlemen, it has been an honor playing with you.

The RNC sent me a notice of official census material that was actually a fundraiser for the republican candidates running in the midterms. The paperwork was presented as being an official document required to be filled out by law, but it was patently false. This is corruption. This is meant to deceive people into giving data and money to a political party under the guise of nonpartisan census data. This undermines trust in the census, local government, and the democratic process. This is beyond disgusting, and I’m mailing back the form to tell the RNC how I really feel about their bullshit.

“The appeal of reading, she thought, lay in its indifference: there was something undeferring about literature. Books did not care who was reading them or whether one read them or not. All readers were equal, herself included. Literature, she thought, is a commonwealth; letters a republic.”

Currently reading: The Eternal Zero, by Naoki Hyakuta. The pain I went through to get this book was immense. It’s incredibly interesting, though sad. Two siblings discover after the death of their grandmother that their grandfather isn’t related to them by blood, and their actual grandfather died as a kamikaze pilot near the end of the war. They go on to interview his former squad mates to find out more about their real grandfather, and learn that most of them considered him a coward. My summary so far is awful, but if you can get a chance to read it I recommend.
