Don’t rush into any kind of relationship. Work on yourself. Feel yourself, experience yourself, and love yourself. Do this first and you will soon attract that special loving other.

I will never defend the Erdem because it’s freaking fug. However, even I have to admit that they are fashionable evening gowns and are appropriate for the occasion.
This is literally resort wear being worn in a professional setting.
Yep, she’s supposedly getting training, but I don’t see it.
It’s particularly grating because it’s a CHOGM event. Yes, you can rant and rave about royal privileges all you want, BUT THE ONLY REASON CHOGM EXISTS IS BECAUSE OF THE MONARCHY. Meghan is there because Harry’s granny is head of the Commonwealth. That’s the ONLY reason.
Exactly. Somehow his family managed to crush his self-esteem to the point where he honestly thinks that this woman is the hot shit and is better at his job than he is. It’s incredible.
I don’t think his family crushed his self esteem. I think he’s just desperate to get married and start a family.

Even Lainey didn’t like what MM wore today. She gave it the “Assy Style” tag.
One of the really pleasureable aspects of George R.R. Martin’s epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire is the rich world-building that infuses his story. GRRM’s story is typical of what Tolkien called a secondary world fantasy, which refers to a consistent, fictionary world that is in contrast to reality (x). His books contain a myriad of “historical” details that give the story an immersive depth. The recent companion book The World of Ice and Fire elaborates on this fictional world and is a must for any fan of the series. The companion book allowed for an elaboration of his fictional world as there are many aspects that he hasn’t found room for in the novels.
However, there is one piece of history that often is mentioned in the novels but that isn’t really elaborated on – yet. I am speaking of the Valyrian Freehold, or more specifically its Doom. Martin has promised that the exact cause of the Doom will be revealed in future novels but the companion book offers a number of interesting details.
The Doom of Valyria plays upon a popular trope: that of a fabled (often advanced) civilization that is destroyed through a cataclysm, often brought on by human decadence or hubris.
A story setting or legendary place doesn’t necessarily have to be Atlantis per se to tap into the myth fabric, but it can be any sort of lost civilization that had great achievements and then were mysteriously lost. (TVTropes)
It has its roots in the myth of Atlantis but there are countless variations, such as Mu, Lemuria and Númenor, which is Tolkien’s version of the Atlantis myth. The Doom of Valyria is, in many respects, Martin’s version of this pervasive myth – one that may turn out to have a narrative importance for the his main story.
There’s one aspect that I find particularly fascinating about the Doom. While the exact cause of the Doom is unknown, the sad remains of the Valyrian peninsula appears to have become a place that is haunted, a dangerous place where travellers are lost and where the land is permanently blighted.
It seems as though the land itself is cursed. Therefore, I think it could be interesting to frame the Doom of Valyria and its effects in terms of a magical pollution of the land itself.
I used to want to save the world. To end war and bring peace to mankind; but then I glimpsed the darkness that lives within their light. I learnt that inside every one of them there will always be both.
The Queen’s last remaining corgi, Willow, has died at the age of 14 following a cancer-related illness. According to the Daily Mail that Her Majesty has been hit ‘extremely hard’ by the death of her last remaining corgi. The death of Willow marks the end of an era as The Queen no longer owns any corgis. However, she does still have two dorgis, Vulcan and Candy, who are corgi-dachshund…
I immediately thought of @duchessofostergotlands and her love for dogs. This is such sad news.
It is sad but remember that the Queen wants to ensure that none of her current dogs survive her, so if they go before her, I think the Queen is happy. Then when the Queen goes, she knows she is not leaving any dog behind and she’s joining them, and her parents and sister. OMG. I’m so sad right now.
I’m still not being able to use my hands for long periods. Sorry!
To the well wishers, thank you! 😉☺
For the person that submitted a screenshot from an IP (Port Chester, New York) asking if it was me: The answer is no, it isn’t me. I live in New York City, not in Rye (a city in the state of New York).
No, I wasn’t cut off from receiving/giving info because I got pissed/complained at the amount of donations from the BRF to the Grenfell Tower Survivors. Some info cannot be published.
I stopped publishing things on here and answering asks simply because some were twisting what I was saying to fulfill their dreams, ‘because is fun’. I don’t agree with this. Sorry!
As soon as I can I will get back and answer your asks, please be patient.
PS. I didn’t turn myself into a sugar, sorry! I got personality, but I wouldn’t lie about a fact just to mess with you, just because is fun or worse, because I got nothing else to do.
Take care,
NYC 😘
“Because is fun” is a very accurate description of certain bloggers.
Fresh on the heels of Ready Player One (which features cameo appearances by Batman, Harley Quinn, Batgirl and more), Steven Spielberg is ready to dive into the DC Universe proper with Blackhawk, a just-announced feature film from Spielberg, Amblin Entertainment and Warner Bros. Pictures based on the classic DC series about a squadron of WWII-era pilots. Blackhawk, which Spielberg is hoping to direct, will be his first featured centered around characters from the DC Universe.
In announcing the film, Warner Bros. Pictures Group Chairman Toby Emmerich said, “We are so proud to be the studio behind Steven Spielberg’s latest hit, and are thrilled to be working with him again on this new action adventure. We can’t wait to see what new ground he will break in introducing Blackhawk to movie audiences worldwide.”
Wait, he’s reading something on behalf of William? So this was William’s event and Harry and Meghan took it over so they could get their press?
I feel like this is the second time they’ve taken over one of Will’s events, but I can’t recall right now what the first one was.
Well, Baby Cambridge 3.0 is probably coming early next week, so I can see why they would give it to Harry because Will might have to cancel last minute.
Publicly announcing that MM is going is another thing altogether though.
Warner Bros and DC Entertainment have chosen Cathy Yan to be the director of an untitled girl gang movie, likely the next superhero film to be graced by Suicide Squad scene-stealer Harley Quinn, in the form of Margot Robbie. A deal has to be completed, but it is expected that Yan will become the second female filmmaker to join the DC club after Wonder Woman‘s Patty Jenkins, and the first female Asian director ever tapped to direct a superhero film.
Yan got the job over numerous well established male directors, and because she is taking this giant leap with just one small-budget indie movie under her belt. That would be Dead Pigs, a film that won the World Cinema Dramatic Award For Ensemble Acting at Sundance last January. Despite being a new talent, Yan’s presentation for Birds of Prey was exceptional, and Robbie held firm to her desire for this film to be directed by a woman.
This is a woman who has used her race and the race of her mother to scream about injustice.
This is also the same woman who never voiced her support or concern for any of the people who suffered the same fate in US (before and after Harry).
This woman has never done a walk, never spoken out, never learned more about any of the causes created behind those deaths.
If you find yourself saying “she’s being forced to go because she black”. My response is a) she’s not black she’s mixed and that’s not an excuse b) she claims to be independent and a feminist so she is more than capable of saying I do not feel comfortable going to this based off the fact that I’m half black.
But this is the woman who needs to uses the race card to pull sympathy, votes, followers, a love shield, and anything else for her gain. I’m not surprised, I’m more disgusted because the actress will be in full mode and crying on cue.
Diana: Does it bother
either of you that Thor straight up tries to murder Captain America in this
movie?
Ian: When? In the woods?
Diana: Yes! Guys,
this is an attempted murder. Thor is fighting Iron Man who is clearly wearing
armor, but then Cap shows up and literally just says, “Let’s stop fighting” and
Thor, having no idea the shield can stop Mjolnir, brings it down right on his
head! We should have a pile of Cap mush.
Andrew: If that had
been a regular shield Thor would have just murdered a man so hard the body
would be unidentifiable.
Ian: It would be
great to see that and then Thor is just like, “What? No! I thought you were all
super strong!”
Diana: Thor’s been to
Earth, he knows we’re mushy.
Ian: Yeah but he’s
been punching Iron Man for like ten minutes.
Diana: Iron Man is in
metal armor, Cap is in spandex! He can see the difference.
Andrew: If it was a
regular shield Cap would have been turned to powder.
Diana: What a dark
movie that would be, if Thor murdered Cap and then they all still had to work
together.
Andrew: No, just credits.
That’s the death of Captain America
and the end of the movie.
Ian: It’s just Loki up
on that mountain cheering, “Woo, I win! Nice work brother!”

OK so, as usual it’s pretty difficult for me to pick my favorite anything about Sir but…it’s probably the fact that even though he has the status he does, he “doesn’t like to be highnessed.” He just prefers to be called “sir.” So even though he’s managed well enough in his position, he still views himself as any other man, really.
SEA STORY! FUCK YEAH!
OK so this one time, in the Med, it was all dark and shit, and there was some plane(s) shootin’ at Sea Duke’s ship (I forget if they were Italian or the Luftwaffe). So Sea Duke is like “Aw hell nah fuck that noise,” and fools the plane(s) into thinking they shot up his ship by having the crew literally THROW TRASH OVER THE SIDE. JETTISON ALL THE THINGS. LT BAMF ain’t got time for ur shit, Axis Powers, he has a lady with great knorks he has to bang. Anyway, plane fell for it, fucked off, and the crew lived to break other people’s shit another day. FUCK YEAH NAVY.
