i’m watching trailers for upcoming movies and got to Mary Queen of Scots and margot robbie pulled off her big, noble rich bitch wig and booyyyyy. this hoe out here lookin like IT lil cousin THAT
THATS HOW THEY ALL LOOKED THEN THOUGH!
thats how all them bitches look now under all that bronzer and contour too!
nobody had hair under the wigs?? what were they doing wrong like…it’s a wig
nope! they used to lose their hair. and the white chalky face? to conceal their scars from various diseases, the makeup was made of lead and even vinager and only made the skin worse.but yeah all those “fashionable women” wore that makeup to cover up small pox. (Alot of their skin problems though…were the result of poor hygiene)
I also wanna point out her pupils, which are huge, they used belladonna if they had light eyes, to make them look dark,big and shiny.
and yeah, they wore wigs because they used to shave their hairlines waaaaay back to fake a high forehead. and well, they either shaved all of it off, or lost it because they spent their teens using urine or other chemicals to get “fair hair”. by the time they reached their 20′s and popped out a few kids (and lived) they’d lost it all.
(sorry i just know wayy too much about this period, lol)
margot robbie fucking up her own hairline to portray them old colonizers as they truly were while also undermining the euro centric beauty standards those same uglies implemented across the globe? i stan
why are star wars planets more boring than earth and our solar system like sure we’ve seen desert, snow, diff types of forest, beach, lava, rain, but like…
rainbow mountains (peru)
red soil (canada/PEI)
rings (saturn’s if they were on earth)
bioluminescent waves
northern lights (canada)
salt flats (bolivia, where they filmed crait but did NOTHING COOL WITH IT except red dust?? like??? come ON)
and cool fauna like the touch me not or like, you know, the venus flytrap.. and don’t get me started on BUGS like… we have bugs cooler than sw aliens
BASICALLY like???? come on star wars you had one (1) job where are the cool alien species
I KNOW!! I did a report on filming locations in Star Wars last year and just made a list of places that looked so surreal they could make a convincing other planet. You covered some on my list but if I could just add a couple more:
Tsingy di Bemaraha, Madagascar
Zhangye Danxia, China (similar to the Rainbow Mountains in terms of appearance)
Chocolate Hills, Philippines
Giant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland
So many missed opportunities with cool ass things on Earth, Lucasfilms smh…
Earth is effing amazing!
Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina
Lake Retba, Senegal
Tepui, Venezuela
Tianzi Mountains, China
these would make amazing Star Wars planets OR fantasy material:
Tsingy du Bemaraha, Madagascar again (but a different part)
(those are razor-sharp, if you were wondering. very little of this area has been explored because YIKES)
Lake Natron, Tanzania
(looks cool, but is alkaline enough to Kill Your Shit)
Lake Baikal, Russia
(the deepest lake in the world, seriously)
and I’ll wrap it up with Son Doong Cave, Vietnam, the largest cave in the entire world.
it puts anything Dagobah has to offer to absolute shame:
(seriously, the largest chamber is 660 feet high. you could jam a fucking skyscraper in there and still lose it)
anyway I really like caves thanks for coming to my ted talk
When I say that you bring out the best in me, I mean it. You bring out the softness I was too scared to let anyone see. You inspire me to work hard and achieve great things. You make me want to take better care of myself because now I have someone I want to shine for. You really, truly bring out the best in me.
concept: it’s a cool morning and you’re stood in the kitchen, facing away from me in nothing more than a robe. you’re spooning hot chocolate mix into our favourite mugs as the kettle reaches boiling point. i come up and hug you from behind, nestling my head against your back. the slow beat of your heart is all i think of and each time i swear i’ve never felt more at home than in this moment. you place your hands over the top of mine and we remain in this simple embrace for however long feels right. then eventually, as we begin to pull apart, i sweep your hair to one side and place a kiss at the nape of your neck. good morning darling.
