"Evan Rachel Wood has been tapped to star alongside **Jim Sturgess** and Shinobu Terajima"

The same Jim Sturgess who played "Ben Campbell" in 21—based on real-life Asian American Jeff Ma—and who sported grotesque yellowface in Cloud Atlas? This project is so on-brand for him 👍
The many (Asian) faces of Jim Sturgess, star of the forthcoming Hiroshima drama ONE THOUSAND PAPER CRANES! Happy #APAHM
IT'S AN HONOR JUST TO BE ASIAN-ISH

First of her name.

“How do you spell that name? I’ll just put down Danielle”
If we lived in a better timeline, the coffee cup would’ve been an intentional gag by the producers with a logo that says STARK-BUCKS and combines the wolf of Stark and the stag of Baratheon

Huh. I just realized that a charitable reading of the Dany prophecy could mean:

<#GoT spoilers>

Draining the harbor of King’s Landing to stop the Golden Company, Jon dying in an ensuing battle off the east coast and Dany taking the throne pregnant with Jon’s child—named Drogo
Hinges on sun/son homophone that may not exist in Dothraki tho:

“When the sun/son rises in the west, sets in the east. When the seas go dry, mountains blow in the wind like leaves. When your womb quickens again and you bear a living child. Then he will return and not before.”
Jon being the son who has risen in the West and will set in the East, the Wall being blown down being the “mountains” and the King’s Landing harbor going dry.

Finally had a minute to read this. Lots of thoughts. First, I agree with most of it, and have been saying the same thing for years - that big splashy design firms exaggerate the value of their work re #climate, a lot. Thread.
placesjournal.org/article/design… via @PlacesJournal @joobilly
But the tone is so busy being snarky about that, and about @joobilly's idea that no landscape architects understand movement politics, that it erases an enormous amount of good work and writing by others in the field - as if we don't exist. 2/n
I said the same thing about Waldheim's version of landscape urbanism. This is turning into a theme. Are you a white guy who wants to criticize landscape architecture for not being more relevant? Try looking at the work of women in this field! HELLOOOOOOOO out there! 3/n

I've seen a few folks complain about how these new Pokémon starters all look the same. How the Gen 1 (Kanto) starters were more original and objectively 'better'.

So, I think it might be interesting to see where @Pokemon's art direction came from, and where it is now.

A thread:
Before we start though, I want to say that art is inherently a subjective medium. So, some Pokémon I adore may not be the same as the ones you adore, and that's okay.

But some rules for art design will still be applicable regardless, and I'll explain them here. So let's begin!
To start off with, we should note that Pokémon's original art creation and direction was primarily lead by one man, 'Ken Sugimori'. Many of the original Gen 1 (Red/Blue/Green) Pokémon were originally designed by him, and so a smaller learning team meant more creative control.

Please take a moment to read the attached list of actor’s names. Then read the tweet thread that follows to reveal what they all have in common. (1/21)
This list presents just a sampling of actors who have either loudly spoken out in #WoodyAllen’s defense over the past year, or have stated their refusal to denounce him, or at very least, chosen to remain neutral despite social media pressure to throw Allen under the bus. (2/21)
You might also add Rebecca Hall and Michael Caine, who initially spoke out against Allen, then did their homework retroactively, and walked back their statements. (This is why it's always good to do your homework before publicizing your opinion.) 3/21
