Caleb: I currently have seven empty notebooks and no clue what to put in them. Suggestions?

Sending drunk Nott to do the scouting was the best idea.
Donald Duck Goes To Group Therapy For His Debilitating Executive Dysfunction And It’s Just Played Completely Straight For Like Four Pages Like What
Mads Mikkelsen is such an anomaly as an actor?? and a human being in general????
- He doesn’t remember SHIT about filming Casino Royale (he didn’t even REALIZE he was auditioning for a part in the first place, he said he just literally walked in and instantly got the job?! To the point Daniel Craig borderline interrogated him for how he got cast so easily, considering he had to undergo MULTIPLE AUDITIONS before he got cast himself??)
- He wasn’t overwhelmingly interested in NBC Hannibal’s lead role until he found out that long-time bestie Hugh Dancy was already cast as the other lead (HUGH TOO. He hyped himself up for having Mads as his co-star, forgot that decision wasn’t up to him, then sat anxiously by his phone for confirmation from the network. NERD. NERDS. BOTH OF THEM).
- “You should make a movie in Denmark!“, i.e. Mads’ drunken solution to ensure he and Hugh could hang out more often because they live in different countries. What a darling.
- According to Janice Poon, he’ll eat anything. No matter how gross. Including frigid bone marrow with a straight face.
- And then he only hopped onto Death Stranding because his son, a prolific gamer, recognized what a huge deal Hideo Kojima is and told him he had to… Carl Jacobsen Mikkelsen has the sort of power we can only dream of.
- He was pretty much entirely unfamiliar with Star Wars before he was cast as Galen Erso (I distinctly recall him grimacing in the bg during a cast interview when asked if they’ve watched their new film yet, with Ben Mendelsohn giving him a very pointed knowing smirk because he KNEW. HE KNEW MADS HADN’T SEEN IT YET-) and spent plenty of time failing quite miserably at SW trivia games with the cast.
- Then that one interview where he casually cracks a bottle of liquor open on camera. What an icon.
- And correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe a major reason he joined the cast of Dr. Strange was because he was going to be allowed to perform his own stunt and fight scenes?? I think the convo went something along the lines of “Will I get to fight?” “Ye-” “Ok”.
- His female co-stars swoon at him. He literally causes hoards of his male co-stars to seriously begin questioning their sexuality.
- If it wasn’t for his team he’d probably show up to every award show in the latest neon adidas athletic wear.
- Reminds his wife on a constant basis that she’s married to the sexiest man alive from like ten years ago or smth. I think Hanne said he even has the clipping stating so and sometimes pulls it out.
Is he even real???
Love cryptid discussions
It’s perfectly fine to not believe in God for yourself. It’s not okay to mock the people who do believe in God or act like anyone who does believe in God or the concept of God is childish/ignorant/unintelligent/uneducated. You being atheistic isn’t a sign of higher intellect or better reasoning skills. Just like being religious isn’t a sign of heightened morality or greater kindness.
The Bones of a God - 42/50
Chapter 42: Roar
Fic Summary: Once upon a time, monsters roamed the entire world, so plentiful that they needed countless numbers to fight them off. 13 years ago, that changed. Grimm died off suddenly and stopped proliferating. Now the few Creatures of Grimm that are left are too large and powerful to be taken down in “the old ways.”
That doesn’t make them any less of a threat.
The real problem comes when people decide it’s for the best that they start picking sides in a war starting anew.
Word Count: 4,495
Chapter Summary: The beast lets out a mighty roar.
Author’s Notes: Thanks for reading!
The universe was painted black, and red, and white, and gold. It was something incredible and primordial, something that hadn’t yet been changed or altered for the best purposes of humanity, or anything else.
They floated down, down, down. Past whispers of voices that were both their own but also were not. Past lives that had long since passed, past people and beings and civilizations. The world that they knew somehow both did and did not yet exist.
They floated among a feeling that was somewhere between blistering heat and bitter cold.
In the nothingness, they met.
