I popped awake from a dream just after midnight with someone using that title in a sentence. So I'm sitting here bleary eyed wondering if that's really a thing, and behold. (Click pix for sources)
I also just found out that full frontal is a phrase used in t-shirt printing meaning the entire front is printed/printable, not just a restricted area, like this. Good to know.
I'm going back to bed now. Yes, without telling you the rest of the dream. Yes, there was sex, but I wasn't necessarily involved. No, the full frontal shirt line someone was saying had nothing to do with the sex part because it was long over. There was driving around a west coast city stuff, hanging out at a party stuff, talking to people stuff, lots of stuff I never do in real life. It may have been one of my 'spy' dreams, as I fondly call them. Maybe I remote viewed someone's afternoon/evening in San Francisco or something. Yeah, someone who was discussing t-shirt designs, I dunno, geez guys, gimme a break. I'm going back to bed.
Here, have something to help you go back to sleep.
p.s. I blame Larry for my potato chip craving at 1 a.m.
p.p.s. My first tweet link apparently sent a bunch of you off to into the wilds of internet shopping with no explanation. Sorry about that. Always test your links, kids.
You can't go wrong with me mixing food and SCIENCE.
And then we'd have weird Pink² twitter kids or something.
Can someone pleaseset this mix to a fractal vid, thanx. Seeing Benedict's face zoom around doesn't do it for me. Again, sorry, Ben, I love you, but I neeeeeed funky spacy weird brain stuff right now. "Rapture (Avicii New Generation Extended Mix)" by DJ Fernando (eMusic) I'm having to imagine artsy floaty colorful fractal art in the back of my mind while I work instead of going deep for a few minutes into something real, so my brain is already working overtime and I just had my first coffee.
This is the day before the big Bunny turns 2 party. I still have a watermelon shark to carve and the 'ocean' cupcakes to make. The 'beach' cupcakes are already done. Oh, and homemade Oreo ice cream in little pails, to look like sand. Like this, but without the holiday color. I also picked up some real crab legs for garnish on the beach theme. I'm not hosting, there's a whole meal and decorations already being rounded up elsewhere. Big weekend.
Ok, looking for some focus. <- that's a 'fractal art animation music' search list on youtube, check it out.
Little slow, kinda educational, those of you who've never plunged into fractal animation set to music, I'm easing you in because it's likened to a faux LSD cleanse for the brain without all the horrible side effects. I mean, assuming you have time to waste because it's Friday and work sux.
This WTFness keeps popping up in suggestions. Good lord. Those of you who couldn't sit through that last one, stare at Benderbatch while the rest of us move on. I facepalmed at the intro and moved on by 20 seconds in. (Sorry Ben, I really do love you #itsnotyouitsme) (later- actually have it going on in the background, people who can carry on convos like this mystify me #aspergers One convo like this would last me a month and I wouldn't talk again for days.) (Yes, the irony is kind of hitting me.) (If you're asking "Irony?", it's ok, go back to sleep.)
Ok, take the plunge. You have been warned. If you stick with this you'll soon understand why I'd like to reset my own mix to it, like I mentioned above. I've seen fractals set to dubstep, omg rake my brain OUT, that is an abomination that just doesn't speak well of finessing brain rhythm for quality deeper thinking. Anyway, 3 hours is super overkill, I just need a few minutes and the kind of music that syncs my coils up for Thoughts, as per yesterday's posts.
If you don't get the title by the end of this post, it's ok, just free associating after a deep think.
I have been utterly obsessed with this eye for three months. Sorry, left my flash on. It's at the very end of the Sherlock ep The Blind Banker, a wonderfully apt title. Note of interest for actor spotters- Gemma Chan, who played Soo Lin Yao in this ep, now plays Anita in Humans.
This comes from a lifelong obsession with eyes in the first place, but what's bothering me is that this hint at something seems to have been dropped entirely ever since. We don't know if it was washed off, painted over, or remains all these years staring ominously at Sherlock's flat.
I dig around for other fan interpretations and explanations. This one is pretty good (just a hint of what I could be bothering you guys with). Couple of thoughts after reading that interpretation.
1- I'm irritated that Sarah never once thought to simply kick and tip her chair over after being courageous enough earlier to hit an attacker over the head. That was the worst kind of female helplessness I've seen in a long time. She was way too smart for that in every other scene. @bonenado is irritated that John couldn't hang onto her, says he likes Sarah better than Mary.
2- I subscribe to Mycroft being M here, even without having realized the soundtrack themes were supporting this. The second Shan said she appreciated the help getting into the country, I knew it had to be government.
3- The mirroring is probably why I'm obsessed with the entire series. The visual subtext about siblings speaks deeply to the horrors Mycroft finds himself caught up in. That this series could be so thorough and all-encompassing without having to drag through it with conversations explaining everything to the audience is brilliant, and I thank Moffat and staff for assuming we are intelligent. They go to great lengths, and if you like obsessing over details and editing mistakes, here is a fun wikia for you.
Anyway, the eye is a really big deal. I'm not talking about the all-seeing eye or the evil eye motif, which China doesn't have. I'm talking about being marked or tagged, a visible warning. Who did it? Shan and her people were already dead by this time. I've been a triad fan since my first Jackie Chan intro many years ago, and that eye looked more Egyptian graffiti than anything. I wound up in weird places like this and still didn't find a connection. Did Mycroft have it done? If you'd love to lose yourself obsessing over ancient symbols, knock yourself out. I was raised by a man obsessed with numerology and symbolism in prophecy, so to me this is like brain candy.
Lurkers have probably noticed I seem to avoid certain kinds of music vids. It's true I'm not into watching mushy collections of stills, especially when I'm making it obvious now that I have no interest in infatuation (asexual with prosopagnosia, sorry Benedict, love you anyway), but I have collections of music that help me think really hard. It's a sort of brain training technique. I use particular music patterns to push myself to GET TO WORK and FOCUS or to sort my moods so I won't kill people (metaphorically), and I use this mesmerizing rhythm stuff like a string to follow way deeper into my head. I don't watch them, just put my headphones on and think. iio especially is awesome for deeper thinking. But you can watch them if you want.
