Inspired by secret 5, what people or events in history that haven't yet been made into tv or film (or game) do you think would be great to see media adaptions of?

I would love an english language biopic of Julie d'Aubigny. Professional duelist and opera singer. Born to a noble, she ran away as a teenager to be with her dueling instructor/lover. Turns out she was a better dueler than he was. A girl she seduced was sent to a nunnery, so Julie burnt it down to get her out. She was pardoned by the king of France twice, once because technically the laws against dueling were only about men (she killed at least 10 dudes in duels), and once because she was just SUCH a good singer, the opera begged the king to pardon her so they could hire her.

The roasting of the Abbot of Crossraguel. Any time someone sticks a bishop on a spitroast is probably ripe for the movie treatment.

St. Olga of Kiev

I'm surprised there hasn't been a movie about John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry already, especially in the early 2000s when The Last Samurai came out. Like, Hollywood was all about doing stories about poc staring a white guy. John Brown is RIGHT THERE and he has so much action movie dialog already on the books. But yeah, I'd be 100% down with watching a mid budget R-Rated action movie about militant abolitionists. Fredrick Douglass can be the Big Good (tm). There's a weird flashback to Harriet Tubbman. Slave owners get murdered with spears. It would make 3$ at the box office.

I am all about high violence grind-house movies with a quasi-progressive spin APPARENTLY because my second nomination is Romaine-la-Prophétesse. Romaine was a black revolutionary leader during the first stages of the Haitian Resolution. They took on the female "prophetess" persona to closely align with the Virgin Mary but it's easy to see this figure as trans or otherwise non-cis in some way. They gave fiery speeches with a saber in one hand and an inverted cross on the other about how God was black and commanded they fight for their freedom. Romaine's forces conquered and held two cities for a while before all the French forces were like "Oh shit having two cities in the hands of rebel slave armies is a PROBLEM actually" and stopped fighting each other to retake those cities. Romaine escaped and history loses track of them. This figure is so cool and unusual and I would love to see some attention thrown this way. Honestly there are a ton of things about the Haitian revolution that would make some sick action movies. There's no way they wouldn't be horribly offensive to someone if made by Americans but fuck it this is my fantasy.

And now for one that wouldn't need to press against an NC17 rating: the life and times of Jack Kirby. He's a cool guy and a neat artist and he deserves WAY more credit for super hero stuff.

I've been trying to force myself into doing my hobbies in the hopes I'll enjoy them again.

Well, I got up at 5 to finish getting ready for my mock trial for this clinic I've been attending. I got back to my hotel around 3:30 and took a nap.

I found out from my mother that there are supposed to be tornadoes on Monday on my route home, so I'm planning to make the entire 9 hour drive tomorrow. So I'm resting the rest of today other than packing.

A depressive mood has gripped me and all I can do is remind myself that I have a choice (that can be made with medications) to be either a) depressed or b) anxious, and anxiety is worse.

I slept away half of it, then got upset stomach right after dinner. You tell me how it went.

I can't figure out if the vax side effects wore off early this time, or if it's just that my usual symptoms are so overwhelming that I'm not noticing little things like crushing fatigue or a slight fever or muscle aches.

Also the fic I posted that I thought was going to piss people off apparently didn't (yet), so that's good. :D

Had an appointment and other stuff this morning, tried to nap in the afternoon but it didn't work so I did a bunch of cleaning.

Pretty good! Went to the beach and got sunburned despite wearing a ton of sunscreen, but I still had a nice time.

What hobbies are you trying to force yourself into doing, nonny?

It went okay, I guess. Not the way I had hoped but it wasn't too bad. Got some gaming in, just not with other people.

So far so good! Had a bbq this afternoon and had a great time! Stuffed my face, drank a few beers, smoked some excellent weed!

Washed my cat's blanket and my towels so she'll have clean bedding and clean dry towels when I give her a bath. Also washed my clothes, but priorities, heh. Didn't get around to the bath itself, although I took a shower.

The cat hit me in the eye for pulling her off the stove while I was cooking a couple days ago, so I kind of want to get some goggles before I try and bathe her again--the last time, I didn't even get all her fleas off before she climbed up my legs, clawed her way up my torso, and launched herself off my head. I bought a new basin to (try to) make it easier to submerge her body but let her stand with her head above water, without having to waste tons of water filling the tub.

Went to two nurseries, bought some woodland and alpine strawberries at one of them. Got groceries.

I'm hoping to actually sleep tonight since last night was so noisy (helicopters, a drunk girl having an existential crisis at top volume across the street, sirens) that I didn't actually sleep until 4 am and I've been loopy all day. Going hiking in the mountains tomorrow; I haven't been in years.

Procrastination. Tiredness. Failing on all fronts. Trying to blame it on period. To be fair, I am just being lazy. :(

Wellll technically its Sunday now but... i'm staying up late, drinking soda and drawing. Life is fantastic :D

I am having a small trip tomorrow, but life was so bad lately that my anxiety levels are going through the roof. Instead of being excited I am short-tempered, annoyed that I will have to rise really early, nervous that my body will be on it's usual bullshit. I am so tired of myself

I'm sick (not the big C tough fortunately) and threw out my back which the coughing only makes worse so I'm in a lot of pain and discomfort. Got an email on Friday that I have an interview for a job I really want so I'm both anxious and happy about it. Cant really process it due to the fever though. Fortunately the interview is the Wednesday after the next so I'll hopefully be healthy until then.

More like Sunday now, due to how late this post went up. So super-duper late.
