How are We Doing Today?

[(Anonymous)]

Got a big case of sad because things didn't work out one after another during the week and finally had a day to myself to cry it out in my room. But on the upside I got through a lot of videos that were on my watch later on Youtube so yay.

Re: How are We Doing Today?

Well, I woke up with my left eye swollen almost shut. I think it is probably allergies, but was not a great way to start the day. And I feel generally icky.

About to take a nap, which should improve my day.

Sorry about your sad, OP. I'm glad you were able to cry it out, though. Crying can be really cathartic. I also have spent a chunk of today watching Youtube vids. Youtube is great.

Accidentally fell asleep after my alarm went off so I slept through most of the afternoon, having breakfast at 3:30 p.m. It's dreary over here and I'm craving Chinese food but probably eating leftover rotisserie chicken.

I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad week, anon. I hope things improve soon.

Weirdly good. Health is sucking less than usual, and weather is nice, so I got a lot of housework/yardwork done in addition to doing some cosplay detail work.

Only downside is that one of my uncles (textbook example of "that boomer uncle who watches too much Fox News and is thus completely out of touch with reality") actually commented on one of my FB posts which satirically called for requirement of paternity tests and mandating men's responsibilities if they get a woman pregnant, to talk about "well that would be overreach by your corrupt government" and I have been repeatedly replying with "Yes, that's the point" and "Yes, I agree that the government should not make reproductive choices for anyone" and hoping maybe he gets it, but likely it's a lost cause.

Not great. My mother passed away early Wednesday morning, so I've been dealing with that.

Hanging in there, I suppose. Right now, in the present, I am fine. I am doing a lot of thinking about stuff to do in the ways of activism. Hoping to get off my ass soon.

I reached a point I never want to reach: it's gorgeous outside, it would be insane to spend any time inside, but I had literally nothing to do outside. aside from a walk but that was 1 hour out of six I had to waste between coffee and dinner. I don't like being bored with outside, outside is the only place I'm safe from the news and social media and other people (as in, the kinds of crowds in stores on a Saturday). Outside should be happy place, not bored place.

shitty. mostly because I was going to go over to my best friend's house today but they cancelled at the last minute and I haven't seen them in some time.

I went to the Stanford University powwow today, which is back after a two-year pandemic absence, yay! I had a buffalo fry bread taco, which was delicious, and listened to the music and watched the dances. It did my heart some good, I hadn't been to a powwow in 4 years. But there weren't nearly as many vendors as there are in "normal" years, and this was especially true of the food vendors. And a fully loaded taco is fifteen bucks now (plain fry bread was eight, ten with strawberries).

Overrated/underrated actors

[philstar22]

What actors do you think are overrated? Who do you think are underrated and should get more love?

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

There are much worse actors out there than Armie Hammer.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

Tom Cruise is wildly overrated.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

I would have sat in rapture listening to Andreas Katsulas read the phonebook. It was a sad day for the acting world when he passed away.

Overrated? Probably not the worst take in the world, but I would be super grateful is both Depp and Heard crawled away and were never seen again.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

One I was just thinking about the other day - Ruby Rose - all the characters I can think of that she's played are basically the same.

And I admit this can come down more to being type casted but... I don't feel like she really makes them that different. Feels more like they are each other's AU variant.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

Overrated: Robert Downey Jr. and Martin Freeman, for similar reasons. They both play certain types really well and I actually do enjoy some of their roles because they're good at that type. But IMO, typecasting is an issue for both and a lot of their roles feel rather samey to me. Likeable, mostly. But samey.

I miss when Kate Lonergan was an active actor. She seems to be enjoying retirement and running her florist, but I still think she is wasting her talent. She was a great kid's tv actor, and while that isn't the most prestige niche I feel it is a difficult one to nail. Same with Tony Robinson, I loved his kids tv roles (Fat Tulip's Garden, and also his reading of The Odyssey for Children) and while I like his documentary stuff, I don't think he's as good as a presenter as he was as an actor.

I've been underwhelmed by Jennifer Lawrence in most things. She's perfectly fine, but not excellent, IMO.

For underrated, the first one I thought of was Eva Green. She's a bit of a cult favorite at this point, and it's not like she isn't successful, but I don't feel like she's gotten the amount of recognition she deserves.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

Underrated: Tatiana Maslany, Alison Pill, Samantha Sloyan, Krysten Ritter, Steven Ogg, and Kit Harington (he's been great in every role except the one he's best known for)
Overrated: Alexis Bledel, Zooey Deschanel, and Jeff Daniels

I just don’t get Gary Oldman. I’ve been told he’s a great actor and maybe that’s true, but I generally don’t find him affecting, entertaining, or endearing.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[greghousesgf]

Olivia Wilde is without question the worst actress I've ever seen in my life. And I'm a big MST3K fan so I've seen fucktons of bad acting.

Re: Overrated/underrated actors

[(Anonymous)]

I'm just tired of Timothee Chalamet, though I think that's overused more than overrated?

[(Anonymous)]

Not great. My mother passed away early Wednesday morning, so I've been dealing with that.

Things that made you laugh today

[(Anonymous)]

Someone online (just a rando on a forum) described Monica Bellucci's complexion as olive brown. I was gasping for air because on what planet does that woman's complexion appear brown? Anyway, that and the American Idol auditions as horoscopes/zodiac signs made me laugh. The "Leo" audition always kills me lol.

What about you? What made you laugh in the last 24 hours?
