five years. for five years i've managed to avoid it because i wear my mask & keep my circle small — and now i got it because i sang in a recital *for disabled musicians* where one of the abled individuals decided to attend sick. if this sets me back to 2015 level illness i don't think i can cope 🥲

oh oh, put me in coach! 🙋🏻 in no particular order, for a price i can afford: apothecary cabinet, stained glass art for my window, edwardian style lace-up boots, zulawski's possession on dvd or blue-ray (img credits in alt)

an antique cabinet with many small, uniform drawers that have metal hardware on the front to hold a label. idk, it's a generic apothecary cabinet? found on 1stdibs

a stained glass window or wall hanging; it is round and shoes a simple landscape with mountains and water in turquoise hues, the sky is a light yellow and there'd the outlines of two birds. this was made by avalglass

a pair of black shin-height lace-up leather boots with a low-ish heel and style lines along the "nose" as well as around the whole foot and ankle, below where the lace start. they look distinctly old-fashioned. these were made by joebearboots

a blue-ray special edition of the movie possession by andrzej zulawski, starring isabelle adjani and sam neill. the cover shows a black and white still of isabelle from the film, as well as a grey rendering of the main apartment building and green and blue abstract tentacle- or flame-like shapes behind her.

gabriele tilmann jetzt neuerdings psychiaterin und kann außerdem diagnosen nach wenigen stunden stellen
(quelle: zdf)

Kurz nach seiner Ankunft wurde bei dem damals 15-Jährigen eine posttraumatische Belastungsstörung diagnostiziert. Das ist bei unbegleiteten minderjährigen Geflüchteten nicht selten. Es gebe heute aber keine Anhaltspunkte mehr auf psychische Probleme, die Auswirkungen auf die Tat gehabt haben könnten, sagte Generalstaatsanwältin Gabriele Tilmann in einer Pressekonferenz.

"es gibt keine hinweise auf islamismus, aber wir gehen von islamismus aus" ich hasse euch alle
(quelle: zdf)

Wohl religiöses Motiv

Aufgrund dessen, was der Tatverdächtige nach seiner Festnahme sagte, gehen die Ermittler von einer religiösen Motivation für die Tat aus, wie Oberstaatsanwältin Tilmann sagte. Nach seiner Festnahme habe der 24-Jährige "Allahu akbar" (Gott ist groß) gesagt und gebetet. Es gebe allerdings "keine Anhaltspunkte für eine Eingliederung des Beschuldigten in eine islamistische Organisation wie den IS", so Tilmann.

Der Tatverdächtige sei "wohl bislang eher unauffällig" gewesen, sagte Bayerns Ministerpräsident Markus Söder (CSU). Aus Sicherheitskreisen hieß es, auch ein Blick auf das Umfeld des Tatverdächtigen habe bislang keine Kontakte zu islamistischen Kreisen ergeben.

Er war religiös, betete und ging regelmäßig in eine Moschee, die laut Staatsanwaltschaft nicht für extremistische Prediger bekannt ist. Dass sich der junge Afghane als Bodybuilder leicht bekleidet in sozialen Medien zeigte, spricht eher gegen ein geschlossenes islamistisches Weltbild.

help me machete wielding scully from the nineties you're my only ho

gillian anderson as dana scully in the x-files season 7 episode nine, "the sixth extinction part 1". she's wearing a low-ish cut white or grey tanktop and an olive green, unbuttoned shirt. her hair is up with loose wavy strands framing her face. she is holding a machete and standing in front of a tent, half in night-shadows, half illuninated by artificial light. she is tense and looks around for a presumed danger. (i might be in love with her)

a picture from the same scene, this time framed a little lower and scully is looking to the side.

a big win for monster fuckers and necrophiliacs everywhere 🥰⚰️

a still from nosferatu 2024 of ellen and orlock in ellen's bedchamber, both almost entirely in shadow and illuminated by the moonlight behind them. they are standing close to abd facing each other, he has a finger under her chin and she is stretching slightly towards him with parted lips and eyes closed.

a 1517 woodcut by niklaus manuel deutsch I of death and the maiden. death, a rotting, skeletal figure with a mustache and sparse hair, is embracing the maiden, a young woman, kissing her and hiking up her skirt to touch her between her thigs. she appears to embrace him back, her free hand lightly resting on his.

it is a dramatic moment in the village and you are a horrible goose

a still from nosferatu - the vampyre (1979) of harker in the romanian tavern during his journey to dracula's castle. we see him from behind as he is seated at a table by himself, while opposite him the tables are full. all the people at those tables are staring at him. a man at the front has a goose in a little cart next to him, and the goose is just about to bite his sleeve.
