I Am Completely Fine In An “i Have Been Mentally Unwell For Years” Kinda Way

im freaking out in a chill and laidback.manner and unconcerned demeanor

too many frozen boys!

My bobbin-lace off the pins. Still monochrome to keep the secret of what colour it is in the remote chance my friend reads my tumblr. I wound too much thread onto the bobbins so I probably have enough to do a second one now 😃

My partner just suggested he's the dolorous Edd of The Terror, and yes, Collins kind of is, but also no. Edd's dolorous, but he's realistic, he knows his world's shit, he's frustrated that other people seem to expect his world not to be shit, he's come to terms with his shit world & expects nothing else. Edd, in a weird way, is healthy in his dolor. Where Henry Collins is *suffering* , poor fella. Both of them brought to life by incredible actors though!

my favorite part about henry collins is that he would be having a bad time in every timeline. he's your coworker that's always fighting battles. he's hitting his bong on his smoke break and having a panic attack on shift. he gets in fights w squirrels he doesn't start and does lose. you would have LOVED ssris and weed induced psychosis ‼️‼️‼️

Just in love with Trystan Gravelle here - the completely unexpected (though I might have expected it in that I did know he was Welsh) accent here! I thought he'd sound like Henry Collins but he sounds fresh off the set of Gavin and Stacy!

The cow-story scene! I'm wondering, given that (real) Jopson was lashed early in his career (was show Jopson lashed?), whether (show) Jopson is dying from the scurvy faster than some others because he's got reopened wounds all over his back. (show) Crozier saw the state of Fitzjames -- if (show) Jopson was lashed too, he'd know what the scurvy was doing to him. And he tells him a story they both know to comfort him (and this is their last not-hallucinating scene together)! A story, to say goodbye, perhaps?

Baby deserve a little smoko, as a treat!

can you guys watch my squab for me im gonna go on my smoko

You're 100% spot on here - Sumner's an addict written by someone who's never used! And very interesting take on recovery also!

So I need to babble about a contrast I noticed between two 'cold boys in boats' shows: The Terror and The North Water. So, in The North Water, Jack O'Connell is wonderful as ship's surgeon Patrick Sumner.

But, and this is a regretful but, a decision made by his character/the show's writers just straight up *busted* the show for me. He's supposedly (due to complex backstory reasons) addicted to laudanum/opium. Yet, in the third ep, he apparently decides to send *his whole supply* off with someone else, to somewhere else, and, it being the heckin' arctic, therefore loses it. I remember straight-up pausing the show to go rant to my partner "Is it this bitch's first day as a drug addict? He didn't even keep *any* on his person at all times? Come the heck on!"

Where in The Terror, after three years stuck in ice, this absolute madlad, Mr Blanky, still has his tobacco for his last smoke, on his person, at all times:

And gleefully takes it while waiting for the monsterbear to kill him. *That's* a sailor with an addiction I can believe in!

So I was calling this ellie John Bridgens, but then I started doing this

Re-naming him Jirv, obviously.
