I want a movie to make me feel like isabelle adjani in the possession subway scene what do you recommend
i mean the obvious answer would be other zulawski movies (the third part of the night, diabel, and on the silver globe i all recommend, the others i havent gotten to yet. cosmos is also a masterpiece but the vibe is different). other than that.. these are all similarly insane/chaotic movies. u didnt really specify what u meant so ill just list movies that match the same kind of vibe as possession esp the subway scene:
- satan’s brew (1976)
- la prisonnière (1968)
- nekromantik (1987) & nekromantik 2 (1991)
- the cook, the thief, his wife and her lover (1989)
- a zed and two noughts (1985)
- the boxer’s omen (1983)
- boom! (1968)
- funny games (1997)
- images (1972)
- perfect blue (1997)
- one cut of the dead (2017)
- suspiria (2018)
- tetsuo: the iron man (1989)
- un couteau dans le coeur (2018)
- maniac (1980)
- angst (1983)
also if u need warnings for any of these uhh let me know but a lot of these are transgressive so u might want to be careful.
Thinking about bi literature & how bi folks have spent decades talking about nonbinarity before the word “nonbinary” even hit common usage. Some were “femme, but sometimes wanted to be a boy,” others used odd combinations of words to describe themselves due to the lack of language for their identities. Some were gender defiant, gender outlaws, genderqueer, neither male nor female — “transgressively gendered” is my personal favorite. Anyone who thinks bi people are binary should actually read a bi-written text. Not that they would ever do that, but it would be damn entertaining to see what mental gymnastics they’ll do afterwards in a desperate attempt to prove themselves right.

8 vegetables that you can regrow again and again.
Scallions
You can regrow scallions by leaving an inch attached to the roots and place them in a small glass with a little water in a well-lit room.
Garlic
When garlic begins to sprout, you can put them in a glass with a little water and grow garlic sprouts. The sprouts have a mild flavor than garlic and can be added to salads, pasta and other dishes.
Bok Choy
Bok choy can be regrown by placing the root end in water in a well-lit area. In 1-2 weeks , you can transplant it to a pot with soil and grow a full new head.
Carrots
Put carrot tops in a dish with a little water. Set the dish in a well-lit room or a window sill. You’ll have carrot tops to use in salads.
Basil
Put clippings from basil with 3 to 4-inch stems in a glass of water and place it in direct sunlight. When the roots are about 2 inches long, plant them in pots to and in time it will grow a full basil plant.
Celery
Cut off the base of the celery and place it in a saucer or shallow bowl of warm water in the sun. Leaves will begin to thicken and grow in the middle of the base, then transfer the celery to soil.
Romaine Lettuce
Put romaine lettuce stumps in a ½ inch of water. Re-water to keep water level at ½ inch. After a few days, roots and new leaves will appear and you can transplant it into soil.
Cilantro
The stems of cilantro will grown when placed in a glass of water. Once the roots are long enough, plant them in a pot in a well-lit room. You will have a full plant in a few months.
Get your infinite food exploit out of here you cheater. People like you ruin the survival horror experience.

Two job-hunting resources that changed my life:

Alison Green’s advice works.
Alison Green got me all my interviews from 2012 onward, I am reasonably sure.
Alison Green is basically my life guide.
Mine too - she was my most visited website for the first few years of my working career, and I cannot emphasise enough how much her advice helped me navigate how to behave in a work environment. You name it, she has an answer for it. Definitely a life hack.

I feel like a lot of people don’t quite get what a butler is. The role tends to get rounded off to ‘male servant’ pretty regularly in some media, whereas actually butlers are typically not just servants but chief servants. The butler was generally in charge of either all male servants or just all servants, period, in the household of an aristocrat or other very wealthy person. This meant that butlers have often been fairly powerful and influential people, and sometimes even had a manservant or two of their own.
(Also, fun fact: Mary Roberts Rinehart, the early 20th century mystery writer who is widely credited with popularizing the whole ‘the butler did it’ trope was nearly murdered by one of her own servants, a chef whom she had passed over for promotion to butler. He came at her with a pistol, but it jammed, allowing her chauffeur time to wrestle it away and restrain him.)
You didn’t answer the key question things brings up: did she popularize the trope before or after the would-be butler tried to kill her?
according to wikipedia, before
