![]() ![]() Because in real life, I just walk into a room and go, “Nobody wants me here, should I just leave?” I was actually so nervous to do Patti Cake$ that I tried everything I could to get out of it. When I was building my stage character, I was trying to make a confident person who could step into her body and her power and feel on the edge of being alive. You’ve done some really fabulous dramatic work in projects like Unbelievable and Patti Cake$, but Somebody Somewhere represents a big leap for people who know you better as a live performer. We took little pieces from different people and elements of my life and came up with Somebody Somewhere. I’m not a trained actor, so I could use a little help. It was a real challenge for me to find a concept that felt like a good fit since my stage life doesn’t really translate neatly into what might be considered a “narrative series.” But I really wanted to layer in a lot of thematic ideas that are actually important to me in my life. When I got the deal with HBO, we were talking about which writers would be a good fit and Carolyn suggested Paul and Hannah, who I’ve known for years. ![]() She’s produced stuff like Game of Thrones and Chernobyl, so my show is a real lateral move for her.

I love singing and having that intimate connection to a crowd of people. I am kinda like my character Sam in that way-without music, I feel a little lost. I’ve honestly been really depressed without it. Vogue : How has it felt to be onstage performing for sold-out crowds again?īridget Everett: I hate to be hyperbolic, but it was cathartic. Following a triumphant return to the Joe’s Pub stage after a two-year absence, Everett spoke to Vogue about bringing Somebody Somewhere to life. After years of stealing scenes as a foul-mouthed sidekick, the 49-year old performer finally has a star vehicle that takes full advantage of her talents. Somebody Somewhere is an especially welcome coming-out party for someone who’s been preparing as long as Everett has.

My thanks to Amber Books Ltd and NetGalley for supplying a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. The fortifications at Palamidi, Nafplio, Peloponnese, Greece seems to dramatically crawl down the mountain.Ī great book to browse through and to dream of times past. It was where the Scottish crown jewels were hidden when Oliver Cromwell invaded Scotland in 1650. Dunnottar Castle, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, Scotland is perched on a headland jutting into the North Sea. ![]() The triangular Caerlaverock Castle, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland was the only British castle build in this shape. Caught on a misty day, Corfe Castle in Dorset, England, looks stunning perched in a commanding position on a steep hill in a break between the Purbeck Hills. The intricate fort at Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, India, its walls covered in sculptures depicting scenes from Hindu mythology. This collection comprises 150 stunning photographs detailing more than 100 fortifications. The structures featured here were built as early as the 6th Century BCE and as late as the 5th Century CE. It’s a pictorial journey through abandoned hill and sea forts, castles, towers and citadels from Europe to the Americas and from Africa to India and Japan. So when I spotted this book I knew it was something I’d lap up. And when I worked in Wales for a period I used to take my son to visit castles at Caerphilly and Cardiff – I’m not really sure whether this was for his education or to feed my own fascination with these structures. It’s probably the best present I ever received. It had four circular turrets, one at each corner, and a drawbridge that could be raised and lowered. When I was a boy my dad, a carpenter, made me a castle as a Christmas present. I can see myself going through it on a lazy Sunday afternoon the castles are that pretty! And the pictures inside are absolutely magnificent (to the point where I'm sorry that the cover looks like this, there are so many better options which would make this book more eye-catching).īut since I'm very much the target audience for this book, the rating is rather easy for me. That put aside I'm really considering buying this book in a physical copy. You know, this castle is on page XY, castles from Scotland are here and there. Because that's something that was really missing from the book was some sort of an index or list. If only for the sake of making it easier to look for castles in the book. Or maybe a combination of both would have been good, still maintain the time period division but also add the continental one. The book is split into five sections (Ancient Times to the Dark Ages, Early Medieval Period, Late Medieval Period, Early Modern Era, Imperial Era), and I still cannot decide if I liked it this way or if I would have preferred it to be divided based on continents. Yeah, so, that was my little TED talk about castles and ruins, back to this book. And very often looking at them or standing there imagining how it used to look like, it gives me strange sense of peacefulness. ![]() Like they do not belong to this world as if they were plucked straight from a fantasy story and left here. For some reason they have an eerie, almost ethereal feel to them. I have a confession to make I adore old castes and especially ruins. ***Advance Review Copy generously provided through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.*** With 150 outstanding color photographs, Abandoned Castles is a brilliant pictorial examination of castles, forts, keeps, and defensive fortifications from the ancient world to the end of the nineteenth century. Some are beautiful, others brutal, but each tells a story about the way we fought and defended ourselves, and how the building has survived and aged, long after the people it was built by are gone. Others, such as the Cathar Château de Queribus in southern France, stand high above peaceful coastlines, testament to the wars of the past. Many have long ceased to serve a purpose, but then, like the crusader castle Krak de Chevaliers in Syria today, their impenetrable walls become the site of more fighting centuries later. From medieval Japanese castles to Spanish colonial forts in West Africa to Norman stone keeps, the book ranges widely across history. From ancient times to the end of the nineteenth century, Abandoned Castles explores more than 100 forts, castles and defensive strongholds from all around the globe.

A Blood Type Personality Compatibilityīlood type A is best compatible with O and worst compatible with B. Unique traitįunnily, they are also said to be the worst with alcohol tolerance but also the healthiest eater among all the blood types. They even lean towards having OCD, making them worry about unnecessary things sometimes. They may also be, unfortunately, quite self-conscious. You may also find blood type A personality traits obsessive, secretive, and quite closed off overall. With the amount of sensitivity they possess, it becomes easy for them to take things personally and, thus, tend to get hurt more easily. Trusting others or expressing various emotions also doesn’t come easy to them. On the flip side, they’re also assumed to be quite sensitive and lacking in courage. They are valued for their trustworthiness as well as for how responsible and hardworking they often are. They do not trust easily, but once they do, you can rest assured they are loyal to you at a die-hard level.īecause those with blood type A are often perfectionists, they will absolutely go the extra mile to make sure everything has been done correctly and with care. Some of their best traits are how loyal and creative they are. They’re expected to be quite considerate of others and are admirably punctual and patient. This blood type is typically seen as more conservative and introverted compared to other blood types. This includes their best and worst traits and even the worst blood type compatibility. Now it’s time to go over each blood type and explain what personality is assumed from each one. The Different Korean blood type personalities ![]() During this time, it became mainstream to feature these theories in TV programs and films and even in many pop songs. In South Korea, the idea of blood type determining your personality theory was popular in the early 2000s. From there, it spread to other countries in Asia, notably South Korea and Taiwan. It caught wind in Japan, although not so much within actual medical circles. From here, a Japanese scholar picked up the framing and developed the theory of a link between personality and blood type. ![]() It was initially incepted by Nazi Germany, where studies were conducted by analyzing blood type distribution. The history of how one’s blood type can determine personality, health status, and more is quite bleak. How the Blood Type Personality Theory began Koreans even believe that a specific blood type can give important information on someone’s health status.

Why do Koreans believe that blood type can determine a person’s personality?Īssociating one’s blood type with a person’s personality has been a part of Korean culture for around a century now. However, in gauging blood type personality traits, you will only have to determine your blood type among the primary blood groups.

![]() Her rampancy had grown out of control, and it was clear Master Chief would have a tough battle ahead of him. Halo Infinite is in development for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.When we saw Cortana in Halo 5: Guardians, she was threatening to destroy anyone in the universe if they opposed her. Fans will have to wait and see if Cortana’s long history with Halo and Spartan-117 has truly come to an end. A Halo Infinite trailer stated Cortana was captured and terminated offscreen by Master Chief and a new AI known as “The Weapon” who poses as her, but the circumstances around this are mysterious enough to be a source of future revelations and developments. This fails, but as of current lore, Cortana and her Guardian forces are still at large. She still cares for the Chief, but when he proves reluctant to go along with her plan, she decides to seal him away until a point in time by which she had already won and they would not have to fight. Halo 5 made the controversial decision to bring Cortana back as a villain, now in (more or less) her right mind but using the power and resources of the borderline mystical Domain to force peace on the galaxy via an AI uprising. He still might, but not for the reasons anyone expected. It seemed like the series-defining relationship had ended, and Master Chief needed to move on. However, even at her lowest point, Cortana still sacrifices herself to stop the Didact, a rogue Forerunner. A large part of Halo 4’s story deals with this reality, eventually leading to Cortana fracturing, barely able to perform her normal functions. Something that fans noticed around the time of Halo 3 was that Cortana seemed to be falling into rampancy, a state where an AI at the end of its seven-year lifespan has its mind fracture, leading to death. Cortana can only communicate to the Chief through brief visions in the beginning of Halo 3, but is eventually rescued and stays with Master Chief stranded in deep space after the two have completed their mission of stopping the Covenant and the Flood. That's one more reason why players were so anxious to see what came after Halo 2's ending. Regardless, it made for a potent low point in the original trilogy when Cortana is captured by the Flood near the end of Halo 2. Master Chief and Cortana grew close over the course of the original Halo trilogy, with the games making it vague as to whether this was a close sibling relationship or romance. It evidently succeeded, as Cortana became popular enough that Microsoft named its Windows digital assistant after her. Bungie designed Cortana as a way to direct players through Halo’s fairly open levels while feeling like an organic element in the world that would not come off as annoying. Halsey to gather information, she was placed inside Master Chief’s armor for protection. Being an especially potent AI that worked directly with her creator Dr. Her first chronological game appearance was as a fragment that needed to be transported by the player in Halo: Reach, setting up for the events of the original game. RELATED: Every Halo Game You Need to Play Halo Infinite Cortana in the Bungie Halo TrilogyĬortana was introduced to players in Halo: Combat Evolved. It seems that Cortana will still be relevant in Halo Infinite in some way, so it’s important to remember just what Cortana’s role has been thus far. ![]() Cortana has had as much of a storied history as the unstoppable space marine himself, serving with him in countless battles even as she fell to rampancy. Joining the Spartan soldier on his journey this time are a yet-unnamed Pelican pilot and a new AI known as “The Weapon.” Notably absent is the Chief’s old AI partner Cortana, a series staple since her initial appearance in Halo: Combat Evolved. Even this far off, it really feels like Halo Infinite is a revival for the series. The Grappleshot also follows series protagonist Master Chief to the campaign, where he must face The Banished: a splinter group from the Covenant Empire, on the open-world map of the Zeta Halo. What has been seen of the multiplayer already looks promising, resembling a refined and expanded version of Halo 5’s multiplayer with an intriguing new Grappleshot ability worked in. Fans are hoping that this is a return to form for Halo, both in terms of gameplay and story. Halo Infinite is coming soon, and it’s bringing plenty of expectations with it. ![]() So, if you get successful in reaching some big numbers, you can show it off to other Snapchatters, they will probably get jealous of you.
