Today my job at my day job is to stay at base while my team are out and about, supply anything they might need, coordinate things for them and generally be a point of contact and I just realised…
Watching people at work talking about how they use AI to write their essays and reports and I’ve noticed…
Not only are they losing their ability to write, but to talk too. They can’t think of words. They can’t coherently explain their thoughts. They often drifts off into ‘ummm’ and lose the track completely.
They’re just not able to express themselves in any way whatsoever.
Today my job at my day job is to stay at base while my team are out and about, supply anything they might need, coordinate things for them and generally be a point of contact and I just realised…
Oh, just thinking about that bathroom fight in Fallout, how badly Ethan is hurt in that, how he has no time at all to recover but has to go straight to meet the White Widow and be evil and keep an eye on Walker and figure out what Ilsa is up to and then carefully control his reaction when he sees Lane…
And then imagining he can finally go back to the safe house and collapse on the bed as Benji, carefully and gently treats his wounds and listens to what he has to say and reassures him the plan will work, Benji can play his part, tells him he can sleep, maybe sleeps beside him, it’ll be ok, Ethan, we can do it.
The oasis of gentleness and care Benji is in Ethan’s restless violent life.
And Ethan thinking how close he came to losing this…
(And then after TFR, Ethan giving all that back to Benji)

Still sometimes think about how before TFR it was a fanon thing that Benji was a really good expert medic because he had to treat Ethan for all his injuries….
And then McQ went ‘oh let’s confirm in canon - in the angstiest way possible!’
I’m not saying he knows, but maybe something just drifted though the air at the right moment…
(That man would make an excellent angst, whump fanfic author, just saying. He feeds us so well)
Amanda Root + Ciarán Hinds in PERSUASION (1995), dir. Roger Michell
“I must go, uncertain of my fate; but I shall return hither, or follow your party, as soon as possible. A word, a look, will be enough to decide whether I enter your father’s house this evening or never.”
Rogue Nation is such a special movie for me, especially because of the Vienna Opera scene. It was really fun to check out all the locations in the film 12 years after it came out(I feel old.
Ok words at the front: there are guides of mi filming locations everywhere on the internet so this is more about my particular interest instead of a very detailed guide. Also it's gonna be very benthan biased. You have been warned.
I think I'm gonna cover this by the order they showed up in the film, so for the start we have: opera tickets.
(The nerd me would say that probably it would never be "Vienna Opera" on the flyer, if it had to be in English it should be Vienna State Opera. I wondered if it's because of license problems, but on the ticket there's clearly the logo and name. Who knows, maybe it looks nicer)
I did find a picture of a 2019 ticket that looks fairly the same.
And then the subway station! Here, it was actually a movie trickery because there are actually 2 subway stations involved here.
The first one is the Schottenring station, where the underground part of this sequence is filmed
It was really weird to go to this subway station and. not get on any train but just taking pictures everywhere.
I only realized this was the wrong side of the tunnel as I'm checking the photos now. Very sad but you get the idea
But the most iconic part of this station is probably these stunning X-shaped frames
Judging from the angle I think I was at the exact location where the camera rolls
Schottenring is an exchange station where Benji went from the purple-colored U2 line to the green-colored U4 line
This was also the wrong side of the platform. I am stupid
Which is actually very funny because he should be going the other way around! I mean, the trickery here is trying to make it look like he exited from this exact station, but if he'd just gone the other way around (from U4 to U2), it would actually be the correct way to go to the opera.
The station where Benji actually exited was the Karlsplatz station, you can see the reflection of the signs on the wall
Which is why I said if he'd gone the other way around, it would've made total sense because you can literally see he got out of the train that was actually heading for Karlsplatz XD
The actual underground part of Karlsplatz is a very cozy market sort of thing, so they probably want something more in line with the vibe of the film (like the super cool X frames
There was also a funny guide that roasted Benji for going straight across this very busy main road instead of taking the pedestrian crossing right next to this exit
And now... we are in(hacker voice
(If you are not a super spy, then there are two ways to get into the opera: either by having an opera ticket, or you can take a guided tour. You have more freedom to wander around in the building if you just get an opera ticket, and they have standing tickets every day for less than 20 euros. But the off-season is in the summer, so during that time only the guided tours are available)
And then the first thing I did was. Get to the Nice Tux™️corner.
There is one thing that isn't really obvious in the picture, and that is these two spots are SO CLOSE. The camera lenses make it look very far away but I think the direct distance can't be more than 10m. I'm pretty sure if Ethan just jumped from that place he could have landed on Benji
Also I've been telling my friends via this diagram that there's no way Ethan could escape Benji's notice unless he just hid behind this column. This will be my mental picture of this scene from now on
Another thing if you haven't noticed already... after 12 years it's still the same carpet
This staircase is slightly harder to find because it was not directly accessible from the ground floor. But very luckily, there was no trickery in filming the interior structure of the opera building (excluding everything involving the backstage), which means I was able to find this place by locating Ethan's booth first and walking backwards
This door actually leads to this booth which is not something often happens in movies
But I'm 80% sure this door Ethan went in later is actually the door to the toilet.
The lighting booth is supposed to be one floor higher; in the film it took over all of the best, most expensive central seats, where in real life the chancellor should be (which is also slightly funny if you think about it
The Ilsa corner, as I call it, is on the top floor
Which kind of explains why Ethan could find her so quick as his booth was also on the top of the building. And only now did I realize that there is some sense to the roof escape route; since his booth is on higher floors then it makes a lot of sense to go even higher up.
But as I've been there myself, I think the staircases are really a labyrinth. I think it's totally possible to escape by switching different stairs on different floors but what are you talking about this is mission impossible we are not using stairs unless we are in a car chase
I've exceeded the 30 pic limit, but another funny thing is that there's a cafe right next to the place where Ethan and Ilsa slide down. Imagine you are just having a lovely piece of Sachertorte and these two people just dropped in front of you Mary Poppins style then calmly walks away
And that's all! It was really like a dream to go to Vienna and visit all of these places that I've seen in movies for hundreds of times :'D
Manage to fall asleep on the hottest night of the year (miracle for me, who sleeps soundly) so Mother Nature sends a huge fuck-off thunderstorm to make sure I get my time of wakefulness in the middle of the night.
Nothing like being woken up from a dream of being Hippolyta by the loudest thunder crash you’ve ever heard in your life for really raising your tension levels

recently saw ppl discuss whether they put their medicines in a kitchen cabinet or a bathroom cabinet and i was shocked by the fact that many ppl said kitchen cabinet. so now i need you to reblog this and say where you keep yours
Oh! I was at his exhibition in the Tate and I went back over and over again - he creates entire houses - memories of the houses he has lived in - in thread. He created this room which had the memory of all the light switches and fans and locks and phones in that he remembered. It’s all about how our memory of our homes linger, ephemeral and delicate but still there, a shadow of a memory (at least that’s how I read it). It made me think so much of my memory of homes, the home I lived in. I took a phot or two myself, it was one of the most amazing exhibitions I’ve ever been to.
