Steelrabbit - Just A Girl And A Blog

succession christmas special: the opening theme is just a classic christmas song in nicholas britell's style. logan gets visited by 3 ghosts, one of which is mo, a la ebeneezer scrooge. simultaneously kendall has an It's A Wonderful Life sideplot and stewy plays the angel. and shiv is NOT having the holiday spirit this year so she crafts a plan, employing mondale's help, to steal christmas. and also tom and greg have a gift of the magi sideplot. and also roman has a home alone sideplot. logan ultimately learns no real lesson but he does get connor the gift he always wanted as a kid but never got, and connor says "gee thanks pop!!" and proceeds to shoot his eye out

kaleidoscopenordic: Dolvik project revisited by our friends at @kvant.1

due to budget restrictions, season 5 of succession will be produced in my basement. starring barbie dolls, some legos, and a dream

What if the cyborg has already infiltrated your life and if the one implementing the code word so when the original returns you'll only believe them.

I think it's going to be Connor's season to shine. All his siblings are out of Daddy's good books, waystar and logen are making money movies and restructuring the trust, man's is getting married. I feel like Conner has had enough of his siblings messing things up (the rebel alliance) and is going to get his promised bag as his rightful place as the oldest son.

Teaser trailer fuck yeah let’s look at costumes!

Everybody’s favourite reprehensible people show is ready to tease us, let’s see what we can glean from the attire, shall we? The resolution is Twitter shitty, and I’ve pumped up the chroma so we can see colour themes on the blurry pile of screen caps, but let’s go anyway!

First: Team Logan. He’s still in the blue and blue squares we’ve come to recognise as being his attire of loyalty signalling. Hope you choke on your cheesecake, Logan! The Egg and the Egg Sucker got dressed together over FaceTime. Note the entire room of core yes men and women cloaked in blue, and Gerri is wearing PANTS, which is such a radical departure for her I worry for her mental health. But she’s also rocking a punk for her triple ear piercing (J Smith Cameron’s IRL ear piercing), and I’ve decided to imagine Roman talked her into that at some point. Kerry in a blue suit version of her Italy pink suit says, “Who’s got the supermax pussy grip now, Marcia? I’m bringing Business Pussy. His favourite.” I am vomiting up my lunch. That purple circle is possibly Laird! Bring back Laird! Logan also addresses his blue and grey company drones, with a beige assist from Cyd Peach.

Now let’s deal with Team Progeny:

ALERT! Roman’s wearing his Probably Fucked Gerri In An Alternate Universe YACHT SHIRT. But also a little piece of flair on his right wrist. What does it mean Miley Screaming dot gif?! I wish I could see his pants. Roman’s always been blue too, but the fact he’s holding on to his blue status despite being booted from the Waystar nest? He’s still bootleg Logan, and still connected in his heart and mind. Gerri in blue, Roman in blue. Can you feel the YEARNING? Connor in blue, no surprises there. Shiv still dragging her beige behind her from season 3, only she’s added some Kendall signature brown to indicate her emotional landscape is fucked. Kendall is still skulking in Earth tones, pretending he’s in touch with planet earth. They’re in LA and Shiv is happy about it. That pink room in (presumably) some LA house! That pink karaoke bar! Just when you thought Roman’s undershirts couldn’t get sluttier than Italy, somebody put this one on a really hot wash and now it’s so tight we have no choice but to jerk off suffer. Is he feeling constricted, or sexy? Why not both? Undershirt plus business pants including belt is basically Roman’s pyjamas, so his moody hot beverage on a balcony enjoyment tracks with that. Roman, you’d better be on the phone to Gerri (10-20% chance he is) and I’d love it if that bracelet was somehow meaningful in a wanting Gerri to love you way, but I’m not holding my breath. But your long distance couples costuming has been noted!

Bets on which song Connor makes them sing at karaoke? And how much peer pressure will it take to make Roman join in? If it’s We Are The Champions I will catapult myself into the sun. I have a feeling Gerri might be living some season 1 plot deja vu.

Bonus: Excited for Norway!

(in my own succession timeline in my head) Shivs wedding happened at the beginning of the year. She explains how Caroline guilt tripped her into having it in England during the cold for her. I think its interesting that Caroline then (later that year in the summer) chose to have her own wedding in warm and sunny Italy herself. When Roman and shiv where talking about the wedding and about their mom having a prenup, they talk about how the relationship and engagement happened so fast and they need to make sure she gets a prenup incase she's "getting swept off her feet". I wonder if in some wierd mother-daughter-competitve way, caroline wanted to one up Shivs wedding a couple of months after it happened. Caroline and Rory(who wasn't the same man she took to Shivs wedding) relationship seemed slot like shiv and Tom's relationship with Rory being more into the wedding than Caroline and being in awe of her wealth and connection to the powerful, connected and wealthy Roys (kinda like tom). In my mind I think shivr felt this back hand of a wedding so close to hers in a more romantic and warm place after being made to have it in cold England and maybe she decided to wear white to the wedding to stick it to her mother a bit

I love how the succession season three finale features none of the characters paying respect to the fact that they’re at a royal wedding. Tom and Greg had matching suits that would make you think they were both the groom. Connor proposed to Willa in front of everyone. Greg called Roman a pervert in front of a Contessa. Roman and Logan spent half the wedding away making a business deal. Half of them skip the reception. Shiv actually wore a white dress to her own mother’s wedding.

music is sooo music.. and i couldnt be happier about that

‘there wasn't enough naan so we shared the last piece’

a group of friends had a reunion after over a year since they were in medschool together. they dressed in znali, ate naan and kebab, and fed each other bites full of love. it reminds me of how I want to dress up the most, look my best and sexiest, for the most intimate dinners with those I’ve found most comfort with in life. I hope the work I create and am a part of always reminds me of that.
