Idk I’m tired of life lol and I wanted to try this https://youtu.be/EO7dt4hg5XU 

Sooo the books are here

Image
So I bought the books I said I'd read by august, but they only now arrived lol. I guess it's a challenge for september then. I began reading Remaking Manhood by Mark Greene, and it is already quite interesting. I was personally born in a family that does not stereotype gender roles: my sibilings and I were brought up equally, yet as soon as I began school I began feeling that abyss of difference between males and females. Point is, this book is a nice place to begin reflecting about gender roles, and how the way that men are brought up affects greatly their whole lives and society itself in a very negative way.  Of course, I can't say anything yet about it as I haven't finished it, but it's nice for now. It's not exactly extremely detailed, as it is a collection of articles, in particular written for the Good Men Project. I'll give a complete comment as soon as I end :)

The Three of Us (full screenplay.)

 Basically, this is the screenplay I've been working on. I edited it here on the blogger page as much as I could lol. It's about three kids, Harlow, Nathan and Roman, who have to play together some songs at the end-of-year concert of the music school they all go to. Honestly, I'd rather direct than write. I hope to find some artists and animators soon :). The Three of Us - An animated short movie SCREENPLAY BY rainmaker INT HARLOW’S ROOM - EVENING The atmosphere is cold and grey; the imperfect order of everything is something to make you go crazy. A small bird passes near the window, it then lays on a tree outside.  Harlow sits on her bed staring into space, bored; she’s been like this for quite a bit of time. INT HARLOW’S ROOM - NIGHT It’s yet another bad day, Harlow’s on the bed in a different position staring around dead annoyed, sadly. The bed is unmade this time, the room even more messy.  Some clothes are scatted around, books piled up on the floor, some torn pieces...

Death scares me, but time is worse.

It's five in the morning, I'm standing inside a (friend's) friend's house, on the top of a wild mountain, and everyone else is sleeping. Yesterday night (basically three hours ago) we tried to get drunk (I didn't manage), I am the only one that stayed up till now. In front of me are two good friends of mine, hugging each other tight while sleeping on a small, uncomfortable couch that they somehow landed on. It's beautiful how two adult boys can still hug each other as if they were nine. It's the sweetest thing I've seen in quite a while. (Aand I just saw the biggest spider ever. Hope they won't crawl over me.) Now, I don't want to beat around the bush too much. In this house once lived somebody who is now dead. My (friend's) friend's mother, as a matter of fact. Two years ago. And nobody seems to be thinking of that but me. Which is normal of course; for them, not me. So many signs of a lived house. A child's stickers on the window, h...

Artemis drawing

The other night I went with some friends to watch the stars. Of course, one of them knew anything there is to know on them, and she started sharing with us all her knowledge; as she started talking about g(r)eek gods and their relationships with the sky and stars, I just got this idea for a small drawing of Artemis, goddess of hunt and of the moon. She was such a badass, plus the moon theme is just so awesome ;))

Roman

 This is part of the script I'm writing (more or less). ROMAN - DESCRIPTION There is no exact way the two of them could ever explain what Roman was. Roman was dumb, and very much conscious of it. Roman was often materialistic, and sometimes he was a lot of a jerk. Roman got angry really easy, many things pissed him off. Roman was sweet as candy. Roman had very few close friends he acted gently around. Roman took great care of his friends. Roman was really weird sometimes. Roman was really sad sometimes. Roman had a monster of terror and desperation and apathy and anger that constantly followed him around and that he couldn’t seem to be able to get rid of. Roman couldn’t care less of his own feelings. Roman constantly tried to be better for others. Roman was free only around Nathan and Harlow. And Nathan and Harlow could never understand all that, and perhaps that was good. Still, when he went this quiet,it meant something bad: bad thoughts and bad decisions alike. Roman suddenly di...
