Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fics/fanart/fanvids/fancrafts/podfics/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

The Yahoo Groups Rescue Project needs more taggers.

Paul Leni's The Last Warning (bilibili link). The copy on the Internet Archive is quite battered, this one is nicer. The website is weird for online viewing, so thank heavens for third-party tools (hehe). Leni's stuff is always nice, and I'm very curious about the sets (they were reused for The Last Performance apparently).

EDIT: Another upload. 360p. Hey, it's public domain.

Blog post about J. Storer Clouston. Featuring an omnibus edition of The Spy in Black, The Lunatic at Large, Simon and The Man From the Clouds. Conrad Veidt on the cover, never seen that specific publicity portrait. There's a message printed on this edition that he wrote (of course, someone told him to write that). Maintains "Germanisms", I hate he doesn't put the little strike on his t's.

We are halfway through the year, and I've watched Lon Chaney's Phantom twice.

Georges Méliès's Rip van Winkle synced to the operetta (YouTube link). Makes it all the more enjoyable *has never heard of Rip van Winkle in his life*

(via hanswalterconradveidt on Tumblr)

Can't get over him drinking Coca Cola. With a straw!

I dunno man. Staged photo, yeah, they all are, but it's still a good reminder that he was a human being.

No idea what Norma Shearer is doing.

Buffo <3

Am I doing this right? Am I cool with the kids?

Forever grateful to have all of you in my life. Even if we don't talk much. Also grateful for one person who isn't on here, but someplace else on-the-line. And a few people IRL as well.

Hope the positive feelings are mutual. It can be hard to tell. Learnt that the hard way.

(No reason for writing this last bit. Just wanted to let you all know <3 )

Dear Pay Dirt,

My brother and his wife recently bought a broken-down house. They asked my husband, who runs his own construction company, for a quote to fix it up. My sister-in-law brightly chimed in, “and we expect the friends and family rate.” Well, my husband immediately drew a hard line.

He responded that he would prefer not to engage in a business agreement with family, as it can lead to misunderstandings, and he recommended another company. Well, my sister-in-law completely lost her mind.

She screamed at him and said that they would never have bought the property if they knew he wasn’t going to help them. It seems that they, without any encouragement, expected him to offer his services at a significant discount and are now in a bind because they cannot afford the reconstruction and will make a huge loss if they sell.

Now my entire family is being drawn into a massively acrimonious discussion. My brother and sister-in-law are claiming we “betrayed them” and left them bankrupt. I get daily calls from my weeping mother begging my husband to reconsider, while my father has threatened to beat him up. It’s insane. I don’t want to lose my family, and I can’t ask my husband to change his mind, so what do I do?

Dear Eric: My husband and I have been estranged from our 17-year-old granddaughter for eight years. We were loving, supportive grandparents but after the mother of our granddaughter broke up with our son, the father, she stopped our granddaughter from seeing us as well.

For eight years, I have tried to keep contact with our granddaughter with gifts and cards on her birthday, Christmas and other times. I do not receive a response of any kind from her. We believe her mother forbids her from contacting us.

My question is should I continue to send cards and gifts to her? I’m ready to stop. I don’t want her to forget us but I’m very tired of attempting to reach out to her with no response.

Dear Eric: I’m married with four kids and have a sizable extended family. One son, who is in seventh grade, runs track and finished the season with personal records in his events, which also happen to place second in his school’s all-time best records.

I sent out a family text to all of our extended family raving about his achievements. This is common amongst all of the aunts and uncles. We got a load of congrats. However, my husband’s brother side-texted my eldest daughter, “tell your brother to stop being first loser.” (He did not text any “congrats” to the group text.)

My daughter showed me the text and chuckled. I’m not sure if she showed my son. I’m so deeply angry about this. I know that everyone will tell me he was joking. Or that I’m misinterpreting his meaning. I just cannot get over it.

My initial feeling is to keep my son as far away from his uncle as possible for the rest of his life. My second feeling is to call said uncle to tell him he is a complete loser himself (which would be super biting as he just got laid off, has to sell his house and downsize everything). I know I won’t do either but I am having a hard time imagining being around him this summer as our families usually get together each summer for a few days.

How do I express by complete disdain for his comments without upsetting the entire extended family? Am I being oversensitive?

Put on Nazi Agent as background noise while doing some research (even if it breaks me every time), and wondered:

Do we even know how Otto got that scar? Hmmm... plot bunnies...

That ending speech... Oh, that American hypocrisy, right?

Speaking of the ending, I keep thinking about how Otto will be sent to a concentration camp, and probably executed. Which is why it breaks my heart so much. Once again, Connie plays a character who sacrifices everything for what he thinks is right.

Hi!

This week's topic is the last movie of the Sequel trilogy, Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.

As usual: do you have any thoughts or feels about this movie? Old, new, recurring...

It's been a while since the movie came out in 2019. If you think about it... do you miss something? Either directly from the movie (a protagonist you love, a side character you wish we got more of), something related to it (going to see a SW movie in the cinema, perhaps?), or something only vaguely related?
