Atta boy!

^ She's absolutely gorgeous but she still looks like she's 16 years old and I feel weird thinking of her in that way.

Not saying that any of you should feel weird. Just a personal hang-up.

While we're talking about Olympians, my contribution is Gabby Thomas. She is also a Harvard grad and has a master's degree in epidemiology.

Yeah, Biles looks too much like a kid for me.

Holy smokes. Gabby Thomas was new to me, but holy hell. Wow.



I find myself pretty taken by Elizabeth Zharoff of the YouTube channel The Charismatic Voice.

Tara won her gold I see. Grade A Olympic hotty.

Cornfed Croatian Olympic water polo player Josip Vrlic. They have a position called a Hole Guard.

I've been working way too hard. This is my body if I stop caring.

My lord, Aidan Gillen only gets hotter as he ages.

Young (Stuart Alan Jones from QUEER AS FOLK (UK):

Maturing (Tommy Carcetti from THE WIRE):

Mid-period (Aberama Gold, badass of badasses in PEAKY BLINDERS:


Now:
I'm glad he has done some audio books, because I could listen to him all day -- but I prefer his "natural" accent. Don't hide that awesome combo of Dublin / London / something else I can't place, dude! Give me a call, Aidan. You can read me some Joyce or Yeats over the phone, and in return I can take you to some underground poker clubs or introduce you to some more musicians or just take you on a tour of the museum I work at and make my coworkers jealous. I'm a simple woman.
I still haven't watched GAME OF THRONES, and I'm not sure I can commit to it (I tapped out after half of season 1 because...yeah) but I HAVE watched as many of his BBC / RTE / microscopic indie films as the Internets can allow. I'm looking forward to seeing him opposite another Jodi crush, Gabriel Byrne, in the new flick about Samuel Beckett.

Aidan Gillen. My favorite (to date) is when he is a villain. But I don't care. Just gimme.

Not an OR but an AND.

Mr. Tom Hardy. Woof awoooooooo
