some random woman's thoughts: oh hey, he's kind of hot.
Edward Cullen: Dear Diary. Today another WHORE vies for my affection. Existence is agony.
the fact that kristen stewart and robert pattinson both started in twilight and have had similar film trajectories – gotten into small, critically acclaimed indies and received almost identical levels of critical success in that area, before moving back to more mainstream things and having very comparable levels of talent – and yet kristen is still deemed a shitty actress bc of twilight and robert is now held up by film bros who think he’s the second coming…..
it’s misogyny babes
people reblogging this saying “actually people don’t think robert is good for batman” clearly have not seen the overwhelming support for him since the trailer dropped and the people saying “actually kristen isn’t very good i’ve seen her in other things” haven’t noticed the pretty much universal critical acclaim she gets for all of her performances.

In which they win regionals with this somehow:
Ok, but I’m coming back to this cause @pipgraham and I had a 10min convo and we basically wrote an entire episode in that time, I’m pretty sure that’s exactly how the glee writer’s room operated.
-
The theme this week will be ‘Silence’. At the start of the episode Mercedes
tries belting out one of her solos and her voice cracks, they’re were relying
on her performance for regionals.
- Shue orders her to be silent
to save her voice, and as a team building exercise the team should stay silent
too, Rachel protests and Finn has the great idea to sing songs with silence in
the title all week, so everyone can be happy.
- There’s a bunch of new students
who are all ‘siblings’ at the school. Quinn and Artie are convinced they’re in
a cult.
- Shue aggressively tries to
recruit them in case Mercedes can’t perform at regionals. When they politely
decline he corners their father Carlisle, who is the new school nurse and
preaches the merits of music to him.
- Only Edward auditions in the
end and his tortured rendition of ‘Behind blue eyes’ in Gregorian chant moves
Mr Shue to tears, Tina is quaking in her shoes (her vampire fetish is stirred),
Mike is not happy.
- Shue has the galaxy brain
idea to do Gregorian chants for the competition, cause it’s never been done
before and will blow everyone away.
- They’ll wear sparkly gold
robes and sing ‘Sound of silence’ (taking their hoods off for the second song:
‘Shut up’ by the black eyed peas).
- Sue and Shue are arguing in
Emma’s office (Sue insists the siblings are clearly jocks and belong in the
Cheerios or something along those lines, never mind the fact that only Edward
joined any team in the first place), because of the shouting, it comes to light
that Emma is dealing with auditory input issues.
- Shue stews on this for most of the episode and later
he and Sue sing ‘Enjoy the silence’ to Emma. Shue gives her a ‘silence kit’:
earplugs, noise cancelling headphones, and ‘So noise hurts your
brain’-pamphlets that he printed himself, Emma is very impressed - this is the woke part of the
episode.
- Tina is
convinced Edward is a vampire and she wants him to turn her too, she sings ‘Chasing
Cars’ by Snow Patrol to him.
- Mike is co-lead at regionals
with Edward cause he wants to impress Tina, it’s a lot of tension during
rehearsals and she’s super into it, we get a glimpse of her notebook doodles
spelling out Tina Cullen-Chang under a drawing of Edward and Mike kissing
shirtless.
- Rachel tries to show Mercedes
and Mike how to warm their voices up properly and gets Kurt to sing ‘Fix you’ with her, that’s when we realise Rachel can’t harmonise.
- Meanwhile Brittany drops
random Twilight titbits; she’s seen Edward and his family playing baseball in
the woods during a storm, her aunt who’s a realtor says they don’t have any
bedrooms in their rented house, Lord Tubbington told her they can read minds.
- Santana starts wearing a
cross and makes the sign for the evil eye whenever she sees Edward.
- Kurt wants to know about his
skincare routine and gets upset cause Edward doesn’t want to tell him what he
uses.
- After a controversial win at
regionals, Edward and his family must leave, (they feel too exposed due to
Edwards fame now).
- The glee club sings ‘Time to
say goodbye’ in the auditorium for him, Tina is devastated and is sobbing
throughout.
- The last scene is Finn
bringing in the local newspaper with a group photo of them all holding the
regionals trophy. Edward is just a sparkly blur.

Rice planting. Nepal
Vibe checking. Nepal
I was curious about a source on this because OP has it tagged as “india,” while the two comments above affirm it as Nepal.
Interestingly, reverse image search brought up this photo, which appears to be a capture of the exact same moment, just from a different angle:

And a personal favourite from 2018 (in Lele village):
