wgat did u say
Mr. Burton's eloquence on the topic is far superior to mine.
major pedant alert but you shrimply cannot lay all those deaths entirely at hamlet’s feet. a major theme of hamlet is that when the powerful want even more power, their desire to kill with impunity rebounds directly on themselves—“hoist[ed] with his own petard,” in hamlet’s own words—and we see this in virtually every death
old hamlet kills old fortinbras and takes his kingdom in an oh-so-legal underhanded way, is killed himself and has his kingdom taken in an oh-so-legal underhanded way; his attempts to underhandedly and extralegally get it back lead to its total destruction
polonius uses spycraft and manipulation to maintain an iron grasp on the royal family and his own children, ends up dying the death of a spy as both families disintegrate
whether rosencrantz and guildenstern knew they were escorting hamlet to his death comes down to the production, but they absolutely knew they were selling out a friend, and ended up killed by the very letter they were using to do it
claudius is obviously a generous poisoner who cared more about his legitimacy on the throne than caring for affairs of state, and both he and the queen who justifies his rule die by the cup he poisoned himself
laertes violated the honor of the duel by poisoning his blade, but still treated his opponent honorably, and died honorably by his own poisoned blade
and hamlet, likewise, treats both his revenge and the duel with scrupulous honor, and therefore dies honorably, but because he set aside all responsibilities to his state in favor of revenge he has to spend his dying moments seeing that state collapse
note that even though ophelia does not attempt to kill anyone but herself, she is still punished after death far more harshly than any of the murderers and hypocrites around her—old hamlet receives a nationwide funeral, polonius is buried with all the rites of the church, and the final moments of the play are hamlet receiving a soldier’s burial for murdering four, in contrast with the painfully sinned-against ophelia’s rushed, shameful non-funeral. hamlet is deeply sympathetic toward, and outraged at the contemporary religious and legal cruelty directed at, the victims of suicide, but it gives its conclusion through the fate of the other character to attempt suicide, horatio: there is no justice at all to be found in death. everyone in the play who sought justice in death got death and worse than death in return. better to be like the players, and seek for justice in truth
jkr is literally posting upskirt photos to her social media. when will it finally get through to harry potter fans that their support makes her feel confident and correct enough to do things like this
If the holocaust denialism SOMEHOW wasn't enough for you to shut up about your favourite kids book as an adult; JK Rowling just committed a sex crime IRL against a transgender woman.
When do we start to care.
the worst part of "you'll understand when you're older" is that you really do understand when you're older
The second worst part is, once you get older, you find yourself saying "you'll understand when you're older" with Full Comprehension of how fucking annoying you're being right now, but also knowing that it's all you can say.
“you haven’t gotten to this chapter of the book yet”
fake Goncharov fans don’t even realize that Scorsese did NOT direct the 1973 cult classic. he was executive producer. 🤦♀️
The actual director is Natted JWHJ0715, and they deserve credit!!!
It's Matteo JWHJ0715!!!!! Very talented director (italian mother, license plate father)
is this anything
you’ve seen project Hail Mary???? Oh my gosh I love Rocky in your style!!!
well now i just havee to draw more rocky in my style
(links // tip jar!)
also i was trying to work out if my wet beast was a cormorant or a shag so i tried googling "shag uk" and. well. that didn't go well
so then i tried "shag birds uk"
this was not an improvement
#this post is one hr old and has been on my dash #FIVE TIMES #from completely separate people #not mutuals reblogging each other #people I follow who all reblogged it from someone different#I’m fascinated
everyone wants to mock my suggestive birdwatching mishaps
My first job after graduation was in land management, and part of it was to monitor the nest boxes for occupancy. During breeding season, I'd go and check them every two weeks ish, take photos, and record species and numbers of chicks. Mostly, this meant blue tits.
Anyway, early on, I do my rounds one day and get back to my office to record the findings. As I'm looking at one of the photos, I think to myself "Hang on. These look different from the others. They have black heads, not blue, and I think maybe they are bigger. Perhaps these are great tits?"
But of course! As they were still moulting, I wasn't sure; and so, with the wisdom of the terminally stupid, I confidently opened up Google, went to an image search, and there on my work computer in my office in my brand new job, I typed in "great tit chicks."
The results I got were not what I expected. But. Should have been.
I had to IMMEDIATELY go and fess up to my new boss and be like HEY I don't know if you monitor our internet use at all but uuuhhhhhh I can explain. Fortunately she just about pissed a kidney laughing, so it was okay.
(They were indeed great tits)
‘I asked chat gpt-’ well I asked Una McCormack and she managed to make it about Garak but I didn’t really mind
Commit to the bit, I say.
everyone has a ship thats just: theyre perfect. they hate each other. theyre married. they havent spoken in 15 years. they have date nights three times a week. theyre divorced. theyre pining, its unrequited. its requited. theyre starcrossed. theyre meant to be. theyre doomed by the narrative. they love each other. theyve never held hands. they wont stop making out at parties. they cant look each other in the eye

something I really enjoy is that I've now seen like 4 or 5 variations of roughly this same video, all slightly different in their angles and timing while obviously being the exact same bunny and room, implying that this is a consistent and frequent behavior for this bunny instead of just a funny thing it did once that got caught on camera. I wish I could have as much raw unfiltered enthusiasm for anything as this little rabbit has for its dinnertime
somebody posted this Calvin and Hobbes strip and i cannot overstate just how topical this fuckin thing is
Saw a comment saying character X can't be a pervert because he's ace. Bro. Bro. Bro. BRO. BRO. BRO. BR

My favourite Adrian headcanon is that they're a biologist/zoologist who has seen so much shit, they're completely unphased by any and every alien habit of Grace's.
I mean full-on khaki-shorts-wearing, traversing-wilderness-with-nothin'-but-a-machete Adrian who yoinks snakes outta trees and pets swamp puppies and will unflinchingly dig around in elephant faeces for signs of a rare parasitic tapeworm if needed.
Oh, humans eat socially? No problem, Adrian has observed many many animals eat. Did you know that an obscure species of small underground dirt creature from the north side of Erid also eats socially? Adrian can give you a not-so-short presentation on them.
Oh, the human has no external carapace and so its internal sounds are absurdly loud, wet and off-putting? No problem, Adrian was just conducting an expedition last month researching the incredible eridian animal, the Wet Loud Worm from the south-east region of Wet Loud Wormland. They're desensitised, it's fine.
Oh, Grace leaks often from many orifices and it can be a bit of a learning curve to get used to? No problem for Adrian, see Wet Loud Worm paragraph again!
Meanwhile, Rocky is bewildered as to how he's managed to third-wheel both of his relationships, because both Adrian and Grace are nerds who nerd out about things, and Adrian is shaking in their carapace with enthusiasm to learn more about human culture and biology, not to mention everything about earth animals. And yeah, sure, Grace might be a molecular biologist, but he'll be damned if he'll pass up an opportunity to learn about alien fauna from a fellow scientist, and yes, Adrian, he'd love to hear about the small underground dirt creature from the north side of Erid, and he's so excited to learn more about the Wet Loud Worm, do go on.
Record heat waves every year are the kinda thing you see in news clippings in the background of a post apocalyptic movie's intro.
The kinda things designed to make the audience wonder "What happened? What caused this?"
You're not allowed to ask those questions in the US, because the actual answers are bad for the business interests of the oligarchs in charge.
