I just think it’s important to understand that “you’re always going to be mentally ill” isn’t the same thing as “you’re always going to be unhappy”

What is it about night walks...I looked into the orange light of someone’s window and felt the deepest sense of peace I’ve ever had

Just came across this poem ❤️

[byjove]

for some reason the idea of a caveman stubbing his toe and going “oh fuck oh shit” is so funny to me, like people have been experiencing little agonies like getting hangnails or burning their fingers while stoking the fire for hundreds of thousands of years, a dude 40,000 years ago rolling his ankle chasing a mammoth and absolutely eating shit and falling face first in front of all of his buddies and then standing up and trying to play it off…..so embarrassing

[byjove]

everyone is like “is gorg…..okay”

and gorg stands up with mud on his face and goes “don’t look at me right now”

[muntiller]

The idea of ancient children going to play with their parent's tools and breaking one only to panic and set it back in place like it never happened? Amazing. Dude getting a bruise from hitting the ground too hard after falling from a tree and lying about it? Incredible.

This is a bit more recent but I’m reminded of the archeological find of a 3000 year old pot somebody burned cheese to the bottom of and they just threw the whole thing away. Were they worried their mama was going to be upset they fucked up the pot? Was cleaning it too much work? Were they really embarrassed? I’ve totally been there. I’ve thrown away a pot I scorched too badly in the past year.

Normal People, Jane Austen, and the Romance of Walking Around by @snoopysfriendwoodstock

[jaanii]

[text description: But what isn't romantic about people going to each other's houses? And not in the "showing up on the doorstep in the rain with a boombox' type of way. I mean, the familiarity, the routine. I mean knowing where the extra toilet paper in the bathroom is, which burner on the stove doesn't work, where to park when you get there, and where the extra blankets are for when you need to sleep over. To go to another person's house, to be in their space continuously, is inherently romantic. /end text description]

Istg if the MCU makes Venom a full on villain in No Way Home right after he got all excited over finally being able to become a superhero I am going to cry

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

Happy Pride Month Eleanor Roosevelt was queer, the Little Mermaid is a gay love story, James Dean liked men, Emily Dickinson was a lesbian, Nikola Tesla was asexual, Freddie Mercury was bisexual & British Indian, and black trans women pioneered the gay rights movement.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

Florence Nightingale was a lesbian, Leonardo da Vinci was gay, Michelangelo too, Jane Austen liked women, Hatshepsut was not cisgender, and Alexander the Great was a power bottom

[saddest-faery-gothmother]

Honestly just reblogging for that last one

[sp8b8]

Probably not historically backed but fuck yes

[aphony-cree]

Eleanor Roosevelt wrote love letters to Lorena Hickok

Love letters Hans Christian Anderson wrote to Edvard Collin contain elements that appeared in The Little Mermaid, which he was writing at the same time

Several people who knew James Dean have talked about his relationships with men 

Letters and poems allude to a romance between Emily Dickinson and at least two women 

Nikola Tesla was adverse to touch. He said he fell in love with one women but never touched her and didn’t want to get married 

Freddie Mercury is well known for his attraction to men but was also linked to several women, including Barbara Valentin whom he lived with shortly before he died. Friends have talked about being invited into their bed and walking in on them having sex (documentary Freddie Mercury: The Great Pretender) 

Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera are two of the best-known activists who fought in the Stonewall riots

Florence Nightingale refused 4 marriage proposals and her letters and memoir suggest a love for women 

Leonardo da Vinci never married or fathered children, was once brought up on sodomy charges, and a sketch in one of his notebooks is 2 penises walking toward a hole labeled with the nickname of his apprentice 

Condivi said that Michelangelo often spoke exclusively of masculine love

Jane Austin never married and wrote about sharing a bed with women (Jane Austen At Home: A Biography by Lucy Worsley)

Hatshepsut took the male title Pharaoh (instead of Queen Regent) and is depicted in art from the time the same way a male Pharaoh would have been

“Alexander was only defeated once…and that was by Hephaestion’s thighs.” is a 2,000 year old quote

I want to hire you to follow me around and defend my honor with meticulous research

[infiniteglitterfall]

Here's how tired I am right now:

I went down a rabbit hole today and found out that early sexologist Havelock Ellis, who wrote one of the first books arguing for gay rights, was ace. (The book was Sexual Inversion, 1896.)

It took a solid three hours for my brain to realize that that's actually kind of a big deal, given that bigots love to pretend they'd accept aces if only we'd always been here, fighting alongside them.

[tempest-of-set-deactivated20240]

I also appreciate that Ellis and his wife Edith Lees had an unconventionally romantic and passionate relationship in what I would describe as being in the emotional and intellectual sense, though she was only sexually attracted to women and he was asexual (and he was fine with her having sexual relationships with women during their marriage too, so...a non-monogamist couple to boot). A very good illustration of the phenomenon where one’s sexual orientation and romantic orientation are not always aligned, which is something I think is more common than people realize and should be explored more. 

[digitaldiscipline]

That sound you hear is every Discworld fan’s brain going, “... wait, I recognize that name.”

[copperbadge]

My character Ellis Graveworthy also takes his name from Havelock Ellis -- a friend of mine studied him in theatre school and I worked a one-act play about him with her.

There is literally no demographic more interesting than queer religious people. Even if you never had much of a crisis in faith (like me), we are still forced to reconcile what we believe in with our own existence in a way that straight religious people, and nonreligious queer people, will never fully experience. I once spoke to a lesbian minister of a queer-centric nondenominational church who said “the god you believe in is always a reflection of self, which is why queer people see god as so much more loving and forgiving than other people do. Our god is a form of self-love and acceptance” and i will never forget that.
