My dear Weed, the sweetness of his temper inclines me to love my tyrant. I had no idea that dictators were such amiable creatures.

William Henry Seward in a letter to Thurlow Weed, 14 december 1838

This whole dictator thing is adorable

I’m sorry for not posting art, art school kidnapped me to make art so I stopped being productive at all if that makes sense🫩

Recently I’m trying to be on instagram as minimal as possible for my physical and mental health but tumblr is fine cuz it’s only fandom going on…! I still find nothing to post except random bad doodles of Chase and my persona cuz I need him for mental support lmao

[johnjacklaurens]

Whatever

[habitudes-du-coeur]

Ah yes, The Great Triumvirate, AKA one hydrogen bomb (Henry Clay) vs. two coughing babies (Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun)

[clementine-kesh]

obviously there’s nothing morally wrong with the projectionist lens through which a large portion of fandom operates but it does get kind of tiring to constantly feel like. hey guys what if we stopped talking about ourselves and instead talked about the character

[clementine-kesh]

and of course a degree of projectionism can be a very useful lens in certain circumstances, such as having unique insight into a character who shares certain aspects of your own experiences. but at the end of the day you still gotta recognize that there are going to be aspects of them that diverge from yourself

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

[lakemojave]

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

He would surely keep his right hand, and let slip in a perfectly casual way how simple his childhood had been

the way Nixon and Kissinger talk about each other is very very bizarre & intriguing

[wyrm-museum]

Quote from an expert in the field:

I would characterize it this way: for 40 years Kissinger ran from Nixon. However, in his final 10 years of life he ran towards Nixon – apparently concluding his own legacy would be inseparable.

"i want them to make each other worse" i want them to have an impact on each other that's hard to define as objectively good or bad but is still sure to change the trajectory of their lives and alter their very being on a fundamental level forever
