really hate how so many people are aphobic, transphobic, etc without being OPEN about it. i just wanna follow some new people without having to search through their blog to make sure they dont hate me or other people for simply existing

[oldbloggoodbye]

no seriously if you hate ace people get the fuck away from me. do not even try to defend yourself. i literally do not care.

Boo hoo i'll be able to add more physical storage to my phone and be able to change out batteries if they degrade as well as all these other optional features I won't have to touch

Continuing in the trend of political cartoons depicting milquetoast moderate positions seem so much cooler and more badass than they are

[domina-honoribila]

I love how they add totally absurd things no one is asking for to make the idea look crazy. And still, I must emphasize, failing to make this look like a bad idea.

"Is this what you want? Is this ugly stupid bullcrap what you want??" the biggest loudest idiot in the room asks, holding up a picture of the hottest looking shit I've ever seen

You listen to music regularly? Why? Have you even tried quitting? Could you quit? You get music stuck in your head? Wow. You're so ruined and music brained. I bet you make your partners listen to music with you when you have sex. Music addiction has really ruined a whole generation. You know it's not realistic to expect reverb in real life, right? You're probably so desensitized that you don't even feel anything anymore when you hear a bird singing that it wants some fuck.

[paradigm-adrift]

I don't have a problem with people listening to music per se, but I do have a problem with the music industry exploiting & mistreating artists.

Personally, I abstain from all music in order to keep my hands clean but really music should just be illegal outright to protect musicians from abuse.

holy shit this person in the notes

*takes the hand of a period drama writer gently* A queen consort is not a queen regnant. A dowager queen is not a queen regnant either.

There is very little intrinsic institutional power in queenship. The power a consort, dowager, or queen mother has depends mostly on how much the reigning sovereign (usually a man) is willing to grant her. Needing a queen to serve as regent is exceptionally rare, and the regent is more often a male relative.

I know this is a bit of a bummer. I'm sorry.

[kaiserin-erzsebet]

For clarity:

Queen regnant: woman who rules in her own right, not on behalf of someone else.

Regent: Someone who temporarily assumes the powers of the monarch on account of the monarch being too young or too incapacitated to govern.

Queen consort: Woman who is married to the monarch.

Dowager queen: Woman who was married to the monarch. The monarch is dead, and she is owed support as his widow.

Queen mother: Woman who is the mother of the monarch. Usually the dowager queen, though there are exceptions if there isn't a straight line of succession.

I’m a big fan of Benvolio who goes and finds Romeo and Juliet’s bodies with the rest of the Montagues, of course, but what about Benvolio who doesn’t? What about Benvolio who sleeps through it all?

Benvolio who was up late, all alone, staring out his window at the stars for hours, wondering why Romeo didn’t say goodbye to him and trying to ignore the images of that afternoon flashing in his mind. Who fell asleep on his window seat sometime during the early hours of the morning, around when Romeo returned to Verona, hugging a pillow to his chest and wondering if he would ever see his cousin’s face again.

Who woke a few hours later to a hand shaking his shoulder. Who lifted his head to find Balthasar standing there, tears streaming down his face.

Who followed him down the stairs into the withdrawing room. Who, half-asleep, was startled to see Lord Montague crying in a chair, clutching a piece of parchment, Prince Escalus himself standing nearby, his own eyes dry, but still red. Who asked where his aunt was.

Who barely got a second to process Lady Montague’s death before her husband, unable to think straight in his grief, told him that Romeo had come home. Who watched in confusion with his heart in his throat as his uncle doubled over with another bout of tears.

Whose world stopped spinning when the prince had to be the one to tell him that Romeo had come home to Verona and killed himself.

And Benvolio had slept through it all.

The worst thing about being alive is how I'm constantly exposed to the opinions of people I cannot talk to about their opinions. And like. I WOULDN'T BE MEAN. I think I do a good job adapting my tone to the confidence level of the people whose batshit opinions I am trying to unpack. The crazier the opinion the more chill I am about it.

I just have this NEED to sit people down and work through their beliefs to try and like... extract the underlying logic. I NEED to understand. PLEASE prove to me that you've really thought this one through.

BUT YOU USUALLY CAN'T DO THAT. Partly because it's a very rude thing to demand from strangers and partly because it's usually some dead ponce who only spoke latin and french and I'm not that good at either latin or necromancy.

Other than that being alive is pretty much fine.

Dog years

Grace insisted on putting Carl's name on the most important paper of the century 🎉

[melandrops]

the aroace read of ryland grace is so personal and haunting. "you don't even have a dog." was it not enough to love the world for the sake of living in it. was it not enough to live for the thrill of discovery. was it not enough to smile at your students. was it not enough to be afraid.

rocky's crew dying from radiation exposure, something humans go to great lengths to prevent and are very scared of and grace's crew dying in their "sleep" with nobody watching, something eridians go to great lengths to prevent and are very scared of. cool book that is easy to read through your tears.
