Minstrels of a Hyaena

She is the complete man, isn't she? A man of reason and imagination; of potent passions and bright fancies. She's joyous, she's unrepentant. Her weapons are fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and armed with these she faces out the black bloody terrors of living.

Is that a giant rabbit? 👀 Nope, it’s the Patagonian mara (Dolichotis patagonum)! Weighing up to 35 lbs (15.9 kg), this long-legged rodent is built for speed. In fact, it can run faster than an Olympic sprinter—reaching speeds of up to 45 mph (72 km/h)! Found in parts of central and southern Argentina, this critter inhabits open grasslands where it spends much of its time basking in the Sun and foraging for food.

it’s a little funny that essentially in the eyes of the law joseph joestar kidnapped a 17 year old and brought him to egypt and got him killed and then just went home to new york and faced no ramifications

obviously this is AI generated slop but I keep laughing at ophelia labeled “hamlet’s brother”

[currentlycryingaboutlancelot]

very interested in the 523 likes in the corner supporting this groundbreaking interpretation of ophelia

HAMLET My brother? KING BLYSSFFSTTT No, the other Ophelia

[elodieunderglass]

Hamlet: What?

The Ghost: I am thy father's spirit,

Doom'd for a certain term to walk the night,

Not that other guy, Ophelia,

The spirit of King Blyssffstt.

Hamlet: upon my word -

This preponderance of spirits hath me full vex’d;

Which is Hamlet? Which Ophelia? Which living and which dead?

Who are we all but ghosts upon a waking stage,

Dreaming - dreamt; haunted, haunting; all unmoored -

Upon a theatre plain, of blighted vanity.

The Ghost: Mark me -

Hamlet: and now your name is Mark as well?!

There was recently a copyright infringement case in YA and I need everyone to know that the following sentence was in the legal decision:

“Hot, sexy, dangerous boys, central to virtually all young adult romance novels, cannot be copyrighted.”

[kuttithevangu]

“Regarding setting, the court held that both works taking place in Alaska high schools was not protectable because Alaska is a public place and setting a teen novel in a high school is a common genre convention.”
