itās alwaysĀ ālet women and girls do what they wantā and neverĀ āwhy do women and girls want to go through such tremendous pain to change their physical appearance to fit into arbitrary beauty standards set by industries making billions off of their insecuritiesā

Hot take:
You can be nice and racist
You can have minority friends and be racist
You can like some immigrants and be xenophobic
Hell some of your insert blank here might even like you but that doesn't mean you don't have inherent biases and patterns of thinking that can be harmful to others.
Just fix it and keep learning.
Holly Black could have so easily fallen into the YA trap of pairing every teenage girl with a wise and mystical fae 8 times her age but no, Holly said hereās your mystical fae heās like 19 years old and heās dumb as shit
I canāt believe this woman spoiled her own book
Jude: Just donāt likeā¦ say that Iām a bitch and you donāt like me.Ā
Cardan:Ā I would never say that, not even as a joke.Ā That is not true. *to everyone at the revel.* My wife is a bitch and I like her so much!Ā She is a dynamite, five-foot, mortal bitch and sheās the best.
Time to reveal the three new papercraft artworks featured in the Illumicrate Collections box for The Cruel Prince in collaboration with Holly Black! This was such a passion project, and an amazing honor to be included in a masterfully curated box! This was a super fun project and I had an amazing time experimenting with new techniques to feature detailed illustrations in a papercraft setting. I was able to photograph the super crisp silhouettes by illuminating the background with LED lights! The Cruel Prince (gold) cover is probably my favorite of the three. Lots of hidden mild symbolisms for Jude and Cardan. The moth, representing change. Cardanās bitten everapple; tasting the forbidden fruit. (and stupidly drunk on it) One wing mantle; fallen out of the nest; abandoned. The Wicked King (teal) cover is a great transitional piece. Who is really in control? The power struggle that happens during this book is symbolically shown here: is Jude pulling Cardan down with her? Is she grabbing him for help? Is he trying to stop her? Is he trying to save her?
The Queen of Nothing (purple) was a shot in the dark with its symbolisms, (mostly pulled from the cover and with tidbits provided from Illumicrate) as I made it before I read the novel (and boy, did I hit them on the nose!). Judeās dress comes directly from the book and is inspired by Celtic wedding dresses. I think TFOTA artists are secretly cursing Holly for choosing a snake aesthetic. š That darn thing had to be drawn by hand, swirlies and all!
Each cover features a hidden creature in the black - can you spot them all?
cardan, having realised jude isn't figuring out his riddle of exile like he planned, sitting down to compose some letters:
cardan greenbriar, before doing literally anything:
Can you imagine Cardan going to the mortal world and learning thereās a whole fucking song titled āHey, Judeā
Would just be this for literally years:
Cardan: Did you have to stab him?
Jude: You werenāt there. You didnāt hear what he said to me.
Cardan: What did he say?
Jude:Ā āWhat are you gonna do, stab me?ā
The Roach, shrugging: Thatās fair.
Cardan: ha ha N O
judecardan but in the mortal world :>

man the Appalachian mountains really arenāt shit huh
The Rockies are new, young and virile and fresh from the Laramide orogeny, tall and lanky teenagers on the geological scale. the Appalachian mountains are old, formed hundreds of millions of years ago before dinosaurs walked the Earth. They are ancients, elders, witnesses to half a billion years of life coming and going. To be tall is not a virtue. To be small is not a sin. The Appalachians are eroding under the weight of time, slowly shrinking and returning to the Earth from which they sprang. Appreciate them while they are still here.
I do want to say real quick again about the age of the Appalachiansā¦
They said ābefore dinosaurs,ā but we have a cave here that began forming between 450 million to 550 million years ago.
There are no bones in that cave. No fossils. No nothing.
Thatās because this cave began forming before bones existed on land, and had only just started to exist in the ocean. Shellfish hadnāt evolved yet. Limestone, which forms many caves, was just starting to become a more prevalent rock.
The mountains arenāt older than dinosaurs. They are older than bones.
Okay, that is impressive.
