Silly sketch inspired by shitposts I saw floating around here yesterday and I wanted to draw these somewhat decent guys (I struggle to draw Arthur so bad and it shows)

I think about this like once a day

I have heard a variant on it that I really like: "You cannot hate yourself into someone you can love."

This tweet means a lot to me.

It’s probably a really cool and good sign that this post I made in 2014 is going around again, right?

Sportacus and the children watched for a long time as the black stallion grazed beneath a tree. Finally, Sportacus cautiously approached. The stallion was large, and his black coat glistened. The stallion glanced up as Sportacus stepped on a branch. Despite his surprise, the LazyTown hero had to be cautious. The horse slowly approached Sportacus as he pulled an apple from his backpack. The stallion took the apple and ate it. He immediately nudged the athlete's hand as if wanting another treat. Sportacus laughed, grabbing the reins and petting the horse's muzzle.

ive said it before and i’ll say it again not enough historical romance focuses on technicalities

[wrishwrosh]

really for this kind of thing it’s no use going to published trad romance and i should know that. the really good shit is 400k on fanfiction dot net for a heterosexual pairing you’ve never considered from a piece of media you havent thought about in years written by a bored doctoral candidate who’s read a lot of primary sources from the long 18th century

recently rediscovered my absolute favorite entry in the genre: customs and duties by tortoiseshells, which is an insane technicalityromance set in 1738 boston, ft the stuffy british navy guy from pirates of the caribbean/ofc, smuggling, puritanism in the john calvin sense, the legal realities of widowhood, several real historical governors of massachusetts, debts, accounts, and of course customs regulations

I would also like to nominate and psyche's lamp shall darkling be, a story based on the 2025 Frankenstein movie that gets into the intricacies of 1850s convent school life, the process of Catholic ecclesiastical courts verifying miracles, multiple points of mid 19th century marriage and inheritance laws pertaining to property, and also spells the word connection with an X so you know the author has been in the 19th century literature trenches

It is a truth universally acknowledged that I’ll never miss a chance to rec Town and Country by @charminglygrouped! Pride and Prejudice is already set historically but T&C engages with some of the contemporary issues the source material doesn’t touch by exploring what might change if, say, the Bennet family were South Asian. The intersection of class and racial privileges, alienation from parents’ cultures, how racism and orientalism mirrored each other in the fashions of the day (and how that is present in p&p’s use of plain vs opulent attire to signal virtue), with relevant boilerplates on every chapter, fantastic dialogue, citations to make your head spin, and a genuinely compelling relationship at the heart of it.

Mlord I appreciate the gesture, but I don't think this flower wreath you made me can replace a helmet.

The recent pink “and I choose a future” art is VERY end monologue of Trainspotting 1996 to me (choose life!) and while idk if it’s on purpose it is VERY apt

My god I HAVE watched that movie like six times, so it was likely subconsciously done - but what I DO know is that you and I are soulmates in this world... call me
