Remember folks, if the code doesnt work after working on it for 5 hours straight.

Save the work. Close your device. Take a break and go to sleep, work on it again on the next day. Cus there’s a good chunk of a chance itll work after.

Are there any nonfiction books you'd recommend about 18th century or very early 19th century history?

yes! we have one title that will give you a broader overview of the 18th and early 19th century: Queer Enlightenments by Anthony Delaney

three titles that have a more specific focus within the 18th century:

Vicious and Immoral by John Gilbert McCurdy

Charity and Sylvia by Rachel Hope Cleves

Female Husbands by Jen Manion (spans the 18th-early 20th century)

and finally here are two titles not currently in our collection:

one is an open source title that gives a broader overview of the long 18th century: Unsettling Sexuality: Queer Horizons in the Long Eighteenth Century edited by Jeremy Chow and Shelby Johnson (https://openpub.udel.edu/projects/unsettling-sexuality)

and the other is a title that might be hard to find outside of an academic library, but the author has information about the subject on his website: Mother Clap's Molly House: The Gay Subculture in England 1700-1830 by Rictor Norton (his website https://rictornorton.co.uk/eighteen/index.htm)

thanks for writing in!

2 billion gallons water used in summer.

0.08% of US land is golf courses.

2% of UK land is golf courses.

Why is my formatting fucked up on ao3? My current fic keeps having random paragraphs that cut words in half, no matter what I do. Anyone else dealing with this?

[lemons-of-ketchuppp]

I really do love that Cass just has a portrait photo of Steph as Spoiler and was just going around showing random people it while looking for her

Hitting refresh repeatedly on ao3 because the story i posted isnt showing up

*Dick finding out Roy and Jason are together, the rest of the bats being present*

Dick, distraught: how did this happen!?!

Jason: i don’t even know, neither of us realised we were together until Kori asked what our plans were for our one year anniversary.

Dick: ?!?!?

Tim: they flirt with each other all the time, i don’t know how you didn’t expect this Dick.

Dick: I THOUGHT THEY WERE JOKING AROUND! LIKE ME AND WALLY DO!

Tim:

Jason:

Bruce: chum… you know i abhor being even remotely involved in your love life…

Bruce: but that weird yellow boy has been in love with you since you were twelve.

Dick:

Dick: EXCUSE ME?!

Tim, muttering to himself in disbelief: weird yellow boy…

Roy, wistfully looking into the distance: the flirting was a joke at first… we both used to be so happy with having sex with women.

Damian: i’m going to kill him and then myself.

Roy: it’s like… Icarus.

Jason, flatly: Roy shut up.

Roy, ignoring him, looking afar dramatically: Jay and i, we flew too close to the gay sun, and our straight wings were left ablaze.

Tim, baffled: what fucking words just came out of your mouth?

Jason: i actually think i chose him to punish myself for something.

When you think about it, the way that people ship Primehood (with Superboy Prime being the one to resurrect Jason) is basically just Destiel in another font.

The fact that Jensen Ackles has played Jason Todd makes this even more chef's kiss.

I always love AUs where Oliver, Bruce and Lex all attend the same boarding school and were in the same class and he's like the third wheel. And Lex fucking hates them because Ollie and Brucie as they insist every reporter and socialite refer to them as, paint themselves as reckless, partyboys with air and champagne bubbles between their ears who throw good money after bad when Lex knows, he fucking knows, they're actual geniuses. The clueless Tweets? The revealing clothes? The highprofile love affairs? The cringe worthy fuck ups that people would totally roast him for but noooooo the world loves those two for? It's all an act. Those business deals that cut LexCorp off at the markets aren't flukes. The way Superman just happens to know about secret dealings isn't coincidence. The way they act when nobody is watching. He's heard them discuss world issues, he's seen Bruce reading philosophy and discussing Theoretical Physics with professors, Oliver can quote Goethe and speaks three languages. Lex can't prove it. But he knows. He has to attend gala after gala, function after function, charity auction after charity auction, watching Oliver try sleep with half the room while Bruce wanders about the room looking for one of his nine thousand kids, knowing that it's an act. But he's got zero evidence and all he can do is pull out the remaining hair he has watching Bruce giggle because somebody said duty because he thought he heard doody.

Early Lesbian Film: Pierrette's Escapades (1900), Dir. Alice Guy

Pierrette's Escapades, a short film by French cinema pioneer Alice Guy, puts a lesbian twist on a typical Commedia Dell'arte plot: Pierrette attempts to court Columbina, but is rejected. Then Columbina dances with her lover, Arlequina, and kisses her.

The film was colored by hand on the nitrate stock. Unfortunately, the stock is damaged due to deterioration over time.
