incredibly annoying when someone tells you to watch/listen to/read something that’s really good and you put it off for ages and then it’s really good

“My birds fly far off, nobody knows where they go to, but you see I know they are coming back, and other people don’t, that makes the difference.”

— Emily Dickinson, from To Louise And Frances Norcross, March, 1859 in “Letters Of Emily Dickinson”

Fishbourne Roman Palace's Bluesky account posted this adorably scuzzy owl mosaic for Superb Owl Sunday. I feel him very deeply, so I drew him.

i need feminism because when jesus does a magic trick it’s a goddamn miracle but when a woman does a magic trick she gets burned at the stake

His death was a mishap, almost certainly, and it is written that Prince Maekar always bitterly regretted Baelor's passing and marked its anniversary every year. Yet Baelor died, and doubtless Maekar and the realm wondered if one hedge knight was worth the loss of the Prince of Dragonstone and the Hand of the King. —writings of maester Yandel | The World of Ice & Fire

And my father ... he never thought the throne would pass to him, and yet it did. He used to say that was his punishment for the blow that slew his brother. I pray he found the peace in death that he never knew in life — Maester Aemon | A Feast for Crows

Some men will say I meant to kill my brother. The gods know it is a lie, but I will hear the whispers till the day I die. And it was my mace that dealt the fatal blow, I have no doubt. The only other foes he faced in the melee were three Kingsguard, whose vows forbade them to do any more than defend themselves. So it was me. Strange to say, I do not recall the blow that broke his skull. Is that a mercy or a curse? Some of both, I think. — A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms | The Hedge Knight
