Shoutout to all my ladies who are recognizing themselves as creatives, artists, writers, painters, poets, sculptors, songwriters, illustrators.. shoutout to all the ladies awakening to their own creativity and understanding we’re not just muses we are living art and artists and have space to express this art. We’re releasing the need to ask for permission, we are doing what we’ve dreamed of because we dreamed it and it’s ours.

This is the year we publish our work! The year we no longer allow perfection and comparison to halt our creative goals, it is the year we prioritize progress over perfection.

I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.

Patroclus and Achilles

A feeling would come. it was almost like fear, in the way it filled me.

— When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.

Alexander the Great (2004) doing what Troy (2004) was too afraid to do. Twice.

“His fingers touched the strings, and all my thoughts were displaced. The sound was pure and sweet as water, bright as lemons. It was like no music I had ever heard before. It had warmth as a fire does, a texture and weight like polished ivory. It buoyed and soothed at once.”

- Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles, page 34

The Royal Signs II:

Aries: The first king. A colossal man with skin like freshly tilled earth and a voice that could calm the old wild things. Colossal, gentle hands. The first shepherd of rocks and clay. Molding the wild into home. 

Taurus: An exile by birthright, a king by deeds. A tale of honorable revenge and lifelong friendships cut short. A life on horseback that left in its wake an empire, and countless pillars to the dead. 

Gemini: The ghost of a princess. Ever a lady in waiting, she wanders the halls of an abandoned palace. Hands from the ash. The burning silhouette of a child. All those who seek to defile her home will know flame as she did. 

Cancer: Identical twin princes. The reigns of empire won by blood now passed to them. To the surprise of a nation, able to share the throne. Ever deliberating, never moving without consensus. Diplomats, delegates, scholars, and magicians. Memories of mother. Each carries one half of the daisho.

Leo: The high priestess. Ritually sharpened teeth. Rivers of blood washed away by conjured rainstorms. Liaison to the god that sleeps below the great temple. The speaker to the forbidden sun.

Virgo: The Witch Queen. The Wardbreaker. The Mother of Hexes. Armies from the north that could call fire from their hands, wounds healed with the sermons of foreign gods. Captured officers. Secret research in the ancestral necropolis. New magic, gentle and deep as the night. 

Libra: The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king!

Scorpio: The King-of-Five-Crowns. An empire won by respect and might. Retirement. Evenings spent in the summer palace, teaching grandchildren to paint. 

Ophiuchus: An empress of honey and sun-baked gold. Honored dead bound in white cloth. Eternal servitude to their holy queen. Consul from centuries of royalty now passed.

Sagittarius: The Lady of the Grove. Revelries by moonlight. Distant songs in the mist. Lost children. There is a road through the forest, it has since been omitted by mapmakers. 

Capricorn: The middle child of a royal bloodline. Exile to a monastery. A lifetime of meditation on divinity and craft. A heart of clockwork. Mummified in the calculus of the world. 

Aquarius: A penitent queen. Now an adviser to those who overthrew her son. A veil in mourning, but not for him. Deep, terrible understanding of what makes a tyrant.

Pisces: An all-to-young queen. Inheritor to a throne built on war and blood. Ceremonial jewelry that resembles the armament of her knights. A legacy of imperium and bloodshed. A vow to do differently.

Obviously, fucking disgusting pigs they always support each other especially when they’re against women. Men are trash.

the real bro code - protect other men against the consequences of their actions against women

[destructrice-deactivated2024120]

It has nothing to do with these women on the video but the discussion here reminded me of a situation when I was at a club a few years back… a girl was completely passed out on a corner and a guy approached her and started touching her breasts and pulling up her skirt. I was with some male friends and I asked them to go there with me to help her and all of them said no (“not my business” “but it looks like they’re having fun” “I don’t want any problems”). I asked a random girl that was just dancing nearby to go there with me and she just agreed without any objections. The guy freaked out when we verbally confronted him and took off, we found the girl’s friends eventually, everything ended well. But it was terribly disappointing that my male friends, those that call themselves feminist-allies and communists couldn’t care less about a woman being raped and wouldn’t do anything to stop it even when they were called to action.
