Do you ever feel like everything is profound when there is absolutely nothing happening to you? Nothing but your cat’s fur against your skin. The wind blowing your hair around. The night sky in your breath. Melancholy music in your ear.

How I feel everytime I have to be a customer
trains are to engineering as crabs are to biology. on a long enough timescale, if you optimize almost any system enough, you eventually get some form of either a train or a crab

“LORD CAVERSHAM: Want to have a serious conversation with you, sir.
LORD GORING: My dear father! At this hour?
LORD CAVERSHAM: Well, sir, it is only ten o’clock. What is your objection to the hour? I think the hour is an admirable hour!
LORD GORING: Well, the fact is, father, this is not my day for talking seriously. I am very sorry, but it is not my day.
LORD CAVERSHAM: What do you mean, sir?
LORD GORING: During the Season, father, I only talk seriously on the first Tuesday in every month, from four to seven.
LORD CAVERSHAM: Well, make it Tuesday, sir, make it Tuesday.
LORD GORING: But it is after seven, father, and my doctor says I must not have any serious conversation after seven. It makes me talk in my sleep.”

Update: I went with the pair in the middle. My MC is Balthasar Rose (they/them).
Oh no, PB, oh no…

We are back and better, everyone! No troll results this time.
this is going to be a sizzling hot take but alloromantic queers can mention someone’s queerness without feeding into relationship hierarchy and amatonormativity
you can mention that sappho was obviously wlw without your reasoning being “friends don’t say that to friends!!” you can mention that khnumhotep and niankhkhnum were likely lovers without saying that friendships are inherently not as intimate as romantic relationships. you can say that you think this writer was queer without saying that people can’t care for friends that way or that only lovers would die for each other.
because when you do that shit, it fucking hurts aromantics. it feeds into the already pervasive narrative that we can’t ever care for anyone, that any love that we might feel isn’t nearly as meaningful even if we pour our heart and soul into it, that we can’t possibly be “just friends” with this person.
guess what? friendships matter! friendships exist, in a shit ton of different forms that’s far more different today than it was before, and us pointing this out is not the same thing as straight homophobes erasing gay people and relationships.
(also imagine how many “straight” relationships in history might actually have been close friendships but we don’t talk about that part of heteronormativity for some reason huh.)
want to point out that this person was clearly in love with his so-called “best friend”? okay. instead of diminishing friendships and saying that this relationship was “clearly more intimate than any friendship could ever be” you can just say that the relationship is very much in line with typical heterosexual relationships. and if a homophobe chooses not to care, that’s not an excuse to employ narratives that are amatonormative as hell.
THANK YOU.
I know this post is about historical figures, but I want to say that this is also a hugely pervasive thing in fandom.
There is nothing wrong with shipping fictional characters together romantically, but please try not to back it up by pointing out literally every positive interaction they have and insisting that "friends would never do this!"
Especially when it's stuff like openly saying how much they care for each other, or being there for each other during a crisis, or risking their lives for each other. Like, way to tell every aro person reading that "you will never have/be worthy of this."
I'm not saying you have to only have queerplatonic headcanons from now on. Or that you're not allowed to interpret certain interactions between characters who are canonically platonic friends as actually being romantic.
Just don't claim that said actions are inherently romantic, or that people in a platonic relationship would be incapable of showing that level of affection. Aka, don't be arophobic.
Hello I have jumped on the uquiz bandwagon! Tell me about your writing style and I’ll give you an aesthetic.
I used to write all the time. This makes me want to take it up again.
Can I leave Sam and date this guy instead? Please. 😍
I’ve never liked Sam, and Aditya seems awesome.
when black people tell nonblack people they need to do better, stop getting defensive. start trying to unlearn your biases and racist tendencies. if you do not try, you are part of the problem.
This! There’s no need to jump to conclusions.
Uh, the monarchy IS corrupt. It’s an inherently corrupt form of government. You can’t corrupt a monarchy because that would be a tautology.
