A Wimbledon question but not about photos so I hope you don’t mind. Do you have any theory why so many seats around Meghan were empty but not around Kate? Could the threat level against Meghan by higher? Or could it just be a personal preference?

Hello :) I have no idea. We don’t know what was going on behind the scenes. 

[teapartyinspace-blog]

She bought out the 40 seats!

Too good to be sat with 'commoners' you would NEVER see this crap from ANY other current member of the BRF

I like to believe that all the dragons in the world were magically cursed and turned into cats. But cats have never forgotten where they come from, hence the attitude.

[tanoraqui]

I nearly didn’t reblog this but the above comment makes more sense than anything I’ve ever heard.

[mzminola]

…that’s…that’s actually a story my mom used to tell me when I was little? That a dragon showed up at someone’s cottage so they gave it milk. And the dragon enjoyed the milk, so it kept coming back and got smaller and softer and purry-er until eventually it wasn’t a dragon anymore, it was a cat, and that’s where cats came from and why we keep giving them milk.

She might have gotten the story from Ursula K. Le Guin, or I have confused it with a different dragon story.

[ladyswearalot]

That’s also why cats tend to hoard their toys behind the couch!

[personalprofundity]

Actually the story is even older. Written by a woman named Edith Nesbit, first published in 1899, it is called “The Dragon Tamers”. It predates Leguin and other fantasy biggies like Lewis and Tolkien.

Nesbit actually can be credited with being one of the first authors that began to shift myths and legends to more fantasy-like stories (fantasy as a genre how we know it, wasn’t around then because it was just part of literature, especially British literature). In fact, many scholars who study fantasy literature and children’s literature believe that, since her children’s stories were so popular with children in England, the stories and their content prompted Tolkien (the first to coin fantasy as its own genre in his essay “On Fairy Stories”) to take up the stories of dragons and elves and fairies as they’d have been children when she was writing.

Tolkien was born in 1892. He would have been 7 when “The Dragon Tamers” was first published. Edith Nesbit did a LOT for modernizing myths, legends, and lore as a children’s author, maybe more than we will ever know.

Let’s hear it for Edith Nesbit.

Yes! I just.... I'm not pleased with the trailer... Or Bellamy, but Bellamy has been disappointing for a while so :)

[skullcracker7]

I’ve read the 100 book series, and I have questions about how season 6 is the start of book 2. I have never minded when a show uses a loose structure of the book in order to build up their own plot and characters. But at this point they’re making it out like they are using the books when in my opinion they completely threw them out the window after season 1. I’m wondering if their meaning book to as in maybe their own series. But I don’t get why they would need to chapter these as books unless they were trying to say that they are based on the books entirely.

[teapartyinspace-blog]

No... It's not following the books. It's sort of based on them... Kind of like how The Vampire Diaries TV takes the concepts/general ideas of characters/plots.. but is entirely separate.

My guess is they've called it 'book 2' because this 'chapter/story' has ended. TV shows/cartoons do that. AtLA had 'books', Blacklist has its '#blacklister' ... It's just a way of distinguishing their show/concepts tying things in

In AtLA the 'books' corresponded to the elements Aang knew/was learning plus the hype up to the final battle/fight against Ozai.

In the TV show 'The Blacklist' it's a criminal giving the FBI a list of the worst of the worst, every episode has a name (of someone on that list- and the number) it's when you see the number get lower on the list you realise it's a setup for something really important...

Hope the explanation helps a bit :)

Blacklist Theories 6x13/6x14- 6x12 spoilers

Okay... So after THOSE promos 6:13/6:14...

I'm calling it. It won't be Samar that ....

Unfortunately... If anyone on the taskforce would be truly gone... With a very heavy heart, I'm going to say...

HAROLD COOPER

Here's why:

1) it would be shocking. Cooper has always seemed physically untouchable, he's been an great ally to Redington and a brilliant boss to the task force ... To kill him, would have everything thrown off balance but also a more vengeful task force ready to burn everything because of it. It would come full circle to the whole ethics of helping Red build his criminal empire, ect.

2) McMahan will now directly oversee the Task Force for Main Justice

.... The woman we are going to love to hate. I nearly cried when Cooper said he would look forward to working with her due to the high mortality rate haha. ... True but, this is someone not to be underestimated, she's alive for a reason and I think that if she thinks Cooper isn't playing ball, she wouldn't hesitate. It would also lead to the question of who would be in charge of the task force now...

3) if someone on the task force has to die, 1) it can't be Liz. 2) Samar is too obvious. 3) Aram, whilst being a possibility, again I just don't think will happen. 4) Donald- I very much doubt it, like Liz, he's one of the 'main' characters, it's him, Dembe, Red and Liz that are more 'central' in a visual way.

So yeah that's my sad theory. Hopefully not though!!

[silversarcasm]

fun fact: sterilisation of women with severe mental health issues is actually a good idea. my cousin has down syndrome and a mental age of eight, but when she went through puberty obv she wanted to have sex and men are pigs, so some were willing. my aunt was terrified at the idea of her daughter having a baby, because she would have had to look after yet another child? and no, my cousin couldn't live on her own, let alone take care of a baby. so think before you speak for everyone.

Forcible sterilisation of disabled people is absolutely horrifying and I’m so sorry that your cousin has to live with a family who have no respect for her autonomy

‘Mental age’ is a bullshit term used to infantilise disabled people that is incorrect and harmful, if a disabled person is 18 they have a mental age of 18, if a disabled person is 30, they have a mental age of 30, you don’t get to assign a different age to us in order to justify mistreatment, control and abuse

If she wants to have sex and you’re worried about pregnancy then bloody have some conversations with her about safe sex, contraception and just general sex education, denying her that and instead forcing medical procedures on her is disgusting and will not protect from men who mean her harm

Many people with down syndrome have relationships, sex and children, disabled people can be wonderful parents and you have no right to deny us that, you need to take a long look at yourself and consider why we are the exception to the rule of consent

The post you are saying I didn’t think before writing about was actually in response to the sterilisation of disabled people by their parents so you can be damn sure I’m thinking about it
