King Arthur slept through the Norman Conquest, Edward I’s annexation of Wales, the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, World Wars I & II, etc. etc. BUT if Prydain had another giant monster boar crisis, you best believe his ass would be up and rearing to go. 🙄

born to boar hunt, forced to be the once and future king

Britain never has to worry about roving packs of 30-50 feral hogs swarming their small children

The concept of King Arthur experiencing contemporary rural Texas…

I'd watch it.

Sounds like the perfect counterpart for Mark Twain's 'A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court'

When the actual academic scholarly book makes the tumblr meme post a reality.

there are places in the world today that are experiencing 40°C for the first time in recorded history. of course there's no way to know whether chucking billionaires into volcanos will appease the sun god but i feel we're doing the scientific method a disservice if we don't at least try

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

i feel like the youth should be reminded that the point of shipping is not for a ship to become canon. the point of shipping is to collect all the canon crumbs like starved mice, run away cackling and make some fun little scenarios with them just for the hell of it.

unfortunately i have free will so im about to make art that is going to appeal to basically 4 people. let us hope those 4 people follow me.

So how is it that second-hand embarrassment is the single most powerful and weakening emotion one can feel from media?

Tragedy? Delicious.

A hard-earned happy ending? Wonderful.

A convoluted narrative? Keeps you glued.

Simple slice of life? It’s entertaining.

Second-hand embarrassment? Hang on, g, I gotta pause this for fifteen minutes, no, I cannot continue watching this right now, I am just not strong enough.

Oh boy, a complex character who's a woman! I love messy characters who hurt everyone around them and continue the cycles that hurt them!! Can't wait to share this joy with fellow fans– why's everyone calling her a bitch

[theslowesthnery]

ah yes my favourite trope

Marie Curie's notebooks are crazy once you think about it. They're so radioactive they have to be sealed in a lead box. Imagine a world where atomic theory is forgotten and a dude just goes "yea there's a book that details the secrets of the universe, the machinations of the creation of existence down to its barest essentials, but if you get close to it you fucking die. The more you read it the more your body slowly disassembles into mush." like wat excuse me

well-but-focusedly-learned citizen of constantinople finding out who ultimately emerged to succeed anastasius:

Someone should make a tier list of Byzantine emperors (and empresses, there are a few of those) ranging from “now THAT is an Imperial Name” to “i went to school with someone named that and he was awful”. They really do cover the field — you’ve got Heraclius and Andronikos sharing space with Maurice and John.

yknow how some museums will have replicas of artifacts for you to touch? they should do that but with things i can put in my mouth. like little candies shaped like roman coins or potsherds or bits of egyptian glass or what have you. let me eat the artifacts. let me in. let me innnnnnn

[prince-of-pathogens]

My grandma was the librarian for a fancy private school in my area, and she got to keep the replica Roman coins they used for instruction. She gave them to me for my birthday a few years back, so now I have about 60 of them. They are mine, and I can do whatever I please. These things definitely exist, you just have to find the right connections.

[thoodleoo]

are you...suggesting that i eat replica coins not made out of foodstuffs...?

[prince-of-pathogens]

Yes. The Romans loved adding lead into their wine, so really, you'd just be doing a historical reenactment.

[thoodleoo]

fuuuuuck youre right ok chat im gonna go ingest some lead(ii) acetate brb
