wish i was a late republican roman girl

i would listen to speeches by cicero at the rostra. i would read caesar's commentaries on the gallic war in the roman forum. i would fear invasions from the germanic tribes. i would marry a man with a purple bordered toga and distinguished ancestors and follow the mos maiorum. i would get proscribed and have my property confiscated and be declared an enemy of the state

#I would be named after my father just like all of my sisters and referred to by my number in the birth order #i would become a vestal virgin and maintain the sacred flame only to be put to death when it goes out #i would wear a stolla as a respectable roman matrona and have my ancillae sew up my hair every morning

ok why is no one talking about how funny the opening of hamlet is. the guards begging horatio who is like trembling and shaking and about to pass out to speak to a ghost. because he went to school?? so he’s qualified?? horatio just repeatedly shouting ‘speak’ at it. for some reason using ‘thou’ directly after bernardo tells him it’s the ghost of the king. this attempt does not work. the ghost leaving and the guards being like damn it horatio!!! look what you did!! it’s offended!!!!

#horatio doing the classic “accidentally call your boyfriend's dad by his first name” blunder in his first five minutes onstage #god i love this play

So people just cross the road here? Like they don't wait for the light every time? When I was a kid everyone told me that if I jaywalked I would get run over. I was walking around yesterday and a bunch of people just jaywalked right in front of cop. The cop was doing something else but wtf! If you are from Boston could you please explain this to me.

fic writer asks: 30!

30. share a fic you’re especially proud of

Oooh, well. I haven't posted much in the way of fanfic recently, but I am pretty proud of the one I'm working on currently. It's a VERY in-depth rewrite of something I got a couple of chapters into before... and then realized was incredibly boring bc I was deliberately not writing the tropes I like. But yeah! It's a Shink fic I'm hoping to post in a few weeks or so that I am tentatively calling "Untethered." It's set in BOTW's Ancient Past, and according to the one person who has read it so far, incredibly angsty and sad (hehe). I'll post the AO3 link to my Tumblr once I start putting it out there.

#thanks for the ask! #sheik

Changing my belief system from "this is the hill I'll die on" to "this is the hill I'll kill you on" has done absolute wonders for me 10/10 do recommend

This isn’t commonly known but one of the rings of hell is actually being in a fandom wherein the popular bloggers have the worst opinions known to man that everyone else parrots

"Here are your tortured poets. All from Mahmoud Darwish to Dr. Refat Alareer to Khaled Juma, these are tortured poets. Tortured by longing for a home they can never return to, tortured by the world they were born to for BEING BORN. Palestine, home to the tortured poets department." [@/folkoftheshelf on X.

“If a society puts half its children into short skirts and warns them not to move in ways that reveal their panties, while putting the other half into jeans and overalls and encouraging them to climb trees, play ball, and participate in other vigorous outdoor games; if later, during adolescence, the children who have been wearing trousers are urged to “eat like growing boys,” while the children in skirts are warned to watch their weight and not get fat; if the half in jeans runs around in sneakers or boots, while the half in skirts totters about on spike heels, then these two groups of people will be biologically as well as socially different. Their muscles will be different, as will their reflexes, posture, arms, legs and feet, hand-eye coordination, and so on. Similarly, people who spend eight hours a day in an office working at a typewriter or a visual display terminal will be biologically different from those who work on construction jobs. There is no way to sort the biological and social components that produce these differences. We cannot sort nature from nurture when we confront group differences in societies in which people from different races, classes, and sexes do not have equal access to resources and power, and therefore live in different environments. Sex-typed generalizations, such as that men are heavier, taller, or stronger than women, obscure the diversity among women and among men and the extensive overlaps between them… Most women and men fall within the same range of heights, weights, and strengths, three variables that depend a great deal on how we have grown up and live. We all know that first-generation Americans, on average, are taller than their immigrant parents and that men who do physical labor, on average, are stronger than male college professors. But we forget to look for the obvious reasons for differences when confronted with assertions like ‘Men are stronger than women.’ We should be asking: ‘Which men?’ and ‘What do they do?’ There may be biologically based average differences between women and men, but these are interwoven with a host of social differences from which we cannot disentangle them.”

Tfw you're transported to the alternate universe where everything is a metaphor for your complicated relationship with what it means to be grown up
