While she publicly embraced her Tudor ancestors, she treated her Tudor cousins harshly. By contrast, she almost never mentioned her mother's name in public, but she bestowed favors on Boleyn descendants and discreetly honored her maternal ancestors.

tbh critical support to elizabeth there, all her tudor side cousins were really dumb

Stupid ask because I haven't thought of a good one yet. Which operator(s) would you do this to:

EheheheWahahahahaHeeheheGahahahaha

Here it is! The Shaw Kill Technique!

"Shaw, KIIIIIIIIIILL THEM!"

Absolutely forever, Harmonie. I don't care whether we need a deuterated solvent or Mumu herself to prevent her getting used to it and interefering with Arts (hey, we could borrow Ho'olheyak's Arts too) but yeah I'll have a dedicated spritz bottle for unwanted encounters. Bad, awful, pathetic cat get her off my landship. Do you know? That ballroom scene in Firelight Casts, where L (Fischer) watches as Light (harmonica) realised how fucked the situation currently was, is the only scene of value she has had. That look of despair is incredibly priceless <3 I'd misappropriate Weedy's robot buddy Leaf to farm that expression, ufufufu~

After her, I would have said Elysium or Tequila but actually they'd just win a wet t-shirt competition on the regular for being well, themselves.

For another delectably savage move, do it to a post-workout Saria or post-battle Mudrock and hear a million voices cry out at once through PRTS. Just don't hit Mudrock's golems and it's fine.

Mr Lee. He's the kind of suffering dad that gets hit by the errant water balloon walking in as the kids mess around. That's his goofy slapstick beat quite often. And hey, he'd be able to switch it into looking a dashing sort of disheveled with freshly-wetted and tousled hair. Perhaps.

Insider. Generic shounen protagonist ikemen.

Ceobe. This is just further enrichment for her. Unstoppable lil Cerberus.

ON THIS DAY:

On 25 September 1615, Lady Arabella Stuart died at the Tower of London of starvation after refusing to eat. 🏰

Arabella and her husband both had distant claims to the throne and were imprisoned at the Tower of London after marrying without permission from the King.

Lady Arbella Stuart (also Arabella or Stewart; 1575 – 25 September 1615) was an English noblewoman who was considered a possible successor to Queen Elizabeth I of England.

During the reign of King James VI and I (her first cousin), she married William Seymour, 2nd Duke of Somerset, another claimant to the English throne, in secret.

King James imprisoned William Seymour and placed her under house arrest.

When she and her husband tried to escape England, she was captured and imprisoned in the Tower of London, where she died at age 39.

American here. You're doing a service spreading the love for Käärijä. It's been a fun ride.

Thank you! I'm so incredibly happy that he has reached people not just in Finland, not just in Europe but all over the world with his song and performance, and persona. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we Finns are so, so very proud of him. <3

‘Tudor Feminists: Ten Renaissance Women Ahead of Their Time’ by Rebecca Wilson

Genre: Adult Non-Fiction – History Published: 2024 Format: Hardback Rating: ★★★ I enjoyed this book – it was good to learn more about some of the people I knew less about like Arbella Stuart, Grainne O’Malley, and Aemilia Lanier. I had only heard of Lanier in passing, knew she was a poet, and O’Malley I largely knew about through Greg Jenner’s excellent episode on her on his ‘You’re Dead to…

[quotesfrommyreading]

In their royal play at Eltham, Elizabeth, Henry and Margaret had a wealth of toys and games from which to choose. Toy manufacture began to reach an industrial scale in early sixteenth-century Germany, when toys could be made cheaply and quickly for export and sale.

There were toys to suit almost any parental purse, ranging from the inexpensive cup and ball to intricate tin toy animals. Babies were given gender-neutral playthings, including rattles, which are known from the sixteenth century, windmills and, for older infants, hobby horses. There were baby walkers, too, with their wooden frames to help the toddler learn to walk.

Certain toys were aimed at girls. Dolls had been in existence for centuries before Elizabeth's birth, having originally been made of clay. Dolls' houses and miniature furniture are known from at least the mid-sixteenth century, again in Germany. These could include dolls' kitchens with dishes, meat plates, cutlery and furniture, all carefully wrought. Wealthy girls, such as Princess Elizabeth, could also receive fashion dolls, modelling the latest in clothing, while poorer children's dolls were made of rags and stuffed with straw.

A few sixteenth-century dolls survive in museum collections, but to get a true idea of the lavishness of some examples, it is necessary to turn to portraiture. In 1577, the two-year-old Arbella Stuart, who was a great-great-granddaughter of Henry VII, sat for a portrait that now hangs in Hardwick Hall, her childhood home. Clutched in her left hand is a doll, depicting an adult woman in Elizabethan dress, with a ruff at her neck, puffed sleeves and a full skirt. It was probably a fashion doll, given to this wealthy and aristocratic little girl as a toy. Perhaps it was a favourite of hers, which she refused to part with even as she sat for her first portrait.

Children from every walk of life were capable of finding a toy in almost anything, including animal knucklebones, wooden wheels or household implements. A famous painting (1560) by Peter Brueghel, which now hangs in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, shows more than 200 children playing around 80 different games, providing an unprecedented insight into children pursuits of the period. Most of the games are familiar: girls play knucklebones and dolls, while a group of boys and girls act out a mock bridal procession and another group plays blind man's bluff. One girl is also depicted pretending to keep a shop; other children play 'paper, scissors, stone', roll hoops and rock barrels.

There were some adults who looked for educational value in these games. Juan Luis Vives considered that the well-bred girl 'in the form of play' should be permitted to 'exercise herself in things that will be of benefit to her later'. He favoured 'chaste tales' told to the girl, rather than dolls, 'which are a kind of image of idolatry and teach girls the desire for adornments and finery'.�� Nonetheless, as he said, 'those toys made of tin or lead that represent household objects' were still permissible, since they provided 'a pleasant pastime for the child, and in the meantime she learns the names and uses of various things without even being aware of it'.

Through play and the accoutrements of play, as she sought to imitate her mother or nurse, a Tudor girl began to learn about the world and her place within it.

“It [marriage plots — made by Roman Catholics in Europe who sought to convert or kidnap Arbella Stuart] had already been hinted at some four years earlier, but now it was openly discussed, and though there is no evidence that she gave it the least encouragement, or was indeed ever officially approached concerning it, the bare contemplation of such a marriage made the queen furiously angry. From this time for many years Arbella became, quite innocently, the centre of so elaborate an intricacy of plot and counter-plot that no succeeding generations, working patiently through masses of State and Private Papers in every variety of code and cipher, have been able entirely to unravel it. The girl herself, not strikingly lovely, but pleasant looking, seems to have owed such personal charm as she possessed more to her expression than to the regularity of her features. Her eyes, usually painted as blue, are sometimes described as hazel; her hair was fair, her figure good, her hands white and beautiful, and the brightness and intelligence of her smile particularly attractive. But it was seldom or never for herself that poor Arbella was desired — merely as a pawn in the great and endless game of king-and queen-making.”

I'm going through a bunch of old photos of Finland (mostly Helsinki because that's where the people were) and I've noticed a lot of houses with what looks like permanent ladders attached to the roof. Do you know what those would be for?

I do. They are emergency escapes or access to the roof for maintenance, but often both. They are required by law (unless, for maintenance, the roof can be accessed from inside of the building). What you saw are probably primarily for maintenance.

You'll find ladders in any house that has more than one floor. The idea for fire escapes, naturally, is that if you can't escape through the normal route (say the downstairs is on fire and it's not safe to go there or the fire is between you and the stairs), you can escape through a window instead.

This is what they look like in detached houses:

As you can see, they don't reach the ground because their primary purpose is to serve as means for the residents to get safely down in case of a fire. Also because children shouldn't be able to climb them. But they are used as maintenance access, too. Or rather, maintenance ladders double as fire escapes. The houses in the first photo should have a ladder that reaches the roof somewhere else as these very short ladders are just a fire escape. So in an emergency you'd get as low as you can and then drop down to safety.

In these photos you see ladders to the roof that are probably more similar to the ladders you saw in commercial and residential buildings in Helsinki. They don't reach the ground, either, so that children can't reach them and to discourage someone randomly climbing onto the roof.

You can also see a snow stopper on the roof. They prevent snow from sliding down the roof, which can kill you should you be unfortunate enough to stand below when the snow slides down. Despite insulation, especially in older houses with less insulation, the roof does get some warmth from the house, so the lower layers of snow begin to melt once you have enough snow (the snow itself works as insulation for the lower layers). Once there is enough weight to the snow, it all slides down in one go. This happens especially in early spring when the sun is out and snow is melting. The snow stoppers prevent this from happening.

There are also ladders on the roof to allow safe access to the chimneys. There is also a "bridge" connecting the two ladders in the third photo.
