It really makes me sick to see people giving money to penny weeklies when Franklin's expedition STILL has not been found 😭 There are good men out there trapped in unimaginable temperatures and literally all that's needed is a little more funding for another rescue mission yet all you guys seem to care about are your vulgar little stories...

I swear this website has 0 reading comprehension skills. Darwin NEVER claimed we "evolved" from apes like if one of you guys actually bothered to open his new book you'll see all his arguments are backed up by evidence. He actually makes a lot of sense

#sure there's nuance like i don't fully agree with all of it #but his general theory of natural selection seems pretty sound imo

Of course these are the finalists lmao this website is so predictable. Anyway vote Heathcliff if you dont i'm going to assume you're a phrenologist

📖 sapphichelenburns Follow

It's not problematic to acknowledge the fact that Heathcliff was a brute like he literally killed dogs in case you forgot. #rochestersweep

🙈 butchbronte Follow

I love the implication here that Rochester never did anything cruel either. He literally locked his wife in the attic and lied to Jane about it 😭 like that was a pretty significant thing that happened

Hbomb said that Simon being an immortal dragon doesn't make much sense, even in Russian. But it may not be true.

You see, in slavic folklore there's a specific version of a dragon that is called Змей Горыныч, which roughly translates as the Mountain Snake. In Russian "Горыныч" is a cool and menacing word because of similarity between two words гора (mountain) and горе (woe, hardship). Горыныч sounds simultaneously as if this Snake is from mountains and also it will bring woe and destruction.

So, snakes are symbolically important to the Bachelor, I don't know if you noticed. Snakes symbolize immortality and also medicine in general. Kains also symbolize medicine, their last name is meant to invoke the naming of drugs like novocaine (which is written a bit differently in English but is exactly the same in Russian новокаин - Каин).

Also. Notably the Mountain Snake has three heads, who all have independent consciousnesses and different personalities. There are three Kain brothers. But also. They live in the Crucible, which has three buildings. And Crucible is a good and accurate transition of what their mansion called in Russian, they're utopians, they melt humans and forge them into superhumans, cool. But in Russian the Crucible is Горны. Do you see it? It's the same word again. It all fits together.

Admittedly, I'm not a slavic folklore scholar. I'm just a regular Russian who exists within this cultural context. So maybe if you actually familiar with all the legends and fairytales about the Mountain Snake the layers of meaning here go much deeper. Or maybe not. Or maybe it's all just a coincidence. Probably.

If the developers ever commented on this issue let me know.
