I like to think they find each other in every universe

hey sorry, I invited your boyfriend to my murder mystery invite only casual dinner party/gala for friends potluck, (well technically, I didn't, I didn't invite him, he came as your plus one) and you see, there was some confusion with the lights going out and well it seems now he's lying facedown in the soup, possibly deceased. Yeah, really sorry that happened, I definitely won't be having celebratory fireworks over it tonight

NO ONE knows how to use thou/thee/thy/thine and i need to see that change if ur going to keep making “talking like a medieval peasant” jokes. /lh

They play the same roles as I/me/my/mine. In modern english, we use “you” for both the subject and the direct object/object of preposition/etc, so it’s difficult to compare “thou” to “you”.

So the trick is this: if you are trying to turn something Olde, first turn every “you” into first-person and then replace it like so:

“I” →  “thou”

“Me” →  “thee”

“My” →  “thy”

“Mine” →  “thine”

Let’s suppose we had the sentences “You have a cow. He gave it to you. It is your cow. The cow is yours”.

We could first imagine it in the first person-

“I have a cow. He gave it to me. It is my cow. The cow is mine”.

And then replace it-

“Thou hast a cow. He gave it to thee. It is thy cow. The cow is thine.”

it's not needed but if they ever make another p+p adaption they really need to finally add in the part after darcy's second proposal where they discuss his letter it's so underrated and it's left out of every adaption especially since I think we all need to see that scene where it's like after they talk and clear the air Liz starts feeling like herself again and immediately starts teasing darcy and shes like so :D when did u start liking me huh huh :D what was it and Mr. Cool over here wants to be all smooth and go I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun. and shes like *snorts* LAAAAAAAAMEEEEEE you liked me bc I'm the only girl that wouldn't take ur shit and he's like......... ok yes

I think I found my new favorite rabbit hole. This voice actor does Shakespeare scenes in a southern accent and I need to see the whole damn play. Absolutely beautiful

No because pride and prejudice isn't "I changed myself for you so you would love me back." It's "your blatant rejection and disdain for me made me realize things about myself no one had ever been bold enough to tell me so I sat down and evaluated all my behavior patterns and why they came about and came to the realization myself that I had to work on myself. Also I don't expect you to love me now that I'm a work in progress, so I'm just going to do nice things for you because I don't like seeing you hurt." No wonder P&P fans refuse to settle.

After watching wwdits (gay vampires) and ofmd (gay pirates) I think Taika Waititi is the only one who can be trusted with making the hypothetical spin off for Jed and Octavius (the gay cowboy and roman) from Night at the Museum

Silver pocket globe with case, c. 1800

Geographical details on the sphere show California drawn as peninsular. Australia and New Zealand are completely outlined, and a few European cities are labelled including, for example, 'London', 'Paris' and 'Madrid'. Australia and New Zealand are drawn according to Cook's explorations, which indicate a date after 1780 and Tasmania is still a peninsula, indicating a date before 1805.

Hadestown Characters as Things My Friends Have Actually Said

Hermes: “I gotta say, I almost said something, but then I remembered that he’s a dumbass, so he was gonna do it anyways.”

Orpheus: “Current level of exhaustion is crying over song lyrics that I wrote.”

Eurydice: “I do love you, but I love food more.”

Persephone: *after being informed she might be poisoning herself* “Welp, we’re here for a good time, not a long time!”

Hades:  “I don’t fear death, taxes, or heights. But I do fear the common cold.”

The Fates: “WAKE UP NOW OR SO HELP ME I WILL FIND A WAY TO SING TO YOU OVER TEXT.”

The Workers: “I don’t get paid enough to deal with your marriage problems, Betsy.”

Mighty Nein as Marching Band

Since people keep talking about harps and flutes, this came to mind. Obviously, this is my opinion, but I do have reasons, which I’ll share.

Beau: trombone

Look, idk what it is about rebels and playing trombone, but it’s a thing. Beau is definitely the kid who would sit in the band room playing meme songs during lunch, and that is peak trombone energy.

Caduceus: bass drum

Yeah, flute would be funny, but I legit don’t know if Cad could pull off actual flute parts. Bass drum, though, is super easy and also pretty mellow?

Caleb: glockenspiel

Listen, Caleb’s skills are memorizing precise finger movements, and that’s exactly what you need to play glockenspiel. Caleb would totally be the guy with three mallets in each hand doing crazy harmonies and the song is like... “Sweet Caroline.”

Calianna: clarinet

Sweet, quiet girls who are a little more girly tend to gravitate to either flute or clarinet. And while Cali could be a flautist, I like the aesthetic of her with a clarinet.

Fjord: clarinet

Male clarinet players aren’t a huge population, but every one of them I’ve met is a sweet, awkward dork like Fjord. He’d be insecure about playing a girly instrument at first, but he’d embrace it eventually.

Jester: cymbals

What Jester lacks in musical prowess, she makes up for in enthusiasm. And that’s why cymbals would be perfect for her! She would love to be crashing in the back, only actually memorizing a quarter of the music.

Keg: bass drum

I’m not saying that all bass drum players are dumb. However, if any instrument lacked object permanence, it’d be the bass drum.

Mollymauk: trumpet

Trumpets... are a very specific type of people. People who tend to think of themselves veeery highly, perhaps as a god? Loud, flashy, trumpet and Molly make total sense.

Nila: flute

Sweet, quiet, mom friend, down to fight when necessary? All of these are traits Nila and flautists have in common. Plus, flutes sounds like birds, and I think she’d appreciate that.

Nott: trombone

Trombone players are feral. And brilliant. And ready to fight you.

Reani: trumpet

If you’re not a loud, flashy, asshole and you play trumpet, you’re a square. Reani would be the one who actually wants to practice during sectionals while everyone else competes to see who can play the highest note.

Shakaste: tenor sax

hnghh..... big sexy; that’s it, that’s the whole argument.

Spurt: cymbals

Let’s be real, if they could give him the Marching tambourine, they would. But it isn’t a thing, so they’d give him some cymbals and say follow Jester.

It wouldn’t go well; he wouldn’t finish band camp.

Twiggy: alto sax

They seem like they’ve got it together, but don’t be fooled. Alto sax players are disasters, and are just slightly better at hiding it than the other instruments. They’re also meme-loving fucks, and Twiggy definitely has that vibe.

Yasha: sousaphone

She is strong, a gentle giant. She also can play clarinet, but the band director needed someone for sousaphone, so she was recruited. She loves it.

do you ever think about how lister’s twitter is canonically a PR nightmare

“the mysterious benedict society,” constance said, rising as she spoke. then she left the room, apparently convinced that no more discussion was necessary. and, as it turned out, she was right.
