TIL that the English word “Lord” in the sense of the head of an estate comes from an Old English word of Germanic origins, hlāfweard, later hlāford, later lord. 

Normally I wouldn’t remark on my romps through etymology, but “hlafweard” is a compound of hlaf, or loaf, and weard, which means guardian (see also Ward or Warden, etc). Meaning that when you call someone a lord you are calling him an esteemed keeper of the bread. 

HEY THERE BREADBOX PETER WIMSEY. LOAF GUARD PALPATINE. BREAD CLIP VETINARI. 

Lady also derives from hlaf, but in this case hlafdige or bread kneader. She makes the bread, he monitors it. Women have to do all the work as usual. 

Now, the reason I was looking this up was that I wanted to develop a gender-neutral analogue to lord/lady; there are analogues already out there naturally, but the Shivadh must be different and anyway I didn’t like the ones I’d seen suggested online. 

Given that the origins of Lord and Lady aren’t all that strongly gendered anyway (they’re about what the person does, not what their gender is), I decided that if a woman is a bread-kneader and a man is a bread-guarder, a nonbinary person should be A BREAD EATER, which would be Hlafetan.  

Thus I present to you the gender-neutral analogue to Lord or Lady: Ledan.

It is so fucked up and weird and anti-intellectual to act like you can’t care about preserving art and significant historical sites while you care about preserving the environment and ecology. These things are not at odds with each other. Heritage sites and ecological sites are both often endangered by the same capitalist forces of destruction and greed. People deserve to be able to enjoy and witness the natural world AND historical sites like cemeteries, burial grounds/tombs, architecturally significant buildings, churches/temples/cathedrals/mosques and anthropological sites etc.

Instead of making up shitty racist headcanons about Miles shoplifting join me in headcanoning him picking up ballet because he thought Gwen being a ballerina was super neat and it would help him in his spiderman job

I realised I hadn’t done any lineup for Hallowoods and made it my personal project to correct this ASAP!! And yes, I know some aren’t completely canon-compliant, but sometimes you just get a STRONG first vision when you listen and I’m the type of person who follows my heart! I know Lady Ethel in her more… human…appearance probably wasn’t like…. 3m tall BUT IN SPIRIT!? + a possible post black rain version
