//im gonna be real I have been burnt out over here except for some threads and I have most of the replies I owe in my drafts. I am sorry if it takes me a bit to reply I just am very burnt out with Roy. It's not Roy himself but its mostly with all the drafts I owe, I am overwhelmed. So I am only being selective with replies right now and it's not that I don't want to interact I do.

I am just exhausted and need a breather. So if I am spotty and I am only replying to some stuff that I feel at the moment its not because I don't want to write with you. I have to remember to not force myself to write if I am not having fun at the moment and I want to make sure its something we all enjoy with each other, i don't wanna give a forced reply that doesn't look like I am having fun its because I am worn out. I am giving other blogs attention though.

Roleplay is for fun not a job and right now I feel like a machine that's worn out and I don't like that. Thank you for reading this but I am here don't worry. If we follow each other I still wanna interact! Please don't get that mixed up.

I just got to think about my health and right now I wanna focus on a few threads so that I can get those finished and then work on others as I go. I want to make sure we're both having fun!

Anyways if you're here still after reading this thank you for your time. I am still around just a bit spotty atm.

#//if inspiration hits though I usually reply and i put it in the paused queue so I can slowly post some out #//i did post most that were already in my queue #//but im working on filling it up again #//just as i get the inspo #⊰ out of office ; ⊱

❝ Bonnie stood at the edge of the group, her small frame almost lost in the shadows of the trees. Her wide, brown eyes were filled with a kind of fearful wonder as she looked up at the darkening sky. The pale moonlight caught the reddish-gold highlights in her curly hair, making it shimmer like a halo around her heart-shaped face. There was something otherworldly about Bonnie, a quality that made her seem as if she didn’t quite belong in this world. She was delicate and fragile, like a porcelain doll, and yet there was a quiet strength in her, a determination that belied her childlike appearance. ❞ ( Vampire Diaries, The Struggle )

Any judgement on (Richard III)’s reign has to be seen as provisional. The critic of the reign only has to consider how the Tudors would now be regarded if Henry VII lost at Stoke, to realize the dangers of too many assumptions about the intractability of Richard’s problems. But it would be equally unrealistic to ignore Richard’s unpopularity altogether. The fact that he generated opposition among men with little material reason for dissent, and that the disaffection then continued to spread among his own associates, says something about what contemporaries regarded as the acceptable parameters of political behaviour. There is no doubt that Richard’s deposition of his nephews was profoundly shocking. To anyone who did not accept the pre-contract story, which was probably the majority of observers, the usurpation was an act of disloyalty. Gloucester, both as uncle and protector, was bound to uphold his nephew’s interests and his failure to do so was dishonourable. Of all medieval depositions, it was the only one which, with whatever justification, could most easily be seen as an act of naked self-aggrandizement.

It was also the first pre-emptive deposition in English history. This raised enormous problems. Deposition was always a last resort, even when it could be justified by the manifest failings of a corrupt or ineffective regime. How could one sanction its use as a first resort, to remove a king who had not only not done anything wrong but had not yet done anything at all?

-Rosemary Horrox, Richard III: A Study of Service

#richard iii #my post #english history #Imo this is what really stands out to me the most about Richard's usurpation #By all accounts and precedents he really shouldn't have had a problem establishing himself as King #He was the de-facto King from the beginning (the king he usurped was done away with and in any case hadn't even ruled);#He was already well-known and respected in the Yorkist establishment (ie: he wasn't an 'outsider' or 'rival' or from another family branch)#and there was no question of 'ins VS outs' in the beginning of his reign because he initially offered to preserve the offices and positions #for almost all his brother's servants and councilors - merely with himself as their King instead #Richard himself doesn't seem to have actually expected any opposition to his rule and he was probably right in this expectation #Generally speaking the nobility and gentry were prepared to accept the de-facto king out of pragmatism and stability if nothing else #You see it pretty clearly in Henry VII's reign and Edward IV's reign (especially his second reign once the king he usurped was finally #done away with and he finally became the de-facto king in his own right)#I'm sure there were people who disliked both Edward and Henry for usurpations but that hardly matters -#their acceptance was pragmatic not personal #That's what makes the level of opposition to Richard so striking and startling #It came from the very people who should have by all accounts accepted his rule however resigned or hateful that acceptance was #But they instead turned decisively against him and were so opposed to his rule that they were prepared to support an exiled and obscure*#Lancastrian claimant who could offer them no manifest advantage rather than give up opposition when they believed the Princes were dead #It's like Horrox says -#The real question isn't why Richard lost at Bosworth; its why Richard had to face an army at all - an army that was *Yorkist* in motivation #He divided his own dynasty and that is THE defining aspect of his usurpation and his reign. Discussions on him are worthless without it #It really puts a question on what would have happened had he won Bosworth. I think he had a decent chance of success but at the same time #Pretenders would've turned up and they would have been far more dangerous with far more internal support than they had been for Henry #Again - this is what makes his usurpation so fascinating to me. I genuinely do find him interesting as a historical figure in some ways #But his fans instead fixate on a fictional version of him they've constructed in their heads instead #(*obscure from a practical perspective not a dynastic one)#queue

With genuine respect, re: recent ask abt this, the reason a third party candidate won't work is not about numbers and more about the electoral college. Electors commit to vote for their party nominee OR in some states whoever wins the state; tmk there are no third-party electors (certainly not enough to win FPTP) and neither party would replace/challenge an incumbent no matter how unpopular they are. Unfortunately, the two-party system is gonna result in one of two parties, and that simply cannot be fixed with a top-down one-ballot candidate in the next nine months.

There is hope though! It just takes time, just like with environmental reform!! We need a large progressive presence in Congress first, so that we can get national ranked choice voting/get rid of the EC, plus a few other changes. We need more progressives to both vote AND run at all levels/offices and every opportunity, and to continue this high-energy protesting and involvement. It might take 8-12 years (just 2-3 federal elections!) but it is absolutely doable, if we buy ourselves more time this year to be able to make those changes at all in the future.

ugggghhhhh I completely forgot about the electoral college you're totally right about that.

With that in mind yeah you're 100% right. It's just like. God. It feels like 90% of the people running blue for any level are just so increidbly.... basic. Basic at best, pro-genocidal and stagnation fans at worst.

Still, I wouldn't be a solarpunk blog if I didn't have hope for a better brighter future. But goddammit I'm impatient.

#out of queue #ani rambles #answered asks #anonymous #the electoral college is so dumb.......#guess i should look into what all offices are up for grabs in my state/district and see whos running with what platform #and cross my fingers we arent fuckin red again.....#(in my HEART of hearts i hope neither joe nor biden make it to the end of the race by whatever means that may be)#(whether that be the parties simply back other members or if they get jailed/sent to homes or kick it with the homies... idc)

How do they feel about rain? also asked by @ashbalfour

Bonnie loves the rain. It makes her feel alive, the way the air smells fresher, and the earth softens beneath her feet. She finds peace in the steady rhythm of droplets falling, like a gentle lullaby from nature. The rain soothes her, its cool touch reminding her of the power in even the smallest forces of the world.

You know what I fucking hated? Spoilers for Crisis on Infinite Earths, but barely. I HATED hearing Helena call the Batfamily the Batfamily in actual canon on fucking screen. That shit made me cringe so hard I popped a joint in my back. Screaming crying throwing up in the worst possible fucking way. Nasty. Narsty, even.

#crisis on infinite Earths part two #Batfamily #that is OUR name for them i have NEVER seen them call each other that in canon #and it felt bad #they don't need a teen titans go or an avengers assemble #they're fucking ninjas #they just move #you maybe get dick throwing out a joke or a fun giggle #and actually i think that would've been a great time for a little laugh to echo through the darkness or whatever as the fight the shadows #sorry this shit just made me so fucking angry #i swear officers it isn't my queue I've never seen it before
