🎶 The Crown…

Pix now wears the Crown… 🎶

—

The moment of recognition when that ancient and powerful thing deep in the catacombs… discovers the Crown.

#empires smp #pixlriffs #empires smp fanart #pixlriffs fanart #empires fanart #empires pixlriffs #empiresblr #floweroflaurelin art #mcyt fanart #mcyt #mcytblr #gif #animated #aha! by making that post about not having time to make fanart I tricked you all into not expecting any #thus freeing myself from the pressure of feeling like I have to get fanart done for major story beats #and allowing me to have the motivation to procrastinate my thesis and make stuff for fun instead!#anyway this is the same crown design I did AGES ago but it’s all tarnished now #I’m so excited to have it back the way everyone covets it is so good #I mean THEE historian sees it and instead of preserving it he puts it on his head and comments on how well it fits??#he’s never had any interest in telling people what to do and then declares himself king and threatens those who disobey with ‘punishment’??#everyone who sees it is driven to do anything in their power to get it for themselves?#what does the Crown want. what does it get out of this. it is so very much a cursed object and I love it

i dont think this is relatable to anyone but a lot of people i encounter have never heard of fall out boy but the thing is i dont know if theyve never heard of fall out boy or if they just dont know theyve heard of fall out boy. and youre thinking, well thats easy. list some singles. ok. which singles. because trying to figure out which fall out boy single someone is most likely to have heard is like throwing a dart at a map. do i start with sugar? centuries? light em up? thanks for the memories? if they dont know any of these songs does that tell me theyve never heard a fall out boy song? no. it tells me theyve never heard those ones. dance dance, this aint a scene, the phoenix, uma thurman, i don't care. and still someones gonna come out the gate swinging to pull the rug from under me and tell me a week later they did actually know fall out boy. theyve heard the last of the real ones.

#dils declares #i pick the safe obvious choices and its NEVER FUCKING THAT.#one time i was bonding with my godbrothers girlfriend over our love of alt music #and i was like oh my favourite bands fall out boy #and she was like i dont really like fob theyre too new #she did not realise that the band formed in 2001 and released their major label debut in 2003.#this is what im dealing with.

this is a Princes in the Tower and Edward of Lancaster stan account btw

#my post #I do not want to hear one word against Edward of Lancaster #not a single one #least of all if you're a yorkist stan who thinks that edmund of rutland's death in battle at 17 by his father's enemies is a tragedy #while simultaneously thinking that edward of lancaster's death in battle at the same age by HIS father's enemies is a cause of celebration #deeply embarrassing and unserious behaviour #and where to even start with how the majority of self-declared 'Yorkists' treat the Princes in the Tower 🤡#I've truly never seen anything like it #first they try to vilify two children (including a literal 9-year-old) for being 'Woodvilles'#which in their minds is synonymous to greed/duplicity/ambition/unworthiness aka how they view the Princes' mother #then they try to deny that their vaunted Richard III murdered them even though they're perfectly willing to believe John murdered Arthur #then they try to argue that Richard III was just 'a man of his times' and downplay his actions even though his usurpation and deposition #of his pre-teen nephews absolutely broke all parameters of politically and personally acceptable behaviour in medieval England #then they try to argue that ACTUALLY the Princes don't matter and we shouldn't spend so much time talking about them #(says the person who spends all their time trying to convince people on the internet that Richard didn't kill them)#then they try to argue that finding out what happened to the Princes shouldn't affect our reading of Richard III and won't change how we #view his reign #even though it absolutely affected how contemporaries viewed him and was what provoked opposition to his rule #like. what is happening here. where is this one-sided beef against a long-dead 12-year-old and 9-year-old coming from?#are you okay?

My favorite thing about running this blog is that I'm exactly the person you would expect to be running a celestial-same-picverse blog. i am an Astronomy major. last semester i took Astronomy class. i go eat dinner with my Astronomy major friends

#okay so i haven't declared it yet but im gonna #celestial same picverse #unfortunately my astro major friends don't have tumblr #bc one of them would combust if he was exposed to this hellsite #and the other one...lowkey i think he'd like the 'verse #but now is not the time to introduce him to tumblr #the moral of the story here is that i can answer space questions

There's an English class on Golden Age detective fiction being offered next semester but the prerequisite for it is the intro to literary study class required for all English majors (which I haven't taken because I'm in a hard STEM major and don't have much time for electives, which means that I have to be really picky with my electives and only go for stuff I like AND doesn't have an awful workload) and also even if I did have that prereq, I wouldn't be able to take the class because it's at the same time as one of my major reqs. And also I'll be in two labs next semester and one of them is pure hell so like I literally don't have the time to take more than 13 credit hours (as tempting as it is to keep up my streak of taking 17-18 every semester even though it's been like really pretty bad for my social life and hobbies). Sigh. (Pressing my hand wistfully against the glass) maybe someday they'll offer the class again

#.txt #at least i had a blast in my sci-fi class this semester #i don't talk about sf on this blog because that's what my secret main is for but guys i LOVE sf you should read more sf #i'm currently sitting at an a+ in that class and my professor has been giving me SUCH good feedback on all my assignments #he used one of my short essays as the class example (which has never happened to me before!)#and also asked if he could use my creative writing midterm project as an example for future classes #and on the last day of class he quickly went through some powerpoint slides recapping the class #and on one of them he had a drawing i submitted as part of a different creative assignment :)#also we read a book from one of my all-time favorite authors in that class AND he visited our class too which was absolutely insane #won't mention the author's name because his books comprise like half the posts on my main. i'm insaaaaane i'm craaaazyyy #currently trying to figure out which topic to write my final paper on but i will definitely be writing about that book #english classes are actually such a morale boost #the only reason i'm not an english major is because that would actually for real kill me #i'm good at writing essays but the process is actually agonizing and i'm a ridiculous perfectionist when it comes to writing #so combining that with poorly medicated adhd means that i almost never turn essays in on time #and spend way too long suffering over each one to make sure they're as perfect as i can get them to be (unattainable standard)#and then they also always end up going way over the word count #for my crime fiction class in the spring i wrote a 19-page final paper about decagon house when i only needed a minimum of 8 #and i honestly could have written even more but i had to stop myself because the paper was already like 2 or 3 days late #and i had been staying up until dawn every night trying to finish it #so basically i can hardly handle having ONE english class #having to take multiple and turn in so many essays on a regular basis is a literal death sentence #i'm taking 2 upper level classes for my other major (haven't declared it yet though) this semester #and i have to write final papers for both of them :') and the instructions are super vague and they're due in a WEEK #one of them is SLIGHTLY more clear because i just need to write about the results of my research project #however. i was unfortunately only given 3 weeks (one of which was thanksgiving so basically i was only given 2)#to design and execute this whole project #and i got a little too ambitious (as i tend to do) and even though i ended up cutting out a lot of the stuff i wanted to do from the projec #it'll still definitely take ages to finish (conducted my experiments yesterday and spent 11 hours in that building. hell on earth)#and that's on top of needing to study for and take 3 final exams...

i think i deserve an award for successfully holding back my laughter when the pastor declared "christians are quickly becoming a minority group in america!"

#like motherfucker.#you dont know what being a minority group is.#christians make up the MAJORITY of america and to call them a marginalized group would be like calling grass an endangered species #there are outright declarations of christianity in the fucking PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE #he claimed he faced prejudices at work #hes a pastor #in summary the effort it took me to restrain myself from laughing my head off was immense #three pigeons in a trench coat

i love showing up to class and immediately being reminded why i generally don't talk to men

*doing icebreakers* him: oh i'm a freshman. me: oh that's cool. this is my second year here but i'm a senior. him: oh you mean you're a sophomore with senior standing because of credits and all that?

no sir, i meant exactly what i said. but hey, thanks for attempting to correct me on my own academic standing.

#toothpaste talks #hey person i don't know and doesn't know me #i have declared my major and am in my last year-ish of college #that makes me a senior

finally becoming more independent & tbh. this is fine actually dunno why I was even worried. I'm learning my way around the big city on my own & took public transport by myself for the first time & bought myself lunch & met with people & filled out paperwork n it was all literally fine. Waow

#shitboxposting #declared my major today... unfortunately the art program is an evil beast of a major so i can't dual it but that's ok #art minor will be plenty i think #now time to find a job that pays more than 14$/hr to make spreadsheets

living on campus is like being in high school except you don't get to leave at the end of class each day

#typewriter dings #i eat alone #nobody gives a shit about me #and these aren't nice people #not to anyone who's not already their friend #i left one awful place to enter another #and so many people in my major only declared it because they think its easy #I can't make meaningful connections no matter how hard i try #and i get to watch everyone else be a normal person #knowing i'm not #being here just confirms there's something horribly wrong with me that isn't wrong with other people #complaining

dad and his lady are great for giving me the opportunity to go on at length about my fervent beliefs that everyone thinks i havent thought through for some reason

#i'll rly declare some plan or desire for my future and people will act like i haven't considered the potential drawbacks and implications #what do you take me for. why does everyone think i make major life decisions lightly #this isnt even a dig at my dad and his gf theyre genuinely very good and understanding listeners #its just. fascinating to me #sometimes i feel like i'm undergoing a lil philosophical trial to prove that my convictions are sound #but the convictions in question are like ... things that i put a lot of thought into but which were ultimately very simple and logical #which i wouldnt expect to have to explain to people older than me? idk. it's interesting

Hello it’s 4:30 AM and I love Dakota language

#well not just language but… that’s the starting point #went to a dinner for the Dakota language program #since I’m one of the first officially declared majors in the new program #even tho I’m white as fuck and my explanation for why I want to learn Dakota is basically God Said So #reaffirmed all the work I’m doing and also the work yet to be done #lots of good lessons this week for how to be an ally into the future #lots of complicated emotions #which are good #more white people need to be the extreme minority in a banquet hall full of local indigenous people

jewish americans support ceasefire

I'm aware! Free Palestine!

#I can't speak for Jewish Americans #i'm just some ex-christian guy making hahas about Jesus being gay #If you just wanted my stance it's 'Free Palestine'#It's 'This is a genocide against Palestinians. Not defense of Israel'#When I said 'Jewish people deserve safe land' I don't mean it has to be Israel. It can be countries declaring their willingness to protect #refugees from antisemitism rising in their home country #Cause the majority of Jewish people don't live in Israel and don't plan to #I'm not affected by antisemitism or islamophobia directly so listen to those that are #Cause both rise with this conflict #Listen to Palestinians. Do not look to me for information. Do not look to me for confirmation of your beliefs #cause I'm just some guy sitting safe in the US #I'm not gonna act like I'm more than that
