There is evidence that Thomas Jefferson may have been queer
Over the weekend I went to a history conference as one does. I was looking at the program and one of the lectures caught my eye. I was like "wait is that lecture what I think it is because if it is that would be awesome" so I went. It WAS awesome. The lecture was by an archivist who is doing a project on Jefferson's writings. Her background qualifies her to analyze 18th-century letters.
So basically she was reading books because that's what librarians do and the quotation “No body knows how much I wish to be with you” was very obviously right there. She realized that no one has done research on this before and decided to be the one to do it. The lecturer is still in progress if analyzing Jefferson’s papers and library.
To be clear, this lecture states that there is not enough evidence to definitively say Jefferson was queer, but just evidence that seems to be queer. The evidence is clearly homosocial, but anything beyond that can only be inferred.
my notes (my apologies if they are confusing at any point)
hahhahehheheh Jefferson: “No body knows how much I wish to be with you” Jefferson and Page and the Intimacy of Encryption
Same talk given to LGBTQ+ group
Coded letters to John Page
Page lives at Roseburg! Jefferson went there a lot
Scared people would find his letters so be encrypted
But he liked it like it was a game
Send real info but also bestie stuff
Impossible to determine Jefferson as queer but this is just fun
How do you define letters as queer or no?
Gender switch, Greek letters, codes
Coding citizenship, gender, sexuality
Homosocial bonds develop when yapping about exchange of women
Jefferson dirty enslaver grrrr
Sally Hemmings :(
Jefferson thought libraries, newspaper, education were essential to American nationality
Letters technology of collective fantasy
Lost history of cryptology
Jefferson father of American cryptology
Homosociality and stuff
Gay? 🤨 I mean he read ancient gay stuff
Trafficking women part of this (like using wives/daughters to connect families) :(
Connect families
Cedric mother of queer theory
Tools for examining must be subtle and definitive
Variable and political
Emerging subject categories in Jefferson’s writings
William Bendamen shows that Jefferson would be aware of queerness from what is in his library
Gay porn in 18th century WHAT
he owns gay porn caught in 4k
Lots of this is encoded, destroyed, difference in language & culture
Buggery laws
THE LETTERS to Page. 20 January 1763
Friends from youth to Page’s death in 1808
Letter from Shadwell. Jefferson is around 20.
“Why can you and I not be married, too?”
The commas, references, tenses, Latin is hard to attribute
Friendship or queer is unknown
Reference to laws of human nature. Early scientific musings of relationships
Elusiveness of understanding may be intentional.
Life together supported by letter 6 months later
Rebecca Burwell. Belinda
Plans to propose to her and writes to Page from Williamsburg “Devilsburg”
Refers to Belinda as “he”
Rejected by her
If it worked he and Page related by marriage between Burwells
Written like business transaction. (trafficking of women between men)
Many homosocial letters talk about trafficking of women
Jefferson thought his letter was interception and is super paranoid
Ask Page if he found this
Jefferson freaking out and asks him to being better code. I’m going to send you this.
Develops wheel cipher
3 months later Jefferson finds out Rebecca married to something else
Page marries. Jefferson moves to Monticello, marries Martha
Last letter
I can die with sweet resignation after reading your letter
Letters from Page lost in Shadwell fire
Page and Jefferson letters are ones between young men and are representative of such
Jefferson uncomfortable with women. Kinda misogyny but he’s so confusing so it’s hard to classify
Categorizing Jefferson but it’s all connected
This is technique to secure bonds among wealthy planter elite. College friends! This is before Revolution and stuff
There is so much to cover
Jefferson weird and paper expensive. He knows papers are to be shared and he decided NUH UH.
Jefferson morals vs action
Notes on Virginia. RACIST
Black writers at bottom in notes and in library
Boooo he’s a loser
Kicks off institutionalization in America
Jefferson isn’t the only one to code
Anne Lister codes. Puts lesbian letters in crypt.
This info puts my post from a year ago about Martha Jefferson’s epitaph into context, actually! The Greek reference and gender swapping is just Thomas’s thing with people closest to him. I wonder how many others got this treatment...Jefferson and gender is really something else, like bro can't interact with women yet swaps their gender in writing. What's going on in his silly autistic (probably) brain? Referencing mythology is also pretty cool like what a nerd using ancient Greek analogies.
I always found his coding interesting but just haven’t researched it. This new research is special to me because @asica-black and I used to discuss Jefferson’s coding and think “hey do you think these were coded and he worried that people would accuse him of buggery?” and answer is most likely yes!
So yeah it seems like Jefferson had a boyfriend.
#btw buggery is 18-century for gay#bro has been added to my list of “most likely queer presidents” along with Buchanan Lincoln and JFK but there are most likely more#asica-black#hehe I called him after the conference to tell him the news#this is 'cold in my professions' (jefferson's version)#amrev#thomas jefferson#queer history#this is real research#historical scholarship#founding fathers#my notes

baffling to see that most of the scholarly conversations about all my interests in ancient performance and tragic staging are happening entirely in english EXCEPT for scholarship specifically on the ekkyklema, which is evenly divided between italian, french, german, english, and modern greek
#for the most part i (functionally monolingual english speaker) am pretty lucky that my reading list is almost all in english#*self-created reading list#there's one (1) contemporary french scholar whose stuff in french i really want to look at#and if i get into fragmentary drama it ends up involving older and/or papyrological german scholarship#but it's really overwhelmingly folks publishing in english about the things i'm interested in and citing other people in english#except the ekkyklema.#mine

Thinking about how secondary schools usually have three-word Latin mottos on the emblem to show which virtues are most exercised ("Modeste, Strenue, Sancte", "Stet Fortuna Domus"..) so having the original Bully game named Canis Canem Edit was a jab at this system while hinting at what Bullworth's climate is like.
#Im surprised I hadn't noticed sooner???#remembering every moment that emphasised the school motto#gary's 'it's sink or swim' line#and dr crabblesnitch's dialogues about 'fixing' the students#I could list so many examples of each time we see bullying not just in the school setting b/w students#but also teacher to teacher (Hattrick vs Galloway)#and student to adult#parent to parent#it's all about the strong eating the strong now because they've long since pruned the weak#oh and apparently this is not just in British schools as I initially thought#but a lot of other schools (particularly secondary) across America also have Latin mottos#bully scholarship edition#bully cce#canis canem edit#bully game#bully rockstar#bully#bully canis canem edit#cyapityy

god artists really do just pass around the same $20 bill cause dude over half my clients are other artists 😭 and usually they're the ones that tip well!! i just wish i could afford to also commission other artists and buy stuff from their shops!
#as soon as i get my grants/scholarships im gonna buy some shit from artists i like#i gotta get some things for my wall cause i live in an empty white box#im going to a zine fest soon too so im excited to talk to local artists!!#gonna splurge on 1 big poster or something#i hope someone's selling sculpted magnets or other unique decorations#i gotta make a list of ppl i wanna buy from#idk if I'll commission anyone tho cause that's a whole other deal and more expensive#idk what i would commission#it'd have to be something from an artist who can draw that thing wayyyy better than i ever could#enough to justify me spending over $50-100 cause you know im not gonna pay pennies even if they're undercharging#i swear if i had a regular job id spend money on art every month#genuinely i think my ideal achievable life rn is working a head empty office job 30 hrs a week and doing art the rest of the time#building streams of casual income until i have enough to pivot to full-time art again MAYBE#but from what ive heard from post college full time artists... that shits hard and confusing and stressful...#these tags rly lost the plot huh...#just rambling#not art

Read anything good lately?
Yes, but it's all fanfic and books about adorcism lol
#cipher talk#I have two modes: gayboy fucking and sucking and Academia/Religious Scholarship Brain#Mostly I've been reading about zār and tentatively exploring my theory that adorcism is particularly African & the unconcious philosophy#It represents in contrast to religions and cultures where exorcism is predominant#I have a book rec list/Google drive if that interests you#The gayboy stuff alas requires watching star trek first

Costumes you can put Gary in instead of the canon one cause it’s 2023 can we stop doing that mess
The joker
A werewolf (thanks to that one theory)
Maleficent
The Riddler
Headless horseman
Ringmaster
Grim reaper
Vampire
Ghostface
The devil
A king.
An angel (the irony)
And as to those who disagree with me or find this trivial, please understand that Gary wearing that costume is on the same level as the Burton related missions, as well as paparazzi. I’m Fr not about to argue over this, shouldn’t even HAVE to, but if you have an issue take a tissue and seek permanent residency in my block list.
#cause we Fr need to stop drawing him in that costume#the ick#anyone who disagrees can take permanent residency in my block list#it’s canon I know#but it’s not better than the paparazzi and Burton missions#bully scholarship edition#bully canis canem edit#canis canem edit#bully anniversary edition#bully cce#bully rockstar#bullworth academy#gary smith#gary smith cce

mary + harin headcanons
(mary belongs to @gordismybabygirl , check her out!) ───✱*.。:。✱*.:。✧*.。✰ ───
(here’s a silly little moodboard)
harin has little to no experience with preppies, except her making out with bif taylor in the parking lot. she still likes to think about that all the time.
when she met mary, and realized she was…nice?? she got confused. preppies weren’t supposed to be as nice as mary was. she got a bit worried, what if she was just using her?
that all changed that one day when mary opened up to her. harin knew that it was only the nice people who were nice enough to come crying to her, especially about stuff like.. not wishing she was rich?
she would then let her in, and accept mary. she’d let mary open up to her and talk to her and do her hair and whatever. but would harin open up to mary? no way, she shouldnt. she couldn’t. she wouldn’t dare.
takes mary to watch the sunset almost constantly, it slowly became a daily ritual for those two.
asks her all about boy advice, she thinks mary is pretty and lucky that she has a boyfriend.
at first gets confused by mary’s questions about her accent, culture, and whatnot but then she accepts it and rolls along with it.
im gonna say that their both big fans of the smiths just because
“mary?” “yes dear?” “how are you so pretty?”

rip luxu you would've loved watching "real housetoons of disney town" or whatever
oh 100% xigbar would be into trashy reality TV. the trashier the better. yells at the screen like he's watching sports. hear him all the way across the castle that never was yelling "OH that BITCH"
i think there might be some soap operas he'd like, too. theyd have to be REALLY dramatic though. ive thought about drawing him watching general hospital and reacting to his own va's character on that show but that would require watching his va act in a live action thing and for some reason i get really bad secondhand embarrassment from anything involving james patrick stuart outside of xigbar, so . there are dreams that cannot be
#like fullbody torturous cringe response. cannot fucking do it#to the point that theres a bit in re:mind that i mute every time i watch it because his vocal delivery makes me want to die. in a bad way#its when they give him the giant list of characters to read in that one cutscene with mx and saix#and he says ''riku replica'' like hes squinting at smudged writing on his hand. cant fucking stand it. idk!!!#wish i could tell you why! it's also why ive never listened to any of his singing despite him having like. albims and shit#they're all just voice reels for auditions/resumes anyway. thats how acting is. lot of actors can also sing. doesnt make them singers#kh#blakeposts#asks#xigbar scholarship tag

Me removing a Graves reference and then realising the entire page is just shit.
#at least I am just resignedly adding them to my account’s Wikipedia page’s to-do list rather than just leaving the tab open#14 down btw#yesterday I got to write this whilst removing something:#There are several things wrong with Graves' interpretation#but the most damning is probably that no evidence of this ancient cannibalism has ever been found#and thus it cannot be an explanation for the myth.#It is unsuitable for an encyclopaedia to have an entire section be nothing more than a lengthy quote of dubious scholarship.#felt good ngl

What Do I Ship?
Don't mistake this for a tolerance or tier list. I will read and write ships that aren't even on this list, or write ships from the secondary list sometimes, this is just to give you a general sense of the stuff I mainly support/think about and in what capacity. Might be updated periodically. Ranting and comments in the tags.
Re: the Mokuba ships, I only ship them in non-problematic ways, where either the Kaiba brothers are ageswapped, making Mokuba the same age as the rest of the main cast, or where they only get together far post-canon where Mokuba's an adult. We cool? Cool.
Primary Ships
(things I can/want to create content for; this does not include every ship I've ever written, just the ones I care about/are currently engaged in writing/plan to write multiple fics for, or ships I just stan in a way that I know it'll never end)
Euroshipping (Kaiba x Ryou)
Puppyshipping (Joey x Kaiba)
Mumbleshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Duke)
Teaseshipping (Joey x Ryou x Kaiba)
Snareshipping (Joey x Duke)
Trustshipping (Kaiba x Ishizu)
Polarshipping (Joey x Mai)
Blueshipping (Kisara x Kaiba)
Mizushipping (Kisara x Priest Seto)
Minorshipping (Ryou x Duke)
Mastershipping (Duke x Kaiba)
Puffshipping (Joey x Ryou)
Sweetshipping (Ryou x Mokuba)
Wintershipping (Mokuba x Amane)
Rollshipping (Duke x Ryou x Joey)
Secondary Ships
(things I will read but I don't write {much, or anymore, in some cases} for one reason or other)
Wishshipping (Joey x Yugi)
Powershipping (Kaiba x Marik)
Graceshipping (Ishizu x Ryou)
Doubtshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Marik)
Petshipping (Duke x Kaiba x Joey)
Axisshipping (Kaiba x Siegfried)
Angstshipping (Ryou x Marik)
Irateshipping (Marik x Joey)
Buddyshipping (Joey x Tristan)
Heartshipping (Yugi x Ryou)
Fragileshipping (Yami Yugi x Ryou)
Changeshipping (Duke x Marik)
Logicshipping (Priest Seto x Priestess Isis)
Gemshipping (Ryou x Thief King Bakura)
Thiefshipping (Yami Bakura x Marik)
Candleshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Yami Bakura)
Antagoshipping (Kaiba x Yami Bakura)
Corruptshipping (Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura)
Stoicshipping (Kaiba x Priest Seto)
Shimmershipping (Duke x Mokuba)
Guardshipping (Kaiba x Roland)
Senetshipping (Ishizu x Duke)
Angelicshipping (Ryou x Rafael)
Mercuryshipping (Kisara x Kaiba x Ishizu)
Entrepreneurshipping (Duke x Kaiba x Siegfried)
Unnamed (Aigami x Marik x Yami Bakura)
Scholarshipping (Kaiba x Ishizu x Ryou)
There's also plenty of random unnamed poly ships that I want to play around with in one-shots, usually a combo of my top six fave characters.
#rose talks#my ships#ship list#creating this post just to link to it in my pinned post. don't mind me.#i might add a third section called “i just think they're neat”#what happened with thiefshipping is that I worked really hard on a one-shot for it and was pretty proud of it#but then it got like no attention and i figured my characterization must have been way off#so i didn't try to write it again after that#i wrote a lot of Marik one-shots a long time ago but I don't think my characterization of him was actually that good#that's why i haven't really written him outside of Rock Bottom in a long time#if you put kaiba ryou duke joey marik in a jar and jumble them all up and pour 2 or 3 of them out. i ship anything that comes out.#almost the same if you replace marik with ishizu but i don't see her and joey working out (unless maybe to gang up on kaiba)#currently intrigued by the idea of kaiba/ryou/ishizu and i would call that scholarshipping if the name wasn't already taken#also just discovered mercuryshipping and i think that would be so fascinating#i think guardshipping can easily be problematic but it doesn't have to be. i think it can be kinda sweet if done right.#re: the mokuba ships i've had someone tell me that shipping child characters with anyone is gross EVEN IF you age them up and um no#every adult ever is an aged-up child. that's how life works.#i'm so much more interested in mokuba as an adult than as a child anyways. just purely from a character perspective#because damn. who knows what this boy will become. ya know? it's about the potential
