the way that the iran/israel situation has escalated so fast into potential ww3 is terrifying but its also worth saying that if you care about palestinian lives and holding israel accountable, it's not the time to be muting tags. western media is gonna be doing its best to make iran seem like the aggressor. you'll play a part in upholding the narrative by bearing witness now.

A Better Way - No More War
A Better Way – No More War
It’s no understatement to say that there are countries so well armed in the 21st century that we as human beings have the capacity to destroy the Earth many times over. Further, for nearly 80 years, humanity has lived under that threat of mutual annihilation as if it is somehow a “good thing” as presented by various dominating nations who hold the bulk of nuclear arsenals themselves and whose…

Wait, it's been a long time since I read ASOIAF, but did Jaime flopping at Joffreys nameday journey change the history of Westeros? (In addition to leaving Ser Addam Bongwater destitute). Cause Littlefinger lost the Catspaw dagger to Robert in a bet, which was then used in the Joffrey ordered assasination of Bran, which lead to Catelyn taking Tyrion prisoner.
The flop heard around the world.
everything that ever happened in the history of asoiaf is a result of an action jaime did or did not take once he can be blamed for everything ever

Still thinking about how Edwin would feel if he knew that Orpheus and Eurydice weren't just a story.
Like, Orpheus was a real man who went to the Underworld to save the love of his life; he walked down the same stairs as Charles.
Edwin was standing were Eurydice was when he pulled Charles to face him

I finally read a good article about Austen and eighteenth-century socioeconomics that gives rough approximations of eighteenth-century prices/incomes in modern (I think c. 2014) currency, but is appropriately emphatic about just how rough those approximations must always be given drastic differences in the economic worlds we live in. It's actually much more about the economics than Austen, and particularly about how much descriptions of "middling" incomes and what was affordable to people who had those incomes is still a conversation about a tiny, tiny elite in terms of the overall population at the time.
Austen-wise, though, the author also found room for a tangent in which he goes off on a scathing condemnation of Mr Bennet in socioeconomic terms, which I do love to see. Most baronets generally had land and incomes far closer to Mr Bennet's than Darcy's and yet Mr Bennet can't be bothered to even slightly provide for his children's futures beyond what was legally required by his marriage settlement (even the girls' meagre inheritances mostly come from Mrs Bennet's money rather than his). The author acknowledges the passage about Mr Bennet saving to counteract Mrs Bennet's extravagance and also how this is an indictment of Mr Bennet as well as Mrs Bennet, something that criticisms of him often skate past, and even points out how enthusiastic Mr Bennet is about the convenience of Darcy paying for it all in a way that can be read as funny and endearing, but also as distastefully shameless.
Anyway, it was nice to enjoy an academic text again, lol.

OKAY GUYS I SWEAR THIS WILL BE MY LAST TIME REDESIGNING TH- anyway aha- Just the main four iterators this time around, because I feel like trying to draw the others again would kill me.
I felt that something wasn't quite right with my previous designs so I sat down to ponder a bit and GOD DID I PONDER
I even designed timeline based versions for Pebs and Moon this time so there's that.
(edit: FP is about 3'9 and SRS is 5'5)
Also, alt version but they can actually side eye you!! Wowie!!
Some extra notes for Moon from an earlier concept I never posted here
