ive touched on this a little before (in comic form) but if you took young, pre-transgender-realization me aside and said something like "if you could push a button to turn you into a boy forever, would you do it?"

I wouldve either said "No." or "What? i dont know. No?"

but if you had asked me "when you get older, would you rather grow into an older woman? Or an older man?" (now this is just for me being binary trans, obviously there are more options than these two)

i genuinely think that question would've given me pause. I would've had to think about it, and it would've stuck with me. Maybe I even might've realized something sooner through it

#theres some people who say yes to the magic button (and thats totally okay)#but just because you wouldnt doesnt mean thats all there is #i was always scared of becoming like - a 40 year old woman #that was my worst fear lol #if you'd said 'you could be a 40 year old man someday instead' i wouldve been like #oh.... maybe that would be okay...

"The division between the two families [the Woodvilles and the Nevilles] and their allies can be seen in the royal charters that they witnessed. Warwick, Rivers and Archbishop Neville of York, while serving as chancellor and afterwards, were fairly constant witnesses to royal charters and consequently often appeared together. This was not, however, the case for other family members and friends. From 1466 to 1469, if Scales or Woodville associates like Sir John Fogge, John Lord Audley or Humphrey Lord Stafford of Southwick witnessed royal charters, then members of the Neville group, such as John Neville, earl of Northumberland, or John Lord Wenlock would not, and vice versa. Discounting the ubiquitous Warwick, Rivers and Archbishop Neville, of the twenty-four charters issued between February 1466 and June 1469, twelve were witnessed by men associated with the Woodvilles, eight by men associated with the Nevilles and two were witnessed by no member of either group beyond the two earls at their heads and the archbishop; only two charters, both from 1466, featured associates of both families.

Such striking segregation of witnesses suggests that something more than simple convenience or availability was at play. [...] The evidence of these witness lists does show the extent of the split between the two groups from early in Edward's [first] reign and of the need for political society to work with that cleavage in the heart of the Yorkist regime."

-Theron Westervelt, "Royal charter witness lists and the politics of the reign of Edward IV"

*This is specifically applicable for Edward IV's first reign; in contrast, the charters in his second reign displayed a great deal of aristocratic and domestic unity and cohesion.

#the woodvilles #edward iv #wars of the roses #richard neville 16th earl of warwick #my post #elizabeth woodville #Obviously I hate the idea of Elizabeth and her family being seen as a social-climbing invasive species who banished the old nobility and #drove Warwick/Richard into rebellion and dominated the government and controlled the king and were responsible for Everything Wrong Ever #but I also dislike the 'revisionist' idea that they were ACTUALLY just passive and powerless bystanders or pawns who kept to their #social “place” (whatever the fuck that means). Frankly speaking this is more of a diminishment than a realistic defense.#the 'Queen's kin' (as they were known at the time) were very visible at court and demonstrably influential and prominent in politics #and as this shows there DOES seem to have been a genuine division/conflict between them and the Nevilles during Edward's first reign #(which DID directly lead to the decline of Neville dominance in England though the maintained honored positions and influence of their own)#Especially since Edward's second reign was entirely void of any such divisions - instead the nobility were united and focused on the King #even Clarence and Gloucester's long and disruptive quarrel over the Warwick inheritance never visibly left its mark on charters #so the Woodville/Neville divide from the 1460s must have been very sharp and divisive indeed #And yes it's safe to say that Elizabeth Woodville was probably involved: whether in her own right or via support of her family - or both -#it's illogical to argue that she was uninvolved (even the supportive Croyland Chronicle writes that Edward was “too greatly influenced”#by her; she and her family worked together across the 1470s; she was the de-facto head in 1483; etc)#Enhanced by the fact that Elizabeth was the first Englishwoman to be crowned queen - meaning that the involvement of her #homeborn family marked the beginning of “a new and largely unprecedented factor in the English power structure” (Laynesmith)#This should be kept in mind when it comes to analyzing contemporary views of them and of Elizabeth's own anomalous position #HOWEVER understanding the complexity of the situation at hand doesn't mean accepting the traditionally vilified depiction of the Woodvilles #Warwick and the Nevilles remained empowered and (at least outwardly) respected by the regime #Whether he was driven by disagreements over foreign policy or jealousy or ambition - the decision to rebel was very much his own #Claiming that the Woodvilles were primarily responsible is ridiculous (and most of the nobility continued to support Edward regardless)#There's also the fact that Warwick took what was probably a basic factional divide and turned it into a misogynistic and classist narrative #of a transgressive “bad” woman who became queen through witchcraft and aggrandized a family of social-climbing “lessers” who replaced #the inherently more deserving old nobility and corrupted the realm - later revived and intensified by Richard III a decade later #ie: We can recognize their genuine division AND question the (false/unfair) problematic narrative around the Woodvilles. Nuance is the key.

#so my mom's wake thing was today and that was a lot. not in an emotional sense but in a im standing here talking for 3hrs #to ppl i dont kno or barely kno. ya kno? but it was good bc so many ppl showed up to talk abt her #so many people. my mom made a huge impact on the school system. so many ppl relied on her. she encouraged at least 2 ppl to get their #master. for one person to specilize in helping the dyslexic after her experience advocating for 3 dyslexic daughters. she wrote and was #awarded a 10000 dollar grant for special needs and intervention curriculum. which will affect so many lives.#everyone loved her. she's gonna get a track meet named after her and a scholarship created in her honor.#she was an amazing person and she affected a lot of lives and im glad she was my mom. and she raised at least one jem in my littlest #sister who is so sweet and is a great teacher. god but there was some weird stuff too. were pretty sure her old boss was in love with her.#and there were some weird comments abt her being a strong woman or this woman doing so much and its like hm y do i detect a note of sexism #y not say she was an amazing person? y the surprise? weird comments about how pretty i looked. which yes i looked great lol. my funeral fit #was cute. we did bright colors bc it was a celebration not a dower event. and im sure it was ment well but it was a lil weird. and then #everyone was telling my grandma what a great job she did raising my mom and like god fuck off she didn't do jack. my mom was great despite #her terrible mother. ugh. but altogether it was good that everyone was able to express their love for her. it was def a day that was for #them mostly. i mean partly for us but mostly for them. none of us even cried. ay but we have 2 more parties in her honor #bc everyone loved her so much we have to do one in her hometown too. plus a personal friends get together. ugh. im so tired #i wish i wasnt the most awkward. eye contact avoidant person in the room but like ya kno. what can ya do?#unrelated

I know I’ve made other posts talking about or alluding to this but like. obviously there are like the old hollywood movies in the sort of dyke subtext canon (all about eve, rebecca, johnny guitar, etc) but like. there are so many movies that like 10 people have seen but I have such a clear gay vision or interpretation for it. most of them aren’t even GOOD. and yet!!

like the great lie is the one that haunts me the most (or the women but I think that one is kind of different for me perhaps bc I’ve already talked about it here a lot or perhaps bc I think of it as being more well known and watched than I think it actually is? actually it’s probably that I think it is an overall good and well executed and entertaining movie which isn’t really true of most of these tbh). but I also think a lot about like when ladies meet, or old acquaintance, or sadie mckee, or the shining hour, or the model and the marriage broker, or a woman’s secret, or the bigamist, or craig’s wife, or born to be bad, or separate tables, or even dark victory to a degree. others too certainly those are just the ones that come to mind. for half of these it’s not even like oh these women are gay together it’s just like hey I think she’s a lesbian. and I’m right. but my genius will never be fully appreciated in my day unfortunately.

#a woman’s secret has kind of been haunting me since I watched it like a week or so ago in that it’s literally got so many interesting #pieces and facets and I find so much of it very interesting but they just like really don’t dig in or come together so it’s enough that #I think about it and not remotely satisfying which I’m beginning to think is just how I feel about nicholas ray’s stuff. I don’t really #have a large sample but like born to be bad is not a movie that I think is good but it has like infected me somehow. which i did and still #do largely attribute to joantaine. but like idk. and also I wanted to like Johnny guitar and obviously there’s a lot of interesting stuff #in there to dissect it just… feels unsatisfying/like it doesn’t come together. idk what it is.#also like it is fully sampling bias that across the three I listed as noted subtext and then all the others I listed #there’s uh. 4 joan crawford movies 4 bette davis movies 3 joan fontaine movies #but it’s still really funny to me lmao… I will say how did I not list ANY babs movies… that can’t be right… I mean like night nurse #and ladies they talk about def have some gay moments and like. walk on the wild side exists lmao #but I wouldn’t really consider any of those to be consistent with the thing I’m trying to describe here lol #anyways. I think that’s enough rambling for now.#old hollywood #my post #also I would happily expand on my vision for any of these lmao. it’s just that I think it generally requires a certain familiarity with the #movie itself and. a lot of these I wouldn’t necessarily recommend? not that they’re all bad just like. not incredible idk #which kind of hinders this a bit. and now like I could give background provide clips etc but then that’s requiring a level of effort #that I’m not gonna spontaneously exert while sitting in bed Thinking. which is what this post is lmao. (‘that’s enough rambling for now’#I said several tags ago… a fact which I could easily change but shan’t.)#(edit of prior tags to say that I wrote the tags before mentioning the women in this post bc idk for a moment I lived in a world in which #everyone knew the women was about dykes. so anyways it’s now 5 joan movies 4 joantaine movies #which is neat. the sampling bias is also fun bc like yes 5 joan movies is a lot to mention but I’ve seen like 30 joan movies so.#of course there are other movies of hers where I would be calling her gay but like im less invested. joantaine is a lot funnier to me bc #I’ve only actually seen 7 joantaine movies. and like ok including the bigamist is admittedly wild given that my queer interpretation of it #is like. her and ida lupino who do not so much as meet in the film. but the extent to which I wish they did fuels me)

Lark the Sisterman laughed. "Small Paul, thick as a castle wall," he mocked. -Prologue (Chett), aSoS Pyp always teased Grenn about being thick as a castle wall, so Sam explained patiently. -Samwell II, aSoS [Jaime, to Brienne:] "Are you as thick as a castle wall? That was an apology. I am tired of fighting with you. What say we make a truce?" -Jaime V, aSoS

in storm, published after the first dunk and egg tale, suddenly a new phrase is being thrown around to insult people. and hmmm, all three characters mocked with these word are all v good-sized BIG and TALL types, not unlike ser duncan the tall, who introduced the phrase. and hmmm, the third of these characters, brienne of tarth, is later further linked to dunk in her own pov, when she recalls finding an old shield in her father's castle described just like dunk's uniquely picturesque coat-of-arms. and hmmm, the fuller version of the insult dunk repeats in his head is "Dunk the lunk, thick as a castle wall and slow as an aurochs." who else is insulted as an aurochs? that's right, the second mocked character above, grenn. so what i'm saying is i think bri and grenn are distant cousins of some sort, and if anyone's keeping track of things catelyn stark and jon snow have in common (besides disliking theon and finding jaime hot) then you should add earning the loyalty of a descendant of the noble line of ser duncan the tall aka dunk the lunk.

#valyrianscrolls #asoiaf meta #asoiaf #brienne of tarth #duncan the tall #grenn of the duncanlings #small paul #(yes i think it credible enough to make a grenn tag)#i do not believe every word grrm uses has a deeper meaning but when he throws this in there with characters of dunk's physical build #yeah there's a reason. 'pyp always said grenn was thick as a castle wall' really sam? bc i've never read him say it before #hodor is the other likely duncanling w bran's weirwood fb of the tall knight and knowing dunk will go to wf later #but we have no confirmation yet that the tall guy bran saw is dunk nor that the woman was old nan before she was old #i do think it's true tho #but the other names people throw seem to be just anyone tall #but surely there were tall peope umbers and baratheons and all before and after dunk unrelated to him. grrm loves to scale up normal sizes #(c)lsb

WHICH SYMBOLIC FRUIT ARE YOU?

Cherry. (Man, this is going to need some tag rambling; because while it's what I suspected and it's very fitting in many ways, I need to address one element).

In popular culture, cherries have come to represent sensuality, sex, and seduction. In the cult classic, Twin Peaks, Audrey Horne expresses her sexual expertise by tying a cherry stem with her tongue. "Cherry" is also used to refer to the concept of virginity: why? I don't know to be honest, but here we are. Much like the cherry, you're a sensual person who enjoys all the creature comforts the world offers. You enjoy delicious food, dynamic relationships, passionate lovemaking and stimulating conversation; however, you may also come across a touch vapid or shallow, due to your quickly fading attention when something has served its usefulness to you. To quote some man on tinder: "you're here for a good time, not a long time". You can come across, at times, slightly tart, carrying a bit of a bite to you that not everyone can handle. That’s okay: you’re an acquired taste!

Tagged: @basbousah (Thank you 🩷) Tagging: I don't tend to tag for quizzes easily but this one was actually fun, so let's harass. @immobiliter (how about Furina?) @kushtibokt @genus83 @genius81 @spiderwarden @delusionaid (Wriothesley, or Zhongli— porque no los dos? 🤭) @apocryphis (Topaz) @aventvrina @resolutepath (Elio) @daybreakrising (Blade) @astrxlfinale @kahakera @cygnor @chasersglow @scrtilegii (Jing Yuan)... and anyone else who'd like to do it, say I tagged you because I'd love to see the results!

#[ games. ] the game only works when we follow the rules; though i'll be none the wiser if they're broken. let morality be your guide.#[ this has been open in a tab since yesterday. ]#[ okay but i actually /love/ this result. BUT LET ME SPECIFY-- to those who haven't read my other post. ]#[ please read 'sex' and 'seduction' through a very old fashioned lens. very old fashioned. ]#[ and then i think it's a lot more fitting. think film noir/1940s femme fatale /instead/ of the modern femme fatale and you got it. ]#[ seductive in the way that a woman can be inherently alluring. ]#[ sex in the way that it /is/ something she engages in. but in the way that one does without overindulging at all. no promiscuity. ]#[ i'm not saying religious-type 'it means everything'. but i'll forever live by that line by blade. ]#[ “she must have sought something extraordinary. everything she does comes at a great cost.” ]#[ the thing is-- he knows she lacks fear. so i don't see 'at a great cost' being a value tied to anything because of personal risk. ]#[ or fear of chasing after it. it also means something that it comes from blade. who likely also has an interesting tie to 'fear'. ]#[ but any way that means 'at a great cost' means investment/engagement (time. effort. sacrifice?) ]#[ which shows a deep rooted dedication to something. which speaks to me of a certain passion that needs to propel something like that. ]#[ and if we take passion into the equation-- then i think that fits for how she speaks and handles everything blade and tb-related. ]#[ then i also can see 'sex' very fitting. she would; when engaging in it; be incredibly all-encompassing but not in a 'dominatrix' way. ]#[ nor a traditional 'dominant' way. but simply incredibly present. engaged. passionate. ]#[ those two things can fit incredibly next to sensuality if you simply look at it from a specific lens that isn't casual and/or modern. ]#[ outside of that... dynamic relationships? ☑️ stimulating conversation? ☑️ which PLAYS INTO THE NEXT PART. ]#[ which is /yes/ she is bored. she gets bored. you /need/ to be able to stimulate her by having something of your own to interest her. ]#[ she also wouldn't/doesn't like people who serve her every whim. no. have your own interests. ]#[ as to elaborate on an acquired taste: she isn't everyone's cup of tea. if you don't have something that interests her-- you won't... ]#[ enjoy being around her. if she doesn't /like/ you. you won't think she's fun. in /that/ she's an acquired taste. ]#[ and has a bit of a bite. ]

When people try to insult your mom to upset you but your mom is genuinely an awful person:

#be like I don't care about her sex life man #i wosh she didn't have one at all but noooo she had to fuck my dad #and it's never like “your mom sucks”#cause then I could say “yes” and we would agree #it's always “I fucked yer mom”!! and like #😬 yikes. i would pass on the 66 year old woman with the emotional maturity of a teenager who only talks about herself but I mean #you do you? i guess?

Weird encounter today. Was in a field with Hallow and my friend’s pug- had been playing with and training Hallow but we were just sitting in the grass taking a break. Noticed an older man walking by a nearby apartment complex- he clocked us, changed directions to start walking our way, JUMPED A FENCE to get into this field, continued walking towards us. He was smiling and obviously looking at Hallow and I started shaking my head at him like “no” because I knew Hallow was going to pop off the second I started talking to this guy. The head shaking didn’t slow him down and I eventually had to yell over “she’s not friendly, sorry.” Now Hallow is yelling at him and he stops but doesn’t go away. He’s like “oh I was going to offer to walk her for you.” ?????? And I was like oh no thank you. He continues to stare at Hallow as she yells and he says “she’s pretty protective huh?” And I was like yep. Finally he walked away from where he came (had to climb the fence again) but literally what the fuck

#yes by all means it’s a great idea when you’re a 60 year old man to approach a small woman and a GSD that is hard staring at you #when they’ve clearly chosen a quiet spot away from other people #genuinely I think most people who do weird shit like this are harmless or just being friendly but you never know and it’s still weird #hallow is not protective but I wasn’t about to tell him that and I’m grateful for her suspicion of ppl who do weird shit and her scary bark

On the bright side, I’m 3 months into my new medical treatment — this is when you really start to notice changes, and because I’ve already started to notice significant improvement in my chronic illness, I expect to really start feeling better soon!

But at the same time, I now take enough pills in the morning that I think it counts as an appetizer for my breakfast 😭

#I joke about secretly being an old woman but more and more the jokes are becoming my reality #why yes I do take 20 pills daily and wear chanel number 5 and have two cats and love wearing wool sweaters bc I’m always cold #if it means I’ll never have a 5 year-long stomach ache again then I’ll take it

Just... gonna leave this here. Without any further comment.

Take it as you will.

"You think you own whatever land you land on The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim But I know every rock and tree and creature Has a life, has a spirit, has a name You think the only people who are people Are the people who look and think like you But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew

[...]

Come roll in all the riches all around you And for once, never wonder what they're worth

[...]

How high does the sycamore grow? If you cut it down, then you'll never know And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon For whether we are white or copper skinned We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain We need to paint with all the colors of the wind You can own the Earth and still All you'll own is Earth until You can paint with all the colors of the wind"

--partial lyrics from "Colors of the Wind", from the Disney film, Pocahontas (released in 1995)

#i lied #i can't NOT “further comment”#because yes I'm aware there are A LOT of issues with the movie and the historical aspects of the story but #THAT IS NOT THE POINT #we can get into a whole issue and discussion on the wrongs committed with colonialism that would take FOREVER #again-- not the point #just... look at the lyrics #the meaning of the lyrics #because there are A LOT of people in the world today who need a reminder #from a song in a CHILDREN'S movie that came out almost 30 years ago #and now as I typed that I'm like... wait? it's almost 30 years old?!#damn #ramblings of a mad woman #I don't even know if there are “proper” tags for this #so yeah

you’ve probably already read it before, but the poem Party by Kim Addonizio really got me tonight. first thought was “oh man. yeah” and then my second thought was “how can i make this about my hockey guys somehow………..”anyway! have a good one!

oh. oh.

#don’t think i’ve read this kim addonizio poem and it just blindsided me like a truck thank you so much #i. oh god. like yeah.#pour me shitfaced into your car i feel like you own a comforter extremely dysfunctional only in surface details like which person was the #black hole and the distant spark in space that might’ve been a star there’s something too with unrelenting mist / many-headed mist / missed #who knew mis(t)/sed had undone so many. while you keep an eye on the burner here’s hoping this flame doesn’t go out #the flame as in the spark as in don’t let me have pinned my hopes on you to watch it burn out again but also me. like please let me not go #and i think there’s something there too with the repetitive ‘i have just met you’ and i already love you that reminds me both of a story #colman domingo told abt meeting his partner i cry everytime i hear it right when he says ‘i think i love u &you’re about to change my life’#and i KNOW there’s another poem. and i feel like it maybe has a dog and it talks about how they don’t even know you but they love you #OH IT’S ALSO. OH MY GOD THAT’S IT. i mean not exactly so maybe i have read this before & it’s what has been haunting me for so long but #the opening line to tim seibles naïve is ‘i love you but i don’t know you’ - mennonite woman #the odds of that dog poem being a carl phillips poem is non-zero btw. his poems about dogs make me see shrimp colors (bertuzzi thesis)#ANYWAY. agreed. this is incredibly hockey and incredibly hurtful because they DO bond like this in 0.0001 seconds because if you can’t #you’re fucked. you have to just find somebody and fall in love with them and it’s the salmon and the triple cream brie like they got taken #out to some fancy meet the donors team night in their suits and one of them is dealing with a heartbreak and a trade and are the things #they think true or are they just missing what the used to have. jamie who used to empty and refill the ice tray YES sorry i have been a #little bit thinking that about the trevor dealing so poorly with the breakup and i wish i had another narrative (which i do) but it fits #trade deadline tragedy #and also the formation of a codependent rookies like. two guys that get drafted and brought up together and suddenly they’re doing #everything together and it’s your first time in the big show and none of your old college friends understand because they’re not there #and you can’t get it. like you think you know but they can’t understand and the loneliness and it IS guys taking care of each other #(alexa play harriet by hey rosetta! but specifically the bridge) and it’s just. i just!!! trying to fill up the missing pieces of your life #like i cannot convey WHOMST i am trying to pin this narrative to this is going to rotate for a long while i think #because it’s not a wild i fell in love with you at first sight it’s a you were kind to me when i was broken. and i love you for that.#like who is FALLING APART &happens to fall into someone else’s arms. purely for the partygirl aspect the devil (old hrpf) says ‘13 bennguin #who among us hasn’t fallen mildly briefly brilliantly in love with a stranger and imagined a future where you get everything you want #sometimes we love people for who they are and sometimes we love them for what we’re not and sometimes for who we think they’ll be #this was a very long way to say thank you for sharing <3 i will also be making this about my hockey guys <3 #OH MY GOD IT’S DPAIRS. WHO’S BEEN THROUGH SEVERAL DPAIRS #nonny <3

pulling out my baby connor themes and motifs conspiracy corkboard which i use to figure out if i have any preferences or character traits if any kind. putting a red string between "digital love" from daft punks discovery (2001) and "dancing sheep to sheep" from classical baby - dance show (2005). similar theming...

#i suppose we cna perhaps but once upon a dream from sleeping beauty in there that was one kf my fvaorite disney princess songs as a baby #even tho i didnt watch sleeping beauty very often #Yes i was a major disney princess fan as a kid Sry. as mentioned fairies + princesses were kind of a joint hyperfixation and yes disney #princesses were big. glancing at my collection of disney princess baby dolls (i had Almost all of them (from before they started putting #hair on all of them. which i hated i liked that rapunzel had hair but like 8 year old me or whatever was pissed as fuckkkkkk that baby anna #and elsa had hair too i was like Fucking. shut up .... the other girls just had molded on short hair but NOW they only make them with long #hair. does not matter. anyways.#the connection is 'guy dreaming abt dancing with a woman but then (in the words of digital love) “before i knew it this dream was all gone”'#interesting. i dont think this actully means anything but i do remember likinf dancing sheep to sheep but i think i liked all of them #except i thought rectangles was kinda ugly. but i liked the music

i know people are just trying to be friendly but coworkers PLEASE stop asking me what im reading or listening to. the answer is never going to be normal im sorry.

#and also you're never going to recognize what im reading #and i dont mean that in a hipster way #right now im reading dragon age tevinter nights #like. yes let me explain this to you 50 year old highly traditional woman who thinks i am a nice young man #and what am i listening to? an unfinished musical made by some guy on tiktok about the odyssey. what about it.#these are not answers i want to give to coworkers but saying 'none of your business' is rude!!!!
