Between the journey of Eyjafjalla getting closure from her parents’ death, the sheep, and Bison becoming more independent, the most eye-opening thing is that Snowsant is Swire’s sugar baby.

"In some such families, brothers practiced what is known as temporary marriages, where several brothers would marry a single wife, who would bear heirs to all of them in turn. While the Roman ideology of the univira, a woman's devotion to one husband, seems at odds with the practice of temporary marriage, the way Crassus stepped into his brother's marriage suggests that his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry in order to secure the family's future. When his brother died, Crassus took the opportunity to move from uncle to husband, a move that may have served his own interests as well as fraternal pietas."

[The brothers of Romulus: fraternal Pietas in Roman law, literature, and society by Bannon, Cynthia Jordan]

@p-clodius-pulcher showed me this crazy quote, wherein "his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry" made me go "so you are saying in a later era, Crassus would be a priest".

OHHHH THIS IS DELICIOUS. every discussion revolving around Crassus' marriage to his sister-in-law is so so fun. we have archaic traditions & obligations, there's the matter of keeping the dowry in the family (which in turn lends to a fun exploration of the economy at the time, wrt to crassus' father's policy making), & combined together, there's something to be said for the reasoning that the brother-sister marriage records of roman egypt may have had more to do with keeping property in the family.

but now with fraternal pietas? HELLO!! new things to think about. I'm going to unpack this with a magnifying glass.

Seeing a lot of comparisons between vaultghoul and reylo and:

Listen, ship your ships; that's the tumblr way, and I'm not here to judge you

But for me, that's bullshit.

I personally checked out of the star wars films when it was clear finnrey was being shelved in favor of reylo

Because finnrey had the chemistry, and I could feel that reylo was being forced. I could tell from the writing. I could tell from the acting. I could tell from the interviews.

Such is not the case with vaultghoul. Is it a slightly fucked up ship? Yeah, but we're all freaks here.

The chemistry is there. It was there from the jump. It's easily perceived in every scene, and none of it feels forced.

That doesn't mean vaultknight doesn't fit; their smiles are sunshine. Their heart-eyes are sweet as apple pie. I'm not mad about it, but the chemistry just doesn't quite seep through the screen as easily.

Instead, I found myself yelling "DO YOU NOT SEE THE WAY THEY'RE LOOKING AT YOU?" every time Max had a scene with Dane.

This is a ramble, but what I'm saying is: chemistry in media is a thing, and everyone perceives it differently. I didn't get reylo. And I don't see vaultghoul as a second-coming of that ship.

It's its own thing, in its own fucked up little way. And it's fun.

The fact that Taylor was working on the TTPD section of the tour for 8 or 9 months means she was ideating and creating while literally on tour already doing a 3.5 hour show night after night. As if that wasn’t enough she was also releasing re-recordings, planning album rollouts, directing videos and actively recording stuff. Most creative people would be hard pressed to juggle more than one of those things at a time and she’s doing them all at once not to mention we know for a fact her output isn’t slowing down anytime soon thanks to rep & debut tv + directing a feature film like!!! the size of the creative bandwidth in her brain needs to be studied.

Guess who this ones about; lol!

TBH I also think Teal'c's symbiote was criminally underused as a character.

[kujakumai]

law of cinematic parallels and host-spirit physical resemblance forces us to assume that beneath the scar tissue and the six pack TKB had the features of a delicate prettyboy

Apparently this is a tan? Whatever. Goal completed, I guess!

My last three dnd characters have had massive buffs to Persuasion and insight and been dumb as a box of rocks. No fun etymology facts here, just intricate and infallible knowledge of the labyrinthine human (or elf, etc) soul. She can't pronounce polysyllables but she can sell a bicycle to a fish.

Embarrassingly transparent.

one thing about me is that i will be anxious that i am being extremely annoying and no one is telling me. desperately need his severe lack of filter and openly annoying tendencies

hey why do we always draw caitlyn so that she looks skinny as fuck? like ridiculously skinny? like no internal organs skinny? yes i know she’s skinny in the show but that’s never stopped tumblr fanartists before!! i feel like it’s getting more and more exaggerated to the point of feeling weird and beauty-standard-y and unrealistic. we know that vi would kiss a caitlyn with a little bit (or a lot) of tummy !!!!

Tuvok noting that the number of crewmen with framed photographs of captain Janeway is alarming. There's nothing to really DO about it but it is alarming nonetheless.

i do have trouble understanding people going "it's always morally correct to cheat during formal education" while talking about university. nobody is, in fact, forcing you to be there? you're just wasting your own time at this point?

I'm starting to analyze the culture wars in terms of the two biggest opposed factions being people trying to cargo-cult the 1950s without the infrastructure that propped it up, pitted against rich women with 19th century values, moving through a very homosocial social order like Victorians.
