[elderscrollsconceptart]

Broke:

Ulfric is an agent of the Thalmor. He was set up to sow dissent in the empire and weaken it from within

Woke:

Ulfric was an agent of the Thalmor but only out of necessity due to lack of any institutional support for his grievances against the empire.

Bespoke:

The Thalmor are agents of the Stormcloaks. They threaten the empire military and force it to direct its forces south so the only significant Imperial forces in Skyrim are auxiliary. Ulfric could never face the full legions of the empire but with the renewed Thalmor threat from the south, Ulfric is poised to capture full military control of Skyrim.

saw yet another costuber trip all over themselves to not ‘mess up’ the corsets vs stays terminology and this is my contribution to that debate @marzipanandminutiae

to explain, if anyone’s getting confused: conical 18thc ‘stays’ and hourglass 19thc ‘corsets’* are often conflated and people get mad about this. in reality, the terminology was SUPER loose and depending on what language you spoke, where you lived in each country, how attuned to fashion you were, etc. you might call your foundation garment ‘stays’ even in the late 19thc, or you might call it a ‘corset’ in the 18thc. They both mean the same thing. ultimately it’s just a timeframe thing with the terminology and tbh unless you are a publishing fashion historian i do not care if you call marie antoinette’s undergarment a corset because you’re technically still right <3

yes, most experts use these words with the specific meanings of ‘19thc undergarment made in an hourglass shape, often with a metal separating busk’ and ‘18thc undergarment in a conical shape boned with reed or baleen’ etc etc but the moral of the story here is that it’s okay to not remember which is which and correctness depends on the circumstance anyway. don’t be too hard on people for messing them up.

part of the problem linguistically is that the boning itself was referred to as ‘stays’, so you get ‘corset stays’ etc etc through the 19thc as well. it’s basically impossible to mark a precise point at which the changeover from the word ‘stays’ to the word ‘corset’ occurred, and that’s because there was no one point - and even when the youth ™ started to adopt ‘corset’, their elders continued calling them ‘stays’.

Ladies’ Home Journal, August 1893, everyone.

*yes not all corsets were hourglassy in the 19thc, this is a broad generalization

MAD: "Everyone is a sinner except me."

SAD: "I will never be anything more than a sinner."

GLAD: "I am a sinner in all but the eyes of my God. I accepted his covering for my shame, and he refuses to remember my mistakes ever again. Including the ones I haven't yet made."

[roosterbox]

Broke: Arthur has no imagination.

Woke: Arthur actually has a ton of imagination. Eames just said he didn’t so Cobb would have an excuse to bring him (Eames) on board for the Inception plan.

Bespoke: Cobb knew all along. He just went with it because he’s tired of them dancing around each other.

[blazingstar29]

broke: iceman's dad is a dickish navy admiral

woke: iceman's dad pushed him into the navy to live vicariously through his son who could be better in active duty than he ever was

bespoke: iceman's dad wants his son to be successful in a way he never could in the navy, to see him ascend to higher commands but also a successful pilot in his own right because he genuinely thinks ice has the potential but due to generations of toxic masculinity and poor fathers is unable to express these thoughts, thus perpetuating toxic masculinity and projecting his own father's cold shoulder and harsh expectations onto his son

Broke: Crows are gross because they eat trash

Woke: crows eat trash because their natural habitats have been turned into the city and they do what they need to live

BESPOKE: crows eat chicken nuggets because they are true l’y a more intelligent life form than most

[bitspieces]

Broke: most cultures are bound to have their own Ea-Nasir, especially including the Ferengi

Woke: the Ferengi equivalent of Ea-Nasir is considered a saint on Ferenginar

Bespoke: Ea-Nasir was actually a time traveler Ferengi who got stranded on Earth and decided to make the best of it like in that one VOY episode

You know, I bet the Ferengi have someone like Ea-Nasir and he's like. a saint or something
