I don't know if Lizzie Borden did or didn't Do It, but what matters more is what she did afterwards:
moved to a grand house with her sister and had intense, Ambiguously Gay friendships with actresses until her death at age 66
there's a terrible slasher film called Lizzie Borden's Revenge and I'm like. revenge for WHAT. what about the entire rest of her life could possibly leave her feeling in need of vengeance. barring local notoriety and the emotional toll thereof, the rest of her life was excellent
#history#lizzie borden#if she Did It she wasn't a serial killer#if she Did It she only did it once. that wasn't like her defining personality trait#also I cannot emphasize enough how murky the whole question is there#some people assume the trial was a sham and it's clear that she did it. it's Decidedly Not#circumstantial evidence. allegedly 'conflicting' testimonies that possibly only conflict because she was loaded up with laudanum#to calm her nerves#other enemies of Andrew and Abby in Fall River at the time (there was suspicion that someone had tried to poison the whole family earlier)#(including Lizzie herself)#it is far from a foregone conclusion that she killed them

🐋 righttowhale Follow
ever since the 1850s big petroleum has been working to destroy the whaling industry, backed by the naturalists who find a problem with the hunting of whales, despite there being an abundance of the beasts in the sea! do not reject whaling – trust when whale experts say that these creatures will never be at a serious risk, don't fall for the propaganda of big petroleum
⚓️ sunkenmen
what the fuck are you talking about. did a whale kill your parents or something.
🐋 righttowhale Follow
yes, actually.

i don't believe that women are capable of a crime so brutal. even when judith slayed holofernes, she did so by the guiding of God. her actions were virtuous in nature. women, being of the fairer sex, who serve God as lizzie does are not capable of a murder so foul. jezebel was able to do as she did because she spurned Him.

stop lumping sapphist lizzie defenders with these freaks.

A Villain with an Axe to Wield
‘What are you hiding, my lady?’ Meet Emer. Wicked maid of a wicked mistress, she’s an expert in following evil orders, dressing ladies to kill, and making grimly sarcastic remarks (that last she does for free). She doesn’t know in the future of the book, she climbs the ranks and the… pile of bodies… to become the Iron Maid, a fantasy answer to Lizzie Borden. Lately her mistress acts very concerned whenever Emer goes near an axe. As if Emer didn’t have enough to deal with given her lady’s odd new behaviour and sudden but inevitable betrayal, the palace now recruits guards from the literal gutters? (Key, on hearing the first grimly sarcastic remark: Bestie. 🥰 Emer: … Co-worker.) Brought to vivid wonderful life by @vkelleyart who bravely endured my emails about axes… If this maid has your axe, there’s a preorder link to Ballast Books, one of the beautiful members of my indie preorder campaign which get evil goodies.
