#the baddest of them all

People don't talk enough about the fact that Violet Bridgerton is infact the strongest, most confident, the baddest bitch of the whole ton.

Yes, people might argue the baddest bitch is lady Danbury or the queen. But lady Danbury lives alone in her mansion with no children or husband to worry about, the simple arrival of her brother irritated her. And in 'Queen Charlotte' we saw so very clearly what a mess the queens personal life and family is.

Then there's Violet Bridgerton.

Three seasons we saw the queen, the literal queen of the country, try to set up the Bridgerton siblings with individuals of her liking. Daphne with Prince Friedrich, Edwina with Anthony, and now, Francesca with lord Samadani. And all three times Violet told her children to make their own choice. To not rush their decision, but to take their time to know the person. That if they like the person the queen has chosen for them, then all is good, but if they don't then it's only right that they reject them, because even if it's the queen who has decided on this match, it is them who has to spend their whole lives with that person. And that she would support their decision wholly, provided that it is the one which is right for them.

If queen Charlotte had chosen a match between any other individuals, them and their parents would be dancing with joy, simply because the queen had shown interest in them. There wouldn't even be a question about choice. The queen has chosen for you, no other choice remains.

Then there's Violet Bridgerton who actively pushed Daphne and Anthony against the queens chosen prospects. Of course they were too stupid to listen to her, but that's not her fault.

I love that scene in season 3 when Violet comes into the dark room with Francesca playing the piano. Obviously, she was going to ask her all the proper questions, "what happened?", "why did you want to leave so abruptly?", "what did the lord kilmartin give you?". She starts, "Francesca?..." And then she sees Francesca's face, and... stops.

Violet spends the whole season wanting only that her daughter find someone who makes her happy and that she doesn't settle for anyone who's simply 'good enough'. And then she sees her daughter smiling ear to ear, gleeful, because John Sterling had 'the music rearranged exactly as she imagined it '. In all the three times this man had met her daughter he had understood her well enough to do something that made her so happy. And Violet doesn't ask anything, doesn't say anything. Violet simply smiles. Happy that her daughter found someone who cared for her this way.

While the other members of the ton sit, stand and dance according to the queen's whims, Violet had no qualms about displeasing the queen, not once, not twice, but THRICE now.

If that isn't the baddest bitch, I don't know who is.

But I just gotta say

I wanna be with you

I’m sorry but most of the rock girlfriends/wives were ugly (in my opinion). You have Bianca who looks like mick but deformed in a way, Marianne who did so many drugs she aged much sooner than she should have, Chrissie who looked like a man, Yoko who also looked like a man, Krissy Wood who looked weird, Pattie Boyd was mid too, Bebe who I thought was very ugly but described as a Marianne and Anita mixed, Linda McCartney was mid but described as the most beautiful girl from various books retaining the Beatles, Maureen Cox was also ugly, multiple women that Jimi Hendrix dated as well were ugly (can’t name them because the list is long), Jane Asher was mid, Catherine James was mid, and multiple others.

Chile, it's Black History Month. It's a time to celebrate Black beauty and all its splendor. There are too many mid, melaninless and cokeheaded bitches here, when this is where I'm living right now 😆:

reading Dracula has permanently altered my brain. i can never see count dracula as a generic character anymore. he isn't an ooky spooky horror monster he's the old bitch that imprisoned my boy johnny in his shitass castle and killed my beloved lucy and quincey. abraham van helsing isn't synonymous with badass monster hunters he's a 50-year-old dutch doctor who talks funny. i see things and think oh wow this is just like my favorite characters from my book that was written 126 years ago.

Hello queen

[mourn-and-watch]

you see i get why fandom automatically considers human characters to be boring in smooching aliens: the game but i think it's kinda ironic because humanity in mass effect is pretty much galaxy's most special guy. humans just discovered mass relays and immediately got in a fight with the main militarists of the milky way and didn't give up easily even though turians were a lot more advanced than them. they've been a part of the galactic community only for approximately 40 years and already got their place in the council. they're described as chaotic and unpredictable by other species which makes them a dangerous enemy both in politics and on the battlefield. they aren't the strongest species and don't have any significant physical advantages but their biotic potential is solid and can be improved to a great extent. even reapers see them as a danger. maybe you don't want to fuck humans in mass effect but I bet there's a whole line of aliens standing behind you and waiting for their turn
