She had played the dutiful daughter, the blushing bride, the pliant wife. She had suffered Robert’s drunken groping, Jaime’s jealousy, Renly’s mockery, Varys with his titters, Stannis endlessly grinding his teeth. She had contended with Jon Arryn, Ned Stark, and her vile, treacherous, murderous dwarf brother, all the while promising herself that one day it would be her turn.

Do you ever think really hard about university and ask yourself WHY? LIKE WHY AM I DOING IT? Omfg and with my one and only life……

i just read a washington post article on romcoms aging poorly due to the pushiness (and oft-stalkery conduct) of the male characters therein, and it got me thinking about pride and prejudice, and specifically darcy saying, “one word from you will silence me on this subject forever.”

because, like, that’s the seldom-portrayed romantic dream in the patriarchal hellscape that is our world, isn’t it?

a dude being willing to say, “i understand if you don’t feel the same way about me, and i’ll leave you alone forever about this if my attention is unwanted.”

so simple, yet so wonderful in its basic human decency

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY

1 September 1532: Anne Boleyn is made Marquess of Pembroke in her own right.

On Sunday, 1 September 1532, Anne Boleyn entered the King’s presence at Windsor Palace, accompanied by her ladies and the Garter King-at-Arms. Dressed in ermine trimmed with velvet and bedecked with jewels, her long hair flowing loose down her back, she knelt before the King and the Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk. The Bishop of Winchester then read out the patent which gave her the title Marquess of Pembroke in her own right.

Anne was now the first Englishwoman to be granted a hereditary peerage title. Along with the title, which would pass to her offspring, she received lands worth over £1000 a year. As she knelt and listened to the Bishop’s words, Anne could take great satisfaction in the fact that she was the highest-ranking noblewoman in England.

After the patent had been read aloud, the King then rose from his seat and crowned Anne with a golden coronet and placed on her shoulders a crimson velvet mantle. The couple finally departed the ceremony together to attend a lavish banquet. There they celebrated the event, content that they were one step closer to their goal. Within months, the two would be married and Anne would be crowned Queen Consort of England.
