worldbuilding is what writers do when they want to justify a petty aesthetic choice

Worldbuilding is also what writers do when they want to justify not actually writing.

Reading this comment was like looking down to see that I’ve been stabbed through the back in the middle of gloating.

I kind of love that one of Jane Austen's biggest fans was the Prince Regent (later George IV). She didn't think very well of the nobility in general, but she motherfucking hated him, a wastrel who very flagrantly cheated on his wife.

But he loved her writing, was the first recorded purchaser of Sense and Sensibility, and kept copies of her books in all his residences. She never made enough from her writing to live on during her lifetime, so this wasn't support she could casually toss aside. His librarian kept suggesting ideas for new books to her, which she turned down with exquisite politeness. Much to her aggravation, she found herself obliged to dedicate Emma to the man.

Local Novelist Is So Talented She Can't Beat Royal Patron Off With A Stick

I've thought about it and this is so funny because a moral novelist having to civilly endure being patronized by a dissolute nobleman who loves but also totally doesn't get her books is exactly the kind of thing that would happen in a Jane Austen novel.

Love that AOC became Nancy-Pelosi-In-Waiting so goddamn fast

–Elsée Reclus, “Evolution, Revolution, and the Anarchist Ideal” (1898)

I like how, 10 years later, and after huge proven disinformation campaigns, tumblr still hasn’t learned AT ALL to look at a source.

On Feb 23rd, in reaction to news about camps, AOC tweeted this:

In response to this, AOC then received this question from another user, which she answered, and which is being displayed in isolation above:

If you’re not following, AOC went in on how we need to completely revamp our immigration system and fundamentally restructure it away from a carceral state mentality (aka, prison-based).

She was then honest that this is not something that can be done in 2 months, so she called on everyone to keep pushing towards a radical future.

In response to a very specific question about how we should handle children who arrive at the border unattended, while we get this process of revamping the entire system started, AOC’s response was to:

1. Immediately require that only licensed facilities can house children 

2. Address the actual question of whether or not these services should be contracted out as they are now (Which AOC just made VERY clear her stance on)

3. Specifically cited the issue of companies who are pushing to reopen (again, her stance on this is clear).

4. Then directly drew attention to a comprehensive framework for legislation which AOC and Rep Jayapal are actively trying to get support for. And the only way we get the support, to drive this kind of radical change, is to underscore that the people have power to make this change, and our activism and support is vital.

STOP LETTING PEOPLE PRESENT INFORMATION OUT OF CONTEXT SO THAT IT IS INCENDIARY AND UNDERMINES THE ACTUAL POLITICAL PUSHES THAT ARE IN YOUR INTEREST AND IN LINE WITH YOUR OWN RADICAL POLITICS.

We’ve been doing this way too freaking long, tumblr.

reblog THIS ONE

just crying over how romantic Freddie & Jim were nbd

So I read the book, and almost everytime Jim gave/made Freddie a gift, Freddie would always show it off and say “My husband got me those!” or “My husband made that for me!” It’s so sweet, especially for this one part when they first started dating:

yeah?
