You know what the worst part of being born over a hundred years ago is? I miss all the friends I used to hang out with. Before the war started, I used to always visit my friend Kuzon. The two of us, we’d get in and out of so much trouble together. He was one of the best friends I ever had, and he was from the Fire Nation just like you. If we knew each other back then, do you think we could have been friends too?
stop believing that you ran out of time to shape yourself into who you want to be! stop believing that its ruined! stop believing you don’t have potential! you are not a fixed being! you have endless opportunities to grow.
hi i’m kind of back? idk? haven’t decided yet?
but ya anyways hi
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, this generations obsession with abusive fictional relationships is sickening. I actually fear for yalls future if you think this is the norm.
it’s called “being able to separate a fictional ship from real relationships”, sharon
it’s called “these things literally happen to people in real life so stop romanticising it and calling it ‘relationship goals’” but i guess cause u called me sharon u won :/
I really love the academic theory that Anne Boleyn was just funny as shit. Like popular opinion even up until now in the western world is that women can’t be funny so I just love that all these dudes are falling over themselves for this hilarious woman while meanwhile thinking, “I don’t get it, she’s not super attractive SHE MUST BE A WITCH.”
well now i’m gonna be wondering how to make someone come emotionaly and that’s just gonna bother me

I am 100% convinced that “exit, pursued by a bear” is a reference to some popular 1590s meme that we’ll never be able to understand because that one play is the only surviving example of it.
Okay but actually, this is true!! Kind of.
So a few years before Winter’s Tale was written, white bears became very popular in London. No one knows why–possibly Londoners first became aware that white bears were a thing that could exist. So the Chamberlain’s men made a white bear costume for one play (the name of which I can’t remember right now). Well, the play stops running and the Chamberlain’s men suddenly have this super expensive bear costume they can never use again.
So along comes Billy Shakes, who’s like “I know how we can get our money’s worth”. So he writes in “exit, pursued by a bear” to both kill off Antigonus and to make use of the bear costume.
Ta-da, Shakespeare economically repurposing a 1590s meme.
