✨️ throwing a public thank you out to a couple of sweethearts while i am heart eyesing all over the place ✨️

firstly, the gem that is @hibernaldream with the most gorgeous care package of goodies, including some mummy dust from the london ritual and the sweetest note that made me a little teary. that terzo sticker. i swoon.

and my angel @dolceterzo with so many dreamy bracelets (two of which we have discovered, together, glow in the dark 😂), an absolutely exquisitely curated card (that i am really not doing justice with this picture), and the yummiest print of all time 🫠🍑

thank you, sweet friends! you are appreciated beyond measure 🥹

truly, i am feeling like a very lucky little creature. having to miss my ritual was heartbreaking, but i've been shown so much kindness and generosity from people here that it's filled my heart back up again a little bit. so thank you to anyone who sent a sweet comment or message. it means a lot. i'm so thankful for this community ❤️‍🩹

I thought this clip was from a movie but it is a 1959 production by Encyclopædia Britannica Educational Corporation of Sophocles' play Oedipus Rex (King Oedipus).

For those who might not be familiar with it, the play takes place in Thebes, where a terrible plague is devastating the city. Oedipus, the king, vows to find the cause to save his people. The oracle at Delphi, however, reveals that the plague will end only when the murderer of the former king, Laius, will be found and punished.

As Oedipus questions witnesses and uncovers evidence, he realises that he himself is the murderer he seeks. Years earlier, in fact, he had unknowingly killed Laius at a crossroads. Even more devastating, Laius was his biological father, and by solving the Sphinx’s riddle and ascending the throne of Thebes, Oedipus had unwittingly married his own mother, Jocasta, too.

When the full truth is revealed, Oedipus is overcome with guilt and horror, and his wife/mother Jocasta takes her own life. Seeing her corpse wrecks him so much that he blinds himself, saying he never wants to see any more misery in his life. He begs to be exiled, leaving his children behind in shame. The play ends with a reflection on fate and how no one can be deemed truly fortunate until their life has ended and their destiny is fully known.

You could fill books with thoughts on Oedipus and the basic plot doesn’t even scratch the surface on its themes and motifs. There’s a lot that could be said about the concept of fate and free will in Oedipus Rex vs fate and free will in Catholic theology. It’s been a long time since I’ve studied Greek plays so I’d really need to go down a rabbit hole.

No, I don’t think that the takeaway message is that incest has entered the lore, but I do get the vibes of someone struggling with their origin, family, and identity. But again, merely scratching the surface.

Ok I got curious and started looking things up. This is a stock video from an orphanage. I'm guessing all the other clips might be as well.

If this is not the most ridiculous thing I've heard 😭😭😭

[hibernaldream]

I don’t know what possessed me to tell the record shop to put me down for a copy of Skeletà for the midnight sale, especially when I’ve got a shift starting at 9 a.m. the next day. Plus I got back from Birmingham feeling like absolute shite. No voice, flu, cold, no appetite, nausea. It’s looking really grim.

As a non-native English speaker, I’ve got to say it's kind of hilarious (and lowkey insulting) how every time TF says something “controversial,” some native speakers rush to blame it on him being Swedish. Like, “Oh no, he just doesn’t know English, poor guy!” Yeah, because clearly uncle, brother, and sibling are extremely advanced vocabulary, right up there with quantum physics.

Hate to break it to you, but those words usually come right after “hello” and “how are you” in any English course. Lmao.

I remember when fans used to compile vocab lists and call them “Words TF has taught me”, and they were always full of multi-syllabic words that Europeans perhaps pick up instantly because those words derive from Latin, as opposed to everyday English that is full of short, monosyllabic, Anglo-Saxon words.

There are historical and linguistic reasons that justify this, it’s not like his English is so poor he needs to keep up with his streak on Duolingo or else. The man has an excellent command of his second language.

Also, canon and retcons are bendier than a yoga instructor. If you’re open to headcanons and AUs, you can still enjoy the material without being weirdly discriminatory and patronising.
