fun fact 1: during prohibition, moonshiners wore "cow shoes" that left hoof prints to throw off police. The inventor got the idea from a Sherlock Holmes story.

Obsessed with this new season because I love Zac Oyama, but it always feels like Brennan has to hand crank him out of his shell with special made NPCs and storylines just for him, and this season he’s just doin it. and by doin it I mean having opinions before being asked and putting his character in situations actively and using his complex backstory and actually talking and
well I’m insane about him and it’s nice to see him taking such an active role

i am NOT taking those books off my shelves
to pretend that horrible people cannot make good art is another way to conflate beauty and talent with integrity and morality. the works of monsters are best examined with knowledge of the author in mind but art is not inherently reflective. human beings are creative, and habitual liars- it'd be stupid to pretend art must always be a portrait of its creator

The interpretation of “rowdy” as a slur is so funny in battle.
Maxwell going “call off your rowdies” is the equivalent of telling the guy pointing a gun at your head that all his friends are faggots. I don’t think that’s going to do what you think it’s going to do, mate.

sometimes i stop and think about how crazy it is that “The French Mistake” is a real episode of Supernatural.
and then, not only that, but WHEN it came it out. Do y’all realize it had to be written during the break between season 5 and 6? That was a fucking crazy time to be a supernatural fan! That’s when both Jared and Jensen got married, to women they’d kinda just announced they were dating. During peak J2 tinhat season when everyone was convinced they were beards.
that was written during the summer that J2 were never photographed apart! During the time when J2’s rings matched each other and not their wives! Y’all remember how Daneel posted a picture of the view outside the hotel on her honeymoon in Europe and not two hours later Jensen was photographed in the US with Jared?
and it was during THAT time that the writers decided to write an episode implying that real-world Jared and Jensen fucked and then got weird about it and broke up?

simply wanted to note that in Stormlight Archives, you can be gay if you’re lower class but not if you’re nobility UNLESS it’s a second marriage and one of you already had a kid
I think more historical fantasies and alt histories that have gay marriage be allowed should mess around with the societal implications of this. If your aristocracy allows gay marriage, why? As a release valve for inheritance problems, like monasticism was in parts of medieval Europe? As a way of removing your failchild from the line of succession by legally binding them to the failchild of your political ally, ensuring any offspring they both have will be illegitimate? How about a society where the lower classes are allowed to be gay but the nobility aren’t? Idk there’s just a lot of options that are more interesting than “homophobia just doesn’t real”
