Just so you know, if it wasn’t for Usopp, Tama would never have been able to turn the Pleasures against the Animal Kingdom Pirates so swiftly and thoroughly.

As the only member of her own family, Meg could never quite grasp how expansive the Boleyn-Tudor siblings' had grown. With each marriage came more children, and before one knew it, more claimants to the Tudor line of succession emerged from the woodwork. Perhaps the most incredible relation, however, was Mary, Queen of Scotland and France. Mary's grandmother was Elizabeth and William's aunt, as was the case with the Grey daughters, but what astounded Meg was that Mary was Queen of Scotland in her own right.
Both of Henry VIII's sisters had married abroad, and descendants of both were perfectly placed to challenge his children's claim to the throne. The English were quite wary of their king's Scottish cousin, but on the odd occasion where Meg had been in her presence, she found Mary rather admirable. The young queen carried herself with grace and a quiet confidence that one could only be born with.
She greeted the French-raised Scotswoman with a warm smile and a curtsy befitting her station. "Your Majesty. Are you enjoying the evening?"

Every time i purchase a moderately expensive item the Karl Marx on my shoulder is like "For shame... you purchase yet another pair of jeans when you have 5 already at home, you despicable commodity fetishist? In my time, a man with five outfits would consider himself blessed beyond measure, and yet you want for more, while there are children starving in the world??" to which the second Karl Marx on my other shoulder says "Objection! Those 5 pairs of jeans all wildly uncomfortable or have holes in the ass, due to the decline of clothing quality driven by the fast fashion industry, unfortunately making this purchase a necessity... Plus, by purchasing a slightly more expensive pair of jeans from an independent brand, seeking quality over 'brand recognition', they are deliberately trying to avoid engaging in conspicuous consumption!" to which the third Karl Marx clinging to my back like that beetle from Doctor Who says "Remember, my friend; the less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub, and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither moth nor rust will corrupt — your capital. Buy the jeans," to which I say "I don't know if any of you have actually read Karl Marx"

I am actually so serious I think it really messes with a childs creativity and joy to tell them to never make a mary sue OC. Like that unbridaled form of joy where you make a self insert OC who super cool and everyone loves them and they have every superpower in the world SHOULD be something a kid makes, it nourishes their ability to create things for fun and not be stifled by "oh but what if my character is too overpowered and cringey...". whatever

Never gonna get over how the anime made this scene just so,, haunting and elevated. Like I love the manga but I love how the anime has taken these scenes and elevated the themes of death and rebirth with simple shots like this and it’s why even after reading all of the manga I still get excited for the anime because I *know* the anime will not only be a faithful adaptation, but also an artistic masterpiece as it uses the medium to its advantage
