Just finished the third season of Bridgerton (it was an incredibly frustrating watch)...People have said that Penelope is named as such because of her nickname Pen and her being a writer... but has anyone thought of the reference to the Odyssey and Penelope being the wife of Odysseus? You know, she had to be loyal for 20 years while Odysseus gallivanted across the globe and was distracted/cheating on her Circe? I feel like it goes with the whole Polin narrative too. She's the one who had to wait for him to get a clue. And if you've read the Penguin version of the Odyssey, you know everyone is like omg! Odysseus, so amazing, the sacker of cities etc. Which parallels Colin's "glow up". Totally think it's more of a literary reference since the two of them are writers...

i really don’t care that much about the oceangate incident, but if y’all could stop just using the tragic loss of hundreds of refugees in Greece as whataboutism, that would be great
it’s gross and you clearly don’t give a shit about them outside of the excuse that it gives you to make fun of billionaires

for some reason my brain keeps wanting to read the blog name as biles-bian blog as if this is a blog for folks exclusively attracted to Simone Biles and I thought maybe it would be fun to share
(From November 27, 2023)
To be fair... have you SEEN Simone Biles?
You should see Simone Biles. You should look at her.

im already so sick of people saying that taylor was singing INTHAF on her own at edin n3 because she wasn't! there were many many people, including myself, that were singing along to it, just because there was a surge in voices when dorothea started doesn't mean no one was singing before that!

me, having two OCs who make callum look like the most squeaky clean, morally upright, undevoted, normal human being ever, and still considering them all good people: what, like it's hard?
