#dull times

[whats-in-a-sentence]

A few days after sending a long defence to the Colonial Secretary, he applied for twelve months' leave. He wrote:

I have drifted into pecuniary difficulties (only Temporary) through no fault of my own caused principally by the dull times, expensive rate of living here, over speculation and depreciation in the value of property. Owing to the protracted drought it would mean ruin to me at the present time, were I forced to dispose of my property . . .

I may here inform the Honourable The Colonial Secretary that should my request be considered favourably it is my intention to occupy my time exploring & prospecting the Auriferous Ranges* in this locality as I am convinced there are some rich finds yet to be discovered.

Does anyone else hate that meme about only boys thinking about the Roman Empire and girls (and some gay men) gleefully being like “I only think about [insert current pop culture trend]”.

And it’s like continuing the meme that boys are intelligent beings, interested in history while girls are just…not

This coupled with the girl math thing, and also the “boys when they time travel vs. girls” and overall bimbofication trend. We’e going back in time where pretending to be stupid and vapid was the norm and it just alienates women who are proud of their intelligence even more from other women

imo the best example in mtmte of 'most fandom spaces have a lot of people who struggle to write a super confident character as anything but faking it/secretly anxious' is the minor tendency to characterise thunderclash as somehow deeply insecure under the surface, as though the entire gag of his character isn't that he is in fact as precisely perfect and lovely as he seems to be, and it's not even slightly a facade. thunderclash being completely and genuinely secure in himself without feeling the need to achieve this by putting other people down is like. part and parcel of the fact rodimus finds him infuriating. you lose that whole bit if you say thunderclash is faking it!

As a self-proclaimed freak and enjoyer of freak media, I say this with all the love in my heart, some of you, my fellow self-proclaimed freaks and freak media enjoyers, need to stop treating freakishness like a contest. It’s edgelord behavior to constantly, exhaustively, insist that your tastes and threshold and lifestyle is freakier and therefore more elevated than others. Something is not inherently bad or boring because it does not meet your skewed standards of extremity. Someone is not inherently boring because they aren’t as jaded or preoccupied with the taboo as you.
