genuinely so tired of the male love interest in every m/f romance being the most hugelarge tallman to ever growth spurt. I need to see some women swooning over little five foot five rat dudes who need to be tucked in their gf's pocket lest they blow away like a napkin in the wind.

A 1913 love letter that unfolds into a little art gallery.

Caricaturist Alfred Frueh (1880-1968) sent his fiancee Giuliette this letter, so that she could train for the "Gallery Marathon" she would experience when she arrived in Paris. It came complete with original works of art and a coat check.

@academicblorbo - I think you'll find it's:

Danish: The moon is common-gender

#socialist icon

You think you're an ally or whatever and then you hear another language with a gender system refer to a noun in a different gender than you're used to and all of a sudden you're like "NO. CHAIRS ARE GIRLS"

The moon's genderfluid, I'm excited to announce.

"So tell me about your sources"

Ancient Historian: Huh yeah sure, I have... *checks notes* two stone inscriptions and one preserved fragment from [impossibly long Greek name].

Medieval Historian: So I have two chronicles, the first one likes Guy A and the second one likes Guy B, so we're not sure what happened, but it's probably somewhere in the middle. Both chroniclers are monks named Raymond.

Early Modern Historian: I have a few chronicles, a few letters, some financial and accounting documents... and, oh look at these cool engravings of Louis XIV caricatured as a cat ! Pretty cool right ?

Contemporary Historian: The extent of my sources is infinite. I have 230 tomes of a children magazine about roller-skating downloaded in pdf right now on my computer. I don't even work on roller-skating but I downloaded it just in case. Mere mortals pass and look at me, buried in stacks of primary sources. They do not know. They do understand. I can see true reality. All of it.

we went wrong when we decided that the descriptive word for someone or something that lies to you should be "deceptive" instead of "deceivious"

Saddest thing ever is reading an academic paper about a threatened or declining species where you can tell the author is really trying to come up with ways the animal could hypothetically be useful to humans in a desperate attempt to get someone to care. Nobody gives a shit about the animals that “don’t affect” us and it seriously breaks my heart

I've asked this question before and been surprised by the results, now I have access to more weirdos it's your problem:

It is the middle of a Sunday afternoon. You have nothing on, and aren't expecting visitors, deliveries or post.

Unexpectedly, there is a knock at the door.
