I Have Two Schools Of Thought For The Three Meals Of The Day And Their Labelling.

What kind of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

HAPPY LESBIAN VISIBILITY DAY and happy birthday to me

I finally redrew, compiled and made enough to put together a 46 page zine of Sapphic Disco Elysium stuff. If you follow me, you'll see a lot that is familiar, but I have gone back and redrawn basically... most of it. and added to it. and honestly, there is a lot I didn't get to, so the pdf comes with lifetime updates

Hand and a half sword decorated with brass, silver, and ivory, Italy, circa 1490-1500

from Peter Finer

"There was a land The Lioness had conquered.

'Please, cease your marching,' Begged a wretch, 'I cannot bear to see my forests burned, my home razed, my people bled.'

The Lioness heard him, and considered. Her first and second fingers she pressed to her thumb. Her nails scraped, she had fashioned a beak from her claws. She plucked the man's eyes like worms from the earth.

'There,' The Lioness spoke, 'You will not see it.'"

Bravo also to Robert Eggers for probably the least bad depiction of Transylvania in Western vampire cinematic history:

1. Having actual Romanian actors doing the dialogue in Romanian. You'd think this is a low bar to clear but nope.

2. High quality costume design that looks pretty accurate to 19th century Romanian and Roma peasantry, even down to specific braided hairstyles from the Transylvanian region.

3. Depiction of Roma people but refrains from having them as some typical Hollywood exoticizing role like a magical fortune teller etc. They're in like half a scene, just chilling and playing music in front of an inn.

4. Use of the word "strigoi" which are actual spirits in Romanian folklore, unlike the term "vampire" which didn't exist in Romania.

5. Sorry to the Nosferatu moustache haters, but a Romanian nobleman would have had that exact facial hair.

6. Depiction of religion (nuns, churches) that actually looks like Eastern Orthodoxy and not some vaguely spooky goth Christianity.
