Everyone who plays around with Tarot cards long enough winds up with a “bad” card that they love. I just barely persuaded my husband not to get the Ten of Swords tattooed on his body; traditionally, it shows a corpse with ten swords stuck in their body and means “utter ruin,” but he thought that if it took ten swords to kill you, then you must have put up a pretty good fight.

honestly this is the most badass ten of swords interpretation i've ever heard.  i'm stealing this

ASOIAF WOMAN 1/x: CERSEI LANNISTER

"Cersei is as gentle as King Maegor, as selfless as Aegon the Unworthy, as wise as Mad Aerys. She never forgets a slight, real or imagined. She takes caution for cowardice and dissent for defiance. And she is greedy. Greedy for power, for honor, for love"

— ADWD, Tyrion VI

speaking about cannibalism and the more recent popularization of the literary motif being used to describe overwhelming possession and destructive love, let us also not forget how it was initially used as a satirical political tool to protest against unjust regimes and was a motif used for calls for unity and action. [1] [2] the depoliticization of political motifs are dangerous bc it defangs and sanitizes them for mass consumption.

———— [1] A Modest Proposal, satirical essay (1729) [2] Pre-Chinese Civil War literary leaders like Lu Xun calling for an unified front for a republican government, rather than the country "eating itself" (e.g. "Medicine", "Madman's Diary")
