emma woodhouse is the funniest austen girl. she has one-sided drama with the most reserved girl who has done nothing but literally just mind her business. she gets angry about not being invited to a social event even though she would have said no just because she would have liked to be asked. she's said she's aiming to read more for years but has never actually read more. she refers to her best friend as being naive and not very smart and kind of manipulates her while simultaneously both complicating her life greatly from the moment they meet to being her ride or die. she is literally The Problem. she denies that she is The Problem. she makes me want to pull my hair out. I love her more than anything.

#i love her #she is the worst and also she is the best and i love her for it #emma #jane austen

The one bizarre thing to me about textiles is that warp-weighted weaving is at least 6500 years old, but our oldest knitted artifacts are only ~1000 years old, and crochet 200 years old. Even though you need less equipment to knit (two sticks) or crochet (one hook) compared to warp-weighted weaving (frame, loom weights, batting, heddles). Why the big gaps between these inventions? And why did each one appear and spread when it did?

“not all men” you’re right, Lord Sir Raoul of Goldenlake and Malorie’s Peak would never do this

Hey I just thought of something: maybe part of the reason Jon wanted Raoul on Progress was that he wanted Kel on Progress, jousting and competing and showing the world that society doesn’t crumble when women take up arms. We know he never does anything for just one reason, and we never really got a satisfactory reason for keeping Raoul cooped up aside from stubbornness and pride. Maybe that had something to do with it. We do know she changed at least some minds just by being there, from the interactions she had. And the timing of the Progress was perfect if that was his aim. I mean, what a great opportunity to take the country’s first openly female squire in a hundred years on tour. That’s some great PR right there.

barbie and the magic of pegasus is a top tier og barbie movie because barbie canonically tries to murder the bad guy and is only stopped because the magic wand literally won’t let her

#absolutely iconic #i love this movie #barbie

I was thinking about Aragorn’s stupidly long legs again and I think it should be canon that he regularly smacks his forehead into low door frames and stuff. Just somwhere in Minas Tirith there’s a loud thunk followed by a long string of Sindarin swearwords and Arwen is like “ah yes, here he comes, the King of Gondor and Arnor, the love of my life.”
