my girl Lizzie is a very smart person, but she can be really dummy-dummy whenever Darcy is concerned.

The funniest part of Pride and Prejudice is when Elizabeth is staying at the Collinses and she keeps going for walks and running into Darcy and tries to get rid of him by mentioning that it's her favorite place to walk and he just keeps 'accidentally' bumping into her and walking with her and she can't figure out why this is happening

[sisterofwolves]

an underrated detail in pride and prejudice is that elizabeth bennett was home alone on the day darcy proposed because she had a headache. can you imagine. this was in the pre-painkillers era. you're at home with a headache and then this asshole walks into the room and tells you he loves you and wants to marry you even though he hates your whole family and you're beneath him. imagine having to deal with that while also having a headache. she doesn't even have ibuprofen

Every Alien movie is like: here's a creature that has acid for blood, can move at incredible speed, it is very resistent to even the extreme conditions, it is very intelligent but single minded, it only cares for its own survival and reproduction and killed or tried to kill every single species it ever encountered.

Weyland-Yutani executives: we should weaponize the shit out of that motherfucker

We critters who have watched CR for some time have our own perceptions about the cast, and I understand that we don't really know them on a personal level, and some - if not most - of our perceptions about them might be false, but I also know in my heart that Laura Bailey has the most tidy house among all of the cast and she will always say "please, don't mind the mess" when you visit her, even tho her house is amazing and pristine all of the time, and while Travis is not the most organized person he will keep the house orderly and clean to the most of his ability in order to avoid the wrath of the spouse.

A Bookmark Near the End He loves history. He wanted to write a biography of John Quincy Adams. I, shamefully, knew almost nothing about John Quincy Adams, so I went online and bought every biography of him I could find. One day, he called me, claiming that we wouldn’t work out long term. He said he loved me but that we had different interests. “What does love mean to you?” I said. “That’s an impossible question,” he replied. I, however, find love to be quite simple. Love is the stack of biographies on my nightstand with a bookmark near the end. — Julia Nicole Camp NYT Tiny Love Stories, 2/11/2020

I really like Marisha Ray's characters: Keyleth, the awkward Princess, Beauregard, the sarcastic lesbian and Laudna, the optimistic corpse girl...

Do men even call you "not handsome enough to tempt" them, then keep months secretly pinning after you while you think they are looking to find fault, then ruin perhaps forever the happiness of your most beloved sister, then propose to you after calling your whole family embarassing, then disappear for a while only for you to bump into them while visiting their home with your relatives, and then pay for their archnemesis to marry your silly younger sister in order to save you and the rest of your family anymore?

No wonder they chose Athena, the queen gave them olive oil, which is great for skincare and cooking, both very important pillars of civilized society

OMG, THIS IS SO TERRIBLE.

Symbolism wise, this is ALL WRONG.

Tarot Cards aren’t just a bunch of figures, they actually have symbolism and represent ARCHETYPES. And the person who made this got all the archetypes wrong.

The fool is an archetype of JOURNEY, and DIVING INTO THE UNKNOWN. It doesn’t mean foolishness in the sense of someone being a jerk (like Joffrey). It symbolizes someone who willingly steps into unknown territory with curiosity and faith. Hence, Bran would be The Fool, because he makes a spiritual journey diving into lost knowledge with the Bloodraven.

The Magician is the archetype of KNOWLEDGE and WISDOM. This is Tyrion Lannister, really. Tyrion always relies on Logic, calculating the risks of his actions. He usually uses his mind to solve problems and have the fast thinking and swift tongue the Magician is known for. Also, the Magician is a somewhat trickster figure (like Loki or Apollo). So, it’s Tyrion.

The High Priestess... well, this is actually right. High Priestess is the archetype of OCCULT and INTUITION. The High Priestess is a woman of great knowledge, but not a rational knowledge. Her wisdom is spiritual. Her knowledge and powers doesn’t come from books and studying, but from unknown and ancient powers. So, Melisandre.

The Empress is the Archetype of MOTHERHOOD, FERTILITY, FEMALE POWER and CREATION. The only character in Asoiaf that seems to fit the archetype would be the historical Good Queen Alysanne, or maybe the religious figure of The Mother, of the Faith of the Seven. The Empress represents female power and is actually a figure of love and compassion, and most of all, a MOTHER figure. That’s not Sansa.

The Emperor is the Archetype of THE FATHER, JUSTICE, MORALITY and MASCULINE POWER. This would be Ned Stark, or maybe the religious figure of The Father of the Faith of the Seven. Either way, the Emperor is a figure of great moral strength, justice and honor (honestly, this is not like Jamie at all).

The Hierophant could actually be Jojeen, but I think Sam Tarly fits best, because the archetype of the Hierophant is THE HEALER and THE PROFESSOR, and Sam is learning to be a Maester. Also, Jojeen’s knowledge comes from Greensight and ancient Gods, not from books and rational thinking. The Hierophant is a figure of rational knowledge, unlike the High Priestess, whose knowledge is instinctive.

The Lovers is the archetype of CHOICE and CONFLICT. Rhaegar Targaryen, Lyanna Stark and Robert Baratheon fulfill the archetype, since they form a Love Triangle. The Lovers are actually a love triangle, representing the choice between a “safe” path (for Lyanna, a loveless marriage to Robert Baratheon) and a “dangerous” path  (for Lyanna, to follow her heart and runaway with Rhaegar, despite the ugly consequences).

 The Chariot is the archetype of THE WARRIOR. It is Ares in Greek mythology, the War Chariot that tramples over whatever that lies in its way. The Warrior is not a rational figure, is an instinctive one. The Warrior fights its way to get what it wants. So, Arya Stark, really.

The Strength is the archetype of INNER STRENGHT and PRIDE. This is Brienne of Tarth and her constant struggle to be honorable. Also, mythology-wise the Strength is Hercules, forced to overcome certain trials to regain his honor. So, Brienne and her task to find the Stark girls and fulfill her oath to Catelyn Stark fit better. She also wields a blade called Oathkeeper, a symbol of her quest to fulfill her promise and find honor.

The Hermit is the archetype of ISOLATION. This is the Bloodraven (Three Eyed Raven), that made the conscious choice to step away from the world and watch as the history unfolds; He does not interfere in the ways of the world, he observers and eventually mentors, but he only plays the part of guide and witness. The Hermit is also a figure of wisdom (and honestly, how do you even think The Hound fits in, pray tell?)

The Wheel of Fortune is the archetype of DESTINY. The Wheel of Fortune would be Maggy reading Cersei’s fortune, leaving Cersei forever tormented by the inevitability of her fate. No other image in the series describes better.

The Justice is also right. Justice is Stannis, because Justice is the archetype of RIGHTEOUSNESS.

The Hanged Man is the Archetype of SACRIFICE. This is Jon Snow being stabbed by his fellow brothers. Jon Snow used his position of power to help the wildlings, opening the Wall for them, saving them from the Others, and in the end he was betrayed for his actions, making him some sort of Messiah. Theon’s punishment, however cruel, does not qualify as sacrifice, because it is actually a punishment that comes as a result of his own treason to the Starks.

The Death arcana does not mean death AT ALL. Death is actually the Archetype of CHANGE and REBIRTH. That would be Daenerys stepping out of the fires unharmed, but changed into someone stronger and more capable to lead. The Faceless Men only mean death in the usual sense, which is NOT the meaning of the card.

The Temperance is the archetype of BALANCE, PATIENCE and VIRTUE. Littlefinger does not represent either of this things, so it could never be him. Gilly Craster, however, fits the archetype: she is a sweet young girl that, despite all the things she had to endure, perfectly balances reason and emotion.

The Devil is the archetype of IMMORALITY, SEXUAL DRIVE and EGOCENTRISM. It doesn’t represent someone who is cruel and mean, but someone who only acts on his own desires and needs. Ramsay Bolton could not qualify as the Devil because he actually THINKS his actions quite thoroughly. He is a mean bastard, but he KNOWS he is a mean bastard; he made a CONSCIOUS CHOICE to be a mean bastard. The Devil does not think his actions; he is driven by his inner desires. So, the best fit is Jaime Lannister. Jaime Lannister is so immoral he forfeits his vows as a Kingsguard and even sleeps with his own sister, but now because he is consciously immoral; it is actually because he is driven by his hedonist desires.

The Tower is the archetype of DESTRUCTION OF AN APPARENTLY SOLID STRUCTURE. The Tower is not a person; it could never be a person. The figure of the Tower is Atlantis sinking by the force of Poseidon, or the Babel Tower being destroyed by God. So, the figure of the Tower could be either the sack of Winterfell or the Sept of Baelor burning, but not Tyrion or any other person.

The Star is the archetype of HOPE, specifically a hardened hope, after a time of suffering. Margaery is not the star, she lies and deceives too much to be a symbol of hope. Daenerys, whoever, symbolizes hope, especially for the people she set free. Dany is the Star.

The Moon is the archetype of TREASON, LIES and OCCULT ENEMIES. It is also a female figure. This would be Sansa, who betrays her family and is forced to lie to survive among many hidden enemies.

The Sun is the archetype of SUCCESS, VITALITY and LIGHT. The Sun is the Azor Ahai, the warrior who will bring the Winter to an end (yes, Dany could be Azor Ahai, but she is only one of the possible options, so until this is confirmed the Azor Ahai is a unknown figure).

The Judgment if the archetype of RETRIBUTION. When Davos saves Stannis during Robert Rebellion, he earns his Knightship, but Stannis cannot just forgive Davos’ past as a criminal. So, Stannis cuts Davos’ fingers, the just punishment for his crimes. That is the symbol of the Judgment card: what is due will come to you. You reap what you sow.

The World is the archetype of FULLFILLMENT. It is not the Others or the Winter (that symbolizes destruction and death) but actually the Spring after the Winter and the defeat of the Night King. The World means wholeness and happy endings.

People who make Tarot Arcana posts, please do it symbolically-wise. Tarot is not just a bunch of figures, they MEAN something. I think it’s nice to play around and make tarot arcana out of pop culture symbols, but the original meaning of the Arcana should be always respected.
