(i’ll put a real title here later, i promise)

1) Figured this out.

*picks up broom*

God’s will, not mine.

God’s plan, not mine.

Not, "this social rule makes no sense!" But like an anthropologist, "I wonder how this rule came to be and what people are getting out of it?"

Not, "that's bad grammar!" But like a linguist, "What actually is happening when we say 'me too,' how did the accusative come to be used there?"

Not, "ugh, small talk" but "ooh, phatic communication! What is the real communication taking place and how do they know?"

You are transported back in time and into the body of a young noblewoman in the 1400s. Your parents have married you off to an awful, abusive, rapist husband whom literally no one else would marry despite him being very high nobility because he's that terrible. You successfully produce a baby boy and then plan to murder this man for the good of everyone and yourself. Here is the question: do you think you could murder him in a way that is undetectable to the historical people around you? Note: they aren't stupid, you are the prime suspect as the battered wife AND you can't just say poison. Where are you going to buy poison? Do you know anything about poison actually? NO GOOGLING! You were sent back without a plan!
