i think we should start taking beloved archetypes for male characters and using them to make female characters. this woman is an asshole with a heart of gold. this woman is a loveable goofball. this woman is a cool but scarred lone wolf who just wants to protect people. this woman is a badass con artist who is always seen wearing an immaculate suit. this woman is a dilf

No but guys, GUYS, we need to talk about how important this scene is. Because the commonly accepted lore about unicorns is that they are so good and pure that theyâll only appear to young virginal girls. Because Molly Grue is a middle-aged woman who has been living with bandits for most of her life and is as far from innocent and virginal as youâre likely to get. Because sheâs so angry that this creature, embodying everything that society tells her sheâs lost, everything sheâs thrown away through her own choices, is here now when all that The Unicorn represents is long since behind her. Because she knows, in a way that only someone whoâs been steeped in an oppressive system her entire life can ever know, that sheâs missed her chance and doesnât deserve to be seeing a unicorn now.
And you know what? The Unicorn doesnât give two fucks about her virginity, about her supposed loss of innocence and purity. Sheâs not repelled by Molly being older, being experienced, being a full human person. None of that has ever mattered to unicorns, only to the people telling stories about them. Not only does she step in to physically comfort her here, but before long this banditâs wife becomes her friend, closer to her in most ways than Schmendrick.
This story is fucking revolutionary, you guys, and I just have a lot of feelings about it.
I heard Peter S. Beagle speak about this scene at a convention once. He said he just kept writing and writing into the scene and suddenly here was this powerful, moving dialogue which came out very strong and natural, flowing directly from inspiration.
He said it was one of those moments when âthe writer just gets really lucky.âÂ
This is one of those scenes you nebulously get when youâre ten and comes up and punches you in the face when youâre thirty.
So. MY FIRST San Diego Comic Con, I had no idea what anything was? And I got Preview Night cuz, fuck it, first time, Iâll just get everything right? And Preview Night is when they open the Exhibition Hall the Wednesday night before the Con officially starts and you go in and vendors are there and you go and look and can buy stuff and its about 1/10th as crowded. Itâs lovely. And Peter S. Beagle had a booth on the floor. And He was just there. With his books. And I had a fucking moment of pure fangirling at him because, The Last Unicorn, oh my god. The moment I brought up, specifically, out of all the moments in that movie, was Molly Grue, and I quoted to him, in character âHow dare you come to me now? When I am this?â That she was still worthy after all this time and that even though things felt too late, it wasnât. Itâs never too late. I was young then, only 22, but I told him thinking about that helped me move forward all the time and had my whole life. And he pulled out one of his books and READ TO ME. In the middle of the San Diego Convention Center, just me and him. Like my own dad NEVER HAD IN MY LIFE. So like. I fucking stan this moment and this writer. Heâs everything yall. He really is.

âIâm almost 50, and here is the best thing I have learned so far: every strange thing youâve ever been into, every failed hobby or forgotten instrument, everything you have ever learned will come back to you, will serve you when you need it. No love, however brief, is wasted.â @louisethebaker on Twitter
No love, however brief, is wasted.
No time either. Even if you invest it in people who leave you. When youâre building others, youâre building yourself also. No time is wasted.

this is making me scream. she sheer difference in votes between first and second place
Researchers have used Easter Island Moai replicas to show how they might have been âwalkedâ to where they are displayed.

Finally. People need to realize aliens arenât the answer for everything (when they use it to erase poc civilizations and how smart they were)

Whatâs really wild is that the native people literally told the Europeans âthey walkedâ when asked how the statues were moved. The Europeans were like âlol these backwards heathens and their fairy tales guess itâs gonna always be a mystery!â
Maori told Europeans that kiore were native rats and no one believed them until DNA tests proved it
And the Iroquois told Europeans that squirels showed them how to tap maple syrup and no one believed them until they caught it on video
Oral history from various First Nations tribes in the Pacific Northwest contained stories about a massive earthquake/tsunami hitting the coast, but no one listened to them until scientists discovered physical evidence of quakes from the Cascadia fault line.
Roopkund Lake AKA âSkeleton Lakeâ in the Himalayas in India is eerie because it was discovered with hundreds of skeletal remains and for the life of them researchers couldnât figure out what it was that killed them. For decades the âmysteryâ went unsolved.
Until they finally payed closer attention to local songs and legend that all essentially said âYah the Goddess Nanda Devi got mad and sent huge heave stones down to kill themâ. That was consistent with huge contusions found all on their neck and shoulders and the weather patterns of the area, which are prone to huge & inevitably deadly goddamn hailstones. https://www.facebook.com/atlasobscura/videos/10154065247212728/
Literally these legends were past down for over a thousand years and it still took researched 50 to âfigure outâ the âmysteryâ. đ
Adding to this, the Inuit communities in Nunavut KNEW where both the wrecks of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror were literally the entire time but Europeans/white people didnât even bother consulting them about either ship until likeâŚlast year.Â
âInuit traditional knowledge was critical to the discovery of both ships, she pointed out, offering the Canadian government a powerful demonstration of what can be achieved when Inuit voices are included in the process.
In contrast, the tragic fate of the 129 men on the Franklin expedition hints at the high cost of marginalising those who best know the area and its history.
âIf Inuit had been consulted 200 years ago and asked for their traditional knowledge â this is our backyard â those two wrecks would have been found, lives would have been saved. Iâm confident of that,â she said. âBut they believed their civilization was superior and that was their undoing.â

âOh yeah, I heard a lot of stories about Terror, the ships, but I guess Parks Canada donât listen to people,â Kogvik said. âThey just ignore Inuit stories about the Terror ship.â
Schimnowski said the crew had also heard stories about people on the land seeing the silhouette of a masted ship at sunset.
âThe community knew about this for many, many years. Itâs hard for people to stop and actually listen ⌠especially people from the South.â

Indigenous Australians have had stories about giant kangaroos and wombats for thousands of years, and European settlers just kinda assumed they were myths. Cut to more recently when evidence of megafauna was discovered, giant versions of Australian animals that died out 41 000 years ago.
Similarly, scientists have been stumped about how native Palm trees got to a valley in the middle of Australia, and it wasnât until a few years ago that someone did DNA testing and concluded that seeds had been carried there from the north around 30 000 years ago⌠aaand someone pointed out that Indigenous people have had stories about gods from the north carrying the seeds to a valley in the central desert.
oh man let me tell you about Indigenous Australian myths - the framework they use (with multi-generational checking thatâs unique on the planet, meaning thereâs no drifting or mutation of the story, seriously they are hardcore about maintaining integrity) means that we literally have multiple first-hand accounts of life and the ecosystem before the end of the last ice age
itâs literally the oldest accurate oral history of the world. Â
Now consider this: most people consider the start of recorded history to be with  the Sumerians and the Early Dynastic period of the Egyptians.  So around 3500 BCE, or five and a half thousand years ago These highly accurate Aboriginal oral histories originate from twenty thousand years ago at least
Ainât it amazing what white people consider history and what they donât?
I always said disservice is done to oral traditions and myth when you take them literally. Ancient people were not stupid.
