Honestly the biggest disappointment I had researching ABC was that medieval authors did not, in fact, see the creatures they were describing and were trying their best to describe them with their limited knowledge while going “what the fuck… what the fuck…”

Instead all those creatures you know came about from transcription and translation errors from copying Greco-Roman sources (who themselves got them from travelers’ tales from Persia and India - rhino -> unicorn, tiger -> manticore, python -> dragon, and so on).

So unicorns are real

I always thought animals in medieval manuscripts looked like the result of having to draw say. A Tree Kangaroo, but your only source for what it looked like was your friend who heard it from a fellow who knows a man who swears he saw one once, whilst very drunk and lost, and I am SO PLEASED  to find out this is, in fact, the case.

Umineko no Naku Koro ni is the kind of series that you love so much that you want to forget everything about it so that you can experience it anew all over again and I want everybody to go through the suffering of not being able to do just that because it’s so good and I honestly cannot recommend it enough please read it it’s so good I die every time it’s one of the best vns i’ve ever read please i’m

I feel that wars are extremely disrespectful to women.. women make literally all those people and then men just destroy them, disregarding insane amount of pain, work, sacrifice, love, energy, time it took women to make just one person, and then they go and demand “you have to make more!!!” and we’re like “uh we literally saw what you did to last bunch no thanks” and then they’re offended and call us murderers?? like excuse me I would like to not contribute a human resource for your killing game? And I think you all owe women about thousand apologies? Stop unmaking everything we make and breaking our hearts in the process, and this is even without addressing the rampant violence and sexual aggression towards women in wars, every single war is a crime against women more than anyone else and nothing will change my mind.

marie antoinette was a clueless teenage girl thrown into a marriage and country she had no choice in, and has been slandered for hundreds of years since her death, with made up quotes such as “let them eat cake” when her final words were actually apologising to a guard for stepping on his toes, the fact that despite the extravagance she was much less fancy and money wasting than previous royals, and the erasure of her efforts to listen to and help the people despite having no political experience and her king-husband being useless, all providing a perfect example of the sexualised demonisation of young women with any semblance of power throughout history, and in this essay i will

i’m in the middle of writing my dissertation on the european witch trials and the more research i do into it the more it bothers me that the whole thing has become such a gimmick today, like the town i live in runs a nightly ‘ghost tour’ which ends on the hill where they hung 12 women for witchcraft in the mid 17th century. the reality is the witch trials were a crime against humanity, the victims were mostly children, widows and elderly women and some historians have estimated that the total number of people tortured and killed was upwards of half a million. it’s such a torrid chapter of human history but it’s viewed almost entirely as a joke outside of academic spheres and i think we all know the reason why

“When I was a student at Cambridge I remember an anthropology professor holding up a picture of a bone with 28 incisions carved in it. ‘This is often considered to be man’s first attempt at a calendar’ she explained. She paused as we dutifully wrote this down. ‘My question to you is this – what man needs to mark 28 days? I would suggest to you that this is woman’s first attempt at a calendar.’ It was a moment that changed my life. In that second I stopped to question almost everything I had been taught about the past. How often had I overlooked women’s contributions?” ― Sandi Toksvig
