harry styles (or at least his public persona) has proven nothing but a great human being who’s been polite and humble through rude interviews, who connects to his fans in a very special way, a genuinely funny and charismatic entertainer and a good singer with a lot of songwriting potential. he’s supporting the lgbt community by touring with muna (a self-defined ‘queer-girl’ band) and he’s defended his teenage girl fans through countless of condescending interviews.  if you don’t want to like him because you’re a 50 year old man who hates one direction fine by me, just don’t come into my inbox telling me what and what not to like because there’s nothing that annoys me more than pretentious snobs

Thank you, my darling babes!! @mutiyon omg thanks, that is such an amazing compliment! I actually have very little arm muscle to speak of, but what I do have is from doing fencing practice all last year, and doing kyudo this year. I haven't done much of anything the past month or two because of school projects though. 😅

Sadly I never learnt much about the Ukrainian Cossack fencing! Don’t know how exactly the base stance looks like there to compare it with the Polish one. They could be similar because those techniques were developed alongside each other, and both were initially drawing from the same Tatar and Turkish sabre techniques.

And the prince is like:

well i thought about that but in my naivity i supposed he couldn’t have meant abortion since…who the fuck aborts in the first week? most people don’t even know they’re pregnant in the first fucking week ffs

Hello, the Hussars weren’t wearing any typical ‘full face’ helmets. In many helmets, particularly from the early 17th century, the nasal bar had simply an elaborate wide decoration that covered most of the face. The shape of the most typical decorative nasals is usually described as a ‘wide leaf’ or reverse 'ogee arch’ ('ośli grzbiet’) in the Polish sources. It was a movable part of the helmet and as far as I know most of those nasals could’ve been easily detached. The thinner nasal protection was of course also common. The Hussars weren’t exactly uniform and their whole armour shows a great range of idividuality: they were crafting, ordering and buying everything themselves. You might guess here that the simpler-looking armours belonged most likely to the less-wealthy individuals. There were also differences between helmets from the various regions of the Commonwealth. Hope it helps for a start!

I bet he smells like when you leave the laundry in the washer too long and it starts to smell moldy
