Save Me Brazilian Catholic Guilt

Unreliable narrator that pretends that everything turned out the way he planned just to cope with the regret of what he had done.

the biologist autistic realness <333 the fascination with tidal pools and the ocean in gen; the feeling like she was placed in a family rather than born into it; the social disconnect and being okay with it; the feeling more comfortable in nature <333

And I love him so much despite of it... go Moneo we all had a weird ass relationship with a lot of red flags, I get you

halfway through God Emperor of Dune and my takeaway so far is the Atreides are all freaks but whatever is going on between Moneo and Leto II takes it to another level

Some Readings on Racial and Religious Alterity in Arthurian literature

Links where they’re publically available, otherwise feel free to dm me for a pdf if you don’t have university access! I particularly recommend that if you are white and a fan of Arthuriana, you read the first article here. It’s a short read and it both addresses the Islamic inspiration for Arthurian literature and also succinctly shows why Arthuriana can be profoundly alienating to a Muslim audience.

Hermes, Nizar. King Arthur in the Land of the Saracens

Sottosanti, Danielle. The Romance of Conversion: Crossover in Late-Medieval Literature

Keita, Maghan. Saracens and Black Knights

Goodrich, Peter. Saracens and Islamic Alterity in Malory’s “Le Morte Darthur”

Hoffman, Donald. Assimilating Saracens: The Aliens in Malory’s “Morte Darthur”

Putter, Ad. Walewein in the Otherworld and the Land of Prester John.

Adams, Jenny. Colonizing the Otherworld in Walewein.

If there’s one sentence I want everyone who sees this to read, it’s this, from Sottosanti’s dissertation:

As critics such as Heng and Bonnie J. Erwin have noted, conversion stories, such as the Constance story depicted by Chaucer and John Gower, proliferated during this period as a consequence of centuries of crusading efforts in the East.

t shirt that says i've misunderstood many social interactions

my guess is nasty gay sex tbh

just finished god emperor of dune and I need to know what the fuck Leto meant when he said Moneo and Malky had a pass together

Well, I am a stylist & designer, so i decided to make a small timeline of costumes featured in Good Omens S1&2. Some interviews with Claire Anderson were extremely helpful, and I used my own observations sometimes, so feel free to discuss & analyze everything with me. Hope @neil-gaiman would like it and S3 gonna be confirmed and give us more costumes <3

*in a masc way* hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become
