Historical Trans Men

Alas, this proverbial saying comes from a very broken context. But whatever it refers to — clothing? sexual positions? dominance?— it adds further evidence that ancient Mesopotamians considered gender-bending practices a part of their society.

decadent-dilettante がリブログしました: marzipanandminutiae annabellioncourt フォローWhy Sarah Helen Whitman is more Goth than UThis is her.And she’s not even in mourning in this image, she’s wearing a shawl and veil and ribbons just because. So she always wore these gauzy outfits making her look like some ethereal ghost, her clique of other spooky ladies followed her around town and they held seances and read their own spooky poetry together.This woman was Victorian Goth-Goth. She was exemplifying the Victorian Goth style in the actual Victorian era, some accounts even say she wore feathers and beads and was more or less the Stevie Nicks of her day. She kept a mini-coffin that opened and shut like a locket around her neck at all times and never told anyone why. She also dated Edgar Allan Poe, who was a couple years younger than her, more or less as a token spooky boyfriend to go with her spooky life style.So yes. Sarah Helen Whitman is more goth than all of us.annabellioncourt This made it back to my dash.gothiccharmschool フォローI will always reblog this when it pops up.

Terry Pratchett about fantasy ❤

So...There's a scene in Good Omens Season 2 where we need an extract from Aziraphale's Diary in the 1820s. And as we were about to shoot him writing it, Douglas asked if we could see a bit of the previous diary entry as well. So I wrote one. As it turned out, we are too close up to read anything of the previous diary extract and only the final line is visible, if that.

I hated to imagine it going to waste.

So here's a small Valentine's Day gift for any of you who need cheering up. You will need to imagine the rest of the story.

“Madam!” I said, “I do believe that you have entirely misunderstood me!”

The countess drew herself to her full height, which I believe would have been about five feet and seven inches, and stared at me, quite puzzled. “No,” she said, “I believe that it is you who are mistaken, Mr Fell. For never have I met a man of any kind who could resist my blandishments.” And then, replacing her garments (which took much longer than shedding them), she added, “I do not know what manner of a man you are, Mr Fell. I trust you will still help my brother with his little problem.”
