Being high acheiving doesn't necessarily mean making the right decisions all the time. It does mean choosing to double down and be uncomfortable for a little while after you've procrastinated or managed your time poorly. Most of us cant be perfect students 24/7. Making the decision to work even harder after you fuck up instead of settling is what sets you apart in those situations.
Remember in 2010 when Taio Cruz said "I throw my hands up in the air sometimes"? I appreciated his restraint. You can't just throw your hands up in the air whenever. There's a time and a place, and that time was 2010, and the place was the club.
I can’t be the only one who noticed that, since Bridgerton came out, everyone has started to believe that “any historical fashion from any time period ever” is now “Bridgerton”. Edwardian ball gown? Bridgerton. 1860s hoop skirt? Bridgerton. Billie Eilish’s 1880s inspired dress? “Regencycore” and “Goth Bridgerton” (two actual headlines I saw today)
It’s so small but it makes me want to combust
As a museum worker I can attest: it used to be Downton Abbey.
I worked at a house from the 1790s for a while, and people were forever referencing Downton Abbey. One man outright asked me "is this like the Downton Abbey era?" (I finagled it into "well, they both pulled heavily from classical influences in style and design, so that's a great connection to make!")
I don't blame the average Joe for this, to be clear. Most of them have probably never had cause to think about historical anything except when they're watching the latest trendy period piece. Which is understandable! I don't think much about robots unless I'm watching or reading sci-fi, so I'd probably make huge egregious mistakes in discussing them. Not Everything Is Everyone's Thing, and that's okay!
But.
If you're a professional writer/journalist with google at your fingertips...I have less sympathy.
(...also okay yes I freely admit that the less charitable side of me wants to shriek "HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THE DIFFERENCE?!" at even ordinary people who get these things mixed up. But we shove that side in a broom closet and lock the door except in private conversations with sympathetic friends.)
(also also, Regencycore as an actual thing WHEN)

The Tudors costumes; Tv show vs Reality
Excuse my drawing skills, I sketched this on my phone whose screen is 70% damaged by oil and without any stylus just with my finger
Many people think that the romance between Anne Boleyn and Henry the VIII sparkled during the Château Vert pageant in which Anne played the role of Lady Perseverance. This scene was depicted in multiple Tudor media and even inspired original works, but historicaly speaking there is a slim chance that the two even spole together during the pageant.
The Tudors Costume:
What we see: Peineta- a Spanish Comb from 19th century (yes, similiar one existed before but this one is quite modern)
Floating ruffle- late 16th century (at least something from the same century)
18th century inspired top/corset showing niples (verry classy and smegsy)
A skirt which looks like 1950s petticoat
Yeah, As you may have noticed not period accurate but I have a fun story about it! I watched the episode when I was seven (Yes, I was a neglected child, moving on) and I really really wanted to be like Anne so I drew a heart under my eye... with a permanent marker. My parents were delighted, to say the least.

Sorry the drawing is Cursed but it serves its purpose
I'll disappoint a lot of you but... No nipples I bet you did not expect that, ha. In real life, the eight ladies wore gowns in the Italian style, from Milan, Lombardy to be exact. Made from white satin, with the name of their virtue embroidered (with gold) on their gowns and Milan bonnets (actually called balzo) with cauls (the handkerchief-like thing under the balzo) on their heads. Can you imagine how expensive that must have been, especially for Boleyns who had to pay for two daughters (Marry was there too, she played Lady Kindness)
The most challenging for me (not counting the FUCKING FINGERS) was where to put the embroidered name of the lady. It was mentioned that it was on a dress but not specifically mentioned on which part so put it on an overskirt since on a top it looked like a sorority shirt.

Why are people acting like another Trump administration couldn't possibly have any lasting consequences, when we're still dealing with the aftermath of the Reagan administration now.
I thought it was just an act but you really are sweet as fucking pie, aren't you?
POOR THINGS (2023) dir. Yorgos Lanthimos
It's me. I'm the distant aunt.
Becoming Elizabeth (2022) Elizabeth (1998) Elizabeth I (2005)
What makes Poor Things so ultimately triumphant for me is the way that Bella Baxter is, despite it all, her own creation. She came into the world in an experiment that violated the autonomy of both Victoria before her and Bella herself, but she steps beyond the parameters of the experiment and into the world, to learn from it. The intentions of men may be to possess her or use her or take joy in despoiling her vulnerability, but their intentions do not determine her experiences. She decides. She explores. She looks at a world full of sorrow that could render her helpless and chooses instead to do what she can about it and then sleep easy at night. She listens to the call of her curiosity before all else, her happiness second, her compassion third. The family that she makes for herself in the end is unconventional, but it's ultimately hers and allows her to flourish as a doctor with an experimental nature and a heart of patinaed silver.
And I don't think it could be that particular kind of triumphant if the movie wasn't so fucked up.

Pretty patrician Jessie did not sign up for werewolf life. Stuck in a hairy form with paws and a tail? Gross. She really wants her pampered life back, but she doesn't want to lose her fated mate, however wolfish her mate may be...
