Les Modes : Revue Mensuelle Illustrée Des Arts Décoratifs Appliqués à La Femme, No. 94, Vol. 8, Octobre

Situationship this. Casual that. I'm sick of it. Why does nobody form a polycule based on hunting vampires together anymore. Humanity is lost.

"but the text never explicitly stated it!!!" hey, so that's actually what they tried to teach you in those english classes you barely passed 😁

1. Garland Ironmonger is the best name I’ve ever seen.

2. I looked Mr. Ironmonger up and it turns out he grew up to be an honest to god fighter pilot.

3. COLONEL Ironmonger flew F-86 Sabres.

4. Garland Ironmonger: Sabrejet Pilot sounds like something straight out of a bad 70s sci-fi novel that I would totally read.

The long sir Francis Varney post

It’s October, so I think it’s a proper time to write about vampires again (to be fair, vampires can be expected here around the year…). But first, a little rant about a slightly non-related thing; it bothers me when people use the term ”guilty pleasure” to describe something that is actually well made, even high art, just because they are embarrassed to like it. No, Mr. Fragile Masculinity Man, liking ballet does not make it your guilty pleasure just because none of your friends are into it. It’s still art. It’s still something that requires incredible skill to accomplish. In my opinion, guilty pleasure means things that you know are poorly or lazily made and generally not good literature/film/art/whatever, and yet you still like them.

Why I bring this up is because tonight I want to write about my own guilty pleasure when it comes to vampire fiction. No, it’s not Twilight. Or any other vampire romance. If I have to pick a book that is simultaneously among the most poorly written I own and also one I genuinely like, it would have to be James Malcolm Rymer’s massive penny dreadful Varney the Vampyre, or The Feast of Blood.

Official oc lineup?!?! (sort of) + info

As I mentioned and posted before, this takes place during the Edwardian era where the Wild West is ending and the beginning of modern times. this is the first part of the lineup (1/2) since there are more characters to be shown! This is the updated version of my edwardian ocs.

old men next...

Seriously though were people in the past just constantly giggling at the word “suck” being written with a long s like was that a thing do you think

I want you to remember:

The fascists hate you too and they just will pretend otherwise until after they've killed the rest of us, before they turn on you.

Trump is spending $850,000 per flight to deport 80 immigrants at a time.

It would literally be cheaper to just give each immigrant an unconditional $10,000.

People only care about the cost when it involves helping people. When it involves hurting people, they never care what it costs.
