Why are carved rocks more fashionable than I am

Oooh I love this. When I look at old works I can’t quite get my head wrapped around the fact that they’re just people like me. This makes it seem so much more so

Just traumatized my mother with the Christmas special from Call the Midwife. Apparently nothing makes a woman with four teenage daughters cry like the idea of a teenage girl going off to have a baby in a abandoned warehouse??? She’s still sobbing, I don’t know what to do.

In honor of Lord Byron’s birthday I would like to remind you all of the time that Shelley and Keats, having not heard from him for some time, became concerned for his safety and it was determined that Shelley would go looking for him. Keats received a letter some time later that Shelley had found him in Venice, where he’d been having so much sex that he’d nearly died from malnourishment and dehydration. Keats’ entire response amounted to essentially, “You should probably have let him.”

“I found him, he’s in a gutter.” “Well go put him back”

my favorite clone wars episodes are the ones where Padme is like “Bail! I need you to come with me on a very important mission for the Galactic Senate!” and Bail is like “Yes of course, Padme. I am always willing to assist my fellow senators in diplomatic missions” and then she hands gives him a gun is like “Cool, meet me at the docks at 1:30am. tell no one. wear quiet shoes and dark clothes”

poor Bail, I swear this woman tried so hard to kill him

A Galaxy Far, Far Away Kashyyyk

The forested planet of the Wookiees, where the giant creatures lived in homes built into the gnarled wroshyr tree trunks and defended their land with weapons carved of wroshyr wood. Unfortunately, after the Clone Wars, the Wookiee race on Kashyyyk was enslaved by the Empire, forced to supply their oppressors with weaponry carved from their own ancestral trees. In a time of revolt, the Empire massacred much of the wookiee population.

After the defeat of the Empire, the New Republic was hardly better, refusing to send aid or supplies to the desperate planet – so its greatest living war hero, Chewbacca, and his human compatriot Han Solo (who personally freed Chewie from his enslavement years earlier) took it upon themselves.
