One of John William Waterhouse’s last paintings.
Miranda, 1916, John William Waterhouse
Medium: oil,canvas
-Lissa: Reads all the latest research papers and makes a lovely speech recommending all Moroi practice social distancing. Is struggling to maintain a solid work/life balance.
-Christian: Makes terrible jokes to cheer Lissa up, and ensures she doesn’t forget to eat food, drink blood, and get some sleep.
-Rose: Is going crazy from being in quarantine and feels pissed she can’t kill this motherfucking virus.
-Dimitri: Spars with Rose to help with her frustration and is learning to knit. His first knitting project is a scarf for his mother.
-Mia: Is paranoid that she’s going to get the virus even though Moroi are immune, and prays REALLY hard that a vaccine is coming ASAP even though she’s not normally religious.
-Abe: Is secretly funneling some of his money to help research a cure and/or a vaccine for the virus.
I got this idea from incorrect roman quotes, and decided it was too funny NOT to post.
I’ll help you with it! : Lissa Dragomir
Yeah, sure: Eddie Castile, Jill Mastrano
Bold of you to assume I did the homework: Mason Ashford
Um, no: Mia Rinaldi
Wait. We had homework? : Rose Hathaway

kreia: that was not the most pleasant landing i've endured. next time, we should perhaps seek out a more reputable pilot.
atton: okay boomer
Seriously, it is not lesbophobic to rightfully object to your identity being erased. Would it have been that hard for the person taking the pictures to call it a queer wedding, a bisexual wedding, a wlw wedding, or even a same gender wedding?
"Lesbian can be used as an adjective for wlw duh." But also "Don't you dare use lesbian if you're bi/pan!"
Heaven Forbid the bisexual brides feel their sexuality is invalidated by being known as "sword lesbians" online when they are both bisexual. Can y'all just say you hate m-spec women and go to hell?
A gruesome, but excellently drawn art of Mark Antony dying in Cleopatra’s arms.

Definitely reblogging for luck.
it’s the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century.
you can only reblog this today.
This is awesome!
My recreations of ancient Roman hairstyles for my Roman Society project! Julia Domna (portrait bust style 2) and Faustina the Younger.
Best game idea ever!
instead of going to jail, you get exiled to Scythia
passing Go represents the bribes you collect every election season
instead of owning property on city blocks, you own land in various provinces
Boardwalk and Park Place ==> Egypt and Syria
Baltic and Mediterranean ==> Britannia Prima and Britannia Secunda
instead of houses and hotels, villae and latifundia
instead of railroads, just roads
water works ==> bathhouse
electric company ==> amphitheater
free parking ==> forum
income tax ==> wealth tax
re-skinned Chance and Community Chest cards:
“You have been elected Aedile – pay each player 50 denarii”
“Get out of Exile Free”
“Saturnalia Fund Matures – Collect 100 denarii”
“Greek Theater Night – collect 50 denarii from every player for opening night seats”
“Land Tax Refund – collect 20 denarii”
“Receive 25 denarii in bribes”
So called pro lifers claim to care so much about disabled people just, because they screech about people who get abortions because the fetus has Down syndrome, but don’t say a word when caregivers murder disabled people. They also want to cut benefits for disabled people (which are difficult enough to qualify for and are extremely punitive) and stand by while disabled people lose custody of their children, because of their disabilities.
Plus, their creepy fetus worshipping stance means they’d let me die if a wanted pregnancy goes very wrong (e.g. ectopic pregnancy, sepsis, preeclampsia). And they don’t acknowledge the hundreds of disabled people (especially disabled POC) who were sterilized against their will.
In short, they are hypocritical jerks who honestly don’t give a shit about disabled people.
*after Kreia kills the Jedi masters*
The Exile: But WHY?!
Kreia: You were there. Vrook wanted to kill you, so I killed him, then everyone saw me kill Vrook so I killed everyone. You must end the entire order to prevent revenge killings. That's Jedi Killing 101.
Atton: Uh, I taught that class at the Korriban Academy and we never covered anything this fucked up.
I'm torn between agreeing with Atton, and laughing while picturing him as an actual teacher.
