mythology series → the bride of death persephone [Περσεφόνη]
i was a heavy heart to carry
my beloved was weighed down
my arms around his neck
my fingers laced to crown
i was a heavy heart to carry
my feet dragged across ground
and he took me to the riverwhere he slowly let me drown

♕ Day 2: Favourite Residence (Part 2 of 2)
The Catherine Palace (Russian: Екатерининский дворец) is one of my favorite two Romanov residences. The Alexander Palace is the other. The Catherine Palace is a Rococo palace located in the town of Tsarskoe Selo, built in early 18th-century. It was the summer residence of the Russian tsars. Empress Catherine I of Russia is the namesake of the palace. Although the palace is popularly associated with Catherine the Great, she actually regarded its “whipped cream” architecture as old-fashioned.
I HAVE SO MANY STARK CHILDREN FEELS

Ok here is my issue. There’s this great article circulating the internet about a letter a “fat chick” woman wrote to the asshole CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch. And it’s great that she called him out for being an asshole and saying that he doesn’t want like fat people in his store. that’s fuckin awful.
BUT
part of this article prefaces with saying, in bold, that “two out of every three adults is considered overweight” in America.
That’s really not okay. And you shouldn’t use that as part of your argument.
Everyone has issues with health and their bodies. Everybody. But we’ve started this culture, on the internet and in the media in recent years, that tells you that it’s ok to be fat. And ya know, it is. To a point.
Unfortunately, in this country, we have taken the idea of being overweight to a whole new level. And it is seriously not okay. And the only thing we’re doing about it is pushing everyone to buy organic(!!!) food that is crazy expensive, and then starting initiatives every few years to get kids to go outside and play some more.
No one is saying to these adults, “Hey. You’re not healthy. Knock it off.”
And I think someone should.
Ok. There ya go. Yell if you wish.
Ok I know nobody’s really read the Claidi Journals on here, but still.
Argul and Nemian. it’s weird. It’s really weird how well this works.
ugh.

Anonymous asked: they arent 20 years apart in the show they are only five....only the actors have the age difference... the characters are only 5 years apart.
I know. I was referring to the actors. Hence the catherine zeta jones reference. So pairing maisie williams who is 16 and looks 12 with joe dempsie who is 25 is awkward. But thanks anon.
i have never seen this gif used more perfectly

SEE: EVERY BOOK EVER.
We saw some amazing actresses for this part. But when Karen came through the door, the game was up — she was funny, clever, gorgeous and sexy. Or Scottish, which is the quick way of saying it. A generation of little girls will want to be her. And a generation of little boys will want them to be her too.
Ok seriously, I will get to watching Doctor Who eventually, but for now- the top left picture and the one right below it- SHE WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD GEMMA DOYLE. cmon!!!
REALLY.
and then elyes gabel as kartik. done. your welcome.
