havingbeenbreathedout: leontinemay: [[MORE]] Woah…I’m suddenly hyper-aware of my Jewishness, and everything that would have entailed in the 40s and 50s. How weird and interesting. History! Yeah, those historical realizations are kind of vertigo-inducing, at least for me. Sometimes I get all nostalgic about a past era and then I have a moment of clarity where I realize no, actually, during...

I don’t think Van Gogh really meant to cut off his ear. He was just trying to get everything framed before ordering lunch.

I love this drawing. It’s sweet as hell, and I love how this possible version of the male lead in Tangled is big and beefy and not shaped exactly like every other prince in the magic kingdom. This is also pretty much how I pictured Peeta in The Hunger Games. More sketches on Jin Kim’s blog here.

Oh, oh, I have one! More cross-dressing ladies of the past for havingbeenbreathedout, songstersmiscellany, and anyone else who likes that kind of thing. Because in the future? Women are going to be journalists! (many more here and here)

“He was born with a gift of laughter and the sense that the world was mad.”
– The opening line of Scaramouche by Rafael Sabatini and also the epitaph on his gravestone. (via petitepoche) Best opening line ever. (Sorry, Charles Dickens.)

greencarnations: leontinemay reblogged your video: Bilbo’s and my outdoor ADVENTURE They are illegal in NYC! Isn’t that the worst thing you ever heard? I was at a party with one last night, though, so… A lot of breeders won’t knowingly sell to states they’re illegal in, so that can be problematic. And DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT try to have them in California or PA. They will…dispose of your...
