Chronological Canon Compliant Rec List

something about roman being the only one of the big three roy kids who is unable to give a speech at their father’s funeral, at the cost of his reputation

something about cordelia being the only one of king lear’s three children who can’t give her father a public declaration of love, even in exchange for power

something about roman and cordelia both being cut out because their love runs too deep for words and that is considered an unforgivable weakness

something about cordelia ultimately dying a martyrs death,,,,,,,,,,, but I’m sure roman roy is going to be alright,,,,,,,, right?

I get the weirdest Deckerstar parallels in my head sometimes: Now, on Talk Like A Pirate Day, it’s Kermit as Captain Smollet for Chloe and Lucifer as Miss Piggy in Muppet Treasure Island. What is up with my brain?

we’re doing marx next week in intro to philosophy and i for one can not wait to hear the takes from some great classmates such as 

dude who sits in front of an NRA flag every week and talks about Liberty and how proud he was to serve in the army. (he’s the one who for some reason thought socrates was christian. guaranteed to voice his opinion at length about how evil communism is)

girl who wears a MAGA hat every week despite being indoors and on a zoom call. likes to chime in at least once to bring up jesus. i will acknowledge that she does make decent connections between what we’re discussing and the bible and she’s definitely getting participation credit in, but really you dont need to say “Jesus said that God loves us and we should be nice :)” every time. we get it. (honestly i think she might agree with the passages we’ve been assigned so im interested to see that happen)

guy who just fucking vapes the entire time and offers takes so nonsensical that the professor has to take a moment to consider what the fuck he just heard. (really just hoping to hear him go on about what he thinks aliens will be like. has happened before. very slight but exciting chance that he unironically supports posadism)

thank you for @okvolkee for alerting me of this!!

justin colby has been taken into custody by chicago police, and his family hasn’t heard from since. the police is now lying that they have him in his custody.

[image description: the first tweet is by user trillxmomma and reads, in all caps, “HF STUDENT JUSTIN COSBY TAKEN INTO POLICE CUSTODY LAST NIGHT AND NOW HE IS MISSING”. attached are to the tweet are two photos. the first photo is a screenshot of a facebook message from user grace tosi. it reads “Justin Cosby is missing. He is one of ours. He is apart of the HF community. HE IS MISSING. He was arrested, and from what I heard, also beaten because he squirted CPD with water guns at last nights protest. That should not result in being beaten and arrested. If you hold any type of power, use it for good now. Right now. Make your calls. Help his family find him. He was arrested around 8:30 pm and that was the last time he was seen. His date of birth is 8/14/2000. Are you still wondering how you can help all that’s going on? HERE IS YOUR ANSWER.” the second photo attached to the tweet is a photo of justin cosby. he is a young black man with short textured hair. he is wearing a dark blue zip up jacket that has a blue “M” on the chest.]

[image description: the second tweet by user “imyagirleva” and reads “Justin Cosby was detained by the police last night at the protest, and no one has heard from him since 8:40pm. THIS WAS THE LAST TIME HE WAS SEEN. His mother needs help finding him. She has called around and heard nothing. Please help!” attached to the tweet is a photo of a large group of chicago police men, at least ten cops, surrounding and restraining justin cosby. justin is looking at the camera in the photo, and he is slouched over while the police have his hands tied and are holding him up.]

[image description: the third tweet is by user jehanpatterson. it reads in all caps, “CHICAGO POLICE IS TELLING HIS PARENTS THEY DO NOT HAVE HIM IN CUSTODY. THEY ARE LYING ABOUT HIS LOCATION. WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM IN 17 HOURS.”]

this pride month, please please please do not let the black lives matter movement go ignored. the lgbtq movement owes so much to black members of our community. we are not free until all of us are.

what is happening now is change in action. if you care about activism, and you should, you know that blm deserves to be seen, their voices to be heard.

pride matters, and we should still celebrate, still fight, still demand our place in the world. but black and indigenous people need our support right now. cops are not our friends. oppression is never okay. privilege is never comfortable. if you are white or non-black, refuse to let support for blm die down.

this pride, let’s fight for each other. demand spaces for lgbtq people of colour. let their voices be heard. listen.

you can help.

If I have an A level in a foreign language, do I need to go to language school as an AU pair?

Happy pride month, don't lose focus on the movement going on tho. Be gay, do crimes. Be gay, protest. Be gay while supporting black lives matter. You have the range
