did you see the interview where Hilary Mantel said “Mary is emotionally compromised or, as she would see it, morally compromised, because of the attraction she feels to him. She is angry – with herself.“? ☠️ Mary was not attracted to cromwell lmao; she was just being polite to an important administrator. What do you think of the Cromwell-Mary relationship, or how wolf hall handles it?
Why does every woman in the Tudor court have to have weird sexual tension with Cromwell?! Anne Boleyn, Mary Boleyn, Jane Seymour, now Mary... I am not a fan lol.
I think the Cromwell-Mary relationship was nothing more than Mary interacting with him because he was her father's chief advisor and unless you'd done something horrible, Mary seemed to be nice to people. I'm sure she also thought being friendly with him would help her situation, via Cromwell influencing her father.
But I can just see they're going to use the fact she drew him for a Valentine irl to portray their relationship more romantic ew.
I know adverbs are controversial, but "said softly" means something different than "whispered" and this is the hill I will die on.
Another thing I’ve been thinking about Freddie Fox is in one of his interviews the journalist writes that Freddie refers to Stephen Fry as a family friend. But I read this interview after I had seen the clip of QI where SF did an impression of Edward Fox, and I got it mixed up and became really confused, but later when I rewatched it I realised two people did impressions of EF in that clip and it’s actually not SF who implied EF was kind of homophobic. (Btw the term used is very curious and I could never understand: ‘a fleet of berties’ ?????? Came to think about it I did a search again and found a discussion that I’ve already bookmarked but it still doesn’t seem totally clear to me: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskUK/s/4KPv0ELFuE)
其实这边虽然比较少比较慢但也有在改,比如阿尔茨海默病,但有好些人就喜欢把抱残守缺当作文化自信
What’s wrong with these fandom people always trying to invalidate other people’s theories by repeating ‘obsession is not love’?? These two are not mutually exclusive!

This reminds of a twitter post I saw the other day. OP says they never understand why snowing makes some people happy, because it makes a lot of other people’s lives worse. That post single-handedly destroyed my biggest joy in life since childhood. I can understand how thunderstorms can be very dangerous and also I don’t necessarily need them in my life, but how can I not wishing for snow to happen???????
fuck’d up ship idea from @sun-wukong-brain-rot where tripitaka is just off his shits

I loved him at first sight. I have learned to love him more. I will love him until I die. I wish in next life I could still be in the same world which has his soul.
