I gave both of my parents a picture with these people on it and told them to write their first reactions of them. 

This is what happened.

Can we just have a moment of silence for those poor teens whose parents monitor their internet usage

Julie D’Aubigny was a 17th-century bisexual French opera singer and fencing master who killed or wounded at least ten men in life-or-death duels, performed nightly shows on the biggest and most highly-respected opera stage in the world, and once took the Holy Orders just so that she could sneak into a convent and shag a nun.

(via Feminism)

bisexual opera singer who killed ten men and snuck into a convent to shag a nun.

Just so y’all know, she later set that convent on fire so she and that nun could sneak out. And she seduced one of the men she’d dueled.

Also, dueling was a serious crime during her life, but the king of France essentially overturned her conviction on the grounds that the relevant law specifically referred to men. 

how has there never been a million stories about this badass

request: if you don’t like a show, don’t watch it. don’t watch it and complain to someone every five seconds. opinions are okay if posted on tumblr or stated generally but i don’t want to be complained to about a show that i like. thank you.

The Lovers of Valdaro.

Believed to be no older than twenty years of age when death occurred.
Over 5,000 years old.
Locked in an eternal embrace.

Tragically, their story is unknown.
Ironically, they were found in the city of Mantua. In Italy.
The city Shakespeare chose to set the story of Romeo & Juliet.

Hate to barge in on your post, but Romeo & Juliet was predominately set in Verona, where the main characters die. Mantua is only seen in Act V, scene 1, where Romeo is exiled before returning to fight Paris over Juliet’s grave.

• Find a complete stranger.

• Reveal to each other intimate details about your lives for half an hour.

• Then, stare deeply into each other’s eyes without talking for four minutes.

York psychologist, Professor Arthur Arun, has been studying why people fall in love.

He asked his subjects to carry out the above 3 steps and found that many of his couples felt deeply attracted after the 34 minute experiment. Two of his subjects later got married.

It’s like a morphological ‘fusion’ of verschlimmern ‘to make worse’ and verbessern ‘to improve’.

It means to make something even worse while trying to improve it.

We definitely need a version of this word in English.

I hereby submit “Crieff-ing”.

^ Perfect.
