what this isn’t telling you is that she was a rather buxom young woman, and she would have been naked from the waist up, but also she was ill and so would have been breathing heavily and glimmering attractively with sweat, so honestly he was just saving himself from an awkward boner tbh
source: i own an 1821 edition of his book and he describes it in the most hilariously french manner
I mean, I’m quite glad as both a woman and a doctor that he did.
Technically a full respiratory or cardiac examination still requires someone to be exposed from the waist up, and I’m rather glad that I don’t have to be placing my ears against the sweaty chests of strangers, attractive or not.
a concept: future jake and amy having a kid BUT amy goes into labour on halloween and jake has to figure out if amy is cheating him out of the heist or if he’s actually about to have a kid
bold of you to assume she didnt plan to get pregnant exactly 9 months before halloween so that its actually both
bold of you to assume it wasnt jake who planned to get her pregnant exactly 9 months before so she’d be thrown off by contractions
bold of all of us to assume Holt didn’t pick an exact date to compliment them both so they’d have validation horniness so that jake AND amy were in disadvantage during the heist
Holt: your heteronormative lifestyle choices will bring about your demise
my prof, a fool: and in the 1995 bbc adaptation of pride and prejudice, you’ll see that darcy is often presented with water symbolism–the bath scene, emerging from the pond–and, given this, we can deduce that this means-
me, an intellectual: that bbc knew what they had with colin firth and did us all a solid

Anyways the one nice thing about the Rustles being absolute fucking idiots is that every time they try to “no homo” someone they’re delightfully bad at it.
Like that line in Civil War about Bucky’s ex Dottie or whatever was clearly supposed to be a “hehe bro remember that hot chick” moment but instead it had the tragically gay behavior of Bucky not even remembering her name because he spends all of his “dates” with women talking to/hanging out with Steve, meanwhile Steve has every ex of Bucky’s burned into his mind like a hit list he never got to complete asjdfhdsajkghdkjh
i imagine getting my own place all the time and going down to the grocery store early in the morning before everyone else and to the coffee shop and having a really small place with wide windows and lots of plants and shelves of books and a tiny kitchen where i can make tea and noodles and a bed with a pile of blankets and just a place i can make uniquely my own or maybe a place i could share with someone but i just think about this place a lot idk
One of my professors is an extremely famous, well-known painter who has been in galleries since he was a young man in the 80s. He once asked me in class, “Alyssa, what are your dreams and aspirations for the future?”
You should have seen the puzzled look on his face when I described something similar to the post above.
“Why so humble?!” He laughed. “You know you’re talented, right? You could aspire to a lot more than that for sure.”
And I had to take that moment to explain to him that this is what my generation is given, this is how low our standards for happiness have to be. A humble existence, a small piece of the world for ourselves, and comfortable stability are just as out of reach for some of us as fame and reknown was for him in the 80’s. His face went somber immediately.
I don’t know if you’ve seen them, Tom — many, many sketches and renderings and cartoons of our characters involved in what seems to be a deeply romantic and wildly sexual relationship.
I tell you this, I cherish every single one of those, and I will for the rest of my life.
Does anyone else remember the story about that poor lesbian who came out to her mother and her mother cried and said “it’s all that damn Keira Knightley’s fault, I knew I shouldn’t have let you watch pride and prejudice as a child” because I’m really feeling that now
