jk rowling's new reputation will never not be funny to me. when you see her name now you dont think "oh yeah thats the chick who wrote harry potter" you think "oh lord, this TERF bitch again" like bro how do you fuck up so bad that your fuck ups overshadow writing the third most read piece of literature in existence

#literally like I was saying earlier!#these books could have just quietly gone down in history as a much-beloved piece of children's/teen fiction#and people would have been like 'it's kind of problematic but the pros outweigh the cons so I'll read it to the kids'#but Rowling was SO desperate to keep herself relevant that she's driven HP into the fucking earth

“Anne Bonny and Mary Read were pirates, as renowned for their ruthlessness as for their gender, and during their short careers challenged the sailors’ adage that a woman’s presence on shipboard invites bad luck.”

Sculpture by Erik Christianson.

I’m not entirely sure that the statue really needed to have a tit out.

How dare women try to have nipples.

Actually I’ve seen this before and I can tell you— it’s because these women were bad ass pirates and when they killed someone they’d expose one or both breasts so that when their victim died, (s)he knew that they were killed by a woman.

ACTUALLY Anne Bonny purposely wore loose fitting clothes and displayed her breasts openly at all times during battle - mainly because men were distracted by them, and she took pleasure in killing said men while they were too busy staring at her breasts. Mary Read dressed mainly as a man (after posing as her deceased brother, Mark, for the entirety of her childhood) and both ladies cross-dressed from time to time, hopping between ships. They were known as the ‘fierce hell cats’ due to their ferocious tempers, and were key elements to Captain ‘Calico Jack’ Rackham’s crew - they were the only two known female pirates in the Golden Age of Caribbean piracy. IN FACT, when the ship was captured by the British Navy, Anne and Mary were the ONLY TWO pirates who fought while the males of the crew hid - they were all tried to be hung as pirates but Bonny and Read were both pregnant and were pardoned.

Calico Jack was a lover to Bonny, and as he was to be hung, Bonny’s final words to him were, “Had you fought like a man, you need not be hung like a dog.” Bonny and Read were possibly two of the most badass fucking pirates and they were FEMALE. The more you know.

And on top of all that, exposed breasts have a long and storied history of symbolism in art. They mean all sorts of things. The sculptor may have chosen to expose her left breast specifically to denote her courage–her heart is exposed–or to evoke comparison to Amazon warriors, who cut off their right breasts.

Titties are complex in art.

ok so yes we're all rightfully pissed that rise of the pink ladies was cancelled but lets appreciate that the wlw ship actually had a good ending instead of it being left on a cliffhanger of whether or not they'd end up together

Happy pride month y’all w some Rinvenka <3

kostaswift

rinvenka i cant stop thinking about them venka telling Rin to burn the mugonise and rin blowing up that island, when they meet again in book2 and rin was self pitying because she couldn’t call the fire anymore and Venka was like “well you still can use the sword cant you” and Rin being like yeah well you are right, because Rin never pitied Venka unlike all the people around her that treated her like she was broken, so of course Venka wouldn’t pity Rin and wouldn’t give Rin any more reasons to feel sorry for herself, when kittay and rin make it back to arlorg and venka elbows her way to the front , grabs Rin’s elbow and first thing she tells her is “you smell” and how in book 3 when venka goes back to their camp Rin embraces but quickly lets go because Venka was now the smelly one, in book 2 telling Rin after her and Kittay rescued her “sorry it took us a while to get to you” and WINKS, Rin telling venka to fight for her and venka smiling teasingly and telling her with a flirty tone “well commander i am at your service” venka making jokes of how Rin is horrible with people and venka telling her to burn the whorehouses and rin doing it despite not being the best practical thing, and super bad at feelings rin wanting to chase after venka and hold her tight and sob until they both run out of tears but not doing it because venka will think she’s pitying her, something something about two broken girls loving each other so much
