Her: I bet he’s thinking about other women

Him: People always go on about finding Cleopatra’s tomb but they are completely forgetting the circumstances of her death. She killed herself so that she could not be paraded through Egypt and Rome by the Romans, and its unlikely she would have wanted her body to suffer the same humiliation, so it’s reasonable to assume that her body would have been destroyed before the conquering forces got there. Moreover, even if that failed, the Romans would never give her a proper Egyptian burial and would have either destroyed her body or saw that it was disposed of without honours, ie in a pauper’s grave. It is therefore incredibly unlikely that we shall ever find the tomb of Cleopatra, and indeed, that it ever existed in the first place. History is written by the victors, afterall, as these ancient rulers were well aware.

Short comic, while I work on something bigger on the side. It is nevertheless a very important topic. A lot of seabirds die because they eat plastic. They feed their chicks with the waste. It’s really tragic.

Cold or Warm, Thorny or Soft

So my sister and I have some made up personality types we measure people through. You can be either warm or cold, and thorny or soft, so for example, someone can be cold and thorny, cold and soft, warm and thorny or warm and soft ; those are the 4 types we classify people in.

Now that that’s explained, I decided it would be fun to put each sign in one category.

For this post you should check your Sun, Moon and rising sign. Your Sun would be closer to how you truly are and percieve yourself to be, your Moon would point towards how you are when people know you better and how you behave towards those you care about, while your rising is more about how people percieve you and how you consciously make yourself appear as.

Really you could check any planet and it would talk about how you express those energies.

So first things first, I’ll explain each variable:

Cold: these people don’t get attached easily, they can be quite distant and reserved, not liking to be too close to people, especially those they don’t know well. They avoid showing their emotions to others and have a hard time expressing them, so they can be percieved as indifferent or inexpressive, they may be feeling enormously but from the outside seem emotionless to those who don’t know them well. Not necessarily rude, but distantly polite. Not very big on affection.

Warm: very expressive, even bubbly, they probably want people to feel comfortable and at home given their caring nature. Can get attached easily and have an outwardly loving nature. Their emotions can be seen all over their demeanor and they may share how they feel quite often. If they are shy, they may not be as overbearing as they appear in this description, but still have no qualms about expressing themselves when prompted by others. Very giving and affectionate nature.

Thorny: hard to get to know, they dislike interacting with people and can even be a bit hostile when you first meet them (and let’s be honest, afterwards as well). They show they care in a perhaps unconventional way, since they are not very good at sharing how they feel, so maybe they are more about actions than words. Trust issues wouldn’t strange with this type, so you have to earn it. They may feel easily stiffled when given affection, so handle with care and measure. Will physically fight anyone for their loved ones or protecting the underdog. Annoyed most of the time.

Soft: the sweet cinnamon roll archetype, they can trust others a bit too much, they open their hearts to those they care about and can even be a bot clingy at times. Will probably never hurt you on purpose and can often let people walk over them a bit because of their humble and understanding nature. While they do love affection, they may not actively seek it, since these people are prone to be pretty shy and quiet. Can worry a lot. Probably very moved by art and really creative souls.

Now, the signs:

Warm and Thorny: Aries, Gemini, Leo 

Very caring but can appear a bit hostile at first and be that way without realizing it at times. Easily become defensive when they feel threatened or hurt, doing and saying things they probably could’ve said much more gently or done differently. Will fight for what they believe is right and can be a bit aggressive and blunt at times. Care about everyone but not enough about anyone. Would help anyone in need but also could betray anyone if they can have something they want.

Cold and Soft: Taurus, Virgo, Libra 

People often feel drawn to these signs, mostly for their charm and class (taurus, libra), or their intelligence and simplicity (virgo). However, if you watch closely, you can see they never become too involved and always keep their distance emotionally speaking. They are people pleasers, and to please everyone you can’t care about anyone too much. They can try to make others feel comfortable, but mostly because they tend to absorb others emotions, so someone being uncomfortable around them can make them feel uncomfortable as well. Nevertheless, when they do care about someone they are affectionate, caring and, well, soft. They don’t care about someone easily, but when they do, their loved ones become their world. 

Cold and Thorny: Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius

Struggle getting close to people, for they value their freedom and alone time a lot. They show they care in their own way, which may not always be noticed by their loved ones. Can be a bit rough around the edges and hide their feelings and emotions in fear of being hurt or taken advantage of. Very hard to get to know, but very loyal once they care about you. Can be passive to injustice or insensitive to pain because they often mind their own bussiness a bit too much.

Prone to feeling lonely and misunderstood.

Warm and Soft: Cancer, Sagittarius, Pisces

Very caring, very gentle, very shy (except sagittarius, probably.) Can often live in their emotions, their hearts are too big for their own good. Easily hurt and unfortunately struggle hiding it. Struggle to let go of people, even after they’ve hurt them. Rich inner world and very moved by human emotion. Probably quite idealistic. Giving, generous and affectionate, understanding to an almost annoying degree and the best when it comes to comforting others.

Sagittarius is perhaps the one that lets go and becomes detached more easily.

reblog and make a wish! this was removed from tumbrl due to “violating one or more of Tumblr’s Community Guidelines”, but since my wish came true the first time, I’m putting it back. :)

Aries: Every morning you’re having coffee in a quiet corner of my mind.

Taurus: Love is the word I never know how to use. It's a metaphor, a verb, chaos, a canvas, but it's never mine.

Cancer: & though you drink to drown all of the people still inside of your chest, darling, I miss hearing the smile in your voice when you’re lying next to me in the dark.

Gemini: Are we just an echo or are we the beginning? the fog still walking along a sunrise that faded two chapters ago?

Leo: I want you. It’s that simple & that complicated.

Scorpio: Lost: I’m tired of doing life without you next to me.

Sagittarius: You can’t embrace what’s to come if you’re holding onto everything that’s been.

Virgo: Missing you is like trying to breathe underwater & tonight i'm sleeping on the ocean floor.

Libra: Whatever you don't say is what you cant stop hearing inside of you.

Capricorn: Yes my hands shake, but I promise my heart is as steady as the rain.

Aquarius: If you ever stop shining, I will make sure to love your darkness even more.

Pisces: You are that dream I know I can never have again but I’ll love always.

something about netflix castlevania felt really weird but oddly familiar in the way the story is medieval low fantasy and yet every character is not only speaking in a super modern way but constantly dunking on eachothers backstories, dropping f bombs with impunity, and going on 5 minute tangents on whether or not vampires really are killed by running water and I couldn’t put my finger on it until I realized they all talk like they’re players in a dnd campaign

People confused about how Fitzroy can sound like such a nerd and be a barbarian have obviously never watched that scene from the good place where Chidi takes his shirt of during an existential crisis only to reveal that the actor playing him is yoked as hell

You can hide a lot of things under a sweater vest

Just an FYI about Helluva Boss

Blitzo said the r word yes. He is in Hell. They literally dismembered a child a few minutes later. Vivziepop said a million times that she wanted to make a show where all the characters are B A D. Yes I understand some people will find it offensive, and I won’t judge them. However do not go around calling the show bad because of that, you shouldn’t have expected anything better considering the fact that they are literally in H E L L. Case closed.

🎃  Happy Halloween 🎃
