What if the fairy tales were swapped? Princess Talia casts a spell to escape a curse but ends up in an enchanted castle with a village beauty asleep in her place. With the help of the castle keeper, she must escape before the switch becomes permanent. #APIPit #YA #OWN #LGBT #IMM

friendly reminder that most of your favs came from persian stories, including rapunzel, romeo and juliet, and more
Replying to @PU7AMADRE @T4M4NNA
the story of rapunzel was actually taken from shahnameh, a persian epic; rapunzel was adapted from a woman called rudaba in the persian epic who was known for her super long hair

Nothing ruins my day quite like seeing content like this on my feed. White people, exploiting the colorism in the PH is not the flex you think it is. These beauty standards exist bc your ancestors brutally colonized & stole from our people. Stfu.

Air quality in New York City continues to worsen amid smoke from Canadian wildfires, ground stops issued at LaGuardia and Newark Airports. Do not go outside if you can avoid it. #smoke #AirQualityAlert #NYC #CanadianWildfires

Dangerous air continues in parts of the NE, as a thick plume of #smoke has moved into #NYC (looking like Mars) with vis as low as a 1/2 mile at Newark. With over 400 fires in western Canada and no significant rain forecast, expect this to continue daily BASED on wind direction. – at Marietta, GA

Today’s ceremony is designed to bolster unjustifiable inequitable royal power with a violent racist history, through appeals to religion, pomp and tradition. As a historian of coronation I will be watching and commenting, as a point of historical enquiry and with this in mind.
