top five songs
YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME.
1. Runs in the Family by Amanda Palmer
My friend has problems with winter and autumn / they give him prescriptions / they shine bright lights on him
2. I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
But a man never got a woman back / not by begging on his knees / or I'd crawl to you baby / and I'd fall at your feet
3. Icarus by Jason Webley and/or Amanda Palmer
I wake up every morning to the sound of motors roaring / they are drowning out the voices in my head
4. No Children by Mountain Goats
I hope that our few remaining friends / give up on trying to save us / I hope we come up with a fool-proof plot / to piss off the dumb few that forgave us

top five historical figures
1. T. E. Lawrence.
I am using this post to blatantly wax retarded and fangirly about dead white dudes of ambiguous sexuality, and if you don't like that you can familiarise yourself with the left-hand exit proceedure, bitches. T. E. Lawrence was the DADDY and a fascinating human made of fail and awesome and SERIOUS BRAINZ.
2. Richard Francis Burton.
Dude clearly has issues. Mentioning him will cause a hatestorm. I literally do not care. LITERALLY.
3. Alexander the Great.
Okay, "ambiguous sexuality" may be pushing it here. Dude was probably a massive homo.
4. Lady Emma Hamilton.
Not a dead white dude, a dead white lady who fucked her way to the top and then kept two very powerful men as lovers and was just generally made of kick and ass. And was also apparently fat. :)
5. Queen Elizabeth the First
Another dead white lady who was smart and manipulative and good at image management and made men dress sexylike to get her attention. An era of the female gaze. Hurrah!
