Hey, So I'm Studying To History Exam And I Had An Idea. Would You Like To Help Me Study By Giving Me

Hey, so I'm studying to history exam and I had an idea. Would you like to help me study by giving me random date/period and I'll respond with fun fact from Polish history. May or may not contain low effort doodles to explain some stuff. Length would depend on vibes and how much emotional attachment I have to event or person tbh. I have a lot of unorganized thoughts about Henri de Valois. Aggressive thoughts.

I just work better with short-term goals and when I have to search some info to share and not just to collect, you know?

We can turn it into world history class too, like "Hey, in 1776 USA gained independence, what were you Poles up to then?" (Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was losing its :))

Or "What were you doing in Taisho era?" (I have no idea, would have to check what time it was, but you get what I mean, right?)

You can also just share your own fun facts, that's always cool (please, I love learning about all the crazy things people were doing in the past)

Omg thank you so much for this explanation! You're a godsend.

I find it really interesting how popular feasts and weapons offerings at the grave were. Like, I know for sure that it was a thing for Eastern Slavs, I'm mostly sure it was present in Vikings culture, too... is it an Indo-European thing? It'd be so cool if it was

Phantom, the newest addition to the Justice League, pulls Wonder Woman aside.

He has...a strange request.

He's nervous, flustered, fading in and out of the visible spectrum. It's clear that what he's about to ask of her is important to him, and even though she has an uncomfortable voice in the back of her head telling her this young hero is about to ask her out, she resolves to listen before she jumps to conclusions.

She's glad she did.

"Can...can you put a grave for me in Themyscira? I know it's just for women, but it's the safest place I can think of for it! I just...I don't have a grave, and Clockwork says it's starting to stunt my growth as a Ghost, and I have too many enemies on American soil, so. It's okay if you say no, though, I'll figure something out, it's fine."

Diana lets him ramble to the end, already knowing what her answer is going to be.

"We would be honored to host your grave, Phantom. Do you have any remains I can take home? Do you require a funeral service?"

Phantom looks...he looks beyond grateful. Close to tears.

"No, no remains. A symbolic grave is fine, it just. It has to have my real name on it, my mortal one." He says, looking hesitant. "Please don't reach out to my family, Wonder Woman. They don't know."

With that, he hands over a small slip of paper, torn from a notebook and clearly folded one too many times.

She takes it as though he were entrusting her with the rarest diamond in the world. She wants to, but she does not ask how they could not notice the death of someone so very bright.

Instead she nods, tucking the paper away.

Phantom will get a grand grave, one worthy of a friend to the Crown of Themyscira. She will ensure it.

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.

Hey, beta readers and writers of tumblr, I have a question

How long does it take to beta read a thing? Approximately 13 000 words one-shot (dpxdc gen fanfic)(haven't finished it, so I'm low-key guessing it may grow a bit). I'm curious because I wanted to post my next work on a specific date, and I wanted to make it special and had it checked by an actual person and not Grammarly, and I need to know if I have time for it, hah

Also, if someone would be interested in beta reading it, I'll platonically kiss you (or hug, or like, draw something for you, I'm flexible in a ways of showing gratitude)
