The end, not only of his studying for today, but of his studying altogether, unless he did something in his own defense.

Anna Vyrubova’s nieces (children of sister Alya Vyrubova), Tatiana “Tanichka”, Olga, and Alexandra + Olga with Tanichka(?)
“Then we went to Anya's where we bathed and put to bed her three nieces, Alya’s daughters. Tatiana (the eldest, my goddaughter), Olga and Alexandra.”
— Diary entry of Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna, 24th July 1914
(ps. I’m not sure if the third photo is of Tanichka because I saw it labeled as a “small friend” but it looks like Tanichka so pls comment what you think and feel free to correct me!)

Finding the First Gay Kiss - Diary of a Big Ole Gay 11.17.22
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A Florida Enchantment (1914) dir. Sidney Drew
I've Already given this a more detailed discussion on my Letterboxd so I won't get into the more pernicious aspects of this film. (as I saw this you can notice one of the characters in blackface in the background like a racist It Follows).
You may be looking at this film and being like but Ryeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen look it theres two women kissing thats gay. But theirin lies the rub. In A Florida Enchantment, Lillian Tavers finds some magic african seeds that let you pull a gender bend and she just takes one for shits and giggles I guess, (I mean I think it was to get back at her fiance but thats kinda weak.
Tumblr media
(we totally believe that you just wanted to gender bend to get back at a man that you don't even talk to for half of the movie. totally not because your actually super hecking trans and wanted an excuse to captilize on this anime plot. )
So yeah in my reading of this film thats some straights sorry if you can't handle Lawrence Talbot serving fish while hes girl modding then um thats on you.
Tumblr media
(when you fake your own death just so that you can present as the opposite gender and go by your new masculine name and pronouns #justgirlythings #stillcisthrough)
So this kinda runs a rankle through it because while these women are totally fucking sapphos. They were trying to get that P and go. Its Kinda Misgendering to present this as the first gay kiss when this shit is objectively about a straight trans man.
At the end of the day I am happy to hear your interpretations but this doesn't solve the question for me.

Zapatas Gang (1914) dir. Urban Gad
oh what your not famalier with the beautiful and radiant Asta Nielsen the worlds first international superstar, whose films were considered to demi-monde by American Censors to be allowed over here????
Well sorry but that sounds like a you problem. Trust me this butch queen is coming back to visit in this blog series.
In Zapatas Gang a german film crew go to the beautiful countryside of norditalien. *cough* Northern Italy to play a bunch of robber barons. Unbeknownst to them the actually crew of Bandits, The eponymous Gang Alla Zapata, have come over and stolen there work clothes.... for some reason. Don't worry about it just enjoy Asta Nielson looking like a bisexual pirate for 45 minutes
Tumblr media
(said bisexual pirate outfit, somebody please dress like this for halloween)
In this film during a scene the "bandits" attack a stagecouch which they believe to be paid extras. they were not in fact paid extras but unpaid civilians and also like rich people or something. At this interchange Asta stops one of her ruffians from attacking the young coquette that was driving with her mother on an evening constantional before stealing a cheeky little kiss like the Rapscallion she is and OMG ITS LIKE SO FUCKING GAY.
Tumblr media
(mommy? sorry Mommy? sorry. but like for real women with swords who like just defeat you in physical combat. 😳😳🥵🥵🥵)
also just saying these emojis are absolutely not slutty enough on tumblr. do better.
But um yeah like this is it these are lesbians kissing???
ok. ok. so the Coquette refers to asta as "Her Handsome Theif" and you could argue that Asta is dressed as a man in this film so its possible that the Coquette thinks that Asta is a man in this sense but I mean c'mon!
Tumblr media
(we totally believe you that you thought this person was a man because of pants. You totally didn't feel a titty when you were feeling her up earlier. Totally not your latent bisexual and danger kink rearing its head)
I love this, I'm gay for it, I'm adding Asta Nielsen to my pantheon of strong powerful bisexual women that I want to STEP ON ME.
Tumblr media
(I was trying to find the animation were they say Big lady a bunch but this will do)
But Don't worry I'm not gonna stop exploring this subject until we get to Sunday Bloody Sunday because like I'm having fun I wake up and the world gets a little more gayer and I feel a little more scene and isn't that kinda beautiful???

"I never wish to be easily defined. I'd rather float over other people's minds as something strictly fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person."

“…We drank tea in the balcony, then we rocked in the hammock. It is hanging on two trees behind the path in front of the balcony. The trees there are very strong.”
