GAME OF THRONES 90s ERA
(Jon Snow and Joffrey Baratheon)
What “Game of Thrones” would have looked like if the action had been set in the 90s?
What if swords, bows, spears and armors had been replaced with some NES guns, bats and tracksuits?
This is a fun project i ve been recently starting, imagining all the characters fighting for the throne in a 90s grunge/gangsta era.Working now on Daenerys. More characters coming soon….

Sophia Brahe (1556-1643)
Art by Carolyn Bernhard (website, tumblr)
Tycho Brahe was one of the most important astronomers of the sixteenth century. The last major astronomer to work without the aid of a telescope, Tycho built his own instruments to track the movements of celestial bodies. His work paved the way for Johannes Kepler’s laws of planetary motion.
Tycho’s younger sister Sophia assisted him in his scientific observations. Their family was part of Denmark’s high nobility and although the Brahe children were well educated, their parents did not consider science an appropriate field for people of rank. Nevertheless, Sophia taught herself astronomy and as a teenager helped her brother observe a lunar eclipse. Throughout their lives, Tycho and Sophia maintained a close correspondence.
Sophia also studied alchemy, horticulture, and chemistry, but her most lasting individual work is her genealogy of Danish noble families. Published in 1626, it remains an important source for Danish historians today.

Quote reblogged fromReligious beliefs are no different than other ideas and do not deserve special immunity from criticism. The fact that they have received immunity in the past has been a major source of problems for way too long. We would not be dealing with half of the religious harm we do currently if more people realized this—and spoke against them. There is no idea that inherently deserves ‘unquestioned respect’ or is ‘off-limits’ to critique and criticism. Any idea for which this immunity is demanded is very likely irrational, dangerous, and unsupported by evidence.
