Too busy loving my OTP

Elizabeth Báthory is one of the most prolific serial killers in all of history.

She was born into nobility and was highly educated but also very vain.

One day, infuriated, Elizabeth struck one of her servant girls so hard that some blood dripped from her face onto Elizabeth’s hand and she immediately thought that her skin took on a glowing freshness of her young maid.

Elizabeth believed she had found the secret of eternal youth. After this, women were abducted and hung upside down, while they were still alive and their throats were slit to prepare Elizabeth’s bath.

The Countess of Transylvania and four collaborators were accused of torturing and killing hundreds of girls, with one witness attributing to them over 650 victims, though the number for which they were convicted was 80. Elizabeth herself was neither tried nor convicted.

Can I just time in here and say a few things, since half of what is written here is straight from the wikipedia page, which don’t get me wrong —it’s accurate— but extremely underwhelming.

“Elizabeth” Erzebet Bathory was so much more than some vain bitch who killed over 650 women, she was a vain bitch who could speak and write more than two languages, in a time where a woman writing one was unheard of. She was raised mostly by her very infamous openly bisexual aunt, and was a torturer and a murderer before she was 14 (rumored).

This woman was the person who made the villagers quake in both fear and revelation, that the courts refused to take action against when young girls started dissapearing, when bodies started being found. She OWNED the country, her family was richer then even the Lords presiding over it, she had all the say.

Her and her ‘accomplices” (which by the way, they were extremely trusted, and unlike her, they were executed without mercy when the truth came out), would gather village children who their parents practically threw their way in hopes of a better future, although the children would never live again. She didn’t only hang them, she caged them, used iron maidens, spears, so many different objects. And the whole ‘bathing in blood’ thing, although is technically can be true, that and the whole striking her maid is all exagerrated to add to the story. Her and her husband got off to killing, literally, they liked the screams. If she bathed in blood, it wasn’t to be younger, it was to enjoy their life ending. Not to say she wasn’t vain, but for good reason. She was considered the most beautiful woman in Hungary for all of her days.

And she technically was tried, although as I said before she practically owned the country, they couldn’t actually kill her. But she had killed another young girl of noble blood, and that couldn’t just be set aside. So instead of execution, they sentenced her to house arrest for the rest of her days, unable to punish her for all the women she had killed.

Also, she had three children, and regardless of her murderous ways it was said that she had been a wonderful, loving mother. Strange how the ‘vain blood mistress’ can be more than just, isn’t it?

I could go on and on about this woman, I’ve read and watched basically everything pertaining to her due to reports and essays that I wrote when I was younger, and even though she was a horrifying murderer, she deserves a bit more than ‘blood bitch’.

Dear Disney, Fuck You. Love, Merida’s Fans

A Mighty Girl has started a petition to ask Disney to stop trashing Merida. Now, I’m not the greatest fan of Brave, as I blogged here, but I cannot believe Disney is turning their first real female character into another cookie cutter pastiche of femininity.

Help Abbie,
she’s a little 6 year old girl who is sick. She suffers with an immune disease and will have to get infusions every 3 weeks for the rest of her life.

Her favourite person is Zayn Malik, and would love for him to visit her while she is in hospital.

Of course, being in the biggest boy and in the world means that Zayn is very very busy and probably doesn’t have time in his Schedule to travel to meet Abbie, so here is where ALL One Direction fans come in handy:

on Twitter hundreds and thousands of fans are coming together to tweet the hash tag #ZaynMeetAbbie ..the aim of this is for the hash tag to become so popular so it trends worldwide, getting the attention of many people. I’m trying my very hardest to get someone working for who has relations to one Direction to notice this sick little girl and to make her dream come true.

my aim is to make the hash tag #ZaynMeetAbbie so popular Abbie is able to meet Zayn backstage or something when he is touring near her during the US leg of the tour.

All I’m asking is for you to take 30 seconds of your time to tweet the hash tag #ZaynMeetAbbie on Twitter and to spread the message for this little girl.

Please, let One Direction fans do good for a change a tweet #ZaynMeetAbbie and make her dream come true.

Thanks x
